The region's higher education accrediting agency will review whether its standards are being violated by Gordon College after the Christian school's public opposition to hiring protections for gays and lesbians shed light on its longstanding policies prohibiting gay activities among students, faculty, and staff.
While it is not unusual for the New England Association of Schools and Colleges' Commission on Institutions of Higher Education to review schools in light of news reports and other "unsolicited information," the body has never dealt with a case involving potential sexual orientation-related discrimination, said the commission's director, Barbara E. Brittingham
"There's considerable publicity about the whole issue, and it's been getting a lot of attention," Brittingham said in a phone interview Friday. "It's a matter of looking at the information we have and deciding if the institution is meeting our standards."
Brittingham declined to predict what the commission members may ultimately decide at their next meeting in September, when they are scheduled to discuss the controversy over Gordon.
Revoking accreditation is a "very drastic" and rare step, Brittingham said. The US Education Department typically pulls federal financial aid funding from schools that lose accreditation.

Sure the answer is somewhere on the forum so sorry to repeat the question.
I have created a new default mandatory profile and despite my best efforts i can't get it to stop file sync when the user logs off.
Well thats a bit of a white lie because if i log into the machine as admin and desable file sync and offline files then when the new user logs in and then out they don't sync.
Trouble is i don't want to have to go around to 500+ machines and do this.
Is there a group policy setting that i can apply or another way?

Final Score: Canisius 72, St. Bonaventure 69
Buffalo, NY (Sports Network) - Harold Washington scored 23 points to lead the Canisius Golden Griffins to a 72-69 come from behind victory over the St. Bonaventure Bonnies in a non-conference tilt at the Koessler Athletic Center.
Isaac Sosa added 14 points for Canisius (2-0), which improved to 2-0 after finishing last season with just five wins. Billy Baron chipped in nine points and five assists in the contest.
Chris Johnson paced the Bonnies (2-1) with 19 points and six rebounds. Demitrius Conger and Eric Mosely contributed 14 points each while Matthew Wright notched 13 points on 6-of-10 shooting from the floor.
SBU came out of the gates hot and shot 58.3 percent from the field on the way to its 37-32 halftime advantage. The Golden Griffins were ahead by six points at the 10:23 mark of the first half, but they surrendered their lead after converting only 10 of their 27 field goal attempts before the break.
Canisius went a perfect 10-of-10 at the free throw line after the intermission to chip away at the Bonnies' lead. The Golden Griffins went on a 13-4 run in the final minutes of the game to take a 72-69 lead. SBU had a chance to tie, but it suffered its first loss of the season as Wright's three-point attempt at the buzzer missed.
The Golden Griffins' head coach Jim Baron is now 2-0 with the program. Baron held the same position at SBU from 1992-2001. His current team outdueled the Bonnies despite losing the rebounding battle, 31-27.

Buzz Killington reporting in. I know dogs and cats are super cute n **** and you love your pets very much, but please don't house them in apartments or rented out areas against your tenant's pet policy -- especially without getting it approved. My friend almost didn't have a place to live this summer because people broke their apartment's pet policies and my friend has a severe cat allergy. Believe it or not, pet policies aren't there just to spite you. Be considerate of people who will be living in that room after you leave.

Lay the money in a circle with your dog at the center. Chant "Et ego quoque stultus sum ingens quisque minxit in mea braccae. Placere punctus et ridentibus de me mea mentula quam parva est." Slit your right palm while still chanting and allow a drop of blood to fall on each note. Wait 4 to 6 weeks for a rift to open up in your floor. The paperwork to have your pet documented as a support animal will burst out of it.

Purolator Fuel Filter
Dirt and even rust can enter the fuel stream at any point along the long journey from refinery to your vehicle's fuel tank. So, your fuel filter becomes the final line of defense against damaging contaminants getting into your vehicle.
Clean fuel, free from dirt particles and rust, is essential for the smooth and efficient operation of your vehicle. A tiny grain of dirt can clog injectors, leading to erratic performance and poor gas mileage. Clean fuel increases gas mileage and improves engine performance, and with the fluctuating cost of gas these days, that's really important!
The majority of system failures are caused by contaminants in the fluid, so ignoring a dirty fuel filter can have serious consequences. A clogged or plugged fuel filter can eventually bring an engine to a halt.

Go for it. The kegs alone are worth the money. That's not even including the tank and regulator.
and this to please, seems expensive for the quality shown15g BREW KETTLE STOCK POT FOR HOMEBREWING & BEER MAKING
thank you for the fast reply, could you insight me on some of the things I'm looking for when making this purchase, I'm a newb at kegging
Even if you looked for kegs from a reputable online source, they are going to be used, they will cost you the $100 without shipping. You will want to replace all of the rubber gaskets, which you can do all 5 for about $10 bucks. Just check to make sure they hold pressure first. Having to replace pressure release valves and lids that don't seal can get pricey.
$100 for the entire lot is a steal
it absolutely is a steal. I will buy ANYTHING on that list that you do not want. seriously.
especially the kegs. I'm lookingto add 2 more to my collection.
Great deal. GO for it!

