Deyki's Make-A-Wish - 12/15 - Maybe not
Hi everyone Wow! These boards can be overwhelming with all the awesome info and incredible stories! I am glad I stumbled upon it in my on-line searches today.
I guess I will introduce my crew first. I am a single mom to three adopted children - maybe soon to be four. Nidra is 10. She was my first foster child, and I was happily surprised to be able to adopt her. She is friendly, helpful, inquisitive, and a joy to be around. Chantae is 7. She is a smart, articulate, gentle hearted child. Michelle may be my fourth child. I have had guardianship of her since February, and her mom just asked me if I would keep her. We will be talking more next week. Michelle is profoundly deaf because of meningitis and two strokes in infancy. She is a year old now and recently got bilateral cochlear implants. She is doing amazingly well and is even starting to use a few words! Then there is Deyki - my make-a-wish child. Deyki is 5. He came to me at 6 months old after spending 3 months in a nursing home for children. He was born addicted to cocaine and was diagnosed with sickle cell disease at a week old. Deyki has had about 36 hospital admissions for pain, blood transfusions, acute chest syndrome, asthma, pneumonia, spleen sequestrations, and other sickle cell complications. At two years old they removed his spleen because of repeated life threatening events where he almost bled out into his damaged, greatly enlarged spleen. Living without a spleen leaves him immune compromised, but it was the best option. At three years old Deyki was diagnosed with Chiari 1 Malformation. At four he was diagnosed with moya moya syndrome. A year ago this week we started Deyki on hydroxyurea, an oral chemotherapy med to help with his blood counts. It has worked really well. His moya moya is improving - almost gone. He has only been admitted once for pain and three times for illness this past year. He isn't in as often now, but when he is admitted he is a lot sicker. We spent this Christmas in the PICU and were back there again a week or so after Easter. To top it all off, Deyki has multiple life-threatening food allergies that make it tough to feed him anywhere but at home. Last week Deyki asked his hematologist if he could have a Make-A-Wish, and she said yes. I e-mailed a referral to our local branch and heard back from them the next day. They faxed the paperwork to his doctor on Thursday and said they would call again when she sends it back. Deyki wants to go to Disney and spend his birthday with Spidey. He hopes to ride the Spiderman ride with Spidey himself. He wants to fight Darth Vadar with a light saber. We are eagerly awaiting the call back from MAW. I don't know if it's unrealistic to hope they could coordinate all this by his birthday in October or not. We will be at the hospital for the baby next week. Maybe I will be able to find out if they receive the FAX from MAW this week. It all seems fairly surreal right now! Last edited by MomTo4+more; 12-15-2009 at 01:31 PM. Reason: revised title |

I would love to hear from anyone who has done the parks with little ones and older ones. I am debating whether or not to bring our one year old. I am sure there are parts of it she would enjoy, but I think she would end up spending a lot of time sitting in the stroller while the older children have fun. I have thought about maybe bringing a sitter along for her, but then I wonder if it wouldn't be better for her to stay here and continue her therapies. Then I look at her sweet brown eyes, and I know I would miss her.
We have plenty of time to decide. I would love to read about anyone's experience in this area. |

Hi, I am from the wish tripper's thread and I am happy you guys are getting a wish. I am doing Disney in July with a two year old. I have no doubt that you will be able to get October. Mya was supposed to go on her wish trip then, but then she relapsed and in a day they moved her trip up to July. Make A Wish is very capable and flexible. Feel free to stop by Mya's thread or pm me if you have any questions or need anything.

I answered the question first and then read your story.
Wow...I just have a huge heart for you guys that adopt special needs kids. I can't imagine anyone living their childhood in a nursing home. Makes me want to buy a huge house and bring them all home to live with me. I digress. It sounds like Deyki (how do you pronounce that? DEE-key?) has had his share of very difficult times. I am so glad that you guys are going to be able to go to Disney! I do think they will be able to work it out so that you guys are able to go in October. They seem to be moving very fast on your paperwork so far. I am not sure what state you are in...but we have had families from across the country and Canada and I think most were able to be granted a wish fairly quickly. October is a great time to go to Disney. Anytime is a great time to go to Disney, really! |

Thanks Maroo. I did find that link in your sig and read LOTS yesterday. I didn't know if there was a seperate category or just threads within categories. I love reading the stories of the wish families. They make me so eager to go and enjoy time without the hospital and daily concerns.
We pronounce his name "day-key". We are in IL. I saw another family or two from IL on here. It's funny that you mention getting a big house and getting the kids out of nursing homes. It's not too far off from what happened to us! I had a small two bedroom condo with the three children I have adopted, but I wanted to care for more children. Amazingly, the agency I am with had a big 4 bedroom Victorian with a large yard right in the city that they were able to give me. I moved in two years ago and have cared for lots of children for short terms since then. The baby I have now is our 53rd child - including the three I adopted. It's been a wonderful time - never a dull moment! And to think that when I started the foster care journey, I didn't think I could handle special needs. I didn't think I would adopt either for that matter. Life is full of surprises!

