Most Morrow families that lived in the same areas as Anne Morrow Lindbergh's
ancestors seem to have family legends linking her to their family trees. In
fact, some who were never close have the same legends, too. My own family
has the same legends and was very close geographically, even including a
branch that was in Huntington, WV, at the same time as her father and
grandfather. I've never found a provable link.
The best account I've seen of Anne Morrow Lindbergh's ancestry is in the
Alexander Morrow 1745-1817 of Brooke County, (W)Virginia and His
Descendants; compiled by Anne Morrow Nees and edited by her brother, George
Lester Morrow, it was published in 1993 by Gateway Press of Baltimore.
Basically, the key lines are these:
Alexander Morrow came from Northern Ireland to America in 1792/3, with his
wife, Susan Cassidy, and their seven children, all born in Ireland. One
daughter was already married. Her husband, Robert Morehead, and one child
also came at the same time.
By 1796, Robert Morehead was in Brooke County, one of two counties north of
Wheeling in West Virginia's northern panhandle. At the time, of course, it
was still Virginia. By 1799, at least two of Alexander's sons were also
there and Alexander Morrow had joined St. John's Episcopal church in Brooke
County by 1800. He and his sons, John, William, James and Alexander (Jr)
bought 500 acres in 1803. The land is said to be immediately on the
Pennsylvania state line (since the panhandle is only ten miles wide, it
couldn't have been far!).
Alexander and Susan are buried in the St. John's churchyard, east of
Follansbee, WV (and Steubenville, OH). [My own first-immigrant Irish
ancestor, Charles Morrow, lived briefly in Steubenville about 1816-17.
Earlier, he served in the War of 1812 from Bucks County, PA]
The book's compiler and editor descend from Alexander's eldest son, John
Morrow, who married Eleanor Welch. They had at least eight children. John
and Eleanor are also buried in the St. John's churchyard.
[Note: The authors also explicitly address errors in Worth Ray's Tennessee
Cousins where it shows Alexander as a descendant of Daniel Morrow, who
settled in Norfolk, VA, in the 1640's. Tennessee Cousins seems to be more
widely available in libraries than most Morrow family histories.]
William, died in 1839, age 70, buried at St. John's.
Margaret, wife of Robert Morehead, died in 1848, and is buried in Keene
Presbyterian Cemetery, Coshocton County, OH.
James, who married twice (Ruth Davis, 1809, and Nancy Elliott, 1813).
Alexander, Jr, married Susannah Welch. They, too, are buried in the st.
John's churchyard.
Nancy, who married Samuel Logue -- the authors note that Alexander's will
names her as Nancy "Mittoe" -- a name they cannot otherwise account for.
Elizabeth married David Pollack ("Poke" in Alexander's will).
Anne Morrow Lindberg descends from James and Nancy (Elliott) Morrow.
James died in 1825, leaving no will. His first marriage is believed to have
been childless, although there is doubtful evidence of a daughter named
Rachel; the second produced at least six children, of whom six lived to
adulthood. Sons Charles, Aaron, and James Morrow all lived in Washington
County, PA, in 1849, when they and other heirs of James Morrow sold their
inherited property.
Alexander Morrow, second of James' four sons, remained in the West Virginia
panhandle. In 1850, he lived in New Manchester, Hancock County, which was
later renamed Fairview. He was a blacksmith and later proprietor of a
Fairview hotel until his death in 1871; his widow, Sarah Jane, sold the
hotel in 1873.
Their eldest son (of eight children) was James Elmore Morrow, born in
Fairview, 1837. He married Clara Johnson in Cumberland, MD, in 1867. He died
in Englewood, NJ, in 1904, where his son, Dwight Whitney Morrow, then lived.
He was buried in Uniondale Cemetery, Allegheny County, PA.
James Elmore Morrow was, in modern terms, an educator. Dwight W. Morrow was
the fourth of his eight children [Also noted is the erroneous addition of
four other children to this family in "Tennessee Cousins."] He was most
widely known for his tenure as president of Marshall College in Huntington,
WV. The Morrow Library at Marshall University is named for him. Late in his
career, he served as principal of Allegheny High School in Pennsylvania.
Dwight Morrow was born in Huntington in 1873. He died in 1931, at 58. The
New York Times page one story of his death begins: "Dwight W. Morrow, United
States Senator, former Ambassador to Mexico, former partner in J.P. Morgan &
Co., and repeatedly mentioned in the past two years as a candidate for
President of the United States, died unexpectedly . . ."
Anne Spencer Morrow, Charles Lindbergh's wife, was second of the Dwight
Whitney Morrow's four children. She had one brother and two sisters. She met
her husband when he was visiting Mexico as part of his celebratory tour
following his famous trans-Atlantic flight.
I have the book, which is well indexed. If you can name an ancestor you
believe was related, I will be glad to see if they are named in this book.
As noted above, there are many coincidences of time and geography between
this family and my own, but I cannot find a link.

Growing up with a strong sense of spirituality, Kate searched long and hard throughout the world to find the God who made sense of that spiritual longing. After catching glimpses of God in many cultures along the way, Kate finally found God and her life was transformed for ever.

Kate has had some personal battles to face, including the loss of both her parents, the loss of a baby, and debilitating ME.
She has recently battled breast cancer, from which God has miraculously healed her. Sea Changed encourages readers to recognise the unseen hand that shifts our perspective, alters our trajectory and lifts us up even in our darkest moments.

