Hirano Aya At Phu Ket
She is certainly spending more time on her work outside of anime, and people have noted that she is not slated to appear in any of the new fall shows. But she has leading roles in three continuing shows: Fairy Tail, Nurarihyon no Mago, and Jewelpet Tinkle. Unfortunately, those are not shows I enjoy enough to watch myself, however well she may perform.
In any case, here are some photos from Aya's blog:
She even had nail art applied to her toes, in preparation for the swimsuit photo sessions. Some anti-Aya Japanese otaku have gleefully discerned a hair or two in the photo:
Here are a couple of shots of Aya doing a kind of work she is doing a lot of these days: appearing on TV variety and talk shows. She is talking about unusual things that have happened in her career. From the on-screen titles, she seems to be talking about being shone on by photo lights brighter than the sun, and about how dark smoke started to come out of her head.

I saw the exerpt from the show on Youtube, but it has been removed due to copyright (Found it there: http://yunakiti.blog79.fc2.com/?q=%CA%BF%CC%EE%B0%BD).
And from what I understood, she talked about a photoshoot when it was cold outside and there were this very very bright lights which shone on her.
A staff member told her that the lights could be very hot but she shouldn't mind and continue the photoshoot.
After a while there was smoke coming from her head because of the spotlights, someone saw it and pushed her head down in the snow so that her hair couldn't catch fire.
Maybe you find the exerpt on other video services but I haven't searched for it.

@Nili -- Thanks. That's a good story. I couldn't find it on Nico or via Google Images, but I sure discovered how many Aya videos are being posted recently.

I hate that Aya isn't interested on doing more voice acting anymore, but I still support her.
I do like her Lucy and Kana, they are great characters, same as her acting, but as much as I'd like to listen her in Twinkle Pet, that's a show I'm not going to watch.
Hope that at least she keeps taking big roles on mainstream series every now and then. It would be terrible for me as a fan to go a season without her being on any series at all.

Yes, Thailand is hot. Aya said she got a rash from the heat. But as winter approaches in North America, the warmth of Thailand sounds very good.

UIU and Fareway agree to CAP partnership
Upper Iowa University announces June and August graduatesview all news ›
Student Government Association officers elected for Upper Iowa University's 2011-12 academic year
FAYETTE, IA (April 26, 2011) -- Upper Iowa University students have elected Student Government Association (SGA) officers for the 2011-12 academic year. The new UIU SGA officers are President Anthony DiJohn, Vice President Kayla Ludwigson, Secretary Skylar Lesan, Treasurer Lauren Verhulst, and Academic Extension Officer Justin Marchant.
DiJohn is a senior from Aurora, Ill., majoring in accounting, financial management, and management. This is DiJohn's second year as a SGA officer. He also served as vice president during the 2010-11 academic years. As president, DiJohn's responsibilities will include organizing and leading SGA meetings; acting as liaison to University administrators; facilitating University changes based on student needs, and serving as a student representative on the University Council, President's Cabinet, and the Board of Trustees. He said, "I ran for Student Government because I am truly interested in making a difference on campus and wanted to ensure my voice would be heard."
Also a senior, Ludwigson is from Alma, Wis., double majoring in psychology and human services with a minor in sociology. As vice president, Ludwigson will preside over meetings and assume the responsibilities of the president in his absence; coordinate correspondence with any affiliated state or national organization and other student governments; revise the SGA constitution and bylaws as needed; act as a standing member of the Council for Residential Studies; serve as chair of elections, and keep records and file reports that will assist and aid future vice presidents.
This is Ludgwigson's first year as an SGA officer. "UIU has provided me with multiple opportunities that have allowed me to grow, not only as a student but also as a person," Ludwigson said. "I thought that participating in student government would be the perfect way to give back to the school. It will also give me the chance to develop skills, such as leadership and communication that will be beneficial after college."
Lesan is a sophomore from Solon, Iowa, majoring in psychology with a sports and exercise science minor. This is Lesan's first year as a SGA officer. "I decided to run because I love to be involved and will hopefully be able to help make decisions that benefit the student body," Lesan said. As secretary, Lesan will prepare, distribute, and maintain the files for all SGA business.
A senior from Dike, Iowa, Verhulst is an accounting major. Verhulst served as SGA treasurer during the 2010-11 academic years and will again be responsible for keeping track of the expenditures in the SGA budget. Verhulst added, "I look forward to working with the team again to set and achieve goals for the students on campus. The Student Government Association is an organization that is here to listen to the students' needs and better the experience for Upper Iowa students on campus."
A graduating senior, Marchant from Oregon, Wis., served as the 2010-11 SGA president. After completing his bachelor's degree in biology and sports and exercise science, Marchant will continue as a graduate assistant and serve on SGA as the Academic Extension officer, representing UIU's non-Fayette locations. Marchant said he want to fully develop the AE officer role to make it as effective as possible in addressing the concerns of UIU students beyond Fayette. Marchant said, "With the recent changes on the Fayette campus, a $75 million capital improvement campaign, as well as the addition of new center locations and a growing international program, the need to hear the student voice has never been greater," he added.
The role of UIU's SGA is to represent the student body to faculty and administration; communicate constructive undergraduate opinions, as well as promote loyalty and pride in the University to current students, future students, and alumni.

I just got a heads up on this nifty resource while working on my student debt project for The Monroe Evening News: a student loan repayment calculator hosted by the U.S. Department of Education.
To get accurate results for your situation, you need to run the calculator on the amount and interest rate for each loan you expect to take out, or have already signed.
But for a sample run, I'll use the 6.8 percent that is the default on the page because that is the interest rate for some of the student loans issued in recent years.
Then plug in the $26,675 student loan debt that the Project on Student Debt says was the average debt load in 2010 for students who graduated from Michigan colleges or universities, and took out loans to pay for at least some of the expenses.
The result on the standard repayment plan is 10 years of payments of $306.98 a month, for a total of $36,837.21 paid back.

