9/6/13 Mila & Ashton Engaged?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Friday, September 6, 2013
19-year-old DAKOTA FANNING is dating a 32-year-old guy. That's a 13-year difference. His name is Jamie Strachan, and he's a model. They've been dating for several months, at least.
MILA KUNIS was spotted wearing a gold band on her finger in Los Angeles the other day. And yes, it was THAT finger.
Does this mean she and ASHTON KUTCHER are engaged? We have no idea. What we DO know is that they're not married . . . because Ashton and DEMI MOORE aren't officially divorced yet. A "source" says Ashton has TALKED about proposing . . . quote, "They are clearly very much in love, in tune with each other and so comfortable. In some ways, it's like they're married already."
A hand was photographed sticking out the window of a party van that JUSTIN BIEBER and his friends were riding in. And that hand was dumping BONG WATER onto the street. There's no word if it was Justin's hand.
There's been some speculation as to whether LAMAR ODOM really checked into rehab. Well, "People" magazine says he DID check in on Wednesday . . . but he checked back OUT yesterday.
RadarOnline says that wherever Lamar is, he's been keeping the Kardashian clan . . . including his wife KHLOE . . . in the dark about it. A source says, quote, "For him to cut Khloe out is just a knife in her back. Khloe has reached out to Lamar's sports agent but has got no information about Lamar's whereabouts."
9/5/13 Lamar Odom in Rehab

ALYSSA MILANO dropped a fake SEX TAPE for Funny or Die.com, in which she accidentally kicks the camera while she's trying to film herself getting it on with some dude . . . and it ends up facing a TV on which a newscaster is discussing the conflict in Syria.
CLINT EASTWOOD'S impending divorce just got a little more complicated. His estranged wife DINA is reportedly back together with a high school boyfriend, and Clint is nailing the guy's ex-wife. It's not clear which relationship started first.
"In Touch Weekly" says that 43-year-old -GWEN STEFANI is pregnant again. If this is true, the child in her paper-thin womb will be the third for Gwen and her husband GAVIN ROSSDALE, who's 47.
LAMAR ODOM has reportedly entered rehab. Details are scarce, but a source says, quote, "He realized he needs help." We have no idea where he went or how long he plans to stay . . . but he was seen in public this past weekend, so he must have just gone in within the past few days.
No big shocker here: KANYE WEST and KIM KARDASHIAN are already spoiling their newborn daughter North. According to "OK!" magazine, the kid already has twenty $800 cashmere blankets, a 1,300-square-foot nursery and a photographer who comes to take pictures of her twice a week. Oh, and she also owns a tiara and a $200,000 ruby pendant.
Forbes.com has put out their list of The Highest-Paid TV Actresses. "Modern Family" star SOFIA VERGARA is #1, with $30 million in earnings over the past year. KALEY CUOCO and MARISKA HARGITAY were a distant second, with $11 million apiece.
9/4/13 Miley Says She Made History

Wednesday, September 4, 2013
SIMON COWELL has been talking lately about feeling "paternal" and being excited for the birth of his baby. But he's not excited about EVERYTHING. One thing he's not looking forward to is diaper changing. He says, quote, "I'm not doing that, 100% absolutely not going near that!"
MILEY CYRUS claims everyone is overreacting to her "VMA" performance, and says she "didn't even think about it" when she was doing it. But she totally contradicts herself when she says, quote, "You're wanting to make history. Me and Robin [Thicke] the whole time said, 'You know we're about to make history right now.'"
According to a new poll conducted by "60 Minutes" and "Vanity Fair", PRINCESS DIANA is the celebrity we'd most like to bring back from the dead. And actually she was the runaway winner. Diana got 35% of the vote, followed by STEVE JOBS with only 14%. MICHAEL JACKSON and WHITNEY HOUSTON tied for third with 11%. HEATH LEDGER got 9%, KURT COBAIN got 6% and JAMES GANDOLFINI got 3%.
KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN did a meet-and-greet at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas over the weekend. But what a lot of fans didn't know when they showed up was that they had to pay $150 PER PERSON to meet her. In fact, they were already in line for HOURS before someone came out and handed them flyers informing them of the fee. Those who actually paid it said they were rushed in and out so quickly, it was barely worth it. One woman who took her two kids to meet Kourtney was NOT happy. She claims she even called the day before and was told she didn't have to pay to meet Kourtney. She says, quote, "Don't they have enough money? . . . I'm not a fan anymore."
A drug dealer in New York City says Lamar Odom spent $50,000 on cocaine in three years. The dealer says he witnessed Odom use the drug on 10 occasions since 2010 when Lamar visited Queens in New York where he grew up. The man says Odom likes to party and his drug problem is getting worse.
9/3/13 Kim K Posing Nude?
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, September 3, 2013
KIM KARDASHIAN may be ready to take her clothes off for us again. On an upcoming episode of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" . . . filmed while she was still pregnant . . . Kim says, quote, "As soon as I pop this thing out, I want to do 'Playboy' or some nude shoot." Kim posed for "Playboy" in 2007 . . . and when they re-printed the photos in 2010, she wasn't happy. At the time she said, quote, "I'm sorry I did 'Playboy'. I was uncomfortable." On a related note, KRIS JENNER admits in a future episode that she and her husband BRUCE made a SEX TAPE.
The website Hollyscoop.com has put together a list of Stars Who Used to Be Strippers. Some of them might surprise you. The list includes . . .
Channing Tatum
Brad Pitt (As a student at the University of Missouri, he was a member of a group called the DANCING BARES.)
Lady Gaga (She was stripping at the age of 18.)
Catherine Zeta-Jones (She did it briefly, and only to earn enough money for a nose job.)
Javier Bardem (He did it once, when he was 20.)
Just days after the news came out that CLINT EASTWOOD and his wife DINA were divorcing, Clint was seen with a "mystery woman." Sources say she spent the night at his house, and he drove her to the airport the next morning. But yesterday Dina Tweeted, quote, "I don't like reading negative things about Clint. He is a wonderful, good natured, brilliant person. No matter what, I attest to that."
JUSTIN BIEBER and his crew are still under investigation for a nightclub assault. But over the weekend, Justin was the VICTIM of an assault at a Toronto club called Uniun. Sources say a guy tried to bum-rush Justin and tackle him as he was walking to the dance floor. He got a hold of Justin's shirt before the chaos was broken up. Justin tried to go after the guy, but he was being held back, too. The attacker was kicked out of the club, but he left with a souvenir . . . one of Justin's gold chains.
12/2/13 Lamar Odom Arrested for DUI
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Monday, September 2, 2013
Lamar Odom's meltdown is continues in a big way. Odom was arrested for DUI Thursday night in Los Angeles after cops spotted his car driving only 50 miles per hour on a freeway. According to TMZ, Odom initially refused to acknowledge the cop's signal to pull over and drove past three exits until finally coming to a stop. He then failed several sobriety tests and was taken to a nearby police station, where he refused to take any chemical tests. Reportedly, Lamar's wife Khloe Kardashian is at the end of her rope and has once again kicked him out of the house until he can get clean and get his act together.
Kris and Bruce Jenner have been living separate lives lately but their relationship has reportedly hit a new low. According to reports, Kris hasn't been wearing her wedding ring and the couple hasn't had sex with each other in years. One source says, quote, "They've had problems for a long time and have been separated for months."
Amanda Bynes' doctors are recommending that she needs to be in the hospital long term to treat her mental illness. Amanda is being treated for a serious mental health disorder at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. Sources say doctors have been observing Amanda, and there has been some improvement but they say her diagnosis is complex. They believe she would benefit from prolonged treatment at UCLA for at least the rest of the year.

