Bradshaw Shoe Storage Cabinet 2 2
Practical & Helpful storage tool Like many women, I have lots of shoes and I needed storage that would allow easy access. My daughter built it for me and it is sturdy and well designed. It is best suited for shoes, not boxed boots. I have also placed some handbags in the shelf too. The price of the product was reasonable, but the shipping fee tipped the overall price to the high side. August 21, 2013
Good Takes awhile to put together, but looks good and works great for the space. August 20, 2013

Southbury to partially open emergency operations center tomorrow during storm
SOUTHBURY -- Officials met this afternoon and decided to partially open the town's emergency operations center tomorrow, a move that will require Connecticut Light & Power Co. to send a representative to town during the storm.
Officials say they want the CL&P representative in Southbury in case tomorrow's storm produces ice that would coat trees and power lines, and disrupt power.

Global Education
Education is a field that many consider to be a source of great confusion when looking at where we have been in the past and the results that we can reasonably expect in the future. Anyone that knows anything about educating a child knows that it is now more difficult than it has ever been in the past. There are many factors that can make it very hard to provide your children with the high quality education that they deserve, but money is usually one of the most common factors. Many school systems simply do not have the financial means to be able to provide the books that are needed for your children to take in lessons, this means they are suffering. Additionally, school systems do not have the money needed to pay for quality teachers with experience, this means that educators are not being compensated as they deserve. When you take into account all of these factors, you are left with a very negative picture of education in the world today. While school systems are attempting to save money, there are many teachers that are simply working for the purpose of cashing a check at the end of the week. If you are a parent that would like to offer your child the best chance of success possible, it is very important that you eliminate many of these factors by having a look at private school derbyshire options when selecting a school that they are going to attend on a regular basis.
Extra information about private school derbyshire
The Private Approach
Private school would be the best direction for you to consider because you do not have to worry about a shortage of money that would make it impossible for your children to obtain the books needed for their lessons. Instead, you would find comfort that private education eliminates this problem while ensuring that each child has all of the books needed for their lessons. Additionally, the teachers employed by private schools are not simply working here for the pay alone. In general, you would find that these teachers have a desire to make an impact on the lives of the children that they are working with. While you would still have to worry about the desire that your children have when it comes to taking in the material, it is within your power to control many of the factors that can make proper education of a child very difficult. There are many child that learn best when they have the benefit of lessons that are offered with a more personal approach. However, children are typically placed into a big classroom that would limit the amount of attention they are able to get from a teacher. When you look into private school derbyshire options, you can find comfort in knowing that students will get a lot more personalized instruction from teachers, this means that your kids are going to learn lessons and hold onto them. Great education can be simple when you consider all of the private school options that are available to you.

