*** This review may contain spoilers ***
George Willoughby has returned from WW II. There's an estrangement
between him and his seven year old daughter, Diana. He apologizes to
her for having been away so long. He had no choice. Shortly afterwards,
Diana walks away and gets lost - probably in the nearby swamps. She
can't be found. Decades later: Kathryn, George's wife, is very ill. She
is going to die soon. She says she has lost all hope of ever seeing
their daughter again. She thinks it was wrong to hope for such a long
time since it made her think about Diana's and her misfortune too much,
so life wasn't as good as it could have been; she should have faced
reality sooner. Is there really no chance left to see Diana again?
This is a quite sentimental story. If you don't like 'tear jerkers' I think you'd better not watch it. I think it's comparable with 'Dorothy and Ben' (#1.18), also a quite sentimental story. The stories also have the same main theme: the afterlife. I liked 'Dorothy and Ben' better; I think it is more mysterious (Ben's telepathic communication with Dorothy) and has a little more suspense (will Dorothy wake up from her coma?). But I liked this one, too. I think the theme of the story (the afterlife) is very interesting. (But I don't say that the story is very profound; after all, it is only about 20 minutes long). I also liked the music. It's more conspicuous than most other scores in this series. It is by Georges Delerue. I liked his music for 'The Doll' (#1.22) better, but the music for this episode is still so good as to deserve mention.
All in all, a good episode in my opinion. I think if you liked 'Dorothy and Ben' you will probably like this one too and should consider watching it when you have the chance.
WWII ended only months ago and a father worries that his daughter
doesn't understand why we was gone for many of her formative years.
Considering he was fighting in the war, you can only assume his 8
year-old is a moron--else wise she would have known where he was, why
he was gone and the sorts of things he was doing! During a picnic with
her girl scout friends and her parents, the kid disappears. The police
arrive and tell the parents that there's quicksand near the park
(?????????????????????) and perhaps she wandered into it and died.
Quicksand...right next to a park...right!!
A whole bunch of years suddenly pass and the parents are now oldsters. As she lies in bed waiting to die, the mother is saying that their past decades were a waste--due to false hope that their daughter would somehow return. They apparently wrote a book about all this and how craptastic their life was due to the disappearance of the kid. The husband, in response, whines about how he cannot live without her. Suddenly, there's a knock on the door...their little wayward brat has returned home--and she looks just like she did in 1946.
From my description, you can tell I didn't like it. The show was manipulative, saccharine and just didn't make any sense. Well made, technically, but as was too often the case with the series, it was apparently written by chimps...
Snotty little girl goes missing. She probably went down in the quicksand. Her family lives their lives in the shadow of her death, never quite being what they could be. This is a perfectly legitimate plot setup. We go way into the future. The father is now a doddering old guy and his wife is dying. They have run a school but no longer have the energy to keep things going. This is understandable. He is having trouble letting her go (as if he had any choice in the matter). Now we bring in a bunch of sentimental schlupp with the daughter showing up in her Girl Scout uniform, at the door. It gets really maudlin and predictable. It's a plot that has been done about a thousand times already.

a bunch of sissy boys in a band that play pop music. ie: linkin park. contrary to popular belief the backstreet boys and nysnc are not boy bands. they only sing, therefore they are groups. you must have a few ppl playing instruments in your group to be considered a band.

I wouldn't even call these "bands" because they play no instruments and can barely sing. To make matters worse, every one follows the same formula:
-- the good looking guy;
-- the talented guy (the only one who can actually sing);
-- the shy, quiet guy;
-- the "older brother" type; and
-- the "bad boy."

A musical group whose frontmen consist of a group of male singers (they may or may not play another instrument). In order to qualify as a boy band 1) they must not write thier own music and 2) thier main fan draw must be how attractive they are. Point one can be waved if they really suck.

A group of 3-5 homosexuals who claim to love girls. They lip-sync to terrible sounds and their songs are always about wanting to be girls and craving penises up their asses. The fact that this is music and popular proves humanity is doomed and music is dead.

Solar power has the ability to harvest energy but can it also harvest money?
According to a new study from the economic consultancy AECOM, simpler solar permitting processes could generate over $5 billion in additional growth for California, an increase in nearly 20 percent.
"These findings are tremendous for local governments because they offer a low-cost way to add billions to the economy," says SunRun Director of Government Affairs Ethan Sprague. "Governments that streamline their permitting processes sooner will generate a bigger economic impact in the long run, more permanent local jobs, and allow more families to save money by switching to solar."
The AECOM forecast also indicates that failure to adopt more efficient home solar permitting processes could jeopardize the already expected $30 billion economic gain from natural solar market growth in California.
In January SunRun issued a report, "The Impact of Local Permitting on the Cost of Solar Power." That report showed local solar permitting and inspection processes cost an average of over $2,500 per home installation. It also helped inform the Department of Energy's (DOE) recently-announced SunShot Rooftop Solar Challenge to make solar affordable for more Americans.
This new report from AECOM is a follow-on analysis that calculates the economic and fiscal benefits of streamlined permitting for the state of California.
"Local solar energy creates jobs and helps America move away from dirty and increasingly expensive coal-fired power," says Bill Corcoran, western regional director of the Sierra Club's Beyond Coal Campaign. "We hope the report's findings will encourage governments across the country to reform permitting processes and accelerate our nation's necessary transition to reliable renewable energy."

Comments about 'Farmers and ranchers: Utah's environmental workforce'

Re: "Farmers and ranchers are proven and committed environmental stewards .
. . justifiably concerned about the regulatory overreach of the Environmental
Protection Agency."
Hear, hear!
Utah is the premier tree-hugger target it is today, only because Utah's agriculture and mining families have been the premier stewards to the land they've been for 165+ years.
That stewardship is, sadly, being overruled and the environment damaged by absentee Washington landlords with little concern for or commitment to sustainability of our environment -- at least as concerns human beings [who they consider a noxious infestation] as part of the environment.