Hi! I was an Angel (volunteer) at Give Kids the World and a Cast Member at Disney. I currently volunteer with MAW. You state that your trip is through them. If you are a single parent MAW should pay for another adult to go. At least, our chapter does. I would definitely ask so that you can take Michelle.
One thing I witnessed over and over again as a Cast Member was the healing power of Disney. So many kids with special needs will have breakthroughs there- it is its own kind of therapy. She may not remember, but if she is going to be your forever child, I think that in the future she will love looking at pictures of this special time. As for your dates, I don't think coordinating for Deyki's birthday would be much of a problem. I'm assuming he's not considered terminal so there would be no rush on his dates. The only snafu might be if Give Kids the World is already booked up, but because so many kids are school aged I can't imagine October being much of an issue. Hopefully he'll be able to go on his birthday!

Yeah, somebody else from Illinois!!!!!!
We are from the Round Lake area just west of Gurnee. Working currently with the Illinois Chapter of MaW, feel free to ask any questions. I found that getting accepted and meeting the Wish cordinator's happened very first. (With in two weeks) but then we ended up waiting for almost three months to get out dates. Now that being said, I think they look at every case seperatly and try to fit the needs of the families. Though my son has CF, he is doing real good and there is no real rush to get down there. I am also a single parent, and they will definatly let you bring another adult. Trust me, I only have three and I don't think I would have my sanity in tact when I returned from Florida. Can't wait to hear more!!!!!

Your children are gorgeous!!!! Can't wait to hear what MAW says!!!!! You guys are going to have a blast. We just came back from our first trip last month. I just wanted to say that we have 4 kids and they range in age from 5 to 12.I know you said you were not sure if you were going to take your 1 yr old. I don't have a 1 yr old, but I can say that our big age gaps were not a problem at all. My 12 yr old was more than happy to stand in lines for the Princesses for his little sisters and my 5 yr old little girl was more than happy to watch Lights Motor Action for her big brother. We were in Disney and we were all Happy there together and all was well.
Can't wait to hear more about the trip. And keep the pics coming, the kids are too cute.

The picture you posted is beautiful! Great shot! Congratulations to Deyki! ( may have misspelled his name, but I can't see it right now) Your question about bringing your 1 year old.....I brought our 2 year old and sadly she spent most of her time waiting around while the 2 older ones were hopping on rides. On most of the rides, we had to take turns going on them, as one of us would stay with the 2 year old. It was a pain, but, like you said, you don't want to leave without her either! Go with your gut on this one. It's a tough decision! I hope you get the October dates that you want!

The Supreme Court will decide January 10 whether or not to hear a petition to overturn the Obama administration's pilot program for long-distance trucking across the U.S.-Mexico border.
The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association is asking the court to overturn a lower court's decision that upheld the program.
In that decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia rejected a petition by OOIDA and the Teamsters Union to declare the program illegal.
OOIDA and the Teamsters have been fighting the border opening since it was included in the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994.
The current pilot program permits Mexican carriers that have met safety standards set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to provide long-distance service to and from the U.S. It is designed to prove that the agency's standards will ensure safe operation by Mexican carriers.
There are 14 Mexican carriers with either permanent or provisional authority in the program.
The appeals court rejected OOIDA's contention that the program's licensing, medical and drug test requirements are inadequate.
The Supreme Court Justices have scheduled a conference on January 10 to vote on the OOIDA petition, among others.

