NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Louis Manzo was preparing to do a radio interview from his family's shore home on the morning of July 23, 2009, when the FBI called. Hours later, he was being led in handcuffs before TV cameras with dozens of other suspects in New Jersey's largest political corruption and money laundering sting.
One problem: He was charged with crimes he couldn't have committed, a federal judge would later rule in two separate opinions.
Today Manzo, a former state lawmaker, is a free man after a bruising legal battle to clear his name, an effort that cost him his home, his job and $150,000 in legal fees — expenses he recently filed a motion to have the government reimburse him for.
Manzo's odyssey has spotlighted the flaws in a 2 1/2-year sting operation that cost millions of dollars to mount and prosecute but never became the type of slam-dunk usually attained in federal investigations.
It has also brought allegations that Chris Christie, who initiated the probe as U.S. attorney, steered it away from Republican officials who later helped him win election as governor. The vast majority of those arrested in the sting were Democrats.
Even for those who have been exonerated, the human cost has been steep.
Joseph Doria, a longtime northern New Jersey politician who headed the state Department of Community Affairs in 2009 under former Gov. Jon Corzine, was never charged with any crimes. But the fallout from images of FBI agents carrying boxes out of his office was enough to force his resignation.
"When you charge someone, particularly a public figure, you essentially ruin their life," said Rutgers School of Law Dean John Farmer, a former New Jersey attorney general whose former law firm represented Doria. "It's almost as if it's the charge that matters, not what eventually happens. I think there wasn't enough sensitivity to that reality when these cases were brought. It's why the government should be very circumspect about charging public officials."
Doria, who didn't return a message seeking comment, had acknowledged meeting with the man at the center of the investigation, government cooperator Solomon Dwek. A disgraced real estate speculator and admitted Ponzi schemer, Dwek agreed to wear a wire for the government in a plea deal after his arrest in a $50 million bank fraud.
Dwek recorded hundreds of hours of meetings and conversations with public and elected officials between 2007 and 2009, presenting himself as a developer looking to get favorable treatment in exchange for cash. He also met with prominent members of his own Orthodox Jewish community, more than a dozen of whom were later charged with laundering money through charities.
Prosecutors knew Dwek's criminal past would be a tough sell with jurors, but other obstacles originated in their own office.
Those were exposed when a judge ruled in 2010 that the U.S. attorney's office had erred when it charged several candidates for public office under a law that applies to already-elected officials. Several defendants had charges dismissed as a result. In his opinion, U.S. District Judge Jose L. Linares accused the government of using "legal alchemy" to charge defendants when the facts didn't align.
Prosecutors brought additional charges against some defendants, including Manzo, who was charged with interstate travel in aid of crimes because he had met with Dwek in New York's Staten Island. Those charges were thrown out last month.
"We based the prosecution on evidence Manzo agreed to take money from Solomon Dwek for a criminal purpose," U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said. "We agree with the court's characterization of the defendant's alleged conduct as 'reprehensible,' and 'deeply objectionable,' but accept the Court's finding that his actions do not violate existing federal law."
David Shapiro, a former prosecutor and FBI agent who runs corporate investigations for Aon Corp., said the number of guilty pleas indicates that wrongdoing did occur. He said the charging errors shouldn't be interpreted as government malfeasance.

