A Film by Mel Stuart.
|THE HOBART SHAKESPEAREANS is a delightful profile of one phenomenal teacher and his eager students who together touchingly demonstrate the power of education. What happens in Rafe Esquith s classroom defies the odds. With genuine passion and ironclad conviction, Esquith turns the Asian-American and Latino children of a violence-stricken central Los Angeles neighborhood on to the wonders of Shakespeare, Mark Twain, and mathematics. The Hobart Boulevard Elementary fifth-graders respond heartily, rattling off the names of Shakespeare s thirty-seven plays or doing rapid-fire arithmetic in their heads. The children are refreshingly engaged as Esquith takes them to Washington, D.C. to visit national monuments, leads them on tours of college campuses, and implores them to work hard and believe in their own self-worth. At the end of the semester they pull together--with a little help from famous actors Ian McKellen and Michael York--their final triumph: a student production of Hamlet. Through tears and laughter, this endearing troupe casts aside the conventional wisdom about the failures of education in the United States. Academy Award-nominated director Mel Stuart deftly probes the secrets of Esquith s winning strategy in a story as inspiring and rewarding as it is exceptional. DVD Features: Filmmaker Interview; Filmmaker Biography; Interactive Menus; Scene Selection Format: DVD MOVIE
Editor's NoteRafe Esquith is a teacher who really did make a difference. Teaching in a decrepit Los Angeles neighborhood, Esquith took it upon himself to impart the works of Shakespeare to the kids who patrol the streets by night and reluctantly turn up to school by day. As this film shows, the results were remarkable, with the majority of the kids taking to the Bard like a duck to water, largely thanks to Esquith's innovative teaching methods.

The Bachelor
Report: Ben Flajnik Spotted Flirting With Multiple Women, Still "Acting Like a Bachelor"
You'd think dating 25 women would fill up your flirtation quota for at least a few months — especially if you're rumored to be engaged to one of them. Guess not.
Season 16 Bachelor Ben Flajnik — or perhaps his alter ego Storm Horse — was said to be partying like a rock star at a bash for Oxygen's Jersey Couture in NYC on Feb. 2. A partygoer told Life & Style that Ben and his entourage of buddies were overheard bragging about their exploits from the night before, when Ben stayed out till 4 a.m.
The next night, an onlooker told L&S Ben and his pals were doing tequila shots in the West Village before going to the Jane hotel, where Ben was supposedly flirting with multiple women. "He definitely still seems to be acting like a bachelor," the eyewitness told Life & Style.
Is this like Ben's extended bachelor party before he takes the plunge with his Chosen One? And even if he was overly chatty, it's not like flirting is really cheating...
OK, let's just blame it on Storm Horse to be safe.

As expected, Michigan got a commitment from 4* LB out of Ohio, Ben Gedeon. He was likely a silent commit for a while, as Michigan was telling other LB's that they were full.
Michigan will still leave a scholarship available for potential 5* LB EJ Levenberry, who has Michigan and FSU as his leaders.

Historically, the increased use of overtime in preference to hiring additional workers has been one response to tightness in the labor force. Especially for exempt workers, the use of overtime may save money relative to hiring additional workers, because many fringe benefits, such as health insurance, unemployment insurance, and workers ' compensation, are fixed and the firm will not experience any increase in costs for these benefits when current employees work additional hours. As importantly, workers who can work overtime are in fact already on the payroll, and so an employer does not incur the costs of recruiting additional workers.
A common stereotype of IT workers portrayed in the popular press is that of workers who work long days and as much as 80 hours per week. Furthermore, this stereotype is typically described as being caused by the culture of the IT workplace, the push to bring products to market before other firms, and the overall shortage of workers available to IT firms. However, the quantitative data available to the committee do not support this stereotype across the board.
In particular, data from the Current Population Survey (CPS) on selected Category 1 occupations indicate that, during 1997 and 1998, average weekly hours in these occupations were just under 40 hours per week. 1 By comparison, weekly hours across all workers averaged 34.6 during 1997 and 1998. Full-time managers, executives, and professional specialty workers, though, worked an average of 44.7 hours per week during 1999.
Figure 6.1 and Figure 6.2 illustrate a distribution of CPS-tabulated (Category 1) IT workers in numbers of hours worked per week. About 80 percent of computer systems analysts, computer scientists, and computer programmers worked between 36 and 50 hours per week in 1999 according to the CPS. A November 1999 survey by Software Development magazine, which yielded 3,928 responses to a question about hours worked per week, yielded similar results: among this self-selected group, 61 percent reported clocking 41 to 50 hours per week.2
Moreover, the percentage of employees who worked 40 or more hours per week was higher for each of lawyers and judges, health diagnostic occupations, and engineers than for IT jobs as tabulated by CPS. As shown in Figure 6.3, only 25 percent of computer programmers and 40 percent of computer systems analysts and scientists worked more than

