Cross Lanes artist
WHEELING, W.Va. -- Jerre Watkins, of Cross Lanes, is a featured artist in March at Artworks Around Town, 2200 Market St., Center Market in Wheeling.
Watkins has a master's degree in fine arts, painting, from Marshall University. She works in watercolor and in varied and mixed media. She paints a variety of subject matter and style from realism to total abstraction.

She teaches workshops each year at Cedar Lakes in Ripley. And she has won awards at several shows, including Louisiana Watercolor Encounter, Allied Artists of West Virginia and Tri State Art Association. Her entry won Best of Show in the 2011 West Virginia Watercolor Society exhibit at the Parkersburg Art Center.

Cornstalk talk
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Douglas McClure Wood will present "The Roots of Un-civil War: The 250th Anniversary of Cornstalk's Campaign" at 6 p.m. March 14 in the Archives and History Library at the Culture Center. The program is free.
Wood will focus on the Shawnee warrior's 1763 campaign in the context of the larger war waged by Pontiac against the British colonies. Cornstalk was considered a brilliant military strategist whose coalition-building efforts, strategic planning, campaign coordination and battle tactics were followed 50 years later by another Shawnee, Tecumseh.
In response to Cornstalk's warfare, the Virginia frontiersmen learned to fight more like the Indians, skills that became useful in subsequent wars, including the Civil War.
Wood has researched 18th-century middle Appalachian cultures, with a particular focus on American Indian cultures of the Ohio Valley region. He also is a living-history character with the Humanities Council's History Alive! program, currently portraying Ostenaco, a Cherokee military leader who fought for three years against the French during the French and Indian War.
Participants are encouraged to register for the lecture by contacting Bobby Taylor, library manager, at email@example.com or at 304-558-0230, ext. 163.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
MediaInfo states video is Bottom Filed First when it is actually Top Field First
Most of such comments come from ProRes having displayed and stored order inverted, for a reason I ignore.
MediaInfo shows how displayed order is wanted by the container, and sometimes the container says that stored order is TFF and displayed order is BFF ('fiel' atom in QuickTime header).
In that case, display of MediaInfo is:
Meaning that displayed order is BFF but raw stream stored order is TFF. Some player do not obey the inversion metadata from the QuickTime container so you can sometimes see TFF.
Update: There is a discussion about a technical report and the output may change in the future

If you don't want to autorize anonymous statistics, uncheck the "Check for newest version" checkbox.
In the SourceForge repository, there are multiple filenames. Which one should I download?
It depends on what you require:
After this, you must select your operating system:
And your platform:
In the SourceForge repository, there are multiple file versions. Which one should I download?
Always the latest version, except if:
Why is format not supported?
First, maybe I don't have specifications for it.
If you have documentation about the format, please contact me. Second, maybe I don't have the time on free support for implementing it.
If you desire to accelerate the development, don't hesitate to contact me for a quotation.
Really, format should be supported because a motive
I have no problem for accepting a (good) patch for the support of format, don't hesitate to propose a patch.
You are not a programmer? If you really think that a motive is true, I guess you'll have no problem for finding someone else ready for implementing this feature if you think that the rate of the main developer (see "Why is format not supported?", but you already asked for the quotation, right?) is too high.
You don't succeed to find the funds for the development? Maybe it is because a motive is not true...
Note: on my side I think that you should work for me for free, this product needs you, you should be part of the project. If you are not ready to work for me for free, please don't be upset if I don't work for you for free.
A file is not properly detected. What should I do?
Please open a ticket. I'd like a copy of your file.
I would like to have MediaInfo translated into my language. Why don't you translate it into my language?
Because I don't speak your language! ;-)
If you have an hour, you can translate it (in the options dialog box), and send me the file (from ./plugins/ directory). This is not difficult; you only need some knowledge of English.
What's KiB, MiB, GiB?
These are binary prefixes.
For example, 1 KiB is 1024 bytes, 1 KB is 1000 bytes.
The difference is not important with small files (only 2.4% for "K"), but becomes more and more important with bigger numbers (1 GB is only ~0.93 GiB, 1 TB is only 0.90 TiB!).
MediaInfo makes every attempt to be precise and does not tolerate errors of such magnitude when posting numbers even though Microsoft continues to confuse the issue in its operating system.
See the Binary prefix Wikipedia page for more information.
Anyway you can:
Why are there spaces in numbers?
Yes, there is a space in "1 920 pixels" for example.
This is the international standard ("SI style").
This standard is the official one for 96% of the world population (All countries except U.S.A.). I currently don't plan to change this default display although you can:
My question is not here. What should I do?
You might get help on the forums.
MediaInfo GUI
What is the license?
MediaInfoGUI is governed by a BSD-style license.
How do I compile from source?
The source code can be downloaded here.
You need Borland C++ 6 to compile it.
There is a help file to assist in compiling dependencies.
Why isn't there a GUI version of MediaInfo for Linux?
VCL (the graphical library of Borland) is not portable (this is the only one), so I can't adapt the GUI for Linux.
If you know how to program with wxWidgets (a standard graphical library), and are interested in adapting MediaInfo to wxWidgets, then I am interested. Please contact me!
MediaInfo Cmd
What is the license?
MediaInfoCmd is governed by a BSD-style license.
Why aren't there more options for the command line?
I didn't spend much time coding it, due to less interest from users.
You can add a feature request.
How do I compile from source?

