Super Gamer Dude
Xbox 360
This edition differs from the standard edition by having quite substantial, nearly three hours, footage of daring SAS actions and interviews with former SAS personnel, all this being well worth seeing more than once if you can drag yourself away from the game. There is also added material such as game walkthroughs and game history.
As for the game itself, it is a single player action game absolutely packed with thrills and a lot of really unexpected moments. The audio is of high quality and the visual presentation is terrific, however, the shortness of the campaign is unusual for an average first person shooter, though this is not a major problem. This Modern Warfare story looks better on the screen than the previous versions of Call of Duty. As to the above mentioned campaign shortness, anybody who is used to this kind of game can probably finish it in six hours or less, way too short for me, leaving the player wanting more from a game as good as this. It deserves better but it is still worth playing.
Having complained about the shortness of the campaigns, you can of course extend it a little if you decide to raise the overall difficulty of the game by giving yourself more difficult challenges against more dangerous adversaries, also making the game a little more entertaining than it already is. The story in this game is told from multiple perspectives. You can play as US Marine and British SAS operatives in a campaign that takes you from a rainy night at the sea, on a boat that is in the process of sinking, to a secret missile store, and it is up to you to save millions of people from the imminent nuclear-powered death. There are many difficult moments along the way in this artificial but realistic world that is filled with war. The action all through is straightforward and comes with a compass at the bottom of the screen that shows the direction to take to where your objective is situated. In spite of this you will find that moving from one point to another is not as easy as running in a straight line.
You will conduct huge assaults in the Middle East and you will be moving from house to house as you take out a never ending stream of enemy troops along the way. In this game up to eighteen players can get online and get into a match in 16 different scenarios. The actions are varied and in some levels you find yourself fighting in restricted spaces and cramped positions where grenades and shotguns are the order of the day. There are many modes which you can choose from, all of which, besides requiring the firing of high tech weapons and tossing of grenades, needs the use of brain power to undertake tactical moves to gain points. Under certain circumstances you are able to involve a UAV drone which has upgraded radar that makes the enemy positions show up on your screen map show for a limited time. Regardless of the mode you are in, there is always something to keep you on your toes and fully occupied.
If you like a first person shooter multiplayer, then Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is one for your wish list. With the added SAS footage it's well worth the money.

Space lifts are science fiction right?
Correct. That's where the idea grew famous. But now a Japanese construction company called Obayashi Corp. has vowed to build a lift by 2050 that traverses the 36,000km to space. thisx is also the builder of the world's tallest self-supporting tower, The Tokyo Sky Tree.
Anything that tall will cripple under its own weight though.
The solution here are carbon nanotubes. These will be used to build the cables for the lift as they are 20 times stronger than steel. And they'll need to be as they'll stretch 96,000km – a quarter of the way to the moon – where the counterweight will be placed to support the terminal station at 36,000km.
The proposed car will travel at 200km/h using magnetic motors and carrying up to 30 people. So for the travelers accessing the laboratories and living spaces, they'll have a seven and a half day journey.
Will anybody be able to get a go?
The proposed plan appears to be to use the terminal station for scientists to live and work, meaning it's unlikely it'll be open to the public. Mind you, it isn't expected to open until 2050. Power will be sent down from solar generators that can absorb huge amounts of sun from outside the atmosphere. So early is this in its planning stages, there isn't even a cost estimate yet, which means it'll be fittingly high.
Our opinion
As fascinating as it sounds, we'll be treating this with a few grains of salt until we see concrete evidence this will go ahead. Meantime, the topic is spawning some reasonably entertaining discussions such as this one about the prospect of spending a week travelling in a space elevator.

Avenged Sevenfold frontman talks influences on new album
Listen to Avenged Sevenfold on iHeartRadio
Avenged Sevenfold frontman M. Shadows says the band's latest album has a "twist" thanks to new drummer Arin Ilejay.
Arin is about seven years younger than the rest of the band, which brought some new influences into the group when it came time to record their first full album with the newcomer behind the kit.
But Shadows tells "Billboard" they're not trying to reinvent the wheel with the new set, explaining that they just want to "put a different flavor on the music." He says they're all "big believers in metal with a foot in the blues," adding that many people would probably be surprised to hear that they consider Elton John and the Beatles among their influences.
Fans can hear Avenged Sevenfold's unique mix on their sixth studio effort, Hail to the King, which arrives in stores today.

text: What i mean is this. The original UVs are overlapped, so my 3d artist exported the same fbx with another set of UVs that don't overlap (the overlapping ones are still there). so i thought that i could map the atlas based on the same original textures but using the second set of UVs (since the first ones overlap). I have already checked in the source files (although js is not my favourite) and found a function called ModifyUv (line 489 of BatchingTools.js) and i figured out that if the is something that can be done it could be done in here. is all this possible? The tool actually works great, but i overlooked the "non overlapping UV" thing. I really need to get this working without forcing my 3D guys to remake all the textures.

Police: Man threatens to kill wife over cat litter
Published: Sunday, August 25, 2013 at 5:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, August 25, 2013 at 5:46 p.m.
PALM COAST — A Central Florida man is facing an assault charge after allegedly threatening to kill his wife over dirty cat litter.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal (http://bit.ly/140R5hv ) reports that police arrested Avelino Urbano Garon after an argument with his wife turned violent.
Authorities say the couple had been arguing over whose responsibility it was to change the cat litter when Garon threatened to throw their cat against the wall. He then picked up a knife and threatened to kill his wife, police say.
Deputies say the 59-year-old Garon told them he believes a wife is responsible for cleaning the litter box. He was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and later released on $1,000 bond.

