The Fine Arts/Studio component of Humanities credit is dedicated to an academic agenda and an academic profile that addresses the following challenges and academic concerns. All fine arts courses at Ferris concentrate class content to address craftsmanship, creative thinking skills, problem solving and at some level art appreciation. Evolving levels of craftsmanship addresses an international concern that has impact on all professions from the medical area to engineering to business. Craftsmanship is best evolved, evaluated and studied at the practical hands on level. All fine arts studio classes dedicate considerable class time to developing better hand eye coordination skills through drawing, painting and sculpting challenges. Evolving creating thinking skills and problem solving stand as this department's top priority. In a future job market in which it is predicted that labor and industry will prove a difficult future in the US it is critical that the creative fine arts at Ferris dedicate the majority of class problems to evolving creative thinking skills and for providing better thinking and practical tools for problem solving.
The FSU Fine Arts Studio courses currently offer entry level studio courses in both two dimensional and three dimensional arts as Humanities and as Cultural Enrichment credit. There is a new growth area in Fine Arts studio classes on this campus that is under the broad definition of Aesthetic Engineering. Aesthetic Engineering is currently focused as academic studio content in the Arts 120 Three Dimensional Design classes but has content and discussion ground in the Arts 101, Arts 102 and at some level in the Arts 130 Experiments in Painting course. Aesthetic Engineering is designed as a campus wide academic bridge concept that will partner with other programs in other FSU schools. Aesthetic Engineering is an academic studio concept with a priority of evolving creative thinking skills and creative problem solving to better tool the student to face the future job market. Aesthetic Engineering attempts at some level to bring real world creative challenges into the classroom. These real world challenges present creative opportunities that move beyond mere discussion or the hypothetical and challenge the student to solve design, concept, engineering, fabrication, marketing and architectural concerns at a high level. Aesthetic Engineering is a creative and contemporary 21st century concept paving new ground for the role and priority for the fine arts on the university campus.

Powerful Lord Shiva Mantra | Mahamritunjay Mantra Free MP3 Download
Lord Shiva Mantra
Maha Mritunjay Mantra Free MP3 Download
Lord Shiva Picture
Recently I launched the new mantras series, in which I bring you the greatest and most powerful mantras to help you with your spiritual growth and life evolution. The first of these great mantras was of course, the Gayatri Mantra, considered the most powerful mantra from the Hindu Vedas. Today I want to present to you another mantra which is of almost equal stature as the Gayatri Mantra, and is considered no less powerful. It is the timeless and profound Mahamritunjay Mantra (Maha Mritunjay). The mantra devoted to Lord Shiva.
Lord Shiva is known as the Lord of Yoga, Lord of all Three Worlds (Bhuh, Bhuvah & Svahah) and he is also considered the Lord for those who are Jyana (Gyan) Yogis, or those who follow the yogic path of Insight & Intelligence. This particular view of the One Lord, serves as a motivating and encouraging source for those who practice Yoga and Jyana Yoga in particular. Lord Shiva is symbolically known as the Destroyer, and that which he destroys is of course ignorance (Avidya) and attachment to the false sense of separate self. My love for Lord Shiva is obvious in the fact that my son is named Shivum .
The Mahamritunjay Mantra is a prayer in praise of Lord Shiva, requesting him to free us from disease, bondage, ignorance and attachment, and bless us with liberation and enlightenment. The full benefits of this mantra are enumerated in the "Benefits" section below.

Although there are several interpretations of this mantra, with subtle differences between each, the one that I like most is the following…
Mahamritunjay Mantra English Translation
O Great Three Eyed Lord of All Worlds. You are the sweet fragrance of life. You are the creator and sustainer. Free us from the terrible diseases of ignorance, attachment and weakness. Deliver us from the cycle of birth and death to freedom and ultimate liberation.
You can get more information and translations at the Mahamritunjay Mantra Wiki Page as well.
Benefits of Mahamritunjay Mantra:
This mantra has been known for ages to bestow the following benefits. In short, it is the mantra for protection, health and liberation.
- Cures diseases, heals and bestows optimum health.
- Protects one from accidents and misfortunes.
- Offers protection from negative forces, both seen and unseen.
- Helps one breaks free from attachments, destroys ignorance and reveals the True Nature of Reality.
- Helps one conquer the fear of death.
- Delivers one from the cycle of birth and death to freedom and liberation.

Miami Dolphins: Release the Kraken!!!!!!!!!!!!
This season has officially become a nightmare.
It started out bad at 0-5, but got muuuuuuuch worse on Sunday when Tim Tebow led the Denver Broncos to a fourth-quarter come from behind victory once Denver forced Matt Moore to fumble at Miami's 36-yard-line.
The win was capped with a 52-yard Matt Prater field goal, which sealed the overtime victory after three straight runs.
This 2011 season is just sad, and the Dolphins are officially in a total meltdown.

On Saturday the Orlando Science Center's monthly "Cocktails & Cosmos" will be crashing the Otronicon gamer festivities with a "rock 'n' roll vibe." From 7 p.m.-midnight there will be two fashion shows presented by Alta Moda and The Beauty Spot, including consultations and mini-makeovers. Deejays from Drop Shop will spin in between sets from live band 7 Months Later. And if you want to be the star of the show, my favorite part of Otronicon, the Rock Band Experience will be set up again this year. Folks can also access the Crosby Observatory until 10 p.m. as well as the other exhibits and, more importantly, video games from Otronicon too. Happy hour takes place from 7-8 p.m., the fashion shows are at 8 and 10 p.m. and the band will play at 9 and 11 p.m. Admission into Cocktails & Cosmos is included with admission into Otronicon, which is $17. Science Center members get in free. Child care also is provided, starting at $25 for the first child and $20 for each additional. This will most certainly be a good time, Otronicon is one of my favorite events of the year. Coupled with a happy hour vibe, it's a must for Saturday night.

ZF-3072: Support for DB2 on i5
This is a general improvement for whatever changes are required for the DB2 adapter on i5. We will coordinate with our i5 team and Tripp Lite on a solution. We should be able to test in a i5 test environment devoted to framework.
make link to ZF-3843
As mentioned in [ZF-905] it looks like it's good attitude to create many subadapters for odbc. Becouse i need adapter for odbc/as400 for pdo i created class Zend_Db_Adapter_Pdo_Odbc_As400 - it strongly based on incubator version Zend_Db_Adapter_Db2 but it's simpler, just to fits my needs.
Db2 and db2/as400 have many differences so maybe it's reasonable to separate it into two classes?

Boyfriend will love it
I bought this early for my boyfriend for his birthday and after receiving it in the mail, I fell in love with it! I was worried at first that it would be too small, but I realized that bulky wallets can become a hassle for men who wish to be as minimalistic as possible when they go out. I think it is a refreshing look, daring to go against the grain with only one money slot and no ID window, but it is still sophisticated and the monogram makes it unique. This wallet, although more compact, is extremely sophisticated and the leather feels amazingly soft. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to buy a gift for their special someone and to those looking to treat themselves.

