Beyond Borders
After seven years in office, immigration hawks still hadn't gotten what they wanted out of George W. Bush. Much to the contrary: In his final year in office Bush called on Congress to create a path to citizenship for some illegal immigrants. With two potentially history-making candidates on the Democratic ticket—Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton—and with no strong and viable anti-immigration champion in the slate of GOP contenders, things were feeling desperate on the federal level for those seeking tough immigration reform in 2008.
Into the fray stepped an army of state lawmakers eager to force the federal government's hand, including Utah's dominantly Republican Legislature. Its members sponsored a litany of bills that year to limit privileges and impose penalties for tens of thousands of people illegally working and living here. The session stirred protests, counter-protests and counter-counter protests, each more heated than the last. But in the height of the debate, it was the little-attended opening event of Westminster College's "Beyond Borders and Fronteras" colloquy that may have changed the course of history.
Among the religious leaders seated behind a table on the stage that evening in Salt Lake City was Marlin Jensen, a rosy-cheeked, gray-haired man in a pinstriped suit and yellow tie. Looking over his wire-rimmed glasses, he leaned into the microphone.
"Immigration questions are questions dealing with God's children," he said in a soft but assertive voice. "With decisions hanging in the balance that have such significant consequences, I believe a more thoughtful and factual—not to mention humane—approach is warranted."
Utah State legislators, Jensen said, should "slow down, step back and carefully study and assess the implications and human costs involved." No one familiar with the lifelong Democrat would have been surprised. Jensen was well known for relatively progressive views at odds with the politics of many of his Mormon brethren, and the longtime member of the LDS Church's Quorum of the Seventy had often taken stands against political intolerance.
But this was different. Jensen wasn't speaking as a Democrat. He wasn't even speaking for himself. "I was assigned to come here by the First Presidency of the church," he said after the event, referencing Mormonism's three most senior leaders, including President Thomas S. Monson.
A few miles away on Utah's Capitol Hill, the legislative train was already moving at full steam. And by that session's end, the legislature had passed a slate of bills aimed at undocumented workers and their families in Utah. One made it more difficult for illegal residents to find jobs. Another tightened restrictions on driving privileges. Another heightened the state's role in immigration enforcement. At best, Salt Lake's pundits surmised, Jensen's words had slowed down the persecution. But around Mormon dinner tables and LDS stake centers across the state, a spark had been lit.
And a hundred miles to the south, an erstwhile legislator was considering the intersection of his faith and his future role as a political leader.

In the word of pokedream today there is not quite as much status differentiation as there once was, nor are there as many happenings. But awards MUST still be distributed, especially given that 2012 is PD's year of rebirth. As such we shall only hand out the VERY MOST IMPORTANT awards.
POSTER OF THE YEAR: Dogar the Brave
- Literally brought PD back to life. Harassed Mewtwo to give me admin powers, then cleaned out the bot situation, spared some life back in Misc. and soon enough the posters came flooding back. The leading charge behind most of the period of high activity in 2012 and a general provocateur. This is a truly momentous occasion: Dogar's first return to the seat of highest glory since 2005, and the first time in recorded history God has not won or shared this award.
RUNNER-UP POSTER OF THE YEAR: God
- This year came close to foreclosing God on BOTH the most prestigious awards. For the first half on 2012, this spot was hotly contested between Hicky and Rayne; but Hicky's activity slowed down going into the summer, and Rayne's has been weak since starting college, while God has still stayed fairly consistently active. This is a year of historic award surprises, but thanks of Rayne and Hicky DROPPING THE BALL, not TOO surprising.
MOST IMPROVED OF THE YEAR: Buckwheat
- The idea of a Buckwheat return was on no one's radar, of the sub par newbs of 2007 -- of whom there were many -- he was pretty inconspicuous. Although he still bitched a lot. However, he made a whirl wind return, slowly becoming a legitimately valued member of the PD community. Who'd have guessed!?

THIRD ANNUAL POKEMASTERSEAN13 MEMORIAL AWARD FOR DISTINGUISHED ACCOMPLISHMENT IN THE FIELD OF ONLINE WOMANIZING: Dogar the Brave

