The Entourage movie isn't even out until this summer, but Adrian Grenier and Mark Wahlberg already have big plans for the sequel.Read Full Story
The antics of Vincent Chase and his boys have come to a close -- for now. A movie could still happen, but the HBO days are over. Before the Entourage posse could leave the building, SheKnows caught up with Adrian Grenier. The hunky actor, documentary maker and activist looks back at seven seasons as Hollywood player Vinny, and looks forward to what comes next.Read Full Story
HBO's Entourage is in its last season, and we're in mourning — seeing cutie Adrian Grenier every Sunday night was a date we always looked forward to. Today, we're paying homage to this dark-and-sexy star (specifically those blue eyes and wild, curly locks) and looking forward to the upcoming Entourage movie (yep, it's official!).Read Full Story
The Entourage posse came to the TCA Press Tour to talk about their final season, but all anyone wanted to hear about was Entourage, the movie. Nothing is written in stone or even in the air, but exec producer Mark Wahlberg and show creator Doug Ellin are ready to make it happen.Read Full Story
Entourage producer Mark Wahlberg has offered to finance a feature film version of the successful HBO series about the day to day life of a young actor in Hollywood and his inner circle of friends, brought over from their hometown of Queens, NY. After seeing the success of the Sex and the City movie franchise, Walhberg is taking a big gamble on translating his story to the big screen.Read Full Story

English Rock Band
1. The Power Of One - Donna Summer (5/5)
Donna Summer's really delivers a great theme for the Pokemon movie. The vocals, music, message, everything about this song is top-rate. Let's hope this song is played in the Pokemon movie so many people will get the chance to hear it.
2. The Legend Comes To Life - From "The Power Of One" Score(5/5)
This is a great score! Very calm, very smoth, very good! I can't wait to pick up the Pokemon movie score.
So even though these songs are from Pokemon, because the songs are so sweat and moving, I don't think you'll notice what the songs are from after awhile!!!
What did you think of this review?

50:0327(52)AR - - Intl. Assoc. of Firefighters, Local F-89 and Army, HQ, Fort Sam Houstom, Fort Sam Houston, TX - - 1995 FLRAdec AR - - v50 p327
[ v50 p327 ]
The decision of the Authority follows:
50 FLRA No. 52
April 7, 1995
Before the Authority: Phyllis N. Segal, Chair; Tony Armendariz and Pamela Talkin, Members.
I. Statement of the Case
This matter is before the Authority on exceptions to an award of Arbitrator Fallon W. Bentz filed by the Union under section 7122(a) of the Federal Service Labor-Management Relations Statute (the Statute) and part 2425 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations. The Agency filed an opposition to the Union's exceptions.
The Arbitrator sustained the grievance over the suspension of the grievant. As a remedy, the Arbitrator ordered that the grievant be made whole for any loss of pay or benefits, but did not award attorney fees or compensatory damages.
The Union contends that the award is deficient because it did not award compensatory damages and attorney fees. We find that the Union fails to establish that the award is deficient under section 7122(a) of the Statute. Accordingly, we deny the Union's exceptions.
II. Arbitrator's Award
The grievant was suspended for unauthorized possession of government property. He filed a grievance over the suspension, and the grievance was submitted to arbitration on the issue of whether the suspension was for just cause.
The Arbitrator sustained the grievance on the ground that the suspension was not for just cause. As a remedy, the Arbitrator ordered that the grievant be made whole for any loss of pay or benefits as a result of the suspension.
III. Exceptions
A. Union's Contentions
The Union contends that the award is contrary to the Back Pay Act, 5 U.S.C. § 5596, and the Civil Rights Act of 1991, 42 U.S.C. § 1981a. The Union claims that the award is inconsistent with the Back Pay Act because it fails to award attorney fees and is contrary to the Civil Rights Act of 1991 because it fails to award the grievant compensatory damages.
B. Agency's Opposition
The Agency contends that section 2429.5 of the Authority's Rules and Regulations bars the Union from raising the issues of attorney fees and compensatory damages because the Union did not raise those issues before the Arbitrator. Alternatively, the Agency contends that the failure to award fees and compensatory damages is not contrary to law.
IV. Analysis and Conclusions
Under section 2429.5 of our Rules and Regulations, we will not consider issues that could have been, but were not, presented to the arbitrator. E.g., U.S. Department of the Army, U.S. Army Aberdeen Proving Ground, Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland and International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, Local Lodge 2424, 49 FLRA 950, 954 (1994) (APG). There is no indication in the record before us that the Union argued to the Arbitrator, as it has in its exception, that the grievant suffered "irrefutable harm; emotional, physical, and mental anguish, and has had to consult with a licensed mental health counselor" as a result. Exceptions at 2. Clearly, the issue of whether the grievant had suffered harm for which he was entitled to be compensated could have, and should have, been presented to the Arbitrator. Accordingly, we will not consider the issue, and we deny the Union's exception. See id.
Applicable regulations require that in order to be awarded attorney fees by an arbitrator, a request for fees must be presented to the arbitrator, who must provide the employing agency with an opportunity to respond to the request. Allen Park Veterans Administration Medical Center and American Federation of Government Employees, Local 933, 34 FLRA 1091, 1104-05 (1990) (discussing 5 C.F.R. part 550, subpart H) (Allen Park). There is no indication in the record before us that the Union requested the Arbitrator to award it attorney fees. As the issue of attorney fees must be, but was not, presented to the Arbitrator, we will not consider the issue, and we deny the Union's exception. See APG, 49 FLRA at 954.
In denying this exception, we note that unlike the issue of compensatory damages, nothing prevents the Union from filing a request for an award of attorney fees with the Arbitrator within a reasonable period of time after the date of this decision. See Allen Park, 34 FLRA at 1104-05; Philadelphia

