CENTER, Texas (AP) - A 7-year-old boy and a man have drowned after the child drove an all-terrain vehicle into an East Texas pond and the adult jumped in the water to try to save the youth.
Shelby County Sheriff Willis Blackwell on Monday identified the victims as 50-year-old Danny Porterfield of Center and a family friend - Carter Amburn of San Augustine.
The ATV accident happened Sunday afternoon near the Porterfield residence. The sheriff says Carter was a friend of Porterfield's grandchild and both youngsters were visiting the home.
A deputy located Carter's body in the water and started CPR. The boy was declared dead at a hospital. Porterfield's body was found several hours later by a dive team.
Center is 170 miles northeast of Houston.

- Great dinner at Wild Horse!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 8/10/2014My wife and I went to dinner here, using a Groupon that was about to expire. The original intent was for a date night, but given the time pressure we ended up bringing our boys, ages 10 and 12. We had a really, nice evening! While they offer kids' selections (pizza, pasta), we splurged and let the boys order from the regular menu. The fried oysters were amazing, as were all three entrees - Salmon, short ribs, steak, and rack of lamb.Special Features:
- Great dinner and cocktailsAlexMDined on 8/2/2014Very consisntently good food. Menu changes often which is nice. Great cocktail and whiskey list. Nice list of reasonably priced wines with many by the glass.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place to eatOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/2/2014A reasonably priced menu and superb friendly service made our dining experience enjoyable. I was surprised there was no free dessert offered for my dad for his 90th birthday though.Special Features:
- What a disappointment!mrssmoliDined on 8/1/2014This used to be an amazing restaurant, now not! Cheese and antipasti plate had 2 pieces of brie, a few pieces of baby asparagus with a rosemary sour cream sauce that was way too strong and then something we could not identify that was absolutely disgusting! After asking the waitress what it was, we find out that it was bluefish pate. What about that says antipasti and why would that not be identified in the menu. She said it was the special. I asked what the difference was with that one and the one from the menu and she could not answer and got flustered. Rack of lamb that was just ok and not very flavorful. Wild rice that also had no flavor and was very watery. Some steak tips so fatty that he could not even cut them with a steak knife.
- ddb6Dined on 8/1/2014Food excellent and the service was prompt and friendly could not have asked for anything moreSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- funkyfoodieDined on 7/31/2014Delicious, great atmosphere, great service. Swordfish was perfectly cooked.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- rdbcompDined on 7/30/2014Lamb was a perfect medium rear and flaverful, short ribs were also very good. This is for a special accasion as it is a little pricy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Wonderful Gallop!OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 7/27/2014There's nothing quite as beautiful as the scene of wild horses as they gallop across the plain...but quite close to that beauty is the menu at this Beverly Restaurant that pays homage to the great moniker The Wild Horse. From the attractive artwork, to the low-lit cozy dining room, and the welcoming bar area, the restaurant is an oasis on the bustling Cabot Street. The menu is wonderful. We had tough time deciding but eventually enjoyed fried oysters, rack of lamb with Moroccan spices, cooked perfectly and delicious, and swordfish with a delicious peach sauce. Will absolutely return. BTW: I list it as "quite" but, it was a Sunday night when I was there...Special Features:
- Favorite Beverly RestaurantCharleneDined on 7/25/2014Wild Horse Cafe has delicious food, interesting drink selection, comfortable dining room seating and a warm and inviting atmosphere. The wait staff is the best around. Choose this restaurant for your next dining out experience and you won't be disappointed!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food Bad serviceSweetPeaDined on 7/20/2014The food was very good, but the service was as slow as could be. Well over two hours from start to finish. The server was just too flighty, didn't know the menue well and didn't offer to go back to the kitchen to get an answer. She was pleasant, but clueless! Examples, didn't know all the salad dressings, didn't know if the salmon could be prepared another way, forgot to ask which sides we wanted, took her for ever between each course to comeback to the table. House and Ceasar salad were very good. Lamb Lollies and Shrimp Taco appetizer were great. Salmon entree very good as well as the braised ribs. Rubarb Crisp was way too watery with almost no crisp.Would go back in hopes of getting a different server.It did seem like others were better.Special Features:
- Food was greatNekatyDined on 7/17/2014Both my husband and I had steak and both were done to perfection. The meat was tender and tasty. This is our second time eating there and have been not been disappointed either time. Highly recommend it.Special Features:
- Food was outstandingfoodie2Dined on 7/17/2014We had a great evening. I love to cook so when we go out, it is important that the food be really good. It is also important that the servers be good at what they do. In this case, they were trying but it was seemed like they were not well-trained. And we waited a long time for our main courses. the table next to us waited a long time for their check.Special Features:
- Great FoodpumpkinDined on 7/13/2014Wild Horse is one of our favorite restaurants due to the great food. Incredibly tasty - even the asparagus had a wonderful smokey flavor to complement the steak. Great service too.Special Features:
- Just OKIshmael2Dined on 7/8/2014Friendly, courteous service. The creme brûlée was excellent. The main meal food was good but not great. The over stuffed chairs may work well in the living room but they are low, soft and uncomfortable to sit in during dinner. We had to change our wine order three times because wines listed on the menu were no longer available or not in stock.
- Excellant for Brunchgazebo3e4Dined on 6/29/2014Nice variety of breakfast and lunch appetizers and entrees. The savory skillet has outstanding flavor. The sweet skillet (apple) sounds like it is also a winner. Bloody Mary has a great combination of horse radish and spices with a big celery stick. Cuban sandwich, duck wings appetizer with Korean sauce & burger dishes are all extraordinary, very tasty and very memorable. So are the fries and home fries - nice flavor, nice salt and nice crunch. Every item - even the fries - is worthy of a trip to the Wild Horse. Very friendly and knowledgable waitress and chef. Very comfortable setting with big plush seats. Easy parking across the street. Go try it; you'll love it and won't be disappointed. We'll be back to try more.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Impromptu dinner after bike rideLuvFarmtoTableDined on 6/28/2014We came upon the Wild Horse by accident and were very happy we did. A decent beer list, imaginative cocktail list, and good food. There weren't a lot of food choices, but the sock-eyed salmon and dips we had were both very good. We would go there again if we were in the area.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Awesome neighborhood placeGrasshopperDined on 6/8/2014What a gem of a place. Warm and inviting with a menu and chef that deliver with an atmosphere that is delightful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice dinner with hubbyKheebsDined on 5/31/2014We had a Gift Certificate.1 The ambiance was perfect, our waitress Ashley was very friendly and super accommodating. The owner was super friendly as well as helpful in helping me find the perfect wine. Our meal consisted of; duck winglets they were actually drumsticks very tasty however over cooked. We both had the steaktips which were over cooked and not very tasty. The wedge salad was delicious, the Brussels sprouts with goat cheese, I had these as my side these were unbelievably delicious. My husband had broccoli and masculine salad that he said were ok. Dessert; apple crisp I'm not sure this was homemade I feel like apples were from a can. Overall I would try another and hope food was a lil better maybe they just had an off night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, but a bit priceyLikeToEatDined on 5/29/2014We are always trying out restaurants and we came across this restaurant using Groupon and looked at the menu and liked what we saw and gave a shot. Well, the food was excellent. Fried oysters appetizers was lightly battered and melted into your mouth with each bite. We both ordered rack of lamb and they were delicious. My wife enjoyed the watermelon martini (their special drink) and their service was attentive, but not intrusive and very friendly. With the Groupon coupon, it was a very good experience. Otherwise, it would have been a bit pricey.Special Features:
- Wouldn't hurry backLynneVIPDined on 5/25/2014It was our first time here and let's just say they didnt give us a reason to hurry back. The food was mediocre and pricey for the quality of the meal. The twice baked potato was like mashed potato in the skin. The grilled broccoli was hard and tasteless. The tuna was a little dry with little sauce with it.
- Sunday of holiday weekendPhilDined on 5/25/2014Slow service initially because not enough staff on hand because we were told no one wanted to work on the Sunday of a holiday weeekend. Once we received service everything was timely. The initial wait was long however and she apologized. The flat bread special app. was good although I would have wanted it with meat but my wife did not. The Morocan seasoning on the pork chops was delicious. The wild salmon was cooked med rare as siggrsted and the spices on top added a lot of flavor. Great meal and the dessert was apple cinnamon crisp for two. It was huge and we enjoyed it except it had a bit too much of the sauce and not enough ice cream.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- delicious food w/ great atmosphereGregDined on 5/18/2014The food at the wildhorse cafe was delicious. Starting with their homemade bread which was thick and nutty served with a fabulous butter and honey. Our appetizer plate had an amazing truffle oil cheese with a grilled portabella and some great crostinis. The entrees were obviously the highlight of the meal, we both got grilled meat with sides which seems like their specialty. My rack of lamb was done perfectly and was unbelievably tender. My girlfriend's tuna was also amazing. They give you 2 fairly large sides which were also very good and somewhat unexpected from an expensive eatery, sometimes expensive places seem to skimp out on serving size.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- not enough choicesLinnyDined on 5/18/2014Excellent service, but the good part of the experience ended there. Very few choices and some food was still frozen in the center. Could use better food preparation.Special Features:
- Food okay/service okay/small menuJellzx6Dined on 5/17/2014Food was good. cooked to order. Portions only okay. Steak tips only came w/ four. For the prices, would have liked a salad with the meal and not have to pay extra. Not very crowded for a nice beautiful Saturday night. Not in the greatest area, so maybe this is why. Service a little slow. Waitress had many tables, it looked like. took a while to take our order.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 5/3/2014Service was great! It was a busy night and the chef atll agreed to make a menu exception. Friendly vibe for the atmosphere. We all had a great time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 160 reviews are from the The Wild Horse Cafe reviews archive.
- Great dinner!ShazamDined on 4/19/2014Went on a Satirday eve, food and service were terrific. Really enjoyed the evening. I think the restaurant changed hands recently and we weren't sure what to expect, but we were extremely pleased to find that the food is even better than before.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A nice experienceWilsonDined on 4/8/2014Th service was very timely, the lamb lollis appetizer was fantastic. The steak tips could've been grilled as opposed to pan seared as they were a little chewy but still delicious, and dessert was fantastic. The atmosphere was warm and felt like almost an entirely different restaurant from the bar side.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GreatJunsieDined on 4/5/2014Went with a group of couples, they were ready before our reserved time which worked out well. Everyone loved there food. We had a great time.Special Features:
- Great Night with Great FriendsGrady180Dined on 4/5/2014Celebrated my wife's 50th birthday party with family and friends. We had 11 people and the Wild Horse was very accommodating. Service was excellent and the food was fantastic. I got the Ahi Tuna cooked rare and it was just delicious. They even allowed us to order a few things off the bar menu which were not on the dinner menu.Special Features:
- Okay food, weak serviceLyt12Dined on 4/4/2014The food was just okay. Fried oyster apps was tasty, although the oysters were tiny. Brussels with my rack of lamb entree were undercooked. Wild rice was a little mushy like it had been cooked in huge portions and left sitting. The t-bone and rack of lamb were fine, but the price was for both entrees was for quantity not quality. Waiter forgot my wine- needed to ask again and that was well after we had finished eating the appetizer. Little attention from the waiter until after we received our entrees.
- Sunday dinnerBirdmanDined on 3/23/2014My wife and I were surprised by the nice atmosphere and food.We want to return and sit at the bar and try the wine list.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- so sopchickieDined on 3/21/2014They butterfly'd the filet and doused it in bbq sauce... its a sin to do that to such a good piece of steak. At the table they sat us in, one of the chairs was like a lounger that belonged in a living room. Definitely inappropriate for dinner - could barely reach the table to eat. When we asked to move, the hostess looked very taken aback and said 'all of our tables have chairs like that' - and didn't move us. Would not recommend this place for anything but a good martini. Those they did right.
- Once Again, Exceeded ExpectationsPaulDined on 3/20/2014This has been my second time dining at this fine establishment, and the food was once again phenomenal! Great service and ambience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing food, tired decorOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/20/2014First time visitors with a Groupon. The person who greeted us was bored and did not really care that we were there. We were given freedom with the menu and everything we ordered was sumptuous. Server was friendly and efficient. They did not have the wine we ordered, but a substitute was offered. The decor is tired and needs a lift. The light over my head did not have a cover and the windows need dressing badly, as the view is sad. Loved the Frank Sinatra era music. The cushy chair I was given had me way too low for the table....next time I will ask for a real chair. Not 100% sure I will go back.Special Features:
- we came back after eatingamandaamaeVIPDined on 3/15/2014we came back after eating here a few years ago, the renovations are nice but the lighting is too bright. the warm dip and short rib taco special were very good.
- disappointedkikiDined on 3/15/2014It is a small restaurant with an open kitchen with separate bar area. As a family we went there to celebrate a nice occasion and unfortunately I was disappointed. The Wild Horse used to be a wonderful place to go to get a great meal, but with the new ownership the food quality has gone down. I got the pork, pork, pork and it was dry , dry , dry. Another in my party got the tuna and it tasted like it had liquid smoke poured over it. This totally ruined the delicate taste of the fish. The chair I sat in was so saggy I needed a pillow so I could at least feel like an adult at the table. Too bad it is not the great dining spot it used to be. On the plus side the wait staff was great and attentive. Drinks were good as was the desert.

