Haiku Review: "Better" by Chrisette Michele
Video Premiere: "A Couple Of Forevers" by Chrisette Michele
Chrisette Michele is ready to take on her next project even though Let Freedom Ring, her previous release, wasn't all that up to par with its predecessor. But, if this is the sound to go by, the full length effort should be tasty.
Our newest contributor: Fawaz!
Hello Lofties, as you know, everyday we grow larger and more fabulous. To keep up with the rising need we need to constantly reinvent ourselves and introduce new angles to our brand. Yes, it's time we introduced our third contributor to LOFT965.com.
Fawaz is a very close friend of ours and he has been posting since September 2012 under his name. If you ever see any posts that feature heavy airliner, big hair and/or wind machines it's probably his post (excluding Mariah's).
His taste varies from bubblegum Europop to more sophisticated wonky pop to K and J pop. Basically, pop. His favorite artists are Girls Aloud, Dragonette, The Saturdays and anything that was on the cover of Smash Hits between 1999 and 2003.
Drop him a tweet and say "hi" at @Fewez.
Also, he's on Instagram @Fewez.

Whether or not it is visible on their uniforms, there is a heavy burden of responsibility that comes with being a captain for a professional athlete.
The very weight of the word "captain" belies the strength a player must possess to be named one in the first place.
He is one of the first people that teammates look to for guidance and assurance. He is often the main player that the news media seek for comment. He is the man coaches and general managers have entrusted to represent their franchise with class and to lead it with conviction.
Captains must also have an eye toward the future, a blueprint for sustained success.
The Cardinals have multiple captains and inside linebacker Paris Lenon understands his role carrying that title this season.
"It's a great sense of accomplishment for your peers to vote for you as a captain and give you that type of recognition," Lenon said. "It's not something I take lightly."
Neither does star wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald, who demonstrated his skillful captaincy prowess during Arizona's season-ending overtime victory over the Seahawks.
In the first half, he had caught just one pass for one yard, but didn't pout or scream for more balls to be thrown his way. He kept his cool, remained focused, and wound up catching eight more passes for 148 yards, including three huge receptions down the stretch to help lead his team to a victory, the Cardinals' seventh in nine games.
"When I was awarded the captain by my teammates, that takes on an added responsibility," Fitzgerald said, "and it makes me understand that I'm playing for everybody. I have to set a good example on and off the field and I take pride in that.
"Things are going to go well and I've got to carry the flag. Things are not going to go well and I've still got to carry the flag. That's how I think of it."
The teams decide how and whom to appoint captains.
Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt has always been of the belief that the players should pick the captains. That's how the coaches he played for did it and that's how the coaches he coached under did it, too.
"Just as much as you may have an opinion, your players have an opinion," he said, "and they're going to be the ones that vote for the true leaders of your football team.
The National Football League, through an advisory council initiative, in 2007 began putting the "C" on team uniforms. Prior to that time, only three teams in league history -- the 1983 Cowboys, the 1992 Chargers and the 1994 Patriots -- designated captains with patches, lettering or insignia, according to Paul Lukas, who writes ESPN's Uni Watch blog.
The patches with the prominent "C" on the upper-right portion of the uniform include a gold star for every year the player has been a captain under the captaincy initiative. Teams that designate season-long captains can have up to six players wear the "C" patch, which is not mandatory.
As another New Year dawns on the sports world and specifically, upon our professional sports teams in the Valley, we asked some of the captains on those franchises about their roles and what their resolutions might be for 2012.
After all, as athletes grow into adulthood, they tend toward accepting more responsibility. The stars learn how to lead and the best become team captains.
We also asked their coaches to relax a little, lighten up and remember when responsibility was something to be avoided at all costs. In that vein, we asked what their most eventful New Year's Eve was in their first 25 years.
With the Diamondbacks enjoying a quiet hibernation following their surprising race to the National League West title, here's a sampling of some of the responses we got from the Cardinals, Suns and Coyotes:
Lenon said he has two sports resolutions he wants to see realized.
"No. 1, I want our team to hit the ground running in 2012 and play the kind of football we're capable of playing," he said. "I want our defense to play the way we did in the second half of the season and have our offense clicking right away so we can hit it full steam and really play well.
"And my other one is, I want to see the Chicago Bulls win a championship. That's my squad. No disrespect to the Phoenix Suns. I'm just a Bulls guy."
Just like the seasoned captain he is, Suns guard Steve Nash gave an insightful response when asked for his 2012 resolution.
"A resolution tells me I'm not approaching life the right way," he said. "I should be having every-day resolutions. I want the team to do well. I want my kids to be growing up and learning all the time. But that's not really a resolution. That's a wish."
Shane Doan, now in his ninth year as captain of the Coyotes, had only his own team in mind when asked for his resolution.
"To have a strong finish to the season in 2012 and to win the Stanley Cup," he said.
Fitzgerald's was similar.
"To just get to playoffs next year," he said. "That's all I really want to do."
Cardinals placekicker Jay Feely, the team's player union representative, had a labor-related resolution for 2012.
"To not talk about a lockout at all in 2012," he said.
As for being a captain, Feely said his selection as one was something he always will cherish.
"Especially when your teammates pick you," he said. "I don't think there's a better honor in sports. When you're in a position as a kicker, to have your teammates respect you and recognize you at a leadership level, that means a tremendous amount to me."

