4:36 a.m. - Best Buy parking lot in Vero Beach filling up with second smaller wave of shoppers.
4:12 a.m. - Lines already forming for the 5 a.m. openings of Home Depot and Office Depot in Vero Beach. Twenty five in line at Office Depot and 10 at Home Depot.
2 a.m. - Shoppers are starting to turn from stores with earlier openings to retailers opting to let customers in at more traditional Black Friday hours.
Whereas lines are dissipating at Target, WalMart and Best Buy, shops like Office Depot, Michael's and Bed Bath & Beyond are seeing an influx of customers patiently waiting for those stores to open. The Indian River Mall remains packed, though individual stores have reasonable lines.
The staggered openings have allowed shoppers to try to get the top deals at multiple places.
1:52 a.m. - I just chatted with a lady who said the Indian River Mall was very organized, with no pushing or shoving.
1:51 a.m. - Nick Feld of Sebastian, also arrived at Vero Beach's Best Buy at 4 p.m. "I do it every year." Regarding the earlier hours, he said, "It's better than before. It used to be at 5 a.m. I got done eating around 3 p.m., rushed over here and got here at 4 p.m."
1:47 a.m. - James Brigss of Sebastian, who arrived at Vero Beach's Best Buy at 4 p.m. Thursday, had this to say about his Black Friday experience, "Next time, I've got to bring a campfire."
1:45 a.m. - Indian River Mall, which opened at midnight, was still packed, but individual stores had reasonable lines.
1:23 a.m. - Jonna Streeter of Vero Beach has gone shopping on Black Friday for more than a decade. By midnight, she'd already been at several stores, trying to get a TV. She got one at Target when someone returned it. "I don't like the Thanksgiving (hours). That killed it for me, but I still came and did it."
1:15 a.m. - I'm sure I've ever seen the Indian River Mall this busy before.
1:06 a.m. - The Indian River Mall food court looks as if it were a typical Saturday afternoon.
12:50 p.m. - There's still a line at the Vero Beach Best Buy that goes back to Bed Bath and Beyond. Heading to the Indian River Mall next.
12:30 p.m. - The lines are pretty clear at Target now. Saw the best deal of the night.
12:28 p.m. - People are starting to line up at Office Depot, which oepns at 5 a.m.
12:12 p.m. - Best Buy in Vero Beach is now open and slowly filling up. People are getting warm.

11:46 p.m. - Seth Shapiro and his wife, Chrissy, of Vero Beach, "divided and conquered during Black Friday shopping Thursday night. "We do this every year and get things not just for Christmas but also later in the year. We went to Vero Beach outlets this year. We will be home by midnight sleeping soundly and be done for a year. We missed the Patriots game, that's about it. If the Dolphins were playing, I probably would have sent her out by herself."
11:45 p.m. - Surprisingly, the line hasn't gotten much longer at Vero Beach Best Buy. Still a few hundred, but Target's line is unmatched.
11:25 p.m. - The line is starting to build at Vero Beach Best Buy. Probably another 50 people in last 10 minutes.
11 p.m. - There are a few hundred in line at the Vero Beach Best Buy an hour before the store opens. The line goes to midway at Lowes.
10:56 p.m. - Heading back to Vero Beach's Best Buy. Lines are pretty short at the outlets.
10:55 p.m. - Just chatted with some poor guy who got dragged to the Coach Outlet by his girlfriend for his first time Black Friday shopping. Last time? Maybe.
9:54 p.m. - Modest lines and relatively full parking lot at Vero Fashion Outlets, but its seems pretty manageable
9:32 p.m. - Vero Beach's Best Buy line extends to Lowe's but is still well below what the line for Target was.
9:30 p.m. - Dex Purcell just walked out of Target with a 32-inch TV. His brother is first in line at Best Buy.
9:29 p.m. - If I can get out of Target, I'm checking out the line at Best Buy, getting coffee and then going to the #VeroBeach outlets.
9:27 p.m. - Summer Pamelee of Fort Pierce stopped in at the WalMart in Vero Beach before going to Target for miscellaneous stuff. She said she's done Black Friday shopping for the past 12 years but doesn't like the earlier hours. "I think it takes a lot from Thanksgiving, and Black Friday is not supposed to be started until Friday."
8:57 p.m. - Just talked with someone about midway through the Vero Beach Target line who said he arrived about 20 minutes ago. The line formed fast.
8:53 p.m. - The line at Vero Beach's Target goes all the way back behind Bealls.
8:33 p.m. - It's pretty easy to move around the Vero Beach KMart, but the layaway line is long.
8:22 p.m. - Travis Inman of Vero Beach came to the KMart in Vero Beach twice. He missed the early doorbusters, but came back at 2 p.m. He was fifth in line and got a 50-inch TV for less than $300. "Save money, man, the way the economy is, money's tight."
8:14 p.m. - Joe Henderson of Vero Beach said the early Black Friday hours "aren't bad. It makes it easier on a lot of people. Nobody wants to come at 4 a.m. We got here at 5 p.m." He said he was searching for diamond earrings at Sears. "For a third of the price, it can't be beat."
8:11 p.m. - Parking lot at Vero Beach KMart is full.
7:53 p.m. - Starting to hear some grumbling about the cold, but this is nothing like waiting outside in Ohio at 3 a.m.

7:49 p.m. - Line at the Vero Beach KMart are wrapping around the building.
7:43 p.m. - "(I went) last year, but I was just going with my girlfriend," said Ismael Hau of Vero Beach. "Most of my shopping is already done online. You can find most of the deals online as well and there's free shipping." He said he plans to be out another 2-3 hours, saying he does need to be at work Friday morning.
7:35 p.m. - From AshleydaB: "I wait in line on Black Friday for over an hour at WalMart for an XBox game and still Santa gets all the glory.
7:34 p.m. - Joe Henderson had an easy time getting Ismael Hau to come Black Friday shopping with him. "He wants to be my son-in-law," Joe said.
7:30 p.m. - Sears handed out papers for the first bunch in line to get the 50-inch TVs. Everyone else left.

7:10 p.m. - One man shopping with his family said he wouldn't have come if the stores had opened at midnight.

6:55 p.m. - Sears in Vero Beach has multiple entrances. 150 people stand outside one entrance but only two are lined up in front of another. Not sure that will work.