Farmers and ranchers are businessmen. Their motives and goals are for the most
profit from their efforts.
They are no different than the other businessmen who complain about the regulations protecting their customers.
Their propaganda overstates their patriotism, morality and value to our society. They are simply Americans, like the rest of us.

Farmers and ranchers are environmental stewards like they're safety conscious...it only works when there are a whole lot of exemptions not available to any other business. Or, as a cow calf operator once told me, as he was burying a bald eagle that had been bothering his calves, 'shoot, shovel and shut up'.

The 'Dust Bowl' of the 1930s provides an important lesson about
farming practices and environmental stewardship. The practice of deep-plowing
and stripping the land of natural grasses for crops and then letting them stand
bare in the off-seasons resulted in the erosion of some of the earth's
greatest top soil -- a product that had been created over millions of years.
Drought and winds simply blew that resource away, bankrupting farmers and
contributing to the 'Great Depression' -- demonstrating the value of
environmental stewardship and economic sustainability. Without protecting their
resources, farmers couldn't survive.
While farming practices have come a long way since then, new environmental challenges continue, from the use of pesticides and water to patented genetically-modified seeds that allow for weed control, but also place farmers and humanity at the mercy of paying for patents on seeds and foods from big agricultural concerns, such as Monsanto. Corn seeds, for example, are no longer a gift from God, but a patented-product own by corporations.
In sum, for farmers to be seen as stewards of the land and environment, they need to be proactive in addressing environmental and social concerns about the industry.

And, if you'd read the article, you'd know some of the ways farm and ranch families, along with their trade organizations, like the Farm Bureau, are doing exactly that.

I've found one of the tenets of dishonesty in local politics is to give
awards and accolades to people for something they do the opposite of.
The most dishonest Judge I've ever heard of in Idaho received awards for honesty and fairness from one side of a water dispute. Cough.
So giving accolades to the farmers of Utah carte blanche without even a suggestion of something they could do better smells of self serving platitudes and public relations to me.

Yeah, and another is to disingenuously attack and demonize people who've done nothing wrong because they're in the way of one or another liberal political agenda item.

You can tell it once had the makings of a five star- but it is far from it. The staff are very disorganized.
After paying 30US dollars for 10 nappies- the entire rest of the stay was littered with issues.
It took us over three hours to get our second room- only after calling four times. Every time repeating the story as to why we were waiting. Only to eventually raising a fuss in order to get a room by 830pm so the kids could sleep.
We received a wake up at 6am- letting us know we needed to check out. We said they have the wrong room- so they came to the room and told us in person. Which we said again- wrong room. Which woke up the entire family.
Both rooms and the restaurant had severe mosquito issues. Coils, spray, and patches were no match for the Mosquitos the hotel had. Everyone walked away with numerous bites.
The beach and pool facilities were the only saving grace.

Human nature at both endsDecember 19,2013
Human nature at both ends
Congratulations to Rob Roper for pointing out that at some point of eligibility for benefits, some people game the system and take advantage of our tax dollars doing it.
That some people are making poor moral choices in this terrible economy should come as no surprise. Mr. Roper, we would all like to see the economy healthier for everyone. Sadly, as human nature leads to bad judgment and poor choices sometimes encouraged by the power of big clumsy government is it not also human nature for successful people with extra large resources to try to grow their gained advantages? Are you telling me that the astounding gains of the wealthiest Americans and the paltry flatline of so many of the rest of us is OK? That this push for wealth often legally gained through diligence and legal investment isnt also human nature?
Once, on the radio, I heard with my own ears an executive with Goldman Sachs reminded that his company had petitioned Congress for years through lobbying and contributions to make it real easy to set up those complex financial packages with lower and lower collateral. Asked by a reporter, didnt he think those might be dangerous and we all know the result in the many billions in losses to them and so many others he replied: Sir, I liken this to the responsibility a parent has for a child. If the government thought there was anything unsafe about that, they shouldnt have let us do it.

