BWW Reviews: 'Round and Around It Goes
by Kristen Morale - Mar 2, 2014 What a soothing, kind feeling the name of Liliom would bring to whoever hears such a name; surely the person who possesses it would not damn its beauty to the means of a harsh and indignant life. Alas, such a man who bears this name is apparently nothing more than a brute - a man whose soul is marred by his inability to express his true feelings because of the hubris ever-present in his heart. Yet, what authors, poets and the like have been telling their audiences for years on end is this brute of a man is not the monster he is depicted as. Beneath the exterior is a tortured being whose inner beauty is just as present as the fierceness from which he comes to define himself as a human being; unfortunately, though, it is not as prevalent and is thought not to exist at all. This tormented soul, hidden behind the appearance and demeanor of a fierce, angry man, is always so appealing because of its trials and tribulations; it is a person who is simultaneously allowed to live and be held back to the point of becoming a person that is hardly recognizable to the self. It is with this concept in mind that Beautiful Soup presents this gorgeous production of Liliom, a tale of one woman's undying love for a seemingly undeserving and hideous man whose reconciliation comes as a result of his wife's irrational yet beautifully inspiring sense of hope in the man that, beneath the rough and domineering exterior of the carousel barker, exists in the form of the gentle, loving Liliom who abandoned the man he was for the sake of loving, and being loved in return.

Introduction to Error Handling Programming Guide For Cocoa
Every program must deal with errors as they occur at runtime. The program, for example, might not be able to open a file, or perhaps it cannot parse an XML document. Often errors such as these require the program to inform the user about them. And perhaps the program can attempt to get around the problem causing the error.
Cocoa (and Cocoa Touch) offer developers programmatic tools for these tasks: the NSError
class in Foundation and new methods and mechanisms in the Application Kit to support error handling in applications. An NSError
object encapsulates information specific to an error, including the domain (subsystem) originating the error and the localized strings to present in an error alert. With an application there is also an architecture allowing the various objects in an application to refine the information in an error object and perhaps to recover from the error.
You should read this document to understand the NSError
API and architecture and how to use them.
Organization of This Document
Error Handling Programming Guide for Cocoa has the following articles:
"Error Objects, Domains, and Codes" describes the attributes of an
object, particularly its domain and error code, and discusses the possible contents of an error object's "user info" dictionary, including localized message strings and underlying errors."Using and Creating Error Objects" explains how to evaluate an error, how to display an error message using an
object, and how to implement methods that return anNSError
object by reference."Error Responders and Error Recovery" describes the Application Kit architecture for passing error objects up a chain of objects in an application, giving each object a chance to customize the error before it is presented. It also discusses the role of the recovery attempter, an object designated to attempt a recovery from an error if the user requests it.
"Handling Received Errors" discusses how, in the chain of error-responder objects, you handle a received error and customize it.
"Recovering From Errors" explains the procedure for attempting a user-requested recovery from an error.
The two chapters relevant to iOS are "Error Objects, Domains, and Codes" and "Using and Creating Error Objects."
See Also
""The Document Architecture Supports Robust Error Handling" in Document-Based App Programming Guide for Mac" in Document-Based App Programming Guide for Mac offers valuable advice for subclasses that override methods with a by-reference NSError
"Types of Dialogs and When to Use Them" in Apple Human Interface Guidelines offers advice on the form and content of alerts in OS X. iOS Human Interface Guidelines offers similar advice for alerts on iOS. You should consult these guidelines before composing your error messages. Also take a look at the following documents discussing areas of Cocoa programming related to error handling and the presentation of error messages:
Assertions and Logging Programming Guide (both platforms)
Dialogs and Special Panels (alerts on OS X)
Sheet Programming Topics (OS X)
Exception Programming Topics discusses how to raise and handle exceptions. "Exception Handling" in The Objective-C Programming Language describes the compiler directives @try
, @catch
, @throw
, and @finally
, which are used in exception handling.