Racism possible motive in recent murder, shooting
The suspect admitted to both crimes, stating that the victims were "acting suspicious."
LEWISVILLE The man arrested and charged with murdering a man in Flower Mound and shooting a man in Lewisville told police he felt the victims were acting suspiciously, according to police records.
Lewisville police arrested Anthony Tricong Huynh, 40, Saturday in connection with a shooting that took place early that morning in Lewisville.
Police believe he is also connected to the murder of a Justin man that took place January 1 in Flower Mound. In that incident, Darnell Lamont White, 55, was shot in his vehicle, which was parked in a strip mall parking lot in the 500 block of Flower Mound Road. He died from his injuries the next morning.
Huynh was booked into the Denton County jail, and his bond was set at $1.5 million for the three offenses.
According to reports issued by the Lewisville Police Department, police responded to a call at 2:30 a.m. Saturday regarding a man being shot in the hip as he was driving his Kia Soul in the parking lot of the Suburban Extended Stay, 1920 Lakepoint Drive in Lewisville. The man, 42-year-old Andre Williams, drove himself to the hospital for treatment.
Williams' condition has not been released, but the injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
Police interviewed the victim and said he was shot for no apparent reason. Detectives reviewed video from the parking lot and identified the suspect as Huynh, who was a guest in the hotel.
Police searched Huynh's room and located several items, including a Beretta 92FS 9mm handgun, and multiple boxes of UMC ammunition.
Lewisville police arrested Huynh and charged him with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, as well as unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon.
According to an arrest warrant, Huynh told police he looked out his bedroom window at the hotel and saw Williams sitting in his car. Huynh then grabbed his flashlight and gun and went into the parking lot.
"The defendant reported that as the victim drove past the defendant, the defendant felt fear and fired shots at the vehicle," the report states.
Huynh told police he then went back to his room to watch television.
Lewisville police contacted Flower Mound police once they determined Huynh's vehicle matched the one Flower Mound police believed was used by the shooter in the January 1 murder.
During an interview with Lewisville police, Huynh admitted to both shootings, police records state.
According to a probable cause affidavit, Huynh discussed the January 1 murder.
He said he observed White sitting in his vehicle in the parking lot of Target of FM 3040, where White worked. Huynh said he believed White was casing the store or customers/employees and was acting suspiciously.
The report stated that Huynh followed White as he left Target and followed him west on FM 3040 into Flower Mound. Huynh said he used his flashlight's strobe feature, which police said may be the reason White pulled into the strip mall parking lot.
The report stated that Huynh pulled up next to White, and when White started to get out of his car, Huynh shot him because Huynh could not see his right hand. Huynh said he shot him several times.
"Mr. White worked at Target, got off work and was sitting in his car," said Capt. Kurt Labhart of the Flower Mound Police Department. "That's when Mr. Huynh thought Mr. White was casing the store. But at no time did we believe that Mr. White was involved in any criminal activity."
Huynh told police he then drove back to his hotel and disposed of the 9mm casings. Police found one spent 9 mm casing in Huynh's car.
The report also stated that Huynh told police he confronted the Lewisville victim because he also felt like he was acting suspiciously.
"His determination of what is suspicious may or not be to [others] but to him it was," Labhart said.
The report stated that both of the victims are black, and Huynh is Asian. Huynh told police he has had more difficulty with black people being confrontational with him and following him around.

buy a jolly rancher at your local gas station. screw in a long thin screw to a small portion of the jolly rancher, small enough to fit in the garbage can without touching any of the sides. wet the end of the jolly rancher and set it on the plastic helmet in the garbage can. wait a day for it to dry, then pull the helmet out, and soak it in water to ...

Second Saturday Silent Cinema presents: Beyond the Rocks
See this great silent film the way it was meant to be seen! With live organ accompaniment by Dennis Scott.
Named by Chicago Magazine as the Best New Film Series of 2011 and recently hailed by the Chicago Reader's J.R. Jones as one of the best movie matinee series in the city, the Music Box Silent Cinema Series is presented on the second Saturday of each month at noon.
All films are shown "authentically" in 35mm at proper silent film speed and aspect ratio with live accompaniment by Dennis Scott at the Music Box Theatre organ.
Tickets are $10 for adults, $8 for students.
Beyond the Rocks
directed by Sam Wood starring Gloria Swanson, Rudolph Valentino
This silent romance starring film legends Gloria Swanson and Rudolph Valentino was long considered one of the great "lost" films from the Hollywood golden age; only a one-minute fragment was known to exist.
Lost for over eighty years, film cataloguers at the Nederlands Filmmuseum were amazed to find the first two nitrate reels of Beyond the Rocks when inventorying a vast collection of nitrate bequeathed to them by a film collector. The Filmmuseum staff then searched for many tense months until they found and identified all the missing reels of the film.
Lovingly restored, see this stunning tale of romance once again!