Skip to comments.US considers exchanging Jewish spy for jailed Fatah leader
Posted on 12/06/2005 1:49:57 PM PST by SJackson
click here to read article
"I take it you are puzzled that people in Israel want him back at all, then...?"
Not a bit puzzled.
The leaders of the Israeli government are much more hard-minded, but if the Americans are behind this initiative, as I expect they are, they are relying on the soft emotionalism of the Israeli people for a man who has been presented to them as a suffering martyr for Israel to put political pressure on the government that a Sharon, eager to create his new party, will be loth to defy in an election cycle.
This gets rid of a US public relations problem with Israel.
The only problem is trying to figure out the sense in the US game here. Bagoudi seems like a pretty bad candidate for release.
Of course, over the past few years American intelligence and foreign policy operations have proved catastrophically inept and foolish, so there may not be any deeper American plan here other than naive reliance on assurances of goodwill and hoping for the best. The current team has given no-one any great cause for confidence that they know what they're doing.
This story sounds ridiculous.
"Barghouti's wife, Fadwa, said her husband's strong showing is a message to Israel that "Marwan is not a terrorist"
Really? I thought it was the other way around.
Here is what is wrong with your analysis. The Jews In Israel and in US that care about Pollard are the same ones that are hardliners on terror. They would not advocate for such a trade releasing the terror master Barghouti.
Sheetrit and Beilin who want Barghouti freed could care less about Pollard. They are in the game, to use your expression, because they believe in Palestinian democracy and believe that the Palestinians will reform and abandon terror. They and their followers could care less about Pollard. Just read what they said -- nothing on Pollard, all about Barghouti's potential.
Stupid idea. They're both criminals. Keep them both in jail.
second the motion.
"Any chance that mole computer program was also responsible for bringing down Challenger?"
I am now cleaning coffee off my monitor.
"Here is what is wrong with your analysis. The Jews In Israel and in US that care about Pollard are the same ones that are hardliners on terror. They would not advocate for such a trade releasing the terror master Barghouti."
Well, then it's another foolish gaffe by the US government that won't work. The American government's to see Bagoudi released does not make much sense to me at all. Why not, instead, kill off these terrorist leaders when captured to clear the decks for others who are willing to be more reasonable to take over. There could be no movement at all so long as the old terrorist Arafat was alive. He needed to be dead for anything to happen, because the power of his connections could not be overcome by reasoned self-interest and fear.
Seems to me that the template needs to be to kill the Palestinian terror leaders (and footsoldiers) whenever you get them in your power. Don't detain them and release them. Kill them. And keep on doing it until you've thinned out the ranks of militant leadership.
Then someone like a Jerry Adams will step forward, someone who may be bloodyminded as hell, but who will play the game politically. You don't like him, and you don't trust him, but there are basic rules of the game. Get the gun out of Israeli/Palestinian politics in the same way that Adams and Trimble got the gun out of Irish politics, and you will have come a long, long way towards resolving the issue.
That assumes that it can't be resolved, and that it's not really Amalek versus the Hebrews, and ordained by God and the Devil to be a perpetual war which can never be resolved until the end of the world. This may be the truth of the case, but we can't base our policies on that assumption.
So, let's just say that the American game here seems to be to try and work with some known terrorist, and to dangle Pollard out there as a worm. And this game seems pretty foolish, by my lights.
Satellite imagery from a US KH-11 satellite ... was used to plan the 7 June 1981 attack on the Tammuz-1 reactor at Osiraq, Iraq. This attack, carried out by 8 F-16s accompanied by 6 F-15s punched a hole in the concrete reactor dome before the reactor began operation (and just days before an Israeli election) and delivered 15 delay-fuzed 2000 lb bombs deep into the reactor structure (the 16th bomb hit a nearby hall). The blasts shredded the reactor and blew out the dome foundations, causing it to collapse on the rubble.
25 years of a world without a Iranian nuclear threat resulted - definitely good for the U.S. The threat is back and it will again have to be dealt with.
If my understanding is correct, could you direct me to a source?
Pollard and Barghouti can both rot in their respective jail cells forever as far as I'm concerned.
Same with Mumia Abu-Jamal.
Just let 'em rot.
"Well, then it's another foolish gaffe by the US government that won't work. '
I suspect the Israeli left here pushing their agenda.
"Then someone like a Jerry Adams will step forward, someone who may be bloodyminded as hell, but who will play the game politically."
I think the US, Pres Bush and Secretary Rice, think Abbas is that man. The US has engaged in this wishful thinking before, and it has led nowhere good. PM Sharon has no such illusions. Disengagement was the unilateral act of a government which saw no one who could make or keep a deal on the Palestinian side. The Road Map is being imposed.
"Then someone like a Jerry Adams will step forward, someone who may be bloodyminded as hell, but who will play the game politically."
"I think the US, Pres Bush and Secretary Rice, think Abbas is that man. The US has engaged in this wishful thinking before, and it has led nowhere good."
I guess the difference is that Jerry Adams and most of the people on both sides of the sectarian divide in Ireland really did want peace after 800 years of war. They really don't like each other, but they really do want peace.
By contrast, the Palestinians really don't.
And that makes all of the difference in the end.
Once you get peace with an Adams, you can keep it, because he wants it. Even if you and he hate each other's living stinking guts.
But you can negotiate a thousand cease fires with people who want the truce only to kill you some more, and you'll never get peace.
The destruction of Tammuz-1 reactor at Osiraq, Iraq, set back the Iranian nuclear threat for more than 20 years.

