Bridgehampton's May Citizens Advisory Committee meeting was packed with candidates for and members of the Bridgehampton School Board. Over the weekend there had been a flurry of emails among CAC members debating the merits of having school board candidates discuss their positions on the eve of the election.
It had been decided by CAC Chair Fred Cammann via email to cancel the candidates' presentation. However, as people continued to arrive on Monday night, including Southampton Town Councilwoman, Anna Thorne-Holst, it became clear that Bridgehampton School families were expecting something to happen.
And it did, but only after an hour long official CAC meeting during which CAC member Ian MacPherson reported on transportation concerns, and Cammann listed off the pending application status of a number of CAC concerns such as the Ocean Road solar farm, the Bull's Head Project, and the Gunite plant.
The only agenda items that fostered conversation were the request from the Bridgehampton National Bank for a pedestrian walkway between the bank and the new Citarella on Montauk Highway, and a continuation of the discussion the CAC had last month with Town Supervisor Linda Kabot, about the operating rules for Southampton's appointed boards and how the local CACs can be more efficiently involved in the process.
Thorne-Holst mentioned, "I have asked Land Management to make developers' plans available to the CACs as soon as the applications come through. The town is having a meeting on this subject tomorrow. In the past we've had a problem with months going by before the community and neighbors hear about a plan, and its actually not that the developers don't want to hear from the public, its just that they don't want to change things later when it's too late and too expensive to do so. It's better to get the community input early on."
Thorne-Holst also commended the CAC for taking on the revisioning of the hamlet study themselves.
"In the past we have paid consultants to come to these meetings and listen to what people want, but this is a way to save yourselves a lot of tax dollars, and do it yourselves."
In terms of the walkway, opinions were mixed but tended to favor not having one put near Citarella's. In the end, discussion was tabled for further study and consideration.
At about 8 p.m., Cammann adjourned the official CAC meeting and stated, "In past years the CAC has discussed wonderfully controversial issues here and we've done it this way: I will call a motion to adjourn and whoever wants to stay can and we'll have an open school board discussion."
After a few people, including Councilwoman Throne-Holst, left, Ron White, a school board candidate and current applicant for the CAC, started the discussion by introducing himself and talking about the misconceptions many people have about the Bridgehampton School.
He sat in the front of the room along side fellow candidates Laurie Gordon, Doug DeGroot, Lillian Tyree-Johnson, and Joe Conti. (White, DeGroot and Tyree-Johnson were elected to the board on Tuesday night. See related story on page 1.) The conversation quickly became a debate on whether the high school should close. There were several emotional pleas from school families to stop debating this issue because it was unnecessarily pressuring and hurting the children.
School board member Nicky Hemby, who has four children at Bridgehampton, was close to tears when she said; "this gets emotional because you are striking at our children. You are negating what my children have achieved."
Joe Conti insisted, "We want to put more resources into the lower grades. We can argue back and forth about what the numbers say all day."
CAC member Jenice Delano, who has an MBA in finance, replied, "You say we could argue numbers, but I believe there is actually nothing to argue about."
Towards the end of the discussion school parent Katherine DeGroot asked Gordon and Conti, "If elected to the school board would you work on some sort of compromise; for example we could have some sort of exchange program with kids in Sag Harbor who might want to come here and vice versa."
Conti suggested Bridgehampton's school building just didn't have the space, but Gordon said, "I would actually consider that because once you're on the board you need to consider all options. But I do think spending $75,000 per student is still a lot of money to spend. No other district spends that much."
To which Nicky Hemby replied, "You don't have the right numbers!"
At approximately 9 p.m. Cammann said it was time to end the discussion and go home, and although some left swiftly, others lingered to continue the contentious conversation.
In photo above, school board candidate Joe Conti (right) makes a point while fellow candidates Laurie Gordon, Lillian Tyree-Johnson and Ron White look on.

I had one of these new in 2007. In Aus, it cost $12,000 new. It was stolen and burned after 6 months and since it wasn't insured, and they had only arrived in Aus, I went for a second hand Burgman 650 rather than cough up another 12k.
I think the instruments on the Honda look better, more bike like, and it feels more nimble on the road. It also has normal bike mirrors that don't get in the way of car mirrors and is more svelte looking + it's a Honda. I never wanted to own a Suzuki.
The Burgman is a fat beast and those fixed body mirrors are too low and can be a pain in traffic always having to pull them in to go through tighter gaps but I've got used to it now. I can't comment on the SWing's durability but my Burgman is on 33k now and has never had a problem. I ride it every day. The Burgman feels more solid on the open road at speed ... but I'm only adding 125 pounds to the mix. I don't remember the SWing, but the Burgman's standard hand grips are too narrow and need beefing up (heated grips do the trick) or you'll get sore hands over long distances. I have a Givi screen with the extra bits that go out over the hands. It's great in the cold and rain.
The Burgman has a larger capacity underseat and that manual gear selection thing - which I tried once. I don't see the point of it. It also has another button that immediately increases the revs 1000 over whatever you're at. I have used that a couple of times when cars have wanted to race and I just like to show them briefly that they have no chance before I let them go
I read quite a few tests comparing maxi scooters and testers often said that the T-MAX was the most bike-like of the lot. That it had the closest to motorcycle handling in their opinions. I've never ridden one. The seat height is too high. Don't think i'm missing out on anything.
I would like to try that new Honda 700 Integra though.

