Hello everyone,
I have a question. I am making a tests with articulate storyline and I create a variable (for example "Variable1") but I would like taking the value to put it in database. I exported/published on WEB (html and so on.) or LMS but I do not see the variable "Variable1" in any file. I need to see Variable1 to put the value in a database.
Anyone know where I could find the variable "Variable1"? I have a data.swf, frame.js, frame.swf, frame.xml, story.js, story.html files and so on, but, I do not see the variable's name in any file.
Thank you
PD: Sorry for my English!

Prevalence of Vitamin D Insufficiency in Brazilian AdolescentsPeters B.S.E. · dos Santos L.C. · Fisberg M. · Wood R.J. · Martini L.A.
aNutrition Department, School of Public Health, University of São Paulo, São Paulo, bNursing School, Minas Gerais Federal University, Belo Horizonte, and cPediatrics Division, São Paulo Federal University, São Paulo, Brazil; dMineral Bioavailability Laboratory, Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging, Tufts University, Boston, Mass., USA
Background/Aims: Cutaneous sun exposure and dietary vitamin D intake are important determinants of vitamin D status. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the vitamin D status of a group of healthy adolescent students living in Brazil. Methods: One hundred and thirty-six adolescents, 64 boys and 72 girls, aged 16–20 years old, living in a rural town in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, participated in this study. Results: The mean dietary vitamin D intake was 140 (120–156) IU/day [3.5 (3.0–3.9) μg/day]. Only 14.9% of the students met the daily adequate intake recommendation of vitamin D. Only 27.9% practice physical activity outdoors and 17.6% of the adolescents apply sunscreen daily. The mean 25(OH)D concentration was 73.0 (22.0) nmol/l [29.2 (8.8) ng/ml]. Vitamin D insufficiency was observed in 60% of adolescents. Conclusions: The present study suggests that even in a sunny climate like Brazil the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency in adolescents is high. Most likely this is due to low intakes of vitamin D in this group. Due to the limited extent of natural dietary sources of vitamin D, a policy of vitamin D food fortification should be considered in the future, and in the meantime greater use of vitamin D supplements in this population group should be encouraged to provide the increased amounts of this essential nutrient for optimal health.

The Colorado Drug Rehab state page provides the reader with a quick overview of issues relating to drug and alcohol addiction and CO drug rehab centers.
It should be noted that these pages are not intended as an academic reference. The data collected is from State and Federal sources.
According to the 2009 statistics, 50,198 individuals entered addiction treatment for alcohol as a primary substance of abuse with an additional 17,125 people who were admitted for alcohol abuse combined with a secondary drug.
80% of all those who entered addiction treatment for primary alcoholism were men and 85% were white. The largest age demographic for alcohol abuse was among the 46-50 year olds.
In the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, Colorado had 88,068 people admitted for addiction treatment in 2009. Of that number, 75.8 % were males and 24.2 % were females.
There were 443 drug and alcohol rehabs in Colorado during 2006. Unlike other states, since 2002 the number of addiction treatment facilities has increased. 68 facilities offered residential care while only 11 facilities offered opioid treatment programs.
Alcohol only admissions have decreased from 69% to 63% from 1992 to 2006, but drug-only admissions during that same time increased from 7% to 16%.
Unmet treatment needs have stayed above the national average for all ages; however, there is a greater need for treatment beds among those aged 26-30.
Colorado generally is ranked among those states with rates of abuse of alcohol and drugs that are higher than the national average. In 2006, it ranked among the 10 highest in the country for all age categories.
Over the last twenty years, admissions for marijuana, alcohol, and cocaine have remained constant.

Vivienne Westwood Men's Ready-to-Wear 2009 Fall Collection
Vivienne Westwood takes things to the extreme with her Men's Fall 2009 Collection. Vivienne Westwood is an English fashion designer, responsible for bringing modern punk and cutting edge fashion into the mainstream. Her designs are usually shocking by mixing traditional elements of English design with punk style gears. In this collection, she uses a very wide range of colors with floral and plaid patterns. Although we would probably never go out in public dressed like the models on the runway, we do spot some nice items in this collection.

