Most film festivals aren't accessible to the public, but Toronto loves film. It's a city whose glittering skyline is frequently passed off as Manhattan, and it's the largest film production centre in North America, outside LA and New York. The Canadian film industry has an annual turnover of $1.7 billion (CAD) and the festival alone brings $185 million (CAD) to the city. Over its 11 days, the festival even gets its own TV channel. But not everyone approves: as one grumpy critic was heard to moan, queueing with 500-plus people to watch homegrown director David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method, 'Just because I love driving, doesn't mean I get to go to f***ing Le Mans.'
In fact, although the grizzled critic may moan, this audience footfall is precisely the appeal. Over breakfast at the Renaissance Hotel (from where you can look down into the Rogers Centre stadium and watch the Blue Jays baseball team training), Toronto's film commissioner Peter Finestone explains, 'Studios and film-makers see Toronto as somewhere they can bring their films to test them out on audiences. It used to be that they would see what happened at Cannes, see what happened at Venice and then think about Toronto. Now Toronto is programmed completely independently.'
I stayed in the Art Deco splendour of the Fairmont Royal York, which is often used as a movie location - most recently for Dream House, the film on which Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz got together. But even if you're in town for the festival, it feels wrong to sit in a darkened room, or your fabulous hotel, for the duration of your stay. For shopping or just to soak up the atmosphere, Queen Street West is a must. The area's hipness was kickstarted by The Drake Hotel, a former doss house, which opened in 2004 (these days it's the perfect spot for a Bloody Mary after a late night of festival larks), and the area is the setting for Sarah Polley's new film Take This Waltz - which showed at TIFF, naturally - starring Michelle Williams and Seth Rogen as married writers whose domestic bliss is threatened by a handsome artist/rickshaw driver who lives across the street. You can only hope the area doesn't become too fashionable. Domestic rents have almost doubled in recent years, but it's still a comparatively affordable city. And as Michael Rachmel, co-founder of local tea boutique Tealish (tealish.com), told me as he taught me to make iced tea, 'You get almost all of the good things about New York or LA but with none of the bad in Toronto' - not least, attitude, pollution and the frenetic pace.
Once the city's slum, the area's architecture is low-rise with streets of impossibly sweet porch-fronted houses and an amazing number of quirky, independent shops. A foodie tour with Trina Hendry (chowbellaconcierge.com) introduced me to Delight's handmade organic chocolates, ice cream and artisan cheeses, the Spice Market, and the perfect cakes and macaroons at Nadège (nadege-patisserie.com), where I sat in the sunny garden and people-watched while reading the resiliently highbrow The Globe and Mail newspaper.
For fashion, Cabaret vintage (cabaret vintage.com), which started life as a film costumier, is a must-visit, as is Preloved, which sells handmade pieces that are made using rescued material - fans include Julia Roberts and Anne Hathaway (preloved.ca). Nearby, Charlie is another affordable little boutique with a fun mix of almost entirely Canadian designers - ideal for tapping into the local style.
Those spoilt by Cannes and Venice might say that it's not a film festival without a beach and, even in September, Toronto can answer that need. A boat from Toronto harbour to the nature reserve of Centre Island, a little way out into Lake Ontario, takes half an hour, passing lagoons and yacht clubs and giving you an excellent view of the city skyline. Once there, you can sunbathe on the spotlessly clean and quiet Chelsea Beach, or visit the tiny and very innocent children's amusement park.
It's not hard to see why Toronto con-sistently tops polls of the happiest cities to live in. But perhaps I am biased since Toronto is the city where I finally met George Clooney. Yes, I'd like to write that line again... He's a member of Soho House in LA and - testament to the fact that most of Hollywood decamps to TIFF for the week - the club has run a pop-up here for the past couple of years. I dropped in for a nightcap, following dinner at the spectacular rooftop restaurant of the Royal Ontario Museum, and there he was, fresh from the premiere of his film The Descendants. Thank goodness I'd had time to get the sand out of my hair and my feet into a pair of high heels. Our eyes met, we shook hands... blinking in the full beam of the Clooney charm has to come high on any happiness index. There was a studiously cool crowd, but even there the party moved like a tidal wave with Clooney, swirling upstairs when he did, where he remained until the early hours, nursing a vodka.
On Sunday night I dragged myself out for the fifth night on the trot. Burroughes, a famous old furniture store on Queen Street West, had been temporarily face-lifted by Bungalow 8 for talent agency CAA's party. It looked great, but the only food was a table laden with pick'n'mix - welcome to Hollywood. Gerard Butler (Gerry to his friends) bounced around the room, dancing to the Rolling Stones, excited about the standing ovation he'd got for Machine Gun Preacher, but also admitting to being 'terrified' about what audiences would make of their action hero in Ralph Fiennes's forthcoming Coriolanus.
Perhaps it's a Dantean metaphor for Hollywood that when you get to the hottest party, there will always be a velvet rope blocking off the next circle of hell. Guests were gathered in the stairwell, determined to make it up to the 'over-capacity' roof where the A-listers were doing their partying. Gael Garcia Bernal smiled patiently at the foot of the stairs until he was recognised and whisked upstairs and, ignoring the baying producers circling around me, I followed his lead and did the same. As if by magic, with much talking on walkie-talkies, I was escorted upstairs. I have no idea who they thought I was.
Upstairs, looking out over the skyline, things were even more surreal. I had to down non- alcoholic vitamin drinks for the first hour or so, just to be able to take it all in. I found myself sharing strawberry jellies with Clive Owen, while everyone danced beneath outdoor heaters, and later chatted to man of the moment Michael Fassbender. I was surprised to learn that he still lives in Hackney and refuses to move to LA. But while the endless promoting must get tiresome, he seemed surprised that anyone could get bored of the festival circuit: 'Are you joking? I'm having too much fun,' he said, straight off a plane from Venice. He claimed to be taking some time off next year - 'to have a break, and so everyone can have a break from me' - but with the level of Oscar speculation around his performances in A Dangerous Method and Shame, that seems highly unlikely.
I was finally thrown out at 4am, leaving time for one final stop at Cherry Cola's, a favourite Queen Street West nightspot with a deep red interior and fabulous chandeliers, that gets a special late licence for the duration of the festival, where we partied until the sun came up. Roll on TIFF 2012. ES