Michigan State Supreme Court Bans Dispensaries
Businesses can't sell pot, the Michigan Supreme Court said in a pivotal ruling that should close all medical marijuana dispensaries in the state.
In a 4-1 ruling released Friday, the high court upheld a 2011 state Court of Appeals ruling that said patient-to-patient sales of marijuana are illegal under the state's medical marijuana law.
Enforcement since the appeals' court decision has depended on the attitudes of local police and sheriff's agencies.
Marijuana dispensaries can be considered a "public nuisance," according to the Supreme Court's opinion.
The 4-1 decision is the most significant court ruling since voters approved medical marijuana in 2008. It means the state's 126,000 approved users must grow their own pot or have a state-licensed caregiver grow it for them.
- Read the entire article at The Times Herald.
Just a poorly written law
Courts are only supposed to interpret the law. If the law states that businesses are illegal under the law then there isn't much room for the judges to move.
The law needs to be amended to include provisions for med canna businesses.
dispensaries or hoppers on all the corners
Really the state says u can have it if ur sick but a store cannot sell it,so then we go back to the corners to get what not and crime continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All Boys and Velez Sarsfield could not be separated in their top-of-the-table clash as they played out a goalless draw.
A point was enough to keep Velez at the summit of the Clausura standings, ahead of their opponents and Estudiantes, who joined the two sides on eight points with a 1-0 win at San Martin San Juan. An own goal from Diego Sosa after 17 minutes was all that separated the teams.
Independiente lost again, going down 3-1 at home to Argentinos Juniors. Goals from Nicolas Batista, Fabian Bordagaray and Pablo Barzola made the points safe for the visitors before Roberto Battion pulled one back.
That was the first goal of the Clausura for Independiente, who are rock bottom with no points from four games.

Now wait a minute. July 2nd isn't a regular NBLUG meeting date.
And July's NBLUG talk was supposed to be Rick Lehrbaum & Murry Shohat

Did this JUST get arranged, and NBLUG's website hasn't been updated???
Is July 9th's talk still happening, along with July 2nd's?

Sit your kid down in front of the TV parenting at its finest! #sarcasm
Boy goes missing in the woods and is kept warm thanks to four puppies
Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Kyle Camp, a 10-year-old boy with Down Syndrome, went missing on Tuesday afternoon from his Alabama home. After 18 hours of searching Kyle was found in the forest with four puppies piled on top of him keeping him warm.
Kyle was last seen watching television around four in the afternoon when he went missing. His family searched for him for a few hours before calling police for help. Soon over 150 people in the community were searching for the lost boy. Police believe Kyle may have followed the family dogs, leading him into the woods about a half mile away from him home.
Finally at 8:30 am on Wednesday morning family friend Jamie Swinney found Kyle with the help of the mother dog. Kyle was found shoe-less and shivering in a creek. He was surrounded by the four puppies. "Those puppies kept him company, they kept him warm and comfortable," Swinney said. "We don't know what would have happened to him had the puppies not been with him. And credit goes to the mother dog for leading me to the boy." Swinney knew that if anyone could find the Kyle, it was the mother dog who was looking for her four puppies.
Kyle was taken to the hospital to be treated for minor scrapes and bruises and returned home on Thursday.