What is the license?
MediaInfoDLL is governed by a BSD-style license.
Why doesn't the DLL work with software name?
Maybe the software doesn't support the latest version of the DLL.
How do I import data from your DLL?
Download the DLL package. There are some examples, in many different languages (standard C, standard C++, GCC, MinGW, Borland C++ Builder, Microsoft Visual C++, Microsoft Visual Basic, Microsoft C#, Microsoft J#)
There is also an SDK.
I'd rather have static libraries

Maine lawmakers are considering easing rules on the use of restraints and seclusion in Maine schools, just a year after restricting them. Current law says teachers can use these controversial disciplinary techniques only when there is an imminent risk of injury or harm to a student or others inside a school building. But many teachers and principals say the policy goes too far, puts them at greater risk of being assaulted and makes it easier for out-of-control students to disrupt classrooms. Jay Field reports.
The current rules, passed into law by the Legislature last March, grew out of recommendations made by a group of stakeholders, including educators, child advocates and parents. But from the moment the school year began last fall, there were signs that the new policy wasn't working.
Here's a story about a student in the Lewiston public schools, a first grader who began to yell one day after something set him off. Bill Webster, Lewiston's superintendent, told the Legislature's Education Committee what happened next.
"He overturned his chair and made it clear that no one should get near him," Webster said. "Now, prior to this year, the teacher would have engaged him with a loving, firm hold."
The teacher would have led the child away from the other kids and helped the student calm down, before the tantrum got out of hand. But Webster says the teacher worried she'd get in trouble, that the meltdown wasn't yet putting the student, or anyone else, at risk of physical harm.
Soon, though, the tantrum got worse. The student, who goes by the pseudonym Andrew, ransacked the entire room. Webster says the teacher finally felt comfortable restraining Andrew.
"She placed Andrew in a hold. He then seemed to begin to calm down. At this point, Andrew slammed his head up and back, instantly breaking the teacher's nose. The teacher and principal agree that had Andrew been restrained early on, the situation would have de-escalated quickly," Webster said.
"How many times in a day is this interruption allowed?" asked Lois Kilby-Chesley, president of the Maine Education Association, the union representing the state's teachers. "We are hearing that in some classrooms this happens multiple times a day."
Kilby-Chesly says teachers complain they no longer have the authority to step in, control thier classrooms and prevent the constant disruptions to learning. And even when it seems appropriate to use restraint or seclusion, teachers are telling the union they're reluctant to do so.
"Educators tell us of administrators passing information to them, stating that phyically intervening with a child will put their job at risk and may put them in a position of being sued by a parent," she said.
A bill before the Legislature, LD 243, is designed to offer more clarity by allowing the use of restraint or seclusion to prevent significant property damage, and disruption of the educational environment. Parents could also authorize school staff to use these techniques with their kids.
But supporters of the current, more restrictive law, say reversing course would be unwise. Deb Davis is a parent and member of the stakeholder group that helped draft the existing law on restraints and seclusion.
"LD 243 doesn't protect the safety and well-being of all individuals in schools because it allows more restraint and creates more risk for trauma, or risk of loss of life," Davis said.
The U.S. Department of Education has discouraged school districts across the country from using restraints and seclusion on students. Data, released last year by the department's office for civil rights, showed that in a sampling of more that 72,000 schools, restraints were used disproportionately on students with disabilities.
Supporters of the current law in Maine say the way to avoid this is to make sure that educators are adaquately trained in how to apply the new rules. Barbara Gunn runs the Southern Penobscot Regional Program, a treatment program for kids with special needs, and is a member of the stakeholder group. Gunn says the state has dropped the ball on training.
"I don't believe there has been enough training and technical assitance," she said. "There must be more, especially since training done for districts has contained innaccurate information about the Chapter 33 rules."
Gunn says lawmakers, and the Maine Department of Education, should at least be willing to provide more extensive training before they go ahead and toss out the existing law. In the interest of full disclosure, the Maine Education Association represents reporters and some other employees at the Maine Public Broadcasting Network.

Prop 8: The Musical
Jim Burroway
December 6th, 2008
In case you haven't seen it, here's a musical number by Marc Shaiman, featuring Jack Black and Neil Patrick Harris:
According to the New York Times:
On Nov. 18, Mr. Shaiman recalled, he sat down at his piano in his home in Los Angeles and wrote "Prop 8." On Nov. 19 and 20 he cast the video, recruiting Jack Black to play a particularly flippant Jesus Christ and Adam Shankman (the director and choreographer of the "Hairspray" movie musical) to direct it. The video was shot in one day at a magic store in Santa Monica, and mixed and edited after the Thanksgiving holiday at a pace that Mr. Shaiman found astounding. "It's like 'Saturday Night Live,' only without the money," he said. "But also without the restrictions."
At least one humor-challenged Christian group headed by Gary Cass, noted Christian Reconstructionist and former head of D. James Kennedy's now-defunct Center for Reclaiming America for Christ, has demanded an apology.

Smoke 2015 Tutorial: 3D Compositing in ConnectFX
Smoke 2015 Tutorial: 3D Compositing in the Timeline - 3 Part video tutorial with a running time of 40 minutes
'Smoke Essentials' by Alexis Van Hurkman Now Available!
Up to 20% off new commercial seats of Smoke 2013 if you buy before October 25 2013! Get all the details here: http://autode.sk/173u3Zr
Smoke 2013 Ext 1 Demos based on the short film named Fit It In Post created by Jeremy Hunt.
This is a video tutorial for Smoke 2013 Ext 1 focusing on one shot from a short film named "Fit It In Post" created by Jeremy Hunt. In this shot a man is walking through an alley when a giant 3D text object appears in front of him and he collides with the floating text. Some of the workflows and tools covered are 3D composting, keying, masking, tracking, 3D text, lighting, shadows and painting. The total running time is 1 hour and 45 minutes. I hope you find it helpful. I you want to view the full film Fix It In Post I have included the video at the bottom of the tutorial videos.
Rob O'Neill and Nicky Liddell will show how the powerful creative tool set of Autodesk Smoke 2013 was used to finish budget-conscious retail commercials for Opel and Bayer.
This is a video tutorial focusing on short cuts and hot keys used while creating a rough cut and creative edit in Smoke 2013. Using menus and buttons to perform edits, trims, etc works but I feel it is a slow workflow and decreases your creative flow while you are trying to tell your story with your creative edit. Knowing the short cuts and performing dynamic edits will make you a more efficient editor. I also discuss workflow and tips about Smoke 2013 and it's UI. The entire duration of the tutorial is about 1 1/2 hours but I have broken the tutorial into 12 videos with the longest video being 13 minutes. I recommend watching all of them in a row if possible and then later revisiting them as needed. Just for reference I was using Smoke 2013 Pre-Release 5 during the capturing of this tutorial. I hope you enjoy them and learn from them. Ken LaRue
IBC 2012 was a great success for Autodesk and Smoke 2013 was a big hit at the convention and at the SuperMeet Sunday Night. Plus I have a challenge for you. If you want to learn how to use Smoke to pull a great key even from some really bad green screen footage here is a way to do just that and have fun! Check out the Scruffy Smoke challenge.