As the pace of Fragile X research accelerates, FRAXA funded research teams are leading the way
The research we fund spans the spectrum of basic science, pre-clinical, and clinical research — all coordinated to make the most of each dollar. We are developing several treatment strategies in parallel, since success is never certain when developing a drug. We continue to fund research to define the precise defect in the Fragile X brain, because these studies may yield additional important treatment targets.
In the words of FRAXA Scientific Advisor, Dr. Justin Fallon, "Fragile X is poised to become a triumph for translational research and the design of rational therapeutics for brain disease."

RIDGELAND – Katie Gordon was thrown out at home on the back end of a game-ending double play Thursday as Enterprise-Clarke held on for a 3-2 win over East Webster in the opening game of the Class 2A state championship series.
The win gives the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead in the best-of-three set, hosted at Ridgeland's Freedom Ridge Park, with the series set to resume with the second and, if needed, third game beginning Saturday at 11 a.m.
As a result of Enterprise-Clarke's series-opening win, East Webster now has its backs against the wall, but Wolverines first-year head coach Meleah Brown says her team may be able to benefit from Thursday's defeat.
"It's kind of like a wake-up call for us," said Brown. "We hadn't lost a playoff game yet, so it may be for the best that we lost so we won't be too confident going into (Saturday)."
While Brown's theory may well be true, East Webster came so close to pulling out Thursday's win.
The Wolverines put forth an early statement, taking a 1-0 lead in the first inning behind a two-out Swayze Hollenhead single followed by a run-scoring double by Bailey Williams.
Enterprise-Clarke quickly rebounded however, evening the score at 1-1 in the bottom of the first.
The score remained tied until the Bulldogs pulled ahead 2-1 with a solo home run in the middle innings.
By the seventh inning, Enterprise-Clarke held its 3-2 lead, but East Webster put up a last at-bat comeback attempt that fell just short.
With one out, Katie Gordon reached on error and Autumn Frost doubled to put runners at second and third.
When Cayley McClellan followed Frost's double with a ground ball to the pitcher, Enterprise-Clarke was able to throw McClellan out at first base and then nab Gordon at home plate as she tried to score upon the throw to first.
"It was so close," said Brown. "If that doesn't happen and (Gordon) stays at third, you've got runners at second and third with (Hollenhead) coming up to bat."
Instead, the Wolverines now must beat Enterprise-Clarke twice Saturday to claim the state title.
Though Thursday's loss was unquestionably tough, Brown says her club has what it takes to bounce back.
"I was frustrated and the girls were upset just because of the way we lost (Thursday), knowing we could have won the game," said Brown. "At the same time, we all know now what we're up against. I feel like if we can win the first game Saturday...usually whoever wins Game 2 is going to win the series because the momentum changes completely. If we can win and and gain that momentum, that'd be good. We're all ready."

