The New RQ-7B Shadow Aircraft Builds On The Same Architecture That Has Proven Highly Successful On The Current Shadow Aircraft Throughout Nearly 750,000 Flight Hours. (Photo: Business Wire)
AAI Unmanned Aircraft Systems, an operating unit of Textron Systems, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, announced today that it has received a $358 million award from the U.S. Army's Program Manager – Unmanned Aircraft Systems for engineering support and system upgrades that will create a fleet of 45 upgraded RQ-7B Shadow Tactical Unmanned Aircraft Systems (TUAS). Deliveries of 43 systems for the Army and two for the Marine Corps are expected to begin in late 2013.

"The RQ-7B Shadow upgrade, dubbed V2 by the Army, includes enhancements to every part of the system, from the aircraft itself to the ground and support systems," says Senior Vice President & General Manager Steven Reid of AAI Unmanned Aircraft Systems. "It represents all of the agility and performance needed for current mission requirements, as well as robust capabilities to meet future needs. As a result, the Shadow system will perform even more reliably in core areas including intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance; target designation; communications relay; and battlefield damage assessment; but it also will excel in new missions such as manned/unmanned teaming."
The new RQ-7B Shadow aircraft builds on the same architecture that has proven highly successful on the current Shadow aircraft throughout nearly 750,000 flight hours. It is multi-mission equipped with an integrated payload for day and night imagery, as well as communications relay and laser target designation capabilities. The aircraft also applies the Army's interoperability profiles, while vastly increasing communications bandwidth and enabling digital data delivery.

AstroAid is a universal app for iOS devices running iOS 5.0 or later*. It functions as an aid to visualising what you will see through your telescope when you use a particular eyepiece and, optionally, an optical aid (such as a Barlow lens). Additionally you can pair an imaging device (imager or camera) with a telescope or camera lens and show the field of the imager overlaid on the sky. The ability to drag and rotate the imager field will help with imaging session planning.
The app computes a number of parameters for your telescope/eyepiece/imager combination, such as magnification, actual field of view, visual magnitude limit, etc. and displays these values in tabular form.
Additionally, the application contains images of the 110 Messier objects and will show you what these objects would look like through the eyepiece (by suitably scaling the images). The app also contains the NGC, IC and Caldwell catalogues, and the ability to download similar images conveniently via the Internet.
The app contains extensive lists of known vendor-supplied telescopes, camera lenses, eyepieces, imagers, and optical aids. You can also create your own custom entries if your equipment isn't listed (for example, if you made your own telescope).
A complete manual is available on the support page at:
AstroAid is (currently) priced at US$2.99.
* This implies that the app will run on: the iPhone 3GS or later, the iPod Touch 3rd generation or later, and all versions of the iPad. Sorry, the app is not available for Android or Windows.

Five things you'll always find in the fridges of the Denver FIVE
Lori Midson Here's what you'll find in my refrigerator at home, but what do the FIVE chefs and bar magicians have in theirs?
Like a lot of voyeurs, I'm intrigued by the contents of other people's refrigerators, especially the refrigerators of chefs. And, apparently, so is Leigh Sullivan, the innovator behind FIVE -- five local chefs and their bar cohorts, all of whom cook (and pour) at various restaurants and venues around the state, including the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen; they also head to the James Beard House in New York every September to kick some Denver whoop-ass.
Sullivan polled past and present chefs and bartenders from FIVE, and asked them what they stocked in their refrigerators at home. Pickles, butter and mustard were popular answers, but at least one chef admitted to lining his shelves with gummy worms. Here's a rundown of what you'd find if you poked your head behind their closed doors.

