In this chapter, we're going to focus on the most powerful tool in After Effects to help refine your animations, the Graph Editor. First I'm going to clear my display by re-docking the Layer panel into the Comp panel and closing all my previous compositions. And if you have the files that came with this lesson, go ahead and open up Comp 03-Graph Editor*starter. I'm going to press 0 on the numeric keypad to RAM-preview this. It will take a while to cache up. And you might recognize this from the After Effects Apprentice: Basic Animation lesson. At this stage, we've entered all of our keyframes, but you might notice that the movements are a bit jerky. For example, the snowflake just kind of plops into place, the title comes up and just suddenly stops.
It could be refined, it could be more elegant, and that's what we're going to try to do in this chapter. I'll move ahead and stop the animation, do Command+A on Mac, Ctrl+A on Windows to select all my layers, and press U to reveal all of the keyframes. And note that all of the keyframes have this diamond icon. That diamond icon indicates a linear type keyframe. That reinforces why we're seeing such jerky animation. Linear keyframes have sudden starts, stops, and speed changes, and generally are not the most elegant animation you can create.
So let's refine them. I'm going to go ahead and open up the Graph Editor. The shortcut is to hold the Shift key and press F3, and initially I don't see anything. That's because I need various view preferences to decide what I do want to see. I'm going to go down here to choose which properties are shown, and for now I'm going to choose Show Animated Properties. That will show me everything that's keyframed or animating. Now a bunch of different lines and graphs appear. Currently it's showing all animated properties for all selected layers. I can go ahead and just select an individual layer to see just that layer's properties.
If I want to see more than one layer, I can Shift+click it to see that as well. But I'll go back to just Snowflake.mov for now. If there is a particular property you want to see all the time, regardless of whether or not the layer is selected, there is a nice little option called Graph Editor Sets. You can enable that also underneath this eyeball icon, underneath Show Graph Editor Set, and a set is enabled by clicking on this little graph icon between the animation stopwatch and the name of the property. Once you enable that, that set of parameters will always be visible, regardless of whether or not that layer is selected.
That's really good if you have a guide layer that has important timing that you want to synchronize other people to. You can leave it enabled all of the time, even as you work on other layers, but again, I'll just turn it off for now and select Snowflake.mov. You will notice that the parameters are color coded. For example, the Position values are in this pink color, this pink line, the Rotation is in this turquoise color--and there is its property graph--Opacity is in cyan-- there is its value--and then there is Scale. X is in red, Y is in green.
Since the two values are identical, the red graph is drawing on top of the green graph, and that's why you just see a red line over here in the Graph Editor. If I was to separate those by turning off the Constrain Proportions switch, I would see two independent graphs as their values diverge from each other. You can zoom and pan in time in the Timeline panel just as you would normally. For example, you can go ahead and move the corners of the Time navigator to look at just a segment of time and slide a segment of time through. I'll restore that.
I do have my little slider down here at the bottom to decide how much I'm zoomed in, and I can use the normal Plus or Minus keys to go ahead and zoom in and out, so that's pretty normal as well. Home and End keys still work as normal, and I still have my keyframe navigator. I can go ahead and move between the Position keyframes, move to the Rotation and keyframe, Opacity start keyframe, et cetera. Just be careful if you use the keyframe navigator for a property that isn't currently revealed; for example, I'll go to the next Snowstorm title Position keyframe, but because it's not actually selected, I can't see that keyframe. Select the layer.
Now, it makes a lot more sense. You can drag the Current Time Indicator, and again holding the Shift key makes it sticky, makes it want to snap to these different keyframes. And you can turn that snapping behavior on and off by clicking on this little magnet icon down at the bottom of the Graph Editor. And finally, if you come from using nonlinear editing systems, you can use the J and K keys to move earlier in time and back in time between keyframes. Another important thing you need to know about navigating the Graph Editor is how to zoom and pan in height to look at values.
A great default is to enable Auto-zoom graph height. That means it will always maximize the available height in your Timeline panel. I am going to go ahead and zoom on a smaller segment of time here. As I go ahead and pan around what time I'm looking at, you will see it automatically rescales as I'm looking at the smaller value range. I'll go back here and it rescales to show a wider value range. So the Auto Zoom behavior is really, really handy. On the other hand, if you find that this is getting in your way, you can turn that off and now manually pan around this.
One great shortcut is to hold down the Spacebar, then drag with your cursor. You can drag left and right in time and up and down and in the value range to see where your graphs are. If you have some specific values you want to focus on, temporarily hold down the Z key, the Zoom key, drag a marquee around the keyframes or value range you're interested in, release the mouse and the Z key, and it will automatically zoom to center that range. By the way, if you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, the scroll wheel will also move up and down the values in the Graph Editor.
If you hold down Option, it will also zoom in time. I'll double-click to see my whole Timeline again. One other really important zoom option, if you need to see even more resolution inside the Graph Editor, is the Tilde key. You might remember from After Effects Apprentice: Pre-Roll, the Tilde key maximizes a frame to take up the entire application window. This is where you get maximum resolution. However, it's at the cost of not seeing anything else, so personally I just leave things where they are. I just tap Tilde to go back to normal display, and I turn on the Auto Zoom Height to always maximize the amount of space I have available.
Next, let's get into what these different graphs actually mean and how to change what they're showing us.

A Comparative Guide to the Western States' Public Trust Doctrines: Public Values, Private Rights, and the Evolution Toward an Ecological Public Trust
Robin Kundis Craig
University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law
March 8, 2010
Ecology Law Quarterly, Vol. 37, No. 1, pp. 53-197, March 2010
FSU College of Law, Public Law Research Paper No. 369
This companion article to the Fall 2007 A Comparative Guide to the Eastern Public Trust Doctrines explores the state public trust doctrines - emphasis on the plural - in the 19 western states. In so doing, this Article seeks to make the larger point that, while the broad contours of the public trust doctrine, especially regarding state ownership of the beds and banks of navigable waters, have a federal law basis, the details of how public trust principles actually apply vary considerably from state to state. Public trust law, in other words, is very much a species of state common law. Moreover, as with other forms of common law, states have evolved their public trust doctrines in light of the particular histories, perceived needs, and perceived problems of each state.
This Article notes that, in the West, four factors have been most important in the evolution of state public trust doctrines: (1) the severing of water rights from real property ownership and the riparian rights doctrine; (2) subsequent state declarations of public ownership of fresh water; (3) clear and explicit perceptions of shortages of water, submerged lands, and environmental amenities; and (4) a willingness to raise water and other environmental issues to constitutional status and/or to incorporate broad public trust mandates into statutes. From these factors, two important trends in western states' public trust doctrines have emerged: (1) the extension of public rights based on states' ownership of the water itself; and (2) an increasing, and still cutting-edge, expansion of public trust concepts into ecological public trust doctrines that are increasingly protecting species, ecosystems and the public values that they provide.
The Article includes an extensive Appendix that summarizes each of the 19 states' public trust doctrines. These summaries include relevant constitutional provisions, statutory provisions, and cases.

