Come ride in this vintage 1972 Cadillac Fleetwod Seventy-Five Limousine.
This is a pure class, classic Limo!
1969 Cadillac Fleetwood Limo 472 V8 Custom Pearl Paint Low Original Miles
I thought you might be interested in seeing this 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood
Limousine. It has only 64,xxx original miles and it's powered by the big
472 V8, putting out 375 horsepower and 525 LbFt of
Torque. The previous owner was an Elvis impersonator and he had the car
painted in Pearl white. It's definitely a whole lot of car for the money.
Thanks for checking it out, I appreciate it!

1994 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Start Up, Exhaust, and In Depth Review
Since most everyone knows I'm a huge fan of these older GM luxury sedans
(being I just purchased a 1995 buick roadmaster limited) I always try to
film these as well as other B and D bodies whenever I get the chance, to
try and preserve these legendary american sedans through video for
everyones enjoyment :) In this video I give a full in depth review of the
1994 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. I take viewers on a close look through
the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing
of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also
show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds
under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give
others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
1975 Cadillac Fleetwood Limousine 500 V8
I thought you might like a look at this 1975 Cadillac Fleetwood Limo. It's
powered by the big 500 V8 backed by a turbo 400 automatic transmission. It has
approximately 58,xxx original miles and it's in very nice condition
overall. Definitely plenty of room for the whole family to cruise in this
baby. I hope you find it interesting...thanks for watching!

Cold start of my 1973 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham on a 12 degree F morning.
The car has the 472 cu in V8 (7.7L) and the original Quadrajet
carburetor. I recently had true dual Exhaust installed on the vehicle, but otherwise
it is entirely stock. The car has 41K miles on it and is my current
restoration project. I recently gave it a complete tune-up and had the
carburetor rebuilt, so it is running pretty well. That said, it does have
a valve tick...

to see this beautiful classic 1971 Cadillac Fleetwood Limousine for sale
from Left Coast Classics in Sonoma California.
This Cadillac Feetwood we have for sale is an unbelievable, rare find. A
1971 Cadillac Series 75 Factory Limousine with 2,200 Original Miles and
just one-owner of record. Sold new June 8, 1971. Amazingly well preserved,
this time piece was stored for decades indoors in it's native state of
Hawaii. The car has virtually no wear! Recently serviced and ready to use,
this Sable Black Series 75 starts; runs and drives like new. The only item
that has not been serviced is the air conditioning. Otherwise it is in just
amazing condition all around.
The steering wheel, pedals, leather front seating, cloth - all of it looks
new. The car has a few small paint blemishes on the trunk but nothing
noteworthy. This just might be the lowest mileage Series 75 of this era in
the world. Every option is in working order.
The motor runs smooth and the shifting is perfect. The trunk is all
original with the spare in place. The interior smells new. Fantastic car to
put into a collection or museum.
Take a look at the link above for more info and a nice detailed photo
gallery - then give me a call to grab this beauty for yourself.

Supercharged Cadillac Rezcalade EXT 10,000 Watt ZAPCO System
This is a project i finished back in 2006. It is Chickens '04 SMD Cadillac
"Rezcalade" EXT. As seen in the pages of Truckin' Magazine September 2006.
Click this link to see it
Its a long story, but basicly Chicken hit a curb so hard with this SUV, it
folded the wheel like a taco (search "taco job 26" on youtube) and
destroyed 2 wheels. They were out of production and we couldn't find
replacements anywhere. It took about a year of us debating what to do next
before i realized, like a dummy, that they are 3 piece 26's. That means as
long as the center is good, the rim is fixable! I had both of the wheels
repaired by my wheel guys at AZA ( http://www.azaforged.com ) So after
replacing the wheels, i got him some new tires. Kumho Tires SUCK so i got
Pirelli 30/26's for it. I also replaced all the rear batteries and the
front one with a XS Power D3100 ( http://www.wccaraudio.com ) . The old
alternators were removed and replaced with Mechman Alternators, 300 amps
each. Also used was a new Gates HD belt - a MUST for multiple H.O. Alt
situations. I tuned the system with the new DD-1 and for now, its back to
normal. We plan on doing more, but only time will tell.
The reason its being flatbedded, because i know someone will ask (yes, even
after i said it twice in the video) is because i cant drive two cars by
myself. Its easier for us just to call our boys at Tow Pro and transport
it. For now, its back home, running nice, sounding good......and Chicken
is happy.
The system Consists of:
Pioneer Headunit
Audio Control Processing
2 Zapco 4kw Amps
1 Zapco C2K 4.0
4 RE MT 15" Subs
Rockford Fosgate Mids/Highs
2 Mechman 300amp Alternators
5 XS Power D3100 Batteries
Alligator/Suede Interior
Lexani 26" Wheels

I worked at The PEER Group full-time (more than an year)Pros
Good starting place for the inexperienced and won't drive you into an early grave.
Most of your co workers are easy going.
Very pro women. (Almost all the project management and much of senior management is female. )
HR does a few fun things to engage people and offset the conservative clique culture.
Family friendly.Cons
Range of technologies and project types are limited 90% microsoft (WPF) projects. Possibility of getting stuck with a legacy project (more than 10 years old) which means career death and must be avoided at all costs.
Late/incorrect resource allocation harming projects and management not accepting the impact this will have on schedule. You might end up having to suck it up without even an apology.
Management culture does not get current tech culture (lacks vision and a bit awkward, zero googliness . )
Dependent on a handful of critical clients which has hurt them in the past.
Some of the leadership didn't understand the projects they were running. Client communication is spotty so you must carefully check the information you are given since it can be way off the mark leading to frustration and screw ups. (Set up to fail)
There are a few interesting people here and there but be careful since not all the smiles are sincere. Beware of getting thrown under the buss.
There are those who will find this company to be OK/safe and those who will find it boring, dead end and alienating. So caveat emptorAdvice to ManagementAdvice

Spent the day wandering around Madeira. We purchased tickets for the hop on bus again and saw all the interesting points on the small island. We returned to the ship for the sail away at 4 pm.