Monument Valley recovered development investment in one week
Monument Valley is one of the best games I've ever played on an iOS device -- if you don't believe me, read the review -- but the fact that it didn't conform to the free-to-play trend meant that it wasn't a guaranteed success. It's absurd, but the game's US$3.99 price tag is considered a "premium" pricing model these days. Thanks to the game's huge word of mouth appeal, it managed to make back its development investment after its first week on the market.
Speaking at GDC Europe, Lead Designer Ken Wong explained that the game has found a way to appeal to non-gamers despite being a paid download. "For many of them, this is the first game they've ever finished," he said.
Wong went on to mention how the game's extensive play testing led to big changes in how the world appeared to the player. When it became clear that the majority of players ignored interactive objects in the world in favor of focusing on their own character, the team changed the visual cues to emphasize those elements so they would not be overlooked.
At last count, Monument Valley had passed one million sales after four months of availability. That money is being used to fund the team's next project, though that title has yet to be revealed, or even hinted at.

Accessories and Documentation
If you remember back to the image when I first opened the box, this bit of cloth was lying on top of it. Das Keyboard ships this to keep that sleek and sexy, shiny black plastic looking brand new while not damaging or marking the surface. Also a bit of a tip, this cloth should be used dry to clean the keyboard.
To power the Das Keyboard Model S Professional there is a two meter, plastic coated, USB 2.0 lead that terminates with two connections. On the left is the USB 2.0 connector to power the hub, while the lead on the right with the included PS/2 adapter attached to it is what controls the keyboard.
This little piece of paper is all the instructional or informational goods received with the Das Keyboard. It states things like this keyboard requires no drivers for Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux use. To get underway you just need to power down the PC, plug in this keyboard and turn on the PC.
The default plug and play drivers will allow complete functionality of the Model S. They also add their site address to keep up on the latest Das Keyboard has to offers and also a way for owners of Das Keyboards to get additional free goodies.

A brief cinematic history of Mars
Ghosts of Mars 2001
This is an unfairly maligned Martian film. Okay, it's nowhere near as good as John Carpenter's early work. It's honestly kind of dumb. But fun dumb (and let's face it, Big Trouble in Little China isn't awesome because of its deep plot and intellectual approach to the source material). Here we have a bunch of miners going nuts and acting all murderous and zombielike, while a bunch of badasses (Natasha Henstridge, Ice Cube and Jason Statham) investigate. And kick lots and lots of ass. Turn off your brain and enjoy the ride.

I find that last bit surprising, no portable defibrillator at Mission:Space? I'm hoping they've since fixed that problem.Polak acknowledged that there was no portable defibrillator stationed at Mission: Space. But she said well-trained, well-equipped paramedics handled the emergency response appropriately. She also said the 44-inch height is appropriate for the ride, and that Disney has no reason to change the ride or public warnings that are delivered through multiple signs and audio and video media. They warn, among other things, that people with heart conditions or high blood pressure should not ride.
I think I will stick to the diet version myself, I don't want to have to start taking physicals prior to my Disney trips to see if I can ride M:S safely or not. As far as taking my kids on it? You can forget about that ever happening. It's not worth the risk as far as I'm concerned.
My thoughts go out to those who lost someone so tragically at the happiest place on earth.

