Imbolc is a time, for many Pagans, of new beginnings. Spring is looming close by, new life is beginning to stir beneath the surface of the land, and it's a season for spiritual reawakenings. If you've already dedicated yourself to the gods of your magical tradition, why not use Imbolc as a time of rededication? By reaffirming your commitment to the deities of your pantheon, you can reawaken the sense of wonder and magic that may have been lying dormant through the cold dark months of winter. Note: If you're part of a group that is initiating new members, you may want to try this Group Initiation Rite instead.
This rededication ritual is designed for use by a solitary practitioner, but can easily be adapted to group practice. If you're a solitary dedicating for the first time, try our Self-Dedication Ritual.
Bear in mind that rededication is a commitment you are making. It is a way of symbolizing that you are dedicated enough to the gods of your tradition to continue honoring them throughout the coming year. The purpose of this ritual is to reaffirm that commitment, and is not something to be done at random or without significant thought beforehand.
You may choose to perform this ritual skyclad; at Imbolc it is often too chilly for ritual nudity, so another option is to wear a simple ritual robe. This will allow you some freedom of movement as needed. Find a quiet place to perform this rite, where you will be free of distractions like cell phones and children. You will need the following items:
- One plain candle for each of the deities you wish to honor
- An offering of some sort, depending on your gods
If your tradition requires you to cast a circle, do so at this time.
Begin by grounding yourself. This is a way of focusing yourself and reconnecting. Shut out all the things from your mundane life that are distracting to you – focus on the Self, and your relationship with your gods and goddesses.
Your god/goddess candles should be on your altar or workspace. A brief note here about selecting candles to represent the gods: many Pagans, including Wiccans, honor a god and a goddess, and so would use two candles. If your tradition or belief system honors multiple gods, feel free to use as many candles as necessary. Likewise, if you honor a single divine being, use a single candle. If you wish, you can use colored candles – for many people, the goddess Brighid, is represented by the color green, so you may wish to incorporate a green candle into a rite honoring her. If you honor Mars, the Roman god of war, you may choose to use a red candle. Use whatever color is appropriate; if you're not sure which color to select, use basic white.
One at a time, light the candles representing your gods. As you light each candle, say:
I call upon you, [deity's name], as one who walks your path.
I am [your name], and once more I pledge myself to you this night.
I will walk by your side, honoring you as I may, and ask only
That you watch over me as one who pays you tribute.
I thank you, [deity's name], and again I promise you service.
You may also want to personalize your pledges to your gods – for example, if you were honoring the Morrighan, you may wish to include something about protection and strength. A call to Lugh might include a comment about skills and craftsmanship. Tailor your rededication pledges as needed.
Next, present your offering to the gods of your tradition. This will vary, depending on which gods your tradition honors, and what they demand in tribute. As you present your offering, place it in front of the candle(s) representing the gods. Say something along the lines of:
Hear me, O great gods! I call upon you, [names of deities],
And offer you this gift.
I present to you my tribute of [offering], as a token of my dedication.
Know that I will honor you and ask nothing in return,
Beyond your watching over me.
Hear me, great gods, O [names of deities], and know that
I, [your name], am your servant/ your priestess/ your child/[other appropriate description].
Please, accept my offering.
Take some time to meditate. Feel the afterglow of the ritual, and feel the energy of the gods around you. You have brought yourself to the attention of the Divine, so they will be keeping an eye on you. Be sure you can uphold any pledges you have made to them during this ceremony.

