HARRISONBURG, Va. - A Rockingham County judge has barred the media from being present during a hearing for two Harrisonburg teens accused of violently raping a woman at knifepoint.
The Daily News-Record reports ( http://www.dnronline.com) that Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court Judge David O'Donnell ruled Monday that media could not attend Tuesday's preliminary hearing because the newspaper had reported the juvenile suspects' names in a previous story. O'Donnell said he feared the victim's name would be published.
Daily News-Record City Editor Rob Longley said the paper's policy is not to publish the names of victims in sexual assault cases.
Several media outlets, including some who had not published the suspects' identities, argued Monday that the hearing should be public due to the seriousness of the allegations. The AP generally does not name juvenile defendants.
The two 16-year-old defendants are charged with breaking into a 22-year-old woman's apartment in October and robbing and repeatedly raping her.
The teens were arrested shortly after the incident, and prosecutors said they confessed during interviews with investigators. Investigators said the two teens were left together in an interview room alone as a video camera recorded them laughing and joking about the rape. They are being held at the Shenandoah Valley Juvenile Detention Center in Verona.
Rockingham County Commonwealth's Attorney Marsha Garst said she plans to charge the teens as adults. If O'Donnell finds probable cause at Tuesday's hearing, the case will be sent to the grand jury. If convicted, they could face up to life in prison.
In Virginia, hearings for juveniles who are 14 or older and charged with what would be a felony if committed by an adult are open to the public, but may be closed by the court for good cause. If closed, the judge must state its reasons in writing.

There are many ways to back up your system and your data. What's important is that you actually choose one and use it.
Written by Debbie Saugen
The most valuable component of any computer system isn't the hardware or software that runs the computer but, rather, the data that resides on the system. If a system failure or disaster occurs, you can replace the computer hardware and software that runs your business. Your company's data, however, is irreplaceable. For this reason, it's critical to have a good backup and recovery strategy. Companies go out of business when their data can't be recovered.

This exciting offering from the System i Modernization leader allows you to quickly, automatically and inexpensively modernize that green screen user interface that has been holding you back.

Editor's note: This article introduces the white paper "How to Avoid the Top Five Most Expensive Disk Issues" available free at the MC White Paper Center.
Why risk the disk? Many IT managers will be familiar with the "disk or die" ultimatums that a disgruntled system can issue and have felt the resulting fallout of poor performance, lost data, and, most commonly, the additional cost which can quickly run into many thousands of dollars of unplanned expense.

Flatline - $90
Car Stock - $35
Top Rail - $30
Reticle Sight - $60
MP5 Air Through Mag - $65
Remote Line - $55
Squishie Paddles - $20
Now I know not all of these are NEEDED but this is what I want, and thats not going to change and I know this may be hotly debated or people will just flat out marker bash or milsim bash but whatever, total I'm looking at $575 to have everything I want, I haven't included to cost of the HPA tanks because I'll need that no matter what marker I buy, so now what I'm asking is this, should I maybe stop now, and trade this marker in for something like a DP Fusion or DP G3?
I know the costs may not match up but I'm looking for bang for my buck, performance compared to cost plain and simple. Tippmann's are known for reliability so what I'm also looking at is how durable a gun is because I will be playing woodsball and I don't want to have to baby my marker and worry about it getting bumped around and such, that and being able to play speedball without a disadvantage would be nice, or should I just buy a second marker? What I'm saying is this, I've seen friends dump over a grand into their Tippmann's its ridiculous and really I see it as the equivalent of decking out a Chevy Cavalier with a bunch of useless visual mods that do nothing for performance to make it LOOK fast rather than just spending that money on a better car. So what your opinions here? any and all welcomed here.
P.S. I'm looking a total spending of about $800 for the marker and all included accesories needed (air tank, hopper etc) thanks for your thoughts, I look forward to reading them.

DIY iPhone dock is $30 less than Apple's version
Monday, June 15, 2009 - 12:51pm
Want your iPhone to stand vertically when it's plugged in to your computer but don't want to fork over $30 to Apple for an overpriced dock? Just make one yourself!
This recycled CD iPhone dock is made from, apty enough, a stack of CDs. To make it, the creator simply used a dremel to cut out the shape of the iPhone cable so it would fit right in. Pretty easy stuff, and a lot cheaper than Apple's piece of white plastic for $30.

Mortgage REITs May Be Safe to Buy
WMC's management teams wrote on its web site that, "We may opportunistically supplement our portfolio with RMBS that are not guaranteed by a U.S. Government agency or U.S. Government-sponsored entity, or non-agency RMBS, commercial mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed securities. My aforementioned article goes into more detail as to why.
Their stated goal is to provide attractive risk-adjusted returns to the investors over the long-term while taking into consideration a variety of market conditions and economic cycles. As I wrote in my article the share price is now currently below the "adjusted net book value of $19.42 as of March 31."
WMC debuted as a publicly-traded company in May 2012. Its 52-week high of $24.72 was established in September 2012. As you look at the one-year chart below you'll see what happened the last time shares of WMC corrected down to current price levels. Notice the rise in quarterly revenue too.

We may have already seen the bottom for mortgage REITs and if not it's probably is quite near. Buy low and then buy more if the shares go even lower.