"I'm not trying to run away from it," Watson said at a Cannes Film Festival news conference on Thursday where The Bling Ring premiered. "I'm very proud of the work that I did. I'm just really enjoying having the chance to transform into new roles." ...

Blue on Blue: Lessons from a tragic 2007 shooting
When one of your 'band of brothers' leaves the band
There have been a number of "Blue on Blue" shootings in the news recently. These incidents present responding officers with a variety of challenges logistically, tactically, and emotionally. A report is available online on one justifiable blue-on-blue shooting which followed the officer involved domestic violence multiple homicide in Crandon, Wisconsin.
The report reveals Officer Tyler Peterson was a young officer, who showed great promise as a 20-year-old member of the Forest County Sheriff's Department. He possessed such great skills and potential he was trained in SWAT and placed on the area Tactical Team. Tyler had a secret dark-side, however, witnessed by his girlfriend, Jordanne Murray. She experienced several incidents of abuse and attempted to separate from Tyler. Jordanne did not report these incidents to the police (perhaps to avoid jeopardizing his career).
In the early morning hours of October 7, 2007 Jordanne was at a small gathering with friends. Tyler arrived after a night of shining deer and drinking beer. He accused Jordanne of having a relationship with one of the young men present and the off duty Deputy was asked to leave. Peterson appeared to comply with this request.
He would reveal to a friend later someone called him a "worthless pig," and he "snapped."
Peterson returned a short time later with his AR-15 and forced the locked door open. He entered the home then moved through the residence systematically shooting and killing Jordanne Murray, Lianna Thomas, Katrina McCorkle, Lindsey Stahl, Bradley Schultz, and Aaron Smith. Peterson also shot Charlie Neitzel three times, but Neitzel survived the ordeal by feigning dead.
After running out of people to shoot, Peterson exited the home and headed toward his truck. Officer Greg Carter of the Crandon Police Department arrived at the scene and was immediately at a disadvantage. He did not see a killer standing in front of him, but a fellow officer. Tyler turned suddenly toward Carter and sprayed the windshield of the squad in a clear attempt to kill his former partner. Carter instantly lay across the seat and slammed the squad into reverse backing out of the kill zone. Greg then exited the squad and quickly moved to cover.
Carter's face was bleeding, hit by flying glass. His vision was blurred by glass fragments in his eyes, but he was able to radio in information about what had happened and who the suspect was as Peterson fled the scene.
Investigators would later reveal Peterson's rounds missed Carter by centimeters.
The Manhunt and Standoff
1.) Knew what they knew.
Tyler used all of these advantages to avoid his capture initially. He made multiple phone calls, admitting his crime, expressing his intent on turning himself in, while all of his actions proved otherwise. He told family that he would not go to prison to serve six life sentences. In an effort to confound his pursuers he said he was calling from miles away from somewhere in the upper Michigan peninsula.
At 0915 hours, law enforcement officers received information that Tyler Peterson was at "The Kegley House," where he was drinking and eating with a number of people. Tactical Teams from Oneida, Langlade and Vilas County sealed off the home, which was bordered by the heavy forest of Northern Wisconsin. All officers at the scene were advised that Tyler Peterson had killed six people and was not to be allowed to leave containment.
During the negotiations that followed Tyler demanded to be allowed to leave armed, so he could drive himself to Oneida County Sheriff's Department and turn himself in. This demand was denied. The negotiator pleaded with Tyler to "Make a good decision here."
Tyler allowed some people with him to leave the house. He kept others and although he assured the negotiator that he would not harm anyone he called those still with him "collateral."
The difficult terrain, the innocents present, Tyler's weaponry, training, and skill made the entry option an especially dangerous proposition, so negotiators continued to negotiate Tyler's surrender.
The Death of Tyler Peterson
At 1230 hours a tactical officer on the perimeter saw Tyler, who was armed with a pistol, attempting to escape into the heavy forest adjacent to the Kegley home. The tactical officer aimed at the last part of Peterson, he could see and fired. Tyler fell. The round fired from 140 yards away struck Tyler and traveled through his bicep. Witnesses reported hearing two more quick shots followed by a third shot from Peterson's location.
On approach, tactical officers found Peterson. They moved a handgun out of his reach and handcuffed him. Upon closer inspection they discovered Tyler was dead. An autopsy revealed that Peterson shot himself twice under the chin. When these rounds failed to end his life he fired a third round into his own temple.
Handle them with care, but use extreme caution.
For those of us who have had to aim our duty weapon at a fellow officer, we know of the conflicting thoughts that can invade the mind during those long moments of decision. The few who have had to pull the trigger are the only ones who know of the long agonizing that can follow.
Remember this. Do what you can to help, but do not allow a fellow officer's bad decisions to end your career — or your life.