Bouncer is a real time statistics and security engine for PHP applications.
Bouncer is designed to run when your PHP request starts. Everything that can be cached is cached, so there should not be any performance issue. Actually, your application is supposed to run faster with it, because it doesn't needs to serve junk traffic anymore.
How does it operate?
- It first analyse what the agent claim to be, if it's a browser, a bot, which browser, which version. At the same time, it also compute an unique fingerprint based on the User-Agent and several common HTTP headers.
- After that, it scores the agent, comparing what it claim to be, with how it's supposed to act. For example, Firefox is supposed to send several HTTP headers, Googlebot is supposed to operate from given IP adresses. It also compare the agent fingerprint with a local database, filled with thousand fingerprints of known, good, bad and suspicious agents.
- Depending the score, nothing happen (it's a good guy), the agent is throttled (we're not sure) or the agent is blocked (definitely a bad ass).
Practically, 99% of known web junk is blocked efficiently, without giving your data to anyone. Technically, ou'll barely need other anti-spam measures, but that's not a reason to stop using them.
Dashboard Demo
Try some sample queries: good browsers only, robots only, blocked agents, Mac OS X / Firefox from France
An advanced dashboard with more data is also available.
- Download the Bouncer library. Download also the Rediska library if you want to use the redis backend (recommended).
Add the Bouncer code early in your PHP code:
<?php require_once('Bouncer/Bouncer.php'); Bouncer::run(array('backend' => 'redis', 'namespaces' => array('default'))); ?>
- In a protected area, you can display the dashboard to visualize what is happening:
<?php require_once('Bouncer/Bouncer.php'); Bouncer::stats(array('backend' => 'redis', 'namespace' => 'default')); ?>
Fork me on Github baby!
Bouncer is proudly inspired/derived from the BBClone and Bad Behavior projects.

- Abstract
- The structure of triamminetriaquocobalt(III) perchlorate has been determined by the Patterson method. It crystallizes in the cubic space group Pm3 with a unit cell dimengon of a = 11.213(2)Å. The structure was refined to final weighted and unweighted R factors of 0.062 and 0.082, respectively. The two independent cobalt centers were found to exhibit different degrees of disorder. One center appears to have a meridional distribution of ligands while it is not possible to determine whether the distribution about the second cobalt center is meridional or facial. The three independent perchlorate groups are also disordered.

Its an experimental file mainly just to try out the Sun bow archer. She seems to be pretty good. Though only problem is that her ability basically costs 2 sp to use compared to powercreeping abilities that only cost 1 sp to use *coughrednoobslashcough* But another than that she's pretty good.
Cuz she's rng 3 making you having to decide whether to put her in row 2 or 3 depending on your opponent if you're facing who's likely to bust through your front row by sneezing then you might wanna put her at row 3 for a chance of hitting back, otherwise, row 2's the best place for her is what it seems like.
Her average damage seems to be like 35-55 damage depend if your sphere's at 3 plus random field buffs. 35 is without supporting buffs meaning it will just harpoon most of the units out there's hp into half. Which is the majority of the lvl 4s gowen lvl 4s a good gowen lvl 4 is a dead gowen lvl 4.
And about Shathia I think she's just doomed to mediocrity U either attack for whatever wounding damage or focus to pull off a start skill in next turn for 40 damage. You have to plan ahead and hope whatever ss/grim don't harm u too badly and have to anticipate whether you can tolerate her dying or not at agi 1 eitherway, she's likely to die anyways so its better to go for blinding strike's duel. To make a unit dead in next turn so it can't act in the next turn putting less pressure on your field. Which seems to be her job, other than being lulzy via snaf buffs. I got her up to 160 atk so yeah..
And about defensive manuvers, how come I don't see people using it very much. It looks good.
Here the duel url.

We want to warn you about a scam. People are stopping by homes in our area, claiming to work alongside Colorado Springs Utilities. But we checked, and Springs Utilities says it's not true.
"You never know who's gonna be knocking and what they might want," said Becky Huffine.
Some homeowners on the southwest side of Colorado Springs are on guard after hearing that scammers have been knocking on their neighbor's doors.
"I keep my dog by my side when I respond and I don't let anyone in the house," said Paul Bertrand
We're told police were walking in the neighborhood claiming to be a construction company that works with Colorado Springs Utilities.
They wanted to get inside and give a free home evaluation in order to make homes more energy efficient. That way homeowners can get more rebates with CSU.
But officials tell us they won't come to your house and suggest upgrades like that without you requesting it first.
"I don't really trust people that come to me, I need to go to them," said Huffine.
A good rule of thumb CSU says to follow, but one that Huffine learned the hard way. She almost fell for a similar scam years ago when someone claimed to be with Utilities.
"That's why I allowed them to look at the house, and then after a while I was like 'no, you are not gonna be drilling holes in my home,'" said Huffine.
Her advice to neighbors: "If you don't know them and if it's something you didn't call and ask for, then I wouldn't give them the time of day."
Colorado Springs Utilities wants you to know they won't come to your home uninvited, except for meter readings. They suggest you don't let anyone claiming to be CSU in your home until you see an ID. If you are worried, call CSU and make sure they should be there.
CSU also wants you to know they've received several reports that scammers are also calling on the phone posing as Springs Utilities. They are asking for hundreds of dollars, like $800, to pay for new meters. They even say you can send a prepaid card to get started.
CSU says don't fall for it; they won't call you asking for money.

