What you will need:
A double broiler setup, I am using a medium sized pot with water in the bottom and a glass bowl on top
Silicon ice cube trays, you could use plain squares but its much more fun to use shaped trays.
Caramel (I suggest making your own caramel but if your feeling lazy you could use pre-made caramel)
Step 1: Melt the Chocolate
Setup your double broiler and let the water in the bottom come to a boil
While the double broiler is heating up cut up the chocolate so that it will melt faster
Once the water in the double broiler starts to simmer turn off the heat and add the chocolate
The residue heat from the water should melt the chocolate, if it does not melt all the way you can turn the heat on a little to help the melting process.
Step 2: Assemble Chocolates
Use the spoon (or your finger) to move the chocolate around the mold so it covers the bottom and side walls of each compartment
Then put a spoonful of caramel into each of the compartments
Finish by adding a layer of chocolate over each caramel
Step 3: Let the chocolate set up
Once the chocolates are set up gently push them out of the tray
You can use this same process to make chocolates with many delicious centers such as nuttella, peanut butter or nuts. The possibilities are endless!

Preserving the Past, Informing the Future

John Wallace Banks was well prepared when he entered upon his judicial career. He was a sound and experienced lawyer and possessed an unusual number of personal qualifications, one of which was a judicial temperament, difficult to define, but of vital importance in the making of a successful judge.
He was born on September 22, 1867, in Bethlehem in Litchfield County, Connecticut, the son of George W. and Eliza Frances Banks. His ancestry has been traced to John Banks, a graduate of Oxford University and a lawyer, who settled in Wethersfield in 1643. Our John Banks was graduated from Yale in 1889, Phi Beta Kappa, with high honors in political science, history and law, and from the Yale Law School in 1893, having been associate editor of the Yale Law Journal for a brief period. He was admitted to the Connecticut bar in 1893 and in that year established a law partnership in Bridgeport with William T. Hincks, his Yale classmate. In 1896 he was married to Mary Cowles Gay, of Farmington.
In October, 1898, Judge Banks was appointed referee in bankruptcy, the first in Fairfield County after the passage of the federal Bankruptcy Act, and served for twenty-two years, during which period he continued in the active practice of law in other than bankruptcy matters. In 1902 Allan W. Paige joined the law firm of Banks and Hincks, but the firm was dissolved in October, 1905, when Mr. Hincks went into the investment banking business. In July, 1912, John W. Banks and Edward K. Nicholson joined forces. They continued their association until Judge Banks began his judicial career on January 10, 1920, after appointment to the Superior Court upon nomination by Governor Marcus H. Holcomb.
Judge Banks served on our highest trial court until his elevation to the Supreme Court of Errors on April 21, 1927. He was pretty nearly the ideal trial judge. His patience was remarkable, but there was always an unobtrusive admixture of firmness. He skillfully shortened the proceedings by defining the relevant issues and insisting that the irrelevant ones be discarded. Were there a degree "Master of Relevancy," it should have been awarded to John Banks. Courteous, serene and unruffled, he appeared to get more so during the wear and tear of difficult trials, but in fact he was very much in command of any situation that arose. His charges to juries were legal masterpieces, concisely reviewing the relevant facts and the applicable law, in clear, easily understandable language.
The transition from the very active life of the trial judge to the somewhat solitary and secluded existence of a justice of the Supreme Court is always a difficult one. It was so with Judge Banks. He liked the excitement attending the trial of cases. He enjoyed studying the witnesses, their testimony, their personal characteristics. He knew human nature and was adept in the art of "sizing up" witnesses. The lawyers liked and admired him. Soon, however, he became accustomed to the arduous work of the Supreme Court, and his ability to write concise opinions which revealed his mastery of the law and his penchant for relevancy was notable. He served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court until his retirement at the age of seventy.
John Banks was a delightful and interesting companion. He and his lovely wife entertained extensively in the fine home which, perhaps to an unusual extent, was the heart and center of their lives. John was an ardent fisherman, a lover of the outdoors. A fine woodsman, he maintained an active membership in the Metabetchouan Club in Canada. Slight of build and wiry, he was exceedingly hardy. Golf was a favorite pastime. It was a joy to play with him, for his companionship was extremely rewarding. When he made on good drive his only ejaculation was "Pshaw," and when he made a good one, he exclaimed "There."
John Banks died on March 8, 1958, at the ages of ninety, following an illness of considerable length.[footer.htm]

