1 1/2 pound green beans, cut into 2-inch lengths
4 large portobello mushrooms
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
4 ounces sliced smoked bacon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly milled black pepper
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the green beans and return to the boil. Cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water.
Cut off the stem from each mushroom and slice crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick roundness. Using a teaspoon, scrape out the dark brown gills from the underside of each mushroom cap and cut the caps into 1/4-inch-thick strips.
In a 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium heat. Add the mushroom stems and caps and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned and tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the shallots and cook, stirring often, until the shallots soften, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and tilt to coat the pan. Add the bacon and cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and brown, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to paper towels to drain. Leave the bacon drippings in the skillet. When the bacon is cool, coarsely chop and set aside.
Place the skillet over medium heat and heat until the bacon drippings sizzle. Add the green beans and mushrooms, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the bacon and season with the salt and pepper.
Transfer to a warmed serving dish and serve immediately.

38. Evelyn Mazzocco
SVP of creative, global girls' and games brands, Mattel
The Methodical Toy Maker
Each and every year, Mattel puts out 8,000 toys—and redesigns 80% of its product line. Understatement alert: "We have to have a disciplined approach to creativity," Evelyn Mazzocco says. She stresses collaboration, which recently led to the monster-hit Monster High. Designers hatched the idea after a consumer insights shopping trip with tween girls, who gravitated toward "scary cute" styles. The dolls debuted in 2010 with a web series and are now the No. 2 doll in the world, second only to Barbie (whose successful 2008 reboot Mazzocco also shepherded). Her latest: Max Steel, tough enough to take on G.I. Joe.

The lowriders that are saving lives
Top Gear meets LA ex-gang members seeking redemption through cars…
Posted: 16 Oct 2013
"The police, especially cops from out of town, don't see a kid from the neighbourhood lowriding and realise that it saved him, it's kept him out of trouble, that he spent all his money on it, that he built it himself, that it made him a man. It made me a man. And got me a career. But when I'm on the boulevard, the cops see a gang-banger."

50 things to do in the Twin Cities before you die

By CP Staff
It's been quite a year. In 2008, two wars, an economic meltdown, and an election that highlighted America's gravest problems had everyone a bit on edge.
But before the year flames out, let's put aside those portentous issues and take a moment to remember the artists.
It's a funny thing about the arts. In tough times they tend to be forgotten, as governments and philanthropies cut funds and patrons trim their entertainment budgets. Yet in really tough times, we discover we need artists more than ever. During the Great Depression, people still flocked to movies. Popular songs like "We're in the Money" and "Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries" kept people's spirits up. The WPA hired artists to paint thousands of murals across the country.
Artists are an essential part of society, a necessary filter for processing the world: They help us to confront our difficult issues, make sense of them, or escape from them entirely. And let's face it, artists know a thing or two about poverty.
So let's not wait for a catastrophe to appreciate the creative souls among us. On the following pages you'll find some of the year's most inspiring musicians, writers, visual artists, dancers, filmmakers, and more. They made 2008 a better year, and they stand ready to see us through whatever may come in 2009. With any luck, they'll help us appreciate even more the better days to follow. But even in a worst-case scenario, what the hell—we can always use a few more murals.

NBI nabs con artist who gypped actress Helen Gamboa, other victims
More News from Jeannette I. Andrade
MANILA, Philippines—Agents of the National Bureau of Investigation arrested late Wednesday afternoon a suspected con artist who allegedly gypped the wife of Senate Majority Floor Leader Vicente "Tito" Sotto III and a celebrity stylist out of some P15 million in jewelry.
NBI Reaction, Arrest and Interdiction Division (RAID) personnel 40-year-old Francesca Santiago, 40, at her home at 30-A Zobel Street, BF Homes, Parañaque City, on the strength of an arrest warrant issued by a Quezon City court.
NBI-RAID head agent and lawyer Ross Jonathan Galicia said they failed to arrest Santiago's husband, Benjamin, who was allegedly also involved in the con games and remains the object of a police hunt.
Galicia said Santiago's arrest stemmed from complaints lodged by a number of wealthy personalities, including singer/actress Helen Gamboa and celebrity stylist Eric Pe Benito.
He said that Santiago allegedly starts the confidence game or swindle by befriending a person whom she expects to own expensive jewelry which she offers to buy.
Galicia said that Santiago would then pay for the jewelry with checks to show goodwill but when the victim sells her pricier jewelry, the con artist would then pay with unfunded checks and disappear with the merchandise.
The Santiago couple, Galicia said, has been allegedly involved in swindling since 2006.
Gamboa filed a case against the Santiago couple in the Quezon City Metropolitan Trial Court's Branch 39 for violation of Batas Pambansa 22 or the Bouncing Checks Law, claiming that she was defrauded by the couple of some P8 million worth of jewelry, of which P4.5 million was paid for in bouncing checks.
Benito lodged a complaint with the NBI after the Santiagos allegedly gypped him out of P7 million worth of jewelry.
Francesca Santiago remains in the custody of the NBI pending her presentation in court.
Galicia called on the suspected con artist's other victims to surface and file formal complaints of estafa against her.

Mayor John Cranley on CNBC Squawk Box May 8, 2014.
Joanna Reeder on CNBC Squawk Box May 8, 2014.
Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley is spreading the news about the Queen City's "renaissance" to a business audience in New York and across America this week.
NEW YORK – Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley is spreading the news about the Queen City's "renaissance" to a business audience in New York and across America this week.
It was like a St. Xavier High homecoming when the mayor was interviewed on CNBC's Squawk Box Thursday by CNBC anchor Joe Kernen. Both are St. X graduates.
WATCH: Click here to see a two-minute clip of the interview.
"The main reason we're here is because we're in the beginning of a huge wave of renaissance," Cranley told the three CNBC panelists. The mayor was joined by Joanna Reeder, president of REDI Cincinnati, the region's lead economic development agency.
"During the recession, the business community and the public sector invested over $2.5 billion to the revitalize our downtown and Over-the-Rhine," Cranley told the panel. "When no one else could get construction going, we doubled down. We have this vibrancy that is like nothing else in the country."
Reeder slipped in the fact that KPMG recently named Cincinnati the second most cost-effective place to do business in the U.S.
When Kernen mentioned how easy it is to drive to a ballgame and park, Reeder added, "We like to say it's the most convenient big city in America."
Cranley will be a guest Friday morning on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" cable TV program. Cranley is scheduled to appear at approximately 7:45 a.m.
Their appearances are part of the "Cincy In NYC" excursion to New York from May 6-12. Arts, political and business leaders from Cincinnati are joining together to promote all the amenities the Queen City has to offer for potential tourists, residents and businesses.