Help us make marijuana legalization a reality in Rhode Island by signing our petition in support of the Marijuana Regulation, Control, and Taxation Act.
Not from URI, or want to do more to help? Use this form to contact your local legislator today.
Rhode Island's General Assembly recently passed a ban on "synthetic marijuana" products, which includes products such as "K2" or "Spice". While it's puzzling that the General Assembly is ignoring the fact that these products existence is simply yet another negative effect of marijuana prohibition, something Attorney General Peter Kilmartin said is even more puzzling:
"Synthetic drugs are the new frontier in the war on drugs and we must provide law enforcement with the tools to effectively prosecute those who manufacture, distribute and possess the drugs and chemical compounds." [source]
Apparently, nobody has told Kilmartin that we're no longer supposed to be waging "war" on drugs. Gil Kerlikowske, current head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy, claims the term "War on Drugs" is counterproductive, and that we should putting emphasis on treatment of drug addiction, rather than wasting time declaring war on inanimate objects. Unfortunately, as Rhode Island continues to struggle with high levels of drug abuse, both the state and federal governments rather spend millions of dollars a year on law enforcement efforts instead of education and treatment. Obama's 2014 budgets proposes 58% of the federal drug budget to be used on law enforcement efforts, showing that the change in rhetoric hasn't resulted in a change in tactics.
URI Hempfest is our annual event promoting cannabis law reform. The event is a music festival on URI's quad, featuring live bands, speakers, vendors and more! This year's event will be on Saturday, April 20th from 3-11pm. Check out the facebook event pagefor more details.
Presented by WRIU 90.3FM
Also featuring Vendors, Speakers, Glassblowing, a silent auction,and more!
Our first meeting of the semester is TONIGHT at 7PM in Room 354 of Memorial Union. We'll be talking Hempfest updates, other plans for spring events, and some new developments in the RI legalization effort. Hope to see you there!.
Hey Everyone,
Welcome back! Looking forward to another awesome year with SSDP. Here's some news for the New Year.
Good luck this semester and see you soon,
This election season, voters in two states, Washington and Colorado, decided to legalize the recreational use of cannabis. These were not spontaneous events, and these votes weren't decided by your stereotypical couch-locked stoner. In fact in Colorado, votes in favor of legalizing marijuana outnumbered those for President Obama, who won the state, clearly showing that those who support legalizing cannabis are just those who are just looking to "get high." In fact, more and more average Americans are waking up the deeply disturbing effects that marijuana prohibition has had on our country. Just a few weeks ago, Indiana state Police Chief Paul Whitesell publicly called for the end of marijuana prohibition, saying if it was up to him, he'd tax and regulate the substance.
Despite the rhetoric that the war on marijuana is protecting our children, marijuana use amongst teens is still alarmingly high. That being said, states that have decided to implement medical marijuana programs have seen no negative impact in teen use rates. In fact, a study right here in Rhode Island showed that this state's medical marijuana program led to no increase in use among teens. Similar studies have shown an actual decrease in teen use following the regulation of marijuana, showing that regulating the drug makes it harder for teens to get their hands on it. It's simple logic, drug dealers don't typically ask for I.D. Many teenagers, in fact, report that alcohol is much more difficult to obtain than cannabis, despite alcohol being a legal substance.
While legalizing marijuana in order to protect children may seem paradoxical to some at first, it's clear that our current tactics of criminalizing use simply are not working. By legalizing marijuana, we can tax adult recreational use (which is clearly already occurring) while protecting children through sensible regulation which requires proper I.D, and strict penalties for those who sell marijuana to minors. In a future with legal cannabis, teens caught with the substance wouldn't be sucked into the criminal justice system. Instead, teens would receive treatment for potential drug problems, while the registered store or individual responsible for teen sales could be brought to justice. Furthermore, the tax revenue made from legal cannabis, combined with the freeing of funds now used to arrest and prosecute marijuana users, could be used to help pay for the much underfunded programs that seek to help prevent and treat teen drug abuse.
A growing number of people are now speaking out about the failures of the War on Drugs. Last friday, a documentary was released on youtube, called Breaking the Taboo. Narrated by Morgan Freeman and featuring several current and former heads of state, including Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, the film highlights how the War on Drugs and criminalizing drug possession has failed to reduce global drug use. The film also discusses how the Netherlands has less cannabis use than surrounding European countries, even though the dutch have de-facto legalization, where cannabis is sold to adults in tightly regulated coffee shops.
Many so called prevention organizations refuse to listen to the growing amount of criticism towards our nation's cannabis laws. They think that more taxpayer money and harsher treatment of adult smokers will someday magically lead to an end of recreational cannabis use. The reality of their rhetoric is they focus on frightening parents who have honest concerns for their children, and they stay clear from discussing the nuances of drug policy, because they realize their arguments have little logical merit.
A common argument against regulation is that legal drugs like alcohol and tobacco cause enough damage to our teens, and that we shouldn't add another drug to that list. This claim fails to acknowledge, however, that cannabis is less addictive than both of those substances, and chronic marijuana use has a substantially smaller health impact than abuse of legal drugs. Not to mention that both states that recently legalized dedicated a certain percentage of tax revenue to drug prevention and treatment, allowing for funding of programs designed to allow teens the education to make the right choices about all drugs.
Another common argument from prohibitionists is that stoned drivers will wreak havoc following legalization, but driving while high will remain as illegal then as it is now. Regulation would allow police officers to focus more attention on intoxicated drivers anyways. We hardly blame alcohol companies for drunk driving, so why we should blame an inanimate substance rather than the irresponsible user who chooses to get behind the wheel?
Both of these arguments also rely on the fallacy that legalization will cause a dramatic increase in marijuana use. However, it's clear that despite the current laws, the majority of people who have the desire to use cannabis recreationally are already doing so. Legalization critics ignore the fact that these policies that are desperately trying to save will continue to fail to curb marijuana use, just as they have failed since the beginning of the War on Drugs in the the 1970's. We at Students for Sensible Drug Policy, as well as _a majority of Rhode Islanders_, believe that the only way we can protect teens from marijuana use is to legalize the substance for adult use. Only then will we be able to eliminate the black market and set up a system of sensible regulation in it's place, one that actively works to keep cannabis out of the hands of our youth.

