AJ Jenkins to the 49ers. Which experts and "experts" saw that one coming? Apparently, not one since he was not on any experts or "experts" mock drafts as the 49ers' pick. Or how about Aldon Smith at #7 or Chris Culliver in the 3rd round last year? Very very few that is for sure. And as a 49ers fan, I have come to like the surprises come draft day.
Granted, I have no clue if AJ Jenkins will be a good player much less a star, but Aldon, Culliver, and a handful of others have shown that the 49ers have guys that know a thing or two about football. And the fact that both of our first round picks in the last two years were surprises goes to show that Baalke and the 49ers run a tight ship, and are not swayed by the media nor the fans. They have a list of qualities and skills they want in a player and they find them through watching game tapes and conducting interviews. They don't let armchair GMs or non-padded workouts sway or deceive them away from their plan. Best of all, no one in the league seems to know what they are going to do and that is the best weapon a team can have come draft day.
Can't wait to see what day 2 has in store.

Pity can be exercised here07/19/2009
If not for the gentle lady serving us... Well, the whole place seems to be a tribute to the owner's mother except for the food. Did we come on a bad day? Consistency? The cooking oil is so bad the fried chicken tasted like a week old. The Tapsilog beef taste like old. The Tocino is not bad but the cooking oil again is questionable. Nice place to reminisce old times but a sad place to eat.

Tavoris Cloud Survives Tough Big Bear Training Camp
Undefeated IBF light heavyweight champion Tavoris "Thunder" Cloud (24-0, 19 KOs) took his last run this morning in Big Bear Lake, Calif., prior to departing for Brooklyn, N.Y., to make his fifth title defense on March 9 at Barclays Center against future Hall of Famer Bernard "The Executioner" Hopkins (52-6-2, 32 KOs). (HBO, 9:30 p.m. ET/PT)
Cloud is shown here in front of the beautiful Bear Mountain Ski Resort.
Cloud, from Tallahassee, Fla., and his new trainer Abel Sanchez faced a number of challenges at their high-altitude training camp perched in the mountains east of Los Angeles. They braved a bitterly cold January followed by heavy snowfall that Cloud noted "was beautiful."
February brought on what Cloud said "was not a good time to be a black man in Big Bear," when an intense California-wide manhunt lead police to Cloud's scenic mountain oasis in search of former Los Angeles Police Department cop Christoper Dorner--a fugitive with a $1 million bounty on his head after being suspected of going on a killing spree--whose truck was found in the snow-covered woods near Big Bear Lake.
Police got into a gunfight with the outlaw on Glass Road in the Big Bear area before subsequently burning a cabin where he had holed up on Feb. 12.
No doubting Hopkins is HOF material but I hate seeing him fight, well hold fall over feign injury. Hope Cloud finishes his career once and for allComment by ADP02 on 03-02-2013
Style wise, Hopkins is all wrong for Cloud ... fortunately for Cloud, Hopkins is 48.Comment by Mr. Philadel on 03-02-2013

The Harvest Moon is generally considered to be the full moon closest to the Autumn Equinox; the day in the fall when night and day are most equal in length. In folklore, the Harvest Moon was a symbol of fruitfulness allowing farmhands light to work on harvesting through the night or having a long roll in the hay, if one believes in the fertility enhancing properties of such events.
While I cannot speak directly to the latter, I can delineate some compliance related news on the former. As many of you might remember, I was privileged to have been part of the This Week in FCPA podcasts with Howard Sklar. Howard went off to the wide world of corporate compliance. This week I started a new compliance related podcasts series, The FCPA Compliance and Ethics Report, which can be found here. In this podcast series I will bring you the latest compliance, Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), Bribery Act or any news related to other laws or topics regarding anti-corruption and anti-bribery. I will also be interviewing many of the leading compliance practitioners, compliance and ethics thought leaders, compliance product and service providers and others who impact the growing field of anti-corruption and anti-compliance. So if you are interested in being interviewed, give me a shout.
My first two podcasts are up. In Episode 1, I review the compliance related news of the summer, beginning with the GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK) matter and up through the revelations that JPMorgan Chase is being investigated for possible FCPA violations in regards to its hiring of the sons and daughters of Chinese government officials. In Episode 2, I interview Matt Ellis, founder of FCPAméricas blog. Matt discusses the new Brazilian anti-corruption law and relates how it may play out for US and other western companies in the upcoming rollout to the world's grandest sporting events in the next three years, the World Cup in 2014 and the Summer Olympics in 2016.
Speaking of Matt Ellis, he has recently begun a site which is long overdue for the Spanish and Portuguese speaking compliance practitioner. Matt has added two well-known compliance practitioners as contributors to this new site. They are Carlos Ayres who specializes in anti-corruption and compliance issues, with a particular focus on Brazil and other regions of Latin America. He is an attorney with the law firm Trench, Rossi e Watanabe Advogados and co-chair of the Anti-Corruption and Compliance Committee of IBRADEMP (The Brazilian Institute of Business Law) in São Paulo. The second is Matthew Fowler, a seasoned FCPA attorney with over 12 years of experience as both outside counsel in leading law firms and internal counsel at a major defense company. He currently covers anti-corruption issues for the Inter-American Development Bank in Washington, D.C.
Beginning this month, the FCPAméricas Blog will regularly offer its new posts in Spanish and Portuguese. Matt's translation partner for this new fabulous resource is the international translation company Merrill Brink. To get the ball rolling Matt has gone back and translated some of the most popular posts from his archives. So go over and check out the site. If your company has operations in Portuguese or Spanish speaking companies you might have your compliance team in those venues subscribe to this new resource.
If you are interested in how to manage your third parties in the FCPA context, please listen in on a webinar in which I am participating next week, entitled "Engaging With Confidence: Mitigating the Risk of Third-Party Relationships". It is sponsored by Compliance Week and Datacert. This webinar will explore best practices for mitigating third-party risk, informed by latest government guidance and enforcement actions. Attendees will learn how technology can help prioritize and target due diligence efforts and facilitate ongoing monitoring to support a sustained state of compliance. The webinar is complimentary and will be held next Tuesday, September 10 at 1 PM CDT. Information and registration is available by clicking here.
Lastly, I am extremely pleased to announce that my most recent book, Best Practices Under the FCPA and Bribery Act, is now available on Kindle. The price is only $9.99 and is available at amazon.com. If you have not picked up the hard copy version, this is your chance for the electronic version. You can purchase the book by clicking here.
And last, but not least, pro-football is back…proving once again…there is a God.