When 13-year-old Kitty Mcguire of Troy killed herself in March, the focus immediately turned to the girl's life at school, with bullying as a possible reason for her untimely death. A police investigation ensued. But as Jennifer Mitchell reports, the outcome leaves as many questions as it answers.
Kitty was a sixth-grader at Mount View Middle School in Waldo County, and according to published reports, she may have been a victim of bullying and harrassment at school, and on the school bus. Some students had reported to the authorities that she was sometimes teased over her clothes and style.
Family members, such as her uncle and grandparents, further alleged that because Kitty was questioning her sexual identity, she had become the target of repeated harrassment, some of it physical. But the police say if that was the case, there was scant evidence that any such incidents contributed to Kitty's decision to take her own life.
"We weren't really able to come up with anything as far as why, a definitive reason about why it happened," says Jeffrey Trafton, chief deputy with the Waldo County Sheriff's Department.
Trafton says that his officers questioned the school, and the girl's friends and family, and came away with conflicting reports about what the school district had recognized as incidents of "teasing."
"Some of the folks that the detectives interviewed didn't think that bullying was an issue at all, and others did," he says. "And so, without being able to talk with her, and find out exactly from her how it was affecting her, we weren't able to make any kind of definitive determination."
And he says in the 24 hours prior to Kitty's suicide, no one admitted to having seen the girl in distress, or noticed anything unusual or unhappy in her demeanor. Bullying, he says, can be very difficult for law enforcement to prove, because every witness has a different idea of what bullying is, and what it is not.
Phone calls to the family and RSU 3 school district were not returned by air time. But according to a report in the Bangor Daily News, some members of the Mcguire family are not satisfied with the conclusions drawn by the police report.
They say they remain convinced that schoolyard bullying was a factor in Kitty Mcguire's death, and they're hoping that the school's ongoing internal investigation turns up something more conclusive.

Youths in the country have been challenged to understand their problems well and inform government leaders, policy and decision makers so that they can be addressed.
This was said in Dar es Salaam yesterday by Germany Foundation for World Population Project Officer Elinami Mungure during a workshop on advocacy and resource mobilisation as part of the implementation of the East African Community (EAC) investment in youth projects.
The workshop drew participants from the youth servicing in civil society organisations from both Tanzania mainland and Zanzibar.
Mungure said youth problems were dynamic but people at the decision making level were not updated frequently on youth struggles, as a result their problems failed to be addressed properly.
"If the youth are well informed about their problems they can communicate correctly to public leaders, who will be able to address their problems properly," Mungure said.
Mungure, however, noted that the workshop would enable the youth to build capacity on sexual reproductive health rights and access better services.
Commenting on the project, Mungure said a three-year project funded by the European Commission was being implemented in five East African countries.
He said the objective of the project was to contribute to the improvement of the youth and ultimately the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) 3, 5 and 6, promoting a holistic approach in line with the principles of the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) and the ICPD+5 Programme of Action.
"The project also aims at building individual competences, collective capabilities and overall capacity of adolescent and youth serving CSOs necessary to advocate effectively the development and implementation of adolescent and youth sensitive policies, programmes and budgets," he said.
The project is implemented in partnership with DSW, the EAC and the Ministry of Health.
One of the participants, Donald Donald, from Iringa based Tanzania Rural Women and Children Development Foundation said the workshop would help the youth build capacity on sexual reproductive health rights.
Another participant, Nasra Ishek Yusuf, from Zanzibar Nurses Association said the workshop was crucial to her because it would help her educate other young people about sexual reproductive health.
She said in Zanzibar sexual reproductive health was poorly implemented due to traditions and customers, as a result most young people were denied their basic rights such as accessing sexual reproductive health services.
She said there was no transparency between parents and their children and so the latter failed to tell them about sexual reproductive health and since the youth grew up uninformed they ended up getting unwanted pregnancies and other related complications.

Serves 8
This hearty fish stew is a treasure from the South of France. It takes an afternoon to make, but it's a showstopping all-in-one meal that's absolutely worth the effort.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 450°F. Arrange the baguette rounds on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake until crisp and lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Turn off the oven, open the door partially, and let the croutons cool and finish drying in the oven. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
Put the mussels and 1 cup of water in a 4- to 5-quart pot. Cover, bring to a boil over high heat, and cook until all the mussels have opened, about 2 minutes. Set a strainer over a small bowl. Shuck the mussels into the strainer, discarding the shells. Press on the mussels to squeeze out any remaining liquid;discard the solids. Strain the mussel-cooking liquid into the bowl and set aside.
Heat the oil in a wide 8- to 10-quart pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not colored, about 8 minutes. Add the fennel, leeks, and celery and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until completely soft but not colored, about 20 minutes.
While the vegetables cook, use a chef's knife or kitchen scissors to cut the fish skeletons into 4- to 5-inch pieces. Add the fish skeletons, heads, and trimmings to the pot, along with the tomatoes, parsley, thyme, bay leaves, orange zest, pastis, fennel seeds, peppercorns, 2 tsp. salt, and the reserved mussel liquid. Add enough cold water to just cover the solids when you press them down gently (about 1 quart). Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook, uncovered, until you can easily break the fish parts with a wooden spoon, about 30 minutes. Break apart as many of the fish parts as you can with the spoon.
Put a food mill over a large bowl and, working in batches, grind the cooked broth ingredients, discarding the solids left in the food mill between batches. Clean the pot and put a fine strainer over it. Working in batches, strain the broth, pushing hard on the solids with a ladle to squeeze out all the liquid, and discarding the solids between batches.
Crumble the saffron into the broth and bring to a boil to infuse the saffron. Turn off the heat and use an immersion blender to emulsify the broth, or whisk vigorously. Season to taste with salt. Set aside. A thin, greasy skin will form on top of the broth as it sits—skim it off before cooking the potatoes.
While the broth cooks, cut the fish fillets so you have 8 pieces of each type of fish. Use a scale; each piece should be about 1-3/4 oz. (If you have more than 14 oz. of any type of fish, trim off the thinner parts—the tail pieces and belly flaps—first and add them to the fish broth.) Put the fish in a large baking dish, keeping the same types of fish together (so you can keep track of each type).
Marinate the fish 45 minutes before you plan to finish the stew: Drizzle the fish with the pastis and sprinkle with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Turn the fish to coat evenly, still keeping the same types of fish together. Let the fish marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes; then let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking.
Put the potatoes in a 4- to 5-quart pot. Add enough of the fish broth to cover completely, about 3 cups. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat, and simmer until slightly undercooked and still a little firm in the centers, about 8 minutes. Set aside off the heat—the potatoes will finish cooking in the hot broth.
In a mortar, mash the garlic and 1/4 tsp. each salt and cayenne with a pestle. Mash in the breadcrumbs and broth. Mash in the potato. Mash in the oil a little at a time. The rouille should be fairly thick and spreadable. Don't overmash, or it will get gummy. Season to taste with more salt and cayenne; it should be pleasantly spicy. (Alternatively, mash the garlic and salt to a paste on a cutting board with the side of a chef's knife. Transfer the paste to a bowl and use a fork to mash in the remaining ingredients. Don't use a food processor, because it makes a gummy rouille.)
Warm 8 wide, shallow soup bowls and a sauce pitcher in a low oven. Top 16 of the croutons with a thin layer of the rouille (you won't use it all). Transfer the remaining rouille and croutons to 2 bowls to pass at the table.
Reheat the potatoes in their broth, but do not boil, or they will break apart. Meanwhile, bring the large pot of fish broth to a brisk simmer over medium-high heat. Use a slotted spatula to divide the potatoes among the warm serving bowls. Add the broth remaining from the potatoes to the large pot of fish broth and return to a brisk simmer.
Add the thicker pieces of fish to the simmering broth and then add the thinner pieces. If possible, try to keep the same types of fish together for easier plating. Poach until the thinner pieces are just cooked through, about 6 minutes.While the fish poaches, the broth should stay at a bare simmer; adjust the heat as necessary. Working quickly, use the slotted spatula to distribute the thinner pieces of fish, skin side up, among the bowls. Check to make sure the thicker pieces are cooked through and distribute them among the bowls. Each serving should get 4 types of fish.
Return the broth to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat and use an immersion blender or whisk to emulsify the broth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Ladle a generous amount of broth over each serving of fish. Transfer any remaining broth to the warm pitcher.
Nestle 2 rouille-topped croutons in each serving bowl and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately, passing the remaining croutons, rouille, and broth at the table.
You can toast the croutons a day ahead, but the other components are best eaten the day they're made.
For the full Marseilles experience, serve with a dry rosé from Provence and a tangy lemon tart for dessert.

