"I take risks in the game. And if you get caught with your hand in the cookie jar, you go home. But I'm well aware of that, and I'll take the risk all day long, to get farther in the game."
– Russell Hantz, Heroes vs. Villains
Weep for Russell Swan.
He gave his life for Survivor. He actually physically died, was resurrected in a cryogenic chamber owned by Mark Burnett, and had every reason to expect Survivor: Philippines to be his march to glory. Now he can only pray to the empty skies, and cry the divinity's name in vain:
Why, O Probst, on a season with such athletic males, did you saddle Matsing with the doughy anchor that was Zane?
Why, O Probst, did you cast Russell on the rainiest season in recent memory, when you knew that rain was his kryptonite?
And why, O Probst, did you put him on a tribe with the season's two sharpest new contestants, when anybody else might have been his ally?
I've long suspected that strong returning players inhibit new Survivors from developing their strategic skills. Savvy gamers are incentivized to stay in the returnee's shadow while he (always he) navigates the tribe to the end – rather than breaking out and making moves of their own. Look at Sophie in South Pacific: She was a smart player whose best move at every turn was to make no move at all. What might she have done on a season without Coach?
This season proves that point, as Russell's spectacular flameout forges two of Survivor's best strategists, Malcolm and Denise [I'll call the duo Manise]. If Boston Rob were on this season, they would have been the first two out.
Manise wins a co-Fishy award for the way they gull Russell with their plots and counter-plots. Each of them approaches Russell, and suggests they vote out the other. Russell, who was frantically looking for the idol, suddenly believes he's the swing vote.
Keeping your targets busy by involving them in fake plans is one of the most reliable ways to blindside them. Nobody on Survivor ever truly knows their tribe position. But everybody hopes that the things people are saying to them are true. By feeding someone in such abject despair a little hope, Manise keeps Russell on the hook long enough to eliminate him.
It may seem like excessive manipulation, to work Russell over so hard. Don't you understand he died for this game? But it'' that attention to detail that distinguishes the best gamers.
TandangOh, Pete.
Things were going so well for you last week. You had flipped Tandang's politics on their head. You'd made yourself tribe leader. And you'd achieved what past pretty boys, like One World's Matt Quinlan, never could: You figured out that 4 is greater than 2. It must be that background in engineering!
But now you're getting cocky. Pete's cute plan of planting the idol clue on RC's belongings has a great TV payoff. Abi is explosive! RC is wounded! Artis is also somewhere around!
Pete watched Russell Hantz on TV spin gold out of chaos, and now he wants to try. But is it really a good strategy? Tribe leaders usually want to keep the peace so that nothing upsets the delicate interpersonal politics.
Abi and the rest of Tandang were already fed up with RC. By setting off his explosive Brazilian firecracker, Pete may be spending his ordinance too quickly. I could easily see Abi alienating the rest of the Tandang tribe with her outbursts. Could Michael, Artis, and Lisa make an Elders Alliance just for some peace and quiet?
Pete's lucky that RC isn't trying to flip the script again. She's too thoroughly adopted a victim's mentality. "If I knew what I did wrong, I could apologize," she says.
It's a lesson she should have learned in high school. You don't beat the mean girls by trying to make nice.

SYCODE - OBJ Export for AutoCAD :
OBJ Export for AutoCAD is a Wavefront (.obj) file export plug-in for AutoCAD. This plug-in gives AutoCAD the ability to export geometric data from AutoCAD to ASCII and Binary OBJ files.
OBJ Export for AutoCAD extracts facet data from 3D Face, Polygon Mesh, PolyFace Mesh and 3D Solid objects in the active AutoCAD drawing and exports it to a OBJ file. 3D Solids are tessellated into triangular faces. The level of tessellation can be controlled by adjusting the resolution slider in the OBJ Export for SolidWorks options dialog box. A lower resolution will yield coarse meshes (lesser faces), whereas a higher resolution will result in finer meshes (more faces).
OBJ Export for AutoCAD is very easy to use. Once installed, it must be loaded into the AutoCAD environment. There are simple instructions for this in the ReadMe file. Once loaded it adds new commands to AutoCAD's existing commands and a new submenu called "OBJExport" to the AutoCAD menu containing these newly added commands.

The OBJ File Format
The OBJ file format is a geometry definition file format first developed by Wavefront Technologies for its Advanced Visualizer animation package. The file format is open and has been adopted by other 3D graphics application vendors, making it a universally accepted geometry file format. The OBJ file format is a simple data format that represents 3D geometry alone - namely, the position of each vertex, the texture coordinate associated with a vertex, the normal at each vertex, and the faces that make each polygon.
Sycode Software Licensing TermsOur licenses are single computer licenses and are locked to each computer they are installed on. Basically, the license key is specific to the computer's Host ID (the MAC address of the computer), and will not work on another computer. The installer picks up the physical MAC address of the network card connected to the computer which is basically Ethernet adapter Network Connect Adapter. So unless you change your network card, the key will always work even if you reinstall your operating system. If your internal network is periodically assigning a different Host ID to your computer, then please find a solution for this with your IT department.

TRENTON A New Jersey appellate court has ruled against a former assistant Hunterdon County prosecutor's request for records that he says would bolster his claim that he was fired for protesting corruption by Christie administration officials.
Ben Barlyn filed a wrongful termination lawsuit in 2012, claiming he was fired after objecting to a decision by the state Attorney General's Office to drop charges against three members of the county Sheriff's Office.
State officials said the indictments were flawed. Barlyn alleges that they were dismissed to protect allies of Gov. Christie - a claim the governor's office has rejected.

