Mary Wells came into sharp focus through a spunky portrayal from N'Kenge. "Tonight was unreal," she said. "To come on stage and play living legends sitting in the audience watching you—well, it's pretty unbelievable. We got through it by using the energy that was coming from the audience onto the stage.
"Being able to play Mary Wells and what she represents—her legacy, especially since she is no longer with us—is probably the most important thing for me to do every night. I get people all the time who come up to me after the show say they knew her very, very well—someone who was connected to her in some way—you never know who's going to be in the audience, so you always have to do your best."
Michael Arnold, who won the Astaire Award 12 years for his hoofing in 42nd Street, sits this one out as a character actor and runs through an assortment of wigs before he gets down to his shaved pate. "I let all the kids dance now. I get to take a break."

Three of The Commodores were present and very pleased with what they saw—William "Wak" King, J.D. Nicholas and Walter Orange. The latter was super-charged. "New York was on fire!" he exclaimed.
Suzanne de Passe liked the way Andrea Dora presented her: "It's not that she should be me. She should have fun with what she's given to play. It's impossible to tell the whole story in depth, but I think that what Berry accomplished was that he gave us pieces that did absolutely portray the essence of what was going on at the time."
Did Eric LaJuan Summers have fun on opening night? "Are you kidding me? You're putting a kid in a candy store! I was Jackie Wilson. I was Rick James. I was Billy Gordon of The Contours, one of The Jackson Five, a Four Top and Brian Holland!"

"I love this card. Super cute design and it is perfect for out theme we wanted for our shower. The paper is a nice thickness and very good quality! All the graphics and words are very clear and look great. My only con was that there is not a spot to list where you are registered. I just made a label and glued to back. Overall this is a great product and great quality!!"
"This is a beautiful invitation. The card stock is heavy and the texture is smooth. Others had said the print was hard to read but I didn't find it that way. I will indeed order again from Tiny Prints."
"This was my first time ordering from Tiny Prints and I am so impressed with not only the quality of the invitations but also the envelopes and customer service. I got my shipment very quickly and my order was exactly right. I will be using Tiny Prints for all of my printing needs. Can't beat the quality and quickness of delivery."
"Love this design! I didn't want anything too gender specific and love autumn leaves so for a fall shower this was perfect. The design is beautiful... simple, elegant and a little crafty too. Super impressed with the quality. Would definitely recommend."
"I ordered this card to use as a celebratory luncheon invitation. The mother-to-be did not want a shower so I was challenged to find an invite that did not say "baby shower". With a little editing of the language, this card was perfect. The bright colors were exactly what I was looking for."

Engineering students design classrooms of the future2011-04-08
First-year engineering students have designed lecture halls and classrooms for the proposed new Teaching Space Complex as part of their course work.
"Even though we don't have all of the technical skills at this point in our education career, this class challenge demonstrated how powerful our minds can be when we come together and collaborate. As students we have some great ideas of what's necessary to improve the lecture hall and create an ideal learning environment," says David Hodgson.
The proposed building at the corner of Union and Division Streets is a priority for the university. The university will move ahead with construction if the provincial government provides capital funding for the project.
Coordinators of the Engineering Practice course saw an opportunity to incorporate a campus building into their classroom collaboration exercise.
"The engineering program at Queen's is unique because while it is very technical, there is an expectation that students will come out well-rounded. I am glad I got the team work experience," says Conrad Behrman.
Classmate Anand Lakhani agrees the challenge gave him a better idea of what an engineering career involves.
"Engineering today involves working with different people from many different disciplines. It's been great getting that experience in our first year," he says.
The students found it satisfying knowing that their submissions will be part of the Teaching Space Complex Committee's consultations.
"Hopefully from our work, future students will have a better environment for interacting with professors and doing group work," says Amanda Riley.
Pete Abbott, coordinator of the design challenge and other professionalism and ethics activities in the course, has been impressed.
"As prospective engineers they need to develop trust and show a willingness to listen and be open to consensus building. And when that happens, truly groundbreaking ideas can emerge, which happened in several cases with this challenge," he says.
The students will share their designs with the Queen's and Kingston communities at a course awards showcase, which takes place April 11 from 2:30 pm until 4:30 pm at Grant Hall. Students will also have the opportunity to interact with the architect who has been hired with funding from an anonymous donor to complete an initial design for the building.