Magnolia figo
Banana Shrub
Evergreen, Shrubs, Trees
MAGNOLIAMagnolias are magnificent flowering plants featuring blossoms in white, pink, red, purple, or a more recent development, rich yellow. These plants show a remarkable variety of leaf shapes and plant forms. New varieties and hybrids appear every year, but distribution is spotty in local nurseries. Many more kinds are available from mail-order specialists.
Magnolias include both evergreen and deciduous types. Most have large, striking blossoms composed of petal-like segments, but a few are grown for use as foliage plants.
For any magnolia, choose the planting site carefully—virtually all of these trees are hard to move once established. Magnolias never look their best when crowded. Pick a location where the shallow, fleshy roots won't be damaged by digging or by soil compaction from constant foot traffic. All magnolias may be used as lawn trees; try to provide a good-size grass-free area around the trunk, and don't plant under the tree.
Magnolias appreciate fairly rich, well-drained, neutral to slightly acid soil amended with plenty of organic matter at planting time. They will grow in somewhat alkaline soil but may develop chlorosis. At least in the early years, keep a cooling mulch over the root area.
Irrigate deeply and thoroughly, but don't waterlog the soil or the tree will drown. Only M. virginiana can take constantly wet soil.
Feed trees if new growth is scanty or weak, or if you see significant dieback despite adequate watering and drainage; use a controlled-release product. Treat chlorosis (lack of iron—common in alkaline soils—that shows up as yellowing between leaf veins) with iron chelates.
Leaf damage can result from excess mineral salts in the soil or salts in irrigation water. The latter is a problem in Southern California and, typically, the factor limiting success of magnolias in desert regions. Frequent heavy waterings will help leach out salts and carry them to lower soil levels—as long as drainage is good.
Evergreen from China. Slow growing to 6–8 ft. tall (possibly to 15 ft. tall) and about two-thirds as wide. Densely clothed with glossy, leathery, 3-in. leaves. Plant blooms most heavily in spring but produces scattered flowers throughout the summer. Blossoms are 1–1 1/2 in. wide, creamy yellow with a thin brownish purple border on each segment. Notable feature is the powerful, fruity fragrance, like that of ripe bananas; the perfume is strongest in a warm, windless spot. Choice plant for an entry or a patio.

Obama's food stamp epidemic
Obama's America has more and more people on the government dole. Of course, that's the way Obama wants it. More leaches to rely on a government handout.
Nearly 15% of the U.S. population relied on food stamps in August, as the number of recipients hit 45.8 million.
Food stamp rolls have risen 8.1% in the past year, the Department of Agriculture reported, though the pace of growth has slowed from the depths of the recession.
Obama's speech ... Fair Fair Fair
It is not the role of government to dictate fairness. It is only the role of government to ensure that others cannot infringe upon your pursuit of life, liberty and property and this shall be done with an equal application of the law. Seems as though Obama has strayed pretty far from this concept.
Obama: "From each according to their ability, to each according to their need"

Meaningful conversations about brand, from Davis Brand Capital.
Even for Hollywood, where long odds and high stakes are staples of storytelling, the plotline is a doozy: A couple of old business rivals facing the threat of a lifetime agree to put aside their differences and join forces on a half-baked experiment that makes them laughingstocks. (We're thinking Jack Nicholson and Warren Beatty.) And who do they put in charge? A young guy, a newbie to the biz. He promptly cleans house and hires an even younger guy who's halfway around the globe. These renegades throw out the rule book — and they pull it off. Their idea kills. The naysayers feast on crow. This pitch meeting would not end well. Cue Ari Gold: Nobody'll believe it, not in a million years. Are you nuts? Get the %*#$ out of my office! Yet this is the tale of Jason Kilar and a company called Hulu, costarring the heads of NBC and Fox, with guest appearances by Andy Samberg, Tina Fey, Jeff Bezos, and Walt Disney.

Cowboys get good news on Bryant's knee
August, 20, 2012
Dan Graziano | ESPN.com
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant limped off the practice field Monday and was sent for an MRI on his knee. Per Todd Archer at ESPNDallas.com, the diagnosis is patella tendinitis and the prescription is rest. While Todd reports that there's no word yet on whether Bryant can play in either of the Cowboys' final two preseason games, the news is as good as the Cowboy could have hoped -- no ligament damage and no mention of surgery.
I certainly don't see any point in rushing Bryant back to play in preseason games. With tight end Jason Witten already a question mark for the Sept. 5 regular-season opener due to a spleen injury, and wide receiver Miles Austin 0n the shelf with a hamstring injury, quarterback Tony Romo is running low on passing-game targets. Injuries like these highlight the point I keep making about the Cowboys -- that they're not deep enough in general or strong enough in other areas to weather serious injuries to their offensive stars. The offensive line, the pass rush and the defense in general are all question marks to a certain extent. What's not a question mark for the Cowboys -- and what cannot be, if they hope to contend -- is the quality of the players they have on the field at quarterback, wide receiver and tight end. The Cowboys' priority for the rest of the preseason should be to make sure those guys get through the next couple of weeks without anything bad happening to their health.