Karachi: Top Pakistani spinner Saeed Ajmal can't wait for the much-anticipated tour of India next month as the late-bloomer has played just once before on the Indian soil.
"I started my international career late and I have got a chance to play just one match against India in their own backyard the 2011 World Cup semi-final at Mohali," Ajmal said.
"That is why I am eagerly looking forward to this tour as it will be a challenge bowling to the Indian batsmen in their own backyard," he said.
Ajmal, who began his international career at the age of 31, was among the probables when Pakistan last toured India in 2007 but couldn't make the final squad for any format of the game.
"I was disappointed then because every cricketer wants to play a proper series in India and prove his worth," he said.
"I didn't get a chance to play a full series in India because of the suspension of bilateral relations since 2007 but now finally I am getting my chance and it is exciting for me," he added.
Ajmal, who is the top bowler in the ICC one-day rankings and also among the top three in the Test and T20 rankings, has taken 122 wickets in 23 Tests, 109 wickets in 71 ODIs and another 69 in 48 T20s. In fact, batsmen around the world are still unable to figure out his doosra.
Ajmal said he hoped the tour would go ahead on schedule and he was preparing hard for it. "I am training hard although I missed some matches of the President's Trophy due to illness for which doctor had advised me rest. And the pitches also this time are more suited for pace bowlers in the tournament. But I am still working hard on preparing for the Indian tour," he said.
Ajmal said that he would relish the challenge of bowling to India's top batsmen. "To be a top bowler, one must always relish the challenge of doing battle with the world's best batsmen. Bowling to the Indians in the World Cup semi-final and in the Asia Cup was also a great experience for me and I learnt a lot," he said.
On playing in the Big Bash in Australia after the Pakistan board released three players on Monday. Ajmal said that he would be playing one match.
"Yes I will be going on December 6 to play one match for the Adelaide Strikers and will than return to prepare for the Indian tour," Ajmal said.

Did you get Stompeez, Dream Lites, or Pillow Pets?
Currently we only have 2 Pillow Pets, but the kids want the friggen Stompeez and Dream Lites! Will cost me $100 to get 2 of each!
Are the Dream lites worth it? I mean do they really work?
I saw the Stompeez at Family Dollar for 20 bucks. Try there.
They were the actual Stompeez, not imitation ones or anything.
my son has 9874985689863586 pillow pets but shows no interest in the other 2 things
I saw Stompeez at Fred Meyers for 20 bucks. And Pillow Pets too. But the Dream Lites were 29.99. Ugh.
I did not get them, but my kids want them soooo bad.
We have 1 pillow pet.
DD wants a pillow pet as well. They were just on sale at Dollar General for $7.50

Encryption does not make the representation opaque, strictly speaking. A representation is opaque when the attacker is not able to obtain the bits of the representation at all; not being able to decode the bits doesn't count, or at least should be called something else. Encrypted capabilities work by being sparse (if they were only encrypted but not sparse, then it would be possible to forge a random but valid capability). In the Monash system, this was done by XORing with a per-process mask, if I remember correctly, which is not a secure form of encryption. > see > http://comjnl.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/29/1/1 > > (Sorry, I have no idea whether that link is behind some kind of > firewall-implemented identity-based access control that filters on IP > addresses or something, in which case the "Full Text" link that I can > see might not be shown to others.

Today is October 1, 2016 -
Miketz 5763
Posted on March 23, 2011
by Helen Bennett
This week's Torah portion, Miketz, finds us in the middle of the Joseph story. After two years in Egyptian prison, Pharaoh calls on him to interpret confusing dreams. Joseph foretells that Egypt will experience seven years of abundance followed by seven years of famine. Pharaoh puts Joseph in charge of food collection during the prosperous years and then food distribution during the famine to reward him.
And so, as it turns out, Jacob (Joseph's father) is forced to send his sons (Joseph's brothers) down to Egypt during the famine to obtain food for the family. When the brothers approach Joseph in request for food, they do not recognize him, for he has changed his clothes and appearance to that of an Egyptian prince. While the brothers don't recognize their long lost brother, Joseph recognizes them. He makes them go back to their father in Canaan and bring back their youngest brother, Benjamin. After Jacob was convinced that his favorite son, Joseph, was killed from seeing his coat covered with blood, he took up favoring Benjamin. But, in order to attain food, the brothers told their father that Benjamin coming with them was the only way to get it. So, they return to Egypt with Benjamin.
In Egypt, the brothers get their food, but Joseph secretly put his silver goblet in Benjamin's sack, accusing them of theft. The parsha closes with Joseph holding Benjamin as a slave while letting the other brothers go free.
While looking at this parsha, I noticed how clothing had a major impact on the story. At the beginning of the Joseph story, Jacob believes that Joseph is dead based on his blood-covered clothing (a.k.a. the coat of many colors). Then, when the brothers come to Egypt for food, they totally don't recognize their brother just because of his new Egyptian clothing.
I think this brings up a very important issue that we are still struggling with today. Look at how easily people can be deceived by clothing. Today, we shouldn't believe that a person's clothing means everything about them, but then we shouldn't be so naïve and think that clothes don't mean anything. Most of the time, people wear clothes that they like and that express their personality. Other times though, people hide behind their clothes and try to change what outsiders think of them based on their mere appearance. It is always important to not assume things based solely on a person's exterior. At the same time, it is also important to be aware that others may be judging us on our clothing and appearance.

Who Would Have Thought?
Summer afternoon. Sisters swimming in the bay. Diving from a raft. Hitting bottom. Broken neck. Quadriplegia. Seventeen years old and life will never again be the same.
Who but God could have thought of this as anything but tragedy? Instead, through God's strength Joni Eareckson Tada has inspired tens of thousands. Her practical love and ministry through Joni and Friends has pointed people around the globe toward the God who is sovereign and in whose image we all are created, whatever abilities and disabilities we have.
She has told her story more fully in Joni, which is available as book or DVD. And perhaps you heard her speak some time ago with Larry King about her life–how God brought her into a warm personal relationship with himself through friends who treated her "as a person, not a cripple." In that video interview, she also talks about what that relationship means in her life now, for example when she doesn't have the strength or personal resources to face another day.
3 Responses to "Who Would Have Thought?"
i answered your monitor question on my blog, but just in case: i do think mac monitors are brighter and deal with colors better. that is not scientifically proven, just my experience.
Joni is a dear friend of mine – when I saw your 'disability' category, I had to see what was up…. to no surprise, there's precious Joni. :) She is an inspiration to us all.
That was a different thought track. I like your quality that you put into your writing . Please do continue with more like this.