|Would Paul Pierce play for Celtics again? 'Yeah, why not?'
|03.07.14 at 11:22 pm ET
Asked if he would consider playing for the Celtics again, the team's former captain Paul Pierce said, "Yeah, why not? Maybe play for them. Maybe work for them. Who knows what the future holds?"
Pierce, who scored 10 points in a 91-84 loss to the C's on Friday night, has told reporters all season he would like to join the team's front office when his playing career is over, but this is the first time since joining the Nets he has mentioned potentially playing for his former team again. Pierce is in the final year of his contract with the Nets.
Meanwhile, Pierce had plenty to say about current Celtics captain, even joking about the media firestorm that raged after Rajon Rondo stayed in Los Angeles for his birthday while the C's played on his off day in Sacramento.
"Me and Rondo share a special bond. We'll always be friends. We'll always have something in common with our championship. Our kids still hang out together. They hung out for his birthday actually." Pierce paused for laughter. "I respect him and what he's doing moving forward with this franchise, and it will always be that way."
After watching Rondo surpass his career-high in 3-pointers for a season with three in the first quarter, Pierce complimented his former teammate on the added dimension to Rondo's game.
"He's unstoppable. I've always said, the more he improves, the more he expands his game, he's one of the best. If he's coming down and knocking down 3's, it's almost impossible to keep him out of the paint at times. The way he shoots that floater, the way he finds people in traffic, if he consistently knocks down that shot, watch out."
There wasn't nearly as much fanfare surrounding this Paul Pierce return to Boston, but the Celtics ended up on the winning side this time around, defeating Pierce's Nets by a score of 91-84.
Rajon Rondo led all scorers with 20 points, adding nine assists and seven rebounds, and the Celtics (21-41) recovered from Wednesday's miserable loss to the Warriors to snap a two-game losing streak. Jeff Green (15 points), Kelly Olynyk (13 points) and Jerryd Bayless (14 points) also reached double figures.
The Nets (30-30) fell back to .500, as Pierce finished with 10 points.
Moto Rondo: Perhaps motivated by the presence of rival Deron Williams and old friend Paul Pierce in town, Rondo came to play. He connected on his first three 3-point attempts, setting a new personal standard for a season, and scored 13 first-quarter attempts. The triple-double watch began early, and the C's led 26-20 after one.
Technical KO: After scoring a team-high 19 points against the Warriors (somebody had to), Olynyk said he felt like he was figuring out opposing NBA defenses — how different players defend the pick-and-roll, drive-and-kick, etc. — and it showed again Friday. Scoring from 3-point range, on the drive and in the post, he abused Mason Plumlee early, even if Plumlee isn't exactly Kevin Garnett. Now, Olynyk only needs to figure out his own NBA defense, but he showed grit, slapping the ball out of Shaun Livingston's hands as he attempted a few post-whistle layups. Had he made the trip, Garnett would've respected that. If only he were in Boston to tutor Olynyk on that end.
3 party: In addition to Rondo's trio of 3-pointers, undrafted rookie Chris Babb drained a couple and the Celtics connected six of their 13 attempts from long-distance before the break. (Like Chris Johnson before him, Babb is earning well deserved playing time purely on effort.) But the bigger story was Brooklyn's futility from beyond the arc. The Nets missed all 17 of their first-half attempts and naturally trailed 53-41 heading into the locker room.
|Rajon Rondo gives Louis Corbett his autographed game-worn sneakers

Rajon Rondo gets a lot of flak, but this was an extremely cool move. The Celtics granted 12-year-old New Zealander Louis Corbett's wish of seeing his favorite team play before losing his eyesight to retinitis pigmentosa.
Corbett's favorite player, Rondo, who greeted him before the game, made sure Celtics public relations director Heather Walker delivered his autographed game-worn sneakers to the young boy. The Corbetts posted video of his reaction on their Facebook page. Rondo being Rondo, he probably would have preferred nobody ever knew.
As Brad Stevens said after the C's lost 108-88 to the Warriors, "It's the way we should be. It's the way the organization should be. We should give back to the community. I don't know that we should necessarily be applauded for it. I think we should just do it, and stories like that are uplifting to all of us."

|Nets' Kevin Garnett (back) will not travel to Boston
|at 4:40 pm ET
Kevin Garnett will not make the trip to Boston for Friday's final home game between the Celtics and Nets, according to multiple reports out of Brooklyn.
The former Celtics star will miss a fourth straight game with back spasms. He has averaged 6.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 21.0 minutes over 49 games for the Nets (30-29) this season. Mason Plumlee will start at center in Garnett's absence.
Paul Pierce, however, will make the trip. He is averaging 13.5 points (43.2 FG%), 4.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 28.8 minutes over 54 games in a Brooklyn uniform. The Celtics paid video tribute to Pierce and Garnett in their emotional return to the Garden on Jan. 26.
"I think as long I'm in the NBA, it's still going to be a little emotional for me," Pierce told New York Newsday. "I played so many regular-season games, so many big games on that floor, so many memories that are never going to go away on that floor. So, it's still going to be a little emotional. Probably not as much, but when you have those memories, it's tough to let it go."
Likewise, the recently signed Jason Collins will be in uniform for the Nets and make his first Boston appearance since the Celtics traded him to the Wizards for Jordan Crawford last season.
|Gerald Wallace undergoes surgery, officially out for remainder of Celtics season
|03.04.14 at 1:04 pm ET
Gerald Wallace is officially out for the remainder of the season, the Celtics announced on Tuesday. He underwent separate arthroscopic surgeries to repair a torn meniscus on his left knee and bone spurs in his left ankle.
Thus ends the first season of the cumbersome three years and $30.3 million remaining on his contract when Boston acquired him in the trade that sent Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to the Nets this past summer.
After failing to show up for his introductory press conference, he professed his love for David Ortiz and Tom Brady at Media Day. That's where the highlights of his first Celtics season begin and end. The former NBA All-Star averaged 5.1 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.3 steals in 24.4 minutes over 58 games — all while regularly calling out his teammates over a lack of effort.
Meanwhile, Kelly Olynyk (toe) has shed his walking boot and could return from his two-game absence for Wednesday's home tilt agains the Warriors. Likewise, Avery Bradley (ankle) will undergo an MRI to determine his status, according to reports out of Celtics practice.
|Rajon Rondo's birthday bash: 'My business, not yours'
|02.27.14 at 12:58 am ET
In typical Rajon Rondo fashion, the Celtics point guard addressed the media in Boston for the first time since the Boston Herald report claiming he skipped the team's trip to Sacramento without permission.
What does he make of the media firestorm unleashed after his alleged decision to remain in Los Angeles to celebrate his 28th birthday with friends and family? "I haven't really read much about it," he said. "I heard a lot of comments. Nobody knows the story, so you guys keep making up every story you guys possibly can."
What, exactly, is the story? "It's my business," he followed. "It's not yours."
Likewise, Celtics coach Brad Stevens told reporters prior to his team's 115-104 victory against the Hawks that the organization would handle the matter internally. According to the Herald, C's president Danny Ainge will meet with Rondo next week upon returning from a college scouting trip and has not ruled out a fine.
|Celtics trade rumor: More Rajon Rondo rumblings
|02.18.14 at 9:42 am ET
The NBA trade rumor mill is really churning now, and it should come as no surprise Celtics point guard Rajon Rondo's name repeatedly rises to the surface.
As Rondo said, "It's been like that my last eight years as a Celtic." Other teams want an All-Star, All-Defensive point guard, and they want him cheap.
Here's the latest that'll make Danny Ainge chuckle.
According to the Toronto Sun (h/t SB Nation), the Raptors would like Rondo, and the C's may budge on the alleged asking price of two first-round picks, citing a source who believes Ainge would welcome "at least one lottery pick and talented young player."
It's no secret Boston has dangled four-time all-star Rajon Rondo league-wide and while the asking price is steep, he has piqued the interest of Toronto's front office, according to multiple sources. Toronto is eager to up its 'star' quotient and is also enamoured with Rondo's resume, particularly his four all-defensive team selections (two all-NBA first team). He has many backers in the organization.
Oh, one of the game's top five point guards has piqued their interest? Well, then, we might as well lump the remaining 28 teams into this rumor. And is it no secret the C's have dangled Rondo league-wide? Time and again, Ainge reminds everyone willing to listen the phone may ring but he's not making the calls about his lone star.
Take this retread rumor, for example. As a number of less reputable outlets reported two months ago, the Kings offered Isaiah Thomas, Ben McLemore and a pick in exchange for Rondo, according to Yahoo's Marc J. Spears. Except, "Rondo wasn't interested in re-signing with Sacramento and the Kings strongly value McLemore." Let me get this straight: Sacramento didn't want to part with Ben McLemore for Rajon Rondo. That must be it. And there's the small matter of that deal missing roughly $10 million in salary to make it work.

