STAR's 25th Anniversary
Hands On Acting! Kids On Stage!
Welcome to the Gavilan College Summer Theatre Arts Repertory (STAR) website!
Founder and Executive Director Marilyn Abad-Cardinalli created the Gavilan College STAR Program in 1985 to expose children to the performing arts, boost their confidence and poise, and to encourage teamwork, creativity, collaboration, and respect.
The Gavilan College STAR Program is one of the best summer programs available for youth living in the South Valley. Over the past 25 years, STAR has become a summer tradition for many families and an important part of hundreds of children's lives. Students not only learn how to perform on stage and produce a wonderful show, but they form friendships and create memories that will last a lifetime. STAR is very proud to continue to keep the performing arts alive and thriving in our community. It has been said that once you're a STAR Kid, you're always a STAR Kid, and we would love to hear from STAR alumni and other STAR supporters.

Classical CDs Weekly: Bach, Berlioz, Mythos Accordion Duo | Classical music reviews, news & interviews
Classical CDs Weekly: Bach, Berlioz, Mythos Accordion Duo
Choral spendour, both modestly proportioned and on a vast scale. Along with the best accordion duo on the planet
Bach: Cantatas for Ascension Day The Monteverdi Choir, English Baroque Soloists/John Eliot Gardiner (SDG)
The final volume in John Eliot Gardiner's mammoth Bach Cantata sequence is one of the very best. Gardiner's recent BBC2 documentary placed rightful emphasis on Bach's humanity, his normality. The devout will find plenty of weighty religiosity in the four cantatas assembled here, but they're also full of zest and vigour. Sample the opening chorus of Gott fähret auf mit Jauschen and smile at Bach's unerring ability to compose music which exactly reflects the texts he sets. "God is gone up with a shout", sing the Monteverdi Choir. The first minute is a little staid, before the music suddenly lurches forward into an exuberant, trumpet-led dance. Bass Dietrich Henschel's solos are magnificent, and Gardiner's sprightly direction allows him to soar. These cantatas do peculiar things with one's sense of time; each one packs an inordinate amount of musical and philosophical content into a compact space.
Marvel at the opening of Lobett Gott in seinen Reichen, a brassy eruption of joy complemented in sublime fashion by a closing chorus which carries an emotional weight wholly out of proportion to its four-minute duration. This disc is full of such small miracles. The performances are incredibly assured, with tight, rich choral singing and orchestral playing full of felicitous detail. Several wonderful oboe da caccia solos stand out, and all is contained within the not-too-resonant acoustic of St Giles' Cripplegate where it was recorded in May 2012. These cantatas were to have been recorded in Salisbury in 2000, but "noise issues" intervened - this disc was made possible by 2500 volunteer donors offering £20 each to fund the concerts.
Berlioz: Grande Messe des morts Barry Banks (tenor) London Symphony Choir, London Philharmonic Choir, London Symphony Orchestra/Sir Colin Davis (LSO Live)
This is superb stuff – a wondrous, fitting swansong from one of the most consistent artistic partnerships of the last 20 years. Berlioz's Grande Messe des morts has to be one of the least depressing of Requiem settings. This was a composer incapable of writing maudlin music, and this work teems with subversive quirkiness. Berlioz's instrumentation is suitably lavish at key moments, and the futuristic sonic eruptions in the Dies irae, with extra brass groups placed at the four corners of the performance space, sound suitably apocalyptic, the resonance of the St Paul's acoustic magnificently tamed by producer James Mallinson. This pair of CDs really needs to be enjoyed through a set of decent speakers; listening through crap headphones would be the sonic equivalent of sipping an expensive single malt from a polystyrene cup.
Sir Colin Davis's grip on the score is as sure as it ever was, the massed choral forces coordinated with unerring precision. He's always had an ear for Berlioz's quirky sense of orchestral colour. Soft cymbal strokes punctuate each phrase of the Sanctus with unearthly delicacy, and those spooky trombone and flute notes in the Hostias are bone-chilling. Tenor Barry Banks is excellent, his repeated cries in the ninth movement nicely set against the soft choral backing. This is an essential purchase – a first-rate reading of a religious work that combines both entertainment value and spiritual uplift.