US-INTERNATIONAL Summary
Oct 1, 2011, 11:05 p.m.
Yemen official decries call for Saleh to quit
SANAA (Reuters) - The United States showed a lack of respect for democracy and its partners in fighting terrorism by renewing its call for Yemeni President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down, a Yemeni official said on Saturday. Washington made its call for Saleh to resign on the day it announced that a CIA drone strike had killed Anwar al-Awlaki, a U.S.-born cleric regarded as one of al Qaeda's most eloquent English propagandists, in Yemen's northern al-Jawf province.
Tunisia opens first election campaign since uprising
TUNIS (Reuters) - Tunisia's cities were decorated with posters for hundreds of candidates from scores of new parties when campaigning began on Saturday for what is billed as the first free election in the country's history. Nine months after an uprising that deposed former President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and inspired the Arab Spring, Tunisians elect politicians on October 23 to an assembly that will rewrite the country's constitution.
NATO captures senior Haqqani commander in Afghanistan
KABUL (Reuters) - NATO-led forces said on Saturday that they had captured the senior commander for the Haqqani network in Afghanistan, Haji Mali Khan, during an operation in eastern Paktia province earlier in the week. Khan is "the uncle of Siraj and Badruddin Haqqani ... one of the highest ranking members of the Haqqani network and a revered elder of the Haqqani clan," the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said in a statement.
Red Cross gets medicine into Libya's besieged Sirte
SIRTE (Reuters) - Aid workers from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) brought medical supplies into ousted Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's besieged hometown of Sirte on Saturday as fears grew that a humanitarian disaster was unfolding there. The chairman of the ruling National Transitional Council (NTC), Mustafa Abdel Jalil, said its forces had called a two-day truce to allow civilians to leave as people streamed out of Sirte by the hundreds.
Meredith ignored in "media fog" around Amanda Knox
PERUGIA, Italy (Reuters) - Murdered Briton Meredith Kercher has been forgotten in the "fog" of a tireless media and public relations campaign to free the American student convicted of killing her, a lawyer for the victim's family told Reuters. Seattle student Amanda Knox and her Italian ex-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito are appealing an Italian court verdict that found them guilty of murdering 21-year-old Kercher in 2007 during a drug-fueled erotic game that turned violent.
Pro-Assad forces regain rebel Syrian town: agency
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Syrian troops regained control of the central town of Rastan, the official news agency said on Saturday, after the most prolonged fighting between the army and insurgents in a six-month uprising. "Calm and security have returned to Rastan after security police backed by army units entered the town and confronted the terrorist groups who have terrified its inhabitants," the agency said.
Philippines mops up after two typhoons in a week
MANILA (Reuters) - Philippine authorities were struggling on Sunday to reach communities in northern provinces of Luzon island that were hit by two powerful typhoons in less than week, as concern grew about a third storm forming off the coast. The national disaster agency said one person had been killed when Typhoon Nalgae struck on Saturday, although there were reports of more deaths from provincial officials.

Dr. Rick Forno discusses cyberwar on NPR
Posted Tuesday, May 27th, 2014
In recent days, the United States and China have traded accusations about each nation's alleged (or actual) espionage activities in cyberspace. Moreover, high-profile events like Stuxnet and recurring high-profile cyber-attacks such as the Target data breach continue to keep 'cyber' and cybersecurity issues in the news.
Today, CSEE's Dr. Rick Forno, Cybersecurity GPD and Assistant Director of the UMBC Center for Cybersecurity, was a guest on PRI's 'The World' where he discussed issues related to cyberwarfare, cybersecurity and the international application of cyberpower.

What is a primary source? It's a piece of paper containing information about an event created at or very soon after the time of the event. A birth certificate, or marriage license for example.
Mind you now, such documentation may still contain some errors, but it is the best record we have of any given event.
So if that's what a primary source is, then what's a secondary source? The easy way to explain it is that a secondary source is a document that's not a primary source. Some examples might be another person's family tree or a published genealogy.
How about a death certificate? Actually, a death certificate is both a primary and secondary source. The information about the decedent (the dead person)such as cause of death will be recorded soon after the event, but other information (birth date, parents' names) is given well after the person's birth and is subject to error. That's why it's important to collect both birth and death certificates for your ancestors.
Here's a real life case from my own research: My widowed grandmother remarried and when she died, her second husband gave her married name as her maiden name and gave her father the same last name.
I knew it was wrong as soon as I saw it. But, imagine if it were an ancestor further up on my tree, one with whom I was not familiar. Further research would be difficult because I'd be looking for a person with the wrong name.
If you use a secondary source, you should always try and get your hands on the primary source it's based on, double checking to make sure the information is correct.

Hi, sap gurus,
In pricing procedure determination why we use condition type
example :-
sales area + doc pricing proc+ cus pric pro+ pricing procedure+ (*condition type* )
can any one give me sample business processs my mail id is
Thanks and regards
dear nishad
there is no field called as condition type in PRICING PROCEDURE DETERMINATION
Pricing proc is determined with the combination of
Sales Organization + Distribution Channel + Division + Document Pricing Procedure + Customer Pricing Procedure
regarding usage of condition
Condition Types with Access Sequence attached to it can store condition Records
Edited by: WISH on Mar 13, 2008 7:04 AM
Pricing Procedure :
It starts with an understanding of the factors that influences the Price. Lets say it depends on Customer and Material. With this understanding now we will start with the Table where we will pass the above parameters. There is a table 5 which already has Customer and Material so we can now copy and rename it or use the same table in our Pricing Procedure.
T Code VOK0
Step 1. Define/Choose your Table (with the requirement parameters that influence the price)
Step 2. Define your Access Sequence and include the above Table in your Access Sequence
Step 3. Define your Condition Type (There are four Price Types Basic Price, Discount, Freight and Tax) and include your Access Seq. Its always better to copy the Price Types provided by SAP.
Step 4. Now comes your Pricing Procedure where you include include Condition Types and format.
Step 5. Now comes Procedure Determination where you specify the Document Pricing Procedure and Customer Pricing Procedure along with Sales Organisation, Distribution Channel.
Step 6. Maintain Condition Records for your Condition Types
I guess you can make it 8 Steps by dividing some of the main steps. Few important things to note is following..
1. XD01 - Create Customer - Always ensure that you pick the right Customer Pricing Procedure from here.
2. VA01 - Sales Order - Ensure that you have the right Document Pricing Procedure from here
3. While Creating Access Sequence, check your Fields and ensure that they appear with any warning (Highlighted in Red)
4. Do not forget to mention your Access Sequence while defining your Condition Type
5. Always remember that your Procedure Determination has only Basic Price as Condition Type
6. Do not forget to mention the Range (From To) while creating your Pricing Procedure.
reward if Helps for all ur queries
Dear ram ram,,,
When u maintaing PP.............It's optional to maintain Condition type.
If you maintain condition type in Pricing procedure.....While doing the sales order .click on line item ..for that line item you can see the price of the material.
if you not maintain it won't appear....in sales order line item...
if have any doubt on this plzz post query
you can enter the value of that pricing condition in the sales order screen at the item level. If you drag the scroll bar towards the right sid you will find a column amount. Here you can enter the pricing condition value without going to item conditions tab if you mark this conditin type at OVKK.
sadhu kishore
I think u mean the condition type field in the OVKK (pricing proced. determination) screen. If i am right,
If u mention a condition type in the particular field available in OVKK, U can see the value of the field in the sales order item overview screen.
When u scroll the mouse right, after the entry of material name and qty, u will find the value of the condition type and name(order overview screen).
In general, we can give PR00 at OVKK screen.
Try to change the condition type at OVKK and enter a new one Ex: K004 in the OVKK screen.
Miantain the condition record for K004 at VK11.
Create sales order and goto double line overview screen, u can be able to see the value of the K004 condition type screen.
Hope it is useful..
Reward if useful..
Hi nishad
In pricing procedure determination OVKK, we give a condition type. so if you enter that condition type , that condition type appears in the line item .in the sales order. and
if you have not maintained conditon record for that condition type , it gives an error message telling " pricing error missing" when you create a sales order. so instead of going to item -> conditons and entering the value for that condition type directly you can enter the value in the line item itself
sales orgn + dist channel + divn + cuPP + duPP RVAA01 PR00
So if you have not maintained condition record for PR00 for any material and if you have entered that material in the sales order it will give a message "pricing error missing" , so instead of going to
item data - > condtions - > entering the PR00 value, directly you can enter the PR00 value at the line item itself

