Nicolas Rossier conducted an exclusive interview with former Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in forced exile in Johannesburg. Aristide concludes: "We are poor – worse than poor because we are living in abject poverty and misery. But based on that collective dignity rooted in our forefathers, I do believe we have to continue fighting in a peaceful way for our self-determination, and if we do that, history will pay tribute to our generation."

NEW LISBON, Wisconsin (WXOW)-- According to the DNR, hunters harvested nearly 244-thousand deer during the 2012 Wisconsin's nine-day gun season.
That number is up 7.7 percent from 2010.
Of the total, 114-800 were bucks.
Thad Barnes and Mike Hayes are the best of friends.
Both are 19, grew up out on the farm, are neighbors and spend hundreds of hours each year out in the woods.
"I met Mike when I was five or six years old. So, I have known him for 15 years. It seems like Mike and I always got to be tagging along together. It has always been a great time. I would come up here and we would always go down in the woods or go fishing and just a couple of years ago I was able to start hunting up here," said Thad Barnes.
"My dad would take me out when I was younger and I was really good friends with Thad and got to know him and said we should go turkey hunting sometime and it has turned into something pretty special that we enjoy doing together it seems like when we are together we always succeed or if we are near we are always shooting turkeys or deer," said Mike Hayes.
"The Hayes family is such a nice family to hangout with. The whole family is good friends with each other. They take you in and treat you like you are part of the family. It is a really great thing to have," said Barnes.
Throughout the years, these two have also bonded over big bucks.
Their is12 bucks in the past 6 years.
On opening day, Thad harvested a ten point that scored 160 and had an inside spread of 18 inches.
While Thad started the season off with a bang-- Mike closed the season that way.
Mike had an 8 point buck with a16 1/2 inch spread cross his path at about 9:15 a.m. on the final day of the season.
This Mike's ninth buck to score over 130.
These two keep track.
"Yeah, we have to have a friendly competition is seems, but he is whooping my butt so I am slowing catching him," said Barnes.
"Thad is averaging a really good score. His first was a 160, his second was a 140 and now he bagged another 160 so he has me beat in the average category, but I have killed some nice bucks. I add 9 to the total he adds three. It is pretty special though, " said Hayes.
Hayes adds, "yes, we do kill a lot of bucks, but we never take one for granted. Treat every buck that you kill like it could be your last."
They are hunters today, but will be friends forever with memories that will last a lifetime.

'3D-printed' rocket injector performs as well as more expensive, regular one in test-firing
In a follow-up to the news we reported a few weeks ago about NASA beginning test firings of its new "3D-printed" rocket engine injector (actually technically a distinctly different process than printing known as selective laser sintering, or SLS, which involves using a laser to cut stuff out of metal powder), NASA this week published a new video showing its most recent progress. As it turns out, some of NASA's SLS rocket injectors survived fully in-tact after 11 different hot-fire tests, where they were exposed to temps up to 6,000-degrees Fahrenheit. That's pretty amazing considering that at $5,000 a piece, they were half as expensive than the traditionally manufactured, nuts and bolts injector. They also took way less time to build, at just 40 hours from start to finish. But you just came here to see the video and pics of the test firing, didn't you? Have at it:

Readers' cool quips - 0 Comments
It was an ice cold commute for Green Line riders yesterday morning, but some Herald commenters took it all in stride.
Mr. Cool Hands said he made the best of a frigid situation.
"I was one of the many stranded by the Green Line," said Mr. Cool Hands, who finally hopped a shuttle bus. "My face and ears were sufficiently numb so that I didn't mind the cold anymore."
Others teamed up.
"I ended up taking a cab with three other girls who work near me," wrote Jennifer. "It was freezing but we all made it to work!"

« May day! |
pressing on...
| no egg on my face »
version 9!
Welcome to version 9 of pressing on! The major changes are here on the front page, where you'll see pictures (actual pictures on my site! Who'd have thought?), a changed menubar (both in location and in style) and a new layout.
On other pages, you'll see that the overall style doesn't change too much, but the infamous pressing on... logo has been changed just a little bit.
Another nice thing is that the style sheet that I designed for this site should work reasonably well in Netscape 4 as well. It won't look exactly like IE5+/NN6/Mozilla, but it will look reasonably good.
Also, you'll see that the theme swapper has been taken off for a little while. It was giving me problems, so I decided to take it out until I could retool it. I'm thinking of having five themes, one for each of the five "homes" represented in the pictures above. For more on the new design, check out the colophon.
In addition, I've added a golf section. Right now it doesn't give anything more than cursory information, but I'm going to add to it eventually.
As always with a new design, I'm bound to have overlooked changes that needed to be done. If you find anything as you look around, please let me know. Thanks!
Wow...nicely done. When it first came up, I thought I had accidentally clicked on the wrong bookmark. Once again, my site has earned its name... :)
I agree with Ricky. I thought, "hey! what happened?", and then I realized. Brandon updated, that's what happened. It is way cool. Keep up the good work!

It was a problem last month when our area went through a freeze and thaw cycle. Potholes are popping up again and crews are starting to hit the streets.
City leaders say complaints started coming in Thursday. They say the material city workers are using to fill the potholes makes the procedure a quick fix
It's nothing new. When the sun comes out and the snow melts, out comes the potholes. Drivers across our area are trying to maneuver around them. You can usually find at least one or two on every street or highway."Oh yeah, they are pretty bad, especially on 75. They're horrible," says Daryl Caswell. "I can't believe up sylvania. Its pot holes deep pot holes. Especially when you get to where the lane breaks down just to a two lane. You can't really swerve around with all snow. You think snow filled it up and now its melting a little bit and you hit them hard," says Bernice Neal. "The Anthony Wayne Trail is atrocious with all the pot holes," says Jason DeYung. City workers were out filling numerous potholes on the Anthony Wayne Trail. City leaders say lookout for the potholes. Some are large enough to fit a tire in them. Many drivers are trying to avoid the deep cavities. Huge holes that can cause a lot of damage to your car. "Pretty much a thump to a bing to a bounce just depends on the hole you get off on the side streets they are pretty bad where they plowed too," says Caswell. "I got a big truck and it still takes a toll on it. I'm glad that I have a 4 wheel drive vehicle its outrageous out here right now," says Deyung. You can report any potholes to 419-936-BUMP (2867).
New software will allow radar to scan storms near ground every 2 minutes instead of 4.