Post-Awards Musings 6/27/11
Since I spent some time mentoring one of my younger colleagues who was new to the whole "NHL Awards" experience, I had to teach her a few things that I learned over the years while covering the NHL. This wasn't anything anyone ever taught her or even bothered to mention to her while covering the game. But these are my tricks of the trade.
1. An AGENT is your best friend. You want to know the tricks of the trade? If by chance you are on an agent's radar…good things can come your way. Need an interview with one of their clients that doesn't need team approval? Go through the agent. Need one of those fun interviews or an interview with a player from a team you don't cover? Go through the agent.
Keep in mind, if you want to keep this connection on a good working based relationship you have to help promote the agency and their other clients as well. Case in point, even though The Puck Agency and Norton Sports have a few Devils clients, I also work to promote their other clients and endeavours such as Brooklynite Hockey, Make My Day Monday, Cam Janssen, Pekka Rinne, and Dustin Brown to name a few.
What's also great about having an excellent relationship with agents is that when they start a new venture to help boost their client's image, sometimes they'll take you along for the ride to help you boost your career even further. They'll even recommend you to bigger outlets to HIRE YOU or send some work your way.
It's all about helping each other out. Who knows…they may even break the biggest news of the year to you before anyone else knows about it.
But the only way this works…you can't go in trying to break stories or weasel stories out of agents. It's not how it works at all. It's all about telling the stories about their clients that they want out there. It helps boost their client's image, as well as the agency's. This is a relationship you always have to work on to make it better than it was the day before.
2. Letting the SPONSOR find you. A little unknown fact is that this blog is sponsored. Who helps sponsor it? Well, I like to keep it on the down low. But you'll see that I'll promote their product and events every now and again. It's how it works in this business.
You get free stuff (which I pass along to fans), and exclusives long before the general public can get their hands on it.
It's a misnomer to believe that you should go looking for a sponsor. You never know who's watching. Sometimes it's best to let the sponsor come to you.
3. Develop PLAYER relationships. This is one of those 'on the fence' topics, especially if you're a woman discussing this. I don't normally let current NHL players have access to me outside of an arena. They are not allowed to contact me at all. Only former NHL players can have my phone number or email address. Why? So I'm not accused of 'getting players phone numbers.'
This is a bit sexist since many men in the media have phone numbers of the players they cover. The media 'assumes' things if it's a woman trying to exercise that same privilege. The only safe way for a woman to do this is if the player is retired. The rules change.
Developing a relationship with a retired hockey player not only allows you to get a different vantage point on hockey, but it also allows them to educate you (as well as the reader) on things that we just don't think about when it comes to hockey. They are the experts.
The way I understand hockey at a much deeper level comes from the retired players. Pat LaFontaine, Eddie O and Glenn Anderson gave me plenty to think about when it came to the development of young hockey players. You just don't know what you can learn from the retirees…but it sure seems like they know more than the guys currently playing the game.
With age comes wisdom…
You'll also find that retired players are more apt to talk to you about hockey than current players are. Why? Because they're not bombarded with fans asking for autographs and such. Retired players take the time to talk to you. I always appreciate their insights (and Stanley Cup picks) more than anyone else.
4. TALK to the NHL office. Something that kind of surprised me is that Winter kept pointing out to me that everyone knows me. I walk up to someone from the NHL office…I usually know their name, their job description, etc. and chances are they know who I am too.
We discuss upcoming (unpublished) events that only the people going know about. They also give me the heads up on where we need to go to get better vantage points to do our job. Favoritism? No, not at all. Knowing WHO to talk to, and what to ask (and they answer) is what it's all about.
Developing a relationship with the NHL office is very important in covering the NHL. It's probably one of the most important things. If you've got a good, solid relationship with them…chances that your credentials are revoked are pretty slim to none. After all, you're just doing your job.
Now, I do have a bit of an advantage over most of the media. I work next door to the NHL office, so the second they say X player is at the NHL office/store, I get a time and head over to find out what's going on. A lot of times you can find out where a player is going in free agency just by faking a coffee run to the NHL office.
Brad Richards…oh, they told me all already. Everyone else is just catching up…almost 2 months later.
5. Make MEDIA friends. No, I'm not talking about blogger friends. I'm talking about friends that cover all walks of the media spectrum for the NHL. They're the same guys you see lurking around at all of the events. In a way, it's a circuit.
I make sure to introduce myself to people at each of the NHL events. After a while, you tend to see the same people around. The NHLPA sends the same guy…the Bruins send the same people…ESPN sends the same guys…you get to know these faces.
What's also nice is when you befriend the actual guys from the team websites, you get in on special exclusives with their team players, as well as emailed and text messaged stuff that you can't get anywhere else. YOU are given an exclusive heads up before the rest of the world finds out.
It helps to befriend these guys because you're helping them get the word out, and they're helping you inch ahead in your own career. It's kind of nice to say the least.
6. Do your own unique thing. Everyone has their own uniqueness to writing and covering the game. Personally, I hate doing the same article that everyone else in the media is doing. So I try to do something different. I try to talk about growing up hockey, or controversies that crop up in the NHL. I like to do feature pieces on an individual or on a certain topic. For me, it helps me understand the player better, where they're from, what kind of environment they came from, and how in the world they ended up sitting in an NHL locker room. Seriously…I want to know how it happened.
For me, I like to talk about people's dreams and how they made them real. I love talking to players about their childhood and their homes. I love asking them what it was like. I want to know what their dreams were. I want to know how they got to where they are now.
That's always been my unique approach to hockey.
If you're doing what everyone else is doing, why do you think they would go to your site to read what the beat writers have already written? It just reads the same. There's nothing different about it.
What people need is a fresh take on the game, as well as the players playing the game. They need someone that buys into the way the team does things, doesn't judge, but can see what would be the next best move for the team. There are fantasy requests (Jaromir Jagr on my home team would put a smile on my face), and then there are innovative approaches like taking a look at a high school coach and seeing how his coaching skills netted players that went on to the NHL and captured gold and silver medals in the Olympics and 2 Stanley Cups in consecutive years…and then realizing…that's the kind of coach your team needs…one that breeds and develops winners.
That's how you stay ahead of the curve. But it also helps when you're learning about the game you're covering directly from the coaches, players and alumni. Soak it all in like a sponge…they are your professors of hockey 101. Don't ever assume you know all about hockey, because I've found that there's more to this game than just a game.
7. Use your ASSETS. I may get chirped about this, but being with a catalog model this past week, I've had to teach her a few things about being a woman and having a career. It is a FACT that women that are attractive get ahead in the workplace faster than their unattractive colleagues.
Nobody likes to hear that, but it's true. You can't get around it.
If you are attractive, you're going to get ahead. You have to use that asset to boost your career. It doesn't mean sleeping around with every John, Jack, Jake or Jackass out there. If you start doing that, well…you're put in a certain category you won't be able to get out of and no one will respect you.
Opportunities seem to blossom more for those that are attractive. Use those opportunities to boost your career further. Know what you want and seize the opportunities. They will come to you on a silver platter. You won't have to work as hard, but you're still going to have to work to show that you're not just a pretty face (or dumb). You have to prove to everyone that you know what you're talking about. You know what you're doing. You are not one of 'them.'
It takes one bad seed to ruin it for everyone, but sometimes the good seeds will blossom into someone strong that commands the respect of others. It takes a lot of convincing to show that you're worthy. Once you're able to convince them you know your stuff and you're not one of 'them' then the opportunities will come abounding.
You have to work the assets you have. Even if it's not looks…use your smarts or your personality to impress others. Use your drive and passion to prove why you deserve to be given an opportunity. Show them why you are a unique individual. Show them what you bring to the table that is different than everyone else out there. That is how you get ahead in life.
You have to remember that there are a lot of people vying for that one seat. Why should they pick you over everyone else? What have you contributed? What can you contribute to the hockey realm that will make them a better enterprise?
8. BE ETHICAL. You want to know why some people get denied credentials?
1) They've criticized the GM;
2) They've criticized the team;
3) They've written for fan blogging sites;
4) They've written for a fan blogging site that has had questionable material.
I'm going to talk about the 4th one…I know there are fan blogging sites everywhere. I tried to write for one..ONCE. When I saw the feedback (and I know who wrote it), I said this wasn't for me. It was a good thing I had such a bad experience with that site. I was pushed to other more credible sites that offered me the opportunity I was looking for…to cover the game from the press box.
When you write for a fansite that does not adhere to the rules of ethics from the hockey writers association nor do they adhere to the rules of conduct for reporters…you're not ever going to be in the press box.
I don't have one editor…I have several. On this site and Play Money, I am the editor. BUT both sites need to come as close to adhering to the rules of ethical conduct because the NHL and the New Jersey Devils read those sites. I have to stay within the rules.
When there's a fan that writes questionable, even derogatory material for these fan sites, it reflects badly upon YOU…even if you didn't write it. The way the NHL and teams view it is…"oh, it's that site." You are grouped in with all of those fans that want to write about the game they love…but they're sure as hell not going to credential you or your site. It's just a fan blog.
Even if you are trying to be as professional as you can to prove your worth, one bad article published on that site by someone else could reflect badly on your image that you're working so hard to create.
Trust me, we have a list of sites we don't go to because it's become a collective of bad writing from fans that don't know what they're talking about 80% of the time. But we give them props for trying to write about their passion for whatever team they're cheering for.
So if you really are serious about being a sports reporter…write for sites that have a solid reputation in the NHL…and have credentialed beat writers and editors. Learn from them.