The Canaries have picked up four points from their opening five games, scoring just three goals in the process, following a summer spending spree like never before seen at the club.
The likes of Ricky van Wolfswinkel, Leroy Fer, Gary Hooper and Nathan Redmond were added to the ranks, but the new-look squad have so far failed to gel together.
Norwich travel to Stoke on Sunday before tricky fixtures against Chelsea and Arsenal and, although Hughton knows more points at this stage would have been preferable, he is not unduly worried.
"It is always a concern because we would want to be better placed than we are," he said.
"But we also have to realise we are five games in to the season and there are a few teams who are only one point better off than we are.
"It is not the time or stage to panic. You have to stay calm in this period and have the belief in your abilities and the ability of the team.
"We are very early in the season to be making judgements. Every game is an opportunity, no matter how difficult it may look on paper."
In facing Stoke, Hughton will come up against a club that appointed their first new manager since 2006 when Tony Pulis' reign ended by mutual consent at the end of last season.
Hughton praised clubs such as Stoke and is looking forward to playing Mark Hughes' Potters side on Sunday.
"We know what the average tenure of a manager is, and that is what it is these days," he said.
"We can't affect that as managers and we can just do the best job we can.
"It is always good to see clubs that have persevered with managers and allowed them to set a philosophy at a particular club and reap the benefits from that, but I know the modern game we are in is results-based.
"What Tony did in the seven years he was there was a magnificent job that saw the club grow from a team getting promotion into the division and becoming a stable Premier League team.
"I think Mark has perhaps got different ideas but certainly the personnel in the team are very much the players who were there last year.
"There are differences - that is normal when a new manager goes in. He wants to implement his own style and way of playing.
"I don't expect anything different in regards to the level of players we will be up against."
A win at home to Southampton and an opening-day draw with Everton at Carrow Road are the only points Norwich have chalked up ahead of their trip to Stoke.
Picking up results on their travels is something that has been hard for the Canaries, with the 3-2 win at Manchester City on the closing day of last term their only victory on the road in 2013.
Hughton knows how difficult it can be to pick up points away from home, but insists he always sends his players out to win.
"It is always about trying to get the right formula to get wins away from home," he added.
"Generally, wins away from home for most teams at our level come tough. It is about going into every game and treating it on merit and trying to get a result.
"That is what we will continue to do. Every game we play is an opportunity to get three points and that is how you have to look at it."

WATER: State turns to cloud seeding to boost supplies
Earlier this month, state water officials warned residents to prepare for another dry year. The advice was warranted as we head into what appears to be the driest year on record.
Now, water agencies are turning to cloud seeding to help with supplies.
Check out this� AP story, picked up from a piece by Matt Weiser in the Sacramento Bee:
SACRAMENTO, Calif.—With California experiencing a second straight dry year, water agencies are turning to cloud seeding to help pad the state's snow pack.
The practice has been around for decades, but cloud seeding has gone mainstream as a result of new technology and research showing its reliable, the Sacramento Bee reported Monday, Nov. 11.
In a report this year, the California Department of Water Resources estimated cloud seeding projects generate 400,000 acre-feet of additional water supply annually in the state. That's about half the volume of Folsom Reservoir. An acre-foot is enough water to supply a typical household for a year.
"The message is starting to sink in that this is a cost-effective tool," said Jeff Tilley, director of weather modification at the Desert Research Institute in Reno, which practices cloud seeding in the Lake Tahoe Basin and Eastern Sierra Nevada. "The technology is better; we understand how to do cloud seeding much better. And because we know how to do it more effectively, it's definitely taken more seriously."
Cloud seeding involves spraying fine particles of silver iodide into a cloud system. Under the right conditions, the silver iodide causes water droplets in the clouds to form ice crystals that grow larger and turn into snowflakes. The goal is to increase the amount of precipitation that would otherwise fall.
Proponents say cloud seeding is cheaper than desalination, new dams and even conservation projects. Additionally, they say concerns about its environmental effects are unfounded.
More than a dozen California watersheds have cloud-seeding projects, many of which began running last week, the Bee reported.
The cloud-seeding push comes as the state goes through a dry spell. San Francisco's 3.95-inch rainfall total so far this year is the lowest precipitation total in the city between Jan. 1 and Nov. 7 since record keeping started 164 years ago, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
Other parts of the state also have seen relatively little precipitation.

Edinburgh's boys basketball team had been plagued by poor shooting and rebounding during its four-game losing streak.
Tuesday night, the Lancers knocked down shots, controlled the boards and got back into the win column.
Edinburgh used a 40-19 rebounding advantage to top host Southwestern (Shelby), 61-46.
The Lancers led 14-13 when freshman Kyle Pendelton hit a 3-pointer from the corner as the horn sounded to end the first quarter. Pendleton's shot kicked off an 11-2 run that ended with the Lancers up 25-15 midway through the second quarter.
Edinburgh's defense harassed the Spartans into 12 first-half turnovers. But the real story was Edinburgh's rebounding effort. The Lancers grabbed 22 of 27 misses in the opening half and led 33-23 at halftime.
Trent Tatlock, Dakota Sneed and Ryan Burton were dominant on the boards all night. Tatlock grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds, while Sneed and Burton each snagged eight.
The Spartans crept to 40-35 with 6:45 to play before Sneed and Tatlock broke their backs with two huge offensive rebounds. First Sneed grabbed a miss and scored, the fourth time he did that in the game.
Moments later, after missing a free throw that would have completed a 3-point-play, Tatlock grabbed his own miss and converted to extend the lead to 46-35.
Edinburgh coach Drew Glentzer said he challenged the Lancers to control the boards.
"One of the things we talked about was, if we're shooting 30 percent there's a lot of balls that are not going in," Glentzer said. "So we need to make a concerted effort to go get it. I thought Trent, Sneed, Nate King and Ryan Burton did a great job on the glass out there.
The Lancers also shot the ball better Tuesday. They hit 22 of 49 shots from the field (44.9 percent) and converted 16 of 21 free throws.
"We needed to make sure we were getting the ball to the basket and take higher percentage shots," Glentzer said. "We did a great job of being patient and not taking the first shot we had."
Tatlock and Sneed each had 14 points, while Caleb Giles added 10.
Edinburgh (12-8, 4-4 Mid-Hoosier) played almost half the game without senior Riley Price, who bumped heads with Southwestern's Andrew Messer late in the first quarter and left with a bloody mouth. He returned to the game late in the third quarter.
Messer had a game-high 18 points. Bryce Rowe added 15 for the Spartans (8-12, 3-5), who hit just 12 of 36 shots (33.3 percent).
The Lancers will complete their regular season Thursday when they host Brown County.

