PC World has a new spin today on the recent stories and predictions about the iPad 2 possibly having a screen resolution of 2048 x 1536. PC World spoke to IDC research manager Tom Mainelli who said that the recent reports about the iPad 2 having a quadrupled screen resolution are misleading, as it's likely that they refer to the iPad 3, rather than the iPad 2.
Mainelli added that he didnt believe that anyone was prepared to produce a device with such a large resolution in the sort of huge volumes that the iPad 2 would require at this point in time.I think the Digitimes story probably got the resolution right, but the iPad version wrong, Mainelli told PC World. Our sources say Apple has requested that manufacturers begin work on displays with that resolution for the iPad 3.
So, as ever, we have several different theories currently circulating about the next iPads display, and as ever well just have to wait and see what turns out to be true!

The Voice: Emotions run high as contestants battle it out
Emotions were running high for contestants and coaches on The Voice this weekend as stage two of the competition got underway.
Flirtatious Assi Hilani showed a more serious side in this week's episode as he struggled to decide who would make the cut for his final team. The battle between Muhsen Lutfawi and Murad Buriqi proved particularly difficult for the Lebanese superstar, as he said: "I'm going to cry, I swear on the lives of my children I am going to cry," before shielding his face from the audience. But, although the 'Arab knight' might be struggling with the sing-offs, he can take comfort in knowing that female viewers were pleased to see this more sensitive side.
This week even Saber Al Rubai managed to tone down the whacky antics as he focused on the serious business of picking his final team. In a standout performance two of his competitors, Ibrahim Al Dawalibi and Qusai Hatem, battled it out on stage with a duet of popular song 'Al Ghargan' (The Drowner). After some serious deliberating, Saber crowned Hatem as winner making another strong addition to his vocal squad.
Elsewhere on the panel, Kathem Al Saher is still managing to keep his cool. The Iraqi singer endeared himself to audiences this weekend when he took to the stage to apologise to popular contestant Wissam after she lost out to worthy competitor Ruby in a tense vocal battle.
And, this week even Sherine Abdel Wahab seemed more serious. Dressed to impress in red, the star was unnaturally quiet as she cast an eye over the battles. But, in true Shireen fashion in the last performance of the evening between Fareed Ghanem and Nouraldeen Dirballi, unable to make a decision the songstress dramatically hid behind her chair. After being urged to hurry up, an angry Shirine responded: "Damn you, you want me to rush into making a choice!" But, the usually unruly diva surprsisngly managed to stick to the show's rules choosing Fareed as her winner.
As the competition continues to heat up, all eyes are on the coaches to see how they will handle the growing pressure.
Which coach do you think has the strongest vocal team? And, were you happy with their choices this weekend? Leave us your comments below!

HUNTINGTON, Ind.— Huntington University students are returning to India for the third year in a row to serve at the Home of Love orphanage in Chennai. The trip, led by Dr. David Alexander and his wife, Gen, has been one of the most successful service trips in HU history, and the demand to attend the trip has students returning again for Jterm. Home of Love, an orphanage for Indian girls at risk of living on the streets or getting involved in prostitution, is forever bonded with HU. Students have raised thousands of dollars for the orphanage in past years in addition to leading Bible studies and performing on-site construction.The students attending this year are:
Students on campus for Jterm will be partaking in a batch of fresh classes for the three week session. Popular classes this year are "Scary Movies" with Dr. Tamara O'Hearn, "Jane Austen" with Dr. Jack Heller, and the return of the Harry Potter-themed "Hogwarts and Huntington" class with Dr. Dwight Brautigam.