I'm looking for ideas to cover the well casing in the front yard. I have a hankering for a gazing ball, but that would require a pedestal wide enough to cover the casing. Thanks for any ideas. |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by missingtheobvious Blue Ridge 7a (My Page) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 16:15
How tall is the casing, and how wide? Is the well located in an existing planting area? Where is it in reference to the house, the driveway, the sidewalk along the street, the walkway from driveway to front door, etc.? |
- Posted by velvetfoot Z5 NY (My Page) on Mon, May 18, 09 at 23:28
My wife says she'd go for a fake rock. I'm surprised there's nothing specialized for this other than maybe a fake rock, wishing well, lighthouse, etc. There's gotta be millions of these relatively unsightly things dotting the countryside. |
- Posted by missingtheobvious Blue Ridge 7a (My Page) on Tue, May 19, 09 at 1:14
You want something to hide the well, but you probably prefer that the final result doesn't scream "Bad attempt to hide the well!" but instead looks like a normal feature of the landscaping. Part of that will depend on where the well casing is located. Myself, I don't object to a nice fake rock, especially if combined with good landscaping and a couple of other -- preferably authentic -- rocks to make it less obvious that the big one is filling the role of concealing an unsightly well. Depending on the size and shape of the well and where it is located, you could build -- or have someone build for you -- a stand for your gazing ball which would fit over the well casing. I've seen in a catalog a short gazing ball stand which is designed to sit on something else. So build yourself a pillar-ish thing large enough to cover the casing, and in proportion for the size of the gazing ball. Put one of the short stands on the pillar, or simply sit the ball in a bowl. If the well casing is too wide for a pillar in proportion to a gazing ball, make a wider pillar and put a birdbath bowl atop it. |
Every time I post this solution it is ignored. Perhaps you will do the following...visit a builder's supply business that sells chimney flues. The large, square size should fit comfortably over the well head. Now, set a large stepping stone/flat stone cover on top of this and you have a 'platform' upon which to display 'whatever'. BTW, it is quite common to find a chimney flue that is cracked or chipped, not suitable for chimney building, at a very inexpensive price with a little bartering. An easy solution waiting for creative displays such as a bonsai, a large pot or basket dripping with color, a gazing ball, a fountain, a statue. This has been my favorite method over the years yet it still allows easy access to the well. |

Had I this situation, nandina's idea would be one I'd seriously consider - have seen arrangements of clay chimney flue liners used as planters. No reason a flue or liner couldn't both hide and, with a simple cap, be a platform for something. |
- Posted by velvetfoot Z5 NY (My Page) on Tue, May 19, 09 at 21:07
Thanks for the ideas. My well is about 18" above grade-I think that might be code. Not sure how long the flue liners are, but probably not that long. I guess I'm gravitating toward the rock, if only to keep my wife happy, but I'll keep trolling the web for ideas. Thanks again. |
Flue tiles exceed 18" in height. Check out the idea in person before dismissing it. |
- Posted by mad_gallica Z5 Eastern NY (My Page) on Wed, May 20, 09 at 7:58
The problem with flue tiles of that size is the weight. Around here, cracked, cut down ones are often buried in the ground to contain aggressive plants like mint. It's a job to get them in place, but the idea is once they are there, it's a fairly permanent installation. |
- Posted by duluthinbloomz4 (My Page) on Wed, May 20, 09 at 11:00
If you're going to be trolling the web - at least Google chimney flue liners or just chimney flues. If nothing else, the sites will show you sizes, shapes - and would be something to "landscape" around in the same sense a fake rock would be. The more realistic |
Is the casing PVC? or PVC inside a metal casing. You'll want something to protect the down-hole portion from being moved or broken not just a decoration. |
- Posted by velvetfoot Z5 NY (My Page) on Thu, May 21, 09 at 14:04
In my case, it's in the middle of the lawn, so a car would have to seriously wrong to hit it. As far as the flue liner, it's personal taste. I still like the gazing ball thing, but I can't my wife on that, and finding a big enough pedestal might be tough. I did find a fake granite birdbath, but the top "stone" looked unnaturally balanced. |