Collectively, Optimum Nutrition, American Body Building, and Costello's Health Distributors, are the dominant force in the sports nutrition industry with the highest quality products available in health food stores, specialty stores, gyms and progressive retailers everywhere.
HistoryOptimum Nutrition was founded in 1986 by brothers Tony and Michael Costello. Originally known as Costello's Health Distributors, the entrepreneurial brothers soon recognized an opportunity in the need for significantly improved quality and innovative vision in the sports nutrition industry. The Optimum Nutrition brand was launched to satisfy both demands, and after 22 years of success reflected in great part by the ongoing best-selling status of ON Gold Standard 100% Whey, the Costello's entered into agreement to sell the company to the international cheese and nutritional ingredients group Glanbia.
Optimum Nutrition Mission StatementOptimum Nutrition strives to produce distinctive, affordable, premium-quality products while making every effort to anticipate ever-changing customer needs and meet the demands of a dynamic market with innovative products, effective support materials, and unsurpassed service.
AffordabilityAs an advocate of healthy lifestyles, ON believes that every consumer should be able to purchase premium products; so they eliminate the middlemen and control the integrity of their brand throughout the entire production and distribution processes, making sure each product is not just top quality, but also among the most competitively priced in the industry.
Quality CountsOptimum Nutrition's commitment to quality is evident throughout the entire product development process. Before a single machine is turned on they carefully select vendors who supply premium raw materials. All vendors must provide a Certificate of Analysis for each raw material as a continued measure of quality. These certificates are then verified through random in-house and independent laboratory testing. Highly sophisticated equipment confirms the purity and potency of every ingredient on their labels. To further diminish any chance of physical, chemical, and microbiological contaminants, they have established and implemented their own Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) program. Quality assurance professionals make routine checks on all storage, blending, and production areas and conduct final inspections daily. Together, these procedures allow Optimum Nutrition to constantly deliver first-rate sports nutrition supplements under the strictest quality control standards known as current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMPs).
Customer SatisfactionFrom the beginning, Optimum Nutrition's customers have been their number one priority. While strict quality control, lab testing, and manufacturing under tightly controlled conditions are all very important, they are all done for one reason – to bring you high quality, affordable supplements. They pride themselves on customer loyalty and are pleased to report that nearly all of their first-time customers become devoted patrons. You can be confident that from the moment a product is conceived to the moment it leaves their facility they put only the best into Optimum Nutrition so you only put the best into your body.

What's the secret to success on Facebook? Having a pre-existing fan base. It also helps if you're a Fortune 500 company. At least that seems to be the conclusion of new research on the social network.
While brands have helped increase their reach and engagement, research from both Slate and social media monitoring and analytics firm Sysomos show that it's big brands that get the most out of Facebook — not upstarts that get the word out through their Facebook pages.

Hang tight!
Recipe by semaalir
"A simple delicious dipping sauce!"
Watch video tips and tricks
1/2 cup orange marmalade
2 teaspoons stone-ground mustard
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
WOW! I have a favorite dipping sauce that my husband and I like very much to use with coconut shrimp, but, this receipe as of dinner last night became our all time favorite.. however, I did not have stone-ground mustard instead I used dijon mustard.. then flavor was GREAT!
I had to use Apricot Jam because I did not have orange. I doubled the recipe but only used 1 tsp of horseradish because the only kind in my frig was EXTRA HOT...which I use for cocktail sauce. I used combo of Dijon and Stoneground Brown mustard. It needed a little dash of sour for our taste and to cut the sweetness...so I put a teaspoon of key lime juice. I also think this would make an awesome ham glaze with some honey or brown sugar added to it.

We love horseradish, so I added a heaping teaspoon. Otherwise, I followed the recipe as written, and it is awesome! I used Coconut Shrimp I recipe from this site, and it was delish!
very good. I didn't even have the horseradish to add to it, but it was still delicious. and serving size was dead on. thanks for sharing!
Perfect combo of flavors! This one's a keeper!
The sauce was pretty good and taste exactly like the dipping sauce at Outback. However I didn't have the stone ground mustard but I used regular mustard and that was fine.
It was perfect with the coconut shrimp.

