After a punchy start, the political banners of a coming election across
Milanese streets and a leftist demonstration that leads to fire bombing
the news paper office where editor Volonte is quick to take advantage
of the story, this one weaves through what looks like it will be a
complicated account of class warfare but ends up being a simple minded
polemic. It's hard to swallow an editor personally intimidating the
guilty party into silence for his own purposes.
However this is the Volonte of L'ATTENTAT and INDAGINE SU UN CITTADINO, dominating the screen with a stops out performance and just watching him is worth the ticket price. Laura Betti, as the party faithful he makes look as if she has betrayed her cause, can go head to head with him. No one else stands much of a chance.
There is a great Morricone sounding score and expert camera-work - zooming down passage ways to provide menace. The use of a working newspaper as background is particularly effective.
These European political thrillers, of which Volonte was the mast head star, are a rewarding collection and should have wider circulation.
The film's main lesson is its realism, miles away from Hollywood's view of newspaper and newsmakers, even when it tries to be critical. The cynical newspaper editor's character (played by Volontè) is a brilliant and accurate portrait of the worst manipulative journalism.
..left out of the above is the equal condemnation of the left. No side is unscathed, I think the overall thrust of the film is that the victims are the innocent believers in justice. A very complex portrayal of the chaos and selfishness which imbue (Italian) politics. And, of course, each individuals complicity in the whole stewpot. I would add that the montage sequences date this film. Overall the cinematography is outstanding, performances excellent. The score and pacing satisfy. Not a traditional police procedural, but more of a character study. It is definitely a deft delivery of a construction that relies more on your faith in the film maker, rather than the presentation of a protagonist. I hate giving films stars, but how about 7.
*** This review may contain spoilers ***
Marco Bellocchio's indictment of the press as an opinion-making machine that turns the public into sheep is a bit in-your-face, but it's also a well thought out and well put together thriller. In Milan, when a young girl is found murdered, a highly regarded newspaper blames a trouble-making radical and whips the public and the police into a frenzy. The paper's editor-in-chief (Gian Maria Volonté) assigns idealistic cub reporter Fabio Garriba to cover the story. Garriba soon realizes that he too is being manipulated by Volonté. It's a brutal and frank movie that makes it clear that the established press is the enemy, fabricating stories, printing half truths and innuendo over facts. Volonté, well-known for his left-wing leanings in real life, is great in a role that has him representing the establishment as both impeccable and oily at the same time. He dons three piece suits, dines with the bourgeois and comes across as a pillar of respectability when in fact he is a lying bastard. Laura Betti gives a brilliant performance as a pathetic would-be radical cut down to size by Volonté. The music is by Nicola Piovani and Ennio Morricone.
Really good, solid, political film making from a new fave of mine, Marco Belloccio. Indeed this taut thriller mixes the murky world of newspapers with the equally murky world of politics. This opens with in your face real footage of early 70s street riots in Milan. Such is the ferocity and spectacle it seems likely that once the narrative begins there will be an anti-climatic lull. Not at all, Gian Maria Volonte stars as the newspaper boss prepared to do anything for his fascist friends and the survival of his newspaper. His cynicism and by implication that of the director knows no bounds. An innocent schoolgirl is raped, there is a clear guilty party but does it suit the ends of those in charge for matters to proceed as they should? Volonte is masterly in the role, as he was in the slightly earlier, Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion but he is aided here by more than adequate support from all involved. Thrilling, disturbing and very provocative.
Considering the sheer amount of (vaguely boring) movies flaunting their individual creator's extreme left-wing politics to emerge from Europe throughout the 1960s and 1970s, it is hard in hindsight to believe just how many talented film-makers were 'duped' into upholding such naïve ideals; that said, the other side of the coin basically equating Fascism was even less comforting and that more dangerous but it does make for rather intriguing (and ultimately more rewarding) cinema! Bellocchio's film, then, was one of a handful of titles to look at this alternative 'option': perhaps the most famous such example was Elio Petri's Oscar-winning INVESTIGATION OF A CITIZEN ABOVE SUSPICION (1970), which shares with the picture under review its leading man Gian Maria Volonte'; like that one and Dino Risi's similarly excellent IN NOME DEL POPOLO ITALIANO (1971), the film takes the form of a thriller both this and the latter, in fact, involve the investigation into the rape and murder of a teenager emanating from high society: here, a radical is accused of the crime and hounded by Volonte''s opportunistic newspaper for it but the guilty party turns out to be somebody else, ferreted by a reporter not taken in by his superior's wiles, who is pursued in turn (and even blackmailed!) by the unscrupulous editor. The movie paints a most cynical image of the press, beginning with Volonte' 'embellishing' and directing his underlings to shoot a fire that broke out at the office during a riot (he is seen making intermittent contact throughout with the politically-affiliated young owner of the paper, played by "Euro-Cult" stalwart John Steiner); later on, while viewing the TV broadcast of a talk-show he was involved in, the man even takes it upon his wife for her passivity and intellectual limitations!; however, the worst victim of his dishonesty is the uncouth schoolteacher (Laura Betti) he befriended in order to exploit for her affair with the murder suspect one of the film's best sequences is the one where she is made to confront her lover's fellow activists in the police station. The film features a good Morricone-esquire score by Nicola Piovani and ends on a shot depicting the rampant pollution at the city limits a metaphor for the so-called "yellow press" and remarkably similar to the finale of yet another newspaper movie, the classic FIVE STAR FINAL (1931).