|jstack and Tomcat 6 on Windows
|Fri, 19 Sep 2008 18:10:49 GMT
Hello, I run Tomcat 6.0.x as a service on Windows 2003, using Sun JDK 1.6. I was trying to use the jstack program, part of the JDK, to get a stack dump from Tomcat/Java on my server. However, I ran into a problem. First of all, Tomcat on Windows seems to "hide" the JVM instance. Java doesn't show up in my process listing. I tried running jstack against the Tomcat PID but it errored out. Any idea how to make jstack work with Tomcat running as a service on Win2k3? BTW: I can get a stack dump using a tool like Sun's VisualVM, but I wanted to use jstack as part of a script, which I obviously can't do with VisualVM. Thanks, Brian

How much improvement should I expect from treatment of these severe acne scars? (photos)
Doctor Answers 4
Multiple modalities for severe scars.
The majority of patients will have a collection of different scar types, and hence a tailored treatment METHOD will be best. Careful examination, especially under angled lighting with scar mapping will give you an understanding of what are the best options for your scars. In your case you will benefit most from INFINI RF (given your skin type, also surgical subcision, and dermal grafting/ fillers.

Your photos show active acnes still. Treatment plan works well if we give priority to treat on the acnes first. Oral or topical treatments may be given depending upon the severity of acne. As far as the scars are concerned, multiple therapy can be given to treat the post acne scars. This includes micro-needling sandwiched with restructuring serums and growth factors and may give a satisfactory results when the sessions are complete. In later stages, Subcision and fat fills for deep scars will improve the condition. Your doctor will decide the treatment intervals and durations.

We agree with Johnson and colleagues1 (May 2004) that the "breath of fire" yoga technique most probably induced the pneumothorax they reported, and also with their appropriate cautionary advice. However, there is a question of balance and perspective here. Nowhere in their report do they clearly define the breath of fire as an advanced technique, or "extreme yoga" technique, to be practiced only by advanced students after appropriate instruction. By implication therefore, their report appears to unjustly flame all yoga techniques. This is not appropriate for a discipline that has generally been practiced safely for not hundreds, but thousands of years.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Racial identity, gentrification, and indie rock frame Barry Jenkins' breakthrough film, Medicine for Melancholy; a sweet, provocative, and sometimes redundant film about two hip, African American twentysomethings who spend one full day together in San Francisco after hooking up at a party the night before.
San Francisco has been the backdrop for a ton of movies—Vertigo, Bullitt, the Towering Inferno, 48 Hours, So I Married an Axe Murderer—but in Jenkins' film, the city's giant hills, bustling city streets, museums, renters-rights debates, and indie music actually shape the story's narrative. As the two main characters walk up and down hills, ride their bikes downtown, attend exhibits, walk past an open-door neighborhood town-hall meeting, and get drunk at a mostly white hipster bar, locales actually help focus and shape conversation.
Jenkins' "medicine"—constructive debate, the excitement of meeting someone new—for "melancholy"—struggling to understand and define racial and cultural identity—can feel a little forced. Arguments between the two main characters sometimes fizzle and come to no conclusion or consensus. But this frequently funny, often endearing look at life in San Francisco will serve as a worthwhile time capsule for the City by the Bay, and many of its complexities.
Medicine For Melancholy screened at SXSW in Austin in March, and more recently at the San Francisco International Film Festival. It will screen in Los Angeles June 19.

First for the price you pay giving only plastic guides is not good enough. One of the pressed threaded bushes for adjusting the tilt has fallen off and the metal disc for routing out the mortice does not fit the guide bush properly so all in all I am not impressed with the quality of this jig. However it does work.

