Afro Basaldella
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (October 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Afro Basaldella (March 4, 1912 – July 24, 1976) was one of the most important Italian painters in the post war period together with Alberto Burri and Lucio Fontana, and at the beginning a member of the Scuola Romana. He was generally known by the single name Afro.
Born in Udine, Afro first showed his work when he was sixteen, alongside the paintings of his artist brothers, Dino and Mirko. Two years later he won a scholarship to study art in Rome.
By 1933 he was exhibiting at the Galleria del Milione in Milan. In 1935 he participated in the Rome Quadriennale art exhibition, and he showed his work several times at the Venice Biennale. Afro followed the School of Rome, creating murals and taking part in the neo-Cubism movement.
Afro travelled to New York in 1950 and began a twenty-year collaboration with the Catherine Viviano Gallery. The different cultural climate and the diversity of the American art scene of the period impressed him, and his work grew to reflect new influences.
Dore Ashton wrote about Afro in 1955 in Art Digest: "Like most Italians, Afro knows how to celebrate. The fanciful, ebullient side of his nature emerges in the high-keyed recent paintings—those in which he allowed himself the most freedom and spontaneity to date. In these, he celebrates the delights of senses".[citation needed]
Afro was shown in an exhibition called The New Decade: 22 European Painters and Sculptors, which toured the United States. His work was included at documenta 1 in Kassel, Germany. In the mid-1950s Afro's art became known worldwide, and he was celebrated in his home country with the honor of Best Italian Artist at the 1956 Venice Biennale.
He spent the following year teaching at Mills College in Oakland, California. During his time as artist-in-residence at the school he made a mural for the UNESCO headquarters in Paris. It was titled The Garden of Hope and was included amongst works by Appel, Arp, Calder, Matta, Miró, Picasso and Tamayo at UNESCO.
Afro continued to show his work internationally. He was invited to the second documenta, and showed at MIT and numerous European museums. He won first prize at the Carnegie Triennial in Pittsburgh and the Italian prize at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. The Guggenheim bought his 1957 painting Night Flight. In 1961, Guggenheim curator James Johnson Sweeney published a monograph on his work, where he wrote: "His color is sensuous, warm—never cold; fluid, not structural; free-edged, never sharply contoured. Light and color, shadow and shape achieve a suggested space effect through their ordering and flood it with the glories of his great predecessors: this festive spirit, this celebration of light and life—of life through light".[citation needed]
In the 1970s Afro began to suffer health problems, and he died in 1976 in Zürich. The following year, a monograph by Cesare Brandi was published. In 1978 the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna in Rome paid him homage in the form of a major retrospective. In 1992 a complete exhibition was held in Milan at Palazzo Reale. The Catalogue Raisonné of Afro was presented in November 1997 at the American Academy in Rome, and in 1998 at the Guggenheim Foundation in Venice.

