Cast of "Les Miserables" Film Will Perform on the Academy Awards
By Andrew Gans
Cast members from the Oscar-nominated film "Les Miserables" — based on the international hit stage musical — will perform on the 85th Academy Awards, according to the U.K.'s Daily Mail.
Which song (or songs) from the musical will be performed has not yet been decided, but TV watchers can expect to see "Les Miserables" stars Hugh Jackman, Samantha Barks, Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne, Amanda Seyfried and more. The Daily Mail speculates the film's cast may offer a medley of songs or a group performance of either "One Day More" or "Do You Hear The People Sing?"
"Les Misérables," the starry film adaptation of the award-winning musical of the same name, earned eight nominations, including Best Picture. Hugh Jackman (Best Actor in a Leading Role) and Anne Hathaway (Best Actress in a Supporting Role) were nominated for their performances as Valjean and Fantine, respectively, and Tony-winning songwriters Claude-Michel Schonberg and Alain Boublil were nominated for the new song written for the film, "Suddenly."
Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2012 will be presented Feb. 24 at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center. ABC will broadcast the event live.

Souls on 'The Line' | Guatemala City sex workers turn to fútbol for a sense of who they are
Las Estrellas desire to be seen in a new light, as women and mothers first, and to expose the structural inequities that make prostitution almost an inevitability for uneducated, often illiterate women lacking alternatives. At the same time, however, this group of some 160 women along La Línea—merely a fraction of the estimated 17,000 sex workers throughout the country—promotes its work as a legitimate occupation and advocates for a sex-workers' union to offer labor and human rights protection. "Prostitution is a job like any other," reads Las Estrellas' manifesto.
The trade is legal in Guatemala for women 18 and over, although it is against the law to "promote, facilitate or foster" prostitution. The women, therefore, have been limited in their ability to organize, given that a union could be interpreted as an illegal extension of the trade. They rent rooms along La Línea for 40 quetzales, or $5, per day, charging clients perhaps 20 quetzales for 10 minutes. Under-age girls sometimes are hidden in secret stow areas, spread among some 600 Guatemala City bars and brothels (Janine Zeitlin, "Teenage Prostitution a Way of Life in Guatemala," Naples Daily News [Fla.], 30 Jan 06).
Las Estrellas have called attention to this precarious existence in part by submitting to interviews for the documentary within their cramped, rented rooms. They also publicized the murders since 2001 of more than 2,500 women, many of them sex workers (see Amnesty International), as well as complicity of police in corruption tied to regulation of the sex industry. Two Salvadoran members of Las Estrellas, for example, say police often demand sex in exchange for not having the women jailed or deported.
These facts tie to a prevailing culture of disregard for women in which prostitution is well-established and a shockingly low percentage of women, less than 11 percent, are employed outside the menial wage-labor sector. Even more insidious, within the "honor and shame" dynamic identified by cultural anthropologists, sex workers both threaten the reproductive order of family life yet enable a system in which men must control women's behavior and self-will. "It's a patriarchal culture," says Maria Villarreal, Latin American representative to ECPAT (End Child Prostitution in Asian Tourism). "[Police] think the girls are sexually exploited because they like to be sexually exploited. They are seen as the bad girls."
Scholar David McCreery's review of police and other government records at the Archivo General de Centro América uncovers a brothel system in full function in Guatemala City by the late 19th century, with indications that the sex worker's plight has changed little in more than 125 years. The legalization of the sex trade in 1881 and subsequent changes in regulation enabled the forcing of women into houses of prostitution for indebtedness, with a near guarantee that their life situations would remain in extremis. Bordels such as La Bella Alhambra, Mansion de Venus and El Palacio de Cristal operated with state sanction. "By her degradation," McCreery writes, "the prostitute reinforces the approved social role for women of 'virgin-mother,' evident in the Catholic world in the cult of the Virgin." Restraint is not expected of men, so women's activities, and certainly those of the prostitute, are regulated to enable them to perform their social function. Guatemalan writer Miguel Ángel Asturias, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature (1967), imagines the 19th-century clientele in the novel El señor presidente (1946):
Some inexperienced boys would turn up during the early part of the night. … Afterwards the serious clients began to arrive in relays. A respectable businessman, ardent and pot-bellied, with an astronomical amount of flesh surrounding his thoracic cavity. A shop assistant, who embraced the girls as if measuring cloth by the yard, in contrast to the doctor who looked as if he was ausculating them. A journalist who always left something in pawn, even if only his hat. A lawyer … a countryman with milk white teeth. A round-shouldered civil servant, unattractive to women. A portly tradesman. A workman smelling of sheepskin.