Veterans skeptical of lottery game meant to help them
Local VFW Post 76: There are better ways to help veterans in need
SAN ANTONIO - The Texas Lottery Commission released their latest version of Veteran Cash this week. The scratch-off game send proceeds to the fund for Veterans' Assistance, administered by the Texas Veterans' Commission.
Various version of the game have been issued over the past three years. The Texas Lottery claims to have raised approximately $20 million during that time.
The VFW Post 76 is the oldest in Texas, and has seen their fair share of Veterans in need.
"They come out of the woodwork. Homeless veterans that come here for help," said VFW Post 76 member and Vietnam veteran Luis Gomez.
Veterans at the VFW Post 76 are skeptical the fund does much good.
"As far as veterans getting any money, I've seen it once here at this post. Sen. Leticia Van de Putte gave a veteran -- I think he needed some money to pay his rent or something like his mortgage -- they gave him $1,000, and that's the only case I've heard of or seen that anybody got any money (from the lottery funded fund)," said Gomez.
"There's a lot of fraud out there. Personally, I think people just want to take our money," said Angel Vasquez, VFW Post 76 member and Vietnam veteran.
Rather than play the lottery game, the veterans at the VFW Post 76 would like to see people contribute to the individual VFW Post Relief Funds.
"We'll support (the scratch-off game) if its for the veterans, because I've bought several myself -- the last one's that were out -- but we're here, and we know what goes on," Gomez.
You can contribute to the VFW Post 76 Relief Fund by visiting the post, or by going to their website http://www.vfwpost76.org

So this external disk sits where? In your house? Do you move around with your backup where you might loose it?
If you don't move about with the disk, you have physical security of the device - who in the house that also has physical access to the device are you worried about seeing the files?
I bring up these topic because in all honesty its rare that files actually warrant encryption - yeah its cool! Yeah you should secure your files, but the issue is more often than not encryption secures them from the owner of the files more times than securing them from unauthorized access
If you have some sensitive work files - sure by all means put them in an encrypted volume. But do your other files warrant encryption, keep in mind that if something goes wrong, you forget your password, loose the encryption key file, etc.. You have no loss access to these files as well.
You mention they are backups - in the same house I assume, so the originals are encrypted? Kind of pointless to have files encrypted in the back, next to the originals - if the originals are not encrypted.
What encryption do you use for the originals - why not use the same for your backup?
Look around even just the threads on neowin, you get people jumping on the encryption band wagon because well it's cool Next thing you know - how do I access my files, I used EFS and then reinstalled my OS - but didn't bother to read all the details and never backed up my encryption keys. Now I am F_cked!!!
Here is a basic question before use of encryption -- would you rather loose the files, then someone access them?

- Subjects:Reading, Teacher Tips and Strategies
Have Students Determine Their Own Class Book Award Categories
- Grades: 3–5
Once my students understand how the book award categories will work in our classroom, they create their own categories.
Every other month, students suggest new categories. I write down all of the students' ideas, and they vote on the categories they like best. Each student can vote for three categories, and the five categories with the most votes become the final categories in which students will nominate books for that period of time.
I do try to get students to connect the learning we are doing in reading workshop to the categories they choose. For instance, when we studied poetry one year, a category was "Poem with the Best Alliteration." When doing an in-depth character study, a book award category was "Character Who Changes the Most in a Book." When studying the mystery genre, students voted on a "Mystery With the Most Surprising Ending" category.
The more specific the category, the more students really put effort into reading and nominating books that truly fit the bill!

"Starving strengths to feed weaknesses" unfortunately occurs quite frequently in higher education. I think there's a lot of pressure on institutions in areas where there aren't a lot of postsecondary options available to be "everything" for students. Unfortunately, these institutions tend to be smaller and underresourced to begin with. They stretch themselves thin when they attempt to offer a full roster of programs when they might be better off offering a few core ones.
In the field of economics, the term "competitive advantage" means you have the lowest opportunity cost of providing a good or service. Opportunity cost is simply defined as what you give up in order to complete an action.
Competitive advantage should have the same definition in the higher education world. For example, a top engineering school shouldn't begin a new program in ancient Greek biblical interpretation, especially if the program already exists at a nearby institution. The competitive advantage of the engineering department is to produce high-quality engineers.
In my time in academia, I have experienced a necessary shift in administrators' logic regarding programs: we can't be everything to everyone, but we will be the best at what we're able to provide.
This line of thought leads to an obvious financial question: are we willing to let or encourage students to go to another university? It's my personal hope that the answer to this question is a resounding yes. If a university practices the idea of competitive advantage, it will recruit students into programs where it provides a marketable value to the students, and redirect prospective students otherwise.
The decision of a university to pursue the creation and delivery of a degree program is driven by financial concerns. For example, a donor might provide a financial incentive to create or renew a program of study at a university, say, an economics program. Now, the university may not have a competitive advantage in economics, if it has the program at all. This doesn't mean the university should abandon the creation of such a program; however, the university must foster the creation of the program to ensure the competitive advantage does develop. This means developing the program with a clear sense of what nearby institutions — competitors — are doing with their own economics programs to ensure there's differentiation among them, and ensuring graduates of its program go on to success.
The counter argument is that competitive advantage may never materialize. For example, if a large manufacturing company with a need for engineers relocates near a university, an incentive to create an engineering school becomes available. However, if the university has never had an engineering school, it may waste a lot of time and money attracting engineering faculty and students, and abandon the programs in which it already had a competitive advantage in the process. This doesn't mean universities should never create new programs or change existing ones, but the point is that care is needed to avoid starving your strengths to feed your weaknesses.
Competitive advantages develop over time due to quality graduates. If universities foster and remain in the fields in which they have a competitive advantage, they will continue to recruit top students and maintain funding at acceptable levels.

