Violet Affleck Throws a Tantrum (PHOTOS)
Even the most adorable celebu-tot has an off day every once in a while.
Jennifer Garner's 4-year-old daughter, the normally agreeable Violet Affleck, didn't appear to be in the best of moods while out with her mom in Los Angeles on Friday. Maybe somebody stole her Nancy Drew book?

In Memoriam
Robert Schott
Word has been received of the death Wednesday (September 1, 2010) of Robert (Bob) Schott, the former longtime supervisor of custodial operations at UW-Green Bay and a good neighbor to campus from its earliest years. Schott retired in March 1992, but is remembered to this day for his service to the institution and its development, and his unique involvement in growing the reputation of Eco U. At the time the Shorewood site was first developed in the late 1960s, Schotts family operated a small dairy farm adjacent to the northeast corner of campus. They later sold part of their holdings to the Nature Conservancy and contributed to the further development of the Cofrin Arboretum in the 1990s. The Sager Tract, consisting of 20 acres just below the Niagara Escarpment ridge, is part of that land. Schotts barn, still standing on private property near Champeau Road and Scottwood Drive, was literally a field site for UW-Green Bay science research during the institutions first decade. Students designed and piloted what was believed to be among the first anaerobic digesters of its type to harness the energy value of methane from dairy waste; custodial supervisor Schott hosted dignitaries and visitors from around the world who were interested in seeing a demonstration of groundbreaking, hands-on student learning. Schott was also instrumental in coordinating the new institutions early recycling programs. Family and friends may call at the Pfotenhauer Funeral Home & Cremation Service, 2379 East Mason St., on Monday (Sept. 6) from 4 to 8 p.m. Visitation continues on Tuesday from 9:30 until the 10:30 a.m. funeral mass at St. Kilian Catholic Church, New Franken. Information is online at http://www.pfotenhauerfuneralhome.com/obituaries.php
Bob Schott, former UW-Green Bay employee and dairy farmer
Robert James Schott, 80, passed away peacefully after a long and courageous battle with lung disease on Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2010, at Unity Hospice. He was born in New Franken, on Feb. 26, 1930, to the late Theodore and Florence (Laundrie) Schott. Robert graduated from Catholic Central High School in Green Bay in 1948. He served in the U.S. Army from 1954 to 1956 and was honorably discharged.

Hardened American soldiers who spearheaded the drive into Baghdad have a hazardous new job - corralling roaming lions in the city centre, and looking after the bears and wolves left in a pitiful condition in the city's zoo.
The men of Lieutenant-Colonel Eric Schwartz's task force 1/64 expected to switch from street fighters to peacekeepers once Saddam Hussein's forces were defeated. They never imagined they would become zoo keepers.
The animals were left to starve in the Baghdad Zoo in the al-Zawra entertainment park. Last week some of the zoo's seven lions made fatal bids for freedom through damaged walls.
One escaped on Tuesday and was shot dead by the troops, who feared it would run wild. On Thursday evening, three more forced their way out after nightfall. Soldiers tried to recapture the animals, herding them using vehicle headlights and shooting in the air.
They retrieved only one, and had to shoot the others.
"We fought our way from Kuwait to Najaf to Karbala to Baghdad, but the hardest thing I've had to do in Iraq was kill those two lions," said Colonel Schwartz. "My men really care about these animals."
The zoo's birds, fish and reptiles were stolen by looters to sell, but they thought better of tackling the lions, which were donated by Saddam's son Uday.
"They weren't so keen on the big carnivores," said a US tank commander patrolling the grounds where wolves, unused to freedom, still scavenge for what food they can find.
Soldiers from the 2nd Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division - the troops who first fought their way into Baghdad two weeks ago - have been feeding the caged animals with slaughtered donkeys, and bringing them water from the artificial lake.
The Government of Kuwait yesterday did its bit to help, sending a convoy of emergency food for the animals.
Hisham Mohamed, a vet, is one of the few zoo workers to return to work after the lawlessness of the last week.
He said the zoo desperately needed drugs, food and equipment.
"I just feel very, very sad when I look at this place now," he said.
The saddest sight is the two brown bears. When they are not padding up and down in front of the bars, they retreat to the back of the cages and curl up, with their paws across their faces.
Even before the conflict, the zoo was a sad place, with a strange assortment of beasts in miserable cages.
Many other animals have died, or been killed for food. A team of vets left South Africa last week to provide assistance to the zoo.

Interviewing, Counseling & Negotiation (ICN) is a seminar in which the relationships between attorney and client and between attorney and opposing counsel are examined. It is a skills based course which will focus on the practical aspects of interviewing and counseling clients. Students will observe and practice interviewing, counseling, and negotiation. The ethical considerations of these activities will be covered.
In addition, the theories of negotiation will be explored ranging from direct negotiation with opposing counsel or parties, to formal modes of dispute resolution including arbitration, settlement facilitation and mediation.
Guest speakers will present on a variety of discussions, including client intake, interviewing witnesses, the attorney-adjuster relationship and plea bargaining.
At the end of the course students will have created a portfolio of documents used in the interviewing counseling and negotiation context.