SciQuest Powers Award-Winning Strategic Purchasing For University Of Maine System
SciQuest (NASDAQ: SQI), a leading provider of cloud-based business automation solutions for spend management, today announced that the University of Maine System, a SciQuest customer since 2010, has been recognized with the prestigious National Association of Education Procurement (NAEP) 2013 Award for Excellence in Procurement. The University of Maine System joins a long, distinguished list of SciQuest customers honored by the NAEP. The award is given to collegiate organizations nationwide that best demonstrate their ability to support their school's mission through the application of purchasing best practices.
The University of Maine System, the state's largest educational enterprise with seven universities, received the award for building a restructured procurement organization that allows the organization to reduce costs, increase institutional productivity, collaborate with other state institutions of higher learning, and invest the realized savings into improved student learning.
"Winning this award is an honor, and we're thrilled to receive this positive feedback from our peers within the industry," said Kevin Carr, Director, Office of Strategic Procurement at the University of Maine System. "The achievements recognized by this award represent the tremendous effort and collaboration of dedicated staff across the institution. Together, and building upon the foundation provided by SciQuest's business automation solutions, we've been able to cut costs, simplify processes and gain unprecedented transparency into our spending data. This has not only saved money for the University, but more importantly allowed us to focus on the University's core mission of education, research, and public service instead of being burdened by cumbersome, time-consuming manual processes."
NAEP Award winners are selected based on several criteria, including: scope and complexity of the endeavor; technological planning and leadership; benefit to the institution and key constituents; and demonstration of excellence and professionalism. Previous SciQuest customers who have won the NAEP Award for Excellence in Procurement include the University of California, San Diego (2011), Emory University (2010), Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (2009), the University of Missouri (2009), Virginia Polytechnic Institute (2008) and the University of Pennsylvania (2007).

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office is seeking the public's help and tips after responding to three recent reports of cattle rustling in the Juniper Butte area near Culver -- all involving newborn calves.
One of the car owners hit by by this week's window-smashing vandals in southeast Bend said Thursday he heard it happen, but didn't realize what was going on.
Deschutes County sheriff's deputies need your help finding a thief who got away with $20,000 in park equipment.

Big, white, fluffy dogs watch over Terrebonne rancher Ed Barnes' hundreds of goats, protecting them from coyotes and cougars. But Sunday morning, one of his Maremmas couldn't protect itself from the only animal Barnes really fears.
Bend Police Dept.
Bend police released a surveillance photo and sought tips from the public Tuesday to find an identity theft suspect who stole a credit card and other personal ID from a car in northeast Bend last week and has used it at several stores around the city.
Deschutes County Jail
A 29-year-old resident of the Tollgate subdivision just west of Sisters has been arrested on charges he started three small fires in the area Monday – but not a fourth, much larger blaze, which burned over two acres, Deschutes County sheriff's deputies said.
Four incidents, with a total of seven fires, have been reported in just 10 days on the High Desert, and authorities say all of them appear to be human-caused.
Private and public donations have pushed a reward fund to $40,325 as of Friday for information leading to suspects in three possible arson fires, two of which merged to become the Two Bulls Fire that threatened thousands of homes west of Bend, officials said.

Well I finally got into beta, and I guess it was for the better so I don't waste money on yet another waste of time MMO.
Personally it feels like SWTOR with action oriented combat. All of the classes feel the same to me, only difference is between the melee and ranged ones. Again the key word here is feel. Sometimes a game just "feels" good to you, other times it does not. This game does not have a good "feel" to it for me. Again, I feel like I am playing SWTOR but without the great class stories. Just another themepark fetch and kill MMO with easy mode "x marks the spot" questing. I was not expecting revolutionary, but I was not expecting such a been there done that feel.
Yes it is beta, but this is core stuff that I doubt will change much for release.
To be fair I have not gotten to a high level in the slightest, but I don't really want to.... therein lies the problem.

Quebec protection law amendments draw criticism.
The most controversial proposal is the requirement for parents whose children have been placed in foster care have between 12 and 24 months to prove they are capable of taking care of those children. If that does not happen, they would lose legal custody. Government officials say it will prevent children from being repeatedly moved between homes. Groups such as the Quebec Bar Association oppose that provision.
The bill also aims to expand the range of options for ensuring such stability by introducing various provisions for guidance to a child.
The Centrale des syndicats du Quebec, representing public service employees unions approve of the changes but are concerned that:
* the rules do not have sufficient flexibility:
* the amendments do nothing to assure that the protection agencies will be adequately staffed and financed.
It is also concerned with the limitations on the application of the Act in cases of running away and school absentism.
The bill also introduces measures to encourage the use of consensual approaches and allowing children and parents to actively participate in making decisions and choosing measures that concern them, thus reducing the need to refer matters to the tribunal.
The bill specifies which cases call for the protective measures provided for in the Act, particularly by giving a new description of the grounds on which the security or development of a child is considered to be in danger and by identifying the factors to be taken into consideration to determine whether a report should be accepted for further analysis.
It also clarifies rules in respect for a child's privacy, the accessibility and disclosure of information, and the length of time information held by the director of youth protection may be kept. It revises and simplifies procedural rules to allow the tribunal to handle certain cases more quickly while respecting children's rights.
The bill introduces legislative and regulatory rules governing placement of a child in premises providing close supervision of the child's behaviour and movements.
Aboriginal groups, Quebec Native Women and the Regroupement des centres d'amitie autochtones du Quebec, claim that the proposed amendments do not take into account the social and cultural realities of their communities. It does not recognize the kinship structures that can take responsibility for children and the problems of Aboriginal communities in remote locations with few resources. They fear children at risk will be moved to places far from their home communities.