Beautiful wallet, excellent customer service
I had wanted to get a this wallet monogrammed for my boyfriend for his birthday. The only problem is that I live in Canada and I wasn't sure if it was going to ship in time. I contacted customer service and they expedited the process and gave me updates so that I could get the wallet on time.
When I received it, it was just want I had wanted. Beautiful leather and so soft! Needless to say, my boyfriend loved it. The monogramming really makes it extra special. Thank you Bosca!

This is an Excellent Wallet
I absolutely love this wallet. I had purchased this same model at Nordstrom's about 6 years ago and it finally died. It is the perfect size wallet for me. I probably should buy 2 in case they ever decide to not make this small size again.

The CityDeck in Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA, is a new connective infrastructure along the city's downtown riverfront. It was designed as a series of folding wood planes that establish large-scale connections between the river and a newly renovated city fabric. The folded surfaces were rendered as benches, chaise lounges, and sunbathing platforms at the scale of the human body; and as collective gathering spaces, river overlooks, ramps and steps along and over the river.

It's funny, I caught something on Facebook that seemed a bit strange. Someone I know posted this on Facebook:
In honor of the big wedding on Friday, Use your royal wedding guest name. Start with either Lord or Lady. Your first name is one of your grandparents' names. Your surname is the name of your first pet, double-barreled with the name of the street you grew up on. Let's do this! Post yours here. Then cut and paste it into your status
Seems fun and innocent enough right? Look at the questions that they're asking you. Don't they seem familiar? They're common questions websites ask you when you create secret questions for their websites.
I've heard of people going through Facebook to get people's security questions, but this is direct stuff. aimed at specifically getting these answers. It's getting very hard to keep up with these guys, they're inventing new ways of targeting people.

Clip Zip stuck at sansa flowers
Hello everyone,
First off, thanks for all the info here. I bought the sansa after finding this place. The unit it probably about 6 weeks old, bought from Best Buy, no rockbox, and running the latest firmware. I put in a 32 gig samsung sd card and it locked up when the "refreshing your media" bar was full. I reset the player and the sansa flowers opened and closed twice and that was it. Subsequently I tried everything recommend on the official sansa forum and the tech guy on the phone. Nothing worked and they authorized me to return it. I just thought I'd ask on here to see what everyone thought. Microcenter sd cards of all sizes ran perfectly fine, but I'm not sure the Samsung card is to blame. The only other thing I can think of is that the Sansa updater didn't seem to download correctly onto the player the last time I had it hooked up to the computer. That was before trying the Samsung card. Thanks again
|[Remove Advertisement]
If you are sending it back there isn't much point in making suggestions. My very new clip zip got stuck with an error while in the process of removing rockbox. It turned off after holding the power switch for a while. I always just copy the firmware to the clip root. I would certainly have removed the card before attempting to fix.
It's not recognized by the computer. I'm pretty sure I turned the player off and then took the card out. I think some feedback would be useful in case this sort of thing happens again. the card is fat32 and appears to just be a regular card. I'm also curious if anyone here would know for sure whether this was just a defective player or if something messed it up.
Welcome to ABi
It's doesn't seem likely a particular brand card caused your problem. I've used just about every brand made and none of them have been a problem. Some have performed better than others but that's been as much luck of the draw as anything else. The one that transfers quickest is a 16 GB microcenter no-name that says it's a Lexar. It has a transfer speed that sometimes exceeds the Class 10 rating. I've clocked it at 20 Mbps in faster devices and as much as 6 Mbps in a Clip Zip. It's been dead stable in everything I've tried it in.
If the replacement comes with the 01.01.20 firmware that's the latest and there's no need to update. If it comes with an older firmware I wouldn't bother with the automated updater. It's a buggy POS that takes up space and uses system resources waiting for an update that possibly will never happen. You can easily update manually. The directions and download links for that are here http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum...ad.php?t=64931
A Glossary For Newbies Why Rockbox? FLAC or MP3? How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
thanks for the welcome. I've got several 16 gig microcenter cards and they work well. So do the 8 gig and 32 gig ones. Patriot 16 gig was good too. I don't have a backup clip aside from my wife's, and I'm kinda hesitant to try this card in that one now. The auto updater sucks, I updated it manually before. It looks like it will take almost 3 weeks to get another one in the mail, so if I could fix this, I'd cancel the return. I had not created a folder called music on the samsung, and I had done that previously with the other cards. I read that it makes a difference, although I hadn't read that when I was creating folders called music. I was planning to try rockbox too. Today I will call tiger direct and hh gregg to see what they have. I don't really have another $45 to buy a backup one from best buy at the moment.
You can get a 4GB Clip+ on Amazon with free shipping for $30.
As for the player you have, try formatting it, deleting all the files on it. Set the USB mode to MSC. Now see if it connects properly to your pc. Whenever I get a new Sandisk player, the first thing I do is format it. Some of the Sandisk sample files are often corrupted. With the Sandisk players, you need to make sure your tags are in order. It needs ID3 V2.3 ISO8859-1 tags. Get rid of album artist and other tags the player doesn't support. Get rid of comments. If you have many files, then don't use embedded album art.
I had been editing the tags in foobar if they didn't have them already. So many things were coming up under unknown. Album art rarely came up. I can't get past the flowers, so, there's no way to access anything. Is the zip not supposed to support album and artist tags? Mine showed them. I saw that amazon also had 2 gig models used for $18.
The Clip Zip's most recent firmware is .20, not .18, and the link for it is here