Sharps is a producer and DJ from west coast Canada who writes bass music. His sound spans from global bass to psychedlic hip hop to dancehall rave. No novice to the scene, Sharps has over a decade of production under his belt, first gaining cross-border recognition from some of his early hits like Nightwork and his viral remix of Ginuwine's Pony. During his career he has produced a full-length album, 10 EPs, numerous compilation appearances, collaborations, and one off tracks. Highlights of his DJ career have included performances in London UK, San Francisco, Black Rock City, Austin TX, Montreal QC, alongside Tipper, DJ Aphrodite, Freq Nasty, Ill Gates, Dov, Vibe Squad, Kraddy, Mad Zach to name a few.
Check out Sharps' beats on soundcloud
Sharps began writing beats nearly two decades ago, originally inspired by the raves and IDM of the time, and cut his teeth DJing and producing in his original hometown of Edmonton AB. Rooted in the cuting edge underground music culture, he eventually broke onto the international scene with a series of large tunes including Nightwork, Girl Sweat and his remix of Ginuwine's Pony. Around 2009 these early hits gained him some real exposure from plays by Mat the Alien, Robb G, Drop the Lime, and Bassnectar, who dropped "My Little Pony" at Shambhala's Village stage that year. This moment of minor glory brought him to Black Rock playa for his first burningman in 2009, where he experienced what every producer must hope for: everyone was dropping his tunes on the playa, and he fluked out with a DJ set alongside the venerable Tipper. In 2010 he joined forces with the glitch/bass imprint, Muti Music for his release of Bad Sister - a four track EP of heavy bass tunes that cracked the charts on Beatport, Addictech and Juno.
2011-2013 saw the birth of his two sons, and more trips out to the desert for burningman, some clubs in San Francisco and Vancouver, and False Profit's most lovely festival, Priceless. In 2013 he had the pleasure to play one of the most memorable sets of his career on the Sugarcubes sculpture for False Profit's legendary Tuesday Night party. Other fine stages he has had the honour to play include Camp Questionmark, Root Society and The Phage,
His most recent EP "Sandpaper and Velvet", was released early 2015, and is available on bandcamp and other outlets.
Sharps currently resides in Vancouver, BC.

