Julia Crabtree and William Evans: Antonio Bay
- 7 June — 14 September 2014 *on now
Following six months as the Nina Stewart Artists-in-Residence in the SLG's Outset Artists' Flat, Julia Crabtree and William Evans present an unfurling installation across the first floor galleries, which continues their examination of the relationship between the body and the screen. Their work references the high artifice of B-movies and the spatial logic of cartoon physics as part of an ongoing investigation into the imagery of our collective conscious. As part of this process they subject forms and figures to varying stages of virtual and material transformation, here resulting in theatrical atmospheric smoke being flattened onto carpet and horizon lines being rendered as abstract sculptures.
Julia Crabtree and William Evans are the third recipients of the Nina Stewart Artist Residency. Crabtree and Evans completed their BAs in Fine Arts at Central Saint Martin's in 2007. In September 2013 Crabtree finished her MA and Evans his MFA at the Slade School of Fine Art. They recently had a solo exhibition, Hyper Bole, at Legion TV, London (2014).
Last Seen Entering the Biltmore
- 26 June — 14 September 2014 *on now
Last Seen Entering the Biltmore is a group exhibition which brings together new commissions and existing works that summon ideas of artifice reminiscent of stage sets and scenographic tools. Instead of conjuring illusionary environments, these works knowingly disclose a perspective from the "backstage".
Backstage, in this context, refers to a position that is witness to artistic transformation, experimentation and subversion; a space off-stage or screen where the demands of the centre stage do not apply. Last Seen Entering the Biltmore considers experiences mediated through thresholds such as the TV monitor, cinema screen, theatre curtain, and stage, as well as sets and props - objects suspended between rehearsal and ritual, mimicry and fiction.
Featuring a variety of media including painting, sculpture, film and installation, the exhibited works are less concerned with "the theatre" per se than with "the art of the theatre". This distinction was made by the British playwright Howard Barker and on this occasion is used in reference to instances when theatre is dragged from its confines and explored through another art form.
Play Local Topics: Jess Thom
- 3 September 2014 7-9pm *on now
A monthly forum for anyone interested in play, art, socially engaged practice and everything in between.
Each month a guest speaker presents a topic for discussion, focusing on themes relating to the Play Local project. A crossover between training, a discussion group and a social gathering; this is an opportunity to meet other local people and share ideas amongst the group. Refreshments are provided.
In September, Jess Thom leads the session. She is committed to increasing opportunities for disabled and non-disabled people to share in unusual creative play experiences and will use this as the starting point for her talk.
Jess Thom is an artist, writer, playworker and part time superhero based in London. She graduated from The Royal College of Art in 2005 and has worked as an artist educator and workshop facilitator for The Tate, The South London Gallery and The Chisenhale. Jess Thom is the Project Coordinator at Oasis Children's Venture, a well-established play organisation in Stockwell. Thom has extensive experience within the adventure play sector with a particular focus on inclusive play.
In 2006 Thom was diagnosed with Tourettes Syndrome, a neurological condition that causes involuntary movements and noises called tics. In 2010 she turned her 'problem' into her power when she co-founded Touretteshero, an organisation that celebrates the humour and creativity of Tourettes and shares it with as wide an audience as possible. Touretteshero's mission is to reclaim the most frequently misunderstood condition on the planet by challenging people to think differently about it, and react creatively to it. In 2013 Thom gave a TEDx talk about Touretteshero at the Royal Albert Hall.
Free to attend and open to anyone aged 16 or over. Childcare is available on request.

A CAMPBELLS Creek man has been charged with drug trafficking, after police found amphetamines at his house.
Cameron Retallick, 29, was charged following a search warrant at his property on Friday.
Constable Rod Davis said twice the traffickable amount of amphetamine was located at the address along with cash and two tasers, which are prohibited weapons in Victoria.
"The owner of the property was arrested for drug trafficking offences and charged by members of the Central Victoria Response Unit," he said.
"Mr Retallick was bailed to the Castlemaine Magistrates Court to appear on May 12."
Any information regarding drug activity in your area should be forwarded to Crime Stoppers or Bendigo Police.

Re "Defense industry watching Warren" (Page A1, Nov. 12): So, the Massachusetts Defense Technology Initiative believes that Senator-elect Elizabeth Warren "has an obligation" to the defense industry? The outcome of the election suggests otherwise.
Warren's victory over Senator Scott Brown, despite the contribution of 30 times more money to the Brown campaign from defense firms, should send a strong message. The people have spoken. We need to cut defense outlays regardless of short-term economic ramifications.

Lynchburg - The Virginia women visited the Vines Center for the first time in 11 years Tuesday night and narrowly escaped with a 61-60 win.
Ataira Franklin hit a free throw with 11 seconds left. Liberty had the ball with a chance to win, but the Flames failed to get a shot off before the horn sounded and Virginia wins by a single point.
The Lady Flames had fought back from a nine-point deficit during the final five minutes to knot the game at 60-60 on a Catherine Kearney foul shot with 38 seconds left. The Flames drop to 0-and-3 to start the season for the first time in 20 years.
Franklin, a preseason All-ACC selection, scored all 12 of her points during the second half to help Virginia win its third straight contest and improve to 3-1.
Liberty hurt itself with 30 turnovers for the game. Liberty had six 3's for the game, but shot under 38 percent overall for the night.
Sanders led three Lady Flames in double figures with a career-high 16 points, highlighted by four triples. Ashley Rininger finished with her second double-double in a row, consisting of 10 points and 12 rebounds. Fellow sophomore Sadalia Ellis made it three straight games in double digits, tallying 11 points.
For Virginia, Franklin was joined in double figures by post players Sydney Umeri (career-high 12 points) and Sarah Imovbioh (10 points and a game-high 13 rebounds).
Liberty will now take to the road for a four-game, eight-day road trip, beginning at Saint Joseph's, Saturday afternoon.

