Page 28 - www.corbymagazine.com Play Schemes Saved This issue in pictures A lot has been going on in Corby in the past three months. Here's some of the pictures taken whilst making this issue I`ve actually heard this said by people, usually from Kettering or Wellingborough to be fair, that "Corby is a great place to come FROM, and the further FROM it the better". Some witty wag local journalist, cheers Paul, even suggested I was the "best thing out of Corby since the A6003" when reviewing a Chuck the Poet gig back in days of me waxing lyrical. I was OK but never as road worthy as the A6003. For those are not aware, or care or are just indifferent, I'm currently on a 6 month round the world trip that has taken me from Asia to the Antipodes and onto the Andes and on route would you believe it. I've bumped into people from Corby. In Bangkok, I was offered shelter by Ian. Not a chap I knew well but we were both from Corby, shared friends on Facebook and we had once shared a beer in Stanion. Ian put me up for a week after another Corby friend on Koh Chang 4 inch scar. Not Fraser's fault in any way and the aloe vera gel was welcoming, but me, on a bike? Anyway, both Ian and Fraser are doing very well for themselves in different areas of Thailand, one teaching, the other in tourism and both originally from the town that lends its name to this publication. "S OME WITTY WAG LOCAL J OURNALI S T , CHEER S P AUL , EVEN S UGGE S TED I WA S THE " BE S T THING OUT OF C ORBY S INCE THE A6003" In Australia there are loads of ex-Corby-ites, particularly in Perth, WA where they have all being introduced to each other based on the simple fact that they all arrived from this friendly little Northants town. I was in Perth for 4 days and met no less than 15 of them. Stand up and take a bow the Garvey's, the Yeoman's and monsieurs Rock, Russell and Ironmonger. All still have family in Corby. In Sydney, I stayed with the Wilsons. Wonderful people and with only half of the couple from Wheatley Avenue, I was still welcomed with open arms before catching up with Lisa and then Heidi, more of the ex pat Corby contingency. So as I sit in a hostel in Santiago, the Chilean capital, knowing that I will be coming home in early April, I too will say "Corby is a great place to come from...and return too and watch it grow".

Re: Any Ethical Hackers?
I find the CUDA stuff interesting, nice to know that stuff snowman.
One thing I've discovered and have tested in my virtual environment are programs called "RATs" or Remote Access Tools. The concept is that you download a program, the program will build a client .exe for you. You find a "way" to deploy that to people's PCs via torrents, YouTube, etc. Once that client is installed and running on the victim's PC, you have FULL access to their computer, including the ability to change the registry on the fly, view their webcam and even their screen at your will without them even knowing. Now that is scary.
So what makes anti-virus apps not pick this stuff up? When the client is created, it is usually encrypted by a high level method of encryption, thus it can't be detected by AV.
One other thing that I've found that's scary is recruiting of clans, or at least the clans who have harmful intentions. Some clans just want to have fun and some others just want to steal your info for $$$.
After doing all this research, I definitely don't wanna be hacked EVER. But if I am one day, I'd like to know how it happened and how to strike back. Anyone who hacks me needs to be hurt twice as much, technologically speaking of course.

David Zambrano's electrifying collective of performers tours the U.S.
Take a batch of performers, hailing from places like Slovakia, Mozambique, and South Korea, game for anything. Plop them down in an art gallery, fish market, even an actual stage. No chairs: Let your audience drift, settle, and drift some more. Crank up the volume on classic soul—James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle—as one extravagantly costumed dancer after another spontaneously seizes ground anywhere amid the milling crowd and explodes into a song-length solo, not just making up movements but touching primal, electric ecstasy comparable to the driven voices.
This is Soul Project, directed by world traveler/master improviser David Zambrano, a native of Venezuela now based in Amsterdam. New York got its first, unforgettable taste in 2010 during Ralph Lemon's i get lost platform at Danspace Project, a series of events tracing links between performance and trance. That same year, a 50-stop tour took Soul Project to adventures in Senegal, Poland, Costa Rica, and beyond. Zambrano discovered that "our way of dancing reaches much further than what we thought, helping us to become more interconnected with our planet Earth. Our audience can be anyone in this world."
In Slovenia, one dancer veered out into traffic, confronting a street full of angry drivers. "For a moment we thought he'd get injured," Zambrano said. "But by the end of his solo, everyone was happily smiling. One of the best shows we ever had."
Part of Soul Project's immediacy and wonder is that you never can tell where one of its virtuosic solos will break out. But you can learn where to experience this phenomenon when it returns to the U.S. this spring. Details on the Milwaukee, New York, San Francisco, Austin, Stanford, Minneapolis, and Miami engagements can be found at www.mappinternational.org.