Unseasonably cold temperatures are setting back the growth of area grain and market animals.
Grain farmer Frank McConnell and his brothers work during the winter season on getting their equipment ready for the summer at their Wellington Township homestead.
"We don't do anything in the fields until mid-April, but it's not warming up very fast," he said.
The grain farmers look to plant as soon as the weather is fit and usually want to start planting before May 10.
McConnell and his brothers have to wait for the ground to be 50 degrees before the seeds start sprouting.
"If it stays wet and could further into May then you feel the pressure of trying to get things planted," he said.
The brothers have seen extremely harsh conditions before with three weeks of constant rain in June that flooded their crops, followed by a July so hot it dried everything out.
Most farmers have crop insurance that covers at least a percentage of the production, McConnell said.
He said the insurance is mostly for grain, wheat, and soybean farmers to protect them from dud years that could put them out of business permanently.
Nathan Joppeck of Fair View Meadow Farm has faced some very hard times during this brutal winter because his animals are grass fed.
"One thing that was hard for us this year is water for the animals, especially the cows," he said.
There is no water system in his cow barn, which forces him to haul water to the back of the property.
Joppeck does have a system set up that catches water from the gutters and melting snow, which then goes into the water tank for his cows.
"Most winters we have enough rain or melting snow that you don't have to water them as frequently, but this year it's been every single day because we haven't had the rain or melting snow," he said.
The Fair View Meadow Farm has 16 cows, eight pigs, six sheep, 125 laying chickens, and are looking to add about 150 more laying chickens, nine more cows, about 30 turkeys, eight more pigs, and a couple lambs.
The farm is on a 65 acre lot with 35 acres used just for the animals to graze on.
Joppeck always saves up a portion of his 35-acre pasture for the cows to eat during the winter, but the snow came so early that he couldn't finish preparing that section of the pasture this year.
"We couldn't really get the animals out on the pasture because it was so cold and the snow covered it so deeply for so long," he said.
Joppeck said the cows and sheep are pretty much strictly grass fed but get hay during the winter.
He chooses to raise his farm based on grass feeding for health and ecological reasons.
"The last couple years have been very good for us, we are growing and picking up new customers all the time," Joppeck said.
A big challenge he faces is that it takes him longer to prepare an animal for market than the average farmer because he grass feds his animals.
He said to finish out a steer on mostly grain products takes 14-15 months, where it takes him 18-24 months.
Even though Joppeck's finishing-out process takes longer than the average farmer's, it does not bother him.
One reason he loves what he is doing so much is because he is preparing his animals to feed families in the Cleveland area.
He said he enjoys building a relationship with the buyer because they are both able to get to know each other.
Joppeck even allows the buyer to come out and see the farm if they want too.
"My mission is to educate more people about this and we have a field trip coming from Brookside school district in May," he said.
A teacher is taking her class to see the farm to learn a little more about farming.
Joppeck is excited because he will get a chance to show students around and a lot of them come from an area where they have never seen a farm.
There's always a chance that Mother Nature could suddenly decide to be nice to farmers.
"It's a total swamp right now, then someone flips a switch and it's dry," McConnell said.

I give up: WinXP + AGP + ALi

Ok, so this may or may not help...
I have an ASUS TUA266 (ALi® Apollo Pro 5T chipset (M1651T and M1535D+)).
I have a GF2MX.
I have a Celly 900 @1Ghz+ (I forget the exact number, seeing as how I can't achieve the 1.2Ghz with it, I left it at it's most stable and forgotten).
512Mb SDR Crucial
Now did you go to the ALi site and try the AGP drivers (no, not for a video card, but for the controller)? They do help.
Just grab the integrated installer and throw the AGP and IDE
drivers in. But do NOT, I repeat, do NOT install the IDE
drivers separately.
I ****ed around with those badboys for 3 days trying to figure out why I couldn't use them. Each time, my system hive would become corrupted. And ONLY when I used those specific IDE controller drivers.
Umm, lets see, what else... I'm also using DET 30.xx (30.30 is preferred by me, then 30.82).
Have you tried throwing maybe Win2k Pro on it just for testing purposes? See if it's enabled there, or hell, even 98SE.
Well, tell us what you HAVE done... that way I'm not repeating things you've tried.

Steps BKEXEC Migration 2010 R3 A BKEXEC 2012???
Good afternoon, i use the BKEXEC 2010 R3 but BKEXEC change my version to 2012, I tried to import the settings, but when applying the task BKEXEC 2012 I get countless errors, can someone guide me on this important issue update version (UPGRADE).
Comments 8 Comments • Jump to latest comment
If you are going to upgrade to BE2012 on same server ,were BE2010 is already installed ,then it will be an in place upgrade. Were all your settings and catalog would be migrated when you install BE2012 on top of existing version ,please refer to upgrade guide link below,
If you have BE2010 on 1 machine and BE2012 on other machine and you want to migrate your all setting of BE2010 from one machine to other machine were BE2012 is installed please follow steps below,
To summarize this BE2012 is completely different version that older version of backup exec ,so it is different is design and working too, for example in earlier version use resource centric approach but BE2012 uses server centric approach due to which you will see job per server and not as like single selection and multiple servers selected in it. So to understand the changes in BE2012 please read upgrade guide carefully.
Don't forget to give a "Thumbs Up" or Mark as "Solution" if someones advice has helped you.
Thanks for the input that you want to install it on same server ,please check below link and when you open it on right hand side there is resources section ,which has few hyper link see if that helps ,I don't think there is white paper on this but this is main page for upgrade to 2012
Don't forget to give a "Thumbs Up" or Mark as "Solution" if someones advice has helped you.
It's quite simple:
1. Stop all your BE services, including the SQL service, and go to your BE installation directory. Make a copy of the Data/Catalogs folders to another location.
2. For good measure, stop your AV if you have 1 running...I've had McAfee cause issues during upgrades, specifically when upgrading the SQL Express portion.
3. Put the DVD in and follow all the prompts during the upgrade process. It really is straight-forward.
4. Once done, you may be required to restart the server. Otherwise...
5. Run LiveUpdate and install BE 2012 SP1a (or download and install manually).
6. There are a couple of additional patches, so run LiveUpdate again and install these on the media server.
7. Push-install your upgraded agents to any remote servers you might have.
...this is how simple it is
Alternative ways to access Backup Exec Technical Support:
OK, so the upgrade to BE 2012 has become quite clever. It will do most of the upgrade, and then ask you if you would like to revert, in which case the BEDB is reverted back to the version of SQL Express used by BE 2010 (or whatever other version you direct-upgraded from).
Sometimes this doesn't go according to plan, and an AV for instance will block a certain part of the upgrade (usually during the SQL upgrade...I've had it happen to me on 3 occassions). The end result is that you're left with an empty BEDB. This would in turn lead to an empty Data/Catalogs folders. The only way to get this information back is to recatalog all your media which can become a lengthy process.
Getting manual copies of the Data/Catalogs folders just ensures you have them available should something go wrong in your upgrade. You'd then simply reinstall the previous versions, stop the BE services and rename the newly created Data/Catalogs folders before copying the backed up versions to the installed directory.
Firing up BE would then show you your server's jobs etc. as it looked like before the upgrade started.