Third level education in County Tipperary was given a major boost when the uncertainty surrounding the future of Tipperary Institute was removed.
The Institute, which faced closure in the McCarthy Bord Snip Report, has been given a lifeline with a merger with Limerick Institute of Technology.
The formal merger between TI and Limerick Institute of Technology is now in place signalling a major step forward for third level education in the county. It is seen as a very positive move which protects and enhances third-level education in County Tipperary.
Subject to government decisions, the amalgamation will be fully implemented by September 2011.
The third level campus in the two Tipperary towns will now be known as LIT (Clonmel) and LIT (Thurles).
Michael O'Connell, Acting CEO of Tipperary Institute (a senior manager on secondment from LIT) stated: "There are approximately 4,600 students from Tipperary in third level at any one time. But there is plenty of room to grow educational opportunity.
"Tipperary is still well behind the best county participation levels in higher education (56% in Tipperary versus 70% in Sligo and 66% in Galway and Mayo). We look forward to working with schools, VECs, parents and teachers to make this exciting development a reality in the lives of many more Tipperary students."
The Governing Body of Limerick Institute of Technology (LIT) and the Board of Directors of Tipperary Institute (TI) have agreed in a scoping document the basis for TI to become part of LIT.
This is a move that will create a significantly enlarged Institute of Technology serving Limerick, Clare and North and South Tipperary.
The scoping document also sets out how governance structures, financial arrangements, human and physical resources and academic offerings will be transformed over the coming 5-year period.
The two organisations had only been working on these proposals since early December, in a co-operative process at the behest of the Department of Education and Science, and they have swiftly reached agreement.
LIT in its new form will have a course portfolio for all the campuses of 68 programmes listed on the CAO and dozens of part-time programmes, giving scope for a major increase in student numbers within current resources from around 7,000 currently to 8,000 by 2015.
Included here are plans to double TI's current 500 full time students to 1,000, to widen lifelong learning and research and development opportunities. The aim is to strengthen enhanced higher education hubs in Thurles and Clonmel in co operation with LIT's two Limerick campuses. These hubs are to be known as LIT (Thurles), LIT (Clonmel) or in combination LIT (Tipperary).
Work can now begin on the mapping out of the detailed academic offerings to be developed on a complementary and mutual support basis between the Limerick and Tipperary campuses. This will also involve the transformation of TI's structures so as to better match the huge pool of talent, skills, and creativity available in the Institute to more closely match the needs of Tipperary students, their parents, schools and other stakeholders.
There are also combined strengths in research, development and enterprise support. For instance, LIT has in recent years secured collaborative research projects involving 120 companies totalling j11.7m, mainly in applied biotechnology and ICT. TI has been successful in obtaining €10m of EU funding to lead projects in sustainability and rural development. There are plans to roll out the highly successful Enterprise Acceleration Centre at LIT to the Tipperary based campuses, offering a supportive environment for business start ups.

David Armano wrote a great post on "Social Business: Where It's Been and Where It's Going". I would highly encourage you to hop over there and give it a read.
He and I have similar pasts where digital is concerned and we view the space through much the same lens. So needless to say I wholeheartedly agree with his post. The only thing I'd add however, is that there's also one big difference when you compare the historical evolution of digital within the business environment and the social business evolution of today. Looking back, the 'Business' portion of the web was, as he rightly states, a transactional one. Essentially, how do we take our known ways of 'processing' business and move that into new ways of interfacing customers to those operational processes.
The Timing Of Yesterday
That allowed for a great deal of channel disintermediation to take place in particular. Typically this was done by startups or 'pure plays'. From that angle things are following much the same pattern today. David uses Kickstarter as an example of this, it's as good as any. Established brands on the other hand have some choices to make. As the brand with a disintermediation threat (or opportunity) you have to react. Namely, if you're Blockbuster (gone) and you see Netflix catching some traction…when do you make your move? When do you accept that the long term play no longer lives in your existing plans? Do you buy them and run parallel to your existing brick & mortar model? Do you invest in creating your own version and cannibalize part of your existing business? If you're a grocery chain and you hear about a massive startup play called WebVan (gone) taking shape, you have many of the same options. Borders (gone) and Amazon. E-commerce development and Pandesic (gone). The list of choices made and not made is long and varied, it's filled with those who chose too early, too late, or ignored making a choice entirely.
The Option Of Money
But here's where the difference appears. In all cases those companies had the *option* of acting. The *option* of catching up. If you threw enough money at the challenge, and made the right choices you could compete against the threat and/or take advantage of the opportunity even if you were late to the game. Why? Because in the end it was about building technologies and a brand around them. It doesn't matter that Apple may have taken 5 years to develop the notion of an 'app store', if I'm Google and I'm willing to spend the money I can decide to compete in the mobile space and build a similar model. I have that *option*. It in no way means I will win, it just means I have that option.
The Difference
OK, so what different? Social Business is not about technologies at its core. While they certainly are an important piece of the puzzle, they are simply enablers. It's about people. The culture that people develop, the relationships that they form and leverage, striking a mutual balance of benefits between the selfish and selfless. That difference expresses itself in a couple of very important ways where decision making processes are concerned and the impact they have on your business.
- The Downside: Unlike technology and brand creation, culture and relationship development are one of the few things that money simply cannot accelerate beyond a certain point. If you 'wait and see' how much traction a potential threat is getting you can no longer 'catch up' by just throwing more money at it than you would have if you had started earlier. That was your risk in the past. If your competition gets too far ahead of you in that realm now you may not be able to catch up regardless of how deep your pockets are.
- The Upside: Unlike technology and brand creation, culture and relationship development are one of the few things that you don't have to write off of an asset sheet. There is no downside to improving your communication processes. There is no downside to incorporating knowledge more effectively into your organization. There is no downside to building an environment that will attract tomorrows top talent. As many large enterprises learned the hard way, throwing great technology (CRM anyone?) at a problem might make your piggybank lighter and make you feel like you're addressing it but it ignores things like deep adoption and engagement, connectedness amongst the members of your business ecosystem (partners, employees, customers), etc. Social Business structures are a method of achieving these things, we strongly believe it is one of the better options out there.
Efficiency ≠ Effectiveness
Somewhere along the way companies got lost thinking that overall efficiency = overall effectiveness. It doesn't, those are two different concepts completely. They can go together, but they aren't the same thing. Social Business is about making you more effective, sure it'll gain you some efficiencies as well but that's not its general purpose. Making your company more effective is *never* a bad thing, but it does take time because of its reliance on things like culture and relationships to drive the engine. It always has, which is why we've tried for years to shortcut that process with technology. The promise of just being able to spend some money and achieve that effectiveness without all the messy human stuff and without all the time expenditure was just too attractive. We've done a good job with efficiencies…not so much with effectiveness.
Time, Time, Time
But what do you do when your competition does become more effective than you as a business overall? When they start engaging in evolving as a social business today and you don't? When effectiveness becomes the differentiator how do you catch up when no matter what business model shifts you attempt to make later they are still being made on top of a company that is simply less effective? You can't spend your way out of it at that point, you need the one thing you no longer have enough of….time. It's like thinking that you can catch up to your older siblings age by running faster.
Wait And See Is Not An Option
Becoming a social business (call it a a more 'evolved' business if you don't want to say 'social business') will not guarantee you become or remain a success. But it will give you the best possible odds and a great deal more options later on, which is more than can be said if you don't. Wait and see is no longer an option, but the good news is that there's not really a penalty to be paid by starting today. Sounds like a good choice to have to me.