Caravelli: Errors Will be Corrected |
Sevens - USA Sevens Men |
USA 7s team Head Coach Al Caravelli didn't have to be told why his team didn't perform better at the Gold Coast 7s, and he didn't have to be told, either, that the line between a good tournament and an iffy one is a thin one, indeed. "We came very close to beating South Africa," Caravelli told RUGBYMag.com. "Against the top teams in the world the margins are very close. They needed to bring in Cecil Afrika to bring them back, and if we'd played in Pan-Ams the way we played against South Africa, we would have won gold. So the silver lining is we continue to improve." But the coach also saw his team give any momentum they had away to Australia, and again, on the second day, to Scotland. "Overall in the tournament we made too many individual errors, and that cost us," he said. Those errors were magnified against Scotland and Australia." There were moments. Mike Palefau looked spry as he tested defenses repeatedly. He didn't get enough ball, but he played superbly at times. Zack Test was all over the field. But … there was the issue of those restarts. That, as outlined in the latest Eagle Eye Column, cost the USA severely as restart mistakes turned attacking opportunities for the USA into the same for the opposition. "The restarts were a problem," explained Caravelli. "We made five restart errors, the most of any team in the tournament. We made three all of last year. It is not only a change in momentum, it takes us out of our game. Testy is one of the best in the game at getting the kickoffs in the air, and we take him out of the game. That absolutely cannot happen, it's a mental issue, and those errors are unacceptable. They will be corrected this week before we open up against New Zealand in Dubai." On the positives, all the players got significant time. "Our depth is being tested already this season, and early, with the injuries we've had," Caravelli said. "So I wanted to use as many subs as possible. No player played every minute of every game, so we were able to rotate around subs and get to see players like Duncan Kelm and Tai Enosa and see what they could do. Nick Edwards has been away from 7s for over a year, coming back from injury, so he needs time to ease into it." And now, with Dubai and Port Elizabeth ahead, "we want to keep improving. We want to go forward, not backward. We need to support our line breaks, working in groups of three, not two, shore up those individual errors and - the handling errors - and correct those restarts. And we will start working on all of those as soon as possible." |

Northeast Market
Published: March 6, 2013
Located right up the street from the gargantuan Johns Hopkins Medicine complex, this most recently established of the municipal markets (late 1800s) serves both Hopkins employees and area residents, and is among the lesser-known of the markets outside of its immediate vicinity. This is unfortunate, because Northeast Market (2101 E. Monument St.) has really high-quality, strikingly low-priced prepared food. Be advised that traffic around here is always a pain in the ass, and the only real parking is toward the southeast end on McElderry Street, where there is a metered lot and some street spaces. On said street, be sure to check out West Indian Flavor, one of the few Indo-Caribbean places in the city.
The largest of but two produce stands, Richardson Farms usually has a very good selection of fresh vegetables, including an array of greens. Like a lot of city-market produce vendors, they sometimes like to price produce by the piece, e.g. "X cents per pepper," instead of by weight, which makes comparison shopping a little tricky, although, to be fair, many supermarkets are moving to this pricing strategy as well. If you're feeling a little pinched, you can always try your hand at haggling, but we recommend that for experts only.
Although it smacks a bit of circular logic, there is something to be said for that old chestnut "look for the longest line" if you want to find the best food. Although the menu at Home BBQ and Fish is fairly standard (and aptly described in its name), lines here are indeed long all the time, due, no doubt, to the excellent value combination of low prices and big portions, like a hefty solo piece of lake trout for $3.70.
Shore's Seafood is the largest and most comprehensive of the seafood stalls here. Shore's has a handy list of lunch specials for around that comprise various sea animals with various forms of cooking (steaming, frying) and various sides (broccoli, potatoes), like steamed shrimp and vegetables for $6.95 or an entire pound of steamed mussels with butter for $5.95. They also have soups, excellent coddies, and a fresh fish case, from which you can pick a fish for them to clean and cook.
Tucked back the the southwest corner of the market, Bowen's Bakery has beautiful cases full of myriad baked goods. The carrot cake—which, like most other cakes, is served in big single-serving rectangles—is very good at $3.50 per slice. Everything is a little too big, a little too sweet, and has a little too much frosting. Which is obviously fucking awesome.
Standout booth Fresh Roast Marketplace specializes in cafeteria food, if cafeteria food was really good real food. The husband-and-wife team here actually takes time to, yep, roast fresh turkey, ham, beef, and corned beef, as well as make from-scratch meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and stuffing. Good stuff, huge portions, and cheap ($6.75 for all platters, which include a protein and a side). Be warned that the homemade iced tea—actually this applies to anywhere in this market—is about 1 jillion times sweeter than is reasonable.
One hallmark of Northeast Market is the incredibly cheap sandwiches, and Rex's Deli is the king: Lunch specials will sometimes include cold cut sandwiches for less than $3—less than $3.
If you want a bit of an upgrade from Rex's and the standard supermarket-deli-style cold cuts which are the norm at Northeast, try JA Wa Market: certainly a place that combines shrimp and mango qualifies. The tropical shrimp salad sandwich is still only $6.39. Sadly, due to JA and Wa being two words, Stars Wars references are precluded. And for something more left-fieldish, the place called James' Wraps actually serves tacos and Chinese food, and the dude's name is Bob. Just kidding about that last part.
There are numerous other chicken places in the market, some perhaps larger and certainly better-known, but we find that the fried chicken livers at Brunner's are among the most addictive. Wait, you've never had fried chicken livers? And you call yourself a Baltimorean? For shame. It'll be some of the best $3 you ever spent. Well, unless you don't like liver.
Something Fresh is a truly photo-worthy stall, since on one side you have a fairly straightforward salad bar that is all but dwarfed on the other side by bins full of bulk candy. Yes, bulk candy, like you'd find at a bulk candy store in the mall. For use as dessert—or as an avant-garde salad topping. Your call.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 5:44 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 21, 2013
By Joe Kelley
News 96.5 - Orlando
An online video game of last year's Sandy Hook school massacre, in which 26 people were killed, including 20 first-graders, is drawing shock and outrage, including from victims' family members.
According to Connecticut TV station WTNH, the game has now been removed by the hosting web site after initial media reports spawned several complaints.
The one year anniversary of that massacre is just a few weeks away, on Dec. 14th.
The Hartford Courant reports that the computer simulation game, called "The Slaying of Sandy Hook Elementary School," lets players re-enact killer Adam Lanza's actions on that day, with the virtual Lanza gunman firing at students and teachers.
After news reports about the game, relatives of teacher Victoria Soto, who was killed in the attack, wrote in a tweet to game creator Ryan Jake Lambourn, "Please tell us how playing a game that recreates how Vicki died would be beneficial? Please tell us."
Lambourn defended his game, saying it was meant to promote tough gun control laws.
He said, "Here we are nearly a year after the Sandy Hook shootings in which 26 people were killed and absolutely nothing positive has come out of it."
The Courant writes that Lambourn explains in the game's credits that he grew up in Houston and later moved to Australia, which made sweeping changes to its gun laws after a 2001 massacre there.
Lambourn also created a game about the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, in which 32 people were killed by a gunman.