Education takes center stage at a televised debate between North Carolina governor hopefuls Beverly Perdue and Pat McCrory.
The lieutenant governor and Charlotte mayor will participate in the Friday morning forum on the campus of software developer SAS in Cary. It's the fourth of five scheduled debates between the candidates.
Education policy has been a lightning rod in the campaign.
Perdue has alleged McCrory would siphon hundreds of millions of dollars from the public schools with private school vouchers. McCrory has said he has no such plan and supports only targeted scholarships for at-risk children.

The problem is when depart it with the wrap off for a few days the battery will be automatically discharged when I open it up. I think that it is not the normal issue. Am loosing much power form it when it is still closed. How could be possible? Is it the normal behavior of the laptop?

I have to agree, the rejection rate here is out of control. The rejections climbed too high to justify spending the time to upload here. I haven't uploaded anything for a full year. My portfolio here still sells fairly well which is why I have left it on PD but I refuse to waste time uploading to a site where the standard rejection rate is so alarmingly high. Here in the USA, Photodune is not a commonly known website so you would think they would be more lenient in their restrictions, oh well, there are always other places to sell photos, which is sad because I really liked it here a year ago.
Thank you Iman It would be nice if they listed the real sale price and a column for their "fees"
My statement page has all the wrong sale prices. For example I sold a $5.00 item and the statement page shows the item price as $4.00 with my "commission" as $2.50. My commission is correct for the "real" sale price but the statement page makes it look like I make 62.5% commission!! So what is going on? Is anyone else seeing the same thing on their statement page?
So, if I understand this correctly, which I think I do. I am the seller according to Envato, and I sell directly to the buyer so when I file my taxes I have to have every buyers address so that I can correctly calculate how much State tax I owe the state government also. If you sell to a party in the state that you are in you are liable for the state taxes for that transaction. And since Envato collects the money, are they going to collect state taxes for the people buying in each authors home state and then distributing that money out to the authors to cover the state taxes?
Thank you Gaby

As always if you have files you had rejected that you strongly disagree with, please send the links to customer support, these will land on my desk and if I find they should indeed have been approved, I will not only overturn them but use it as feedback for the reviewers as well (they are all human and mistakes can happen on the number of files reviewed). If they were rightfully rejected, I'll explain precisely why (since rejection messages can rarely be as precise as we'd want them to be without considerably slowing down the reviewing process).Hope this helps!
I recently submitted a support ticket for this exact thing, because I had 60 rejection emails in less than one minute. I submitted the ticket to ask if the photos had actually been review or if there was an error and the only response I received to that support ticket was "My apologies, the review team does not have any further information to provide at this time. As the file has been Hard Rejected, the Review team can only provide specific feedback if they feel that the item needs minor adjustments to be acceptable." Needless to say, I have stopped submitting photos to PhotoDune for the time being because of the frustration level involved in getting a straight answer from support. I understand changes are being made but it's like no one really knows what is going on.
Thank you for the update KingDog!
I started a support ticket 7 days ago and haven't heard anything, can someone check it for me please? Case Id # 49531
Once an item is hard rejected you can no longer see it or have access to it, your rejection email is your only record of it. Soft rejections are in your Dashboard under the "Hidden" tab, you can select a soft reject by clicking the photo and then clicking the "edit" tab above the photo to then be able to resubmit your edited item. Hope that helps.
I use Photoshop and Lightroom, I googled 'edit iptc data in Photoshop/ Lightroom" and found a few links that have screenshots for you. Photoshop – http://www.photometadata.org/meta-tutorials-adobe-photoshop Lightroom – http://digital-photography-school.com/lightroom-add-your-iptc-metadata-on-import Hope that helps you out. Cheers.

