That's disappointing, I've always wanted to play this game. My laptop isn't good enough and I don't have a 360 or plan on getting a PS3
With The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion currently on sale for the Xbox 360 and any minute now the PS3, Wii owners hoping for Oblivion to make its way to the console will sadly be disappointed.
Bethesda's VP of Marketing Peter Hines had this to say on the rumours, "It's something we'd like to do, but unfortunately it's not a very good fit with Oblivion. Oblivion is a very demanding game hardware-wise and in terms of graphics processing and raw horsepower. It's not something the Wii was designed to do. They decided not to make the focus on raw horsepower but on interface and so forth. It's a great console and many of us at Bethesda have one but I know that bringing Oblivion over is not possible - we'd have to do a whole new game."

Not sure why they cant just port across a more cleaned up version of the PSP game though?

That's disappointing, I've always wanted to play this game. My laptop isn't good enough and I don't have a 360 or plan on getting a PS3
No big loss for me...It's been years since I last touched Marrowind. I think running through it again would offer me a similar but less graphically intense experience as Oblivion. Besides, if you wait a few years for Vista to become standard the game will be selling for a true bargain price considering what it has to offer. Just be patient.
I've never heard a lot about the game so it doesn't matter to me. However it does sadden me to see how they ranked the Wii's capablities. I mean its the truth but still it sucks for all the Oblivion fans. I honestly think that while the Wii is a great system it could have even been BETTER had they made it just a little bit more powerful graphically and space wise.
Morrowwind was a great game.
Sad that Oblivion isn't going to be ported to the Wii. I'm confused though - if the Wii isn't powerful enough, then what sort of Oblivion is going to be on the PSP - a pile of cats turd?
If the PSP version is good, it just may get me to blow the dust off it.
lol, but they're making a new game for the PSP, so i dont see why they cant do the same for the Wii.Originally Posted by stewart01

This is kind of a "no duh" article. Even the PSP version you're speaking of is a dumbed down version.
No big loss. I've got it on the 360 and, in my honest, personal opinion, the game is awful. I've played it for about 10 hours and have not touched it in months. The graphics are nice but pop-up is terrible. I remember one bit where you are going up a mountain on horseback, the AI was so dumb my party kept getting stuck behind rocks. I gave up at the part where you have loads of little critters attacking at one point just because the combat is so frustrating. All you do is repeatedly pull the R trigger. Maybe I just don't 'get it' but the game just felt, well, bad to me.

Beautyful Mind, A
A beautiful Mind, winner of 4 oscars, tells the true story of the life of the brilliant mathematician John Nash from his youth in Princeton where he gets confronted with his nerdy appearance and the problem of not having published any of his research to the time he gets the Nobel price for Economy.
It's hard to give a decent review of the movie without giving away any spoilers (those that have seen it already know what I'm talking about) but I'll try to do my best.
From the beginning you see that Nash (Russell Crowe) has problem interacting with other people. The only student he seems to really get along with is his roommate Charles Herman (Paul Bettany). While John is getting into trouble because he hasn't published any research yet, and has the risk of loosing his college grant, Herman helps him to loosen up and finally getting his degree as Doctor in Maths and becoming a professor at M.I.T.
As a professor, he sometimes gets jobs for the Pentagon to do some decoding of enemy messages and soon after he's contacted by an agent of the contra-spionage, William Parsher who is played by Ed Harris, who asks him to regularly check magazines for hidden messages from Russion spies who are secretly working on a portable atom bomb. Nash has hardly any social contacts with anyone but after a while an ex-student of his, Alicia Lopez (Jennifer Connely), gets in the picture. They fall in love and after a while they get married.
Due to the fact that his work for Parcher is top secret, he isn't allowed to tell Alicia anything but what they don't know is that he is suffering of a severe case of schizofreny which coïncides with paranoia and that almost costs him everything he ever loved.
Sound and Vision:
A beautiful mind runs on dialogues and feeling rather than special effects. Therefor it's no problem that DTS is not an option. Dolby Digital 5.1 is more than enough for the atmosphere-creating details that give this movie an extra egde.
The anamorphic widescreen is good although nothing special. Overall, the timbre is a bit dark and has some grainess but is sharp and with good contrast.
There's 2 version available for DVD: a normal 1-disc version and the "Two Disc Award Edition".
The first disc is in both cases the same with next to the movie 28 minutes of deleted scenes that are accompanied by very good commentary by Ron Howard who clearly states why a certain scene was not put in the movie, and 2 commentary track by both Ron Howard himself and script writer Akiva Goldman. All of this is luckily subtitled.
The second disc has a real bunch of extras like documentaries, interviews (including some with the real John Nash), a 2 minute trailer and a commercial that should make you buy the soundtrack.
A beautiful Mind is a great movie and it's clear why it got 4 academy awards. Whether you should buy the normal or 2-disc version is a choice that you should make for yourself; do you want to see the movie or do you want to know everything there is to know about it ? And are you prepared to pay extra for a second disc that has a bunch of interviews and documentaries ?

LAWRENCE — With a backdrop of buzzing bees, apple trees and treats baking in the shop at Terhune Orchards, Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno today signed five pieces of legislation supporting the Farm to School program.
Farm to School ensures that participating public schools, including five in Mercer County, supply each student with at least two fresh fruits and vegetables every day and teaches students how and where the food was grown, what the health benefits are, and how to prepare healthy meals.
"The health, education, and future of our children is something we all agree on," said Guadagno, who was serving as acting governor while Gov. Chris Christie was out of state. The bills were passed with bipartisan support.
"These bills are taking down these barriers so kids can have fresh fruit and vegetables," NJ Department of Agriculture Secretary Douglas Fisher said. Such barriers include the price and availability of fresh produce, especially in more urban areas and also lack of knowledge about what fruits and vegetables grow when, and what is the most delicious way to prepare them.
One of the bills centered around keeping the program well publicized on the N.J. Department of Agriculture's website, where farmers and schools can be linked. The other four bills focused on support and execution for Farm to School, including fundraising, tax returns for those who help support the program, and an award system to highlight the benefits.
One of these benefits will probably be seen on the test scores of schools participating. Guadagno said that students who eat a healthy, balanced diet tend to do much better in school. Additionally, the educational portion of Farm to School spreads across the curriculum, making connections to math, science, and even language arts.
Speaking to a mixed crowd of New Jersey political leaders, Department of Agriculture representatives, educators, locals, and farmers, Guadagno noted another possible benefit from the program. "Who knows? We could be generating the next generation of farmers," she said. She said the average age of a farmer is 59 in New Jersey. With over 10,000 farms, making agriculture the state's third largest industry, there will be opportunity for younger farmers, Guadagno said.
"It is truly a great day for our children," she said.