Thanksgiving is somewhat of a forgotten holiday. Nestled tightly between Halloween and Christmas, there is little consumer demand for the Thanksgiving items which usually occupy only a few small shelves in most stores. I guess its understandable. There isn't nearly as much call for wooden Pilgrims as there is for skeletons or nutcrackers. Yet, while Thanksgiving isn't as important on the Christian calendar as Christmas (and it goes without saying that Halloween isnt' exactly a favorite among Christians), Thanksgiving holds a great deal of meaning for Christians. It is one day set aside specifically to give thanks to God (so many people forget the highlighted part) for the blessings He has bestowed upon us and our country.
But it is that "to God" part of the equation that seems to cause people to want to debunk the holiday -- especially the first Thanksgiving in 1621. For example, the History News Network at George Mason University has published a short sheet of the Top 10 Myths About Thanksgiving. Several of the myths noted by the article have little to do with Thanksgiving itself, but relate to the lives of the people we now call Pilgrims generally. Thus, the article notes that the Pilgrims didn't live in log cabins (for those of you who confused the Pilgrims with Abraham Lincoln), that the Pilgrims didn't always wear black (apparently, they preferred earth-tones -- something that would have let them fit in nicely in Oregon), and that Puritans didn't hate sex (for those who thought that the Pilgrims were not really human beings).
Similarly, Mayflower Myths on History.com mostly points out several myths about the pilgrims that don't seem to have any impact on the celebration of the holiday itself. Some, in fact, don't even seem like myths at all. I know that I had never heard that the Pilgrims had brought furniture from England on the Mayflower, so the busting of that myth wasn't too disappointing. (Although, I have to admit my extreme disappointment to learn that the Pilgrims didn't wear those really cool buckles on their shoes....)
Not surprisingly, the myth article with the most critical eye towards the Pilgrims was entitled Deconstructing the Myths of "The First Thanksgiving" by Judy Dow (Abenaki) and Beverly Slapin. Abenaki is a Native American name -- it is the name of a subdivision of the Algonquian nation of northeastern North America. Still, even this myth article includes at least one myth that isn't very myth-y, i.e., the well-known fact that the Pilgrims didn't actually originally set foot on Plymouth Rock. (Heck, I didn't think that anyone really thought that....)
Who was first?
A few of the alleged myths on the three pages involve Thanksgiving, but have little impact on the essentials of the celebration. For example, two of the three pages note that the Pilgrims didn't actually hold the first Thanksgiving. According to the debunkers, thanksgivings have been held for centuries. In America alone, the English settlers held an earlier day of thanksgiving in Jamestown in 1619. The Spanish held thanksgiving celebrations in 1598. And, of course, who knows exactly how many thanksgivings that the Native Americans held in the thousands of years they occupied the continent before the arrival of the English invaders. According to the Deconstructing article, "for Native peoples, thanksgiving comes not once a year, but every day, for all the gifts of life. To refer to the harvest feast of 1621 as 'The First Thanksgiving' disappears [sic] Indian peoples in the eyes of non-Native children."
While I don't mean to denigrate the thanksgiving for all the gifts of life celebrated by the Native peoples every day, Christians have also been giving thanks to God for everything for centuries as well. (When I sit at the dinner table and say a prayer with my family before eating I am engaging in a thanksgiving in that sense.) Harvest feasts are (and have been) common not only on the North American continent, but around the world. Still, no one is saying that people didn't have thanksgiving celebrations before the 1621 wingding by the Pilgrims. The reason that this particular feast is referenced as the first Thanksgiving feast is because it is the first feast held by a Christian people giving thanks to God for the general bounty that he had provided in America. And regardless of your opinion of the good or bad that has come of it, since the English speaking immigrants from Europe have become the dominant culture of the United States, it is important that it was a feast of thanksgiving by the Pilgrims.
Turkey, anyone?
Another myth that concerns what actually happened at the first Thanksgiving (which I will continue to call it, myth or no) but which is exceedingly silly is the question of whether the Pilgrims and the Native Americans had turkey at that feast. The HNN article says: "No one knows if they had turkey, although they were used to eating turkey. The only food we know they had for sure was deer." While my Thanksgiving celebration will not hinge on knowing exactly what the Pilgrims feasted upon, I do find it interesting that this myth should be allegedly debunked by an admission that no one knows the full menu of what was eaten. In fact, we have good reason to believe that turkeys may have been on the menu based upon William Bradford's account of what was happening around that same time in his book Of Plimoth Plantation where Bradford says:
They began now to gather in the small harvest they had, and to fit up their houses and dwellings against winter, being all well recovered in health and strength and had all things in good plenty. For as some were thus employed in affairs abroad, others were exercised in fishing, about cod and bass and other fish, of which they took good store, of which every family had their portion. All the summer there was no want; and now began to come in store of fowl, as winter approached, of which this place did abound when they came first (but afterward decreased by degrees). And besides waterfowl there was great store of wild turkeys, of which they took many, besides venison, etc. Besides, they had about a peck of meal a week to a person, or now since harvest, Indian corn to that proportion. Which made many afterwards write so largely of their plenty here to their friends in England, which were not feigned but true reports.
So, if the Pilgrims had a "great store" of wild turkeys, why would one suspect that they would withhold them from the general feast? (This is pure speculation, but perhaps historians are going with the "what we expect to find if X happened theory." For example, historians certainly say that if turkeys had been served at the first Thanksgiving, then Edward Winslow's earlier account would have included them on the list of items served. In a similar way, perhaps historians note that if turkey had been served at the 1621 feast, we would expect to find records of complaint about turkey leftovers, but these are notably absent from the histories.)
Giving thanks to God isn't religious?
But the most egregious myths are those directed at the Christian motivation of the Pilgrims. They claim ulterior motives for the Pilgrims than those that have historically (ironically) been believed. For example, HNN article claims that Thanksgiving was not about religion. (Actually, I agree it was not about "religion", but I suspect that he would lump into the "religion" category the heartfelt desire to give thanks to God for his bounty so let's go with it.) The HNN article argues:
Paraphrasing the answer provided above, if Thanksgiving had been about religion, the Pilgrims never would have invited the Indians to join them. Besides, the Pilgrims would never have tolerated festivities at a true religious event. Indeed, what we think of as Thanksgiving was really a harvest festival. Actual "Thanksgivings" were religious affairs; everybody spent the day praying. Incidentally, these Pilgrim Thanksgivings occurred at different times of the year, not just in November.
Jeremy Bangs, another historian and former Chief Curator of the Plimouth Plantation, responds in his article entitled The Truth About Thanksgiving Is that the Debunkers Are Wrong:
Responding to this in reverse order:
(1) that Thanksgivings were not limited to November does not mean that the first one held by the colonists in Plymouth (presumably in September or early October) was not a thanksgiving.
(2) The modern idea that in a religious thanksgiving "everyone spent the day praying" is inconsistent with the only description of the specific activities of a definitely identified thanksgiving day in early Plymouth Colony -- the thanksgiving held in Scituate in 1636 when a religious service was followed by feasting. (See my book The Seventeenth-Century Town Records of Scituate, Massachusetts (Boston: NEHGS, 2001), vol. 3, p. 513.)
(3) That "what we think of as Thanksgiving was really a harvest festival" (as if that meant it could not have been a thanksgiving) repeats Deetz's incorrect opinion that an English harvest festival was non-religious or even irreligious.
(4) That the Pilgrims "would never have tolerated festivities at a true religious event" presumes a narrow definition of what a true religious event was before arriving through circular argument at a denial that what the Pilgrims did was such an event, because it differed from the axiomatic definition. (Ever been to a midwestern church picnic? Did tossing horseshoes and playing softball make it non-religious?)
(5) The Pilgrims attempted to pattern their religious activities according to biblical precedent. The precedent for a harvest festival was the Feast of Tabernacles, Sukkoth (Deut. 16: 13-14), lasting seven days. The biblical injunction to include the "stranger" probably accounts for the Pilgrims' inviting their Native neighbors to rejoice with them. Besides Sukkoth, the Pilgrims' experience of a Reformed Protestant thanksgiving every year in Leiden probably contributed to what they considered appropriate. The October 3 festivities commemorated the lifting of the Siege of Leiden in 1574, when half the town had died (an obvious parallel with the experience of the Pilgrims in the winter of 1620-21). Leiden's ten-day festivity began with a religious service of thanksgiving and prayer, followed by meals, military exercises, games, and a free fair. The common assumption that the Pilgrims' 1621 event should be judged against the forms taken by later Puritan thanksgivings - whether or not those are even correctly understood - overlooks the circumstance that the Pilgrims did not have those precedents when they attempted something new, intentionally based not on old English tradition but on biblical and Reformed example.
Welcoming guests, invited or no
The Deconstructing article (which is extremely negative towards the Pilgrims who are accused therein of stealing corn from the natives without restitution and coming to America to take the lands already inhabited) claims that the Pilgrims didn't invite the natives to the feast.
According to oral accounts from the Wampanoag people, when the Native people nearby first heard the gunshots of the hunting colonists, they thought that the colonists were preparing for war and that Massasoit needed to be informed. When Massasoit showed up with 90 men and no women or children, it can be assumed that he was being cautious. When he saw there was a party going on, his men then went out and brought back five deer and lots of turkeys. (8)
In addition, both the Wampanoag and the English settlers were long familiar with harvest celebrations. Long before the Europeans set foot on these shores, Native peoples gave thanks every day for all the gifts of life, and held thanksgiving celebrations and giveaways at certain times of the year. The Europeans also had days of thanksgiving, marked by religious services. So the coming together of two peoples to share food and company was not entirely a foreign thing for either. But the visit that by all accounts lasted three days was most likely one of a series of political meetings to discuss and secure a military alliance. Neither side totally trusted the other: The Europeans considered the Wampanoag soulless heathens and instruments of the devil, and the Wampanoag had seen the Europeans steal their seed corn and rob their graves. In any event, neither the Wampanoag nor the Europeans referred to this feast/meeting as "Thanksgiving." (9)
First, let's be clear: there is no record of the Pilgrims inviting the natives to the feast. Here's what Edward Winslow's account says about the natives:
they four in one day killed as much fowl, as with a little help beside, served the Company almost a week, at which time amongst other Recreations, we exercised our Arms, many of the Indians coming amongst us, and amongst the rest their greatest king Massasoit, with some ninety men, whom for three days we entertained and feasted, and they went out and killed five Deer, which they brought to the Plantation and bestowed on our Governor, and upon the Captain and others. And although it be not always so plentiful, as it was at this time with us, yet by the goodness of God, we are so far from want, that we often wish you partakers of our plenty."
Keep in mind that this account and William Bradford's later more general account in Of Plimouth Plantation are, according to the Plimouth Plantation, the "only" two "primary sources for the events of autumn 1621 in Plymouth." Thus, we don't know how the natives came to be among the Pilgrims. Certainly, it is possible that they were attracted by the gunshots (and such a claim is consistent with the Winslow's account which associates the "exercise[] of our Arms" with the arrival of the native peoples).
At the same time, the basis for the claim that the natives thought that the Pilgrims were preparing for war as stated in the Deconstructing article is fairly flimsy. The claim is based upon a nearly 400 year old apparently unrecorded oral tradition which comes to the authors through a National Geographic publication for kids. As near as I can find in Internet research, this claim is not made in any of Ms. Bruchac's articles which are available on-line. The idea that only men arrived is consistent with Winslow's account but may be accounted for by the practice at the time (in our admittedly male-centered past) was to speak of the men and not the women and children.
Still, it is apparent that regardless of how the natives arrived and for what reason, they were invited to participate in the feast and did so for three days -- including providing deer for the festivities. But here's the bigger issue: were the natives most likely invited for political purposes, i.e., for "one of a series of political meetings to discuss and secure a military alliance"? What evidence is there that the Pilgrims had less than charitable motives at this time? They were having a celebration of the bounty that God had bestowed and admitted that the natives had assisted their survival through the hard, cruel winter and assistance in farming and hunting methods.
Obviously there was mistrust between the two peoples. The Pilgrims were originally quite frightened by the natives who they expected to attack them. The Wampanoag (in the words of the Deconstructing article article) "had seen the Europeans steal their seed corn and rob their graves." But this viewpoint tends to disregard the fact that friendly gestures based on a true Christian motive of love for neighbors could overcome these initial obstacles. In other words, the real motivation that should be questioned is the motivation of the people who make claims that the Pilgrims had to have some ulterior motives in welcoming the natives to their Thanksgiving feast.
So what's at the core?
Certainly, the truth claims of Christianity do not rise or fall on the story of the First Thanksgiving. But I think that we can say that the debunkers have not really successfully struck at the heart of the account: the Pilgrims, thankful to God for their survival and the bounty of harvest (helped in large part by the Wampanoag natives), held a feast to give thanks to God. During the feast, which lasted three days, the Wampanoags arrived and were welcomed in Christian charity and fellowship to the feast by the Pilgrims. The Wampanoags not only accepted, they hunted and brought additional provisions to make the feast even better. Yes, the relationship fell apart (largely due to the later influx of settlers with more profit than the teaching of the Great Prophet in mind), but for this one small sliver of history, Christian settlers, practicing Christian love for their neighbors consistent with their beliefs and the Wampanoags, apparently acting in friendship towards the settlers, co-existed in friendship.
That (together with the expected annual drubbing of the Detroit Lions) is something to celebrate.