Why so many thumbs down on both of these comments? The child was gone missing for 18 hours! The family must've not been aware of his exact whereabouts for at least a couple of hours… meaning, sat him in front of the TV and were doing their own thing. Hello!

I feel sorry for the poor animals, these people can't even take care of a kid!! Wonder how much they are taking care of a mama dogs and puppies. Please someone, take the kid and the animals AWAY, muey pronto!!!
October 23, 2012 11:10 amPosted 2 years ago
Please spay that momma dog! And neuter/spay the pups before find them really good homes. Don't just give them away! They end up in horrible situations. Get a contract and visit the home.
It is great that the pups kept this sweet child warm but truly puppies should not be out and about like that. So many dogs just running loose in the south. The kill rate in Alabama shelters is atrocious. And so many dogs don't have Heartworm preventative. It's like a third world country with street dogs for goodness sake.
If you value that this dog saved this boy, then do what is best! Spay and neuter and give proper vet care and quality food (supermarket food is junk IMHO).

What herbs can I take to balance my hormones and help with PMS while breastfeeding? Ever since my period came back after my last baby was born 15 mo. ago my hormones have been way out of whack and PMS is HORRIBLE! I am sure it doesn't help that I am OLD (42) *LOL* And FWIW, I do not take birth control and won't.
Me , DH married 24 yrs.,DD #1 (89), DD #2 (91), DD #3 (05), and DD #4 (6/11/11)
This thread is a WEALTH of knowledge... and cured my full-on PMDD.
Heather - Wife , Mommy & Health & Wellness Educator, Speaker & Consultant
Let me guide you to find the food and lifestyle choices that fit your family...
You will need to cross-check these to make sure they're safe for breastfeeding, but here is a list of herbs that are known to be VERY helpful for PMS:
- Black cohosh
- Wild yam
- Lemon balm
- Burdock
- Chasteberry
- Chromium
- Don quai
- Maca
This article has more on herbal relief for PMS:
Herbal treatments for PMS — feeling good the whole month through
I had a really nasty reaction with Maca only to find out that it's not uncommon just not the norm. In fact, I found a woman that YouTubed about her journey. Apparently it toyed with the testosterone levels. For me, it not only made things WORSE, but I got wicked acne at my jaw line (painful) around that time.
I don't have any input on the rest, but I always feel the need to share my Maca experience just because you don't generally hear about them. It may be fine for you, but if things aren't going well--keep that tucked away for use as needed. Of course, stopping the Maca ended the problem and it wasn't like it was long before it appeared to be out of my system--so that's a plus.
It's not an herb but I'm finding a reduction of my symptoms by taking high dose vitamin B every day.
In my herbal studies and personal experience I have been finding that instead of going for strong "drug-like" herbs to "fix" your hormones, it is much more effective to work on you gastrointestinal tract and liver first, which really help to nourish your endocrine system. Using gentle food-like herbs can really help you nourish all of these areas at once.
A beautifully nutritive tea blend that is essentially food would be
-dandelion root - 1 part- a great liver ally and helpful for your kidneys as well.
-burdock root - 1 part- wonderful for the liver, skin, hair, you name it. Full of vital nutrients and moistening.
-oatstraw and milky oat tops -2 parts- mildly sweet with nervous system and adrenal nourishing capabilities.
-licorice root - 1/2 part- gently hormone regulating and sweet tasting.
This tea blend should be taken over time and doesn't have to be every day, but a couple cups of the blend a day would be lovely. A cup or two of the blend covered with boiling water in a quart jar and left to sit over night would be divine! Honey to taste can also be added. All of these herbs can be ordered in bulk from www.mountainroseherbs.com. All herbs would be great and gentle on baby too!
Take care and good luck!

