Rated 5 out of 5 by MCsquirrel quality I love this item, but both gloves came with a hole between the thumb and index finger which got bigger when I used them. For that reason I am subtracting a star. November 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Misse1214 Wow I just used these about five minutes ago. I feel refreshed. It's extremely easy to use! No more foaming up washclothes, buying exfoliating gels, using sugar or coffee that gets all over the place. I can pour my shower gel right on my gloved hands... and that's it. The best thing about these is that I'm able to exfoliate my feet in a few seconds without using another item. My entire body is silky smooth. I do think they're too gritty to use alone though, which I'm not complaining about, just don't want anyone to scratch themselves up. At this price, it's a bargain. January 15, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Dags WOW Why did I ever waste any money on those stupid, expensive exfoliating body scrubs? These do the same job, if not better, for a small fraction of the cost and are reusable! Not to mention MUCH easier to use! My skin feels just as soft and fresh as if I had used a scrub. I only wish I had found these sooner. I will be trying the facial scrubbing pads next instead of my facial exfoliating scrub. August 17, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by 0sherrie Great exfoliaters! I purchased these today because I was looking to give myself a manicure. well i used some cuticle oil and hand cream and after rubbing that in I put on these gloves. when I took them off I was amazed at how soft and smooth my hands were! These are truelly worth every single penny! great buy! November 6, 2010

SIN Chew Daily reported that a mute woman was raped by her neighbour at her flat in Mengkarak, Pahang.
The victim was alone when the suspect allegedly broke into her home and raped her about midnight on June 14.
Her mother found out about the incident when the woman, using sign language, related the ordeal to her the next morning.
A police report was lodged.
> A man has been assaulting his 29-year-old wife constantly and threatens to harm their children so that she will not divorce him, China Press reported.
Sources said the drug addict started to attack his wife for about five years now.
The latest assault took place in their house in Pantai Dalam, Kuala Lumpur, at about 11.30pm on June 11. The suspect hit his wife with a helmet resulting in her suffering a broken leg.
Unable to stand it any more, she lodged a police report.
The victim said her children, aged nine and seven, were traumatised.
> China Press reported that actor Raymond Lam, 34, was in love with his Hong Kong artiste girlfriend Karena Ng, but Lam's younger brother disliked Ng.
Sources said Lam's 23-year-old brother refused to take photos with Ng during his graduation ceremony in the United States in May, last year.
Some of Lam's fans, who also disliked Ng, urged Lam's brother to advise his brother to leave the 20-year-old artiste. They accused Ng of being with Lam just for his wealth.

Things to Do in Dallas: A Guide to the City's JFK Memorials
It has been more than 50 years since that fateful day in November, 1963 when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in downtown Dallas, yet it continues to be a source of perpetual fascination. Dallas has worked tirelessly to preserve the legacy of not just the president, but also the landmarks that provided a pivotal role in his death and the days immediately following.
The centrepiece of the JFK attractions is The Sixth Floor Museum of the Texas School Book Depository, the location from which Lee Harvey Oswald allegedly shot and killed the President. A variety of exhibits are on display, including historic photographs and films, as well as the famous camera owned by Abraham Zapruder, the man who filmed the only known footage of the entire assassination.
Just outside the museum is Dealey Plaza, a designated National Historic Landmark, which includes Dealey Plaza Park and the infamous grass knoll, the triple underpass and its bridge, a few surrounding buildings and a section of nearby rail yards. The museum offers self-guided tours via mobile phone, but many people simply walk the park and take photos at the "X" on Elm Street that marks the exact spot of his shooting.
In 1969, Phillip Johnson built the John F. Kennedy Memorial, a 50-square-foot, open-roof, concrete monument designed to the specifications of Jackie O.
In the nearby Oak Cliff section of Dallas, the Texas Theatre has been re-opened and is once again showing movies. The theatre is an important piece of the assassination puzzle because it's the location where Oswald was captured hours after the shooting.
Those who are most fascinated by the events and wish to have a truly in-depth experience may wish to hire DFW Historical Tours. One of the guides is a member of the Dealey family himself. He or his fellow guide offer in-depth tours of the sites, some up to six hours in length, including transportation to trace the entire journey of the President and First Lady from the moment they arrived in Dallas.
Though the presidential assassination is a tragic part of American history, Dallas has done a remarkable job of preserving and advancing the study of the places, events, and people forever tied to November 22, 1963.

TNA releasing James Storm
In a rather shocking bit of news, James Storm has asked for his release from TNA, and the company has granted that to him. No word yet on why he made this decision, but there has not been any reports of backstage heat between the former world heavyweight champion and management. It might just be due to the fact that he has not received a push in a while.
June 27, 2015
James Storm Revolution
The payoff for the Revolution stable led by James Storm might be coming very soon. With Kurt Angle being pushed as the top star in TNA again, he is going to need some heel challengers for his world heavyweight championship. MVP is obviously going to be one of those foes. Another person discussed is Storm, who is long overdue for another run in the main event. His ever growing stable would be an imposing challenge for Angle.

Leafs Want All The Things
Jeff Veillette
July 14 2014 10:58PM
In typical fashion, Tim Leiweke is swinging for the fences on behalf of the Toronto Maple Leafs. No, this isn't another article about Steven Stamkos (we did that yesterday). We're talking about the 100th anniversary, and the things that he wants the team to do off the ice in 2017. On the list is, well, everything.
The Draft. The Winter Classic. The All Star Game. He even wants the World Cup Of Hockey. From the horse's mouth:
The Leafs made a hire I liked. Crazy, I know!
Cam Charron
July 14 2014 12:32AM
I wasn't able to get to it on the weekend, but I'd like to expand on a few tweets I made after the Leafs hired Peter Horachek as an assistant coach. I really like the hire. Horachek was a coach who got certain results in Florida (huh? you might ask) that I don't think a lot of coaches would.
Concerning Steven Stamkos
Jeff Veillette
July 13 2014 06:00PM
The above is obviously a photoshop from the Kessel trade. Burke is gone, Stamkos' head is on wrong, The 9 is bigger than the 1, that's an old jersey, and the wrong nameplate for an old jersey as well. But there has been a bunch of speculation that's going around. Nothing is imminent in the slightest, but here's where we're at in this "offseasonest thing to ever offseason" scenario.
New year, same old story
Jim Lang
July 13 2014 10:30AM
Between the end of June and early July a number of teams around the NHL made some significant moves. Whether it was a big trade or a major free agent signing, teams were not shy about making some bold moves to improve their team.
The Leafs were not one of them.

