A favorite film bogeyman for decades, Jack the Ripper returns in an engrossing thriller that adds a persuasive theory about his identity to the expected slayings and dismemberments. Marked by a compelling performance by Johnny Depp and a production several notches above genre standards, From Hell is poised to draw in a lot more than niche horror fans.
London's Whitechapel district in 1888 is a fetid swamp of doss houses, pubs and dead-end alleys. Prostitutes like Mary Kelly (Heather Graham) must fight brutal extortionists who want a cut of their take. A visit from former streetwalker Ann Crook (Joanna Page), now married to a wealthy aristocrat, sets off a string of vicious murders among Mary's friends.
Police inspector Fred Abberline (Johnny Depp) has been addicted to opium and laudanum since the death of his wife in childbirth. As the corpses pile up, he tries to make sense of the apparently random violence. Clues indicate that the killer is wellborn, leading Abberline to question Sir William Gull (Ian Holm), physician to the Royal Family.
Gull agrees that the killer shows a remarkable knowledge of anatomy, but Abberline's superior, Sir Charles Warren (Ian Richardson), seems curiously reluctant to allow the case to proceed. Frustrated, Abberline turns to the suspicious Mary for help. Together, they track down Ann Crook, missing since the first murder. Abberline uncovers links to the Special Branch, a secret police unit, and the Freemasons, a quasi-religious sect. But he is powerless to prevent further killings--even when the evidence points to Mary as the next victim.
Set almost entirely within the slums of Whitechapel, From Hell revels in dank boarding houses, smoke-filled saloons, and fearsome hansom cabs that career through narrow streets. The filmmakers have concocted a sinister world in which grapes are considered luxuries, where the police are at the service of a largely corrupt upper class, and where lobotomies are delivered without anesthesia. The adroit script combines several genres, from horror to film noir to period spectacle, while remaining true to their traditions. As a mystery, it offers a half-dozen suspects, arcane clues, and murky conspiracy theories involving clandestine sects. As a romance, it gives us doomed lovers who are betrayed at every turn. The horror elements are especially satisfying. The slashing, jarring violence feels accurate and chilling, but directors Allen and Albert Hughes use gore judiciously and resist cheap shocks.
Depp, sporting a working-class British accent, has finally found an anti-hero role that works. Given his character's past, and the scope of the conspiracy he faces, it's no wonder he is prone to paranoia and despair. The largely British supporting cast is a delight, especially the Ians Holm and Richardson, whose work evokes the best of Hammer Films. Literate and entertaining, From Hell should help erase the memory of the more dismal slasher movies of the past.

