Seeing how I own/Owned Most of these game I dont see why we should not be getting them for Free. I really think 100 Wii pionts should come with any Wii accessories and games that would be cool seeing how I need to go and get 3 more Classic Contollers, 3 More Nunchucks and 2 more Wii remotes and Im going to get Wii Play this month so thats 900 Wiipionts I would be getting it would be nice seeing how I want to get Mario Kart when it comes out.

It's because you paid for a version for a different console, to make it work on the wii they've had to spend developer man hours to get it working, so I don't begrudge them that even if the price is a little high.
You're paying for the convenience of playing it on the wii, you're not paying for the game.
It's obviously not that hard seeing that there are emulators and ROMs for free.Originally Posted by Canumbler
You just proved you are not a programmer...
Those emulators have gotten to the point they are over a DECADE of volunteer hobbyists working in their spare time, if you were to convert that to man-hours it would be a significant cost.
As well as this, those emulators run on standardised PC hardware/OS, and therefore half of the stuff is already written (Operating systems do a LOT of work), whereas the wii is proprietary software and hardware and therefore the virtual console is a hell of a lot bigger than any emulator you've ever seen.
Oh, and chuck in the VC is emulating multiple platforms, so multiply by three.
As well as that, they are hosting the VC downloads etc and provide support for them via updates.
I do think the games are overpriced, but your impression of how much effort is put into VC is just insanely simplistic.

That was fu<king stupidOriginally Posted by acphydro
Most of its point exactly. You can go on and on about things on most of these forums. When you end up where you started you realize that its pointless to keep trying to make people understand.Originally Posted by SamuS
I'm not implying anything, after reading your post it appeared as if the subject confused you and I was merely trying to shed some light on the subject for you. If you weren't confused, then sorry.Originally Posted by StepOnfrog
"Implying that you are soooo full of knowledge really doesn't make you look any more intelligent, or important (even with lengthy sentences full of ripe language that tend to lack here and there as though you've forgotten to keep the act up, or something)"
I could hereby propose the same statement to you or about you regarding your posts.
"I won't waste my time on you... But be assured, if you wan't to continue implying negative things about me..."
They always say opposites attract dont they? Perhaps this is why you feel this way and continue to ramble on. I'm not trying to imply negative things about you, thats just how you are taking them. That's a downfall of a computer based forum. You can't see the face of the one doing the talking and as such you can misinterpret many things about what is being said, because in this world many people talk with emotion and with the lack of being able to see that emotion things can become confusing for some. If I think you are [stupid], [unintelligent], a [moron] then I will say so without trying to imply it. There isn't anything you could ever do about it anyway.
"I know exactly how, and why you write the way you do, I have no need to back myself up."
That my friend is good. Maybe by now you have realized that I am overly sarcastic in general.
"But, as for the theft = rape [Extreme] analogy, can you really not see that YOU CANNOT STEAL SEX. Rape is the act itself - forceful unagreed sex (to put it bluntly). You state Stealing is equal to Rape, uh? How and why you asked.... Oh, how I laughed... I can guarantee others did too, after being disgusted."
I laughed probably as hard as you did when I was writing it. But could you consider the possibility that if you rape someone that you ARE stealing something from them? You seem intelligent enough to come up with arguments, so how hard is it for you to see that you may or may not be stealing something from someone if you rape them? This is obviously a touchy subject for you and 1-2 others so I'll leave it at that.
"Re-arranging your statement in that you have no NEED to hack a VC game, when in fact you had originally stated that you were going to keep hacking *a VC game* until you cracked it.... pffft!"
I never stated that I was going to keep hacking a VC game until I cracked it.
Just as you don't know me I don't know you, but from reading your posts I can gather that you tend to take matters too personal at least from the forum's point of view. Maybe you are trying to imply false threats as well now, I really don't know nor do I really care but its what it looks like. Anyhow I can be one to admit things. I can understand your view on the rape post, its not my fault that you can't comprehend my side of the post or what was supposed to be gathered from it, although I've already told you. I, too am starting to feel as if this is wasting time, at least with you. Because if you really can't comprehend what is being said there is no need to go on about it. This isn't implying anything you have proven this to be true at least from your own point of view.

The US(C) Army All American Bowl
By Kyle Bunch ,
Use your ← → (arrow) keys to browse more stories
More than a year before they're set to graduate their respective high schools and join the Trojan team, five future USC football stars will get an early chance to take the field together. Call it practice for the years to come. As according to Rivals, five USC commits are now on the West's roster for the 2009 US Army All-American Bowl, which showcases the nation's top high-school talent. The to-be-Trojans will include 5-star linebacker Votanze Burfict, receiver Randall Carroll (4-stars), athlete Patrick Hall (4) and safeties Chris Metcalf(4) and T.J. McDonald(4). An exciting prospect to see, Fresno Edison's McDonald said he is working on getting all the Trojan commitments together for their official U.S. Army jersey presentation ceremony. "It'd be really cool to do it all together...We thought since we were going to be teammates in the future and teammates in the game, that we should do it all as a team." The game is scheduled for January 3rd, 2009. And the "SC Boys" are pumped to win back the title for the West. *Thanks Amy

In recent years public school health service has been given new impetus. This is, in part, the result of the studies and recommendations of such interested groups as the Joint Committee on Health Problems in Education of the National Education Association and the American Medical Association,1 the Committee on School Health of the American Academy of Pediatrics2 and the School Health Policies Committee.3
Administrators of public school health services throughout the country have been encouraged by such authoritative reports to improve the school medical examination and to give closer attention to the health educational opportunities of the school health service.
The problem of communicable disease, on the other hand, although usually considered by school health committees, has not received the critical medical appraisal enjoyed by some other aspects of the health program. Procedures and policies have changed little from the time when physicians first began to visit