Anyway, thank you to everyone who came to the Five Hole For Food event in Toronto, and all of the other readers I've met in other awesome cities. Today not much has tangibly happened in Leafs land (there's a theoretical, but we'll talk about this more tomorrow), so it's time for a mailbag.

The Globe and Mail Published Sunday, Mar. 24, 2013 7:37PM EDT Last updated Sunday, Mar. 24, 2013 7:51PM EDT Canadian executives are split on the emphasis they want from Ottawa – austerity or stimulus – in order to get the economy moving while maintaining a reasonable fiscal situation. But they have lots of ideas on what could be done to help kick-start the economy, some of which were reflected in last week's budget. A large majority think more immigration is crucial, while infrastructure spending also gets broad support. However, views on the best targets for infrastructure spending vary widely.

BMI View: Growth in Oman's pharmaceutical and healthcare market s will be
driven by the roll out of medical insurance schemes and the completion of two
medical cities , capitalising on the increased demand for healthcare services in
both the domestic and international markets. Both projects are valued at over
USD1bn each and will significantly improve the level of healthcare provision in
Headline Expenditure Projections-Pharmaceuticals: OMR203mn (USD528mn) in 2014 to OMR217mn (USD564mn) in 2015;
6.8% in local currency and US dollar terms. Forecast broadly in line with Q 2
15.-Healthcare: OMR853mn (USD2.22bn) in 2014 to OMR939mn (USD2.44bn) in 2015; +10.1%
in local currency and US dollar terms. Forecast downgraded slightly from Q215.
Risk/Reward Index
Oman has limited longer-term commercial potential due to its small population
and the fact that the government is responsible for the bulk of healthcare
costs, which will increase the need for cost containment in the coming years. In
Q315, Oman scores 49.0 out of 100 in the BMI Pharmaceutical Risk/Reward Index,
which has seen the country maintain its position in 10th place in the Middle
East and Africa matrix out of 31 countries.
Key Trends And Developments-Data from the insurance sector in June 2015 indicated that claims paid by
companies rose during Q115 by 36% to reach OMR39mn (USD101mn). Health insurance
accounted for 22% of total direct premiums.-The Ministry of Health launched the National Electronic Health Record System in
May 2015. The system links a patient's files in affiliated health institutions
so the patient can access their medical history at anytime from anywhere.-Two paediatric drugs Advil and Panadol (marketed by GlaxoSmithKline) were
recalled by the Ministry of Health in May 2015 due to errors in the dosage
advice in their leaflets.

Economic Development Roles in
American Cities: A Contextual Analysis of Shifting
Partnership Arrangements
Susan E. Clarke
This chapter provides an overview of changing conditions and new institutional and political roles in local economic development activities. To the extent that some of the contextual features evident in American cities emerge elsewhere because of devolution, global competition pressures, taxpayer resistance, and other trends, local governments may take up similar initiatives and the public-private partnerships featured here may become more widespread (Harding 1994; Stoker 1995; Wolman with Spitzley 1996).
Three distinct characterizations of partnerships are considered. On one hand, these partnership arrangements are pragmatic solutions to the need for more coordination and cooperation in many American cities. Partnerships are governance strategies as well; they enhance cities' problem-solving capacities and strengthen integration of different institutional or relational webs within cities. Yet others claim that partnerships are myths, that they legitimize and maintain existing social and political structures that generate inequalities and limit public deliberation and discourse. In the American context, partnerships appear to be necessary, but not sufficient, institutional means for governance; those valuing democratic practices will demand more diverse and more deliberative arrangements for resolving questions of economic and social well-being.
To put the American case in a perspective amenable to comparisons, it is useful to contrast it with the elegant Westminster Model of central-

Video: John Fullbright to appear on "Later ... With Jools Holland" tonight
As previously reported, Bearden singer-songwriter John Fullbright spent much of last month in Europe for a tour that included stops in Brussels, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.
While in the U.K., the Grammy-nominated musician gave a solo acoustic performance of "Satan and St. Paul" on "Later… with Jools Holland," a music-based show that airs on BBC Two.
Fullbright's appearance on "Later … With Jools Holland" will air for the first time in the U.S. tomorrow 9 tonight on the music channel Palladia (Cox HD channel 749).
I posted the video of his performance on the show last month, but some good things are worth repeating, leading me to embed it here.
Fullbright will play three sold-out shows this weekend at what he calls his "Point A" – the Blue Door – as part of the Oklahoma City listening room's 20th anniversary. For more information, go to www.bluedoorokc.com. Look for my new interview with him about the Blue Door on Friday.

The Heroes that Were Pigeons
Scaly Leg or Scaly Face are most commonly caused by Knemidokoptes - also spelled Cnemidocoptes, which are eight-legged microscopic mites that are related to spiders, ticks and scorpions - but obviously much smaller in size. They burrow in the face, feet and leg, vent and wingtips.
Different species of mites affect different species of birds. Knemidokoptes are most frequently found in budgies; however, they have also been reported in other species of birds. In canaries and finches, the same mite causes a condition commonly called 'Tassle Foot'. It is also likely that some birds are genetically more susceptible to these mites than others.
These mites are very contagious; therefore, if one bird has it, all birds that it came in contact with need to be treated.
Secondary bacterial infection and arthritis may occur.
It is thought that in many instances, these mites are acquired in the nest, with the infection remaining latent for a long period of time. Early signs of this disease may be seen after six to twelve months.
Other Health Conditions that Could Mimik a Scaly Mite Infection:
Please refer to "Bird Nutrition" for food items rich in Vitamin A.

