This year I was so proud of myself for buying the kids Easter basket stuff ahead of time. I am notorious for putting it off until the last minute, then scrambling trying to get stuff together. For 3 years when Jacob and Clara were little, I actually recycled these 2 stuffed bunnies for Easter. Yes, I'm horrible. I've always been good going over the real reason, but when it comes to the Easter Bunny, I tend to wait until the last minute. I do fine with Christmas, Valentines Day, birthdays. Anyway, this year I actually got stuff ahead of time and stashed it where they wouldn't be able to find it. I was very proud of myself. No re-gifted toys this year! Flash forward 3 weeks. I went into work last behind Easter, night, got busy with an awesome delivery and it gets to be about 2:00am before I make a realization: I didn't put the kids baskets together and Husband has no idea where stuff is at, and it's 2:00am, I can't call him to tell him. Well, I suppose I could have, but that really wouldn't have been very nice. My only hope was that I got off of work early enough to get home before the kids woke up, gather up their Easter baskets that are scattered throughout the house, put stuff in them and hide them. As I'm walking out, Husband calls and says "The kids are pretty upset with the Easter Bunny". Parenting Fail. I come up with a plan that I hoped would work. I told him to where the bags of goodies were hidden, and had him put them outside with the baskets. I got home from work, assembled said baskets and came inside and said to the kids "Hey, guess what I found outside!". The kids come to the conclusion that they Easter Bunny didn't leave stuff in their baskets earlier because they didn't set them out. Phew. Thanks to my stealth mommy skills, Crisis is averted.

Our latest look at Midway's Stranglehold takes us to a marketplace that, by its inclusion of tutorial segments and the generally easy pace of the action, looks like it will probably end up being the first level in the game, though the unfinished Xbox 360 version we saw was only a section of the entire game, so even that isn't set in stone.
This third-person action shooter attempts to capture the nonstop, graceful gunplay and stuntlike acrobatics that are commonly associated with John Woo's work, and in those terms, it's feeling pretty satisfying. The left trigger in the Xbox 360 version is used to dive in any direction, though it's also a context-sensitive control. If you're standing near a glowing object or surface, like the handrail on a staircase, Inspector Tequila will hop onto the rail and let you run right up it. The level also has plenty of carts, and running at these and diving causes you to dive onto the cart, which starts rolling forward. You can steer it a bit while you shoot at enemies.
Stranglehold is clearly taking a lot of inspiration from the Max Payne series, and as such, the game also makes a big deal out of slow-motion "bullet time" effects. Here, it's called tequila time. You can enter it at will, but the game also defaults to automatic use of your slow-motion power. If you dive sideways or slide down a handrail while aiming at an enemy, the game slows automatically, making it easy to line up shots and take out enemies. It's a bit different than Max Payne, though, as it slows down only when you're actively trying to line up a shot or pointing at an enemy. This makes more economical use of your slow motion, which is governed by an onscreen meter. The meter appears to refill fairly quickly, though, so running out of slow-motion time was never much of a problem during our stint with the game.
The game looks pretty good, and you can tell that a lot of work has gone into making sure that Chow Yun Fat's character model looks like the real deal. The game has a cover mechanic that lets you hide behind pillars, corners, and so on, and during these sequences, you get a good, up-close look at Inspector Tequila himself. Just like the real thing, he always seems to be wincing as he endlessly fires dual pistols, shotguns, and other weapons at his foes.
You also get a good, up-close view of things during stand-offs. These sequences happen at specific moments in the game, where you end up getting surrounded by multiple gunmen. When this happens, everything gets slow and your movement control is limited to leaning left and right to avoid bullets. The right stick becomes a more focused aiming reticle, and you need to quickly take out each enemy while leaning to avoid their incoming bullets. It's an interesting canned sequence that handles this action-movie standby in a pretty cool way.
With Stranglehold due out in August, it won't be long now until we get to see how the whole game comes together. The action definitely feels just about right, so it's up to the story sequences and voice acting to see if it can form a cohesive, cool package.