Dear Ram,
Please check the link:
Pricing Procedure:
Determination of Pricing Procedure:In SD, Pricing Procedure is determined based on Sales Area (Sales Organization + Distribution Centre + Division) + Customer Pricing Procedure + Document Pricing Procedure through T.Code: OVKK. Sales Area is determined in Sales Order Header Level. Customer Pricing Procedure is determined from Customer Master. Document Pricing Procedure is determined from Sales Document Type / Billing Type (if configured). Once the pricing procedure is determined, Condition records are fetched. If appropriate condition records are found, the price is determined. If Mandatory pricing condition is missing, system will through an error message.
Configuration of Pricing Procedure:
Step 1:
Condition table (T.Code: V/04): If existing condition table meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition table. Considering the requirement for new condition table, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Table (select the required fields combination, which will store condition record).
Step 2:
Access Sequence (T.Code: V/07): If existing access sequence meets the requirement, we need not create a new access sequence. Considering the requirement for new sequence, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Access Sequence (Access sequence is made up of Accesses (Tables) & the order of priority in which it is to be accessed. Here we assign the condition table to access sequence.
Step 3:
Condition Type (T.Code: V/06): If existing condition type meets the requirement, we need not create a new condition type. Considering the requirement for new condition type, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Condition Type. It is always recommended to copy an existing similar condition type & make the neccessary changes. Here we assign Access sequence to Condition type.
Step 4:
a. Pricing Procedure (T.Code: V/08): It is recommended to copy a similar pricing procedure & make the neccesary changes in new pricing procedure. Pricing Procedure is a set of condition type & arranged in the sequence in which it has to perform the calculation. Considering the requirement for new Pricing Procedure, the configuration will be done in spro as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Maintain Pricing Procedure.
b. Pricing Procedure (T.Code: VOK0): After maintaining the pricing procedure the next step will be determination of pricing procedure. Configuration for determining pricing procedure in SPRO is as follows: IMG --> Sales & Distribution --> Basic Function --> Pricing Control --> Pricing Procedure --> Determine Pricing Procedure.
5. Condition record (T.Code: VK11 / VK12): Condition record is a master data, which is required to be maintained by Core team / person responsible from the client. During new implementation, the condition records can be uploaded using tools like SCAT, LSMW, etc. Condition Record is maintained in T.Code: VK11 / VK12, which are captured in Sales Order & Billing.
Also check document pricing procedure in Sales Document Type (T.Code: VOV8 - Sales order Type, VOFA: Billing Type (If Required)), customer pricing procedure in Customer Master Data (T.Code: XD02), ... are in place.

This is for the company. For the TV series, see Spotless (TV series).
|This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. (June 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Spotless is an Australian-owned, managed and operated integrated services company providing cleaning, catering, laundry services, facilities management and non-core business support to Australia and New Zealand markets.
The company employs more than 35000 people and provides services to private and public sector clients within health; education; leisure, sports and entertainment; defence; government; business and industry; resources; utilities; and laundries.[1]
In August 2012, Spotless was acquired by Australia's largest and most active private equity player, Pacific Equity Partners (PEP). The firm sold off Spotless' international operations, delisted the company from the Australian and New Zealand stock exchanges and commenced operating as a private entity.
Under the new ownership, Bruce Dixon was appointed as CEO and the business restructured. This involved tailoring the organisations services to market sectors ensuring clients could have one Spotless management contact. Dixon's new direction for Spotless also included open communication and pushing decision making and responsibility down into the business. As a result, no industrial relations disputes have taken place since PEP's takeover with the new approach empowering employees across the business' entire operations.[1]
Spotless Group could be returning to the stock exchange as early as 2014 in an initial public offering worth $1.5 billion to $2 billion.[2] It would be a remarkably quick turnaround for private equity owners Pacific Equity Partners, who took the company private for $723 million in August last year. Sources close to the company said earnings improved substantially over the past year.[3]
On September 2, 2013, the local organising committee of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015, which will be hosted by New Zealand and Australia, appointed a joint venture of Nine Live and Spotless Group to provide hospitality services for the tournament.[4] The services include sales, marketing and event management of the tournament's hospitality program.
Spotless has become the focus of a high-profile industrial relations test case in Australia[5] after claims of bullying and harassment surrounding Spotless' use of individual flexible agreements (IFAs), were raised by members of United Voice.[6] United Voice is the union that represents contract cleaners employed by Spotless at shopping centres, CBD buildings and other privately and publicly owned buildings.
The case will be heard by the Federal Court of Australia, where United Voice will argue that Spotless is in breach of the Fair Work Act as it leaves cleaners worse off than they would be without the IFAs.
United Voice will also tell Fair Work Australia and the Federal Court that cleaners have reported that they have been unduly pressured into signing the agreements and were allegedly told if they refuse to sign the IFAs they were warned that their hours would be cut or that they would be refused overtime hours[7] which they have enjoyed under the Cleaning Services Award.
United Voice will also claim Spotless misrepresented the IFAs to its workers. The Union says Spotless' use of IFAs in these circumstances is contrary to the spirit and intent of the Individual Flexibility provisions under the Fair Work Act and that Spotless are trying to re-introduce WorkChoices AWAs by the back door.[8]
The case was due to go to before Fair Work Australia on the 18th of April 2011, however, Spotless did not attend the voluntary mediation.
Fair Work Resolution[edit]
In April 2012, Spotless agreed to audit a representative group of cleaners' employment records to ensure they were paid properly and receiving their full entitlements.[9]
The Fair Work Ombudsman welcomed Spotless' decision to sign a Pro-Active Compliance Deed and congratulated them on their demonstration of corporate responsibility.[9]
Spotless will provide a report on the findings from their audit to the Fair Work Ombudsman.[9]
Spotless and United Voice now have a professional relationship based on a much better understanding of each other's respective positions.