error Module-nvkernel : file not recognized
I tried to compile new NVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.tar.gz
I use a 2.4.8 linux kernel recompiled with gcc version 3.0.4
after compiling (no error) I got the following linking error :
error module-nvkernel : file not recognized : file truncated
I guess this is because module-nvkernel was build using a 2.* version of GCC
any suggestion ?
must I reinstall gcc 2.*? :mad:
Check the md5sum of the NVIDIA_kernel tarball.
md5sum /path/to/NVIDIA_kernel-xxxx.tar.gz
Then compare what md5sum prints with the posted md5sums on the driver download page, and if they don't match, re-download.
Also try blowing away the directory and re-decompressing the tarball.
This most likely has nothing to do with Module-nvkernel being compiled with gcc 2, because it works perfectly here with gcc 3.2 -- as long as you're using version 3123.

New immigration initiative inspires undocumented Americans to DREAM
This morning, thousands of young undocumented immigrants became eligible for temporary legal status due to the implementation of President Obama's policy, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, which is considered the most expansive immigration policy to take effect in the past 25 years. The federal initiative grants access to work permits and temporary protection from deportation to undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children. They call themselves "DREAMers," and local journalist Matt O'Brien has been following the progression of Obama's immigration initiative closely for the Bay Area News Group. He spoke earlier today about the significance of the new policy with KALW's Martina Castro.
MATT O'BRIEN: Because this is an administrative policy, it cannot grant permanent legal residency – what we know as green cards or citizenship. Or, a path to citizenship benefits – that has to come from Congress. And the DREAM Act, which was first proposed eleven years ago, would have granted probably the same group of people more permanent benefits like legal residency and a path to citizenship five years after you get a green card.

Stop Discriminating
Jul 8, 2013, Vol. 18, No. 41 • By TERRY EASTLAND
In Fisher, Kennedy presented a version of O'Connor's opinion in Grutter that reflected what he had said about it in his dissent in that case. In effect, he edited her opinion, toughening it up so as to make clear that it calls for truly strict scrutiny. This is where the Fifth Circuit failed, Kennedy wrote in Fisher, for in deferring to UT in both its "compelling interest" and "narrow-tailoring" inquiries, it did not use the "correct standard of strict scrutiny," and thus its grant of summary judgment to Texas was "incorrect." If only the Fifth Circuit had known which opinion in Grutter to enforce!
Kennedy set forth what "the correct standard" demands: "some but not complete" judicial deference to a university's educational judgment about diversity, and no deference at all to—in fact, a rejection of—numerical definitions of diversity or "racial balancing" relabeled "racial diversity." As for ostensible proofs that the means chosen by a school to attain diversity are narrowly tailored to that goal, courts must not defer to but closely examine them. And courts must probe whether it is actually "necessary" for a school to use race to obtain the educational benefits of diversity. Courts must "examine with care, and not defer to, a university's consideration of workable race-neutral alternatives." And a university must actually demonstrate "before turning to racial classifications . . . that [such] alternatives do not suffice."
Kennedy also emphasized the need for courts to give "close analysis to the evidence of how [an admissions] process works in practice." In other words, an empirical approach is necessary. If that is enforced in the lower courts, the mounting evidence that preferential treatment actually hurts its intended beneficiaries (through the phenomenon known as "mismatching," for example) could undermine its basic premise, which is that it hurts only, if it hurts anyone at all, "individuals who are not members of the favored racial and ethnic groups," as the Court said in Grutter.
Kennedy set aside the Fifth Circuit's judgment for the University of Texas and sent the case back so that the university's admissions process can be reviewed under "a correct analysis." The appeals court will review the record in light of Grutter, as Kennedy has explained it, or order a trial if it decides more information is needed.
"Strict scrutiny," wrote Kennedy at the close of his opinion in Fisher, "must not be strict in theory but feeble in fact." Indeed it must not be. And in theory, it seems demanding enough to bring an end to the UT policy as well as similar ones used by other select schools, some of which, thanks to Fisher, may soon be visited with equal protection lawsuits.
But note well that Bill Powers, the president of the University of Texas at Austin, says that he's "encouraged" by the ruling in Fisher, and that the university will continue to defend the current admissions policy, which he believes "fully satisfies" strict scrutiny. No one should be under the illusion that the preference supporters located throughout higher education will without a fight stop discriminating on the basis of race—though it would be a victory for morality and the Constitution if they did.

We Are in Search of the Best Wings in Missoula for the Super Bowl
Here is a fun fact about the Super Bowl. Did you know that Super Bowl Sunday is the second to Thanksgiving on most food consumed? That is why I think that it should have its own food. Christmas has egg nog, Thanksgiving has turkey, and in my book, Super Bowl Sunday has chicken wings. So I pose the question, "Where are Missoula's Best Wings?"