About Freakwater
Despite their alternative rock pedigree and their home on a label better known for experimental music, Freakwater was one of the most traditionally grounded bands on the alternative country scene. Singers/guitarists/songwriters Janet Beveridge Bean and Catherine Ann Irwin mix original material (with a contemporary lyrical perspective) and traditional covers, all done in a spare, acoustic country-folk style with close vocal harmonies. Their instrumentation often features string band staples like steel guitar, fiddle, mandolin, and Dobro, and the strong Appalachian overtones that result have often drawn the duo comparisons to the Carter Family. Freakwater originally formed in Louisville, Kentucky, as an informal partnership; Irwin and Bean had played in local punk bands, became roommates in 1982, and first performed together publicly the year afterward. Meanwhile, Bean co-founded the noisy, Neil Young-influenced alt-rock band Eleventh Dream Day with boyfriend and future husband Rick Rizzo serving as the group's drummer; they soon moved to Chicago, and spent the late '80s and early '90s crafting a series of underappreciated, critically acclaimed albums. Bean and Irwin continued to perform together, however, on an informal basis, and in 1988 were approached by Amoeba label head Keith Holland about recording.
Choosing the name Freakwater -- a term for moonshine -- the duo cut a self-titled, EP-length record, which was released by Amoeba in 1989 (a year before Uncle Tupelo's seminal No Depression kick-started the alt-country movement). Upright bassist David Gay became the anchor of the duo's instrumental support team and remained with the group for the next decade. Their first true full-length, Dancing Under Water, was completed in 1991, but disagreements with Holland led to Amoeba seizing control of the masters and denying the duo any royalties. With Bean still heavily involved in Eleventh Dream Day, Freakwater completed Feels Like the Third Time in 1993, and finally found a home on the Thrill Jockey label, an independent more noted for its avant-garde, often electronic artist roster. Thrill Jockey finally released Feels Like the Third Time in 1995, the same year of the group's critical breakthrough, Old Paint. Benefiting from increased attention due to Eleventh Dream Day's hiatus, Old Paint led many critics to hail Freakwater as one of the best, most authentic-sounding alt-country artists around. They were offered a deal with Steve Earle's Warner-associated label, but ultimately turned it down to remain with Thrill Jockey.
Bean and Irwin consolidated their reputation on 1998's Springtime, which featured multi-instrumentalist Max Johnston of Wilco lending support. Sessions for 1999's End Time were reportedly difficult, but the record was yet another acclaimed outing, and featured all original material for the first time. It also saw the band expanding its sound with additional instrumentation and even a drum kit. Freakwater remained quiet for a few years, and 2002 found both Bean and Irwin working on solo albums for Thrill Jockey. Irwin's Cut Yourself a Switch appeared in late 2002, while Bean and her backing band, the Concertina Wire, issued Dragging Wonder Lake in early 2003. In 2005, Freakwater reconvened with producer Tim Rutili and members of Califone to release Thinking of You, continuing with the new group sound introduced on End Time.
After the release of Thinking of You, Bean and Irwin both pursued low-key solo careers, while Bean continued to record and perform with Eleventh Dream Day. In 2012, Thrill Jockey reissued Feels Like the Third Time, and Bean and Irwin celebrated with a reunion tour that found their sweet and sour harmonies were as effective as ever. Following more live dates, Freakwater struck a deal with respected "insurgent country" label Bloodshot Records, and in February 2016 the group brought out its first album in over a decade, Scheherazade. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

NEVER TRUST a skinny chef. Nor one with a spotless apron.
I trust Walter Staib, built like a Black Forest barrel with a winter-frost Vandyke. In a world crawling with skinny chefs, Iron Chefs and nuisance chefs, give me Walter.
"I don't have tattoos, I haven't been in jail, I'm an ordinary guy," he says.
This ordinary guy has published six cookbooks, his PBS "A Taste of History" series snagged four Emmys in five seasons, he's a mega-consultant who has launched 650 restaurants around the globe. Right now he is celebrating his 20th year as proprietor of the "historic" City Tavern restaurant at 2nd and Walnut streets. I use quote marks around "historic" because the building isn't as old as the 68-year-old chef.

Glamorgan have agreed new contracts with five homegrown players. Batsmen Ben Wright, Will Bragg and David Lloyd have all agreed two-year deals, as have off-spinner Andrew Salter and all-rounder Ruaidhri Smith.
Hugh Morris, who takes on the dual role of chief executive and director of cricket at his old county when he leaves his post with England in the new year, said: "Following the recent good news that senior pros in Mark Wallace and Dean Cosker have committed to the club, it's good to see promising young talent from both north and south Wales extending their playing careers with Glamorgan and continuing to fly the flag for Wales.
"I believe the key for our sustained success is to develop our own talent such as players like these. I was very lucky to play in a Glamorgan side, the spine of which was Welsh, and this is something which I will be focusing on developing with our new head coach and the rest of the coaching staff."
Meanwhile academy players Aneurin Donald, Kieran Bull and Jack Murphy have been offered of development contracts.

To the Editor.—
In the October 1983, issue of the Archives, several articles were published that directly or indirectly addressed the relationship between anxiety disorders and major depression. At first glance, the reports appear to be contradictory. The studies by Crowe et al and Harris et al (Iowa studies)12 found that major depression did not aggregate in the relatives of patients with panic as compared with control subjects. The study by Leckman et al (Yale study)3 found that major depression did aggregate in the relatives of patients with major depression and panic disorder compared with normal control subjects and depressed patients without an anxiety disorder.These discrepancies may be due to méthodologie, rather than real, differences. The méthodologie differences that stand out include the following.1. The selection of probands included primary depressives in the Yale study, V patients with chronologically primary anxiety disorders in the Iowa studies.