For a market that essentially finished flat for the week, there sure were a lot of fireworks. Technically, though, it all went pretty much according to plan, as the expected 16300 bounce happened on Thursday.
I suspect we're not out of the woods yet, and think a dip to 16K is likely.
When someone from the FED speaks, utilities are always the first to react. We saw that with (D), but it bounced nicely on Friday. Look for the comeback to continue.
Where have I been with Sherwin-Williams (SHW)? I always like to buy a stock when I first start using its product or service. Think about buying Starbucks (SBUX) the first time you had a coffee there. So, I should have bought SHW when we first started painting. Looks like there's still time, though.
Back next week to celebrate the Dog Days of Summer. Here's hoping the Friday rally wasn't a mirage.

Buffalo WR David Nelson celebrates TD by handing football to Cowboys cheerleader (his girlfriend)
ARLINGTON – Buffalo receiver David Nelson caught a 3-yard touchdown pass Sunday in the second quarter and raced down the Bills' sideline all the way to the other end of the field to hand the football to a Cowboys cheerleader.
This wasn't just any Cowboys cheerleader, however. It was his girlfriend, Kelsi Reich, who is in her fourth season as a Cowboys cheerleader.
Nelson had said coming into the game that if he scored, he had a celebration planned that would include his girlfriend. Reich was one of the eight Cowboys' cheerleaders on the opposite end of the field from where Nelson scored along the Bills' sideline. Nelson handed Reich the football and hugged her. At the time, Nelson's touchdown cut the Cowboys' lead to 21-7.
"It was special," Nelson said. "Honestly, I wanted to do more. I wanted it to be a little more special, but being down 14, I didn't feel like I wanted to do too much because I'm not that kind of person. I'm not going to celebrate too much [if] the situation wasn't right."
Nelson, who is from Wichita Falls, said there were about 120 tickets purchased for his and Reich's family and friends.

Bline has found her calling
By: Stephanie Dumm, News Messenger Reporter
Julie Bline has been Community Christian Schools? principal for three weeks. She has been working to up-date the school?s website, ccslincoln.com. Name: Julie Bline Age: 38 City: Lincoln Occupation: Principal at Community Christian Schools Family: Husband, Rob; Son Will, 14; Daughters Lizzy, 12, and Emily, 8. How long have you been principal for Community Christian Schools? For three weeks. I was a first-grade teacher last year and was an after-school care teacher the year before. Being a parent and teacher here, I have a passion and desire to see the school grow and affect the families of the Lincoln community. Have you always been a teacher? I ran my own in-home preschool for 10 years in Citrus Heights and, while I was doing that, I got my administration credentials from Golden Gate Baptist Seminary. I knew I loved kids and desired to see families be able to raise their kids with good morals and support system. What do you enjoy about being a principal the past three weeks? When the kids look at me, smile, give me a hug and say ?Principal Bline,? that?s the best thing so far. What is your vision for the school? To see our small community of families come together in a unified way, with a desire to embrace our community. The school?s purpose is to be a service to our community. How will you create this vision? Just to be a prominent figure in the community as a leader of our school. I plan to do that with personal interactions, meeting the needs of our community and families and tuition assistance for families who want their child to attend the school but can?t afford it. Let families know we are nondenominational. We are Christian but not affiliated with any specific church. What do you enjoy about being in education? Everything. I love the kids and seeing them succeed, be confident and proud of themselves, and seeing how they affect their families when they grow up. Are you intimidated by your new role as principal? I?m not intimidated, I love it. I?m ecstatic and excited. I have been more jazzed and motivated in the last few weeks than I have been in years. I feel like I found my purpose in life, my calling. What do your kids (who attend the school) think about your being their new principal? They are actually pretty excited. They ask me if we can have jeans day every day. My son was sitting next to me on the couch when I was doing the schedule and he said, ?Mom, can we have more days off?? What do you like to do in your free time? I love being a mom and hanging out with our pets. We have two dogs, a brand new kitten, a guinea pig and lots of fish. Secondly, I enjoy anything outdoors, like being at the beach and hiking through the wilderness or woods, anything I can do with my family. What would someone be surprised to know about you? I am a knowledge seeker. When I have a passion or interest in something, I will go online and read books about that subject. I?m an avid reader of all kinds of books. There are books overflowing in my home. Right now, I?m reading a romance and I like mysteries and books on education, parenting, all of the above. To see a neighbor or friend featured here, please e-mail stephanied@goldcountry media.com or call Stephanie Dumm at 774-7967. Community Christian Schools is currently accepting students for its summer program. Where: 1545 First Street When: 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, through Aug. 17 Cost: $140 per week Info: www.ccslincoln.com or 645-6280