CCH's CompleteTax Pro Lets Firms Profit from Do-It-Yourselfers
"Many professional tax firms have watched from the sidelines as potential customers have moved to doing their own tax returns using consumer-oriented software - increasingly, Internet-based software," said Bob Dias, senior marketing manager for CCH.
"CompleteTax Pro is a good example of the do-it-yourself approach to tax preparation, but it's designed to build web traffic for tax professionals, provide them with an additional income stream and create new opportunities to market their additional services and secure more profitable professional engagements," Dias added.
Built Around Proven SystemCompleteTax Pro is CCH's professional affiliation program built around CCH's proven CompleteTax online individual tax preparation system. First developed in 1998, the easy-to-use CompleteTax system handles federal and all state Individual returns.
End-users have access to a comprehensive online help system, including "Frequently Asked Questions," CCH technical support via e-mail and 900-number telephone support. For help with substantive tax issues, users have access to the online CCH Tax Guide for CompleteTax, containing over 500 pages of thorough, easy-to-understand tax explanations, tips, worksheets and other helpful tools.
Under the basic CompleteTax Pro program, firms simply provide a link from their web sites to a secure CCH server, customize the CCH program with their own firm name and logo and choose a price point for the service.
CCH handles the processing of all self-prepared tax returns and provides complete back-office product support, including program and data hosting on secure servers, automatic program updates and maintenance, electronic transmission of e-filed returns and all e-commerce functionality, including credit card processing and profit-sharing distributions.
Firms Choose OptionsFirms typically will offer CompleteTax Pro through their own web sites as a paid service. But CompleteTax Pro lends itself to other uses as well:
- Firms can selectively offer the service at no charge for promotional purposes or as a goodwill gesture for select accommodation returns such as dependents and students.
- Through sub-accounts, firms can also place CompleteTax Pro on the web sites of their business or organizational clients. The sub-account can be branded with the firm's or client's logo, and a separate per-return price can be set. Among other marketing possibilities, this allows the firm to reach through its clients to the customers, members or employees using the site.
- While firms typically have minimal involvement with the returns, they can enable an "Ask a Professional" link which allows users to seek help from the firm's professionals. Firms using CCH's ProSystemfx Tax can also import data collected from CompleteTax Pro into their systems.
"The bottom line is that the firm has control over how it fits CompleteTax Pro into its product mix and marketing strategy," Dias said.
Availability and PricingFor more information on the CompleteTax Pro affiliate program, call 800-841-8453 or visit http://www.completetaxpro.com. [2] A nominal set-up and maintenance fee of $195 is required when a CompleteTax Pro order is processed.

This poll is now closed.
Note before you vote: The poll is for graphics, not framerate. Framerate is part of performance, and in a totally separate category from graphics. Now while I respect the opinion that framerate is more important than graphics, this is simply not the poll for that. I had problems when making these polls in the past where people would vote for game based on framerate then argue in the topic about how framerate is more important than graphics. Like I said you have a valid point, I just don't want to derail the topic this time. I just want the poll to be about graphics. Thanks, and hope you understand.
So is this 'most technically impressive' or 'best looking'? Because if it's the former, the answer is a fact, and not something you can decide via a poll. And if it's the latter, several of the arguably best looking games are missing, like Fez and Journey.
Baseless prediction as of 01/04/13 : the next Xbox will be called the Xbox On.
Gee... I didn't think about it like that. I was thinking of graphics, but more on the technical side. I'm not that big an art buff so I wouldn't know how to make a poll about the best graphics from an artsy perspective. Maybe I should've named the poll "most technically impressive graphical game" or something. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll definitely do that if I ever make one of these again.
Poll fails, no Forza 4.

Uncharted. No question.

Aww jeez you ya got me. My bad. After working six years as a delivery driver I wouldn't go near a driving game with a 10 ft pole. Driving just seems like work to me, and not something I would ever consider doing for fun, let alone playing a game based on it. So I guess I'm guilty of not representing driving games properly, and the poll is a failure to those who do like driving games. That's fair. I'll accept that.

Interpersonal Expectancy Effects and Self-Fulfilling Prophecies
Everyone knows about the Pygmalion effect — that expectations bring self-fulfilling prophecies. But, as far as teachers' expectations in the classroom, Robert Rosenthal proved it.
Robert Rosenthal is currently a distinguished Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Riverside, and Professor Emeritus from Harvard. His classic research, with Leonore Jacobson, demonstrated that labeling particular students as "bloomers" or "gifted" resulted in teachers' perceptions of intellectual growth and development, while in reality the students had been labeled at random. This expectancy advantage can be applied in many areas, such as productivity improvement, employee commitment, and resource integration.
Robert Rosenthal is the recipient of many awards including the Distinguished Scientific Award for Applications of Psychology, APA, 2002; Professor of the Year Award, 2000-01; James McKeen Cattell Award, American Psychological Society, 2001; and Distinguished Scientist Award, Society of Experimental Social Psychology, 1996.
Professor Rosenthal's visit is sponsored by the Kravis Leadership Institute, and he is the KLI Leadership Students' Choice to speak on campus this year. His talk on "Interpersonal Expectancy Effects and Self-Fulfilling Prophecies" is part of the KLI Series on Governance and Accountability In 21st Century Organizations.

text: We stayed in a 2bdr-2 bath with a great view overlooking the lake. Very clean and spacious. Great amenities, cozy log cabin feel lobby and the staff was gracious and very helpful. It was great having access to the bigger Waterparks at the other Wilderness facilities, but this was by far our favorite Wilderness. The smaller scale waterpark was definately quieter and much more relaxing and easier to keep an eye on the kiddo's. We will definately be back to create more precious family memories our daughter can't stop talking about! Great place to come in the winter for sure!