"I put a PS3 disc in it and the Wii wouldn't read it. WTF is this world coming to? If I buy a video game console, it better take and kind of media I want. Even if I were to dust off some of my vinyl LPs, the bastard better work."
Not exactly elegant, but yes, this works. I just got rid of our cats because they chewed through the cord, and I fixed it up myself.Originally Posted by Bigred
You can do this repair without solder. Cut the chewed part of the wire out. Strip about an inch of the sheath off of the newly cut ends. There are two wires, and you need to burn the color off of them. That's right, burn it off with a lighter, otherwise you won't be able to splice them. Don't burn all of the exposed inch, just enough to be able to twist things back together. Once twisted, use some electrical tape or the like to keep things from shorting, and there you go.
I did it, I hated to do it, but it is much cheaper than buying a new sensor bar and it works just as well as it did before...with less excess cord now!

Step one is to speak to the family about their intentions for the property. Sometimes, other family members have emotional or nostalgic reasons to want to keep the home. They would be entitled to maintain the mortgage or seek some arrangement first.
Next, if they want the house to be liquidated, the bank would require the home be listed by an agent to draw in the highest possible offer before they would approve a short sale. Their obligation is to take the smallest loss possible and the only sure way to determine this is to get the home on the market at a reasonable price.
If you are willing to pay enough to clear the mortgage, then the estate may be willing to work with you directly and the bank wouldn't have any say in the matter. Your offer may have to be the full remaining loan balance plus all the seller's closing costs. If the property won't appraise for this you'll need bring in additional cash beyond your down payment and closing costs to make up the difference.
I hope this was helpful.
At this point, I believe the seller needs to go to the bank and get their options. Each bank is different. If you are dealing directly with the seller, you should at least have an attorney handle the transaction.

"We don't believe the decision is as bad as it seems at first glance," he said. He noted that CenturyLink is set to start paying cash taxes in 2015, and that it would have had to reduce its payouts at that point in any case. Doing it early takes some potential for speculation out of the stock, he said.
Ok this makes sence now. But why not let the share holders know about this decision in advance. Was CTL management thinking that if they let us know early, that investors would of sold this stock off? Double edged sword.
of course it would have sold off and probably just as much .. they obviously did this to get the share price down so they can take $ out of our pockets and put it in theirs .. 1 1/2 yrs. of going up all taken away in a few hrs. they can kill my a.s .. i bought at 32 so my entire gain was wiped out .. im #$%$ but if i had been buying this yr. , id be ready to bash some heads ..
He noted that CenturyLink is set to start paying cash taxes in 2015, and that it would have had to reduce its payouts at that point in any case
And From ML: We view CTL as an attractive combination of: 1) a team that sets and beat
conservative targets, 2) nearing a positive growth inflection, 3) and a healthy yield
of 7% from 58%/54%/63% FCF payouts in 13/14/15. Assuming the $36 aftermarket
trading price, CTL will offer a 6% yield on 46%/43%/50% payouts, which
despite the dividend cut we view as an attractive yield and reiterate our Buy
rating. We expect choppy trading and negative sentiment to hover over the name
for some time, but assessing the story CTL will become after tomorrow, we are
not knee-jerk downgrading at this juncture.
Sentiment: Buy
Good summery
Nice post

Wyndcliffe Court Sculpture Gardens to Close in September.
After four very successful years Wyndcliffe Court Sculpture Garden will be closing its doors to the public at the end of September. Artists Christine Baxter and Alex Brown who set up the sculpture garden when they began renting the house and garden in 2013 have been unable to agree mutually acceptable terms with the letting agents Elstons who act on behalf of the family trust which owns Wyndcliffe Court. view full announcement
Wyndcliffe Court Gardens are Grade II listed and designed in the Arts and Crafts style. Situated along the Wye Valley between Chepstow and Tintern, they are beautiful formal gardens with views to the south and east. Open every weekend from Easter to September, the gardens showcase contemporary sculptures by local and well-known British artists. Two sculpture shows will run consecutively, each collection featuring hundreds of sculptures to suit all tastes in a wide variety of mediums, sizes and styles offering the opportunity to view and purchase beautiful sculpture with an outstanding backdrop.
The sculpture gardens have recently been featured in the Daily Telegraph's 'One of the ten best places to see garden sculpture this summer' and also in The Guardian's 'Top Ten Secret Gardens in the UK'.
Our Facebook and Twitter pages are regularly updated with news and events including photographs of the gardens at different times and cakes available in our tea room.
The gardens at Wyndcliffe Court were designed by H. Avray Tipping, friend of Gertrude Jekyll and Editor of Country Life magazine. Completed in 1922, they are probably the best example of their type in Wales. Designed in a series of formal spaces or "rooms" they feature sculpted topiary, a sunken garden, a summerhouse, walled gardens, fountains, lily ponds and a bowling lawn leading on to wooded walks. They are worth a visit in their own right, but also make a wonderful setting for our garden sculpture shows "Elegance and Form". For more information on the history of Wyndcliffe Court and its gardens please see the Wyndcliffe Court page.
Wyndcliffe Court Gardens are 5 minutes from Chepstow and Tintern Abbey, nestled in the hills above the Wye Valley to the north of the village of St. Arvans. Situated on a high bluff, the house and gardens offer views over the Severn, the coastal plain and the Bristol Channel. Only 500 meters from the Wye Valley Walk Wyndcliffe Court is less than 20 minutes from Newport, 30 minutes from Bristol and Cardiff, 40 from Gloucester and around 2 hours from London, There are excellent public transport links. For directions or to get in touch, please see our Contact & Directions page, and for opening times and all other information see our Visiting Us page.
Our tea room serves tea, coffee, cakes, lunches and afternoon teas and light refreshments with seating in the Ballroom and on our terrace and loggia. Food and drinks are served in vintage bone china on linen tablecloths.
Since opening our gates for the first time in May 2013, we have had an overwhelming response from the press and public and are incredibly proud of our achievements. For reviews from some of our visitors please go to our Trip Advisor page.
From 1st July - 25th September the Sculpture Gardens and tea rooms are open 11am - 6pm Wednesday to Sunday, including Bank Holiday Monday

