Music to Your Ears
By Michael Henningsen
In yet another boneheaded decision by a local band, the formerly brilliantly named Mr. Spectacular have officially and rather unfortunately changed their name to Fivehundred, which, in my opinion, is meaningless and utterly forgetable, quite unlike the band formerly known as Mr. Spectacular. For their sake, let's hope they make their upcoming South By Southwset appearance as Mr. Spectacular, the band the SXSW folks are expecting. Congratulations, guys. And shame on you. ... The New Mexico Symphony Orchestra, who are not considering a name change, will host their first-ever media auction on Thursday, Feb. 12, at the NMSO offices at 4407 Menaul NE. Attendees will have the opportunity to cast their bids on more than 50 lots, including valuable advertising packages from many of Albuquerque's top media outlets. KKOB-AM afternoon windbag Jim Villanucci will provide stand-up comedy, while members of the NMSO will provide music during the event. All proceeds from the auction will benefit NMSO's youth education programs. Tickets are $20. Call 881-8999 for more information. ... If I don't mention the following this week, Mary B will hunt me down and kill me: Mary B and her parent company, 89.9-FM KUNM, will present Texas polka legends Brave Combo for the 713th time on Friday, Feb. 27, at the Paramount in Santa Fe, and for the 714th time on Saturday, Feb. 28, at the Sunshine Theater. Stay tuned to future issues for a full preview of these Polish-friendly events.
Blue Note

Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1: Arcadi Volodos, Piano with Berliner Philharmoniker (Sony Classical)
Thanks to its unforgettable opening melody, which invariably insinuates its way into the heart, Tchaikovsky's First Piano Concerto has earned a deservedly permanent place in the repertoire. Arcadi Volodos' rendition of the concerto is the third to arrive from a major label in the past few months. As with the other two, the first featuring Lang Lang backed by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Daniel Barenboim (Universal Classics), the other showcasing 2001's Eleventh Van Cliburn International Piano Competition winner Olga Kern and the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra and Christopher Seaman (Harmonia Mundi), the recording is available as an SACD-hybrid multi-channel disc.
Music Magnified
Hot Water Music
with Bouncing Souls, Longshot and Let It Burn
By Michael Henningsen
Thursday, Feb. 19; Sunshine Theater (all ages, 7 p.m.): Somewhere between Quicksand's post-hardcore fury, Social Distortion's three-chord Californicated version of the Ramones' classic sound and At the Drive In's clear-cut emo, you'll find the Hot Water Music sound. Sure, tons of other comparisons can be drawn (Burning Airlines, late-era Helmet, the entire stable of Dischord bands circa 1989, and so on), but the only thing you really need to know is that of all the bands currently treading emo's ever quaking, never-quite-solid ground, Hot Water Music tread the lightest and with the biggest stick. Their various and wide range of influences are pressure cooked within the confines of Chuck Ragan and Chris Wollard's twin guitar/lead vocal blast furnace, then simmered into thick post-punk riffs and near-anthemic choruses.
Music Magnified
Deep Purple
with Thin Lizzy
By Michael Henningsen
Tuesday, Feb. 17; Kiva Auditorium (Albuquerque Convention Center, all ages, 7:30 p.m.): Laugh out loud all you want, but Albuquerque is nothing if not a classic rock town. At one time in the not-so-distant past, our city boasted the most classic rock radio stations in the entire Western United States. And they all thrived, right up until those two companies bought up all the radio stations in the Western United States.
Music Magnified
The Dark Star Orchestra
with the spirit of Jerry Garcia
By Michael Henningsen
Tuesday, Feb. 17; Stella Blue (21 and over, 9 p.m.): In the spirit of not letting dead Garcias lie, the Dark Star Orchestra tour the country presenting excruciatingly detailed reenactments of Grateful Dead shows, set list for set list, song for song, concert for concert. Going far beyond the realm of most "tribute" bands, the Dark Star Orchestra recreate specific Dead shows given on specific dates, which they keep secret until the encore of each show. They even go so far as to present the shows using replicas of the instruments the Dead used for the original performances. The audience, some of whom may have seen the Dead show to be played out once again, can get clues as to the date of the original show by checking mic number and placement, keyboard setup, guitar and bass varieties, etc., assuming that attending Grateful Dead shows has been their life's work. A Dark Star Orchestra show is just like being dead all over again.
Sonic Reducer
By Michael Henningsen
Puddle of Mudd Life on Display (Flawless/Geffen)
Puddle of Mudd are like the book-learners you went to high school with: They studied Nirvana and the grunge movement with precision only to come away with a sterile knowledge of the music but no feel for its underlying soul. They're moderately effective emulators, but there's nary an original idea in their collective head. Life on Display is a bland, repetitive exercise in music that meant something a dozen years ago. Bereft of hooks or exemplary songwriting, it falls flat on its face in its first seconds and doesn't bother to struggle to its feet. Frat dicks will love it.

