Sequoia Healthcare District brochure coming
Original post made by Jack Hickey, Woodside: Emerald Hills, on Oct 19, 2012
District CEO, Lee Michelson is responsible for the preparation of the brochure which he claims is not subject to review or approval by the Board of Directors. I have advised him of my concerns, and asked that he delay the mailing. He is currently declining my advice.
I urge you to shine a light on this activity. You can see the brochure at:

The Supreme Court has identified two categories of communication as being unambiguously campaign related. First, "express advocacy," defined as a communication that uses specific election-related words. Second, "the functional equivalent of express advocacy," defined as an "electioneering communication" that "is susceptible of no reasonable interpretation other than as an appeal to vote for or against a specific candidate." (Leake, 525 F.3d at 282-83)
In my opinion, the Sequoia Healthcare District "Report to the Community" is an "electioneering communication", paid for with public funds.

The Sequoia Healthcare District claims a Total Community Support of $10.6 million for FY 2012-2013. That figure assumes that the $1,000,000 spent on Nursing Education will result in 100% of the graduate nurses working in the District. That is no where close to reality. See: Web Link A 50% figure would be an overestimate. Of more than 300 graduate nurses, only 64 are currently employed at Sequoia Hospital. That's $500,000+ not going to support the Community, and >$4,000,000 lost in the first 8 years of the program

Despite my request on October 17, 2012 to Sequoia Healthcare District CEO, Lee Michelson, to " Please postpone printing and mailing committments until this has been reviewed by all Directors. A one week delay should suffice.", this 4 page 11" x 17" full color brochure was mailed out. A friend of mine received it in today's mail.
This was Lee's response to my initial request:
From: Lee Michelson <email@example.com>
Subject: RE: FW: Annual Report
To: "'Jack Hickey'" "'Kim Griffin'"
Date: Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 5:09 PM
The sending of the annual report to the Board in advance is a courtesy not for your approval. Neither the Board president or the majority of the board has asked for
approval so as I understand the situation this is a staff responsibility. There will not be a delay.

The Sequoia Healthcare District's pre-election "Report to the Community" is the largest piece of puffery I have ever received. It contains the equivalent of 8 letter size pages. One half of a letter sized page is devoted to FINANCIALS. A copy of the budget would have fit on 1 letter size page, but the District chose not to include it.
When I suggested that the report was intended to influence the election, and asked for a delay in the mailing on October 17, 2012, District CEO, Lee Michelson, in an e-mail to Board President, Kim Griffin and myself, had this to say about the mailing:
"The sending of the annual report to the Board in advance is a courtesy not for your approval. Neither the Board president or the majority of the board has asked for approval so as I understand the situation this is a staff responsibility. There will not be a delay.
In another e-mail Lee Said, "...the annual report always gets mailed out this time of year even in non –election years ...".
That's not true.
In a November 1, 2011 memo to the Board of Directors, Lee said "Enclosed you will find our new annual report that will be mailed next week..."
This years report was received in mailboxes on October 25, 2012, 13 days BEFORE the election! Kim Griffin had the authority to delay the mailing, but failed to do so!

Item from minutes of Sequoia Healthcare District Dec. 5, 2012 meeting:
5.h. Annual Report
Director Faro suggested that a discussion of the recent Annual Report to the Community would clear up statements made about the production and timing of the mailing of the report. He added that it would be helpful for directors to see a preliminary draft before report is finalized.
Director Hickey had asked to see all invoices related to the production of the report and was given MTK invoices.
Mr. Michelson provided a memo regarding the development of the annual report reminding the Board that it is his responsibility to manage the day-to-day operation of the District and that the Annual Report is a management responsibility and not a governance/policy issue.
NOTE not part of the minutes: the MTK invoices did not identify the Printing and Mailing company used. And, as of Dec. 31, 2013, Don Shoecraft (aka MTK)is no longer under contract with the District!
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Day two started off with a functional training session, here GU13 Rush Select head coach, Russell Finch and his staff painted a picture for players of how to play out of the back and maintain possession of the ball when playing out of their defensive half. Conditions were put in place to encourage players to connect passes, move off the ball and most importantly force players to communicate with one another since most were complete strangers at this point of the camp. Keepers were not allowed to punt, promoting tougher decision making, along with the other players now having to open up and be options for them.
"For me it's too easy for players to turn their backs on the keeper, push up the field and hope to win the punt. I want players to enjoy the ball in all areas of the field, including the keepers. I believe taking away the punt forces players to solve the problems that are created when required to play to feet out of their own 18 yard box." - Russell Finch, GU13 Rush Select Head Coach
After the session teams were announced for games against the Georgia 98 and 99 ODP teams, many players in this group of elite local players competed on U14 and U15 ECNL teams.
Game 1 was against the toughest age group, the 98's. The game was tied 0-0 until the last 10 minutes when some creative, dynamic combination play and a little more athleticism gave the ODP girls 4 quick goals.
Game 2 was a much more competitive game against the 99's where some of the girls were the same age, but still the majority were true U14's. The game ended 1-0, another late goal, but certainly a closer game both in possession and the score line.
The final game was under the lights against the second group of 99's. Although it drew a big crowd and the Rush girls shared the possession, it was ultimately defined by missed chances accompanied with errors in the midfield and at the back which saw another 4 quick goals for the decisive Georgia girls.
The coaches addressed a few items they took from the games and then the girls headed to the warmth of the players lounge for their first team dinner.

[Article]-Video: The 15-Minute Network Pen Test Part 2
Permanent link: [Article]-Video: The 15-Minute Network Pen Test Part 2
There are numerous tools used in the Penetration Testing (pen testing) process, and there are plenty of books that go into how to use the individual tools. There are very few resources that discuss how the tools are used and how to approach the process. Parts 1 and 2 encompass the basic outline of what was presented at a talk given to the Duke University ACM Chapter with some minor changes.
In Part 1, we took the viewer through the initial network recon stage through actual exploitation using Metasploit. Initially the network is scanned through Nmap, and then continued with Nessus. We importing the Nessus vulnerabilities directly into Metasploit, determined the corresponding modules for the specific host, then used the module to compromise a remote Microsoft Windows XP box.
Part 2 covers some of the post-exploitation tasks that a pen tester may use. It begins with some basic Meterpreter tasks. Meterpreter is a specialized pen testing shell that is included in Metasploit as a payload. Using Meterpreter, password hashes are obtained from the exploited machine, and 0phcrack is used to crack the obtained passwords. While the passwords are cracking offline, the viewer is taken back to Meterpreter in order to create a hidden cmd.exe shell on the remote host. Finally we create a new user and add that user to the Administrators group. Ready to see it in action?
Lots more from Ryan in the coming months. Thanks for all of your hard work,

Monitor, Red Pepper closures spark protests in Uganda
Nairobi, May 29, 2013--Ugandan police on Tuesday assaulted and detained several journalists who were among a crowd of demonstrators protesting the government's closure of four independent news outlets, according to news reports and local journalists. The Committee to Protect Journalists said today that the police actions only highlight the government's continuing effort to suppress information concerning a supposed assassination plot.
"Having silenced news outlets for coverage of a critical public issue, Ugandan authorities are now trying to suppress protesters who want to call attention to the censorship," said CPJ East Africa Consultant Tom Rhodes. "The indefinite closure of these media outlets serves as a daily reminder that the government wants to deny its citizens important sources of news and information."

