The only way to raise money at your fundraising event is to get a lot of people to attend. What exactly is the best way to accomplish this goal? Generate excitement and draw a crowd with the following advertising ideas:
Create and Hang Posters and Fliers Putting up poster printing advertisements and flyers is a good way to get the locals interested. You can hang a print poster in several public places such as libraries, chambers of commerce, college campuses, and town halls. You can also ask local businesses if they will let you put up posters in their window; they might even let you leave a stack of flyers for people to take.
To create a compelling print poster and flyer, keep the tone up-beat and conversational; it is also best to keep your message simple so people can take it in at a glance. For the most impact, use one great image that helps explain what your cause is all about. For really attractive posters, have them printed professionally and in full color.
Write a Press Release or Editorial Your local newspaper will most likely be happy to print a press release or editorial about your fundraising event. If you explain your cause and event in a compelling way, you might even get them to feature a story about it. You never know, it might even make the front page.
Contact Local TV Stations You might even get local TV stations to do a story on your event and air it on the evening news. Lots of stations are looking for positive stories to round out their program these days.
Invite People on Facebook Take advantage of online networking sites like Facebook. Post information about the fundraiser on your page, and invite people to join a group supporting your cause. You can also send invitations to your event. Be sure to give frequent updates so people remember about it.
Do a Mass Mailing You can buy a mailing list from an online database. Then mail out short and interesting newsletters about your fundraiser. You could also mail out well designed postcard invitations to your fundraiser, since many people will not take time to read a letter; on the postcard you could include some websites related to your cause and event for people to learn more if they are interested.

Army vehicles drive down the end of the eastern highway of Sidon, south Lebanon, Sunday, September 23, 2012. (The Daily Star/Mohammed Zaatari)
SIDON, Lebanon: A probe was launched Sunday in the southern coastal city of Sidon at the alleged site of a shooting on one of MP Michel Aoun's convoys a day earlier.
Sidon's General Prosecutor Sameh al-Haj, accompanied by Lebanese Army Intelligence, judicial police and Internal Security Force's Information Branch, conducted their investigation at the end of the eastern Sidon highway leading to Beirut – the alleged site of the shooting on the convoy vehicle.
Aoun's office said Saturday that one of the March 8 leader's convoys was shot on its way back from Jezzine, where he had earlier addressed supporters in an apparent primer to the 2012 parliamentary elections.
Media reports said the shooting took place near the Bahaeddine Hariri mosque in the coastal city.
Security sources told The Daily Star Saturday that a shot was fired at a vehicle belonging to one of two decoy convoys accompanying Aoun during his return trip from Jezzine, south Lebanon.
Speaking to LBCI, Interior Minister Marwan Charbel confirmed Sunday that the decoy convoy was fired upon in Sidon and said that investigations were under way.
Aoun headed to Jezzine earlier Saturday in three convoys, two of which were decoys. The three convoys took separate routes during the journey to and from Jezzine.
Addressing supporters in Batroun, north Lebanon, later Saturday, Aoun said the incident represented the fourth attempt on his life.
Prior to heading to site, which lies about 1 kilometer from the Bahaeddine Hariri mosque, Haj met authorities at Sidon's Justice Palace to discuss and review security reports of incidents during the night of the incident.
During his probe of the area, Haj listened to testimonies of residents and workers. Authorities are also conducting a search of nearby, yet-to-be-completed buildings and an orchard as part of their probe.
Prime Minister Najib Mikati, who is in New York, contacted Aoun to check on the condition of the FPM chief following the incident.
"Mikati, after arriving in New York, contacted Change and Reform Bloc leader MP Michel Aoun and congratulated him on his safety after his convoy came under fire [Saturday]," a statement from the prime minister's office said Sunday.
Mikati stressed that "relevant security apparatuses are stepping up their investigation to uncover the circumstance surrounding the incident and that the culprits are pursued."