Born in 1940, Jerry Lawson pioneered home video gaming in the 1970s by helping create the Farichild Channel F, the first home video game system with interchangeable games. A New York native, Lawson is one of the few African-American engineers who worked in computing at the dawn of the video game era.
"With some people, it's become an issue. I've had people look at me with total shock. Particularly if they hear my voice, because they think that all black people have a voice that sounds a certain way, and they know it. And I sit there and go, 'Oh yeah? Well, sorry, I don't.'"
[On being one of the few black engineers in the video-game industry.]
Early Life and Education
Born in New York City on December 1, 1940, Gerald Anderson Lawson is famous for being a video game pioneer, helping develop the first cartridge-based home video game console system. Lawson's father was a longshoreman and his mother worked for New York City. He had one brother, Michael.
Inspired as a child by the work of George Washington Carver, Jerry Lawson dabbled in electronics growing up, repairing televisions to make a little money before enrolling at Queens College, part of the City University of New York. His interest in computing led him in the 1970s to Silicon Valley's Homebrew Computer Club, of which he was the only black member at the time. While with the club, he crossed paths with Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. (In an interview, he referred to Steve Jobs as a business-minded "sparkplug" and recalled being unimpressed when he interviewed Wozniak for a job.)
Video Game Pioneer
In the mid-1970s, Lawson helped create the Fairchild Channel F, a home entertainment machine that was produced in 1976 by Fairchild Semiconductor, where he worked as director of engineering and marketing. (Only years earlier, Mike Markkula, co-founder of Apple Computers Inc., had headed marketing for the company.) Though basic by today's standards, Lawson's work allowed people to play a variety of games in their homes, and paved the way for systems such as the Atatri 2600, Nintendo, Xbox and Playstation.
One of the few black engineers in his industry, Lawson later said that colleagues were often surprised to find out that he was African American: "With some people, it's become an issue. I've had people look at me with total shock. Particularly if they hear my voice, because they think that all black people have a voice that sounds a certain way, and they know it. And I sit there and go, 'Oh yeah? Well, sorry, I don't.'"
Lawson died in Mountain View, California, on April 7, 2009, due to complications relating to his diabetes. He was survived by his wife, Catherine, and two children.

Ryan Braun's Name Linked to Doping Scandal LabBraun says he has nothing to hideMILWAUKEE-Ryan Braun's name has been linked to a clinic in Miami alleged to have given performance enhancing drugs to a number of major league baseball players. Yahoo Sports is reporting that Braun's name appears three times in records obtained from The Biogenisis Clinic in Miami. Braun issued a statement Tuesday evening saying; "During the course of preparing for my successful appeal last year, my attorneys who were previously familiar with Tony Bosch (who runs the clinic) used him as a consultant." Braun goes on to say that he has nothing to hide and has never had any other relationship with Tony Bosch. He said he would fully cooperate with any inquiry. When it comes to the Biogenisis records, unlike other players, there's no specific substance listed next to Braun's name. Braun's initials do appear below his name with a 20 to 30k figure immediately after, presumably money owed to the clinic for services rendered. Braun tested positive for synthetic testosterone after his 2011 MVP season. He won his appeal after raising questions about his urine samples and chain of custody and the integrity of the man who collected the sample. |

Grass-roots activists shared inspirational experiences on reducing female circumcision in Senegal, raising awareness of lesbian and transgender issues in Nepal and working for the dignity of sex workers in India at a special meeting at the United Nations headquarters in Geneva on Friday.
In January, WSSCC will begin elections to fill three open seats on WSSCC's government body, its member-elected Steering Committee.
WSSCC is pleased to announce the appointment of 13 new National Coordinators (NC) from across Africa and Asia.
Ms. Nomathemba Neseni, a respected human rights commissioner, WASH advocate and WSSCC Steering Committee Member, passed away 30 August 2012 in Harare, Zimbabwe, after a short illness. WSSCC's Chair, Prof. Anna Tibaijuka, expressed the organization's deep condolences to her family and to Mr. Lovemore Mujuru, Acting Executive Director of the Institute of Water and Sanitation Development (IWSD) in Zimbabwe, the institute she led.
WSSCC is currently seeking to recruit a number of National Coordinators for priority countries in Africa and Asia. This concerns a voluntary position with only small, partial compensation and an appointment for three years.
National Coordinators are an essential part of WSSCC's operational structure. They benefit from their link to WSSCC through their increased ability to influence sanitation and hygiene programming and sector coordination, strengthen advocacy, access funds, link to international campaigns or otherwise use WSSCC's international profile. The relationship between WSSCC and its National Coordinators is one of mutual benefit and strength for advocacy for sanitation and hygiene, at all levels. Read more!