The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans rejected Yahoo's bid to move the trademark suit brought by American Airlines in a Texas court.
One has to wonder how long it will be before Yahoo settles with American Airlines, like Google did last year. If the case goes to court and Yahoo loses could it create a change in all paid search?
Google no longer runs ads for any of American Airlines' trademarks – though they do carry ads for companies advertising on other airlines' names. But Google settled and no precedent has established."Each side agreed to pay its own legal fees, and American recovered nothing from Google, according to an order signed by Judge John McBryde," USAToday reported.
"Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Yahoo wanted the case transferred because its sponsored search agreement says any disputes must be settled by courts there or another site picked by the company," local ABC TV reported. But the court found that did not apply to the lawsuit.

One of the better episodes of the season. Great one-liners. Everyone is sitting around talking about Adam's hippy parents and how they are always sending some real winners to visit Adam and Jennifer. Adam walks in and announces that this is Toby, he's Amish. "Jackpot!" Russell calls him "Quaker Oats" and agrees reluctantly to show him around New York.
Audrey has a really obnoxious co-worker who is pregnant and she is getting forced to do all her work. One of Audrey's other co-workers misinterprets something Audrey says and they all assume she's pregnant too. Getting her out of all that extra work and her own!
Of course she and Jeff have been trying to get pregnant so now she has even more incentive. So she walks into the house, Jeff has his beer, his chili, and the game, but sex trumps them all so he's into the bedroom in a flash. Afterwords when she continues to act amorous he says, "I think I can rally, but twice only!" The next day he comes to her office all peppy because he is happy with his performance and when everyone congratulates him he thinks it because of the "two times" because he doesn't know everyone thinks Audrey is pregnant. He is so proud he manages to get the subject into every conversation he has much to Audrey's chagrin. Meanwhile Russell is totally corrupting Toby. The funny thing is in the end Toby returns to his home claiming no one could lead such a worthless life (like Russell's?) and thanks Russell for showing him how he is not really missing anything.
I must admit I saw the way Audrey's tale of pregnancy was going. The other workers immediately assume when she tells them she is not pregnant that she lost the baby. They feel sorry for her and tell her to go home and relax for a few days. Which she happily does.
Thanks for reading...moreless

The Montoya Campus program opened in January and offers tutoring in math, biology, chemistry and English, for all levels taught at CNM.
"From surveys we have taken, we know there are plenty of students who qualify to participate in TRIO. As a new program, we are looking for students we can help succeed," Martinez said.
TRIO is one of seven federally-funded United States Department of Education grant programs that serve low-income, and/or disabled, and/or first generation college-bound students. To qualify, students need to only meet one eligibility criteria, not all three. TRIO is looking for students who are determined to attend and succeed in college and will benefit from professional assistance to help them accomplish their academic and career goals.
To be eligible for TRIO Student Support Services, students must:
Students accepted into TRIO have access to academic, career and personal coaching; financial assistance; tutoring support; college success workshops; TRIO computer lab and study area; cultural, education and community events; student leadership opportunities; networking with and support from people with similar goals and challenges.
TRIO's goal is to help students succeed in college and achieve their dreams.]]>
"We are encouraging all companies that have an IT need to consider participating in NMITAP and use apprentices," said Sue Buffington, project director for the NMITAP program. "Whether the company has an established apprenticeship program or would like to start a new one, NMITAP staff will assist them through every step to ensure the successful training and up-skilling of applicants and existing employees."
By working with employers, apprentices will develop an in-depth understanding of their roles in the company and be able to use their skills to meet real business needs. Dependable apprentices can also increase the company's productivity, increase profits and ensure a high level of service.
Funded by a $2,999,553 U.S. Department of Labor grant, the program is designed to teach apprentices necessary IT skills with on–the-job training and technical instruction and also train them to fit a company's culture and pace. The grant is part of the Labor Department's $175 million American Apprenticeship Grants program.
Apprentices, who can be first-time college students, current students or unemployed workers seeking skills and development, can pursue the IT program of their choice, including:
Hands-on apprenticeships are proven to be very successful pathways to high-quality, middle-class jobs. "In fact 87 percent of apprentices are employed after completing their programs, with an average starting wage of $50,000," the U.S. Department of Labor said in a 2015 news release.
Currently, several local employers, including Presbyterian Healthcare, Black Box Network Services, The Kemtah Group, Sandia National Laboratories, Nova Corporation, Rural Sourcing, Inc., New Mexico Higher Education Department, CNM and RiskSense, have expressed interest in using NMITAP apprentices. The program is seeking more employers in the community to participate.
Working with NMITAP as partners are New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions, New Mexico Technology Council, SUN PATH, Innovate+Educate, City of Albuquerque, New Mexico Public Education Department, New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department and the New Mexico Department of Health.
Visit the NMITAP website to learn more about participating as an employer or as an apprentice.
For more information on becoming a participating employer, contact NMITAP at email@example.com or (505) 224-5227.]]>