'A Lot About Living'
Alan Jackson • country
By Joshua Lee
As Ludwig von Beethoven once said, "Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life." Those words still carry weight, even now: a thousand years later. And you'll find no better example than the incomparable Alan Jackson, whose voice and countenance rival those of the gods, as though he were hewn from the heart of the sun itself. His honky tonk tunes are swords of righteous terror and beauty which melt the eardrums…

By Peter Karlsen
Once upon a time, back in 2004, in the distant land of Arizona, there was born a folk-punk band by the name of Andrew Jackson Jihad. It was a mouthful, so they decided to go by the acronym AJJ. Then they decided to formally change their name to that. Soon they'll be at the Launchpad. People in this town like to shit on the folk-punkers, but fuck those jerks…

Hit 'em with the High and the Low
Palisades • electronicore • It Lives, It Breathes • post-hardcore • Darke Complex • metal
By Megan Reneau
There is a rhythmic connection between genres dubstep and metalcore. One band that's done phenomenal in this kind of mashup (referred to as electronicore) is Palisades originating from Iselin, N.J. Having been to their last show in town, I can guarantee that they put on an equally energetic and high quality show, which makes sense because after going on over 20 tours in the last four years, they are likely to have nearly perfected their performance technique. These guys just don't quit—or take a break for that matter—and I'm glad they haven't. In addition to the supporting bands It Lives, It Breaths and Darke Complex this is going to be a good fucking time. They'll be in town on Sunday, Oct. 9, at the gem of a locale, Blu Phoenix Venue,and tickets are only $8! Doors open at 6pm, and it's likely to be packed so get there on time (or early).

WASHINGTON - Federal authorities called the alleged terrorist plot to blow up JFK Airport in New York "chilling." They said that if the terrorists were able to carry out their plot, they could have caused "unthinkable" damage to life and property, possibly crippling the U.S. economy.
Missing from the announcement was any assessment of the likelihood of such a plot actually coming to fruition. New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said, "You have a much greater danger of being hit by lightning than being struck by a terrorist."
He then added, "Get a life!"
Former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski recently asserted that the "war on terror" is causing us infinitely more harm than anything that the fanatical perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks could ever have imagined.
A culture of fear has turned America away from being a confident nation to one that is susceptible to panic attacks. As a result, from foreign policy to domestic law enforcement, we see more hype than reason, and more paranoia than realistic concerns.
President Franklin Roosevelt once said, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Today, our fears are not so much the consequence of realistic threat assessments but rather politically motivated fear-mongering.
The day after the announcement of the JFK Airport plot, I met with John Mueller, who holds the Woody Hayes Chair of National Security Studies at Ohio State University.
Mueller recently wrote a book called "Overblown: How Politicians and the Terrorism Industry Inflate National Security Threats, and Why We Believe Them." He spoke about how the JFK plot had all the markings of a "fantasy" and how once again, the whole thing appears to be overblown.
President Bush and his supporters keep scaring us by saying that if we do not fight the terrorists in Baghdad, they will be attacking us in Boise. If true, what does that say about the billions of dollars we have poured into boosting security measures since 9/11?
Is this a tacit admission that our government cannot protect us despite having assumed constitutionally questionable powers such as eavesdropping on our conversations; building a wall on our southern frontier; listing more than 400,000 names on a terrorist watch list; and making visitors wait months to get their visas for entry while time-consuming security checks are completed?
Terrorists cannot destroy America. They can occasionally produce deadly attacks, but we are too powerful and too resourceful a nation for terrorists to pose an existential threat.
The chances of dying in a terrorist attack are one in 80,000. According to one study, only the odds of dying from earthquake, flood or firework discharge are lower. We are more likely to die from heart disease or for not wearing a seat belt than from a terrorist attack.
Military analyst William Arkin wrote in the Washington Post:
"I think it is intellectually shallow to compare terrorists ... with our enemies during the Cold War or the Second World War, who could have indeed destroyed our societies. ... Every time we pretend we are fighting for our survival we not only confer greater power and importance to terrorists than they deserve but we also at the same time act as their main recruiting agent by suggesting that they have the slightest potential for success."
Terrorists and fear-mongers will persist, just as they have throughout human history.
I share Mueller's pessimism that, despite the low odds of terrorists succeeding, "Politicians will be inclined to sanctimoniously play to those fears. ... Bureaucrats will stoke the same fears. ... The entrepreneurs of the Current Danger industry ... will first work very hard to sustain and milk the one currently within their grasp. ... And the press ... will continue to make sure that what bleeds leads."
The power to change this situation is in the hands of those who choose not to remain silent, despite the unpopularity of drawing attention to the truths articulated by an academic, a former security official and a mayor, among many others.
We no longer can afford to let agenda-driven hype replace sober reassessments of international and domestic policies.