I've not done this, but I've been keen to try it out for quite a while. Unfortunately too many other things to do atm and little interest from teachers/SMT.
From what I understand it is quite a common setup, there are howtos:
and google pulls a lot advice. TBH I'm not really sure if you can do what you describe with the windows share.
To be really cutting edge you'd need to integrate the filesystem with Alfresco - now that would be special - and then you could drag and drop from windows shares or ftp or webdav or http. A google of alfresco and moodle reveals that work is in progress to get moodle to use the JSR-170 repository (that alfresco uses) - it looks like its been put back to moodle v2.0 2008 though

US Open 2012: Interview with Patrick McEnroe and Christina McHale
Patrick McEnroe and New Jersey resident (and No. 24-ranked woman) Christina McHale preview the 2012 US Open, tennis's final Grand Slam.
Mon Aug 20 2012
CommentsAdd +
Photograph: Mike Stobe
For two weeks at the end of each summer, tennis's top pros—and their starriest fans—descend on Flushing Meadows–Corona Park for the US Open. But unlike many sporting events, where one contest is the main attraction, this Grand Slam tourney offers a choose-your-own-adventure scenario to explore the matches, live music and food, all on the grounds of the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. We spoke to USTA general manager of player development and television commentator Patrick McEnroe, as well as 20-year-old American women's prospect and competitor Christina McHale (who grew up in New Jersey and currently trains at the center) to serve up tips on attending a session.
RECOMMENDED: Coverage of this year's US Open
Venture beyond center court
"To me, the most fun is to go to the outer courts and to see the players really up close," says McEnroe. During the first week of play, tennis connoisseurs walk past Arthur Ashe and Louis Armstrong stadiums to 14 more courts, where you can grab a sideline view of up-and-coming athletes. If you're intent on seeing Maria Sharapova or Roger Federer without the aid of a JumboTron, try looking for them in the practice area, just west of Arthur Ashe. Says McHale, "Head to courts P1 through P5; they're in the back, so you could miss them, but you can see all the big stars practicing before their big matches. It's definitely worth a stop. When I was 14, I even got a picture of myself with Rafael Nadal there."
Be fashionably late
As with city clubs and parties, the action tends to heat up later in the day. "The US Open caters to that New York City vibe," says McEnroe. The organizers "tend to put the better matches in the afternoon or early evening, so from 5 to 6pm on there's a ton of action. The buzz in the late afternoon, early evening is better than any other major." McHale agrees: "The night matches make the Open special. You have the music going on outside Arthur Ashe, and there are activities along the outside courts."
Make noise
In contrast to the hallowed grounds at Wimbledon, players at the Open—especially Americans—tend to enjoy a little raucousness from the boisterous crowds when they're in NYC. "You really can't compare that experience to anything else; the crowd gets so into it, and to have the home support is amazing," says McHale, who rode that energy into the third round last year.
Plug in
Upon arrival, visitors can buy a draw card ($4) with the schedule of matches, but to truly stay tuned to the action, consider downloading the free US Open app for iPhone, Android or iPad, which provides real-time updates. "If you're following the live scores, you can know when a match is headed to a fourth or a fifth set," explains McEnroe.
Try the concessions
Visitors to the Open can chow down at an international array of vendors at the Food Village, which gets high marks for sports-venue dining. Carnegie Deli, Stonyfield Yogurt and Ben & Jerry's all set up shop, along with boozier and bubblier fare at a Heineken-sponsored Red Star Café and Moët et Chandon's Terrace. "I love the Indian [New Delhi Spice]," says McEnroe. "For some reason it's not that popular—I don't know why—so I always go there because the lines aren't too long, like the others."
Game, Set, Match! USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, Flushing Meadows–Corona Park, Kennedy Cir at New York Ave, Flushing, Queens (usopen.org). Mon 27–Sept 9. Tickets start at $28.

