In Ages Past
A Jesuit in Little Italy: Father Nicholas Russo, S.J.
At the start of the 20th century, Italian immigrants were arriving at Ellis Island at the rate of 100,000 a year. Many stayed in New York City, settling in an area that came to be known as "Little Italy." Life was rough: large families were crowded into tenement apartments, men eked out a living on subsistence wages, and they faced prejudice from their neighbors. There were few places they could look for help.
One of them was the Catholic Church. Michael A. Corrigan, the Archbishop of New York, made outreach a priority of his administration, founding Italian parishes throughout the metropolitan area for their benefit. He also assigned some of the best priests in the archdiocese to this work. After asking the New York Jesuits to start a new parish on the Lower East Side, Father Nicholas Russo (1845-1902) was picked to head it.
Born in Italy, Russo joined the Jesuits at 17 and studied in France and the United States. After his ordination, he was sent to Boston College as a philosophy professor. Over the next eleven years, he wrote two textbooks and served as acting president of the college. Between 1888 and 1890, he taught in New York and Washington before returning to a Manhattan parish, where he doubled as a speechwriter for Archbishop Corrigan.
Flexibility is a cornerstone of Jesuit life, the readiness to go anywhere and assume any task for what founder St. Ignatius Loyola called "God's greater glory." A respected professor and college president, Russo gave up a successful academic career to serve in the tenements. A biographer writes, "It must have been, humanly speaking, no small sacrifice . . . for he had held high positions in Boston and New York and his work had lain almost entirely among the better instructed and wealthy."
But Russo said he would gladly spend his life among his "poor Italians." He and his fellow Jesuit Aloysius Romano went right to work:
We rented an old bar-room, turned ourselves into carpenters, cleaners, and decorators, made an altar and two confessionals, cleaned the walls, painted the inside doors, etc. -- in a word gave the appearance of a chapel and put up a big sign on the outside, "Missione Italiana della Madonna di Loreto."
The chapel intentionally opened on August 16, 1891, the Feast of San Rocco. Getting the men to come to church was a challenge. The San Rocco Society participated, but, Russo commented, "I could not help looking with dread to the following Sunday."
Historian Mary Elizabeth Brown notes that Neapolitans, Sicilians, and Calabrians were living in what had once been an Irish neighborhood. They were mainly Catholic, but their fellow Catholics didn't always welcome them. The local pastor offered them the church basement for worship, but later reneged. One old-timer, Bernard Lynch, wrote an article for a Catholic journal about what he considered the "Italian problem."
In an 1896 article for The Woodstock Letters, an in-house Jesuit magazine, Russo called Manhattan as a "favorite place" for Italian immigrants. Their hope was to "find work here more easily, and thus better their condition." He estimated their local numbers at fifteen thousand. "Nearly all the southern provinces of Italy," he added, "are represented with their different dialects, customs, and manners." Most only understood their own dialect: "They understand good Italian fairly but cannot speak it."

Paris Hilton and Brandon Davis live together
Brandon Davis has reportedly been living in Paris Hilton's Hollywood Hills home since getting out of rehab in July, which he checked into after the "fire crotch" video went public.
"His family is selling their home, so Brandon's been shacking up with Paris at her place off the Sunset Strip," an "insider" tells L&S. "All his clothes, his toiletries and even some of the artwork he owns." But the arrangement is reportedly more than temporary. Says the source: "They're hooking up, but she doesn't want anyone to know about it. It's being kept very hush-hush."
So the supposed gazillionaire can't even afford a hotel and has resorted to handing out sexual favors for a place to stay. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Although the real reason I posted this story was so I could share that above shot of Paris Hilton debuting her album in a Tokyo store. It's a scientific fact that when you pretend to stop having sex your face puffs up and your cheeks start to melt. And your skin turns to wax.

