Strawberry and Chocolate Milk
AO elaboration and other teaching resources
AO elaboration and other teaching resources
This activity has a logic and reasoning focus.
rotate patterns through quarter and half turns
count possibilities
This problem is one of a series of 8 that builds up to some quite complicated maths based around the theme of no-three-in-a-line. That theme is not obvious here, though clearly it isn't possible to put three bottles in a line in a 2 by 2 milk crate. However, the theme will develop as we move through the Levels. The other lessons are Strawberry Milk, Level 1; Three-In-A-Line, Level 2; No Three-In-A-Line, Level 3; More No-Three-In-A-Line, Level 4; No-Three-In-A-Line Again, Level 5; No-More-In-A-Line Level 6; and No-Three-In-A-Line Game, Level 6.
We suggest that you do Strawberry Milk before you do the present lesson as this lesson is meant to recall and reinforce the ideas that the children met in that lesson. These two main ideas were counting all possible arrangements and noticing that some of these arrangements are 'alike? and so might be considered to be the same.
The first part of this problem is about students trying to go through the following steps:
- find some answers to a problem;
- think about whether there are any more answers or not;
- try to explain why there are no more answers.
We don't necessarily expect children to find all of the answers by themselves. What we do expect though is that they will try to find more answers than they have got and in the end have some systematic idea as to why there are no more answers. This is because in the end these are three important skills that go throughout all mathematics (and maybe life itself); first being able to find some possibilities, then getting all possibilities and then justifying that there are no more. We work through this sequence in the Solution.
The second idea that this problem deals with is symmetry. In this case this involves noticing that turning some arrangements of the strawberry milk bottles through quarter turns, will get you to another arrangement. When we find two arrangements like this we say that they are 'alike?. The aim then is to find such arrangements and put them into groups. In the end we want to see how many such groups there are. This is because then we know how many essentially different arrangements there are. This is just the number of groups that are not 'alike?.
Although we have placed this problem in the Mathematical Processes? Strand you can see that it has elements of both Statistics and Geometry. On the Statistics side, we are trying to count all possibilities. This is a precursor to determining probabilities, which is an important part of Statistics. On the Geometry side, we shall need to talk about (rotational) symmetry in order to decide which arrangements of the bottles lead to different arrangements.
There is a web site on the no-three-in-line problem. Its url is www.uni-bielefeld.de/~achim/no3in/readme.html. This is still an open problem in mathematics and has an interesting number of sub problems relating to symmetry.
The Problem
Mary the milk lady had a square milk crate that would hold four bottles. In how many ways can she fill it with strawberry and chocolate milk bottles?
- Talk about delivering milk. Ask What containers does milk come in?
How is it delivered? What do the milk bottles travel in?
How big are milk crates?
How heavy are they?
- Talk about Mary delivering milk.
Why might she have a small crate?
What shape is the crate? What do we know about that shape?
How many bottles can she get into her crate?
- Tell the class Mary's problem.
How can you solve the problem?
What might you need to help you?
- After some discussion, let the class go into their groups or work alone.
- Help the children that need it.
- You will probably need to call them all together at some stage to see how many arrangements they have come up with. Put children's names to the different arrangements. Let them put their pictures of the bottle arrangements on the wall so that the class can refer to them. These can be added to if another one is discovered.
- Ask
How do you know if there are any more?
Can two arrangements actually be the same?
- Talk about symmetry and rotating the square so that one arrangement goes to another. But let them decide when two things are 'alike? or the 'same?.
- Any children who are able to justify their answer could try the Extension.
- Let a few groups/children report back to the whole class. Try to choose groups that have used different approaches to the problem.
Suppose that Mary had a 3 by 3 crate. In how many ways could she fill the crate with two bottles of strawberry milk and seven bottles of chocolate milk?
We imagine that, no matter how the children try to do this, they will first of all do it quite unsystematically. This is what you would expect at step (i) of the process of finding all answers. So they will probably come up with several ways of putting the bottles into the crate but not be sure that two of them could be considered to be the same and not be able to see why there are no more.
Let's talk about what crate arrangemnets are 'alike? for a moment (see Strawberry Milk, Level 1). We could think of the two filled crates below as being alike because it is possible to rotate one around through a quarter turn, until it looks exactly the same as the other.
This should provoke a discussion. Are there other ways of filling the crate that look the same as the one above? You might list these in a column one under the other. There are four possible arrangements that could be in this column.
So, if we decide that these four are all the same then there are only 6 ways of filling Mary's crate. These are shown below.
Perhaps the best way to see that there are no more is to be systematic (this will complete steps (ii) and (iii)). So, in the first case suppose that there are no chocolate bottles. This gives only one case.
Then suppose that there is one chocolate bottle. There is only one case here too because the four possible contenders are alike. They can be rotated into each other.
With two chocolate bottles, there are two possibilities: one where the chocolate bottles are next to each other and the other where they are not. (This is essentially the situation of Strawberry Milk, Level 1). Again, other arrangements look possible but each one is just a rotation of the situation in the picture above.
With three chocolate bottles there is only one place for the strawberry bottle. With four chocolate bottles there is again only one possibility.
Being systematic we get the eight possibilities below.
The system here is achieved by first putting a strawberry bottle in one corner and seeing where the other one can go without repeating a situation that has occurred before.
When that case has been exhausted, put one strawberry bottle in the middle square along an edge and then move the other one around.
Be symmetry, the only position left for the first strawberry bottle is the centre position. However, there is then no square to put the other bottle in that hasn't been used before. Hence there are only eight possibilities here.