When actress Cloris Leachman hoisted a leg up on the judges' desk after a brisk number on "Dancing with the Stars" Monday night, she shocked people with her sexy ploy. But she also wowed people with her agility.
At 82, Leachman survived the first round of the dance competition show, all the while donning high heels, a tight gown and spinning with the best of them.
It was entertainment, sure, but doctors say it is an example of what many people could be capable of doing in their 60s, 70s, and 80s.
According to Leachman's publicist, she could not grant any interviews this week. But a representative from "Dancing with the Stars" said Leachman got "the thumbs up" by four doctors on the set.
"I say kudos to Cloris Leachman," said Dr. Mark R. Hutchinson, professor of orthopedics and sports medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
"Dara Torres in the Olympic Games in her 40s winning the silver medal and Cloris Leachman at 82 years old on 'Dancing with the Stars,'" said Hutchinson. "The message is clear: Our pre-determined expectations, based on age alone, are clearly wrong."
Yet, some expectations about age, with people's bad backs and broken hips, surely must be right. Hutchinson and other doctors recommend watching the risks of exercising and achieving Leachman's fitness level.
"While age is a factor related to injury risk, it's more important to look at a person's physiologic age, rather than calendar age," said Hutchinson.
By "physiologic age," Hutchinson means the state of a person's lungs, heart, balance, coordination, muscle, and past history of diseases. All this can put a person at risk for injury or heart trouble during exercise, no matter what their age.
Yet, when it comes to bones, older folks tend to have a clear disadvantage.
"Everybody at that age has arthritis, though some more severe," said Dr. Robert Sallis, director of sports medicine at the Kaiser Permanent Medical Center in Fontana, Calif., and the immediate past president of the American College of Sports Medicine.
Sallis said, however, "I think my biggest concern is, women at that age often have osteoporosis, or osteopenia (low bone density)."
According to the World Health Organization, 70 percent of women over the age of 80 suffer from bone loss, which translates into falls being more risky for older people.
"With a fall, the same type of impact in two people weighing the same weight is more likely to result in a fracture in an older person," said Dr. Misty Suri, a sports medicine orthopedic surgeon at the Ochsner Sports Medicine Department in New Orleans.
A hip fracture in an 80-year-old is often much more dangerous than a hip fracture for a younger person. Elderly patients can have trouble tolerating surgery, and doctors say they often get sick with pneumonia while lying in bed.
"The mortality of a hip fracture is very high," Sallis said.
But Suri said people can do a lot to overcome bone loss: With each force exerted on the bone during exercise, the bone will remodel and strengthen.
"Many people these days who are old are getting back in shape," Suri said. "We have people in their 70s, 80s, saying they are in the best shape of their lives."

Islanders' Doris Kuselj hopes injuries behind her
A&M-CC women's tennis to kick off season against Houston on Sunday
CORPUS CHRISTI - When a shoulder injury began to get the best of Doris Kuselj, Texas A&M-Corpus Christi coach Steve Moore suggested underhanded tactics.
Kuselj resisted. She didn't want to do anything underhanded. But to salvage her tennis season, Kuselj did as Moore suggested — she served underhanded.
Kuselj doesn't have to use that move anymore, but keeps it in her repertoire anyway. In good health to start this season, Kuselj can now pull the maneuver for fun or serve for power as she helps the Islanders drive for a Southland Conference title this season, which starts with a match at Houston at 2 p.m. Sunday.
The 23-year old from Dubrovnik, Croatia, can rattle off her list of recent setbacks: Mono twice in her late teens, a rotator-cuff injury two years ago and the resulting shoulder pain, as well as a broken foot this past summer.
In between, the senior has been very effective for A&M-Corpus Christi. She went 16-2 as a freshman and followed it up with an injury-laced 8-4 sophomore season. Last year, she finished the campaign serving underhand as the team's No. 2, going 8-10 despite the nagging shoulder problem.
"Her rotator cuff was giving her so much trouble, even after the surgery," Moore said. "She really struggled last season and started to have back problems.
"If any of the girls want to see the standard for caring about the team, they need to look at her. I've never had one who had so many injuries and the grit to play through them other than her and Mirna (Cicak). We would never have had the success we've had if these girls did not have the huge hearts and the grittiness and toughness to play through these injuries.
"Most girls would have said, 'Coach, I can't go.' But she insisted on playing, fought like tooth and nail to win. She had to embrace a new style and new pattern to win."
She didn't want to embrace it at first. Kuselj was hesitant about using an underhand serve, but finally realized it was the best way to stay on the court.
"It took me a while. Steve was telling me to do that, and I felt like an idiot serving underhand," Kuselj said. "I thought if I did that, I already was at a disadvantage. Once I got the groove of it, I felt OK. I still use it sometimes, and I know it (ticks) off the girls but it's fun."
So now, she has tapped into her inner Michael Chang and can use the serve as a change of pace. That's one of the few bright spots to emerge from all the injuries.
Moore took Kuselj on the advice of Petar Danolic, a player he coached at Texas Tech. The only contact coach and player had was when Moore was in Split, Croatia, recruiting someone for the men's side. Kuselj, Cicak and Bianca Discordia took a bus ride out to chat with Moore for 30 minutes.
That was it, yet they all played for the Islanders in time.
For Kuselj, the opportunity to go to the United States was a prize. In Croatia, there are no college tennis programs and few ways to study and play at a high level at the same time. In Dubrovnik, she found few opponents and spent a lot of time practicing alone.
She was a gem for Moore, setting a school record for victories by a freshman, playing even then at the No. 2 spot. As she played on, A&M-Corpus Christi transformed from a women's program that consistently finished below .500 and went one-and-done in the Southland tournament to one that competes in the league's upper tier.
She did it in pain, too.
By the end of her sophomore season, the shoulder problems began to surface. Moore knew he had a competitor, but was surprised to see Kuselj stick it out.
"She knew without her we're not a contender," Moore said. "But to have the grittiness to serve underhanded and go to the training room twice every day just to get taped, it's just amazing."
After all that, Kuselj just wants to close with a strong — healthy — senior season.
"It's been very hard," she said. "It's been tough getting a break and then coming back and practicing. But the girls on the team kept me positive about the injuries. Now I feel good, and I'm looking forward to this season."