DVICE Exclusive: OLED breakthrough might mean luminous wallpaper is on the way
What if you could have an entire room wallpapered in flexible, paper-thin light? Maybe you could even control that light's color and intensity in different areas. That's the goal of General Electric researchers (disclosure: GE owns DVICE's parent company, NBC Universal), who just achieved a breakthrough toward making that possible. The key to making this affordable is roll-to-roll processing, a method of manufacturing organic LEDs (OLEDs) that works a whole lot like a printing press.
While GE's breakthroughs in cost and efficiency are impressive, their engineers are the first to admit the technology is not quite practical yet. Working just a few miles from the Schenectady, New York lab in which Thomas Edison and his fellow researchers developed the first tungsten lighting elements that made the light bulb commercially viable is Anil Duggal, Advanced Technology Leader for Organic Electronics at GE Global Research. His goal: to create an entirely new kind of lighting for the 21st century. We talked to him about his work, the promise of OLEDs, and the timeline for bringing OLED lighting tech into the home.
These lights will also someday be able to create any color you desire. Duggal said, "We've proven that these things can be made color tunable, so that you can have different swatches of the room lit up in different colors. You can actually even make these things transparent, so you could even imagine putting it on a window."
He's making progress with the efficiency of OLED light, too. The benchmark of the lighting industry is lumens per watt (lm/W), and this latest OLED created by a GE can emit 30 lm/W. That's twice as efficient as incandescent bulbs, which commonly run at around 15 lm/W.
Duggal wouldn't say exactly when luminous OLED wallpaper would be available, but he did say it would be sometime after 2010. However, by 2010, his team plans to release its first marketable product. They're not exactly sure what that product will be, or at what price point it will be released, but Duggal says it won't be a bargain-basement kind of device, at least at first.
Duggal and his research team are working just a few feet away from the actual desk (pictured at right) of lighting pioneer Thomas Edison, and are making great leaps toward changing the world of lighting as we know it. Duggal couldn't say exactly when these world-changing wallpaper-like lighting fixtures would be available at your neighborhood Home Depot, but the future looks bright. If the results of this team of researchers are any indication, 10 years from now, light bulbs will be passé.

The weisswurst is incredible. I have been to Germany and had weisswurst in a small town near Neuschwanstein. It was identical. Also, if you take your own stein you get a 10% discount on your beer order. I love this place. I like their sauerkraut, but I have never had it anywhere else made with cloves. Still good, I eat it every time.ReplyDelete
I didn't know that about the stein, that's pretty awesome!ReplyDelete

It's a tough one. I'd probably agree with those coming down on the side of fruit paste. Ideally, if you're translating into English, people would know what you meant if you said "Turkish Delight" or even "lokoum", which is what this really sounds like to me, but we're not really supposed to translate an untranslated term into another untranslated term, are we?

A media rights group has accused the Sri Lankan government of blocking an investigation into the killing of a newspaper editor two years ago, saying its indifference in solving the crime had made it an accomplice.
Reporters Without Borders, a Paris-based organisation, said Lasantha Wickrematunge's killers remained at large as of Saturday - the second anniversary of his death - and accused Sri Lanka's government of actively preventing the truth being exposed.
"Reporters Without Borders is appalled by the fact that the Sri Lankan government is doing nothing to solve this murder and in fact is clearly preventing the truth from coming to light," the group said in a statement.
"By blocking the investigation and by fostering a climate of impunity and indifference, the government has become an accomplice."Wickrematunge, the editor of The Sunday Leader newspaper, was shot dead by motorcycle-riding assailants while driving to work on January 8, 2009.Critical reporting
The paper had been critical of the government's conduct of the decades-long war against the now-defeated Liberation Tigers of Tamil Ealam, and reported on alleged human rights violations and government corruption.
Police said the case was still being investigated.
"It is not possible to make immediate conclusions in a planned killing like this, but we will conduct a systematic investigation and arrest the culprits," Prishantha Jayakody, a police spokesman, told The Associated Press news agency.
He pointed out that other legal systems around world sometimes take six to eight years to solve murders.
Reporters Without Borders said Wickrematunge's killing had dealt a major blow to media freedom in Sri Lanka.
The rights group has said 25 journalists were killed in Sri Lanka over the past 10 years. Some have been abducted and remain missing, while others have fled the country after being beaten up or threatened.