Now, DISCLIAMER: I think the voice acting is beautiful.
Is it just me or is voice actor crossover getting you down? I just picked up Disgaea 3 and I kinda dig where it's going, even if I'm scared by the level cap going to 9999 (or so the save data wants me to beleive) but I can't get myself to stop thinking the first 3 characters I met, Mao, Raspberyl and Almaz by their voice actors other roles!
Mao ( Vic Mignogna) is either Edward Elric - Full Metal Alchemist or Junpei, Raspberyl ( Laura Bailey) is Amber - Darker Than Black or Rise and Almaz ( Johnny Yung-Bosch) is either Ichigo - Bleach or Adachi!
At first when I started following my favourite voice actors through their games I thought it was fun and I like the thought of them getting a paycheck, but it's kinda getting me down now. Anyone else feeling like recognising voices takes you out of it a bit?
On a hypocritical note, it'll be nice to listen to Quinton Flynn's gorgeous voice again this september <3

The non-partisan, non-profit Tax Foundation has released its latest ranking of state sales taxes and Massachusetts ranks 31st (with No. 1 having the highest rate).
Unlike many other states, Massachusetts , which has a sales tax of 6.25 percent, does not allow municipalities to levy their own sales taxes.
The highest combined rate is 9.44 percent in Tennessee, which has a 7 percent state tax and an average local rate of 2.44 percent. California, Arizona, Louisiana and Washington are at the top just below Tennessee.

Historical Traveler Reviews Yichen International Hotel Zhangjiajie
Loved The Lodge
We stayed overnight at The Lodge and we had a quad room. This hotel is brillant - the rooms are a good size, really clean and the bathroom was spotless. The staff were really helpful. Good choice - you will not be disappointed.
Everything was good!
Everything was clean and well presented. Staff wre helpful, shower was great (room for 2)! Taxi to town cost �3 or alternatively you can walk, which only takes 10-15mins. Breakfast was superb with lots of selection, and you get free tea, coffee or juice 24hrs a day. the only thing I would say is if you dont like feather pillows then either take your own, or book in advance for other pillows.
Have a great time!
This is an excellent hotel.
The beds are fantastic, really, really comfortable. The rooms are very large. We had a double double room that easily sleeps four adults. The bathrooms are spotless and amazing shower.
Biggest bonus for us was the free tea, coffee, hot chocolate, fruit juice, choc chip muffins, fruit etc etc There were 10 of us on a girls night out in Cardiff and coming back in the early hours of the morning and relaxing in the lobby with hot drinks and muffins was the cherry on the cake!
We are already arranging out next night out to Cardiff and will be definately staying here again!!
Great Place!!
We have just returned from a girls weekend in Cardiff. The Lodge has excellent service, clean rooms, and plenty of refreshments!!!. Wold highly recommend it, just a 5 minute taxi ride from city centre.
Very satisfied
We wanted to explore Cardiff so on the strength of favourable reviews of this hotel we decided to spend a night here. We weren't disappointed. Our room was comfortable, clean, quiet and very pleasant. Wonderful shower and excellent wall-mounted flat screen TV. The staff were all very pleasant and welcoming, and the continental breakfast selection was excellent. Three different types of fresh croissants......and we were also offered a full cooked breakfast at no extra charge. I think this may be a new feature. The only slight downside is that you are a bit away from either the centre or the wonderful new Cardiff Bay area, but it is walkeable to the city and you do get free car parking.
what a fantastic hotel, i cant say enough good things about it! it was clean,tidy,modern, staff were very friendly and helpful. the room was excellent, very comfortable with a lovely spacious bathroom.
there were complimentary drinks (tea coffee juice) , muffins and fruit - not to mention the huge selection at breakfast.
we will definitely be staying there again!
Clean, comfortable, excellent value for money
We stayed here for 1 night mid-week. The double room was clean with 2 big double beds. Also, very quiet. No traffic noise despite being located by a busy road.
Breakfast was continental, with plenty of choice. Also, you can help yourself to juices, tea, coffee in the lobby area all day.
Staff were also very helpful. We walked to the city centre, which only took about 15-20 mins.
A very competitively priced hotel, with all you could want for a stay in Cardiff.
Like an upmarket travel lodge
I was attracted to the Lodge by MacDonald Hotel as the room rates were cheaper than many other hotels in central Cardiff.
When we arrived we were pleasently surprised. A newly built, very modern, spacious hotel with huge superior rooms and nice fittings.
I would describe this hotel as like an 'upmarket travel lodge'.
At �75 per room including breakfast the price was good for central Cardiff. The city centre was only a 10 minute stroll away.
My group and I were running in the Cardiff Marathon event and the hotel laid on an early breakfast. We also negotiated a complimentary late check-out as we did not finish our 26 mile run until early afternoon.
No other facilities or restaurant though a large free car park and complimentary hot, cold drinks and snacks in the reception were an added bonus.
Loads of decent restaurants in and around Cardiff.
Good quality fittings, excellent service
Wow, great quality budget. Free refreshments. Will definitely use this again
Fab stay!!!!
we stayed at the hotel as a group of 4 young girls on a weekend away in cardiff, we absolutely loved it, it was fantastic! the hotel was stunning, very clean and lovely and new!!!!!!
the room itself was very clean, has lovely decor and a plasma screen tv, the bathroom is lovely and the shower is massive!
downstairs in the reception area has lovely seating area and has a bar with tea in every flavour possible, coffee and hot chocolate and also fruit juice machines which is all complimentary, you can also eat choc chip muffins 24 hours a day which are also free.
we had a fab stay and when we couldnt find fast food at 3 in the morning the staff were very friendly and tried to get a taxi for us to take us somewhere so that we could get some food!
overall a fantastic stay and i will definitely stay there again!!!!!

