Imagine nine students rehearsing 16 days to perform 37 plays by William Shakespeare in a heart-stopping 97 minutes. That is exactly what you can enjoy Jan. 25-26 at Davis & Elkins College' Boiler House Theatre. The Department of Fine and Performing Arts is producing "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)" which was London's longest-running comedy, for more than 10 years in the famed Criterion Theatre.
The madcap play features actors weaving their wicked way through all of Shakespeare's comedies, histories and tragedies in one wild ride that will leave the audience breathless with laughter.
Traditionally, casting for "Complete Works" includes only three actors, but the D&E production will feature the diverse talents of seven students enrolled in winter term theatre production classes. Not only will the students perform the play, they are also building the scenery, making the costumes and hanging the stage lights.

The D&E cast of "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)" gets ready for the Jan. 25-26 performances of this heart-stopping comedy that merges all 37 of the Bard's plays into only 97 minutes. From left are: Michael Good, Millie Omps, Ashley Collins, Alex Torres, Zack Snyder, Alyse Prince and Alex Brinkley. Shows begin at 8 p.m. each evening in the Boiler House Theatre on the D&E campus. For reservations, call 304-637-1212.
"The Complete Works," directed by April Daras, associate professor of Theatre and chair of the Fine & Performing Arts Department, is very different than the traditional Shakespearian performance. Playwrights Adam Long, Daniel Singer, and Jess Winfield successfully merged all of Shakespeare's plays into a fast-paced and gut-busting hour and a half. Its originality also stems from the use of gender-bending cross-dressing, quirky sight gags, stage accents, improvisation, music and frequent references to popular culture, all designed to connect the classical world of Shakespeare to the contemporary world of iPod.
According to Ben Brantley, critic with The New York Times, the play's "gung-ho vitality is impossible to resist. The conversion of the histories into a football game is very funny. So is a rap version of Othello. Hamlet truly soars and allows the actors to come into their own as manic clowns. At its giddiest, its tone recalls the fabled Bullwinkle cartoon shows."
The acting company includes: Millie Omps, Slanesville; Alex Binkley, Stafford, Va.; Alyse Prince, Hurricane; Alex Torres, Arlington, Va.; Zach Snyder, Hambleton; Ashley Collins, Independence; and Michael Good, Elkins.
The student production team includes scenic design by Jenny Hart, Elkins, and lighting design by TJ Myers, Mt. Airy, Md. Additional production support is provided by: Ashlen Wilson, Elkins; Millie Omps, Alex Binkley, Alyse Prince, Alex Torres, Zach Snyder, Ashley Collins, Michael Good, TJ Myers, Sarah Satterwhite, Farmington, and Sara Davenport, Spencer. Costume design is by Ruth Humphrey, instructor of Theatre, and technical direction is by Tom Hackman, associate professor of Theatre.
Regardless of your age or familiarity with the Bard, this production is a fun and exciting invitation into the world of Shakespeare. As a critic with the Today Show suggested: "If you like Shakespeare, you'll like this show. If you hate Shakespeare, you'll love this show!"
The performances begin at 8 p.m. in the Boiler House Theatre on the D&E Campus Jan. 25 and 26. For reservations, call 304-637-1212. Tickets are $7 general admission, $5 for students under 18, senior citizens and D&E Alumni, and free to current D&E students, staff and faculty.
For more information, please visit the D&E website at www.dewv.edu or call 304-637-1243.

This phrase is often used while playing video games against one other opponent. Typically the game that is at hand is a sports game, either on PS2, Xbox 360, or PS3. Most often its a basketball game. The phrase will be used when one player has been beaten mercifully 4-5 times in a row. The phrase will be used at the beginning, middle or at any time during the game, when one opponent feels his efforts are hopeless.

Former S.C. State board chairman Jonathan Pinson and business colleague Eric Robinson, both 42, pleaded not guilty to all parts of a three-count federal indictment this afternoon and were released on bond.
Pinson's bail was $25,000; Robinson's was $15,000.
Indictments against both men in connection with an alleged kickback scheme involving the university had been unsealed this morning.
U.S. Marshals led them in shackles into a courtroom in Columbia a little after 2:30 p.m. today.
Pinson, of Simpsonville, and his lawyer. Jim Griffin, walked out of the courthouse together. With Pinson standing next to him, Griffin spoke to reporters:
"Jonathan Pinson has devoted time, energy and money to make S.C. State a better place. He's never taken a dime. The charges are false. He is innocent. They are the fault of a flawed investigation."
Robinson, of Greer, is represented by attorney Shaun Kent.
Earlier today in a Charleston courtroom, former S.C. State University police chief Michael Bartley pleaded guilty in federal court to participating in a kickback scheme that prosecutors say also involved Pinson.
Bartley waived his right to a grand jury indictment, pleaded guilty to his role in the alleged scheme and agreed to fully cooperate with prosecutors.
"South Carolina State University and its students are the victims of the crime charged in this information, not the target," U.S. Attorney Bill Nettles said after Bartley's plea. "This investigation does not target South Carolina State University. Rather, this indictment focuses on two individuals who are alleged to have used their positions and relationships to prey on the University and line their pockets at the University's expense."
On the S.C. State campus today, students were concerned about the outcome of the indictments, but said the school itself remains separate.
"Our stomachs are in knots" over the secretive nature of the charges, said Akeem Brown, a 20-year-old student. "But our university is a university, not a circus." He said academics are more important to him.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Moore told a judge that Pinson and Bartley conspired to push S.C. State officials into purchasing a property in Orangeburg called Sportsman's Retreat, a recreational setting owned by a Florida businessman with ties to the two men. The price was to have been set by the businessman, he said.
The pitch was that the land could be used by the university for a conference center and other purposes, Moore said.
In return, the businessman agreed to give Pinson a new Porsche Cayenne worth more than $100,000, Moore said. Bartley's share of the deal was to be an all-terrain vehicle and a cash payment of about $30,000, he said.
The indictment identifies the businessman only as "Person A" but in court, Moore named him as Richard Zahn, who is a friend of Bartley's and a business associate of Pinson's. Zahn could not immediately be reached for comment today.
Orangeburg County land records indicate Zahn owns the land in question.
Court documents state that the land sale conspiracy ran between 2010 and late 2011.
Federal investigators placed a wire tap on Pinson's phone and intercepted several calls in the fall of 2011 that documented the scheme, Moore said. Authorities swooped in and put a stop to the deal before it could go forward, saving the university's money, he said.
In the nine-page indictment, prosecutors contend Pinson "used his position as chairman of the board to illegally enrich himself and improperly obtain various items of value."
Pinson and Robinson are accused of being involved in "extortion under color of official right" in dealings between 2009 and late 2011.
Among the allegations is that prosecutors contend Pinson received a "kickback" from Robinson for securing a contract to manage the 2011 S.C. State homecoming concert through WE Entertainment, where Robinson is a partner.
Pinson resigned as chairman in February, but continued to serve on the board. He stepped down from the board in December, saying he wanted to spend more time with his family.
Bartley, 47, was one of eight high-level employees fired by the school in February of last year. He pleaded guilty in front of U.S. District Judge David Norton in Charleston this morning to a conspiracy charge.
Moore told Norton that Bartley cooperated with federal authorities from the moment he was approached by FBI agents.
"He is one of very few people I can say that about in this investigation," he said.
The maximum penalty Bartley can receive is a fine of $250,000 and imprisonment for five years, plus a special assessment of $100. But in a plea agreement, prosecutors agreed to recommend a reduced sentence if he fully cooperates, testifies in court if needed, stays out of trouble and meets other conditions.
Norton released him on a $10,000 personal recognizance bond.
Bartley, wearing a dark blue suit and a grim expression, would not speak with reporters as he entered the courthouse and he said little during the hearing. Mainly, he just answered "yes" or "no" to Norton's questions.
Today's developments come almost a year after Reggie Lloyd, a lawyer hired by the university and former chief of the State Law Enforcement Division, said the university was involved in a criminal investigation, but he did not specify the nature of that investigation.
Walter Tobin, chairman of the university's board, will hold an on-campus press conference at 5 p.m. today, to discuss today's development.
Tobin and S.C. State board attorney Peter Wilborn attended the court hearing in Charleston, but they declined to comment until all of the facts are known.
In addition to Pinson, other board members who stepped down recently are Walter Johnson and Matthew Richardson, both of whom resigned in April, and Lancelot Wright, who resigned in May.
The school this year also has faced a budget shortfall of nearly $6 million, and enrollment fell short by nearly 500 students.