Julia Roberts
Full Name: Julia Roberts
Hometown: Smyrna, GA
Relationship Status: Married to Danny Moder
One of America's biggest box-office draws, the Academy Award-winning actress' movies have earned over $2 billion in cash over the years, from Pretty Woman to Erin Brockovich.
Worth over $250 million, her salary per film is now in the $20 million range, making her one of the largest power players around.
Sidestepping the 80's "Brat Pack," the hitmaker's early role in Mystic Pizza was followed with an Oscar nomination for Steel Magnolias, and the prostitute-with-a-heart-of-gold Disney hit Pretty Woman.
Before settling down into her now relatively quiet lifestyle, Roberts grabbed media attention for her high-profile Hollywood love life.
Previously engaged to Kiefer Sutherland, she broke it off in the early 90's to run away with Jason Patric. She eloped with Lyle Lovett, divorcing him in 1995. She's also dated Matthew Perry, Daniel Day-Lewis, Liam Neeson and Benjamin Bratt, but is now happily and quietly married to cameraman Danny Moder. They have twins, Hazel Patricia and Phinnaeus Walter.

Learning how to pull off a manual can make your riding smoother, faster and more effortless. David Webster shows you how.
This skills series is designed to introduce and develop key trail riding skills that many find impossible to grasp or maybe have never even heard of. This is the stuff that good riders do without thinking, and what many of us do intermittently when we have that perfect day on our favourite trail.
Showcasing the best of
So, what's a manual?
Manuals are most easily described as non-pedalled wheelies. To be more accurate, they involve manually raising the front end of the bike so that the front wheel can avoid obstacles, dips and other assorted trail hazards – rather than lifting the wheel through pedalling, or not lifting it through at all.
The bottom line is that a correctly delivered manual will enable a rider to make seemingly effortless and flowing progress over the top of the terrain. That's got to be preferable to getting sucked down and into every root, rut and ditch, bouncing along from one near-disaster to the next.
Learning the manual
As we've said, the manual is one of the most useful MTB techniques to master – so let's cut to the chase and learn how you pull one.
First, find yourself a good car-free space with a decent surface and a flat to slightly uphill gradient (the uphill slope will naturally help you move your weight to the rear of the bike). Build up a brisk jog's worth of pace on the bike.
Once you are rolling at this pace, adopt the 'attack' position: pedals level, weight centred on the bike, two fingers covering the brakes, and looking ahead.
1] Set your weight slightly back from centre, straightening out your arms as you do. You're aiming to have the widest part of the saddle in contact with your inner thighs, thereby partially unweighting the front wheel.
2] Then, with straight arms, rock your weight dynamically forward, with the aim of loading weight onto the front of the bike.
3] Seamlessly, and with straight arms, rock your weight back. Aim to get the wheel a kerb's height clear of the floor.
4] Gently dabbing the rear brake will bring the front of the wheel down again.
Top tips
Always cover your back brake in case you feel the bike wanting to loop out backwards — gently dabbing the rear brake will bring the front of the bike down again. This manoeuvre should see you effortlessly bringing the front wheel up and off the floor; brute force and grunting tend to indicate poor technique. Remember, if it feels forced and ugly, then you're doing something wrong.
Set-up tips
How you can make learning manuals easier
- Flat pedals and good flat-pedal shoes inspire more confidence. Make sure you set your feet further forward on the pedal than normal to get the most traction from the pedal.
- Slightly lowered saddle heights make life easier. Bear in mind, though, that you'll ultimately need to be able to do this at the drop of a hat on climbs as well as descents.
- A combination of disc/V brakes with good modulation and feel, plus true wheels, is essential for consistent (non-grabby) braking. Make sure your levers are properly set for two-finger braking. If you have small hands, adjust the levers to their shortest reach.
- Riser bars and shortish stems (70mm or shorter) paired with relatively high front ends are easier to pop up into a manual, because the distribution of your body weight is already biased more towards the back of the bike.
- Any bike with short chainstays (tucking the back wheel tightly under the rider) will be easier to manual. Jump hardtails and similar bikes tend to be best, while full-suspension bikes make life a little harder.

On Friday, used-and-new car dealer Group 1 Automotive (NYSE: GPI ) announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to purchase all outstanding shares of Brazil's UAB Motors Paricipacoes in a stock-and-cash transaction worth approximately $145 million, or a bit over $200 million inclusive of UAB's $62 million in net non-floorplan debt.
Specifically, Group 1 will exchange 1.45 million of its own shares, plus $47.4 million in cash, for the target's shares.
Buying UAB, Group 1 will acquire two Toyota, four Nissan, two BMW, two BMW/Mini, three Renault, three Peugot, one Land Rover, and one Land Rover/Jaguar dealership -- 18 shops in all -- distributed among the Sao Paulo market and several other "key metropolitan markets" in the neighboring state of Parana. Group 1 estimates that the annual revenues generated by these businesses will be $650 million.
This results in a price-to-sales ratio of about 0.22 on the purchase, roughly equivalent to Group 1's own 0.2 P/S ratio. Group 1 additionally notes that the acquisition will be "modestly accretive" to earnings in 2013, adding anywhere from $0.03 to $0.05 per share, pro forma. The transaction is expected to close on or about Feb. 28.
Group 1 shares are down 0.7% on the news, at $67.24.

Before the Interstate
Howard Rosen, Ph.D.
Program Director
University of Wisconsin-Madison
President, Public Works Historical Society
Until the 1890s, road building in the United States was almost exclusively a local government responsibility. States only began to create highway departments, beginning with New Jersey, in 1892. By 1914 enough states had created highway departments to form the American Association of State Highway Organizations (AASHO). The basic premise of highway building at this time was that the state agencies, headed by engineers approved by the federal Bureau of Public Roads, would receive federal funds to plan, build and maintain roads (which the Bureau would inspect). Under the leadership of Thomas H. McDonald, Chief of the Bureau, AASHO became the key mechanism for maintaining the partnership between the federal and state road builders.
Oklahoma: I-35 in the Arbuckle Mountains both today and during initial construction in 1969 (inset). Photo by Oklahoma Department of Transportation. Used with permission from American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO).
For the most part, state highway departments focused on rural roads in the first half of the 20th century. "Getting out of the mud," building farm-to-market roads, was their primary focus. Not only were rural-dominated state legislatures unwilling to fund urban road building, states were prohibited by law from using federal-aid funds in cities. Yet as early as 1937, analyses of traffic on state highways showed that most "rural" traffic was in fact intercity traffic moving between large metropolitan areas. Urban congestion was a big problem before World War II and during the war the highways were allowed to deteriorate.
The Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1944, incorporating recommendations of the Interregional Highway Committee, approved the creation of an Interstate System, and gave for the first time urban arterials a permanent status in the federal-aid program. While the 1944 Act gave a legal basis to the Interstate, it did not provide the financial means for states to divert their resources to urban right-of-way acquisition and construction. With the economic expansion following World War II came increases in car and truck traffic that virtually choked the existing highway system. By 1950, cities in New England reported that 40 percent of trip time was being wasted in traffic jams. So while there were some examples of states getting involved in urban freeway construction (New York Thruway, Los Angeles Freeway and Detroit Expressway), it remained for the ingenious compromise of 1956 to mark the real beginning of the Interstate.