Frances Conroy - "American Horror Story"
Jessica Lange - "American Horror Story"
Sarah Paulson - "Game Change"
Mare Winningham - "Hatfields & McCoys"
Judy Davis - "Page Eight"
Should Win: A somewhat thin category, we'd probably lean towards Sarah Paulson for this one, mainly because we gave up on "American Horror Story" early on.
Will Win: Jessica Lange. It's barely worth the other nominees' time showing up.
Best Supporting Actor - TV Movie/Miniseries
Denis O'Hare - "American Horror Story"
Ed Harris - "Game Change"
Tom Berenger - "Hatfields & McCoys"
David Strathairn - "Hemingway & Gellhorn"
Martin Freeman - "Sherlock"
Should Win: Another category where we'd be happy for anyone to take (despite our feelings about "American Horror Story," Denis O'Hare always rocks...). But Ed Harris or Martin Freeman for us, probably.
Will Win: Anyone but Ed Harris would be a serious upset.
Mayim Bialik - "The Big Bang Theory"
Merritt Wever - "Nurse Jackie"
Julie Bowen - "Modern Family"
Kristen Wiig - "Saturday Night Live"
Sofia Vergara - "Modern Family"
Kathryn Joosten - "Desperate Housewives"
Should Win: We certainly wouldn't be against a posthumous win for Kathryn Joosten, if only to recognize the brilliance of Mrs. Landingham on "The West Wing."
Will Win: Joosten shouldn't be ruled out, but it's likely that Julie Bowen or Sofia Vergara have this in the bag. As Bowen won last year, maybe it's Vergara's turn?
Supporting Actor - Comedy
Ed O'Neill - "Modern Family"
Jesse Tyler Ferguson - "Modern Family"
Ty Burrell - "Modern Family"
Eric Stonestreet - "Modern Family"
Bill Hader - "Saturday Night Live"
Max Greenfield - "New Girl"
Should Win: We'd be delighted with some recognition for Bill Hader, but Max Greenfield came up with one of the most memorable comic creations of the year with Schmidt on "New Girl," so we'd be inclined to go with him.
Will Win: An episode submission snafu may have cost Greenfield his chance to spoil the "Modern Family" party, so we imagine it'll be a repeat win for Ty Burrell -- who is admittedly the best thing on the show.
Anna Gunn - "Breaking Bad"
Joanne Froggatt - "Downton Abbey"
Maggie Smith - "Downton Abbey"
Christine Baranski - "The Good Wife"
Archie Panjabi - "The Good Wife"
Christina Hendricks - "Mad Men"
Should Win: Christina Hendricks has been superb across "Mad Men," particularly with this season, and her performance in "The Other Woman" was phenomenal.
Will Win: Hendricks won the Critic's Choice award in this category this year, but she wasn't up against Maggie Smith, who's a near certainty to win.
Best Supporting Actor - Drama
Giancarlo Esposito - "Breaking Bad"
Aaron Paul - "Breaking Bad"
Brendan Coyle - "Downton Abbey"
Jim Carter - "Downton Abbey"
Peter Dinklage - "Game of Thrones"
Jared Harris - "Mad Men"
Should Win: A very, very tough category, but we miss Gus Fring so much that Giancarlo Esposito just edges it over Peter Dinklage and Jared Harris.
Will Win: We think Dinklage is unlikely to repeat his victory from last year, although it could happen. Our theory is actually that Esposito will win the prize, but don't count out Brendan Coyle from 'Downton.'
Connie Britton - "American Horror Story"
Ashley Judd - "Missing"
Nicole Kidman - "Hemingway & Gellhorn"
Julianne Moore - "Game Change"
Emma Thompson - "The Song of Lunch"
Should Win: We have to confess we haven't seen a few of these nominees, but we'd go with Nicole Kidman of the ones we have.
Will Win: Julianne Moore, almost certainly. Kidman could upset, but there's a very slim chance of that.
Lead Actor - Miniseries
Kevin Costner - "Hatfields & McCoys"
Benedict Cumberbatch - "Sherlock: A Scandal In Belgravia"
Idris Elba - "Luther"
Woody Harrelson - "Game Change"
Clive Owen - "Hemingway & Gellhorn"
Bill Paxton - "Hatfields & McCoys"
Should Win: A tough one, this, but we'd probably lean towards Benedict Cumberbatch or Idris Elba, though they did better work in previous seasons of their shows.
Will Win: Woody Harrelson will most likely continue the "Game Change" sweep. That said, Clive Owen shouldn't be ruled out, and nor should Kevin Costner.
Zooey Deschanel - "New Girl"
Lena Dunham - "Girls"
Edie Falco - "Nurse Jackie"
Tina Fey - "30 Rock"
Julia Louis-Dreyfus - "Veep"
Melissa McCarthy - "Mike & Molly"
Amy Poehler - "Parks and Recreation"
Should Win: A fiercely competitive category (elevated to seven nominees), we think both Deschanel and Dunham are terrific on their shows, but we'd have to lean towards Amy Poehler: we just watched the Season 4 finale of "Parks and Recreation" again, and she's absolutely terrific in it.
Will Win: Almost anyone (bar perhaps Falco) is in with a shot here, but our gut says it'll be Emmy favorite Julia Louis-Dreyfus -- she's stacked up thirteen nominations and two wins over the years.
Lead Actor - Comedy
Alec Baldwin - "30 Rock"
Don Cheadle - "House of Lies"
Louis C.K. - "Louie"
Jon Cryer - "Two and a Half Men"
Larry David - "Curb Your Enthusiasm"
Jim Parsons - "The Big Bang Theory"
Should Win: We're oddly uninspired by this category -- even Louis C.K. isn't quite as strong an actor as he is a comedian or director. Still, we'd pick him, or maybe Alec Baldwin, who's always good value.
Will Win: Jim Parsons seems likely to take his third award in a row.
Kathy Bates - "Harry's Law"
Glenn Close - "Damages"
Claire Danes - "Homeland"
Michelle Dockery - "Downton Abbey"
Julianna Marguiles - "The Good Wife"
Elisabeth Moss - "Mad Men"
Should Win: We could deal with anyone bar perhaps Kathy Bates taking this prize, but our favorite would be Claire Danes, who was spectacular in "Homeland."
Will Win: Probably Danes, as it happens, though don't rule out a 'Downton'-related upset for Michelle Dockery .
Lead Actor - Drama
Hugh Bonneville - "Downton Abbey"
Steve Buscemi - "Boardwalk Empire"
Bryan Cranston - "Breaking Bad"
Michael C. Hall - "Dexter"
Jon Hamm - "Mad Men"
Damian Lewis - "Homeland"
Should Win: In a tough category, we'd just lean with Jon Hamm, who gets better and better on "Mad Men," over Bryan Cranston and Damian Lewis (it's not his fault, but we can't help but be reminded of "Dreamcatcher" every time we see his face).
Will Win: Probably Bryan Cranston, having won three times consecutively, but Damian Lewis is a strong possibility too.

"Mad Men" did not have its finest season by a long stretch. Breaking Bad was far better, but Downton will probably win.
AS | September 20, 2012 5:50 PM
It's a fucking sham that Boardwalk Empire received not one Best Supporting Actor nomination but Breaking Bad received 2. Don't get me wrong, BB is great, but Paul and Esposito didn't come anywhere near Michael Pitt, Michael Shannon (whose been shafted 2 years in a row), Shea Whigham or Michael Stuhlbarg. And where is Kelly Macdonald's nomination? Joke. Curb Your Enthusiasm deserves to win everything it's nominated for but it won't, of course, because it has intelligence and subtlety in its favor (something the Emmy's aren't particularly fond of when it comes to Comedy). But if Homeland wins anything I'll be disgusted. The show is blander than Mitt Romney and it's racist beyond belief. It's blunt propaganda, reenforcing the notion that "the Arabs are the enemy, and the CIA are the good guys who are only trying to protect us." But this should come as no surprise, seeing as how it's produced by one of Rupert Murdoch's networks....
Benjamin | September 20, 2012 2:09 PM
As good as Hamm is, anyone beating Cranston after "Crawl Space" would be sacrilege. Bryan Cranston has set a new standard. That is what great acting looks like.
I thought the direction of "Homeland" was rather bland. It's very well-written, but it has a "Showtime look and feel" in much the same way that CBS shows all have the same look and feel. I see no creative expression in the direction. You can see spot little directorial trademarks in each Bad episode. You know each director and develop a fondness for their style and individual subtlety. Gilligan might have the strongest voice. Hail to the kingpin, baby.
http://www.snagfilms.com/ | September 20, 2012 12:42 PM
Where is your guest actors category?
Jason Ritter should win for that one.
Give Michael C Hall a freaking Emmy already!
I am so sick of tuning in every years for 6 years or whatever it is only to see him lose.
If I hear the names John Hamm or Brian Cranston again I will barf! Enough of them already. Its the same people year after year, Blah Blah Blah!
Archer Slyce | September 20, 2012 12:22 PM
Great coverage, I really like the "objective" approach here. And as far as it pains me to admit it, yep the two TV shows I disliked the most this season (Girls and American horror story) will grab a bunch of Emmy (it's what they're made for) and for all the wrong reasons ("please look at us we are subversive !"). Very very curious about what Louie will score (if anything), that should be interesting at least.

Wiz Khalifa Announces 'Taylor Allderdice' Mixtape Release Date
Wiz Khalifa's fans won't have to wait much longer. The Taylor Gang leader has announced a release date for his mixtape Taylor Allderdice.
"Taylor Allderdice Drops… March 13th TGOD," tweeted Wiz about the follow-up to his 2011 mixtape Cabin Fever.
The free project, which was named after his Pittsburgh high school, has already spawned the Juicy J-assisted "My Favorite Song" and the smokers' anthem "Mary 3x." His Taylor Gang signees LoLa Monroe and Chevy Woods are also expected to make appearances.
In addition to Allderdice, Wiz has been in the studio recording his second major label album O.N.I.F.C., due later this year.