Here, there be monsters
|The trouble with monsters is that they're so damn reassuring. The stories are scary in parts, but afterwards you know you are okay because you can look around and see that there are no monsters in your immediate vicinity. You are not a monster. I am not a monster. Those people over there do not look like monsters. So we're all safe; we're okay.
Certainly more should be done about monsters. Oh yes. Because sometimes when you are walking home alone late at night you worry that there may be a stray monster hiding behind the bus-stop, ready to pounce on you. You hear stories. But afterwards, when you get home, you lock the door behind you and you know you are safe.
As monsters go, Cho Seung-hui is particularly reassuring. Ethnicity helps, alas; even here in the UK, we had the headline "Shooter was Korean". Translates as he was other, a foreigner, he looked different from most of us. But the best and most important message is that he had been referred to counselling. I'm sure there'll be a more scary-sounding post-mortem psychiatric diagnoses to follow, something more complex and with more syllables than depression. Then there had been complaints about his harassing women students.
So in summary, he is different from most of us in terms of race and disability and the motive was probably immense sexual frustration. As the days and weeks go on he will be presented as more and more other, one way or another. Eventually it will get to a stage where it seems ridiculous that anyone could not have seen this disaster coming. And everyone will feel much better.
Now, I'll tell you a different kind of horror story.
I felt as most other people felt when I read about the shootings in Virginia. However, by Tuesday the media coverage here was becoming irritating to me; the analysis of nothing, the endless speculation about this or that, the voyeuristic dissection of events and characters. And I thought, my country is involved in an unofficial civil war one and a half thousand miles closer to home. Tomorrow they'll be more bombings in Iraq; innocent people, just like these college students, people just as bright and bubbly and earnest and loving, will be have their lives snatched away whilst going about their daily business. But that will make for just a tiny wee headline.
The next day, over two hundred people were murdered on the streets of Baghdad.
No monsters. No profiles. No corpses reclining on the couches they couldn't be coaxed onto in life. No names and photographs even. But ordinary people, faced with circumstances they considered intolerable, consumed with emotions they found overwhelming, chosing to commit evil. Not a good story. Not just because it's more predictable and not just because it is perhaps easier for some people to sympathise with people who are the same colour and speak the same language as us. But because there is at all nothing reassuring about it.
There is nothing reassuring about the fact that most evil in the world – including our world, not just the war zones - is perpetrated by ordinary people. No, I will rephrase that. All of the evil in the world, including our world, is perpetrated by ordinary people. A tiny minority of those ordinary people, who made extraordinarily bad choices, have mental health labels and even fewer have one of those labels are what is officially described as a serious mental illness.
Cho Seung-hui was not a monster. If we pretend he was, we feel better but we learn nothing. If we pretend he did what he did because he was ill, we feel better but we learn nothing. He didn't snap, he hadn't become completely unstuck from reality; the guy planned this. And nobody saw it coming; people around him will be berating themselves for some time to come about any signs they might have picked up on, but there weren't any above an beyond the angst and morbidity that many young men and women go through. There wasn't nearly enough to suspect he was so very dangerous.
But the most important and frightening thing about the man's psychology is that his own determination to gain infamy in death - which was what this was all about - completely overrided any consideration for the innocent lives he was going to take. He didn't care about those people at all, he thought himself and his vanity so very much more important. And he actively chose to commit a great evil.
Now that has little to do with an illness.
Some Americans who blogged about their own news story: Blue guesting at Avast!, Yanub and FlawedPlan have written about the mental health blaming exercise, Marymurtz is also turning off the media coverage and Midlife & Treachery is positive about campus life.
And a timely reminder, an article by the great Prof. Phil Zimbardo.

Kotaku is reporting that they've stumbled across a major bug in Hearthfire, the new expansion in Skyrim. It can essentially completely lock you out of parts of your house.
Fortunately, it's also easily avoided.
The bug kicks in whenever you try to start work on two projects in the same wing simultaneously. The game seems unable to handle more than one task at a time during home construction. At best, you'll lose progress and at worst the bug will make it impossible to enter certain rooms.
If you simply complete rooms and projects one at a time, you won't have to worry about the bug. We're sure Bethesda will be able to have an update that solves the problem shortly.
Our Take: Part of us wondering if this is really a bug, or if Bethesda just enjoys messing with us.
It may sound fairly minor as these things go but if you've been building a house in Hearthfire, this bug is actually pretty scary. The materials gathering process to build everything takes a long time, and you have to go through a lot of specific steps to get as far as adding wings to your house. Losing that progress probably made a bunch of Dragonborn cringe in fear.
So, heads up: Be methodical, take your time, and maybe wait on building the kids rooms until you know they're not going to be trapped in there and starve to death.

JSR 94: JavaTM Rule Engine API - Final
Finally... JSR 94 got to the final stage.
This was the first JSR I had a chance to participate and I can tell you that it was a lot of work.
On the one hand, you have great discussions around the technology itself and trying to figure out some of the best ways of doing certain things. You also get to work with very smart people who have different perspectives which helps open your horizons. All of this is cool. On the other hand though... you have to deal with the legal stuff like distribution licenses, export controls, and achieve compromises in order to move things forward to a final state. Overall everybody in JSR 94 did a great job. Folks from IBM, Ilog, Blaze, Sun, and others were very involved.
Lesson learned - It helps to have a second or third person assisting in running things, especially if it is a large JSR with lots of participants. A good example on how to handle/guide things is what I have seen with JSR 170. David and his team from DAY are doing a great job managing the process and keep track of things. They have 2-3 guys devoted to the effort which really helps. I am very impressed with their discipline and dedication.
For those interested in rules and rules applications, the next round of JSR 94 is going to start soon. Check back on the JSR 94 page for contact information if you are interested.

Observing without Evaluating
The first principle of NVC entails the separation of observation from evaluation. When we combine observation with evaluation, others will hear criticism and resist what we are saying. It is what happens when we use words like 'always' or 'never', intended to exaggerate our observation of what somebody else has done. How do you react when you hear something like 'you are always late'?
Observations must be specific to time and context. Instead of saying 'you are always late', we can say: 'you were late the last three times to our meetings'.

