I've started by using reference counting in my library I'm making. It's a pretty decent solution and the increments and decrements don't waste many resources as some people wrongly seem to think. Also the slight extra memory for reference counts is negligible.
But apparently tracing garbage collection is so good that it is better than using malloc/free. I'm not sure if this is true so I'd like to try it out (Back-end optimisations by freeing multiple objects at once?). Also GC would make my library easier to use, as calling retain/release functions is not needed.
Edit: The problem is that gc/gc.h includes itself infinitely. This makes no sense...

Feiffer, Jules. LITTLE MURDERS. (1968). ****. All the action in this play takes place in the New York apartment of the Newquists in the Upper West Side. Through the windows we hear the noises of the city: construction, traffic, helicopters, police sirens, fire engines, and the occasional gunshot. The main door to the apartment opens – which takes a considerable amount of time since there are two double locks – and in comes Marjorie Newquist. She is almost hidden behind two large shopping bags. S ...more

This play is as relevant to our media driven society today as it was when it was written in 1967. Biting satire that Feiffer does so well.

Didn't quite know what to expect, was incredibly impressed with the ease at which this world presented itself. The whole family is insanely bizarre, the situation turns out to be more surreal than it initially lets on and despite the ridiculous feel of some of the specific happenings every character felt real, their situations felt pretty real. It was also easy to draw connections and see why everything was being pulled into the extremes they were. I dunno, basically really enjoyed it despite no ...more

Really brilliant and hysterical. The kind of play that makes you laugh and then instantly feel like a worse person for finding it funny. Dark comedy at its best. As another reviewer pointed out, this is even more relevant today, 40+ years after it was written. Based on the stills included in this volume I totally need to hunt down the movie version.

|Growing up, Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers were the most educational things ever. To this day, I am a Mr. Rogers fan. His messages today are just as potent as they were 25 years ago when I was little.
T.V. is revolutionary in that there are channels that show you things you may never experience in life, the lives of people you may never meet, and ways of life that you could never fathom. It makes you sympathetic to others, understanding of issues and causes, and widens your imagination...the Discovery Channel. She loves the Animal Channel!

Gold Digger: Kanye West scouts the GCC for short film
Got a couple of millions in your pocket? Fully fund the next Kanye West film in exchange for a cameo—if you think that's a fair exchange.
February 5, 2012 4:41 by p.deleon
"Now I ain't saying she a gold digger…But she ain't messin' with no broke niggas…Get down girl, go head get down. Get down girl, go head, get down"
Looks like Kanye West doesn't fall far from his songs. We are in a bit of a daze at just how brazen certain rumoured intentions of the rapper have with the Middle East. The National this Sunday reports on reports from those in the know, that West is considering making a 30-minute short film that would "bridge the cultural divide and break misconceptions" set to be filmed in either Abu Dhabi, Doha or Dubai.
The hushed whispers suggest that this moviemaking project would be quite like Runaway, the 34-minute art-house film released to promote West's album: My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
Kanye is no stranger to the region. He has performed in Dubai and has made an appearance at the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix in 2010. Sources tell The National Kanye fell in love with the region and this 'love' was instrumental in his decision to film here: "His reps were discussing how he basically fell in love with the area after the F1 show and it became one of his favourite parts of the world."
Kanye loves the Gulf? Who is surprised? Think of all the culture, the history, the sand and…we are forgetting something for sure, oh, of course, all the money.
Oh yes, the Gulf is rolling in the green stuff, and it would seem that is part of the appeal (read: the entire appeal) for choosing a location: "The way they pitched it would be for whichever territory they end up producing it in to completely fund it. And from what I've heard, there's been a lot of interest," said the source, adding that there might be cameo appearances for those who had invested in it."
Woah, what is that? A cameo appearance for fully funding a film—what on earth could be a more rewarding exchange, right? The sad part is, Kipp doesn't doubt that there actually will be a lot of people interested in throwing cash on a project like this. How can anyone be okay with this?
[UPDATE: A reader familiar with the situation has confirmed that Kanye West's team have been in talks with production companies in Abu Dhabi. However, he reports that "funding in exchange for a cameo" has not been part of discussions at all. "The National got it wrong. They (Kanye's people) are speaking with various production companies here. That's it," he wrote.]
We are reminded of the words exchanged between Morris Townsend and his well-to-do but rather dull love interest in Henry James's classic: Washington Square. Townsend, who is of a working-class background, asks, if it isn't a fair exchange, his good look, youth and charm for his lady's money?
Perhaps on the larger scheme of things, it is a fair exchange—yet the idealist in Kipp can't help but wish that local art houses and producers look to perfecting their own special brand of art to get recognition instead of tacking on an American pop idol for the same.
Besides, as an investor, would you much rather put your money in a project that you believe in? Well I suppose unless you were a young buck of an investor who's a fan of self-loving 'entertainers' who frequently throws Diva tantrums and think themselves god-like and untouchable.