One of the most anticipated movies of 2011, The Help, finally arrives August 10, with a true story of friendship behind it: Author Kathryn Stockett not only relied on her childhood chum, Tate Taylor, to write and direct the film, but based one of her book's most memorable characters, Minny Jackson, on their mutual friend, actress Octavia Spencer. When it came time to cast the part, what better choice to play her? Spencer spoke to More about this story of African-American maids enduring the indignities of the segregated '60s in Jackson, Mississippi.
More: First, Octavia, congratulations! The movie is so well done and your performance is so strong. You must be very happy.
Octavia Spencer: I'm very happy—with everybody else. But it's hard to watch yourself. Other people watch the performance, but I'm watching facial expressions, thinking, Why did I do that?
More: Well, I read the book, and to me, you really captured Minny, who is such a pivotal character. And there's an interesting story to how you got the part.
O.S.: Yes, it's unusual. The director, Tate Taylor, is one of my closest friends,and also Brunson Green, one of the producers—I've known them both for 15 years and done four or five projects with them. Tate always told us about growing up with Kitty [Kathryn Stockett], so he decided to have us all meet in New Orleans maybe six years ago. Kitty told me back then that she wanted to write a book. Six years later, she said she'd finished it and had very loosely based one of the characters on me. So I had to read it!
When I got the novel, it was as thick as a phone book, and I'm an avid reader, but still…But I thought it was really wonderful and when it was published, she asked me to go on the road with her when she did her readings. I also did the book on tape. So that solidified in Tate's mind that he wanted me to play the role. Of course, then we had to convince the studio.
More: How much of Minny is you? Which parts of the character?
O.S.: Really only two things—her size and her sharp tongue. Kitty needed Minny to be a stark contrast to Abileen, who is so poised.
More: Had you worked with Viola Davis, who plays Abileen, before?
O.S.: I did a TV show called City of Angels a long time ago, and she was also in it, but I never had any scenes with her, so I didn't know her very well. It's amazing—now she's one of my best friends. We talk every other day. And Jessica Chastain [who plays the ostracized white wife, Celia Foote]—we talk via email or text all the time. So I came out of this really well, with some really good friends.
More: I just saw Jessica in Tree of Life, and she is so beautiful, and yet she looks completely different in The Help. Beautiful in both, but in different ways.
O.S.: Completely different. She can do anything. In Tree of Life, she's so simple and sweet, and in The Help, this sexy look. And then, for me, getting to work with Viola, who's up there with Meryl Streep! Sissy Spacek is another one of my idols.
More: Did you ever see a Sissy Spacek movie called The Long Walk Home, about the Montgomery bus strike? Whoopi Goldberg was in it, too.
O.S.: I worked on Long Walk as an intern!
More: How in the world did you get that? How old were you?
I pestered those people! No way a movie with Whoopi Goldberg and Sissy Spacek was going to be filmed in that town, the town I lived in, and I wouldn't be a part of it. I was 16 and yes, I was aggressive, because I always wanted to work in the film industry. But my mom was very practical, so I held it in, my desire to be a performer.

I've played every generation apart from the current Black and White generation. The only development seems to be that there's a few new Pokémon, there seems to be no gameplay changes so I've considered that maybe they aren't even worth playing. I can name none of the new Pokémon since Diamond and Pearl apart from the legendaries and the starters, and can otherwise name 493 which I think is quite an achievement and should serve as some kind of threshold.
To me Diamond and Pearl seemed a bit silly. They'd ran out of coherent solutions which made certain Pokémon regional and thus stopped any the usefulness of any kind of cross-regional movement. When they released Heartgold and Soulsilver they were entirely for flavour, there were no Pokémon you couldn't encounter in Diamond and Pearl.
Lumping all the Pokémon in Sinnoh seemed farfetched to me, and I suspect they've done something similar having lumped them all in Isshu, available by some kind of device you get at the end of the game. To me the fact that you can catch all the Pokémon in one place seems to be symptomatic of the fact that the games have become pretty ridiculous, not that Pokémon has died per se but that the series in general doesn't feel as original and adventure-orientated as it did. It also shows perhaps that Pokémon has moved on, and that all the old Pokémon are just novelties, things they're forced to include but that are forgotten by the current generation of players.
What about you? Is your Pokémon history numbered, or have you played everything there is?