Target Statement:
"The time period
of the breach remains unchanged which is November 27 – December 15. On December
19, we confirmed that approximately 40 million credit and debit cards of guests
who shopped in our U.S. stores during that time period were potentially
compromised. That remains unchanged. Today we are sharing that, as the result of
the data breach, it has been now been confirmed that the partial personal
information for up to 70 million individuals was also stolen. These are two
distinct groups. While there may some overlap between the two groups (the 40
million and the 70 million) but we don't know to what extent at this time."
(FOX 11 / AP) Target says that personal information — including phone numbers and email and mailing addresses — was stolen from as many as 70 million customers in its pre-Christmas data breach. That was substantially more customers than Target had previously said were affected.
The chain also indicated its sales have been hurt by the breach, cutting its forecast for fourth-quarter earnings and a key sales barometer.
Its stock slipped in early morning trading Friday.
Target Corp. announced in December that about 40 million credit and debit cards may have been affected by a data breach that happened between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15 — just as the holiday shopping season was getting into gear.
But the net has now been cast wider, with more shoppers potentially impacted.
The company told customers Friday that its ongoing investigation of the breach has shown that more personal information had been stolen than it was aware of before and more customers were affected. It previously disclosed to customers that names, credit and debit card numbers, card expiration dates, debit-card PINs and the embedded code on the magnetic strip on the back of cards had been stolen.
''I know that it is frustrating for our guests to learn that this information was taken and we are truly sorry they are having to endure this,'' Chairman, President and CEO Gregg Steinhafel said in a statement.
The company said customers won't be liable for the cost of any fraudulent charges that stemmed from the breach.
Target said it will try to contact customers it has email addresses for to provide tips on how to safeguard against consumer scams. The company said it won't ask customers for any personal information during its email communications.
It's also offering a year of free credit monitoring and identity theft protection to customers that shopped at its stores. Individuals will have three months to enroll in the program. Target said it will provide more details on that next week.
Target lowered its fourth-quarter adjusted earnings guidance to a range of $1.20 to $1.30 per share, down from $1.50 to $1.60 per share.
Analysts surveyed by FactSet expect earnings of $1.24 per share.
The Minneapolis company also said that it now foresees fourth-quarter sales at stores open at least a year will be down about 2.5 percent. It previously predicted those sales would be about flat.
This figure is a closely-watched indicator of a retailer's health. It excludes results from stores recently opened or closed.
Target cautioned that its fourth-quarter financials may include charges related to the data breach. The chain said the costs tied to the breach may have a material adverse effect on its quarterly results as well as future periods.
Shares of Target declined 32 cents to $63.03 shortly after the market opened.
The company has 1,921 stores, with 1,797 locations in the U.S. and 124 in Canada.