I cannot precisely define civility, but I know when it is missing from our discussions on politics, religion, social issues. That is easy, because it is absent most of the time.
The country is in a funk. Candidates raise and spend millions telling us stuff that is either wrong or badly bent, and if we like what they say we cheer and call for more.
Civility is being eroded not just because of our people in Washington, but because of us — we are a big part of the problem. We have distorted the art of listening to people who don't agree with us, because obviously they are wrong. We are on the negativism binge. Most of us anyway — let those of us who are without sin (see, I can quote the Bible) stand up and be counted.
Some of the people who are supposed to represent us in Washington don't like one another and their big goal is to vote down ideas that come from the other side. They are like kids on the playground who threaten to take the ball and bat and go home.
What we are getting is an absolute aversion to compromise. In 1776, John Adams wrote that he feared the Continental Congress would make decisions dictated "by noise, not sense; by meanness, not greatness; by ignorance, not learning." But decency and respect won out — our current crop of politicians should read their history.
An item in the AARP Bulletin says that Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton and John Adams did not like one another, but they set aside their differences and achieved greatness for the nation. It can be done if politicians care, but many apparently do not.
They might care more if we demanded it.
We shut our minds to opposing views — even friends cannot discuss politics, religion and other issues that touch us all. We want to persuade, not explain, to talk, not to listen. I reckon that we can still talk about the Cubs, the price of gasoline, the quality of magazines in doctors' waiting room — stuff like that.
The presidential campaign will get nastier and less civil with each speech and costly ad. Civility is not on the political agenda, here or in the seats of power.
A newspaper story talked about the vulgarisms that some politicians use in their speeches. Maybe they think that will help them relate to us, you know, "The American People." Maybe they think that we want negativism, half-truths, vulgarisms, insults. Are they right?
I am an old guy — not old enough to remember Thomas Jefferson, but I can recall times when politicians blustered, but often compromised and did their work. Maybe we can blame this mess on computers, or steroids, or the high price of tickets to a ball game. Maybe it is in the water.
In a recent column I wrote that folks back home when I was a kid did not always agree, but they disagreed with civility.
Somehow, a fellow in Houston saw that and he called me. Tomas Spath and another Presbyterian minister co-founded "The Institute for Civility in Government." It is non-partisan. Maybe they can help us find the lost civility gene. They have a high mountain to climb and they will need help.
They can be reached on the Internet at www.instituteforcivility.org.

The So So Glos' new music video for "Wrecking Ball" (a track off Blowout, one of our Album of The Week picks in April) is seriously something to behold. Brendhan Bowers directed this short film starring the band, who does get around to playing the fantastic tune, but allows for a surreal build of plot, waiting for just the right action packed moment to drop the song on us. It's as if Bowers has tried to condense all the punk-fantasy and B-movie weirdness of Repo Man into a seven minute clip. Watch below.
Blowout is out now on Shea Stadium Records.

I agree that James should have been the hire!!! Stefani never stepped up to PM, and just flew UTR the whole season. If The Apprentice should survive for another season, she and Trump have set a bad precedent. Why would future candidates willingly step up and put a bullseye on their chests if they don't have to anymore?
I told Mrs. Tanbuns that I wasn't gonna watch it again, but like you TheCinera I probably will. But if this show is gonna survive, Trump needs to do these things .....1) Move it back to NY City.2) Get rid of the mamby-pamby tasks3) Forget the sleeping in tents idea4) Deep six the PM until you lose idea

Dark Iron Ingots are purple-colored ingot from Factorization. They are created by placing a Dark Iron block in a crafting table. Dark iron blocks are obtained by placing Iron blocks on the ground and lighting them on fire with a Wrath Igniter. Multiple iron blocks can be lit on fire with one use of the Wrath Igniter, however all of the iron blocks must be touching in order for them to burn each other. Once the wrath fire goes away (Circular flames), Vanilla Minecraft fire appears. Vanilla fire can simply be punched out to prevent burning of the player. Once the process of creating Dark Iron Blocks is over, a player may collect all of the blocks with an Iron Pickaxe or greater tool.
Dark Iron Ingots can be crafted from 1 Block of Dark Iron as following:

- A Project For: Madeline
- Age: Newborn
- Location: North Carolina
- Description: Madeline's nursery is meant to inspire her to reach well beyond the boundaries of her geography - let's go!
- Design Inspiration: Other project nursery rooms inspired the wall stencils. The color palette had to feature orange - so we paired it with pink when we found out we were having a little girl. We lived overseas in England for three years, so all of the places on the walls, we've been to and all of the postcards, we collected, and the lamp is full of bills and coins from the countries we visited....
- Decorating Style: Random
- Project Details: Almost everything is second-hand, from our home, or from discount stores. I handmade all of the cloth goods - quilts, curtains, pillows, bedding - from fabric found around town. The rug is from Macy's, the chair is from Ikea, the rest is from all over the place! Dresser - yard sale Desk - antique store Changing table - thrift store Black metal toy box - antique store Crib - consignments store Ottoman - handmade Stencils - handmade, handpainted Accessories - TJMaxx, Ross, thrift stores, eBay, or handmade
- Favorite Items: The wall stencils, the lamp filled with currency, the colors, the crib skirt, the ottoman, the pillows, the vintage Spanish and French postcards, the vintage train case/luggage for storing books and toys, and the baby, of course!
- Advice: I sketched out the fabric pairings before shopping. I also sketched out which furniture would go best with which walls. AND, I scoured Project Nursery for inspiration to do this on a budget!

