Mitch Mayers, exec chef of Black Pearl, on Mohawks and Agio
Most memorable meal you've ever had: When I was twelve, I was in Florence and went to a tiny, family-run restaurant that was recommended to us by a local. The food and ambience were spectacular, and it felt like we were in someone's home. I ate gnocchi for the first time with a Gorgonzola cream sauce with pine nuts and peppers. I remember thinking how simple yet truly outstanding it was. From that point forward, gnocchi has been one of my favorite things to eat and cook.
Favorite childhood food memory: My brother and I used to pull up highchairs from our kitchen island on either side of the stove while my grandmother cooked pancakes. As we sat and watched her cook, she'd alternate between the two of us, giving us steaming hot pancakes absolutely smothered in butter to eat while she cooked.
Favorite junk food: I really love Cheetos and cookies, plus pretty much anything that's fried.
Favorite dish on your menu: Hickory-smoked duck breast. It's served with cumin-perfumed potatoes, sautéed watercress, harissa sauce and quince jam. To me, it's the perfect balance of smoky, sweet, savory and spicy.
Biggest menu bomb: This wasn't on a menu, but when I was young and first getting into cooking, I wanted to prove that you could eat healthy and still make it taste good. Turns out that making a low-fat Alfredo sauce is not the way to go about that. I ended up using about every spice I could think of to try and make it taste good, and it was still disgusting.
Weirdest customer request: While I was cooking in a restaurant in New York, we had a wild king salmon on our menu, and I had a customer request that we smother it in ketchup and bake it in the oven. I'm almost always willing to do whatever I can to make the customer happy, but there was no way I could destroy this beautiful piece of fish with ketchup, so I told the customer we would just simply grill it and they could slather on the ketchup once it got to the table.
Weirdest thing you've ever eaten: A 100-year-old egg, straight up, in China. The flavor wasn't bad, but the texture was beyond gross.

Hey, everybody. It's me here. And I wanted to talk to you about something kind of you know really big that's happening in our culture right now. I'm sure those of you who are on social networking sites like Twitter, Facebook or Tumblr have seen billed post about Kony 2012, make Kony Famous, Joseph Kony, Invisible Children and I'm sure a lot of you are getting involved and a lot of you have different opinions on the issue. I know it's been a huge source of controversy over the last few days because people have been doing more research as to you know Invisible Children and how they allot their money and stuff like that. And whether or not you know there's really a problem in Uganda. And I know in my college campus it definitely caused a lot of tension and debate and there's a lot of students who wanna do something about it and there's a lot of students encouraging others not to participate. And I think it's really important that we have that kind of criticism of movements because it's good to think analytically about different things that you participate in because you don't wanna look back and retrospect and be like oh I did the wrong thing in this situation you know you know it's not a good thing what I did. And so I think it's really good that we got people on both sides and I love seeing the passion in the young people around here. I know in Davis there's a lot of people that are really really passionate about this charity and about what's going on in Central Africa and I think it's awesome that young people want to get so involved because I've seen them all you know protest tuition hikes and police brutality within our own town but to see it on a global scale is really encouraging. However, I would advice everyone who's thinking about getting involved in the Kony campaign to do your research on you know whatever charity you decide to support as far as you know the Ugandan child soldiers because there are companies, charities that aren't necessarily what they say they are. But I think it's definitely great and I just encourage everybody regardless of what charity it is. If it's for breast cancer, if it's for you know social services in your town, if it's for you know pets you know animal rights just make sure you do your research on the charitable organization that you're donating to. Regardless of what it's for. I think that's really important to know where your money or you know actions are affecting people. On my college campus something that I'm getting involved in I'm sure if you watched the Kony 2012 video by Invisible Children you've seen their cover the night idea. Where on April 20th a lot of people are gonna meet up at night and cover the towns and campuses wherever they are with posters to take Kony 2012 in order to spread awareness. And UC Davis being super eco friendly, green campus we're concerned about that because that's a lot of paper you know that doesn't necessarily need to be posted everywhere. So I'm gonna be part of the UC Davis Kony 2012 Cover the night Clean up group and we're gonna go around a couple days later you know recycling the paper that was used for the Cover the night campaign. And so that way people are made aware of the issue by seeing this posters but then also we're not damaging the environment by wasting a bunch of paper so we can take this and recycle it and put it to good use after the campaign which I think is really cool. Some people aren't involve because they don't believe in what that campaign stands for. And some people are super super passionate on this campus. It's really a wide variety and I'm sure it's the same wherever you are and I encourage you to take part in debates and you know arguments not necessarily arguments friendly conversation about what's going on. Cause it's good to get both sides know what's going on in the world and I think that the passion that I've seen in young people all across this country is super encouraging because if there's true (injustice?) happening I know that the youth will stand together to prevent it and I think that's really really awesome. However like I've been saying this whole time, do your research but keep that passion that passion is awesome. It blows my mind that people are so on fire to do something good for other people just for the sake of doing something good. That blows my mind because I'm kind of almost lost faith in the youth in this Jersey Shore you know generation. It's really good to see people wanting to do something beyond themselves and I encourage you guys to have that mind set all the time not just when it's a Facebook trend. I love seeing people that want to get socially active and to do something for other people and it's so important as a young person to you know be globally aware and to want to take part in things like this and to be passionate about causes because those causes are important. And don't let people tell you that they are not it's important to care. And I think it's really great and I just want to encourage all of you who are participating in this to keep your passion but just to be informed so all right you guys leave comments for me telling me how you feel, what you're doing about all of this you know campaigning or how you are you know acting during it. And let me know if you guys decide to do a recycling campaign in your town as well cause I think that's a really good idea. All right guys stay informed and have a good day.