Yes, it will take time but when LULU gradually makes it's way higher this year, I believe they may decide to split the stock when it reaches above $80, therefore giving you your mid to high $40 target to buy.
Sentiment: Hold
Sounds great. What is your target sell price?
Are you kidding us?
How did you come up with this amount?
Just flipped the coin?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I have a comment for you.. I told you in the post below that LULU is going to $80.
Just wondered, did you cover on your short position yet? You were so so wrong on this one. haha

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 779,537, filed Sept. 24, 1985 now U.S. Pat. No. 4,664,935.
This invention relates to improvements in the coating of workpieces and, more particularly, to apparatus and a method for the deposition of thin metallic films on workpieces, such as semiconductor wafers.
In general, three problems exist in connection with the deposition of thin films on surfaces. These problems are uniformity of film thickness, step coverage of the film over severe geometrical structures on the surfaces, and control of film morphology. When an adatom arrives at the surface of a growing film, it does not necessarily remain at its original point of impact but may migrate for a considerable distance depending upon the surface structure and the nature of the growing film, the temperature of the growing film, and the angle of incidence of the adatom.
Deposition from a spatially distributed deposition source gives a family of arrival angles at the surface to be coated which depends upon the geometry of the eroding target, the geometry of the features of the surface to be metallized, and the source to substrate orientation. In prior art apparatus, the eroding target has a predetermined shape. Typically, it is an inverse conic with a cone angle of the order of 30�. In such a case, the spatial distribution of the deposited material is fixed throughout the deposition cycle.
As is well known in the prior art relating to planetary tooling, the representation of angled arrival by serial cyclic distribution of these angles with the same weighting factor is not the same as those angles represented in distribution all at the same time. This is due to the generation of self-shadowing structures on the growing film near topographically severe structures, such as near unity aspect ratio channels and contact windows. As a result of self-shadowing, the film is not properly deposited in such channels or windows.
To eliminate the self-shadowing or step coverage problem with thin films, heat and bias have been used in the past to increase the mobility of the adatoms. Since angles are represented all at the same time, the problem is severe and a large heating time is needed to gain acceptable step coverage. Unfortunately for this approach, the same mechanism which allows heat to solve the step coverage problem causes large grain sizes and considerable variation in grain size. These faults in film morphology are most troublesome regarding pattern delineation and electromigration. Similarly, RF bias is often required to provide adequate enhancement of step coverage and this presents severe problems, namely reduced deposition rate, grain size variations and contamination of the growing film by material deposited by the system side walls.
Because of the step coverage problems associated with conventional deposition techniques used with workpieces, such as semiconductor wafers, a need exists for improvements in the apparatus and the method of coating workpieces. The present invention provides such improvements.
In the present invention, an apparatus and method are provided to effect the coating of a thin film of material on the face of a workpiece, which may be, among other things, a semiconductor wafer. The deposition source and the workpiece are located within a process chamber which can operate at a specific positive or negative pressure. The deposition source has an emitting surface oriented at an angle relative to the thin film receiving surface of the workpiece to satisfy the reduction or substantial elimination of self-shadowing. Such angle can be in the range of 10� to 45�.
To effect the reduction and elimination of the self-shadowing, the workpiece and deposition source are rotated relative to each other. Specifically, the deposition source is stationary and the workpiece is rotated. The workpiece can be rotated or rocked about a second axis extending longitudinally of the translational path of the deposition source.
A DC bias can be applied to the workpiece to provide the necessary increase in surface mobility along with a mild heating of the process chamber in which the deposition source and the workpiece are placed. At the optimum angle orientation, the bias and heating time required to attain step coverage are minimized. The specific values of angle, bias and heating time depend upon the structure of the surface features of the wafer itself. For example, for a one micron Al/Si (1%) film upon an 8800 A� high, one micron wide channel with 80� to 90� walls, the optimum conditions are: an angle of approximately 30�, a DC bias of about -175 volts, and a temperature equal to the ambient temperature plus the temperature due to heating to the heat of condensation of the arriving material.
The present invention provides a number of advantages including the high uniformity of coating of a thin film layer on a semiconductor wafer which is better than �4% or better across a wafer whose diameter can be 100 mm, 125 mm, 150 mm, or 200 mm. Moreover, small grain aluminum/1% silicon film can be deposited without heat. The apparatus provides for vertical (sideways) deposition of a thin film for minimum particulate generation during deposition. A DC bias of up to -200 volts may be applied to the workpiece during deposition to control step coverage and grain size. Bias value ranges are specified for each geometry of the workpiece and set of deposition conditions. Pre-heating of the workpiece can be achieved to optimize the step coverage at the expense of grain size or simply to outgas the workpiece. An RF sputter etch can be provided for the removal of native oxide prior to deposition.
The primary object of the present invention is to provide an improved apparatus and method for depositing of a thin film on a workpiece, wherein the deposited film is uniformly thick, the deposition provides step coverage over severe geometrical structures on the workpiece, and the morphology of the film is effectively controlled to thereby avoid the problems associated with these factors when a conventional apparatus and method are used for the deposition of such films on a workpiece.
Another object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus and method of the type described wherein a workpiece to be provided with a thin film is mounted adjacent to a deposition source and the source and workpiece are rotated relative to each other as the surfaces of the source and workpiece are at an angle relative to each other to provide for step coverage over geometrical structures on the face of the workpiece without having to heat the workpiece and thereby eliminate the problem of grain size which is normally associated with conventional techniques.
Other objects of this invention will become apparent as the following specification progresses, reference being had to the accompanying drawings for an illustration of several embodiments of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a schematic top view of the apparatus of the present invention, showing a workpiece in position to be coated by a deposition source;
FIG. 2 is an enlarged, fragmentary cross-sectional view of a workpiece which has been coated with the apparatus of the present invention;
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 2 but showing a workpiece coated by apparatus of the prior art; and
FIG. 4 is a schematic side view of the apparatus of FIG. 1.
The apparatus for applying a thin film layer to a surface of a workpiece is broadly denoted by the numeral 10 and is shown schematically in FIG. 1. Apparatus 10 includes a housing 12 having a thin film deposition source 14 provided with a power supply 16 for applying a high voltage to the deposition source. A workpiece 18, such as a semiconductor wafer which is generally circular in configuration, is mounted in some suitable manner on a central shaft 22 coupled to a rotatable drive means 24, whereby the shaft 22 and workpiece 18 can rotate relative to deposition source 14. Thus, when voltage is applied across the deposition source 14, and as drive means 24 is energized to rotate workpiece 18 about the central axis of shaft 22, deposition of a thin film layer of material on the exposed surface of workpiece 18 will occur and such layer will be uniformly applied to the workpiece.
FIG. 2 illustrates how the resulting layer 26 of material is substantially uniformly thick on surfaces 30, 32 and 34 in a recess 36 formed in the workpiece to provide excellent step coverage. By orienting the deposition source and workpiece relative to each other at an angle a as shown in FIG. 1 and by at least rotating deposition source 14 and workpiece 18 relative to each other, the self-shadowing effect resulting from the use of prior art techniques is substantially reduced so as to be almost negligible as shown in FIG. 2. Angle a is the angle formed between an imaginary line 40 generally perpendicular to a thin film-receiving surface of the workpiece 18 and an imaginary line 46 which is generally perpendicular to the emission face/of deposition source 14, the latter typically being a planar sputter source.
Drive source 24 coupled with workpiece 18 can also be coupled to a pair of tracks 44 mounted on the upper surface of the platform 45 fixed in any suitable manner in housing 12. Tracks 44 allow workpiece 18 and drive means 24 to be moved toward and away from deposition source 14 along the direction of line 40. A lead screw 46 coupled to drive means 24 moves the drive means 24 and workpiece 18 when a reversible power drive 47 is actuated, power drive 47 being secured to housing 12.
Platform 45 has a side wall 49 coupled to a shaft 48, the shaft being coupled to a drive means 52, whereby the shaft 48 will rotate or rock drive means 24 back and forth in the direction of arrow 54 (FIG. 4), whereby the workpiece will traverse an arc which is in a vertical plane. This movement of the workpiece will provide for greater efficiency in step coverage and will provide for more uniformity in the coating of the workpiece.
In use, workpiece 18 is mounted on shaft 22 and source 14 is positioned in housing 12 in the manner shown in FIGS. 1 and 4. By appropriately rotating the workpiece relative to the deposition source, the deposition of a thin film can be applied to the workpiece to provide step coverage in the manner shown in FIG. 3. Simultaneously with such rotation, and if deemed desirable or necessary, drive means 24 can be rotated by the actuation of drive means 52 about the central axis of shaft 48. Furthermore, during this deposition step, workpiece 18 can be moved toward and away from deposition source 14 by actuating power drive 47 to rotate lead screw 46. A rack and pinion assembly could be used in place of the lead screw if desired. All of the foregoing degrees of freedom provide for efficient deposition of a thin film on the workpiece by deposition source 14.

