As an American Indian, I am particularly sensitive to the plight of men, women and children uprooted from their homes. Whether due to conflict, disaster or other causes, the displaced cling to the hope that they will one day be able to return home. For some the cruel reality is that there is no home to which to return. For others months of waiting have turned to years. Still others are forced to return before the conditions are in place for their safety and other basic necessities. This is the human dimension of internally displaced persons--a term of art which somehow seems sterile given the pain, suffering and hardship of the people designated as IDPs.
The Caucasus and Southern Anatolia reportedly contain the largest concentration of internally displaced persons in the OSCE region today. Largely as a result of conflicts in Chechnya, Georgia, Azerbaijan and southeastern Turkey, their numbers have grown to an estimated 1.4 million people. Having not crossed an international boundary, IDPs are not afforded the same protections as refugees under international law, and thus the displaced for the most part remain the responsibility of their national governments. These governments, however, have been largely unable or unwilling to meet the needs of this segment of society.
The situation is particularly alarming in the North Caucasus region of the Russian Federation where the most egregious violations continue in war torn Chechnya. The displaced who fled Chechnya to camps in Ingushetia and other neighboring provinces suffer under government harassment and, according to reliable sources are being pressured into returning to Chechnya prematurely. Where IDP camps in Ingushetia have not already been closed, local authorities have threatened to block food rations or access to electrical power if residents remain. Those who attempt to return encounter continued fighting and lack even basic necessities. Notwithstanding President Putin's assurances that no IDPs will be forced to return to Chechnya against their will, I remain deeply concerned that displaced persons are in fact being pressured to return.
The prospects for displaced elsewhere in the Caucasus region--Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia--remain dim amid long-standing and unresolved political disputes. Despite the frozen nature of these conflicts, Azerbaijan and Georgia have tended to treat their displaced as temporary occurrences, making no permanent accommodations for them elsewhere within these countries. In addition, international aid is dwindling, forcing more IDPs into below-subsistence living conditions. Alternative resettlement programs for these populations are desperately needed.
In southeastern Turkey, with the security situation steadily improving, the opportunity exists for thousands of displaced persons, mainly Kurds, to return home. But this population faces inadequate and arbitrary return programs, hindering the ability for large scale returns. The Turkish Government should ensure that the return process is transparent and thus facilitate the timely return of civilians to the region.
Today's hearing draws attention to the plight of men, women and children dispossessed and displaced through circumstances beyond their control. More than a million people wait to return to a place they call home. Meanwhile, it is the responsibility of individual participating States and the international community to meet the needs of these individuals while working to create the conditions necessary for their return in safety and dignity.

Prepare using fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth and PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese.
If possible, use a large skillet with sloping sides when preparing this recipe. Not only does this allow you to easily turn the chicken pieces but the larger surface area speeds up the evaporation of the cooking liquids which, in turn, allows the chicken to brown more quickly.
Prepare as directed, omitting the wine and increasing the chicken broth to 3/4 cup.

I used the Kraft Herb & Garlic cooking cheese instead of plain cream cheese - it was fabulous. Would make this many times over
I used Basil instead of Tarragon. My family loved it, but wanted more sauce to put on noodles. So I used 2 cups chicken broth, 1 cup dry white wine, and 2 pkgs of cream cheese. There was plenty of sauce to spoon over the noodles. It was a big hit!
I've made this a few times now and I just love it, so does my family. Even my kids will eat the mushrooms. I served it with risotto and peas on the side.

Betavoltaics is an alternative energy technology that promises vastly extended battery life and power density over current technologies. Whether betavoltaics will replace current battery technologies altogether remains to be seen. Recent developments however, are promising. The following is meant to provide a basic introduction to betavoltaics in general and the current state of the art in betavoltaic technology.
- Nuclear > BetaVoltaics >
Commercially-available NanoTritium battery can power microelectronics for 20+ years - City Labs has announced the commercial launch of its NanoTritium betavoltaic power source, a thumb-sized battery that draws on the energy released from its radioactive element to provide continuous nanoWatt power for over 20 years. (Gizmag; August 15, 2012)
- Featured: BetaVoltaics / Batteries > Litroenergy

Just found something new on LA Noire.
Game Informer:
Rockstar Games is known for its ambitious projects, and L.A. Noire proves that the companys reputation is safe. While the rumblings about the game have been heard for years, our world exclusive cover story is the only place youll be able to get concrete information on the gritty crime epic. Over the course of our 10-page feature we look at the games astonishing reconstruction of 1947 Los Angeles and learn how the team took on such a massive undertaking. We also talk to the team to see L.A. Noires groundbreaking facial-animation system in action, and learn how it might change the way we look at games from now on.
At long last, the never-ending mystery of whether Rockstar's "gritty detective tale," L.A. Noire, will be a multiplatform release has ... well, ended. And in a pretty unspectacular way, to boot -- in the comments section of a Game Informer post teasing the magazine's in-depth print preview of L.A. Noire, editor Matthew Kato explained, "It's not a PS3-exclusive," later adding, "it was at one point, but it's coming out for the PS3 and 360." (We've contacted Rockstar to verify this apparent reveal.)
Now, we won't know whether this news is worth getting excited about until Game Informer's preview hits newsstands. We're getting tentatively pumped, though -- but that's only because of our pure, unswerving love of fedoras. Seriously, we can't get enough of 'em.
So, sounds like another PS3 exclusive just got un-exclusive'D. But that's good news for 360 owners i guess. I'm interested to read more about this game. I like the detective/mafia gang narrative in games. Hopefully this will be a great game!

it's said to be rumored for a september release...
Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life.
As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people:
You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life.
You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot.
You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say.

