[KOTOR]The Search for Revan
This is my K1 story conversion mod, It is set after Both Kotor 1's story and after TSl's, 10 Years after to be precise.
The Story:
The Jedi purge has ended(the purge is the time where all the jedi are being hunted) And the jedi have rebuilt the order after almost 5 years of finding force sensitives and training them the order is strong.
Bastilla shan was killed in the final battle against malaks leftover army
but before she died she had twins, She sent them away to live with her sister on tatooine so that she was not exiled.
The player will play as one of bastillas children and when the time comes in your life your auntie will tell you everything about your mother and your father
she reveal to you that your father is revan and then she will tell you everything about you father, Life will carry on as usuall until the jedi come to tatooine to search for force sensitives The jedi will take you to the rebuilt jedi enclave on dantooine and you will train there to be a jedi for Two years and it will unvail that revan is returning to known space the jedi advise you not to go looking for revan becuase They do not know if he will know of your existance or if he still walks the path of the light.
You decide against the wish's of the council and go looking for your father
and take your sister with you, You go to the star forge to try and figure out where your father went or what he went to find.
You will find Revan at the korriban academy he will be with the exile
you will fight with him untill you tell them that you are revans son/daughter
he will stop fighting and you have a long meaningfull dialog with revan
untill They tell you about The secret planet they found in the unknown regions of space and that it contains an enclave of dark jedi and sith lords and that you must find people to help you defeat these sith lords.
If you embrace the darkside revan will train you in the way of the darkside
but your sister will grow ever weary of your father and the exile and she will leave and inform the jedi that you have fallen and that revan is trainning you
and then you must go to the enclave and kill the masters and then you will fight with your sister and you can either kill her and consume her force power
or you can let her live but take her force power away from her and then she will leave the game.
Whilst you are at the academy your father manages to convert two aspiring young jedi to your party you travel to worlds searching for T3-M4 becuase he holds the key to defeating this empire that revan and the exile found
Revan put the crystal of Darkness incrypted in T3's chassis and only revan can get it from him once you find t3 he will join your party and you will go to
the planet and kill all the Sith lords So that revan the exile and you will control the galaxy
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH! The end tell me what you think? guys
If you want to join the mod then just ask me or pm me!
all questions will be answered!

Michaela(player second name)/Human/Female
The sister of the player and the daughter of bastilla shan and Revan,
Michaela has always followed the light she has strong opinions against what her father did during the mandalorian wars
She is always idolising her mother and trying to get the player to follow the light.
It sounds...ambitous
if you can pull that off i would definitely play that mod!!!
sounds great!! but maybe add some more info in the mod on how the exile found revan.. or visa versa..
Maybe HK-47 would be a more suitable droid to hold the crystal for revan since revan did custom make him...
Is carth going to be part in this mod as well? and how about dustil? Maybe dustil can join your party? and why not make it for TSL? you have some more options there, not?
those are just some of my idea's/suggestions ;)
all by all, it sounds like a great mod!!!!
It need a... bit of work. More detail and such. A more defined and refined version of what the mod downloaders would get.
Yes i was very tierd when i wrote the story so i will touch up on it late
One question, why would Helena Shan (that would be bastilas mother for those of you who don't know that already) leave her daughter behind on Tatooine.
Her husband was killed there after all.
Manaan, Dantooine or Taris might be a better choice.
Taris could be used if you 'decide' that a city sized area was reperable due to slopy gunmanship on one of the sith ships.
Perhaps you could also use the bek and vulkar bases as 'the Promised Land'?
Might be fune to run into Shaleena, gendar, rukil and igear again.
And i think you missed something.
Didn't Bastila leave the twins with her 'Sister on Tatooine'?
Bastila's mother died on Tatooine. End of story.
Happy now?
It is because of Bastilas Father who dies on Tatooine that i don't understand why Bastilas sister would settle there.
That is all i tried to ask.
Oh,and in the LS path Helena gets 500 credits from Bastila to seek medical aid, which means she did 'not' die there.
The story will be touched upon later
bastila has a sister..... o_0
Canonical, I do not believe she does, but for this story line purpose she does.

Deeplinks Blog posts about File Sharing
While there were rumors today that Comcast and AT&T might be entering into an agreement with the RIAA in the United States, it was in Ireland where the recording industry made its latest "three strikes" subscriber termination deal with the telecom industry -- using the courts and the threat of mass Internet filtering obligations as the inducement.
The Irish Recorded Music Industry (IRMA), the local recording industry organization, and Irish internet service provider Eircom announced a settlement this morning, ending a lawsuit in which IRMA was demanding that the ISP pro-actively discriminate content on their networks.
The lawsuits are ending. It's about time.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the recording industry has halted its mass litigation campaign against music fans for Internet file-sharing, a campaign that has targeted more than 35,000 Americans over more than 5 years (for a complete history of the lawsuits, see our RIAA v. The People white paper).
Ending the lawsuit campaign is long overdue. The campaign has been, by any measure, a failure. The lawsuits have not reduced unauthorized file-sharing and have not gotten a single artist paid.
Finally. The major record labels are coming around to voluntary collective licensing, as we've been urging (and predicting) since 2003. Last week, TechDirt posted a set of leaked slides suggesting that Warner Music Group has opened a discussion with several major U.S. universities about creating a collective licensing solution for on-campus music file sharing. Wired got more details, TechDirt hates it, Ars Technica is cautiously optimistic, and Portfolio urges more transparency.
Last week, the RIAA celebrated the signing of a ridiculous new law in Tennessee that says:
Each public and private institution of higher education in the state that has student residential computer networks shall:
[R]easonably attempt to prevent the infringement of copyrighted works over the institution's computer and network resources, if such institution receives fifty (50) or more legally valid notices of infringement as prescribed by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 within the preceding year.
Joining the ranks of federal district judges in Arizona and Massachusetts, District of Minnesota Chief Judge Michael Davis today concluded [44-page PDF] that simply making a music file available in a shared file does not violate copyright law, and ordered a new trial in Capitol Records v. Jammie Thomas.