Galaxy fined £2,500 for foul-mouthed rant with child
LONDON - Galaxy Radio Manchester has been fined £2,500 for breaching broadcasting rules on offensive language, taste and decency, protecting younger listeners at breakfast time and seeking to elicit views from a child.
The item in question concerned a male, calling himself "Irish Frank", who phoned into the show advocating physical harm to women. His call was taped and then repeated in October last year. The presenters, while not condoning this, spoke jokingly about wishing to inflict violence on the caller and they both used offensive language.
The presenters then took a call from a 12-year-old girl live on air who commented on what she heard, calling Irish Frank a "fucking wanker". One of the presenters also said that he could be better described as "Irish Wank".
Galaxy described itself as an "edgy" station with a local target audience of 15- to 34-year-olds and vigorously defended its distinctive position within its market as dealing with a wide range of hard and soft issues.
It did, however, admit it had breached sections of the broadcasting code and apologised for the failures in editorial content.
The committee felt strongly that the broadcaster's production team did not appear to be used to handling such situations, and if they wanted to be "edgy" there were responsibilities that accompanied this.
Ofcom concluded that the code breaches were sufficiently serious to be sanctionable and concluded that a financial penalty would be appropriate, but at the lower end of the scale.
It is the second time this week that the regulator has levied a fine on a broadcaster for breaching programming rules. Earlier this week, it fined a porn channel £50,000 for broadcasting unencrypted trailers on Freeview.

, Written by Lyle Ahrens, Posted: Fri, January 27 2012 at 3:54 PM, Updated: Fri, January 27 2012 at 4:18 PM
The number of homeless people in Klamath Falls is on the rise. But an event held Thursday is helping those homeless to get back on track.
William Taber is a homeless father of three children. Taber notes that just a few basic necessities can give them hope...
"Get us blankets and food, and a free hot meal right now. We're going from place to place right now, and hopefully on the first, we'll have our own place."
Rob Petchell of Klamath and Lake Community Action Services says a variety of items are given away: "We have a lot of winter clothes that we give away, some food baskets, along with jackets, boots, blankets, and sleeping bags."
Donna Bowman of KLCAS explains that the event also helps to identify just how many people need help.
"Today we're doing a winter 'Give-A-Way', and what we do every year the last week of January, we do a count of homeless people."
281 people showed up for Thursday's 'Give-A-Way'. That compares to 150 last year.
Timothy Hetrick was one of the volunteers helping out. "We're here with Hosanna Christian Key Club, and we came to help today, to help out with the cartoning thing."
Organizers say they're seeing more and more homeless families. There were 67 children at Thursday's 'Give-A-Way'.
Three of those children were William Taber's kids... "I just thank God there's places like this that help." Taber said.
The homeless count will be used to help calculate future funding for local agencies. As the 'Give-A-Way' was taking place, a head count was also being taken at local missions and shelters.
A related event called 'Project Homeless Connect' is held in Klamath Falls every August.
KOTI-TV NBC2 reporter Lyle Ahrens moved from Nebraska to Klamath Falls in the late 1970's. He instantly fell in love with the mountains, the trees and the rivers, and never once regretted the move.
Lyle's job history is quite colorful. He's managed a pizza parlor; he's been a bartender, and a "kiwifruit grader" at an organic orchard in New Zealand. A Klamath Falls radio station hired Lyle in the mid 90's as a news writer and commercial producer. In 2004, Lyle joined the KOTI/KOBI news operation.
Lyle notes with pride that he has a big responsibility presenting the Klamath Basin to a wide and varied audience. "The on-going water crisis has underscored the fact that the people and the issues in the Klamath Basin are every bit as diverse as the terrain. Winning and keeping the trust of the viewers, as well as the newsmakers, is something I strive for with each story".
When he's not busy reporting the news, Lyle enjoys astronomy, playing guitar, fixing old radios and listening to anything by Sheryl Crow.

