SOHO Sues City Over Balboa Park Plan (UT San Diego: August 13, 2012)
It's disappointing that SOHO has chosen to waste taxpayer dollars by suing the City of San Diego in an attempt to subvert a two year democratic process. The Plaza de Panama project was approved after extensive community outreach and input (with over 200 meetings), a unanimous planning commission recommendation, and a 6-1 city council vote. The environmental review for the project was the most extensive ever done in Balboa Park history and considered over 20 alternatives. This painstaking and comprehensive effort balanced the interests of all San Diego citizens and Balboa Park users, and concluded that the approved project best prepares Balboa Park for the next 100 years while still honoring its past. It is now time for all of us to move forward with reclaiming the plazas from cars and returning them to the people.

Did Israeli Helicopters Land And Deliver Equipment In Saudi Arabia?
June 24, 2010
The report came from the FARS news agency in Iran. On Thursday, Ha'aretz repeated the story: "Iranian news: IAF choppers land at Saudi Arabia airport." If FARS is correct, the landing apparently occurred on June 18 and 19.
The End of the Affair
June 22, 2010
On Twitter this afternoon we had some fun remembering French embarrassments in Africa: the Battle of the Nile, Fashoda, Mers El Kebir, Suez, Bocassa, Rwanda and now, of course, South Africa 2010. Flippant, obviously, but France's meltdown this tournament has been richly entertaining (the shame of it is that Les Bleus cannot meet England. Now *that* would be a perversely amusing moment of anti-entertainment). Apart from the Irish, no one has enjoyed this tournament more than the French themselves. Few countries, after all, do self-mortification quite as well as the French.
The Party Line
April 07, 2010
Russia and the Arabs: Behind the Scenes in the Middle East from the Cold War to the Present By Yevgeny Primakov Translated by Paul Gould (Basic Books, 418 pp., $29.95) Over the decades, many people in the West, and certainly most Israelis, came to view the Soviet Union and then Russia as a force for ill, if not evil, in the Middle East, and perhaps farther afield as well.
What Are Nukes Good For?
April 07, 2010
The nuclear order seems to be falling apart. Gone is the uneasy balance between the cold war superpowers. We now face a slew of new nuclear actors. North Korea has reprocessed enough plutonium for perhaps ten bombs, in addition to the two it has already tested. Iran's centrifuge program seems poised to produce weapons-grade uranium. And Syria was apparently constructing a clandestine nuclear facility, before it was destroyed by Israeli air strikes in 2007. It's not just enemies that pose a problem.
Yes, We Have To Save Yemen, Too
February 13, 2010
No, I am not deserting the president on this one either. Any country that is under siege by Al Qaeda is likely to have strategic and/or ideological interest to us. But it's a big stretch to argue that we have a democratic interest in Yemen's future. It will not be before hell freezes over that we may have such an interest in Yemen. That time is neither now nor tomorrow. And since history in the Arabian Peninsula moves in geological time, let's stop deluding ourselves about another democratic ally. Our interest in Yemen is strategic.
Derisionist History
November 28, 2009
Israel and Palestine: Reappraisals, Revisions, Refutations By Avi Shlaim (Verso, 392 pp., $34.95) Avi Shlaim burst upon the scene of Middle Eastern history in 1988, with the publication of Collusion Across the Jordan: King Abdullah, the Zionist Movement, and the Partition of Palestine. Before that, as a young lecturer at Reading University in England, he had produced two books, British Foreign Secretaries Since 1945 (1977) and The United States and the Berlin Blockade, 1948–1949 (1983), and several revealing essays on modern Middle Eastern historical issues in academic journals.
Budapest, The Berlin Wall, and Iran: What Obama Does Not Grasp
November 08, 2009
It is just about 30 years since the wall around Iran went up. And it is a few days away from fully 20 years since the Berlin Wall came down. The Berliner Mauer had been up for more than a quarter century, and its surface facing east, grim gray, was a metaphor for life in the German Democratic Republic. On its western face graffiti evoked the freer spirit of the half-city whose heart had nonetheless been broken by the Soviet goose step that divided it. And the Cold War was won on the very day the authorities of the D.D.R.
No Fears About Our Allies In Afghanistan. The Fear is About Ourselves
October 25, 2009
The defense ministers of our NATO allies met last week in Slovakia--a place where NATO power has much recent neighborly resonance--and among the gathering was also Robert Gates. His position on Afghanistan is not quite clear, poised as he is between his president and his men. Of course, Obama has more power.
White Man for the Job
April 23, 2007
Last month, a little-known British historian named Andrew Robert swas swept into the White House for a three-hour-long hug. He lunched with George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, huddled alone with the president in the Oval Office, and was rapturously lauded by him as"great." Roberts was so fawned over that his wife, Susan Gilchrist,told the London Observer, "I thought I had a crush on him, but it's nothing like the crush President Bush has on him." At first glance, this isn't surprising.
What The Realists Wrought
October 30, 2006
During these very days fifty years ago, history was being betrayed by the cool realists in Washington. But the history was being made in the streets of Budapest and on the sands near Suez. Let me begin with the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. Of the Warsaw Pact countries, Hungary may not have been the most brutalized. But it had a resilient population of pious Catholics, some socialists and a smattering of liberals. A goodly number of these Catholics had been sympathizers of the fascist regime of Admiral Horthy, which was independent of Nazi Germany until late in the war.