I was surprised to read in the ARCHIVES that next November's issue will feature articles on "Alternative Medicine."1 I assume that your intention is a critical approach to this subject. I was wondering, however, whether you realize that with this presentation you unintentionally legitimize alternative medicine in a journal issued under the auspices of the American Medical Association. The very name of "alternative medicine" implies the existence of another medicine whose theory is not based on science and whose practice does not follow the time-honored art of diagnosis and therapy. Furthermore, "alternative medicine" is not practiced by medical graduates and does not follow the principles set by Hippocrates. The purpose of this presentation is not clear and its implications will be harmful to the profession and our patients. Your initiative is particularly irritating when one considers the chronic conditions so frequently seen in pediatric patients and the despair their parents are driven to in seeking a cure. After all, if there is no "alternative law" or "alternative engineering," why should our profession allow the laxity of attitude to recognize an "alternative"?

The star, who is in Sydney with husband Joel Madden, a judge on The Voice Australia, spent a family day at the Taronga Zoo with children Harlow, 4, and Sparrow, 2.
They met a friendly giraffe and took turns feeding the animal carrots by hand. Both young and old seemed thrilled by the encounter: The children were googly-eyed, while Richie looked awed as she took photos of the giraffe on her phone.
Later, the group had a special meeting with another zoo resident, Yindi the koala.
"Thanks [Taronga] Zoo for having us today with the kids," Madden Tweeted. "They are still buzzing from it. Can't get enough. We'll be back fo sho."

Fairview's Westcott makes stunning run into District 10 singles title match
The Fairview boys tennis team never has had a District 10 Class AA singles finalist quite like Ben Westcott.
Not by a long shot, which Westcott definitely was.
The Tigers' freshman had to win a match during Saturday morning's district qualifier at Pennbriar Athletic Club just to get his name listed in the main tournament's preliminary brackets. He then proceeded to win five more times, with three of those victories coming against seeded players.
The last of those seeds was No. 8 Nate Sandberg of Warren. Sandberg bid to join Dragons teammate Shane Burns back at Pennbriar for Monday's 3:30 p.m. AA championship match, but Westcott prevented that by capping his marathon day with a 6-4, 6-1 semifinal victory.
"I tried to play my game," Westcott said, "and it worked out well."
Ross Parisi's 2003 run to the AA district title was the closest scenario that Fairview coach Rick Sertz could compare to what Westcott did Saturday.
Parisi, a sophomore, beat Mercyhurst Prep's Michael Amory 6-0, 6-3 in their final 10 years ago. However, Parisi was still seeded seventh, a perk that Westcott wasn't granted.
Instead, Westcott had to upset No. 3 Matt Welker of Grove City 8-2 in the first round, No. 6 Trevor Osborne of Harbor Creek 8-1 in the quarterfinals and then Sandberg in the semis.
"I've seen freshmen come through before," Sertz said, "but I'm not sure I've ever seen a freshman as calm who's reached this stage and their game isn't even complete. Ben's got a lot of things he can add to his game over the next year that will make him even more of a complete player."
Westcott wasn't the only Fairview freshman who experienced an incredible district debut.
No. 5 seed Jon Oskin doubled up Matt Sandberg, the No. 4 seed from Warren, 8-4 in the quarters. He tried to pull off an even bigger upset against Burns in their semi, but the Warren senior's size and experience as the defending champion helped him avert that en route to a 6-3, 6-1 win.
Can Westcott cap his unprecedented run with a historic upset? His comment about that happening matched his placid persona.
"I really don't have any expectations," Westcott said. "I just want to play to the best of my ability."
Cathedral Prep's players, coaches and fans were long gone by the time Westcott's long day concluded. The team was heavily assured of an all-Rambler Class AAA championship match even before Saturday's semis.
Prep advanced seniors Nicholas Ward and Michal Prenovitz, the tournament's first and second seeds, as well as sophomore Jonathan Prichard into that round. The only other player who made it that far was third seed T.J. DeSanto of McDowell.
Prenovitz, though, ruined any hope of a Ramblers-Trojans rivalry match in Monday's final thanks to his 6-3, 6-0 victory over DeSanto. He'll take on Ward for the AAA title, which Ward claimed last season.
"It should be some good tennis Monday," Ward said. "I think it'll be tough (facing a teammate), but when it comes right down to it you've just got to play it like any other match."
Ward got a preview of what Monday should be like by playing Prichard in the other semi. He recorded service breaks midway through each set for a 6-2, 6-3 win.
This will be the second straight season that Ward and Prenovitz meet at districts. Ward won 6-3, 6-3 when they played in the 2012 semifinals.