Hundreds of violent felons improperly getting Cook County boot camp
By FRANK MAIN Staff Reporter November 21, 2013 8:05PM
Denzel Simons is charged in the murder of Kermit Delashment II.
Related Documents
Article Extras
Updated: December 23, 2013 11:19AM
Denzel Simons, 19, a first-time felon, stood before Cook County Circuit Judge Diane Cannon facing six to 30 years in prison for robbing a man at his Southwest Side home.
There was no way he was supposed to get boot camp — a break reserved for young, nonviolent offenders.
His victim was against it. He'd lost his wallet, with $290 inside, and took a beating from Simons' partner in crime, who pistol-whipped him.
What's more, Illinois law explicitly ruled out a boot camp sentence. Boot camp or probation aren't options for armed robbers like Simons. It's too serious of a crime.
But in a decision repeated again and again in recent years by Cook County judges, Cannon ignored the law.
She gave Simons boot camp anyway.
A Sun-Times survey of thousands of pages of court records found that since 2006, Cook County judges have handed down hundreds of improper boot camp sentences to violent felons.
Simons' case ended in tragedy.
Less than two years after he was sent to the four-month boot camp program, Simons was charged with murdering Kermit Delashment II, a 21-year-old college student with big dreams.
Delashment's death was the 500th killing of 2008 in Chicago.
Had Simons been sentenced to prison instead of boot camp, it's likely he would have still been behind bars at the time of the killing, law enforcement sources said. Cannon, though, argued Simons might have been out anyway if he had received the minimum prison sentence and gotten "good time" for behaving behind bars.
The victim's father is left to wonder what might have been.
"If the judge had followed that particular statute, I might still have my son, and my kids might have their brother," Kermit Delashment Sr. said. "He would have followed his dream. It is kind of hard to swallow."
In an interview, the judge acknowledged: "I am sure I have given sentences that were not the letter of the law."
"You got me," she said.
Between 2006 and 2011, Cannon sent 13 inmates who'd been convicted of armed robbery to the boot camp at the Cook County Jail.
In all, 17 armed robbers got such a break during that period in Cook County.
After their release from the program, 12 of those 17 men were arrested for new crimes.
One is now awaiting trial for another armed robbery. Two went to prison for financial crimes. Nine were charged with less serious crimes. And Cannon sentenced another to 10 years in prison for violating the conditions of boot camp.
The other judges at the time who sent defendants to boot camp for armed robbery were Evelyn Clay, Lon Shultz and Marcus Salone. None returned calls seeking comment.
Chief Cook County Judge Timothy Evans would not comment.
Armed robbery is a Class X felony, and under state law, judges can't hand out boot camp to those convicted of the crime.
The Sun-Times review of boot camp sentences also found about 150 people were in boot camp in 2012 and 2013 for simple robbery, burglary, residential burglary and aggravated battery resulting in great bodily harm — so-called "forcible felonies."
Hundreds of other forcible felons were in boot camp between 2006 and 2011.
Veteran prosecutors and judges interviewed by the Sun-Times said state law prohibits boot camp for forcible felonies, too, even though they are less serious than Class X crimes. The law says the program is for young men, ages 17 to 35, with nonviolent offenses.
Elon Love, 19, was among the 33 forcible felons in the boot camp earlier this month. Love was convicted of robbing a 66-year-old man. He and an accomplice hit the man in the back of the head, knocked him to the ground and stomped his head before stealing $100, prosecutors said.
Sentencing such criminals convicted of violent crimes to boot camp is "stunning to me," said John Maki, executive director of the John Howard Association, a prison system watchdog. "I don't understand why they would be doing that. The law is the law."
He pointed to a 2002 study backed by the Justice Department that said the inmates at Cook County boot camp "are not accepted into the program if they are convicted of, or have a history of, violent or sexual crime."
"They say the strength of the program is based on its screening process," Maki said. "You don't want to put offenders in there who are excluded by statute or dangerous."
Cannon, a former prosecutor, isn't known as a judge who routinely hands down light sentences. Indeed, court records show she often gives first-time offenders a chance, then drops the hammer when they blow it.
But she said that in light of the Sun-Times' findings, she won't sentence Class X offenders to boot camp in the future.
The boot-camp program — officially the Vocational Rehabilitation Impact Center — is on the jail campus near 26th and California. It's meant to instill discipline and teach job skills. Inmates raise chickens, tend a vegetable garden and go to class.
"They are learning to shower every day, get up and go to school every day," Cannon said. "A fraction of those people have GEDs — and when they get out, more than 50 percent of them get one. They participate in a carpentry program, counseling and anger management. Their graduation is the first graduation that 90 percent of those people have been to."
Simons did not have the background of a hardened criminal. He was captain of the swim team at Julian High School and a Chicago Park District lifeguard. His accomplice, Christopher White, worked for the Chicago Park District and a Subway restaurant and was hoping to play basketball on a scholarship at San Francisco City College.
But in November 2006, Simons, 19, and White, 18, robbed a man at his home in Beverly on the Southwest Side. Both were armed with BB handguns.
Simons stuck his pistol in the man's chest, and White clubbed him in the head with his gun before they fled with the man's wallet. Cannon sentenced them both to boot camp in April 2007.
About 20 months later, just before Christmas 2008, Simons and another accomplice allegedly killed Kermit Delashment II during a bungled robbery.
Delashment — who earned a degree in computer science from Olive-Harvey College and planned to go on to Southern Illinois University — was fatally shot as he sat in the rear seat of a car parked at 91st and Yale near his home.
Simons was arrested in 2010 in Delashment's killing. He and his co-defendant are awaiting trial on murder charges.
Delashment's dad said his son played basketball in junior college and was a standout but was "under the radar" of scouts and recruiters.
That fall, his 6-foot-5 son attended an NBA tryout in St. Louis and got encouragement there from pro scouts, according to Kermit Delashment Sr.
Not long before he was killed, the younger Delashment thanked his father for pushing him to obtain his associate's degree and attend the tryout.
"He was happy to have options," his father said. "He could have gone to a Division I school, or maybe go pro."
Delashment said the decision to sentence Simons to boot camp bothers him.
"The more that I have been thinking about it, I have become more and more angry about it, I really have," he said. "Because I really feel like if you had just did what you're on the bench to do, then we wouldn't be here.
"Certainly in this case, [Simons] wouldn't have even been involved in this incident."
In response, Cannon said: "To say I feel awful for any loss of life is an understatement. But, as a judge, you can't live in fear over future crimes. I don't have a crystal ball."
Prosecutors say they voice their objections in court when judges impose an improper sentence — as they did in Simons' robbery case — but generally don't appeal them.
Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez is now rethinking whether to appeal those sentences if judges continue to hand them down and is also looking into whether additional legislation is needed. Her spokeswoman, Sally Daly, noted that the boot camp statute allows the Cook County sheriff to refuse to admit ineligible inmates.
But the sheriff's office isn't ready to challenge judges' sentences, said Cara Smith, chief policy adviser for Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart. She said Dart feels his role is to screen inmates for whether they are mentally and physically fit for boot camp.
"The sheriff's office is at a disadvantage because we are not in court," Smith said. "We believe the judges and state's attorney will look more closely at the eligibility of them being there."
Maki, of the John Howard Association, said judges, the sheriff's office and prosecutors need to take a hard look at the boot-camp program.
"What happened to this program?" he said. "If there is evidence that boot camp is not working, we need to fix it or throw it out."