I'm Ashley (McMillan) Weightman. I grew up in the small town of Wimbledon, North Dakota. In 2005 I moved to Bismarck to go to school where I graduated from the University of Mary with a Bachelors Degree in Communications and Business. I began working at the CBS affiliate as a reporter while in college and spent three years there. From CBS, I moved to Devils Lake to work at WDAZ-TV for a year, before continuing to work at WDAZ in Grand Forks. I married the love of my life Travis on June 23, 2012 and we now live in Bismarck with our three year old son, Corbin. Travis works at KXMB-TV and I at KLJ Engineering and attend Rasmussen College where I'm pursing a Bachelors Degree in Human Resources Management and Organizational Leadership.
Weight has been a struggle for me since I can remember. I do well for a while and then fall off the wagon. Four years ago I lost nearly 50lbs and was doing great. Two months after maintaining my weight, I found out that I was pregnant and gained 70lbs in nine months. I figured after I had Corbin, some of the pounds would fall off. Corbin weight 8lbs 12oz and I only lost 3lbs. Ever since December of 2009, I've been doing fad diets for about a month, trying the gym on and off, and eat healthy and nothing seems to be working. I've recently had some health issues and my doctor told me that in order to have more children and be a part of my children's life, I need to lose weight, but most importantly, I need to do it for me.
A&E's hit show Storage Wars is rigged - at least according to a lawsuit filed by Dave Hester.In the lawsuit obtained by TMZ, the former host claims that he was fired from the series after complaining to producers about the alleged rigged practices, which he says include producers planting valuable items in the units. In one instance, Hester states that producers planted a BMW mini car underneath a heap of garbage.Photos: Everybody's posing nude! Check out Rihanna and other stars who've bared allFurthermore, Hester alleges that the show paid for certain cast members to get plastic surgery to "create more sex appeal."A&E declined to discuss the lawsuit, explaining: "We do not comment on pending litigation."This isn't Hester's first legal entanglement this year. In June, the reality star settled a lawsuit against singer Trey Songz over rights to the catchphrase "YUUUP!"Do you think Storage Wars is rigged?

Double Trouble
The actor we came to love as the snobby, evil antagonist in the
ever-popular Harry Potter movies had not originally planned on playing
Draco Malfoy. "I auditioned to play Harry, and I didn't get that,
obviously. I went for Ron, and didn't get that, either. They said to
try Malfoy, so I did and voila! I got the part," Tom said.
Upon getting the part, he worked hard to put himself in his
character's shoes. To practice for the part of Draco, he would get one
of his three older brothers to make him angry. On the set, too, Tom
would resort to memories of his siblings to get him riled up. "I
thought about all kinds of stuff that my brothers used to do. Usually
brotherly stuff. It makes you get angry and a little nastier."
After getting into the role mentally, Tom had to endure a
physical change, too. He grew out his hair and, when filming, his hair
was bleached twice a week. He even used a pot of gel every day.
"My head's been plastered with the stuff - I use a pot a day, half in
the morning just to get it all waxed up and of course by the time you
walk around it sort of just breaks off and they slab on another ton of
the stuff. Awful really."
Despite the hair gel, Tom loves portraying Draco in the Harry
Potter series. "It felt a bit different really, because when you think
of 'Harry Potter', you think it's a nice children's film starring nice
characters. But I'm the one that goes against all that. But I think
Draco is always going to be a real nasty little snob really!"

Working Paper | HBS Working Paper Series | 2010
by Diego A. Comin, Norman Loayza, Farooq Pasha and Luis Serven
We build a two-country asymmetric DSGE model with two features: (i) endogenous and slow diffusion of technologies from the developed to the developing country, and (ii) adjustment costs to investment flows. We calibrate the model to match the Mexico-U.S. trade and FDI flows. The model is able to explain the following stylized facts: (i) U.S. and Mexican output co-move more than consumption; (ii) U.S. shocks have a larger effect on Mexico than in the U.S.; (iii) U.S. business cycles lead over medium term fluctuations in Mexico; (iv) Mexican consumption is more volatile than output.