Artistically inspired Dance Instruction in a Nurturing and Supportive Environment
Ballet, Jazz, Pilates, Modern, Hip Hop, Tap and other forms of Dance – Ages 2.5 – adult
At the Academy of American Ballet (AAB) we believe artistically inspired dancers are best developed through mastery of sound technique based on anatomical principles that are in harmony with the dancers body. Most dance schools force unnatural positions and advanced technique before the dancer has adequately matured. This not only causes unnecessary injuries but also stifles the confidence and creative development of the dancer who is left to focus on unrealistic expectations. Our culture is to motivate students to advance through love, inspiration, and mutual respect. We accomplish this by:
Providing a nurturing and supportive environment
- Each student is received with reverence regardless of ultimate dance goals.
- We believe every student regardless of innate ability or physical body type has the capacity to thrive and grow through dance.
- Our mission is to develop excellent dance technique and strong artistic expression in dancers of all ages all within a healthy and nurturing environment that fosters mutual respect and a life long love of dance.
Providing training that is rooted in anatomical principles
- Director of AAB, Julia Dugan is trained in techniques such as Pilates and Feldenkrais, and has taken coursework in Biomechanics. She stays abreast of new information regarding sound training methods, mentors the teachers, and provides opportunities for teachers to take workshop classes which focus on healthy biomechanics. She understands that dance training is an ever-growing body of knowledge, and that good teachers as well as students, are on a continual path of growth. She provides extensive feedback to teachers on an ongoing basis to encourage them on their journey. We are very fortunate to have an onsite Pilates studio, Motio with exceptional trainers who are working with both the teachers and the students (from the Intermediate level through advanced) to help us build on our knowledge of biomechanics.
- The Academy of American Ballet is proud to be the only dance school on the Peninsula that offers trio Pilates reformer classes to intermediate and advanced students. Our company members are required to take these lessons at least one time a week along with group Pilates mat classes. The reformer is the piece of Pilates equipment that most mimics the feel of dance while providing calibrated resistance for great muscle-building benefit. Careful cueing by the instructor, enables the dancers to access the right muscles and build healthy muscle patterns to prevent injury, increase range of motion, and build good technique. Almost all of the large AGMA companies such as, New York City Ballet, San Francisco Ballet, and American Ballet Theater have Pilates reformers as a part of their rehab centers for dancers. We are very fortunate to be able to take advantage of this equipment while dancers are laying down their initial technical foundation. Some ballet schools offer Pilates mat classes, but cannot afford the capital investment of reformer machines. We felt the investment was a critical piece in progressive training techniques for dancers. Trio reformer work allows dancers to access great training at a more affordable price than private reformer work which is usually prohibitively expensive for dancers.
- Our jazz, tap, and hip hop program allows dancers to excel through a strong technical background. We always use clean lyrics, with appropriate performance attire, and age-appropriate movement choices for young dancers to protect and nurture their innocence. We offer contemporary dancers classes that use powerful movement choices that promote meaning and beauty to the world rather than just simply mimicking movement that is trendy, but that does not necessarily bring lasting value to the audience. We promote all dance as artform that is not to be compromised.
- Accelerated track students in Basic 2 level students and above are formally assessed at the beginning of the academic year. The focus of this assessment is to capture physical tendencies of students that we know will need to be addressed in order for a student to achieve their full potential. These evaluations are optional and non-judgmental. They are used merely to inform us and to help us to address issues, as well as to see if we are making progress from year-to-year. We are proud to be the only school we are aware of that does this, and we are finding it extremely helpful to both students and teachers.
Performance Opportunities
We believe dance is best performed! AAB offers many performance opportunities throughout the year ranging from informal recitals to our highly regarded annual holiday Nutcracker ballet that sells out the historic Fox Theatre in downtown Redwood City. Our June recital is another highlight with performances that showcase our talented dancers. Every student at AAB regardless of age or ability is invited to audition and our performers typically range in age from 3 to 65. Advanced students can also join our performance company Ballet America for more intensive stage training and access to principal roles.
Our students have successfully auditioned for competitive summer programs with prestigious companies like American Ballet Theatre, Boston Ballet, Joffrey Ballet, and Lines. We have had students successfully compete and place in the prestigious YAGP ballet competition. Our students have performed professional-level roles like Rose and Snow Queen in Nutcracker with complete artistic and technical mastery. We are also very proud of the accomplishments of our students for whom dance has always been recreational, but have still gained so much inner strength, and self-esteem through our program.
I do not try to dance better than anyone else. I only try to dance better than myself.
— Mikhail Baryshnikov

The Money Trap
For those of you who read my last article, Sex and Money: Part II, and got all excited, I've got a few warnings for you. What I described was a way of life for some people.
What I didn't say is that most people that live that kind of life go overboard, lose track of what is really important and end up broken men. I'm not saying you can't go out there and party, but moderation is important. Keep that in mind fellas.
money is good but...If you want to be a player in this world you need money — we all agree on this. Keep in mind, however, one important fact: money itself has little intrinsic value. For money to have a value to up-and-comers such as yourself (unless you are a loser who just happened to stumble across this article), money should be used carefully to achieve certain objectives.
What do I mean? It's simple, money can be spent to acquire power in this world. Policemen being bribed, politicians and judges being bought, and gifts given to certain people (that expensive bottle of wine or that red Ferrari F355) are all ways to use money in order to acquire power.
When a businessman donates millions to his Alma Mater (for you morons out there that means the University he attended and graduated from), is it just for the fun of giving away money? Not unless the guy's lost his marbles (it happens, I know this guy Salvatore...forget it, I'll tell you about him some other time).
Usually such a donation serves many purposes: to show the world he is successful, to make high level contacts (which can be used to make more high level contacts), and to guarantee that his two kids, with a combined IQ of 47, will get into Harvard (who said life was fair?)
When you have money, you can help those people you want (or need) to help much more easily than if you don't have the necessary financial resources. The catch-22 is that people with money and power tend to hang around expensive places.
Thus if you want to make those contacts and hang with that crowd, you have to have access to enough capital to gain entrance to these places (and don't forget to dress the part). Furthermore, a modicum of respectability and recognition helps (hence the large donation to a university, local hospital, political party, etc.).
This is money used the smart way; keep reading for the downside of money. And there is a huge downside to having money, believe it or not.