The Hachura is a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto 2 that can only be found in the Residential District of Anywhere City. It gives a rocket launcher when crushed. Although its internal name (
STRIPETB) does not indicate any real-life inspiration, the car can be described as sharing similarities to the Facel Vega HK500.
In the beta version of Grand Theft Auto III, the Idaho was originally called the "Hachura". The "Hachura" can still be seen in the game, but only as a rusty/burnt out wreck.
- In the beta version of Grand Theft Auto III the front resembles a Sabre.

News and Recent Developments
- June 2011 The team of the Association pour le Développement de l'Energie Solaire (ADES) in Madagascar gathered last Saturday in Baar to unpack a novel solar cooker at the anniversary celebration of ADES. The solar box cooker comes with built-in photo cells. "This will make a sensation," says Regula Ochsner, founder of ADES. Especially valuable, is that the know-how transfer has gone the other way around for once: Madagascar supplies to Europe. Regula was enthusiastic but also a bit scared before the expected rush to the newest generation of solar cookers: "Can we handle the logistics as well?" This is the first time the latest prototype solar cooker has been presented to the general public, and it has happened in Madagascar. The work of ADES and its founder, Regula Ochsner from Ottenbach have received numerous awards, including the Swiss Solar Prize (2007), the Doron Prize (2008) or the price of the Brandenberger Foundation. The 10-year anniversary provides an opportunity to look back. Renewable energies point to the future. The event is even more poignant this year, in light of the tragedy in Fukushima. The non-profit organization has been committed to ADES in Madagascar for the past ten years to preserve the unique flora and fauna and promote sustainable cooking methods. In 2001, under the scorching sun in Madagascar, and under a party tent, the first solar cooker assembled. Today ADES employs around a staff of sixty. Countries with the use of solar and energy-saving stoves have already saved around 30,000 hectares of dry forest from logging. ADES first introduced solar cookers in order to reduce the deforestation of the dry forests, but now, in conjunction with solar cookers use, energy-efficient stoves have helped reduce wood consumption by up to 65%. See photos of the celebration at: ADES 10-year anniversary celebration, 25th June 2011
- December 2010: Carbon offset foundation partners with solar cooking project in Madagascar. The Swiss non-profit foundation, MyClimate, is a leader when it comes to voluntary carbon offsetting measures. They have recently partnered with Association pour le Développement de l'Energie Solaire (ADES), another Swiss non-profit, that manufactures and distributes solar cookers in Madagascar. The CO2 offsetting mechanism offered by MyClimate will enable the expansion of the initial ADES project, and growth into other provinces of Madagascar. Their projection over the next seven years, is to distribute up to 44,000 solar cookers and 8,600 energy-efficient supplementary cookers to realize a reduction of up to 190,000 tons of CO2.
- August 2010: John Root, an energy services advisor, conducted a workshop in Madagascar in a well-documented slide series of the workshop showing each phase of the cooker construction. Solar cooker workshop
- July 2010: Zahana solar cooking activities for July 2010
- April 2010: Since 2001, the Association pour le Développement de l'Energie Solaire (ADES) has been making and selling solar cookers in the southwestern part of Madagascar, providing much-needed cooking alternatives as well as employment for over 30 local carpenters and trainers. In 2003, ADES built its first permanent solar cooker construction workshop in Tulear. A second construction workshop was established in Ejeda in 2006, followed in 2008 by a workshop in Morondava. Each of these regional centers also has sales and demonstration offices. Future plans include development of a fourth regional center in Anosy or Antandroy, and the creation of two or three local branches within each region to reduce transportation distances and increase outreach capacity. According to ADES, southwestern Madagascar experiences about 330 sunny days per year and is a nearly ideal region for solar cooking. However, per capita income in Madagascar is only about $400 per year, making it difficult for families to afford solar cookers and spend their meager income on a technology they are not familiar with. Rising firewood and charcoal costs over the past few years are making solar cookers comparatively more affordable, but still out of reach for many. Subsidies have mostly come from donors in Switzerland and a handful of awards. The Madagascar government has provided some additional support, partnering with ADES to promote renewable energy in Tulear. Hand-crafted wooden solar box cookers, produced locally for upwards of $200 each, are sold at a subsidized price of just over $20. These cookers reach temperatures of up to 150°C, and are commonly used to cook rice, various root vegetables, meat, fish, bread, and cakes. Metal parabolic solar cookers are assembled locally for about $160 each, from aluminum and steel parts made by another local organization at an already subsidized price. The parabolic cookers are then sold at a subsidized price of about $50. These cookers reach even higher temperatures, but require stirring of food and more frequent adjustments to track the sun. They are particularly useful for frying, and can work in a complementary fashion with solar box cookers. Both cookers come with 7-year warranties. By the end of 2009, ADES had sold 4,640 solar cookers. It hopes to ramp up its outreach and sales capacity with funding from carbon credit offsets.
- July 2007: This past March in Paris, France, Regula Ochsner received the Yves Rocher Foundation's international "Women of the Earth" award for her work promoting solar cookers in Madagascar. The award honors women who lead actions benefiting nature and humanity. The award ceremony was attended by Madame Nelly Olin, French Minister for the Environment. In 2001 Ochsner founded the Association pour le Développement de l'Energie Solaire Suisse – Madagascar (ADES) to help combat rampant deforestation. Ochsner lived in Madagascar in the early 1970s and was shocked, when she visited in the late 1990s, at the amount of deforestation that had occurred in a period of just 25 years. (Madagascan families use about 100 kilograms of charcoal on a monthly basis, amounting to one-sixth of an average monthly salary.) Ochsner researched cooking alternatives that would reduce firewood and charcoal use, and discovered solar cookers. Madagascar, especially in the south of the country, has close to ideal conditions for the use of solar energy. Ochsner initiated production of solar box cookers by local carpenters in 2001, followed by distribution and sales. In 2003 ADES built a more permanent carpentry workshop in Tulear and another in Ejeda in 2006. ADES currently provides employment to 13 carpenters and trainers. The teaching of the population to use solar cookers is an important part of ADES' work. Regular demonstrations on how to use the solar cooker take place. The interest level of the population is very high. Over 1500 solar cookers have been sold thus far. A survey of the usage of the solar cookers conducted by two German students in 2004 showed that 75% of the solar cookers were used regularly. Ochsner plans to invest the prize money of 10000 euro in a further solar cooker pilot project in the south of Madagascar. Future plans include development of regional centers in Morondava and Fort Dauphin.