Menendez calls for upgrades at Teterboro
U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez wants the Obama administration to pay for a new traffic tower at Teterboro Airport that would give controllers improved visibility and provide them with more modern equipment.
In a letter to President Obama on Wednesday, Menendez asked that money be included in the administration's fiscal year 2011 budget request, citing two recent crashes involving Teterboro as inspiration for upgrading the small but busy airport.
Menendez did not offer specifics, but air traffic controllers say the Federal Aviation Administration should build a tower anywhere from 10 feet to 50 feet higher so they see over trees surrounding the airport.
The existing 34-year-old structure is about 100 feet tall, though controllers say the height of the tower was not a factor in an Aug. 8 air collision over the Hudson River that killed nine people.
"Investing in a new tower now will be a down payment on meaningful safety improvements for decades to come," Menendez wrote in the letter.
Two weeks after the Aug. 8 crash, another small plane crashed outside the airport's gates. No one was injured in that incident.
A Senate Commerce Committee subcommittee on aviation held hearings on the crashes this week, and federal officials testified that the busy airport lacks updated equipment that could better track departing planes.
Members of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association were pleased with Menendez's recommendation, pointing out that Teterboro is one of the three busiest airports in the nation that cater to general aviation.
Dave Gioffe, the union's Teterboro representative, said controllers struggle to see planes arriving at the airport, and equipment used to measure wind occasionally offers "the wrong reading."
The wind-measurement equipment also is old and not digitalized, he said, making it susceptible to breakdowns and mistakes.