Photographers utility belt concept helps you capture the moment
While cameras like the Panasonic Lumix GH-1 and newly announced Olympus E-P1 Pen cameras sport still, voice and video in one package, for the rest of us still lugging around three or four bits of kit, one company has come up with a new baggage system.
Called the multimedia wired up collection, the bag, or rather system of bags is designed to help you capture that great multimedia moment at any "given moment", by giving you access to all your kit.
Created by Pulitzer Prize winning photo-journalist Deanne Fitzmaurice, it seems pretty intense, and more akin to webbing you would find on a soldier rather than a photographer, but to those who need to be ready at the click of a shutter, it might just be for you when it comes out later this year.

Carlisle 'near top of list' for school funds says chancellor
Published at 10:59, Saturday, 08 December 2012
Chancellor George Osborne has said that Carlisle should be "near the top of the list" for extra funding for schools and further-education colleges.
He promised £1bn for school buildings and £270m for colleges when he delivered his Autumn Statement to Parliament on Wednesday.
Carlisle MP John Stevenson was quick off the mark, asking the Chancellor if Carlisle would be eligible.
He said: "If schools and colleges in my constituency have plans on the runway that are ready to take off, but just need a little bit of additional financial support, will the Chancellor help them to take the leap?"
Mr Osborne responded: "I am very happy to look personally at the case that my honourable friend makes for his local education facilities. These are of course decisions for other departments but....I am sure Carlisle should be near the top of the list."
Conservative Mr Stevenson believes there are two schemes in Carlisle that might qualify.
Carlisle College wants to build a digital and creative arts centre at Swifts Mews, in Strand Road, costing £3m-6m.
And Trinity School has plans for a new sixth form centre, which would costs £3m-4m.
It also wants to improve sports facilities.
Headteacher Alan Mottershead told the News & Star earlier: "We are coming to the end of a £20m programme to rebuild the school but the two things we haven't spent money on is sport and the sixth form.
"We are very excited by the prospect of money becoming available but we'll have to wait to see the detail."
The extra money could throw a lifeline to the west Cumbrian schools that missed out when the Coalition cancelled the previous government's Building Schools for the Future programme.
This would have seen a new school built to replace Workington's Southfield and Stainburn schools, redevelopment of Maryport's Netherhall School and improvements at the West Cumbria Learning Centre at Distington and Mayfield School in Whitehaven.
The £1bn for schools is due to spent over the next two years. Mr Osborne said it would fund 100 new free schools and academies and help to expand good schools in areas with a severe shortage of school places.
He also said he would support performance-related pay for teachers, a move likely to upset teaching unions.
Although the Government is not pursuing local-pay bargaining, as it had previously suggested, Mr Osborne said there should be greater flexibility for schools to set pay levels.

Software that turns a Raspberry Pi computer into a time-lapse camera has won a contest for teenage programmers.
PySnap was written by 12-year-old Aaron Hill and took first prize in the 13 and under category of the Raspberry Pi summer coding contest.
The software allows Pi owners to connect a USB camera to the device and fine-tune the interval at which it takes pictures.
For his coding prowess Aaron wins a cash prize of $1,000 (£627).
The Raspberry Pi is about the size of a credit card but is a fully working computer created to help young people get started with programming.
The two-month long competition was run by the foundation behind the Raspberry Pi and intended to find the best young programmers working with the bare-bones computer. Entries were sought in two categories: 13 and under and 14-18.