Thanks to Will King's stellar play, Scottsdale Notre Dame Prep remained perfect this season after its 33-7 win Friday night over Chandler Seton Catholic in a 4A-II East Sky Region game at Mesa Community College.
King finished 12-for-16 passing for 206 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Saints (4-0, 1-0) to their third consecutive Bishop Bowl victory.
"Will made some good plays, some real good reads," Notre Dame coach Scot Bemis said. "He still has a ways to go with me, but he'll get there."
King started off red hot by going 7-for-8 for 69 yards, including a 21-yard touchdown pass to Mayer Krigel.
"I felt pretty good," King said. "I mean, you got to get up for the Bishop Bowl."
The defense matched the offense's fast start by holding the Sentinels to just 30 yards of total offense in the first half.
"Defensively in the first half, we did a good job," Bemis said. "We bent a little too much early, but once we kind of settled into all their shifts and no-huddle offense, we settled down pretty well."
The win gave the Saints their 27th straight victory dating back to the 2007-08 season.
"It feels great; it feels really good," Saints running back Devon Villarreal said. "The first couple of weeks we came out kind of slow, but last week against (Paradise Valley) we picked it up, and we picked it up tonight."
Even with a 4-0 start, Bemis still is looking for his team to improve on the little things.
"We had a lot of mistakes, penalties that we're not accustomed to having, and we've got to try to get those things fixed," Bemis said. "When we do that, we'll be a good football team. But until then, we've got a ways to go."
The Sentinels were without starting quarterback Justin Sieczkowski, who had thrown for 1,001 yards and 13 touchdowns in the first three games of the season.
Anthony Wallace started in his place, finishing 19-for-36 passing with one touchdown and two interceptions.
"I got the call yesterday," Wallace said. "I just had to prepare like I was going to play all week long."
The loss dropped the Sentinels to 1-3 overall and 0-2 in region. Seton will need to get back on track in a hurry as the halfway mark of the season approaches next week.
"I think we'll get Justin back, and our running back, Kyle Johnson, back, and we'll be just fine," Wallace said. "I think we'll be able to make a run at the end of the season."
Seton quarterback Justin Sieczkowski isn't playing tonight. Junior Anthony Wallace is suited up instead. Wallace is 3-of-5 for 38 yards and has Seton threatening on NDP's 29-yard line at the end of the first quarter. NDP 7, Seton 0 through a quarter.
Jordan Gietz runs takes it in for an 8-yard touchdown to make it NDP 14, Seton 0 with 2:48 left in the first half.
Korey Jones runs it in from 7 yards out to put Notre Dame up 21-0 with 2:47 left in the third quarter.
Seton finally gets on the board with Anthony Wallace's 40-yard touchdown pass to Trevor Gleisner. It's NDP 21, Seton 7 with 11:51 left in the game.
Devon Villarreal carries it in for a 9-yard touchdown to make it NDP 27, Seton 7. The extra point is no good, but with just 8:29 left in the game, it looks like Notre Dame will improve to 4-0.
On the first play after a fumble recovery, Will King throws a 37-yard touchdown pass to Skyler McCurdy. It's NDP 33, Seton 7 after NDP misses the extra point. There's 7:50 left in the game.
Notre Dame (3-0) at Seton (1-2)
Time: 7 p.m.
Address: 1833 W. Southern Ave., Mesa (Mesa Community College)
Key matchup: Notre Dame did a marvelous job of slowing down Paradise Valley's offense last week and must do it again against Seton's spread.
Key stat: Seton quarterback Justin Sieczkowski has thrown for 1,001 yards and 13 touchdowns in the first three games of the season.
The intrigue: The Saints are coming off a big-time win last week, but can't let down against a Sentinels squad that is talented enough to pull an upset.

Year of inscription on the World Heritage List

Illustrative material:
See page http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/475
Year(s) of inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger
Threats for which the property was inscribed on the List of World Heritage in Danger Grave concern that portions of the Kahuzi-Biega National Park had been deforested and that hunting had been reported there, as well as war and civil strife ravaging the country, led the World Heritage Committee to inscribe the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger. The property has been much affected by the influx of refugees. Park facilities had been looted and destroyed, and most of the park staff have fled the area. The park may also be serving as a hideout for large militia groups, as well as for illegal settlers. This has led to fires, increased poaching and the illegal removal and burning of timber.
Desired state of conservation for the removal of the property from the List of World Heritage in Danger
Corrective measures identified