04.08.2012. Together with Per Anders, Torill and John!! Cool plase with an authentic beer maker smell of wort, pizza and chloride or something. Very nice beers as well!!!
Caytinator (113) Waco, Texas | September 22, 2012
Went here on a Friday evening just as it was starting to get busy. Nice atmosphere, the other raters give an apt description of the diversity of their clients. The service was efficient, the pizza was definitely "new york" style and I thought it tasted good and was a great deal at $3.50 a slice. The beer (I only had one) was pretty good, I'd like to go back and try more of them, also a good deal at $3.75/pint. Good New Belgium selection.
Bif (121) St. Charles, Missouri | May 8, 2012
Stopped in, while in Little Rock on business. It's a quaint building in town which tends to give it some character. First impression was a pizza joint that happens to serve decent beers. There are other choices of pub grub besides the pizza.Service was friendly and they seemed to know a bit about what they had on tap. They have about 5 taps for their own beer and a number of taps for "guest brews". I stuck with the local offerings and was pleasantly surprised. My favorite of the beers I tried was the Firehouse Pale Ale. If you are ever in town and have some time check it out.
decaturstevo (199) decatur, Tennessee | February 22, 2012
Don't go here expecting the chain brewpub. This place is in a refurbished building. Outside it doesn't look like much and inside about the same. Where the rubber meets the road the service was good, the beer was good, the selection was good, the food was good. Nice music just a cozy kinda place for me. What more do you need?
PapaMick (7) Jacksonville , Arkansas | January 13, 2012
The oddest blend of personalities, ages, and music in Little Rock. Bankers to bikers, 60ish to check that kids ID. Many crafted beers and availability of commercial beers as well. Not pretty. Often loud. Fun drips in this place!
csaso (171) Missouri | August 23, 2011
First time in LR, and found this place online. Wasn't expecitng much, but defintiely pleasantly surprised. Good beer - about 6 or so of their own, plus a handful of other micros. Pizza looked good - I had a calzone that was way better than I expected - and that is coming from a Jersey Boy who is VERY picky about that kind of food!
Kelpie (1) Maumelle, Arkansas | August 2, 2011
Vino's is THE spot for pizza and a cold one. They brew several of there own outstanding beers, of which I love their Lazy Boy Stout and their Rainbow Wheat. They also have several other taps that offer the likes of Guinness, Boddington's and selections from goose Island and New Belgium. The building looks a bit run down but for me that's what give the place it's character I love Vino's.
ben4321 (482) Hoboken, New Jersey | June 22, 2011| Updated June 19, 2012
Updated 6/19/12: After visiting Vinos a couple handfuls of times over the last year since my original rating I feel like I have a different perspective on Vinos. They usually have somewhere between 3-6 of their own beers, and it always seems to vary without any predictability. They also get some interesting guest taps (generally the latest Lips of Faith to hit Arkansas or a Boulevard special/seasonal). The food is quite good, especially for Little Rock. The beers, while not generally outstanding, tend to be interesting, and certainly drinkable. The service is good, the people are nice, the place is quite chill, and the prices are great. I'd say to go here first if you are in Little Rock and only have time to visit one beer related locale. It is much more unique then Boscos or Saucer, which you can also find other places. Anyway, I was way low originally. This place gets a well deserved a re-rate.
6/22/11: I visited this place earlier this week. It was a bit of a strange place in that, it is basically just a run of the mill pizza place that happens to brew beer. I was thinking I'd go in and sit down at the bat and enjoy a beer, well no dice, all I could do was order food and pay for it up-front, then grab a seat where my food would be delivered. This makes sense for a pizza place, but it was kind of odd for a place where you are drinking a beer (or several). Also, they only had 3 of their own beers on tap (I don't know if that is normal), but it was a pretty weak selection. The food was good for Little Rock, but it's still a pizza place in Arkansas (if you know what I mean). Prices were pretty good, I had 2 beers and dinner for like $15. You can't even pray to do that in NY... My score would have been higher if they had more then 3 of their own beers on tap, that was just weak! (Old score: 3/7/5/6/9/13: 56)
fata2683 (131) Tucson, Arizona | June 18, 2011
stopped here on my stay in LR. Small place within walking distance from Diamond Bear, very good pizza, salads ect. Ordered the sampler on one visit and had a couple of guest beers on another visit. Live music on certain nights. Beers were pretty good as was the service. Prices are good too.
Braudog (887) Yorktown, Virginia | December 19, 2010
December 2010. Can't decide if the vibe here should be described as 'groovy' or 'dingy'. Not exactly an upscale joint in any case, Vino's still delivered a very good pizza pie and a handful of sturdy and yummy, if technically imperfect beers. I couldn't decide, either, if the staff was cool or just "too cool for school." Nonetheless, I enjoyed my visit and would return. (Brewery #525).
badlizard (141) Berkeley , California | July 5, 2010
Despite the rating of only 74, the pizza is outstanding! I would have to rate it as one of the top 3 pies I've ever had, and I take pizza as seriously as beer. The beer is decent and some of the waitresses (especially the cute redhead with tight shorts - you know who you are - marry me!) are hot. The ones who aren't, have a great personality. It's a fun place and definitely worth the visit! Don't wait, just go!