The History of Solar Cooking in Madagascar
Madagascar, with its unique biological diversity, has attracted the attention of environmentalists from around the world to its rescue. It is somewhat surprising then to learn that little has been done to curtail the use of fuelwood as the major cooking energy for the population. Around one-fifth of the island's land has forest cover, which is diminishing at nearly 1% annually (FAO, 2003). A representative of the country, speaking at the Varese meeting in 1999, spoke of solar experimentation in the 1970s, revived in the 90s as deforestation worsened, but with little progress in mass implementation. The initial introduction was principally of parabolics, but later the 'breadbox" model was introduced and enthusiastically endorsed. The report called on governments, non-governmental organizations, and businesses to attempt to establish a strong national program, urging that international research and development be done cooperatively and shared widely with smaller nations.
One program operating in Madagascar is run by the medical arm (SALFA) of the Malagasy Lutheran Church. SALFA runs 25 hospitals throughout the country. Dr. Stanley Quanback and his wife, medical missionaries in the country, initiated the project and helped to develop collaboration with another medical organization, Pathologists Overseas. Teaching materials and consultation were provided to the volunteers by California volunteer, Alice Hoenecke, sociologist Agnes Rasamimampianina , and nutritionist Sosanna Suzanne, the latter two employees of SALFA and citizens of the country.
The group began by training women in one village in a semiarid region of the country. The trainees were hospital staff members and members of a churchwomen's organization. As stated above, fuelwood was become very scarce and expensive. Miss Sosanna directs the project, supervising 15 trainers who are working now in 11 villages. Primary health centers are usually the site for training in the use of solar cookers. They estimated, as of 2003, that there were 1,000 users and others begging to have solar cookers made available to them.[1]
Another project currently active in Madagascar is l'Association pour le Développement de l'Energie Solaire (ADES) is an NGO and a non-profit organization that produces solar cookers in Madagascar and supports the use of renewable energy sources. It started in Tuléar in the south of Madagascar in 2001. Local production by local people with local material is part of the ADES philosophy.
Climate, Culture, and Special Considerations
Solar Cookers International has rated Madagascar as the #19 country in the world in terms of solar cooking potential (See: The 25 countries with the most solar cooking potential). The estimated number of people in Madagascar with fuel scarcity but ample sun in 2020 is 3,000,000.

I love these shorts. I am a size 4-6 and the medium is actually quite snug and I actually prefer the larges that I own. But, even with that, if you have the right size they are great for running, lifting, anything!

My fav!
I love these shorts!! Like the zipper pocket in the back. Earlier review did not like the drawstring, however, I need it to keep the shorts in place. Very comfortable training up to 22 miles for my upcoming marathon and will wear them for the race (actually they are the ONLY shorts I run in any more). I am a size 4 and the medium is snug, would not want it smaller.

Great Running Shorts
So far I have worn these shorts twice (on road & trail). When I tried on the shorts they fit great, but the underwear liner had me a bit worried... it felt tight around the leg opening so I thought it would drive me crazy on long distance runs - although I haven't really noticed it yet while running. Definitely saves you from getting a wedgie! Plus the shorts seem "short" for a 4" inseam - however they are very flattering and they never rode up even while trail running. They never hiked up my thighs - which really surprised me. I'm 119lbs and 5"3" and I wear a size small- my thighs are pretty strong for my size - shorts riding up and chaffing is something I always have to be careful of.The waist band is fantastic and very comfortable. My only annoyance is the drawstring. I think I might end up taking mine out. Overall these are solid running shorts. Good fabric and no seams to cause chaffing - awesome pockets.If you are more on the modest side - I recommend looking into the LONG Roga short. Pretty much the same short with 2 extra inches on the inseam and an extra side pocket.

Get an alert when we add new styles of Oiselle! Simply sign up and we'll notify you.
Oiselle™ (pronounced wa-zell) translates to "bird" in French. The founder of Oiselle chose this name to capture that feeling of weightlessness a runner experiences when she hits her stride. To help women achieve that moment more often, Oiselle designed running clothes that would help women feel more comfortable and capable.
Sally Bergesen, the founder and CEO, decided to start her own running clothes business after she went to buy running shorts and couldn't find what she wanted. The running shorts were either unflattering in color or style. Going off of comfort and colors, Oiselle produces running shirts that have an unrestrictive cut and complimentary shades. When you look good, you feel good. And when you feel good, you do better.
With stylish running shirts and running shorts, Oiselle has made amazing strides since its start in 2007. Compression running shorts that have a skirt wrapped around for style are just one of the innovative designs that blends function and flattering so well. Oiselle is built by women runners for women runners to help your feet take flight.

