Egypt's resolution determines future political free will
2 bits Cottonwood Heights, UTJuly 9, 2013 1:59 p.m.
Tyler D,
How do we KNOW the protesters represent the majority of the people? Has there been a vote to prove what the majority wants? Polls of partial populations are not the same thing. Polls say what the poll taker wants them to say. I'm sure the Muslim Brotherhood has done a poll that shows the majority want THEM in power.
The protesters actually represent a very small percentage of the population. The original protests that started the whole Revolt (to oust Mubarak) was only a few hundred people. There are millions of people in Egypt. So to assume that 200 protesters represent the majority... because they oppose a Tyrant, is false logic.
To be in the TRUE "best traditions of Democracy"... they would need to have a vote to PROVE the will of the people first (not just a vocal mob insisting THEY represent the will of the people).
When a small number of people force their will (the protesters)... that doesn't represent the definition of "Democracy".
It may be for the best... but it's NOT "Democracy".
Democracy can be used for good OR evil (depends on what the people want). Hitler was Democratically elected.

@2 bits
You make some good points so let me try and clarify as well.
Democracy at its core means will of the people. By all accounts (and there has been some polling done) the protesters do represent a majority of the people. You're right about holding another election, but the institutions necessary to enforce democracy (legitimate constitution, courts, etc…) are simply not in place in Egypt at this time.
The constitution they have was rammed through AFTER Morsi gained power and it was slammed by almost everyone except his religious cronies.
Given these facts, the Egyptian people ARE behaving in the best tradition of democracy by exercising the only option they had available to them… their voice. The military at this point (as I said it could go bad) is simply guaranteeing that elections occur soon – again, I think elections are a mistake until after they draft a popular constitution.
Also, given that Morsi was moving very fast to consolidate power (signing dictatorial laws, appointing crony judges, etc…) I think the people had little choice if they truly wanted to save democracy.
Reached comment limit…
2 bits Cottonwood Heights, UTJuly 9, 2013 12:53 p.m.
It's possible you are misunderstanding me. Let me try to be clearer.
I said, "This is not an example of Democracy". You disagreed, but then you pointed out, "It is Morsi who has betrayed the democratic process". I agree Morsi has betrayed the democratic process". But a Coup is also a betrayal of the Democratic Process. Two betrayals of the Democratic Process do NOT make a perfect example of Democracy.
You said, "the people of Egypt are behaving wonderfully and in the best tradition of democracy". I didn't agree. I think the "Best" tradition of democracy would be to hold an election (not a coup).
I know Morsi is a bad guy. But a military coup is NEVER "in the best tradition of democracy". Democracy means ELECTIONS... Not forcing the President out with threats of violence (and there WERE threats of violence from the protesters).
Keep in mind... Morsi was elected in a democratic election. If he got the most votes... is that not Democracy?
What PROOF is there that the mob represents the majority?? So how is this group forcing THEIR will contrary to the vote, "in the best traditions of Democracy"?
Mike Richards South Jordan, UtahJuly 9, 2013 12:45 p.m.
You made perfect sense. A Constitution needs to be established before an election, not after it. Those elected to positions of trust need to know the will of the people before they take office. Every nation on earth has the right to determine what it will become and what rules it will follow. Those elected to enforce those rules need to know what the rules are before they take office.
That didn't happen in Egypt.
We're seeing the result of "rushing to judgement". People have been killed. Think about that. Lives have been lost. Lives that had the potential to do great things have ended. Those "great things" will never happen. The result is hatred.
Writing a Constitution and agreeing on the words in that Constitution would have prevented that hatred. Rushing to take power is a failing that few can overcome, but it leads to destruction; it leads to the loss of freedom.
Start at the basics. Write a Constitution. Ratify that Constitution. Require an oath of office before seating an elected official. Fix the problem, don't just put a band-aid on the wound.
Tyler D Meridian, IDJuly 9, 2013 12:10 p.m.
@2 bits
Either I'm not understanding you at all (entirely possible) or you're completely missing my point(s).
One man (Morsi) was elected and then DID shut down the whole democratic process. Read up on how the constitution was drafted for case in point – it was a sham.
Not sure what you expect the people of Egypt to do given this fact. How would they "force" an early election if the government (i.e., Muslim Brotherhood) refuses to listen to the people?
Your points about other branches of government are valid but these don't seem to exist in any way like what we have here (legitimately able to check power).
I think the lessons here are twofold – 1) it is folly to hold elections PRIOR to establishing the institutions of democracy and 2) religious organizations are totally incompetent at running governments.
These are painful lessons but again, I think the people of Egypt should be applauded for standing up for their rights and not allowing themselves to be dictated to by a theocracy, even one "elected" (in quotes because they were not elected by the majority) by the people.
2 bits Cottonwood Heights, UTJuly 9, 2013 11:44 a.m.
That's why Democracies don't put total power into the hands of ONE MAN, or even one BRANCH of government.
If one man can shut down the whole democratic process... you don't have a Democracy. You have a Dictatorship. I thought you said this was a perfect example of "Democracy". It's not. A Coup is NOT an example of Democracy... no matter how good it's intentions are.
A good example of "Democracy" would be for the protesters to appeal to the democratic process and force an early election (not a Military coup complete with fatalities). Democracies use the Democratic process (NOT Military Force or Mob violence). Democracies appeal to the Legislature and the Judges to overrule an out of control President. If you've let it get so bad that all branches of Government are now corrupt... you deserve what you get... because the PEOPLE elected them.
Any society that lets one man take control and trample their Constitution and willingly give away their liberties... deserve what they get.
A democracy acts BEFORE it gets to the point that the only way for the people to be heard is to kill the President.

re: 2 bits
Wouldn't it be awesome if it were that way and disagreements never resulted in violence and we could all just get along peacefully?
Unfortunately, history would tend to disagree with you.