|Feeding studies of dietary diacylglycerol oil in normal and lipoprotein lipase-deficient cats
|Datz, Craig
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|Diacylglycerol (DAG) oil has been investigated in humans and animals as a potential therapy for hypertriglyceridemia and related disorders. DAG oil was evaluated in healthy cats and in a feline model of hypertriglyceridemia as a result of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency. In the first study, eight adult cats were offered a commercial dry diet enriched with either DAG or triglyceride (TAG) oil (48% metabolizable energy [ME] from fat) in a two-bowl palatability feeding trial. After 14 days, total food intakes were similar (DAG diet 470 ± 52 g, TAG diet 380 ± 88 g, P = 0.4). Both diets were well-accepted and no changes in health or fecal quality were observed. In the second study, eleven adult LPL-deficient male cats were fed a semipurified diet containing either DAG or TAG oil as the sole fat source (25% ME) in a crossover design for 8 days each after a 21-day acclimation period. Serum concentrations of TAG, cholesterol, and nonesterified fatty acids were measured on days 6, 7, 8 and days 14, 15, 16. No significant effects were observed on any measurements, and a reduction in hypertriglyceridemia was not demonstrated (DAG: 3282 ± 400 mg/dl, TAG: 3001 ± 302 mg/dl). Dietary fat source did not significantly affect food intake, body weight, fecal quality, or general health. Further studies of DAG oil in cats are needed to evaluate long-term safety and benefits.

FIRTH, Idaho -- A 62-year-old Idaho Falls woman struck by a car Saturday night has died from her injuries, according to Idaho State Police.
Police were called at 9:13 p.m. to investigate a car versus pedestrian crash on US 91, north of Firth in Bingham County.
Investigators say 68-year-old Chester Lewis of Caldwell was northbound in a 1992 Geo Metro when he came upon a large group of people crossing the road. Lewis swerved to avoid the group and struck Frances Montgomery.
She was taken by air ambulance to East Idaho Regional Medical Center in Idaho Falls, where she later died from her injuries.
Montgomery was attending a vigil for her daughter's boyfriend, Arnold Taylor, 42, of Firth, at the site of his fatal motorcycle crash when she was hit. Taylor died Friday night after colliding with a deer.
The road was blocked for about an hour and a half. The crash is still under investigation.

Theater Review: Suspense Abounds In 'Veronica's Room'Monday, November 18, 2013
Halloween is over, which makes the timing just slightly off for the Little Theater's current production of Ira Levin's Veronica's Room. Levin gained fame with his scary portrayal of New York's Dakota building in Rosemary's Baby. But while that was a supernatural horror story involving congress with the Devil, Veronica's Room, which came after that, deals with scary horror that is purely human in its origins — albeit sick human.
Nourishments: Ancient Grain Is A Popular Modern IngredientMonday, November 18, 2013
It's hard to believe that quinoa, the "super food," has only now been recognized as the powerhouse nutritional food that it is. The United Nations General Assembly selected 2013 as the "International Year of Quinoa." But this quasi-grain (more closely related to spinach and beets than it is to any of the grassy grains) has been feeding people in Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia for thousands of years and has been making its way into the international marketplace for decades.
It's Fish-Eat-Weed At Taunton LakeMonday, November 18, 2013
About 250 grass carp are now silently swimming in the waters of Taunton Lake, the scenic 125-acre spring-fed, glacial lake in the Taunton District whose waters drain into Pond Brook and eventually to the Housatonic River.
The grass carp, which are not native to the lake, recently were released into it as part of a project designed to curb the growth of the weed known as aquatic milfoil. Grass carp eat milfoil.

Volunteers Pick Apples In Washington, Conn. For Newtown PantryMonday, November 11, 2013
Apples, apples, and more apples. Victory Garden Founder Harvey Pessin dropped his tailgate to reveal a truck bed filled with bagged apples. He and other Victory Garden volunteers made a trip to Washington, Conn. Wednesday, November 6, where a private property owner with more than 150 apple trees welcomed him and others to pick for free as many apples as they liked. "All we had to do was pick," he said. Estate crews in Washington were able to haul produce and load guests' vehicles.

The Alaska Almanac
Edited by Nancy Gates (Alaska Northwest Books, $14.99)
The blurb: The 33rd edition of the almanac is filled with facts about Alaska's geography, economy, sports, cultures and more, plus the wacky insights of Mr. Whitekeys.
Excerpt: "Three species of salamander, two species of frog and one species of toad are found in Alaska. In the salamander order are the rough-skinned newt, long-toed salamander and northwestern salamander. In the frog and toad order are the boreal toad, wood frog and spotted frog. The northern limit of each species may be the latitude at which the larvae fail to complete their development in one summer. While some species of salamander can overwinter as larvae in temperate southeastern Alaska, the shallow ponds of central Alaska freeze solid during the winter. All these amphibians are found primarily in southeastern Alaska, except for the wood frog, Rana sylvatica, which with its shortened larval period is found widespread throughout the state and north of the Brooks Range."
The Alaska Wild Berry Cookbook
(Alaska Northwest Books, $14.95)
The blurb: First published in 1982, the cookbook's latest edition includes 275 recipes --including breads, beverages, salads, mains, desserts and preserves -- for nearly 50 different types of berries that grow wild in Alaska.
Excerpt: "In this volume we have concentrated our recipes among the more abundant or more popular species of wild berries. Many berries native to other regions are similar to ours and can be used in place of the Northern fruit suggested for recipes here. Cultivated species may also be substituted for wild berries, although one must remember that they are often less tart than their wild relatives and adjustments in the sugar added may be necessary.
"The different forms of raspberries may be substituted one for the other and blueberries likewise. The red currant is a distinctive fruit, and it is probably best not to use other varieties of currants when a recipe calls for red ones. Lowbush and highbush cranberries are entirely different and require different recipes."

Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
At the height of the Cold War, the U.S. government enlisted the aid of a select group of psychologists, sociologists, and political scientists to blueprint enemy behavior. Not only did these academics bring sophisticated concepts to what became a project of demonizing communist societies, but they influenced decision-making in the map rooms, prison camps, and battlefields of the Korean War and in Vietnam. With verve and insight, Ron Robin tells the intriguing story of the rise of behavioral scientists in government and how their potentially dangerous, "American" assumptions about human behavior would shape U.S. views of domestic disturbances and insurgencies in Third World countries for decades to come.
Based at government-funded think tanks, the experts devised provocative solutions for key Cold War dilemmas, including psychological warfare projects, negotiation strategies during the Korean armistice, and morale studies in the Vietnam era. Robin examines factors that shaped the scientists' thinking and explores their psycho-cultural and rational choice explanations for enemy behavior. He reveals how the academics' intolerance for complexity ultimately reduced the nation's adversaries to borderline psychotics, ignored revolutionary social shifts in post-World War II Asia, and promoted the notion of a maniacal threat facing the United States.
Putting the issue of scientific validity aside, Robin presents the first extensive analysis of the intellectual underpinnings of Cold War behavioral sciences in a book that will be indispensable reading for anyone interested in the era and its legacy.

I'm running Kubuntu 5.10 with kernel 2.6.12-10-686-smp & X Window System Version 6.8.2.
Device "NVIDIA Corporation NV11GL [Quadro2 MXR/EX]
1.0-8178 installation compleated ok; but X will not start.
I get:
ERR: API mismatch: NVIDIA kernel module is version 1.0.7667 but this X module is version 1.0.8178.
Any suggestions ?
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
When it's done, read /var/log/nvidia-installer.log, it will list a bunch of files that it didn't remove because they weren't part of the 8178 install -- remove them all (carefully, there are similar named files).
Then re-install, this should clear up this particular error.
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
Thanks for the tip. I have checked /var/log/nvidia-installer.log; there was only one symlink which wasn't deleted. I deleted symlink, reinstalled the driver and this time no problems.
I had a TwinView working, did several tweaks to the xorg.conf created by the nvidia-xconfig, restarting X after each individual change without a glitch.
When I restart the PC the problem reapears:
1. first i get an error: - not starting X display manager (xdm); it is not the default display manager. Now I'm stuck with console login.
2. I login as a root, type in xdm commmand; screen flickers a few times and than it returns to prompt. No xdm.log is created.
3. if I type in startx command I get the same error masage as mentioned in original post.
Any suggestions?
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
I have the same problem on a regular Ubuntu 5.10. But this solution doesn't work for me, i've tried it in any possible ways, but i still end up reverting to the 7667. After uninstalling with 8178 i find no listing of files in /var/log/nvidia-installer.log, nor does uninstalling using 7667 work. I'm using the precompiled 2.6.12-10 kernel from the repositories, i've tryed reinstalling the kernel, source, headers, i even searched for files containing "nvidia" and deleted any symlinks but the same error persists. I also deleted any files with the name 'nvidia' in /lib/linux-restricted-modules and /lib/modules, still the same.
Any suggestions?
lord_hammer what was the symlink you deleted?
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
The symlink I have deleted was:
I also did the;
~#: cp /usr/lib/tls/libnvidia-tls.so.1.0.7667 deleted.libnvidia-tls.so.1.0.7667
(this file was not referenced in nvidia-install.log)
That enabled me to reinstall the driver, but on first reboot the X will not start;
ERR = not starting xdm, it is not default window manager
It was impossible to restart X (with my knoledge), so I have to --uninstall the driver. After that no more problems. The system work fine with 7667.
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
The only way that I could get 8178 to work with 18.104.22.168 was to rename the /lib/tls folder to make it inaccessible.
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
None of the solution so far have worked. I just can't get 8178 to boot. There's gotta be something in the kernel modules that's still 7667 but i've got no clue as to what.
To highlight my exact situation:
OS: Ubuntu Breezy Badger 5.10
Kernel: 2.6.12-10-386(image downloaded from the repositories, precompiled)
Nvidia driver 7667 works well everytime. 8178 works after beeing installed but after a reboot, when X starts it fails to start and displays the exact same error:
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
Best wishes to all of YOU
It appears to me that that there is something wrong in compiling the nVIDIA kernel module an the system cleanup after installlation. My be we should try to use different switches during installation; my be some new error massages will reapper an show us the right way.
I had try to look after any 7667 leftovers after installation but have found none which I cold delete/move to backup folder and have an operational system.
Once again ,many happy computing days in the year 2006.
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
hi soze.
I'm glad that you make it working.
Can you please further clarify individual steps you have taken.
I had all the source and header installed at all times.
I don't get this sudo part
Which driver do I have to --uninstall. The only one I have installed is 7667 which get installed with Kubuntu. (I don't have an installation program)
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
-I also had the kernel source and header files installed, keep em that way.
-the uninstall part is entirely up to you, if you have 7667, by all means --uninstall it with the 7667 installer, or you could just install 8178 which will perform the uninstall automaticaly. What matters is that you've removed the linux-restricted-modules and nvidia-glx, this is the key.
Either use synaptic(i think it was Kynaptic in KDE) or in the terminal/Konsole type this command: sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`. Type the 'uname -r' command to get your exact kernel version, in example my output is "2.6.12-10-386", so i would have to: 'apt-get --purge remove linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-10-386'
Once you've removed this you can go ahead and upgrade to 8178 and it should work. It does for me anyway.
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
Re: 1.0-8178_problems_with_X
@HellSpawn: chances are you're still seeing problems caused by the linux-restricted-modules package(s), as implied earlier in this thread.