Eight Tips to Prepare for Your Next Interview
A human resources director gives you eight tips to ace your next interview.
Being selected for an interview is a successful leap across a major hurdle in your job hunt. By the time a company selects your resume from the many it has received, it is serious about the possibility of hiring you. That means it's very important that you put your best foot forward. Following are eight tips from a human resources director for a successful interview.
- Take a phone interview seriously. Many companies begin with a telephone interview to screen for the top applicants to interview in person. When you're selected, make sure you have the right time and phone number. Have a quiet place in your home to chat—no TV, kids, or pets. Remember that your voice can reveal much about you. Smiling while talking on the phone conveys that you are a relaxed, friendly person.
- Be prepared. Once you're invited to an in-person interview, double check the date, time, and location. Know the names of the people with whom you will be speaking and find out if it's a group interview. Bring extra copies of your resume, just in case.
- First impressions count. Remember you're selling the whole package, not just your job skills. Dress, grooming, and overall appearance are extremely important. Wear something you like and feel comfortable and confident in.
- Do your homework. Study the organization's website to learn as much as you can. Behave during the interview in such a way that you appear knowledgeable without seeming like an overeager student. Bring work samples or ideas for the job that will help the employer get a sense of how you would approach it if you were hired.
- Ask questions. Ask about the organization culture, work, and mission. Talk with the interviewers as if they are fascinating people you're meeting for the first time whom you want to know better. (This approach works in job interviews just as it does in social settings.)
- Be aware of body language. Body language is just as important as your actual speech. Ask a friend to help diagnose any negative habits you have when you're stressed so you can avoid them. Playing with your hair or pen, saying things like "And, uh…," or sitting in a tense position make you look unsure of yourself. Make eye contact with everyone in the room, not just those you perceive as the decision makers.
- Acknowledge everyone in the office. You are interviewing with everyone you meet in the workspace, not just those in the interview room. Show that you are considerate and interested. I usually ask our receptionist her opinion of our applicants.
- Follow up. Collect business cards or names of those present. Shake hands as you leave. Email them that day. Follow up with an actual written thank-you note, at least to the human resources director and the hiring manager.
Good luck! Your job is out there waiting for you.