Stop by! Meeting is at 6 in MU Room 300.
Last meeting of the semester!
Welcome to our new and improved tumblr, which will now serve as our website as well.
The walls of prohibition are crumbling!
Hope to see you there! We will be talking about 3 upcoming events as well as a recap of North East regionals.
If you are an incoming freshman or transfer student, welcome to the University of Rhode Island! If not, welcome back for another year!
I'm Eric Casey, president of the URI chapter of Students for Sensible Drug Policy. SSDP is a grassroots organization with hundreds of chapters at universities around the world, dedicated to ending the so-called "War on Drugs" and advocating for sensible drug laws that treat drug use as a public heath issue, and not a criminal justice issue. Some of the causes we believe in include:
Students for Sensible Drug Policy is a great way to meet like-minded peers, have fun, learn critical career skills and to make a positive difference in the world. In the two years I've been apart of URI SSDP, I've been presented with some amazing opportunities to travel to different drug policy reform related events, often with financial assistance from URI. Some of our past endeavors have included:
Our meetings this year will be on Thursdays from 6pm-7pm in the Senate Chambers, 3rd floor of Memorial Union. Our first meeting will be next week (Sept. 13th). All are welcome! Topics will include an introduction to SSDP and the drug law reform movement, discussing plans for the regional conference as well as our upcoming trip to the Boston Freedom Rally, making preliminary plans for URI Hempfest, a discussion of the recent success of the marijuana legalization movement, and much more.
If you can't attend our meetings but still want to be in the loop, or If you just want more information about our organization, check out these sites. Especially our facebook and twitter pages so you can stay informed about meeting times and other on-campus events :
Even if you don't decide to attend our meetings, if you are ever working on a school project involving drug use, or If you have any questions at all regarding drug policy reform as well as campus, state or federal drug laws, please don't hesitate to contact us. If we don't know the answer, we'll probably know someone who does.
We have big plans for this school year and hope that you'll be apart of them. Thanks and hope to see you soon!
What troubles me about this… I think it's beyond hypocrisy. I think it's something to do with class. A lot of people have accused Obama of class warfare, but in the wrong direction. I believe this is Obama chortling with Jimmy Fallon about lower class people. Do we believe, even for a second, that if Obama had been busted for marijuana — under the laws that he condones — would his life have been better? If Obama had been caught with the marijuana that he says he uses, and 'maybe a little blow' – cocaine! This casual attitude toward drugs… that makes him really cool on Jimmy Fallon. Makes him the hip president. 'I'm the cool president. I say weed. I say blow. Ha Ha Ha!' Huge laugh from the college students.
If he had been busted under his laws, he would have done hard fucking time. And if he had done time in prison, time in federal prison, time for his 'weed' and 'a little blow,' he would not be President of the United States of America. He would not have gone to his fancy-ass college, he would not have sold books that sold millions and millions of copies and made millions and millions of dollars, he would not have a beautiful, smart wife, he would not have a great job. He would have been in fucking prison, and it's not a god damn joke. People who smoke marijuana must be set free. It is insane to lock people up. One in six people in prison are in there for weed that Jimmy Fallon and the President of the United States of America laugh about."—Penn Jillette (via disobey)
It is my sad duty to inform that this year's Hempfest will be cancelled. After discussing it among our organization we have decided is in the best interest of all parties to cancel the event. This was a hectic year for our organization with several board member changes, and ultimately it became too much to accomplish with too little time to do it. HOWEVER, we are working on a replacement event, possibly a dance party on the quad to raise awareness about the marijuana decriminalization bill currently in the State Assembly. More details will be announced soon.
I would like to sincerely apologize to all those who were planning on attending. Since taking over as President a few weeks ago, the organization and I have done everything possible to make this event happen, but unfortunately it wasn't to be. As President of SSDP next year, I promise you that next year's Hempfest will the best in recent memory. Next year 4/20 is a Saturday, and our first objective of the year will be to secure that date. Until then, SSDP will continue to do everything possible to promote student activism and to change the laws regarding Cannabis and other drugs in our state and federal governments. With Decriminalization on the agenda in Rhode Island and several states looking to legalize in November, it's look like we'll have plenty to celebrate at next year's Hempfest.