I spell it...."Global Tivoli User Community"
The Global Tivoli User Community had a successful 2009 with the addition of 5,000+ people to the community, which now stands strong with 23,000+ active members. Many of those members attended the 192 local/virtual user group meeting or one of the eight webcasts and/or even enlisted a question during one of two "Ask the Expert Online Jam" sessions which featured over 150 Tivoli experts.
2009 ended with a HUGE milestone with the addition of on-line networking where members/prospects can connect with other members; which also features the ability to view and receive information based on your interests.
Now people don't have to wait until a local or virtual user group meeting to find, meet or connect with people just like themselves; they can do it through the Global Tivoli User Group website. In addition,the user group community also announced its focus on community-generated videos with its now "Community Video Gallery".
As the Global Tivoli User Community Manager and IBM liaison to this community, I strongly suggest that you make 2010 a successful year by joining the Global Tivoli User Community to start networking with the over 600+ people who have opted-in to have their public profile available for networking. Even better yet, join us at the Pulse 2010 conference February 21-24 in Las Vegas at the User Community Networking Area in the EXPO solution center where you can meet up with other members and more. By the way...many of our user community members are a part of the 300 client presenters so come support them and hear your peers share their success stories.
Your turn to talk and share....
Have you had a community networking success story of 2009 that you'd like to share? Let me know your thoughts.