Reading Guide
This Blinding Absence of Light
Tahar Ben Jelloun
Translator: Linda Coverdale
Like many books that bear witness to human cruelty, Tahar Ben Jelloun's This Blinding Absence of Light is propelled by a simple, powerful narrative. Its spare tone and lean style are reminiscent of other great books of life under totalitarianism. (Elie Wiesel's Night and Alexander Solzhenitsyn's memoir The Gulag Archipelago spring immediately to mind.) Ben Jelloun's book is in many ways all the more affecting in that it deals with evil of smaller scale than these works, but its message is similar: that autocratic government institutions act without mercy.The book is not without ambiguity. Though the protagonist/narrator is jailed for his role in a revolutionary coup attempt in 1971, few readers would sympathize with the revolutionaries in question: The "revolt against the state" that the narrator has participated in may to some resemble little more than the massacre of attendants at a royal birthday celebration.
Whatever the narrator's guilt or the merits of his cause, his arrest condemns him to twenty years in a subterranean jail cell too small to stand up in. There the protagonist is subject to horrific tortures. But just as challenging over time is the unchanging purgatory of prison life: the same stale bread and weak coffee, the same complaints from the inmate in the next cell, the same memories of laughter and sunlight before his incarceration. Self-control is the narrator's defense. "If it is the child within us who awakens when we are afraid," he tells us, "here it was the wise man and the lunatic in me who revealed themselves as ardent opponents, each striving to take me the farthest from myself."
This thought sustains him as he endures each new cruelty and indignity. By denying himself and controlling his thoughts, he remains relatively healthy and sane. His compatriots do not adapt so successfully: one dies trying to relieve his constipation, another tries to commit a gruesome suicide in a grave of quicklime, while two prisoners are devoured by roaches (one from the inside out, the other from the outside in).
And yet the success of the protagonist is not a tale of monkish self-mastery à la Nelson Mandela. The narrator's every magical thought, intellectual rationalization, and appeal to God eventually fail him. And as the narrator tells his own story through memory, his story becomes more and more complex and unclear. He understandably resents his father for abandoning his family for a life of royal brownnosing, but it is clear that the narrator joined the coup in part from a fascination with the image of gunning down his father. Likewise, the protagonist's relationship with his mother changes as the book progresses, from a strong binding tie between family members into an almost incestuous obsession. Ben Jelloun does not allow us to rest with a simple view of "the suffering hero" who stoically bears all adversity due to the purity and righteousness of his cause. Such a luxury, he seems to be telling us, is out of place if we want to understand the world as it is.
And that, in the end, touches on an important message of the book: Morocco's postcolonial society is still dominated by dysfunction, from its elites to its revolutionaries; the colonized do not instantly recover once the colonizer leaves. That the narrator is saved not by his fellow citizens but a European-based Human Rights campaign adds a further twist to the portrait of a Morocco that has not yet escaped the turmoil of its past. That we respect the narrator's suffering regardless of his political leanings is Ben Jelloun's humane rejoinder to those who suggest easy solutions to the realities of postcolonial life.
Tahar Ben Jelloun was born in the Moroccan city of Fes in 1944, a city still closely connected with its history as one of North Africa's preeminent Islamic cities. Ancient hamlets within the city are still protected by Troy-like defensive walls, and the city is dotted with some of the oldest mosques in Africa. Fes was the center of multiple kingdoms in the past millennium, but in the twentieth century, Morocco came under French control, and the French moved the capital from Fes to Rabat. Like many African countries, it emerged from colonial rule in the 1950s, becoming an independent yet authoritarian monarchy. "Independent but not free" describes the Morocco of This Blinding Absence of Light.
Young Ben Jelloun followed his fortunes away from archaic Fes to the modern independent capital of Rabat where he found his voice, publishing his first collection of poems, Hommes sous linceul de silence, in 1971. Notably, it was a work in French—as the bulk of Ben Jelloun's subsequent work would be—though Ben Jelloun's native tongue is Arabic. Critical arguments have been made for and against his linguistic decision, but one point is undeniable: Ben Jelloun would never have become one of the preeminent literary voices of North Africa if he had written purely in Arabic. French was a window to Europe, and from there to the world.
In 1971 that Ben Jelloun moved to France, where he earned a Ph.D. in social work. His studies opened a new literary avenue, the retelling of stories told to him. Ben Jelloun turned the plight of some of his patients into his second novel, La Reclusion solitaire. In 1987, the sequel to that book, titled La Nuit sacree won the Prix Goncourt, France's most prestigious prize for literature. This Blinding Absence of Light (originally titled Cette aveuglante absence de lumière) takes this writing style and sharpens its political edge: based on the testimony of an inmate from Tazmamart prison, This Blinding Absence of Light is an explicit call to arms for Morocco's civil society. In 2004, Linda Coverdale's translation of the book won Ireland's International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award.
- The narrator never fires his weapon at the palace birthday party. Does this lessen his guilt?
- Toward the beginning of Chapter 11, the narrator tries to make peace with the absence of natural light in his world. How does he describe the light? Is he actually talking about light, or is this a metaphor?
- Chapter 11 closes with an image of prison horror. Why do you think Ben Jelloun ends the chapter so brutally? How does the imagery (and other shocking scenes) affect you?
- There is a lot of repetition in the book (such as the imagery of the jail cell as a tomb) that mirrors the repetitious life of a Tazmamart prisoner. What effect does this hypnotic technique have on you as a reader?
- The prisoners ascribe magical wisdom and intelligence to many animals they find (a dove, a dog, an owl, and others). Is this as a sign of madness, a sign that some of them are becoming attuned to nature, or something else?
- The narrator masters many psychological techniques, such as letting go of the past in order to stay sane. How would you apply his methods to your own life? Are these strategies relevant only for those in desperate situations?
- Even though the guards inflict brutalities on the prisoners, do you ever feel sympathy for the guards. What would you do if ordered to treat fellow citizens so harshly?
- In what ways is the Kmandar actually the arbiter of the prisoners' fates, and in what ways is he simply a force the narrator and others use to rally around?
- Do any of the issues in the book remind you of, or shine a new light on, political issues in the world today?
- Although the book is set literally underground in a prison, and is a work of fiction, what can readers glean from the book about Moroccan history, mores, religion, culture, and politics? For each category, cite specific page references.