Another Key Difference Between REST and SOAP
A lot has been written about the difference between REST APIs and SOAP
Web Services. The technical differences are well known at this stage.
SOAP is heavyweight, while REST is light and mobile-friendly. However,
there is another key difference which is often overlooked:
- It is easy to create SOAP Web Services, but difficult to consume them.
- It is difficult to create a good REST APIs, but easy to consume them.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is The Professor!
Facts about The Professor
- Breed: Catahoula Leopard Dog Mix
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
The Professor's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Hey y'all we are the pups from Gilligan's Island! We were born on Feb.27,2013. We are Catahoula Leopard dogs and here's our story. The folks who own our dogie mama decided they just didn't want to deal with us kids so they brought us deep into the scary forest and just dumped us there! Not very nice people. Lucky for us a hunter out in the woods came upon us and brought us to this rescue place. We now have toys and chew bones and lots of good food and water. We're here just waiting for you to take us home!
Other Pets at Dogs In Harmony -- Allentown
Why Adoption is a Great Option
The Professor, a Allentown Catahoula Leopard Dog puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Catahoula Leopard Dog for sale in Allentown, or seeking a Catahoula Leopard Dog puppy from a breeder in Allentown.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Allentown already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Allentown breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Catahoula Leopard Dog breeders who help with Catahoula Leopard Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Allentown paves the way for another one to be saved.

Can anyone else confirm RDA is highly unresponsive right now, also with minimal graphics quality?
Touch actions barely register and changing graphics quality takes forever, if it manages to finish at all.
I tried various Symbian Anna phones such as X7, E7, C7. A 5800 or two seemed to fare a little better, but also these would get stuck for long periods when trying to change graphics quality.

Whiteway: Yes! It was so wonderful to be validated like that by your fellow artists and have the art and work you are doing as an institution valued. It was our second Tony Award, which is also a distinction. Goodspeed is the only other institution to have received two.
As you know, the Regional Theatre Award is recomended to the Tony Award committee by the [American] Theatre Critics Association (ATCA), and the O'Neill having started both the National Critics Institute and ATCA having begun at the O'Neill, there was a wonderful full circle. We were the first developmental theatre to be recognized that way.
Question: Do you have an specific memories of that night?
Even though you're sleeping in a dorm and there is a cafeteria line, there is something magical about this place and I've found it reminds artists why they got into theatre in the first place. When the O'Neill's name was called out that night, the cheer that went up was one of the loudest of the night. It was very humbling.
Question: That sounds fantastic. There is so much exciting stuff happening. You have received a $3 million grant from the state of Connecticut.
Whiteway: Yes, that's part of the a larger campaign to start an undergraduate program in music theatre training.
Question: What do you see in the future for the conferences?
Whiteway: What's wonderful about the inherent mission of this place, the fact that we are constantly, just because of our very nature, on the cutting edge of new theatre, new artistry. For whichever program, it is in our DNA to push the art form forward. In many ways our audience is not just the local community that is coming to see our work, but we are serving the American theatre by launching and bringing new plays to the canon to be performed all over the country and the world.Continued...

Im just coming back to web design after a long (say 10 year!) hiatus. I have a small project to undertake to ease me back into it designing / developing a small website for a local football team. I envisage the site having 3 or 4 pages where the content remains largely static. But I also want some dynamic areas such as an image gallery and a forum. And I also need to be able to use the homepage to accommodate News updates so need this page to accommodate updated news stories and an archive to old ones like a blog.
Now, Id like to be as hands on as possible, without losing sight of the fact that I have a steep learning curve. For this reason, I would like to use basic tools such as Notepad++ rather than Dreamweaver and I want to steer clear or Wordpress (even though WP will probably give me everything I need to create a great site).
I found a template Id like to use here: http://luiszuno.com/themes/shinra/
So, no specific questions really; just wondering if anyone has any general tips or can see any easy pitfalls Im about to fall into.

I am a longtime Ratt fan who owns their entire collection and have seen them live many times. They never disappointed me — until this one. Bottom line, this "album" is horrible, and the band should be ashamed for taking their fans' money this way. Something well short of the original Ratt posse delivers what can best be described as an unpolished, garage-band product. And believe me, I'm being generous. I still love Ratt, but I have to Tell the World that the boys should feel nothing but Shame Shame Shame on this one.