3 Responses to Do What You Do Best: Competitive Advantage as a Differentiator in Higher Education
As institutions begin to focus on their competitive advantage, I believe this creates opportunities for them to consider partnerships with other institutions for shared services or programs. It's an exciting time ahead for higher education as we seek new ways to be more efficient with our resources while protecting the student experience.
Absolutely agree with what Vic said.
In order to achieve copetitive advantage goes far beyond the realms of course content and delivery though. Yes it's a major part but is part of a robust framework from a stable infrastructure in systems and processes with a well defined course being the cherry on the cake.
Partnerships with other institutions can be very effective but I fear some institutions fear they are losing or diluting their University brand. This is probably more relevant to the older more traditional institutions.

I could kick myself. I tried to bet Thor's Echo at the last minute and got shut out. NO WAY this horse should have gone off at 15-1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He had the second best Beyer in the race and had just run second in the Ancient Title to Bordonaro, one of the favorites. Plus, Ancient Title runners have historically run well in the Sprint. This is one I totally let get away. Kudos to Doug O'Neill and Corey Nakatani for a job well done. Nakatani could still get that first-ever BC riding triple.

Sumbe — The Ministry of Education plans to increase throughout 2013 the scholar network in five percent, with the enlistment of 18,000 teachers at national level, on Tuesday here announced the incumbent Minister, Mpinda Simao.
The official told so to Angop, in the fringes of the opening of the fourth technical council of the ministry, adding that the increase is part of the development programme that has as main goal the achievement of education for all and the increase of coverage, taking into account the country's needs.
Although he did not mention the number of students, he said that increasing of teachers means more students.
"We need to achieve the coverage of 100 per cent in primary schools, which represents education for everyone", he said.

Strictly wonderful stars at Paint the Town Red!
Last updated at 20:44, Thursday, 24 May 2012
The atmosphere was electric at Workington's St Joseph's School on Saturday for a performance by Strictly Come Dancing stars Darren Bennett and Lilia Kopylova.
The married couple, who took part in six series of the BBC One show, made a flying visit to Workington to support Paint the Town Red.
Darren said: "It is a great pleasure for Lilia and I to be here.
"It is absolutely fantastic for a town of this size all coming together for one day and for a great cause.
"We are big supporters of Bluebell Children's Hospice in Sheffield and we have been told all about Hospice at Home West Cumbria."
The pair were introduced by compere Howard Nicholson and began with a cha cha cha, followed by a jive and finishing with an American smooth – to the delight of the crowd.
They led the audience in a salsa lesson and answered questions from fans.
Lilia said: "In these events it is about the audience, and if they take part and embrace the energy it is great."
Their warm, friendly personalities shone through and they had the crowd laughing, clapping and cheering throughout, especially when Russian-born Lilia was baffled by the word frock.
Emma O'Neill, 28, of Albert Street, said: "They are really funny and it is a lot more intimate than I have seen them in other places."
Annette Younghusband-Mawson, 38, of Thorncroft Gardens, said: "It is nice that they have come to support the town and to get to see them up close."
Peter Brown, of Rose Lane Cockermouth, said: "It is absolutely brilliant to see them in Workington because we don't see people like that up here often."

A New Girl Gem: Photographic Proof That Jess and Nick Need to Get Together Already
Prepare to squee, New Girl fans.
Zooey Deschanel (Jess) tweeted this photo on Friday, March 23, writing, "Shooting #newgirl in the desert today. @markjakejohnson and me."
We hope this is an image of an actual scene she and Jake (Nick) are filming, but at the very least it proves that Nick and Jess — or even Jake and Zooey — would make the cutest couple ever.

Policy on the Assignment and Changing of Grades
Whereas the assignment of course grades to students is a key responsibility and prerogative of the course instructor, there are nonetheless certain extraordinary circumstances in which parties other than the instructor of record may be empowered to record or change student grades for a course. This policy articulates how grades are to be assigned and changed at the University of Northern Iowa.
Therefore, be it resolved that the Senate has approved this policy on the assignment and changing of grades.