New head basketball coach Shawn Finney meets the media at Wednesday's press conference.
July 19, 2000
Press Conference Video Highlights
NEW ORLEANS - Tulane University Director of Athletics Rick Dickson introduced Shawn Finney as the new head men's basketball coach at a press conference Wednesday afternoon.
Finney, 37, becomes the 21st head coach in the 90-season history of Tulane basketball. He signed a five-year contract. No other contract terms were released.
"I am extremely pleased to announce the hiring of Shawn Finney as our head basketball coach," said Dickson. "I believe Shawn possesses all of the traits, characteristics and qualities that we value here at Tulane. He will bring a strong commitment to succeed both in the classroom and on the court with the young men he recruits."
Finney comes to Tulane after serving as an assistant coach for Tubby Smith at the University of Kentucky for three seasons. In that span, he helped the Wildcats to a cumulative 86-23 (.789) record, the 1998 National Championship and a berth in the NCAA Regional Finals. Last season, Kentucky posted a 23-10 record and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
"It is an honor to be named the head men's basketball coach at Tulane University," said Finney. "I appreciate Mr. Dickson and President Cowen for giving me the opportunity to lead this program. It is an exciting time to be associated with Tulane University."
While at Kentucky, Finney assisted with on-floor coaching duties as well as off-campus recruiting. He served as an assistant coach for Smith in each of the past eight seasons at Kentucky, Georgia and Tulsa, and has made seven consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances in that span.
He was a member of the Tulsa staff that guided the Golden Hurricane to consecutive Sweet 16 berths prior to Smith's departure to Georgia. Finney served as a part-time assistant coach for three seasons at Tulsa before being promoted to a full-time assistant during the 1994-95 season.
He held the same position at the University of Georgia in 1996 and 1997. Finney was instrumental in the Bulldogs' 1996 NCAA Tournament appearance, the school's first in five years. Georgia made another NCAA appearance in 1997 and posted the first back-to-back 20 win seasons in school history.
"I've watched Shawn grow and develop over the last 10 years at three outstanding programs to become the premier assistant at the premier program in the country," said Dickson. "I believe he'll be a huge success for Tulane University."
A native of Mullens, W.Va., Finney started his coaching career as an assistant at Garrett (Md.) Community College in 1985-86 and served as an assistant at Pikeville (Ky.) College during the 1986-87 campaign. In that season, he helped the Bears to a 21-10 record.
Over the next three seasons he worked as an assistant coach at Randolph-Macon College in Ashland, Va., before moving to Tulsa in 1990 under J.D. Barnett. After Barnett left Tulsa, Finney was retained as a member of Tubby Smith's first coaching staff and worked with then-Tulsa Athletic Director Rick Dickson.
As a player, Finney played two seasons at Garret Community College before finishing his basketball career as a starting guard in his senior season at Fairmont State. He graduated from Fairmont State in 1985 with a degree in business administration. He earned his master's in sports management from Tulsa in 1992.
Finney inherits a Tulane program that went 20-11 last season, won Conference USA's National Division and advanced to the first round of the NIT. He succeeds Perry Clark, who resigned after 11 seasons to take the head coaching position at the University of Miami.

What they're saying about Shawn Finney
Orlando "Tubby" Smith
University of Kentucky Head Basketball Coach
"Shawn has been with me since day one of my head coaching career. He's been the glue to the success I've experienced at Tulsa, Georgia and Kentucky. I'm excited that he's getting this opportunity to lead his own program at Tulane. He's one of the rising stars who has prepared for this day by coming up through the ranks, paying his dues -- first as a graduate assistant, then as an administrative assistant on to becoming an outstanding recruiter. His youthful presence and his ability to communicate will allow him to recruit and coach the top talent and be successful in Conference USA. No one is more deserving and capable to lead Tulane back to the top of its league.
"Tulane fans can look for an exciting style of play with a well-rounded philosophy. Expect him to play an up-tempo style of basketball highlighted by three-point shooting and pressure defense. Tulane and Rick Dickson have picked the right person to give vision and direction to the Green Wave program."
C.M. Newton
Recently Retired UK Athletics Director
"I'm very excited for Tulane University and Shawn Finney. It's a great fit. For Tulane, the program gets a top-flight young coach who will not only excel on the basketball court but who understands the academic mission of Tulane. For Coach Finney, he gets the opportunity to coach a quality program that can compete at the highest level. I'm just thrilled for both Tulane University, Rick Dickson and Shawn Finney."
Dick Vitale
National Basketball Analyst
"Shawn will bring a lot of excitement and youthful enthusiasm to the Tulane basketball program. I've observed him both on the sidelines and on the recruiting trail and he understands the game and will make a great recruiter for the Green Wave. Working with Tubby Smith -- who I think is one of the top coaches in America today -- has been a tremendous experience for Shawn, an experience that's prepared him to go out on his own and make his mark as a successful head coach."
Larry Ivy
UK Athletics Director
"We're very excited for Shawn. It's a great opportunity for him to go to Tulane University as head coach of a program rich in academic history as well as athletic tradition. He's been a real asset to our program, and like a number of former assistants at Kentucky, we expect Shawn to make the next step and become a highly successful head coach. In making their selection, Tulane is getting a coach who will play exciting basketball and who has a total understanding of the rules and regulations governing college basketball. We wish him nothing but the best."
Perry Clark
University of Miami Head Basketball Coach
"Tulane has had great success in bringing in talented assistants from great programs. I think Shawn fits that mold and will continue that tradition."
Billy Donovan
University of Florida Head Coach
"Tulane has hired an outstanding coach in Shawn Finney. He is a tremendous recruiter and had an opportunity to work with one of the best coaches in the country in Tubby Smith. There is no question that Shawn will do a great job for Tulane."
Billy Packer
National Basketball Analyst
"I've observed Shawn Finney working
in the Kentucky basketball program
for the past three years and watched
him help and assist Tubby Smith in
practice and games. He's learned how
to win championships from one of the
nation's top basketball coaches and
it is that experience with Tubby
that gives him the credentials to be
an outstanding head coach at

David Price is no dummy. He went to Vanderbilt — the Harvard of the Tennessee Valley. He's been in the majors since 2008. He's advised by the best dog in baseball — Astro. So when a fantasy baseball player approached him on Twitter for important advice — "You or Yu?" — Price spat the truth:
Darvish actually strikeouts out fewer than "498" a season. But it's still a lot.
What a tough call, though. That guy's team has Darvish and Price and can only keep one? Harsh! Even if Price turns out to be wrong and he has a better season than Darvish, you're not going to get better fantasy baseball advice in spring training than that for your Yahoo league. Listen to Price. Don't go with him. Go with Yu.