My PC 5K Run
This is a fundraiser for the benefit of Grace Gate Inc. This event is the best of both worlds. For the more serious competitor, this event is timed. You will know how well you did for time against the pack. However, this is also a "Fun Run". Run, walk, stroll... what ever your pleasure. Most importantly, have fun and "do good" through your registration and donations to Grace Gate Inc.
Get others to sponsor you as you raise funds for Grace Gate Inc. Use the sponsor form to record their donation and sponsorship. The top three sponsored runners will be recognized.
Do I have to run? There are plenty of other great 5ks out there to test speed and performance. While we offer a timed event, this is also about having fun. You can run, walk, stroll, or cartwheel it if you wish!
What to Wear? - A white t-shirt is recommended. There is no "race" t-shirt. As color powder can have an effect, we recommend clothing that can be easily washed.
Will the colors ruin my clothes or shoes? - The "color" mostly washes out after the event. However as with anything dirty, the sooner the gear gets washed the better. Dust off all excess powder before washing with water. Wash your color run gear separately and use cold water. Oxiclean, or a similar product, will work wonders.
Can I save the colors on my shirt? - If you would like to preserve the color in your running shirt, we suggest spraying it with vinegar and ironing it when you get home. This is the most likely way the shirt will retain its coloring.
How does the color affect the inside of cars? You went all out, you're covered in color and if you don't take precautions, your car will be too. Bring some towels and garbage bags for the insides of your car to cover the seats before you sit down. It's like driving home from the swimming pool in your swimsuit:)
You'll want your memories of this color run to stay with you forever. But if you want the color to wash out of your hair and skin ASAP, here are a few tips...
You just ran the craziest 5k of your life! Congratulations. You deserve a nap. But not quite yet. Take a few minutes to clean up or color might end up all over your house!
Every so often you may look down a see a little trace of pink on your shoe and smile. It'll remind you that we love you. Eventually, it'll all be gone.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Over a month ago, I had contacted ZONG and requested that they close my account & pay me whatever I had made. They told me the amount I made, and said they would send me a payment asap.
Over a month later, today... still nothing. I've emailed them a million times, it all gets redirected to the same "Kamara, Angelique" and she/he does not help at all. She just says clients get paid once a month, and that it's harder to pay me because they have to add up everything I made like 2 years ago.
Isn't this suppose to be a PayPal service? Why is it so hard to send me $100 dollars and close my account, it's been over a month. I am broke, I could really use this $100 dollars. [continued below]....
BTW, I'm pretty sure I made well over $100. I've sold lots of credits to players over a 6 month period, some used credit cards so I know the fees are not that high. For certain carriers "not zong" and I understand, they do take 50-70% off each transaction.
Bottom line is I'm not happy, not because of the amount I made, but because of how long it takes to send me my money. I know there's a 75 day grace for the phone companies to pay ZONG so ZONG can pay us, but it's been over a year.
I want my account closed, and I want the money I made now, not later, not a month later, not months later. Now. A handicap monkey could process this information faster.