"What Egyptians need is a constitution that guarantees the rights of minorities"
...unless they're gay. Amiright?
Mike Richards South Jordan, UtahJuly 9, 2013 10:32 a.m.
The editorial is correct. Egypt needs a Constitution between the people and the government. In America, the people retain all rights except those rights delegated to the government. There is no question in America about who "owns" which rights. The "Bill of Rights" was added to the Constitution as an additional guarantee that government would not "assume" that it held all rights and that it could parcel out those rights to the people as it pleased.
Egypt has proven that pure democracy does not work. It results in "mob rule". When the "ownership" of rights has not been clarified, there will be riots.
If Egypt writes a Constitution spearheaded by the people, then the government will know exactly what the people will allow it to do. If the government controls the "rights" and issues a Constitution claiming that government holds all rights and that government will delegate some rights to the people, there will be bloodshed and rioting.
Egypt is a noble county, but it has a long history of slavery, extending back 3,500 years. If the people are to be truly free, their Constitution must put them in control and the government as their servant.
Tyler D Meridian, IDJuly 9, 2013 9:13 a.m.
@2 bits- "This is not and example of Democracy. This is an example of Mob Rule."
On the contrary… the Egyptian people have been remarkably restrained and their protests have been largely peaceful.
It is Morsi who has betrayed the democratic process. Since being elected (and election he won only because all the other parties were so fractured – he certainly does not have the support of the majority) he has behaved like a tyrant. The constitution he and his religious fanatic supporters drafted was a joke.
And how are the people supposed to "call" for an emergency election if their own government won't do so. This is precisely what the protests were about and the military (trying to stay neutral) finally agreed to step in and do just what you suggest.
It all may still turn out bad but as of now the people of Egypt are behaving wonderfully and in the best tradition of democracy of, by, and for the People.
2 bits Cottonwood Heights, UTJuly 9, 2013 8:59 a.m.
This is not and example of Democracy. This is an example of Mob Rule.
Protesting is fine, but you don't threaten violence if you don't get your way, or threaten to KILL the democratically elected leader, or have the military under the direction of the mob remove the President because they got a big enough and violent enough mob together.
If the elected leader is abusing his authority... you have another election, not a military coup. Democracy doesn't turn to violence if part of the country didn't like the result.
Morsi may be a bad guy. If so... you hold an emergency election. You don't just organize a mob and threaten violence if the military doesn't do what the mob wants!
Ultra Bob Cottonwood Heights, UTJuly 9, 2013 8:43 a.m.
It would be a great service to this nation and the world if the news media would actually tell the whole truth about the unrest throughout the world and even in the United States.
It is only sometimes that words like jobs, prices, fees squeak through the filters of the business oriented media. It is my opinion that the people in revolt are protesting economic oppression and all the other miner issues like religion, politics and government are being used to hide that from the people.
Fox News regularly talks about the billions of dollars of aid to Egypt. Only sometimes mentioning that most of that "aid" is military equipment that is used to oppress their people. The fact is that our foreign aid is driven by the profit motive and killing people is more profitable than helping people.
In America the Occupy Wall Street group were characterized as communists, anarchists, and other never-do-wells, when the real issues are jobs and the economic oppression on working America

Los Gatos thumps WCAL champ Serra
Posted on by Mitch Stephens
A euphoric Los Gatos football coach Mark Krail looked up at the Serra scoreboard and right past the final score: Los Gatos 28, Serra 0. He noted the inscription: "Built by brotherhood."
Krail grinned. "Well, today, we showed our brotherhood," he said. With that, the second-year Los Gatos coach pumped his fist, his team roared in unison and the Wildcats' near-perfect day was complete.
A win for the fifth seed in the Central Coast Section Open Division opener wasn't out of the question. But a four-touchdown victory and shutout against the West Catholic Athletic League champs and defending Open champs didn't seem plausible.
Two touchdown passes and TD run by impressive senior quarterback Dru Brown and two scores from Joey Wood complemented an absolutely dominant effort by a defense that allowed just 151 yards and forced four turnovers.
Los Gatos (9-2) advanced to second-round play against top-seed Sacred Heart Prep-Atherton, a 37-13 winner over visiting Oak Grove-San Jose (7-4).
"We talked this morning about a true brotherhood," Krail said. "These guys have known each other since elementary school. I'm very proud of our guys. … I think we proved to the world that Los Gatos belongs in the Open Division."
It was obvious from the start, especially from the defense, which forced Serra (7-4) to go three-and-out on its first three possessions. Serra's high-powered running game managed 83 yards on 27 carries and Hunter Bishop hit just 11 of 29 passes for 68 yards with three second-half interceptions.
One by Jake Holton was returned to the Serra 6 and Wood, a 5-foot-10, 225-pound running back, scored on a 1-yard run to make it 28-0 with 6:48 left in the third quarter. "They just beat us up front," Serra coach Patrick Walsh said. "They didn't run any different fronts, they just won."

Los Gatos dominates Serra 28-0
Posted on by Darren Sabedra
By Darren firstname.lastname@example.com POSTED: 11/22/2014 05:29:57 PM PST
SAN MATEO — Serra stepped onto its home field Saturday as the reigning Central Coast Section Open Division champion and fresh from winning a share of the West Catholic Athletic League title.
That didn't overwhelm Los Gatos one bit.
If the Wildcats had not already proved they can hold their own against teams from the CCS's top league, they certainly did so Saturday, dominating Serra from start to finish on their way to a 28-0 rout that moves them into the Open Division semifinals next Saturday against Sacred Heart Prep at Independence.
Top Plays
Los Gatos (9-2) scored touchdowns on its first two series, led by three touchdowns at halftime and all but put away the game in the third quarter when Jake Holton's interception inside the Serra 10 set up Joey Wood's 1-yard scoring run for a 28-point cushion.
The quick start was the perfect script for Los Gatos, which has beaten St. Francis, Mitty and Serra of the WCAL in its past 12 games. "That certainly was the hopeful plan — that we would get out to an early lead," Los Gatos coach Mark Krail said. "Fortunately, today we did. My hats off to all three phases. I told the guys, offense, defense, special teams. We knew they were fast and physical. We made some plays early, and our defense never buckled."
Dru Brown completed passes of 9, 13 and 20 yards on Los Gatos' first possession and then capped the 59-yard drive with a 1-yard sneak to make it 7-0.
On the Wildcats' second series, Brown hung in the pocket against heavy pressure and at the last moment swung a screen pass to Joey Wood, who followed a convoy of blockers down the sideline and avoided one last defender to complete a 58-yard touchdown play.
"At this point in the season, our time is running out as seniors," said Brown, who threw for 186 yards and two touchdowns. "I am just playing for the guy next to me. If I take a hit, it's part of the game."
Brown hung in there again later in the half, completing a 30-yard pass to Nick Occhipinti that moved Los Gatos to the 16. Brown's 5-yard pass to Matt Wilcox moments later stretched the lead to 21-0.
Los Gatos put the rest of the game in the hands of its defense, which never allowed Serra's fast-pace offense to get in rhythm.
"We're coming out here as a school that's never won an Open Division championship, and we're looking to be the first," Wood said. "No one better to beat in the first round than the defending Open champions."
Serra (7-4) finished with 151 yards of total offense and four turnovers.
"They just beat us up front," Serra coach Patrick Walsh said.

Saratoga @ Los Gatos
Cats Dominate Falcons, Next Up Wilcox
Posted on by LGFB.com staff
The cross town rivalry continues but Saratoga will need to wait another year in hopes of beating Los Gatos. The Cats defense was so dominate, that the Falcons didn't score until the last minute of the game when #13 William Liddle hit a 26 Yd pass to #21 Jordan Vogel for a TD, but a sign of the evening, they missed the PAT.
Aviv Brender started the scoring for Los Gatos with a 4 Yd run to the end zone, as the Cats would return 5 more times on the night with scores by Quinn Spiteri, Ryan Gault, Miles Beach, Joey Wood, and Nick Stojanovich. Walker Sedgwick was perfect on PAT's for the night.
Dru Brown had a great night passing and was 12 of 15 for 156 yards and TD, he finished with a QB rating of 134. Other offensive standouts were Joey Wood who average over 5 yards a carry and led the Cats on the ground with 43 yards, and Ryan Gault who had a 26 yard run for a touchdown. Nick Occhipinti led in receiving yards with 53, while Matt Wilcox, Dylan Plane, and Miles Beach also contributed in the aerial assault.
The Los Gatos defense was fired up and just missed a shutout of the Falcons in the last minute of the game. Jake Holton led the defense in tackles with Quinn Spiteri, and Mitchell Schwager following close behind. The defensive line hurried Liddle all night long and kept the Falcons from mounting any threat until late in the fourth quarter.
The Cats now turn their attention to the Wilcox Chargers who are 6-3 on the season, and would very much like to end the Cat's regular season with a loss in front of the Chargers home crowd. Los Gatos wants to finish strong going into the playoffs and looks to disappoint Wilcox with a win in Santa Clara.
The records never seem to matter much in the this match up, as Wilcox and Los Gatos have always played each other very tough, and we should expect the same next Friday night at Wilcox.

