Wild Child Dance Studio
It's a mild summer evening. As the reception hall buzzes with the relaxed camaraderie of post-wedding festivities, notes from a familiar song ring out above the crowd. The lights drop, and things get quiet. From a behind the dais, the bride and groom move slowly towards the center of the dance floor. Lit now by a single spotlight, they embrace, moving slowly, gracefully in time to the music that means the most to them. There will be more dances tonight, between fathers and daughters, mothers and sons, old friends and new, but the first dance rules them all. The instructors at Wild Child Dance Studio understand the affection and symbolism behind this memorable moment. That's why they devote much of their professional time preparing couples to skillfully glide through their first dances as man and wife. Before or after the big day, pairs can also hone their ballroom chops during group seminars, which unlock the secrets of timeless dance styles including the waltz, foxtrot, samba, and swing.
In addition to their wedding and ballroom classes, instructors train the next generation of Astaires with lessons for kids and teens. Youths can learn the secrets of beginning jazz moves, hip-hop choreography, and ballet stretches, or engage in old-timey elegance with tap lessons. Instructors also fill the schedule with adult versions of many of these classes, which join other grown-up lessons that cover belly dancing, nightclub essentials, and flirty, ladies-only chair dance routines that bolster confidence with sultry moves.

Your visit
Whether it's your first time picking your own fruit or you come every year, we hope to make your visit to the farm easy and enjoyable.

Getting to the farm
The farm is at 53 Boxted Straight Road, near Colchester, Essex in the UK – postcode CO4 5RB.
From Colchester North Station: Take the A134 to Sudbury. At the traffic lights, the Northern Approach Road turns left (signposted A134 to Sudbury). At the mini roundabout, turn right on to Boxted Straight Road. Continue straight for 2 miles, and the farm is well sign-posted on your left.
From the A12: exit at Junction 28; follow signs to the hospital; take the first exit at the roundabout, signposted to Boxted; when the road ends at a T-junction with Boxted Straight Road, turn right, and the farm is well sign-posted on your left.

Labour to reduce union influence over leadership
Trades unions will no longer control a third of the votes in Labour leadership elections, under proposed changes to be announced by Ed Miliband.
MPs and MEPs will also have some of their influence over leadership contests reduced, in what Mr Miliband wants to be a one-member one-vote procedure.
The party has been reviewing its procedures and union links since allegations of vote-rigging involving the Unite union surfaced in Falkirk last year.

Robert Ringer is a best-selling author of motivational books and an acclaimed public speaker. However, he is probably best known in the libertarian movement for his classic book, Restoring the American Dream.
The book, which reached #3 on the New York Times bestseller list in 1979, is widely hailed as one of the best-ever general introductions to libertarian ideas. Written in friendly, non-academic prose, the book acquainted millions of people with the libertarian principle that each individual has the right to live his life as he chooses — as long as he does not forcibly interfere with the same right of others.
In Restoring the American Dream, Ringer exposed the myriad of problems created by big government (including inflation, high taxes, the energy crisis, and excessive regulation), and prescribed freedom, individualism, and opportunity as the solution. Ringer dedicated the book to "men and women throughout the world who practice individualism and self-responsibility, who do not covet the fruits of the labor of others, [and] who respect every person's right to sovereignty over his own life…"
More than a quarter century later, Restoring the American Dream continues to have a significant impact on the libertarian movement. In 1998, it was ranked #2 as the book that influenced Libertarian Party members "more than any other in their journey to libertarianism" (according to an unscientific poll reported in The Pulse column, LP News, January 1998). It came in second only to Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged.
Restoring the American Dream has been called a "libertarian classic" by the West Coast Libertarian Foundation (British Columbia, Canada) and "a wonderful introduction to the libertarian philosophy" by the Libertarian Party of mid-west Michigan. Colorado State Senator John Andrews (R) described it as a "classic on the timeless relevance of our founders' freedom vision," while radio talk show host David Gold praised it as "a precious treatise on personal freedom."
To this day, Ringer remains an outspoken advocate of liberty. On his Web site, he proclaims that "everyone has an equal and absolute right to sovereignty over his own body, his own property, and his own life, and to pursue his own happiness in any way that he chooses. The only right that an individual does not naturally possess is the right to violate someone else's liberty."
To the world at large, Ringer is most famous as one of the most widely read and influential authors of books that teach people how to be more successful at business and life. Two of his books — Winning Through Intimidation (1975) and Looking Out for Number 1 (1977) — were listed by the New York Times among the 15 best-selling motivational books of all time. Those two books also hit #1 on the New York Times national bestseller list.
In addition, Ringer is the author of Million Dollar Habits (1990), Getting What You Want: The Seven Principles of Rational Living (2000) and Action! Nothing Happens Until Something Moves (2004). In 2004, he also published an updated and rewritten version of Winning Through Intimidation entitled To Be or Not to Be Intimidated?. His books have been reprinted in a half-dozen languages, and have been praised by business leaders, coaches, politicians, and other public figures. Laissez Faire Books said Ringer's books "are always an engaging blend of storytelling and no-nonsense practical and moral insight."
An in-demand public speaker, Ringer lectures around the USA on the principles of success, personal and professional achievement, salesmanship, effective business strategies and motivation. In 2005, he was the keynote speaker at the Advocates for Self-Government's 20th Anniversary Celebration in Atlanta.
"Everyone has an equal and absolute right to sovereignty over his own body, his own property, and his own life, and to pursue his own happiness in any way that he chooses. No one has the authority to grant rights to anyone else, because human beings already possess all natural rights at birth. These rights include both personal and economic freedoms, and the only way they can be lost is if someone takes them away by force. The only right that an individual does not naturally possess is the right to violate someone else's liberty." — Robert Ringer on www.RobertRinger.com