(Sports Network) - Two of the most storied franchises in major league history
will battle in the 2013 World Series, as the St. Louis Cardinals and Boston
Red Sox get the best-of-seven matchup underway Wednesday at historic Fenway
These teams haven't met in interleague play since 2008, but are certainly no
stranger to one another when it comes to the Fall Classic. This will be the
fourth time these teams have faced off in this round and the first since 2004
when the Red Sox, of course, ended their 86-year drought with a four-game
St. Louis beat Boston in the World Series in 1946 and '67.
It's not often that you get the two best teams from each league squaring off
in the World Series, but that will be the case this year, as both teams topped
their respective leagues with a 97-65 mark.
In fact, it's the first time since 1999 (Yankees and Braves) that the best
teams in each league will be facing off in the World Series.
Actually, there home/road splits were almost identical, as well, with the Red
Sox going 53-28 at home and 44-37 on the road, while the Cardinals were 54-27
and 43-38, respectively.
St. Louis is back in the Fall Classic for the third time since 2004 after
beating Pittsburgh in five games of the NLDS, then taking out the Los Angeles
Dodgers in six games of the NLCS.
The Cardinals have won 11 World Series with its last coming in 2011 against
One year removed from a 93-loss season, Boston is back in the Fall Classic
since sweeping the Colorado Rockies in 2007. The Red Sox, who have seven
titles to their credit, advanced to this round with a four-game win over the
Tampa Bay Rays in the ALDS and six-game triumph over Detroit in the ALCS.
With that in mind, let's take a look at the matchups at each position:
In addition to being the best defensive catcher in the game, Yadier Molina has
also become a more than capable bat in the lineup. This year, he hit .319 and
drove in 80 runs. Molina, though, was just 5-for-25 in the NLCS.
Molina may be tested by the run-happy Red Sox, especially Jacoby Ellsbury, who
led the majors in steals this season and has six stolen bases this postseason.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia set career highs in almost every offensive category
during the regular season, but was just 3-for-16 in the ALCS.
St. Louis was dealt a blow in early September when Allen Craig went down with
a foot injury, but Matt Adams stepped in and the team barely skipped a beat.
Adams, though, is hitting .268 (11-for-41) with one homer and four RBI in the
playoffs. Craig should be ready to go against the Red Sox, but will likely be
relegated to DH duty.
Mike Napoli had a terrific year at the plate, swatting 23 home runs to go
along with 92 RBI. He's carried that big stick into the postseason and hit a
pair of huge home runs for the Red Sox in the ALCS. Even more impressive was
the way Napoli played in the field, as he lead all first basemen in UZR.
Still, Napoli may find himself on the bench when the series shifts to St.
Louis, as Boston manager John Farrell may try to get David Ortiz's bat into
the lineup.
Matt Carpenter will get some NL MVP votes, as the rookie was one of the big
surprises in the league this season, hitting .318 with a team-record 55
doubles, while scoring a major league-best 126 runs. However, he is batting a
mere .167 this postseason, although he hit .261 in the NLCS with a pair of
doubles and two RBI.
Dustin Pedroia is the unquestioned leader of the Red Sox. His six RBI rank
third on the team this postseason and always seems to be the one to spark a
rally. Carpenter may have had a better overall season, but there are few, if
any, who bring the intangibles that Pedroia does to the table. Not to mention
he may be the best decision maker in the field in the game.
David Freese is not having the type of postseason Cardinals fans have grown
accustomed to with just seven hits in 37 at-bats. The 2011 NLCS and World
Series MVP has always thrived when the lights are brightest and had two hits
in the Cards' Game 6 clincher against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Boston will apparently turn to 21-year-old Xander Bogaerts, who passed Babe
Ruth as the youngest Red Sox player to start a postseason game. He has
responded with three doubles in six at-bats and has totaled a .727 on-base-
percentage in his six games. Bogaerts could be the biggest X-Factor in this
World Series.
Pete Kozma might be the worst position player on this Cardinals team. He hit
.217 during the season and was a putrid 1-for-15 in the NLCS. With the way
things seem to break for this Cardinals team, that probably means he'll come
up big at some point in this World Series. Still, Kozma has shown flashes of
being a competent hitter, but those moments have been too far and few
between, especially this season.
Stephen Drew has also struggled in the playoffs, hitting 3-for-35 with 12
strikeouts. His track record at the plate is far better than that of Kozma,
but like his counterpart, he's in the lineup because of what he brings in the
Matt Holliday is still one of the best right-handed hitters in baseball
following his eighth straight year with at least a .290 average and 20-plus
home runs. Holliday only hit .200 versus the Dodgers, but hit a big home run
in Game 4 and had three hits in Game 5. It will be interesting to see how he
handles the Green Monster.
Farrell platooned Daniel Nava and Jonny Gomes for most of the season, but has
gone with the latter for most of the playoffs. The switch-hitting Nava hit
.322 against righties this season, but Gomes will likely get the start in Game
1 against the Cardinals, despite going just 3-for-16 versus the Tigers in the
ALCS. Farrell loves the energy that Gomes brings to the lineup.
Although Shane Robinson started in Game 6 of the NLCS, John Jay should be in
the lineup on Wednesday. Jay is only hitting .206 (7-for-34) in the first two
rounds of the postseason and has struggled at times in the field. Don't be
surprised if Robinson eventually gets the nod.
There is no cause for concern for the Red Sox in center field, as Ellsbury has
been terrific. The soon-to-be free agent had missed most September with a
compression fracture in his right foot, but has shown no ill effects from the
injury, as he hit .318 (7-for-22) in the ALCS and is batting .400 (10-for-40)
with five RBI overall. Plus he's been a bear on the basepaths and his 16 hits
and .992 OPS lead both teams.
Carlos Beltran is perhaps the best postseason hitter of his generation with 37
RBI in 45 playoff games with an incredible 1.173 OPS. This, though, will mark
his first-ever trip to the Fall Classic. He is only hitting .256 this October,
but has driven in 12 runs in the Cards' 11 games.
If Beltran is money, than what exactly is Shane Victorino?
Boston may have been criticized for giving him a 3-year, $39 million deal this
offseason, but the Flying Hawaiian was one of the team's top performers this
season, hitting .294 with 15 home runs, 61 RBI, 82 runs scored and 21 stolen
Not to mention Victorino has had a penchant for coming up big in the
postseason, as he has driven in 38 runs in 56 playoff games. Victorino
propelled the Red Sox past the Tigers in the clinching game with a grand slam
of his own in the eighth inning that put them ahead.
St. Louis' struggling offense may get a boost with the return of Craig, who
hasn't played since Sept. 4 due to a a Lisfranc fracture to his left foot.
Craig finished the year leading the Cardinals with 97 RBI and a .454 batting
average with runners in scoring position. Overall, he hit .315.
Offensively the Red Sox are still led by the 37-year-old Ortiz, who put forth
his seventh 30-homer/100-RBI season and hit .309 to boot. Ortiz is only
hitting .200 this postseason, but may have changed the course of the ALCS with
his game-tying grand slam in Game 2 against the Tigers.
Ortiz, though, was just 1-for-15 after that pivotal blast.
The Cardinals may have found an ace in this postseason with the emergence of
22-year-old right-hander Michael Wacha, who outdueled Los Angeles' Clayton
Kershaw twice in the NLCS and has won all three of his postseason starts,
while pitching to a 0.43 ERA.
Since closing the regular season with 8 2/3 no-hit innings, Wacha, the NLCS
MVP, has pitched 21 postseason innings, limiting the Pirates and Dodgers to
one run on eight hits.
St. Louis, though, will turn to right-hander Adam Wainwright in Game 1.
Wainwright, the NL wins leader in the regular season with 19, has been equally
effective, going 2-1 with a 1.57 ERA in three starts. His only loss came in
NLCS Game 3 against the Dodgers, as he allowed two runs and six hits in seven
Wainwright has three straight postseason starts of at least seven innings,
with one or no runs allowed. Only three pitchers in history had more such
consecutive starts in the postseason: Curt Schilling, Mike Mussina and Christy
Although St. Louis manager Mike Matheny hasn't named his other starters,
righties Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly both figure to get nods.
Farrell, of course, was the Red Sox pitching coach under Terry Francona, and
his impact was immediately evident, especially among the starting staff which
saw their ERA decrease by nearly two runs from the prior season.
Nobody benefited from having Farrell back more than likely Game 1 starter Jon
Lester, who was a miserable 9-14 in 2012, but bounced back to go 15-8 this
past season, while pitching to a 3.75 ERA.
Lester is 2-1 this postseason with a 2.33 ERA.
If anyone doubted whether or not John Lackey was fully recovered from Tommy
John surgery needs to look no further than his Game 3 performance against the
Tigers that saw him outduel Justin Verlander and give control of the series to
the Red Sox.
Lackey has been much better at home this season than on the road, making him a
prime Game 2 candidate, but regardless he may be the Sox's best option right
now anyway.
Buchholz was spectacular during the season, going 12-1 with a 1.74 ERA, but
has been miserable in the postseason, pitching to a 5.40 ERA in his three
Righty Jake Peavy has also underwhelmed and is 0-1 with an 8.31 ERA in his two
starts this postseason.
St. Louis' bullpen situation seemed a bit shaky heading into the postseason
following the late-September demotion of closer Edward Mujica. Matheny,
though, has entrusted hard-throwing rookie Trevor Rosenthal with the ninth
inning. He is also relying on two other youngsters in lefty Kevin Siegrist and
righty Carlos Martinez.
In 30 innings this postseason, the Cardinals' pen has a 1.80 ERA and a .177
batting average against.
As good as St. Louis' pen has been, it pales in comparison to Boston's relief
corps, specifically ALCS MVP Koji Uehara, who has been the best closer in the
league since assuming the role after injuries to both Joel Hanrahan and Mark
Uehara, whose ERA was the best in the majors of any pitcher with 50 or more
innings, also posted a mind-blowing 0.57 walks plus hits per nine innings -
the lowest WHIP in baseball history by a pitcher who logged at least 50
innings, surpassing by a considerable margin the 0.61 standard set by Dennis
Eckersley in 1989.
He also hasn't walk a batter in his last 30 appearances and has pitched to a
0.61 ERA in his save chances.
It's been more of the same for Uehara here in the postseason, as he has saved
five games to go along with a 1.00 ERA. The only run he allowed was a walk-off
home run in his ALDS Game 3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.
Uehara has had some help too. Junichi Tazawa, Craig Breslow, Brandon Workman,
Franklin Morales, Ryan Dempster and Felix Doubront have combined for a 0.84
ERA, 28 strikeouts and a .209 batting average against in 32 innings of relief
this postseason.
Having Craig come off the bench at home will be a huge plus late in games for
the Cards. But, if Kozma and Jay continue to struggle, the bench becomes an
awful lot thinner if Daniel Descalso and Robinson are forced into a starting
role. Kolten Wong could also be a factor if the middle infielders stumble.
The Red Sox bench has a little bit of everything. Nava should probably be
starting, Mike Carp gives them a thumper and Quintin Berry was 28-for-28 in
stolen base attempts. Oh, and David Ross is as solid a backup catcher as there
is in baseball.
Any other questions?
A storyline that seems to be buried here is the fact that Matheny was the
Cardinals starting catcher when the Red Sox beat them back in 2004. While he
had virtually no experience when taking over for Tony La Russa, Matheny still
nearly got his team to a World Series last season. He's continued to emerge as
one of the best young managers in the game this season, leading the Cardinals
to the best record in the NL.
Farrell, meanwhile, was the driving force behind the Red Sox' 28-game
turnaround from last season and should be the AL's Manager of the Year. He may
be credited with getting the pitching staff back on track, but everything just
seemed so much smoother with him at the helm rather than the volatile Bobby