Best Visuals of 2013:
Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch (PS3)
Writeup by John Tucker
In my review of Ni no Kuni, I gave it a perfect 100 for its graphics. In 7 years with RPGFan, it's the only time I've given a perfect score in any category. But although there are items in other categories that one could complain about, I found absolutely no flaws with its visuals. Studio Ghibli's cutscenes are amazing, and the rest of the game manages to translate their style perfectly into a video game. The environments are varied, and the buildings in town look hand-painted. Even the minimap shows incredible attention to detail. Likewise, the animations are great and appropriate to the characters and what they're doing. I love the little touches like the way the main character's running animation changes when he runs up and down stairs. He doesn't just run up an invisible plane — he actually takes the stairs one at a time.
And aside from the game itself, there's The Wizard's Companion, an in-game book that the main character carries with him at all times. You access it through the menu, and it fills up over time with pages about the spells you have learned, background on the regions you've visited, descriptions of items, and for no reason other than the joy of having them, fairy tales. The writing's great, the illustrations are fantastic... I'm in awe. It's an amazing little artifact, and although the gameplay wouldn't have suffered the tiniest bit if it didn't exist, it adds another touch of heart to things because it's there.
Runner-up: Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (PC, PS3)
Writeup by Derek Heemsbergen
There are many wonderful things about Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, but it takes only a single glance to acknowledge how extraordinarily
Eorzea is. It's a gorgeous, intricately-designed world populated by attractive characters doing stylish things. Every class has a set (more than one, actually) of iconic Final Fantasy equipment, so players can adventure in the garb of their favorite classic characters. FFXIV actually "feels" like a next-gen title; incredible water and reflection effects, dazzling attack animations, detailed architecture, fantastic monster designs, and more make it not only the most beautiful MMORPG out there, but also one of the best-looking games ever. Period.

FIRST PIC: Bristol Palin Hits DWTS Rehearsals!
Bristol's ready to bust some moves!
Prepping for her Dancing with the Stars debut, Bristol Palin hit the dance studio for the first time with her pro partner Mark Ballas.
PHOTOS: Her love life revisited
Also spotted in the studio for the first time: Hills alum Audrina Patridge with partner Tony Dovolani.
"I just wanted to do it because it's so fun," single mother Palin, 19, told UsMagazine.com of her decision to participate in the show's eleventh season.
VIDEO: Bristol and her ex Levi in happier times
"It's positive and it's a good competition. I wanted to step outside my comfort zone and have a good time."
Her biggest fear, she admitted, will be "showing my personality and moving my hips!"
PHOTOS: Why Bristol and other celebs had bummer summers
The mother to Tripp, 19 months, said her costumes will "be the most conservative...that's how I want to dress. But it'll be good, all the rhinestones and spray tans, that will be fun."

Hi All
Anyone else on Sole Source Plus or does everyone just do Sole Source??
Started SS+ today and now i'm worrying i won't lose the weight as quickly as doing just SS?
Hi All
Anyone else on Sole Source Plus or does everyone just do Sole Source??
Started SS+ today and now i'm worrying i won't lose the weight as quickly as doing just SS?
Hi Petal
I see a lot of clients who do a mix of either SS or SS+ and the losses are very similar so panic not.
It is a great way to reduce your weight so well done and enjoy the ride to slimdom.
Hi, don't worry hun!! i did SS+ and lost a stack of weight - Good luck, you'll see the weight fall off!!
Can anybody tell me a little about SS+?
I'm in week 4 of SS+ and find it great.
I take 2 shakes and 1 bar a day plus a 200cal meal (green and white) which consists of:
one portion of:
120g chicken or turkey breast without skin
190g cod, haddock or other white fish
250g steamed tofu or 200g quorn
180g tuna in water
225g cottage cheese (reduced fat)
and one portion (approx. 2 tablespoons) of the following:
Green salad leaves
Celery, cucumber or red radishes
Courgettes or marrow
Broccoli, cauliflower or any cabbage, even pickled
Spinach, kale, turnip or taro tops
Asparagus, fennel or celeriac
Chinese leafy greens (pak choi or chinese cabbage)
I find that it's less restrictive, as I can eat a meal with OH in the evening as well as having a shake for desert! I usually have the bar (only one a day) at lunchtime, as it's handy to have in your bag - and no blender required!
Hope this helps!
IceMoose i tried to email you on your blog!
Great blog...x