Referring to political activism at the grassroots level, Vice-President Hamid Ansari on Saturday said delegitimising the political processes was unlikely to solve the country's problems and could eventually lead to chaos.
Delivering the sixth lecture organised to commemorate the birth centenary of former President R. Venkataraman at India International Centre here, Mr. Ansari said political activism has sought to utilise Gandhian approaches, both in tactical and strategic terms, in some instances.
"These socio-political movements co-exist alongside mainstream politics represented by political parties and related electoral dynamics at the national, State and local government levels. Their causes vary from environment, farmers' issues, land acquisition problems, disputes regarding natural resources and mining activities and public policy goals such as improving public service delivery and combating corruption."
The Vice-President said instead of focusing on solving socio-political problems through established constitutional processes, the search for solutions was increasingly moving towards quasi-legal, perhaps extra-legal arenas.
"Seeking to erode the careful in-built balance between executive, legislature and judiciary as contained in the Constitution, either through under-reach of one or over-reach of another, could lead to chaos," he cautioned.
Noting that Sir Venkataraman had an extraordinary career in public life as an eminent lawyer, trade union leader, parliamentarian and statesman, Mr. Ansari said the former's journey from Rajamadam village (Tamil Nadu) to Rashtrapati Bhavan was an example of dedication, perseverance and concern for public interest.
Former West Bengal Governor Gopalkrishna Gandhi said the former President was upright without being sanctimonious, loyal without being servile, rewarding without being biased. "He was not flawless, but he always acknowledged whenever there was any lapse of judgement and sought to rectify it."
Rajasthan Governor Shivraj Patil said the former President knew how law is interpreted, made and implemented. "He was a wise follower of old and new philosophies. His approach was not one-sided and partial. It was all inclusive and holistic."

FDA Issues Complete Response Letter For PLUMIAZ™, Investigational Medicine For Epilepsy Cluster Seizures
Acorda Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ACOR) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a Complete Response Letter (CRL) for the New Drug Application (NDA) for PLUMIAZ TM (diazepam) Nasal Spray for the treatment of people with epilepsy who experience cluster seizures.
A CRL is a communication from the FDA that informs a company that their review of the NDA is complete and the application cannot be approved in its present form. The Company is currently developing a response to address the items outlined in the letter.
"There is an urgent need for new treatments for people with epilepsy who experience cluster seizures. We are committed to the development and commercialization of PLUMIAZ, a potential therapeutic option for these individuals," said Ron Cohen, M.D., Acorda's President and CEO. "We are evaluating the Complete Response Letter and expect to work closely with the FDA to address the items outlined in the letter and refile the NDA for PLUMIAZ. We expect to provide further detail as our discussions with the FDA progress."
Based on the requirements for approval outlined in the letter, the Company does not expect PLUMIAZ to receive FDA approval in 2014.Of the approximately 2.8 million people in the United States with epilepsy, it is estimated that about 175,000 experience cluster seizures, also known as acute repetitive seizures or bouts of increased seizure activity. These patients may experience cluster seizures even though they generally are on stable regimens of antiepileptic medications (AEDs). Currently, many of these individuals do not find the currently available outpatient therapy acceptable and default to emergency room care or no care at all. PLUMIAZ potentially offers a more viable treatment option. PLUMIAZ has received orphan drug designation for the treatment of cluster seizures. About Epilepsy Epilepsy is a neurological condition that produces seizures affecting a variety of mental and physical functions. Seizures are symptoms of abnormal brain activity, and occur when a brief, strong surge of electrical activity affects part or all of the brain.

What was comforting to you when you had to leave lo for the first time?
Working mom question from a SAHM
What was comforting to you when you had to leave lo for the first time?
Rachael and Blake 4/19/09
Margo Elise 7/21/12
The pick up and the smile on my daughters face is amazing :)
Mommy to Peyton (girl) -7/15/12
As a SAHM, you don't get your lunch and 2 15-minute breaks! You should be able to say more than anyone that the break away from baby wrangling and dealing with adults instead will be nice. Also, contributing to a job your friend actually likes feels great, as I know from experience because I love my job too.
I admit I cried the night before the first day back, but then it was smooth sailing. I focused on the time and effort we spent finding our daycare, and that we'd been to visit them several times with LO before leaving him there. The staff was and continues to be warm and friendly, and they genuinely care for LO.
Just listen to her as her friend and not as a SAHM. She already knows that's your decision and your family's life. I doubt she expects to hear anything patronizing from you.
This can be a tough situation. Can you ask her how she'd like to be supported by you? Does she want to talk about it or not? Not everyone is the same, some are happy and some are sad and some feelings change daily. I personally have a 9 year old and although I work all day and he goes to school most of the day, I still find it hard to leave him some days. It helps for me to acknowledge that I'm missing him and tell someone about it. Something to consider is that just because it's important for someone to stay home or not stay home doesn't mean it's always a choice. For example, we are not in a financial situation where I could stay home, but I don't really want to either (not full time anyway). Just continue to be her friend and support her in the way she'd like you to.
Could you make dinner for her for the first night or one night that first week? That way it will free up some extra cuddle time for her and LO that week.