From Joomla! Documentation
The Menu Manager controls the framework, or container of the menu(s) in Joomla!. The actual menu functionality and appearance of a menu is created automatically by Joomla! by triggering a new instance of [mainmenu] when a menu is first created. It is this, together with the menu item(s) selected, that creates the finished menu.
Version Changes
New in Joomla! 1.5:
- Type column
- ID column
Column Headers
- ID. The ID number. This is a unique identification number for this item assigned automatically by Joomla!. It is used to identify the item internally, for example in internal links. You can not change this number.
- Title. The name of the item. For a Menu Item, the Title will display in the Menu. For an Article, Section, or Category, the Title may optionally be displayed on the web page. This entry is required. You can open the item for editing by clicking on the Title.
- Type. The type column in the menu manager will actually be the Unique Name of the menu.
Typical Usage
You can open the Menu Manager by clicking its quick icon in the Control Panel after logging in the administration back-end or you can access it from the Menus -> Menu Manager menu item.
Using the Menu Manager you can create your menus containing your menu items. This screen summarizes the details of the available menus by displaying the number of published/unpublished, trashed menus and the number of the modules.
You can create a new menu by clicking the New toolbar button. You can edit an existing one by selecting it and clicking the Edit button on the toolbar or by clicking its title. When you want to create a copy of a menu just select it and click the Copy toolbar button and the following screen will be displayed:
As you see, the copied menu and its menu items are also listed on this screen.
You should fill in two fields:
- Enter the title in the New Menu Title field.
- Type in the module name in the New Module Name field.
Click the Copy toolbar button to complete the process. If you decide not to create the copy of the menu, then click the Cancel button on the toolbar.
You can remove an unnecessary menu by selecting it and clicking the Delete toolbar button and the following screen will be loaded:
The details are summarized on this screen, so it easier for you to make your decision. Click the Delete toolbar button to complete the process. If you decide not to remove the copy of the menu, then click the Cancel button on the toolbar.
Quick Tips
It is expedient to give a descriptive title for new menus because later you will see it in the Backend Menus menu. It is a good idea to fill in the Description field where you can give some information about the menu. As well it is recommended to enter a short title in the Module title field, you can identify the module with this name in the Module Manager that belongs to the respective menu.
Create a copy in the Module Manager
Though you can create a copy of a selected menu by clicking the Copy toolbar button, you can make another instance in the Module Manager easier.
Points to Watch
Creating a new menu
When you want to create a new menu, in the Unique Name field use only english alphanumeric characters without space to identify a unique name. It is a good idea using only a-z, 0-9 and underscore (_) characters. Please read the tooltips as well.
If you don't enter a Module title, no module will be created, and the menu cannot be displayed in the front end. However you can later use the Module Manager to create a new mod_mainmenu module, and assign it to the menu.
Deleting an existing menu
If you delete an existing menu, do not forget that all the menu items of the respective menu will be also deleted.
Main Menu cannot be deleted
Main Menu is your default menu and cannot be deleted. That is why it is marked with an asterisk (*) in the Menus menu. It can be unpublished however, if you wish to do so.
Each menu is a copy of the mod_mainmenu module. These modules are listed in the Module Manager and their details and parameters can be customized by opening them.
The menu items belonging to a specific menu listed in the Menu Item Manager can be accessed by clicking the icon in the Menu Item(s) column of the Menu Manager.

Me and Marcin Gortat at the gym today! #celticnation#phoenixsuns#improve#GGG Brandon Bass posted this photo on Instagram. By the way, Brandon just jumped into social media in a big way and you need to follow him on Twitter and Instagram ( @bestbetbass) and on Facebook (www.facebook.com/officialbrandonbass). He is posting some good stuff including some great photos and a weekly contest to win his sneakers. This photo got me thinking. What about Marcin Gortat? There was a lot of talk last season about him and a possible trade to Boston. It's apparent that he has a friend and workout partner on the Celtics. Maybe that's why rumors were popping up that Gortat wanted a trade to Boston. But it brings up the question for the Celtics right now, what about Marcin Gortat?
The Suns now have a new GM, Ryan McDonough. If that name sounds familiar, it's because he spent the last 10 years in the Celtics front office, the last 3 as Danny Ainge's right hand man. Marcin Gortat, is in the last year of his contract with the Suns and made no secret of the fact that he wasn't happy in Phoenix last season. At one point, he also was quoted in on a Polish site saying that he would love to play for the Celtics. The Celtics need a center. The Suns are looking to rebuild and have been amassing draft picks. They have 6 first round draft picks and 10 overall over the next 3 drafts. They also face the situation of either trading Gortat this season or losing him for nothing in the offseason.
Since Danny has already shown interest in Gortat, and since Danny obviously has a very good relationship with their new GM, maybe the Celtics and Suns can work out a trade that would help both teams. Perhaps, if (and that's a big IF)Danny is set on trading Paul Pierce, he can consider trading him to the Suns for Gortat and another player, that the Suns want to unload. (Gortat and Beasley for Pierce works). Phoenix can waive Pierce before July 1 and make him a free agent, thus saving a lot of salary on their part. Paul Pierce can sign with a contender. the Celtics would get the solid veteran center they need. It's just a thought.

Saw it last night. I did not hate it as much as predicted.
Not going to lie, I can get a bit excited over some explosion action. Also, watching it on an ES 8090 with crystal clear picture and mega sound system makes for a rather pleasant experience.
What was completely and utterly ridiculous though:
- Story was lacking big time, we had tons of questions afterwards, like did the aliens come from the Super Earth, what was their actual plan, why did they not destroy all the ships immediately etc.
- The aliens' looks
- Scanning the horses, and then a horseshoe blinks up. Where the hell would an alien get that information from?
- The tongue-in-cheek stuff. Idiotic!
- Those fire chain wheels.
- The soundtrack. Misuse of Classic Rock.
- A 70 year old "museum ship" is fully functional, loaded with tons of torpedos, and has the original crew ready to blow 24/7? Yeah, right!
I did not dislike the movie as much as Devil Inside, Ghost Rider 2 or Transformers 3, but it seems like enough people support it for several nominations anyway.
The thing for me is, I have watched Taylor Kitsch in three movies this year. I'm not unsympathetic to him, but he is ripe for a RAZZing.