Paid Leave for Professional, Job-Related Development
P&S employees who have been employed with the college for a minimum of two years may apply for a paid leave of up to one month (with possible exceptions) for the purpose of professional, job-related development. This program is intended to provide skills and experiences that will be beneficial to both the employee and the college, and is not intended to replace regularly supported staff development.
There is no limit to the number of applications an employee may submit; however, staff may only obtain an approved developmental leave once every two years. Staff members who change positions within the Henry B. Tippie College of Business should serve a minimum of six months in their current position to be eligible for this program.
View and print a copy of the Request for Paid Leave for Professional, Job-Related Development. This form will require a written proposal, which explains how the program of study, research, or other professional activity will contribute to the development of the staff member and the improvement of the college. The applicant must have approval of the departmental executive officer or relevant supervisor and dean, and should propose a leave during a time that does not create significant work conflicts.
Such leaves are granted with the requirement that the recipient return to the dollege thereafter for a minimum of double the length of time of the approved leave. At the conclusion of the leave, a brief written summary of the experience must be submitted to the Dean's Office and to the staff member's supervisor.
A subcommittee of the Elected Staff Council will review the applications and submit recommendations to the dean. The dean (or official designee) will review all applications and will consider the recommendations of the ESC subcommittee before making final decisions. Selection will be competitive, and the college reserves the right to limit the number of individual P&S staff members who qualify annually. A limited amount is available each semester and gifts may range in value in reaction to the number of requests received.

Krauss-Maffei Wegmann Supplies LEGUAN Bridge Layers to Sweden
Krauss-Maffei Wegmann have signed a contract with the Swedish procurement authorities...
Krauss-Maffei Wegmann has developed a portable Bridge for Light Forces, thus fulfilling a requirement of the German Armed Forces to cross gaps. The bridge is characterised by its:
The bridge cross section, in form of a U, has a structural height of 0.8 m and a total width of 3.71 m. Determined by the kerbsides the carriageway width is 2.75 m. The modular bridge length is expandable in lengths from 4.8 m to 21.6 m (2 to 9 modules). The maximum gap that can be bridged is 20 m.
A 9-module bridge weighs approximately 4.3 tons. With exception of the couplings, the bridge is made entirely from carbon fibre composite material. Figures 1 and 2 show a 4-module bridge.
Military load class is MLC 12 for wheeled and tracked vehicles. Exceptionally, MLC14 vehicles can cross the bridge at walking speed provided they keep to the centre of the carriageway.
The low cycle fatigue has been analysed on the basis of vehicle crossing tests. The side and carriage way girders have sustained more than 10,000 crossings without adverse effects concerning serviceability and load carrying capacity.
The technical requirements led to a modular bridge concept characterised by its fail-safe assembly due to the minimum number of differing components and positive-locking connections.
Only 3 different component types are necessary for the assembly of one module:
The ramp girders are only used in the top modules whereas the carriageway girders find application in both top and intersection modules.
Thus a top module is constructed from: 2 side girders, 1 ramp girder, and 2 carriageway girders. Whereas the intersection module is erected from: 2 side girders and 3 carriageway girders.
The carriage way, ramp and side girders are joined using positive locking connections. The modules are connected by plug-in couplings in the upper and lower chords of the side girders.
The modular construction, which allows the bridges to be adjusted to local requirements and challenges, is one aspect of the development. Importance is also attached to quick and easy erection. The total bridge can be erected in less than 2 hours by 6 persons without heavy equipment. Not more than 25 kg must be lifted by any one person during erection and positioning of the bridge components.
As each module is completed, the whole assembly can be moved further out over the gap. The bridge balance is maintained by the weight of the modules on or behind the trestles until such time as the launching nose reaches the far side of the gap.
During erection the troupes can reach the opposite bank by means of a catwalk integrated into the launching nose.
For the assembly of the modules, the side girders are initially positioned vertically and then tilted outwards by 60°. The ramp and carriageway girders are placed between the side girders such that the coupling joints are aligned. Returning the side girders to the vertical position positively locks the modules together.
The bridge can be disassembled from either the near or the far bank by performing the above steps in the reverse order.
The bridge can be transported as components or fully erected.
For the transportation of the components carry frames and trailers are available.
Thus the bridge can be hauled by the MUNGO armoured personnel carrier, loaded in or slung from the CH53 transport helicopter or shipped by rail.
The fully assembled bridge can be airlifted by the CH53 Sea Stallion as shown in figure 5.

I got the sample of this mascara from a campaign of clinique and I actually love the effect of it on my lashes.Its colour is a really dark and beautiful black,and once you get used to the wand/comb it is easy to use.It curls (really!) and lengthens the lashes and it also gives some volume.It did not smudge on me either.
Well,until this point it sounds just perfect! BUT, I don't know why it dries out so quickly... The performance of the mascara dropped like 70% since I first opened it (less than 2 months)
Anyways, I liked the effect-but I will not pay that much for a mascara that dries out so quickly.
I dont know if its only me found this one is very good at lengthening and volumizing lashes. I gives me the spider lashes. I have long lashes but hard to curl and this one hold my curl well. I put it on top of my revlon lustrous and these two give me the fake eyelash effect.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I just bought this mascara and used it for the first time last night. I read a lot of reviews about it and decided that I should try it. I absolutely love it, I already have long eyelashes, but this mascara made them dark and long in basically one stroke. So happy I bought it.
This is another one of clinique's great mascaras. It separates lashes, and gives you great length! It also has great pigmentation and just makes your lashes look great. This is one of my favorite mascaras and I will repurchase.
More reviews by Addicted2Makeup101
Another great product from Clinique. I use this mascara when I want thin fluttery long and girly lashes. This makes my lashes look amazing. Best part is that I got it free (Clinique Bonus :). The brush can be a bit of a pain but overall great mascara.
This mascara was a suggestion to me from a girl at a local cosmetic store in my mall. I had a 10 dollar gift card and needed some mascara. When she showed me the little mascara wand I almost laughed in her face. I didn't think I was gonna like the mascara but they told me I could bring it back so I bought it. To my surprise, this is probably one of the best mascaras I have used. I have extremely long lashes naturally and this mascara goes on perfectly. I haven't had any clumps, and it stays on my lower lashes without flaking off mid-day. I will continue to use this!
i really like the wand~ it gets to every single lashes and separates them really well~
love the packaging~ love how i can have natural look for one coat and a more dramatic look if added a few more coats~
but.....it smudges!!!
I love this! This is HG for my bottom lashes and then I use this on my top lashes over MUFE Aqua smokey Lash. It works wonders for length and separating. It also lasts awhile and doesn't dry out. I will never be without it!
Edit: I don't use this anymore, thanks to Chanel Inimitable Intense Mascara! ; )
Wish it was waterproof but other than that...LOVE IT!!!! Makes my lashes super long and actually curls them a bit seperates doesn't clump def reccomendation!
I love how it holds a curl in my lashes but absolutely hate the way it smudges. Not only in heat and humidity but also in cold weather. Might be my oily skin but there are drugstore brands that do a better job at a fraction of the cost.