Autonomous systems would be able to diagnose themselves and respond accordingly.
The concept of the active state model (ASM) is an architecture for the development of advanced integrated fault-detection- and-isolation (FDI) systems for robotic land vehicles, pilotless aircraft, exploratory spacecraft, or other complex engineering systems that will be capable of autonomous operation. An FDI system based on the ASM concept would not only provide traditional diagnostic capabilities, but also integrate the FDI system under a unified framework and provide mechanism for sharing of information between FDI subsystems to fully assess the overall "health" of the system.
The ASM concept begins with definitions borrowed from psychology, wherein a system is regarded as active when it possesses self-image, self-awareness, and an ability to make decisions itself, such that it is able to perform purposeful motions and other transitions with some degree of autonomy from the environment. For an engineering system, self-image would manifest itself as the ability to determine nominal values of sensor data by use of a mathematical model of itself, and self-awareness would manifest itself as the ability to relate sensor data to their nominal values. The ASM for such a system may start with the closed-loop control dynamics that describe the evolution of state variables. As soon as this model was supplemented with nominal values of sensor data, it would possess self-image. The ability to process the current sensor data and compare them with the nominal values would represent self-awareness. On the basis of self-image and self-awareness, the ASM provides the capability for self-identification, detection of abnormalities, and self-diagnosis.
Another essential component of the ASM is the active system exchange (ASE), which includes a flexible database that stores all relevant FDI and other information to synthesize data and data-driven models sufficient for intelligent decision-making. The ASE would provide crucial information from all FDI subsystems and would allow an intelligent agent such as planning software to make decisions based on summarized understanding of the system health. When the full ASM architecture is implemented, it will provide a framework for a fully autonomous system that would be able to monitor and predict equipment failures, reconfigure the control subsystem of the system in response to an equipment failure, take appropriate action in response to unexpected events, and replan the mission of the system, as needed, in real time.

During the past few years the etiology of the hemorrhagic diseases has been the subject of considerable study. The progress made in this direction has been due largely to an increase in our knowledge of the physiology of blood coagulation and to the development of new methods of study. The literature of this period, indeed, has even given promise of an etiologic classification of hemorrhagic disease, but to the present time this goal has only been partly attained.It has been possible, for instance, to demonstrate that certain of the hemorrhagic conditions are associated with a deficiency in one or another factor of coagulation : there are on record instances of hemorrhagic disease associated with abnormalities in the prothrombin and antithrombin content of the blood.1 There is also experimental evidence of the existence of certain types of hepatic disease with some tendency to abnormal bleeding due to

A celebration of the gospel in song, featuring Bob Kauflin on the piano and over 5000 voices
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
It Is Well With My Soul
How Firm a Foundation
Oh the Deep, Deep Love
Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing
How Deep the Father's Love for Us
How Sweet and Aweful Is the Place
My Hope is Built on Nothing Less
I Will Glory in My Redeemer
Arise, My Soul, Arise
The Power of the Cross
My Song Is Love Unknown
And Can It Be That I Should Gain
There is a Fountain Filled with Blood
Before the Throne of God Above
In Christ Alone
Oh for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Jesus Paid It All
All Hail the Pow'r of Jesus Name
Together for the Gospel (T4G) began as a friendship among four pastors: Mark Dever, Ligon Duncan, C.J. Mahaney, and Albert Mohler. In April 2008, more than 5,000 people, mostly pastors, gathered at the T4G conference to hear God's Word and sing the praises of the Savior.
This CD contains those times of singing, accompanied by Bob Kauflin on an acoustic piano. As you listen, we pray you'll be freshly drawn to worship the One who "suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God" (1 Pe 3:18 ESV).

With an abundance of activities to participate in, dozens of children were at the St. Joseph of the Palisades church this morning to participate in the International foods and culture festival at the West New York church.
The festival, which takes place from yesterday until tomorrow, has become a tradition of the Palisade Avenue church.
"It's a chance to celebrate the variety of cultures in this parish," Msgr. Gregory Studerus said. "This is a community event. It not only serves our parish, but the whole neighborhood."
The festival is a three-day event, with a talent show last night, a children's day today before culminating with a large food festival tomorrow.
"The food is always good," said Studerus, who admitted he didn't have a particular favorite type of food. "I try a lot of different things. People love having a choice."
Festival coordinator Debbie Viola said that over 60 dishes are cooked from a mixture of parishioner's home cooking and area restaurants. In total, more than 12 different countries are represented at the festival.
Today, children were given a chance to participate in the festival, with several activities including face painting, a puppet show, and a Tae Kwon Do demonstration.
Since the festival expanded to three days a few years ago, Viola said the sense of community within the parish and the festival has grown.
"The community spirit (is my favorite part)," Viola said. "Everyone makes this possible and we make it a great time."

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Review
At times it looks better than its PS2 cousins and for those still enduring the long and painful road to KH3, Birth by Sleep is a fantastic stop along the way.
The first thing you'll need to get your head around is the Command Deck system. In many ways, this is just like the immortal materia system from Final Fantasy VII; you equip an ability (known as a command) and the more you use it, the more powerful it will become. Your deck is simply the selection of commands at your disposal, and can be edited as you wish. Commands can be found in chests and bought from shops along the way, and if you find one you're particularly fond of, you can swap it into your deck. Improving and editing your deck is surprisingly addictive, and you'll find yourself spending more and more time in the menus as the game progresses.
Another interesting addition to combat is the brand spanking new D-Link system. After becoming acquainted with certain characters in the game (which in Snow White's case, for example, involves saving her ass from man-eating trees), your hero is able to form a link with them in combat. This enables your hero to use the abilities dictated by that character's command deck. So, if your character doesn't happen to know any healing spells, you can use D-Link to use the abilities of a character that does. Pretty handy I think you'll agree.
By stringing together attacks of the right nature, you can also change your combat style. Throw a fire spell into the mix at the right time, for example, and you might activate the FireStorm style, which imbues your blade with that particular element. Experimenting with different command decks and working out which abilities provoke which command styles always manages to keep combat feeling fresh. In conjunction with D-Link and the option to combine two commands to create combination attacks, Birth by Sleep has one of the deepest real-time battle systems around.
Combat is great then, but it's hard to remain quite so complimentary about the narrative. While the story might make sense to those who've graduated with an A at Kingdom Hearts College, everybody else might find the plot slightly overwhelming. Just like Kingdom Hearts 2, it's somewhat convoluted, which I've always found quite jarring alongside the simplicity of the Disney plots. It's still digestible, though, and on the whole the voice acting is very good. The vocal talents of a certain Leonard Nimoy (Xehanort) are sure to delight many, and some of the original Disney actors have been brought in to really bring their characters to life.
It's been a good year for the PSP, especially for quirky RPG affairs such as this. I was ready to dismiss Birth by Sleep as being just another spin-off; a quick cash in on the Kingdom Hearts name, but I'm happy to have been proved wrong. In many ways, it actually outshines its console counterparts. Bar a few niggling control issues, the battle system could well be the best in the series yet, and at times I actually felt it looked better than its PS2 cousins. For those still enduring the long and painful road to KH3, Birth by Sleep is a fantastic stop along the way.