What games am I playing this weekend? Head over to The Gameological Society and find out! Man, it's one of my favorite websites and I'm completely thrilled they wanted to yap with me. I am just saying.
One thought on "talkin' games"
Nice funny interview. I have not delved very far into the horror game genre, having had an initially less than stellar experience with "Resident Evil Outbreak-File #2″ for PS2, but I think I might have to try the first "Dead Space" that has been sitting un-played on my bookshelf. Though it will have to wait until I become absolutely bored with "Skyrim", which I don't see happening anytime soon. Now if someone came up with a zombie dragon apocalypse, that would be neat-o.

Volkswagen tops most shared Super Bowl ads chart
Volkswagen is the most shared Super Bowl brand of all time, according to data released by marketing tech platform Unruly.
Volkswagen: most shared Super Bowl brand
The auto manufacturer's ads have attracted more online shares across the social web than any other Super Bowl advertiser.
The German car maker's ads have attracted a total of 7.07m shares across Facebook, Twitter and the blogosphere. Its top ranking place is driven by the 2011 campaign 'The Force' , an ad featuring a child dressed as Darth Vader trying to make objects move, which is also the most shared Super Bowl ad of all time.
The autos sector is the most popular vertical at the Super Bowl, attracting 11.81m shares altogether.
VW is just ahead of Budweiser which has garnered 6.95m shares for its content, scoring a major success with last year's hit "Brotherhood", and Universal Pictures, in third place.
Super Bowl regulars Doritos, Chevrolet and M&Ms also feature in the top 10.
In terms of this year's Super Bowl ads, Axe, the Unilever bodyspray known ad Lynx in the UK, is the most shared with its 'Make peace not war' tongue-in-cheek effort, which shows a breakout of world peace as soldiers and leaders around the world use the spray.

Snowy morning...
It feels good to shovel.. I helped Russ shovel before he left work...it was an easier shovel then last weeks...So it is done for now and I will go out and shovel when the snow stops...which will be around noon they said...
The snow is pretty...it is glistening where the street lights were shining down...I have alawys loved snow...For some reason I dread it this year maybe because I just can't do it all this year...I will enjoy the prettiness of it tho..
I didn't go to church this past sunday because I needed the rest....Actually the whole weekend I felt like I had been hit with a mac truck...I may have had a bug more than the chemo affecting me..
I did go through all my old magazines recipes that I have been cutting out for years...I weeded out all the high fat, high carb recipes and threw them out.. I downsized my collection of recipes big time.. This is our way of life now..especially cutting the high carb foods in our diet...
On Monday I just couldn't muster the energy to do anything..I have cut alot of red meat out of our diet recently and I know red meat is also important for your body...I don't have red meat in the house...I was craving red meat last night...I have never done this before but I ordered take out from Texas Roadhouse... Russ and I love Prime rib and we ordered that... I wasn't sure how it was going to taste by bringing it home...OH my gosh it was so good... It was expensve but I can't tell you when we ate out and ate something so good...It has been a long time...And the best part is we got to eat in peace and quiet...I love Texas Roadhouse but I don't like the noise....You can barely hear each other talking...So we enjoyed last night so much...Of course we spent our momth of January's eating out budget but it was so well worth it...I will be definitley be buying red meat when I go grocery shopping next time...I have to stick with the food budget so I will have to plan things all over again and have more soups for dinner...
I am doing well on our budget.. I am doing well with our goals...of course it is only the 17th of January and have a long way to go....If I don't keep track each day I know I will fail at it...There are times I just want to go out and shop...But I can't...it has been hard changing my ways...I want to get on the internet and order things...I am changing my ways in not doing that...I make goals each and every day in things I want to accomphish....Where I want to save...what I want to get done...And the good thing about the goals is I am getting things done and not spending extra money that is not in the budget I made up....We do have our allowance to spend but man oh man it makes you think twice about spending that money...the things that you had to have just don't seem as important....It's not what I really want to spend my allowance on...talk about retraining your brain on things...I am loving it tho because I am already seeing the results in the bank account...The money is not flying out the window at stuff...What a wake up call I am seeing...It's a good wake up call... I love the no spending challenges...
Stay safe and warm today...may it be filled with many blessings...I still haven't heard from Russ....it must be pretty bad road conditions for him to take this long...
3 comments:
Hope all is well with Russ! I hope you don't have much to shovel, that's hard work. I love the snow too, not ice on the road though. The snow brings with it a sort of hush. I enjoy that.ReplyDelete
You sound as if you are doing well with your goals. I'm still working on mine! I hope you have a wonderful day!
Hi lisa,ReplyDelete
You are doing well with your goals. Dave 's tummy can't handle a lot of red meat. Me on the other hand I need it to keep my blood sugar stable. I have decided to stop fretting over our high food bill. Instead I am thankful we can eat healthy. I keep saying it is what it is and I do the best I can.
I just made an apple cake for Dave's snacks.
Stay warm.
Glad to hear he finally made it to work safe and sound. I'm not much of a snow driver either so I would have turned around and headed for home after the 360 too!ReplyDelete
It's hard budgeting but it's the only way to make things work in my household. We used to be able to eat a few times a month but now with the cost of everything going UP we can only afford to splurge once a month and we all look forward to it.