Best Of :: Bars & Clubs
It's been just shy of two years since this cool downtown Phoenix lounge opened, yet we can't remember what our lives were like before we had such a comfy, warmhearted spot to stop for a drink. SideBar owner Josh Parry wanted to create a landmark cocktail lounge that's both a hot neighborhood gathering place and a cozy everyone-knows-your-name throwback to clubs of yesteryear. He's done it!Did we mention the cocktail menu? Smashing. We love the White Rabbit, an update on the Horchata martini that's at the top of our list of faves. SideBar's muddled drinks are made with fresh, homegrown ingredients, so we make sure to get there early to order one (or three!), because once the fresh stuff's gone, it's gone.
So you've had a couple of drinks and someone hands you a microphone while a canned instrumental track of your favorite '80s song starts to play. You're ready to tear it up, but it's hard to feel like a rock star when you're following a bouncing dot across a TV screen. If you really want to feel like a superstar (or just a glorified drunk), get onstage at Blue Martini Lounge on a Monday night, when local cover band The Instant Classics will back you up. This solid, seven-piece band has an extensive repertoire of songs, from Lady Ga Ga and Pat Benatar to Bob Seger and Snoop Dogg. They even have a keytar player with a mohawk, so you can rock that Flock of Seagulls song. The audience at Blue Martini is generally very enthusiastic and supportive, and they'll cheer for you whether you burp into the microphone or not. And if you get up there to croon Sinatra's "My Way" and find yourself frozen with stage fright, never fear — there are three singers in The Instant Classics who'll be happy to make it sound like you're just, uh, harmonizing.
Before its unveiling in January, Revolver Lounge was hyped as one of the hottest new clubs to hit Old Town. Thanks to an air-conditioning eff-up on opening night, that literally was the case. The sheer number of tanned and toned bodies crammed inside the Western-themed Stetson Drive swanketeria caused things to get steamy. (Guess everyone had to cowboy up.) While the snafu was fixed double-quick, the place hasn't cooled off since. Formerly home to the similarly stylish SIX, it's just as in vogue as its predecessor. Conceived by owner Steve McDonald as an upscale dancehall with a Scottsdale twist (hence, antique chandeliers sharing space with posh couches), it's had packed weekends all year, hosted a SMoCA shindig in the spring, and welcomed pop star Rhianna on her 22nd birthday. Revolver's proved so popular, in fact, that Southern-style Shotgun Betty's opened up down the block mere months later. Those copycat cowboys!
There are plenty of delish cocktails we could recommend at Sens, Johnny Chu's always-fabulous Asian tapas hot spot, and we're delighted that they've finally built a bigger bar to accommodate our cravings. But if you're looking for a new twist on an old favorite, we humbly suggest the Hot and Dirty. It's got all the dirty martini basics — olive juice, vodka, ice, and a big, fat olive — but it's also got a nifty lil' addition that will blow your mind. Namely, shochu, which is ostensibly the Japanese version of vodka. At Sens, they infuse this liquor with the hottest of Thai chilis, so you get both hot and cold in every sip. If you're not a fan of hot and spicy, don't order this drink. But if you're willing to give the heat a try, just ask the bartender: He or she'll be happy to work with you by adding more vodka and less shochu. They may push the envelope at Sens, but they're not sadists.
These days, everybody wants to prettify the martini with rose petals or gold flecks or God knows what else. But what the hell is a martini except a way to convey the maximum amount of gin? And that's why we've been increasingly enjoying martinis at bars that would never dream of listing a martini as a house specialty. At an old-school watering hole like downtown's Seamus McCaffrey's, the focus may be on the Scotch, but we guarantee they'll pour you a perfect martini should you order one: icy cold, slightly dirty, and with at least three shots of gin. God bless Seamus McCaffrey.
During our probably-too-long drinking career, the bloody Mary had ranked near the bottom of our desired beverage list, hovering somewhere around a Smoker's Phlegm (Jägermeister and mayonnaise) in the gross department. That's until we hit up Carly's Bistro during its weekend brunch and ordered the eatery's version of the drink, which includes V8, vodka, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, pickle and olive juices, various spices, horseradish, and hot sauce. And, wow, Carly's version of this hair-of-the-dog remedy actually rocks, especially when a lovely bartender by the name of Ann makes the beverage.

This is my favorite brand and style of flip-flop, but this year's crop (at least in white) has been smaller than years past. Sadly for me, my original white pair broke while I was on my honeymoon last summer. My pink pair followed five months later. I am headed on a cruise and intend to wear my slims most of the time. I normally wear a 37/38 in these shoes, which being that I am between 7½ and 8, worked well. Originally, I had gone down to a store that had them (wrong color) and tried on the 37/38 because I heard they re-did their sizing since I had bought my last pair. Boy did they. The 37/38 that I ordered elsewhere were too short. Just a smidge, but it bothered me. It does not look good when your sandals are too short, even when it is by a few centimeters. So this time around, I had to order a 39/40. As expected, they are a bit big, but not like the ones from last year. The resizing is ridiculous.

These are super comfortable. I want to buy them in every color. They are not clunky looking like the regular Havaianas. The Slims are the way to go! I think they run big, though. I usually wear size 6.5/7 and I ordered a size 35/36 (US Woman's 5/6) and it fit perfectly.

I live in Havaianas in the spring through summer...they're the only flips I can wear and not walk out of. The "TOP" style is certainly more comfortable, but "SLIM" offers a more feminine look. I can usually get away with a pair for about 2 years...the sole doesn't really "wear out". Havaianas are made of a RUBBER instead of FOAM, so they feel better on your foot, last much longer, and are easier to walk in than say those cheap foam ones from other retailers. I wear a fairly consistent women's 8.5 and my 5 pairs of Havaianas are all 39-40 (US 7-8, EUR 41.5)-as written on the Havaianas sole. The SLIM style does feel like it runs smaller than the standard TOP style. If you live in flips, these are well worth the price.

Havaianas brand flip-flops are the best brand I have ever worn. They are totally comfortable and I wear them constantly! I purchased several pairs at the same time. I wear a size 7 shoe & the size 35/36 fits perfectly.

Two days ago, my first and only pair of these shoes broke after over five years of nearly every day wear - and my heart broke along with them. Not literally, though, because that would be ridiculous. I have been trying to broaden my flip-flip horizons and have picked up some Old Navy flip-flops (they are too clunky and the rubber on the top is annoyingly rough, plus they look as cheap as they are), Reefs (love them, but not the same) and here I am, buying a few more pairs. Good job, Havaianas.