This is another great rock'n one from Pat's 80's archive. Although the radio friendly Shadows of the Night and Little Too Late satisfy the pop seeking audience, the highlights here are the ones which were never released as singles and just happen to be written by Pat and her hubby Neil Geraldo.
On this album, which followed Crimes of Passion and Precious Time, she continued to belt out hits about the trauma, heartache and passion of looking for and falling in and out of love. Pat's vocal range and integrity remain at its best throughout this project.
"Fight It Out" has some awesome lyrics which Pat belts out in the most passionate and articulate way. Her operatic background peeks out on this somewhat angry ballad as she hits some of her higher notes while Neil shows off his excellence on guitar. Pat's articulate, passionate and highly energetic vocals continue on "The Victim", I'll Do It" and "I Want Out" and "Tell It to her". The angry love theme also continues throughout the lyrics of these great songs. Those looking for Pat's mellower sounds of peace, tranquility and contentment will have to look later in her catalog. Expect to rock with this one!

Above: the Epic with anamorphic lens
In the second and final part of this mini-shootout with the Epic and Blackmagic Cinema Camera, we take a look at the resolution chart.
The third and final part of Zacuto's debate provoking documentary on cinematography and cameras is out. Part 3 is to me kind of like Revenging the Revenge because it goes back to a non-creative scientific (empirical) test of the cameras.
They appear in order of cost from the $700 iPhone to the $70,000 Sony F65 and each are treated with the same lighting, similar settings and the same grading to match as closely as possible.
Francis Ford Coppola gives his answer in the new Zacuto Shootout, choosing in order of preference the Panasonic GH2 (lit by Colt Seaman), Alexa and Epic
Get the most from the GH2 – Read the EOSHD GH2 Shooter's Guide
The results are in from Zacuto's Revenge Of The Great Camera Shootout 2012. The majority of those at the cinema screenings – including Francis Ford Coppola preferred Colt Seaman's lighting and the capturing of it by the Panasonic GH2.
This choice was above the stiffest possible competition including the Sony F65, Red Epic, Canon C300 and Arri Alexa. There's a comment from Part 2 which really stands out for me and it sums up the reason EOSHD and my passion to write my GH2 book and the blog exists -
"The thing I was most impressed with is that some guys or gals with something to prove did better at lighting than the established cinematographers with a good camera" - Bruce Lundeen (33 min 13 seconds)
This is how you make a great film, a great shot, a great scene - Passion, hunger, creativity and a $700 camera.
Above: one of my favourite scenes from the episode, click it to enlarge to 1080p, the colour on this shot is 'early Technicolor' and 'Hitchcockian'. But I am not 100% sure which camera was used to shoot it (although I have a gut feeling!) – and that tells you a lot about how evenly matched cameras like the FS100 and GH2 are with much more expensive offerings (if viewed at 1080p)
If you haven't already I advise you to watch the episode before reading this and draw your own conclusions first. If you have seen the full screening please do not reveal the results on the comments forum.
The Zacuto Shootout is like a torch light in the dark for many aspiring, young filmmakers and it is useful – not to mention fascinating and enjoyable – to see these incredible tools fight for the best image. Now the Revenge series has added people into the mix it is even more interesting and educational.
The future is here but it seems nobody checked to see if it looked any good.
Shot with a 3D Red EPIC rig at 48fps, Peter Jackson's return to the world of JRR Tolkien has been 'stripped of the magic of cinema' according to many who saw the advance press screenings by Warner Brothers.

Wrist fracture puts Halos' Mathis on DL
Catcher expected to miss four to six weeks
- Abreu reaches rare feat with stolen base
- First rainout in 15 years avoided
- Fuentes expected to return Wednesday
- Rodney adds versatility to Halos' bullpen
ANAHEIM -- The Angels placed catcher Jeff Mathis on the 15-day disabled list with a right wrist fracture on Tuesday, a day after a foul tip hit him above his thumb in the eighth inning of Monday's game.
Mathis, who is expected to miss four to six weeks with the injury, had his hand examined on Tuesday by team physician Lewis Yocum and the injury was announced in the press box about 90 minutes before the Angels' game against the Tigers. The Angels also announced they recalled utility man Robb Quinlan from Triple-A Salt Lake to take Mathis' place on the 25-man roster.
"It's frustrating, it's upsetting, but it's part of the game," Mathis said. "It's a bad break, didn't go my way."
Angels manager Mike Scioscia talked about Mathis' injury before the roster move was announced, but said he watched the replay of the incident and that Mathis' hand was sore on Tuesday.
"I saw the replay and his hand wasn't really in the position it needed to be -- it needed to be behind the glove," Scioscia said. "Jeff blocks the ball as well as anybody in baseball, so it was just a freak thing that his hand was there and in position where it usually isn't."
The injury couldn't have come at a tougher time for Mathis, who is off to his best offensive start of his career. The 27-year-old was batting .324 and had a hit in all 10 of his starts this season.
With Mathis on the DL, it means more playing time for Mike Napoli, who hit 20 home runs in both 2008 and 2009, but has made just four starts this season because of Mathis' hot start. The Angels also didn't need to recall another catcher with third catcher Bobby Wilson on the active roster.
Abreu reaches rare feat with stolen base
ANAHEIM -- Bobby Abreu's stolen base in the fifth inning at Angel Stadium on Tuesday night made him only the sixth player in Major League history and the only active player to steal 350 career bases and hit 250 home runs.
Rickey Henderson (1,406 stolen bases/297 home runs), Joe Morgan (689/268), Barry Bonds (514/762), Bobby Bonds (461/332) and Craig Biggio (414/291) are the others to reach the achievement.
Abreu stole second without a throw from Tigers catcher Gerald Laird with starter Rick Porcello on the mound and Erick Aybar on third base. There were no outs. Abreu scored on a Hideki Matsui double, putting the Angels ahead, 6-0.
First rainout in 15 years avoided
ANAHEIM -- The Angels nearly had their first rainout in 15 years when early showers before Tuesday's game forced both clubs to hit in the batting cages after the grounds crew covered the infield with tarp.
The tarp was removed from the infield once the rain subsided a little more than an hour before the game's scheduled 7:05 p.m. PT start, thereby avoiding the first rainout at Angel Stadium since June 16, 1995.
Angels manager Mike Scioscia still hasn't had a rainout at home in his 11 seasons at the helm but discussed the difficulties of rainouts for a manager.
"When you have a rain delay you're just wondering if you're going get the game in and when you're going start," Scioscia said. "And you're wondering if you're going to lose your starting pitcher after two innings if it rains harder, so there's a some anxiety about whether you are going to play."
Fuentes expected to return Wednesday
ANAHEIM -- Angels closer Brian Fuentes came out of Monday's rehab appearance with Class A Rancho Cucamonga feeling fine and is expected to be activated from the disabled list before Wednesday's game against the Tigers.
Fuentes, who was placed on the 15-day DL retroactive to April 6 with a strain in his middle back, threw a perfect inning with one strikeout in his appearance.
"He feels good so he'll play a little catch and if he feels good after he'll be activated tomorrow," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said.
Fuentes, who led the Majors with 48 saves last season, has made only one appearance for the Angels this year when he earned a save on Opening Day against the Twins.
The Angels announced Tuesday that right-hander Francisco Rodriguez will be optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake to make room for Fuentes on the 25-man roster.
Rodney adds versatility to Halos' bullpen
ANAHEIM -- Angels reliever Fernando Rodney has made the most of his save opportunities this season as he has converted all four chances in 1-2-3 fashion with three strikeouts in four innings pitched.
Rodney, who has served as closer in Brian Fuentes' absence, has converted 44 of his past 45 save chances.
But Tuesday could be his last chance for another save with Fuentes scheduled to be activated from the disabled list before Wednesday's game. Angels manager Mike Scioscia, though, has certainly been impressed with Rodney.
"He's used to that role," Scioscia said. "Fernando is prepared to pitch in the seventh, eighth or ninth inning or whatever we need. So he's been important for our depth."

