Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

North Korea is showing "signs" of preparing a fourth nuclear test, South Korean Unification Minister Ryoo Kihl-Jae said Monday, with reports of stepped up activity at its main atomic test site.
"There are such signs," Ryoo told a parliamentary committee hearing when lawmakers asked him to confirm the reports.
Ryoo declined to elaborate, saying it would be inappropriate "to comment further here on matters related to intelligence".
The daily JoongAng Ilbo on Monday had cited intelligence reports showing a sharp increase in activity at the North's Punggye-ri nuclear test site since last week
"We are closely monitoring the ongoing situation, which is very similar to the situation seen ahead of the third nuclear test," the newspaper quoted a senior government official as saying.
"We are trying to figure out whether it is a genuine preparation for a nuclear test or just a ploy to heap more pressure on us and the US," the unnamed official added.

When a hip-hop group dedicates its career to creating a culture that enables the masses to understand the struggles of the regular hood cat; speaks inspirational lyrics that have a profound impact on legions of fans; written, produced & featured on over 60 million albums sold without releasing on a major label or enjoying mainstream radio & video support and worked with major artists from TI, Eminem, Young Buck & Keyshia Cole to E-40, Snoop, Biggie & of course Pac doesn't it seem that they deserve the respect of that industry?
For the past 13 years, The Outlawz have made significant contributions to the urban music genre and have been on the grind for mainstream recognition. Nurtured under the wings of the late great 2Pac, The Outlawz are the unsung heroes and underdogs of the Hip-Hop movement.

Even while hiring the services of any such consultant, the concern and dedication of the organizations' top management are major factors for recognition of a quality management system.
A competent consultant would always be ethical, adaptable, observant, communicative, responsible, decisive, sensible and ISO certified professional. The ISO consultant must also have knowledge of the legal and regulatory requirements related to the companies' activities, as well as practical information of the organization's systems, products and also customer expectations before starting the consulting services.

Pulitzer Prize–winning science journalist John Noble Wilford has told some of the world's biggest stories since he graduated from UT almost sixty years ago. The first walk on the moon. The search for life on Mars. The Challenger disaster. Wilford—who received the university's sixth honorary doctorate and spoke at the College of Communication and Information commencement ceremony on Wednesday—won a Pulitzer Prize in 1984 for his reporting of science and space exploration and again in 1987 as part of the reporting team that covered the space shuttle Challenger disaster. His New York Times front-page story about the first walk on the moon in 1969 is the most widely used account of the historic event.

Who doesn't enjoy a lovely relaxing soak in the bath at the end of a stressful day – whether work or children-related? For most of us our bath is a crucial part of our relaxation routine and for that reason alone choosing a bath should involve lots of prior research and planning to ensure it compliments your current bathroom suite. Whether you are looking for small baths, large baths, narrow baths or deep baths you will find a suitable type in our fantastic bath range. Our ever popular freestanding baths selection will create a truly luxurious look for your bathroom and we have a generous range of freestanding bath suites for you to choose from. View our extensive range of baths and you will see how a bath can be an addition to any size or style of bathroom space.
Fortunately today there really are a huge selection of bath styles, shapes, materials and colours to choose from. These include acrylic baths, steel baths, whirlpool baths and corner baths, free standing baths and roll top baths and even double ended baths for twice as much comfort. Becoming ever popular for space compromised bathrooms are shower baths; these consist of a shower area in a bath unit giving you the flexibility to enjoy either. View our extensive range of baths for sale here at Bella Bathrooms and we are sure you will find the perfect bath for you.You can even choose from a variety of bathroom suite packages which feature these different designs of baths.
The most commonly found bath in British bathrooms, the acrylic bath is light in terms of weight, usually white and found in different lengths and designs. This type of bath is particularly great for retaining heat.
Looking for a bath which is guaranteed to last a lifetime? Then you'll be after a steel bath. Our steel baths provide plenty of room and come in the popular 1700mm size to suit almost any bathroom. Some of our steel baths also feature grips and anti slip coatings if you are looking for more security in your bath.
A bit pushed for space in your bathroom? Then keep what limited floor space you have by purchasing a combined bath and shower in what we now term a 'shower bath'. Originally referred to as a P-shape shower bath this clever piece of bathroom equipment comes in a variety of styles today including the very contemporary L-shape. Showers baths can come complete with a glass screen and bath panel.
For years now Hydrotherapy has been hailed as having substantial health benefits and with a whirlpool bath you'll be able to find them out – as well as benefit from them. The benefits from a whirlpool bath include improved circulation, reduced heart rate and muscle tension as well as relief from general all round stress relief. Most of the baths we sell here at Bella Bathrooms can be fitted with a variety of whirlpool capacities – just tell us what you'd like.
Still unusual enough these days to be a bit quirky as well as luxurious, the corner bath is a perfect space saving and design solution for small bathrooms. These are available in both standard and offset lengths.
Just because you have a small bathroom doesn't mean that you have to miss out on having a bath. Small baths are less than the standard size of bath but if you are happy to compromise on size then you can still fit a bath in your suite. The good news is you don't have to compromise on style with a range of small but stylish baths.
An increasingly modern trend for those who have a large enough bathroom to accommodate one, the roll top bath is luxury in bath form. These rather traditional looking baths are good looking enough to become the focal point of any bathroom. Today they're produced in other materials such as stone resin and acrylic in addition to the original cast iron. It's a good idea, if your roll top bath is to be in the centre of a room or in front of a window, to purchase the exposed bath waste kit to hide ugly pipe work.
This luxurious bath style is no longer available only to the rich! Freestanding baths are now reasonably priced so that everyone can afford one if they so wish. Bear in mind that this style of bath is suited to a larger bathroom.
Another increasingly popular item, the double ended bath offers plenty of lolling opportunity for one and a pleasant bathing experience for two. Some of the big bathroom designers in this field have come up with a range and size of double ended baths without the designer price tags to match.
To finish the look off of your bath we have a wide range of bath panels available. They come in a variety of finishes from white to wood and different colours to match the decor of your bathroom.
Such are the choices available when selecting a new bath it can be a little confusing. Read our Buyer's Guides: Baths to ensure you choose the ideal bath to compliment your bathroom size and style.