'Man of Steel' lacks heart, humor
If every generation gets the Superman it deserves, "Man of Steel" suggests we've earned one without wit or charm, a grim, muscle-bound 33-year-old (Henry Cavill) struggling to reconcile the past he is just learning about, trying to fit in with a military that may or may not consider him a threat but needs his help when his fellow Kryptonians come to call.
"Man of Steel" is a radical reinterpretation of the Superman myth, no sin in itself. The Zack Snyder version dwells much longer on Krypton and rearranges the story, hurling us into the adult Kal-El's Wolverine-like loner life as an American adult, showing us his formative childhood with his adoptive parents the Kents (Diane Lane and Kevin Costner) only in flashbacks.
It gives his Kryptonian nemesis, General Zod, a mission -- however misguided. And a point of view. So Michael Shannon, who plays him, isn't all that scary,
Without the wit, winks, flirtation and old-fashioned sentiment of the "truth, justice and the American way" take on the character, all Cavill has to do is mix it up in brawls with armor-plated aliens and occasionally agonize over it all.
Most of the far sillier "Transformers" movies were more fun.
From its production design -- ugly, black, insectoid spaceships -- to its forgettable score, this movie goes out of its way to distinguish itself from the Christopher Reeve films. It is the poorer for it.
Russell Crowe and Ayelet Zurer play the parents who ship their baby off their doomed planet. The sad resignation of the Marlon Brando version of father Jor-El is lost because Zod stages a coup, giving this overlong prologue shootouts and armored brawls.
We spend too little time with the story's heart, the ways the baby is embodied with good old-fashioned heartland virtues. Costner and Lane have the film's best scenes. Amy Adams is an overachieving Lois Lane, totally clued in on the evidence of an alien among us.
It's a competent movie -- state of the art explosions, implosions and whatnot. But without whimsy and fun, one has to wonder why Warner Bros. bothered.

Fabio Geda and Afghan refugee Enaiatollah Akbari answer questions about their literary collaboration and discuss the powerful process of creating In the Sea There are Crocodiles
Questions for Fabio Geda:
What made you decide to write Enaiatollah's story?
I met Enaiat during a presentation of my first novel, four years ago. In that novel I told the story of a Romanian boy who travels across Europe in search of his grandpa who works as an actor in the street. The association that invited me to present the book had also invited a boy who really did travel alone for a long time. In this way the real story of the boy could play as a sort of countermelody to the fictional story I had written. That boy was Enaiat.
That evening, while I was listening to him telling his story - a story so dramatic, so painful - I discovered that he was able to tell it with an incredible lightness, a surprising irony. So I thought it would be nice to put the same lightness, the same irony, in the pages of a book.
What was it like working with Enaiatollah? Please, describe your process in recording his memories and preserving his perspective. Were there any particular challenges?
Working with Enaiat was a great experience. My ...

ATLANTIC CITY - The blows came fast and furious for this struggling resort over the last week and a half.
Its newest and most expensive casino, Revel, declared bankruptcy for the second time June 19 and is threatening to close if it doesn't find a buyer. Four days later, the U.S. Supreme Court shot down New Jersey's effort to get sports betting, thus denying Atlantic City casinos an option they had long wanted to bring patrons in during the slow winters.
And on Thursday, Caesars Entertainment Inc., which owns four casinos here, announced it was closing the Mardi Gras-themed Showboat by summer's end. About 2,100 employees received 60-day notices the next day.

Atlantic Antic
A French Daredevil Crosses the Ocean the Hard Way—one Stroke at a Time
Where does someone get the sangfroid to sneer at a shark? Probably the same place he gets the gumption—or the hubris—to swim the Atlantic. Delage, 42, began his solo crossing, the first of its kind, on Dec. 16 in the Cape Verde islands off western Africa and was due to finish late last week in Barbados in the West Indies.
Of course, Delage didn't actually swim every one of the 2,400 miles he traversed. He slept on a 15-foot catamaran survival raft—filled with 14 varieties of menus, a computer, a radio transmitter and festooned with little electricity-generating windmills—that was designed to float along at his swimming speed. While swimming, he held onto a floater with a desalination machine inside and used superefficient spatula-shaped flippers for the estimated 2 million strokes the crossing required.
Delage was prepared for the worst, with a shark gun and an emergency beacon. He was unprepared, though, for his one close call. As he swam in 10-foot waves without his floater on Jan. 21, one of his flippers broke. He was 450 feet from his raft when he managed to grab the end of the lifeline that trailed behind it, but that, too, broke. Swimming as fast as he could to catch up, he needed 2½ hours to get back on the raft. "Usually my heart beats at 62 to 64 beats a minute," he later reported. "It stayed at 90 until the next morning."
Throughout the crossing, Delage's physical state was monitored electronically for scientists in France, and the lonely adventurer gave a stroke-by-stroke account of his swim via radio. His tendency to include less-than-riveting details (the sea was "blue," he told his listeners, and his raft was "damp") annoyed some of his countrymen. A writer at the respected Paris newspaper Le Monde dubbed him "the mad swimmer" and sniffed, "The most pointless exploits are the most talked about." L'Equipe, a sports newspaper, questioned whether Delage was actually swimming. "At best," the article read, "he takes each day a refreshing—albeit dangerous—dip."
Delage—who spent three years lining up corporate and academic sponsorship for the voyage—was quick to dismiss his detractors. "There are always people who don't like this kind of project," he said. "Let them talk. Anyway, I've always said this was a scientific expedition, not a sports feat."
Delage, a flying instructor, showed his penchant for the beau geste early in life. The son of schoolteachers in a village 50 miles northeast of Paris, he swam the English Channel at age 18—not to make the record books but to be with a girlfriend who had gone to England. His most noteworthy exploit before the transatlantic swim, though, was a record-setting 27-hour flight from Cape Verde to Brazil in an ultralight aircraft.
Of course, the question arises: Why would a middle-aged man, married with two young children, take up this particular challenge? "I can give you different reasons," he said. "To extend myself. To see the scenery. To see if you can do this after 40." Moreover, he added, "I want to know the sensation of absolute solitude, 1,200 miles from the nearest coast. It's better to die in the jaws of a shark than in bed."