"Now, what's happening?" Gabriel asked as Amarantine passed two mugs from the microwave and poured coffee for Dawn and himself.
"Well" Amarantine sighed. "All the portal to the other planes have been closed down even the teleport network has been blocked Gabriel heard Dawn's low growl.
"Your mother" Amarantine said.
"Hang on the others need to hear this too" Gabriel said he helped Lewis into the lounge and Amarantine sat down and repeated everything that had already been said.
"Aura will stop at nothing to find you all" Amarantine continued "she has help everywhere angels, daemons even wolves"
"So nowhere is safe?" Gabriel growled.
"There have been safe houses for years Gabriel, in case something like this happened"
"How could anyone have anticipated this?" Sylver growled
"I couldn't" Amarantine sighed. "Nothing on this scale which is why I've shut down every portal I can"
"And I can't even get to the underworld to check everyone" Dawn growled
"I can t make exceptions" Amarantine said
"But how can you block a teleport?" Sylver asked.
"Most magick works on frequencies" Amarantine started.
"What?" Gabriel and a few of the others questioned.
"Levels of magick depend on what the magick is and who is using it. Dawn and Aura both use the same level and type of magick when teleporting." Amarantine explained. "As do any other beings that can teleport"
"You have to be specific with a teleport" Dawn grumbled. "You can just think 'I want to be in the Underworld' or you could wind up anywhere in the Underworld including two hundred feet in the air. You have to specify."
"So mother could say she wanted to be standing next to Gabriel?" Sylver asked.
"Theoretically, yes" Amarantine said.
"Which means she was playing games with us, all the time she was chasing us" Gabriel snarled.
"No" Dawn said putting a hand on the vampyres shoulder. "Teleports use up a lot of magick especially when you have passengers. She wouldn't have been stupid enough to land in the middle of us alone and taking the angels would have wiped her magick out" he squeezed Gabriel's shoulder gently.
"So what do we do?" Allegra spoke up.
"We go to Holehallow" Dawn said
"For how long?" Gabriel growled
"As long as it takes to work out what to do. Or until she gives up"
"So we work out what to do" Gabriel said "she'll never give up"
"And neither should you" Amarantine said smiling at Gabriel.
"And what about you Am?" Dawn said "will you come with us?"
"Not yet" Amarantine said "I still have things to do but I will join you there soon"

Benefits nearly a third of compensation in manufacturing
June 29, 1999
Health insurance, paid leave, Social Security, and other benefits together accounted for close to a third of the compensation received by manufacturing employees in March 1999. Legally required benefits such as Social Security were the largest of all the benefits.
[Chart data—TXT]
Overall, 31.2 percent of manufacturing compensation in March 1999 was in the form of benefits. Social Security and other legally required benefits represented 8.5 percent of total compensation. Paid leave accounted for 7.6 percent of compensation in manufacturing and health insurance for 6.9 percent.
In contrast, workers in industries outside of manufacturing received only about a quarter of their compensation in benefits. In March 1999, benefits comprised 25.9 percent of nonmanufacturing compensation. The percent of compensation from legally required benefits was slightly higher in nonmanufacturing than in manufacturing, at 8.7 percent. For each of the other benefits in the chart, the percent was lower for nonmanufacturing workers.
These data are a product of the BLS Employment Cost Trends program. Additional information is available from "Employer Costs for Employee Compensation, March 1999," news release USDL 99-173. Figures in chart do not sum to 100.0 percent due to rounding.