As of Tuesday, October 22, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — No miracle comeback came Tuesday for the Darton golf team, which began the final round of the District IV Preview 16 shots behind leader Eastern Florida State.
Instead, the Cavs held off a charging Wallace State team and settled for second place at Stonebridge Golf and Country Club, finishing 16 shots behind Eastern Florida State and just five strokes in front of Wallace State.
"We barely hung on to second," said DaleDover, whose Cavs had an 8-shot edge on Wallace State after Monday's opening two rounds. "Tae (Kim) shot a good round, and so did Madison (Turner). I am proud of those two guys for holding us in there. … Second is better than third, but it's not a win."
Kim and Turner both shot 3-under 69s to help the Cavs shoot 289 as a team in Tuesday's third and final round. Kim finished the tournament at 3-under and tied for fifth individually, while Turner came in at 2-under and tied for seventh.
"The two of them really stepped up, and I felt like the other three sort of slipped a little bit," Dover said. "I felt like if we would have gotten somewhere around even par from the other guys, we would have had a pretty good round (Tuesday). We need those other scores."
Tuesday's scores from Kim and Turner were the only rounds that broke 70 all tournament from Darton's A team, which is ranked seventh in the country. Other third-round Darton scores were Jake O'Bryan 75, Rafael Miranda 76 and Taylor Martin 76.
"I played a decent round," said Kim, a sophomore from South Korea who birded two of his final four holes. "It was a good finish. But we should have won this tournament. It was our course. We had our chances, but (other Darton golfers) just had a bad day (Tuesday)."
Darton would have needed four incredible rounds to catch Eastern Florida State after the Titans shot a 272 in Monday's second round and pulled away from the field, thanks in part to Drew Cooke's 9-under 63, which tied the course tournament record.
"They came out hot in the second round (Monday)," Turner said about Eastern Florida State, which is ranked 14th in the nation. "We just didn't go low enough to hang in there with them. Any team, any day can have a heck of a run, and having a day like they did (Monday) really changed the tournament."
Cooke was the individual medalist with a three-round score of 211 (5-under), followed by Wallace State's Aksel Olsen (4-under), Eastern Florida's Arthur Leonard (4-under), Wake Tech's Jake Britt (4-under) and Eastern Florida's Brad Grey (3-under).
Darton's golfers finishing outside of the Top 10 were Jake O'Bryan (T-11th, 1-over), Rafael Miranda (T-17th, 5-over), Joshua Glossop (T-21st, 6-over), Taylor Martin (T-21st, 6-over), Elliot Hunter (T-25th, 7-over), reigning Herald Player of the Year and former Seminole County star Tyler Shamblin (T-32nd, 8-over) and Seth Sanders (T-37th, 17-over).
Andrew College was led by Timothy Blomdahl, who shot an even-par 72 on Tuesday and finished 2-under for the tournament and tied for seventh.
Behind Eastern Florida, Darton and Wallace State, the team scores were Meridian (10-over), Andrew (27-over), USC Lancaster (41-over), ABAC (45-over), Cape Fear (52-over) and Wake Tech (55-over).

text: Feedback Nail Lacquer ($12.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a "soft gold, pink, orange mylar flakes." It's as described: a mix of gold, pink, and orange flakes that shimmer and reflect as the light hits them. The consistency of the polish is very, very thick–almost gel-like–and the best application seemed to be pushing and pulling the polish into place. One coat has enough flakes that only one coat is necessary for topping your favorite nail color. I haven't used a lot of flakey top coats like this, but so far, I haven't been a big fan. Cult Nails Walk of Shame (P, $12.00) doesn't have flakes and looks darker overall. Cult Nails Happy Ending (LE, $12.00) is multi-colored but is similar with respect to the shapes.

LETTER: Photos embodied Latinos' value to local community
Apr. 23, 2014 @ 04:59 AM
To the Editor:
I have never seen such awe-inspiring photographs as those of the Via Crucis on the front and back of the A section of The Sanford Herald in the Saturday edition. We should all thank Mr. Wesley Beeson for his insightful accomplishments.
All of this confirms my whole-hearted acceptance of Latinos as an integral part of this community. Their dedication and devotion to their faith, and contributions of service, diligence and hard work, should be an inspiration to us all — not just locally, but increasingly on the national stage.
One of my closest friends is Mr. Oscar Montes, the most generous, empathetic, giving and unselfish person I have ever known.

We are live from Orlando. It's Open Fight Night and the Bound for Glory Series continues. Storm is back at #1, followed by Joe and Angle.
James Storm's music hits and he makes his way to the ring.
Storm addresses the new World Champion and congratulates Austin Aries. He says he's #1 in the BFG Series and on the fast track for a title shot but he has not forgotten about Bobby Roode. He says it's just personal between them. He addresses the Aces & Eights and says that he has b*lls and doesn't need to jump anybody from behind. He wishes Hogan to get well soon.
Storm calls out who he calls the greatest wrestler to ever step in a ring, Kurt Angle. Angle's music hits but he doesn't show. His music hits again and there is still no Angle. The crowd chants for Angle and Storm instructs a cameraman to "go get him." The camera shows Angle getting stomped by Aces & Eights, backstage.

