A Thai Gay Rom-Com Gets a Big-Screen Premiere
The Thai film "Love Next Door" was never meant to be a festival darling. Shot in Bangkok in three days for $6,000 and with first-time actors, the romantic comedy offers a light and raunchy look at the courtship of star-crossed gay neighbors.
In fact, the film's director, Thitipan Raksasat, never intended "Love Next Door" to be shown on the big screen at all. He released the film online in January after publicizing it on Facebook. To watch, viewers had to purchase $3 prepaid Internet credits at 7-11 stores in Thailand.
But it's this very outsider status that helps explain the movie's presence at the Hong Kong Lesbian and Gay Film Festival, where it is getting two screenings this weekend. The film exemplifies a recent Thai crop of racy, ultra low-budget gay-themed movies that have forgone the pressures of traditional theatrical release to find a home in online distribution.
"The film itself is very lighthearted and quite sweet in a way," said Gary Mak, one of the festival's co-organizers, explaining why he selected it. Most gay Asian films deal with heavier themes, such as the struggle for acceptance. But by normalizing happy gay lives onscreen, comedies like "Love Next Door" can also play a role in advancing gay Asian cinema, Mr. Mak said.
Even so, the film's inclusion in an overseas film festival remains a shock to its director. When Mr. Mak found the film online and asked to bring it to Hong Kong, Mr. Thitipan said, "I was like, 'What? Are you serious?' "

On Thursday, after learning that the film's Friday night Hong Kong premiere had sold out, Mr. Thitipan's eyes widened. "Make sure the audience is not going to kill me," he said. "Because they probably expected something, you know" … He swept his arms grandly.
It's hard for a film to get much smaller than Mr. Thitipan's self-funded effort. To keep costs down, he shot it entirely in two friends' apartments and paid his 30 cast and crew members "a token amount."
A tight shooting schedule required Mr. Thitipan to adjust on the fly. One subplot involving a fluffy white cat had to be scrapped after the animal showed little interest in following direction. And a scene meant to be played for laughs, in which the protagonist comes out as gay to his mother, turned into the film's most melodramatic moment.
"I wanted to direct that scene to be more comedic, but I couldn't. I'm so sorry," he said. "The mother couldn't act." (The nonprofessional cast included a record executive, a university lecturer and a makeup artist.)
An independent film producer by day, Mr. Thitipan wrote "Love Next Door" because he wanted to add a work with some art-house polish to the string of microbudget Thai gay films that have emerged online over the past three years. He also wanted to see if he could make some money after years of watching his films just breaking even.
"In Thailand it's very difficult for independent filmmakers to survive," he said. There are few outlets for indie theatrical release, and movies with gay characters are a tough sell if they don't involve the broad comedic exploits of transgendered kathoey.
And then there are the political pressures from Thailand's morality-minded government censors. Mr. Thitipan's producing partner, Tanwarin Sukkhapisit, had her debut directorial feature, "Insects in the Backyard," banned in 2010 for its depiction of gay sex.
The result is that Thai gay cinema — including such films as director Apichatpong Weerasethakul's "Tropical Malady" — is more visible and celebrated abroad than at home.
Online distribution could help to restore that balance, and make money besides (that is, if piracy can be kept at bay). Mr. Thitipan said he has made 100,000 Thai baht ($3,215) in profit from "Love Next Door" — not much, but a better return than any of his previous producing efforts.
The festival's Mr. Mak said the Thai model could hold lessons for Hong Kong and beyond. Gay filmmakers are struggling everywhere to find funding and a place at the multiplex, he said. "Going online might be a way out."
Meanwhile, Mr. Thitipan has written a follow-up to "Love Next Door." But in a sign of the director's already growing ambitions, he wants to delay filming until his stars become more seasoned performers.
"Now they have to do some acting workshop, I mean seriously," he said. "Because it's going be a sequel!"

McNab's hockey career spanned some 48 years, including the entire Western Hockey League history of the San Diego Gulls, whom he served as coach, GM and vice president.
Playing in the newly constructed San Diego Sports Arena, the team regularly drew crowds in the thousands, thanks to its family-friendly policies and tickets that never cost more than $5.
McNab played briefly in the NHL (1948-51) with the Detroit Red Wings, and was part of the Stanley Cup-winning team of 1950.
A back injury ended his playing career, but McNab stayed close to the game as a general manager of the Washington Capitals and the New Jersey Devils. After his Gulls tenure McNab returned as an executive with the Devils and eventually retired in 1994.
In 1998, the Canadian-born McNab was honored with the NHL's Lester Patrick Trophy for his outstanding service to hockey in the United States. The MVP trophy of the now-defunct Central Hockey League was also named for him.
McNab was always fiercely proud of his sons, Peter and David. Peter played 14 seasons in the NHL before becoming a broadcaster for the Colorado Avalanche. David is a team executive with the defending Stanley Cup champion Anaheim Ducks.

When you pray to God resignedly, as though patiently accepting the punishment of grief at the death of a loved one, and you say: "Thy will be done O Lord. The Lord giveth, and he taketh away", you have not yet known the God of love, for God giveth only. God never takes that which has not been given. What God gives to you you regive to Him for His regiving.You rejoice when God gives birth to life, yet you deeply grieve when you give rebirth to new life -- for that is what death is.

I have a FreeBSD 4.10 server with no keyboard and monitor that is
connected to an old pc serving as a console (using MSKERMIT). I would
like to had mouse support to my server but the console PC has only one
COM port and it's already used by MSKERMIT (I don't even know if
MSKERMIT can support a mouse, does it?). I was wondering, if I plug the
mouse on COM2 on the server, will it move the mouse on the console? or
only on it's own TTYs (logically it should only work on it's own TTYs)
If it doesn't can I change my configuration to make it work on the
MSKERMIT console? any advises will be more than welcome.
Thanks in advance

Descendants of France's last King, who say they inherited only six monogrammed handkerchiefs and a pair of slippers from their father, went to court yesterday to reclaim their fortune.
Jacques d'Orléans, 72, and Hélène, his sister, 79, asked Paris Civil Court to hand them ownership of stately homes, royal furniture and artworks including childhood drawings by King Louis XIV.
The estate includes the illustrious Château d'Amboise in the Loire Valley, where Leonardo da Vinci is buried and which Mr d'Orléans wants to turn into a museum on the Kings of France.