EAST PALESTINE - Keeping in line with tightening loose ends in the village, council members want to make sure the charter is reviewed in a more timely manner.
The discussion came up during the regular council meeting before members approved an employment agreement for village manager Pete Monteleone.
Monteleone had previously been appointed for the position by council, but village solicitor Shirley Smith said council wanted an agreement in place as well.
The agreement describes his overall duties, stipulates when performance evaluations will be given and how retirement and other benefits will be executed.
The brief charter discussion resulted after councilman Don Elzer asked why a term limit wasn't included in the agreement. Smith said term limits are not required according to the village's charter.
She explained that Monteleone's agreement would end if he chooses to resign or council opts to have him removed.
Councilman Fran Figley then asked who was responsible for writing the charter, and resident Stephen Hill, who formerly served on the charter review committee, estimated it was written in 1991 or 1992.
The charter was reviewed every five years since then, and all changes to the document must be approved by a ballot vote, he added.
The committee is responsible for recommending the changes to council, and those changes are then put before voters.
Smith noted that in 2011 council put an amendment before voters to add language to the charter that the police and fire chief positions could not be eliminated. The amendment passed by 63.1 percent.
Figley then asked whether five years was too long for the committee to go without meeting and suggested reviews be conducted every two years instead.
Smith said she would look into whether that could be changed.
Council then approved the agreement for Monteleone, with his annual salary set at $65,000. He will receive all annual raises given to other full-time non-union employees, although the village is currently in a wage freeze.
Performance evaluations will be given every year in October and Monteleone will receive a summary of those evaluations from Smith, according to the agreement.
In other business, council appointed a new member to the East Palestine Library Board. The library turned to council to appoint a new member after the state passed legislation earlier this month expanding membership from six to seven.
Following a brief executive session council appointed Jim Wilson to the four-year term on the board. He will join current members Kevin McKinstry, Karen Mitchell, Margaret Brittain, Carolyn Wilkovich, Stephen Hill and Geraldine Guy. Board members are not paid for their service.
Wilson spent six years as Library Media Center Director for the village school district. In his resume to council, he stated that he would like to expand the working relationships between the school and local library to benefit "not only our students but that of the local community members through the exchange of ideas and resources."
Councilman Jim Tyger abstained from the vote due to being related
Council also approved:
- A one-year employment agreement for Shirley Smith. The annual agreement is presented at the end of each year and is not new for the village solicitor position. Smith will earn $15,600 a year.
- Supplemental appropriations for 2012.

FORT MYERS, Fla. – The Stetson's men's basketball team's 2013-14 season came to an end Tuesday night as the eighth seeded Hatters lost 77-55 to top seeded Florida Gulf Coast in the Atlantic Sun Conference Quarterfinals at Alico Arena.
"Florida Gulf Coast played really well. They're a very talented team with good leadership," Stetson head coach Corey Williams said in his post-game press conference. "They are a formidable opponent, and they're going to do well in this Atlantic Sun Tournament."
The Eagles (21-11) looked to be on a similar to path to that of last season when FGCU won its first ever A-Sun Championship and went on to advance to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament as a 15 seed.
Although they came in confident, the Hatters (7-24) couldn't get anything going offensively to start the game.
"We thought that we could come in here and win the game," Williams said. "We felt like the last time we played them it was a great game."
It was. Back on Jan. 21 Stetson lost in Fort Myers to FGCU by a score of 71-68 on a last second three pointer by the Eagles' Bernard Thompson. But like that regular season loss, Stetson gave up a big lead to Florida Gulf Coast in the early going, trailing 10-2 four minutes in.
"When you start missing shots you start second guessing yourself," said Williams of the early woes. "I think if our shots go in early, and we get some easy baskets, then we would have felt okay. We could have settled in a little bit."
Instead the Eagles continued rolling, and extended their lead to 13 points near the midway point of the first half, at 17-4. With Stetson shooting having gone ice cold, and FGCU using the sellout crowd to ignite its offense, the Eagles cruised to a 41-21 lead at the break.
There was no quit in the Hatters though. Fueled by a career high 13 points from freshman B.J. Glasford, Stetson turned a 27-point early second half deficit into just 15 points midway through the second. A conventional three-point play by Glasford made it 63-48 with 10 minutes remaining.
On this night, though, FGCU was just too good. The defending league champions finished strong for the 77-55 victory and advanced to Thursday's semifinals to take on visiting ETSU.
Chase Fielder led all players with 17 points for FGCU, while Thompson finished with 16 points, including two crucial three-pointers in the first half to spark an Eagle run. Eric McKnight added 15, while Jamail Jones chipped in with 10.
Point guard Brett Comer put forth a great all-around game, totaling nine points, nine assists, and a game high seven rebounds.
Stetson was led by Glasford's 13. Senior Hunter Miller added 12 points and two steals, while senior Willie Green finished with 10 points and four rebounds.
Those seniors were really hurting," Williams said of the atmosphere in the locker room after the game. "They wanted to win. I hugged each one of them and told them all how proud I was of them."