It's not like it's an expensive ticket, so I'm thinking that either I'll call them tomorrow and ask if they'll just change it because it's on Offpeak (refund and rebuy just doesn't seem to work), or if I should just show up in Bath on my home and say I've bought the wrong day and see if they'll take it. If they don't, it's only a four pound ticket home and I can't imagine ...

Jen Van Allen says to make your training personal
The athlete:
Jen Van Allen
Running résumé:
Fourteen years after her first bout with 26.2, Runner's World special projects editor Jen Van Allen has conquered more than 36 marathons and ultras. Always chasing a new challenge, she took first place in the National 24-Hour Championship in 2008, covering more than 123 miles and earning a spot on Team USA at the IAU 24-Hour World Championships in 2009. Van Allen is co-author of the upcoming "Runner's World Big Book of Marathon and Half-Marathon Training" (June 2012) and manages the Runner's World Challenge, an online, comprehensive training program for marathon and half-marathon hopefuls.
Sage advice:
Make it personal. When you're in training, resist the temptation to compare yourself to others. If you fixate on a finish time that sounds impressive, or worry about beating some super mom down the street, you'll completely miss out on one of the biggest rewards of running: gaining the confidence and joy that come with pushing yourself farther and faster than you've ever gone before. You'll log hundreds of miles while preparing for the big event -- more than most people run in an entire lifetime. Go out there each day and give it all that you have, and commit to being proud of whatever that amounts to. Make your race a celebration of all the hard work you did to get to the starting line.

There's so much football stuff over at ESPN.com that articles can get lost -- especially with the new redesign that actually has fewer links on the page than before -- so I wanted to point out this interesting piece out for anyone who missed it. It's a look at what all 32 teams would do if injuries forced them to go with an emergency quarterback. Some of the responses are obvious, as guys like Denard Robinson and Trey Burton were quarterbacks in college. Others are more surprising, guys who were high school quarterbacks such as Eric Weddle and Owen Daniels.

This week, SI's Peter King ponders Brock Osweiler's debut for Denver and what it means for the Broncos going forward; the middle-of-the-pack teams in the NFL, and which might be capable of a playoff upset; a strange call at the end of Cincinnati-Arizona; and possible offseason destinations for Colin Kaepernick.

Trevor Siemian and Carson Wentz rank in the bottom three in average air yards. Do good quarterbacks usually increase their air yards with more experience, or do their passes actually get shorter over time?

At $35, the yield would still be about 2.5% (still above mkt yield), and the PE about 15 (still cheap--compare that to 3000 PE of Amazon!).
Sentiment: Strong Buy
IMO it never should have been taken below $25 in the first place,very good value shares if you have a longer term perspective.

The average U.S. household rating of 1.4 for Tuesday night's USA-Mexico match on ESPN matched the previous record for a U.S. qualifier set when the USA played Mexico at Mexico City's Estadio Azteca on March 26, 2013.
Dos a Cero IV averaged 2,243,000 viewers on ESPN, making it the second most viewed U.S. men's national team game on the network that wasn't at the World Cup or Confederations Cup.
The record is 2,385,000 average viewers for the March Mexico-USA qualifier.
The two USA-Mexico World Cup qualifiers have helped boost the average rating for the current round of qualifiers on ESPN networks to 0.8, an increase of 60 percent compared to the 2010 qualifiers.
The audience for Tuesday's game was measured from 7:41 p.m. ET, 20 minutes before the start of the game, so the in-game audience for Dos a Cero IV would have been considerably higher.
The pre-game show that began at 7:00 p.m. ET averaged 783,000 viewers.
Top USA-Mexico RATINGS:
5.1 Columbus, Ohio
3.3 Miami-Ft. Lauderdale
3.2 Buffalo
2.8 Dayton, Ohio
2.8 Washington, DC
2.7 San Diego
2.7 New York
2.6 Seattle-Tacoma
2.5 San Antonio
2.5 West Palm Beach
WATCHESPN RECORDS.USA-Mexico from Columbus was the most viewed World Cup qualifying match in 2013 on WatchESPN across computers, smartphones, tablets, Xbox and Apple TV with nearly 118,000 live unique viewers and 4.7 million live minutes.
FUTBOL PICANTE PEAKS.Futbol Picante, ESPN Deportes' soccer show, was seen by 241,600 and 156,700 Hispanic viewers for special post-match editions following Mexico's qualifiers on Friday and Tuesday, respectively. They are the two most-watched shows of the year.