JONESBORO, Ark. (KTHV) -- A woman was arrested for shoplifting, and police said her children helped.
Jonesboro police said video surveillance spotted Latoya McKeown concealing items Monday at a Sears store.
Region 8 News reported that two of the children -- ages 15 and 10 - were also arrested on suspicion of shoplifting, and two younger children -- 6 and 8 - were also there at the time but did not take anything.
Kevin Stevens, a friend of McKeown's, was also arrested. He's being held on an unrelated felony warrant out of West Memphis.

CHENNAI: The new Williams JPH1 Formula Two car, which was unveiled at Brands Hatch in London attracted a number of 2009 drivers from all around the world, including Andy Soucek, Julien Jousse, as also India's Armaan Ebrahim.
Speaking after seeing the car run for the first time, the consensus was one of extreme excitement and anticipation for the first official test at Snetterton in May.
Andy Soucek, who has raced in Formula Renault 3.5, Formula Superleague and GP2, was the first driver to hail the new car: "Having raced in series like GP2, I was expecting big things from the F2 car, and it didn't disappoint.
"It looks great, and I'm really looking forward to proving myself in these equal machines come the start of the season. I will be pushing all out for a win."
Armaan, who flew out from India especially for the unveiling said "It looks very impressive and it's quick."
Armaan said "I just can't wait to get into it and drive it myself. The name 'Formula Two' has opened up a lot of eyes back home in India," he added.

Mumbai based Balaji Bullion has emerged as one of the focal points for the multi-agency investigations into the Rs 2,000 crore illegal investment and hawala scam in which former Jharkhand Chief Minister Madhu Koda and his associates are accused.
Official sources said the Enforcement Directorate team, which was in Mumbai to examine records of some of the alleged front companies of Mr. Koda and his men, has found "discrepancies" in the documents of the firm.
Sources said the firm, which is into the business of import and export of gold and diamond jewellery, is also under the scanner of the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence for the same irregularities.
They said though the company was formed years ago, Mr. Koda's close associates- Arvind Vyas, Manoj Punamiya and Lalit Jain beside others- had become part of its board by acquiring major stake in it when the former CM was in power.
Investigations are also on to find out the authenticity of the export and import as shown in the record books of the firm.
The sources said it is suspected that fake invoices could have been made to route the multi-crore hawala money of Mr. Koda and his partners, who have been booked under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act.
Keywords: Madhu Koda, Balaji Bullion, hawala scam, Enforcement Directorate, Income Tax Department, Prevention of Money Laundering Act.