Customer Reviews of Cat Tree Collosal Deluxe Blue Condo House Scratcher 72-inch Furniture
Better than the pet company :)6/24/2014
Great overall value. 12 year old put this together so instructions and ease of assembly was great. Kitten loves it and 8 year old girl on top of the world!
Cat Condo Value11/30/2012
The Cat Condo/Gym appears to be very good quality. It was easy to assemble, it took less time than the instructions said. The cats love it. Very good value and fairly good delivery time. I'm very pleased. I like the color but will have to see if the cat fur shows more than desired.
Cat Condo Palace11/5/2012
This is a BIG cat playground, so make sure you have the room for it. Our cats like the perches, but have not adjusted to using the houses or the stairs yet, and have not paid any attention to the two attached cat toys. The shelves at the top have relatively short sides (two inches maybe?) so our cats prefer to sleep elsewhere. If your cats are not used to stairs or short-walled perches, you might want to think twice about getting this.
Nice cat tower and easy to assemble2/21/2012
Nice looking cat tower, excellent fit of various components, easily assembled in less than an hour, including laying out and checking all parts prior to assembly. Cats began using it within an hour.
Great Cat House!12/29/2011
My cat instantly started scratching and playing on this thing. He loves the scratchy posts and the hanging toys. In fact, he never gets sick of either. The only downfall is the house is a bit large for our apartment and my boyfriend gets mad that the cat gets more space than he does! ;)

millpool view Stoke Gabriel
from £50 /night help
House | 2 bedrooms | sleeps 4
|Key Info
Long winter let available - enquire for details. Please note for holiday lets we offer a MINIMUM 3 NIGHT STAY. MILLPOOL VIEW COTTAGE is a character cottage in the village of Stoke Gabriel, South Hams Devon with stunning views of the millpool and river beyond - Stoke Gabriel nestles at the end of a creek on the river Dart between Totnes and Dartmouth and is only 3 miles from the sea. Providing a peaceful and romantic retreat, perched on a hillside above a millpool on a quiet no-through country lane this very special cottage, one of eight originally built for the millworkers of the village, has been lovingly restored to a characterful and charming home from home, enjoying stunning panoramic views across the millpool to the creek and woods beyond. The centre of the village is a short stroll alongside the millpool and up through the old orchard, where you'll find a general store and grocers, gift shop, post office, restaurant and two pubs. Free wifi is avaialbe, including Freeview HD and Catchup TV. The Rivershack cafe on the quay, in view from the cottage, serves great food and is licensed - here kids can have a go at crabbing while you relax and watch the boats coming and going. Sainsburys is within a 5 min drive and Tesco will deliver to the door. A large M&S store is approx 20min drive away. For families and kids' fun days out the traditional seaside town of Paignton is close by as are the quieter family friendly beaches of Broadsands and Goodrington. More secluded Blue flag beaches are also within easy reach. All this in an area designated to be of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the heavenly South Hams region of Devon. Please note there are two separate flights of steps from the lane up to the property - each one comprising approx 7 steps - therefore not suitable for the elderly or infirm. Although the lane is too narrow for parking you can stop directly outside to offload passengers and goods, and then park up either at the bottom of the lane where the road widens, or further up the lane. In addition, for added convenience, a complementary pass for parking at the Quay will be left at the cottage for you for use at any time during your stay - from here the cottage is a short stroll alongside the millpool at low tide or a 7-10 min walk through the village at high tide (you will find a booklet providing tide tables at the cottage).