I started SS+ 4 days ago and already my clothes feel loose and 2 tops that were really tight last week now fit. So on the SS+ plan the weight just drops off the same as it would on the SS plan.
hey, i started ss+ on sunday and am sticking with it till this sunday then moving back to ss..
think it gives us a kick start in weight loss aswel stick with it hun xx
I started ss+ on Wednesday, I may eventually go down to ss but I'll see how it goes?
hiya im new to this i was on ss but had to stop a few wks ago as i had a family tradgedy i found it quiete diffivult and was thinking of trying ss + insted this time round is it right that the weight loss is about the same as on the ss
What does 120g of chicken look like - are we talking a whole chicken breast or is it half/quarter?
I have a tiny tupperware box (0.25litre) which I fill full of chicken and that's 120g.
Generally I get a pack of chicken from somewhere which is 120/240g and then it's easy
Losses on SS+ I found were the same as SS.
Thanks Minz its all making more sense now! x
ive done ss+ from my second week and my losses have been ok
Hiya! I'm on SS+ and I think the diet is great! Your evening meal is something to look forward to and you're still able to sit and eat with the kids/hubby! Good luck! :-) x

Looks like I'm the first and only person who purchased this and giving comments. Well guys first of all the video is to much long it lasts more than an hour, what a waste! He could've get into details faster and end it up in 15-20 min. Whatever , the trick's method is the method you already know. The thing is , before I decided to buy this effect, I was trying to solve it and actually I did. But the reason I bought , because I was expecting sth different, sth original , but the method was exactly the same as I thought. At that point I was like "give me my money back". And I don't understand why Wayne Houchin congratulate him. ???
$30 for this trick is totally a waste totally much!!! if you are rich be my guest, buy it and you'll see what I mean. My suggestion is you to wait for a price drop.
Presentation : you might wanna be careful , handling needs some practice and experience in close-up. This is not a beginner trick.
" Sinful " is still the best and will still be the only "coin thru can trick" i'll be performing it. Catch my drift?!
Careful of this one... Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 9th, 2014
I do walk around work, this method has some angle issues that make it bad for walk around and/or large crowds. It's still a good method, but probably should have been closer to a $15 price point. Much of the DVD is wasted on the Mengel brothers backstory. I had a hard time understanding them at points, but watching multiple times cleared that right up. I've seen this effect elsewhere, just can't recall where a few years back, so the method definitely isn't new, this is just a different handling of it.
Wait for it to go on sale.

This is an amazing coin in soda can trick that will leave people stun. I watch the it so many times before I bought it to see if I could figure it out and I had no idea how it was done. I have two other soda can tricks witch are also great and this one could be a follow up of the coin in the close soda can where you pour out the soda and the coin is inside. I order this on a download because I did not want to wait for the dvd and I wanted to learn it quick. The only regret that I have is that the beginning of this video Johannes Mengel goes into unnecessary background that is boring and has nothing to do with the the trick. Besides that,the trick is great and his explanations and details are very good. The price is a bit to high but buy it and you will be amazed how simple and strong this trick is.
never again buying bottles Report this review