File this under cool news.
SGI's Big Brain Computer has created a Global Twitter Heartbeat, allowing the supercomputer to analyze the Twitter stream for sentiment and geolocation to create a Twitter heartbeat telling us how the world is feeling based on emotions communicated via Twitter. Not only is this a cool undertaking by the folks at SGI, but we're proud to announce that it is powered by Gnip's decahose Twitter stream.
To make this happen, SGI partnered with Kalev H. Leetaru of the University of Illinois and Dr. Shaowen Wang of the CyberInfrastructure and Geospatial Information (CIGI) Laboratory at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
This isn't just some simple stream. The SGI supercomputer analyzes every Tweet to assign location (not just GPS-tagged tweets, but processing the text of the Tweet itself) and tone values, then visualizing the conversation in a heat map that puts Tweet location, Tweet density and tone into a unified geospatial perspective. The entire process from ingestion to data analysis to producing the heat map runs at a speed that allows visualization of a map frame per second.
To see it live, check out SGI's Facebook page.
You can also see videos of the Twitter Heartbeat for the Presidential Elections and Hurricane Sandy.

College notes
University Historian named National Humanities Center Fellow
University of South Carolina associate professor of history Dr. Thomas Lekan has been named a National Humanities Center Fellow for the 2009 – 10 academic year. Lekan is among 32 distinguished scholars from institutions in the United States and abroad to be named a fellow.
Lekan will conduct research on green tourism in Germany. Specifically, he will study how the popular 20th-century German nature conservation led to outdoor leisure among the masses and, ultimately, an awareness of global dimensions of environmental problems.
"Tom Lekan's enthusiasm for research is contagious," said Dr. Lacy Ford, chairman of the university's history department. "That contagion has revealed itself in his influence on graduate and undergraduate students, as well as a number of interdisciplinary initiatives across campus, which he has organized or assisted."
Lekan is the fourth University of South Carolina scholar to be named a fellow by the NHC. Previous fellows have included Dr. Daniel Littlefield (1988 – 89), Dr. Dan Carter (1990-91) and Dr. Patricia Sullivan (2001 – 02).
"Since 2000, the university's history department has won more than a dozen of the most prestigious fellowships of this kind, including ones from the NEH and Fulbright, and faculty members have been awarded more than $12.2 million in grants. This is a record few institutions, regardless of reputation, can match," Lacy said.
The NHC is located in Research Triangle Park, N.C. This year's awards total more than $900,000. Funding is made possible by the center's endowment, grants from the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation, the Jessie Ball DuPont Fund, the National Endowment for the Humanities and by alumni contributions.
Nursing leader receives award
Dr. Peggy O. Hewlett, dean of the University of South Carolina College of Nursing, was honored as the 2009 South Carolina Nurse Leader of the Year recently during the South Carolina Nursing Excellence Conference in Columbia. The award recognizes leadership in promoting and enhancing the nursing workforce, improving professionalism, improving the work environment for nurses and improving retention and recruitment of nurses for South Carolina.

FRANKLYN SQUARE, NY -- Central Distributing Co., which specializes in the sale and service of amusement equipment, is being sold. Industry veteran Anthony Russo and son Nicholas are acquiring the Long Island distributorship from owner Ralph Scherillo. The new owners are expected to take over by Sept. 30.
Central Distributing Co. was established in 1987 when Scherillo sold the last routes of his operating company, Central Amusements. That company had run games, jukeboxes and cigarette venders in all five New York City boroughs, as well as in Long Island's Nassau and Suffolk counties. As an operator, Scherillo also provided repair services for other operators in the region, beginning with mechanical pinballs and vinyl-playing jukeboxes. Service for videogames, monitors and bill validators, along with equipment and parts sales, soon followed.
Today, Central services a wide array of bill validators, along with other electronic components for videogames and cranes. The company also sells parts and supplies, and a selection of new and used games and jukeboxes.
Scherillo is a former Navy SEAL who learned electronics as an underwater demolition expert during the Vietnam War. He will stay on with the new owners as an advisor.
Central Distributing's sales and service center is based at 1153 Hempstead Turnpike, Franklin Square, NY 11010. The company can be reached by calling (516) 488-7256.