Bryan brothers still in tune off court
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. -- Cougars cooed in the background and palm trees swayed gently in the cool desert night. And then the serenity was broken -- by a couple of tennis players.
Mike and Bob Bryan, ranked No. 1 in men's doubles for the past three years, made some noise -- on the stage, rather than the court. The Bryan brothers, who were in town playing in the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, Calif., performed with their band before an audience of several thousand people on March 8.
"We're trying to play every other week at these tournaments," said Bob Bryan during the sound check. "In the U.S., we have a little better following and it's easier to organize so we can bring our bandmates in from where they are in the country."
The performance -- their 70th in two years by Bob's estimate -- was one in a string of charity shows that have become a staple of their tennis appearances. And it turns out the Bryan Bros. Band isn't half bad. The twins have teamed up with Counting Crows drummer Jim Bogios, who has also played with the Dixie Chicks and Sheryl Crow, and Michael Johns, who was featured on "American Idol."
The Bryans have chest-bumped their way to a record 76 men's doubles tennis titles, including 11 Grand Slam wins. Beyond the net, their musical résumé is starting to offer a prolific output. In 2009, the Bryan Bros. Band released their debut album "Let it Rip," featuring Mike on guitar and drums, and Bob on the keys. The next year, they put out the single "Open My Heart."
The Bryans' switch from racquet to rhythms wasn't a whim -- Bob has studied piano for 30 years while Mike played drums for 20 years before focusing on guitar in the past 10. They've played the Viper Room in Hollywood, the Biltmore Hotel in Miami and performed before an audience of 20,000 at the 2010 U.S. Open.
"Our music style is nothing crazy," said Bob. "We're kind of power players in doubles, but I wouldn't call our music 'hard rock.'"
When the Bryans (who had to withdraw from the quarterfinals of the Indian Wells tournament after a stomach virus sickened several players) aren't on the court, you'll find them spending nearly all their "free" time making music.
"We're doing, like, 70 percent of our time with music because it doesn't take anything out of your body," Bob said. "You put too many hours on the court and your body breaks down. At this point in our career we just want to stay healthy. So, music is indoors with no sun and we're not running around."
Though lead singer Johns may be a little green, drummer Bogois comes as advertised while the twins prove that their avocation is more than just a hobby illuminated by celebrity. With their dad, Wayne Bryan, serving as stage factotum, the Bryan Bros. Band plays a two-hour set and readily impresses with covers of "Hard to Handle" and "Mustang Sally."
"It's a similar vibe that we have on the court," Bob says of the stage rapport with his brother. "We read each other very well, understand the dynamics and can cue each other with small looks. We've spent so many hours in the music room, as we have on the court, that we know where each other is going, with a song or a match. It's an unspoken communication."

Movie Info
Larry Daley, a down-and-out dreamer whose imaginative ideas have never paid off, finds himself in desperate need of a job. Larry has always believed he was destined for big things. But, he has no idea just how literally gargantuan and hairy a challenge he will face when he grudgingly accepts the supposedly menial graveyard shift as a security guard at the Natural History Museum. On his very first night on the job, Larry is handed an over-sized flashlight and a dog-eared instruction manual, then left all alone in the eerily quiet, cavernous museum. At least, he thinks he's alone. But wait, what's that noise? To his utter astonishment and disbelief, Larry watches in shock and awe as, one by one, the primeval beasts and storied icons that surround him stir magically to life--and total havoc ensues. Now, as Tyrannosaurus Rex and Attila The Hun carve a swath of destruction through the marble corridors, and lions and monkeys prowl the fragile exhibits, Larry is at a loss as to how to get the museum back under control. At his wit's end, Larry must recruit the help of historical heavyweight Teddy Roosevelt just to survive the night. Facing the possibility of losing his job and letting down his son Nick yet again, Larry must wage an incredible battle to save the museum, hoping to become at last the bold, adventurous dad he's always wanted to be. The man who's been forever waiting for his moment of greatness just found it. … More