Hugely popular in its native South Africa, John van de Ruit's series of young adult novels successfully translates to the screen in "Spud," which covers the first of three volumes (a fourth is expected next year).
Hugely popular in its native South Africa, John van de Ruit's series of young adult novels successfully translates to the screen in "Spud," which covers the first of three volumes (a fourth is expected next year). This agreeable lightweight entertainment doesn't stray far from boarding-school comedy templates — it's got the requisite pranks, colorful teachers, puppy loves and dramatic crises — despite the country's momentous events of 1990 in the background. Home-turf B.O. winner has secured theatrical deals in the U.K., Australia and Scandinavia. In territories where it might fall between arthouse and mainstream markets, home-format sales should be a cinch.Thirteen-year-old John Milton (Troye Sivan) is nervous about leaving home to enter an elite boys' private school, even if that will afford him a healthy respite from his frankly crazy parents (Aaron Mcilroy, Julie Summers). Quickly sorting out the various staff/student hierarchies, he's determined to fit in, noting to his relief that there are at least a couple of other newbies even lower on the picked-on-dweeb scale than he is. He gains a toehold of acceptance among his dorm's rowdy "Crazy 8″ gang and its ringleader, Rambo (Sven Ruygrok), though this is imperiled when, under duress, he confesses one of their rule-breaking hijinks to short-fused housemaster Glock (Jeremy Crutchley). Girl-crazy in a vacuum, the boys focus their imaginations on Glock's amply flesh-baring spouse, Eve (Tanit Phoenix), the lone attractive female on the premises, and with whom Rambo manages regular liaisons. On visits home, scrawny John, aka Spud (a nickname unhappily acquired after his underdeveloped genitals are glimpsed in the shower), falls hard for beauteous cousin Debbie (Genna Blair), and she somewhat improbably returns the sentiment. That devotion is clouded, however, by his subsequent fixation on Amanda (Charlbi Kriek), a girls' academy sophisticate imported for rehearsals on a new "Oliver Twist" school musical in which sweet-voiced Spud wins the title role. Meanwhile, our hero gains an unreliable mentor in English professor Edly, aka the Guv (scene-stealing John Cleese), who plies him with mind-expanding literature from "The Lord of the Rings" to "Waiting for Godot" and "Catch-22," even as he plies himself with too much liquor. And sickly runt Gecko (Jamie Royal), Spud's best friend, goes from being comically injury-prone to seriously ill. Apart from Spud, Gecko and Guv, the characters are broadly defined, leaving some of the book's favorite bits underdeveloped or omitted outright. The "Crazy 8," in particular, get short shrift onscreen in helmer Donovan Marsh's adaptation, while a few darker aspects (like the protag's parents' alcoholism) are glossed over, though some may find the rather blunt interest in sexual matters here a bit gamey for family entertainment (despite being an accurate assessment of 13-year-old mindsets). It's a bit disappointing when the climactic "Twist" production bypasses satire for fairly straightforward "High School Musical"-style uplift. Nonetheless, it all works as a brisk coming-of-age flashback with some nice comic setpieces and a handsome production gloss. (Pic was primarily shot at Michaelhouse School, van de Ruit's spectacularly picturesque alma mater.) Apartheid falls as these adolescents inhabit their school-days bubble (albeit one that appears racially integrated), yet it doesn't impact them or the story all that much. At their age, they've more pressing things to think about — namely bullying, pranking and wanking.

Volume 2, "Nowhere Else But Here," is based on a project I undertook in June 2009, writing every day for the whole month (one of Minnesota's finest months).
For the project, I observed the progress and passing of the month using the Japanese form haibun. That's a fancy word for something that is simply, beautifully, the combination of prose and haiku poetry (you know, three lines of five, seven and five syllables, respectively).
In this collection, the prose tells of the journey through the season, and the haiku are snapshots of the images experienced on that journey.
I think I've produced a high-quality publication and I'd love it if you'd buy a copy. I am hoping it would be good for your soul during these dark winter months to read these daily entries about days of sun and swimming in the river, nights of fireflies and driving home with your hand out the window in the cool, damp air.
In addition to the the 30 haibun, "Nowhere Else But Here" also features a couple of my photos on the front and back cover, both taken in June in the St. Croix River valley. And, as a bonus, there is a prologue to the chapbook that includes some of my favorite previous writings on summer in Minnesota.
You can get your own copy for just $12. Ordering online is quick, easy and safe. Thanks!

Documents show Secret Service kept tabs on Aaron Swartz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS August 13, 2013 12:12PM
Aaron Swartz
Updated: August 13, 2013 12:23PM
BOSTON — Documents show that the U.S. Secret Service played a role in the federal investigation of free-information activist Aaron Swartz and watched his case until he committed suicide.
Swartz, a Highland Park native, died in New York City in January as he faced trial on charges he hacked into a Massachusetts Institute of Technology archive of scholarly articles with the aim of making them freely available.
The Secret Service documents, released under the Freedom of Information Act, show the agency's Boston field office secured documents and electronic devices seized during a search of Swartz's home and research office at Harvard University.
Agents also joined local police who interviewed Swartz's associates, including a San Francisco woman who told them that he called her after he was arrested and asked her to call his lawyer to arrange bail.


text: 3 Not good at allsatyam87 | 11/06/2009 | See all satyam87's reviews (9)This game lacks polish, it's like the developers tried to cram in all the ideas they thought would be fun, and then had no time to really polish each of them, balance the game etc. Basically you get loads of powers, so many powers you would need 2 controllers to pull all of them, there are places you have to press 2+ buttons at the same time, and it's not comfortable at all.The gore is great, but after your 20th enemy killed with the blades, there's not much you can do. The enemies in this game are ruthless, anytime you get a mission expect to be blown to bits by missiles/bullets/tanks/choppers.The story is not that great either, it's your typical oh you got infected and have superpowers type of game.Could have been a good game if they had tweaked the gameplay.