The truth is that the image alone only tells half the story. To fully understand and appreciate any photograph, you must know something about the person standing behind the camera.
I was recently made aware of a phenomenal collection of historical photographs at the Jasper Public Library. These black and white scenes of Walker County in the 1930s, '40s and '50s are much loved and have been widely circulated.
They have been published in books and magazines, hung in public buildings and developed into postcards and political advertisements.
However, the man who made this historical record possible — Luis Rushing — has never received the recognition he deserves.
With help from my friends at the library, I intend to change that.
I hope to share Mr. Rushing's story (and his wonderful photographs, of course) in a variety of ways in the coming months.
Other than our ongoing coverage of tornado recovery, I haven't felt this passionate about a project since "Journey Stories" in 2011. As then, I am driven by not only my love of local history but also a desire to give credit where it is long overdue.
I regret that Mr. Rushing is no longer alive to accept praise for his work.
I would have so many questions for him:
How did you get close enough to FDR to photograph him in the doorway of the church at Speaker Bankhead's funeral?
What did you and Ernie Pyle talk about when he stopped in Jasper to get his car serviced?
Was there ever a shot that got away or one that you refused to sell because it was priceless?
Did you question your decision to capture Walker County in such a positive light for decades when you knew of its dark side as well?
I can only guess what Mr. Rushing's answers would have been. I am just thankful that he left us with hundreds of photographic pieces of himself to remember him by.
It is also important to note that Mr. Rushing's name and his body of work would have been lost to history if not for the local library system.
Mr. Rushing taught himself photography by devouring library books as a young man.
Toward the end of his life, he donated some of his most precious negatives to the Jasper library and its longtime director, Colleen Miller, in hopes that they would be preserved for future generations.
Miller's successor, Sandra Underwood, is now leading the effort to make Mr. Rushing's stunning images available online.
Mrs. Underwood and her son, Stephen, are also responsible for the bulk of the research that I will be using in my articles on Mr. Rushing.
As technology advances, there is a tendency to view libraries as outdated and useful only for free Internet access.
I realize now more than ever the important role that libraries play in our communities.
Books, photographs and newspaper stories may be applauded today and forgotten tomorrow. Only because of libraries is there the opportunity for them to be appreciated for years to come.

Chicago, IL -- The 47th
Chicago International Film Festival will celebrate the vibrant and innovative
work coming from
Cinema of the Americas highlights include the Chicago Premiere of Gerardo Naranjo's critically acclaimed Miss Bala (Mexico's Foreign-Language Oscar® submission); the Cuban zombie comedy Juan of the Dead; past Chicago International Film Festival Gold Hugo recipient Karim Aïnouz's latest film, The Silver Cliff; and The Student, Argentinean scriptwriter Santiago Mitre's feature directorial debut. Most screenings will feature special appearances by the filmmakers.
The Festival will
also present three films from
The Clown
Fat, Bald, Short Man Colombia (Director: Carlos Osuna)-- With nothing going in
the looks department, notary Antonio is something of a Colombian George
Costanza: teased by his colleagues, unlucky with the ladies, and the doormat of
all who wish to tread, most notably his gambling-addicted brother. But
Antonio's luck seems set to take a turn for the better when he gets involved
with a cultish self-help group and an equally unattractive boss takes over the
office. A distinctive animation style and an undeniably heart-warming story
make Fat, Bald, Short Man a surefire
Juan Of The Dead Cuba (Director: Alejandro Brugues)-- Juan is a lovable loser
content to loaf around the streets of Havana wisecracking, womanizing, and
wiling away the days with a motley crew of fellow drifters. But when what seems
at first to be dissident rumblings in the city turns into a full-on
flesh-eating zombie onslaught, Juan and his gang go into business as "Juan of
the Dead"-- a crack team of slayers specializing in the undead. This wild romp
through the streets of the Cuban capital is a perfectly pitched blend of horror
and laughs.
The Kid Who Lies Venezuela (Director: Marité Ugás)-- In this touching mix of
road movie and coming-of-age story, a 13-year-old boy wanders the roads of
Venezuela alone in search of the mother he never knew. As he makes his way amid
the wreckage left behind by mudslides that hit a coastal town 10 years ago, the
boy shares stories of the tragedy with the people he meets, as he tries to come
to terms with what happened to his family.
Machete Language
Bala Mexico (Director:
Gerardo Naranjo)-- Equal doses of unrelenting action, beauty queen fantasy and
social disquiet rule this detached tale of drug trafficking in Baja California,
inspired by a true story. On her way to compete in her first beauty pageant,
Laura is swept up in a gangland slaying and suddenly finds herself forced to
work as a mule in order to save her own life.
Southwest Brazil (Director:
Eduardo Nunes)-- In a small fishing village in
The Student
Ticket To Paradise
Valley Of The Forgotten Brazil (Director: Maria Raduan)-- In a secluded area of
Brazil's Mato Grosso region, an impossible land dispute rages between Indians
evicted from their homeland, squatters, land-grabbers, the Landless Workers
Movement, and the ranchers who own property. With no resolution in sight and
violence threatening to erupt at any moment, the film looks closely at each
group's perspective, offering a meditation on the concept of private property
across social and cultural boundaries.
Amador (Director: Fernando León de Aranoa)-- Marcela's pregnancy
couldn't have come at a worse time. A Latin American immigrant living in the outskirts
Chico & Rita (Directors:
Tono Errando, Javier Mariscal and Fernando Trueba)-- Amidst the Afro-Cuban
rhythms of
The Double Steps (Director: Isaki Lacuesta)-- Prepare to be taken over by
this delightfully enigmatic storyline that traverses centuries, continents and
cultures. The "double steps" in question refers to advice left by French artist
François Augiéras, who claimed the best way to escape one's enemies is to walk
backwards over your own footprints. Using one of Augiéras' lost works as the
catalyst for the story, filmmaker Isaki Lacuesta and painter Miquel Barceló
weave together the structure and iconography
of the road movie with African griot storytelling. North American Premiere.
All events,
except Opening Night, are at the AMC River East 21,
Led by Presenting Partner, Columbia College Chicago, the 47th Chicago International Film Festival's sponsors include: Premiere Partners-- American Airlines, Lincoln; Producing Partners-- AMC Theaters, DePaul University's School of Cinema and Interactive Media, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences; Major Partners-- Allstate, Intersites; Supporting Partners--Applitite, Barefoot Wine & Bubbly, Brugal Rum, Kodak, Second City Computers, WBBM, and the Festival's Headquarters Hotel, JW Marriott Chicago.