Let's face it: Australia is just awash in coolness. From the Outback to Tasmania, the Land Down Under is filled with wondrous things that make eyes pop out of skulls and give anything we've got in America a run for its money. Consider, for example, this month's cover car.
Rick Werner is no stranger to Corvettes. While he had previously owned a pair of '78 Vettes as well as an '85, he had always been an admirer of the midyear models. After seeing a picture of a Nassau Blue '65 coupe on the Internet in March of 2000, Rick made arrangements to purchase the neglected Vette for the sum of $13,000 (US). Two months later, the Vette arrived from California with the help of Aussie specialty shop Corvette Queensland. The car was rumored to have been sitting under a tree for about 18 years, and when Rick saw it for the first time, he realized the rumors had been true.
From a distance the car looked great, its original paint still intact and looking fairly nice. But up close, the years of neglect were glaringly obvious. Anything made of metal on the car was virtually rusted away, from the window sills down to the fuel tank and lines. The chassis was still in one piece, however, showing only the normal surface rust associated with a 35-year-old car.
Once home with his new project, Rick's first order of business was removing the body from the chassis. Once the chassis was free, it was treated to a full sandblasting and repainted in semi-gloss black. Both the front and rear suspensions were treated to rebuilds, with Koni shocks and springs from Australian vendor King Springs installed in both positions. The front and rear were also lowered 2 inches to give the car a more aggressive ground-hugging stance. To ensure leak-free reliability and adequate stopping power, the brake calipers were overhauled with stainless-steel sleeves.
Rick then moved on to revitalizing and modifying the '65's body. The door frames and openings were filled and smoothed for a seamless appearance, new smooth aluminum rocker panels were fabricated, and Rick even fitted a raised '67 big-block scoop to the hood . . . er, "bonnet." The rear fenders were widened by 1 inch to accommodate wider rubber, and a custom Cobra fuel-filler cap was installed.
Next on the list was the powertrain. The engine hadn't been turned over since the last time the car was parked under that tree in California, and the water pump and alternator were hopelessly seized. Rick took everything apart for rebuilding. The non-original '72 small-block was given an overbore and a Scat stroker crank, yielding 388 ci of motivational muscle. Inside, Rick's engine features hypereutectic pistons, a complete Comp Cams valvetrain, and ported stock heads machined to accept bigger stainless valves. The car's Muncie four-speed was also treated to a full rebuild, while the stock rearend was stuffed with 3.36 gears.
New 17-inch Boyd's T3 wheels were fitted, along with 9.5-inch Falken tires out back and 8-inch Falken rubber on the front. From there, Rick went to work on replumbing the fuel and brake systems. Since the original gas tank was a goner, he fabricated a new stainless steel tank to store the car's go juice. Once this was done, new Energy Suspension body bushings and mounts were installed to keep the body-to-chassis fit snug and minimize rattles and flex.
Once the body was recoupled to the chassis, it was off to Kit's Crash Repairs, where Rick used one of the shop's booths to shoot the Vette in Lime Gold Metallic. The car then came back home for what Rick calls "the fun part"-reassembly of all its various parts and pieces.
The rear bumpers were bent and twisted, with some rust-through. The cost to replace these items in Australia would have been budget-breaking, so Rick took them and the rest of the car's trim pieces to Steve Robbins at Custom Chrome. Steve worked his magic and brought everything back to better-than-new condition.
While this was going on, the interior was receiving a makeover that included CRX bucket seats and new gray-tweed upholstery for everything, including the dash. From there, Rick fitted the carpet, then fabricated and covered the custom rear panels that hide the retractable seat belts and speaker housings. The instrument faces were stripped and repainted white for a more contemporary look. Audio duties are handled by a concealed Kenwood CD player that is remotely operated by controls mounted under the bottom spoke of the steering wheel. Rounding out the sound system are a 600-watt MTX amplifier, a 10-inch MTX Subwoofer, and a pair of 6-inch MTX front speakers.

New jobs come to Workington as fashion store is due to open
Last updated at 16:43, Friday, 09 November 2012
A new fashion shop will open in Workington town centre next week, creating 10 jobs.
Select Fashion will move into an empty unit in Ivison Lane on Thursday.
Its launch will come two weeks before clothing chain H&M is due to open the doors of its new store in Risman Place.
It will be the third shop that Select Fashion has had in Workington.
The company had a unit at Dunmail Park until 2008, and a previous store in Ivison Lane was taken over by Edinburgh Woollen Mill in 2004.
It will employ two full-time staff and eight part-time workers. It will take over a unit previously occupied by Paperbox and more recently Kiss Cards, which closed in August.
The national women's fashion shop offers low-price popular fashion, with boots for less than £20 and jeans starting from £10.
H&M's store, opposite Debenhams, will take up four empty units and has created 30 jobs.
Dave Fletcher, development manager for Washington Square, said: "We want Workington to become a retail hub for West Cumbria and with these two new fashion stores we have the potential to become the fashion capital of West Cumbria.
"This is a massive coup and will help us to attract more shoppers to the town.
"It will save them money in the long run because they will not have to travel to Carlisle.
"We have to try to attract the big retail chains.
"We're nearly 98 per cent full on Washington Square which I'm delighted with. We only have two big units and one small unit to fill, although we have people interested in these so it's only a matter of time."
Martin O'Rourke, a director of Riddelltps Limited, managing agent for Washington Square, said: "We are delighted to welcome Select into our shopping precinct and look forward to further new tenants starting to trade."
Another unit in Washington Square was filled this week when Warian Kapur opened Mobile Booth in the former Shake It Up premises, on Campbell-Savours Way.
Mr Fletcher said he was still trying to drum up interest for the former JJB Sport store on Steelmen Walk.
It closed in October after JJB Sport went into administration and 14 staff lost their jobs.