Globus Connect is a reliable, high-performance file transfer platform allowing users to transfer large amounts of data seamlessly between systems. It aims to make transfers a "click-and-forget" process by setting up configuration details in the background and automating fault recovery.
Globus can be used for both file transfers between OSC and:
- A computing institution with Globus installed (check with your site provider for availability) or
- A personal computer (known as a personal endpoint)
Users transferring between OSC and another computing institution with Globus installed do not need to install Globus Connect Personal or add OSC certificate authority files, and can skip to Step 3.
More on how Globus works can be found on the Globus "How It Works" page.
sftp.osc.edu. Our general recommendation is that for small files - measured in MB to several hundred MB - to use OnDemand or SFTP. You can continue to use SFTP and get reasonable performance up to file sizes of several GB. For transfers of several GB or larger, you should consider using Globus Online.
To use Globus to transfer from a personal computer, you will need to:
- Install the Globus Connect Personal client on your computer
- Add the certificate authority files to your installation
- Create a MyProxy certificate through Glenn
Those transferring between OSC and another computing institution can skip to Step 3.
1. Installing and Setting Up Globus Connect Personal
- Sign up for a free Globus account
- Download the Globus Connect Personal Client
- Click "Manage Endpoints" under the "Manage Transfers/Data" menu
- Click "add Globus Connect" on the top-right of the page
- Choose a unique name for your endpoint and generate the setup key
- Download the Globus Connect client for your operating system
- Install Globus
- Windows
- Run the Installer
- Copy-Paste the setup key to complete the installation
- Mac
- Mount your drives
- Copy the Globus Client to your application Folder
- Start The Globus Client, and enter the provided setup key
- Linux
- Un-tar the .tgz file with the command
tar -zxvf
- Run
globusconnect, found within the unzipped directory
- Copy-Paste the setup key when prompted
- Un-tar the .tgz file with the command
- Windows
Changing directories accessible to Globus
By default Globus will only add certain default folders to the list of files and directories accessible by Globus. To change/add/remove files and directories from this list:
- Start Globus Connect Personal
- Go to Tools -> Options
- Add directories/files using the "+" button
- Remove directories/files using the "-" button
- Revert to the default accessible directories/files using the "Reset to Defaults" button
- Any changes you make are not made permanent until you press the "Save" button
- Start Globus Connect Personal
- Go to Preferences -> Access
- Add directories/files using the "+" button
- Remove directories/files using the "-" button
- Revert to the default accessible directories/files using the "Reset to Defaults" button
- Any changes you make are not made permanent until you press the "Save" button
2. Adding OSC Certificate Authority Files
This process will add Certificate Authority files to your computer to ensure you are a trusted endpoint. If you installed Globus on a Windows computer, and also installed it to the default directory, we have provided this as a automated process. Linux and Mac installations, as well as Windows installations to non-default locations, will need to follow the manual instructions below.
Automated Process -- Windows Default Installations ONLY
- Download the Certificate Authentication zip archive
- Unzip the archive
- Run the copy_auth Windows batch file from the unzipped archive
- You will be prompted whether to allow Windows Command Prompt to make changes to your computer. Press Yes to continue.
- If the process was a success, the command prompt should read:
Copy was successful!
- If an error occurred, the command prompt will read:
Copy was unsuccessful!
You will need to follow the manual instructions below.
- Download the Certificate Authentication zip archive
- Unzip the archive
- Find your Globus Connect Personal installation directory
- Mac - located within
/Applications/Globus Connect Personal.app/Contents/MacOS/
- To open the contents of the Globus Connect Personal.app folder, right click the folder in Finder and select "Show Package Contents"
- Windows - Typically found within
/Program Files
- Linux - Where you unzipped the tarball
- Mac - located within
- Open the ca directory within the etc directory found in the installation directory
- Copy all the files in the unzipped archive, except copy_auth, to the ca directory located previously
3. Creating a MyProxy Certificate
These steps will create a short lived certificate on OSC's systems to ensure you are a valid OSC user. This certificate will be good for 0.5 days (11 hours), after which you will need to repeat this process to transfer to/from OSC again. Repeating this process will overwrite your old certificate, meaning you will need to change the Credentials for osc#Glenn on the Globus website immediately after.
- Login to sftp.osc.edu using your OSC username and password (ssh to sftp.osc.edu)
- Run the command
- At the first prompt reading "Enter MyProxy pass phrase:" enter your OSC password
- A second prompt reading "Enter MyProxy pass phrase:" should appear. You need to enter a new password/passphrase to use to connect to OSC from Globus. This should be different from your OSC password
- Login to Globus and navigate to the "start transfer" page under the "Manage Transfers" menu
- Enter your endpoint in one of the boxes
- If transferring to a computer with Globus Connect Personal installed, this will be the unique name chosen during installation
- Enter osc#glenn as the other endpoint
- If this is your first time connecting to Glenn through Globus, or if your credentials have expired, you will be prompted to Activate the Endpoint
- Enter your OSC username
- Enter the passphrase created during the "Creating a MyProxy Certificate"
- You can now transfer files and directories both ways by selecting them and pressing the arrow indicating which way you'd like to transfer

Reviews for Mini Hot Dogs 'n' Meatballs
"i agree it does help to read what the submitter writes and the directions. but i also agree it should have been put in the recipe about the party picks. i am a seasoned cook so i can read a recipe and guess what needs to be done. but for those that cant the whole directions are needed and just bcuz someone doesnt know how to do it dont mean someone needs to make such rude comments. some people in this world need to be more considerate but im also glad there are still nice sweet people in this world. WHAT U DO WITH THIS RECIPE FOR THOSE THAT DONT UNDERSTAND IT U PUT EVERYTHING IN THE CROCK POT AS DIRECTED THEN WHEN U SERVE IT U PUT A MEATBALL, PEPPERONI AND LITTLE SMOKIE ON A PARTY STICK ARRANGE IT ON A SERVING PLATTER. DO EACH ONE LIKE THAT :)"
"Made this for the first time for co-workers for a pot luck. Everyone loved it and asked for the recipe. The second time I made it I used a stick of pepperoni and cut thicker slices instead of using the bags of presliced. I liked it much better."
"I made a really big batch of these, & everyone loved them!! We were having quite a few young children over that night so I didn't want to make them too hot, I used ketchup & garlic BBQ sauce. I got quite e few compliments! Everyone wanted to know where I got the recipe!"
"Yummy. Big hit with the guys and kids. I don't believe crab filled endive leaves would have been better for a super bowl party. I think this forum is to comment and give tweaks possibly on THIS recipe?"