Large output gap, anemic growth and zero bound interest rates have led central banks of developed economies resort to unconventional methods to stimulate growth. While this has had some adverse impact on the exchange rates, it is not the prime focus of any central bank.
The falling yen has caused much disquiet among some countries, which have threatened to take a page out of Brazil's playbook and act to prevent their currencies from rising. Bank of Japan needs to buy foreign assets (to weaken the yen in large quantities), mainly of U.S. dollar and euro-denominated assets. According to M. Cullen Thompson of Bienville Capital Management
A materially weaker yen also complicates the necessary global rebalancing process: the US and parts of Europe-i.e. current account deficit countries-need to move towards trade balance to achieve sustainable growth (i.e. a weaker USD and euro relative to some peers). By contrast, the surplus countries, notably China, Japan and Germany-the world's 2nd, 3rd, and 4th largest economies-need to engineer more domestic demand, relying less on exports, or external demand, for growth. A policy-induced shift back towards export-led growth by the surplus countries would only rekindle the global imbalances that erupted in 2008
Having virtually exhausted its ability to grow through investment, China is unlikely to sit idle as Japan weakens the yen, stealing external demand in the process. Recently, the yen has weakened by nearly 20% versus the Korean won, one of Japan's primary competitors, threatening Korean exports, which represent 50% of its economy. In sum, aggressive actions by the BOJ could escalate into a full-fledged currency war.
I have written about the risks of looming currency war in my previous article "Is Japan Prompting A 1930s-Like Currency War?" I have also discussed as to why Japan could not be termed as a currency manipulator in "Japan's Currency War: Much Discussed, But Hard To Find."
In this article, we will look for evidence to state that Japan is not indulging in any big currency manipulation. Now let us look into reasons as to whether Japanese yen (JPY) is currently trading significantly outside of its fair value estimate, based on research work done by Ric Deverell of CS to see if this is the case:
a) Change in Annual Fx Reserve
b) Real effective rate: The movement of USD, euro, GBP and the yen has been relatively contained within a fixed range since 1970s, barring some outliers witnessed during 1985 (Plaza accord).
c) Foreign exchange rates at purchasing power parity (adjusting for differences in domestic price levels): The yen is overvalued with no signs of currency manipulation. Based on CS model, Chinese remimbi (FXY) is the only undervalued currency.
d) Trade Dynamics (current account balance): Japan's current account surplus has narrowed over the past five years. Though the U.S. has made some marginal improvements, it is still in the negative zone. Chinese surplus has also fallen, while Germany runs the largest current account surplus. The euro region has witnessed the maximum improvement. Its current account surplus has risen to the historical highs that were witnessed during the Plaza accord period during 1985.
e) Though Bank of Japan has been expanding its balance sheet, its aggressiveness pales in comparison with other central banks since the onset of the financial crisis.
(click to enlarge)Source: Bienville Capital Management
Investment Implications: The outcome of Japanese (EWJ) actions would be fourfold - a) weaker yen b) growth in domestic demand c) negative interest rates and d) higher inflation. Finally if weaker yen remains the core of Japan's plans to revive its export market, risk of currency war looms higher. With anemic global growth and sluggish demand, any revival of Japan's export market would be at the loss of market share for other countries. Japanese companies like Toyota (TM), Honda (HMC), Toshiba and Mazda (OTCPK:MZDAY) would be the biggest winners at the expense of U.S. (SPY) companies like Ford (F), General Motors, Caterpillar (CAT), General Electric (GE) and Deere (DE). I have written in detail about the investment options available in my previous article "Asia and Japan's Reflation game." Now let us focus on the winners and losers.
- As a country, Indonesia (EIDO) and Malaysia (EWM) would benefit from Japan's domestic demand in absolute terms, due to exports of fuel and lubricant products. However in terms of percentage of GDP, export-driven countries of Malaysia and Thailand would benefit the most. Korea (EWY) will be the biggest loser as it competes directly with Japan in the export market. Thailand (THD) would benefit as Japan exports high value-added auto parts to Thailand for assembly.
- Gold: Falling bond real bond yields are good for gold-related products (GLD).
- Emerging market currencies: The South African rand, Chinese renminbi (FXI) and the Indian rupee (ICN) offer both a real yield advantage and are currently undervalued.
- Negative Interest Rates: Readers can refer to my previous article "Marc Faber: Get Ready For Decade-Long Low Interest Rates"
- Infrastructure and Utility companies with pricing linked to Inflation Index: include National Grid (NGG), Ferrovial (OTC:FRRVF) and Severn Trent (OTCPK:SVTRF)