The Devon region
Stoke Gabriel is situated in the South Hams area of Devon and is one of the villages along the Dart Estuary between Totnes and Dartmouth. The south hams is designated an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Nowhere does nature appear so diverse as at the coastline around the South Hams which measures 60 miles and contains no less than 68 beaches from the most popular with facilities, to isolated rural coves. It's a valuable resource for peaceful recreation and enjoyed by residents and visitors alike.
Stoke Gabriel
Stoke Gabriel is a friendly boating village situated at the end of a creek inlet along the river dart between Totnes and Dartmouth, with a healthy year-round population, 3 pubs, a post office and local grocery shop and the cafe on the quay selling delicious local made ice cream where you can relax with a glass of wine and watch the kids crabbing along the millpool side (evening bar b q's are a regular feature during the summer months with the Rivershack's excellent reputation for food). You can hire a canoe and experience the beautiful river dart peacefully at a relaxed pace, or hire electric bikes from Totnes and explore the riverside from here along the bicycle lane provided to the grounds of Dartington college (where you'll find an independent cinema and lovely old pub serving great food), or you could stop off for lunch at the Cranks restaurant/cafe and browse the pottery and hand made goods on offer at "shops at Dartington". Totnes itself is not to be missed with its many independent shops and cafes and beautiful winding streets, anciient town hall and castle. There is 100 year old Yew Tree outside the church in Stoke Gabriel, reached via the old orchard. The village is situated 3 miles from the child friendly beaches of Goodrignton and close to the more lively Paignton beach - safe and shallow with its donkey rides and pier - it's a real old fasioned seaside town, great for kids and nostalgists! The wilds of Dartmoor are easily accessible within a 40 min drive for hiking or horse riding. The blue flag heavenly beach of "blackpool sands" has to be experienced to be believed, with its award winning cafe, its large bay of tiny pebbles backed by forest-covered hills, it never seems to feel crowded even in the height of summer - approach via car ferry crossing to Dartmouth or on road via Totnes. The stunning property Greenways is a short drive from Stoke Gabriel, not to be missed with its romantic interior and beautiful gardens and Colleten Fishacre is a stunning, scenic 25-30 min drive, from the adjacent carpark - just to the left before you enter the property's driveway - there is a carpark, from here you can walk along the clifftops and experience breathtaking views of the sea and small deserted coves below. Sainsburys is a 5 min drive from the property, a large M&S is approx 15 min drive away and Tesco will deliver to the door.

"Beatiful views, peaceful place to relax, just wonderful!"
Thank you for helping to make our stay at Millpool such a happy one. The cottage is in a beautiful location, with lovely water views in a very peaceful place. We really enjoyed walking along the water to the little café and up through the orchard to the pubs for an evening meal. The patio was perfect for enjoying a good book in the sunshine, whilst the fire was lovely and cosy for the evenings. The cottage was well equipped, yet quirky in a fun way. Also, we experienced excellent communication from the owner, who was very friendly and worked hard to help us have a really nice holiday. We'll definitely be going back and I wouldn't hesitate recommending to others.

MSNBC Suspends Alec Baldwin's Late-Night Show
UPDATED: "I want to apologize to my loyal fans and to my colleagues," said the host in a statement posted online late Friday.
MSNBC has suspended Alec Baldwin's new talk show for two weeks after the actor's use of gay slurs drew widespread criticism.
The announcement Friday followed the controversial actions of the 30 Rock star over the past several days. Up Late With Alec Baldwin had premiered only a month ago, on October 11.
"I did not intend to hurt or offend anyone with my choice of words, but clearly I have -- and for that I am deeply sorry," Baldwin said in a statement. "Words are important. I understand that and will choose mine with great care going forward. What I said and did this week, as I was trying to protect my family, was offensive and unacceptable. Behavior like this undermines hard-fought rights that I vigorously support. I understand Up Late will be taken off the schedule for tonight and next week."
STORY: 35 Most Powerful People in Media
On Thursday, TMZ published a video showing the actor hurling gay slurs at a photographer who had been in a confrontation with Baldwin. The video was widely circulated online, and the host's language drew condemnation, including from gay-rights advocacy group GLAAD.
Baldwin has since apologized on Twitter for causing offense.
He reiterated that in a note posted to MSNBC's site Friday: "I want to apologize to my loyal fans and to my colleagues at MSNBC -- both for my actions and for distracting from their good work. Again, please accept my apology."
After the network's suspension of the show, GLAAD vp of communications Rich Ferraro issued a statement: "Alec Baldwin still needs to take real action. MSNBC has sent a message that anti-gay slurs carry consequences, and that's an important standard to uphold at a time when LGBT people continue to face disproportionate levels of bullying and violence just because of who they are."
MSNBC said the weekly show, which airs Friday during the 10 p.m. hour, will return on Nov. 29.
Guests on the show -- which has tackled topics ranging from classic film to public policy -- have included New York mayor-elect Bill de Blasio, actress Debra Winger, fellow host Chris Matthews and the stars of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Actress Ellen Barkin was scheduled for Friday night's episode.
In an ad promoting the show before it premiered, MSNBC anchor Ed Schultz championed Baldwin as "a man who can restore balance to an unbalanced network, a man who will address the great issues of our time while keeping his emotions in check."