Several Orlando, Florida area debt relief companies which offered to reduce consumer's credit card interest rates are banned from providing debt relief services.
The Orlando Division of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida entered judgment in the amount of $ 5.9 million against JPM Accelerated Services, Inc. of Melbourne, Florida, and
$ 3.2 million against IXE Accelerated Services, Inc. of Altamonte Springs, Florida (Orlando, FL) and six individuals on November 9, 2010. The Federal Trade Commission settlement also bans the two related operations from making robocalls and selling debt relief services.
The FTC's complaint alleged that defendants made thousands of illegal pre-recorded robocalls to consumers, identifying themselves only as "card services" and offering lower credit card interest rates. Consumers who responded to the call were transferred to telemarketers who falsely promised the consumer that they could dramatically reduce their credit card interest rates.
Consumers paid defendants up front fees ranging from $ 495 to $ 995. Consumers received very little in return. According to the FTC's complaint :
"In some instances, after consumers complete and return defendant's forms, defendants initiate three-way telephone calls with the consumers and the customer service departments of the relevant credit card companies that consumers listed on the forms. These three-way telephone calls merely consist of defendants verbally requesting (or prompting consumers to verbally request) that the credit card companies reduce the consumer's credit card interest rates. … The credit card companies typically decline the request, and the call ends. These three-way telephone calls are often the total extent of defendants' credit card interest rate reduction services."
In other words, consumers paid at least $ 495 for services that were highly unlikely to work and which the consumer could have performed themselves. "Interest rate reduction"
programs scams are more common than I would have believed, the predators who operate them charge vulnerable credit card borrowers a lot of money.
The FTC's complaint provides some insight into why desperate consumers would part with their hard earned money :
"During telemarketing calls, defendants claim to have the ability to substantially reduce consumers' credit card interest rates. In many instances, defendants claim that they can obtain very low interest rates, such as 4 to 7 percent, for consumers. Defendants also often claim that their interest rate reduction services will provide substantial savings to consumers, typically $ 2500 or more, in a short period of time, and will enable consumers to pay off their debt much faster, typically three to five times faster, without increasing their monthly payments"
Defendants claims to have a 98% success rate. Defendants often also offered a money back guarantee but rarely refunded the fee charged to consumers for purchasing the defendants' ineffective services.
The FTC's complaint also alleged that defendants also violated the Telemarketing Sales Rule by calling consumers on the Do Not Call Registry, blocking or "spoofing" caller ID, and making unlawful robocalls.
The judgments against the credit card interest rate programs totaled
$ 9.1 million. This indicates that somewhere between 9,100 and 18,200 consumers paid the defendants between $ 495 to $ 995 to negotiate lower credit card interest rates with their credit card banks. The borrowers' response to the robocalls indicates how desperate many consumers are to continue to pay their credit card accounts.

By Spc. Tyler MeisterJune 26, 2012
KANDAHAR AIRFIELD (Army News Service, June 21, 2012) -- The feedback students receive from realistic mannequins at the Medical Simulation Training Center, or MSTC, can be very harsh and exacting. If students don't apply a tourniquet properly or open an airway quickly in training scenarios, an "injured" mannequin with simulated vital signs can quickly deteriorate into a "lifeless" mannequin.
Experiencing a simulated death can be a tough lesson for a student. But it's better to experience the lesson on a training site than the battlefield, said Gerald Smith, MSTC site leader.
"The training here is special because it features realistic scenarios for students," Smith said. "We feature $50,000 medical mannequins that breathe and bleed just like a real person."
Smith teaches all servicemembers at the MSTC life-saving skills ranging from standard combat life saver courses to advanced, battle-simulated medical training. He said MSTC provides a curriculum that balances the basics as well as the latest battlefield techniques.
Smith said a training facility like this is rare, especially in Afghanistan. Aside from this MSTC, Bagram Airfield is the only other location in Afghanistan that has an MSTC. There were six MSTCs throughout Afghanistan, but only two remain due to troop draw downs, Smith said.
Around 300 servicemembers are trained each week, but Smith said the MSTC had the capability to train even more troops each week. He emphasized the center is eager to share important medical-treatment knowledge with all service branches.
"We are here to support everyone," Smith said. "The opportunities for unique, high-quality training exist here. Some units just don't know who we are and what we have to offer."