WASHINGTON - Democrats are likely to vote unanimously against John R. Bolton when his nomination to be ambassador to the United Nations comes before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee next week, according to Democratic and Republican lawmakers and aides.
It would mark the first time committee Democrats have unanimously opposed a Bush diplomatic nominee and would put the nomination in peril if any Republicans defected to vote against him. But Republicans say they believe the outspoken conservative will win solid GOP backing in the committee, including from the moderate Sen. Lincoln Chafee of Rhode Island, who has voiced reservations about Bolton's nomination to be U.N. ambassador.

Catholic Bloggers
Yes, I am Really Getting Tired of It
Steve Skojec at his blog takes aim at the endless excuses many Catholic commentators come up with to ignore the obvious:
Is anyone else getting really, really tired of this game?
Pope Francis consistently says things that cause serious concern among Catholics who know what the Church teaches. No sooner have the words left his mouth (and of course, been reported on far and wide) than the spin machine goes into high gear – powered in large part by Catholic bloggers who make a living promoting the status quo within the Church (no conflict of interest there!) — telling us why we should not worry about the obviously controversial thing because of one of the following reasons:
- It's a translation issue
- It's a contextual issue
- When he said "X" it's clear that he probably meant "Y"
- The source is unreliable
- The information is not first-hand
- We must look at the issue through the Argentinian cultural lens
- The media is misrepresenting what he said
- He contradicted himself in another thing that he said during a homily last week
- Fr. Lombardi says it ain't true
Take your pick. There are probably others. I imagine the Catholic apologists in the tank for this nonsense have a sort of flow chart they pass around every time they add a new option. "Did the Pope speak in Italian? –> IF YES, it's not his native language. Lost in Translation. IF NO…"
It's a spin-the-wheel sort of system. Maybe there's a papal 8-ball out there (in white, of course) where you shake it up and it gives you a series of half-believable reasons why whatever he said wasn't really heterodox. Across the spectrum of Catholic publications and social media, it's become a giant excuse-making enterprise. Almost like the Pope Francis edition of whack-a-mole.
You'll have to excuse my sarcasm. I'm starting to find this all incredibly offensive, and insulting to the collective intelligence of Catholics who see what is really going on. Continue reading
Our Vicars of Bray
I have been roaming around Saint Blogs since 2003 and have become familiar with the work of most of the major Catholic bloggers. Since the election of Pope Francis I have noticed a curious phenomenon, especially among Catholic bloggers who make their livelihood by hocking books, speaking before parishes, etc: A swift reversal of long held positions, combined with a sudden desire to denounce "reactionaries" and a new found respect for liberal Catholics. No doubt such conversions are heartfelt and not merely time serving, transparent attempts to stay in lockstep with the powers that be. However, if any such sudden conversions are not heartfelt, I dedicate this poem to them:
"In good King Charles's golden days,
When Loyalty no harm meant;
A Furious High-Church man I was,
And so I gain'd Preferment.
Unto my Flock I daily Preach'd,
Kings are by God appointed,
And Damn'd are those who dare resist,
Or touch the Lord's Anointed.
And this is law, I will maintain
Unto my Dying Day, Sir.
That whatsoever King may reign,
I will be the Vicar of Bray, Sir!
When Royal James possest the crown,
And popery grew in fashion;
The Penal Law I shouted down,
And read the Declaration:
The Church of Rome I found would fit
Full well my Constitution,
And I had been a Jesuit,
But for the Revolution. Continue reading

The top United Nations human rights body condemned Syria on Friday for using deadly force against peaceful protesters and launched an investigation into killings and other alleged crimes.
The 47-member forum, which held an emergency session at U.S. request, endorsed a U.S.-sponsored resolution by 26 votes to 9 with 7 abstentions.
"Member states came together to condemn the brutal tactics used by the Assad regime to silence peaceful dissent," U.S. human rights ambassador Eileen Donahoe said in a statement.

Aesthetic and Cosmetic Dentistry.
Over 90% of Americans agree that a smile is an important social asset, yet less than half of people are satisfied with their smiles. An attractive smile radiates youth, vitality, and success. Cosmetic dentistry can help you express your style and individuality with confidence.
Stained, chipped, and misaligned teeth can detract from your overall appearance. Many people avoid pictures and feel embarrassed to smile in social settings. Dr. Castaneda can replenish your self-esteem with conservative smile enhancements that correct flaws and allow you to put forward your best.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Cosmetic dentistry includes a variety of treatments customized to correct a wide range of flaws. As your cosmetic dentist, Dr. Castaneda will design a treatment plan that considers your overall facial harmony, as well as your time constraints and budget. In just two or three visits, Dr. Castaneda can give any smile curb appeal.
Modern alternatives to traditional braces and other time-consuming dental treatments have made cosmetic dentistry more accessible to the general public. Our San Francisco dental office features the latest aesthetic dentistry solutions, including porcelain veneers and invisible orthodontics. This amazing technology allows you to make a confident decision regarding your cosmetic dental treatments.
Years ago, aesthetic improvements in dentistry often meant multiple appointments and invasive procedures. But thanks to advances in cosmetic dentistry, dental professionals are able to help patients achieve spectacular results in a far less painful and time-consuming fashion. At Aesthetika Dental Center, we're pleased to offer our valued San Francisco patients a variety of cosmetic solutions to their aesthetic needs.
Aesthetic Dentistry
Throughout the years, aesthetic dentistry has evolved to include total facial harmony. A skilled aesthetic dentist considers the surrounding facial muscles, as well as the gums and teeth. Problems, like tooth decay, gum disease, and TMJ disorder can counteract cosmetic dental efforts. Dr. Castaneda takes a multi-disciplinary approach to smile aesthetics, ensuring optimal form and function, as well as beauty.
As we age, our smiles can begin to look weather-beaten and lackluster. Teeth collect stains and lose their natural sparkle. Habits like grinding (bruxism) can cause teeth to wear down and break. Cosmetic dentistry can revitalize your appearance and drastically improve your self-confidence.
Don't let stains, cracks, or chips steal your self-confidence. Aesthetic dentistry, or cosmetic dentistry, can correct imperfections, improve oral health, and give you the star-quality smile you deserve. Dr. Castaneda will help you choose the right combination of treatments for a smile makeover that reflects your uniqueness and individuality.
Improving Your Smile
Whether you're looking to fix a single crooked tooth or desire more extensive cosmetic work, the dedicated team at Aesthetika Dental Center is at your service to provide gentle and cost-effective cosmetic dental treatments. When you visit our practice, you'll benefit from our individualized, attentive approach to cosmetic dentistry. And because we want you to be comfortable with your course of treatment, Dr. Castaneda will take the time to address your concerns before we get started.