Digital Video forum with good Buy and Sell Board?
Hi forum,
I'm looking to sell some video equipment (Sony NEX-VG10 and SEL18200). I buy and sell quite a few cameras and lenses so I know good forums for that kind of stuff, but I'm not familiar with forums on the camcorder/cinematography side of things. Does anyone have recommendations for a good place to post this kind of stuff (other than DPR obviously).
Thanks in advance,

At the beginning of Unova, I was excited for Team Rocket's new arc. However, their darker more mysterious antics began to feel stale and there was just no real reason to feel or care for what they were up to. Even though I was glad, and still am, that their attempts at stealing Pikachu and blasting off [again] had been retired, I missed their personalities. The anime may be targeted at a younger audience, but I feel like the writers and producers could have done a whole lot more with Team Rocket to balance their darker tones with the characters we knew them to be. If they had done that, then I feel like their attempt at a newer Team Rocket could have had more success and not be left with mixed feelings.
Hearing that the old, goofy, fail-at-everything Team Rocket will be back in Episode N doesn't make me feel too content though. I may have felt like Team Rocket's evil schemes may have gotten stale, but I'm not really ready to go back to their old ways entirely. I'd just prefer more of a balance. I felt like the very first couple of episodes of the Original Kanto series had done that well from what I remember.

Re: What was so bad with Dempsey vs Gibbons?
Maybe it was the wrong reason. However much he bulked up he was never able to hurt Wladamir Klitschko or handel him in the clinches.
If he had worked on his speed more he could have given him some problems.
The minimum weight that a fighter can make without detriment to their performence. In Spink's case it is under 175 lb's making him naturaly smaller than say Sam McVea who fought at 211 lb's.
Me neither.
You're telling me Byrd put weight on to fight at heavyweight for the WRONG REASON? Janitor, every modern lightheavyweight/cruiserweight/middleweight that fights at heavyweight puts on weight to fight in that division - Moorer, Byrd, two fighters that have been very successful as heavyweight, then Roy Jones, Toney etc etc.
Name me one modern athlete, who with the advantages of weight training, hasn't bulked up to fight at heavyweight? There are none. You can't possibly argue it'd be beneficial for the likes of Moorer to stay at 175lbs, it'd be suicide for them.
Yeh, Byrd lost to the best heavyweight of his era (apart from Lewis), but he still accomplished a lot, he was ranked the No.1 heavyweight in the world by the Ring going into 2006. I'm not saying he was an all-time great, but he was good.
Also, "natural fighting weight" and "natural weight" are two different concepts in my opinion, each an area as grey as the other.
Natural fighting weight is dependant very much so on age - Ask De La Hoya if he'd still like to make 130, ask Edison Miranda how tough it was for him all of a sudden to make 160 - Other factors also play a role, e.g., diet and amount of training. I really believe the "natural weight" theory is a myth.