Factors affecting the property identified in previous reports
Current conservation issues
Kahuzi Biega National Park, inscribed on the World Heritage List under criterion (iv) in 1980, and Virunga National Park, inscribed under criteria (ii)(iii)(iv) in 1979, both contain the last population of mountain gorillas.
Due to the tragic events in Rwanda, both parks are under threat given the massive arrival of refugees from Rwanda. On 31 August 1994 the World Heritage Centre was informed that a UNHCR refugees camp for 50,000 people was going to be established near a three-kilometre strip of the Kahuzi-Biega National Park near Ihembe. The World Heritage Centre contacted immediately the UNHCR (Geneva), the Director of IZCN, Mr. Mankoto Ma Mbaelele, (Kinshasa), who was carrying out monitoring missions at World Heritage sites in Zaire, and a bilateral project by the GTZ (Germany). The Centre obtained relocation of the camp near Uvira which took the pressure from the site.
However, in spite of the relocation of the camp, the entire region and particularly Virunga National Park, situated at the border between Rwanda and Uganda has been destabilized by the uncontrolled arrival of refugees causing deforestation and poaching at the sites. In order to assist Zaire in this critical state and to help stabilize the situation, the Chairperson of the World Heritage Committee approved a total of US$ 50,000 emergency assistance for both sites, Kahuzi-Biega National Park and Virunga National Park. With the relocation of the camp, the Kahuzi-Biega World Heritage site seems to be less threatened, whereas the situation at Virunga National Park remains very critical.
The Committee is requested to examine the report to be presented by IUCN and to consider then if any action should be taken.

Pat Sajak Used to Get Wasted During Wheel of Fortune Tapings
Getty Images
Pat Sajak popped up on ESPN2's Dan Le Batard is Highly Questionable Wednesday, and finally got asked the question we've all been thinking all these years. Namely: "Have you ever done Wheel of Fortune a little bit drunk?" And he has! Take it away, Pat:
"When I first started and was much younger and could tolerate those things … We had a different show then. You didn't win money, you won fake money with which you could buy cheesy prices. A turntable would go around and housewives from Teaneck would say, 'uhhh for a $100 I'll have the lamp. No, I'll have the … ' It was the most boring two minutes of television. But because we had all those prizes, we had endless time between shows. Our dinner breaks would be two-and-a-half hours long while they drove in new cars and boats and gazebos and stuff. At NBC at Burbank we had a place called Los Arco's across the street, which is Spanish, as you know, for the Arcos … " (Note: A Chris Farley reference!) " … and they served great margaritas. Me and Vanna [White] would go across and have two or three or six, and then come and do the last shows, and have trouble recognizing the alphabet. They're really good tapes to get a hold of."
So the shows you taped while wasted were good?
"I had a great time. I have no idea if the shows were any good. But no one said anything so I guess I did okay. Now if I were to inhale the cork in a bottle of wine I'd keel over, I'm getting a little older. I would be hesitant to have anything to drink. Although I'm hammered at this moment."
The weird thing is that Sajak delivers the whole confession in his perfectly slick broadcaster voice, but that's probably just how you have very conversation after decades and decades of TV personality-dom. Still, who knew Pat Sajak could be self-deprecatingly funny? Also, who knew he used to get wasted during Wheel of Fortune? This is the mid-'80s we're talking about; the "boozy lunch move," I'm pretty sure, was badass back then, too. I'd always thought that, in the deathless battle between Sajak and Alex Trebek for "coolest host of long-running game show created by Merv Griffin," Pat would forever run a distant second. A few more stories about degenerate behavior involving Vanna White, though, and Trebek may have a competition on his hands. Just in case, Alex, you should probably start prepping your "I used to do Jeopardy! on peyote" story.

Justin Timberlake
He's preferred a more cropped, close-cut coif ever since his teenybopper days, but Justin Timberlake may be making a return to his *NSync days.
The "SexyBack" stud looked very similar to his boy band-era 'do as he stepped out onto a movie set earlier today.
Continuing to pursue his acting career, Justin Timberlake was spotted on the set of his new film "The Social Network" yesterday (November 16).
The "Cry Me a River" crooner looked hunky as he strolled past the paparazzi, sporting a black blazer with a black button-up shirt, black trousers, and shiny black shoes.
All too often celebrities are forced to take legal action in order to protect themselves against harassing fans, and the latest case involves Justin Timberlake.
Today, the "Cry Me a River" singer's lawyer is trying to get a temporary restraining order upped to permanent against Karen McNeil - who has been stalking him.
Known for offering up powerful onstage performances, Jay-Z's gig ended up being quite the draw when it came to star power during a concert in Los Angeles on Sunday night (November 8).
Held at Pauley Pavilion, romantically rumor-plagued couple Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel lovingly held hands as they skirted past paparazzi and towards the entrance.
Debunking claims of a recent breakup, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel were arm-in-arm while taking a stroll in Vancouver on Wednesday (October 21).
The afternoon outing follows a date night the previous evening, as the "Sexy Back" stud and his "7th Heaven" hottie hit up the Dunbar Theatre to check out "Where the Wild Things Are".
Joining in with the rest of America's obsession with "Where the Wild Things Are," Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel were spotted checking out the new film last night.
The "Like I Love You" singer and his "7th Heaven" hottie hit up the Dunbar Theatre in Vancouver for their low-key date.
He's always been a well-known proponent of charitable causes, and yesterday (October 12) Justin Timberlake was spotted at his golf tournament to benefit Shriners Hospitals for Children.
The "Like I Love You" singer looked dapper in his golf attire as he attempted to win $1 million for the organization by hitting a hole-in-one.
With differing reports as to their status, the latest reports tell that the rumors are true - Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have split.
Timberlake says he does "care about" the actress, but the couple felt they were drifting apart.
Taking advantage of a gorgeous Sunday afternoon, Justin Timberlake was spotted at the driving range hitting a few golf balls in the SoCal sunshine.
The "Like I Love You" singer looked to be in fine form as he spent some time at Lakeside Golf Club in Burbank, California honing his golf swing.
Looking as if their three-year relationship has fizzled out, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have reportedly ended their romance.
With rumors circulating that JT's already seemingly moving on with Rihanna, an insider tells Us magazine, "It's over. It was about a month ago."