The failure is the most deserve a personal loan for refinancing, debt consolidation mortgage, or any type of personal loan. However, there is no doubt that failure is simply the best in your credit report. The consequences of failure are varied and can stay a maximum of ten years. But still the changing trends have given rise to a more agile and comprehensive credit personal bankruptcy.
But you are tired of listening to bankruptcy personal loans. There are enough people who are advertising for bankruptcy loans therefore it is very confusing, if it is a loan for personal bankruptcy or can not get. Bad credit is no credit is also an option, provided that credit is completely damaged. Bankruptcy is a clause. There are chances that the bankruptcy loan offer might turn out to be a fraud. You have in front of the stick on a loan for personal bankruptcy particularly careful. There are very few bankruptcy personal loans that are really important. But that does not mean that the market is free from any lender for loans with personal failure.
As with bankruptcy, you should know that the search often for a loan after bankruptcy is not feasible.

Originally written on Pirates Prospects | Last updated 7/17/13
It's hard to imagine, but the MLB Trade Deadline is two weeks away. We're starting to get some actual rumors connecting teams to players. We're even getting the Pirates connected to players like Matt Garza, Alex Rios, Nate Schierholtz, and Kendrys Morales. The rumors surrounding the trade deadline can be fun. It can be exciting to think about what players could be on the move, what prospects rebuilding teams could get, and so on. But it's important to keep perspective about the rumors. In a lot of cases, the trades that happen are the ones we don't hear about, while the rumors we hear are deals that never came to be. No one was talking about Wandy Rodriguez to the Pirates until it happened. (Photo by: David Hague) Last year we heard about Justin Upton, Chase Headley, Shane Victorino, and Hunter Pence. We didn't hear about Wandy Rodriguez, Travis Snider, or Gaby Sanchez. In 2011 the talk was about guys like Carlos Beltran. There wasn't much talk about Derrek Lee or Ryan Ludwick. It's not that the trades the Pirates actually made were bad. They were just unexpected. That's not to say that hearing about Kendrys Morales now means the Pirates have no chance of landing him. In fact, it's saying the opposite. We're going to hear a lot of things in the next few weeks. We will hear that the Pirates had a scout watching a player. We will hear that the Pirates inquired on a player. We'll hear about the Pirates strongly pursuing guys. We might even hear very specific things like "the Pirates have made an offer for Player A" without knowing what the offer is. The thing to remember is that the trade deadline can be very vague. "Inquiring" on a player can be as simple as asking if a player is available. Strongly pursuing a player could mean the team found out the guy was available, and started discussing what it would take to get him. We might even hear that an offer has been made, although that doesn't mean a trade is on the way. Everyone loves trade rumors, but the truth behind them is that they might not always be reliable information. In a lot of cases, rumors could be teams negotiating through the media. As an example, if you wanted to drive up the price of someone like Garza, you could leak that six teams were strongly pursuing him. I don't know that this rumor came from the Cubs, but it was reported in Chicago, and the Cubs are the only ones who benefit from people knowing that several teams (including a few with loaded farm systems) are going after their big trade chip. There's probably a reason you don't hear rumors about the trades that actually get made. Those deals are obviously a situation where the two teams are in agreement on the values being exchanged. Thus there would be no reason for one side to play games and try to get the other side to increase their offer. The next two weeks will be filled with rumors about specific players being connected to the Pirates in some way. It's entertaining to pencil those guys into a lineup and think about how they could improve the team. It's also possible that the Pirates could acquire one or two of those players. But based on previous years, it seems more likely that the Pirates will acquire someone we're not even thinking about today, rather than someone we will be talking about as a possibility for the next two weeks.

Industry analyst Michael Pachter has questioned the viability of Star Wars games after massively multiplayer online role-playing game Star Wars: The Old Republic saw subscriber figures fall before going-free-to-play less than a year after launch.
Speaking on Bloomberg TV, the Wedbush Securities analyst bluntly stated, "One has to question: is the demand still there?"
His comments came in response to the recent Electronic Arts-Disney agreement that will see EA become the exclusive developer of "core" Star Wars games. New projects are already in development at Battlefield studio DICE and Dead Space outfit Visceral Games.