The Hong Kong Young Writers Awards 2016
The competition's main aim is to foster excellence in creativity by providing students with the opportunity to develop their expressive talents and expand their horizons. The awards encourage and recognise excellence in English writing and artwork among students of various age groups, diverse backgrounds and different learning abilities.
Since its inception in 2010, the competition has been a resounding success, with more than 900 innovative entries coming in from 160+ participating schools across Hong Kong, Macau and China in 2015.
All entries should be based on the theme for 2016, New Tales of the Terracotta Warriors. This year's topic explores the vast and extraordinary Terracotta Warriors. Otherwise known as the Terracotta Army, over 8,000 sculptures represent what were Qin Shi Huang's armies. Qin Shi Huang was the First Emperor of China, famous for conquering and uniting all the warring states of China, also uniting the diverse state walls into what is now known as the Great Wall of China. The Terracotta Warriors were tasked to protect their Emperor in the afterlife, discovered in 1974; the Terracotta Warriors have been buried for close to 2200 years! The Terracotta Warriors are special, in that each figure is so unique that it has been said that they were based on real soldiers.
Winners will be chosen in 18 categories, and one lucky student will be named The Hong Kong Young Writer of 2016.
Exciting opportunities for your students this year
In addition to the Fiction, Non-fiction, Poetry and Cover Art we are happy to announce the return of the:
Digital Storytelling Category (Group 7)
This year we are happy to bring back the Digital Storytelling Award. This award invites students in upper secondary school (aged 16-18) to produce short films in the style of either a drama or documentary. We hope to connect with every film studies and media studies teacher in Hong Kong to ensure the largest amount of students gain the recognition they deserve. For more information please request/consult the 'Digital Storytelling' brief document.

In a new report, the IBM Center for the Business of Government outlines eight recommendations for the Defense Department to improve the way it buys goods and services – a reform effort that has been ongoing, in some form, for the past 50 years.
To date, DOD acquisition reform hasn't gotten very far, particularly in recent years when the torrent of wartime funding camouflaged ineffective buying practices. The struggle is further underscored in a department-wide shift from buying more goods to buying more services, which requires different rules that have yet to materialize.
"Of approximately $400 billion spent on contracts for goods and services in FY 2011, over half was spent on services," notes the executive summary of the report, released Dec. 17. "Yet the rules, policies and practices are based solely on buying goods; and there are differences in optimizing the procurement of a tank and an engineer."
Targeting the appropriate use of competition, the first step, is one of the core steps in improving the acquisition process. It's widely recognized that competition is tied to reduced costs and better performance, but it's not always properly wielded.
The Pentagon's Better Buying Program calls for all services to be re-competed every three years, but the report notes that the requirement discourages companies from investing in quality performance and services since the contract will be up for competition in three years no matter how good a job they do.
"Competition, when done properly, can be an incentive for incumbents to perform well – because if they perform well, there's a better chance of getting the follow-on contract that enhances the value," said Dan Chenok, executive director for the IBM Center for the Business of Government. "Competition also can incentivize competitors to come in and produce better solutions."
Types of contracts also make the list of recommendations, including the use of indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity and lowest price technically acceptable. In the case of the former, overuse now contributes to duplicative contracts that are too broad. LPTA originally was intended for buying commodities with little variation in quality, but the approach now gets applied to services, which drives down quality.
"If you drive down the price too far, you're going to lose the abilities of highly skilled practitioners in industry, because industry won't be able to afford to hire skilled enough workers to meet the LPTA model," Chenok said.
Another problem Pentagon acquisition officials face is barriers in buying commercial products. Despite the fact that the defense industry could, in many cases, save by buying the same products and services as the civilian and commercial sectors, certain acquisition policies discourage such dual-use industrial operations. As a result, most contractors have separate commercial and government sides. Additionally, export controls deter some companies from doing defense work.
"As technology evolves and as companies around the world provide value to customers by developing good and services ... the more the government can leverage in its buying and the more DOD can capitalize on technology's offerings at a good price available in the commercial market," Chenok said. "There is recognition in some cases where DOD needs a government-only buying strategy, but that needs to be narrowly targeted."
Such changes likely will require altering laws that dictate the way the government can buy goods and services, as well as Federal Acquisition Regulations – guidelines that have yet to catch up to the 21st century marketplace.
"These barriers are not necessarily enshrined in law but enshrined in practices through FAR, where firms are sometimes prevented from selling in the most functional way," Chenok said. "None of this is to say that these protections don't exist for a reason, and we want to make sure the government has accountability; we want to make sure that legislation there to protect the sustainability of the U.S. industrial base and the U.S. government. But it's a question of degree – and as technology evolves...making sure the government is assessing what is the right line to draw."