The Trussell Trust has been named 'Britain's Most Admired Charity' at Third Sector's 2013 charity award ceremony held at Google HQ in London. The award was based on the votes of CEO's of UK charities and not-for-profit organisations who were asked to select a charity that had gained the admiration of others in the sector through its recent achievements. These could include achieving its objectives, providing outstanding service to beneficiaries or carving out a distinctive position and voice for itself. Find out more here
Trussell Trust foodbanks have seen the biggest rise in numbers given emergency food since the charity began in 2000. Almost 350,000 people have received at least three days emergency food from Trussell Trust foodbanks during the last 12 months, nearly 100,000 more than anticipated and close to triple the number helped in 2011-12. Rising cost of living, static incomes, changes to benefits, underemployment and unemployment have meant increasing numbers of people in the UK have hit a crisis that forces them to go hungry. This dramatic rise in foodbank usage predates April's welfare reforms, which could see numbers increase further in 2013-14.
Of 2000 mothers surveyed by Netmums recently, 1 in 5 regularly go without meals to feed their children, 16% are being treated for stress-related illnesses and one third are borrowing money from friends and family to stay afloat. Most mothers stated that their situation is worse than a year ago with less money coming in.
Foodbanks meet mums in desperate situations every week. This week foodbank mum Donna was almost in tears as she told me that she couldn't afford birthday presents to give to her twins who will be 13 on Sunday. She said that her sons had asked to have a friend come to stay to celebrate their birthday but she hasn't said yes because she's not sure they can afford the extra food. Donna used to work in a school for children with Aspergers and Autism but is currently off work due to depression - which has been exacerbated by the family's financial worries. Her partner was recently made redundant and they are currently living on £38 per week due to mistakes with their benefits. This is the reality behind the statistics. Donna says she will be 'eternally grateful' for their foodbox. Without it she says she would have gone without food and had to try to scrape together enough money to give the children something, even just bread and butter. The family are keen to get back into work, that's the hope that keeps them going.
We're looking for volunteers to help run the foodbank. If you can spare a few hours a week, why not get in touch. There are lots of things that need doing from sorting food and fundraising to meeting clients and supermarket collections. Why not see where you fit in?
You may know him for his roles in Love Actually and Pirates of the Caribbean, but actor Bill Nighy is a keen campaigner on social justice. As one of the voices of the Robin Hood Tax campaign, Bill wanted to find out more about UK poverty and Oxfam suggested that he visit a Trussell Trust foodbank!Recently, we took Bill to Hammersmith and Fulham foodbank where he met foodbank clients, heard their stories and even packed a foodbox himself. At the end of his visit we asked Bill what he thought, he told us: 'It's very moving to come here in modern times to see a room incredibly well stocked with donated food for people who, through no fault of their own, have dropped through the cracks. The fact that the people here volunteer to help is both touching and exemplary. I salute all those involved.' Watch Guardian online's film of Bill's visit
Foodbanks are opening at an unprecedented rate to meet the high demand for emergency food aid: in 2011 The Trussell Trust has launched a new foodbank every week, launching its 100th UK foodbank this week. We've also launched our first international foodbank in Sofia, Bulgaria.
61,000 people nationwide have received emergency food handouts from The Trussell Trust's UK foodbanks in the last 12 months, 50% more than last year. Most foodbank recipients are not homeless; they are low-income working families who hit crisis, people who have been made redundant or people experiencing benefits delays. We are excited that more and more churches and communities across the UK are seeing the need on their doorsteps and working with us to launch more foodbanks.
Could your local church launch a foodbank?
Following the closure of three local companies, Okehampton foodbank has seen numbers needing emergency food soar from 20 to 200 per week. Unemployment in the Devon town has risen from 2% to nearly 12% leaving many former employees with no choice but to rely on food parcels from Okehampton foodbank until redundancy packages and benefit payments come through. The plight of the people in Okehampton and surge in numbers turning to the foodbank has been widely reported by the national media. Whilst local people have rallied to provide extra food to meet the demand, the foodbank is still under pressure. Okehampton foodbank's Andrew Morgan told the Guardian, "We are still appealing for food, it is desperately needed: some staff made redundant hadn't been paid for weeks. There really are people with no money and they really can't afford to put food on the table."Adrian and Kay Vernon were both made redundant from Polestar foods, Okehampton, and suddenly left with no money. With a four-year-old daughter to feed, Adrian told the BBC that his foodbox was 'a lifesaver'.Unemployment nationwide is at a 17-year high and foodbanks across the country are experiencing huge demand. This year the UK foodbank network estimates it has fed 60,000 people; an increase of nearly 20,000 people from the previous year.
The foodbank is run in partnership with local churches in Devizes
The foodbank network is part of The Trussell Trust, a Christian charity committed to community action against poverty and marginalisation in the UK and Bulgaria

