NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Citigroup ( C) has confirmed that about $2.7 million was stolen from 3,400 customers in May following a major data breach. Citi had had previously said that the data breach had exposed 360,083 bank accounts, revealing names, account numbers and email addresses of customers. Citi said other sensitive information including social security numbers, dates of birth, card expiration dates and card security codes had not been exposed. However, it now appears that customers did suffer financial losses. A Citi spokesperson said he could not comment on how the money had been stolen, but that the breach itself had not contributed any information that was sufficient to perpetrate fraud. Citi has said before that customers will not be liable for any fraud on their accounts and are "100% protected". Citi has come under attack
for failing to disclose the breach sooner. . The bank defended its response to the hack, saying it had immediately rectified the data breach upon discovery and had launched an immediate investigation to determine the number of accounts and information hacked. --Written by Shanthi Bharatwaj in New York >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Shanthi Bharatwaj. >To follow the writer on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/shavenk. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: email@example.com.

I used this product for a musical that I was in. When applied with a damp sponge it went on easily. The best application for me was to dab it to distribute it evenly. Set with some Ben nye setting powder and it never moved. The best thing I found is that it was easy to wash off with soap and water. Highly recommend!
David's Review
December 23, 2015
I use this for cosplaying the Makaras and honestly it's the best white face paint I've been able to get my hands on. Nothing else goes on quite as even and nothing else stands up to how long it lasts. I will say that it is a bit hard to get off and you may find white paint in your eyelashes the next day, but I guess that just proves that it is a worth while investment. Truly can't get any better than this.

Berlin • After spending nearly two weeks underground, an injured German caver was hauled out of the country's deepest cavern Thursday by a multinational rescue operation that involved more than 700 people.
Johann Westhauser, an experienced caver, had gone into the Riesending cave system in the Alps with two companions to carry out research and measurements. He was hit in the head during a June 8 rock fall while nearly 1,000 meters (3,280 feet) underground.
After lengthy preparations, rescue teams five days later began the arduous task of hauling him up through a labyrinth of narrow passages and precipitous vertical shafts.

Washington, DC—Nevada Senator Harry Reid released the following statement today regarding Tea Party Republicans derailing negotiations between Democrats and mainstream Republicans over a responsible budget:
"I am extremely disappointed that after weeks of productive negotiations with Speaker Boehner, Tea Party Republicans are scrapping all the progress we have made and threatening to shut down the government if they do not get all of their extreme demands. The division between the Tea Party and mainstream Republicans is preventing us from reaching a responsible solution on a long-term budget that will make smart cuts while protecting American jobs, and prevented negotiations from taking place over the weekend even as the clock ticks toward a government shutdown. Apparently these extremists would rather shut down the government and risk sending our economy back into a recession than work with Democrats or even their own leadership to find a responsible compromise.
"For the sake of our economy, it's time for mainstream Republicans to stand up to the Tea Party and rejoin Democrats at the table to negotiate a responsible solution that cuts spending while protecting jobs."