Marketing Like Miley: Five Lessons Learned
Unless you've been living under a rock for the last 48 hours, you know that Miley Cyrus was a featured performer on the VMA's and performed some unusual material. And while people all over the country - well, actually the world - are questioning her performance (myself included), let's take a moment to look at it solely from an apartment marketing perspective, okay? 1. Miley's like a property that is undergoing renovation. Her old reputation as Hannah Montana, a Walt Disney creation, wasn't about to continue to sell in today's pop music economy. She's outgrown the wig wearing, double life persona who sang such bubble gum pop as "The Hoedown Throwdown" and "Best of Both Worlds". She's got to tear down the clubhouse, throw out the white appliances and put in finishes that will SELL to the audience that buys today's pop music. Much like we are creating apartments that sell to the 25-34 demographic. 2. The old marketing campaign has to go. Just like many of us are tossing print in lots of markets (and no, this isn't a discussion of print -vs- online), Miley has to create a campaign that makes people TALK. She's gone totally social with her marketing. And her latest performance garnered 4.5 MILLION Twitter mentions, at a rate of 306,100 TWP (Tweets Per Minute). I'd say that's successful, wouldn't you? 3. She's got other people talking about her 'product'. Much like our beloved Resident Referral, Miley's got people talking. I just typed "Miley Cyrus VMA" into Google and received 449,000,000...
Craigslist: Back to Basics
Craigslist is free, and more of your apartment marketing peers are using it than ever before. Successful Craigslist posts are easier than you might think -- they start with being comprehensive and correct. First, how's your title? Superlatives like SPECTACULAR APARTMENT! don't mean much unless they're accompanied by selling points like new kitchens, dogs welcome or free utilities. Next, get the most from Craigslist by filling in the extra data they ask for, like location, laundry, street parking and bed/bath information. Add photos manually, even if your posting tool includes them. This takes time, but it helps you highlight the features renters are looking for, and makes it easier for them to find you with Craigslist search tools. Proof your ad once. Twice. Then again. Are there spelling or formatting errors? Did you include a phone number? Finally, go to Craigslist and manually search for your post. Don't rely on your posting tool to tell you it's live -- that doesn't necessarily mean it's visible on the site. If it's there, great; check for stray spelling or html errors. But if you can't find it, delete your post and try again with a different ad or from a different account. If it still doesn't appear, you may need to re-think your posting strategy -- and that's the subject of next month's post....
Are you really marketing to your customer?
Ask yourself, are you really marketing to your customer? Or are you like most of us and unknowingly marketing to yourself? It's a tough distinction for some of us to grasp. All too often, our marketing pieces talk about our company, our brand. You might be wondering, what is wrong with that? The problem is that it doesn't give your potential customer the WIFM in the few seconds that they're looking at your advertising materials. The, "What's In It For Me" factor. We often don't really consider what our customers' needs are when we are working on headlines, copy, emails, etc. Our advertising materials go on about the features of our product, not the benefits. The features, though important to us, definitely aren't the focus of our customer. Think about your customer and what's important to them. They want to know the benefits to them, the WIFM. "Our community is gated" "Our offices are spacious" "Our landscaping is remarkable." These are the features of your property. Why not change the focus from features to the benefits to your customer? "Our community is gated" becomes "Controlled access for your convenience" "Our offices are spacious" becomes "Wow your clients with your huge office" "Our landscaping is remarkable" becomes "Enjoy nature as you walk around your beautiful new community" If you find it hard to change that way of thinking, sit down with a piece of paper and write down all the features of your property or your community. Then next to them, write...
Responsive vs. Non-Responsive: Why Changes in Web Design Matter for Apartment Marketing
Sometimes technology and the Internet can seem like a constantly morphing wild beast you just can't seem to catch. You're busy making sure apartments are occupied, accounts balanced, staff well-trained. Keeping up with the latest technology tweaks or Google's latest algorithm changes isn't at the top of your priority list. Nor should it be. However, when it comes to your websites, Responsive is a word you should know. Responsive Web Design (RWD) is still fairly new, only beginning to gain mainstream traction in late 2012. RWD is the solution to the ever-expanding arsenal of devices that are able to browse the Internet. There are no longer standard screen sizes. It's the exact opposite. A device seems to be created every day to fill the screen size gap between two existing devices! At its most basic, Responsive Web Design is what it sounds like: your website literally responds to the width of the browser. This means that if you resize your Firefox or Chrome browser window on your desktop, a RWD site will adapt, photos will resize, text and other blocks may change location to respond to the height and width change. In the very recent past, most sites had a desktop site and a mobile site, literally two different websites that had to be separately built and maintained. And then any screen sizes in between (smart phones, iPad and other tablets) were just left hanging, sometimes being served the desktop, sometimes the mobile, depending on the developer and the site...