El Mirage Officials Want $8.5 Million Bond to Pass, No Matter What the Cost
As communities across Arizona -- across the country -- are desperately trying to attract new businesses and corporations to boost local economies, El Mirage is creating a headache for the city's only gas station.
We recently wrote about El Mirage city officials yanking their business from the Shell gas station on El Mirage and Cactus roads because the store owner is opposed to their proposed property tax increase.
A boycott apparently wasn't enough to suit city officials. They dispatched cops when a business owner took down political signs placed on his property.
Over the weekend, political signs in support of a $8.5 million bond election (which will increase property taxes) went up along El Mirage Road, right next to the Shell gas station owned by Joe David.

David, who owns about 9 acres of land on that corner, pulled them down on Monday afternoon.
On Tuesday morning, two marked patrol cars from the El Mirage Police Department, arrived at David's station and questioned the station manager as to the whereabout of the signs.
One of the police officers asked the store manager to get David, who wasn't at the gas station, on the phone.
"They asked me where the signs were, and I told them I took them down. They didn't ask for my permission," he tells New Times. "I told them that I put them in the dumpster where they belong."
It wasn't long before Laurie Carnal and her husband showed up at the gas station. Carnal is the chairman of "Committee for Yes on Question 1," the political action committee that paid for the signs.
The signs came out of the dumpster.
But it wasn't over just yet.
On Wednesday, Lance Calvert, the city's engineer, arrived at the gas station to talk to David about the right-of-way -- a strip of public land in which the political signs could be placed.
But David wasn't there.
Calvert showed up again this morning, this time with Jorge Gastelum, an assistant city engineer, looking for David. Again, he wasn't at his store.
"You've gotta be kidding me," David says. "They've got a lot of time on their hands."
Now, the signs are back up.
Calvert tells New Times that he just dropped off his card "to touch base with" David.
"There was a question about the right-of-way lines," he says. "But campaign signs? I'd run those questions through the City Manager's Office. I don't know any of the details, I was just asked to stop by."
Repeat visits by police and city officials? Over a couple political signs?
It might seem a little over the top, but not surprising considering that El Mirage Mayor Lana Mook is part of the political action committee supporting the $8.5 million bond that will pay for part of a YMCA and a new station for the El Mirage Police Department.
Suffice to say that city officials want this bond to pass. Badly.
How bad?
First, the over-enthusiastic El Mirage City Council violated Open Meeting Laws on July 14 when its members got together after a meeting and signed a letter in support of the bond. All of them, except Councilman Jim McPhetres signed the letter.
Apparently pointed out the violation, and the elected officials had a do-over, this time putting their intention to sign the letter on the August 25 agenda.
State law prohibits a majority of elected officials getting together to discuss or act on city business unless the public is given at least 24 hour notice.
They did it over, according to the agenda, "to demonstrate the Council's desire for transparency ..."
Second, some person/group created a website (El Mirage Vote Yes) touting the benefits of the bond, complete with quotes from all but one of the elected officials about why residents should vote yes. McPhetres voted against taking the measure to voters.
But there are none of the obligatory "paid for by" disclaimers on the website.
State law requires that a political committee that spends money on "any literature or advertisement to support or oppose a ballot proposition ... shall ... include on the literature or advertisement the words 'paid for by', followed by the name of the committee that appears on its statement of organization."
The public deserves to know who is bankrolling efforts to push the bond through.
Also, the El Mirage City Council voted on August 25 to give every single employee a week of paid vacation. It came through a vote in which they decided to shut down the city from December 27 through December 30 -- and still pay employees as though they were on the job.
For police officers, firefighters and other essential personnel who have to be at work, well, they also get the same amount of extra days off they can bank and take throughout the year.
That might simply seem like a nice gesture given that City Manager Spencer Isom told elected officials that he was proposing the paid-time off in lieu of pay raises.
But as they say, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
A few weeks after that, on September 29, the El Mirage City Council voted to repeal a city law that prohibits El Mirage employees from getting involved in municipal elections. The repeal conveniently comes in time for all city workers to go forth and preach their support for the $8.5 million bond election on November 8.
It all smack of improper influence
Neither El Mirage Assistant City Manager Bill Pupo and Sgt. Robert Peoples, a spokesman for the El Mirage Police Department, have yet returned New Times calls for comment.