Femsa Quarterly Profit Rises 37% on Oxxo Growth in Mexico
Fomento Economico Mexicano SAB, owner of Latin America's largest convenience store chain, said second-quarter profit rose 37 percent, helped by new store openings of Oxxo outlets.
Net income climbed to 3.89 billion pesos ($292 million) from 2.84 billion pesos a year earlier, the Monterrey, Mexico-based company said in a statement today. Revenue rose 23 percent to 59.6 billion pesos. Analysts projected 59.7 billion pesos, the average of seven estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Femsa, majority-owner of soft-drinks company Coca-Cola Femsa SAB, has benefited from the expansion of the Oxxo chain, opening 290 net new stores in the second quarter. Revenue at Femsa's retail unit rose 17 percent to 22.2 billion pesos as same-store sales increased 7.8 percent. Its store count was 9,989 as of June 30.
The shares increased 2.4 percent to 118.27 pesos in Mexico City, the largest gain since March 30.
Net income in the quarter for Femsa included 690 million pesos from its stake in Heineken NV, up from 540 million pesos a year earlier. Femsa holds a 20 percent share in the Amsterdam-based brewer after selling its beer business to the Dutch company in 2010.
Coca-Cola Femsa's net income fell 1.3 percent to 2.71 billion pesos as the peso weakened and high-fructose corn syrup and labor costs rose, the company reported on July 24. Sales for the soft-drinks unit, which is partly owned by Atlanta-based Coca-Cola Co., rose 28 percent to 36.3 billion pesos after the company acquired three Mexican bottlers over the last year.

Awesome product..!!!!!!!!!!I have got this mini laptop before 2 days. It is really a stunning piece i ever used. It is very light weight with attractive colors. The only thing which i found is not good i.e. 2 GB of RAM is fully loaded with the company softwares which makes the applications to respond slowly. In case if you want to upgrade the RAM, u will need 64 bit version of windows 7 starter. Because 32 bit version supports up to 2 GB only. If u want to upgrade with more memory of RAM, u'll need to re install the operating system with 64 bit version and a RAM of higher memory. Than only the speed of laptop would be u… (Expand)

best laptop for people who like light weight easy portable laptop in a reasonable price.This is the best laptop , i am using since 1.5 yrs. Not a single hardware problem. I upgraded my RAM to 4 gb , and now its awesome. I am running both windows and UBUNTU in this lapi. I do all my programming , web surfing . There is not a single complaint against this product. I would recommend to change the ram to 4gb and change the windows starter to some other version after changing ram , because starter is a 32 bit os , which can not use 4 gb ram.

"Haines, Alaska" Top 5 Page for this destination Haines by jamiesno
Haines Travel Guide: 96 reviews and 208 photos
Haines, Alaska for me was a real treat and a very scenic and mountainous region of the continent.
Haines is a small community with endless opportunities for outdoor activities.
On one lucky day I was fortunate to be in town during the annual king salmon fishing derby and the 12th annual nual Great Alaska Craftbeer & Homebrew Festival.
At the northern end of America's longest fjord, Haines shares a border with 20 million acres of protected wilderness. The heart of Alaska's Glacier Bay National Park is less than 25 miles by air from downtown Haines, and Canada's Kluane National Park and Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park are just up the road. As you can imagine, opportunities for outdoor recreation are endless.

Funnel cloud spotted in Dallas area
The funnel cloud was part of a severe weather system that rolled over North Texas Wednesday evening
sequiturial: I think I've figured out why D. effing Trump hires zombies like Katrina Pierson and Kellyanne Conway. I call it the Humiliation Factor. The way D. Effing Trump is alienating HUGE voting blocs, it is becoming more and more apparent that he doesn't really have any interest in becoming president. Even though he has words, many fantastic words, he isn't using them well enough to provide maximum humiliation. So, he hired those two Trump Zombies to parade in front of national to enhance the Humiliation Factor.