Here is new information about a story you saw first on News 8.
A single gun has been linked to the fatal shooting of a U.S. federal agent in Mexico and American investigators have now tied that weapon to Lancaster, Texas.
The Department of Justice isn't releasing any information on this case, but News 8 has learned that a high-powered 7.62mm gun purchased in North Texas is connected to the ambush that killed Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agent Jamie Zapata and wounded his partner.
On Monday, vederal agents stormed a residence in Lancaster.
I heard a couple of those air grenades go off, said a neighbor, who watched as agents arrested Otilio and Ranferi Osorio.
They also took Kelvin Morrison into custody, who lives next door.
Federal agents said the men would purchase weapons legally at gun shows and gun stores. But then, they would allegedly sell them illegally to Mexican drug cartels.
We believe they have their own firearms trafficking organizations, individuals here to purchase guns for these organizations, said Robert Champion, special agent in charge of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Dallas field office.
News 8 has learned that the three Lancaster men have been under investigation since last year for smuggling. An affidavit said they sold 40 weapons to a federal informant, but were not arrested.
Then on Friday word came the men were linked to a gun found at the murder scene in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, where agent Zapata was slain even though the weapon's serial number had been filed off.
ATF agents were able to make a positive identification that led them to a gun shop in Joshua, in north central Johnson County, located 20 miles south of Fort Worth.
The gun shop owner told News 8 the weapon was purchased legally and all the background checks had been done in accordance with regulations.
But that weapon ended up in the hands of a drug cartel in Mexico and ballistics tests confirmed it was the gun used in the death of the agent.
This is a typical firearms traficking scheme that we have been investigating for quite some time, Champion said.
News 8 has also learned that even though the serial number on the gun was filed off, agents used a chemical process called raising to restore the number.
ATF says Americans are recruited by the drug cartels to purchase guns used in Mexico's deadly turf battles, offering them $50 to $500 per weapon.
On Sunday, Mexico announced the arrest of two alleged members of the Zetas drugs cartel who they said are linked to Zapata slaying.
Breaking up these gun-running gangs is a major responsibility for federal agents in North Texas, but what hasn't changed is the resources they have available. The number of ATF agents working out of the Dallas office hasn't changed since 1972.

just curious how long this took? excellent as always
August 1st, 2007 #4803
It puzzles me that I have to enter your SB 2-5times before I can leave a comment behind.... anyways.
As others have mentioned, the colours you have chosen are splendid. And even though the eye is very striking, my favourite part is the upper lip. Don't ask me why, it just really appeals to my likings. -with all the uneven bumps and lumps which create sevral highlights and shadows. Just love it.
I must say, I'm also wondering how much (or little ) time you spent creating this fantastic surreal design-character! Keep sharing even though we all know you are busy settling in in your new surroundings---- Take care.
Work hard, anything is possible. I know, I know, its a very cheesy response but its true. Hard work and dedication is the key to reach your dreams. -Bjørn Hurri

hey thats pretty cool hurri, i like it.
i think it lost a little something from your last post, maybe make the eye on the shadowed side of his face darker and more subtle, looks a bit bright for having such a heavy shadow on his face

i like! HIGH FIVE!
August 1st, 2007 #4808
ok here it goes
Love the update on it, really. The whole head-design is splendid. the carapace (is that what its called?) was totally unexpected, but perfect for the job.
But the right eye (his left) seems a little bigger and unnatural compared to the other. Koppa also suggested that you tone down the highlighting on that eye as well, though I think it would work out fine if you just fix the eye's shape/size.
I also miss the more powerful reddish colour on the nose, which the first wip had... But that is just my likings...
Another thing is the "horns" (from the jaws?)... the ones on the right side (again, his left) seem "fatter"/ bigger than the other ones, I don't know if it is intentional, if so never-mind. ---a different colour on these might be good also???
Sorry for all the critique, next time I'll tone it down.

August 2nd, 2007 #4810
Björn, that's amazing! I can't stop watching that opalescent skin tone.
The only nitpick is the sharpen shadow on the nose. In my opinion is a little too sharp or a little too parallel to the face axis...
Your works everyday increase my lust for drawing ;-]
Sorry for my bad english...

Ser ut som en dammsugarförsäljare.
Eller inte ansiktet, det ser ju helt alien ut, eller tja.
Men den blicken "jag skiter fullständigt i dig men jag ler så mkt jag kan för att jag vill tjäna pengar" typ, fast han har inte minen. Eller okej, jag har helt fel, men något lurt har han på gång.
Riktigt snygg rendering (som jag vill kalla det) och färgen är dessutom mycket bättre. Gå och bli rik nu.

Hurri correct me if i'm wrong here, but to my understanding the left side of a persons face is not 100% proportioned to their right, do you agree? Still a bit exhadurated in that last one, the eye bothers but its still great!
August 3rd, 2007 #4813
koppa : thanks, yae i agree, need to change that, cheers!
Dan.v.D. : thanks
Hive_minD : great critique, spot on! cheers and thanks!

Yea! love the scans as always!
Like, omfg the whole design is frikkin brilliant! The torso is so sweet and elegant-looking. The shoulderpad isn't really working for me but the pose takes care of that. Love the deep arch on her back... -the "pet" is also perfect to finish the whole sketch. Colour it! please
extremely interesting character! the rendering is all that I could expect from you! -I like the forehead also, it reminds me of the faun's forehead designs in the movie : The Labyrinth of the Faun - El Laberinto del Fauno....
interesting character.. very eye-catching. would be a great digital if you work more on the design!
Wow... the pencil-work is just :-o
haha. "mmmm balls"
The creatures hands are the best of all. Your lines seem so confident. I bet you didn't use reference for them :-/
*drool* I'm praying you used reference for these! -so that you can share them with me to learn anatomy and different poses at the same time! (I searching for this kind of reference)
Looking at all your trolls really tells me that you ARE from Scandinavia
Thanks for the big update, I'm sure everyone agrees when I say that we really love them all!
I was also wondering. What pencils do you use. I've just bought a new sketchbook and pencils (B). But when I opened the sb the next day, many of the pages and drawings were dirty and smudged... unlike yours... How do you do it?