Only a Test, but a very important one!
The purpose of the test is to evaluate our processes and systems so that we are best prepared to respond to a real emergency event.
UAS will conduct a test of our emergency notification system the morning of April 12, 2013. The timing of this exercise will coincide with an emergency preparedness drill in the Auke Bay area.
The purpose of the test is to evaluate our processes and systems so that we are best prepared to respond to a real emergency event. The UA system is in the process of setting up new technologies for alerting students.
It is very important that your information is up-to-date in the UAS Alert Notification System. Please check your information on the UAS IT Helpdesk page.
Current strategies rely heavily on email and text messaging. These technologies work well in many situations, but they are not always ideal for notifying students in classrooms. This summer, UAS will install classroom notification systems.
During the exercise, you should receive one or more messages and a subsequent "all clear" message.
Faculty: Please note if alerts were received by your class. After the exercise, the campus community will be invited to complete a brief survey.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact Health and Safety Manager, Dan Garcia at 796-6077 or email@example.com.
Thank you for your consideration and cooperation in this very important test.

Ratings for Dr. Kirit C. Shah
I am a longtime patient of Dr Shah but now an ex patient. Dr Shah is a nice fellow but my biggest issue is that he would not give re-fills for meds and expected one to come in for an appt in order to get re-fills. When you got there he just looks at his laptop and doesnt even know why you are there. His biggest priority is keeping a flow of appts. I was the one to suggest getting a colonoscopy not him to give you and example.His office would even call me weekly to come in for appts even though I had just been there 3 months before.On another note his office manager can be extremely rude and officious and was the last straw for me. I have now found a new internist that is much more thorough and with a highly staff.
Doctor listen and don't rush. Referral takes forever. If you call to check on it you get an attitude. Staff not friendly at all. Don't expect a call for your lab work results. Whether good or bad. Instead you need to schedule an appointment. It felt more like I'm a $$$ sign. I'd like it more if my doctor's priority would be concerning my health benefits. Unfortunately, staff are also part of a doctor's office and they have a huge impact on the rating. Would not recommend.
Good bedside manner and very good information from the doctor. Friendly staff.Wait time could be less.
Doctor knows nothing. He would always claim that you are dying already. Doesn't spend time with patient. Staff doesn't do anything either. I've been waiting a six month for a referral to a specialist. Unorganized, inexperienced.

A deferred annuity is an old-style product that accepted transfers or rollovers from super funds, says Gemma Dale, head of technical services at MLC. They were popular during the 1980s and allowed super and other termination payments from an employer to remain in the super system with its concessional tax rates when people moved employment. They also allowed you to avoid potentially hefty termination taxes that were introduced in the 1980s to encourage people to stay in super.
While it's true you can't convert the deferred annuity to an income stream, you can roll the money to another super income stream, or perhaps even the one you now use if you are happy with it and the promoter will accept the rollover. It may depend on how old the product is but there are plenty of modern products that will accept super rollovers.
The other option you already know about is making ad hoc withdrawals from the deferred annuity. This is a valid strategy that will allow you to keep the capital guarantee, which you will lose if you move to another product. This guarantee would have been quite valuable in recent years, especially during the global financial crisis, a period when many market investment-related products suffered. One consideration you might bear in mind is that while you can continue with the deferred annuity, if your wife survives you, she will not have the option of continuing it. Instead, the account balance will either be paid to her or your estate as a lump sum. If you roll over to a pension, you can make her a reversionary beneficiary.
To answer your other question, the value of the deferred annuity will be subject to deeming for the income test and will also be added to your other assets for the asset test. While a super pension could give rise to a better income test outcome, it will more likely be the asset test that disqualifies you from any government pension, especially if you have significant other assets.
Yes, it is possible to segregate one investment from a pool and direct that the proceeds from this asset be allocated to one of the pensions, says Craig Fishburn of Superannuation Auditors. To do this you need to identify the balance of the pension you wish to associate the investment with, as well as the market value of the investment.
You would expect the pension balance to be greater than the value of the investment and will need to make a cash adjustment from the fund to bring them in line.
The trust asset and any extra cash can then be segregated and identified in a newly created bank account that will accept the proceeds from these investments.
These proceeds will then be allocated to the chosen pension, with the assumption that they will generate sufficient cash income to pay the required pension.
The remaining fund assets, including any that support other pensions, can stay in the pool, which will have its own bank account.
If the investment turns sour, then any losses will be suffered by the member balance in the chosen pension and not any other accounts in the investment pool.

Minneapolis LASIK Surgeon Directory
LASIK surgery has become extremely popular in Minneapolis and St.Paul, as well as across the country. This procedure uses an excimer laser to change the shape of the cornea and reduce or eliminate a patient's dependence on glasses or contact lenses. A Minneapolis LASIK surgeon performs the procedure in a two-step process. A flap is created in the cornea using either a blade (e.g. microkeratome) or a laser (e.g. Intralase). The flap is folded back and then the excimer laser energy is applied to the corneal tissue. Once the flap is repositioned, the patient normally immediately experiences much better vision than he or she had with glasses. Other types of laser vision correction procedures are available including LASEK, PRK and Epi-LASIK.
The surgeons listed in the Minneapolis surgeon directory typically have many years experience performing LASIK surgery. These surgeons also typically offer other types of procedures, such as anti aging injectables, including Botox and Restylane. LASIK surgeons sometimes work with, and recommend, hair loss specialists who can help to restore a natural head of hair. Patients who are interested in LASIK in Minneapolis or other types of eye care or facial cosmetic procedures should schedule a consultation with an experienced ophthalmologist. These surgeons can answer questions about the procedure, including information about risks, benefits, costs and expected outcome.