We All End Up Paying for Unfair Bankruptcy Laws
Stephen Brobeck's claim - in his Oct. 1 response ("Skyrocketing bankruptcy is propelled by easy credit," Letters) to Lloyd Bentsen's Sept. 19 Op-Ed piece ("Get tough on bankruptcy laws") - that credit card marketing is responsible for the rise in personal bankruptcies is not only naive, but contrary to what available data indicate.
According to Federal Reserve Board data, credit card debt accounts for just 3.7 percent of total consumer debt - hardly a significant enough amount to trigger the record number of personal bankruptcies filed recently. In fact, as Federal Reserve Board Chairman Alan Greenspan stated in testimony before the Senate Banking Committee earlier this year, "There is no direct relationship between credit card delinquencies and the rise in personal bankruptcies."
Bank card issuers employ sophisticated prescreening and underwriting techniques to ensure that cards are issued to individuals whose credit history, income and other factors indicate that they can successfully manage the credit extended them. …

Bridal gown designer, Hayley Paige is an expert at all things bridal and fabulous! Even though she's been busy working on her own wedding this coming July (Swoon! We can't wait to see her dress!) she sent us her 5 best tips on bridal dress shopping. We hope her expert advice will help you find the dress of your dreams! Enjoy the Hayley Paige 2015 Fall Collection.
Tip #1: Avoid shopping with too many voices or too many strong opinions. I think it's fun to keep your friends and guests on their toes with regards to your dress.
Tip #2: Try one of each silhouette! You never know what you will end up liking for your big day.
Tip #3: Just go for it. I find more women telling me that they wish they would have gone for something more over-the-top and unique, than regretting a style risk. What's the worst that can happen? You look back realize you were a little wild and a whole lot of fabulous? Confidence is key!
Tip #4: When in doubt, think about what your groom likes on you. I've had appointments where the bride can't decide between two gowns and usually the minute I tell her to think about which one might make her hubby-to-be a little more weak in the knees, it usually helps with her decision making.
Tip #5: Allow yourself to be pleasantly surprised and try one at least one ball gown and one fitted look. Sometimes we garner up this vision of what we see ourselves in on that special day, but once you become that lovely girl standing in front of a sparkly mirror, all bets are off! I've had plenty of brides walk into an appointment thinking about Kate Middleton and walk out of that very appointment mind-blown by Jessica Rabbitt.