At around noon, a changeover takes place, as the students who went home for some sleep start to file back in, relieving colleagues who pulled all-nighters. Jordan Sparks, a 20-year-old visual artist at Ryerson whose wardrobe this weekend appears composed primarily of ironic, Ninja Turtles-themed T-shirts, has managed to complete virtually all the graphical elements for his team, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (makers of the tower defence game). Miraculously, he has done this without the aid of energy drinks, and is now itching to go take a nap. At the adjacent table, team Aardvark is getting close to animating Trixie.
Still dangerously caffeinated, team Bombard powers through, representing the only trace of enthusiasm in what has become a very subdued room. At one point, a particularly animated Bombard member will accidentally smack the team's Red Bull pyramid, sending cans crashing everywhere. He will then giggle uncontrollably for a full minute.
Sunday 3:00 p.m.
After a day and a half of slowly waning enthusiasm, there's a buzz of excitement running through the DMZ now – partially because it's the 48-hour deadline is fast approaching, but mostly because in a couple of hours everybody gets to go home.
Team WTF is, for the most part, done, thanks to Mr. Gupta's programming prowess. The team showcases their app, which pits two players against each other on a chess-like board, with images of office staff representing the playing pieces. The game looks unpolished, and the frenetic work of creating a tutorial mode looks likely to be dashed by the looming deadline, but for 48 hours' work, it's not bad at all.
Nearby, team Bombard are ironing out the bugs of what they have decided to call "Weed Wacker." They have also managed to re-build the Red Bull pyramid, this time seven cans high. At the other side of the room, the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen are tweaking the cool-down time on their spaceship cannons.
It'll be another month before any of these teams learn whether they've won. The judges will have to sift through some 200 entries from students all over the country before picking a winner of the $25,000 grand prize, the $5,000 second-place prize, and the 10 other sub-categories (whose winners will walk away with a custom Xbox video game console).
For now, the most important thing is to make sure these games actually work. At the team Bombard table, two students are typing and re-typing the same line of code. Every time one of them hits Enter, the programming software returns an exclamation mark and some new and exotic error. This goes on for about 15 minutes straight, interspersed with slightly less profanity than you'd expect. Finally, the software acquiesces, accepting the code. One of the students raises his fists in the air triumphantly and hums the first few bars of the Super Mario Bros. tune.
These last few hours of the appathon are supposed to simulate "crunch time" – the tech industry's term for the last few hours, days, weeks or months (depending on the size of the project) before deadline. It's a kind of unspoken rule that employees work even harder during crunch time. In effect, it's not that much different than what accountants go through during tax season, or chefs during lunch hour.
That said, the tech industry is rife with examples of crunch time run amok. A few years ago, the working hours at Electronic Arts got so bad that some employees' spouses started a blog documenting them, and several staffers eventually filed multimillion-dollar lawsuits against EA for unpaid overtime.
But there's something special about video games, something that drives a lot of these students to pursue a career in the industry even if the working conditions turn out to be not all that different from the conditions of this appathon. More than any other entertainment medium (perhaps with the exception of the Internet itself), video games are what a lot of these students connected with the most while growing up. Certainly, the process of creating the finished product is a lot more complex and mundane than the process of enjoying the finished product, but that's true for just about any creative industry.
And how terrible is a 48-hour coding marathon, really, if it gives you a chance to get your game on people's iPhones, to get a little bit closer to joining the industry that makes the things you love?
"This is what I want to do," says Jerome Pamintuan, a 24-year-old video game design student at triOS and member of team Bombard.

DragonByte By Danzor looks sweet!
I prefer the light blue one, easier on the eyes and has some color. Although I would contrast the menu items a little more from the background color. I'm using it as my default now. =)
I just realized its missing the "Customer Area" link, switched back to the old default for now.
I prefer vb default but if your twisting my arm it would have to be DragonByte By Danzor!

MediaWorks settlement postponed
MediaWorks settlement postponed
30 September 2013
Brendon Gibson of financial advisory firm KordaMentha advises that the settlement of the sale of MediaWorks NZ Limited (in receivership) to MediaWorks Holdings Limited (MWHL) has been postponed.
"Settlement had originally been planned for 30 September. However, a small number of complex commercial arrangements are still being negotiated with suppliers. This is not uncommon in a complex transaction of this nature, so this delay is unsurprising.
"The majority of conditions in the Sale and Purchase Agreement have now been satisfied. We are very pleased with the progress being made and anticipate settlement will occur within weeks," Mr Gibson said.

Our aim is to support everyone's unique potential to become responsible members of their communities. We hope our website will answer some of your questions about your children's education.
If you have further questions, please don't hesistate to contact us!
What nationality are you?
I am British. But I was born in Russia. I spent several years as a refugee in the Middle East and Europe before settling in Great Britain and becoming a British citizen.
Why did you become a teacher?
I became a teacher because of the ability to share my passion for learning with young people. I am particularly pleased that as Head of School of a small school I am still able to share this passion directly with the students through teaching sciences. I only hope that the students enjoy it as much as I do.
What are your favorite hobbies?
I love to travel and to cycle. Furthermore, I enjoy collecting lasers. I always have been fascinated by the special quality of laser light since going to an exhibition of holograms in London in 1979. I probably have one of Europe's largest private collections of lasers with over 50 lasers ranging from laser pointers to large industrial machines.
What is your favourite IB learner profile and why?
Principled. Knowing what is right and wrong and being prepared to stand up and speak your mind is so important in today's world.

One Tiny Hand Is All It Takes To Change The World
Well, that's all it takes to change my world, at least. The Tumblr blog, One Tiny Hand, is one tiny step for hands, one giant leap for mankind. Amelia alerted me to its existence this morning and I feel like Neil Armstrong when he first set foot on the moon. It's a whole new universe. One Tiny Hand features famous people with, well, one tiny hand. The photoshop work is so exquisite and masterful. The images so … arresting. I can't look away. I particularly enjoy this image of Kim Kardashian tucking her hair behind her ear with her tiny hand. Delightful. Click through to see a few more of my favorite tiny hand masterpieces.

