Australia rushes to troubled East Timor
East Timor's call for help Wednesday opened a new mission for an already stretched military.
Australian and other foreign troops were preparing to head for East Timor Wednesday after the former Portuguese colony issued an urgent appeal for help to quell weeks of unrest.
Intense fighting between government forces and renegade soldiers in the tiny island nation left two people dead and at least nine injured in the latest clashes. The government in Dili asked Australia and New Zealand to send soldiers, and for Malaysia and Portugal to send police.
Canberra will shoulder the lion's share of the deployment, and was planning to send a battalion of up to 1,300 troops as well as helicopters and armored vehicles. Three warships already on standby in northern Australian waters will also be deployed.
For Australia, this is the latest in a string of recent deployments to neighboring failing nations. While often viewed with suspicion by some of its Asian neighbors, small, troubled states in the South Pacific often welcome military intervention by the country they have come to regard as a mostly benign Big Brother. But Australia's willingness to play this role, as well as its increasing commitments to the war on terror, is straining its military.
"Things are very tight at the moment and they are certainly stretched," says Neil James, chief executive of the Australia Defence Association, a strategic think tank. "The nightmare scenario would be a serious law-and-order breakdown in Papua New Guinea. The Australian Army is just not big enough to even safely evacuate all the foreign expatriates there. And it's certainly not strong enough to put down any serious fighting."
The pressures on Australia's military - which includes some 52,000 active-duty personnel and 20,000 reserve forces - are growing. The country was among the first to commit troops to the US-led invasion of Iraq and now has about 1,400 military personnel there - miniscule by US or British standards, but politically significant for Canberra. Australia has also sent 550 troops to Afghanistan, including a special forces task force.

Crafts for kids are always fun, entertaining, and educational. This week's Kids Frugal Craft from Mom on Dealz is a fun learning game with a dog theme!
Don't forget to check out the rest of the fun crafts for kids I've posted. And if you love this, please PinIt.
Crafts for Kids: Doggie, Doggie, Where's My Word Family?
- Dog and Dog Bowl Clip Art
- Dog Bone Cookie Cutter (or do a Google image search and trace that)
- Construction Paper
- Plain Folder With Pockets
1. Using your cookie cutter (or clip art images) trace a bunch of dog bone shapes on construction paper and have your child cut them out.
2. Print 2 pictures of dogs (I found a BUNCH in Microsoft Word).
3. Cut and glue one picture on each side of the folder.
4. Label the sides with your word family (we did -at and -an)
5. Label each bone with words that will fit in each family.
6. Have your child insert the bone into the pocket they belong.
Educational Activities
- Math:Before we labeled the bones with words, I had my son go around the house and measure his favorite things to practice non-standard measurement.
- Fine Motor Skills: Having your child trace and cut the bones are great practice for these skills.
- History/Social Studies: A big vocabulary word taught in the lower grades is responsibility. Discuss this word with your child and brainstorm a list of responsibilities that would come with having a dog as a pet.

Blizzard launches real money in-game pet store {WoW}
Nov 4th 2009 3:47PM No, but it still seems contrary to their previous position and narrows the gap between WoW and an MMORPG I could play for free that's run on microtransactions. I'm not saying I'm going to quit WoW over this and I realize that you don't have the buy the pet. But having items that can only be acquired by purchasing them directly from Blizzard does feel weird to me and I do feel like the game loses a little something because of it.
Blizzard launches real money in-game pet store {WoW}
Nov 4th 2009 3:31PM This seems to go against everything they've ever said about not wanting people to have to pay fees on top of the monthly fee to gain full access to the game. Now they're going the route of having people buy non-combat pets, which isn't so different from the free online MMOs that make their money primarily through selling extras for money. I know that have the profits are going to charity, but if this was a heartfelt effort to raise money for charity, I think that all the profits should be donated to the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
It's a money making scheme in my opinion, not an effort to improve people's lives. Obviously Blizzard is a business and making money is what they do. But it seems to go against their own principles, which makes me uncomfortable.
Countdown to Wrath Giveaway: Day 1 - 60-day game time card {WoW}

Realms down for a three-hour maintenance {WoW}
Nov 12th 2008 10:54AM I'm not suggesting that they should predict the future, I'm suggesting that they shouldn't be quite so optimistic with their estimates. It's like people who give themselves half an hour to drive somewhere that's 30 minutes away in ideal conditions. They don't get why they're always late because they failed to account for possible setbacks like traffic.
Obviously, sometimes they'll fail to meet their deadlines no matter what. But when it comes to major patches/fixes, it seems to happen consistently enough that it's really just a problem of them not factoring in the probability of a setback.
Realms down for a three-hour maintenance {WoW}
Nov 12th 2008 10:33AM It seems like more often than not when they put up a deadline for any sort of major update/fix, they fail to meet it. Shouldn't they factor that in when they're giving future updates? Today, rather than saying it would take 3 hours, tell us it'll take 4. If they finish early, they finish early, but at least they wouldn't have to look bad by failing to meet their own self-imposed deadlines.

