Evicting Tenants: How effective are Cash For Keys offers?
If the PTFA law makes landlords honor existing leases, or at least provide 90 day notice to move: 1) How effective are cash for keys offers to expedite eviction? Do tenants typically feel uncomfortable enough or motivated to move out (with or without a cash for keys offer) or do they usually exercise their rights to stay 90 days or the remainder of their lease? 2) What is a typical effective Cash for Keys offer? Is it 2K, 5K 10K and for typically for 15 or 30 days? 3) should investors avoid bidding on a property without knowing if there is a tenant, the lease status and the intention of the lessee? 4) What is the most efficient way to determine if a property has a tenant?? Is just checking to see that the owner has a different mailing address on ForeclosureRadar, enough?

Dropbox unblocked in China ... for now
It's never really been blocked
Yes - the website has been blocked (unless you use a VPN), but the desktop and mobile clients have always worked fine. I've been in China for three years and have never had an issue using Dropbox. It's a little more difficult to sign up for a new account or use the web front end (hint: search term - VPN), but not much more so.
Your kids' chances of becoming programmers? ZERO
Re: Old Manuals
No - I think that you're right. I was taught at Manchester by a Dr Lindsey in the mid 80s who was a complete Algol bigot. He forced us to use Algol-68 (the pain, the pain). He used to proudly tell us that the whole Algol 68 language could be validated using the BNF parser and so it was impossible to write incorrect programs. What is didn't say was that it was pretty well impossible to write any programs at all the syntax was so convoluted.
Apple pulls banned content from Chinese App Store
wow....there's a serious bit of ignorance about China. Define illegitimate for me....ah, I see, they have to follow your definition of a democracy. The UK, US, UN (etc etc) recognise the government of China, so I guess they are in fact legitimate.
There's loads of stuff about China and its government that is not nice...but they're definitely not fascist. In fact there's loads of good stuff that the government does...like invest in infrastructure, move people out of poverty, allow people to build personal wealth (legitimately and illegitimately to be fair). Yeah, they're paranoid...they're also pretty unpleasant to people who don't agree with the system....but an awful lot of people have a much better life now than they did 10 years ago.
I've lived in China for two years now....no guns, no beatings, just a bunch of regular people going about their business in the same way as they would in London or New York....spending money, drinking beer, buying iPhones

Or he could be making fun of us.
All the important stuff.
Badass Hall of Famer John McClane returns, in Russia.
An actor we've never heard of joins the franchise.
As the dollar drops, John McClane seeks some rubles in DIE HARD 5.
A commercials director takes the reins of the very tainted DIE HARD franchise.
The Gruber clan could return in DIE HARD 5. How many times can the same family try and kill the same guy?
John McClane is the great American action hero of the modern age. An answer to the cartoony, unstoppable heroes of the 80s, McClane's DIE HARD films brought us a real human being at the center of awesome, thrilling action. His dedication and his bravery are not superhuman but totally relatable. And he's got some great one liners.
A live theatrical adaptation of DIE HARD. Only in Austin, Texas! Watch the video within.

DH and I had THE best time in Whistler. The hotel, posh and perfect (and the rate we got...WOW! we're spoiled now!) and they even slightly upgraded our room by giving us a slopeside view which meant we could watch all the people going up to ski and snowboard on the glacier at the top of the mountain as well as all the other summer activities. We were off the Village area, but they had a prompt shuttle that was fantastic. the staff, never once did we think any of them could be nicer! one of the vallets (the cute Britt! hey, I'm married, not dead ;) ) even said hello when we saw him in the village.
The weather could have been better, but aside from some rain, which we don't mind we're used to it, it was a perfect weekend! I'm just trying to figure out why the heck it took us 9 years to get up there. it's about 5 hours but after Feb 2010, it'll take less time as they're currently improving the road between Vancouver and Whistler to accommodate the traffic the 2010 Olympics will bring. Stunning scenery, great attractions (altho admitedly, not cheap!)...yup, we'll be going back, perhaps even while Ruby is still quite young :)
Oh and on Friday, since we were beat from the drive, after dinner, we went home and I watched the DC PMS broadcast of the concert and fireworks, so we saw fireworks afterall!