Peter Dickinson is the British composer, writer and pianist. His music has been written for some of the leading international performers and is well represented on CD. There are four CDs on Albany: Piano Concerto/Outcry/Organ Concerto; Songcycles; Rags, Blues & Parodies; and Pianos, Voices and Brass. Two CDs came out on Naxos in 2009: Complete Solo Organ Works and Mass of the Apocalypse/Larkin's Jazz/Five Forgeries etc. These were followed by Piano Music on Naxos in 2011; reissues of American Song and British Song, both with Meriel Dickinson, on Heritage; a recital with Ralph Holmes; Blue Clavichord; and his musical drama with Thomas Blackburn, The Judas Tree, was released in 2014 - all on Heritage.
Dickinson's 75th birthday in 2009 was marked by performances including the Blue Rose Variations for organ in the BBC Proms, played by David Titterington; Tiananmen 1989 for double choir and tubular bells, sung by Commotio under Matthew Berry in Oxford; the American Trio played by the Zalas Trio at the Wigmore Hall; Jennifer Bate played several organ pieces at the Fourth Annual Festival of New Organ Music and she has recorded his complete solo organ works.
Dickinson's 80th birthday is being recognised with first recordings of his Violin Concerto (Chloe Hanslip) and Merseyside Echoes with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales/Clark Rundell - to be released on Heritage in November along with the two keyboard concertos. There are performances in London, Manchester and Southwold this autumn and several periodical articles in progress, the first in Musical Opinion (October) by Richard Leigh Harris; next in International Record Review (November) by Nigel Simeone; more to follow.
As a performer he had a long career with his sister, the mezzo Meriel Dickinson. Apart from their advocacy of American and British repertoire - see American Song and British Song on Heritage - they pioneered programmes based on composers such as Erik Satie, Lord Berners and Charles Ives in festivals here and abroad and in broadcasts and recordings.
Dickinson's books include The Music of Lennox Berkeley; Marigold: the Music of Billy Mayerl; Copland Connotations: Studies and Interviews; CageTalk: Dialogues with and about John Cage; Lord Berners: Composer, Writer, Painter; Samuel Barber Remembered: a Centenary Tribute and Lennox Berkeley and Friends: Writings, Letters and Interviews.
Dickinson is an Emeritus Professor of the University of Keele, where he set up the Music Department and its Centre for American Music in 1974, and of the University of London, where he was Professor at Goldsmiths College from 1991-97. He was Head of Music at the Institute of United States Studies, University of London, until 2004.
Dickinson is chair of the Bernarr Rainbow Trust, a charity set up in 1997 for the benefit of music education. He has edited and contributed to three major books of Rainbow's - Music in Educational Thought and Practice (2006); Four Centuries of Music Teaching Manuals 1518-1932 (2009); Bernarr Rainbow on Music: Memoirs and Selected Writings (2010); and Music Education in Crisis: the Bernarr Rainbow Lectures and other Assessments (2013).

Report #58 available
The signing of the Framework Agreement in Ohrid on 13 August 2001 by representatives of Macedonia's four largest political parties (two ethnic Macedonian and two ethnic Albanian) presented Macedonia as well as the international community with a unique opportunity to put an end to an ethnic conflict that threatened to destroy the country. In the subsequent years the government coalitions have remained fractioned, and almost no concrete actions had been undertaken to demonstrate to the population that improved ethnic relations and the provisions outlined in the Framework Agreement are the key to a stable political environment and economic prosperity. Given the lack of progress, ECMI identified the need for a project to bring people together to engage in dialogue on concrete policy matters. The hypothesis was that members of different communities have more shared interests and concerns than they realize – and that focusing on these commonalities is a way to not only improve relations, but also to formulate better policy.

Possible Cougar Sighting Near Madras School
Updated On: Oct 18 2011 07:45:37 AM CDT
Could there be a cougar creeping around a Madras school?
The scare came early Tuesday morning, when someone reported seeing the big cat right by Buff Intermediate School.
Officials went on patrol, while the school went on an "extra caution watch," bringing all the kids indoors.
"Out at Warm Springs, it's a common occurrence, we have a sighting out by Warm Springs Elementary yearly. But this is the first time we've had someone see one here in town," said Jefferson County Schools Superintendent Rick Molitor.
Kids were let back outside later in the day, with teachers keeping an extra eye out.
Officials said they had not seen the cougar during their perimeter search.
Meanwhile reports of a bear sighting on South Adams Road in Madras last week remain unconfirmed, officials say.