Colette Erickson 4 years, 3 months ago
How about a fireworks ban as well? And, enforcement in the City of the no fireworks ordinance?
Allen Hischke 4 years, 3 months ago
There is a state laws prohibiting some fireworks.
KUSA - According to Colorado law, some types of fireworks are legal to possess and others are illegal. Under Colorado law 12-28-101, any device that explodes or leaves the ground is probably illegal in Colorado. This includes firecrackers, cherry bombs, bottle rockets, M-80s and Roman Candles. Permissible fireworks do not leave the ground or explode. This includes cone fountains, sparklers, toy smoke devices, snakes and glow worms. Towns and counties in Colorado may have more restrictive fireworks laws. Contact your local police or sheriff departments for laws in your community. It is illegal in Colorado for anyone under 16 years of age to own or use fireworks. Fines for violating Colorado fireworks laws can be up to $750 and six months in jail. I hope if my neighbors decide to set of illegal fireworks this year they take them somewhere away from my house. Not only is there a danger from fire, but they leave a mess all over my yard, that my neighbors never think about cleaning up after they shoot off their exploding and flying fireworks. I will call law enforcement this year.

St. Patrick, the top-ranked team in The Star-Ledger's statewide poll, is facing expulsion from the upcoming state tournament and a three-game suspension for coach Kevin Boyle because of his presence at workouts before the start of the season. Those workouts, held for the benefit of college coaches, were secretly videotaped by an investigator from the New Jersey State Interscholastic Association. A final decision on the school's fate will be made this morning during an NJSIAA executive committee meeting in Robbinsville.
The Star-Ledger obtained a copy of the appeal, which was e-mailed to members of the NJSIAA's executive committee.
Among the key points:
• The document alleges the NJSIAA ignored its own bylaws that a school under investigation be notified.
• Trespassing occurred when an undercover investigator gained access to St. Patrick property by fraudulent representations.
• An invasion of privacy occurred when the investigator videotaped the activities in the St. Patrick gym.
The appeal also pointed to three similar cases that were all overturned by the state, including a decision from 2008 regarding St. Mary High (Rutherford) football coach Michael Sheridan, who was present during out-of-season football drills. Sheridan was not penalized by the state, which cited "possible inadvertence and his outstanding record," according to the appeal.
St. Patrick's appeal also contained a veiled threat of civil lawsuits.
"It commissioned an illegal investigation of the type that simply has no place in high school athletics," the appeal stated. "Ranging from repeated acts of criminal trespass to invasion of privacy to obstruction of justice. "
NJSIAA Executive Director Steve Timko did not return messages left on his cell phone.
Kevin Marino, the attorney brought in to handle the appeal for Boyle and St. Patrick, declined comment.
The NJSIAA began investigating St. Patrick after Timko received a call from former NBA player Chris Washburn Sr., who expressed concern over the transfer of his two sons, Julian and Christopher, to the school over the summer. The NJSIAA used an undercover investigator who secretly videotaped practices at St. Patrick and followed the Washburn brothers to their place of residence. The NJSIAA found no evidence the Washburn brothers had been recruited to St. Patrick.
It was during the investigation of the Washburn brothers that out-of-season practices at St. Patrick were discovered.
Following the executive meeting, the state tournament brackets are expected to be released. St. Patrick (18-2) has won three of the past four titles in the Tournament of Champions, the highest achievement a team from New Jersey can earn. The team plays national power Oak Hill (Va.) Academy tonight at 9 p.m. at Kean University.

During the ceremony, Wilson Lane Development's Managing Member Karen Jacobson said that the 14-plus acre development situated on Wilson Lane near the Tygart Valley Mall will be a welcome addition to Elkins. Highland Meadows features 42, quarter acre lots and is anticipated to be a community designed to bring quality, convenience and natural outdoor appeal together in one affordable locale.
Jacobson said they expect strong demand for the properties. "Highland Meadows will meet the need of the local housing market for new, moderately-priced homes. We expect this to strengthen and diversify our local housing market, benefiting both first-time homebuyers and families that want to live closer to jobs, schools, recreation and entertainment options in Elkins."
The Elkins Mayor Judy Guye attended the ceremony and said that Highland Meadows will be annexed into the city and will be provided with city water, sewage, electricity and garbage pick up.
Jennifer Giovanitti, executive director of the Randolph County Development Authority, said the fact that Highland Meadows is so close to the Tygart Valley Mall and other businesses will benefit the people and the city. "Keeping people close to the city is really important," she said.
Representatives of the Highland Meadows project recently met with local contractors to outline the project and introduce incentives for property sales and financing. More than 16 contractors attended the meeting at the Randolph County Wood Technology Center, which was sponsored by Elkins Builders Supply Co.
The Highland Meadows subdivision includes buried utilities, landscaped grounds and paved streets, a large greenway, and convenient access to shopping, dining, health care, schools and other amenities. As a planned community, guidelines for residential design will apply; however, a variety of house sizes and styles are available.
According to Jacobson, Highland Meadows will be annexed into the city of Elkins once the lots are complete. This will provide for city-owned and operated utilities, garbage service, street maintenance and Class A residential zoning.
Homes constructed by Highland Community Builders — a Wilson Lane Development partner — will be ready for sale by late 2008. The homes will range in price from $110,000 to $150,000. Lots, beginning at $29,000, are available for those interested in building their own home.
Smith Backhoe and Excavating of Elkins was selected to implement the property's initial construction and infrastructure which includes the development of roadways, underground utilities, subdivision of lots and general site preparation. This initial phase of the project is expected to be complete by mid-September, 2008.
"Common in more suburban locations, planned communities blend traditional neighborhood living with modern day housing," Jacobson said. "Highland Meadows will provide a safe, friendly place for families and individuals to live. And the newly, constructed homes will offer residents a better quality of life by lessening the stress of home maintenance, upkeep or renovation generally experienced with older homes."
For more information about Highland Meadows, call Karen Jacobson at 636-6495, ext. 16, or 1-304-940-2506.

DIGGIN' IN THAT DIRT – Karen Jacobson, Wilson Lane Development's Managing Member, breaks ground on the future site of the Highland Meadows community at a ceremony Friday.

Yahoo continues shift into mobile with Blink acquisition
14:28, May 14 2014
Self-destructive message app buyout will add brains to Yahoo's 'smart communication' team.
Yahoo has acquired self-destructing message app Blink so it can poach the seven-person team behind the mobile application.
Blink allowed users to share messages that deleted themselves after a set period of time. This self-destruction allowed for higher privacy.
Yahoo will reportedly shut down the app in the next few weeks in order for the Blink team to start work on Yahoo's 'smart communication' products. Terms of the deal were undisclosed.
On Blink's website, a message left by the team reads: "We built Blink because we believe everyone should be free to show the same honesty and spontaneity in their online conversations as they can in person. We look forward to the possibilities that will come from bringing the Blink vision to Yahoo."
The acquisition is part of Yahoo's drive to generate more revenue from mobile services. Blink's rivals include Snapchat, Confide and Wickr.
Facebook offered Snapchat a multi-billion dollar deal last year, but was turned down. Facebook's own Poke app was discontinued last week. In February, Facebook purchased messaging app Whatsapp for $19bn, with Japan's Rakuten buying free messaging app Viber for $900m.