Kewadin gives back this Holiday season
SAULT STE. MARIE, MICH – Employees at Kewadin Casinos were busy giving back this past holiday season. From food banks, to toys drives, each casino had a special program to help others.
Customers and employees collected a total of 6,360 lbs of non perishable items were collected and distributed from Kewadin Manistique. St. Vincent DePaul received 3,400 lbs and 2,960 lbs to Good Neighbors Food Bank. In Christmas, 10,400 lbs of non perishable items were collected and delivered to the St. Vincent DePaul in Munising. In addition, employees in Christmas organized a 50/50 raffle raising $1,300 that allowed them to adopt a local family and give them an unforgettable Christmas.
The Hope Chest Food Pantry in St. Ignace received 2,100 lbs of canned goods to fill their shelves during the holiday season and to help keep it full throughout the year.
"It's great to see employees and customers alike participating in our giving programs," said Tony Goetz, Kewadin Casinos COO. "They have big hearts and it's nice to see our programs making a difference."
Various departments at Kewadin Sault held fundraisers throughout the year and used that money towards adopting families for the holidays. The Convention Sales & Hotel staff rose just over $750 and was able to buy Christmas gifts for six children. Kewadin's accounting staff raised money from dress down events and donations for their giving program. The department was able to buy food baskets for 3 local families for Thanksgiving and also adopted 3 families – including 5 children – for Christmas. In addition, the Slot Department employees pitched in and donated pet food to the Chippewa County Animal Shelter.
In Hessel, employees and customers donated new toys from Nov. 20 – Dec. 9. Customers were given $10 in Kewadin Credits as a token of appreciation for the donation. The toys were delivered to the Hessel tribal Christmas party.

A phone call to the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station from a concerned resident Saturday morning led to the arrest of three people, resulted in the recovery of drugs and stolen property, and brought closure to two recent car theft victims.
Deputies responded to the 28800 block of Bougainvillea Way, Canyon Country, to a resident's report of suspicious persons in a vehicle who were possibly doing drugs.
At approximately the same time, deputies were responding to a second nearby call in the 15600 block of Rosehaven Lane, Canyon Country, to a resident's report that his car had been stolen within the last three hours.
Deputies had also responded to a stolen vehicle call just blocks away two days prior in the 29000 block of Lotusgarden Drive, Canyon Country.
When deputies arrived in the area they detained one individual as he started to drive away, while two others walked towards a nearby house. The second deputy contacted the car theft victim.
After talking to the alert Neighborhood Watch representatives in the area, deputies conducted a thorough preliminary investigation which led them to the recovery of a Honda Prelude in the 25600 block of Rosehaven Lane which was stolen from Lotusgarden Drive on June 3, 2010. The interior of the vehicle had been stripped.
Further investigation led the deputies to a house in the 15600 block of Poppyseed Lane where they discovered auto parts believed to be stolen from the Honda Prelude.
Detectives from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station's immediately responded and secured a search warrant for the location. During the service of the search warrant deputies recovered several auto parts, several items belonging to the second car theft victim, methamphetamine, Xanax, hypodermic syringes, car stereo equipment, numerous tools and a police baton.
Deputies also recovered the second stolen vehicle, a white Honda Civic, early Sunday morning in Los Angeles.
When the investigation was complete three suspects, who were apparently victimizing their own neighborhood, were booked at the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station on several felony charges.
Ralph Leslie, 39, of Canyon Country, faces potential felony charges of receiving stolen property and possession of a controlled substance. He faces potential misdemeanor charges of possession of burglary tools, and possession of hypodermic needles.
Leslie was also on probation for possession of drug paraphernalia and had just been released from jail on May 29, 2010. He had two active warrants for his arrest and is being held without bail pending future court proceedings.
Adrienne Ramirez, 33, of Canyon Country, faces a potential felony charge of possession of a controlled substance and a misdemeanor charge of possession of hypodermic needles. She was also on parole for receiving stolen property and is being held in lieu $10,000 bail pending future court proceedings. She had been released from jail on April 13, 2010.
Christian Orozco, 21, of Palmdale, faces potential felony charges of taking a vehicle without the owner's consent and receiving known stolen property. He was also on felony parole for burglary and is being held in lieu of $25,000 bail. He had just been released from jail on May 29, 2010.

J6 manual-3 on NE site (doesn't have 6 page "Nine Eagles J6 Transmitter Appendix 1" at end
My J6 is like this one, doesn't say"Futaba Code Inside" and maybe different screws holding the stick modules in.
Same size switches in same locations, with same labels.
Where did you find this appendix? It is good info but I just took a look at the J6 that came with the SP180 I got from HK last week and as far as I can tell, there is only one model memory. Can choose heli or aircraft and no options to pick a different model memory or save, copy, etc. Curious that manual-2 has this appendix but the manual-3 you linked to and the one that came in my box doesn't.
I'm thinking this might apply only to the ones that say "Futaba code inside"? It would be nice to be able to use this TX with another NE heli or plane if I ever wanted to but don't think the unit I have is capable of doing so?
What would be really nice is if someone would make one of these micros that would bind with the nice Futaba TX I already have for my 450.

Downloaded several versions of the J6 manual in PDF format. The one with the "Nine Eagles J6 Transmitter Appendix 1" was very clean and easiest to read.
1/20/2012 is the date that I saved J6 Manual-2 with the appendix.
1/26/2012 is the date that I saved J6 Manual-3 from Nine Eagles site.
I don't know where I downloaded the J6 Manual-2 with the appendix and thought it might be something that doesn't exist yet. The clarity of the PDF is outstanding, perhaps because it is greyscale with red highlighting.
Tried "Model parameter copy setup" and get an "A" for "model number which has been copied" and a "5" for "model NO which needs to be
copied" whatever that means. The J6 came with the SP100D-280A.
EDIT: First set Communication Protocol R-0 for old 4 Channel and less or R-1 for new protocol
EDIT: CP = Model Copy function.
EDIT: The "A" is likely an "R" for receiving a new model from another transmitter.
EDIT: The "5" is likely an "S" for sending model data to another transmitter.
EDIT: Pressing C button shows "--------" meaning it is (R)eceiving or (S)ending data.
I got brave and went in to the J6 and changed some parameters and worked my way through the menu's without causing a factory default reset. This is all new to me and was hoping someone knew if this thing has 10 model memories or not.
Well, I messed with this some more and it's not working for me. I can get to the screen with the blinking CP and going into it displays an "A" but that's it. Turning the dial doesn't change anything and if I do press C, it shows - - - - and again, it can't be changed.
At least I didn't wipe everything out.
Any info in that manual-2 that shows how to get to the idle up throttle curve menu?