What bugs me on the web
2013 is nearly upon us, and the web has come a very long way in the ~15 years I've been a netizen. And yet, even though we've made so many advances, it sometimes feels like we've been stagnant, or worse, regressed in some cases.
Each and every web developer out there should have a long, hard think about how the web has (d)evolved in their lifetime and which way we want to head next. There's an awful lot happening at the moment: web 2.0, HTML 5, Flash's death-throes, super-mega-ultra tracking cookies, EU cookie regulation nonsense, microdata, cloud fun, ... I could go on all day. Needless to say: it's a mixed bunch.
In any event, here's a brief list of 3 things that bug me on the web.
Links are broken
Usability has long been the web's sore thumb, and in spite of any number of government-sponsored usability certification programmes over the year, people still don't seem to give a rat's arse. Websites are still riddled with nasty drop down menus that only work with a mouse. Sometimes they're extra nasty by virtue of being ajaxified. At least Flash menus are finally going the way of the dinosaur.
Pro tip: every single bloody link on your web site should have a working HREF, so people can use it without relying on click handlers, mice, javascript and so people can open the bloody thing in a new tab without going through hell and back.
Bonus points: make your links point to human-readable URLs.
Languages, you're doing it wrong
The web is no longer an English-only or US-only playing field, and companies all over are starting to cotton on to this fact. What they have yet to realise, however, is that people don't necessarily speak the language you think they do. If you rely on geolocation data to serve up translated content: stop. You're doing it wrong. The user determines the language. Believe it or not, people do know which language(s) they speak.
Geolocation, for starters, isn't an exact science. Depending on the kind of device this can indeed be very accurate. Or very much not. Proxies, VPNs, Onion Routers etc can obviously mislead your tracking. Geolocation tells you nothing. It doesn't tell you why that person is there (maybe they're on holiday?). It also doesn't tell you what language is spoken there. This might be a shock to some people, but some countries have more than one official language. Hell, some villages do. Maybe you can find this data somewhere, and correlate it with the location, but you'd be wrong to. Language is a very sensitive issue in some places. Get it right, or pick a sensible default and make clear that it was a guess. Don't be afraid to ask for user input.
Pro tip: My favourite HTTP header: Accept-Language. Every sensible browser sends this header with every request. In most cases, the default is the browser's or OS's language. Which is nearly always the user's first language, and when it's not, at least you know the user understands it well enough to be able to use a browser..
Bonus points: Seriously, use Accept-Language. If you don't, you're a dick.
Clutter is back
Remember how, back in 1999, we all thought Google looked awesome because it was so clean & crisp and didn't get in your face and everyone copied the trend? Well, that seems to have come to an end.
Here's Yahoo in 1997. (I love how it has an ad for 256mb of memory.)
Here's Yahoo now.
The 1997 version was annoying to use (remember screen resolutions in the 90s? No? You're too young to read this, go away) because it was so cluttered.
The 2012 version is worse and makes me want to gouge my eyes out.
Even Google is getting all in your face these days, with search-as-you-type and whatnot. Bah. DuckDuckGo seems to be the exception (at least as far as search engines go). It offers power without wagging it in your face.
Pro tip: don't put a bazillion things on your pages. Duh.

Seasonal guides
18 October 2010 09:30
Equine behaviour consultant Dr Debbie Marsden, author of How Horses Learn (JA Allen £19.99) would agree that the daily discipline of handling and socialisation is as important as the exercise itself.
"As far as managing your horse's behaviour goes, I cannot stress how important it is to allow free association with other equines," she says. "This doesn't just mean touching through a stable partition, as that can actually be more frustrating and creates its own problems.
"The reason that exercise and free association with lots of others works best at keeping horses sane and manageable is because of the social interaction involved and is actually nothing to do with physical work or getting them too tired to be naughty.
"When it comes to winter manners, a treadmill is no use unless you just want to get your naughty horse even fitter! A horse walker is marginally more beneficial as at least they get driven from behind by others in a herd-like fashion, but then, they also drive one horse ahead of them, which reduces the effect.
"Essentially, not being moved around by other horses or, ideally, other people such as when being lunged or ridden, makes most horses more socially confident and those with naturally high social dominance tendencies become so confident they act as though they are the boss of everything and everyone, even after one day off!
"They will try their luck with even previously respected handlers, which leads to all kinds of social dominance problems that are interpreted by the owner as naughtiness.
"This is why a lot of handling and ridden problems appear after a period of box rest and many horses appear a bit fresh after extra hours in the stable.
"So the bad news is, if you don't want to deal with a cheeky monster this winter, you have to ride or lunge every day, more as a daily reminder of manners than anything else. When this is impossible, the horse should have as long as practically possible in free association. In other words, turned out in a school or enclosed hard standing, or other suitable environment, with as many other horses as he's usually in a paddock with," explains Debbie.
"Do, however, be careful with the use of snack balls. Studies have shown that these can be more frustrating than helpful. In my opinion, they're an adaptation of something developed for pigs and not suitable for horses, constituting a safety hazard in the box and resulting in hygiene issue from mice, etc. Food also tends to get stuck and go stale, resulting in wastage and contamination.
"I absolutely agree with increasing the fibre ration (see The role of nutrition, page 28). Most horses can manage on ad-lib hay if it's of good quality with only a small amount of hard feed for essential minerals or extra protein if the forage is poor, and sprinkling hard feed in among this in small-holed haynets is a much more natural, hygienic, effective and horse friendly way to keep a horse occupied in his box.
"Stereotypies are not caused by boredom but by arousal – and the most common cause of this is frustration in the stabled horse by social restriction and not enough time spent eating enough fibre," says Debbie.

GENERIC NAME: bumetanide
DISCONTINUED BRAND: Bumex (discontinued brand)
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Bumetanide is a potent diuretic (water pill) that causes a profound increase in urine output (diuresis) by preventing the kidney from retaining fluid. Specifically, it blocks the reabsorption of sodium and fluid from the kidney's tubules. It is in a class of diuretics called "loop" diuretics which also includes furosemide (Lasix) and torsemide (Demadex). One mg of bumetanide is approximately equivalent to 10-20 mg of torsemide and 40 mg of furosemide. The potent diuretic effect of bumetanide can cause the loss of large amounts of body water leading to dehydration as well as the loss of electrolytes (for example, sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium). Therefore, careful medical supervision is necessary during treatment. Bumetanide was approved for use by the FDA in 1983.

Install Cheetah after you have installed Webware, following the instructions in chapter 3.
The standard Cheetah test suite ('cheetah test') does not test Webware features. We plan to build a test suite that can run as a Webware servlet, containing Webware-specific tests, but that has not been built yet. In the meantime, you can make a simple template containing something like "This is a very small template.", compile it, put the *.py template module in a servlet directory, and see if Webware serves it up OK.
You must not have a Webware context called "Cheetah". If you do, Webware will mistake that directory for the Cheetah module directory, and all template-servlets will bomb out with a "ImportError: no module named Template". (This applies only to the standard Webware; WebwareExperimental does not have contexts.)
If Webware complains that it cannot find your servlet, make sure '.tmpl' is listed in 'ExtensionsToIgnore' in your 'Application.config' file.

