Peter Anspaugh Gets Dumped by An Angel—Wife Roma Downey
Maybe the heavens were trying to tell them something. Late last month—less than 2½ years after the actress and director (Hoosiers, Rudy) wed in an intimate Salt Lake City ceremony—Downey filed for divorce. The reason? In large part, both sides agree, it was Anspaugh's recently diagnosed depression, a condition for which he is now taking medication. "David has said he was not a barrel of laughs," says his spokesman Elliot Mintz. "His depression weighed heavily on their marriage."
The denouement, though, is a matter of dispute. Last month, Anspaugh, 51, left the country-style Salt Lake City home he shared with Downey, 37, and their daughter Reilly Marie, 22 months, and entered an Arizona treatment center. "David spent 2½ weeks there before Roma showed up and met with him and his therapist," Mintz says. "He had entered the clinic hoping to continue his marriage, but at that meeting Roma indicated it was over, so he felt no need to stay."
Della Reese, Downey's Angel costar and close friend, tells a different tale. "It's not that she left him when he was sick—that's the biggest lie," she says. "At the clinic he asked Roma, 'Are you going to take me back?' and Roma said, 'Not like this.' So he said, 'Well, I'm not staying here' and walked out—even though the doctors said he wasn't ready. Roma's terribly hurt. She was in love with this man."
The feeling was once mutual. On that first date—dinner and a round of pool in Venice Beach, Calif., in '94—Anspaugh knew "there was something potentially very serious here," he later said. Both he and Downey, a native of Northern Ireland, had been divorced: he in 1988 after 13 years of marriage to a cruise-line sales manager, with whom he had a daughter, Vanessa, now 18; she in the 1980s after a brief marriage to a fellow actor. And both knew the score on showbiz unions. "The business is littered with marital casualties, and we don't want to be a statistic," Downey said soon after they wed. "We've promised we'll never be apart for longer than two weeks."
The vow proved hard to honor: Angel tapes in Salt Lake City, while directing opportunities for Anspaugh—whose most recent feature was 1995's Moonlight and Valentino—are in L.A., where the couple have a second home. "Even when he was in Salt Lake, she was working 16 hours a day," says Angelo Pizzo, a screenwriter and Anspaugh's longtime friend. And as Angel broke into TV's Top 10, Downey emerged as one of Hollywood's hottest stars—which may or may not have bugged her beloved. "He hasn't worked since they've been together," says Reese. "He hasn't done anything but make her miserable and try to tell her she shouldn't enjoy her success. She bought him a mansion to live in, she put him in a good car, she put money in his pocket. I wish somebody would treat me that bad."
Whatever the case, the man Downey once said attracted her because "his whole face lights up when he smiles" was growing darker by the day. "He was becoming increasingly depressed for reasons he wasn't clear about," says Pizzo. Reese says he took out his pain on Downey. "She'd come home after a long day and there'd be no food. She'd say, 'Didn't you get me something to eat?' and he would say, 'What am I, your maid?' He's impossible. He's nasty."
And now he's on his own. For Anspaugh, who is negotiating to direct two upcoming feature films, "the drugs have really been helpful," says Pizzo. "He feels a lot better." That won't mean a second chance for his marriage ("Too much damage has been done," Pizzo says), but it could make for a more civil divorce. That, no doubt, would be a blessing for little Reilly Marie, the chubby-cheeked toddler both parents adore. "Because of Reilly, they have to come to terms," says Pizzo. "Roma and David are going to be joined in a relationship for the rest of their lives."

The Theme of Structure and Function in Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is a process that shows how structure and function unite as one in biology. We can first think about the structure at the level of the plant itself, and how the location of photosynthesis is important for its function. The plant optimizes where it conducts photosynthesis; that is, photosynthesis does not occur in every cell in every plant. Chloroplasts are mostly localized in the leaves, primarily in a special type of cell called a mesophyll cell. In a special type of plant called C4 plants, the light-dependent and light-independent cells are separated, with the light-dependent reactions occurring in the mesophyll cells, and the light-independent reactions occurring in the bundle sheath cells. This spatial separation of photosynthesis decreases the amount of photorespiration that occurs because it limits the exposure of these cells to O2.
On a deeper level, we can also think about where photosynthesis is localized within the cell: the chloroplast. During the light-dependent reactions, the pigments in Photosystems I and II absorb photons and transfer that energy through the electron transport chain. The localization of these reaction centers in the thylakoid membrane creates an environment well suited for easy energy transfer. Each carrier molecule is nearby, which makes energy transfer more efficient. Structure and function working together. Isn't that sweet?
However, separation is also critical for the light reactions to occur. Protons move from the lumen of thylakoid in the chloroplast to the stroma in an attempt to reach a proton concentration equilibrium. This gradient is critical for bringing the protons together with the electrons from the electron transport chain to then make ATP and NADPH from ADP and NADP+.
ATP and NADPH are then conveniently located in the stroma of the chloroplast, which is where these energy powerhouses are needed to generate carbohydrates during the light-independent reactions. The localization of the light-independent reactions in the chloroplast is important for another reason as well. Many of the enzymes used in the Calvin cycle are also used in other cellular biochemical reactions, and the localization of these enzymes in the chloroplast facilitates their use in the Calvin cycle.
In all of this, the ATP and NADPH generated during photosynthesis rarely make it out of the chloroplast. That has got to be a pretty boring existence for them. Reaction after reaction? Give them a break! But no, these energy reserves remain almost exclusively in the chloroplast, fueling the production of carbohydrates. The plant then sustains life by breaking down these carbohydrates and generating ATP and NADPH again outside of the chloroplast.