A teacher at James T. Alton Middle School in Vine Grove has been terminated from his position after alleged inappropriate communications with a student surfaced Monday.
Hardin County Schools spokesman John Wright said parents of JTA students were notified about the situation through the district's One Call System on Monday.
The case is under investigation by the Radcliff Police Department.
See Wednesday's print edition for additional details on the story.
A Vine Grove woman and out-of-state man were injured Sunday morning in a single-vehicle wreck and police say alcohol was a factor.
A year ago, Kayla Russell had dreams of attending the University of Louisville and starting a path to becoming a lawyer.
Chris Doss and his girlfriend, Michaela Black, talked of a future together. So did Cristen Carver and her boyfriend, Aaron Bradford, as they attempted to stabilize their relationship.
They all were teen parents with different living conditions and aspirations.
A local teenager battling cancer will undergo a procedure next month that may add years to his life.
Andrew Holland, 16, has agreed to undergo a transplant of stem cells previously harvested from his bone marrow. The procedure is scheduled for May 13 in Louisville, according to Holland's family.
Testing will be allowed on a hair entered as evidence in a murder case against a former Radcliff resident.
Judge Jack Seay in LaRue Circuit Court approved a motion during a hearing Monday afternoon to test the evidence using more advanced technology in the case against Abdullah R. White, 36, and Samantha J. Kolley, 20, of Eastview.
A Radcliff man treated for a gunshot injury Sunday night at Hardin Memorial Hospital told police another individual fired at him, but investigators found no evidence of a shooter.
Maurice C. Green sustained a gunshot wound to his leg, said Bryce Shumate, spokesman for Radcliff Police Department. Shumate said Green has been released from the hospital.
The third year of Paint the Town Purple will allow more room for creativity, organizers said.
The event invites businesses, organizations and individuals to decorate area buildings and streets with purple bows, fabric, lights and any other material available to show support for Relay for Life.
To accommodate commuters, the Transportation Cabinet has modified tonight's scheduled closure of a section of the U.S. 31W Bypass in Elizabethtown.
The road will be closed in both directions as a portion of the concrete structure is set overhead for the new overpass on Ky. 361. Traffic will not be allowed to enter the bypass from North Dixie Avenue and northbound traffic will be blocked at St. John Road.
Elizabethtown Tourism & Convention Bureau has redesigned a mobile application officials believe will help visitors as they navigate the city.
In partnership with Discover Anywhere Mobile, the tourism board has launched an Elizabethtown app that is now available for free download for Apple, Android and other mobile devices, said Executive Director Sherry Murphyon Monday during Elizabethtown City Council's voting meeting.

Once again, JoAnn Falletta has made history.
The popular music director of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra has accepted the post of chief conductor of the Ulster Orchestra in Northern Ireland.
In the Belfast Telegraph, a reporter by the name of Alf McCreary on Monday wrote: "She is the first woman and the first American to be appointed to this prestigious post, which is one of the most important roles in the arts and cultural life of Northern Ireland."
Falletta's contract in Ulster is for three years. She will have eight engagements with the orchestra in her first season -- a quarter of the orchestra's scheduled concerts.
Her appointment lands Buffalo in the headlines worldwide. It also shows how the world has changed since an earlier era, when American musicians often found themselves unjustly playing second fiddle to Europeans.
"U.S. Conductor Lands British Orchestra," ran the headline of the blog of British author and columnist Norman Lebrecht.
"JoAnn's just the right kind of live wire to blow cobwebs off a band, and just the right kind of personality to spread sweetness and light across the north of Ireland," wrote Lebrecht, who met Falletta on a visit to Buffalo last November.
Most conductors these days have multiple appointments. Falletta, who is in Europe and unavailable to comment, will be racking up the frequent-flier miles with the best of them.
She recently renewed her contract here in Buffalo for the next five years. Last weekend, the smaller Virginia Symphony, where she is also music director, signed her to an additional three years.
Her Irish appointment was announced while she was on stage in Ulster conducting the orchestra. She had flown to Ireland after conducting the Omaha Symphony in two concerts last weekend.
She maintains that she enjoys the fast pace.
"It's ridiculous, but it's so much fun," she told The News in 2006, when asked about it. "It's so energizing. You're making music. And that is such a thrill."
Still, all this activity begs the question: Where is Falletta going to find the time to commute to Ireland?
Dan Hart, the BPO's executive director, does not seem concerned. "Her official contract here is for 18 weeks a year," he says. "You can see that leaves some time. It's hard to keep track of her. She's darting here and there for guest appearances. And I don't know what the Virginia commitment is. But it still leaves a lot of weeks for her to be going [to Ireland].
"I think she feels that this is her home. If you look at the weeks beyond the 18 weeks a year, she still spends most of her time in Buffalo."
Hart says Falletta's increased European presence could boost the BPO.
Formed in 1966 and based in Belfast, the Ulster Orchestra is Northern Ireland's only professional symphony orchestra. It employs 63 full-time musicians. The orchestra has made some 70 recordings, notably for Chandos, Naxos, BMG and Hyperion. It also has an ongoing broadcast partnership with the BBC.
"She's certainly an important figurehead for the BPO and our brand," Hart says. "I think the fact that there's going to be a BBC presence will spur interest in our CDs and the CD projects we have going. People will be interested in what she's done and what she's doing.
"JoAnn can't help promoting us no matter where she goes. People need to realize what a great ambassador she is to Buffalo and this region."
Jet lag did not seem to be an issue as Falletta spoke with the Belfast Telegraph.
"The Ulster Orchestra is one of the great orchestras of these islands and it has been a cornerstone of cultural life here in good times and bad for many years," she said. "So it is a huge honor for me to become its principal conductor."
The post as chief conductor of the Ulster Orchestra had been vacant since the retirement of Kenneth Montgomery, who was born in Belfast. Previous chief conductors have been established Europeans and include Dmitry Sitkovetsky, a Russian conductor who is the son of pianist Bella Davidovich, and Yan Pascal Tortelier, the son of cellist Paul Tortelier.
Ulster is the hometown of concert pianist Barry Douglas, who is scheduled to appear on next year's BPO season. Falletta's association with the orchestra began last year, when she conducted one of the BBC's Invitation Concerts.

Derby recreation center closedApril 02,2013DERBY An indoor community recreation center in northern Vermont has closed due to financial problems.
Community National Bank has taken over Indoor Recreation of Orleans known as IROC in Derby on Sunday after the facility failed to pay its mortgage for months.
The chairman of the board and executive director said he hopes that the facility can be purchased and continue serving the entire community.
The center has a pool, skating rink, gym and offered fitness and recreation programs, as well as basketball, volleyball and soccer leagues.
The Caledonia Record reported that IROCs board of directors could not raise enough money to secure a low-interest loan to pay off about $1 million in debt. The facility also needed $150,000 in maintenance.MORE IN Vermont NewsIf this hasnt been the worst year ever for truth in politics, I cant think of what was.