(WASHINGTON) -- In the course of the Senate's ordinary business, the chaplain is a somewhat anonymous figure. After delivering a prayer when the Senate convenes each day, he fades from the public view and into the background of the daily debate. But since the government shutdown began two weeks ago, business in the U.S. Senate has been anything but ordinary as have the prayers from Chaplain Barry Black.
"Deliver us from the hypocrisy of attempting to sound reasonable while being unreasonable," Black appealed in one of his recent morning prayers that have been doled out like daily scoldings to the deadlocked Congress.
Black sat down with ABC News to discuss the critical tone of his recent prayers, explaining that he sees it as his job "to be a gadfly of sorts" -- spurring his congregation of senators to action.
"I'm not judging and I'm not scolding, actually," Black said. "My responsibility as a pastor is to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable. I need to be a gadfly of sorts. ...I think that I should reflect the challenges of the environment that I'm working in."
And, he adds, his prayers are not only for the lawmakers' ears, but for God's.
"I also believe that my prayers make a difference because God answers prayers," Black said.
Despite the fact that Black is criticizing the congregation of senators whom he serves, he says he has received positive feedback.
"I've had senators say to me frequently, 'Keep the prayer pressure on'," Black said. "One senator come to me and said, 'Chaplain, I hope our lawmakers are listening, because I've been following your prayers very, very closely..and they are really making a difference in my reflections.'"
If you think the Senate isn't a very prayerful place, Black says think again: "You'd better believe it."
"I think there is something about the challenge of doing this job that strengthens your prayer life," he said. "People who are used to getting things done, former governors and mayors, find themselves in perpetual check. And that can be very exasperating and make you call on the transcendent."

What is the Swoop-Quest?
Hit the water and the mainstream
The Fantasy Swoop event is the most dynamic event of Skyquest. Skydivers will jump from an altitude of less than one mile (which is easily visible to the public), open their parachutes pretty quickly and then set up for a 40 - 60 MPH swoop landing, right in front of the crowd. The event requires competitors to actually make contact with the water on their swoop landing before they then control their high performance wings to a precision landing.
The Pond Swooping event promises to be one of the most attractive and exciting events of SkyQuest Florida. Two perfectly located and shaped ponds allow approaches according to the current wind direction at any time. The individual player competition will be held from a jump altitude of 5,000 feet over a total of four competition and four practice rounds.

Milk Carton Alert – What Happened To These Films… And Others? (Survey)
So, usually, when we do these milk carton alerts, they're usually for people – actors and directors mostly.
This time, I'm concentrating on films specifically.
There are a number of films by and/or about black people that we've talked about on this site over the last 10 months it's been in existence, that just seem to have disappeared. And by all that I mean, many of them were actually produced, but were never released, and we haven't heard anything about them since the early discussions of their making.
I'm talking about films like:
- The George Lucas-produced Tuskegee Airmen actioner titled Red Tails; first announced around 2005; went into production finally in 2009 – we saw on-set still photos and everything; then there was talk that Lucas wasn't happy with the footage he saw (Anthony Hemingway directed the film, John Ridley penned it), and Lucas planned to re-write the script and re-shoot several scenes. Of course, Lucas' people denied any of that was the case, suggesting that he was just shooting "pick-up" shots, not retooling the entire film. That was the last we heard about the film – several months ago. IMDB lists its release date as 2011, but no specific month or day is given, because it's not certain. I've reached out to LucasFilm for updates, but no replies yet. I won't hold my breath, although ya never know.
- Then there's the Eddie Murphy dramedy A Thousand Words, which co-stars Kerry Washington. Say it ain't so. I thought Eddie Murphy was money! Apparently not! As Sergio noted in our last post on the film, about a year ago, it was scheduled to be released in 2009, but thanks to some really terrible advance word-of-mouth, based on test screenings, it was pushed back to Jan. 27, 2011. Well, January 27th, 2011 was about 3 weeks ago, and certainly no film. So, really those who were present for the 2009 test screenings are the only folks who've seen the film – other than those who made it anyway. Anthony, who occasionally writes for the site, was one of those people, and, according to him, the film was "tough to sit through;" Re-shoots were reportedly planned, according to feedback from test audiences, but that was almost 2 years ago, and still nothing! Not even preview still images, clips, a trailer. Nothing at all! How bad could it really be? Even if it's a stink bomb, I'd still expect a DVD release. As I did with Red Tails, I've reached out to Dreamworks for updates, but no replies yet.
- And then there's the Jennifer Hudson/Terence Howard film based on the life of Winnie Mandela, titled Winnie. As many of you will probably recall, we debuted the trailer on this site late last year, and it quickly spread across the web, attracting nothing but derision and revulsion. It was almost universally ridiculed and panned, which led the South African production team to immediately pull it off the web. It was a little too late though. By then it had already been seen by tens of thousands of people, if not more. Our trailer alone, as a sample, was played just over 16,000 times! Nope, the filmmakers weren't too pleased with the reaction. As for whether all that excitement made them reconsider releasing the film is anyone's guess; or at least, maybe think about re-shooting some scenes, or re-cutting the film… or something. But nothing has been heard of the film since last falls debacle. No specific release date is listed either. And no response from the film's reps.
And I'm sure there are more titles that I just can't think of at the moment… but that's where YOU come in! I'd like to solve the mysteries of all those already-produced but seemingly dead projects solved. But I can't do that if I don't know what they all are.
I'm already on the case for the above 3, although, if you have any info about any of them, please enlighten us. Frankly, of the 3, I'm most curious about Red Tails. I haven't liked most of Eddie Murphy's most recent films, and I don't anticipate I'll care for A Thousand Words either. And the Winnie trailer looked so awful that what little enthusiasm I had for it was quickly quelled.
Anywho… if there are any other films that should be on this Milk Carton alert list, drop them in the comments section below; and if you have info on any of these films, share!