With the release of the updated 7d firmware, the writing's on the wall - it's hardly probably that a 7d2 is just around the corner if the year-old model gets a free facelift. So what's your take on Canon's strategy for the mid-price range?
Until Canon improves its sensors, why even bother. 7D has awesome AF and does insane FPS. Now with the buffer upgrade, it is just top of the line Canon Crop.
So, there is nothing to upgrade.

As the 31st anniversary of the Islamic Revolution approaches this week, with the promise of mass protests from Iran's growing opposition movement, it's tempting to compare the upheaval with unrest that ultimately toppled the shah of Iran.

The Iranian government's use of force has cleared dissenters from the streets. Reza Sayah reports
The chants, the clashes, the outrage, the blood -- for more than two weeks, the world watched as the fallout from Iran's presidential elections unraveled from peaceful demonstrations to government-led crackdowns on city streets.
A witness describes beatings at a new protest under way in downtown Tehran.
Despite his threats of "consequences" and the subsequent beatings and shooting deaths by government agents, the open protests on Iran's streets by hundreds of thousands of people have dented the shield of invincibility of Iran's Supreme religious Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, say sources in Iran.
The effectiveness with which Iran's security forces have dealt with the worst outbreak of political violence since the 1979 Islamic revolution illustrates the scale of the challenge faced by the Green Revolution's supporters in changing the way the country is governed.

(SULAIMANIYAH, Iraq) -- Iran closed major border crossings with northern Iraq on Monday to protest the U.S. detention of an Iranian official the military accused of weapons smuggling, a Kurdish official said.At least four border gates have been closed and one remains open, the governor of the Kurdish province of Sulaimaniyah, Dana Ahmed Majeed, told The Associated Press. The move threatens the economy of Iraq's northern region -- one of the country's few success stories.In Tehran, the public relations department in Iran's Interior Ministry said no decision had been taken to shut the border.But Kurdish authorities said the Iranians began shutting down the crossing points late Sunday near the border towns of Banjiwin, Haj Omran, Halabja and Khanaqin.The closings came four days after U.S. troops arrested an Iranian official during a raid on a hotel in Sulaimaniyah, 160 miles northeast of Baghdad.U.S. officials said he was a member of the elite Quds force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards that smuggles wea