A WEEK after remaining unidentified, the dead body of a white woman has finally been recognized as that of Ms Susan Wells, a 41-year-old Canadian volunteer with passion to work with and help Tanzanian Street children. She was found dead last week and is believed to have been murdered.
Joseph Kimaro, an alleged dissident youth that Ms Wells is reported to have been trying to assist, is currently being held by Police here as the principal suspect in the alleged murder.
Regional Police Commander Liberatus Sabas said here that the youth has not yet been questioned in connection with last week's killing of the Canadian woman. Police believe that there is a second suspect in the shocking crime.
But are the street children in Arusha capable of committing serious crimes such as murder? Mr Steven Ndossi, an officer at MS-Training Centre for Developmental Cooperation (TCDC), who has been working with underprivileged and homeless children for years, believes there must be some outside influence.
"Older people in Arusha usually use street children to commit crimes that they won't dare to try. They have been sending the unwitting youths to steal or even attack people on their behalf," said Mr Ndossi.
The child rights activist was of the view that, the police must extract the truth from the suspect in order to discover the real culprits behind the murder. Mr Innocent Kissanga, who works with Caucus for Children Rights (CCR) here, admits that street children can, indeed, turn hostile.
"Peer influence, use of alcohol and drugs and the fact that they always have a drive for 'revenge' against the community which neglects them can lead them to commit mayhem," he said. Mr Kissanga also pointed out that another driving force is the misguided belief that foreigners are always laden with money and that has been prompting some locals to attack and rob them.
Ms Wells, who had just jetted into Arusha laden with gifts and other educational materials for local children here, was later discovered dead at a remote farm in Terrat Division, South of Arusha City. Police officers here say that there was a deep wound on the victim's head.
They are investigating the source of the murder. The suspect, Kimaro, was arrested near Kilimanjaro International Airport on Monday and it is still not yet clear where he was heading to though some reports speculate that he could have been on the way to Mirerani (via the KIA junction) where most suspects love to hide.
It was Ms Wells' sixth trip to Arusha. The deceased is reported to have previously worked in the city as both volunteer and social worker, since 2008. This means she must have been conversant with the area and would not fall prey to strangers.

Friends, family say goodbye to Amy Winehouse
Several mourners, including Ronson - who co-produced Winehouse's breakthrough album "Back to Black" - looked emotional as they left the red brick structure, which has seen the cremations of thousands of ordinary Londoners and many celebrities, including psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, comedian Peter Sellers and drummer Keith Moon of The Who.
The family was then due to hold two days of shiva, a Jewish traditional period of mourning.
The soul diva, who had battled alcohol and drug addiction, was found dead Saturday at her London home. She was 27.
An autopsy held Monday failed to determine what caused her death. Police are awaiting the results of toxicology tests, which will take two to four weeks.
On Monday the singer's father, mother and brother visited the house where she died, thanking mourners who had left flowers and cards.
Mitch Winehouse said "Amy was about one thing and that was love."
"Her whole life was devoted to her family and her friends and to you guys as well," he told fans.
Winehouse released only two albums in her short career - winning five Grammy awards for "Back to Black" - and often made headlines because of drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, destructive relationships and abortive performances.
Since her death, her records have re-entered album charts around the world, and tributes have poured in from fans and fellow musicians.
George Michael called her "the most soulful vocalist this country has ever seen," and soul singer Adele said she "paved the way for artists like me and made people excited about British music again."