"This is a lot different from our Airstream trips last year, on the west side," said Ralph. He's right: gone is the pouring rain, incessant windshield wiper noise, smell of soggy dog. Welcome to late winter camping in Central Oregon: 64 degrees, blue sky, the night sparkling with stars. (Before I sound too giddy, it was a mild winter across the state; even wet, miserable Portland got a break.)
Our destination: the town of Summer Lake, only 100 miles from our snow-covered driveway in Bend.
What happened to Frenchglen? I recall passing through fifteen years ago to find an oasis in the desert: enchantingly upscale accommodations; a country store tastefully merchandised with fine handmade gifts and locally grown produce and cheeses; espresso. Now, the Mercantile, once beamed directly from Marin County, squats forlornly behind the Iron Curtain with its half-empty shelves of dirty gourds and stale-looking cracker boxes. And the hotel? No longer on my short list of places to honeymoon.
What goggles did I have on?
bend, autumn
The first day of fall in Bend. Ahh. Most of the tourist trade has vanished (I'm told), and the hipsters have slunk back to Portland and their PBRs. Locals are relaxing, the sky is blue, and the craft beer is flowing.
When I moved to Portland twenty years ago I had not yet heard of hefeweizen and immediately contracted OBD (Oregon Butt Disease), which manifests as fifteen sudden pounds in the posterior caused by too many 200-calorie pints. I've since switched to red wine and martinis but now that I'm #inbend, I'm rediscovering beer.
First stop: Oktoberfest, downtown.
pendleton round-up
I towed into Pendleton, Oregon minutes before the Westward Ho! parade and faced nowhere to park; every empty slot and lot teemed with RVs and horse trailers and teepees. Somehow I squeezed into a miracle spot in the WalMart parking lot, stuffed to the curbs with motorhomes, tents, and rednecks camped in the beds of their pickups…like spring break for hillbillies. I followed the crowd and piles of manure on Court Street to the all non-motorized parade which showcased wild west wagons and buggies, all manner of cowboy, Indians, Mexicans, sheriffs, preachers, outlaws, firemen, Oregon Trail pioneers, weird timber equipment, every rodeo princess in the Northwest, longhorns, mules, donkeys, horses, miniature ponies, and State Treasurer Ted Wheeler.
wally byam's birthday
I used to be crazy-patriotic. I walked precincts for the party when I was eleven, voted in every election since I've been able (wearing pajamas to the dorm polling place to be first in line at age 18), and I know every flag etiquette rule and the harmony part to This Land is Your Land. I grew out of it though, jaded in recent years by my understanding of the bigger world, media massaging, and our electoral system.
But, this Independence Day I had to turn my head so no one would see me choking up over a red white and blue birthday cake.
there's no place like (a new) home
This month we started the bassackward process of relocating our belongings to Bend, Oregon, a three-plus hour drive from Portland.
Why Bend? It's a fishin' hikin' skiin' bikin' town, all activities Ralph enjoys and I will, too when the right loaded firearm is pointed at my head. Compared to hipster Portland ("a city where young people go to retire," as observed in Portlandia), Bend culture can best be described as "emerging". But I love the pine smells, the clean high desert ambience and relative lack of traffic #inBend. The new house, set back from the street and far from the neighbors, is surrounded instead by wildlife and easterly views, and came with a pull through driveway and civilized gravel pad upon which to park the DWR.
Laura and Kevin, the Oregon couple I interviewed for Airstream Life ("The Technomads", Winter, 2010), own a stomp-gorgeous 2010 27′ International. I dropped by to spend a splendid morning where they were glamped at Champoeg State Park only thirty miles from Portland, where the couple enjoys taking their writing work while they take in the view. (Sometimes they tow over to the coast, for a different scene from their picture window.)
Both hightech creatives, they've upgunned their rig with sleek silver and chocolate upholstery, and the tastiest of household conveniences (down to the ingenious key holder by the door, magnetic spice jars, and wine rack under the bed).
the dalles
Why we waited to replace a four year old battery until the day it died—the morning of a road trip—is indicative of how we roll. Ralph, not what anyone would describe as a grease monkey, struggled with the issues surrounding its replacement and we were off like a herd of turtles to The Dalles only three hours past ETD.
The Dalles, Oregon: the town that sounds awkward in any sentence.
Tillamook, Oregon is a depressing working class town with two agreeable ways to kill an afternoon.
According to the tourist brochure, the Tillamook Cheese factory is one of the top ten visitor attractions in Oregon. (California this isn't.) Signage inside reads "nearly 1 million visitors stop at the Tillamook Cheese Visitors Center" (a day? a year? since the beginning of time?)
It's easy to ignore the many badly-designed, text dense displays; the entire factory —packing machines, conveyor belts, workerbees—is visible behind glass from observation decks. ("Wouldn't it be great if they piped in Raymond Scott music?" said Ralph.)
cape lookout
It was 21 degrees when we left Portland on New Year's Eve day and it wasn't much warmer at Cape Lookout State Park on the Oregon Coast, but the sky was a promising blue.
We unhitched the Airstream and drove to nearby Netarts to celebrate over steak and cocktails at the fanciest lounge we could find. "A lot of people here, are, uh…missing teeth," Ralph observed. Somehow the evening cartwheeled into a fireball and we returned to the trailer after a wicked argument and fell asleep—back to back—by 9pm.
New Year's day dawned clear and cold, offering a fresh start.

Apparently the qualifications necessary to become a 'professional' truck driver are much different in NL than anywhere else in the world. I wonder how long this driver was in training before achieving his level of expertise. Undoubtedly the courts will go easy on him because he didn't actually kill anyone - this time. A slap on the wrist, a caution not to do it again, and he'll be back on the roads in no time. The judge will probably claim that there were extenuating circumstances and, well, it's the Christmas season and that 'buddy' was under a lot of stress etc. etc. Personally I'd ban this 'professional' from driving for life but I suspect he'd just drive without a licence anyway. He evidently doesn't have much respect for the laws or fellow citizens.

A semi-rig driver...3 and 1/2 times over the legal limit...those guys can be scary sober. I, for one, have a great and profound respect for the semi-truck, for the size and weight, if nothing else. To think that this individual does not respect how lethal these rigs have the potential to be, clearly indicates that he has no respect for what he's in control of and for the people he's putting at risk. I would bet that this guy is the sort that pulls out in front of traffic, cuts people off and drives like he owns the road, simply because he can and he knows that in an accident, he's not likely to be the one hurt or killed. I hope this guy never gets behind the wheel again. Find another career, that doesn't involve thousands of pounds of potentially lethal equipment.

He should have been described as being a professional "scumbag" from St.John's. They need to throw the book heavily at this clown but won't.He'll get a lecture and get off scott free and be driving again in a few months. Imagine the potential tragic consequences of this loser driving a huge trunk,loaded drunk down the highway,especially when the divided lanes end.Luckily that citizen phoned him in or there could be several deaths to report today. You are a hero whoever phoned this in. The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me!

A dense, round-headed, high-branching small tree with slender upright branches-short trunk. Native to southeastern U.S.
* To calculate the planting distance between different size trees, add the distances between each species in the column and divide answer in half. Example: the distance between a Red Maple (large tree) and Amur Maple (small tree) is calculated: 25 feet + 15 feet = 40 feet ÷ 2 = 20 feet. The distance between these two different size trees should be 20 feet.