It's filmdom's version of that old Mark Twain quote: "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated."
Every few years, showbiz pundits declare movie musicals dead.
Then, something like "Les Miserables" comes out.
While the film drew mixed reviews from critics, it's bringing in sizeable audiences — and considerable box-office kaching. "Les Miz" has already made more than $200 million worldwide.
It's also won some Golden Globes: best comedy or music and best actor and best supporting actress in a comedy or musical. It recently added a slew of Oscar noms — including one for best picture — to its haul.
All in all, a big success.
Except ... well ... um ... not so much with me.
I spent a lot of time during "Les Miz's" 157-minute running time checking my watch and gazing around the theater.
Let me first acknowledge that Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway were superb. Jackman eloquently conveys each emotional moment in Jean Valjean's transformation from grizzled prisoner to upstanding citizen. Hathaway sings beautifully as the ill-fated Fantine. And she weeps like nobody's business.
As for everyone's favorite "Les Miz" punching bag: Russell Crowe acts just fine as the relentless Javert, out to capture Valjean, but his voice, well, is not meant for Broadway-style singing.
Director Tom Hooper's idea to have all the performers sing live rather than lip sync to previously recorded tracks was a good one, even if it doesn't always work out. Hugh and Anne triumph. But others — Helena Bonham Carter and Sacha Baron Cohen among them — sound okay (just okay) and don't enunciate well enough for us to understand all they are saying. Yet, the concept is valuable. It allows for deeper performances and for more impassioned vocals.
The biggest problem in "Les Miz" isn't the singing. It's the directing. It's how everything draaaaaags out. By a certain point, I was desperately hoping that Javert would just capture Valjean already. Some of that is a function of the material, which could use a good trim. Some of that, though, is because of Hooper's work. He does kooky things technically — he has a fondness for honing in on extreme close-ups and for tilting the camera at odd angles — but his main weakness is pacing. The movie really bogs down at times. Whoever put together the film's trailer — which has a spark and energy that the movie doesn't — should have directed the whole enterprise.
But, based on box-office receipts and award nods, I'm in the minority. And "Les Miz" could signal the (latest) resurgence of movie musicals. Let's just hope the next wave is more "Chicago" and less "Burlesque."

Braeger Chevy helped make these videos
We are still working to obtain content for your car, however the video above is believed to have similar characteristics as your car.
The video above shows how to replace blown fuses in the interior fuse box of your 2010 Dodge Nitro in addition to the fuse panel diagram location. Electrical components such as your map light, radio, heated seats, high beams, power windows all have fuses and if they suddenly stop working, chances are you have a fuse that has blown out. If your Nitro is experiencing electrical problems, you should always check the fuses first, because they are relatively easy to check and cheap to change. Some Dodges have multiple interior fuse boxes including in the trunk - the video above will show you where the interior fuse box of your 2010 Nitro is located. If your Nitro has many options like a sunroof, navigation, heated seats, etc, the more fuses it has. Some components may have multiple fuses, so make sure you check all of the fuses that are linked to the component in question.
If you need to replace a blown fuse in your Nitro, make sure you replace it with one that has the same amperage as the blown fuse. If checking and replacing the fuse for the component in question doesn't work, we recommend seeking assistance from a trusted professional mechanic. They should be able to figure out if the component needs to be replaced or if there is a short or some other problem with your Nitro.

text: I'm 18 weeks and had my anatomy scan the other day. The baby had its legs together the whole time but they got one shot and said girl was their best guess, "but don't paint the nursery." So then I went to one of those ultrasound places and baby FINALLY moved its legs and we got this. She said she was 95% sure it was a boy, but I'm confused because of the first "girl" pic. Help?