Prague, Zizkov, Czech Republic, 2011/04/13 - The Prague Stock Exchange (BCPP) has deployed the latest version of the VMware View 4.5 virtual desktop environment. The entire project was realized by Stickfish, the specialist on VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) technologies.
Desktop virtualization offers significantly better security in comparison to regular PCs. Regular user PCs suffer from a number of security risks, and security plays an important role in the activities of the stock exchange operator. Employees who process stock exchange data need to be equipped with ever more sophisticated means of data protection.
"Legacy PC suffers number of security threats in our processing and dealing environment as national stock exchange data provider. We have chosen Stickfish as a VDI solution supplier for very high level of desktop security requirements and high availability desktop solution," said Mr. Miroslav Prokes, CIO of Prague Stock Exchange.
The Prague Stock Exchange is aware of the risks which is why it has opted to secure selected sites using the VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) technology from VMware. The solution, which provides not only an extreme level of protection but also high availability, was supplied and integrated with the rest of the infrastructure by Stickfish. Stickfish has a lot of experience and know-how in the area of VDI which is evidenced by the more than 1500 virtualized desktops it has deployed for companies such as ČEPS, KESA/Datart, Pragoprojekt, and others. The infrastructure providing the virtualized desktops was supplied by Stickfish together based on IBM products. It uses, for example, storage solutions from the DS3500 storage series and fully redundant x3550 servers. The supplied infrastructure will also serve as a platform for the virtualization of the Prague Stock Exchange's servers.

About Prague Stock Exchange
Prague Stock Exchange The Prague Stock Exchange is the biggest organiser of the securities market in the Czech Republic. By law it is a joint stock company.

The Prague Stock Exchange is considered a respected and stable market.

Because the Republicans ran some terrible candidates in Senate races the Democrats now think they have a mandate to raise taxes and increase spending! The lunacy continues.
Senate Democrats, feeling confident from their net gain of two seats in last week's election, say any deficit-reduction package negotiated in the coming weeks must include stimulus measures.
They have yet to decide which prime-the-pump measures to push, but are mulling options such as new infrastructure spending and an extension of the payroll tax holiday.
Some Republicans are likely to balk at the notion that a package to cut the deficit would include new spending. But Democrats argue the No. 1 concern for voters is job creation and that the government needs to take a more aggressive role in spurring the economy.
These people are out of their freaking minds! Look where all of the stimulus spending they've already done has taken the job market. Look what QE in perpetuity is doing to the stock market. Why would any sane people think that more of the same will produce a different result? Geez, we may as well go over the financial cliff now and get it over with.
Update: Linked by The Other McCain who wonders "Maybe all those stupid young "Vagina Voters" can find some way to trade in their free contraceptives for cash." Considering the state of the economy they voted for, they better hope so.

Jesse Tyler Ferguson is the latest celebrity to make a dark discovery about his family's past, courtesy of the TLC show "Who Do You Think You Are?"
The "Modern Family" star learned early in his exploration into his family's history that his great-grandfather, on his father's side, was accused of murdering his own aunt.
"It was overwhelming, because when I've watched ['Who Do You Think You Are?'] as a fan, usually there's this big reveal, this important part of the puzzle, near the end of the episode," he told People magazine. "And here we are dealing with it in the beginning."
The murder case was never resolved but Ferguson, who was born in Montana and raised in New Mexico, still had a hard time reckoning the accusations against his great-grandfather.
"I knew he was the man who raised my grandmother, who I loved so much and I know what kind of woman she turned out to be," he said. "I can't imagine anyone who was bad who could raise such a wonderful person."

The murder accusation wasn't the only thing Ferguson, 38, learned about his father's family.
"I thought it couldn't get any crazier than that moment, and it just kept getting more interesting as we went along," he told People. "It really does affect you in a very profound way. It's like a ball of yarn. It just keeps unraveling and you want to get to the end."
Ferguson's episode will air tonight on TLC.
In last week's premiere episode," "Sex and the City" star Cynthia Nixon discovered that her great-great-great grandmother was an ax murderer and served time for killing her abusive husband.

Ratings for Dr. Heather L. Rossi
Dr Rossi is an excellent surgeon. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The surgery went very well. Dr. Rossil cares about her patients. I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a surgeon.
Had to get hemorrhoid surgery and everything after the surgery was messed up. First, I had the wrong directions sent home with me. Then, I had the wrong dosage amounts on my RX bottle. And the worst, I literally had to be loaded in the my car, and drove to her office in Coon Rapids, after an entire week of post-op calls that went un-returned. I am extremely displeased with the post-op care, or lack there of.
Dr. Rossi is great, I wouldn't have let anyone else fix my rectocele. She takes great care of her patients.
Dr. Rossi performed colon cancer surgery on my mom and she is one of the most compassionate and understanding physicians I have ever met. She even called me when I had concerns; a rarity these days to actually talk to the doctor instead of getting a call back from the nurse!
Two visits with Dr. Rossi to have hemorrhoids banded. She answered all my questions, showed and explained to me what she would do, and was concerned about my comfort as procedures were performed.
Hemorrhoid surgery, that turned into a night mare. Post Op I called her office to say I had Problems and the office said wait for your fallow up appointment in 4 weeks. I now live with a fissure that nothing can be repaired, and have to wear pads to catch the constant drainage,. So hemorrhoids is a walk in the park compared to the fissure that I will live with the rest of my life.

lovely guy lovely cock so wanna suck him
Blowjob "master"???? Hardly. Rule number 1 when it comes to blowjobs: it's sucking, NOT a handjob. The cock goes and remains in the mouth. The bitch hardly takes an inch of his dick in her mouth. This should be renamed "handjob" master. What a waste of time.
Uh... a blow job with no cum is like getting in the car to drive to Disney World, but stopping at the Florida Welcome Center and saying "This is good enough."

Kobe Bryant's eighth shoe has shown incredible promise with the incredible colorways that we've been previewing thus far. Not that the Kobe line has any business being on a proving ground of any kind, the fact is that the VII was a bit of a downer and at the outset, the Kobe 8 didn't seem that much of a departure for basketball fans to give the shoe its undivided attention. Lunar and Engineered Mesh is certainly a departure from a structural standpoint, and thus far, the crazy snake-inspired geometric pattern on the upper has been a marvelous view in the dazzling color-combos that we've seen, and this Grey/Volt pair only adds to the energy because, well, Grey/Volt is simplay that colorway. We've got multiple angles of this newbie below so take a look and stick with Sneaker News for more updates.