Tribal gaming facts and figures
Tribal Government Gaming in Oklahoma
• 39 federally-recognized Indian Tribes.
• 33 Tribes have signed gaming compacts.
• 114 tribal gaming operations in the state ranging from an annex to a gas station to full-scale resort casinos.
Tribes & Per Capita Payments
• Three-fourths of gaming tribes devote all of their revenue to tribal governmental services, economic and community development, to neighboring communities and to charitable purposes. Seventy-five percent of tribes do not give out per capita payments.
• Tribal government services, economic and community development, general tribal welfare, charitable donations, and any requirements for aid to local governments must be provided for before a tribe can file for a "Revenue Allocation Plan," which must be approved by the Secretary of the Interior.
• Tribal members receiving per capital payments pay federal income tax on these payments.
Regulation & Indian Gaming
• Tribal governmental gaming is regulated on three levels.
• Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA), Indian nations and tribes are the primary regulators of Indian gaming. IGRA stipulates that tribes establish the basic regulatory framework for Indian gaming.
• State regulation may be included in tribal/state compacts for Class III gaming.
• Federal agencies enforce laws relating to Indian gaming, including the National Indian Gaming Commission, the Interior Department, the Justice Department, FBI, IRS, Secret Service and the Treasury Department's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
Tribal Use of Net Revenues
• Revenues from tribal governmental gaming must be used in five specific areas as stipulated by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. Net revenues are not to be used for purposes other than:
1. To fund tribal government operations or programs.
2. To provide for the general welfare of the Indian tribe and its members.
3. To promote tribal economic development.
4. To donate to charitable organizations.
5. To help fund operations of local government agencies.
U.S. Snapshot of Tribal Governmental Gaming
• 569 federally-recognized Indian tribes.
• 240 tribal governments engaged in gaming (Class II or Class III).
• 460 tribal governmental gaming operations (several tribes operate more than one facility).

Having finished the 1991 campaign with one of the worst records in baseball for the third consecutive year, the Yankee front office showed a considerable amount of restraint during the subsequent off-season. With general manager Gene Michael making most of the important decisions in George Steinbrenner's absence, the organization chose not to panic. Rather than trading away several of the club's top prospects in an effort to provide a quick-fix, Michael elected to continue leading the team on a youth movement. Depending heavily on the maturation of talented youngsters such as Roberto Kelly, Bernie Williams, Gerald Williams, and Pat Kelly, Michael made only minimal revisions to the team's major league roster heading into 1992. Although the Yankees made several other minor moves, they made just two deals that figured to impact the team greatly in the upcoming season.
New York tapped the free-agent market on January 6, signing Royals right-fielder/DH Danny Tartabull to a multi-year deal. The right-handed hitting Tartabull established himself as one of the American League's top sluggers during his time in Kansas City, surpassing 100 RBIs in three of his five years there. He hit 31 home runs, knocked in 100 runs, batted .316, and led the league with a .593 slugging percentage in his final year with the Royals.
Just four days later, the Yankees traded second baseman Steve Sax to the Chicago White Sox for a package of three players that included promising 26-year-old right-hander Melido Perez. With Sax gone, the team expected Pat Kelly to assume the starting job at second base.
New York also decided to inject some youth into the team's on-field leadership by replacing Stump Merrill as manager with 35-year-old Buck Showalter. A former player in the Yankees' minor league system, Showalter never quite made it to the majors. However, after retiring as an active player, he spent five years managing for the club at the minor-league level, before being promoted to Merrill's coaching staff in 1990. A no-nonsense type of manager, Showalter believed in organization, discipline, dedication, and commitment.
Under Showalter's leadership, the Yankees began to show signs of improvement in 1992. Although they finished well out of contention in the A.L. East, their 76-86 record represented their best mark in four years. The Yankees finished tied for fourth in the division, 20 games behind the first-place Toronto Blue Jays.
New York's pitching continued to be a source of concern. The Yankees placed 12th in the league with a team ERA of 4.21. Only Melido Perez and Steve Farr pitched effectively much of the time. Perez finished the year with a record of only 13-16. Nevertheless, he led the team in wins, ERA (2.87), complete games (10), and innings pitched (248). Farr saved 30 games and compiled a 1.56 ERA.
The Yankees made their greatest improvement on offense, jumping from 12th in the league in runs scored the previous season to seventh in the junior circuit. Mel Hall hit 15 homers, drove in 81 runs, and batted .280. Danny Tartabull led the team with 25 home runs and a .409 on-base percentage, and he also knocked in 85 runs. Playing through pain much of the time, Don Mattingly hit 14 home runs and led the team with 86 runs batted in, 89 runs scored, a .288 batting average, 184 hits, and 40 doubles. He also won his seventh Gold Glove. Meanwhile, Roberto Kelly was the only Yankee player to earn All-Star honors. In addition to playing an outstanding center field, Kelly drove in 66 runs, scored 81 others, batted .272, and stole 28 bases.