William Dobell
|Sir William Dobell
William Dobell, 1942, photograph by Max Dupain
24 September 1899
Cooks Hill, Newcastle, Australia
|13 May 1970
(aged 70)
Wangi Wangi, Australia
|Known for
Sir William Dobell, OBE (24 September 1899 – 13 May 1970) was an Australian artist.
William Dobell was born in Cooks Hill, a working-class neighbourhood of Newcastle, New South Wales in Australia. His father was a builder and there were six children.
Dobell's artistic talents were evident early. In 1916, he was apprenticed to Newcastle architect, Wallace L. Porter and in 1924 he moved to Sydney as a draftsman. In 1925, he enrolled in evening art classes at the Sydney Art School (which later became the Julian Ashton School of Art), with Henry Gibbons as his teacher. He was influenced by George Washington Lambert. He was also gay and consequently never married, while several of his works carried strong homoerotic overtones.[1]
In 1929, Dobell was awarded the Society of Artists' Travelling Scholarship[2] and travelled to England to the Slade School of Fine Art where he studied under Philip Wilson Steer and Henry Tonks. In 1930, he won first prize for figure painting at Slade and also travelled to Poland. In 1931 he moved on to Belgium and Paris, and after 10 years in Europe returned to Australia – taking with him a new Expressionist style of painting as opposed to his earlier naturalistic approach.
In 1939, he began as a part-time teacher at East Sydney Technical College. After the outbreak of war, he was drafted into the Civil Construction Corps of the Allied Works Council in 1941 as a camouflage painter; he later became an unofficial war artist.
In 1943, Dobell's portrait of Joshua Smith, titled "Portrait of an artist", was awarded the Archibald Prize. This was contested in 1944 by two unsuccessful entrants, Mary Edwards and Joseph Wolinski, who brought a lawsuit against Dobell and the Gallery's Board of Trustees in the Supreme Court of New South Wales on the grounds that the painting was a caricature. The claim was dismissed and the award was upheld, but the ordeal left Dobell emotionally disturbed and he retreated in 1945 to his sister's home at Wangi Wangi on Lake Macquarie, where he began to paint landscapes.
In 1944, he had his first solo exhibition including public collection loans at the inauguration of the David Jones Art Gallery, Sydney.
In 1949, he visited New Guinea as a guest of Sir Edward Hallstrom with writers Frank Clune and Colin Simpson. The trip inspired a new series of tiny, brilliantly coloured landscapes. In 1950, he revisited New Guinea; on his return to Australia he continued to paint scenes of New Guinea, as well as portraits.
Between 1960 and 1963 TIME magazine commissioned Dobell to paint four portraits for covers, one per year, of: Robert Menzies, Prime Minister of Australia; South Vietnam's President Ngô Đình Diệm; Frederick G. Donner, the Chairman of General Motors; and Tunku Abdul Rahman, Prime Minister of Malaysia.
In 1964, Dobell exhibited in a major retrospective at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and the first monograph of his work was written by James Gleeson.
He died in 1970 in Wangi Wangi. The sole beneficiary of his estate was the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation, which was founded on 19 January 1971.
A film of Dobell's life, titled Yours sincerely, Bill Dobell was made in 1981 by Brian Adams and Cathy Shirley for the Australian Broadcasting Commission and the William Dobell Art Foundation. Brian Adams' book Portrait of an Artist – A biography of William Dobell was first published in 1983 by Hutchinson Publishing Group and revised in paperback in 1992 for Random House Australia.
A book on the life and art of William Dobell, William Dobell: An Artist's Life by Elizabeth Donaldson, was compiled in 2010 with the support of the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation and Dobell House, in Wangi Wangi. It is published by Exisle Publishing.
Dobell's style is unique in being able to adapt to suit the character of his subject. This was best described by James Gleeson; "One of the astonishing things about Dobell's portraiture is his ability to adjust his style to the nature of the personality he is portraying ... If the character of his sitter is broad and generous, he paints broadly and generously. If the character is contained and inward looking, he uses brushstrokes that convey this fact. In his later portraits one has only to look at a few square inches of a painted sleeve to know what sort of person is wearing it."
Among private and other public holdings, examples of Dobell's work are exhibited in the Newcastle Region Art Gallery, the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the Queensland Art Gallery in Brisbane and the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra.
Awards and honours[edit]
In 1943, Dobell won the Archibald Prize for a portrait of the artist Joshua Smith. This was unsuccessfully challenged in court as being caricature rather than portraiture.
In 1948, Dobell entered "Margaret Olley" in the Archibald and won; he also won the Wynne prize for "Storm approaching Wangi".
In 1959, Dobell again won the Archibald for "Dr E. G. MacMahon".
He was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1965 and was knighted in 1966.
The federal electoral Division of Dobell in New South Wales is named after him.