Jump off San Mateo Bridge kills Oakland man, 51
Published 4:00 am, Friday, August 30, 2002
A man fell to his death from the San Mateo Bridge after first standing on the edge of the Bay Bridge, then leading police on a chase down the Peninsula, authorities said today.
Daniel Earl Jackson, 51, of Oakland, was pronounced dead shortly before 6 p. m. Thursday at Stanford Medical Center, where he was taken by a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter that had plucked him from the water after his 300-foot plunge.
The series of events began about 3:30 p.m. when off-duty Oakland police canine Officer Randy Bandino spotted a blue 2001 Dodge Intrepid stopped in the slow lane on the upper deck of the Bay Bridge near Oakland.
Latest news videos
Bandino saw Jackson on the guardrail. When Jackson spotted the officer, he climbed back over the railing and drove off, said Officer Christian Oliver of the California Highway Patrol.
Bandino followed Jackson's car west toward San Francisco and called for CHP backup. Jackson began driving erratically, authorities said.
At 4:20 p.m., CHP Officer Mark Andreozzi joined Bandino on southbound Highway 101 at Third Avenue in San Mateo.
Jackson headed east on the San Mateo Bridge, at which point a CHP officer turned on his patrol car's emergency red light. Jackson didn't stop.
As he approached the crest of the high rise of the bridge, Jackson pulled over, got out of his car and ran to the side of the span, the CHP said.
Andreozzi grabbed Jackson's jacket to try to keep him from reaching the rail, Oliver said. But Jackson slipped out of his jacket, vaulted the rail and jumped.
The crew of a television news helicopter saw Jackson trying to keep afloat and kept watch on him until a Coast Guard helicopter hoisted him out of the water.
He was airlifted to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:42 p.m.
Jackson's mother told police her son had been acting strangely lately, authorities said. She said she had not seen him for five days.

It's been about two months since the 2012 NFL Draft and while it's far too early to give a final take on the players the New York Jets selected, we have been able to start getting a feel for how they will fit in with the team. Is it too soon to be "reviewing" the Jets 2012 NFL Draft picks? Probably, but the 2012 NBA Draft last night got us in the mood to talk about the 2012 NFL Draft, especially Quinton Coples, Stephen Hill and Demario Davis.
Right now, just about every NFL team feels good about their 2012 NFL Draft picks – they haven't had a chance to be exposed yet in an NFL game. We can't put a ton of stock into practice field performance, but projecting how some of the New York Jets 2012 NFL Draft picks will fit in on offense and defense brings about some promising revelations.
Quinton Coples will ultimately be the pick that everyone judges the Jets on. He was selected No. 16 overall and there were questions swirling about his work ethic. Coples has gone a long way towards answering those questions with big performances in OTA's and minicamp. If Quinton Coples gives all-out effort, his natural ability leaves nothing to be desired. He will be a starter on the defensive line from day one and should improve the Jets' pass-rushing efforts.
Stephen Hill, um let's see… Stephen Hill brings size, speed, tenacious blocking and tremendous athletic ability as the Jets' No. 2 wide receiver, and was only a second round pick. He has already made a big impression on those that have attended offseason activities with some long touchdown catches in practice against the first team defense. He will stretch the field and is a more than willing blocker – exactly what the Jets needed. Did we mention he was second round pick?
Demario Davis was an intriguing third round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft because of his speed as an inside linebacker. Demario Davis should contribute right away in different defensive packages, eventually replacing Bart Scott. It's not a stretch to say that he should be starting next to David Harris by next season. He has made the biggest waves with his leadership ability.
Josh Bush looks like he will be logging more minutes than most expected. The Jets have already started mixing him into different defensive packages and that's exactly where his value comes into play. Josh Bush played both safety and cornerback at Wake Forest, and he showed great ability to cover in the slot.
Antonio Allen is another safety who should see playing time in different packages and on special teams. Essentially a hybrid safety/linebacker, Antonio Allen will allow Rex Ryan to get more speed on the field without completely crippling his defense in terms of stopping the run. That's big against teams like the New England Patriots.
Terrance Ganaway, Robert T. Griffin and Jordan White are all depth guys at this point. Robert T. Griffin is really a long-term project, while Terrance Ganaway and Jordan White shouldn't see the field much unless injuries force them into the lineup. Still, five potential rookie contributors in one draft is a nice haul for the New York Jets.