Los Angeles Blues News Release -- www.labluesprosoccer.com
Tuesday, March 6, 2012
FULLERTON, Calif. – The Los Angeles Blues are excited to announce they have secured the services of former Bethesda Christian University standout and Republic of Korea native Cho Sunhyung. Prior to joining the Blues, the 23-year-old plied his trade in his home country with second division outfit Seosan Omega before making his way across the Pacific to play his college ball in Orange County while also suiting up for the Fullerton Rangers. Blues Associate Head Coach Shayon Jalayer explained why the coaching staff is convinced Cho has what it takes to successfully complete the transition from the Rangers to their professional cross-town neighbors.
"When it comes to our backline, we're not looking for grunts who only know how to win tackles and headers but for guys who also know what to do with the ball at their feet," Jalayer said. "Cho is that kind of player who has both the intelligence and the technical ability to find solutions under pressure. In addition to that he's very fit, so he really brings a variety of elements to the table that we like." The skilled defender has been in camp with the Blues for several weeks and turned in a strong performance against the Mexican U-20 national team on February 28. While staying true to his humble and team-oriented mentality, he did allow himself to think big for just a moment as he looked ahead to the upcoming USL PRO campaign. "I'm very excited to be part of such a talented group of players," he said. "I really think 2012 could turn out to be a very good year both for the team and for me individually. Part of that is having great coaches who want to play a style that is all about keeping possession. That really suits me. My objective is to make the Blues better whenever I'm on the field and to help them accomplish whatever goals the coaching staff will set. Of course, winning the championship would be a dream come true."

Conspirator in Bank Fraud Scheme Sentenced to 22 Months in Prison
Greenbelt, Maryland - U.S. District Judge Peter J. Messitte sentenced Adolphe Roland Zoa, age 30, of Bronx, New York, today to 22 months in prison followed by five years of supervised release for bank fraud and aggravated identity theft, in a scheme in which conspirators withdrew more than $520,000 from bank accounts by impersonating the true bank account holders, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein. Judge Messitte also ordered Zoa to pay $68,200 in restitution, the amount of loss attributable to Zoa.
According to his guilty plea, from October 2005 through March 2006, Zoa conspired with others to obtain the names and bank account information of at least six bank customers. They used fraudulent identification documents to impersonate these victims at bank branches in order to withdraw money from those customers' accounts, resulting in a total loss to the bank of more than $520,000.
For example, beginning in at least February 2006, Zoa impersonated a customer and made a number of unauthorized withdrawals from the customer's account, often using as identification a counterfeit Maryland driver's license in the customer's name. Between March 22 and 27, 2006, Zoa withdrew $68,200 from the customer's account.
Co-conspirator Aiah Momoi Gbondo, age 30, of Silver Spring, Maryland, pleaded guilty to the same charges and was sentenced to 61 months in prison and ordered to pay $520,000 in restitution. Ghislain Nkoto, age 30, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, pleaded guilty to three counts of bank fraud and one count of aggravated identity theft. Nkoto fled to Cameroon and has an international arrest warrant pending. Desiree Venn, age 26, of Beltsville, Maryland pleaded guilty to bank fraud and was sentenced to 75 days in prison.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein thanked the United States Secret Service for its investigative work, and commended Assistant United States Attorney James A. Crowell IV, who prosecuted the case.

–An interview with Theresa Shoatz and Matt Meyer
This month, a 30-day action campaign was launched demanding the release of Russell 'Maroon' Shoatz from solitary confinement, where he has been held for over 23 consecutive years, and 28 of the last 30 years, in Pennsylvania prisons. On April 8, when the campaign began, Maroon's legal team sent a letter to the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections (PA DOC), demanding his release from solitary confinement and promising litigation against the PA DOC if he is not transferred to general population by May 8.
The action campaign describes Maroon as "a former leader of the Black Panthers and the Black freedom movement, born in Philadelphia in 1943 and originally imprisoned in January 1972 for actions relating to his political involvement. With an extraordinary thirty-plus years spent in solitary confinement…Maroon's case is one of the most shocking examples of U.S. torture of political prisoners, and one of the most egregious examples of human rights violations regarding prison conditions anywhere in the world. His 'Maroon' nickname is, in part, due to his continued resistance—which twice led him to escape confinement; it is also based on his continued clear analysis, including recent writings on ecology and matriarchy."

Green Vegetables: creating your own reality
Thanks for the clip Jenna!
What happens when you start including greens, especially in juice form, into your routine regularly? Here's a pretty typical example:
From Neeta at the Integral Dynamic Healing Blog:
A month ago, I started juicing and that changed everything for me.....after only ten days of drinking green juices in the morning, my body started craving greens, more and more greens. Nutrient dense, fresh, clean foods. In the beginning I used to dislike the green powders I added to my juices as well as to my water, then I began to love them.....I found myself one morning making a paste with two scoops of green powder and using my fingers to lick it all up......wierd or what!!!! My body started rejecting sweets, those yearnings began to fade away.
It's amazing how quickly the body goes into auto-pilot when you bring the essence of life, green juice, back into the picture.
Good stuff Neeta!