I'm going to buy a Music Star and a tama-go soon... What should I know?
Posted 13 November 2012 - 09:56 AM ( #1 )
Posted 13 November 2012 - 11:21 AM ( #3 )
Is there anything I should know about them?
-Well, the Tama-Go screen is quite big(roughly 60x40 pixels) and has a 4-level grayscale screen, which means backgrounds are possible. Oh yeah, Tamatown is down. This means you cannot connect. It's not a drama imo for the Tama-Go, because the only thing you could do is transfer points.
Are they so terribly different than the older ones?
-Well, compared to a vintage one, yes. It has a shop where you can buy food and background. The food restocks with new items about 3 times a day and if you earned enough gotchi-points with playing games sometimes a new background can show up. They include 2(3 with the including figure) games which are a lot more advanced than a simple guessing game as the P1/P2 had. You can also visit the park and marry eventually when you're minimal 6 gotchi-years old.
Are they difficult to keep track of?
-Not really, much the same as the vintages imo. They can beep once in a while when they want attention.
Can they be paused?
-Yes, pressing A and B simultaneously causes it to pause.
Is it necessary to buy the extra figurines for the tama-go?
-Well I guess it would be extra fun, ofcourse. But it is not really that necessary to run properly or so. So far, I haven't bough any figures yet, and I'm still pleased with my tama.
Can they connect with any other versions besides their own?
-Yes, I believe so. In the connect icon, I can choose Tama-Go and other. I'm not sure however with which other versions.
Hope I could help.

I don't have much to contribute today – no new setups on the horizon and the ones that triggered yesterday/today are still in the process of getting their groove on. The first half of the session was pretty tranquil and suddenly the E-Mini dropped its ass as if it was competing for Juicy J's twerking scholarship:
We could make things a lot more elaborate here but the game is not about fancy charts, it's about staying on the right side of the tape. Thus I suggest that we focus on the 25-hour SMA for now. It's been holding up since the recent 1832.25 low and every stab lower was quickly recovered. Now if we close below it then we may be looking at a more pronounced correction – perhaps all the way down to the 100-hour which is now climbing near 1860.
The GBP/JPY (one of the current carry trade pairs) also has remained supportive, so as of right now this looks like an attempt to scare the children a little. Stay cool, don't get over exposed, stick with your stops – that's the ticket
Honorable mention – today's Mole reversal signal on the Zero Lite (right panel). Very sweet – it pointed down 5 minutes before they it fell off the plate. If you're not a subscriber yet then I suggest you take a good look at the chart above and then sign up here
It's not too late – learn how to consistently bank coin without news, drama, and all the misinformation. If you are interested in becoming a subscriber then don't waste time and sign up here.