The Bike Unit surpassed all stated Goals and Objectives The Bike Unit focused on prevention of gym and park burglaries. The unit focused during the summer in unmarked patrol in the parks and gyms. During this period, members had to adjust their schedules to address current crime trends. One of the biggest accomplishments the Bike Unit has is the ability to work and network with all the separate units in the department. With this teamwork many great things were accomplished and exemplified the essence of teamwork. The unit had a total of 35 assists to other units throughout the course of the year.
The unit also assisted Sex Crimes with a potential serial sex offender who was stalking women who were walking in the area of Forrest Hills Blvd. Bike Officers were able to arrest a subject. The victim was able to positively ID the subject as the person who grabbed her.
The unit also assisted the YLO Unit with school releases during the year.
The High School and Middle school releases have become quite a problem for the department during the year responding to fight calls and disturbances. The Bike Unit conducted 202 separate school releases during the year. They also made 13 arrests during the year for fighting during the releases. Unit members assisted the training unit on several occasions
The bike unit also teamed up with parks and recreation. Each member was responsible for a certain major park. They teamed up with a park ranger at the park to address issues in the parks.

The Walkers learn the true meaning of family. watch
One of the trickier balancing acts of the season is being performed by Fox's Red Band Society (Wednesday, 9/8c), which aims to be a feel-good show about kids who feel bad. As in indefinite-hospital-stay bad. Amputation bad. Eating disorder, heart disease and cancer bad.
For the hospital kids of Red Band Society, death may be around the corner, but life is just beginning.
Set in the children's ward of a Los Angeles hospital, Red Band Society (premieres Wednesday, 9/8c, Fox) is about an unlikely group of friends who've come together — some begrudgingly — to face their life-threatening sicknesses. Zoe Levin, Charlie Rowe, Brian "Astro" Bradley, Ciara Bravo and Nolan Sotillo make up the Breakfast Club-like gang, while Griffin Gluck stars as a coma patient from whose perspective and narrative the story is told.

Fox is aiming to establish a new kind of "brat pack" with its coming-of-age drama Red Band Society.
Set in the children's ward of a Los Angeles hospital, Red Band Society follows a Breakfast Club-esque group of patients as they such face life-changing — and life-threatening — challenges. Zoe Levin, Charlie Rowe, Astro, Ciara Bravo, and Nolan Sotillo star as the unlikely group of friends. Dave Annable, Rebecca Rittenhouse and Oscar winner Octavia Spencer take on the adult roles of the doctors and nurses who mentor them through the ups and downs of adolescence.

TV fans looking to get a head start on checking out the new fall shows can now watch the pilot for Fox's Red Band Society — but the episode will only be available until Tuesday, Aug. 26 until 5 p.m. ET.
Gotham City to the rescue? Fox certainly hopes Gotham, its dark and stylish noir set in the corrupt, broken pre-Batman metropolis, will revive the fortunes of a network undergoing one of its most significant leadership transitions. (The architect of this fall's schedule, Kevin Reilly, stepped down in late May, and Dana Walden and Gary Newman, the Fox Studio heads who will take over network oversight in a more streamlined operation, won't start their new positions until the end of the month.)
The Gotham panel was the first and most impressive new-series presentation on Fox's day at the TCA press tour. (For more Fox news, go here.) With its revisionist twist on Batman mythology as it spills out origin stories featuring various supervillains-to-be, Gotham is the buzziest show on Fox's fall slate — airing on Mondays alongside breakout hit Sleepy Hollow won't hurt — but it's not without risk.

This is a great product. The video content was excellent. It was presented in an easy to understand fashion. The FAA Written Knowledge Practice Test questions were invaluable! After completing the requirements in Sporty's Learn To Fly Course, Sporty's sent me my logbook endorsement to take the FAA Written Knowledge Test within a few hours. Thanks to this course I easily passed my FAA Written Knowledge Test on the first try! I highly recommend this course, as the price is very reasonable when compared to going to hours and hours of ground school.

Great ProductPros
This product was very easy to use. The videos made it seem like I was in a classroom environment and the material was presented in a manner that I could understand it. The Test Prep Section also help me prepare for my written.Cons
The graphics such as sections were difficult to use in the test prep section. It got to a point that I didn't use them. I would recommend getting you hands on a written test graphics to use along with this product.General Comments
Overall, I was very satisfied with this product. I scored a 90 on my written test prep and I passed my check ride. This product a had me well prepare along with my instructor. I am going to check out the instrument training course too.

Still learningPros
Great videos. Love the 'study buddy'. Many ways to learn.Cons
Laid out to be used in conjunction with flight lessons. If you are not using an instructor that uses this particular product, then the layout and structure is a bit confusing.General Comments
I wanted a product that would get me past the written test. A home study product and then go and start actual flight lessons. I'm not completely satisfied. I am NOT saying this is not a great product. The videos are professional and very informative. I love the 'Air Facts' video that help me understand not only what I'm learning but how it applies (will apply) to my real life flying. I also love the 'study buddy' and the multiple ways to use it to prepare for the written. I am saying that I have had to find other resources (like the FAA pilots handbook and the 2014 AIM) to really feel confidant I am ready for the written FAA exam. Yes I would recommend this product, but be ready to find other resources to really feel comfortable for the written.