President Barack Obama
vowed on Monday that the United States would find out who carried
out deadly twin explosions in Boston earlier in the day, and will hold them accountable.
Two explosions hit the Boston Marathon as runners crossed the finish
line on Monday, killing at least two people and wounding at least 23
more on a day when tens of thousands of people pack the streets to
watch one of the world's best known marathons. The Boston Globe said
that more than 100 people had been wounded in the explosions.
"We still do not know who did this or why, and people
shouldn't jump to conclusions before we have all the facts,"
Obama said in a televised statement from the White House. "But make no mistake, we
will get to the bottom of this, and we will find out who did
this, we'll find out why they did this."
Hundreds of thousands of spectators typically line the 26.2 mile (42.19 km) race course, with the heaviest crowds near the finish line. The blasts occurred more than five hours after the start of the race, at a time when most top athletes were off the course but slower amateur marathoners were still running.
The Boston Marathon has been held on Patriots Day, the third Monday of April, since 1897. The event, which starts in Hopkinton, Massachusetts and ends Boston's Copley Square, attracts an estimated half-million spectators and some 20,000 participants every year.

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - Thousands of needy East Tennessee families may not get their food deliveries due to flood damage at the Second Harvest Food Bank warehouse in Knoxville.
The damage has put the brakes on food distribution.
Second Harvest has operated from the same building at 922 Delaware Avenue for nearly two decades. It took only two hours for Monday's severe storms and flash flooding to do extensive damage.
The food bank needs donations to pay for cleanup, to replace freezers and coolers and make needed repairs.
At one point, the warehouse had water two feet high in it. Even the canned goods and non-perishable items are not salvageable.
The Second Harvest staff says the water was so dirty all the items it touched must be disposed of. They don't want rusting cans of food in people's cabinets.
"There's not much we can salvage with what was on the floor of our facility. Yes, the stuff way up is fine, but we have to get to it. We have to get rid of the bad to get to the good," said the food bank's Executive Director Elaine Streno.
She says they have to throw away at least 40 percent of their food. For the next seven days, operations at Second Harvest will be paralyzed by the damage.
"We distribute food to 150,000 people per month so there are going be some hurting families out there because of this situation," Streno explained.
In the Second Harvest parking lot, things were even worse. Vehicles belonging to employees and volunteers were ruined by flood water.
"It's been hard to see something you take ownership of get in this situation. And of course, knowing the work we're going to have to do to get it back in order," Streno said.
According to the food bank's insurance policy, it's covered for up to $500,000 in damages. The concern now centers around whether that money is even enough to get Second Harvest back on track.
Streno says their first priority is getting the electricity turned on.

Salem police have arrested a Keizer man in connection with the murder of Eric P. Davis.
FOX 12 has confirmed Farouk A. Eldabaa, 44, was taken into custody late Wednesday evening.
Detectives would not say how they were tipped off to Eldabaa.
Detectives began their investigation after Davis was found dead in the NORPAC Foods plant parking lot Wednesday morning.
Employees arriving at the plant on Madrona Avenue Southeast found his body at 5 a.m.
"We don't have a lot of homicides in Salem, so it's a little bit of a shock, and for it to happen in a workplace parking lot seems a little unusual," said Ron Gleason, who works a nearby business.
The initial report said the victim appeared to have suffered a gunshot wound, but police wouldn't confirm that information.
FOX 12 has learned Davis was a leader of the Living Hope City Church in Dallas. Many members gathered at the church Wednesday night after learning about his death.
"Eric was always there to make sure things were safe, that the kids were safe, and he had a really good heart," said church member Carol Strauss. "We loved him dearly."
NORPAC Foods released a statement late Wednesday morning. It says:
"NORPAC Foods is deeply saddened and shocked by the apparent homicide of one of our longtime employees. Our thoughts and ongoing support are with this employee's family and close colleagues. NORPAC management is working closely with Salem Police to provide them with full access to any information they need to investigate and solve this crime."
Fox 12 learned that Davis was a registered sex offender in Polk County for crimes he committed in the early 1990s.
Strauss said church members were aware of his criminal history but that he was a changed man. Strauss added that she can't imagine why anyone would want to hurt him.
"He had an awesome sense of the Lord, and his heart was really good. I know he had a past, we all do, but he loved the Lord enough to share that with us," said Strauss. "He was a funny, awesome guy, and we're really going to miss him."
An autopsy was being conducted Wednesday afternoon to determine how Davis was killed.

Miikka Kiprusoff has been a workhorse for the Calgary Flames since arriving in 2003. He has played 70-plus games in six of his seven years in Calgary, including six straight. Thursday, Kiprusoff proved to his former team, the San Jose Sharks, that he is worth much more than the second-round pick they traded him to Calgary by making 34 saves in a 4-3 win, his 300th career victory.
Kiprusoff is the 27th member of the 300-win club, making him the fifth-active player with 300 or more wins (Martin Brodeur, Roberto Luongo, Nikolai Khabibulin and Evgeni Nabokov). Kiprusoff and the Flames relinquished a 2-0 lead, but scored two of the final three goals as Kiprusoff kept the Sharks at bay.
Coincidentally, Kiprusoff's first career win was inside HP Pavilion in 2001 with the Sharks, so his career thus far has seemingly come full circle. Kiprusoff is pleased with his accomplishment, but knows that there is more work to be done.
"It's a nice number," Kiprusoff said to reporters after the game. "Right now it's not that big a deal. It's nice, but we have a job to do here. We're fighting for the playoffs, and we need those wins. But, yeah, it's a good number."

You don't have to worry regarding your dark circles if you are about to leave your home for an event this coming weekend.
This is due to the fact that there are already makeup solutions available for you to employ, which would help you do the magic trick of concealing your circles without the need to wait for results offered by creams.
Although you could also use the creams, it is still better to settle with makeup first if you want immediate results. In other words, if you are in a hurry, you should first cover up your dark circles.
There are various makeup tips that could definitely help you reduce dark circles, especially if you are a working woman who is always on the run and does not sleep well.
In order to give you few of the effective makeup tips in covering your dark circles, here are the following:
- The Tools
You could actually reduce the appearance of your dark circles through the use of foundation, eye shadow, as well as concealer. You should put a concealer on the undereye area.
Then, you should use mineral powder in order to set the concealer over your skin. Make sure to pat the concealer lightly in order to get the right tone of your skin.
- The Eyes
You have to draw attention in the area around your eyes. You must focus on providing your eyes with upper lashes, brow bone, as well as upper eyelid makeup.
This is to put the gaze of people on your eyes alone, and not on the dark circles around it. Make sure to groom your eyes all the time and you should curl your eyelashes every time prior to the application of eye shadow.
This is to keep your eyes looking open. You must only keep the concealer on your lower eyelashes and lower lash line.
- The Casual Look
If you don't want to wear a makeup, which is similar to that of celebrities during an awards night, you could settle with a daytime look. You just have to create a neutral and single light eye shadow in order to do so.
Make sure to select a shade that matches your complexion well, either shimmery or matte in finish. The best choices for your casual look are pale pink, ivory, tan, beige, as well as peach among others.
Then, you should apply mascara to your upper eyelashes and line only the upper portion of your eyelids.
- The Smoky Look
If you still want to give your eyes that smoky look, you could simply wear softer pinks, brown, as well as plums, instead of selecting charcoal and black type of shades. You should prevent gray shade, for it could only emphasize the darkness under your eyes.
You should add darker tones on your lash line, crease, as well as lid. On the other hand, on your upper lashes, you should finish with an evening eye through applying a liner and mascara.
The above makeup tips are applicable to all. They could work well and would definitely give you amazing, instant look.

Very dark brown blackish colour, smelling of roasted malts, chocolate and grapefruit. The taste was very hoppy to start with, dry-ish. Then some chocolates and coffee notes kicked in. The concept of a dark IPA is interesting but I found the mouthfeel of this beer to be a little bit on the thin side. Just like many other Phillips guess, I guess. It's their highest rated beer on BA but I'm not convinced...

Pours a dark brown color with a big tan head that doesn't last but leaves lots of lacing. Aroma of citrusy hops. Taste of roasted malts, grapefruit, and pine. Leaves a slightly bitter aftertaste. Medium-light bodied with a nice smooth mouthfeel. This is a tasty beer.