A Glossary For Newbies Why Rockbox? FLAC or MP3? How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
So I've tried some things since my last post. Went back to Best Buy and bought a black player. Rockboxed it. This is like night and day using AKG K550, Grado RS-1, Ibasso P2, Fiio E6 and Audioquest evergreen 3.5 to 3.5 cable. The samsung card now loads fine. Rockbox enables a pretty big increase in volume even when setting the player's volume at 0 db. I left the other EQ settings at default as far as I can tell. With the official firmware I often had to crank the player's volume to max along with the amp's just to get a decent level on stuff mastered in the 80s. With Rockbox I can leave the player at 0 db and maybe put the Ibasso at 75%. Fiio E6 still needs to be near max most of the time. Rockbox is a lot more bassy than the OF. It sounds more correct too. I'm not sure if that's the pitch error being fixed or something else.
This black player feels more solid, and the msd card always goes in without a hitch. On the blue player that I'm sending back, it was almost impossible to get the msd card in most of the time. I like how everything instantly loads. I can't see any reason to ever bother with the OF again.
Glad you're enjoying your fully working player. As to the rest of it...No, just...no.
All that stuff about audible improvements would need to be backed with something more than your subjective impressions to be believable. I just flat out don't believe you can accurately judge max volume levels in the way you say using just your ears.
The same for bass levels. RMAA testing would show if there was a difference in the signal that would cause an increase in bass levels. It doesn't.
If you're hearing something different it would be helpful if you provided RMAA test results of your own. Just saying "I hear a difference" is how the myths and legends surrounding supposed Rockbox sound quality improvements get spread.
A Glossary For Newbies Why Rockbox? FLAC or MP3? How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
Was the player perhaps set to Europe as the 'Region' in the OF and therefore hindered by the EU-mandated volume cap? That could account for Rockbox sounding 'louder'.
That may be it. If it's not a case of the EU setting limiting the volume I stand by what I've said. Rockbox at -0 dB was tested to be the same as a non EU-limited Clip. The settings up to +6 db were included because it was found that it was possible to have them but they tend to introduce distortion.
The same series of test said the frequency response in Rockbox is the same as the OF, dead flat. http://rmaa.elektrokrishna.com/Compa...2016%20Ohm.htm That would have to change in order for there to be an increase in bass. That's why it's suggested if someone is hearing a difference they supply a set of properly done RMAA tests to validate what they're hearing. That would give the developers a starting point to find what's changed and fix it.
A Glossary For Newbies Why Rockbox? FLAC or MP3? How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
I have no idea how to do any of this technical stuff with measurements. I'd be curious to try though. It seems plausible that maybe I downloaded a firmware with EU volume limiting somehow. I can't think of another reason. I actually read that rockbox made the player quieter before I put it on here. With the OF I had to always tweak the EQ with just about every album. Rockbox as it is sounds much better than any of the presents or custom EQing I did with the OF. I seldom change anything with the EQ.
The headphones might be changing slightly since they are new. I've read all nwavguy's stuff and I remember him saying there was some objectivity to burn-in. Whether it was audible or not, I don't really remember what he said about that.
These 550s sound pretty bad when plugged directly into the clip though. They really sound like they lack body without the amp. Double checked to make sure I didn't accidentally turn the amp's bass boost on. Nope. It's not even a huge amount of bass I'm referring to, it sounds adequate.
I've read lots about the O2 and plenty of things that were critical of nwavguy and the objective viewpoint. I tend to go with the objective side. It was this site that steered me away from Hifiman stuff. Brings me back to Canjam 2010. I plugged my RS-1 into whatever hifiman player was there and thought it was pretty bad(like a lot of the expensive gear there). My intent is to try to find the objective truth about this stuff instead of compulsively blowing thousands of dollars on overhyped junk in attempt to reach some kind of audio nirvana that doesn't really exist.
If you mistakenly picked Europe, it's easy enough to fix; just Reset Factory Settings and it will ask you for your Region again. Choose wisely.

Project Homepage: http://osstag.sourceforge.net
A demo installation can be found at http://prevalent-digest.de/osstag/current/
v0.3 final - planning
As 0.3pre1 implements a complete meta-project-information website, we now may focus on the tagging itself.
Features we want to implement in v0.3
- timestamps of tags
- complete history of tags
- edit of tags
- non-editable tags (by project owners)
Current state as of 0.3pre1
- tags are organized as lists
- each information that is tagged may have n tag-lists attached, not just one
- each tag-list is assoziated with a semantic-mapping, which basicly is a description of what (which aspect) is to be tagged
physical mapping: backup.tar.bz2 might have 2 semantic layers wich should(?)/can be tagged seperately -> semantic mapping: encoding -> semantic mapping: content as intended both semantic mappings can have a individual tag-list: -> taglist for encoding of backup.tar.bz2: tar, bzip2, file-structure -> taglist for content as intended: backup, before 2006, restore, customer-data
How-To maintain history
Because each taglist is attached to one semantic mapping, each change could result in a new semantic mapping entry, marking the old one as revised. The attached tags would also be copied. User/Author/Date information could also be attached to the semantic map / tag list.
Example for sem-map 'encoding' of file backup.tar.gz of some project:
id: 1 sem: encoding tags: bzip2, tar author: jan date: 08-AUG-2006
after edit by naj:
id: 1 sem: Encoding tags: bzip2, tar, bunzip2, compressed, taper author: naj date: 09-AUG-2006 id: 1 sem: encoding tags: bzip2, tar author: jan date: 08-AUG-2006
-> so the most recent date determines which taglist is the current head revision
For the implementation there are the following options:
- copy the edited semmap/taglist to another table, referring to the original semmap-id, then updatee the original semmap/taglist
- insert new semmap with new id, maintain 2nd column with IDs to identify belonging semmaps/taglists, optional maintain addiotnally an 'head'-tag for easyier identification of head-versions (but this would violate normal-form .. :(
We'll use the 2nd option without head-tags, following the motto: no optimizations during initial development, leave this to profiling later.
Resulting in the change form (v0.3pre1):
-- semantic mapping CREATE TABLE osstag_semmap ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, phymap_fk int(11) NOT NULL, sem_desc varchar(2000), sem_aspect_fk int(11) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) ); -- assoziations (taglists) CREATE TABLE osstag_assoziations ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, semmap_fk int(11) NOT NULL, original_tag varchar(255) NOT NULL, normalized_tag varchar(255) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) );
to (v0.3pre2)
-- semantic mapping IDs CREATE TABLE osstag_semmapid ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, phymap_fk int(11) NOT NULL, visible boolean default true, ); -- semantic mapping CREATE TABLE osstag_semmap ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, semmapid_fk int(11) NOT NULL, sem_desc varchar(2000), sem_aspect_fk int(11) NOT NULL, date DATETIME NOT NULL default NOW(), user_fk int(11), PRIMARY KEY (id) ); -- assoziations (taglists) CREATE TABLE osstag_assoziations ( id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, semmap_fk int(11) NOT NULL, original_tag varchar(255) NOT NULL, normalized_tag varchar(255) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) );
The question is on how we are going to handle the permissions. For now I just implemented a flag-field (one per tag-list id), which we could use as follows:
- open taglist, everybody may add, edit, remove, ..
- add only, so others may only add new tags to this specific list but may not change or remove existing ones
- fixed, these taglists are as they are, only changeable by the project owners
The project owner would be the one who defines the flag
v0.3pre1 - 30. Jul 2006
OSSTag comes now with a complete Web-Interface to tag just about any project. It supports User-Login/Registration and you can freely provide any Meta-Information on projects you want to be tagged.
The whole release is separated into 4 modules:
- osstag - the tagging engine with xml/http-request interface
- xsltwf - a xml/http-request framework for user-management
- projectpointer - a xml/http-request framework for project meta-informations
- tagaproject - a website combining above three modules in one website, using xml and xslt.
Download: osstag-0.3pre1.tar.bz2
v0.2 - 16. Jun 2006
- aspect oriented tagging
- This release comes with 6 slightly different variants of how OSSTag could be used. As example we chose the FireFox extension Morse for all 6 variants.
- project column added to phymap (-> enables tags to project and sub-parts of project via phypointer)
- minor fixes + 6 variants for testing
- project tag-cloud
- Download: osstag-0.2.tar.bz2
v0.1 - 17. May 2006
This is my first introduction into this. It's purpose is more to have a common base to discuss about OSSTag rather than a fixed solution that can not be changed.
As Introduction take a look at my example at http://prevalent-digest.de/osstag/osstag-0.1/examples/freshmeat/ .
Here I just added some tags to the project 'mdadm 2.5'.
If you follow the link 'mdadm 2.5' to the project-page, the same tag-list can be seen, as well as a simple form to add new tags.
Yes, this is yet only a plain flat tag-structure. So let's start to figure out how 3-level-tagging can be applied on a web-based interface :)
I tried to provide simple and explanatory functions for easy integration into existing websites.
A quick introduction can be found in the src/doc directory: http://prevalent-digest.de/osstag/osstag-0.1/src/doc/osstag.html
How the tags appear is quite configurable via the osstag_config.pm file: http://prevalent-digest.de/osstag/osstag-0.1/src/doc/osstag_config.html