PITTSBURGH - It was a typical Steelers-Bal-timore Ravens game Sunday night.
Neither team was able to muster much offense, the defenses delivered big hits and didn't allow many points, and several players left the game bruised and battered.
And, in what also has become the norm, the Steelers couldn't deliver a victory with starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger out of the game.

Byron Leftwich gets sacked by the Ravens defense.
Ben Roethlisberger watches from the sideline.
The Ravens strengthened their lead in the AFC North Division, improving to 8-2, by stopping the Roethlisberger-less Steelers, 13-10, at Heinz Field. The Steelers had their four-game winning streak snapped and fell to 6-4.
"Tough football game - nip and tuck,'' Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said. "The difference is obviously that we didn't find a significant play, particularly in the waning moments and in any of the three phases to be the difference, to put points on the board and allow us to get out of the stadium with the win.''
The Steelers offense looked helpless at times with Byron Leftwich under center and minus Roethlisberger and receiver Antonio Brown. Leftwich completed less than 50 percent of his passes (18-of-39) and finished with a quarterback rating of 51.3.
The running game provided a little help with the rotation of Jonathan Dwyer and Rashard Mendenhall gaining 88 yards on 23 carries. But the Steelers were unspectacular on third down, converting just five of 17 chances against a Ravens defense that was ranked 28th out of 32 in the NFL and was without leader Ray Lewis.
"We didn't execute on third downs as we could have,'' Steelers left tackle Max Starks said. "We missed little assignments and had some mistakes, more so than what [the Ravens] did in this game.''
The Steelers defense delivered a quality performance by holding the Ravens to just 200 total yards and stopping them on 11-of-14 third-down chances. Baltimore's offense only scored six points, and both of the field goals came after the Steelers offense committed turnovers.
But as well as the Steelers defense played, Pittsburgh's special teams unit gave up the big play of the game by allowing Baltimore's Jacoby Jones to return a punt 63 yards for a score in the first quarter.
The touchdown by Jones was his third of the season and second in the last two weeks.
"Our special teams guys are upset about it,'' Steelers linebacker Larry Foote said. "We will look at it tomorrow and go to work.''
The Steelers offense actually got off to a good start and wasted little time putting points on the board. They received the opening kickoff and immediately gained 42 yards when Baltimore cornerback Cary Williams interfered on a deep pass to Mike Wallace.
After a 7-yard David Gilreath run on an end-around, Leftwich escaped out of the pocket and outran Terrell Suggs down the right sideline, splitting two defenders and stumbling into the end zone for a 31-yard scoring run.
The Ravens, though, cut their deficit to 7-3 a little later on a Justin Tucker 26-yard field that was set up by a Wallace fumble that Baltimore's Ed Reed scooped up and returned 17 yards to the Steelers' 12-yard line.
The Ravens then gained a 10-7 advantage before the first quarter ended when Jones fielded Drew Butler's punt, sprinted up the middle and outran Butler to the end zone.
"They did a nice job,'' Tomlin said. "They double-viced our gunners there, and when they do that, the tackle has to come from the core of the punt formation and it didn't. But nice execution by them - obviously a significant football play.''
The Ravens missed a chance to build on their lead at the beginning of the second quarter when Tucker was wide right on a 41-yard field-goal attempt, and the Steelers trailed by three points at halftime.
A promising Steelers drive at the beginning of the third quarter was abruptly ended when Baltimore's Corey Graham picked off Leftwich in Ravens territory. The Ravens didn't waste the opportunity, and Tucker's 39-yard field goal extended their lead to 13-7.
The Steelers offense seemed to gain some momentum near the end of the third quarter. Backed by strong runs from Jonathan Dwyer and a 31-yard play in which Leftwich connected with Emmanuel Sanders and Reed was called for a helmet-to-helmet hit, the Steelers marched 80 yards and cut their deficit to 13-10 with a 22-yard Shaun Suisham field goal.
The Steelers settled for the field goal after they just missed a touchdown when Wallace couldn't get both of his feet inbounds in the end zone on a 4-yard pass.
"I thought it was good,'' Leftwich said. "I thought it was a touchdown when I let it go.''
But the Steelers never got into scoring position again, having two fourth-quarter drives ended near midfield by Ravens sacks. The Steelers, out of timeouts, couldn't pull out a miracle when they had the ball with one minute remaining in the game and lost for the fifth time to the Ravens with Roethlisberger on the sideline.
"I think it's two teams that play very similar styles,'' Ravens coach John Harbaugh said. "They're two very rugged teams. They're always two good defenses. We're still in that category now. It's a great rivalry.''
The rivalry will continue in two weeks when the teams meet again in Baltimore. Whether or not Roethlisberger will be able to play in that game is still questionable.
The Steelers play in Cleveland next Sunday.
"We are just focused on correcting our mistakes from tonight and getting back on the field next Sunday and getting a win,'' Steelers tight end Heath Miller said.