Oklahoma City church will host 'Trial of Jesus Christ' dramatization
An Oklahoma City church plans to offer a Lenten program that combines tenets of the law and faith.
A dramatization called "The Capital Sentencing Phase of the Trial of Jesus Christ" will be presented at 9:30 a.m. March 25 at Westminster Presbyterian Church, 4400 S Shartel.
The Rev. Randall Spindle, the church's preaching minister, said the drama has not been presented in Oklahoma before but has been showcased in other states including Illinois, Virginia and Indiana. It will be performed by two Christian attorneys from Chicago: Jeanne Bishop, a Presbyterian, and Mark Osler, an Episcopalian. Spindle said Bishop is the niece of a Westminster Presbyterian couple, Stewart and Sandy Meyers.
Spindle said the court
Bishop is a criminal defense attorney with the Cook County Public Defender's Office in Chicago. She is an adjunct professor of trial advocacy at Northwestern University School of Law and does pro bono work in memory of her sister who was killed in 1990 along with her husband and unborn baby by an intruder at their Winnetka, Ill., home.
Osler, a Yale Law School graduate, is the author of the book "Jesus on Death Row," which features a comparison of the arrest, trial and execution of Jesus to modern criminal law. He is a former federal prosecutor with the Office of the U.S. Attorney in Detroit and now teaches at the University of St. Thomas School of Law in Minneapolis.
Spindle said the Rev. Charles Blizzard, chaplain at Casady School, will portray Jesus, although he will not say a word because Jesus did not speak during his trial, according to Scripture.
Spindle said the dramatization is not a way to advocate for or against the death penalty.
"It's an effort to dramatize the most famous trial and probably the most unjust trial," Spindle said.
"This is designed to make a faith statement."
Sarah Adams-Cornell, the church's director of communications, said it's important to note that Bishop and Osler will use modern-day Oklahoma law to present their cases for and against death for Jesus.
"We usually view the story in an emotional way," she said. "To see it from a legal standpoint — how would an attorney defend or prosecute Jesus? — it's very interesting."
Spindle said the presentation is open to the community at a time when Christians reflect on Christ's Passion.
"It's not a cantata or a pageant — it's different," he said. "It's going to be a wonderful event."

TORONTO 2001 BUZZ: Toronto Launch; LAFF Shifts; Strand's Online Plans; and "Star Wars" Doc Deal
by Eugene Hernandez and Brian Brooks/indieWIRE
>> "Wedding" Bells as Toronto Opens; 26,991 Minutes of Movies Left
(indieWIRE/09.07.01) -- Two years ago it was a carnival, last year a
dockside soiree, and this year the 2001 Toronto International Film Festival
opened with a more swanky affair. After screenings of Bruce Sweeney's "Last
Wedding," guests made their way to the new Liberty Grand Entertainment
Complex for a post-screening fiesta.
Actress Molly Parker and co-star Benjamin Ratner were among the opening night film stars who made their way up the red carpet on opening night,
along with the movie's director. Cheered on by fans restrained by
barricades, they were joined at the screening by filmmaker Atom Egoyan
and his wife, actress Arsinee Khanjian, among others. Press reports
indicated that Monty Python trooper Eric Idle was also in attendance.
Indeed, Toronto's circus has begun.
So, with the Festival kicking off in earnest, it's a good time to consider
some of the mildly interesting trivial facts gathered by the event's sharp
PR staff. A total of 326 films will screen this year, totaling 27,091
minutes of film (that's 385 more minutes of movies than last year). 249
feature films are on tap, while 77 are shorts -- the movies were chosen
from a whopping 2,549 entries. Finally, 54 countries are represented this
year, and 58% of the movies are being screened in a language other than
>> LAFF Taps Rosen As Fest Moves to June
(indieWIRE/09.07.01) -- The times they are a changin' for the annual Los
Angeles Film Festival (formering the LA Independent Film Fest). The IFP/West will move the event to late-June and has named Rachel Rosen to the post of
Director of Programming.
Rosen, a ten-year veteran of the San Francisco International Film Festival
(where she was the Associate Director of Programming), is currently in
Toronto for the Festival here. She replaces Thomas Ethan Harris, the L.A.
Fest's longtime programmer. As the event continues to evolve from its
original mission of showcasing only U.S. indie films, next year the Festival
will expand its program to include international titles. [Eugene Hernandez]
>> Sans a Mega Alliance, Strand Takes its Own to the Internet
(indieWIRE/09.07.01) -- In a pioneering move for a niche distributor, Strand
Releasing is teaming up with DivXNetworks, Inc. to deliver full-screen video
over the Internet. Strand plans to sell a download of its 1995 film, "World
and Time Enough," online using the DivX Open Video System. The L.A. based
distribution company, known for its emphasis on challenging art-house and
gay-themed indie and foreign films, will use the technology to allow rental
of the film for five days from its web site (www.strandreleasing.com).
This is the first move by an indie distributor to offer its films via the
Internet and comes on the heels of recent announcements by big Hollywood
studios including the yet-to-be-named alliance by Sony, Warner, Universal, Paramount and MGM, as well as the just announced partnership between Disney and News Corp.
Still, Strand will only offer one film at this time. The film, which won
praise from critics and audiences alike, focuses on a twenty-something
couple facing life challenges related to love and morality. Other Strand
titles include "Edge of Seventeen," "Steam," "Monkey's Mask," and the upcoming "Burnt Money," and "Princesa." [Brian Brooks]
>> Cinema Guild Gets "Star Wars" Doc
(indieWIRE/09.07.01) -- While it probably won't be acquiring films here in
Toronto, small indie distributor The Cinema Guild has announced a deal as
the Fest kicks off. The company nabbed domestic rights to Tariq Jalil's 'Star
Wars' phenomenon doc, "A Galaxy Far Far Away." Michael Roban sold the film, out of its screening at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival -- the movie also screened at Slamdance, among other fests.
"The neat thing about [the film] is that it puts a different face on 'Star
Wars' fans," Cinema Guild's Michael Tuckman told indieWIRE yesterday.
Notably, Tuckman told indieWIRE that The Cinema Guild intends to release the
movie at video-capable theaters, including The Pioneer in New York, The
Brattle in Boston, Wiggly World in Seattle, Facets in Chicago, and the
Laemmle Sunset 5 in L.A. He intends to key the release to October 16th, the
street date for the "Phantom Menace" DVD.
Set to make the trip to Toronto to scope out new movies, Tuckman also told
indieWIRE yesterday, "Since we're not coming in with seven-figure
checkbooks, we get to survey films without the huge pressure of having to
come back with four films." [Eugene Hernandez]