Weighing the Decision
The decision to disclose your HIV status at work is a deeply personal choice that can have both positive and negative outcomes, so think carefully about the pros and cons before you act.
One benefit of disclosing at work is that it can create supportive relationships with your coworkers. On the other hand, telling people that you are living with HIV may have the opposite effect and cause your colleagues to treat you differently. You have to be the judge of which outcome is more likely.
If you decide to disclose to one or more of your coworkers, think carefully about which individuals to tell and how to tell them. Should you tell your boss or the Human Resources Department before you talk to your coworkers? Should you tell your entire work team about your diagnosis or just disclose to individuals? It's good to have a plan in mind before you start telling your colleagues.
Help in Your Workplace
If you aren't sure how to handle disclosing your HIV status at work, many employers offer an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) intended to help employees deal with personal issues that affect work their performance, health, or well-being. EAP services are free of charge and usually available for an employee's immediate family as well. Issues and information that you discuss with an EAP provider remain confidential from your employer, unless the service is mandated by your employer for corrective purposes (such as dealing with substance abuse issues).
Discrimination is Illegal
Although there are pros and cons to disclosing your HIV status to your coworkers, it's important to keep in mind that workplace discrimination based on HIV status is illegal.
The following laws may apply to people living with HIV/AIDS:
- Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
- Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standards
- Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
- Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
- Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
- State, county, and municipal laws on HIV testing, discrimination, etc.
If you are experiencing discrimination after disclosing your status, there are resources available to assist you. For more information, see CDC's Business and Labor Respond to AIDS-HIV is Still at Work .

Frequently Asked Questions
I just got a job as a nurse. Do patients need to be informed that I'm HIV-positive?
Probably not, unless a patient is somehow exposed to your bodily fluids. The American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine's (ACOEM) guidelines state: "ACOEM does not support notification of patients of a healthcare worker's serological status with respect to HIV unless an exposure has taken place. However, because some healthcare workers perform medical procedures in which there is a small risk of viral transmission to patients, they are subject to additional guidelines." For more information, see CDC's Business Responds to AIDS/Labor Responds to AIDS: Policy & Legal FAQs.
I accidentally picked up my coworker's drink and drank it after she did. She has HIV—do I need to be tested?
No. HIV is NOT transmitted by day-to-day contact in the workplace, schools, or social settings. HIV is not transmitted through shaking hands, hugging, or a casual kiss. You cannot become infected from a toilet seat, a drinking fountain, a doorknob, dishes, drinking glasses, food, or pets. For more information, see CDC's Business Responds to AIDS/Labor Responds to AIDS: Transmission & Workplace FAQs.

Media reform stagnates in Zambia
On September 27, the High Court in Zambia's capital, Lusaka, granted acting President Rupiah Banda an injunction restraining The Post newspaper from publishing libelous words against him. Zambia's Sunday Times reported that the court had also given a penal notice to Editor-in-Chief Fred M'membe to comply with the order. M'membe refused and appealed to the court to dismiss the charges against him, but the High Court threw out the application.
Despite promises made in early 2002 by the Ministry of Information and media stakeholders to review media laws that indirectly hinder press freedom, there has been no change in Zambian defamation legislation. Fred M'membe and The Post are in the news for the umpteenth time for the same offense.

Stone sisters going to state
Brainerd Warrior alpine skier Savannah Stone, a Pequot Lakes High School senior, qualified for the state meet for the fifth straight year as she finished third in the Section 5 meet on Thursday, Feb. 7, at Afton Alps.
Stone's sister, Alex, advances to state for a second-straight year after finishing 17th in the section downhill event. The Stones helped the Warrior girls finish third behind Blake and Minnetonka.
"It's another new bench mark for our (program)," Warrior head coach Jim Ruttger said about Savannah's fifth state appearance.
The only skier who could match Savannah's state resume in the near future is her sister, Alex, who is a seventh-grader.
Savannah Stone was tied for second after her first run of 33.59 seconds. She posted the fifth fastest time on her second run of 31.71 to place third, less than a second behind Orono's Rosie Hust, who won the section with a combined 1:04.51.
"Going into it I was nervous," Savannah said in a Brainerd Dispatch story. "I knew I had to put two runs together, and after my first run I was tied for second and I knew that was a good spot to be in for just making it.
"Then the second run I just put another one down and moved to third. I just wanted to go 100 percent and wanted to make sure I put a run down so I had my spot. The team was in my mind, though. I knew there was a chance the team could go, too, if everyone skied great. And everyone did. We all put down good runs."
Blake finished first with 430 points, Minnetonka recorded 429 and Brainerd's 395.
"We could see that building all day long," Ruttger said. "All six of our girls skied great on both of their runs. You couldn't ask for more from our team."
Savannah finished sixth at state last year for the Brainerd program's best finish. She placed 64th in 2011, 17th in 2010 and 72nd in 2009. Alex Stone recorded a first run of 36.95 to land in 20th place. Her second run, 34.13, was the 14th-fastest time and bumped her into 17th place.
"I think I did pretty well on my first run," Alex said. "It was pretty good. My second run, I just really laid it down. It was one of my best runs ever."
The Warrior boys placed 11th as sophomore Gabe Gibson's 44th-place 1:15.02. Pequot Lakes' seventh-grader Tristen Elsenpeter was 49th.
The state meet was scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 13. Updates from the state meet will be available online at pineandlakes.com.