Use scale knowledge to progress from the 7 "inside" (diatonic) intervals to the more tricky "outside" (chromatic) ones.
If you have followed my tip 2 advice on scales, this next step about intervals, especially the "inside" ones, should be like greeting an old friend.
What is an interval? The distance between 2 notes (pitches). When played simultaneously (vertically), they are called a harmonic interval and when played successively (horizontally) they are melodic intervals.
So what are "inside" intervals? Simply all the distances between the first note and all the others of a major scale. In the case of C-major:
|C - D = Major Second
|C - E = Major Third
|C - F = Perfect Fourth
|C - G = Perfect Fifth
|C - A = Major Sixth
|C - B = Major Seventh
|C - C = Perfect Octave
All inside the (C) major scale (no flats, sharps or natural signs added)
Since I am advocating that you don't worry too much about key signatures and notation at this learning stage, pick a comfortable note in the low end of your register and sing a major scale. Now start jumping:
It is possible that you may have trouble staying in pitch when the jumps get wider, therefore use the scale as an assistant till you can hit each jump dead center, like this:
Say you're having trouble singing a sixth from first to sixth note, sing the first note, sing (out loud) up the scale to the sixth note a few times, then do the jump:
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 / breath / 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 / breath / 1 - 6
The next step after this: Sing the first note, then "sing" the in between scale notes in your mind only (no sound), sing the sixth note (or whatever) out loud:
1 - x - x - x - x - 6 / breath / 1 - x - x -x - x - 6 / breath / 1 - 6
Now check with a keyboard especially if you're doing this by yourself. Have you sung 1 and 6 in tune?
With some practice you will be able to center those 7 Intervals like a champ.
What (chromatic) notes are missing between first and eighth note of the diatonic (inside) scale? Well simple:
Sharp 1 or flat 2
Sharp 2 or flat 3
Sharp 4 or flat 5
Sharp 5 or flat 6
Sharp 6 or flat 7
This is a simplistic way of looking at outside intervals and I'll get into trouble if I don't explain all these using their proper names. Let's again use the C-major scale as an example:
Sharp 1 = C# - official name: augmented unison | Flat 2 = Db - official name: minor second
Sharp 2 = D# - official name: augmented second | Flat 3 = Eb - official name: minor third
Sharp 4 = F# - official name: augmented fourth | Flat 5 = Gb - official name: diminished fifth (also called tri-tone)
Sharp 5 = G# - official name: augmented fifth | Flat 6 = Ab - official name: minor sixth
Sharp 6 = A# - official name: augmented sixth | Flat 7 = Bb - official name: minor seventh
As you can see, all the sharpened notes are called augmented and, except the fifth, all flattened notes are called minor.
That makes it a bit easier to remember. But don't fret about the names, focus on being able to sing them.
Again use the major scale as a helper. The more imaginative you become, the quicker you'll get the hang of these "outside" intervals.
Sing: 1 - 5 (C - G), then 1 - 5 - dim5 (C - G - Gb) or
1 - 5 (C - G), then 1 - 5 - aug5 (C - G - G#) and so on.
A more in depth study on why C# & Db have 2 names in musical theory is beyond the scope of my ear training tips. There are many websites out there explaining this traditional labeling system. If you really need to know, click HERE.
With all music theory exercises: PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!
Your goal at this point should be good Relative Pitch,
Being able to take a given pitch and use it as the base
to relate other notes to it with accuracy and ease.

Watch this TV show
You may have seen the ads on ABC-TV for the new series "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution." Last Sunday they ran a preview of the series, which starts for real on Friday 3/26 at 8 PM on ABC.
I watched the preview and found it intriguing, impressive -- and daunting. He is spending time in Huntington, WV, a city with extremely high rates of obesity, diabetes, and early deaths caused by heart disease and stroke, and linked to horribly poor dietary habits and inactivity. Oliver is on a crusade to turn this town around. If you watch the show, you get a real sense of what he (and a lot of other good-intentioned people) is/are up against.
As you probably know, Michele Obama is leading an effort to reduce childhood obesity in our nation, a cause that goes hand in glove with Oliver's.
If you go to the link above to Oliver's website, you can find out more about how to join this effort.

Pama - Just found your blog and love it. I had seen a preview for this show - Oliver held up different vegetables and the children didn't know what any of them were. My mouth dropped open. Since my own kids have grown, I've gone back to school to get my MEd in Special Education. I guess I've been sheltered, but I'm learning so much about our nation's children that is so difficult to to hear.ReplyDelete
Thanks for your comment, and thanks for reading my blog. I hope you'll become a regular reader.

The Third Quote from Jill Lepore's 'The Lie Factory: How politics became a business'
"The scuttling of his health insurance plan was a confirmation for [Gov. Earl] Warren of the nature of the political process, in which advocates of programs based on humanity and common sense were pitted against selfish, vindictive special interests."
-- Earl Warren's biographer, G. Edmund White, on the defeat of the California governor's proposed 1945 health care legislation, which was demonized by the political consulting firm, Campaigns, Inc. Previously, in 1942, Campaigns, Inc. had helped elect Warren. The quotes above and below appear in Jill Lepore's excellent New Yorker article, "The Lie Factory: How politics became a business."
"In 1942, the problem with Earl Warren was that he was grim. Baxter said that, to get women to vote for him, he and his wife had to agree to have a picture of their family taken, and publicized. Warren's wife, Nina, objected. 'She didn't want to exploit her family,' Baxter said. 'But we knew that he had to get that family.' They took a picture—Earl, Nina, and their six children. They look like the Von Trapp Family Singers. Campaigns, Inc., distributed three million copies."