Well, i can understand the bad reviews... most (young) people want a quick fix, consume and move to the next best thing on earth...
If you dont want to hear about their (sympathic) backround, just skip to the explanation section. I enjoyed the little story because it shows passion for our art. A lot of thoughts went obviously into this project. (for example the last section with commented performances and hints on improvements!).
The angles are really good if you know about and care about them, nothing to worry about. If you have a mirror at home you are ready to go.
The signed coin is signed if you just see it from your spectators point of view! That is the way magic works and it ever was..
The best version is number two! Just a little hint: "borrow" the pen ;)
The mechanics are simple and the clean up (2 of 3 versions which are described) really made me smile. Just go out and perform it in the right moment and iam sure nobody will question the impact it has on spectators.
As for the price... what is right, what is wrong?! As for W.H. sinful: it should have sold for a much higher price to maybe avoid the stupid youtube kids.
If you are not able to appreciate passion, love and positive energy leading to a pure and bold effect.. simply move on! :) The demo does not lie at all, you can just perform it that way.
This is AWESOME! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 9th, 2014
This effect is fantastic.
I always LOVED Wayne Houchin's effect sinful, and personally i think this takes it to the next level.
everything that the ad copy states is 100% true and i personally think it is more practical than sinful from a performing situation perspective, in terms of method it is just as practical.
a perfect mix of both audio and visual along with a nearly sleight free handling that makes this look so perfect, fair and clean.
Best coin trick I've ever done. Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 14th, 2014
Now while I do believe that Breakthrough is a bit (just a bit) overpriced, It's a very easy to learn trick and very impromptu. Like myself, most of you will probably be a bit surprised on how exactly Breakthrough works. I'm sure many of you (again like myself) think you pretty much have the trick figured but I can assure you that their's a high possibility that you really don't.
Breakthrough is very unique, Requires small skills and knowledge of sleight of hand, if you happen to have Sinful as well it can be done right after doing that trick, and it can be done anywhere, surrounded or not.
Also, the video is 2 hours. I suggest watching the whole thing and practicing afterwards (that's what I did and soon as I finished watching I was able to do it perfect at first try on my mom and got a priceless reaction). Though it seems a bit long it's very entertaining and funny so regardless you lose track of time.
I recommend Breakthrough to anyone who's on any level of magic whether it's beginner, intermediate, or advanced. Bottom line, very great trick, simple to learn, and has already been added to my repertoire.

A little bit pricey and long winded explanation but all in all a great effect. Yes angles need to be addressed but good explanation to overcome this. If your worried about angles try showing a couple of friends then gradually show to more people. I use this quite often as it's a great impromptu effect.
Love it! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 17th, 2014
To me this tricks fits perfectly when I'm out with friends or socialising at the bar and so on. It ticks all the boxes for what I'm looking for in a trick: It's impromptu (or at least it has that impromptu feeling), it's not that difficult, angles are good, the clean up is easy and it got that organic feel I think we magicians always struggle to find. The ad for this trick may perhaps be a little bit off to how this trick really is done, but I'm okay with that since it's one of those trick you can do on the spot and it's easy to get in to and easy to get out of.
Some reviews says that's it easy for spectator to figure out, but after been doing this a dozen of times already, I'll at least have to deny that for myself – no one has a clue of anything and the reactions are overall great.
Since the can is open in this trick, I don't want to compare it to Sinful by Wayne Houchin. But to me that's great since I now have to variations of the same trick. In certain situations I can do Sinful and in other I can do Breakthrough.
The explanations are thoroughly and clear. You'll teach everything you need to know, and some variations. As for the length of the video, I think it could've been a little bit shorter, but again, they leave no stone unturned.
This has already gone in to my casual reportoire for when I'm at parties with friends or in any situation where people drink soda or beer from can. Excellent stuff! Highly recommend!
Nothing Left Out Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on July 14th, 2014
I perform another can penetration effect but more complicated. This one is very organic and simple. In fact even if not performed perfectly there are subtleties that convince the spectator of a miracle.
They used moves that are not actually new, but together are perfect.
The DVD was a bit long but worth it in the end. Interesting story. Johannes leaves NOTHING out. It covers so many of the ins, outs, nuances and possible variations that if you can not perform it, it not because of the instructions. He puts alot of work into it.
I gave it a 4 instead of a 5 as I thought as an Instant Download cost of 29.99 is actually a bit high as I do not get a physical DVD (adds to cost).

The surreal adventures of these friends are a free-flowing, four-part "multi-sensual symphony," bereft of traditional story line.