Sadly, the most strained relationship is often between a mother and child. Whether your mother has a mental illness or you are the mother of someone with a mental illness, you understand the heartache that exists when the relationship is damaged or lost. Fortunately, even the most difficult situations can be improved, and working towards reconciliation and restoration with your loved one well worth it.
So, this Mother's Day I encourage you to seek reconciliation with your mother or with your son or daughter. Hurtful words or regrettable actions can be forgiven; do not allow them to rob you of this relationship. Forgiveness is a gift to give and to receive. In many cases, it is the best Mother's Day gift.
Restoring a relationship that has been damaged by mental illness begins with the acceptance that the relationship will be different. Making adjustments that can restore and sustain the relationship, include:
- Realizing that you are not the cause nor do you have the cure for mental illness. Also, realize that you cannot provide all the care needed. Locate resources in your community. Day programs/club houses, NAMI Connection Recovery Support Groups, social services and case management provide social opportunities, support, and professional care that can greatly enrich lives, as well as, lighten the load.
- Education brings understanding, and understanding brings compassion. Contact your NAMI Affiliate for information about NAMI Family-to-Family and NAMI Peer-to-Peer education programs in your community.
- Remember to set and respect boundaries. Keep communication clear and concise. Revise your expectations. You should not expect everything or nothing from another individual, be realistic in your expectations.
- Renegotiate your emotional relationship. Mutual respect will provide equilibrium.
- Taking care of oneself is essential to having a strong and loving relationship. If you are ill, be willing to receive treatment and manage your illness by cooperating with your medical team and taking prescribed medication. If you are a caregiver, do not ignore your own needs. Providing ongoing, long term support requires you to be at your best.

Les Miserables - Trailer
Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe star in Tom Hooper's adaptation of the successful stage musical based on Victor Hugo's classic novel set in 19th-century France, in which a paroled prisoner named Jean Valjean seeks redemption.PT1M29S http://www.theage.com.au/action/externalEmbeddedPlayer?id=d-1zyj2 620 349 June 7, 2012
Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway credits a strict diet of dried oatmeal paste for helping her shed some 11 kilograms for her role in the forthcoming big screen musical Les Miserables.
When I got home, I couldn't react to the chaos of the world without being overwhelmed. It took me weeks till I felt like myself again.
"I had to be obsessive about it - the idea was to look near death," Hathaway told Vogue about preparing for her role as the consumptive prostitute Fantine in the musical version of Victor Hugo's classic 19th century French novel.
Physical deprivation: Anne Hathaway as Fantine in Les Miserables.
Hathaway, 30, told the December edition of the magazine, that she first lost five kilograms to begin filming and then later dropped another seven kilograms by eating nothing but two thin pieces of oatmeal paste a day.
"Looking back on the whole experience - and I don't judge it in any way - it was definitely a little nuts," said The Dark Knight Rises actress.
"It was definitely a break with reality, but I think that's who Fantine is anyway."
Physical deprivation: Anne Hathaway as Fantine in Les Miserables.
Extreme body changes have become part of Hollywood lore, even factoring into the marketing of films. Natalie Portman received much publicity for dropping some nine kilograms for her Oscar-winning role as a ballerina in 2010's Black Swan.
Jennifer Lawrence, who plays the famished star of the life-or-death thriller The Hunger Games, made waves last week vowing never to diet for a role.
Hathaway said it was a rocky transition back into everyday life after filming.

"I was in such a state of deprivation - physical and emotional," she said.
"When I got home, I couldn't react to the chaos of the world without being overwhelmed. It took me weeks till I felt like myself again."
Directed by Tom Hooper (The King's Speech), Les Miserables is scheduled to be released on Boxing Day in Australia and is seen as a strong contender for Oscar nominations.
The film version of the stage musical also stars Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe.

Would be pefect wallet EXCEPT for one design flaw (and it's a deal breaker)
Leather is great, quality is great. BUT, ID window needs to be on the left side of the wallet, not right.
It doesn't make much design sense to have it on the right side of the wallet.
90% of people are right-handed so it's more convenient to have majority of cards on right side of wallet for convenience.
When showing people your id, they look from left to right thereby making the id window on the left side the most sense.
I know I'm not the only one with this view and I hope BOSCA redesigns this in the future. For me, it's a deal breaker on an otherwise perfect wallet.

ZF-11900: Zend_Validate_Hostname::ALLOW_ALL does not match documentation
The manual for Zend_Validate_Hostname says: "For security reasons ALLOW_URI is not contained within ALLOW_ALL." This is not true: ALLOW_ALL is 15, which does contain ALLOW_URI (8). Additionally, the Docstring for both constants says the same: "Allows all types of hostnames".
Either the documentation is incorrect ot ALLOW_ALL should be set to 7 to match the documented behavior.
Doc-Problem, code is correct
I've attached a patch which updates this section of the manual to reflect the actual implementation.
Patch ok. Feel free to commit
Fixed in trunk r24570. Merged to release-1.11 in r24571