Viva Palestina is a campaign that seeks to send aid convoys to Gaza. Organized by then-British parliamentarian George Galloway, a far-left anti-Zionist and antiwar activist, Viva Palestina sent three successful convoys to Gaza in 2009-2010.
The latest convoy, an international effort with activists from a variety of countries, visited Gaza in January 2010. The convoy, dubbed "Lifeline 3," left London on December 6, 2009, and traveled through several countries in the Middle East on its way to the Gaza border crossing in Egypt. Large rallies to welcome the activists were held at various stops in the Middle East and representatives of Hamas spoke at rallies in Jordan and Lebanon, praising the activists and thanking them for their courage.
This is the latest example of close relations between Viva Palestina activists and Hamas. The first convoy, which traveled from the UK last February, donated cash and vehicles to representatives of the Hamas government in Gaza. The second convoy, which left from the U.S., met with Hamas officials, including Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, during their trip in July.
The third Viva Palestina convoy consisted of approximately 500 activists who brought 200 vehicles full of aid and medical supplies. Though the convoy had initially planned to enter Gaza on December 28, to mark the anniversary of the start of the Gaza war, the convoy was delayed on several occasions by Egyptian authorities who denied them entry into Egypt from Jordan and forced them to circle back and enter Egypt through Syria.
Upon the convoy's arrival in Egypt on January 3, Egyptian authorities announced that they would not allow approximately 60 of the convoy's vehicles to enter Gaza and suggested that the vehicles be sent to Gaza through the Israeli border instead. Violent clashes broke out between the activists and Egyptian riot police, and at least 20 of the activists suffered injuries. One Egyptian border security guard was killed by a Palestinian sniper from Gaza.
The convoy entered Gaza, without 60 of its vehicles, on January 6. While in Gaza, members of the convoy reportedly met with Hamas officials and donated the aid they had brought to a non-governmental organization called the Central Council of Charities.
Convoy leader George Galloway, who had repeatedly spoken out against the Egyptian government for delaying the convoy, was barred from Egypt upon returning from Gaza and was declared "persona non grata." A Foreign Ministry statement confirmed that he will not be allowed into Egypt again because of "incitement."
Despite this setback, Galloway has pledged to continue sending Viva Palestina convoys to Gaza. He indicated that a fourth convoy featuring President Hugo Chavez is in the works.

Ariel Winter's mother was denied a request Wednesday to curtail her older daughter's temporary guardianship of the Modern Family star.
The Associated Press reports that Senior Court Judge Michael Levenas stood by his March 29 order allowing Shanelle Gray guardianship over the 15-year-old until Oct. 16. The order stemmed from court documents alleging that Chrisoula Workman physically and emotionally abused her daughter.
Workman has denied the allegations, claiming that the trouble began when she voiced her disapproval over Winter's relationship with actor Cameron Palatas.
The judge said that he had yet to see evidence that Workman had repaired her relationship with her teenage daughter, who has been in her sister's care since October last year, when shocking allegations surfaced in court documents.
An attorney for Winter's sister told the judge last year that Workman "slapped, hit, pushed" her daughter and deprived her of food. Winter obtained a restraining order against her mom, who denied the allegations of abuse.
"I'm the one being abused here," Workman told the AP Wednesday. "I'm doing this for all stage mothers. This could happen to any of them."
The trial concerning whether Gray's guardianship will be made permanent is scheduled for Sept. 16.