Found it. Now I don't have to post it
The site - under SP100D-280A
J6 manual with Nine Eagles J6 Transmitter Appendix 1
Helipad also shows a version of the SP100D-280A with supports on the tail boom. First time I've seen that - may be old, may be new.
Nine Eagles Large 2.4ghz Transmitter
Item Id: NE-24TX
This transmitter will bind with all Nine Eagles 2.4Ghz helicopters. Every transmitter has been tested and bound to a Nine Eagles 2.4ghz helicopter prior to shipping. Rick does it again?
thanks for the manual.
Whats this:
Select for 10 model parameters.
Press button A+ B for one second to enter the menu to select, the character
mode and single character in parameter region blink , press button C to enter,
turn the dial plate to choose the model No, from 0-9, Press button C to confirm,
Press button B to exit, the choosing for Model No is completed!

Especially since our own Nebraska alumnus JB99 is pretty high on the guy, and since ATV asked for more info on the man, let's meet the young offensive tackle who was just claimed off waivers from the Baltimore Ravens by the Eagles…
D.J. Jones, age 23, OT, Nebraska, 6-5, 320, undrafted free agent from the class of 2011…was signed by the Miami Dolphins before the 2011 season. After the Dolphins waived him from their practice squad on Oct. 17, the Ravens signed him to theirs two days later. He was promoted to the 53-man roster in Week 17, but he didn't play in the season-ending victory in Cincinnati.
After claiming Jones from the Miami Dolphins (in his Phins uniform above), the Ravens waived the undrafted rookie offensive tackle from Nebraska before their win over the Houston Texans in the AFC divisional round on January 14, 2011…
It's been a whirlwind season for Jones, who has gone from the Miami Dolphins' practice squad to the active roster of the Baltimore Ravens to getting claimed off waivers by the Eagles.
Jones was released from both Miami and Baltimore because of personnel moves, and both teams had planned to pick him up again. He'd even had a long talk with his position coach in Baltimore about his future before he was nabbed during the playoffs by the Eagles.
It was a shock because no one with the organization had talked to him beforehand and they haven't since.
"Someone wrote me on Twitter and said, 'Welcome to Philly.' "
Jones admitted he was a little bitter about leaving Baltimore because he really liked the organization and the players on the team. He enjoyed Miami, but he said it was more like being on vacation. "It was just so crazy down there, especially me being a Nebraska guy," he said. "We don't have any beaches in Omaha."
The good thing, Jones said, is that because he was on the active roster with the Ravens, he'll keep that jump in salary now with the Eagles.
Jones said he realizes that the NFL is a business, so it doesn't do any good to get upset about moving from team to team. He said he's in the NFL, other teams want him and he can look in the mirror every day and know that he's given his best at every stop. "That's all that matters to me," he said. "I'm up for new adventures."
Jones is quite the gospel singer, by the way. At one point in his Husker days he had thought of auditioning for American Idol. As it turned out, he did get a singing gig at the recent Super Bowl festivities in Indianapolis.
Jones sang with former and current NFL players in the Super Bowl Gospel Celebration last Friday night at Butler University and last Saturday night at the Taste of NFL party, which previewed the foods that will be served next year at the Super Bowl in New Orleans.
Jones hasn't sung in public since his days in the a cappella choir at Omaha Central, which he joined on a dare, but said he jumped at the chance to mix with recording artists such as CeCe Winans, Donnie McClurkin and American Idol winner Fantasia. If former Ravens teammate Ray Lewis could do it, Jones figured that he could too, especially since he was always singing in choirs as a youngster.
"I knew I could still sing," Jones said. "I always sing in the shower."
Jones said he's a little hoarse from all of the fun times he's been having recently with friends in Omaha. He's home working out until he reports for spring drills with the Eagles in April.
Here are the NFL Draft Scout numbers on Jones:

Okay, he's a project… But Andy Reid has had his eye on this guy for a while… and we all know Reid cannot resist a gem in the rough on the OL side of the ball…
Jones was snubbed by the NFL Scouting Combine last year. He is not alone. Here's a list of current Combine snubs as compiled by PE.com's hot new writer Fran Duffy, who deserves a big ole country "Salute!" for giving us access to this report:
Nicolas Jean-Baptiste, DT, Baylor, 6-2, 335, who squats 600 lbs., is among the most notable and unexpected snubs of the 2012 NFL Scouting Combine… be sure to consider him as one of your undrafted free agent wild cards on your Mach 10 ballots this year…
NOTABLE COMBINE SNUBS (by Fran Duffy):
G.J. Kinne, Tulsa, 6-2, 215 – One of the more underrated players in this draft class, Kinne is a coach's son who grew up in a football culture and originally signed with the University of Texas out of high school. After transferring to Tulsa, Kinne became one of the most productive quarterbacks in school history. Kinne displays decent accuracy, sneaky athleticism, and shows a certain moxie in the pocket. He has a good arm, and the ball flies out of his hand when he's under pressure. I have seen some compare him to former Eagles quarterback Jeff Garcia, and I honestly think that's a very good comparison. He's not the biggest prospect, and he struggles making progressions from time to time, but he was a name that mildly surprised me as being left off of the Combine invite list.
Running Back:
Bobby Rainey, Western Kentucky, 5-7, 208 – Rainey has been one of the most productive ball carriers in all of college football over the past four seasons. The former Hilltopper, despite his small stature, has led the nation in carries each of the past two seasons, and finished 2011 as the second-leading rusher in terms of yards per game. Rainey is a tough player who gives all-out effort on every down as a runner and blocker. He's a sure-handed receiver in the pass game as well, and could have a future in the return game at the next level. Though he doesn't have elite speed or quickness, Rainey is a prospect who will dare you to bet against him, just so he can prove you wrong down the road.
Michael Smith, Utah State, 5-8, 207 – If you follow the NFL Draft, you may think that this is a typo and that I'm naming the wrong Utah State running back. If that's the case, you would be wrong. In watching film on running back Robert Turbin (of whom I'm also a big fan), I noticed that his backfield-mate, Smith, was also a solid prospect in his own right. Though he isn't the biggest back and isn't going to run away from anyone in the NFL, Smith does all the little things right that coaches love. He is a very good blocker in the run game as well as in pass protection, and a reliable receiver who doesn't put the ball on the ground. Smith is also a productive contributor on special teams, which is huge for a third or fourth-string running back. While he may not get drafted, I'm of the belief that Smith will sign with a team and stick with a squad after training camp in August.
Wide Receiver:
Lance Lewis, East Carolina, 6-0, 209 – A versatile receiver who produced from a number of different spots in the Pirate offense, Davis is a high-upside player who flashed ability at the Shrine Game. He's a physical prospect who exhibits good quickness off the line and excellent ball skills when the ball is in the air. He doesn't have elite speed or dynamic playmaking ability, but Lewis is the type of complete receiver teams covet in that he plays fast, loves to block, and fights for the football.
Tight End:
Kevin Koger, Michigan, 6-3, 262 – Koger was one of the biggest shocks to not make the cut, at least in my mind. The former Michigan Wolverine is one of the more athletic tight ends in the class, runs good routes, has soft hands, and exhibits good ball skills as a receiver. He needs to be coached up a bit as a blocker in terms of technique, but the effort is there and to see him not get an invite was surprising, especially considering he has only played one year in a pro style system (after playing in Rich Rodriguez's spread look for his first three seasons), I would think teams would want every chance to get an extra look at him. When it's all said and done, I think Koger can be a Jermichael Finley-esque weapon at the next level, and I would say he's a lock to hear his name called on draft weekend.
Offensive Line:
Levy Adcock, Oklahoma State, 6-6, 330 – Adcock may be one of the biggest head-scratchers of them all when it comes to 2012 Combine snubs. Widely considered in media circles as one of the top ten offensive linemen in the draft class, Adcock not only didn't get an invite to Indianapolis, but didn't play in the Senior Bowl either after declaring he had a knee injury. He's got good size, plays with a nastiness and shows decent athleticism as well with his ability to bend. While he doesn't have the quickest feet and may have to move inside to guard, his omission from the Combine roster was a shock to many in the draft community. Regardless, it's widely suspected that Adcock will still be drafted, and has the ability to develop into a starter down the road.
Brandon Brooks, Miami (Ohio), 6-4, 353 lbs – One of the apparent gems from the Shrine Game in January, Brooks was one of the most talked about linemen during the week of practice in St. Petersburg. A physical marvel who shows good athleticism for a man his size, Brooks followed up his week in practice with a strong showing in the game, plowing consistent holes in the run game, including on the game-winning touchdown run. An experienced four-year starter, I don't think this snub will affect Brooks' draft status too much, as he should still be one of the top interior linemen drafted as a solid mid-round selection.
Derek Dennis, Temple, 6-3, 315 – Another linemen who showed well down in St. Petersburg was Dennis, who played his college ball just a few miles up Broad Street from Lincoln Financial Field at Temple University. Dennis is a good athlete for the position, with the ability to get out to the second level while displaying solid lateral quickness and range as a pulling guard. While some wanted to see him play with better pad level throughout the week, he improved as practices went on and showed why he is considered to be one of the more intriguing linemen in the draft class. Look for Dennis to rebound from the snub and come back with a strong performance at his Pro Day a few weeks after the Combine.
Defensive End:
Adrian Hamilton, Prairie View A&M, 6-2, 245 – Hamilton has been extremely productive over the past couple of seasons, setting the record for most sacks in SWAC history after transferring from Texas Tech. A solid pass rusher with an explosive first step, variety of pass rush moves, and good closing speed, the tools he brings to the table are tough to match when it comes down to pure raw ability. While he doesn't have a great motor, some hard coaching at the next level may change that (especially from a coach like Jim Washburn.) Of all the "small-school" prospects that failed to receive an invite, Hamilton was by far the biggest surprise, as most thought he would be a shoe-in to work out in Indianapolis in front of the NFL masses.
Kentrell Lockett, Mississippi , 6-5, 243 – Lockett showed at the Shrine Game a few weeks ago that he absolutely has the tools to be worthy of a draft selection. The former Ole Miss star is a ferocious pass rusher that plays with good pad level, quickness, and lateral agility. He has a variety of pass rush moves, but excels most when he transitions from speed to power as a bull rusher. He's got good size and the frame to put on more weight at the next level. Lockett did tear an ACL in the fall of 2010, but rebounded from that and put his sixth year of eligibility to good use in 2011.
Defensive Tackle:
Nicolas Jean-Baptiste, Baylor, 6-2, 335 – The big nose tackle out of Baylor is another prospect who made some noise during the week of the Shrine Game, proving why he has as high an upside as any prospect in his class. He plays with a high motor, uses his hands well and exhibits good power at the point of attack. Jean-Baptiste is still raw, and plays a little out of control at times, but the ability is clearly there and I would have liked to see him work alongside his peers in Indianapolis.
Micanor Regis, Miami, 6-2, 309 – Along with Jean-Baptiste, Regis was a shining light at the Shrine Game earlier this year and showed everyone that he too is worthy of a draft pick. The former Miami Hurricane displayed solid short area quickness and an explosive first step in St. Petersburg, proving to be one of the more active linemen in the game. Regis set up shop time and time again in the opposing backfield, verifying his penetration skills that he displayed during his time at "The U." While he will never be mistaken for the strongest player at his position, Regis makes up for that with his hand usage and suddenness as a pass rusher. It would not shock me to see a team take a late-round flier on him late, but if not he will be a priority free agent signing in a deep defensive tackle group.
Sammy Brown, Houston, 6-1, 243 – One of the most underrated pass rushers in this draft class, Brown made a living getting after the quarterback during his time with the Cougars. A very productive senior year helped him garner an invitation to the Players All Star Classic, where he again showed his speed off the edge and variety of pass rush moves to get to the quarterback. He has a quick first step, solid closing burst, and the ability to flatten out on the edge that will make teams that run a 3-4 scheme very intrigued on film. It's a shame that Brown was not invited to Indianapolis, because I feel confident he would have been one of the standout performers in the speed and agility drills. Still, we all know the premium set on pass rushers, so it won't surprise me to see him get drafted in the later rounds in April.
Jerry Franklin, Arkansas, 6-1, 241 – While Brown would have thrived at the Combine, Franklin is the type of player that could have seen his stock fall in Indianapolis. Not to be mistaken for an elite athlete, Franklin depends on his instincts and nose for the football to succeed on the field. One of the more productive defenders in the country based on tackles, Franklin is an experienced player that knows the ins and outs of the game. While he may not ever be a starter at the next level due to his athletic limitations, he should be able to develop into a very good backup and special teams player once he latches onto an NFL squad.
Defensive Back:
Donnie Fletcher, Boston College , 6-0, 201 – The lone Senior Bowl participant who didn't net a Combine invite, Fletcher raised perhaps the most eyebrows when his Combine exclusion was revealed. An experienced player out of the ACC, Fletcher is considered by many to be one of the better zone defenders at his position, and a great fit in a zone-scheme at the next level. He doesn't have great speed, and looks a bit stiff in his back pedal, but he has good ball skills and instincts when breaking on the football. By no means do I think that this will keep him from hearing his name called, but the fact that he didn't receive an invite does make you think that maybe he has more questions surrounding his game than previously thought. Regardless, he will have a lot to prove when his Pro Day comes around after the Combine.
Aaron Henry, Wisconsin, 5-11, 208 – Henry showed at the Shrine Game that he is one of the better cover safeties in this draft class, displaying good feet, fluid hips, and excellent range. The former Badger didn't always have the production to show for it, but his raw athletic ability is undeniably there. In a safety class that doesn't have a lot of standout names, I was shocked to see Henry left out of the group set for Indianapolis.