Ratt 'Collage' was the first album the band put out in 6 years and a lot of people thought it was a new studio album. Thus, they were suckered into buying it. This is an album of unreleased stuff from various points in their career, some of it from the original sessions and the other songs are rerecorded with the new bass player (at the time), Robbie Crane, on the bass.
It is really no wonder these songs never came out, they show a lot of potential and even have a good production but they totally lack melody and hooks. I know this sounds negative but none of the songs are remotely catchy. "Steel River" is an unmemorable song that really sounds like a different band. "Dr. Rock" has to be one of the worst songs Ratt has ever put on a record, it sounds like a bad, bad cover of a bad, bad Kiss b-side. Fitting considering that "Dr. Rock" was written when the original lineup of the band (PRE-record deal) was in high school and known as MICKEY RATT.
Things get slightly better with the next two tracks, which are among the best on the record, "Diamond time again" and "Ratt Madness." Both of these are aggressive and classic Ratt. Ironically, "Ratt Madness" is one of the shortest songs on the disc, clocking in around the 3-minute mark as it seems to be missing a verse. "Hold tight" and "I want it all" are very generic and not even worth mentioning.
"Mother Blues" is a softer acoustic song and another of the limited highlights. The song was actually recorded for the band that Stephen Pearcy formed after he first quit Ratt, called Arcade. The song is rerecorded for 'Collage.' The next song is intriguing, if not overly memorable. A song from the 'Detonator' cd, called "Top secret" is on here in its original and rawer demo version. Remember, the 'Detonator' version of this song was slicker and more polished, it's good to see what it was like before it was finished up for that album.
"Take it anyway" is a pedestrain rock song and another very short track, about the same length as "Ratt madness" and like "Ratt madness" this song is fast-paced and has a pseudo-punk vibe to it. The album is closed with an extended dance/club remix of a song from 'Detonator', "Loving you's a dirty job" which is another highlight if you are into that sort of thing.
There really isn't much stellar musicianship on this album, which is a surprise as Ratt was known for having a tight rhythm section, even though Steve Pearcy puts through a good vocal performance. These songs could have used some more work, especially considering a few were in fact reworked/fixed-up with an altered lineup during the recording in 1996-1997. I get chills thinking of what some of the original sessions of these songs sounded like.
This album is strictly for the Ratt diehard or to complete a collection, certainly not a good introduction to the band, it doesn't do them much justice. However, it is good of DeRock Records and the band to put this out for the diehard Ratt fans as these songs do have a right to be heard. That still doesn't mean you have to like it. I am a fan of Ratt, owning every album all the way back to the self-titled debut EP. However, this is easily their most disappointing release.
The new thacks on this album show the deversity of one of the 80's best least known guitarists. Werren DeMartini is in prime form as the rythum section deminstrates there deversity to mix new styles with old metal beats. Pearcy's vocals are trying at times and almost drowned out at others which isn't a bad thing. The taste of new material is probibly an attempt of a new record label to test the market and see if a commitment is worth the capital. What ever you say about the boys this is a must have for true ratt & roll fans. If round and round is all you have herd from the group then this is a real shocker. I will recommend this album to any one with either two ratt albums in there archives or interested is something new but familiar.
This is some previously unreleased tracks and demos plus a funked up version of Dirty Job only available on the Detonator video.A great little collector for the true Ratt fan!
I'm shocked by the negative reviews. No, they didn't rehash "Out of the Cellar". They've matured into a great mix of old and new sounds. I've always considered Stephen Pearcy to be a terrific talent. He shines, soars, and sneers on this with one of the most underrated guitarists of the last 20 years, Warren Dimartini, pushing the groove behind him! This is a great CD.

