Did she cure an unknown disease? No. Did she take a stand against one of the many social issues that affect women? No. Maybe she voiced an opinion about the current global warming debate... nope, wrong again. Other than being an overrated clothes horse, it's hard to see the value added when it comes to Kim K. However despite all the arguments against the all-encompassing Kardashian brand, you can't help but secretly admire her business acumen.
As the co-founder of a startup platform that connects top talent with job opportunities at some of Europe's most exciting startups, this worries me as I believe that shows like The Apprentice are putting people off working in startups, particularly young people.
Excitement really has started to kick on apprenticeships lately and it's starting to look encouraging - we might even get it onto the election agenda as a policy!
The brief was that they wanted a therapist to mediate with families who had appeared on The Jeremy Kyle Show. My eyes lit up like a Christmas tree and I faintly heard the audience applause as it echoed out into the distance.
Nick Hewer must wonder what he's done wrong. Where exactly is his title? A couple of honorary degrees from the universities of Ulster and Kingston - a polytechnic until 1992 - simply don't cut it compared to his ennobled colleagues.
To get ahead and be successful, there is no doubt that you have to be a strong and confident leader with clear idea about what you want and how you're going to get it. To remain successful, however, the narcissism that many of them seem so proud of will need to take a back seat to make way for more rational, big-picture thinking.
You might be forgiven for thinking that our economy has fully recovered, especially with unemployment back to pre-recession levels, and the UK showing the strongest growth in Europe, surpassing all predictions. The view from many is that we're through the worst. But, the reality is different for many people, especially those who either have just left or are leaving school to compete for the limited number of jobs available.
We had to take this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so we did. And six months later we drove down to London to pitch our make-up business to the Apprentices. They were looking for products they could take, sell and make the most money on.
One of the worst parts of my 2013 has been comparing the amount of money that leaves my account with a significantly smaller amount of tangible goods.
Here's the thing... most people who scoff at Hull, have never even been. And I guess that's the way life works, if a bandwagon rumbles past us, we sometimes can't help but jump on it. If someone, or some place strives, we can't seem to wait to knock them.
For those of you unfamiliar with the name Luisa Zissman, you are unfamiliar with the current British celebrity hierarchy. Zissman has entered the party with immediate B/C list status. Her role as runner up on The Apprentice has effectively launched her 'it' girl status. Hardly a day passes without an update on her life by the British tabloids. And I for one- am pleased.
Although we all tell ourselves we need to address our work-life balance, have we ever thought about the effect we are having on the next generation? Careers and success will always be an important part of everyone's life, but that doesn't mean success should have to come at so high a price.
In my mind it's simple; cosmetic surgery isn't to be taken lightly, and giving it away as a prize or reward is frankly just irresponsible. I can't even begin to express my horror after reading about an American ophthalmologist who was in the news this week for offering cosmetic procedures to anyone who can set him up with his 'dream woman'.
Ask questions, see if you can speak to past or present apprentices. Gather knowledge. It is not all about the money either. Remembering that there is more to a job than salary and benefits will help you, the candidate, make the right choice. A key question to ask any potential employer is about the opportunities at the end of the training period.
Maybe the example set by Dr Leah will actually help the reputation of clinics who work hard to provide outstanding training, service, and facilities, and truly separate the wheat from the chaff- the great clinics from the dodgy salons.
If we lose Elizabeth Fry from our five pound note, we are left with the Queen as our only female representative. Are we really unable to find a single historical female figure worthy of being commemorated? Maybe we just can't collectively remember women that have done great deeds. That certainly seems to have been the trouble in sport this month.