Sunday, July 19 2009 - Legal Response to 9/11
Why a 9/11 "Plotter" Deserves a Re-Trial
By Bruce Crumley
July 19, 2009
It isn't easy to have sympathy for Frenchman Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person convicted in connection with the September 11 terror attacks. During his trial, Moussaoui pledged his allegiance to Osama bin Laden and prayed that al-Qaeda succeeds in its violent jihad against the U.S; he also mocked the families of 9/11 victims and dared the court to inflict the harshest punishment for the crimes which, after veering erratically between denial and advocacy, he finally took responsibility for. In May 2006, a jury decided against the death penalty but sent Moussaoui, now 41, to life imprisonment and near total isolation in Colorado's ADX Supermax prison.
Now Moussaoui says he regrets pleading guilty. But, he has a problem: U.S. law does not allow those who have taken that route to appeal their cases. His only shot at winning a lighter sentence is the July 14 decision by a federal appeals court in Virginia to re-hear arguments that the government had failed to turn over key evidence to Moussaoui and his lawyer that might have helped in his defense. As politically untenable as it may seem, President Barack Obama should support Moussaoui's efforts to win another trial. (Check out a story about "Bombers Row" in a Colorado's Supermax Prison.)
Why? Because justice and sympathy are different issues. Moussaoui's courtroom antics and declarations were outrageous but the prosecution of his trial was a farce nonetheless. Federal Judge Leonie Brinkema repeatedly criticized certain aspects of the prosecutors' efforts to win a guilty verdict as both underhanded and illegal. At one point in the trial, Brinkema rebuked prosecutors for illegally coaching a witness from a federal agency. She called that tampering "an egregious" and a "significant error by the government affecting the... integrity of the criminal justice system of the United States."
On one occasion Brinkema backed Moussaoui's call to cite testimony from Guantanamo prisoners and 9/11 masterminds Khaled Sheikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh for his defense. Prosecutors resisted that demand, claiming the information was classified. (Moussaoui would win the right to use parts of statements by the 9/11 puppet masters, who described the Frenchman as too erratic and unreliable to be let in on the plot.)
However, Moussaoui continued to make himself the ever-ready scapegoat in the pursuit of 9/11 justice that seemed to provide no other perpetrators to prosecute. He was, indeed, a dream come true for the prosecution. First, he fired his defense team, zigged and zagged between pleading innocent and guilty, and ranted in ways that had some observers questioning his sanity. And the circumstantial evidence against him didn't make Moussaoui look any better: he was arrested in August, 2001 while attending a Minnesota flight school. When investigators took a closer look at him after 9/11, they discovered jihadist literature and plane flying information on his computer. Further inquiry led to the discovery that Binalshibh had wired him $14,000 from Germany; a check with French officials showed that he'd long been under watch as a suspected jihadist who'd made the de rigeur trip to al-Qaeda's Afghan haven.CONTINUED HERE: http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1911560,00.html?xid=newsletter-daily

Thread: Baldy's Archery and Strings
Baldy's Archery and Strings
Introducing Baldy's Bowstrings !!!
I'd like to present Baldy's Bowstrings to the Archery Community as a competitively priced, high quality option. I've been building bowstrings and tuning bows locally for ten years now and feel they represent the highest quality string sets available with no mass production compromises. Each string set accumulates 2 hours and 10 minutes of dedicated stretch and relax time (most manufactures only stretch while serving). This is the first thing many string manufactures compromise on when they mass produce bowstrings and I guarantee I will not reduce stretching time or attention to detail. I use an extended building process which produces one of the most stable strings available. In a market where many bow manufactures factory strings are known to let ATA measurements run out 3/8" or more in a year, my strings once settled into the cam tracks hold very tight and remain stable.
These strings are also comprised of the highest quality materials available today. My default sets will consist of 24 strands of BCY Trophy in the cables and 22 strands in the string. All end and loop servings will be spun from .014 Halo. Center servings will be constructed from Angel Majesty which stays put. All you folks sick of center serving separation below or above the D-loop this is your answer. It maintains it's round shape and grabs the string very solidly.
All strings are hand made in my shop. The only automation is a serving machine that spins the string...not the server. This provides a very tight and consistent serving application while under 400lbs of tension. I'd be happy to build custom orders with regards to length deviations from factory specs, strand count, construction methods, twist rate, etc. I can also construct sets made from 452X or Astro Flight upon request.
Lastly, For those that have no tuners available in your area I'd be happy to accept shipped bows and tune them to their maximum performance without sacrificing quietness, stability, or shootability. I've had fantastic results using high strand count, dense string and cable sets without sacrificing speed.
All pricing includes speed nocks upon request
Any dealer looking to try something new can call for dealer pricing
Single Cam sets: 70$
Dual Cam sets : 75$
Roller guard servings: 5$
Clear Servings 5$
Color matching Cat Whiskers installed 10$