One of my hives has wintered in two deeps and one medium super. I did an inspection today and found the following: bottom deep virtually empty, top deep mostly full of honey and supplies with a couple frames of brood in the middle, top super loaded with brood in middle 4 or 5 frames, with honey on the outside. So basically the brood is in the top where the honey should be and the honey is in the top deep where I want my brood. What do?
If I do nothing, I fear they won't work their way down, especially since there's so much honey they'd need to move around. Presumably this would encourage them to swarm.
My thought is to wait another couple weeks, then remove some of the deep frames of honey and replace them with drawn comb, presumably making more room for them to move down. I guess I could also try to push the queen down then with smoke, then add an excluder to keep her below the super.

text: I filled up my 96 2wd Sierra on Saturday. Monday, I went to take kids to school, and noticed that the needle was pointing south, like to 6 on a clock. My driveway has a small slope to it, nothing major, and it was pulled into the driveway with the back end lower. As I drove the kids to school, the needle was all over the place. It went down when I accelerated, and back up when I slowed or stopped. I went all the the way to E back past F. Today, its a 3/4 full, and isnt moving at all? I am not trusting this darn thing in any way..lol I mentioned it to the ol man who said something was lose and floating around in the tank, (he told me and I forgot what its called, and refuse to say floaty thingie). Which made sense, but if that is the case, why isnt it still erratic? It almost fixed itself, or now its just stuck, not sure which? Do I fill it up and see what it does again, or take it to E and let a mechanic look at it?

I just bought the MBL Duo (4TB) and set it up in RAID 1 mode. I'm using the Windows 7 Back-up utility for back-ups since I wanted a system image I could recover from if my PC's hard drive ever completely crashed and I couldn't find a way to do this using the WD back-up software. It would only back-up the media/data files but didn't seem capable of creating a system image.
Q1: Did I miss something here and is there a way to create a system image using the WD back-up software?
When I'm in RAID 1 mode, I can only see one of the two drives (2 TB).
Q2: How do I view the data on the second drive so I know it is mirroring the first drive properly?
Thanks for the help and if anyone has any advice or tips on which back-up software to use and why, I'd appreciate it.
1) No. WD's SmartWare doesn't create a complete backup; it pretty much only backs up "Data" files, not the applications or system environment.
2) You don't. Just look at the diagnostic screens on the Duo's Web UI to see the RAID health.
Okay, thanks for the replies. They make sense based on what I could see when playing around with the system.
One further question: If my first Duo drive were to die (the one I see when I look at my back-ups), how do I access the mirrored back-up on the second drive since I can't see that?
Thanks again.
If the drive dies for some reason, you would contact our support group to arrange a replacement drive. Once you get the drive, you would power off the unit of course, then remove the failed drive, insert the new drive into the system. You would then power the Duo back up. At that point, the firmware on the unit would recognize the new drive, then go into what is called a RAID rebuild mode. It would begin rebuilding the drive array so that the contents of the second drive would be mirrored back into the new drive.
Hope that helps explain it.
When you see the 2TB you are actually seeing both drives, not just one. The two drives are exact copies of each other, so your data is 100% redundant... but it takes up twice the space.
If one of the drives were to die you would still be able to access all of your data, because both drives contain All of your data. (The beauty of RAID 1)
If you were in RAID 0 the you would have 4TB of storage space, but if one of the drives died you would loose access to it all. The trade off obviously is size vs. protection.
The Quick View would alert you that the RAID had failed, then you would just have to get another drive (like Tony described).
Er, just a slightly off-topic question: what if both drives failed? Does putting in 2 new replacement drives cause a rebuild to the factory-fresh condition of a newly bought Duo? Thanks.
If BOTH drives fail, you're out of business, since all the internal OS is on those drives.
In which case making a backup of your backups isn't a bad idea!

The ivory-billed woodpecker is one of the most extraordinary birds ever to live in America's forests: the biggest woodpecker in the United States, it seems to keep coming back from the dead. Once resident in swampy bottomlands from North Carolina to East Texas, it was believed to have gone extinct as early as the 1920s, but sightings, confirmed and otherwise, have been reported as recently as this year.
From This Story
Related Content
The young ornithologist James T. Tanner's sightings in the late 1930s came with substantial documentation: not only field notes, from which he literally wrote the book on the species, but also photographs. In fact, Tanner's photographs remain the most recent uncontested pictures of the American ivory-bill. Now his widow, Nancy Tanner, has discovered more photographs that he took on a fateful day in 1938.
Tanner was a doctoral candidate at Cornell University when, in 1937, he was sent to look for ivory-bills in Southern swamplands, including a vast virgin forest in northeast Louisiana called the Singer Tract. Two years earlier, his mentor, Arthur Allen, founder of the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, had proved that the "Lord God" bird—so named for what people supposedly exclaimed after getting a look at its 20-inch body and 30-inch wingspan—was still extant, with observations of several adult ivory-bills in the same forest.
"There are relatively few references to young Ivorybills," Allen wrote in 1937, "and there is no complete description of an immature bird." But that would soon change.
On his initial solo trip to the Singer Tract, Tanner became the first person to provide such a description, after watching two adults feed a nestling in a hole they'd carved high in a sweet gum tree. "It took me some time to realize that the bird in the hole was a young one; it seemed impossible," he scribbled in his field notes. When he returned to those woods in early 1938, he discovered another nest hole, 55 feet off the ground in the trunk of a red maple. And in it he discovered another young ivory-bill.
Watching the nest for 16 days, Tanner noted that the bird's parents usually foraged for about 20 minutes at midday. No ivory-bill had ever been fitted with an identifying band, so Tanner resolved to affix one to the nestling's leg while its parents were away.
On his 24th birthday, March 6, 1938, Tanner decided to act. Up he went, on went the band—and out came the ivory-bill, bolting from the nest in a panic after Tanner trimmed a branch impeding his view of the nest hole. Too young to fly, the bird fluttered to a crash landing "in a tangle of vines," Tanner wrote in his field notes, "where he clung, calling and squalling." The ornithologist scrambled down the tree, retrieved the bird and handed it to his guide, J. J. Kuhn. "I surely thought that I had messed things up," Tanner wrote. But as the minutes ticked away, he "unlimbered" his camera and began shooting, "jittery and nervous as all get-out," unsure of whether he was getting any useful pictures. After exhausting his film, he returned the bird to its nest, "probably as glad as he that he was back there."
When Tanner's Cornell dissertation was published as The Ivory-Billed Woodpecker in 1942, the book included two pictures of the juvenile bird perched on Kuhn's arm and head. Those frames, along with four others less widely printed—the only known photographs of a living nestling ivory-bill—have provided generations of birders with an image laden with fragile, possibly doomed, hope.
In a 1942 article for the ornithological journal The Wilson Bulletin, Tanner wrote "there is little doubt but that complete logging of the [Singer] tract will cause the end of the Ivorybills there." The tract was indeed completely logged, and an ivory-bill sighting there in 1944 remains the last uncontested observation anywhere in the United States. Before he died at age 76 in 1991, Tanner, who taught for 32 years at the University of Tennessee, had sadly concluded that the species was extinct.
Three years ago, I began working with Nancy Tanner on a book about her husband's fieldwork. In June 2009, she discovered a faded manila envelope in the back of a drawer at her home in Knoxville, Tennessee. In it were some ivory-bill images. At her invitation, I started going through them.