Jul 28th 2008 11:47AM How has combining Spell Damage and Spell Healing into Spell Power effected hybrid classes? Is a Balanced Druid also a capable healer in instances or is a Shadow Priest a good healer without having to respec? If you've done anything PvP wise (just dueling or whatever), have you noticed any balancing issues related to this?

diff -u: What's New in Kernel Development
An effort to change the license on a piece of code hit a wall recently. Mathieu Desnoyers wanted to migrate from the GPL to the LGPL on some userspace RCU code. Read-Copy Update is a way for the kernel to define the elements of a data object, without other running code seeing the object in the process of formation. Mathieu's userspace version provides the same service for user programs. Unfortunately, even aside from the usual issue of needing permission from all contributors to change the license of their contribution, it turns out that IBM owns the patent to some of the RCU code concepts, and it has licensed the patent for use only in GPLed software. So, without permission from IBM, Mathieu can get permission from all the contributors he wants and still be stuck with the GPL.
Loadlin is back in active development! The venerable tool boots Linux from a directory tree in a DOS partition, so all of us DOS users can experiment with this new-fangled Linux thing. To help us with that, Samuel Thibault has released Loadlin version 1.6d and has taken over from Hans Lerman as official maintainer of the code. The new version works with the latest Linux kernels and can load up to a 200MB bzImage. He's also migrated development into a mercurial repository. (Although not as popular as git with kernel developers, mercurial does seem to have a loyal following, and there's even a book available at hgbook.red-bean.com.) After seven years of sleep, here's hoping Loadlin has a glorious new youth, with lots of new features and fun. It loads Linux from DOS! How cool is that?
Hirofumi Ogawa has written a driver for Microsoft's exFAT filesystem, for use with large removable Flash drives. The driver is read-only, based on reverse-engineering the filesystem on disk. There doesn't seem to be immediate plans to add write support, but that could change in a twinkling, if a developer with one of those drives takes an interest in the project. Hirofumi has said he may not have time to continue work on the driver himself.
Meanwhile, Boaz Harross has updated the exofs filesystem. exofs supports Object Storage Devices (OSDs), a type of drive that implements normal block device semantics, while at the same time providing access to data in the form of objects defined within other objects. This higher-level view of data makes it easier to implement fine-grained data management and security. Boaz's updates include some ext2 fixes that still apply to the exofs codebase, as exofs originally was an ext2 fork. He also abandoned the IBM API in favor of supporting the open-osd API instead.
Adrian McMenamin has posted a driver for the VMUFAT filesystem, the SEGA Dreamcast filesystem running on the Dreamcast visual memory unit. Using his driver, he was able to manage data directly on the Dreamcast. At the moment, the driver code does seem to have some bugs, and other problems were pointed out by various people. Adrian has been inspired to do a more intense rewrite of the code, which he intends to submit a bit later than he'd first anticipated.
A new source of controversy has emerged in Linux kernel development. With the advent of pocket devices that are intended to power down when not in use, or at least go into some kind of power-saving state, the whole idea of suspending to disk and suspending to RAM has become more complicated. It's not obvious whether the kernel or userspace should be concerned with analyzing the sleep-worthiness of the various parts of the system, or how much the responsibility should be shared between them. There seems to be many opinions, all of which rest on everyone's idea of what is appropriate as well as on what is feasible. The kernel is supposed to control all hardware, but the X Window System controls hardware and is not part of the kernel. So, clearly, exceptions exist to any general principles that might be involved. Ultimately, if no obvious delineation of responsibility emerges, it's possible folks may start working on competing ideas, like what happened initially with software suspend itself.
The Web, Making Your Computer Obsolete
As a video creator, I often try as many different video editing options I can find. I've used video editors on every platform, in every style and every design. I never thought such a resource-intensive process would be able to move to the Web, but as is all too often the case, I was wrong.