You've heard the stories of lottery winners that quickly go broke, or a massive celebrity bankruptcy where a pro athlete squanders it all.
The sad reality is money can't buy smarts or responsibility, and having lots of dough is no guarantee that you will be a "success" down the road.
That's a lesson investors should take to heart. Some companies currently boast massive cash hoards — notably big tech stocks like Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) — but it's worth asking whether that cash means anything in your analysis of the company as a potential investment.
Cash: What Is It Good For?
Obviously, having cash is better than not having it. There's some truth in the adage that sometimes you need to spend money to make money. A short list of the ways businesses can spend their resources to grow:
- Building new facilities or improving equipment to meet growing demand or function more efficiently
- Investing in research that pays off in new home-grown products
- Acquiring a valuable company or existing asset (like a patent)
Yet all of these expenses will only pay off if the strategic vision behind them is sound. If it's not, you have squandered the money — and actually have done more damage than if you never spent a dime in the first place.
Let's start with the idea of spending to expand operations, perhaps the most obvious way to grow. Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) is a good counterpoint to the idea that "more is more" in all cases. Consider that the company was forced to closed hundreds of shops thanks to overexpansion — then saw fiscal 2008 net income plummet 97% thanks to costly restructuring charges related to undoing that expansion and laying off workers. It not only misspent on growth, but then had to pay to undo the mess.
How about research? Well, it's only worth it if you work on a good idea. Just compare startup biotechs where one company discovers a viable treatment and the other gets poor marks by the FDA in its clinical trials. The first soars higher … the second goes bankrupt, with nothing to show for all the cash it burned on drug development.
Then there's the idea of buying out a competitor. Wall Street is full of good and bad examples. Google (NASDAQ:GOOG), which bought Android in 2005 for a mere $50 million, might have made the deal of the century on that one. But the failed buyouts are just as glaring. Take Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:HPQ) and its stupid purchases of Palm and EDS that recently resulted in an $8 billion writedown.
In other words, cash is only as good as what you do with it.
Leadership — Not Cash — Matters
Hopefully, investors know the names of our current cash kings. If not, here's a short list of the heavyweights and their approximate bank accounts:
- Microsoft: About $62 billion
- Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO): About $49 billion
- Google: About $42 billion
- Oracle (NASDAQ:ORCL): About $31 billion
- Apple: About $28 billion
- Pfizer (NYSE:PFE): About $24 billion
- Amgen (NASDAQ:AMGN): About $22 billion
- Chevron (NYSE:CVX): About $21 billion
- WellPoint (NYSE:WLP): About $20 billion
- Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM): About $18 billion
And for the record, that's just cash and short-term securities — not longer-term investments or other assets. For instance, Apple has an additional $92 billion in long-term investments on top of this war chest.
But frankly … who cares? If Microsoft can't figure out what comes next in a post-PC age, it's cooked. If Pfizer and Amgen fail to develop new drugs, their pharmaceutical pipeline will dry up.
You get the idea.
Perhaps the most compelling is the fact that these cash levels continue to rise — implying that these stocks either don't see anything worth spending money on, or that they're afraid to bother in the current macroeconomic environment.
Either way, whether a company has $1 billion or $100 billion is irrelevant if there's nothing to spend it on. So start thinking of these stocks based on their corporate vision and place in the 21st century global economy … not as rich power brokers with some kind of influence that other stocks don't have.
What About Dividends?
There are, of course, rare cases when companies actually decide the cash should go back to stockholders rather than just sit in the bank. AOL (NYSE:AOL) announced a massive $1.1 billion dividend and repurchase deal earlier in 2012 … and the stock doubled as a result.
But clearly those kinds of moves are the exception, not the norm, and it's naïve to think the 10 aforementioned corporations will do something similar anytime soon.
It's nice to be profitable, and to avoid paying fees and interest on corporate debt to finance growth. It's also nice to have money socked away in case you want to make a big move later, or to weather short-term troubles such as an economic downturn. But the reality is a huge stockpile of dough in and of itself is pretty meaningless when investors analyze a stock.
Instead, look at a stock's leadership and potential for growth based on management and innovation. Money is a powerful tool if a stock is pointed in the right direction … but not worth the paper it's printed on if the corporate vision is flawed.

Thieves (Dodookdeul) Movie Reviews
Thieves (Dodookdeul)
Release Date: Oct 12, 2012
Genre: Action/Adventure
Rating: (NR)
User reviews on Thieves (Dodookdeul)
This is an action/adventure film about five thieves who are on their biggest job yet, the film is directed by Dong-Hoon Choi and starring Gianna Jun, Hae-suk Kim and Hye-su Kim. I did not like this film and do not recommend seeing it in the theaters. The film was way too chaotic for my taste and I could not really follow it which is obviously a problem for a film that is trying to become an international blockbuster. The film is basically a bad copy of Ocean's Eleven, I could not understand who was the main character, what was the plot and overall the point of this film. Overall, I suggest you save your money and time and see a better film.