Chris Wallace thinks the "mainstream media" is giving too much attention to the Occupy Wall Street movement — yes, the same press that covered every tea party rally and town hall screech-fest around the clock. That mainstream media.
By the way, isn't it great how conservatives are so quick to defend the corporate criminals who caused this catastrophe? When you're wondering why you can't find a job and the bank is about to foreclose on your home, thank a conservative.
Oh, and Fox News Channel is the number one cable news network on television. How are they not part of — if not most of — the mainstream media?

Particle Trace in Fog
Name: Seth Status: other Grade: other Location: CA Country: N/A Date: 12/13/2005
What are the chances or is it possible to see a 'particle trace' in ordinary fog similar to what happens in a cloud chamber? Are there other places or circumstances where one of these particle traces might be observed?
A cloud chamber operates on the principle that a high energy particle/photon passing through a chamber that is SUPERSATURATED with some vapor provides a trail of sites for the condensation of the unstable vapor. The key is that the vapor phase is supersaturated and hence unstable. There are various ways of re-establishing the unstable state over and over again. When the particle/photon passes through the supersaturated vapor and the "seeds" for condensation of the unstable vapor are formed this track of fog particles is photographed. It would be highly unlikely that a supersaturated water phase could be maintained long enough to be able to observe a cosmic ray or some other particle traveling through the atmosphere. Supersaturation does occur in the atmosphere. This is observed occasionally when one experiences the beginning of a rain shower, or and increase in the rainfall, after a lightning stroke. But it would be difficult to "capture".
There are cases where high energy particles (alpha particles/cosmic rays), or radiation (x-rays), pass through condensed media and leaves a "damage" trail which is frozen in the solid phase and can be observed.

I bought these shoes because it said "slip-resistant". If you work in a kitchen, these are NOT slip-resistant. Otherwise, they are comfortable. Not keeping them long enough to see if they hold up to wear and tear...

Easter 2008 Alleluia Christ is Risen!!! Happy Easter to every Genesian! Each and everyone of you reading this email is a beloved one of God and this Easter we are reminded again of our belovedness in His eyes; our chosenness. We give thanks for a beautiful Holy Week and Easter Triduum for the choir and the parish. From combined choir practices and masses, to our own Lenten Vigil and Good Friday service, Genesians put in their time and effort to make a joyful noise for our God. Your very presence and immense support are a sign and witness to the simple message of our Easter season = "Christ is Risen!" Priscilla Ng, Dione, Sandrine, Eunice, Joanne, Marilyn, Woei Lin, Daphne, Joanna, Andrea, Samantha, Melina, Anthony, Shaun, Bryan, Matthew, Darren Zeng, Danny, Jonathan, Paul, Gerald, Dominic Setiawan, Dominic Ng, Jared, Darryl, Duane, Kenneth - We praise and thank God for your joyful and humble singing at the Mass of the Lord's Supper, Lenten Vigil, Good Friday and Easter Vigil. We are deeply blessed and thankful for Melvin, Winnie and Noel for their leadership of the combined choir, and of our own services. Through your tireless planning and patient conducting, we and the other choirs had a meaningful and blessed experience this year! Much more than previous years. From all the nitty-gritties of Holy Week, song choices, coordination and execution while having to miss Easter Vigil, Melvin (also Lit Com vice-chair) really ensured and supported and encouraged everyone. Winnie, being one of the main conductors, guided us through the hymns and brought out our soulful singing. All this while also planning our own Lenten Vigil on Maundy Thursday, which was a touching and meaningful vigil. Noel was inspired to compose 3 psalms for Holy Week (2 with ensemble parts) and gave his all for the various services where he played. We also thank God for the many GII alumni who came to support us at Lenten Vigil Christina, Fabian, Anthony (& Sing Wah), Jason, Rachel, Marissa, to name a few. While we celebrate our great season of Easter, let us also keep in our prayers the intentions of Boggs (Rodelio) and his family in the Philippines. Boggs' mother recently passed away and he had to return home over Holy Week to see to her funeral and other matters. Let us really keep Boggs and all other Genesians who are overseas or far from home in our prayers. For Genesians in the SAF who have just completed their BMT Christopher Raj, Kenneth (SISPEC) and Marcus (Biochem Combat Engineer Seletar Camp). May God guide and protect them as they begin their training. For Genesians who have new members in their families! We thank God for the gift of newborns (and future singers) - Avelyn to Marc & Eulindra; and Kai to Desri & Kenneth! For the many Genesians who have contributed designs for our 25th Anniversary t-shirt and jacket we thank God for their creative gift and dedication Dominic Setiawan, Juliana Sankaran, Pamela Wettasinghe and Elden Low. We also welcome Danny into GII this Easter.