Eldest (The Inheritance Cycle, #2)
by Christopher Paolini (Goodreads Author)
by Christopher Paolini (Goodreads Author)
Mike's review
bookshelves: science-fiction-fantasy
Sep 14, 11
bookshelves: science-fiction-fantasy
Read in September, 2011
I was very interested to see what the second book in this series would be like: partly because of the age of the author (the author wrote the first book at age 15 and the second book at age 22), and partly because middle books in series often get bogged down in character development and diverging plot lines. Certainly this book was much longer, much slower, and had fewer major events (a significant portion of the book is about the main characters training). However it was also obvious that the author had matured and improved his writing. It was a worthy sequel, and a worthwhile read.

Some major brands have taken a hit after Google's most recent update to the way its search algorithm works, and a report from Robert W. Baird analyst Colin Sebastian provides further evidence that eBay in particular is suffering.
We've previously reported that the update, known as "Panda 4.0," has stripped eBay of 80% of its best search listings, according to Larry Kim, CEO of search marketing company Wordstream.
RWBaird data corroborates that report, s howing that after strong growth in early May, eBay's growth showed a meaningful decline in growth in the second two weeks (when Panda came into effect), both week over week and year-over-year compared to the first half of May.
RWBaird also cited the negative headlines from eBay's data breach and slower sales before Memorial Day as possible factors for the decline in growth.
eBay relies heavily on search traffic. When you Google a product that you want to buy, eBay wants one of its listings to be on the first page of results. Since Google's update, eBay results have lost their prime real estate.
Google routinely changes its search algorithms to weed out results from lower quality or spammy websites, and Wordstream's Kim says that eBay's bad ad practices caused its results to get punished. Although the company is seeing lousy results now, RWBaird predicts that the negative impact on eBay will be temporary, as it adapts to the algorithm changes and purchases additional product listing ads.

bookshelves: graphic-novels-and-trade-paperbacks
Reprints Seven Soldiers #0, Shining Knight #1-2, Zatanna #1-2, The Guardian #1-2, and Klarion #1. The Sheeda prepare for their harrowing of Earth and a new group of Seven Soldiers begin to form to stop them. The Seven Soldiers of Victory series is seven mini-series with bookends called Seven Soldiers. The story is frustrating. It is sometimes very good (some mini-series work better than others) and there is no good way to read it. The collections opt for the order in which they were released so all the stories contained in Volume 1 are unfinished. Zatanna is probably the best of the group, followed by Klarion, the Shining Knight, and the Guardian, but most of them are relatively strong.