( No Cons Listed From Reviewer )General Comments
I will say that the video quality (although still very good) is less, making the download times faster than on the online version of this course where you had to stream it. It worked so much better for me since I have slower internet.

Good presentation, lots of information. Recommend if you have spare $199 to watch well presented videos to complement the FAA study books.Cons
Trying to take the test is impossible without having the printed charts to plot course, measure course angles. Unfortunately....charts are not mailed when the product is ordered.General Comments
Good videos to watch if you already have a printed version of the workbook as sold by Gleim, ASA and others. I think a little overpriced when others are available for $99.00

City still doesn't have any money | Letters | Dec. 18
Since Alan Simcoe in his Dec. 4 letter called me out by name, I would like the opportunity to respond to him in print.
Alan Simcoe, you forgot Reason #4: COBI does not have the money. Taxpayers are stretched to the max. See the concurrent Review article: "Sewer rates in Winslow to increase 111 percent."
As to my own bona fides re support for the arts, I am right now a member of an island arts committee for a nonprofit organization planning to acquire hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of art in bronze, glass, stone, oil, steel, wood, etc.
And exactly zero dollars will come from taxpayer funds.

Dog Party GuideFreebies & Fun
The party guide helps plan a themed Dog event with ideas, tips in the food departments, creative crafts, and clever conversation chats, menus, recipes, cookies, cakes and food labels. Free printable games, puzzles, place name cards and coloring pages.
Dog History, Facts and Educational Resources
Add an educational twist to any birthday party, holiday celebration, or theme party. Share the history of the Dog theme to the guests. Play some free printable educational party games. Shhh don't tell the kids that they are learning!
Dog History & FactsA boy and his dog, somewhat of an all American favorite story, regardless if you are a fan of Snoopy or the all time historical book Where the Red fern grows. This is one thing that can offer a great party starter or theme among the kids and when it comes to planning a school event or party having a dog can be used to your benefit. As you get ready for the event if you have pets of your own and a dog educate the kids of the history of dogs and how they became to be known as mans best friend. That is something that will help you along the way with keeping their interest. If you are having a pet or dog party at home use that to your advantage as well, have dog tricks and facts ready to use as a Snoopy themed trivia game for the kids and you can throw a pet and dog show.
Most people are amazed at the history behind many celebrations and how music from the past and present will add to the event. Like other get togethers this small addition will add a great deal to the celebration. For this reason,guests of the party will find this celebration to be a lot of fun and very special. If you decide to go through and have a backyard or rented venue Snoopy dog and pet show you will be able to send out invitations from your dog to the other dogs asking THEM to bring their owners (not the other way around) and refer to it as a modeling or fashion show for dogs, and yes you can give out first second and third place awards trophies or ribbons to the kids and their pets. If you are serving food make brownies or cookies shaped as dog biscuits and treats and offer true dog treats for the four legged friends and guests as well. When decorating a room to match a given theme or idea explore not just the horizontal space, but the vertical space as well. Simple and well prepared food is often much better received at a gathering than complicated dished that don't quite hit the mark. When decorating a room to match a given theme or idea explore not just the horizontal space, but the vertical space as well. The history of Dog has different interpretations by each person, so use your own judgement. Share these facts with friends at a celebration.
Educational Dog ResourcesThe Party Supplies Hut has more free elementary educational teacher resources for Dog to use in the classroom for active learning to create lesson plans with trivia questions, games and fun activities.

Teachers at Durant Road Middle School and the Wake Education Partnership teamed up this month to highlight a teaching method many Wake County educators say makes them more effective, and helps their students better understand their classroom lessons. It's called "flipping the classroom."
Teachers record short video lessons and post them online. Students' homework assignment is to watch the video and then come in to class the next day ready to ask questions and collaborate with their classmates to understand the lesson.
The videos allow students to move through the lessons at their own pace at home, and replay the videos if necessary. The short videos can also help parents learn the material so they can provide at-home help.
"I get to do more fun activities with my kids and I can have more one-on-one time with them and help them, and really meet their needs more than I used to be able to in a big classroom," Durant Road teacher Kristin McConnell said.

text: I quite enjoyed it and if you liked the original film and The Expendables then you will probably like this as well. If you didn't then you almost certainly won't like it. I feel it is a bit like the Ocean Eleven films as this runs out of ideas after a pretty good first film before half way in this film. if there is a third film I probably won't bother going. On a quiet weekend for cinema releases not a bad film just not really good enough to warrant paying full price. If you want to chance it I would suggest Wednesday night on a 2 for 1 deal with a friend. Its an ok 2 star film not really good enough to be a 3 star though.

The decision is fast approaching to see if the Rockford School District 205 referendum will pass.
On Sunday, R.E.A.C.H. or Rockford Educating All Children started their campaign for a "no" vote this November. The committee wants to "raise achievement, not taxes."
The group says that the tax increase is not necessary since the district will receive about $4.2 million whether the tax referendum passes or fails. R.E.A.C.H. says the district needs to take the created deficit into their own hands and figure out what can be eliminated.
R.E.A.C.H. and the Rockford school district's referendum committee will have a chance to discuss the referendum in person at a scheduled debate. The debate is Monday, Oct. 21, 2002 at 7 p.m. The location is the IBEW Building on Mill Road.