ZF-8694: Zend_Form_Decorator_Label Attempts to Translate Labels Twice
There exists an issue with Zend_Form translating labels which becomes apparent when Zend_Translate logging is enabled.
When a form is rendered the form loops through the decorators running their render method. The following code is called as a result of rendering the label.
Zend_Form_Decorator_Label Line #253
$label = $element->getLabel();
$label = trim($label);
if (empty($label)) {
return '';
if (null !== ($translator = $element->getTranslator())) {
$label = $translator->translate($label);
The above code retrieves the label from the element object and the runs validation methods and then proceeds to translate the message. Below is the code for the $element->getLabel() method.
Zend_Form_Element Line #606
public function getLabel()
$translator = $this->getTranslator();
if (null !== $translator) {
return $translator->translate($this->_label);
return $this->_label;
As you can see this method ALSO translates the text before sending it back to the decorator. This means the Element object is returning translated text back to the decorator which then is attempting to translate already translated text. This causes the Zend_Translate class to log a notice in its log file notifying the user it is missing a translation.
The fix is an obvious one, simply removing the duplicate code from the Zend_Form_Decorator_Label dealing with translation will solve the problem as their corresponding elements should already be translating the content for them.
Please note this also is affecting the Submit button and I have not been able to trace which decorator is causing that problem, although I assume the problem is the same. You will probably want to check through all of the decorators to check if any others are doing the same.
With reference to the final note about the Submit button, this has been reported as ZF-8764.
For us this issue is very important, as far as we have an interactive translation mode. It allows to change the site texts right where you see them in the graphical user interface. To do this we have to append stuff to translated strings on the runtime. Like this:
array(dirname(__FILE__) . '/library', get_include_path())
require_once 'Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php';
class TrickyAdapter extends Zend_Translate_Adapter_Array {
public function translate($messageId, $locale = null) {
return parent::translate($messageId, $locale) . '[XY]';
new Zend_Translate('TrickyAdapter', array('en' => array()))
function simple_form() {
return new Zend_Form(
'method' => 'post',
'elements' => array(
'title' => array(
'type' => 'text',
'options' => array(
'label' => 'Bug title',
'submit' => array(
'type' => 'button',
'options' => array(
'label' => 'Send',
'type' => 'submit',
echo "\n" . simple_form()->render(new Zend_View()) . "\n\n";
Under ZF 1.9.7 the code above outputs:
Bug title[XY]
While under ZF 1.10.0 and 1.10.1 it's:
Bug title[XY][XY]
The question is whether the translation should be restricted to the element's or the Label decorator's getLabel() method. I think it makes the most sense to place the translation in the decorator - as close to the user as possible, but I am not sure if this change will break anything depending on the element doing the translation.
The only legitimate place to translate the value is where the value is received - i.e. in element's getLabel() method. Decorator's purpose is to receive some value and wrap it around the current content. Not tu modify it in any way.
This can be fixed fast, by commenting these lines
- Zend_Form_Element_Submit - Line 80 to 83 <-- These most be also commented since you already call the parent method get label, which will result in a double translation from Zend_Form_Element
- Zend_Form_Decorator_Label - Line 260 to 263 <-- Decorator should not be used for translation, it is out of purpose
OK, it's bug hunt days again. Time to bump this issue. Any chance to see it fixed this time? It's been around for ages, as well as the proposed simple fix, like in the previous comment.
BTW, the issue with Zend_Form_Element_Submit has been silently fixed in the meantime, but it still occurs with Zend_Form_Decorator_Label.
Patch attached. Holger - where did you check that the issue with {{Zend_Form_Element_Submit}} has been already fixed. It wasn't in my trunk.
It has not been fixed in Zend_Form_Element_Submit itself - in fact, removing the translate() call there would result in an untranslated label. Something else in the code path has changed so that now only Zend_Form_Decorator_Label is still affected.
I don't know where this change has been made and whether the new behavior is intentional or just happened to stop the bug from occurring. The facts are: with the current implementation, the label gets translated once for Zend_Form_Element_Submit::getLabel() (correct) and twice for Zend_Form_Decorator_Label::getLabel() (incorrect). This might need more investigation, but removing the translate() call from Zend_Form_Decorator_Label::getLabel() would at least be an interim solution that actually works. It could easily be reverted if it turns out to be the wrong place for the fix.
The fix has been proposed and known to work flawlessly by several users for a long time, so I think it would be safe to provide it as a working solution. There are already discussions about restructuring and where translations should actually be done, but that's more of a long term goal.
Somewhere between 1.11.7 and 1.11.10, a change to Zend_Form_Element_Submit was introduced. The label no longer gets translated if the patch to Zend_Form_Decorator_Label is applied. If that patch is reverted, the problem with the double-translated labels shows up again.
An updated patch that works for 1.11.10 is available at http://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/checkout/…
The updated patch of Holger works also fine for me in v1.11.11. Thanks!
Got an entire day wasted figuring out why my label is translated into the wrong text.
For example we got a tag english "or" Translated to dutch to "of" Got translated again english "of" to "van"
Please fix this with the remove translate from the decorator label. That seems to be the right solution.
btw the latest svn revision 24561 still has this problem
Removing the translate code block from: Form/Decorator/Label.php Form/Decorator/Description.php Form/Element/Submit.php
Since translate happen in Form/Element.php, It works fine in my application and solve this issue in v1.11.11 i believe
No updates??
Any updates? The bug is still existent in 1.12.0
@[~ice-breaker] The patch needs a review by the cr-team.
While it's still under review, I would propose the following fix for the Zend_Form_Element Class.
The below allows to pass an arg (named "translation_params" in the proposed fix) through the "attribs" property of the form element that will be used as the variables within the label. In our case, this was necessary because labels may depend on some vars, so we needed a way to pass this vars to the the translator. As the translator doesn't handle vars per default, I had to use the view helper which already handles that.
public function getLabel()
// if there is a label to translate,
// then we check for a valid translator to perform the translation
if ( $this->_label !== null
&& null !== ($translator = $this->getTranslator())) {
return $this->getView()->translate(
return $this->_label;
Regards, Frej.
- {{Zend_Form_Element_Submit}} was fixed with ZF-8764.
- {{Zend_Form_Element}} contains no translation in the {{getDescription()}} method.
- Only {{Zend_Form_Decorator_Label}} needs an update.
Fixed on trunk (25242) and release-1.12 (25243)
(Unit test for Description decorator included.)