In America, nearly 70 percent of the adult population is considered overweight.
As you sit with your butt seemingly glued to your office chair for yet another day, could it be that you're about to join that group or are already part of it? If so, you may want to consider what some workers are doing to fight the battle of the bulge.
A University of Missouri employee, Nikki Raedeke, says she lost weight in the double digits since getting up out of her chair as dietetics program director at the College of Human Environmental Sciences in January and never sitting down again.
Raedeke spends her day walking while she works. Using a specially designed treadmill, she walks up to 11 miles each day, all while sending emails, talking on the phone, writing reports or conversing with colleagues.
She says she doesn't even notice she spends her day striding in place, although "handwriting is still a bit tricky," she says.
Raedeke says she was inspired to launch her walking routine after observing Steve Ball, an associate professor of nutrition and exercise physiology at MU who also uses a treadmill while he works.
"I just think we've got to practice what we preach," he says. "It doesn't make sense for me to be on my tail when there's a way for me to get moving and be a role model."
Ball says students and professors often stop by to question him about the treadmill.
The treadmill is designed to reach a maximum speed of 2 mph, he says. That's slow enough to make working easy but fast enough to burn 100 calories an hour.
If you take into account that adding 100 calories a day can add 10 pounds a year, walking while working makes sense, Ball says.
Raedeke, 40, says she worked out several times a week walking or running for about 30 minutes, but the continual movement while on the job has made a difference in other areas.
"I think it has also made me more aware of my diet," she says. "I don't want to go and eat back those calories at night."
While Raedeke and Ball use treadmills designed for office work, best-selling author Tom Rath modified his treadmill and was able to write several hours every day while walking about 1.5 miles an hour. He also walks an additional 5 to 10 miles every day.
Ball and Raedeke offer tips for others interested in adding more activity to their work day:
Move more often • Even if you don't have a treadmill desk, aim for moving every hour, maybe 10 deep knee bends beside your desk or walking in place for 2 minutes.
Research finds that sitting for more than six hours a day increases your chances of dying sooner than someone who sits only three hours a day, no matter how much regular exercise you may get. Experts like Ball consider it key to schedule regular movement throughout the day.
Be a leader • Ball says promoting a healthy lifestyle can change the culture of an office and encourage others to join you.
Employers will find that healthier employees are more productive and lower health-insurance costs, he says.
Dress appropriately • Raedeke says she keeps different shoes at work for her needs.
She wears athletic shoes while walking and slips into other shoes when going to teach a class. She's also learned to dress in layers so she can be comfortable while walking.
Walk and talk • It's easy to build more movement into the day and it can even help office interactions, Ball says.
For example, difficult conversations between a boss and employee are easier when walking, he says, and meetings can be held while everyone takes a walk outside.
Track your progress • You're more likely to stick with health goals if you keep track of what you're eating and how much you're moving, Ball says.
Set a timer at work to remind you to move every hour, or try online applications like myfitnesspal.com to track calories and exercise. Another option is FitBit, a watchlike band that tracks your daily fitness.
"A lot of people give up on fitness because it seems overwhelming and hopeless," Ball says. "You see people in magazines with these six-pack abs. Most people won't get to that, and you don't have to. You just need to be active. So make it easy and accessible."

The black striped version of this dress is exactly what I wanted (more casual looking). I am 5'7, size 18 top, 14/16 bottom, full busted & broad shouldered, otherwise straight up and down. I ordered the 2X and was hoping the stripes would do a little camouflage to the tummy area and it does one better. The mitered stripes and point on the cape contrasting against the horizontal stripe on the bodice work together to make it look like I have a waist! The slight a-line just helps keep the illusion going and balances my top and bottom. It's like magic! My favorite thing I've purchased this year. I tried leaving one arm out with the other side up and I like it that way too (just be prepared for the cape to go a little off center). You will absolutely want to have this in multiple colors.

I was a bit worried after I submitted my order because my body type looks nothing like the model nor does it come close to most of the reviews I had read (5'4" 38D, 180 pounds with a booty), but that click sealed the deal. I ordered size large in gray and I am in love! It hides my little pudge and does not draw too much attention to my booty. I am very picky when it comes to maxi dresses but this dress is A-1! Now I must convince my boyfriend to buy at least three more in different colors.

This dress is amazing. It is one of the most flattering dresses I have ever worn. The fabric is very think and drapes perfectly. I ordered the Navy in a small - I am 5'7" and weigh 138. I have a large chest and not the flattest stomach - this dress would look good on anyone - but it is long so if you are on the shorter side you have to wear high heel. I really want to order this dress in more colors - I am just trying to decide which color since it is a lot of dress with the drape in the front. I am glad I did not order the medium because I like how it fits slim through the hips.

I fell in love with this dress at first sight. Totally my style. I literally ordered at like 4pm yesterday and was trying on the dress by noon today. I do wish there was a better size chart (actually, I couldn't find one at all for this brand). After reading the reviews I decided to go with the large (I'm 5'9", curvy/athletic build, 38DD). I usually wear a 10 and M or L in dresses due to my bust) and it's perfect. The dress part is pretty slim cut but the loose top hides all the right places (I'm still trying to get off that last 10 lbs of baby weight). If's super comfy and fabulous on. I want to order more when they re-stock my size in the colors I want. I think it's cutest worn off the shoulders.

What a comfortable dress, it can be dressed up or worn casual. I'm 5'8 and 170 lbs. and the large fits perfectly. Flattering in the right places and covers up the tummy area. I plan to buy another one in a different color, because when it's gone I'm going to wish I had more. Other good reviews is why I bought it and I'm glad I did.