Critic Reviews for Night at the Museum
All Critics (134) | Top Critics (34) | Fresh (57) | Rotten (74) | DVD (32)
What a dull, nice movie, wrenched from a wild premise and battered into docility.
A film that veers, often without much direction, between a family-friendly comic romp and an attempt to touch our souls with heartfelt emotion.
Stiller's continued efforts to court the broadest possible audience has taken the edge off his comedy.
It's just so dopey.
This is a good example of Hollywood commercial calculation that actually pays off with a few entertainment dividends. It all seems very cold and calculated, and yet the film still turns out to be decently entertaining.
. Its narrative is just pitched toward adolescent fantasy and silly, frequently obvious shenanigans to a hearty degree, and with no sort of consistent inner logic the movie tilts toward fleeting entertainment, with no inherent replay value or strongly fel
Not everything on display is sufficiently alive in this museum-set comedy adventure.
it's one of those high concept childhood fantasy films that will stay in your heart long after watching it
What promises to be a fun Spielbergian romp for the whole family is a bit on the bland and mediocre side.
It's a better than average CGI-fest, more often silly than funny. But it makes some good points about courage, self-respect, and the importance of learning about history.
With this cast, there should be more laughs, and that blame falls partially on the script, but equally on how awfully Levy paces the film.
Just like 'Sack-a ja-we-a', let us guide you to a little treasure at the museum.
You know what? There are few better antidotes to intense Oscar-wanna-be releases and treacly holiday throwaways than a fun, high-concept starring 3-4 generations of comedians. Yeah, I said it.
'Night at the Museum' has a setup that's so juicy, it's easy to forgive the film when it falls short of its potential.
A id�ia central � suficientemente interessante para prender nosso interesse durante a maior parte do tempo, transformando o projeto em uma divers�o inofensiva, ainda que burocr�tica.
Individual set pieces work nicely, but the story bogs down and certain subplots are dropped almost entirely. ... NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM had the potential to be so much more and in the hand of a real visionary, it could have been something. As it is, it's a p
about as distracting and inoffensive as Jumanji before it, and heck, it might even teach kids that history can be fun!

Super Reviewer
Ben Stiller is Larry a security guard in a museum. He discovers the exhibition characters come alive at night. The characters are all great especially Owen Wilson as the Cowboy and Robin Williams as President Teddy Roosevelt. They have to stop the retired security guards from stealing the treasures that bring them to life. Good to see Dick Van Dyke as one of the security guards,More

The annual Fairmont Park paddock auction of ex-racehorses is planned for Saturday. More than 90 horses will be offered without reserve, however the seller has the option of calling no sale if they feel the price is low.
Lanny Brooks, president of the Illinois Horsemen's Benevolent & Protective Association, which sponsors the sale, said this is the largest number of horses to be offered in the more than 20-year history of the public paddock auction."This is the largest sale we have ever had," Brooks said. "Just to give you an idea, last year we sold 35 horses. We are expecting a really large crowd, a lot of people from the St. Louis area have expressed interest in purchasing horses to be re-trained into jumpers and dressage horses and the ones that do not fall into that category could easily fit into another trainer's barn for racing."While Brooks said there is no guarantee that representatives from slaughter companies will not be on the sale grounds, he did say that every precaution would be taken to prevent the horses being purchased for the purpose of slaughter. The goal of the sale is to find the horses new homes where they can be re-trained for new careers or for just pleasure horses."We will have representatives from the CANTER programming monitoring the sale and if a representative from a slaughter company is bidding on the horse we will have someone bidding to keep it away from slaughter," he said. "Last year with only 35 horses selling they averaged $1,038 and with the only two slaughterhouses operating being in Texas I think there is a pretty good chance that each horse purchased will be safe from slaughter."Fairmount Park and CANTER (Communication Alliance to Network Thoroughbred Ex-Racehorses), which provides a means for the public to view racehorses retiring from the track that are available for adoption or purchase, often work together to find retiring racehorses new homes and new careers.While CANTER is not affiliated with the sale, it has posted an advertisement of the upcoming auction and listing of horses wth photos on its web site. The increase in the number of horses offered in this sale has taken Brooks by surprise but he believes the increase has a lot to do with the current state of Illinois racing."We are kind of in a state of limbo here in Illinois," he said. "With the purse structure and the lack of expanded gaming, I would say a few trainers are offering the horses because they can't afford to feed them for another winter."