At just past the mid-point of the Q2 2013 earnings season, the percentage of companies reporting actual earnings above estimates is 73%. This percentage is equal to the 4-year average of 73%. However, the earnings growth rate for the second quarter has only increased by one percentage point since the beginning of the earnings season. On June 30, the earnings growth rate was 0.8%. Today, the earnings growth rate is 1.8%. Over the past four years, the median increase in the earnings growth rate from the end of the quarter through the end of the earnings season has been five percentage points.
The answer can be found in the surprise percentage reported to date for the second quarter. The surprise percentage reflects the amount (in aggregate) by which companies are reporting earnings above the estimates for a quarter. At this point in time, the surprise percentage for Q2 2013 is 3.2% (i.e. companies in the S&P 500 are beating EPS estimates in aggregate by 3.2%). This percentage is below the 4-year average of surprise percentage of 7.0%. In fact, if 3.2% is the final surprise percentage for the quarter, it would reflect the second-lowest surprise percentage for the index since Q1 2009. The lowest surprise percentage recorded to date since 2009 was in the third quarter of 2012 (3.1%).
Unless there is an improvement in the surprise percentage during the second-half of the earnings season, there is a good chance that the Q2 2013 quarter will finish with the third lowest earnings growth rate recorded by the index in the past four years, trailing only the Q3 2009 (-15.3%) quarter and the Q3 2012 quarter (-1.5%).

Well you can relive those memories in a dark cave with a giant Cthulhu monster in Evolve! Video here.
Halo: The Master Chief Collection Nov. 11th 2014 - Halo has come a very long way and it's almost been 10 years since Halo 2's release on the original Xbox.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Plus GT-P8200 is seemingly made for Europe
Samsung is getting ready to announce several new Android Jelly Bean tablets, and one if them is the Galaxy Tab 3 Plus GT-P8200.
Of course, we're also going see the Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 GT-P5200 pretty soon – however, this will likely be an affordable 10 inch tablet, while the GT-P8200 Tab 3 Plus should be a high-end, expensive one. According to the info previously found at Samsung Mobile's website, the GT-P8200 will have a display with 2560 x 1600 pixels, just like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus 10.
While we don't know when the Tab 3 Plus P8200 is going to be available for purchase, we've discovered – thanks to the Bluetooth SIG – that it should be released in Europe at some point. Sure enough, this doesn't mean it won't be launched in other regions. We'll probably see it in the US, too, featuring LTE connectivity, and being sold by major carriers (Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile), sporting different model numbers. Furthermore, Samsung is likely planning to offer the new tablet in its home country as well (South Korea).
The Tab 3 Plus GT-P8200 could be officially presented on February 25, at MWC 2013, alongside the Tab 3 10.1, the Galaxy Note 8.0, and other new Samsung devices (mostly Android-based). We will let you know when it happens anyway.

|Sake cup, guinomi, wood-fired, Shino glaze, by George Gledhill. H.2.125"(5.25cm) x Dia.4"(10cm) x Footring Dia.1.625"(4.25cm). There have been several influences to George Gledhills ceramic work. Buddhism has been a guiding force in life for many years, and George even visits local prisons to teach the Dharma to inmates. Through pottery and Buddhism, he was exposed to Tea practitioners who complimented his work and encouraged him to produce Tea wares. Their introduction to the world of Tea Ceremony has helped to shape much of his recent work. In the past, George served in the Peace Corps in Bolivia, working with local potters and using only materials available locally. They dug all of the clay, made the bricks, built the kilns, and formulated glazes from whatever materials they could find. The only firing fuel was wood. This experience led to a great respect for the results of working with unprocessed materials, and especially for the magical qualities of wood firing a primitive kiln. These pots were fired in an anagama kiln (built by George ten years ago) on Georges farm in Payette, Idaho a few years ago. They are primarily wood-fired, created using mainly raw materials available in the Pacific Northwest. The whole process is marked by a great deal of physical labor, but this is the only way to get the results he desires. Currently, George is on the West Coast taking a break from making pots to further his studies in Buddhism.

Scientific Misconduct Is Jeopardizing the Quality...
Peptide Drugs Are Not Only Diverse...
Widespread Adoption of Biomarkers Has Been...
Diseases of the Eye That Cause...
Adding Novartis' Afinitor® (everolimus) to exemestane therapy against advanced breast cancer significantly improves progression-free survival compared with exemestane therapy alone, according to interim Phase III trial data. Novartis says it plans worldwide regulatory submissions for the drug as a treatment for estrogen receptor-positive, locally advanced, or metastatic breast cancer, by the end of 2011.
The global Bolero-2 study included over 700 postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer whose disease had progressed despite initial treatment with the nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors letrozole or anastrozole. The trial was stopped early after the positive interim data showed everolimus plus exemestane extended time without tumor growth.
Everolimus is approved in the EU for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in patients whose disease has progressed after treatment with VEGF-targeting therapy. In the U.S. and Switzerland the drug is approved for the advanced RCC indication after the failure of either sunitinib or sorafenib treatment. Clearance of everolimus in the U.S. for treating subependymal giant cell astrocytoma (SEGA) associated with tuberous sclerosis (TS), covers use of the drug in patients who require therapeutic intervention but aren't candidates for curative surgical resection.
In May Switzerland also approved everolimus for the SEGA associated with TS indication in patients aged three years and over who are not candidates for surgery. In June the European Medicines Agency's Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use recommended approving everolimus for the treatment of SEGA associated with TS.
Afinitor was cleared by FDA for treating progressive neuroendocrine tumors of pancreatic origin (pancreatic NET) in patients with unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic disease in May. Regulatory applications in the EU and other markets are also in progress for use of the drug against carcinoid tumors, an indication for which FDA has ruled that the safety and effectiveness of everolimus hasn't been established.
Everolimus is separately approved in the U.S for the prevention of organ rejection in adult kidney transplant patients, and in Europe for preventing organ rejection in heart and kidney transplant patients.

Cave paintings dating back 25,000 years testify to humanity's profound urge to create images.
Students in this studio learn the formal aspects of painting, from organizing the picture plane to mixing colors. Students also explore new ways of thinking about space, form, line, texture, and pattern as well as various approaches to applying paint.
Class projects are primarily structured around observed subjects, such as the still life and the figure, but they also include exercises that pull from the imagination or expand into abstraction. Students learn to ask themselves not only "How do I paint?" but also "What do I paint, and why?"
Visits to San Francisco galleries and museums enhance the studio experience.
Painting is paired with Drawing.