It has been hard to keep up with the blog, I have to admit - a lot of work organizing the show and then there were also the guitars that needed to be done. They have now safely arrived in Berlin and so there's a little time to catch up. I'll be following them tomorrow.
This show has been a long time coming. And it still feels a bit unreal that it is actually going to take place this coming weekend. We are enormously excited and gratified by the response it has already received, indicating that there was a real need for such a show to happen in Europe. Will it live up to all the expectations? - I don't know. Will it be a success? Well, as someone recently said - it already is a success! The simple fact that it is finally taking place is in itself a huge success!
It took a lot of work and has cost us personally in time, effort and lost productivity in the workshop. So it needs to be said again - this show is conceived as a community effort. Without all of you builders helping and pitching in it will not continue to happen. Our little group has embarked on this venture with little knowledge of the amount of work facing us - thousands of details to be kept track of, and a myriad little things to figure out. As the show kept growing we found ourselves overwhelmed at times, drowning in the demands our brainchild constantly issued to us. But all's well that ends well. We are proud to have come this far - and we hope all this work will pay off with a splendid show, for exhibitors and visitors alike. I also hope that you will respect our intentions and the fact that this has been a labor of love, created purely with volunteer effort, by people setting aside time from their own work to offer this to the community. Many of you haven't experienced such a show, I know - it is not the Messe or NAMM - it is something different, and I ask that you come with an open mind and heart to enjoy the company of colleagues and visitors, to see all the wonderful instruments - and I promise it will be a great weekend, hopefully just the first of such occasions!
Have a great Show!
Michael Spalt
EGB president
Interesting item in the news today - please check it out. What this means for us independent builders is not quite clear yet - but it foreshadows a trend that will certainly change the nature of the guitar retail business. We will be watching this closely...
The new book Guitar Makers by Yale professor of anthropology Kathryn Dudley is a must read for anyone working in the field of guitar building. She touches on and explores a lot of the themes and concerns which have led me personally to work on/for the creation of the EGB.
Having experienced the American luthierie scene and the way guitar builders there view their work and life in the context of a community, sharing information, helping each other, I was surprised by how different the situation is in Europe.
Born out of the spirit of the late '60s, with more than a tinge of hippie idealism, the roots of American modern lutherie are far from the European model, grown out of the medieval guild system, with its mistrust, secrecy of methods and territorial angst.
One of the main misson objectives of the EGB is the fostering of a community, of creating a platform for this spirit and of helping guitar builders navigate the rapid changes happening today, on so many levels. Much of this is addressed here - essential reading!
Michael Spalt
president EGB
Time for the first EGB project - we want to create a dictionary of luthier's terms in as many European languages as possible. This way luthiers will be able to communicate better among themselves across borders and also be able to communicte with their clients (at the Show and elsewhere). The dictionary should include various sections covering the terms for:
all guitar (and bass) parts
There might be some of you out there who have such a dictionary in one language or the other. If so, please share. We will collect them and assemble a master dictionary. I will also publish a list of terms in English we would like to have translated and would be grateful to receive your feedback and translations.
We will then publish this dictionary on the EGB website as a resource for all.
Die aktuelle Ausgabe von Grand Guitars enthält einen guten Artikel über die Holy Grail Guitar Show! Information über die Show und das Konzept. Natürlich auch jede Menge anderer interessanter
Artikel - also kaufen! Wir danken für die Unterstützung!
Grand Guitars Magazine has published an article about the "The Holy Grail Guitar Show". We thank them for their support!
Summer is upon us and I noticed that we haven't posted anything here in a long time! We are still very busy with the Holy Grail Guitar Show preparations, and we've neglected the EGB agenda and site a bit in consequence. I'll try and come back to it more often - we are continuing to welcome more members (again, we might be a bit late in posting them here, due to the HGGS work load). As the show preparations hopefully will steer into calmer waters now, we can come back and work on the EGB agenda again. CITES among other things has become a topic we want to address - the travel associated with the show has shown us the necessity for good up to date information about regulations, resources and where to go with questions.
The show. We're just coming up for air now - the exhibitor list is pretty much complete and we're full. We are looking forward to welcoming more than 110 luthiers to Berlin! We started out with thinking of maybe 50-80 max, but it has grown, not to say exploded! This will be one of the largest boutique shows in the world, and certainly a first for Europe! We are now focusing on PR and on getting the details for the show nailed down. You may have visited the new show website (thank you Emma and Juha for the mad effort in getting it out!). If not, go there and check it out - it will have updates and the full program for the show. Kora is doing a great job with the facebook luthier profiles and Tania is juggling everything behind the scenes. I will post background information here, about the show concept and the EGB Symposium on Friday (which will not be open to the public and is therefore not mentioned on the show website). So please stay tuned and come back often - we have discontinued using the newsletter due to spam problems - so this will be the place to get updates!
Michael Spalt
president EGB
We have just published the exhibitor list for the Holy Grail Guitar Show! This is just the first installment - we are adding names periodically as they are being confirmed. So, more to come! But browse through it and you can already see what a great collection of builders will be sharing the floor with you! Please share this among clients, friends and others you might think will enjoy coming and visiting the show. Also look it over and if there are changes you would like to make to your listing, let us know. We are stoked - already this looks like it is going to be a world class exhibit!
Dear Colleagues - it is done. The show will be a success. We have reached the critical mass of exhibitors confirmed and there are still more confirmations in the pipeline. It looks like we will have a full house - more than we initially intended, and filling the location to capacity. This week we will publish the exhibitor list and start working on sponsorships and publicity - for this we also need your help. Please spread the word, use social media, contacts you may have, and invite people to come! Let's create buzz and excitement and make this the event in 2014 for guitar lovers to attend!
Michael Spalt
President, EGB
"Our beloved luthier brother Rolf Spuler passed away on April 18th, 2014, after fighting a year against a difficult illness. So sad news. Rolf was a dear friend of mine, we've known each other for 15 years or so, regularly meeting at guitar shows, enjoying lengthy discussions about guitars and life in general. Rolf was among the first luthiers invited to exhibit at The Holy Grail Guitar Show, and even though he told me at that time about his condition and that he couldn't exhibit and most likely not even visit the show, he was still hopeful to perhaps beat the illness. Rolf was a great designer and luthier. Loved his witty sense of humour, too. Rest in peace Rolf, you will be greatly missed."
- Juha Ruokangas / EGB Vice President
Dear Colleagues,
we are now well on our way to make The Holy Grail Guitar Show 2014 in Berlin a reality!
We are proud to have come this far and confident that we will succeed in making this a great Show, and hopefully only the first of many to come.
We are happy to announce that Grit Laskin has agreed to hold a seminar during the EGB Symposium. Grit is one of the world's foremost inlay artists as well as a master luthier.
As we are continuing our work on organizing The Holy Grail Guitar Show, we are mindful of the feedback and questions we receive. It helps us with clarifying our ideas, with communicating to exhibitors about what to expect, and to learn what they think would make a good show for them. This is, after all, the first such show we are putting on, and even if among us we share a vast experience attending all kinds of shows, we are new to the task. So feedback and ideas are helpful to us in charting our course.
Michael Spalt
President, EGB
This is from an email we received after I had posted the conditions for exhibitors at The Holy Grail Guitar Show. It made some good points, and I'd like to use the following exchange to illustrate the reasons behind our format and why we think this is the best way to go:
From: Concerned
We are happy to announce that we are now collaborating with Luthierbuilt, a premier destination for musicians, guitar lovers and builders on the web. In the short time it has been active in its latest incarnation Luthierbuilt has already become a force in the guitar world, with many useful features and a truly international audience.
Sustain Magazine published a nice article about the EGB and the Berlin Press Conference in its current issue. Sustain is a magazine for luthiers, designers and stringed instrument lovers edited by Leo Lospennato. Read about it at:
The first General Assembly of the EGB was held Saturday morning after the press conference. We discussed the structure of the association, introducing the new members to the way it works. Then we decided on the next steps we are going to take regarding the organization of the EGB and finished off with the (by now traditional) toast of Finnish Salmiakki, kindly provided by Juha Ruokangas, our vice president!
This past weekend we all met in Berlin, welcoming new members and the press to our press conference announcing the invitational "Holy Grail Guitar Show", to be held in Berlin in Nov. of 2014. It was a great occasion, topped off by Ron Spielman and Michael Rodach playing all the instruments present in turn. We're looking forward now to continuing the work of organizing the EGB and to reach out to luthiers around Europe.
Ladies and gentlemen - EGB proudly presents The Holy Grail Guitar Show 2014! Stay tuned for more information as our press release goes out soon.
An important note to all the luthiers out there interested in joining EGB and/or exhibiting at The Holy Grail Guitar Show - keep an eye out on this website news section, we will have answers to your questions very soon!
Go 'like' The Holy Grail Guitar Show Facebook page now and be part of our fast growing community of luthiers and true guitar enthusiasts!
Michael Spalt (president of EGB) and Juha Ruokangas (vice president of EGB) were two of the many European guitar makers invited to showcase their works in Santa Rosa, California, at the Healdsburg Guitar Festival - one of the most appreciated boutique guitar shows around.
Michael and Juha standing on the top of the world (in this case the Twin Peaks, San Francisco), reaching higher with the future plans to raise the awareness of handmade guitars in Europe to a new level.
In May 2013 our efforts solidified when the registration of the association was confirmed in Germany, to be called 'The European Guitar Builders, e.V.' (EGB), located in Berlin!
In October 2012 Juha Ruokangas, Frédéric Pons, Ulrich Teuffel, Frank Deimel, Kora Jünger and Jacques Carbonneaux came to Vienna to meet with Andreas Neubauer, Michael and Tania Spalt with the goal of founding a European luthier organization that would start working on a new breed of international guitar exhibition - an event designed to raise the bar to a level never seen before.
As a result of the memorable weekend - filled with intense discussions and good food (Andreas, your goulash was divine!) in great company - the founding documents of The European Guitar Builders association were signed, sealed and delivered!
A small group of luthiers and associates came together at the Montreal Guitar Show 2012 - friends sharing the same vision: there is a need for an international organization to bind together the new generation of European guitar builders - a lively yet fragmented scene, filled with unsurpassed skill, innovation and talent.
The intense discussions that took place on the rooftop of the Hyatt Regency Montreal Hotel were the beginning of something to later take the form of The European Guitar Builders association.