Superbly stylish yet highly capably, there's an awful lot to like about the Samsung BDD6500.
The Samsung BD-D6500 has to be one of the most stylish Blu-ray players on the market right now. Yet put this to one side and you'll also find it to be one of the very best equipped in its class.
Key to the Samsung's appeal is the built-in Smart Hub. This combines a host of features and has already proved enormously successful in Samsung's TVs. Standard on this version of the Smart Hub are Samsung Apps which gives you access to popular sites such as YouTube and the BBC iPlayer. Allshare, powered by DLNA, lets you connect the Blu-ray up to your home network via Ethernet or built-in wi-fi. From here you can stream content from your PC, laptop or other storage device and then on to your TV. Search All function allows you to find information or content via the hub. With just a couple of clicks you can find content relating to the program you're watching or access other features such as Video On Demand and apps.
Featuring the latest HDMI interface, the BD-D6500 is fully compatible with 3D Blu-ray discs. Connect up to your 3D TV, don the glasses and you'll have the opportunity to view depth of image that no conventional TV can get close to. What's more, thanks to upscaling, the BDD6500 improves the picture quality of your existing DVDs. Thanks to the Full Screen feature the BDD6500 lets you see the bigger picture. With Full Screen, the Samsung automatically converts the standard 21:9 film format to TV standard, 16:9 widescreen - doing away with those annoying black bars. When it comes to playback compatibility, the BDD6500 is also amongst the very best. DivX HD, MP4, HD JPEG and MKV encoded discs can all be handled with ease.
Once you've taken in the comprehensive spec, then there's the styling to consider. With its super slim profile and unique two-two finish, the BDD6500 is one Blu-ray player that you'll be proud to have on display. At just 33mm in height, the BDD6500 is one of the slimmest players on the market. Helping to achieve the look of it being even thinner, the two-tone finish pairs gloss black with silver metallic for a stand-out design. Finally, the rounded front panel and slot-in loading mechanism give a clean yet sculptural style that's a world away from the usual 'black box' design.
With the Samsung BD-D6500, Blu-ray has never looked so good.

The St Leger is worth nearly £300,000 to the winner and carries Classic status but it is still "more unlikely than likely" that Nathaniel will run at Town Moor in September, James Wigan, the racing manager to the colt's owner Lady Rothschild, said on Tuesday.
Nathaniel was promoted to the head of the Leger market last week after an impressive defeat of Fiorente in the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot, and had been as short as 9-4 to give John Gosden his second successive win in the Doncaster Classic. However, Fiorente was immediately declared an unlikely runner in the Leger, and now Nathaniel has joined him on the list of doubtful starters.
"We were very happy with him at Royal Ascot," Wigan said. "He did it very well and has come out of the race well. The St Leger is an option, but I would say it is more unlikely than likely at this stage.
"I think we'll look at some of the very good mile-and-a-half races and the St Leger wouldn't be my favourite destination for him at the moment, but we'll see. I don't want to pinpoint any races for him. There are all sorts of possibilities."
Nathaniel drifted to a top price of 7-2 for the Leger on Tuesday evening.