When logic and reason fail, eat
Soon after I married, my Auntie Martha took me aside for a heart-to-heart about the inevitable bumps in the road that lay ahead. Whenever she and my Uncle Matthew had one of their major blowups, she knew just what to do: make lamb chops and baked potatoes drenched in butter with a side of green peas for dinner. This simple offering said everything by way of apology that needed to be expressed, no matter who caused the argument, and always managed to restore their domestic equilibrium. Or so she said.
Because no marriage is perfect, least of all mine, you can bet I've cooked a lot of "peace meals" over the years. For minor altercations, my offering's likely to be a casserole of creamy macaroni and cheese or a savory pot roast, two classic comfort foods that transport me and my husband back to our gastronomically and emotionally blissful childhoods. During the absolutely worst snits, he opens a can of soup for dinner, I fix a bowl of oatmeal. We may eat in silence, but at least we're together at the table. And yes, I've broiled many a lamb chop. But after a recent shout-out at my house, I wondered if there's an updated version of Martha's "peace meal" I should know about, be it home cooked, take-out, or delivered.
Searching for answers, I polled a group of married friends to discover the special dish that works like waving a white flag in battle for them and their significant others. To my surprise, instead of a deluge of fabulous recipes, I got responses that sorely challenged Auntie Martha's advice.
When she and her mate are at odds, my best friend admitted, the thought of preparing even a morsel of food for her disgruntled spouse doesn't even cross her mind. "While I have seriously considered serving strychnine at times like that, I can't think of anything special," she said dryly. Similarly, another friend confessed "I am sorry, but I can think of nothing. I have no white flag meal. I am sure Ernie would say I have no such meal because I never admit that I am wrong." I suspected that, although Martha was equally strong willed and self-confident, she would have blanched at both of these comments.
As messages arrived, I began to sense a seismic shift in the way modern women were coping with the squabbles that punctuate their lives. Instead, as one 30-something mom commented, "Now that we have a kid, I have never cooked so little, so distractedly, or so un-aesthetically in my life. There is a deli that sells colossal chocolate chip cookies, bigger than a salad plate. They can smooth over many things." Why slave over a hot stove when you can buy what someone else has prepared, possibly better than you could, with a fraction of your time and effort?
More and more, I got the feeling that something was definitely cooking in these homes, but not necessarily in the kitchen. "Love to help you," another e-mailed, "but we don't associate food with white flags. However, there are other things, but they are beyond the stated scope of your article."
Another answered in a similar, salty fashion., "How do I put this? We, unfortunately, do not have make up food situations in this house. We have make up 'other things'. Sorry to be a bucket of cold water."
"Smoked pork chops," Gwen immediately answered when I asked for her special recipe, "and…." she rolled her eyes suggestively and laughed. It became obvious from my very non-scientific straw poll that when it comes to restoring harmony in the home, Victoria's Secret is now giving every celebrity chef a run for the money. Is Auntie Martha's sage advice truly obsolete?
I'm wagering that her words still carry some truth, and the next time things get super tense around here, I will definitely toss a few thick-cut lamb chops on the grill. But along with the buttery baked potato and fresh green peas, you can bet I'll serve them up with something downright piquanté for dessert, after the meal has worked its magic.
I wonder what Martha would say to that?

I made my first domino robot when the nxt was all new to me, and it didn't work for a variety of reasons. (Probably the language I was using was not shiny and object oriented enough ) The curious can see it here.
Now I'm reimagining the project. It will be able to lay dominos, but the pusher has been redesigned, and there will be a whole lot more programming. Here's some pics first, (and a big fat description later on.):
First moderately successful run, making a 10cm straight line followed by a supposedly 90 degree turn with radius 15cm:
The mechanics: The top motor splits power between a pusher and a gate, using a differential. The cleverly designed gate (when I say clever, i mean it went through at least 100 different permutations to become just right,) which lets the dominos out when down but holds them back when up (this is the shock absorber, used for is 6.5M length), while nozzling them to land centered whatever the size of the domino. The a pusher is made out of that soft axle piece. This winds up around a drum to pull the pusher back, and unwinds to push the domino out. (The end moves back and forth in a track.)
There is a lot to program on this. It builds lines of dominos segment by segment - a line, an arc, a spiral, whatever. These are written and read from a text file, and put in to a Queue for use. The program starts by asking for a file, or allowing you to create one on the go with the buttons or a color bar code reader (the latter two yet to be implemented.)
I have classes set up with proper MVC architecture:
Domino: This is the Controller. It starts the robot, loads and save properties from a properties file, and controls setting up Queues of segments to place.
View: This makes things pretty. It has its own println/printerr functions, which are special because they save the last 8 lines in a Vector. It has functions for alert and confirm, just like on web pages. When showing these "dialogs", it hides any output and changes the button listeners to control the dialog. When the dialog is closed, it prints out the lines again.
PowerButton and ButtonMode: This makes button listeners more useful. You add one listener to it to a button, and then call methods in PowerButton to change which listener is applied. It has things like waitforpress of multiple buttons. More is yet to come, like the ability to have multiple button listener threads.
LineQueue: This loads a file and parses it in to commands. When start() is called, it tells the Robot to make segments, sequentially.
Robot: This is responsible for motors. It has methods like LayLine, LayArc, LaySpiral, whatever. It listens to the sound sensor to make sure a domino falls, and if not sends an alert message to the user for more dominos.
This is all for the robot pictured above. What I'm actually building is a crane arm vehicle, which has a truck chassis and an arm on the back that can place dominos with polar coordinates, using the robot pictured above as a tool head. (You can see a 20z gear on the top where the arm will connect. The drive motors will be removed and the ball moved to their spot for support, the nxt will be removed.)
Having a truck will make the robot much more powerful: it will be able to do splits and joins in the chain of dominos. This will require things like a TruckPilot class, something to move an arm and decide when to move the truck vs when to move the arm, as well as logic for making two lines at once and maybe a light sensor for help finding the end of a line. (Step 1: parallel lines. Step 2: each line does whatever it wants, and the program figures out how to join them automatically.) I'm not sure what features to add after that, but I'm open to suggestions like Bezier curves or calculation of how long a line would take to fall based on spacing, and making lines take the same amount of time to fall...
As you can see, there's a lot do yet. I'm hoping to be able to do parallel lines in time for brickworld, but this could be tough. (Lets not think about the other NXT projects also vying for time. *cough*sumo*cough*) This is just a quick summary, I will go a lot more in to depth after the event....
What do you all think?