I am wondering if anyone has any experience with any of those evices for cleaning chains (plastic containers with brushes and reservoirs for soap through which chains are run and consequently cleaned).
I am still the most successful when I take the chain off and carefully clean it with a rug and some degreasers but that takes time. Do these little plastic gadgets with brushes and cranks actually work? If yes, how good and reliable are hey? Are they worth the money ?

No. 27 BARCLAY STREET.1867.
Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1867, by P. O'SHEA, in the Clerk's office of the District Court of the United States, for the Southern District of New York.
WE have no dislike to religious fictions; but where authentic facts are already too abundant for our limited space, we see no reason to lay aside realities in which divine grace has been the chief agent, and some human heart the real scene of the action, for the sake of suppositions or inventions of the mind, were they ever so pious and interesting.
When the following pages were presented to us by their well-known gifted authoress, we felt delighted with their beautiful diction and their deeply interesting incidents; still we would not have presented the rich sketch, had it been merely a fine tale. We therefore felt no ordinary gratification, when we received, a few days since, the reply which we subjoin, inclosing four pages of a closely-written letter from our venerable friend, Bishop de Charbonnel, containing, in substance, the whole history of Coaina. But let the illustrious authoress herself introduce, not the story, but the history of her admirable heroine:
page: iv-v[View Page iv-v]
WASHINGTON, January 27, 1866. VERY REV. SIR:
After the time and labor I have expended on Coaina, I have it fully in my power to authenticate its truthfulness, under our
dear Monseigneur de Charbonnel's own hand. Some twenty-five or six years ago, this saintly man, then a missionary priest in Canada, came to the Seminary of St. Sulpice, in Baltimore, for the purpose of learning the English language through a regular grammatical course of study. He was a nobleman of rank, and had long before relinquished his title and estates to a younger brother, in France, to become a missionary priest.
I learned this from my venerated old confessor, Father Deluol, who was Superior of St. Sulpice, and who introduced Father Charbonnel to us.
Father Charbonnel was in the habit of coming frequently to our house to converse in English with us, and we considered it a great privilege to entertain him at all times. One evening he brought the little manuscript which I inclose—his first English composition—which he read to us with all the pleasure and simplicity of a child, and to which we listened with the deepest interest.
Once launched on the subject of Coaina he gave us many interesting particulars of her history, not recorded in his little narrative. I was greatly interested, and promised him that I would at some future day elaborate and make it into a story. I have kept it religiously, partly on account of my promise, partly for the touching facts it relates, and partly as a relic of a saintly friend. Although Father Charbonnel was reticent on that point, I am very sure that he was the priest of the mission at the time these events occurred. He would not own to it, but allowed us to infer it. A year or so after he left Baltimore he was made Bishop of Toronto. In the course of a few years he resigned the mitre for the cowl.
In talking of Coaina he expatiated on Coaina's devotion to the Blessed Virgin. Probably I have not been happy in bringing out this fact conspicuously, but no one can read the narrative attentively without feeling it. The names of the characters—except Coaina's—are fictitious, and so are some of the trivial incidents and embellishments.
The situation of the mission, the village, the calvary, the description of the people, the account of the "Taho," are all to be found in the "History of the Indian Missions in North America," which has been one of my favorite books for years past.
In writing Coaina, I had one special object in view, besides illustrating the beauty and triumph of religion, and that is to reprove the sins of uncharitableness, slander, and rash judgment, the three sins which crucified Christ. These are the sins of our age. I sometimes wonder, such is the prevalence of these evils among Christians, if true charity has become an obsolete virtue.
Would to God our clergy, and the Catholic press, would make a crusade against the specious, special, universal and—shall I say it—infernal sin of slander, in all its forms. I don't know that I ever found any thing more applicable to this point, than the history of Coaina.Sincerely and truly your friend,