Robert Louis-Dreyfus, one of the most influential businessmen in European soccer over the last 20 years, died Saturday of leukemia at the age of 63. The French-born Swiss billionaire was president of French club Marseille.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter said Louis-Dreyfus "contributed hugely to the game of football, not only with his visionary business sense, but especially with his heart."
Louis-Dreyfus, cousin of American actressJulia Louis-Dreyfus and a graduate of Harvard's business school, was a director of major sportswear companies adidas and Salomon and CEO of advertising company Saatchi & Saatchi.
He took over OM in 1996 and kept it afloat after being stripped of its 1992-93 league title and demoted to the second division for the match-fixing scandal.
Louis-Dreyfus reportedly pumped $300 million of his own money into Marseille, which hasn't won a major trophy since then but it is France's most popular club.
Louis-Dreyfus' reign was not without controversy.
In 2006, he was given a 10-month suspended prison sentence in a scandal involving 10 people embezzling money through alleged hidden bonuses in the transfer of 15 players.
In 2007, a deal to sell Marseille to Florida-based Canadian businessman Jack Kachkar fell through at the last moment.
Only recently, popular club president Pape Diouf, a former player agent, was fired by Louis-Dreyfus after five years on the job.

Farm to Fork
Producing fresh, local, sustainable dairy foods
Milk, cheese and yogurt are some of the freshest and simplest foods we can include in our diets … and all three take just a few steps and a few hours to get from the dairy farm to your fork (or spoon or glass). That's because the dairy farms and farmers that produce them can be found near you – in all 50 states – making them truly a locally grown or produced food choice.
Fresh & Local
Some foods are only grown in certain areas of the country, but dairy is local and based in all 50 states. There are more than 50,000 dairy farms in the United States, including more than 8,000 here in the Midwest. In fact, milk's journey from the farm to the grocery store takes only about two days! Not only is this journey fast and efficient, it enhances milk safety and quality – you can be sure that your grocer is selling dairy that's very fresh. In these same two days, milk also makes its way to nearby school cafeterias, fueling kids with nutritious food and boosting the local economy. Many schools provide fun and educational activities for students to learn more about cow milk production and how dairy fresh food gets from the dairy farm to their lunch tray. Through Farm to School programs, everybody wins!
Take 48 seconds to watch the journey your milk makes — whether it's to your grocery store or school — in 48 hours.
Real & Safe
There are countless choices in the dairy case, but with claims such as organic and antibiotic-free, how do you know what to choose?
Good news — all milk, as long as it is pasteurized, is wholesome, safe, nutritious and dairy fresh. That's because all dairy farmers, regardless of their farms' size or ownership, follow strict regulations and best practices in cow milk production for the health of their families, their cows, their neighbors and you! You can see milk's safety journey for yourself. Join Dr. Lloyd Metzger, a professor from South Dakota State University, as he walks through the rigorous steps farmers and dairy processors take in cow milk production to keep bacteria, antibiotics and other potential contaminants out of the milk supply.
Delivering Goodness from the Ground Up
Dairy farmers' commitment to fostering a healthy planet is just as strong as their commitment to producing nutrient-rich milk on their dairy farm for you and your family to enjoy for a healthy lifestyle. In fact, dairy foods are important contributors of many nutrients in the diet that are vital to good health. Few other foods deliver these nutrients in such an affordable, appealing and accessible way.
But when it comes to sustainability, consumers have a shared responsibility, particularly as it relates to choices we make about the food we put on our plate and our efforts to reduce overall food waste.
On-Farm Practices
Cow milk production involves more than milking cows. For dairy farmers, a cow's comfort and health is very important to their overall sustainability efforts because healthy and well-treated animals produce high-quality, wholesome dairy foods. When it comes to animal care, nutritious diets, healthy living conditions and good veterinary care are practices routinely used by all farmers to keep their herds healthy. In addition, dairy farmers and the dairy community have created FARM (Farmers Assuring Responsible Management), a nationwide, verifiable animal well-being program that brings consistency and uniformity to on-farm animal care practices.
On the farm, dairy farmers are conservationists and use a variety of recycling practices so that they use as little water and energy as possible in the daily management of their farms. Many dairy farmers also spread natural manure into the soil to replenish the soil so crops grow better, reducing the amount of commercial fertilizers needed.
See how dairy farmers Dean Marshik and Clare Palmquist have focused on sustainability to make sure their farm lives on for generations to come.
Dairy farmers rely on scientific advancements and on-farm sensibilities to look for new ways to be sustainable. Examples of sustainable farming practices include:
- Crop rotation to mitigate weeds and improve soil quality,
- The introduction of beneficial insects to control harmful pests,
- No-tillage or reduced tillage crop farming for soil and fuel conservation, and
- The use of new products with enhanced environmental benefits.
Cows are also the original recycler, with the bulk of their diet including by-products that humans can't digest.
According to U.S. Census Bureau data, the world population is estimated to exceed 9 billion by 2050. To meet this growing need, farmers are working hard to reduce their impact on the environment, using less land and resources to produce more food and milk. Compared to farms in 1960, USDA statistics show that U.S. dairy farms today are producing almost three times more milk with about half the number of cows.
But the work is not done. The dairy industry continues to take steps to become even more sustainable. While dairy farmers have already made great strides in reducing the carbon footprint on their farms, the industry is working together to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25 percent by 2020 – the equivalent to taking 1.25 million passenger cars off the road each year.
Food Waste – We Can All Help
Food waste is a significant concern today, and something we can all have a major impact on. According to the USDA, nearly one-third of our food, valued at $162 billion annually, goes uneaten and ends up in a landfill.
One of the most impactful things families can do to help ensure that nutritious foods are available for everyone is to reduce their overall food waste. Small steps add up. Making healthy, nutrient-rich food choices with protein, including dairy fresh products like milk, cheese and yogurt, is an easy way to maximize your calorie input at meals and snack times, helping you to feel fuller longer. Being mindful of portion size is another critical way to help minimize food waste.
Consumers can put their commitment to sustainability into action by:
- Buying only what you will eat and think about getting the most nutrition for your money – planning meals and grocery shopping with a list is a key to this step!
- Taking home leftovers from your restaurant meals.
- Being creative with leftovers at home using recipe sites that allow you to search by ingredient.
- Freezing food before it spoils – that large casserole will freeze and be a great dinner at a later date!
Nutrition, agriculture and sustainability are no longer separate conversations. We can each play a role making choices on the farm and in our homes that help us preserve our environment for future generations.