Well ladies it has been a long and stressful couple days. I went into L&D thursday afternoon for pressure and back pain. I was in labor. It had been going on since 9 am and I went in at 1:30. They gave me some meds to try to stop the labor. During several contractions, my baby A, Alexis, was having major heart decelerations. I was admitted immediately. They finally got labor stopped at 4 am. I am 1 cm dilated and now soft. I am 28 weeks tomorrow. This was extremely scary. We had to meet with the neonatologist and it was so scary. Thank God the labor stopped.
The biggest issue is the babies heart rates are still decelerating. Before I was released we did 3 NST and they failed the first 2 and barely passed the last 1. I have to follow up with my MFM Monday. I am anxious to hear what my doc is going to say. I am pretty sure a Csection is now a must for me as my girls couldn't even handle these contractions and they weren't that intense.
So I am home on strict bedrest. I stayed strong in the hospital but now I have been crying a lot today just thinking that these girls are probably going to be here early! I am just so shocked b/c I had a fabulous appt on Monday with a long firm cervix and now I am here 1 cm dilated and soft. It happened that quick!

Testing for
radon can be done with a do-it-yourself home test. Use
only home tests that are labeled "meets EPA requirements." The two types of
home tests used to detect radon are short-term and long-term.
can purchase an EPA-qualified short-term or long-term detector test kit at
hardware or retail stores or through the U.S. EPA:
If you don't want to do the test yourself or if you are
buying or selling a home, you can hire a qualified tester to do the testing for
you. Contact your state radon office for a list of qualified testers.
These tests work by measuring average indoor levels of
radon in your home or office. Radon is measured in units of radioactivity per
volume of air. The most common measure is picocuries per liter of air (pCi/L).
The average indoor level of radon is estimated to be about 1.3 pCi/L, while the
average outdoor level of radon is about 0.4 pCi/L.1
Levels that equal or exceed 4 pCi/L should be reduced. But the EPA says there
is no safe level of radon. Radon levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L can be
reduced as well. Removing radon sources or venting radon should be done by a
contractor specifically trained and certified to fix radon problems.

Lim C Table Lamp by Pablo Pardo for Pablo

Since converting our dining table into a secondary desk I've been on the hunt for a task lamp with two features in mind: LED lighting for warm-white illumination and a minimal visual presence. There's a bevy of task and table lamps available, but Pablo Pardo's design is the first I've happened upon which seems to be capable of being "there" when turned off, while disappearing into the background while turned off. Rated for 50,000 hours of use and 85% more efficient than incandescent lamps, the Lim C is also available as a floor and variable height version, but I've got my eyes set on this ultra-slim magnetic mount model.

One Hour Photo
By DanielJW 6 Comments
One Hour Photo - 3/5
I can say...I really didn't expect a hell of a lot when I started watching this. I like Robin Williams in a lot of the things he does, and it was $5 so what the heck, why not. I was pleasently surprised. Throughout the movie I found they did a really good job of keeping the very eerie atmosphere. Never once did I feel like I could relax. Partially from Robin William's fantastic effort, and the very bland colour palette. Very subtle touches kept drawing me back into this movie. There's a very strange and conflicting balance between sympathy and disgust, it really made me think about what I'd just watched when it was over.
One Hour Photo follows Sy Parrish, who develops film at the SavMart. He does his work with the utmost pride and precision, memorizing all the faces, and styles of photo he gets from every regular customer. Be it baby pictures or amateur porn. His favourite customers however, are the Yorkin family consisting of Nina , Will, and son Jake. He grows into an obession with this family, creating extra prints of all their photos for himself. He falls deeper into his fantasies of being a part of their family, when he discovers a shocking secret within the mother and father's relationship. I suppose I'll leave it at that, so as to not give too much away.
Like I said, I believe Williams did an amazing job in this film. Every mannerism had something incredibly strange about it, giving him a creepy feel before you even know his story. Even his dedication to his job, and the way he talks about his work gives off this vibe thats something is wrong, especially how he talks about the other photo developers who take less care in their work with such disturbing hate. The shots of the processing machines going have a very morbid feeling about them, and nearly everything in this place is white, not to mention the entire film is full of very bland and dark colouring. All these elements really came together well, and helped to create a great atmosphere that I felt nervous looking at. In my books, a good thriller / horror atmosphere is one that'll make you scared on it's own.
During the movie you get various insights into Sy's mind. You find out why he does the things he does, and his justifications for them. This really stood out for me, because they did such a good job fleshing him out and hitting a cord with people that in the end, you're almost trying to defend his psychotic actions. There are just so many relatable traits to Sy that I begun to think about points in my life when I was Sy, the lonely and jelous guy watching the Simpsons every night.
As far as the cinematography went I loved it. Great job of keeping everything low-key, but still a little off. Just enough that you notice it, but not enough that it's punching you in the nose. Simple little off center angles and symmetrical shots add to the creepy. Colours were well done, I can't stress that enough. I loved the presentation of this entire film, I thought it was really really well done.
My few quibbles with would include the lone jump scare of the film. The horror elements were so low key, that it did a good job keeping you on your toes and frightenting you with simple things. The jump scare, all though done well, seemed very out of place and unneeded. It took a lot away from the constant on-edge experience for me to have it just slammed in my face all at once. My only other problem with this film being the end. I don't want to say much about it, I just found it to be very strange and unsatisfying.
Overall I really enjoyed it, definitely worth my $5, and I'll likely watch it several more times. While the actual film creation and cinematography was done well, a few sloppy moments like the jump scare did a good job of taking away from what I thought was the core theme of the film. The brilliant story telling was capped off by a lackluster ending, which is sad because of how immersive I found the film up to that point. Although these may seem like minor issues, they were pretty crippling moments for the film. Breaking theme so drastically and ending on such a low note really brought this down for me. My final word, I recommend it, despite the slip ups. 3/5