Regional Reviews: New Jersey
High School Musical Live! and Lively on Stage at Paper Mill
Also see Bob's review of It Ain't Nothin' But the Blues
Originality is not the point here. High School Musical recycles plot and style elements from Grease, several other stage musicals, and enough family films to fill a catalogue. It also recreates the Disney Channel film on which it is based along with its major characters as closely and accurately as any musical stage adaptation reasonably could.
High Schoolers Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez meet cute when they are selected to sing karaoke together at a ski resort party. Upon his return to Albuquerque's East High School, Troy finds that Gabriella has just transferred into the school. Troy is the star of the school basketball team and the son of its coach. Gabriella is a brilliant student who is being sought by the more scholarly girls to participate in the "science decathlon." When Troy and Gabriella both decide to audition for the leads the school musical, each of their crowds, "The Jocks" and "The Brainiacs", selfishly plot to break them up to stop them from participating in the school musical.
Sharpay and her acolyte brother Ryan are the leaders of a third crowd of students, "The Thespians." They are the perennial leads in the school musical. Sharpay, who has her eye on Troy, will stop at nothing to make certain no one usurps her place as the star of the show.
For the most part, the stage cast duplicates the look and persona of their screen counterpoints with accuracy, and often out perform musically the technically enhanced screen vocals. Chase Peacock (Troy) sings strongly and displays solid musical stage presence and an individual personality. Sydney Morton (Gabriella) looks just like her screen counterpart and, although she performs nicely, there is a lack of wattage in her performance. Justin Keyes (Chad), Sean Samuels (Zeke), Krystal Joy Brown (Taylor) and Joline Mujica (Martha) as the young couple's best friends duplicate their screen counterpoints with eye-catching aplomb and bright enthusiasm.
Bailey Hanks (Sharpay), although a bit more over the top than necessary, enthusiastically captures the comic tone of her character. Logan Hart (Ryan) is likeable, but cannot match the show-stealing excellence of his small screen counterpart. Stephanie Pam Roberts (Kelsi) is letter perfect in recapturing the look and persona in the diminished role of the student show author. Joseph Morales (Jack) is amusing in the added role of the student announcer for the school public address system.
There is one performance and role interpretation that far exceeds that in the original film. Donna English (Ms. Darbus) has abandoned the extreme and extremely annoying caricature of the drama teacher, adding to both her humor and likeability. No more an addled martinet in league with Sharpay in discriminating against Troy and Gabriella, English's drama teacher is now a sympathetic victim of Sharpay's manipulations. Its too bad the Disney team didn't write a song, a true theatre song, for this role.
One of the best qualities of both the movie and stage musical is the sweetness of its characters and storytelling. Even at the beginning, there is little animosity among the various school groups, and, in short order, friendships are forged across group lines within the student body believably and with ease. In many of today's high schools, tolerance among various crowds is more common than the mean spirited divisiveness which is depicted in other teen musicals which may well be a step behind the curve. There is almost none of the nasty, vulgar put down "humor" that informs most of today's youth oriented comedy in the film. There are but two or three such lines in the stage musical. They likely are included to placate older teenagers. If lines invoking a barf bag, mucous and flatulence are in the film, then I didn't watch it closely enough and stand corrected. In any event, High School Musical on stage would be an even better entertainment without them. Still, High School Musical must be commended for promoting positive values in a musical which provides irresistible entertainment for its young target audience.
David Simpatico has faithfully adapted Peter Barsocchini's screenplay. While the set up and motivations are somewhat more difficult to follow than they are in the film, a couple of small plot adjustments increase credibility. Director Mark Hoebee has kept everything moving briskly, most ably obtaining polished and enthusiastic performances from his very young, largely unseasoned 31 member strong cast. Choreographer Denis Jones has done a fine job of providing lively choreography with a fully professional sheen. The skimpy but adequate scenery was originally designed by Kenneth Foy for Atlanta's Theatre of the Stars, and re-built for the Pittsburgh CLO. The scenery, whose major motif is school lockers, gets the job done.
Paper Mill's stage production is decidedly a better entertainment than the Disney Channel original movie of the same name on which it is based. The movie scores points with clearer storytelling, added colors with the larger presence of adults (on stage, Gabriella's mother does not appear, and Coach Bolton is less dimensional), and an excellent number which Sharpay and Ryan perform for their "call back" which is buried by the manner in which it is presented on stage.
However, the likeable and harmless movie is a teen romance with music rather than a fully realized musical. About half its eight songs are sung as either audition songs or karaoke. Although there are only three additional songs in the stage version (and the audition and karaoke contexts remain), the additional songs, extended musical numbers and a closing mega mix manage to turn High School Musical into a full-fledged stage musical. The pop score by a small army of composers and lyricists is bland, but peppy. As often happens when I see pop song style musicals, I sometimes found myself wondering why the same lyric is repeated so boringly often. Whereas the pleasant and harmless movie never raised my pulse, the stage musical strongly rises to the occasion of the first act finale with its version of "Stick to the Status Quo." This is an upbeat, lively dance number which clearly finds the students dismissing the notion of staying locked into a stereotype and hiding their interest and talents in areas which extend outside the boundaries which define their group.
At the intermission, I spoke separately with two young people who were attending the opening with their families, believing that their take on High School Musical would be more relevant than mine. In response to my questions, Teddy, age 11, opined, "I like it a lot. I've seen a couple of shows before, and I would like to see more in the future." His mother reminded Teddy that the last show that he had seen was Mamma Mia!. Bridget, also age 11, estimated that she had seen seven previous shows and added, "I really like it ... the scenery, the songs and most of all the choreography and I definitely want to see more shows." Bridget's mother added that this was her first time at Paper Mill and that she was very impressed with the quality of its production. I took the opportunity to recommend Paper Mill's spring musical 1776 as an excellent musical for families. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the new audience which Paper Mill is now attracting returned for that great family friendly classic? I had intended to speak to additional youngsters after the end of the performance, but my visual and aural observation of the delight of so many youngsters during the musical's later stages rendered further such efforts superfluous.
What makes the Paper Mill High School Musical special is the transporting delight of expertly performed, directed and choreographed live musical theatre entertainment that cannot be matched on any screen. The delighted squeals and giggles, and smiles on the faces of the many youngsters in attendance as "the brainiacs" and "the jocks" enter the auditorium to watch, along with them, as Troy and Gabriella's call back audition for the leads in the school musical will delight all, but the most stony hearted. The extended and expertly choreographed finale, "We're All in This Together," brought a delighted smile to the face of this critic who is certainly not in the demographic at which High School Musical is most successfully aimed. As it is giving Paper Mill its biggest box office success in recent memory, if you are inclined to see The High School Musical, it would be wise to purchase your tickets as soon as possible.

Open Thread
For general discussion and debate. Possible talking point: the Clintons are in trouble over some potentially racist remarks...
A series of comments from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, her husband and her supporters are spurring a racial backlash and adding a divisive edge to the presidential primary as the candidates head south to heavily African-American South Carolina.
The comments, which ranged from the New York senator appearing to diminish the role of Martin Luther King Jr. in the civil rights movement — an aide later said she misspoke — to Bill Clinton dismissing Sen. Barack Obama's image in the media as a "fairy tale" — generated outrage on black radio, black blogs and cable television. And now they've drawn the attention of prominent African-American politicians.
Will this be serious for Hillary's campaign, or will the media, as usual, give a Democrat a pass for racially insensitive remarks -- especially America's first "black" president?
On the other hand, is this whole "controversy" being advanced by Obama supporters -- paint the Clintons as racist in order to assist a black candidate?