WARREN - A 25-year-old Detroit man was being held in lieu of $2.5 million bond after pleading not guilty Wednesday morning to a charge of aggravated murder in connection with Sunday morning's downtown shootout that claimed the life of 32-year-old Marco Dukes of Warren.
''I could (make bond) if you knocked it down a few million,'' Dale A. Hatch of Detroit told Warren Municipal Judge Terry Ivanchak after the judge asked if he could make bond during a video court appearance. Hatch was scheduled for a preliminary hearing in court on Nov. 21.
Meanwhile, Warren police released Reginald F. Baldwin, 21, of Detroit, Tuesday morning, but then Tuesday night arrested Derrick Peete, 22, of Webb Avenue S.W., who police said has ties to Detroit. Peete was charged with aggravated murder and faces an arraignment Thursday morning.
Baldwin was arrested with Hatch near the corner of High Street and Vine Avenue N.E. minutes after Sunday's shooting about two blocks away on Elm Court N.E. Detectives said this morning that prosecutors advised them there was not enough evidence to hold Baldwin. They said Hatch also has an address in Minnesota and another one on Youngstown Road S.E.
Peete was arrested without incident at 7:20 p.m. Tuesday at a friend's home on Kenilworth Avenue S.E.
Gunfire broke out on Elm Court between Market and High streets just before 10:30 a.m. Sunday, according to reports. Police said it was apparent that assault weapons were used in the shootings. Officers recovered numerous shell casings in a parking lot in that area.
Fact Box
If you go
What:?Public meeting held by Trumbull Neighborhood Partnership
When: 3 p.m. Friday
Where: Sunrise Inn Banquet Room
Topic: Crime and safety issues in Warren
Dukes' cousin, Larry Smith, 29, 2305 Jackson St., S.W., Warren, also was shot. He remains in Trumbull Memorial Hospital.
Smith was loaded into a car with help from another man and a Good Samaritan drove him to the hospital. Dukes was flown by helicopter to a Cleveland hospital where he died from gunshot wounds to the head. His death was ruled a homicide Tuesday in Cuyahoga County.
Detectives Wednesday described Sunday's shooting as a ''major gun battle,'' indicating that several different people involved had high-powered weapons and Dukes or Smith may have returned gunfire as they were apparently ambushed behind the home on Elm Court.
Dukes was found slumped on the stairway leading to the rear of the apartment house.
Detectives at the scene numbered at least 47 shell casings found on the pavement. Several shots hit windows and the siding of buildings nearby. Detectives said they have recovered weapons they believe were used in the gun battle.
Detectives Wayne Mackey and Michael Currington said with the help of the U.S. Marshals Service, Trumbull County probation officers and agents with Trumbull Ashtabula Group Law Enforcement Task Force as many as 10 people have been picked up for questioning since the shootout. One of those questioned was picked up Tuesday at a motel on Youngstown Road S.E.
Dukes' mother, Darlene Dukes, told The Tribune Tuesday that her son got a telephone call from a man he knows to come over to the Elm Court apartment. He was fatally shot minutes after arriving, she said.
''He (Marco Dukes) was set up. I don't think it's fair. I hope he (Hatch) rots in jail,'' said Valerie Redd of Columbus, the victim's aunt and Darlene Dukes' sister.
Redd and several other family members and friends attended Hatch's arraignment.
''We don't care about his (Marco Dukes) past. He actually saved his cousin's life,'' said Star Mallory, who was among those gathered at the court hearing and who tried to implicate a woman she said drove Pete from the scene Sunday.
Dukes has served prison time and Smith has had several run-ins with the law along with Hatch, who has convictions in Michigan.