Why am I back again, erg!
AUTHOR: Hatian - (Canada)
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, December 04, 2012POSTED: Tuesday, December 04, 2012
After successfully getting my account closed months ago, I still managed to receive (maintenance) e-mails from Zong, 3-5 times a day. Like seriously, I have more ZONG Maintenance e-mails then Viagra spam in my inbox.
I have contacted Zong last month no reply. I contacted them again, still nothing and today when I tried there contact form I get a "Maintenance Break. Your timing is impeccable! We're temporarily down for maintenance. Please check back soon while we make updates to the site."
Really!? Why am I still dealing with this company, all I wanted was a simple company to handle mobile payments. I don't want to use their services anymore, why are you still spamming my inbox with emails me everyday. Erg!!!
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Shigeru Miyamoto "I have never said that video games are an art"
Panda is right, the subject is a subjective minefield.
Im British!
GT- x STE 90 x, PSN ID- X-STE-90-X NNID- XSTE90X- currently playing Forza Horizon (360) Xcom (360) Gravity Rush (Vita) Motorstorm Apocalypse (PS3)
I would actually say that most Nintendo first-party games are not artistic at all. They're solid, gameplay-focused games, and there's nothing wrong with that. There are plenty of artistic developers out there anyways...in fact, I would say the vast majority of console game developers at least attempt to make multiple statements and invoke various emotions with their games.
Coolest guy/gal on the planet: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/user.php?=2426382
First off, this story is three years old. It's difficult to see why it's coming up again.
Secondly, if Miyamoto doesn't think games are art, then he probably should have turned down his membership of the French Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
Kiro_nami posted...
It's just him being humble.
This. His reply is very Japanese.
Video game design is as much an art as any other design field, which to me includes directing in a very loose sense, not just graphic design, industrial design etc. Design aims towards a commercial product, but within that purpose one can apply standards and sensibilities that can potentially make one product rise far beyond another in terms of entertainment, function, aesthetics. I'm sure he knows this, and it wouldn't surprise me if in the past he's made statements similar to what he is now denying, but he is denying it within context of receiving an artistic award. Very Japanese to do so.

P_A_N_D_A_M_A_N posted...Videogames as an artform is a shaky subject. While it is undeniable that many artistic qualities go into making a game, the argument that games as a whole being art is debatable and I understand the reasonings behind both arguments. While I tend to think of it as an art, I see it worrisome that developers refuse to call their products art unless it's actually convenient to them. While Miyamoto hasn't ever said games are art, stating that it's a product made to entertain the masses, I've seen many cases where devs have claimed their creations are art only to retract those statements when questioned about its contents. To paraphrase a poster from another site, "until developers are willing to defend their 'art' games will not be universally accepted as an art form."
One does not simply state a reasonable, negative opinion on GameFAQS without being called a troll.

Have you seen what passes for art these days? Who would want games to be in that category?
bleedingelite 4 years ago#47
Art is an indefinable quality that varies on an individual basis. There are several things to consider when asking yourself "are videogames art?"
1. Who ****ing cares?
2. ...
Well, there's really only that one thing. Thanks, good night.

That's a shame. Not that I resist the concept of games as products first really. Just that it's apparent he doesn't value his vision and expression of it as art. Art can be as commercial as anything else. The commercial nature of a given piece can even lend to the message it gives overall. A product like Zelda that shares his fond memories of exploring his world as a youth with millions is his art. For someone with such a clear artistic voice it's a shame that he's apparently unaware of it. Then again, keeping people focused on a product and stifling their inner Unique Butterfly feels like a sound leadership tactic, ensuring his vision shines through their work.
You don't seem to understand art. Art isn't supposed to be commercial. Art is all about expression. And it usually doesn't even become valuable until after the artist dies. Games are all about entertainment. Yeah, the end result may be beautiful, but the starting point is completely different.

Aren't movies and books products first and foremost as well though. You do get exceptions, but over all they are. I perceive videogames as art, because an enormous amount of creativity goes in to them. Same with movies and books.
Art doesn't have to be creative though. Like I said, it's about expression. One's personal vision of certain subjects, areas/buildings, people and feelings/emotions. That's very different from creating a product that is made to sell to as many people as possible.

If Heavy Rain or Call of Duty are any indication, it's not required. But then again, it's not required for any form of art. Nicki Minaj, that painting of weed at the dollar store, Twilight, that really crappy play you saw last night... Art isn't something that requires talent.

BHB Information
Bermuda Hospitals Board (BHB) is happy to announce the successful completion of its first culinary internship by three Bermuda College students; Jai-Onni Outerbridge, Farah Ming and Chioma Lawrence.
The program began this year after BHB Hotel Services Manager Jerome Swainson and Food Services Manager Lynn Fubler learned that as part of their training, Bermuda College culinary students were placed in various hotel and restaurants on-island.
Liaising with BHBs Human Resources Department and the Bermuda College, an internship program was quickly established. Students had to apply for placement and this year three were selected.
A rotational schedule was designed and implemented to give the students maximum exposure to patient and staff meal preparation and service, said Mr Swainson. I am very pleased to have been a part of the development of this program and look forward to great things to come in the future. The students represented themselves very well and we look forward our continued relationship producing a pool of trained Bermudian chefs in the culinary arts.
We consider it a privilege to have assisted in the development of our future local chefs Jai-Onni, Farah and Chioma, said BHB Assistant Food Services Manager Carol Gift. They have challenged us to stretch our imagination just a little bit more, in ways that we normally would not have considered, she added.
Its gratifying to see Bermudians cultivating their interest in this field, said King Edward VII Memorial Hospital Chief Operating Officer Scott Pearman. This will certainly strengthen our ability to provide greater meal selection choice in the future and could well position us such that people look forward to hospital stays because of the great meals they get.
I am pleased on behalf of the Bermuda Hospitals Board to announce that we have awarded Jai-Onni, Farah and Chioma certificates of completion for the 12-week internship programme.