I've heard fantastic things about Majorlica Majorca mascaras but have always been hesitant to buy any of them because of the price. But when i ran out of my Maybeline volume express mascara i decided to take the plunge. what the heck. why not?
Firstly, it's overpriced. And the fibers really bother me. they don't make my lashes voluminous at all cuz the fibers just stick out in really weird angles. they also keep getting into my eyes. Secondly, its not waterproof at all. just an hour later i have racoon eyes.
I'm really disappointed in this product and i will definitely never buy this product again. Compared to the Maybelline mascaras which are way cheaper, this is not worth your while.

very good mascara but in comparision to kiss me heroine make i definately prefer the latter.. kiss me mascara does much better with length, volume define and holding curl..but i do find that lash king gives a more fluttery effect which tends to look more natural .. however find that it tends to make my lashes droop a tiny bit straight after i apply and more throughout the day .using this brand's lash primer underneath willl help to keep the curl though
After reading a lot about Majolica mascaras, I decided to take a plunge and get their latest mascara and that's Lash King. When I first got this, I thought the mascara is a too on a too dry side for being waterproof but I like that it didn't make my lashes crunchy but this formula do not hold my curl at all so this is a fail for me.
It also smudges under my eyes as the day goes on but I like how easy it is to use to apply mascara on the lower lashes. I just have to make sure that I powder my undereyes and not use too much of the mascara.
Won't repurchase. Chances I will clean the wand after I'm done with the mascara and use the brush for my lower lash instead.
I got this masscara after my friend suggested it, and i love it! It lengthens my lashes, makes them appear thicker than they actually are. And it really doesn't smudge. I put it on in the morning, no touch ups, and no racoon eyes or smudges or flakes at all until nightime. :) Only thing is that it is difficult to remove. I guess that explains the no smudging. But i use my ever reliable polds cold cream, and it effectively removes the lash king. The packaging is so adorable! Will repurchase definitely. :)

In the summer, I went to a drugstore in Hong Kong and there it was, standing there in the midst of what seems to be like a spotlight shining over this mascara (to put it dramatically). The packaging is the cutest thing ever I couldn't resist buying this! Anyways, I got the brown version of this mascara and in my opinion it works awesome for me and my teeny Asian lashes. I love the color and I don't regret choosing this over black (considering I already have lots of black mascaras). This lengthens my lashes and really volumizes. I've gotten compliments about the color of my lashes too. The only thing is the staying power wasn't great especially in places with humid weather such as HK. But it holds up pretty well back in Canada. I would definitely buy this again if I ever get the chance to. But since it hasn't ran out yet I'm in no rush.
This is my new favorite mascara. It does what it promises. there are two things that bug me about it though: 1, that putrid smell and 2, the fibers in it bother me a bit.
Update: I have learned to dislike this product. It is quite hard to work with, I always have to correct the mess with a spoolie. It also doesn't do a good job in coating my lashes towards the inner corners of my eyes. For 5 bucks more, you can buy a HE mascara or for 9 bucks less, you can a Maybelline one with a much better quality.
Cute packaging
Dense wand
All the things I like in a mascara!
The effect is typical of most MJ mascaras curl locking ( yup that's what the Japanese call it) and lengthens like I wish my height would...
I have this in brown. The color is warm and my lashes appear almost red in some lightings. Not the shade I would have preferred but it's one of the less reddish ones around.
Can't see a difference in volume and it's a challenge to layer because it dries really fast. I find that swiping straight up the lashes works better than wriggling the comb through the lashes. May need to comb if you apply a tad too much. Being stingy works better for once
My steps are as follows:
1. Apply
2. Comb
3. Admire

This mascara is pretty good, it's pretty dry so it doesn't volumize but it does an excellent job of maintaining a curl in my naturally straight lashes. I used to use Diorshow which did lengthen and volumize dramatically but the formula was too creamy to hold the curl in my eyelashes so by the end of the day I would have mascara stains on my lower eye because my lashes would droop. Before this I was using Oscillation which I think is a midway point between this and the Diorshow.
I like this mascara more and more, it holds a curl really really well, it is very natural looking without looking too thin and it does a pretty good job volumizing as well, it is also fantastic on bottom lashes. I got the fairy drops mascara recently and I still like this more.
I LOVE all the Majolica Majorca's Mascara & when this first came out, I bought it almost immediately. It turned out to be a major disappointment.
1. It has a strange chemical smell.
2. The fibres are all clumpy on the wand - that's how it was the first time I pulled the wand out of the tube.
3.It does NOTHING for my lashes. The fibres simply cling gently off the tips of the lashes making me look like I have strange, spidery lashes which are not even properly aligned. (The spidery fibres hang off the lashes in different angles.)
Back to my usual Majolica Majorca's mascara!
EDIT: Lowering it to just one lippie - the smell became so overpowering, I can smell it all day and it's a burning chemical smell that makes me regurgitate WHILE I was trying to apply it. And then all day, I kept gagging when I caught whiffs of the smell. Chucked it into the bin.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
First of, Majolica Mojorca always had amazing packaging. I'm a sucker for packaging so I decided to give this one a try. The moment I opened the tube I was appalled by how dry it was. The fibers were all over the place! Anyway, I tried it on my asian lashes, and...did not see any results whatsoever. Only good thing? Color maybe.
Other than this, I DO NOT recommend this mascara.