Compared to 2010, about 10 percent fewer people have traded in out-of-area driver's licenses in Clark County this year, according to a report released Thursday. Newcomer growth is ordinarily seen as a bellwether of the county's economic expansion because it indicates new consumers who are likely to buy houses, shop locally and eat at area restaurants.
From January through November, 12,393 people exchanged out-of-county drivers' licenses for one issued in Clark County, down from 13,905 people in the same 11-month period last year. In November, 789 out-of-county drivers were issued local drivers' licenses, down 26 percent from the same month last year, according to the Washington state Department of Licensing.
Statewide, newcomer growth has also declined for the year. Washington exchanged 41,403 out-of-area licenses so far this year, down 38 percent from 66,801 licenses swapped in the same 11-month period in 2010.

This article (a) defines NES and its symptoms and (b) explores the effects of the Entitlement Syndrome on your career.
A. Narcissism Entitlement Syndrome (NES) Definition
NES, in its shortest form, can be defined as an attorney being inwardly focused and oblivious to the people and organizations around him/her that he/she is supposed to serve. I link the concepts of narcissism and entitlement in this syndrome because the sense of entitlement most often has narcissistic undertones. Attorneys with NES see themselves as special, believe they should have whatever they want regardless of the feelings of others, and continually inflate themselves while putting others down. You might be wondering what a narcissistic personality disorder is or what some of the narcissistic personality disorder symptoms are. There are five major characteristics that attorneys with NES often have.
First, because they have a narcissist personality, they are generally preoccupied with fantasies of limitless brilliance, power, and success. While this may be something that many attorneys have, the attorney with NES will generally be quite consumed with these fantasies. Advancement and achievement are extremely important to them, and they envision the environment around them as one where they should be the center of others' attention due to their achievements.
Second, attorneys with NES generally have an exaggerated sense of self-importance that is not commensurate with their actual level of achievement. They expect to be recognized as superior to others without a corresponding level of achievement. An attorney with NES will also generally exaggerate his/her achievements to others. Indeed, attorneys with NES like to speak about their achievements (and do) quite frequently. As a product of these fantasies, the attorney will often show a very arrogant attitude. The attorney with NES believes he/she is special and should only associate and work for other high-status people and institutions.
Third, attorneys with NES generally lack empathy and are unwilling (or unable) to identify with the needs or feelings of others (which is also considered a sense of entitlement). Because of these entitlement issues, interpersonally, they are often quite exploitative and take advantage of others in order to achieve their own ends. In this respect, the attorney with NES often views those around him/her as objects to be manipulated to be in service of his/her ultimate fantasies of power, for example.
Fourth, another one of the narcissistic symptoms is that these attorneys are most often very envious of those around them with advantages they do not have and believe that others are also envious of them.
Fifth, attorneys with NES require excessive admiration. They need constant approval from those around them. The NES attorney believes that he/she should be admired by others.
Though there are many theories about what causes narcissism and the psychological underpinnings of this could certainly be explored in great detail, the narcissism is usually something that the attorney has developed as a façade and coping mechanism to deal with underlying feelings of defectiveness and isolation. When such attorneys and their work are criticized, they often react with great internal rage because they believe their self-image has been deflated. Their response is often to isolate themselves, and they may do so by leaving the practice of law, switching firms, or simply having rage for those who have criticized them.
There is a difference between health and unhealthy narcissism inside a law firm. It is, of course, healthy to have a basic sense of your rights. You have a right to not be treated unfairly, and you also have a right to be proud of your achievements and to tell others about them. Narcissism becomes unhealthy, however, if you become obsessed with having people think you are special, and not just having a sense of your own rights, but not really caring about the rights of others.
In an essay, "Working with Problems of Narcissism in Entrepreneurial Organizations," Richard Ruth of the University of Virginia writes:
"Contemporary practitioners, both clinical and organizational, are faced with the pervasive presence of narcissistic disorders in those who consult us. It is a disquieting encounter, because-even as we recognize that our work to understand and assist persons and organizations with narcissistic pathology has increased the reach and efficacy of our interventions, and the lessons of this work in turn have transformatively affected psychoanalytic theories-there are particular qualities to work with narcissism that are painful to work with analytically, perhaps in significant part because they militate against a defensive introduction of non-analytic methods into analytic work. It is in the nature of narcissistically organized persons, and perhaps also, I will argue, narcissistic organizations, to deny the reality of the other (i.e., the analyst), to wrench the analyst into playing a hated but necessary part in the patient's internal drama, to try to disable or destroy the analyst in the service of a soothing return to a narcissistic self-sufficiency, and to project into the analyst, with resentful hatred, a whole internal world of persecutory and toxic part-objects, as the first step toward eventual understanding, health, and wholeness."While this quote may seem overly complex, it does elucidate a final characteristic of NES that I believe merits consideration: The attorney with NES will not confront his weaknesses due to the fact that to do so would interfere with his sense of self. Instead, institutions and persons that call into question the sense of self of the attorney with NES will be considered toxic. As a final point, this explains why attorneys with NES may move firms frequently or leave the practice of law.
B. The Effects of NES on an Attorney's Career
While I realize the picture painted above of NES may appear extreme, it is important to note that NES is something that is quite common among the highest-performing attorneys. Again, I would estimate that more than 10% of first-year associates in major law firms have NES and will have difficult careers for that reason.
Regarding attorneys with NES, it is generally the associates who have come from the very best American law schools and have had a historical pattern of academic achievement that is nothing short of extraordinary. As I am sure you can understand from the above discussion, NES is something that can actually create the sort of superachiever who shows up to work at a major law firm. In a scholastic environment-where the attorney has the luxury of choosing most of his/her courses, can work hard and get immediate feedback via grades and in conditions where the intelligence of the attorney with NES is such that he/she can perform at such a high academic level-he/she is likely to thrive. Moreover, a goal of attending law school and becoming a powerful lawyer fits in perfectly with the fantasies of the attorney with NES.
It is very easy for me to detect NES when speaking with young attorneys. An attorney with NES generally believes that he/she should be given the type of work that he/she wants. These attorneys also tend to believe that they are extremely intelligent and valuable to their employers. In addition, these sorts of attorneys tend to be very calculating and analyze most situations vis-a-vis whether or not they are getting the upper hand. If they are criticized by their employers, they may simply leave.
As a recruiter, I can tell you that I see this happening all the time. Because our firm solicits telephone calls and interest from the highest-caliber attorneys on a daily basis, the NES attorney is one of the sorts of attorneys we often speak with most frequently. The following similarities generally define the attorneys with NES I speak with:
- They generally have not worked at a "real job" before starting as a first-year associate inside a law firm;
- They generally did exceptionally well in college and attended a top-10 law school (NES, in fact, appears to be more likely the better the law school the person attended);
- They generally come from a sheltered upper-middle-class background, or their parents were academics; and,
- They generally believe they are smarter than the people they are working with.
The issue with NES inside a law firm is that the attorney with it is in service of themselves. For the most part, being an associate in a law firm is something that is not going to quickly lead to massive glory, riches, or fame. Instead, you are being hired to work hard and make the firm money. In your first 10-15 years, there will be little opportunity for the sort of continual positive feedback and the sorts of reassurances the NES attorney has.
In addition, this personality type is not always well suited to the practice of law because attorneys, by nature, are supposed to be focused on the needs of their clients. As an associate, you need to be focused on the needs of the partners you are working for as well as the clients whose work you are doing.
The irony of all this, of course, is that the legal environment is perfectly suited to bringing in young attorneys with NES due to the isolationist factors that are present prior to their entering law firms. These attorneys are never happy inside law firms, the partners they are working for are often astounded by their behavior, and the associates they initially work with often do not know whether to fear NES attorneys or simply resent them.
What usually happens to the NES attorney is he/she does not hold up well to the initial criticism all new attorneys get regarding their work products. They do not take orders well, nor do they understand why other associates are considered to be their peers. Such associates most often leave the law very quickly with fantasies about achievement in a work environment that is not of the same caliber of the one they got into initially out of law school. Or they may switch between firms for a few years. Some start their own law firms. A few stick with it and "get better."
C. Conclusions
The seriousness of this topic is far greater than I am even letting on. While this topic has gone unexplored in the legal profession, it is very real and something that affects countless attorneys, especially the ones who appear strongest on paper coming out of law school.
I do not pretend to know the answers. Certainly, the inability to find a balance between one's self and others is a condition that is serious. Recognizing the presence of a problem like this is probably the first step. The second step, then, would be correcting the problem by getting help. The entire problem with the condition, though, is that those who need help for it are also very likely to never admit they have this condition.
If you have completed reading this article, you most likely do not have NES because if you did, you would not confront it by reading this article. You would have stopped several paragraphs ago. What you should understand, though, is that the attorneys you work with who have NES are likely on a dangerous collision course with failure. If the NES attorney does not fail within your organization, the chances are good he/she can negatively affect you if you work with him/her. Do your best to avoid NES attorneys.