What is the best way to deal with drugs? Criminalizing drug users or treating them as patients? Sticking to a strict prohibitionist stance or experimenting with alternative forms of regulation and prevention?
Hey everyone,
As you may or may not be aware, Pat has resigned as president to attend to some personal matters. Hempfest will still go on as planned. We have quite a bit of work still to do to make that happen, but I am still 100% confident we can do it. So let's go down to business:
I know this isn't how we pictured this year panning out, but as I said before, we got this. I think that as long as WRIU hold up their end of the bargain, this year's Hempfest will equal last year's if not better it. Also, I just want to take this to tell you how honored and excited I am to be president next year. I have a lot of big plans for the chapter, and will probably spend a solid amount of my free time in the summer laying down a framework to make next year awesome and every meeting worth going to. I also want to make the group as democratic as possible, as well as to make sure we all make it our responsibility that everyone who wants to go on some of the amazing SSDP adventures we have has the opportunity to do it. URI SSDP needs to rep hard everywhere and these conferences and other SSDP events are some of the most awesome things one could possibly imagine. I now realize running a student organization is not as easy as it may seem, but I feel completely ready to take on the responsibility.
Hope to see everyone on Tuesday,
April 4, 2012

Dear Mr. President:
Our coalition represents the views of tens of millions of Americans who believe the war on medical marijuana patients and providers you are fighting is misguided and counterproductive. As your administration prepares to release its annual National Drug Control Strategy, we want to speak with one voice and convey our deep sense of anger and disappointment in your lack of leadership on this issue.
Voters and elected officials in sixteen states and the District of Columbia have determined that the medical use of marijuana should be legal. In many of these states, the laws also include means for providing medical marijuana patients safe access to this medicine. These laws allowing for the cultivation and distribution of medical marijuana actually shift control of marijuana sales from the criminal underground to state-licensed, taxed, and regulated producers and distributors.
Instead of celebrating – or even tolerating – this state experimentation, which has benefited patients and taken profits away from drug cartels, you have turned your back as career law enforcement officials have run roughshod over some of the most professional and well-regulated medical marijuana providers. We simply cannot understand why you have reneged on your administration's earlier policy of respecting state medical marijuana laws.
Our frustration and confusion over your administration's uncalled-for attacks on state-authorized medical marijuana providers was best summed up by John McCowen, the chair of the Mendocino County (CA) board of supervisors, who said, "It's almost as if there was a conscious effort to drive [medical marijuana cultivation and distribution] back underground. My opinion is that's going to further endanger public safety and the environment – the federal government doesn't seem to care about that."
The National Drug Control Strategy you are about to release will no doubt call for a continuation of policies that have as a primary goal the ongoing and permanent control of the marijuana trade by drug cartels and organized crime. We cannot and do not endorse the continued embrace of this utterly failed policy. We stand instead with Latin American leaders, members of the Global Commission on Drug Policy, and the vast majority of people who voted you into office in recognizing that it is time for a new approach on marijuana policy.
With approximately 50,000 people dead in Mexico over the past five years as the result of drug war-related violence, we hope that you will immediately reconsider your drug control strategy and will work with, not against, states and organizations that are attempting to shift control of marijuana cultivation and sales, at least as it applies to medical marijuana, to a controlled and regulated market.