Returning as the conference's most experienced quarterback, David Ash is set for a breakout junior season in 2013. His increased freedom to run the ball will pay the biggest dividends.
You are probably not one of these sick people who plays fantasy college football. But if you were, it would probably be a good idea to take a look at Texas Longhorns quarterback David Ash in an early round.
Ash is already coming off somewhat of a breakout season in which he completed 67 percent of his passes, throwing for just under 2,700 yards with 19 touchdowns.
But he is going to be even better his junior year. He has a big arm, good talent surrounding him and a new scheme that will better exploit his skill set. But get most excited about his rushing abilities, because his athleticism will be on full display when he busts out in 2013.

Data Centre
UMIS' Hosting Centre is a state-of-the-art facility designed to host and manage business-critical I.T. solutions around-the-clock. Our Hosting Centre utilise the latest technologies in order to provide the highest infrastructure reliability and availability in the industry.
UMIS' Hosting Centre has been designed to be entirely redundant and is maintained through a strictly controlled maintenance scheme on all systems. This allows for any infrastructure component to be maintained while its counterpart performs the tasks at hand. The third component is on standby to deal with outages of the active components.
Electrical System
6 independent 11kv three phase electrical supplies are provided from 3 separate national grid substations. Standby Generation is provided at N+1 redundancy via diesel engine driven generators.
On-site fuel is stored to maintain full load operation for all generator sets for continuous running of 24 hours. Back up deliveries are available from diverse supply depots.
Uninterruptible Power Supply System (UPS) is available to provide N+1 redundancy for critical computer supplies. The UPS can support the facility for 15 minutes at full load, whilst switching to alternate supply, or standby generation start-up/synchronisation takes place.
Fire Detection System
The data centre area is fitted with a fully addressable 2 stage fire detection system that monitors the under floor, room and ceiling void space. The detectors are a 50% mix of optical and ionisation and are installed split across 2 separate zonal-loops, to meet BS 5839, 6266, 5445, 5588. The data centre area is fitted with a dry sprinkler fire detection system to meet BS 5306, 3115 and has LFEDA approval. Whilst dry sprinkler is the main fire suppression method used, gas suppression areas may be available on request.
Fire Suppression System
On receipt of 1st stage fire detection the local fire sounders will raise the local alarm, the local air conditioning systems will stop operation and the building will be evacuated. On receipt of 2nd stage fire detection there will be a second notification to the fire panel, the sprinkler system will be activated and the local power supply to the FM suite will be cut off.
Cooling Facilities
* In-room data centre air conditioning is provided at N+1 redundant unit capacity for the declared load. The heat rejection system is 30% glycol and condensed water which utilises dry heat rejection condensers on the rooftop.
* The in-room units provide a full function, closed control air conditioning system, with cooling, humidity and de-humidification control.
* Room design temperature: 22 degrees C, plus or minus 1 degree C.
* Room humidity: 50% rH. Plus 10% or minus 10% rH.
* External Temperature Design: 35 degree C Dry Bulb.
* There is a redundant "A" & "B" pipe work route to the roof top condenser system and N+1 pump system in the building to circulate the glycol condensed water to the data centre in-room air package equipment.
Security Sysytems
* The facility is physically guarded 24/7. Visitors are required to sign in at the gatehouse and again at the main reception building.
* Proximity card access is then provided to the main Data Centre building and to specific Facilities Management Suites. There is an alarm system that will respond to doors left open, or to attempted unauthorised access. A record is kept of door openings and all proximity card transactions.
* There is a CCTV coverage for the perimeter, common areas and facilities management suites.
* The Data Centre site is protected by a perimeter fence, which is fitted with intruder sensing.

Death of a Creative Mind
October 12, 2011
With the recent passing of Steve Jobs, each day that goes by I realize how much our industry has lost. The immediate effect was obvious to the world – we lost a visionary, a thinker, a successful business giant, but for those of us who have been using Apple products for 20 years, we've lost something more.
Using a Mac has always been an privilege to me. At my first job in the industry, I was immediately enamored with the ease at which one was able to take off running. There was no real learning curve, thus eliminating any of those typical insecurities you feel when you are exposed to new technology. Thank you for that Steve. You allowed me to sail into this industry with ease and focus on my work without the frustration of learning to use the hardware.
Apple computers are amazing, not only for their functionality, but their beauty as a machine. The design of everything – from the smooth edges to the complete and total brand consistency – has been incredibly influential. It's almost like he came up with the black, gray and white palette to aid in the graphic designer's creativity, providing a bare surface to start with. No colors, hard edges and overall bad or annoying design and effects to combat our flow of work.
As we all use the products he developed, and benefit from his genius, it's hard to imagine a future where we don't get to anticipate the next best thing Apple will unveil. Hopefully, the imaginative team there will continue on with the legacy they were left by their leader. I will look forward to their continued success.

Weird Double Date With Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes And The Seinfelds
I don't think there's enough wine. Observational humor, Stepford Wife, and nutty Scientology queen? Actually, sitting at the NEXT table might be interesting. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes dined out with Jerry and Jessica Seinfeld in NYC last night at Sfoglia. So f*cking what? Supposedly, Jerry cracked jokes and Katie entertained with her "animated storytelling". Hold the phone, there is nothing animated about that chick lately. Except maybe the control chip in her neck. She probably sat quietly with her head down, and once in awhile Tom would turn to her and say "right, Katie?" and she would nod submissively. Ugh, free yourself woman! Katie did something hot earlier in the day. She went to Mood for fabric! Just like on ProjRun. She picked out some material to make suits for her and Tom. Spacesuits for when the mothership pulls in.