Be forewarned this story will affect you. It is a telling of the life, love and loss of a beloved family member. This is easily one of the hardest things I've ever written but I really wanted to share this with you all. I hope it helps you in some way.
Yolanda Tripp (2003 – 2010)
Her story starts in Greece. She and her siblings were born into the care of someone so vile they treated small pups like rubbish. Literally. On a fall day in 2003 a Greek goddess happened to be enjoying a stroll on her island when she heard some whimpering from a garbage compactor. The Goddess rescued four puppies and cared for them until homes could be found. Two of those dogs (Yolanda and Dmax) were able to obtain some European pet passports and booked international travel under the protection of the evil eye to their new home here in Philadelphia. (The goddess still keeps an eye out for helpless dogs in need of love and always manages to get them to wherever that love awaits.)

Back by popular demand, contemporary Brazilian dance superstars Grupo Corpo return with an evening of Northrop premieres. Not seen in Minnesota for nearly 10 years, Grupo Corpo and choreographer Rodrigo Pederneiras have reinvented classical ballet as an exuberant and rhythmic dance form, infused with Brazilian dance rhythms. The group's distinctive artistic achievements, identity, and popularity have been the fruits of a long, arduous journey. Sem Mim, meaning "without me," is an ebbing and flowing ballet, performed in nude colored unitards tattooed with inscriptions from the Middle Ages. A soothing, rocking original score, inspired by a medieval Galician-Portuguese songbook, tells of women who mourn the absence and celebrate the return of lovers from sea. Ímã, or "magnet," is a kinetic, exuberant exploration of attraction and repulsion amidst an ever-changing array of radiant colored light, set to the driving, multi-instrumental sounds of Brazilian trio +2.

Hurricane season is upon us again, and anyone who travelled Florida's Route A1A between Cape Canaveral and Melbourne at the end of 2004 may remember the horrific sight of a church steeple embedded in the roof of a building. It had been toppled by one of several hurricanes which had battered the state that year. On the tenth anniversary of that devastating season, Examiner.com spoke with the churches current occupants about its recovery. Their story begins in another place, at another time.
In 1998 Club Zion Community Church was started in a storefront. The hope was that it would be a church where young adults could go in Cocoa Beach, Fla. The first Sunday it opened its doors, 30 middle aged couples with children showed up. Undeterred by the fact that his target audience wasn't present, Pastor Keith Capizzi still helped the church grow. Several years later the storefronts they operated from could no longer contain the overflowing crowds.
At that point the churches leaders went in search of a new property. At first they tried building their own facility in early 2004. But, after selecting a location, putting money down, and drawing up plans, the developer went under. Another building they considered was refused them by the city. All the while they were seeking a new location, they were holding their summer youth surf camps in a Baptist church off of Florida Route A1A.
The church had been there since 1964. The building was old and the congregation was growing older along with it. In addition, their numbers had dwindled to where the facility had become a financial burden to maintain. It became apparent they were either going to lose it, or it would be condemned. They began looking for a buyer.
The pastor of the church approached Pastor Keith at one of the surf camps and suggested they make them an offer. Even though his church didn't have a lot of money, after some discussion, the elders agreed to his suggestion to buy the old Baptist church. Not wishing to insult the present owners, they still offered what they could, and it was accepted.
Amazingly, Club Zion Community Church purchased the building after it was damaged in the hurricane. According to Pastor Keith, "The hurricane was almost the crippling factor for them and they could never catch up after that. The destruction was too extreme. Every classroom, every building, every room was really in bad shape. [The steeple] came through the roof and through the balcony and flooded everything."
Shortly after the purchase it poured rain for a week, and Pastor Keith began to have buyer's remorse. However, through it all he recognized that God had a plan. Eventually the money came in and the restoration was completed.
In a full circle befitting the elegant old church, it's where Pastor Keith was first saved and later ordained. And now, under his care, it's been restored to its former grandeur.