by Anna MacLean
|Review by: Kim Wells
This quick, "great-fun-for-summer-beach-or-hammock-read" is a mystery, with Louisa May Alcott as its fictionalized narrator/protagonist. Anna MacLean has done a wonderful job of capturing Alcott's voice and style-- it reads very much like a story Alcott would have written-- and I suspect the real Alcott would have liked it, and maybe even wished she had written it herself. It ends up being like a cross between Little Women's style and the that of the short novels published under her "blood and thunder" psuedonym A.M. Barnard (which I highly recommend also as some of Alcott's most fun-- and maybe even her best-- work).
In the novel--which takes place during the years before Louisa is a young woman and not yet published--she tries to solve a double murder-mystery in which a childhood friend is mixed up. MacLean deftly works in the expected twists and turns, with everyone at one point a suspect, and combined with these typical elements of the detective novel, the frequent name-dropping of the real famous literary names who populated Alcott's Boston and Concord (Emerson! Thoreau! Margaret Fuller!) world make the reading enjoyable. Louisa credits her ability to solve the mystery to her reading of Poe's "Murders in the Rue Morgue" (which scholars tend to credit as the very first mystery story ever) and there are a few spots where the scholar turned mystery writer (since Anna MacLean is a college professor) teachs us about some aspect of Victorian history. Yet with these slightly academic and biographical touches, we still find a believable enough character and setting and social scenarios-- in other words, this is no scholarly tract even with its touches of real-life literary history. We are willing led through the story's quick-pacing and smile as we see how even a bold young woman of her time would react to the situations in which she finds herself (including, even, a viewing of a postmorten Victorian autopsy--eat your heart out CSI!)
This is apparently the first in a series of "Louisa May Alcott Mysteries" and the excerpt at the back of my copy promises another fun novel to come. In the reviews/advance praise, there is a quote from John Pratt, the great-great nephew of Louisa May (the real one) that declares "it's great fun, and a page-turner, and it uses the morals and mores of time and place to great effect". I would say that Pratt gets it right in his review, and I would add that if you're a fan of the murder mystery, or of Alcott's work, you will enjoy this novel and series-to-come.

Anger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion unless it gets out of control and turns destructive. This leads to problems—problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. I work with clients to help them take back control of their emotions. We start by identifying the feelings attached to anger to uncover ways to express these emotions without causing harm to relationships.

I work it down with verbs. Instead of I' m hungry enough to eat a horse, I can pet it, water it, groom it, talk to it, or ride it. Riding it is better for me than overeating because I'm a little mal nourished as it is. Horsemeat might not.be good for. you. It's too tough. So, for the purpose of anger-reduction, riding is better. I suppose the main tenet is to relax when feeling angry, and try real hard not to blame the horse. He doesn't know any better!

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

Has someone told you that you are getting way too stressed out about things?I will help you learn to communicate your thoughts without becoming confrontational. Do you even know what your positive traits are anymore? We'll discuss them and also that anger is more of a secondary emotion to more primary feelings such as fear, guilt, shame, powerlessness, or sadness. Together, we will identify the triggers that upset you, so that you can be more self-aware and develop coping skills. Reducing anger will improve your self-image, patience, interactions with family and career success, while reducing health issues such as headache and backaches.

Anger is often triggered by an underlying emotion such as sadness, disappointment but comes out in a way that protects these feelings. Some anger can be healthy; as in being angry enough at a growing waistline to sign up for the gym or speaking up when boundaries get crossed over and over. Through using cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness techniques, clients can learn to communicate in ways that meet their needs and still respect the needs of others.

Issues with controlling anger have to do with impulse control. This is an issue of development, and suggests that those people who can't control their anger haven't successfully negotiated frustration tolerance early in life. Often, this failure has to do with difficulties that parents themselves had with the issue, as well as parental inadequacies with regard to tenderness and soothing, major ingredients that help establish emotional security and self esteem. I will help you explore the "red zones," the places your brain goes to when life issues trigger you to behave reflexively rather than thoughtfully, and to visualize consequences before taking action. www.ThriveTherapydoc.com

Life can be unfair and we can experience a great deal of anger as a result. Anger can cause us to hurt the ones we love, jeopardize our careers and cause legal and medical issues.

I can help you learn how to control your anger so that you will feel stronger, calmer and in control. Don't let your anger control you. Take control of your life today.

I provide individual psychotherapy for anger management. Anger is normal emotion that everyone experiences. It becomes a problem when one expresses anger inappropriately or one lacks the proficiency to express any emotions but anger. I use Humanistic and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to help my clients understand their anger, improve their emotional experience, and express their emotions in healthy ways. A healthy emotional life is the cornerstone of living a full and successful life.

Healthy anger is intended to communicate a problem in relationship that needs attention. It is intended to say this is important take it seriously. Many people think of anger as the blaming, yelling, controlling behavior that is destructive to relationships, and prevents healthy communication. Those with a genuine desire to change can learn to manage their feelings in healthy ways that build rather then destroy relationships. I work with clients to help them identify and manage their feelings and needs and direct their actions toward self-confidence, and empathy for others.

I work with the client in regards to current anger, past history of anger, and family history of anger. I work with the client to identify current stress, and to especially identify emotions including sadness, fear, confusion, and to identify coping skills to either work with family members, a boss, or co-workers. I feel that improving communication skills, problem solving skills, and developing a strong support network are vital to better understand and work regarding anger in a healthy, non-threatening way.

Having tools promotes healthy personal relationships and a happier more satisfying, sucessful life. Venues such as spirituality, meditation, writing and continuing with counseling when needed.

I had Radiesse injected in my cheek area about two months ago. I would now like to get Botox injections for my crows feet. My question is will the Botox injections "hit" or be injected through the Radiesse in my upper cheeks? I have had Botox before in my crows feet so I know where the injection points in this area are and based on that it seems like the injections would have to go through the Radiesse. Is this ok and safe to happen?
Botox Injections After Radiesse for Cheeks?

Botox injections after Radiesse for cheeks
It is ok to have Botox following a treatment with Radiesse. The Botox injections will not interfere at all. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck!

Botox and radiesse can safely be injected near each other
Botox and radiesse are often injected at the same session. They dont interract with eachother. They are also injected at different levels, so it is unlikely they would actually mix anyway.
Botox Injections After Radiesse for Cheeks
Thank you for your question. Whether it's the same day or a few months apart, there is no problem with injecting Botox and Radiesse in close proximity on the face. These products are injected at different levels in the skin and serve different purposes, and therefore one product will not be disrupted by the other.