Short Stories
A well-tailored pair of city shorts will do wonders for your summer wardrobe. Shorts are perfectly neutral, being smack-dab in the middle of the style spectrum. They can be completely dressed down or up to the nines, styled flirty and feminine or with a tomboy twist.
For summer, they're much more sophisticated than any old pair of cropped trousers and yet much more imaginative than a simple skirt. To inspire you, we've styled city shorts in three ways…
Whether you're actually hightailing it to Nice or just want to channel a bit of Gaelic glamour while out and about, work with these flattering red shorts from Yumi. Pair them with Jolie Moi's flirty peter pan collar blouse, and matching contrast ballet flats from Carvela. A cross-body satchel in raffia from RJR.John Rocha offsets the look beautifully, while this gold-tone anchor charm bracelet from Floozie by Frost French adds a nautical touch. A Brigitte Bardot-esque sun hat from Reger by Janet Reger completes the look.
We took to London and New York street style for inspiration for this look, and it starts with Oasis' classic black shorts, a pair you'll wear again and again. Style with Atelier 69's bold leopard print blouse, and Miss KG's black trainers to balance the look with a boyish cool. Accent with a tough-luxe cuff bracelet from Betty Jackson.Black, and of course, no city slicker goes without an It-bag and shades. We love J by Jasper Conran's croc-effect tote and Oasis' aptly named Soho sunglasses.
To work the season's painterly florals trend, centre this romantic look around Red Herring's pretty jacquard shorts. To keep the print in focus, pair with a minimalist cami from Oasis and chic ivory blazer from Threads. The pale shades of these demure mid-wedge sandals from Call it Spring are in tone with the dreamy palette of this look, while the jewel-encrusted headband from No.1 Jenny Packham is sure to win hearts. Dune's muted pink suede clutch is an elegant finishing touch.
The best part is that shorts can be worn with virtually any shoe. Except an actual running shoe. Last we heard, tourist chic is (thankfully) not a thing. Lastly, we recommend opting for looser over tighter – even up to a size larger than you'd go in jeans can be supremely flattering and wonderfully leg-slimming.
Shop all ladies' shorts here.