Many LASIK Minneapolis patients visit this metropolitan city for their surgical procedure due to the number of highly qualified surgeons and the numerous area attractions. The city is home to what is called the best-designed, best-financed and best-maintained park system in America, the Minneapolis Park System. Here patients can take long relaxing walks, have picnics or take the family to the different parks for a day in order to enjoy and relax under the sun. Minneapolis also offers other recreation, such as golf. This thriving metropolis is home to more golfers than any other major United States city. There are a total of five golf courses within the city including the nationally ranked Hazeltine National Golf Club. Minneapolis is a great location for LASIK patients looking to enjoy their newly enhanced eyesight. The beautiful parks and incredible golf courses Minneapolis offers allow patients to slow down and experience the true beauty of the city.
Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Dentistry Procedures in Minneapolis

Calvin Harris Turned Down Chance to Work With Lady Gaga

Calvin Harris Videos
Singer, songwriter and producer Calvin Harris, who is one of the hottest DJs around and who shot to fame on the back of his singles with Rihanna ("We Found Love") and with Ne-Yo ("Let's Go"), revealed that he turned down the chance to work with Lady Gaga! Whoa! What? She's the biggest star in pop music, so why did he say, "Thanks, but no thanks?"
Well, for one, he was busy. And secondly, he "didn't really like the songs," according to the BBC. He also said that he was offered the chance to work with her before she was huge, and that he wasn't sent the hits to work on. So he turned it down, saying that he was a busy rascal at the time and that he needed to work with people whose songs and voices he likes.
Gaga responded via tweet, posting: "never even emailed you calvinharris I guess it's hard to believe I write + produce my music. cuz I'm a woman I don't know about EDM right." Ouch.
They then both apologized to each other over Twitter. It was a big to-do about nada.
Was this a "missed connection" between Gaga and Calvin Harris? Could they have made beautiful music together?