yeah, I did my first one by hand and it took forever. On my second one I used a mouse sander for the 200-320-400 stages and then moved to hand sanding for the 800-1000 stuff. I never really got the seam done to my satisfaction by hand, but with the sander it was no problem at all.
Lookin good so far.
Got the skirt trimmed off
Still sanding down all the little lines and bumps but building the wifes scout and my tusken rifle is taking up some time
Keep going on that seam, it will go away I promise. The more difficult part of the seam for me was the little section at the bottom behind the ears. I hate finishing that part.
Goto walmart buy a mouse sander and thank us later....it makes all the difference and saves u time in the long run...i even used it with a microfiber towel to polish the Coldcast when I was done.
I will second the sander, you will have a better helmet because of it. You will reach the "good enough" mindset too soon with just hand sanding.
Small update scored a flightsuit from a retired jango for $30!!
may I make a suggestion?
Don't cut out the visor or the rear slotted section untill you've completly sanded and prepped the helmet. This just help prevent the helmet from cracking in weak sections.
Little update I received the flightsuit and it's a navy blue one so I think I'm going to re-sell it since it's too dark and I don't think I can re-dye it but my wifes scout is all done and approved and after my mouse droid is done I'm goin full blast on the jango.
Westrooper - I'm not cutting anything else out until after I hit 800 grit
i've taught you all so well!!! it warms my heart! <3
so i got down to the 400-1000 phase and i have alot of darker and lighter cold cast showing right now it looks like Michael jackson before he got bleached the more i sand the darker it gets is this normal? i took the very top of the bucket to 1000 and polished it and its shiny but dark. any ideas?

you can keep sanding back the shinny top layer of CC to make it all look even. The darker CC polishes up just as well.
One of the things I have done at this stage is to go ahead and hit it with some "mothers" polish and see how even it really is. I have found that a lot of those apparently vast differences are greatly deminished when you hit it with polish. Then if it doesn't even out there is no harm you just go back to sanding.
those lighter spots usually start to show up around the 400 to 800 stage of sanding. i'm personally not a fan because if you look close in the lighter areas you'll probably see some pitting, they're usually very small but they bug me. so at this point i get the mouse sander out again and hit those areas with 220 and sand it down to the darker cold cast. you'll get a deep, even, and richer shine when you get past all the lighter stuff.
Ok I had a hard time finding the motorcycle all metal polish so I got some turtle wax all metal polish and it doesnt seem to be as mirrored as yours saint.?
Wow, very nice!
that definitly looks more even, did you sand on it some more or just polish it up?
I sanded it I have yet to sand the rest to 1000 and polish it
Your keyslots are upside down, bud... I hope you didn't fasten those down yet?
sorry i didn't respond sooner. i polish with meguiars all metal motorcycle polish. it's meant to make chrome shine.
this stuff, though you can find it for less at walmart in the automotive section (at least, in my walmart) Meguiar's Direct All Metal Polish
also, i apply it with a cotton ball in a circular motion until it's just black, then buff it off with a mcdonalds napkin. i don't know why, but i really feel that the napkin leaves a better shine than an old shirt, or even a microfiber cloth.
@devilstar i thought there was something off and I was impatient to check out a rear shot I can get em off without damaging them
@ saintnasty the stuff I got is pretty shiney but I might pick some meguirs up to see the difference
@devilstar i thought there was something off and I was impatient to check out a rear shot I can get em off without damaging them
@ saintnasty the stuff I got is pretty shiney but I might pick some meguirs up to see the difference
Or kitchen paper towel, I've used heeps of it so far and works a real treat!
also started using for polishing my AP armour, havent used a clothe to polish with sinse I started using kitchen towel. It's slight abrasive texture is exactly what you need for a high shine on just about anything that can be polished.
helmet is lookin' good btw TF!
looks like you got some meguiars on there. that shine is looking very good.
Looks Good, Good Work!
Actually saint that is just the cheap turtlewax wheel polish. Oh yeah
it's quite an improvement over the last set of pics.
That shine is great...One thing though...your left ear cap is done in the boba style not the Jango style. You will want to lower the top section of the ear cap.
I totally missed the earcap but small problem I definately used ca glue to attach the earcap. Any ideas to get it off?
yeah and Easy fix
Tuskenfett, I did the same thing the first time around which is why I noticed it. I used gorilla glue and was able to slide a thin blade under the ear cap and gently popped it off. I than sanded the extra glue down to reattach. You should be fine as long as you go slow.
I've heard acetone works as well will it ruin any of the helmet or earcap?
acetone will eat the paint and might muck up the finish on the silver parts. so proceed with caution when using that. sandysith's recommendation of using an exacto blade to gently pry will probably be your best bet. just take your time and go slow.
or if you're in a hurry, just use the rf stalk and pry that sucker right off.
but seriously, don't do that.
It's easy to see how he did that though... It looks like that's how its supposed to go on. I wonder why it's like that? Preproduction goof on the movie prop? It doesn't make sense (the gap being there when the ear is placed 'correctly').
Yeah it's manufactured to sit how it is now it's wierd why they would do it differently
Some outside pics
Started this too
may want to look at trimming the visor so that its more narrow it looks a little wide at the bottom only really
@ fett4real I took a taPe to it and it off by a millimeter max
And this
Test fit of upper armor