Cue the screaming girls! On August 1, the sexy singer performed his hot new song at the Young Hollywood Awards, and the crowd loved it! Was it the best performance of the night?
Cody Simpson killed it at this year's Young Hollywood Awards on August 1! Our favorite up-and-coming blond heartthrob lighted up the stage with a spell binding performance of "Pretty Brown Eyes," and his dance moves were legendary.
Cody Simpson Rocks The Stage At The YHA's
Cody, 16, wore a blue shirt and dark pants for the performance at the Broad Theatre in Santa Monica, and he looked so cute while singing and playing his guitar.
The song is one of many of his amazing new album, and it looks like Cody is going to get even more fans when it he releases the video!
Cody Simpson Releases Album Surfer's Paradise
Cody released one of the best albums of the summer this year with Surfer's Paradise, which really showcases his laid back, Aussie vibe.
His first single off the album is the song he performed at the YHA's, "Pretty Brown Eyes," which has an upbeat banger with a bit of a One Direction vibe.
But then there's "Summertime Of Our Lives," Cody's second single off of Surfer's Paradise. Featuring some sweet ukelele-playing by Cody, "Summertime Of Our Lives" is a quieter love song, and it is a nice contrast to his more upbeat numbers!
What do YOU think HollywoodLifers? Did YOU love Cody's performance? Was it the best of the night?

Here is a comparison, citizens of Digby: 2011 census, for Morden, Manitoba. Served by Mayor and 6 councillors. Population 7,812 and growing! "Councillors Danny Harvieux and Brian Manzer both spoke in favour of the status quo because they value the breadth of opinion and perspectives." How about, ask the public what they think once in a while! "With a small council, you can get tunnel vision pretty quick," said Manzer. Really, than maybe it's time to "exit stage right!" Manzer was also worried that a small council would complain about being overworked and decide they need a raise, cancelling out any possible savings. "It's happened other places," he said. Seriously people, they chose the path for public service. Don't let "other places" dictate how your money is spent when it comes to the politics. Don't let them play you! They don't need these numbers on council, period! The City of Morden is proof!

Fifty Plants that Changed the Course of History Book Review
By Angela Youngman Feb 23, 2011, 21:23 GMT
The fascinating stories of the plants that changed civilizations. Fifty Plants that Changed the Course of History is a beautifully presented guide to the plants that have had the greatest impact on human civilization. Entries feature a description of the plant, its botanical name, its native range and its primary functions -- edible, medicinal, commercial or practical. Concise text is highlighted by elegant botanical drawings, ...more
We take plants for granted - but they have had a major influence on our lives. In this book, Bill Laws looks at fifty plants which have truly changed the course of history - from cotton to tea, wheat to grapes. The less well known are also covered such as hops, ginger, tulips, sugarcane, black pepper and indigo.
For each plant covered, an outline of its history is provided, together with an explanation as to its historic importance. As Laws shows, plants have not always proved a happy event for everyone - the arrival of cotton and sugar cane made a tremendous difference to diet and clothing for many people - but it also meant slavery for others.
The tremendous journeys that plants have made are charted -apples first began to be traded 1,500 years ago. Since then apples have become a favorite fruit, eaten all over the world and even helped Newton discover the secret of gravity. It shows too, how little the use of some plants has changed - rose oil is just as desirable a perfume today as it was nearly three thousand years ago.
This is an unusual, but very fascinating book. It is not an easy read, you need to concentrate all the way through. There is so much detail, so much information that at times you have to stop just to digest it. I really enjoyed this book - it is well worth reading.