Have your say
The former JJB is far too small for Primark. Don't you think the owners would have tried to get Primark if there was the space? It would appear the public want Greggs mobile phone shops etc as otherwise they wouldn't be there. Shops respond to what customers want.
Primark is rubbish. At the end of the day there are lots of Greggs, phone shops eyc because that's what people in workington want to buy (or they would shut) - Debenhams in workington apparently makes more money than the one in Carlisle!

but you can use silverlight just fine on linux (well not official silverlight but from my experience it works just as good) http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/
Not until netflix changes their encoding scheme, or microsoft gets with the program and writes more unix software. netflix relies on silverlight technology, developed by the big M.
It is possible, like on the WesternDigital Live boxes, to write a secure app for netflix for specific unix distros. Yes I can see it coming to this distribution. But generically speaking, its unlikley netflix will be supported in unix, kinda like BluRay or DVD. (of course anythings possible with work-arounds/emulators/hackery, like DeCSS)
so that should be a non issue i would think. official silverlight support would be nice but in the meantime this works just fine

President's Speeches and Remarks
Tuesday, August 27, 2002
Good afternoon and welcome. I'm Barry Mills, president of the College. I'm pleased to welcome you to Bowdoin College and the Bowdoin community. The Bowdoin Community—you'll hear those words a good deal over the next four years, as your children make their way through their time here at Bowdoin. That's what we are—a community of students, faculty, staff, alumni, and you as parents as well.
To those of you who have long been a part of our Bowdoin community⎯dare I say family⎯welcome back to Bowdoin. It is especially gratifying that you have the continued confidence in your College to entrust us with your sons and daughters.
I've been a part of this community since I entered Bowdoin as a first-year student in 1968. Back then, Bowdoin had fewer than 1000 students—all of them men, most of them from New England and the Middle Atlantic states. It was an exciting place to be and a challenging time for the College. My Class of '72 was the "nifty" Class⎯a group of unique individuals admitted in order to create a well-rounded class. We were caught up in the passions of the time—student demonstrations, strikes even, the draft, the Viet Nam War and concerns for the future of our democracy.
When I stood before the parents of the Class of 2005 last year, the first class I welcomed to Bowdoin as its new president, we all sat in a relatively satisfied position⎯ in a world that was relatively calm and more financially secure. What a difference a mere 12 months can make. The students of the Class of 2006 enter Bowdoin, I am sorry to say, in a much more uncertain time for our nation and the world. Much has been written about recent generations of young people⎯the drive for success, their keen focus on stepping-stones for the future, the fact that they really had never experienced tragedy or conflict on a national level the way past generations had. But, that cannot be said of our Class of 2006, the events of the past year have changed their lives and our lives in fundamental ways.
Bowdoin is a dynamic place, with a history dating back to 1794. This campus has seen much of the history of the United States. As many of the Class of 2006 begin their time at Bowdoin, they will lead Bowdoin into this new time in our history⎯and they are remarkably able and prepared to do so.
In many ways the College has not changed all that much from its beginnings in 1794. We remain committed to our core values⎯the liberal arts education, rigorous academic and intellectual pursuit, sound mind and body and the never ending desire to work for the "common good." The college remains engaged with the future of our country, the world and our environment, educating a new generation of leaders, encouraging participation in community service here and abroad, working to appreciate and preserve our environment.
And, there is the flourishing Bowdoin community. We are honored that you have entrusted Bowdoin with your sons and your daughters. They will find here a caring and intellectually thriving environment from which they will move into adulthood. Bowdoin is a place that helps young men and women leave their comfort zones and discover new talents. It is a place where they are encouraged to seek challenges, and where they will know friends among the alumni, faculty, and staff.
This College has an impressive history. Quality, integrity and a commitment to principled leadership are in the bones of this place. Among the graduates who walked here were Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Nathaniel Hawthorne—remarkably from the same Class of 1825; U. S. President Franklin Pierce; publisher, and Bowdoin's first African-American graduate, John Brown Russwurm; and Civil War heroes Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, a president of Bowdoin, and Otis Howard, the founder of Howard University in Washington D.C.; Senators George Mitchell and Bill Cohen; Joan Benoit Samuelson and countless others. But however grand Bowdoin's history, its future is just as bright. Your children will be a part of that future, and you should be very proud. Proud of them, and proud of the work you've done raising them. I hope you'll also be proud to be a part of Bowdoin.
The College received more than 4500 applications for admission this year⎯the second highest total in 207 years. You can imagine how difficult it was to select a first year class from among the 4500 applicants. We were able to accept only 24% of the students who applied. Your sons and daughters are incredibly bright. Nearly 80% of those who were ranked were in the top 10% of their graduating class, 20 are National Merit Scholars. And they are incredibly accomplished. They sing, act, play myriad musical instruments, dance, lead student governments, play sports, and participate extensively in public service. They are wonderfully interested, inquisitive people ready for Bowdoin's challenges. Your children represent the best and the brightest.
These are challenging times for all of us. And it is in these times that we must redouble our efforts to deliver on our promise and to achieve all of our aspirations. We are committed to the excellence of this College. One aspect of excellence for us means that we are a campus with a vast array of experiences and perspective. This means that we must create and maintain access to Bowdoin to the best and the brightest from around America and the world. I am proud to say that this Class of 2006 is in many ways the most diverse class in Bowdoin's history. Diverse in the broadest sense⎯geographically, socio-economically, racially and internationally.
I understand that a Bowdoin education is very, very expensive⎯it is critically important to us to ensure that we continue to have the financial resources to make access to Bowdoin available to every young man or woman who wants to come here and should be with us. Bowdoin is fortunate that it is among the relatively few colleges that are still able to admit students without consideration of financial need and to meet the full need of all of admitted students for all four years of College. We are fortunate that these values are supported by generations of Bowdoin students who are now alums and friends of the College and who have supported the College financially so that our endowment allows us to support this important priority of the College.
Bowdoin is, quite simply, one of the very best colleges in the country. It provided a great education when I came here as a student, but it's even better now. (I've said to those Bowdoin students of my generation that I had to congratulate them for becoming so much brighter⎯they got smarter without doing anything at all, as Bowdoin's academic program has increased and its reputation along with it; people just assume we are a whole lot brighter than we are). To say you went to Bowdoin meant something in 1972, it means a whole lot more today.