Hi there,
I live in Mississippi and have been researching my family history off and on for about 10 years now. I love uncovering new ancestors and finding new cousins. Cemeteries have fascinated me since I was a little girl so I'm glad my daughter-in-law told me about this site. I've spent a lot of time in local cemeteries copying tombstones and will try to load them all on here as time allows.
Surnames I am researching are: Schmidt/Smith, Sartin, Townsend, Wilson, Mason, Rutland, May, Farley, Barnes, Brister, Owens, Magee, Ingram, Williams, Boyanton, Jordan, Bridges, Galbreth, Carouth, Crosby, Walker, Jones, Allgood, Case, Stewart, Hunt, and four to five more Smith lines. I'll be more than happy to share and compare any information I have.
Please let me know if I have any mistakes that need to be corrected.
Take care,

Jackson family
I just looked at the Jackson family in Mississippi. I want you to know that I did not know when I did the research that I was related to the Jackson. An early researcher thought my great great grandmother was Elizabeth Davis, She was wrong and it took me year to find out that she was the daughter of George Jackson and Elizabeth Russell. My 2x great grandmother Elizabeth Jackson was married first to Henry L. Stevens. Steven Jackson the brother of George Jackson was married to Mahala Carpenter. Steven died and Henry L Stevens died and my 2nd great grandfather John Curran Johnston married Mahala Carpenter Jackson. Mahala died during the Civil War and Henry L Stevens died at about the same time. My 2nd great grandfather then married #4 Elizabeth Jackson Steven's. As I said when I was doing research I was Looking at the Carpenter family connections to the "Nathan Smith Settlement" as well as the Minyard, Guess, and other families that are related to me.

RE: Jacksons in Vaiden, Mississippi
I must tell you that I am quite surprised about the Smith Jackson connection. I have long suspected that the Jackson family were at or near the Nathan Smith Settlement but had over looked the family of Elizabeth Jackson being married to Nathan Smith. Elizabeth's younger brother George Jackson is my 3rd great grandfather. Cecelia Gordon and William Jackson are my 4th great grandparents.
When I opened Elizabeth Jackson's profile I see that her husband is Nathan Smith.
As to where I get my information I do a lot of research. I have poured over the Nathan Smith Settlement many times and saw that the Jackson family and the Carpenter family had come from the same places as well as the other families mentioned in the document concerning Cherokee intrusion on Cherokee lands.
Are we related?

I hope thatyou are still doing research about the Jackson family. Tying in the Jackson family to the Nathan Smith settlement would be fantastic.
Before I write to much I want to hear from you.

RE: Wyley Smith - Memorial# 27958987
Hi Patti,
I'm having problems with my account but I'll try again! Thanks for adding the information to Wyley Smith's page. He was the brother of my great grandfather Fayette. It looks like there were four brothers who fought in the war. At one time I read a document where the surviving brothers were considered AWOL because they went back to work the harvest.
Wyley ENLISTED in the 33rd but due to casualties, it was combined with the 34th and rolled into the 45th. I've found at least two sites with this info but no original docs to verify.
Happy to meet you. D.

A public ceremony and reception is being planned after the completion of this project - hopefully sometime this Fall.