Real Name: Wendy Lorraine Camp, Cynthia M. Britto, Lisa Renee Kregear
Nicknames: Bunny (Cynthia)
Location: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Date: May 29, 1992
Occupation: Housewife (Wendy)
Date of Birth: (Camp) March 1, 1969, (Britto) January 17, 1986, (Kregear) October 18, 1968
Height: (Camp) 5'6", (Britto) 3'0", (Kregear) 5'4"
Weight: (Camp) 180 lbs., (Britto) 60 lbs., (Kregear) 130 lbs.
Marital Status: (Camp) Married, (Britto) Single, (Kregear) Single
Characteristics: (Britto) Brown eyes and hair, (Kregear) Blue eyes and blonde hair, (Camp) Brown eyes and brown hair
Details: Wendy Britto-Noe-Camp was a divorced mother with a young daughter, Cynthia, from a marriage to her first husband, Christopher Britto of Sri Lanka or Kuwait, when she married Chad Noe. They had a son named Jonathan. Shortly thereafter, Wendy went into a coma and remained undiagnosed for weeks; it was later determined to be multiple sclerosis. One week after Wendy went into a coma, Chad, unable or unwilling to deal with her physical difficulties, chanced to meet Wendy's mother in the hospital hallway and informed her that he had divorced Wendy and was seeking full custody of Jonathan. During this time, Wendy's sister, Kimberly Aisha Hshmi, was caring for Cynthia. However, she was unable to care for Jonathan, as she was a newlywed, pregnant, and was moving to New York for her husband's work. Wendy's parents approached Beverly Noe, Chad's mother, and asked her to temporarily provide care for Jonathan, which she had agreed to do, months before finding out Chad had divorced Wendy. She then secretly sought and won full custody of Jonathan due to Chad having had multiple children out of wedlock, many with underaged girls. He was heavily into drugs, and Wendy's family felt he had given drugs to Wendy while she was pregnant, which had then brought on the coma.
At the time, Wendy as well as her entire family, were unaware of what had taken place. She remained in a coma a little over 16 months. She slowly improved and met Leon Camp, whom she married. During this time, she requested and received weekend visitation with Jonathan and for a month things went smoothly. Soon, though, Beverly began refusing to let her see him, claiming Leon was molesting him during the visits. Wendy would go to see Jonathan. Upon arrival to see him one visit she was shocked to see the house was vacant, yet no new address had ever been given to the court, nor had she been told Beverly had moved. Another visit was to take place the next week by court order and when she arrived, she was told that Beverly must have forgotten it was her weekend since she had taken Jonathan out of state to Six Flags Over Texas. This behavior soon escalated to claims that he was being abused or molested even though Beverly herself was present for each and every visit. Wendy was beyond frustrated and pointed out numerous times that no one, neither her or any family member, had ever signed over parental rights to Beverly or Chad, yet the court seemed to turn a blind eye to this fact. These molestation claims had no foundation, and Wendy, Cynthia, and Leon were exonerated by Ginger Leto, the therapist the court had appointed to make a determination regarding these claims. All medical tests proved claims against anyone sexually abusing Jonathan to be false.
Visitation was allowed to continue while Chad and Beverly were cited for contempt. They continued to refuse to comply with the visitation order, and Beverly took Jonathan and went into hiding, prompting Wendy's Father, Edwin Knox Taylor, to become a gun-licensed private detective. The family had hired a private detective but soon money ran out, and to this day the family still owes money to the detective, as well as to the lawyer who was fighting Wendy's court case, a total around $10,000. It is not clear if Beverly was found or turned herself in, yet she did surface, and the court ordered her to let Wendy see the child and did not demand her to return the child to Wendy, a fact that to this day mystifies her entire family.
On May 29, 1992, Beverly asked Chad to call Wendy and invite them to come for a visit. Chad called and spoke to her, but due to her medical condition, she was unable to drive, to which Chad replied that Beverly would pick her up and take her home. The next day, she and Leon were ready to go, yet Beverly refused to let Leon come along, saying he would fight with Chad. He felt this was strange but agreed Wendy could go provided his sister, Lisa, went with her. Cynthia wanted to go as well to see her baby brother. Beverly seemed extremely agitated and reluctantly had allowed Lisa and Cynthia to go, and now Wendy and Lisa's family wishes that the trip had never happened. No one had suspected that harm would come to them, but it turned out to be a visit from which none would return.
Suspects: Chad Noe remains a person of interest. Two locals reported that he boasted of his responsibility for the deaths of both women and Jonathan, after which he disposed of them in a way in which they would never be found. However, without additional and more concrete evidence, the police are unable to proceed with a case against him. Ida Prewitt and Beverly Noe were once booked for arson to collect insurance money.
Extra Notes: This case first aired on October 20, 1993.
Results: Unresolved. Ida Prewitt died in September 2011 at 82 from cancer.
On April 16, 2013, the remains of Wendy, Cynthia, and Lisa were found buried eight feet deep in an unmarked grave in Pawnee County, Oklahoma. A Ruger revolver (which appeared to be a .357) and a knife were also located amid the remains. DNA collected from Wendy's sister, Kimberly Aisha Hashmi, confirmed the identities of Wendy and Cynthia. A coroner declared they were victims of homicide. Camp died from gunshot and sharp force injuries, Kregear died from gunshot wounds to the torso, while Britto died from "homicidal violence of unspecified means."
Grover Prewitt, Ida's son and Beverly's brother, was arrested on half a million dollar bail that was reduced to $50,000. Investigators believe more arrests are expected in this case. Grover pleaded not guilty and his lawyer believes he is innocent. He is awaiting trial.
Beverly was arrested on March 28, 2014 and was charged with three counts of first degree murder in association with this case. On January 20, 2015, she pleaded no contest to helping in carrying out the murders; she was sentenced to 15 years in prison and 15 years probation. Grover made statements that his mother (Ida Prewitt) and sister (Beverly Noe) had murdered Wendy, Lisa and Cynthia. Grover Prewitt died on January 25, 2017.

SYDNEY – Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd refused to concede defeat Friday despite a new poll showing he is heading for an election wipe-out as the media swung behind rival Tony Abbott.
The Galaxy survey in the Sydney Daily Telegraph, a day before voters cast their ballots, found Rudd has failed to make any inroads on the conservative opposition leader.
On a two-party basis, Labor is trailing 47 to 53 percent, with the newspaper saying the coalition could pick up an extra 20 to 25 seats in the lower House of Representatives.
An overwhelming 78 percent of the 1,503 people questioned said Abbott had performed better during the election campaign. Just 8 percent said Rudd, with the rest undecided.
But the prime minister, who has struggled for traction after toppling Julia Gillard, Australia's first female leader, just weeks before calling the election, said he was not ready to give up.
"I've seen those sorts of gaps made up in the past and I think there are so many people undecided out there about what Mr. Abbott's massive cuts mean to them," he said.
"I think as we get closer to the vote tomorrow, people will say 'Will these massive cuts hurt my job, hurt my hospital, will they hurt my school?'. . . . And I think those are the questions that will focus undecided voters as they go to vote."
The economy has been a key election battleground and the opposition on Thursday pledged 40 billion Australian dollars ($36.7 billion) of savings if it wins.
Rudd added: "We continue to fight right through till 6 p.m. tomorrow," referring to when the polls close, and seized on the coalition announcing, then retracting on Thursday evening, plans for a mandatory Internet porn filter.
He called the policy back flip a "debacle."
"How many other policies do they have in their bottom draw that they don't want to tell Australians about?" he said.
Despite his fighting words, Rudd appears to have an insurmountable task with all the nation's main newspapers, bar The Age in Melbourne, backing Abbott in election eve editorials.
"Australia is crying out for a stable government that can be trusted to deliver what it promises. The Herald believes only the coalition can achieve that," Fairfax Media's Sydney Morning Herald said on its front page.
Rupert Murdoch's Daily Telegraph, which has been running an anti-Rudd campaign since the election was announced, said its stance had been justified.
"Following two terms of Labor chaos, in-fighting, confusion and lack of focus, this election campaign has demonstrated Labor's terminal dysfunction in concentrated form," it said.
"Australia genuinely does need a new way. The men and women who are best able to deliver it come from the coalition."
While the clear frontrunner to become Australia's 29th prime minister, Abbott said it was too early to start celebrating.
"It's like being in a grand final, five minutes to go, only a goal or two in it, anything could happen," he said, but admitted to thinking about the prospect and was somewhat daunted.
"If it happens I will be extraordinarily conscious of the heavy burden of responsibilities, of duties, that will have descended on my shoulders," he said.
"Inevitably, anyone who is suddenly given a big job, even if you have been preparing for it for years and you know you are ready for it, when it happens, if it happens, you are conscious of being on a great threshold."
Asked what he would do on his first day as prime minister, he said he would go for a bike ride "with the guys I've been riding with for years."
"Then into the office to do briefings because you can't muck around with something as important as the future of our country."
Rinehart suggests pay-way-out-of-jail plan
Australia's richest person Gina Rinehart has suggested that non-violent prisoners could pay their way out of jail and become tax-paying workers to boost the economy.
In a column for the Australian Resources and Investment magazine, the mining heiress said the country needed more workers as the population ages, and getting criminals back into the workforce would bolster tax revenues.
"Let them pay to get out of prison or not enter prison (a new source of revenue), and let them be part of the tax-paying workforce," she wrote in the September issue.
Rinehart, who has mining and media interests, said a similar system was used in the U.S. state of Texas and had proved a more humane, cost-effective and successful way of dealing with non-violent prisoners.