How to Create Organic Videos for Marketing
Have you seen those videos featuring Southwest Airlines flight attendants doing their pre-flight instructions in VERY untraditional ways? Here is a link to one of their videos. One of my favorite video series are the ones that IBM produced called "The Art of the Sale." This is what happens when "The Office" meets corporate video. Here is the link to a video. Before I ever set foot on a Southwest airplane I had already "fallen in love" with their brand and their company, because of the reputation they've developed through videos like these. I was even more suprised to see the IBM videos, and it made me like them even more; especially since I always imagine IBM to be like stuffy business folks in extra pressed white dress shirts all sitting around a corporate conference room table. It was refreshing to see a different side of IBM. What does this have to do with you? You can harness the same power of video to reach new clients or to strengthen the bond you have with your existing ones. Let me explain further... When I managed a community I decided to create videos with an inexpensive Flip camera, inexpensive (even free) editing software and some creativity. What we did was to make short (usually 30 second to one minute) videos that we uploaded to YouTube. We then put the links in our Craiglist ads to try and make our postings a little "stickier." Obviously, you're not...
Leasing Clydesdale style
The best Super Bowl commercial and leasing…what do that have in common? Only everything! The commercial voted as the best by the millions of Super Bowl watchers, the Budweiser Clydesdale spot, didn't show one drop of beer, not one word was spoken, yet it ranked in the top spot by viewers. Why? It created emotion. The 60 second spot created more emotion than any other ad in the 4+ hour sports spectacular. The tear jerker ad showed the bond between the young colt and his trainer, the progression of the bond as the colt grew up, moved away to his Budweiser destiny, in the end, the separation and then the uniting of the two. Simply a true, sweet, story creating emotions. Emotional selling works. It works for beer, and it works in leasing apartments. And in my opinion, you have a head start with someone's home in the forefront. An apartment home is much more emotional than say…beer. So why not get a little emotional with your apartments, someone's soon to be home? Get vested, start caring and watch the leases pour in. Now, please pass the tissues... ...
Apartment Website Traffic Thwarts National Averages
Just this month, Safari celebrated its 10 year anniversary as Apple Inc.'s landmark web browser for the Mac operating system. Since it was first released in 2002, Safari has taken over an admirable 13 to 15 percent of the U.S. market, through its use of products like Apple's MacBook, iPad, and iPhone. But overall, Internet Explorer (IE) has managed to sustain its 13-year reign as America's most widely used web browser.* However, when you narrow-in on web traffic to apartment websites, these distinctions do not hold true. The people who are visiting apartment websites display a far different manner than the average web surfer. In addition to this month being Safari's 10th Birthday, it is also the month that Safari surpassed Internet Explorer as the most used browser by visitors to ProspectPortal. Of the approximately 7 million visitors to apartment websites we monitored over 30 days, 30% were on Safari compared to 28% on Internet Explorer. Okay, granted, it's only a 2% difference. But looking at a cross section of apartment website traffic, it's largely defiant of national averages. This brings up a lot of questions about who prospects are, how they're discovering multifamily communities online, and what this means for the future of multifamily technology. Apple, P.C., and Overdone StereotypesIf you weren't aware of it before, the elite phenomenon that is the Mac user was strongly communicated when Apple launched its "Get a Mac" campaign with a series of "I'm a Mac, I'm a PC" commercials from 2006 to 2010,...

Can you clarify what your interests are? My husband and I have stayed in Cannon Beach--just south of Seaside--but we were mostly there to hike (and the hiking is fantastic), so that's about the only thing I can offer some advice on. And when are you going?
Report Abuse
Leaving in just a day or two. We're all in our 60s and active so love the outdoors. But one of us is recovering from some leg surgery so big hiking won't be possible this trip. Short stuff may be possible. Love good food, theatre, the ocean, stunning views.

North - Astoria, fabulous Cape Disappointment State Park (WA side) with its lighthouses, rocks, and Lewis and Clark center.
South - Cannon Beach, Depoe Bay, Newport, Yachats... many state parks on the coast.
East - Portland and Columbia Gorge are doable in a long day trip, or McMinnville and the wine country around Yamhill County.

We hiked in Ecola State Park (Cannon Beach)--the Clatsop Loop to be exact. It's a 3-mile trail, and I don't remember the hike being strenuous. It was a foggy, misty day, and the trail looked like something out of a fairytale. It was gorgeous. We witnessed a Coast Guard rescue of a surfer from the trail as well. The park is worth visiting even if you don't intend to hike. The drive up to the trailhead was also gorgeous. Cannon Beach itself will be nice, although I have to wonder if you'll find some places shutdown for the season. I sure hope not!
If you spend time in Portland, we enjoyed the Japenese Gardens.

Thanks very much, Gardyloo! Great ideas!

Thanks Indyhiker! Appreciate the benefit of ur experience.

Just to add to the good info already Yes, the hiking at Ecola is not difficult at all. Also, things do not close for the season around here, except outdoor dining Here in OR, if things just down due to the rain, etc we would never get outside So come and enjoy, and honestly, I think the coast is great in the cold/rain. It is beautiful is a very different way, and of course there is a lot more solitude since many people come in the better weather.

If Newport is in your range, try the Oregon Coast Aquarium.
Also be sure to visit the Tillamook cheese factory for great cheese and ice cream.

Thx to all! How about some 'must see' places, eateries, foto-ops in Portland? What are ur favs?

I have been going to Cannon Beach and Seaside Oregon every year for 29 years and still love it. Ecola State park is very enjoyable and worth a few hours. There is an 10 minutes or so walk up a path to beautiful views of the Paciic Ocean and Haystack rock. Cannon Beach town has tons of shops and places to eat. If you love pizza, Fultano's has the best in the world. Tillamook is about an 2 hour drive south where you can visit the Cheese factory and get free samples of cheese and watch the factory workers work.