International Review of the Red Cross, 2009, No. 876 – International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent
Issue No. 876 - 2009
Theme - International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent
Download PDF 4 MB Ever since it was first held in 1867, the International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent has been a unique forum for discussing issues of humanitarian concerns with the Movement of the Red Cross and Red Crescent and the States. By reaffirming the responsibility of all States to respect and ensure respect for international humanitarian law, the Conference regularly explores new challenges and trends as observed in contemporary armed conflicts.
Table of contents
International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent
Interview with Ambassador Masood Khan
Masood Khan has been Pakistan's Ambassador to the People's Republic of China since September 2008. In 2009, he was promoted to the highest rank of Federal Secretary in Pakistan's civil service. Over the years, he has acquired expertise in multilateral diplomacy, security and disarmament issues, human rights, humanitarian diplomacy and social development. He has also specialized in international conferences, having held several leadership positions.
The International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent – challenges, key issues and achievements
François Bugnion
Since the constituent Conference in October 1863, which gave birth to the Red Cross, the International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent has met on thirty occasions. What contribution has the Conference made to the development of international humanitarian law and humanitarian action? What are the main challenges that the Conference has had to face? Where has it succeeded and where has it failed?
The importance of the International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent to National Societies: fundamental in theory and in practice
Michael Meyer
In practice, not all National Societies have taken full advantage of the opportunities provided by the International Conference for interaction and relationship-building with their own authorities. Practical ways are suggested to help National Societies participate more actively in the Conference and to use it to good benefit before and afterwards.
Participation of states in the International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent and assemblies of other international organizations
Deborah Casalin and Christopher Lamb
The International Conference of the Red Cross and Red Crescent ("International Conference") is one of the few international fora in which governments take part on an equal footing with other entities. This article provides an overview of the models for participation in the assemblies of other international organizations, and how problematic cases have been dealt with in various fora.
The emblem that cried wolf: ICRC study on the use of the emblems
Edith Lafontaine and Baptiste Rolle
This article presents the Emblem Study's origin and objectives, and explains the structure and the methodology followed in its preparation. Particular emphasis is put on the need to avoid diluting the protective value of the emblems by maintaining a distinction between those entitled to use the emblems, their partners and other actors in the humanitarian field.
Selected articles on international humanitarian law
Humanitarians and their moral stance in war: the underlying values
Eva Wartel
In this article the moral values underlying humanitarian principles are analysed. What were the original moral values, have they changed and to what extent are they in danger today? Has humanity itself become an instrumental value?
Military intervention for humanitarian purposes: does the Responsibility to Protect doctrine advance the legality of the use of force for humanitarian ends?
Eve Massingham
The Responsibility to Protect is being touted as a new approach to protecting populations from mass atrocities. This paper specifically addresses the evolution of the legality of humanitarian intervention and looks at whether the Responsibility to Protect doctrine advances the legality of the use of force for humanitarian ends.
What does "intent to destroy" in genocide mean?
Kai Ambos
The prevailing view in the case-law interprets the respective "intent to destroy" requirement as a special or specific intent (dolus specialis) stressing its volitional or purpose-based tendency. A historical, literal, systematic and teleological interpretation of the "intent to destroy" requirement, taking into account the particular structure of the genocide offence and the meaning of "intent" in comparative law, reveals that the traditional view can no longer be maintained.

Marisa Miller goes for face-framing waves throughout her lengthy and volumized hairstyle.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Apply a handful of volumizing mousse onto damp hair and blow dry two-inch sections using a large round brush. Lift at the roots and roll the brush several times to create a gentle bend.
Step 2: Spritz the lower part of a two-inch section with styling spray and wrap it around an extra-large curling iron. Hold for a few seconds to set the curl, release and repeat all over. Curl face-framing sections away from your face and alternate curl direction in back.
Step 3: Run your fingers through hair to break up curls and coax fullness.

Mike Upton wins write-in vote for school board
ANDERSON - Mike Upton of Piedmont has won the write-in vote for the District 2 seat on the Anderson County Board of Education with a majority of 253 votes, according to unofficial results from the Anderson County Registration and Elections Commission.
No one filed to run for the seat after former trustee Steve Garrison stepped down in the fall.
Upton's opponent, Eric Freeman of Williamston, started his campaign the Friday before the election and received 21 votes, according to Catherine Rice, a senior registration clerk at the county election office.
According to unofficial election-night results, 609 write-in votes had been cast for the seat.
Totals took until Thursday afternoon to tally because the election officials had more than 3,000 write-in votes countywide to count, Rice said.
The District 2 seat covers Piercetown and Powdersville. Upton joins a board of nine trustees, three of whom faced no opposition in Tuesday's election. He works as a CPA in Greenville.
Upton said many voters wrote his name in for other open seats.
"I know I got votes in a lot of positions I wasn't running for because of confusion," he said.
Freeman, a father and college student, said Wednesday that no matter how the race turned out, he would be satisfied.
"I feel like it is win-win for this district either way," he said.
Official results from the voting office will be reported Friday.