Download Rockchip_Batch_Tool_v1.7.zip
|Older version 1.6: Rockchip_Batch_Tool_v1.6.zip
|Older version 1.5: Rockchip_Batch_Tool_v1.5.zip
Using Rockchip Batch Tool tutorialPlease refer to our Rockchip Batch tutorial for details on how to use the program.
Thanks to andropos from tabletrepublic.com for the program.
excellent guide and pretty straightforward and easy to follow. just a happy user who rooted his cube thanks to your guide!
[…] Source: http://www.arctablet…batch-tool-1-5/ […]
I'm a complete novice to android except for my phone but decided to get a tablet anyway. I now have a cube u30gt and have found that the operating system is not exactly what i expected as it is a chinese version. can someone tell me in plain english what i need to do to upgrade so I can install all apps (cannot even install google chrome) and get rid of the chinese apps .
[…] Télécharger et décompresser le zip contenant Rockchip Batch Tool (v1.5), il servira plus tard. Et télécharger la dernière version du firmware à installer (par exemple, la dernière version rootée du firmware de la Cube U20GT (test à venir sur Geek de France) est disponible au téléchargement ici). […]
yes, i'm having the same problem too using win 7, 64 bit
[…] also einer frischen Neuinstallation braucht man das Rockchip Batch Tool v1.5 findet man hier: http://www.arctablet.com/blog/archos…atch-tool-1-5/ bei der Firmware des Herstellers war es ebenso schon im Paket mit dabei. Dies lief aber bei mir […]
the Cube U20GT already comes pre-rooted, but for some reason they didn´t allow for SuperUser access. So, all you have to do to gain access to the root is to install the device drivers, and use ADB Devices in windows DOS, and then code the super user access. it's pretty straight forward and simple, and the detailed instructions can be found at
Yes, I'm having the same problem. Windows 7 cannot install custom driver for rockchip, so laptop and batchtool cannot see the tablet. Can someone please help?
make the tutorial flash mode on youtube plzzz,,,
i can't root my cube,,, T,T
my window 7 can't instal the custom driver
i follow the troubleshooting step but still can't install,,,
help plzz
Having same problem, windows installs its own drivers, can't install custom ones, you had any success yet ?

An Almost New Journal in the History of Physical Science
A new journal for the history of physics appeared in 2010—well, an almost new journal: European Physical Journal: Historical Perspectives on Contemporary Physics—EPJ H for short. The fourth issue is now available and it shows that this is an important new venue for our community.
The journal is produced jointly by Springer Verlag, the Italian Physical Society, and EDPS (the publishing part of the French Physical Society).
This first volume is numbered 35, an indication that this is, in a sense, a continuation of an earlier journal, Annales de Physique. So this new title continues a venerable tradition.
In these first years of renewal, the editor has established a solid basis for publishing quality articles in history of physics.
These first four issues contain 18 articles:
Vol. 35, no. 1, 2010
P. Söding, "On the discovery of the gluon"
M. Eckert, "The troublesome birth of hydrodynamic stability theory: Sommerfeld and the turbulence problem"
B. Schroer, "Jorge A. Swieca's contributions to quantum field theory in the 60s and 70s and their relevance in present research"
V. Trimble, "The origins and abundances of the chemical elements before 1957: from Prout's hypothesis to Pasadena"
Vol. 35, no. 2, 2010
O. Darrigol and S. Shatashvili, "Editorial: In honour of James MacCullagh (1809–1847)"
T.D. Spearman, "James MacCullagh 1809–1847"
J. Bennett, "MacCullough's Ireland: the institutional and cultural space for geometry and physics"
O. Darrigol, "James MacCullagh's ether: An optical route to Maxwell's equations?"
S. Goldstein, J.L. Lebowitz, R. Tumulka, and N. Zanghi, "Long-time behavior of macroscopic quantum systems: Commentary accompanying the English translation of John von Neumann's 1929 article on the quantum ergodic theorem"
J. von Neumann, "Proof of the ergodic theorem and the H-theorem in quantum mechanics"
Vol. 35, no. 3, 2010
Klaus Fredenhagen, "Lille 1957: The birth of the concept of local algebras of observables"
Rudolf Haag, Discussion of the 'axioms' and the asymptotic properties of a local field theory with composite particles
Rudolf Haag, Local algebras: A look back at the early years and at some achievements and missed opportunities
Rudolf Haag, Some people and some problems met in half a century of commitment to mathematical physics
Vol. 35, no. 4, April 2011
P. Carlson and A. De Angelis, Nationalism and internationalism in science: the case of the discovery of cosmic rays
H.G. Dosch and V.F. Müller, The facets of relativistic quantum field theory
B. Schroer, Pasqual Jordan's legacy and the ongoing research in quantum field theory
These articles present a strong indication that the history of physics is thriving. The concentration is decidedly on mathematical and theoretical physics, but the article on the history of cosmic ray research indicates that this may reflect the accident of submission and that the journal editor accepts a broader sense of the history of physics. Historians should consider this journal for their work, without neglecting the existing journals whose scope includes history of physical science.