Love this one!!!!! So Bella and Edward ended up with 3 children.
Well at least she tried to do something nice for Jack in the end.
Enjoyed reading Edward's POV. Thanks
Poor Jack. He has been through so much
Thanks for doing Emmett's POV.
Love reading these outtakes
Glad they had are good vacation
Bless Edward's heart.
Love love love it
Love his Mother's day breakfasts.
I had to come check out your outakes. I enjoyed reading the main story.
AMAZING!!! o/t, f/t ;) you haven't pressed complete but it has been a while since you posted so i'm hoping you come back with more one day ;D
I love that song by Martina, and I loved Charlie's chapter, he's just the best daddy and grandpa! Taking care of all three kids was just darling, bless his heart!
I'm never going to be a fan of Victoria, but I understand her a little more after reading this. Just like everyone else, even she isn't all bad, she tried to help Bella escape, after all. Still, now she can't hurt Jack any more!
Pretty damn scary stuff, and awfully close to being the end of everything! Edward and Bella came within an inch of losing each other!
Poor Jack, he must have had a premonition that he was going to see that evil witch that birthed him! Thank God Bella and Edward were there for him, and good riddance, Victoria died!
You did super with Emmett, and with how much Rosalie loves him, and how much he loves Edward and Jack. Good chapter!
Halloween through the years was really fun to read. The costume choices were really imaginative!
What a wonderful road trip and vacation for mother and son!
My heart aches for Edward. He got such a rotten deal when he married Victoria, and then she lost their son, to boot! It's a miracle Edward is able to function at all, let alone build a business.
I'm so glad you wrote this chapter for Alice and Jasper's wedding! From the traditional vows to Bella's recitation of Browning's beautiful poem, to the reception, it was just lovely, and so touching!
The two Mother's Days were so sweet, it was impossible to choose which one I loved more!
Shopping for that car was probably a lot of fun, and who says you have to be practical? The connection between Bella and Charlie has a lot to do with the connection between her and her son. Just sayin'!
Awww poor sappy Charlie. I love getting a little glimpse inside Charlie's thoughts and emotions. It was also nice to see how the kids were growing up.
I loved it!!! :D Thanks for this beautiful outtake!!!
awww sweet chapter.
Sweet! I love the "shotgun in the car" dialogue. Can't get over that one. It's hilarious. :-)
Another look at Jack's world.....13 and "almost a man" - LOL. Loved this story and how you wrote it. Thank you for sharing this outtake.
so pretty and fluffy and ugh I just loved it
Loved it. How sweet is Charlie.
loved it!!! great job. i'm still sad the story is over though lol
This is interesting having Victoria's POV. Great job...thanks!!!
She did so many things wrong in her life until the end. Saving Bella so that her son could have "the mother he deserved," says it all. RIP Victoria.
Oh that was a grand POV. I truly loved it!
Cant wait to see htem all. think I donate to them all
Awesome that you're writing for so many fandom fundraisers. I'll have to look into the Autism Speaks one. It's very close to me i've got a 5 year old son with aspergers.
well i hope that she realizes in the end what she did was wrong
thanks for the alternating POV
Thanks for Edward's POV. Great job...thanks!!!
Oh Edward.....just marry the girl!!
Great as always....I always love EPOV! James was so lost inside himself...I feel sorry that he had no clue but then....he never did!!
jACK REALLY WENT THROUGH IT WITH VICTORIA POOR BOY.
such memories had been terrible nightmares for a child like Jack. i can't really blame the boy for hating his real mother for all the hurt he'h experienced with her. you've been very vivid with those horibble memories Shel. you don't leave a stone unturned with every chap you come up. keep on sweetie!
Great chapter! :)
Victoria is evil!
What a horrible woman to do such things to a sweet little boy. She never deserved him, but we all knew that. Great job...thanks so much!!!
Great outtake! Gotta say, when I read the teaser a while back, I was so scared that Victoria and Renee managed to get to Jack and take him away. That would kill Edward and Bella not to mention irreparably harm Jackson!
Really good outtake. I feel so sorry for him to feel he can't be a "normal" kid and has to be uber good because of the trauma his birth mother put him through. Glad he's in therapy to help him overcome or manage his fears. I hope one day he's able to tell Bella his fears so she can reassure him that she's not going anywhere. He may not be bone of her bone nor flesh of her flesh but she is his and he is hers as if it were!
Again, fantastic!!
nice job hun
Loved Em's POV.
Wow I think this is probably my favorite Emmet so far, what a sweetheart!!!
Great outtake! Keep'em comin. :)
I love this Emmett. We should all be so fortunate to have someone like him as a brother or cousin or uncle.
Emmett have a wild ride. :-)
Great job! :)
Great job....I love Emmett. Thanks so much!!!
LOVED IT!! Going back to reread the meet & greet again! I had forgotten Edwards interest!
Cute fluff
Great chapter & I loved the pics but you preemie outtake has me worried. Are poor excuses for egg donors psycho moms Vic & Renee going to kidnap Jack? I'm getting stressed & it was just a tease!! Oh no!
Thanks for the outtake.... that was pretty funny... especially the Robin costume... gotta Love Jack!!!!
Great outtake!
That was cute. I feel like I say it all the time but I just think that Jack is adorable.
Elli :)
Sweet Halloween story.
Totally cute! Happy Halloween.
Bella and Edward are going to have their hands full when Jack hits puberty. He's already a hand full and adorable as hell. I can just imagine it only getting worse ;) Bella and Jack are just too sweet together. *sigh* I'm just a little more in love with Jack now.
That broke my heart. Poor Edward. I can't begin to tell you the relief I felt when I saw that Edward forced her to relinquish her parental rights. I was so worried about Victoria coming back and causing major problems. I'm sure she would still try. Of course after the end of chapter 17 I'm afraid her father is up to something. I loved EPOV anc can't wait for more of that. I'm dying to know what all is going through his head in regards to Bella.
LOL! OMG I like how Sue dodged the sex talk for Bella. That was greatness. They have such a sweet little family unit there in Washington. I wonder how all of this will play out to benefit everyone when it is all said and done. So many people in both parts of the country love that little boy and the people in Chicago are starting to love Bella too.
I swear little Jack has the power to bring me to tears quicker than anyone else in this story. He is so sweet. I died laughing when Garrett called Bella a Milf. That was total greatness.
I love seeing these missing moments between Jack and Bella. Things like this are why I think the Cullens would never take Jack away from Bella.
Loved this outtake. I think the relationship between Bella and Jack is cute.
Elli :)
Love those two.
hmmm the ominous black hair. muhahahaha
great out take cant waittill the next one
poor edward!!! victoria is such a bitch!!!
Poor Edward. I really do feel bad for him. Victoria did not deserve him or Jack. I'm definitely loving your story and all the outtakes. Looking forward to reading more soon.
Elli :)
I loved this. I think it was so nice of Jasper to have Jack as his best man or the best boy. LoL. Alice and Jasper really are some great friends to Bella.
Elli :)
Great chapter. Jack really is the cutest.
Elli :)
Great chapter. Loved it.
Elli :)
victoria is a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edward went throug so much! Victoria never deserved him or the wonderful little boy she was given. Great job...thanks!!1
poor edward i feel for him victoria is an evil bitch can't wait to hear more from him
I'm glad you did this outtake, but I'd really like an outtake from EPOV for chapter 12 or Parachute.
Poor Eddie.
Wow! Lets hope he didn't use James again.
So cute and wonderfully done. Love the personalities and relationships of your characters.
what a beautiful wedding!!!! bella and jack's speech was vey cute!! angela's twin brothers were also cute asking bella to dance!!

Call for Panels: Third European Congress on World and Global History
11-14 April 2011, London School of Economics & Political Science
Theme: Connections and Comparisons
Recent decades have seen the re-emergence and, on an unprecedented scale, the further development of various interacting strands of world, global and trans-national history, all sharing the aim of transcending national historiographies. Connections and comparisons have been central to these intellectual enterprises. The third European Congress on World and Global History, to be held in London at the LSE in April 2011, provides an opportunity for sustained reflection on these themes.
We cordially invite proposals for panels examining comparisons, connections and entanglements between polities, societies, communities and individuals situated in, or spanning, different regions of the world. The perspectives involved will range from interactions between humanity and the environment, including over the very long term, through the cultural and economic histories of material and social life, to empires, international organizations, oceans as spaces of sustained interaction between communities from different continents, the experience and consequences of migration, periods of 'de globalization' and 'globalization', and the intercontinental sources and consequences of revolutions, whether political, technological, social or ideological. Not least, we encourage critical reflection on the methodological and conceptual issues involved in comparative, transnational and entangled histories: whether in general, or in relation to specific areas of historical inquiry, from religions to real wages, from diasporas to epistemic communities. We look forward to contributions from not only from scholars in various disciplines, based both in Europe and around the world. Conference languages will be English, French and German.
Proposals: We invite proposals for panels comprising 3-6 participants. In addition to the names, affiliations and email and snailmail addresses of the participants, proposals should include titles and abstracts of the panel as a
whole (200-600 words) and of each individual paper (100-300 words).
Please note that, at this stage, it is only proposals for panels, rather than for isolated papers, that are sought. However, panel proposers are welcome to leave one or two spaces for further papers. After the Steering Committee has selected panels, in April 2010, there will be a second Call, inviting proposals for individual papers to take up any vacant slots in the already-accepted
All LSE meeting rooms have Powerpoint facilities. When the time comes, it is hoped that all papers will be posted in advance on the congress webpage.
Submission: all proposals must be received by 28 February 2010.
They should be submitted as email attachments to Katja Naumann at: firstname.lastname@example.com
Dates and deadlines
28 February 2010: Call for Panels closes.
28 April 2010: Date by which proposers will be notified of the outcome. A Call for Papers will be issued, inviting proposals for individual papers, mainly to complete panels already accepted.
October 2010: Congress registration and reservation of accommodation opens (through the congress website). It will be possible to reserve accommodation to suit different needs and pockets, in a range of hotels and in a LSE hall of residence.
Inquiries: at this stage inquiries about the conference may be sent to Katja Naumann (as above) or to Gareth Austin, Department of Economic History, LSE (firstname.lastname@example.com), who chairs the ENIUGH Steering Committee and the LSE local arrangements committee.