What is Bowdoin? In many ways, in the most important way, it is embodied in our dedicated, brilliant faculty. They are first and foremost dedicated teachers, scholars of uncommon excellence. They are also talented, accomplished scholars that create for us an intellectual community that is vibrant, rigorous and challenging. They devote a huge amount of time to working with students on independent projects or just offering their friendship and advice. A brief observation⎯every generation of Bowdoin students leaves Bowdoin with the experience of knowing one or two faculty members who profoundly influenced their lives. No Bowdoin generation believes that the succeeding generations could have such important relationships. And yet every generation replicates those relationships. Our academic mission is the core of what Bowdoin is about⎯and our faculty constitutes that core.
Our College is a residential liberal arts college. What that means is that we believe that it is important and of value for our students to spend the better part of four years on this campus learning in the classroom but also from their peers in this residential setting. We are committed to the importance of the life of the College since at Bowdoin there are important opportunities to learn and grow in this residential community⎯an opportunity for learning that is different from a big university or even distance learning in front of a computer. Bowdoin believes that there is more to being educated than merely gathering and accumulating facts and information. It is the shared enterprise of learning⎯from faculty, staff, coaches, administrators and fellow students in an intense four year residential experience that sets this College apart in important ways from other forms of collegiate education.
Just 6 years ago your sons and daughters would be entering a College where the life on this campus outside the classroom was, for many, centered on fraternities. Bowdoin has made the bold and important decision to eliminate fraternities, and they are now gone from this campus. Today, we have a college house system that is not based on exclusion or self-selection, but rather inclusion. Our campus is a community of engaged participants⎯working for the common good of one Bowdoin.
Our mission is "to engage students of uncommon promise in an intense full-time education of their minds, exploration of their creative faculties, and development of their leadership abilities" within a liberal arts setting. I imagine that many of you may have been somewhat apprehensive when your son or daughter began seriously considering a liberal arts college. Why come to a liberal arts college? What does a degree in English, or perhaps art, lead to? Is the science curriculum strong enough at a liberal arts college to prepare a student for serious work in graduate school? Let me tell you, a liberal arts education, especially one from Bowdoin College will serve your children in countless ways. I will leave much of the discussion of our academic program to Craig McEwen, our dean for academic affairs⎯but let me speak a bit about something I know a good deal about⎯careers.
You hear a lot today about education that, in a very focused way, prepares for a career. Students are majoring in information systems, engineering, business, even⎯dare I say⎯the law— they have learned early the notion of specialization. There's nothing wrong with having a plan for the future, and at Bowdoin your children will have the opportunity to accomplish their goals, whatever they may be. Bowdoin graduates go on to become leaders in medicine, in science, in business, in public service, in law, in education, and in any other career you could name. If your daughter wants to be a corporate executive, Bowdoin will give her the tools she needs to get there. If your son wants to be a high school teacher, Bowdoin will start him on his way. But an education at Bowdoin—at a residential, liberal arts college—will teach them more than an expertise in their chosen discipline. Bowdoin teaches students to think independently, to challenge assumptions, to write with clarity, and to listen to and understand different points of view. It will give them the foundation they need to remain lifelong learners and to be ethical leaders.
A Bowdoin education has an additional characteristic: an emphasis on serving the "Common Good," which is another phrase you'll hear a lot in the coming years. The College's first president, Joseph McKeen, established the ideal of serving the Common Good as a guiding principle for Bowdoin. "Literary institutions," he said, "are founded and endowed for the Common Good and not for the private advantage of those who resort to them for education." The College, chartered at the dawn of the American Republic, was meant for the "benefit of society."
Bowdoin has encouraged that ideal, and it is embodied in the lives and work of people like George Mitchell, Class of 1954, who has worked for peace in Northern Ireland and in the Middle East; like Andy Reicher, Class of 1972, Geoff Canada, Class of 1974, and Ellen Baxter, Class of 1975, who were at Bowdoin with me, and who have dedicated their lives to making a better future for the people of New York City.
With the idea of serving the Common Good in mind, I hope you will encourage your children to be active participants in our larger community. Nearly three-quarters of Bowdoin students are involved in community service, translating last year alone to 20,000 volunteer hours.
Becoming a part of the Bowdoin community means becoming a part of Brunswick and of Maine. The College would not be the same if it were in any other place. Maine is a beautiful and peaceful place, one that will feed their spirits. But it is also a living laboratory for Bowdoin students and one that will feed their minds.
I invite you as parents to be a part of Bowdoin as well. Last week in the New York Times, Judith Shapiro, the president of Barnard College in New York wrote an op-ed piece about getting parents off the college campus. President Shapiro wrote about the extent to which parents are involved in education of their children, viewing college as another consumer product to be delivered to their family. President Shapiro wrote of the intensity with which parents become involved in the admissions process and their students courses and grades once they are at college. Now, I won't pretend to say that there wasn't on this campus from some a muffled roar in support of President Shapiro's view. But, as Karen and I have children approaching college age, we of your generation. We understand the pressures we all feel for our children to succeed and to want to do right by them. So, as a president and a parent, as in all matters, this is an issue of balance.
We at Bowdoin welcome you to our community. We want you to be an important part of Bowdoin for the next four years and beyond. Read the parents letters, log onto the Web site for college news, subscribe to the student newspaper, come and cheer the Bowdoin Polar Bears on the playing fields, come to the art shows, theatre productions and debate competitions. Question your sons and daughters about what they're learning. Test their ability and growth in analyzing problems and communicating. But please remember that this is their time to try new things⎯to take classes they may find difficult, to learn a new art form, to try a new sport or outdoor activity. We know from experience that some will not succeed in all that they do here, but nearly all will succeed in much that Bowdoin has to offer, and succeed in truly remarkable ways. So, most of all, encourage your sons and daughters to be passionate in their Bowdoin experience, to get lost in generous enthusiasms for learning.
Welcome to Bowdoin.
Now let me introduce you to the Dean for Academic Affairs⎯Craig McEwen. Craig presides over our faculty and curriculum. Craig has spent 25 years (+) as a professor of Sociology of Bowdoin. He is a legend on this campus, a man of excellent judgment and a friend. He will speak to you today about our academic program.