In a recent interview, Raffaelle Sollecito wondered why Amanda Knox showered at the crime scene before returning to his apartment the day her roommate Meredith Kercher was murdered, according to CNN. Sollecito probably should have talked on the witness stand rather than wait until after he was convicted of murder in Italy and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
Was Sollecito covering more for his girlfriend than himself when he failed to take the witness stand? The presiding judge spoke out shortly after his trial and told an Italian newspaper based in Milan Sollecito might have fared better if he'd been a witness rather than simply a defendant.
His Italian attorney Giulia Bongiorno attempted to separate Sollecito from Knox at the trial, saying that Raffaelle was not like a puppy dog, willing to do anything Knox instructed him to do. He would not have killed someone just because Knox ordered him to do so. Bongiorno is reputed to be the best female attorney in Italy by many. She is also a member of the Italian parliament. She also played a role in the removal of Italian president Silvio Berlusconi from office, according to Marie Claire news.
Presiding Judge Alessandro Nencini told Corriere della Sera on Feb. 1 that if "Amanda had gone to work that night we probably wouldn't be here."
Corriere della Sera is one of the most respected newspapers in Italy with a daily circulation of about 800,000. It also has an English edition which is read around the world. The paper was established in 1876.
Knox was supposed to be at work at a bar that night while Sollecito was to pick up a friend's luggage at a train station at 8:15 p.m. Nencini said during his interview that when they didn't go where they originally planned to go at 8:15 "an opportunity was created."
And now Raffaelle's American attorney John Kelly said that his client should not be judged simply because he was Knox's boyfriend. Both Bongiorno and he appear to be trying to distance their client from Knox who returned to Seattle, Washington shortly after an intermediate appeals court in Italy reversed her conviction by the trial court.
Knox has said she will never voluntarily return to Italy, despite the fact she is now sentenced to 28 years in prison. Sollecito is still in Italy and cannot flee the country to avoid prosecution.
In his CNN interview and again in a later discussion on Italian television, Sollecito said, "In my case I did nothing wrong and I don't want to pay for someone else's peculiar behavior."
He further said, "I asked her 'Why did you take a shower?'" He said he also asked her why she spent so much time at Kercher's and her apartment before she returned to his place. He said he never received any real answers from Knox.
He also said she seemed "extremely agitated" when she returned to his place.
We will know more when we read Judge Nencini's written report.

Take the following two scenarios:-
Developer A has created a set of reports:- Report A shows details of Audi car sales Report B shows details of Mercedes car sales Report C shows details of Volvo car sales, and so on for each of 30+ manufacturers. So we have 30 report files (.rpt).
Developer A has done this so he can assign different security permissions to each AD group of users:-
Group A can only see Audi car sales, Group B can only see Mercedes car sales, Group C can only see Volvo car sales, and so on.
Developer B has taken a different approach:-
She has created a single report (one .rpt file) that accepts a 'manufacturer' parameter in order to display the data for any manufacturer.
In both scenarios the reports are loaded from a report 'menu'. In the first scenario a hyperlink for each manufacturer takes you to the relevant report. In the second scenario the same hyperlink supplies the manufacturer name to the single report as a parameter.
The downside with this scenario is the single report file cannot be locked down to a specific set of users. If the report was locked down to Group A, then Group B or C could not view it at all.
Onto the question:-
In order for us to make the second scenario viable we would need a way of checking to see if the current user, or the current users group has access to view the data they are requesting.
I was thinking of using a custom function, something like
CheckAccess(Username,Manufacturer) that returns a true or false, and depending on the return value either redirect the user to load the report, or to an error page respectively.
Another option would be to set up roles for each manufacturer, then assign the roles to each group of people. Could a custom function then be used to check if 'Bill' has the 'Audi' role ??
Looking for ideas here as to the best approach.

Despite their description as "Modern Folk Music," don't expect to see one microphone and two guys with guitars when Nashville's Neulore takes the stage tonight at Rockwood Music Hall in NYC.
Oh, there will be a microphone, and the two masterminds behind the group, Adam Agin and Tyler Cook, know their way around a six string, but this is far from what you would normally expect from folk music.
"I think the reason why we chose that (Modern Folk Music) is in the sense that we value storytelling," said Agin. "And that's where we pull the folk from – valuing the story - and rather than the record being individual songs about all different things, it's a very continuous story, like each song is a new chapter."
And there is a cinematic feel to their work, with each song able to stand on its own, while still fitting as a piece of a bigger puzzle. It's allowed them to build a substantial buzz over the last couple years, making anticipation for the release later this year of their debut full-length album, Animal Evolve, reach a fever pitch. And not just for listeners.
"The record's been done for a long time," said Agin with a chuckle. "We also have another record written in the back pocket whenever that day comes."
That's called beating the sophomore jinx before it even comes up on the radar, but after the release of the first single "Shadow of a Man," it's clear that life is about to change substantially for the duo once the rest of the album hits. And that's just fine with them.
"As much as it's about building a brand and the music, this is all very personal to us," said Agin. "This is our blood and sweat, so we're mentally preparing for it. I think a lot of people sell themselves short and almost feel like they can't allow themselves to dream and achieve those huge goals. And we don't limit ourselves with that. We have goals and we want to grow and we're okay with it."
"If you don't take the time to grow at the right pace, that's when people get in trouble," adds Cook. "I feel like if it takes a little bit of time, then it's probably a healthy thing."
It has been a steady climb for the pair, first with the positive reception to their 2010 EP Apples & Eve, then with "Shadow of a Man" finding a place on ABC's Grey's Anatomy. And while seeing their stories placed in a completely different one could be a cause for concern, to Agin, it's just another example of the power and individuality of music.
"We've very thankful for those opportunities to have our songs in television shows, and the way to know that if it's a good song is that it can affect people in different ways," he said. "It may not affect you in the way we were intending it to, but it's meeting you where you are as a person, and that's what we're striving to do. We're not only singing to people who are brokenhearted or that aren't full of joy, but to everybody. Wherever they are in their life, they can relate to this music."
So where do the stories come from for Neulore?
"From the start, Adam's been a really conceptual thinker when it comes to this," Cook explains. "He'll dream up a world that the record's going to take place in, a place with all the things that he needs to build a structure for the record to live in. Then the fun part for me is trying to figure out how to bring what I do into that and make sense of it. And when we're writing them versus what they end up sounding like on the record are two totally different things. We usually try and take the approach that the song needs to be able to stand up on its own with just an acoustic guitar or a piano, and then we move on from there with producing it."
"The cinematic aspect is very important to us, so when we're recording the song, we're trying to imagine what scene it would be in and trying to fit the scene with the sound, so it's cohesive," said Agin. "Even the vocabulary we use is very intentional, and with our stage setup we pull these visuals to the language we use and to the aesthetic we bring. So it's all very cohesive."
Yeah, doesn't sound like your typical folk act to me either, but that's okay, because Neulore, like Mumford & Sons and other groups with folk influences, are bringing the genre into 2014, making it modern, just the way they described it. As for Animal Evolve, get ready, because it promises to be something to hear, both musically and thematically.
"I think what I would take away from it, listening to it not as someone who made it but as a listener, is a sense of humanity," said Cook. "There's definitely a feeling that to be human is to also be broken, but to be broken is one of the beautiful parts of being human. We're all the same in that there's not really any beauty without a lot of struggle behind it to get somewhere."