Certain musical artists—Sinatra, Cole Porter, Charlie Parker—never lose their relevance or their resonance. Country music's timeless prince has always been Hank Williams, and this illuminating 200-page book, jammed with 300 photos, goes far in celebrating his extraordinary but tragically brief life.
Born in Mount Olive West, Ala., in 1923, Williams, driven by an ambitious mother and an even more ambitious first wife, was country's original crossover star. Debilitated by alcoholism, Williams died under still mysterious circumstances while being driven to a gig in Canton, Ohio, on Jan. 1, 1953. He was 29.
This is a mountain of material, much of it previously unpublished, including hand-scrawled lyrics of 30 unpublished original Williams songs. There are poignant letters to Williams from his publisher and producer Fred Rose that beg him to stop drinking, and the photos, many of them snapshots, are a revelation. The images are often murky, but that is the price of being able to find out so much more about this troubled trailblazer. (Da Capo Press, $35)

Our core belief is that all students benefit from being educated in a highly challenging and rigorous learning environment. We believe that all students deserve an equal chance and an equal playing field. However, out of our 84 schools in the Charleston County School District, eight schools are still rated "At-Risk" on the state report card. This has been and continues to be unacceptable. Therefore, we intend to change this reality once and for all.
A renaissance is a time of rebirth, when ideas undergo great changes and paradigms shift. The Renaissance Schools Project within CCSD targets four schools that are ready for a new beginning; a transformation of their culture, teaching, learning environment and student outcomes.
Burns, Sanders-Clyde and Memminger Elementary are currently "At-Risk." North Charleston Elementary has been "Below Average" for three years following three "At Risk" years. While there are great teachers at each school, the team dynamics and — most importantly — the culture of the school must change to improve achievement.
Across the district, our improvement record is strong.
In five years, we have reduced the number of schools rated "Below Average" or "Unsatisfactory" by the state from 53 to 21 percent. This transformation is the result of proven strategies: high-quality early-childhood programs; a laser-focus to build literacy skills; effective, committed and energetic teachers; visionary principals; and wrap-around supports that are needed to overcome the unique challenges facing our children and families.
We are encouraged by our progress, but it is not enough. Until the number of "Below Average" or "Unsatisfactory" schools is 0, this district, under my leadership, will not rest.
President Obama recently called for states to make "high-quality early education" available to all children. This is a proven method for dramatic and positive change that our national leaders have identified as a priority. I am making it an immediate priority for CCSD and a key component of the Renaissance Schools Project. Every child must enter kindergarten at the same starting point.
Our short-term goal is to ensure that at Memminger, Burns, Sanders-Clyde and North Charleston Elementary, we serve all students in pre-kindergarten programs. A second, longer term goal will be granting Renaissance Schools Project teachers the option of placing their own children at their schools. This will lift the burden and worry of our educators needing to shop around for child care options for their families. It also will enhance peer-to-peer learning in our 4-year-old child development program.
The Renaissance Schools Project is designed to address specific realities that the district can control — setting and maintaining high expectations for all students and ensuring a quality, effective educator in each classroom in these schools. One of the key elements of the Renaissance Schools Project is to invest in teacher quality. This means investing in the professional growth of teachers to help them effectively serve, educate and meet the needs of all student learners in these schools.
The major components of the Renaissance Schools Project are threefold and built on the foundation of a positive and progressive school climate. For these schools to succeed, the culture of the school must be one of "high expectations" for both children and adults. Children will need to be accelerated more than one year in order to get caught up to grade level.
Building on the foundation of school culture, we must first identify teachers who accept the challenges and believe they can overcome them. (In short, they must have a burning desire to teach there.) Second, teachers must have an extraordinary skill set and a proven record of excellence. Finally, each team member must spend the time necessary to build their own professional tool kit and learn to operate as part of a highly effective team. This is why, if selected, these teachers will be paid for 20 days of professional development during the 2013-14 school year. They will attend at least 10 full days of training prior to the next school year, and additional sessions throughout the year.
Education majors graduate from college with the certification and credentials to become employed as teachers, just as soldiers and sailors who make it through boot camp or basic training can be deployed with an Army brigade or assigned to a Navy ship. Most are effective in their role and are adequately prepared to carry out the typical duties they are asked to perform during military service. Some end up being outstanding performers.
However, when a situation becomes highly complex, fraught with risk or uniquely challenging, the military sends in an elite squad that has been specially selected and highly trained.
The Navy SEALs are one great example of a highly competent, elite team. They are proven performers who receive rigorous training that goes far beyond the preparation required of a typical sailor. As a result of rigorous selection, personal competence and intense training, they accomplish many missions that are far beyond the reach of regular soldiers.
Think of this and apply it to our educational mission. Where we have great challenges and complex situations, we need Renaissance Schools Project teams — elite, highly trained teachers who will achieve unprecedented outcomes.
Those who are part of these teams will do whatever it takes to achieve success for every child.
These "Navy SEALs" of our teaching force will be a major catalyst behind achieving Vision 2016, and redefining the Charleston County School District as the No. 1 public school system in America.
Dr. Nancy McGinley is superintendent of the Charleston County School District.

The Fourth Amendment and Privacy Implications of Interior Immigration Enforcement
Anil Kalhan
Drexel University Thomas R. Kline School of Law
UC Davis Law Review, Vol. 41, 2008
Fordham Law Legal Studies Research Paper No. 1088769
This Article proposes privacy as a descriptive and normative framework to analyze the constellation of recent initiatives to expand interior enforcement of federal immigration laws. By expanding the circumstances in which individuals are expected to demonstrate their lawful presence in the United States, these various initiatives seek to transform the significance of immigration and citizenship status in day-to-day life from something largely invisible and irrelevant to something visible and salient in a variety of settings. This transformation, however, carries underappreciated social costs. Building upon scholarship theorizing privacy as protecting a set of social or structural interests, and using the Supreme Court's decision in Katz v. United States as a conceptual starting point, the Article argues that recognizing and protecting immigration and citizenship status privacy in certain contexts serves valuable social purposes. While the Fourth Amendment itself may ultimately establish a weak constraint against interior enforcement, in other contexts courts and state and local governments have increasingly recognized and protected privacy interests in immigration and citizenship status in precisely these structural terms. Although these responses represent only a partial solution to the privacy-related harms that may arise from expanded interior enforcement, they contribute to a public conversation that may recognize more directly the social value of preserving zones in society in which status remains invisible, irrelevant, and private.