The Florida National Guard's top officer on Thursday endorsed the Pentagon's decision to clear women for combat roles in the U.S. military.
Maj. Gen. Emmett Titshaw Jr., who holds the title of Adjutant General of Florida, called it a "historic decision" in a statement from headquarters in St. Augustine and said the Guard supports it.
Razorbills, cold-weather birds with penguin-like features, have been unlikely visitors to South Florida over the past few weeks, attracting bird watchers to the coast of Palm Beach County and creating speculation about why they're here.
"This is a historic ornithological event," said Carl Edwards, an avid bird-watcher from West Palm Beach who took three boat trips out of the Boynton Inlet recently to observe the Northeastern, ocean-going birds, which have also been spotted off Miami Beach and the Florida Keys.
TALLAHASSEE -- Thousands of state workers haven't received pay raises in years, but Division of Blind Services worker Caroline McManus was due for a $97,000 boost overnight.
The plan: to quit her $59,000 computer programming position and return the next day as a $156,000 contractor.
All the managers approved it. Same job, same desk, more than double the pay.
While that sounds like a great deal for the employee, it also violates a law that bans workers from leaving state jobs and returning within two years for more money.
Let the 2014 election begin.
In a prelude to a long and bitter campaign, former Gov. Charlie Crist pointedly criticized Gov. Rick Scott during a U.S. Senate hearing Wednesday over an elections law that led to voting troubles and helped turn Florida into a "late-night TV joke."
Crist's Senate Judiciary Committee testimony came just hours after a new poll showed he's more popular than the current governor, who is preparing to face his predecessor on the 2014 ballot.
TALLAHASSEE -- It is definitely not the Governor's Mansion. There are no stately white columns on the modest house 3 miles east of the state Capitol.
But that's the return address on envelopes containing a Christmas card and a $25 historical Christmas ornament sent to several thousand of Gov. Rick Scott's supporters.
The mail is from Let's Get to Work, the political committee raising money for Scott's 2014 campaign, but the name of the committee appears on the envelopes as "Let's Go to Work.''
TALLAHASSEE -- Florida utility regulators on Thursday will consider one of the most pivotal cases of their term — whether to approve a base rate increase of more than $543 million for Florida Power & Light without the consent of the office that represents consumers.
The proposed settlement would mean a $1 per month increase for typical customers next year and would allow the company to automatically raise rates again for two new power plants without the approval of the Public Service Commission in 2014 and 2016.
Although the encounter got Shannon Linn Abbott arrested, it didn't get her fired. The 33-year-old bailed out and was back on the job right afterward and supervising children, to the extreme dismay of the Department of Juvenile Justice.
On Tuesday, a DJJ administrator formally asked the privately managed youth prison's director to remove the guard from all access to children.
"It is our expectation, at the very least, that this staff member will have no contact with youth in any of our programs," wrote Laura K. Moneyham, a DJJ assistant secretary.
TALLAHASSEE -- Florida's new legislative leaders handed out hefty raises and salaries to many of their top staff and newly hired talent even as thousands of state workers went for a sixth year without a bump in pay.
Senate President Don Gaetz and House Speaker Will Weatherford, who were sworn in last month, immediately hired new chiefs of staff and paid them more than taxpayers pay state Cabinet officials. They are paying 62 top policy advisors and staff directors more than $100,000 a year. And they gave salary increases totaling $252,000 to their 17 highest paid employees.
Wendy Pedroso has never liked math, but for most of elementary and middle school she got B's in the subject.
It wasn't until ninth grade at Miami Southwest Senior High School, when Pedroso took algebra, that she hit a wall, struggling particularly with fractions.
She sought help from tutors, took algebra again over the summer and passed.
TALLAHASSEE - Open government advocates increased the heat on state officials to unleash access to a budget transparency web site Friday as the Senate president continued to distance himself from the site under his control.
Senate President Don Gaetz, R-Niceville, announced the he was asking Sen. Jeremy Ring, D-Margate, to develop legislation to create a "user-friendly, accurate, cost-effective, web-based transparency tool" for the state budget that could include or replace the system developed by Spider Data Systems.
TALLAHASSEE -- For the second time in over a year, a state judge has ruled that the Florida Legislature violated the law when it tried to privatize the state's role in operating prisons.
Leon County Circuit Court Judge John Cooper on Tuesday struck down an attempt by the Florida Legislature to privatize prison health care by using a budgetary process instead of making the change through a full vote of lawmakers.