Brevard College Athletics To Host Annual "Pigskin Pig-out" On August 15August 11, 2008
Brevard, NC- On Friday, August 15, the Brevard College athletics department in collaboration with Aramark will be hosting its annual "Pigskin Pig-out Party" at 6:30 p.m. in the newly renovated Boshamer Gymnasium on the campus of Brevard College.
The Pigskin Pig-out is a great chance for fans of all ages to not only meet the Tornado football players and coaches, but to meet all of the fall sport athletic teams including volleyball and men's and women's soccer.
You can also come out and enjoy a great meal of barbeque, black bean hamburgers, baked beans, slaw and a variety of sweet desserts.
The Tornados fall sports kickoff party will be full of entertainment as there will be bluegrass singing and music along with a well recognized guest speaker. This year's guest speaker for the event is Head Football Coach Paul Hamilton.
"We are fortunate to have one of the finest coaches in college football leading our program, and rather than bring in a big name speaker we felt that members of our community, parents of our student-athletes, and our devoted fans would enjoy the opportunity to get to know Coach Hamilton on more of personal basis," commented Brevard College Athletics Director Kim Pate.
Coach Paul Hamilton is in his second year at the helm of the Tornados, bringing with him 26 years of coaching experience at both the Division I and Division II levels, with ten of those years as head coach.
In his first year at Brevard last season, Coach Hamilton made huge strides in constructing the Brevard College Football program from the ground up. In only their second year of existence, the Tornados finished 2-9 on the year, playing a full South Atlantic Conference slate along the way. The Tornados improved on a regular basis throughout the season, as BC scored in every contest, a huge upgrade from the 2006 season in which the Tornados were shut out four times.
In 2007, the Tornados improved in every statistical category as they competed as provisional members of both the NCAA Division II level and of the very strong South Atlantic Conference which had four different teams ranked throughout the season.
Tickets for the Pigskin Pig-Out can be purchased at the event or by calling 828-884-8276. The cost is $15 for adults and $5 for students.

I got out of school after the school's Olympics; they are the last thing you will have in your memories of that year of junior high. You get to go away from school with awards in your hands, making it feel like you really accomplished something.
I really like the freedom of being able to go to bed late and wake up as late as you want. I enjoy being able to hang out with my friends as much as I want to, and I enjoy being able to have more freedom as I go outside and go to the park. I like to take my dog for a walk every morning that I can. This way I could think about what I want to do that day, and be able to think about other stuff too. I take a different path when I take her on a walk, and it's fun getting to see a different part of my small home town.
I'm glad I didn't go out for any sports or anything that would take up a bunch of time in the summer because I like to have some freedom, since I have a bunch of family things I have to go to.
In fact, on June 13, I headed to Nebraska with some more of my family to see my aunt. I like her house a lot; it has a lot of neat things in it like a really cool Foosball table and a big exercise room. It is also probably one of the biggest basements I will probably ever see. It is really nice, and has a lot of different doors leading to different rooms on it too. And we got to stay in a hotel which is always fun!
We might go on a vacation to Louisiana. My brother and my dad have been to New Orleans two times now, and my mom and I have been there zero times. My dad and brother really like it there a lot. They say it has a lot of interesting places to go to, including an abandoned Six Flags — the reason for it being abandoned is pointed to Hurricane Katrina, which left it destroyed. It has been almost completely looted of anything worth getting out of it, but it still is really cool to go see. They also really liked the French Quarter. It has a lot of good foods and a lot of interesting shops to go to and a whole lot more places to go.
This summer I want to maximize what I do, and I don't want to have a boring day ... even though I might have already had some. But I'm not gonna let any more come along!
My dad had my brother and I make a list of five things we want to do over the summer, and we need to have completed them by the end of the summer. One thing on my list is master playing "Cantina Band" for the trumpet. I don't mean to brag, but I'm pretty good at playing the trumpet; I hope to learn it well!
Having a lot of fun this summer is what I'm going to do, and I hope everyone reading this has a fun summer too!