Dr. Diane Conrad is Associate Professor in the Department of Secondary Education with a focus on Drama/Theatre Education and Curriculum Studies. She completed a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing (Playwriting) at the University of British Columbia and a Bachelor of Education degree at the University of Ottawa with drama as her major teaching subject. Her first teaching experience was as a volunteer with World University Service of Canada in Lesotho, Southern Africa where she spent five years. She taught in the Northwest Territories for three years before coming to Edmonton to do graduate work. She obtained her MEd and PhD at the University of Alberta.
In the Department of Secondary Education, Dr. Conrad teaches undergraduate curriculum and instruction courses in drama education and graduate courses in curriculum foundations, curriculum inquiry and arts-based research.
Dr. Conrad has published in academic journals in the areas of education, drama/arts education and qualitative research, and regularly presents at conferences locally, nationally and internationally.
Graduate students with an interest in drama education, applied theatre, youth justice, "at-risk" youth, participatory research, arts-based research or other areas related to Dr. Conrad's research are welcome to contact her.
A critical educator, Dr. Conrad's research in curriculum and pedagogy in the area of drama/theatre education uses popular or applied theatre approaches with "at-risk" youth.
Her doctoral research involved doing participatory drama with a group of rural Alberta students to explore their experiences around issues they identified as relevant to their lives including experiences deemed "at-risk." Her research re-framed the concept "at-risk" based on the perspectives of youth.
Conrad's current funded research uses popular or applied theatre with incarcerated youth at a local youth offender facility. Her study The Transformative Potential of Drama in the Education of Incarcerated Youth won the 2006 SSHRC Aurora Prize.
Dr. Conrad uses participatory arts-based methods in her research. Participatory research is a new paradigm approach which focuses on the collective production of knowledge, community dialogue, education for consciousness raising, and mobilizing for action. Her research in youth justice has a strong advocacy component. Arts-based research is an emerging and innovative qualitative method which brings together arts-based practices and scholarly inquiry. Specifically she uses applied theatre, as a participatory and performative pedagogical approach and research method, and performed ethnography or ethnodrama as a way of disseminating her research.

PodCamp NYC & MOUSE.org
By robin on Apr 28, 2008
Talk about showing up at places and nobody knowing why you are there. PodCamp NYC is one of those events. Sure, there were a few who understood that we provide the backend infrastructure for those cool new Web 2.0 companies but why do we care about podcasting, among other Social Media technologies?
Tom Taylor and I manned the table representing Sun and explaining things like Startup Essentials, the Sun Web Analytics Solution and other upcoming technologies. We showed presentations of where and how Sun plays in this space and even had Second Life at Employee Island running for a bit (before the unconference wifi died).
We quickly realized that it would be beneficial for us to have more representation at these conferences including session attendees. So, I switched focus and sat in on several session where I made lots of new contacts.
The opening session was brief. They just wanted us to dive right into the unconference and make sure we understand the ground rules. This is our conference. There are no attendees, just participants. And, we are all bound under the Creative Commons sharing license.
Then it was down to business. The first session I attended was called Teachers Teaching Teachers and it discussed a weekly podcast used to show teachers how to use technology in the classrooms. What I found most interesting about this, as it relates to Sun, is the host used for these podcasts. It's called EdTechTalk and I believe that it would be an ideal forum for Sun to host a show called "Startup Essentials for Students". Additionally, I met some folks who work at Carrot Creative who are very interested in partnering with Sun on some startup initiatives. Overall, it was quite a productive session to attend.
The session on using technology for differentiated instruction was interesting because it talked about ways that technology can reached underserved populations, again feeding Sun's notion that helps bridge the digital divide. The Second Life: Shifted Learners session was quite amazing. A middle school teacher is using Teen Second Life in extraordinary ways to teach students about immigration, bring literature to life and learn about body image, among other things.
The afternoon sessions I attended were equally engaging. There was a session on Social Media and issues around safety and privacy. The big message here was transparency and to remember that you are the same person online vs. offline. The session on Education 2.0 spoke of ways to use 2.0 technologies in the classroom and in every day life. One women spoke about how she creates a wiki page for her holiday gift list and how she recruited (dragged?) her family into using it. The last session was about how organic adoption of social media is the best method for corporations. Social media works best when it is not a campaign! I believe Sun gets this message but it was nice to hear.
Overall, I think that our attendance at this event was both important for our presence alone and with our Platinum sponsorship even better and also important as a way to keep a pulse on what is going on in the industry.
Just wanted to add a few notes here about "Bring your child to work day". Overall, I think the day went well. We showed a Mitel demo to the children which they enjoyed. But, I think the highlights for them were the sessions on "Eco" and on gaming. In the afternoon we hosted several high school students from MOUSE.org, an organization that creates technology opportunities for underserved students. I presented Sun's vision to them and how we are utilizing Web 2.0 technologies to be more productive at work. Then two of the students presented to us. One about an inventory solution he worked on and the other about a wiki site he build for "One Laptop Per Child". It was great to hear these students presenting on something they were passionate about and then ensuing conversation that took place was insightful. One question that was posed to the students was what they would like to see out of Sun. The answers, like a "Web 2.0 Operating System", were quite interesting.
Ok, that's all for now....
Hope you enjoyed this review.