UW-Eau Claire student elected to serve on honor society's national councilMarch 14, 2013
|Caitlin Daley
EAU CLAIRE — University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire sophomore Caitlin Daley has been elected to serve as a student member-at-large on the national council of the Alpha Lambda Delta Honor Society for First-Year Students.
The council, made up of seven professional and three student members, serves as the governing board for the national organization. ALD members must maintain a GPA of 3.5 or higher and stay within the top 20 percent of their class during their first year of college.
Daley, an organizational communication and Spanish major from Rochester, Minn., is vice president of UW-Eau Claire's ALD chapter and will serve a three-year term on the organization's national council. She will have a number of responsibilities, including presenting awards at chapters around the country, attending conferences, presenting at leadership conferences and serving on multiple committees.
Daley said she is eager to support ALD's goal of academic excellence for first-year students.
"As a student member-at-large, I hope to uphold this goal and the importance of academic excellence during a student's first year to set the tone for the rest of their university experience," Daley said.
Brian Carlisle, dean of students, said he is proud that Daley will represent UW-Eau Claire on the national council.
"Her role with the national council will be critical, as she will be managing more than $4 million in organizational assets and assisting with the awarding of nearly $200,000 in national scholarships and fellowships annually," Carlisle said. "I know she will represent us with Blugold pride!"
Daley said she is most looking forward to increased national involvement by the ALD chapter at UW-Eau Claire as well as learning from other board members and chapters around the nation.
Daley will officially begin her duties when she is installed at the council's annual meeting in San Francisco in June.

Bondholders of Salton Inc., maker of the George Foreman indoor grill, agreed to a debt reorganization that will allow the Lake Forest, IL, U.S.-based company to pay its debts.
Salton got holders of U.S. $77.8 million, or 62 percent, of its bonds maturing this year to exchange their holdings for debt maturing in 2008, company spokesman Michael Wachs said. Salton also made its June interest payment on the notes within the 30-day grace period, according to Mr. Wachs. It had missed the payment when it was due on June 15.
The small appliance maker has reported losses in four of the last five quarters and has more than $400 million in debt. It had $18.2 million in cash in April and about $7.8 million from a bank credit line, according to a regulatory filing.
The company needed to get holders of at least $75 million of the notes to agree to the reorganization plan. The holders of approximately $50.9 million of notes maturing in 2008 have also entered into support agreements, Mr. Wachs said.
A group of Salton bondholders represented by Chanin Capital Partners in Los Angeles, CA, U.S. had opposed the plan. (Bloomberg News)

Availability: In Stock
The DCMA-2500 is a long range wireless driveway alarm system with a range of up to 2500 feet, or half a mile.
The DCMA-2500 kit featuring a PIR based transmitter, or sensor and receiver, will pick up any kind of movement. Both of these products are very similar to their counterparts as featured in the Dakota Alert WMA-3000 set. The difference is their range. The WMA-3000 has a range of up to 650 feet while the DCMA-2500 kit has a range of 2500 feet.
The transmitter runs on a 9-volt battery (not included) and has a detection zone of about 50 feet. When the sensor detects movement, it sends a wireless signal back to the receiver.
The receiver plugs into a standard wall outlet and is powered by a 12Volt transformer. Other features on the receiver is a 5 minute exit delay which gives you time to delay sensor activation so it won't detect you leaving the house. The receiver also has four "c" relay outputs and one 12Volt DC output allowing you to tie in additional products to the receiver.
The receiver also has four distinct zone capability allowing you to tie in additional sensors and associate a distinct zone to a sensor or variety of sensors.
Additional receivers and sensors are available and sold separately,