"The Globalization Tapes" were made in collaboration with those a little further down the pile, closer to the mud (and the rubber and the oil), closer to the memories of the massacre that cleared the way for Indonesia's 'modernization'. This film was shot by actual Indonesian workers who after working in the fields each day would work on the film.
Using their own forbidden history as a case study, the Indonesian filmmakers trace the development of contemporary globalization from its roots in colonialism to the present. Through chilling first-hand accounts, hilarious improvised interventions, collective debate and archival collage, "The Globalization Tapes" exposes the devastating role of militarism and repression in building the "global economy", and explores the relationships between trade, third-world debt, and international institutions like the IMF and the World Trade Organization.
Sharman Sinaga's granddaughter looks bored as her grandfather demonstrates for the camera his favored technique of market liberalization: holding union activists upside down in flooded fields. He mimics their gargles as they choke in the mud. He could hold down two or three at a time he boasts; he seems faintly nostalgic in the dim light and the smoke; his only regret, that his arms and knees aren't what they used to be. The orders to hold people upside-down came from the top, he tells us, from Surhato; they came also with support from high on Capitol Hill.
Plantation workers spontaneously stage a satirical commercial for the pesticide that poisons them; the filmmakers pose as World Bank agents with offers to 'develop' local businesses - offers which are both brutal and absurd, yet, tempting, nonetheless. The Globalization Tapes is a testament to the intelligence, humor, integrity and creativity of its makers and their community.
"If we are united in our struggle against worker oppression, united in our search for truth amidst lies, united for a truly participatory democratic economic system, the possibilities are only limited by our courage, our determination, and our capacity to imagine." - Su Karman, narrator of The Globalization Tapes and President of Perbbuni, the Independent Plantation Workers' Union of Sumatra.

Kiefer Sutherland has been confirmed as the new voice of Snake/Big Boss in the upcoming Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
In trailers for MGS5, both Big Boss and a possibly-new character named "Ishmael" were apparently voiced by Sutherland, though there was no official word from Konami on the cast change-up. Actor and screenwriter David Hayter has long held the role of Solid Snake / Big Boss, and his apparent replacement has raised a few eyebrows.
His own included. After the Sutherland-voiced trailer dropped, Hayter expressed surprise on his Twitter account and said that he wasn't even asked to return before conceding "Well look, at least I had a good run."
Though it was thought to be a possible form of misdirection at the time, it is now confirmed that Sutherland will take over the role of Big Boss. Both he and series creator Hideo Kojima confirmed it at the Konami Pre-E3 show.
Fans on social media haven't taken the news well. On an unofficial Metal Gear Solid Facebook fanpage, comments like "How do I dislike this status?" and " Boooooo David hayter or no one!" are not entirely uncommon.
But there are still a lot of unanswered questions, especially since Kojima has said that the Solid Snake character will appear in the Metal Gear franchise again at some point (despite previously retiring the character after MGS4). David Hayter may have lost the role of Big Boss, but will he return as Solid Snake at some point?
The most acceptable explanation for the voice change we've seen thus far can be found at a GameFAQS forum, here. User "MajorZero" explains:
"The Big Boss we will get to know through the game and at the end of it will not be someone we idolize or enjoy, he will be making decisions that we might not even agree with, decisions that in his mind are justified (though later in mgs4, he admits he was wrong). The change in voice actor is a reflection of that, The Big Boss we end up with by the end of this game will not be someone we are familiar with or can identify with, he will be a totally different person, and not in a positive way."
What do you think? Are you upset that David Hayter definitely won't be returning for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, or is it time for a new voice (Kiefer Sutherland's) in the role? Sound off!

Lemongrass-Infused Snails with Spicy Soy Sauce
Live snails are traditionally used in this Vietnamese recipe, but Corinne Trang finds that canned snails work very well. The snails are chopped and mixed with pork, chile, ginger and other flavorings, then stuffed into snail shells and steamed. A lemongrass handle makes removing the filling easy.
- Servings: 8
- 2 fresh lemongrass stalks
- 1/2 pound ground pork
- One 7-ounce can large Burgundy snails—drained, rinsed and minced (see Note)
- 2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
- 2 Thai chiles, halved and seeded, 1 minced and 1 julienned
- 1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 24 snail shells
- Lettuce or cabbage leaves, for steaming
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 scallion, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced on the diagonal
- 1/3 cup soy sauce, preferably Chinese thin
How to make this recipe
Trim the root ends of the lemongrass and remove a total of 8 long outer leaves from the stalks. Tear the leaves into three 3-inch-long strands. Trim off and discard all but the bottom 3 inches of the stalks and finely chop 1 of the tender bulbs. Thinly slice the remaining bulb on the diagonal. In a mini processor, puree the chopped lemongrass to a fine paste.
In a bowl, combine the ground pork with the snails, ginger, minced chile, sesame oil, salt, pepper and lemongrass paste.
Gently bend a lemongrass strand in half and stick it inside a snail shell, bent side in, and with the 2 ends protruding. Stuff the shell with 2 teaspoons of the pork-and-snail filling, working it between the lemongrass ends. Wipe the rim of the shell. Repeat with the remaining lemongrass strands, shells and filling.
Line a steamer rack with lettuce leaves and set the stuffed shells on top. Steam the snails until hot to the touch and cooked through, about 8 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a small saucepan. Add the sliced lemongrass, julienned chile and scallion and cook over moderate heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour the soy sauce into a heatproof serving bowl. Stir in the scallion-and-chile oil and serve with the snails.