November 26, 2014
VATICAN CITY (AP) - Pope Francis has visited Emeritus Pope Benedict XVI ahead of his trip to Rio de Janeiro for World Youth Day - a trip Benedict had planned to make before retiring in February.
The Vatican said Francis spent about a half-hour Friday with Benedict and asked him for his prayers for the July 22-28 trip. Francis gave Benedict the booklet outlining the program as well as the commemorative medal that has been prepared for the trip.
Benedict participated in three World Youth Day events: in Cologne, Germany, soon after he was elected in 2005; in Sydney, Australia, in 2008; and Madrid, Spain, in 2011.
His doctors reportedly warned him against making the transatlantic flight to Rio for the 2013 edition, one of the reasons behind his decision to retire.

Cherry cordial brownies
I love taking a box of cake or brownie mix and turning it into something sort of homemade! Last night for dessert, I tried something new, and it was a hit. I was trying for the flavor of chocolate-covered cherries, or cherry cordials, with the creamy filling. They turned out great, and Jayson even said, "This may be the best thing you've ever made." He's a sucker for chocolate and cherries, though. Here's how I did it!
Cherry cordial brownies
1 family-sized box of brownie mix, plus the ingredients called for on the box
1 cup dried cherries or cherry-flavored dried cranberries
1 8-oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 Tbsp. flour
Preheat oven and prepare brownie mix as directed on the box. stir in the cup of dried cherries. Pour batter into a greased 9x13 baking dish.
Beat together the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and flour.
Spoon the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie mixture, forming stripes. Drag a butter knife through the batter in the opposite direction as the stripes, going one way and then the other, to marble the batter.
Bake as directed on the brownie mix box. You'll need to add a little time, but start checking the brownies about the time the box says they'll be ready. When a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean, they're ready! Serve with ice cream, hot fudge sauce, and, of course, a cherry on top!