Formalizing Process Algebraic Verifications in the Calculus of Constructions

Years of Citing Articles
This paper reports on the first steps towards the formal verification of correctness proofs of real-life protocols in process algebra. We show that proofs can be verified, and partly constructed, by a general purpose proof checker. The process algebra we use is µCRL, ACP augmented with data, which is small enough to make the verification feasible, and at the same time expressive enough for the specification of real-life protocols. The proof checker we use is Coq, which is based on the Calculus of Constructions, an extension of simply typed lambda calculus. The focus is on the translation of the proof theory of µCRL and µCRL-specifications to Coq. As a case study, we verified the Alternating Bit Protocol.

Ryan's been busy lately filming R.I.P.D. in Boston alongside Jeff Bridges, but has had enough free time to spend nights and weekends with ladylove Blake Lively. She was in the Big Apple this week, and attended the MoMA tribute to Pedro Almodovar on Tuesday evening. Things seem to be going great for the couple despite spending any time apart. Recent rumors suggest that they might even be hunting for a Big Apple apartment together.

"I am an activist lawyer who believes in honesty in politics," said Neda Bolourian, '10.
Neda Bolourian, '10, is running for a County Council seat in Montgomery County, Maryland. An in-depth profile of her was published on the Payvand Iran News website HERE and below:
Source:Public Affairs Alliance of Iranian Americans (PAAIA)
Washington, D.C.- Neda Bolourian, a lawyer in Bethesda, Maryland, is running to represent District 2 on the Montgomery County Council.
A first generation American of Iranian descent, Bolourian received a bachelor's degree in philosophy from the University of Maryland Baltimore County, a master's degree in international relations from St. Mary's University of San Antonio, Texas, and a JD from the University of District of Columbia's David A. Clarke School of Law.
While at UDC, Bolourian worked as a student attorney for an immigration law clinic as well as a low-income tax clinic, providing legal advice and negotiating deals for lower income residents of the Washington, D.C. "As the daughter of immigrants, working to help people achieve the same dreams that my parents had for me was an incredibly rewarding experience," she told PAAIA.
Bolourian currently writes, revises, and negotiates contracts as Associate Counsel for a financial services firm in Bethesda. A committed advocate for reproductive rights, she has also worked closely with women's rights activists to co-organize the "Summer of Trust" walk in Germantown, helping to protect access to reproductive healthcare for Maryland women.
Bolourian told PAAIA that she decided to run to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor in Montgomery County and to provide transparency to the people. "There is a huge divide between people's interests and their representatives in Rockville that is eerily reminiscent of what is plaguing Washington. I refuse to let that happen."
Asked about the issues facing Montgomery County, Bolourian said there are many critical issues, including climate change, income inequality, education, taxation, and transportation. A lifelong environmental activist, she said she also plans to ensure that the county protects Ten Mile Creek through the use of activism and the law.
"I am an activist lawyer who believes in honesty in politics. I want to bring a fresh, young perspective to the Montgomery County Council," Bolourian told PAAIA. "I am also energetic and ready for any challenge that comes with the office."
Bolourian will be challenging the incumbent and current council president Craig Rice (D-Upcounty).
District 2 encompasses Barnesville, Boyds, Comus, Damascus and Hyattstown as well as Germantown and Clarksburg, two of the most booming regions in Maryland. It also includes the planned community of Montgomery Village, Goshen, and parts of Darnestown and North Potomac.