It's done.
this is the mod I'm talking about
hence the need of Wol's cape bones
The animations make your bones move so if you give Ultimecia's wings the animations from WoL's cape the cape will float horizontally since the animations are made for a vertical bone.
Oh, okay.
You'll need to add a "cape bone" with an attachement and then give it WoL's cape animations but I don't know how attachements work :/
Huh? Do you want to edit one of Bloody's mod or does she?
(I got lost there xD)
Then you'll need an attachement to get a bone positioned like the cape (I think Ultimecia's Edea has it) and then give it the animations of the cape you want.
Don't know what you thought they were but they're just assigned to WoL's cape xD
To make a custom bone you'll need an attachement and to change the animations you have to do it in the MDS, you have the tutorial here.
(The part you want to do is replace by bone)
You can give any bone you want any animation you want, you could even make custom animations if you knew how they work.
With physics? What do you mean? <.<

Date: Thursday, 17 Jun 2004 19:43:31 +0000
Subject: News from the Screaming Squires
Rosalyn Gregory fulminates against TV adaptations of "classic" texts.
(Isis (Trinity Term) vol.2, 2004.) She refers to novels but much of what
she says applies to plays.
"[...] validity lies in recognising when an explicit description defines
an aspect of character.[...]" The "sturdy" Kate Winsler was hardly (in
Jude the Obscure) too convincing as Sue Bridehead an "emancipated bundle
of nerves". She (Gregory) considers that adaptation is always a remove
from the original but that on occasions of late it has denied that the
reader is capable of any imaginative connection between it and the
original. These changes sometimes are so gross however that they lead to
ignorance in the unwary. She cites the tale of the producer of a Pride
and Prejudice having to explain to an American publicist that Jane
Austen would be unavailable for book signings. (Which reminded me of the
scene in Four Weddings and a Funeral where a British character tells an
American lady that while he doesn't know Oscar Wilde personally he does
have the fax number of his agent. A tedious clich