Dolph Ziggler finally cashed in his "Money in the Bank" briefcase and proceeded to defeat a very hurt Alberto Del Rio to win the WWE Heavyweight Title.
Well overdue.
WrestleMania 29 has come and gone, with a full plate of matches.
I watched this event at Buffalo Wild Wings and it was packed. I got there at 5:30pm and it was a good thing because by the time WM29 started there were no seats available. We had a party of 11 this year. Everyone in the restaurant were into the matches as we yelled and screamed all night, especially at the end (dont want to spoil it).
Here are the results of the matches and how well I did in predicting the order of the matches and who won. The card below is the order in which the matches were at WrestleMania 29.
Attendance at Met Life Stadium was 80,676, a new attendance record.
WrestleMania 29 Pre-Show
Intercontinental Championship Match:
Wade Barrett (c) vs. The Miz
The Miz defeated Wade Barrett as Wade rakes Miz in the face and connects with Wasteland. Miz kicks out after two! Miz issues a unique takedown on Barrett and locks back in the figure-four leglock. Barrett taps in Ric Flairs finisher.
I predicted: The Miz 1-0
There turned out to be 8 matches instead of the 9 that was advertised. The eight-person mixed tag team match was cancelled.
Match 1:
6 Man Tag-Team Match
Randy Orton, Sheamus and Big Show vs. The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns)
The Shield defeated Orton, Sheamus and The Big Show, when Orton drops to the mat, and Rollins leaps into the ring out of nowhere, eating an RKO. Reigns hits Orton with a spear, and Ambrose pins the Viper for a three count.
Note: Sheamus was going to tag in The Big Show and Orton snuck in the tag. When the match was over The Big Show attempted to talk to Orton and then Show hits Sheamus and Orton with a KO punch.
My order of the match: I had this as match 6. 0-1
I Predicted: The Shield 2-0
Match 2:
Singles Match:
Mark Henry vs. Rybeck
Mark Henry defeated Rybeck as Henry gets to his feet and Ryback shoulders him. Henry holds on to the ropes and Ryback falls to the mat with Henry on top of him. Henry pins Ryback for three.
My order of the match: I had this as match 3. 0-2
I Predicted: Rybeck 2-1
Match 3:
Tag Team Title Match:
Team Hell No (c) (Kane and Daniel Bryan) vs. Dolph Ziggler and Big E Langston
Team Hell No retain their titles as they defeat Ziggler & Langston when AJ slides the briefcase to Ziggler and distracts the referee. Ziggler misses a briefcase shot, and Kane hits a big boot, then a chokeslam before knocking Big E from the apron. Bryan heads to the top and hits a flying head butt, pinning Ziggler for the three count.
My order of the match: I had this as match 1. 0-3
I Predicted: Ziggler Langston 2-2
Match 4:
Fandango vs. Chris Jericho
Marian Menounos and Kelly Kelly beat Beth Phoenix and Eve as Beth goes for the glam slam, but Kelly counters into a facebuster. Kelly makes the tag to Maria. Maria begins to head up to the top rope slowly. Beth stops her and presses her overhead. Kelly stops it and Maria rolls up Beth for the three count.
Notes from the match: The announcers kept saying that Maria had two broken ribs.
My order of the match: I had this as match 2. 0-4
I Predicted: Fandango 3-2
Fandango upset Chris Jericho when Fandango stands on the top and goes for the leg drop, but Jericho moves out of the way. Fandango tries for the lionsault, but misses. Jericho tries for the walls, but Fandango turns it around into a roll up for a three count.
Match 5:
World Heavyweight Championship Match:
Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Jack Swagger
Alberto retains his title as Swagger brings things back into the ring and walks right into the cross arm breaker. Swagger taps, and this one is over.
My order of the match: I had this as match 5. 1-4
I Predicted: Jack Swagger 3-3
Match 6:
The Streak On The Line
The Undertaker vs. CM Punk
The Undertaker kept his streak alive, at 21-0, as he beat CM Punk when Punk stands tall and brings his thumb across his throat. Punk shoulders Taker but Taker fights out of it. Taker tries for the tombstone but Punk counters out. Punk tries for the G2S again but Taker counters into the tombstone, bringing Punk down once more for the three count.
My order of the match: I had this as match 7. 1-5
I Predicted: Punk 3-4
Match 7:
No Holds Barred
Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar
Triple Hs career is on the line
Shawn Michaels will be in Triple Hs corner.
Triple H wins as he clamps the hold back on and Lesnar slams him down on the steps once more. Hunter puts Brock in the hold a third time and Brock continues to think about tapping. He stands up and drives Hunter down into the ring steps, but Hunter DDTs him on the steps in the process. Hunter reaches over to grab his sledge hammer. He stands up and charges, hitting Lesnar in the head. Hunter tosses the hammer aside and poses for the crowd. Hunter picks Lesnar up and hits a pedigree on the ring steps. Hunter covers Lesnar and gets the three count.
My order of the match: I had this as match 4. 1-6
I Predicted: Brock Lesnar 3-5
Match 8:
WWE Championship Match:
The Rock (c) vs. John Cena
John Cena is the new WWE Champion as Cena and Rock both stand and Cena tries for the AA. Rock counters and tries for the Rock bottom, but Cena counters. Cena tries for the AA, but Rock grabs the ropes. Rock tries for the Rock bottom, and Cena tries for the AA once more, but this time Rock counters into a DDT. He stands tall and waits for Cena to get to his feet. Cena struggles, but eventually makes it. Rock tries for another Rock bottom, but Cena counters it into the AA, and finally comes away with the three count.
My order of the match: I had this as match 9, the last match, but since they cancelled the eight-person mixed tag team I take this as a correct pick. 2-6
I Predicted: John Cena 4-5
This was my worst predictions for the winners ever.
I hoped Gabbers liked my predictions and results.

WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2013 induction ceremony will be held Saturday April 6, 2013 at Madison Square Garden.

Donald Trump to be inducted by Vince McMahon.
Then, On Sunday, April 7th at 7:00pm its the greatest wrestling event of the year, WrestleMania 29, live from MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey.
This year my party will again be at Buffalo Wild Wings for the PPV. What an atmosphere. Its packed with wrestling fans and it makes it feel like we are at WrestleMania.
Sean P. Diddy Combs will sing the National Anthem and later on perform, Living Color will be performing CM Punks entrance Cult of Personality and Pee Wee Herman will also be appearing for the event.
Three years ago I started a tradition where I would pick who would win the match and in what order the matches would be. In 2010, I was 7-2 in who would win, but a dismal 0-9 in the order of the matches. In 2011, I was 5-3 in who would win, but again a dismal 1-7 in the order of the matches. In 2012, I was at my worst with a 4-4 record on who would win, but as it has been for the past three years, I sucked in the order of the matches, going 1-7 for the second year in a row. This goes to show you that the WWE must know better than I on where a match should be placed. My three year record for who wins is a very respectable 16-9.
Anyway, that will not deter me, as I am again going to pick who will win and in what order the matches will be. Even though I tell you how a match will end, if the person, or team that I pick wins even though they dont win it the way I say, it still counts as a win for me. Sorry my predictions, my rules. LOL. Its on with the predictions:
The WWE had announced that the following will be shown during the WWE WrestleMania pre-show which will start one-hour before WrestleMania:
Its power (Barrett) versus finesse (The Miz). Wade is bigger and stronger than The Miz. But, what The Miz lacks in size he makes up with speed and wrestling smarts, something that Barrett lacks.
I am going with the Miz to win this one.
These are the matches that will appear during WrestleMania.
Match 1
If there is anyone who can take the title away from Team Hell No it could be the combination of Dolph Ziggler and Big E. Langston. They team up well against Kane and Bryan with wrestling savvy (Ziggler against Bryan) and strength (Langston against Kane). The deciding factor will be A.J. Lee. If she interferes Ziggler and Langston have an outstanding chance. I say it will happen as Langston will pin Bryan and win the titles.
Match 2
Lets see, the WWE builds Fan-dan-go for over two months just for him to lose? Then again we really dont know how he wrestles. Jericho is one of the best wrestlers of the past 15 years. Can you see Y2J losing to a newcomer. I didnt think so. So I am going to go with Fandango in an upset.
Match 3
Two of the most powerful men in wrestling will compete in action. Forget about technical wrestling, this will be nothing more than brute strength versus brute strength. The thing is who will win? Both wrestlers are sure to hurt each other, but it will be the one who wants it the most. Rybeck has a lot to lose as the WWE has been trying to make him the next superstar. Henry has nothing to lose, hes been there, done that. Winner Rybeck in a very physical match.
Match 4
At one time he was considered the Next Big Thing. Then he faded away, only to come back a year ago. Its Brock Lesnar versus the man who will be running the WWE for the next several decades. Both are fading stars who still have something left in the tank. This match will be more physical than the Henry - Rybeck match as nothing will be left on the table, so-to-speak. Do you think Triple Hs career will end. He signed a 3-year contract extension to wrestle on a limited basis. Lesnar just signed a 2-year contract to wrestler on a limited basis. Whos contract is going to be terminated? My guess is Triple H as Sable will make a surprise appearance to distract Triple H so Brock can low blow him and then pin him.
Match 5