1st Sunday of Lent - 24 Feb 2007 When he calls to me, I will answer; I will rescue him and give him honour. Long life and contentment will be his. Pre-mass: Holy Darkness - parts G: One spirit one church P: Softly and Tenderly Jesus is calling C: Be with me - song sheets T: Old rugged cross - parts (Alto & Bass harmony) - song sheets R: Change our hearts After mass we will have our prayer meet aka input session.
Ash Wednesday 21 Feb 2007 The overall theme in our service as choir for this Lent is echoed in the hymn Take up your cross. This Lent let us as a choir participate more fervently in the mass, in the Eucharist. Celebrating mass is more than just rituals and singing nice songs; we come together as witnesses of God's mercy and love, to joyfully proclaim our response to God - Amen! Christ will come again. Thanks be to God. It is from mass, the highest form of worship, that we are nourished and enabled to go out into our world to build His kingdom. What are you doing this Lent? This week? This year? That defines you as a Catholic Christian and servant of God? In the context of GII, how have we fulfilled that or how are we lacking in it? 6.15pm mass Practice at 5pm choir room G: Save your people P: Softly and tendering Jesus is calling C: On eagle's wings T: Change our hearts R: They'll know we are Christians For the imposition of the ashes:1. Ashes 2. Hosea Gospel acclamation for Ash Wednesday: "Glory to the Lord, Amen" (x2)
7th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 17 Feb 2007 Lord, your mercy is my hope, my heart rejoices in your saving power. I will sing to the Lord for his goodness to me. Love of enemy - How can we love our enemies, turn the other cheek, or give people the shirt off our back? And why should we? How far will that get us? That is what Jesus said will get us far indeed. We should treat enemies with the very kindness and mercy of God, the way David and Abishai treated their enemy Saul, the Lord's anointed. We should refrain from judging them. We should stop condemning them. We should forgive them. We should give to them a generous measure. We should do good to them. We should love them. G: Rain Down #628 P: Ubi caritas - parts #334 C: We have been told - parts #517 T: Blest be the Lord - parts #447 R: City of God #369
6th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 10 Feb 2007 Lord be my rock of safety, the stronghold that saves me. For the honour of your name, lead me and guide me. G: Canticle of the Sun P: Seed, scattered and sown C: To be your bread - parts T: Be not afraid - parts R: How great thou art