Mohammed is the last prophet. Why this insistence on being last? Why not be first? But being last means you are closing the doors. Now the Holy Koran will remain, forever and forever, the only directions and guidance for the followers. It cannot take note of the changing circumstances; it cannot take note of the changing consciousness of man, his changing and deepening insight into reality. Christians are waiting for Christ. These are the tricks - one day Christ will come and he has promised them, "Soon." The "soon" seems to be very long.He cannot come again. He can only come in those same circumstances that existed in Judea two thousand years ago. Now, declaring oneself the only begotten son of God.any child will laugh.
Two small children were sitting on the steps of their house. The small one asked, "I wonder why these Christian bishops and cardinals are called 'father.' They don't have any children."
But the question, although it has come from a small child - and what is always being done to children's questions is, "Just wait. In time, in your maturity, you will know" - even Jesus never asked it. And if you are the only begotten son of God.is God so miserly? And at that time I don't think there were available any birth control methods.
Why did he stop at one? The same problem from a different angle. He has to stop at Jesus because somebody may later on declare, "I am another son of God." But what is the problem? Jesus has no proofs so evidence cannot be asked. Any idiot.and idiots are abundant, you try to seek one and you will find a thousand!
It happened in Baghdad, the capital of Mohammedanism, that a man was brought to Khalif Omar. He was claiming to be the latest messenger from God. "Mohammed is perfectly right but things have changed and a new dispensation from the direct source is needed." Mohammed cannot be bypassed in this way.
Omar said, "Listen. You will be beaten for seven days - no food, no water - and then I will come to see you in the jail. I hope by that time you have changed your mind."
The man laughed. He said, "These were exactly God's last instructions to me: 'People will not believe you. Even a man of the insight of Omar will first test you.' So I am available." He was taken to the prison, tied to a pole, naked, and beaten - no food, no water, no sleep. It was real torture.
After seven days when Omar came, he asked the man, whose whole body was oozing blood, but his eyes were glittering, shining, "Have you changed your mind?"
He said, "I was thinking to change but these seven days have proved to me that I am the prophet. That's what God said to me, 'You will be tortured. You will be harassed. You may be killed.' You have fulfilled all this and made me more certain. I was a little hesitant and it felt a little embarrassing to call myself a messenger of God."
At the same time at the next pole another man was tied. He had come a month before and he had not come with any Koran, any message from God. He declared that, "Because all the prophets have failed - Mohammed included - I finally decided to come myself." Now this is too much for fanatic, fascist fundamentalists. The man shouted from his pole, "Omar, don't be deceived by this man. After Mohammed I have not appointed any messenger."

A mind that waits is waiting for the unknown, because what is going to happen cannot be known beforehand; you cannot even conceive of it. You may have heard something about it, but that is not your knowledge; it remains unknown. A mind that is waiting for the unknown is a mind that is meditative.
When you are waiting for the unknown your knowledge becomes a barrier, because the more aware you are of your knowledge the more solidly you imprison yourself. You must not be in a "knowing" mood, you must be completely ignorant; only then can the unknown come to you. The moment your ignorance becomes aware of itself, the moment you know that you don't know, that is the moment you begin to wait for the unknown.
There are two types of ignorant people. The first type are not aware of their ignorance - they automatically think that they know. This is ignorant knowledge. The other type are those who are aware of their ignorance. This is a knowing ignorance. And the moment you become aware of your ignorance you come to the point where knowing begins.
A pundit, a person who thinks he knows, can never be a religious man. A person who thinks that he knows is bound to be nonreligious, because the knowledgeable ego is the most subtle thing. But the moment you know your ignorance there is no ego, there is no space in which the ego can exist. The greatest attack on the ego is to become aware of your ignorance; the greatest strengthening of your ego is to claim knowledge.
The second thing that I would like to say about meditation is that your mind must be totally aware of its ignorance. And you can only become aware of your ignorance when your accumulated, borrowed knowledge is known as not-knowledge. It is not knowledge, it is simply information, and information is not knowledge even though that is the way it appears.
A person who knows is not dogmatic about his knowledge; he hesitates. But a person who thinks that he knows is dogmatic, assertive; he is absolutely certain.
You must become aware of the fact that what you have not known cannot be your knowledge. You cannot borrow knowledge: that is the difference between a theological mind and a religious mind. Theology is one of the most irreligious things in the world and theologians are the most irreligious people, because what has been claimed by them as knowledge is borrowed.
Knowledge never makes any claims, because inherent in it is the phenomenon that the moment one knows, the I is lost. The moment one knows, the ego is no longer there. Knowledge comes when the ego is not, so the ego cannot claim to have it. The ego can only collect information; it can accumulate many facts, it can quote scriptures.
To go into meditation is to transcend your accumulated knowledge. The moment this knowledge is transcended, learning begins. And a learner is something quite different: he never claims that he knows, he is always aware of his ignorance. And the more aware of it he is, the more receptive he becomes to the new.