A Rhode Island state senator warned police of political retaliation after Senate Majority Leader Dominick Ruggerio was pulled over Wednesday on suspicion of driving under the influence, Barrington police said Friday.
According to a police report released Friday, Sen. Frank Ciccone, D-Providence, tried to contact top police officials to deal with "'the problem'" and told an officer "'you think you got pension problems now, wait `til this [shit] is all done.'"
Ciccone, 64, told The Associated Press he has been advised by Ruggerio's attorney to say little about the incident.
"I do not agree with the accuracy of some of the details," he said of the police report released Friday. "I regret anything I may have said that might have been inappropriate.""—Cops: RI senator warned officer about retaliation
For those of you wondering why things like decrim. haven't happened yet, this is the political climate we're attempting to work in.
How did I just discover this?
I heard a lot of crazy things at the decriminalization hearing yesterday, but Sen. Shibley took home the prize by repeating this line two or three times.
NO ONE buys less than an ounce of Marijuana.
Really Senator? Ignoring the obvious question of how a senator would possibly know how much of a drug people on the street are buying, and that comment is still puzzling. I'm not even going to discuss his comments in greater detail, as anyone with the slightest knowledge of recreational Marijuana use knows that the vast majority of people who use cannabis don't buy that much in a month, let alone at once. I sent him an email to asking about where he got his information.
Hello Senator,
During Tuesday's hearing regarding Marijuana Decriminalization, you seemed quite adamant that marijuana users never purchase less than an ounce of marijuana at a time. I had a few people ask me about this statement, and was wondering what your logic or source behind this sentiment was. If you or someone from your office could get back to me on this, It would be greatly appreciated. I know my organization and your view points on this issue differ, but we at URI SSDP appreciate the fact that you had the courage to state your beliefs on the issue, unlike many of today's politicians on both sides of the aisle.
Thank you for your time,
Eric Casey,
URI SSDP Treasurer
I'm sure he'll get back to me…
Don't like gay marriages? Don't get one.
Don't like marijuana? Don't use it.
Don't like cigarettes? Don't smoke one.
Don't like abortions? Don't have one.
Don't like sex? Don't do it.
Don't like drugs? Don't do them.
Don't like porn? Don't watch it.
Don't like alcohol? Don't drink it.
Don't like guns? Don't buy one.

Pics & VideosHere you can see the Transwonder in action. Its smart cut pushes up body fat and muscle. Then all that's left to do is fill the breast pockets (e.g. with silicone implants) and there you go: you've got the bosom and cleavage that you've always longed for.
...with Transwonder
|This slim man weighs 62kg and is 1.86m tall. He has a BMI of 17.92, and almost no body fat. Nevertheless, with the Transwonder, we succeeded in giving him a cleavage (seen here without padding).
|Transwonder front view: No clasp at front makes you look even more feminine. The lace transition of your décolletage creates a nice fusion of "bosom" and Transwonder without any giveaway edges. The breast pockets can be variously filled (e.g. with silicone breast implants or other aids you might prefer).
|Transwonder back view: Transwonder is equipped with corset-top braces to provide in-built stability. Some permanent padding has been woven into the fabric. A silicone strip keeps everything safely in place preventing spillovers.

Securing Forensic Patients in the Public Hospital Setting: Part 1
Creating workable security policies to deal with this 'invisible population'
The liaison should ensure that hospital administration and security have the contact information for the key correctional facility personnel. This includes the direct telephone numbers for the warden or jail director, the medical director of the correctional facility, the company that performs the utilization review function and a contact at the correctional facility that will receive the inmate upon return. Periodic meetings should occur between key hospital representatives and those of the correctional facility. This ensures that lines of communication are kept open and any changes in contacts, procedures, or processes are shared. Prison and healthcare administrators must have continuous dialogue to identify conflicting issues that impact the care of forensic patients and the safety of other patients and staff.
Case Study: John Hilton, Director of Security at a major medical center was shocked when he discovered that the patient in room 63251 was an unescorted inmate on community furlough. Unfortunately, he discovered it only after the inmate had assaulted one of the hospital physicians who gave him a diagnosis he didn't want to hear. It seems the inmate had a personality disorder characterized by violent outbursts. He had been doing so well at the detention facility that the correctional staff felt he deserved to be on medical release.
Tip #2: Make sure your hospital has a "Forensic Patient Policy" or a "Care of Patients in Custody of Law Enforcement Policy", and that all correctional facilities using your hospital have a copy. Even more importantly, make sure your staff is familiar with the policy.
Most correctional officers providing security for forensic inpatients are receiving over-time pay, and providing security for their patients becomes very cost intensive in terms of productivity and budget for the correctional facility.
As a means of reducing these expenses, facilities often place pressure on physicians to discharge forensic patients back to the correctional facility as quickly as possible. Other times they will provide one correctional officer when two would be more appropriate. In addition, they will send certain inmates to the medical facility unaccompanied by any correctional officers. Indeed, I have seen them send a "community furloughed" inmate to pick up another one from a hospital at discharge.
Hospitals should also determine their approach to the care of trustee or community furloughed forensic patients. Many correctional facilities do not want to provide correctional officer coverage for these patients. Often, the patient is sent to the hospital for care unaccompanied by officers and left to their own recognizance. It is not uncommon for these patients to begin acting out and harassing nursing staff. If this occurs, the hospital security director or supervisor should immediately contact the correctional facility and demand correctional officers be assigned immediately and remain with the forensic patient until he is transferred back to the correctional facility.
Depending upon the crime and the level of security, a forensic patient may have one, two or as many as four correctional officers at any given time. A female correctional officer should always accompany female inmates, even if other officers are male. Make sure that it is well understood by the correctional facility and the hospital staff that hospital security personnel will not provide coverage or relief for correctional officers accompanying forensic patients. Under no circumstances should the hospital assume responsibility for the security of forensic patients. Indeed, should an inmate patient attempt to escape, no hospital staff members should ever attempt to stop or apprehend the inmate. They should only try to ascertain the direction the inmate is taking and keep staff and visitors out of the way.
Budget cuts at the Federal Bureau of Prisons has led them to employ contract guard services to provide security coverage for certain classes of their inmates requiring acute care hospitalization at civilian facilities. Hospitals serving this population should ask for the qualifications and for any firearm certifications for the security guards accompanying Federal inmate patients.