Paralympic Games: Day 3
- 1 September 2012
- From the section Student reports
Day three of the Paralympic Games sees the wheelchair tennis action get under way at Eton Manor in the Olympic Park, with Great Britain's players hoping for more success in a sport which has proved a reliable source of medals in recent years.
School Reporters from Robert Clack School in Dagenham interviewed members of the GB wheelchair tennis squad - not just about their medal chances but about the bigger picture of what the Paralympic Games can achieve in changing the perception of disability in the UK among young people.
In addition to the top players at the Paralympics, School Report also have two wheelchair tennis stars of their own in the shape of Charlie and Abby at Hastings High School in Leicestershire.
And why not check out Charlie's daily diary about the Paralympics too?
Meanwhile, School Reporters have also been covering other Paralympic athletes and sports as part of a summer of reporting on a historic year for the UK and the pupils of St Angela's Ursuline School in Newham have been sending in their reflections and updates from inside the Olympic Park!
1106: School Reporter Janet from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It's one thing to be able to say that the Games were here when I was but it is another to say I was a part of it and it is an experience I will treasure for the rest of my life."
1101: School Reporter Michele from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It has been the most fun experience I have had and I am creating many memories along the way. :-)"
1056: School Reporter Samia from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It's a great experience and I can go away with memories and tell people that I was working at the Paralympic Games for London 2012!"
1049: School Reporter Hilary from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It is fun to watch medals being awarded and also inspiring to witness such extraordinary talent. Simply amazing!"
1032: School Reporter Lauren from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It's inspiring and awe-evoking to be a part of history, it makes me even more proud to be British to be surrounded by the glory of London and the Paralympics coming home! :-)"
1030: School Reporter Elaine, 16, from St Angela's Ursuline School
"It is so great to play an active part by being a young Games Maker in one of the greatest events in history! :)"
One of the aims of London 2012 has been to "inspire a generation" and when it comes to living up that motto, the ParalympicsGB tennis squad take their duties very seriously.
School Reporters Chelsea, Stephanie and Sonakshi from Robert Clack School took the opportunity to quiz them - and coach Paul Regan - and asked some big questions about the role the Paralympics can play in society.
"It's fantastic to have a platform to allow anybody to compete regardless of their ability or disability," said Regan, who also spoke about the legacy of improved indoor and outtdoor facilities for his sport in east London.
"The Paralympic movement is fantastic - it allows disabled people who have a talent and an athletic ability to be able to perform at the highest level. It's a great advert for sport."
Wheelchair tennis player Louise Hunt, taking part in her first Paralympics, gave this genuinely inspirational take on the potential impact of the Games on young people, with or without disabilities.
"The key message is that no matter what you're ability or what hurdles you come across in life you can achieve whatever you want to," she said.
"It takes a lot of commitment and hard work but anything is possible for anyone to achieve."
And you can read more about Chelsea, Stephanie and Sonakshi's coverage of wheelchair tennis in the report they wrote for BBC News School Report about the experience.
"I don't normally play sport in a wheelchair, but when I'm with Charlie I do" - the words of Abby, who is being taught how to play wheelchair tennis by her best friend.
The two 13-year-olds, who attend Hastings High School in Burbage, Leicestershire, have grown up together and keen sportsman Charlie was keen to show his buddy the ropes.
He is delighted Abby took up the challenge, but she readily admits she is going to need a lot of practice to give him a proper test!
After a tough baptism in their opening two group games against Lithuainia and Turkey, the GB men's goalball team need a big improvement against Sweden.
School Report has been closely involved with the sport thanks to 15-year-old David Knott, a member of the ParalympicsGB team himself and - when he has the time - a School Reporter!
As well as helping produce a brilliant guide to his sport, David interviewed his older brother Adam - also in the goalball squad - in a report to mark one-year to go until the Paralympics, giving an insight into the sacrifices athletes need to make.
And look out for more to come from the Knott brothers and School Report!

Dannii Minogue shuts down pregnancy rumours with white hot Twitter pic
- From: news.com.au
- April 11, 2014
DANNII Minogue has quashed those lingering pregnancy rumours — for now at least.
The X Factor judge posted a photo on her Twitter account overnight wearing a skin-tight, white dress from backstage while filming the Channel 7 talent show.
The bodycon number shows off the 42-year-old's tiny frame and flat tummy and from what we can see, there's no hint of a bun in the oven.
The pic, taken with friend Esther Lanham, reads: "Mums out on the prowl #TeamMinogue".
The rumour mill has been in full swing of late as to whether the singer might be expecting a child with boyfriend Adrian Newman.
Minogue added fuel to the pregnancy fire when she stepped out in Melbourne earlier this week dressed down in a baggy top with a satchel strap covering her stomach.
Sandilands asked: "[A magazine] said you were pregnant, is that true?"
Minogue wasn't willing to confirm or deny the baby rumours, saying: "Only you would ask that, wouldn't you?
"If I was I wouldn't be able to say and if I'm not, are you saying I'm fat?" she fired back.
Minogue already shares one child, three-year-old son Ethan, with The Daily Edition co-host and Myer ambassador Kris Smith.
She is currently filming X Factor auditions in Sydney with fellow judges Ronan Keating, Natalie Bassingthwaite and Redfoo.