Restaurant review: Stuart's Chris D'Anna's takes food, service seriously
From the moment you walk in, Chris D'Anna's lets you know that this is a restaurant that takes its food, service and patrons seriously. The staff is polite, knowledgeable and friendly they treat you as if you know the chef personally and share the experience with you, not at arm's length. The menu is balanced and well thought out, with a full page of specials offered each evening making it sometimes difficult to decide.
What is evident from the onset is that Chef David (formerly of The Landing on Nettles Island) has chosen to focus on quality, flavors and interesting combinations in a contained environment. There are probably no more than a dozen tables in the restaurant, but there are 15 starters, soups and salads and more than 20 entrees (including specials) to choose from that clearly show the intent of the chef is to offer a dining "experience."
We began with asparagus bundles and herb breaded artichoke hearts ($7). Thin, al dente asparagus wrapped in prosciutto is stuffed with gooey mozzarella surrounded by plum tomato sauce and balsamic reduction for dipping. The artichoke hearts were like warm, tender pillows that explode with flavor in your mouth and are neither heavy with bread nor doused with sauce. These are outstanding choices that have never failed in a few visits.
Salads are superb, generous in size and thoughtful in composition. David's Funghi salad ($7) is no exception. Warm, sliced Portobello mushrooms, sliced apples and crumbled blue cheese atop mixed greens with balsamic vinaigrette reminded me of summers in the Mediterranean. The warm, grainy rolls in their small baskets were a perfect complement.
The chef seems to have a sense of humor, and shows it in his menu (example: "Fish and Other Water Dwellers" is a heading). But his food is serious. There are pasta dishes and some old standards that you can find anywhere (Linguine with Clam Sauce, Stuffed Shrimp, Chicken Parmesan) but where he shines is with more inventive recipes.
The grilled Mahi fillet ($19) was mild and unobtrusive without much panache but had fresh flavor nonetheless. The semi-boneless half roasted duck ($18) has been a joy twice now, and the sauce changes nightly depending on ingredients and the chef's mood. The prune sauce was delightful and the curried rice added a great twist. All entrees are served with vegetable and either rice or potatoes of the evening.
The wine list is moderately priced and offers more quality wines by the glass than many other establishments. Two glasses of Geyser Peak Sauvignon Blanc (each $7) were poured without restraint. The profiteroles ($6) made of homemade pastry and stuffed with ice cream were an absolute delight and a perfect ending to a memorable meal.
Chris D'Anna's may not be the kind of place you can go and eat every night of the week (dinner for two including gratuity came to $95) but it is worth keeping on your list when you want to expand your food horizons in an intimate environment without going out of town.

From the bestselling author of The Monsters of Templeton comes a lyrical and gripping story of a great American dream.In the fields of western New York State in the 1970s, a few dozen idealists set out to live off the land, founding what would become a commune centered on the grounds of a decaying mansion called Arcadia House. Arcadia follows this romantic, rollicking, and tragic utopian dream from its hopeful start through its heyday and after. Arcadia's inhabitants include Handy, a musician and the group's charismatic leader; Astrid, a midwife; Abe, a master carpenter; Hannah, a baker and historian; and Abe and Hannah's only child, the book's protagonist, Bit, who is born soon after the commune is created.While Arcadia rises and falls, Bit, too, ages and changes. If he remains in love with the peaceful agrarian life in Arcadia and deeply attached to its residents—including Handy and Astrid's lithe and deeply troubled daughter, Helle—how can Bit become his own man? How will he make his way through life and the world outside of Arcadia where he must eventually live? With Arcadia, her first novel since her lauded debut, The Monsters of Templeton, Lauren Groff establishes herself not only as one of the most gifted young fiction writers at work today but also as one of our most accomplished literary artists.

The Predictive Value of HER2 in Breast CancerPiccart M. · Lohrisch C. · Di Leo A. · Larsimont D.