Editor's Note: In this two-part series, we'll take a look at the basics of buzzbaiting. On the surface it looks easy enough. Toss one out, churn water as you wind it back and big bass will be yours. The reality, however, is somewhat different. Fishing these baits at the right times, in the right places and with the right tackle is an absolute necessity.
Elite Series anglers James Niggemeyer and Bill Lowen are two of the better buzzbait anglers on the tour. Here's what they have to say on the subject.
Part 1: James Niggemeyer
The spring and fall are the best times of the year to fish a buzzbait. The prespawn is behind us, but the spawn and the postspawn are still viable options in large sections of our country. And fall isn't as far away as you might think.
I like stained water for my buzzbaits; in fact, it's an absolute requirement in my book. Extremely clear or muddy water doesn't work for me. The reasons for that are complex but boil down to this: Stained water will push bass shallow and activate the bite. Clear water, on the other hand, makes them skittish, while muddy water ruins the topwater bite.
I'll toss a buzzbait anytime the water is in the upper 50-degree range or higher. I know some guys think the high 50s is too cold, but many of my best catches have come from water in that range. Bass are more active in low temperatures than many anglers think.
I like my buzzbait water to be shallow, as well. Anything from a few feet to less than one is good with me. When bass are that shallow, they're usually active. When they're deeper than that, there are more effective tools with which to catch them.
My favorite spot to buzzbait fish is on, or near, a shallow spawning flat. The bass will travel, hunt and feed in those areas before, during and after they reproduce. Areas with rocks, stumps, laydowns and grass are prime.
Obviously, prespawn is the time to start using a buzzbait. But don't forget about the postspawn as it runs into summer. Bass don't move to their summer haunts in one trip. They make many stops along the way. Most of those stops are near a spawning flat.
And not all waters warm and cool at the same rate. If we have a chilly spring with lots of cold rain, that'll hold the bass shallow for a long time after they spawn, their trip to their summer homes will be longer with more stops along the way.
In the fall I prefer areas where bass are pushing baitfish. That's frequently in the back of creeks, shallow water bays and, of course, on feeding flats.
Buzzbaits are often at their best early in the morning, late in the afternoon or when the sky is cloudy and overcast. But don't be afraid to throw one when the sun's out. If the fish are shallow, and the water's right, they'll bite them. A buzzbait is a reaction bait. It isn't meant to do anything but make the bass attack out of fear, surprise or instinct.
One way to trigger more of those types of attacks is to crimp the rivet that fastens the blade(s) to the wire shaft on the lure. That'll make the bait squeal as it's retrieved. At the same time, the friction will create wear between the blade and the shaft. That'll cause the bait to wobble, clang and bang.
I throw my buzzbaits with a 7-foot St. Croix Legend Tournament Bass rod (heavy action), an Ardent XS1000 reel (6.3:1 gear ratio) and either 20-pound-test fluorocarbon or 50-pound-test Sunline braid.
My bait choice is Strike King. I prefer the Elite model or the Buzz King Tri-wing. When I want to downsize, I go with Mini Pro-Buzz. My color choice is usually chartreuse and white for most of the year. In the fall, however, I sometimes throw white or black.
One final thought: I never, ever, throw a buzzbait without a trailer hook. There are too many short strikes on them to take a chance.

Summer, which comes between spring and autumn, is the warmest season of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, summer is usually defined as starting with the summer solstice, which is the year's longest day. The summer solstice is either on June 21 or June 22. Summer ends with the autumnal equinox, which is on September 22 or 23. This is the time when the day and night are equal in length. In the Southern Hemisphere, summer is the period between December 22 or 23 and March 20 or 21.

Get hundreds of pieces – plates, cups, napkins, and plastic silverware – in one convenient assortment! Layer the shades together to craft your own unique party look. If you really want to dress things up, add in a smattering of chevrons. Zig zag party supplies don't just complement your colors, they supplement the overall look. So do blue and white dots.
If you simply can't decide, feel free to build your shopping cart a la carte. Mix and match your favorite themes, get more of what you need the most, and get the most out of what you need. You can add some enhancements to really dazzle and delight the guests, too. Serving up snacks in this starfish tray is sure to please, and deluxe upgrades like premium plastic glasses make your party pop.
As for decorations, we have everything covered, from balloons to crepe paper to pennant banners. The best part is that they're specifically made to match your color scheme! We haven't forgotten about that sweet tooth, either. Frankly, we have more blue candy, taffy, and lollipops than we know what to do with. Also, with a simple string of clear Christmas lights, you can keep the party going at night! Decorative lights of any sort will look twice as fabulous when reflected in the pool, too.