Dorothy Was Right....
Saturday, August 08, 2009
There's no place like home! I have been waiting to be home since Wednesday.
The fabric dye workshop is finally over. I spent the week with some fantastic people, artists all. Their creative energy just oozed all over the place, and we fed off each other's inspirations.
Have you ever taken a workshop that gave you too much information and too many choices? This was one of those. Each day we would begin with the instructor telling us the processes we were going to explore. She would begin with showing us some of her work, carefully describing which colors she used, the methods for each piece, and what not to do as well as what to do. Then she would discuss the various dyes and methods, along with information about various fabrics and textiles, and how the dyes react on them. A whole lot of eye candy that left me on overload, and I didn't even get started yet.
We would begin with a frenzy, running around like busy ants, grabbing buckets, choosing dyes, snatching fabrics. We dyed in baggies, we layered parfait in buckets, we tie dyed, we fold dyed, we scrunched dyed, and we over dyed.
We dyed large pieces of fabric with three layers of dyes. We dyed clothing. We dyed mercerized cotton, wool, rayon, pimatex, silk. We dyed T shirts, sweatshirts, sweat pants, yoga clothing, dresses, jackets, hats, and still more.
Then we would break for lunch. Ah, a time to sit back, feed ourselves, chat it up, and then back to the dyes.
After lunch, Teacher would introduce yet another method, going through all the routine as before, only with the new technique.
So now we change our focus and begin to obsess over a new thing. The articles lay outside in baggies, on clothes lines, in cat litter trays. Their were some out on the concrete, allowing the sun to do its work along with the discharge products used.
I began with a two yard piece of mercerized fabric. I wanted to make a large piece that looked like the Autumn sky for a quilt I have planned. I use the parfait in a bucket technique. I am aiming for an ombre, where the fabric goes from light to dark along the length of it, all in the same color.
It didn't work. Instead of a steadily deepening color, I got blotches of color with white on it where the dye didn't reach. I gamely say I can still use it. HA.
I move on to discharge dying, and I have a whole lot of fun with that. I discharge on sweatshirts that I picked up at Good Will, so it didn't really matter if they "took" or not.
I did silk screening, and I did the heat transfer thing. I stamp on fabric, which proved to be harder than it looked. At least for me. My stamped fabric did not come out clear at all, but rather blurred.
I did silk marbeling on squares of silk 11x15. That wasn't my favorite thing. I have these marbled pieces of silk with absolutely no idea what I am going to do with.
I was fed well, and stayed moving through the entire day with the exception of during lunch and the morning and afternoon lecture time. I was a puddle by the end of each day.
I was on overload all week long, becoming so exhausted as well as brain dead that I can't begin to say what was on TV or what I read at the end of the day. I was definitely on Zombie overload, and my brain simply shut down.
Now I am home. There's no place like home. Home means that I don't have to run around all day and wear myself to a frazzle. Being home means I don't have to interact with others. Home means I can sit at the computer and do SparkPeople all day if I want. Or I can go to my quilt rooms and play. Home is where I listen to whatever music I want to hear and take naps. Home has my exercise routine on the wall, and my workout tools.
I don't have to take turns at home. I don't have to be cheerful at home. I can be a recluse, grumpy, quiet. I can shuffle around in my tattered slippers, don't have to brush my hair or put on make up. I don't have to be color co-ordinated with my clothing. Heck! I don't even have to wear clothing at ALL at home!
I can sit and get caught up with my mail. I can hold my catty girls on my lap for as long as they need it. I can turn off the brain, go on auto pilot and not be questioned.
And now I can close this blog and do my workout. After all, I am HOME!!!

I admire your staying power...I don't think I could have done it.........Not in so short a time anyway....maybe over several sessions set a week or more apart. My brain doesn't work any more with all that overload.

Glad you had a 'good' time and were able to get out of your routine for awhile.
Hope you were able to still be true to yourself and stay SP focused while you were gone and don't have to backtrack much, if any.
Good to have you back.

The one thing you didn't do is curl up and dye! LOL!! Wow! I don't know if I would survive that! The question is, are you going to dye stuff on your own?
If SP had ruby slipper goodies, I'd send you one!

Those homeschool conferences I used to go to were just like that. Overload information. I was always so glad to get home and do nothing. It often felt like I had time warped around the universe by the time I made it home. No running around your quilt room naked unless your shades are pulled, you don't want gawkers!