This weekend is known as Palm Sunday weekend.
So what?
It's a fair question. In our culture, the significance of sacred days and times has long been forgotten. We live our lives on the surface of frenetic activity, seldom adding depth to any given moment. We surf and skim over a body of information, but rarely dive into the depths of knowledge, much less wisdom.
There are no "thin times," as the ancient Celts would have noted; times when the separation between the eternal and the temporal was thin enough to walk the soul between both worlds.
But without that sensibility, we are lesser people.
So here's the "so what."
Palm Sunday is the traditional beginning of what has been known throughout Christian history as Holy Week, a week designed to focus our attention on the "passion," or suffering, of Christ.
The story of Christ (a title meaning "messiah") is the story of God Himself coming to earth in the form of a human being, a man named Jesus, living the perfect, sinless life and then willingly going to the cross in order to die for the sins of the world.
The tradition of Holy Week began when Christians making pilgrimages to Jerusalem had a natural desire to re-enact the last scenes of the life of Christ in dramas.
There is an ancient text called The Pilgrimage of Egeria which describes a fourth-century visit to Jerusalem. It was noted that people were already observing Holy Week by this point in history, so it dates back many, many centuries.
There are five days in this week that are set apart:
It begins this weekend with Palm Sunday, and then includes Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and then Easter Sunday.
Maundy Thursday denotes when Jesus washed the disciples' feet during what is known as the Last Supper on the night He was betrayed.
The word "Maundy" is built off of the Latin word for "command;" when Jesus washed their feet, He said, "A new commandment I give you – love one another as I have loved you." It's why some churches actually have a foot-washing ceremony or service on Maundy Thursday.
Good Friday is the day we mark the anniversary of when Jesus was crucified. I know; the word "good" is a misnomer.
Or is it?
Sin is not good. Suffering is not good. But what Jesus did for us, what His death accomplished on our behalf – that was good. Good because He took on our sins, and then hung in our place, paying the price for our sins so that we could be forgiven.
Holy Saturday, the day before Easter Sunday, marks the time of Jesus in the tomb. To be honest, little is associated with this day, though it is named. Perhaps because few know what to do with the obscure verses Peter offers surrounding Jesus' descending into the depths of hell. The medievalists called it the "harrowing of hell," and that is perhaps its fullest sense.
What is certain is that it was a victory lap.
And then, of course, comes Easter Sunday when we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. A day that so altered human history that we are still talking of it, and marking it, over 2,000 years later.
Each day rich with meaning, significance, and spiritual admonishment.
But it all begins this weekend, with Palm Sunday, the day of the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem.
From the gospel of Mark:
As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethpage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, 2 saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks you, 'Why are you doing this?' tell him, 'The Lord needs it and will send it back here shortly.' "

There were 341 fireworks-related injuries and fires reported to the state Fire Marshal's Office by fire departments and hospitals in 2013. According to a news release, the majority of these incidents occurred on July 4, with demographic trends indicating that the highest number of injuries were sustained by males 36 years and older.
The incidents of greatest concern:

The purpose of Open Door Baptist Missions is to promote the work of Christ in regions that have been closed to the gospel or that presently have little or no gospel witness. We strive to accomplish this task while the Lord has set before us an open door (Revelation 3:8). This is done through the collective support of local churches.
We stand ready to help fundamental, Bible-believing churches place their missionary candidates on the field of God's call. It is our desire to give the Gospel to those who have never heard.
We endeavor to partner with those who are already laboring in the harvest fields and help train those who will be the leaders of tomorrow.
Monthly Missionary Updates
►The Lord is leading Elena Caballero to a short-term ministry to the deaf in Guatemala. She will be encouraging teachers and helping an inexperienced teacher with great potential, to gain confidence and training. Elena is also surveying other opportunities for ministry in El Salvador. Pray for Elena for safety, for wisdom, for effectiveness as she serves, and for God's leading regarding long-term ministry.
►Dan & Edna Cadavos are asking for prayer as Edna is being treated for bone cancer in the Philippines. They sense the Lord's comforting presence. A number of souls have received salvation, and church members are taking on extra responsibilities. Please pray for healing, for wisdom, for a clear testimony of trusting in the Lord, and for her family in the US that are far away at this needy time.
From the Director
When followers of Christ are faithful in making new disciples, churches are planted and the Gospel is spread worldwide. Persecution forced the early believers to flee Jerusalem to surrounding areas. (Acts 8:1-4) They preached the Gospel and made disciples everywhere they went. That pattern continued throughout the New Testament resulting in churches planted throughout the known world. Christ is building His Church today in the same way. Twenty young disciples of Christ recently surrendered to being missionaries in Myanmar. They will be joining other national missionaries to preach the Gospel and plant churches in remote villages. Whunga Baptist Church was just formed in a remote village in Zimbabwe where two African brothers have endured hardness and preached the Gospel for years. God has blessed their tenacity with nine new members being baptized into the infant church. As we faithfully make disciples at home and partner with laborers around the world, Christ is glorified!