Yinka Shonibare's Fourth Plinth Ship Unveiled Today
Artwork Sparks Tate Debate on Multiculturalism and the Arts
The new commission for the Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square, Nelson's Ship in a Bottle, by leading Anglo-Nigerian artist Yinka Shonibare, is unveiled today, 24 May 2010, the eve of Africa Unity Day, at 09:30am.
Commissioned by the Mayor of London and supported by Arts Council England with sponsorship from Guaranty Trust Bank of Nigeria and additional funding from the Henry Moore Foundation, Nelson's Ship in a Bottle is a scale replica of HMS Victory (1:30) in a bottle, measuring 4.7m in length and 2.8m in diameter.
The artwork is the first commission on the Fourth Plinth to reflect specifically on the historical symbolism of Trafalgar Square, which commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar, and links directly with Nelson's column. It is also the first commission by a black British artist.
The ship's 37 large sails are made of richly patterned textiles commonly associated with African dress and symbolic of African identity and independence. Tying together historical and global threads, the work considers the legacy of British colonialism and its expansion in trade and Empire, made possible through the freedom of the seas and new trade routes that Nelson's victory provided.
Yinka Shonibare said: "London is such a diverse community, and art is a fantastic way to engage everyone regardless of race, class or gender. It is particularly great that this piece is an expression of Nelson's legacy, a legacy which has contributed to the diversity of this city."
Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, said:
"Yinka Shonibare's sculpture is the work of an artist at the top of his game. The Fourth Plinth is about enigma and this will be a national conversation piece - people will ask what it says, is it pro-empire, is it anti-empire? This colourful and quirky take on our seafaring heritage provides a vivid contrast that intensifies the historic surroundings of Trafalgar Square. As with the times, it's a vibrant coalition bringing together the traditional and the contemporary, showing London to be creative and forward looking."
To coincide with the unveiling of the new artwork, Tate Britain will host a debate, tomorrow, (25 May, 18.30–20.00), exploring the legacy and impact of multiculturalism in the context of the arts in Britain today. Is multiculturalism a spent force that promotes cultural disharmony? What does multiculturalism mean in a context of globalisation and 'superdiversity'? What does it mean to be British in the 21st century? Speakers will include Kwame Kwei-Armah (Actor, playwright, broadcaster), Yinka Shonibare (Artist), Munira Mirza (Advisor to Mayor of London for Arts and Culture), Yasmin Alibhai-Brown (Columnist), Matthew Taylor (Chief Executive, RSA).
Ekow Eshun, Chair, The Fourth Plinth Commissioning Group said: "We are absolutely delighted that Yinka Shonibare has accepted the commission and has produced such a compelling and timely response. This is an artwork that reflects on big themes of history, memory and identity with fantastic elegance. I'll be thrilled to see it on show at the heart of London when it is unveiled today."
Tayo Aderinokun, Managing Director of Guaranty Trust Bank said: "We are extremely proud to be associated with the first African artist to exhibit in such as iconic, public location as Trafalgar Square. Guaranty Trust Bank has a reputation for promoting African art and we are very pleased to be the first African corporation to sponsor art in Britain. Yinka's unique artwork has additional resonance for us given that our sponsorship coincides with the celebration of Nigeria's 50th year of independence."
Moira Sinclair, London Executive Director at Arts Council England said: "Yinka's artwork looks through a historic lens to celebrate contemporary London as a truly global city. It directly reflects on its setting and will provide a perfect counterpoint for Nelson and we hope everyone will enjoy the piece on the plinth."
Kwame Kwei-Armah said: "Yinka Shonibare's Nelson's Ship in a Bottle explores pertinent questions about multiculturalism and identity in contemporary culture. I am looking forward to engaging with Yinka tomorrow at Tate Britain where we will debate the relevance of the concept of multiculturalism and what it means to be British today."
Lt Cdr DJ Oscar Whild RN, Commanding Officer of HMS Victory said: "It is very fitting that the Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square is now adorned with this superb sculpture of HMS Victory in a bottle. This magnificent work completes the link between Trafalgar Square and The Battle of Trafalgar, Nelson's Column and now HMS Victory. As Nelson's Flagship at the battle, HMS Victory played a key role in the events of that famous day and I am very pleased to see that reflected here in this sculpture."

Baciwa general manager 'trustworthy, competent'-A A +A
Thursday, August 21, 2014
BACOLOD City Water District (Baciwa) director Cecilia Abello Henares defended embattled general manager Juliana Carbon, saying she is trustworthy and competent.
"I have no knowledge if she has any wrongdoing. As chairperson of the committee on personnel matters, I find their actions of putting GM Carbon under preventive suspension oppressive," Henares said.
About three weeks ago, three directors including board chairman Lawrence Villanueva, vice chairman Lorendo Dilag and director Marichi Ramos, voted to suspend Carbon for several reasons such as misrepresentation of the Murcia Water District bulk water supply contract with Baciwa, giving representation and transportation allowance without a Board approval, and alleged non-disclosure of the P241-million retained earnings of Baciwa.
However, Carbon said her suspension is unlawful.
For her part, Henares said Carbon is a permanent employee of the district since 1985.
"As such, if she is ever accused of any infraction, she must be given due process," she said.
The three directors had also appointed former banker Darwin Destacamento as officer-in-charge of the Office of the General Manager.
"He is not an employee of the water district. I do not know him and his track record. We cannot give the management and leadership of a vital utility to the hands of a person we do not know. Not even for a single day," Henares said.
She added that the resolution appointing Destacamento is invalid as it was passed without a quorum and the required majority votes.
The Local Water Utilities Administration (LWUA) is expected to appoint an interim general manager this week.
"I urgently appeal to the LWUA to intervene or arbitrate in the present controversy besetting the water district. I trust that this matter will be cleared immediately in order to ensure the people of Bacolod that Baciwa service will go on and become better," Henares said.

Guest series 2012: I asked fellow bloggers, makers and creators to write on their creativity and focus their essay on one of four topics: creativity and health, creativity and business, creativity and parenting or creativity and process. I am very excited to have a wonderful lot of fellow creative folk guest posting here at whipup.net over the next couple of months. Please welcome…
Becca is a music teacher who knits, spins, sews and tries to keep up with her three young sons in Minneapolis, MN. You can follow her creative pursuits as well the boys latest antics at Knittymama. She is also found at Flickr and Ravelry.
Thank you Kathreen for inviting me to be a guest blogger in your series on creativity! I'm so happy to be able to share a bit about my creative endeavors while raising my three boys.
I believe creativity is a word in every mother's dictionary. A mother needs to be creative in order to deal with the dozens of curveballs that our children throw at us every day. But for some of us, creativity is not just figuring out how to deal with a screaming three year old hiding under the shopping cart. It's what defines us as a person.
My husband and I were blessed with three sons in the past nine years, and they have completely redefined who I am. Before I had children music was my choice. I had dabbled all my life in little bits of crochet, beading, writing, drawing… but music was what grabbed me. And for many years all I needed in my life was a classroom of children to teach, my bassoon to play and people to play with.
But becoming a mother pushed my creative needs in a different direction. I no longer wanted to be tied to schedules. Long rehearsals were out; I wanted to be home with my family. Practicing at home by myself just wasn't fun when there was no performance to prepare for, plus it was hard work; by 9pm I was exhausted. I needed something quiet, something calming to help me relax, create and recharge after a long day. And so I learned to knit, and then to spin and sew. I spent countless hours after my boys were asleep, letting my mind go and my body wind down after a long day.
As our family grew, I found our children inspired me more than anything had ever inspired me before. Sure, I would see a beautiful pattern I'd like to knit, or a quilt I wanted to make, but original ideas? The things that came out of nowhere? Those ideas came from my boys. A rainbow hat of odd colors that somehow looked great together. A giant reading pillow sewn together with my oldest son. The old t-shirt sleeves quickly cut and re-sewn into "motorcycle-guy" mitts. My boys taught me that I don't need a pattern, I can come up with an idea of my own and just go with it. This is the gift they give to me.
But I also miss those long hours of getting lost in the creative process. I miss getting so deep into something that I forget the time. And it's frustrating when I think I'm going to get a few minutes to myself, and suddenly I hear, "Mama? Can we make our toy owls now? You've been promising for a YEAR!!" (It's really been just a week, but…)
Even harder is when my boys decide to make something on their own, except that it happens to be that they chose to cover three yards of a favorite new fabric with splotches of bright yellow paint. Or that they've tangled up my spinning wheel again. Used my fabric scissors to cut wire. Taken a favorite ball of expensive yarn and used it to make a room sized spider web. My boys are true masters of creative destruction, and many a time I have had to take a very deep breath and remind myself of the bigger picture.
And so we make things together. We find the opportunities to meet their needs and meet my own. We paint, we nail, we glue. We go through a lot of cardboard, yarn and tape. But we also weave and knit and sew. We design pillows and pants. We knit "rainbow" hats in color combinations I never would have thought of. I have learned to sew with one boy on my lap and another sitting behind me, hanging over my shoulders. I've learned to never leave knitting sitting out and always unplug my sewing machine. Somehow we make it all work.
While I watch them grow, I see myself grow too. As much as I love to follow a beautiful pattern, I also now can start from square one, and that's an amazing feeling. I'm not sure if I ever would have taken that leap without my boys prodding me to make something that I didn't have instructions for. Now that we are coming out of the baby years, I find myself drawn back to music too. I can head out for a few hours to go sub in a rehearsal or take the occasional third bassoon part in the community orchestra. I feel like my options are endless.
Lastly, I keep looking for inspiration of all types. I appreciate Shivaya Naturals for reminding me to look for the grace and beauty in everything that we make and do. I love Steady Mom for helping me keep things in enough balance so that we still all have time to do what we love. I love the Yarn Harlot because she keeps it real; I don't feel like I'm the only one with a messy house or kids that fight. And I love the mothers that relish goofy boyishness: All For The Boys for a never ending slew of ideas, as well as the Celebrate The Boy series over at Made by Rae.
What have your children taught you? Have you learned a new skill since you became a parent? Did your creative pursuits take a different direction after your children were born? Where do you find creative inspiration as a parent? I'd love to hear your thoughts and ideas!