Studies investigating attitudes towards mental illness have tried to determine "demographic and personality characteristics of respondents, cultural factors, characteristics of the mentally ill and their behaviour etc." (Norman & Malla 1983, p.45) which influence attitudes towards the mentally ill. This research has provided the basis for the design of education programmes aimed at improving attitudes towards the mentally ill in various settings with the effectiveness of such programmes being able to be determined by longitudinal studies which measure changes in community attitudes towards the mentally ill. Preferred social distance to the mentally ill is one way in which attitudes towards mental illness are expressed.
Norman and Malla (1983) investigated adolescents' component attitudes to mental illness and found social distance to be positively related to variables perception of mental illness and belief in medical treatment and negatively related to variables prognosis and belief in psychosocial treatment. Further, Norman and Malla (1983) found that adolescent females prefer less social distance to the mentally ill than adolescent males.
These findings are contrasted by Trute, Tefft and Segall (1989) who found attitudes regarding personal contact (preferred social distance) negatively related to overall experience of mental illness and positively related to perception of relative dangerousness and age. Regarding perception of relative dangerousness, some studies have shown paranoid schizophrenics to be among those least accepted in the community (Arkar & Eker 1992; McPherson & Cocks 1983).
Previous research on the question of what factors contribute to attitudes towards the mentally ill and, in particular, preferred social distance has been inadequate in that individual studies appear not to have captured all relevant variables. For instance, it is unclear from the above findings whether preferred social distance can be attributed to the variables identified by Norman and Malla (1983) or those identified by Trute, Tefft and Segall (1989) as questions arose as to whether adults' attitudes towards mental illness would differ from those of adolescents in the Norman and Malla (1983) study and whether differences in preferred social distance and belief that the mentally ill can return to normal can be attributed to gender or type of experience of mental illness.
By repeating Norman and Malla's (1983) measurement of the components of attitudes towards a paranoid schizophrenic (described in a vignette), on adult subjects and combining it with the measurement of subjects' experience of mental illness, a clearer picture may emerge on these questions.
It was hypothesised that
(1) the more a person is judged to be mentally ill the greater will be the preferred
social distance to that person;
(2) gender differences in attitudes to mental illness will be evident in that:
(a) females will prefer lower social distance to the mentally ill than males;
(b) females will have a greater belief that the mentally ill can return to
normal (believed prognosis) than males;
(3) persons with high experience of mental illness will prefer lower social distance
to the mentally ill than those with low experience of mental illness.

Studies have shown that feedback can improve illusion task performance (Brosvic, Farrelly, Rebele, Ribardo, Gutowski, Kafer, & Dihoff, 1993; Brosvic, Farrelly, Risser, Shander, Clayton, Sypek, Kafer, & Dihoff, 1993; Brosvic, Rowe-Boyer, & Dihoff, 1991; Rowe-Boyer & Brosvic, 1990; Winer, Cottrell, & Weinbaum, 1993). Rowe-Boyer and Brosvic (1990) identified feedback as the "most effective factor in correcting" (p. 575) "inaccurate judgmental and routine problem-solving strategies that are active during the estimation process" (p. 575) with regard to the Horizontal-Vertical illusion, a statement also supported by Brosvic and Cohen (1988) who found that intertrial feedback specifying the direction and magnitude of illusion significantly increased accuracy and decreased variability of estimations compared with those in the control condition.
Research indicates that different types of feedback reduce the magnitude of illusion to varying degrees. The roles of motor and visual feedback in the Müller-Lyer and Horizontal-Vertical illusions have been investigated by Brosvic, Farrelly, Rebele, Ribardo, Gutowski, Kafer, and Dihoff (1993) who found that in the Horizontal-Vertical illusion motor feedback on its own contributed to the illusion decrement by 27% compared to visual feedback by 38%, whereas in the Müller-Lyer illusion motor feedback on its own contributed to the illusion decrement by 17% compared to visual feedback by 45%.
The question arose whether or not verbal feedback would reduce the magnitude of these illusions and in this experiment it was hypothesised that the magnitude of the Müller-Lyer illusion would be less for people who received verbal feedback than for those who received no feedback.

You're right that it can't hurt. However, the code should work fine
without doing this. However, it would certainly help the issue at hand if
we knew that these were messages that didn't occur if you ran htmerge on
just the database and *did* occur if you ran htmerge after merging.