Last week CNN triumphantly reported that the job market has recovered to its 2008 peak. Here's the headline:
Not so fast, though.
Sociologist Philip Cohen observes that the real news is hidden in the fourth paragraph. There the author of the piece acknowledges that the job data are numbers, not proportions. The numbers have bounced back but, because of the addition of almost 12 million people to the U.S. population, the percent of Americans who have jobs or are in school remains lower than it was in 2008.
From CNN:
Given population growth over the last four years, the economy still needs more jobs to truly return to a healthy place. How many more? A whopping 7 million, calculates Heidi Shierholz, an economist with the Economic Policy Institute.
Using the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Cohen offers us a clearer look at where we're at:

Revision as of 05:56, 10 July 2013
In each Pokémon game of Generation I, all Pokémon have an unseen index number used to identify them in the game's ROM. Unlike later generations, the Pokémon are far from being in order by their National Pokédex numbers, and most evolution families are extremely fragmented. In addition, the glitch Pokémon Missingno. permeates the list; all other glitch Pokémon are either located at 00 or after Victreebel. Since Rhydon is index number 001, many glitch Pokémon will become it upon capture, due to the Rhydon glitch.
When connected to a Generation II game, many of the glitch Pokémon will appear to the other side to be a Generation II Pokémon and are occasionally tradable. In the list below, the name of the Generation II Pokémon in parentheses after the glitch Pokémon's name is the equivalent Pokémon in the Generation II games.
List of Pokémon by index number
Please note that the Ghost, Kabutops Fossil and Aerodactyl Fossil Missingno. are not of type Bird/Normal and use the same type as the last Pokémon in memory.
Garbage data (glitch Pokémon)
- In an interview with Shigeki Morimoto, he confirmed that there were originally going to be 190 Pokémon in Generation I.[1] This would mean that the 39 Missingno. are formatted Pokémon.

SEATTLE (AP) — Trial for a man accused in the brutal raping and stabbing of a lesbian couple in Seattle is underway — without the defendant present.
Judge Michael Hayden barred Isaiah Kalebu from attending the trial due to his repeated, profane outbursts in several pretrial hearings. The 25-year-old is charged in King County Superior Court with the 2009 attack on Teresa Butz and her partner at their home in the South Park neighborhood. Butz is credited with helping stem the attack by throwing a metal table through and window and then diving out it, allowing her partner to escape.
Butz collapsed and died in the street as stunned neighbors tried to help her.
The judge has said he will reconsider allowing Kalebu in the courtroom if he promises to behave. He told jurors before opening statements Monday afternoon that whether or not Kalebu is present has no bearing on his guilt or innocence.

On the call today we have Ray Blanchette, Chief Executive Officer of the company; and Michael Dixon, President and Chief Financial Officer. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Michael Dixon, President and Chief Financial Officer of Ignite Restaurant Group. Please go ahead, sir.
Michael Dixon
Good afternoon and thank you for joining us today. By now everyone should have accessed to our press release, which we issued this afternoon. The release, which covers our second quarter fiscal 2013 can also be found our website under the Investor Relations section. Additionally I would encourage everyone to review our related 8-K filings with the SEC for greater detail on information included in our press release and on today's conference call. We expect to file our Form 10-Q within the next day or so.
Our agenda for the call will be as follows. Ray will provide an overview of our business, and then I will discuss the financial results. We will have time at the end for questions, and we'd like to finish up in about an hour. Before I turn the call over to Ray, let me once again remind investors of the change in our fiscal quarter calendar.
Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we adjusted our quarterly reporting calendar to four 13-week operating periods. Previously, the first three quarters of our fiscal year consisted of 12 weeks, and the fourth quarter consisted of 16 weeks. As a result of this change, financial results for the 13-week quarter ended July 1, 2013, may now be directly comparable to those of the corresponding 12-week quarter ended June 18, 2012. We'll point out the impact of this as we go through the numbers for the quarter.
Now, I'd like to turn the call over to Ray Blanchette, our Chief Executive Officer.
Ray Blanchette
Thanks, Mike, and thanks everyone for joining us today. As we announced last week and then reaffirm today, our second quarter results have a net loss of $0.10 per share. We're significantly impacted by the acquisition and operations of Macaroni Grill, which we acquired early in the quarter.
I'm not pleased with these results. However, I want to reiterate that this result doesn't change our outlook for the opportunities and benefits that the Macro brand and its real estate bring to Ignite. We're also not pleased that we didn't have better line of sight to these results earlier in the quarter. This issue has already been remedied, and I'll discuss that in a minute.
I think it's important for me to spend some time today, explaining what transpired in this quarter and we learned about the Macaroni Grill business. As mentioned in our release, the majority of the variance to our expectations during the second quarter is a result of investments and expenditures in marketing and labor in the Macaroni Grill business.
During the due diligence phase of our acquisition and right up to the February 6, signing of the letter of intent, Macaroni Grill's comp sales were right around in negative 5%; from February through April 9, when we closed on the business, comp sales deteriorated to a negative 11.5%. While there was no secrete to us that Macaroni Grill sales had been challenged for an extended period of time, the pace of deterioration in the first quarter was significantly greater than we had anticipated, and we felt that we needed to act very quickly.
Prior management had purchased some national cable TV time for late April, early May. And while the media purchase was not consistent with how we buy TV, we did choose to make use of that purchase time. And we launched our create-your-own-pasta spots, and took advantage of an existing and unique item on our menu that we could execute with confidence. And with this campaign, we saw a modest improvement in sales trends, but given the level of previous decline, we felt that we needed to be more aggressive and more importantly more differentiated in the marketplace.
So with that we launched our Summer Uncorked campaign in early June. If you haven't seen the spots, this program features half-of-one, seven days a week. We're excited about this idea. It tells a fundamental truth about the brand and ties back to what we believe is an interesting and unique aspect of the Macaroni Grill experience. Wine was always an integral product of the Macaroni Grill experience and an important differentiator from other casual dining Italian brands. And if you saw the social media buzz around this, it was pretty exciting.
After the quarter end, we also tapped into the significant Macaroni Grill customer database that we now own and delivered some limited time offers to our loyal guests. So as a result of all the efforts that we put into the quarter, we saw our comps move from that negative 11.5% that we bought in April to negative 1.6% in July, but it did cost us $2 million more than we had originally planned in that marketing effort.