An investigation into photosynthesis in deciduous and coniferous trees
Michal Ford, Amy Turner
Coniferous trees and shrubs retain their leaves throughout the year, thus they continue photosynthetic processes. However, as deciduous trees shed their leaves in the fall, they enter a state of dormancy. The goal of this study is to determine whether these trees need a higher rate of photosynthesis because of the reduced time frame of growth compared to coniferous trees. Based on previous research, we hypothesize that deciduous trees have an increased rate of photosynthesis in contrast to coniferous trees to compensate for a shorter growth period.
Three different samples each of deciduous and coniferous leaves were collected. Each paired leaf sample was obtained under similar environmental conditions. This ensured reliability by collecting samples from trees with comparable soil, sunlight strength, and water sources. Each sample was prepared, weighed, and placed in a beaker with a CO2 sensor. The samples were tested in both dark and light conditions, each with a temperature buffer between the light source and the beaker, for 10 minute intervals. The lighted trial measured the rate of cellular respiration and the rate of photosynthesis while the dark trial measured only the rate of cellular respiration. Measurements were recorded throughout the trials, indicating the rising or falling amounts of CO2 within the beaker. If the rates of photosynthesis were significantly different, the samples should show a markedly different CO2 percentage remaining within the beaker.
The rate of photosynthesis was significantly lower for the coniferous samples, averaging at -3.38 g CO2 ppm/min, compared to the deciduous sample mean of -13.36 g CO2 ppm/min (P=0.047). These results are consistent with the reasoning that deciduous foliage could accelerate the photosynthetic process to compensate for the reduced growth time period. The p-value shows the significant differences in the rates of photosynthesis. The validity of our experiment was shown by a consistent effective measurement of the rate of photosynthesis. We conducted three separate trials on each type of tree, each trial produced similar outcomes. This evidence supports our hypothesis; therefore, we failed to reject our hypothesis.
A source of possible error could be the anatomical differences of the leaves. The different surface areas of the leaves and needles may affect the rate of photosynthesis. In addition, the light and dark conditions applied were artificial, perhaps causing the samples to absorb CO2 differently than under natural conditions. In the future, we would like to explore whether the structure of the leaves or needles affect the rate of photosynthesis. Also, do different species of leaves conduct photosynthesis at different rates? The structures of the leaves and needles may differ in order to utilize different photosynthetic mechanisms in different seasons. Although the more compact needles of the coniferous trees have a slower absorption of CO2 and sunlight, perhaps the needles are able to retain more warmth, which prevents a significant loss of heat during the winter while the deciduous trees are unable to do this. All these possibilities still tend to support our conclusion that deciduous and coniferous trees have clearly different rates of photosynthesis.

Customer Raves & Reviews
fun, pretty, and cute!
We ordered these Save the Dates in Black/White/Red, and at first I was a little hesitant because I couldn't see them in person- so we ordered the proof! For $7 it was a great idea, the proof looked adorable and we really were impressed. We ordered 175 with the card holders and envelopes as well. The card holders I am not thrilled with- I think we should have ordered plain ones, the hearts are a bit much. The magnet is adorable, and we have recieved so many compliments about it! Definitely order them!
Great Product!
We just received our Save The Date Magnets and they are beautiful! Fantastic quality, well priced and printed/delivered within a week. I highly recommend MagnetStreet and plan on considering them for my wedding invites as well! Couldn't be happier.
Awesome Product!
I loved the magnets we got for our Save the Dates... I asked the designers to make a few changes, so it was more personalized to be exactly what we wanted. They were so helpful and were happy to make all the changes I asked for! Everything turned out great... Thank you so much!
Magnetic Save the Dates
I am so pleased with the Save the Dates my fiancé and I ordered! Not only is the quality fantastic, but they were delivered 4 days early. They look even better than I imagined. They were packaged in a beautiful box with the envelopes. I will recommend this company to everyone I know:)
Just what we were looking for...
MagnetStreet's user interface is easy to use and has lots of options. When an option isn't readily available there is an option to further personalize, all you have to do is explain in writing what you want and they return your product within a very reasonable time frame. I had a few issues; background color and an uploaded image that were fixed to my liking. Just received the final product and we are very satisfied!