The two entities joined forces last year to create the NHAIW as a way to preserve and grow Hispanic traditional and contemporary art, all while encouraging interaction between professional artists/mentors, students, community members and visitors to New Mexico. Built on the current maker movement model, the NHAIW will make available a variety of tools, equipment and materials for building and creating. The workshop will occupy a to-be-renovated warehouse owned by the NHCC located on the southeast corner of Avenida Cesar Chavez and 4th Street.
Logo submissions are due by noon on June 1. Electronic submission of entries in PDF format are preferred, but hard copy submissions will be accepted by the Administration Receptionist at the NHCC (located in the NHCC's Visual Arts Building, on the second floor). Electronic submissions should be submitted in the form of a PDF file and be at least 300 dpi. The PDF packet may not exceed 10 MGB. The PDF file name should include the artist's name. The submission must contain:
Digital entries should be sent to email@example.com. Interested applicants should contact Lissa Knudsen at email@example.com or 224-4000 ext. 51040 for a detailed vision document of NHAIW and with any questions about the logo submission.
A NHAIW Logo Committee will review all logo artwork submissions and coordinate the selection of finalists, who may be asked to present their art and vision to the committee. The logo artwork selected to represent the NHAIW will ultimately go to a professional graphic design artist to be translated into a final graphic logo.
Community and student artists who have produced two-dimensional work, including drawing, painting, printmaking and graphic designs, are encouraged to apply. Current CNM and NHCC employees are not eligible.]]>
To qualify for NAEHS membership students must demonstrate dependable attendance, cooperative attitude and a strong work ethic. In addition, all of these students have shown remarkable perseverance in achieving their educational goals.
The ceremony was held at the Student Resource Center Richard Barr Boardroom, with Jesse Lovato serving as Master of Ceremonies. Director of Adult Basic Education Carol Culver and SAGE Dean LouAnne Lundgren officiated. Also attending was Vice-President for Academic Affairs Sydney Gunthorpe.
The students were awarded an NAEHS Society certificate, a recommendation letter from NAEHS headquarters for employment and promotion purposes and a recommendation letter for financial assistance, should they wish to continue their education. Family members and friends of each student helped with the pinning of an honor society lapel pin during the ceremony. Finally, students were reminded that they are lifetime members of the NAEHS. A celebratory reception for the students, their families, friends and teachers followed the event.
The students honored were Robert Lee Dustin Douds, Najibullah Farhad, Jiling Li Bandy, Urai Fazio, Juana Estrada, Reyna Alfaro Ortiz, Jaqueline Alamos Fernandez, Jerome Ndabirirorere, Frozan Popal, Cherisa Barker, Joseph Valencia, Corey Eldred, Miriam Villasenor Lara, Sulaf Alkwaz, Dora Tremillo Gonzalez and Belem Landa.]]>
"This aligns with the CNM vision statement of "Changing Lives, Building Community," said Angela Poppe, program coordinator.
The students took a total of 90 hours of coursework and hands-on training in the nursing assistant skills lab. Upon receiving their certificates, the students became home health aide workers and can now help disabled, elderly or people recovering from injury or illness who need care in their homes after discharge from the hospital or rehabilitation center.

Students who begin as sophomores can earn a CNM certificate or associate degree by the time they complete high school. The college credits also transfer to universities in New Mexico.
Last week, 52 CCHS seniors graduated with 2,000 college credit hours, an average of 38.5 college credit hours per student. Eleven students graduated with a CNM associate degree or certificate.
In each of the school's first two years in existence, it has earned an "A" grade from the New Mexico Public Education Department.

It took student Sophie Rider, a former Army combat medic, seven hours and 24 minutes to walk the route with her 20-pound backpack containing water and snacks. Colleague and friend Nathan Yellowman, a member of the Navajo Nation and former Army Ranger, ran most of the 26.2 miles with his backpack in six hours and 21 minutes.
"It was a great experience and very emotional," Rider said. "I pushed harder than I ever thought I could, and I'm excited to do it again next year."
Rider said she and Yellowman trained for several months, running 10 miles a training session and eventually going up to 20 miles. They went the full 26.2 miles for the first time during the marathon.
The Bataan Memorial Death March is attended by many of the survivors of the original march, along with thousands of supporters from around the world. The marathon had a 15-mile run for those who did not wish to run the full course.
Rider is studying to become a nurse, and Yellowman is in CNM's welding program.
Under the new agreement, EC-Council University will grant admission for CNM students upon completion of an Associate of Arts, Associate of Science or Associate of Applied Science degree. CNM programs recommended for transfer are Associate of Arts in Business, Associate of Applied Science in Computer Information Systems and Associate of Applied Science in Electronic Health Informatics.
CNM students with an associate degree and a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 will be considered for acceptance into the EC-Council's fully online bachelor's degree in Information Security. EC-Council University will accept 60 credit hours of coursework from an associate degree and apply them directly towards the 120 total credit hour requirement for the bachelor's degree. In addition, CNM and EC-Council University have identified courses that articulate and directly satisfy requirements within the general coursework of the bachelor's in Information Security.