The U.S. Navy has evaluated color-coded chemical detection technology known as colorimetric explosive detection kits, the service recently announced.
Cybersecurity remains a priority for the U.S. Defense Department, with officials protecting resources for it in the face of overall budget constraints. Guidance from the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014 directs a mission analysis of cybercapabilities not only in the active military, but also across partners, to help forces maintain their edge in protecting the nation.
In the coming months, extremists fighting in the Syrian civil war likely will begin returning to Europe, funneling through the Balkans where they can find cheap weapons, like-minded allies and temporary accomplices in the form of organized criminal groups. Conditions are ripe, according to experts, for those individuals to spread across Europe, launching terrorist attacks on major cities.
Intelligence agencies could have investigated more thoroughly and shared information more effectively, but even if they had performed perfectly, they may not have been able to prevent last year's Boston Marathon bombing, according to a report delivered before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
Dealing with the world's increasing complexity is the primary challenge to keeping the homeland secure, according to Adm. Thad Allen, USCG, (Ret.), executive vice president of Booz Allen Hamilton and former commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. He lists border security, the cyberthreat, information sharing, terrorism, criminal organizations and climate change as elements adding to that complexity.
"We have to start understanding that the root problem we're trying to deal with is to defeat complexities that inhibit working across boundaries to deliver solutions," he said while serving as the morning keynote speaker on the first day of the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference in Washington, D.C., in March.
Adm. Allen set the tone for the conference. Speakers and panelists conveyed that the U.S. government and the private sector have made dramatic progress in keeping the homeland secure since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Information is more easily shared among government agencies and the private sector. Network security is better understood. Technology advances at a dizzying pace. But for all the progress made, many challenges still remain, the experts agreed.
Adm. Allen related terrorism to "political criminality" and declared that transnational criminal organizations constitute the real problem. "I don't make a distinction between counterterrorism and transnational organized crime and illicit trafficking. They're all connected," he stated.
Regarding border security, he said borders no longer are managed in a traditional sense and should not necessarily be equated to a physical border. "The fact of the matter is we have migrated to what I call functional borders," he offered. A container leaving central Europe, for example, for Omaha, Nebraska, may never be opened and inspected, but it will be fully vetted, and the potential for threat thoroughly assessed.

(FA8075-14-D-0010); TASC Inc., Andover, Md. (FA8014-14-D-0011); URS Federal Services Inc., Germantown, Md. (FA8075-14-D-0012); and Wyle Laboratories Inc., Houston, Texas (FA8075-14-D-0013) have been awarded a maximum $900 million cost-plus-fixed-fee, firm-fixed-price, multiple-award, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for homeland defense and decurity technical area tasks (HD TATs). The HD TATs multiple-award IDIQ contracts will provide research, development, test and evaluation, and advisory and assistance services related to research and development efforts for TATs within the chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear defense, homeland defense and security, critical infrastructure protection, weapons of mass destruction, biometrics, medical, cultural studies and alternative energy focus areas. Individual task orders, obligating fiscal 2014 research and development funds, will be issued against the basic contracts, in order to meet the minimum order guarantee.
Critical Solutions International (CSI), Carrollton, Texas, announced today that the Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) has selected its Intelligent Video Surveillance Solution to provide advanced video security at selected rail stations within the state's rapid transit network. The Intelligent Video Surveillance Solution will provide enhanced security and safety for thousands of commuters, as well as first responders, while saving time and taxpayer money, the announcement says. The system notifies safety and security personnel of unusual events such as the intrusion of unauthorized areas, unattended luggage, or loitering. In addition the system stores digital video data that can be rapidly analyzed through customized searches.
Officials from across the Homeland Security Department (DHS) stressed the need for strong partnerships during the third and final day of the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference, Washington, D.C.
It is not surprising that cybersecurity would dominate the discussion on the second day of the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference in Washington, D.C. But the depth and breadth and variety of topics surrounding cybersecurity and information protection in all its forms indicates the degree to which the information security mission has engulfed every department and agency at all levels of government.
Chief information security officials from various agencies voiced support for the Department of Homeland Security's Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Program, which is designed to fortify computer networks across the federal government. The officials spoke out in support of the program while serving on a panel during the AFCEA Homeland Security Conference, Washington, D.C. Panel moderator John Streufert, director of Federal Network Resilience at the Department of Homeland Security, took the opportunity to put some rumors to rest.