Actress Kangana Ranaut's lawyer has termed the emails submitted by actor Hrithik Roshan to the cyber crime investigation cell of Mumbai Police as "out-of-context, unreliable and unverified" but his lawyers fought back, asking what purpose were they fighting for.
"We know our client is fighting for clearing his name but we are unclear what they are fighting for? Is the fight from their end only to establish 'implied' association with our client?" said Hrithik's lawyers in a statement.
"For us this fight is a worthy cause because our client is fighting to save his reputation as he was brutally attacked and unbelievable lies were circulated with impunity. But we fail to understand the motivation of the other party. We have already submitted all the evidences that are required to the authorities. We have been dutifully following the procedure and the truth will come out," the statement said.
"They are trying to confuse the matter when this is a simple case of spreading lies. If by their own admission they haven't referred to our client, Hrithik Roshan, as 'silly ex' and if by that they are meaning that he hasn't had a romantic relationship with their client, then there is no fight between us. But they have been slyly implying things and we are committed to bring clarity to the entire episode," the statement read.
Ms Ranaut's advocate Rizwan Siddiquee said "By circulating some out-of-context unreliable and unverified emails to the media together with some unreliable private forensic reports", Hrithik had "finally proved that he has lost complete trust in the legal system as well as patience and shall go to any extent to cause damage to my client's name, image and reputation and instill fear in her mind".
Ms Ranaut and Mr Roshan reportedly dated after starring in the films Kites and Krrish 3. Hrithik Roshan's lawyers claim they have evidence that the alleged affair never happened and that Ms Ranaut is stalling the police investigation. Mr Roshan sent Ms Ranaut a legal notice in March after she appeared to refer to him as a 'silly ex' in an interview.

Angel Amongst Women
The love a man has for a woman who is an Angel Amongst Women
Angel Amongst Women
Gazing, deep into her gorgeous eyes, losing myself in their wondrous beauty, I belatedly realize, she is, slowly leaning her head toward me, gazing at me, with half closed eyes. As time seems to slow to a snail's pace, I slowly, lean my head toward her, filled with a blissful numbness as I realize, what I've wanted for a long time is about to happen. And just before our lips meet...I wake up, and sadly
realize, it was, but the sweet torture known as a dream. Sadly sighing, I get up, and get ready. Thinking over the angel amongst women, whom I care so deeply about, knowing, that my dreams, will remain just that. After all, why, would she, who could have almost any guy she wanted, want me, an insect amongst men. However, I cannot still the rapid beating of my heart, at the thought of my dream, of an angel, amongst women.
I cannot focus on schoolwork, which seems incredibly dull, in comparison to what I am thinking about. Her. Her laugh, that I would do almost anything to hear. Her smile, that I would give almost anything to see. Her elegant, beauty. And her beautiful eyes, that I could easily lose myself in.
But that is just her outer beauty, which pales in comparison to her inner beauty, as the darkness of the new moon, pales in comparison to the brightness of the sun. Her kindness, her caring, her gentleness. Her passion, toward the things she loves, and her controlled ambition. Her intelligence. Her willingness to work hard. Her happy nature. Her dislike of hurting others. Her respectfulness toward herself, and others. Her desire to help others. And her emotional strength. Everything that makes her, an angel, amongst women.
Sighing sadly, knowing, she'll never be more than a good friend, though she is, one of my closest friends....and the knowledge of the fact, that she doesn't consider me to be more than an acquaintance, and even that being born from pity. Knowing that if she were to know everything about
me that I've done, that she would avoid me like the most horrible of plagues. Snorting derisively at the idiocy of my thinking, that she, who could have almost any guy she wanted, would want a loser, like me, who is an insect, amongst men. But none of that matters. What matters, is if she's happy. If she is happy with someone, then I will do everything I can, to make sure that happiness stays, that she is with whoever will make her happy, as long as they do so. Despite it ripping my heart to shreds, if will help her, be with whoever she would be happy with, as her happiness, means more to me, than my own, after all, I care so much for her, and my happiness, the happiness of an insect, amongst men, is nothing,
in comparison, to her happiness, the happiness, of an angel, amongst women.

I borrowed money from 500fastcash.com of $300.00 and the agreement was that they would take money out of my account until the $300.00 was paid. They took the $110 dollars that I owed out in August, now they still are taking money out of my account.
I cannot afford them to keep taking money out of my account due to I have bills to pay. They short me money for my bills.
If my account doesn't have money in it I get charged with overdrafts because they take money out of my account. These people need to be stopped so I can go on with my life without worring about money problems.

I Have Probably Watched Jaws Far Too Many Times
Personal Stories, Advice, and Support 13 People
SharkI was probably semi obsessed with that movie. I used to watch it every other day. I don't know what kind of fascination and hold that shark had over me. I just was intrigued by it.
AwesomeAngel 22-25, F 1 Response 1 Mar 31, 2012
Late Nights With Man-eatersI don't know when this started, maybe sometime in college, but for whatever reason, every so often I'll stay up all night to watch Jaws. Several nights in a row. I don't think it's the greatest movie ever made, but it has a certain appeal and stability that keeps bringing me back...