CBD Secretariat Circulates Guidance on Incorporating Biodiversity-Related Conventions into Revised NBSAPs
18 October 2013: The Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) has issued a notification containing a compilation of pertinent resolutions and associated tools developed under the biodiversity-related conventions, to be used by CBD parties in the process of revising and updating their national biodiversity strategies and action plans (NBSAPs).
The compilation was prepared on the basis of a decision by the liaison group of the biodiversity-related conventions, which convened from 2-3 September 2013, in Geneva, Switzerland.
The biodiversity-related conventions include, in addition to the CBD: the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES); the Convention on Migratory Species (CMS); the UNESCO World Heritage Convention; the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGR); and the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands.
In the documents prepared for the upcoming GEF Council meeting, the GEF Secretariat highlights that it helped to organize, in collaboration with the CBD Secretariat, the meeting of the Liaison Group of the Biodiversity-Related Conventions (BLG), with the Swiss Government providing financial and logistical support to the meeting. The meeting "focused on the relationship between members of the BLG and the GEF, including how to facilitate access to GEF funding by harnessing synergies among BLG members."

Restaurant week kicks off in York
York residents are in for a week-long treat because the city's restaurant week is now in full swing with events going on all around the city.
Eman: You can vote for corrupt Hillary or ego manic Trump, both less than ideal candidates. BUT THERE IS ONE FACT DEMOCRATS CAN'T DENY ! With the press supporting in spite of her lies, and brutal trashing of Trump by the Democrats and liberal media, and even with many elite Republican Politicians not supporting him, it's still a toss up. The big difference is Hillary is a career politician and has a long record of lying. Her record of shaking down foreign governments and special interests while she was deciding issues involving those governments as sec. of state is shameful. Bill taking $750,000 for a speech from companies with business before her is criminal. However, the big issue today is after decades in power and the current state of jobs, the economy, foreign relations, and a polarized government with both parties acting like fools, " What the heck do we have to lose giving the business guy a shot." If he proves a poor President vote him out in 4 years! Electing Hillary is just continuation of corrupt government and a decline in Americans standard of living.

Sorry there are no component inputs on your TV.
Osrry for my ignorance, im not very clue'd up with this side of things, I have this TV, it is HD redy and would like to know if it can handle the component cable. It has scart, dvi-1 and video in inputs.
many thanks
Sorry there are no component inputs on your TV.

hmmmm, so u can't get any kinda adaptors or convertors?
thanks 4 the reply
Very odd because according to this link your tv does have component inputs.
Best to just look at the back of the tv for the blue, green and red inputs.
Your going to want a different TV anyway because the one you have is 16ms which is not good for gaming.
does the component cable really make a huge difference? I dont really know that much about this stuff, but it doesnt seem like it would be worth 35$ just for a clear-er picture.

TAMPA — With leading rusher Ish Witter on crutches on the sideline and an ice pack on his right ankle, quarterback Brandon Hawkins put Alonso on his shoulders.
Hawkins drove his team 80 yards for the go-ahead score with 5:13 remaining, and Tampa Catholic quarterback Kyle Ploucher's pass on the final play fell incomplete in the end zone as Alonso (5-3) won 17-14 on homecoming.
TC (6-2) threatened on the final series, moving to the Alonso 35 with 10 seconds left. But Ploucher misfired on two straight passes.
Hawkins (14 of 30, 213 yards) accounted for both touchdowns with an 80-yard pass to Hunter Randolph and his short run.
"(TC) wasn't focusing on me running the ball," Hawkins said. "They were just getting back in their zones, not keeping their eyes on me. So I ran the ball and our receivers made plays when they had to."

Raisins in the Sun
Some musicians spend their downtime on the ski slopes; others check into the rehab clinic -- but a handful of true believers spend their vacations playing more music. And that's just what this gaggle of acclaimed, if underrated, performers did a few months back -- fortunately, with the tapes rolling. Raisins in the Sun are a loose aggregation of folks, including power-pop legend Jules Shear, roots-rock guitar guru Chuck Prophet, and production legend/keyboard master Jim Dickinson (whose swampy sounds have graced releases by the Rolling Stones, Replacements, and Ry Cooder, to list just the R's). Shaken and stirred together, the sounds take on a flavor that's utterly unique and almost always offbeat -- from the Tejano choogle of "Old Times Again" to the finger-popping jive of "Glenn and Stone." Shear's wry lyrics bubble up from the mix often enough to get the gray matter involved -- as on the chilling yet comic "Post Apocalyptic Observations" -- yet never get in the way of the greasy progress of the down-and-dirty riffs. Dickinson, who packs acres of Dixie dirt into tunes like "Chicken Fried," is nicely balanced by the team of Sean Slade and Paul Kolderie (best known for producing Radiohead and Hole, among others), who bring a burnished yet homey sheen to the proceedings with smartly placed guitar and organ hooks. Bet ya can't eat just one. David Sprague