Develop A Career Path
Are you undecided on a degree program or career field?

4226 Preston Rd, Frisco, TX 75034
06/25/14 - menu now says ALL MEATS, RUBS AND SAUCES ARE GLUTEN FREE. and they sell the rubs/sauces you can see the ingredients on the website (guessing in store too) All the meats are GF. They are very helpful on suggestings GF sides. They have cider at the bar (on draft). No GF Barbque sauces but I didn't think the meat needed it. I've never had issues with my celiac here. Update- 02/16 - contacted them after Brandy posted the no GF review and was told all meats and rubs are gluten free (this is what the pit master told me when I first posted). They have the best bar-b-que and I hated to think something had changed.
2930 Preston Road, Frisco, TX 75034
Great tacos. The Frisco location has cider! Updated May 29 - chips no longer gluten free. They are cooking flour sopapilla chips in the same oil.
6000 California Street, San Francisco, CA 94121
While they serve Udi's they have major cross contamination issues. Even with my mention of my celiac. No gloves. She grabbed my husband's roll and then mine. My udi's was then sent through the same toaster as other bread and landed in a pile of crumbs. The sandwich was built on a cutting board that was not wiped off and cut with the same knife as my husbands. We were with a group and so I ate it without complaint but I'm regretting it now (will say it tasted good but not worth this pain)
2701 Custer Parkway #915, Richardson, TX 75080
Great burger with Local Oven bun. Manager informed me (after the cashier didn't know) that it is NOT a dedicated fryer for the fries. They change the oil daily but the fried pickles, onion rings, chicken tenders, etc are cooked in the same fryer. I had a side salad since I have celiac.
6115 La Vista Drive, Dallas, TX 75214
Lakewood location has a dedicated fry fryer!!!! Gluten free buns. Owner asked if I had celiac and was very aware. Great meal!!!
3411 Preston Road, Frisco, TX 75034
Wonderful cupcakes and cookie sandwiches. Love their pizza crust!!
3685 Preston Road, Frisco, TX 75034
Build your own individual sized pizza. Great gluten free crust. Owner allergy aware - changed gloves and used all new/clean utensils when dealing with my pizza. Fresh toppings. He said he trains all his employees to be aware of gluten and cross contamination.
807 West 6th Street, Austin, TX 78703
Really good gluten free bun. Had a Angry Orchard!!! And was able to get green beans so I had a side. I've missed Huts so this made my day!!!!
9909 Garland Rd, Dallas, TX 75218
Owner's friend has celiac. He promised her a place she could enjoy They have GF pizza crust, GF buns and glutino crackers. Also GF beer and ciders. Just let them know and they are very helpful. Food was great!
2809 Preston Rd Ste 1200, Frisco, TX 75034
Gluten free pizza. Very aware. Cooks on a separate stone. Has GF beer and cider

Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson
Legendary Prog Rock icon Ian Anderson has announced a 2014 UK tour, following the release of his new concept album to be recorded early next year and released around Easter.
Anderson will be touring throughout 2014, starting in the UK late April; the show will feature a selection from his new 2014-release concept album - which he defines as 'Folk-Prog-Metal' - in its more theatrical setting, together with a selection of Jethro Tull highlights. The upcoming record release will feature heavier, less acoustic guitar sounds and more of Anderson's trademark flute.
He says "After winning the Grammy for best "Hard Rock/Metal" album back in 1988, this seems like an opportunity to justify that strange and misplaced accolade with a new album to celebrate the more forceful, full-on rock credentials which are found in many of my songs over the last 45 years. It's not an end to the acoustic and gentler moments but more of an emphasis on the louder aggressive flute style which marked me out from the earliest days of Jethro Tull."
Following the great success of his current 'Thick As A Brick' tour - including a one-off performance at the iconic Royal Albert Hall - tickets for the 2014 shows are expected to go fast when they go on sale. Get your tickets below!

Sorry we currently have no dates available for Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Plato and Aristotle, a detail of The School of Athens, a fresco by Raphael. Aristotle gestures to the earth, representing his belief in knowledge
02-21-2013 #6
Is it strictly $#@!pit view? That would be a bad move.
All the detail is cool for demonstration purposes, but as a game it needs to grab the gamers through the gameplay. I wasn't thrilled about all the emphasis on "each thread of fabric" or the most realistic metal ever. It needs to be a great, fun drive.
However if there's a enough car-philes out there to make this game popular, then great. I just don't see this being really mainstream.
02-21-2013 #7
Looked good from what they showed. I want to see more.

I hope the detail on the engines and the seats does not effect the MUCH MUCH more important aspects, like the environment details.

Dude seemed really enthusiastic about how much care and detail was put into the car models, which is nice I guess. I love racing games and this is 100% on my radar. I was just expecting GT6 My fault I guess!
Nice to see Evo doing something other than Motorstorm as well

So it's like Fight Club with cars? Like you said Nitey, he sounded like he was about to blow a wad on stage just talking about the cars. I kid. It is nice to see when devs are really excited about their games. It leads you to believe they care more about pleasing everyone with a great game than dollars signs.