I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
ATS Issues:
HD radio switching poor quality, echo's.
Voice Prompt length resets to long.
Phone calls do not remember last volume setting.
Pandora frequently has problem syncing with iPhone app.
- Launch pandora app on phone
- Click to radio for a moment, then back to pandora
USB ports in center console don't always activate, no power, no data transfer
HUD frequently resets to higher position, not last position used.
Broken Glove Box
Not happy!
The dealer seems absolutely unconcerned with my problems as does GM itself. I take in the list above this morning with all the problems I am having with the car and he enters them into the computer, but states that unless GM has a fix for these there is nothing they can do. And on top of it, his entire demeanor is purely unapologetic. He even states that GM may not listen or care as they receive all the problems that are reported and are well aware of any and all issues. He also replied that it may not be financially feasible for GM to address the issues, and stated that he hears these same complaints nearly every day.
Then to ad insult to my growing frustration he tells me that he will need my car for several days, even though he just said there is probably no fix, and yet despite requesting a loaner when I made the appointment, there were no loaners available. At this point, my day is going down hill really fast.
But... He would get me a Hertz rental, and they even have a desk in the dealership. Ok, looking up right? No. Guess what, it took 10 minutes to get the Hertz girl to the desk to help me even after the cashier paged her several times. Then once she came, she had no car to give me, and had to have one delivered. Well that took nearly another hour... I also ended up missing a mtg at work because of this... Not cool at all.
This is NOT the way I've ever been treated by a luxury car brand. I felt like I was in some used economy car dealer herded like cattle, and not at a Cadillac dealership.
This just seems like typical Detroit/American cars all over again. I was dying to have this car, but 9 months in, I'm starting to regret it more with each passing day.
And before the "Its a first year model" comments start, let me say that I can understand that. But the car has been out for over ONE year now! And still NO fixes for basic computer coding issues like memory settings which have been reported by many customers. I have NEVER had a car not remember simple stuff, like radio presets, preferences, and other options. NEVER.
I bought a first year E46 (1999), and the only significant problem was a pesky airbag sensor that took 5-6 visits to diagnose and fix, but it WAS fixed. I also bought a first year E90 2006, and it had NO first year problems. I don't mind if problems come up, just have the parts handy to fix them, and I'm happy.
I could care less about the glove box, it broke, it will be fixed. But I can't say the same for all the other stuff thats wrong with my car. And those things take away so much from the driving pleasure. Twice in this past week, while on my way home, I had to pull over and park, and spend over 5 minutes each time messing with the car just to get Pandora to work. Sometimes it works great, sometimes not, and for no apparent reason. And the work arounds dont always work ether. Crazy.
What I'm unhappy about is the lack of any concern or follow through from GM on this. At this point, I just feel like riding this car out as long as I have to financially until I can get rid of it, then get back to a 335/435.
I'm very unhappy with GM and Cadillac on this.
Thanks for taking a look, now back to your regularly scheduled browsing.
Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
first year or not, the problems ur having is definitely excessive in my opinion. and the dealer is being a POS for treating a cadillac owner like that. fk them. new dealer would be a better choice. as far as your pandora issue goes, its not cuz of the car. i had the EXACT same issue ur talking about with my last 2 phones. after upgrading to my current phone, that problem is completely gone. pandora works every single time.
but yes, even for first year problems these are too many and should be addressed with moer care than what that guy showed lol. i think you should give another dealer a chance before completely hating the ATS. i mean its an awesome car aside from those issues ur having, which i think is more of a dealer fault than the car, because if the dealer addresses them properly, i think ull be happy.
Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
Find another dealer. Yours is VERY substandard. And that dealer could be the cause of Cadillac's lack of interest. The dealer is GM's eyes and ears. If the dealer is talking smack about you behind your back that could be why GM isn't acting.
I talked to the guy this afternoon, and only told me was he would check to see if there are any service bulletins that match the issues I described, if there are not, he doesn't seem to have any motivation to pursue it further and all. This is very disheartening.
Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
Fraggy, I share some of the issues you are having and your frustration. My dealer does seem to care but without a GM fix there is not much they can do. I too have no issue with a first year car having issues but my past experience with other car makers is they seem to be far more aggressive in finding resolutions. This is an area I find very disappointing.
Donavo, what phone do you have? I had the issue with my 4s and now my 5s and iOS 6 and 7.

Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
I agree with Donavo; get another dealer. I recently moved and found the dealer closest to me now completely disappointing compared to the one I bought the car from. I called the new dealer the other day, and my phone call was greeted with an "EH?" and the guy made it seem like I was bothering him by asking some questions about wheel locks. Maybe it's because this dealer shares space with Chevy too. Is there another dealer in your area?

I had an issue with a cadillac dealer in the Philly area, rather than dealing with them I went directly to a Chevy dealership, which immediately addressed my issues and even fixed my car for way cheaper. I wouldn't knock Chevy, they have better service than cadillac

The nexus 4/5 send Bluetooth artist/info now. It had to do with stock Android not supporting AVRCP 1.3 (I believe that's the #). It is now included in current versions I believe since Android 4.3.
I will also say I've been through a lot of phones with CUE (3 myself) and the newest version of Android with the new Bluetooth stack work very well, haven't had the issues I used to have for quite a while now.