Need I even put into words this idea? Or at least make something like it. I mean, seriously here, lol, how would that not work? How about Batgirl Vayne? Flash Yi? Hawkgirl Sejuani Martian Manhunter Rengar (obvious reasons) Wonderwoman Eve Green Lantern Malzahar Etc Etc
I think Kayle would be the better hawkgirl. And Sivir already had a wonder woman theme skin. Batgirl Vayne would be pretty cool though. Black Widow Miss Fortune would be pretty hot too, both are gun carrying red heads.
What champion would be Batman?? Seriously, is there any champ that is hardcore enough to have the title "The Dark Knight" P.S. (It's not Teemo)

"Watch Your Back - Politics Galore! "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Blue Coat Systems
It's a well-known company inside of its industry and customers like the products.
A lot of politics at Blue Coat. It seemed that someone was always scheming / manipulating to try to get ahead, making others look bad and too more energy is spent on playing politics than improving the products and services to customers. They often do random RIFs - and my guess is just so that it keeps the stock price from dropping.
Promote people based on merit, rather than how much they kiss ass.

I have been working at Blue Coat Systems
ProsCompany still feels like a startup, there is still the resemblance of a family atmosphere, but recent managerial appointments and an obsessive desire to be one of the big guys leave a very sour taste.
ConsIn some sections of the organisation, managers are caught in a loop, suggesting massive changes in order to 'make a mark', implementing those changes at great expensive and upheaval and ultimately innevitable failure and quiet exit, only for the next guy to have a go.
Advice to ManagementAdviceWhen the entire senior management team of company A takes up positions at company B, the culture and atmosphere of company B is going to disentigrate

a few bits of trouble
Firstly, the character moves very slowly, it seems to take way too long to move around the screen. Secondly, it seems that you could just intantly winn by tapping the same button over and over again, try adding things like combo moves. Finaly, once one of then kicks you, they all swarm around you and you can't beat them until you die, try fixing it by shotening the time it takes for you to recover from being hit.
Could do better.
Very nice graphics for a Flash game, but it' also VERY Repetative. The sound is okay, though the music can get annoying. Not as good as you Stay Alive Game.
pretty boring
i have yet to find a fighting game i like because they are all the bloody same.
Pretty good
i liked this game 2, 1 reason is because i was actually good at it, another cause of the great graphics. it found it kinda easy tho, once u get the hang of it. all i did was the jump kick over and over, lol. didnt lose any hp once using this "statagy" (misspelled that, i think). great game.
Very Good as well
This one is also well done. However, people don't always stun that easily. You might want to consider adding a grab button.