GraphicDimensions Gallery
Three dimensional original designs by artist Paul Chase. Sculptures in metal, glass, wood, concrete and stone – 10″ to 10′
Silk Six-String Abstracts Galley
The Silk Six-String Abstracts offer a new interpretation of the Guitar-or is it just a beautiful design? Each painting is enhanced with splashes of embedded silk for a textural treat…and six lines or are they "strings?"
VineYardGuitars Gallery
VineYardGuitars combine the romance of music and fine wine, the guitar and art. Many of the originals have actual guitars embedded in the panel and then are painted over for a fresh, vibrant 3 dimensional exhibit.
WesternVisions Gallery
WesternVisions come from Paul's experience in the west. Paul lived in Montana for many years and recently became a close friend of the horse…and all the details of riding. Of course-the cowboy and his guitar!
GraphicGuitars Gallery
The GraphicGuitars Gallery contains hundreds of images of the guitar. Each began as an original in various media-Watercolor, color pencil, collage, airbrush, pencil, markers, acrylic, enamel, oil paint and splashes of duct tape, rusty metal, and cut paper.
CopperVisions Gallery
CopperVisions are Paul's newest addition to his creative passion. After an extended stay in the southwest the influence is obvious. By combining copper foil, silk and oil paint the artist floods the canvas with brilliant high intensity color experiences.
WaterColor Gallery
The WaterColor Gallery reveals some the artists roots. Early paintings that are still a favorite. Paul loves to attack the technique of watercolor painting and create places in the world around, and places in the heart.
GraphicVisions Gallery
The definition:
graph-ic (graf'ik), adj. belonging to painting or drawing, picturesque.
visions: (vizh'ens), n. of, or having the nature of , a vision or visions. Seen, or as if seen, in a vision; unreal.
"Visions of what is real, yet simplified into whimsical unreality. Pictures of what could be… yet graphic designs of non-existent colorful lyrics." This unique art has found a place within us that draws our thoughts away from everyday reality into "graphic visions!" The artist's landscape style has developed over the years offering an innovative interpretation of local environment. A combination of reality and fantasy that demands our thoughts, yet offers a vision of a place we have seen—and where we can rest.

Outdoor Post Lighting
Code: artcraft-columbia-ac8083bk-outdoor-post-light
Price: $224.000 available for immediate delivery
Quantity in Basket: none
Outdoor Post Lights Provide Quality Illumination
Outdoor post lights can give your yard a stylized look, while still being practical. Lights that mount on posts or fences have the advantage of casting light further than just your feet. This gives greater visibility than lower lights.
Outdoor Post Lights can be installed at any level, so you are able to set them where you like. Higher than head height will prevent blinding anyone walking along the path, but you can also select a style that diffuses the light.
With dozens of styles to choose from, you can create a classical or modern look for your outdoor space. Materials vary, as well, to give you plenty of options.

Berkeley sites for Lab's second campus in the spotlight
As the Berkeley Lab rolls into town this week to hold three public meetings about a second campus, there has been a lot of speculation about which community will be the best cheerleader. The bar has already been set high: Richmond had drummers and dancers perform at its meeting, Oakland put forward its mayor, and Alameda had a packed house.
But a curious thing happened in each community meeting. Instead of the cities wooing the Lab, the Lab … Continue reading »
UC Berkeley student Ju Hong: Undocumented and unafraid
Ju Hong looked tired. Uncharacteristic stubble peppered his chin and there were shadows under his eyes when we met at a Temescal coffee shop. But then again, he'd had a crazy week. Most Cal students spend the warmer months taking summer courses, doing internships or catching up with hometown friends and family. Hong, an ASUC senator-elect and political science major, spent time in jail.
Police arrested 21-year-old Hong and six other undocumented student activists for blocking a major street at a … Continue reading »

Company of neighbors, good food at local block parties
Last night, hundreds of people stepped out of their homes and joined their neighbors at block parties, community BBQs and potlucks. In Berkeley, the police department issued 52 street closure permits to enable block gatherings.
The casual socializing was all part of National Night Out, an initiative supported by cities and their police and fire departments, to encourage neighborhoods to become closer in an effort to reduce crime.
After reading about National Night Out on Berkeleyside, Michael … Continue reading »

Governor speaks of options regarding BoH departure
Gov. Togiola Tulafono is in discussion with certain businesses for the possibility of forming a company or entity to take over local banking needs when Bank of Hawai'i closes down next year leaving only ANZ Amerika Samoa Bank to serve the territory.
Speaking on his weekend radio program, the governor said he was informed last week by BoH about plans to shut down its two branches. (Togiola returned to the territory last week Monday following meetings in Taiwan)
Additionally, he was told by bank officials that there is no other option for them at this point, as the bank has tried to sell its local operations and assets to a buyer to handle banking services, but that was unsuccessful, and therefore the bank is moving forward with their closing process.
Hobbs Lowson said Nov. 30th in a news release that the bank wants to focus on its core markets in Guam and Hawai'i. He told Samoa News early last week that the bank had sought a buyer for its operations, but was unable to reach an agreement and therefore the bank is moving forward with plans to close the two local branches on Mar. 15, 2013 — but will still consider any new offer.
Togiola said he will continue discussions with certain businesses on whether something can be done to either purchase local BoH operations through an established entity, or set up a company that can handle some type of financial institution services in the territory when BoH leaves.
He stated part of the discussions was the possibility of forming an entity or company that can provide banking services.
While his administration has only a few weeks left in office, the governor said, that shouldn't be an obstacle in finding a solution to this surprising news from BoH.
The governor said he cannot provide any specific details or the names of the businesses involved in these discussions to protect confidentiality issues.
Togiola did say that any result of these discussions and other information will be relayed to the incoming administration of governor-elect Lolo Matalasi Moliga and lt. governor-elect, Lemanu Peleti Mauga for them to pursue, since his administration won't be able do deal with it this year.
It is Togiola's hope that there will be another bank or similar type of financial institution in place prior to BoH's actual departure date.
Responding to Samoa News request for comments, Department of Commerce deputy director Lelei Peau, last week said "we are saddened to see the Bank of Hawaii withdraw from American Samoa. It has been an important part of American Samoa's financial infrastructure for over forty years.
"We appreciate Bank of Hawaii's determination to pursue an orderly transition for the benefit of American Samoa patrons.
"I am sure the American Samoa Government will begin an immediate consideration of options for the future to maintain commercial banking capacity in American Samoa."
Meanwhile, a member of the Lolo/Lemanu transition team — who contacted Samoa News after hearing the governor's radio program dealing with BoH — claimed that the incoming administration plans to send a letter soon to BoH headquarters in Honolulu asking the bank to delay their departure.
The member, who didn't want to be identified by name, said a delay would allow the incoming administration to find another U.S. bank to enter the local market or at least convince BoH to remain here for a much longer time.