An overpriced vanity machine engineered for looks over utility - or the answer to your 4K prayers?
Unlike the vast majority of independent films, we decided to film "La Vie Nous Appartient" with a high-end camera - in this case, the Sony F65. This might have seemed a somewhat daunting task, considering our more than low budget, and our choice to film all by hand in a rocky terrain. But it was important to us to give our sensitive story the quality it deserved
This holiday we're re-running some of our most popular articles, in case you didn't see them the first time. Today: is Apple still frustrating professionals, or is the Mac Pro a genius way to win them back?
As the dust settles on another Apple World Wide Developer Conference the bulk of those that give a damn are dreaming of a lovely new interface for iOS whilst others are chatting excitedly about using the new MacBook Air for an entire long-haul flight without having to buy an airline power adapter. But what of the long-suffering TV or Film professional, so long the stalwart of the Apple ecosystem? Does the new MacPro finally give them real hope of a future that doesn't leave them dragging hopelessly behind their PC-based counterparts in power, flexibility and, in effect, competitiveness
Ever since the mishandling of the introduction of FCP X and the concurrent demise, resurrection, demise of Final Cut Studio it has felt like Apple has lost the love for our industry. Even though FCP X has seen great improvements from the difficult launch of the iMovie look-alike (which actually, apparently, shared very little code with its less-ambitious relative), the lack of a refresh for the MacPro has led many to believe that a future built on Apple was not a viable one at all. Now, finally, the announcement is made, the specs (or lack of) pawed over and the reaction is filtering in. Does anybody believe anything has changed?
Let's first look at the actual announcement and try and read between the lines. Experience will tell us that these types of announcements are deliberately vague, balanced to enthuse customers and, more pertinently, investors, whilst allowing plenty of wiggle room for adjusting specs prior to shipping.
In short, it is not always wise to expect the best. For example, many commentators have reported that the new chipset is based on Intel's Haswell micro architecture whereas there has been no public statement by Apple to support this. Indeed, the Haswell chips should give a times-four increase in performance over the current processor but Apple is only claiming a times-two improvement. Would they pass up a chance to stoke the market if they were committed to Haswell?
Similarly, Apple states that the new Processor is "the new-generation Intel Xeon E5 chipset" that doesn't yet exist. The C600 chipset does support the E5 family but officially only offers PCI-Express 2.0; yet Apple is claiming PCIe 3.0 capability in the new MacPro. So the situation is unclear but the new MacPro might just as likely be Ivy Bridge as Haswell.
Why does this matter? It only does in terms of Apple's approach and if you are a video pro looking for an indication that Apple are making a statement of a commitment to your business. If you have suffered the long wait for a hardware refresh it would be nice to see that Apple are leapfrogging the competition, rather than just playing catch-up.
In those terms, the other feature announcements are clearer and definitely more positive. PCIe-based Flash storage will boost storage performance well above the current offering and even beyond SATA 6G. It is unclear which AMD twin graphics cards will be used (unless a new one will be announced ready for shipping of the MacPro) but 60GB/s across four channels will handle the most demanding operations. On the face of it, looking optimistically at the announcements, this new machine is better, faster and smaller but, for video work, the demands are not always straightforward.
One of the biggest issues is flexibility: over the lifecycle of a piece of general purpose hardware we can expect to see several revs of GPU capability, codec releases and an unending demand for greater amounts and speeds of storage. Apple would point to the large number of high-speed connections of the new MacPro as their response to this very problem. In other words, you don't need to cram more into a bulging housing, you just hang more off it, as and when you need to. It's a beguiling argument but what do the pros think to it?
Lots of connections generally mean an expansion chassis, which tend to be big and 'boxy' with fans. Where else will the required Red Rocket cards, Raid Array Controllers and Raid Arrays go? So the nice new quiet designer-look MacPro on the desktop will come with cables dangling down to a big box with a big fan, or it goes in the machine room, in which case all the angst and hours that went into designing a groundbreaking new system leaves just one question - how does it go in a rack?
David Garcia, Creative Director at Halflife Digital doesn't see that as a huge issue: "We have several great setups working with iMacs and Macbooks with expansion chassis and mobile rigs. It doesn't seem like that's a huge problem and if Thunderbolt 2 supports GPUs in the chassis that is pretty much its last hurdle. But yeah, how do you put it in a rack?"
To rack or not to rack is an issue and there were rumours that the new MacPro would only be available as a rack unit. How seriously that was considered is something only insiders can tell us but clearly Apple has felt it necessary to stay in the desktop market. "It's their way of staying in the game without playing the game" thinks Parke Gregg, colorist and finisher at Stuck On On. "They've made a MacMini with a workstation processor and lots of expansion ports. This puts much of the 'pro' features on third parties and this is good a thing. As far as being rack-mountable, the current MacPro isn't either. The ones we have now simply lie on a shelf in the rack. This little Mac R2 unit [a reference to the new design's similarity to a certain holograph projecting droid- Ed] will just sit on that same shelf: I guess a few could."
The consensus therefore seems that, performance-wise and putting GPU support aside, the 'hang it all off' policy may work. There are, and will be, complaints but the only thing that will remove that is the price. If the pricing is aggressive and basically 'cheap', due to all of its integration, then people will look beyond the limitations; treating it as an expendable appliance.
Parke Gregg's take on that? "Every time we get a MacPro it ends up being about US$9000. I'm guessing this new MacPro will be about the same with an expansion chassis, etc. However, with this modular approach, the next time we upgrade, we won't have to buy all the modules again. I like this idea a lot."
Joel Hruska, in his ExtremeTech blog, counters that the new paradigm is actually going to be more expensive, at least initially: "The new reliance on Thunderbolt may be troubling for anyone who wasn't planning on upgrading all of their peripherals… This is the least expandable Mac Pro in decades. It may offer more Thunderbolt connectivity than any system ever has, but as far as compatibility with current-generation hardware, it'd be hard to find a workstation less expandable than this one."
So although there are gripes and likes what there doesn't seem to be, amongst those who use Apple, is a serious concern over its viability within their high-performance high-demand businesses. There is certainly concern over the limited option of GPUs but until the details come out as to the actual card and how well OpenCL is supported to match CUDA the jury is out.
Today, leading companies such as Adobe, Assimilate and Blackmagic Design have been updating their software to take advantage of either CUDA or OpenCL. Some of the camera vendor RAW SDKs use OpenCL, some use CUDA. Other companies, like The Foundry, GenArts or Cinnafilm, currently only offer CUDA versions. In addition large companies like Industrial Light & Magic and Weta Digital create CUDA-based tools for their own use to create fast, efficient pipelines for their artists: they will be keeping a close eye on the GPU situation.
It is worth stating that Thunderbolt 2.0 is not fast enough to run high-resolution real-time graphics processors externally. So, having bought that expansion chassis and hung it off the back of the Mac Pro, it will still not be possible to get the kind of performance one would with an onboard graphics card.
Apple have trumpeted loudly on the new architecture's ability to run three 4K displays simultaneously without slowing down operations. This is very likely true for video editing and there is many an editor that will salivate at the idea of spreading their bins over such a large desktop area but, and it is a big but, the whole idea does sort of play back into the starting question of how seriously is Apple taking the Pro market? Are they only concerned about FCP X (of course, Avid, Adobe et al also benefit, although any users of 3rd party cards will have to expensively upgrade to Thunderbolt 2)?
The trite answer is, naturally, yes, their first thought is to their remaining professional video app, and serving its users. And of the flexibility that pro users require? Apple seems to be following their standard line of 'build it powerful and sexy enough that they (the customer) will overlook the shortcomings', but this could be an error. What if, for example, people find their systems slowing down at critical times as their GPU accelerated applications share resources with their expensive 4K Displays?
Is this where additional GPUs in the expansion chassis come into play? We don't yet know the answer to this but it is a concern and it does remind us that, in all probability, by purchasing a new Mac Pro for professional work, one will be simply creating a shopping list for peripherals.