How do you sweeten your oatmeal???
Hi all,
I started having oatmeal for breakfast, and I love it. However, I would prefer it a bit sweeter (I don't like it salty, so right now it's a bit bland), but I don't want to put too much sugar into it, and I try to keep away from artificial sweeteners like splenda. Any input?
Thanks in advance! :)
Fri. Feb 22, 9:52am
If you cook your own, you can cook it with 1/2 water 1/2 apple juice. You can also add a chopped apple during cooking.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 9:54 AM
Good idea pp! You can also add some cinnamon which is great for you! Or non sugar maple syrup.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 10:10 AM
When I cook my steel cut oatmeal, I put in some cinnamon and vanilla extract. When I eat it, I add some fresh blueberries (or even frozen in the bottom of the bowl, then put hot oatmeal on top) and a drizzle of honey. Yum!!
Friday, February 22, 2008, 10:39 AM
How do you sweeten your oatmeal???
I add a tablespoon of strawberry jelly. (49 calories)
Friday, February 22, 2008, 11:07 AM
These are all great ideas! I like to add a teeny bit of brown sugar or a few sprinkles of cinnamon and nutmeg. I love oatmeal :)
Friday, February 22, 2008, 11:16 AM
How about a tiny amount of real maple syrup?
I actually don't put anything in mine. Just use plain old fashioned style oatmeal and cook it lightly so the oats have some "chew" left. They are mild and slightly nutty and really understated but they taste really good.
I used to put a little maple syrup in but discovered I don't really need it.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 11:36 AM
OP here... wow, those ideas are GREAT! Now I cannot wait for breakfast tomorrow! Thanks everybody... and keep them coming!
Friday, February 22, 2008, 12:23 PM
OK this may sound gross but I went with it and now I don't eat it any other way. The sweetness in red seedless grapes work perfectly. One grape per spoonful of oatmeal. Sooooo good, then add a bit of cinnamon.
I hate instant because it is not at all good for you. So at work I poor the slow cooked oatmeal into a foam cup and add enough hot water to cover the top of the oatmeal. Then just let it sit like you do with cup of noodles. It is done when all the water has been absorbed into the oatmeal. takes like 4 minutes, and does NOT work with steal cut.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 12:58 PM
My doctor stirs 1 Tbsp peanut butter and some bluberries into hers - haven't tried it yet.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 1:19 PM
I love it with REAL maple syrup, if you just put in 1 tsp it is only 35 - 40 cals, and so worth it.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 1:23 PM
Vanilla Spenda packets
One packet of vanilla splenda per 1/4 cup of oatmeal. And I cut up some apple and sprinkle a little cinnamon, its Delish!
Friday, February 22, 2008, 1:52 PM
it's delish with chopped dates and golden raisins - just the right sweetness without sugar, honey or syrup of any kind
Friday, February 22, 2008, 1:54 PM
Didn't read the above messages - this is how I make mine
I add 70 g of mixed berries (blue, black and raspberries)
a little half and half
a little cinnamon
- I add Vanilla protein powder to mine
Friday, February 22, 2008, 2:06 PM
Try raw agave nectar!
Friday, February 22, 2008, 2:24 PM
Pp -- so funny, I just got agave syrup from Trader Joe's today... never had it before, so I figured I'd give it a try (probably tomorrow morning in my oatmeal)!
Friday, February 22, 2008, 5:00 PM
I chop up 1/4-1/2 apple, 1tsp applesauce, cinnamon, nutmeg & allspice. thats w/ 1/4 cup oatmeal. Mix it all together on the stove or in the microwave & I love it, I love the crunch of the apples & the taste of everything else. I only use nutmeg & allspice sparingly, but I love cinnamon, I also use water instead of milk for the oatmeal. Hope this helps.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 5:26 PM
mmm...I love agave nectar!
I like my oatmeal with peanutbutter and apples.
Looks like we have a lot of oatmeal lovers here. I know I couldn't start my day without it
Friday, February 22, 2008, 6:00 PM
Has anyone ever tried shredded carrot in their outmeal? I was just thinking about those yummy morning glory muffins with carrot, apple, walnuts, rasins, and coconut. I wonder if it would work in oatmeal form? I think I'll try it tomorrow and find out.
Friday, February 22, 2008, 6:04 PM
splenda brown sugar and raisins
Friday, February 22, 2008, 6:13 PM
This is what I do: either sliced banana, apple, or mixed berries, with 2 T Greek yogurt, 1 T almond butter, ground flax seeds
Friday, February 22, 2008, 6:44 PM
I put canned peaches w/light syrup in mine, so I replace some of the water w/the syrup!
Saturday, February 23, 2008, 4:52 PM
FYI: to the person who cooks their oatmeal in a foam cup--you may want to switch to paper--the foam adds a lot of carcinogens when heated up....(Not good to cook in any styrofoam containers!)
I add the following to my oatmeal:
Golden raisins & Dried Cranberries (You can buy these in a big bag from places like Sam's Club.)
A dash of vanilla
Some Cinnamon or Pumpkin Pie Spice
A little milk
Very yummy....sometimes I will add agave nectar, but I tend to stay away from any types of sugar or sweeteners and let the natural fruit sugars flavor my oatmeal.
Sunday, February 24, 2008, 12:25 AM
Every so often, I might get one of those tiny creamer containers of hazelnut coffeemate and add 1 of those in my oatmeal....
Sunday, February 24, 2008, 12:26 AM
Wow! There is a lot of great input here! So positive!!
I ususally buy the instant oatmeal that has apples and cinnamon or raisins and spice. If I make regular oatmeal I will be sure to try some of these suggestions! Thank you all!
Sunday, February 24, 2008, 1:40 AM
I meant usually not ususally hahaha
Sunday, February 24, 2008, 1:41 AM
It is possible to reduce more than this variety of weight if one considerably ups the quality of fresh vegetables, fruits and vegetables, beans and healthy healthy salad in their diet. But most people can't make this transformation quickly

The basic notion is usually that you would like to help aim for 100 factors everyday. Areas sample foods results, though the e-book switches into a lot larger depth concerning ways to placed this kind of straight into process.

I always eat outmeal with fruit yoghurt, dried fruits and some nuts.
It won't be tasteless and not sweet as well.

I have been to several of these races, and the Modesto Half Marathon is definitely my favorite by far. The course is fast, fast enough that I ran my 3-minute PR here. It must have also been the energetic atmosphere; everyone, including the runners, was very encouraging!
I'd like to challenge other sedentary types like myself to run/walk the marathon or half marathon. I can say with some certainty that if I can aim for this, many others can too. Plus it's for a good cause – the Teens Run Modesto program. Couch lovers and runners should all come out for this event because it is history in the making – the Surgical Artistry Modesto Marathon.