GK Chesterton seems a little too weirded out by the East. I suppose
'Orientals' really were strange and unfamiliar, almost alien, to these
Occidentals. The Chinaman—what an old term—is cited as an example of
the strange and unknowable, because China was not connected to them by
'a bridge of old tradition'. GK Chesterton could identify more with
David and Isaiah than with Asians in his own time.
I know the influence of Egypt, Babylon, Rome and Greece, but they
don't account for all that I am. I don't know enough about the ancient
civilizations of Asia to really identify with them, either, but there
is that feeling of being _home_ here.
I should remember that this 'civilized history' he writes of is only
_his_ civilized history. =)

New York planetarium to host 200-player space game tonight (video)
Got plans for this evening? Cancel them now, and do everything you can to sneak into New York's Museum of Natural History. Because tonight, the museum's planetarium will play host to a 200-person space game, courtesy of Brooklyn's Babycastles arcade. It's all part of the museum's "Cosmic Cocktails and Space Arcade" evening — an event that seems tailor made for anyone interested in cosmology, humans, and/or hallucinogens. The showcase of the soiree is the Space Cruiser game, which promises to turn the ceiling of the Rose Center for Earth and Space into a "living, breathing, space ship where participants navigate around a beautiful fictitious universe." With the Magnetic Fields' Stephin Merritt assuming the tripartite role of ship captain-navigator-narrator, the game apparently begins with the birth of the universe, before transporting visitors across new galaxies and through time-bending wormholes. The ship launches at 6:30 PM tonight, but unfortunately, tickets are already sold out. Head past the break, though, for a rather "duuuude"-inducing video.

Comments about Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Telescope Color Filter Set:
Great item for a low price. I am new to astronomy and would recommend this for anyone that is new to the hobby.
The moon filter does a great job cutting back on glare and makes it easier to see the details.
I have used the yellow filter on Mars but I will need to purchase a more powerful eyepiece to help with the detail.

Comments about Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Telescope Color Filter Set:
Light weight, easy to use filters that have a firm fit, covers all usual needs. Well worth having for lunar and planetary observations.

Best Uses
Comments about Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Telescope Color Filter Set:
I'm pretty new to astronomy, and planetary observation was one of the greatest draws to my getting a telescope in the first place. Since Mars is up right now, it only seemed appropriate that I compare/contrast the view with and without the filter. The amount of detail to be seen in Mars is dramatically increased (I'm referring to the light-blue filter which the included instructions recommended for Mars) as was the full moon with the included lunar filter. This was a great start for me filter-wise!

Comments about Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Telescope Color Filter Set:
works great with my etx 60.
Displaying reviews 1-5
Previous | Next »
Q1: Will this filter set work on my Meade ETX-125 eyepieces?
A: Yes, Those filters are the standard 1-1/4 inch format, just like your eyepieces on your Meade ETX. They will thread onto the eyepiece perfectly.
Q2: Wiil this set work with series 5000 eyepieces
A: Yes, the #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set will work just fine with Series 5000 eyepieces.
Q3: I have the beginners Telestar 60AZ-A. 1.Will these filters fit the 60AZ-A? 2.Are these filters narrowband, or nebula filters? The text Im reading says that narrowband, or nebula filters are a better choice for viewing emission nebulas. Thanks, Chris
A: The #3200 Lunar & Planetary Filter Set is primary for viewing the Moon and planets. The filters will fit just about any 1.25-inch eyepiece, including those in your Telestar. As your text indicates, narrowband, nebular filters are the best ones for viewing emission nebulae. Here's the URL for a narrowband nebular filter that eliminates most artificial light; just paste it into your browser's address window to see the filter: http://telescopes.com/products/Meade_908N_Narrowband_Nebular_Filter_1.25_Inch_18373.html.
Q4: I live in a small urban area, but with some light polution. I was wondering what type of filter to get. Thank you very much.
A: We recommend the Celestron UHC/LPR filter. It blocks wavelengths of artificial light, leaving you with an ultra high-contrast image. Here's the URL; just paste it into your browser's address window: http://telescopes.com/products/celestron-uhclpr-filter-1-25-inch-32972.html.
Q5: I have a Celestron Casegrain 8" 1 1/4. Can I use the Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set filter ?
A: Yes, you can use the Meade #3200 set with any telescope having a 1.25-inch format.
Q6: what are the Wratten numbers for these filters? Thanks!
A: Meade does not list Wratten numbers for these filters. However, the Wratten number for light red is #23A, light yellow is #12 and light blue is #82A. Neutral-Density is 96-0.9.
Q7: Can this be fitted on the Meade 114EQ?
A: Yes, the filters in the Meade #3200 Lunar & Planetary Color Filter Set can be used with the Meade 114EQ telescope. The filters thread onto the eyepieces.