January is a month that usually we can't wait to be over.
This year, we said no more. The managers got together and decided we were going to grab the bull by the horns and turn January into a month that kicks our year off right! We came up with Summer in January as a total store sales theme.
We dressed the store up as if it were 80 degrees, with Tiki huts, colorful lamp shades, and even had the employees wear Hawaiian shirts. This gave every customer who came in something to laugh and talk about. We weren't sure what to expect, but we were floored by the results. The positive attitude of the entire staff yielded amazing results with a 200 percent increase in major unit sales. This helped drive the parts and service business, as well.

It was only three weeks ago that 49ers fans could take solace that at least they weren't the Rams.
So now St. Louis has won two in a row against above-.500 teams, and with two games left against the Arizona Cardinals, the Rams have a chance to bootstrap themselves to the playoffs in the NFC West. The revival began when St. Louis fired its obviously overmatched head coach and replaced him with an on-staff coordinator who has head-coaching experience and unshakeable confidence.
Think the Yorks notice what's going on St. Louis? Nah. There's no amusement park there.
After mocking the notion that Jones pronounced Tony Romo fit to play after catching passes from him, Johnson told a story. "His proudest possession, it's a letter on his wall," Johnson said. "He shows everybody that walks into his office. It's a letter from then-governer George W. Bush, and it's addressed to 'Coach Jerry Jones.' Now, I don't know if this says anything about Jerry Jones' ego or the president's accuracy."
Fantasy and gambling
A touchdown's worth of insights on the games that matter most to your pocketbook:
1. The 49ers were 101/2-point dogs Sunday. If you're on the 49ers' side of the line there, you'd rather the Giants had scooped that ball up for a TD, because the safety and the 29-17 final are just taunting you.
2. In pick-one-weekly-winner knockout pools, the Lions to lose are as stone-cold a lock as the Patriots to win were last year. Opponents have jumped to a combined lead of 110-0 in Detroit's six games.
3. Maximum efficiency: Detroit's Calvin Johnson need two catches for his 154 yards and a touchdown.
3. The Chiefs have allowed five RBs to rush for 100 yards and four to score multiple touchdowns.
4. St. Louis' Marc Bulger took a third-down sack that allowed Josh Brown's field-goal try to move from 48 to 52 yards.
5. Adrian Peterson could have had three TDs, but he got stuffed at the 1-yard line and Chester Taylor scored on the next play.
6. Kyle Orton's brilliant day could have been even better, but he lost a 36-yard touchdown pass when Desmond Clark fumbled at the 1-yard line.
7. Larry Johnson Cheap Yardage Bonus of the Week: Cowboys RB Marion Barber reached 100 rushing yards on a 3-yard carry with 41/2 minutes left and his team down by 27 points. He left the game immediately thereafter.

Priday walk-off single puts SHS in title game
CAPE GIRARDEAU - The SEMO Conference Baseball Tournament has only existed for three years, but the Sikeston Bulldogs seem to have taken a liking to the high profile event.
For the third straight year the Bulldogs will play for the championship, but it didn't come easy.
The top-seeded Bulldogs dodged a bullet from No. 4 seed Poplar Bluff, winning 2-1 on Jacob Priday's walk-off single Monday at Capaha Field in Cape Girardeau.
Sikeston (17-1) will play No. 2 seeded Cape Central tonight at 7:30 at Capaha.
Poplar Bluff (10-10) will square off with Jackson in the third place game at 5 p.m. Prior to that game, third-seeded Notre Dame will play Dexter in the fifth place game at 2:30.
In Monday's semifinal game with Poplar Bluff, the Bulldogs left the bats at home as they recorded a season-low four hits on freshman Mule pitcher John Patty, who went the distance.
"We just never could hit the ball hard," said Sikeston head coach Kevin Self. "He was cutting us up inside. We just couldn't get to it. I tip my hat to that kid, he threw a good ballgame."
But the four hits was just enough for Bulldog hurler Blake DeWitt, who shut down the Poplar Bluff offense as well.
He allowed one run off four hits. He struck out nine and walked three.
Sikeston was able to push across the winning run in the bottom of the seventh after Patty issued a leadoff walk to Drew Lawrence.
Lance Rhodes successfully sacrificed Lawrence to second and DeWitt was intentionally walked to set up first and second with one out, bringing the Bulldogs' leading hitter Priday to the plate.
It was a gamble that Poplar Bluff head coach Tim Harmon was willing to live with.
"It's just pick your poison," said Harmon. "You've got DeWitt and then Priday, both excellent hitters. DeWitt already hit a bomb off us once. Nothing against Priday, he's a great hitter, but we'll take our chances with him more times than we will with DeWitt. They're both great hitters -- it's just pick your poison."
Priday, after failing to make solid contact in his first three plate appearances, came through in the clutch with a hard single to left field, allowing Lawrence to score easily from second to end the game.
"I felt like they'd probably walk Blake," said Self. "But that's fine. Because I figured Jake can hit. And Jake does. If you're going to walk one, you'll get to the other."
Poplar Bluff jumped ahead in the first inning when Chris Smith doubled home Jason Duckett.
Sikeston let a golden scoring chance slip away in the bottom of the second when they had the bases loaded with nobody out.
Patty was able to dig deep and strike out the side as the Bulldogs stranded all three runners.
Patty was able to get out of several other jams when Sikeston had runners in scoring position, leaving even Harmon puzzled at his young pitcher's dominance.
"I'm not really sure," said Harmon when asked how Patty shut down the Bulldog offense. "I just thought it was time to see what he could do against an opponent such as Sikeston. He's disappointed right now but he'll learn from this. It was a great experience for him. I thought he went right after them. It just looked like he got stronger on every pitch."
Except for the final inning, Patty's lone mistake was a fastball in the middle of the plate that DeWitt launched over the centerfield fence 400-feet away in the bottom of the third inning.
The solo home run was a much-needed boost for Sikeston's punchless offense.
"That ball was hit," said Self. "There ain't no doubt. He got to the fastball up and he hit it -- flat out hit it."
Like Patty on the mound, DeWitt also had to get himself out of a jam. After walking two batters in the top of the fifth inning, DeWitt struck out the Mules' top hitter Smith to end the threat.
"(Sikeston is) not really known for their pitching, but heck, he pitched well," said Harmon of DeWitt. "It looked like he gutted up. He knew Smith was a good hitter and he made a perfect pitch. I think it was low and away, the hitter's afraid to take it and Blake hit a good spot. He's an excellent player, in my mind the best player in the conference."
The Bulldogs also had several standout defensive plays. None bigger than in the third inning. With a runner on first, Patty singled down the left field line.
Left fielder Brad Deere quickly cut the ball off and relayed to shortstop Rhodes, who turned and threw out the runner at third to end the inning.
"We told the guys before the game against Dexter, we wanted a shot at Sikeston," said Harmon. "It's just good to see us compete against a team such as Sikeston. I can't brag enough on our kids. We weren't intimidated by them. I really felt like we were gaining confidence as the game went on. Everybody on the bench was kind of feeling it over here like we really had a shot."
Patty threw 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs off four hits. He struck out four, walked four and hit four batters.
Sikeston stranded nine base runners in the game.
"Sometimes you've got to win 2-1 ballgames," said Self. "If you're going to be any good, you've got to win them at both ends. You can't expect to score 12 to 13 runs day in and day out. I tip my hat to Poplar Bluff. I think they're better than a lot of people give them credit for. They're a legitimate four seed."