Diocese of Columbus
By D'Anne Witkowski
Originally printed 5/2/2013 (Issue 2118 - Between The Lines News)
Creep of the Week
Imagine that your mother has just died. This is, for most, a difficult, emotional time. Plus there's so much to take care of: funeral arrangements, notifying friends and relatives, taking care of the estate. Not to mention grieving.
Now imagine that you're a closeted lesbian at a Roman Catholic high school and there's one more detail to take care of: putting an obituary in the paper. Do you mention your partner's name in the obit? I mean, you've been a couple for 15 years. What could be the harm?
Well, if you're physical education teacher Carla Hale, it turns out that the harm is pretty great. Not only had she just lost her mother, but also she was quickly fired from Bishop Watterson High School in Columbus Ohio, after 19 years, for being a lesbo after a parent brought the obituary to the attention of the school.
Which leads to the question: how big of an asshole do you have to be to run to the school with an obituary of a teacher's mother in order to get her fired? Answer: not as big of an asshole as the administrators who actually fired her, but still, pretty big.
A statement from the Diocese of Columbus claimed, "Personnel who choose to publicly espouse relationships or principles that are contrary to the teachings of the Catholic church cannot, ultimately, remain in the employ of the church."
Oh, I see. The problem isn't that she has a female partner, but that it got published in the newspaper. Got it. The Catholic Church prefers secrecy, which is evident in their handling of the insanely huge and far-reaching child sexual abuse scandal. Priests who rape kids can be shuffled from diocese to diocese so long as everybody stays quiet. But a gym teacher is found to be a lesbian and we've got to keep her away from kids - not because she's been accused of any kind of abuse, but because her partner's name is Julie and not John. Good one, Diocese of Columbus.
Look, when you've got a record like the Catholic Church on issues related to sexual impropriety and keeping kids safe, firing a lesbian teacher is not upholding morality, it's sanctimonious bullshit.
Mind you, Hale is not an idiot. She knew that putting her partner's name in the obit was a risk.
"[Julie] asked me if I really wanted to put her name in there," Hale told the The Columbus Dispatch, "[but] my mom really loved Julie and Julie loved my mom and as I sat there with my brother, you know, it was like... his wife was mentioned, my niece's husband was mentioned, so why not? Why not the person I love?"
And we all know how that turned out.
But the story isn't over yet. After asking to be reinstated and being told "no homo," Hale announced that she is filing a complaint with the Columbus Community Relations Commission. In Columbus it is illegal for employers to fire someone just for being gay. There is also a Change.org petition asking for her reinstatement that has over 103,000 signatures as I write this.
For her part, Hale is trying to keep a positive attitude. "This is happening for a reason and I have to be supporting of all of those that are standing up on my behalf," Hale said at a press conference.
Referring to the outpouring of support she has received, Hale had a message for LGBTQ young people: "Hopefully, they're seeing just the support and the love that's out there, and it's reassuring them that regardless of their sexual orientation ... we all deserve the same equalities, and the world's changing."
Not nearly fast enough, but here's to Hale for finding the courage to fight the good fight and leave the closet behind.