Please sir, the dog ate my watch
Snips, snails, puppy dog tails, and hopeless timekeepers, that's
what boys are made of.
Photo: Robert Hamer
Girls are much better than boys at timing tasks, reports Margaret Cook.
IT'S an ongoing concern in many countries, including Australia: why do boys lag behind girls academically?
One reason may be that girls do better on timed tests and tasks and this contributes to a classroom culture that favours them, according to new American research. Australian academics say they are not surprised by the findings.
The study, by professors Stephen Camarata and Richard Woodcock from Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, involved more than 8000 people aged from two to 90 across the United States.
They found minor differences in intelligence between males and females in any age group. However, females had "a big advantage" when it came to performing in timed situations, particularly at primary and secondary-school level.
"Consider that many classroom activities, including testing, are directly or indirectly related to processing speed - the ability to effectively, efficiently and accurately complete work that is of moderate difficulty," says Professor Camarata.
"The higher performance in females may contribute to a classroom culture that favours them, not because of teacher bias but because of inherent differences in processing speed."
The researchers also question whether this finding is linked to higher school drop-out rates by boys, also an issue in Australia.
Ian Lillico, a consultant for the Federal Government's $19.4 million Success for Boys initiative, says "a significant number" of boys have difficulty estimating how long it takes to complete tasks, whether it's homework or in class. A related issue is that many boys prefer active, rather than sedentary, learning.
"Often they overestimate the time required for an assignment, and say, 'This will take forever'," says Mr Lillico. "Then they don't attempt it because it looks too daunting, and it become a self-fulfilling prophecy.
"Boys also have difficulty setting time limits in exams - for example, spending too long on a question that is worth only three marks. This problem has got worse as exams have got longer."
However, Mr Lillico, a research assistant with Queensland's Griffith University, says teachers are increasingly aware of these issues and are doing more to correct them. They now encourage girls and boys to work together on shared tasks, he says, because the girls tend to "organise" the boys and say " 'Now we need to do this, and this'."
Mr Lillico advises teachers and parents to set time limits, particularly for 11 to 15-year-olds - for example: "You will spend 10 minutes on this"; "You have three minutes to go."
Parents should not allow boys to "work on something for three hours in their room that the teacher intended them to do in 10 minutes", he says.
The American researchers say it is important to give boys material that is challenging and interesting, but "presented in smaller chunks without strict time limits".
Boys find it difficult to plan ahead, particularly when it comes to school work, says Peter West, head of the University of Western Sydney's research group on men and families.
"They can play football for hours, but when you ask if they've done their geography assignment, which is due at 11am, they may not have started it.
"Girls are also better at getting people to assist them. They don't mind saying, 'I need help with time-management and organising my work', whereas boys feel it's important to be self-sufficient and in control."
At present the curriculum assesses accomplishments that boys are not always good at (sitting down, working quietly, being organised, working to time limits, handing in legible work), rather than what they excel at (taking on challenges, risk-taking, idealism, and imaginative and speculative tasks), says Dr West.
The American research was published by the International Society for Intelligence Research in its May-June journal, Intelligence.
Professors Camarata and Woodcock plan to conduct studies to measure brain activity so they can understand which brain areas play a role in processing speed and how they react differently in males and females.

If you're interested in another approach...in the XMLBeans vote on the proposed resolution and PMC chair, I included an option for the committer to choose to become part of the PMC. This meant that people who didn't vote at all weren't part of the PMC, and that people who didn't want to be part of the PMC could passively decline. I felt it was important for a clearly intentional choice to take on the responsibility of being on the PMC. This method can also serve to naturally filter out committers who have not been very active (unless they make a conscious act to renew their activity). Of course, anyone missed could always be voted into the PMC at a later time, depending on the established charter. Anyway, just thought I'd throw that out there in case you find any merit in that approach.

QUEENSLAND coach Mal Meninga will prepare the State of Origin comeback report card on Dave Shillington for Maroons selectors after this weekend when the giant Canberra prop returns to the NRL.
Shillington, in line to step into retired great Petero Civoniceva's front-row role or come off the bench as Queensland's impact prop, returns from a rib injury against Newcastle at Canberra Stadium on Sunday.
There's speculation Queensland selectors will push Gold Coast hard man Nate Myles into the front-row and play Shillington, who has three rounds to push his case to be Matt Scott's partner in Origin I in Sydney on June 5.
Neither Rod Morris nor co-selectors Gene Miles and Alan Smith were booked to fly to Canberra at the weekend with Meninga likely to be their scout.
"I think Mal is going to the game,'' Morris said.
"We (selectors) will be watching it and we get tapes and all the stats although we do like to go to as many games as we can.''
Without giving anything away, Morris said Shillington "had the runs on the board'' at Origin level although he qualified his remark by adding he hadn't played a lot of football.
"Obviously he is an important member of our group but we do have a fair bit of depth and we are keeping an eye on quite a few players,'' he said.
Morris was mildly amused by the hot topic of picking Greg Inglis at fullback ahead of current No.1 Billy Slater given Inglis's amazing start to the season.
"There's an old saying, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it','' said Morris.
"GI's form has been outstanding but why would we sacrifice one for the other when we can have them both playing for us where they have during this record run?''
Morris said the appointment of former Raiders great Laurie Daley as NSW coach presented a new challenge for Queensland, chasing an eighth successive series win this year under Meninga.
"NSW have a lot of (player) options - they always have,'' he said.
"Laurie only has to make a slight difference or find a little something new.
"Queensland have won a number of series now but I can tell you Mal and the boys won't treat this one light, no matter what.''
Queensland name their 17-man squad on May 27.

US online holiday shopping up 25%
Page Tools
Online holiday shopping in the US rose 25 percent in 2004 to $US23.2 billion, a survey shows.
The eSpending report by Goldman Sachs, Harris Interactive and Nielsen/Netratings found that US shoppers boosted their Internet purchases from $US18.5 billion from November 1 to December 26 last year.
Consumers spent the most on clothing - at $US3.8 billion, with toys and video games coming in second at $US2.5 billion. Electronics took the number three spot with $US2.3 billion in web sales.
The report is based on weekly surveys of more than 1000 respondents.
"Online shopping contributed significantly to overall 2004 holiday sales by attracting consumers through a broad product selection," said Heather Dougherty, analyst at Nielsen/NetRatings.
"Consumers have become accustomed to purchasing online over the years and look to the Internet to find comprehensive product information, competitive prices and easy gift delivery allowing them to have more time to spend on other holiday activities."
Various surveys show different results for online spending. A survey by comScore Networks recently showed a 29 percent gain in online spending to $US14.8 billion for the holiday period.