Their Eyes Were Watching God
by Zora Neale Hurston
Their Eyes Were Watching God Dreams, Hopes, and Plans Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
At the newel post Janie whirled around and for the space of a thought she was lit up like a transfiguration. Her next thought brought her crashing down. He's just saying anything for the time being, feeling he's got me so I'll b'lieve him. The next thought buried her under tons of cold futility. He's trading on being younger than me. Getting ready to laugh at me for an old fool. But oh, what wouldn't I give to be twelve years younger so I could b'lieve him! (11.56)
Janie's hopes and dreams wreak havoc on her emotions, which have understandably been traumatized by Joe. She no longer trusts her dreams to keep her on the right course toward love, and this makes her question Tea Cake's integrity. In a short time, Janie vacillates between ecstasy and "cold futility," and her vision for her future with Tea Cake oscillates between blissful happiness and shameful embarrassment.
Quote #5
Janie buried Tea Cake in Palm Beach…Janie had wired to Orlando for money to put him away. Tea Cake was the son of Evening Sun, and nothing was too good. The Undertaker did a handsome job and Tea Cake slept royally on his white silken couch among the roses she had bought. He looked almost ready to grin. Janie bought him a brand new guitar and put it in his hands. He would be thinking up new songs to play to her when she got there. (19.182)
Even though Tea Cake, the fulfillment of her dream of love, has died, Janie does not stop remembering him or conjuring up future dreams. She envisions him in heaven, playing his brand new guitar when she goes up to join him. Tea Cake is still alive in her dreams.
Quote #6
The day of the gun, and the bloody body, and the courthouse came and commenced to sing a sobbing sigh out of every corner in the room; out of each and every chair and thing. Commenced to sing, commenced to sob to sigh, singing and sobbing. Then Tea Cake came prancing around her where she was and the song of the sigh flew out of the window and lit in the top of the pine trees. Tea Cake, with the sun for a shawl. Of course he wasn't dead. He could never be dead until she herself had finished feeling and thinking. The kiss of his memory made pictures of love and light against the wall. Here was peace. (20.12)
Janie makes the final association between her memories and her future dreams. Although she cherishes the past, she does not see the future now as a bleak place lacking Tea Cake. Rather, Janie envisions her future as a time to cherish her memories of Tea Cake and wait for the time that she can join him in heaven.

I placed some photos on my wordpress site and I'd like to allow users to comment on individual photos. I have about 100 or so photos that I can put in a page or a post.
I'd like to allow the user to click a link "comment on this particular photo" under each photo, so I can see their comments for an individual photo not just the collection.
How can I achieve this?

Good Commentary & Bad
The best commentary on the Obama "accommodation" so far, and how to respond to it, has come from Bishop Blase Cupich of Spokane, in an article at America. He writes: "I believe that an even greater opportunity is before us, namely to have a deeper and on a more prolonged basis a fundamental dialogue about the role of religion in society in general and the nature of religious liberty, especially as it applies to faith-based charitable, health and social service ministries in the United States, in particular. I also believe that the president, relying on his personal experience with church, which he cited once again this week, has not only the potential but also the responsibility to make a significant contribution to this more sustained and expansive discussion." Bishop Cupich's balanced look at the issues involved should be read by everyone, but especially by his brother bishops.

Steward Martin politely reminds the reader that David Ciciline stayed for two full terms as Providence mayor and made a good effort to save the city from bankruptcy, while Mayor Tavares has served only one (�Opportunist Tavares failed Providence,� letter, July 17).
The fact is, Mr. Ciciline gave an erroneous assessment of Providence�s finances, telling voters they were �excellent��when in reality the city was in shambles, while residents payed some of the highest taxes in the country.
Mr. Ciciline actually apologized in 2010, saying that he should not have used the word �excellent� and that �it was never my intention to mislead people intentionally.�
Mayor Taveras, according to a recent poll, received the highest job approval rating in the state. He must be doing something right.
Mr. Tavares seems to have what most Rhode Island politicians lack � integrity.

FTC CTO: Full Disk Encryption Is Important In Preventing Crime
from the taking-a-stand dept
Strong end-user privacy and security controls, such as device encryption and firmware passwords, not only protect personal information from unwanted access – they can also make it easier to recover lost or stolen devices as well.He notes that this actually allowed him to help track down the device, because whoever ended up with the "useless" laptop tried to bring it to an Apple Genius Bar, which resulted in Soltani receiving an email.
Last month, I had the misfortune of having a personal laptop stolen.
Fortunately for me, while I was a bit bummed about losing my two-year-old laptop, I backup regularly and always enable disk encryption which is an important step to protect the information stored on the hard-disk from unwanted access by criminals, employers, or other actors (with the exception of very sophisticated adversaries).
Fast forward to a few weeks later, when I received an email to my personal account notifying me of an upcoming Apple Genius Bar visit. I was initially confused by the email but soon realized that it's probably the thief (or the undiscerning buyer) of my laptop trying to take it into Apple for repair – likely because they're unable to use it without knowing the firmware password I set.And thus, the FTC's CTO makes it clear that full disk encryption has benefits beyond even just keeping your own data safe:
I immediately began calling local law enforcement and the nearby Apple stores notifying them of the theft and this development. After a few phone calls and the help of a fantastic Sergeant in the Local Crimes Unit of the Sacramento Police department, I was able to coordinate an agreement whereby Apple would notify law enforcement if the new user brought the machine in for repair. After an initial disappointment on account of the suspect skipping his Genius Bar reservation, a representative from Apple Customer Relations notified me that the device was brought into another store and they were coordinating with Sacramento Police Department to return it to me. I'm unclear as to whether they were able to track down the original thief.
In the end, strong end-user controls like device encryption and firmware passwords not only protect sensitive info stored on the device, they also prevent criminals from utilizing stolen property. The more devices feature strong end-user controls, the less likely thieves can profit from their theft on the open market.Given that the FBI is supposed to be interested in preventing crime, you'd think James Comey would support that kind of thing...