The mind reels. Bemused Everyman Garry Shandling between the sheets with supervixen Sharon Stone? But the unthinkable happens this week on The Larry Sanders Show (HBO), Shandling's outrageously sly send-up of the talk show business, when Stone—portraying herself as a guest—gets along very well with the show's host, played by Shandling. Shooting the bedroom scene, says the comic, 44, "was surreal. You see her do those in movies, and then suddenly it's you. It's an experience I have yet to assimilate into my consciousness." Not that many others weren't willing to try. "There were so many people on our lot wanting to watch that scene, we had to close the set. It was very much like how everyone felt about the comet that crashed into Jupiter. They wanted to see something they'd never seen before: me in bed with someone like Sharon Stone."
After shooting her scenes as a special-education teacher in Untamed Love, a TV movie airing this month on cable's Lifetime network, Cathy Lee Crosby, 44, knew why a staff lounge is a necessity, not a luxury, for teachers. "It [working with children] took every ounce of energy I had," says Crosby of the film, which features real-life kids with learning and behavioral problems. "I think all the anguish I caused my teachers [as a child] finally came back to me in triplicate." While in high school in Los Angeles, Crosby "didn't follow the rules too well," pulling pranks such as chaining the front gate closed and locking the principal in the library. No doubt that principal could relate to Crosby's wish list for her next project: "Something on a beautiful island, with grown-ups!"
It seems those sylphlike model types can really pack a wallop. That's what Rosie O'Donnell learned the hard way on the set of Exit to Eden, a sex fantasy due this fall starring Dana Delany, Dan Akyroyd and former supermodel Iman. While filming a fight scene with O'Donnell, the 5'9" Iman (married since 1992 to rocker David Bowie) says she "totally beat the crap out of her. Rosie looked at my fragile exterior and said, 'Don't worry, I won't hurt you.' " But O'Donnell, 32, hadn't seen Iman, 39, lifting weights every day. "I am very strong," says Iman. "Once they said, 'Action!'it took her and Dan to keep me down. The next day she was all black-and-blue, and there was not a scratch on me."
Henry Thomas was only 10 years old when his angelic turn as Elliot in E.T. pigeonholed him as a child star. But Thomas, now 22, hopes to put a more mature spin on things with his roles in two upcoming movies, Curse of the Starving Class, adapted from a Sam Shepard play, and Legends of the Fall, with Anthony Hopkins. "People still recognize me, but now instead of a bull's-eye right off the bat they say, 'You look so familiar; did you go to this school, or date my little sister?' " In fact, Thomas stayed in Texas and attended Blinn Junior College, where he studied philosophy and history and came upon a simple truth: You can't stay 10 forever. "Time," he says, "is going to break me out of that mold anyway."

Charlie Hunnam goes from motorbikes to monsters in Guillermo del Toro's 'Pacific Rim'
Charlie Hunnam is finally getting his shot at the big time. The 31-year-old actor is best known to most Americans for his role on FX's acclaimed series "Sons of Anarchy," but he's tried to break into the movie business ever since he first got noticed in the original British incarnation of "Queer as Folk." From "Nicholas Nickleby" to "Green Street Hooligans," the silver screen hasn't been kind to Hunnam, but now he'll have Guillermo del Toro's talent to guide him in the new Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.' tentpole "Pacific Rim."
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the monster movie will find aliens attacking the coastal cities of the Pacific Ocean. The world decides the best way to combat these "monsters" is to develop giant robots - possibly piloted by men and women - to destroy them. Humman is rumored to be playing one of those pilots.
Hunnam will be seen next alongside Liv Tyler and Patrick Wilson in the indie "The Ledge" which premiered to scathing reviews at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.
The project has ramped up quickly because del Toro's previous project, "At the Mountains of Madness," was put into turnaround. Shooting on "Rim" is expected to begin this fall.

Life Without Open Source?
,----[ Quote ]
| It's ironic that the effects of open source software on our economy are
| largely unmeasured and may be unmeasurable, but suffice to say the effects
| are enormous. Life without open source software would not only be quite a bit

| Like any new paradigm Cloud computing represents a shift. In this case, it is
| best described by the addition of a new layer we could call a Cloud
| Operating System.
| At its core an operating system is really a task/process manager, a memory
| manager and an I/O manager. Similarly, a Cloud Operating System (COS) defines
| how are managed tasks/applications, how memory/storage is organized and the
| mechanisms by which massive information flow is handled. COS is a network
| operating system running atop of a cloud that is, an hyper network of
| computers.