Graphene Grains Make Atom-Thick Patchwork Quilts
Ithaca NY (SPX) Jan 06, 2011
Cornell University researchers have unveiled striking, atomic-resolution details of what graphene "quilts" look like at the boundaries between patches, and have uncovered key insights into graphene's electrical and mechanical properties.
Researchers focused on graphene - a one atom-thick sheet of carbon atoms bonded in a crystal lattice like a honeycomb or chicken wire - because of its electrical properties and potential to improve everything from solar cells to cell phone screens.
But graphene doesn't grow in perfect sheets. Rather, it develops in pieces that resemble patchwork quilts, where the honeycomb lattice meets up imperfectly. These "patches" meet at grain boundaries, and scientists had wondered whether these boundaries would allow the special properties of a perfect graphene crystal to transfer to the much larger quilt-like structures.
To study the material, the researchers grew graphene membranes on a copper substrate (a method devised by another group) but then conceived a novel way to peel them off as free-standing, atom-thick films.
Then with diffraction imaging electron microscopy, they imaged the graphene by seeing how electrons bounced off at certain angles, and using a color to represent that angle. By overlaying different colors according to how the electrons bounced, they created an easy, efficient method of imaging the graphene grain boundaries according to their orientation. And as a bonus, their pictures took an artistic turn, reminding the scientists of patchwork quilts.
"You don't want to look at the whole quilt by counting each thread. You want to stand back and see what it looks like on the bed. And so we developed a method that filters out the crystal information in a way that you don't have to count every atom," said David Muller, professor of applied and engineering physics and co-director of the Kavli Institute at Cornell for Nanoscale Science.
Muller conducted the work with Paul McEuen, professor of physics and director of the Kavli Institute, and Kavli member Jiwoong Park, assistant professor of chemistry and chemical biology.
Further analysis revealed that growing larger grains (bigger patches) didn't improve the electrical conductivity of the graphene, as was previously thought by materials scientists. Rather, it is impurities that sneak into the sheets that make the electrical properties fluctuate. This insight will lead scientists closer to the best ways to grow and use graphene.
The work was supported by the National Science Foundation through the Cornell Center for Materials Research and the Nanoscale Science and Engineering Initiative. The paper's other contributors were: Pinshane Huang, Carlos Ruiz-Vargas, Arend van der Zande, William Whitney, Mark Levendorf, Shivank Garg, JonathanAlden and Ye Zhu, all from Cornell; Joshua Kevek, Oregon State University and Caleb Hustedt, Brigham Young University.

Students from Daly Middle School and Lakeview High School packed Honker Court the morning of Thursday, June 5, to be honored by faculty at the annual LHS/DMS end of year awards assembly.
LHS Principal Steve Prock opened the nearly hour and a half assembly, praising the students efforts over the nearly complete school year. Before individual awards were handed out, longtime teacher and track coach Bobbie Steninger was presented with a special framed and matted award honoring her extensive years of service.
Students were asked to come down from the gym stands to be presented with awards in front of the student body while instructors from various departments announced names and accomplishments of each student. Often teachers took a moment to tell a personal story or funny memory about individual students while discussing the efforts of the entire class.
The ceremony included all students of Daly Middle School and freshmen, sophomores and juniors of LHS. A separate senior awards ceremony was held the previous week prior to graduation.
Awards were given out for categories such as perfect attendance, no tardies, Oaks Assessment Testing Awards, CTE achievements, and excellence in math, science, English, history, physical fitness, business, arts, music, and Spanish. Teachers also gave special awards for the most helpful students and teacher's aides.
For DMS, Stacie Jones and Evan Reese were named the most outstanding students for seventh grade, and Kyle Deiter and Alex Conley received the same recognition among eighth graders.
The students of the semester at LHS were Madelyn Keep and Nathan Schutt among freshmen, sophomores Billie Hutchins and Simon Ballaine, and juniors Delaney Hall and Steven Hedlund. LHS students named "most cooperative" included Claire Collins and Nathan Schutt for freshmen, sophomores Anna Fledderjohann and Eduardo Murrieta, and juniors McKenna Albertson, Connor Lysne and Abraham Orozco.
Student council members of each grade were also recognized for their efforts during the school year.