Don't Ask Julianne Moore About Her KidsKacy Faulconer
Gorgeous and still acting at age 52, Julianne Moore opens up about aging, work, and motherhood in the June issue of DuJour.
Moore is the proud mom of Caleb, 15 and Liv, 11.
"Motherhood," Moore says, "was something that I always wanted to do. I didn't know if I'd get married—I just didn't innately feel like that was something I could be goal-oriented about—but I knew that I wanted to have children."
But she's not so keen to give sound bites about being a mom.
"Do we have to talk about parenthood? I don't mind, but I do think it's an extremely profound experience, something that's difficult to encapsulate in a single interview."
She also notes that men are never asked about their kids our their age, which seems sexist.
"Men aren't asked about age.Men aren't asked about their children. Not that these things aren't important, but I do feel like it becomes reductive," she says, "when a woman's life becomes, 'Talk to me about your kids and how you feel about plastic surgery.'‰"
"I just think it's boring!" she says. It's not boring to me! I love hearing about famous people's experiences with parenting. It's something kind of universal that we can all relate to and go, "they're just like us!"
We'll see what kind of a mom Julianne Moore is in her upcoming movie, Carrie. I have a feeling it won't be boring.

BOY, OH BOY. WHEN HILARY SWANK ASCENDED THE STAGE IN A flowing Randolph Duke gown to collect her Best Actress Oscar, many gasped: The star of the gender-bending drama Boys Don't Cry was a knockout. For her riveting portrayal of Brandon Teena, the Nebraska youth who was born female but lived as a male, Swank, 25, submitted herself to a barber and strapped her breasts down under baggy flannel shirts. The utterly convincing result? "When some people met her on the set, they thought she was just another guy in the room," says costar Brendan Sexton III, whose ex-con character buys into the deception. "Sometimes I even thought of her as a boy. Hilary has a strong jaw and strong cheekbones, very good things to have as either a woman or a man." Swank, a former competitive swimmer and gymnast from Bellingham, Wash., was also up for some serious male bonding. "She is definitely tough," says Sexton. "We had to wrestle in the movie, and she was feisty." The 57" Swank has had to be. At 16, she moved to L.A. to pursue acting, accompanied by her mother, Judy, 51, an executive secretary, then separated from Swank's father, Stephen, 52, a National Guardsman. For a time the two were so impoverished that they lived out of their Oldsmobile Delta '88. Eventually, Swank landed parts in 1992's Buffy the Vampire Slayer and 1994's The Next Karate Kid. She had no trouble snaring a starring role with actor Chad Lowe. At a 1992 party, "I saw her and saw our future in her eyes," says Lowe, 32, who married Swank five years later. "She had the most beautiful eyes I'd ever seen. They speak volumes about her character." Aaron Spelling thought so too and gave Swank a recurring role on the 1997-98 season of Beverly Hills, 90210. "She is a real presence," he says. "Understated but gorgeous." For his part, Brendan Sexton can still recall the moment he first saw Swank in a dress. "It was at a party near the end of the movie's shoot," he says. "I was blown away. She was so beautiful." And definitely not a boy.

Christians in Nigeria say their government isn't doing enough to protect them from militant Muslims. Thousands of Christians have been killed in recent attacks -- especially in northern and central Nigeria.
Several human rights groups have called on America and the United Nations to intervene.
One of the worst attacks in recent years occurred March 7. Unlike many previous raids on Christian villages, militant Muslims attacked the village of Dogo Nashawa late at night, instead of during the day.
"When you attack people who are sleeping, innocent people who are unprepared, that's a massacre," said Emmanuel Ogebe of Advocates International.
Many villagers were hacked to death or burned alive in their houses and children as young as five years of age were among the 500 Christians that were murdered.
There was another first -- many of those who survived said the militants leading the attack were firing AK-47 assault rifles.
"It's a whole new level, completely that we haven't seen before," Ogebe said. "They are nomads whose weapon of choice is machetes and bows and arrows. So, we want to understand how they got this sophisticated weapons."
The Nigerian government promised to investigate, punish the perpetrators and act to help prevent future incidents.
Despite those assurances, there was another attack against a Christian village last October. Again, in the middle of the night, automatic weapons were used.
Mark Lipdo arrived on the scene shortly after the raid.
"I got there about 4 a.m. and 3:02 what we saw were six people massacred," Lipdo said. "In a pool of their blood and houses were set ablaze. About 21 houses were burnt down and then there were gunshots, like holes of bullets through the doors."
Lipdo said he talked to many survivors -- including a man who explained what happened to his family.
"His house was set ablaze as his family was trying to escape," Lipdo added. "His wife was killed in the presence of his children. And of his three of his children, one little one was about five-years-old, was burned alive trying to escape."
Most of the recent attacks have occurred in central Nigeria -- in the Plateau state. Twelve of Nigeria's northern states are ruled by Shariah or Islamic law.
Dr. David Carling is a missionary to Nigeria. He said Plateau state is a key battleground.
"It's standing in the way of this jihadic desire to bring Islam into the whole country," Carling said. "So, they are unleashing everything and it's linked-unfortunately it's link with outside agencies and forces."
Carling first came to Nigeria in 1958, serving as a medical missionary. He suggested Islamists have become more violent and agressive in recent years, because Nigeria is crucial to their plans to spread Islam throughout Africa.
"Everything has been unleashed in a horrendous way in Nigeria," Carling said. "It is actually a strategic nation, no doubt about that."
"No one has been tried and prosecuted for any of the thousands, literally thousands of deaths that have occurred in Nigeria in all of the years that we've had this sort of crisis," Ogebe said. "Our objective is to end the impunity. There has to be a point when we say no, enough is enough, we are not going to have this anymore in this country. There must be consequences for taking the lives of people."
What should Christians around the world do?
"We can pray, we can support, we can understand and obviously there are huge responses needed financially as well but that's something that the Lord needs to lay on people's hearts," Carling said.
Mark Lipdo agreed with Carling, but he believes an important mission for his Stefanos Foundation is to bring forgiveness.
"Our aim is to enable the Christians in Nigeria to learn to say we have forgiven the perpetrators," Lipdo said. "If we don't do that, then we are cheated twice. Because apart from the hurts, apart from the killings, and the lives that are lost and properties that are lost we also lose the values, the core value of Christianity which is love."