Hi to everyone ! 1st post here but long time reader. I just bought a second home (lucky me I know :-D)so I upped the game a bit with a new setup which i'll describe b4 asking for advice:
- Pioneer PD-10 Sacd/Cd player (connected via analog to receiver)
- Onkyo Tx-sr 608 Receiver/Amp
- Ps3 (connected HDMI to receiver)
-Wharfedale Diamond floorstanders + center and B&W Subwoofer
I listen to music (SACD and CD from the player) for about 60% of the time....rest from the PlayStation3 in the form of HQ wav files (30 to 40 MB/song) converted from FLAC 96/24 or 192/24 downloads.
I'm really diggin this set-up and plan to keep it this way (simple to use/run even for wifey) but I was wondering if buyin' an external DAC (300-400 $ budget) would improve audio specially for the PS3 part.
I know PS3 it's not what you would call an audiophile source for digital files but I try to keep things simple since the PS3 allows me wav audio, Bluray and DVD concerts (great audio on those!), Bluray movies etc.
Also, a 3 to 400$ DAC would allow me to somehow connect both the PS3 and the SACD player and from there feed the receiver?

What Made Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady's Relationship Stronger
Gisele Bundchen has opened up and shared with us her experience of newly husband Tom Brady and his knocked up ex-girlfriend. The couple were married last February and what an amazing couple they were. It was all smiles on the outside, but how was Gisele really feeling on the inside? After two months of the Brazilian supermodel and American footballer dating, they found out that Brady's ex-girlfriend, Bridgit Moynahan, was carrying his baby.
I'm sure that would have been a shock for both of them, however I am glad that things were finally clear. Up until now, I thought that one of the reasons Brady made a run for it was because he found out Bridget was pregnant. Now that would have been really low. Deadspin tells us that in Gisele's interview with Vanity Fair, 'it was definitely a surprise for both of us' and that this bump start only made their relationship stronger. She thought that their relationship was just too good to be true, and then sure enough they got the 'wake-up call'.
Gisele obviously had questions, concerns and second guessing. She wasn't sure if she wanted to be in between this, or if Brady and Moynahan should try to make their relationship work with a baby on the way. I think anyone would have had the same thoughts, this is nothing easy to conquer and it doesn't stop once the baby is born. It sounds as if Gisele and Tom were very mature about this and went into it knowing all sides to the puzzle. They found out early on in the game who each other really were, and what they were made out of. No surprises later on in this relationship.
Gisele is happy to be a stepmom but realizes that she will not overstep the boundaries of the mom's relationship with the child. Wow this child is going to have two gorgeous looking mother figures growing up to!

That is a thumbs down answer
I guess then there are 3 PWM pins on the ATTiny24 - 5, 6 and 8?
QuoteThat is a thumbs down answerNo that is a very good answer. You did not ask the question "how many or which pins are PWM" you asked "how would I tell which pins are PWM pins" and your title says "Assistance reading datasheet please".If you want to know just the answer then ask, don't ask how to find out for yourself if you don't want to learn.
but I guess I was looking for some simple statement saying pins x, y and z are PWM pins.


text: What the VW scandal should teach brokers Fill in your email details for an immediate FREE download E-mail address Name Title Company Phone In a single day after it was revealed that Volkswagen cheated on its clean diesel emissions tests, the German automaker lost almost a quarter of its global market value and seems to be facing irreparable damage to its global brand name and one of the largest recalls in history. Although most companies do not typically engage in such subterfuge, almost every product and food manufacturer is at risk of a product recall or alert. For this reason, it is imperative that they remain prepared for any and every possible worst case scenario. "The need for product recall coverage is really important, as it can help companies get back expenses relating to a recalled product and also communicating with consumers to reassure them about safety concerns," said Kent Pitkin, national director, commercial lines, APRIL Canada. Contrary to popular belief, manufacturers are not the only ones susceptible. Pitkin points to a recent case involving salmonella-infested cucumbers as proof that even the most innocuous-seeming products can face immense reputational harm as the result of a recall. "Anything that a consumer uses has the potential to injure somebody and can be recalled," Pitkin notes. Moreover, the litigious environment in Canada has resulted in a growing number of watchdogs and consumer advocates on the lookout for potential harm from even the most common of household products. "People are more sensitive and aware of legal action that can be taken, so I think from both the manufacturing of equipment and parts point of view, as well as food, this means that it's more important than ever to have the right package of insurance to make sure they're covered," Pitkin said. APRIL's product stands out in particular because it not only offers expenses related to the recall itself, but business interruption and financial loss too – which can be the determining factor in the future viability of an organization. "One product recall could put companies out of business, not only from the financial expenses of the recall, but they could lose out on contracts or sales, and there's always the cost of litigation," said Pitkin. "All it takes is one faulty product." SHARE