Here we are soccer fans, the "Soccer Shorts" Reporter edition.
Just a brief history about this wonderful soccer column. The column started back in 1999, right during the heyday of the soccer explosion in Fond du Lac. Originally, The Reporter was approached about publishing this (most of the time) weekly soccer rant. The Action Advertiser was the highest bidder so it went to them until the move to The Reporter this week. Disclaimer - I cannot kid myself, there really was no highest bidder, Scott Wittchow, at the Action just did not want to see me cry anymore, Gary Clausius, at The Reporter, just kept giving me a tissue.
So here we are 13 years later, a regular spot in your Thursday edition of The Reporter. The hope is to continue to bring the excitement of the beautiful game to you each and every Thursday all year long.
Most of the time it will be soccer news, high school, Major League Soccer, and our National teams. Occasionally there may be a little rant relating to youth sports, parent behavior, developmental concerns. If it is on my mind it will be on yours. I am very excited to be part of The Reporter and have this article available online as well as in print.
First, the local soccer: tonight is Senior Night for the Fond du Lac varsity girls team. The Cardinals play Menasha at 7 p.m. at the Soccer Complex. We have five seniors: Sophie Chertos, Bianca Mendez, Samantha Sabel, Janessa Magdefrau, and Shannon Burns. Come out and give them a great send-off. All of our local high schools start the WIAA playoffs next week; the high school season is winding down so catch a game while you can.
On the national front, the U.S. men will start qualifying for the 2014 World Cup on June 12 vs. Guatemala. They have a few tune-up games this month - at 7 p.m. on Saturday you can watch them on NBC against Scotland. On May 30, they will play Brazil at 7 p.m. on ESPN 2, two very tough matches in a short time.
The U.S. women are preparing for the Summer Olympics in London by playing China at 6 p.m. on Sunday. TV coverage to be determined for the women's game, but you can get a game-cast on ussoccer.com.
For all of you readers with young players in the house, sign them up for a local soccer camp or find a Sudden Impact Soccer Camp form at www.gregwinkler.net
I am excited to bring you soccer news each Thursday, until next week.....
Keep on Kickin'.
Greg Winkler is the boys and girls varsity soccer coach at Fond du Lac High School.

Fujitsu to bring senior-aimed Raku Raku to Orange in France
updated 06:06 am EST, Tue February 19, 2013
Stylistic S01 includes simplified menus, call assists
Fujitsu and Orange have agreed to offer Fujitsu smartphones to customers in France, with initial handsets being targeted at senior users. The first offering will be the Stylistic S01, a mid-ranged 4-inch Android 4.0 smartphone based heavily on the Fujitsu Raku Raku, one that is focused on helping elderly users communicate.
A number of features from the Raku Raku directly transfer over to the Stylistic S01, including the extra-large icons, simplified layout, and a touchscreen that requires the same level of pressure to activate on-screen icons as a physical button on a keypad would, in an effort to avoid spurious inputs. It will also optimize the audio frequency range based on a user's age to make it easier for older users to listen to conversations, while another function will slow down the speech of callers without altering the pitch.
The Stylistic S01's display will render an 800x480 image, and contains a Qualcomm MSM8255 processor running at 1.4GHz, 4GB of storage expandable by microSD, a rear 8.1MP camera with a 0.3MP counterpart, a 1,800mAh battery, and water and dust resistance to IPX5/8 and IP5X levels.
Orange hopes to put the first Stylistic handsets on sale in France by June, though a price has not been provided.

Name: Kemenche
Geographic Region: West Asia
Country of origin: Turkey
Subregion: Black Sea Coast
Classification: Chordophone
SvH No.: 321.322
Physical description | Tuning and technique | Context | References
Physical description
The kemençe ("kemenche" in English orthography) is a three-stringed Turkish bowed lute. In Turkey, there are two main types of kemençe: a pear-shaped fiddle of classical music called the fasıl kemençesi, and the more elongated, box-shaped Karadeniz kemençesi used in folk music performances along the Black Sea coast (Picken 1975: 296-7). The example shown here is of the latter variety. The soundboard is made out of spruce, with two long, narrow soundholes. The body is carved out of a single piece of wood (see Picken 1975: 295-6).
Tuning and technique
The kemençe has three strings, which are usually tuned in fourths. Some feature fretless fingerboards which are removable; many performers play the instrument without a fingerboard (Picken 1975: 297). The example pictured here lacks a fingerboard. The instrument is held upright, and may be played seated or standing, or even while leading a form of chain-dance called horon (Picken 1975: 301). Melodies bowed on a higher string are accompanied by a drone or by parallel fourths played on a lower string, and in some cases, all three strings may be bowed together. The kemençe player typically plays exclusively in first position.
The kemençe is played to accompany folk dance or singing, and frequently for solo instrumental performance. Melodies are short and repetitive, but good kemençe players know a number of variations of each melody that they perform over the course of numerous repetitions. The music performed on kemençe is noteworthy for its rhythmic complexity and extremely fast tempo.

I really miss daydream since having the quickcircle case.
You can turn on daydream but once you close the door it turns the screen off. If the screen could somehow be set to stay on when in daydream mode Im sure it would be very easy to make a quick circle daydream using an existing daydream app that supports themes.
Any ideas?