A flare-up of an Achilles injury that caused him to withdraw during the final round of a World Golf Championship event last Sunday won't keep Tiger Woods from playing in a two-day exhibition that begins Monday.
Woods said on his website Friday that after hitting balls for the first time since leaving the WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral that he was good to go for the Tavistock Cup on Monday-Tuesday, followed by the Arnold Palmer Invitational Thursday through Sunday.
"Look forward to competing," Woods said.
The Tavistock is a 36-hole, made-for-TV event contested annually in the Orlando area and it is now comprised of teams from four clubs. Woods now represents Albany, a golf course community in the Bahamas. It will be played at Lake Nona Country Club, which also fields a team, along with Isleworth and Queenswoods, a club in the U.K.
Unless he asks for a waiver, Woods would then be expected to play in the Arnold Palmer Invitational pro-am Wednesday, followed by the 72-hole tournament. That would mean playing golf for seven straight days.
Woods has won the Palmer event six times and it will be his last competition prior to the Masters, which begin April 5.
"I'm playing very well," he said on his website. "It's all starting to come together."
Woods missed most of four months last summer due to Achilles and knee injuries suffered at the Masters. He attempted to come back at the Players Championship, where he withdrew after nine holes; he later said playing there was a mistake. Woods ended up missing two major championships.
That is why he said in a statement Sunday and in various interviews conducted Thursday as a part of corporate commitments that he wanted to do the "prudent" thing by not pushing through the Achilles problem, which he said first started bothering him while warming up on the driving range. There was fear that the injury would be serious enough to keep him out of next week's events and jeopardize the Masters, which he has won four times.
"I decided to be smart about it and not risk further injury," he said.

text: Last week the House overwhelmingly passed the Free Flow of Information Act (only 21 dissenting votes), and the Senate is expected to follow suit. On the surface this would appear to be a good thing, akin to the Freedom of Information Act. In fact, it is nothing but creation of special status for career journalists (the act would not apply to bloggers and other non-mainstream reporters who do not make their living as a reporter). It gives these individuals special protection under the law, making them immune from prosecution for divulging sensitive or classified information obtained through an illegal leak, unless it "poses an immediate threat to national security". Under this law Judy Miller could not have been held for failure to reveal her sources, but neither could the Washington Post and NY Times be held accountable for destroying the SWIFT program or placing certain of our European allies at risk by reporting on interrogation centers for suspected terrorists. There is already a reluctance to prosecute reporters for misconduct; this would give them rights not afforded the rest of us. Given past fabrications by the press, it seems a poor idea to give them immunity before the fact, especially in cases involving felonies and breaches of national security. The bill has been introduced in several forms since at least 2005. A minimally biased description of the current bill can be found at: http://www.rcfp.org/news/2007/1016-con-housep.html It has been below most people's radar, and, obviously, the press isn't going to shine a bright light on it. Please, read about the act and let your senators know your feelings, pro or con.