If you are like me, you never even considered searching for on-line alternatives for video editing software. You might want to reconsider. I haven't had a chance to test them all, but a simple Google search for "on-line video editor" provides a ton of options. Most of them are completely free, and a few are rather robust. Jaycut (www.jaycut.com), for example, has a look that almost rivals desktop video editing software. Although on-line video editors haven't quite surpassed the abilities of their desktop counterparts, I was more than impressed by how far they've come. Because on-line video editing means you have your tools with you wherever you go, the future of video editing might look very different. It sure beats toting around an external hard drive full of raw DV footage.
As you read through this year's Readers' Choice Award winners, I'm sure you'll find a few items you'll want to learn more about. You'll discover a wealth of information about almost anything on the list at LinuxJournal.com. With more than 15 years of articles, you'll find what you're looking for, and maybe even learn how some of these tools have progressed over the years.
Head to LinuxJournal.com, and take the search box for a spin. You'll see all your favorites like Python, Nagios and Ubuntu. To get started, check out your favorite game, Frozen Bubble. Shawn Powers gives you a little preview: www.linuxjournal.com/video/better-solitaire-frozen-bubble.
Non-Linux FOSS
In our second Upfront installment highlighting non-Linux FOSS projects, we present SharpDevelop. SharpDevelop (aka #Develop) is an IDE for developing .NET applications in C#, F#, VB.NET, Boo and IronPython. SharpDevelop includes all the stuff you'd expect in a modern IDE: syntax highlighting, refactoring, forms designer, debugger, unit testing, code coverage, Subversion support and so on. It runs on all modern versions of the Windows platform.
SharpDevelop is a "real" FOSS project; it's not controlled by any big sinister corporation (and we all know who I'm talking about). It has an active community and is actively upgraded. At the time of this writing, version 3.0 just recently has been released.
Even if you use only Linux, you may be indirectly using SharpDevelop. If you use any Mono programs, they probably were developed using the MonoDevelop IDE. MonoDevelop was forked from SharpDevelop in 2003 and ported to GTK.
Delivering Content to Your Desktop with Miro
I've been a fan of Miro since it originally came out as a program titled Democracy. This open-source, cross-platform project has evolved over the years into an almost perfect example of how to watch on-line media. Miro can play almost any non-DRM video format. What makes it really unique, however, is its ability to retrieve fresh content automatically. It supports the traditional on-line media providers, like Revision 3, but it also adds the ability to subscribe to any RSS feed of videos or even torrents of videos. Miro will download torrent files automatically with its built-in BitTorrent client from any RSS feed you throw at it. Add sites like Hulu.com to Miro's arsenal of content, and you have an almost perfect video-watching experience.
Keep watching this project, because although there isn't yet an interface that's easy to control from a couch, that's a pretty simple change that would make Miro a candidate for your living-room television portal. As it is right now, it's a great addition to anyone's computer desktop. In fact, you can subscribe to Linux Journal's videos and have them delivered to your desktop automatically. I'm not sure if being stuck with my face on your desktop every week is a very good selling point, but at least there isn't a subscription fee. Everything Miro offers, including its software, is completely free. Check it out at www.miro.org.
They Said It
Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches.
—Steve Ballmer, June 2001
Will we interoperate with products that come, like Linux, from the Open Source world? Yes, we will. Will we encourage people who want to do open-source development to do it on top of Windows? Yes.
—Steve Ballmer, July 2008
Sun's doing tremendous damage to the project.
—Geir Magnusson Jr, referring to a Java licensing dispute between Sun and the Apache Software Foundation
Religion-themed domains could provoke "bitter disputes" that would force ICANN into "recognizing to a particular group or to a specific organization the legitimacy to represent a given religious tradition".
—Monsignor Carlo Maria Polvani, in a letter to outgoing ICANN chief Paul Twomey, concerning new Internet domains, such as .catholic, .islam, .muslim and so on, or as The Register called them, the dot god domains.
Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do, doesn't mean it's useless.
—Thomas Alva Edison
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