Measurement of molecular markers predictive of response to therapy should enable more selective and effective utilization of anticancer agents. The predictive value of HER2 remains a complex and inconclusive subject. In metastatic breast cancer, HER2-positive, ER-positive patients can show responses to endocrine treatment, but experience shorter time to progression and survival than HER2-negative patients. In the adjuvant setting, weak, retrospective evidence suggests that tamoxifen is potentially harmful in HER2-positive patients and that there is no benefit from prolonged tamoxifen therapy. It has not yet been demonstrated conclusively that HER2 positivity increases resistance to adjuvant cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, 5-FU (CMF), but there are indications that HER2-positive patients benefit more from adequately dosed anthracyclines than from CMF. The greatest value of HER2 as a predictive marker lies in the prediction of response to therapies that target HER2, such as Herceptin®. Patients with strongly HER2-positive breast cancer derive significant clinical benefit from single-agent and combined Herceptin therapy. HER2 testing has become an integral part of the optimal management of the breast cancer patient. Best current practice in adjuvant breast cancer therapy based on the current knowledge of the potential predictive power of HER2 constitutes not denying tamoxifen to HER2-positive, ER-positive patients or CMF to HER2-positive patients. Outside of clinical trials, adequately dosed anthracycline-based chemotherapy is the current preferred adjuvant treatment option for HER2-positive patients.

Finest Known 1890 Half Eagle, MS68 NGC1890 $5 MS68 NGC. Phenomenal quality for this or any other issue in the Liberty Half Eagle series. The sheer eye appeal of this coin helps secure the lofty MS68 designation. Sharply defined in all areas, the fields are bright and shimmer with semi-prooflike reflectivity, as one might expect of an issue of just 4,240 business strikes. The surfaces are not completely free from post-striking marks, but are temptingly close and certainly none are obvious to the unaided eye. A dark russet toning spot is noted over the arrowheads on the reverse, this being stated for future identification purposes. To state that this coin is the finest known of the few pieces that are known is to state the obvious. It is likely that a wealthy collector acquired this piece directly from the Philadelphia Mint. But who really knows for sure? Perhaps someone noticed the low mintage at the time of issue, celebrated a 50th anniversary, or marked the arrival of a first-born child. For the entire With Motto type, including the more readily obtainable issues, only 10 other pieces have been so graded by NGC, while 4 are certified finer (4/05).(#8375) (Registry values: P3) (NGC ID# 25Y2, PCGS# 8375)