341ml bottle, at Volo Cafe in T-dot. Much farther away from home base than I thought I'd get to try this, but whatevs.
This beer pours a clear, very dark reddish amber colour, with two fingers of foamy, chunky beige head, which leaves some nice tight webbed lace around the glass in its lazy retreat.
It smells of citrus cream, roasted biscuity caramel malt, a hint of dry coffee grounds, soft milk chocolate, and an oily bar-top nuttiness. The taste is more semi-sweet biscuity, caramel, and toasted bready malt, a further bit of creamed nuttiness, and some decently sassy citrus and pine hops.
The carbonation is moderately dull-edged, and mostly down for a nap, the body a solid medium weight, and quite smooth in its bearing. It has a clean, somewhat smokey, malty, nutty, and slightly citrus-tinged finish.
A pleasant toasted, malt-forward West Coast IPA, one kind of familiar to me thanks to Cannery's limited Wildfire release last fall, this is definitely a nice blackened twist on a solid base IPA. Recommended, if only for a taste of a seemingly burgeoning, cutting edge beer style.

What a great name for a beer, and what a great concept. This stretches over several categories and doesn't really belong in any one style box. They call it an India Dark Ale, and that's really just the start. If only I had the old bottle with the stocking cap (ie. toque) label. This must be a newer design, looks like a Saranac label.
Pours a black color that reminds of a stout or a deep dark porter. Head is an off-white that thins rapidly, but was soapy and bubbly when it was around. Left a good bit of lace.
The aroma is so unique. Grass-laced tire rubber soaked in sweat and seaweed? That's not even close. I can't put my finger on it. Like huffing caramel corn and black licorice while standing in a hop field? I'm stumped. But I have to give it an extra point for originality. I've never smelled anything like this, beer or otherwise. I can't wait to taste this baby!
The flavor is confusing or beguiling, depending on your beer disposition. It is definitely two things all the time: hoppy and smoky. Beyond that I get something different out of it with every sip. Grapes, coffee beans, butterscotch, soil, and even a burnt quality all come to mind. It volleys somewhere between an IPA and a porter. I guess. Leans toward porter, but a weird-ass porter at the very least.
While the mouthfeel is too thin, it somehow still achieves a creaminess (or maybe an oily thing?) that helps carry it through. Again: odd, elusive, and a bit hard to pin down.
One of the strangest and most unique beers I've had so far. Dogfish Head, eat your heart out. So super-glad to have had this one. Phillips is starting to figure up there with Unibroue in terms of cutting-edge Canadian breweries. Congrats to them for creating one weird-ass beer.

Phillips have been brewing very nice West Coast style IPAs. Pleasant brown colour wih mocha head. Grapefruit and dark malt aroma. Smooth taste with grapefruit juice and dark malts, with bitter English finish. 650 ml. is a fair amount to finish, and I would buy his on a regular basis if it was available locally. Just in at Volo.

A - deep ruby red/brown, tall thick tan head lasted forever
S - floral and grapefruit, light fruity sweetness and nutty
T - floral citrus hop kick with a roasted nut malty balance, sweet with a light piney note
M - gentle carbonation, somewhat creamy smooth with a light tangy bitter finish
D - the cascade hop flavour is full but the maltiness and sweetness create a great balance, goes down very smooth, a very exceptional beer

Looks like a very dark brown ale or porter, little light gets through the edges. A thick foamy cream coloured head that leaves plenty of lacing and lasts all the way to the end.
The nose contains a strong smell of citrus hops. One dimensional, but fresh smelling.
Roasted malt taste that becomes more and more pronounced as the beer warms. Long citrus hop finish typical of an IPA. Malt becomes more and more prevelant as the beer warms, but the hops remain more pronounced throughout. An interesting mix, pretty good taste.
Medium body and fair amount of carbonation. Works for this beer. It is an easy drinker, that went well with dinner and was definitely enjoyed.

This was a gift from my beautiful wife whilst in Victoria...a much appreciated pick up!
A- The coloration of this one is of cola and is fairly clear, when put up against a white background. The head is slightly off white, and isn't super thick, but what there is is dense and creamy looking, settling slowly into a patchy layer with a ring around the glass. It's hard to tell how carbonated this brew is as it's too dark, but the lacing is superb, leaving behind an artsy fine patchwork of foam on the side of the glass.
S- There's a fair bit going on here....mocha, coffee beans, dark chocolate are all upfront. The middle smells more of sweet rich roasted malt and the finish is a mixture of wet earth tones and leafy hop cones. There is also some hints of nuts throughout as well...maybe not quite as much as I'd hoped for but doesn't take away from anything. Very nice overall!
T- Wow, the flavors are quite intense upfront! There is a blast of bittering hops and astringent coffee that really hits the back of the throat after the swallow! After a couple of sips, those flavors mellow out a bit and the chocolate and toasted character of the malt shows. The hops on the finish are a mix of the aforementioned fresh leafy note and some Earthiness.
M- This is a smooth brew, with very fine creamy carbonation meeting my palate. As for the body, I'd have to say that this is a little thinner than I expected...I'd put it in between medium and light, but then again, that would help with filling me up! The roasted and bitter characters of this beer really shine through!
O- All around, this is a very fine beer! The alcohol is very well hidden behind all of that flavor, making this very easy to drink several of in a sitting! It's not super filling, and would be an excellent meal brew and I would love to get this again in the future! Great job!

Appearance. Pours a really deep red-brown, almost black. Thick, 2 finger beige head that leaves some lace.
Smell. Roasty grains and grassy hops. A little chocolate in there too.
Taste. Roasty, caramel malt and bitter, grassy hops. Some tangy citrus fruit in the middle. Some lingering, grassy hops.
Overall. Pretty good beer. Nice hops, but not enough balance imo.

Bottle: Poured a deep black color ale with a huge foamy head with some great retention and some lacing. Aroma of medium bitter roasted malt mix with some dry bitter hops. Taste also consists of roasted malt with some bitter dry hops which is not the most interesting combination IMO. Body is about average with some great carbonation. Interesting but not necessarily something I would go for regularly.

Had this one at Volo. I was going through my notes and noticed I never reviewed it on BA. Pours a brownish copper color. Light brown foam with some lacing.
Smells real nice, pine, grapefruit all mixed in with a sweet toasty chocolaty malt.
The hops come out strong on the taste buds too. Pine, citrus, roasted malt. This beer is great and one is hardly enough.

From a 341 ml brown bottle, came in the Hop Box variety pack. Pours out a deep translucent brown, with a thick cap of creamy beige head that retains.
Dry earthy notes on the nose, pine, some chocolate and toasted malt in the background.
Toasty malt and some dry cocoa up front in the flavour, followed quickly by bright pine needles and some citrus rind/pith, with an earthy, woody, herbal finish to it. Like drinking the great outdoors.
Medium-full body, smooth, sometimes slippery texture, with moderate carbonation.
I'd pin this more as an American Brown Ale than anything, but that aside it makes for a very dry offering, and I wouldn't be surprised if some rye was used as well. Very earthy overall.

22oz bottle pours a dark black with just hints of cola brown in the light. A finger or two of head that quickly takes off but leaves a fine film on top of the beer throughout and lacing down the glass.
Smell is initially all IPA. Floral and piney hops mix with a dash of bittering hops. On further sniffing a nice roasted malt comes forth to dance with hints of espresso and chocolate.
The taste is an odd bird - can't really fit it into any category I've had before. An initial bittering is quickly met with a sweet caramel rush, followed by a load of roasted malts and coffee, only to finish with a bitter hops. Hints of flowers and dark cherries add to the mix. Dry, bitter hop finish with active carbonation.
This is really a fairly tasty brew. It suffers from a light-ish body and occasionally from a mix of flavors that don't seem to gel; but on the whole the roastiness helps the dryness of the hops and creates a unique brew worth seeking out.