The hidden world of Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| There are many great FOSS projects that utilise old PC hardware and give it a
| new lease of life. The best is desktop computing with various Linux
| distribution flavours like Mint, PCLinux, Ubuntu and countless others. In
| fact it is my considered belief that the best hardware to run Linux on is
| infact (almost) any machine that is at least 12 months old. It is possible,
| of course, to select components based on the degree (and maturity) of the
| specific support under Linux but this has two major drawbacks. Â* Â* Â*
| [...]
| Not only do such projects look to modify embedded Linux devices, but some
| great projects have sprung up to utilise old PCs every household seems to Â*
| accumulate in order to fulfil a number of key uses. For example,
| comprehensive firewall distributions like IPCop or Smoothwall or NAS
| distributions like FreeNAS (although this is based on BSD.) These are not
| dirty hacked operating systems either but very mature, streamlined, low
| memory footprint distributions which run headlessly. Being totally
| administered through a web browser makes these distributions feel extremely
| professional and polished (even if the archaic hardware they are running on
| doesnât) this being coupled by the extraordinary amount of options present
| really makes these projects an extraordinary example of the flexibility of
| Linux/BSD. Â* Â* Â* Â* Â*
Do we need to protect open source from the cloud?
,----[ Quote ]
| Some view this as a simple loophole to be plugged. The GPL was originally
| written very much within the context of Unix programmatic and operating
| system interfaces. Therefore, the reasoning goes, the only reason the GPL
| didn't encompass access via Web services is that there were no Web
| services--at least in anything like their current form--when the GPL was
| created. That the new GPLv3 specifically doesn't address this "loophole"
| either was more a matter of practicality than principle by this view.
| And, in fact, one approach to eliminating this loophole is a straightforward
| enough approach. The Affero GPL is a straightforward extension to the GPLv3
| license that essentially expands the definition of distribution to encompass
| the delivery of services over the network.
Linux everywhere
,----[ Quote ]
| Take yesterday as a case in point. Â*I checked the order status of my Elonex
| One, and sent an email to see if my order for the One can be upgraded to the
| One+ (bluetooth, and bigger internal memory). Â*I then caught the train to the
| Queen Elizabeth hospital, watching the in-train tv which is powered by some
| Linux flavour (given the error message I saw a few weeks back). Â*Visiting my
| friend Simon at the QE, heâs spotted that the tv/phone/internet screens that
| each patient has are powered by Linux. Â*This is of course when heâs not
| tapping away on his Asus EEE, and hopefully writing the next Da Vinci Code
| (only better). Â* Â* Â* Â*
Linux is truly everywhere
,----[ Quote ]
| I spent a long time smiling about the Linux bootup screen that I had just
| seen. To begin with, it reminded me that Linux, and other open-source
| products, are now everywhere. Linux is no longer for the uber-geeks. It's not
| just for system administrators and programmers, either. Linux is now at the
| core of mainstream appliances, there even when you don't think that a
| computer or operating system might be involved. Â* Â*
| [...]
| Finally, Moore's Law and the general trend toward cheaper and faster hardware
| means that Linux now fits into even more places than it did before. We
| normally think of Linux as an operating system for servers, or even for
| desktop computers. But we can expect Linux to be at the heart of a growing
| number of appliances, from video-on-demand devices to digital video recorders
| (e.g., TiVo), to cellphones (e.g., Android and OpenMoko). The Linux-powered
| refrigerator, with a built-in bar-code scanner that can tell you how long ago
| you bought milk, isn't far behind. Â* Â* Â*
What CANâT Linux do?
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. The story mentioned above. A man installs Linux on sixteen Playstation 3s
| (with zero hardware modifications), clusters them together, and creates a
| system to simulate black holes. Â*
| 2. Installing Linux on a Mac. I was just reading the most recent Wired
| magazine that has a good story on how Apple has created a very closed system
| where only Apple software plays on Apple hardware. Hello Yellow Dog Linux! I
| have run Linux on an iBook - it was sweet. Â*
| 3. Routers. We all know that Linux works well on routers. OpenWRT installs
| well on many Linksys routers.
| [...]
| 11. Airplane black boxes. Montavista uses a Carrier Grade Linux to power
| in-flight recorders.
| 12. Brain surgery. Yep. This Linux-powered robot helps in brain surgery.
SaaS, Open Source and the Migration of Burden
,----[ Quote ]
| Just the week before I had a reporter ask me how Linux is going to deal with
| the threat of cloud computing. The threat? I told her that virtually all of
| the major cloud computing initiatives (except Microsoftâs) are built on
| Linux. (There is a potential displacement there for Linux distribution
| vendors but thatâs another topic.) Linux as a platform is the enabling
| backbone of software as a service and cloud computing.

Top secret: Microsoft's $6 billion open source play
,----[ Quote ]
| This month's announcement by Microsoft to acquire digital marketing
| services firm aQuantive has revealed little on how the companies
| will integrate their IT, but inside information indicates the deal
| may be Redmond's largest commitment to free software.
| [...]
| Whether the businesses are complementary or not, Microsoft's integration
| work will no doubt involve a lot of open source software used by aQuantive.
| Information available from Atlas' Web site indicates the Internet software
| company employs extensive use of open source software including Linux,
| Apache, MySQL, and Solaris.
| Software engineers at Atlas' Raleigh office do client/server development in
| C and C++, software maintenance and "scripting", and developing and
| maintaining custom reporting capabilities.
Thoughts on JavaOne 2008 (mostly good, but lots of confusing messages from Sun)
,----[ Quote ]
| Java is still the language of choice in the enterprise. Even with the rise of
| LAMP Java remains important and makes up huge swaths of the IT landscape in
| major enterprises--at least those who are not .NET. Even open source Java
| applications on Windows are popular.
| [...]
| There are also a number of Sun software products that ARE BUILT ON OPEN
| SOURCE, but NOT OPEN SOURCE. One example of this is JCAPs, which is the sad
| remnant of the $387m SeeBeyond acquisition. Sun ported the JCAPs connectors
| to Open ESB, built the whole thing into NetBeans and closed sourced the
| product. This is not just weird, its also stupid and disingenuous.
It's unofficial: Microsoft bets business on Linux

| What the press statement didn't mention is that Aruba mobility
| controllers run the Linux operating system which Microsoft has
| aggressively targeted as being inferior to Windows as part of
| its "Get the Facts" marketing campaign.
| [...]
| Pandey's appraisal of Aruba's technology is in stark contrast to
| Microsoft's "Get the Facts" rhetoric which places Windows as a more secure,
| and higher-performing choice over Linux.

| If I ask you who is Microsoft's biggest competitor now, who would it be?