Walk more and weigh less as you age
Published: Wednesday, May 25, 2005 at 8:34 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, May 25, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
According to public health officials obesity related illness claims 300,000 Americans lives every year, making this growing problem a major cause of preventable deaths in the U.S. In previous columns we reviewed the causes of the epidemic, the most important of which is a chronic imbalance of taking in more energy than we expend. In this last installment of the series we will focus on the exercise side of this crucial energy equation.
Most of us gain extra fat slowly over several years or even several decades, much of this gain resulting from a natural decrease in the underlying pace that our bodies use energy. When we're young, our bodies burn energy more quickly to support growth and more robust physical activities. We also typically have bigger muscles when we're younger which use more energy. Over time, as we age, our bodies slow down this metabolic rate. This means that if we don't compensate by slightly decreasing our intake of fuel (measured in calories in the foods or drinks we consume) we will tend to gradually increase our proportion of body fat as our body stores this excess energy.
Regular exercise is a great way to help prevent the accumulation of excess body fat. Although you can lose weight by simply cutting back on calories in your diet, exercise has been shown to be the best way to keep weight off and to improve overall fitness. Just as dietary changes are often best made as small steps sustained over time, you might find that you have better success in becoming fit by literally taking one step at a time.
Exercise does not have to be exhausting or painful to be helpful. The adage "no pain, no gain" is probably not good advice for someone who is not currently exercising regularly. Not only is it potentially dangerous if you have underlying health problems, but it will likely decrease your chances of sustaining the activity over the long-run. After all, how long are you likely to maintain an activity that makes you feel bad while you're doing it?
Instead, consider starting out by purchasing an inexpensive step counter (or pedometer) and begin counting how many steps you actually take in a day right now. Simply moving around as part of our daily lives is really exercise and can be the basic component of any fitness program.
The problem is that most of us simply don't move around enough. But this could increase significantly with some relatively painless changes in your routine. Let's say that you begin measuring your steps and find out that you walk only about 2,000 steps a day. For most people that's about a mile. The optimum for full fitness would to be to walk about 10,000 steps or about 4-5 miles a day (about one hour a day). But remember, start with where you are now. How can you increase from 2,000 to 3,000 steps a day? One way is to try and drive your car less, and to walk to a short destination if that's possible. Another strategy is that if you have several errands to run to park your car between your destinations and walk to each. Avoid the temptation to find the closest parking space to the store, but rather to choose one on the far side of the lot. Take the stairs instead of the elevator if you have the chance. Take a short walk with a friend at lunch, or walk the dog when you get home rather than just letting him out in the back yard. All those extra steps add up, and if you put your step counter on every day you can measure your progress toward your goal of better fitness.
Remember, just a small decrease in calories every day will really add up (or in this case, subtract) over the long run. Coupled with a gradual increase in your daily activities made up of painless or enjoyable activities this could be just the ticket to fitness that has eluded you for sometime. So what are you waiting for? Get moving! And keep it up! You just might be surprised about how well you start feeling.

Darryl Lenox
Standout standup Darryl Lenox will help kick off a new chapter in Twin Cities comedy with the first big event at the recently opened second location of the Joke Joint in Lilydale, just south of St. Paul. The new club, which is in the old Diamond Jim's space, is a unique setting for comedy with its saloon-style layout and spiral staircases leading up to a spacious balcony. And who better to christen the club than the insightful, incisive Lenox, who says his goal for standup is simple: "I want people to say, 'I've never seen a guy do something like that.' Originality is huge for me." Lenox is a verbal wizard who fuses the conversational pace of storytelling with the high laughs-per-minute ratio of a hard-hitting one-liner comic. The former college basketball player got off to an improbably hot start when he first took the stage at an open mic at Seattle's famed Comedy Underground in 1989 —the very next night he was invited to audition for the Seattle Comedy Competition. "I knew I could be a pretty good ball player, but when I got onstage I felt like I was a six-foot-eight sixth-grader," Lenox says. All weekend he'll be recording his first big-label album with Minneapolis's own Stand Up! Records. Local notable Tommy Thompson will open. 18+.