on U.S. Constitution
BPC professors present forum on U.S. Constitution
By Terry Gaston
BPC Public Relations
An examination of the U.S. Constitution
was presented Thursday, Sept. 22, by three professors in Brewton-Parker College's
Social and Behavioral Sciences Division in the Terry Parker Building.
"Taking the Constitution Seriously: A Forum on American Constitutionalism" celebrated
the drafting of the Constitution on Sept. 17, 1787 and was attended by Brewton-Parker
students, faculty and staff.
Dr. H. Lee Cheek Jr., division chair and political science and philosophy
professor, led a session on the lessons, goals and limits of the Constitution.
Dr. Sid Johnson, political science professor and vice president emeritus,
directed a session on constitutional models. Dr. Bill Faw, psychology professor,
led a comparison of the newly drafted Iraqi Constitution to the long-standing
American version.
Cheek presented the Constitution as representing
the American experience, that its goals are to build a more perfect union
and serve as fundamental law.
He said the U.S. Constitution is considered one of the greatest examples, with
its effort to impose order and fill a vacuum, and that its framers assumed
a "virtuous citizenry" when they drafted it.
In presenting the goals of the Constitution, Cheek noted its stability and
continuity in governing a country for more than 200 years, along with its efforts
to restrain government by establishing permanent arrangements of public officials
and others to represent the people and holds those public officials accountable.
Cheek said the Constitution's limits should only be first principles,
that they should not cover everything, and noted two states' constitutions
that are rather lengthy and thus could be deemed less effective. He also said
the Constitution should not conflict with the "invisible constitution" of
values and should be able to be easily changed or amended, which it has 27
times over the years.
Johnson began his session by remarking that Article II of the Constitution,
that dealing with the role of the presidency, was modeled with George Washington
in mind to become the first president.
Johnson also presented the separation of
powers among the president, representatives, senators and Supreme Court justices,
and the varying terms each serve. Concerning
the justices' unlimited terms based on "good behavior," Johnson
quoted The Federalist: "The justices have the least opportunity to do
Johnson also spoke on the checks and balances
provided for in the Constitution among the executive, legislative and judicial
branches, using as an example
the president's power to appoint officials – for example, the timely
issue of Supreme Court justices – while Congress must approve the president's
choices. "Chips of power are taken from one and given to the others," he
Johnson also spoke on the creating of the
Preamble by what was known as the Committee on Style. "Everything that is good, noble, progressive and
positive has served at least one of those six objectives," he said, then,
as segue to Faw's Iraq-U.S. presentation, he called the Preamble "The
mother of all mission statements."
Faw noted that Iraq's preamble was rather lengthy and based largely
on the area's link to history. Generally speaking, Faw also noted that
the Iraqi constitution provides for a weaker executive branch and a stronger
parliamentary format, which he said may be appropriate following the regime
of Saddam Hussein.
Faw then began his comparison with the free
exercise clause of religion, noting that the U.S. Constitution's is contained in the First Amendment but
Iraq's, in which "followers of every religion and sect are free," does
not appear until Article 40.
Faw also presented a comparison of an establishment
clause of religion. The U.S. Constitution contains no such establishment,
although Faw said five states' constitutions
beforehand had such provisions.
Iraq's document clearly states that
Islam is the official religion of the state and is a basic source of legislation,
and that the law cannot contradict
the rules of Islam. However, neither can it contradict the principles of democracy
or the rights of basic freedoms.
Faw examined Iraq's provisions for its Supreme Court, which will be
composed of "a number" of judges and experts in Sharia (Islamic
Law) and law, while America's justices are, in reverting to Johnson's
statement, are rewarded for good behavior.
Faw compared the methods for representation,
noting the U.S. Senate has two representatives from each state while the
House of Representatives' membership
is based on population. Iraq's Constitution allows for the merging of
provinces into regions, which Faw said could ultimately lead to national division
because of the different sentiments among the Kurds, Shiites and Sunnis.
"The American Constitution is not an example of immediate success, since
we have amended it 27 times in over 200 years," Cheek said. "So
it may take the Iraqis time to get their Constitution in order."
At the forum's conclusion, Johnson again quoted from The Federalist: "This
instrument is not perfect but may be the best we can do. But we have the opportunity
to determine what the affairs of men will be determined by accident or reflections
of men." Ultimately, the latter option resulted in the Constitution,
he added.

Dallas ISD's latest budget-reduction plan lowered to around $90 million for next school year
Dallas ISD trustees are expected to learn this afternoon that the district's latest budget-reduction plan would cut about $90 million from next year's budget, a steep decrease from what officials expected weeks ago.
The amount is $30 million less than what district officials planned earlier this month. The drop is due to negotiations between the Texas House and Senate, which have settled on about $4 billion worth of cuts to public education next two years. Months ago, Texas lawmakers proposed up to $10 billion in cuts.
The new proposal is part of budget Version 5.0, which Superintendent Michael Hinojosa will present at today's 1 p.m. budget workshop. The first proposal, a "worst-case" scenario, district officials said the district could lose up to $250 million each of the next two years.
Although $90 million is a lot — about 6 percent of the district's annual budget — the amount is much lower than what officials once feared.
In the district's previous budget-reduction proposals, the district expected state-funding cuts to jump from the 2011-12 school year to 2012-13 school year. It's not known yet the size of cuts the district could face in two years in the latest proposal.
The latest plan would reinstate some cuts suffered in previous proposals. The district will make the district's entire pre-kindergarten program full day. For the past five months, district officials said the program would need to be reduced to half day to save money.
The district is also expected to reinstate school monitors who patrol the campus hallways. Trustees had urged district officials to reinstate them.
Most importantly, if the trustees end up cutting $90 million from next year's budget, Dallas ISD won't have any additional layoffs. That's because more than 200 central office employees were laid off at the end of last month and about 1,000 DISD staffers recently accepted an incentive to resign.
Stay tuned for more updates throughout the afternoon.
UPDATE | 1:24 p.m. Texas lawmakers have agreed to cut $4 billion in public education funds the next two years, but they haven't agreed on how they will implement those cuts.
There are several ways to distribute the cuts, including basing the cuts on a district's property-wealth status. That means Dallas ISD doesn't exactly know yet the cuts they will face next year. Lawmakers in Austin are debating three different formulas, which would be three different scenarios in Dallas.
One scenario would cut DISD's state funds by $67 million next school year and $66 the following year. The next plan would cut DISD's funds $88 million next school year and $101 million in 2012-13. The third plan would eliminate $93 million in 2011-12 and $105 in 2012-13.
"What I'm going to give you today is not good news but it's much better news than what we heard all along," Hinojosa told board members.
UPDATE | 4:19 p.m. Here's budget version 5.0