To say that the Washington Redskins have an issue at quarterback entering the 2011 season is a bit of an understatement. Donovan McNabb is the center of the controversy, as he is in line to receive a $10 million bonus at the start of the upcoming season, but there continues to be speculation that the team will trade him or release before it gets to that point.
However, Mike Shanahan recently told fans at a youth football camp that (via ESPN) that until he can speak with McNabb, there's nothing to do on that front:
"Until I get a chance to talk to Donovan and I go through the scenario with him, I really can't share it with the public," Shanahan reportedly told a 7-year-old boy who asked if McNabb would return to Washington.
It still appears that the better option would be for the Redskins to trade him when they can, but will he just have the same issues with his new team? If he went to the Vikings, a place many speculate about, Christian Ponder is the future there and McNabb would just be stopgap and a future problem.

West Somerset council to make savings to save its future
West Somerset council is so financially stretched that its very future is in doubt, according to a confidential report seen by this programme.
The council, one of the smallest in the country, will have to make savings over the next two years, but after that faces a merger with other authorities, it says.
The report, by the Local Government Association, says the sparsely-populated area is facing a growing budget deficit which means that it will not be able to provide even minimum standards of service in the future. Various options are proposed, including sharing services with other councils.
West Somerset say tey'll consider the report next month.

Voters chose Ill. Sen. Jim Oberweis to be the Republican candidate for U.S. Senate in Tuesday's primary election. Oberweis will take on Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin in November's general election.
The dairy magnate's victory over Chicago businessman Doug Truax sends Oberweis on to a matchup with the No. 2 Democrat in the Senate.
Republicans had a lot riding on Tuesday's Illinois primary, as the party fights to remain relevant in a state where Democrats hold almost all statewide offices and a substantial majority of congressional and legislative seats.
One of the biggest decisions was to decide who has the best shot at unseating powerful, three-term Sen. Durbin.
State Senator Jim Oberweis, 67, is most well-known for his ice cream.
The Sugar Grove resident took over the family business, Oberweis Dairy, taking it from a small home delivery business with one ice cream store and 50 employees to 46 stores and more than 1,200 employees.
He insists he has the greatest name recognition because of the chain of ice cream shops his family owns and his previous campaigns for U.S. Senate.
Oberweis has run for public office six times, succeeding in 2012 when he won the race for State Senate to represent the 25th district. He's run for the opportunity to unseat Durbin twice, unsuccessful in both attempts.
The state senator said he has learned from prior missteps, including airing a political ad before a previous election in which he said the number of immigrants entering the U.S. illegally each week could fill Soldier Field.
Oberweis recently had to answer to critics. While Chicago was walloped with another snow storm, he spent the week before Tuesday's primary in sunny Florida with his wife. The couple is reported to own a home in The Sunshine State.
His opponent, Doug Truax, called him a "snow bird," flying away from the harsh reality of Chicago's cold.
Oberweis said in a statement that he made the trip as a promise to visit his wife for her birthday and to raise money for his U.S. Senate race. He has opened up and said in interviews he needs to also tend to his marriage, a very important part of his life.
Political newcomer Truax, 43, hoped being the fresh face in the race for the U.S. Senate seat would give him an edge on primary election day.
Truax's website boasts that he's a young conservative, a West Point and Army Ranger school grad and an Army veteran.
The Downer's Grove resident owns a health insurance consulting firm and is a self-proclaimed Obamacare expert. In fact, he's posted these videos on YouTube explaining why he says it won't work.
"Today you'll hear video from Illinoisans who have already been affected by Obamacare," Truax said. "Sadly they represent thousands that are in the same boat - here are their stories."
Truax hopes to maximize on what he describes as Sen. Durbin's "vulnerability." He said nearly 70 percent of the population is open to an alternative. He told FOX 32 News he hopes it's him. Truax has the support of former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich and U.S. Rep. Aaron Schock, a Peoria Republican.
Regarding the troubled economic environment, Truax said his experience as a private sector business owner is a benefit. He touts a successful Oak Brook-based strategic risk consulting firm that empowers employees by controlling their health care costs, benefits, retirement plans and business risks.
Though Truax struggled in the polls, this fresh face hoped to appeal to youth, women, independents and conservative Democrats - his recipe for success.
The GOP hopes to at least give Durbin a scare, but after 32 years in Washington, he has no primary opposition and a big war chest. Even so, some political observers consider Durbin vulnerable because he helped get President Barack Obama's troubled health care program signed into law.
The decision was also crucial because Oberweis' name will top the GOP ticket, just above a governor's race, which the party believes it can win after more than a decade of Democratic control.