Equalizer 1.77
The advantages of being portable
Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it does not leave any traces in the Windows registry. You may copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to work with a calculator on the fly.
Easy-to-trigger actions
This program is essentially a simple calculator that comes with a minimal interface for doing your equations on the go, without wasting your time with complicated options and useless features. You only have to type in the numbers and Equalizer will do the math for you on the spot.
Nonetheless, that basic interface is also the ace up its sleeve because it turns the app into an advanced scientific calculator as soon as you start typing more advanced mathematical expressions.
Different skins to choose from
Sure, it would be great to offer the possibility of using the traditional calculator look, but instead developers have made the app skinnable, so, once in a while, you can choose a different look for this utility.
Graph builder
Another great goodie bundled into Equalizer is the graph builder. This particular tool will help you quickly draw your equations and it comes with a set of predefined calculations with their corresponding graphs.
Bottom line
All in all, Equalizer is quite a handy tool, but there's no doubt things could get even better with a few improvements here and here. The software is quite easy to use and performs the calculations with no delay so it definitely can be a handy assistant for any user.

(Maybe you've seen those ads of a woman doing a dancer pose in her cubicle.) And upstart Sweat Tailor, which sells $98 tailored sweatpants for men, told Fortune that its three-day Kickstarter soft launch raised $14,000. The company, whose campaign officially starts Tuesday, had expected to rake in at most $3,000.

A row erupted last week when it was revealed that thousands of young offenders are avoiding prison simply by saying sorry to their victims. Yet, Jo Nodding argues that restorative justice was an essential part of her healing. In this week's issue, she tells Grazia how meeting her attacker and forgiving him finally gave her back a sense of power…
"I was certain Scott* would kill me," Jo begins. "His eyes were wild. He was feral. In my mind, as he raped me, I silently said goodbye to my family, one by one. I knew I would never leave that room."
Ten years ago, Jo was working as a teacher at a school in the North-East. She was 32, married, and happy. Then, one Monday morning, Scott walked into her empty classroom.
"I can remember everything about the attack," she continued. "When he finished, he got up and ran straight out of the door without a word. I ran to the toilet and hid, frantically dialling 999."
Jo was left badly beaten and traumatised. Scott was arrested later that night, but didn't plead guilty until weeks later when indisputable DNA evidence was presented to him.
"From that night I was barely living," Jo said. "I didn't want to go out anywhere and I couldn't be on my own. Sometimes, out of nowhere, I would smell him and start screaming."
Because of the brutality of the attack, Scott was ordered to be detained indefinitely in a young offenders' institution. But whilst the legal trauma was over, Jo was struggling to recover.
She explained, "The judge told Scott whilst he was sentencing him that he had 'ruined my life'. Those words rang round in my head - the judge had given Scott power over me again. I imagined him, sat in his cell, gleeful in the knowledge that he'd got power over me.
"I decided to do something about it."
It wasn't until five years later that Jo was finally able to get justice for herself. And that meant sitting, face to face, with her attacker.
She arranged it through her liaison officer, who got in touch with the restorative justice system. Recent figures showed that up to 30,000 young people had escaped prosecution after apologising to their victims. Some called it alarming and heavy criticism ensued - but in fact, restorative justice is used alongside prosecution, not simply as an alternative.
Five years after he attacked her, Jo sat in a prison room opposite Scott. And at the end of their two hour conversation, she said the unimaginable - "I forgive you."
"He began crying immediately," Jo said. "People think that restorative justice is the easy way out, or a soft option - but facing me was one of the hardest things he'll ever do.
"And since that day, I've been told he now feels he has a future - and if he believes that, I believe he won't destroy it again.
"As for me, I've realised I'm no longer scared of him - or anyone. I walked out of that room with a huge smile on my face, confident and happy again. That day was what I finally needed to get past what he had done to me and get on with my life."
To read the full interview, buy this week's copy of Grazia. 'Can Criminals Say Sorry?', featuring Jo's story is on Monday, 14 April, BBC Three at 9pm.