Herd set to scrimmage
HUNTINGTON -- Call it a scrimmage disguised as a practice.
Marshall University football head coach Doc Holliday said Saturday's 9:30 a.m. scrimmage will look a lot more like a regular practice than an intrasquad game.
Attendance will be limited to Big Green Scholarship Foundation members who present a membership card, Marshall students who show a valid MU ID and anyone who has yet to submit a 2014 Football Season Ticket intent form or has questions about the process.
Gate A will open at 9 a.m. Ticket office representatives will be available from 9 to 11 a.m. to answer questions.
"Saturday is only our sixth practice this spring," Holliday said. "It's not going to be a full-blown scrimmage. We'll do more of that the following Saturday. We still have three full scrimmages after Saturday if we want. We'll do a lot of team (drills) and some situational things."
That doesn't mean the workout has to be boring. Holliday pointed to several players with whom he is pleased and fans might be eager to see. He mentioned defensive linemen Josh Brown, Arnold Blackmon and Joe Massaquoi as players who are "being challenged."
Holliday mentioned others who have stood out.
"(Wide receiver) Davonte Allen has had a really good spring," Holliday said. 'It's the first one he's been healthy. (Defensive back Keith) Baxter we've seen some good things from him. Swede (offensive lineman Sebastian Johansson) looks like he feels at home."
Red-shirt freshman offensive lineman A.J. Addison also caught Holliday's attention.
"Addison's a tremendous prospect," Holliday said of the former Fork Union Military Academy standout.
Cody Collins, a red-shirt freshman blocker from Trotwood, Ohio, was also praised.
"The goal is to come out of spring practice stronger than we started," Holliday said.
One of the worst-kept secrets of college football is players' disdain for spring practice. Marshall players, however, said they're using it as a springboard for what they figure to be a highly successful season. The Thundering Herd won the Conference USA East Division title last season and many figure Marshall will be favored to win the league title in 2014.
"It's football," sophomore cornerback Corey Tindal said of spring practice. "It's an opportunity to play. You take advantage of it when you get it."
Junior tackle Clint Van Horn said Saturday's scrimmage, no matter how short it might be, offers a chance to improve.
"It's a work day," Van Horn said. "We'll do individual and position drills. We'll attack the scrimmage like a practice. Football is football. You do what the coaches give you."

Ventura County sheriff's investigators are looking for a man said to be 35-45 years old who they say sexually assaulted a woman in an unincorporated area west of Santa Paula on Feb. 26.
Deputies said the man grabbed the woman and tried to remove her clothing around 3 a.m. The woman escaped after a rancher who was driving through the area scared off the man, deputies said.
The man was seen exiting a nearby orchard and running south toward Main Street after the assault, deputies said.
He was shaven and was wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt and faded blue jeans, authorities said. He was described as having a round face with chubby cheeks and discolored teeth.
Anyone with information about the assault or the suspect is urged to contact Detective Christine Rettura at 384-4741.
Ventura County Crime Stoppers will pay up to $1,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and criminal complaint against the person(s) responsible for this crime. The caller may remain anonymous. The call is not recorded. Call Crime Stoppers at 800-222-TIPS.

Grade 12 Commencement Ceremony
Saturday, June 9, 2:00 PM, Community Hall
The school community is invited to attend Merriconeag's third commencement ceremony. The Commencement Exercises will begin at 2 p.m. and a reception follows.
Phoebe Clewley and David Sloan Win Maine Writers and Publishers
2012 Literary Awards for Poetry
On Thursday evening, while the Community Hall was filled with the inspiring words and music of "Man of La Mancha" another event celebrating writing in Maine was taking place at the USM library in Portland. The Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance was hosting the 2012 Maine Literary Awards, honoring writers and publishers in over a dozen categories, from Fiction to Children's books, from Non-Fiction to Poetry.
This year, more than one hundred books were entered into the Award's various categories. More than fifty manuscripts were submitted into the award's "Short Works" competition in the categories of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. Nearly 80 Maine students submitted work in the same categories in the award's "Youth Competition."
The finalists hail from every corner of the state, including Bangor, Belfast, Bethel, Brunswick, Camden, Deer Isle, Georgetown, Norridgewock, Portland, Stockton Springs, Unity, and York. Youth finalists come from communities such as Farmington, New Gloucester, Scarborough, and West Bath.
Last year, Jeremy Colson, class of 2011, was a finalist and won in the category of "Youth Poetry." This year, Phoebe Clewley, Class of 2013, was a finalist in the same category. David Sloan, who submitted his students' work to this competition, was also a finalist for his collection of poetry this year, in the "Short Works, Poetry" category.
Merriconeag's "Impossible Dream" was being sung at two locations that night, as the poetry winners were announced and both Phoebe Clewley and David Sloan won their respective rewards! Joshua Bodwell*, executive director of the MWPA, mentioned Merriconeag Waldorf School several times that night. Phoebe graciously thanked the Alliance for the reward, her teacher, Mr. Sloan for submitting her poetry and Merriconeag Waldorf School for recognizing and nurturing the importance of poetry and all writing throughout the school's curriculum. I read the statement below on behalf of Mr. Sloan…
"If my wife is reading these words, then the unlikely has happened, and it appears that at least a few people besides my 87-year-old mother actually appreciate my poetic efforts. I actually feel doubly blessed this evening, because I am much more of a teacher than a poet, and it is a great honor to have one of my Merriconeag students- this year Phoebe Clewley, selected for the second straight year as a finalist in the Youth Poetry Category. In the six years since moving to Maine, I have discovered what I suppose most of you already know-that if Maine's natural wonders inspire writers to write, Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance has helped to create a remarkably rich community of those same writers. I am grateful to Josh Bodwell for his leadership in that regard, and grateful to live in a state where the welcome sign as you cross the Piscataqua Bridge could just as well read, "The Way the Writing Life Should Be."