October 6, 2005 – January 15, 2006
Sustainable design attempts to meet the needs of the present without compromising those of future generations. Balancing environmental, social, economic, and aesthetic concerns, sustainable design has the potential to transform everyday life and is being enacted around the world in large and small ways not only by architects and designers but also by growing numbers of activists, corporations, policymakers, and possibly even your next-door neighbors. Beyond Green: Toward a Sustainable Art explored how this design philosophy resonates with an emerging generation of international artists who combine a fresh aesthetic sensibility with a constructively critical approach to the production, dissemination, and display of art. Contributing artists and artists' groups from the United States and Europe included Allora & Calzadilla; Free Soil; JAM; Learning Group; Brennan McGaffey in collaboration with Temporary Services; Nils Norman; People Powered; Dan Peterman; Marjetica Potrc, Michael Rakowitz; Frances Whitehead, WochenKlausur; and Andrea Zittel. The exhibition included existing works, commissions, and previously presented work that had been "recycled" spotlighting ways in which artists are building paths to new forms of practice.
Curator: This exhibition was co-organized by the Smart Museum of Art, University of Chicago, and iCI (Independent Curators International), New York, and circulated by iCI. This exhibition was curated by Stephanie Smith, Smart Museum Curator of Contemporary Art.
Tour Dates: Museum of Arts & Design, New York, New York, February 2 – May 7, 2006; University Art Museum, California State University Long Beach, November 1 – December 17, 2006; Smith College Museum of Art, Northampton, Massachusetts, February 2 – April 15, 2007; Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, May 5 – July 15, 2007; Richard E. Peeler Art Center, DePauw University, Greencastle, Indiana, September 14 – December 2, 2007; Museum London, London, Ontario, Canada, January 4 – March 14, 2008; Joseloff Gallery, Hartford Art School, University of Hartford, Hartford, Connecticut, April 2 – June 10, 2008; The Ronna and Eric Hoffman Gallery of Contemporary Art, Lewis & Clark College, Portland, Oregon, September 11, 2008 – December 7, 2008; The DeVos Art Museum, Northern Michigan University, Marquette, Michigan, January 19 – March 30, 2009.
Exhibition Catalogue is available for download and for purchase from the Smart Museum Shop.
This exhibition and accompanying catalogue were made possible in part by the Smart Family Foundation; the Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation; the Richard H. Driehaus Foundation; and iCI Exhibition Partners Kenneth S. Kuchin and F. Bruce Anderson, and Gerrit and Sydie Lansing. Additional support was provided by the Arts Planning Council, the Environmental Studies Program, and the Green Campus Initiative, University of Chicago.

HAMPTON, Va. - The University of Maryland Eastern Shore men's basketball team brought a solid game plan and stuck with one of the conference's best in Hampton University, but faltered late in the second half to lose, 78-66, Monday night at the HU Convocation Center.
The Hawks led, 51-50, with 10:28 left in the game off of a 3-point play from senior Freddy Obame Obame (Libreville, Gabon) but then allowed the Pirates to go on a 21-5 run over the next six minutes to fall behind, 71-56, with 4:23 on the clock.
Despite holding HU to just seven more points for the remainder of the game, UMES was unable to recover from the Pirates' surge.
"Hampton is a solid, strong team and I'm very encouraged by the way we played and stuck with them for the majority of the game," head coach Frankie Allen stated. "At crucial moments, they did a great job of hitting big plays. Our effort and intensity were there against a really good team, but they just got hot in the second half and we were unable to catch up."
Redshirt junior Hillary Haley (Oxon Hill, Md.) recorded double digit scoring for the 12th straight game and led the team in scoring for the eleventh time in 12 games with 20 points on 7-of-14 shooting on the night. He also grabbed a team-high nine rebounds in the loss.
Junior Tyler Hines (Sicklerville, N.J.) chipped in 13 points on 6-of-10 shooting. He also had seven rebounds on the night.
Senior Kevin White (Brooklyn, N.Y.) tallied six assists against the Pirates, which put him over 100 for the season. With this total, he became the first player since at least the 2001 season to record back-to-back 100 assist seasons.
The Hawks held their largest lead of the game with 10:42 remaining in the first half with a score of 26-18 off of an open layup from Haley in the middle of the paint. HU immediately called a timeout and rattled off seven straight points to bring the score to 26-25 with 6:22 on the clock.
The two teams battled back and forth at that point, having the lead change four times in just four minutes.
With 2:54 on the clock, junior Diyaaldin Kelley (Philadelphia, Pa.) made a layup to bring the score to 31-30.
Mike Truitt and Kwame Morgan made three straight free throws to take the lead at 33-31 before White sank a jumper in the paint to tie the game going into halftime at 33-33.
The loss puts the Hawks at 4-17 overall on the season and 1-7 in Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference play. The Pirates continue to stay atop the MEAC leader board with a 17-5 overall record and 7-2 in conference play.
Morgan, who scored a game and career-high 30 points on 10-of-19 shooting and 8-of-14 from downtown, led Hampton. Brandon Tunnell contributed a double-double for the Pirates with 12 assists and 10 points in the game.
UMES returns home on Saturday for a 4 p.m. matchup with the Norfolk State Spartans.