On November 9, 2013 I will be presenting a new lecture on Consciousness, UFOs, and Reality.This is the 5th generation of this lecture first given in Leeds England and inspired by an awakening I had while watching a lecture being given by crop circle authority Colin Andrews in late February 2012. The lecture will take place in Hamilton New Jersey at the NJ UFO Paranormal Conference. Now read the bizarre story of how on key slide on the holographic universe got into the presentation at my Whitehouseufo blog.
Is the President running the country or is he a puppet to a secret government within the government? What does the constitution say about the problem of UFO secrets? Has the American public been disinformed about the President's UFO role? Many interviews, articles, and documentaries have looked at this question. It is one of the key questions there is in ufology "What does the most powerful man in the world know about what might be the most important subject in the world - UFOs?"
This article takes a long hard look at the evidence regarding presidential UFO knowledge as it applies to the many US Presidents that have faced the UFO mystery since Roosevelt.
In light of the latest revelation by the government that they have lied about the existance of Area 51, readers should be aware that the Clinton Library released 460 pages on Area 51 to me under an FOIA request in March 2008
The documents have been posted by the Presidents UFO Website for a number of years
Looking at the following quotes it is evident that the world of UFO secrecy has developed many cracks over the years.
Colonel John Alexander is the author of "UFOs: Myths, Conspiracies, and Realities." Alexander is on the record stating that he talked to the Director or Deputy of all the lettered intelligence agencies and that none of them had any knowledge of a government interest in UFOs or a cover-up of information. However, speaking on MJ-12, the long rumored control group that oversees UFO secrecy, research, and policy Alexander said something much different,
I had someone whisper to me that it had existed. I didn't think it had existed at all, but when I looked into it and asked if the names were correct, and they said yes and that should tell me what I need to know to figure it out.
President Ronald Reagan speaks after the screening at the White House of the movie ET-The Extraterrestrial on June 27, 1982,
'I wanted to thank you (Spielberg) for bringing E.T. to the White House. We really enjoyed your movie, and there are a number of people in this room who know that everything on that screen is absolutely true.'
The CIA after 30+ years of denials now confirms the existence of Area-51 where it has long been rumored that flying saucers were back-engineered (even though it was actually S4 - 15 miles south west). From a just declassified CIA document,
"AEC chairman Adm. Lewis Strauss readily agreed and President Eisenhower also approved the addition of this strip of wasteland, known by its map designation as Area 51, to the Nevada Test site,"
Colonel John Alexander confirms MJ-12 is real and now the CIA admits Area-51 existed after denying it for years. No big deal. The government was purposefully leaking the existence of the base in 1989 already. I told the story of how and why they did it in UFOs, Area-51, and Government Informants.
To listen go to
In my book "UFOs, Area 51, and Government Informants" I spent a lot of time looking at the evidence that backed the idea of an inside control group known as MJ-12. The idea of this MJ-12 group started to appear in the early 1980s, through a researcher known as Bill Moore. Moore had written a book known as the Roswell Incident which sold many copies and was the forerunner of the modern obsession with the Roswell crash.
Days after Moore released the book he was contacted by US intelligence which started to tell him the story of MJ-12, the super-secret group that had been established by President Harry Truman to deal with the extraterrestrial presence on earth. Moore was fed information by both USAF master sergeant Richard Doty and a second person attached to the CIA that Bill Moore gave the code name Falcon. Later 10 more intelligence sources would come forward to provide information to Moore. It is believed that some of these may actually have been ex-CIA directors.
This is one of the most important books ever written on the clandestine world of the UFO cover-up. Grant Cameron and Scott Crain do more than demonstrate the reality of an extraterrestrial presence on Earth. Through tenacious investigation and impeccable research, they shine a light into the CIA, NSA, Air Force, Navy, and other inside groups that have managed this secret for decades.
And their conclusion is inescapable and shocking: this is a secret that the insiders themselves struggle to understand and contain.

Although production had not started on the show yet, several of the cast were in town preparing for the season prior to their SDCC engagement. I caught up to Freddie Highmore (Norman Bates), Nestor Carbonell (Sherriff Alex Romero) & Emmy nominated Vera Farmiga (Norma Bates) on their way out of town. They were all pleasant signers & also seemed incredibly excited to see each other there. Clearly they hadnt crossed paths much, if at all since being in town. Which wasnt too surprising considering they wouldn't even start filming for another week or more.
On the return, I caught up to those 3 again, along with Max Theriot (Dylan Massett) & Olivia Cooke (Emma Decody). While Vera seemed a little less receptive than when she was leaving town, the rest of the cast were again terrific with anyone that asked them for photos or autographs.
Since this show doesnt film in Vancouver (it films in Aldergrove, about hour outside the city) this was my 1st chance to meet any of this cast.
The thing I found most disturbing from them was, how the majority of the cast were being driven around by a driver who is hated by the B.C. Film industry. Whichever company that hired this person to drive people from an industry shes blacklisted in really should have done their homework a bit better. Of course, she probably lied to them on her resume, doubt she added that she was fired from being a transport driver on sets because she lied on her application for that job.
The 2nd season of Bates Motel will start airing sometime in 2013 on A&E.

This year, in addition to identifying five Trash Hot Spots, Save The Bay is also highlighting the five cities where the Hot Spots are located, as they are tackling the trash problem in the Bay by considering plastic bags and Styrofoam bans. Follow these links to learn more about plastic bag and Styrofoam litter and how they threaten Bay wildlife, habitats, and recreation areas.
- Oakland is an active participant in the countywide effort to ban bags, being led by Stopwaste.
- Richmond is prepared to pass a plastic bag ordinance and may do so in collaboration with a regional effort being led by regional solid waste agency Recyclemore. Richmond also passed an ordinance banning the use of polystyrene food ware in August 2010.
- San Carlos is considering a ban on both bags and Styrofoam. San Mateo County is encouraging all cities in the county to adopt their existing Styrofoam ban by offering to conduct outreach and enforcement activities for cities that do so.
- San Francisco was the first city in the US to adopt a ban on plastic bags in April 2007, which spurred cities around the world to do the same. The city is now considering amendments to their ban that would establish durability standards and a minimum charge for reusable bags.
- In December 2010, San Jose passed the strongest single-use bag ordinance in the country. The city is keeping this momentum alive by considering options for a Styrofoam food ware ordinance.