DAZ develops in-house content with its own staff and also brokers content created by individual artists.
The primary focus of DAZ's in-house content development is its line of elaborately articulated 3D human figures. The "Victoria" line of figures is the most well-known and has been in development since 1999. The figures can be loaded into 3D posing and rendering applications (such as DAZ's own DAZ Studio or Smith Micro's Poser) to be posed or animated and then rendered. In addition, a wide variety of clothing, hair and other accessories are available for purchase which can be applied to the figures to achieve different looks.
A variety of other support content is available from DAZ as well including such categories as vehicles, buildings, trees and plants, furniture, weapons, etc.
DAZ also develops and brokers a number of other 3D related applications and products.
DAZ originated as a division of Zygote Media Group, Inc. creating content for the application Poser. In December 2000, DAZ branched off from Zygote, and became a freestanding corporation under the leadership of Dan Farr and Chris Creek.
In 2007[update], the company changed its name to DAZ 3D to match its website and to better clarify its identity.
In December 2009 it was announced that DAZ had merged with Gizmoz, a developer of 3D face-mapping technology and 3D avatars for use in virtual worlds.

New Kids on the Block Thrust Their Packages and Tongued the Crowd at BB&T Center, June 22
Sayre Berman
Imagine a gauntlet of the most adored boy bands of your generation. Let loose, arrows fly from the crossbows of sex appeal, billions of little pieces of confetti burst from cannons. Pyrotechnics rain down from the heavens, representing the passion of the twelve men on stage. Imagine this dozen singers waging a war on your love.
What really happened at the Package Tour at BB&T Center on Saturday wasn't exactly knight in shining armor type stuff (although there were two Knights in sequined black denim jackets at one point). No, what seemed like the much anticipated tour featuring Boyz II Men, 98 Degrees, and New Kids on the Block proved to be a lot less thrilling than one would imagine for a line up like this -- but then again, this isn't the eighties or the nineties (we double checked).

It wasn't all disappointment and midlife crisis, but understanding why Boyz II Men were first up to play Saturday evening was no easy feat. The women in the audience were losing their minds over these guys and even New Times was pretty excited for a chance to lay eyes and ears on those smooth talking dudes from Philly. Boyz II Men took the stage at exactly 7:30 p.m., the very moment the show was scheduled to start. How often does that happen? Needless to say, it may have been too early as the stadium was looking a little sparse, though the women who did make it that early certainly filled the void with the same squawking you'd expect from a herd of thirteen year old Bieber fans.
Sayre Berman
Bouncing from center stage to end stage via a walkway, Boyz II Men were light on their feet and were just as poppy and respectable as they were in the nineties, though they now perform as a trio, and for just forty minutes. They did the dirtiest of work -- warming up the crowd for 98 Degrees.
What were 98 Degrees even doing on this tour and why were they placed smack in the middle of New Kids on the Block and Boyz II Men? As it happens, this was no mistake or misjudgment, though the decision for 98 Degrees to record a new album might be. And that is why the less than agile muscle bound quartet was given such a prime slot in this whole thing, a promotional tool for some comeback.
Sayre Berman
While Boyz II Men showed no real signs of the delusional midlife crisis we expect from a boy band revival tour, 98 Degrees more than made up for it. For a male pop group wedged between 'NSYNC and Backstreet Boys in the nineties, 98 Degrees did the best they could to make a name for themselves. The only name they made for themselves on Saturday night was "uncomfortable."
The number of times Nick Lachey shouted the phrase "Hey, ladies!" or even just the abbreviated "Ladies!" could make any woman with an even keeled range of hormones consider a sex change. But the crowd wasn't the hormonally stable type. These women were out for blood and 98 Degrees were just shameless enough to act as a sacrifice. But it didn't really seem like it was Lachey blood these women were after. The place thinned out even more during their set, leaving the four dudes on stage stripping down to their undershirts for a quarter of the audience. Their song "Uno Noche" took on a whole new meaning for them here in Fort Lauderdale in 2013.

Medical imaging such as X-rays, ultrasounds and CTs can help with diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of many medical conditions, from bone fractures to cancer, but they do carry radiation risks and patients are expected to pay excess fees, which can vary widely. CHOICE looks into the risks and fees, and busts some myths about medical imaging along the way.
For more information on Health practitioners, see General health.
Medical imaging is done by a radiographer, or a sonographer for an ultrasound. Evaluation of the image for clinical purposes is done by a radiologist, a specialty that requires a medical degree and further study. GP-referred imaging is largely paid for by Medicare, which has a scheduled fee for imaging services and provides a payment for each one. Patients may also need to contribute directly when there is a gap between the Medicare rebate and the amount charged by the provider, or in rare instances, where no Medicare rebate exists. If a provider is prepared to accept the rebate as full payment, they can bulk bill Medicare, cutting the patient out of the payment process and reducing both administration and accounting costs.
Discuss public and private options with your GP, but remember, regardless of the name on the referral, you can go to any imaging provider you choose. Public providers (and some private ones) don't charge a gap; however, out-of-pocket costs can be high, so shop around, and don't forget to check waiting times. A gap payment can be the trade-off if you want the convenience of a specific local private provider, with easy parking and no waiting. You can also ask your GP to request bulk billing, but be aware that many GPs will not.
The Australian Medical Association (AMA)'s suggested fees are substantial, with big gap payments to match. By contrast, the private providers' Australian Diagnostic Imaging Association does not make fee recommendations. CHOICE's provider survey for Adelaide and Sydney, using a CT chest scan as an example, found charges were nowhere near the AMA suggested fees. The AMA claims increases in its recommended fees keep pace with average weekly earnings and that the gap sizes are a result of Medicare rebates going down since 1998. However, we believe that other factors, such as efficiency from improved technology and economies of scale in a growing market, are also factors. We asked the AMA to justify their suggested fees in terms of changes over time in radiologist incomes, but it was not willing to provide this information. However, several industry commentators told CHOICE that radiologist incomes are "OK" – neither at the top or bottom of the list of medical specialties.
Around Australia, public providers are offering imaging services, providing bulk billing and generating income from Medicare. However, private providers say that hospital inpatient work gives public providers competitive advantages in economies of scale, while Medicare payments add a further squeeze, having stayed relatively static for a long time. CHOICE believes increased competition drives down price for consumers – as it does in many other areas – but acknowledges that Medicare bulk billing rates should be enough to fund on-site senior radiologists and a complete range of quality services. The federal government must consider whether current rates can do this.
[insert med rebates & AMA fees chart]
An imaging provider must have a federal licence and conform to rules if Medicare rebates are to apply to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These licences are restricted, but there are plans to almost double the number by 2015. Typical rules require a specialist referral and certain clinical criteria. Changes were flagged in the 2011 federal budget allowing staged introduction of GP referrals, starting with children under 16.
(MRI is best for bones, joints, tendons, the spine and brain tumours, while CT is best for the lungs and chest cavity in general.) Conventional wisdom has it that MRIs are rationed because they are extremely expensive. This is not true – the cost is 15%-20% more than CTs to a high-volume public facility (up to 50% more for private). The likely reasoning is that if, say, 25% of CT work went to MRI, the CT "shortfall" would soon be filled with "new" screening services, such as CT cardiac angiogram screening. The government is concerned about limiting health budget blow-outs.
30 Aug 2010 | It pays to ask your GP to request bulk billing wherever possible or to use a public provider.
18 Jan 2008 | In the last financial year The Cancer Council NSW received 3974 calls about skin cancer to its helpline, 2251 (57%) of which were specifically about skin cancer clinics.