Words: Pat Bridges Photos: Ryan "Huggy" Hughes (unless otherwise credited) I have been to 4 of the 8 Grenade Games. I didn't make the trek to Washington for the edible induced mayhem they had on tap at The Summit At Snoqualmie. Nor did I take time off of work for the very commercial though still highly debaucherous Whistler iterations of Danny Kass's shred centric love in. It was at the 4/20 inspired June Mountain events where I became taken with the Grenade Games charms. This was also where I began to look forward to the event as a reunion with the original Grenerds. Though Bear Mountain's version of the Grenade Games downplays the events stoney side it still lives up to its billing as a celebration of snowboarding's rebel roots. The Grenade of 2012, which includes a Fuel TV show, MMA affiliations and a die cut on every pickup at Camp Pendleton, may not resemble the endearingly anti-establishment stencil schtick of 2002, but when you step back and look at the players who made Grenade blow up at the onset of the new Millennium it is hard to not get nostalgic. This sentimentality is what makes my annual pilgrimage to the Grenade Games among the most memorable laps I take each season. Being able to strap in alongside those same Grenerds who made Main Park at Mammoth seem like home to me for five seasons is reason enough to ignore the bullshit surrounding what it has all become and simply drop in. Danny once again brought a lot of the band back together for Grenade Games 8. While riders like Erik Leon, Mads Johnson, Dustin Craven, Scott Blum, Harrison Gordon, Brandon Hobush, Zander Blackmon and Spencer Schubert were surely doing stunts stellar enough to turn every head on the deck at Bear Mountain, it was Brian Regis's backside rodeos, Colin Langlois's alley-oop line in the pipe and late 180's over the nipples, Dave Schiffs braces and Shane Flood's everything that got me hyped. While blackouts were abound everywhere you looked last weekend I was the one who was time traveling. Sadly that last part isn't truly the case because if I had that ability I would be at Grenade Games 9 already riding with Sketchy, Schiff, Shane, Colin, Regis and if I'm lucky Casillo, Beaman, Clancy, Leach, Rice, Keenan, Lane, Giaccomo, Rahm, Bobby, Reilly, Scotty, Morace and the rest of 'em including Matt!Read More

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception Multiplayer Details Revealed
Written Monday, April 18, 2011 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Once you've finished solo adventuring with Drake in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, chances are you'll be delving headfirst into the game's multiplayer modes, which developer Naughty Dog has exhaustively detailed on the PlayStation Blog, showing off two of the maps and some of the game types on offer.
First up is The Chateau, which has multiple levels that cater for the good old adventuring staple, the ziplines, whereas The Airstrip is a two-part map where the environment transforms mid-match, changing from a chase that involves a cargo plane and trucks, to a more conventional hangar and outdoor location where fighter planes make strafing runs.
Multiplayer modes will include Team Deathmatch, Three Team Deathmatch involving 2 vs. 2 vs. 2 battles, and the much-requested everyone for themselves Free For All mode. Late Join features will also ensure that matches are kept full, and the game will also support local splitscreen for two separate PSN IDs on the same console for appropriate game types.
Add to all of this the new Buddy system that involves collecting treasures and being able to spawn on your partner to stick together, and a host of new character customisation options offering hundreds of customisable parts for your characters and weapons, and that's a whole lot of multiplayer newness right there. Boosters will also make a return for Uncharted 3, with a mix of new and old Boosters.
Want more? How about social media integration via Facebook and YouTube? Or what about a sprint button? It's all in there. Oh, and there'll be co-op too. What's more, you'll be able to try all of this for yourself when the Uncharted 3 multiplayer beta gets underway worldwide on June 28th, 2011. Early access will be available to anyone buying inFamous 2 or anyone with a PlayStation Plus subscription. Phew!
Check out the multiplayer trailer for more and then have a look at 20 new screenshots in the gallery. Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception is out on November 1st, 2011.

January 24th, 2014 - 5:33am
(Port Angeles) Many families in Port Angeles will find their light bills smaller than before.
That's after the city council this week approved a new low income utility assistance program.
The city is implementing a two-tiered discount level of 25 percent, and 35 percent this year.
City Light's Customer Service Manager Rick Hostetler says the discount would only apply to electrical
charges...not the entire utility bill. The program will be
in effect until the money runs out. There is $150-thousand dollars
dedicated to the program, and Hostetler isn't sure how long that
will last.
If and when the money runs out. Hostetler hopes other resources
will be available.
Eligible City Light customers may expect to see any changes during the February billings.

SACRAMENTO A last-minute intervention by the Federal Aviation Administration halted the approval of a proposed Hayward power plant today.
Twenty-five minutes before the California Energy Commission was poised to vote on the 600-megawatt Russell City Energy Center, a safety manager for the FAA e-mailed the commission requesting time to research how the plant might affect aviation safety.
Pilots are worried that intermittent hot plumes of exhaust could rise quickly from the natural-gas-fired plant's cooling tower and interfere with passing planes.
"I'm asking for some time," said FAA Regional Standards Manager George Aiken, speaking in a conference call during the crowded commission hearing in Sacramento.
The federal agency's late-blooming concerns infuriated San Jose project developer Calpine Corp., which has been trying for nearly a decade to build the plant, and garnered sighs from state commissioners.
"It's unfortunate it's taken this long to wake up the giant in Washington, D.C.," said Commissioner Jeffrey Byron, joining others in asking why the FAA did not weigh in earlier.
In July, a different branch of the FAA indicated in a letter to the commission that the plant would not cause significant air safety problems because pilots could simply be instructed to avoid flying over it.
That was after a months-long review of the project by energy commission staff scientists who concluded the opposite: that the plant should not be built because of unresolved concerns about navigable airspace.
The two commissioners who have been overseeing the project, Byron and John Geesman, overruled their own staff's assessment in August and were going to recommend to the three other commissioners today that the plant be approved anyway.
But Geesman said at the hearing today that his views were based on his "faith and reliance on correspondence" received from the FAA over the summer.
After hearing from Aiken, Geesman said the FAA should be allowed to investigate its concerns in greater detail. The other commissioners agreed to postpone their decision for up to a few weeks but told the federal regulators to hurry up.
"This is completely unprecedented . . . and is not a good way of different government levels to interact," Geesman said.
Patrick Miles, a state aviation safety inspector, said the person who sent the July letter was from the airports division of the FAA, not the flight standards division of the FAA. Miles said the airports division looks primarily at the building itself when reviewing projects.
"It focuses on the height of the structure," Miles said. "It doesn't focus on the emissions that come out."
The FAA wasn't the only agency with last-minute jitters about the Russell City plant this week.
On Tuesday night, the Hayward City Council briefly considered and then backed off of an "emergency" vote to rescind its 2005 support of the Russell City project.
Councilwoman Barbara Halliday said "we certainly know a lot more things" about the plant and the environment than was known a few years ago.
"We have a difficult situation here," Halliday said. "I'm sorry it's come to this."