After I saw another member's version of Alexis with stripes I had to make one for myself. This was my first Burdastyle pattern and I think it turned out rather well. The pattern was pretty easy to follow and the end result looks great. I have leftover fabric so I made a bow for a headband and am thinking about making a bag as well.

Members of the newly formed Student Ambassador Club at JN Fries Magnet School recently wrapped up their third community service initiative since forming earlier this school year.
The service club for grades 6-8 attracted roughly 20 students who are interested in strengthening the student community through bully-prevention and by providing opportunities to assist those less fortunate.
The club, created by Cathy Eveland – an 18-year Cabarrus County School counselor and 11-year Harrisburg resident – began with a drive to collect pet food for Petey's Promise, a local nonprofit that has helped feed more than 4,000 animals since forming in 2008.
In 2012, Chase Carey, the son of the nonprofit's founder Liz Mellot, set a Guinness World Record for making the world's largest homemade crayon. It was called Petey's Passion and weighed 731 pounds – measuring 9-feet, 9 3/4-inches. Now a student at JN Fries, the club chose Petey's Promise for one of their donations.
Eveland said hosting the pet food drive was a great way to kick off their efforts while honoring a fellow classmate. The students donated 499 pounds of dog and cat food for their first outreach effort.
The second effort, dubbed Penny Wars, was a contest where clubs throughout the school competed to collect the most pennies.
The school's rock band and newspaper clubs won the contest, but the real winners were recipients of Cooperative Christian Ministry's fuel fund, said Eveland. That effort raised $549 to help provide heat to area families in need.
The third effort was a used book drive. The club collected 970 gently-used books that were distributed to Coltrane Webb Elementary – but also to JN Fries' classroom libraries and The Opportunity House, a joint ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and United Methodist Church.
The books were given to students without reading material at home. The Opportunity House uses the books in their tutoring program.
Rosalind Diefenbach, a sixth-grader in the school's STEM program, said she joined the club to do something more than have fun.
"I chose this club because I …wanted to be a part of the bigger picture and help others along the way," she said.
Melissa Kissling, a seventh-grader in the school's International Studies Program, joined to help her community and influence her school environment.
"I knew that if I joined a club like this, I would certainly be able to positively impact those around me," she said.
"I want to help anyone that needs help," said Anand Rabara, an eight-grader in the school's International Studies program. "I want to help make better learning environments for other students, and I want to give and help in any possible way I can."
Diefenbach hopes the club has many more accomplishments this year.
"I hope we accomplish many things, but not all at once," she said. "The Student Ambassador Club can help me have a head start on making changes in the community. Whether it is a book drive or a fundraiser for the homeless, it can lead me to help others later in life."
Kissling added, "I hope to change my environment for the better in the Student Ambassadors' club. I know that if I put forth my best effort, I will make it easier to communicate and be friendly to others, and that can positively impact my social environment at school."

WaterAid: Giving the Gift of Life to the World's Poorest Countries
Can you imagine dying from a bad case of diarrhea?
No, me neither.
For more than 800 million people around the world, however, possible death from easily preventable ailments and diseases is a stark daily reality.
The statistics are staggering. More than 2,000 children per day are dying, chronically ill or deprived of the ability to attend school because they lack access to something most people in the United States take for granted.
Clean, safe water should be a basic right for all human beings, yet an enormous portion of the world's population doesn't even know where their next sip of it is coming from. Many mothers are forced to give dirty water to their children just to keep them alive, only to eventually have to watch their babies suffer as a result of the tainted water.
That's the situation WaterAid was facing when the non-profit organization stepped in to help in 2009, creating a long-term strategy to provide clean, safe water to the world's poorest countries. Much of that strategy centers on the women in these communities, as they are often the ones who must bear the responsibility of trekking long distances over rough terrain in order to retrieve living water for their families. This laborious work monopolizes so much of their time that there is no space for anything else, including possible jobs that could help improve their financial situations immensely.
With the help of many partner organizations, field offices and donations from people like you and me, WaterAid provides education, clean water and sanitation to over 25 countries in Africa, Asia and the Pacific. By 2015, they hope to raise that number to 30 countries, bringing access to safe water to 25 million more people. Their goals include not only significantly improving health conditions in these areas, but also working with local governments to establish policies of empowerment and easier access to natural resources which are vital for human survival. Chief among these objectives is the health and hygiene education for women and children because, as the old adage goes:
Feed a man a fish and he has food for a day…but teach him how to fish and he can eat for a lifetime".