Murder in the Cathedral, a poetic drama in two parts, with a prose sermon interlude, and a chorus in the style of Ancient Greek drama, was poet T S Eliot's most successful play. It was performed at Canterbury Cathedral in 1935 and published the same year.
It is set in December 1170, and tells of the assassination by four knights of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, apparently ordered by his king and formerly close friend, Henry II. His martyrdom led to him being created Saint Thomas Becket.
This photograph from the 1953 Old Vic production is of Robert Donat, kneeling, as Thomas Becket, with William Squire behind him playing one of the Temptations which Becket must withstand in the course of the play. The show, produced by Robert Helpmann, met with considerable critical acclaim as 'one of the most important and impressive productions to date' (The Stage). Critics hailed film star Donat's return to the stage in a role for which 'his moving voice and presence and his unassuming nobility fit him ... almost perfectly'.

La Tormenta is a character created by the American artist Gronk (1954- ) for a series of paintings and performances. She is a composite of many roles: the glamorous spy played by Ingrid Bergman in the film Notorious; Electra, the mythical princess who mourns her father; St Rose of Lima, who scarred her face to be less beautiful; and Patssi Valdez, a teenaged girl from East Los Angeles dressed in thrift store finery for a movie without film. In Gronk's 1994 woodcut, Tormenta parts the curtains and sees trouble on the horizon.