Jones: Phillips' job not in jeopardy
Is Wade In Danger of Losing His Job? Jerry Says "No"
Jones: Phillips' job not in jeopardy
Is Wade In Danger of Losing His Job? Jerry Says "No"
A few weeks ago at the Dallas Cowboys' rookie mini-camp, coaches had the opportunity to see first round selection Dez Bryant in action for the first time in team colors; the reviews were overwhelmingly positive, with Wade Phillips eulogizing the former Oklahoma State star, saying he was the most impressive rookie he had ever seen.
On Monday, the opening of organized team activities, veterans had the opportunity to see the most immediately impressive of their new teammates in the flesh; like Phillips, they were left somewhat mesmerized by the tools possessed by Bryant.
"I heard a lot of hype about him coming in, and I definitely agree with him being the first pick," said cornerback Mike Jenkins, per ESPNDallas.com. "The guy is going to be a great receiver in this league. … I think he has all the ability to be the best receiver we have."
Roy Williams, whose role as a starter was threatened–according to many outsiders–by Bryant's selection, raved about the young receiver as well, adding that he'd like to aid in his development.
"I'm trying to make him better, not only for him but for the Dallas Cowboys in the future," Williams said. "He's the future guy for this football team. Everybody knows that. I want him to be the man, come real soon."
Of course, Bryant still has some developing to do. Williams, who has made clear that he won't hand over his starting role without a fight, knows this, as does Bryant's quarterback Tony Romo. Now this is an obvious conclusion to draw from the situation, particularly in mid-May, but, admittedly, it's easy to forget.
Bryant, in his brief time with the team, has just been that impressive. Fortunately for us, who find ourselves swooning in the possibilities of the future, Romo is a realist.
"There's a long way to go, it's a process and it's about improving," Romo said, echoing every interview he's ever given. "[With] young guys, it sometimes takes a little bit to get adjusted to press, different things, in the NFL, route adjustments. I'll be interested to see all that as it gets forward. We're just starting the process now."
PFT: "Giants, Redskins, and Eagles fans suddenly feel a little bit better about their day."
What a loser. Fire Wade Phillips
Jerry Jones joined Showtime's Inside the NFL for a sit down last night.
Cris Collinsworth: "You haven't said Wade (Phillips) is coming back. As the decision maker of the Dallas Cowboys, is that a bit intentional to keep the pressure on this football team as they go into the playoffs?
Jerry: There is no need to because this team is motivated without me having to say, 'Well I say our coach is going to be back.' What is the case, and they understand that, is that we are going to be a better football team if we don't make a coaching change. If I look back over the last 10 years and I need to re-do the last 10 years in varying areas, I look at the revolving door we've had with coaches here and that takes its toll. That takes its toll on the top personnel you have, on the schemes you run, so continuity would be important to me. There is no doubt the Dallas Cowboys would be better off in years to come if we can keep Wade Phillips as head coach.
No one is rooting for Wade Phillips to succeed more than Jerry Jones.
He'd like nothing better than for Phillips to beat Philadelphia this week and capture his second NFC East title in three years, which means the Cowboys would host at least one playoff game.
If Phillips succeeds, then it justifies Jerry's decision to hire Phillips instead of Norv Turner, and it justifies his decision to go with a players' coach after Bill Parcells left.
Besides, Jerry loves working with Phillips because the coach allows him to be himself. He can be part of the process instead of feeling like an intruder when he wants to address the team after a game.
Jerry doesn't want to fire Phillips.
Frankly, he's looking for reasons to keep Phillips around. His 32-15 is a good start, but Jerry wants some playoff success. You can't blame him, considering the Cowboys haven't won a playoff game since 1996.
That's why Jerry hasn't been shy about saying what needs to happen for Phillips to keep his job.
It's also why he hasn't yet signed the club option that will guarantee Phillips another year.
Win Sunday and Phillips might just get a belated Christmas gift from the owner.
here ya go sign itF
Heard Mike on Cowherd's show today, Wade is too light, Parcels too heavy, Cowboys need a coach somewhere in the middle.
Lets get Wade Phillips fired before the Cowboys become a joke.
The players have spoken this week. Loud and clear. Oh, how they love Wade Phillips.
They're upset because his leadership and approach to handling the Cowboys has been questioned for the 10 millionth time since Jerry Jones hired him instead of Norv Turner in 2007.
The players love Phillips' demeanor. And his schemes. And the way he accepts responsibility for their mistakes.
Who wouldn't love a guy like that?
It's time for the players to prove their love. After all, words without actions are worthless.
This week, the players should win one for Wade. It has a nice ring to it.
If the players are sincere about their affection for Phillips, then they need to beat San Diego, ending the Chargers' seven-game winning streak. That'll get Phillips off the hot seat, stop the chatter about his eventual replacement and temporarily silence the critics — count me as one — who question his leadership.
It'll even stop us from talking about the Cowboys' 3-6 record in December under Phillips and their inability to play their best football in the season's most important month.
Afterward, don't give us any excuses. No mea culpas. No coulda, woulda, shoulda.
This is not the week for Terence Newman to let an interception slip through his hands or for Flozell Adams to succumb to his own agenda and start a brawl. This is not the week for Nick Folk to miss a field goal because the hold isn't perfect.
Just win the game. Plain and simple.
This is as close to a must-win as the Cowboys can get without being mathematically eliminated with a loss.
Any player or coach who doesn't realize that needs a brain transplant. If it takes that approach, Dallas will win.
It's hard to beat a desperate NFL team at home. Look at how Green Bay drilled Dallas 17-7 a few weeks ago. Or how the Giants beat Dallas 31-24 last week.
Each was essentially on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs.
Now it's the Cowboys who must play as though their season is on the line. It is.
Beat San Diego and everything Phillips needs to happen to ensure Jerry Jones picks up the team option on his contract remains in play. The Cowboys will still be positioned to win the NFC East, host a playoff game and end their streak of 12 seasons without a playoff win.
Lose, though, and this season is a wrap. Guarantee it.
Lose and you can make easily make the case the Cowboys won't win another game this season.
That's not hyperbole. It's reality. Whether the players and coaches choose to accept that is irrelevant.
Logic says the Cowboys could play well and lose in New Orleans, which would give them a three-game losing streak heading into a road game against Washington.
Don't act like you can't see how the Cowboys could lose at Washington, since the Redskins are playing good football and lost by one point in Cowboys Stadium a few weeks ago.
Add a four-game losing streak to 24-hour sports talk chatter about Wade's status, Jerry's inevitable vote of confidence and it's a recipe for yet another opportunity for Philadelphia to put Dallas out of its misery.
That's why it's imperative the Cowboys beat San Diego on Sunday.
To do so, their best players must perform at a high level because the Chargers are so good Dallas could play well and lose.
This week it's about Tony Romo and DeMarcus Ware and Jay Ratliff. It's about Jason Witten and Andre Gurode and Keith Brooking. It's about Nick Folk and Bradie James and Miles Austin.
The season is on the line.
It's time for the players to make it happen or the kind words for Phillips will ring hollow.
They control his future.