Australian Radio with Daughter of Abducted Mother
Her mother, Mahnaz Azizi, is a member of the People's Mojahedeen Organisation of Iran (PMOI), an outlawed Iranian opposition group whose members have sought asylum in Iraq, at Camp Ashraf. Earlier last year, 3200 Iranian exiles were transferred to Camp Hurriya. Ms Barouti was one of those moved; her mother stayed at Camp Ashraf.
On 1 September, the camp was attacked, and 52 residents were killed (News, 13 September). Ms Azizi was one of seven people who disappeared. A Spanish court announced last month that it would investigate Faleh al-Fayad, the security adviser to the Iraqi Prime Minister, Nouri al-Maliki, for "alleged involvement" in the massacre and abductions.
"It is clear to everyone that the seven hostages are in the hands of Maliki's government, incarcerated in his prisons," Miss Barouti said. "There's no doubt that they are in Iraq, and are facing the threat of being extradited to Iran."
The Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances reported that "Iraqi forces allegedly admitted having these individuals in custody." The Iraqi authorities, however, have re-peatedly denied involvement in the attack.
"I feel outrage and disappointment at the silence and inaction of the international community, namely President Obama and the UN, who had given explicit and solemn pledges for the safety and security of the residents of Ashraf and [Hurriya]," Ms Barouti said on Sunday. "My mother is paying the price of their failure . . . possibly with her life." The "idleness of the US and UN" was "paving the way for more attacks against us", she said.
Now aged 29, Miss Barouti was sent from Iraq to the UK after the Gulf War broke out in 1990, before being reunited with her mother at Camp Ashraf. She has lived at Camp Hurriya for a year.

Internet Movie Database for iOS adds features, takes a few away
The Internet Movie Database (IMDB) is the best resource on the web for all things movie or TV. Reviews, biographies, production details, trailers -- you name it, IMDB has it.
IMDB has launched an updated version of its app for iOS, and added some welcome new features. Looking for showtimes has been improved, TV listings are deeper, and when you search for an actor to see what episodes of a show they have been in, you now can see all of them rather than just 5.
On the other hand, the "on DVD/Blu-ray" feature of app has been scrapped because Amazon, the owner of IMDB, wasn't happy with the information provider. IMDB has also lost a previous feature to link to its web presence from the title and name page due to Apple submission guidelines.
Overall, the update is a solid one, but you'll have to find some alternatives to the features that were removed. DVD and Blu-ray Disc availability, for example, can be found on the Amazon site.
The IMDB app is universal, and requires iOS 7 or later. Happily, the update seems to work fine under iOS 8 beta, so I don't foresee any issues when iOS 8 launches next month.

New best friends monkey around
Date: May 7, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
Spider monkeys Willie and Bonnie bonded instantly.
After each suffered the loss of a cage mate, both monkeys needed a new friend. Willie moved to Sarasota Jungle Gardens from Gatorama, in Palmdale. She and Bonnie were joined together in one cage Tuesday, May 5, after they had been placed in separate enclosures during the quarantine stage.
Many wondered if the 30-year-old females would be compatible. When Willie stretched her golden arm out to meet Bonnie's charcoal fur, it was evident by their sounds and body language that the two would be fast friends.
To see the new furry friends, visit Sarasota Jungle Gardens, 3701 Bay Shore Road.

Spring begins at 7:02am ET, Wednesday, but it will still feel like the middle of Winter in Detroit and Southeast Michigan. Morning temps will be in the low 20s with blustery winds and wind chills in the low teens and single digits.
Snow showers will blossom mid-morning and afternoon with highs only in the upper 20s, over 15 degrees lower than average. Wind speeds will remain high at 15 to 25 mph to keep wind chills in the teens at most.
Wednesday night will have snow showers with lows in the low 20s again.
Thursday will be mostly cloudy, cold and windy again with snow showers and highs in the low 30s.
Friday and the weekend will have sunnier skies with higher temps. Although temps will rise to 40 degrees or slightly more, it will remain chillier than average.

Hello fellow students and readers. Well, I attended the Venice campus' 2011 Honors Convocation today (Friday April 29th) as promised! I must say that the event was a pleasure to be at. First, I would like to congratulate all the honorees who were awarded by their professors and department heads today! I would love to name you all here but there are simply too many of you to list! In case you don't know what the Honors Convocation is, it is held to recognize undergraduate students for their exceptional academic initiative and achievements during the year. All honorees were awarded with certificates, some with books and others with actual scholarship money! This year we in the Phi Theta Kappa donated a beautiful cake, which was delicious as usual, and beverages to honor those awarded. We even had the pleasure of seeing one of our own members honored today, former PTK president Jodi Johnson. She won the Coca Cola Scholarship, and is SCF's very first All-Florida Academic Scholar! Woo hoo Jodi! Jodi happened to be honored by, who will be, our former PTK advisor Stephanie Cook and she really had great things to say of her. Special thanks to Stephanie Cook for being a fantastic advisor for the PTK!
So, what was it like to be there today? I'll tell you…it was inspiring! Did you know that SCF awarded a small group of single-mothers for their outstanding effort and achievements? You do now! Fantastic ladies! I think they have sent a great message of inspiration to their families and other single parents out there, don't you? As was mentioned during the ceremony, many people today are struggling with hard times, children, work, and their academic career. Gas prices alone are enough to make you kick and scream or consider driving one of those ridiculous
scooters, lol.
Seriously though, most could not be honored today but I say you should still be very proud of yourself for juggling all these things so well. If you're still doing it at all, you're doing pretty good right? Keep up the good fight you fellow student warriors, in these hard times, and someday the applause will be for you too. This reminds me of something that very important, that we in the Honor Society are trying to embrace and pass along and it's the need for students to commit to complete their education. I'm not just talking about SCF students, but students all across the Nation. Students in dire times, or sometimes simply at a whim, will drop out of college and we are urging everyone to make a commitment with us to complete your degrees. Our country has a huge drop-out rate, but we can reverse that with some good old tenacity and endurance! SCF happens to be a leading college in our country as far as graduates is concerned, did you know that? I know we can keep this up with you a part of the commitment! These hard working single parents can do it, and so can we. So, spread the word that you are a part of something bigger than simply yourself, which is of course a great cause, but that you are working to put some pride and faith back into our country's future. When the going gets tough, don't flake-out okay? Get tough right back!
By all means, please have a good one!