Course on Wood Anatomy in Arctic and Alpine Environments
at Klosters Dorf, Switzerland (19. – 25. August 2012)
The effect of global warming on arctic and alpine environments is more and more in focus of plant science and especially of dendrochronology. Since the anatomical structure of arctic and alpine plants as well as their structural variability caused by environmental changes is not well known, we decided to offer this course to set a base line for future anatomical and dendroecological studies beyond forests.
Based on pre-prepared permanent microscopic slides (one complete set for each participant) we will teach basic wood-anatomical knowledge. The main focus is set on trees, shrubs, dwarf shrubs and herbs growing in the boreal and arctic, as well as in the subalpine and alpine zone of the northern Hemisphere.
On several excursions in the alpine and subalpine zone of the Alps (near Davos) we discuss sampling strategies to solve problems in relation to climatology, ecology and changes of vegetation zones.
Each participant will learn and practice simple and effective techniques for preparing high quality permanent micro sections in a fully equipped laboratory (microscopes, microtoms, chemicals).
Further details about this new course are available at:
Via email to: email@example.com
Max. number of participants: 19
Acceptance of participation will be done on a first come, first serve basis!
(Deadline for registration: May 31st, 2012)
The course is organized by:
Fritz H. Schweingruber, Holger Gärtner and Martin Hallinger
Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Great. Let's hope this works.
Tell me what happened today with Dr. M and Dr. S....
Let me post it..
I do wish you the best. From a distance, I am still rooting for you.
I've read this through.
He has given you a very honest answer.
Dr. S, gets more weird by the sessions. I think he has a bit of "Flight of Idea's" going on. Sometimes he says things that really make sense. Other times, I find it difficult to follow and many of his thoughts seem highly speculative at best. I discussed with him Dr. M and the fact that he refused to take me back. He suggested that that was "abandoning" on his part. I just blame myself, honestly.
That letter hurt!
Tell me what words or parts hurt you
I really thought he'd take me back. It was not the reply I expected. But why not? I was VERY honest. I told him he was negligent, that he let me get sick and didn't do anything about it. I told him he left me feeling empty, that we didn't connect. That my husband thought he was unethical. Why on earth would he take me back? He shouldn't!
But here I am, devastated, nonetheless.
I blame myself. You will say I shouldn't. It doesn't matter what you say because had I not said all those things, I'd have a standing appointment right now. I probably wouldn't be helped and I'd likely be in a worst place. Confusing, right? Tell me about it. But it irrelevant now, seeing him is off the table.
Yes..you are right...I would say you should not blame yourself. That he has some responsibility here and that there were 2 people in this dance.
Yes...you should always tell the truth. If you had not been honest..you would have been in a false relationship and where would that have gotten you? No where.
So...yes...the botXXXXX XXXXXne is that he is off the table and that you can:
revisit the folks you have already interviewed and seen
I feel sickly sad, Dr. Levang.
take a look at who else might be a match
Yes...sickly sad...that's a good description...
Unfortunate...but apt.
I wish I could stop crying, but I can't. I feel a loss.
And what do you think that loss is?
I feel like I lost and disappointed a friend.
Okay. I agree that there is loss here...
Why do you think you disappointed Dr. M?
This is not the journey that I envisioned taking when I began therapy. I never thought I'd feel a connection to someone who was so right and so wrong for me and I never expected to feel this level of rejection and resistance in finding someone new.
I think I disappointed him by being so hard core about what I wanted.
It's just crappy to be me right now.
I agree that this has not been the journey you would have wanted to take..or even envisioned.
Dr. M did not reject YOU. He rejected the therapeutic process...he decided he could not commit to therapy.
I don't see how you could have disappointed him by knowing what you wanted and needed.
I guess it's hard to understand.
I think you need to take "you" out of the situation and look at this as about a process...and his saying No to that process.
A process that involves two human beings, both with emotions, him being the "leader" of this two man team, and he just decides that he's abondoning his agreed upon role. I don't want to be with someone who doesn't want me, but I'm still hurt by it, regardless of the logistic reasoning.
And absolutely when you see this as a 2 person team...and one backs out...then it is crushing and sad and disappointing and hurtful...and maddening and confusing and so forth.
And yes...your feelings are your feelings and no one - including me - has any business negating those or challenging them.
I just want to grieve the loss. I don't know why I care so much but I do.
I'm sensitive I guess. It's who I am. Dr. S told me at my appt. that there is one thing that is lacking in my personality.
Can you guess what it is?
No... I can't imagine what he is talking about...self-regulation?
No. Anger.
I'm never angry.
I'm sad. But I can't even tell you the last time I felt anger. But it's probably been years.
And why do you think that is
I just don't think it's an emotion that has ever felt productive. I never felt like it was going to serve me, so I've just never been angry.
And did he suggest that you need to get in touch with anger?
And I've had so much horrible crap happen in my life, that most people have never gone through and all I think about is "Tanya, you're a 35 year old wife and mother. It's time to put your big girl pants on and move on!"
He just said that I should be angry.
And the "should" was about what?
About my past, I guess.
And what do you think about that idea...that you should be angry about your past?
I think I probably should, but what does that get me? Nothing.
What do you think you should be angry at?
Do you want me to go into details?
No...but I just wanted to know if YOU think you should be angry...versus someone telling you you should...
As you say...what would it get you? and it's not an emotion you have felt practical or useful for you...
I don't think you ought to be talked into something ....
Yes, I think I should probably be angry. But it's not an emotion that flows out of me easily. I don't think it serves any purpose to my healing in therapy and it's just not who I am.
So as far as I'm concerned, Yes, he made a valid observation, but I don't think it's an "ah-ha, get angry and you'll be fine" sort of thing.
Anger is a valid emotion and there would certainly seem justification in your life story to be angry. And...I agree...it is not likely the end all be all for you...
And certainly it may just rise up naturally in the course of therapy...and that might be for the best.
Maybe. But I'm soooooooo far from that right now.
I don't even know what therapy looks like or feels like.
What I do know, is that what happened today feels like a set-back and I have to work harder to stand back up again.
This has become mission impossible.
I just don't even know where to turn at this point. Every option feels like way more effort that I can give right now.
How was the session with Dr. S?
What about the new psychologist you found at the women's center?
I didn't call them.
I was waiting to hear back from Dr. M, and then I had to go for my appt. with Dr. S.
He's just to weird for me.
He's all over the place with his ideas like he's schizophrenic or something. And he has a stutter and its hard to understand him. Or I find that I finish his sentences.
It's just not someone I can see sticking with long term.
He's is nice enough, but he's a "No".
Maybe this guy? Some people in this practice participate with my insurance. He doesn't. I don't care anymore.
I'm just seriously confused.
Let me look at him...be right back...
Not someone I would recommend....
Why not?
too process oriented and not focused enough on solutions...
I guess I'm not looking at the right "qualifications". Oy vey, this is just impossible. :(
I'm done looking.
I'm done going.
I'm not doing this anymore.
Me: "Hey Doc, it really hurts when I keep going to see these therapists that don't work out" Doc: "Than stop doing that!".
When I read through biographies, I am focusing on what skills and abilities they bring to the table that will match with the presenting issues from the client.
Ok, you know what you are looking for. Obviously, I don't.
In your case, he is highly focused on the process of therapy. That is well and good for someone who has tons of time and wants to examine the details of their life. That's not you.
You need someone to focus on solutions right now and to bring relief.
When I read that biography I did not see symptom relief...
I don't think I'm ever going to get that. I've resolved myself to looking at this bird cage I'm in and calling this "home".
Yes...you are going to get that.
But I do think that Dr. M was right in saying that you can't focus on liking the therapist...that it has to be about that possibility of trust and about someone with the right skills and abilities..and...the schedule to meet your needs.
But liking someone is important to me.
I understand the fatigue you are experiencing with this therapist shopping. It is an exhausting process...I really can't imagine how you have withstood this...
Yes...I understand that...but it can not be the first thing - or only thing - to focus on. It has to be about the trust...the liking can come later.
In my experience, the liking means that people stay in therapy with someone they "like" but who isn't competent enough or isn't the best/right fit.
Liking can get in the way....
Liking is too messy.
I encourage you to rethink the people you have rejected. Instead...who had the skills and abilities...
I understand what you are saying, but I'm not going back to any of the people I've seen. They are not the ones.
It seems that Dr. S is out...Dr. I did not have time...Dr. K? not sure where he stands...you seem to say that he gave you a hard time about Dr.M and that bothered you.
Okay...fine then don't go back to any of them.
Why don't we do this..you come up with a list of people...give me the internet addresses. I will look them over and give my comments. I would be willing to be helpful in that way. If you don't want that kind of help from me...that's fine. I am just making an offer.
It's a thoughtful offer, thank you.
Thanks for spending time with me tonight. I really feel like I need to take a couple of weeks off and come back to this with a clearer head. Right now, my emotions have the best of me.
That's fine Tanya. I am here for you.
I know.
Thank you for that.
If you would like me to review some possible therapists...just let me know. Otherwise...yes...let the therapy piece alone for awhile. Let the medication get up and going...
You are very welcome Tanya.
Ok, thank you.
I can't tell you enough how truly sorry I am and how frustrating this is on my end as well.
I'll say good night now.
I appreciate that. You have been the one consistent, positive, professional force in my life--you have no idea how much your advice and encouragement influences me.
My honor Tanya!
I look to you because I trust you. I wish you could do more. But I understand your limitations.
It isn't easy for you to trust and so I value that you are able to let me walk with you.
I'm staying positive...and I hope you can too...even if just a bit.
Bye for now.
Good night, Dr. Levang.
And a good night to you Tanya.
Don't say no.
He called me. He's not back in the office until 9/4. On Vacation in Maine. Seems very sweet and willing to help me. He's calling me on 9/2 to schedule an appointment. He gave me his personal cell number and told me to call if I needed anything, that he didn't want me to be alone in this. For the first time, I feel like at least someone cares enough to call me back. The one month delay might just be the one thing I need to clear my head in this. What do you think?
I canceled ALL my appointments. No more with Dr. K or Dr. S. I'm "single" and "looking"! ;)
I just wanted to check in before I go to bed. Yesterday, I was really upset about Dr. M. It felt like huge loss in my life, and I didn't forsee getting over it any time soon. I went to bed last night and tossed and turned for nearly two hours. But you know what? I slept through the night. I got up this morning and I felt a little lighter than I have felt in months. I took my children to Chick-fil-a appreciation day and then to a school get together at a playground near our house. I saw many of my teacher friends and reconnected, and I started to feel better. I don't think I realized how much pressure I was under both with Dr. M and with all the interviews. I made a conscious decision to walk away, and I feel better for it. I'm riding this wave. It feels good. Let's hope I have another good night tonight.
HI Tanya,
I just came on a few minutes ago.
I will read your post and then reply.
I'll also check the psychology today.
I read the bio...looks fine. He's been in practice a lengthy time.
He appears to have gone above and beyond in making a connection with you.
Well...his bio reads well and he has worked "hard" to make you feel welcome, seen, and to be accomodating.
Those are all things that lead me to say Yes to him.
You know how I feel about the lack of phone calls!
Unfortunately, you cannot set high expectations...but reasonable expectations are in order...
Yes...and that's the frustrating point for me...
Yes...hopeful is a good place to be...not overly hopeful but "mild" hopeful...
How are you feeling about seeing the psychiatrist?
How are the meds feeling?
Great! That's wonderful news. Really wonderful....
I hear that is a very good school.
I am very happy for you....finding our passion in life is one key in our happiness!
WOW! To the med side effects leveling off.
Are you feeling any differences emotionally because of them.
It takes up to 6 weeks for the meds to fully be on board...
So...it will slowly, slowly take effect...
Just be patient...most people say that all of a sudden one day they just realize they are feeling happier...
I'm sorry about that....but you have to trust that the medication will work...and that it will prove the right choice over time...
Yes...I can understand how you lost sight of your passion....when we are in physical and emotional pain then the focus just becomes that world.
Yes to having that kind of support behind you...that is awesome, awesome!!
Waiting a month is not unreasonable....IF you are doing something in the meantime...some homework.
I think you considering going to school and working on that is a positive...
I think reading that brain book is one good thing...I would see that as homework.
I'm still thinking....
Yes....I'm just fine.
I was trying to think of some nice homework for you...
I'm sorry JustAnswer gave you that response.
I'm not sure. I'll check that out.
I'm okay...and thanks for caring.
I'm just trying to be thoughtful with you. You've had so many peope dabbling in your life...all with different viewpoints and opinions. I want to make sure that what I say is helpful and respectful and not more confusing or upsetting.
Dr. Jamieson is appealing. I do want you to heed Dr. M's thought about "liking" versus competence, commitment, and trust.
I imagined that the picture he posted struck your mothering heart...and that was part of what made him appealing.
That's perfectly fine...but I want you to be honest to yourself about that aspect so that you don't get your expectations up and then feel disappointment if that appeal is not as strong when you meet him. Do you understand my point?
On the one hand the picture is sorta a Norman Rockwell-ish sort of portrayal....and that would be appealing to many, many people. Certainly more so then a picture of Dr. S!!!
But again...it's what you said about reasonable expectations...and what I say about looking for that "possibility of trustworthiness"...
Very good Tanya!
We are on the same page here.
...look homeless...that's a good one!
Good sign...the guy has humor....
Isn't it funny how you can say a word and then the picture pops in your mind...
well...let's say...people who look like crazies...
that maybe ought to have a fashion 101 class...
scary stuff for sure...
I hear you....
Yes...bonding is another aspect of trust...
And absolutely...there is a job to be done...and it would be great to get that headed in the right direction...
I'm glad the psychiatric piece is in place and is stable...
Did you tell him about that?
That you are on medication and are being monitored by a psychiatrist...
Very good....I think you are off to a good start with him....
You've been honest and upfront and that will bode well for your first meeting with him.
And I do agree that all those interviews likely were very taxing and put enormous pressure on you. So to take a short break here...let the dust settle...get geared up to go back to school...enjoy the rest of the summer...very good.
I like that alot.
It shows he is open. He is saying...I am opening a door for you and if - or when - you feel comfortable you can come on it and sit awhile.
Yes. I would and do do that.
Yes...really. Absolutely.
I'm sorry. Truly I am.
The therapeutic relationship is not like any other kind of relationship. It is built on openness and a willingness to be seen and to see others.
Well...I want my profession to treat people well and it is a poor reflection on all of us.
He doesn't have to know you at this point. He WANTS to know you is what is important here.
If you have a crisis. If you have a question about seeing him.
Yes...I can only imagine how strange that sounds to you...
If something comes up and you feel you want his advice about...
I hesitated to use it...but it's what he is indicating....
I know you don't like that...but yet it also is a good thing...
Great. What did you find out...
You already have a cadillac program from what I understand...
That's a very good option.
Very generous...
Yes. That's true.
I would wholeheartedly agree!
Well...I'd better say goodbye Tanya.
You take care! I think you've made some very healthy new decisions...
There's that word awesome again!!!
I'm going to have a hard time getting the image of a homeless therapist out of my mind today!
Well...if you got a few extra chuckles out of it...that's a bonus!
Take care! Enjoy the day.