True potato seed was planted directly in the field in 1992 and progeny from the original selection was maintained under field conditions from 1992 to the present. Selection criteria included tuber shape, yield, drought tolerance, french fry quality and field resistance to Potato Virus Y. 'Prospect' was tested under the experimental designation LL 90-50-4-1.
Tests & Trials: Trials for 'Prospect' were conducted near Grand Falls, New Brunswick in 2003. A randomized block design was used with four replicates per variety. All entries were planted in single-row plots which were 5.7 metres long. Spacing between adjacent plots was 91 cm and spacing between plants was 30.5 cm. Measured characteristics were based on 20 measurements.

|Bureau, FCID opposed to new NRD management plan
|Written by Wauneta Breeze
|Thursday, 26 November 2015 00:00
By Russ Pankonin
The Wauneta Breeze
The Bureau of Reclamation and the Frenchman Cambridge Irrigation District (FCID) left no doubt they oppose the new Integrated Management Plan (IMP) being proposed in the Upper Republican Natural Resources District (URNRD).
During a public hearing Tuesday, Nov. 17, on the new plan, both entities testified against the new plan. There was no other testimony offered during the hearing.
Aaron Thompson, area manager for the Bureau's Nebraska-Kansas area office in McCook, presented their testimony.
Brad Edgerton, manager of FCID, delivered testimony on behalf of the irrigation district.
The new IMP being proposed focuses more on compact compliance through the reduction of depletion to stream flows than groundwater pumping reductions.
The current IMP focuses on compact compliance through a reduction in overall groundwater pumping in each of the NRDs in the Republican River Basin.
The first IMPs were developed after Kansas sued Nebraska over water use in the Republican. They called for a 20 percent reduction in groundwater pumping in the basin from the baseline years of 1998-2002.
The current IMP added another 1 percent per year reduction in pumping over the last five years. That took the reduction to 25 percent.
With the augmentation projects now in place to aid compliance efforts, the proposed IMP reduces the pumping reduction back to the 20 percent mark.
Both Thompson and Edgerton said relaxing that standard will negatively affect surface water irrigators and future stream flow.
They said the new IMP does nothing to "permit equity among water users and to optimize the beneficial use of inter-related groundwater and surface water" as prescribed by the Legislature.
In addition to compliance guidelines, Thompson said the IMPs being considered in the basin also need to include management practices that will improve long-term surface water supplies.
Otherwise, surface water users should be compensated if they have to forego water use to allow the state to stay in compliance.
In 2013 and 2014, the state used surface water to remain in compliance with the compact. As a result, surface water irrigators lost some or all of their water in those years.
Edgerton said his farmers were "victims of decisions necessitated by over-pumping groundwater."
FCID has already filed suit to recover damages suffered by the loss of water those two years. Edgerton said they are leaving their options open if the proposed IMPs are adopted throughout the basin.
He warned that softening pumping standards "will put your NRD, your farmers, our irrigation district, our farmers and the state on a collision course with a damaging outcome."
Thompson noted they too were "reserving all objections and remedies" if the proposed IMP is adopted.
Bernhardt offers response
URNRD board member Kerry Bernhardt said irrigators in the district have adopted practices and regulatory measures to ensure that water isn't wasted.
He said most of the ground used to be flood irrigated, with runoff going into the river. That's changed with pivot irrigation.
He said the district has metered water use for years and instituted allocations.
The reduction of stream flow "is not all groundwater pumping," Bernhardt said. He said conservation practices have also minimized runoff.
He also asked Edgerton how many of his users also have groundwater wells to supplement their surface water allocations. He said he didn't know that figure.
With the additional testimony, the board delayed any action on the IMP during the meeting.
Focus shifting to depletions
URNRD Manager Jasper Fanning said the focus of the IMPs in the basin is shifting from pumping reduction to reducing depletions from pumping.
That's the result of two major factors: augmentation projects and the accounting change won by Nebraska in the U.S. Supreme Court ruling with Kansas.
Fanning said augmentation is used strictly for compact compliance with Kansas to cover any projected shortfalls.
Doing so will hopefully eliminate the need for the state to control surface water.
Fanning said the accounting change in the ruling also gives Nebraska an additional 10,000 acre-feet to work with.
While the district will likely not meet pumping reduction standards this year, Fanning said, it will reduce its depletions on stream flow. Theoretically, this provides more water in the streams.
The amount of pumping is now not so crucial to compliance as is reducing the amount of stream flow depletion over time, Fanning said.
The Department of Natural Resources is still requiring the new IMP to include regulatory action the district must take if it doesn't meet compliance.
The action would require the shutdown of wells in the 10-5 rapid response areas along the streams and rivers in the district.
However, with augmentation in place, the likelihood of imposing this drastic action is unlikely, Fanning said.
In the case of non-compliance, the current IMP calls for shutting down wells in the 10-2 rapid response area, along with a one percent reduction in pumping annually.
The 10-2 area is defined as the area including wells in the alluvial where pumping would cause a 10 percent depletion in stream flow over a two-year period.
By expanding the area to the 10-5 acres (10 percent stream flow depletion over a 5-year period), the one percent reduction in pumping isn't needed, Fanning said.
While the area includes more acres, Fanning said it eliminates the annual reduction in pumping.
The effect of shutting down wells in the 10-5 area would only add back 3,000 acre feet of water. By year three, this amount would increase to 12,000 acre feet.
Compared to the augmentation, far less benefit would result from such a regulatory move, Fanning noted.
The proposed IMP also provides more flexibility in the time frame of augmentation pumping to ensure compact compliance.
The board will make a decision on the new IMP at their Dec. 1 meeting which will begin at 1:30 p.m. MT in Imperial.