The All-American, American, Jack Swagger takes on the Champion Alberto Del Rio. Both of these wrestlers can wrestle and this could be an interesting match. Both are strong athletic wrestlers who can use their strength and wrestling skills. At one-time the WWE was high on Alberto, they felt he could be the next superstar, but that didnt work out too well. Swagger was on that path until his DUI problems curtailed it. Now, it must be a miracle that Swagger is in the WWE spotlight again, with a good storyline. I think the WWE is liking what they see in Swagger and he will get the win.
Match 6
Its put-up or shut-up for The Shield. Now they face the team of Orton, Sheamus and the Big Show. Usually the Shield is no match for any single competitor as they beat them up by shear numbers, but that wont be the case in this match. If anyone can beat The Shield it could be Orton, Sheamus and The Big Show. The match wont go down as a classic match, because the Shield will win with the help of Randy Orton. Yep you read it right. Randy Orton will help the Shield win.
Match 7
On paper, there is no way that CM Punk could beat The Undertaker. Luckily, paper doesnt wrestle. CM Punk can elevate any wrestler he goes up against, just look at the matches he had against Cena. Punk made Cena into a wrestler and he did a great job. The Undertaker hasnt been at his best for several years, yet his matches always are outstanding. Still, it will be CM Punk who will carry this match and make it a five-star event as The Undertakers streak comes to an end.
Match 8
Eight-person Mixed Tag Team Match:
Tons of Funk (Brodus Clay and Tensai) and the Funkadactyls (Camercon and Naomi) vs. Team Rhodes Scholars (Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow) and the Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella).
This match was put together as a buffer between two matches. So, this is where I decided to stick them. On one side you have a team of technical wrestlers (Rhodes and Sandow) going up against to of the most uncoordinated wrestlers the WWE could find. The winners of the match will be Team Rhode Scholars.
Match 9
This is the second year in-a-row that these two stars will face each other. Fan favorite, John Cena goes against the most electrifying WWE superstar of all-time, The Rock. Talent goes to The Rock even though he has only seen limited action in the ring since leaving to become an actor. Cena has the capabilities to wrestle, when he has the right opponent (Miz/Punk), otherwise he is a Hulk Hogan clone. Will The Rock take Cena to new heights? Will The Rock see Cena? Will The Rock be cooking? I say it will all happen as John Cena will defeat The Peoples Champ The Rock.
BUT here is the twist, after Cena wins, Dolph Ziggler will cash in his money-in-the-bank briefcase and pin Cena to become the new WWE Champion.
There you have my predictions.
Who do you think is going to win this years matches??
Here are some facts/tibits about WrestleMania:

Flightglobal's got a story running on four A350 XWB videos that Airbus has released:
What's interesting is that in the "A350 in customers' livery" video it shows an aircraft in Emirates livery.
But as far as I'm aware Emirates haven't actually announced an order for the aircraft yet.
Can we predict an announcement shortly then?
I see now that they have had to remove the video:
Opps i think there has been a little mistake...I wonder which "external supplier" is going to get a bit of a hard time from Airbus now??
Very professional and vigilant! Bravo Flight
bet some poor bloke in the airbus marketing dept is getting it in the neck now.

I was having winter start-up issues and I have 2,500w system that needed the extra long amps. Chicago -14* mornings are not an issue any more. I have a Tsunami 2 farad capacitor to assist and consistently power my Alpine SWR 12D2 subwoofer. I still have the slightest flicker in my headlights when I'm really pushing the bass but, the sound quality is solid and clear without a stagger. If you are serious about your subwoofer, you will have an XS battery. I replaced a 6 year old Red Top Optima with great results so far. I have to purchase long posts to attack my battery but I don't care. This is a professional product.

To say I like this battery would be an understatement. I used it as an upgrade battery under the hood of my 2007 Ford F-150 even though its no t the same size as the stock, it still fits well in the same place, I'm using it to power a Rockford Fosgate T-1500bdcp and it does an extremely well job of powering the amp and my truck. Very fast shipping also. I love dealing with Sonic Electronix.