ESPN Insider
Jerry West has one thing on his mind this summer. . . and it's a whopper.
"Our primary goal is for a big guy. Our primary wish is for a big guy," Grizzlies president Jerry West said. "We're going to try to be aggressive. We have to go get our coach (Hubie Brown) another player that will help make a difference."
Over the course of the last two seasons, West has worked miracles in Memphis. He has, brick-by-brick, rebuilt one of the sorriest franchises in the league. Whether it was the hiring of Hubie Brown, the new professionalism that he's infused within the entire franchise or role players like James Posey who he's helped turn into stars, the Grizzlies have become the Pistons of the West -- a starless, selfless team that values teamwork, depth and playing the right way over everything else.
A stunning 50-32 record last season landed them their first-ever appearance in the playoffs. Brown took home coach of the year honors. West walked away with the executive of the year award.
However, all of it provided little solace to either Brown or West when the team was swept by the Spurs in the first round of the playoffs. The rout exposed the Grizzlies' two biggest weaknesses -- a physical dominating presence in the middle and a point guard willing to play tough defense. Tony Parker drove to the basket at will virtually untouched despite the fact that the Grizzlies knew that getting physical with Parker usually shuts him down. They also had no answer inside for Tim Duncan or even Rasho Nesterovic.
West didn't build this team to win 50 games. He wants to win a championship. Can he use his depth to acquire that elusive big man who has escaped him since he left the Lakers? Here's a look at what to expect as Insider continues its summer blueprint series.
Grizzlies Summer Blueprint
DRAFT: The Grizzlies traded away their first-round pick last season as part of the trade that sent Bonzi Wells to Memphis. No matter. There was only one guy who West really had his heart set on -- Texas Tech's Andre Emmett -- and the Grizzlies picked him up in the second round.
The Grizzlies had fallen hard for Emmett pretty early in the process and actually tried to move up into the first round to get him. When he slipped into the second round, the Grizzlies pounced. Emmett was one of the top scorers in college basketball last season. He can drive to the hole on anyone and has a nice-looking mid-range game. His only weakness is his deep shot.
The team also picked up a local product, Antonio Burks, who many teams were pretty high on. Burks is a tough, physical point guard who should immediately be the team's best defender at the point. Sergei Lishouk, a native of the Ukraine, was also drafted, though he'll be kept over in Europe for the next few years to develop.
Overall, the Grizzlies did a good job of finding value in the second round. However, the addition of Burks and Emmett were pretty duplicative of the guys they drafted in the first round last year -- Troy Bell and Dahntay Jones. Neither of those guys played last season. Will Burks and Emmett ever see the light of day? If the Grizzlies pull off the trades they'd like to make, the answer could be yes.
FREE AGENCY: The Grizzlies have one big free agent they want to re-sign and one bigger free agent on the open market who they'd like to sign. The key will be getting them both in Grizzlies uniforms next season.
Stromile Swift hit restricted free agency last week, and all indications out of Memphis are that the team wants him back and will match any offer sheet for him. Swift started just 10 games for the team last season and averaged just 9.4 ppg, 4.9 rpg and 1.5 bpg. But he did it in under 20 mpg.
Why would the Grizzlies be obsessed with keeping a guy at any price with those numbers -- especially one who has been in Brown's dog house repeatedly? Because the Grizzlies see the same thing 15 other teams wooing Swift right now do. He's a rare athlete who gets up the floor super fast, has offensive skills and can change the pace of the game with his defense. On most teams, Swift would get a lot more blow. In Memphis he won't, but it doesn't make him less valuable.
The guy the Grizzlies are working overtime for is Warriors free agent Erick Dampier. Last summer, West believed that he had a three-way trade in place between the Warriors, Pistons and Grizzlies that would've landed Dampier in Memphis. The trade talks progressed to the point that the teams were ready to schedule a trade call with the league only to be thwarted by the New England blackout that took place last summer. As things waited over the weekend, the trade fell apart and the Grizzlies were forced to scramble.
This year, with Dampier an unrestricted free agent, they're crossing their fingers that they're in the drivers seat this time. Dampier wants to play in Memphis.
"I have a lot of friends there, and it will be close to home," Dampier said last week. "Plus, I like the fact that they're an up-and-coming team. If they had a center, maybe they would have advanced in the playoffs."
However, he'd prefer for the two sides to work out a sign-and-trade so that he can earn more money. Right now, the most the Grizzlies could offer Dampier is a six-year, $40 million contract. With a sign-and-trade, Dampier could make more.
The Grizzlies appear to have the pieces in place to make the trade. However, it's believed that the Warriors are holding out for Swift to be included in the deal. If the Grizzlies give him a starting salary of about $5.5 million a year, he won't become a base-year compensation player, making him available to trade. That might be too much for the Grizzlies to swallow. Their vision of a dominating front line includes both Swift and Dampier. Given Dampier's age and history of injuries, giving up Swift might be too high of a price to pay.
After Dampier, the market begins to fall a little flat. Vlade Divac is the best veteran center available, but he's a much shorter-term fix for the Grizzlies. Boston's Mark Blount showed major promise last year with the Celtics, but was he a one-hit wonder?
TRADES: If Dampier isn't available, there's been lots of talk that West would go after his old center, Shaquille O'Neal. The Grizzlies are one of the few teams that appear to be, on paper, deep enough to swallow Shaq's contract.
The problem is that trading for Shaq would sap the Grizzlies of the very thing that made them special last year -- depth and a relentless 48-minute-a-night attack. For the Grizzlies to get Shaq, they'd have to give up their best player, Pau Gasol, and an assortment of role players, including Lorenzen Wright, Bo Outlaw and likely Bonzi Wells and Earl Watson. While the Grizzlies would still have plenty of good players left on their roster, no one appears willing to alter that foundation of the team that dramatically.
That doesn't mean, however, that the Grizzlies won't be trading. In addition to trying to hammer out a sign-and-trade for Dampier, the team would like to package some of its depth for one more solid player. Again, the preference is a big man. Currently, the team has eight guards on its active roster. There's no way they're going into the season like that.
Gasol seems to be the only guy on the roster who's untouchable, though it's clear that the team would love to keep Posey and Mike Miller around. After that, any combination of players might give the Grizzlies the last missing piece they're looking for.
Another big target for the Grizzlies is the Bulls' Eddy Curry. A combo of Posey and a re-signed Swift could probably land them Curry -- but that may be too high of a price for the Grizzlies to pay.
COACHING: Hubie Brown is a miracle worker. His coaching of the year honor last year was well deserved. In the course of one full season, he taught the Grizzlies how to play team basketball. It was an amazing transformation and Brown deserved most of the credit.
He's got a job in Memphis as long as he wants it. However, he told Insider last year that once his contract is up at the end of next season, there's a good chance that he'll retire. Age is a major factor here. Brown has already accomplished so much in Memphis. Whenever he decides to retire, after next season or 10 years from now, his turnaround of the Grizzlies will be his crowning achievement as a coach. The only issue? Who in the world could replace him?
FRONT OFFICE: West has been great for Memphis, though he obviously hasn't been flawless. His first two drafts for the Grizzlies were just so-so. He passed on Amare Stoudemire in favor of Drew Gooden and last season picked up two players -- Troy Bell and Dahntay Jones -- who never played. But he's even turned his mistakes into strengths. West was able to parlay Gooden into Mike Miller the minute he saw that Gooden wasn't the right player for the Grizzlies. He may yet use Bell or Jones in a trade that gets them their big man.
He's had other successes as well. He picked up James Posey for the mid-level exception last year while opposing GMs rolled their eyes. The conventional wisdom was that West overpaid for Posey, known then as little more than a defensive stopper. The CW now? Posey was the best free-agent bargain on the market last year. Adding Bo Outlaw and Bonzi Wells to the mix were also big improvements to the team.
But West's best move was hiring Brown. He was the perfect coach for that team. At the time, West may have been the only guy on the planet to see it. Like Brown, he's got a job in Memphis as long as he wants it, though he claims that he too may step down soon, especially if Brown retires.
Regardless of what happens to the Grizzlies next season, West's tenure here will always be remembered as a success. Getting this team to the playoffs while still handcuffed with bad contracts and salary restraints was as impressive as anything he's done in his career. A deep playoff run would be nothing but icing at this point.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Jonas Gray ran for three of Notre Dame's seven rushing touchdowns, and Michael Floyd ran for a score and caught another as the Fighting Irish rebounded from a rough week with a 56-14 rout of Navy on Saturday.
The Irish (5-3) finished with 442 yards of total offense. Tommy Rees was 16 of 22 for 237 yards, and his 56-yard scoring pass to Floyd was the longest completion of his career.
The Midshipmen (2-6) were held to a season-low 229 yards of total offense as they lost their sixth straight, and will now have to win out to have any hope of going to a bowl game for a ninth straight year.
It was Notre Dame's second victory over Navy in five years after winning an NCAA-record 43 straight from 1964 to 2006.