Yarn Profile: Schulana Cashmere Moda
First Impressions
Simply put, Cashmere-Moda is made from a plied strand of pure cashmere that has been enclosed within a knitted tube of cashmere. The outer shell forms a very fine, open "cage" through which the inner cashmere peeks. The two components tend to be of different but complementary colors.
We normally see this construction in flashier novelty yarns made from synthetic blends, but here it's used with a pure, buttery soft cashmere.
As with many luxury yarns spun in Italy, Cashmere-Moda comes in very small skeins priced at a premium. Each 25g skein holds 73 yards, or 67 meters. If you were to indulge in a medium-sized women's pullover, you'd need 14 skeins and a budget of $280. A Clapotis in this yarn would be deliriously luxurious, but even that would require 12 skeins.
Recognizing that our yarn budgets vary, I set out to see just what could be made from a single skein. Using my handy EatSmart Kitchen Scale, I wound my skein into two balls that weighed identical amounts. My mission? A pair of fingerless mitts.
Knitting Up
My Signature stiletto-tipped circulars proved far too pointy for this yarn, repeatedly snagging one or more parts of the cage. I switched to a pair of dull-tipped Clover needles and the snagging stopped—though if I knit more than a few stitches without looking, I inevitably snagged the cage again.
I wasn't bothered by the need to pay closer attention. Cashmere-Moda is a beautiful yarn to watch as it becomes fabric. It maintains a perfect tension, willingly holding your hand before sliding onto the needles. Knitting was speedy and pleasant, producing even stitches.
In just a few short hours, and minus some time lost to frogging, I had created two simple but quite satisfying fingerless mitts. Let me clean up the pattern and I'll let you know when it's available.
Blocking / Washing
The yarn released a tiny gasp of pink into the water, but it rinsed clear. Out of the wash, the mitt just needed a little blotting and prodding back into shape before being left to dry.
Once dry, the mitt presented a relaxed and cohesive fabric with a delicate surface halo. Despite the relaxation, the stitch and row gauge remained unchanged.
When I subjected the washed mitt to a sustained amount of friction, the surface halo created by the outside cage increased—but, remarkably, the fabric itself did not pill. I fully expected the fabric to lose its shape and begin to fall apart rather quickly, but it did not.
Only after quite a bit more harsh abrasion did the surface fibers finally form faint clusters and the fabric begin to stretch. All the while, the plied strand of yarn inside the cage remained intact. For cashmere, this is remarkable.
If you derive pleasure from the physical act of knitting for countless hours at a time, price may be an issue. There's no getting around the fact that this yarn costs $20 for 73 yards. Unless you knit verrrrry slowly, countless hours of Cashmere-Moda knitting will require countless skeins of yarn. The rewards are many, but they may not be for everybody.
On the other hand, if you enjoy the wearing and admiring as much as you do the knitting, I'm glad to be able to say you can get a pair of mitts out of one skein. If you can get two skeins, the mitts can have substance to them—but even with one skein you'll get to hold something very soft and warm as you go about your day.

Computer animation, also known ascomputer generated images (CGI), Form of animated graphics that has replaced "stop-motion" animation of scale-model puppets or drawings. Efforts to lessen the labour and costs of animation have led to simplification and computerization. Computers can be used in every step of sophisticated animation—for example, to automate the movement of the rostrum camera or to supply the in-between drawings for full animation. When a three-dimensional figure is translated into computer terms (digitized), the computer can generate and display a sequence of images that seem to move or rotate the object through space. Hence computer animation can simulate highly complex motion for medical and other scientific researchers, as well as for feature films.

CLEVELAND, Ohio - Cleveland-based Accel Powersports headed to the Tucker Rocky Brand Expo in late July to debut its new Stealth SuperCoils for 2007-14 Harley Sportsters.
The Stealth line, introduced late last year, offer quicker engine starting and improved throttle response. Ignition wiring is hidden in the head of the self-contained coil pack, which eliminates the need for spark plug wires, creating a clean look.
The Stealth SuperCoils for the Sportsters are offered in flat black with either natural or polished aluminum edges. Each SuperCoil mounts directly to the spark plug and features a cross-functional cast aluminum cover that also acts as a heat sink, pulling heat away from the cylinder heads, the company noted.
The system requires no cutting or splicing of the factory wiring harness, and with Delphi connectors, installation is plug-and-play, the company said. The coil itself boasts a faster rise time and higher voltage than the traditional system, meaning the plugs receive maximum spark energy and perform even better, the company noted.
Price: $229 MSRP with a limited lifetime warranty.
"The Twin-Cam Harley Stealth SuperCoils proved to be quite popular. In response to increased demand, we've expanded our product applications and the next logical step was to offer them for Sportster owners," said Jason Ellison, business unit manager.