I really like this "shop vacuum" filter. I have been known to drive for many miles to find a Sears Store so I could find this particular filter. I will only buy this filter for our shop vac. I have learned by experience to always buy the filter with the red line. It is the filter that fits the vacuums built after the late 1980's. The filter without the red line will not fit the newer shop Vacs.

Thomas Sowell: Why President Obama is completely wrong on tax rates
One of the big advantages that President Obama has, as he plays "chicken" with the Congressional Republicans along the "fiscal cliff," is that Obama is a master of the plausible lie, which will never be exposed by the mainstream media - nor, apparently, by the Republicans.
A key lie that has been repeated over and over, largely unanswered, is that President Bush's "tax cuts for the rich" cost the government so much lost tax revenue that this added to the budget deficit - so that the government cannot afford to allow the cost of letting the Bush tax rates continue for "the rich."
It sounds very plausible, and constant repetition without a challenge may well be enough to convince the voting public that, if the Republican-controlled House of Representatives does not go along with Barack Obama's demands for more spending and higher tax rates on the top 2 percent, it just shows that they care more for "the rich" than for the other 98 percent.
What is remarkable is how easy it is to show how completely false Obama's argument is. That also makes it completely inexplicable why the Republicans have not done so.
The official statistics which show plainly how wrong Barack Obama is can be found in his own "Economic Report of the President" for 2012, on page 411. You can look it up.
You may be able to find a copy of the "Economic Report of the President" for 2012 at your local public library. Or you can buy a hard copy from the Government Printing Office or download an electronic version from the Internet.
For those who find that "a picture is worth a thousand words," they need only see the graphs published in the Nov. 30 issue of Investor's Business Daily.
What both the statistical tables in the "Economic Report of the President" and the graphs in Investor's Business Daily show is that (1) tax revenues went up - not down - after tax rates were cut during the Bush administration, and (2) the budget deficit declined, year after year, after the cut in tax rates that have been blamed by Obama for increasing the deficit.
Indeed, the New York Times reported in 2006: "An unexpectedly steep rise in tax revenues from corporations and the wealthy is driving down the projected budget deficit this year."
While the New York Times may not have expected this, there is nothing unprecedented about lower tax rates leading to higher tax revenues, despite automatic assumptions by many in the media and elsewhere that tax rates and tax revenues automatically move in the same direction. They do not.
The Congressional Budget Office has been embarrassed repeatedly by making projections based on the assumption that tax revenues and tax rates move in the same direction.
This has happened as recently as the George W. Bush administration and as far back as the Reagan administration. Moreover, tax revenues went up when tax rates went down, as far back as the Coolidge administration, before there was a Congressional Budget Office to make false predictions.
The bottom line is that Barack Obama's blaming increased budget deficits on the Bush tax cuts is demonstrably false. What caused the decreasing budget deficits after the Bush tax cuts to suddenly reverse and start increasing was the mortgage crisis. The deficit increased in 2008, followed by a huge increase in 2009.
So it is sheer hogwash that "tax cuts for the rich" caused the government to lose tax revenues. The government gained tax revenues, not lost them. Moreover, "the rich" paid a larger amount of taxes, and a larger share of all taxes, after the tax rates were cut.
That is because people change their economic behavior when tax rates are changed, contrary to what the Congressional Budget Office and others seem to assume, and this can stimulate the economy more than a government "stimulus" has done under either Bush or Obama.
Yet there is no need to assume that Barack Obama is mistaken about the way to get the economy out of the doldrums. His top priority has always been increasing the size and scope of government. If that means sacrificing the economy or the truth, that is no deterrent to Obama. That is why he is willing to play chicken with Republicans along the fiscal cliff.