Botox Injections After Radiesse for Cheeks
Botox injections are commonly done at the same time as Radiesse and do not pose any difficulty for you or the effectiveness of either agent. Radiesse is injected deep in the tissue planes and Botox is injected superficial hence the bleb that occurs with its injection.
Botox after Radiesse
It is a common practice to inject Botox after injecting fillers like Radiesse. The nature of the botox injections are totally different from filler injections in that they are injected in different depths. I would not be concerned at all about having this done.
It's More Than Safe
I commonly place botox/dysport and fillers at the same time. The fillers include Radiesse, Juvederm, Restylane, etc. Sculptra as well. There is nothing wrong with placing both at the same time or at different times. They work by different mechanisms and together they can by synergistic. Visit a board certified Plastic Surgeon or Derm and don't be afraid.
Botox and Radiesse Injections...
Botox injections to the Crowsfeet after getting Radiesse in your cheeks a few months ago is completely safe. There are no contraindications with these treatments. Enjoy!

Botox and Radiesse
Dear heygirly74,
- There will be no problem injecting Botox around the eyes after Radiesse
- The combination of the 2 of them will look fantastic
Best regards,
Nima Shemirani
Radiesse and Botox
Radiesse should be injected onto the bone for augmentation, and the Botox should be injected more superficially into the muscle. They should not affect one another.
Is Botox ok after Radiesse ?
Yes, Botox should perfectly fine after Radiesse. Botox in injected very superfically in the crowsfeet area whereas Radiesse in injected deeper; in most cases below the muscle.

Father, two daughters hurt in Orleans County crash
MURRAY – Three people were injured in a the crash of a SUV in the Town of Murray Friday night, Orleans County Sheriff's deputies said.
Listed in guarded condition is Scott A. Kuhn, 40, of Holley, who was driving east on Lynch Road about 7 p.m., when he apparently lost control of the SUV and went off the south side of the road, down a slight embankment and flipped over before striking a tree.
Kuhn was trapped in the wreckage for more than two hours before being freedby volunteer firefighters. He was flown to Strong Memorial Hospital in Rochester by Mercy Flight.
Kuhn's two daughters, ages 12 and 13, were able to free themselves from the wreckage and were taken to Strong by ambulance, with injuries described as non-life threatening.
Slippery road conditions and imprudent speed were contributing factors in the crash, according to deputies, who were assisted by state troopers.
The crash occurred shortly after 7 p.m.

Simple iPhone cable
OK, I was surprised that I was not able to locate a post that already addresses this question, so I am posting it here.
I have a 2006 530xi sedan with Sirius and the changer in the glove box, but without nav.
I want to connect my iPhone for music purposes but don't really care about steering wheel controls or displaying information on the idrive screen. I just want a good, direct signal to the amp.
So, here is my solution. I would like to remove the changer and create a custom wiring harness that just taps into the audio inputs used by the changer. Then run the cable out of the glove box for connection to the dock port on the iPhone. Seems simple enough. Why is there not already a commercially available cable to do just that. Or is there one? Or is there something that I am missing that would preclude this seemingly simple solution.
I took a similar approach with an old Acura Legend and have some decent experience doing this sort of thing.
I can't be the only one who wants only audio and doesn't care about the idrive display or steering wheel controls.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

While Kroger, the largest U.S. supermarket operator and owner of Ralphs, Smith's and Food 4 Less chains, reported lower-than-expected quarterly sales Wednesday, investors didn't take kindly to a cautious outlook for next year. Shares dropped 2.2% mid-day on trading volume of 6.2 million, nearly double its average.
Like all grocers, Kroger is facing a shorter holiday season and slow economic recovery exacerbated by the $5 billion cut in food stamps on Nov. 1, which affects one out of seven Americans.
Still, Kroger retained its forecast for sales growth of between 3% and 3.5% for the full fiscal year and still projects annual profit of $2.73 to $2.80 a share.
Kroger, the top-performing mainstream U.S. grocer, maintained its forecast for full-year identical supermarket sales growth, excluding fuel, in the range of 3% to 3.5% and annual profit of $2.73 to $2.80 per share.

With Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor well on her way to confirmation, the political battle figures to shift sharply toward health care in the weeks ahead.
President Obama again pushed Congress to pass a major health care overhaul by the August recess, in Rose Garden remarks designed to honor members of the American Nurses Association.
"We are going to get this done," he said. "We need to buck up people here. ... Our nurses are on board. The American people are on board. It's now up to us."
Obama again attacked "the naysayers and cynics" who question the political challenges of a new health care law. And he pledged to keep pounding the subject "for the next two to three weeks" until the House and Senate agree on a bill -- though he suggested that resolving differences between the chambers may push things beyond August.
"Then we'll deserve a few weeks' rest before we come back and finally get a bill done so we can sign it right here in the Rose Garden," he said.
Obama said "deferring reform" is akin to "defending the status quo," with its rising insurance premiums and medical costs, and as more people lose their health insurance.
"The status quo on health care is not an option for the United States of America," Obama said. "It is threatening the financial stability of our families, of businesses, and of government itself. It's unsustainable and it has to change."
Obama had kind words for plans emanating from both the House and the Senate. The Senate heath and labor committee approved a $600 billion version of reform earlier today, and Obama praised the work of the ailing Sen. Ted Kennedy, a long-time advocate of universal health care.
The Kennedy bill "will finally lower health care costs, provide better care for patients, and ensure fair treatment of consumers by the insurance agency," Obama said.
Obama also hailed the new $1.5 trillion health care proposal put out yesterday by House Democrats.
The president's demand for a health care bill by the August recess is starting to rile some Republicans. At the Sotomayor hearings, Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., apologized to the judge for missing some of her previous testimony.
"We had a schedule that says we must finish health care within a certain time," Coburn said. "Whether we get it right or wrong, we've got to get it done in a certain time."