His kitten can be very stubborn. VERY.
So he's leaning over the edge of his bed, still half asleep around three in the morning when he would have awoken at two because Thank God the Second in Command let me have a day off these new training regimes are really starting to kick me in the butt and he's going to be in hell for another 72 hours if he cannot get the torn tendon in his leg to heal correctly. He needs to recharge his battery before he can rip the tendon off again and fix it though, or he'll surely release too much energy and end up burning part of himself out of existence. That would likely mean he'd lose a leg (or have to regrow the whole thing) in order to stop the spread of dissolving.
Being unbalanced could have it's disadvantages.
For a moment, the fuzzy memory of being chained to a wall and beaten senseless rises in the back of his mind. He shoves it down under the fog of slumber, grimacing subconsciously.
He directs his mind to a different thought, the one that has his sleep-addled brain realizing that he's only wearing his battle gear bottoms. He really should change out of them, considering that these are his last clean pair, since he hasn't gotten around to laundry. Or eating. But this is his first time sleeping in four days! He wants to reconnect with his bed! The pillows are practically begging him to sleep on them.
Okay, maybe he's dramatizing a bit, because he's not even lying on them, with his head hanging upside-down, knees bent at odd angles, legs tangled in the bed sheets, one arm thrown over his eyes.
"Mewww!" Comes a tiny, fierce roar.
He's so tired, he convinces himself he's having one of those dreams influenced by all the things that have gone on in the day. He fed Hazer this morning, and the little grey kitten had given him that cheerful wail. That's all.
Never mind the fact that this wail was more of listen to me I want to be petted and loved! than it was thank you for feeding me I love you forever!
Claws prick into the skin of his chest, and, with a startled cry, he gives off a burst of energy that has him and Hazer transported underneath his beloved's bed.
Well, there goes the last of my reserve... He goes to stand, still out of sorts thanks to his sleepiness, not thinking clearly thanks to Hazer's loving claw attack.
Bumping his head on the frame, he blinks down at the kitten, now curled up smugly on his collarbone. He sighs as he adjusts his shoulders, deciding to wait until he's better rested to transport himself back--because, yes, he is that lazy right now. So, with his long legs stretched out from under the bed, he snuggles up on his boyfriend's floor, inhaling his scent and some rather stale air, more than happy to nap under there.
Being unbalanced could have greater advantages.

Several million people ride the New York City subway system every single day. As you might imagine, it's not quite the picture of cleanliness. According to research conducted in 2007 and 2008 by biologists from the University of Colorado, 15% of the matter analyzed in New York City subway system air consisted of human skin. Most of this skin came from the heads and heels of riders, but smaller portions originated from riders' belly buttons, ears, underarms, and rear ends.
The air is just one place to find pollutants in the subway. Christopher Mason of Cornell University tested samples from every subway station in New York City to map the bacteria. His study, published in 2015, states that traces of disease like the bubonic plague, meningitis, and staph infections were present. "Our data show evidence that most bacteria in these densely populated, highly trafficked transit areas are neutral to human health, and much of it is commonly found on the skin or in the gastrointestinal tract," Mason said. "These bacteria may even be helpful, since they can out-compete any dangerous bacteria." Watch the video below to learn more about Mason's research.

Tumblr would like to buy other companies.
Adam Rifkin stashed this in Tumblr!
Stashed in:
First time I've seen Tumblr revenue numbers: $13 million in 2012.
Nicholas Carlson explains why Tumblr is fundraising in 2013:
Tumblr last raised money in 2011, at an $800 million valuation. It's raised $125 million total.
Tumblr, which is ad-supported, generated $13 million in revenues in 2012. It spent $25 million during 2012.
Both figures are according to Forbes, which also says Tumblr will spend about $40 million this year, when it hopes to be profitable.
We're told by one of our sources — a source close to Tumblr — that Tumblr doesn't need to raise more money, but that it has gotten so much inbound interest from firms asking "what would it take," that it finally decided to come up with an answer.
This source tells us that another reason Tumblr is considering raising more money is that it would like to be able to acquire companies.
The source says Twitter's acquisition of Blue Fin labs earlier this year was the kind of deal Tumblr would like to be able to do.
I feel bad for investors who want to invest in Tumblr but can't get in.
There's really no other company like Tumblr out there except Pinterest maybe.
Tumblr hopes to do $100 million in revenue in 2013.

Wilmington native Jonathan Cooper has been hard at work getting used to his new digs and taking reps along the offensive line for the New England Patriots. Ryan Hannable covers the Patriots for WEEI.com in Boston and caught up with the Hoggard High School alum after practice this past week.
Being the No. 7 overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft, it hasn't been the greatest start to a career for offensive lineman Jonathan Cooper.
The 26-year-old couldn't seem to fit in with the Cardinals as he started just 11 games over the last three seasons. He battled toe and wrist injuries last season with the Cardinals moving him around on the interior line.
Overall, Cooper has played in just 24 games in the NFL so he is still relatively new to the league, despite his age and being a former top-10 pick.
With Cooper's trade, along with a second-round pick, to the Patriots this offseason for Chandler Jones, this year could be viewed as a fresh start with a new team. But Cooper didn't want to go down that road.

Yesterday's eviction, carried out shortly after 6am, was the second time in three days the Africans had felt the force of the French law. They were part of a larger group that had been forcibly removed from the nearby church of St Ambroise on Friday morning after an occupation lasting almost a week. Both operations involved almost 1,000 police, including a large contingent of CRS riot troops.
After the outcry caused by Friday's eviction, and its only partial effectiveness, yesterday's operation was personally overseen by Philippe Massoni, the Paris police chief who was responsible for the anti-terrorist measures in the French capital last summer and autumn.
What initially seemed a straightforward action against illegal immigrants, of the sort pledged by the government of President Jacques Chirac when he became President, has given rise to a controversy.
The first to become embroiled were Church leaders, after it became known that the priest at St Ambroise had requested the first eviction order "on grounds of sanitation and health", and that he had had the support of the Cardinal Archbishop of Paris, Jean- Marie Lustiger.
Mgr Lustiger had visited the Africans only a day before their eviction and had reportedly expressed his support. The second to face criticism were the police, for the heavy-handedness of the first operation, its limited success and its dubious legality.
Local magistrates who questioned the legal basis of the eviction warrant yesterday freed 40 members of the group in custody pending deportation. The magistrates found the police had acted illegally by mounting their operation in the church before 6am.
The row has extended now to the government, with the Prime Minister, Alain Juppe, being accused by the veteran Paris campaigner for the homeless, Abbe Pierre, of acting in bad faith. The abbe, who has been involved in the Africans' case since the start of the protest, said Mr Juppe had given him an undertaking that there would be no action by the police against the group after the eviction from St Ambroise.
After yesterday's police raid, the cleric said that either Mr Juppe had not kept his word, or that he did not know what his ministers were doing, "in which case he lacks authority and should go".