Photoshop Masking and Compositing: Fundamentals is the introductory installment of Deke McClelland's four-part series on making photorealistic compositions in Photoshop. The course shows how to make selections, refine the selections with masks, and then combine them in new ways, using layer effects, blend modes, and other techniques to create a single seamless piece of artwork. Deke introduces the Channels panel and the alpha channel, the key to masking and transparency in Photoshop; reviews the selection tools, including the Color Range tool , Quick Mask mode, and the Refine Edge command; and shows how to blend masked images so they interact naturally.
In this exercise, we are going to apply a layer of ghoulish color to this guy's skin. And we are going to do so once again using a combination of Color Range and Refine Edge. And over time, you'll get a sense for just how ideally suited these two commands are, for selecting general Luminance Ranges inside Photoshop. I have saved my progress as Cool composition.psd found inside the 07_refine folder. We are going to create this new layer below the eyes layer, so I want you to go ahead and click on that Dude layer, and just so I can make a point here, select the layer Mask thumbnail.
Now generally speaking, this is not the way you want to work, and I'll show you why? Go up to the Select menu and choose a Color Range command. My last applied Fuzziness value was 20 and all of a sudden my image has totally disappeared. Well I am going to go ahead and click somewhere inside of what's supposed to be the face and maybe Shift+ Drag across his face, like so. And we end up creating this weird selection, and not only that, if I click OK, I have replaced the layer Mask. So that's what happens when you have a layer Mask selected and you choose a Color Range command, you all together get rid of the previous layer Mask and replace it with that New Color Range selection.
Which 99 out of 100 times is not what you want. So I will press Ctrl+Z or Command+Z on a Mac, to undo that modification. Now I'll go ahead and click on the Smart Object thumbnail to make it active. That way you'll generate a selection outline. Then go up to the Select menu, choose a Color Range command and I want you to crank that Fuzziness value all the way up to 200 and then click on the guy's cheek, like so. And that's it. Just one click, no Shift+Clicks that will select those midtones and highlights inside the face quite nicely, click OK in order to create that selection outline.
Now I want you to go up to your Color panel, and assuming that you're looking at your H,S,B values, I want you to dial an 180 degrees for the Hue, the Saturation should be 25 and the Brightness should be 75%. Then go ahead and press the Enter key or the Return key on the Mac to accept those values. Now I want you to press the Alt key or the Option key on a Mac, click the black/white icon at the bottom of the Layers panel and choose Solid Color. And let's go ahead and name this layer ghoul, and click OK. And you create a new solid color layer that automatically uses those exact same color values that you dialed in for the foreground color just a moment ago.
Click OK in order accept that change. Now notice that the colors leak outside of the guys face. In my case, I'm creating a kind of cyan ring around the moon. You may see a vertical stripe of cyan over on the left-hand side of your image. Either way, what you want to do is press the Alt key or the Option key on the Mac and click the horizontal line between ghoul and dude layers, in order to clip those new colors inside of the face. All right, now obviously we need better integration, so I am going to change the Blend mode from Normal to Screen, which ends up creating a very bright effect.
I am not sure if it's ghoulish or not, but it certainly is overwhelming the image. What we want to have happen is, we want to go ahead and brighten the highlights as well as the midtones inside the image, but we want to leave the shadow details unscathed. And the easiest way to accomplish this is to press the Alt key or the Option key on a Mac and double-click on that cyan swatch, and because you have Alt or Option down, you'll bring up the layer Style dialog box. Now drop down to this Underlying layer slider, which we'll discuss in more detail in the Advanced Blending course.
But for now, I want you to press the Alt key or the Option key on a Mac and drag the right half of this black triangle all the way over until that middle value reads 200. And that goes ahead and covers up the brightest luminance levels from 200 to 255 with this new ghoulish color. And it creates a drop off from the luminance level of 200 all the way down to 0, which is black. We shouldn't be covering up the darkest colors at all. So I drag the left half of this black triangle up to 50. Your Underlying layer value should read 50/200, and then the final one is 255, at which point, go ahead and click OK, in order to accept that change.
All right, now that we have the ghoulish skin, and I guess I really oughtn't to refer to him as a ghoul, because, in fact, this is about my skin coloring. We want to go ahead and add these dark details, so it looks like he's been up for about nine consecutive days, and we will add those dark circles below the eyes and the lips, in the next exercise.

Briscoe brace shocks Rhinos
Hull end 11-game losing streak against reigning champions
Last Updated: 05/05/12 9:43pm
England winger Tom Briscoe ran in two scintillating tries to help Hull FC record a first win against Leeds in five years.
The hosts ran out 34-20 winners at the KC Stadium, ending an 11-game losing streak against the reigning champions that stretched back to 2007, while also halting a run of impressive results of late for the Rhinos.
The win lifts Hull to within three points of league leaders Wigan, while Leeds stay in seventh, a further three points behind.
The game had remained in the balance for long periods until Briscoe settled the result with an 80-minute breakaway try in front of watching national team coach Steve McNamara.
To compound Leeds' woes teenager Ben Crooks, son of FC great Lee Crooks, then made the scoreline look even more flattering with his first career try in the closing minutes.
The Rhinos had gone in front early thanks to a touch of good fortune as Ben Jones-Bishop dotted down from a forward pass missed by referee James Child.
Brighter start
Hull had made the brighter start and despite now trailing, the hosts continued to control the early stages, gaining parity on the scoreboard soon after thanks to Danny Tickle's eighth try of the season.
Tickle then thought he had handed Hull the lead when he collected half-back Brett Seymour's high kick, only to see his try chalked off by video referee Ian Smith for an apparent knock on in grounding the ball.
Handed a free role in the halves, Seymour was pulling the strings effectively for the home side with the Aussie showing the type of direction Hull had missed in his absence against Wigan last time out.
After their let-off with Tickle's try being ruled out, the Rhinos took full advantage, showing their clinical edge as Kevin Sinfield found Carl Ablett with a perfectly timed pass to put the centre in at the corner.
Undeterred, Hull came back once again, catching Leeds cold with two tries in as many minutes as they made sure of going in at the break holding the advantage.
First winger Will Sharp weaved his way across to finish a flowing move out wide started by influential hooker Danny Houghton.
Then straight from the kick-off Willie Manu's pass inside his own half sent teenager Crooks free down the wing, with Crooks in turn then setting England international Briscoe on his way for a try by the posts.
Extending advantage
Starting the second-half as they had the first, Hull wasted little time extending their advantage to eight points when Tickle added to his tally with a penalty from in front of the posts.
Referee Child had peppered the opening 40 minutes with a series of penalties which interrupted the flow of the game.
The pattern continued in the second-half but to Hull's advantage as two further penalties allowed Tickle to hand his side some breathing room on the scoreboard.
Hull needed that when Ryan Hall crossed over for Leeds with 15 minutes remaining, but when Sinfield missed the conversion the Rhinos were left needing a further two scores.
Danny McGuire did go over for another Rhinos try, but by then it was mere consolation after Briscoe had already picked up his second of the night and Crooks had captured his first try.
Briscoe's in particular was a stunning effort, busting through a clutch of tacklers before powering clear.