Serish Nanisetti listens as director Ram Gopal Varma etches out the philosophical framework in which he makes his movies and handles criticism
There is very little that has not been said or written about Ram Gopal Varma. In person, Ram Gopal Varma is built like a stocky wrestler with an unruly mop parted in the middle.
He walks with his palms in his trouser pockets and if he is sitting on a chair, the fingers keep twiddling with the Blackberry whose red light keeps flickering as soon a message has been answered.
As he talks, you realise that Ram Gopal Varma is an ordinary bloke who wears his attitude on his sleeve and keeps the sleeves rolled up for all to see. Infamous for his use of media to peddle his movies, he talks about 'Dongala Mutha' which is being touted as a technology wonder that can make movie cameras obsolete and cinematographers redundant. The movie has been shot with a Canon 5D which is primarily a still camera.
What is the interplay of technology with your creativity?
Technology is just a facilitator, a tool. At the end of the day a director is a story teller. You can go overboard with technology and spend a load of money, or you can use technology and reduce the costs to bare minimum, which I am trying to do with Dongala Mutha which has been shot in just five days with a few technicians. More than technology it is the content, there is story, screenplay, performances, dialogue; cinematic application is what creates the cinematic experience. Without content technology cannot do anything. Technology makes life simpler and faster. Dongala Mutha will help make more movies with lesser cost in lesser time.
Are we ready for a situational comedy minus the songs and dances?
I wish we are. I would have made Appalraju at one fourth the cost and the result might have been better. I have been too long in the business to be disappointed with audience or media response. There are too many parameters for the success of a movie. The audience comes to the cinema hall with certain expectations, the promos are created with certain ideas and the director makes a movie with something else in his mind.
What's next?
I am making a movie called Trishank with Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek and Sanjay Dutt. In Company I showed the political side of the underworld, here we are looking at the inner workings of the police department. And yes, I will be shooting with the same minimal equipment that we used in Dongala Mutha.
Do you visualise the movie before you mount it?
No. I work in the reverse. I work on the characters, the body language, the movements and how they go about their tasks. Once this is taken care of the rest falls in place.
In your book (Na Ishtam , nakey ankitham bad translation: My choice, dedicated to me) there is an essay about Friedrich Nietzsche's influence on Hitler, do you bring these philosophical insights into your movies?
Philosophy in movies? Maybe in the characterisation. I am more interested in the philosophical idea of characterisation. Not in the stories or themes but the way I show the characters there might be something that I have drawn from my readings.
You are drawn to dark themes?
Dark themes? I am drawn to realism. Life is dark, gritty, it is serious. And there is more humour in dark aspects of reality than what we consider comedy.
How do you see criticism of your movies?
To talk ill or think ill about others is as given as the sunrise, it is human nature. We indulge in it all the time.
That's why I am never upset when somebody criticises my movies. They cannot question my actions.
Which is the best chase sequence in your movies that you shot?
I think the court sequence in Rakta Charitra where the camera wanders from one person to another heightening the expectation and when the man fishes out his revolver it is totally unexpected. That was good.
You always wanted to be a director?
I was a film buff and a voracious reader. I watched movies and devoured books written by Ayn Rand, Fredrick Forsyth and others. I barely passed my exams and that too by copying. In the engineering college I was known more for the nuisance value, the gang fights and trouble. But I was a good narrator of stories. One of my friends Mohan Krishna said if he ever made a movie, he will have me as a director.
That was the first time I remember the word used with my name and I was hooked. It became an obsession and here I am.

We visit this place about once a month and it is always wonderful. The sushi is freshly made with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is nice and friendly. The California rolls are delicious!
Above average suburban sushi restaurant, fish was high quality and all the usual menu items. Extremely friendly staff.
Chose Sushi Bar because it was close to my hotel, and had good reviews on Yelp. Very pleased. Had a "Penny Roll" and a "Red Dragon Roll". Both excellent. Many other choices; I may be back if I'm nearby at lunch time. Recommended!
In the area on business, having a sushi fix and this place was recommended. Great place, fast prep, fresh and delicious. Price not too bad, service was a bit abrupt and seemed to want to rush me to order. Enjoyed everything else...super fresh!
Fresh salmon raw, fresh sea urchin in stock ( unusual) and excellent "special" roll. Will definitely come back on the next business trip.
The sushi here isn't bad but there are better options in this area such as Kinta Sushi on Hiawatha in Carol Stream. This restaurant seems family owned so the wait staff is very casual in meeting your needs. The pricing is through the roof for sushi that doesn't seem very fresh ( I am someone who is very experienced in...
We have tried a few others in our area, but the sushi here is really fresh and tasty. We take out and eat in frequently. Their service dining in is good and attentive.
Its a bit pricey, but we believe its worth it.
Best kept secret in Bloomingdale. Small, cozy, and not always busy. Moderately priced but excellent quality, and fresh! I used to live across the street for awhile, so I dined here often. There's not anything bad on the menu. It's can't miss. Try the hand grenades, quail eggs, or lion roll. they now do a "prix fixe" all you can...
We have lived in the area for 5 years and always passed by this hidden gem. It wasn't until we had friends move into the area and recommend it to us that we gave it a try. My husband has a large appetite and the only affordable way for us to eat sushi is with an all you can eat...
We decided to give Sushi bar a try during our last night in town and I have to syat that my family and I were surprised to find out this little gem hidden in a strip mall. The menu offers the usual sushi variety but they also have a pretty good variety of other Japanese dishes. I decided to try...