The driver of the vehicle struck in the side has died as a result of his injuries. His name is being withheld until next of kin has been notified.
Further investigation has revealed that a 2002 Nissan, driven by the abovementioned subject, was traveling north on Purdue Drive and proceeded through the green light at the Raeford Road intersection. A 2007 Chevrolet, driven by Christina Hart (26 years old of Hallmark Drive, Spring Lake), was traveling east on Raeford Road and ran the red light at Purdue Drive. Ms. Hart's vehicle struck the left side of the 2002 Nissan.

Eric Rolland (WRDW-TV)
GROVETOWN, Ga. (WRDW) -- The man seen on tape hitting 77-year-old Jacob Cooter is 42-year-old Eric Rolland.
After seeing this surveillance video on News 12 last night, Rolland turned himself in Tuesday.
"I thank Channel 12 because now we're getting some action," said Jacob Cooter. "He needs to pay for his little chop in the back of the head."
Rolland is now facing simple battery charges. The entire alleged assault started over who was next in line.
According to the incident report, Rolland claims Cooter made a fist, and then made a racial slur.
No one argues there was an exchange of words, but the gas station employees we talked to said they heard nothing about race. Same goes for Columbia County deputies.
"You can't go around popping people in the back of the head," said Cooter.
After watching the video of her husband getting hit in the head, Brenda Cooter is thankful because she knows this could have ended differently.
"I'm glad he's okay because he's so large. One blow to somebody's head from someone that big could break their neck." said Brenda Cooter.
The more she watched the more she wanted justice for her husband.
"If you're going to hit somebody in the back of the head that's obviously at least half his age and a lot smaller he's capable of anything," said Brenda Cooter
Cooter says if it wasn't on video, and wasn't on News 12 she doesn't know if her husband's alleged attacker would ever face charges.
"It's on the internet. This guy could realize it's on camera. Everyone's going to see it, and sooner or later he's going to be caught. Now, he's doing the right thing I reckon by coming and turning himself in," said Cooter.
Now that so many have seen his face he'll have to face the music.
"I'm happy justice is going to be served," said Jacob Cooter.
"It could happen again if the man isn't stopped. He could hurt a woman or a child and he drives and 18-wheeler," said Brenda Cooter.
Rolland is a truck driver for Bennett Distribution.
We don't know if he was on the clock when deputies say this happened, but surveillance footage caught him driving away from the gas station in an 18-wheeler. We tried to reach out to the company, but were not able to get a hold of anyone.
Initial report
Tuesday, July 1, 2014
GROVETOWN, Ga. (WRDW) -- The man accused of attacking a Vietnam veteran at a local gas station turned himself in.
Eric Rolland is facing charges in the attack caught on camera, the Columbia County Sheriff's Office said.
Jacob Cooter was buying a water at the TPS gas station on Lewiston Road after his morning run. Words were exchanged between the two men over who was next in line, a report said. Rolland then came up from behind and hit Cooter on the back of the head.
Officials say after seeing News 12's story, the alleged attacker turned himself in and the man who was hit in the head couldn't be happier.

Immigrant Policy
Friends and foes of this blog will find familiar arguments in this opinion piece that ran in today's New York Times.
Written by Dowell Myers, a professor at the University of Southern California, the essay posits that illegal immigration has peaked and is now on the wane. The border, it notes, is secure.
All of this, in his view, means that it's time to focus on assimilating the immigrants who are here. In his pithy characterization, it is the difference between immigration policy and immigrant policy.
You want discussion points? You want controversy?
Well the professor suggests we take a good chunk of the money now dedicated to drones, sensors, the Army of the Southern Border, the endless fence, etc., and apply it to education, among other things.
Makes perfect sense if you're sensible and are taking the long view on immigration, which, among other things, means that you have to see far beyond the fence. Sadly, the policy on this front is driven almost entirely by extreme myopia.
I have not written much about assimilation, which truly is the great challenge before us. The professor cites research that shows "great strides" on this front, though I am not entirely sold on the rosy assessment.
Hispanics, by far the largest immigrant group, are both concentrated, geographically-speaking, and isolated. Those two factors pose huge hurdles for assimilation. When you consider that a disproportionate number of Latino youths are in low performing, majority-minority urban schools, the task is all the harder.
That's because there are two kinds of assimilation–upward and downward. In the latter, succeeding generations fare poorly because of a host of sociological impediments, most of which we can file under the banner of urban pathology. Education is the best way to overcome this for the simply reason that schools have historically been the best assimilators of immigrants in America.
I can point to local examples that hold great promise. At San Jacinto Elementary School in Pleasant Grove, the visionary principal, Clarita Rivera, is well aware of the responsibility educators have in instructing their community, which at times goes beyond the children immediately under their care. Hispanic parents meet once a month in the school, under a program that brings in speakers and is aimed at helping these immigrants learn and cope.
Best of all–and this is all to Rivera's credit–the school watches over the pre-school children of these parents while they are in their class. The purpose is twofold. It encourages parents to participate and it exposes these very young children to school and all its promises. For these kids, it amounts to the very first, firm step toward assimilation.
I stood in the hallway and marveled as these children of immigrants, in two orderly rows, happily marched to their class. An especially precocious boy turned as he passed and greeted me with a loud "Hola!"
At that moment, at least in this one place, the future was all smiles.