CLASSROOM SPOTLIGHT: Southside Elementary (VIDEO)
Date: May 27, 2010
by: Loren Mayo | Community Editor
.As they rehearse their lines for "Macbeth," fourth-graders at Southside Elementary talk Shakespeare with The Sarasota Observer.
Adrianno DiLorenzo, Macbeth
Who is Macbeth?
He's a good noble man, a good warrior and nobody can defeat him. When he gets word from the witches that he will become the next king, he starts to have murderous thoughts. He doesn't want to kill King Duncan, but he becomes obsessed.
Do you like Shakespeare's plays?
His plays show emotion, happiness and lots of different types of tragedy. He's just a really good writer — "Macbeth" is the best tragedy he wrote.
Do you like playing Macbeth?
I didn't like that he becomes obsessed with killing, but I really like being Macbeth because he's really cool. He is "the play." He shows emotion and what he feels.
Alexa Mollod, Lady Macbeth
What is your character's role in "Macbeth?"
I play Lady Macbeth and bribe Macbeth into killing King Duncan so he can become king, but we both go really crazy. We're seeing blood on our hands and Macbeth is seeing ghosts and daggers. I hatch the plan for him. I turn really evil.
What do you like about this play?
It's fun. You get to be a different character and my character is from Scotland. I get to be evil and go crazy.
Did you learn anything from this experience?
I learned that doing bad things to other people doesn't do anything. It isn't a recipe for happiness.
Wyatt Getzen, Malcom
What is your character's role in "Macbeth?"
Malcom is the king's son. At the end of the play, he becomes the king of Scotland. He's a very good character. When he finds out his father has been murdered he flees to England. At the end, his brother convinces him to come home and reclaim their father's throne.
You get to wear a kilt. What do you think about that?
It's OK. I didn't really enjoy it at first, but all the boys got to wear, kilts and I have my mom to thank for that. She also got us these man purses to wear around our waists called "sporrans."
Is there a moral to this play?
The moral is pretty tricky. I think it's not to be greedy or vicious. I learned a lot about Shakespeare.
Emma Venafro, Witch (chaos)
What is your character's role in "Macbeth?"
I'm a witch — an evil witch. All of the witches represent three things; chaos, conflict and darkness. I play "Chaos." We get to do a dance around a cauldron and say all of these different ingredients. It's really fun!
What do you like about this play?
I have the very first line. We get to prophesize and basically tell the whole play. We tell Macbeth what's going to happen to him. It's a really fun play. I like the "curse" because almost every rehearsal something happens and a sword breaks. It's really cool.
What do you know about Shakespeare?
I know Shakespeare writes tragedies, histories and comedies.
How do you like your witch costume?
Our moms made our costumes — they are supposed to look old and haggish. We have pouches to hold the herbs and we are the only people who get to be barefoot.
Ashlynn Rutherford, Witch (darkness)
Are you a good witch or a bad witch?
We're supposed to be mysterious witches! We tell Macbeth what's going to happen. During the scenes that he's not on stage, we put stuff into a cauldron and brew — we frolic around and have a dance.
Was being cast as a witch your number one choice?
I was stuck between Lady Macbeth and a witch. I love big parts because I love memorizing, but I also love dancing. I really wanted to do a dance.
What's your favorite part about this play?
Our dance, because the music actually says the lines from the play. It's fun to go around the cauldron with all of my friends. I like being barefoot — we are the only ones who get to dirty up our feet.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Definitely wasn't a Somali type attack. Perps claimed they were police
which allowed them to board the ship. All they had was a little rubber
dinghy, so i doubt they were going after any bulky cargo. Ship crews
have lots of valuables on them, though, like cash, electronics, etc. It
could have been just a standard robbery. Posey is going to look into
these cases some more.

I can't believe this was a Somalia-type pirate attack where the hold

Not common at all. This is strange because there were reports of
another Russian ship being handled the same way (police

weeks ago. We're checking to see if there are any links between the
two incidents.

Russian Navy sends out alerts over disappearance of vessel Arctic Sea
MOSCOW. Aug 10 (Interfax) - Russia's Navy is carefully analyzing
the situation surrounding the vessel Arctic Sea, which is believed to
have gone missing off Portugal's coast in the Atlantic Ocean, the navy
said in a press release on Sunday.
"Appropriate alerts have been sent to the navy's ships and
vessels," the navy said.
The crew of the vessel Arctic Sea consists of Russian citizens.
The dry cargo vessel Arctic Sea with a Russian crew went missing
off Portugal's coast in the Atlantic Ocean as it was heading to
Gibraltar, Mikhail Voitenko, editor of the Maritime Bulletin -
Sovfrakht, said earlier.
"It was supposed to arrive there on August 4. But the vessel
disappeared on July 28. Contact has not been established with it since
then. Neither its owner nor the relatives [of the crew] know anything
about its whereabouts. No traces have been found. All services,
including the navy, are searching for the vessel," Voitenko said.
According to earlier reports, on June 24, people who claimed to be
police stopped the Arctic Sea, whose crew included 15 Russians, in
Swedish waters in the Baltic Sea. They had come up to the ship on a
rubber dinghy, came aboard, tied up the crew, and searched the vessel
for 12 hours.
When they left the ship, the Arctic Sea resumed its voyage.
The Swedish authorities are investigating the incident.
"The attack story is getting more mysterious all the time. The main
question is why the attack only became known after a week. After all,
some of the sailors were seriously hurt, as it transpired. What was it?
What was being looked for on the ship and who were they? And the main
point is - where is it?" Voitenko said.
The editor argued it would not be easy for a ship like that to
disappear without a trace. It cannot, for example, sink without sending
out a distress signal, he said.
"One doesn't want to panic, but, on the other hand, everyone,
including the families, is looking for the ship. I've had requests for
information today both from services and from families," Voitenko said.
"It remains a riddle why the ship was attacked. Apparently, there
had been a tip-off, and someone believed there was something valuable on
the ship that was being carried illegally," he said.
The operator of the Arctic Sea, which was built in 1991 and was
initially named Okhotskoye, is Solchart Arkhangelsk, based in
Arkhangelsk, Russia.