Credits: 16, graded A-F, grades count in Carlson School GPA
The Minnesota Studies in International Development (MSID) program is offered in cooperation with the Learning Abroad Center
Kenya's geographic and cultural diversity make it a microcosm of the African continent. It includes hot coastal plains, vast plateaus, Africa's largest lake and highest mountain and hundreds of miles of the great Rift Valley. Home to more than 45 tribes, significant European and South Asian minorities and a population of 28 million speaking dozens of languages, Kenya shares with its neighbors the challenges of forging a multi-ethnic, post-colonial nation. Most Kenyans are farmers or herders, yet the capital of Nairobi is one of the most cosmopolitan cities in East Africa and the base for many international and Kenyan organizations promoting development and social change.
Learning from experience is the core of Minnesota Studies in International Development (MSID). The program puts you in direct contact with the social and economic realities of actual communities and of people working within them to address complex problems. Through classes, field trips, internships and research, MSID strives to establish a continual dialogue linking experience with theory and critical analysis.
To be eligible for this education abroad program, you must be:
The semester program consists of four classes and students engage in an internship or research project. All classes are with program participants and are taught by local faculty. Students have the opportunity to discuss the complex nature of development as realized in your MSID country. This program is for you if you are interested in completing an internship in small business development, entrepreneurship, or alternative economies in Kenya.Â
The four courses are:
Information on academic year curriculum and more detailed semester academic information can be found on the Learning Abroad Center's website: http://www.umabroad.umn.edu/programs/africa/msid-kenya/academics.php
A wide range of placement possibilities are available through the MSID program. MSID provides background in:
MSID facilitates a placement in direct contact with the people of the host society, both those who are managing social change through development efforts, and those for whom these efforts are designed. Ideally, the internship placement and living experience help you better understand the complexity of social change and development in the global context.
MSID internships and research projects have the following common elements:
Learn more about the internships on the Learning Abroad Center's website: http://www.umabroad.umn.edu/programs/africa/msid-kenya/academics.php
All courses are taught in English. In addition, all students are required to take a beginner or intermediate course in Swahili.Â
Homestays are an integral component of the MSID learning experience. You will live and share most meals with at least one family, and possibly with two different families, one during the classroom phase in Nairobi and a second in a different part of the country during the remainder of the program.
The most up to date budget estimates can be found on the Learning Abroad Center website:
Most financial aid may be applied to the cost of study abroad. In addition, all Carlson School students participating on Learning Abroad Center programs may apply for merit and need-based scholarships through CGI.
Carlson students accepted into an MSID program will be invited to apply for the Jeanne Voigt Foundation Scholarship for Study Abroad in Emerging Economies. The scholarship funds support the incremental costs of the study abroad experience, including but not limited to travel and living expenses. Scholarship recipients will be invited to meet the benefactor after they return from their experience abroad. Contact Jennie Meinz at email@example.com if you have questions about this scholarship.
Additional scholarships may be available through the Learning Abroad Center. You can learn more at: http://www.umabroad.umn.edu/students/finances.php
You will need to apply online through the Learning Abroad Center for this program. You can find application information and instructions on their website at:

Pudsey parties at T4 On The Beach
3:31pm Monday 2nd July 2012 in Entertainment News © Press Association 2014
Britain's Got Talent winners Ashleigh and Pudsey were among the stars partying backstage at T4 On The Beach 2012.
Pampered pooch Pudsey had his own special pram to be pushed around in as he and 17-year-old co-star Ashleigh enjoyed the freebies and attention in the VIP area.
Rita Ora was seen splashing herself with Chanel perfume before she went on stage, and declared she is keen to collaborate with Professor Green.
But Pro Green was too busy being all loved up with Made In Chelsea girlfriend Millie Mackintosh to network.
Millie watched his whole set from the back of the stage and when he finished he went straight up to her and gave her a big kiss, putting his arm round her. But the rapper found time to stop and have his picture taken with a group of little girls, before his security hurried him on.
Meanwhile, X Factor winners Little Mix were easily pleased, getting excited as they tucked into the free Sodastreams.
The Voice contestant Tyler James may have gained an army of fans, but he insisted he has no plans to flash any flesh in his music video, unless he "goes down the gym every day for three months before hand".
Made In Chelsea's Cheska Hull was seen bonding with TOWIE's Bobby Cole Norris, and insisted there is no rivalry between them and that they even watch each other's shows.

Falque leads Spurs to U21 win over Saints (From Daily Echo)