Part of a gift from my aunt that my brother brought back on a recent trip to their place in Surrey.
Poured from a 355ml. bottle.
Appearance: The body is an earth brown color with red hues when held up to the light. Light mocha head, healthy, thick lacing and has medium retention.
Smell: Strong coffee mixed with hops.
Taste: Cold coffee, some chocolate notes and grapefruit as well.
Mouthfeel: Low bitterness, a bit watery actually though smooth.
Overall: It was ok. It's what cold coffee tastes like. While not bad for flavor, it's not a great thing as a beer because who likes drinking cold coffee? Falls short IMO.

Poured from a 750ml bomber into a pint glass, bottle courtesy of IllNate.
Deep brown on the verge of chesnut with hints of red, and a tan/mocha head. Beer is almost opaque, impressive as an IPA, as this is my first "Cascadian Dark Ale" (the 'Black IPA' for us non-mountain folk). Head fades a bit and leave thick walls of lace and some chunky head. Smell is slightly citrusy, leans a bit towards grapefruit and whatnot. The deep, dark roasted malt really comes through here too, and it's nice to see an interplay of two things I really enjoy. Bits of chocolate and maybe a dash of coffee? Taste is fairly malt forward here, malt hits first and follows the smell in terms of roastiness, chocolate and a bit of caramel-like sweetness. Mid-mouth there's an interesting interaction between the malt and the IPA quality of this beer, big malt body overshadows what I would have thought to have been a more bitter and IPA-like mouthfeel, but that's almost completely absent. A sliver of bitterness is left on the tongue, and the malt prevails. Left with what feels like an average brown ale, to be honest. Mouthfeel is a average, medium to low carbonation and there's good drinkability to this. Note that this bottle is two months past it's bottling date, so that may have something to do with the lack of IPA-quality I had expected, so take this with a grain of salt.

Tasted on two different occassions at Volo. Non-hazy dark brown with some rosy hightlights when put up to the light. Tan foam with great retention and lacing. Much darker than one would expect from a pale ale and looking more like a light porter.
Full of NW hops on the aroma piney and grapefruity.
Initial bitter rush of citrus/pine hop resin is slowed down with some grainy and caramel based malts. Nicely complex enough to keep it honest and non-one-sided.
English pale ale? This one poured like a porter and tasted like it was full of NW hops. You could tell the American influence on this one.
Thick enough to not get boring. Lingering bitterness in the mouth that leaves one a bit dry. Very tasty and worth several. The second best Canadian sampled, with the exception of Katarina.

A- A light khaki head not amounting to much, faintest trace of lacing. Cola brown in color with red highlites.
S- Have to keep the nose in long enough to pick up any hops. Nice roastiness to this, deep dark chocolate and freshly cracked grains.
T- More of the same from the nose. The flavors are mild and the hops even milder. The malt meshes with a slightly bitter flavor at the end, nothing really stands out to me.
M- Medium bodied, assertive carbonation. Definitely not sluggish, remains smooth.
O- It's not a bad beer by any means, but this isn't even close to style. Although it isn't fresh, I drank it before the suggested date.

A: Ruby-black with a creamy, off-white/tan head. Some retention and lace.
S: Dark, bready malt, Pacific-Northwest hops (pine & citrous).
T: PNW HOPS! Very piney, some citrous. A little malt up front (bready and caramel), with a hint of roastyness. Assertive bitterness from the middle 'til the 'bitter' end. The roasted malt really compliments the hop bitterness. Very nice.
M: Light to moderate body and carbonation.
D: Very good.
This stuff is awesome!

341ml brown bottle with twist off cap poured in a pint glass. Bought in a mixer 12 pack from Willow Park in Regina.
The title here says American Black Ale, but it's more of a Brown Ale, and the label calls it a Cascadian Brown Ale.
Brown and a little hazy with red/amber highlights. Beige head is 1/2 inch on the pour and recedes to a thin cap with spots of lacing here and there.
Aroma is mostly hops but with some malt backbone. Citrus and pine mixed with malts.
Kind of a interesting mixture. Brown Ale with a full body and chewy malts mixed with an IPA with american citrusy hops. An interesting style and pretty refreshing. I'd like to see them back off the hops just a tad (maybe different varieties?) to increase the drinkability a little. A solid offering.

Nice dark brown with cream head and good lacing around the glass.
Espresso scents are prominent, good dark malt and molasses notes.
The flavours are the same with a bit of belgian fruit. Slightly bitter from the hops but adds a nice balance.
Easy drinking and at 6.5% you can go through a few glasses.
A good balance between hop and malt here as both take turns grabbing your attention. This is another good beer from Phillips.

'Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1′ Gets PG-13 Rating
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 gets PG-13 rating from the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA).
From ComingSoon.net:
Maybe it isn't that big a surprise to some or most, but it is official that Summit Entertainment's The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1, directed by Bill (Dreamgirls) Condon, has received a rating from the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) of "PG-13," just like the previous three movies.
This rating is based on "disturbing images, violence, sexuality/partial nudity and some thematic elements" according to the MPAA label, so presumably they found a way to film some of the more controversial aspects of Stephenie Meyers' final book in a way that didn't get the movie a deadly R-rating.
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 is released on November 18.
MPAA's PG-13 Rating Definition:
PG-13 — Parents Strongly Cautioned. Some Material May Be Inappropriate For Children Under 13.
'disturbing images' O.o YIKES! ' sexuality/partial nudity' :D YES PLEASE!!
What are your thoughts on the rating?