Summer fun starts at Canadohta
Hundreds of people, residents, tourists and visitors enjoyed the many activities at Canadohta Lake over the July Fourth holiday. Many more are waiting for some upcoming events such as the Little Miss Canadohta Pageant and Cann Doo Wop.
The 2013 fireworks display went on despite intermittent rainfall. The Facebook page for the Canadohta Lake Area Business Association was filled with comments such as "awesome" and "spectacular."
The fireworks were set off as dusk fell on Saturday, July 6, from the farm of John Stranahan, which is on top of a hill on Shreve Ridge Road overlooking the lake.
"The fireworks were very, very spectacular this year," said Ann Bergheim, the president of CLABA. "There was heavy traffic all around the lake throughout the day."
The Canadohta Queens helped to collect money during the fireworks to help fund next year's display. Contributions are being accepted for 2014 at CLABA, Bloomfield Township Building, 22978 Shreve Ridge Road, Bloomfield, PA 16438.
Earlier in the day, both the annual Kid's Bike Parade and the Boat Parade were held.
The Kids Bike Parade is sponsored by the Bloomfield Township Recreation Board. More than 130 eateries were listed for the parade, which began at 11 a.m. at Elmwood Park and wheeled to the Frog Pond Restaurant.
"The turnout this year was just awesome," said Karen Brozell, treasurer for the recreation board. "The parade seems to get bigger and bigger every year."
As usual, the parade was led by a Bloomfield Fire Department truck.
Six boats participated in this year's boat parade and there were plenty of spectators to view the festive armada. The theme of the parade was your favorite television program. The theme for next year will be your favorite cartoon.
The Miss Canadohta Pageant will be Sunday, July 21, beginning at 2 p.m. More information is at www.cannadohtalake.org.
The popular Canna Doo Wop community festival, opens, Saturday, Aug. 3, with a weekend of arts and crafts, a truck, car and motorcycle show, a street dance and plenty of other fun activities.
The owners and the staff of the Backporch Grille hope to be able to swing the doors open by Thursday, Aug. 1. The former Sue's Mill will be the new location for the Backporch.
Employee Dorris Millers said customers won't be disappointed with the menu which she promises will be very interesting. One item she did mention should fit the bill for the popular fishing lake -- fish tacos.

SUMMERVILLE — Jessica Griffon couldn't attend a candlelight vigil in Aiken on Friday in memory of her friend, Ashley Kaney, and her daughter, Riley Burdick, so she decided to have a simultaneous event in front of Kaney's home in Sangaree.
Nearly 100 people showed up, crowding the small front yard of the home where Kaney, 26, and her 8-year-old daughter were found slain on Tuesday.
Kaney's boyfriend, Jacob Philip, 22, of Virginia Beach, is charged with their murders.
"I am touched beyond words," Griffon said of the crowd Friday. "I didn't expect so many people."
Griffon, along with friends Amber Wiggins and Alyssa Longstreet, met about a year and a half ago through their husbands and boyfriends, who are in the Navy. The three women organized the vigil together.
"Because our husbands work crazy hours, all we really have are each other," said Griffon, who frequently spent weekends at Kaney's home.
Many of those in attendance carried candles or glow-in-the dark sticks and bracelets as they gathered in front of a tri-fold poster filled with photos of the woman and her daughter.
Several said they didn't know them personally, but wanted to attend.
Melissa Danner, a mother who volunteers at Sangaree Intermediate School, where Riley attended third grade, said she often saw the girl at school.
"I am here for every woman who ever lost her life to domestic violence," said Danner, who pointed out that October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. She led the crowd in a prayer for the victims, their families and Philip.
Several friends talked about the last time they spoke to the pair.
For Griffon, that was a couple of days before their deaths.
"I was on a plane to New York and she was telling me how excited she was about going on a date with Jacob because she finally got a sitter for Riley," Griffon said. "She was going to get all dolled up, straighten her hair, get a nice dress ... There is no way we would have predicted this. Not in a million years. This never, ever have crossed any of our minds, not even the people that Jacob worked with every day."