Ex-Saints loanee Yago Falque scores twice as Spurs win U21 clash 4-0
10:00am Tuesday 13th November 2012 in Saints News
Former St Mary's loanee Yago Falque scored twice as table-topping Spurs beat Saints at White Hart Lane in the Under-21 Premier League.
Early chances fell to visiting striker Sam Hoskins in the opening 15 minutes, but the rapid forward couldn't find the net.
Ben Reeves' free-kick on 21 minutes was dealt with well by the Tottenham defence, before a quick counter-attack saw Dean Parrett slot a perfectly weighted ball into Falque, who finished nicely past Chris Jones in goal.
Just three minutes later, the home side found themselves two-up. The impressive Tom Carroll crossed a well-flighted ball into the box, which Jonathan Obika headed past Jones.
It looked set to be an uphill task for Saints, but the visitors managed to look more comfortable on the ball, with skipper Reeves particularly impressive in possession.
However, the hosts added to their tally a minute into first-half stoppage time, as Obika turned provider for Falque, with the 22-year-old bending a fantastic curling shot that hit the top of the far post before nestling into the net.
With a three-goal cushion, Spurs were happy to keep possession after the interval as Saints began to tire.
Chances were few and far between in the second period, but it was the visitors who had the first after 63 minutes. Joe Curtis stole the ball from a Spurs defender before showing neat footwork to get a shot off, but Lawrence Vigouroux did well to save the effort.
Reeves then played Sam Hoskins through on goal, but his shot was saved by the leg of Vigouroux.
The three-goal cushion seemed a little flattering for the hosts considering chances were being consistently produced by the men in red.
With just over ten minutes remaining Curtis played an accurate ball out wide to the pacey Jake Sinclair, who returned the pass with a deep cross to the feet of Curtis, but his resulting shot was palmed wide for a corner.
Spurs then added insult to injury with a fourth, saving the best until last. Substitute Souleymane Coulibaly picked up the ball on the left-hand side and struck an ambitious shot which nestled into the top right corner.
Reeves nearly grabbed a consolation when he wormed his way through a number of Spurs defenders before hitting a right-footed shot that looked to be going into the top corner, but Vigouroux was at full stretch to keep his clean sheet.
Tottenham Hotspur: Lawrence Vigouroux, Ryan Fredericks, Kevin Stewart, Massimo Luongo (C), Grant Hall, Tom Carroll, Yago Falque, Ryan Mason, Jonathan Obika, Dean Parrett, Cristian Ceballos.
Saints: Chris Jones, Danny Butterfield, Matt Targett, Joe Curtis, Bevis Mugabe, Jordan Turnball, Jake Sinclair, Corby Moore, Sam Hoskins, Ben Reeves (C), Lloyd Isgrove.

I couldn't understand the FALQUE loan deal last season.He played only one half for the first team,a cup game if my memory serves me well and after that it was only reserve team football for the rest of his Saints career.Why take a player on loan if you aren't going to play him.
Talking of players on loan what the heck has happened to AARON MARTIN at Palace.
The revenge of the U21 specialist! I did not wonder why we did not play him for the seniors after seeing his debut, but fair play, yesterday he sure showed our Reserves what they are missing out on!

Frostex water pipe freeze protection system prevents
above ground exposed water pipes from freezing. The electric Frostex heat
trace cable is a 3 watt per foot heat tape, that uses the #9800 Plug Kit
and the #9610 application tape.
Frostex heat trace cable is ideal
for shorter runs of less than 50'
for water pipe freeze protection.
120V Electronic Temperature Control Electronic Temperature Control unit has a temperature differential range of 1 Degree F to 30 Degrees F. Unit can control temperatures from -30F to 220F, however you will not need the range capabilities of this control for use with heat tape for on your roof or on water pipes
Thermo Cube is a device which plugs into a standard GFI protected 120V AC outlet to automatically control turning power on and off for heat tape or stock tank heaters. By plugging the device into the Thermo Cube, when the air temperature reaches 35 degrees F, the Thermo Cube will turn on the power. When the Air temperature gets up to 45 degrees F, the power will turn off. This makes your heat tape more efficient to operate, since you are not having to run the power all the time. According to the manufacturer, you can use the Thermo Cube to control heat tape or stock tank heaters that are rated up to 1800 watts maximum or 15 amps total on 120V GFI protected circuits.
TC3 is 3-1/4" wide and 1-3/8" high and 1" thick, and has place for two 3 prong plugs to plug into it.
$ 23.00
FROSTEX is a name you have come to trust for keeping exposed water lines
from freezing. Frostex heat tapes are available in lengths up to 50' of heat
tape. You will need to know the type of pipe you will use the Frostex heat
tape on, whether plastic of metal, the diameter of the pipe, as well as the
lowest expected air temperature, and the number of valves and spigots.
Example would be 1" PVC pipe 23' long with one ball valve protecting for -20
degree F would require 23' x 2 = 46' + 1' for the valve area and 1' for the
plug in needed.
Measure the diameter of the pipe in inches, and determine the lowest air temperature you will protect against. Under the pipe type, plastic or metal, find the size of pipe you are protecting, then go across the chart to the lowest temperature you are protecting against.

When the charity event that provided the impetus for their annual get-together fell through, members of the Oneonta High School class of 1975 took matters into their own hands, or actually onto their own feet.
For several years, the classmates had participated in the River Ride sponsored by Opportunities For Otsego. In May, however, OFO decided not to sponsor the event saying that it had not worked out as a successful fundraiser.
"Of course, we were disappointed," said Steve Talevi, an OHS graduate who now lives in Roanoke, Va., "but we decided to conduct our own '2013 FUNdraiser Leisure Ride' and to raise some money for OFO through that event."
On Saturday, June 1, six members of the Class of 1975 cycled from Portlandville to Council Rock at the southern tip of Otsego Lake in Cooperstown and back, a ride of about 26 miles. For their efforts, the group was able to present OFO with a check for $1,775; late donations pushed the total to more than $1,800.
"The dedication, commitment and focus of the group is best and most clearly demonstrated by the fact that the entire group cycled by Ommegang Brewery not once, but twice, without stopping for a single beer," joked Talevi.
"The members of the OHS Class of 1975, while a number of years removed from their high school graduation and now scattered all over the country, are pleased to 'put something back' into a community which helped shape them in their formative years," he said.
Located in Oneonta, OFO provides programs and services for people in the country, "to encourage economic stability, social justice and the promotion of healthy lives and families."