Oxnard School District "Principal for the Day" "Local Businesses Connect with Education"
Thursday, March 21, 2013
Oxnard School District Superintendent, Jeff Chancer welcomed and thanked everyone for participating in the "Principal for a Day" event. He provided a brief explanation of the event which is to give the community an idea of what it really takes to run a school. Mr. Chancer requested that each School Principal introduce themselves and then introduce their "Principal for a Day" and that each Principal for a Day share their experience. Here are their stories.
Curren School
Kelly Castillo introduced Linda Murguia with California Strawberry Festival: "I was amazed that all of the classrooms had smart boards, which is really nice. It was a pleasure to come back to the district and see what is going on."
Brekke School:
Jodi Nocero introduced Ginny Whitt, PAC representative for Soria School: "I work at a school site and was very excited to be able to sit in on an IEP with the permission of the parents and to see the progress that the students have made, was amazing."
Sierra Linda School
Sally Wennes introduced Xerox Ambassador to Education, Peter Godinez: "We had a lot to celebrate as there were four award assemblies. Ms. Wennes is doing an incredible job and everyone should go back to the schools and learn some of the basics. Sally is a great leader and an advocate for education. I have participated in several Principal For a Day activities with Jeff Chancer including when he was at Ventura Unified." Mr. Godinez shared that previously he did an interview with seven superintendents and Jeff was one of them that nailed the topic of key elements in Ventura County education. It is there for all the see on the VCOE Webpage.
Elm School:
Rossana Padilla introduced Christine Edelman with Mainline Information Systems: "Thank you, I had a great day, I am fairly new to the Oxnard community. Today I got to see what happens in an elementary school, it is amazing to see all that goes on, interacting with the students, parents and reaching out to the community, the principal has to be a Jack-of-All-Trades. Elementary school is critical to all of the kids to succeed in the future; you forget just how much the students are surrounded by caring people.
Haydock School
Amelia Sugden introduced Will Berg with the Port of Hueneme: "It was good to
visit and reinforce what goes on at Haydock. Being someone who attended
Haydock, I was able reconnect with the neighborhood and walk around. We
visited five classrooms including an opportunity classroom which is a last chance for the students and they were engaged, working in the classroom setting. I also
got to visit some Science classes and engage in discussion with the students about vegetables and automobiles."
Marina West School
Anna Thomas introduced Tim Laubacher with DCH Lexus of Oxnard: "This was an eye-opening experience, my children attended Marina West School and my wife and I volunteered in the classrooms 20 years ago. It was a good feeling to provide the morning speech to the students and staff. Everyone, the staff, the students were very nice, we walked the campus, and I read to 6th grade students. Anna did an excellent job, we disciplined a young child and followed an Oxnard Police Officer who was teaching students the lock down procedures, and they did an excellent job. I respect what you guys do. Education is so very important and as an adult to this day, I can still remember the names of most of my elementary teachers."
Lemonwood School
Ramona Villavicencio introduced Carmen Ramirez, Oxnard City Mayor Pro Tem: "Last year I was at Elm, it is great experience. Having the opportunity to visit a School like Lemonwood is very similar to the elementary school I attended. I also remember the names of my teachers and the impression they left on me. I spoke with students, staff, and office workers and there seemed to be a lot of love for what they do and the future of the students. I visited several classrooms, participated in the cafeteria Fresh Good Food Program and the disciplining of a student. The community must take responsibility in the future of these students; our City Leaders and staff need to have a better relationship with our schools, these students are the future."
McKinna School
Anne Jenks introduced Dr. Karen Hill Scott: "I am so full, thanks for the
lunch and the opportunity, I met a wonderful principal, I cried in her office
as she told me the story of McKinna School, I was so touched. As a parent of three children I wish they could have the experience that is happening at McKinna. We visited classrooms and I was amazed of the presence of adults; there is so much care it is unbelievable. Lots of students receiving awards, the children were so orderly and in control. Sometimes you see teachers or principals running around crazy. But here the children were very calm as they stopped to talk to Ms. Anne Jenks. Your heart is so big and you go overboard. What happens now is for the future, I thank God for the opportunity."
Marshall School
Kimberly Rock, Administrator-In-Charge introduced Sue Odgers with Oxnard Education Foundation: "I am a product of the Oxnard School District this was a big lesson, I did not have a big day probably because the 6th graders were not on campus. I attended an H20 assembly done by the City of Oxnard Water Division which is free to the district and was a great assembly and good for everyone. I had a wonderful day and commend the staff for being so up.
Ramona School