Abortion times a-changin'
Fr. Rick Heilman | Jun 02, 2012 | Comments 1
By Barbara Curtis:
In 1973, in my feminist folly, I did a victory dance when nine black-robed men somehow found a constitutional "right to privacy" and made abortion the law of the land. In 1975, as a single mother, I aborted my third child, explaining to my 8-year-old daughter Samantha Sunshine, as we walked up Van Ness Street in San Francisco to the Women's Health Collective, how proud we should be of our feminist heritage and freedom.
I never dreamed that the traditionalists were right when they warned us of a "slippery slope," that in the next 38 years "reproductive choice" would claim more than 50 million lives, or that I would live to see abortion become a marriage of Big Business and Secular Sacrament.
Time changes things. For me it's the same dance to a different tune on hearing that a recent Gallup poll finds support for abortion at an all-time low.
I've been anticipating this moment for a long time. Not until I knew God loved me and had a purpose for my life could I see that an unborn baby's life had meaning, too. In 1987 I was a mother of five when my husband, Tripp, and I became Christians. Since then we've had seven more children through birth and adoption. While I will always grieve the child I murdered, I rejoice each day that God taught me to be pro-life.
This is a battle we will continue to win for several reasons:
- Medical advances: We now know much more about prenatal development, while ultrasound machines let nearly every mother see her child nestled in the womb. In utero surgeries have enabled many previously hopeless babies to thrive until birth, raising the question, why can the mother decide whose life is worth saving and whose she can throw away?
- Conservative vs. liberal reproductive tendencies: Pro-lifers tend to have more children—in many cases, a lot more—than pro-abortionists and then pass their values on to future generations. Our numbers are growing all the time.
- Young people: With a quarter of their cohort missing, many youths have realized their rights were not protected before they were born. For some sensitive souls, the idea that their mothers could have killed them will be a chilling realization and a call to decide for themselves if human life has intrinsic worth. The image of pro-lifers as angry, old, white men is belied by the annual March for Life in Washington, D.C., which radiates youth, joy, and vitality.
- Guerrilla journalism: At just 24, Lila Rose has become the Joan of Arc of pro-life youth, putting actions to her words by founding Live Action—"a new media movement for life"—and engaging the enemy with video stings. She has entered abortion clinics posing an underage girl pregnant by an older man, a sex trafficker, or a victim of sex trafficking to videotape Planned Parenthood's willingness to cover-up illegal activity that victimizes women. (See La Shawn Barber's "Selective abortion at Planned Parenthood?" Live Action has released another video today on sex-selective abortion involving Planned Parenthood in New York.)
- Evolving awareness: Just as proponents of slavery characterized blacks as not fully human, today pro-abortionists claim unborn babies—"fetuses"—are not fully human. The argument that humanity is conferred by the will of the mother is an untenable position that will one day be corrected and reviled, just as slavery was.
Although our president believes in no limits to abortion and counts the nation's largest abortion provider among his very best friends, Gallup found that only 20 percent of Americans share President Obama and Planned Parenthood's view.
Liberals need to face the fact that they are now the status quo and the oppressors. But as Bob Dylan once sang to a generation of culture-changers, "The times, they are a-changin'."

Great post. It takes a lot of humility to cast off old skin and put on new. It takes a lot of courage to share so intimately about our old skin. Barbara has found the secret to both of those virtues….GOD'S GRACE.

Food Pairings,Wine Tasting And Dining Deals
Wednesday - August 25, 2010
The night of the multi-course wine dinner might be drawing to a close. Not that wine will ever go out of fashion, but there are new trends with food and wine pairings taking place the world over.
Honolulu is no exception. Check out some of the latest signature drinks at local restaurants and you might be surprised how well they pair with food. With an explosion of interest in cocktails and food, and the well-deserved recognition of a group of highly talented local bartenders, there's as much ado about applewood-smoked martinis and orange-spiced vanilla bean rums as there is about the 2007 Pinot Noirs from California.
Hot on the foodie to-do list is Munch, a monthly cocktail pairing hosted at trendy Apartment 3, home of the gourmet comfort food of chef Robert McGee and the gorgeous cocktails of Kyle Reutner. The monthly Munch features a cocktail theme with three-course pairings. Expect sellouts and check the website apartmentthree.com for reservation details ...
Speaking of the 2007 Pinots, there's a vertical tasting of some of the most-talked-about examples of this vintage taking place this Saturday at Hawaii Prince Hotel.
The exclusive tasting begins at 4:30 p.m. and will feature 12 wineries, including Drew, Au Bon Climat and Brewer Clifton. It's a benefit for Lupus Foundation of Hawaii and traditionally features some outstanding wines. Don't miss it if you want to learn why wine experts the world over are declaring 2007 a banner year. Chefs at the graze-and-guzzle party include Hiroshi Fukui, D.K. Kodama, Keith Endo, Ron De Guzman, and Tushar and Anna Dubey of Hokulani Bake Shop. Nothing goes better with a world-class cupcake than a world-class glass of Pinot Noir. Details at Lupushawaii.org ...
While exclusive dinners and cutting-edge cuisine are fun, sometimes it's just as exciting to discover the best deal in town. Eating at a fine-dining restaurant and enjoying a reduced-price check certainly can increase an already pleasurable experience. At Wolfgang's Steakhouse this month, there's a great lunchtime offer that showcases the best of the restaurant, along with a selection of specially priced lunch deals.
"There was an incredible response to our lunch special when we featured our hamburger," says Wolfgang's GM Bill Nickerson, "so we wanted to offer more specials. It's a great way for people to enjoy a fine-dining restaurant at a fraction of the price."
Nickerson believes that Wolfgang's should showcase what it does best, so you'll find a chopped salad, fresh mahimahi and fries on the new menu alongside the famous Wolf burger. The lunchtime entrees come with fries and onion rings and cost just $12.95.
Remember Wolfgang's next time you're looking for somewhere special to meet for lunch. I'm sure you'll be impressed with both the service and your check.
Happy eating!