Russia coach Fabio Capello on Monday named his final 23-man squad to play in the FIFA World Cup™ finals led by experienced defender Sergei Ignashevich, midfielder Roman Shirokov and forward Alexander Kerzhakov. The 31-year-old Kerzhakov is the only player in the squad who has previous World Cup experience having been in the squad that competed in 2002, the last time Russia reached the final stages.
Capello trimmed his original squad of 30 down to 25 in mid-May and the two players to miss out on being in the final selection were Denis Cheryshev from Spanish high-flyers Sevilla and Pavel Mogilevets of Rubin Kazan. The former England manager, who recently extended his contract with the Russian Football Union until the end of the 2018 World Cup, retained talented youngsters Andrei Semenov and Maxim Kanunnikov.
He named his final squad two days after a 1-1 draw with Norway in a friendly match. Last month Russia defeated Slovakia 1-0 in their first World Cup warm-up match. All of Capello's squad are from Russian Premier League sides including six from Dynamo Moscow, who finished fourth in the league this season.
Five players represent champions CSKA, who retained their title this season, and four are from runners-up Zenit St Petersburg. Russia will open their World Cup campaign against Korea Republic on 18 June.
Capello's side have been drawn in World Cup Group H, which also includes Belgium and Algeria as they make their first appearance at the finals in 12 years. The last time Russia played in the World Cup finals in 2002 they faced Belgium, Japan and Tunisia in their group, but failed to advance into the knock-out stages.
The best performance by a Russian team in the World Cup dates back to 1966 in England when the then Soviet Union came fourth.
Russia squad:
Goalkeepers: Igor Akinfeev (CSKA Moscow), Yury Lodygin (Zenit St Petersburg), Sergei Ryzhikov (Rubin Kazan)
Defenders: Vasily Berezutsky, Sergei Ignashevich, Georgy Shchennikov (all CSKA Moscow), Vladimir Granat, Alexei Kozlov (both Dynamo Moscow), Andrei Yeschenko (Anzhi Makhachkala), Dmitry Kombarov (Spartak Moscow), Andrei Semenov (Terek Grozny)
Midfielders: Igor Denisov, Yury Zhirkov (both Dynamo Moscow), Alan Dzagoev (CSKA Moscow), Roman Shirokov (FC Krasnodar), Denis Glushakov (Spartak Moscow), Viktor Faizulin, Oleg Shatov (both Zenit St Petersburg)
Forwards: Alexander Kerzhakov (Zenit St Petersburg), Alexei Ionov, Alexander Kokorin (both Dynamo Moscow), Maxim Kanunnikov (Amkar Perm), Alexander Samedov (Lokomotiv Moscow)
* Squad lists are only official once they have been confirmed and published by FIFA on 5 June at 12:00 CET.

Many in Grand Isle leery of Feinberg's recovery claims
GRAND ISLE - People on Grand Isle are still waiting for their BP checks to come in. They are leery of claims administrator Ken Feinberg's claim that the recovery process will be over in three years.
Sarah's Restaurant on the island has lost more than $150,000, but has only gotten a check for about $10,000, said Roxie Ray, a waitress there.
"It was like a slap in the face," Ray said. Sometimes, she goes home with just $20 in her pocket for a day's work, because the owner just cannot afford to pay her after writing checks for bills.
Ray believes it'll be more than three years before she sees people return to the island for vacations.
One boat lift businessman eating at the restaurant said he'd lost more than $250,000, but has not yet even gotten a nickel from BP.
"It makes me very bitter," he said, referring to one company he heard had already gotten $10 million.

Bobby Byrnes irons out surf lifesaving rivals
- From: Mercury
- March 10, 2014
TEENAGE sensation Bobby Byrnes is the king of Tasmanian surf lifesaving after a thrilling victory in the state ironman championship at Carlton Park yesterday.
Byrnes, an 18-year-old fitness machine who is training to be a chef, proved unstoppable on his home beach.
To make it even better, his training partner Allie Britton, 22, also of Carlton Park, blew away the field in the women's ironman race making it a clean sweep for the host club at the Tasmanian surf lifesaving championships.
It was 12 minutes Byrnes will never forget.
"I've finished third for the past two years so it's great to get one," he said.
The quality field set off on surf skis in a thrashing of paddles, and Devonport's Simon Murphy established his place at the front as they rounded the cans for the first time.
Murphy held a 30-metre lead going into the board paddle, but he was mown down by Devonport teammate Hamish Chapman, who was crowned state board champion only an hour earlier, and Byrnes, at the changeover for the swim home.
"The swim is my strongest leg so I knew if I could stay with them on the board I would be a chance," Byrnes said.
Chapman had other ideas. He emerged from the surf with a slight edge after the swim, but Byrnes scorched down the beach to the finish line to win by seconds.
"I live over there on that hill, so to win on my home beach in front of everyone, it's awesome," Byrnes said.
It was the third time in four years that Britton, a 21-year-old personal trainer, had won the ironwoman crown.
"It was great, especially to win on my home beach, and it was nice to see Bobby win his title," she said. "I knew I had to stick with them on the craft and bring it home in the swim."
Burnie paddler Sam Norton, 24-year-old relief teacher, won his eighth consecutive men's ski title, bringing it home on a one-foot wave as opposed to the green monsters he encounters at training on the edge of Bass Strait.
"You'd think it would be easier because it was flat, but I had to work really hard right up to the end," he said.
Norton and half of the men's field are off to the Australian championships in Perth in two weeks.
"The ski is the event we do best and nearly every year someone from the state gets a medal at nationals," he said.
The women's ski came down to a battle between Burnie teammates Georgia Laird, 20, and Kirby Randall, 22.
It was so close it had to be decided by a photograph – Laird by 5cm and Britton a distant third.
"I can't stop shaking," Laird said. "Kirby and I have been racing very closely all through the season and it didn't really mater who won because we're both from Burnie and it's great we could both be up there."
Randall thinks she is jinxed.
"It's the third year in a row I've been beaten by nothing, so I'm seriously starting to think I'm cursed'" she said. "It's hard to take, but I'm kind of glad it was Georgia and no one else."
Carlton Park won the men's open surfboat over Burnie A and Burnie B, and Carlton Park made it a club double by winning the women's surfboat over Clifton Beach and Burnie.