Pemetrexed injection treats lung cancer and belongs to the group of medicines called antineoplastics. It is used together with cisplatin (a cancer medicine) to treat a type of cancer called malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). This cancer affects the inside lining of the chest cavity. Pemetrexed injection may also be used alone or together with cisplatin to treat a type of lung cancer called nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer.
To lower your chances of side effects with pemetrexed, you must also take folic acid and vitamin B12 prior to and during your treatment. Your doctor will prescribe a medicine called a corticosteroid (cortisone medicine) to take for 3 days during your treatment. Corticosteroid medicines lower your chances of getting skin reactions with pemetrexed.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Kentucky Lottery players have snatched up all available Pick Four tickets with the 1-2-1-2 combination, in honor of Dec. 12, 2012.
All available 1-2-1-2 Pick 4 tickets for Wednesday's midday and evening drawing have been sold out. Tickets are still available for the 1-2-1 and 1-2-2 Pick 3 midday and evening drawings.
"We expect these remaining Pick 3 combinations will sell out today, especially when players see the 1-2-1-2 Pick 4 combinations have already been snapped up," said the KLC's Vice President of Communications Chip Polston. "Players looking for these specific numbers should check in at their local lottery retailer quickly since they probably won't last long."
A maximum of 2,500 $1 straight match tickets for a particular set of Pick 3 numbers are all that can be bought for the game's midday or evening drawing, as the potential prize liability for any combination cannot exceed $1.5 million. Pick 4 players have 300 $1 straight match midday and 300 $1 straight match evening tickets available for any numeric combination as this game has the same $1.5 million liability limit.
In examining records going back to June 1998, no instances of 1-2-1-2 being drawn were found. 1-2-1 was the winning Pick 3 number on August 7 2010, and 1-2-2 was last drawn on August 24 2006.

Beginning November 2012, many Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) small and medium business customers will move to time-of-use electric rates. PG&E's large agricultural and large commercial and industrial customers already underwent a similar transition. This is part of a statewide plan, including other California utilities, to ensure a better energy future and healthier environment.On time-of-use, rates will be higher during summer weekday afternoons when electric demand is higher, typically noon to 6 p.m., May through October. In return you'll pay lower rates at all other times. This means that when you use energy, is just as important as how much you use.PG&E is committed to helping business customers understand their energy use, find ways to conserve electricity, and benefit from time-of-use rates.