Gnome OS will be released in 2014
Allan Day, a Gnome UX designer, wrote in his blog:
"The idea of GNOME OS has been around for a couple of years, and there has been a fair amount of confusion about what it means. Some people seem to have assumed that GNOME OS is an effort to replace distributions, so let me be clear: that is not the case. While the creation of a standalone GNOME OS install does feature as a part of our plans, this is primarily intended as a platform for testing and development. In actual fact, all of the improvements that we hope to make through the GNOME OS initiative will directly improve what the GNOME project is able to offer distributions. "
According to a slideshare about the future of Gnome, Gnome OS can be released in March 2014

French editor shows no remorse as Closer UK magazine boss seeks urgent talks
COULD the plug be pulled on Closer France, the celebrity gossip magazine that dared to publish topless photos of the Duchess of Cambridge today, risking the ire of the royals – who called it a "grotesque invasion of privacy" and the revulsion of the British pulic?
This morning, the British version of Closer has desperately sought to distance itself from its French namesake, issuing a statement saying the French version is editorially independent and that Closer UK would never consider doing such a thing.
But it could get a lot heavier than that if normal magazine licensing agreements are in place.
Closer UK began life as an EMAP title and is now published in Britain by the German-based Bauer Media. The French magazine is published by Mondadori France, a subsidiary of the Italian media giant Mondadori, under licence from Bauer.
Such a licence invariably includes a stipulation that the licence holder – Mondadori in this case - must not bring the title into disrepute. Breaking the agreement could invalidate the licence.
In an interview with Media Week this morning, Paul Keenan, chief executive of Bauer Media, declined to give details of the licensing agreement. But he did admit he was "very disappointed" about the publication of the topless photos by Closer France and said a brand meeting with Mondadori was being hastily organised.
"We are very disappointed, clearly, to see that the Closer brand in France have taken this editorial approach," said Keenan. "This is not something we would do in the UK."
Clearly being as diplomatic as he could, Keenan went on: "The editorial decisions are made in France by the editor-in-chief there. I am sure in the coming days, if not today, we will be talking to the management around that brand, and try and understand from them their philosophy and how they plan on taking it forward."
There would, of course, be commercial considerations in withdrawing Mondadori's licence because Bauer takes a proportion of Closer France's revenue.
But with the Leveson inquiry hanging over any questionable publishing decision of this kind, and when publication quite clearly represents a breach of William and Kate's expectations of privacy, Bauer is likely to come under pressure to be tough with Mondadori.
A lot will depend on Mondadori's reaction. So far, the French magazine's editor, Laurence Pieau, has shown no sign of remorse. "These photos are not in the least shocking," she said this morning. "They show a young woman sunbathing topless, like the millions of women you see on beaches."
As I reported earlier today when the photos first appeared, Pieau's insouciance is breathtaking, given the relatively strict privacy laws that operate in France.
As for the Italian parent company, Mondadori is chaired by Marina Berlusconi, the daughter of former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. If she's any kind of chip off the old block, then she, like Pieau, might not see what all the fuss is about.
Disqus - noscript
I think the "British pulic" is pretty revoltying, too...
What a sad statement and terrible spelling! I hope the magazine does close - simply inappropriate decision that has unnecessarily invaded a young woman's private life.
Surely she must expect photographers to try and get "The" photo. They couldn't have possibly thought that they could sneak into France for a holiday and that no photographer would see them! Sorry but when you are The future Queen of England you cover up in any circumstance.
what is sad about all this is that the lines are drawn between common decency and financial gain. public figures or any figure for that matter deserves privacy and no amount of rationalization could ever justify invading one's private domain .. as a great philosopher once said : your liberty ends where my nose begins..and regretfully a lot of people have lost this. we are in an age where good value is cast aside for sensational issues. this editor is trash .. wait till karma gets her and she and her family personally taste the bitterness of their own medicine

Value-priced theater boxes of candy have turned supermarkets into a pre-movie destination
Theater boxes of candy are occupying a sweet spot on supermarket shelves. At a time when small indulgences reign supreme, consumers are making pre-movie pit stops there for candy priced 75% below what they might pay at the cinema. Movie boxes are also starring in a stand-out role, as their value appeals to consumers making weekly shopping trips. Priced comparably to king-size candy bars, these boxes boast more candy than most single-packs. "If you look at the non-chocolate sector of candy ...

Lincoln, NE (AP) - Gov. Dave Heineman has vetoed a bill that would require Nebraska to apply for federal funding for in-home care services for the elderly.
The governor argues in his veto letter that while the bill's goal is laudable, it would shift millions of dollars in expenses onto state government.
The bill by Sen. Kate Bolz, of Lincoln, would have Nebraska spend $8.2 million to qualify for about $36.5 million in federal dollars over the next two fiscal years. Bolz says it will reduce Nebraska's long-term Medicaid expenses, because in-home care costs less than nursing home care. Bolz filed a motion Monday to override the veto.
Heineman says Nebraska's costs would increase by $6 million after September 2015, and the bill is a form of expanded Medicaid.
The bill is LB690

Anzula Mermaid is a luscious blend of sea cell and silk. This gorgeous laceweight yarn has a beautiful sheen and is dyed in gorgeous colors. With approximately 700 yards per hank, you can easily create a stunning lace project. Great for those who can't use wool!
The mill is currently unable to produce more Mermaid. Anzula is doing everything they can to resolve this issue as quickly as possible. They believe the mill may be having an issue with the seacell fiber disagreeing with their weather conditions. At this time we have no estimate on when Mermaid will become available. We will keep you up to date as we receive new information.