My children took one bite and that was it! Would not make this again.
Pretty bland, but not bad. A little salt helped.
This is a good basic recipe but needs to be seasoned to taste however, I find most recipes on this site lack either salt or pepper. In addition, we have one child who likes her dishes a little less seasonsoned and this recipes allows for enough variations to please everyone.

D.C. has some of the highest rates of asthma in the United States, and one local daycamp is helping kids with the life-altering condition breathe a little easier.
Layona Whitehead is one of the thousands of kids in D.C. living with asthma. The soon-to-be seventh grader says the condition sometimes makes her feel different.
"Some people don't understand how having asthma is," she said.
But now there's a new camp for kids just like her.
Camp Breathe Happy, the new free two-week day camp in D.C., is only for kids with asthma.
"They can learn about asthma how to better control it all while doing all fun other camp activities kids do," said camp organizer Ebony Andrews.
Some of those activities include crafts, sports, field trips and even magic shows.
With the assistance of respiratory therapist, nurses and camp counselors, the kids also learn what can trigger their asthma, what they can do to limit their risk of an attack and how to properly take the medication needed to stay healthy.
"My warning sign is chest tightness," Andrews added.
With nearly 14,000 kids living with asthmas, D.C. has one of the highest rates in the country.
Camp organizers say this is a chance to try to teach children, especially those in underserved areas, how to live with a condition that can often make the simple act of breathing difficult.
This summer's sweltering heat wave has also added to the risk of having an asthma attack.
"We talk about heat indexes, grass weeds, how the hot weather can trigger asthma," said Respiratory Therapist Olu Akinwande.
Camp Breathe Happy is open to any child who is between the ages of eight and 12. Parents are required to fill out a registration form. Another session begins Monday.