Old North Church
- Type: Sightseeing
- Time to Spend: 1 to 2 hours
|Overall Rating:
|About these ratings
Most people who know anything about American history have heard of Paul Revere's famous midnight ride, when he rode through town to warn people about the British troops' arrival. Before heading off to Lexington, Revere gave orders at Old North Church. The church's sexton, Robert Newman, then climbed the steeple and held two lanterns as a signal (from Revere) that the British Regulars were indeed coming, and that they were coming by sea. As Henry Wadsworth Longfellow wrote, "One if by land, and two if by sea."
The church itself, which is officially named the Christ Church, is filled with beautiful relics from the past, including the United States' oldest running clock in a public building and chandeliers brought in from England in the early 1700s. The pews have a long history themselves; pew number 54 was reserved for the Revere family.
You can stop by the church on the North End of the Freedom Trail at any time of year. The Old North Church's historic site and campus visiting hours vary by season: From January to February, visitors are welcome from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; from March to May and November to December, visiting hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and from June to October, visiting hours are from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. If you're interested in attending church services, drop in on Sundays at 9 or 11 a.m. Though the church is free to visit, a $3 donation per person is encouraged. There are also free self-guided church tours available as well as 30-minute behind-the-scenes tours; guided tours cost $6 for adults and $3 for kids ages 12 and younger.
For additional information, check out the Old North Church's official website.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) The Anchorage Fur Rendezvous plans a new event at this winter's festival in Anchorage team snowball fighting.
It's an organized sport in Japan called Yukigassen, and Rondy board president Gary Hufford told the Anchorage Daily News Wednesday the February event will be the first sanctioned Yukigassen tourney in the United States.
"We're always looking for new events," he said.
Here's how it works:
Two teams of seven players, wearing helmets and face guards, meet on a rectangular field that has defensive snow shelters and flags for each side.
No shields allowed. No cleats or metal spikes.
A team can win by capturing the opponents' flag or hitting all the opponents with snowballs.
Each team will gets 270 machine-made snowballs.
The teams play for three three-minute periods, with referees officiating.
After the Rondy announcement at their headquarters, Mayor Dan Sullivan, Assemblyman and former Rondy board chairman Ernie Hall and others demonstrated the art of throwing snowballs.
The 10-day Rondy begins Feb. 25. Events include sled dog racing, ice sculptures and now, team snowball fighting on the Delaney Park Strip.

Pirates who hijacked a Dutch ship and its crew near Bargal district have released the ship after the company that owns the ship paid US$ 1, 250,000 ransom.
Eyl district commissioner Said Aw Yusuf told Radio Garowe that pirates had received the ransom payment in the ocean not far from Ely beach.
"After releasing the ship and its crew the pirates left for Dhanaane and Ilig coastal areas near Eyl. Another German owned is still in the hands of pirates along Eyl coast, " said Eyl district commissioner.
The Puntland Minister of State of Security Jama Hersi Farah deplored the decision to pay pirates ransom to secure the release of the ship. Puntland administration will not give ransom to pirates, he said.
The German owned ship was hijacked one month ago. The payment of ransom is believed to encourage pirates to be more daring in their piracy business that affect security along Somalia's long coast despite assurances from the international community that pirates will be dealt with harshly.

London's burger revolution
Think burgers, and you think fast food. A succulent chunk of beef sandwiched between warm buns, topped with melting cheese, onions and tomato ketchup. It's quick, cheap and fulfilling—everything a burger is traditionally known to be.
Now imagine associating a burger with a posh, sit-down meal. Hard to grasp? Not for Londoners, who are increasingly warming up to the idea of gourmet burgers consumed not as a quick bite or an in-between snack but as a complete meal.
You can't blame them though, for a number of burger restaurants and chains have cropped up in London, each doing better than its competitor. The two leading burger restaurants in London—and we're not talking fast food—are Byron (www.byronhamburgers.com) and Gourmet Burger Kitchen (www.gbk.co.uk), with branches spread across the city, going packed on weekdays and weekends alike. Byron is about to open its 26th restaurant in London, and has an estimated turnover of £8m (Rs69.9 crore), while Gourmet Burger Kitchen—fondly known as GBK—is almost as ubiquitous as a McDonald's here.
What sets these chains apart from a regular burger joint is primarily the superior quality of their products, the choice of interesting sides on offer and of course, a fine-dining kind of experience. Believe it or not, burgers have become high-end too, and London's lapping up the trend along with the mayo and mustard!
While these posh burgers come at a price (starting from £7, or Rs610, and going up to even £13 or Rs1,135), they are well worth the indulgence. Apart from the scrumptious burger itself, there are a lot more side-options than just fries. Golden-fried onion rings, freshly baked skin-on-chips, grilled haloumi…you get the drift. And super-sized milkshakes to boot (the Oreo milkshake at Byron particularly comes to mind).
Honest Burgers (www.honestburgers.co.uk) is another burger speciality restaurant in London. Inspired by great British produce, it started as a pop-up restaurant in Brixton and has now opened a second outlet in the heart of Soho. Going by its success, it looks to be expanding into a chain in the near future.
Then there's Hache (www.hacheburgers.com), ahigh-end, classy burger joint that has some exquisite burgers on its menu that including Thai fish, jerk chicken, duck and steak, to name a few. Popular pub chain All Bar One (www.allbarone.co.uk) has joined the burger revolution with its special Crab and lobster burger, while it is believed that Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg plans on bringing his famed Wahlburgers chain this side of the Atlantic.
But it's not just burgers going classy that's exciting Londoners, it's the unique flavours their taste-buds are getting to experience that's adding to the burger craze. Game On, a popular stall in London's Camden Food Market, has some of the rarest meats on offer—from kangaroo to crocodile to ostrich to venison to wild boar—cooked to perfection in a delicious burger.
Meat apart, it's the toppings that matter too. Gone are the days of just onion and ketchup in your burger. Gourmet burgers now come with gherkins, an assortment of expensive cheeses to choose from, rich creamy mayonnaise, three or four different varieties of mustard, and an army of other signature in-house sauces. There are a number of different buns to choose from as well, making eating a burger an experience in itself.
Though burgers are widely considered as the ultimate comfort food, they do not however fall under the radar of healthy food. But fear not, for those looking to eat healthy while getting their burger fix, most gourmet burgers also come in low-calorie options too, sans the mayonnaise and cheese.