I'm more interested in the physics engine considering the graphics portion is easy to do with the current hardware specs. Also would like to know if this game is wheel compatible

No female Lambs, you say?
I'm in Montana on spring break, but I hit the library before leaving town for two weeks, to pick out ten or so books, from which hopefully I could pick five to finish my thesis list. I showed the list to my thesis advisor, who quickly suggested I read Ex Libris first, a book of essays by Anne Fadiman. Study the way she makes one thing about herself relevant to the world, were my instructions. I'd never read Fadiman before, but I put the book in my stack because it was aesthetically pleasing, at least that was the first reason. The cover is fabulous—love the slightly-darker-than-seafoam-green color, love the Latin title, which I didn't know means "from the books" but did know that "libro" is Spanish for book, and the subtitle is, after all, "Confessions of a Common Reader." My advisor apparently thought it would be helpful to me as a writer, and Natalie Kusz, thank you, because this little book taught me and also made me really happy. I'm not shitting you when I say it was a joy to read.
Fadiman's anything but a common reader, however. Growing up, her family grew up with Wally the Wordworm, a story her father wrote about a voracious reading worm who couldn't find enough adventure or enough to eat in the common one and two syllable words in children's books, and so went instead of the dictionary, eating up syzygy and ptarmigan.

I am having a strange issue with Calendar requests. When I send User A a meeting request, User B gets the request in her inbox.
This started happening when User B opened User A's shared calendar. I asked User B to remove the shared calendar and it stopped.
User B then re-added User A's shared calendar and the invites started going to user B again. This time upon removing the shared calendar, the requests continued to go to User B. All the while User A isn't getting the requests at all.
I have checked Mail Flow delivery options in exchange for both users. I have checked for rules in Outlook. I have checked for delegates (which User B is a delegate for an unrelated user but not User A). I have also ran a command in powershell to display all delegates found in our mailbox database.