So glad I was broke during the Wii U's launch; I ended up getting the WWDH Bundle as a result.
What goes around comes around?...
What is the recompense for America's mistreatment of the black man and woman?
Basic bundle for me. Got it in August when Canadian Targets were clearing them out at $149.99. Couldn't pass it up at that price (I've owned a 500gb external hard drive for a few years now that I haven't filled even halfway yet, so storage size isn't an issue for me). I don't plan on downloading much anyway (I've always preferred having a physical product), but I did grab Earthbound and enjoyed it quite a bit. Oh, and Donkey Kong (just got the tail-end of the VC promo, and was willing to pay 30 cents for it).
Have since picked up Pikmin 3 (loved it, well worth the $60), Nintendo Land (fun, but I'm glad I got it new for $30), Super Luigi U (great fun, and as a surprise bonus my Wii U receipt contained a ten dollar-off offer for any one video game you purchased in September, so I got the physical disc for $19.99), Game & Wario (quirky but short-lived entertainment, just bought it this past weekend for $11.99, another Target clearence ftw), and Zombiu (used for $19.99, just started playing it today. It seems... decent. I don't care much for the forced touch screen buttons, though.).
Overall, considering the total dollar amount I spent on everything, I'd say I'm pretty satisfied, but I'd definitely be singing a different tune if I had paid full price for all of the above (especially for the system itself, ouch).
Also, the browser is butter. God, I love it (using it right now).
A friend of mine thought that he had an NES toploader, until I informed him that it was a Super NES.

FOX Sports Exclusive
Harvick discusses birth of first son
Kevin Harvick welcomed his first child, Keelan, into the world on Sunday.
FAMILY TIESBehind every NASCAR driver, there's a support team.
For most drivers, the birth of a child would be a game-changer with feeding schedule, diaper changes and sleepless nights. For Kevin and DeLana Harvick, their son's arrival also meant registering @KeelanHarvick on Twitter.
"Keelan has his own everything because I didn't want some crazy-ass fan getting hold of his Twitter name or his website, so he has everything that you could imagine from top to bottom just as more of a personal security, peace of mind than anything. So that's really the only reason.
"We own them all. He doesn't have one or need one. More of just kind of protecting him than anything."
Harvick acknowledges "it's been a crazy week." On Saturday, Harvick had a substitute driver standing by for him for the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona. He flew back to North Carolina immediately following the race on Saturday night and Keelan was born Sunday afternoon.
"We went in and she did a great job and had a baby within about two hours," Harvick said. "Dad waited a little long to get her to the hospital. I was obviously not her favorite person as they told her they wouldn't give her an epidural. She did good. She had it all natural, no drugs or nothing.
"We had a healthy baby boy, and that was the most important part. Everybody is good and at home, doing normal things."
Harvick feels fortunate to have "a lot of help," including his mother-in-law, in close proximity. While Harvick was warned his life would change, the driver says things have not been dramatically different.
THAT'S THE WAY!Keselowski's back in charge after JJ's setback. NASCAR Power Rankings
"You know it's nice to come to the racetrack now to be honest with you," Harvick said. "Over the last few weeks, the anxiety of just everything that was going to happen with having a baby and knowing that everything is settled at home and everybody is healthy. That was the part I was worried about the most. Definitely the most relaxed that I've been able to be in weeks coming to the racetrack.
"I think as we get to the track this week, everybody is excited that we don't have anything to worry about except for the race cars. No back-up drivers or situations that could pop up. So, it's good to come to the track."
While many NASCAR newborns are feted with vehicles as baby presents, Harvick is discouraging the notion of another generation of racers in his family.
"We're hoping for no go-karts," Harvick said. "We're hoping for golf clubs. We're hoping that we go in a different direction there. But, whatever he wants to do."

No time should be lost in punishing those responsible for the gang-rape of the 23-year-old woman, now battling for life in a Singapore hospital, Congress president Sonia Gandhi said Friday.
"Our wish is that she recovers and comes back to us... and no time is lost in bringing perpetrators of the crime to justice," Gandhi told reporters at the Congress headquarters here after hoisting the party flag on the occasion of its foundation day.
This is Gandhi's first public statement on the young physiotherapist who was brutally tortured and raped by a gang of men in a moving bus in the national capital.
The Congress leader wished for a speedy recovery for the 23-year-old survivor who is still extremely critical according to the last medical update by the Singapore hospital.
When PTI contacted the hospital officials onFriday, they informed that the girl's condition was the same as Thursday night.
Hospital Chief Executive Officer Dr Kelvin Loh had said in a statement last night that "the patient remains in an extremely critical condition. She is under treatment at Mount Elizabeth Hospital's Intensive Care Unit."
"Prior to her arrival, she has already undergone three abdominal surgeries, and experienced a cardiac arrest in India," said Dr Loh. "A multi-disciplinary team of specialists is taking care of her and doing everything possible to stabilise her condition."
The security was tightened at the hospital, favoured by well-heeled patients, with each visitor screened before being allowed into the ICU.

These shelf pulls were Never Previously Owned. *~*~ Ships Immediately *~*~ Hassle-Free Refunds If you Aren't Fully Satisfied ~*~* From the Publisher "Never talked about it." That''s what most people say when they''re asked if the veteran in the family ever shared wartime experiences. Describing combat, imprisonment or lost comrades from the World Wars, the Korea War, or even Afghanistan is reserved for Remembrance Day or the Legion lounge. Nobody was ever supposed to see them get emotional, show their vulnerability. Nobody was ever to know the hell of their war. About 25 years ago, Ted Barris began breaking through the silence. Because of his unique interviewing skills, he found that veterans would talk to him, set the record straight and put a face on the service and sacrifice of men and women in uniform. As a result of his work on 15 previous books, Barris has earned a reputation of trust among Canada''s veterans. Indeed, over the years, nearly 3,000 of them have shared their memories, all offering original material for his books. Among other revelations in Breaking the Silence, veterans of the Great War reflect on an extraordinary first Armistice in 1918; decorated Second World War fighter pilots talk about their thirst for blood in the sky; Canadian POWs explain how they survived Chinese attempts to brainwash them during the Korean War; and soldiers with the Afghanistan mission talk about the horrors of the "friendly fire" incident near Kandahar. Breaking the Silence is a ground-breaking book that goes to the heart of veterans'' war-time experiences.