We flew in on through Fort Lauderdale airport. We stayed at the Rodeway Inn. That is a low cost hotel and it is like they say--you get what you pay for. Shabby rundown hotel. It was clean (more or less) and the breakfast bar was OK. We used SAS shuttle service to the port. Great service and much cheaper than the other services.
I had forgot to pack one item. The shuttle driver pointed out the shopping mall across from the port. Since we were early we left our bags with the porters, hopped in a cab and went shopping for an hour. Then we took a cab back to the port.
Once we actually started through the check in, it was very smooth. We had done the on line check in and had our forms printed out and in hand. That saved a lot of time. The only hold up is that we got put in line behind a large family that had not done the on line check in and did not have passports for everyone. It was only a minor delay and then we sailed right through.
We went to our room and were pleased with it. We had expected a very tiny room and though it was small, it was so well layed out that we fit all our things in easily. The bed was made up as a queen size and we called room service and asked for it to be made up as two twins. We took all the food and water bottles from the "mini bar" tray on the desk and set it up on top of the desk shelf out of the way. I had brought extra hangers and that was good. The bathroom is very tiny, but served our needs well. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We had brought earplugs as the various cruise packing list recommendations suggested. We never needed them. There was some engine noise and vibrations, but it never bothered us.
We never had time to do all the things that were available on the ship. We went to the shows each night, but that was about all we got to. Our dining time was 9:00 and there was a long line of people changing dining times when we came on board. So we just left it at that. We only went to the main dining room two times. The food was great and the service was great. My daughter ordered a bottle of wine to have with her meals. It was a very low quality wine, but not bad enough to ruin the meals.
We ate most of our meals in the Windjammer buffet. They serve the same menu as the main dining room, plus lots of extra stuff. They have selections for all sorts of dietary and cultural preferences, it is much less of a hassle, and you can go whenever you like. I would recommend the Windjammer for anyone who wants to just fit in meals around a busy schedule and for anyone with special special diet limitations. It would also be a good choice for families with little kids who might not like the offerings on the menus in the main dining room, or who get restless with a long drawn out meal.
As for the shows--they were all excellent. We went to all the shows and it is hard to say which was the best show. I guess the musical review show on the last night was my favorite for the energy and enthusiasm of the performers.
A few comments on the ports we went to: First was Nassau. We didn't do any of the tours or excursions because of cost and because I wanted to shop. Big mistake. The shops are crowded and full of cheap junk. The straw market was worse than the reviews make it out. Just a bunch of tiny pitiful booths overflowing with gaudy trinkets in a stifling shed building. The people who run the booths are aggressive in trying to sell there goods. Aggressive is really too mild a term. We did have fun and just tried to keep laughing and keep in a good mood. We found a Starbucks shop right by the pier. We paid $3.00 for an hour of Internet. That was much better than the price on the ship.
Coco cay: this was a great stop on the cruise. We rented a paddle boat and enjoyed riding that around. My daughter jumped off the boat to swim out to rescue her hat that flew away. Oops! We got a mild reprimand for that. Don't think about jumping off your boat. Strictly against the rules. After that we found loung chairs in the shade and relaxed with tall, cool "Coco Loco" drinks. We went back early because I was getting a bit heat sick.
Key West: this was my favorite port. We took a tour trolley around the island. Hint: take the grey trolley--it is much cheaper and goes to all the important historic stops on the island. We found another Starbucks and enjoyed free Internet. We ate pie at the Key Lime Pie Factory and wonderful doughnuts at a shop called Glazed. We did lots more shopping. Big Hint: just off the pier you will find several $5 shops. They are great shops selling everything for five bucks. They had all the same T-shirts and dresses that we saw at Nassau, only cheaper and no high pressure sales tactics. We also went to a great toy shop called The Toy Factory and a sea shell shop called The Shell Warehouse.
The last morning of the cruise went very smoothly. We choose to handle our own luggage and that seems to have been a wise choice. We sailed right through Customs and out to the shuttle pick up area. I almost forgot to go pick up a toy pirate sword that I had bought. Security had taken it and was holding it at the door where you go in when newly arriving for a cruise.

PEORIA, Ill. -- Congresswoman Cheri Bustos, (D) 17th District, is working with local leaders on ways to improve the economy.
Bustos was in Peoria on Tuesday for the second of three regional economic meetings with business leaders and educators.
She said it is important to bring the brightest minds together to seek out ideas on how to bring more jobs to this region.
"We have sitting around the table people from education, small business, big business, manufacturing, healthcare, finance, economic, development at the state level, at the local level," said Rep. Bustos. "When you get the right people talking about the same thing what you're going to do is you're going to find common denominators."
Bustos has another economic roundtable scheduled for the Quad Cities.
She said she plans to hold an economic summit in the fall to discuss ways to implement the job growth ideas.

Having reached a breaking point in dealing with my husband's sleep apena, I've tried a couple of things that normally I wouldn't have. I thought I'd share my results and maybe they would help others, or perhaps you can give me some more feedback.
I normally go to a chiropractor, and my new chiro also does acupuncture. I have been having such stress issues to the point that my tense muscles are pulling my back/neck out and my legs are cramping because I hold all my stress there. She suggested that I do an acupuncture treatment for stress which I did. I can't see I noticed any difference, but i found that through the following days and weeks that I made decisions easier and was able to follow through with tasks better. I made an appt to see a marraige counselor, and I have been to one appt. He understands sleep apena and the stress it causes on marraiges!!! Yeah!!!! Especially the sex part. Feeling very accomplishmented and embolden, I have started talking to my husband more about our sex issues. Next week we go to the counselor together. One of the things that the therapist wants to work with me on is dealing with the panic I have about my husband not breathing. I didn't realize that my unspoken fears are making things worse!
I'm also going to make another acupunture appt next month and I hope that I'll be able to continue with my own improvements, so my husband can concentrate on his health. If I can control/remove my stress it can only be better for the whole family. I strongly encourage spouses to seek a therapist that is knowledgeable in the effects of sleep apena on a marraige. I think this was a really good move!

The dogs want to know where their shirts are by Rex's Place - about 1 year ago
"I own a dog daycare and needless to say, clothes can get a little dirty by the end of the day. At the end of the week...even worse. The staff decided they needed a "uniform" so one of our clients designed these shirts for us. We now have them in three different colors and best of all - now the clients want them too. It will be good marketing don't you think?"