Little Shell Tribe History
Up until 1879 the Indians who were in Central Montana were more or less nomadic tribes of Sioux, Crows, Chippewas, and the half-breed metis.
As early as 1840, individual members of the metis Indians penetrated the area to help the traders and trappers. These Indians were hired as guides, but they did not remain long in the area. One of the guides was Jacob Berger.
The most hostile and troublesome were the Sioux who were scattered in the area and restless. This was their favorite hunting ground, and they visciously resented the white man. They attacked and stole horses, invaded settlements, were a menace to the freighters on the Carroll Trail, and even approached forts and killed soldiers.
At one time, 1873, a proposal was made to move the Crow Indians from their reservation in the Gallatin Valley to Judith Basin. Although plans were carried out as to the exact location in the area, the removal of the Indians was never accomplished; the Crows were left on their reservation in the Gallatin Valley.
In 1879 came the advent of the Chippewa and French Indians into Central Montana and they made permanent settlements on Spring Creek. They were leb by Pierre Berger, a Frenchman(Webmaster note: Pierre Berger was not a Frenchman, but a Leader in the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians).
To understand the Indians of Montana who are unaffiliated with any established reservations, it is necessary to go back to early French Colonizations of North America. For it is from these early explorers that one finds the progenitors of the Landless Indians. Even the surnames are the same, since the French encouraged their men to marry Indian women. These mixed blood descendents, at first concentrated along the Great Lakes, scattered throughout the North Eaastern states and Canada, but maintained their greatest number along the Red River of the North, which had its source in North Dakota and Minnesota, but which flows north into Lake Winnipeg and ultimately Hudson Bay. And so it is that these people living in Montana today, whose ancestry was predominately a non-native, are called displaced.
These people, now known generally as "The Landless Indians", have had various names; half-breeds, bois-brule, and Metis. The early French referred to them as the Metis, a French adjective meaning cross-breed.
Perhaps the word Metis is the best for them, for their degree of Indian blood was seldom fixed at exactly one-half. The child of an Indian mother and French father would be half-blood, but when the offspring reached maturity he might marry either a full-blood Indian or a full-blood Caucasian. Thus as years went by, and intermarrying continued, the individuals could possibly become almost pure Indian or pure white. So too the blood became mixed between Indians of various tribes. For while in Canada it was the Cree with whom the French usually married, in the United States it was the Chippewa. Thus there emerged, along the Red River, particularly, a group of people who were neither Indian nor white; neither Cree nor Chippewa nor French, but a mixture of all these. They represented the emergence of a new race indigenous to the continent.
The new people adapted traits from their French fathers and Indian mothers. For their livelihood they depended primarily upon the buffalo as did their Indian forebears. But unlike their Indian grandparents, the hunt stemmed from Red River settlements, where they each fall returned with pemmican (for which they became famous) to be sold or traded to the Hudson Bay Company for winter food items. Their transportation was not confined to horse alone, as was the Indians', for their distinguishing characteristic was the Half-Breed Cart, a unique invention of their own, made entirely of wood. Its wheels, sometimes six feet in diameter, had very broad tires, while a small body rested upon the axle and shafts. Each cart was drawn by a single pony, and could carry from 600 to 800 pounds. Since no grease was used on the axle, the noise made by these carts was almost insufferable. Nearly every Northern Plains writer has attempted to describe the horrible screeching that a train of such carts made; but probably none has been presented more graphically than did Joseph Kinsey Howard when he said "it was as if a thousand fingernails were drawn across a thousand panes of glass". Later, when metal was used in their construction and the wheels could be greased, the Metis generally called their vehicles Red River Carts. In either case, however, the cart served a double purpose. In long winters, a man would lift the body easily from the wheels, hitch a horse to it, and have a carriole or sleigh.
While the geographical heart of the new race seems to have been along the Red River near present day Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, and Pembina, North Dakota, not all of them lived in Canada. True, the majority of the French-Cree descendents lived there. On the American side of the line a goodly number also lived-- those who were closer related to the Chippewa. Their center was Pembina, established as a trading center in 1870, a factor which gives it the distinction of being the oldest settlement in the northwest. These Indians moved constantly westward in their pursuit of the buffalo-- along the Missouri River and its tributaries, but often west and south again to the valleys of the rivers there.
Individual members penetrated the now Montana region, too, often serving as guides for the fur traders. One of them, Jacob Berger (often spelled Bergier or Bercier and always pronounced so by the Metis today) was in the employ of the American Fur Company in 1830; others followed in his steps.
But it was not only with the fur trade that the Metis came into Montana. As the years passed, many carts filled with Red River hunters and trappers came into Montana Territory, and settled in regions where buffalo were plentiful. In making this move, the Metis followed somewhat the pattern of their Indian heritage, a nomadic tendency to follow their food. Unlike the Indians, they built cabins, and stayed sometimes several years. Then, group by group, they returned to relatives and friends in the Pembina region, where after a succession of years of residence, they moved again to Montana. Thus it was that durning the decades of the 1850's, 1860's and 1870's, the creaking carts groaned their way back and forth between the little settlement at Pembina and the unspoiled valleys of Montana.
Perhaps one of the best known settlements (for it became more permanent than did the others who so frequently left their cabins and returned to the Red river) is the one at the present Lewistown in central Montana. A group of Metis left the Pembina district in 1870 and headed Westward with no particular desitination in mind save that of trailing the buffalo. One of the members described facets of that expedition well when she wrote, shortly before her death in Lewistown in 1943, the following account:
"While we roamed the prairies of the western Dakotas, we were always in the company of people of part Indian blood, and traveled in many groups. We left Dakota in 1870 shortly after we were married, and set out traveling all over the plains, just camping here and there without a thought of settling permanently in any place just following the buffalo trails. you might think we lived the life of real Indians, but one thing we had always with us which they did not-- religion. Every night we had prayer meetings, and just before a buffalo hunt we see our men on bended knees in prayer. Our men did all the hunting, and we women did all the tanning of buffalo hides, jerky meat making,pemmican and moccasin making. For other supplies, we generally had some trader with us, like Francis Janeaux, who always had a supply of tea, sugar, tobacco, and so on".
(From the influence of their French fathers, the Metis devoutly followed the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church. So devoted to their church were they that as a matter of general practice they seldom embarked upon a hunt without having a priest accompany them. When they stayed away from the settlement over a long period of time, they observed Sunday with recitations of the rosary and with prayers.)
After having camped along the Milk River for several years, where game was becoming increasingly scarce, Pierre Berger, leader of the group, called the members around him to discuss the situation. he recalled that previously a Cree Indian had told him of a spot across the Missouri River where small game and birds were abundant and where grass grew high. The land sounded promising, so in May 1879, twenty-five families left the familiar Milk river area in their squeaking carts and started for this new region. As it was necessary for them to go by way of Fort Benton and then eastward until they came to the Judith Mountains, it took most of the summer for the group to make the journey.
Here at their destination, the Judith Basin looked fertile and inviting. Berger decided that this area would provide an excellent home site. Twenty-five familiwes built cabins and hurriedly made preparations for the appraching winter. True to the description given by the Cree, game was plentiful. So during the decade of the 1880's (and at a time when the Metis who remained behind in their accustomed haunts on the Red River were starving) the Spring Creek colony flourished. Soon Janeaux established a trading post for them; in time other establishments sprang up, and a colorful Montana frontier village, destined later to become Lewistown, was born. Early Metis occupancy is reflected in the names of two Lewistown streets, Morasse and Oullette, while Janeaux bears the name of ther trader.
In 1869, while Montana Territory was being colonized by Red River hunters-- at least on a temporary basis-- an historical incident occured that left its mark upon the landless Indians of Montana. It has been the prime cause of confusion about them ever since. When the Hudson Bay Company relinquished its charter to Rupert's land and the Dominion of Canada was formed, the Metis in the Red River settlements became dissatisfied. Finally, in 1869, they established a provisional government, a land they called Assiniboia, now Manitoba. Louis Riel, that remarkable Metis, was their leader. When the British successfully overcame the Metis government, Riel and many of his followers went to Montana Territory. A few years later, he was called upon to return to Canada to lead his people in their fight over a land policy, and revolted against the government. Their military leader Gabriel Dumont went to Riel and convinced him that he should return to Canada to head the revolt. When the British army crushed this second rebellion, more Metis than ever came to the United States, particularly to Montana Territory. Riel, however, was captured by the british, tried for treason, and subsequently hanged in Ragina. Gabriel Dumont lived for many years in the Lewistown area, particulary near Grass Range where he brought several boys orphaned by the Rebellion to his childless home, but he later returned to Canada, where he died.
The largest and by far the best Metis Community was that on Spring Creek in Judith Basin. The hunters who founded it had chosen one of Montana's most beautiful locations, midway in the green well-watered Judith Basin. Twenty-five families came in Red River carts in 1879, and thereafter the colony grew steadily; before any appreciable white migration occured, it had 150 families.Tragic Story of the dispossessed Metis of Montana