when I upgraded to 436, it appeared to go smoothly but it seems that it lost all the certificates I had, or perhaps I miscofigured something.
I had installed the certificate (onto my local machine using the browsers - "accepted permanently" ) that got generated on the first install and all was good. But when I upgraded, it appears that it is no using a different certificate.
How do I find, and reinstall, the original one?

At the 1981 Congress in Baden-Baden, Germany, expectations were great, falling as it did just a year after the boycotted Moscow Games and with Los Angeles around the corner. It was no exaggeration to say the credibility of the Olympic Movement was at stake and new initiatives pointing the way ahead were required.

Judge: Hempstead clerk 'guilty' of misconduct
(Page 3 of 3)
"My sentiment is people were out to get him," he said. "That's what I think motivated it."
Bonilla will be sentenced on Sept. 26, the judge said. Gianelli noted that the trial was not a determination of whether Bonilla sexually harassed anyone, although allegations of harassment were a catalyst for the case.
The allegations
There were three specific allegations of harassment made against Bonilla, Rice said. However, she added, they did not involve physical abuse, but rather inappropriate conduct that created a hostile work environment. The claims are a civil and administrative matter to be handled by town officials, but Rice said they do not appear to be criminal.
"Sexual harassment is always wrong, but often it is not a criminal matter," she said. "Here, however, Mark Bonilla tried to use his public office to shield himself from accountability, and that is why he was arrested."
A day after Bonilla's arrest, Murray and other elected officials called on him to resign. Five other town board members, the receiver of taxes and the town attorney joined Murray at a Sept. 22 press conference at Town Hall.
"Protecting our staff from a hostile work environment is a responsibility that I and all my colleagues take very seriously," Murray said in September. "I will ensure that employees in the clerk's office have a work environment that is safe and free of intimidation and inappropriate behavior."
Town of Hempstead officials could not be reached for comment.
Bonilla would have been up for reelection in November. The Republican clerk, however, did not receive his party's nomination. DiLuzio noted that he did not attend the nominating convention and did not expect to be nominated with his life being "completely on hold" because of the criminal case.
The town clerk provides many licenses, permits and certificates to town residents and business owners, conducts marriages and is the town's official record keeper.