Hey Terry - long time since chatting with you on Facebook today - ;-)
Great stuff about Twitter. Time to work that one a bit more I think! I just converted some static web pages for my voice acting class at City College into a WordPress Blog that has a Category for my personal voiceover musings and will try to keep that interesting according to your expert advice.
And I too can chaulk up my presence (and more importantly, my contributions) on Facebook and LinkedIn to some great new clients.
Well, here's a little story fer ya. I happened to log on to FB one day and noticed that a local Casting Agent had a post stating she was looking for a Spanish speaking female for a VO gig. I posted a message back stating that she should talk with Erika Garcia whom I know via her husband Luis Garcia since he and I used to work at a studio together during VO workshops. Also, I send a message to Erika letting her know about the gig. Well, the two linked up and Erika auditioned for the gig and got it. It turned out it was for the California State Lottery which gives her state wide exposure. To make a short story longer, I have to say that Social Network can lead to a VO gig in the right circumstances. It did for Erika.Posted by:
I think at the very least it can make you some contacts. I have had conversations on Facebook with people that I would have never thought I would have had contact with. No jobs yet from it... but if anyone's offering... you know where to find me :)Posted by:
Terry I couldn't agree with you more! Well done my friend! Well done!Posted by:
Top podcast!Posted by:
GREAT ADVICE! THANX!!Posted by:
Great information... and good job.
Talk about getting exposure online while talking about getting exposure online, neat!

|Honda Achieves Record Global Auto Production for First Six Months of 2005
|TOKYO, Japan, July 28, 2005– Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today announced automobile production, Japanese domestic sales and export results for the month of June and the first six months of 2005. Honda set an all-time record during the first six months of the year with worldwide auto production of more than 1.73 million units as well as overseas production of more than 1.07 million units.
Domestic production increased 2.1% in June compared to the same month a year ago, while the total for the first six months of the year increased 7.9% from the same period a year ago. Overseas production had a major increase of 21.3% in June due mainly to increased production in the North America (up 25.3%) and Asia/Oceania (up 17.5%) regions. This is the ninth consecutive year (dating back to 1997) in which overseas production for the first half of the year increased compared to the previous year. Significantly, Honda set all-time June and 6-month records for both overseas and worldwide production. Moreover, production in Asia and North America for the first six months of 2005, also achieved all-time highs with 252,200 units and 688,131 units, respectively.
Total domestic sales for the month of June achieved a significant increase of 21.4%, while sales in the first half of the year were down slightly by 1.1%. Strong sales of the just introduced all-new Step Wagon (Step WGN) and all-new Airwave were key contributors to the increased sales in June. The Honda Life was Honda's best-selling car for the first half of 2005, with sales of 74,195 units. The Fit and Step WGN, with sales of 68,049 and 38,167 units, respectively, were Honda's second and third best-selling models. Odyssey remains strong and ranked as the fourth best-selling model with sales of 35,610 units. In addition, the all-new Airwave compact station wagon, introduced in April, ranked as the fifth best-selling model with sales of 13,502 units.
Total exports in June increased 4.4% compared to the same month a year ago, exceeding the previous year's record for the tenth consecutive month, while total exports for the first half of the year increased by 13%, exceeding the previous year's record for the fourth consecutive year. Strong sales of the Acura RL and Accord Hybrid in North America, as well as Jazz and FR-V in Europe, contributed to the overall increase in exports.

Transition: Elizabeth Taylor
Each morning at 6:20, the woman upstairs moves her wooden chair across her wooden floor just enough to make a sound loud enough to wake me. This morning was no exception in that regard. It's what I learned from CNN just afterward that is exceptional, and exceptionally numbing.
I've known of Elizabeth Taylor since I was old enough to understand that there was a mythological woman somewhere, in Hollywood, whose eyes were actually lavender. I think we all knew she wouldn't keep Michael waiting long.
For a quake of this magnitude, the obit in Variety is really the only chorus. Angels sing thee to your rest, Elizabeth Taylor.

"I think it is a great idea and will fill a need, both for my class and other, more skills-oriented online journalism courses. I like that it includes ethics but goes beyond that - the four elements of excellence on the Web go to the unique characteristics of the medium and therefore give students something new to think about and discuss, whether from the viewpoint of journalists or as media consumers. ... The book, by looking specifically at opportunities and challenges of ethical journalism ONLINE, will contribute to understanding both journalism ethics (because there are new challenges online) and the general practice of online journalism." — Kathy Olson "Reading about the practices and insights of working professionals is the book's greatest appeal. Chapters are richly detailed and address significant issues in online journalism. The writing is brisk and highly readable, and the examples are well chosen." — Steven D. Koski "The greatest benefit is Craig's focus on the interrelated nature of the multiple forms of information presentation and the need for practitioners to move beyond the traditional journalism model." — Michael Williams "Excellence in Online Journalism provides a great deal of concrete information for students. Its grounding in the tradition of journalism ethics makes it particularly valuable since the ethics become so well integrated into the practice. Students should easily learn that becoming an ethical reporter will make them a better reporter. Those teaching online journalism will do their students a good service by considering this book." — Paul A Soukup, SJ Communication Research Trends "Craig uses the philosophical approach of the Notre Dame scholar Alasdair MacIntyre as applied by the media ethicists Sandra Borden and, to a lesser extent, Edmund Lambeth. This philosophical approach allows for the consideration of developing standards in the digital era, challenging some old rules while incorporating most of them into a rede?nition." — Mark Neuzil, Ph.D. Journal of Mass Media Ethics "Institutions, such as media companies, come in for criticism when the balance of quality and pro?t get out of whack. Craig does a good job providing examples of how the professionals he interviewed attempt to keep quality in the product." — Mark Neuzil, Ph.D. Journal of Mass Media Ethics "Craig's book is appropriate in a journalism ethics course, although I would be tempted to assign it in an advanced multimedia reporting class to flesh out the ethical dimensions of a journalist's decision making while showcasing the new best practices." — Mark Neuzil, Ph.D. Journal of Mass Media Ethics 'This handbook will be welcome on any practical journalism course, especially at colleges that embrace the potential for theory-practice synergies. Its thoughtful approach via four elements of excellence, and the idea of external and internal goods, admirably situates thinking about journalism at the heart of doing it. [...] This book is remarkably up to date and should remain that way thanks to its companion website' — Rob Campbell

A Marietta business' vocational training program for high school was the topic of discussion during a local visit by Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel Monday afternoon.
Mandel toured Pioneer Pipe with company founder and chairman Dave Archer to learn more about the program and also see the economic effects of oil and gas exploration in the state.
"I'm here today to see the behind the scenes of all the jobs they created here and experience first hand how oil and gas is impacting jobs in Ohio," Mandel said.