Greatest Ever.
I refuse to remember the out of shape, allegedly boorish, sun-glass wearing, Kirby Puckett as he was in later life. I can't blame him for whatever he did, or was alleged to have done. All I know is that when I was growing up, he was my favorite player. He played with an electricity that few could match. He signed autographs for whoever wanted one (including me). I read his autobiography, both the adult version and the kids version (with pictures!) And I will always remember listening on a beautiful night as John Gordon screamed "touch 'em all, Kirby Puckett, touch 'em all" as I jumped up and down and almost soiled myself after game 6. And the joy on Kirby's face in the paper after we won game 7. (I wish I could remember '87, but my memories from that series were tied up with memories of my grandfather who died soon after.) I had different favorite players at different points while Kirby was on the time. I had a brief infatuation with Chili Davis, I enjoyed Shane Mack, and Lombardozzi was also high on my list. But no one ever, ever, compared to Puck. No question, he was the most amazing sports figure in Minnesota history. And for a Minnesota boy, that means he was the greatest of all time.

The start of school is fast approaching, and Family Service Inc. of Billings needs your help to collect gently used clothes for kids in need.
The organization said they normally have hundreds of clothes for kids ahead of the start of the school, but this year, they've come up a bit short.Director Stacy Brown said they've always seen a lot of support from the community in times of need and hope this time it's no different.
"What we'd like is for our community to go through their kids' closets and kinda go through and cull out what they're not going to be able to wear but is still in good shape. And throw it in a bag and bring it down," said Brown.
If you wish to drop off donations yourself, you can bring them to 1824 1st Avenue North, next to Al's Bootery just east of downtown Billings.
The Billings Police Department responded to a call involving a stolen vehicle just after 5:00pm Wednesday.

TMZ executive producer Harvey Levin was in Austin over the weekend to talk about the future of internet and TV and, quite possibly, the merging of these two mediums.
The head of the celebrity news insider predicts in a few years, both will be obsolete unless they combine to create a one-stop shop for those looking for information and entertainment.
Levin went on to say the blending of TV and internet has shown great strides especially when used on TMZ live. He says media creators need to think about this sooner rather than later since it'll be the best way to reach audiences.
"Need to start thinking how to produce for that one box that everybody's gonna have in their living rooms. And, it's going to be a very different experience in 10 years," Levin said.
Levin's no stranger to successful internet endeavors. Just seven months after launching TMZ, the website took the number one spot for entertainment news pages.

Gold Canadian Maple Leafs
|Current Prices
|The Monex Standard
|Atlas Preffered Prices
Atlas 'Preferred' pricing is reserved for Monex Atlas Account Customers. Updated at: September 01, 2014 01:56:01 PM PDT
Monex, the country's leading precious metals investment firm, is pleased to offer gold investors the beautiful, pure gold Canadian Maple Leaf...a legal-tender bullion coin known worldwide for its purity, refinement and beauty.
Since its initial release in 1979 as a pure, 24 karat gold alternative to the 22 karat South African Krugerrand, the only other one troy ounce gold bullion coin available at the time, the gold Maple Leaf has become the standard of quality against which all other bullion coins are measured.
Canadian Maple Leaf gold coins are known and respected throughout the world because of the impeccable standards of quality mandated by the Royal Canadian Mint. The Royal Canadian Mint's insistence upon flawless planchets, the pure gold blanks from which gold coins are struck, has led to an enviable reputation among demanding investors and collectors. Its impeccable quality, pleasing design, and fine gold purity (at ninety-nine point nine-nine percent pure gold, or "four-nines" fine) has made the Canadian Maple leaf one of the preferred gold coins of investors around the world. In fact, the one troy ounce gold Canadian Maple Leaf has been in continuous production longer than any other pure gold bullion coin.
Each gold Maple Leaf coin features the image of Queen Elizabeth the second, along with the denomination and date of issue, on the obverse side...and an image of Canada's national symbol, the maple leaf (from which the coin derives its name), on the reverse side, along with the name of the country and the level of purity of the gold, listed in both English and French.
The Canadian Maple Leaf is currently available from Monex in three different sizes:
The classic one troy ounce coin, which measures 30mm in diameter with a thickness of 2.87mm, makes the coin approximately the same size as an extra thick United States half-dollar. The coin carries a face value of 50 Canadian Dollars. One ounce Canadian Maple Leaf gold coins are offered by Monex in units of 10 one-ounce coins, and are available for both personal delivery and through the exclusive Monex ATLAS program, and the coins make a wonderful addition to any investment portfolio and are also available for IRA investment.
Canadian Maple Leaf coins are also available from Monex in fractional sizes. The quarter-troy-ounce Canadian Maple Leaf coin has a diameter of 20mm, with a thickness of 1.78mm, and a face value of 10 Canadian Dollars. The tenth-ounce gold Maple Leaf has a diameter of 16mm and a thickness of 1.13mm, making it comparable in size to a United States dime, and carries a face value of 5 Canadian Dollars. All fractional gold Canadian Maple Leaf coins are available from Monex for personal delivery only, in units of 20 coins.
In 2007, the Royal Canadian Mint surprised the numismatic world by creating and issuing two very interesting variants of the classic pure gold Maple Leaf one-ounce coin -- the world's largest and purest gold coin ever produced -- a 100 kilogram, or 220 pound, "five-nines" fine (or ninety-nine point nine-nine-nine percent pure gold), one million dollar (Canadian) face value coin (although the gold content was worth over TWO million dollars (U.S.) at the time).
In 2007, the Royal Canadian Mint also began producing a special new "five-nines" fine, one-ounce Gold Maple Leaf with a $200 Canadian face value, the highest face value of any one-ounce legal tender gold bullion coin.
Gold Canadian Maple Leaf coins are internationally recognized, and they are bought and sold anywhere in the world gold is traded...and the government of Canada guarantees the purity, weight and legal tender value of every gold Maple Leaf coin.
With their classical beauty...unsurpassed purity...legal tender status...and backing by the Canadian government...gold Canadian Maple Leaf coins provide investors and collectors with coins that can be both a secure and internationally-recognized addition to a well-diversified investment portfolio.
Call a Monex Account Representative today to discuss how a gold Maple Leaf investment could become part of your investment portfolio...and about the many convenient ways you can purchase your gold Canadian Maple Leaf coins from Monex.
Monex Account Representatives are normally available between 5:30am and 5:30pm Pacific time each Monday through Friday (except national holidays)...and on many weekends.
Give us a call...give our service a try...and compare our prices. You'll see why Monex has been America's trusted name in precious metals...for over 40 years.