Read an Excerpt
The thin spring sunshine had little warmth and the pale blue sky looked cold, but together they turned the row of old gabled houses into a charming picture. They faced a narrow canal, tree-lined, the water dark, the arched bridge at its end leading to a street busy with traffic.
The girl walking along the narrow pavement paused to look about her and then, studying the street plan she was carrying, hitched the small package she held under one arm and crossed the narrow street to stand under the budding trees and study the houses opposite.
They were impressive, two and three storeys high with small windows in their various gables, heavy front doors with fanlights above them and with a double flight of steps leading to the door. Some of them had numbers on their walls; one or two had a coat-of-arms carved in stone above the fanlight.
Satisfied, she crossed the street again and mounted the steps of a tall house with high wide windows on each side of its door and an impressive gable, and thumped at the heavy knocker.
The man who opened the door was old, very thin and very upright with a fringe of white hair and pale blue eyes. He was dressed neatly in a black alpaca jacket and striped trousers and he addressed her in civil tones but, unfortunately, in Dutch.
She held out the packet she had been carrying. 'I'm sorry, I don't understand Dutch. This is for Mr van Houben, from Corinna.'
The elderly face slowly wrinkled into a smile. 'I will see that he receives it, miss. Do you wish to give your name?'
'Nono, thank you. Corinna asked me to deliver it here since I was coming to Amsterdam.' She smiled nicely. 'How very well you speak English.'
He gave a grave inclination of the head. 'Thank you, miss.'
'Well, goodbye.' She smiled again and went down the steps. She ran down on to the bottom one as a dark blue Bentley drew up. She turned her head to look at it, took a step which wasn't there, and fell in an untidy heap on to the pavement.
She wasn't hurt, she assured herself, and then said so to the enormous man crouching beside her. 'So silly of me,' she added politely.
He took no notice of that. 'Arms and legs all right?' he asked, and it seemed perfectly natural that his English should be as good as her own. 'You have a graze on your armany pains anywhere?'
When she said no, he heaved her gently to her feet, dusted her down and urged her back up the steps.
'I've just been there,' she told him. 'There's no need to bother anyoneI'm quite all right !'
He had bright blue eyes in a handsome face dominated by a powerful nose. He studied her now, standing on the step by the door. 'You need a wash and your hair could do with a comb.' His voice was impersonal but kind.
The colour came into her face, made pale by the shock of falling. A pretty girl, she reflected bitterly, could get away with that, but she couldn't, she hadn't the looksa small tip-tilted nose, a wide, generous mouth and a great deal of light brown hair didn't amount to much, although her eyes were beautiful; grey, thickly fringed. She held her tongue and allowed herself to be ushered back up the steps and into the house.
The hall was impressive and so typical of the Dutch Interior paintings she had been at pains to study at the Rijksmuseum that for a moment she wondered if this house was a museum too. Apparently not. She listened without understanding while there was an exchange of Dutch over her head and the elderly man went away, to return in a moment with a middle-aged woman with a formidable bosom and a kind face who clucked over her in a kindly fashion and led her away to the back of the hall and into a cloakroom secreted behind the dark panelling, the very antithesis of the hall: comfortno, luxury with its elegant fittings, thickly carpeted floor and mirrored walls and a shelf full of just about everything needed to improve one's appearance. The girl washed her face and hands and the quite nasty graze on her arm and, since there was no help for it, took the pins out of her hair and combed it with one of the ivory combs on the shelf, and pinned it neatly again. A little lipstick and powder would have been nice, but she didn't like to use any of these, arranged so beguilingly on the shelf.
She looked awful, she decided, and went back into the hall, to the stout woman who led her into a room on the other side of the splendid staircase.
There was another unintelligible exchange of Dutch before she was asked to sit down.
'I'll take a look at that graze,' said her host, and, having done so, went and rummaged in a black bag on the enormous desk under the window, to return with gauze and strapping and a tube of something.
'A soothing ointment,' he explained, and added, 'Keep it covered for a couple of days.' When he had finished he asked, 'You know Corinna?! Fram tells me that the parcel you were kind enough to bring is from her.'
The graze felt much better but she was aware of several sore spots on other parts of her person. 'Yes, I know her.'
'You are a nurse too?'
'I'm not trained yet. Corinna has almost finished, but we've been working on the same ward.'
'Will you tell her that I'm delighted to have the book?' He had gone to sit behind his desk. 'I had better introduce myselfMarius van Houben.'
She said gravely, 'How do you do? I'm Caroline Frisby. Thank you for your kindness and you saw to my graze quite expertly; lots of people have no idea what to do even for the simplest cut.'
'One does one's best,' murmured her host. 'May I offer you a cup of coffee?'
She got to her feet. 'No, thank you, I must get back: there's a tour of the city this afternoon and I should like to go on it.'
He went to open the door and Fram was waiting in the hall. She shook hands, thanked the butler for opening the door, and went carefully down the steps and walked briskly away, very aware of the tender spots on her small, too thin person.
It was quite a long way back to the hotel, but she had plenty of time. Aunt Meg had intended to do some shopping and had arranged to meet her at noon, when the hotel would provide them with coffee and sandwiches. It was a small hotel squashed into a narrow street near the Amstel River, very clean, the bedrooms small but the beds comfortable, serving a breakfast of rolls and cheese and jam and coffee each morning, coffee and sandwiches again if needed at midday and a substantial meal at night to its guests, who were for the most part quiet middle-aged couples with not much money to spend, content to roam the streets of the city, explore the museums and churches and gaze into shop windows. Caroline had come with her aunt because that lady hadn't liked the idea of going alone although she was determined to explore Amsterdam, a city she had always wished to visit. Caroline, with two weeks' holiday due, had willingly agreed to go with her; Aunt Meg had given her a home when her parents had died within a few weeks of each other of a particularly virulent flu. Not only had she done that, she had made her welcome, treated her as a daughter, strained her resources to have her educated and, when Caroline had decided that she would like to be a nurse, had encouraged her to leave the small house at Basing, a small village to the east of Basingstoke, and enrol at one of the London teaching hospitals. She had been there almost eighteen months now, and although she still missed the quiet life of the village it wasn't too far for her to go back there twice a month.
Her aunt was waiting for her, a comfortable matronly figure, sensibly clad in various shades of brown.
'Well?' she wanted to know. 'Did you find the house?'
'Yes, Aunt. It was one of those patrician town houses beside one of the small canals branching off from the Herengracht.'
'Who answered the door?'
'I suppose he was a butler. He was very polite and he spoke English.' She paused. 'I fell down the steps as I left. The cousin of Corinna's who was to have the package picked me up and put something on a graze '
'Did you like him?' Aunt Meg never beat about the bush.
'Well, he seemed very nicekind, you know, and lovely manners. I felt a fool.'
'One always does. Never mind, dear, you're not likely to meet him again. Let us go and eat our sandwiches; I'm looking forward to this tour.'
The coach, with its guide, took them around the city: the Oude Kerk, the Nieuwe Kerk, the Koninklijk Paleis, a bewildering succession of museums, Anne Frankhuis and, finally, the Rijksmuseum. Caroline, a sensible girl, aware that she might never get the chance to see Amsterdam again, listened and looked and stored away a multitude of odd sights and sounds to think about later, and in between whiles she thought about Corinna's cousin. He had looked like a man of leisure and he lived in a splendid house; probably he did nothing muchsat on a few committees perhaps, lent his name to boards of directors. She didn't know Corinna well enough to ask. It was only by chance that Corinna had got to hear that she was going to Amsterdam and had asked her to take the package and deliver it. 'It's only books,' she had said, 'but they cost the earth to post and they might get lost.'
There was a trip to Alkmaar on the following day but her Aunt Meg hadn't had her fill of Amsterdam yet. She spent the day wandering up and down the narrow lanes and streets and Caroline, nothing loath, went with her. They got lost several times but that, as her aunt pointed out, was half the fun. It was a pity that their wanderings took them nowhere near the Herengracht; Caroline, keeping her eyes open for a dark blue Bentley, saw no sign of it.
It was a good thing, she told herself firmly, that they would be going back home on the following day.
Their return home was made on a drab and chilly day, a remnant of winter. From the coach windows Holland looked flat and dull and very wet, but England looked dull too, even if not as flat, as they sped Londonwards from the ferry. Caroline had two more days' holiday before she had to return to hospital, so once they reached Victoria and wished their fellow passengers goodbye she and Aunt Meg were able to take themselves off to catch the next train to Basingstoke and from there get a taxi for the two miles to Basing.
Aunt Meg had shopped prudently in Amsterdam, with forethought, and while Caroline lit the fire in the sitting-room and carried their cases upstairs to the two small bedrooms her aunt opened a Dutch can of soup, warmed rolls in the oven and made a pot of tea.
Tea made, they ate at the kitchen table since it was already evening and the journey had been tiring. 'Not that the coach wasn't comfortable,' observed Aunt Meg, 'and everyone in it very pleasant, but it's not the same as going on your own, is it?' She smiled across the table at Caroline. 'We could have done with that Bentley car you were telling me aboutnow that's the way to travel.'
Caroline, spooning the thick Dutch soup, agreed. The memory of Marius van Houben was still vivid; it was also a waste of time. 'We'll unpack in the morning,' she told her aunt. 'There'll be time to get the washing and ironing done before I go back.'
She was up early to make tea, load the washing machine and then go into the garden to take a look around her. Another week or so and it would be April; her aunt's flower-beds were bursting with green shoots and the rhubarb was coming along nicely under its bucket. It was a bit early to go across the street and collect Theobald, Aunt Meg's cat who had been boarded out while they were abroad, so she contented herself with poking around the seedlings in the tiny greenhouse before going back indoors and setting the table for their breakfast.
The meal over, she filled the washing-line at the end of the garden and went across to Mrs Parkin's for Theobald. The sun had come out now, and the village, so peaceful and quiet despite its nearness to Basingstoke, looked delightful. She paused to admire the small houses and cottages around her before thumping on Mrs Parkin's door knocker.
Theobald, an elderly tabby with a torn ear and handsome whiskers, was pleased to see her. 'Good as gold,' avowed Mrs Parkin. 'Got 'is wits about 'im, 'e 'as. 'As you 'ad a nice time in foreign parts?'
'Lovely, thank you, Mrs Parkin. Aunt Meg will be over to see you presently and she will tell you all about it.'
Caroline bore the cat back to his own home, pegged out the rest of the washing and, with her aunt having a chat over the coffee-cups with Mrs Parkin, took herself off to the village stores. There were several customers there, all of whom she knew, and all of whom wanted to know if the holiday had been a success.