JASMINE ROGERS The Marietta Times
Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel, right, watches with Pioneer Pipe founder and chairman Dave Archer as employee Casey Hardman works on a pipe Monday at the business' Hanna Road location.
The construction, maintenance and fabrication company employs around 800 people, and the growth of the oil and gas industry has necessitated more trained welders, said Archer.
That need directly influenced the company's formation of the School to Work program, which culls the top six students from each of three local vocational schools-The Washington County Career Center, Swiss Hills Career Center in Monroe County, and Mid-East Career and Technical Centers in Noble County-to train three hours a day at Pioneer Pipe's Westview Avenue facility.
"These are seniors in high school. So our training program is like their afternoon lab," he said.
Fact Box
Pioneer Pipe
- Employs around 800 people.
- Currently has 18 high school seniors from three local career centers training as apprentice welders in its School To Work program.
- Last year, 15 students graduated the program and all are still employed by the company.
- A fully trained journeyman pipefitter can earn around $60 an hour.

The students are also eligible to work up to five hours a day while still in the program and earn $10 an hour while doing so.
If they successfully complete the program and graduate high school, they can join Pioneer Pipe fresh out of school as a second-year apprentice and earn 60 percent of a full-fledged journeyman's hourly rate, said Archer. Journeymen make around $60 an hour, he said.
As oil and gas exploration continues to expand, ensuring Ohioans get the related jobs needs to be a priority, said Mandel.
Pioneer Pipe's School To Work program is a good model to make that happen, he added.
"What Pioneer Pipe is doing to train local men and women to fulfill these (energy-related) jobs is an example of what we'd like to see all over the state," said Mandel.
Last year, during the program's first year, 15 of the 18 students graduated the program and all 15 are still employed at Pioneer Pipe, said Archer.
"We're going to keep employing them. We've got plenty of work to do," he said.
Mandel said he plans to take Pioneer Pipe's success story back to state policy makers and use it to encourage them to support more vocational training programs.
"When state leaders are making budgetary decisions and other policy decisions, there are discussions about how much resources should be divested into career and technical training and my hope is investment in training for blue collar jobs is a priority for leaders on both sides of the aisle," said Mandel.

ASPEN - A resolution that the Aspen City Council will be asked to approve Monday aims to make city government more business friendly.
The resolution outlines recent direction the council has provided to the Community Development Department. Approval of the resolution will pave the way for future changes to the city's land-use code that will give that policy direction the force of law.
"The objective of the proposed code amendments is to make changes to the land-use code that eliminate or hinder business growth while preserving the overall feel of the code and the previous policy directions from council," a recent department memorandum to council members says.
The resolution, and subsequent code changes, assists council members with a goal they identified at a retreat last summer: to make the city more business friendly.
"As part of this goal, the (department) examined the land-use code to determine if there were any changes that could be made to erase hindrances to businesses within the code language," the memo states. "Staff identified some obvious changes that could be made."
For example, the department suggests that language in the code intended to keep "big-box stores" out of the city limits, probably written in the 1980s, be deleted. Of course, the city hasn't switched gears - it's not seeking to encourage a Walmart or Target from developing an outlet in Aspen.
"Staff believes that this language is obsolete and no longer fits the current business environment in Aspen," the memo says. "It was originally intended to exclude big-box stores from opening and to preserve local businesses. The real estate market, however, has effectively taken care of that problem on its own, and in fact there are currently several businesses that are locally owned that don't fit this section of the code."
The resolution also tweaks technical definitions for three types of businesses - "brewery," "coffee-roasting facility" and "design studio" - so as not to keep certain businesses from being compliant with city regulations.
Also, the current code contains a provision that all restaurants must have direct alley access for deliveries. The problem, according to the memo, is that restaurants are singled out for different treatment: Other businesses also might receive several deliveries per week. And new commercial developments might not provide adequate access for deliveries.
"Therefore, we are looking at modifying the code to make all new development provide for alley access for all of their tenants," the memo states.
Community Development, in cooperation with other city departments, also is looking at non-regulatory ways of making Aspen more business-friendly, including the creation of:
• A welcome package for new businesses.
• Combined and/or discounted fees for new businesses.
• A portion of the city's website specifically crafted to the needs of new small businesses.
• A business-mentoring program.
• Potential staff changes necessary to properly service city initiatives that assist businesses.

The 48-year-old youth team coach stepped up to take on reserve-team duties and help out with the first-team when Paul Dickov's backroom staff were placed on gardening leave on New Year's Eve before taking the reins on a temporary basis when the Scot resigned a fortnight ago.
Philliskirk led Latics to their first npower League One win in 10 attempts against MK Dons last weekend before overseeing Saturday's dramatic 2-2 draw with Everton in the fifth round of the FA Cup - hours after watching his youth team play out a 1-1 draw with Rochdale.
"I think he is the busiest man in football and I've got a lot of time for Tony, he's a top man," Baxter told Press Association Sport.
"He's done a fantastic job, he doesn't half do a lot of homework on the opposition and it works.
"He works us really hard in training, he tells us what's good to do and what's not good to do against the opposition.
"It showed against MK Dons, we were fantastic.
"I didn't really think we'd get a better manager than Paul Dickov but I think Tony Philliskirk is doing a great job."
Oldham can move out of the League One relegation zone with victory over Stevenage on Tuesday night, and the magnitude of that game left Baxter and co with no time to bask in their impressive performance against his former club.
He added: "It was home for me to rest up, no celebrations. We've got a massive game on Tuesday night against Stevenage and, for me, it's a bigger game than the Everton one was."