Vincent Teo | May 27, 2013 | Comments |
And how brands can tap into this culture of sharing.
Every breakup starts with a letter.
In this recent and rather poignant letter directed at brands, Jeremiah Owyang, a partner at Altimeter group, encapsulated perfectly the disruptive force of change that the collaborative economy would have on brands and traditional businesses.
We've always had committed relationships with brands that we loved and we have bought from them repeatedly for a long time. However, with the dawn of a new generation led by the transparency and openness of technology, the economic pressures to be efficient and a more socially responsibly mindset, more and more consumers are looking to rent, subscribe, and borrow products rather than buying them outright. If they do buy a product, they would ensure that it is sustainable and/or has a great resale value so that they can sell it or rent it out and make money.
The trend is known as collaborative consumption and it has been named as one of Time magazine's 10 ideas that will change the world. The primary notion is that access to something is more important than ownership (i.e., I don't need the CD, I just want the music).
There are many familiar examples of web businesses that have been created out of this sharing economy that spans across all categories - such as hospitality, automobile, finance, and human resources - that have been traditionally dominated by large and established organizations and entrenched brands. The more famous of these include Airbnb , Kickstarter, Netflix, Skillshare, and TaskRabbit.
One of the key reasons is that technology and social media have democratized these traditional businesses and allowed people with a shared interest (supply of product/service and demand for it) to connect together and come into a mutual agreement. For some people, being able to make money from sharing what they own has created a supplementary income that in some instances has proved to be a life-saver. (Source: Fast Company)
What are the key drivers to this shift toward collaborative consumption?
One of the key drivers (and one of my personal beliefs) is the idea championed by Graham Hill that less is more and living an edited life with less stuff makes you a lot happier. There is a certain truth to that, given that a lot of things that you buy sit at home in idle capacity and are underutilized (a power drill, for example, only gets used a grand total of 13 minutes in its entire lifetime). There is a whole new Gen Y culture that centers around sustainability, altruism, environmental concerns, transparency, and a resurgence of trust and community (think about students trading textbooks or sharing music and videos instead of buying).
In addition, there are core economic drivers that include the current state of the global economy, which has brought forth a new form of cost-consciousness. The increasing world population has also put a strain on resources and brought about a surge for sustainable living.
Technology drivers play a huge role and these include social networking platforms that provide connections between people and transparency in the form of their social profiles and reputations. The rise of mobile technologies and the availability of payment systems also help facilitate and drive this marketplace of individuals exchanging goods and services.
Three types of collaborative economies currently exist:
What are the key implications to brands?
Although still in a relatively early stage of adoption, especially in Asia, collaborative consumption will disrupt the way traditional businesses operate.
Brands need to understand that they will slowly be developing a non-exclusive relationship with their consumers and will need to evolve and even change their business models as customers look to rent, borrow, subscribe, co-op, and swap rather than buy.
In a collaborative economy, the most important currency will be trust and reputation and brands need to incorporate reputation management tools or integrate with portable trust scores like TrustCloud to empower users in this new sharing economy.
How can brands tap into this culture of sharing?
Some brands have already started leveraging on this culture by developing business propositions around them. In the car-sharing market, BMW has launched DriveNow, a premium car-sharing venture, as have other brands like Peugeot's MU and Daimler's Car2Go.
Barclay's Cycle Hire Bicycle sharing is another great business initiative that I had the pleasure of seeing in action during a recent trip to London.
In the fashion space, popular online fashion retailer ASOS launched ASOS marketplace to allow customers to sell pre-owned clothes to other discerning users, and Google has started renting out its Chrome books, which makes great business sense for companies with short-term projects that require an influx of temporary workers in need of computers. Walmart is currently considering having store customers deliver packages to online buyers in exchange for discounts on their shopping bills.
Brands have also started leveraging the transparency and immediacy of mobile technology to create platforms that help tap into this collaborative culture. In Singapore, the Rapid Rescue mobile app by the Red Cross helps connect people in need of immediate medical attention to the 12,000 over individuals that are Red Cross-certified first-aiders around the country to provide timely and life-saving first aid.
Business opportunities in the face of disruption
There are many new opportunities in this sharing economy for brands. Sharable.net provides this great infographic on the opportunities available in various key categories based on latent demand and market saturation.
Some unmet opportunities in key categories include renting branded goods instead of buying. Fashion brands could start renting their products like what Rent The Runway and Bag, Borrow, or Steal have. In the finance space, allowing peer-to-peer lending and micro-financing like Kickstarter, KIVA, and The Lending Club. Large human resource and job placement companies could evolve into a space to leverage on people's idle time and skills to fulfill various tasks that don't necessarily result in a full-time job like what TaskRabbit has done to connect these people together.
Courier delivery services such as FedEx could tap on people to help make deliveries that are on-route to their destination via a crowd-powered delivery system called TwedEx, which is currently in concept stage.
Brands need to look at evolving their business strategy and models to adapt to this changing landscape. Many traditional brands that are leaders in their category have been slow to evolve to such disruption and are slowly being overtaken by the speed and agility of tech startups.

Obituary: Marion F. Gange
Date: June 5, 2012
by: Observer Staff
Marion F. Gange, of Venice, formerly of West Haven, Conn., Dayton, Ohio, and Longboat Key, died May 25. She was 90.
Ms. Gange was born Sept. 23, 1912, in West Haven, Conn., the daughter of the late Joseph and Maria Gangi. She attended Yale School of Music in New Haven, Conn. As a talented guitarist and professional musician, she played with the Ina Ray Hutton Orchestra, one of the best-known all-female bands in the mid-1930s. Later, Ms. Gange formed her own trio with Barbara Carroll as a steady pianist.
Ms. Gange's reputation in the musical world continued to grow and led to her selection as the "Gibson Girl" for Gibson guitar's advertising campaign. She accepted the opportunity to bring music to World War II veterans, and her trio became part of one of the first USO hospital units to provide entertainment for veterans.
Knowing the entertainment world well led her to move to Dayton, Ohio, where she produced and directed WHIO TV. She retired to Longboat Key for the beautiful weather and musical contacts in the area.
Ms. Gange was preceded in death by her brothers James, Frank, John, George, Albert and William; and sisters Josephine Loomis, Theresa Williams and Mae Krachenfels.
She is survived by her sister, Jeanette Saggio; and several nieces and nephews.
Burial will take place in New Haven, Conn. Donations may be made in Ms. Gange's name to the Alzheimer's Association in Dayton, Ohio. To send condolences visit farleyfuneralhome.com.

Detroit is far short of the $1.7 billion it needs over the next 10 years to remove abandoned buildings, replace outdated technology and increase public safety to stem the exodus from the city. "What Detroit needed to start with was a reinvestment program," said James Spiotto, managing director of Chapman Strategic Advisors, a municipal finance consultancy.

This is one of the strongest versions of the game, without a doubt, coupling a dynamic character creation system with deeper gameplay.
I will commend EA for not porting over the Xbox 360 version and just adding a fresh coat of paint. They went ahead and added new Blackhand moves, new executions, upgraded graphics, new side missions, and a host of many new features on your way to becoming the Don of NY.
The Godfather: The Don's Edition might be a last-gen retread, but for what it's worth, it's still one of the better titles available for the PS3 right now.
The game experience isn't all that far removed from the Xbox 360 version (to be fair there is a lot of new content that isn't available anywhere but on the PS3), but it's as good a game as any to pick up for PS3 owners starving for some valuable entertainment beyond SCEA's first-party titles.
The Godfather: The Don's Edition doesn't feel next-gen. Even with the new additions, it plays like a PS2 game.
A decent port job that adds enough to keep first time players entertained, but seasoned Godfather vets will probably stay away.
The dominating impression of The Don's Edition is that this is a very lazy PS3 port, with a lame attempt to justify its existence by bolting on Sixaxis functions and throwing in extra content in the form of The Corleone Expansion Pack. [Issue #151, p.91]

OMG how the heck can they rate Godfather 6,9? It should be illegal rating it like that. It really deserves a big golden 10!

May 17, 2011This game does a good job on taking on the best movie of all time with its missions and making sure that you still like to watch the cut scenes that develop the story.