In Avast 2016, the Avast EasyPass feature has been replaced with Avast Passwords. For more information about this new passwords management tool, refer to the following articles:
To migrate your EasyPass data across to Avast Passwords, refer to the following article:
|Avast EasyPass: Frequently Asked Questions - Passcards and Identities
|Filling Forms from Identities or Passcards does not work as expected. Why?
There are several reasons why form filling may not work as expected. This simple steps will help you to determine the cause of the problem and how to fix it.
|How do I memorize multi-step login sequences such as in Bank of America?
Using several passcard - one passcard for each step the login sequence.
|How do I make Avast EasyPass to Login in new tab window in multitab web browser such as Internet Explorer 7, 8 or Firefox?
Multitab web browsers do not have a mechanism to tell them to start navigation in the new tab.
|I filled in some fields manually and Avast EasyPass fills them in again. How can I avoid this?
There are two ways:
|A form has names and e-mails of other people but Avast EasyPass fills my name and e-mail. What to do?
Let us use an example form:
Pulling selection over just a few fields (not all of them) can be done, but it requires some training. Start with the field caption (cover the caption too) and stop before the caption of the next field.
|How do I fill Shipping and Billing Address using Avast EasyPass?
Do the following:
|How can I enter several credit cards into one Identity?
Do the following:
|I see only the US in the list of countries in Identity. How do I change it to another country?
Form filling and field formatting rules are different for different countries, so Avast EasyPass Identities have different format and structure for different countries.
You should specify the Country of your Identity when you create this Identity, in the New Identity dialog. The list of countries that appears in Address tab of Identity contains only the Country for which Identity was created. So if you created a USA Identity, it will contain only USA in the list of countries.
If you want to change Country in the existing Identity, open Identity Editor and select 'Edit' > 'Country' > 'Your Country'. If your Country is not listed, select 'Other'. The 'Other Country' is good for countries for which Avast EasyPass does not know field formatting and form filling rules, it gives you the most generic Identity in which phone numbers are not formatted and which does not have any other country-specific field formatting.
When you change Country of existing Identity, some fields may lose their values because set of Identity fields is different for different world regions and formatting of these fields is different. Therefore you need to manually check the changed Identity and correct fields that were lost.
|My phone number is not filled correctly anymore. What should I do?
If you upgraded to a new version and your phone number does not fill correctly, please check your Identity and make sure that your phone number appears correctly. We change format of phone numbers from time to time, especially in foreign countries and conversion from older versions is not always automatic.
|Avast EasyPass made a mistake when filling a form. How come?
The Avast EasyPass intellect is good but it has not yet matched the power of human intellect. So Avast EasyPass can make mistakes when filling forms. First, download the latest Avast EasyPass version and see if the problem persists. If it does, please send the address (URL) of the form you tried to fill out and a description of what exactly was not filled to Avast support.
|Identity Editor shows only 5 custom fields. How do I get more?
As you fill custom fields, Avast EasyPass will add more fields. New empty fields are added to always maintain 5 new fields. Addition of new empty fields happens when you click 'Apply (Diskette)' button in Editor or when you close and reopen Identity.
|Login command does not login into the site automatically. What should I do?
Try resaving Passcard, as position or identification of controls may have changed and Avast EasyPass cannot find the right button. The best way to do it is to fill forms from Passcard and then click 'Login' button while holding ALT ( ALT + SHIFT + Click in Firefox). This will force AutoSave.
|I forgot my Master Password. Can I recover it?
You cannot. The whole point of Passcard and Identity security is that only the person who knows the Master Password can use Passcards and Identities protected by this password. If you forgot your Master Password (or if you do not remember creating one but Avast EasyPass requests it from time to time) then the only course of action is to remove all Passcards and Identities protected by Master Password and then remove Master Password itself. In 'Options' > 'Security' click 'Set Master Password, Mass Protect/Unprotect' button, click 'I forgot it!' button and follow the instructions.
|If somebody steals my Avast EasyPass Passcard files, can they get into my accounts?
If you password-protect all sensitive Passcards and Identities and then it will be very difficult. Specifically, all password-protected Passcards and Identities are stored in files that are encrypted by your Master Password using AES, BlowFish or 3DES. So a person who stole your computer or password files, will have to break these encryption algorithms in order to get your passwords from Passcards.
As long as you observe these rules, it should be very hard to use the stolen info:
|I entered Master Password and now Avast EasyPass opens all password-protected Passcards not asking for Master Password?
After you enter Master Password it is cached in memory, so that you do not have to enter it all the time. You can tell Avast EasyPass to "forget" the cached password by clicking the Logoff button (see below). Or you can tell Avast EasyPass to Auto-Forget Master Password after a period of inactivity in Options > Security.
|Why Robot icon wears sunglasses from time to time?
When you entered Master Password and Avast EasyPass has it cached in memory, Avast EasyPass TaskBar Icon and Avast EasyPass Toolbar Icon will turn into a stylized Robot with sunglasses. Robot with Sunglasses shows that you are logged in to Avast EasyPass and you do not need to enter Master Password anymore. Robot without Sunglasses means that you are logged out from Avast EasyPass and when you need to open protected Passcard or Identity, Master Password will be requested.
|How can I make sure that nobody can use my Passcards when I need to step out?
Make Avast EasyPass forget the cached Master Password by clicking Logoff on the toolbar. You may also use Auto-Logoff option that makes Avast EasyPass purge the cached Master Password after a period of inactivity.
When the 'Logoff' button is enabled, it means that Avast EasyPass has your Master Password cached in memory. When this button is disabled then Avast EasyPass has no passwords cached.
|How are my Identities and Passcards encrypted?
Your Identities and Passcards are encrypted using AES, BlowFish, RC6 or 3DES algorithm and the encryption / decryption key is generated from the Master Password. This encryption method makes your data very secure and even if hackers come into possession of your Identity and Passcard files, they will have to crack one of these encryption algorithm without knowing the key which is considered impossible. By default AES encryption is used.
|What is the relationship between the Default Password from Identity and Passwords stored in Passcards?
There is no relationship. They all play different roles:
|How do I tell Avast EasyPass not to password-protect all my new Passcards?
Open the Options dialog, go to Security tab and un-check 'Password-Protect New Passcards'. Then Avast EasyPass will not offer to password-protect newly saved Passcards.
|I need no password protection for my Identities and Passcards. How do I get rid of Master Password?
You need to get rid of Master Password completely:
|How do I copy Avast EasyPass with all its data from one computer to another computer?
In 3 easy steps:
|How do I get back to the default Avast EasyPass settings?
Yes, you may have changed some setting(s), forgotten what they were and now Avast EasyPass does not work well. The best way to fix this is to reset all setting to their default values. Open the Options dialog and click 'Set Defaults'.
|Avast EasyPass cannot save Passcards or Identities saying that "Access is Denied". What to do?
Avast EasyPass works fine with Microsoft Windows Vista & Windows 7. However given that these operating systems do not allow Internet Explorer browser to write any user files and Avast EasyPass is a component of the web browser, we have to set permissions for Passcard files to the special level that makes them writeable to Internet Explorer and therefore Avast EasyPass.
Setting of Passcard permissions occur when:
Avast EasyPass itself maintains correct permission when writing user data files (passcards, etc) but if you modify any Avast EasyPass data files using external means such as restoring passcards from backup, or copying them to Avast EasyPass user data folder using Windows Explorer, this would make them read-only to the browser again. So whenever you bring in passcard files from outside to Avast EasyPass on Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows 7, you should run 'Avast EasyPass' > 'Options' > 'User Data' > 'Set Correct File Permissions'.
If you transferred Passcard and Identity files to CD-R or CD-RW or ZIP disk or any other medium used for backup then it is likely that Microsoft made these files Read-Only. So when you transfer backed up files back to your hard disk then Avast EasyPass cannot write to it. Open Windows Explorer, examine Properties of every *.RFT and *.RFP file and uncheck Read-Only flag.
|How can I remove all my Passcards and Identities?
Check box 'Remove all Passcards, Identities, Safenotes' when uninstalling Avast EasyPass.
|I used Roboform until now. How to get my data from Roboform to Avast EasyPass?
RoboForm user data are fully compatible with Avast EasyPass, as it is the same format. In order to get your data into Avast EasyPass, select the current file where you want to store your user data, or you can move it to your current user data folder, i.e.:
There is no limits on the data you can save and/or restore, it is unlimited.