UFC welterweight contender Carlos Condit was only 21 when he competed in the 2006 Rumble on the Rock Tournament. In the opening bout of the tournament, he took on top-five ranked fighter Renato Verissimo. The unranked "Natural Born Killer" knocked him out in just 17 seconds.
His next bout would be against the former UFC welterweight title challenger, Frank Trigg, in the semifinals.
Trigg had been coming off of his two losses to Matt Hughes and Georges St-Pierre but he did have a win over Ronald Jhun in the first stage of the tournament and was still ranked among the best welterweights.
It didn't take long for Trigg to get Condit to the ground, but it ended up being worse for him as Condit snatched up a triangle-armbar one minute into the bout, forcing Trigg to tap.
Condit would go on to fight Jake Shields in the finals, but came up short and lost a unanimous decision. It was one of the few times Condit has been to a decision.
Of his 31 bouts, he has only been the distance three times. He has 12 knockout victories and 13 submission victories on his record.
"NBK" will be in action this weekend and taking on the undefeated Korean fighter Dong Hyun Kim (14-0-1) at UFC 132.

Substitutions: In (1) let . In (2) let u= 1+ 2sin(x).
f(x) = 4x/(1+x^2) = 4x(1+x^2)^-1
We're now searching for the primitive function F(x), this is found to beF(x) = 2*ln(1+x^2)+C
You can try to take the derivative of F(x) and see that it holds. When you write a function and sees ^-1, be aware of the ln(x) function since y = ln(x) => y' = 1/x = x^-1.
The same holds for 2).
Letf(x) = cos(x)/(1+2sin(x)) = cos(x)(1+2sin(x))^-1
You can now find
F(x) = ln(1+2sin(x))/2+C
Another tip is to start with the ln function, and then se what the derivative is by using the chainrule, then you for example know that in this case you should divide by 2 so it cancel when taking the derivative of the function F(x). But be aware! This only holds when we're talking about constants, since if we would use this strategy on a function, we would have to apply the product rule when calculating the derivative and that would almost surely lead to wrong function.

Staten Island, NY – The Wagner College men's lacrosse team jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead but the Seahawks were unable to sustain the momentum as Sacred Heart came back to register a 10-5 victory.
With the loss, the Seahawks fall to 0-6 on the season while the Pioneers improve to 2-5.
Senior midfielder Pete Blackmer (Marcellus, NY/Marcellus) scored the first goal of the game with 9:30 left in the first quarter. At the 6:20 mark of the first quarter, sophomore attackman Mike Scheerer (West Chester, PA/Bishop Shanahan) put the Seahawks on top 2-0. The Pioneers then rattled off three straight goals to make it a 3-2 game en route taking a 6-3 halftime lead.
With the Seahawks trailing 9-3 after the third quarter, Wagner drew to within 9-4 on a blast from freshman midfielder Colin O'Rourke (Worcester, MA/St. John's Shrewsbury) off a pretty feed from fellow freshman attackman Cody Isdaner (Gladwyne, PA/Episcopal Academy). Scheerer then notched his second goal of the game with 7:20 left to play to make it a 9-5 game. That is as close as the Seahawks would get, however, as SHU's Chris Casey scored the final tally of the game with 1:25 left to fashion the final score of 10-5.
Casey, Jon Flood and Bryan Badolato scored two goals apiece to lead the Sacred Heart cause while goalie Tom Trgo had 11 saves while Wagner's senior goalie Michael Gutkin (Freehold, NJ/Freehold Township) came up with seven saves.
Sacred Heart out-shot Wagner 34-28 and held a slim 25-22 edge in ground balls. The Pioneers also won 11-of-19 faceoffs. The man-down defensive units for each team were stellar as Sacred Heart was just 1-of-7 on extra man opportunities while Wagner was 1-of-3 on EMOs.
Wagner is next in action on Saturday, March 27 when the Seahawks begin MAAC play by hosting Mount St. Mary's in a 1:00 pm faceoff.

The latest issue of the Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics reviews the effects of autologous stem cell therapy for patients with liver disease.
As morbidity and mortality from liver disease continues to rise, new strategies are necessary.
Liver transplantation is not only an expensive resource committing the patient to lifelong immunosuppression but also suitable donor organs are in short supply.
Against this background, autologous stem cell therapy has emerged as a potential treatment option.
Dr Moore and colleagues from the United Kingdom evaluated if it is possible to make a judgement on the safety, feasibility and effect of autologous stem cell therapy for patients with liver disease.
The research team searched MEDLINE and EMBASE up until 2013 to identify studies where autologous stem cell therapy was administered to patients with liver disease.
The team noted that of 1668 studies identified, 33 were eligible for inclusion evaluating a median sample size of 10 patients for a median follow-up of 6 months.
Although there was marked heterogeneity between studies with regards to type, dose and route of delivery of stem cell, the treatment was shown to be safe and feasible largely when a peripheral route of administration was used.
Of the studies which also looked at biochemical outcome, statistically significant improvement in liver function tests was seen in 16 studies post-treatment.
Dr Moore's team concludes, "Although autologous stem cell therapy is a much needed possibility in the treatment of liver disease, further robust clinical trials and collaborative protocols are required."

Samplings of recent calls to Portales law enforcement, according to police reports:
• At 6:19 a.m., an officer observed a blue van parked at a residence with the passenger side window broken out. When the officer made contact with the owner, the man told him the window had not been broken when he last saw it at 6 p.m. the previous evening. The officer could not find the object that hit the window.
• At 1:23 p.m., an officer responded to a convenience store in reference to a gas drive off. The store manager told the officer that a dark blue Chevrolet Impala pulled up to one of the gas pumps and dispensed $22.40 worth of gas, then drove off. The vehicle traveled east on U.S. 70. No license plate number or facial features were able to be seen from the store video but the vehicle had a broken out rear window. The case is inactive.
• At 2:32 a.m., officers were dispatched to West Fifth Street in reference to someone trying to gain access to an apartment. The officers observed that two males were walking down the street. One was identified as a man with three warrants for his arrest. He was arrested and the other man was allowed to leave.
Upon arriving at the residence, a woman told officers her front door had been kicked in.
Officers dusted two partial shoe prints on the front door to compare to the shoes of the individual who was arrested earlier for comparison. The woman said nothing was taken.
• At 6:55 p.m., an officer was dispatched to East Spruce Street in reference to shoplifting. A male subject, who had warrants out for his arrest in Curry County, had tried to leave the store with four bulbs and a bottle of butane, which totaled $34.89.
The officer escorted the man to the patrol car, where he was cited a misdemeanor for shoplifting. A New Mexico state police officer placed the man under arrest for his warrants and escorted him to the Curry County Detention Center. The items were returned to the store.