A BRAVE bunch of local business men and women will tackle Africa's highest mountain in aid of Bolton Lads and Girls Club.
BLGC vice president, Nick Hopkinson OBE will lead the intrepid group taking part in the mammoth trek up Mount Kilimanjaro between March 2 and 9.
Karen Edwards OBE, chief executive of BLGC said: "The challenge will raise money to support the club's work with disadvantaged youngsters, particularly around our Enterprise projects and employability programmes.
"Youth unemployment is at its highest levels, and in Bolton we are working with young people who have little support and aspirations. The money raised will help change youngsters' lives for the better." Joining Mr Hopkinson will be Ralph D'Attorre from RDA Business Services Limited, John Cherrie JDC Communications, Tracey Bleakley and Chris Hodgen from Absolute Media, John King from Asons, Rob Lomax from Liquid Roofing, Donna Monks HR Manager at BLGC, Chris Cox from George Cox & Sons, Mark Sheen from Barlow Andrews and Graham Smith from Mono Alarms.
The team has chosen to take the Rongai route, which involves about 4,000 metres of ascent in just five days.
The Rongai Route is the longest and most scenic trekking route, and an early start on the last day will see the team reaching the highest point at Uhuru Peak (5894m).
Funds raised will be invested into the club's enterprise programme and employability projects, which will support young people to go into further training or employment.
To donate to the Kilimanjaro challenge, visit kili4kidz.co.uk and follow the group on Twitter and Facebook.

BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- Have you heard? Stocks are doomed. Or at least that's the story that most investors are still sticking to in 2013. >>5 Toxic Stocks You Need to Sell Despite all the scariness in stocks right now -- and I'll concede that there is some scariness -- the evidence points to more upside in Mr. Market for the foreseeable future. There's a big difference this time around, though. With the S&P 500 up more than double since its lowest point in 2009, the stakes are a lot higher for investors who aren't paying attention. Thing is, this massive rally hasn't been fueled by retail cash pouring into the stock market by the dump truck-full. So far, most individual investors have been sitting on the sidelines. At some point, though, that's going to change, and when it does, the money flow into stocks is going to accelerate the uptrend in the broad market. >>Fight Your Urge to Fight the Fed Today, I want to bust the myths that may be holding you back from buying stocks. Myth 1: Everyone Already Loves Stocks Don't confuse the 11% climb year-to-date in the S&P with investors loving stocks. They don't. By and large, investors see the climb in the broad market as a reason to be concerned about a correction, not a reason to pile into what they mistakenly see as a "crowded trade." I'm not just talking about individual investors, though. Wall Street hates stocks too. >>3 Huge Stocks on Traders' Radars Strategist stock allocations, a measure of how strategists at investment firms are recommending clients allocate their portfolios to stocks, are currently at 45.8%. That means that Wall Street is recommending that investors keep less than half of their money in the stock market in the middle of a rally. For context, that's less love for stocks than strategists showed back in the depths of 2009. Compare that with the lofty 72% that Wall Street recommended putting into stocks back in 2001. And the metric came off of an all-time low in the middle of last year. Face it, the pros don't really like stocks right now.

Reviews forChewy Oatmeal Cookies
My Review
Average Rating
"Fantastic cookie. I had a bunch of almonds that I wanted to use up so I added those instead of pecans and added a little almond extract, too. All in all, this is a great recipe and one I'll keep."
"For the life of me, I cannot understand how this recipe got so many good reviews. The cookies are flat and stick to everything. They will not come off the cookie sheet, without breaking apart. I was baking these to send to DH's office. That's not possible now, as they are in pieces and the ugliest cookies I've ever baked. Total waste of time (which I did not have) and waste of money for ingredients (which I have less of). BTW, I'm in my sixties, and a very experienced baker. Do not waste your time or money, find another recipe."
"OMG, these are the best cookies ever.... I used chopped pecan's, coconut and oats. My man usually doesn't like what I bake, but, I kid you not he has been chowing down on these. Yes they are flat, but, hey each bite you could taste the amazing flavor's. I hear people complaining. One who was a seasoned baker stated maybe if cinnamon was in the recipe. (guess she missed that one) lol.I gave these cookies to the ladies at the vet's today and they are begging for the recipe.... By far the best chewy oatmeal cookies. Oh and they are better than the one's you can find in a box in the bakery department at Wal-Mart.And they passed my 4 yr old grandson's taste...."
"Chewy and delicious!"
"These are one of my most favorite cookies! They are soft and chewy and use REAL butter, which I like as well. The combination of raisins, pecans and chocolate chips make the cookies extra delicious. I highly recommend these cookies."
"I am "seasoned" baker, but this recipe was missing the taste. Maybe some cinnamon? Didn't taste like anything. Besides that, they came out flat after leaving them in the refrigerator overnight and then bringing them to room temp. I left out the chocolate chips and instead used raisins. What a waste of ingredients."
"This recipie was horrible!!! Cookies were flat and unapealing. I gave it 1 stare because i had to ."
"The cookies were much more than I expected in the since of being exceptional. My family loved them! The only change I made was by taking the advise of the other reviewers and adding a little bit more flour. I added about 1/4 additional flour. Like I said the cookies were amazing! Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!"

The large documents I've done in the past (product manuals and such) used automatic index generation in LaTeX. You add a tag to text that needs an index entry: To fix this problem, frobnitz the foobar<index>foobar</index>. and then the index will have an entry for "foobar" that references this page, along with any other pages where <index>foobar</index> appears. <index>foobar</index> doesn't affect the visible text on the page however. Assuming that our SGML tools can do something similar, this would seem like the way to go. Getting the docs marked up initially would be a painful task, but once it's done it'd be relatively easy for doco contributors to include appropriate index entries in new text. I think an index that's maintained separately from the text proper would be doomed to failure ... regards, tom lane

intel also plans to release a 50w low power version of its clovertown quad-core processor in just two weeks. the quad-core xeon today stands alone in claiming the x86 quad-core server chip crown, prompting intel to place its "unmatched" label on the xeon emblem. nevertheless, amd plans to release barcelona within months, and hopes to dethrone clovertown with its own native quad-core die.

you don't have to look much past the overclockability of the core2's to see that intel could be releasing faster chips. they choose not to because of the lack of competition. the day that amd releases something that can beat the core2duo, intel will release a speed-bump.

intel. hands down.
there are only a few reasons that anyone would buy from amd right now:
1) you work for amd, and would hate to look foolish in front of your coworkers when they come over for pizza
2) you have a contract in place to purchase amd-based boxes at a very favorable price
3) you have moral or religious objections to buying intel
4) you have an irrational fear of that little "ding ding ding ding!" tone that intel uses in their ads.

i give full credit to amd just for the very fact they're giving or gave intel a run for their money considering intel a gaint in its own right and with billions of dollar$ pushed into r&d. any company that can give intel a fright is worthy of praise. i'm an amd fan even though it's getting its a$$ kicked for now but i'm banking on their next release to prove something as judging by their history they have managed to come out on top when they needed to. does nm the only factor to consider when looking at chips or does the whole architecture play a more important role? amd seems to have something going with the new layout of it's quadcore cpus but as usual it's left to the benchmarking to determine true king and queen…really love this forum, always very informing about what the public thinks about products we throw hard earned cash into. – by xanatos