MSU Approves Big Renovations for Spartan Stadium
Posted: 3:34 PM Sep 7, 2012
Reporter: Hannah Saunders
The locker rooms of Spartan Stadium will be completely renovated, a new concession and restroom area will be built over the north field entrance, the media trailers will be converted over to rooms, and all the gates will be reconstructed further away from the stadium to comply with new homeland security requests.
"They're kind of things that needed to be done," said MSU President Lou Anna K. Simon.
Simon says it's tough to tell how much it will cost so early in the planning but, but will probably be between $10-20 million. But according to Deputy Athletic Director Greg Ianni, it won't cost the University or any of the students a cent.
"We're out fund-raising, because this is a project supported by donor dollars," and the most important result Ianni and Simon are aiming for is finally having these parts of the stadium at least as nice as most of the other big ten schools.
"We're gonna have the opportunity to bring the stadium back up to the standard it should be at for the quality of the institution," said Ianni.
Along with the hopes of making the stadium more functional for not just football.
"There are many universities that would've seen that as simply athletic space; they would've kept it for just athletic purposes. It's become a university space."
Adding that the renovations will help them be even more hospitable to visiting teams and fans.

11/8/11 Still working on the medals guys, hang in there. Also tried some more optimizing to fix the slippery/sticky controls issue some of you have. (also, if you have a FB tab up, try closing that)
**CONTROLS** LEFT/RIGHT walk left/right UP = Jump DOWN = Raise shield (while standing)/Use Weapon(later in game,while standing)
Oyeatia, creator and god of man surrenders his deity, descending to the green earth in search of a lost love. Gyossait sleeps in the warm black heart of the dying planet, her dreams seep into the weakening minds of man. The end begins.
Update History:
11/5/11 Patched vanishing keys, walking off map, alternative ending, Medals implemented but pending.
The finely crafted atmosphere is some of the best i've ever seen. The story is well thought out. The mechanics were simple but beautiful.
Only thing. It felt a little slow and floaty at times but everything else was just as slow so it didn't detract from the game. It DID make dying a little more painful though, which is arguably a good thing.
I liked it, for what it was...
...a vaguely creepy artsy platformer. Liked the ambience, liked the design. Only real issue I have here is that I got bored fairly quickly; that's not a slight on the gameplay, just a personality deficit of mine. I'm of the MTV generation, man, my attention wanders fast unless you keep hitting me with new stuff. I will say that I liked the ambient sound so much that I kept the game running in a separate tab whilst I went about my other business.
Could be better
I can tell that the game was made well with the atmospheric sounds and music, but I find it hard to be scared by a game with such low resolution. I've played games like Silent Hill and Dead Space which are really creepy games, but I can't really get scared of a game that has you fighting monsters that you cant really tell what they lok like because of the low resolution. Also, there doesn't seem to actually be any story, at least not from the parts that I played. Granted I only played for about 45 minutes before I got bored of it, but I think that in itself tells you something about the game. Also, the controls were a bit annoying because when jumping you cannot choose how high/far you jump which make the platforming aspect of the game more difficult than it needs to be. Don't get me wrong, the game looks neat and all, there really isnt many scary NEW style platformers, but I can't help but feel like the game could've been a lot better.
A lot of what I have to say has already been touch
I could tell you were trying to go for something deep and artistic, and I respect that; I love thought-provoking media.
But the game could REALLY have done with more explaination/exposition as to what was going. I THINK I got the gist: you play a god, creator of mankind, who descends to the planet to find your beloved, the "Earth" goddess, who is trapped within the planet, dreaming... Then I guess mankind got arrogant and took her heart, or something, and it caused her dreams to seep into reality and brought about the end of the world...? It was all very confusing....
But what I DID enjoy was the atmosphere. It gave a good dark, artistic vibe that I thought worked well with the "low tech" pixel images and midi-like sound. As for the music, it conveyed a pretty Silent Hill-esque feel, which is always great.
So, in short, you did a good job on the environment and tone, but we really good have used a better explaination of what you were trying to convey.
What the Hell!?
It is a totally confusing game, I really don't get the story line, the move instructions and game type is very hard to read and understand. The game mechanics and the effort deserve attention, but in the end this game isn't anything special and will probably be forgotten by the end of next week.
Sorry if that seems harsh, but this is a halloween time game and is very limited in its ability to be played and enjoyed year-round.