This Executive Villa is located in the sought after development known as Indian Creek, which is just over 3 miles from Disney. It is one of the closest communities to Disney, so you'll have a genuinely short trip to the magic. Our home sits on a premium lot with open views, our Pool Overlooks the Lagoon. Inside the Villa you will find it has been recently redecorated with designer furnishings and decorated to high standards. Each bedroom features its own LCD TV, the living room features a 52'' LCD TV cable & DVD player. The Villa has a highly equipped kitchen/breakfast room. A formal dining room and spacious great room are both furnished to a high standard.
Indian Creek offers a peaceful residential style setting. There are many community facilities such as Soccer, a Volleyball/Tennis court and small putting green and children's play areas. There is also a jogging track that runs around the nearest of two lagoons. We do regret that we are unable to allow pets or smokers
We had an awesome time during our stay here. The only issue we had was that we never received the check-in/check-out email information so when we got to the house our code didn't work and when we left our code wouldn't lock the door. It all worked out though. The home was very clean and comfortable with enough space for the 5 of us to spread out. The pool area was big and so much fun. The neighborhood was quiet and it was great backing up to the lagoon without any neighbors behind. The house was in a great location and an easy drive to wherever we wanted to go. Thanks for a great stay!
This was our first time renting a home for a trip to Orlando. Normally we stay in a Disney Hotel but for this trip we were going to have more family with us than normal and found it to be much more affordable to rent a home. We had a most wonderful time in this particular location. It was extremely close to the Disney property and to some of the other entertainment locations on highway 192, such as Old Town. We purchased supplies for the home such as food and other things, and a Walmart and Target are located within 15 minutes of this location. The beds were very comfortable and showers always kept hot water after multiple people had showers. Encountered a couple of issues while staying but nothing that would keep us from renting again. The first was an issue getting into the house using the code provided but once we called we were given an alternative code to use during our stay and we were inside within 15 minutes. We had driven down in three cars and parked in the driveway with all three, because the garage has been converted into a game room which we did enjoy. However, the local police do make runs throughout the neighborhood around 2 and 3 in the morning and give out parking tickets. No warnings just right off the bat $50 tickets. We did not know that parking in the driveway and blocking the sidewalk during the night would get us a $50 ticket. So if you go make sure not to park blocking the sidewalk as the cops will come by during the night and give out tickets. The third thing was the amount of cooking items. There could be some more pots and skillets to cook with. However, now that we have stayed here we know to bring some extra cooking items with us next time. These issues like I said will not prevent us from renting this property again but does give some good advice to others as what to expect and plan on bring with them. I am looking forward to staying at this location again. It was an awesome home and great to be on vacation in Orlando and have your own pool with other people jumping and splashing around like at the resorts.
This home is beautifully decorated! It was very clean and the description of the house was accurate. It was located by everything we wanted to do. Philip was so helpful and available with our questions and needs. The only thing lacking was the heated pool; it was too cold to swim in. But we were there during the winter.The highlights were seeing a golden eagle land in the backyard and watching armadillos waddle around at night in the front yard! I would definitely recommend this listing to everyone I know. All in all a great stay and Philip was a really super landlord. Thanks Philip. P.S. We LOVE Florida!!

Saturday I attended a Bridal Shower and was embarrassed for the family. The food was of a poor quality. The bread on the sandwiches was dried out, the scones were also dry and tasteless like if they had been made from bisquick a few days before. The tea was excellent, the room was lovely and so was service. I won't go back because of the food.

My sisters and mother and I have gone to this tea room every year for a decade when we visit Naples. We LOVE this place. The afternoon tea is very traditional, which we love, and also very tasty. We also always share the chocolate bomb, because my mom loves chocolate. She really looks forward to that every year. The staff is very friendly too and the atmosphere is elegant, but not stuffy. Give this place a try, you won't regret it!