The mystery continues over who put needles in sandwiches on four different Delta flights last summer. Business class travelers found the needles in turkey sandwiches.
All of the flights originated in Amsterdam and were bound for Atlanta, Minneapolis, and Seattle.
But even after authorities in Amsterdam spent six months investigating, including looking at security camera footage and interviewing employees who delivered the sandwiches, they were unable to come up with a suspect, reports the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Delta puts the responsibility for the incidents on its caterer, Gate Gourmet. The paper reports Gate Gourmet says it has adjusted its protocols and continues to work closely with regulators.

|123 adoption parenting new parents adoptive parents
Adoptive Parents
Whether you are an older parent, adoptive parent, first-time parent, or all of the above, one fact remains - you are now responsible for the life of a child. It doesn't matter if the child you are caring for is yours by birth, adoption, or through the foster care system. This child, regardless of age, need, or background needs you.
Couples new to the business of parenting often have many reservations, especially with regards to older children, special needs children, or racially different children. People become highly concerned as to whether they will be able to provide the type of life the child will need and/or expect. Parents tend to have high expectations of themselves, of which they always seem to fall short. The most important thing to remember while parenting is that your biggest obligation to your child is to be there for him or her and to love unconditionally. You can't and never will be perfect. You can only do your best and hope it is enough.
As a new parent of a baby, visit http://baby-care.adoption.com for more helpful information.

CATEGORIES Animation, Comedy, New Releases, DVD Reviews, New on DVD, Family Films, Home Entertainment, Features, DVDs, Movies, New Releases, CinematicalAfter 20 pages of new DVD releases over at Amazon, I forced myself to unclench my desperate fingers and remove them from my mouse. I need to face facts. This won't be an amazing week of DVD recommendations for you, or excited suggestions (on my part). This is a movie blog, so I can't suggest How Clean is Your House?, which I sort of love, Peter picked up all the good indie pics, Erik is reviewing Into the Wild's DVD, so I'm left with two options, which I'll discuss briefly.
101 Dalmatians
Rejoice! If you haven't picked it up during one of Disney's previous releases, you can now score the Two-Disc Platinum Edition of the 47-year-old, classic, dog-laden film, 101 Dalmatians. Just in case you forgot -- it's the story of two cute canines who have a litter of 15 puppies, and the sadistic Cruella De Vil who wants to steal them all on her quest to make a dalmatian coat. The realist in me figures that there will probably be another release in 3 years, when the flick turns 50, but c'mon, who ever wants to wait that long for a disc?
As for the film, two discs means lots of features. There are two pop-up tracks (family and fan), a new music video, informational guide, games, music (which features deleted songs, alternates and the like), backstage (which gives fans a documentary on the film's creation, some screen time for the evil Cruella, a bit on ol' Walt), and even a little more for eager fans.
Buy the DVD
*Spelling corrected, thanks to Greg.
Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium
Ah, the film I have not seen. I'm sure there are some fans out there, waiting for this release, and this is for you. Me, I love many a goofy kid's film (even the latter Spy Kids flicks), and I like all of the main cast members, but every darned piece of marketing has turned me off. But enough about me.
The story is simple: an old toy store owner is coming to the end of his life and wants to give it all to his Peter Pan-in-a-dress girl employee. You can imagine -- quirky characters, toys that come to life, and no Oompa Loompas or Big duets in sight -- basically, a kiddie adventure more magical than strange.
For one disc, the special features aren't bad. The DVD has four featurettes -- the making of, the boss/apprentice, meeting Eric Applebaum, and the magical toy store.