Mary Arias introduced Steve Dato with Ventura Axxess: "We are a fundraising business out of Ventura. There were assemblies and Mrs. Arias did everything in English and Spanish and switched languages depending on whom she was speaking to. She says she loves her job and it shows. There were several discipline cases; it was a most memorable day. The preparation done for me
before I arrived and upon my arrival was great. This is my fifth time participating in this event between Ventura and here."
Chavez School
Jairo Arellano introduced Patrick Mullin with Oxnard Ambassadors: "I was delighted to be assigned to Chavez School. Coming from a hotel background, I appreciated the cleanliness of the school and what an opportunity for the students to attend every day. There was training for parents and two Earthquake Drills which included new guidelines. It is important to have parent participation which was evident at Chavez School. It was a great experience for my first year."
Harrington School
Debra Cordes introduced Michelle Mercado with Ventura Axxess: "I had a great time it was a wonderful opportunity. Everyone was so welcoming, extremely kid friendly, toured different classrooms and observed the different style of teaching; and visited the garden. I asked a little boy if he liked school, and his response was I don't always like school but I like the education I am receiving. They greeted me with a plant, coffee; what a wonderful experience."
McAuliffe School
Peter Chapa, Interim School Principal introduced John Clay Jr. with Crowell Weedon: "I was very excited to see Mona here today as the permanent Principal at Lemonwood, as last year I visited Lemonwood where she was the interim Principal. My experience was that the children had respect for everyone, and everyone shook my hand and greeted me. We visited classrooms and in one of the classrooms, the kids were very concerned that I do the same thing they were doing and made sure I had a ruler, I was terrified. Teachers were great, and Mr. Chapa is doing a fantastic job for being at the school for only four days. I read in two classrooms." He thanked Mr. Chancer for the opportunity and stated that Assistant Principal Mrs. Fox is doing a great job.
Ritchen School
Bill Belcher with Oxnard Rotary introduced himself and stated that Wayne Saddler was substitute principal because the principal was ill and that Mr. Saddler was unable to accompany him to the luncheon because he was taking care of discipline cases. "Mr. Saddler has a habit of standing outside of the school every morning and greeting everyone as they arrive to school, we visited every classroom and the technology is incredible; was a wonderful experience."
Soria School
Ana DeGenna introduced Robin Turner with Keller Williams Realty: "I want to thank Jeff for the opportunity to show us what we are doing; sometimes our kids get a bad rap out there. I was on the committee for the Soria School before it was completed so it was great to be able to visit the site in this capacity. The staff had a breakfast gathering for teachers that will be going on maternity leave; we toured the entire school, very beautiful. We visited classrooms, observing the progress and the use of lots of technology, and visited the Dual Language Classrooms. I was impressed with the interaction the Principal has with the students and the teachers. Teachers really enjoy working at Soria, everyone was very happy, very positive environment. The saying it takes a village is very evident at Soria. A lot of us are not aware of what goes on at the schools on a day to day basis, this was very enlightening."
Driffill School
Carol Flores-Beck introduced City Interim Manager Karen Burnham: "My day started with a big banner, flowers, I had a wonderful time. Robin mentioned the village, I saw the village at Driffill School in all of the staff, and everyone's focus is on the kids. It is easy to criticize, everyone who participated in this program today needs to be an ambassadors for our schools. I participated in kindergarten and first grade assessments did a lot of walking, it is amazing and it was my pleasure and honor to shadow the principal to see what it takes to mould the students."
Kamala School
Christine McDaniels introduced Robert Foster with Oxnard Rotary: "It was interesting Jeff kept encouraging me to participate in this event and I being a retired employee of the district did not see the value, but decided to check it out. It was very interesting everyone in the district office has no idea what goes on at the schools. I read books to students that were hard, we visited classrooms and spent a large part of the morning with one first grade student. The degree of positivity among the students was impressive."
Rose Avenue School
Shannon Coletti introduced John Clay Sr.: He congratulated Shannon on her doctorate degree. "The campus was clean, we visited two first grade classrooms, and I met with attendance people who informed me that the information went directly to Sacramento. There were three award assemblies and the Principal had control of hundreds of students, we handed out awards that seemed like forever, but the students were very pleased. There was some discipline cases and one had to do with graffiti which the student confessed to before the Police arrived. The other discipline case was a student who brought a butter knife to school by mistake. I am a stock broker and I thought we had a busy schedule I wouldn't change jobs with her."
In conclusion Jeff stated, that on behalf of the Board, Assistant Superintendents and staff he thanked the Principals of our Schools and the participants of Principal For a Day 2013, indicating that we need to continue to build strong partnerships with our community and the district needs their assistance. "Our obligation is to pay it forward in our community."