Got this to aide my 2500 watt amp and it does a wonderful job thus far always has the power when you need it. For testing purposes of this battery i was able to run it TWO weeks jamming my system after break in period before it finally lost the power to push them max.. Thats insane. You wont regret putting this monster in your trunk.

I had problems with power on my system in my car. I picked up one of these batteries and problem was solved. Definitely worth the money over anything else other than an alternator. Don't waste your money on a bandaid fix with a capacitor. If you want results this is where it's at.

This is a great battery. I replaced my optima red top and have had no problems. Holds a strong voltage and is able to keep up. I just did the big 3 and that made it even more worthwhile. I recommend xs to all my friends and to the serious car audio enthusiasts.

Had this battery for a few months to replace my tsunami 10 farad cap and I love this thing. It is strong enough to handle my Hifonics BRZ 2100 and my NVX JAD800.4 with no lights dimming at 75% volume. It is a little on the expensive side but you get what you pay for. If you are looking for a good strong battery, look no further.

The Pied Piper of Hamelin was originally filmed as a television special, then released theatrically outside the United States. The story is the familiar one: the town of Hamelin, plagued by rats, hires a mysterious piper (Van Johnson) to rid the town of rodents. The piper does so, on the promise that he'll be paid a handsome fee. But the duplicitous burgomeister (Claude Rains), on the advice of his Laurel-and-Hardy council (Doodles Weaver and Stanley Adams), reneges on his promise. In revenge, the piper...more

I've been working on Vole (aka MicroSoft) machines for 20 years. I remember what it was like getting started (Every year fewer and fewer computer people know any DOS commands).
Now I have a new PC which will be dedicated to Linux. I started a year ago with Debian and am now using Kubuntu. From time-to-time my guru brother is able to help me, but until I can pay to fly him here, he can't, and shouldn't have to, fix everything.
The install for Feisty (7.04) went without a hitch. If the only thing I was going to use were the Open Office programs and Konqueror, I'd be delighted. But no, I want an application (Medusa4) which isn't in any of the Devine Repositories, I've used the installation helps available through the Internet, and now that it's installed, the program doesn't work. I also want the install Twiki, and having done that a couple of different ways, that doesn't work either, and Twiki is in the Devine Repositories! Things aren't going the way they're supposed to according to the documentation? Twiki's support forums are well hidden, if they exist at all. Konversation can be helpful, but I'd sure like to know when the adults come online
Then there's the more mundane apps, I'd sure like to find a good MP3 player. So far I've tried Amarok, juK, Kaffeine, Noatun, and Rythmbox. So far, Rythmbox is the only player which plays my MP3s. It makes them sound like they're being played inside a cardboard box, and it lacks a PAUSE and STOP button.
Linux and Ubuntu may revolutionize the computer world, but before they do, installation of programs is going to have to be dramatically simplified (read: automated), and produce more reliable acceptable results. And when I click on the report-a-bug button in Rythmbox to ask for a PAUSE button, LaunchPad.net is going to have to avoid sending me off to NeverNever Land after I've entered my login name and password.

Vicky Polito March 10, 2014 at 04:02 pm
Ericus, how do you expect to get ahead in life by calmly, clearly talking sense? I think it's…Read More telling that the chart, though updated to cut Peck out and move Coldwater and Masters, and reflect promotions given, etc., does NOT yet show Steinys' son-in-law, Jim Cullen on the staff (he's been there since after Thanksgiving). He makes a few hundred a month more than Hernandez (taking home about $35K/yr) and my big concern about Cullen's role, besides that now common thread of a lack of qualifications and no open job posting so any person can maybe have a chance to find work, is that his job in part is supposedly "Head of Purchasing"! Can you spell "conflict of interest"?! So, stick with me here: another board member has a family member hired into a job in the maintenance dept, without any special qualifications, and starting at $12/hr. Within a month, Cullen is bumped up in pay and put into a management role to oversee purchasing, i.e., to essentially generate PO's, etc., approve vendor payments?! WOW! Thank goodness his father-in-law knows so much about the intricacies of PayPal and is always ready to zip into the district offices to butt in and "help", right? But, you won't find Cullen unless you dig into payroll because they clearly are avoiding openly listing him as being on staff.
Vicky Polito March 10, 2014 at 04:05 pm
Let's not forget--prior to making this new role for Hernandez, sports groups were handled and…Read More handled fine by existing staff, but that was before real staff was gutted and suddenly many people saw a change in their duties to have to pick up other things because either no one was there to do them anymore OR they had to cover for new, but inept and/or lazy persons supposedly doing this or that task.