|Pioneers batter Hickory, 34-17
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Friday, 30 October 2009 19:30
The Watauga High football team, playing its final regular-season home game at Jack Groce Stadium, put on a memorable performance Friday night.
The Pioneers defeated Hickory 34-17 and nailed down the No.3 seed in the Northwestern 3A/4A Conference. The win also gives WHS (6-4 overall; 3-2 NW3A/4A) a priority seed when the playoff pairings are announced Nov. 7.
"It was a must-win for us," said WHS coach Tim Pruitt. "Everything fell in place for us tonight, and we're in a very good situation."
And if the Pioneers can win at St. Stephens next week, they could possibly host a first-round playoff game. Remember what happened in 2002, when the Pioneers were 7-4 in the regular season and finished in third in the old NW4A Conference. They received a seventh seed and hosted a first-round game against R. J. Reynolds.
WHS didn't waste any time putting Hickory (5-5; 2-3 NW3A/4A) away. The Pioneers, who nearly muffed the opening kick-off, marched 95 yards in 16 plays and scored on Logan Smith's three-yard run. The drive took 7:25 off the clock.
"Our offensive line, the tight ends and the backs blocked real well all night long," Pruitt said. "We just executed and moved the ball. It was a good night, especially for our offensive line."
The Pioneers had 341 yards offensively, including 219 on the ground. Devan Corum had a monster night, and he also made a strong argument for Player of the Year honors in the NW3A/4A as he racked up 246 total yards. He was 7-11 for 122 yards passing with three touchdown passes----all of those to Travis Oliver, and he also ran for 124 yards on 26 carries.
"We got together after our loss at Alexander (Central) last week, and we were determined to win the rest of our games," said WHS junior Mo Gore. "There is no quit in this team. We've earned everything this year."
Oliver finished with five catches for 113 yards. Defensively, the Pioneers held Hickory to 174 yards, including 92 on the ground. Sophomore running back Shaquan Reid, who has produced four 100-yard games this season, was held to 18 yards on seven carries.
The Pioneers also beat Hickory for the first time since 1965, and for only the second time in 14 tries in this series. Defensively, Caleb Watson had an interception and a fumble recovery, both coming in the third quarter. And both produced touchdowns that allowed WHS to build a 27-10 lead going into the fourth quarter.
The highlight for Hickory occurred just before halftime, when senior Patrick Smith booted a Jack Groce Stadium record 42-yard field goal as time expired in the first half. That kick eclipsed a 41-yard field goal by WHS kicker Sava Kostis in 2007. Kostis is currently a sophomore and on the wrestling team at Appalachian State University.
The Pioneers wrap up the regular season at St. Stephen's next Friday night. Our coverage begins at 6:30 pm on Oldies 100.7 FM.
In other games:
Hibriten 45, Fred T. Foard 7
Alexander Central 28, South Caldwell 3
NOTES: Alexander Central nails down the No.1 seed in the 4A division; Hibriten nailed down the No.1 seed in the 3A division. Those two square off for the No. 1 overall seed next Friday night.
Mountain Heritage 35, Avery 14
Ashe County 51, Forbush 6

Playing with a heavy heart after the passing of his grandfather earlier in the week, Stigger played one of the best games during his career at Henderson.
The linebacker from Collierville, Tenn. had two tackles for lost yardage, one sack, and two pass breakups. Stigger also broke free on 4th-and-1 and scampered 17 yards for his team-leading ninth rushing touchdown of the year.
Rodgers went over the 300-yard passing mark for the 14th time during his career, completing 29-of-40 passes for 378 yards and four touchdowns.
The junior from Rockwall, Texas has been named GAC Offensive Player of the Week 10 times in 24 games played.
Rodgers combined for 402 yards of total offense and ran his total to 70 career touchdown passes.

Read: Dan Boyle talks about the PP and how he thinks it works
In his career, Dan Boyle has 66 goals on the PP and 77 at even strength to go along with 215 PP assists and 200 even strength assists.
About half of Boyle's career points have come on the PP. Since the 2005-06 lockout, Boyle ranks 5th in PP goals by a defenseman, behind Zdeno Chara, Dion Phaneuf, Shea Weber and Mike Green. (HRef)
Asked about the PP, Boyle said, "I've been a big part of the PP for a while, I think it's important for the five guys to know where each other are but with video today, I think it's important to be a little bit unpredictable. What I mean is, the other teams. while the five guys on the unit need to know where each other are at, it's important for the other team not to have an idea of what they are looking for. Sometimes you need to get ugly and when you are too cute is when it starts to go sideways." (Rangers)
Alain Vigneault has said that in in ideal situation you have two players on the ice who shoot one way and three who shoot the other.
Scott Arniel, who runs the PP, says that a successful one is all about establishing the shot and that it helps to have a mix of different shots.
San Jose assistant coach Larry Robinson says that Boyle is "elite" at playing the PP. (NHL.com)

Pulitzer Prizes Focus on Mental Illness for Second Year in a Row
Each Year's Winners Previously Received NAMI Outstanding Media Awards
Statement of Richard C. Birkel, Ph.D., National Executive Director
The National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI) is proud to congratulate Clifford Levy and The New York Times for winning the 2003 Pulitzer Prize in Investigative Reporting for their series on abuses in adult homes for people with mental illnesses.
In 2001, NAMI awarded Levy and the New York Times its Outstanding Media Award in investigative reporting for their initial reporting on adult home scandals. See "Inquiry Finds Mentally Ill Patients Endured Assembly Line Surgery" (March 18, 2001) and "For Mentally Ill, Chaos In An Intended Refuge" (April 18, 2001) by Clifford Levy and Sarah Kershaw.
In 2002, the Pulitzer Committee awarded the prize in Editorial Writing to Alex Raksin and Bob Sipchen of the Los Angeles Times for exemplary leadership in addressing issues facing homeless people with severe mental illness. Similarly, NAMI previously had awarded the Los Angeles Times and Mr. Raksin specifically its Outstanding Media Award for Editorial Writing in 2001.
The fact that the winners of NAMI media awards in 2001 have gone on to receive Pulitzer Prizes in two successive years is testament to the seriousness and urgency of the ongoing crisis in the nation's mental healthcare system, including housing. We hope that other reporters and media will follow their lead and focus on conditions and options in their own communities—particularly now that President Bush's "New Freedom" Commission on Mental Health is moving toward making its final report and recommendations. Sustained reporting is essential to reform of a system in shambles.
With more than 220,000 members and 1200 state and local affiliates, NAMI is the nation's largest grassroots organization dedicated to improving the lives of people with severe mental illnesses. Funding sources for NAMI programs include hundreds of state and local governments and foundations; tens of thousands of individual donors; and a growing number of corporations. NAMI's greatest asset, however, is its volunteers-who donate an estimated $135 million worth of their time each year to education, support and advocacy. NAMI does not endorse any specific medication or treatment.