Please enter a search term to begin your search.
February 27 to March 19, 2014
HANCOCK, MI – Tony Orrico: Penwald Drawings/CARBON will be on display at the Finlandia University Gallery, located in the Finnish American Heritage Center, Hancock, from February 27 to March 19, 2014.
An opening reception for the artist will take place at the gallery on Thursday, February 27, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. Orrico will present an artist talk beginning at 7:15 pm. The reception is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.
"Penwald Drawings/CARBON" will be on display through March 19, 2014.
This exhibit is part of a weeklong artist residency with Finlandia University and Michigan Technological University. Orrico will be collaborating on research and exhibition with Finlandia University Gallery and the International School of Art & Design, along with Michigan Tech's Visual and Performing Arts and Computer Science Departments.
Through initiatives coming from both campuses, students and faculty from several concentrations at Finlandia and the Creative Drawing class in the Department of Visual and Performing Arts at Michigan Tech will be involved as Orrico works in The Mind Music Machine (tri-M) Lab, an interdisciplinary research group based in Cognitive and Learning Sciences and Computer Science at Michigan Tech. Materials from his collaboration with the lab will be on display in the Finlandia University Gallery exhibition.
His gestures derive from the limitation of (or spontaneous navigation within) the sphere of his outstretched arms. Line density becomes a record of his mental and physical sustain as he commits his focus to a greater concept of balance throughout extended durations of drawing. Centralizing on themes of cyclic motion and the generation and regeneration of material, the work draws on the tension between what is fleeting and what is captured. The master of each drawing is a conceptual score of which he only produces eight times on paper in his lifetime.
Collete Copeland writes in her article Waxing and Waning: Tony Orrico at the MAC (Dallas' McKinney Avenue Contemporary), "Orrico's practice is rooted in tenets of performance art including using the body as a tool, engaging in physically demanding actions which push the body to limits of endurance and challenging the viewer to engage in non-traditional viewing practices." Copeland continues, "His practice is one of exploration and wonder. He challenges all of us to engage with the world as a kinesthetic learner, using all of our senses to approach life with the curiosity of a child and the intellect of an adult."
In the CARBON series, body, graphite, plane, time and space combine to become powerful reflections on life cycles, energetic flows and complementary opposites. His repetitious movements, often leading to exhaustion, become deep metaphors about life and death simultaneously.
Tony Orrico has performed/exhibited his work in the US, Australia, Belgium, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, and Spain. His visual work is in collection at The National Academy of Sciences (Washington DC) and Museo Universitario de Arte Contemporáneo (Mexico City) as well as prominent private collections. He has recently been presented at SCAD: deFINE ART, Cranbrook Art Museum, New Museum, and Poptech 2011: The World Rebalancing. In June he will perform Penwald: 2: 8 circles: 8 gestures at Center Pompidou-Metz.
As a former member of Trisha Brown Dance Company and Shen Wei Dance Arts, Orrico has graced such stages as the Sydney Opera House, Teatro La Fenice, New York State Theater, and Théâtre du Palais-Royal. He was also one of a select group of artists to re-perform the work of Marina Abramovic during her retrospective at MoMA.
The Finlandia University Gallery is in the Finnish American Heritage Center, 435 Quincy Street, Hancock. Gallery hours are Monday to Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 7p.m. and Saturday 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. or by appointment.

Kansas State program after guiding it to a 23-12 finish, its best record since

Thrills under the Big Top
(Page 3 of 4)
Charismatic animal trainer Tabayara is another favorite with audiences. Standing fearless inside the tiger arena, eye to eye with 13 ferocious exotic big cats, he creates a thrilling display of the remarkable connection between a man and his tigers. In this show he presents a new element as four tigers, each poised with just one razor sharp
claw on a spindle, use their hind legs to rotate in perfect unison. Tabayara and these mighty tigers jump, roar and dance, and have the audience on the edge of their seats.
Then there are the Tower Tumblers, a troupe of 10 competitive aerial athletes who use an unusual trampoline apparatus to perform rare acrobatic combinations of calculated strength and daring precision to defy gravity. The troupe uses two trampolines as spring boards to catapult their bodies in a whimsical but harmonized, freestyle aerial tumble where they dive over, around and even through a three-story high translucent tower.
The Danguir Family has everyone's attetion as they raise the roof, looming high above the arena floor, on a high-wire as thin a pencil, as they execute difficult acrobatics and dangerous stunts. The Danguirs construct two-man pyramids and intricate jumps, including an incredible one-man leap from one troupe member's shoulder to another's. Audiences also will witness the inconceivable and fearless high-wire attempt by troupe leader Mustafa when he jumps a car length's distance over four troupe members balanced on the high wire.
Another of McClain's favorites, the dynamic Duo Fusion and Duo Solys hand-balancers, demonstrate powerful passion and insane flexibility in a presentation of symmetry where in a turn of unexpected events the petite females, Virginia and Tatiana are supporting their male partners, Giovanni and Hector. These distinct yet captivating couples maintain perfect synchronization even as Virginia attempts to balance Giovanni, upside down on her shoulders, poised in three-inch heels and Tatiana attempts to elevate Hector with only one arm. "It's unbelievable what strength these women have," said McClain.