Jack's Playground Volume 1 (Digital Playground) bills itself as "the first unrated, uncensored reality series." Actually, it's triple-X and about as realistic as your average episode of Alf. ("Yo Kate, where do you keep the casserole dishes? The cat won't fit in the toaster!") This is a classic "amateur" flick in new emperor's clothes. Only innocent buyers, unfamiliar with known actresses like Loni, could possibly be convinced the starlets are wifeys-next-door. But Jack's either halfhearted or big-brained: His deceit is so transparent, it's as true as one's view through a pane of glass. (A dirty pane of glass? Perhaps.)
(There's one particularly egregious cheat: I reviewed Volume 1 because the six to eight more Jack's since made were sent to me with it, and the cover of this one features Penny, a fresh-and-clean pigtailed 19-year-old that my reviewerly instincts told me held more stroke potential than your average nursing home resident. This is admittedly a personal gripe, but every lady here fucksKatya Kassin even takes it up the asswhile Penny Lame just rubs one out. Isn't that what I'm supposed to be doing?)
Filthy Things
Gypsy Woman
Appealing to the peeping Tom-Dick-Harry in each of us, Jack pretends to be a loser named Jack who pretends to be a music video director named Jack. This composite jack-ass invites women up to his bachelor pad or into a hotel room for an audition. Similar movies that you download from the interweb usually draw tension from the sense that the wannabe pinups feel pressured and even cornered; this is where Hollywood dynamics become problematic. Jack's attemptssprinkled with canned handclaps for pulled-off panties, scolding calls from his dad, and visits from "Cock-Blocker Eric," comic whiz and actual starleave little doubt as to what's about to happen and how, but are much more pleasant to watch on a metaphysical level.
Basically, just as the gal's unzipping Jack, Eric or another buddy drops in and seduces her. Katja Kassin plays a German au pair pulled off the beach who rubs an entire bottle of complimentary hotel lotion on her ass and tits; later, a dead ringer for one of Bellevue's wicked hot bartenders rips her stockings for easy entry. Loni wakes up with Jack in bed after a drunken encounter he can't remember (his cam shows their feet wiggling on the comforter). Eric shows up, refuses rather unfunnily to eat her out, then blows his wad just as she's about to ("Keep pumping, I wanna cum ... fuck!"); still, she gracefully asks Jack, "Can I taste your friend?" and Eric obliges, jerking onto her face. If only there were volumes of Loni's Playground.
Jack's lively and fun; Jim Powers is dead serious. His Filthy Things (JM) flirts with porn's Lynchian, self-conscious side, but his sex scenes quickly sweep away the niceties. The first performance I could do without: Crystal-Ray, a wavy blond, is hog-tied and ball-gagged in a man's power-tool-strewn bathroom. We watch in first-person as he pushes open the door and watches her moan for mercy, then leaves her there while imagining what it'd be like to give her one. S/M = fantasy, fair enough, but why put her there apparently against her will?
It gets better, though no less extreme. Flick Shagwell, accused by a hobo wearing a "Jesus Hates You" T-shirt of being a "whore of Babylon" and "sodomizer" fulfills her destiny when a well-dressed man enters her empty mansion (hubby's away on biz) and blindfolds her. "What do you mean you didn't send someone here to fuck me?" Flick, quickly losing the afterglow, asks her husband. Dun dun dun! Things get dumb-dumb-dumb when Hailey hears a scary computer-filtered voice give her specific instructions for a fantasy, in which she blows excellent bubbles on some guy's dick; in a surprising and strangely welcome ending, she jerks the voice's owner onto her chest. (Not as unbelievable as you might imagine Ted Nugent used his talk-box for the same purpose throughout the '70s!)
Finally, I hereby upgrade Julie Knight to Julie Queen, for her blowjob technique, an amateurish version of Belladonna and Ashley Blue's sloppy-buckets suck-off. She rounds off Filthy Things with the what's possibly the most disgusting scene I've witnessed, going all the way down on a dude until she pukes on the groundthen licks it up as he unceremoniously drops into her ass. Meanwhile, Gypsy Woman's (VCA) glamorous newbie Dana Vespoli could get by on her dark, big-lips-and-ass looks alone, but here she manages to civilize and sensualize Kurt Lockwood, a relatively handsome and therefore sometimes piggish leading stud. Dana and her "lesbian" Gypsy partner (they never share a scene) rob informal johns with Kurt's help, then clean out Kurt himself. Amateurs play professionals and vice-versa. And so, to Ms. Vespoli, I say: Get thee to a nunnery!

13 November 2013 14:26 [Source: ICIS news]
HOUSTON (ICIS)--US packaging major Sealed Air has agreed a $125m (€93m) deal to sell its rigid medical packaging business to private equity firm Mason Wells, it said on Wednesday.
The sale includes facilities in Ireland, the Netherlands, the US and Costa Rica.
However, Sealed Air is not exiting the medical packaging industry but will continue to manufacture medical and pharmaceutical films, it said.
"The transaction is another step in our commitment to a disciplined approach to portfolio management," said CEO Jerome Peribere.
"Our rigid medical business has a strong global position but no longer presents a strategic fit for us," he added.
Sealed Air expects to complete the divestment in the current fourth quarter.
Sealed Air's rigid medical packaging business was formed from three acquisitions: Nelipak Holdings, Alga Plastics and ATE Costa Rica.