Beautiful colors...
Comments about Anzula Mermaid:
Beautiful colors, but not very stretchy/flexible. It's a little expensive, but I'd buy it again, and mix it with another kind of yarn. I wouldn't use it again, by itself. I doubled it, and it worked well for the sweater I made, however, the "give" was less than I would like to have had, and the shape of the finished sweater is sometimes a little "off".
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Anzula Mermaid:
I am using the shitake color and a Boye size B 2.25 hook to hand crochet a shawl. I have chosen a double crochet dropped stitch pattern (422 from The Complete book of crochet stitch designs:500 classic & original patterns / Linda P. Schapper) and the results are just stunning.The yarn has excellent stitch definition and the color has a soft sheen. The Anzula Mermaid is soft to the touch and it is easy to keep the tension of the yarn even. The fabric is working up quickly for a lace weight. The sea cell / silk combination has more loft and bounce than pure silk for a fabric that feels luxurious. I'll be back for more!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The personal journal of Chris Brummel, who is currently evaluating his pizza-in-a-cup options.
Twitter. Media darling.
Apple is definitely going to buy. Google wants their "real-time semi-news." The media won't STFU about it. We'll all be using it by this Christmas. And as Rand in Response says:
Twitter seems to be on the front page of everything but, curiously, has done nothing functionally interesting. They're just sitting there keeping the lights on.
Not everyone is just sitting there. Some are wondering, "What's next?"
That's exactly what I've been wondering. The market is being flooded with innovative features by third party clients and the only innovation that Twitter has added to the fold — search — wasn't even theirs: it was an acquisition. In fact, according to their blog they've only had five user facing updates in the past year, none of which would be deemed as "lighting the barn on fire" by a user.
So what gives? You could make the argument that their growth is because of their lack of innovation, rather than in spite of it. Keeping it simple allows users to focus explicitly on Twitter's core value instead of unnecessary bloat, and allows the owners to focus on being swooned by the big boys. Even VIPs within the company want new features but seem unwilling to build them.
I get the impression that Twitter knows that the money is in search and is putting all their eggs in that basket. And they've done a good job of it: their search implementation is pretty damn slick. But that doesn't stop me from pining like the biggest geek ever for something new out of them. I want a "groups" feature integrated into Twitter.com. I want drafts. I want threaded replies in my timeline.
But the feature I'd like the most is data interpreters. I'd love it if a link to a TwitPic is not counted against my 140 character count and is called out after my tweet. If a URL is from an approved source, strip out the link and treat the data appropriately. This would work great for video, audio, pictures, and locations. I'm dying to post a tweet from foursquare and not have half of my 140 characters taken up by the venue's address.
Twitter could keep it simple and just provide a link to the appropriate data; but with the right API calls, third party clients could take the ball and run with this type of info. Maps, audio, video, and photos could be displayed inline or expanded with a click. In fact, Tweetie already visually indicates when a tweet includes a link to a photo.
And don't worry about the redheaded stepchild in this discussion — SMS. This wouldn't (and frankly, couldn't) make that experience any worse for the 5% who still txt than it already is. Twitter could simply append the tweet with a "See More" link that routes the reader to the status's page. People who get their tweets over SMS aren't going to be clicking to view a TwitPic anyway, so a status link is just as efficient.
A feature like this would help bring the focus back to the message instead of the message being a URL. I have a hard time imagining the folks at Twitter doing anything close to standing still. The company seems to have the understanding that the premise of "140-character-messages" has a ton of milage and doesn't need new features, so why change something that's not broken? But features like this will reaffirm that in this medium, Twitter is the message. As Marshall McLuhan once said:
You should totally bake these features into Twitter.com. Now give me a massage…
So Twitter could continue to sit on their ass and they'll still be the startup darling that's perfect for many a company's portfolio. But a little attention to the users might help with this retention problem that people are suddenly talking about. …actually, it probably won't, but I'll go ahead and try to convince you otherwise…

Legia were stripped of their place despite beating Scottish champions Celtic 6-1 on aggregate because they brought on a suspended player, Bartosz Bereszynski, for the last few minutes of the second leg they won 2-0 at Murrayfield.
UEFA, European soccer's governing body, awarded Celtic a 3-0 win as punishment meaning the Scottish side advanced on away goals after the tie finished 4-4 on aggregate.
In a statement the Polish club said UEFA could have reduced the sanction against them or even "nullify it altogether" if it looked at both the objective and subjectives aspects of their case.
"We wish to inform that the abovementioned argumentation will be used by the club at every stage of the appeal process," Legia said.
Celtic have been drawn against NK Maribor of Slovenia in the Champions League playoff round on Aug. 19 or 20, while Legia are due to play in the Europa League against Aktobe of Kazakhstan.

"The Amazing Spider-Man 2" viral website The Daily Bugle has been posting a number of short stories from Marc Webb's "Amazing Spider-Man" universe -- definitely worth checking out all of them. The most recent story hints at a plot point for the upcoming sequel: the construction of an Oscorp experimental hydroelectric power plant. Considering the involvement of Electro in the film, a power plant isn't much of a surprise, but bringing water into the mix certainly makes the case for another classic Spider-Man villain to come into the mix.

Reportedly, Goyer has the support of DC Comics Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is already rumored to be attached to the project as Morpheus. However, these are only rumors and early reports, so it's possible that the project will never see the light of day -- if it exists at all.

After singing It's been a lovely cruise, I'm sorry it's ended Jimmy Buffett crashed off the stage after his final Sydney concert last night (Jan. 26) and was rushed to hospital with a head injury, according to The Daily Telegraph [1].
Shocked fans at the sell-out concert at the Hordern Pavilion were urged to leave the auditorium by Jimmy's Australian tour manager, Michael Chugg, as the 64-year-old entertainer lay on the floor in front of the first row of seating waiting for paramedics and an ambulance to arrive. He was rushed to a hospital 30 minutes after the accident.
Jimmy's sister, Lucy Buffett, told WKRG-TV in Mobile, Ala., that "it was a really scary fall. He is resting in the hospital in Sydney. He's going to be okay."
Audience member Dan Bateman told The Daily Telegraph that Jimmy fell face first off the stage. "We were in the 10th row and it looked like he did a massive face plant after his encore and pretty much didn't get up," the witness said. "We were told to leave the premises. No one really wanted to leave because everyone was anxious to know if he survived the fall. Everyone was pretty horrified."
According to a statement on Jimmy's website, the singer is improving. "As you probably already know, Jimmy had an accident while performing in Sydney last night and was taken to the hospital. The doctors say he is doing well and will be released tomorrow. More info as we get it, and thank you for all of your well-wishes!"
The show was part of Jimmy's first Australian tour in 20 years.