A Crisis Republicans Should Not Waste
An Austen Chamberlain moment for the Democrats.
Apr 19, 2010, Vol. 15, No. 29 • By HADLEY ARKES
This move to enlarge the powers of the judges was nothing less than revolutionary, for it struck at the deepest principle planted in the American regime from the time of the Revolution: that the safety of the American people should not be left in the hands of officials—whether in the British Parliament or unelected courts—who bear no direct responsibility for the lives that are at stake. And yet, in the law schools and the Democratic party there is not the slightest hesitation to extend the power of judges in this way.
There has been a comparable determination to extend the control of the courts in putting over the parts of the liberal agenda that Democrats will not campaign for in public. Bill Clinton and Barack Obama as they ran for office would not discuss issues like gays in the military or same-sex marriage, but they happily put in place judges who in turn would override voters and constitutions in the states to install same-sex marriage. For a while, in the mid 1990s, there seemed to be a concert forming of state and federal courts to "nationalize" same-sex marriage. But the Republican Congress passed in 1996 the Defense of Marriage Act. It is one of the barriers standing in the way of same-sex marriage spreading from one state to all the others, and so it is no wonder that the desire to repeal that law has taken hold among the Democrats.
On the matter of abortion, it required a Republican Congress to pass the bill on partial-birth abortion—and to pass it twice, for it was blocked the first time with a veto by Bill Clinton. The vote was lopsided between the parties. In the House in 1995, the Republicans voted overwhelmingly for the ban, 215-15. The Democrats resisted a ban, 123-73. In the Senate, Republicans voted for the bill, 45-8; the Democrats voted against, 36-9. There were enough Democrats then to sustain a veto by Bill Clinton. It required a Republican president to sign that bill when it was passed again in 2003. When the bill passed the House, the Republicans voted for it, 218-4. The Democrats voted against it, 137-63.
It takes a special obtuseness, then, not to recognize what has been plain now for many years: The Republicans are in fact the conservative and pro-life party in our politics. Where else, after all, would we find the people who defend traditional marriage, fend off the regulations and taxes that discourage the creation of jobs, seek market solutions first to social problems, and let people keep more of what they earn? Where is one more likely to find the people who do not think that American interests abroad, or the American idea abroad, are tainted and suspect? For that matter, where is one more likely to find the people actually willing to take up arms and risk their lives in defense of the country? It is curious to claim that the Republican party has "lost its way" when the people who share these convictions have no trouble in finding their way to the party that provides, these days, their natural home.
It is part of the alchemy of political parties that they form the principles that hold them together as they reconcile the interests of the groups that are drawn to them in coalition. When there is a transfer of power then from one party to another, the shift is not random but patterned and principled. It's the shift from Michael Mukasey to Eric Holder, from Samuel Alito to Sonia Sotomayor. At a certain point this sharp difference becomes clear to the public in a manner that cannot be missed. And when it comes along with the sense that something critical hangs now on the choice, we should not be astonished if the people, in November, take the levers within their reach and do something astounding.

BOISE -- The Central District Health Department is alerting customers of the Cheesecake Factory that an employee working there was confirmed to have hepatitis A.
CDHD says the risk is low because the infected employee was not involved in preparing food, but there is still a possibility that diners could have been exposed.
Here are the symptoms of hepatitis A:
- Fever
- Loss of appetite
- Abdominal discomfort
- Jaundice
- Tiredness
- Nausea
- Dark urine
If you experienced any of these symptoms, and ate or drank at the Cheesecake Factory at 350 North Milwaukee Street between Dec. 13, 2011, and Jan. 22, 2012, you are encouraged to contact your medical provider.
There is no specific treatment for hepatitis A, but symptoms may be treated. Severity of the symptoms may increase with age.
If you have had a hepatitis A vaccine or had the illness in the past, you are protected from getting the infection.
Dave Fotsch with CDHD tells KTVB that if a restaurant cooperates with the investigation, they usually don't identify the restaurant. In this case, because the exposure had occured over an extended period of time, through which people could still turn up with symptoms, they felt it was important to get the word out.

Defending Casablanca Champ Andujar Reaches SFs
Casablanca, Morocco
by ATP Staff|
Defending Casablanca champion Pablo Andujar advanced to the semi-finals of the Grand Prix Hassan II after pulling double duty on Friday.
Andujar began his day by dismissing Potito Starace 6-3, 6-0 in 69 minutes to win his opening-round match. The third seed followed up his victory over Starace by topping qualifier Sergio Gutierrez-Ferrol 6-4, 1-6, 6-3.
Gutierrez-Ferrol had reached his first tour-level quarter-final when he defeated qualifier Lamine Ouahab 6-4, 6-1.
In the final four, Andujar will play Flavio Cipolla, who beat Benoit Paire 6-3, 6-4 to continue his best run of the season. The Italian saved 10 of the 12 break points he faced to advance in one hour and 33 minutes.
Igor Andreev cruised past Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 6-4, 6-2 to book his place in the semi-finals. Andreev won 82 per cent of his first serve points and converted four of his 13 break point opportunities to improve to 3-0 against Garcia-Lopez.
The Russian is bidding to end a title drought dating back to his triumph in 2005 on home soil in Moscow. He will face seventh seed Albert Ramos on Saturday.
Ramos moved through to his second semi-final of the year with a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Jeremy Chardy. The Spaniard broke Chardy four times to seal the win in one hour and 39 minutes.

Published on December 12, 2013 by Amy
Since August 25th 2012, it's been a joyous and momentous occasion in my life to be garnished by a crown and title so admirable. I consider my reign a true blessing from God, as well as a challenge to overcome the negative prospectors. I hope that the road is now paved with respect and awareness for our future Miss Native American, USA title holders. I'm in hopes that as she walks into a room, eyes will continue to grace at not only her beauty, but admiration for her hard work and dedication. I continue to say, this pageant is history in the making. We are here tonight to witness part 2 in this story, as we crown only the second title holder of Miss Native American, USA.

In participating in this pageant one year ago, I've seen direct changes and advancement from the learning experiences gained. I owe great gratitude to all my supporters and to the selfless staff working with the MNAUSA Organization. Who knew that around this time last year, I was not only prepping myself to win the title but also preparing to shed and overcome fears of performing for an audience? This life changing experience is one that will never be forgotten. It's been a hard-working, but privileged honor, to devote my time to my platform; Alcohol, Health and Nutrition Awareness. I've made speeches throughout the year, radio interviews,
parades, photo shoots, and even been given the opportunity to share my talent at events.
I would like to end by thanking God for aiding me in confidence and allowing this opportunity into my life. To my family and friends, thank for your moral support, and for standing beside me. To my parents, Terry and Pamela Laurence, who have always pushed me and provided my traditional wear, thank you for your generosity! I'd like to wish all contestants the best of luck in tonight's pageant. I pray that they leave tonight feeling a sense of accomplishment in their lives, regardless of the outcome, you are all winners!