In the wake of Saviours' Day 2007, the Nation of Islam's annual convention, Louis Farrakhan has once again failed to take responsibility for past anti-Semitic and bigoted remarks.
Farrakhan was interviewed by CNN's Don Lemon and ABC News' Nightline's Martin Bashir less than two weeks after recommending a distinctly anti-Semitic and anti-Israel "reading list" during his Saviours' Day keynote address.
During the Nightline interview, Farrakhan denied being anti-white, anti-Semitic and anti-gay, claiming – as he has done so many times in the past - that the tone of his message had gotten "in the way of people hearing" his true message. He refused to apologize for any of his past statements, including his infamous remark calling Hitler "wickedly great." Farrakhan, who said, "I stand by that statement today," made his usual semantic arguments in defense of that remark.
When asked by Bashir if he was sorry for anything he has said or done, Farrakhan simply said, "no." When asked if he wanted to apologize "to any of the groups that may have felt offended" by his remarks, he also said "no," and claimed to have reached out to those groups in the hopes of sitting down to "reason together."
Farrakhan also denied being anti-Semitic during his interview with Lemon on CNN, claiming that "from the depth of my heart, I know that I have never hated the Jewish people." Farrakhan went on to say that he is merely "critical of Jewish behavior in relationship to black people or in relationship to the Palestinians."
By failing to take responsibility for his past record of anti-Semitism and bigotry, Farrakhan lost yet another opportunity to reject the racism and anti-Semitism that has tainted his leadership.

Am I supposed to be surprised that Jim Tressel lied about having knowledge of his players committing NCAA infractions?
Am I supposed to care that his job may be in jeopardy and that Ohio State is likely going to suffer for a number of years once the NCAA comes down on the program with an iron fist?
Am I supposed to rip into Tressel for the sheer hypocrisy of writing a book about honesty and integrity called "The Winners Manual" then going against many of the lessons in that same book?
Am I supposed to be in shock that another Buckeye icon appears to be going down?
Am I supposed to point out that the NCAA is a cash cow and even if Tressel had reported these violations that the punishments probably wouldn't have been very severe given the money the Ohio State program generates?
Am I supposed to point out the blatant hypocrisy of the NCAA punishing Ohio State players but not for the next game they were to play, the Sugar Bowl, where the team went on to beat Arkansas?
Am I supposed to point out how screwed up college athletics are on the Division I level?
Am I supposed to argue that it was just kids selling memorabilia and not crack cocaine?
Am I supposed to say that way worse things than what is happening at Ohio State happen at colleges all across the country every year?
Am I supposed to berate Ohio State for recruiting players who seem to be habitual troublemakers?
Am I supposed to tell Tressel that he should in fact apologize, something he hasn't truly done yet?
Am I supposed to field and respond to vast amounts of e-mail from Buckeye fanatics who know I am not an Ohio State fan?
Am I supposed to write a column ripping a team that I don't dislike, but rather a team that has a number of fans who I'm not exactly thrilled with having to deal with?
Am I supposed to take the high road and say nothing at all?
Am I supposed to check with my editor before I put this little question piece into print?
Or should I just print it?
I think I'll just print it.
Because that's the road Tressel would've taken.
I want to be a winner.