CNM students participating in the contest in Florida included Samuel Choy, Jarett Jones and Jeffery Schlindwein. Others on the team who did not travel to Florida were Dominic Baca, Rebecca Becker, Jose Del Toro, Quyhn Do, Shane Kennard, Maximo Lazo, Ladonna Mayville, Usan Shrestha, Gregory Vigil and Rachell Young. Except Vigil, all students listed above are enrolled in Dr. Chu Jong's Robotic Programming, Modeling and Simulation course at CNM.
The competition was a NASA Minority University Research Program project, which strives to ensure that underrepresented and underserved students participate in NASA education and research. The Swarmies were designed through collaboration between the University of New Mexico and NASA Kennedy Space Center's Swamp Works facility. During the competition, the robots operated in concert to autonomously search for, retrieve and map resources. Eventually, robot swarms could be used on other planets, as well as on Earth, for resource exploration and other uses.
As NASA expands human presence in the solar system, like a journey to Mars, the goal of the Swarmathon competition was to develop integrated robotic platforms that could revolutionize space exploration.
UNM was selected last year to manage NASA's Swarmathon challenge, chosen from among a nationwide pool of 14 proposals after a rigorous peer review by education and technical experts. The university received an award totaling almost $1.8 million, paid in annual increments of $600,000 for a maximum of three years.]]>
The contest, sponsored by UNM's Chief Information Office, offered motivated students support to commercialize any market-worthy apps that resulted.
The scoring was performed in several categories, including:
CNM students on the winning team included Kimberly Keller, Tamra Fenstermaker and Bradley Brown. They participated in CNM's Deep Dive Coding Bootcamp at the CNM STEMulus Center, where students learn to become professional computer coders in a span of 10 weeks (40 hours per week).
"I went into Deep Dive last October excited to learn to code, which was a skill I had almost no experience with," Keller said at the award ceremony. "Six months later my team's capstone project won UNM's Mobile App Contest. I have to admit, I'm still a little shocked. Six months ago I never could have imagined how far I'd go in such a short amount of time."
When applications were completed, students were told to provide a link to their working app, a public code repository or an app store. They were required to present and demo their applications to the judges on April 11 at UNM.
Winners were selected on the basis of overall score from the judges. Prizes were awarded at a public event on April 22 in the UNM Student Union Building.
Director of CNM STEMulus Initiatives John Mierzwa and full-time faculty member David Beach coordinated the event from the CNM side. "It was fantastic to have our CNM students participate this year, and we're looking forward to next year," Mierzwa said. "All of the participants had great success with their apps, and the variety of community problems they're solving is inspiring to see."

The sophomores from that first academic year of 2013-14 will be the first class to complete three years at the innovative school and they'll be participating in CNM's Graduation Ceremony Saturday. In all, 52 CCHS seniors will be graduating with 2,000 college credit hours, an average of 38.5 college credit hours. Eleven students will be graduating with a CNM certificate or a CNM associate degree.
In each of the school's first two years in existence, it has earned an "A" grade from the New Mexico Public Education Department.
"CCHS has not only prepared us for college, but for life," said CCHS senior Diana Perales. "Without CCHS, I would never have found my passion for chemistry, let alone received my Associate Degree in chemistry at the same time as high school graduation."
The CCHS students typically spend half of their day taking APS classes, and the other half taking CNM classes. Tuition is free for CCHS students, and so are CNM textbooks, allowing the students and their families to save time and thousands of dollars on a college education.
"In my freshman year (of high school), I did not find school important," said CCHS senior Oscar Machado. "I never tried to set a future for myself. I started attending CCHS and it changed that for me. Once I took my first college class, it made me realize that education can send me towards a really positive direction."
Many CNM classes are transferrable to state universities. And some CCHS students have graduated from the high school with enough college credits to enter a university as a junior.
CCHS is located on CNM's Main Campus and CCHS students have access to the same student support systems as all of CNM's students, such as free tutoring, libraries, academic advising and achievement coaches.
There are 139 students (sophomores, juniors, seniors) enrolled at CCHS. CNM and APS plan to continue expanding the school in the years ahead.]]>

Joachim Splichal
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)(Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Joachim Splichal is a celebrity chef based in Los Angeles, California. In 1991 he was declared "Best California Chef" by the James Beard Foundation. Four years later in 1995 he was inducted into their "Who's Who of Food & Beverage in America". Splichal is best known for his fine dining restaurant Patina located in the Walt Disney Concert Hall (formerly on Melrose Avenue), his chain of Pinot restaurants and the Patina Restaurant Group.
Early life[edit]
Joachim Splichal was born and raised in Spaichingen, Germany. At age 18 he began in the hotel industry, working at leading hotels in Canada, Morocco, Israel, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. In his early twenties he moved to France to start his culinary training, working as a saucier at La Bonne Auberge, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Antibes in southeastern France. At age 23 Splichal was hired as a sous chef by Jacques Maximin to work at the Chantecler restaurant in the Hotel Negresco in Nice. Maximin became Splichal's mentor and during this period he began to win many culinary awards, including the "Youngest and Most Creative Chef" title from the Cercle Epicurean Society.[1]
Culinary experience in the U.S.[edit]
Splichal moved to the United States with only a few belongings in 1981 to serve as Executive Chef at the Regency Club in Los Angeles. In the years that followed he worked at the Seventh Street Bistro and began Max Au Triangle. Splichal opened Patina in 1989 in Hollywood with his wife Christine, an international business expert. Patina relocated to the Walt Disney Concert Hall in 2003.[2] Since 1994, the restaurant has been the recipient of the Wine Spectator Grand Award.[3]
Splichal's specialties are French cuisine and California Cuisine. Menu items at Patina include grilled hamachi belly, "minute poached" live spot prawn, and New York strip steak. Splichal's Pinot brand of restaurants offer signature dishes such as rosemary marinated quail, Arctic char with braised celery root and Piemontese tortelloni.[citation needed]