SC highway commissioner opposes cutting I-26 trees
CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Not everyone is pleased with state Transportation Department plans to cut all the trees in the median on heavily traveled Interstate 26 between I-95 and Summerville.
The department said last week it wants to clear the trees and put up a center guard rail in the median. Between 2007 and 2011 there were almost 2,000 crashes on that section of the interstate causing 44 deaths and 709 injuries.
But state Highway Commissioner Jim Rozier says he's heard from a lot of people who don't want the trees removed. Rozier says the trees don't cause the accidents.
He says there are other ways to improve safety on the highway. He plans to bring the issue up at the transportation commission meeting Thursday in Columbia.
You have indicated this comment should be removed.
The comment has been submitted for review. Thank you .

These beautiful trees should not be cut down! I drive this highway all the time. The trees bring a welcome reprieve from the monotony of concrete, and add an enjoyment of nature, not often found on the interstate. People drive way too fast along here, probably because they never see police cars waiting in the bushes to catch them. We need to hold on to whatever trees we have left in the world. The planet is changing too rapidly and we must conserve our natural resources!114716341

Cutting down the trees and erecting a guard rail is NOT the answer. Foolhearted speeders should be ADDRESSED personally - one ticket - revoke the driver's license! MADD needs to get behind the SPEEDERS....drinking while driving is illegal as is SPEEDING - BOTH K-I-L-L!!!!!!!!!!114075916