2006 diary
Advent 2006 "To the poor a lasting treasure, to the frail a guiding hand; There is wealth beyond all measure pouring forth at God's command. To the outcast and rejected, a love that knows no end, to the ones who least expect it, a Saviour comes as friend." It is a start of a new church year! The liturgical cycle of our church and of our lives continues this weekend with the first Sunday of Advent. Advent is our time to become more involved, more caught up in the meaning and the possibilities of life as a Christian community. Thus we are preparing not only for Christmas but also for Christ's Second Coming. This year's GII camp from the 3rd to the 5th of December (Sun to Tue) helps us start off the church year together. Our camp this year is focused on building bonds and establishing a more cohesive GII. We will come closer together through prayer, song and the various activities, with Christ at the centre of it all. But one 3 day camp cannot answer the basic spiritual needs of such a large and varied group as GII. We must begin to come together to provide that community of faith - firstly at the Eucharist (celebrating mass together); through the devotionals (the rosary, novenas, prayers); the catechetical (catechism class, bible classes, RCIA) and the personal (sharings, affirmation, encouragement, reflections). "You are all we have; you give us what we need. Our lives are in your hands, O Lord; our lives are in your hands." For the 4 sundays of this Advent, we will be providing an atmosphere of prayer and reflection, and of joyful anticipation, through songs chosen especially for this season. Come to us, O Emmanuel will return as the gathering song, and will conclude with the lighting of the Advent candle. Maranatha reflects our waiting and our longing for Christ. Come, Lord Jesus. You are all we have and Do not let your hearts be troubled affirms our trust and abandonment in Christ. We shall prepare is our joyous proclamation of the coming of Christ into our own lives. A beautiful thing to note, is that while we as a choir will be caught up with singing for mass, midnight mass practices and midnight mass itself, many less fortunate people in Timor Leste will be receiving new aid and new hope during this period. A small bit of that aid and hope came from many of us who donated and prayed for them. What else can you do, GII? Is it really that hard or cliched to feed the hungry or set the prisoner free in our own country, in our own homes? Let us "feed" those who hunger for love, acceptance, friendship, trust, the Word of God... Let us "free" those who are imprisoned by money, jealousy, anger, indifference, prejudice.... Let us begin the new church year on the right foot together. We will falter together but we will recover together. Let us keep each other in our prayers; and let us pray for the return of many Genesians to serve God in what we do best - make a joyful noise! "We will welcome all as pilgrims; none will leave our homes unblest. We will gather all God's children, giving life and love and rest."
GII Anniversary 2006 This year we celebrate our 23rd birthday on 05 Nov 06. Calling all members, past and present, to 6pm mass on 04 Nov (Sat) followed by a fancy dress party in church!

Even the Rat Was White views history from all perspectives in the quest for historical accuracy. Histories and other background materials are presented in detail concerning early African-American psychologists and their scientific contributions, as well as their problems, views, a ...show morend concerns of the field of social psychology. Archival documents that are not often found in mainstream resources are uncovered through the use of journals and magazines, such as the Journal of Black Psychology, the Journal of Negro Education, and Crisis.
The text is divided into three parts. Part I, Psychology and Racial Differences, expands and updates historical materials that helped form racial stereotypes and negative views towards African-Americans. Part II, Psychology and Psychologists, is updated with specifics of what and how psychology was taught in the pre-1970 Black colleges, and brings forward the contributions of Black psychologists.