Producer: Digital Underground
Label: Tommy Boy
Digital Underground's 1990 debut album Sex Packets is a tour de force of lighthearted lyricism powered by the slick funk of Shock G and friends. Its third single, "Freaks of the Industry," is a raunchy ode to sex with groupies that tells you more than ever wanted to know, probably, about what it's like to go backstage at a Digital Underground concert. The most memorable moment is the multiple-choice pop quiz in the second verse wherein Shock G asks what you would do if the sex you're having in the room next to where you're friends are hanging out gets too loud. (Answer: sound-proof the room by sticking a rolled-up a towel underneath the door.)

Have you ever heard of searching? Its really very easy. xbins is an Irc channel that allows access to their ftp that has a cache of xbox goodies. You will have to figure out how to use xbins yourself.. We all had to learn ourselves, so can you. There's a very nice tut on the X-S homepage in the tutorials section.

I'm not sure I completely understand your question. IRC is internet relay chat, not an ftp client.. Use flashfxp. As for trainers go to http://trainers.evolutionx.info/ or http://forums.maxconsole.net Some of the Xored trainers are on xbins. Only the ones that are in xbe format though. If you dont know how to get on xbins or dont want to they have released etm's of their newest trainers on the maxconsole forums.

Call One called a few days later and offered me a phone deal. They said they already had my account number,also. I agreed to the 3.95 charge.
In a couple days I decided not to go through with them and called the 800 number to cancel.
When I received an overdraft notice from my bank I investigated and found out Premier Movie Pass had taken $149.00 and Calnet had taken 119.00 from my account.
I filed an affidavit of "Unauthorized Consumer Draft on each Company" through my bank. I did not know at the time it was the same place.
I started calling for my refund and was told to wait 10 to 14 days and it would be refunded. I asked to speak to the manager and was not allowed.
I reported the overdraft charges by the bank to the Bureau of Banking and was re-imbursed the bank charges. The bank contacted Call One/Premier Movie Pass and was told I had cancelled the service on February 8th. They continued to maintain that they will refund my charges and that they were unaware that I had not received my refund.
I am also waiting for my money. The conversation they had with my bank was prior to November 28,2005.

Release Date:
January 12, 2010
Rating: pg-13 - Sexual Situations, Adult Situations, Profanity
Kevin Spacey serves as both director and star for this biopic based on the life and career of legendary entertainer Bobby Darin, which moves back and forth between his childhood and adult selves to tell the tale of his remarkable life. Born Bobby Cassotto and raised in the Bronx, young Bobby (played as a child by William Ullrich) was raised by his mother, Polly (Brenda Blethyn), his brother-in-law, Charlie (Bob Hoskins), and his sister, Nina (Caroline Aaron). At the age of 15, Bobby contracted a severe case of rheumatic fever, which was expected to take his life; while it left him with a weak heart, Bobby beat the odds and survived. Buoyed by a love of music passed along by his mother, Bobby learned to play several instruments and began singing as he recovered. Displaying a confidence and drive which stopped just short of arrogance, he adopted the stage name Bobby Darin and set his sights on becoming a star. After a string of hits as a rock & roll singer, Darin (played as an adult by Kevin Spacey) takes another gamble, and with the help of manager Steve Blauner (John Goodman) he reinvents himself as a supper-club vocalist in the manner of Frank Sinatra. All the more remarkably, he succeeds, and his swinging version of &"Mack the Knife" tops the charts. Now a major singing star, Darin decides to take up acting; on the set of his first movie, he woos his female co-star Sandra Dee (Kate Bosworth), and despite the stern objections of her mother (Greta Scacchi), Bobby and Sandra wed. But after a string of successful movies for Dee and hit records and an Oscar nomination for Darin, the shifting tastes of the 1960s throw their careers off-track. Bobby cautiously embraces the new sounds of the day, but his old fans don't want to hear him cover Bob Dylan or the Rolling Stones, while the younger audience isn't interested in his new sound, leaving Darin in a difficult place to make his way back to stardom. Kevin Spacey did his own singing for Beyond the Sea, recreating Bobby Darin's vocal style with uncanny accuracy. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Q: My rugby club has quite a bit of carpark space. During the week, people who work nearby seem to be using it, leaving their cars there all day. Is there any way we can charge them for it? - Jason, Whangarei
A: Solicitor Vanassa McGoldrick says you probably can. If you lease the land, you'll need to check you have the right to sub-lease.
If that is all in order, you can put up a sign advising that people who park there will be towed, and who does the towing.
"They could also erect a sign offering carparks for rent, or advertise car parks for rent, and then they would need a contract between them and the person renting that stipulates the conditions of them renting - what they will pay, how much notice each has to give the other if either want to terminate the arrangement, all those kinds of things," says McGoldrick.
She says you'll still need towing signs and you'll need to be proactive about keeping the parks clear for people who pay for them.
"They will also have to do a bit of investigation to find out what others are paying in the area for carparks so they ensure they get the right return.
"Depending how many carparks are involved, they need to consider the costs of all this versus the return from the carparks."