Oh, and by the way, even though we've gotten off on this tangent, nobody has forgotten about the disarray and potential criminal activity at the PTPD, those that have caused it and those that will ultimately suffer for it.

Vicki -- Thanks for your polite response unfortunately based on your comments and the comments of…Read More some others after my post it appears, at least to me, that you still have some faith in the folks currently in the offices who would be making these appointments and the people accepting the appointments to do the right thing. I personally, at least as far as Illinois politics goes, do not, and would like to see the same house cleaning everyone wants with PPD across the entire state. Any politician in any office in Illinois who can sit there and say that this is an embarrassment needs to remember the old adage about glass houses. Especially Tom Cross. I would go one step further and say that in my opinion it would be a fair statement to compare the current state of affairs in Illinois and how we are viewed nationally to the current state of the PPD and how it is viewed statewide. Both are equally in need of some return to sanity.
Tim February 19, 2014 at 03:34 pm
itsmeray - there are good politicians in Illinois. Sure, there aren't many of them, but they do…Read More exist. On the local level, many of them do look out for something other than themselves. I have had a local county board member come out to my house to discuss an issue I raised over email. He didn't just have his staff sent a 'thank you for your concern' email, he came out and sat down with me and talked about it for half an hour. This wasn't even during an election year. THAT is what a true politician does. Luckily, he is still serving in a public capacity in the area. The aberration at the local level in the PTPD is just that, an aberration. While this little group has its fingers in many other local governing bodies, they do not have a board majority in any of them, and that is why it hasn't spiraled out of control in those government bodies. Make no mistake, they are certainly TRYING to get a majority in many other boards(village, library, township, etc), so I see this as a good thing in the long term that it has finally 'woken up the sleeping bear' so to speak. Their poorly organized attempt to take over local governments has been put to a halt, permanently. The local republican group has shown its true colors, no matter how much they try to deny it, this is what they actually want. They don't 'hate government', they just hate not being the ones in control of it. Don't get me wrong, I have no animosity to republicans over democrats, but it is a fact as plain as day that this fiasco is a direct result of the local republican organization. It isn't about their politics, it is about their agenda, and on a local level they have pretty much ended themselves by still supporting these people to this day. Tom Cross on the other hand has been a great asset to the area. Don't vote for the party, vote for the person. Just be glad that none of these clowns were able to win their bids for state office(Hurtado, Silosky, peck). The residents of Plainfield and the surrounding community put a stop to them getting to the state level to mess things up. So while you may not like what is currently in office...look what the voters rejected. This circus could have been happening in their state senate/representative seats, instead of just the local park district. The voting residents are on the right path, for the most part.
Ericus Alanas February 15, 2014 at 01:29 pm
Again, Plainfield residents cant even vote 5 correctly, 9 will be a complete failure in 4 years,…Read More this bandaid fix is the incorrect solution. Just do a recall vote like they did up north.
Mary Ludemann February 16, 2014 at 07:49 pm
It is very sad that this board majority won't step down even after all the calls for them to do so.…Read More That is why I support this legislation. Does it seem extreme that the state has to step in and fix a local problem? Yes, but this local problem does not have a local fix in sight until the first member of this board majority comes up for reelection in 2017. If this board majority could cause so much turmoil in 8 months imagine what they could accomplish in 3 more years. Thank you to everyone in the community for standing up to this board majority.
Tim February 14, 2014 at 04:07 pm
Thank you for the reply Mr. Newton.
I figured with the same 5 board members, it wouldn't make much…Read More sense to try to elect new positions, as it would just turn out the same silly way as it did before. But, as you have mentioned before, we are in uncharted territory here. Perhaps with 9 members the new bill will take this into consideration as well before its final approval? I can hope, at least.
On a side note, I like the way this non-legitimate source of communication allows us free and open discussion with our officials(well, the ones that aren't scared at least). I appreciate the time Mr. Newton and Ms. Ludemann have taken to discuss this with the residents on this non-legitimate internet site full of 'cloaked' people. Heck, I could be a non tax-paying tree for all anyone knows!

More importantly, the PTPD does not need people in charge that will continue to blindly follow the majority. Many comments have given leeway to them for doing what they felt necessary to keep their jobs. Well Peck is gone. What excuse do they have now for continuing where he left off?