I'm a pro-Tory than the UKIP and here is my view on UK local elections.
Tory is a biggest loser despite Boris Johnson's victory over Ken Livingston. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think, if Boris Johanson weren't candidate of Conservative Party, the Tories would be loser in London too.
As you know, the winner is Labour Party, but the biggest winner is UKIP, because the Torries think that the UKIP is second and final home for them, If Tory Party continues to melt as local election, the UKIP will gain more voters from the Tory Party. I think the UKIP vote is not come just about its anti-EU stance, but also Nigel Farage's sincere dominance on British issues were very influnced on Conservative electors.
Sad, but the bell ringing for Tory Party and David Cameron, despite Cameron's supporting Turkey's anti-democrat govt, he is still my favourite PM… Read more

Do you know of a compatibility issue between the Salesforce Zimlet and Internet Explorer 8? When I check the boxes "Show 'Send & Add' button in mail compose toolbar" and "Login to Salesforce when Zimbra is launched", they do not get saved. It says they're saved, but the "Send & Add" button doesn't show up in a new email message. When you go back to the Zimlet, the check marks are gone.
This all works fine in Firefox 11 and IE9. I also tried compatibility mode in IE8. I couldn't find any mention of this in the Zimbra Wiki. We have Zimbra version 7.1.2_GA_3268 (build 20110804120428)

Officials say the state of Alabama is on track for an early shrimping season this year because of the
unseasonably warm weather.
The director of the state's marine resources agency, Chris Blankenship, said Monday conservation officials may be able to open
shrimping season in May this year rather than June.
He says that's because the warmer-than-normal temperatures mean shrimp will mature earlier than usual.
The department has temporarily closed state waters to shrimpers, but Blankenship says that's an annual occurrence.
Blankenship says shrimp are currently too small to harvest in Alabama waters, but he says there's no indication that has anything to do with lingering effects of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

I believe that the best education occurs when students are actively involved in the processes of learning. Thus I endeavor to make my courses ones in which students can become actively responsible for their pursuit of knowledge and understanding. I see the engagements in the classroom as opportunities for both students and faculty to reflect upon the ways in which societies are interrelated and interdependent. For this reason I tailor assignments and readings to provide students with creative resources that would permit them to consider their positions within the multiple communities to which they belong. One of the key skills students should derive from education is the ability to express their ideas clearly and thus I stress excellence in written and oral communication.
My research focuses on the intersections of media, popular music, and power. I am especially interested in the roles that Caribbean media play in facilitating and/or impeding community formation. I have an abiding interest in the questions of justice and representation and in media and popular culture as sites at which the pursuit of justice is contested, constrained, and shaped.

I'm using the FLOSS version of Zimbra 5.0.16 and CalDAV-ing into it with Thunderbird 3.1 and Lightning 1.0b2. In general, it is working splendidly.
The one exception, is this: At times, the CalDAV calendars will not display their appointments in all of the views. IE: The entries will only show up in the Day, Week, and Month views. They will not show in the Multiweek view.
There is little consistency I have been able to nail down. The "broken" view(s) are not consistent, at times all of the views work.
The calendars are on the large side: some have a few thousand entries.
Is anyone using the new version of Lighting? Success? Is anyone seeing these symptoms?

Mirka Vavrinec and unborn Mango were spotted in the stands watching Roger Federer defeat Robin Soderling 6-4, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (5) to reach the Wimbledon quarterfinals in a rematch of their Roland Garros final. The Swiss will next face dangerous Ivo Karlovic for a spot in another Grand Slam semifinal.
She is SERIOUSLY ready to burst at any moment. I'm thinking it'll be this coming weekend - at least they'll have a cup and a dish to help with the birth - and afterbirth.

What a great hunt regardless of the hot weather for the end of September. Had 8 - 10 different bulls going nuts last Thursday eve in a high meadow and I was able to get in the middle and wait for an opportunity. I picked out the biggest, best sounding bugle and waited. He was getting closer with the other bulls bugling behind me. At 7PM he showed up at 40 yrds on the edge of the timber and came to me at 20 yards broadside. Not wanting to hurry the search I walked away and came back the next day with my Bro in Law and Nephew. 125 yrds and 15 minutes of looking the bull was found.
His Right side Base had been damaged at some point in his life and he grew a funky antler. Kind of a unique bull.