Wot?! No Comments On Haribo?
I think he will play both again against MC. We started of 442 but changed as the game went on with Ade roaming from MF to out wide to link play and the players seemed more connected with Bale and Lennon not having to drop to deep to help out defensively, as often as usual, so the tempo was that much more higher. Seeing Bale stick mainly out wide and flying is a sight to behold, and his crosses deserved more, so I would like to see Daffy and Ade to attack the six yard box more and get on the end of them more often than they do. If Sandro's fit, then I think both will start, but if not he might go for Dempsey as he might be seen as more solid from MF. At the back, I would be happy to keep Vertongen and Daws at CB and keep Knaughton at LB, who apart from his back pass looked ok.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Formations are a funny thing,
In my experience there is very little difference in playing a 4-2-3-1 or a 4-5-1 or sometimes a 4-4-2. The instructions that the players are given and their natural tendencies often override a set formations as players react to what is happening around them, maybe that's just the teams and players I have played for and with.
I was really happy to see Ade and Defoe start together and how well they complimented each other, I'm sure I saw Defoe passing the ball, maybe I'm mistaken, but the interplay between Bale, Ade, Defoe and Lennon was wonderful. And despite being much maligned (including by yours truly) Hudds pass to set up Defoe's final goal was lovely, in fact the build up play for that goal was beautiful to watch.
Obviously Defoe played really well and took his goals superbly, return of the flying Weshman! how many times could Maribors rightback have been booked? I counted at least 5 fouls on Bale alone. Ade looked a real handful, right on cue, when you consider we have the Citeh and the Goons, neither of whom are in great form! I bet he's raring to go!
I was particularly impressed with Carroll, he looks like he will become a really good player, obviously I'm biased, but he looked calm and controlled at all times and was linking the play so well! really encouraging!
I think with the injuries we have to our CM options then Ade and Defoe should and will start. None of our fit CM options are in the same form or IMO of the same quality as Daffy or Ade.
For Citeh I'd start:
Walker Dawson Caulker/Gallas Naughton
Lennon Sandro Vertonghen Bale
Ade Defoe
IMO this way we utilise the best 11 player we have at our disposal and we we don't ask Hudds to try and perform any kind of defensive duties against some of the best attackers/creative players in the league.
No Sandro and I'd start Vertonghen and Hudds in CM, maybe with Ade on the pitch Hudds pasing would be more effective and Defoe can play off Ade.
I thought his pre match comments showed a real reluctance to try 4 - 4 - 2 but that he had been talked into trying it. This would indicate to me that he now has to either admit we play better with that formation or he sticks to his guns and reverts back to 4-5-1 at the weekend. It will be a shame if he does that as it will show that his ego is bigger than his abilty to see what is in front of his face.
By playing two up front he made the whole back 4 work hard to try and hold us back whilst with little Defoe on his own it allows at least one defender to support the attacking midfielders thus putting our MF and defence under more pressure.
Bale and Lennon played well and I was particular glad to see how well Lennon tracked back - a side of his game that he has been criticised for previously.
I thought Carroll was a bit lightweight but once again I saw nothing at all from Hudd that made me change my mind about him. I lost count of the number of long passes that got cut out and I also lost count of the number of times he was lumbering around inbetween Dawson and Vertoghen passing the ball 5 yards sideways or backwards. The only thing he did right all night was the one final pass to release Bale for the third goal. Not exactly a great return for a whole games play.
Dawson hit several very long crossed field passes which against a PL side would have got cut out but against this poor side they found their man. Hudd was not quite as successful, and thats supposed to be his strong point, and even Vertoghen hit a couple that succeeded.
Naughton is a good player but what happened showed why you shouldn't play a right footed player at left back.
BUT, lets get this in perspective - Maribor were bloody poor really. The silly goal got their hopes and chins up whilst at the same time deflated our passion and made us nervous but still, we should have beaten them 5 or 6 nil IMO.
Still, the good news is we won and we played 4-4-2 which clearly suits us better, the team like it, the fans prefer it and it worked. My only hope now is that AVB is man enough to admit his tactics and formation is not right for us. Not holding my breath on that one.

Write for Us!
We are always looking for new articles and new authors. If you feel that a subject is important or needs better explanation then we probably do as well. Writing on something you feel passionate about is always easier than writing about something that does not interest you.
Tutorials, reviews, overviews as well as case studies and news are always needed. If you are a member of a user group then why not tell us about it.
We can handle any type of submission but prefer e-mail. Screenshots are always welcome. Try to give us some help by mentioning the subject in the header of the e-mail or letter.
General Guidance
Articles are usually about 800 words per page although code listings and images will reduce this. If possible try to write full pages.
As we sell in many countries and translate into other languages try not to write in slang or use too many idioms. Try to plan ahead. By the time the magazine reaches your desk it has gone through many stages from production, printing and distribution. This means if you say something will happen next week in an article, in the magazine on your desk that date has already passed.