Melissa McCarthy is having balance issues. Not the traditional work-family dilemma, but literal balance. As the host of Saturday Night Live, she enters teetering on comically high platform heels, ankles folding as she slips, skids and slides toward the band, all the while refusing assistance—"I've got it! I've got it!"—to the audience's laughing delight.
When we meet at a New York restaurant, there's a balance problem with our table. After the actress plants an elbow, the table lists badly, and both her latte and her fruit plate begin to slide toward the floor.
If this were a Melissa McCarthy movie, she'd probably scream a stream of inventive invective, flip the table over and heave it out the nearest plate glass window. But this is real life, and McCarthy is far more demure in person than the assaultive, audacious characters she so memorably portrays in Bridesmaids, Identity Thief and her latest comedy, The Heat (opening June 28). "The real Melissa will not yell at you like movie Melissa," says Paul Feig, who directed her in Bridesmaids and The Heat. "The real Melissa is the sweetest person you'll ever meet."
She politely summons a waiter. When he fixes the table, McCarthy says, "Thank you," flashing him a smile that reveals her deep dimples. The waiter beams.
High heels and sliding plates aside, there's nothing shaky about McCarthy's life. At age 42, she's happily married to writer-actor Ben Falcone (he played the undercover federal air marshal she cozied up to in Bridesmaids and makes cameo appearances in Identity Thief and The Heat), and they live in Los Angeles with their two energetic young daughters. After more than a decade as a regular on such prime time series as Gilmore Girls (2000–07), Samantha Who? (2007–09) and her current sitcom, Mike & Molly, she's suddenly Hollywood's newest and most improbable "it" girl. And this is why: McCarthy is Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler and Jack Black rolled into a single, subversive female package.
The actress has been riding a rocket ever since her breakout role as a raunchy macho loudmouth who climbs onto a bathroom sink to relieve her food poisoning woes in 2011's Bridesmaids. That same year, she won an Emmy for her role on Mike & Molly. In 2012 she was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for Bridesmaids, the female bonding hit that raked in $288 million worldwide. That her career will only get bigger became clear this past winter with Identity Thief, the first movie on which McCarthy got star billing. A slapstick-filled piffle in which she plays a con woman who rips off a mild-mannered businessman (costar Jason Bateman), Thief scored an eye-opening $35 million its initial weekend in theaters and went on to collect more than $170 million worldwide. And don't forget her two acclaimed SNL gigs and her recent cameosin This Is 40 and The Hangover Part III.
Despite the newfound fame, her hats still fit. Mike & Molly creator Mark Roberts marvels that "the only reason I know she's a movie star is that when I drive home at night, I see her face 50 times, really big, on billboards." McCarthy's own explanation? "I've gotten really lucky."
Part of that good fortune, she suggests, is becoming a role model. "The letters I really love are from young actresses who were worried they had to fit a certain look. They say I've opened it up. And I don't just mean plus-size girls," she says. "You can push things now. With all the great performances in Bridesmaids, it changed how people see funny women."
McCarthy's weight has never been a major issue for her. "I've been every size in the world," she says. "Parts of my twenties, I was in great shape, but I didn't appreciate it. If I was a 6 or an 8, I thought, Why aren't I a 2 or a 4? Now I feel like I have two great kids and the dreamiest husband on the planet, and everything else is just a work in progress."
McCarthy answers questions easily and laughs frequently. "I'm a Midwest girl. I'm chatty. I'll talk to anybody," she says. "In L.A., that frightens people. You talk to somebody in a line in L.A., and it's like you've asked them to remove their pants."
Right now she wants to chat about The Heat, the female buddy comedy in which she plays a foulmouthed Boston police detective who teams up with Sandra Bullock's uptight FBI agent to nab a drug kingpin. "I love that it's two women, that they're good at what they're doing and they're better together," says McCarthy. "I did not want to play two dingbats who suck at their jobs. I'd rather watch a character be good at something and be challenged—there's more to play in that."
Play she does in The Heat, punching out bad guys, climbing through car windows and telling off bosses and would-be swains. "Working with Melissa is like working with a rabid cat," says Bullock. "You have no idea where she is going to go, so you need to let go and just enjoy the ride."
Both stars say the film's most difficult scene was one in which they're drunk in a bar and McCarthy tries to dislodge with a straw a peanut that's stuck up Bullock's nose. "I was like, 'Oh, I'll get it, I'll get it,' " says McCarthy, slurring her words as if soused. "But the peanut was so far up. I was nervous for Sandy that something was going to go terribly wrong and we're gonna end up in a hospital. I was literally up her sinus cavity. It was a very bonding moment. After that, you're friends for life."
Bullock survived, barely. "It was a dark bar, and the straw was not helping," she recalls with amusement. "But Melissa was patient and kind—everything you want your surgeon to be."
The two are now a mutual admiration society, hanging out together with their kids at Disneyland. "We enjoy and obsess over the same things: how we work, how we play and how much we love our family," says Bullock. Then again, "give us a bottle of wine and a dance floor, and there is no telling what will happen."
McCarthy grew up in a close-knit family in Plainfield, Illinois, a small town southwest of Chicago. Her father, Mike, was an arbitrator for a railroad company, and her mother, Sandy, was an executive secretary for World Book Encyclopedia and later for First Midwest Bank. (Both are now retired.) McCarthy has an older sister, Marjorie, and aunts, uncles and cousins galore, including VH1 talk show host and actress Jenny McCarthy. "Melissa's the funniest woman I've ever known," says Jenny. "Every one of her 75,000 Irish Catholic relatives in Chicago is very proud."
She remains close to her parents, who often visit her in L.A. "Some of the most soothing nights I've had over the years are playing cards with Melissa, her husband and parents," says Octavia Spencer, a longtime friend who was nominated for The Help in the same 2012 Oscar category as McCarthy—and won. "In this business, with all its worries and pettiness, it's calming when you're around people who are comfortable [with themselves]." McCarthy attended all-girls Catholic schools—"It was 12 years of plaid and nuns," she says—and then enrolled at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. Her classes in her fashion major, clothing and textiles, left her uninspired: "I wanted to make this weird skirt that's also a turtleneck and also harem pants. And they're like, 'You're going to make a pot holder.' " She quit college during her sophomore year and moved to New York at the urging of Brian Atwood, a friend she met during high school who was hoping to make his way in the fashion world. "She was wasting her time," says Atwood, now a leading shoe and accessories designer (he created those SNL platforms). "I knew she could be a star. I knew how funny she was."
McCarthy flew to New York with $70 in her pocket. "It's what you do at 20. You just jump in," she says. She moved in with Atwood, who immediately signed her up to appear at a comedy club's open mic night. McCarthy dressed in a costume that she says "made me look like a drag queen," went onstage and told stories rather than jokes.
It worked, and she was hooked: "I thought, If this is in any way an occupation, I'm in." She soon graduated from stand-up to acting, taking classes and performing in Off-Off-Broadway plays. To pay the rent, she juggled three jobs, working mostly as a waitress and a nanny.
In 1996 she headed for L.A., where she joined the Groundlings, the acclaimed improvisational comedy theater and school that launched Will Ferrell, Kathy Griffin, Maya Rudolph and many others. There, she found not only inspiration but also Falcone. In her very first class, McCarthy introduced herself by saying she'd attended college in Carbondale, Illinois, declaring, "No one on earth knows where that is." Fellow student Falcone volunteered that, ahem, he hailed from Carbondale. The two teamed up as writing partners and soon were lingering over drinks at weekly Groundlings gatherings at a bar. After a year of platonic imbibing, "we decided if we don't start dating, we're going to become alcoholics," recalls Falcone. They wed in 2005; daughter Vivian was born in 2007, and Georgette followed in 2010.
The couple clearly adore each other. "I got hit with the lucky stick with Ben," says McCarthy. "We got hit with the same lucky stick," says Falcone. "From the very first time we spoke, we were on the same page. We love each other, respect each other and try not to sweat the small stuff. And we really make each other laugh."
"They are a perfect match," says Spencer, who has known the couple since they were courting. "I'm like, 'When will I find my Ben?' And Melissa always tells me, 'He will find you. The right one will come along.' "
McCarthy gave herself a deadline of age 30 to make it as an actress and squeaked in just under the wire when she nabbed the role of accident-prone chef Sookie St. James on Gilmore Girls. "The minute Melissa walked in the door, the casting director and I were, boom, that's it," says Amy Sherman-Palladino, the creator of Gilmore and ABC Family's Bunheads. "Melissa is such a great comic and she's uniquely funny, but like Lisa Kudrow, she can do very, very real moments. Underneath all the insanity that she brings, there's a reality. You can feel for her."
Gilmore is revered to this day for featuring strong female friendships, smart cultural references and fast-paced witty dialogue, a Sherman-Palladino hallmark. "I learned how to memorize 10 pages in 10 minutes," says McCarthy. "You had to be letter-perfect on the dialogue. It taught me how to focus."
Just as she had done on Gilmore, McCarthy played the heroine's gal pal on her next show, Samantha Who?, a critically acclaimed ABC comedy starring Christina Applegate that, hampered by the 2007 writers' strike, barely limped through a second season. "I loved that show! I was with really funny, nice people," says McCarthy, who remains friendly with castmates Applegate, Jennifer Esposito and Jean Smart. And she fondly relates an aha! moment during an early meeting with Samantha cocreator Donald Todd: "He said, 'Well, you're a writer, so if you come up with a funnier line, funniest wins.' It's the first time I remember someone in power saying, 'You're a writer.' "
In early 2010, less than a year after Samantha's cancellation, McCarthy was approached for Mike & Molly, a sitcom about a Chicago teacher and a cop who meet at Overeaters Anonymous, fall in love and marry. The enticement? She was being cast as the lead (opposite stand-up comic Billy Gardell), another first. "I thought, Wow, that's something," she says. She still hesitated, fearful that the show was going to be a never-ending string of jokes focusing on their weight, but says that once she read the script, she realized it was a heartfelt romantic comedy. "It's about a marriage and romance and a new relationship," she says.
The show went on the air that fall and was successful from the start, though it took McCarthy a while to warm up to her character, Molly: "I had to get used to her harshness. She's harder on Mike than I would ever be. But everyone says, 'No, it's funny.' I wanted to make sure that the character never sounded like she was doing stand-up. I wanted to keep her character real, human."
Roberts, the show's creator and former executive producer, praises McCarthy for "protecting her character and understanding [Molly's] humor and humanity. I've worked with actors who just say, 'I want a better joke.' She wants the whole scene to be better. She likes to watch the other actors score. She wants the show to be good."
McCarthy squeezed in filming on Bridesmaids between the M&M pilot and the rollout of the show. She'd landed the part of Megan at the last minute, after cowriter and star Kristen Wiig, another Groundlings friend, pitched her to Feig. McCarthy feared that her take on the character—she envisioned Megan as simultaneously butch and man hungry—"was probably too weird," but Feig loved her audition. "It was hilarious. I like unexpected stuff," he says. "She did it in the most nonstandard way; it gave us so much fuel to write more for her part."
When Bridesmaids opened, critics hailed the film and singled out McCarthy for special praise. The New Yorker's David Denby called her "the funniest," Slate's Dana Stevens said she brought "an unexpected sweetness," and Entertainment Weekly's Owen Gleiberman dubbed her a scene-stealer. The cherry on top of that sundae of acclaim was her Oscar shout-out. On the morning the nominations were announced, Falcone was watching on TV and called her over. "My name came up, and it just didn't register," she says. "I literally couldn't process it. Then Octavia's name came up, and I burst out crying and said, 'Oh my God, Octavia just got nominated for an Oscar.' And Ben goes, 'And? And?' "
She and Spencer enjoyed going through awards season together. "We texted, 'Can you effing believe it? OMG!' " says Spencer of their nominations. "We were just so happy to be at the grownups' table." When the big night arrived, McCarthy walked the red carpet in a pair of sparkly pumps specially designed for her by Atwood. "I had imprinted on the sole to my bff on oscar night," he says.
There will no doubt be more red carpets in McCarthy's future. She and Falcone are working on multiple projects together, including a TV series and a comedy, Tammy, which they cowrote and Falcone will direct this summer; McCarthy will star alongside Susan Sarandon. "I just want to do—it's not the most interesting answer, but I just want to do good stuff," says McCarthy. "The goal is always that the characters are grounded. I like to play an eccentric version of people, but I never like to be wacky, wacky, look how crazy I am."
Also in the next year, she plans to launch a plus-size clothing line ("It's what I always thought I'd end up doing," says the onetime fashion major), work on M&M and other projects, renovate a new, larger house they've bought ("Renovating is one of my favorite things on the planet," says McCarthy, a loyal HGTV viewer) and clear time for her weekly dinner dates with Falcone. "Lately, it's more every other week," he says. "We go out to dinner at 5:12 pm, and we're home by 6:38 and put the kids to bed."
Mostly she's going to enjoy having a life and a career that are where she wants them to be. By 40, she says, one gains perspective. She no longer focuses on "the stupid stuff I worried about at 20—because at 20 you don't have any responsibilities, so of course you're a shallow narcissist. You can't appreciate anything, you're so self-absorbed. I bought into it—I should be taller, thinner, have better hair. But I think that's part of being young. Now, especially with kids, you lose any sense of time or energy to worry about all the little stuff. It's like the chip was taken out.
"Could things change and be better?" she continues. "Could I sleep more? Sure, and maybe I will. Or maybe I'll never sleep again and things will be fine. I've discovered," she says, smiling broadly and lifting her latte, "a love of coffee that has helped my life."