Rousseau and Comtet's hideaway is both brilliant and flawed for the same reason: they never ran a hotel before. (Neither had Rousseau, the property's designer, done any professional decorating.) Answering to no one, unhardened by the business, and having never had a flop, the pair turned their lack of experience to creative advantage. On the other hand, the basics elude them: the phone system doesn't allow you to call outside the hotel from your room, and if anyone thought of turndown the idea was rejected. The list of things missing is fairly endless.
Having marketed movies, Comtet now markets the hotel. In the nineties, he and Rousseau operated an artists' residence at Château de Bionnay in the Beaujolais, where, in exchange for being lodged and fed, wards left behind a work. Many of the beautiful velvet curtains at Hôtel Particulier were recycled from Bionnay and pool extravagantly on the floor because Rousseau couldn't bear to cut them down. During her patroness period, one French magazine wrote that she "is not satisfied with being beautiful, charming, and rich," and a privileged, slightly spoiled air still clings to her. Rousseau's disco-y vision of herself in her new role as hotelkeeper involves stomping around in extremely high heels, leggings, and peekaboo tops, her hair a tangle of choucroute. It's an impressive show.
Unlike at other art-driven hotels, she did not simply enlist artists with instructions to let themselves go. "I think that's an inherently false idea and one doomed to fail," says Rousseau. "It vulgarizes and trivializes their work, and besides, you can't necessarily expect them to design spaces that work for a hotel."
Instead, the rooms are collaborations. Artists furnished the provocation, Rousseau the creature comforts. The Arbre à Oreilles suite features a poetic if maddeningly enigmatic wallpaper commissioned from Pierre Fichefeux, an indie illustrator known to readers of WAD. The paper depicts a tree and storks with their beaks tied or handcuffed. I don't know how anyone could be expected to figure this out without a user's guide, but Fichefeux intends guests to record a secret using a microphone set in the wall along the tree's trunk. The birds are unable to repeat the secret, but a speaker on the other side of the room can—not just yours, but the secrets of everyone who has slept in the Tree with Ears and confessed.
Across the hall in Vitrine, Philippe Mayaux explores the same notion—that of travelers leaving something behind—with a wall-hung glass cabinet guests have begun to fill with doll's shoes, a figurine of a mermaid with butterfly wings, and a palm-size Eiffel Tower. A second cabinet contains Mayaux's kinky, precisely composed still-lifes of pink, rubbery objects, suggestive of sex toys and dental appliances. If this was the only room available, I think I might go for the Mercure.
Rideau de Cheveux showcases two giant photographs by Natacha Lesueur of young women looking fixedly from behind curtains of their own hair. Lesueur can't make up her mind whether they're "guardian angels" watching out for you, or "silent witnesses" registering your indiscretions. Végétale is wrapped in a photomural of dense branches in full leaf by Martine Aballéa. Olivier Saillard, a curator at 's Les Arts Décoratifs-Musée de la Mode et du Textile, dressed Poèmes et Chapeaux entirely in gray and black men's suiting fabrics—pinstriped flannel for a buttoned slipper chair, drap de laine edged in tuxedo satin for the bedcover.
Marie and Philippe were least kind about the common salons. Working with a merchandiser whose clients include Chanel, Rousseau stuffed them with so much Saarinen and Jacobsen furniture they look like Knoll showrooms. She has a lot of plans for the hotel—a restaurant, a bar, even, imagine, someone on duty nonstop from 7 a.m. to 1 a.m. That all sounds promising. In the meantime, Rousseau shouldn't insist too much on the hotel being "just like home," which it is in that you have to do most things yourself. The very least you can say about Hôtel Particulier now is that it's a great place waiting to happen. The location doesn't hurt.

For Kill Your Darlings, first-time director John Krokidas finagled a spectacular Young Hollywood cast to echo the gathering of Allen Ginsberg and other young Beat poets at Columbia University before they became famous. Daniel Radcliffe, Dane DeHaan, Ben Foster, Boardwalk Empire's Jack Huston, and Elizabeth Olsen play the coterie of ambitious free thinkers whose mission to rewrite the rules of literature is dramatically impacted by a real-life murder in 1944.
For the lead role of Ginsberg, Krokidas turned to Radcliffe, who won over the young director by insisting on auditioning even though the Harry Potter star could probably have had the role with just a nod. "We did a couple of scenes from the script and a couple of improvs, and it was just one of those moments where I saw all of these colors come out of him that I hadn't seen previously in his work [as] the one character that we'd known him for," says Krokidas. "I just saw the character that I had been writing for so many years come to life in front of me."
DeHaan plays Lucien Carr, the magnetic but troubled ringleader of the group who catches Ginsberg's eye — as well as the obsessive devotion of a former mentor, David Kammerer (Michael C. Hall).
The film debuted at last year's Sundance Film Festival, attracting headlines and causing some clutched pearls as "Harry Potter" portrayed a famous gay man experiencing his intellectual and sexual awakening.