text: There is a pesce Cane recipe in Martino that uses agliata and mustard sauce to "dress' the fish. A detail description of the recipe can be found in Oxford Symposium Papers 'fish Food from the Waters". The last line of the recipe is relevant to this discussion. Here is the line and the footnote from the paper. "But dress it well, as it shall not ever be good when its nature is unpleasant[1]". [1] When humoral theory is applied to the final phrase of this recipe it becomes clear Martino was telling his reader that garlic sauce and mustard, which are both hot and dry in nature, will balance the natural cool, wet tendency of the fish. For an in-depth discussion of humoral theory consult The Medieval Health Handbook; Tancuinum Sanitatis edited by Luisa Cogliati Arano, The Art of Cookery in the Middle Ages, Tempering Medieval Food" (included in Food in the Midddle Ages), Mixing it up in the Medieval Kitchen (included in ACTA Vol. XXI by Terrance Scully. Ep.1598 translates the entire final phrase as "But dresse it in what sort you will, it will never bee good as being naturally of no good taste". Eduardo On 11/20/09 8:54 AM, "Phil Troy / G.

The Mississippi Valley Blues Society is presenting the Bruce Katz Band at The Muddy Waters, 1708 State Street, Bettendorf, IA on Monday, October 27 starting at 7:00 p.m. The cost to see this brilliant performer and his band will be $5 if you are a Mississippi Valley Blues Society member, or $8 if you are have not joined the blues society (application will be available at The Muddy Waters door).
Bruce Katz was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and from 1996 - 2010 he was on the faculty at the Berklee College of Music in Boston as an associate professor. Playing music, both Blues and Jazz, has been his thing for many years and it shows in each of his performances.
In the early '80s Bruce's first major supporting gig was Big Mama Thornton; he then worked and toured with Barrence Whitfield & the Savages, Bo Diddley, Chuck Berry, Jimmy Witherspoon, Johnny Adams, and Tiger Okoshi. Burned out from life on the road, he enrolled at New England Conservatory, earning a master's degree in Jazz. Five months after graduation, Bruce met Ronnie Earl, who hired him as one of the Broadcasters. Bruce is also known as the dexterous pianist for the Gregg Allman Band.
Bruce has released 6 CDs with a seventh, Homecoming, due for release just after his stop in Bettendorf. He has also appeared on nearly 70 others CDs with the likes of Ronnie Earl, Delbert McClinton, John Hammond, Duke Robillard, Little Milton, Jimmy Witherspoon and many, many others.
His list of national recognized awards go on and on, but naming a few – Bruce is a three-time Blues Music Award nominee for "Piano Player of the Year," and a member of the New York State Blues Hall Of Fame. Although Homecoming will not be available to the general public, the CD will be offered to those attending the show on October 27.
This event is being presented by The Mississippi Valley Blues Society. The objective of the Society is to educate the general public about the native art form of blues-related music through performance, interpretation and preservation, thus enhancing appreciation and understanding.
Just in time for its 30th anniversary in 2014, the Mississippi Valley Blues Festival has been honored with a Keeping the Blues Alive Award from The Blues Foundation of Memphis, TN, the world-renown organization dedicated to preserving our blues music history, celebrating recording and performance excellence, supporting blues education and ensuring the future of this uniquely American art form. The coveted award, in the U.S. Festival category, is the equivalent of lifetime achievement recognition.
The Blues Foundation notes that the Mississippi Valley Blues Festival has become "one of the longest running, most prestigious blues festivals in the world. Held on the shores of the Mississippi River in Davenport, Iowa, this event features music on two outdoor stages and educational presentations. Four different times, the festival has moved due to river flooding, but each time, festival organizers have been up to the task.
Beginning in 1995 with Honeyboy Edwards, the festival inaugurated its RiverRoad Award to honor the true legends of the blues. Thus far, 36 men and women have been so honored." The Festival is also the only major blues festival in the nation to be produced by a non-profit, all-volunteer organization — the Mississippi Valley Blues Society.
Each year, The Blues Foundation presents the Keeping the Blues Alive (KBA) Awards to individuals and organizations that have made significant contributions to the Blues world. Unlike the Blues Music Awards, which recognize the past year's best in recordings and performance voted on by thousands of The Blues Foundation's members, the KBAs are awarded to non-performers strictly on the basis of merit by a select panel of blues professionals. Affiliated organizations, past KBA recipients and members of The Blues Foundation's Board of Directors are eligible to submit nominations.
The Mississippi Valley Blues Festival was nominated for the KBA award by musician Michael "Hawkeye" Herman, himself a KBA recipient for Education in 1998 and a former member of the board of directors of the Blues Foundation. In his nomination, Hawkeye noted that "The 2014 KBA Award would be a most auspicious way of honoring this event's 30 years of hard work and dedication to 'Keeping the Blues Alive' in both spirit and action."