Standard & Poor's downgraded the credit ratings of nine euro zone countries, stripping France and Austria of their coveted triple-A status but not EU paymaster Germany, in a Black Friday 13th for the troubled single currency area.
"Today's rating actions are primarily driven by our assessment that the policy initiatives that have been taken by European policymakers in recent weeks may be insufficient to fully address ongoing systemic stresses in the eurozone," the US-based ratings agency said in a statement.
In a potentially more ominous setback, negotiations on a debt swap by private creditors seen as crucial to avert a Greek default that would rock Europe and the world economy broke up without agreement in Athens, although officials said more talks are likely next week.
If Greece cannot persuade banks and insurers to accept voluntary losses on their bond holdings, a second international rescue package for the euro zone's most heavily indebted state will unravel, raising the prospect of bankruptcy in late March, when it has to redeem €14.4 billion in maturing debt.
S&P cut the ratings of Italy, Spain, Portugal and Cyprus by two notches and the standings of France, Austria, Malta, Slovakia and Slovenia by one notch each.
The move puts highly indebted Italy on the same BBB+ level as Kazakhstan and pushes Portugal into junk status.
It put 14 euro zone states on negative outlook for a possible further downgrade, including France, Austria, and still triple-A rated Finland, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
Germany was the only country to emerge totally unscathed with its triple-A rating and a stable outlook.
French Finance Minister Francois Baroin, speaking after an emergency meeting with President Nicolas Sarkozy, played down the impact of Europe's second biggest economy being downgraded to AA+ for the first time since 1975.
"This is not a catastrophe. It's an excellent rating. But it's not good news," Baroin told France 2 television, saying the government would not respond with further austerity measures.
The euro fell by more than a cent to $US1.2650 on the news. European stocks, which had been up on the day, turned negative but reaction to the widely anticipated news was moderate. Safe-haven German 10-year bond futures rose to a new record high while the risk premium investors charge on French, Spanish, Italian and Belgian debt widened.
Euro zone finance ministers responded jointly by saying in a statement they had taken "far-reaching measures" in response to the sovereign debt crisis and were accelerating reforms towards stronger economic union.
Greek negotiators who have repeatedly voiced confidence in a deal in which private creditors would accept writedowns of 50 per cent of the face value of their bond holdings said they were now less hopeful, warning of "catastrophic consequences" for Greece and Europe if they failed.
"Yesterday we were cautious and confident. Today we are less optimistic," a source close to the Greek task force in charge of the negotiations said.
S&P said the euro zone faced stresses including tightening credit conditions, rising risk premiums for a growing number of sovereigns, simultaneous deleveraging by governments and households and weakening economic growth prospects.
It also cited political obstacles to a solution to the crisis due to "an open and prolonged dispute among European policymakers over the proper approach to address challenges".
Austerity and budget discipline alone were not sufficient to fight the debt crisis and risked becoming self-defeating, the ratings agency said.
German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble played down the news, saying: "In the past months, we've come to agree that the ratings agencies' judgments should not be overvalued."
France and Austria were at risk because of their banks' exposure to the debt of peripheral euro zone countries and Hungary respectively, as well as the weakening economic outlook for Europe. Italy and Spain face historically high borrowing costs.
The cut in France's rating is a serious setback for the centre-right Sarkozy's chances of re-election in May and could weaken the euro zone's rescue fund, reducing its ability to help countries in difficulty.
France is the second largest guarantor of the European Financial Stability Facility, which has a AAA rating. Preserving that status would require members to increase their guarantees, which could prove politically unpopular.
In their statement, the euro zone finance ministers said they would do all they could to ensure the rescue fund keeps its top rating.
After vowing for months to do everything to preserve Paris' top-notch standing, Sarkozy appeared to prepare voters last month for the loss of the prized status before the election.
His political opponents pounced on the S&P decision as a verdict on the failure of his policies.
"This is in reality a double downgrade. It is a downgrade of our sovereign rating that will affect the country's reputation, with heavy consequences, and it is also a downgrade compared to our main neighbour, Germany, with which we had equal status up to now," centrist candidate Francois Bayrou said.
France still has a top AAA rating from the other two main ratings agencies, Moody's and Fitch.
But France's AAA rating from Moody's isn't safe either with the agency warning that it is reviewing the ratings of all EU nations.
The third major rater, Fitch, this week said it had no plans to downgrade France in 2012 unless the country was hit by significant economic shocks.
"What counts more than anything is the credibility of our economic policy and our determined strategy to reduce spending. We will scrupulously honour all the engagements that we have made," Sarkozy said.
Economist Elie Cohen, research director at CNRS, said France could not expect to get the benefit of the doubt from the markets as the United States did when S&P cut its US ratings one notch from AAA to AA+ in August.
The United States, the world's biggest economy, continued to attract investors seeking the safe haven of the dollar for their money as the economy tanked, he said. "That will not be the case with France," he added.
Analyst Marc Touati at Assya Compagnie Financiere said a downgrade for France would mark "the beginning of a vicious circle".