U.S.-led coalition forces say they have captured a "highly sought" individual in Iraq with alleged ties to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force.
Iran's supreme leader announced a new chief for the country's elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on Saturday, as the Bush administration considered giving terror status to the state military agency.
New leader for Iran troops
Putting the country's Revolutionary Guard on the terror list is more than just bluster. It's likely the clearest sign yet that this Administration will not leave office without starting another war in the Middle East
Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards said they would not bow to pressure and threatened to "punch" the U.S., in their first response to Washington's plan to list them as a terrorist organization, newspapers reported Saturday.
The United States has "irrefutable evidence" that Tehran is transferring arms to Taliban fighters in Afghanistan, a top U.S. diplomat told CNN Wednesday, noting that NATO forces have intercepted some of the arms shipments.
Evidence of ties to the JFK terror plot is thin. But it's not hard to believe, says Robert Baer, that Iran is eyeing American targets
U.S. and Iraqi troops have detained 16 people they say are "directly related to the attack" on May 12 in which three U.S. soldiers were apparently captured, a U.S. military official said.
The 15 British military personnel captured by Iranian forces in the Persian Gulf were subjected to "psychological pressure" and kept in isolation during their detention, the group's officers said on Friday.
The British media reacted with outrage Thursday after Arab television broadcast video footage of British marines and sailors who were captured by Iranian Revolutionary Guards last week.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is rejecting new United Nations sanctions as illegal, according to IRNA, the state-run Iranian news agency.
A bomb went off Friday night at a girls school in the southeastern Iranian border city of Zahedan, according to the semi-official FARS News Agency.
It is not known whether senior Iranian political leaders are aware of the military Quds force's involvement in providing armor-piercing explosives to militants in Iraq, two top U.S. defense officials have said.
A car bomb ripped through an Iranian military bus in the southeastern Iranian border town of Zahedan Wednesday morning, leaving at least 11 dead and 31 wounded, state-run Iranian news agency IRNA reported.
The Pentagon is investigating whether a recent attack on a military compound in Karbala was carried out by Iranians or Iranian-trained operatives, two officials from separate U.S. government agencies said.
An Iranian military plane crashed shortly after takeoff in Tehran Monday morning, state-run IRINN television reported, killing 36 servicemen.
U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld acknowledged Tuesday the potential for civil war in Iraq but slammed the media for "exaggerated" reports about the security situation following recent violence between religious factions.
A military plane with 11 passengers on board has crashed in northwestern Iran, killing a number of high-ranking officials in Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, Iran's state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) reported.
The death toll from the crash of an Iranian military transport plane near Tehran has risen to at least 116, according to Iranian officials and state-run media.
An Iranian military transport plane has crashed near Tehran after hitting a 10-story apartment building, killing at least 110 people -- most of them aboard the plane -- Iranian officials and state-run media reported.
International acts of terror in 2003 were the fewest in more than 30 years, according to the U.S. State Department's annual terrorism report released Thursday.

She met her husband-to-be, Alec R. Corenevsky, at Hunters Point and they were married on Feb. 15, 1946 at the home of Barbara's parents on Portola Drive in San Francisco.
Alec was later employed with the city of San Francisco and Barbara was employed as a typist at Teamsters Local No. 856, retiring in 1985.
Services honoring Mrs. Corenevsky will be held in Deer Park at the Open Door Congregational Church at 1 p.m. on Friday, May 3, 2013, with the Rev. Daniel Berg officiating.

|Retain Vilas ATV resolution of '04
Dear Editor:
This letter is in regard to last week's headline concerning all-terrain vehicles (ATVs).One can only hope that the members of the Vilas County Board will not "Three Lakes" (ah, a new verb!) the good people of our county and railroad through decisions concerning ATVs behind their backs.
The 2004 resolution which prevents ATVs on Vilas County roads should not be altered, amended, embellished or breached without another county-wide referendum, including taxpayers who are currently out of state.

College football will soon have a playoff, even if it's just a two-team title game that uses the entire bowl season as its play-in round. It could still be a four-team playoff, which would be fine, or even an eight-team deal, as NCAA president Mark Emmert sort of predicts:
"The momentum seems to be -- and I'm just reading the tea leaves, pretty much like you -- the momentum seems to be toward an eight-team playoff," he said.
"We'll have to see how it works. I don't know whether it will really occur or not. I think there's a reasonable possibility it could."
What Emmert predicts isn't really all that critical, since his outfit has never had control of football's postseason, anyway. There's no guarantee it ever will, either, as commissioners aren't going to want to hand all that money over to the NCAA when their conferences can get the first cut of playoff spoils if they do their own thing. Still, that's what he thinks, in case you were wondering.