on December 9, 2012 - 8:29 AM
, updated December 9, 2012 at 12:55 PM
Salvatore "Sam" Trusello was pretty healthy for a man of 86.
Mentally, he was still sharp. He wasn't on any medication. And the way he was going, his daughters thought he could easily live another 10 years.
Now, the World War II veteran and retired Niagara Falls baker is fighting for his life, after his 87-year-old roommate severely beat him with a 2½-pound magnet.
"His body has sustained such physical damage, we don't know if he can survive it," daughter Lisa Trusello Snow said Saturday.
Trusello remains in critical condition in Erie County Medical Center, following the attack in a Town of Tonawanda adult-care facility nearly two weeks ago.
The accused attacker, identified as Chester Rusek, was arrested on first-degree assault charges and sent to the Erie County Holding Center in lieu of $10,000 bail.
Trusello's family is left with no answers. "It's devastating to our family, not only that this happened to him, but that it happened at a place you expect to be secure and safe," Trusello Snow said by phone from her home in California.
"This never should have happened under any circumstances," she said. "I'm not placing blame, but this should have never happened."
The assault occurred at about 9:30 a.m. Nov. 26 in the room the two men shared at Kenwell, located at 3456 Delaware Ave.
The 2½-pound magnet was tied to a string, which Rusek repeatedly swung at Trusello in his bed, police said.
Then, Rusek – who uses a walker – went down the hall and told an attendant to get medical help for Trusello.
Rusek believed Trusello was stealing from him, investigators said.
"I didn't want to kill him," Rusek later told police. "I just wanted to get even."
Trusello's daughter doesn't believe there was any theft.
"No, that's not my dad," she said. "My dad mostly gets along with everyone there. He had no interest in anyone's possessions, belongings or money."
Trusello has been at different senior care facilities since 2000, when he could no longer climb the stairs at home and needed extra help caring for himself, his daughter said.
He lived in two facilities in Niagara Falls – first, Heritage Manor Nursing Home, then Niagara Geriatric Center – before being moved to Kenwell in September, his daughter said.
"He frankly liked Kenwell, before this happened," Trusello Snow said. "He was doing well."
Trusello – who gets around with the use of a walker – started with a different roommate on the second floor of the building, but when he couldn't get out quickly enough during a fire drill, he was moved into a room with Rusek, she said.
That was two months ago.
While investigators said they know of no problems between Trusello and Rusek, Trusello's family is suspicious.
"I would be willing to bet there was a history on this individual," Trusello Snow said. "I don't believe this individual woke up one day and went seriously violent."
Kenwell has declined to comment on the case, citing federal health privacy laws. The facility released a prepared statement Friday that said it was a licensed adult-care home that follows state regulations.
Trusello Snow said she hasn't gotten many specifics from the facility either, but the state Health Department has opened an investigation.
"Something failed," Trusello Snow said. "Something went wrong."
The family first heard about the attack when Trusello's other daughter, Mary – who lives in the area – stopped by Kenwell to visit her father that morning.
He already had been taken to the hospital, where Mary and Trusello's sister have been visiting him since.
The blows from the magnet struck Trusello on his head, face, chest and wrist. All 10 fingers were broken, as were several ribs.
He uses a breathing tube in the hospital and is now on kidney dialysis as a result of his injuries from the assault, his daughter said.
"The next step for him will be to see if he recuperates enough to go into a skilled nursing facility for a period of time," Trusello Snow said, "and then we'll take it from there."
She talked a little about her father.
One of five kids, Trusello was born and raised in Niagara Falls, and he served in the Army at the end of World War II.
He earned a bachelor's degree in history from the University of Buffalo.
He loved to travel. During the summer months, Trusello took his wife and two daughters to places around the world, including England, France, India, Russia and Australia.
He and his siblings ran Trusello's Bakery, the business that his father started in Niagara Falls in the 1920s.
In fact, she said, her father was the last Trusello to bake bread at the Niagara Falls fixture when it closed in the 1990s.
His wife, Ida, died in 1991, after the couple had been married more than 30 years.
As Trusello Snow makes plans to get to Buffalo, she is consumed by thoughts that so many others have while caring for their elderly parents.
"I wish there were more alternatives for people that are far away, or don't have family close by, or who can't afford the high-end, upscale assisted-living facility," she said.

4 Positive Trends the Internet Doesn't Get Enough Credit For
#2. You're Making People Accountable for Injustice
Whitney Curtis/Getty Images News
Recently a Delta Gamma sorority sister at the University of Maryland sent an email threatening to "cunt punt" each of the other members of her sorority if they kept insisting on being "weird" and "boring." More recently, a University of Arizona student attended a sexual assault awareness event on campus with a sign that said "You Deserve Rape." Even more recently than that, wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins Mike Wallace tweeted that he couldn't believe NBA center Jason Collins would want to be gay when there were all those beautiful women running around. These stories probably aren't news to you because each of them spent around 24 hours clogging your Facebook and Twitter feeds.
The reason everyone posts and reposts these stories is because pouncing on discrimination is one of our favorite new Internet hobbies, even when that injustice is happening thousands of miles away from us at a university we've never cared about before. If it wasn't for Facebook and Twitter, these would never even be news stories at all, but we've all poured a lot of hours into meticulously honing social media into a weapon that we can aim at injustice, and it's a weapon we love to use because it satisfies our itch for self-righteousness.
Patti McConville
"That's it, now point it right at those Dove soap ads that reinforce chauvinistic concepts of beauty."
While the Internet's constant insistence on political correctness can sometimes be grating, knowing that there are entire communities of people holding bigots, sexists, and assholes in general accountable is comforting. It was the Internet that refused to let the Steubenville rape disappear, and it was the Internet that wasn't willing to just move on when Amanda Todd was bullied into suicide. Every day we force each other to be more self-aware and make smarter choices, or else risk suffering the wrath of millions. But more importantly, we're making each other better people.
I'm certainly willing to slog through all the outraged posts about the Onion making a bad joke or Justin Bieber making a naive, adolescent mistake about the Holocaust, as long as it means that the same people aren't letting Todd Akin get away with suggesting that women can't get pregnant from rape unless they're secretly enjoying it. That's a tradeoff I'm happy to make.
#1. You're Making Generosity the Standard
Here, watch this video of a woman playing with a phone and faceplanting into a fountain.
Regardless of whether that lady was texting, updating Facebook, or trying to become foursquare mayor of K.B. Toys, she represents our greatest fears about technology: She loses sight of conspicuous threats in the real world because she's lost touch with everything around her. Thankfully, instead of getting turned to paste by a bus or stepping off of a cliff, we can all laugh because she only falls into some unsanitary mall water. Still, all the doom and gloom theorists who always warned us about our eager abandonment of real life in favor of a virtual existence finally have this video to point to and scream, "I told you so!" Or at least they could if their grandson happened to be home and willing to load the YouTube for them.
But anyone who panics that technology is isolating us from the real world and breeding antisocial behavior that tears at the fibers of society clearly has never seen how shockingly kind and supportive the online community is every day. Granted, there's a lot of negativity in forums and comment sections, but it's outweighed, or at the very least equalized, by the overwhelming philanthropy and selflessness everywhere else. People can find organ donors on Facebook, save lost dogs through Twitter, or fund hundreds of thousands of new businesses or artistic endeavors through Kickstarter. Had someone told me 10 years ago that they were building a website that would allow strangers to ask the Internet at large for thousands of dollars to fund the creation of a goddamn calendar of cats, I would have said it couldn't possibly work. But I underestimated the generosity of everyone with a computer.
All of that is possible because the heart of the Internet is altruism. It wasn't founded with a business plan, it was founded as a way for people to connect with one another, and that sentiment still rings true within the community that uses it. In one of the most uplifting TED Talks you'll ever see, Jonathan Zittrain explains how sites like Wikipedia can function as the eminent source of information online while simultaneously being exclusively crowdsourced by anyone who wants to post because the World Wide Web is dependent on random acts of kindness.
This whole system works because there's an unspoken expectation online that you make some effort to do good, and while sometimes people get confused about where to focus that good intention, the fact that everyone is so eager to help at all is heartening. So keep up the good work, [your name here], I'm sorry that I called you awful, especially when you're already planning to donate so handsomely to Michael Swaim and Cody Johnston's brilliant Kickstarter campaign, My Temple.
You can follow Soren's world-changing tweets here or his frankly mediocre Tumblr here.