Young Adult Hospitalized with H1N1 Virus May 7, 20094:00 PM Pair of New Cases Brings Maine's total to 12AUGUSTA – Maine's first probable H1N1 case requiring hospitalization was identified late Thursday afternoon. Dr. Dora Anne Mills of the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention said the patient is a young adult from Cumberland County with underlying chronic illness and is one of two newly identified H1N1 patients in Maine, the other being a student who attends Bridgton Academy. "As we continue to see H1N1 spread, it is not surprising to see an increase in severity,'' Mills said. "However, the key messages remain the same – if you have a fever with respiratory symptoms, stay home for seven days after your symptoms begin or until you have been symptom-free for 24 hours. Proper respiratory etiquette remains a critical component of reducing the spread of H1N1 and we all need to do our part." Proper respiratory etiquette includes the following steps:
In Maine, there are now 12 people identified with H1N1: four adults and one youth in York County; three adults in Kennebec County one young adult and two youths in Cumberland County and one youth in Penobscot County. Mills said that as the infection spreads, the number of people identified with H1N1 becomes less meaningful. "We've conducted about 1,000 tests and we know that H1N1 is here in Maine,'' Mills said. "Unless the test results would change treatment, we are not always recommending testing. Suspicious cases do not need to be tested so long as they are in a low-risk group, do not need antivirals, and those who have the symptoms are staying home." Mills said that H1N1 appears to be spreading more quickly among children, and asked that parents be vigilant about keeping their children at home when ill – especially if they have respiratory symptoms accompanied by a fever. There has been confusion resulting from terminology used to describe cases of H1N1. In some instances, cases have been called "confirmed" or "probable." A probable case means that tests performed by Maine CDC show a person has H1N1. Probable cases are then sent to U.S. CDC for final confirmation. As the number of cases increases, U.S. CDC is unlikely to verify every occurrence of the H1N1 virus. The U.S. CDC has confirmed four cases in Maine – all in York County. Maine's current allocation for the federal Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) antiviral medications and personal protection equipment (PPE) has been placed at nine pre-defined regional distribution hospitals. A system for request and distribution of emergency medications has been in place for sometime and was developed in partnership with the hospitals, Maine CDC and the Northern New England Poison Center.

Heya folks!
I host a moderately popular YouTube channel dedicated to Let's Plays and other gaming commentaries, primarily for strategy and sim games. I've recently started a project in which I will be playing through a series of four Paradox games in order to experience a single contiguous slice of history: Crusader Kings II (11th-15th century), Europa Universalis III (15th-19th century), Victory II (19th-20th century), and Hearts of Iron III (20th century). It will be slightly out of order, as CK2 wasn't out when the project started.
These games will be streamed live (http://twitch.tv/quill18), then posted on YouTube (http://youtube.com/quill18).
The EU3 (England) campaign is complete, and is being posted to this playlist: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL643FF17A29C05991
The CK2 (Castille) campaign is in progress and the next live stream will be later this week. Videos will start appearing on YouTube once all the EU3 content is online. I'm currently taking suggestions for which nation to play in Victoria 2 (http://towerdive.com/2012/02/27/who-...in-victoria-2/).
-- quill18
P.S. Despite owning ALL THE PARADOX GAMES, I've never really dedicated myself to them before and I'm still extremely noob. Any advice is immensely appreciated.