But the graphics are just awful, unless you love the Godfather to pieces or can get it for cheap then just keep the Ps3 version.… Expand

Number of ratings 24 / Average Grade: B- Submit a correction
The class is not hard but you gotta put a lot of time in home work could take many hours and the exams are based on exams from previous semesters which he will provide. not exactly the same exam but similar i got 63 32 and i did okay on the final do the projects on your own need help ask him the only professor that smiles when teaching
The key thing in the class is to do the homework. If you do you will pass. For the exams re-do the homework question that seem tough and try to get old finals. He does curve. And for the final project work on your own. He will give you a -100 if he catches you copying.
Coursework is not difficult but extremely time consuming. Do all homework as he collects them randomly. Present as many homeworks as you can (it boosts your grade). Projects are difficult and does not explain how to use MATLAB. Tests average are relatively low but he there is a huge curve. If you put in the work, you will get a good grade.
One of the toughest class in the ME curriculum. So many methods and iterations. After every exam, i felt very exhausted, my fingers were numb and my calculator ran out of battery. He hands out way too many hws and programing assignments. I had the TA for the lab and for every lab session we had quiz. just prepare to do lot of work.
Whatever you heard about Prof. Ganatos is probably true; a lot of Homework, Hard test, and a huge curve on the grade. The key to getting a good grade is to do all the homework and get a hold of previous exams. Study the previous exams inside and out and your exam will be easy. 3 exam questions are similar to previous exams and a fourth from the
DO THE HOMEWORK. You don't want to cram anything in that class. Leave at least 4 hours a week for homework, and another 2-3 for the weekly project assignment. He is a nice guy, especially if you go to him during office hours.
This class is no joke. Be prepare to put in slot of hours just to at least get a C. He I'd tough but you will learn something from the class.
Good professor.He knows a lot specially matlab. you will hear comments about him of beeing super hard (all of them are true).Do the homeworks,STUDY FROM OLD EXAMS,do your best in the matlab projects(DO NOT COPY FROM OTHER PEOPLE CAUSE HE'LL NOTICE AND TAKE POINTS OUT),go to the matlab tutorings,he curves fairlly.
I like him because he smiles at me.
Prepare to lose your hair!!
I learned a lot in me322. Keep up with the homework assignments and don't be discouraged when it comes to low exam marks. Just do the best you can! He is sometimes a difficult person to speak with unless you ask clear and direct questions but don't get discouraged because he does care about the progress of his students.
Great Teacher! His exams are difficult but he curves a lot.
He is probably the most helpful person in the department. He is very knowledgable in truly every aspect of engineering (teaches numerical methods, orbital mechanics, differential equations and thermodynamics) and his door is pretty much always open to everyone. All his exams are challenging, but doable and he acknowledges effort when he sees it.
Great professor, hard topics and even harder test. At the end he grades fair and I learned more in his class then any other so far.
The class is a tough, all about maths(MATLAB). Exams are crazzzzzzy. I end up with A though. Do the homework regularly and you will be all fine. Pay attention on the project
The exam in this class will be super hard! Less than 3ppl in my class got 60 or higher!. His class is very boring. He will just copy the notes to the board and explain it continuously. You will need to study his notes and do the homeworks to do better in the exams. But he is very helpful when you ask him any ME questions
He gives a lot of notes and a lot of homeworks. Even if you do all of the homeworks there will always be something on the exam that you haven't seen before. Beware!
grad course
this was truly the hardest class you can ever take, its called differential equations for graduate students, i got a 40 on the midterm, 30 on the final, and guess what, i got a B+, ganatos is the best
This guy knows thermodynamics very well. He is the head of the mechanical engineering dept. He is a nice guy, and a very very fair grader. If you are a mechanical engineering major, or interested in thermodynamics this guy is highly recommended. Although, you must study hard.
he is a great professor. i learned alot in his class. you should be on the top of the homework and the class will become indeed easy.

HTC 8X successor release date?
Hey Microsoft Tribe,
The title pretty much says it all. When do you think HTC will release the HTC 8X successor? Do you think HTC's new Windows 8 phone will be like the 8x or as a Windows phone version of the HTC One? I just love the hardware and the form factor. Im not attracted to the huge size of the Lumia 1020 and 920. Heres hoping for a release date soon.

Chester Taylor - #29 - RB
|5' 11"/ 213 lbs.
|River Rouge, MI
|Years played
|2002, 6th round, 35th pick by Ravens
Report: Cardinals sign ex-Bears RB Taylor
Faced with a thin RB corps entering the season, the Cardinals signed recently released veteran RB Chester Taylor on Sunday, according to a league source.
Bears change mind on RB Taylor
RB Chester Taylor, who signed a four-year contract with the Bears in April 2010, was told he was released by the team, then informed he was still on the roster.
Vikings have nine picks in NFL draft
Now that the complete order of the 2011 NFL draft has been determined, the Vikings know where they stand with their picks.
Bears positional analysis: Running backs
This is the second in a series of position-by-position looks at the Bears' personnel entering the 2011 offseason. The series continues with an analysis of Chicago's RB situation.
Five questions with PFW publisher Hub Arkush
This week, Hub says the Pro Bowl voters snubbed Brian Urlacher by not making him a starter and that special-teams coordinator Dave Toub deserves a chance to be a head coach.
Bears 60-second rant: Taylor hasn't been worth the price
RB Chester Taylor's play this season could lead GM Jerry Angelo to consider bringing in some serious competition for the No. 2 role behind Matt Forté in 2011.
Bears players of the week
Devin Hester's 61-yard kickoff return was one of the few bright spots for the Bears in Week 14.
Bears have to hope Taylor saves his best for last
Chicago's offense could use more of a boost from Chester Taylor in the final quarter of the season, especially with the weather becoming more of a factor in games.
60-second rant: Bears need to feed Forté down the stretch
After trying to make it as a pass-first offense earlier in the season, offensive coordinator Mike Martz has shown a greater commitment to handing RB Matt Forté the ball since the Bears' Week Eight bye.
Five questions with PFW publisher Hub Arkush
This week, Hub says he's not ready to call the Bears' defense an elite unit quite yet. He also says that rookie ORT J'Marcus Webb is not the weak link on the offensive line.
Bears fantasy focus
It's hard to imagine Bears RBs Matt Forté and Chester Taylor being very productive against Minnesota, which ranks sixth against the run.
Martz finds right balance against Bills
One of the encouraging developments from the Bears' win over Buffalo is that the running game struggled and Mike Martz didn't give up on it.
Forté a lost cause in Martz's scheme
Bears RB Matt Forté had a perfect opportunity to break out of his funk on Sunday, but for a number of reasons, he wasn't able to do so.
Bears-Bills prediction
Associate editor Dan Parr says the Bears will end their losing streak in Toronto.
Bears' running backs have chance to break loose vs. Bills
If Mike Martz has any interest in appeasing his critics by getting RBs Matt Forté and Chester Taylor more involved — and there's a good chance that he does not — this would be the week to do it.
Taylor was among the inactives for the Cardinals' season opener against the Carolina Panthers.||||||| Taylor signed with the team on Monday and didn't practice until Wednesday.
In a move to add depth to a depleted running corps, the Arizona Cardinals have signed Taylor to a one-year contract.||||||| The Cardinals were waiting for other teams to make roster cuts to find a backup to starter Beanie Wells after promising rookie Ryan Williams went down with a season-ending knee injury. Taylor was released by the Chicago Bears on Saturday.
The Chicago Bears are letting Taylor go, after all.||||||| Agent Ken Sarnoff says the team informed him Saturday that the veteran was being released, bringing a wild episode to an expected end. The Bears began the day with 66 players on their roster and had to get down to 53 by the evening.
Taylor was back practicing with the Chicago Bears on Tuesday, and he took the blame for a misunderstanding that left him thinking he had been cut. The veteran running back's mea culpa is the latest twist in an odd saga that is widely expected to end with the team parting with him. It hasn't happened yet, though.||||||| Taylor left Halas Hall on Monday after meeting with coach Lovie Smith under the impression that he was no longer in the team's plans. Yet there he was Tuesday. "I just took the words the wrong way," Taylor said, referring to his conversation with Smith. "It was just a mistake."
Taylor rushed for 43 yards on 18 carries Sunday in Chicago's 23-6 victory against Carolina. His 18 rushes doubled his previous season-high of nine.||||||| After signing an offseason contract the Bears, Taylor has been used sporadically by offensive coordinator Mike Martz. Taylor is averaging a modest 2.9 yards per carry and has only 37 rushing attempts in five games.