ADB, P&G test viability of waste-to-energy plant
More News from Ana G. Roa
popular .
The Asian Development Bank has partnered with Procter & Gamble Co. to explore the possibility of building waste-to-energy plants in the Philippines.
If found viable, the first plant could be piloted in the Philippines by 2016, the ADB said.
The project seeks to generate up to 2 megawatts of power using solid waste collected from homes and businesses.
It also aims to eliminate the need for a landfill, as less than 1 percent of the waste is expected to remain after processing and this may be recycled for use in products like asphalt.
Also, the project aims to develop the municipal solid waste management system into a profitable and flexible business model and supply chain for the collection and treatment of municipal solid waste.
ADB said it had approved a technical assistance plan worth $385,000, equivalent to 60 percent of the total cost, to help determine the viability and sustainability of waste-to-energy projects.
P&G is conducting the studies as part of its long-term sustainability goal of having zero consumer or manufacturing waste go to landfills.
It is estimated that around 6,700 tons of solid waste is generated every day in Metro Manila alone but only 720 tons are recycled or composted, the ADB said.

The richest person at the recently concluded US Open was a caddie. A caddie the business world is very familiar with. Scott McNealy co-founder of Sun Microsystems was seen lugging his son Maverick's clubs when the tournament opened at the Pinehurst Resort & Country Club. McNealy was the only caddie-daddy at the event as his 18 year old son from Stanford was playing as an amateur in this Major event.
Golf has been a father-son game from its inception. It builds relationships and shapes character, making it valuable time for any dad and his son(s). American golfer Matt Kuchar's father, Peter Kuchar, knows all about golf because he has caddied for his son occasionally since nearly fifteen years ago. Peter Uhlein, son of the Titliest CEO has benefitted from his father's golf and business knowledge extensively. Then there are such duos in pro golf where both dad and son have won the same tournament. A most recent one worth mentioning should be when Bill Haas won the 2010 Bob Hope Classic, which his father Jay won in 1988.
In India Inc I have met many golfers, golfing-CEOs who encourage their children to take up the sport because it gives them a reason to bond. I reckon my conversation with Vindi Banga at the Wentworth Club outside of London. In his private equity avatar, he spends time with his son and sometimes gets a week off to Gleneagles for a few rounds of golf. His two sons, having grown up playing sport, also know a bit of golf giving all of them some good quality family time on the fairways. Montek Singh Ahluwalia's weekend retreat for long has been the Delhi Golf Club where he would join his almost regular foursome for a game and catch up on the government buzz. When he can convince his son to step out for a round, he shares its really the time he gets undivided attention. Father-son games are not just about playing a sport. In golf it's about conversation, ideas, opening doors, building relationships, passing on business values.
Take the example of KP Singh of DLF, whose son and vice chairman of the company Rajiv Singh plays to a handicap of two. Besides the fact they have a course of their own, they do scramble to get time together given their business commitments. Having given Rajiv the complete reins of the business, the now 80-something patriarch of the Singh family discusses future land plans, real estate expansion and consolidation with his son while playing half a round or eighteen holes. In the making of such father-child duos are businessman Jai Mehta, whose son practises often at the same range as me. K Balakrishnan, formerly with Lazard and now an independent banker is honing his and his child's swing together.
Golf is the game of personality and character. It builds a bond that's hard to break. Which is probably why people realise it teaches their offspring more than a sport. Golf is not just about how far you can hit a ball or the numbers recorded on the scorecard – it's about making connections and getting to know your fellow players.

Religion or belief discrimination: the scope and limits of employers' duties
A number of recent developments in the area of religion and belief discrimination merit employers' attention. First, what types of non-religious beliefs are protected? Second, to what extent must employers comply with the law when an employee's conduct takes the form of manifestation of his/her belief (as opposed to the simple fact of holding such a belief)?
Although this area of law is highly fact-sensitive (show us one which is not!), a number of common denominators can help you deal with these issues. As a starting point, we suggest that employers should bear in mind that the legislation has been found to protect a wider range of beliefs than was previously thought. If you are faced with a belief-related request or grievance, it will be cautious to examine carefully whether the belief is protected. Do not dismiss the issue out of hand simply because you cannot conceive the belief to be protected. To establish whether the belief is protected, go through a thorough review of the relevant facts and apply them to the guidelines set out in Grainger v Nicholson and subsequent case law…

June 5, 1918 — Jan. 13, 2007
BELLEVUE — Louis J. Forunato, 88, of Bellevue, died Saturday after a brief illness.
He was born June 5, 1918 in Tiffin to the late Joseph and Pasqualena (Cajoni) Foruanto.
He attended St. Mary's School in Tiffin and joined the Civilian Conservation Corps serving there in 1935 and 1936. He enlisted in the Army March 17, 1941 and was assigned to the Signal Corps in the China-Burma-India Theater during World War II. He was honorably discharge in November 1945 and earned the Bronze Star, the Good Conduct Medal, Meritorious Unit Award and other Asia-Pacific Theater decorations and citations.
Louis married his beloved wife, Laura (Guemelata) of 54 years on Oct. 4, 1952 and resided in Bellevue until Sept. 2006 when they moved closer to family in Toledo. He was employed at the Whirlpool Corp. in Clyde retiring after 29 years of service in 1980.
He was a life member of the VFW, the Club Amer-Ital and Bellevue Immaculate Conception Church. He enjoyed playing cards, boxing, football and baseball, particularly attending his grandson's games, and was also a hunter and fisherman. Most of all he was a loving, caring and generous husband, father, grandfather and friend. He will be remembered for his tremendous sense of humor and pleasant personality.
He is survived by his wife, Laura; a son, Dan; a daughter-in-law, Jeannine (Lovejoy), a grandson, all of Toledo; a sister, Antionette Folk of Tiffin; and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his brother, Dan; and sisters, Vita Perna and Nagela Blazer.