Media of Japan
|Part of a series on the
|Culture of Japan
Music and performing arts
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2010)
The communications media of Japan include numerous television and radio networks as well as newspapers and magazines in Japan. For the most part, television networks were established based on the capital contribution from existing radio networks at that time. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the capital relationship between the media (such as the relationship between newspaper, radio and TV networks).
For the most part, variety shows, serial dramas, and news constitute a large percentage of Japanese evening shows. Western movies are also shown, many with a subchannel for English.
There are all-English television channels on cable and satellite (with Japanese subtitles).

TV networks[edit]
There are 6 nationwide television networks, as follows:
- NHK (日本放送協会 Nippon Hōsō Kyōkai). NHK is a Japanese public service broadcaster. The company is financed through "viewer fees," similar to the licence fee system used in the UK to fund the BBC. NHK deliberately maintains neutral reportings as a public broadcast station, even refuse to mention commodity brand names.[1] NHK has 2 terrestrial TV channels, unlike the other TV networks (in the Tokyo region—channel 1 ("Sōgō" (General)) and channel 3 ("Kyoiku" (Education)).
- Nippon Television Network System (NNS)/Nippon News Network (NNN) headed by Nippon Television (日本テレビ放送網/日テレ Nihon-Terebi/Nittere; NTV). In the Tokyo region, channel 4. Affiliated with the Yomiuri Shimbun.

Regional papers[edit]
The Tokyo Shimbun (東京新聞) in Kanto and Chunichi Shimbun (中日新聞) in Chūbu are both owned by the Chunichi company and have a cumulative circulation that places them fourth nationally. Other nationally-known regional papers include Nishinippon Shimbun (西日本新聞) in Kyushu, Hokkaido Shimbun (北海道新聞) in Hokkaido, Kahoku Shimpo (河北新報) in Tohoku.
Specialty papers[edit]
Among niche newspapers are publications like the widely circulated Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun (The Business and Technology Daily News); the new religious movement Sōka Gakkai's daily Seikyo Shimbun (聖教新聞); and Shimbun Akahata (しんぶん赤旗), the daily organ of the Japanese Communist Party. Other niches include papers devoted entirely to predicting the results of horse races. One of the best-known papers in the genre is Keiba Book (競馬ブック). Shukan Go (週刊碁) is a weekly newspaper that covers the results of professional Go tournaments and contains hints on go strategy.
As with other countries, surveys tend to show that the number of newspaper subscribers is declining, a trend which is expected to continue.
Bias in Japanese newspapers[edit]
There are increasing concerns about media bias in Japanese newspapers, and the mainstream mass media in general. This can be best exemplified by a large demonstration in Tokyo on 5 November 2010.[2] "Mass Media" (Masu-komi or マスコミ in Japanese) are often colloquially referred to as "Mass garbage" (Masu-gomi or マスゴミ)[3] and the roles of supposedly 'neutral' mainstream journalists have been called into question, especially in their coverage of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant crisis following the earthquake and tsunami disaster on 11 March 2011.[3] While media bias is nothing new, and can be seen elsewhere in the world, Japanese media often deliberately conceal their bias and boast about their supposed 'political neutrality.[4] Media bias largely stems from structural issues that also plague much of other aspects of politics and economy in contemporary Japan. Kazuo Hizumi, a journalist turned lawyer, details these structural problems in his book, "Masukomi wa naze masugomi to yobareru no ka?" (Why is mass communication media called mass garbage?), which argues that a complex network of institutions, such as elite bureaucrats, judiciary, education system, law enforcement, and large established corporations, all of whom stand to gain from maintaining the status quo, shapes the mass media and communication in a way that controls Japanese politics and discourage critical thinking in Japanese people.[5]
Key stations: television and radio[edit]
In Japan, there are five broadcasting stations which take the lead in the network of commercial broadcasting. The five stations are Nippon Television, Tokyo Broadcasting System, Fuji Television, TV Asahi, and TV Tokyo. Their head offices are in Tokyo, and they are called zaikyō kī kyoku (在京キー局, Key stations in Tokyo) or kī kyoku (キー局, Key stations).
The key stations make news shows and entertainment programs, and wholesale them to local broadcasting stations through the networks. Although local broadcasting stations also manufacture programs, the usage of the key stations is very large, and 55.7% of the TV program total sales in the 2002 fiscal year (April 2002 to March 2003) were sold by the key stations. Furthermore, the networks are strongly connected with newspaper publishing companies, and they influence the media very strongly. For this reason, they are often criticized.
In addition, there is CS broadcasting and Internet distribution by the subsidiaries of the key stations. The definition of key station has changed a little in recent years.
In Japan, every broadcasting company (except NHK and Radio Nikkei) which performs terrestrial television broadcasts has an appointed broadcast region. In Article 2 of the Japanese Broadcasting Law (放送法), the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications defines the fixed zone where the broadcast of the same program for every classification of broadcast is simultaneously receivable. So, the broadcasting company constructs a network with other regions, and with this network establishes the exchange of news or programs. The broadcasting companies which send out many programs to these networks are called key stations.
Presently the broadcasting stations located in Tokyo send out the programs for the whole country. However, although TOKYO MX is in the Tokyo region, it is only an Tokyo region UHF independent station.
Broadcasting stations in Nagoya and other areas are older than those in Tokyo. However, in order to meet the large costs of making programs key stations were established in Tokyo to sell programs nationwide. Some local stations have a higher profit ratio since they can merely buy programs from the networks.
Sub-key stations[edit]
Since the broadcasting stations which assign the head offices in Kansai region (especially in Osaka) have a program supply frame at prime time etc. and sent out many programs subsequently to kī kyoku, they are called jun kī kyoku (準キー局,sub-key stations).
List of key stations[edit]
|This section requires expansion. (June 2008)

One unique feature that we especially enjoyed was the separate vegetarian menu featuring several vegan options. We had to order for the following nights dinner, however, but at least it was available. Haven't seen this on other lines we've sailed.
One comment about this special menu: it is NOT posted on the dining room bulletin board as the regular menu is, and we discovered this menu only by chatting with a fellow passenger. The cruise line does NOT advertise this vegetarian menu, nor were we informed about it by the dining room staff until we asked about it. Itr seems very odd that Holland America would go to the trouble of preparing this special menu then keep it a secret. The food was delicious by the way. So if you sail with them make a point of asking about the vegetarian menu if this is a concern of yours.
Generally we enjoyed the ship and the cruise was great.