An HIV-positive woman who has developed abnormally large breasts because of her antiretroviral (ARV) medication has undergone tests to determine the best treatment ahead, Gauteng Health MEC Ntombi Mekgwe said on Sunday.
The blood tests were done over the weekend and once the results were released a team of specialists would determine whether surgery was required, Mekgwe told Sapa in a telephone interview after visiting the woman at the Charlotte Maxeke hospital in Johannesburg.
Mekgwe said she had an "eye-opening" experience during Sunday's visit and noted that the 29-year-old woman remained postive.
"She is thanking God for surviving it.. .I had heard of women cutting breasts - through surgery - because of side effects. I never understood it fully."
This week, the woman told the Sowetan newspaper her breasts started growing rapidly in 2008 and got too heavy, making her life difficult. Her breasts had reached her knees this year..
She has been diagnosed with lipodystrophy - a known side effect of ARV treatment.
Lipodystrophy involves the loss of fat, usually in one part of the body, and its redistribution to other areas.
On Sunday, Mekgwe said people must not stop taking ARVs because of side effects like lipodystrophy.
"There is no medicine that does not have side effects."
Mekgwe said people on ARVs who developed side effects must go to hospitals.
They should also adhere strictly to their treatment.
Ultimately, when it came to HIV/AIDS, Mekgwe said: "We only pray one day that we will find a cure". - Sapa