Participating in this hobby we call video gaming is not unlike dating: You shell out lots and lots of dough to, hopefully, find something with which you can stay up all night. Gaming is an expensive hobby that features escalating prices that no other popular entertainment medium can match. A new movie ticket will set you back, roughly, $5 to $12 depending on location (even more if you're taking in 3D or IMAX flicks), and a new CD approximately $10-$13 depending on the retailer.
Fresh, retail video games, on the other hand, drain your wallet $40 to $60 at a time. Even if gamers limited themselves to used games (which may not constitute a grand a bargain depending on the title), or download-only titles such as Limbo or Shank, the hobby can still prove quite pricey. Gaming on the super-cheap, however, is still very possible if you dive into the wondrous world of free-to-play online games.
Free-to-play games can encompass single-player browser-based games (such as Farmville), downloadable MMO titles that you play online with others (such as Champions Online), or squad-based shooters (Team Fortress 2). The developers and publishers procure cash by offering premium accounts that give gamers more functionality, delivering in-game advertising, or selling in-game items. Here are some of the more intriguing free online games.
Champions Online
NCSoft's superhero MMO, the team's follow-up to City of Heroes and City of Villains, offers aspiring crime-fighters the opportunity to live out their cape-and-tights dreams. Players create superheroes based on any of nine archetypes (ranging from hulking Behemoths to sharpshooting Marksmen), with limited costume customization that opens up as you open your wallet. Level 25 players can create their own Nemesis, an arch-villain who can send his minions after you during the game.
Drift City
NPLUTP/NHN Corporation/ijji's open-ended racing MMORPG gives you the freedom to get a little fast, a little furious. Drift City has no set path to follow; you can choose to follow the main story, complete side missions, race in the Battle Zone, or just drive around and explore. Unleash Combo Skills to fill your Booster Gauge, a speed boost that will let you bypass opponents. As you'd expect from a MMO, you can play with others–join up with friends, create a crew, and burn up the asphalt together.
Dungeon Fighter Online
Dungeon Fighter Online, a mash up of the traditional 2D foot-to-face brawler and fantasy MMORPG, sees players adopting one of five character archetypes (Gunner, Priest, Mage, Fighter, Slayer), and scour dungeons to slay a large volume of enemies. You can battle other players in the Player vs. Player (PvP arena), even customize your look and gear through item drops and in-game micro transactions. It's fast, hard, hitting, and easy to pick up and play–the mark of a well-designed beat 'em up.
Freestyle Street Basketball
JCE/Game Kiss' Freestyle Street Basketball brings the free-to-play MMORPG model to a genre that rarely sees its touch–sports. This b-ball game cribs elements from Street Hoops, NBA Jam, and the traditional basketball simulation, and infuses it with anime-style visuals to create a fun, fast-moving, video game title. Level up your baller and obtain sneakers, headbands, wristbands, and other athletic gear that lets your created character execute monster dunks, swift steals, and gargantuan blocks.
Hawken, a mech action-sim that recently received $10 million in funding, is a free-to-play PC game (currently in closed beta) that appeals to the inner pubescent boy who still dreams of piloting lumbering metal machines that rocket around bombed-out environments while delivering Macross-style missile swarm payloads. Featuring tons of customization and a hefty amount of multiplayer modes, Hawken is one to check out when it exits closed beta on 12-12-12. Check out our interview with Adhesive Games's creative director Khang Le for more tasty details.
League of Legends
Riot Games's mega-popular real-time strategy games features two "Champions" teams engaged in either three vs. three or five vs. five combat. Each player begins at opposing sides of a map with the mission to destroy the opposing side's Nexus while plowing through Turrets, monsters, and minions.
Team Fortress 2
Valve's terrific team-based FPS, Team Fortress 2, made the surprising move to the free-to-play model in 2011, making the classic, humor-filled, spy-and-espionage-themed shooter one of the best free-to-play games available today. It features nine classes which span the offensive, defensive, and support classes. Similar to other free-to-play games, Team Fortress 2 features an in-game store where users can purchase gear, equipment, and other items.

Dexter agrees with Nathan H. Hand's notice of a balance of $3.59 against him in the Yahoola books. He adds that Judge Rice judges the transaction legal and does not question his method of payment. Dexter asserts that he would like to sell the mill and wants Boyd to talk to Peck about doing so. He adds that Peck thinks the mill will sell. Dexter asks Boyd to represent him in the sale of the mill and to take care of the transfer and receipt of funds. He then lists a mule, wagons, and office furniture he would like turned over to him and suggests prices for a few of the items. Dexter suggests that Hand may be interested in the office furniture. He urges Boyd to get possession of the mule in order to ensure that the mule is well-cared for. Dexter closes with well-wishes to mutual friends who have just married. Document ID: mka011.

Get your beach body ready, because Las Vegas today kicked off its pool/dayclub season today, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Beach party fans will have more choice this year, with established pools such as the Palms likely to be more aggressive in courting customers this year and newer pools scheduled to open in the next two months, the article says.
The Palms Casino Resort opened its pool today, two weeks earlier than usual but still with entertainment on weekends, the article says. The hotel's popular Ditch Fridays pool party, however, officially gets launched on May 7 (front-of-line tickets cost $25; the pool area holds 2,500 people, according to the website). This year, the hotel is also extending hours on Fridays and Saturdays and launching other new initiatives, the story says. Expect more big-name DJs this year.
"We're going to be more aggressive this year than ever," a Palms exec told the Review-Journal.
Pool parties at Vegas resorts have grown popular in the last five years - and the trend keeps expanding, with some people even planning their vacations around a pool party, an MGM Grand exec told the Review-Journal.
The MGM Grand's Wet Republic pool party is scheduled to open March 12.
Aria - one of the new hotels at CityCenter - opens its Liquid adult-only pool lounge and restaurant this summer. But the Review-Journal says many people are awaiting the Encore Beach Club at the Encore. It's a 60,000-square-foot pool party pad with three pools, a nightclub, double-decker air-conditioned cabanas and more, the story says. It's set to open Memorial Day weekend, according to the Review-Journal.

USS Norfolk Packet, a 349-ton mortar schooner, was built in 1851 at East Haddam, Connecticut, as a civilian vessel. She was purchased by the Navy in September 1861 and commissioned in February 1862 after conversion to a warship. During the next several months, she operated on the lower Mississippi River, participating in bombardments of Forts Jackson and St. Philip, below New Orleans, in April and Vicksburg, Mississippi, in June and July.
Transferred to the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron in November 1862, Norfolk Packet served off South Carolina, Georgia and Florida for the rest of the Civil War. She shelled Fort McAllister, Georgia, in March 1863 and later captured three sailing blockade runners. USS Norfolk Packet was decommissioned in July 1865 and sold a month later.