Veterans' holdouts stand to hurt Rivers
SAN DIEGO – The hesitation is slight yet noticeable. And since San Diego Chargers general manager A.J. Smith is almost never caught without something to say on subjects germane to his team, the moment is telling.
As the saying goes in journalism, Smith can fill a notebook. But at this moment, Smith is taken ever-so-slightly aback.
The question is about the philosophy of Smith's mentor, Colts president Bill Polian. Polian has spared no effort to keep quarterback Peyton Manning(notes) surrounded with talent. In the 12 seasons since taking Manning with the No. 1 overall pick in 1998, Polian has used six of 12 first-round picks on offensive skill position players: tight end Dallas Clark(notes), wide receivers Reggie Wayne(notes) and Anthony Gonzalez(notes), and running backs Edgerrin James(notes), Joseph Addai(notes) and Donald Brown(notes).
Polian's thinking, much like other great football minds such as the late Bill Walsh and recently Bill Belichick, is obvious: You don't put a great quarterback out there and not help him.
Thus, the question becomes: What are the Chargers really thinking with this hard-line approach toward holdouts Marcus McNeill(notes), the team's starting left tackle, and Vincent Jackson(notes), its top wide receiver? In a league that has increasingly moved toward the passing game, Smith and the Chargers are at odds with their lead protector and best deep threat for quarterback Philip Rivers(notes). The same Rivers the Chargers gave a reported six-year, $92 million contract to less than a year ago. That deal included $38.7 million guaranteed. That's a hefty investment that needs to be protected.
Or as Chargers owner Dean Spanos knows from his family's fortune in real estate development: you don't put cheap walls in a luxury building.
"It is really critical. If you have an outstanding quarterback, you do everything you can to keep him upright," said Smith, who has compared Rivers to Hall of Famer Dan Marino on many occasions. "There's no question about that. So you do the best you can in your talent evaluations and you go from there. You hope that your quarterback is pretty bright and has a sense of what's out there, so that when things are imperfect or the matchups on the line aren't good, he makes the adjustment. He has to be smart, have a quick release and have a feel for things."
"If you can keep your linemen healthy and keep a unit together for a long period of time, it's all part of winning. If you have deficiencies or you have conflict like we have now, you do the best you can."
Downstairs from Smith's office, Rivers voices the company line. As the son of a coach, Rivers has a respect for authority, so he's not going to whine. He wants McNeill and Jackson in camp, but he's not begging and he's certainly not going to get involved when it comes to other people's money.
"Sure, I talk to those guys and tell them, 'Man, I want you here, we need you.' But I also know this is a business and they have to handle it the way they feel is right," Rivers said, straddling the precipice between team-first and alienating an individual.
Like any football player worth his salt, Rivers believes the Chargers can survive and even thrive without those guys.
"We'll change things around a little, get other people involved," Rivers said, confidently.
One such person is rookie running back Ryan Mathews(notes), who signed with the franchise Sunday.
Still, for coach Norv Turner, much of the responsibility falls on Rivers.
"That's absolutely the case that you want to help him out, but great players also make other players around them great," Turner said.
True, but the Chargers are playing a tough game at a time when they should be the class of the AFC West. They went 13-3 last season and should have made the conference title game if not for Nate Kaeding(notes) playing the role of the man who couldn't kick straight.
However, without McNeill and Jackson, a pair of players who have physical and personal issues to go with their talent, the Chargers could turn the AFC West into a race.
That was pretty obvious during practice Friday when the offense managed only one throw deeper than 20 yards to a receiver who wasn't straddling the sideline. Sadly, if not prophetically, that one throw between the numbers was a toss that slipped from Rivers' hand. Wobbling wounded into the middle of the field, yards from any receiver, the throw was nearly picked off.
"As I was throwing, I was trying to stop because I wasn't sure I could throw it that far," Rivers said, laughing lightly.
Stuff like that happens, but it should be noted that of all Rivers' immense talent, pure arm strength doesn't rank very high. He's a great deep thrower because he has a fantastic understanding of timing and he's amazingly accurate, even from distance.
But if you're looking for the right arm of Adonis, Rivers doesn't have it.
That's what makes the combo of McNeill and Jackson even more important. That little bit of time that a good left tackle can buy and the strength Jackson has to overwhelm defensive backs is the perfect complement to what Rivers tries to do. Without them, it's easy to see that the Chargers could get blitzed into oblivion.
Having those complementary parts can't be underestimated. In the late 1990s, former Dolphins coach Jimmy Johnson miscalculated the need for consistency at wide receiver for quarterback Dan Marino and wasted the last three decent years of Marino's career.
By contrast, Bill Walsh was aggressive in putting the right pieces around Joe Montana following the 49ers winning their first title during the '81 season with Freddie Solomon, Dwight Clark, Earl Cooper and Amos Lawrence. Over the years, Walsh got Jerry Rice, John Taylor, Roger Craig and a series of competent tight ends.
In 2006, Belichick borrowed a chapter from Johnson's Miami book, letting wide receiver David Givens(notes) go in free agency and trading Deion Branch(notes) on the eve of the season. While the Patriots got to the AFC championship game against Indianapolis – thanks, as San Diego fans will remember, in large part to Marty Schottenheimer's bad strategic decisions and Marlon McCree's(notes) failure to just fall down – they came up short because of poor receiver play.
By the 2007 offseason, Belichick reversed field and adopted the Walsh/Polian philosophy. He traded for Randy Moss(notes) and Wes Welker(notes), and signed Donte' Stallworth(notes). The result was that the Patriots were a miracle catch away from perfection.
Now, the Chargers are playing the hard-line approach. Smith has a perfectly logical reason. He has established a way of doing business. To alter it would leave him open to the piranha-like behavior of agents.
"When you do that, everybody starts to say, 'Well, you did this in 2004 or you did this in 2008' and all of a sudden you have chaos on your football team," Smith said.
Smith is not wrong. Consistency is critical in managing people.
That said, taking that stand can sometimes be costly in the interim – particularly for Rivers.