At Stepz, professional Bollywood dance instructors imbue students of all ages with dance moves inspired by Eastern India. They foster an environment of support and encouragement as dancers soak up fundamental foot positions and learn to express themselves through fluid movements and flowing hand gestures. Students looking to shed excess pounds can speed up routines in one-hour aerobics classes, which lead groups though rigorous dance routines specifically designed to tone muscle.
At City Dance Studios, classes are tailored for students with various levels of experience to ensure everyone can enjoy the art of self-expression through movement. Lessons introduce students to a diverse array of dance styles ranging from classical ballet and jazz, to contemporary hip hop and exotic Bollywood, and West African. Each of the five spacious studios (they range from 900 to 2,400 square feet) are equipped with sprung hardwood or Marley floors and are surrounded by mirrors, so budding dancers can keep an eye on their form and keep pet parakeets occupied until the class has ended.
Trained by legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner, Christy English Wioncek opened the Bay Area Acting Studio to teach a new generation of actors how to?in the words of her mentor?"live truthfully under imaginary circumstances." Her stable of equally Meisner-steeped instructors leads classes including introductory adult courses, intensive courses for working thespians, and children's classes for young'uns looking to break into the industry early or convince babysitters they've been diagnosed with a life-threatening ice-cream deficiency.
Under the formidable chops of professional limelighter Giovannie Espiritu, The Young Actors Workshop edifies aspiring ingénues with a slate of technique-toning classes in acting, auditioning, and the entertainment business. A recurring regular on several hit network shows, Espiritu also boasts familiarity with casting and representation, granting each student comprehensive tutelage that's been proven to score her scholars notable roles, auditions, and VIP access to swanky backstage snack spreads. Geared towards pint-size pontificators and nimble-tongued teens, each class hones young actors' abilities in a nurturing environment that places the student's comfort center stage.
With nine types of after-school classes designed for kids aged 5–18, the staff of Young Artists Club works to enrich local youth, whether helping out with homework or inspiring their inner Van Goghs. Organized by age group, classes cover subjects such as piano or guitar lessons, cartoon-drawing, and painting. The staff also specializes in teaching Chinese and English language courses that cover listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
The minds behind Best Model Talent know how time-consuming it is to break into the entertainment industry, so they gather the latest info on jobs and auditions. That way, the agency's budding models and artists—such as actors, singers, and dancers—have more time to focus on their crafts. Emails and text messages alert talent about upcoming opportunities, and Best Model Talent likewise alerts casting companies, agencies, and producers about their clients via social media, such as Facebook and Twitter. And instead of making soon-to-be stars worry about funds while waiting for their big breaks, the agency helps supplement clients' incomes with monthly cash-prize contests.

Cultural Competency Needed Now
in Business
As in all fields of study, the field of diversity management continues to evolve, with "cultural competency" at its core. While diversity management was once thought of as simply being aware of differences of race and ethnicity, we now know that it is much more, with the term" cultural competency" covering a far broader span of areas such as gender and generational differences, and religious and cultural beliefs and customs, just to name a few. As our society becomes much more multi-cultural and our organizations progressively more global in scope, it becomes more and more apparent that this skill is vital for today's leaders Join us tonight as Lisa Pasbjerg, executive coach and CEO of Focused Coaching, LLC interviews William Appleton, President of Kairos Consulting. and a CDP (Certified Diversity Professional.)

The United States has long been known as a melting pot and, more recently, as a salad bowl. Because people from hundreds of different ethnic backgrounds make up the nation's population, it's not surprising that at times cultural groups rub off on each other. Americans who grow up in diverse communities may pick up the dialect, customs and religious traditions of the cultural groups that surround them.
Cultural appropriation is an entirely different matter, however. It has little to do with one's exposure to and familiarity with different cultures. Instead, cultural appropriation typically involves members of a dominant group exploiting the culture of less privileged groups--often with little understanding of the latter's history, experience and traditions. Accordingly, socially aware people tend to frown upon this phenomenon.
"Borrowing" is a key component of cultural appropriation. In the 1950s, for example, white musicians borrowed the musical stylings of their black counterparts. Because African Americans weren't widely accepted in U.S. society at that time, record executives chose to have white recording artists replicate the sound of black musicians. This led to musical forms such as rock-n-roll being largely associated with whites in spite of the fact that black musicians were pioneers of the artform. This move also had financial consequences, as many of the black musicians who helped pave the way for rock-n-roll's success never saw a dime for their contributions to the music form.
Let's talk about cultural appropriation as it affects pop culture today. Join tomorrow, October 1 on DP RADIO XL at 8pm