I am researching the Tilley family from Durham County (previously Orange County), North Carolina. My grandfather was Arthur Kermit Tilley, first son of Floyd Tilley and Rosa Watson, born February 24, 1907, died December 13, 1997. He married Frances Egda Woods, born March 11, 1908, died November 22, 1985, only child of John B. Woods and Ola V. Holloway. Floyd's father, Robert C. Tilley, also known as Pegleg Bob, born August 1844, died - unknown, served in the Civil War. He married Rebecca Riggs,born April 1851, daughter of Paul and Elizabeth Riggs, about 1867. In addition, I'm researching the Woods, Holloway, and Watson families, also from Durham or Orange Counties. |

Annie O. Waterman grew up in Northern California, about an hour north of San Francisco. She was always drawn to textiles, which likely stemmed from her mother's love for fabrics and interior design. Her father is an architect with an incredible eye for detail which clearly influenced her appreciation for technique and her obvious sense of artistic proportion.
From an early age, Waterman and her family traveled often, exposing her to different cultures and affording her a unique perspective of the world. While traveling, she was particularly drawn to traditional artisan work as a way to connect with people and this resulted in the formation of some remarkable relationships. Waterman later studied photography and ethnic studies, but over the years, she found herself connected to design for social change. "It just made sense and it was a way to merge all of my passions," Waterman says.
In 2007, Annie traveled to Peru with vague ideas of starting a business. Nothing was concrete until she crossed paths with an incredible women-run cooperative in Central Peru. The group is made up of about 80 women who are living in impoverished conditions and have been victims of domestic violence. After meeting these women, her direction became clear and she began to seriously plan her business. There was never a question as to whether she would run her business in an ethical manner. Waterman says she has to believe 100% in what she does and this was the only way. Two years ago, she officially launched Annie O, first selling belts through trunk shows and later indulging her love for design by developing a line of clutches, handbags, horn cuffs, alpaca shawls and more.
The design inspiration for her initial collection came from the floral designs and vibrant embroidery which is dominant throughout Central Peru. Waterman found that handbags and belts were most fitting for this medium and therefore has focused on the design of accessories. She works with the women-run cooperative in Peru that fueled her inspiration to launch the brand and in December, she will travel to Colombia to meet with another women's coop in hopes of a possible collaboration with them. Annie connects with cooperatives by researching the artisan work throughout a specific country, traveling to that part of the world, and exploring local markets to see the variety of work being produced. Once she finds examples of what she likes, she asks around about where it is produced. She says, "it feels like a treasure hunt which often takes hours of research, tiring bus rides, and a lot of patience, but in the end it is a fascinating journey that has taken you to magical places."
Waterman chooses to work with female-run coops because she believes in empowering women through social ventures. She wants the women who produce her products to have the opportunity for a better life and provide their children with things such as access to clean water, healthy food, and education. When business becomes particularly stressful, Waterman credits these women for infusing her with energy to march forward. Annie travels to Peru about once a year to share her sketches and create new designs with the women and feels this experience rejuvenates her and helps to keep her connection with the group real.
In Waterman's design process, her goal is to sustain the rich art forms that have existed for hundreds of years while incorporating elements of contemporary design. She and the group work with all local materials such as sheep's wool, alpaca and horn. The wool and alpaca is all hand picked from local markets and the horn is used for the clutch handles and belt buckles, supporting a small family business in the slums of Lima. All horn is made out of recycled material, which does not promote the killing of animals in any way and the horn accents compliment the embroidery perfectly.