Guggenheim. Falaise, long a private domain, was open to the county' on guided-tour basis Sunday, (May 20). Congressman Angelo D. Roncallo, <K-Massapeo.ua> joined, with several other Nassau County government officials to observe the Nassau County Solidarity Day sponsored by the Long Island Committee on Soviet Jewry. Roncallo, a co-sponser of the Vanick Bill which ties a more favorable trade agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union to the granting of freedom of emigration to Soviet citizens, pledged his continuing support to the Long Island Committee in their efforts on behalf of Soviet Jews. Shown left to right are: Assemblyman Stuart R. Levine, Bethpage; Mrs. Inez Weissman, President of the Long Island Com mil tee on Soviet Jews; Mr. Avraham Zalmanson, a Russian emigrant, and the uncle of four imprisoned Soviet Jews; Mrs. Lynn Singer, Vice President of the Committee; and Congressmen Angelo D. Roncallo. Yevoli Appointed To Board Post also been asked to serve as a panel member on the Codes and Ordinances, Highway and Sanitation committees. The Supervisor indicated that Town Board members are assigned to various committees to coordinate research Oyster Bay Town Supervisor .John W. Burke has announced that Councilman Lewis J. Yevoli has been selected to again serve as chairman of the standing hoard committee on Public Transportation. Burke stated that Yevoli has 10 cents per copy TOB HEARING: DELINQUENCY PREVENTATIVE The Oyster Bay Town Board held a public hearing Tuesday night, May 22, concerning the application filed by Mobilized Community Resources, a non-profit organization, to conduct a supervised temporary home for homeless or troubled boys. A special use permit is required for the prospective site of a two-story frame house at 218 Broadway, Bethpage, which would house no more than six hoys between 16 and 19 for a period of )tt> Jo six months who have not been involved With the law. Mr. Herbert Balin, lawyer for MCR, presented an overview of the project to the Board. The preventive aspect of,, this facility was stressed, a concept that has never been fully explored by any organization before. Although Nassau County does have facilities for youths after they have become involved with the law, no such facilities currently exist for troubled youths whose problems are of a mOre personal nature. Mr. Balin outlined a brief financial prospectus of the project. The house is being purchased by MCR The down payment has been donated by the North Shore Unitarian Society. The rest of the purchase funds will be supplied by a bank mortgage of $33,000 which two individuals have agreed to co-sign as guarantors. The Ethical Humanist Society has granted $10,000 for necessary repairs on the house and is seeking physical donations of furnishings. The Nassau Youth Board has allocated $49,000 to cover the first year's operating costs. MCR has not applied for tax exemption although they are eligible. The next question discussed was who will be by Shari Miller chosen to have the privelege of living in this house. A married couple w i t h professional backgrounds in the fields of social work will serve as the "house parents." Referrals of youths will come from clergymen, High School Guidance Counselers, families,' and the Youth Board. An involved screening process will be followed, which was described by Ms. Susan Bendor from the Comprehensive Community Health Center. First, the young man will :Jbte>,. .; placed in an Emergency Housing Program family for 2 weeks, during which time a professional worker will be assigned to the boy who will draw up a case history of him. All alternatives will be explored and every attempt made to maintain the youngster in his family. If this is not immediately possible, a plan will be drawn up by the worker and the youngster to reunite him with his family through counseling or to insure his capability for independant'" survival within the next six months. The Screening Committee, made up of professionals and the house parents, would then study the youngster's case and reach a decision as to whether the "group home" would *" be the right solution for the boy. Monthly evaluations would then be continued by the Screening Committee. The boy and the worker would be involved in an on-going process toward the achievement of his specified goals during his stay in the house. Much concern was expressed by the Bethpage residents present at the hearing. The fear that this facility would be an incentive for others to leave home was expressed. There was protest against the facility serving not only Bethpage youths, but also some from Levittown, Hicksville', East Meadow, Syosset, or Plainview. Some residents objected to b r i n g i n g "problem children" into the neighborhood. Mrs. Alalu of Bethpage claimed that there was "something mighty fishy here." Other residents complained that the plan sounded "amateurish" and "too many questions were left unanswered.'' , , Yet many other residents strongly urged the Board to approve MCR's application, citing pride in their cbmmunity''s housing of such a worthwhile, loving project. Ms, Edwards, a Bethpage resident who has served with her husband as parents in the Emergency Housing Program, said it was the town's responsibility to answer the cry of these "children trying very hard to stay out of trouble" who "are turning to us for assistance." Leo Schottland, owner of Bethpage Tool and Hardware, said he would be honored if his was the first community to pioneer such a project, urging the Board to "let Bethpage be pioneers." Mrs. Butehorn, a resident of Bethpage for 27 years, said, "when you're rejected you need help and that's, what this house is about." Both sides presented their views to the receptive Oyster Bay Town Board, who now have the responsibility to consider very carefully this application which could affect the lives of some very confused youngsters who, as Bill Graham of Bethpage noted, "just need a chance."

Color Magic™ Barbie® Doll
A favorite vintage Barbie® doll inspires this wonderful re-creation that brings back all the memories! Color Magic™ Barbie doll wears a multi-colored bathing suit in the original diamond print. Her straight black hair, pulled back with a headband, plays against her red lipstick, painted finger and toe nails, and lovely side-glancing eyes. She comes in her complete original outfit which included her highly sought after outfit Bloom Bursts, which is an organza floral print dress with matching pink organza bonnet.
Accessories include hair net, 3 colorful hair ribbons, and 4 barrettes. Reproductions of the sponge applicator, faux color change packets, and instruction booklet capture all the original charm. Unlike the 1966 Color Magic™ Barbie®, this doll does not have a color change function.
Production doll may vary from the photo shown above. Mattel reserves the right to modify the fashion/fabrics, sculpt, hair color/style, and accessories. Doll cannot stand alone as shown.