News From the High School
College Counselor's Rave Review: I have just come from the dress rehearsal of Man of LaMancha. What I saw on that stage tonight provides ideal material for presenting Merriconeag students to college admissions folks – commitment, team work, seriousness of purpose, excellence, depth of involvement, understanding of sophisticated material, versatility of talent – from EVERY senior. My perception of a typical high school dress rehearsal is one filled with stumbles and giggles, and groans from the director; other than the tiny audience, there was nothing to suggest that the performance I saw was a dress rehearsal; that is how prepared and engaged the class was – even down to the scene changes. Those of you who attended Thursday or Friday evening no doubt were treated to an even more polished and professional show.
For those families for whom a Waldorf education has been a lifelong experience, the involvement of every student in annual theater productions may not seem remarkable, but to those from the outside looking in, as most college admission officers are, this is indeed impressive. What a Merriconeag student accomplishes over the course of a day, a week and a year, no matter what his or her level of tested ability, is in fact remarkable and worthy of emphasis in our presentation of them as admission candidates. In these early years of Merriconeag Waldorf High School, the pioneering spirit of both students and teachers is highlighted: the extraordinary energy and involvement of every student and teacher in this emerging school community defines its success. No student can hold back – even the shyest of kids must standup on stage, or express himself in art class or offer her interpretation of Dante in English class or grapple with a math concept regardless of his comfort with the material. There is no place to hide, and thus these students learn in ways that students in other schools do not and, in fact, cannot learn. Merriconeag High School students are incredibly well prepared for the college classroom and recent successes in college acceptances points to the fact that admissions committees are seeing this. And beyond what our students will contribute to the classroom, it is evident to committees that they will also add richly to the life of a college community as they have proven through their participation in the life of Merriconeag Waldorf High School.
Letters capturing these intangibles, together with the concrete (grades, testing and a profile of Merriconeag) are presented to colleges on behalf of each student, and this year has resulted in 62 acceptances to 56 different colleges. In the fall our seniors will be matriculating at Fort Lewis College in Colorado, Clark University, Mount Ida College and Wheaton College (all in MA), Macalester College (MN), UMaine-Farmington and College of the Atlantic (both in ME), Hartwick College (NY) Green Mountain College and Bennington College (VT). These students will now serve as ambassadors, bearing the standard for Merriconeag Waldorf High School as they move on to their respective college communities. We wish them all well on their next stage! ~Beth Caputi
Congratulations to the Senior Class:
Congratulations to our Seniors for the gift of Man of La Mancha. For those of us who have been to many class plays over the years, we know that with careful selection of a play and careful casting, these plays deliver some of the most potent educational experiences for our students. Man of La Mancha was a perfect choice for our twelfth grade. It explores (and rebels against) a complex literary work with humor, heartfelt song and storytelling. The casting was perfect as each senior participated in their unique way as they presented this gift to us: that what we believe (even if it is "not-real") has a ripple effect on those around us. When Don Quixote briefly revives his sanity and stands proudly yet weakly with his lady Dulcinea and his friend Sancho, I could hear grown men collectively stifling tears, grandmothers sniffling into handkerchiefs, and others (such as myself) dealing with a proverbial lump in their throats. Thank you, Seniors, for this gift and thank you to all of you who helped make it possible. Jeff O'Brien

If your team works on a shared database, you can lock objects so other people can't edit the objects while you're working on them. This means teams don't accidentally overwrite work.
After you lock an object, you can work on it and check it in as usual. When you try to edit an object locked by someone else, the server returns an error. You can still unlock other people's objects if you need to.
Setting up
To use object locking, a SQL script needs to be run on the database. You can do this from the Lock objects tab, or you can run the script manually.
For more information, and to view the script, see Setting up object locking.
Using the Lock objects tab
After locking is set up, the top pane lists objects that are currently locked in the database. The bottom pane lists objects that are currently unlocked.
The tab shows:
- the name of the object
- the type of object
- who the object was locked by
- the date the object was locked
- when the object was last edited
- the comment left by the person locking it (if one was provided)
To lock an object
- In the Unlocked objects pane, select the object you want to lock.
Type a comment explaining why you're locking the object (optional).
Click Lock selected objects.
The object is locked and appears in the Locked objects pane. The rest of your team can see you've locked the object and won't be able to edit it until it's unlocked.
To unlock objects
- Select the objects in the Locked objects pane and click Unlock selected objects. You can unlock objects even if you're not the person who locked them.
- To unlock objects you locked yourself, click Unlock all my objects. You can also unlock an object by right-clicking it.
For an example of how a team might use object locking, see Example - locking objects.