Until now, little was known about Larrabee other than it was going to feature multiple x86 cores. However, Intel is finally giving us some more details on the graphics processing architecture it hopes to debut within the next two years.
According to the company, Larrabee is expected to take advantage of an array of IA cores scalable to teraflops of processing power, a new set of vector processing instructions to speed up the performance of graphics applications, and should be compatible with existing industry APIs such as DirectX and OpenGL. In addition, the chip will reportedly feature a new cache architecture – although no details of this have been specified yet. The company is expected to demo Larrabee later this year with a launch sometime in 2009 or beyond.

Business: Trio launch Mpower Wellbeing Services to improve health in Staffordshire workplaces
Posted: April 02, 2014|
THREE businesswomen have joined forces to help employers reduce absence costs and improve workplace health and wellbeing.
Mpower Wellbeing Services has been established to support businesses of all sizes, across a wide range of sectors.
It is led by Melaney Doyle, Kate Young and Jane Lloyd, who come from human resources backgrounds in the private and public sector.
The Staffordshire women have experience in coaching, training and business mentoring, and through Mpower Wellbeing Services they offer a wide range of services from occupational health advice to access to health practitioners such as chiropractic and holistic therapists.
Director Melaney Doyle said: "Our mission is to improve corporate health and employee wellbeing by offering a flexible range of accessible services.
"Larger employers, like councils, often have access to health services including occupational health programmes, but we want to extend the accessibility of services to all organisations, particularly those where staff are working in stressful roles like care homes.
"We provide a one stop shop for all organisations' health and wellness needs. We believe that investing in a health and wellness strategy can reduce absence and stress, improve performance and promote engagement."
Latest Government figures show:
As many as 960,000 employees were on sick leave for a month or more each year on average between October 2010 and September 2013;
More than 130 million days are still being lost to sickness absence every year in Great Britain, and working-age ill health costs the national economy £100 billion a year;
Employers face a yearly bill of around £9 billion for sick pay and associated costs, with individuals missing out on £4 billion a year in lost earnings;
Around 300,000 people a year fall out of work and into the welfare system because of health-related issues;
taxpayers fund around £13 billion a year on health-related sickness benefits and £2 billion a year in healthcare, sick pay reimbursement (PTS) and other taxes.
Mpower Wellbeing Services aims to set up and then train managers to use its policies and procedures.
Tailor-made employee assistance programmes can also be provided.
As well as working with companies, Mpower Wellbeing Service accepts self-referrals from individuals.

Deutsche Bank today announced the results of a survey which examines the expanding role of hedge funds within the wider asset management industry. From Alternatives to Mainstream analyses how hedge funds have evolved to run non-traditional products such as long-only and liquid alternative strategies to meet new demand from institutional investors.
Institutional investors are moving away from traditional asset allocation in favour of a risk-based approach, incorporating hedge funds into their core portfolio rather than as a separate alternatives allocation. This removes constraints on allocations to alternatives, and investors are now choosing to work with trusted hedge funds on new products such as liquid alternatives and long only strategies.
Key findings of the study, which surveyed both investors and managers, include:
Daniel Caplan, European Head of Global Prime Finance at Deutsche Bank, said: "This study highlights the expanding relationship between institutional investors and the hedge fund managers that have built trusted partnerships and a reputation for delivering strong risk adjusted returns."
Anita Nemes, Global Head of Capital Introduction at Deutsche Bank, said: "An ever increasing number of hedge fund managers are diversifying their product range as they seek to provide differentiated solutions to institutional investors."
The study received responses from 200 investor entities worldwide managing more than $625bn in hedge fund assets and 60 global hedge fund managers representing $528bn in firm wide assets.

Fidap is a finite elements 3-D transient thermal fluids program that can be used to solve a variety of heat transfer problems. The program can solve conduction, radiation and convection problems simultaneously. It has a good preprocessor (much better than older versions of the code) and powerful postprocessor capabilities to represent velocity, temperature and pressure fields.
The installation of FIDAP 7.6 on atom (the Origin 2000) has made
our original code execute much faster compared with other platforms in
the past. The code has being used in the past to simulate heat
transfer in a variety of configurations relevant to the high level
nuclear waste repository. Currently, research work is being conducted
using FIDAP to simulate heat transfer and fluid flow in attics and
will be used to simulate indoor airflow and contaminant concentration
diffusion in residential spaces. Future research will make use of this
code to address additional flow issues for the Yucca Mountain Project.

• WCHA Release
MADISON, Wis. – Freshman goaltender Alex Rigsby (Delafield, Wis.) has been named the Western Collegiate Hockey Association Rookie of the Week for Feb. 2 after making 50 saves in the Badgers' undefeated weekend against then-No. 4 Minnesota last weekend.
Rigsby made 23 saves in Friday's 2-2 overtime tie before stopping one Minnesota attempt to help give UW the 3-1 shootout win. She then made 27 saves en route to her 17th win of the season in Saturday's 3-1 victory. With the 1-0-1-1 weekend, Rigsby is now unbeaten in her last 11 games.
Rigsby's .900 winning percentage leads the WCHA and ranks fourth in the nation. She is the league's top freshman goaltender with a 1.95 goals against average and ranks fifth among the nation's freshmen goaltenders (overall, fourth in the WCHA and 16th in the country).
Rigsby also leads WCHA rookie goaltenders with a .917 saves percentage and is fifth among the nation's freshmen netminders (overall, sixth in the WCHA and 27th in the nation).
This week's award marks the Delafield, Wis., native's third WCHA weekly honor of the season. Rigsby was named the WCHA Rookie of the Week on Dec. 1 after posting the two highest single-game save totals of her career to backstop Wisconsin to a series split with then-No. 4 Minnesota Duluth (Nov. 26-28).
She also picked up WCHA Defensive Player of the Week honors on Dec. 15 after making 22 saves to earn her third career shutout in Wisconsin's 5-0 win over St. Cloud State (Dec. 10).
In other WCHA awards this week, Ohio State forward Natalie Spooner is the WCHA Offensive Player of the Week, and Minnesota Duluth defenseman Laura Fridfinnson is the WCHA Defensive Player of the Week.
No. 1 Wisconsin (24-2-2, 18-2-2-2 WCHA) hits the road for a series at Bemidji State (12-11-3, 10-9-3-2 WCHA) this weekend. Puck drop is set for 6 p.m. Friday and 4 p.m. Saturday at the Bemidji Regional Events Center.