I created an entry in crontab to execute a job at midnight as e.g user A.
In the morning, I find there were no result of the script, checking the /var/cron/log, I find that during that hour (same time) only a script user root was executed.
Questions: a) Can we set multiple jobs in cron to execute the same time. b) If no? Does this mean user root cron has precedence over any other user to execute the cron job?
here is what they look like. root$ crontab -l 05 00 10 * * /opt/sdf/sbin/somescriptA.sh> /dev/null 2>&1 #Test

Pain in the labia area
I'm 28 weeks. In the past day or two, I have started having what feels like pressure/muscular pain in my labia. In some ways, it feels as though my labia are engorged/swollen. But, it's worse when I use muscles near there, like if I walk around, bend, etc. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to make it feel better besides sitting?

Hi, I have been feeling the same thing for over 2 weeks... Turning sides when in bed, getting up, or lowering a bit... I'm 34 weeks now. I went to the OB and he said that it could be my baby's head pressuring my bladder, and it's causing it to get sore... My baby turned head down on the 26th week, and the pressure can cause an UIT, if not controlled... He told me to rest a lot (laying down), drink a lot of water and walk. Being sitted may be a problem...posted 09/01/2008 by silvia reis

Interested in Zuckerburg's billions? Well, here's a chance
Facebook Inc, in its first stock offering since going public last year, said the company and stakeholders are selling $3.85bn worth of shares, Bloomberg reported.
Facebook priced 70mn shares at $55.05 apiece, according to a statement on Friday. About 27mn will be offered by the company, with an additional 41.35mn by chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg, who will use most of the cash to pay taxes incurred from exercising options.
The sale coincides with Facebook's inclusion in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, an event that triggers demand from index funds and other institutions that need to purchase the stock.
Facebook said it will use the proceeds for working capital and other corporate purposes. Marc Andreessen, a Facebook board member, is also selling 1.65mn shares.
Facebook closed unchanged at $55.05 in New York on Friday. The stock has more than doubled this year, rebounding from its troubled debut in May 2012 that wiped away half the company's market value in its first three months on the market.
S&P had announced that as of the close of trading on December 20, it plans to include Facebook's Class A common stock in the S&P 500 Index.
Zuckerberg is separately donating 18mn shares on December 31, according to a filing on December 19. Those shares, currently valued at $992mn, are being given to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, according to a person with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the information is private.
Vanessa Chan, a spokeswoman for Facebook, declined to comment. Sue McAllister, a spokeswoman for the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, didn't respond to a request for comment.
The charity donation plus his share sale accounts for more than 10% of Zuckerberg's Facebook holdings. Along with a stock sale for tax purposes and a charity contribution last year, the CEO has sold or gifted about 20% of his Facebook stake.
Zuckerberg is the 22nd-richest person in the world, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with a net worth of $26.9bn.

I made this for dinner last night using semi defrosted chicken thighs. Put them in the crockpot for 3 hours on high. The chicken fell off of bone and it was a huge hit with the kids. While I definitely agree with some of the other reviewers that its not the best chicken in the world, who cares if the kids both ate it!

An average-shaped filmmaker strips down to her naked self and exchanges clothes with a model-like woman. On another screen, the same female glams it up with her gay male friend. These scenes are surrounded by self-portraits and images of New York.
No, this isn't a preview for the next season of Girls. Though it's conceivable the show's creator Lena Dunham was inspired by Isa Genzken since the contemporary German artist, whose work was just described, has made an impact on auteurs across several mediums via her ever-changing body of work.
Ironically, despite being influential and internationally-renowned, Genzken is hardly a household name in the United States. But the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) Chicago is rectifying matters by staging the country's first retrospective of the artist's 40-year career.
Covering the fourth floor of MCA Chicago, the exhibition is thematically arranged in chronological order to showcase nearly 100 works of art—starting with Genzken's Minimalist floor sculptures from the 1970s and concrete constructions of the 1980s, moving to her architectural and assemblage forms from the 1990s, with 2013's Actors placed along the perimeter.
The show also includes Genzken's photography, paintings, collages, books, film, and installations which offer glimpses into her specific lifestyle and circle of friends as well as providing broader commentary on man's earthly destruction. From her deadpan self-portrait X-Ray (1991) to her deathly Oil XI (2007) installation, Genzken offers both a sense of humor and horror to the well-punned pieces.
Her attention to titles is most evident in F*ck the Bauhaus which simultaneously reveres and rejects past conventions as does Genzken's career. Constantly reinventing herself by literally building her work up and breaking it down has made her one of the most important artists of her generation.
To fully understand Genzken's influence, James W. Alsdorf Chief Curator Michael Darling leads a tour of the exhibition at noon today for Illinois residents and guests with museum admission. Artist Simon Denny and University of Chicago Chair of Art History Christine Mehring will also discuss Isa Genzken's work at 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 8; tickets are $10. Another MCA Talk with Lisa Lee, Collegiate Assistant Professor at the University of Chicago and essayist for the Isa Genzken: Retrospective catalogue, is fee with museum admission at 3 p.m. on Saturday, May 10.
The exhibition runs through August 3, 2014 at MCA Chicago on 220 E. Chicago Avenue. For more information, visit www.mcachicago.org.