The little town of Alamo is situated just 90 miles north of Las Vegas, but the friendly community feels decades away. The quaint town marked its 110th anniversary in July of 2011, yet still maintains an appealing, small-town atmosphere reminiscent of an earlier time. The town's appealing character charms visitors passing through on their way to nearby attractions and points of interest, of which there is no shortage. Alamo sits in the fertile Pahranagat Valley, which is home to the popular tourist attraction, the Pahranagat National Wildlife refuge. The Pahranagat Refuge, one of over 500 managed areas in the Refuge system, has more than 5,000 acres of wetlands and grasslands and serves as a critical stop on the Great Pacific Migratory Route. Thousands of migratory birds and waterfowl from dozens of different species pass through the valley annually, making for a truly incredible spectacle. Visitors to the Refuge may also find petroglyphs, rock art and rock sculptures, remnants of the native people who have lived in the Pahranagat Valley for thousands of years.
Alamo is surrounded by beautiful countryside with an abundance of lakes that offer fantastic fishing. The nearby hot springs and archaeological sites are also popular tourist attractions. And as Alamo enjoys the distinction of being one of the closest inhabited places to the mysterious Area 51, it also sees its share of UFO-hunters.

It's no secret that Ryan Kesler has been struggling lately. He has just 3 points in his last 9 games and the minor foofaraw in the media over his and Alain Vigneault's comments merely focussed attention on these struggles. To be honest, though, I'm not actually that concerned about Kesler because I am confident he can turn things around. Mike Gillis doesn't seem concerned either.
I am, however, concerned about Chris Higgins.
Back in November, Higgins was tied for the team lead in goals with Henrik Sedin. He had 7 goals in the team's first 20 games, putting him on pace for 29 goals, which would have been a career high. He also used the bottom of his shirt to blow his nose, revealing his sumptuously sculpted stomach. Take a guess which one people paid more attention to.
Since then, however, Higgins has scored just 3 goals in 22 games and is now 7th on the team in goalscoring. He hasn't scored a goal in 10 games and has just 2 assists in that time. He hasn't had more than 2 shots in a game in a month.
Part of the problem is that just as Higgins was heating up, his body betrayed him, succumbing to a staph infection. The infection first swelled his foot to a gross size, then mysteriously spread to his hand, causing him to miss a few games both times. That likely threw him off his rhythm, but the real problem is that the antibiotics he's taking to deal with the infection are apparently sapping his energy.
While Kesler certainly has more expectations placed on him, it's worth considering the role that Higgins' struggles have played in Kesler's lack or results. Is it any wonder that he doesn't share the puck when his most frequent linemate hasn't done anything particularly interesting with it lately?
I have never doubted Higgins' work ethic: the guy skates hard, wins puck battles, and never stops competing. One of the best moments in Tuesday night's game against the Kings was when Higgins out-battled two opponents behind the net, gaining control of the puck with just one hand on his stick. It showed his sheer determination and illustrated exactly why he clicked so well with Kesler earlier in the season.
Right now, however, neither Kesler nor Higgins are scoring and the blame cannot be solely laid at the feet of Kesler.Tags: abs, Chris Higgins, higgins
Ask my husband, every time I watch a Canucks game and Higgins' mug is plastered on the screen I say out loud "Chris Higgins scores goals, has abs" kinda reminiscent of that scene in Zoolander where every time Owen Wilson shows up, somebody quips "Hansel. So hot right now, Hansel" Oh, I say the same thing for honey badger "Hansen. So hot right now. Hansen"
God. That is the best PITB headline (ever) in my book.
Kinda sucky that once the team starts gaining momentum, crap happens (i.e. Rome was on his way to his first Norris cup until his injury (hah), Booth and knee sprain, Higgins and staph infection, Salo and… er.. Marchand) Somehow the team manages to persevere. I think the problem right now is focus. There's this general malaise during games and I don't know what the cause is.
I hope they pull together through for the post-season. Because they sure won't make it to the second round with what they have right now game wise.
Kesler has a $5 mill cap hit, 2nd highest of any forward on the team.
Higgins has a $1.9 mill cap hit, 7th highest of the forwards on the team.
There are different expectations for both Kesler and Higgins, it's reflected in their salary/cap hits. Kesler has to find a way to produce despite his linemates. When Higgins was hot at the beginning of this season, Kesler was still non-exsistant.
Keslers lack of production is solely on him. Just as Higgins lack of production is solely on him. However, there are different ex[expectations for both guys.
"While Kesler certainly has more expectations placed on him, it's worth considering the role that Higgins' struggles have played in Kesler's lack or results."
D-wags, I think you got it twisted bro. Kesler's recent struggles have led to Higgins's lack of results. Higgins is still working hard, and that shift against LA is good evidence. He needs to do that more consistently like he was to start the year, but it's still there. Using that play as an example, Higgins digs the puck loose, Raymond ends up with it in the high slot, takes a shot and there's a juicy rebound just outside the crease for Kes who… gets beat to the puck and can't get it on goal.
Consequently, I'm not so much worried about Higgins. If he keeps working the chances will come for him and his linemates. Particularly if you end up being right and things adjust themselves so that Kesler becomes Kesler again. But that's what I'm worried about where you're not – Kesler's reaction to mediocre play is to become defensive, as we've seen a couple of times publicly this season (his "those were the best 3 games of my career" stupidity and the recent Vigneault "spat that isn't a spat" thing). No way to know what goes on outside of the public spotlight, but I get the impression that he isn't terribly interested in adjusting to deal with the adjustments defenders have made against him. If he's unwilling to do that, it WON'T get much better for him, and his linemates won't have much better luck than they're having now.