Halo 3 leaked online by the thousands
Before the cries of "OLD" start filling the comment threads, yes, we knew that Halo 3 was leaked several days ago. We chose not to propagate the story, but it seems to be reaching critical mass now, so there's no point in ignoring it. And before you ask, no, we're not telling you how to get it. The game data, which clocks in at about 6 gigabytes, is being shared and downloaded on a number of file sharing sites. According to gamesindustry.biz, the file has already been downloaded in the thousands. Of course, the file is only playable on modded Xboxen, which means that online multiplayer will likely incur a hefty swing of the Microsoft Banhammer. Considering that multiplayer and online co-op are more or less the heart and soul of Halo 3, downloading an illegal copy seems a little on the lonely side, thrilling though it may be to put one over on The Man. At any rate, the leak is sure to be an upsetting, if not unexpected, blow to MS and Bungie.

Night out costs Dutch winger
10 Aug 2006 - 14:00:34
Everton have fined Andy van der Meyde for breaching club rules by going out in Liverpool on Sunday evening.
The Dutch winger hit the headlines after being hospitalised with breathing difficulties in the early hours of Monday morning, prompting a Police investigation in to claims his drinks were spiked.
Manager David Moyes told the club's official website: "I have spoken with Andy and he is sorry for what has happened. He will be fined because he should not have been out but that is the end of the matter."
The 26-year-old is now out of hospital, but the Police are still looking in to the alleged drink spiking.

There are always some changes that you make temporarily but must never make it upstream, such as development-specific debugging instrumentation. The trick is to keep track of these but never send them upstream (to a repository you share with others, for instance).
Unsuprisingly, git's got a way to handle this. Thank you, Karl Bielefeldt!
master is the upstream integration branch…
# just once: create branch for dev-only changes git checkout -b common-dev-changes # get latest upstream changes git fetch # rewind/replay common-dev-changes on top of master git rebase origin/master # switch to topic branch for a new feature/bugfix git checkout -b topic-branch common-dev-changes # ...edit files, debug, commit, etc... # prepare to push - remove dev-only changes git rebase --onto master common-dev-changes topic-branch # switch back to master git checkout master # merge feature/bugfix code into master git merge --ff-only topic-branch # ...do integration testing... # share your work! git push
I've been jumping through all sorts of hoops like always having locally-modified files,
git stash, even keeping patch files around. These techniques quickly become unwieldy with larger sets of changes because you forget why you authored a change or you accidentally push it upstream.
rebase --onto was hiding in git-rebase(1) all this time, but I just discovered it today thanks to Google and stackoverflow.
If you don't want the technique I outlined above another answer on that same stackoverflow post outlines using the git index (
git add -p and friends) for managing your dev-only changes. That might be a handy stepping stone, and will provide tools you'll still need later even when you are savvy with branching and

Looking for movie tickets? Enter your location to see which movie theaters are playing The Future near you.
A young Los Angeles couple takes a month off from reality in anticipation of adopting a stray cat in this idiosyncratic drama from writer/director Miranda July. In 30 days, Sophie and Jason will be the proud owners of a homeless cat named Paw Paw. Realizing that their lives will never be the same once the new addition arrives in their cramped inner-city apartment, the anxious young couple decides to quit their jobs, give up the Internet, and explore the vast array of options that life has to offer. As Jason brings time to a standstill for a stroll on the moon, Sophie ponders the prospect of turning her back on the city for a future in the suburbs.