Recap | Box Score | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2
Arizona Head Coach Sean Miller
"It was important for us to come out with a lot of energy today, because we came back from Florida at three in the morning after a hard fought, overtime game. We didn't have a lot of recovery time, and it took us a lot of effort. I told the team that we win as a team and lose as a team, and that there is nothing wrong with losing a hard-fought game on the road."
"When Clemson came out with that run in the second half, I was very glad to see Solomon Hill's performance. He really took over and did exactly what we needed him to do. We really had a lot of quality play from a lot of individual players today. Kyle Fogg's defensive effort was great, and it was good to see Josiah Turner return to us. I know that sometimes it's difficult to come back into the mix after a missed game, but I think he handled it very well, and we will continue to see more and more good things from him."
"We are getting better on defense. We're not a very big team, but there were times when Clemson had the ball down low and we would swarm them, which we have to do. We learned a lot about defending the low post from our game at Florida and really used that today."
"Angelo Chol is really starting to impact the game, especially on defense. Over the last two games, he's had some quality blocks, and unlike most young players, he is gaining weight, which is really helping his performance. I think today was his best game at Arizona, and he is just going to get better."
"A lot of our guys are going into their last semester, and the have either three or four finals next week, which is a lot of pressure. We also have a number of younger players that we want to ensure remain academically eligible. We'll really use this week to have a chance to heal up, and make sure that our guys are doing well in school."
Arizona Player Quotes
#44 Solomon Hill
On Arizona's play before and after the 4:23 timeout in second half
"Today on the court I had flashbacks, and then after the media timeout, we came back and scored four points, which I was thrilled about."
On Nick Johnson, Josiah Turner and the team's consistency
"Nick flourishes in the way that we play. He has consistent plays and as a team we have all learned to be consistent. Josiah threw the team for a loop when we went to Florida."
On Josiah Turner changing his habits
"I talk to Josiah, and because he is a freshman he has to do so much and learn very fast. He has to change some of his daily habits."
On his personal progression from his freshman year
"My freshman year on the team it took a long time to get to where the team ended up my sophomore year. I think by the Pac-12 play the team will have made progress by then."
#13 Nick Johnson
On his two positions and transformation in college
"I am going to continue to play both spots [point guard and shooting guard] and get better at both. After playing the 10 games that I have played in college I've notice that this is a huge adjustment. I'm right where I expected to be in college and in and out everyday, Kyle Fogg has helped me. He is a huge part of my transformation."

We've posted on dad TRAVIS FOX before.
Why was father under investigation for shaking his newborn son to death allowed to return to the family home where he killed his other baby son in the SAME way?
Travis Fox confessed to killing his two infant sons Travis Fox II and William Fox - 18-months apart
He was under investigation for his first child's death by shaking when his second son was hospitalized and died the same way
Fox has a history with drugs and anger issues
By PAUL THOMPSON
PUBLISHED: 15:01 EST, 18 March 2013 | UPDATED: 08:09 EST, 19 March 2013
Hard questions are being asked in Springdale, Washington County, after a 24-year-old father appeared in court today charged with the violent murders of his two infant sons - 18-months apart.
Travis Fox admitted to police in the Arkansas city that last week he shook his seven-month old son William to death after consuming five beers on Wednesday and then confessed to killing his son Travis Fox II the exact same way in 2011 after a tequila binge.
And despite his fiancee's shock at his admission, it has emerged that Washington County sheriff's suspected him of murdering his first child as did the couple's church pastor - but no charges were pressed and he was allowed to return home to ultimately kill again.
Seven month-old William Fox, died at Northwest Medical Center from injuries as a result of being violently shaken in his parents home on Wednesday last week.
Questioned by Springdale police, immediately after, Fox told investigators 'that he violently shook the child for an extended amount of time because the child was `fussing,' said officers in a news release.
'He demonstrated the shake and it was violent,' said officials, who added that Fox said he had been heavily drinking before shaking his infant son to death.
While Springdale police officers were investigating the death they learned Fox was already under investigation by Washington County sheriff's for the death of his other son Travis II 18 months ago.
Travis II died from 'suspicious' injuries in September 2011.
An autopsy was inconclusive and Fox was never charged with any crime - despite the strong suspicion of the Washington County Coroner.
Indeed, after the death of his latest son, the coroner remembered Fox and contacted police.
In addition, the Foxes pastor, Tim Estes admitted to 40/29 News in Arkansas that after the memorial service for the couple's first child, he felt uneasy about the circumstances.
'I have to tell you some alarm bells went off in my mind when the first baby was brought in. Something felt uneasy in my spirit,' said Estes.
But in the aftermath of the terrible crimes against two defenseless children, hindsight is proving no help for those who knew Travis Fox.
Estes told 40/29 that Fox had been known to suffer from drug and anger issues and he had tried to help him as a youth.
Neighbors also said that they sometimes heard the Foxes argue. Angela Robison who lived in the same Olivewood Apartments as the Foxes said she would hear him argue with his wife Tiffany - who is currently pregnant with twins.
Family home: Travis lived at his Springdale, Arkansas, home with his wife Tiffany and their sons,
'She would say 'he hit me' and he would say 'I didn't,' said Robinson to 5newsonline.
'I would tell him 'come to my house before you hit her, come down and talk to me' because we were close.'
'Just, poor babies and I don't understand how he could do it. I know he admitted it but still hard to actually think of him because he wasn't like that.
'My kids picked on him and played around with him and he never got mad.'
His wife has claimed she knew never saw this coming and has disowned her husband, labeling him a 'baby killer'.
Incredibly, having escaped punishment for the murder of his first son, Fox and Tiffany had an falling out around a year-ago and he begged his wife to let him come home.
Judging by the dates on his wife's myspace.com page where he posted his apology, Tiffany would have been four-months pregnant with William.
'I miss him so much thats (sic) also my son,' wrote Fox. 'I love the hell out of him. Babygurl I love u (sic) so much too.'
It was while being questioned, Fox allegedly confessed to killing both his children.
He told investigators his first child died after he shook him for 30-45 seconds.
'Mr. Fox said he was angered and tired because he was up for two days without sleep,' a prosecutor wrote in his report.
The report says Fox told the investigator that he admitted drinking tequila the day of the first death and that he'd tossed the child on a chair.