Edmund Leighton's (1853–1922) father was also a portrait and subject painter, whose exhibited at the Royal Academy. Educated at University College School, he took an office position in the city, but entered the Royal Academy Schools after studying at South Kensington and Heatherley's.
I ordered this in a large size for my living room as I had seen it years ago and always liked the scene and the colors. I didn't know if the painting would be what I remembered but it was better than I expected. The colors are beautiful and the painting so well done. Some thought I had purchased a real Monet, but that isn't in my budget. This one was and I am very happy with my purchase.
Absolutely love this tile! The colours are so vibrant and pop off the tile. Looks great on the wall.
We were so impressed with our first purchase we bought a second painting the next day. Not only was the painting outstanding, the frame was super as well!
I just pulled my new painting out of the box (which arrived incredibly quick) and I am absolutely in love! It is so beautiful, and detailed - so much better than I was expecting. The frame is good quality and it was assembled well - this is definitely a piece I will have the rest of my life. All in all, I am overjoyed with it! I will definitely be a returning customer!
Smooth transaction, excellent price/sale, flawless and quick shipping, and most of all, product just as advertised. By the way, frame is a beautiful match. Would shop again!
No worries here, nothing but good things to say about OverstockArt.com. They were responsive and accommodating [...] Great quality oil paintings at reasonable prices that have brightened my home. I just ordered several more paintings and I have another in mind. Their superior service and product quality will keep me coming back.
Arrived quickly, beautiful painting, beautiful frame, I am so impressed by this website. I will be ordering again shortly and recommending to all my friends! Honestly, did not expect to be so satisfied.
We just received our painting and the quality is far superior to any reproductions we have seen from European suppliers.
We just received our painting and the quality is far superior to any reproductions we have seen from European suppliers.
I have called a few times with questions and they have always been so helpful. It is nice to call an online company and get a real person the first time!

BOSTON - The top fiscal aide for Gov. Deval Patrick is warning that nearly 4,600 federally-funded state workers in Massachusetts may be furloughed or laid off as federal money runs out during the partial government shutdown.
In a memo released late Wednesday afternoon, Glen Shor, secretary of administration and finance, spelled out the impacts in Massachusetts as the closure stretched into its second day.
Shor said that the federal government will not continue quarterly formula grants for programs such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, child care, social services block grants, refugee programs, child welfare services and the Community Service Block Grant programs.
"The federal government shutdown harms the Massachusetts economy, state government and people across the commonwealth," Shor wrote in the memo to the state Legislature. "Thousands of employees may face furloughs or layoffs; dozens of programs for education, health care, job creation and veterans' services will soon run out of funding."
Shor called on Congress to approve a budget that reimburses state government for any costs it incurs during the partial shutdown. He said the state will use whatever money is available to keep people employed and programs running, but he said that is an unsustainable short-term fix and creates state budget problems.
As certain federal programs run out of cash on hand, the programs will not be able to provide services without state help, he said.
No federal money is available to pay the administrative costs of the Nutrition Program for the Women, Infants, and Children, Shor said. The processing of new educational, pay, and pension benefits for the 394,000 Massachusetts veterans will be delayed, he added.
If the federal government shutdown lasts beyond Nov. 1, approximately 200,000 families will no longer receive money from the Low Income Heating and Energy Assistance Program, he said.

Why Teachers Should Earn a Master's
Teachers have an obligation to be good models for their students. You won't find a mission statement in a school in America that doesn't have something about wanting their students to become lifelong learners. Well, if we expect that of our students, we need to do that as teachers, too. Undergraduate education is great, but it's so much more enriching to be able to get a master's degree, where you're in the classroom [with] all of your academic learning, [and] this learning lab [you have] every single day in your school#and you're able to bring those two things together. The learning is much richer and much more meaningful.
I enjoyed my master's program tremendously, and I can't imagine a teacher who wouldn't want to keep learning that way. I think we have an obligation to do that for our students, to continue learning forever until the day we're out of the classroom, hopefully even beyond that. I can't imagine teachers not having a master's degree.