[Lysacek] still is scheduled to compete at Skate America Oct. 18-20, but that seems less and less likely, even if Carroll hasn't ruled it out.
He is not now at the (physical) level he will need to be for Skate America, Carroll said. Im anxious to see how he is doing today.
Today the USOC announced that Lysacek will be one of the featured Sochi hopefuls at its 100 Day Countdown event -- on Oct 29, barely a week after Skate America.
More than forty athletes are expected to participate. Of the ten mentioned by name in the announcement, Lysacek is the only figure skater.
Staged in NYC's Time Square, the event will include "an ice rink for curling, figure skating, speedskating and hockey demonstrations."
BTW, this part sounds cool in general :
"At the event, Pilobolus and the USOC will premiere a film on the iconic Times Square billboards that celebrates human achievement through the sports of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games."
Assume that some of our favorite skaters will be included among those seen on the huge Times Sq. billboards. What a thrill for them and for us.

The race for the Buffalo-based 141st District Assembly seat pits incumbent Crystal D. Peoples-Stokes against Ricky T. Donovan Sr.
Peoples-Stokes, first elected to the seat in 2002, is running on the Democrat and Working Families lines, while Donovan is on the Republican and Independence party tickets.
If re-elected, Peoples-Stokes said she will continue to focus on economic development, cultural and heritage tourism, health care and education.
"These are critically important," she said. "The entire medical corridor is in my district. … I think the future of our economy in Western New York is based on [three] things. One is higher-education institutions. The others are health care, as well as cultural tourism."
Peoples-Stokes noted that she supported UB 2020 legislation and helped secure $120,000 for the Michigan Street African-American Heritage Corridor Commission.
"Cultural tourism is critical to building the economy of Western New York," she said. "We are hopeful the Michigan Street Commission report from the consultants will be out soon and approved soon by the City Council so we can get $1 million allocated. Once [the corridor] is fully developed, it will spur additional economic development like restaurants and hotels."
Peoples-Stokes also said she plans "to put a lot of effort to ensure we can get some type of continuing care for Buffalo's senior community" at the Kensington Heights site, once the former public housing buildings are completely demolished.
The former Erie County legislator lives in Buffalo with her husband, daughter and grandson.
Donovan's primary concerns center around illegal immigration in the state. Donovan said he "wants to help legal immigrants," but policies that benefit illegal aliens need to be changed.
A main issue he would focus on, if elected, is revamping college loans for "New York State Americans" at an interest-free rate.
A corrections officer at Albion Correctional Facility for the past seven years, Donovan said that another of his issues is "immigrants who are incarcerated being paid for on New York taxpayers' dime."
"I suggest we charge the country [the incarcerated immigrant] came from," he said.
He also would like to do away with tax breaks that go to immigrants.
"Why should we give [immigrant store owners] tax breaks?" he said. "Put Americans first. Give us homegrown Americans the opportunities before immigrants."
Donovan said he also would like to see a state-of-the-art trade school come to Buffalo and wants to see electric power from Niagara Falls become more beneficial to Western New Yorkers.
"Why does electricity go from Niagara Falls to New York City and back here? Electricity should come here, which gives us low rates and brings jobs," Donovan said. "We have to unshackle ourselves from downstate."
Donovan has been a state committee member for the Independence Party since 1998. From 2009 until 2011, he was the vice chairman of Erie County's Independence Party, and he recently became executive director of the county party, he said.
A military veteran who served from 1977 to 1988 in the Army, Army Reserve and National Guard, he lives in Lovejoy with his wife. They have four adult children.

A low-level, migrant archaeologist who works on Cultural Resource Management(CRM) projects and survives on a relatively low wage (for someone with a BA) plus per diem. Low wages and transient lifestyle are often overcome by living in their pick-up truck or camping. The term is generally pejorative when used by non-professionals but is used pridefully by archaeologists as a mark of having paid one's dues and having done true dirt archaeology (as opposed to academic archaeology) for dirt pay. It is considered a rite of passage.

MARTINSBURG - Excitement was in the air Saturday morning when more than 100 Washington Redskins' fans transformed the Berkeley Senior Services dining room into a sea of burgundy and gold - in honor of the alumni players who'd come for a special celebrity sports breakfast.
Many fans were wearing shirts and jerseys with the team logo and some even displayed special tattoos of their favorite football team.
And the youngest fan, just six weeks old, even had a special bib for the occasion.

It was nearly standing room only Saturday morning when the Washington Redskins Alumni were featured at a Berkeley Senior Services fundraiser. Inwood resident Leonard Glascoe (left) chats with organizational executive director Jerry Olsen and legendary kicker Mark Moseley (right) after he autographed a football and hat for him.
Washington Redskins Alumni Executive Director Jerry Olsen smiled as he watched fans chat with well-known former players including Ron Saul, Roy Jefferson and Ron McDole as well as former team trainer Bubba Tyer.
Success was especially important to Olsen, a local resident and Berkeley Senior Services board member, since the proceeds will be used by that organization to assist the area's elderly population.
The third event of its kind locally, last year's breakfast raised about $5,000, Olsen said.
He said the nonprofit organization consists of former players living in the metropolitan Washington and northern Virginia area who volunteer their time to help raise money for worthy causes.
Guest speaker Mark Moseley, legendary kicker and former NFL MVP, also spent part of his time autographing personal momentos for fans, including Inwood resident Leonard Glascoe.
Happy to now have a football and hat signed by Moseley, Glascoe said he was also excited when Saul let him wear his Super Bowl ring.
"I'm a huge Redskin fan, so this has been really great. I've been very impressed," he said.
Moseley, smiling as he recalled his 14 years with the Redskins, said it was a "great opportunity and I made the big kicks. I didn't make all the kicks, but I made the ones that counted."
Redskins' fans are like no others, and Moseley said he grew to love the area so much that he made it his home.
"Once you are a Redskin, you're always a Redskin," Moseley said.
"The fans are just so great. I've been retired now 25 years, and I guess as many - maybe more - people know me now than when I played. And we as players are here trying to give that back," he said.
Redskins' alumni players attend hundreds of charitable events annually and feel strongly about doing what they can to help others, said Moseley, who also serves as a national spokesperson for "Stop the Silence" which is working to stop sexual abuse of children and bring attention to the issue.
Hagerstown resident Rick Parks listened to Moseley as they moved through the breakfast line and couldn't have been happier to see the legendary football player in person, he said.
Parks said he and his family were long time fans, especially since the team has had so many outstanding players in the past several years.
Long time fan Judy Bryant, an Inwood resident who lived in Arlington, Va., for 40 years, was happy to see Moseley in person after having watched him play for so long.
And she may have given him the ultimate compliment.
"I just want you to know that I have been watching you a long time, and you were always a great football player. But now you are also just getting better and better looking every year too," Bryant said.