It is with sorrow that we report that Delbert W. Atwood, Jr., CDP, CSP, of Salt Lake City, UT, passed away at age 84 on June 26, 2011. He was the 1978 DPMA International President.Delbert was deeply involved with data management and computer operations for various companies in the Salt Lake City area. He was the first person in Utah to be recognized as a Certified Data Processor (CDP). He was a lifetime member of the Data Processing Management Association, DPMA (which is the former name of the AITP). He served as DPMA International Treasurer and then Vice President. In 1978 he served as International President. At the time of his retirement in 1988, he was the manager of computer system operations for the Utah State Office of Education in Salt Lake City.Delbert was a great advocate for professionalism, belonging to a professional organization, and certification. He authored this article (click on the PDF link) in 1978 on all three of these topics. It is still as relevant and thought provoking today as it was over 30 years ago. A few quotes from the article:
"When you are knowledgeable about a subject, your specialty, and you discuss and share this knowledge with your management, your peers and others, you become a professional. This recognition comes from others and can be helped by your membership in a professional group and your participation in all of the activities the professional group can provide.""Professionalism is sometimes associated with an honor society, or a certification of one type or another....Data processing, through DPMA, has constructed the certificate in Data Processing (CDP) as a test of knowledge in management, systems quantitative and qualitative analysis, programming, and other areas. Many professional groups joined together to form the Institute for Certification of Computer Professionals (ICCP). These groups recognized the need for a professional certificate to assist the individual in his personal development, recognition by his peers, his company or employer, and his development as a professional.""Where do you stand in your own professional development and standing in your company, and within the organization to which you belong? Are you going to classes to get your degree? Are you getting an advanced degree? Are you attending seminars to further your knowledge in your specialty subject matter? In our ever expanding field where specialized knowledge is mandatory, those individuals who demonstrate superior competence in the application of that specialized knowledge reap the rewards of progression.""Do you do your part? Are you becoming the professional your management would like you to become? Do you belong to a professional group, but never go to the meetings? You read they have excellent seminars and workshops, but when was the last time you attended one of them?""I believe that professionalism makes a difference, because an individual who is looked up to, respected by his associates and others, who exhibits the traits that place him a bit above, has a better chance for success and overall happiness in his life." "...certification is...a step toward achieving the recognition and respect of our employers, our employees, and our peers."
Delbert was a true leader of our profession.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
she has 10 days to appeal the reward. if no appeal, how will my daughter get the award from her? does it go thru the DLSE, court, or do we have to contact her to pay the reward ? How do we get the money from her? How long does she have to pay the judgement? What recourse do we have if she doesn't pay the judgement amount?? Thank you so much.
In order for the employer to appeal the award, she must post a bond with the court in the amount of the award, plus pay the filing fee which is currently $435. And, if she loses, she must pay for your daughter's court costs and legal fees should she hire an attorney. So, there is a real disincentive to not appeal the award.
If there is no appeal, the award will turn into a judgment. It may take some time for this to happen. But once it becomes a judgment it starts earning interest at 10%. The simplest thing to do is for your daughter to write a demand letter to the employer giving her a specified time to pay the judgment or she will take enforcement action to collect it. Enforcement starts with obtaining a writ of execution which can be applied against any property which belongs to the employer including bank accounts. To find out the bank account numbers and where the property is located, a judgment debtor examination may be necessary.
Yes, all this can become a bit complicated, which means your daughter may need to hire a collections attorney to assist her. There is also a wealth of material out there on how to collect a judgment she may wish to read up on if she wants to try to do it herself. It may take some time and patience but the judgment will be growing daily all the while, so she needs to be vigilant, if the employer refuses to pay.
They say you get what you pay for, and this response is free, so take it for what it is worth. This is my opinion based on very limited information. My opinion should not be taken as legal advice. For true advice, we would require a confidential consultation where I would ask you questions and get your complete story. This is a public forum, so remember, nothing here is confidential. Nor am I your attorney. I do not know who you are and you have not hired me to provide any legal service. To do so would require us to meet and sign written retainer agreement. My responses are intended for general information only.Ask a similar question
If the employer does not pay, contact the labor board and see if they can help. Otherwise, you would collect it just like any other judgment. Depending on the amount, you might want to talk to a collections attorney.Ask a similar question