Pachter described the Star Wars brand as a "huge fanboy experience," noting that its appeal may be starting to fade away as time moves on. He explained that he personally attended the original Star Wars movie premiere, pointing out it was more than 30 years ago.
"The fanboys are pretty old. They're getting long in the tooth," he said.
Despite his misgivings about the health of the Star Wars brand, Pachter said EA and Disney can be successful with the series by drawing on games from the past.
"Now, the past Star Wars games have been really successful. And two of the most successful ever were made by studios owned by Electronic Arts," he said. "One of them was Pandemic; they made Battlefront. That studio's been shut down so I don't know if they can do anything with that. The other, though, is Knights of the Old Republic. That was a huge seller on the Xbox only. It sold something like 7 million copies. So it would be really profitable, even with the big fat licensing fee to Disney."
Ultimately, Pachter said he believes that if EA and Disney can get it right, both companies stand to make a "ton of money."
EA will report earnings this afternoon after market close. More information about the EA-Disney Star Wars deal and the recent wave of layoffs is expected to be divulged.


text: Masterful Button wins thrilling season opener in Melbourne 18 March, 2012 195 Austrlian GP winner Jenson Button leads the pack into Turn 1 on the opening lap of the race in Melbourne Mar.18 (PVM) Jenson Button gave another one of his master performances to win the Australian Grand Prix at Albert Park in Melbourne. The Englishman seized the lead from the start and was never seriously challenged despite a drama packed grand prix which saw the deployment of the safety car in the late stages of the race. Jenson Button celebrates victory on the Melbourne podium Button showed his intent as he lined his McLaren MP4-27 slightly askew in the second place grid slot, as the red lights went out he floored it just enough to get maximum traction and good drive into Turn 1, while ahead of him his teammate Lewis Hamilton starting from pole, appeared slightly sluggish off the line and had no option but to tuck in behind Button. Thereafter, for the 2009 world champion, it was a well controlled cruise to his 13th F1 victory and third win down under. Button said, "Every win means a lot. As a team, the win shows how important the winter is. We've had a strong winter and yesterday we showed that in qualifying. It's nice to come away with victory in the first race of the new season. The guys have done an amazing job this winter. This win will definitely help them push hard in the extra hours their doing for that extra part. A big thank you to everyone at Woking for this victory. It's a pretty amazing day." Notably it is the first time in 23 races – more than an entire season – that Red Bull have not led a single lap during a grand prix… Jenson Button got an early lead and never relinquished it Reigning world champion Sebastian Vettel recovered from a mediocre (by his lofty standards) qualifying performance to take second place, aided by some good fortune and a cool head when a pace car situation arose on lap 37 – after Vitaly Petrov's Caterham CT01 came to halt on the start straight in a dangerous position – this enabled the Red Bull driver to leap frog Hamilton whose lap was compromised when he had to slow for the yellow flags and pace car. He finished third, but rued the fact that a McLaren 1-2 was lost. Vettel commented afterwards, "I decided to stay out when Lewis went into the pits and I think we would have had a crack without the safety car. Maybe it helped us a little bit to get past Lewis. We had a great stop. I thought I would be in a good position to have a go at Jenson but two corners and he was gone. It wasn't very easy to get away from Lewis but Jenson was out of sight. He deserved to win today." Third placed Hamilton said, "Firstly congratulations to Jenson – he did great job. And to the team for doing great job. It was a bit of a tough day for me, but we've got a lot of races ahead of us. I was in a very similar to position to what I was last year. It was a tough race, but still positive for the team, so hopefully we can take that on to the next race." Top three on the podium After the pace car Button got it right as he powered away from Vettel who appeared to stumble on the restart, but kept it together with Hamilton and Mark Webber chasing. Although the trio remained in close proximity, the duel was done and dusted as they followed Button over the line in that order – Vettel, Hamilton and Webber narrowly missing out on a home podium, but scoring his best ever