Get Into Aqua Jogging
Give Aqua Jogging a go and you'll get all the benefits of running but with less impact on your body.
You've never experienced running like this – as well as being ankle friendly, aqua jogging offers you a better workout with less effort.
Aqua jogging has lots of benefits that its land-based counterpart can't offer.
- Water is denser than air that you work harder and burn more calories
- The pressure of the water helps your heart out so you get the same intensity of exercise at a lower heart rate.
In short, better results for less work. And with aqua jogging there's no pressure to 'go fast' with its extra stress on your joints.
So if you are a runner already and you're recovering from an injury then try aqua jogging to complement your training routine and become an aqua jogger as well.
What can I expect?
An Aqua Jogging class will last about an hour. A qualified instructor will take you through the basics, such as how to fit your equipment, and how to get the most out of your workout.
You'll use your arms, hips, and legs continuously, for a great cross-training workout.
Once you know the basics you can aqua jog at any time without needing an instructor.
What equipment do I need?
Your pool will provide you with everything you need, just take your normal swimwear. You can expect to use two pieces of equipment:
- Water shoes: These are key to getting the most out of your workout. Bare feet can work but won't give you the necessary resistance and motion.
- Flotation belt: If you are deep water aqua jogging then you will need a flotation belt to keep your torso partially above the water while you run.
How do I get involved?
- Use our Pool Finder to locate your nearest pool – all you need is your postcode – and ask them about aqua jogging classes.

When first asked to serve on the South Carolina Commission on Ethics Reform, I hesitated. I have served on well-intentioned committees only to see countless hours of study and work amount to few actual results. I then learned that Gov. Haley had put together a group of independent, highly experienced individuals with nothing at stake in the results — except to restore trust and integrity in our government. I learned that the governor had committed her full support to the commission's recommendations regardless of her personal views. I agreed to serve with the hope that my training as an attorney, as well as my former experiences as a Marine Corps officer, a federal prosecutor and a state legislator, would prove useful to the work of the commission.
In 2002, before I sought election to the House of Representatives, I was concerned about whether I could continue making a living as a lawyer while undertaking the demanding responsibilities of being a part-time state legislator. Much of my law practice involved representing private clients before state regulatory agencies, as well as representing governmental agencies. I wanted to comply fully with all legislative ethics rules — both their letter and their intent — and to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. But I also wanted to make sure that I could still earn a fair living as a lawyer, as I had been doing for many years before seeking political office. Before filing for office, and then after election, I sought and obtained ethics advice from House ethics attorneys about the do's and don'ts of serving as a lawyer/legislator. I learned that there were various areas of ethics laws that were not as clear as they should be, that disclosure was a fundamental principle of our ethics laws, and that obtaining clear guidance on ethics compliance, as a sitting member, could be subject to unnecessary political influence.
With that background, I committed to the work of the Commission on Ethics Reform. I wanted us to develop strong recommendations that would make our ethics rules clear and easy to follow, require greater disclosure of interests that have the potential to be conflicts of interest, and make ethics compliance decisions less subject to political influence. All 23 recommendations presented by the commission accomplish these objectives. We recommended that ethics laws should be enforced equally and independently for all public officials, including members of the General Assembly, by a single statewide ethics commission. This one change could remove the potential for improper politics — whether favorable or unfavorable — from the enforcement of ethics laws, and go a long way to restoring the public's trust in its elected officials. The commission's recommendations also include various specific recommendations to make ethics requirements easier to understand and follow.
The commission also offered strong recommendations on income disclosure. We recommended that public officials disclose all sources of private income and, for certain specific categories, the actual amounts of income. It may be impossible to identify every specific situation where an actual conflict of interest can arise at all levels of government. But greater disclosure promotes true transparency, helps prevent conflicts of interest — actual and perceived — and restores public trust.
On the other hand, the commission was also concerned about the financial privacy of public officials and their family members because ethics laws apply not only to full-time state officials and part-time legislators, but also to numerous members of state boards and commissions and local governing bodies. We wanted to avoid unnecessary intrusions into private life that would discourage citizens from seeking public office. We debated at length whether fair public scrutiny required knowledge of how much money a part-time elected official makes from all work and investment sources. Ultimately, we recommended disclosure of all income sources, but only amounts of income from sources potentially related to official duties. These private sources include those that: 1) employ lobbyists, 2) contract with government agencies, or 3) are regulated by the official or agency.
We also broadened the reach of disclosure requirements by recommending that lobbyist registration and regulation apply to all levels of government, and not just to state government as is the case under current law, and by recommending full disclosure of fiduciary positions that a public official holds outside of his public duties.
Under current ethics laws, public officials do not have to disclose all sources of private income. They only have to disclose sources and amounts of income from governmental sources and, in the case of state legislators, sources and amounts of private income earned by representing clients before state agencies. Expanding the income disclosure requirements for public officials, their immediate family members and their businesses will give greater disclosure of a public official's interests and the potential for actual or perceived conflicts of interest. This transparency, at all levels of South Carolina government, can help restore the public's trust in our elected officials.
I join the other members of the Commission on Ethics Reform in urging the General Assembly to adopt the commission's recommendations, including the requirements for greater income disclosure.