Producer Services, Manufacturing Linkages, and Trade
Working with a mix of panel data on goods and services trade for the OECD for 1994-2004, combined with social accounts data (i.e. data on intermediate linkages) for 78 countries benchmarked to the panel midpoint, we examine the role of services as inputs in manufacturing, with a particular focus on indirect exports of services through merchandise exports, and also on the related interaction between service sector openness and the overall pattern of manufacturing exports. From the cross-section, we also develop a set of stylized facts linking services to level of development and the density of intermediate linkages. We find significant and strong positive effects from increased business service openness (i.e. greater levels of imports) on industries like machinery, motor vehicles, chemicals and electric equipment, supporting the notion that off-shoring of business services may promote the competitiveness of the most skill and technology intensive industries in the OECD. Conversely, we find evidence of negative general equilibrium effects for sectors that are less service intensive.Download Info

My husband and I are getting ready to completely gut and remodel a small bathroom in our house. There is only room for a 4' bathtub, so I have found a few to chose from, but the problem is that they all are for 3 wall enclosed and I only have two walls to put it against. Any ideas or suggestions that I can do with the open side? I only have about 4" to work with.
I will post pics when we get started.
Had you considered a shower instead of that small tub? No normal adult would ever consider taking a bath in it, and children would likely outgrow it fairly fast. If it's only used for showers, then why not make it a nice shower?
You could make a knee wall, then glass above to the ceiling.