In advance of the 2012 A6 sedan's debut at the Geneva Motor Show, Audi has provided a 23-second teaser video. Despite the short video length, we can still make out a couple minor details about the new four-door luxury sedan.
One change that owners of the current-generation Audi A6 can appreciate about the new car is the 2012 A6's revised door pulls allowing people to grab from both above and below the handle. Otherwise, from what we can tell from this out-of-focus video, the A6 will offer large twin five-spoke wheels and vaguely resemble the new A8. A big, chrome-lined grille and LED daytime running lights will be part of the package, as well.
The new A7 Sportback's 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 making 300 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque will no doubt be offered as an option in the A6. Currently, the outgoing A6 offers a 3.2-liter V-6, a 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 (300 horsepower, 310 pound-feet of torque), and a 4.2-liter V-8.
Fuel economy should improve from the current car, which starts at 21/30 mpg city/highway in front-wheel-drive 3.2-liter V-6 form and 18/26 mpg with the 3.0-liter supercharged V-6 and all-wheel drive. A bit later, a hybrid A6 is expected to launch. Before that happens, though, you can keep it right here for all your Geneva updates until the show starts in March.

Traditionally in health care, bereavement interventions are anticipated to be provided in the community care setting (ie, the home, the church, or other such location) by home-based care organizations rather than in the acute care oncology setting. Belying this expectation is the confirmed documentation that, in multiple nations,1 the numbers of cancer patients who die at home and thus receive home-based professional care are in the minority (approximately one-fifth to one-third) compared with the numbers of adult and pediatric cancer patients who die in inpatient units, outpatient clinics, or nursing home settings. Further, the number of health care professionals who are formally prepared and available to provide home-based bereavement care for survivors of family members who died a cancer-related death is unknown, but in a recently released report from an organization providing nationwide statistics on bereavement care, one statistic was that only 4% of hospice paid staff are assigned to provide home or community-based bereavement care.2 Thus, the traditional expectation of bereavement care being made widely available by home-based care professionals is not supported by the statistics reported by home-based care organizations. In sum, because the majority of adult and pediatric cancer patients die in acute care settings and only a very small fraction of providers in home care organizations are officially assigned to provide bereavement care, it is likely that the most opportune setting to provide bereavement care for family members is in the acute care setting, where access to the families by health care professionals is highest. It may be that family members would find particular benefit to have bereavement care provided by the health care professionals who have consistently experienced the cancer care trajectory with them.
The potential impact of acute care-based bereavement interventions is not established at this time, but the outcomes of bereavement for family members are documented. Outcomes for bereaved parents include depression, first psychiatric hospitalizations, inability to return to employment, and a statistically higher likelihood of dying younger than parents who have not experienced the loss of a child.3-6 Outcomes for bereaved spouses and other family members related to the loss of an adult family member are similarly concerning.7,8 These outcomes have not been linked to whether the bereaved survivor (at the level of the individual family member or the family as a whole) did or did not receive bereavement care. In addition, if bereavement care had been received, the strength or dose of that care may not have been documented. According to the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization in America, the most typical bereavement interventions provided by home-based settings include 1 or more telephone calls, a letter, or a visit to 1 to 2 family members.2 This dose of intervention seems important but minimal, given the impact of the loss of a family member. The potential benefit of bereavement care could be realized for the individual family member, the emotional and economic welfare of the family (ie, coping, lost income), to the economy of a country (lost productivity), or to costs of a health care system secondary to hospitalizations of affected family members.
In these days of health care economic duress, it is almost unthinkable for a health care setting to take on an additional domain of care responsibility or intervention with unproven benefits until concrete, empirically based findings convincingly support the merit of such an adoption for the family, the setting, and the health care system as a whole. To persuade entire health care settings and systems to take on a new domain of care and intervention such as bereavement care, the costs, the methods, and the outcomes of doing so must be documented. We as oncology nurses and nurse researchers are well placed to grasp and document the emotional and economic importance of acute care-based bereavement care. We need to begin this movement and to measure its feasibility, acceptability, and its outcomes.
My very best to you.