Waris Shah, winner of India's National Award, and India's official Oscar entry, is an all star production featuring the life of Waris Shah, the 18th century poet, philosopher and singer of Punjab, India, who lived between 1720-1798.
During that era, music was prohibited by Moghul Emperor Aurangzeb, and his successors, in the belief that music constituted a distraction that removed man away from God. Anyone found singing was sentenced to death.
As a disciple of Baba Makhdoom, Waris Shah was instructed to fulfill the last wish before his Guru's execution, writing the epic love story of Heer Ranjha. Waris Shah's version of the story is the most popular, and is known today as Heer Waris Shah.
'Music is Fire that Burns No One'
During his travels in undivided India (now Pakistan), Waris Shah was accused of committing the ultimate sin of singing. To his defense, Waris Shah argued that no sin was committed since "music is fire that burns no one" and as a consequence became instrumental in re-popularizing music in undivided India.
One of the unique and interesting features of the movie is the use of beautiful poetic dialogue. Several songs touch on issues of destiny, spirituality, righteousness, standing by one's honor, and following one's heart. The film communicates diverse expressions of love through body gestures, smiles, and kind acts, all without touching. This cultural aspect of Indian life is commonly found in Indian movies.
Gurdas Maan, in his remarkable performance in the leading title role, wrote and sung most of the film's songs. He mesmerizes the viewing audience by virtue of his charisma that impacts many hearts. His melodic voice and poetic exchanges add to the depth of his character. Gurdas Maan received the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Asia Pacific Film Festival for his interpretation of Waris Shah.
The lead actresses Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta perform with feeling and conviction.
Several energetic dance sequences portray people of that historic period rejoicing to rhythmic music, wearing colorful costumes and beautiful jewelry.
Breathtaking cinematography by R A Krishna adopts clever camera work capturing extreme wide angles, long zoom shots, and close-up picturesque images of people and scenery. Krishna went through extreme efforts to represent the exact desired colors of the set and characters.
For this period movie, a specially designed set was constructed in the Roopnagar district of Punjab reflecting the 18th century township and mosque.
Following is an interview with producer and costume designer Manjeet Maan. She holds the highest cinema award in India, and is a two times National Award winner. Manjeet Maan is the wife of the feature's leading actor and singer, Gurdas Maan.
Ester Molayeme: Could you tell us what the movie Waris Shah communicates about the poet and his vision?
Manjeet Maan: "The film conveys a message of love and harmony. It also underlines the importance of music in bringing harmony to society, and its role in taking the faithful closer to God, all this while chronicling the life and times of Waris Shah."
EM: How were the main actors selected?
MM: "Gurdas Maan is a very famous Punjabi singer having performed all over the world. His stage shows are total sell outs. Gurdas has worked in all movies of Sai Productions apart from outside films."
"The lead actresses Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta have worked as a team in the past films of Sai Productions and were naturally considered for their verve and Punjabi looks. Both speak the language well and understand its nuances."
"Juhu Chawla is a former Miss India and worked in Hindi Mainstream cinema for the past 17 years. In her career she has worked with all major actors of Indian cinema. Divya Dutta is also a very famous young actress, she has played second-leads and leads in scores of Indian films."
"Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta have worked in over 100 films each."
"Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta have won Filmfare and Zee Tele Cine awards for various films, while Gurdas Maan has won national award for Des Hoya Pardes and Shaheed e Mohabbat Boota Singh and the Best Actor award at the Berlin Asia Pacific Film Festival for the year 2006."
EM: How does director Manoj Punj's work in this movie compare to his past work?
MM: "Late Manoj Punj is a three times national award winner. He had a penchant for story telling, detail in acting, and a very personal brand of direction."
"Manoj Punj had directed films like Shaheed e Mohabbat Boota Singh (Martyr of Love Boota Singh), Zindagi Khoobsoorat Hai (Life is Beautiful), and Des Hoya Pardes." "In Waris Shah Manoj relied more on the wide angle in the film to give a wider picture to his audience. In his earlier films, the characters were much more dramatic."
"In Waris Shah the principle character is subtle, although the other two characters are very dramatic in their approach. The film had a very complex story to tell in the sense that while writing the story of Heer and Ranjha, Waris Shah himself becomes a part of his own creation. Manoj Punj handled these complexities well. His earlier films were simple linear stories."
EM: How were the costumes selected and made?
MM: "Along with my team of researchers I delved deep into archival material at various museums like the National Museum, Patiala Archive, and Lahore Museum. The team realized that Persian silks were not only famous but available freely during the period and used by commoners."
"A finer quality was used by the royalty, so Persian silks were used to dress the two female actresses, with Zardozi (gold embroidery). The costumes for Waris Shah were mainly cottons dyed with vegetable dyes and dark colors which were in vogue during those days and in consonance with the class of people Waris Shah belonged to."
"The hand sewn shoes were made of calf and camel leather and polished with vegetable oils, as was the fashion during the times. The polish used in those days was actually burnt wax for the shoes used mostly by males, Females wore either soft leather shoes or shoes made of cloth with leather soles. The costume designer ensured the original techniques were used to get the exact results."
"Even the sticks that people carried varied widely in those times according to the person's status. These were specially researched and designed appropriately according to the characters in the film. Ornaments and jewelry were another area of concern, relying upon the archival material of the Mughal era available in India."
"The headbands the Pagris were either round or with a cut in between. Days were spent in the National Museum of Delhi and several other Museums of Punjab with the team of researchers to get the trend right. Vegetable dyes were used to color these in rose, red, and black."
"The costumes put each character into a proper perspective like Waris Shah, who uses silks initially and then changes over to cotton as he moves towards Sufism. The Qazi (The Governor) uses the finest silks, the girls use Persian and murshidabadi silks. Sabo's brother is a trader and uses the best of clothes in the town. The turbans and the sticks that each one carries signify the character's status."
"The costumes convey the status of the character, his/her lifestyle, profession, and are specific to the time and region addressed in the film."
EM: What was the approach adopted for the choreography?
MM: "Formation dancing has been a tradition in Indian folk dance which the choreographers stuck to. The verve and speed of Punjabi dance is effectively conveyed through the dance sequences of the film. In group dances the choreographers relied mostly on formations and rhythm while in individual dance sequences like Sabo attempting to entice Waris Shah, the choreographer relies more on mannerisms and not speed or verve. Facial expressions in this sequence take prime position rather than the physical movement. In yet another sequence, Waris Shah performs a Sufi dance, with rounds or circular movements, as is the tradition even today."
EM: How was the music created and what types of instruments were used?
MM: "Jaidev Kumar is the prodigal son of great Panna Lal Kathak and composed music for scores of films. For this film he relied mainly on Indian traditional music instruments which were used during that period. A careful look at the film would show the different kind of tabla prevalent during that time."
"All instruments used are traditional Indian music instruments, specific to the region dealt with in the film. Some of the instruments used were the tabla, dholak, harmonium, sitar, veena, taanpoora, and ektara."
EM: Considering the budgetary and climatic concerns, what challenged you the most in the making of this movie?
MM: "The creation of the period, around the 1750s, during which Waris Shah created his magnum opus. The set, houses, streets, mosques, gates, walls, arches, single roof houses, courtyards, indoors, matching properties, costumes, ornaments, footwear, weaponry, musical instruments, were the main areas of concern."
"Compared with our earlier films, this film was a mammoth task. First, for the detail that it demanded; second, for the seriousness and sensitivity that was required by the content we were dealing with, and then the control over drama to be achieved. The character of Waris Shah has been deliberately underplayed by Gurdas Maan. Our earlier films focused mainly on social subjects. This was a period film with a difference."
"It is an independent feature. The total budget of the film was two million dollars. It took nearly three months to shoot the film at a stretch. The climate was hot as the summer season had begun. Added to the temperature were problems like maintenance of the set for continuity, as the paint on sets would develop cracks very fast and the touch up had to be very discreet and matching."
EM: What would the awarding of the Oscar mean to you?
MM: "An Oscar award for an Indian film would be a huge incentive to the Indian film industry which churns out nearly a thousand features every year. It would show a great respect and long overdue recognition on the international stage. To us individually, it would be a great honor and recognition of everyone's effort."