result in Melbourne since his first attempt back in 2002. It was a bittersweet day for Ferrari after a woeful qualifying which saw the reds way down the grid. On race day, as is his custom, Fernando Alonso delivered a gutsy performance in the well below par F2012 to take fifth place – a result that was perhaps way beyond their imagination just 24 hours earlier. Alonso was made to work hard throughout the afternoon especially after the pace car period when Pastor Maldonado glued his Williams to the rear wing of the Ferrari, and although the Venezuelan got close a few times he was not given an opportunity to pounce. And then on the final lap Maldonado clipped the artificial grass, ever so slightly with just a few corners to go, and slammed into the wall. Race done. Heartbreak for Williams who were in line to score more points in Melbourne than they did in all the races last year. Alonso reflected, "We didn't lose too many points and now the priority is to improve the car. We had some interesting fights but not at the top so we need to improve quickly." Fernando alonso was stalked by Pastor Maldonado until the last lap On the opposite side of the spectrum Felipe Massa did himself no favours with probably his worst showing for the Maranello squad since he was drafted into the team back in 2006. The best part of his day was a bullet-like start that saw him move from 16th on the grid and into the top ten on the first lap and progressing up to eighth in the first dozen laps, but after that it was downhill all the way for the Brazilian as he grappled his way around the circuit until contact with the Williams of countryman Bruno Senna ended his day. The midfield provided some of the most intense action and intriguing battles of which the two Saubers were key players in a myriad frenetic sideshows. At the end of the day Kamui Kobayashi bagged sixth place and teammate Sergio Perez crossed the finish line in eighth. Splitting the Sauber pair was comeback champion Kimi Raikkonen who was involved in just about every battle and will be happy, after starting from 17th on the grid, with fifth place and surviving the race distance fraught with wheel-to-wheel encounters in the Lotus E20. A definite candidate for drive-of-the-day, considering the circumstances. For fellow Lotus driver Romain Grosjean, what promised much, ended in disappointment for the Frenchman, who was also making his return to F1. From third on the grid he had a dreadful start and was soon swallowed up by the frantic mid-pack. A couple of laps into the race he went wheel-to-wheel with Maldonado and came off second best, as contact bent the front right suspension and broke the steering on his Lotus. Early shower! Jean Eric Vergne goes farming in the Melbourne gravel For last lap antics, none in memory will match what went down in Melbourne in a few crazy minutes at the very end of the race. Toro Rosso teammates Jean Eric Vergne and Daniel Ricciardo started the final lap ahead of Force India's Paul di Resta in 11th, 12th, 13th respectively. In a flurry of big brakes and smoke halfway around the lap, Ricciardo edged passed rookie Vergne, followed by Di Resta, and taking advantage of the new boy's fumble, with an opportunist move. At precisely the same time, up ahead Maldonado self-destructed and Nico Rosberg came to a halt, meaning that Ricciardo bagged points on his home debut, Di Resta took the final point and Vergne came agonisingly close to scoring points in his F1 debut. As they say, that's racing! For Force India's Nico Hulkenberg – making a return to F1 after one year on the sidelines – it was a very short day in the cockpit and a bitter pill to swallow, considering his strong qualifying performance, as he was the victim of a first corner incident, which ended his race on the spot. Also out of the top ten, when they had looked good for a podium at least, were the Mercedes duo of Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg. The pair had great starts and tucked in behind the two McLarens early on with impresive top speed helping their cause. Schumacher was having a good run in third for the first ten laps before the W03 ran out of drive forcing him to coast to a halt, his race run. Rosberg was strong briefly but spent the afternoon defending, until the last lap when he parked the Silver Arrow with the finish-line in sight. Not a good day for the Brackley boys… Attrition was higher than is normal for the modern era, with seven retirements during the course of a glorious sunny afternoon at Albert Park. Now there's hardly a break as the F1 circus moves to Malaysia for round two and what should be another intriguing episode of the longest season in the sport's history.