Dedicated to the art of street dancing, YOU GOT SERVED features some of the most talented and prominent kids on the scene in a drama filmed in the streets of Los Angeles. The picture opens at the warehouse of Mr. Rad (Steve Harvey), where dance battles take the place of actual fighting. Elgin (Marques Houston) and David (Omarion) are childhood friends who are determined to make a splash in the world as street dancers. But when they lose a battle to a rival crew from Orange County, and when David finds himself falling in love with Elgin's pretty sister, Liyah (Jennifer Freeman), a heavy strain is put on their relationship. This is compounded when Elgin gets jacked selling drugs for a dangerous crime lord, while David was busy sipping milk shakes with Liyah. Eventually, another tragedy forces David and Elgin to put aside their differences and come together to win a contest that will make them $50,000 richer and land them in a video for hip-hop superstar Lil' Kim.

Best Ofs 2014: Behind the look of the issue
City Pages art director Emily Utne prepares models for the cover shot, right
Yesterday, City Pages' Best of the Twin Cities 2014 hit the streets. Each year, we pick a theme to aesthetically carry through the issue. For this edition, we went with old Hollywood glamor, delving into the fashion of the '40s and '50s, and taking a page from entertainment scenes that include burlesque troupes, bellydancers, iconic songstresses, and fashion magazines.
The look of the issue is something we typically plan many months in advance, and this year was certainly no exception. Along the way, our arts director, Emily Utne, created the look of the issue through research, location scouting, and a whirlwind of photo-shoot preparation that included wrangling vintage duds, experimenting with props, and hauling a giant hairdryer up to our sixth-floor office.

Some points of inspiration leading up to the final shoot (right)
"As soon as we all agreed upon old Hollywood glamor, I immediately got excited," says Utne. "From image searching online, flipping through vintage magazines, scouring vintage stores, and hours in the Minnesota History Museum library, I drew inspiration from many sources. I have always been inspired by vintage fashion and magazines, but I hadn't really delved into the 1940s era much before."
Before the photo shoots for the issue were scheduled, we decided to create a short video to promote the issue and our Best Of party.
Photos by Benjamin Carter Grimes
"I researched videos of 1940's burlesque and bellydancers, and drew inspiration from Sahji," she says. "And one of the coolest things I've ever seen is Yvonne DeCarlo, from The Munsters, dancing backwards in this clip from the movie Salome, Where She Danced. I watched the full movie to see the dancing forwards, but it was actually played backwards in the film which is a really trippy scene."
Putting together the shoot for the cover images and inside photography, which references things like the sparkly world of burlesque and variety shows, as well as suburban utopia, was a whole different project, however.
"For the cover, I researched mostly Vogue covers from the '40s and '50s," says Utne. "I wanted the cover to be glamorous with a vintage reference, but bring it into today. And, after a very long winter, I wanted to add the brightness and beauty of spring and fresh flowers."
This involved shoots at the glamorous and historic Music Box Theater, as well as our not-so-glamorous office. Props, clothing, makeup, and lighting all helped to create a look that matches the era. While in the past we've mixed older pieces with retro designs from modern designers, this year we were all in with pieces from the period.
As usual, we worked through the issue as a team, adding new talents when necessary.
"I was originally planning to style the whole issue myself -- because I love styling and pulling clothing for shoots so much -- but I quickly realized that one person cannot do everything," says Utne. "I was so excited to bring Behtsee Millman on to help style, as well as model. She was so professional and organized and a great seamstress."

Instrumental rock-fusion quartet TAUK are proud to announce a new full-length studio album of original tracks will be released on September 16th, 2016. The yet-to-be-named album will feature Grammy-winning producer Robert Carranza (Mars Volta, Jack Johnson) at the helm. This will mark Carranza's fifth project with the band.
What to say about this show? I will say it was a Phish show: not a Mike show, not a Trey show, not Page show, not a Fish show. It was a Phish show, a whole band who interacted and engaged in a musical conversation throughout. Wrigley Field provided the place for them to engage us, the audience, in their conversation.
The excitement from the kick-off to Electric Forest 2016 continued into Day 2 of the 6thannual festival. On the morning of Friday, June 24 - whether having spent the night in a tent in the EF campgrounds, in one of EF's Good Life Village VIP furnished European cabanas, or in a Good Life VIP Back 40 Log Cabin or Home - fans awoke ready to continue exploring the many adventures awaiting them.
The 6th annual Electric Forest (EF) kicked off Thursday, June 23, welcoming 45,000 Forest Family to Rothbury, Michigan for a music and camping experience of a lifetime. The beloved festival sold out in record time again this year – a mere two weeks after tickets went on sale and prior to any lineup announcement.
In anticipation of their new studio album, Totem, The Motet reveal today the official video of previously unreleased track "Fool No More." The video brings alive the artwork from Totem for a funky, psychedelic journey through the album's second single.

Rebellious upstate New York rockers The Felice Brothers release Life In The Dark (Yep Roc Records) today. An album Consequence of Sound calls a "twisted American odyssey," it pairs songwriter Ian Felice's plainspoken poetry with the band's musical home-brew of rock, folk and blues. According to Felice, it explores the world "through the wrong end of a telescope into the perpetual apocalypse of everyday life."