LOS ANGELES — It was a repeat performance for Steven Spielberg's historical biography "Lincoln," the musical epic "Les Miserables" and the quirky romantic comedy "Silver Linings Playbook" as they towered over the Golden Globe nominations Thursday morning.
Just a day earlier, the same films dominated the Screen Actors Guild nominations — and now appear well-positioned for Oscar glory.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. divides its honors between comedy and drama, an opening up of the field that led to nominations for such lighter fare as "Bernie," "Moonrise Kingdom" and "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel."
Other films that performed well were "Argo," "Django Unchained," "Life of Pi," "The Master" and "Zero Dark Thirty."
Performers who earned Golden Globe nominations Thursday included Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field and Tommy Lee Jones for "Lincoln," Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence for "Silver Linings Playbook," Hugh Jackman and Anne Hathaway for "Les Miserables" and Jessica Chastain for "Zero Dark Thirty."
The nominations wrap one of the most closely watched weeks of the awards season, which kicked off Monday with the announcement of nominations for the Critics' Choice Movie Awards, followed by the SAG Award nominations. The films and performers honored this week gain front-runner status leading up to the Academy Award nominations, which are to be announced Jan. 10.
The HFPA also honors achievements in television, doling out nominations to such series as "Homeland," "Breaking Bad," "Modern Family" and "Downton Abbey." In the TV movies and miniseries category, nominations went to "Game Change," "Hatfields & McCoys" and "Hemingway & Gellhorn."
Best actress in a TV series, drama nominees included Connie Britton, Glenn Close, Michelle Dockery, Claire Danes and Julianna Margulies.
One shocker: No honors for "Mad Men," although Jon Hamm earned a nod.
The Golden Globes are to be presented Jan. 13 live on NBC from the Beverly Hilton Hotel, with Amy Poehler and Tina Fey as hosts.

Barcelona has got to be one of my favorite European cities ever. Great food, abundant sunshine, lots of culture and color, and good-looking, stylish people… not to mention it's right on the beach.
The author of this week's guest post is one lucky lady to be living in such an amazing city. Though she was born in Germany, Gudy Herder lives in Barcelona, where she works as an interior stylist and trainer in visual merchandising for luxury retail brands. Gudy has an amazing eye for style—particularly eclectic style, which she documents on her blog Eclectic Trends.
Gudy's eclectic style—mixing various influences to make a truly personal space—really appeals to me. I find myself paying very close attention to her posts (and going through her archives!) especially now that I'm thinking about how to decorate our new place.
Gudy also takes beautiful pictures, so this week's brunch is a visual treat. It makes me want to fly to Barcelona and enjoy a delicious meal on a bustling, sun-drenched plaza… right now!

TheBlaze Features LUXVERA
| January 29, 2014
News about LUXVERA, Regent's new open online education platform, continues to spread. On Tuesday, Jan. 28, Regent Chancellor and CEO, Dr. M.G. "Pat" Robertson was a guest on TheBlaze to talk about LUXVERA and its potential impact. Read the article.
"At Regent University the motto is 'Christian leadership to change the world.' We want to train people who are grounded in biblical values and in traditional morals," Robertson said. "This can have a profound impact assuming there are leaders who come out [of LUXVERA] and then go on to take positions in the world."
Since its launch in August 2010, TheBlaze has reached a number of milestones for web traffic and reach. Currently according to analysis by Quantcast, a digital advertising company specializing in audience measurement, TheBlaze ranks as the nation's 70th most frequented website with about 16 million visitors per month.
LUXVERA classes began on Jan. 22, with the first course titled, "Who Is Jesus?" Developed by Dr. Corné J. Bekker, chair of the department of Biblical Studies and Christian Ministry at Regent, the inaugural free online class explores the life and ministry of Jesus.
Also on Jan. 22, LUXVERA began a series of "GREAT Talks" featuring notable legal, political and religious experts to address issues in politics, law, leadership and faith. More classes and talks will be added during the coming weeks and months.

All-inclusive resort vacations aren't limited to the Caribbean; try this concept — a surprising suburb of Athens.
Point is—vacationing with indulgences is within reach! If this checklist works for you, head to Watkinsville.
- Luxurious accommodations
- Abundant art
- Massage and yoga
- Gardens and gentle walking paths
- A bit of history
- Convenient dining
Sleep in Ashford Manor, an 1893 Queen Anne home that is a sumptuous inn where breakfast is a work of art.
I might make arrangements in advance to see about dinner there too, or a picnic packed to enjoy on the terraced yard.
"We're very high service oriented," says Dave Shearon. "Breakfast can be in your room, on the porches or in the gardens."
Wherever you like and whatever you like seems to be their style at the Ashford Manor.
Choose the 1840s cottage with three suites if you are an antebellum purist or the elegant main house. Expect almost 10 acres, four terraces, gracious yards and a gazebo.
What else is all-inclusive? You could arrange a massage therapist for in-room treatments.
Walk across the street—busy but with a traffic light—and choose from several eateries.
There is a yoga studio across the street too and that's an all-inclusive feature many claim in the resort world. Could splurge on a four-day yoga renewal retreat in March, at Ashford Manor.
Artland is Watkinsville's moniker, and one way to immerse yourself is in the 1827 Haygood House, now home and gallery for Jerry and Kathy Chappelle.
As if their fine pottery weren't reason enough, 125 artists have works here. Happy Valley Pottery, the community of artists a few miles south of Watkinsville, is all wrapped up in the art movement here since the 1970s. Ask for pointers to the Watkinsville mural art that is located in several locations around town. The last population census was 2,832 so you know you won't have to drive far.
The pewter is polished and the wood handsome in Watkinsville's Eagle Tavern. Could have purchased a half-pint of cordial there had I visited in 1819, according to ledgers with flowing handwriting. Instead I mused about the wonder of standing in a 1790s former stagecoach, then hotel, then tavern on land given to a Revolutionary War veteran. That classic George Washington portrait hanging in thousands of classrooms meant more in this place.
Oconee is the county name, and Athens is just 10 minutes north.