Cannon Beach to Tillamook is only one hour, without stops

Last month, DW and I rode the train from Eugene to Portland, spent 6 hours in Portland and got back to Eugene by 10PM. We were home by midnight.

text: Future Food Aid Regime Comments by Thomas Hoerz, Director, on behalf of Cornelia Füllkrug-Weitzel, Executive Director of Diakonie Katastrophenhilfe. General Remarks: The current food aid convention (FAC) is an instrument built around a mechanism to guarantee that donor countries' food surpluses are made available as food aid. It was therefore for many years driven by donor interests. Critical points were raised by civil society groups over the years. Food aid has a dangerous potential – if not delivered properly and in a careful manner- to undermine food security. Food aid, often sourced in donor countries partially as a means of surplus disposal, can undermine local production and trade because it negatively affects local markets and the prices poor small-holder farmers receive for their production. Such tied aid is at the same time often culturally and environmentally inappropriate. It often comes too late (especially when shipped internationally) and is in most cases more expensive than would be the purchase of local or regional surpluses. One could observe changes that during the last years. Donors reacted to such problem and food aid policies changed for many donors. More and more countries do no longer use (only) surplus food to meet food aid commitment, but started to pledge financial resources in order to buy food aid from local or regional surpluses. Today a good understanding has developed, when in-kind food aid can be useful and under what conditions cash transfers are preferable as instruments. Food aid was driven for too long from the perspective of the instrument itself. Instead, we argue, it would be better for a future food aid regime to try and adequately respond to the problem of food insecurity. In other words, shift from a focus on the tool to the focus on the problem: widespread hunger. The timespan before the renegotiation of the FAC should be used to revisit the strengths and weaknesses of the current system and to 'think beyond the box'. How would a sensible future food aid regime look like that will allow to adequately respond not only to effects, but also to causes of hunger and food insecurity? How would it be organise? In which institutional setting would it be housed? We consider it a helpful start to focus on Seven comments on the evolution of a future food aid regime: 1. A new food aid regime is needed, including a commitment of donors to provide resources in order to meet the needs of food insecure groups with either financial support to purchase adequate food or direct provision of food in situations where local markets do not provide enough food. Each provision of cash or food aid must be a response to real food insecurity. Depending on the situation, we need to set up criteria for the use of either instrument. Any future commitment must be a commitment to sufficient, appropriate, timely and predictable food aid with clear reporting and monitoring mechanism allowing to avoid misuse of the instrument. The current commitment has not been overly relevant, because the last four decades worldwide surpluses were always available and actual food aid surpassed commitments regularly. This might change, or the prices for staple foods might go up considerably – due to the effects of climate change and due to the future use of agricultural produce for bio-fuel. A future commitment should cover both, commitments in kind and in cash in order to guarantee an international minimum reserve of food supplies that can be made available in emergencies and large scale food deficit situations. 1 2. A future food aid regime should be part of a functioning global food security architecture: Food aid is one component of an overall package of policy measures needed to guarantee food security for all. Moreover, food aid must be implemented in a way that it does not harm food security of the poor. Therefore, a future food aid regime should be part of a broader overall food security architecture that should be driven by the needs of vulnerable and food insecure populations. Such an architecture has to cover different modes and forms of interventions, from early warning, disaster preparedness up to broader support to food security, agriculture and rural development. It is beyond the reach of the conference to explore the overall structure, but the future aid regime should fit into the overall system of response to food insecurity and vulnerability to hunger. 3. A future food aid regime should be problem focused, based around the objectives to prevent famine, reduce hunger towards improved food security. It will have a focus to providing resources in emergency situations, but it should not be limited to emergencies only. Food based interventions can also be useful in situations of structural hunger and malnutrition, in particular when recipient countries are missing resources to implement their own obligations to fulfil a minimum core of the right to adequate food. 4. A future food aid regime should include sound needs assessments and a variety of instruments. Sound needs assessments have been described by the voluntary guidelines on the right to adequate food (see 6 below). Food aid must be targeted especially to food insecure and vulnerable groups. Food Aid must be demand driven. "…donor states should provide assistance in a manner that takes into account food safety, the importance of not disrupting local food production and the nutritional and dietary needs and cultures of recipient populations." A sound needs assessment is the precondition for guaranteeing that food aid is provided problem-oriented. After the assessment, the best instruments need to be selected from a defined toolbox. All defined instruments / tools should count as commitment of a new food aid regime. The discussion which instruments are best suited under which circumstance is quite developed in literature and the SOFA 2006 report of the FAO summarizes the lessons learnt quite well. If food aid has to be delivered in kind, promoting local and triangular purchase is a first choice. Only if local markets do not function or food is not available in kind, direct distribution of food aid has a role. Cash transfer should be promoted wherever markets are functioning and robust. It is beyond the reach of these comment to present and reflect on the rich literature that has emerged around cash transfer, but a growing body of knowledge is available, when and under which conditions which intervention is sensible. 5. A new institutional setting is needed with a broader representation of stakeholders: The membership must be broadened to include new food aid donors but also representation from food aid recipient countries. Participation should also be guaranteed for input from other stakeholders, particular non-governmental organisations and social movements. The setting should fully integrate the aspects of humanitarian law and the perspective of disaster preparedness and of early warning systems. What is needed is the establishment of a more functional and effective international system that helps to deal more effectively with emergencies and natural and human made disasters and which are not governed by political and commercial concerns of some donor countries but as a part of a broader problem-oriented food security architecture. 6. A new food aid regime should be human rights based: Important criteria for a renegotiation of the FAC, or for any other form of institutional setting in which food aid is organized in future, can be drawn from the right to adequate food. A 2 human rights frame allows to identify the obligations of both recipient and donor governments vis-à-vis the vulnerable population. Obligations of recipient states are detailed explained in the Genereal Comment No. 12 on the right to adequate food, adopted by the UN-Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in 1999. The obligations of donor cover the obligation to 'do no harm'. The text of the "Voluntary Guidelines to support the progressive realization of the right to adequate food in the context of national food security" (VG-RtF) describes the obligations of donor countries in more details and contains already important criteria how food aid should be organized and how it should be integrated into long term rehabilitation and development objectives (Guideline 15.4). Guideline 15 is on international food aid and Guideline 16 on natural and human-made disasters. The VG-RtF were adopted in November 2004 unanimously in the FAO-Council. The VG make clear that food aid must be based on a sound needs assessment and that it must be targeted especially to food insecure and vulnerable groups. Food Aid must be demand driven. "…donor states should provide assistance in a manner that takes into account food safety, the importance of not disrupting local food production and the nutritional and dietary needs and cultures of recipient populations." The VG highlight that a clear exit strategy must exists and that no dependency should be created. The distribution of food aid should be done without discrimination towards any group or individual in a country. Guideline 16 widens the context by highlighting that food aid delivery must respect the standards of international humanitarian law and that refugees and internally displaced persons should also have access at all times to adequate food. It also highlights the need to have an adequate and functioning mechanism of early warning in place in order to prevent or mitigate the effects of natural or human made disasters. 7. A new food aid regime must give binding guidelines for shaping the structure of national decision making on food aid. This includes recommendations on the membership of a national food aid or food security committee, including state and non-state stakeholders, the UN and donors. The main task of such a committee would be to pool and analyse available information, trigger alarm and make choices which instruments from the 'toolbox' (see 4. above) are effective and efficient to combat hunger. Recommendations beyond food aid to address the underlying causes of hunger would inform decision makers of development programmes and link them in a synergic way to the national food aid regime. The experience of national food aid committees can feed back into the cyclical 'renovation' of the international food aid regime and the surrounding future food security architecture. In conclusion: The new food aid regime should be in line with other recent international agreements including the Voluntary Guidelines on the Implementation of the Right to Adequate Food adopted by the FAO members, the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, the Good Humanitarian Donorship Principles and the SPHERE Standards. It should be an organic part of a wider food security architecture that includes agriculture, rural development and poverty alleviation programmes. ========== 3