On Saturday, we joined other supporters for Relay for Life in Carbondale. While the weather forced the event indoors, it was still an awesome opportunity to come together as a community to raise money for Cancer research. The credit union team raised over $3,000 and fundraising is still ongoing. Our hope is to top last year's donation of $4,000.
From Kiss the Pig, to being the Credit Union Night Sponsor, our employees contributed lots of hours raising money.
If you'd like to make a donation to Relay for Life, you can drop it off at any branch location.

Why Social Media Monitoring is Vital for Companies in Asia–Pacific
Editor's note: This post was written by Elizabeth Victor, Brand Advisor for iSentia Media Monitoring. She enjoys sharing tips on social media monitoring and analysis, especially in Asia Pacific. You can find her on G+ and Twitter.
Social media monitoring is important for every business in order to keep tabs on what people are saying about your company; however, it is especially important for Asia-Pacific companies who are very conscious about their brand image. Many Asia-Pacific countries are gun shy when it comes to launching social media campaigns for fear of negativity from customers in addition to abiding by strict guidelines and laws imposed by different countries.
Companies like this who are concerned about what people are saying about their brand online should absolutely be using the tools available to monitor online activity. This allows them to venture into social media marketing, where there might not be as much competition present and still keep close tabs on their brand reputation and image.
As experts in social media monitoring, reporting, and creating connections with key influencers, we understand how important company image is for companies in Asia-Pacific companies including Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, and China. For as important as social media monitoring can be to companies, it can be incredibly easy, automated, and even free. Read More

Always Wear Joy: My Mother Bold and Beautifulby Susan Fales Hill
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
From an inside peek at the inner workings of Hollywood to the backstage drama of Broadway, from a poignant look at the black upper class to an honest look at the WASP elite, this elegantly wrought memoir of an extraordinary family has something for everyone.
Growing up with a black Auntie Mame-like mother (who performed with the likes of Lena Horne) and an Anglo sea-faring father, Susan Fales-Hill moved seamlessly between many worlds. But it was from her mother — a woman who was dressed by Givenchy and sculpted by Alexander Calder, yet rejected by many a casting agent for her "dark," unconventional looks — that Susan drew inspiration, particularly when she faced challenges in her own career as a television writer in Hollywood, a town that wasn't always receptive to positive images of people of color. As a result the two developed a bond that mothers and daughters everywhere will find inspiring. Both a universally touching mother-daughter story and a portrait of a dazzling American family, Always Wear Joy is a memoir readers won't soon forget.
About the Author
Susan Fales-Hill is an award-winning television writer and producer. She has worked on shows ranging from The Cosby Show to A Different World, Linc's, and Suddenly Susan. Her writing has also appeared in Vogue, Town & Country, and Travel & Leisure. She lives in New York City.

I can personally think of plenty of fabulous ways to create a fashion homage to menses, but this is not one of them. More than anything, it looks like the wrapping of a tampon or sanitary napkin.~

Broken Wing Lyrics - Martina McBride
Review The Song (2)
With a broken wing she carries her dreams man you ought to see her fly
She loved him like he was the last man on earth
Gave him everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up on her
Give a little
Then take it back
She'd tell him 'bout her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
You're crazy for believing you'll ever leave the ground
He said only angels know how to fly
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
sponsored linksShe carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note by the window
With the curtains blowing in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man you oughta see her fly

Broken Wing | Reviewer: Erin | 6/7/2007
When I First heard this song..i fell in love with it, it reminds me of my ex boyfriend. I Thought that we would grow old together, but i guess i was wrong because he didnt feel the same way. when i heard this song i broke out in tears. This song gave me a reason to get back up on my feet.I Felt like i had a broken wing and that i would never fly again. Im Blessed with 2 Beautiful Children and they help me to get by everyday.

Beautiful Lyrics/Song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/21/2007
When I first heard this song, it brought me to tears. She has a gorgeous singing voice and brings so much emotion to her music. This song is a reminder to not let anyone crush your dreams, always believe in yourself, don't let anyone put you down.