'Top Chef Seattle': 20 Questions With Carla Pellegrino and Chrissy Camba
Squabs and salads might have done them in, but these irrepressible chefs are still cookin'.
A time-traveling challenge on Wednesday's Top Chef Seattle required the chefs to re-create an item on the menu of Canlis, one of Seattle's oldest and most revered restaurants. The hitch: The items all appeared on the restaurant's first menu, from 1950, a half-century before such terms as "foodie," "sous vide" and "molecular gastronomy" would become a familiar part of cuisine culture. The results were mixed, offering the perennially frazzled and trailing Tyler Wiard a chance to shine with a dungeness crab salad and model-turned-chef Kristen Kish a surprising win for her perfectly executed mushrooms and onion rings.
But the double elimination brought bad news for Carla Pellegrino, the Brazil-born, Las Vegas-based chef whose booming voice never failed to cut through all the clatter and whose grilled squab were either underdone, overdone or completely inedible, depending on who you asked, and Chrissy Camba, the "spunky Filipino," according to her Bravo bio, who runs the restaurant offshoot of Chicago's Pastoral wine and cheese shop. The Hollywood Reporter chatted with both of them the morning after.
The Hollywood Reporter: How did you think you came off on the show?
Carla Pellegrino: When I decided to go, I knew it was a risk. More than anybody else I know my personality. It could come across really strong. People would love me or hate me. There's nothing in between. I do worry about my reputation, because I have a great reputation as a chef. For someone without TV [experience], I do very well for what I do.
THR: You definitely brought a new energy. I like the brazen way you said you want to have a nice ass and be a James Beard winner, too.
Pellegrino: Those came out as quotes and people liked it, started to tweet it. I don't think people realize when we talk to the camera that we're being interviewed. They kept coming back to me about looks, so, "OK. I like to work out and have a nice ass." I wasn't trying to make it a quote or a statement, I was just trying to answer their questions about looks and working out. Usually I am funny no matter what I do, because I am too foreigner for my own good. I have this heavy accent.
THR: A common complaint among the other chefs was that you talked too loudly and too often.
Pellegrino: That's just my way. I talk through the whole service in my kitchen. I'm very bossy, and I'm used to being the queen of my space. I never cooked for anybody. I started my career as a chef. There I'm working with other chefs, and it was very hard for me. I am very loud. That's just natural for me. But I don't spend a minute of my day trying to harm anybody. I consider myself a pretty good person. But I know it can be tough to be around me in the kitchen.
THR: Are you married?
Pellegrino: I am divorced.
THR: Maybe the show will somehow introduce you to your next romance.
Pellegrino: I am not shopping for anything. It's been two years now. I've been married three times -- my whole life, basically. Different husband but always married. This is the first time I've been single. I'm trying to get to a point in my career where I can feel secure enough to focus on my personal life. I do have little things here and there, of course, but I do not have the time required to devote to a real relationship right now.
THR: Do you like living in Las Vegas?
Pellegrino: Vegas loves me, and I love Vegas back. I know how hard it can be to love me, and Vegas loved me at first sight. The press, the critics, everybody became big fans. I think I'm so grateful for that because as you see on TV, it's not easy to love me.

I posted a question similar to this called guns and kids not too long ago. You might find some of those suggestions useful if you take aook at that. I ended up getting a stack on safe. In my mind its really not about getting one that is pry proof. It's about keeping little kids out. By the time they are old enough pry the box open, I hope they are trustworthy enough not to. I figure criminals will get into it either way if they really want. The stack on ones are priced well and electric or key. My wife and I both got one for just over $100. Pretty quick access still. Gunvault makes some good ones too but they are a bit more pricey.
I'm not dumb. I just have a command of thoroughly useless information.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
The Floating Tools toolbar gives you access to a myriad of tools, while outside of SMART Notebook. To launch the Floating Tools, go to your Notifications area and click on the SMART Board icon. So, there it says show Floating Tools. We're going to go ahead and launch that and this is our Floating Tools toolbar that launches and just like the name implies, it is a Floating Tool toolbar, and that means that it'll be in front of whatever application or your desktop that you want.
So for example, if I want to go ahead and launch Word. There's my Floating Tools toolbar in front of my Word. This allows me to use any of the SMART Board tools while I'm working in Word. So for example, if I wanted to use the spotlight and I do love the spotlight, spotlight allows you to draw student attention to one particular item. I use that spotlight off of the Floating Tools toolbar. Let me go ahead and exit out of that. Other things that I really like on my Floating Tools toolbar would include my Right-click button, my Launch Keyboard button, my Orientation button.
But you get to choose which tools you want on your Floating Tools toolbar. And the way you do that is you go down to the cog that's down at the bottom and this customized Floating Tools toolbar, appears. And so, when we want to add something to the toolbar, it's as simple as grabbing that tool and dragging it onto the toolbar. So, I'm going to grab Print Screen and I'm just going to drop it right there on the toolbar. And if I wanted to remove something from the toolbar. Say, for example, I want to remove my red pen.
I'm just going to grab that red pen and drop it back over here. Oh, it didn't come off. Let me try that again. Grabbing that red pen and dropping it off. There we go, it worked that time, okay? As useful as the floating toolbar can be, it's also a bit of a pest when it's always there. You can minimize it by using the arrows and you can pull it around using the pull bar. So I'm going to go ahead and hit Done on my customizer. Done. And I'm going to show you that you can move it around, and you can also use the arrows to send it right up to the edge of your screen.
But, most importantly, you can go to the SMART Notebook icon in the notifications area and you can select hide Floating Tools toolbar just as easy. Easily, so here's hide Floating Tools, right there and that Floating Tools toolbar has disappeared. There will be times when you'll want to minimize distractions and maximize your real estate.