A quick 2-game series against the New York Mets will kick off Monday night in Atlanta. The 2 teams are currently going in opposite directions; the Braves have won 5 out of their last 6 and are 6-4 in the past 10 games. Compare this to the Mets who have lost 5 in a row and 7 out of 10 and it's no wonder why the Mets have fallen from the top to the bottom of the NL East.
The Mets haven't received much from their starting pitchers. Their rotation is anchored by Johan Santana and Mike Pelfrey, who have both been solid this year. Their rotation is rounded out by John Maine, Oliver Perez (haha!) and Jon Niese, but both Perez and Niese were injured during their most recent series against the Marlins. They're currently 11th in the NL in team ERA and 12th in innings pitched.
Where the Mets (surprisingly) strive is in the bullpen. Despite already pitching a ridiculous 133.2 innings, they've posted the #1 bullpen ERA in the NL with an impressive mark of 2.63. As everyone knows, they're led by wild-yet-effective closer Francisco Rodriguez. Besides K-Rod, Hisanori Takahashi, Manny Acosta (haha!), Fernando Nieve, Pedro Feliciano and impressive rookie Jenrry Mejia fill out the 'pen for New York. The Braves tore the DBacks and Brewers bullpens apart. Let's hope they do the same to the Mutts.
Offensively, the Mets have been an average club. They're still without CF Carlos Beltran, but have received good play from rookie 1B Ike Davis to help make up for the loss. The Mets have a ton of speed at the top of their lineup with
douchebag SS Jose Reyes and 2B Luis Castillo. The middle of their order features David Wright, Jason Bay, the afore mentioned Davis and former Brave Jeff Francoeur (haha!). Catcher Rod Barajas has been a very pleasant surprise for the Mets, who leads the team with 9 HRs.
The Mets are 10th in the NL in runs scored and struggle with the long ball at times, but do a great job on the base paths with an impressive 34 steals in 42 attempts. The spacious Citi Field plays a role in this, but the Mets also lead the NL in triples. It'll be interesting to see if the Braves are able to shut the Mutts down on the base paths.
Monday, 7:10EST - Mike Pelfrey vs. Derek Lowe
Pelfrey's Line: 4-1 3.14ERA 43.0IP 17BB/31K 1.35WHIP
Lowe's Line: 5-3 5.73ERA 44IP 21BB/25K 1.61WHIP
Pelfrey's Last Start: His last start certainly wasn't a pretty one. Pelfrey went 5.2 innings against the Nationals and struggled, giving up 4 runs on 7 hits and 3 walks. Pelfrey made a start against the Braves earlier this year and won 1-0 in a rain-shortened game. Similar to the Nationals game, Pelfrey had a ton of runners on base as he walked 5 and gave up 5 hits.
Lowe's Last Start: Our $60MM "ace" pitched very well in Milwaukee, going 6 strong innings against the potent Brewers lineup. DLowe probably could've gone deeper into the game, but the Brew Crew (finally) broke through against him. He hasn't faced the Mets in 2010.
Tuesday, 7:10EST - Johan Santana vs. Kris Medlen
Santana's Line: 3-2 3.88ERA 48.2IP 12BB/40K 1.21WHIP
Medlen's Line: 1-1 2.35ERA 23.0IP 3BB/20K 1.22WHIP
Santana's Last Start: The ace lefty pitched a great game in his last start against the Marlins. He pitched 7 innings and allowed 1 un-earned run on only 6 hits and a walk. Santana hasn't faced the Braves in 2010.
Medlen's Last Start: Medlen, who made his first start of the year last Saturday afternoon against the Phillies, was a victim of a high pitch count and was way too hittable for the Phillies lineup. He went 4.2 innings and gave up 9 hits, but somehow managed to hold the opposition to 1 run. Meds made a relief appearance against the Mets and threw a scoreless inning.
Questions for the Series:
1. Will the Braves continue to hit the ball well? They hit well against the Brewers and DBacks, but the Braves will face the Mutts top-2 pitchers and one of the best bullpens in the NL.
2. How will Kris Medlen, a relative unknown, pitch against Johan Santana, one of the top pitchers in baseball?
3. Will the Braves continue to play well at home? They have an impressive 10-5 record on the season so far.

PICTURES: Tree and scaffolding wrecked by strong winds in Lambourn Road, Clapham
Updated 3:04pm Saturday 15th February 2014 in News By Omar Oakes
Violent winds took their toll in Clapham overnight as a large tree fell on to a block of flats.
Scaffolding was also damaged in Lambourn Road, near Clapham Common, as winds of up to 70mph brought down trees across southwest London and Surrey in the early hours of this morning.
Residents were told to stay away from windows until tree surgeons arrive, while firefighters worked to make the damaged scaffolding safe. No injuries were reported.
Beverley Morrison said she was awoken at 4am to the clattering caused by boards being blown off, and shared these pictures with our readers.

As I walked out my door, I was startled by a large bug in my face. The bug then flew down into the petunias in my flowerbed. It finally stayed on one long enough to recognize that the insect was a hummingbird moth. Its approximately 2 1/2 inches long and beats its wings constantly like a hummingbird as it drinks nectar from flowers. This is only the third hummingbird moth that I've seen in the last two years. They're very unique and interesting to watch, but if you get too close they will fly away.