Director, Auctioneer
With more than 26 years of experience in selling real estate both in Australia and overseas, James has acquired the skills to successfully and confidently operate in every type of real estate climate. Inspired by his sense of integrity, a genuine concern for his client's interests and his ability to deliver results, James, a Director with Marshall White, has been entrusted to handle some of the most significant and prestigious properties to be offered in Victoria. The success he has enjoyed was acknowledged in February, 2014 when James was named Victorian Agent of the Year at the annual ARER awards night.
The record price of $7.61 million he achieved for auctioning the Moss Estate in Brighton in 2005 was surpassed a year later when he sold the Ansett Estate in Mount Eliza for a new Victorian record price of $14.5 million. In 2012, James negotiated the highest priced sale in Hawthorn for a Victorian residence in Kooyongkoot Rd which sold for almost $13 million. He has also established price records for Elwood and Glen Iris.
James enjoys longstanding relationships with an enviable list of clients including Equity Trustees for whom he sells many significant properties throughout Victoria. He is passionate about selling property and strives to give outstanding personal service. While experienced in selling property in every market, James' particular focus is substantial family homes, interesting residences and iconic properties throughout Melbourne.
Never one to be complacent, James is renowned as one of the most innovative industry professionals. His proactive marketing approach, that has kept him at the forefront of the industry, was recognised when James was awarded the ARER Marketing Agent of the Year Award in 2007 and Marshall White Sales Person of the Year in 2009.
Many thanks for the efforts of your agency — particularly yourself and Jason in the sale of our property. Without question, we are delighted with the result achieved and realise a lot of work went on behind the scenes to achieve it.
Alex & Amanda Reid
Sold – 47 Donald Street, Prahran
As you know, I wanted a minimum of fuss and your team ensured this was the case. I was impressed that you did not give unrealistic expectations to either myself or potential buyers. All in all it was a painless experience.
Simon Woods
Sold – 15 Irymple Avenue, Glen Iris
From the outset, you were the right person for the task. Your vast knowledge of the property market, your professional, confident approach was not only what won us over; it was a combination of your warm, gentle nature and the interest and appreciation that you genuinely showed in our home.
Zen Pali
Sold – 41 Swallow Street, Port Melbourne
We have known James Redfern for almost 20 years. James kept in contact over the years but never pushed his services. For our recent sale we considered several agents, with very different approaches, but decided on James. He masterminded in all aspects the sale of our home, from timing to presentation, and made our progress through the sales campaign simple, easy to understand and stress free.
Dr & Mrs Roberts
Sold – 48 MacGregor Street, East Malvern
Just a quick note to thank you for the excellent result on the weekend. I think we had the only 3 bidders in Melbourne! Although I wasn't able to hear the auction, reports have confirmed that you managed it magnificently! I would also like to acknowledge the efforts of James Redfern and his team, who worked tirelessly to achieve such a result.
Drew & Katea Downie
Sold – 6 Glendearg Grove, Malvern
The whole experience was exciting and very rewarding and we very much appreciated your professional friendly approach to us before and on the day.
Sally & Peter Duncan
Purchased 89 Paxton Street, Malvern East
Although we live in England, communication with us was excellent throughout, and we felt fully informed and in touch during the whole process. Our queries & concerns were taken seriously and dealt with appropriately. Nothing was too much bother, and everything was handled efficiently, confidently and easily.
Philip & Helen Osmond
Sold – 96 Hope Street, South Yarra
James & Jason maintained regular contact and implemented innovative & cost effective strategies to ensure that the property was widely promoted & marketed to a large cross-section of the community both locally and overseas. These 2 agents worked extremely hard to achieve the ultimate outcome of a sale, despite having to deal with the property being over-exposed and "stale" due to the inaction of the first group of real estate agents.
Dr Willem van der Merwe
Sold – 3805/1 Freshwater Place, Southbank
We put our property on the market after being in the family for 31 years, which was not an easy decision. I appreciated your regular feedback and professional approach. We were overwhelmed with the competitiveness of the Auction and the final result above the expected reserve, which showed me the correct marketing campaign and team were selected. When next selling a property in the area, you can be assured of receiving a call from me.
Nick Andjelic
Sold – 41 Howard Street, Glen Iris
I am not in the habit of writing letters of thanks for services rendered. However in this case I want to make an exception. Being in the business myself for 40 years I appreciate both positive & negative feedback. In the strongest possible terms both Julie & I would like to thank James Redfern & his team, including the personal assistants for the courtesy, professionalism, honesty & sensible advice about minor problems that seemed major to us at the time.
Warren & Julie Trompf
Sold – 34 Iris Road, Glen Iris
After looking for a property for several months, it was a relief to deal with an estate agent who believes in customer service and not only followed up, but also gave us accurate and reliable advice regarding the property in question.
Tim Stobo
Purchased 64 Kooyong Road, Armadale
May we say James, that you, personally, have been one of the best agents we have dealt with over the past eight months. Always orientated to our particular needs, always extremely helpful and always acting with integrity – something that we valued greatly.
Patricia & Marshia Nash
Purchased 2 Kenilworth Avenue, Glen Iris
James Redfern assisted us during our search for an investment property. He performed property inspections, database searches and provided independent advice on a number of properties including those being sold by other agents. All this was done at no cost.
David Maligin
Purchased 2/677 Toorak Road,
We realised very quickly that we had found a professional team that not only has honesty and rapport with vendors but also buyer, and has emphatically quality to match the two latter parties without fuss.
Anne Wyatt & Bill Kahler
Purchased 6 Glendearg Grove, Malvern
Ann and I would like to thank you for the service you provided during the recent sale of our home in East Malvern. As you are aware, I t can be a very stressful time selling a family home that has been our life for the past 23 years. You and Anthony handled the campaign very well and provided encouraging, yet realistic, feedback throughout the four weeks. As a result, we achieved a result that met our expectations. James, it was good catching up with you again after all these years.
Michael & Ann Keany
Sold 55 Kerferd St, East
What a pleasure it was dealing with yourself and Jason Brinkworth during the recent sale of our property. After 36 years at the same addresses, we found ourselves in utterly unchartered waters having never sold a house before! The professionalism of Marshall White in general and yourself and Jason in particular was so appreciated by us, culminating in us achieving a very good price for our "castle".
Sandy & Don Breen
27 Flowerdale Road, Glen Iris
We were very happy with the result of our auction on 21 Feb 2009. There was a huge crown in attendance and several bidders. The photography of the house and the press advertisements were excellent as was the website listing. We appreciated the regular feedback that James and Jason gave us and also appreciated the notice that we were given before any private inspection. Happy vendors, Thank you!
Leonie Jarrett
Sold – 12 Brownell Rd, Glen Iris
I would like to express my sincere thanks to James for the thoroughly professional and outstanding service provided. I have had the pleasure of both buying a house from James and also selling my house in Toorak with James acting as my appointed agent. I was immediately impressed by his sincere and helpful approach to presenting the house,. He was informative and polite and I appreciated the lack of sales pressure. The entire campaign was managed effectively and professionally by James. We put the house on the market and James provided assistance with all aspects of the campaign including the initial preparation and styling of the house all of which was executed in an extremely tight time frame. Selling a house can be stressful and I greatly appreciated James' willingness to respond, with confidence, to any concerns I expressed during the campaign. James impressed me with his attention to detail, his organisation skills, his experience and his ability.
Joni Benjamin
Sold 16 Royal Crecent, Armadale
Thank you very much for the effort you put into selling our home of 8 years. The result speaks for itself. The price coaxed from the 4 bidders at auction was a relief and a surprise, given the uncertain market. Each question & concern was dealt with promptly and politely and we were carefully led every step of the way. The sales process was less disruptive to our busy lives than we could have ever imagined. We thank you for your consistent and thoughtful service and for chasing up the buyers and keeping them interested in our property.We would be delighted to use your services again in the future and would be happy to recommend you for great service and expertise in Toorak real estate.
Rasa & Stephen Ungar
Vendors 1/4 St Georges Court, Toorak
I wanted to thank you for all your help and assistance in selling our apartment. You have been acting for us professionally for over 10 years and once again you have achieved a very successful property sale for our family. Throughout the campaign you and your team always acted in a professional and efficient manner, especially in keeping us informed at every stage of the campaign. The auction day went extremely well with a very good auctioneer and genuine interest from five bidders. The hammer price was an excellent result which exceeded prior estimates and expectations.
Mrs Ramsden
Vendor 7/34 Edgar St, Glen Iris
I would like to thank you for a terrific campaign and great result. The campaign was run very professionally and smoothly, and the communication was prompt and excellent at all times. Again, thank you, and we look forward to working with you again in the future.
Terry & Sheree Goodall
Vendor 122 Kooyong Rd, Armadale
I wish to thank you both and your team for the outstanding and professional service you undertook resulting in the sale of my house. There is not one issue that I was unhappy about and the whole process went like clockwork thanks to your attention to detail and follow up. I was delighted that a young couple were the buyers – the house will have another life!
Patty Hodder
9 Aitchison Ave, Ashburton
Many thanks to you and your team with the successful sale of my home. The preceding weeks before the auction became a daunting prospect for me however everything fell into place due to your professionalism, constant attention to every detail and keeping me informed with every step of the way.
Margaret Spriggs
Past Vendor 54 Ardrie Road, Malvern East
Sincere thanks for your excellent attention and assistance with the sale of our home. We greatly appreciated your advice & courteous, calm, dignified and reassuring manner before, during and after the auction. At all times the punctuality and reliability of the sales team – yourself and Anthony Reis in particular – allowed for the operation of a seemingly effortless campaign and helped to remove any sense of panic on our part which we may have otherwise experienced. Any small concerns were promptly followed up, and messages conveyed. Importantly, the house was always left secure following inspections. I have greatly appreciated your "keeping in touch" and your genuine interest in my various property concerns and ventures.
Lee Prentice
Past Vendor 81 Caroline St, South Yarra
On behalf of the Melbourne Cricket Club, I would like to thank you and your team at Marshall White for your efforts in selling our two properties in Jolimont Terrace, East Melbourne. We were pleased with the way Marshall White handled the sales process of the properties and the results achieved. The process from start to finish ran smoothly thanks to your professionalism and communication throughout the campaign and on auction day.
Scott Butler – 1/2 Jolimont and 18 Jolimont Tce, East Melbourne
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and Stuart Evans for your active role in satisfactorily completing the sale of our property. Your cool professionalism, organisational skills and helpful suggestions in relation to enhancing the saleability of the property were all greatly appreciated. You maintained regular dialogue and kept me informed of all important developments. I was also extremely impressed with the quality of the photographs and the advertising campaign general. Paul Fildes – 7 Broughton Road, Surrey Hills
This was the very first property I have sold in Australia and, not being familiar with the auction process, I was grateful for your guidance and expert advice along the way. I am sure you are fully aware of what a traumatic experience the sale of a property, that was a family home for 12 years, can be; however, I felt at all times that I had entrusted this responsibility to the right person and one who knew just how to handle the process with sensitivity and complete professionalism. Needless to say, I was overwhelmed by the very good result we obtained at auction and I am sure we would not have reached the same result without your personal involvement. Louis Booth – 10 Robinson Street, Prahran
Based on a previous experience some years ago, it was an easy choice to select James Redfern again to manage the sale of my home. I admired then and continue to admire James' professional approach to the sale process. The significant support offered by Jason and Scott throughout the process was also greatly appreciated. I was constantly updated on progress during the campaign, provided with honest and open feedback, offered support when I inevitably experienced the odd moment of worry/concern, and felt that all three showed genuine interest and endeavour to achieve a good result in a challenging market. Thank you. Helen Tobias – 45 Cairnes Cres, Malvern East
This is just a brief note thanking you for your patience and advice leading up to the sale of my property. A great outcome which only comes with the professional way you both handled the sale. Peter Lovitt – 42 Glendearg Grove, Malvern