This happened a long time ago but the photo canvas thread got me thinking...
When Ds1 was born we were 22 and broke so we had his newborn portraits done at Walmart and ordered the cheapest package available. When the order came in, Lo was in the hospital with a virus, EBF so I couldn't leave. Mil asked if we needed anything from the store, so I asked her to pick up the portraits which were already paid for.
She showed up at the hospital with a huge packet full. It turns out, she had spent god-knows-how-much money and bought up all the extra proofs from the photo session... FOR HERSELF. She had them put in a big collage frame. They are still on her wall 9yrs later, and I have always felt mild irritation when I look at them. Especially since they are nicer pics than the ones I was able to afford for myself at the time.
Even though it's been 9 years, DWIL has opened my eyes and I am suddenly FURIOUS about this. There I was, a young FTM scared to death with a hospitalized newborn, so I guess it just wasn't on my radar at the time. Maybe it's crazy, but I am actually considering saying something to her. She would most likely apologize and offer them to me now, but I know she would cry and play the victim and it would be awkward.
So, DWIL, was she wrong to do that in the first place? (After all, her money= her business.) Should I let it go? What's the statute of limitations on something like this? (Seems kinda petty now that I've typed it all out)

To the Editor.—
Imes et al reported for the first time sleep and respiratory measurements before and after tracheotomy in a patient with sleep apnea hypersomnolence syndrome associated with retrognathia. The patient also had a posterior displacement of the tongue resulting in sleep obstruction, causing low Po2 levels with associated cardiac arrhythmias and daytime hypersomnolence. The concluding statement to the article was, "Effective treatment of the sleep apnea hypersomnolence syndrome associated with retrognathia is limited to tracheotomy."We are presently conducting a research study with patients requiring orthognathic surgery, one type which is retrognathic mandibles (notice in N Engl J Med 296:462, 1977). This type of procedure requires the surgical fracturing of the mandible, a realignment in a more anterior position, and postoperative fixation with the mouth being wired closed for a period of weeks. As the mandible is repositioned anteriorly, the tongue is also moved forward by the genioglossis

Fang et al (Archives 1982;39:1217) raised the important point that plasma cortisol concentrations of 5 to 7 ug/dL after the dexamethasone suppression test (DST) may not be pathologic if the laboratory carrying out the assay uses an unstandardized radioimmunoassay (RIA) method. We have used the DST to examine the plasma cortisol response in depressed patients, normal controls, and patients with other psychiatric illnesses.1 Initially, we used a commercially available RIA kit produced in Europe (kit A; details of suppliers are available on request). The results of our clinical investigations indicated a prevalence of abnormal DST responses in depressed patients similar to that reported by Carroll et al.2 However, after the completion of our study, the manufacturers of kit A withdrew their product from the market and substituted a new kit (kit B), which they claimed was "better" than kit A, as they had found that

Warning: Lots of screenshot charts today.
Tracking your progress can make you feel better about your art life and projects. I know that personally I've felt like I was doing things that had no purpose like random doodles or longer pieces for no aim and not suitable for a portfolio. I felt stagnant.
Then I decided to get busy and track my time to see how I could be more efficient. I started using a task timer through TaskCoach:
I read this post by Paolo Rivera and started using Google Calender:
(his image, not mine)
Another post by Paolo Rivera and I improved my freelance spreadsheet:
(his image again)
Finally, I started an Illolife RPG character in order to track my personal achievements. The ones that can often seem insignificant:
And because I'm a geek, it's not only color-coded but the total XP (over to the right) auto-calculates and changes color when I've reached a new level (it's green meaning I'm a level 2 but I haven't been accepted into the FB group yet which starts at level 1). Not to mention that you get to think of yourself as an artist warrior, conquering the many demons of the art world!
This is my Level 1 character sheet. It made me really think about my skills and honestly evaluate how I'm doing in my career soul-wise. Like do I really have the Will I think I do? Am I really networking and relating to other people? And of course it gave me a chance to test out my paint!
So if you feel like you're stagnating I suggest you:
- Look at how your spending your time and replace the time eaters with productivity.
- Get your finances, accounts, workflow, etc organized so you can fit things better into your available time.
- Find a fun way to track your progress. This isn't necessary but there are many things that feel like time eaters that are actually very beneficial to your growth. Like warming up properly. Which I'm really bad at doing.

With fan favorite mixed martial arts legends like Randy Couture, Chuck Liddell and Mirko Cro Cop recently hanging up the gloves, there is definitely a changing of the guard happening with MMA in 2011. Many people are also saying that the time is right for Wanderlei Silva to follow suit.
It is the brutal question in any aging and declining professional athlete's mind: When is the right time to retire from the game you love with no regrets?
Nick Diaz's destruction of BJ Penn this weekend has prompted the 32-year-old Penn to look in the mirror and ponder that very decision. Penn hinted at his retirement in the cage immediately following his loss but common belief and hope is that Penn steps back and takes his time with the finality of that decision.
Here are Penn and five fighters who retired too soon.

The discovery that new brain cells are created in some regions of the adult brain challenged long-held dogma and inspired many scientists to explore the regenerative capacity of the central nervous system (Eriksson PS et al. Nat Med. 1998:4[11]:1313-1317). As the body of research on neural repair grows, scientists are developing a better understanding of the potential and limits of this regenerative capacity and investigating how it might be harnessed for therapeutic purposes.

The Cleveland Indians' early exit from the playoffs shouldn't cloud a terrific first season under new manager Terry Francona. The Tribe went from a fourth-place, 94-loss team in 2012 to 92 wins and a wild-card berth this year. That's quite a feat.
They also showed the necessary tenaciousness down the stretch by winning 19 of their final 25 games to make up a 4.5-game deficit in the wild-card standings and leapfrog four teams in the final month. They're clearly a team on the rise, although it wouldn't hurt if general manager Chris Antonetti had another strong offseason.
The additions of established veterans Michael Bourn and Nick Swisher last winter put a dent in the team's payroll, but it's hard to imagine the Indians playing in October without them. Under-the-radar acquisitions, such as Yan Gomes and Scott Kazmir, also made this team much better.
Despite the Indians' successful season and a solid core of young talent, I wouldn't expect this winter to be any less eventful.
Here's everything you'll need to know before Antonetti and the front office get started.