I won't quit, Fiji PM says
Fiji's Prime Minister, Laisenia Qarase.
Photo: Reuters
Fiji's prime minister dug in today against the nation's belligerent military chief, refusing to quit as armed soldiers seized an ammunitions shipment police fear will be used to stage a coup.
Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase also hinted today during a national address that international forces may have to intervene if Commodore Frank Bainimarama follows through with his threat to unseat the government.
The international community rallied behind Qarase today, with Australia, the United States and New Zealand warning of profound economic and other consequences for Fiji if the military moved to oust the government.
Meanwhile, plans were being put in place to quickly evacuate foreign nationals if the need arises.
Qarase said he was open to talks with the military chief, who has repeatedly threatened to force the prime minister's resignation unless he drops an amnesty bill for some of those involved in Fiji's 2000 coup.
But he vowed he would not be intimidated into resigning.
And even as the offer of new talks was made, Qarase referred to the failure of similar talks in January which fell apart, he says, because the military chief believed he could order the government around.
Qarase said he would ask Fiji's Great Council of Chiefs (GCC) - which has been called upon to mediate in the country's past coups - to resolve the current crisis.
The prime minister's address followed his bid yesterday to have Bainimarama sacked. The push failed spectacularly when a senior officer refused to take over the job, instead pledging allegiance to his commander.
"I declare emphatically that there is absolutely no question of me resigning in response to the current situation, or my government, stepping down," Qarase said in his national address.
"We have the constitutional authority and the support of the people to rule now and for the next five years," he said.
PM warns of 'dire consequences'
Qarase said there would be dire consequences if the military failed to heed international warnings to play a proper role in a democracy.
"Following the (coup) crisis of 2000, the members of the Pacific Island Forum adopted the Biketawa Declaration," Qarase said.
"This declaration provides the mandate for intervention by member governments at the invitation of the lawful authority in a forum country affected by crisis."
The declaration led to the Australian-led regional assistance mission (RAMSI) which intervened in the Solomon Islands in 2003.
"I very much hope, then, that those in the military, will keep in mind the catastrophic consequences of the threats that are being made against the elected government of the people of Fiji," Qarase said.
A military spokesman welcomed the proposal for talks.
"Good sense has prevailed," Major Neumi Leweni told Fiji Television.
"We await the return of the commander and he's indicated that he's willing to meet with (Qarase) again and obviously that's a good sign," Leweni said.
Bainimarama is expected to return from visiting Fiji troops in the Middle East by the end of the week or early next week.
Qarase, in offering a new round of talks, referred to the collapse earlier this year of negotiations aimed at settling their dispute.
"The problem that immediately arose was he expected me to virtually follow his orders. As head of a democratically-elected government I could not do that, " Qarase said.
Fiji Police Commissioner, Australian Andrew Hughes, expressed outrage today after army troops seized a consignment of 7.5 tonnes of bullets from Suva's wharves and took it to army barracks without approval.
Hughes, who had withheld the shipment fearing it could be used in any coup attempt, also said the soldiers threatened police at the dock.
"I have tried to talk to the acting commander (Captain Esala Teleni) on the phone today but they are not answering their phones, " Hughes said in a statement.
"I have faxed him a letter stating in the strongest possible terms, my views on what has transpired today."
Hughes vowed to investigate what he called an unlawful action, but military spokesman Leweni said the armed forces believed they had the appropriate paperwork to take the ammunition.
Qarase and Hughes have both appealed for calm.
"I would like to assure the citizens of Fiji and her visitors that the law and order situation is intact and within the control of the Fiji police," Hughes said.
Howard pledges to evacuate Australians if necessary
Australians will be evacuated from the island should it become necessary, the Australian Prime Minister, John Howard, said today.
About 7000 Australians are believed to be in the Pacific island nation, where fears are rising about a possible military coup.
The Australian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Alexander Downer, has expressed concern there could be a military coup. Mr Downer said the Australian Navy was on stand-by if Australians needed to be evacuated.
Canberra also has upgraded its travel advisory for Australians heading to Fiji.
Mr Howard spoke to Mr Qarase overnight, offering his full support for the democratically-elected leader.
"I conveyed to the Fijian prime minister the strong support of the government," he said.
Mr Howard also warned today that any attempt by the military to overthrow the government could lead to international intervention.
"The international community is now more proactive in protecting democratically elected governments when the rule of law and its constitutionality are threatened or overturned," he said.
"Our international friends are coming out very strongly in support of the maintenance of democracy and constitutional rule in Fiji."
Foreign Minister Alexander Downer said tonight that he was not sure there would be enough time for diplomatic intervention to avoid a coup attempt.
Mr Downer said Australia would have to wait and see what assistance it could give to help ease tensions in Fiji.
"This is something that we are working through," he told reporters in Sydney.

The design review process was instituted as part of Sausalito's development review process to promote quality design, site relationships, and other aesthetic considerations of development in the City. Special consideration is given to building design, site planning, parking, landscape design, views, and native vegetation preservation. The five to seven member Planning Commission (PC) is partially composed of architects to provide the Commission with professional expertise in its review of development proposals. The Planning Commission reviews most development proposals in the City. However, with respect to signs, the PC must:
Step 1 - Project Consideration
Early in the consideration of a potential project, the applicant should carefully review what the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance calls for in the location or area affected with respect to signage. It is essential that the proposed sign be consistent with the General Plan and the Zoning Ordinance or the application cannot be accepted. Community Development Department personnel should be consulted for opinions on compatibility and probable conditions.
Step 2 - Filing of Application
The applicant will submit the completed application, filing fee and other required data (see "Application Submittal Requirements" at end of this document) to the Community Development Department. Once the application has been filed:
The fee for design review is established by the City Council and is intended to offset the cost of the number of hours that professional staff spend on design review projects.
Step 3 - Environmental Review
Some design review requests for signs may be required to have an environmental assessment to determine if it will have an adverse impact on the environment. Information on timing and sequence of this process is contained in "A Guide to Procedures for Environmental Review."
Step 4 - Staff Review for Planning Commission
Once the application has been deemed complete, Planning staff will:
A written staff report will be prepared for the PC which will analyze the proposed sign and will include recommendations on the project.
A copy of the staff report will be sent to the applicant on the Friday before the scheduled PC hearing date. Copies of the report will also be available to the public after they are sent to the PC.
Step 5 - Formal Planning Commission Review
The PC is required to hold at least one hearing on the proposed sign application. Once the application has been deemed complete:
The notice must be posted no fewer than 10 days prior to the hearing date, and be posted in the City Hall and appear in the Marin Scope newspaper.
At the public hearing:
The PC decision will become final at the date of adoption of the resolution, unless an appeal is filed (as is described in Step 6). The Resolution will either be adopted at the final hearing or at the next scheduled meeting of the Commission.
Step 6 - Appeals to the City Council
Within 10 days after the decision of the PC, an applicant, city resident, or affected property owner may submit an appeal of the PC's action to the City Council (CC) by filing an appeal form and appeal fee with the City Clerk. After the filing of an appeal, the following steps will take place:
Following the public hearing on the appeal, the Council may:
The decision of the City Council is final.
The actual time for processing of a design review application will vary depending upon the complexity and magnitude of the proposal and staff and Commission workloads, but it is generally estimated:
A. From completed application to PC review: 3-4 WEEKS B. PC review to City Council acknowledgment of PC Action: 1-2 WEEKS C. Total Estimated Process Time: 4-6 WEEKS