When asked to assist in decorating a home, clients are nearly uniform in their pleas: "Something's missing in my room."
Numerous trips by the homeowner to local home-decorating stores end up with multiple returns of items that don't work in their home or accessories piled in the corner of the room because they just don't seem to work with the furniture.
The problem at hand seems to be there are so many pretty things available in accessories that we get overwhelmed and purchase everything we like instead of focusing on one color to work with. Finding a useful pop of color can be easier than you think.
Working with neutral furniture isn't really difficult.
For the more formal home with neutral walls and accent tables, find a color that would enhance both. White, taupe and off-whites can be enhanced by blacks, blues, teals and golds, creating a richer, more elegant feel. A gold sofa sitting against a taupe wall requires a pop of color. Adding two new chairs to the grouping in spa-like blue fabrics, a pillow of the same colors to the center of the sofa and a painting with soft ocean colors above the sofa brings elegance and completes the space.
Another way to add color to a neutral-colored room is through the use of wall-hangings or tapestries. Wall hangings add interest to high ceilings, warm up a blank wall and are also a conversation piece. If the wall-hanging has a scene, it tells a story and promotes conversation in that particular space.
Less is more when shopping for accessories. Stay focused on finding the one color that will enhance your room's décor.

Debris flows are water-saturated masses of soil and fragmented rock that can rush down mountainsides, funnel into stream channels and form lobate deposits when they spill onto valley floors. These flows can be devastating to people and property. To understand the variables that contribute to debris flows, scientists use numerical models to test hypotheses about how flows begin and move, and compare the results to real-world examples and physical experiments.
A new approach to debris-flow modelling focuses on the impact of pore pressure within the flow and how it changes flow characteristics. Flow motion can be triggered in several ways, by gradually increasing pore pressure (simulating the effect of rainfall or snowmelt infiltration), gradually reducing the basal friction angle (simulating the effects of rock weathering or decay of roots that help bind soil), gradually changing the slope geometry (simulating erosion or human intervention), or rapidly changing the force of gravity (simulating earthquakes). What happens next depends on pore-pressure feedback that accompanies the expansion or contraction of the material as it moves. For loosely packed sediment, slope failure can lead to positive pore-pressure feedback, making partial liquefaction and runaway debris-flow motion almost inevitable. Alternatively, densely packed sediment with negative pore-pressure feedback may lead to slow or intermittent landslide motion, although it does not preclude debris-flow initiation.
This new depth-averaged numerical model allows feedbacks to develop as the simulation unfolds, to demonstrate that the evolving debris dilation rate, coupled to the evolution of pore-fluid pressure, plays a primary role in regulating debris-flow dynamics. The model helps to explain high mobility exhibited by many large debris flows. Read the two abstracts online: A depth-averaged debris-flow model that includes the effects of evolving dilatancy. I. Physical basis and A depth-averaged debris-flow model that includes the effects of evolving dilatancy. II. Numerical predictions and experimental tests.

Poured into a large 20 ounce mug (I love English pints). Dark root beer in color with some ruby tints around the edges. A very nice 2-inch beige pillowy head. Outstanding chocolatey aroma; strong and sweet like a chocolate cake right out of the oven; nice hazel nut overtones. It doesn't get any better - makes you want to keep on breathing it in. The taste follows the nose plus hints of vanilla and deep malty goodness. Mouthfeel - light carbonation, heavy and sticky. Top of the line for the style. Not much more to say except don't pass this one up!

Poured into an imperial nonic a deep chocolate brown with a creamy 1/2 finger tan colore head atop,a great looking pour.Milk chocolate really stood out to me in the nose along with roast and a hint of vanilla,like dessert in a glass.Mellow slightly fizzy feel to the beer,both balance each other out well.Chocolate and more chocolate on the palate but it doesn't hammer your taste buds,it's just a mellow lingering chocolatiness,mild roast and nuttiness with a shot of vanilla.I would make an ice cream float out of this,it's not even close to being cloying but the chocolate flavors are predominant,a great fricken milk stout here!