7 Documentaries That Give the Finger to the Art World
Cinematic Listology By Nonfics on September 23, 2014 | Be the First To CommentDocumentary cinema has a lot of stories about the art world. It's not surprising, really. Readings or lectures about art can be tedious to the average viewer, and fiction film often has trouble jazzing up the subject, but the standard model of doc filmmaking is ideal for conveying facts and concepts while keeping the audience engaged. Still, such films usually struggle to attract an audience, and it's not hard to figure out why — art is usually seen as a stodgy field, fit only for snobs. And given how deep the ties run between fine art and the whims of the upper class, this is not an entirely unreasonable stereotype. This makes it particularly funny when someone comes along to upset the fruit cart. Sam Cullman and Jennifer Grausman's new film, Art and Craft, demonstrates what happened when museums discovered one forger who only donated and never sold his fakes. In that spirit of rabble-rousing, here are a few more that come in a similar vein. These are films that refuse to play by the art world's rules. In one way or another (and sometimes unintentionally!), they lay bare the eccentricities and hypocrisies that fuel this sheltered sphere of rich collectors and stodgy institutions. F for Fake (1974) One of Orson Welles's last projects, this freewheeling cinematic essay starts as an interrogation of famed forger Elmyr de Hory's career before spiraling off into various explorations of the nature of art and authenticity. Welles is keeping company with a host of other "fakers," mainly his fellow actors […]
3 Movies Clandestinely Shot at Disneyland Before 'Escape From Tomorrow'
Features By Christopher Campbell on October 12, 2013 | Comments (1)Films have been shot at Disney theme parks since before Disneyland even opened in 1955. The year before, Walt Disney personally offered a sneak peek of what was to come in the pilot episode of Disneyland. And specials made for TV and souvenir videos continued from there, whether it was to show the attraction on its opening day or offer virtual tours of the park or introduce new additions or to celebrate some anniversary or another. The same goes for Walt Disney World following its opening 16 years later. Once in a while, though, something makes its way out of the parks that's not made by Disney. Even then, it might be with permission, as in the 1962 Universal release 40 Pounds of Trouble, which features an extensive chase sequence through Disneyland (watch Tony Curtis and some Keystone-esque cops run around Main Street here). And the Matterhorn scene in That Thing You Do (directed by the guy who would later portray Disney). But there's also Randy Moore's Escape From Tomorrow, a movie that shocked audiences at Sundance this year with its unauthorized guerrilla shoot at both Disneyland and Walt Disney World. Escape is hardly the first movie to get away with secretly capturing material on location at Disneyland, however. And now that it's out in theaters and on VOD, this is a good time to highlight three such clandestine pieces of cinema.
Review: I Fell For 'This Ain't California' In More Ways Than One
Docu-Mental By Christopher Campbell on April 14, 2013 | Be the First To CommentThe main difference between Exit Through the Gift Shop and This Ain't California is that the latter's main character has been revealed to be a fiction. Other distinctions are that it's about skateboarding rather than street art, that it's set in 1980s East Germany instead of 2000s L.A. and that it has an energy and spirit that's far more captivating than Banksy's Oscar-nominated documentary. Otherwise they share a quality where the "realness" of the story is totally inconsequential given that, true or false, it's still the same movie and says the same things and makes us feel the same way about its subject matter. I have to admit right away that I "fell for" the whole thing. That's what happens when you avoid reading about a movie before you see it, I guess. All I knew was that it won a special award at Berlin last year and that it was a documentary about German skate culture. And I fell for it, too, meaning I fell in love with it. I found it to be electrifying, which can't be ignored now that I know a lot of it is "fake." Of course, fake isn't a good word for the film, because co-writer/director Marten Persiel hasn't necessarily pretended that every person in the film existed or that all the Super-8mm footage is as old as it seems.
Movie News After Dark: Sacha's Dictator, Simon Pegg's Writing, All Night Risk and Epic Voiceover Tweets
Movie News By Neil Miller on June 9, 2011 | Comments (2)What is Movie News After Dark? It's a nightly movie news round-up that finds the darndest things. Like Sacha Baron Cohen's beard, creepy Musketeer posters, Mark Wahlberg, Simon Pegg, Paul Walker and a way to make your tweets into epic cinematic adventures. You need this and you know it. We begin tonight with Sacha Baron Cohen looking crazytown as The Dictator, his latest mockumentary prank film. Only this time, it's got a more concise narrative. Cohen will play the dual roles of a ruthless dictator who heads to the U.S. for a meeting at the United Nations and finds that his number two has replaced him with an unsuspecting sheepherder lookalike. The big guy has sort of a Cosmo Kramer meets Mr. T vibe going on, with all the frills of the late Saddam Hussein. That feeling deep in your loins is unbridled excitement. That's a good thing.
Oscar Breakdown: Best Documentary Feature
Academy Awards By Landon Palmer on February 25, 2011 | Comments (2)While we may not see a non-fiction film nominated for Best Picture anytime soon, the Best Documentary Feature has for many risen from a minor category rarely given its due attention to a battleground for some of the most important movies in a given year. 2010 was no exception, and in this year and in this category there are an impressive collection of docs addressing a variety of subjects in unique ways that truly exemplify the personalities of the filmmakers behind them. If no other year has convinced you the documentary is a great art form, this one should. But perhaps more significantly, this year exhibits such a variety of films that it throws the simplistic notion that a documentary should occupy one single mode of address out the window: here we have ambitious and stylish massive doc about a very complex subject, an intimate biographical advocacy piece, some on-the-ground investigative journalism, some trash art, and that film everyone's been talking about all year that puts the entire notion of artistic truth into question. Only one of these films will take home the gold at the end of the night, but I'll be damned if they're not all impressive pieces of non-fiction filmmaking. And the nominees (with my prediction in red) are…
The Academy Kind of Admits They Don't Care if Banksy Wears a Mask to The Oscars
Academy Awards By Nathan Adams on February 23, 2011 | Comments (1)There has been much hullabaloo over speculation as to what will happen if the Banksy directed doc Exit Through the Gift Shop ends up winning the Academy Award for Best Documentary. Banksy is a popular street artist who maintains a lot of his mystique through hiding his identity. He narrated Gift Shop shrouded in a hood and with voice modulation. Whenever pictures are shown of him, he is usually wearing a ridiculous monkey mask. Most likely, if Banksy were ever to be unmasked, we would all be faced with the stunning realization that he is… some guy. That's why it's very important that he maintains his secrecy. Mystery equals intrigue; intrigue equals people shelling out boatloads of cash for his work. The Academy has been around show business for quite some time. They understand what Banksy is doing here. And yet, up until this point, they have made it clear that showing up to the Oscars wearing a monkey mask would be completely unacceptable. Academy president Tom Sherak reportedly told Banksy's representatives, "We suggested to them that it might be a good idea that if he did win, one of them would accept in his place – that it would not be dignified for the Academy to have somebody come up wearing a monkey's head."
Talking Heads: Nominating a Documentary For Best Picture
Features By Scott Beggs on February 4, 2011 | Comments (1)Every week, Landon Palmer and Cole Abaius log on to their favorite chat client of 1996 as THEFANFROMLONDON and DinoDNA007 in order to discuss some topical topic of interest. This week, the two tackle the fact that no documentary has ever been nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Why all the hate, AMPAS? Sure, it has its own category, but that doesn't deny it entry into the big game. Is there an internal bias against non-fiction? Should Jackass 3 been facing off against The Social Network? Will we see a documentary nominated for Best Picture in our lifetime?
Movie News After Dark: Banksy's Oscar Campaign, Guillermo's Monsters and John Waters Forever
Movie News By Neil Miller on February 1, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhat is Movie News After Dark? This is a question that I am almost never asked, but I will answer it for you anyway. Movie News After Dark is FSR's newest late-night secretion, a column dedicated to all of the news stories that slip past our daytime editorial staff and make it into my curiously chubby RSS 'flagged' box. It will (but is not guaranteed to) include relevant movie news, links to insightful commentary and other film-related shenanigans. I may also throw in a link to something TV-related here or there. It will also serve as my place of record for being both charming and sharp-witted, but most likely I will be neither of the two. I write this stuff late at night, what do you expect?
Envelope Please: The 2011 Academy Award Nominees