Connections between Herman Melville (1819-1891) and Princeton University began in the eighteenth century, with his grandfather Major Thomas Melvill (1751-1832) graduating with Princeton class of 1769. His uncle Peter Gansevoort (1788-1876) followed in the class of 1808. To celebrate the centenary of Moby Dick in 1951, Firestone Library mounted a Melville extravaganza featuring dozens of the significant holdings, detailed in a catalogue compiled by Howard C. Rice, Jr., Alexander D. Wainwright, Julie Hudson, and Alexander P. Clark. http://libweb5.princeton.edu/visual_materials/pulc/pulc_v_13_n_2.pdf
Melville and Moby Dick continue to make connections with our students, as AMS 353/ENG 355 "Moby-Dick Unbound" taught by Professor William Howarth begins this week. It is a good excuse to post a few of the dozens of editions available to researchers through rare books and special collections.

Cape Town - The Junior Springboks have continued their preparations for the IRB Junior World Championship with a hard-fought 60-14 victory over Argentina Under-20 at Stellenbosch on Tuesday.
Last week, the South Africa Under-20 side won the first of three encounters 78-31 in Saldanha Bay. The third and final clash between the two sides takes place on Saturday at 16:00 at the City Park Stadium in Crawford, Cape Town.
The Junior Boks piled on 38 points in the second half after leading 22-0 at half-time thanks to tries from captain and fullback, Jesse Kriel, Malcolm Marx, Cyle Brink and Dan Kriel.
In the second half, the South Africans added six more tries through Neil Maritz (2), Corniel Els (2), Jean-Luc du Preez and Wilco Louw.
Dawie Theron, the Junior Boks' coach, made eleven changes from the side that played in Saldanha. The visitors also played with much more focus and intensity and the home team had to work hard for each point.
South Africa Under-20 lifted the tempo in the latter part of the second half, when Theron made several changes from the bench. The extra momentum helped the team to finally pull away from Argentina, who threatened with a courageous comeback midway through the second half.
Echardt Rodrigo and Schulz German scored a try each for the visitors to reduce the deficit at one stage to 34-14.
Afterwards, Theron said although he was happy with the second consecutive win, he was however less impressed with the squad's overall performance.
"We knew they would be much more stronger in the second match, but we made it difficult for ourselves out there. "We did not create enough quick ball to release our strong backline, so that is something we will have to work on in the next few days before our last match," explained Theron.

Antique and Vintage Cribbage Sets
To understand the card game cribbage, one needs to understand its creator, 17th century Englishman John Suckling, who was widely considered an unabashed rake. Rich, handsome, and a talented writer, Suckling was notorious for his quick wit, his womanizing ways, and his expertise at gambling in card and dice games. While he was well-liked and known to be generous with his money, most shopkeepers knew he couldn't be trusted.
Suckling was knighted in 1630, the same year he created cribbage. Legend has it that he gave away a significant number of marked card decks to aristocrats around the England. It is believed he amassed a fortune fleecing said noblemen, by traveling the countryside and offering to play them cribbage for money. He finally fell into disgrace in 1641 when he was accused of conspiring to free his friend, the Earl of Stafford, who was jailed in the Tower of London. After he fled to Paris, Suckling is thought to have poisoned himself at the young age of 33.
Charles Dickens' solidified cribbage's immortality in "The Old Curiosity Shop," the story of an eccentric shop worker named Richard Swiveller who teaches a young slave girl he dubs "The Marchioness" how to play the game.
Cribbage is actually a simple variation on a Tudor-era game known as Noddy. The earliest version of cribbage dealt five cards to each player, whereas Noddy was played with three cards a piece. Five-card cribbage requires each player to discard one card face-down into the "crib," which belongs to the dealer. These days, cribbage is often played with six cards as well, with two discarded face-down into the crib. Cribbage scoring is based on the order in which the players lay down their remaining cards face up, and each player receives points for sequences totalling 15 or 31 points, as well as runs and pairs.
The most uniquely collectible aspect of cribbage is its scoring board, usually a piece of wood with series of holes called "streets" that hold scoring pegs called "spilikins." This score-keeping system likely predates the game, as similar objects have been found in Egyptian tombs. Each player has two spilikins that leapfrog over each other, which helps keep track of the previous score. If an opponent fails to peg their points, a player can call out "muggins" and score those unclaimed points.
The winner of a cribbage game is the player who gets to 121 points first. An early cribbage board-design featured an equilateral triangle with two row of forty holes on each side. The classic cribbage board design is usually just a piece of wood about a foot long and 4 inches wide with two sets of 60 holes divided into five-point sections. "Pegging-out" holes at the end of the board are used to indicate when a player has reached 60 points and is counting points in the opposite direction.
Some antique cribbage boards feature a third track of holes where each player has another peg to keep track of how many games he's won. Newer, vividly colored board designs in pl...
While wood is the most popular material, some antique cribbage boards were made of ivory, bone, or animal horns, like the scrimshaw cribbage boards made from carved whalebone or walrus tusks. The spilikins, too, may be made of wood, ivory, bone, plastic, or metal—some are even carved into shapes like horse heads.