I have an interview for I751 next month at Tukwila USCIS office. My spouse wont be there with me because he is out of the country right now. And then, we still together but live in different cities due to my work. will it be a problem? what question will they ask? we didnt hire an attorney, we filed all of the paperwork on our own
Ideally you should have sought a postponement. Either way, it is unlikely that the IO will approve the petition without a joint interview.

You need to be prepared with a great deal of evidence, especially since you don't live together. It is not impossible to get approved but not easy--even if he were attending. You need to prove the impossiblity if his attending. They may reschedule. An experienced immigration lawyer is a good idea in this situation. It will be less expensive than having to salvage it if it is denied
This reply is intended only as general information and does not constitute legal advice in any particular case. This reply does not create an attorney/client relationship.Ask a similar question
The mere fact that you are being called to an interview shows there is a problem with your application, despite having filed it jointly.
The smartest thing to do now is to seek a postponement with the local district office and use the extra time wisely to secure the services of a competent immigration attorney to prepare you for the questions you'll be facing at the interview, as well as to accompany you there and most importantly to push the case to a happy ending after the interview. You alone will never succeed and will most likely end posting questions on Avvo for years to come.. USCIS simply does not pay any attention to unrepresented applicants, especially so in unconventional cases like yours.. If you are smart you'll understand. If on the other hand you only think you are smart, then I will continue to see your questions on Avvo for a very long time..
Behar Intl. Counsel 619.234.5962 Kindly be advised that the answer above is only general in nature cannot be construed as legal advice, given that not enough facts are known.

On Friday, March 9, the University of the Cumberlands (UC) Patriots and the St. Catharine College Patriots baseball teams partnered together in an effort to help the people affected by the tornado damage that occurred throughout Kentucky recently.
Although fierce competitors on the diamond, the two teams decided to come together to lend support to the East Bernstadt area and the families that desperately are searching for relief. Both schools are within 80 miles of East Bernstadt with students that are attending both institutions from the area.
Brooklyn Gaddie killed her first turkey on April 7. It weighed 21 pounds, had a 10-inch beard and one-inch spurs. She is the daughter of Greg and Jill Gaddie.

The Marion County High School varsity baseball team played in two games this past week, hosting West Jessamine on March 26 at Dave Hourigan Field, and going on the road March 28 to take on LaRue County. The March 26 game was suspended in extra innings with the score 2-2, and the Knights lost the game against LaRue County 11-0, taking the team's overall record to 3-4 heading into the Green County Wood Bat Invitational.
Knights vs. LaRue County
The Marion County High School Knights varsity baseball team competed in the Green County Wood Bat Tournament over the weekend. By going 2-1 in the tournament, the Knights secured a third place finish. After a couple of wins, and a loss the team now sits at 5-5 overall.
The Marion County Knights tennis team competed in three matches last week, taking on Adair County and Nelson County at home on Monday and Tuesday, and traveling to Bethlehem Thursday night. They went 3-0 on the week.
The Knights have no matches this week due to Spring Break.
Thursday, the Knights defeated the Bethlehem Eagles, 5-0.
In singles action, Noah Swencki defeated Bethlehem's Riley Coots, 6-0, 6-0. Marion County's Alex Spalding won his match against Adam Rogers, 6-1, 6-0. Ryker Cassidy beat Jessie Plouvier, 6-0, 6-0.
Well, the big game is over.
With all the anticipation leading up to the game, I'm almost sad to see it be over. Of course, the game I am referring to was the battle of the Bluegrass between Kentucky and Louisville. As we all know, the Wildcats pulled out the eight-point victory much to the pleasure of most likely the biggest Kentucky fan I know, Bobby Joe Farmer.

Thursday night, the team went on the road to play Bethlehem, where they came away with the relatively easy win. The Lady Knights defeated Bethlehem, 4-1.
In singles competition, Taylor Corbett defeated Abby Moore, 6-2, 6-2, Alyssa Farmer took down Asuki Sekiguchi, 6-2, 6-3, and Allie Evans defeated Tori Walter, 6-1, 6-0.
Our Mid-Kentucky Bass Anglers April Fool's Day Tournament on Green River was interesting.
At our 8 a.m. launch, the weather was a little cooler than it's been and it was overcast. As the day progressed it got just plain nasty looking.
A dark wall cloud moved in bringing a steady wind and some small rollers. It actually got to the point that John and I found an open spot at the state dock, pulled in under a roofed slip, tied off and waited to see what was going to happen.

The Vampiric Lair
Idiotic dick walks into a dark, damp freaky cave and gets lost. Guess what happens next...
Lights were shining and mesmerising, the music was deafening and the people were pissed, pissing, dancing and shagging, all in the middle of the floor. Harry, a seventeen year old teenager, was one of the people who were pissed and dancing. a bottle of bear in one hand and a shot glass in the other.
He stumbled out of the club to piss outside. The club was on the edge of a cliff and Harry thought it would be OK if he pissed off the edge. Then John, Harrys brother, came outside to see where Harry was. He saw Harry and, not realising that he was on the edge of the cliff, thought it would be funnyif he rugby tackled Harry while he was pissing.
He did. So you can probably guess what happened.