Loftware Officially Launches Blog Devoted to GS1 Labeling in Healthcare
PORTSMOUTH, N.H., July 21 /PRNewswire/ — Loftware, Inc., a 20 year leader in flexible and scalable label output management solutions worldwide, today announced the official debut of its new online community designed to advance the global understanding and speedier implementation in the healthcare industry of an emerging global standard for product identification and labeling. The new site, called The Loftware Blog on GS1 and Healthcare, at http://www.loftwareblog.com/, the first of its kind on this topic in the industry, features information, news analysis, strategic insights, and leading industry views from Loftware and distinguished third parties on the subject of GS1 which is both a leading global organization, and an overall labeling methodology, dedicated to the design and implementation of global standards and solutions for supply and demand chains across all industry sectors worldwide.
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080226/NETU036LOGO )
Loftware's blog focus on healthcare-specific devices, pharmaceuticals, and related products stems from the company's extensive executive experience in the healthcare sector as well as Loftware's view that the healthcare industry faces the most severe supply chain repercussions for failing to achieve the new standard and meet GS1′s mandate for January 1, 2010 adoption. A commercial-free site, The Loftware Blog on GS1 and Healthcare has been in development for more than 90 days during which, in viral mode, it has captured a rapidly growing worldwide readership of leading supply chain and materials management executives in the healthcare industry.
Official Blog Site Launch Timed for AHRMM08 Annual Conference
With already more than 100 posts on topics ranging from future barcode symbology technology and FDA policy developments to global pharmaceutical market growth estimates and the growing number of sovereign countries worldwide mandating the GS1 standard, Loftware is launching the blog to coincide with one of the most important healthcare materials management trade events of the year: the AHRMM Annual Conference.
The Association for Healthcare Resource & Materials Management (AHRMM) of the American Hospital Association is the premier organization for healthcare supply chain and materials management professionals. AHRMM strengthens the nation's healthcare supply chain by providing leadership, education, networking, and industry-specific resources to advance the field and enhance the professional development of its individual members.
Expert Assessment of the Growing Risks of Non-Compliance
"Major national and international medical device and products companies face a near-term deadline after which they risk their competitive advantage and market share growth due to barriers to emerging global markets, and delays in new product launch initiatives if their product labeling does not comply to the GS1 standard," said Christopher Little, Vice President of Marketing for Loftware. "This may not be the standard to end all standards, but as a Company that has specialized in and mastered labeling standards and technologies for over twenty years, we're confident at Loftware that GS1 will drive product marking in the global healthcare supply chain for at least the coming decade and beyond.
"GS1 is good news for medical equipment suppliers and consumers, but it also has to be managed so that there are no hiccups in adoption," continued Little. "GS1 has it covered with guides and resources but there's an enormous need for general GS1 news worldwide. Our blog is dedicated to being a go-to resource on GS1, GS1 labeling, GS1 barcodes, and the general healthcare setting in which GS1 and barcodes are deployed. It's lively, fresh and the focus is on relevance to our readership. Although promoted to date only virally, we already have a global readership, and I personally have received many emails thanking Loftware for this blog."
Although he began his career supporting ascent, orbit and descent simulations of the Space Shuttle program for NASA, Mr. Little has a long career in healthcare IT. He joined start-up Trinity Computing to create the world's first PC-based charting system for open-heart surgery, sold globally by 3M, and a variety of other clinical software products. After placing twice in Inc. Magazine's Top 100, the company was sold to DuPont. In 1990, he was recruited into Wyeth as Manager of Clinical Information Systems, where he oversaw the acquisition of several companies in key growth areas. In 1993, he joined the start-up Healthcare Communications as Vice President of Marketing and participated in #1 growth in sales according to Healthcare Informatics. The company was sold to Healthdyne. Subsequently, Mr. Little joined Lotus/IBM as Worldwide Healthcare Marketing Manager and grew the vertical market business three-fold. A co-founder at Health Language, Inc., Mr. Little worked two financing rounds and participated in record sales growth. He is a full member of HIMSS, AMIA, IEEE and AMA. He joined Loftware in 2006.