Singing lieutenant's legacy lives on
By Patty Kruszewski, Citizen Managing Editor 09/24/12
In his last 12 years of life, Art Heller coped with a debilitating stroke, a move from his lifelong home in New Jersey, and the stress of adjusting to serious health limitations and life in an assisted living facility and new town.
But he didn't simply meet the challenge gracefully, say those who knew him. He excelled at his new life, won over an entire community of residents and employees in his new home, and went on to become an icon of the community who is still revered today.
Although the World War II veteran passed away in 2004 – on Veteran's Day – his name still comes up frequently in conversations at Beth Sholom. From his stellar singing voice to his enthusiasm for baseball and his charismatic personality, Heller continues to live prominently in the memories of his Beth Sholom family.
"The staff at the home absolutely adored him," says Arthur's son, Dan. "He had a personality that was able to engage everyone."
Heller recalls that when family members visited other residents of the home, and their own relatives were not doing well, they would seek out Art Heller to get the lift in spirits they needed.
"They'd stop and see my dad and just spend a few minutes, and then they'd tell me how good it made them feel," says Heller. "He had that uncanny ability."
What's more, Art's legacy lives on in the annual Arthur Heller Employee Recognition Award award, which his grateful family established both as a tribute to Heller and as an appreciative gesture to the staff members who helped make his life so enjoyable in his later years.
Heart of gold
This year's award recipient, Mike Sorenson, has worked at Beth Sholom for 17 years in roles ranging from maintenance to night watchman to his current job as medical supplies coordinator. Deirdre Arnowitz, director of social work at Beth Sholom, says Sorenson is not only a deserving recipient, but one who has much in common with the award's namesake.
"Mike is such a sweet man," says Arnowitz. "He'll do anything for anybody and he's very kind to all the residents."
Arnowitz adds that among the roles Sorenson has assigned himself over the years -- without being asked -- is caretaker of animals at the home.
"He loves cats and birds, and when we had a resident cat, Mike took care of her all the time," says Arnowitz. "He took her to the vet and came back on weekends to feed her. He wanted to make sure the residents had a cat."
When the cat died, Sorenson took care of subsequent pets, including birds. He would make sure the birds were covered at night, and took them to residents to keep overnight. "The residents did better because of his efforts," says Arnowitz.
Arnowitz also points out that when feral cats became a problem outside the residential community, Sorenson found homes for all of them as well. On the job, says Arnowitz, Sorenson is known for his knack for fixing things, and often helps out in the rehabilitation department repairing wheelchairs.
"He just has a heart of gold," says Arnowitz, "and an unassuming manner. He never wants attention for himself and was just flabbergasted to get the award."
'King Arthur'
While Sorenson is reluctant to speak of himself, he lights up with a smile remembering Art Heller, whom he calls a "good man" with a talent for singing and playing the piano.
Arnowitz confirms Heller's talent for entertaining, and cites a list of favorite songs he would sing, including "Let Me Call You Sweetheart," "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," and "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling."
"We called him King Arthur," says Arnowitz with a laugh. "He sang for every talent show and sing-along, and everyone followed along. I remember he also sang 'Always' to [his granddaughter] Erin.
"He had the most gorgeous blue eyes. He just melted us."
Dan Heller notes that his father's singing voice was something of a legend, and that he entertained the troops during the 1940s.
"There's a picture of him singing to 10,000 troops in Louisville, Kentucky," says Heller. "They called him 'The Singing Lieutenant.' But he was very modest, and other family members had to tell us about it."
Heller says that after the war, his father apparently auditioned for a singing role, and ended up taking second place. The man he lost out to was Dennis Day, who later went on to fame as Jack Benny's sidekick.
"I tell my children," says Heller, 'If there had been an American Idol in the 1940s, your grandpa would have been in the top ten.'"
'He meant so much'
But it was Art Heller's demeanor, even more than his talent for entertaining, that stands out in the memories of those who knew him.
"He was so appreciative," says Arnowitz, "and so amenable to everyone. Art was just the nicest, kindest, smartest – and he would share about his life. I always assigned social worker interns to him, because he was such a great guy to get to know."
Dan Heller tells the story of an encounter about two years after his father died, when he was in line with his son at a fast food restaurant and noticed a woman staring at him.
Eventually the woman approached him, saying, "You're Mr. Heller's son." She told Dan that she had worked at Beth Sholom years ago, and that in her 25-year career working in nursing homes, his father was the "nicest man I ever met."
"Then," recalls Dan, "she takes out her wallet and shows me his obituary. She looked at me and said, 'He meant so much to me.'"
Hearing that from a professional with that much experience in the field, says Heller, told him that establishing the employee recognition award was clearly the right way to recognize his father.
Since establishing the award (which he discussed with his father before his death), Heller has noticed that the idea seems to generate other ideas for good turns. One day, Heller happened to mention the award while on the golf course, telling his fellow players how it honored not only his father's memory but also the unsung heroes who work at Beth Sholom. One golfer, who had just lost his son in an accident, was moved to donate gift cards to all of the award recipients in his son's memory.
It's also tradition that as part of the annual awards ceremony, previous recipients join the celebration and are given corsages and gift certificates. The current winner, surrounded by residents, staff, and friends of the community, receives a cash award in addition to the recognition.
The ceremony never fails to move Deirdre Arnowitz and members of the Heller family (Dan, wife Nancy, and children Ben and Erin – all of whom have volunteered at the home for years) – or to elicit memories and story-telling about "King Arthur."
"I am so glad he lived here 12 years," says Arnowitz. "We were so lucky to have him."