This is a great quilting ruler, order from Overstock, the shipping was over 2 weeks to recieve if you are patient and can wait that long then it is great, but if you need it right away, Overstock shipped for free, but by slow parcel post, ordered it on the 13th of june and got it today the 25 of june.
This will come in very handy for my sewing and quilting projects. I loved it.
The ruler is a quality produc: lightweight, streamlined, clearly marked, versatile, right length and width, time-saver, steady, straight edge plus angles. I'm satisfied with the product, and Overstock's speedy service. Thank you.
My most used quilting tool.... aside from my self-healing mat!
Wasn't sure I would like the markings on this ruler but I am getting use to them and think they will be a great feature. What I love is the fact that is really is non-slip. My old ruler is hard to keep in place but this one is great!

"Talking to White People about the Zimmerman Trial Bingo"
Aubrey, one of my amazing subscribers, dropped me a note this morning to say that the ridiculous comments on Kamu Bell's and my Facebook page inspired this epic Zimmerman Trial Bingo card.

I made traditional gender rolls.
"I feel like I frequently have this exchange with my straight male friends. They're like, "Oh, you're a lesbian, that's awesome; I'm into that." And then they're like, "But in your relationship with your girlfriend, which one of you is the man of the relash?" Right? Like, fair enough question, but we're genuinely both women. That's kind of the point. That is the essence of the arrangement that we've made. And they're like, "No, but which one of you represents the man?" And it's like saying to a vegetarian, "Oh, you're a vegetarian; that's the best. Uh, which part of this salad represents the pork chop?" No, it's made of vegetables. "Which vegetable wears the strap-on" is what they're really asking. The answer is all the vegetables. Even the long haired vegetables sometimes wear them. And when they do it's very exciting for the short-haired vegetables."

Comcast Cheating On Bandwidth Testing?
kdawson posted more than 6 years ago | from the tuning-for-the-benchmark dept.287
dynamo52 writes "I'm a freelance network admin serving mainly small business clients. Over the last few months, I have noticed that any time I run any type of bandwidth testing for clients with Comcast accounts, the results have been amazingly fast — with some connections, Speakeasy will report up to 15 Mbps down and 4 Mbps up. Of course, clients get nowhere near this performance in everyday usage. (This can be quite annoying when trying to determine whether a client needs to switch over to a T1 or if their current ISP will suffice.) Upon further investigation, it appears that Comcast is delivering this bandwidth only for a few seconds after any new request and it is immediately throttled down. Doing a download and upload test using a significantly large file (100+ MB) yields results more in line with everyday usage experience, usually about 1.2 Mbps down and about 250 Kbps up (but it varies). Is there any valid reason why Comcast would front-load transfers in this way, or is it merely an effort to prevent end-users from being able to assess their bandwidth accurately? Does anybody know of other ISPs using similar practices?"

Toronto, Ontario – Canada's premier training program for young opera professionals, the Canadian Opera Company Ensemble Studio, welcomes four new artists for the 2011/2012 season. They join an illustrious program that, since its inception in 1980, has launched the careers of over 150 Canadian singers, opera coaches, stage directors and conductors, including Ben Heppner, Isabel Bayrakdarian, John Fanning, Wendy Nielsen, David Pomeroy, Joseph Kaiser, Lauren Segal and Krisztina Szabó.
The two new singers are both Ottawa natives: soprano Mireille Asselin, fresh from a critically-acclaimed performance in Opera Atelier's La clemenza di Tito, and bass-baritone Philippe Sly, a 2011 winner of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. Two intern coaches each arrive from renowned music institutions: Barrie, Ontario pianist Jenna Douglas, who recently worked with the Oberlin College Conservatory in Ohio, and Toronto pianist Timothy Cheung, who has trained at the University of Western Ontario and the Music Academy of the West in California.
Returning for the 11/12 season are eight current members who have established themselves over the past season as the opera stars of tomorrow: Ambur Braid, Rihab Chaieb, Neil Craighead, Christopher Enns, Adrian Kramer, Ileana Montalbetti, Simone Osborne and Jacqueline Woodley.