Segment 7: Moderated Question & Answer Session
Leadership is increasingly becoming a hot topic in the field and grantmakers often point to strong leadership as one of the key characteristics they look for when assessing the effectiveness of an organization. But organizational leadership is often made up of many players, from a strong executive director, to a highly effective program director, to dedicated and engaged board members and volunteers. And, of course, savvy grantmakers can play a leadership role in the organizations they support. This "Meet the Grantmakers" panel addresses how grantmakers assess the effectiveness of a potential grantee organization's leadership as well as how they can serve to inspire leadership within organizations by serving as catalysts to energize board members, donors, and volunteers.
This presentation was recorded at the Foundation Center's San Francisco library/learning center on September 18, 2007. An audio version of this segment is also available as an mp3 download (right-click and choose "Save Target As").
Requires the latest version of Macromedia Flash Player.
Running time: 31:36
View segments:
Segment 1: Welcome and introductions. Discussion panel: "Give a brief overview of your foundation's mission and philanthropic objectives, and then please also tell us under what circumstances you scrutinize more closely the leadership of a particular grantee or do you find you always look at the leadership closely no matter the circumstances. Have your practices regarding evaluating a potential grantee's leadership recently shifted or consciously been addressed in some way?" [12:29]
Segment 2: Discussion panel: "What does leadership mean to you? When you are sizing up an organization's leadership what does that mean to you? Are you looking closely at the executive director, the board, a project director, or all of the above? And what do you look for in each role that signals effective leadership qualities?" [12:00]
Segment 3: Discussion panel: "Do any of you fund in certain fields where you think leadership qualities need to be more carefully scrutinized, for instance if you fund public education does that mean you look for political savvy in the leaders in whom you invest because they will need to be collaborative, flexible, and consensus builders? Or similarly for those working in social change where people might have different views on how to tackle an issue?" [13:31]
Segment 4: Discussion panel: "As leadership becomes a more prominent filter for selecting your grantees, how do you tackle evaluating the merits of a new or small organization so that innovative or new groups still can compete with the more established organizations that approach you? Or in other words, how does your evaluation of the leadership of a grassroots group differ from how you would size up the leadership of a large, established organization?" [11:47]
Segment 5: Discussion panel: "Sometimes organizations are afraid to be honest and let their funders know about leadership challenges. Tell us how you can help and why they should tell you. Are there occasions you can point to where you have been able to catalyze board members to get more involved or helped with capacity building to help an organization with succession planning?" [19:42]
Segment 6: Discussion panel: "Please give a general example or two of grantees with whom you have worked in which the organization was viewed as a risky grant for you, but you ended up funding it anyway because the leadership of the organization was able to instill confidence in you. How did they overcome your leadership concerns? What can the attendees here learn from what they did right?" [8:46]

With all the technological advancements we enjoy in this day and age you'd think people would have a lot less to complain about. Somehow this is not the case and no matter what the situation it seems that folks tend to look for the very worst – often forgetting how amazing the experience itself might be. A comedian on a late night talk show recently noted the list of gripes presented by a gentlemen with whom he shared a seat row on a cross continental flight. .... Continue Reading this Post