Grilling Safety is Important Year-Round So Keep Your Disability Insurance Policy Active; Frank N. Darras of DarrasLaw Offers Tips for Every Season
Cooking out in good or inclement weather should be taken very seriously, as the danger is very real. Another reason to make sure all insurance policies are current, says Darras.
Ontario, CA (PRWEB) July 23, 2014
Regardless of the season, anyone thinking to use a grill, whether it is propane or charcoal, needs to take a step back and review proper safety measures. What would seem like an easy enough process, grill owners should think of their welfare along with reviewing their insurance policies.
According to Fox News, last year, ESPN's Hannah Storm was injured when her propane grill exploded in front of her. While cooking dinner, the flame on the grill went out and Storm went to reignite it, not realizing that propane gas had pooled within the grill. The resulting explosion caused several first- and second-degree burns across her face and neck and meant she was off work for approximately three weeks (ESPN Hannah Storm Returns Three Weeks After Grill Accident, Fox News, January 1, 2013).
There are many causes behind gas grill injuries so anyone thinking to use a grill should always follow proper procedure: "Whether it's assembly, use, maintenance, cleaning or storage, make your grill manufacturer's instructions your go-to resource for safe grilling. If your flame goes out, turn off the gas and refer to your owner's manual. At a minimum, with all grill models, keep the lid open and wait at least 15 minutes before relighting." (Safe Grilling: Propane Education & Research Council, July 2014)
"Too many grilling accidents happen every year so I'm glad Hannah Storm was able to heal quickly and get back to work to help support her family," comments Frank N. Darras, America's top disability insurance lawyer. "Others who may have experienced similar accidents could be out of work for an undetermined amount of time while they recuperate, which is why disability insurance is so important. The benefits from a disability insurance policy can help keep an individual or family comfortable until the injured party can go back to work."
Gas grill owners have many safety precautions to follow when it comes to propane grills, including relighting procedures. Not only should everyone follow grilling precautions but also, as with any potential risk, health insurance and disability insurance policies should be examined. The grill master is then aware of what to expect should anything unfortunate happen.
"While barbequing is an American tradition, too many incidents occur every year due to avoidable mistakes. Thankfully, Hannah Storm was one of the lucky ones and was able to go on a host the Rose Bowl parade but not everyone will be able to heal in such a short time span. No one ever expects their grill to catch fire but play it on the safe side and get in touch with your insurance agent to purchase a disability insurance policy. Grill safely knowing a policy is there to cushion you if things go bad," says Darras.
Frank N. Darras is available for interviews on all insurance matters. Contact Robin Nolan at McDavid Public Relations to schedule 919-745-9333

Peppers double pleasure with 'Stadium Arcadium'
By Jonathan Cohen
NEW YORK (Billboard) – The Red Hot Chili Peppers will
release their first new album in almost four years on May 9, a
double set called "Stadium Arcadium."
The funk-rock veterans recorded 38 songs for the project,
and at one point even considered releasing three separate
records, but ultimately whittled the material down to a
25-track, two-disc set. Mixing on the Rick Rubin-produced
Warner Bros. effort is now halfway complete, according to
frontman Anthony Kiedis.
"We got together and our initial writing task was to write
a short record: an old school, hit 'em and quit 'em, straight
to the point record," he told Billboard.com. "A record with
only 11 or 12 songs instead of 17 songs, just for a change.
Three months later, we had 38 songs, all of which were
meaningful and worth recording and mixing."
At first, the idea of an album trilogy seemed "inspiring
and appealing. But the more we thought about it, the more we
realized it would be a nightmare," Kiedis said. "Even if you
only release them six months apart, you're waiting two years
until the final installment. Nobody had that kind of patience.
By that time, we want to be writing new music and making
another record. The best we could come up with is squeezing our
favorite 25 onto one body."
Kiedis cited "Snow" as one of his favorite tunes from the
new album, due to its "really crazy sounding guitar part. It's
very busy but rhythmically desirable at the same time. That has
grown into one of the epic, kind of great-feeling jams on this
record." Another tune, "Wet Sand," goes in a new structural
direction. "It isn't so much verse/chorus/verse/chorus with a
bridge," Kiedis said. "It has a beginning, a middle and an end,
which I like as a change of pace."
Fans are sure to be thrilled by the playing of guitarist
John Frusciante, who here eschews the more minimalist approach
of the Peppers' past two albums. Said Kiedis, "On this record,
he was kind of like, 'Okay, it's time for me to lay it all on
the table and really shine as a guitar player.' He's a lot more
balls-out. It's very solo intensive — there's some incredible
guitar solos. I guess there's still a little bit of early Beach
Boys and early Electric Light Orchestra and intense vocal
harmonies. They make themselves known."
Kiedis attributed the creative burst to the fact that "the
chemistry when it comes to writing is better than ever. Always
in the past, there was a little bit of struggle between
(bassist) Flea, John or myself as contributing writers — a
struggle to dominate. But we are now confident enough in who we
are, so everybody feels more comfortably contributing more and
more valuable, quality stuff."
The Peppers will "start rocking in May," according to
Kiedis, with the itinerary set to visit Europe first. A North
American tour will then run from August through November.
"Instead of playing outdoor shows, we'll play indoor shows so
we can bring a little bit of theatrical love into the arena
space," he said.
"Stadium Arcadium" is the follow-up to "By the Way," which
debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 in July 2002 and has sold
1.9 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen

The WCC Reading Center is currently staffed by an Instructional Associate, Jolene Brown (Torres).
I have been an avid reader my whole life and began tutoring reading at a young age: first to my little brother and later to a myriad of stuffed animals who, unfortunately, did not learn as well. The stuffed animals may not have learned but I persisted and, if nothing else, I learned patience and persistence that stays with me to this day.
I have worked in reading support services for six years at two community colleges. I bring to Woodland Community College a passion for reading and reading instruction, as well as the knowledge and understanding that helps students understand the importance of reading. My goal with students is to make them critical thinkers and readers.
Successful students should be able to identify their own strengths and weaknesses in their study skills, and adjust their work accordingly. I work with each student in such a way as to help the student become self-sufficient, encouraging critical reading and thinking, as well as metacognitive assessments. By asking questions, identifying goals, and establishing reasonable expectations students can and will find their reading and studying improve and continue to improve over the long-term.