Mystery on the VineyardBy Thomas DresserHistory Press, 2008156 pages, $19.99Life was typically idyllic in Oak Bluffs during the pre-war months leading up to our country's commitment to World War II. Houses were left unlocked (if the owners even knew where their keys were) and most automobiles had keys routinely dangling from their ignitions.Theft was not much of a consideration; murder even more unthinkable. And yet, when the morning sun spread over the northern tip of Martha's Vineyard on June 30, 1940, it would also illuminate the jolting reality that no place on earth was immune to the deadly vagaries of mankind.That morning, an elderly widow named Clara Smith was found dead in her room.She had been beaten, raped and eventually strangled by an intruder. Her room was on the second floor of a dormitory called Sumner Hall, part of the complex that made up the campus of the Rice School, a multi-functional institute that focused on theater (the Rice Playhouse) and peripheral dramatic elements such as the Rice School of the Spoken Word. Clara Smith was enrolled in the diction class for two weeks.Thomas Dresser is no stranger to the tales of the Vineyard and has published five other books on various topics endemic to New England. He tackled the Rice School murder with an investigative reporter's zeal and that passion lights up the pages of this slim but intense study of "politics, passion, and scandal on East Chop."As with virtually all murder cases, but especially those in small communities where everyone knows everyone else's business, the local police force is under rabid scrutiny to produce a suspect. And in East Chop, Ralph Huntingdon Rice, an eccentric, if not downright odd member of the Rice clan, was a likely candidate. Based on evidence that would wriggle the eyebrows of any modern investigator, Rice was formally charged with the murder of Clara Smith.We'll leave the plot summation there except to say that Mystery on the Vineyard is as replete with bona fide characters as any piece of contemporary fiction. It is to Dresser's credit that he fleshes out these people and makes them so believable without rendering them over the top. The author's fieldwork and research are stamped on every page as he brings the summer of 1940 back to life.I do have one minor quibble with Dresser's approach of engaging us into that specific time period. He frequently interrupts his narrative to give us a kind of touchstone into the era. For instance, while writing about the trial, he tells us that the "Red Sox slipped from first place to third. . ." and "Across the Atlantic, Hitler sent his Luftwaffe over the English Channel in the first wave of bombing in the Battle of Britain." In judicious doses, this is a wonderful plot device that helps root the reader firmly in the time period. But it feels as though Dresser hits that button a bit too much and, on few occasions, this brings the momentum of the narrative to a halt. He has such a great story to tell, and tells it well. There doesn't seem to be a great need to continually remind us which point of the 20th century we're immersed in.What Dresser does do, and he does it brilliantly, is give us the sense of just how archaic police procedure was prior to the discovery of DNA. Ralph Huntingdon Rice was accused of Clara Smith's murder largely based on a strange glance he gave a woman and the fact that he really was a bit of an oddball. With modern DNA techniques, Rice never would have been charged and it is to Dresser's credit that he doesn't hammer us over the head with this fact, but shows us, through the court proceedings, how far criminal investigation has come.Ultimately Thomas Dresser's book works in many ways, some more subtle than others. It holds its own if you are simply a fan of a good mystery, and it points out the tremendous advances police work has made in the laboratory. And thanks to the Vineyard Gazette, which Dresser quotes frequently, we also come to understand just how violated a community can feel in the midst of tragedy. This is an entertaining and important book and Dresser writes with the fervor of a man who is part of that violated community. And though it was almost 70 years ago, the harshness of that violation still lingers.Michael Lee is a member of the National Book Critics Circle.

Dan will call his employees and tell them to punch HIM in. Dont know if other employees will do it..Mine wont. He prints a two week schedule and then changes it daily to suit his own needs. He will change the schedule and call people to tell them they are late..He schedules people to work bell to bell and doesnt even show up to help. He wont open or close..IfHe wants a day or a weekend off..He just shoves people in the schedule to HIS liking. He understaffs the store consistently and generally uses his title to intimidate his employees. (Who wants to lose thier job in this economy??)
He is rude to customers and walks away and lets his employees handle problems. Usually problems he has created. He is young and very obviously the job title has gone directly to his little pea brain. He takes away peoples scheduled vacations..He basically comes and goes as he pleases and daily threatens people with thier jobs if they dont want to play his game.
I also have check stubs showing that Auto Zone has underpaid my relative and the paperless way they do thier paychecks is a ripoff to the general population of workers who are too scared to question what is happening..I think if anyone ever delved into thier payroll system and looked at a few thousand paystubs they would be appalled at what they see.. Im keeping the one I have that shows GROSS mistakes. I have a feeling its going to come in handy one of these days. I believe if someone cares enough to delve into some of the things happening..Maybe at that particular stoe..or maybe all of them..I dont know..They will be very surprised at what they find.
Totally distraught

Next, on my bank statement, it showed all that prior weeks purchases which were very small (4 small purchases totalling $48.24) and the ATM withdrawl for that Monday for $200. They charged me $33.00 per transaction five times for a total of $165.00.
The only transaction which overdrew my account was the $200 after 5:00 pm on that day. The other transactions were made on prior days when my account was positive.
When I called them and asked them to refund my money, the supervisor refused saying these were the rules!
This is not the first time I've had to call them on jerking money away from me for no good reason. That's it. I will make them my pet project. Class action law suit is not good enough. I want them to go down!