The opinions of all you maniacs in the Comic Vine community were pretty divided, as I recall, regarding the JONAH HEX trailer. Appetites seemed to run hot or cold, with few feeling "in between" about it. Me, myself, I thought it looked like fun. I'm not marking the days until its release, but I'll probably check out when it starts playing in theaters next month. I am intrigued, indeed, to hear what a film score by heavy metal band Mastodon will sound like, even if it's an abridged one (according to their front man).
Either way, Spin-Off Online's gotten a series of four character posters for the movie, depicting tattooed-assassin Burke (Michael Fassbender), terrorist-from-the-old-west Quentin Turnbull (John Malkovich), pistol-packing prostitute Leila (Megan Fox) and Josh Brolin as the gunslinger with the raw nerve and the even rawer face… Jonah Hex. These posters look pretty (well, Hex's looks ugly, but in a good way), though I'm a little miffed that Michael Shannon hasn't gotten a poster for his character, Dr. Cross Williams, the gladiatorial circus ring leader. I'm a fan the actor, for one, and c'mon… if you included him, here, we'd be just one "bullet" shy of a loaded six-shooter, wouldn't we?
Ah, I couldn't help it…
But it's not important what I think of these posters, but rather what you, the maniacs of Comic Vine community, think of them. Do they make you want throw out a "Yippy yay kay yay!" and charge into the wild frontier? Or do they make you want to tip your hat politely and ride your horse into the sunset, real quiet-like?
And just in case you missed the trailer the first time 'round, we've got it here for you, like a tumbleweed rolling back into town.

Originally written on Project Spurs | Last updated 3/19/13
The San Antonio Spurs have recalled Aron Baynes from the Austin Toros today. [Press release] Spurs recall Aron Baynes: http://j.mp/Yp1oc1 #GoSpursGo This shouldn't be too much of a surprise as the Spurs are trying to win games but also rest some of their main rotational players. Since the team has been without Tony Parker, the majority of the players like Tim Duncan have had to use up more energy on both ends of the floor. With Baynes recalled, this may grant some of the Spurs big men rest if the game is out of hand early on or if a favorable matchup presents itself next game.

Nick Lowe
In the midst of his career renaissance as the silver-fox master of many musical milieus comes the 30th anniversary reissue of Nick Lowe's debut solo album. Jesus of Cool has been restored to its original title and running order after first seeing life in the U.S. as Pure Pop for Now People. In the liner notes of the new edition, Lowe says he and his manager cribbed the title from a music journalist's description of him. "We thought it was ludicrous but fantastic, an outrageous thing to say." Equally outrageous is how well the material has held up for three decades — a testament to Lowe's solid skills as a songwriter. After years as a driving force of England's pub rock scene with the band Brinsley Schwarz, Lowe aligned himself with his nation's emerging punk movement — producing early recordings by The Damned, Elvis Costello, and others — and reinvented himself musically as well. Jesus put him at the forefront of the nascent New Wave with signature songs such as "I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass" and "So It Goes." The reissue features a generous 10 bonus tracks from the same period. Best of all, this disc is slated to be the beginning of a long overdue Lowe reissue series.