2,670: Annual Leave Policy for Faculty
Revised: May 2015
Annual and Terminal Leave for Full-time (1.0 FTE) Faculty
General Provisions:
All faculty members on a full-time 12-month appointment ("A" contract) earn annual leave at the rate of two working days for each full calendar month of service. Annual leave is accrued for the first half of the month (granted on 15th day) and the additional day is accrued for the second half of the month (granted on the last day of the month). Leave may not be taken until it is granted. Prorated credit is earned for partial months of service.
Faculty on an academic year ("B" contract) appointment do not earn annual leave.
Annual leave may be cumulative from year to year, not to exceed 48 days as of the first day of each fiscal year, and any annual leave in excess of 48 days is forfeited on that date. No compensation will be authorized for unused or excess leave at the end of each fiscal year. Earned annual leave shall be taken at a time approved or directed by the supervisor or other appropriate administrative officer. Insofar as possible, approval to use annual leave must be secured in advance, in accordance with the provisions contained in the Board of Regents Handbook, Title 4, Chapter 3, Section 19.2.
Employees shall be given an opportunity to use accumulated annual leave in excess of 48 working days prior to the last day of the fiscal year provided a request for leave is given by the employee no later than April 1 to the supervisor or other appropriate administrative officer.
Annual leave for full-time faculty is used in increments of a half-day or a full-day (see BOR Title 4, Chapter 3, Section 18). Annual leave and personal time away from work duties must be approved in advance by the faculty member's supervisor. The supervisor has sole discretion for approving any time away from work and annual leave. If a period shorter than one-half work day is requested, the supervisor can require a half-day increment of annual leave be requested, taken and deducted from the leave balance.
If while on annual leave a faculty member becomes ill or injured, the employee remains on annual leave for the duration of the original request. Annual leave cannot be converted to sick leave after the annual leave has commenced, unless an illness or injury is approved as FMLA leave.
Faculty on an "A" contract appointment who resign or retire shall be entitled to be paid for unused accrued annual leave up to a maximum of 48 days, unless the supervisor or other appropriate administrative officer directs the employee, in writing, to use all or a portion of the accumulated leave prior to the final date of employment.
Faculty whose contract is being changed from a 12-month ("A" contract) appointment to an academic year ("B" contract) appointment shall be entitled to be paid for unused accumulated leave up to the maximum of 48 days, unless the supervisor or other appropriate administrative officer directs the employee, in writing, to use all or a portion of the accumulated leave prior to the final date of the "A" contract.
Faculty on a 12-month "A" contract appointment who take an approved leave of absence without pay shall be entitled to use accumulated annual leave, with prior approval of the supervisor or other appropriate administrative officer, before going into unpaid status; however, the faculty member shall not be paid for any unused accumulated annual leave before going into unpaid status. Annual leave cannot be earned while on leave without pay.
Faculty on "A" contracts who are on approved sabbatical or professional development leave can accrue annual leave.
Part-time (.50-.99) Faculty Leave Accrual and Usage
Annual leave for faculty members who are less than 1.0 FTE (part-time) or who work a variable schedule, is converted from days to hours for accrual, tracking and usage. This policy and procedure explains how to calculate and charge leave for part-time faculty. Because many part-time faculty work varied schedules (different hours on different days) the length of the work day varies. This policy provides a standard method that shall be used consistently across the institution.
Faculty who are part-time must have an established work schedule.
To calculate leave accrual for part-time faculty:
Part-time Faculty Leave calculation: (16 hrs x FTE = Accrual [in hours])
Example: .60 FTE 16 x .60 = 9.6 hours earned per month of annual and sick leave.
The leave calculation should only be carried to one decimal place.
When annual leave is taken, it must be deducted on an hour for hour basis.
Part-time Faculty Leave Accrual Maximums
The maximum leave accrual for part-time faculty will be prorated based on the faculty member's FTE. The prorating will be based on the maximums for full-time faculty members.
The formula for the prorating is as follows:
Annual Leave: Part-time Faculty Maximum Leave Calculation
(48 days x FTE x 8 hrs = maximum accrual [in hours])
(48 days x .60 x 8 hrs = 230.4 maximum accrual [in hours])
For part-time faculty leave payout will be prorated based on FTE.
Limitation on Transfer of Accrued Annual Leave
Persons employed by the University in positions that earn annual leave may not transfer any earned leave to another university position supported from a different source of funds. Any compensation for accrued leave comes from the same funding source as the salary paid while earning annual leave and must be taken during the employment covered by the funding source.
A faculty member transferring from another NSHE institution in a position that earns annual and sick leave may not transfer any earned leave to a UNR position supported from a different source of funds.
Faculty who transfer from a faculty position to a classified position may transfer remaining annual leave to the classified position subject to the classified maximum accrual limitation of 30 days at the beginning of the calendar year.
Classified staff who transfer from a classified position to a faculty position may transfer all accrued unused annual leave to the faculty appointment subject to the same funding limitations noted above and are subject to faculty accrual limitations which does not allow for more than 48 days to be carried over from one fiscal year to another.

Tripp is a 35 year-old who, despite having a successful career and a way with women, has yet to move out of his parents home. As a last resort, his folks hire a woman whose job involves getting men to finally fly the nest. However, her latest client prov
Over the past few years, the perennial sit-coms that sprout in spring have become so identikit and formulaic that at times it's impossible to tell which one you're actually watching. Thus we have Failure To Launch, which comes along to fill the slot recently occupied by Along Came Polly, Meet The Fockers and countless others — the difference being that this one's just a tad sharper and sassier than most.
Where it succeeds is in a quirky, eccentric supporting cast who look like they're genuinely enjoying themselves — leaving the blander headline stars to play out the all-too-predictable romance bit. Deschanel is a delight as Parker's kooky roommate, who's plagued by a mockingbird that's as rooted to the tree outside her window as McConaughey's protagonist is to his parents' home. And, as Tripp's long-suffering folks, Bates and Bradshaw make for an appealing double-act.
Its main stumbling block, however, is McConaughey himself, who doesn't come across as a natural comedian — at times you find yourself wishing for Owen Wilson. But the film's uneven first half soon gives way to a likeable enough comedy which, while ultimately forgettable, fulfils its potential as acceptable date movie fare.
Flimsy but fun, this rom-com has an enjoyable edge to it just dont expect to remember much about it in the morning.