Because one incumbent did not file to retain her seat, Friday's filing deadline has been extended to Wednesday.
Newhall County Water District board member Barbara Dore decided not to seek reelection.
B.J. Atkins and Maria Gutzeit are seeking to retain their seats.
For Atkins, it would be his second term.
"I enjoy the work involved - it's a challenge," he said. "Many of the skills I use as an environmental engineer are used on the water board."
Gutzeit joined the Newhall water board in 2003 when a vacated seat opened. She was reelected to the board to serve her first full term in 2005 and is seeking her second full term this year.
Being part of what she called a well-run agency is reason enough to make her third run for the board, Gutzeit said.
"I am running because I love the water district," she said. It's one of the best functioning forms of local government we have."
Michael Cruz is making his first run at the water board. He said he hopes to bring some fresh ideas to the district.
"Our community needs innovative approaches to become more self-reliant, overcome these challenges and meet our community's water needs," Cruz said.
Kathryn Colley has also filed to run in the Nov. 3 election but could not be reached for comment.
The candidates said they have specific issues they wish to tackle if elected.
"The most important issue is to make sure we have a plentiful water supply without raising rates," Gutzeit said.
Atkins said the agency will need to focus on broad issues affecting water supply - specifically the drought and the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.
"We need to address all the stressors placed on our system, especially those from the State Water Project," he said.
Cruz wants the district to look closely at local sources of water and conservation.
"One thing we as a community must do more and more is use recycled water," Cruz said. "If we can use recycled water for watering all public spaces, like park fields, road medians and hillsides, we can save a tremendous amount of water.
"This will pay for itself tenfold, if and when California reaches critical drought conditions," Cruz said.

China -- Michael S. Heath announced today that he will appear with Paul Madore, Director of the Maine Grassroots Coalition. They will hold a press conference in the Maine State House Hall of Flags at 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 17. 2013.
They will commend Governor Paul LePage for his recent plain-spoken and honest remarks which compared the political maneuvering of certain guileful politicians to the act of sodomy. The men will discuss their plan to restore common sense and sanity to Maine.
Madore and Heath have partnered together since 1991. They held back the pro-sodomy movement until 2005, when the political logjam broke, sweeping all before it. The vile tide of perversion which these forces unleashed is now at high-water mark, as sodomy and transgenderism have encroached on every institution in our state, in particular our public schools.
Heath served as the Iowa State Chairman of the Ron Paul for President campaign in 2011. Liberty advocates now lead the Iowa Republican Party. Madore was the overall Campaign Chairman for Ron Paul in Maine that year. Madore's leadership contributed to an absolute and overwhelming victory for Ron Paul at the Maine Republican convention.
Madore is a Catholic husband to one wife, father to nine children and 26 grandchildren. Heath, who was the Executive Director of the Christian Civic League of Maine from 1994 to 2009, has been married for 31 years and has three sons and one grandson.