Making a pitch for women in hard hats
NEW YORK (AP) — Janice Moreno graduated from college with a degree in English literature, but never landed a job paying more than $12 an hour. Now, at 36, she's back in the classroom — in safety glasses and a T-shirt — learning how to be a carpenter.
"I believe it's going to pay off," she said amid instruction in sawing techniques.

December 22, 2014
After sitting on the back burner for a month the issue over burning leaves in Winnebago County is over for the time being. The board voted 13 to 12 to allow limited burning in unincorporated areas. To no one's surprise there were mixed feelings about the decision by both board members and the public.
There will be a one mile buffer zone around Rockford, Loves Park and Pecatonica where burning is still not allowed in unincorporated areas. Jim Webster headed up the solid waste subcommittee responsible for the plan.
Some feel the county board is placing convenience higher on their priority list than public safety. They believe burning puts pollutants into the air that can adversely affect those who have upper respiratory problems. Others say burning actually helps public health by destroying hazardous mold that grows in leaf piles.
For now the issue is settled but if history is any indication, this issue will smolder for a while, and then flare up in the near future.

Hi StahlpredigerJust wondering whether you had found anything useful and interesting with this system. I've looked and have been tempted. What did you mean about "Euro price was interesting" ?Thanks for any feedback.Good luckMark
Hi people!That is right voulgeor the rate for me was ok. I just started following some signals this week on demo and on live. The daily signals seem to work good, but the trades really take some time! €$ is long on Demo since 21 October, entered at 1.49634, TP will be 1.51448. The 4 hour signals work at a 50% rate of success at the moment. The 15 minute signals are to stressy for me at the moment. But this was a hard week for FX, so I would not give a statement right now.Happy doubling!Stahlprediger
does any one has info about this systemhttp://cgi.ebay.com/THE-FX-AGENCY-ADVISOR-2-FOREX-SYSTEM-MUST-HAVE_W0QQitemZ330365659946QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Software?hash=item4ceb53eb2a

Anyway I personally love the fx-agency advisor 2. I have used it for a while now and I would give it a 5\5 star rating.
I hate to admit it, but I was silly enough to buy this EA. But maybe I can save a fellow member some money. Just a whim at the time after seeing the odd good posting.There is no good substance to the vendor or the simplistic indicator.You just get an ea that shows the obvious trend on 12 pairs depending on the time frame chosen.As soon as the trend reverses in the very tight range, the indicator repaints to advise the opposite.No information whatsoever is supplied by the vendor and no replies requesting any suggestions of how to make any real use of the indicator as a system.Mainly I am annoyed at my own gullibility.Basically a scam for the unsuspecting.It is interesting how RANDY 9987 gives 5 stars rating.......enough said I think....STAY CLEAR

How an Entry Is Judged
Regardless of which category a student enters, the following principles of evaluation will be used in the judging of National History Day entries.
Historical Quality
The most important aspect of an entry is its historical quality, which determines 60% of the total evaluation. The judges' evaluation will rest on the students' success at conducting historical research, interpreting their research and drawing conclusions. A superior rating generally reflects positive responses to the following questions:
Is the entry historically accurate?
Does the entry provide analysis and interpretation of the historical data in addition to an accurate description? The entry should not simply recount facts but interpret them.
Does the entry demonstrate an understanding of the historical context--the intellectual, physical, social, and cultural setting of the topic?
Does the entry reflect historical perspective--the causes and consequences of an event, for example, or the relationship of a local topic to larger events?
Does the annotated bibliography demonstrate solid research?
Does the entry demonstrate a balanced presentation of materials?
Does the entry use a variety of viewpoints (e.g., those who suffered as well as those who benefited, males, females, people from different racial or ethnic socioeconomic groups, as appropriate to the topic)?
Does the entry demonstrate the use of available primary sources and secondary sources?
Clarity of Presentation
Although historical quality is most important, entries must be presented in an effective manner. This section is worth 20% of the total evaluation. Do not be carried away by glitz; simpler is often--but not always--better. The following questions will be considered by judges when looking at clarity of presentation:
Is the entry original, creative, well organized, and imaginative in subject and presentation?
Is the entry effective in communicating the significance of the topic?
Is the written material clear, grammatical, and correctly spelled?
In exhibits, are the title, sectional divisions, and main points easy to discern?
Are photographs and images appropriate in terms of content and location?
Is the overall project pleasing to the eye?
In a documentary or performance, is the script clear?
In a performance, do the students display stage presence?
Is the visual material clear and appropriate for the type of entry?
Do the students display adequate familiarity with their equipment?
Adherence to Theme
The entry must clearly explain the relation of the topic to the annual National History Day theme. This section is worth 20% of the total evaluation. The topic should be placed in historical context, and the entry must demonstrate the student's understanding of the significance of the topic in history. The entry should not confuse fame with significance. In other words, the entry should answer the questions, "So what? Why was this important?" It should not be just descriptive. The relationship of the entry's topic to the yearly theme should be explicit and should be integrated into the entry itself.
Evaluation Forms
Copies of all of the judging forms used in district, state and national NHD competition are available for downloading here. These forms are also used by many teachers as rubrics for evaluating student projects.
If you have a PDF plug-in installed with your browser, the form will open in a new window for printing. If not, the PDF file should download to your hard drive, where it can be opened separately with Acrobat Reader 4.0 and printed.