Broremann The Fisherman - Poem by Oskar Hansen
Broremann the Angler
On the pier where fishing vessels were tied up my brother
sat fishing all the while seagulls kept swooping and shrieking,
he blissfully ignored them. He had no hook at the end of his
line and when asked why he said, I don´t like to hurt the fish.
But crafty little Broremann was not as innocent as you may
think, he didn´t like fish, all those horrible tiny bones,
his mother had sent him down to the pier to try catch some
fish for lunch. He liked sausages with mashed potatoes and
stewed peas, now he could go home tell his mother fish didn´t
bite today, but made sure to put the hook on the line so his
mother could see he was really trying. An old fisherman gave
him two sardines wrapped in a newspaper, but wouldn´t you
know it the pair of sardines somehow slipped out of the paper
and made their way back to the sea.

Lebanese Olympic Beauty Jacky Chamoun in Deep Trouble for Her Topless Video
The Olympics have been pretty wardrobe-malfunction-free so far this year, which is very disappointing to all of us, I'm sure. We were inches away from a nip-slip, but so far, no full-frontal.
Until now.
Lesbian…I mean Lebanese ski champion Jacky Chamoun did a photo shoot for a calendar a few years ago. This is pretty cool, but the best part is that the NSFW behind-the-scenes video from the shoot came out, and she's pretty full-frontal in it!
She's in Sochi now, representing Lebanon in the Winter Olympics, and under a government investigation to make sure this video doesn't "hurt Lebanon's reputation".
Dear Lord, if you want Lebanon to have a great reputation, make sure MORE videos like these are released upon the world! How many people, when asked about Lebanon, immediately say, "They've got a lot of hot chicks there"?
Do yourself a favor, Lebanon: Make Jacky Chamoun your international ambassador, and have her bring her friends, too.
But not that one tagalong that's for the wingman…you know what I'm talking about.

Jan Milby hosted an open house of her new quilt studio, Quilting @ Fashion and Flowers, on Sunday, Nov. 14. She retired in September after thirty-five years of being a hairdresser. For the last thirteen years, Milby had her own shop on the side of her home, which is located at 888 Mudd Lane in Finchville. When she retired, she decided to move her quilting hobby out of her spare bedroom and into her shop.

Can you believe that December is already here? In just a few short days this year will be over and we will be starting 2011. How did that happen? Where did the last year go?
I guess it went to elections and homecomings; it went by in birthdays and in anniversaries; there were a few weddings and way too many funerals. Day by day the year ticks off, and now with Christmas upon us, we are looking forward to a new year. But for a minute, I want us to look back.
Picking out the perfect Christmas tree is serious business for me. Some may find it a trivial chore but I want a tree that will be worth the effort of cleaning, moving furniture, hauling boxes, lights, step ladders and more. But once the mundane is done, then the fun begins. Each ornament that adorns the tree has a story to tell about my grandparents, parents or me. The tree is indeed important because it holds the past. And it must hold the past, in the form of many beloved ornaments, securely and with style.
Every winter we look forward to the pleasures of warming our hands and feet by a blazing fire, mesmerized by the dancing flames.
When buying firewood two factors will determine just how hot your fire is—seasoning and the kind of wood.
Wood is made up of air and cellulose (wood fiber). The more air space that wood has, the less there is to burn. Buying wood with the heaviest/densest per unit volume will keep you toasty.
Osage orange, hickory, black locust, all of the oaks, sugar maple and ash produce hot fires; plus they are easy to split.
Traditions are what make holidays so memorable and fun. Thanksgiving traditions involving family recipes and favorite activities like taking a long walk after dinner or all day card game sessions make the holiday even more meaningful. There is always room for a new tradition to come along that reinforces the meaning of the Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving is just a few days away. The holiday season is about to kick off for real, but before that happens, I just want to stop for a minute and say thanks to a generous and supportive community.
This past Sunday night was the Ministerial Association's annual Thanksgiving Service.
It was probably the best attended service we have had in several years.
I want to thank Pastor Johnny Hood and Grace Chapel for sharing their church and their talents with us.
Jesse and Frank James did a considerable amount of their hiding in northeast Nelson County around Chaplin and in the Samuels-Deatsville section not far from Bardstown. The area was friendly territory for the soldiers of fortune where families named Dawson, Samuels, Sayers, Pence and Hall provided food and lodging.
The Tom and Nancy Dawson log house still stands where Confederate Guerrilla Captain William Quantrill wrote love poems to Nancy Dawson, their granddaughter.
Even if we cook a small turkey or have lots of guest, there always seems to be a lot of turkey left over after Thanksgiving. I love turkey sandwiches, but there are only so many I can eat. My solution for using up our leftover turkey is tortilla soup. I found the recipe twelve years ago in Southern Living magazine, and I adapted the recipe to use leftovers.
The original recipe called for chicken instead of turkey. The year I found the recipe, my mother had smoked the holiday turkey and thought the leftovers would be excellent in tortilla soup.
Did you know that the cranberry used to be called the "craneberry?" When the colonists first learned of this berry from their American Indian hosts in the New World they thought the blooms of the native shrub looked like the long neck and bill of the crane. Eventually, as language goes, it was shortened to cranberry.
SrA Erin Thompson (second from left) recently completed Airmen Leadership School (ALS) at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio. This is the first of four professional education programs that enlisted professionals have the opportunity to attend during their Air Force careers.
Just last week my own local paper, The Sentinel-News, had a cautionary article about deer and their movements this time of the year. It's a dance that can cause injury to car, body, or store front in some cases. It seems there is a story at least once where a deer walks into a local business or busts into someone's living room. I am here however to remind you that your young trees are vulnerable too, love and hormones can make for some crazy behavior and the deer rut has begun!
Bob Gill is the owner of Dairy Queen in Taylorsville and was the first to enforce his business as "Non Smoking". He is truly an advocate for children. He has collaborated with the Spencer County School System in promotions of "Child Abuse Awareness" week and "Red Ribbon" week.
Just a few weeks ago, eight members of Plum Creek Baptist Church took off on an adventure to Thunder Bay in Ontario, Canada. The goal was to help a ministry called Eagles Cove to reach out to the Native American population in the Ontario Province.
Eagles Cove is associated with a Canadian ministry called the Shantyman's Christian Association or SCA. They were founded about 100 years ago to reach the native population and the men working in the rough logging and fishing camps in the Canadian north.
The Spencer County Homemakers hosted their 9th annual Holiday Workshop for the community on Tuesday, November 9th. Workshop participants are shown how to make simple holiday crafts and dishes.
The cost this year was five dollars per person.
Tabitha Prater created this chili mac recipe to give her family some variety in the chili dishes she usually makes. She took this version to a potluck meeting of the Bluegrass Basket Guild in September.
"I make it fairly often," said Prater. "Chili is one thing I can guarantee my son will eat. When it's cold, I fix a lot of chili and chili mac type stuff."
Due to dry conditions, the majority of Kentucky livestock producers are already into their winter feeding programs which some began as early as September. Producers need to inventory their hay supplies now to ensure they have enough to last through the winter.
If they find they're short, buying additional hay now can save them a lot of headaches later, said Tom Keene, hay marketing specialist with the University of Kentucky College of Agriculture.
Spencer County native Carrie Wise was recently awarded one of two $1,000 mini-grants from the Kentucky Reading Association.