Movie Review
"Michael Clayton" | It's an ensemble, and Swinton seals the deal
Seattle Times movie critic
Movie review
120 minutes. Rated R for language, including some sexual dialogue. Pacific Place (expands to additional theaters Oct. 12).
There's a key casting decision in "Michael Clayton" that instantly raises this film above nearly every Hollywood thriller this year — and it isn't George Clooney, good as he is. Smartly written and directed by Tony Gilroy (screenwriter of the "Bourne" movies), "Michael Clayton" is the story of a "fixer" (Clooney), a former prosecutor employed by a law firm to clean up their messes. When one of the firm's lawyers (Tom Wilkinson) seems to fall apart during the negotiations for a settlement involving an agrochemical company's potentially dangerous product, Michael is called in to calm things down. Soon, he's facing off with the chemical company's chief counsel, Karen Crowder (Tilda Swinton).
In a typical Hollywood thriller, the role of Karen might be played by a pretty up-and-comer, or by a young star (Katie Holmes playing a lawyer in "Batman Begins" comes to mind) seeking to enhance her credibility. But by putting Swinton in the role, the entire chemistry of the film changes: It's not a star vehicle for Clooney (even if the trailers make it appear that way) but an actors' showcase.
Swinton, with her pale-as-paper skin and eerily precise diction, is a unique and arresting presence, and she seems to go through her entire screen time in this movie without taking a deep breath. Her character is tightly wound, newly promoted and a little terrified. At the beginning, we see her rehearsing speeches in her bathroom mirror, carefully intoning meaningless corporatespeak, gradually smoothing her glassy words like wrinkles being pressed out of silk. Karen almost believes what she's saying — if you don't look too closely at her eyes. For an actress who's often called upon to convey steely, scary strength (see her White Witch in "The Chronicles of Narnia" or her jilted lover in "Broken Flowers"), it's a performance of great vulnerability, and its details are fascinating to watch.
But it's not just her movie; Gilroy's cast does fine work all around. Wilkinson is wonderfully unhinged as a lawyer gone off the rails as he realizes the possible damage done by the company he's defending — "I have blood on my hands! I am Sheba, the god of death!" he blusters, all King Lear-ish in the wind. Sydney Pollack, as Michael's boss, is wryly funny. And Clooney, that most effortless of movie stars, gives a smart and perfectly pitched performance as the center around which the others swirl. This is Gilroy's first film as director; I can't wait to see what he's got next.

Role of personal faith in the presidency debated by Republican candidates
Matt Rourke, Associated Press
As the field of candidates narrows and the election creeps ever closer, the Republican presidential debates are becoming not just more spirited, but more spiritual.
Faith, family and fidelity are becoming themes, and the media has taken notice.
"That's why Newt Gingrich points to his religious conversion when asked about cheating on his wife. It's why Mitt Romney highlights his 43-year marriage, and Rick Santorum is photographed with his seven smiling children," noted Meredith Heagney of the Columbus Dispatch. "Even long-shot candidate Ron Paul has released a 'statement of faith' saying that Jesus is his savior."
Romney is Mormon, while Gingrich and Santorum are both Catholic (Gingrich converted from Protestantism). Paul is an evangelical Christian.
The Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life conducted a poll in January that said Republican and GOP-leaning voters are tipping toward Romney, with few differences among religious groups.
NPR did a live blog during the debate Thursday night, including a section on how religion would influence each candidate. It quoted Paul as saying his religious beliefs "affect my character and the way I treat people and how I live."
Romney said he "would also seek the guidance of Providence in making decisions."Gingrich claimed his very candidacy was driven in part by what he perceives as a "war against religion," especially Christianity, in the media. Presidents, he noted, "should go to God; they should seek guidance."
And the blog noted that Santorum called America the only nation with founding documents that include "God-given rights," adding that "faith has everything to do" with the decisions a president would make.
Religion has long been an issue in presidential elections and strong support from religious groups can make or break a candidate. Former Pres. Jimmy Carter's acknowledgement that he was "born again" helped him woo evangelical Christians in his bid for election in 1976. "Since then, evangelical Christian voters have been a major political consideration for Republicans and Democrats alike, says Kane Farabaugh of VOAnews.com.
"The tendency of candidates to emphasize their faith on the campaign trail is something former President Carter says is over-emphasized as the race for the Republican Party presidential nomination swings through conservative and religious southern states," she wrote.
Carter told her that he's less concerned about a candidate's specific faith than the "basic moral character, the basic principles put forward by the potential president."
LifeWay Research, a Christian research organization, polled on the topic in September. It found just over 16 percent of Americans said they are more likely to vote for a candidate who regularly shares religious beliefs. Another 30 percent said they'd be less likely to vote for a candidate expressing religious activity. And 28 percent said the don't care. The other 22 percent said it depends on the religion.
The survey noted that Americans 18-29 and 30-49 are more apt to select "depends on the religion." Those 65 and older are most likely to say a candidate's expression on religion wouldn't impact their choice.