Same issues with pandora on iPhone4 and 5. I also had problem with broken glovebox and had to wait a couple if days to get one in. My dealer seams to work with me on what they can but some of the issues seem to be out of their control. They don't seem to have the same passion to fix it as much as they did to sell it. It's more of an over promise and under deliver situation with Cadillac it self
Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
Man, this sucks to hear, brings back memories......all i can say is Dealer, Dealer, Dealer.....makes all the difference in the world.....nice, profitable and cool dealers have great relationships with their reps and a good flow of communication with GM.......they don't mind you being a fly in their ointment, and in turn become a fly in GM's ointment on your behalf......mine even became my counselor.......when i said i'm starting to feel bad and guilty complaining all the time..... my service adviser told me not to worry about it and i shouldn't feel bad....the only thing that i was guilty of is buying a nice car and it sucks this is happening to you....she even said to me she was more persistent than i was when she had a rattle in her new trucks door and understands completely......when my turbo failed she was eager to see the video i took, and even called a couple technicians and service mgr up to the showroom so they could have a look at the video......right after i got my car, i knew i needed to replace my wives Malibu, but i wanted 6 months to a year offset between leases so we weren't buying cars two at a time from then on, and decided to treat my wife to some dressing up of her car, she needed tires, so i got her sweet new wheels and tires, i tinted her windows had her car detailed, and her headlights were yellowing a little so i took it to a local performance shop for HID/projector headlight upgrade and plasti dip her grill.....well the performance shop gave the car back with a non operable sunroof, XM, and dash lights, and the dome headlight sensor on the dash was pushed in.......i took my car to my dealer and my service advisor, and her service mgr call the performance shop, and got them to pay for the repairs......so i tell ya it's all about the dealer, todays cars are mostly all really good in one way or another, its the dealer that makes the difference, so much so that when i got a mail offer for an SRX lease from them my wife and i looked at each other and said why not, found the one she liked online that night and i took it to her sight unseen the next day, she never drove it i just bought it......its the dealer

Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
by the sound the last line it sounds like your dealer is my dealer...... to which I say amber is her name, sometimes it takes a bit to see her, because with service like hers she's popular, hutch and Todd too, just stay on that side of service, good folks
Re: I'm really starting to regret my ATS....
Fraggy, if you shopped around for the ATS there is a reason you purchased from that dealer and more often than not it was because you felt comfortable with them along with the price. That said, it is usually the sign of a well run dealer that gets customers and repeat business which carries over into their service department. I leave the Oil changes and tire rotations to my nearby dealer and the difficult stuff goes to where I purchased the car. Look at the bright side you get to drive the ATS there.

Probably nothing to announce for 2013.. ?
So BlizzCon 2013 will be for news in 2014, lets speculate.... The last WOW expansion, level 100 cap? TiTAN release date.. ?
Probably nothing to announce for 2013.. ?
So BlizzCon 2013 will be for news in 2014, lets speculate.... The last WOW expansion, level 100 cap? TiTAN release date.. ?
If there is nothing new to show, it makes sense to skip Blizzcon.
On the other hand, it was always a big event for the community - bringing people from all over the world together.
Skipping it because "they have too much to do" (which is apparently their official reason) might not be helping with their image.
Oh no! I won't get to see the community whine insistently about how the virtual items bonus is a rip of, the virtual pass itself is a rip off, nothing good happened at BlizzCon, and all they hyper-sensitive politically correct police think Blizz purposely offended their pet cause / issue? /sarcasm Yeah I'm sure this post might be flame bait but if I was them I'd shut it down for good. The bad apples have spoiled it in a lot of ways. Unhappy people trying to drag everyone else down and rationalize it so they feel justified. Stinks because I always enjoyed it (and the game itself) for the light-hearted fun entertainment that it seems intended to be. Oh well.
People are going to be more disappointed when Titan isn't going to be revealed next year either.
Titan will be revealed 2014.in 2013 all three games (D3, MoP and HoTS) are out. Blizzcon in 2013 will therefore be stacked with announcing:- WoW xpac 5- D3 xpac 1- SC2 LoTV.
Where the hell in all of that is Titan fitting? Nowhere.
But in 2014 there is "nothing" to announce because that is the year all the expansions in 2013 are being released and they can focus a Blizzcon entirely on Titan.Thats my 2 cents.

Gee golly, all you posters couldn't be more wrong! Everyone knows the real reason BlizzCon was cancelled this year is because they ran out of ideas for new non-combat pets to give out, duh!
That just shows they dont care about their customers anymore.
Does it matter either way with the world ending this year
If the world were ending this year I would want to go to one last BlizzCon.
I don't think a Congressman can help me with a Blizzard issue. lol Everyone should just spam Blizzard with emails and phone calls although that hasn't really helped in the past. >.>

In these days of cell phones many consider this to be superfluous. But consider, knowing where you are doesn't mean that help can get to you.
High energy food, water and warm blankets or clothing, as well as votive candles (I prefer them to canned heat) can be stored in a 50 cal ammo can in a trunk. While an ammo can probably can't hold 10 days survival supplies if water is included, keeping one in your car or trunk is easy insurance.


text: Here's the run down. My truck ran into a snow back about 2 weeks ago and now the heater doesn't heat until I rev the engine above approx. 2000rpm. If the truck is idle the heater will blow cool air even when the engine is completely warmed up (half way up temp guage). Once I push the accelerator however the heater works just fine. Also once I have driven the truck and then let it sit again, the heater will continue to blow hot air for a minute or two before going back to blowing cool air. I can't for the life of me, figure out what is causing this. Any help will be much appreciated. -Greg

Potable water could be a real problem, and there is much to worry about if you're forced to rely on alternate sources. There is a lot of chemical, and pesticide runoff contamination that is very hard to remove. If I wanted to supplement a residential water supply, besides ground water(if it tests good), I would look at a roof water, cistern storage system.