New York, New York
Despite the chill in the air—the result of a three-day ice-in—a bevy of Dallas' most philanthropic wrapped themselves up (in fur, naturally) and made their stylish, undeterred way to the Hilton Anatole Hotel for the 2013 Crystal Charity Ball.
Themed Magnificent Manhattan, the Tom Addis-designed event lived up to its name, with bronzed Erte figures at the doors, Hunter Sullivan crooning the Frank Sinatra songbook, street carts serving food from under umbrellas, a casino for gaming galore and a Fifth Avenue-style area, where guests bid on hundreds of silent auction items. (And this was just cocktails.)
For dinner, notables Annette and Harold Simmons, Gene and Jerry Jones, Lisa and Kenny Troutt, Kelli and Gerald Ford, Nancy Rogers and more followed ball chairman Caren Kline into the crystal-covered Chantilly Ballroom for lobster salad, steak, Champagne and dancing to the music of the James Davis Orchestra. On the way out, revelers enjoyed a candy bar, gifts of New York-themed Tiffany's mugs and a parting partake of bagels and cream cheese. Big Apple, indeed. –Photography by Dana Driensky

ZF-10124: Adding Copy Object functionality to the S3
This implementation of the PUT operation creates a copy of an object that is already stored in Amazon S3. A PUT copy operation is the same as performing a GET and then a PUT. Adding the request header, x-amz-copy-source, makes the PUT operation copy the source object into the destination bucket.
When copying an object, you can preserve most of the metadata (default) or specify new metadata. However, the ACL is not preserved and is set to private for the user making the request. To override the default ACL setting, use the x-amz-acl header to specify a new ACL when generating a copy request.
Attached the fixed for this.
This works well for me. Would be nice to get it in the trunk. Anything we can go to help that?