Outdoor growing
"each year I assume this time it will go smoothly, each year something new happens" …
Well, that was how I finished my introduction … sometimes you have to be careful what you say or it may be true. I was going to write next about the maincrop plants I'm growing this year followed by my experiment with autoflower.
Due to circumstances beyond my control I've had to dig up my outdoor plants from the ground, transplant them into 100L pots and move them.
Rather than spend the next 200 words cursing and bemoaning fate, lets use this as a experiment so hopefully anyone else who might find themselves in the same situation can benefit from this experience. Nope, sorry can't help myself, lets get the rant over quickly:
NEVER TRUST A HIPPY landlord: for even though you know he has grown them himself at this address, he may threaten to ring the police to denounce you for growing cannabis "yet if I was to move out immediately and leave the plants he would finish growing for me and let me have the flowers when they were ready" ummm … yeah right mate does it look as if I've the word "mug" written over my forehead …
OK rant over …
I've killed two thirds of the marijuana plants and selected the most interesting seven to transplant:
- 2x white widow
- 1x fast neville
- 1x shark attack
- 1x lowboldt which never auto flowerd
- 2x OEW (locally produced hybred)
- 3 AK48 (auto) seedlings in 1L pots
- 3x "chaze"(super auto) seedlings "" ""
ok let's begin:
To see if it would work I selected 1 plant, a white widow, at around 1m 20 tall. When the plants were about 30cm tall, I had pinched them out for a shorter, bushier plant.
- I watered the plant heavily and I clean cut a 60cm radius circle evenly around the stem to a depth of about 45 cm (I would have liked to do more but the ground was like concrete and I had to be able to lift and move my babies).
- Once I had cut I then inserted a shovel and working around the plant gently prised the plant little by little working around the circle to insure I had the main root ball and as much of the tap root as possible
- I then lifted the plant by the root ball and placed in a 40L pot and watered heavily with pHd plain water, misted the leaves with plain water. I put the plant in a concrete block built water tank which I sprayed down heavily, leaving pools of water on the concrete to keep a high relative humidity and erected some shade netting to cover the area.
The plant was then left for 24 hours to see how it coped.
After 24 hours the plant looked pretty good – much better than I expected, so with this mini experiment successful it was time to transplant the other six. Instead of using pots to transport we used black plastic wrapped tightly around the roots. I had to move them up and down mountains where transport could not reach, and even the wheelbarrow struggled. Do you know how heavy these plants and their rootballs (with soil) get?
Next onto the other plants – I decided to leave the easy sativa in situ as she is two to three weeks into flower and there is a serious danger of the plant becoming hermaphrodite if moved at this stage.
Prior to transplanting marijuana I had prepared a new site which provided me with a lot of shade.
I mixed 600L of pro compost with 100L of perlite and 3/4 filled seven 100L pots which I placed against 1 wall of a tumbled down shed. I then dry built a block wall two blocks high and a meter out to protect the black pots from direct sunlight. When the plants arrived on site I planted the pots, watered heavily with 10L of water and 20mm of stress hormone, erected the shade and gave 'em a kiss goodnight. I have to say that at this stage I wasn't very hopeful. Maybe it was partly that my nerves were shattered from the hour long drive to the new location, but I knew the rootballs weren't as well protected as they should have been, and the plants certainly looked to be suffering.
BUT – I checked the plants the next day and 5 out of the 7 seem to be coping fine: 2 have the symptoms of under watering probably for sure due to root damage: they got the right amount of water, but the damaged roots weren't able to take up the water and get it to the leaves.
I'm hoping they'll recover, but accept that weight per plant will probably be a lot less than it would have been.
So given that, and given that I had to get rid of so many, the moral of the story stays the same: never trust a hippy!
For an update, please read here … and it gets worse! read here

Shake it, boys
The movie musical isn't as rare as it once was, but the overwhelming majority of major motion pictures still do not have much in the way of singing or dancing. Yet many of the movies that have been released this year have casts that we would absolutely love to see perform a musical number. So we're leaving it up for you to decide: which movie deserves the Reelzie Award for Cast We'd Most Like to See Break Out Into a Song and Dance Number.
For this one, there was two obvious contenders that stood out above all the rest, and for that reason, there's only two nominees for which cast we'd like to see sing and dance.
Seven Psychopaths: There are few things we'd rather see than Christopher Walken, Sam Rockwell, Woody Harrelson and Colin Farrell doing a musical number together. And honestly, we kinda hope the rest of the cast as well as writer/director Martin McDonagh would join in as well.
The Expendables 2: The cast of this action movie would definitely win for the Cast Least Likely To Do a Musical, but we think that Sylvester Stallone, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dolph Lundgren, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jason Statham and all the rest of the guys would make a fabulous song and dance team.
To get in on all the Reelzie excitement, head over to the Awards Watch page and vote in every category.

In "Signs of the Times" (1829), Thomas Carlyle characterizes what we now call the Romantic period as obsessed with crisis. After an account of what distinguishes Romantic anxieties of decline from 18th century precedents, this essay reads the period's anxiety of impending decline as an index of how those living through this period understood their own historicity. Through close attention to Anna Barbauld's poem Eighteen Hundred and Eleven (1812), it asks about the kind of cultural work done by the forecast of ruin and reflects on how such anticipations of decline produce cultural and literary value, and how they seek, paradoxically, to stave off decline through the very acknowledgement of its inevitability.