The 3rd Indigenous Business, Enterprise and Corporations Conference (IBECC) will be held at the University of Western Australia Business School on 1-2 December 2014
The business of strong futures
What sort of environments and conditions are needed to grow healthy Indigenous businesses, corporations and enterprises?
How do we nurture the ideas, talent and leadership needed to drive change?
Where do government and the corporate sector best fit within Indigenous-led economies and how can different sectors collaborate more effectively to achieve system-level change?
What can boards and management teams do to develop resilience and agility in the face of rapidly shifting community dynamics, policy and funding settings?
IBECC 2014 offers a rigorous and exciting forum for dialogue and exchange on how we can foster the health and growth of Indigenous businesses, enterprises and corporations across their life-cycle. Indigenous businesses, enterprises and corporations are diverse in terms of their size, structure and location. But what they do have in common is the coming together of people to form a new and united body to achieve a shared goal or purpose.
We invite you to join business leaders, social entrepreneurs, community representatives, policy-makers, emerging voices and researchers to connect and contribute to a program that amplifies IBECC's cross-sector knowledge and practice. Answering these questions is vital if we are to remain committed to nurturing the health and growth of Indigenous communities and the wider society in which they operate.
IBECC 2014 is founded on a partnership between The University of Western Australia Business School and The University of Western Australia's School of Indigenous Studies and is hosted by The University of Western Australia Centre for Social Impact.
We acknowledge that this conference is held on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk Noongar who remain the spiritual and cultural custodians of their land and continue to practice their values, languages, beliefs and knowledge. We offer our respects to Elders past and present and through the Elders, to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Patient Comments: Menstrual Cramps - Experiences
How often do you experience menstrual cramps?
Comment from: Omotola, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: August 10
I started menstruating when I was 13 years and I am 29 years now. I had menstrual cramps all these years and it grew worse yearly, until March this year, my Mum insisted I stop taking sugary things, no minerals, juice, sweet biscuits. I stopped, because pain killers never worked except I take injections. Now in the last 3months, I hardly take pain reliever during my circles, instead of taking pain relievers about 8-10 times I take it once a month.
Comment from: wolffriendinus, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: April 14
I get craps once a month, usually on the first day of my period. The severity of the pain all depends on how soon I catch it and take medicine. I've tried hot baths and showers, but they don't work. Instead, I take Midol and curl up in a ball on my bed until the pain goes away. This usually only takes about 30 minutes, sometimes less. If for some reason I'm unable to take the Midol, the pain will be so bad that I can't move. I've actually had to crawl on my hands and knees to the bathroom before because I didn't catch the pain in time.
Comment from: Sara, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: February 01
I'm 28 years old and had cramps since 13 years old. Checked by doctors, went on the pill at 14, but developed 2 cancer tumors, which were removed. I'm not on birth control anymore. Had pelvic exams, showed I have cysts but when they burst I can't even move, or get out of bed. So painful! I tried every medicine on the market. I bleed tremendously.
Comment from: maria m, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: February 07
I have a lot of menstrual cramps that I cannot even move does, this is my first time feeling this since I had my period so I don't know what to do.
Comment from: Ruth, 13-18 Female (Patient) Published: August 20
I have been getting cramps since I started last year. They have been very painful. My sister crosses her legs to help her cramps but I find this does not work for me. I use a hot water bottle which I find eases the cramps and makes me feel much better.
Comment from: lml, 45-54 Female Published: July 31
I'm 48 years old - nearly 50 - and my cramps continue to be severe. I am bedridden for up to 3 days. They are nowhere near as bad as my teens and 20s, but I have also had a baby and in the long run this didn't help me. I take Advil around the clock including when I am not in pain to prevent it, but this isn't the answer, since I tend to sleep through a lot of my cramps. When I wake up, I am in pain again. Hurts to be a woman!
Comment from: ImaginaryFiend, 13-18 Female (Patient) Published: July 31
I'm 16, I only experience cramps on my first day. If I feel any cramps on the other days I just tell myself that is impossible because it is no longer the first day and BAM they're gone. I do feel very slight cramps a few days or the day before my period starts though. This is relatively new to me.
Comment from: pinkfire33, 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: June 17
I first started my period a day before my 12th birthday, and had my one and only migraine, and I didn't get cramps at first, but I began having them every month since I was 15. I start having them right before my period and they're the worst on the day I start. (although some months are worse than others). They've been gradually getting worse as I'm getting older, and Midol stopped working for them, and Aleve takes the edge off, and the cramps are usually severe. motrin helps some. i have tried several herbs and it doesn't always help. heating pads do help with them and hot baths have helped with them as well. I am miserable on the day I start my period and sometimes feel nausea with them. I do exercise regularly and am trying to eat healthier, which is hard & I feel like stress also makes the cramps even worse. It hurts most in the abdominal area, and also hurts in my back, hips, and thighs. sometimes I get headaches with cramps. I learned to put up with cramps since I feel better my second day and so on, and couldn't handle birth control pills the brief time I tried them.

Oklahoma Legislature honors Cowgirls for NIT title
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma State University women's basketball team is being honored by the Legislature for winning the Women's National Invitation Tournament following the death of two coaches in a plane crash.
Gov. Mary Fallin spoke to the team Thursday on the floor of the Oklahoma Senate, which passed a resolution honoring the team. Sporting an orange blazer, Fallin told the women they represent the "true Oklahoma spirit that makes our state great."
OSU head coach Kurt Budke, assistant coach Miranda Serna and two OSU boosters died in the Nov. 17 crash in Arkansas shortly after the season began. The team went on to finish 22-12 under head coach Jim Littell and capped the season with a 75-68 victory over James Madison in the WNIT championship game.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