As legal persons, banks enjoy the benefits AND the responsibilities of persons
In the last few years, we have seen more and more banks acquire title to condo and HOA property after foreclosure. Florida statutes provide that legal title passes upon the recording of the certificate of title.
I am not going to discuss priority here, and who is or is not first mortgagee. We can all agree that once any person take title to the property in an association, they owe assessments – and that includes banks. Ironically, banks are as slow as any delinquent homeowner in paying assessments. Of course, they hope to pass the fees on to the next buyer. However, that does not relieve the banks' obligation to pay assessments.
Then there is the banks' "contract provision" to allow the bank to secure premises when the property is abandoned. It is not to keep the association out – and in condos, associations have an absolute statutory right to enter the property. Banks can hardly claim a contractual right when they change the locks, with the electricity off and create a mold factory, further destroying the property – before they even take title.
The next games banks play is to promise that they will close really soon – they invariably request that the association wait x number of days before filing a lien. At the last minute, they again ask for more time. If associations permit, this can go on for months or years. At one time, associations would try to be reasonable. Unfortunately, you cannot be reasonable with banks because they are not reasonable. Sometimes I think banks think the laws are for the "little people" –not them.
When I get an estoppel request including everything under the sun other than the amount owed, I quote the statutory definition of estoppel and provide the estoppel. The banks' threats mean nothing. It is concerning that some boards are intimidated by the title agent's language that "you have to complete all the questions in this estoppel or you will be violating the law". That kind of "estoppel request" is despicable and untrue. Some requests even state how much is owed, and they confuse condo with HOA. If not so annoying, it would be funny. Since I am known for my tact, I will say it: Banks (and their agents) are frequently bullies and empty suits.
Banks can be liened and a lawsuit filed against them for both foreclosure and damages. How many readers would like to see the sheriff seize bank property to satisfy a debt? I know I would. Let's start with the executive chairs.
Yes, it has been frustrating. I have spent way too much time trying to be reasonable – and you simply cannot be reasonable with banks because most of the time you are dealing with robotons – not to disparage employees but they often have no idea of what is going on beyond the narrow scope of their job. There are so many different departments, title agents, "asset management company", real estate agents, bank departments – it is a maze. I no longer will do that. I will provide an estoppel and meet the statutory requirements. If the bank, title agent, realtor, "asset management company" are late, then I guess they can pay the consequences.
We know the address of record that is on the certificate of title. Now for the real gem. I sent a notice of intent to lien to the address of record for the bank. Do you want to guess what I got back? A form letter saying they cannot honor my request without a loan number. In other words, they deep sixed a demand for payment.
With such incompetence, do you laugh or cry? I say it is time that we begin filing lawsuits en masse — against the banks.

The Migrant Project's enduring message of compassion and community
By Taryn Harrington 09/26/2013
Rick Nahmias started The Migrant Project 10 years ago in the agricultural fields of California. Camera in hand, his sole purpose was to document the "human cost of feeding America." It's a phrase that would come to determine the next decade of his life.
As a writer and photographer, and former researcher for Arianna Huffington, Nahmias had a creative instinct to explore his passion for art and activism. Before the project, he attended culinary school in Napa Valley with the intention of getting into the restaurant business. It wasn't long before he put his cooking ambitions to the wayside — using photography as his medium and food as his subject, he found every book and study on migrant farm workers.
Fifty counties and 4,000 miles later, Nahmias managed to unfold the hardships of California's largest work force. Pictures of men and women working various crops show specific issues — health, housing and education — affecting their communities. The book The Migrant Project: Contemporary California Farm Workers was published by the University of New Mexico Press in 2008. Dolores Huerta, co-founder with Cesar Chavez of the United Farm Workers of America, wrote the foreword. "The truth of the matter," Nahmias said in a TEDx talk at USC in 2011, "is, we can't, as middle-class Americans, often relate to what farm workers are dealing with."
"The cruelest irony in all the work that I did
was the fact that the people who feed the best-fed nation
on the planet cannot often afford to feed themselves."
— Rick Nahmias, photographer and author
Nahmias' goal was to bring awareness to the social issues of underrepresented communities. A graduate of New York University with a double major in film and religious studies, Nahmias has always been drawn to the marginalized. His other subjects include disinherited religious communities and senior Holocaust survivors.
The Migrant Project exhibit traveled across the nation to various campuses and art spaces, and is currently on display at the Ventura County Museum of Agriculture in Santa Paula through late October. Educational speakers and artists, including Susan Zamudio-Gurrola and Donna Granata, will contribute to the exhibit, and Nahmias will make an additional appearance next month.
"What these children have to endure is not typical in an American household," said Zamundio-Gurrola, an expert in 20th century history of Ventura County farm worker housing, "It's high time that someone did an exhibit to expose this, especially in Ventura County, which has such a large agricultural industry."
This is the last time The Migrant Project exhibit will be shown before retiring.
Nahmias' photos are not overtly political or artsy. He intentionally wanted it to be social documentation. The exhibit's 40 black and white photographs, taken with his Nikon FE camera, often portray subjects with humility and dignity.
In one of his most memorable photos, an image of a man in a plaid shirt, sleeves rolled up and a hat covering his hair, stands next to a tower of strawberry flats. The caption informs that workers can fill between 30 and 120 flats a day, at around $1.15 per flat. With his shoulders upright and hands slightly open, he stands with immediacy.
Farm workers make up almost half the work force in California. In Ventura County alone, agriculture accounted for $1.8 billion dollars in revenue in 2011, employing more than 23,000 men and women in the fields, a third of whom are migrant workers, according to a study by The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Most workers make less than $18,000 a year.
"The cruelest irony in all the work that I did," Nahmias later said, "was the fact that the people who feed the best-fed nation on the planet cannot often afford to feed themselves."
In 2009, Nahmias started a program called Food Forward, a grass-roots nonprofit organization that gleans local produce, say from a neighbor's orange tree, that would normally go to waste. It donates 100 percent to local food pantries across California. To date, the organization has contributed more than 1,683,317 pounds of produce. Volunteers, cutely referred to as "fruitanthropists," get to pick, distribute and help donate the food to feed the poor.
Nahmia ended his TEDx talk by saying, "Compassion merged with action equals change." It's a wise lesson for us all.

Good article and for a noble cause, but the one key word missing was "illegal." Try as we might and as badly as some people are reluctant to admit it, a great majority of the farm workers highlighted have entered our country in contradiction to our immigration laws, and for the few dollars they may save us at the market they more than make up for it in what they take in social benefits paid for by our taxes.