Cheapside Hoard puts 17th-century bling on display
nepal Diamonds may be forever, but a lot of jewelry doesn't survive through the centuries. Rings and bracelets get broken up for re-use, pearls decay, gold is melted down.
That explains the excitement over a new London exhibition of the Cheapside Hoard - a trove of almost 500 gemstones and pieces of jewelry from the 16th and 17th centuries, dug up by workmen demolishing a building in London more than 100 years ago.
The dazzling array of opals, emeralds, garnets, rubies, sapphires, amethysts, diamonds and more is displayed as a whole for the first time at the Museum of London from Friday.
The trove, which was buried under the brick-lined cellar floor of jewelers' workshops, offers a glimpse into 17th-century fashion, London life and the jewelry trade. It is also an unsolved historical mystery: Why was the priceless collection buried? And why did its owner never return to dig it up?
Exhibition curator Hazel Forsyth says the most likely explanation is the English Civil War, which erupted in 1642, bringing fear to London and devastation to the luxury trade.
"An awful lot of goldsmiths and jewelers went, the records say, to be soldiers - and a very large proportion didn't come back," she said.
The hoard's owners also may have been jewelers who decided to bury their stock and move abroad until peace returned - "and that secret went with them."
One engraved gemstone bears the name of Viscount Stafford, a title awarded in 1640, meaning the hoard was buried sometime between then and 1666, when the area's buildings were destroyed in the Great Fire of London.
It lay undisturbed for almost 300 years until it was discovered in 1912 by construction workers demolishing a building in Cheapside, a busy commercial thoroughfare in the oldest part of London, the City. They took it to a pawnbroker who - fortunately - offered it to a trustee of the Museum of London.
The gems caused a sensation when they were displayed in 1914, but have never been shown as a complete collection until now.
The exhibition reveals an era, like our own, attracted by opulence. British ships were exploring the world, returning with new goods and products. The hoard includes gems from India, emeralds from Colombia and even a cameo of Cleopatra from ancient Rome.
Clothing was richly embroidered, and "jewels had to dazzle to stand out," said museum fashion curator Beatrice Behlen.
Eye-catching exhibits include chains of gemstones and blue-and-white enameled flowers up to 15 feet (4.5 meters) long, worn looped around the neck and body. There are emerald earrings shaped like bunches of grapes; bracelets of pearls, rubies, amethysts and diamonds; and the wonderfully named bodkins - bejeweled pins given as love tokens.
There's a tiny, exquisite scent bottle decorated with opals, diamonds, rubies and sapphires - and a recreated 17th-century perfume, strong and spicy, that visitors can sniff to enhance the experience.
Curators say that in this case, an old cliche is true. The hoard is priceless - there's no equivalent collection to measure it against. Some of the items are unique, such as a tiny watch made from a single Colombian emerald crystal.

House stays awake. He doesn't want to miss any of it. It's Wilson's last lecture, and House feels he owes it to him to listen. In any case, there's very little else he can do other than sit with Wilson, and play with the bobbles on the green wool blanket, and listen to whatever Wilson is rambling on about.
Fandom: House, M.D.
Pairing: H/W
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Sex, alcohol abuse, dangerous driving, mention of suicidal intentions
Summary They're getting ready for bed, stripping off jeans and t-shirts, turning on bedside lamps and throwing back the bedclothes on their twin motel beds, when Wilson starts to cough.

Set after the end of Season 8, so spoilers for that storyline
Fandom: House, M.D.
Pairing: H/W
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Sex, kink, medical play (very mild - no instruments or blood or scalpels or needles. Gloves. There are some gloves in there).
Summary During these times, Wilson keeps House occupied, like a cat owner distracting its pet with a sparkling feathered toy, until the next case comes along and the danger of despondency is over

As it is widely agreed that because such a ban would be unenforceable—as it flies in the face of both state and federal law—the object of right-to-lifers may be to appeal the issue through the courts in a challenge of Roe v. Wade.
As has been widely reported, much of the impetus behind the "Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Ordinance" came from national anti-abortion group Operation Rescue, who orchestrated a campaign against local clinic Southwestern Women's Options and doctors who perform late-term medical terminations there. Anti-abortion activists from all over the country descended on Albuquerque to drum up signatures requiring the City Council to include the late-term abortion ban on either a special election or mail-in ballot. Owing to a runoff in the District 7 Council election on Nov. 19, the measure is included in this special election.
Election day for the late-term abortion ban is Nov. 19. This is an important decision for voters, and as usual, there is no need to wait for election day to voice your opinion. Absentee voting began Oct. 25, and early voting begins Oct. 30. Until Friday, Nov. 15, you may cast your early vote at the following 12 locations. Polls are open from 9am to 6pm, Monday through Friday. To download an absentee ballot, visit bit.ly/abvoteabq prior to Nov. 15. Cast your in-person absentee ballot at either the City Clerk's Office or the City of Albuquerque Records Center.

Threatens to dissolve city Corporation Council with special officers
Coming down heavily on AIADMK councillors in the Chennai Corporation for indulging in corrupt practices and exceeding all limits in committing irregularities, Chief Minister Jayalalithaa on Tuesday warned them that unless they mended their ways, she might be forced to dissolve the city Corporation Council.
She gave them a dressing down at a closed-door meeting in the wake of complaints of corruption and illegal activities against city councillors, party sources said.
A section of the media had carried reports that councillors were demanding money for works in their wards.
"I will wait till the end of next month. If I continue to receive complaints, I will dissolve the Council and run it with special officers," she warned.
According to the sources, the Chief Minister even read out the names of many councillors, including women representatives, from a list she had and made it clear that she would no longer tolerate their actions. Besides names, she mentioned the allegations against them. The AIADMK has 168 councillors, including 66 women in the Corporation Council.
Ms. Jayalalithaa told them that in the election that would be held to the Corporation Council after its dissolution, none of the existing members would be re-nominated for party tickets.
The party sources said some of her remarks indicated that she was also unhappy with representatives in other local bodies in the State.
Underscoring that "excesses" by DMK councillors during the previous regime played a major role in the DMK losing power, she said she had information that AIADMK councillors were collecting money from every possible source.
"When a multi-storeyed building is constructed, you go and collect commission. If a person stores sand or gravel in front of his house for construction purposes, you demand money from him," she said.
Some women councillors came under severe criticism.

"needed something simple but elegant, yet not too pretentious. this is the perfect card! the process was easy to follow and suggestions on improvements were a great idea! i waited a little longer to start the inviting process so i needed to receive the order in a hurry, and was very pleasantly surprised when the order arrived so much quicker than stated!! will definitely use this company again!!"