925 Ring
925 Ring actually means Sterling Silver Ring, however, for the sake of this document I am going to refer to it as 925 Ring. Durango Silver Company has been in the business of producing 925 Rings for nearly 40 years now and 925 Rings are our specialty.
To the left is a 925 Ring made by John Hartman of Durango Silver Company. This 925 Ring features a Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Stone, a Oville Jack Turquoise stone and a Sugilite gemstone. It was created in Sterling Silver in what John considers his Southwestern Victorian Silver design work. John is well known throughout the world for producing a very unique style of 925 Jewelry that is unique only to himself.
You can read more about John Hartman on his presentation page and you can see a lot of his Silver Jewelry as well as many a 925 ring on the Durango Silver Company online store, the catagory tabs are on the left side of this page. You can also see a display of Jewelry made by John Hartman in the September issue of Glamor Magazine which will be out shortly.
925 Ring designs by Durango Silver Company
Durango Silver Company resides in Durango, Colorado USA. We produce Southwestern styled Silver Jewelry of the highest quality. Southwestern Silver Jewelry from Southwestern United States is unusual and has a unique appearance unlike any other 925 Jewelry in the world, in general. We pride ourselves in having some of the highest quality Silver Jewelry coming out of the Southwest today.
To the right is a inlaid 925 ring that was designed by John Hartman and inlaid by Dillon Hartman. This is typical of Jewelry produced by Durango Silver Company, John will design a 925 ring and then it may be created by a Native American Silversmith and then inlaid by Dillon or one of our other gemstone inlayers.
Durango Silver Company produces a lot of inlaid Silver Jewelry as well as inlaid 925 ring. We have a very high standard of quality gemstones that we use in our Jewelry and gem grade Turquoise is our gemstone of choice. We have been mining and collecting gem Turquoise for over 40 years and have worked with some of the most historic American Turquoise miners of the past.
The Turquoise 925 Ring
The American Frontier and especially the American Southwest is an area of great interest to historians as it had a colorful and exciting past in qlobal history. The Native American Indians were responsable for finding American Turquoise about 300 B.C. and a Navajo Indian by the name of Atsidi Sani was responsable for creating the first 925 ring in the Southwest. Atsidi Sani learned the Silversmithing trade from the Spanairds as they came through the Southwest in quest of Gold and Silver.
Durango Silver Company has had a long relationship with the Otteson's of Tonopah Nevada. The Ottesons developed the Royston Turquoise Mine and are still the owners of the mine. The Royston Turquoise Mine is the only Turquoise Mine in Nevada producing quanities of quality Turquoise today and a 925 Ring made with Royston Turquoise is a treasure. You can acquire a 925 ring with Royston Turquoise from Durango Silver Company.
If you would like a 925 Ring made with Royston Turquoise, be certain to keep us in mind as we have authentic Royston Turquoise and this can be verified by calling the Ottesons. You can also take a mine tour at the Royston Turquoise Mine and then have a 925 Ring made from the Turquoise you personally get on your mine tour as you are allowed to take the Turquoise you find home and you will find Turquoise.
Also see 925 silver on Wikipedia. Other subjects are 925 Jewelry, Sterling Silver Ring, Royston Turquoise Jewelry, Silver Rings
We hope you enjoyed this blog and will visit our site when thinking of a 925 Ring in the future. Please note we would be happy to make you a 925 ring specially for you.

this video -what a bunch of CRAP!!ReplyDelete
As much as I like the APDP, it's time for Ana to get out of there and get a full time coach who can work with her all the time. I say hire Dejan Vranes if he is available. She is working with him right now in Belgrade and he is her Fed Cup coach and former juniors coach. He understands her well and they're comfortable together. I think that is exactly what Ana needs right now.ReplyDelete
I agree LJ. It's a major betrayal. Also, adidas is boring.ReplyDelete

Norwegian-Thai Sports Illustrated model Chrissy Teigen shows you how to properly pose in a swimsuit
As summer is almost upon us (eeks! finishing up Audrey Magazine's summer issue as we speak!), it's time for that annual hunt of great swimsuits to wear to the pool or the beach or down the street. (Ain't no one stopping you.)
We've compiled some details to look out for when finding your perfect swimsuit–especially ones that tend to flatter Asian American bodies and skin tones. Take a look.
With so many pretty colors around, red is the ultimate Asian color to wear. It's bright and fun yet classy and complements our skin tone super well. Yellow is also a really popular hue this season. If solids are not your cup of tea, why not wear a super colorful one like this Christian Audigier one above (right)?
Being a rather small-busted and…nipply woman, swimsuits that flatter my breasts are always of first priority. My favorite are those with built-in padding. This season, I found I can cheat my way with ruched tops (top left) in bold patterns that will hide what I have (and don't have). Another good alternative are halters that will give you cleavage no matter your cup size like the Victoria's Secret piece (top right).
I'm a little shy when it comes to beachwear. String bikinis are not really my thing. For those who prefer a little modesty, they can still find pretty and playful suits for the beach like these tankinis and one pieces that are back in style!
Last but not least, don't forget the accessories! Sun block and wide-brimmed hats add to your personality (and shelter you from the sun).
Happy swimsuit hunting!

Small differences
Editing this months Small Business of the Year package reminded me of Tolstoys opening line in Anna Karenina: Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way. That, I thought, could also describe the difference between large and small businesses.
That doesnt mean small businesses are unhappy places any more than saying that size measures and ensures the opposite. But by its very bulk, a big business becomes a bureaucracy. Despite the difference in what they do, GE resembles IBM in more ways than not. On the other hand, a small company reflects and retains the character the idiosyncrasies of its owner and key players. Tom Hagens repeated admonition in The Godfather that its not personal, its business only proves that the Corleone enterprise had outgrown a family firm. Hed have made a great corporate counsel.
These are companies that, facing some of the toughest times imaginable, adapted to their individual markets, each in its own distinctive way, BNC Publisher Ben Kinney, one of the judges, says of this years winner and runners-up. They had something to lose they had everything to lose. And they took it very personally. Taking business personally has been a theme of the stories weve published during the 15 years weve held this competition. And its one of the things that have made telling them so enjoyable.
I love doing profiles on small businesses for the same reason I like watching minor-league baseball, Contributing Editor David Bailey says. Theres always plenty of action, and the errors on the field can be just as interesting as the home runs. Whenever I interview the owner of a small business, I expect to hear about the marketplace equi- valent of head-on collisions between the pitcher and catcher, bobbled catches in deep left field and heroic last-inning saves. But I never anticipated the sort of drama and near-death experiences that I heard from this group.
As I got deeper and deeper into how each one of them weathered the recession, what I heard from every one of them was more like how they had very narrowly survived it. Two of the companies almost closed their doors. All of them adapted their business models and marketing strategies to a rapidly changing marketplace. And what was really fascinating is how each one of them, run by dynamic and determined individuals, adapted differently, depending on the owners personality, unique management style and business savvy. These were all companies that had not only carefully prepared for the worst but were willing to hang in there when the worst was a whole lot worse than theyd anticipated. In short, theyre all survivors.