Former US vice-presidential candidate and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin already chose who to root for in the on-going tussle for the presidential nomination of the Republican Party during a district convention in her home town of Wasilla, Alaska. However, the ex-governor refuses to name her presidential bet.
A field reporter for CNN caught Palin after she cast her ballot and asked her who gets her support. Palin declined to be specific and would rather keep her silence on the matter.
"I would not tell you who I voted for in this presidential preference poll," Palin flatly told the reporter. The former running mate of John McCain during the 2008 US presidential election also expressed her interest to see the current presidential nominees go through the long process of selection.
"I do believe that competition makes all of our candidates better," Palin said.
Palin's husband Todd already announced that he is supporting Newt Gingrich's presidential campaign.
The interview also provided Palin a platform to hurl some comments against President Barack Obama and his administration. Palin has been a vocal critic of Obama and his policies, especially on the War on Terror campaign and the rising deficits of the government.
"I want to see the process continue, more debate about who it is who can bust through the Orwellian Obama rhetoric and pandering that we see in the incumbent.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by sherry17 Love the colors Perfect side chair by the fireplace. It is not a huge chair, so it fits in several locations in different rooms. It is a sturdy, well made chair. December 26, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by kgpayne1985 Goes great in my sitting room! I bought this chair straight off the floor because I had to have it. It is so cute and can be paired with almost any other World Market chair. I paired it with the blue reading chair and they go together great. October 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Z Beautiful Chair Love this chair! I needed an accent piece for my bedroom. I wanted color. This chair was perfect in all aspects (height, width, rich classic colors). I get so many compliments about it. It is very solid and sturdy. I can mix and match my pillows (also bought at Cost Plus) and play off any color in the chair. Worth the money, it's a chair you will keep forever! May 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Betty Jo Excellent chair This chair is much better than I thought it would be. The fabric is very nice and the workmanship is excellent. The color is more gold than the yellow my monitor showed but that is more the color I wanted. March 17, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Blue39 Excellent Workmanship, Beautiful & Unique Chairs We love these chairs! I ordered two of these for my living room. The fabric is beautiful. The yellow of the chairs is very rich and I agree with another reviewer that it is really more of a gold than a bright yellow. The chairs are substantial without being extremely heavy. They are fairly easy to move around the living room into different configurations. I think it's important to point out that these chairs are FIRM. The best comparison I can come up with is that It feels more like a chair (sturdy, firm and yet still comfortable) than a couch (plush and soft). They are absolutely comfortable, easy to sit in, plenty wide and roomy enough to sit for hours at a time. I would definitely recommend these chairs, but I think the firmness is something to note because it defies the expectations of a usual armchair/fabric covered chair. I thought these were an excellent price for the quality and I love how unique the look is. I'm really in love with these chairs! October 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mac29 Beautiful This chair is gorgeous and so unique! It makes the perfect staple piece for a living room or bedroom. It was love at first sight for me, but before buying, I shopped around for something of comparable style and design at a lower price. I looked everywhere, and there is NOTHING out there like this chair, in any price range! It is true to the picture, if not just a little bit brighter in person, more yellow than gold. It was uncomfortable at first, like sitting on a rock, but it softened up a lot after just a few days, and it is quite comfy to sit on now. It is so versatile: eye-catching and functional. Great buy! September 6, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by 530mom Gorgeous! Color and fabric are gorgeous. Excellent compliment to the rest of the room. Impressed with the quality of the chair at such a reasonable price. May 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Carrie Lovely This is a beautiful chair. I got it to go in the study and had a difficult time figuring out a wall color because it has so many colors in the fabric that can go well with it. The colors are far more amazing in person than online. I'd say the only change that I would personally make would be to have larger arms on the chair. But regardless of that, it's still comfortable and abolutely lovely. April 14, 2012

The 2013 Celebrity Waiter Luncheon, benefiting The Family Gateway, was as wacky and wild as ever at the Joule hotel. With Dallas celebs such as towering-topper-clad Shane Walker, ready-with-the-jokes Tracy Rathbun and Lynae Fearing, and sweet-as-apple-pie Lisa Garza serving guests, there was a side dish of laughter with every course. Some guests challenged their waiters to raise more funds, resulting in tableside serenades by singers Darren Kozelsky, Aubree-Anna and Liz Mikel. Way to ham it up for a cause!

Cord blood and menstrual flow banking firm says that it is not for sale. [© Akhilesh Sharma - Fotolia.com]
Cryo-Cell has rebuffed a roughly $17.63 million takeover bid from DW Healthcare Partners. The equity group reportedly offered to pay $1.50 per share in cash, a 67% premium over the firm's closing stock price the day the offer was made, according to Cryo-Cell.
The Cryo-Cell board of directors convened last week to review the proposal. After careful consideration they determined that it was inadequate and believe that it significantly undervalues the company and its growth prospects. The board reached the unanimous decision to reject the proposed offer and affirmed that it is not interested in selling the company at this time.
"Without exception, each member of the Cryo-Cell board believes that this is not the right time to sell the company," states Mercedes A. Walton, chairman and CEO. "The board includes some of the company's largest independent shareholders. We are unanimous and resolute in our commitment to maximize Cryo-Cell's future value for all of our shareholders."
Based in Oldsmar, Florida, Cryo-Cell has operated a cord blood banking service since 1992. The firm reports that it has nearly 215,000 clients worldwide, in addition to 21 global license affiliates.
In November 2007, Cryo-Cell launched Célle, the world's first-ever commercial service allowing women to cryopreserve their own menstrual flow containing undifferentiated adult stem cells for future utilization by the donor or possibly their first-degree relatives in a manner similar to umbilical cord blood stem cells.
During fiscal 2009 the company executed technology license agreements for Célle with global partners in China, Thailand, Brazil, Italy, Germany, and Spain. These exclusive technology license agreements are expected to provide Cryo-Cell with future royalty fees from the processing and annual storage of menstrual stem cells.
The firm is advancing collaborative research partnerships to develop a range of regenerative therapeutic applications utilizing Cryo-Cell's patent-pending stromal menstrual stem cell technology for possible future treatment of disorders such as stroke, diabetes, vascular regeneration, and breast cancer. Under the terms of these collaborations, which are funded by the company's respective partners, Cryo-Cell is expected to own 50% of the intellectual property associated with therapies that may emerge from these R&D initiatives.
Consolidated revenues for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2009, were approximately $16.3 million compared to approximately $17.3 million for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2008. The company reported net income in fiscal 2009 of approximately $1.4 million, or $0.12 per basic common share, compared to a net loss of approximately $726,000, or $0.06 per basic common share, in fiscal 2008. The net income in fiscal 2009 is primarily the result of an 18% decrease in marketing, general, and administrative expenses and a 26% decrease in cost of sales compared to the same period in 2008.
As of May 31, the firm had $8.1 million in cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, and other investments and, as of the end of the second quarter, no long-term debt.