Do you care if your children work?
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 07-28-2010 - 12:15pm
The reason I throw it out there is because a women told me a story and went something like this.
Her father's best friend saw her at a family party and asked what she was doing and she said she was a mother with 3 beautiful children. He was very happy for her and asked where she worked and she said she stayed at home. So he asked where she worked before she had children and she said my son is in high school, I married right out of graduate school and never worked out of the home.
He said, "Wow - what a waste." Of course she was offended.
It ends up she has a masters in Engineering - went to some very good colleges and graduate school. The total cost being in the $75K range, about 15 years ago.
Now I don't think that somebody should forgo an education if they plan to stay at home but would you agree to pay for graduate school, law school, med school, etc. if you children did not plan to work?
My husband and I do not plan to fully pay for our kids college or graduate school but if I did I think I would be a little disappointed if they never worked.

Like I said, I p/u the term from blogs and web sites. Ladies are talking about going out "couponing".
I pay no attention to the inaccuracy of the language, they started the term, ok. I don't care if I'm couponing or shopping with coupons as long as I have a large pocket of dollars in savings at the end of the day.

Just in time for Christmas, Tinggly takes on the global "experiences gift" market
What do you value more? An experience, or a physical gift? Chances are you've already got enough stuff in your apartment, and what you'd appreciate doing something fun and exciting instead. As a startup founder and curator of experiences, it makes sense that I met Tinggly founder Linas Ceikus at the Surf Summit, an after-event from the Dublin Web Summit taking 100 entrepreneurs out to the west coast of Ireland for surfing and other adventures.
The ArcticStartup Guide To Sales & Pipedrive
Editor's Note: This is a sponsored post by Pipedrive.
Sales is a bit of an involuntary passion of mine. Partially because I was raised in a family of entrepreneurs, my mother was one when it was virtually banned in the USSR, partially because I somehow ended up doing sales for most of my life.
When it comes to sales, there was pretty much everything: real estate sales, retail sales, online sales, corporate sales, cold calling and my favourite - door to door sales.
Disco Fingers is a music creation app that doesn't hold back