Two busted on drug charges during traffic stop
Published: Monday, June 17, 2013 at 5:33 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 17, 2013 at 5:33 p.m.
A traffic stop on Monday morning ended with two people in jail, including one on charges of intending to sell marijuana and having a weapon in the car.
Desmond Davis, 23, was driving along the 4500 block of West State Road 40 when he failed to stop at a stop sign just before 3 a.m., according to Marion County Sheriff's Office reports.
A deputy pulled him over and during the traffic stop, the officer noticed a strong smell of marijuana coming from the car. He later found six small plastic bags of marijuana in the car and a 9mm handgun under Davis' seat. Davis was also driving without a valid license, according to reports.
Davis was booked into the Marion County Jail on one count each of possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, display of a firearm during a felony and knowingly driving with a suspended or revoked license. He was released Monday afternoon after posting a $25,500 bond.
A passenger in the car was also charged with misdemeanor possession of marijuana.

Well, that's not exactly the case. This is what I mean. In geology it's fairly common to divide major rock units or formations into sub-units, especially when dealing with large scale maps that show a lot of detail. Sometimes the units or sub-units are formal parts of the stratigraphy of a formation; sometimes they are informal units made up by people working in an area where detailed stratigraphy isn't broadly recognized.
When dividing a section or formation into units or sub-units, it is standard practice for geologists to number the units from the bottom up, that is, with smaller numbers at the bottom or older parts of the sections and larger numbers at the top or younger parts of the section*.
For example, I might start mapping some large section of limestone in Nevada, maybe one that is fairly similar throughout but not entirely, and maybe one that hasn't previously been divided into subunits. Or maybe I'm working in some volcanic terrane where units and even major formations haven't been subdivided at all, but I need some way to distinguish rock formations and type on my map, especially so I might be able, then, to figure out the structure.
I'd start at the bottom of some hill, presuming that the section is right side up with youngest on top and the oldest on the bottom, and I'd call the first unit, Unit 1. (Not very original, but it works.) So the first unit, a light gray, cliff-forming, sandy limestone is Unit 1. The next identifiable rock formation I run across as I walk up the hill is a buff-weathering, slope-forming shaly limestone. I call that Unit 2. Unit 2 is younger than Unit 1. That's the way it is. We number things from the bottom up. Unit 3, above Unit 2, just happens to be a gray, cliff-forming sandy limestone almost identical to Unit 1, but Unit 3 has a few scattered brachiopod fossils in it, and Unit 1 doesn't. And so it goes, all the way up the hill - and down the next hill if need be - and all the way across the area, going from older to younger, with the unit numbers getting larger and larger.
The frustrating thing I've had to deal with recently is a particular rock formation that has two already-described stratigraphic sections. One is a section with numbers for the sub-units; one section has letters for the sub-units. Both the numbering and lettering systems are upside down. I can choose from using a numbered section that starts at the top of the formation with Unit 1 and works it's way down-section into older rocks with Unit 2 on top of Unit 3, on top of Unit 4, on top of Unit 5, and so on into however many subunits this rock formation has. Or I can choose a lettered section that starts with Unit A at the top, older than the Unit B beneath it, which is on top of Unit C, on top of Unit D, and so on to Unit Z. (I kid you not about the Z.)
I have a somewhat difficult time keeping track of numbers that start at the bottom of some formation with Unit 8 and work their way up-section, younger, often uphill (not always) to Unit 1. I find it almost impossible to start at the bottom of the formation with Unit Z and work my way up-section into younger rocks, often uphill, with Unit Y on top of Unit Z, with Unit X on top of Unit Y, and so on.
Perhaps the obvious the thing is to start at the top of the section, in this particular case and work downward into older rocks - and that's fine, until I have to start thinking about the rocks I just looked at. I keep having to say the alphabet over and over again, sometimes near the beginning, sometimes in the middle somewhere, and sometimes near the end, just to keep track of these upside-down letters.
At least they are upside down to me, even though the stratigraphy is right side up.
Maybe these numbered and lettered measured sections were from some area where it turned out that the formation in question was upside down when they described the section. Maybe. Then, maybe, when they started at the bottom of the hill and measured there way up, they started with 1 or A, which turned out to be the youngest unit of the formation because everything was overturned sometime back in the Paleozoic (a long, long time ago - more than 250 million years ago!). Well, maybe.
*Geologic convention is to number or letter units from oldest to youngest because the first layer deposited will then be called Unit 1 (or A). It was the first, it is the oldest, in a right-side up section it will be on the bottom or underneath all later and younger units.

A federal appeals panel will decide whether a Mississippi or federal court has jurisdiction over a lawsuit alleging price fixing by manufacturers of liquid crystal display screens.
A panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has scheduled oral arguments in New Orleans for Oct. 5.
Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood sued several major suppliers of LCD screens in Hinds County Chancery Court in March of 2011.
Hood alleged in the lawsuit that consumers paid extra because of price fixing in violation of the Mississippi Consumer Protection Act.
The LCD screens are used in computers and televisions.
The lawsuit seeks damages, restitution and civil penalties for actions from 1996 to 2006 by companies in Japan, Korea and Taiwan, plus their U.S. counterparts.