Kitchen design Today, homeowners
are deciding to create an "exterior kitchen" for their homes. Built-in grills,
refrigerators and beverage tappers are growing in popularity. The 30-inch high,
specially-built outdoor refrigerators are small units that are completely stainless
steel. They fit under the 30- to 36-inch countertops and are unplugged in the
winter. Beverage tappers are used to cool beer, wine and even iced tea.
don't want to stand alone over a stove inside, when they can cook with friends
and family together outside on a nice summer day. According to Gorski, an outdoor
kitchen can be created in as small a space as a 10-foot by 10-foot patio. This
allows the homeowner to also place a 48-inch table with four chairs on the patio.
Homeowners considering installing an outdoor kitchen should know that it can cost
$10,000 to $15,000.
Some homeowners want a roof over the patio
such as an arbor pergola. This free-standing roof has four posts or columns and
a roof that is open to the sky. People installing a pergola may have vines climbing
over it.
Fire and water features
"Fire and water are two elements that attract our senses," Gorski says. "Sharing
a warm, toasty fire with friends on a crisp evening or reading a favorite book
while listening to the trickle of water from a serenity pool are elements frequently
wanted in outdoor space." A fireplace or fire pit allows families to use their
outdoor living area much earlier or later in the season. A small pond or bubbler
has a soothing effect and can even attract wildlife. Beautiful songbirds will
simply stop and take a drink.
There are multiple ways to put
in a small pond. Most homeowners want it built right into the patio -- cutting
out the area before placing down the actual patio floor. Some submerged ponds
have an upper basin with water that trickles down to the lower basin.
manufacturers offer stone products that look like urns spilling water. They can
be placed on the patio and bubble over or trickle down onto a gravel basin, which
has a pump assembly underneath. Urns can be as small as 30-inches by 30-inches.
bubbler, providing small visual and sound effects, just trickles over the stone
and runs down. It requires less maintenance than a pond, which needs chemicals
to stay clear. For people on a budget, a bubbler is priced from $150 to $300,
while a small pond purchased and installed could cost $5,000.
plantings Plants are chosen to provide screening from neighboring
areas, add shade to escape from afternoon sun, bring color and fragrance to the
living area and, in general, create a "living room" feel. Evergreens provide privacy
and a continuum of green. Shade trees can help create a canopy to make the homeowner
feel secure and sheltered. Selecting multiple flowering plants and perennials
can contribute to a full season of color and fragrance, and even add winter interest.
of the most effective ways to personalize your outdoor room is to add planters
or urns. In Europe, planters add personal touches of color and fragrance to balconies,
window boxes, terraces and entry ways. A planter placed in a highly visible location
on your patio can be planted with bulbs for the spring, annuals in the summer,
filled with mums in the fall and holly branches in the winter.
lighting An extremely effective way to extend the use of any outdoor
area is by landscape lighting. By providing soft, indirect lighting, the outdoor
space can become more inviting, less intimidating and safer in the evening hours.
Low-voltage systems can be installed at focal points like walks, steps or trees
to bathe an area with soft light.
It seems that in the 21st
Century, the options available for making your patio to make an enjoyable "extra
room" are almost endless.

Well it has been two weeks since the Top Chef D.C. debut, What a season! As we continue to cheer on Top Chef D.C. contestant Chef Tiffany Derry of Dallas' Go Fish Restaurant, we've seen some great food created. But two desserts dishes eliminated in two weeks? Special consultant to the Dallas Food Examiner, Chef Mo Assi of Lawry's-The Prime Rib, voices his opinions on why these two desserts were eliminated and how he would change the recipes to make them contenders.
Both recipes were eliminated for similar reasons: flavor, texture and execution. We are on Top Chef here, so anything that you create should be your best.
Week 1: John Somerville eliminated for Maple Mousse Napoleon with Crisp Macadamia nut
From the beginning, the dessert was wrong, wrong, wrong ... from store-bought dough to grainy whipped cream. When challenged to create a dish to be served at a banquet that represents where you're from, do that - stick to your roots.
Make that dish a winner: Make your own dough, don't overwhip the cream (this turns it grainy) and choose a different vessel ... rather than a stacked napoleon, I would have made individual pastry cups by forming them in muffin tins and blind baking the dough. Next, I would fill the cups with mousse, making the food portable and easy to eat in a banquet setting.
Week 2: Jacqueline Lombard eliminated for Banana Pudding with skim milk and fresh strawberries
Who didn't see this coming? The challenge was to create healthy foods for students, but jacqueline used 2 lbs of sugar. I wanted to like this dessert (Hello! It's banana pudding), but it fell short.
Make that dish a winner: The judges commented on the starchiness and overly sweet taste of the pudding. Avoid this in your own banana pudding dish by selecting bananas that aren't green. Give them time to ripen up a bit and become mushy. Jacquiline's dessert had too much sugar for the health-food challenge. When using sweet-ripe bananas, you eliminate the need for more sugar, making the dish both healthy and delicious.
Stay tuned to Bravo TV see who gets voted off next Wednesday and check back with the Dallas Food Examiner for more tips from Dallas's Chef Mo Assi on how to make the losing dishes winners.
Want to be your own judge on Chef Mo's suggestions? Chef Mo will be serving his version of John's Maple Mousse with Macadamia nut brittle and Caramel-Butter sauce at Lawry's (Addison, Texas) Rotta Wine Dinner July 23, 2010, at 7 pm. $69 plus tax and gratuity.
Reservations required. Call (972) 503-6688 or email email@example.com with "Rotta Wine Dinner" in the subject line.

Let's be honest. Let's be truthful. And let's be direct.
Yesterday many of you received an anonymously mailed packet of materials. The sender cowardly hid behind an obscure PO Box and untraceable name, but we all know who was responsible for this—Carl DeMaio.
It is fine to call into question someone's record – I fought in a war, I can defend my record and look forward to a spirited campaign about our city's future.
But, let's not play adolescent games and be cowardly about it.
Let's be honest. Let's be truthful. And let's be direct.
DeMaio is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
Here are the facts:
1. Taxpayer ratings: DeMaio has raised this issue several times in debates, but continues to ignore the facts. My score was largely based on my support for legislation that protected California based businesses by ending a corporate tax loophole that only benefited out-of-state companies. The legislation would have permanently cut taxes on California small businesses. I will take a low score from any organization to stand with California small businesses. You can see a column on this issue written by a member of this committee: http://tiny.cc/CWIf2b. You can also see an exchange between DeMaio and myself on this topic http://tiny.cc/Q6Jf2b.
But at least I'm consistent. Carl DeMaio says he is against higher taxes. But read this link here to see DeMaio's support for a billion-dollar tax increase: http://tiny.cc/mcJf2b
2. Family values: Family values are very important to me. As a married father of two, I take very seriously my commitment to my wife and children. As a Christian of strong faith, I take seriously my commitment to God. However, I do not believe it is the role of government to legislate religion and impose our moral values. That is the role of the institutions of family and faith. We have looked to government for too much intervention in people's individual freedoms and personal lives. Please know and appreciate that I am consistent in this position—regardless of what community I am speaking to and how it might affect a scorecard. I know from conversations with many of you that Carl Demaio tells you he will never advocate or push social issues related to sexual orientation. However, this doesn't square with the statements and commitments he makes in other communities. Like or dislike my positions, I have always been upfront, honest, and straightforward.
My record is one that I am proud of. Here are a few highlights:
1. I have never voted for a tax increase
2. I led by example taking a 26% pay cut, have no pension, not even a 401k. DeMaio refused to take a 6% pay cut that he voted to impose on others. That isn't leadership.
3. I have consistently stood up to labor — I have one of the lowest labor scorecards
4. I have been endorsed by Governor Pete Wilson, Joel Anderson, Mark Wyland, Martin Garrick, and the California Small Business Administration
5. I have one of the best records in the assembly: Authored Chelsea's Law, passed regulatory relief, protected California jobs, and fought for local infrastructure funding.
6. I fully support the Comprehensive Pension Reform Initiative, support the ban on project labor agreements, and have taken the no tax pledge.
We deserve a Mayor who will be honest and not hide behind anonymous surrogates and PO Boxes. I look forward to Saturday's debate and discussion.
I'll put my record of consistently siding on behalf of taxpayers against every candidate in this race.
But, I will man up and do it myself. Feel free to respond directly to me or call me any time if you have a question.
Our party deserves better. You deserve better.
Semper Fidelis,
– Nathan