When : Always Apil 5th
Are you a gambler? Then, today, is your day. It's Go For Broke Day. Today is a day to put it all on the line, and take a chance. It might be money. Or, it can be a love relationship. Perhaps, it's time to initiate a risky project, or to take a new job.
Many of us go about our daily lives playing it safe, not taking big chances. If you are of a conservative ilk, you may have never gone out on a limb, or taken big risks. If this sounds like you, maybe today is a day to really let loose and "Go for Broke".
If you can muster up the courage to take a big risk, you can enjoy today by taking big risks and "Going for Broke". We will leave it up to you to decide whether the risk is worth taking.
Former President George Bush has invited President Obama to the opening of his presidential library later this month. President Obama said he's looking forward to going through the library to see if there was anything else he could blame Bush for. ~ Jay Leno
The White House has now put together a website for kids. It's a website to teach kids how to manage a budget responsibly. The website is called "Irony.gov." ~ David Letterman
The Associated Press, the largest newsgathering outlet in the world, will no longer use the term "illegal immigrant." That is out. They will now use the phrase "undocumented Democrat." ~ Jay Leno
Yesterday President Obama shot baskets at the White House and made only two shots out of 22. Even Dick Cheney was like, That guy needs to learn how to shoot. ~ Jimmy Fallon
President Obama went only two for 22. Its tough times for Obama one minute, hes asking Congress to raise the debt ceiling; the next, hes asking them to lower the hoop. ~ Jimmy Fallon
Today President Obama asked Congress for $100 million to map the human brain. And believe me, if anybody needs a map to find their brain, its Congress. ~ Jay Leno
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano the person in charge of our national security recently said she doesnt email, text, or tweet. So remember: If you see something, say something because theres literally no other way shell get the message. ~ Jimmy Fallon
Everybodys still talking about March Madness, and it turns out that President Obama has correctly predicted 11 of the Sweet 16 teams. When Joe Biden was asked about his Sweet 16, he said, It was great I had a petting zoo and a clown."
Top 10 Woot!
Or better.
Top Ten!
A man came home from work and found his 5 children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn around garden.
The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house and no sign of the dog, walking in the door, he found ...an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, the throw rug was against one wall, In the front room the TV was on loudly with the cartoon channel, the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.
In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened. He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.
As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel... She looked up at him, smiled and asked how his day went.
He looked at her bewildered and asked, 'What happened here today?'
She again smiled and answered, 'You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world do I do all day?...
''Yes," was his incredulous reply..
She answered, 'Well, today I didn't do it.
Have a Good Weekend Everyone!
God was missing for six days.
Eventually, Michael the archangel found him resting on the seventh day. He inquired, "Where have you been?"
God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downward through the clouds. "Look, Michael. Look what I've made." Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, "What is it?"
"It's a planet," replied God, "and I've put life on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place to test balance."
"Balance?" inquired Michael. "I'm still confused."
God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth. "For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while Southern Europe is going to be poor.
"Over here, I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people. Balance in all things."
God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."
The Archangel, impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area and said, "What's that one?"
"That's Texas, the most glorious place on Earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and plains. The people of Texas are going to be handsome, modest, strong of character, intelligent and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things."
Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance."
God smiled. "I will create Washington DC. Wait until you see the idiots I put there!"
The Nun and the Golf Game
A nun walks into Mother Superior's office and plunks down into a chair. She lets out a sigh heavy with frustration.
'What troubles you, Sister?' asked the Mother Superior. 'I thought this was the day you spent with your family.'
'It was,' sighed the Sister. 'And I went to play golf with my brother. We try to play golf as often as we can. You know I was quite a talented golfer before I devoted my life to Christ.'
'I seem to recall that,' the Mother Superior agreed. 'So I take it your day of recreation was not relaxing?'
'Far from it,' snorted the Sister. 'In fact, I even took the Lord's name in vain today!'
'Goodness, Sister!' gasped the Mother Superior, astonished. 'You must tell me all about it!'
'Well, we were on the fifth tee, and this hole is a monster, Mother Superior, 540 yard Par 5, with a nasty dog leg left and a hidden green and I hit the drive of my life. I creamed it. The sweetest swing I ever made.
And it's flying straight and true, right along the line I wanted, and it hits a bird in mid-flight!'
'Oh my!' commiserated the Mother. 'How unfortunate! But surely that didn't make you blaspheme, Sister!'
'No, that wasn't it,' admitted Sister. 'While I was still trying to fathom what had happened; this squirrel runs out of the woods, grabs my ball, and runs off down the fairway!'
'Oh, that would have made me blaspheme!' sympathized the Mother.
'But I didn't, Mother!' sobbed the Sister. 'And I was so proud of myself! And while I was pondering whether this was a sign from God, this hawk swoops out of the sky and grabs the squirrel and flies off, with my ball still clutched in his paws!'
'So that's when you cursed,' said the Mother with a knowing smile. 'Nope, that wasn't it either,' cried the Sister, anguished, 'because as the hawk started to fly out of sight, the squirrel started struggling, and the hawk dropped him right there on the green, and the ball popped out of his paws and rolled to about 18 inches from the cup!'
Mother Superior sat back in her chair, folded her arms across her chest, fixed the Sister with a baleful stare and said, 'You missed the dang putt, didn't you?'