I would recommend Angela and her team very highly. She sought to arrive at an amicable yet fair separation agreement for me, There are not many attorneys who can successfully represent a male client in a divorce / separation case. Angela is one of the rare ones in that category. She is a good listener, knowledgeable, smart and understands the clients 'must-have's and walk aways'. I will hire her again should the need arise.
I came to Angela for a second opinion on my separation papers. I am so thankful I did. She is very sincere and dependable. She was easy to talk to and helped me understand the entire process. Angela helped with all my legal concerns and she made sure I was protected. She is a wonderful person to work with during a difficult time in my life. I would strongly recommend her to my family and friends.
I had consultations with two other attorneys before meeting with Angela, and each of those meetings felt rushed, confusing, and frustrating. It felt as though my situation wasn't being looked at individually and I wasn't being asked the questions I felt I should. Instead, I was bombarded with general information, much of which didn't pertain to my circumstance. Angela made me feel comfortable, not rushed, and answered all my questions clearly. Following our initial consultation, Angela was always quick to respond to my emails/calls, typically within the same day or the following morning. Having three small children and a fair amount of assets/property, there was a lot of information to weed through. During my lengthy mediating hearing, Angela stayed focused and determined to fight for my best interest, even when I was physically and mentally exhausted and ready to give up after 12 hours in the mediation room. I left mediation feeling confident that things turned out the best they could. Angela is affordable; I spoke to other attorneys that were triple her rate, and showed less enthusiasm and genuine concern. I highly recommend Angela McIlveen for child support/alimony/custody/separation needs, you will not be dissapointed.
I have been a family law paralegal since 2005. I have seen hundreds of cases drag on for years. Angela strives to settle a case the fastest way possible while getting the best result possible for her clients. Angela manages to maintain the quality of her work while pushing the case through the court system. I would hire McIlveen Family Law Firm to handle ANY family law matter for me if I was in need of an attorney. Angela fully understands the law, the judges and how the court system runs. An attorney needs to know all three which Angela does.

As part of the agency's commitment to maintaining a heightened sense of vigilance across the transit system, New Jersey Transit (NJ Transit) Police Chief Christopher Trucillo announced a new and convenient way for customers to report suspicious activity or unattended packages: text messaging.
Through this initiative, called "Text Tips" or "Text Against Terror," customers will be able to report suspicious activity, packages or vehicles around NJ Transit facilities or onboard the system by sending a text message to New Jersey Transit Police Department. Messages will go directly to the NJ Transit's police department.
Text Tips will complement NJ Transit's existing security hotline, which was established in 2003 to enable customers to call in reports of suspicious activity or unattended packages across the system. All calls are investigated, and all information is confidential.
To make it even easier for customers to report suspicious activity while en route, NJ Transit has also launched a special security page on the mobile version of njtransit.com, accessible from Web-enabled mobile devices.
The Text Tips initiative is funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, along with a supporting awareness campaign that includes radio and television ads, posters, panel cards and other tactics to get the word out to customers.

Protecting my gear when I'm out and about
Summary: Mother Nature can be hard on electronic equipment, but with the right gear, you can take your tablet, smartphone, and camera into pretty much any environment and know it will live to fight another day.
1 of 8Image
(Image: Adrian Kingsley-Hughes)
Most people who know me personally quickly learn how hard I am on my electronic equipment. Pretty much everything I own — iPhone, iPad, notebooks, cameras, and so on — usually ends up running the risk of being rained on, washed away, blown away, eroded by Mother Nature, or otherwise trodden on or driven over by careless humans.
In other words, if I don't go to great lengths to protect my gear, it's not going to last that long. And I'm not alone here. Increasingly, people are taking delicate electronics in the form of smartphones, tablets, notebooks, and cameras, out into the elements and expecting them to work, day in, day out.
Since I've got a lot of experience taking my equipment out into the elements, I thought I'd share with you the kit I use to make sure my electronics live to see another day.
It is worth noting that the gear I list here isn't just stuff I've been sent to review in order to try to sell it to you. No, this is the gear that I use to protect my stuff.
(Image: G-Form)
iPhone: G-Form Xtreme
While I think that the iPhone is a thing of beauty, it's far too fragile to be allowed out naked into the world I inhabit.
To give my iPhone a fighting chance, I've put mine into a G-Form Xtreme case. This is manufactured from Reactive Protection Technology, a material that stiffens on impact in order to absorb over 90 percent of the force. The case also adds significant grip to the otherwise slippery handset.
So far, despite a number of close calls with gravity, my iPhone lives on!