Created: 09/20/2013 6:42 PM
By: Lauren Hansard, KOB Eyewitness News 4
A Roswell couple said they adopted a dog from the city's Animal Control that had a life threatening condition. KOB Eyewitness News 4 went looking for answers and found out it's not the first time this has happened.
Less than a week after Lance Martin and his wife adopted a dog from Animal Control in Roswell, they were faced with a decision.
"It was either put her down or bring her home and just pretty much let her die," said Lance Martin.
Martin said shortly after they brought the dog home, she started having diarrhea and was vomiting constantly.
"So we took her to the vet and he tested her and she had Parvo," said Martin.
Parvo is a virus that is life threatening to animals.
"Parvo is a very, very nasty disease. It's very contagious. It's a slow painful death for an animal if they're not treated or put down. They stop eating, they stop drinking, they get lethargic, they have continuous bloody diarrhea, and they slowly die," said Krystle Smith of the Roswell Humane Society.
At this time, the Roswell Animal Control is not vaccinating incoming animals for Parvovirus. They said they don't have enough money.
Animal Control told KOB 4 if they had the money, they'd test for Parvo.
"I think it would improve the health for sure probably of a good portion of the animals," said Animal Control Officer Andrew Gross.
The Parvovirus can spread quickly to other animals in the home.
"It is contagious, and if you've had a dog in your yard that's had the Parvo disease, the virus will stay within your yard and your grass for up to six months after the dog has been there," said Smith.
"We had to come home, we had to clean the carpets, we had to bleach any room that she was in. We had to pretty much clean the house from top to bottom," said Martin.
Martin said the whole ordeal ended up costing them $360.
Animal Control tells KOB there have been other cases of Parvo at the shelter in the past few months. KOB reviewed Roswell's budget documents and we found Animal Control is getting more funding. KOB is working to find out if those additional dollars will go towards testing or preventing Parvo.

People involved with the Teammates program were honored Thursday night in Lincoln.
"I don't know where I'd be without her," student Sara Miller said.
More than 400 people were at a recognition event at the Lincoln Station. Students who have improved their grades and behavior, and their mentors were honored.
Since 1991, Teammates has served around 7,000 students.
"I'm just really, really proud of us and now we've been together 8 years," Miller said. "And I have a lifelong best friend. That's pretty important to me."
"The friendship that has grown from the time she was a 10-year-old fifth grader at Sheraton to this wonderful, accomplished, highly motivated young woman is truly a source of pride, joy and love for me," mentor Carolin Roehr said.
Tom Osborne and his wife Nancy started the program in 1991. The goal is to help kids graduate and pursue post secondary education. Volunteers become role models, meeting with a student for one hour a week.

At the Arc'teryx Bozeman Ice Climbing Festival we continually push ourselves to offer unique evening presentations and unparalleled opportunities to meet our heroes, create new friendships and change lives.
NEULAND (New Heights) by Ines Papert, presented by Arc'teryx
Thursday, December 12, 2013 – Emerson Crawford Theater, 8:00 pm
Admission: $15 at the door, free to Hyalite clinic participants
During this captivating, multi-media presentation, Ines will lead us on a journey of climbing success, first ascents, enthralling travels and deep friendships, where the question of climbing style is contemplated as much as the longing for newness. Ines is an inspirational athlete and person who, in the last ten years, has been setting new standards for ice/mixed, rock and alpine climbing. She has worked hard to become a four time Ice Climbing World Champion in difficulty. Ines has won three World Cup Overall Titles, and she completed the first M11 ascent by a women of the infamous route, Mission Impossible.
Caught up in recent journeys of the last couple years, we will be lead along in her emotional documentary over the life of a woman of adventure, who's purpose and fulfillment have been found through climbing. With a backdrop of breathtaking photographs and film clips, you will experience what motivates the 39 year old alpinist: An unbridled curiosity, leaving what's familiar behind, discovering new things and pushing personal limits or finding satisfaction in other sports, such as paragliding.
During the winter months, Ines frequently heads north to climb Norway's ice. 2012 brought her, together with a team of climbing friends, to the alpine hub of Romsdalen, laying down a line of first ascents. In the following year of 2013, when she returned, she set out to Senja Island, north of the Artic Circle to explore its possibilities, accomplishing the new route Finnmannen (M9+/WI7 clean, 400m). Over the years, Ines has grown from a competitive sport climber and four-time world champion ice climber into the successful rock and ice climber and accomplished expedition alpinist she is today. Join Ines and take a 90 minute personal journey with her and discover Neuland!
Dave McLeod asks, What Are You Afraid Of?
Friday, December 13, 2013 – Emerson Crawford Theater, 8:00 pm
Admission: $15 at the door, free to Hyalite clinic participants
Dave MacLeod is known for repeating and putting up the hardest and boldest traditional climbs in the world. Based in the highlands of Scotland and his most famous new routes are The Longhope Route on Orkney, Echo Wall on Ben Nevis and Rhapsody (E11) on Dumbarton Rock. Many of these trad routes have very little protection, Echo Wall for example having an unprotected crux and 14b standard climbing. But he also climbs 9a sport routes, boulders V15, has free-soloed 14a and has opened some of the world's hardest winter routes. He is an MSc in sport and exercise science and his book "9 out of 10 Climbers Make the Same Mistakes" has become one of the world's best selling climbing improvement books. He'll be talking to us about some of his latest adventures and projects from the wild cliffs of the Scottish highlands to the north face of the Eiger.