Observer perception of artistically manipulated emotional facial expression animations
Item TypeConference Paper
MetadataShow full item record
While we know quite a lot about emotional facial expressions, we know relatively little about the temporal development of dynamic expressions. In order to study expressions, most researchers have made use of acted, posed, or naturalistic expressions of emotion. However, objective manipulation of dynamic expressions for experimental study can prove difficult without disrupting perceptual quality or degrading natural movement. Another way to investigate the temporal configuration of dynamic expressions is to consider the subjective perspective of an animation practitioner. Few studies have considered the artistic representation of facial expressions, and how animators produce what they believe are authentic dynamic expressions. In this paper, the authors discuss a mixed performative-experimental approach to facial animation research, in which facial expression dynamics are manipulated artistically and the resulting animations are tested on observers.

One of the coolest opportunities that I have ever been given is the chance to be a part of the GMC Hidden Treasure Adventure. If you aren't familiar with the event, let me catch you up real quick. Every year, GMC invites a group of bloggers to shop the World's Longest Yard Sale with their amazing vehicles for a Habitat for Humanity family. They give us a small budget and we draw rooms out of the hat. I've been lucky to be involved for several years, and to be honest, I would go every single time if they would allow it {hint, hint}. 🙂
I started the adventure in Atlanta on CBS, and I thought it would be fun to share the clip.
We drove 2015 Yukon Denali's, and ever since I got home, I'm in vehicle depression {it's a thing, I promise}. The trucks were amazing, and now my mini van just isn't cuttin' it. I miss the buzz on my seat telling me that I'm nearing the line on the road, and the sweet red "X" on my mirror telling me that a car is in my blind spot. I'll dream of the day I can own one.
We had a great group of bloggers, and boy did we have fun together.
If you aren't following them all, you should be: Zondra from Six Brown Chicks, MJ from Chicagonista, Rene from Good Enough Mother, Courtney from French Country Cottage, Danielle from Finding Silver Pennies, Taryn from Design, Dining and Diapers, Beth and Nick from Sawdust and Embryos, Amy from The Idea Room, and Allison from Two Thirty Five Designs
We started the adventure at the Atlanta Habitat for Humanity Restore, and we scored some amazing finds right off the bat!
Rene and I found this BRAND NEW RUG for our little boy's room, and if you live in the area, they had an entire corner of brand new rugs still in the plastic!!
I drew the Master Bedroom and Bath, so I got busy shopping along the way to find furnishings for their room!
Zondra and I were paired together, and we had a blast road-tripping together!
The people on the sale are always so stinkin' nice, and the husband and wife that sold me this cool piece were some of my favorites! They came down on the price, and then once she found out what I was doing with it, she decided to keep the other one for herself. Her husband was THRILLED with that decision let me tell ya! {sense the sarcasm}.
These brass beauties were only $1 each, and every room needs a little brass deer, right?
Vivian Pickard, the President of the GM foundation who was also decorating a room, found this amazing doctor's bag for only $30 on the yard sale, and guess what!?!? It's worth $2500!!
We didn't do too shabby ourselves, and soon our Yukon XL Denali was filled to the brim.
This little desk was only $25 and included the chair!
And these two windows were just perfect with their chippy paint and all!
The room was a blank slate…
Stay tuned for the reveal!
Thank you for following along on the adventure! To see all of the pictures from everyone, check out the hashtag #gmchta.