Increase your PHP memory limit.
This can be done by adding ini_set('memory_limit', '64M'); to sapphire/main.php

thanks - whereabouts in the main.php file do I add this?
I did have php_value memory_limit 32M
in the .htaccess file, so I increased it to 64mb.
I then got this error:

If you increase it elsewhere, you don't need the line in main.php
To fix your error, trying removing all the files (or even the folder) in /tmp/silverstripe-cache-home-USERNAME-public_html-skylt/
Re: fatal error after install
20 February 2008 at 12:20am Last edited: 20 February 2008 2:11am
this url is confusing - there is no tmp folder except outside of the www folder, and there's nothing in there that has silverstripe in the name.
I'd have thought the url should be /tmp/silverstripe/cache/home/USERNAME/public_html/skylt/ but even that makes no sense....unless its outside of the folder I have access to. Thinking about it, I think I have access only from /home/USERNAME/public_html/skylt/ up, although that doesn't explain the use of "-" instead of "/"
I have access via FTP and CPanel only, and am on a shared server.
I really want to get this going as I have a potential client who would love it.

President James V. Koch announced at his State of the University address on Aug. 24 the selection of five faculty members who will carry the title of University Professor for the next four years.
The five join 15 colleagues who were named at this time during the past two years as the first to earn the distinction.
"Regardless of where and how a faculty member teaches, it is in the highest traditions of a university community to recognize and salute those whose teaching is extraordinarily effective," Koch said.
He noted that University Professors are faculty "deemed by their own colleagues and their students as our very best and most effective teachers," adding, "While all faculty engage in a variety of activities during their careers, and especially undertake scholarly productivity in the form of publication, performances and exhibits, nearly all would agree that teaching is the activity that most defines what it is that faculty members do."
University Professors receive a four-year appointment and an annual stipend of $2,500 to support their teaching and related professional activities.
Selected for the award are:
*Janet M. Bing, English
*Kenneth G. Daley, art
*John Hackworth, engineering technology
*Ronald E. Johnson, ocean, earth and atmospheric sciences
*Zia Razzaq, civil and environmental engineering.

Get bigger yields, better flavor and more nutritional value from your vegetable garden with proper harvesting.
Pick beans when the pod is nearly full size but before the seeds begin to bulge. Lumpy beans are edible, just not as tasty.
Harvest cucumbers based on their use. Pick the fruit when it's 1 ½ to 2 ½ inches long for sweet pickles, and 3 to 4 inches when making dills. Harvest slicing cucumbers when the skin is firm, bright green and the fruit is 6 to 9 inches long.
Misshapen and bitter flavored cucumbers are usually the result of drought, improper fertilization and large fluctuations in temperatures
Peppers are ready to harvest when the pepper is firm and fully colored. Leave them on the plant a bit longer for a sweeter tasting pepper.
Ripe tomatoes taste even better if left on the plant for an extra 5 to 8 warm days.
Increase your cabbage harvest without increasing your planting space and number of plants grown. Just change your harvesting habits.
Remove full-sized cabbage by cutting just beneath the head. Leave the lower leaves, stem and roots intact, then wait for 4 or 5 more heads to develop. Harvest these smaller heads when they are about 4 inches in diameter.

As early Friday night, South Orange could see what meterologists describe as a "killing frost." Two weather systems heading east will bring cold weather and the possibility of flurries, according to Accuweather.
Could this mean that locals will face another Halloween ice storm? Last year's storm closed schools for two days and made for challenging trick-or-treating.
It's possible. Experts predict a "wild" winter for the Northeast, including higher than average snowfall. For the record, the New York City average is 25.3 inches annually.