This message is directed at parents who might question the state of civics education in Illinois.…Read More Do you think it might be too extreme to say that so few young people understand what civics and representative government mean that our democracy could be at stake? Do you think that, if we don't start practicing and demanding ethical behavior of our government officials, eventually our democracy will fail? Would it be a stretch to say that many freedoms we now enjoy are taken for granted, not understood or could even be lost?
OK, maybe that is a stretch, but the next Park District, or Village board meeting would be an excellent opportunity for civics students, or others wanting to learn more about local government, to attend and see first-hand how community problems are handled by local government. To maximize the educational value, before attending the meeting some background in the various issues facing the board should be reviewed and several key questions written down. During the meeting, the student should review their list to see if their most important questions are covered. The list of questions should be discussed by students, teachers and parents both before and after the meeting.
Another excellent topic that could be studied is the Illinois law regarding open meetings, and how it benefits all citizens. It would be good for teachers and students to express why open meetings are good, and what Illinois may have been like before the open meetings were required by law. This exercise is best done before attending a meeting. This is a tremendous learning opportunity for civics learners of all ages. Who knows, one of them could be our next president!

The issue is weather the man who seeks to be governor of Illinois is a sex offender or his accuser is a nearly bankrupt vile lier. The real issue, in my opinion, is that politicians are noticably self serving and do not wish to propose changes that could get Illinois and America back on its feet monitarily and fiscally. At this point I think Mr. Rutherford needs to drop out of the race if he does not submit to a comprehensive lie detector test. His accuser should do the same. I think we have had enough of the criminal shanninagans that define Illinois executive branch on all levels, state, local, federal, including intelligence agencies- they are just better at sneaking around and manipulating.

Gwinnett Daily Post
Dick Yarbrough's last column ("It's Time To Fix Our Borders," Nov. 13, Page 6A) bordered on the outrageous. He would have us believe that one solution for our threats from terrorists is to seal the Mexican border, to magically wall out all but, perhaps, selected entertainers, maids and waiters.
To take a more common sense and cost-effective approach, if our nation spent just one 1/100th of what it does now (to patrol our southern border, return those caught, imprison the habitual "offenders," build thousands of miles of walls) on helping restore the Mexican economy, we might actually stem the immigration. I say, "restore" its economy, because for more than 90 years, North Americans exploited its people and land, extracting huge profits and forcing the once-self sufficient farmers to grow only products for U.S. export. Latin Americans became impoverished by having to import foods that they once could grow. Now in the past few years, when Mexicans could suffer no more, their historical role in feeding this nation has been swept away in a tide of Republican-led xenophobia. Yarbrough's argument that terrorists sneaking past our borders will create another 9-11 are facile and only appeal to those who know neither history nor international affairs. Terrorists weren't born that way — to want to hurt the Americans. The reluctant road to violence was paved in decades of humiliation and racist U.S. policies that, for example, turned a blind eye to Israel's decades of humiliations and abuses of Palestinians. The best way to prevent social and military threats to our nation are by studying recent history, learning why people believe they have no alternative to conduct illegal acts or harm us, avoiding the actions that cause them to suffer and subsequently seek redress or revenge. Preventions are far better than cures. — John Elliott DuluthMore like this story

I'm going to the Iowa / Northwestern game on Saturday - was planning to dress in neutral colors, but now I'm not sure. What jerks!

Sounds like you need to bust out some purple! Hawk fans are complete tools, in fact you often will see them wearing shirts from the band tool because they dont realize its a band. In any event, give them a taste of their own crap and show up in Northwestern gear.
Yes, they were out as always at ISU games. I am trying to determine if they are "fans by proxy" or doing as a dig on the ISU fans. A guy in an Iowa shirt walks by us going up the stairs... My friend John: "Go Pitt!" His wife: "You don't want to start with him he's been drinking." My friend John: "No ****! Has been drunk all week? He's on the complete opposite side of the country and in the wrong clothes."
I had friends at the game who were Iowa fans... we were part of a group... they DIDN'T wear their Iowa gear to the game though.
I just got back from Vegas and we were one of the first cars in the lot for tailgate. It was sad that we were parked next to at least 15 hawkeye fans giving us crap. They were all decked out in Iowa stuff as well as Rebel stuff - really sad. I think I got pretty wasted and made a note to them that Pittsburgh was on the other side of the country.

Bradley Names 20-Man Roster To Prepare For FIFA World Cup Qualifier in Mexico
Aug. 7, 2009
U.S. Men's National Team head coach Bob Bradley has named a roster of 20 players that will train in advance of the FIFA World Cup qualifier against Mexico that will take place Aug. 12 in Mexico City. The U.S. seeks its first-ever victory on Mexican soil, with kickoff set for 3 p.m. CT at Estadio Azteca, famed for its grueling combination of altitude, smog and more than 100,000 spectators. The match will be broadcast live on Telemundo, mun2, and the Futbol de Primera Radio Networks. Fans can follow live online via ussoccer.com's newly upgraded MatchTracker and twitter.com/ussoccer.