Movie News By Scott Beggs on January 25, 2011 | Comments (14)At the end of the 90s, famous Oscar show writer and Celebrity Fit Club contestant Bruce Vilanch claimed that, "Generally with the Oscars…there isn't much you can do until the nominations are announced. Then you know what kind of year you're dealing with – what's been overlooked, what the issues are." He was talking about preparing to write the show, but it applies to everyone from the directors, producers and stars on down to the fans. It's fun to guess around the water cooler (your office still has a water cooler?), but until now, it's all been speculation. Thankfully, almost all that speculation has been spot on, so we can all continue our conversations about whether Black Swan will beat The Social Network for Best Picture. Whether Natalie Portman has any true competition for Best Actress. Whether, most importantly of all, Colleen Atwood will beat Mary Zophres for Best Costume Design. Here they are. The 2011 Academy Award nominees:
The Best Films of 2010: The Staff Picks
2010 Year in Review By Neil Miller on December 31, 2010 | Comments (15)As I expressed earlier in the week as our 2010 Year in Review began, I take it as a great honor that I am able to put together my list of the Best Films of the Year as part of my Editor's Picks entry. And while I'm a massive fan of my own perspective and opinions, I'm an even bigger fan of the writing and ever-diverse tastes of the Film School Rejects reviewing staff. These are the folks who, through their sensational (and often divisive) review-writing, keep you coming back for more each and every day. They travel the world and brave the crowds at festivals, conventions, preview screenings and special events to bring you some of the industry's sharpest, most honest film coverage. And I for one am honored to have them all on this team. Just as I did last year, I couldn't wait to see which films each writer would put on their Top 5 lists as the best films of the year. And just as they did last year, they didn't disappoint with their unique, ever-fascinating selections. So read on dear reader, as we present the crown jewel of our 2010 Year in Review: The Staff Picks.
Year in Review: The Best Foreign Films of 2010
2010 Year in Review By Rob Hunter on December 29, 2010 | Comments (17)Welcome to my list of the best foreign films of the year! In case you're wondering why certain films appear to be missing there are a few factors to take into account. First, films like Mother, A Prophet, The Good the Bad the Weird, and The Secret In Their Eyes are movies that made previous lists. Second, I haven't seen everything that was released this year. And third, your favorite foreign release from 2010 may actually have been a piece of shit. I kid. But seriously, these are my picks for the ten best foreign language movies of the year in alphabetical order. As a bonus I've added in the five best English language foreign films for you as well. I know. You're welcome. (Full reviews for all of the titles below can be found via our Reviews database, and my weekly excursions into foreign films can be found here.)
Year in Review: Top 10 Topics, Trends, and Events of 2010 That Have Nothing to Do With the 3D Debate
2010 Year in Review By Landon Palmer on December 28, 2010 | Be the First To CommentIt's that time of the year again: that brief span of time in between Christmas and New Year's when journalists, critics, and cultural commentators scramble to define an arbitrary block of time even before that block is over with. To speculate on what 2010 will be remembered for is purely that: speculation. But the lists, summaries, and editorials reflecting on the events, accomplishments, failures, and occurrences of 2010 no doubt shape future debate over what January 1-December 31, 2010 will be remembered for personally, nostalgically, and historically. How we refer to the present frames how it is represented in the future, even when contradictions arise over what events should be valued from a given year. In an effort to begin that framing process, what I offer here is not a critical list of great films, but one that points out dominant cultural conversations, shared trends, and intersecting topics (both implicit and explicit) that have occurred either between the films themselves or between films and other notable aspects of American social life in 2010. As this column attempts to establish week in and week out, movies never exist in a vacuum, but instead operate in active conversation with one another. Thus, a movie's cultural context should never be ignored. So, without further adieu, here is my overview of the Top 10 topics, trends, and events of the year that have nothing to do with the 3D debate.
Editor's Picks: The Ten Best Films of 2010
2010 Year in Review By Neil Miller on December 28, 2010 | Comments (16)One of my favorite non-starters for articles is the very bland "as you may know." There's no doubt in my mind that you've seen me use it in the past (I'm doing it again right now). So when I thought about how to begin this year's top ten article, I wanted to begin by saying "as you may know, one of my great honors around here is to deliver my list of the ten best films of the year." But you may not know how much of an honor that really is. In fact, it's difficult for me to put into words how honored I feel to have anyone read this at all, let alone the scores of readers we see on a daily basis here at Film School Rejects. It's safe to say that I speak for everyone here when I say that I am deeply honored by the opportunity just to write about film. You, the reader, offer that to us every day with your patronage. So my hope is that I can do you proud, dear reader, as I present my list of the ten best films of 2010. This year saw a great deal of personal turmoil for me, meaning some movie-watching blind spots. But some late-year scrambling has pushed my total films seen number well north of 200. And of those 200 or so eligible films, whittling it down to ten wasn't quite as difficult as it's been in recent years. Does that mean that […]
Breathtaking: Filmography 2010, The Year in Movies
Movie News By Neil Miller on December 14, 2010 | Comments (3)If you are anything like us, 2010 has felt like much of a let down at the movies, especially lately. What with all of the talk about the year's final tentpole being a bust and the Golden Globes nominating a movie with Christina Aguilera not once, but twice, it's easy to see how post-cinemadum depression may be setting in. Then we watched this incredibly well edited video from an artist named Gen-I. It's called Filmography 2010, and it makes 2010 feel like it might actually have been a good year at the movies.
Most DVD Tuesdays see a random smorgasbord of titles released with no discernible pattern, and this week is ultimately no different. But it does feature a fairly hefty sampling of one genre in particular… documentaries! Who's up for some true stories and real life drama, mystery, and comedy? Don't turn your nose up so fast people. There are some fascinating true stories below, yes, even the one on Joan Rivers, and they're all worth a watch or two. Titles out this week include The Other Guys, Cyrus, Exit Through the Gift Shop, The Town, Gasland, and more.
The 2010 Indie Spirit Award Nominations Celebrate Sadness With 'Winter's Bone'
Movie News By Scott Beggs on November 30, 2010 | Be the First To CommentThe top nominations for this year's Indie Spirit Awards are no surprise. Winter's Bone continues its march through the woods to find its father and an Oscar with 7 nominations (which is almost all it was even eligible for). In a close second, The Kids Are All Right finds itself with 5 nominations. If you're a fan of female directors, this year is celebrating a number of them in the top spots, but it's also incredibly important to point out that Samuel L. Jackson and Bill Murray are finally up for the same award. The Indepdenent Spirit Awards make a good primer for the films that might make their way into the Academy Award nominee pool. In recent tradition, the winner of the Best Feature prize goes on to be an Oscar contender (and occasional winner). Examples of that include Precious, The Wrestler, Juno, and Brokeback Mountain. The full list of nominees continues below:
Culture Warrior: A Case for the Non-Fiction Best Picture
Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on November 16, 2010 | Comments (3)With the release of Pixar's Up, last year saw a great deal of conversation surrounding the ghettoization of animated movies at major awards shows. This debate resulted in something of a minor, qualified victory for animated cinema of 2009, as Up was the first animated movie to be nominated for Best Picture since Beauty and the Beast, but then again it sat amongst a crowded bevy of nine fellow nominations, and animated films remain unthreatening to their live action competitors because of the separate-but-unequal Best Animated Feature Category. I'd like to take this space to advocate for the big-category acceptance of yet another marginalized and underappreciated category around awards time: non-fiction films.
Culture Warrior: This is Not a Banksy
Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on May 18, 2010 | Comments (2)There is the belief that art can elude, confuse, and manipulate meaning just as readily as it can reveal truth and reality to us. There is the alternate belief, however, that the illusion of reality and truth manifested through art is its most deceptive function. There's a lot to be said about this subject with respect to Banksy's street art documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop, and here are what amount to, for what its worth, my two cents.
This week, on a very special episode of Reject Radio, tears are shed, feeling are shared, and you the listener will be very, very moved.
The First Five Minutes of Banksy's Exit Through the Gift Shop
Movie News By Neil Miller on April 7, 2010 | Comments (2)One of the most irreverent and fun films that I caught at this year's Sundance film festival was the Banksy-centric documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop, a film about a filmmaker who fails to make a film about one of the world's most famous street artists. Now you can watch it, too. At least the first five minutes, that is.