Toronto, Ontario – The fate of the top five finalists of the Canadian Opera Company's Cinderella Outfit Challenge is now in the hands of the contest's celebrity judges: Jeanne Beker (host of CTV's Fashion Television), Steven Sabados and Chris Hyndman (hosts of Steven & Chris on CBC TV), David McCaffrey (creative director and designer of McCaffrey Haute Couture) and COC General Director Alexander Neef.
Public voting on the 60 submitted Cinderella-inspired hand-crafted costumes closed at the stroke of midnight on April 6, 2011, with 3,888 votes having been cast via the COC's Facebook page, facebook.com/canadianoperacompany. The top five designs, entitled "Golden Cinderella," "Fashionably Late," "Paperella," "Made from Magic" and "A Classic Fairy Tale," were the most popular, earning a combined total of 1,205 votes. Five very unique designs are represented in the final selection, featuring gowns classic in style to dresses with a distinctly fashion-forward look. Materials used in the creation of these designs range from traditional cloths and ribbon to multi-coloured slips of cupcake wrappers.
The winner of the design challenge will be announced on the COC's website, coc.ca, on April 15, and will receive an opera prize pack worth more than $3,000, including four tickets to the opening night performance of the COC's Cinderella on April 23 and overnight accommodation at the Hilton Toronto. The top five entries will also be on display at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts during performances of the COC's Cinderella on April 23, 28, May 1, 7, 10, 13, 19, 22 and 25, 2011.
The Cinderella Outfit Challenge was inspired by the crocheted dress-wearing doll image used in the creative campaign of the COC's production of Cinderella. The Cinderella Outfit Challenge ran from March 15 – April 3, 2011, during which time contest participants created an original clothing design and submitted a photo of a doll wearing the Cinderella-inspired garment to the facebook.com/canadianoperacompany. Entries were judged by the general public from March 15 – April 6, 2011, with the five designs with the most votes moving on for final review.
All entries to the Cinderella Outfit Challenge, including the top five finalists, are still available for viewing by visiting facebook.com/canadianoperacompany and selecting "Cinderella Outfit Challenge."
Toronto, Ontario – The power of love takes centre stage at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts this May when the Canadian Opera Company premieres its first production of an opera by Christoph Willibald Gluck – the masterpiece Orfeo ed Euridice. Canadian Robert Carsen, one of the most prominent names in the international opera scene today, makes his much-anticipated return to the COC to direct his highly-acclaimed production. Carsen is joined by renowned opera and concert conductor Harry Bicket and opera stars American countertenor Lawrence Zazzo and Canadian soprano Isabel Bayrakdarian. Orfeo ed Euridice is sung in Italian with English SURTITLES™, and runs for eight performances on May 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 24, 26 and 28, 2011.
Orfeo has lost his wife Euridice and goes – literally – to hell and back to find her in this operatic adaptation of the Greek myth. When Orfeo is granted permission by the god of love to lead Euridice out of the underworld, it is with one stipulation: he cannot look back upon his beloved's face until they reach Earth. The resulting tale in which love confounds death, set to a score of unsurpassed beauty, is one of opera's greatest masterpieces. Equally momentous is the production that brings Orfeo ed Euridice to the COC. Carsen's staging has been described as "magical" and a "revelation on several levels" (Chicago Sun-Times) as well as "a vivid demonstration of why this exquisite work has endured in the international repertory for centuries"(Opera News) at its Lyric Opera of Chicago premiere in 2006.

After having spent 18 seasons in the NBA and playing over 1,000 regular season and postseason games combined, Jerry Stackhouse finally decided to call it quits in the summer 2013. This past year, Stackhouse was a studio analyst for Fox Sports Detroit.
"I enjoyed this year, just doing some broadcasting, doing radio and still being able to build what I want to do from a basketball standpoint coaching wise," Stackhouse said. (via NetsDaily)
Currently, Stackhouse is in Italy coaching the U.S. under-20 team.
Years ago, Stackhouse couldn't even envision himself being a coach. However, as time went by and his playing days began to dwindle, Stackhouse gained an infatuation with the idea and decided he would like to pursue the opportunity. When he signed with the Brooklyn Nets in the summer of 2012, Stackhouse joined the team in part to learn under then Nets head coach Avery Johnson.
"I never thought I'd want to coach, but now I kind of want to transition into that, kind of learning from (Johnson)," Stackhouse said. "I know he'll allow me to assume some of the responsibilities this year. I think a lot of coaches would be threatened by that, but he's comfortable enough to let me earn my way while I'm playing." (via Stefan Bondy of NY Daily News)
Recently, the former All-Star had high hopes of being able to join the New York Knicks. Stackhouse had recently met with current Knicks president Phil Jackson. Those hopes were derailed, though, when the Knicks recently hired Derek Fisher to be the head coach and added Kurt Rambis and Bill Cartwright as his lead assistants.
That shouldn't stop Stackhouse from pursuing his latest dream. Stackhouse is a well respected former player who was able to carve out a long and successful 18-year career. He roles varied from being a star player to the twelfth man off the bench, along with just about everything in between.
As you get older, your athleticism starts to erode. There is a reason why Stackhouse was able to last so long.
It's unlikely that his first coaching gig in the NBA will be as a head coach. He will probably have to work his way up from being an assistant first. One day Stackhouse will get his shot. It's probable that he will make that team very happy for doing so.