Fried Calamari
|1 Pound (Fresh/Thawed/Frozen)
|1 Large
|15 Milliliter (1 Tablespoon)
|Dry unseasoned breadcrumbs
|180 Milliliter (3/4 Cup)
|Vegetable oil
|1 Tablespoon
|Tartar sauce
|1 Tablespoon
|Lemon wedges
To clean squid, work in sink.
Hold body of squid firmly in one hand; grasp head firmly with other hand; pull head, twisting gently from side to side.
Head and contents of body should come away in one piece.
Cut tentacles off head; reserve.
Discard head and contents of body.Grasp tip of pointed, thin, clear cartilage protruding from body; pull out and discard.
Rinse squid under cold running water.
Peel off and discard spotted outer membrane.
Pull off side fins; reserve.
Rinse inside of squid bodies thoroughly under running water to remove any grit or extraneous matter.
Cut squid bodies crosswise into 1/4-inch (0.5 cm) rings.
Cut reserved fins into thin slices.
Body rings, fins and reserved tentacles are all edible parts.
Pat squid pieces thoroughly dry with paper towels.
Beat egg with milk in small bowl.
Add squid pieces; stir to coat well.
Remove a few squid pieces from egg mixture and place in single layer on bread crumbs.
Turn pieces over to coat evenly with crumbs.
Place coated squid in shallow bowl or on plate.
Repeat process to coat all squid.
Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before frying.
To deep-fry squid, heat 1 1/2 inches (4 cm) oil in large saucepan to 350°F (180°C).
Fry 8 to 10 pieces of squid at a time in hot oil until light brown, 45 to 60 seconds.
Remove with slotted spoon to paper towel-lined rack.
Squid can be shallow-fried, if desired; this method uses less oil but requires slightly more hand-work.
Heat about 3/16 inch (0.5 cm) oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot; reduce heat to medium.
Add as many pieces of squid as will fit in single layer without crowding.
Cook, turning once with 2 forks, until light brown on both sides, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.
Remove with slotted spoon to paper towel-lined rack.
Repeat until all squid have been fried.

Main thing I enjoyed about this program is that its quite simple and straightforward to use - even when you're just starting to play around with subtitles. It also doesn't use/need too much CPU resources so the preview didn't lag even though my PC was under very heavy load by another program in the background.
The only complain I have about it is that my version was not bug free. Doing a spell check after 3 days of subtitling a 1.5 Hrs movie caused a drastic loss of data. The program executes MS Word to summon the spell check utility. But when I did that, some words were incorrectly found.
Eg. I had "frighten" in my text, but it found "frighte" and did not suggest "frighten". Ignoring those errors caused it to duplicate some entries, mess up my file and overwrite my file when I didn't request a save. I hope the developer will find and correct the bug.
I couldn't get my Pioneer or Philips to play srt subtitles even though they played fine on my PC.
DivXLand Subtitler to the rescue! I ran my srt files through it, it automatically made some corrections and now they play!
I think it's a wonderful tool, extremely easy to use and free too! :D
Very nice program.
As I said to the program's author, if that software put similar features like SSA have ( using the mouse for selectiong the beggining and the end of times and some buttons like: Grab Times, Play Selection, Play Next, Play Previous and other similars ), it will become a very interesting option for subtitling.
And if we could select some area in Audio Bar and see it in video screen and vice-versa, AT THE SAME TIME, it will help a lot for timing and avoing bleeding scenes, for example.
Nice tool.
Thanks for your nice work ! Keep improving it!