Jermyn mayor competing in national bowling tournament
He governs and he bowls.
Bruce Smallacombe is known to his fellow Jermyn residents as the mayor, but not recently. In North Brunswick, N.J., he was just another hopeful amateur bowler.
Mr. Smallacombe was invited to compete in the USBC Masters, a competition that brings together top amateur and pro bowlers from around the world. It was the first time he had gotten an invitation after bowling for most of his life.
He described it "like the Masters in golf with Tiger Woods. It's the best of the best."
"I learned a lot, it was a learning experience more than anything," Mr. Smallacombe said. "I struggled a little bit."
The lanes were slicked with oil so that bowlers needed to adjust their play, he said, standing in different spots and throwing at different angles. It was a reminder that he wasn't in Lackawanna County anymore.
"I can go up to Valley Lanes and throw a strike almost every time I want," he said. "Here, if you miss by one board, it slides."
The 468 competitors, including Hall of Famer Pete Weber, were eased into the weeklong competition with a pro-am practice last Monday.
"I bowled with six different pros," Mr. Smallacombe said. "I made a lot of friends and got a lot of autographs."
He has been involved in state, national and world champion softball teams and he is part of two bowling leagues in the area. About three weeks ago, he threw his sixth perfect game, scoring a 300.
Mr. Smallacombe said he might try to compete in the Masters again, but it would depend on the driving distance.

CD Projekt Red has been keeping a tight lid on their futuristic, open-world cyberpunk RPG, Cyberpunk 2077. They did recently reveal that the game is going to be far bigger than The Witcher 3 in terms of scope and content, which is kind of hard to wrap one's mind around given how big The Witcher 3 is.
The Witcher 3 is one of the best-selling and best-reviewed games of 2014 so far. CD Projekt won't be capitalizing on that success with a quicker sequel, though.
If you were hoping to get some news on CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 game, you'll be waiting for a long, long, long time. In fact, over the next two years, including this one and the next, you won't be getting any new info about Cyberpunk 2077.
It's an unbreakable rule of gaming culture: whenever a glossy trailer comes out, someone will remake it in Minecraft. The latest trailer to be reimagined is that sleek cinematic video for Cyberpunk 2077.
Today CD Projekt RED released the first screenshot of REDengine 3. REDengine 3 is the latest iteration of the studio's in-house engine and will be used for both Cyberpunk 2077 and Witcher 3.
Mike Pondsmith, creator of the roleplaying game Cyberpunk and co-creator of the upcoming CD Projekt RED RPG, Cyberpunk 2077, gives gamers a lot to think about and drool over as he discusses what makes cyber-punk as a genre so appealing and how it's being translated into a living, breathing, visceral experience for CDPR's high-end, next-generation take on the long running fiction.
Later this week CD Projekt RED will deliver the first trailer for their futuristic RPG Cyberpunk 2077. Today they've released a couple images to tease the trailer's contents.
The Witcher developer CD Projekt RED will be showing off their role-playing game Cyberpunk 2077 soon. The trailer might be released as early as next week. Cyberpunk 2077 is based on the pen-and-paper Cyberpunk series. Advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence and cybernetic implants are now commonplace.
John Riccitiello and Bobby Kotick are probably out on a $10 million dollar yacht laughing while reading the interview with CD Projekt RED's lead animator Tomasz Zawada, who has reiterated what the company has been saying all year long: Put your fans first and you won't have to worry about profits.
CD Projekt RED is already thinking to the future with their IP, in fact in a recent interview CD Projekt's Adam Kiciński let loose some exciting new details about their upcoming games, including The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. Basically, neither title will be made to accommodate today's aging console hardware and instead will be focused on Microsoft and Sony's next-generation entertainment devices.
IGN is being auctioned off by Newscorp, much to the surprise of many gamers. CD Projekt's Cyberpunk 2077 receives brand new details. Nintendo comes under fire in a child labor scandal, and Microsoft's Halo 4 gets leaked well in advance of its release. These stories and more in this edition of the Weekly Recap.
The Witcher creators CD Projekt RED announced the full title of their next role-playing game today. Cyberpunk 2077, based on the pen-and-paper RPG series Cyberpunk 2020, is being prepared for an unknown release date.

Marie runs a successful colmado in her community. Colmados are small corner stores that sell anything from bread to batteries. Marie tries to focus on typical Dominican foods such as rice, beans, flour, oil, and fish. Her colmado is located in her home, where she lives with her husband and children.
Life in La Romana can be strenuous. Access to electricity is unreliable at best, running water (if you have any at all) is never potable and the constant threat of hurricanes for half the year weighs heavily on the minds of those whose small homes are made of wood. Despite these difficulties, Marie is optimistic about the future. She hopes to continue investing her profits back into her business and continually expanding her line of products and customer base. In addition, Marie hopes that the extra income will one day allow her to send her children to university. Thank you for lending to Marie and the Cristo y Nuestro Esfuerzo group!