The Spring Exhibition 2008
12 April – 1 June 2008
Charlottenborg Fonden is an institution in Danish cultural life that since 1857 has sought to promote the interests of Danish artists within the visual arts, architecture, art craft and design. For anyone interested in art, the Spring Exhibition is, without a doubt, its best-known activity. The majority of importantDanish artists has taken part in the 150-year history of the Spring Exhibition, so it is a tradition that has obligations. At a time when the world of art is becoming increasingly expansive and complex, we have chosen to re-think the Spring Exhibition and decided to give it a new, updated feel.
In cooperation with Kunsthal Charlottenborg (formerly Charlottenborg Udstillingbygning) Charlottenborg Fonden will in future experiment with the form of the Spring Exhibition. So future Spring Exhibitions will not resemble each other any more. We intend to experiment with various exhibition interiors and jury constellations, which will give each individual exhibition its own distinctive identity. In 2008, the curator for the exhibition will be Karim Rashid, one of the world's leading designers right now.
Karim Rashid, who was born in Egypt but since 1993 has lived and worked in New York, has been invited to lead the work of the jury (in cooperation with representatives from Charlottenborg Fonden and Kunsthal Charlottenborg). Karim Rashid will also give the exhibition a special form, which is sure to make the exhibition especially worth seeing.
The exhibition has been given the overall title "21", in the hope that it will put its finger on the pulse of the new 21st century within all the art forms linked to the work of Charlottenborg Fonden: the visual arts, architecture, art craft and design. This is completely in keeping with developments within the field of art in general, where hierarchies between the art forms are loosening up, being placed side by side and entering into dialogue with each other. For a long time, Karim Rashid has been working in the border area between art, architecture, design, fashion and interior design as an expression of a complete lifestyle, as evidenced in his book Design Your Self. That is why we have chosen him to give the new Spring Exhibition a special profile.
So we would like to encourage artists of all ages within all forms of expression to apply for the Spring Exhibition 2008 and help create a dynamic exhibition together with Karim Rashid.
Peter Holst Henckel, chairman, Charlottenborg Fonden
Bo Nilsson, director, Kunsthal Charlottenborg

A word of thanks to our university supporters ...
As we take time to share the Thanksgiving season with family, I want to express my thanks for you – our university donors. Without your support, both financially and through prayer, a George Fox education wouldn't be possible for many of our students.
Last week, our students and staff took the time to sign a "Thank You" card in the quad. Below is a video of that event. It includes words of gratitude from our students that I believe you will find encouraging.

Thank you again for your role in encouraging our students to be Christ followers and equipping them to be world changers!
May your Thanksgiving be filled with abundant blessings.

"Desde Temple Update, esto es Update Ahora. Yo soy Janelle Roedán con lo último en noticias."
That's how Janelle Roedán, a junior media studies and production major, kicks off a new Spanish-language newscast from the anchor desk in TV Studio 3 of the Kal and Lucille Rudman Media Production Center at the School of Media and Communication.
Update Ahora is new, Spanish language service of SMC's long–running weekly student newscast, Temple Update.
The daily news capsule grew out of Update Now, a 90-second daily news brief launched during the fall 2012 semester to supplement Temple Update.
Both versions of the news brief are posted on YouTube and air on TUTV at least six times a day from Monday through Thursday.
"Update Ahora is needed at Temple because our school is so diverse—it's one of the main things that you notice when walking through our campus," Roedán says. "I wanted to embrace that diversity by creating a news program in a language other than English."
Peter Jaroff, assistant professor of media studies and production and executive producer of Temple Update, says the new programming opens up new ways Temple students can participate in the show.
"We are very happy to provide Spanish speaking Temple students with an opportunity to both serve their community and to demonstrate what they can produce with their initiative, hard work and creativity," he says.
It's a community that expands well beyond campus. Roedán's parents don't speak English, so this is her way of allowing her and other students' family members to stay up-to-date on Temple news.
Roedán has always dreamed of being a Spanish broadcaster, but hopes to integrate both languages in her future career.
"In my opinion there is currently a large separation between Spanish and American media," she says. "I see the future of mass media as a convergence of both cultures. I plan on being the person delivering your news each and every day."
Assistant Professor Paul Gluck, general manager of TUTV, says, "airing this suite of news programs from the Temple Update team is not only part of our core academic responsibility, it allows us to meet the needs of our Spanish-language viewers. We are working to find more opportunities to serve diverse audiences in the months ahead."

TEA Party Maui will host editor Walden
Andrew Walden, editor of the Hawai'i Free Press, will speak to TEA Party Maui beginning at 6:30 p.m. Thursday in the Kalama Heights Garden Room in Kihei.
Walden will share his ideas for conservative activism in Hawaii and talk about mainstream media bias, the news release about the event said. The Hawai'i Free Press is an independent, locally owned online newspaper covering political, social, cultural and economic issues both local and international. It offers a view based on free enterprise, small government and individual liberty as a counterpoint to what is presented in the rest of Hawaii print and television media, the news release said.
The Kalama Heights Garden Room is located at 101 Kanani Road. The party will hold a business meeting following the talk.