7 months later, this is looking more and more to me like the film that will eventually "win" Worst Picture at the 2012 RAZZIES. But I must be missing something, because The Devil Inside and particularly A Thousand Words both have more to deserve that title, based on what I've seen.
So here's what I know:
*That this is adapted from a board game. One could argue that in December 2000, a film called Dungeons & Dragons was released. D&D has no ties to Milton-Bradley, Parker Bros., Pressman, or Hasbro that I know of, and is more specifically considered a tabletop game, which was a forerunner of board games. My point is that even though Battleship is a board game adaptation, there were still films that people hated more this past year, and relatively few people would consider Battleship the worst wide release of the year. It is my understanding that those who don't like Battleship outnumber those who do by a paltry 2 to 1, which is bad enough for 2 or 3 RAZZIE nods, but not enough to earn Worst Picture beyond much doubt.
*That this had roughly the same graphic style as the Transformers trilogy, but with little or no involvement from Michael Bay. I can see why most people around here wouldn't like Transformers at all, but most commoners didn't mind Transformers 1, so I don't get the passion against the Transformers franchise that outweighs those films, franchises, and figureheads that the common people (particularly young men, whom Hollywood targeted with the Transformers series) hate far worse, such as Eddie Murphy's recent films, The Devil Inside, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the Street Fighter and Dragonball films, Alvin & the Chipmunks, The Smurfs, and Amanda Sayfried as Riding Hood.
*That Rihanna sang such songs as "Pon de Replay", "SOS", "If it's Lovin' that You Want", and "Unfaithful" back in 2005 and 2006. Those are the only four Rihanna songs that I can name, and they're all from way early in her career. In circa 2009, she (and IIRC Beyonce Knowles) took up Autotune or some similar program, and their voices lost all distinction they had before. What could possibly be more unsavory about her that I wouldn't know because I pay so little attention to the music industry? My intuition says there's GOT to be a bigger reason for RAZZing her for Worst Supporting Actress than her feature film debut or her music-to-cinema crossover.
*That director Peter Berg had nothing this bad on his resume before last May, which means he isn't as bad a director as Brian Robbins or William Brent Bell...yet.
To sum it up, why can't A Thousand Words, The Devil Inside or That's My Boy beat Battleship for Worst Picture if more people in the commonplace loathed those?
RESPONSE from Head RAZZberry: I would agree with you only so far as BATTLESHIP being a likely finalist for one of our five Worst Picture slots. Beyond that, as I see it, based on decades of experience handicapping these things, Worst Picture (and several other top 2012 dis-honors) are pretty much anyone's to "win." Trying to predict what our members will eventually choose as the 2012's Berry Worst, before even knowing what they've chosen to nominate, seems a bit like putting the proverbial cart before the horse's arse...

I haven't seen D&D, but I've seen adaptations of non-narrative media. Actually, I recently saw SUPER MARIO BROS, which co-stars Samantha Mathis from ATLAS SHRUGGED PART 2. That movie definately deserved a Razzie. But it wasn't seen by enough people, and that's the key to this whole thing. D&D did make it to the ballots.
It's not that it automatically deserves a Razzie for being based on a board game. It deserves it for using the board game as an excuse to create a clichéd plot that didn't need to be attached to the game. I also recently saw BATMAN & ROBIN*. And then I watched Jeremy Jahns' review where he explained the real problem with making a movie and having your mind on the marketing.
*It currently ranks #62 (out of 66) on my all-time worst list, right below BATTLESHIP. I suppose that SchumacherH8ter can take that as a Christmas gift.
I did like TRANSFORMERS 1 & 3. Even if I hadn't, the problem isn't that BATTLESHIP has similarities with those movies and we associate them. The problem is that it shows the lack of originality for a visual style. Also, if you pay attention, you'll notice that specific shots are directly copied.
That kind of cross-over is worth of attention to see if it's Razzie-worthy, but it's not automatically Razzie-worthy. Judging a performance can be subjective. Some people bought Rihanna in her role (like me), and others didn't.
By the way, Rihanna's best songs are from 2010-12, so you've been missing a lot. And I've seen many award shows and clips from concerts to tell when a singer is really singing or not. Rihanna and Beyoncé rarely use auto-tune live.
If we only talk about him as a director (he's acted in many movies), the R.T. ratings of HANCOCK and VERY BAD THINGS are pretty close to BATTLESHIP's.
We're talking about the worst director of the year, not the worst directing of each director's career. In a way, that's why the Worst Career Achievement Award exists. I'm sure Robbins could be a good contender, if his resume wasn't full of mostly forgettable family movies.
[Doing weird gangsta gesture] Yo, GTA! You know you're my man. But dawg, you're doing it again. You clearly mentioned 1000 WORDS and TDI more times than other movies because of their R.T. ratings. Can't really blame you though, since you're actually not the only one. It has to be what we personally hated the most. Did you even see them?
BATTLESHIP is hated in more aspects. All 5 main actors are in consideration. In fact, the R.T. concensus says that it's OK for non-demanding audiences, which is excusing the film. And that makes me think that the rating should be lower (I cannot believe that is higher than TRANSFORMERS 2's). The only specific flaw that people remember from TDI (saying things like it's not scary is too general) is the ending, and there's not a category for that. 1000 WORDS is only remembered as "That other Eddie Murphy bomb". TMB is actually on par with BATTLESHIP, because it also has a lot of actors in consideration, but only Sandler is the shoe-in so far. Not to mention that it was more harmful to society because of its messages and how it treated certain topics. At this point there's not an obvious 5th nominee. But no matter which one it is, it obviously won't win because it wasn't a shoe-in like the other 4.
Sorry HeadRAZZ. I know you said we shouldn't predict the results yet, but we can't help it with the forum polls, the predictions from other sites, and the fact that we've talked with one another enough to know what we're voting for.