What people with newly diagnosed MS (and their families and friends) need to know
Wollin, Judy, Dale, Helen, Spencer, Nancy, & Walsh, Anne M. (2000) What people with newly diagnosed MS (and their families and friends) need to know. International Journal of MS Care, 2(3).
|PDF (134kB)
The aim of the study was to identify from people with MS and their families, what information, in what format and when in the course of the disease they felt would assist the newly diagnosed person with MS and their family. A state wide cross sectional self-report study design was utilised for this research project. Thirty-four people with MS and 18 family members participated in the research proper. Participants self selected. The people with MS and family and friends who participated in this research wish to be provided with a range of information. They recommended that the newly diagnosed and their families be provided with information that reflects their personal needs, be provided in person in both group and individual sessions and include research aimed at cures and therapies, counselling and support services early in the course of the disease.

Griswold-Zepp awardees will teach nonprofits how to harness power of social media
English majors Megan Franey and Sara Krome, and Megan Robinson, who is majoring in English and Spanish, said they will teach a series of workshops in the spring and purchase equipment – such as handheld video recorders, flash drives and camera stands – to be given to the nonprofit participants.
McDaniel President Roger Casey (left to right), students Megan Robinson, Sara Krome and Megan Franey, Associate Professor of English Julia Jasken and Provost Tom Falkner. The Griswold-Zepp Award is given annually to support student volunteerism.
The award will cover the project's full cost, which is estimated at about $2,800.
In their Griswold-Zepp application, the students wrote that because nonprofits are often staffed by part-time volunteers, the workshops could be especially useful.
"Nonprofits often lack the time to learn new technologies that would allow them to communicate with members of their organizations in the most effective way possible," they wrote. "In addition, these organizations often have limited budgets and cannot afford the technologies such as relevant software and (handheld) video recorders."
The students say their project is designed to help nonprofits by teaching them how to harness the power of social networking technologies to better communicate with the public; helping them develop a basic understanding of video editing and design; and showing them how to produce a four-minute promotional video for their organizations.
"We hope they'll take these skills and be able to use them to help their groups," Robinson said during a presentation ceremony on campus at the Center for Faculty Excellence in Hoover Library.
McDaniel President Roger Casey offered his congratulations and added, "I know there are many great things ahead" for the participating community nonprofits because of the work that the students will do thanks to the Griswold-Zepp Award.
For their parts, the students say they hope to learn as well from the experience. They aim to develop a deeper understanding of the communication and marketing needs of nonprofits and how social networking and other Internet software can improve their communication. They say they also see the project as an opportunity to create and participate in something that will benefit the community now and in the years to come.
Ideally, they say, the project will be replicated by other McDaniel students.
The Griswold-Zepp Award was established to honor Earl Griswold and Ira Zepp, long-time faculty advisors for SOS/Hinge, a community service and volunteerism group. The selection process focuses on the project that most strongly exemplifies the true spirit of volunteerism and community service.

Dude, pot could be legal everywhere soon.
That's the sentiment expressed by advocates and experts in reaction to the recent votes in Washington and Colorado to legalize marijuana, which have re-energized the discussion about whether pot should be legalized once and for all in America.
"It's clear and it has been clear now for a number of years that we are at a tipping point when it comes to a majority of Americans' view toward the way we treat marijuana in this country," Paul Armentano, deputy director of the pot lobby group Norml, told ABC News.

NCR veteran ranger (NCR ranger combat armour) - Fallout New Vegas
|I first wore this costume to MCM October expo 2011. It was OK, but there are plenty of things I wanted to improve on.
I only started playing Fallout with Fallout 3 becuase a friend showed me it and I got hooked. I would love to one day make a set of power armour, but that's not happening any time soon. Instead I'm going for the easier NCR Ranger combat armour.
Having now worn this to MCM October 2012, I might retire it. I've hopefully got some good photos, and I had a blast wearing it both times, but it's so uncomfortable to wear - I'm not good having to look through lenses, the chestplate stops me sitting down easilly and the holster kept falling off. At the very least I won't wear it again until I manage to fix a lot of things.
looking forward to a NCR ally. godspeed! make it look ring a ding!
loving it so far :) keep up the goodd work :D
Hi this is looking great so far,body armour especially! I've only recently joined cosplayisland,and am amazed by the talent thats here! Hope to see the finished costume soon,well done. Regards nafnamtab
this should be interesting, looking forward to this.
Looking cool, if you're looking for some serious glue try Evo-stik impact adhesive it works great on (certain) foams (you'll want to try it on a test piece first).
These progress pics are looking excellent hun, man i wish i had skills like you :D
This is looking fabulous!! I'm making the same armour for expo so hopefully we'll run into each other and get some snaps! Can't wait to see more progress, keep it up! -Phi
Fwoah, I've been keeping an eye on this- so excited to see it in person! Expo isn't far off now =] Keep it up! -Phi
thanks for the nice comments everyone ^_^ Phixix - are you still planning to do the same armour? If so I can't wait to see it and I hope we get some piccies ^_^. And thank you for your comments too ^_^
Not a problem, and indeed I am! ^^ Had a bit of a duster jacket fail today (I swear I'm not destined to have one -__-; ) otherwise it's coming along nicely. We must organize a mini-photoshoot or something!! -Phi
Amazing O_o Mr New Vegas would consider you one of the people whom his love for is to strong! :)
I love this series so much :) costume looks awesome!
You looked great! The armour looked so well made! :O Shame I couldn't look at it more XD
It all turned out so amazing XD Very well done! -Phi
this looks awsome
wooooooooooooooow!! I'm extremely impressed!!
Really cool, two thumbs up XD
Oooh! This looks amazing! Great work. Love the breastplate particularly :)
Shopping ListWe're very sorry, but we've temporarily disabled this feature while we fix some bugs. Thank you for your patience.
Progress Journal
New helmet and mask (Posted 5th October 2012)
Well, so much happier with how this looks compared to the old one.
Where last time I had red pespex lenses, it was too easy to see my eyes. After consulting a few lovely people who helped me, I've used reflective red window film for the eyes this time. You're meant to attach it to the lenses, but I ran out of time and was terrible at that anyway, so the film is just help taught between the foam frames - it seems to work :)
Gun (Posted 5th October 2012)
Right, almost finished the gun. This is a toy pistol very kindly given to me by Rob - I don't know how he manages to find such cool guns in toyshops up north, but I couldn't find anything locally.
October 2012 (Posted 30th May 2012)
So, pictured is the basis for my re-wear of this for October 2012 - a new toy gun very kindly given to me by Rob, and a replacement helmet from Codename for the one that never arrived. Obviously both need painting, but other than that should be fine.
List of other improvements to be done:
Also, Xero will be cosplaying Boone in the ranger armour - so basically the same as this but with the beret and sunglasses. While he plans to make the armour himself, I'll be doing the coat and straps, so I'll post up that one too.
Lots of progress! Woo (Posted 26th August 2011)
Well, it's been quite a while since I put up a journal for this costume (oops).
Progress - 9/8/11 (Posted 9th August 2011)
Slow progress on this costume since I've been working on my MGS1 Meryl, but I finally have something to show - I've cut out all the foam pieces for the chestplate and arm guards. I've also cut a piece of heavy duty canvas to glue them to - combined with enough webbing and elastic around the back, this'll make it hug close to my form without being too thick.
Progress so far (Posted 31st July 2011)
Well, the fabric arrived and was the wrong colour. The replacement was still not the colour I expected, but it'll do. So fabric is sorted out. foam arrived too.
Main actual progress is in the form of the chest templates, which are ready to be cut out of foam. I've also done a quick gas mask prototype based on a pepakura file that I found. I'm going to change it a fair bit before cutting out a final template, which I will then cut out and coat in resin or similar to make it durable enough.
I've also decided that I don't want a plastic rubbishy helmet for this, so I'm going to splash out on an airsoft helmet or similar, which unfortunately bumps up the price ridiculously.