Want to know what KSU is pimping around the country during Realignmentpalooza? I'm currently working with a company that is interested in the Flint Hills region and they asked how KState could fit into their decision making process. Wanting the most up to date numbers and info I called the Kirk's office and asked if they had updated their research gist sheet. They did, just recently.
Free business tip of the day: This is the same sheet used by the Chamber and EDC, but it never hurts to make someone who controls access to powerful people feel useful and needed. I say this not only to make you more successful in life, but to let you know this is public info. My loose lips are sinking no ships.
I wasn't told this was included in any packets that might have gone out electric or otherwise. Read it and decide if you would include it if you were trying to not get left out in the cold. If your University (yeah I see you pokin' around) has a similar gist sheet specific to just research, let's see it. Text below is the gist.
Kansas State University - Bioscience & Research Powerhouse
Kansas State University, continues to expand its already formidable presence in animal health, food safety, food security, biosecurity research and engineering. Manhattan has been named as the site for the National Bio and Agro-Defense Facility (NBAF), run by the Department of Homeland Security. The $760 million project will employ over 450 scientists and researchers with an annual research budget of $2.9 billion and generate $3.6 billion in local private sector economic impact during its first 10 years of operation.
Even before the arrival of NBAF, more than 160 K-Staters are involved in food safety and security and animal health research, with projects tackling issues in plant health, animal nutrition, infectious disease and public health. In the 2010 fiscal year the university's funding base for research alone was over $220 million.
In the last 25 years, K-State ranks sixth among all 2,400 public and private universities in the U.S. for the number of Rhodes, Marshall, Truman, Goldwater and Udall scholars produced. They are first among the nation's 500 public universities.
Manhattan is also on part of the "Animal Health Corridor" that extends east into Missouri. Nearly one-third of the $15 billion global market in animal care services and products are researched and produced there. It includes more than 125 animal health organizations (37 of which are global leaders). Major bioscience and research initiatives in Manhattan include:
ABADRU - the Arthropod Bourne Animal Disease Research Unit conducts research on the diagnosis and control of livestock diseases that are transmitted by arthropods (i.e. insects, ticks and spiders). ABADRU is part of K-State's Center for Grain and Animal Health Research (CGAHR).
CEEZAD - the Center of Excellence for Emerging and Zoonotic Animal Diseases works to enhance the capability of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to develop "state of the art" countermeasures for high priority emerging and zoonotic animal diseases. This includes vaccines, detection, and epidemiology/modeling initiatives.
Biosecurity Research Institute -- a $58 million federal project ensuring protection of the nation's food supply. In 2008 the BRI received $1.5 million from the Kansas Bioscience Authority to add high-end video capabilities to the Institute's educational infrastructure, and was the first facility in the nation to host the National Biosafety and Biocontainment Training Program's Biosafety and Biocontainment curriculum.
Kansas State University Grain Science Complex -- the first professional institute in the U.S. to provide technical training in support of market development activities for U.S. grains and soybeans. Agricultural and business courses are taught to students from around the globe.
NISTAC (National Institute For Strategic Technology Acquisition and Commercialization) --a not-for-profit organization focusing on technology transfer and commercialization of over 1,100 patents donated by Fortune 500 and technology companies. One example of this commercialization process is NanoScale Corporation, which develops and commercializes NanoActive materials and products such as FAST-ACT, a chemical hazard containment and neutralization system. Hazardous spills can be contained, neutralized and safely removed.
General Electric Aviation - in 2007 General Electric Aviation selected Kansas State University for a University Development Center to be located in Manhattan. Work performed at the site includes software development, verification and validation, mechanical design and hardware design. This will result in over 40 engineering jobs within the next few years.
Bioprocessing and Industrial Value Added Program (BIVAP) -- fosters research focused on turning Kansas crops into value-added products and testing cutting-edge processes used to produce new grain-based food and non-food products. This includes everything from biodegradable shell casings to disposable knives and forks made out of grain.
Grain Marketing and Production Research Center - the USDA's main facility for conducting research on measuring and controlling the quality of cereal grains throughout the grain industry. Major initiatives include study of wind erosion, ensuring grain quality and safety, and control of insect pests in the food supply.
Heartland Plant Innovations for Wheat Research - Manhattan is home to the Kansas Association of Wheat Growers, Kansas Wheat Commission. HPI, a $25 million partnership with the Kansas Bioscience Authority, develops and commercializes new genetic traits for wheat, sorghum and native plants.
Animal Vaccines -- Kansas State is an acknowledged leader in the development of animal vaccines, such as those that combat West Nile virus. This base of technologies promises to grow even more under the Kansas Economic Growth Act (KEGA). Under KEGA, funding support for bioscience research at Kansas State will continue at a strong pace.
Terry C. Johnson Center for Basic Cancer Research - located on the K-State campus, the Center's mission is: "...to further the understanding of cancers - thereby leading to improved methods of treatment - by continuously advancing research and enhancing graduate and undergraduate education and training programs, meanwhile promoting public awareness and prevention through community outreach."
Quality of Life / Accolades -- Manhattan is the focal point for trade, service and health care sectors in an eight-county region. In the last ten years Manhattan's retail sales have increased 50% to a pace of $1 billion annually. Grand Mere is home to commercial and residential development, as well as Colbert Hills, regarded as the best public golf course in the state. A $200 million Downtown Redevelopment project is increasing Manhattan's retail presence. Manhattan is in Riley County, cited by a 2009 Associated Press study as the "Least Economically Stressed County in the U.S. -over 25,000 Population."
Kansas State University regularly makes lists of best bargains among public colleges, and the community is receiving accolades as well:
- # 1 Best Small Community in U.S. for Business and Careers (Forbes, 2011)
- # 2 Metro for Economic Growth Potential (Business Facilities, 2010)
- "100 Best Places to Live" (RelocateAmerica, 2009).
- Manhattan High School - top 5% of high schools in the U.S. (Newsweek, 2009)
- Money Magazine cited Manhattan a community with one of the 25 Best Commuting Times from its "Best Places to Live Index (2008)
- "Ten Best Places to Retire Young" (CNNMoney.com, 2007)
- Where to Retire Magazine listed Manhattan as one of "Eight Midwestern Retirement Havens" (2007)
- Sports Illustrated.com named Manhattan High School the top athletic program in the state of Kansas (2007)
- Bizjournals.com rated Manhattan # 23 out of 577 communities in the country with populations under 100,000 (2006)
Manhattan represents the best of all worlds: a dynamic Big 12 college atmosphere, top research facilities, and an appealing living environment that is winning notice all over the country.

Ideas & Trends; Frame by Frame, a Monstrosity Dismantled
By PETER EDIDIN
Published: April 17, 2005
''THE Protocols of the Elders of Zion,'' which the Encyclopedia Britannica calls a ''classic of anti-Semitism,'' turns 100 this year. It is one of the most successful pieces of conspiracy propaganda ever written.
That success is puzzling. First, it is a preposterous work, purporting to reveal a conspiracy, hatched at the World Zionist Congress in 1897, calling for Jews to join with Freemasons in destroying Christianity and ruling a global state. Second, the Protocols have repeatedly been exposed as a fraud, created for the Russian secret police by a professional propagandist who plagiarized a French satire about Napoleon III.
Nevertheless, the Protocols have proved themselves useful to history's monstrous figures. In Russia, the ultraconservative Black Hundreds used them to help lay the blame for Russia's humiliation in the Russo-Japanese War, which ended in 1905 (the year the Protocols were published in book form), on the Jews. This helped foment the murderous pogroms of the period. The Protocols also figured prominently in Hitler's ''Mein Kampf,'' as they did in the worldview of the Ku Klux Klan. Today, they are constantly referred to in the Middle East and are widely read in Japan and elsewhere.
Next month, a new effort will be made to undermine their credibility -- the publication of ''The Plot: The Secret Story of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion'' (W.W. Norton). The book is the final work of Will Eisner, the eminent illustrator and writer who created ''The Spirit'' comic strip in 1940 and ''A Contract With God,'' widely considered the first graphic novel, in 1978. Mr. Eisner, who died in January at 87, completed ''The Plot'' in the last month of his life. It mixes comic-style dramatizations from the lives of those with roles in the Protocols' history, and quotations from actual documents. It is amply footnoted. The aim is to show, authoritatively, how the Protocols were produced, how they have been used and how journalists and historians have exposed them.
''The Plot'' was important to its creator -- himself Jewish and a child of refugees. His hope, said his widow, Ann, in an interview, was that his comic-style history ''would reach people the scholarly work could not.'' He ''wanted ordinary people to be able to understand that the Protocols are a forgery.'' PETER EDIDIN