radeons are certainly faster, have more vram, etc. if you don't use

Now we have to take a time-out to explain "pathnames". So far we have only been manipulating files which are in our current directory. But sometimes you might want to manipulate files which are not in your current directory. For example, you may be doing a lot of work in the "dogs" directory, but you remember that you wanted to rename "tigers" to "siberians". You could accomplish this by using these commands: cd .. cd cats mv tigers siberians cd .. cd dogs (continue working in "dogs") That's an awful lot of work just to perform a simple task. Fortunately, there's a way to accomplish this task with only one command instead of five. You can refer to a filename by its "pathname". This means that you specify what "path" to follow down the tree to find the file. The path to "tigers" is marked in yellow in the tree at the right. That path is represented like this: /animals/cats/tigers We built this pathname by starting at the top of the tree with the "root" ('/') and adding "animals" to it. Then we added a "slash" ('/') every time we moved down the tree another level. We can use this pathname to accomplish our task with only one command: mv /animals/cats/tigers /animals/cats/siberians Note that the command above would actually be on one line, but we don't have enough room for it on this narrow page. Typing in a full pathname can be tedious, though, especially if you are a long way down the tree. That's why it is often easier to specify a "relative pathname". It is called "relative" because it specifies a filename relative to your current location, rather than from the root directory. If you don't put a '/' at the beginning of a pathname, then Linux knows that you are using a relative pathname. For example, if you were in the "animals" directory and you wanted to rename "tigers" to "siberians", you could do so with this command: mv cats/tigers cats/siberians In this case, you specified your pathnames relative to the "animals" directory (your current directory), so you didn't need to include "animals" in them. So far we haven't shown you how to use relative pathnames from the "dogs" directory, which was our current directory in the original example. There is a way to do it by using something we learned a few pages ago. mv ../cats/tigers ../cats/siberians Recall that ".." refers to the directory above your current directory. Click the right arrow.

What Extension Can Do For YouI'm sure that many of you have never heard of Virginia Cooperative Extension or VCE. I know I hadn't until I started working with the Virginia Cooperative Extension Warren County office; and the thought is either you know everything about extension…or you don't have a clue what extension is. I'm hoping that in reading this article, you will receive a firmer grasp of what Extension really is, and how they help Virginian's on a daily basis.

CAN'T sleep? You are not alone. Insomnia affects one in five men and one in three women at some point in their adult lives, making it the world's most common sleep disorder.
All that missed shut-eye has serious consequences. Insomnia has been linked to accidents and poor mental and physical health. It also causes economic damage because of reduced productivity and absenteeism. According to the America Insomnia Survey, published in 2011, the US loses 253 million days of productivity a year to insomnia at a cost to the economy of $63 billion.
Insomnia can be remedied if it is the result of a treatable condition such as restless legs syndrome or sleep apnoea. But for the majority of cases no underlying cause is found, and relief is hard to come by. People are told to buy blackout shades, reduce screen time or sort out whatever problem might be keeping them awake. Drugs are another option, but they don't offer a long-term solution.
The key problem is that we still don't really understand insomnia. Is it psychological? Is it physical? Is it both? No one can agree.
That may be changing, thanks to one unfortunate group of insomniacs who think they cannot drop off even though laboratory tests suggest they are logging hours of solid sleep. For years they were dismissed as "sleep hypochondriacs". Now better techniques for measuring sleep states have shown that their sleep is fundamentally different from normal, which probably explains their subjective reports of being unable to switch off (see "Awake asleep: Insomniac brains that can't switch off").
The same tricks hold promise for researchers hoping to pin down less exotic forms of insomnia. Advances can't come too soon: a 2012 survey found that cases in the UK have risen steadily over the past 15 years.
A better understanding of insomnia won't necessarily lead to a cure. But knowing that scientists are finally making inroads means there is one less thing to keep us awake at night.

The Vampire Diaries
Grace Phipps on How She Got Cast on The Vampire Diaries and How the Cast Welcomed Her to the Show — Exclusive
Talk about a killer role! Grace Phipps (Nine Lives of Chloe King) scored the role of April Young on Vampire Diaries Season 4, and it's introduced her to the show's hardcore fanbase. When Wetpaint Entertainment spoke with Grace, we had to know how she landed her guest spot and what's next for April.
Wetpaint Entertainment: How did this role come about for you?