Sad Nathan. Really sad.
"However, I do not believe it is the role of government to legislate religion and impose our moral values. That is the role of the institutions of family and faith. "
Your vote on SB 48 suggests otherwise, Sir,
I wouldn't put it past Carl to employ underhanded tactics in order to win.
Thankfully with Nathan Fletcher we get pension reform and solid leadership — instead of consistent lies and lemmings.
Here is another Fletcher Fact from the Sacramento Bee:
Moderate Republican wins
Fletcher, a moderate San Diego Republican, received a budget boost from Perez of $37,000 last summer, which he used to hire press aide Amy Thoma at $7,084 per month. Thoma previously had helped the lawmaker unveil his candidacy for San Diego mayor. She left the Capitol to join a GOP consulting firm this year and now serves as Fletcher's deputy campaign manager.
Months after Thoma's hiring, Fletcher, who often is courted by Democrats on tight budget-related votes, bucked most of his GOP caucus to help pass a controversial plan to raise about $1 billion in corporate taxes, mostly from out-of-state companies, and redirect that money toward tax breaks for California businesses and individuals. The plan later died in the Senate.
First of all, "Fletcher Facts" (if that is your REAL name), not sure what staffing has to do with any of this.
Second of all, he addresses that vote in the post above. That was a good bill that focused on tax breaks for California small businesses.
cross post – The DeMaio camp sends out a packet of information with Fletcher's voting record and legislative scores from legitimate organizations. Fletcher considers this an underhanded attack?
Sounds like Fletcher is upset with his record and trying to downplay his lack of Republican credentials to me.
Vidosic, as someone who is still wrestling with which candidate to support, I disagree with your notion that increasing your public office budget and staff, and then using those staff members on your campaign is not important. As a tax payer I find it repugnant the way dollars are p*ssed away while our country is suffering through economic turmoil. It's always easy to play with other people's money.
Vidosic – If you would have actually read the article you would have found that Fletcher was the ONLY Republican to get his office budget increased by Speaker Perez (which gave him the funds to hire Thoma) during a time when everyone in the state was getting their budgets slashed. Why? Because Fletcher "bucked most of his GOP caucus to help pass a controversial plan to raise about $1 billion in corporate taxes."
Unbeliveable how DeMaio supporters continue to stress that Carl "doesn't accept a pension" or "the perks of City Council" to pretend he's in touch with City voters. He's a multi-millionaire! He has no understanding of City employee budget issues, especially those who make a fraction of Carl's yearly earnings.
Team Fletcher, your comment on condemning DeMaio about not taking a 6% paycut is grossly misleading. Carl was one the first city employees to VOLUNTARILY turn down a pension benefit. That savings dwarfs the 6% negligible salary savings. Since then, three other councilmembers have done the same — this is leading by example.
And unless I'm mistaken, the 26% pay cut you reference was applied for all State Assembly and Senators across the board and was an involuntary reduction you had to accept.. There hasn't been a retirement plan for State legislature since the 90's. So essentially, even the worst Democrats in the legislature could make an identical claim as you of "leading by example".
This brings up an interesting question. One can only assume that on the off chance CPR is defeated either in the ballots or courts, DeMaio will turn down a pension as mayor as he did as a Councilmember. I know for a fact that Ray Ellis and Scott Sherman have also pledged to not accept a pension. If a pension were available with you as the mayor, would you accept it?
D7 voter, he isn't using state funds to pay for his campaign staff. That would be illegal. If you read the article it clearly states that she left the capitol earlier this year and now works for a consulting firm.
Fletcher Facts – again, that was a good bill that would have directed massive tax breaks towards California businesses. It was supported by other known liberal rabble rousers* such as Jon Fleischman of the Flashreport. http://www.calbuzz.com/2011/09/flash-advises-gop-trade-biz-tax-break-for-tax-cuts/
*not a known liberal rabble rouser
Illegal, yes. Less than ethical, also yes. I'm trying to understand why it was that she was on the state payroll at all? It seems to me that her value at all times was for the mayoral campaign. These are the kinds of games that politicians play, claiming stuff is all legal and on the up and up while anyone with half a brain knows we are getting hosed, that really gets my blood boiling. Until politicians start acting like those of us in the real world their approval ratings will continue to tank.
It's clear that Thoma was hired for the mayoral campaign of Fletcher. She was hired right when things were gearing up and the candidates were announcing their intentions.
What's hilarious though is that she hasn't been worth a dime to his campaign from any of that money he got from our esteemed, liberal Assembly Speaker.
"Team Fletcher, your comment on condemning DeMaio about not taking a 6% paycut is grossly misleading."
So is your assumption that Nathan Fletcher supports tax increases. Nathan has never — not once — ever supported a tax increase.
South Sunny Bayer, I'm not sure if you're suffering from heat stroke, but I never even brought up Nathan's record on taxes, nor have I ever in the past. Your comment directed at me is completely irrelevant.
I'll recap one more time: Fletcher's comment about leading by example with personal pay cuts while condemning DeMaio is completely misleading (and ironic given the subject of this post). In 2009 in his first day in office, DeMaio voluntarily refused a pension effectively declining 21 thousand dollars compensation annually, equal to about 28% of his salary. Fletcher in 2011, after two years of service, absorbed a pay cut only when it was imposed on all 120 legislators.
The fact that Team Fletcher felt this point was so important to highlight in bold and claim he was leading by example definitely warrants clarification with direct facts. DeMaio has led the charge by example in making VOLUNTARY compensation concessions. Kevin Faulconer and Lorie Zapf have adopted Carl's no-pension policy and current candidates Ellis and Sherman will also follow Carl's lead if elected and pensions are available.
I ask again, will Fletcher?
Nathan stated months ago that he would take no pension as mayor.
Well it looks like the man said to call him directly if you have a problem. He shouldn't be too hard to find. Maybe Steve, "Surge," Aynd Rand and TWM might want to step out from behind their Facebook photos and sassy blogger handles and give him a ring. Or you could just keep posting your greatest hits here with the rest of the boys from the Island of Misfit Toys.
The difference is that while DeMaio was making his millions, Fletcher was fighting for our freedom by leading troops into battle in Iraq, a decision which earned him significantly less, at least monetarily.
The difference is that DeMaio is a single man and Fletcher has a young family to support.
The difference is that DeMaio doesn't need the money that his next job will pay, while Fletcher does.
I, for one, commend Fletcher for continuing to want to serve and am saddened that it has come to the point that he, or anyone else, has to promise to accept less in salary and in retirement to gain the endorsement of the Republican Party.
Government by intention rather than results, Alger? That's not a Team Freedom principle.
Help me out here. What does your question mean and what does it have to do with my comment?
I don't understand why you don't even have a 401k?
I personally think good pay for lawmakers is preferable to paying them less, making them more vulnerable to bribery from crony capitalists and other special interests.
Alger is right! Take a look at this bio and tell me that anyone could live on the table scraps that these jobs produced.
Truly, while Carl was being given money hand over fist, the Fletcher household was hardly getting by on the meager salary of a soldier and a political operative.
Alger, any word back from the pope on when Nathan's sainthood will be announced?
How many people are starting to think that some consultant told Nathan to always mention that he fought in a war when making a public statement because it plays well with voters?
"Man up", Nathan? Carl DeMaio is in favor of tax increases, Nathan? With your every new act of desperation I grow closer to donating to the DeMaio campaign and I don't even vote in the city of San Diego.
What's unbelievable is you're not being accurate and your latest moves have been anything, but honest, truthful, and direct.
Do you remember a year and a half ago you posted a story on your Facebook page about helping to get rid of the redevelopment cap? And I commented on why we aren't working on plugging the enormous hole in the state's massive deficit. You deleted my comment and called me. I told you this looks more like you are positioning yourself to run for mayor of San Diego by building a multi-millionaire a new, downtown ballpark. Which…you assured me wasn't your motivation and wouldn't happen. You said you were "fundamentally opposed" to the idea of private/public partnerships and just wanted to keep the money local so we could improve San Diego's water pipes and sewage. I don't think a week passed before I saw you on the news with Jerry Sanders in a story about how great it will be now that Assemblyman Fletcher secured the money for a new stadium.
And your spin on leaving the Republican Party…it makes no sense. You got a ton of support and had a ton of influence/power. Any complaints you have with the GOP would be due to your own failures as part of the SD GOP leadership. What were you not able to do as a Republican that you can do now (besides run for mayor as the GOP endorsed candidate)? You got everything you wanted from the Republican Party. Everyone supported you. You were the SD GOP golden boy. Practically Republican royalty. But the Central Committee voted for DeMaio who leads in the polls and has more experience with the city. Many voted for Carl whispering that they can't wait to see you run for State Senator on your way to governor. Boy…sounds like they really see you and your moderate voting record as the enemy. And how do you respond? By throwing a massive tantrum because they dare cross you. Few (if any) Republicans had anything truly bad to say about you. I mean you gave a speech as a Republican assemblyman in favor of getting rid of Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Only to be ostracized and attacked? NO! The UT wrote a story about how you walk on water and the Log Cabin REPUBLICANs endorsed you for mayor!
The fact is you campaigned hard for the endorsement of the Republican Party before you decided you didn't think they should endorse. It was only after you realized you didn't have the votes that Republicans Brian Jones, Joel Anderson, and Duncan Hunter asked the Central Committee to not endorse at all. You even gave the San Diego Republican Party a fat check within weeks of their vote to endorse. The fact is this is all just a stunt. I, and many others, who questioned your sincerity and your motivation over the years and pointed out your self-centered ambition feel pretty vindicated. You talk about how people who disagree with you aren't the enemy, well, people who disagree with you aren't a powerful conspiracy mad at you for siding with Gov. Brown either. You took this race from a spirited campaign talking about issues that San Diego needs to face to a really weird, paranoid, tantrum. Congratulations.
Michael Schwartz's statement above should be it's own post on this site. Mr. Schwartz is clearly speaking from the heart.