"It was pretty good," Wallace said. "It was a transition for them to get used to me. I am just trying to find out who my players are and those sorts of things. We actually installed very little of our offense and defense, just trying to find out where we need to move players and that sort of thing. We just made it simple and hopefully, we can catch back up this summer and try to get everything ready to go for August. Everything was good. The kids are buying in, they just have to get used to my tempo."
Wallace was hired in February, after Ryan Herring left to take the head-coaching job at Oxford. Before taking the helm at Lincoln, Wallace was the defensive coordinator at powerhouse Washington County High School in Georgia.
The change brought excitement to students, and it showed in the number of players that came out in spring. Lincoln had over 100 kids out the first few days, but the numbers dropped drastically after the first week.
"We had 105 and we worked down to 70," Wallace said. "You are going to have that, the kids are trying to see if they want to be a part of it. There were some discipline issues, players missing practice and that sort of thing. I am going to be real strong on that and make them accountable for things that they are involved in with me. That took a toll on them a little bit."
The Golden Bears played an inter squad game last Friday. The Lincoln native said there are a lot of things that his team must address in the off-season.
"We have a lot of work to do with our offense," Wallace said. "This is probably the fourth scheme that has been put in front them in four years. It is going to take a little bit more to get used to it. A lot of stuff we run is one word type of stuff to make it quicker. It has taken them a little time to get used to the tempo that our offense practices. Defensively, they bought into it really well. I think it is simple for them. They did execute it, but it was by no means where they need to be. This is spring, so we have a long way to go to make sure we are in the places where we are supposed to be and make sure we are mentally prepared for the game. Physically, things are going to have to change; our tackling wasn't as good as I thought it should be. We have a lot of work to do there."
Several key returning players from last season's second round playoff team were not able to participate fully in spring practice.
"We have a few injuries, and they didn't get that much time in front of me as I wish they could have," Wallace said. The more I watch them, the more I see what they are doing. Today, they came and worked out and all they were talking about was next football season. They were like what do we have to do to get ready for next football season. I am real excited about that mentality and hopefully, that carries on through the summer and into August when we start our practices. I am real excited about this football team."
Wallace is looking forward to summer workouts, which starts in June.
"We have our weight program going on and we worked out this afternoon," Wallace said. "We have worked out the last three afternoons trying to get them ready for summer. I am going to give them off Memorial week and get back June 3 all the way to July 4 week. It has taken them a little time, but we have a real good front, but we have to find some depth. Once we find our depth I think we will have a good football team."

The Perfect Spring Makeup For Your Skin Tone
As the resident beauty expert for Barneys New York, Jason Ascher is the go-to guy for all things cosmetic. And now that the new season is here, he advises seeking out the makeup mode that's best suited to your complexion. Our friends at BellaSugar asked Ascher which fashionable new hues–like Zoe Kravitz's peach lip color–are best for your skin tone.
Try on pretty spring makeup in the Makeover Studio!
"Too much bronzer is a nightmare for pale skin," Ascher says. Instead, apply an illuminating cream, like Fresh Twilight Freshface Glow. If you must bronze, keep it light–Bobbi Brown Illuminating Bronzing Powder in Maui is perfect for a sheer, natural-looking glow like Alison Brie's.
Try on bronzer in the Makeover Studio!
For mid-depth skin, Ascher advises going light and creamy. "Light pinks and pastels [like Leona Lewis'] look great on this skin," he says. Brighten up with Nars Cream Blush in Penny Lane and Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Lip Gloss in Shell Pink.
Try on spring lipstick in the Makeover Studio!
For deep tones, Ascher recommends "natural nudes" that are close to your own skin, like Gabrielle Union. Many designers, including Michael Kors, D&G, and Vera Wang played with barely-there makeup on the 2011 Spring runways. Layer two silky shades, like Hourglass Visionaire Eye Shadow Duo in Suede, and get a subtle lip look with Armani Beauty Sheer Lipstick in 50.

Meadow Lake, located in White Lake, provides its residents with the quiet charm of country living and easy highway access to all the wonderful things that metro Detroit and Oakland County offer.
Only 15 minutes from Auburn Hills and Clarkston and a short 45 minute drive to Detroit, White Lake residents have world-class culture and entertainment at their doorstep! Concert lovers can take their pick of two incredible venues for live entertainment: the DTE Energy Music Theater and the Palace of Auburn Hills. DTE attracts more than 80 major artists each year, and the Palace is consistently voted one of the best venues for pop and country entertainment.
Those looking to head downtown for their fun need look no further than the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, one of the country's most recorded orchestras, offering incredible entertainment in its renovated Orchestra Hall. The Michigan Opera Theatre, one of the city's most precious jewels, enriches lives and fosters creativity by offering the best in professional productions from the grand opera, operetta, musical theater and ballet repertory. The Detroit Institute of Arts claims one of the largest, most significant art collections in the nation, with over 65,000 works that inspire and excite visitors. From mummies to Matisse, Asian antiquities to cutting edge realists, the DIA features the most renowned works of art in all media!
Did you know that sports fans living at Meadow Lake have several major recreational facilities only minutes away? Michigan's metro parks are all within easy reach of Meadow Lake, and the Indian Springs Metro Park is situated just down the road from Meadow Lake, offering 8 miles of paved cycling, hiking, in-line skating and jogging paths for our residents' enjoyment! How about taking on the ski slopes of Alpine Valley (25 slopes), Mt. Holly (18 slopes) or Pine Knob (15 slopes)? Each resort is within 13 miles of the community! Of course, if you prefer watching instead of active participation, Meadow Lake's proximity to Detroit allows the sports fans to head down to the brand-new Ford Field for a Lions game, the new Comerica Park to catch a Tigers game, or Joe Louis Arena to catch the Red Wings in action. The Pistons, at the Palace of Auburn Hills, bring more than their share of excitement as well!
No matter what your preference, every option is available to you at Meadow Lake! Why not visit the community today?