FORT BRAGG, N.C. - Eighteen Families from Fort Bragg were able to leave their grief, anger and despair behind at Timkin Tunnel and enter into a 'slice of heaven on earth' at Victory Junction Camp in Randleman, N.C. during a weekend of fun April 16 through 18.
The weekend, hosted by Walmart and organized by the Survivor Outreach Services and other Bragg agencies, gave Families of fallen Soldiers the chance to bond and socialize with other survivors through creative games and activities designed to help heal and bring 'new normal' Families together.
The year-round camp was co-founded by Pattie Petty and her husband, NASCAR driver, Kyle, in 2004 after the death of their son, Adam. The camp serves children with chronic medical conditions or serious illnesses with activities and medical facilities and staff that allow them have the same camping experience as children without their physical challenges.
The Pettys offered the camp as a weekend getaway to surviving spouses and their children after approaching Secretary of the Army Pete Geren with the idea in 2008.
"We wanted to reach out to our armed services and make a difference in their lives. We're all just children at heart, no matter what our age, or the trauma situation we have gone through. We all can benefit from some form of healing," said Pattie, who serves as chairman of the camp.
"We felt that Victory Junction had that option (to help a grieving child, parent or Family) step outside the box and put a smile back on their face."
Charlotte Watson, Fort Bragg SOS program manager, saw the transformation first-hand. "It's the first time I've seen them happy as a family. The camp really rejuvenated a lot of Families and you could see the worries lifted off their shoulders," she said.
Counselors kept Families busy with activities ranging from archery and boating to fishing, horseback riding and arts and crafts as well as an "Amazing Race" themed game called Space Mission. In this activity Families went to different areas of the complex and completed fun tasks that also include lessons in communication and teamwork.
After "crew boss," Shelby led blindfolded Katelyn Hellerman, 15, through a maze with only voice commands, Katelyn shared her feelings about how important it was to meet other children like her. She goes to Southview High School in Hope Mills, N.C. where she is the only person her age who has lost a loved one.
"It's what the kids needed ... to be with nobody but kids and to get to know each other in a place where they can all just feel normal and don't have to worry about whether anybody breaks down, somebody getting upset ... it's all normal for what we've gone through," she said.
Katelyn's mother, Michelle, remembers how far support for survivor Families has come after her husband, Staff Sgt. Brian Hellermann, assigned to Company C, 2nd Battalion, 325th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division, died in August 2003.
"We were kind of the stepping stone to get this started. In '03, '04, we didn't have this, we didn't have the (Survivor Outreach Services). We felt like we didn't have anybody to turn to," said Hellerman.
"It's been a very positive output not only for our Family, but for all of Fort Bragg."
Ellie Bauguess, 7, and her sister, Ryann, tried to feed each other pudding while blindfolded. Soon everyone had a little pudding on them. Both girls said they enjoyed their activities including kissing five fish and hitting the bulls-eye in archery.
"It's the most fun we've had in quite a while. It's a chance for all the kids and the mommies to have a good time and not worry about anything," said Wesley Bauguess, the girls' mother. Her husband, Maj. Larry Bauguess, deployed to Afghanistan with the 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, was killed in action in Pakistan in 2007.
Vanessa Cole, along with her son, Carson, 10, were able to meet many families like them for the first time. "My husband (Chief Warrant Officer 4 Brent Cole, 1st Battalion, 82nd Combat Aviation Brigade, 82nd Airborne Division,) would have been back from Afghanistan this month. It's a nice distraction, getting away from Fayetteville," she said.
Creating campers' experiences like these was Pattie Petty's objective, who said she and all the Victory Junction family, truly appreciate the sacrifices servicemembers have made for the United States. Fort Bragg also appreciates what Victory Junction has done for its Soldiers' families. Lt. Gen. Frank Helmick, XVIII Airborne Corps and Fort Bragg commanding general, his wife, Melissa, and Command Sgt. Maj. Earl L. Rice, XVIII Airborne Corps and Fort Bragg command sergeant major, made a surprise visit to the camp Saturday with a special gift for Pattie Petty - the Outstanding Civilian Service Medal.
After Helmick draped the medal over Petty's neck, he spoke to the Families in the Silver Theater.
"How wonderful this is what the Pettys are doing for us, the Army team. You all are part of the Army team and don't you forget that. Everybody here has something in common. We've lost somebody that we really love. We can share those experiences. This piece here is where we try to put that on the backburner for just a few minutes as we enjoy all the activities at Victory Junction Camp."
The Families, counselors and volunteers showed Helmick how much they had put away all the stress and sadness by performing the camp cheer "We feel soooooooo good! Uh!"

The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department Director Scott Bennett says more equipment and employees are needed for highway officials to improve their response to winter weather conditions.
Bennett told a joint legislative committee Tuesday that the department needs more money to buy additional snow plows and hire more people for snow and ice removal.
The meeting was called after motorists were stranded for hours on icy Interstates 55 and 40 in eastern Arkansas when a winter storm dumped heavy sleet on the state last week.
Bennett says the AHTD has spent about $18 million this fiscal year in clearing icy roadways after spending about $5 million last year. He told lawmakers that Missouri has more snow plows and more employees to cover a smaller area than does Arkansas.

Fernandes named Big Apple Soccer Player of the Year
Jan. 8, 2013
Stony Brook, N.Y. - Stony Brook men's soccer senior midfielder Leonardo Fernandes has been named the Big Apple Soccer Player of the Year, the New York area soccer website announced Tuesday. Fernandes was selected among a pool of candidates within the website's coverage area as well as athletes who originated from the area but are playing elsewhere.
Fernandes, who was named an All-American last month, had an outstanding 2012 season that saw him score nine goals and assist on seven others for a total of 25 points. Five of his nine goals were game-winners, and he assisted on game-winning goals three times. He was named 2012 America East Midfielder of the Year and first-team All-America East. He was also named to the America East Championship All-Tournament team for his outstanding play in helping the Seawolves reach the semifinals for the fourth consecutive season.