New film to show at the Smith in Geneva
Briskly entertaining as well as edifying, the documentary film "Tim's Vermeer" screens at The Smith Opera House on Wednesday, May 21 at 7:30pm.
Tim Jension is a Texas-based graphic artist and inventor who is obsessed with trying to solve one of the greatest mysteries in the art world: How did 17th century Dutch master Johannes Vermeer, renowned for works like "Girl with a Pearl Earring" and "The Music Lesson" manage to paint so photo-realistically more than a century before the invention of photography? Jension's daring premise-that Vermeer painted with the aid of technological ingenuity, and not talent-is put to the test as the filmmakers follow their subject over five years as his quest takes him through Holland, Yorkshire, and to the gates of Buckingham Palace itself. Plumbing the depths of the intersection between technology and art, the film boldly reframes our contemporary discussions of genius, effort, and obsession within both the humanities and the sciences.
"Tim's Vermeer" is another fascinating intellectual detective story offered up by directoral duo Penn Jillette and Raymond Teller. Though the pair are best known for their work in television and are oft dismissed as pessimistic skeptics, their fascination with the limitations of human knowledge and the fragility of our narrative explanations has engendered a rich and thoughtful analysis of a not-so-modern day mystery. Combining the showmanship of Penn and Teller with the offhand charm and rare perseverance of a Renaissance man like Tim assures audiences of more than enough art and intrigue to pique their curiosity and whet their sense of wonder. To see the trailer visit http://thesmith.org/event-calendar/tims-vermeer/.
This film is PG-13 and has a runtime of 80minutes.
Tickets are $6 general admission, $5 students and seniors.
The Smith Opera House is located at 82 Seneca Street, Geneva. Box Office Hours are Monday through Friday, 10am to 5pm. Phone: 315-781-5483 For complete listing of event information visit the smith.org.