23.12.04 - WBO World Featherweight Champion Scott Harrison will defend his title against Victor Polo on Friday 28 January at the Braehead Arena in Glasgow and has promised to make him pay for missing Christmas with his son. Harrison had to make one of the biggest sacrifices of his life ahead of his fourth title defence at the Braehead Arena on Friday 28 January - to leave behind his two-year-old son Scott Junior over the festive period..
The fearsome Glaswegian believes he has made the right move though by tearing himself away from his family to prepare at Spartan-style training in the mountains of Spain.
Harrison said, "That by far is the hardest decision I have had to make leaving my little boy and family at home over Christmas and Polo is going to suffer for it,
"I speak to my son all the time though and it will especially hard on Christmas Day when he opens his presents and I'm not there to see his face light up,"
"But in boxing, to become a world champion and stay there, it takes tremendous sacrifices and I'm willing to go through that to be the best in the division and make my family secure,
"I've felt the hurt and pain of losing my title (to Manuel Medina) and I never want to experience that again and it is driving me to keep hold of my title and provide for my family."
Polo, who is now based in Las Vegas, has a wealth of experience in his 40-fight career that has seen him challenge for different versions of the world title on three occasions facing Manuel Medina, Derrick Gainer and Julio Pablo Chacon. He also holds a first round victory over previous Harrison victim William Abelyan.
Tickets for 'Man on Fire', priced at £30, £50, £75 and £125, are available from Keith Prowse Ticketing on 0870 906 3839 and the Braehead Arena on 0870 444 6062

SAN ANTONIO, Texas -- The Taft High School senior prom inSanAntonio is this weekend, but not all students got a ticket.
Five hundred tickets went on sale in March, with the final 15 sold Wednesday. KENS 5 has learned 17 students have been left empty-handed.
They kind of just started doing a raffle with the tickets, said student Tyler Angel.
Some students said they already purchased items for the big night, but they're left without a ticket to the prom.
They bought tuxedos and limos and everything before they bought the tickets, so I guess it's their own fault, but everybody was just scrambling to get the tickets, said Angel.
A spokesman for the Northside I.S.D. said there's a limited number of venues in Bexar County that can accommodate a large number of students. He estimated 100 high schools in the area are all vying for a place at the same time.
Last year, the school did not sell all 500 tickets and yet had the same number of seniors, 550.
The Taft High School Prom will take place at the Hilton Palacio Del Rio Downtown.
Some students say there's plenty of ticket scalping going on, but administrators have not received any formal complaints.

Blues' young core stays strong
The return of a key prospect will pump up a talented foundation
Using the newly debuted projection system of Puck Prospectus, VUKOTA, Insider takes the temperature of players on every NHL team, continung into the Central Division on Wednesday with the Blues.
Summer Skate -- St. Louis Blues
A late surge was enough for the Blues to make a surprise appearance in the postseason for the first time since the lockout. Other than signing goalie Ty Conklin to back up Chris Mason, the Blues have not made any significant roster changes. With limited player movement, full, injury-free seasons from Paul Kariya and Andy McDonald and continued improvement from the Blues' core of young players are the keys to proving that last year's playoff appearance wasn't a one-time fluke.
To see which player could soar, which could sink and which could be a potential impact prospect, you must be an ESPN Insider.

makes sense for the BigTen to hide their newest members with AM kickoffs before the rest of the nation starts paying attention for the day in mid-afternoon
Ooooo early! 11am, that's normal kick-off time. Can't have all their games on prime-time.
Welcome to the B1G, Rutgers and Maryland! It's going to be fun!
They have such an easy B10 schedule this year, no excuse for not running the table.Hide replies
Well, if they had the same personnel as last year, I would be more inclined to agree with you. However, with as many question marks as they have, an easy schedule is no guarantee of success this year.
Great news. I like the 11 AM kickoffs that way it frees up the afternoon and prime time to check out big games around the country. Plus I'll be at the Maryland game, which allows plenty of time to get back home for those all-important prime time games.
On Wisconsin!

I'm a total nobble at this and I've spent hours trolling this board and others looking for the answer.
I've successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted my nexus one but can't get passed updating the recovery file.
Like I said. I'm a total Noobie. I'm presuming the recovery file is installed before I install Cyanogen 6 ROM
Johns-MacBook-Pro:fastboot johnlefevre$ ./fastboot-mac oem unlock
... INFODevice was already unlocked!
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$ cd
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$
Then reboot and placed the recovery-RA-nexus-v2.0.0.img on the root level of the SD card
Rebooted holding trackball.
Phone shows Fastboot USB highlighted in red
and Bootloader highlighted in blue
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$ su
su: Sorry
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$
Then I navigate to HBoot highlighted in Blue
and Recovery highlighted in blue
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$ su
Password: (enter)
su: Sorry
Johns-MacBook-Pro:~ john$
If I press the power key with both Hboot and fastback highlighted in blue I get a scroll of green text which rapidly scrolls and then disappears. I can see that some of the entries are saying incorrect or wrong image
This is on a Mac using Terminal. So what am I doing wrong? Any help appreciated thanks