Promoting Metropolitan Land-Use Innovation
The goal of this work is to stabilize U.S. neighborhoods through innovative land use and community planning strategies.
The Challenge
Since 2000, the portion of U.S. households burdened by unsustainable housing costs has risen 30 percent; the number of low-income people living in concentrated poverty has jumped 40 percent; and the unemployment rate has doubled. Meanwhile, poverty that used to afflict central cities has now become suburbanized in most metropolitan regions.
Coordinating national housing, transportation, environmental protection, and community development policies with local metropolitan planning strategies, policies and tools, can spur sustainable and equitable metropolitan regions, and alleviate concentrated poverty.
What We're Doing
To revitalize struggling metropolitan areas and to strengthen more stable regions across the United States, we support efforts that advocate for effective "cross-silo" national policies that connect the efforts of multiple cabinet-level agencies. At the same time, we work in a manageable number of metropolitan regions to develop concurrent innovative land use, community planning, and infrastructure development strategies that drive regional development efforts.
In thriving metropolitan regions, we focus on securing well-located properties for affordable housing development through inclusionary housing ordinances, density bonuses for affordable housing, and targeted land-acquisition measures.
In declining areas, we focus on eliminating blight by acquiring abandoned properties for community-driven redevelopment and helping cities to make better use of available land.
Learn more about how our strategies and approaches shape our grant making.

Updated: 04/12/2013 7:15 AM KSTP.com By: Aaron Chalich
Each week Capcom releases a new set of games for their "Capcom Arcade Cabinet" and this past week the "1985 Pack 2" was released. The games that are included in this set are "Commando," "Speed Rumbler," and "Exed Exes(Savage Bees)." The games can be purchased as a bundle or individually which is nice.
The only game that I had played previously in this set of games was "Commando" and I it was a tough game in the arcade and it still is a very challenging game. I had played the demos earlier in the week of all three games and I was very excited to get my review code from Capcom.
"Commando" is a vertical scrolling game where the screen moves up as you play. You control a soldier named "Super Joe" and you begin the game by being dropped off in a jungle by a helicopter. Your mission is to take out all of the soldiers that are guarding a bunch of military bases.
You are armed with a machine gun that has unlimited ammo and some hand grenades. Along the way you can rescue prisoners for points and also find more hand grenades that can be used to blow up military vehicles and to take out soldiers in foxholes.
This is a very difficult game because there can be tons of enemies on the screen at once and there are bullets everywhere. You must be a very skilled gamer to get through this game.
Speed Rumbler
"Speed Rumbler" is a very interesting game. You control a character named "Super Joe" who is a different character than the one in "Commando." Your friends and family have been kidnapped and you must rescue them from the people that took them. You drive an armored vehicle that can shoot and you must attack other vehicles before they destroy yours. Along the way you can rescue people and they will fix your vehicle or give you more health. One neat thing is that if your vehicle takes too much damage, you can jump out of it and try to get through the level on foot which is very difficult.
Exed Exes(Savage Bees)
"Exed Exes(Savage Bees)" is another interesting game. You control a spaceship through levels that resemble a large bee hive. As you are flying though the levels you must shoot insects and you can also get power ups for your spaceship that will help you in your quest. One really nice feature is that when you lose a life you will start right where you died and you don't have to start the level over. This is also true when you lose all three of your lives. You can continue right where you left off.
I really enjoyed Capcom's Arcade Cabinet "1985 Pack 2" a lot. Once again it was great to play these classic arcade games. They looked amazing and they are a lot of fun to play. I know that fans of these classic Capcom games will really enjoy them as much as I did.