Pours a dark, deep brown with some ruby shining through the edges - not quite dark or bold enough to be called black. A light tan head forms, stays, and leave a little bit of wet looking lace on the way down. The aroma is full-force, 100% chocolate. BIG TIME chocolate - creamy and sweet, like chocolate milk or chocolate candies. Chocolate syrup, up and down. Some light roasty malt aromas, of course, but they don't stand a chance against the chocolate barricade. As it warms up, a slight nutty aroma pops its head in. But, like, chocolate covered nuts. This chocolate means serious fucking business.
The taste is basically everything you'd expect - sweet chocolate, through and through. Like a creamy and sweet chocolate milk, with some extra chocolate syrup added. The chocolate is overall pretty sweet and milky, but there is a bit of bitterness from the heavy roast in the malt. Perhaps a little bit is from the hops also? But I don't taste much hop flavor, if any at all. Maybe a bit of leafiness, but I'm probably just talking out of my ass. I don't taste much else but combinations of different chocolates. Thin-medium body, a little thinner than expected, and not as creamy as I'd hoped for, with high carbonation.
Chocolate milk beer, basically. Milk chocolate flavors dominate, with just a touch of bitter roast for balance. Good beer to introduce people to stouts who are intimidated. Drinks easy, and very flavorful for being only 5% ABV.

Typical SS mid sized bottle. No freshenss info.
Pours near black. Head is larger and luxorious. Stays and stays. Then a nice film, low sheeting and ample fine bits of lace and more sheeting.
Chocolate sniff. Yum
Smooth and super tasty. More milk chocolate all over this one.
Also notes of dark malts, vanilla, dark bread. A treat to enjoy this well crafted ale. They have been doing it since 1758! Dark beer lovers go get some and enjoy with a chocolate dessert or worked great with some spicy mexican tacos

Appearance: one inch head, dark brown in color, clear, moderate carbonation
Smell: chocolate both sweet milk and dark varieties
Taste: cocoa powder dominates with tastes of sweet milk chocolate, light amounts of dark chocolate and slight coconut
Mouthfeel: sweet start with a slightly bitter backbone, light bodied, moderate carbonation, bit chalky
Overall: I like this one a lot, but perhaps not as much as their organic fruit beers--almost like a good English chaocalte candy bar in liquid form. It takes on a great chalky--but pleasant cocoa quality to it. A lot more choclate taste than stout taste but definately one to get again--especially in the cooler months.

News: "Amy [Winehouse] Sang On Songs That We Never Put Out W/ Nas"
Wednesday, Nov 9, 2011 10:00PM
With the late Amy Winehouse's current Nas-featured "Like Smoke" currently circulating across the Internet, producer Salaam Remi explains how the duo's music never got out to the public until now.
According to Remi, there was always an initiative for Amy to link with Nas for multiple records.
"Amy sang on records that we never put out with Nas," Remi said in an interview. "As far as them now getting on the same record, that was a conversation in play for the last couple of years but that just didn't happen yet, and when I listened to that song, I was like, you know what? This makes sense, to actually make that happen as far as things that she wants to do that didn't happen yet...As far as myself, I feel like I'm repping her musically because that's what I know of her more than anyone else -- and then as far as where [Nas is] at, he put that energy back into [the song], because she repped for him. I mean, who writes songs for people, unless you really respect them?" (MTV)
Last week, Winehouse and Nas' "Like Smoke" filled the online blogs.
A bittersweet treat. My Hot 97 family got the scoop on this new Amy Winehouse x Nas song, "Like Smoke" which posthumously fulfills the late singer's wish to collaborate with her friend "Mr. Jones". It's a gorgeous retro-soul track, in typical Winehouse style and produced by Salaam Remi back in 2008. "Like Smoke" is the lead single off Lioness: Hidden Treasures, a collection of songs Amy recorded before her death this past July. "...like a polygamist with a twist, will I marry again, maybe, I guess....I be out in London, Camden, hunting for the answers why the God take away the homie. I can't say that I'm a firm believer that we all meet up in eternity. Just hope the big man, show me some courtesy...." (Miss Info TV)
The late singer's The Lioness: Hidden Treasures is expected to hit retail outlets in a month.
An album of material recorded by Amy Winehouse before she died, including new tracks as well as reworked versions of songs made popular by her and other artists, will be released on Dec. 5, an announcement on her Web site said Monday. The album, called "Lioness: Hidden Treasures," will be released by Island Records, which released her two previous albums, "Frank" and "Back to Black." (New York Times)
In October, Nas confirmed he was the subject of Winehouse's "Me & Mr. Jones" 2007 record.
Nas confirms to XXL that Amy Winehouse's classic song is about him... Rumor has it that Winehouse once had a crush on Nas, but interpretations on the song vary. "Mr. Destiny, 9 and 14," Winehouse sings, referencing Nas's daughter, Destiny, and the September 14 birth date she shared with the rapper. "Nobody stands between me and my man/'Cause it's me and Mr. Jones." Nas recalled to XXL about hearing about the Salaam Remi-produced song prior to its release. "I don't really remember if Salaam, who was really close to her, who introduced us, if he told me about it or not," Nas told XXL. "I don't remember right now. But, I heard a lot about it before I even heard the song." (XXL Mag)
The Lioness: Hidden Treasures is slated to drop Monday, December 5th.