Instead of having to fight a rearguard action and defending its directors, boards appear to be moving pre-emptively to improve their attractiveness to investors.
As reported in Friday's "new-look" National Business Review, activist institutions wielding lists of blacklisted directors are prompting nervous companies to clear their decks before attempting capital raisings.
A flurry of board changes at Snakk Media, which plans to seek a compliance listing on the NZX alternative market, have all the hallmarks of this, as it cuts ties with directors and shareholders associated with controversial company SeaDragon, a major Snakk shareholder.
Maybe the resignation of Mighty River Power director Jon Hartley, who will step down later this month, is the start of a similar process at the state-owned enterprise, which is first on the block for partial sale in the government's stuttering mixed ownership model.
Mr Hartley is a former chief executive of Brierley Investments, who left in 1999 after the rationalisation of the group's New Zealand's assets. He jumped ship to loss-making state-owned enterprise Solid Energy and left shortly after, following a strategic review.
He went on to chair Sky City Entertainment Group, now SkyCity, and joined Pacific Road Corporate Finance as a director.
He is currently a director of ASB Bank, Chorus and Sovereign Assurance Company.
High regard
There's no suggestion Mr Hartley is on any directors' blacklist.
He says he has commitments with World Vision International and its micro-finance subsidiary, VisionFund International, of which he is vice-chairman.
Mighty River chairwoman Joan Withers says Mr Hartley is held in high regard by the board and the company, and has gained from his experience and contribution over his three years at the board table.
Yet you can't help wondering about the timing – just a few months before an expected IPO.
As mentioned in the NBR print edition, Mighty River directors Ms Withers and Trevor Janes once sat on the boards of failed carpet-maker Feltex and finance company Capital + Merchant, respectively.
One wonders if they might be checking their busy schedules over the coming months.
One veteran Auckland businessman tells NBR ONLINE Ms Withers and Mr Janes are both "very solid" but Mighty River will be moving before any IPO to deal with any perceived board weakness.
Some years ago, Chris Swasbrook, a member of the NZX's prospectus watchdog committee, called for directors who served on the boards of collapsed finance companies to be banned from the boards of listed companies.
NBR ONLINE attempted to contact Mr Hartley but he is travelling in Myanmar.

Na'ama's Fattoush
- scant 1 cup / 200 g Greek yogurt and 3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp / 200 ml whole milk, or 1 2/3 cups / 400 ml buttermilk (replacing both yogurt and milk)
- 2 large stale Turkish flatbread or naan (9 oz /250 g in total)
- 3 large tomatoes (13 oz / 380 g in total), cut into 2/3-inch / 1.5cm dice
- 3 1/2 oz / 100 g radishes, thinly sliced
- 3 Lebanese or mini cucumbers (9 oz / 250 g in total), peeled and chopped into 2/3-inch / 1.5cm dice
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1/2 oz / 15 g fresh mint
- scant 1 oz / 25 g flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped
- 1 tbsp dried mint
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 3 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 cup / 60 ml olive oil, plus extra to drizzle
- 2 tbsp cider or white wine vinegar
- 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sumac or more to taste, to garnish
If using yogurt and milk, start at least 3 hours and up to a day in advance by placing both in a bowl. Whisk well and leave in a cool place or in the fridge until bubbles form on the surface. What you get is a kind of homemade buttermilk, but less sour.
Tear the bread into bite-size pieces and place in a large mixing bowl. Add your fermented yogurt mixture or commercial buttermilk, followed by the rest of the ingredients, mix well, and leave for 10 minutes for all the flavors to combine.
Spoon the fattoush into serving bowls, drizzle with some olive oil, and garnish generously with sumac.

hi folks,
I installed centos 5.1. Now i need to install the following perl modules CGI::Carp, Config, Cwd, Data::Dumber.
Someone told me there is a way to install it using yum. When i search in yum it doesnt find some of the modules. I can find the packages in the CPAN, but i heard it's better to install using yum.
do i have to add additional repos for that or is there someting like a who is who from cpan to yum?
the reason for this perl modules is, i want to install twiki.