A Lafitte man has succumbed to injuries he received in a traffic accident that occurred in Crown Point in May. Daniel Klaffer, 71, died at the LSU Interim Public Hospital in New Orleans on Monday, according to Trooper Melissa Matey, spokeswoman for the State Police.
The crash occurred May 18 around 12:15 p.m. at the intersection of Barataria Boulevard and Leo Kerner Parkway. Steve Phelps, 26, of Summit, Miss., hit Klaffer's Chevrolet Malibu as Klaffer was heading northbound on Leo Kerner Parkway, Matey said.
The force of the impact rolled Phelp's truck onto its roof. Phelps was wearing a seat belt and received only minor injuries. But Klaffer, who was not buckled in, was critically injured, Matey said.
Speed and impairment weren't considered factors in the crash. The State Police have not received results of blood and toxicology tests.
Phelps was initially booked with negligent injuring and failure to yield to a stop sign. But Matey said he could now face negligent homicide. Investigators will meet with the district attorney's office about any new charges.
Matey wanted to remind motorists and their passengers to buckle up when riding in vehicles. Seat belts can cut down on the chances of death of serious injury in crashes. It's the law in Louisiana, but Matey said it's also the single most effective thing motorists can do to protect themselves in an accident.

So do you think Katz will complain about the talent on the Dragons again this season? I think they're looking fairly strong for 2010--especially when it comes to the starting pitching.
Here are just a couple problems with this roster:Code:POS AGE* NAME C 21.9 Mark Fleury 1B 24.3 Chris Richburg 2B 21.4 Yen-Wen Kuo 3B 23.5 Carlos Mendez (blocked by Nefi Soto) SS 20.1 D.D. Gregorius LF 22.7 Sean Conner CF 21.0 Alex Oliveras RF 23.6 Andrew Means C 21.0 Jordan Wideman (or Chris McMurray) C 21.2 Chase Weems 3B 23.6 Frank Pfister SS 23.0 Shane Carlson OF 22.2 Tony Brown SP 20.4 Kyle Lotzkar SP 20.4 J.C. Sulbaran SP 21.1 Evan Hildenbrandt SP 19.8 Tyler Cline SP 21.0 Oscar Castro SP 22.5 Tzu-Kai Chiu CL 21.8 Brad Boxberger RP 22.3 Pedro Villarreal RP 23.4 Justin Freeman RP 24.5 Mike Bohana RP 21.6 Ezequiel Infante RP 22.4 Josh Beal RP 22.2 Hector Santana RP 23.4 Justin Walker *age as of 4/1/2010
No more than four players may be 23 years old or older, so I think we'll see a few of these guys get cut (Bohana, Pfister, Carlson) or promoted (Walker, Freeman, Mendez).
If Carlos Mendez gets promoted to A+ like he deserves, the only third baseman left is Frank Pfister, who should probably be cut. Both Oliver Santos and Will Stramp are 23+ years old (and devoid of talent), so the 3B situation might become a mess. Maybe someone from the DSL (Miguel Chacoa, Ariel Baez) will get a shot.

Those chickens are delicious.
If they are the traditional ovens I'm thinking of (kinda egg-shaped, right?) they have very small amounts of charcoal burning at the bottom, that provides for long consistent heat that is pretty even throughout the oven.
Taiwan doesn't have much corn- they seem to eat it roasted on the cob or use it as a topping for pizza, or similar condiment-like applications. I don't think they have the surplus that would lead them to feed chickens with it. There are other more plentiful local crops that would probably be more available. The Taiwanese are very much about fresh local foods, and saving/making money wherever possible.
I'm not sure why the chicken was so fatty, but in Taiwan, breast meat is significantly cheaper than thighs or legs. They appreciate it there.