You know what I do on New Year's Eve every year? Not much. Sometimes I'll go out to dinner or to a small gathering with friends, something I would enjoy just as much on any random night of the year. This year I stayed home, for obvious reasons. And the morning after I read this post from Conor Friedersdorf, which is pretty spot-on:
On December 31, mediocre restaurants throughout America string absurd velvet ropes outside their doors, inflate black and white balloons as decoration, and charge three times the usual price for the same old fare plus bad champagne. Is it any wonder that our elders, as they grow older and wiser, opt to stay home and turn in before midnight? America's most iconic New Year's Eve celebration, the one that captures the attention of the whole country, has massive crowds gathering in New York City's most garish neighborhood, where they watch a large ball drop as C-list celebrities narrate on TV. The typical NYC dweller can't be lured to Times Square for dinner on an ordinary evening, so I can't imagine how pre-New Year's conversations go for those who attend. "Would you like to stand out in the freezing cold for hours with no place to sit or use the bathroom and drunks pressed against you on all sides?"
Even more bizarre is the fact that Californians watch a tape-delayed rebroadcast of the spectacle as the clock strikes midnight on the West Coast, with whole parties pausing to gather around the television. "Hey, quiet down," people actually say, "Ryan Seacrest is about to come on!"
If you ever hear me utter the words "Ryan Seacrest is about to come on," it will certainly be milliseconds before I change the channel. All the network New Year's Eve shows are unwatchable, with the broadcast networks being so bad that Kathy Griffin on CNN is not, for once, the most annoying person to watch. Do we really need to hear Train, or worse Cee Lo Green, tormenting John Lennon's Imagine? Are there people who really get excited when they hear, "We'll be back after this commercial break with Pitbull"?
And even if I lived in New York, the thought of going down to Times Square to watch the ball drop is about as appealing to me as getting a hernia operation without painkiller. Okay, so the thought of going to Times Square, which has become the world's largest mall, at any time is about that appealing. And yet I still love Vegas, which is even worse in that regard. What, you expect me to be consistent? And get off my lawn!

Beautiful film, and a nice score, with one of the few Jennifer Jones performances I can stomach. I was amazed by the difference between the U.S. version and the original film - I was unaware of the hacksaw approach of Selznick - and the two are night and day, and this one is right up there with the best Brit films.

As I've not the facility with which differentiating a Shropshire sound from say, a Devonshire accent, as a native skill, her lack of verisimilitude went right over this desert rat's head. Hmmm - I'll bet that's often an extra bar to clear in the suspension of disbelief in a lot British films for native speakers. I know there are some real awful attempts at regional accents in films from Murica that are extremely vexing for me, and I've had many a more discerning friend from the Deep South comment on this very same thing. My favorite moment tho, was watching a Spanish-language film set in Mexico somewhere with an extremely critical friend, who whispered the entire time about the various actors regional accents, Dominican, El Salvadoran, etc., and at the end she said, "That was a totally unbelievable film!" - and when I told her it seemed pretty good to me, "Then it's a good thing I didn't translate it for you, too. Really, Rob, if you insist on seeing these, at least let me do that next time - at least you'll understand why the language is going to hell!"