A Christmas Bonus will be paid in December 2015 to people getting a long-term social welfare payment.
In 2015 the Christmas Bonus will be 75% of your normal weekly payment. The Christmas Bonus is generally paid during the first week of December.
In December 2015, the Christmas Bonus will be paid to people getting the following payments:
The Christmas Bonus is also paid to people gettting Blind Welfare Allowance, Mobility Allowance, and rehabilitative training allowances from the HSE. Survivors of Thalidomide who get payments from the Department of Health also get the bonus. It will be paid to certain participants on some Further Education and Training (FET) courses funded by SOLAS (people coming from jobseeker's payments must have been on their payment and/or training allowance for 15 months).
Note that for Domiciliary Care Allowance (DCA) which is paid monthly the bonus is 75% of the weekly payment. The DCA portion of the Bonus is calculated independently of other payments. So, for example, if you were getting DCA for one child 75% of the weekly payment is €53.37.
In 2015 the Christmas Bonus will be 75% of your normal weekly payment (including the Living Alone Increase, the Island Allowance and the Over-80 Increase). The Christmas Bonus does not include Fuel Allowance. The minimum Christmas Bonus payment is €20.
If an Increase for a Qualified Adult is paid directly to your dependent spouse, civil partner or cohabitant the Christmas Bonus will also be paid directly to them.
If you are getting 2 eligible social welfare payments (for example, a One-Parent Family Payment and the Domiciliary Care Allowance or a half-rate Carer's Allowance as well as your primary payment) you will get the Christmas Bonus in respect of both payments.
Christmas Bonus 2014
The Christmas Bonus was 25% of the normal weekly payment (including the Living Alone Increase, the Island Allowance and the Over-80 Increase). The Christmas Bonus did not include Fuel Allowance with a minimum payment of €20.

Lakers first-round scenarios for Utah, Dallas and New Orleans
Here's one note right off the bat that might help to render this all moot: Utah center Mehmet Okur strained a hamstring Monday night and is questionable to face the Lakers. If Utah can't get it together and beat a Lakers team with nothing to play for Tuesday night, then the Jazz are locked into the No. 8 slot in the Western Conference and the first-round playoff matchup with the Lakers.
Utah is a pathetic 15-25 on the road this season, as is ... which is reason right there to eliminate Utah's Jerry Sloan (and Miami's Erik Spoelstra) from consideration for NBA Coach of the Year, no matter all the Jazz injuries. Even with everyone back, Utah still lost home games to Minnesota and Golden State recently to put itself in this predicament.
But if Sloan can piece it together and beat the Lakers in both teams' finale, Utah can then move up Wednesday night with either a New Orleans loss at San Antonio or a Dallas loss vs. Houston. The Lakers would then draw New Orleans or Dallas, whichever team lost, in the first round.
The NBA playoffs start Saturday, although the Lakers might not open until Sunday.

The Secret to Skiing Injury-Free
Racing down a mountain, carving massive turns and even dodging trees can get the adrenaline pumping, but like any other extreme sport, injuries can bring the fun to a sudden halt. We asked professional skier and coach Brant Moles about the most common injuries he's seen that put a skier out of commission. To help you stay healthy on the slopes, we also consulted with Naudi Aguilar, owner and head trainer at Functional Patterns, about how Self Myofascial Release, or SMFR, a form of preventative and rehabilitative training, can help avoid or alleviate these ski-specific injuries. What is Self Myofascial Release? Similar to a massage, the intent of SMFR is to "mobilize joints to a neutral point so they can get full range of motion and stability," says Aguilar. Putting pressure on a specific area that has too much fascia built up will promote relaxation to bring a joint back to balance and eliminate pain.
A torn or bruised meniscus, ACL or MCL ligament injuries are extremely prevalent in skiers and typically occur when falling. Moles says the injury is more likely when a skier is sitting too far back on the skis when landing a jump or twisting in the knee while maneuvering a turn. Aguilar's SMFR Advice Poor lateral stability while skiing could be the culprit of most riding knee problems. Aguilar recommends releasing tension in the IT bands (iliotibial band) by placing pressure on the area one to two times per day for a minimum of one minute. The technique will allow the knee to come back to a centered position and alleviate any added pressure to the joint. What you need: Lacrosse ball and Hanbo (or similar) stick Moles' Technical Skiing Advice "If you stay forward and in control, you drastically decrease you chances of hurting yourself or your knee," says Moles. While on a ski run, he recommends staying in a position similar to a tennis player about to make a serve. Hands should be up, legs bent and weight distributed on the balls of your feet.
Twisting an ankle is extremely common when skiing. Moles says, "It can happen while skiing through gates and hooking a tip. Other obstacles such as 'snow snakes' can grab your skis and twist ankles." Aguilar's SMFR Advice Aguilar believes the over-development of peroneus longus muscles in the lower leg is what sets up the ankle up to fail. "If the ankle isn't centered and then an abrupt movement is done, injury will inevitably happen. Place pressure with the lacrosse ball on the area one to two times daily for a minimum of one minute. By doing this release, you are going to re-center the ankle into a more naturally strong position," Aguilar says. What you need: Lacrosse ball Moles' Technical Skiing Advice Staying in an athletic position with weight on both skis will allow you to make the small adjustments needed to avoid these hangups.

JERUSALEM, Israel - Outgoing Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Defense Minister Ehud Barak agreed Monday to relocate residents of Migron to the larger community of Adam. Migron (see I Samuel 14:2 and Isaiah 10:28) was first established in 1999 and became an official "outpost" in March 2002, receiving help from various government ministries over the years.
The essence of a deal reached in August between the Council of Jewish Communities of Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip (Yeshua Council) and the government stipulates that the move would be voluntary. Residents of the small, but thriving community are determined to remain and have not agreed to "relocation." The ultra-left Peace Now organization, representing alleged Palestinian landowners, petitioned the High Court of Justice to evacuate the community and return the land to Arab ownership. The court's two-week postponement of Tuesday's hearing on Migron angered Peace Now head Yariv Oppenheimer. "We are concerned that this [announced move to Adam] is only a trick to gain more time," he said, adding that even relocation was tantamount to creating a new Jewish settlement. According to Migron spokesman Gideon Rosenfield, the homes in the community were constructed legally and moving them would be construed as the opposite. "The land in Judea and Samaria is ours," Rosenfield said. "[If we are relocated], "where would it stop?" he asked. Source: The Jerusalem Post