The Fortuna Huskies and Ferndale Wildcats volleyball teams have recently experienced big wins on the road, but tough losses have tempered the jubilation for those teams. Both the Husky and Wildcat junior varsity teams have had their share of setbacks in close matches on the volleyball court as well. The Ferndale girls soccer team recently secured a satisfying win and though the Fortuna girls team got back to the win column, they are facing injuries to key players. Cross Country, girls tennis and high school golf continue the schedule with home meets coming soon. The youth football Eel River Valley Huskies return home this Sunday and take on Ferndale Youth Football and the Arcata teams in five games over the course of the day.
The Ferndale Lady Cats volleyball team missed out on a golden opportunity to seize first place in league this past Tuesday evening on their home court versus the St. Bernard's Crusaders. The girls were coming off thrilling road wins over league opponents Hoopa and South Fork recently. Both of those matches went 3 sets to 2 in favor of the Wildcats and put Ferndale in great shape for their home game against the Crusaders. However, the Lady Cats just came out flat, making uncharacteristic mistakes on their home court, and fell in straight sets to St. Bernard's. The final scores: 25-15, 25-17 and 25-22.
After losing sets one and two, the Cats came out and played to their potential in set three and built a 15-2 point lead. But they lost their momentum and St. Bernard's came storming back to take the final set. A frustrated Ferndale head coach Melissa Throssel will go back to the drawing board to figure out why the team played so poorly at home as a home game versus Hoopa looms today. The Ferndale JV team also lost in straight sets to the Crusaders 25-20 and 25-23. The junior varsity is still looking for their first win in league, though every time they take the court they are competitive.
The Fortuna Huskies varsity volleyball team earned their first league victory this week when they traveled to Crescent City and took on the Del Norte Warriors. After losing the opening set, the Huskies regained their composure and reeled off three straight to win 3-1. Scores of the sets read 18-25, 26-24, 25-20 and 25-20. The team is recouping after a bout of sickness affected several members during the past week. That issue was evident when the Huskies hosted McKinleyville last week. On a night honoring long time Fortuna Husky supporter Shirley Johnson, the depleted Huskies lost game one 25-16 and saw front line hitter Courtney Christiansen fall hard to the floor with an injury. Fortuna responded with a inspired effort in set two as the teams battled back and forth until the Huskies pulled out an incredible 35-33 set win.
Unfortunately the energy levels could not be maintained and Fortuna lost sets 3 and 4 ending the evening match. Huskies Taylor Barnhart had 15 kills and Nicole Johnson had 8 kills in the losing effort. The Fortuna junior varsity lost to the Panthers by 2-1 set score. The win up at Del Norte improved the varsity team to 1-2 in league and chances of another win are looking good as all the girls on the roster get back up to speed.
The Ferndale Lady Cats soccer team earned a satisfying victory at Del Norte last Friday. Wins have been hard to come by for this young team however first half goals by Katrina Senestraro, Alejandra and Emma Gomes gave the Cats a commanding lead and a 2nd half goal by the Warriors did not change the outcome, Cats win 3-1. It is the 2nd local win for the team as they won 5-0 over St. Bernard's back in September. This past Saturday Ferndale visited Fortuna for the second time this season and were on the short end of a 3-0 score. Still a improvement over the last time they faced the strong Husky team.
Speaking of the Fortuna Huskies girls soccer team, they are back to their winning ways after the tough loss against the Arcata Tigers. Since then they topped St. Bernard's 9-0 and Ferndale by the 3-0 score. On the negative side, a couple of injuries are hurting the team's chances for the latter half of the schedule. First Devan Nielsen went down with an injury and most recently Mackenzie Rice was found to have a broken bone in her foot. Rice tried to play through the pain until the severity of the injury was diagnosed and she had to call it a season. The team still has some weapons to their disposal for the rest of the season. We will try to catch up to some of the other sports in the next couple of weeks as the fall season starts to wind down.

Nope it's a bad video. Do you see how she didn't warn him that she had a gun? What a violation of his rights. If she would have warned him maybe he would have stopped and apologized and never committed another crime again. Now everyone bring it in. Let's hug the world

LOL. Good one!!!!
Enforcement, NOT Amnesty!!!!!!
"If theyre going to come here illegally, apply for & receive assistance through a corrupted Government agency encouraging this lawless behavior, work under the table & send billions of dollars each year back to their families in Mexico, while bleeding local economies dry, protest in our streets waving their Mexican flags DEMANDING rights, while I have to press 1′ for English, then they need to be shipped back to where they came from!" -Chad Miller

I know the build is the fun part, but it seems you're going to put alot of money and time into something that will perform average at best. I'd be surprised if you achieve anything better than M.O.M at 500 meters on the AK platform.
I am in the planning stages of a new 223 varmit build. The varmit II will be an all out attempt at out doing my previous build. I am starting to collect parts and think about how I want it. I bought a match grade, benchrest barrel in 1in 9 twist. This barrel is beautiflly machined it almost seems a shame to cut the threads off it. the thight chamber is possably going to cause feeding issues as well it will require neck turning of quality brass . I am going all out on this build. match barrel, heavy wall reciver, yugo trunion. heavyer scope mounts, milled drop out trigger group that is eaiser to adjust. possably a second trigger group that is set up for singleshot only in the 1 pound or less range the trigger group will also have larger more percisian pins, push button saftey, left hand charge handel so shell catcher wont hit or be in the way, longer mag well an custom mag so I can seat heavy bullets further out like the AR guys do in 1000 meter compition but mine will not have to be hand feed, aluminum float tube fore grip, adjustable muzzel brake (possably if accuracy will not be affected), aluminum gas block with stainless linner and a shut off, also looking at smaller, lighter firing pin posabilitys and a some way of reducing the lock time on the hammer as well. the stock is up in the air but I want a quick adjust rear rest on it and a way to add weight. I am thinking a custom dust cover that will allow easier removel with a even lower scope. I want to get the scope as low as possable to the barrel. it will be a while before it is done but I will post pics unlike the last build. I aqm posting this in the calibur conversion section because It will be on a 7.62x39 kit and parts. the bolt will be Kvar bulgy.
are there any threaded trunions for a stamped reciver out there avaliable??? was there even such a animal? was thinking a threaded barrel wold be a good idea as it will not have as much stress and tension on it. I am thinking of finding some place were this thing might be competive in a class against AR15,s. I dont compete in rifle shoots but might like to try. maybe 1000 meter or WHAT?? any compitition shooters out there. also looking at a 22 PPC barrel as well.

SUPRISEI'd be surprised if you achieve anything better than M.O.M at 500 meters on the AK platform.
current gun built three years ago
My first attempt at reloading 2 years ago 5 shots 100 yards of a flat bed truck slight cross wind. work up load 50 grain vmax
here is 20 rounds shot at moderate pace into two targets no barrel cooling while making scope adjusments at 200 yards! if you look close on the right target you will see a circle around the first five that are touching. I then went to the other target and gave the scope two clicks to the left and took out the center with three rounds. the remainder of the Mag (10 rounds)was then shot into bolth circles. one round of 20 is out side of the orange ( MY fault) the targets are on a stuck on the dust sheild of a 44mm scope to give an idea of there size. this was shot 4 weeks ago sighting in for prairie dog hunt off a flat bed truck but in a rest. very slight cross wind. 50 grain nosler balistic tip h322 powder winchester brass trimed to length. no sorting buy weight or neck turning or any thing complicated. likely room for improvement.
my current gun will shoot at or under .5" 5 shot groups @100 yards now with a 26" savage take off barrel and a 2.5 LB trigger and cheap optics. and that is with 50 grain varmit bullets. It is on par with most AR 15,s in the $1200 range that I have seen shoot and will out do a lot of them. last month I was routenly taking praire dogs with it at 400 yards with kills out to 600. cross winds and my inablity to adjust optics with any consistancy was the limiting factor that and the 50 grainers just run out of steam.
I am confident that if the new barrel is any bettter than the factory savage takeoff and I could get the trigger pull to 1.5lbs an be able to load heavy match bullets seated out to were they are even close to the rifleing that I can improve the berformance over my current gun, I hope to shoot 69-77 grain math bullets
In 223 it is on par with other auto loaders that I have run across in the same calibur (not a lot of them but a few varmit AKs from rock river and DPMS) IF it would be competive in a match, I have no idea. but I certanily feel it will give a good showng against other 223 autos.
the main cost I,ll have in this is in the barrel and optics. the rest is all labor on custom parts. My current gun was built for under $400. The new build is going to need a good scope no more $75 BSA stuff that hurts my eyes and wont repeat its settings. Im likely looking at $500 to $1000+ in optics but that will be some thing that works on other guns down the road.
I have not shot it on paper at 500 yards or at a range off a good bench but it will do a hell of a lot better than a meter group at that range.
There are about 20 different things that can be done to help improve accuracy on an AK, and on a .223 platform you already have an inherently stable caliber. Check this out - I found a bullpup design from Russia that has a free-floated barrel, VERY COOL BTW, and I would suspect that helps grouping:

I'd like to see some 7.62x39 groups at 500 or 1000 meters..
I'd like to see some 7.62x39 groups at 500 or 1000 meters..
BIGAL funny you mentioned that I am working on a .308x39 that I have high hopes for. It is going to use a rechamberd 30-06 barrel stainless sporter profile aproximently 23". It will have some of the features of my first varmit build but the barrel will be lighter. It may not get the custom gas bock and floating tube, Or the 18 punds of carry weight. I do expect/want it to shot a 1"" group however. My amd 65 pistlol that is scoped has shot 1" groups at a 100 with hand loads. I have a line on some lupa brass so we will see how it goes. I bought reamers so I may do a bolt action in 7.62x39 as well and I am looking for a heavy .308 blank for a all out 7.62x39 AK. I have seen some very very tight groups posted buy reloaders with bolt actions in 7.62. there is no reason given my results with the varmit build that a good barrel and ammo in 7.62 will not shoot as well at least at 100 yards. I have no illusions of shooting 1000 meter with it however. (any one now at what range a 7.62round would go subsonic???) that I have a lot of projects on the table right now so it will be a while.
HC that gun is very very interesting I would like to see the scope mount up close as well as the rest of it. I see the mount is suported by the barrel and the trunion or the RSB. that barrel has to be close to 28" long and that break is huge an the hole looks 30 cal. Do you have any info on it???????.
My varmit rifle has a floating barrel of sorts. the gas tube is not touching the barrel the piston does ride in the Gas block but it is a loose fit in the carrier. the rsb/scope mount is still pressed onto the barrel but it is mated to the trunion to act like one piece. the fore grip makes no contact what so ever. It shot the same with or without a gas port and tube
I see the scope mount on a AR15 as a detriment to the system. you have a scope on a aluminum reciver with the barrel screwd into that. if nothing else the expansion and contraction of aluminum being differant from the steel barrel should in theroy throw off the aim. I dont have a lot of AR experiance (I do have 2 recivers for proposed varmit builds here though.) to me the limiting factor of the AK is the bolt lock up. it is pretty sloppy. trueing the bolt to the trunion is tough as the lugs are small and nothing really centers it tightly.
If you think that sagia shoots good with wolf55 grain try some hand loads or hornady stuff you will likely be more Suprised. mine shot good with factor stuff but got amazing to me with basic reloads.
You guys should check out some of these groups and loads. If to be belived there is a
.193 group listed there and a lot of .250 groups. the round is accurate also the parent of the 6mm ppc arguably the mosgt accurate in the world. If I can get my 223 to shoot
.5 groups then thre is no reason a 7.62x39 or .308x39 will not do the same (click on the 7 below for the link)
don't take me wrong, i just see the 7.62x39 as anything but a 500m m.o.m cartridge. kinda like a modernized 30-30. I know everything can be improved, but to what extent is it worth it. The .223 round is a little different.
If I was going to attempt such a project, i believe i would start out with a milled receiver....
I don't think anyone has actually taken the time and effort to accurize (is that a word?) a 7.62x39 round. I was really talking about the AK action itself, and a PPC round on an AK action would perhaps be the best all-around tack driver for the AK platform IMO.
Now I have wondered just how accurate of groups you can get out of the x39, and honestly I think a great deal of it boils down to how good of a barrel and how good of ammo you can get. I think it would benefit greatly from a name-brand barrel, perhaps a bit longer for extra velocity, and hand loads that have had all of the "tricks" done to it, even neck turning. But again, most people are going to put that effort into a "proven" round like the .223 and stick with cheap ammo for their AKs. Which is a shame! Because if my .223 can keep things in the black with a factory barrel, just think what biggun's match-grade barrel could do.

I've rechambered 30-30 for 30-30 ackley and the results are amazing. i'm sure you can obtain good results from the x39, but i believe you have to start with the big problems (flex=slop).
one thing i have never seen is anyone post accuracy results from their x39 from a bolt rifle.

Danville has been fortunate to have a lovely garden to enjoy on Hartz Avenue at Church Street, right in front of Bridges restaurant. In 1989, when Kazuo Sugitani brought his 16-year-old son, Ryota, from Kobe, Japan, to attend Athenian School, he fell in love with Danville, so the story goes. He opened Bridges, a restaurant that fuses Japanese food and atmosphere with that of Northern California, which Ryota Sugitani ran until a few years ago. And, to give something more to the residents, Kazuo Sugitani also created an island of serenity for everyone to enjoy, a peaceful garden on Hartz Avenue next to the sign for Bridges.

Invasive Plants
Hello all. I wanted to post some information about invasive plant species because I think it's very important. I own a consulting firm that has been involved with eradication of invasive species for more than 12 years and have a lot of experience working with these and many other species. I see lots of folks are using Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica) and/or common reed (Phragmites australis) for mason bee nesting materials. I think it is very important to note that both of these species are aggressive invasive plants. Invasive plants are plants that outcompete native species and destroy the complexity of our natural ecosystems. Once established these species can be quite difficult to eradicate.
While there in nothing wrong with using either of these species for nesting material you can take some simple steps to keep these species from spreading.
1. Never throw plant fragments/clippings/leaves from either of these plants in your compost bin, in the woods etc. Both of these species can spread from any fragment of the
plant and will establish themselves quickly. Common reed can spread from fragments but seeds are the most typical form of spread. Make sure you do not spread the seed heads.
2. Dispose of clippings in your trash in a sealed plastic bag.
For more information about invasive plants in your state do a Google search for your state name and invasive plant species list. Or if you want more information please contact me and I will do what I can to help you out! If you send pictures I can most likely ID the plant. For specific information on these species you can go here:
Japanese knotweed: http://www.invasivespeciesinfo.gov/p...knotweed.shtml
Common reed: http://www.invasivespeciesinfo.gov/a...mmonreed.shtml
You are all helping the environment with you mason bee work. Dont offset those positive benefits by spreading invasive plants!