United States Grand Prix Open Press Call Quotes Michael Schumacher
Thursday, June 17, 2004
Q: Michael, back at the U.S. Grand Prix, is this circuit special for you?
Schumacher: It is. It has been last year, definitely. Obviously I look forward to have another special one this year. The emotion of the fans was great, the reception, the show we did on the race was very good.
Q: You seem to be relaxed here in North America, why is that?
Schumacher: Maybe it is because I am. It's not a reason for North America, in general I am relaxed.
Q: The fact that the race is being run in summertime, do you think perhaps it will make it closer like last year due to the hotter temperatures?
Schumacher: Well, right now it's raining, anyway, and if it keeps on raining we'll have to find out what that means. It's a good question, we'll have to find out. We haven't been running in very hot conditions. It's a question mark whether it's going to be very hot because I've heard it's supposed to turn cooler over the weekend now.
Q: Have you spoken to Ralf since Montreal? Do you know how he's handling that?
Schumacher: It's obviously a big disappointment for him. His season wasn't going very well. He had been a little disappointed thinking he had a chance to win the race, and becoming second, although it was a good result for him. And then even being taken away then. It sort of fits for the season he has had so far. He did his effort, and there is nothing he can do beyond that.
Q: Do you feel almost invincible this year?
Schumacher: No. No, I don't feel that way. I feel pretty normal. I just do what I can.
Q: Do you feel a certain degree of anonymity across the United States? Is that why you feel relaxed here?
Schumacher: I'm relaxed as well in Europe, though it is interesting and nice to be moving along and not be recognized.
Q: Is it true you went to Texas Motor Speedway stood in line (at a Richard Petty Driving Experience ride, but he had to leave after standing in line for an hour) two years ago, and nobody even recognized you?
Schumacher: Yup, that is true.
Q: Did you find it very odd?
Schumacher: I found it very nice.
Q: What is it you feel you do that has allowed you to achieve what you have?
Schumacher: At the end of the day, I just move a bit quicker around in circles. But, I just have a good year, for whatever reason. That doesn't explain the last year, which was sort of more difficult than I had other years and sort of coming back more to what I used to be.
Q: As Jenson Button waits to win his first Grand Prix do you remember what it was like to have that frustration as that first win continued to elude you?
Schumacher: I think where he is, with the possibilities he has, he is just looking forward to the moment when it will happen. Racing is like sport, you can never predict when it will happen. I believe is very motivated rather due to the fact he hasn't done it yet.
Q: After winning six world titles are there any other worlds you want to conquer?
Schumacher: Just keep enjoying, honestly. Just keep enjoying, that's the main thing.
Q: So far, with the one-lap Michelin advantage (in qualifying), you've had a margin to do a short stint first or do a two-stop race while everybody's on low fuel. Are you concerned that if McLaren and Williams might progress with qualifying that you could be qualifying 10th or 11th?
Schumacher: We've done eight races (this year). If you take all the eight races, there was maybe two Grand Prixs where we might have had slight disadvantage in qualifying for the fact you were mentioning, and for the others we were probably quite dominant. So I don't think we need to be too much concerned.
Q: On these runs in qualifying, do you feel you can get the Bridgestones to work?
Schumacher: The Bridgestones will work in the race anyway, so when it doesn't work in qualifying we'll hopefully make it work in the race.
Q: The current point system doesn't seem to reward the winner, do you feel the points should reflect winning like they used to?
Schumacher: I think 'yes,' the others think 'no.'
Q: What should be done?
Schumacher: As you said, have another point system.
Q: Last year's USGP was a very important race (for the championship), what do you remember of that weekend?
Schumacher: Having a very pessimistic feeling and coming home with much more than I anticipated.
Q: This morning, Ross Brawn said you are more enthusiastic this year. Why is that?
Schumacher: I don't know. The matter of fact is that straight from starting with the testing I was on the pace, everything was going well, and I felt well. Last year, for whatever reason, here and there, there was a problem with the car. I couldn't run, and it was all a little more difficult. Sometimes you have those moments where things are difficult, and now they're back to what it used to be. More normal, and everything goes my way.
Q: In the United States, Indianapolis (Motor Speedway) is such a special place. How does it rank with you, coming over here?
Schumacher: The unfortunate thing is we obviously don't race the real Indianapolis. We have our own circuit, which is a circuit done within the existing one, so it's sort of compromised, as it ended up with. For us, Formula One races, you sort of always talk about Spa, Suzuka, those sort of circuits. For the cars we have, this is the ultimate challenge. Indianapolis is a nice Grand Prix, a lot of historic background. It's great for us to be here. It's not the challenge of the other two I explained.
Q: The success this season the success must be satisfied because at the end of last year people were writing that Ferrari seemed to be slipping?
Schumacher: We didn't anticipate to win as many races as we have. We go back to January testing, we were very pessimistic on this season. We thought it was going to be a very, very tough one; it's not going to be the way it has gone. So we're obviously very happy.
Q: Do you attribute that to Bridgestone?
Schumacher: You can't put it down just to the tire. We have done a beautiful car, which at presentation everybody felt it was not really a big obvious step. It just looked sort of similar to the old one, but on circuit it performed very well. And the tires Bridgestone has made did theirs (well), so both together are responsible for the success.
Q: Would you like to compete in the Indy 500 one year?
Schumacher: No.
Q: We seem to be going to longer and longer Formula One calendars. What is your feeling on that?
Schumacher: That's just one race more than I'm used to, honestly. No problem at all. More races, fewer testing.
Q: Not even 20 races, too much?
Schumacher: As long as we have less testing, no problem.

Did You Know: iCloud Email Sending Limits
I friend had a problem with his iCloud email account the other day: he got a message that he had exceeded his daily message sending limit. It turned out to be a glitch, but I looked into these limits, and found that, to my surprise, there are such things with iCloud email.
According to Apple, each day, the following limits are in place:
- The total number of messages you can send each day (200 messages)
- The number of recipients to whom you can send each day (1000 recipients)
- The maximum number of recipients per message (100 recipients)
- The size of incoming and outgoing messages (20 MB)
While three of those limits make sense – the number of recipients, and the size of messages – the first doesn't. Most people won't send 200 emails a day, but it is conceivable that, when working on a project, you may have that many messages to send in a given day.
Apple naturally has these limits in place to prevent spam, and they won't affect many people, but you do need to be aware that, if you send a lot of emails, you may hit a limit.
If you get a message saying "You have exceeded your daily sending limit," and you know you haven't hit any limits, see Apple's support document for ways to fix the issue.