Still, it is true that teams generally don't ride out seasons on 14-game win streaks, which is what the Chargers would do if they were to win Super Bowl XLIV.
In the Super Bowl era, only the 1972 Miami Dolphins (17) and 2003 New England Patriots (15) have won that many games to finish a season. Just four other teams have won more than nine in a row, including the Super Bowl.
Nuts 'n' Bolts
• Perhaps no player has come farther since the Chargers and Jets met in the 2004 playoffs than Nate Kaeding. The last kick of Kaeding's rookie year was a 40-yard miss in the Jets' 20-17 overtime victory. Since then, Kaeding has gone on to become the most accurate kicker in NFL history and yesterday was named the Chargers' only All-Pro for 2009. Tight end Antonio Gates and guard Kris Dielman were picked to the second team.
• Defensive tackle Antonio Garay, who has played well on special teams the past two games, spent seven weeks on the Jets' practice squad this season. He has spent part of this week filling in coaches on various Jets players. Said Turner: "When you have a player who has played for a team, it gives us a little something."
• Jerome Boger will be the referee for Sunday's game. Boger's crew worked the Chargers-Eagles game Nov. 15. The Chargers were penalized three times that day, the Eagles nine.
• With a 20 percent chance of rain forecast for Sunday afternoon, the Chargers are reminding fans that umbrellas are not allowed inside Qualcomm Stadium.