text: I would say it's more likely a Carolina Wren than a Mockingbird. What could have been interpreted as "Peter Peter Peter", I suppose, could probably easily have been "Teakettle Teakettle Teakettle,,,". When I was out on the Ravenna Trail a few weeks back, looking for Prothonotaries (which I found (one, a single female)), I was standing on the side of the road, near the swampy area, and in the woods to my west, I could have sworn I heard, "Teakettle teakettle teakettle...", but I said to myself, (hearing the voices of the doubters in my head), "there are no Carolina Wrens here..." (but who knows?). Sometimes in our quest to be "careful" with the identification of an unknown bird, we let the doubters (those that know more than us?) get to us and cloud our judgements/instincts. As an aside, being a scientist, not letting the doubters get in the way is what leads to scientific breakthroughs. Sometimes I wonder why birding can't be like that. We let our judgements on species ID's be limited by what we "can't possibly see" because someone who supposedly knows more than us has decided that we couldn't see, say, a Great Auk here in Minnesota. After all, we don't have Golden-winged Warblers in Dakota County, even though hybrids have been born (and seen) here (who's convoluted logic decided that? (as an aside, it's a fact for many species that the young return to the area in which they were born)). I'm not saying I've seen Golden-winged Warblers here in Dakota County, but I was wondering why I've seen a Brewster's but couldn't have "possibly" seen a Golden-winged (or so I was told). As they say, too many doubters spoil the pot. The only thing I've learned from it is to enjoy birding less and less each time it happens. They think they're teaching me; well, they are teaching me the wrong things. To me, it's more than just the high price of gas that has kept me from only birding a couple of times this year. I still think back to the first time I was at Schaar's Bluff last year and some woman asked me where I was from and when I said I had just moved here from Maryland, she told me, "I was in Maryland once and I saw a Black-whiskered Vireo...". Now, I could have told her, "You couldn't have seen that there...", but I didn't. I figured, what was the point? So, I just looked at her and said, "Really? That's nice....". Maybe the doubters should try this tactic. I've been birding almost ten years now, so I'm no longer a beginner. Yet, each time I have an ID questioned, with a "We don't have those here....", how do you think it makes me feel? Or does one even think of that? Probably not. I guess I've gotten off my point about Father Al's post. My advice to father Al is to go with what your gut tells you about a bird ID and not to fall back on the "prevailing wisdom". If you think you hear a Carolina Wren, don't be afraid to call it that. Don't be afraid to stick your neck out there and risk getting your head chopped off by those that "know more than you about birding". Birding is not supposed to be an elitist thing. Maybe it's about time we all acted like it's something everyone can do. After all, MOST beginners CAN tell the difference between a "pigeon" and a "seagull". Good birding, Richard Richard L.

Hastings, MN rwoodphd at yahoo.com ----- Original Message ---- From: Pastor Al Schirmacher <pastoral at princetonfreechurch.net> To: mou-net at moumn.org; mnbird at lists.mnbird.net Sent: Monday, June 23, 2008 9:48:12 AM Subject: [mou] Carolina Wren? Northern Mockingbird? Tufted Titmouse? Rice Lake Refuge There has been some excellent dialogue on the identity of the heard bird on the Aitkin field trip Saturday. The bird sang repeatedly for a couple of minutes, then shut down. The song could easily be transliterated as "Peter, Peter, Peter", but with an occasional two note ending as well, and much more musical than Tufted Titmice that I've historically heard in southern Wisconsin over the years (former residence). It was very loud/emphatic. About half the group joined searched visually for the bird, but we were hampered by the ponds and under/overgrowth. We did glimpse furtive movement around a cavity, but never had anything like definite views (as noted in the original email). We came to the conclusion that the closest song was a Carolina Wren after playing a CD - believe it was the second or third set of calls on Stokes (?) that was a match - one person noted a short response from the bird while playing it. Today I read an equally plausible audio ID: Northern Mockingbird. This comes from the gentleman who originally heard it while doing a BBS last week. Mockingbirds have been seen in this refuge on a number of occasions by staff (and others) - whereas Carolina Wren is a statistical anomaly there. So we need a good visual ID! The bird was singing in the (right side of road) pond with dead snags a few hundred yards or so before one completes the loop and begins heading out again. Good birding to all!

Our durable dog beds know how to take a beating—or a biting. The double-layer construction used in this line is specifically designed to withstand even the most persistent chewers, diggers, and all-around bed-shredders. Even if your pet has run through tough dog beds before, it has finally met its match in this one. This line's chew-resistance is the best you'll find anywhere, period—and we back that claim up with a 100% quality guarantee. If your dog can chew through one of our tough dog beds, we'll give you a full refund, no questions asked. We're confident that a product from this collection will win your pet's paw-print of approval. Because this isn't just a tough-as-nails pet accessory—it's the best durable dog bed around. Rugged as it is, the material used for the bed liners is also amazingly soft, offering a total sense of comfort when your hound tires out and settles down. Our durable dog beds come in a variety of dimensions, designs, and patterns, so you can find the sense of ease that your dog needs, and a colour scheme that suits your décor. If your four-legged friend tracks in four paws' worth of mud, never fear. All of our sturdy dog beds have removable covers that can be machine-washed at home, so they'll look great even after your dog does its worst. It's in a dog's nature to bring in muck, to chew, and to claw at fabric as though it's dirt. But those indelicate manners are all just part of the canine package that we love. So show your love by giving your pet a tough dog bed that it can feel free to get attached to—because these beds won't be falling apart any time soon, no matter how your hound tries.
A friend recommended Orvis to me after my Bullmastiff puppy (Nigel) had destroyed several other dog beds. There was nothing that would hold up to this dog. He had destroyed three irons, a vacuum cleaner, numerous shoes,etc...you get the idea. So, I purchased an Orvis ToughChew bed for him, and it survived. Even he couldn't get his teeth into this one! Several months later, my one year old Nigel weighs in at 120 pounds. I decided to purchase another Orvis bed to put in a different location for him. This time, I chose the Deep Dish version of the ToughChew bed. He absolutely loved it from the minute I took it out of the box. He loves to press up against people and furniture, so this was perfect as it has the sides that he can lean into. We literally have to drag him out of this Deep Dish version, as he loves it so much!"
My Havanese merrily chewed up two dog beds before I bought him this one. No matter how hard he tries, he can't chew through this one—but he loves it anyway.
We bought the bed because we liked the soft feel, the durable construction and the shape of the bed. Our Labradoodle puppy tends to be destructive to dog toys and pillows and so far (2 weeks) she has been unable to do any damage to the bed. Our dog loves the bed and enjoys being able to hide toys and treats along the inside rim.