MAINE SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT Reporter of Decisions
Docket: Pen-03-199
on Briefs: September 25, 2003
Decided: October 29, 2003
Panel: SAUFLEY, C.J., and CLIFFORD, RUDMAN, DANA, ALEXANDER, and CALKINS, JJ.
[¶1] Benjamin Malo appeals from judgments of conviction entered in the District Court (Newport, Stitham, J.), for operating after suspension (Class E), 29‑A M.R.S.A. § 2412-A (1996 & Supp. 2002), and failure to make a forty‑eight‑hour accident report (Class E), 29-A M.R.S.A. § 2251 (1996 & Supp. 2002). Malo contends that both of his convictions must be vacated because the evidence was not sufficient. We affirm the conviction for operating after suspension, but because there was insufficient evidence that the accident Malo failed to report had occurred on a public way, we vacate the conviction for failure to make a forty-eight-hour accident report and remand to the District Court for the entry of a judgment of acquittal.
[¶2] The evidence at trial was somewhat conflicting, but there was testimony presented that Malo was operating a vehicle in Exeter, and that the vehicle Malo was operating collided with another vehicle that was parked in a private driveway, and further, that Malo did not file an accident report following the collision.
[¶3] We view the evidence in the light most favorable to the State. State v. Turner, 2001 ME 44, ¶ 6, 766 A.2d 1025, 1027. There was testimony establishing Malo's operation of a vehicle on a public way, and that at the time of the operation, Malo's license was under suspension. Such evidence was sufficient for a fact‑finder to rationally find each element of the offense of operating after suspension beyond a reasonable doubt. See State v. Melanson, 2002 ME 145, ¶ 9, 804 A.2d 394, 397.
[¶4] The evidence is insufficient, however, to support a conviction for failure to make a forty‑eight-hour accident report because the State presented no evidence at trial to prove that the accident occurred on a public way.
[¶5] Pursuant to 29-A M.R.S.A. § 2251(5) (1996), "[a]n operator of a vehicle involved in a reportable accident shall, within 48 hours after the accident, make a written report of the accident to the Secretary of State on forms provided by the Secretary of State." A "reportable accident" is one that occurs "on a public way or a place where public traffic may reasonably be anticipated." Id. § 2251(1) (1996 & Supp. 2002). A "public way" is defined as "a way, owned and maintained by the State, a county or a municipality, over which the general public has a right to pass." 29-A M.R.S.A. § 101(59) (1996). Although the statute does not define a "place where public traffic may reasonably be anticipated," the phrase is best defined as "a place open to public access." See Op. Me. Att'y Gen. 80-64. It would include "public and commercial parking areas, and other such places where those who enter are expressly or impliedly invited." Id.
[¶6] It is undisputed that the accident happened in a private driveway. Viewing the evidence most favorably to the State, the distance between the vehicle in the driveway that Malo struck and the roadway was no more than three feet. Although there is a possibility that the Town of Exeter owns the outermost portion of the driveway,[1] the State did not present any evidence that the accident occurred in any place other than on private property. Because, pursuant to section 2251(5), for an accident to be reportable, it must occur on a public way, there is insufficient evidence to support a conviction for failure to make a forty-eight-hour accident report. Because the evidence is insufficient, Malo is entitled to a judgment of acquittal.
The entry is:
Judgment of conviction for operating after suspension is affirmed. Judgment of conviction for failure to make a forty‑eight-hour accident report is vacated, and remanded to the District Court for the entry of a judgment of acquittal.

What is avgcsrvx.exe?
The avgcsrvx.exe process is a part of the Resident Shield component of AVG Antivirus software. The Resident Shield monitors your computer for malware infections.
By default, the size of avgcsrvx.exe file is 687,896 bytes.
Is it safe to terminate avgcsrvx.exe?
No, the avgcsrvx.exe process is an important part of the AVG Antivirus program, without which your AVG protective software may not work properly. If you use AVG Antivirus program, do not terminate this process.
Avgcsrvx.exe – Startup Information
By default, the avgcsrvx.exe process loads automatically every time you boot your PC. Avgcsrvx.exe is an essential startup process and you should not remove it from your startup items list.
Avgcsrvx.exe – Hogging CPU resources during scan
This is a common problem. Avgcsrvx.exe is known to use up to 50%-100% CPU resources when the AVG Antivirus program is running a virus scan on your PC.
To tackle this issue, it is wise to schedule virus scans on your PC at a time when you do not need to use your computer. For instance, you can schedule virus scans late at night, say 1:00 AM. Virus scans take up to 1-2 hours to complete. Also, if you do need to work on your computer when AVG is performing a scan and find you that your PC is slow, you can stop or pause the scan and schedule it later.
Further, you can perform the following maintenance activities to speed up your PC in general:
Does avgcsrvx.exe run only when the AVG Antivirus is performing a virus scan?
No, as avgcsrvx.exe is part of the monitoring component of the AVG Antivirus program, you may find it running even when no virus scan is running on your computer.
Avgcsrvx.exe is hogging CPU resources even when AVG Antivirus program is not running a virus scan
Avgcsrvx.exe should not use a huge amount of system resources when no virus scan is running. If it is doing that, we recommend that you contact AVG for support.
Alternatively, if you find that avgcsrvx.exe is constantly slowing your computer down, or you are getting frequent errors, such as "avgcsrvx.exe encountered a problem", you may want to switch to another security tool, such as Antivirus Plus and StopZilla that are equally efficient but use fewer resources and are less prone to errors.
Two instances of Avgcsrvx.exe is appearing in the Process List – Is something wrong?
No, two instances of avgcsrvx.exe appearing in the process list is common and should not be a cause of concern. More than one instance of avgcsrvx.exe can appear as this process is used for scanning E-mail scanner, Web Shield etc.
Note: To check the current running processes, press Ctrl+Alt+Del, and then click the Processes tab.
Driver Update: Some EXE errors are related to driver problems such as obsolete, outdated or incompatible drivers. A driver update tool is recommended to scan your system for corrupted and outdated drivers and to ensure that all your drivers stay up-to-date.

We were delighted to once again welcome Carolyn Rose Gimian from Halifax who presented a weekend seminar on Making Friends with Yourself: The Power of Mindfulness, which is also the title of the book she is currently compiling and editing by Chogyam Trungpa, due to be released ini 2014. Carolyn's deep understanding of these teachings, based on practice and study over the past 40 years, is a gift, as is her ability to communicate what "making friends with yourself" is all about–with both gentleness and fearlessness.

Questions for Carolyn
These rap songs were composed by a group of six participants during the seminar on Making Friends with Yourself, and performed at the end of the weekend. (This is an edited version.)
Gentleness and Meditation
About our "personal things" and "negative thoughts",
Be gentle with them.
Work on it piece by piece
Gentleness, kiss it goodbye. Just touch and go.
A flower has sun and rain.
Act of meditation is like water and sun
It will "gentle" you.
"I have one flower that's doing really well"
Talk 'bout gentleness; it's liking yourself.
Can't believe could have these thoughts—it's a real 180.
Making friends with myself doesn't mean everything's OK
Things could turn on a dime
But over time
There's a wearing away, an accommodating
Less judging, resentment and dragging myself down.
Just sit with it, let it be,
Softening towards it.
Meditation hones in on thoughts but doesn't change a person
Cultivates gentleness over time.
Have patience.