Replying to: Re: Metro PCS by trey1475
trey1475 said:I think they've improved service to the point where it's a viable option for many people. Buying up new licenses and starting service in new metro areas is the next logical step for the company.
Even though they might not have the best phone selection, there price is very tempting. I live in Atlanta and there coverage in Atlanta is great. BUt dont travel too far outside the atlanta and metro area. Metro Pcs is just living up to it's name "Metro". Its only going to work in metro areas. Now metro PCS is smart. They're growing every year. If they keep going at this rate they are going to have coverage in every major city. Customer wise, Metro Pcs has the most customers in the Atlanta area. If they keep growing it may be applicable for everywhere eles.

Rookie Reviews: Week 12
Sam Bradford—QB—St. Louis Rams
What else can be said about Sam Bradford? He's good. Like really, really good. It's hard to remember a rookie quarterback being this impressive in quite some time. Again this past weekend versus Denver, Bradford was in top form. He completed 22 of 37 passes for 308 yards with 3 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. That's good for a quarterback rating of 113.3, or in other words: awesome. His 2,466 yards on the season place the 1st round pick from Oklahoma 6th in the NFC in that category, and his 17 touchdown passes place him 5th. Can you say franchise QB?
Gerald McCoy—DT—Tampa Bay Buccaneers
There was a lot of publicity about Gerald McCoy before the NFL Draft, specifically surrounding those who thought he could be taken ahead of Ndamukong Suh. While it is clear that the Lions made the correct choice in drafting Suh, who has been flat-out dominant, McCoy has struggled to live up to his billing. However, after recording the first sack of his career 2 weeks ago, the 1st round pick from Oklahoma again had a nice performance this past weekend versus Baltimore. McCoy recorded 3 tackles which included 2 quarterback sacks. It looks like McCoy might have reached the turning point in his rookie season, and should continue to get better.
Jason Pierre-Paul—DE—New York Giants
Similar to Gerald McCoy above, Pierre-Paul has been slightly disappointing thus far in his rookie season. Prior to this last game, the 1st round pick from South Florida had only recorded 11 tackles and 0 sacks, certainly not numbers worthy of the 15th overall selection. But the talent and athleticism that startled everybody at the combine was finally on display Sunday versus Jacksonville. Pierre-Paul had by far his best game of the season recording 8 tackles, 2 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles. It's the type of performance that has Giants fans hoping that Pierre-Paul can be an impact player for the rest of the season.
Carlso Dunlap—DE—Cincinnati Bengals
The next installment of this week's underwhelming rookie defensive end that finally had a good game is Carlos Dunlap. The 2nd round pick from Florida had accumulated only 7 tackles and 1 sack prior to this past weekend versus the New York Jets. On Sunday, however, Dunlap had 3 tackles which included 2 sacks. It's nice to see Dunlap, and the other high-profile rookie defensive ends finally making an impact for their respective teams.
Jacoby Ford—WR—Oakland Raiders
Ford is really starting to assert himself as a force to be reckoned with, not only on special teams, but in the passing game as well. Two weeks after having a similarly exceptional game, the 4th round pick from Clemson did it again on Sunday versus Miami. Ford not only returned the opening kickoff of the game 101 yards for a touchdown, but also caught 4 passes for 108 yards, including a 44 yard touchdown reception (the first touchdown catch of his career). It will be hard for Oakland fans to get over the botched selection of Darrius Heyward-Bey, but Ford is doing his best to help with the process.
Devin McCourty—CB—New England Patriots
Although it seems like ages, and a lot of food, ago, Devin McCourty had another terrific game Thanksgiving Day versus Detroit. With 7 tackles and 2 more interceptions (which included 73 return yards), the 1st round pick from Rutgers just might be playing himself into rookie of the year consideration. His 61 tackles place him 9th among all cornerbacks in the NFL, and his 5 interceptions are tied with Earl Thomas of Seattle for 4th in the NFL. If not rookie of the year, McCourty will certainly get Pro Bowl consideration, an amazing accomplishment for a rookie cornerback.
Shout-Outs To: Jerome Murphy, DB, St. Louis Rams (1st career forced fumble), Rolando McClain, LB, Oakland Raiders (1st career interception), Kendrick Lewis, S, Kansas City Chiefs (1st career interception), Eric Decker, WR, Denver Broncos (1st 2 career catches), Kyle Love, DT, New England Patriots (1st 2 career tackles), Marlon Moore, WR, Miami Dolphins (1st career touchdown catch), Alex Carrington, DE, Buffalo Bills (1st career sack)

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