There were a few mentions in Rick Maese's recent Dan Snyder opus about the owner's continued relationship with Clinton Portis. To wit:
The owner's influence has stretched at times into the locker room, perhaps most notably with former running back Clinton Portis. The two still chat often, and Portis said Snyder even sent him a text message last Wednesday at 12:01 a.m. wishing his former star player a happy new year.
"I think so many people are intimidated by Mr. Snyder and think he's a jerk. In reality, he's actually a fun guy," Portis said. "Half the world hates you, half the world loves you. Your players love you. You don't find that ironic that players never speak bad about Mr. Snyder and everyone else can't stand him?"
These quotes came from a conversation between Portis and The Post's Kent Babb, when college football bowl season placed the two men in the same location. And through devious means (I asked), I was able to listen to the entire conversation, which contained several other noteworthy nuggets. Also, transcribing fellow reporters' interviews for blog content is really trailblazing stuff. Very proud of myself.
One of Portis's strongest statements, as it turned out, came right at the beginning, when he was asked about Snyder's maturation.
"I think he's done everything that's been asked," the former running back said. "You know, I think he was [initially] hands-on. People wanted him to kind of [relinquish] that role and step behind the scenes, and he stepped behind the scenes. He gave up control and stopped dipping in as everyone asked. So as usual, I think Mr. Snyder has done everything asked of him, whether it's bringing in players, whether it's getting things done at the facility, whether it's changing things around, whether it's having the best staff available. So what more can you ask of him?"
Portis went on to talk about things that make him like and appreciate Snyder.
"I mean, you look at Mr. Snyder, he's one of the easier people to talk to," Portis said. "That's basically it. You just need to go out and talk to him. I think so many people are intimidated by Mr. Snyder, and think Mr. Snyder is a jerk, but in reality he's actually a fun guy. He's in an opportunity where how can you trust? You're Daniel Snyder, the owner of the Washington Redskins. Who can you trust? You know, half the world hates you, half the people love you. Your players love you — you don't find that ironic that players never speak bad about Mr. Snyder and everyone else can't stand him?…
"I just think he [goes] above and beyond. I think when you look at Mr. Snyder, to say why do I like him, really giving me the opportunity to be a Washington Redskins player, bringing me in, financially having me set, it even goes beyond that. On New Year's I got a text from Mr. Snyder at 12:01 saying Happy New Year. So for that consideration alone, after you just fired Mike Shanahan and you're going through this whole thing, just to have that moment to say Happy New Year's, I think that says a lot. It's always the little things that Mr. Snyder has done….
"I think the best thing he ever done was be able to listen and understand. You know, I think so many people had us confused, saying I went to Mr. Snyder to have my way. I never went to Mr. Snyder to have my way. I went to Mr. Snyder to talk life and learn to become a man, to try to learn business. I think for him to have shared those moments with me and sharing his story… [from] not having anything, becoming the person and the man that he is today, I think means a lot. I don't think people understand. You can get to a situation in sports, most people, [when] to the world you're at your highest, [and] with yourself you're empty inside. I think I reached that point a couple times with the Washington Redskins, and always being able to go in and talk to him about it meant a lot….
"I think he might exaggerate his [childhood] conditions and try to make himself seem like he's so tough and bad, but in reality, just knowing that was his path to where he is now. I mean, you look at becoming the youngest owner, the transition as a businessman, what he's done with this organization from just that one person who believed when everybody else gave up on him. I think that story can relate to so many people. That's all you need is one person to believe in you, and all of a sudden he blossomed."
Obviously I'm omitting the questions here in favor of the response, but toward the end, there were a couple of queries that returned to this idea of maturation.
"He's starting to get gray hairs," Portis joked. "He's learning. You know, if you were to buy the team today, I don't think you're gonna get it right from Day One. I think you're gonna have to grow, you're gonna have to learn the business, you're gonna have to learn how to run it, the people you need to run it. All this was a learning experience. Most owners have their teams 20, 30 years. It's passed down, it's still in the family. You look at Mr. Snyder, that wasn't the case …
"I think in D.C., man, they choose their own villain," Portis continued later. "And once you become the villain, it's hard to get out. I think when you look at Mr. Snyder, he's gonna figure this out, that's the good thing about it. The team isn't gonna change. He's gonna figure it out and he's gonna get them headed in the right direction. And he's not gonna be satisfied until he brings a championship back to that city. That's the wonderful thing about it. Because as many people that's gonna give up on the organization or the team, he's not gonna give up, he's not gonna bend, he's not gonna change. That's the positive. You know he's in it for the long run."

Ghetto Film School Honors Peter Becker and The Criterion Collection at 2013 Benefit Tonight
The Ghetto Film School (GFS), an award-winning, non-profit, independent film organization has announced that it will honor Peter Becker and The Criterion Collection at its 9th Annual Spring Benefit Dinner tonight, June 12, 2013, at The Standard High Line in New York City.
At the benefit, GFS will also award scholarships to its college-bound Fellows Program participants, continuing in their 13-year strong commitment to developing and supporting young filmmakers. Scholarship presenters and attendees at the event will include directors
David O. Russell, Lee Daniels, Joshua Marston, and Nelson George, actors Tracy Morgan and Julia Stiles and Commissioner of the NYC Mayor's Office of Media & Entertainment Katherine Oliver. GFS will also pay tribute to the Benefit Committee that includes dedicated supporters Spike Jonze, Sarah Jones and Blake Lively.
"To be associated with Joe Hall and the Ghetto Film School is an honor in and of itself," says Becker. "To be invited to this event to represent the Criterion Collection makes me doubly proud. The students that come through Ghetto Film School are an astonishingly inspiring and focused lot, and The Sessions we have with them every summer discussing classic cinema are among the highlights of the Criterion calendar."
The Criterion Collection has been a longtime supporter of GFS since its inception in 2000. The company is dedicated to compiling the greatest cinema from around the world and reissuing enhanced editions in superb technical quality with added features that enrich the experience and appreciation of the films. As President of The Criterion Collection, Peter brings this Passion for film to GFS, inspiring the next generation of young filmmakers. His commitment is realized in countless ways - from leading film appreciation classes at Criterion and serving on film juries to donating thousands of films from The Collection to their film libraries and events.