Yesterday, Rick Perry addressed Liberty University as part of his push to garner the support of the Religious Right. After The Response prayer rally, it was clear that Perry's overt religiosity would be a central theme while promoting his candidacy to the GOP's conservative base. We thought it would be timely to revisit Perry's appearance on Trinity Broadcasting Network's flagship show Praise The Lord in February of last year. Perry described how "all through life there have been these supernatural events" of God sending him signals, providing one example... MORE

Frank Pavone, the head of the prominent anti-choice group Priests for Life, has been suspended from his position because of concerns over financial improprieties. Pavone is a priest in the Roman Catholic diocese of Amarillo, Texas, but has used his position in Priests for Life to be a full-time political activist. He garnered national attention during the Terri Schiavo case when he called her husband Michael "a murderer." He gained more notoriety after bringing in Alveda King to Priests for Life, when he launched "Freedom Rides" in the South in an attempt to connect... MORE

No matter how many times the deceitful claim that abortion providers are systematically targeting the black community for genocide is repudiated, new anti-choice groups can't seem to stop running more 'black genocide' billboard campaigns. In March, a group called Life Always notoriously used images of President Barack Obama and a young black girl in their billboard campaign that abortion is black genocide. Earlier this summer the National Black Pro-Life Coalition put up billboards in Atlanta likening legal abortion to slavery and the Radiance Foundation and Issues4Life... MORE

Last week, we noted that C. Peter Wagner was growing the recent attention and criticism his New Apostolic Reformation movement has been receiving and sent out an email trying to downplay all of their talk of taking dominion. It now seems like this is becoming a pattern as Os Hillman, a leading Seven Mountains advocate and the man behind Reclaim7Mountains.com, is also seeking to downplay all that dominionism talk: An important understanding and distinction must be stated at this point. Dominion, or perhaps a better word to use is influence, is a result of our love and obedience to God, not a... MORE

Updated 8/5/2011 On August 6, Texas Gov. Rick Perry will host The Response, a "prayer rally" in Houston, along with the extremist American Family Association and a cohort of Religious Right leaders with far-right political ties. While the rally's leaders label it a "a non-denominational, apolitical Christian prayer meeting," the history of the groups behind it suggests otherwise. The Response is powered by politically active Religious Right individuals and groups who are dedicated to bringing far-right religious view, including degrading views of gays and lesbians... MORE

Cliffs Natural, Wynn Tumble on China Worries
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - Cliffs Natural Resources (CLF) and Caterpillar (CAT) tumbled Monday on concerns that U.S. stocks with large operations in China will suffer as the world's second-largest economy struggles with a banking cash crunch.
Cliff, the iron ore and coal miner, lost 7.6% to $15.08 while Caterpillar, the world's biggest maker of mining equipment, was dropped 1.9% to $81.52. YUM! Brands (YUM), owner of KFC which gets 42% of revenue from China, declined 1.3% to $68.10.
China's central bank attempted to ease concerns saying that the country has sufficient liquidity even as it called on financial institutions to curtail risky loans. The CSI 300 Index, a composite of China's largest companies, entered a bear market after plummeting 6.3%, dragging the decline from its peak this year to more than 20 percent.
Wynn Resorts (WYNN), which depended on Macau for 74% of its revenue in 2012, plummeted 4.3% to $124.12 as Coach (COH), the high-end retailer, fell 2.3% to $55.27. Deere & Co. (DE) lost 1.8% to $81 as JPMorgan Chase cut its rating in the agricultural equipment maker to "underweight" from "neutral."The MSCI Emerging Market Index was falling for a fourth consecutive day, dropping 0.9% to 900.54 to extend its loss in 2013 to 15%. The S&P 500 retreated 1.2% to 1,573.09, paring its gain for the year to 11% Written by Leon Lazaroff in New York

Education and Community Outreach Internships
Signature Theatre's Education Department operates year-round and has full and part-time internships available throughout the year. Education interns should be recent college graduates who are actively pursuing careers in theater or qualified junior or senior college students. Interns are treated as a vital part of Signature's staff and gain valuable real-life work experience at a professional, award-winning, nationally-renowned theater.
Signature Theatre's Education programs have received national recognition and respect. Interns in the Education department fill a vital role, serving in administrative, teaching and dramaturgical capacities. Interns assist with Signature in the Schools in rehearsals, in-class workshops and in preparation of study materials studied by nearly 1,800 students annually. Additionally, they coordinate free community events, summer programming, assist in supervising The Apprentice at Signature program, and oversee administration for classes and programs offered through The Signature Academy. They also help maintain administrative duties for all Education programs. On occasion, they may serve as a dramaturge for Signature's main stage productions.
How To Apply
To apply, please send a cover letter stating your goals and expectations for an internship position with Signature and the time period for which you would like to be considered (fall, spring, or summer). Also include a résumé listing your educational background, work history, and theater/arts experience with references and an official college transcript. Applications with staples will be automatically rejected.
Send application materials to:
Signature Theatre
ATTN: Internships
4200 Campbell Ave.
Arlington, VA 22206
How will I know my application materials have been received? A member of Signature's Education department will contact you to let you know your materials have been received.
How long will it take to know if a decision has been made regarding my application? It can take several weeks to hear back on the status of an application. We appreciate your patience.
Who should I use as reference? We recommend professionals or educators who know you personally and who have worked with you. Look at the intern descriptions and qualifications. Are there people who have worked with you in similar capacities? Those are the people to ask.
Are interns paid? Full-time interns receive a modest travel stipend. Part-time internships are unpaid.
Does Signature provide housing for interns? Unfortunately, we cannot provide housing for interns. There are several websites and organizations in the DC area that can aid in finding housing for internships including The Washington Intern Housing Network. We will be happy to put you in contact with other interns who may be in need of roommates.
Is Signature Metro accessible? Signature Theatre is located in The Village at Shirlington, which is not Metro accessible. However, several buses leave from the nearby Pentagon City, Crystal City, and Pentagon stations to Shirlington on a regular basis. Additionally, there is a substantial amount of free parking near the theatre.
Is it possible to receive school credit for my internship? It is! If your school offers credit for internships, and you are interested in receiving credit for your internship at Signature, please make sure we know what's required of you and, just as importantly, what's required of us!
What are the hours for internships? Generally, interns will be expected to work Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM. However, occasional evenings, early hours or weekends may be expected.
Is it possible to be a full-time intern at Signature and hold an outside job? While some have done it in the past, we wouldn't recommend it. Interning at Signature is a full-time job and depending on the internship, the schedule can fluctuate from week to week, making it difficult to pursue outside work.
Do you offer internships in other departments? Currently, the Education Internship is the only internship available at Signature Theatre. We encourage you to check back regularly to see if others have become available.
For more information about our internship opportunities, please contact Signature's Education Department at 571 527 1854 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