Some brown rot, suture bulge, soft on tip, poor taste
Yellow, melting flesh, clingstone nectarine released from Univ. of Arkansas in 2002. Plant Patent #12622. Resistant to bacterial spot. The new and distinct variety of nectarine originated from a hand pollinated cross of Arkansas Nectarine Selection 172 (non-patented).times.Arkansas Nectarine Selection 176 (non-patented) made in 1977 at the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station Fruit Substation at Clarksville, Ark. The parent plants used in this hybridization have not been named and released and are unavailable in commerce.
Plants and fruit of this new variety differ phenotypically from its parents. The new variety is earlier ripening and possesses larger fruit size, better flavor, and more attractive fruit than the parent Arkansas Selection 172, and is earlier ripening, more productive, and has better flavor, more colorful fruit and greater disease resistance than the parent Arkansas Selection 176. Both the parents and the instant variety are the genus and species Prunus persica. The new variety ripens its fruit very early, before either of the parent nectarines and before most extant nectarine cultivars.
The seeds resulting from this controlled hybridization were germinated in a greenhouse in the spring of 1978 and planted in a field on the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station in Clarksville, Ark. The seedlings fruited during the summer of 1980 and one, designated Arkansas 236, was selected for its very early ripening, attractive fruit shape and color, good fruit quality, and resistance to bacterial spot. During 1980, the original plant selection was propagated asexually, at the above noted location, by budding onto standard peach rootstock variety `Lovell` (non-patented) and a test plot of two plants was established. Subsequently, larger test plantings have been established with asexually multiplied plants at two additional locations in Arkansas (Clarksville and Hope, Ark.).
The new variety has been asexually multiplied several times since 1980 at this location by budding onto `Lovel` peach rootstock and no incompatibility with peach rootstocks has occurred following budding. During all asexual multiplication, the characteristics of the original plant have been maintained and no aberrant phenotypes have appeared.
Plants of the new variety are vigorous and productive, and trees are standard in size, well branched and symmetrical with an upright growth habit, comparable to other nectarine or peach trees (Prunus persica). Trees express a high level of resistance to both foliar and fruit infection of bacterial spot [Xanthomonas campestris pv. pruni (Smith) Dye]. The new variety consistently is more resistant to bacterial spot than are the standard nectarine varieties `Redgold` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 1,329) and `Summer Beaut` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,309). The new variety blooms in the spring with `Summer Beaut` and 1 to 2 days later than `Redgold`. No winter cold injury has been observed on wood or buds of the new variety in Arkansas tests where minimum temperatures have reached -23.degree. C. Chilling requirement to break dormancy is estimated to be 750 hours below 7.degree. C.
Fruit of the new variety ripens very early, averaging 4 weeks earlier than `Summer Beaut`, 6 weeks before `Redgold`, and 3 weeks before the reference peach variety, `Redhaven` (non-patented). Average ripening date is June 9 in west-central Arkansas. Despite the very early ripening, fruit of the new variety rarely has split pits, a serious fruit disorder common in most early ripening peaches and nectarines. Fruit yields have been good and have averaged equal to or higher than the comparison nectarine varieties `Redgold` and `Summer Beaut` in all test comparisons.
The fruit is round in shape, without a prominent tip or bulging suture. Fruits are attractive with 80% bright red, 20% yellow skin color. Fruit finish is good with no blemishes. The fruit skin is tender and occasionally cracks on fully ripe fruit following rainfall. The flesh of the fruit is bright yellow in color and has little red pigment in the flesh. Flesh is melting in texture but is firm and retains firmness well after maturity. Fruit is medium, averaging 109.6 g, and careful management of crop load is required to produce good fruit size.
The fresh fruit rates good in flavor, and is exceptionable favorful for a very early ripening nectarine. Fruits average 10.7% soluble solids and receive high scores in taste panels for flavor. The flavor is sweet and mildly subacid, with a distinct nectarine aroma.
The distinctive features of the new variety are its very early ripening, attractive flavorful firm fruits, good plant vigor and productivity, and its high level of resistance to bacterial spot.
The new variety has been named the `WESTBROOK` cultivar.
The description of each variety of peach or nectarine fruit under each group is in different formats as this information is collected from varied sources and hence is not consistent

The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation launched a partnership with The Huffington Post's "Small Business America" entrepreneurship blog today by posting the first of what will be regular columns written by the Foundation's economic and entrepreneurship experts.
The term entrepreneur has what I like to refer to as positive brand confusion. Whereas the opinions range in scale from the billion dollar company to the life style enterprise, most people nevertheless have a positive connotation of what an entrepreneur is. This post shows that an entrepreneurial mindset can exist almost anywhere people are paying attention to problems while working towards solutions.
For one week the world unites, across borders and languages, to celebrate entrepreneurs and innovators...to celebrate the world's job creators.
Startup America Partnership CEO Scott Case was asked about women entrepreneurs' lack of access to venture capital. Case said one challenge facing both women and minority entrepreneurs is "they're not visible to us." As a result, Faye Anderson launches "The Innovators" website.
I recently attended the 39th Annual Induction Ceremony for the National Inventors Hall of Fame. As it has been in years past, it was awe-inspiring and of significant historical interest.
This summer the Kauffman Foundation released The Startup Act. The comprehensive proposal for new legislation is aimed at jump-starting our nation's economy through more successful startups. The data supporting the purpose and contents of The Startup Act are compelling. But sometimes, a little visual helps too.
Last week, the Kauffman Foundation released "Overcoming the Gender Gap: Women Entrepreneurs as Economic Drivers." This white paper looks at the potential of women entrepreneurs to grow our economy.
Last spring, Athena Alliance, along with support from the Kauffman Foundation OECD, The Conference Board, and US National Academies, put together an inspiring conference on the role of intangible assets— information, workforce skills and know-how, effective management and marketing, business models, relations with suppliers and customers, software and databases, and intellectual property— in job creation and economic growth.
The White House's Startup America initiative shines a welcome light on the innovative, next-generation Midwest manufactures that are redefining manufacturing.

Why I Teach
I teach for the moments when my students take what we have discussed in class and build on it outside the classroom. With undergraduates, these moments may result in students putting leadership skills to work in a student organization, internship or service opportunity. With graduate students, they may result in a promotion at work or landing a coveted position at a respected company.
I teach for these "aha" moments, when it becomes clear that a student fully understands a concept covered in class — and builds on that concept to make a difference in the world.

But for now, I figured a thread would be helpful to some people who are having trouble finding certain things, or wish to provide help or tips using the phone.
- Fast Foward/Rewind in Audio: Sadly, you cannot skip through music/audio via a slider or tap-to a certain time. You can, however just hold the Next Track/Previous Track button to go forward and reverse in audio, just like the good ol' days of CDs and cassettes. Note: This only works in Xbox Music+Video application and not Nokia Music. I can't find any way to move through music in the Nokia Music app. They are intertwined though, when you start a song, so you can just go to the Music+Video app.
- Custom Ringtones: This one confused me for a while because, even in the phone it doesn't tell you this. To have a custom ringtone, you must hook the phone up to your PC via the provided USB cable. Then you must place any file under 30MB into the ringtones folder. Here is the tricky part: You must set the genre to "RINGTONE" (minus the quotations) within the MP3 file. This was a pain in the arse to figure out, as I couldn't find it anywhere in the manual, or on the phone itself.