Style: 37863222 Color Code:
Beautiful strapless mini dress featuring allover floral applique and overlay detail at the bust. Ribbon tie with hook-and-eye closure and exposed back zip for an effortless fit. Scalloped trim adds intricate detail for an elevated look. Fully lined.
Did not work for me
Loved the online pics of this dress. I ordered the ivory and it is more of a pale peach than ivory. The top part has a tie at the top in the back, but no stretch. Even though I had the right size for me, the top didn't feel like it would stay put, and would shimmy down. For me, if wearing a strapless dress or top, it needs to have smocking or some kind of elastic stretch to stay put. Sadly this did not work for me.
I got this in the beige color. The dress is more orange than what the picture shows (the picture is more like ivory but you can also tell from the overall quality of the picture that it's heavily filtered). I was a bit eeeekkk when I first saw the real thing because of the unexpected color but after some getting used to decided that it's not so bad. I'm a XS in FP top, 25/26 in waist and got the dress in XS. I would've sized up to S for some more space around belly and butt if not for my incredibly small chests (34AA/A). I mean... it is a strapless dress and I have to get my priorities straight! XS still fits overall, it's just it would be nice to have a bit more space. Very glad that I made the purchase! Absolutely love the overlay details at the front and the bow on the back!
I bought this in the cream and love it. It definitely runs large- I am 5'9, pant size 4, chest 36D- and I bought a medium. It still was roomy in the chest, and slightly roomy in the body, but I thought a small would be tight in the chest. Still, perhaps its not for smaller chested girls.

The 'Dancing with the Stars' champion had a huge fragment removed from her back but she is 'completely pain free' now.
Jennifer Grey is recovering at home following surgery to treat a back injury she sustained while competing in U.S. show "Dancing with the Stars". The "Dirty Dancing" actress was crowned the queen of the dancefloor last month but almost pulled out of the finale altogether after rupturing a disc in her back, prompting a brief hospital visit.
Grey went under the knife for a minor operation to fix the injury last week - and the surgery was a success. The actress tells People.com, "I'm still recovering at home. I have to rest a bit more, but I feel great - completely pain free."
Doctor Robert S. Bray Jr. reveals he removed "a huge fragment" from Grey's back during the procedure.

Gadget Review: SRS iWow 3D Audio Enhancer for iPod, iPad and iPhone
In the search for better sound from portable devices, such as iPods, a number of add-ons (or plug-ins, literally) are available. There are several small headphone amps that you can use with an iPod or other portable music player, and then there's the $70 SRS iWow 3D. This device plugs into the dock connector of your iPod, iPhone or iPad, and has a headphone jack for you to plug in your headphones or earbuds.
I tested the SRS iWow 3D on a number of devices, and with several different headphones. SRS claims that this device "Deliver[s] natural and immersive sound with deep, rich bass," and that it "Dynamically locates and restores audio details buried in source material." It does indeed change the sound of your music; the question is, is that change good or not? I think this type of device is something you will either love or hate, and that there's not much middle ground.
First of all, the SRS iWow 3D does provide a feeling of surround sound, or what the company calls "immersive" sound. It's actually quite impressive; there is a noticeable separation among instruments when it is on. While I wouldn't call it surround sound – which SRS does not – it is more spacious. I don't know exactly how this voodoo is worked, but some of it involves equalization and a change in overall volume. When you connect the SRS iWow 3D to your device, you press a small LED-lit button to turn it on; if the LED is off, it is merely passing the sound through without altering it. You can instantly notice that the volume is slightly increased, so to compare, you need to adjust the volume to try to hear both signals at the same loudness. The high end and low end are noticeably increased, and there is an overall augmentation of bass, something that portable players often lack.
In my tests with Beyerdynamic DT 990 32 amp headphones, I noticed a bit of hiss at the high end, with some types of music (this was more prominent with orchestral music than rock or pop); it seems that this treble boost is too much for some recordings. Jerry Garcia's voice on Ripple sounds less smooth; the drums on U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday are too punchy; and the bass on Brian Eno's Just Another Day is almost distorted; and Bob Dylan's voice on Desolation Row sounds processed and hissy.
On the other hand, when I plugged in a pair of Sennheiser PX 100-II i headphones, Bruce Springsteen's Thunder Road sounded much better through the SRS iWow 3D; Lou Reed's voice on Pale Blue Eyes stood out much more; and the acoustic guitar background on Bob Dylan's Forever Young took on much more space.
(Note that most of my tests with classical music showed that the device, at least with good headphones, doesn't help much.)
I performed the above tests first on an iPod classic. If you have an iOS device, you can use SRS's iWow application to choose the type of output (headphones, speakers or car), and choose from advanced settings, such as Wide Surround, Deep Bass and High Treble. This gives you a bit more flexibility in the way the sound is rendered, and you can adjust these settings to fit your headphones. Results were a bit better using the device with the app.
My verdict is this: if you have good, relatively expensive headphones, the SRS iWow 3D won't improve the sound of your music, and the adjustments it makes may not work with your headphones. However, if you use earbuds or portable headphones, notably with limited bass response, the SRS iWow 3D will give them a much better sound. Also, if you use an iOS device, the SRS iWow app will give you a bit more control over the sound.
This said, I think each listener will need to decide if they like the type of sound this device provides. You should ideally test this with your headphones to see how you feel about the sound.
One note: the LED on the device is bright, and, together with the actual signal processing, the SRS iWow 3D uses up a fair amount of battery life. SRS claims that this reduces battery life by approximately 18%. That's a lot, if you use your iPod for several hours a day, and could be a deal-breaker.