Hi all,
I have a problem with N3650 keyboard. I've read many posts about it, but no one of it helps me to resolve the problem. I do not have N3650 device.
My application uses all the standard keys (0-9, * and #) and must recognize which key has been pressed by the user.
I use both keyCode and getGameAction(keyCode). here the code:
protected void keyPressed(int keyCode) {
int action = canvas.getGameAction(keyCode);
oldCommand = commandPlayer;
if (action==canvas.FIRE||keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM5) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.FIRE;
else if (action==canvas.LEFT || keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM4) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVELEFT;
else if (action==canvas.RIGHT||keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM6) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVERIGHT;
else if (action==canvas.UP||keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM2) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEUP;
else if (action==canvas.DOWN||keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM8) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEDOWN;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM1) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEUPLEFT;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM3) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEUPRIGHT;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM7) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEDOWNLEFT;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM9) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.MOVEDOWNRIGHT;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_NUM0) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.ALTFIRE;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_STAR) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.STAR;
else if (keyCode==canvas.KEY_POUND) commandPlayer=MiaMIDlet.POUND;
}//end keyPressed
This method runs in many devices (all Nokia s40 and s60, Motorola, Sonyericsson, standard wkt emulator and so on) but not on N3650. This because it returns different keyCode numbers, I think.
I've noticed that gameActions doesn't cover all the keys, and it iterprets the key values according to the device type. I.e.: in nokia emulator, GAME_A, GAME_B, GAME_C and GAME_D returns when I press 7, 9, * and # keys; in standard emulators, they returns for 1, 3, 7, 9 keys.
Here my debug for standard emu:
[1] - keyPressed(keyCode=49 action=9)
[2] - keyPressed(keyCode=50 action=1)
[3] - keyPressed(keyCode=51 action=10)
[4] - keyPressed(keyCode=52 action=2)
[5] - keyPressed(keyCode=53 action=8)
[6] - keyPressed(keyCode=54 action=5)
[7] - keyPressed(keyCode=55 action=11)
[8] - keyPressed(keyCode=56 action=6)
[9] - keyPressed(keyCode=57 action=12)
[0] - keyPressed(keyCode=48 action=0)[*] - keyPressed(keyCode=42 action=0)
[#] - keyPressed(keyCode=35 action=0)
here the debug for Nokia 7210 emu:
[1] - keyPressed(keyCode=49 action=0)
[2] - keyPressed(keyCode=50 action=1)
[3] - keyPressed(keyCode=51 action=0)
[4] - keyPressed(keyCode=52 action=2)
[5] - keyPressed(keyCode=53 action=8)
[6] - keyPressed(keyCode=54 action=5)
[7] - keyPressed(keyCode=55 action=9)
[8] - keyPressed(keyCode=56 action=6)
[9] - keyPressed(keyCode=57 action=10)
[0] - keyPressed(keyCode=48 action=0)[*] - keyPressed(keyCode=42 action=11)
[#] - keyPressed(keyCode=35 action=12)
The DEBUG CODE I've used:
System.out.println("keyPressed(keyCode="+keyCode+" action="+Canvas.getGameAction(keyCode)+")");
So, gameActions:
1) excludes 2 keys
2) returns different values according to the device.
What can I do? I'm about to test this application with java verified.. It runs well on all the phones I've tested and I decided to develop a special version for 3650 (and 3660?) to solve the problem.
So, if anyone has a 3650 model, and some time to spend for me, can please do the test using my DEBUG CODE in keyPressed function of any kind of application, and posts its results?
I think I need to know keyCodes of 3650 and test its value (not excellent, but working). Finally I hope this post helps people with the same problem.
Thank you in advance

---- — Tossing a rugby ball, Andover High School senior Sam Kefferstan was happy to join youth center supporters as they gear up for the annual telethon to raise money for the project.
A rugby player, he knew there was no rugby team at AHS. So, he and other teen rugby players approached Andover Youth Services for help a few years back. Now, there is an AYS-supported rugby team in town and Kefferstan is a proud team member.
"If not for AYS, there would be no rugby team. We went to them for support and they were great," Kefferstan said.
AYS helped get a schedule and fields for rugby games and practices.
AYS has helped start or restart other teams, including lacrosse, wresting and Ultimate frisbee and a variety of other programs from the Keep It Wild fashion show for young designers to a skate park where dramatic performances and a Christmas tree lot are sometimes held.
Kefferstan was among some 50 teens who turned out Monday, March 11, after school at the future site of the Cormier Family Youth Center behind Doherty Middle School. The teens represented various AYS programs, including rugby, lacrosse and Ultimate Frisbee. They gathered to get the word out about the two-day AYS Telethon fundraiser, which starts tonight, Thursday, March 14 (see sidebar).
Many AHS seniors were in the crowd and said they are thrilled to be graduating in the same year as the new youth center could break ground. Groundbreaking is scheduled for the summer, assuming enough money is raised and two votes are approved at Town Meeting. The teens may be too old to use the youth center by the time it is built, but they wanted to support the "little kids of today who will use it," said Bryan Sutherland, another AHS senior.
AYS Director Bill Fahey hopes this year is his last telethon, which has been held annually for years.
"Our theme is the finish line. We are so close to that finish line...it's been a long time," Fahey said.
It's been 20 years of dreaming, but not giving up, he said. AYS pledged to raise $2.2 million for the new youth center and is about $200,000 short, Fahey said. He hopes the telethon fundraiser brings in $100,000 to $120,000.
"Andover is generous, always has been. We can do this," Fahey said.
As usual, telethon talent includes performances by Mr. AHS contestants, town and high school sports teams, dance troupes, choirs, bands, dancers and a wing-eating contest. Performances are given as pledges are called in.
Special guest hosts - town officials, local business owners, Andover High School coaches - will help host the event.
AHS basketball Dave Fazio will be there as he is a strong AYS supporter.
"It's been a long time for Billy and I support him,"Fazio said. "This youth center will keep kids busy and they won't be hanging around doing nothing...we need this."
THE FINISH LINE TELETHON :WHAT: Andover Youth Foundation and Andover Youth Services will host the AYS Telethon fundraiser. WHEN: Tonight, Thursday, March 14, starting at 7 p.m. and tomorrow, Friday, March 15, starting at 7 p.m. TO DONATE MONEY: Watch and call 978-470-0698 or 978-470-1847 to make a donation live on the Telethon.

Proceeds from the biannual event benefit EASI, the Equines Assisting Special Individuals therapeutic horseback riding program.
Melissa Akins, an EASI volunteer and ride organizer, said a similar event in October involved more than 170 bikers and raised $10,000 for the program.
"We basically try to pay the barn's bills so it can stay open and continue helping children," Akins said.