How do you build a company that continually creates value, attracts smart people, and stands out for being exceptional?
If you're TED-Ed — the educational arm of TED that produces Lessons Worth Sharing — you do this by giving your audience a key role in your content, from concept, to production, to distribution (to learn how they're doing this, join their webcast April 3rd!).
It works like this: TED invites all their "TEDsters," — teachers, students, parents, life-long learners, and animators who bring TED-Ed lessons to life — to their community. There they collaborate around ideas for lessons. Teachers connect with animators to bring awesome, engaging lessons to life. Animators suggest lessons they'd like to work on, collaborate with subject matter experts to flesh out the story line, and sync up with teachers and other learners to distribute the content.
The co-creation and collaboration this enables is having a huge impact on TED-Ed, the TEDsters, and their joint ability to spread their lessons out into the world. One video, which resulted from the collaboration described above, received 1.1 Million views in the first three days (more about that story here)! That is the power of co-creation and collaboration — better, more interesting content produced with the help of an audience that's already bought-in to the concept and is excited to share the outcome!
To learn more about how TED-Ed has built a tightly knit community that helps them innovate for the best content around, join the webcast with Jordan Reeves, TED-Ed Community Manager, on April 3rd at 10 am PT/ 1pm ET.

fall fishing
I've read that fishing is better in the fall and spring. When does the fishing start to get better,can anyone be more specific than fall. When will the weather get cool enough to improve fishing but not so cool as you must have waders to wade,or is there such a time? What will the weather/fishing be like the first and second week in oct? When will you have to start wearing a jacket and /or waders?
Re: fall fishing
I think the majority of the input I have read on this board would point to the spring as being the best fishing season all around....the bug debutante....the fall season is a second spurt to stock up for the winter months more or less....personally I like the first two or three weeks in October....cool weather and the leafers are not out in force....during the week the campgrounds are quiet and not that many fishermen.....I have been camping and fishing this time frame for 30 years and don't own a pair of waders....we usually fish in shorts or nylon fishing pants....trout are still hitting dries and the only draw back is an occasional lack of water....gets a little hard on the knees....try it, you'll like it.
Re: fall fishing
Next to the "yellow flies" hatch in Early June this is actually my favorite time. I usually bump into Rog 1 up above Elkmont about that time, I'll be a little later this year. I carry set of stocking foot hip books in my day pack. They may or may not get used. *Weather can vary so much. I try to stay out of the water as much as possible due to low water. (I worked around a large boulder last fall and spooked a 20+ brown digging a redd. I think I catch more Browns in the fall than any other time. I still throw a lot of beetles , a Renegade (with fat peacock body)and a large tan elk hair caddis- a size 8 or 10 *:o. There is a large caddis coming off periodically during that time that drives the fish nuts.. *This time of the year is usually "feast or famine" for me. Water levels and the water temperature are the two big factors.
Somehow I got talked into a" Look at the Leaves" trip to New England by the wife for early October. ;D I moved it up to catch the last week of fishing season in Baxter Park for Brookies and West Branch of Penobscot for Landlocks. The boys, in Maine, have to "stop fishing" most places Oct.1st. :( But I'll be in the park 3rd or 4th week of October.

Re: fall fishing
Thanks, is there any advantage to hiking into camp? will you be able to get to waters not so heavly fished? When they close these areas do to bear activity how long do they stay closed?(asking about 24,&18 in particular) Is it safe to camp right after they reopen or are the first people to camp just test pigs to see if it's safe? If you camp in the camp grounds where can you shower?
Re: fall fishing
I have a propane shower from Bass Pro, that I carry in my car with my tent. I use it at Elkmont or Cades Cove. It has a battery powered pump, propane canister heating coil. You can heat water out of a stream/ lake very quickly. I bought it for N. F. campgrounds out west, cost about $100 but have used it years. Too big to back pack though.
I don't think backpacking in is that much of an advantage in the Park, if your goal is only to just fish. I enjoy doing both- backcountry camping and fishing. If I want to just fish, I found I travel faster with just my fishing gear.
I think there is a difference between camping in a bear closed area and fishing in one. A bear might be in a high country campground might be at Elkmont the next night. If there is a problem bear in an area I want to fish, I make sure NOT to have any food around and run my Day pack, etc up between some trees. I ,also, carry a canister of bear spray on my belt. I have NEVER FELT THREATENED THAT I have had to take it out, even with a bear is present. The park is saturated with bears and they travel long distances. 95% of the time NO FOOD- NO PROBLEM.
My son guides hikers in the Adirondacks. In July, his group camped near a trail shelter, with a fenced in front, that was already filled. That night they heard screams, yelling etc. as a bear came through the door of the shelter to get at the food the other group failed to run up lines. He and his groups had hiked for 8 weeks in that same area and only saw glimpses of two bears while following bear- food rules.