Developed the screenplay "The Anarchist's Daughter" at the Screenwriter's Lab of the Sundance Institute |
Born on March 28, 1981 in New York, NY, Stiles was raised by her father, John O'Hara, a businessman and educator, and her mother, Judith, a potter. When she was 11 years old, Stiles was prescient enough to write a letter to a stage director convincing him to hire her for an avant-garde production, leading to performing with the La MaMa Theatre Company in New York. Venturing into onscreen roles just a few years later, she had a non-speaking part in the low-budget drama "I Love You, I Love You Not" (1997) before playing the teenage daughter of a New York police officer (Harrison Ford) in the terrorist thriller "The Devil's Own" (1997). Stiles offered a strong supporting performance as Phoebe, a young girl coping with an abusive home in the Oprah Winfrey-produced "Before Women Had Wings" (ABC, 1997). While her character was peripheral, she made the most of the part as the ambivalent older sister of an innocent and trusting girl (Tina Majorino), both of whom suffer at the hands of their mother (Ellen Barkin).
Putting pen to paper once again, Stiles used a similar tack as she did with the La MaMa Theatre by writing a note to director Michael Steinberg and landing her breakthrough role in the darkly comic thriller "Wicked" (1998), an Electra-like fable set in the immaculate suburbs. Blonde and fair, with wise eyes set in an otherwise childlike face, Stiles played the perfect angelic villain Ellie Christianson, a seductive, calculating and driven young teen. She offered an exceptional performance that conveyed Ellie's power and maniacal determination while still hinting at the emotional fragility that accompanied her youth. Turning to television, Stiles went on to play the featured role of Kate Herlihy, a pregnant teenager who moves to San Francisco and joins a hippie commune where she finds herself caught up in the social upheaval of the time in the historical miniseries "The 60s" (NBC, 1999). She returned to the big screen in the leading role of Kat, a strong-willed and dauntless high school student romanced by a hired beau (Heath Ledger) who inevitably falls for her in "10 Things I Hate About You" (1999), a modern adaptation of Shakespeare's comedy "The Taming of the Shrew." Rarely cast as an innocent, enthusiastic teenybopper, she capably presented Kat as staunch and outspoken while still making her a likable character.
After co-starring with Freddie Prize, Jr. in the disappointing romance "Down to You" (2000), Stiles returned to contemporary adaptations of Shakespeare with the techno-savvy "Hamlet" (2000), which found her playing the unhinged Ophelia opposite Ethan Hawke's struggling filmmaker and son of the slain CEO (Sam Shepard) of Denmark Corporation. In David Mamet's mild Hollywood satire, "State and Main" (2000), she portrayed a calculating teen out to seduce a movie star (Alec Baldwin) filming in her small Vermont town. Meanwhile, Stiles made it seem as if none of the Bard's work could be modernized without her participation after she was cast as Desi in "O" (2001), a retelling of "Othello" set in a prep school, and starring Mekhi Phifer and Josh Hartnett. Filmed in 1999 but not released theatrically until 2001, thanks to its theme of teen violence and the rash of real-life incidents, "O" was somewhat lost in the shuffle despite its powerful storytelling and strong performances.
With her next film, Stiles had a surprise hit the helped propel her to stardom. She portrayed an aspiring ballerina who falls in love with a black student (Sean Patrick Thomas) in "Save the Last Dance" (2001), a dance-fueled teen romance that somewhat captured the charm of its popular predecessors like "Flashdance" (1983) and "Dirty Dancing" (1987). Though the movie topped the box office and went on to earn a surprising $90 million, "Save the Last Dance" was coolly received by critics. Stiles moved on to a more mature role in the controversial independent "The Business of Strangers" (2001), cast opposite veteran Stockard Channing as an ambitious and eventually destructive young businesswoman. The actress turned in a bold performance as the manipulative Paula, impressing even critics who gave the film unfavorable reviews. Next was a small role in Doug Liman's take on the Robert Ludlum bestseller, "The Bourne Identity" (2002), which starred Matt Damon as a spy and assassin struggling to find his identity after developing amnesia. Unfortunately, Stiles had little to do as a CIA assistant other than look good on screen.
It was during this time that Stiles decided to slow down her career some and focus on her education, studying literature at Columbia University and eventually earning her degree in 2005. But she did still made movies, starring opposite Jason Lee and Selma Blair in the rather forgettable romantic comedy, "A Guy Thing" (2003). She next reprised her role as the knowledgeable CIA functionary, Nicky, for the successful sequel "The Bourne Supremacy" (2004); this time having a bit more to do, like being held at gunpoint by a desperate Jason Bourne (Damon). Stiles then appeared opposite fellow up-and-comers Kirsten Dunst and Maggie Gyllenhaal as 1950s-era students of a liberal-minded Wellesley College instructor Julia Roberts in "Mona Lisa Smile" (2003). Stiles played Joan Brandwyn, a senior who finds herself torn between her best friend's (Dunst) traditional notion of marriage and her mentor's (Roberts) urgings to pursue greater goals at Yale Law School. The actress slightly squandered her talents in a role she had long outgrown, playing a med school student who falls for a European royal in the predictable, teen-oriented romantic comedy "The Prince & Me" (2004).
After starring opposite Shirley MacLaine in the small-town comedy, "Carolina"(2004), Stiles made her London debut opposite Aaron Eckhart in a revival of David Mamet's "Oleanna" (2004). A small role in the musical drama, "Romance and Cigarettes" (2005) was followed by a starring turn opposite Liev Schreiber in the remake of "The Omen" (2006), taking on the role played by Lee Remick in the original 1976 version. Stiles marked her debut as a director with the 20-minute short film, "Raving" (2006), which she made in collaboration with Elle magazine. Starring Zooey Deschanel, the story focused on a young woman who manipulates a down-and-out corporate executive (Bill Irwin) with an eye toward looting his home. Back in front of the camera, she had her most to do in the third film of the franchise, "The Bourne Ultimatum" (2007), as her Nicky Parsons helps Jason Bourne uncover the truth of his past once and for all. Following a supporting turn in the straight-to-DVD, Civil Rights-themed drama, "Gospel Hill" (2009), Stiles starred as a small town woman who falls for a mysterious new stranger (Paddy Considine) in "The Cry of the Owl" (2010). She next turned to the small screen for a 10-episode guest starring stint, playing the new love interest of everyone's favorite serial killer (Michael C. Hall) on the popular "Dexter" (Showtime, 2006- ). Hailed by critics, her performance earned the young actress a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actress in late 2010, and the following year received an Emmy Award nod for Outstanding Guest Actress.