I am hosting a website on Linux-Apache server. I have a folder called 'docs'. I want to be able to link directory to a PDF file within this folder, i.e. www.mydomain.com/docs/filename.pdf. But what I don't want is the have users be able to see all the files displayed as a list is they were to type in www.mydomain.com/docs/. What do I need to do so the files could be directly linked and downloadable, while not allow visitors to view the complete file list of all content within that folder. Is it a matter of changing a folders permissions or something else?
Never mind my answer... see the one below from dklynn
That's a simple one because Apache has a directive specifically for just such a situation (not exposing files contained in a directory):
Options -Indexes
If you need to learn more about all things Apache, go to http://httpd.apache.org/docs/index.html and pick your version of Apache.
Thanks for the reply, but I have no idea how to or where to do this? Can anybody please help?
A simple option is to put a file in that folder called index.php
It can even be blank, but it will prevent anyone from viewing that file list you speak of.
Or it can just be called index.html, by the way. I'm on a phone, so couldn't edit the last post.
Thanks,that was an easy fix
Sorry, as I explained to Guido via PM:
.htaccess in the DocumentRoot can be used to tell Apache the following:
PLEASE use the correct statements to control Apache functions as the use of an index.php file was serendipitous in its meeting the OP's request.
Thanks David. I knew your solution would be much better, but had sympathy for the OP, who (if anything like me) is probably bewildered by this stuff. Unless I have my hand held and every step laid out in full, I easily get lost in the crevasses of undefined steps, so to speak.
To expand on your advice above, do you mean that, in a .htaccess file in the root folder, the following should be added to deal with situations like this?
Options -Indexes
ErrorDocument 404 /my-404-page.html
Hi Ralph,
Thanks for that.
I was ready to respond with the .htaccess information but saw your back-and-forth with PP and HAD to comment.
In explanation for the serendipity comment, the server must be using index.php somewhere in its DirectoryIndex statement (in httpd.conf). The simple fact that you chose that meant that Apache would serve the (null?) index.php file rather than the (Options +Indexes) directory listing. Serendipity can be a useful tool but, if you actually know what you're doing, you don't need it (Luck - "The Good Lord protects babies, drunks and fools" - and it's best not the be the latter and I'm far too old to be in the first category :drink: ).
Actually, I will tend to use (without comments or going into mod_rewrite code):
# .htaccess in DocumentRoot
# Set Apache Options
Options -Indexes -MultiViews
# Set Directory Indexes
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html home.php other_as_required
# Set ErrorDocument for this domain
ErrorDocument 404 /sitemap.php
# OPTIONAL code to prohibit viewing .htaccess file
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
When I get lazy, I'll only use the DirectoryIndex and ErrorDocument but the others should be considered the best candidates for inclusion ... with the caveat that you don't need the comments I inserted so they should be removed for efficiency.
I hope that explanation helped everyone.
Thanks David. That's a fantastic little tutorial right there. Thanks for going into such detail. Certainly bookmarked for future reference.
I'm a little hazy about the Multiviews part. Is +Multiviews the default? I use a CMS that does included index.php in the middle of the URI (http://example.com/index.php/yadda-yadda/), though I use some htaccess code to hide it, as most others do, too. I wonder how -Multiviews would affect that. I wasn't clear on what "trips-up newbie webmasters" (says he, flat on his face).
Just open a text editor, and paste the following code.
header('Location: ../');
Save it as index.php. Now upload it to /docs directory.
Or, you can configure .htaccess.
Hi ayonkhan,
While your PHP redirect will work, it is generally not the preferred method. It requires that Apache make a route, read a page and then redirect when the .htaccess file is read and redirected prior to having to invoke PHP or load a page. When you get into really complicated rewrites then often using PHP redirects make more sense.
No problem. It seemed that a detailed explanation was necessary.
+MultiViews is not the default ... probably because it's such a PITA!
Sorry, I didn't understand the question about the CMS with index.php in the middle of the URI. I'm familiar with WP which redirects everything (which does not exist as a file or directory) to its own index.php which then parses ({THE_REQUEST?} ... well, that's my guess). If your CMS DISPLAYS the index.php in the middle of the URI, then it's got to invoke +MultiViews. As you can tell, I dislike that approach.
"Trips-up newbie webmasters" means that new webmasters don't understand how MultiViews works so they casually select directory names which might duplicate file names. If that's the case, they'll never reach the directory contents. IMHO, that's a GOTCHA!
Spot on! When a webmaster cannot create a RewriteMap (does not have control over the server or virtual host configuration files), I've recommended that a PHP handler script be used to perform a file or database lookup for the redirection followed by a header(status) and then header(location) redirection. Since this is only made necessary when a webmaster needs to recreate a website while preserving PR for the old pages (and didn't bother to use the same script names), this is rarely used.
As far as I'm concerned, mod_rewrite is an exceptionally powerful tool which can perform ALL necessary redirections (given the necessary permissions to modify the requisite files as noted above).

Kidney transplant recipient Rick Lilly held a sign reading, "One down. 80,000 to go," pleading for organ donors at the 2012 Transplant Games in Grand Rapids, Mich., in July.
Lilly and the 18 other Team Utah Idaho transplant athletes collectively received the most medals per capita and brought home the 3-foot-tall Team Cup.
"We're very proud to say that our transplant patients are the greatest athletes in the nation," said Willem Van der Werf, the chief of transplant surgery at Intermountain Medical Center, (IMC) at a Monday press event celebrating the win.
The cup will be displayed at Primary Children's Medical Center and the University of Utah before it is permanently placed at IMC in Murray.
Lilly competed to celebrate the life-saving kidney he received from his father at age 19, even though he discovered just before the games that the kidney was rapidly failing. He chose bowling for the team over staying home and sitting on his "tush," he said.
"It's just an amazing feeling, and it's so much fun to give back," Lilly said, who took home five medals. "When I compete I feel like I'm competing for my dad."
When Lilly returned from the games this year he went straight to an emergency room. He's now hospitalized awaiting another transplant, hopefully from one of his siblings, he said.
"If I don't get [a kidney transplant] I won't feel bad," he said. He's just grateful for the extra 14 years his father's donation gave him, he said, and wants to make sure his father knows that he's doing something special with his second chance at life.
This is Lilly's fifth games. He has competed in three U.S. and two international games in Sweden and Australia. He said he has placed his medals in shadow boxes and presented them to his father.
"It's fun for me," he said, but"it's something I do out of respect for him."
The other team members which include two donors helped rack up the team's total of 88 medals, and they are in excellent health.
Van der Werf operated on Steve Baldridge, 60, who received a gold medal for being a living donor. He also competed in table tennis at the games.
Baldridge donated his kidney to a neighbor in need. He's donated 168 times. Each donation of platelets takes about two hours to complete, which means his donations, added up, amount to 14 straight days of immobility with needles in his arms.
"I'm happy to do it, and I'll continue to do it as long as I can," Baldridge said, who has permanent scars in both arms from donating. "I'm fresh out of kidneys, but I can give platelets."
Sharon Miller, the Utah Idaho team's manager, said they were happy to win and it was exciting, but winning is not the reason they compete.
"Organ donation really does not keep up with the demand," Miller said. There are more than 124,000 people in the U.S., with more than 600 in Utah, waiting for a transplant, she said.
"The transplant games were started to give visibility to the miracle of organ and transplant donation," Miller said.
Mykel Ramsey, 20, who has received two kidney transplants, says that is why she competed.
"I am on 15 borrowed years of life and it's amazing to have the donor families that we have, and the donors that we have," she said. "It's really important for people to be donors because all… seventeen of us at one point were waiting for an organ."