Friends of a woman and three grandsons who died in an apartment building fire in Rapid City gathered at the scene for a candlelight vigil.
The blaze on November 27 killed 51-year-old Marcia Rock, 9-year-old Thomas Rosado, 5-year-old Dustin Rosado and 3-year-old Marquez Hawk Wing. All four died of smoke inhalation.
About two dozen people gathered on Thursday night to remember the victims, lighting candles and exhibiting crosses with their names as well as photographs.
Fire investigators believe the blaze was caused by the actions of a building resident but they do not believe it was malicious in nature. The exact cause has not been released.
Seventeen other people who lived in the building were able to escape.

2011/12 NBA Awards: All-Defensive Teams
With the NBA regular season coming to a close it's time for awards week at The Hoops Manifesto. We've teamed up with some of Bloguin's best NBA writers to vote on who gets the (virtual) hardware. Next up: All-Defensive Teams
Voting Panel: Jeff Fox from The Hoops Manifesto, Lives from Knicks Fanatics, College Wolf and Bonk from TWolves Blog, Philip Rossman-Reich from Orlando Magic Daily, and Don from With Malice.
All-Defensive First Team
Rajon Rondo - Boston
Tony Allen - Memphis
LeBron James - Miami
Kevin Garnett - Boston
Tyson Chandler - New York
Synopsis: The guards on our All-Defensive First Team, Rajon Rondo and Tony Allen, actually used to share the backcourt in Boston - Allen now provides defensive grit for the up-and-coming Grizzlies. LeBron James was a lockdown defender again this year - opposing forwards' stats when guarded by LeBron were ridiculously bad. Kevin Garnett might have tons of miles on his odometer, but he is still one of the top defensive menaces in the league. Tyson Chandler helped push the Mavs over the championship edge last year, but unfortunately for Knicks fans it'll take more than Chandler to do that for their team.
All-Defensive Second Team
Chris Paul - Clippers
Dwyane Wade - Miami
Andre Iguodala - Philadelphia
Serge Ibaka - Oklahoma City
Dwight Howard - Orlando
Synopsis: Chris Paul led the NBA in steals again this season - that makes four out of the past five years. Only seven players who appeared in at least half of this past season's games averaged more than a steal and a block per game, and Dwyane Wade is the only one who isn't a frontcourt player. Andre Iguodala showed that you can be considered a star even if you don't post eye-popping offensive stats. Serge Ibaka's 3.65 blocks per game was the highest average in the NBA since 2000/01. Who would have thought we'd see the day that Dwight Howard didn't make the All-Defensive First Team?
Others receiving votes: Shawn Marion, Jared Jeffries, Mike Conley Jr., Iman Shumpert, Josh Smith, Rudy Gay, Derrick Rose, Luol Deng, Avery Bradley, Russell Westbrook, Andrew Bynum, DeAndre Jordan, Kobe Bryant
Previous Award Winners: Executive of the Year, Coach of the Year, Most Improved Player, Sixth Man of the Year, All-Rookie Team, Rookie of the Year
Next up: Defensive Player of the Year

After a week-long cruise, we stayed here for one night before heading home.
The beds were comfortable! And there is a free shuttle to/from the airport which was superb.
The staff was VERY accommodating; we arrived off the ship and were tired but they did their best to get rooms ready for us quickly. They even sent a shuttle to another nearby Hampton property to retrieve a lost car seat!
I cannot comment on the restaurant as we didn't have breakfast there; our flight left too early.
No gated/locked parking if that is a concern and you are driving.
This is an older hotel. The shower curtain's plastic insert was torn. Some of the carpets have seen better days. A bit run-down looking. But the staff is kind and helpful.
One thing that will make this hotel very hard for me to consider again; the scents. For some unknown reason, housekeeping sprays a very strong smelling spray very frequently. So strong that it brought tears to my eyes and made me cough in the short walk from the front desk to the elevators. My friend who has scent reactions had to scoot up the back stairs! But she didn't completely avoid it. They sprayed that stuff all night long, about hourly. We told the staff and I hope they bring it up with management. I have never stayed in a hotel that was that strongly scented. No clue why it's done. But I do hope they ease up on it.