Lightning shut out Becker-BL 3-0
The Northern Lakes Lightning boys' hockey team earned its first victory of the season with a 3-0 non-conference shutout win over Becker-Big Lake on Saturday, Dec. 1, at Breezy Point Arena.
Keegan Couture scored twice for the Lightning while sophomore goaltender Mitch Stangl stopped 22 shots in the victory.
"We've played well over the years against them," Northern Lakes coach Shawn Chambers said of defeating Becker-BL. "Mitch (Stangl) has played well in goal in each of our first three games. We're doing a decent job in our zone, but the problem is we're not putting the puck in the net. We've outshot all three teams we've played, but we only scored four goals. We need to find a way to get the puck in the net."
The Lightning, 1-2 overall, was scheduled to play at Greenway on Thursday, Dec. 6, and then face Kittson-Central at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 8, at the Hallet Community Center in Crosby.
Lightning 3, Becker-BL 0
On Saturday, Dec. 1, Northern Lakes took control with three goals in the middle period. Couture opened the scoring with a goal, assisted by Ben Moe, at 28 seconds. Kyle Narveson tallied to make it 2-0 at the 3:00 mark. Nick Blanchette and Austin Messenbrink assisted on the goal.
Couture then scored on the power play, assisted by Gaven Bickford, at the 13:20 mark.
Losing netminder Ben Manzke stopped 39 shots as the Lightning had a 42-22 edge in shots.
Becker-Big Lake 0 0 0 — 0
Northern Lakes 0 3 0 — 3
Second period: NL-Kegan Couture (Ben Moe) :28: NL-Kyle Narveson (Nick Blanchette, Austin Messenbrink) 3:00; NL-Couture (Gaven Bickford) (ppg) 13:20
Shots on goal: B-BL 21, NL 43
Goalies: B-BL-Ben Manzke (39 saves); NL-Mitch Stangl (22 saves)
Detroit Lakes 2, Lightning 0
On Thursday, Nov. 29, the Lakers' netminder McKenzie Steele made 31 saves in a Mid-State Conference victory over Northern Lakes.
Stangl turned aside 26 of the 28 shots he faced as the losing goaltender.
After a scoreless opening period, Detroit Lakes netted the winning goal as Sam Bergren tallied. Jonathan Hallisey extended the lead to 2-0 with a third-period tally.
Detroit Lakes 0 1 1 — 2
Northern Lakes 0 0 0 — 0
Second period: DL-Sam Bergren (Brady Crawford) 12:58

Center for the Science & Engineering of Cyber Security (CSECS)
The objective of the center is to study principles of Cyber Security, how to measure, assess, and enforce security in legacy systems, and how to build new systems that are secured. The science of Cyber Security is addressed by exploiting formal techniques that are theoretically grounded to express, model, and reason about security accurately. The engineering of cyber security utilizes empirical techniques that aim to create holistic and systematic approaches to development of automated tools for cyber security system analysis. The center also examines cyber security issues facing the general public, such as security in business enterprises, health care, and national infrastructures. If you would like to see more information on our research or other areas of this group, please use the navigation bar above.
Summer Workshop on Cyber Security
The Center for the Science and Engineering of Cyber Security in the Department
of Computer Science at Texas Tech University and the
for Security Studies at Angelo State University
have been awarded a two−year grant from the National Science Foundation
Award #1241756) to offer summer workshop in the area of cyber security to faculty, instructors, and teachers from
community colleges in Texas. The project accepts applications for a week−long workshop to be held in the Department
of Computer Science at Texas Tech University during Summer 2013.

Stylistically, not so much. At least not in Mia Hansen-Løve's TOUT EST PARDONNÉ|ALL IS FORGIVEN (July 11 at 6 pm; July 12 at 6:15 pm), which resembles the calculated kitchen-sink formlessness of Olivier Assayas's 1998 multi-character melodrama Fin août, début septembre (in which Hansen-Løve, now Assayas's fiancée, played a part). Victor (Paul Blain), an aspiring writer much like the protagonist in Louis Malle's 1963 Le fou follet, can't kick his addictions to booze, smack, and self-pity — despite the long-suffering loyalty of his wife, Annette (Marie-Christine Friedrich), and the resilient innocence of his six-year-old daughter, Pamela (Victoire Rousseau). Annette gives him the heave-ho, 11 years pass, and the now-teenage Pamela (Constance Rousseau) must come to grips with her long estranged dad. A simple tale told simply, allowing the characters and the commonplaces of life to come to the fore, and thus affording a glimpse into their mystery.
More formally ambitious and certainly more self-conscious is Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi's ACTRICES|ACTRESSES (July 13 at 5:30 pm; July 18 at 6 pm). Bruni-Tedeschi plays Marcelline, a diva-esque actress who in turn is playing Natalya Petrovna in a production of Turgenev's A Month in the Country. Her inability to connect with the part might be attributed to her need to have a baby before her biological clock ticks out. Meanwhile, her old drama schoolmate Nathalie (Noémie Lvovsky) is assisting the director, Denis (Mathieu Amalric), and wishing she could dump her husband and kid and have Denis and the glamorous theater life to herself. Bruni-Tedeschi achieves some wry, Fellini-esque moments, such as a scene in which Marcelline's dotty aunt and mother watch their grand piano get hoisted into a window like a wounded elephant. More such moments instead of fanciful visitations by ghosts or by the spirit of Natalya Petrovna might have brought this artifice to life.
By far the most original and successful debut comes not from an actress but from photographer and video artist Delphine Kreuter. Her 57000 KM ENTRE NOUS|57,000 KILOMETERS BETWEEN US (July 11 at 4:20 pm; July 12 at 2:30 pm; July 19 at 2:50 pm) opens with a family driving through a modular suburban development. They are following the errant injunctions of their PS guidance system and looking for Gran's house within a maze of identical structures. A trite commentary on the mass homogenization of society, perhaps, until they find the house and Gran pops out tarted up like a Las Vegas showgirl.