Multiple issues confront Pennsylvania's Republican-controlled General Assembly
HARRISBURG — Priorities for the Republican-controlled General Assembly this year include patching a $1 billion-plus budget gap, expanding private liquor sales and curbing state pension benefits, at least for new employees.
After Gov. Tom Corbett, a Shaler Republican, presents his budget on Feb. 4, the "overarching issue" for the first half of 2014 will be passing a balanced budget, said Erik Arneson, communications and policy director for Senate Majority Leader Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware County.
"Chief among the governor's priorities is an on-time balanced budget," said Corbett's spokesman Jay Pagni. The state budget faces a "significant impact" if soaring pension costs are not addressed, he said.
Privatizing the state liquor system was an issue Corbett pushed throughout 2013. House and Senate leaders and the governor's office are trying to negotiate a legislative solution, said House Republican spokesman Stephen Miskin.
Because it's an election year for Corbett, all House members and half of the Senate, closing a deficit of up to $1.4 billion will require a budget without any tax increase or major program cuts, said Jack Treadway, a former political science professor at Kutztown University and author of a book on state elections.
"They don't want any sound bite for any campaign that's run against them," he said. That's especially true given passage of a $2.4 billion transportation revenue bill in October causing price increases at the pumps, Treadway added.
Legalization of the electronic game keno is being considered as a new source of revenue that may in part pay for freezing senior citizens' property taxes, Arneson said.
"To me, if anything is done with taxes, it would have to be something like that," said Treadway, noting it would be politically popular.
The Legislature on Tuesday returns to session for the first day of the new year. No votes are scheduled in the House. The Senate is likely to re-elect Senate President Pro Tempore Joe Scarnati to the chamber's highest office.
On the education front, the GOP Senate wants to strengthen accountability for charter schools and ensure they are covered by the open meetings, open records and ethics act, Arneson said. Annual independent audits would be required. Senators are awaiting a final report by a commission on special education funding to establish a formula for use in the state budget.
Meanwhile, the debt for Pennsylvania's two pension systems, for state employees and for school employees, has spiraled to $47 billion. Within five years, it is expected to hit $65 billion, Corbett's budget office says. Each Pennsylvania household would need to contribute $13,000 to address that liability. Longer-range potential consequences include spending cuts, tax increases and teacher layoffs, reform proponents say.
Corbett pushed for pension reform throughout 2013, but action stalled as attention turned to transportation in the fall session. Moving new employees to a 401(k)-type plan "will establish the boundaries of the long-term liability and allow the General Assembly and governor to address the short-term issue of skyrocketing contribution costs," Arneson said.
Such action would be a "first step" toward "a reasonable plan for paying (debt) off," said Nathan Benefield, a researcher at the Commonwealth Foundation in Harrisburg.
More controversial was Corbett's plan to reduce the so-called "multiplier" formula used to determine pension benefits for employees.
Some legislative leaders remain wary of that concept.
"The governor will work with the Legislature to develop a plan to ensure the long-term stability of the pension system," Pagni said.
Making the change for new employees at least "stops the bleeding," Pagni said.
Liquor and pension reform are among the top priorities of GOP House members, along with continued efforts to improve the state's business climate, Miskin said. Ending state control of liquor and wine sales could emerge in various shapes — from selling the state stores to gradually phasing them out.
Senate Democrats maintain "modernization" of the liquor system, such as expanding Sunday sales, would boost revenue for the state.
Other priorities of House and Senate Democrats include full expansion of Medicaid under Obamacare that would bring the state billions from the federal government, they say.

Need more advice? Ask the community a question.
Hi folks, we're using Scandisk 4.0gb SD cards. It appears there are alot of repeats of the same pictures and few if any new pictures are displayed. There are 1300+ pictures on each card but only a few hundred are routinely displayed. Any one with the same "hitch"?
When I connect to my computer with the USB, my computer sees something is connected, but doesn't have anything in the removable drive file. Do I need to do something else?
How can I get the circular clock to stay stationary on the side with the current time as the pics fade in and out......right now it goes in and off with the pic and only shows the time that the pic was taken...
Does this do videos?

Winston Churchill Memorial Trust seeks Fellows
Winston Churchill Memorial Trust seeks Fellows
Community and Voluntary Sector Minister Jo Goodhew is calling for applications for the 2015 Winston Churchill Memorial Trust Fellowships.
"This is the 50th anniversary of the fellowship scheme established to honour Sir Winston Churchill who believed world peace and greater international understanding could be promoted through ordinary people travelling to other countries and experiencing other cultures," says Mrs Goodhew.
"These Fellowships provide New Zealanders with the opportunity to travel overseas to learn and share ideas that will benefit themselves, and the wider community."
Since 1965 over 800 New Zealanders have taken up this unique opportunity, this year, up to fifteen fellowships will be awarded.
This year's fellows are researching a wide variety of topics from education and social welfare, to health, agriculture, conservation and technology.
For example, Juliet Arnott from Christchurch is investigating wood waste in England, Italy and the Netherlands. Aucklander Haley Hooper, is looking at youth facilities and how the architecture has developed and evolved in China, Denmark, France, Spain and Thailand. While Elizabeth Soal from Oamaru, is investigating Canadian approaches to sustainable water management.
"Applications for fellowships are encouraged from across the breadth of New Zealand locations, cultures and fields of work," says Mrs Goodhew.
Applications close 31 July 2014, with the successful applicants to be announced in late October 2014. For an application form or for further information about the Trust visit www.communitymatters.govt.nz or call 0800 824 824.