|New for 2013!
University of Idaho football fans will be treated to a state-of-the-art video board when the Vandals kick off 2013 home season against Northern Illinois on Sept. 14.
The video portion of the new YESCO board will measure 30 feet by 50 feet, which provides 1,500 square feet of video imaging. With a 19-bit video processing capability, the board has the ability to produce 4.4 trillion colors with a 15 mm pixel display to provide the highest quality resolution.
"We are excited about the partnerships we have developed, which enabled us to provide this dynamic addition to our game day experience and atmosphere," Director of Athletics Rob Spear said. "Not only will we be able to deliver the highest quality video of game action and replays, but our fans can join the fun with interactive promotions."
Lead partners on the project are the Idaho Potato Commission as well as Blue Cross of Idaho and Commercial Tire. The cost of the fixed board, its supporting software and installation is $787,321, all of which is being funded through private monies.
Installation of the new video board on the East End wall and relocation of the existing video board to the West End wall begins June 10 and will be complete by the first week of August.

Panama City - This week's Golden Apple award winner is a third grade teacher at Tyndall Elementary School. Amber Shepard says parent involvement and the wonderful team at Tyndall help make her job a joy.
In Ms. Shepard's third grade class reading is a top priority. Her students work on comprehension, vocabulary, and fluency at special stations. Not only is it an effective way to teach the important components of reading; students say, thanks to Ms. Shepard, now they enjoy reading more. "I like reading because she lets us sit down on these cushions and we can read and it's really fun," said student Paul Scala.
Not one to simply sit behind the teachers desk, Ms. Shepard says she loves being on the same level as her students. "I am really hands on with my kids, I like to be right there involved," said Amber Shepard. "When we don't understand something she will help us and keep helping us to make sure we understand it," said Ashley Dempster.
"Ms. Shepard works on building that relationship with the kids and because she has the rapport with them she knows exactly what they need for each one of them to succeed," said Principal Susan Ross. Principal Ross says Ms. Shepard plays an important role outside the classroom as well. "She is a grade level leader and she does great with that as well."
"Tyndall is such a great school to teach at. I am just so blessed to be here with the parents and the students. We are all just a big family, it's just a great place. It makes you want to be a better teacher," said Ms. Shepard.
Congratulations to Ms. Shepard, this week's Golden Apple award winning teacher. "I am very humbled, I am very blessed."

It appears to be the end for Matt Barnes and Basketball Wives.
Matt Barnes, a former Orlando Magic forward and currently with the Los Angeles Lakers, and his VH1 Basketball Wives reality television star girlfriend Gloria Govan split, the Los Angeles Times blog is reporting.
The pair called off their August 2010 wedding in lieu of a domestic dispute in which Matt Barnes was arrested after a call was placed to the police. Govan addressed the domestic issue on an earlier episode of Basketball Wives earlier this year.
"We were arguing, I was leaving to New York and he didn't want me to go..I was going to fashion week," Govan said. "I think it was kind of all of our bickering throughout the summer, us canceling the wedding, us not knowing what the [expletive] we're doing and all this other stuff, obviously the kids and you know, not knowing where to go. Everything kind of was like a volcano and then just burst."
Govan said she had no intentions to press charges, but the police decided to move forward with an arrest anyway before charges were eventually dropped.
I was like 'well, see ya, that sucks to be you," Gloria Govan said jokingly about her future husband's arrest.
And there you have it.
You'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who finds the behavior of the women on this show classy or respectful (although, the editing of VH1 certainly can't help). But it's truly unfortunate to watch any relationship end, especially when children are involved.