Authentic: Nilgiri's pastry chef, Munish Sharma, makes light work
of preparing food for diners.
Photo: Tanya Lake
Annette Shun Wah enjoys the pastry chef's floor show while sampling the rich and spicy flavours of Goan cuisine.
Nilgiri's, 81-83 Christie Street, St Leonards, 9966 0636
Lunch Sun-Fri noon-3pm; dinner seven days 6-10pm
Nilgiri's used to be the constantly bustling restaurant on the ground floor of the Crows Nest shopping plaza. It was one of those places that you simply couldn't miss. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case with its current location just up the road in St Leonards.
With an admirable entrepreneurial spirit, Nilgiri's has expanded its merchandising lines - cookbooks, prepare-at-home meals and cooking lessons - and the ground floor of the restaurant is dedicated to the needs of the take-home shopper.
The brightly lit, sparsely furnished shop isn't quite the introduction that you'd expect to one of Sydney's best Indian restaurants. But once we've scaled the stairs and get a whiff of the aromas from the kitchen, the surroundings suddenly seem much warmer.
The staff help, too. Friendly, firm and very confident, they settle us at one of the best tables in the room, with a good view of what is the chef's table during the week. Tonight we watch the pastry chef, Munish Sharma, deftly turning perfectly golden breads and Nilgiri's justly famous masala dosais on the griddle.
The menu changes regularly to feature different regional cuisines. We've struck it lucky this month with the focus on the cooking of Goa, which is characterised by rich and spicy curries, seafood and flavours that are reminders of the region's many cultural and religious settlers, especially the Portuguese.
As head chef Ajoy Joshi tells us, this is a very spicy cuisine and, apart from the vindaloo, he's willing to tone down the heat if required. Tone down the heat? Talk about a red rag. We immediately order the lamb shank vindaloo and work outwards from there.
We survey the room while we munch on pappadams dipped in carrot and yoghurt raita and sample the daily selection of tasty pickles. They must have been serious about the food being incendiary since there's a former UN weapons inspector at a nearby table, but he's definitely looking alert rather than alarmed.
We start with fish rechaido, small pieces of barramundi marinated in chilli, garlic and vinegar, crumbed with semolina and fried. The result is succulent, chilli hot and crackles in your mouth.
If you've ever had to share a dosai and missed out on the filling because you've been allocated the end portion, you'll appreciate the mini dosais served at Nilgiri's. I'm sure they're not as easy to prepare as the pastry chef makes it look, but they're certainly delicious: light, golden pancakes made from rice and lentil flours, encasing a spicy potato mix, with delicious dipping sauces on the side. Forget the cutlery, this is definitely finger food.
Chef Ajoy serves us and remembers one of my friends who attended a cooking class here years ago. Now, I'm not saying that my friend isn't memorable, but the chef doesn't forget a face.
Chef Ajoy's dazzling smile, cheery and confident demeanour and enthusiasm for food go a long way to explaining why the cooking at Nilgiri's is so authentic and so good. When the mains arrive we truly appreciate the vibrancy of Goan cooking. The colours are beautiful: the deep burnished red of the lamb shank vindaloo, the creamy tomato red of Goan prawns and the clear yellow of the dish of the day, chicken stuffed with dates and cottage cheese, gently cooked in a coconut milk sauce flavoured with fennel and coriander.
It's the flavour spectrum that really sets this food apart from the usual Indian fare. Not three thick curries that all taste the same, but strong and distinct flavours in every dish. Even the side dishes are outstanding: a dahl of red kidney beans and yellow lentils; and the subzi of the day, spinach mixed through a combination of mushrooms and fresh peas.
We mop up the sauces with rice and the delicious freshly cooked parathas that I've watched the pastry chef labour over all night and we understand the satisfied looks on the faces of our fellow diners.
Nilgiri's knack for marketing may have expanded the business, but after a meal like that, who needs anything more?

Tommy Bahama Announces 'Manhattan Island' On Fifth Avenue NYC
Tommy Bahama, the island-inspired lifestyle brand will open its first global flagship store located at 551 Fifth Avenue in New York. The store is the largest Tommy Bahama retail location worldwide and features a 5,000-square-foot store featuring men's and women's apparel, swimwear, footwear, accessories and home decor, the 1,300 square-foot Marlin Bar, the only free-standing bar between the Empire State Building and Central Park, as well as a 6,700-square-foot Tommy Bahama Restaurant and Bar, located on the second floor. The retail store opens on Saturday, November 17, followed by The Tommy Bahama Restaurant and Bar, in early December which was delayed due to the after effects of Hurricane Sandy.
"We are excited to open our first New York City location on Fifth Avenue, one of the most prestigious shopping avenues in the world. This launch is especially significant as we celebrate 20 years in business and seek new ways to elevate our brand both in the U.S. and internationally," states Terry Pillow CEO of Tommy Bahama. "It took us a long time to find the right space, but we are confident that this is the perfect location for us--New York's Fifth Avenue is the epicenter of luxury, style and the heart of Mid-town Manhattan."
Located in the landmarked Fred F. French Building which was built in 1927, the Tommy Bahama store was designed by Michael Neumann Architecture LLC and emulates an environment evocative of the brand – light, airy and relaxed – bringing to life the relaxed surroundings of a resort coupled with the sophistication and worldliness found in Manhattan. Paying homage to the city, the facade of the two-story location features louvered screens created from reclaimed wood from the Coney Island Boardwalk, Cuenca limestone floor tiles, white screens that are perforated to create images of palm trees, a spiral staircase, and an oak plank ceiling that is weathered by sun and salt water to evoke the decking of a dock.
Offering an innovative retail and restaurant experience, shoppers will be able to enjoy a day of retail therapy and unwind at The Tommy Bahama Restaurant and Bar, which occupies the second floor and features a full range of eclectic, island-inspired fare for lunch and dinner from Executive Chef Jason Michael Krantz, formerly Executive Chef of Danny Meyer's Blue Smoke. The Marlin Bar, located on the first floor, will provide a serene refuge from the fast-paced environment outside its windows and will feature programming such as happy hours appropriately named "Island Time".

Gunners keep in touch
Page Tools
Arsenal will enter the new year five points adrift of English Premier League leader Chelsea after a hard-fought and somewhat fortunate 1-0 win over Newcastle on Wednesday night.
A deflected long-range strike from skipper Patrick Vieira in first-half stoppage time proved enough to secure three precious points for the Gunners.
It was an outcome that was harsh on Newcastle, which dominated for long periods in front of its own supporters. Newcastle, playing without both skipper Alan Shearer and Patrick Kluivert, was desperately unlucky not to be awarded a penalty just before Vieira's crucial goal.
The Arsenal captain hailed his side's performance as proof that it would push Chelsea all the way in what promises to be a tight three-way title battle following Manchester United's return to form.
"There are still 19 games and every single game we play is going to be like tonight," Vieira said. "But if we play like that and fight like that until the end of the season, we will have a good chance. We just have to believe in ourselves."
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, who revealed that Vieira had been in doubt for the match after a bout of gastroenteritis, said the win had demonstrated the character of his squad.