Fallout 3's two downloadable content packs are to be released on disc at retail, for both Xbox 360 and PC.
UPDATE: Speaking to CVG, a source close to Bethesda has confirmed the news.
That's according to a report by Electronic Theatre, which claims that 'Fallout 3 Downloadable Content: The Pitt and Operation Anchorage' will be hitting shops worldwide on May 29 - that's just over a month's time.
Expectedly a storage unit is said to be essential to play the Xbox 360 version of the pack (as you'll have to install the DLC rather than run it off the disc) and the original Fallout 3 disc will have to remain in the disc drive to play.
£14.99 is the suggested price. We've contacted Bethesda for comment.
As for Fallout 3's next DLC pack, Broken Steel, you can read all about that here.

could you good people explain, what set up you need to use a wireless printer. e.g does the printer have to be connected to a desktop/laptop to be able to use the printer from a different pc/laptop? I have got broadband router ect.

"Is it a present for yourself" When my son visits us he usually brings some office work to do,that means printing,and always moans about having to keep going upstairs switching the pc on,just to print a few sheets off!I too get the same feeling. The printer that I have I mainly use for photos,so I thought of may be getting a wireless printer that could be placed in the hallway which is where the router is and would be handy for myself for printing documents from the laptop which I use downstairs. Killing 2 birds with one stone so to say. So yes it will be a "present for my self",if only for a quiet life. I have seen a couple of cheapish Canon all in ones,that may fit the bill. Your thoughts please.

I have had a couple of Epsom printers in the past and they were forever clogging up. I have been using a Canon 5200pixma (photo printer)for the last few years and have been satisfied with it. So thought I would stick with Canon. Been thinking that an All in One, may be a bit large, so recommendations please for a good/cheapish Canon printer for general use,if there is such a thing!

This tasty bread is not too sweet, very nice toasted, buttered, and served with a hot cup of tea. Barmbrack is the centre of an Irish Halloween custom. The Halloween Brack traditionally contained various objects baked into the bread and was used as a sort of fortune-telling game. In the barmbrack were: a pea, a stick, a piece of cloth, a small coin (originally a silver sixpence) and a ring. Each item, when received in the slice, was supposed to carry a meaning to the person concerned: the pea, the person would not marry that year; the stick, would have an unhappy marriage or continually be in disputes; the cloth or rag, would have bad luck or be poor; the coin, would enjoy good fortune or be rich; and the ring, would be wed within the year.

After Pittsburgh's Brad Wanamaker hit a shot with 17 seconds left in regulation to forge a tie against Louisville, followed by Wanamaker and Gary McGhee both coming up with blocks on the ensuing defensive possession, many people thought the Cardinals would fold in overtime to a more experienced Pittsburgh bunch.
Think again.
In the extra session, Louisville scored the first four points en route to a 62-59 victory. In fact, if not for a moronic cheerleader earning a technical foul, the Cardinals would have held Pittsburgh to just one point in overtime.
The Cardinals forced three turnovers and allowed the Panthers to attempt just one shot from the field in the first four minutes of overtime.
There's only one senior on Louisville's roster, but the Cardinals demonstrated poise normally reserved for a team like Pittsburgh. Moreover, junior Terrence Jennings and senior Preston Knowles struggled throughout the game, combining for 11 points on 4-of-19 shooting.
The key for Louisville was its perimeter trio of sophomores Peyton Siva and Mike Marra, and junior Kyle Kuric. Kuric had 12 points, including a 3-pointer and clinching dunk in overtime; Marra went for 11 points, knocking down timely shots; and Siva finished with 14 points and three assists.
Heading into March, the Cardinals are starting to turn some of their detractors into believers. On short notice, they are going to be a difficult team to face, due to their pressure defense and half-court zone defense. Offensively, they are nearly impossible to stop when their 3-pointers are falling. Additionally, Siva is a player who can create shots at the end of games – something that every successful NCAA Tournament needs.
Most importantly, their young players are developing into battle-tested players who show composure when it matters.