SALEM, Ore. – Democratic lawmakers in Oregon are hopeful that they will be able to give the benefit of in-state tuition for Oregon high school students living in this country illegally.
All attempts at tuition equality legislation have failed so far, but Democrats now have a majority in the Oregon House and Senate, and Governor John Kitzhaber has said he will sign the bill if it reaches his desk.
Currently, students who live in the United States illegally are considered out-of-state residents.

Okay, all you American Idol fans out there. What did you think of the results? Who really won American Idol? How about that finale? Don't get me wrong, I like Kris Allen, I just feel sorry for him. Not only does he have to perform that horrific song "No Boundaries" over and over, he'll have to follow Adam Lambert on stage every night for 50 performances and as we all know who have watched all season, Adam is a tough act to follow. Adam won't be locked into a recording contract for a year and will be free to pursue other venues - like the new front man for Queen perhaps?

Aside from my fav team not winning, what I'm truly sad about is no more hockey until October! It was a good run Sid the Kid, Geno and Flower. We know you'll be back next year. We'll see what free agency and the cap does to the overall composition of the team. Wouldn't it be great to keep them all? A shame they lost on such a bad bad goal.

Just returned from my evening stroll with the doggies and we observed a turkey vulture in the middle of the road but no sign of carcass. When we got closer to the site, it became clear what had the interest of the scavenger - a dead copperhead snake of fairly large size that had apparently been run over by a car. Reminded me to keep the pups in the clear when walking and on a short lead when traversing natural paths and be aware of your surroundings. This is where the leave it command can save your dog's life. Any vets or vet techs out there reading BT blogs - please post what to do if your pet is bitten by a poisonous snake, especially for those of us out in the boonies where a vet is 30 min. minimum away. Thanks!

Great playoff series so far with three game 7's in this round. Pens were the first to be victorius in the game 7 race, defeating the Washington Capitals. Made it a nail biter up to the last game where they totally dominated the caps. Next it is either Carolina Hurricanes or Boston Bruins. Have to root for the Canes to get home ice advantage but either team will be the Pens' toughest challenge yet. LET'S GO PENS!!!!

Hey all hockey fans. Thought I'd start a new thread for the Second Season otherwise known as the Stanley Cup Playoffs. We all know who my fave is but who's yours and who do you think will be in the finals? Let's keep this thread going through to the end.
My prediction - a three-peat of the Pens and Wings. Team I hope goes out first - the Caps, of course, but I think it will be Montreal in the East and Phoenix in the West.

Today marks the second installment of our new Packaging the Future series, which explores a greener future for packaging design, brought to you by Eco Chick founder and green journalist Starre Vartan!
Because I've heard mixed messages about the compostability of packaging labelled biodegradable, I figured the only way to figure out what works and what doesn't is to stop listening to rumors and try them out myself. My first experiment was with a Whole Foods deli container, simply because it was at hand; I shop at the supermarket in both Manhattan and in Darien, CT where the chain has recently opened its newest store. In an ideal world, I would make my own pasta, bean and whole grain salads every Sunday and store them in reusable containers for the week. In reality, I'm not the world's most enthusiastic cook and I regularly buy the salad-bar concoctions so that I have healthy, fresh food when I come home hungry at 9pm at night.

Five Freerange Bombs We Hope Jimpster Drops at Electric Pickle This Thursday
Categories: Concert Preview, Video
Perhaps it's a testament to his impeccable taste and A&R vision that UK DJ-producer Jimpster's Freerange label boasts a catalog of wall-to-wall quality cuts. What's more, Freerange has been going strong for almost two decades now. That's a lot of awesomeness for one label.
And it's no surprise, with beloved producers like Manuel Tur, Mic Newman, Tony Lionni, and Jimpster himself onboard. It's a roster with a collective penchant for exquisitely soulful, jacking neo-classic house. And Freerange wax can be found in the bag of almost any discerning house DJ on the international scene today.
With Jimpster throwing down at Electric Pickle on Thursday, Crossfade went digging into the Freerange catalog for some of the bombs we're most dying to hear.
1. Jimpster's "Change in You"