Sultan Troop 52 has been recognized by Edwin Reger, District Executive for the Mount Baker Council, for earning the prestigious "Gold Journey to Excellence Award."
This special award is a troop recognition program in which the scouts have to score in 11 of 13 areas in volunteering and service work in the community. The troop must score 1600 points or more to receive the "Gold" status. Troop 52 earned 2050 points, outpacing many bigger organizations.
"It is always a pleasure to participate in events like the Court of Honor Troop 52 of Sultan held on April 9. They are a very active Boy Scout troop with energized boys and dedicated adult leaders. It is great to see the scouting program in action," said Reger.
In addition to the Gold Journey to Excellence Award, Kyle Westover, 13, Sam Thomas,13, Dustin Russell, 13, and Connor Crowley, 13, earned merit badges for camping, hiking, pet care and citizenship.
"The work ethic these young men displayed to earn this award has been very impressive to watch. They work hard and play hard," said troop leader Terry Westover.
Boys between the ages 9 and 18 years old who would enjoy learning about camping, hiking, shooting sports, citizenship and much more may contact Westover at (425) 244-4645.

Why won't TNS listener connect with Oracle Database 11g 32-bit?

I've done the following changes, to no avail:
- Change local_listener of 32-bit instance to default name LISTENER by: Alter system set local_listener=''
- Change 32-bit instance listener.ora port to 1521
What do I need to do to make 32-bit Oracle 11g work with 64-bit TNS listener?
> ORA-12541 TNS:no listener
I'm not sure what the Transparent Network Substrate (TNS) definition for orac11g32 is, but the definition is pointing to a server that is not running any listener on that port. The session isn't yet to the point where it determines where the listener is. Verify that the TNS alias is pointing to a valid server with a listener on that port.

Hi, everyone! Over the last two weeks I have spent some-time collecting my first team for this game. But I'm still new to the game and within my city, players are somewhat hard to find. Can someone help me with my team?
I'm thinking about running a SAMIEL team.
Samiel, The Black Lion/lv.50/Samiel Death Pact/Life Potion +5
Aoi Inukai/lv.40/Aura+5

Kairos/lv.45/Smoke Cloud +5
So can someone help me with this team? I still want this team to be about 300 points.

Great Camera, but D-Link's support for MacOS isn't perfect.

The MacOS installation wizard can be downloaded within the My D-Link support page. The Wizard is easy to use, but setting up the wireless access is slightly more tricky. If using a Apple Time Capsule you can only setup wireless by accessing the admin page for the camera, this can be done by typing the cameras IP address as listed in the Installation Wizard into your web browser address bar. There is wide range of settings for the camera in the admin control, including timed sessions, and image quality to name a couple.
Overall fantastic for the price, just a bit more effort for a MacOS user to setup and a tricky wireless setup thats not listed clearly. …- Written by Thomas K from Norwich

New to cameras like this and thought as it was a 'cloud' camera that footage would be saved in the 'cloud'. My mistake. Another pu New to cameras like this and thought as it was a 'cloud' camera that footage would be saved in the 'cloud'. My mistake. Another purchase of £239 required for a D-Link cloud hard drive to save footage. Purchased camera to find out 'who' in the animal world dug a tunnel outside a window. They are night activity animals so thought I could point camera towards outside from inside but not possible as 'night vision sensors' reflected back from window and makes outside viewing impossible. Again, my mistake. Live streaming possible if i wanted to stay up all night. Oh yes, the set up. Advice: ignore red label on connectors as CD is out of date and you must download the Setup software from D-Link website. Absolutely make sure you have the exact model of camera as there is one with a few more letters at end and this setup software DOES NOT WORK but digging around the website I did find the exact model of camera and this software FINALLY DID WORK. This was by the way after three attempts at full setup!!! In the end my attempt at a reasonably priced camera to find the digging culprit has ended in failure and I must start over with a different camera. Much 'work' for a failure. …

Investigators prepare cases for civil commitment hearings or assist in the placement of individuals in treatment. In addition, we contract with Deschutes County Community Justice Department to provide treatment at the corrections facility and for their parole and probation division.