Hi, I am Amie Sue and I have a fetish… for making granola. It's true, once I started making granola recipes, I just couldn't stop! They are so easy to make and you can tailor them to your ever present cravings! It is dangerous for me to even walk in to the kitchen.
I may be walking straight to the faucet to get a drink of water and boom! there sits an apple… "ooh I can make some granola using that!"….boom! there sits a pumpkin… "ooh I can make some granola using that!" there sits some dried fruit… "ooh I can make some granola using that!" Oy! Someone stop me or find an army for me to feed. haha
Before, you lose your attention, I want to talk about ingredients real quick. I added protein powder to this recipe to bump up the nutrition. It is optional. Feel free to use any dried fruit that strikes your fancy, if it is large, dice into bite-sized pieces.
If you can't eat oats, you can use the same measurement of sprouted buckwheat. If you wish to make this nut-free, replace the pecans with an assortment of seeds. With any substitutions, always think of what the end flavor will be. I hope this gives you some inspiration. Enjoy!
Don't forget to subscribe to get regular email updates, from my kitchen to yours. Blessings, amie sue

Wet Ingredients:
One of the greatest joys when creating raw food recipes is experimenting with different ingredients… a practice that I highly encourage. Daily I get questions regarding substitutions. Of course we all might have different dietary needs and tastes which could necessitate altering a recipe. I love to share with you what I create for myself, my husband, friends and family. I spend a lot of time selecting the right ingredients with a particular goal in mind, looking to build a certain flavor and texture.
So as you experiment with substitutions, remember they are what they sound like, they are substitutes for the preferred item. Generally they are not going to behave, taste, or have the same texture as the suggested ingredient. Some may work, and others may not and I can't promise what the results will be unless I've tried them myself. So have fun, don't be afraid, and remember, substituting is how I discovered many of my unique dishes.
What a beautiful combination of flavors!
I've been wondering what to do with the pumpkin sitting in the kitchen and I just got some raw oats last week :)
Thanks for your wonderful recipes. Your site is very inspiring.
Hi Amie
Please can you suggest a substitute for the gluten free oats.
Also do you use grind the final mixture in the food processor, or leave the pecans whole?
Thank you for your recipes!
Hi Amie-Sue
Do the oats require to be only soaked for this recipe or also dehydrated.
If just soaked, then overnight?

Google Trail View unveils virtual Grand Canyon hike
PHOENIX — Google Maps has taken Street View out of the city and veered into the Grand Canyon, adding 9,500 interactive panoramas of the landmark's winding trails and surrounding roads.
Users can now virtually hike twists and turns of the Bright Angel and South Kaibab trails, cross the Colorado River via Black Bridge and head into Phantom Ranch at the canyon bottom.
The imagery, available at http://maps.google.com/grandcanyon, covers more than 75 miles in and around the canyon. The collection also allows visitors to detour to Meteor Crater.
Google spokeswoman Deanna Yick said the additions are part of the search giant's goal of making a map of the world that's as comprehensive, accurate and easy-to-use as possible.
The Grand Canyon was the pilot venture for Trekker, a backpack-mounted camera system with 15 lenses that capture pictures every 2.5 seconds. An operator carrying the 40-pound device controls it via an Android-powered app.
"We really felt like the trails and the terrain and navigating the footpaths of the Grand Canyon were really the perfect place to see if the Trekker would work and bring the imagery online," Yick said.
Now, people who aren't able to visit the popular tourist site can experience the views and explore the canyon's geological history, and those planning trips can get a preview online, she said.
Grand Canyon National Park spokeswoman Maureen Oltrogge said the imagery may be helpful for hikers when used in combination with other sources of information. That includes learning about the dangers of extreme weather and how much food and water to bring, she said.
"As a tool it can be useful, but not as a stand-alone tool," Oltrogge said.
The number of people hiking below the rim ranges from 1,500 to more than 2,000 a day depending on the season, she said.
Pam Foti, professor of geography, planning and recreation at Northern Arizona University, said the imagery is good for providing a clear picture of the terrain but could potentially mislead hikers.
"The terrains, regardless of what they look like on the map, are challenging," Foti said.
Yick said the images aren't meant to be relied on solely when users are planning a trip to the area.
"We just wanted to be able to at least have imagery for people to experience and get a sense of what this place is like," she said.
Despite her concerns, Foti called the imagery "pretty incredible."
"There's nothing that's going to stop this kind of technology," Foti said.