Grace Phipps: I first went to the audition, and I loved her [April] because I have this scene where she walks up to Mystic High. And I love that she so wasn't able to do deal with the manners of "My dad just died." I just thought that was so amazing. When I read that character, I loved that she just spoke in a very self-aware way and almost self-deprecating way. I love that because I do that, and I was like "I don't know what I'm saying," or like, "Uh, is that a polite way to say that? Thank you, for being sorry that my dad — do you say, thank you? I appreciate your sorryness?"
So you had to audition. Were they aware of your previous work?
I think everyone's aware of my previous work, but I definitely auditioned. I kind of like the idea of having to audition for things because then I would show up on set and be like, how do I know if everyone's going to know I can be okay at this? So, yeah, I went in. And I did a callback, and then I auditioned for Julie [Plec, executive producer].
That's such a fascinating universe, where anyone can die at any point. it seems like everyone's kind of living on their toes?
It is a little bit of that. I don't know. I think it makes people nervous, but for me, it's just so fun to be there. The only thing that I would be concerned about if I didn't get a good death. Like if anything happens, and I got this like lame death, that would be super disappointing. As long as my character has a good arc, and I get to be on the show for a while, that's kind of enough.
Now that April has been compelled to forget the entire hostage episode, where do we go from there?
I really like that kind of friction where she's just in her home town, trying to fill her time and not have to be sitting at home thinking about her dad. So she's living in an entirely different genre than everybody else because she just doesn't know. She's a girl with one problem instead of girl in a supernatural universe where everybody's fighting all the time.
Is she going to start being aware? I assume they can't keep her in the dark forever.
I think it's hard to not eventually end up knowing what's going on in Mystic Falls because there's so much going on. It's very à la Jeremy, Season 1.
Have you ever had a fan experience like this on anything before, or is this your first encounter?
No. Fandom for this show is intense. It's great though. This is what I love about the fandom for this show. It's all so positive, and it's just people like wanting these things for the characters online. And all these Tumblrs. It's not like, "I hate that character," ever. It's always people loving the show, and a real connection.
Who's been the most welcoming person on set?
I have to say one morning, I was walking in my fitting and Claire Holt was walking into hers. And she was like, "Hey. You're the new girl. Take my number. If you're bored in your hotel, call me." It's like going into a new school a bit because they've been there for so long. And for her to do that… And Candice [Accola] is so sweet and so lovely, was immediately welcoming to me. And everyone's actually been really nice and welcoming. I just like that moment with Claire. I tell that story all the time because that's just such a nice thing. She's like, "I know what it's like to live in a hotel." She did it all last year. So she's like, "Call me."

Rainforest Alliance to independently audit APP's zero deforestation commitmentRhett A. Butler, mongabay.com
January 29, 2014
The deal, announced Thursday in Jakarta, could help boost the credibility of APP's policy, which while heralded as a breakthrough by several environmental groups, is still viewed with skepticism by some prominent critics, who remember past broken commitments from the paper producer. Rainforest Alliance knows the controversy well: in 2007 it terminated its relationship with APP after the company failed to protect high conservation value forests in Sumatra.
Unsurprisingly, the decision to re-engage with APP wasn't made lightly, according to Rainforest Alliance's Vice President of Forestry, Richard Donovan.
"There were three factors that influenced our decision," Donovan told mongabay.com. "First, there is strong commitment at the highest levels of the organization, which signals that APP is serious this time around."
"Second, we have great respect for both NGO's — The Forest Trust and Greenpeace — that are working with APP on its policy. And third, we know that deforestation and community rights are important to a number of APP's key buyers. If APP doesn't address these issues, it will face intensifying market pressure going forward."
Under the terms of the new pact, Rainforest Alliance will evaluate APP's progress in meeting four commitments in its forest conservation policy including protecting high conservation value areas and high carbon stock forests, managing peatlands to limit greenhouse gas emissions, and obtaining free, prior informed consent from local communities before developing new plantations. It will also measure APP's progress in adhering to any other public statements it has made.