In honor of the 69th birthday of Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Eric Clapton, the Rock Hall's Library and Archives is pleased to feature Clapton's beautiful new limited edition book Six-String Stories: The Crossroads Guitars in its main reading room.
"One by one these guitars were the chapters of my life," says Clapton about the book. Personally signed by Clapton himself, the 376-page volume documents his entire career through the tools of his trade: his guitars. Six-String Stories is told through Clapton's own words, with background information for each instrument and archival photography spanning five decades.
"As an avid rock or blues fan I would look at all the pictures in this book," says Clapton. Nearly 300 pieces from Clapton's collection, sold across three Crossroads auctions, are brought together here for the very first time. Six-String Stories presents a "family tree," making connections between Clapton's instruments and amps, and placing them in the chronology of his career.
"These guitars have been really good tools," says Clapton. "They're not just museum pieces. They all have a soul, and they all come alive." Every piece has been photographed, showing the beauty of the design ...
As glam rock hit its platformed stride in early 1972, Mott The Hoople was fading fast.
Born in mid-1969 as the brainchild of Island Records' mad genius Guy Stevens, the band was now deep in debt after four albums. Despite local notoriety helped by a riot-causing performance at London's Albert Hall (resulting in a "permanent" ban on rock and roll at the venerable venue), they had stiffed stateside and had just been dropped by their American label.
As Mott half-heartedly entered the studio that February to record demos for their next venture, a package awaited; in it, a tape and a note reading: "A song for you to hear. Hope you'll ring me and tell me what you think. David Bowie." The tape featured a demo of "Suffragette City," the song that would soon climax Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust" breakthrough. After Mott turned down the tune, they set out on a miserable tour of Switzerland and officially broke up on March 26, 1972 (a series of events that would be later chronicled on "The Ballad of Mott the Hoople (26th March 1972, Zürich)" off of 1973's Mott).
Back in London, bassist Pete "Overend" Watts called Bowie ...
Born Reginald Dwight in Middlesex, England, the future Elton John discovered his destiny early, tinkering with the piano as a tot of three. Teenager Reg won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music and studied there five years before signing on with Long John Baldry's band Bluesology in the mid 60s. Taking his name from Baldry and bandmate Elton Dean, Elton John left Baldry and teamed up with the man who would become his longtime writing partner, lyricist Bernie Taupin.
The sweetly sentimental "Your Song," John's 1970 breakthrough hit, was far from his first single. The 1968 dud "I've Been Loving You" was an ill-conceived attempt to capitalize on the popularity of big ballad singers like Engelbert Humperdinck and Tom Jones; 1969's "Lady Samantha" didn't score either, but found John on the verge of discovering his artistic voice, and was covered by Three Dog Night. Since "Your Song," it's been full speed ahead, of course.

Young Guru's impressive resume highlights more than a decade of experience in sound engineering and production, as well as his role as A&R for Roc-A-Fella Records and Def Jam Recordings. However, he's most lauded for his work behind the boards, shaping some of hip-hop's brightest talents: mixing 10 of Jay-Z's 11 albums, and DJing on the Watch the Throne tour, as well as Jay-Z's legendary Carnegie Hall and Barclays Center shows. On several recordings, Jay-Z himself offers verbal acknowledgements of Guru's importance.
As one of audio's most important minds and essential voices, Guru has elevated the discourse of audio engineering philosophy, science and technology. On March 19, 2014, Young Guru sat down with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame education director Jason Hanley for an exclusive interview, sharing stories from his years in the music industry. "The best music, in my opinion, is made by small groups of people in these small areas," says Guru. "If you go to Detroit and look at the Motown house, it's little – it's super little – but you think about the immense amount of music that came out of that house; or if you go ...
Although it originated in Ireland, the tune and melody of "Londonderry Air" is known worldwide, its flowing cadence inextricably linked to Irish heritage. When English lawyer and songwriter Frederic Weatherly was introduced to the tune in 1913, he recast lyrics he'd previously penned to match the "Londonderry" melody, giving rise to "Danny Boy,"arguably the most celebrated version of the song.
For more than a century, the stirring folk ballad has been adapted by a diverse cast of performers, including various Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees. Here, we look at versions of "Danny Boy" by Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Jackie Wilson, Roy Orbison, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Eric Clapton.
Sam Cooke
Cooke cut a beautifully soul-infused version of "Danny Boy" for his 1958 self-titled debut album, adding a charismatic lilt to the arrangement.
Johnny Cash
Cash recorded a hauntingly solemn version of "Danny Boy" for his 1965 Columbia Records release Orange Blossom Special, an album that included various folk and country standards as interpreted by the incomparable Man in Black.
Jackie Wilson
Wilson, who could effortlessly transition from rock to blues to soul, transformed "Danny Boy" – reportedly one of his mother's favorite songs – in ...
James Taylor's 1970 hit single, and the album that spawned it, Sweet Baby James, helped launch the singer/songwriter boom of the early 70s. "Fire And Rain" reflected the movement's best qualities: limpid acoustic guitars, soulful double bass and Carole King's rippling piano are the backdrop for a sorrowful lament for a "lost" friend. More folk than rock, the song nevertheless boasts a deceptively tough edge, thanks to Russ Kunkel's popping drums and Taylor's in-your-face misery. The singer/songwriter era was often criticized as a self-indulgent, whiny time, but the best efforts, such as "Fire And Rain," could be as compelling as the blues. Though just 22 when he achieved fame, Taylor already had many reasons to sing the blues.
Watch James Taylor perform "Love the One You're With" with David Crosby, Graham Nash and Stephen Stills live at the 25th Anniversary Concerts!
The offspring of an affluent family with roots in both Boston and North Carolina, he'd been in and out of mental institutions and struggled with hard drugs. His first serious foray into music came with friend Danny Kortchmar in the group Flying Machine, mentioned in "Fire And Rain." His self-titled ...
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum presents its latest featured exhibit, Common Ground: The Music Festival Experience, which will open on Friday, April 25, 2014. The exhibition will be an immersive and engaging look at the music festival as more than just an outdoor concert, but as a community experience.
Whether it's forging human bonds, building a sense of community, providing broad exposure for musical artists – both old and new – or as one of the most important economic engines of the music industry, the story of the music festival is inextricably linked with music's powerful cultural impact around the globe.