Golf: B.J. Staten keeps Utah Open trophy in the state
Provo • The Siegfried & Jensen Utah Open is not the Utah professional golf tournament that B.J. Staten ever expected to win.
He's not giving the trophy back, either.
Having lost access to the Web.com Tour that includes a stop at Willow Creek Country Club near his home in Cottonwood Heights, Staten found a place to play at Riverside Country Club and took full advantage of the opportunity Sunday. So maybe he needed three playoff holes and had to withstand Arizona pro Nathan Lashley's last-chance putt that rimmed out of the hole from 50 feet, but Staten produced a victory that he labeled "probably the most rewarding" of his career.
He's earned considerably bigger checks than $21,000 for his two top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour and three playoff defeats on the Web.com Tour, but he was thrilled to perform so well in his first tournament of "a very trying year," by his account.
Staten, 36, birdied No. 18 in regulation to complete an 8-under-par 64 and post a 16-under total for three rounds. Lashley, the 2009 champion, settled for a closing 69 after reaching 16 under through 11 holes Sunday.
In the playoff, Staten had two chances to win with 12-foot putts in consecutive tours of No. 18, but missed both times. So they moved to the par-4 No. 10, where Staten knocked his 144-yard approach shot a foot from the hole with a pitching wedge. Lashley's desperation 50-footer caught a lot of the hole before spinning away.
"Just tried to give it a chance," Lashley said.
Staten, who swings left-handed and putts right-handed, then completed his victory.
Staten appeared at Riverside after caddying for his friend Brice Garnett in the PGA Tour's Wyndham Championship last week, with the tight schedule preventing him from entering the Utah Open's Monday qualifying event. Devin Dehlin, the Utah Section PGA's operations director, gave Staten a spot in the field, in exchange for fielding a pro-am team.
Good move. The PGA administrators love keeping the "Utah" in the Utah Open. Staten is an unconventional winner, compared with Davis Park Golf Course pro Zach Johnson, the 2013 winner, or other homegrown champions. But the Tennessee native and self-described "Texan at heart" is a genuine Utahn now, having met his wife, Alisha, while playing in the 2010 Utah Championship at Willow Creek.
Staten opened the 2013 Utah Championship with a 63, but faded to a tie for 45th place during a rough season that resulted in his lack of Web.com Tour access this year. That explains how he went so long without playing competitively, but he responded well at Riverside with Utah Championship tournament director Mike Smith as his caddie.
Conversations with friends have made him realize "everybody's allowed a bad year," he said, and he's determined to get back to the Web.com Tour by competing in the annual qualifying tournament this fall.

Playstation Phone aka PSP Phone is real!
Looks like all these rumors are pretty much coming true, the PSP Phone or PlayStation phone is very real. Engadet has scooped some leaked photos and more info on the PSP / Android phone hyprid. Its packing a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 CPU and 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM. The screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. In the middle of the slide out PSP Go style game controls is touch slider. I have an android phone myself and PSX4droid PSX emulator. Without the hardware controls, its hopeless. Touch controls just don't do it for true gamers. This is where Sony comes in with a new Hybrid, that won't go the way of Nokia's NGage! (NGage was a hybrid gaming phone that flopped)
What else? Well the back of the PSP Phone has a camera and LED flash. Maybe it has a 5 or 8mp senor and 720p video recording?
The PSP Phone could be released this year, but its looking like a 2011 release. Maybe side by side with the PSP2?
I´m sold, I hope its not limited to certain carriers like Sprint or AT&T….
The device you see is headed into the market soon, likely boasting Android 3.0 (aka Gingerbread), along with a custom Sony Marketplace which will allow you to purchase and download games designed for the new platform. The device snapped up top (and in our gallery below) is sporting a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 (a chip similar to the one found in the G2, but 200MHz faster), 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. Looking almost identical to the mockup we hit you with this summer, the handset does indeed have a long touchpad in the center which is apparently multitouch, and you can see in the photos that it's still bearing those familiar PlayStation shoulder buttons. For Sony buffs, you'll be interested to know that there's no Memory Stick slot here, but there is support for microSD cards.
The particular model in these shots is still in prototyping mode. As such, the unit doesn't have a custom skin (not even SE's Timescape design seen on the Xperia devices), and is said to be rather buggy. We're digging into more facts as we speak, but it's likely that much of what we reported earlier is still accurate, and though the device could still be headed for a 2010 release, 2011 is looking much more realistic.

Rumors swirled that, in the wake of Kristen involvement with Snow White and the Huntsman director Rupert Sanders, R.Pattz canceled press opportunities for his next film Cosmopolis. Rob's rep and the film's distributor have since shot those stories down.
Studio reps confirm that the New York City premiere for Cosmopolis is set for Aug. 13 and that Rob is expected to attend. But what about the usual whirlwind world tour that accompanies a Twilight movie?
"While it is studio policy not to comment on the personal lives of actors," Summit's president of worldwide marketing, Nancy Kirkpatrick, told Entertainment Weekly. "Summit is moving full-steam ahead and looking forward to this November's opening of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn: Part 2."
While no specifics were mentioned concerning what the press tour this time around will contain, Kirkpatrick continued, "We are confident that the film delivers amazing entertainment for our passionate fans and general audience alike."
And the month or so leading up to it should surely deliver a different kind of spectacle. Rob and Kristen, of course, play happily wedded vampires with a newborn (and a pack of undead foes dead set on destroying the Cullen clan, but no biggie) in the last Twilight film.
Rupert Sanders & wife Liberty Ross still wear their wedding rings!
In real life, the couple is having their every move speculated upon—from where each is currently holed up to whether or not they're communicating and everything in between—so it will certainly be interesting (and water cooler-worthy) watching how they must interact together in public.
And by interesting, we mean awk-ward!