Area news in brief: Feb. 8, 2011

Cop allegedly hit in bar fight
HOUMA — A 28-year-old accused of hitting a police officer who was trying to break up a barroom brawl was arrested on multiple charges Sunday morning, Houma Police said.
Officers responded about 2 a.m. to reports of fighting at the Downtown Balcony, 7834 Main St. As an officer moved in to break up the fight, the suspect allegedly punched him in the mouth with a closed fist.
Kyle McElroy, 120 Mall Circle, Houma, allegedly broke the officer's glasses but later said he didn't realize he'd hit a cop.
McElroy is charged with two counts battery on a police officer, disturbing the peace by fighting and other charges.
McElroy was released about 10 a.m. Sunday after posting a $25,000 bond, jail records say.
Cops: Steak used as weapon
HOUMA — A woman who allegedly hit her boyfriend in the face with a frozen beefsteak Sunday afternoon was jailed by investigating Terrebonne sheriff's deputies.
Edna Elizabeth Verdin, 47, 348 Robert St., Houma, is charged with aggravated battery.
Jerry Voisin, 51, told officers Verdin had already been drinking and was trying to cool her Tequila Rose alcohol but discovered the freezer was full.
In her frustration, Voisin said, Verdin took a frozen steak from the freezer and threw it at him, striking him in the face.
Officers said he was still bleeding from the right side of his face when they arrived about 6 p.m.
Verdin was released from the Terrebonne Parish jail after posting bond.
Volunteers sought for cancer center
HOUMA — The local American Cancer Society office is seeking volunteers, cancer survivors or students to help with the American Cancer Society's Cancer Resource Center at Chabert Medical Center.
Volunteers will be trained to assist cancer patients, their families and caregivers with the latest in cancer-related information and connect them to needed resources.
They will also provide information on community programs and services — along with dates and times for local American Cancer Society events and programs. For information, call the local American Cancer Society office at 851-7776 or 1-800-227-2345.
Do you have a winning recipe?
HOUMA — The deadline has been extended for The Courier and Daily Comet's 36th annual Bayou Gourmet Cook-Off.
The new deadline is Feb. 18.
You can submit recipes in one of nine categories: appetizers and bread; soups, salads and vegetables; seafood; healthy eating; quick and easy; meat, poultry and wild game; and desserts and candy.
Five finalists will be selected from each category to compete in the annual cook-off, set this year for March 12.
Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place in each category.
You can submit your recipe to The Courier, P.O. Box 2717, Houma, LA 70361 or LSU AgCenter office, 511 Roussell St., Houma, LA 70360.
For information, call Marian Long at 857-2291 or Shane Thibodaux at 857-2206.

All the stuff that Better Trades sells you can buy at craigslist and ebay for way cheaper.
Also, all the live seminar stuff is already in their books that all the instructors write. Darlene Nelson teaches stock split secrets in a live class for more than like 1000 bucks, but she also has a book with the same title that you can buy used for like 5. Would you pay someone 995 dollars to read their book to you? No way. I'll read you Darlene's book for like 100. Save some money. Look on amazon.com.
The first thing you see when you search for better trades in google is that they have ripoffreports.com AND (((Redacted)))pissed off. People are posting all the time, and I don't know how you could ignore it. I know lots of companies have bad reputations from a few complaints, but when you start typing better trades into google, it suggests better trades scam as a related search. Last time I saw it, it said there were 313,000 searches for that keyword!
If you keep looking after the first page, you'll see some better business beaureau complaints about Better Trades. I think the BBB is pretty reliable, I don't know about you. The only reason you can't see the BBB site on the first page is because they have about 30 other vanity sites for themselves. That doesn't sound very professional to me.