2. F***ing gives proper relaxation for your mind & body.
3. F***ing refreshes you.
4. After F***ing don't eat too much; go for more liquids.
5. F***ing can even reduce your cholesterol level.
6. FISHING is good for your health and soul,
And may the Good Lord cleanse your dirty mind

Leaving for a hike in the mud in just a few minutes ...
The Pope was sitting next to this guy on a jetliner, and they were an hour or so into the flight. The Pope, who was working a crossword puzzle, asked his seat mate, "What's a four-letter word ending in 'unt?'"
The fellow answered, "Why "Aunt," of course!"
The Pope replied, "Thanks! Uh, do you have an eraser?"
Sven gets in line, and when its his turn, the preacher asks: Sven, what do you want me to pray about for you.
Sven replies: Preacher, I need you to pray for my hearing.
The preacher puts one finger in Svens ear, and he places the other hand on top of Svens head and prays and prays and prays, he prays a blue streak for Sven.
After a few minutes, the Preacher removes his hands, stands back and asks,Sven, how is your hearing now?
Sven says, I dont know, Reverend, it aint til next Wednesday!
He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, "Perfect timing. You're just like Frank."
Passenger: "Who?"
Cabbie: "Frank Feldman. He's a guy who did everything right all the time. Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank Feldman every single time."
Passenger: "There are always a few clouds over everybody."
Cabbie: "Oh no, definitely not Frank Feldman. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy."
Passenger: "Sounds like he was something really special.
Cabbie: "There's more... He had a memory like a computer. He could remember everybody's birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman, he could do everything right."
Passenger: "Wow, some guy then."
Cabbie: "He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too -- he was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman."
Passenger: "An amazing fellow. How did you meet him?"
Cabbie: "Well, I never actually met Frank. I just married his frigging widow."
"I just got a new hearing aid"
"Oh really. What kind is it?"
"Ten O'clock."