Bonneville County Joint School District 93 in Idaho Falls, Idaho, plans to implement a program wherein adult volunteers will ride on buses to monitor student behavior.
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho — Bonneville County Joint School District (JSD) 93 is taking a comprehensive approach to reducing instances of bullying and other unwanted behavior on its school buses by implementing an effort where students are monitored by adult volunteers riding the buses and rewarded for good behavior.
The district has been working on anti-bullying initiatives for the past several years, first installing digital surveillance cameras inside the school buses five years ago.
Guy Bliesner, health, safety and security coordinator for Bonneville County JSD 93, told SBF in an interview that bullying decreased somewhat once cameras were inside the buses, and the video is helpful in making disciplinary determinations and acting on bad behavior, but it hasn't deterred bullying as much as district officials hoped it would.
He added that many of the district's middle school bus riders use extremely offensive language that's generally sexually charged.
To address these issues, Bliesner and Transportation Manager Karen Judy met with the district's superintendent and parent teacher organization presidents to discuss their idea of having adult volunteers ride on some of the district's buses.
"I'd been riding our buses and we'd been using video to review the buses — there's a marked difference between student behavior when there's another set of eyes and ears on the bus — not just me, but any other adult on these buses," Bliesner said. "If we can couple that with positive behavioral reinforcement, we think we can have a marked effect on the incident level that we're experiencing."
Officials have been working through the district's parent teacher organizations, soliciting volunteers in the same way that classroom volunteers are solicited. Bliesner noted that they are also looking at some retirement organizations within the community to widen their volunteer scope.
So far, the program has been well received, with 35 to 40 people expressing interest in serving as monitors. Those who are selected will undergo a standard screening process, which involves a background check per Idaho's statutory requirement for school-based volunteers; Bliesner said Bonneville County JSD 93's human resources department will oversee the screening process.
The district's transportation department will be responsible for deciding what volunteers ride on routes.
"There won't be a volunteer on every bus on every route — that's not a realistic expectation," Bliesner said. "A lot will depend on the volunteers' availability. We want to spread them as evenly as possible so that we get a good snapshot of what's taking place in the morning and in the afternoon."
He added that the volunteers will not be expected to intervene if problems occur, and they won't be expected to discipline students. They will have a clipboard so that they can take note of inappropriate behavior, which will be shared with transportation personnel.
The volunteers will also have "bus bucks" that they can give to students who are behaving well during the bus ride. Bus bucks are a coupon that looks like money, and they are part of the positive behavior reinforcement component of the adult bus rider volunteer effort.
Students who receive bus bucks can redeem them for prizes, such as T-shirts and water bottles. Older kids can put their bus bucks in a once-a-month drawing for iPods, iPads, etc. (Bliesner said district officials approached the school board to obtain funding for the higher-end bus bucks prizes.)
"We're going to reward the behaviors we want, which will encourage those behaviors, and we're trying as much as possible to put a very consistent approach toward disciplinary actions based on video evidence," he said.
Bliesner hopes to launch a pilot program within the next few weeks with adult volunteers on several routes.
"I'd like to pilot it on routes that we've looked at before," he said. "If things go well, we'd like to fully implement the program for the next school year."

Lafayette agencies told to look for cuts
LAFAYETTE - Lafayette city-parish department heads are being asked to comb their budgets for cuts as the administration prepares to trim at least $5 million from next year's budget.
City-Parish Chief Administrative Officer Dee Stanley says the administration is just beginning to prepare the proposed budget, but under a best-case scenario, $5 million in cuts will be needed to bring expenses in line with revenue.
Stanley said department heads have been asked to search out reductions because they should have a better handle on what can be sacrificed and what cannot within their own departments.
He said no specific cuts have been identified.

DENVER - CU Denver moved up two spots this year in the rankings -- from 20 to 18 -- for the number of graduate school volunteers signing on with the Peace Corps.
Currently there are 11 CU Denver graduate students serving overseas with the Peace Corps. The University of Florida holds the top spot in the graduate school category this year with 30 currently-serving volunteers holding master's degrees from the school. In the large school undergraduate category, the University of Colorado Boulder, ranked at the top with 112 undergraduate alumni currently serving as Peace Corps volunteers overseas.
"Over the past few years we've seen a steady increase across the state from people showing more interest in Peace Corps service," said Mike McKay, Southwest Regional Peace Corps manager. "This year, several Colorado colleges and universities ranked among the top schools. CU Denver's rank is significant because there were over 500 graduate schools rated in this category."
"Here in the CU Denver Experiential Learning Center, we work with students to determine how the Peace Corps fits with their academic and career goals," said Director Tony R. Smith, CU Denver Experiential Learning Center.
"The Peace Corps wants volunteers who are committed to a challenging overseas experience. Therefore, the application process is rigorous to allow for reflection, and it is multi-faceted to ensure commitment," Smith said. "We advise the student on how to plan for this process in connection with academic and experiential learning experiences." The Peace Corps experience will more likely occur after the student graduates.
"Overall, Peace Corps is an amazing experience that broadens the perspective of each participant," Smith said.
Since 1961 when the Peace Corps was created by President John F. Kennedy's executive order, more than 200,000 Americans have served in 139 host countries. Peace Corps volunteers must be U.S. citizens and at least 18 years of age. Peace Corps service is a 27-month commitment, and the agency's mission is to promote world peace and friendship and a better understanding between Americans and people of other countries.

HARRISBURG - Pennsylvania's governor says an overhaul of public pensions would make him "much, much, much, much, much more open" to the possibility of raising taxes to balance the state budget.
Republican Gov. Tom Corbett told The Associated Press on Thursday that he also won't consider a tax on Marcellus Shale natural gas extraction without changes to the state-owned liquor system.
Corbett says budget talks are about 30 percent done, with four days remaining until the state government's new fiscal year begins.
The state House passed a budget Wednesday night, but Corbett says the final product will look much different.
He says the pension issue isn't going away, and policy makers need to make changes to relieve the burden on taxpayers.