Which booze goes best in your favorite cocktail?
posted on 28 Jun 2012
How do you get a group of mixologists to start a bar room brawl? Mumble something about "Cocktail" being the best bar movie of all time and then blame it on someone else at the bar or just ask them what the best gin for a Negroni is.
The Ultimate Beverage Competition aims to take a stand on which booze goes best in what drink. They pulled together some of America's best drinkers and taste-tested all kinds of cocktails with different brands in them, each time. They figured that the best gin for an Aviation was Brooker's London Dry; the best tequila in a margarita was Tres Agaves Bianco; the best cognac in a sidecar is the Remy Martin VSOP, and lots more.
Who did this? Who is it that can tell us what's supposed to be in some of our favorite drinks? Well, it's folks like Dave Wondrich, Dale DeGroff, Eric Alperin, Julie Reiner and Jim Meehan, and quite a few more. It's the A-Team of Tastebuds! The Seal Team 6 of Libations! You get the idea.
Should you listen to these guys? Hell, no. It sure is a lot of fun to talk about, though, isn't it? Do your own test and let us know what you think on our Facebook page.
Read the results and even download a .pdf of the results over at the Ultimate Beverage Challenge site. Get the definitive answers and live by them! At least, until next year.
Oh, and for the record: If a bartender is channel surfing and he/she comes across the movie, "Cocktail," then you're damn skippy they'll be watching it.

Excellent character actors - very visual.

Is there really a devil? This is the question that haunts "Bones" Terwilliger, a two-bit gambler and hustler, when he encounters a transient who offers him great wealth in exchange for his soul. This episode offers an interesting commentary on the nature of evil, and the way in which our path in life is determined more by small, seemingly insignicant acts and decisions, rather than big, dramatic events.

Medication errors may sound harmless, but mistakes in prescribing, dispensing and administering medications injure more than 1 million people a year in the United States. Yet most medication errors can be prevented. How can you protect yourself and your family?
One of the best ways to reduce your risk of being harmed by medication errors is to take an active role in your health care. Learn about the medications you take — including possible side effects. Never hesitate to ask questions or share concerns with your doctor, pharmacist and other health care providers.
Medication errors are preventable events that lead to medications being used inappropriately. Medication errors that cause harm are called adverse drug events.
An example of a medication error is taking over-the-counter products that contain acetaminophen when you're already taking prescription pain medicine that contains acetaminophen, possibly exceeding the recommended dose and putting yourself at risk of liver damage.
Another example of a possible error is taking sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (used to treat infection) at the same time as warfarin (a blood thinner). This combination can increase your risk of dangerous bleeding.
Although medication errors can happen anywhere, including your own home, most occur in doctors' offices, hospitals and pharmacies. Knowing what you're up against can help you play it safe. The most common causes of medication errors are:
Knowledge is your best defense. If you don't understand something your doctor says, ask for an explanation. Whenever you start a new medication, make sure you know the answers to the following:
Asking questions is essential, but it isn't enough. You also have to share information with your doctor and pharmacist, especially if you're getting a new prescription or seeing a new doctor. Here's what you need to tell your health care providers:
The following medication errors have happened to real people. Don't make these same mistakes:
Get into the habit of playing it safe with these medication tips:
"Don't ask, don't tell" is never a smart policy when it comes to medications and your health. Don't hesitate to ask questions or to tell your health care providers if anything seems amiss. Remember, you're the final line of defense against medication errors.
If despite your efforts you have problems with a medication, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether to report it to MedWatch — the Food and Drug Administration safety and adverse event reporting program. Reporting to MedWatch is easy, confidential and secure — and it can help save others from being harmed by medication errors.

One article has stayed with me since I first read it last week. I'm having a hard time even processing what I've read, much less any sort of biblical foundation for the decision.
The Kentucky Baptist Convention's president of children services is urging the convention to change their hiring policy for Sunrise Children's Services to allow the hiring of homosexuals. In a recent closed-door meeting the president, Bill Smithwick told trustees that "federal protection for homosexuals in the workplace as a 'civil right' just as race, gender, national origin, etc., is certain to become law sooner than later. Sunrise will comply or lose."
Smithwick then presented three options to the leaders including "Follow current policy and terminate the employees. Then refuse to hire homosexuals even when doing so becomes a condition of receiving federal funding. (2) Terminate the employees according to current policy, wait until the government mandates a change, then comply. (3) Change the employment policy now.
Smithwick advocated the third option, arguing that Sunrise cannot operate without government funds and that it risks losing major secular sponsors if it fires homosexuals.
"A church or religious organization can hire all Christians and hold them to their standards…but they cannot accept state/federal monies. Sunrise cannot meet the needs of today's abused and neglected children without public assistance." [Read more...]

---- — To the editor:
For many years, the American Legion has promoted an amendment to the U.S. Constitution prohibiting the desecration of the American flag.
It was within one or two votes of passing the Senate but lost by two votes. At the time, Sen. Ted Kennedy and Sen. John Kerry cast negative votes.
The amendment is again being introduced before Congress as House Joint Resolution HJ47 and Senate Joint Resolution SJ17. The public is strongly urged to contact all members, both of the Senate and House of Representatives, to co-author and vote for passage of the amendment to the Constitution making it illegal to desecrate our national symbol.
I urge all citizens to express their desire that this amendment be passed by the federal government and sent on for ratification by the legislature of each state and commonwealth.

Like another reviewer, I thought this too sweet, almost sickeningly so. I added a little salt (okay, a lot of salt!) to balance out the sweetness. It turned out really good after that.
Reviewed Feb. 4, 2012
Loved this. We were looking for it to be sweet, but I used about 8oz of melted white chocolate chips instead of the candy coating.
Reviewed Nov. 28, 2011
Far too sweet.I think had peanut butter chips had been substituted for half of the white candy coating, it might have been ok.No one seemed to care for it.
Reviewed Dec. 20, 2010
This is addicting. I've taken it to several Christmas gatherings and recieved rave reviews.