Congressman Franken.
I wonder why all the close ones go to the dems…..
Regretfully New York will remain part of the problem and not the solution. Hopefully the \new\ Republican majority will live up to their stated conservative principles and restore the Nation to our past glories.
Just a halfway decent Republican candidate wouldve beat Bishop in an landslide.
Altshuler was a career politician in training. Hopefully a real tea party guy will step up in 2 years.
Thank God. Everything about Altshuler made me cringe. In 30 years of voting, this is the first time I saw someone make lawn signs not for a candidate but against one. That's about as constructive as his businesses have been — not.
You would think I'd be for the businessman, but this one comes from an entirely different place than those of us who are trying to build American companies with Americans.
So the carpetbagger who convinces companies to outsource good American jobs in the name of the almighty dollar lost? Perhaps the people of New York have a little more sense than I thought.
When you look at Randy Altschuler's business record…He hired 250 "clerks" to take orders to refurbish electronic equipment—and then has the equipment refurbished in INDIA!
Thank you Randy for keeping the thousands of INDIA workers employed and not AMERICANS…Phony!
One good thing is that with this race being so razor close it sent the established career politician Bishop a solid message.
Although not a big fan of Bishop, Altschuler would have been worse for our towns. He is, as quoted above, a true carpetbagger and a wanne be politician for life. Once he got in he would do what was best for himself only.
Where is a person who fight ONLY for the people and not for what he/she can get for themselves. All politicians should have term limits of 2 terms only, then we would have a gov't for the people, and by the people.
They both stink, it's all still group think. I suspect that the 'party' told Altschuler to stand down because the House control had been established. If it was a swing seat, it would've been the war of the parties, on the tax payer's dime. Agreed on the term limits! "Career Politician" should be an oxymoron.
I don't know that I agree about the "career politician" being a bad thing. Frankly, I want to go to a "career surgeon" if I need medical attention or a "career lawyer" if I need legal advice. Politicians need to remember that they are there to serve the people, not themselves, but I have no issue with someone choosing that career path.
I think it's an unfortunate myth in our country (promulgated most recently by certain individuals) that being a good, effective leader is just something that happens, that anyone can be a leader. Unfortunately, that's not true, and we've seen that time and time again.
Our society is too complex these days to accept that the gentleman farmer with no previous government experience — who serves for a few years before retiring back to his property — is the epitome of what a leader should be.
You will note that all your beloved Teabaggers, at least those that were elected, are already looking out for Numero Uno — that is, themselves! Repeal health care — where do I sign up for my program and why doesn't it start now and not in January? Deficits — let's increase the deficit by extending humongous tax breaks for millionaires. Protecting individuals — throw the unemployed under the bus!
Give me a break! We have the best politicians that money can buy and we will continue that way for a long, long time. If this country can survive for that long!
Oh Art…you're soooooooooooo funny!!!! Teabaggers??? did you think that one up yourself??? I get it! the sexual reference, right? So original and insightful. Just like the rest of your post. Tax breaks to millionaires, of course! You figured it all out!! It wasn't the dem super majorities that took high deficits and turned them into unrecoverable exploding ones, it was the "teabaggers" who aren't even in power yet that did it.
Art…you're a genius! Will you be our dictator when the dems finish their hatchet job on our freedoms…please????
So, Mike, you object to the overuse and misleading "teabaggers"? But I bet you pepper your tirades against Obama by using "ObamaCare," another misleading and false meme vomited up by the Republican party.
By the way, it was the tea partiers who first called themselves "teabaggers."
One of the newly elected "teabaggers" did, in fact, complain that his Congressional health care coverage would not take effect for 28 days.
Regarding the "tax break for millionaires" — there have been numerous analyses that have shown those tax cuts will not, in the long run, help the economy but will add to the deficit (you know, the ones the Republicans are soooo concerned about).
The road to unmanageable deficits started with GW Bush, who went to war with Iraq to avenge his daddy's honor but without any way of paying for it. Ten years later, we're dealing with the results of his bad decisions.
You must know me so well.
1) Did you ever hear me use the term Obamacare? Can you prove that?
2) Who was the tea partier that first called himself a teabagger? Can you prove that?
3) Why can't you name the newly elected official that complained about his healthcare? Let me guess. Can't prove it?
4) I have proof that cutting taxes for the rich expands the tax base and stimulates the economy. See Ronald Reagan. Where is your proof that soaking the rich has the same results?
5) And finally what proof do you have that Bush went to war for his "daddy's honor" and where is your evidence that I supported GW Bush?
No facts Marty. Not one. Just assumptions, distortions, name calling, false accusations, and when you're backs against the wall…blame Bush.
Do your homework Marty. This time focus on the facts. Then maybe you can teach me something someday.
Scaramucci pledged to begin "an era of new good feeling"

ROSEDALE, Md. (AP) -- Officials say the fire at a derailed chemical-carrying CSX train outside Baltimore is under control.
Capt. Bruce Schultz of the Baltimore County Office of the Fire Marshal's investigative services announced early Wednesday that the blaze in Rosedale, Md., a suburb east of Baltimore, was called under control late Tuesday just before midnight.
Schultz says CSX has moved unaffected cars away from the derailed cars and the fire department operations have been reduced to a fire watch at this time.
Federal investigators will spend the coming days piecing together what caused the train to collide with a trash truck Tuesday afternoon.
Authorities say some of the derailed cars — at least one carrying hazardous materials — caught fire and an explosion rattled homes at least a half-mile away.