Nine-year old Joshua Brown, St. Louis' biggest fan, passed away
Jun 3, 2013, 10:19 AM EST
Joshua Brown, a nine-year old cancer patient that had befriended the St. Louis basketball team during the 2012-2013 season, passed away over the weekend.
Brown had been connected with the Billikens through a program called Friends of Jaclyn that links children with brain tumors to college sports teams. He had suffered from glioblastoma multiforme.
Brown was decked out at St. Louis home games in a Billiken jersey, and even traveled with the team to San Jose for their opening weekend in NCAA tournament play. He was so dedicated to St. Louis, that he wouldn't let his fandom be bought by a kind gesture and a care package from Butler back in February. Every sports fan can respect that.
Tom Timmerman of STLToday.com wrote a terrific story on Brown's friendship with the players on the St. Louis team back in January. For a team that was still reeling from the loss of their former coach Rick Majerus, Brown did just as much to help the Billikens heal as they did to cheer him up in his final months.
Josh packed an awful lot of passion into a small body. And he did an awesome Jim Crews impression. He'll be missed.
— Tom Timmermann (@tomtimm) June 3, 2013
Our biggest fan passed away today. You will be missed Joshua. Please send your thoughts and prayers to Rhonda, Doug and Allison.

RIP Joshua. This little guy was an inspiration. I think this tweet from Scout.com's BillikenReport writer Ben Weixlmann says it best:
Ben Weixlmann @BWeixScout:
"If you asked any #SLU player, they would tell you that Joshua Brown meant as much to them as anyone else inside their locker room. RIP."

E3 2014: Assassins Creed Unity Gameplay Demo at Ubisoft Press Conference
A sweet gameplay demo for Assassin's Creed Unity presented by Ubisoft at E3 2014.
Is it the "Watch Dogs" game-engine?
Very similar, they just changed the textures...
Very strange Paris they made - the public is very static (like in Watch dogs), there's NO ANY "street salesman" at all - which was very popular kind of products selling in that time (there was no stores in our kind of meaning) - where's all this?
Also, if there are a lot of interiors, as it looks like it might, this could be so much fun
movement looks like 50 percent more G.
Could be sweet
Wasn't really interested in this when i heard about it at first, but now i want...that looks amazing!
more of the same then
So are you playing as a revolutionary, and pro-aristocrat, or neither?
I think they will keep the same quality (mostly) because there is no version for the previous Gen,
which requires them to reduce the graphics quality,
I really hope that they wiil keep the same quality, it is really looks amazing!
Don't sound very French do they?
I really hope like in previous games I can play in a different language with English subs. This game requires French voices.
if only it would look and play like this when its out, but anyway i am feeling that the Assassin vs Templar is fully back on, we actually might have a story here, i am excited.
@billzihang It sounds like the protagonist has no love for either side - he says the people who had the King executed were just as vile, and refers to Robespierre's men (the revolutionaries) as thugs. The first demo (set at the beginning of the Revolution) had him helping the crowd and throwing the noble to them. This is set years later, so maybe the main character is sympathetic to the revolutionaries at first but becomes disillusioned.

Rudy Gay trade: Bryan Colangelo weighs in on Raptors trade
Sacramento increased its talent level, former Raptors GM tells Sacramento Bee.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Former Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo, asked about the monster, seven-player trade that saw Rudy Gay dealt to Sacramento, said the Kings have improved their talent leveL.
"I put a high premium on talent and character, and Rudy Gay has an abundance of both," Colangelo told the Sacramento Bee.
"Obviously, Pete (D'Alessandro) has a mandate to increase the talent level of his team as opposed to depleting it. This move is a pretty good indication of that."
In January, Colangelo, then Toronto GM, acquired Gay from Memphis Grizzlies in a package that included Jose Calderon and Ed Davis. It was a deal that was widely regarded as a salary dump by the Grizzlies.
Colangelo was dumped as Raptors GM in May and replaced by Masai Ujiri.
The latest trade by Ujiri is also seen as another salary dump.

ECAN works to make President's reflux diagnosis in wake of sore throat a "teachable moment" Public learns more about symptoms & risks of reflux through media
of President Obama's recent reflux
disease diagnosis could help save the lives of thousands of Americans living
with the same condition. After
complaining of a sore throat for weeks, the President was diagnosed with reflux disease. ECAN hopes
this announcement will be a teachable moment for those living with a persistent
sore throat and other symptoms that few associate with reflux disease. Most
of us don't think of a sore throat, hoarse voice, persistent cough or choking
when we lie down as symptoms of reflux disease, which mostly, we think of as heartburn.ECAN reached out to the media to make them aware of this important opportunity and several major news outlets ran reports on this subject (and more stories are to come!) Check out the Opinion piece written by ECAN's President and CEO published by the Detroit News, and news stories run by the St. Louis Examiner and the North Dallas Gazette."The focus of
national media on the fact that President Obama discovered his reflux
because of a persistent sore throat elevates the understanding of the
link between reflux and symptoms that aren't usually associated with the
condition," said gastroenterologist ECAN Chairman Dr. Bruce D.
Greenwald, professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine
and Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center.
understanding of the various – but often misunderstood – symptoms of reflux
disease could save lives because reflux disease is the cause of one of the
deadliest and fastest increasing cancers in the United States.