There should be another warning label on those tube of toothpaste you know. A warning to women out there who are trying to get too many things done while visiting the bathroom. The warning should read: "While using this toothpaste on your brush and brushing your teeth with said toothbrush, user should not engage in other activities such as brushing hair, applying eye make up or facial cream. This may cause toothbrush to disengage from the oral cavity and shoot a spray of toothpaste into user's eye causing extremely burning sensation."
Hmmm...you ask, do I have first hand knowledge of a reason for this warning? You bet. Right between the eyes.

There is also the 'why'. If that was not softened stone then why do it. Some pointed some not, some stamped some not, some scraped some not.
Why are they there at all?
Zoser, why and how we may never know, or not exactly.
But because we may never know doesn't automatically mean alien intervention.
THAT is my pioint.

Bugliosi makes case against Bush
Mitch E. Perry
WMNF Drive-Time News Tuesday | Listen to this entire show:
Vincent Bugliosiâs new book titled, The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder is growing in popularity. This week it is ninth on the New York Times bestseller list for non-fiction books.
Bugloisi is the former Los Angeles County prosecutor who has won 21 convictions in murder trials, including Charles Manson. His previous book, Reclaiming History, about the JFK assassination, is now being made into a 10-hour HBO miniseries.
WMNF spoke with Bugliosi this morning from his home in Los Angeles. We asked if the success of his book is now allowing him to break through what he had earlier referred to as a media blackout over the explosive nature of his book.

Is anyone able to save a Puppeteer preset and then load it to a new figure and have it work? I tried saving a Puppeteer preset for Genesis with four morphed faces (as dots), but when I loaded it for a new Genesis, the dots had saved no data. I asked some DAZ guys about this, but no one responded.
Thanks in advance.

Sokoto — As part of efforts towards eradication polio in Nigeria, some victims of the disease yesterday held a rally against it in Sokoto.
The rally, which was organized by the National Polio Victims Trust Association, took the participants round the streets of Sokoto and ended at the Sultan Palace Sokoto.
They stressed the need to ensure all eligible children are fully immunized against the disease including those areas hard to reach.
Addressing the polio victims, Sultan Muhammad Saad Abubakar, who was represented by District Head of Bodinga Alhaji Bello Abdulra'uf assured that they would sustain current efforts in massively sensitizing parents that the polio vaccine is safe for their children.
While noting that there some religious, political and cultural reasons that make some parents to reject the polio vaccine, the sultan however said they are working round the clock to redress the situation.
National president of the association Alhaji Aminu Tudun-Wada urged parents to allow their children to be immunized against the disease.

Susan Blackmore's article (1 August, p 36) describes "temes", as the third replicator, the first being genes, the basis of biological evolution, and the second memes, the basis of cultural evolution.
Following Blackmore's own logic in The Meme Machine, digital information is in fact a natural extension of meme-driven evolution. She postulates a difference between memes and temes, based on the fact that the latter are digitally stored and processed. However, she neglects the fact that the ultimate requisite for a replicator is self-sustained selection. Nonetheless, the battle between different temes still occurs in our primate brains, not in the digital realm. As long as this is the battleground, temes shall remain memes.
Borrowing on Blackmore's example, the evolution of Google's processing systems is clearly meme-driven, not teme-driven. Google's filtering algorithms do not evolve in response to the data they process, but in response to their success at persuading ...