Scott's tenure began in 1968 as a secretary at the Salem County Technical Institute. When the Institute became Salem Community College in September 1972, she became the secretary to the college's first president — Herbert Donaghay. She has been in this collegiate oval office ever since and has served as secretary for all six SCC presidents.
"I love my job," Scott said, a Pedricktown native and a graduate of Penns Grove High School. "It's going to be a very big adjustment for me not getting up every morning and coming to work."
While Scott's name is practically synonymous with SCC, the Carneys Point resident first worked at The Memorial Hospital of Salem County in the 1960s before leaving to start a family with her husband, Archie, who is now deceased. After her only child, Jeffrey, was born, she decided to return to work.
"My first thought was to go back to the hospital, but that didn't work out," she said. "There was an opportunity at the Salem County Technical Institute, so I applied and was offered the job."
That opportunity led to Scott becoming the college's longest-serving employee. She has been with SCC as it evolved from two buildings to five on the main campus and instructional sites in Salem, Alloway and Oldmans.
But Scott, who was selected the college's Employee of the Year in 1998, has been more than a spectator just standing on the sidelines of the college's evolution. She has been an integral part of its growth and development, according to current SCC President Dr. Peter B. Contini.
"Mary has been through some good times and some not so good times at the college," he said. "But through it all, she maintained the highest level of professionalism and integrity. That is who Mary is."
Scott's duties have ranged from maintaining the daily schedule of the president to helping to organize the college's annual fundraising Gala and everything in between. Her input has been sought on many committees, including strategic planning, reaccreditation and the President's Council.
Being chosen to assist every president and interim president at Salem Community College makes a strong statement as to the depth of character and reliability that Scott has earned.
Contini said he recognized Scott's talents as soon as he became president in 1997.
"I knew right away that Mary was one of those special people who had the ability to make things happen," he said. "She has an unwavering dedication to making Salem Community College and everyone associated with it a success.
"She has an exceptional sense of confidentiality," Contini said. "That, along with her no-nonsense approach, has earned Mary the respect and admiration of everyone she works with."
Mickey McAllister, who has worked with Scott in the Office of the President for more than 13 years said, "Mary is the backbone of the college. She has eased the transition from one president to another and when the Technical Institute became Salem Community College. It's difficult to imagine someone else accomplishing what she has done for over four decades."
Though Scott is humble about her achievements, preferring to see it as merely doing her job, those around her know it is something more.
Provost Joan Baillie, who will serve as interim president when Contini steps down at the end of this month, said Scott is a living representation of the college itself, knowing its entire history.
"She is the walking encyclopedia on SCC," Baillie said. "If you have a question about what's been done or how to do something, she is the one you want to talk to!"
Baillie also believes that the innate sense of discretion exhibited by Scott, has gained her the trust and respect of each president and board member at the college throughout her career.
"Mary has an impeccable character," Baillie continued, "She is a person who is confidential and always acts in the best interest of the college."
Perhaps benefiting the most from Scott's service at the college, Contini knows that her departure will leave a void that will be difficult to fill.
"Mary has left a legacy at Salem Community College," Contini said.
Scott has several plans for her retirement, including traveling and spending time with her family.
As she counts down the days, Scott maintains her trademark confidentiality. She politely declines to name her favorite president or any other "secrets" she may have encountered along her way.
"Maybe I'll write a book," she said with a wink.

Ice cream lady or Liberty statue?
Lithuanians used to start there town by making a square in the middle which was meant to be the main place of the town. They used to build some monuments in there, usually representing their struggle for freedom.
Rietavas also has its own Liberty Statue - a girl with torch of liberty. But in my memory it has a name of "ice cream lady" because that's how my English teacher who was American and came to Rietavas as Peace corps volunteer called it. And if you wanna solve the dillema - is that a torch or an ice cream in her hand, you better come and see with your own eyes..:)
Easter eggs decoration
That requires lots of patience and help from your family members or friends. Lithuanians use plants' leaves, wax, onion peels and many other kinds of stuff to decorate Easter eggs. In Rietavas surroundings the Easter egg decoration is quite different than in other Lithuania places or big towns. For more details look at my Rietavas travelogue about Easter eggs preparation.

Report: Apple seeks to hire former Google employees for help with its mapping app
0. phoneArena 24 Sep 2012, 10:31 posted on
According to a report, Apple is actively looking to hire former Google employees to help repair its ailing maps application in iOS 6; the Cupertino based tech giant is looking for those who have experience working on Google Maps...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

I give Apple credit tho for trying to do their own thing. In the end....it might wind up being iGoogle Maps...lol

yea... i just went and downloaded the app again...
they still had 1 year left int heir contract with Google..

"TIM TOM Maps" a cross breed of TIM and TOM.

iF I WERE I WOULD SAY NO. Let them figure it by there selves after all they are the ones that decided to ditch it so why help them if they didn't want it from the first place?
52. wolstenbeast (Posts: 25; Member since: 21 Sep 2012)
Most companies when introducing a new product, tend to ensure basic functionality on first releases, they then tend to add on the fancy stuff in an organic way, a piece at a time ensuring it all works in harmony. Apple however, painted themselves into a corner by booting out Google Maps, they needed something that at least had something fancy and new to justify denying their users Google Maps.
This has lead to lots of glitzy for show add ons like "fly over views" , before they had time to try and perfect basic mapping functionality. Thus making the App itself, buggy as hell and Apple steam rolling a unmarket ready app to it's end consumers.
An ethical solution would have been to restore Google Maps and delay their own App release until it was at least semi market ready.
Instead I am waiting for the first lemming to drive off a cliff and Apple to come out and say "you're steering it wrong!"

Data is the most important resource going forward and Google has its hands on a very large part of it.

Apple are so f**king stupid!
Why not take a license on Nokia maps like Microsoft did. They have the best smartphone navigation data and program. If they can port Nokia maps to meego-harmattan and Windows Phone then it shouldn't be a problem to port it to iOS or ANdroid for that matter. Particularly since Harmattan is also linux based like Android and linux is a lot like unix (iOS).
Be smart and for once really consider consumers instead of YOUR wallets.
I f**king hate these stupid corporations. Instead of working together and license the best bits from each other the proper way and diversify through real innovation, they do nothing else than to piss us off. And we are supposed to buy their crap? I urge EVERY consumer to boycot ALL of them in 2012/2013 and to NOT buy a new model smartphone (whatever they had planned).
Skip this year as a protest!

Stealing ideas from previous employee's, doesn't the same Apple blames on Android?