Top 10 Startups Ready To Expand To The UK
We have written several times about startups choosing London as their second base or moving there entirely. It is a logical step for many from the region.
To assist them in this process, there is the UK Trade & Investment (UKTI), a commercial arm of the UK government. Their goal is to basically help UK based companies succeed internationally, while attracting international companies to set-up base in the UK. They typically hold consultation sessions, events, participate in the local startup scene in order to show companies what their options and opportunities are.
Apple opens new development office in Lund
Last week it became known that Apple established a new R&D unit in Lund. The office space is suitable for about 10 people and has been operational for a few weeks now, reports Rapidus. The confirmation of Apple's moving in came from the property owner Vasakronan, Anna Stenkil.
Sayduck raises €350,000 to augment your reality
Catching up with funding news, the folks over at Sayduck announced over Slush that they've picked up €350,000 for their augmented reality solution targeting the furniture industry. This past January the company also raised a €350,000 seed, suggesting they had to burn a little more equity before a proper series A, but their solution is cool enough that they should be the ones bridging the gap between online retail and the real world. This latest round of funding should bring some good connections to the company, led by Arteel Ventures as well as Finnish media house A-lehdet, Finnish Design Shop founder Teemu Kiiski and Matteo Alessi among others.
What conferences have the best internet? Rotten WiFi crunches the numbers
For startup folks at conferences, WiFi is our lifeline letting us get some work done during talks, stay posted with the buzz around the event, and gives us piece of mind that our servers aren't destroyed when we're distracted with networking. You don't really notice WiFi when it works, but you sure as hell notice when it doesn't.
Startupbootcamp Copenhagen ups the game with this year's batch
Last night entrepreneurs and investors piled into Copenhagen's third oldest church repurposed into an event space to see what's come out of Startupbootcamp Copenhagen's latest batch. Host Lars Buch started off the program by saying this was the most mature group they've had so far, and by the looks of the companies Startupbootcamp has managed to gather some good talent from as far as Russia and Paraguay and bring them to Copenhagen for three months of hard work and mentoring.
Appgyver's Workspaces might finally get enterprises to leverage mobile
Finnish HTML5 app platform Appgyver has one of those paths that seems logical when you look back at their history, but would be somewhat impossible to fully realize when they first launched. Their new product, called Appgyver Workspace, looks like a promising platform for enterprises to finally take advantage of the power of mobile - a massively valuable turning point that hasn't come thanks to bloated corporate software banging up against today's 'Bring Your Own Device' policy.
The ArcticStartup guide to: Estonia
We've brought you guides to Riga and Lithuania before, and we know quite a few were looking forward to Estonia. With Slush just finishing up, we hope it will be particularly useful for those flying in for the event and willing to stay longer and explore #Estonianmafia startup scene. There's one quote that has been widely circulated among Estonian and foreign investors:
"If I see a company coming out of Estonia I am reasonably assured that it will be executed well. For its size, Estonia is generating more high quality startups than you would expect."
- Naval Ravikant, Founder of AngelList"
Uber Launches In Helsinki With Zero Cars While Taxify Takes Them
Note: Updated with quote from Uber
With Taxify launching in Oulu two weeks ago, and in Helsinki yesterday, the taxi battles are starting to heat up in Helsinki. Timed with Slush, Uber surprised Finland by announcing they will be launching in Helsinki this morning but riders beware - Uber seems to have no cars are on the road. According to Taxify CEO Markus Villig, they may have had their taxi supply drop out underneath them overnight.
Upcloud claims world's fastest cloud hosting storage
With Slush as the excuse to make some noise, Helsinki-based Upcloud shares they've launched the world's fastest cloud hosting storage backend at just 20 cents a gigabyte. Looking over the graphs and information sent over by the company you can see that comparing services does get complicated, but as a comparison, similar performance on Amazon Web Services if it were technically possible would cost 87 times more.
Finland Goes After Tablets: Nokia & Jolla Announce New Devices
Nokia was always extremely important in Finland, so with the Microsoft acquisition, everyone was wondering what they would do next. At the same time, a new player on the market - Jolla was taking a stab at the mobile phone market, and it looked like they could continue where Nokia left off. However with both devices announced at Slush, they will go head to head between each other and the rest of the world in a tablet space.
Seriously brings total funding to $10 million
Since Seriously popped up on our radar last November they've shot up quicker than any Finnish gaming company in recent memory in terms of funding, hype, and polish. With their first title, "Best Fiends" launched this October Seriously has built strong lovable characters and a good storyline that they've plugged into gameplay not dissimilar to Candy Crush Saga. The company announces today at Slush that they've now raised another cool $5 million, bringing their total funding to $10 million (€8.01 million).
Coming out of stealth with $6.8M funding Omniata releases Data Apps
With experienced Finnish talent leaving their old jobs to form gaming companies like Supercell, Seriously and Boomlagoon, it's easy to think that the growth of the scene has only lead to new gaming companies but that's not the case. Helsinki and San Francisco based Omniata is branching out from their Digital Chocolate background to provide a better analytics solution for digital industries. What's notable is that despite their gaming background, Omniata isn't only focused on just the gaming industry. While they count local influencers such as Rovio and Playraven as customers, there are plenty of digital industries that could benefit from customizing user experience through data similar to what the gaming industry has done.
Oppex raises €1.2 Million for sales opportunities with the public sector
With Alibaba in the news for the largest IPO of all time, it's clear that connecting people that need things with people that do things is a powerful position to be in. Alibaba is the clear leader in the "real" world, but what about the public sector?
"The figure is astonishing and difficult to even understand," says Ville Heinonen, Co-Founder & CEO at Oppex. "Every year 10,000 billion dollars of taxpayers' money is transferred to companies. The public sector, controlled by both local and national governments, buys all kinds of goods and services including everything from multi-billion dollar construction and IT projects to very niche products such as fire engines or swords."
Kristoffer Lawson's Solu raises six figures for the future of work
Ever since Holvi co-founder Kristoffer Lawson got pushed out or left Holvi on his own accord, we've been curious where he would end up next. If you're looking for an in-depth article there's really no meat on these bones, but the names, numbers, and ambition level are interesting. Joined by Javier Reyes (with legal, accountancy and HR experience) and Pekka Nikander (a respected voice in secure IT) as a founding team, their new company, Solu, has managed to raise six figures from Taneli Tikka, Kaj Arnö of MySQL and Open Ocean, Edvard Sørgård from ARM, Robin Bade of Activeark and BuildIt, a leading investor and accelerator in hardware startups from Northern Europe.
Hacking Conferences Republished: Slush Battleplan
If you thought last year's event was big, Slush is nearly doubling by welcoming an estimated 12,000+ people into their doors this Tuesday and Wednesday, which should make it an entirely different beast. To get the most out of the event it's clear you've got to hustle to cut through the noise and secure your objectives. To get you thinking, we're republishing our Hacking Conferences: Slush Battleplan to get the most out of your conference experience, which is a good how-to guide to the conference world. A properly updated version can be found in CoFounder Magazine, which you should easily find at Slush.
While the article is full of silly pictures and "Art of War" quotes, CEO of ArcticStartup Dmitri Sarle is a master of his craft. We recently were at Dublin Web Summit, a 22,000 person event, and somehow Sarle managed to hack his way into the speaker lounge to hang out with Bono, Peter Thiel, and a number of other VIPs. More war stories from Dublin include getting the garbage man to open up a gate to get him into a secret speakeasy for Paddy's afterparty, and also somehow getting the wristband to get on stage to help ring the NASDAQ opening bell.
You get out of conferences what you put into it.
TheFashion raises €1.37 from North East & the Danish Growth Fund
Ever since sharing the same office as the Publishzer / TheFashionMag guys (no longer in development) I've been looking for more startup innovation in the fashion world. It's a huge market where money is actually flowing, but is an industry left untackled by the 20 something male startup founder that typically gets in touch with us.