Police in northern New Jersey are investigating the deaths of a pair of Fairleigh Dickinson University employees found shot inside their home.
The circumstances surrounding the deaths of 46-year-old Chester Andraka and his 43-year-old wife, Rosario, remain unclear.
Acting Morris County Prosecutor Fredric Knapp says Parsippany police went to the couple's home at 2 Medford Road shortly after 10 a.m. Monday, after a caller said Chester Andraka had failed to report for work.
Responding officers saw a body on a couch inside the family room and entered the locked residence. Rosario Andraka's body was found a short time later in the same room.
Knapp says a motive for the shootings remains under investigation.
While the pair was employed by FDU, Chester Andraka was also the associate director of security operations at Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corp.
The company issued a statement saying: "Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation is aware of the tragic death of Chester "Chet" Andraka and his wife, (Rosario) in Parsippany. We can also confirm that Chet Andraka was an employee of our company. He joined NPC in November 2012 and prior to that was a contractor for the company for two years. We are deeply saddened by this news and our thoughts are with the victims and families at this very tragic time. We are ensuring our employees have access to grief counseling services and are supporting and cooperating with the efforts of local authorities in any way we can."

Once one of the biggest movie houses in New York City, the Loews Astor Plaza at Broadway and 44th Street has been replaced by the Nokia Theatre Times Square after a $21 million renovation by AEG Live who will also operate the theatre.
The new 2,100 (depending on the event) capacity venue was designed by The Rockwell Group and opened on September 19 with a concert by Bon Jovi broadcast live around the world to launch the band's latest album, Have a Nice Day. Designed to house concerts as well as television specials, live recordings, web broadcasts, award shows, and cocktail parties, the Nokia Theatre Times Square is making an impressive Broadway debut, especially with its marquee — an 85'×10' Mitsubishi LED HD screen capable of displaying live or digital video and one of the biggest marquees on Broadway.
Designing the looks for these wildly different events that take place virtually every day — there were 26 different shows in October alone — is the Nokia's lighting director Jeff Carol, whose background includes rock tours as well as television, so he was well-suited to oversee the lighting at the multipurpose theatre. "It was billed as a TV studio/rock venue, so the position seemed tailor-made for me as it incorporated everything I liked," he says, adding that his position is a bit of a hybrid on Broadway since, as the lighting director, he is also the designer and the board op. "Typically, lighting directors stand around with a pad and pencil, and board ops push buttons. I design the look of the room each day and tailor it to the mood of the atmosphere that I feel fits the band coming in." He uses an Avolites Pearl console to create the various looks and has a Hog IPC on hand, as well.
With an intimate 40'×20'×30' stage, the theatre was designed to be user-friendly for not only the performers and the audience, but for the other designers who come into the venue. With a rig that has over 40 moving lights and over 80 conventionals, the venue is well-equipped for any act that comes in. However, Carol says that some acts who have a traveling LD like to morph their own designs and equipment into the theatre, which can make for a very tight squeeze. But it's all in a day's work for Carol. "We try to keep it easygoing and light and make everyone happy, which is not always easy, but that's the goal," he says.