Back in middle school Macai and I went to youth group together. I knew her as a fun loving and more quiet kind of girl. After college we didn't really stay in touch, but i started to hear more about Macai and her fiance Luke, as my brother started dating her sister. Apparently my brother had been telling them both that they should have me shoot their wedding ( thanks Connor ) and so eventually they told me they were wanting a wedding video. I reconnected with Macai a few times over the summer through family gatherings and such, & we talked about her day and both got very excited as it got closer.
Getting to shoot with Macai and Luke, I felt an awesome connection with them and their hearts. I really wanted to develop story out this one, the kind of story that Macai's dad talks about in his sermon during the ceremony.
From start to finish, these guys executed a wonderful, yet beautifully simple wedding. They had the ceremony in their home church where the pastor kids, and their pastor dads officiated. It was a really cool thing to witness, two families from the church coming together with an enormous group of supporters. The joy of the lord was in everyone there.
We had a blast of a shooting session, getting to take a few hours to explore downtown rochester ( my stomping grounds of course ) and finished our shoot at silver lake park, where the light was an absolutely perfect overcast to begin with, and then the sun peaked through pretty epically.
Thanks for a very unique and blessed day of shooting, I really enjoyed you guys and am thrilled at what God is doing and will do through your service to Him. Go in his peace, and also enjoy this video!

One of my readers was kind enough to pass on the following video, which was originally used as part of a training course for National Park Service interpreters. The video includes interviews with various interpreters on the necessity and challenges associated with introducing the cause of the war on Civil War battlefields. There are a number of perspectives presented, but all convey the importance of doing so.

Q. We're reviewing our policies on overdue fines and are looking for resources to guide our investigations. What's out there?
"Area libraries increasing security to combat rising thefts" is the headline for the April 23, 2011, article posted by the Dayton Daily News. But the question that comes to the ALA Library is "what is a 'typical' loss rate?"
Q. How many public association libraries are there in the US? Why are they association and not municipal?A. Table 5 of the "Public Libraries Survey Fiscal Year 2008", published by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) indicates that 14.9% of the 9,221 public libraries reporting in 2008 were "Nonprofit association or agency libraries," or about 1,375 libraries, nationwide.
Q. When was the first school library established?
With spring here, perennials are coming back to life ...
Q. I'm in a public library and was assisting a local community college student who asked, "How accurate should my sources of information be?" I hardly know where to start!
[We're departing from our usual format to hear from Emily Johnson, a student at the University of Michigan School of Information. Emily joined the ALA Library staff for a week, attracted by a project to bring one of our special collections under bibliographic control. Years ago, the staff in ALA's publishing department began an archive of each book or other item published by ALA. This collection, which is strictly an internal resource (and partially duplicated at the ALA Archives), is under the Library's care, but until Emil
This post isn't prompted by just one question, but rather several that came in via e-mail over the weekend. Can you suggest good books for my 8 year old grandson? Where are the older lists of Best Books for Young Adults? Is there a set of biographies of all the presidents? So, even though the ALA Library is a special library, we get our share of readers advisory (RA) questions!
What is the oldest award ALA gives? Who are all the recipients of the Margaret Mann Citation? When did publishers start sponsoring ALA awards?
Q. I'm finishing up my first year of library school and I've gotten interested in bibliotherapy. How can I learn more about this specialization?

Currently, IPL franchisees shell out around $25 million (approx Rs 138 crore) as operational costs annually. Of this, 35-45% is spent on players and support staff, which include annual fee, travel expense and lodging. Additionally, they have to pay $10 million (about Rs 55 crore) each year to BCCI as franchise fee for the next 10 years. The remaining is spent on stadium rent and marketing.
This year, the depreciating rupee has made franchises shell out 20% extra as players' fees. Income for IPL teams comes from a centralised revenue model - rights and sponsorships sold by BCCI - of which, around 80% is disseminated among the franchises. Additional funds, by winning the tournament, ticket sales, merchandising and sponsorships, are brought in by the franchises.

Taken By the Tide / There Is No Such Thing as an Atheist in a Foxhole
Bad News Records
Review by Jason Guest
Like Alex's subjection to the Ludovico treatment in Clockwork Orange, Taken By The Tide strap us down and force us to gaze upon the state of the world today and get angry about it with their EP, 'There Is No Such Thing as an Atheist in a Foxhole'. Opening with Howard Beale's infamous tirade from 1976's satire 'Network', the mood is set: very fucking pissed off.
'Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea' delivers the first of many blows, and the wounds are torn open with serious riffage and twisted razor-sharp lines that bleed through into 'The Circling'. John's throat-tearing grunts merge with the band's technical death/hardcore sound into a clenched fist that remorselessly pummels the listener into submission. 'She Looks Like A Dead Heat In A Zeppelin Race' opens with Alan Rickman's misquotation of Plutarch's 'Life of Alexander' from Die Hard. This lamenting of a distinct absence of warriors befits the world that TBTT wants us to get mad at. '…And The Sharks Took The Rest' that closes the EP is a battery from start to finish, the finishing riffs kicking the twitching and stunned casualty to within an inch of its life to savour its final breath. Run, Forrest. Run!
As it sits complacently in the waiting room of life being spoon-fed subjection that perpetuates its numb existence, blissfully ignorant of its exploitation and authority-approved indifference, TBTT are the Socratic gadfly that ceaselessly sting the dim-witted horse and goad it into admitting its responsibility for the produce of its apathy. If you're not pissed off about the absurd machinations of the ideological state apparatus that ruthlessly fix us in position and perpetually fuck us over, you will be after swallowing this.

John Eley – Vocals
Martin Clarke – Guitar
Andrew Workmen – Bass
Eric Revill – Guitar

Many leafy green types can be harvested young. Days to maturity for them shown below range from edible baby greens to mature plants. Learn more about growing Asian greens in All About Growing Asian Greens.
'Kyoto Mizuna' (30 to 50 days)
'Osaka Purple' (30 to 50 days)
'Tatsoi' (40 to 55 days)
Fragrant greens can bring a floral note to soups, stir-fries and sushi. Flowers also are edible. Try them scattered over soup.
'Round Leaf' (21 to 59 days)
'Shungiku' (21 to 45 days)
Plants mature quickly and are easier to grow than heading lettuce. Their crisp, mild-flavored leaf ribs make great slaw.
'Fun Gen' (45 days)
'Minuet' (F1) (48 days)
Best of all miniature vegetables and quite easy to grow, bok choy is exceptional if stir-fried whole, halved or chopped.
'Ching Chang' (40 days)
'Green Fortune' (F1) (48 days)
Cooking and cool weather tame plants' slightly sharp flavor. Plants produce sprouts for several weeks and can be grown through winter in Zone 7 and warmer.
'Green Lance' (F1) (45 days)
'Green Sprouting' (60 days)
'Choy Sum' (50 days)
'Hon Tsai Tai' (37 days)