Ms. Mordecai serves as a Patient Advocate Representative on the Task Force that is focused on improving the clinical research that impacts Esophageal and Gastric cancer
"It's a great honor and priviledge to be selected as one of two advocates representing patients on this important Task Force," said Ms. Mordecai. "Because research dollars are so scarce, especially for Esophageal and Gastric cancers, the decisions made by this group can make a real difference in what can be accomplished in medical research in the future."The NCI Patient Advocate Steering Committee works to make the voice of patients heard as
important research decisions are made at the National Cancer Institute.
They Ran to Save Lives & Heal the Pain of Loss Daughters ran Marathons to support ECAN in Memory of their Dads Melissa Maguire ran the New York City Marathon
Melissa Maguire of Jersey City, New Jersey joined more than 50,000 runners in the 2014 New York
City Marathon. Along with fellow marathoners, Melissa had an unseen running buddy. "He may not be by my side anymore, but he is
not lost to me," said Maguire, speaking of her dad, James Maguire of Matawan, N.J., Her father was healthy and
active throughout his life. But in 2008 at the age of 60, he started experiencing pain
in his abdomen and was diagnosed with Stage IV Esophageal Cancer. "My father was my hero and life preserver," Maguire said. "I had been a daddy's girl my whole life and
the thought of losing him was crushing. I needed an outlet for my stress and it
turned out to be running."
An Executive Producer with NY1, New York City's 24-hour local TV news station, Melissa ran her first half-marathon in 2009 with her father
cheering from the sidelines. Sadly, the cancer eventually spread to his brain and James Maguire died
on Jan. 7, 2011.
With two marathons under her belt, Melissa decided to partner with ECAN for this year's New York City Marathon. You can still support Melissa's Marathon at www.crowdrise.com/milesformaguire/fundraiser/melissamaguire.
"I decided this time around to raise money for ECAN because
no one should have to say goodbye to their daddy when he's only 63," Maguire
said. "Heartburn should not be ignored
because, as ECAN's slogan says, it can cause cancer."
Jessica Sargent ran the Marine Corps Marathon
Among the more than 30,000 runners who participated in the 2014 Marine Corps Marathon through
Northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. on October 26th, one
25-year-old woman was running to save lives.
That's because Jessica Sargent wore the message that Heartburn can cause Cancer on her back
in the hope that other families won't have to suffer as hers did.
The week before her May 2013 wedding, her father, Thomas "Burnzy" Burns was diagnosed with stage III esophageal
cancer. Despite aggressive chemotherapy
and radiation treatments, a 14-hour surgery
and "his unwavering spirit," her father passed away, Oct. 25, 2013. He was 48 years old.
"Running has always been an outlet for me and it
took on a new role in my life as I coped with the loss of my father," said Sargent,
an ER
nurse at St Luke's University Hospital in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
"When I realized that the 2014 Marine Corps
Marathon would take place on the weekend that marks the one-year anniversary of Daddy's death, I immediately
knew that I needed to run it for him and all the other esophageal cancer patients that leave us too soon," she added. "While training for this marathon,
I felt
very close to my dad – as though he is right there with me cheering me along
with each step."
has partnered with ECAN and created a fundraising campaign in conjunction with
her participation in the marathon. Gifts
can be donated online at http://tinyurl.com/Jessica-ECAN-run.
with ECAN, I can help make people aware that heartburn can cause cancer."
Congressional Caucus on Deadliest Cancers ECAN active member of coalition backing the effort
A bipartisan caucus of the U.S. House of Representatives has been formed to focus attention on cancers with a survival rate of less than 50%, including Esophageal Cancer. The caucus was formed with the support of the Deadliest Cancers Coalition which is a collaboration of organizations, including ECAN, that are focused on these deadly cancers. A briefing was organized by the Congressional Caucus on the Deadlist Cancers drew a standing-room only crowd and featured remarks from co-chairs of the Caucus, including Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-CA, pictured here.ECAN is working to increase membership in the caucus and will launch a campaign to raise awareness among members of Congress about the need for more resources and public awareness about Esophageal Cancer and other of the deadliest cancers.

Utah Jazz show plenty of fight, but Spurs burst their bubble at the end
Spurs have the 1st of 4 chances to close series out on Monday
Tom Smart, Deseret News

Read more: Jazz-Spurs: Game 3 analysis
SALT LAKE CITY — Al Jefferson was right. As he predicted on Friday, the Utah Jazz did have one last bounce back in 'em.
Following back-to-back blowouts in the Alamo City, the Jazz bounced back against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday night.
Jefferson and Devin Harris played far better than they had.
Utah took a rare lead.
The Jazz were even within striking distance in the fourth quarter.
But — and this is a near-season-ending but — the Jazz just didn't have enough to get over the NBA's hottest team.
Barring a bounce back of historical proportions, the Jazz's postseason days are now numbered after they suffered a deflating 102-90 setback to the Spurs.
"It's a difficult loss. It puts you down 3-0 (in front of) our home fans here and on our home floor," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said. "It's a tough loss, but we've gotta learn our lessons from it. We've got to learn from what they do. They really understand the time and situation of the game and how they have to pick it up."
The Spurs, hoping to add a fifth NBA finals championship banner to their rafter, have the first of four opportunities to close out the Jazz and advance to the second round Monday at ESA.
"We've gotta keep fighting," Corbin said.
According to NBA history, that fight won't be enough. No team in the league has ever rallied to win a best-of-seven series after falling behind by three games.
According to this series' short history, the Jazz's odds seem just as extreme.
Much of the chatter about the Spurs revolves around their Big Three, and rightfully so. Tony Parker (27 points, six assists), Tim Duncan (17 points, six rebounds) and Manu Ginobili (10 assists, six points) each took turns punishing the Jazz's defense.
But yet again, the deep Spurs were lifted by stellar support guys like guard Danny Green (14 points), sub Stephen Jackson (13 points) and big bench man Tiago Splitter (10 points, eight rebounds).
"We expected them to have a much better effort, play a much better game, especially here at home," Duncan said. "Good win for us. We had a lot of guys really step up and play well for us."
"This is a great team. They make adjustments. They're used to everything," Corbin added. "We didn't get the energy or the sense of urgency when we had to at key points of the game."
Like when the Jazz allowed Ginobili to breeze up court and find a wide-open Matt Bonner for a buzzer-beating 3-pointer heading into the locker room.
And when the Spurs countered Harris' strong second-half opening by going on a 10-2 run capped by back-to-back treys from Green and Jackson to take a 70-63 lead over Utah.
And when Splitter scored six straight points to bridge the third and fourth quarters during a pivotal stretch when San Antonio took a 13-point lead early in the final period.
The killer moment came after Utah trimmed the Spurs' lead to 81-76 in the fourth when Parker led San Antonio on a game-clinching 9-2 surge.