The theatre features an in-house lighting rig comprised of equipment from Vari-Lite, ETC, Wybron, L&E, Avolites, Leviton, and Wholehog. Carol has become easily enamored with the 22 VARI*LITE VL2500™ Wash and the 16 VL2500 Spot fixtures due to their consistency and color mixing. He also has high praise for the six VL1000s™. "They're like a big Leko, because they have that warm, tungsten, incandescent-type light," he says. "They are a lifesaver. I can focus a special on anybody at the touch of a button. If there are any unknowns, I can just pick them up with the VL1000s. They are a great safety net because you never know. Doing the things that we do, everything is kind of on-the-fly. God forbid, if the shit ever hit the fan, I could cover the stage with one VL1000 if I had to! With six of them, I should never have anybody standing there in the dark."
The VL100s are also used for setting the scene in the auditorium while the audience is walking in and getting seated. "The VL1000s do nice even color washes on the walls, different architectural pieces, and the ceiling," Carol says. "I can even throw one in the middle of the pit if the pit's out of hand, so people don't get their teeth knocked out. With that many fixtures, the sky's the limit. I'm still discovering the different kinds of looks for the walk in. Boom, at the touch of a button, I have everything at my disposal on stage."
Carol adds that being the lighting director seems like a dream job, and he hopes to find out if he ever gets to sleep long enough to actually dream.

ATLANTA (AP) - The executive director of the Atlanta Track Club is stepping down to become the chief executive officer of the ASICS LA Marathon.
The track club said Friday that Tracey Russell plans to stay in Atlanta until after the AJC Peachtree Road Race on July 4.
The popular 10K race is organized by the club, which is considered 1 of the largest running organizations in the U.S. with more than 25 events a year.
Russell has worked at the Atlanta Track Club for the past six years. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/12RVuay ) a search committee will be formed to find her replacement.
Russell will have responsibility for the ASICS LA Marathon and will be tasked with increasing participation, viewership, charitable donations and sponsorships.

It isn't until an incident happens to a user that he or she starts to see the issues. When I went to the second day of my daughter's tournament, you bet I put on sunscreen. I had no desire to run the risk or make myself any worse. A similar lesson from a bad experience happened to my daughter's coach: His apartment was broken into on Friday night. A deadbolt was installed on Saturday, and he asked what he could do to protect his laptop in the future because his had been stolen.
The sad bit is that even though we can train our users six different ways to Sunday, unless they can internalize the experience of losing their device or having it compromised, it is very difficult to get them to follow form.
However, that human reality doesn't mean we can't force the issue by using mobile device management (MDM) tools or Exchange ActiveSync password policies. But doing so will cause more grumbling or even employees avoiding the use of personal devices in a corporate setting, reducing their work flexibility and availability.
It is a lot easier to win users over to your side of security when you make the issue about them. When you talk to your users, especially if you have a BYOD program, spend less time talking about the corporate data and more time focusing on their personal data. Do they want someone to be able to get into their bank account? How about if a thief could post on Facebook or Twitter as them? Have discussions about the kind of data they keep on their phone and teach them to protect that. You get to protect your corporate data too, but your users will care about their own stuff.
When you show users what's in it for them, you have a better shot that they will buy into the program. It's always easy to get a sunburn, but it's even easier to protect yourself against one if you know why you're doing it and when you need to.