The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

Neighbors oppose UO golf course proposal
Nov 16, 2012
By The Associated Press
EUGENE — Neighbors of a proposed golf course for the University of Oregon are challenging a county permit for the project, concerned that turf chemicals and water use could harm the surrounding area.
Backers of the course need a planning department permit before they begin raising money for the golf course, estimated to cost up to $30 million.
The Register-Guard reports (http://is.gd/JXUo2u ) the money to buy 800 acres near Creswell and build the 18-hole course would come entirely from donors.
It would be the home course for university golf teams and would be open to alumni, staff, students and guests.
A ruling on the permit is expected by the end of December.

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.
Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.

Federal government must go on a diet
My apologies to the obese, but I think this works.
When someone is overweight, the way to lose weight is to eat less. Our country is "overweight." The nation has sat a smorgasbord of excess, and the only way we can solve our problems is to cut spending.
You don't lose weight by eating more. Is a diet fun? Not often. Is it hard? Always!
Think about what is going on now. Like a reluctant dieter, our government says give me food (tax dollars), and I promise to diet next year. Trouble is, from past experience of Democratic Congresses, this hasn't happened.
Oh, they claim we've cut debt, but all they did was AT BEST cut the rate.
Let's say you are $10,000 in debt. You go to buy a car. You have your heart set on a new luxury SUV, but instead buy a used minivan.
You have saved dollars, but your debt went up. Your bottom line may be better, but is your debt reduced or just less than the SUV's? Congress would say we cut spending.
For every dollar the government spends, it borrows 46 cents. Yes, for every dollar spent almost half is borrowed. Proverbs says a borrower is slave to the lender.
Nobody denies reports that Americans are getting fatter. But when we shift to public spending, we ignore the reality of where we are heading. The beast, our spending, is a monster, and it cannot keep being fed at that rate and by the people who are feeding it.
Half of Americans do not pay federal income taxes. The top 2 percent of all taxpayers pay something approaching 30 percent of all tax revenue.
Is that fair? Will the beast say that 40 percent is a fair rate for the top 2 percent, or is it just fair today and when the beast gets hungrier it will force more?
When will the beast be happy? Never!
Mike Moran, Kokomo
51 percent choose a better economy
As part of the 51 percent who voted to re-elect President Obama, it puzzled me why conservatives seemed interested in the same talking points at the very same time.
Friends and family members adamantly pointed out President Obama was not born in the U.S and was a Muslim. Then they all talked up Sarah Palin as president. Then, just as adamantly, it was Herman Cain, and then Mitt Romney.
Now President Obama's arrogance is their primary concern. Why, seemingly in lock step, have they changed their primary concern?
Then I saw on Fox News a picture of President Obama wearing a crown and being called an arrogant ruler. Is the news division of the Republican Party calling the shots?
President Obama, arrogant or not, doesn't have the corner on arrogance. Just look at the Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan and Eric Cantor. There's enough arrogance to go around.
Looking past the arrogance factor and to motivations behind our political parties, the party in the Oval Office wants to look good to the voters while the other party attempts to make them look bad. In the current environment, looking good means economic improvement and looking bad means stiffled economic improvement.
If the economy improves dramatically, which I believe it will, the Democrats will lock up the 2016 election. If the ecomony doesn't improve, the Republicans will lock up the 2016 election for themselves.
So, arrogance aside, I believe the 51 percent and many others would choose economic improvement by the party currently in the Oval Office over another four years of stiffled economic improvement by the party seeking to make them look bad, regardless of what it means to the 2016 elections.
Larry Brooks, Kokomo

Amarillo, TX - An Amarillo man is re-indicted on murder charges stemming from a shooting death over the 2012 Easter weekend.
20-year-old Matthew Mason has been indicted by the Potter County Grand Jury on 1st degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
The charges stem from the death of Adrian Chavez, who was gunned down at his convenience store, La Esquina, during a robbery.
Mason had been charged last May, but his case was dropped in July before DNA found on a mask near that store led to the latest indictments.
Mason remains jailed in Potter County on 500,000 dollars bond.
If convicted, he faces up to life in prison and a 10,000 dollar fine.