Standard Continuous Biosecurity Programme Procedures
The aim of the standard continuous biosecurity programme is firstly to prevent pathogens from establishing themselves on site and, secondly, to prevent the spread of infection within the farm site.
With this in mind the following continuous biosecurity procedures must be implemented at all times:
Care must be taken to ensure that visitors appreciate the biosecurity measures you have taken to protect your site, and protective equipment should be issued to visitors where appropriate.
Disinfectant Footdips
Place Chemours disinfectant footdips at the farm entrance, the entrance to each building and each room and by the loading bay. Ensure all personnel and visitors disinfect their footwear when entering at any of these points. Replenish every 4-5 days or when visibly contaminated.
Wheel Wash, Vehicle Sprays & Mobile Equipment
Any vehicle entering the site should pass through a disinfectant wheel wash or vehicle spray. The wheel wash should be topped-up regularly to avoid dilution or contamination. Mobile equipment brought on to the site from other units must be washed and disinfected before being allowed to enter.
Loading Bays
Loading bays must be cleaned and disinfected after each use.
Paths & Roadways
To reduce the potential spread of infection, keep paths and roadways clear of dung and refuse and regularly spray with an appropriate Chemours broad spectrum disinfectant.
Movable Equipment
Move equipment around the farm site as little as possible. Routinely dry clean, wash and disinfect after each use.
Personal Hygiene
Dirty or unwashed hands transfer infection. All visitors to the site must wash their hands before entering. All staff must wash their hands before starting work, after breaks and when changing activities. This is obviously particularly important after treating diseased pigs.
Contaminated clothing should be changed between departments - particularly important in farrowing.
Isolation Policy
Maintain isolation premises for incoming pigs, and ensure a disinfectant footdip is used when entering and leaving that building. Use different overalls and boots for dealing with these pigs and adopt a full terminal biosecurity programme between each new batch.
Water Lines & Drinkers
Continuous disinfection is important to maintain water quality during the production cycle. Drinking water can be a potent source and spread of infection and can lead to reduced performance. Header tanks and pipelines need to be regularly cleaned and disinfected with a non-tainting disinfectant.
Aerial Disinfection
Spraying a fine disinfectant mist or fog over animals can help reduce risk of cross infection during outbreaks of respiratory and other diseases. This is particularly useful in weaners, growers and finishers. It can also help reduce the risk of infection spread if other farms in the area are infected with a disease outbreak.
Chemours ™ Virkon™ S can be misted in the presence of livestock or poultry at a dilution rate of 1:200 (0.5%).
A cold fogger or mister should be used, as the noise of a thermal fogger may disturb the animal's behaviour.
Always read the Virkon™ S label carefully to ensure regulatory compliance.
Use a mechanical or plumbed in misting system or a pressure washer to deliver a very fine mist or fog of disinfectant to fill the atmosphere. Apply two to four times daily over the batch during the period of risk.
Rodent Control
Rats and mice can be responsible for the spread of a number of serious diseases, such as Swine Dysentery, Salmonella and Leptospirosis infections. Ensure that feed spillages are removed as quickly as possible and that houses are made secure from vermin. Implement an effective rodent control programme.
Contact your Chemours Animal Health Solutions representative for a customised HACCP compliant biosecurity programme, calculating product application and usage requirements specific to your individual farm's needs.

ILION, N.Y.�� Central Valley Academy controlled the football for most of Friday�s game. That didn�t stop Vernon-Verona-Sherrill from winning it.
Junior place kicker Zack Durant�s school-record 37-yard field goal with 6:48 left to play gave Vernon-Verona-Sherrill its first lead and the Red Devils held on for a 21-20 victory over the Thunder in a Class B East game at Diss Memorial Field.
Senior Mykel Farley rushed for 161 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries for Central Valley Academy (2-3, 1-3 B East), running mate Tyler Brown added 92 tough yards on 18 carries, and quarterback Matt Klosner threw a 32-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Sponburgh.
The Red Devils (4-1, 4-1 B East), however, used big plays from tailback Chris Beavo and receiver Austin Mitchell to stay close and Durant finally gave them the lead with his game-winning boot.
�I really wasn�t nervous about it,� Durant said of his school-record kick, two yards longer than the mark shared by Garrett Jones and Ben Atwood. �I knew it was good as soon as I kicked it. It felt good coming off my foot.�
Beavo rushed for 106 yards on 21 carries, including a 55-yard touchdown, Ryan Oliver also had a touchdown run, and Vernon-Verona-Sherrill quarterback Christian Tiffin was 9 of 16 passing for 194 yards, including a 73-yard bomb to Mitchell that cut Central Valley Academy�s lead to 20-18 with 4:14 left in the third period.
Central Valley Academy�s double-wing offense couldn�t do much after that. The Thunder did reach the Vernon-Verona-Sherrill 41 in the final three minutes, but Simon Breckenridge made a third-down stop for a loss of one yard and Klosner�s fourth-and-six pass fell incomplete with 2:32 remaining.
Central Valley Academy had opened the game with a 17-play, 99-yard drive � all on the ground � that lasted more than seven minutes, featured five different ball carriers and ended with Farley�s five-yard touchdown. Travis Mead�s conversion run made it 8-0.
Vernon-Verona-Sherrill responded three plays and 24 seconds later when Beavo sprinted 55 yards for a touchdown, his 12th of the season, to cut the deficit to 8-6.
Farley left the game briefly with a leg injury on the next Central Valley Academy series, but his replacement, Sponburgh, scored on a 32-yard pass from Klosner on the Thunder�s first throw of the game and the lead was 14-6.
Vernon-Verona-Sherrill converted a Thunder fumble at the Central Valley Academy 35 into a four-yard touchdown run by Oliver with 2:35 left in the first half. Tiffin was sacked on the conversion try, so Central Valley Academy still led 14-12, but the Thunder muffed the ensuing kickoff at its own 21.
The Red Devils had a first-and-goal from the 8, but a holding penalty after Tiffin had scrambled to the 3 and a sack by Mark Brough left Vernon-Verona-Sherrill with a fourth-and-goal from the 44 and Central Valley Academy took over on downs with 12.2 seconds left before halftime.
Page 2 of 2 - Other than Farley�s 38-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, the Thunder offense couldn�t get much going in the second half, however.
�When you give up a 99-yard drive, sometimes your defense goes right in the toilet,� said Gary Oliver. �But we finally stopped them � we really couldn�t afford not to. There were some (defensive) stops that we just had to have.�
The Thunder�s next game is Thursday at 7 p.m. at Oneida. The game will be televised on Time Warner Cable Sports.