Usher shows his fans the way
Smooth style, dance moves wow the crowd at Summerfest
While Usher may have taken a backseat to his shaggy protégé Justin Bieber this week in terms of fan frenzy and attendance, Mr. Raymond proved he's still firmly in the driver's seat when it comes to entertainment.
With more years spent on stage than Bieber has spent on Earth, Usher's comfort level in performing shines through in his silky dance moves, effortless croon and, above all, an absolute command of his audience.
Wednesday's show at the Marcus Amphitheater got off to a late start, but Usher finally emerged slowly in mirrored shades, white jeans and a T-shirt, a black leather jacket and boots. Flanked by a half-dozen dancers, he jumped right into "Caught Up," off his 2004 smash hit album, "Confessions."
Unlike the ultra-wholesome Bieber, Usher isn't afraid to put his sexuality at the forefront of his records or his stage show.
He grabbed his crotch during one of his early hits, "Make Me Wanna," which would become a familiar sight throughout the show, along with simulated sex with his dancers and his mic stand. He paused at one point to apologize to a man in the front row for a wayward pelvic thrust, assuring the guy that it was meant for his girlfriend.
But it wasn't the fake sex that elicited an ovation from the mostly female audience. From playful smirks and prolonged gazes into the crowd to his fluid dance moves, Usher seemed to relish squeezing every bit of energy out of his fans.
The recently divorced co-owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball squad mentioned he was "single and ready to mingle" before diving into "Bad Girl," another "Confessions" hit.
He paused to remind everyone that despite his years in the spotlight and massive success, he's still only 31.
"You guys want to take a ride down memory lane?" he asked. "I'm not that old. We can walk down memory lane."
That launched a medley of "Confessions 1& 2" and "Nice and Slow," the night's first slow jam.
Perhaps the biggest proof of Usher's star power was his ability to draw deafening applause by simply standing still and glancing out over the crowd, which he did time and again throughout the set.
Flashing his washboard abs during the suggestive "Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)" and joining his dancers for a grueling dance routine on "U Don't Have to Call" drew deafening screams, as did a rapid medley of tender jams including "My Boo," "I Need a Girl" and "Chivalry."
The banging dance number "Yeah!" drew the biggest reaction of the night before Usher disappeared, only to return a short time later for a lengthy encore.
The hip-hop tales of female empowerment and abstinence of opening act Lyfe Jennings were an odd pairing with the songs by the libidinous headliner, but the positive anthems were well received.

Tottenham Hotspur Message Board

Officially - this is crazy!
Hi lts, I have just spoken to a fellow Spurs fan who watched last night and he said pretty much the same thing. I just don't get it......even if we got a striker now its likely that it would take a few games for them to hit their stride and we have Newcastle, West Brom and Norwich coming up (ordinarily you would want at least 8 points from those games) so if we don't take points at these we are up against it in the first few weeks.
There is every chance that next Sat we will be starting the match with Defoe up front on his own and if that happens we deserve to be the laughing stock that we will be IMO. Top 4?? Yeah right!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Mmm... I agree it seems surprising, BUT we were all saying worse this time last season & look where we were by the next transfer window.
I may sound naive, I just get a bit frustrated by this much negativity a week before the season's started and nearly 3 weeks before the window closes. It would be really interesting to see if we are bringing some of the young'uns through, many of us have previously identified that as something we've not been strong enough with, I'd be curious to see how they settle. And whatever happens, it'll be a helluva ride!
Also Sfer, the pedant in me can't resist... you mean 7 points, yeah? If we can get 8/9 we'd be Man U & have 'one for luck'!! ;-)
- 1 Reply to not_blonde_really
I don't mean to be negative nbr but for a team that finished 4th last year and pretentions of doing as well, if not better, this year - to start the season with a VERY unproven 19 year old and a midget (albeit a good proven goalscoring one) up front is ridiculous.
We should be expecting a point from the Newcastle game and wins at Norwich and West Brom shouldn't we? So yes 7 points - why not? But will we get them if we can't score goals? Unlikely eh!
Instead I read this moring AVB is after TWO more midfielders - I don't know about the rest of you but I think AVB has been watching too much Barcelona and he is thinking who needs strikers!! I am VERY worried.

After we published Celia's Magic Castle post last week, we received several emails from Bruce Gold, who was concerned that the post painted him as a "villain." Here is Celia's heart-felt response:
It appears my previous post detailing my adventures at the Magic Castle has stirred up some distress with the performer I âassisted,â Bruce Gold. Who knew my fear of the stage would materialize into an offended magician? Just to clarify, I had a great time at the Castle. It is a place of mystery and fun, not a torture chamber or breeding ground for villains.
Gold is a charming entertainer (with a good Jewish mother), who could not have predicted that my paralyzing stage fright would be the subject of a public blog post, which was meant only to poke fun at myself.
When writing an opinion piece, you run the risk of offending people, but that was not my intention. I hope all is well on the stage and on the page.