I know it's normally an ugly word amongst skating fans, but does anyone else enjoy watching football? (American, not football/soccer)
I know it's normally an ugly word amongst skating fans, but does anyone else enjoy watching football? (American, not football/soccer)
I'm annoyed that The Amazing Race will likely be delayed regularly be the change in the broadcast schedule of Sunday afternoon football. It'll likely be delay by an hour or more.
I'm not a fan of Amazing Race, and I love football....
Many of us may be captive football watchers, who have significant others who watch football That would be me. My younger son is a huge fan of the Patriots and his fantasy football game, and his dad is a moderate football fan, especially of the NY Giants.
Thank goodness, none of them are as big fans as my nephew and his wife are of baseball. The whole house is decorated in Boston Red Sox memorabilia, autographed baseballs & so forth.
My favorite team sport is probably hockey. I can stand to watch football though.
I am not a football person. Never will be. But I'm glad that any of you who are fans are coming up on your season. Enjoy!
I wish I were a fan. How nice to have a sport that's on TV all the time. You football fans are never hungry the way we all are for skating coverage.
no, you can never get enough of your sport... and unless you pay for an extra sports package, you don't always get to see your team on TV.

Grilled Chicken and Ratatouille
Hallelujah, the weekend is in sight, and you need a no-brainer dinner tonight. Quick Main Thursdays has you covered.
Photograph by Kana Okada
The magic of this dish lies in its simplicity. Nothing more than olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper, plus whatever looks good at the farmers' market (or in the crisper drawer) and voila! You've got yourself a delicious accompaniment to a nicely charred piece of chicken. –Ashton Strait

Saturday is World Refugee Day, an annual event created by the United Nations to draw attention to the plight of refugees and internally displaced people around the globe. This year's theme was "Real People, Real Needs."
According to the UN, there are 42 million uprooted people around the world. Some10.5 million people were refugees in 2008 while another 14 million were internally displaced-- those who were forced to move away from their homes, but remained within the borders of their country.
Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq account for about 45 percent of the world's refugee population.
The top host nation is Pakistan (1.8 million). Afghans have sought refuge in the neighboring country for decades and this year, Pakistan faced a new displaced people crisis as more than 100,000 Pakistanis sought safety from their government's war against the Taliban.

With three games remaining in the wild, wild District 3-4A boys race only one thing is certain - Eagles can soar.
The 11th-ranked Canyon Eagles (23-4 overall) can breath a little easier after their Saturday victory over Borger improved their 3-4A record to 10-1 and clinched a playoff berth.
In fact, Canyon coach Tim Webb and his Eagles can secure the 3-4A crown tonight by winning at fourth-place Hereford (6-5) and completing a district sweep.
But while the Eagles soar these days, there's a messy situation just beneath Canyon.
n Palo Duro and Randall each own a piece of second place with 7-4 records.
n Hereford and Pampa sit a game back in fourth place at 6-5. Pampa is riding high off Friday's 70-65 win over Randall, a game in which it was 13-of-19 from 3-point range.
n Sixth-place Dumas, a 61-58 upset winner over Hereford Friday, still has a breath of playoff air at 5-6.
"In this district, this year, any team can beat you on any night. I'm not just saying that," said Randall High coach Leslie Broadhurst.
Many playoff scenarios exist between Randall, Palo Duro, Hereford, Pampa and Dumas.
However, the winner of tonight's Palo Duro-Randall game at 7:30 at Randall will be able to claim sole possession of second place with just two games remaining. Palo Duro defeated Randall 76-74 on Jan. 11, using a game-high 20 points from guard Steve Chavez.
"This is a just a big game," Broadhurst said. "We have to play it like a playoff game, and I'm sure Palo Duro is thinking the same thing."
Randall is led by junior post Terry Nunley, who averages 15.8 points and 8.5 rebounds per game.
"Palo Duro is real athletic," Broadhurst said. "We have to do a better job of taking care of the ball against their press than we did the first time."
In the Palo Duro-Randall girls game at 6 p.m., a playoff berth doesn't ride on the outcome since both teams have already punched their tickets to post-season action.
However, the PD-Randall girls winner earns the No. 2 seed out of 3-4A and will meet in bi-district the loser of tonight's District 4-4A Levelland-Estacado game.
The loser of the PD-Randall girls game will represent 3-4A as the No. 3 seed and open the playoffs against the Levelland-Estacado winner.
Here's a closer look at tonight's key Amarillo-metro high school basketball games.
Class 5A
n Amarillo High (27-4, 7-0) at Lubbock Coronado (17-7, 5-2), 6 p.m.: The sixth-ranked Lady Sandies already clinched the District 3-5A title and look to extend their two-year district winning streak to 17 games in this regular-season finale. Coronado can clinch 3-5A's No. 2 seed with a win.
Class 4A
n Canyon (26-1, 13-0) at Hereford (17-13, 8-5), 6 p.m. No. 2-ranked Lady Eagles look to complete District 3-4A unbeaten and stretch district winning streak to 35 games dating back to Jan. 14, 2000.
n Palo Duro (23-9, 10-3) at Randall (22-7, 10-3), 6 p.m.: Both teams in playoffs. Winner gets District 3-4A's No. 2 seed, loser settles for No. 3 seed. PD won the first encounter 51-38 on Jan. 11.
Class 3A
n River Road (19-10, 7-2) at Perryton (27-2, 9-0), 6 p.m.: Top two teams in 1-3A square off for playoff tune-up. No. 2-ranked Perryton has already clinched district title. River Road has secured the No. 2 seed.
Class 5A
n Amarillo High (22-7, 5-1) at Lubbock Coronado (17-11, 2-3), 7:45 p.m.: Sandies looked strong clinching a playoff berth last time out against Tascosa. However, this game presents a huge hurdle to leap and the reward could be a district title in their future.
n Lubbock High (6-18, 0-5) at Tascosa (12-13, 2-4), 7:45 p.m.: Pretty much a must win if Rebels are to earn 3-5A's remaining playoff spot.
Class 4A
n Palo Duro (20-10, 7-4) at Randall (16-11, 7-4), 7:45 p.m.: Playoff-like game since winner takes over sole possession of second place. PD won the first district meeting 76-74 on Jan. 11.
n Canyon (23-4, 10-1) at Hereford (12-16, 6-5), 7:45 p.m.: The Eagles can clinch the 3-4A title with a win. Hereford fighting for its playoff life.