What is the difference between Junction points and Hard Links?
I have read a couple of articles about them but it does not become clear.
Are the following statements correct?
1.) Junction Points and Hard Links can both point to files AND folders
2.) Deleting the target file or folder of a Junction Point makes the "second" reference unusable
Deleting the target file or folder of a Hard Link let the "second" reference still full alive/exist
3.) Permissions, attributes for Junction Points and originals can be different
Permissions, attributes for Hard Links and originals are always the same
Can someone confirm these statements?

We have owned this Compaq V6254 notebook for just 3 days and are absolutely delighted so far. This machine looks divine, with great sleek styling and gloss black cover and hinges. The setting up process is quick and seamless. The machine is fast with 2GB RAM and 2mb cache, everything seems to work very well.

Chris Hansen explains the motivation behind his quest to bring NBA and NHL franchises to Seattle.
AS many of you may be aware, I am leading an effort to build a new, multipurpose sports arena in Seattle's Sodo neighborhood. While much of the discussion about our arena proposal, which is currently being evaluated by the Seattle and King County councils, has rightly centered on issues like financial protections and traffic, I believe the positive impact it will have on our community has been largely overlooked.
I grew up in the Rainier Valley and I saw firsthand the impact that professional athletes could have on the community. They hosted events at nearby Boys & Girls Clubs, encouraged us to stay in school and study, and used their status as a platform to speak out against the drugs and gang violence that were ravishing my neighborhood.
The impact these athletes had on me and other at-risk kids should not be underestimated.
One only needs to look at the work the Seahawks and their coach Pete Carroll are doing in our community to fight gang violence, or the Sounders' work with the King County Boys & Girls Clubs as recent evidence. Perhaps the best expression of this reality comes from Tavio Hobson, founder of Rainier Valley's A Plus Youth Program:
- Seattle fifth-graders will get their camp trip, but teachers refuse to go
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Five things to watch as Seahawks begin OTAs Monday
- Ivar's looks to sell, lease back two venerable restaurant sites
- What the national media are saying about Robinson Cano and the Mariners' hot start to the season
Most Read Stories
"The thought of having the Sonics back in Seattle reminds me of an experience I recently had with one of our youth. A youngster age 11, still bright-eyed, eager and determined to tackle all challenges life presented, said, 'Martell (Webster) told me that even if I don't get a scholarship to play basketball I can go to college for free if I keep my grades high.' These are the powerful messages we promote each day in our program. I cannot emphasize enough the lives a Sonics' franchise could help change."
Beyond simply motivating youth with their words, professional athletes inspire kids to participate in sports. While the names will vary by generation, on the playground we have all been Freddie Brown, Ken Griffey Jr. or Steve Largent. The simple fact is kids emulate people they admire, and when they admire athletes they are more apt to participate in sports.
Why is this so important? Simple. Sports teach critical values like teamwork, work ethic and personal responsibility — values that are too often lacking in the lives of at-risk kids.
Through professional sports, we also have the opportunity to watch some of the most gifted humans in the world perform their craft. While I know art will always be in the eye of the beholder, to those who feel that professional sports do not add the same cultural value as other performing arts, I would simply ask:
• Are the countless hours Ray Allen spent perfecting his jump shot somehow less admirable than those Yo-Yo Ma spent practicing the cello?
• Were Shawn Kemp's highflying acrobatics any less graceful than an Alessandra Ferri pirouette?
• Was Marshawn Lynch's 67-yard game-clinching run in an NFL playoff game any less moving or inspiring than a Pavarotti aria?
Professional sports touch the soul and bind communities in unique and powerful ways. They make us hug strangers, cheer in unison, and high-five fellow fans. They provide parents an opportunity to bond with their children, friends an excuse to get together for a beer and the common ground for people decades apart in age to strike up a conversation that may otherwise never occur.
Professional sports also cut across economic and social divides in an unmatched fashion. The thrill of victory is not distributed by economic status, and the despair of defeat falls as hard on a lawyer as it does on a janitor.
For the big game, the community stands together — rich and poor, old and young, people of all faith and color. For those precious few hours we are just fans, bonded together by a single common interest that temporarily overshadows everything else.
This is my motivation.
Chris Hansen is an investment-fund manager based in San Francisco. He is leading an investment team to bring an NBA and NHL franchise to Seattle.