If you have a small garden and don't need 6 plants, please ask your neighbors to join you in ordering, or think of a friend or two that you could give a plant to for a gift! And if you think about it, with the high cost of produce these days, it doesn't take much to offset a $30-40 investment in plants!

Is it possible to create a shared drive in google apps ? I'd like to create a drive for a curriculum set eg Maths department and share that up with the members of the Maths department so they have a shared resource.
I tried doing it by creating a user called maths but doesn't really work like I thought it would (Have to log into the account and create the shares etc.)
Anyone else come up with a solution for this ? Or do I need to stop thinking like windows and start thinking like google ?
I think so too, just one of the complaints I have received is that the "shared with me" starts to look messy once there's a lot of shared stuff in there (Not just curriculum items).
Other reason I was thinking of this was to allow the group to have more space, instead of using their own space for curriculum documents, also a bit of pain if someone leaves (I am aware you can copy docs to another user upon deletion of an account).
I think the best way of doing it is to have a group "teachers of maths" and make sure the staff share their folders with the group.
staff seem to forget that they have to organise the folders (as they do in windows) and also forget that Google is rather good at searching their drive.
I change ownership of all of the documents of a teacher who leaves to their line manager.
caffrey (2nd September 2013)
Existing system is pretty messy in windows anyway (Lots of duplicates) So I expect little change with google Thanks for the pointers
Why not create an account an account "curriculum". Inside that account create a folder for each curriculum area. Share that folder with each appropriate curriculum area leader. Then the maths curriculum leader (for example) can share that folder with the people in their department. When a maths teacher (for example) creates or uploads a file to the maths shared folder, the sharing settings are maintained so that everyone has access to the document.
An idea would be that anyone who creates a file within the shared folder change ownership of the file to "curriculum" so that it doesn't matter if anyone leaves.
Working this way requires a couple of things (in my experience):
1) the curriculum area leader has to know what they are doing
2) staff have to let go of the "its mine but I'm sharing" mentality so that creating a document but changing ownership to curriculum recognises that the school owns documents people create at school
3) requires discipline from the curriculum area leader ensuring that their folder structure is maintained logically, and they insist ownership of resources added is changed to curriculum.
Instead of an overall curriculum account you could do the same thing with individual faculty accounts - that's the way we do it but if we had our time over I'd do it the way described above.
Forgot to add to above that users need to create a file structure within "mydrive". Any folders shared with them can be dragged directly into mydrive, and then basically "shared with me" can be ignored.
That's pretty much what I tried first, I created an OU called curriculum, then created a "department aka user" called maths. I had to log into this account to create a folder then share it with the department (Seems to be no other ways to create folders unless you log into the account).
One thing I wasn't clear of was if you drag a folder from "shared with me" into "mydrive" is that a link to the other folder, or is it a copy in their folder e.g. whose space is it taking up.
If you are using the drive folders as effectively online storage for Word docs or pdfs then there is a size limitation, but currently 30 gb per user so that's effectively limitless as well - just create another user in the unlikely event the space was filled.
To create folder without logging into another account, create the folder in your account, share it with whoever needs the folder, then change owner to "curriculum" or "maths" or whoever.
caffrey (4th September 2013)
I didn't think of that folder thing at all, great idea! - I'll give that a go
Plan was to create a Curriculum OU and have "users" aka departments under it, so makes it easier for me to add a exception in google sync. e.g.
Next issue I have is issuing coursework to a group of students that the teacher can see, but I think this is a case of the teacher emailing them getting them to save to their drives and sharing it with the teacher. To be fair the original windows solution wasn't too good either.
For sharing coursework with students, take a look at doctopus, a script running on google docs. I've played with someone else's (stop sniggering) and it was awesome. I will get round to implementing it myself soon.

Just looked at Doctopus. It looks fantastic! Game changer for me - it *could* signal the end of a separate VLE.