**Isn't the same
68. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
Apple calls it's own attempts at thieving/stealing/ripping off/ as "Innovation" ... it's cheating only if others do it :)
67. rusticguy (Posts: 2828; Member since: 11 Aug 2012)
this is yet another insult to the followers. Apple is nothing but a good recipe company .. apple would only be chasing their own shadow forever ... forget about competing in mobile world .. :)
73. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Nothing wrong with this, really, though it is funny that Apple has had to resort to this.
On the one hand, I find the Apple Maps fiasco hilarious.
On the other, I feel bad for the customers who have to deal with Apple Maps in the meantmie.
74. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
on the other other hand, i stop feeling bad for any apple customer that knows about the foxconn bullcrap and still buys their product. If they know they are supporting suicidal working conditions, then they deserve more than "apple maps".
76. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
I can't say too much about Apple and Foxconn because Foxconn isn't exclusive to Apple, and working conditions in China (where pretty much everything is made) are awful to begin with.
77. remixfa (Posts: 14255; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
yes, but we both know working conditions at apple are worse than the average foxconn factory.. per what foxconn has said. "each factory is run by the client's wishes and in contract"

good luck apple! wish that you could get rid of that rediculous maps of yours! but as for now, nokia maps on a browser!
82. corgilot (Posts: 8; Member since: 25 Sep 2012)
How is something like this not considered to be a conflict of interest?
85. me4mindia (Posts: 2; Member since: 26 Sep 2012)
I would say that its dishonor from apple. Apple you can make it without Google former employees, if not so, please agrees that you don't have good developer so far, who can help you to win Google Map. People (???) are waiting for your classic mobile by design and look. Even if you say, this is the place in US. People would blindly agree. Lol. People had a thought no one can beat Apple. This is absolutely wrong
I am NOT saying Android is better than apple. But they are making better than you Apple. For ex: When we talk about Call reject with message feature, I could see this feature in Symbian OS in 2004 itself. Both apple and Google is revamping the existing features. I don't know where the patent issue comes here…
I still have few OPEN (Hope many of us have the same) questions about patent/feature, who introduced the below.
Notification bar
OTA update
Panorama Camera features
Don't you guys think, Apple did a copy from Google? Apple please stops earning money from others.
***You can go in your way. Let other choose their way. Of course, you both possibly meet at some point of time***
89. epdm2be (Posts: 494; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
Some possible answers.
Multitasking: --> multitasking on a handheld device Psion (Epoc32 the grandfather of Symbian) or Microsoft (Pocket PC 2000)
Notification bar: Nokia -> Meego-harmattan
OTA update: Nokia -> Symbian S60
Panorama Camera features: Nokia -> N8
Bluetooth: Ericsson
Pen input on handheld device: Microsoft (Pocket PC)
Wifi Syncing: Microsoft (Pocket PC) removed in later versions
Full swype controll: Nokia (harmattan)
interactive task manager: Nokia -> harmattan
Your question: who is copying what from whom is valid.
Next we know is Apple hiring (ex-)Google employees to fix maps, later sues Google for copying the look and feel of Apple Maps...hahahaha. Fools

LOS ALAMOS, N.M. (AP) - More than three months after the Cerro Grande wildfire engulfed a Los Alamos neighborhood, the first home is being rebuilt.
"I hate to sound like that cliche, but it's kind of like that Phoenix that rises," said Walter Temple, supervising the reconstruction of his duplex, which he shares with his stepson and his wife, Ralph and Michelle Hinde, on 48th Street in northern Los Alamos.
Over 200 homes were destroyed when the fire, which began May 3 as a prescribed burn to clear brush at nearby Bandelier National Monument, swept down from the Jemez Mountains into town, forcing evacuation of 20,000 people.
The fire traveled through the trees, almost as if it was deciding which homes it would burn. As the flames tore into the houses, fragments from explosions flew through the air onto other homes, burning them to the ground also.
In the aftermath, some houses directly on the fire line look untouched. Others, blocks away, have nothing left standing. On some streets, three or four houses in a row are completely destroyed, while the next stands in perfect condition.
As the town was evacuated May 10, the Hindes were only able to save a few precious items. Photo albums, family pictures, Michelle's wedding dress, clothing, a bag of toys for their 3-year-old son and the family dog left the home with them.
Lost were such treasured items as a red vest Ralph's grandfather had worn every Christmas, and Ralph's two drum sets.
When they evacuated, their cat was nowhere to be found. But a few days later, while watching the news, Michelle spotted the feline rummaging through the buildings as television cameras panned the burned area.
"That's our cat!" she yelled.
Temple said his family didn't want to delay the cleanup and rebuilding process, especially since Ralph and Michelle are expecting their second child.
"After the fire, we went to Albuquerque and sat down and planned what we were going to do," said Temple, a former construction worker from Massachusetts.
Leaning on the support of their insurance agency and their own funds, Temple and Hinde hired an asbestos abatement company and then found Les Templeton, of Templeton Design and Custom Homes.
"We were off and running," Temple said. "We went to the county and jumped through all the hoops they put us through."
While Los Alamos County has recently begun to clean up some of the burned areas, the foundation on Temple's new home is almost complete. The next step is to have the design approved by the county's Planning and Zoning Commission.
"It's just like any other (house building) job, adding the abatement and the cleanup," Michelle said. "So far, they (the county) have been very cooperative."
Temple hopes the duplex will be complete by Christmas.
"It's an extreme relief because we hate to be in a temporary situation especially with a new baby," said Michelle. "We're getting really excited."
Even in her excitement, Michelle said she feels sorry for those residents who will wait longer to have their homes rebuilt. She acknowledges that without her father-in-law's construction background and the engineering expertise she and her husband have, they would probably be waiting along with everyone else for the county to clean up and rebuild.
"We've been very lucky," she said.
County spokesman Bill Lehman said everyone should have the opportunity to rebuild on their own, but the county is ready to help those who don't have resources like the Hindes.
"I applaud those people," Lehman said. "But it would have been difficult for 400 people to have 400 individual contractors. When we take on the burden it may seem like we're moving a little slower."
Lehman said he anticipates the cleanup process in Los Alamos to be completed in about four months.

Hey, you know what I haven't done in a while? Well, okay, write for 48 Minutes of Hell is technically a correct answer, but I was going to say, "put together a link list!" (Why aren't you more excited?)
It's the second round of the NBA playoffs, and unlike last season the San Antonio Spurs are still playing, which means there's plenty of good writing and a hearty helping of hilarity out there on the internets for you to enjoy.
First and foremost, stop by Hardwood Paroxysm and read Matt Moore's thoughts on game one of the Suns-Spurs series (His preview is worth taking a look at as well. I basically agree with every word of the last two paragraphs). Do it quickly because he won't be blogging for much longer; this series is sure to give him a heart attack. While you're at it, read Dan Devine's piece on young point guards making their mark this postseason and Kelly Dwyer's always illuminating Behind the Box Score column, both at Ball Don't Lie.
On a lighter note, the gentlemen at The Basketball Jones have made an unfortunate connection between Manu's nose protector and a certain feminine product. And if you're not already checking out Doc Funk's photo caption recaps, you should be. They've been a daily source of laughter during the playoffs. (N.B. there is some adult language, especially when photos of Kevin Garnett are involved.)
Lastly, please swing by and check out the May edition of Norman Einstein's Sports and Rocket Science Monthly. Your humble author contributed an audio essay reflecting on the aesthetic significance of the hard foul during the NBA playoffs. Give it a listen if you've got the time.