A victory for civil rights.
Today's a good day.
Apple needs to keep outta crap like that and focus on more innovation.
I'm all for gay people doing their gay things if it makes them feel better, but why should the federal government give benefits to gay couples? The only reason the federal government gives any kind of benefits to non-homosexual couples is because that couple can reproduce.
The government doesn't exist to make people equal. Same-sex couples are not equal to opposite sex couples.
No, I'm not anti-gay, I'm anti-government-doing-things-it-wasn't-designed-for.
The government doesn't exist to make people equal, just to make sure that they have equal rights. You're obviously not anti-gay. After all, like you said, you're "all for gay people doing their gay things". If that's not the voice of supporter of gay rights, I don't know what is.
SnapIt, Jahooba, you both are idiots.
Just because something is seen as wrong doesn't mean it has to be illegal either. Typically laws are made about things that actually harm other people or even things that are considered animal cruelty (like sex without proper consent).
I cant wait till all this crap is over and we can just treat people like people not what their orientation is. I mean if a guy wants to loe another guy why do YOU care let them be. If they want to get married SO WHAT they should enjoy the same benefits as any other married couple. WE ARE SUPPOSED TO FREE IN THIS COUNTRY not oppressed@! Now as for the lesbains well they just have to come to my bed for approval first so I can watch, no wat i mean...
1 USC § 7 - Definition of âmarriageâ and âspouseâ | Title 1 - General Provisions | U.S. Code | LII / Legal Information Institute
Note that this is the DOMA version of the federal government's definition of marriage. Note that reproduction isn't mentioned anywhere in that definition.
Cousin marriage law in the United States by state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As for something like siblings, there is a practical reason for disallowing it. Given the geometric increase of the human population, I don't think you can claim that the ability to reproduce as a couple is a practical reason for disallowing same sex marriage.
congrats on making the dumbest post I've ever read on this site.
Lord forgive them, for they know not what they say. I hope hell (if it does exist) doesn't have a VIP section for the dumb and dimwitted, otherwise it would have to be expanded with the hard labor of those souls already damned to regret their words and actions against their fellow brethren. /s

By Rikki King Herald Writer
BOTHELL — The estranged husband of a slain Bothell woman was arrested Thursday after refusing to turn over his passport to detectives investigating her death.
Bothell police went to the man's home about 9 a.m. Thursday to serve a warrant allowing them to confiscate his passport, Sgt. Cedric Collins said. The man refused and was arrested on suspicion of obstructing a police officer, a misdemeanor.
For months, investigators have focused on the man's actions around the time that Susann Smith, 37, was found stabbed and bludgeoned to death in her home. They were getting divorced.
On Thursday, detectives started to publicly call the man a suspect in the killing, Collins said.
After he refused to hand over his passport, detectives allowed him to leave the house while they stayed there serving a search warrant.
A short time later, they were convinced they had grounds for his arrest, Collins said. The man was found a mile or two away.
As of late Thursday afternoon, the man remained in custody at the Bothell Police Department, Collins said. He was expected to be booked into jail for obstruction.
Officers have been called to the man's home about five times in recent weeks for various reported disturbances involving him and his new girlfriend, Collins said. The man had been living in a nearby apartment when his wife died. He moved back into the home weeks later — a decision that upset the neighbors.
Court records show Smith and her husband were fighting over custody of their two children. The children were taken into state custody after the slaying.
The man's computer history showed that around the time of his wife's death he had been searching for flights out of the country, court records said.
Smith's body was found Feb. 12 after she didn't show up for work at a Seattle software company.
Detectives in court papers have alleged that after the killing, they found blood on the man's backpack and parts of his car. They spent months collecting and analyzing financial and telephone records, as well as personal electronics, that belonged to him and the victim.
In May, police recovered an abandoned bicycle they believed may have been used as the getaway vehicle in the killing. They believe the man had purchased the bicycle before the killing and may have deliberately tried to get it stolen. The results of scientific tests conducted on the bicycle have not been made public.

For Museveni, a master political manipulator, it serves an important political function.
In short, both Obama and Museveni would be very happy if this whole crisis would just go away.
Museveni may have underestimated the extent of the Western backlash to the AHA; this could give him an opportunity to back out.
The bill also served an important purpose for Museveni internationally.

Of course, Museveni and Kutesa will spin this story however they want.

A formulary is a list of covered drugs selected by the Medicare Advantage plans in consultation with a team of healthcare providers, which represents the prescription therapies believed to be a necessary part of a quality treatment program. Your Medicare Advantage plan will generally cover the drugs listed in the formulary as long as the drug is medically necessary, the prescription is filled at a network pharmacy, and other plan rules are followed.
For basic information on your Medicare Advantage formulary, please review the Formulary or the Evidence of Coverage for your plan.