The process will involve developing a set of "key performance indicators" after consultation with a wide range of stakeholders, including buyers, government, NGO's, and communities. These indicators will be the basis of a comprehensive audit that will be conducted across dozens of concessions held by APP subsidiaries and suppliers. Rainforest Alliance's final report will be made public once the audit is complete for APP's holdings in Indonesia. A separate audit will be conducted subsequently for APP's holdings in China.
Rainforest in West Kalimantan, where APP sources some of its fiber
With the agreement, the Rainforest Alliance becomes the third major international NGO to engage with APP on its forest conservation policy, which emerged after bruising campaigns by environmental groups. Greenpeace, once APP's fiercest critic, has advised APP on the development of the policy, including what kind of environmental standards are increasingly expected by major buyers, while The Forest Trust (TFT) is focused on implementation. Rainforest Alliance, which has decades of experience as a certifier for commodity production, will function as a third party auditor. The task will be a daunting one, given the sprawling nature of APP's business and the complexities around concession agreements and land tenure in Indonesia.
"This is a challenging assignment," said Donovan in a statement. "Rainforest Alliance believes that independent and transparent third party oversight is an essential ingredient for accurate reporting on progress. As we said when the FCP was announced, the delivery on the ground is what matters and the Rainforest Alliance is putting together a team and process that will independently assess and publicly report on the progress to date."
Greenpeace welcomed Rainforest Alliance's involvement.
"Rainforest Alliance comes into this as an independent, third party auditor that will deliver an objective assessment of where APP stands in terms of its commitments," Greenpeace campaigner Phil Aikman told mongabay.com. "We'll see what they are and aren't delivering. It also shows that APP is serious about change and greater openness."
Rainforest in Sumatra.
APP said the Rainforest Alliance's audit will provide the independent verification needed to demonstrate it is committed to greener practices.
"We are very happy that an organization as credible as the Rainforest Alliance has agreed to undertake this hugely important work," said Aida Greenbury, APP managing director of sustainability and stakeholder engagement, in a statement. "Since we introduced the FCP, we have made considerable progress. Our moratorium continues to be effective, our HCV assessments are almost complete and we have carried out a great deal of work on mapping social conflicts in our supply chain."
Since APP launched the forest conservation policy nearly a year ago, three deforestation incidents have surfaced, including two identified by local NGO's. In each case, APP was quick to send an investigative team, which confirmed the clearing and looked into the circumstances under which is occurred. Only one of the incidents involved an outright policy breach: in South Sumatra three companies — PT. Bumi Andalas Permai (BAP), PT. Sebangun Bumi Andalas (SBA), and PT. Bumi Mekar Hijau (BMH) — cleared 69 hectares of high carbon stock forest in a "No Go" zone. APP called the violation "unacceptable". The other two cases were more complicated. In one, 70 hectares of forest cut down under a local community agreement that pre-dated the moratorium. In the other, forest was cleared in an area where there were overlapping concessions — both an APP pulpwood supplier and an unaffiliated palm oil company had permits for the same area of land. These sorts of issues — which are common in Indonesia's forestry sector — are an added hurdle for APP and its partners in implementing the forest conservation policy, a point acknowledged by APP's Greenbury.
"It hasn't all been plain sailing," she said. "There have been a number of challenges and we have learned from these and used them to improve procedures associated with the FCP. By conducting this evaluation, we hope that stakeholders will more fully understand the challenges associated with tackling deforestation in Indonesia."
The plantation sector has been the largest driver of deforestation and peatlands conversion on the island of Sumatra over the past twenty years. Due to the high carbon content of these ecosystems, oil palm and pulp and paper plantations have been responsible for millions of tons of carbon emissions, while also further endangering charismatic species like tigers, rhinos, elephants, and orangutans. Therefore conservation commitments from these companies are particularly important for reducing Indonesia's high rate of deforestation associated greenhouse gas emissions. Other companies that have signed pledges similar to APP's include palm oil giants Golden-Agri Resources and Wilmar. Earlier this week, APRIL, APP's biggest competitor, announced a forest conservation policy, which environmentalists say falls far short of APP's policy.