Notes |
"I always loved how people like Jon Voight and Laurence Olivier shocked you every time they came on-screen. They were so different each time. That's what I hope to do with acting - be the chameleon and not get stuck in a type." - Stiles quoted in Vanity Fair magazine, August 1998 |
"I tend to gravitate toward the more powerful roles. As opposed to the doe-eyed girl who bats her eyelashes and runs around in towels, you now what I mean? Because that kind of makes me want to vomit." - Stiles quoted in Movieline magazine, September 1998 |
Stiles on her many Shakespeare roles: "I really like Shakespeare a lot. The characters that he writes for females, I think, are really great and a lot more compelling than what modern writers write, which is weird because they didn't have actresses then." - Stiles to the Daily News, April 12, 1999 |
Stiles on the fear that taking a career break to attend Columbia University will stall her career, to the London Times (March 29, 2001): "I definitely worry about that. I think about it all the time because that's the way Hollywood thinks. It's all about momentum and keeping your name out there, and college certainly takes you away from that. But, if I look at it in the longer term, it's so worthwhile. Acting is a wonderful forum to express yourself, but there are things I want to study that you can't learn on a film set." |
"She's not your typical cheesecake pinup girl. She's beautiful and talented and has the mouth of a truck driver when necessary." - Selma Blair on Stiles to Us Weekly, Jan. 20, 2003 |
"Being an actor is looked at like a prolonged game of dress-up. America puts movie stars on pedestals. In college, it's the flip side. I sometimes have to justify my job to my professors because they're focused on intellect and ideas." - Stiles to People magazine, April 6, 2004 |
Stiles worked for Habitat for Humanity, building housing in Costa Rica, and has worked with Amnesty International to try to raise awareness of the harsh conditions of immigration detention of unaccompanied juveniles. |
In the January 2004 issue of Marie Claire magazine, Stiles was featured on a trip to see conditions at the Berks County Youth Center in Leesport, Pennsylvania. |
Stiles was an ex-vegan. She gave up veganism after she developed anemia and found it difficult to get proper nutrition while traveling. |

We don't keep a kettle boiling on the stove all day for the one moment when we want tea, so why do we keep water heated around the clock when all we need it for is a shower or a load of laundry?

Oxfam to Bill Clinton: You're Failing Haiti
A year after an earthquake shook the small island-nation of Haiti, a mere 5 percent of the rubble has been cleared. Not even half of the donor money pledged has arrived. The government has failed to show leadership, and international NGOs are not helping -- circumventing the Haitian authorities to write their own rules. Perhaps most biting, the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC) chaired by Bill Clinton and Haitian Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive has so far "failed" to deliver its mandate for reconstruction, plagued instead by "contradictory policies and priorities."
These are the findings of a new report released today by the British-based charity Oxfam International. It's a damning read out on the last year of reconstruction -- or as the paper makes clear, lack thereof. While the emergency response is lauded for saving millions of people with vital supplies, services, and shelters, "neither the Haitian state nor the international community is making significant progress in reconstruction."
What went wrong? The report paints a picture of an international effort entirely divorced from the needs and wishes of the Haitian people -- not to mention the Haitian government. The original Action Plan meant to be put into place by the IHRC was favored by a mere 17.5 percent of Haitians, according to an Oxfam poll cited in the report. In implementation, the commission failed to include government ministers, for example consulting them in a tardy fashion -- and providing documents for review often only in English (the Haitian government operates in French). Individual NGOs and aid organizations actually carrying out the relief effort have done no better. "Many aid agencies continue to bypass local and national authorities in the delivery of assistanc," the report claims.
Ok, so the international community has been ignoring the Haitian government and just plowing ahead according to their own plan. Maybe that sounds like a good idea -- indeed, the government lacks much of the capacity to run the country's services and infrastructure today. It's incredibly tempting as an aid operation to want to cut corners, forget to do a bit of paperwork, or just fail to consult the local government -- so that your program can start helping people a few days or hours sooner. But the fact that Haiti's government is seen as inept is precisely the point. The Haitian authorities will never have that capacity to run Haiti if the international community cuts them out. So unless the international community plans on staying and running Haiti forever (something that Haitians would never -- and should never -- stand for), this is a disaster of an approach.
Ironically, these are the very same principles that the IHRC itself recognizes and has nominally committed to. One of its founding precepts was to empower Haitian authorities and help build up expertise in the local ministries. But like rebuilding a country, it seems this is easier said than done.

Angiography (also called "arteriography") is a special X-ray of the heart, coronary artery, peripheral arteries and other blood vessels. A dye is injected into the bloodstream for this procedure, which produces very detailed diagnostic pictures.
A stent is a metal slotted tube that provides support to keep a blood vessel wide open. Drug-eluting stents are coated with medications that can help prevent an artery from re-clogging (restenosis) after angioplasty or surgery.
Myocardial biopsy is a technique in which the physician uses special forceps to remove a tiny piece of heart tissue. The tissue is then analyzed for clues about the patient's heart disease.