|amd vs intel (7:46pm est thu feb 22 2007)
discussing amd vs intel days is a bit like arguing whether ferrari is better than a porsche. both are very fast, one is better r than the other in many things, but not all, and most important of all, in most cases you can't drive either fast enough to know the difference.
why are we arguing about chips when most of us still have 7200rpm hard drives, the real bottle neck of any system? – by bookgoldminecom
|amd vs intel (9:49pm est thu feb 22 2007)
ferrari vs porsche.. clearly you either don't know anything about cars or don't know a thing about computers
amd is closer to chrysler and intel closer to toyota…. they both have some high end models but today toyota cleans cryslers clock at the high end. sure if you want a cheapo basic transportation you can argue that amd meets your need. but so does my 900meghz pentiumiii that i type on right now.
the bottom line is when intel executes they can't be beaten even when amd is at the top of their game. the leading edge performance requires you execute on evertying. why is this even being debated? amd simply doesn't have the resources to compete on design and process. it was intels to screw up, they did it mightly for a few years but they have their mojo back. amd stock at what 14 bucks.. it'll be below 10 bucks by end of year no question once penrym family launches and fall further with nehalem. – by lex

fdc- you're right – they'll release the 45nm just to keep the performance crown… or maybe equal amd's new chip, we don't know what that will do yet. – by davethejackal
|lex (10:20pm est thu feb 22 2007)
if you're right and you're an intel employee you must be over the moon, otherwise, if amd are forced out of the market you'll be stuck with the rest of us poor saps when the intel tech freezes/price hikes hit.
let's hope you're wrong. – by davethejackal

|amd cache (1:33am est fri feb 23 2007)
i was just reading about the cache latency here: http://www.lostcircuits.com/cpu/amd
it seems like a very big performance sacrifice, but at least it appears their power consumption is in control. also their die size is more suitable for higher volume manufacturing.
barcelona would be the big pivotal event in 2007. it is the make or break for amd and significantly affects intel as well. if barcelona is a bust, there is no good reason for intel to pull in its 45 nm. if it's a winner, intel may have no choice except to pull in 45 nm, but the damage is already done. – by fdc
|amd's 65 nano is in trouble too… (1:51am est fri feb 23 2007)
we also know, despite pleadings to the contrary, that amd's 65 nano proccess is having a few ramping issues.
firstly, the highest speed bins, ie 2.8 and 3.0 ghz are still on 90 nanos. if 65 nano was working, these would be on the smaller /cheaper / cooler process.
secondly, it was a very loose optical shrink. the 90 nano 2x512kb cache was +/- 180 mm^2 so at 65 nanos is should have been (for what is basically a pure optical shrink) +/- 95 mm^2 – in reality it's about 130 mm^2 – amd got a 30% shrink, when the should have had a 47% shrink – amd clearly had to relax a few layout rules to get this thing to work.
finally, the 65 nano parts are still in pretty short supply – it's getting better, but it's pretty clear productiion is not fully ramped.
taken together, i can't see any conclusion other than their 65 nano is slow out of the gate.
all this being said, i sure hope barcelona rocks.
i just picked up a bunch of x2 5200+ chips for $238 a pop – which is a killer deal, and if intel wipes out amd this kind of deal will be history.
imagine if barcelona does rock however…
can you imagine price wars where a 3.4 ghz 1600 mhz fsb conroe at say $315 is in smackdown mode against an equivalent amd part?
that would be sweeeeeeeet !! – by vorlon

yes that sounds right. asml's dry 193 nm tools for 300 mm span a resolution range of 20%. squaring this gives roughly 35% of area shrink play. intel has the same shrink window. – by fdc

"if you're right and you're an intel employee" …. hmmmm… seems like everyone who thinks intel is good, has good products, and is currently better than amd is an intel employee ….
jeez, this kinda rant got you a discharge to dodge serving in iraq??? – by iknowiamright
|lex (6:27am est fri feb 23 2007)
you obviously misunderstood the analogy. the point is that a ferrari may be faster than a porsche, but that in most cases you won't be able to tell anyway because you're 99% of the time you're not gunning it, you're running at or near the speed limit.
the vast majority of users don't sit around waiting around for the cpu to finish its work, we wait around on much slower disks.
and by the way, amd's stock price isn't being hurt by intel's performance advantage, it's being hurt by the ongoing price war. amd and intel sold more chips than ever last quarter, and both took a huge profit margin loss. amd fared worse than intel, but they should see some sunnier days with the price savings of using 65nm. – by bookgoldminecom

"jeez, this kinda rant got you a discharge to dodge serving in iraq???", you're serving there? i had no idea intel was a sponsor of war! hell i'm british, wish we'd never gotten involved in vietnam 2 in the first place. – by davethejackal
|iknowutalksh!te (8:27am est fri feb 23 2007)
… and you're obviously behind of your post reading.
my point is that any market that's a monopoly is bad for the consumer, not that amd/intel are necessarily better/worse than the other, even if, for now, intel has the better products.
lets face it they've done good with core2, but it wouldn't have happened without the competition. you might say the same about amd64 and the xp before that.
now, stop being a jackass fanboi and pretending that if amd folds it ain't going to happen. if it didn't happen, with intel alone in the market place intel's ceo should be fired. they're a business for crying out loud, not a charity. they're there to make money for their shareholders and as much of it as they can, not to give us new toys to play with. – by davethejackal

aside from pretty translucence (translucence can be a problem when background color behind window makes stuff on window you're using hard to see or impossible to see…), i don't see any reason why a person would want to upgrade an xp mschine to vista.
this new machine has the amd dual core 5200 cpu, 2 ghz memory, bla, bla, bla, and i still have to wait too long for it to do stuff :-)

|what idiots (1:09pm est mon feb 26 2007)
real geeks will always buy performance, be it computational units per units of time performance, computational units per units of heat performance, of computational units per units of cost performance. performance regardless of whose company name is on the box.
politicians and activist (aka fanboys), they will buy who ever's name is on the box that the like and then spin doctor some bullshit story which takes one or more of the prementioned fairly clear cut performance stories and turns it into something it isn't to support their bullshit political position.
i bought an amd for my last cpu when they had the performance crown, today i'd buy an intel for the exact same reasons. money really isn't a factor for me, niether is heat, i just want the fastest cpu i can buy when i'm ready to buy a new pc which is about every 3 years. over the course of my life i've bought amd only one time because they have been in the lead only one time when i happened to be buying. a story that i know is not unique to myself which is part of why intel's bank account is so much bigger then amd's.
this isn't a political position or any kind of stupid corporate activism , it's just a lifelong geek spending his money on the best cpu's his money can buy. – by ee92

Another ten more inches of snow fell in Columbia on Sunday. That puts Mid-Missouri's total at about 30 inches since our first big wave of snow on February 21st. ABC 17 Stormtrack Meteorologist Neville Miller says the extended forecast this week looks much better, with highs reaching the 50's and maybe even 60 by the weekend.
While 60 degrees seems warm, Miller points out that's actually the average for this time of year.