CA Stops Oath-Taking of 14,000 Nurses
Byline: REY G. PANALIGAN
The Court of Appeals (CA) stopped yesterday the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the Board of Nursing (BoN) from proceeding with the scheduled oath-taking of more than 14,000 new nurses on Tuesday, Aug. 22, pending a resolution of the case filed against the two agencies.
In a temporary restraining order (TRO) contained in a resolution written by Associate Justice Vicente SE Veloso, the CA ordered a public hearing on Sept. 14 on the petition filed by the College of Nursing Faculty Association of the University of Santo Tomas (CNFA-UST), the League of Concerned Nurses, and Binuklod na Samahan ng mga Student Nurse.
Meanwhile, the PRC presided over the oath-taking of 1,374 new nurses in Cebu City yesterday, even as other nursing examination passers took their oaths in Metro Manila, Bacolod, and Iloilo cities.
A memorandum signed by PRC Chairwoman Leonor Tripon-Rosero said: "Please be informed that the conduct of oathtaking for those who have passed the June 2006 Nursing Board Examination starts today, Aug. 17, 2006, at your respective regions."
In the meantime, the PRC and the BoN were directed to comment on the petition in 10 days. Associate Justices Conrado Vasquez Jr. and Rebecca Salvador de Guia concurred in the resolution.
The CA stopped the PRC and the BoN from enforcing Board Resolution No. 31 which states that "20 test items out of 100 in Test III were very similar in content or substance with the leaked materials, and 90 items out of 100 in Test V were identical in substance, forms, situations and choices with the leaked materials."
"To preserve the rights of the petitioners pending disposition of the subject petition and so as not to render any judgment hereon moot and academic, the temporary restraining order prayed is granted," the CA said.
"Effective for a period of sixty (60) days from receipt of this resolution, the respondents and all those acting in their behalf are directed to cease and desist from enforcing the assailed Board Resolution 31 ..., and from proceeding with the oath-taking allegedly scheduled on Aug. 22, 2006 of those who reportedly passed the June 11 and 26 examinations for nurse licensure," the CA ordered.
In their petitions, the three groups led by the CNFA-UST told the CA that the PRC and the BoN should keep and safeguard the integrity and competence of the Philippine nursing profession "by ensuring that only those who have qualified in appropriate examinations are allowed into the profession."
The CA was also told that they obtained a copy of Resolution 31 of the BoN, but they were outraged upon learning that the board and the commission approved a scheme for using the grades from the other portions of the examinations in computing the grades from the invalidated portions "although the resolution invalidated portions of the nursing examinations given on June 1112, 2006 due to the leakage."
They said that in computing the final grade of the examinees, the PRC committed grave abuse of discretion when it combined the scores in Tests I to IV to the scores in Test V since 100 of the questions in Tests I to IV contained concepts similar to Test V.
"The nurse, who may have actually lacked competence in neuro-psychiatric nursing but was admitted to the profession based on engineered computation of her grade could do some irreversible... The interest of public health and safety demands that only nurses who have been properly screened for their competencies are allowed to perform the tasks assigned to them," they said.
They pointed out that under Section 14 of Article IV of Republic Act 9173 or the New Nursing Law, it is the duty of the PRC and the BN to compute the scores of the examinations based on the results of the tests for the five areas.
"In determining the competencies of the examinees, minus the result of the fifth test in the area of neuro-psychiatric nursing, respondent BN of the PRC deliberately ignored, in violation of Section 14, the objectives of the nursing curriculum and the broad areas of nursing that included neuro-psychiatric nursing as indispensable discipline for all who desire to enter the profession," they stressed. …

The group focuses on the development of exclusive arbitrage strategies, applying a selective opportunity-driven business model.
Its main goal is to produce high levels of profitability every year and to ensure sustainable growth. Since its creation in 1995, ABC arbitrage has benefited from the diversity of new financial markets and an abundance of products. The group firmly believes that this trend will continue to provide the arbitrage business with new fields of endeavour and growth opportunities.

ABC arbitrage group develops three main activities
1 : Third party asset management
Asset management for third parties is exclusively based on arbitrage operations and negotiable securities which can be traded on the majority of regulated markets. On the basis of its risk-management principles, the Group trades exclusively in securities with a sufficient degree of liquidity and appropriate market capitalization, in line with the arbitrage strategy being deployed.
The goal of these investment funds, which manage some of the arbitrage strategies successfully developed by the group since 1995, is to generate returns that are independent of market trends.
These funds, which are not available in France, are housed within ABCA Funds Ireland Plc and are offered only to qualifying investors as defined by the Irish Financial Regulator:
- a "professional client" within the meaning of Annex II of Directive 2004/39/EC (Mifid Directive); or
- an investor who receives an appraisal from an EU credit institution, a Mifid firm or a UCITS management company that it has the appropriate expertise, experience and knowledge to adequately understand the investment (a copy of this appraisal is annexed); or
- an investor who certifies that he/she is an Informed Investor. More specifically:
* he/she has such knowledge of, and experience in, financial and business matters as would enable him/her to properly evaluate the merits and risks of the prospective investment; or
* his/her business involves, whether for own account or the accounts of others, the management, acquisition or disposal of property of the same kind as the property of the Irish domiciled Qualifying Investors Funds.
The recommended minimum subscription is €5 million, although the fund only offers one type of unit for which the regulatory minimum subscription is €1 million.
Since the set up of the first alternative investment fund, in 2007, the offer in third-party asset management has been supplemented on a regular basis with the creation of new funds, enabling the Group to propose a diversified portfolio of alternative products.
While recalling that recent regulations in this field have seen a great number of changes, the group is gradually pursuing its development project for third-party asset management in line with its initial policies, i.e. without haste and above all preserving its track record of consistent profitability.
2 : Proprietary asset management
Each year ABC arbitrage invested part of its funds in the groups' alternative investment funds with the remainder managed under mandate.
ABC arbitrage has itself always been the first investor in each of its third-party fund issues in order to contribute actively to their development, while guaranteeing the resources to grow this activity.
This commitment is an essential advantage in the development of third-party asset management activities for outside investors, in that it is instrumental in establishing a track record, to maintain the activity in times of temporary outflows and to guarantee the convergence of interests between all investors.
3 : Advisory services
With its established expertise in financial markets, the group is also in a position to propose financial engineering consulting services for third party institutional clients or qualified investors.
These initiatives are done on an ad hoc basis and are not a major area of growth for the group.