I'm aware that API 3 doesn't allow a view to be set for a tab, but I still need to modify the TextView displayed as the indicator. I'd also like to change the Drawable for the tab, but I don't see a way to do it without a custom tab view as allowed in 1.6, API 4.
Working with this generic example below, is there way to retrieve the TextView and modify its properties or change the drawable?
TabHost tabHost = getTabHost();
TabHost.TabSpec spec;
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("nearby")
.setIndicator("Nearby Activity")
spec = tabHost.newTabSpec("friends")
.setIndicator("Friends & Favorites")
Thanks for any help.

GQ Eats: The 10 Best New Restaurants in America
America's food renaissance keeps expanding, in all kinds of creative directions—not all of them fancy. From a $20 million gamble in Manhattan to a desolate block in Oakland, our tireless food correspondent, Alan Richman, crisscrossed the country in search of the best and tastiest this land has to offer. Start booking those tables now
3. The Kitchen at Brooklyn Fare
Brooklyn, NY
All of a Sudden, the Toughest Table in New York
Five nights a week, chef César Ramirez offers the most outrageously fabulous meals in New York, prepared and served in a space that also acts as the prep kitchen of a grocery store on the same block. When I went early last year, the total number of seats was twelve. Recently he expanded to eighteen, and his partners have sprung for a seven-figure renovation. Yes, that's $1 million for one small room. It gleams. The food is of the moment and of the market, downtown Brooklyn's take on the chef's table. Ramirez, an ex–David Bouley protégé, is always there cooking, putting out at least twenty small courses, each a bite or three, aided by two assistants and a fellow by the name of Marcilino, the hardest-working dishwasher in New York. The food is close to French but has inspired twists—jumbo lump crab encased in kataifi (a Middle Eastern play on shredded wheat), bluefin toro in mustard-seed sauce, a Kumamoto oyster with grapefruit gelée and crème fraîche, bacalao with cod roe and microplaned black truffle. On my visit, Ramirez told the small assemblage that he refused to lower his standards, that his single goal was perfection. I don't think we would have failed to recognize that on our own.
Left: When you put out more than twenty courses per meal, like chef César Ramirez (right), dedicated assistants are key.

Firefighters battle 4-alarm blaze in Orem
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
OREM — Firefighters were at the scene of a four-alarm fire Friday that affected at least two businesses in Orem.
Individuals passing by the area of 1461 N. State Street reported the fire around 6:40 p.m., Orem Department of Public Safety Sgt. Craig Martinez said. Flames were first seen through the roof of Maltese Auto, an RV dealer and repair business. But the building houses a number of businesses, including an automobile dealership and repair shop as well as an automobile electric company.
"It was pretty big and pretty hot for quite a while," Martinez said of the fire.
Martinez said firefighters from four Orem fire stations and one Provo station responded to the scene, but were unable to get inside the building for almost an hour after the roof of the building collapsed.
"It wasn't safe for our firefighters," Martinez said.
No one was in the building when the fire started and all of the businesses were closed. Just after 8 p.m., Martinez said the fire was mostly contained.
Fire investigators were on-scene, but Martinez said they wouldn't be able to go in to assess the damage or look into the cause of the fire because the roof isn't structurally sound. It was anticipated they would be able to enter the building Friday.
Two lanes on southbound State Street were shut down while firefighters battled the blaze. Martinez said no other buildings were threatened, but that two families were displaced from a nearby trailer park due to the smoke.
The Utah branch of the American Red Cross reported that they went to site to provide canteen services to the firefighters.
Jim Wilson, who has owned the building for 20 years with his brother, said his brother called him and told him that the building was on fire.
"I thought he was just kidding, but when I found out he was serious I jumped in the car and came over," Wilson said. "By then, all the firefighters were here and they were trying to put out the flames."
Still, Wilson said his primary concern was safety.
"Fortunately no one was hurt," he said. "That was the important thing. Buildings can be rebuilt."

I'm having a project in BusinessEvents Studio (Eclipse) that I'm slowly turning into a Maven project. I've added m2e to BusinessEvents Studio and given the project a POM. Regardless of being in the "Studio Explorer" or the "Package Explorer" my
target folder is shown in the tree (though being set to "Derived"). That in itself is fine by me, though it looks odd.
Now my BusinessEvents Studio has gotten in a loop where it seems to run Maven (m2e), which writes to the
target folder, sees that something is written in the
target folder and subsequently rerunning Maven (m2e). It even does so when checking "Build Automatically" to off.
Note that the reason for Mavenizing is an attempt to unit test things, so there is a purpose for having Maven run alongside BusinessEvents.
This loop is annoying, but also I want to have Maven do more incremental build tasks, effectively introducing a lot of idle waiting for me, the developer, being made worse by this loop.
Your help much appreciated!