So I just finished Christopher Hitchens' memoir, Hitch-22. It was an exhilarating read that left me with one overwhelming thought:
I don't know anything. Every page of his book had ten references that could keep me reading and learning for 3 months without interruption. What you get most from reading Hitchens is the feeling that you are morbidly uneducated and clueless about history and literature.
One could posit that this is precisely the effect he was hoping to have on the reader, i.e. "Look how smart I am.", but I don't think that's it. I think he is, more than anything, saying "look how interesting the world is".
And I agree with him.
I certainly hope his cancer does not turn out to be as deadly as everyone is saying it is. He supposedly has less than five years to live, at which point he'll succumb to esophageal cancer just as his father did before him.
If that does happen I will be very sad. I want to see far more from Christopher Hitchens. ::

Disney's The Lion King on Broadway Remains a 'Four-Paws-Up' BlockbusterDecember 20, 2011 - by Griffin Miller, Theatre Editor
On October 15, 1997, The Lion King opened the doors to its first Broadway preview. It was not just a moment theatrical dreams are built upon, but a pivotal moment in which the already beloved story of Simba, the cub who would be king (in the animated 1994 Disney hit and a half), officially staked its claim on the Great White Way.
From the show's inaugural chords, marked by baboon shaman Rafiki's hypnotic chant "Nants ingonyama bagithi baba" ("Here comes a lion") juxtaposed on a golden South African savanna daybreak, audiences were spellbound. Within seconds, the visual ante quadrupled with the arrival of bounding animals in the wild: birds soaring, gazelles leaping, zebras, lions, giraffes, and on and on... a brilliantly abstract menagerie that beckoned theatregoers to enter the "Circle of Life." And once the scene zeroed in on the hub of the leonine stamping grounds known as The Pridelands, they were sold.
No wonder, by opening night, the production was already a word-of-mouth success. The Lion King legacy was assured, and eventually confirmed, by six 1998 Tony Awards (including Best Musical). Fourteen years (and counting) later, the musical (not surprisingly) remains one of Broadway's hottest tickets.
With characters like Zazu (the hornbill who serves as the king's major domo), Timon (the fast-talking meerkat), Pumbaa (a portly, congenial warthog), and Nala (Simba's childhood friend/adult love interest) -- all introduced in the film of the same name -- the stage at The Minskoff Theatre transforms to a place where friendship and loyalty flourish.
Still, the relationship that resonates the most is the one between Simba and his father, Mufasa, the regal and wise King of Beasts played in the current Broadway company by Alton Fitzgerald White.
White, who originated the role on the first national tour and the recently launched Las Vegas production, says his take on Mufasa -- a character who dies in Act I and returns briefly in spirit form in Act II -- has changed considerably over the past ten years.
"Originally I thought Mufasa didn't have much to do, but I have since realized he's not only important, but a pervasive character throughout the show," observes the veteran actor, adding, "When I started playing the part in my 30s it was more about wanting to show off, to have more musical numbers and time onstage. Now that I'm in my 40s I see it differently. I've learned to go deeper; to show authority while at the same time tapping into what my character has to say. His words to Simba are chosen very carefully."
White's observation comes to vivid light during the scene in which Mufasa tells his son, "...[T]he great kings of the past look down on us... so whenever you feel alone, just remember those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I." It's this touching observation with its poignant sentiment that emerges as the key ancestral through line of the show that is echoed in the song "They Live in You."
It's also one of the reasons the show has multi-generational appeal and qualities that make it the perfect family show, despite what kids would call "the scary parts."
In fact, White has found that parents frequently use the traditional post-show stage door visits as an opportunity to reassure younger children that Mufasa -- or at least the actor who embodies him -- is alive. "It's important to remember that for all the fantasy in the show, it also deals with real issues and violence," he says, "and kids do get sucked into the storyline and violence of Mufasa's death and Simba almost dying at the hands of the hyenas. Seeing me in person gives them a sense of relief."
Over his decade with the show, White estimates he's played father to 15 to 20 Young Simbas, the first wave of which are now slipping into adulthood. "It's thrilling to see these kids as they grow up," he says of the actors -- ranging in age from nine to 12 -- he's worked with. When asked if any have returned to the show as the grown-up Simba, he acknowledges that while it hasn't occurred yet, "I suspect that some of them will be moving into the older role pretty soon."
The Lion King is playing at the Minskoff Theatre, 200 W. 45th St. For tickets, call 866-870-2717 or click here.

Monet at workMonetthe Impressionists
If you're familiar with any of the Impressionists, chances are it's the paintings of Monet that spring to mind, be they of waterlilies or grain stacks imbued with that magical light of which the genre was so fond of capturing.
While his paintings are unmistakable, though, how likely is it that you would recognize the man himself?
The website Monet has a collection of photographs from the painter's life, ranging from the man himself to the countryside that inspired him, which offer a fascinating glimpse into one of the most recognizable painters of the time.

Office Hours:
Monday-Friday, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
The County Probate Judge exercises jurisdiction over cases of informal probate as necessary to properly settle estates of deceased persons. The Probate Judge also may conduct marriage ceremonies.
Probate seeks to prove the existence of a valid will or determine who legal heirs are if no will exists. Probate's function is to transfer a decedent's property to heirs or beneficiaries. Probate is not necessary if the estate is $50,000 or less and there is no real property (land).
Another function of probate is to provide a mechanism for paying any outstanding debts, setting a deadline for creditors to file claims against the estate and distributing the remainder of the property to rightful heirs.
After a case has been reviewed, the Probate Judge may order the probate of a will and appointment of a personal representative or executor of the estate. The Probate Court tries to comply with requests for help and service.

Edward Hopper, one of the most well-known 20th century artists, played a key role in bridging the gap between traditionalists and modernists. His work is rooted in realism but his streamlined compositions capture the essence of modern American life. The exhibition focuses solely on Hopper and the evolution of his work over a lifetime, giving visitors a deeper insight into the man, his process, and his art. Approximately 45 pieces will be on display including watercolors, etchings, sketches, and oil paintings.
In an innovative collaborative program with The Glimmerglass Festival, the Museum is showcasing the work of Edward Hopper to coincide with the Festival's presentation of Later the Same Evening, an opera based on Hopper's paintings.

BRADENTON, FL. – A Suncoast teacher has been arrested for child abuse after an incident at Bradenton school.
Detectives have arrested 30-year-old Colby Cadwell in connection with an incident that occurred on Tuesday at Horizons Academy School in Bradenton with a 13-year-old male student.
The investigation revealed that the victim flinched at another student like he might hit the student. At that time, Cadwell grabbed the victim/student, threw him to the floor, then picked him up and physically threw him out of the classroom.
The incident was reported to the principal of the school who in turn reported it the school resource deputy.
Cadwell was arrested on Thursday at his Bradenton residence and charged with Child Abuse.

With less than a minute on the clock, Man of the Match Jack Wilson, set up Daniel Nelson who lifted the ball over the advancing Justin Glass in the Bann goal.
But seven minutes later Clark Neville drilled home Bann's first penalty corner to level the score.
And in the 13th minute Johnny McKee finished off a delightful solo run to edge Bann into the lead.
With Bann still in the driving seat at half time it was all Wallace in the second half, as the pegged Bann back and piece of brilliance from Jack Wilson saw him level the game in the 50th minute.
Bann were far from finished and with 10 minutes remaining they were back in the lead this time Aaron Reid popping the ball in a the far post.
Then disaster, right on the whistle Wallace won a penalty corner and at the second attempt Sean Murray slid the ball home for the equaliser.
After 10 minutes of extra time in was still undecided and to the dreaded penalty shoot out which saw Andrew O'Hare score the all important goal, to give Wallace the Burney Cup to add to the McCullough Cup titel.