Baby Bunting
April 3, 2013 § 2 Comments
Here is what I've been working on for my baby boy while waiting for him to make his appearance (he was due last Sunday). I was going to write out the pattern but then I found this one which is practically the same anyway.
Getting back into it.
March 24, 2013 § Leave a comment
I have decided to slowly, slowly start crocheting again. After an hour of trepidation and a few minutes of looking at my crochet hook and feeling a bit nauseous I took the plunge and started a new project. I decided to do something that was extremely quick and easy so that I didn't overwhelm myself. I ended up making a simple bunting/garland to decorate the new arrivals room. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting, it's funny how you develop these sickness associations (I still have a terrible morning sickness association with Dora the Explorer – but I can live without that). I will try to post some photos of my humble garland as well as the pattern tomorrow.

So it's been a while since I've posted anything. I thought I may have been over the morning sickness but it's still lingering and unfortunately the thought of picking up a crochet hook makes my stomach churn – I can't even look at Ravelry without feeling nauseous! I really miss it but at the same time I can't bear to think about it. Thank you so much Jessie for clearing up the Samira Bonnet issue, It had been weighing heavy on my mind for some time now, I have updated the pattern with the corrections. Only 5 weeks to go and hopefully I will be back to my normal self (only this time with a toddler and a newborn to look after).

moreEleven-year-old David Greenberg dreams of becoming a TV superstar like his idol, Jon Stewart. But in real life, David is just another kid terrified of starting his first year at Harman Middle School. With a wacky sense of humor and hilarious Top 6½ Lists, David spends his free time making Talk Time videos, which he posts on YouTube. But before he can get famous, he has to figure out a way to deal with:
6. Middle school (much scarier than it sounds!)
5. His best friend gone girl-crazy
4. A runaway mom who has no phone!
3. The threat of a swirlie on his birthday
2. A terrifying cousin
1. His # 1 fan, Bubbe (his Jewish grandmother)
1/2. Did we mention Hammy, the hamster who's determined to break David's heart?
When David and his best friend have a fight, David is lucky enough to make a pretty cool new friend, Sophie–who just (gulp) happens to be a girl. Sophie thinks David's videos are hilarious, and she starts sending out the links to everyone she knows. Sophie's friends tell their friends, and before David knows it, thousands of people are viewing his videos–including some of the last people he would have expected.
David may still feel like a real-life schmo, but is he ready to become an Internet superstar?

The first day of summer vacation is important, because what you do that day sets the tone for the rest of summer.
That's why my best friend, Elliott Berger, is coming over to watch the Daily Show episodes I've recorded. Mom and I used to watch them together. She always said the host, Jon Stewart, stood up for the little guy, which is funny, because Jon Stewart is a little guy--five feet seven inches. According to Wikipedia, the average height for men in the United States is five feet nine and a half inches.
Let's just say I can totally relate to Jon's height issue.
Anyway, I record other shows, like The Colbert Report and Late Show, too, but mostly Elliott and I watch The Daily Show. We both think Jon Stewart is hilarious and a great interviewer. Someday I'm going to be a famous talk show host like Jon.
He and I have a lot in common.
1. We're both Jewish.
2. We both have our own talk shows--but mine's different from his. It's called TalkTime and I post the shows on YouTube.
3. We're both vertically challenged (but I still have time to grow).
Since Elliott won't be here for a while, I shoot my first TalkTime of the summer without him.
First I set up the studio (aka my bedroom) by taping a poster of New York City's skyline on my wall, kind of like they do on the Late Show with David Letterman. That way it looks like I'm shooting in an exciting location instead of boring Bensalem, Pennsylvania, where the biggest news is that they opened a Golden Corral buffet restaurant on Street Road. (Yes, I know that's a weird name for a road, but that's what it's called. It's almost as stupid as parking in a driveway and driving on a parkway.)
Anyway, next I make sure my special guest is ready in the greenroom (aka the bathroom).
He is.
Finally, I set my camera on the tripod in my bedroom, bang two empty paper-towel rolls together and say, "Action!"
Using my best talk show host voice, I begin: "Welcome to TalkTime with David Greenberg." I scribble on a piece of paper with a grand flourish, like Jon Stewart does on The Daily Show. Then I crumple the paper, toss it into my laundry basket and keep talking. "It's our first show of the summer and it's going to be a hot one. Ha! Ha!"
I hear Hammy's wheel spin like crazy, so I turn the camera toward his cage and give him a close-up. "And now," I say, "your moment of Hammy." As though on cue, Hammy hops off his wheel, looks up and twitches his whiskers.
I smile and think about how I'll edit that later, showing a split screen--Hammy on the right, credits scrolling on the left.
I point the camera back at myself and sit in front of fake New York. "Before we get to today's special guest, it's time for Top Six and a Half with David Greenberg.
"Top Six and a Half Things That I, David Todd Greenberg, Will Miss About Longwood Elementary School.
"One: The lunch lady who snuck ice cream onto my tray every Friday. By the way, awesome hairnet, lunch lady.
"Two: Student of the Week, which I won a total of seven times--more than anyone in the history of Longwood El. Wahoo!"
I pace around my room until I come up with number three. "Three: Helping Ms. Florez in the TV studio with morning announcements. She said I was the best news anchor she ever had."
I pace again and trip on the tripod. The camera topples, but I catch it. I can edit that out later, though it'll make a weird jump in the action. It would probably be safer if I wrote my Top Six and a Half before I filmed them! Back in front of fake New York, I take a deep breath and say, "Four: Spanish Club.
"Five: Academic Games.
"Six: Watching Coach Lukasik, who is definitely not vertically challenged--that man could be an NBA superstar--hula hoop during P.E. with the girls.
"And the thing I'll miss most about Longwood El?
"Six and one-half: Everything!"