While the holiday break may be a time for children enrolled in the public and private school systems in Storm Lake to take a break from the reading, writing and arithmetic basics they pour over for 180 days each year, there is one place in town where children are still learning life skills throughout the Christmas season.
Young children enrolled at the Gingerbread House, a day care facility located next to East Elementary School on Oates Street in Storm Lake, are continuing to learn and develop motor, communication and relationship skills through a variety of exercises they are engaged in over the Christmas season.
Denise Jennett, who became director of the facility in 2001, said the Gingerbread House is able to give the children it cares for a quality education because of the teachers and aides which work at the day care.
"The people who work here are just amazing in terms of what they do for the children," Jennett said. "They're able to balance giving them activities to do and letting the energy of the kids come out with making sure they get the rest their bodies need during the day. I think they do a fantastic job of helping these children learn and develop every day."
The children, which range in age from infant to five years, are given numerous activities to help encourage cognizance of different communication and motor skills which they will need once they enter kindergarten.
While four and five-year olds cultivate creative minds with Play-doh and learn to share objects such as small dinosaurs and pencils and paper with others, one-year old youngsters are learning how to walk and recognize and respect the space of fellow "classmates" who are also learning dexterity skills.
Kelli Rhiner, who moved from West Des Moines to Newell last year and now oversees three-year olds on a daily basis at the Gingerbread House, said each day with the children brings new challenges - and new opportunities - for her.
"The reason I do this is to be able to share my education to help them develop," Rhiner, who previously ran her own day care in West Des Moines, said. "It's rewarding for me."
Bonnie Engel, who helps with four and five-year olds, echoed Rhiner's thoughts.
"It's great to be able to help these kids grow," Engel said. "It's a lot of work sometimes, but it's very rewarding."

Ted Poore takes on new role
Courtesy of the Madison County Journal
Ted Poore has been tabbed as the principal at Germantown High School, with Madison County Superintendent of Education Mike Kent saying the longtime educator and current Rosa Scott principal brings "instant credibility" to the new school.
The high school is scheduled to open next fall, but Poore will begin the process of interviewing faculty and staff almost immediately.
He will continue his duties at Rosa Scott for the time being, with district officials saying they hope to replace him at the end of the school year.
Poore said he was humbled by the selection and looks forward to the challenge.

Hunt shocked to be named parish student of year
VIDALIA — Sarah Hunt didn't have any words to describe the feeling of being the top student in Concordia Parish.
So when Vidalia Junior High School Principal Whest Shirley simultaneously told her, her mother and the entire school that Sarah had been named Concordia Parish Student of the Year, all the eighth-grade student could do was stand in shock.
"I was speechless," Sarah said. "The only thing I could do was stand there, because I didn't know what to say.
"It was just such an honor."
Sarah, 13, thought the honor would go to her friend and classmate Zachary Nelson.
"He's always the one in class getting the best scores, so I figured he was going to get it for sure," Sarah said. "So I was a little surprised when they gave it to me.
"He wasn't upset or anything. He just told me I better win the whole thing now."
Sarah will now move on to compete in the district student of the year competition on Tuesday and could eventually move on to compete in the state competition.
During her interview to contend for parish student of the year, Sarah said she remained calm and comfortable while answering various questions from the interviewers, such as where she saw herself in five years and who was her biggest role model.
Sarah, who is quick to proclaim her love for animals, answered the first question with ease, saying in five years she sees herself as a student at Louisiana State University studying to be a veterinarian.
"I've always loved animals, and I just hate to see them suffer," she said. "I always try to help them whenever I can."
The answer to who her biggest role model is also came easy for Sarah, who immediately told the interviewers her mom, Leslie Hunt, was that person.
"Whenever she was in school, she always had good grades and competed in math competitions and things like that," Sarah said. "I've always wanted to have good grades like her."
Hunt said being a role model to a child like Sarah, who is extremely self-motivated, involves more encouragement than constant attention.
"She's always pushed herself, and I've never had to tell her to do her homework or things like that," Hunt said. "She requires more of herself than most people do."
Hunt said she wasn't too surprised to hear her daughter had been named the parish student of the year.
"I think she was more shocked than I was," Hunt said, laughing. "She just kept telling me, 'I don't know what to say,' and I told her she didn't have to say anything, but just to enjoy the moment because she earned it."
The Vidalia Junior High School principal said Sarah is a model student at the school and someone he knows will continue to do great things throughout her life.
"She's just a servant and is always willing to help others," Shirley said. "She's an unselfish type of kid and those are the kind you want at your school."
And even as Sarah prepares for the next step of the competition, she said the pressure won't hit her anytime soon.
"When I went to the other interview, they told me they were very impressed because I seemed relaxed and confident," Sarah said. "So I'm just staying laid back about the rest."
Sarah is a member of the school's wildlife club, Fellowship of Christian Athletes and manages the softball team.
She is the daughter of Tim and Leslie Hunt.