Couples counseling usually focuses on finding shared goals for the relationship as well as understanding styles and barriers to communication. I use something called the speaker/listener technique which creates empathic listening and increases connectedness and intimacy among couples. I also believe we are a product of our upbringing and many times have dysfunctional barriers to effective communication.

Many people secretly believe that their opinion is always "right." Then they enter into a relationship and this deep-seated belief is challenged by a partner or spouse who also secretly believes that his/her opinion is always right. This causes major problems. That's where therapy comes into play. I believe that the bedrock of couples counseling is clear and effective communication. For some odd reason, it seems as though communication is a lost art, leaving couples feeling frustrated and alone. People feel as though they're not being heard and their needs aren't being met. I help couples understand each other deeply and articulate their feelings to one another effectively.

A psychodynamic approach to couples therapy is an application of psychoanalytic theory and acknowledges that the subjective structures of the individuals in a couple interact at conscious and unconscious levels. Psychoanalytically -informed couples therapy can take several different forms dependent on the particulars of the couple and each individual in the couple.

What are the most common couples' issues? If you are thinking "communication, conflict, sex, money, child rearing" you are correct. However, most therapists will go after the symptom on each side of the couple fence thinking that the way to effective change is by getting each party to "work" on their respective "issue". Many times the parties don't agree but comply. Imagine if you could align the unconscious brains of a couple and stop the "working on your issues" part that has become so popular in therapy settings?

There are countless models of healthy romantic relationships, from monogamous to polyamorous, and unique variations between partners. The scripts for dating and longterm relationships of our parents' generations may not be applicable to your relationship, and there is no formal education in how to be a good partner or how to identify unhealthy relationships. But there is psychological research that shows that effective communication, emotional openness, intimacy, and other factors contribute to healthy relationships. Creating these conditions are skills that can be learned. I practice brief humanistic and emotion-focused therapy (EFT) to help my LGBTQ and hetero clients learn these skills.

Maintaining an intimate relationship is one of the most rewarding - and one of the most challenging endeavors in life. No one can bring you more joy - or more aggravation - than your partner! I give couples valuable tools to improve their communication skills, set healthy boundaries, ask for what they need, and make choices that support their relationship rather than undermine it. Some of the problems I address in counseling are: Conflict, Communication, Trust Issues, Finances, Sex, Dealing with In-Laws, Intimacy, Infidelity, Infertility & Adoption, Power Struggles, Negotiating & Making Decisions, Balancing Time & Priorities, Creating a Shared Vision, and Premarital counseling.

Many clients say that I have a spiritual gift for counseling couples. There's nothing more gratifying than turning around a marriage that almost ended in divorce. I use "Emotionally Focused Therapy" by Sue Johnson and "Gottman Method Couples Therapy" by John and Julie Gottman. Both methods have been researched over 40 years. Now we know exactly what creates masters and disasters of marriage. Statistics show that 75-85% of marriages are saved when using these two therapies. If prior couples therapy did not work for you, I recommend you see a counselor trained in these two methods. Read my educational articles and client stories on my website: www.Flourishing-Lives.com.

We look at the issues facing their relationship; as well as the limitations each of them bring in the way they can give and receive love.

Relationships take work, commitment, sacrifice, communication, and compromise. None of this is easy! And when you and your partner don't see eye to eye or have differing values, this becomes even more stressful and frustrating. I can help facilitate open communication between you and your partner to help you understand the root of your problems, how they are negatively affecting your relationship, and how to work through and resolve them. It's a process and takes time, but worth the effort if the relationship is important to you.

In the past four calendar years, U.S. refined sugar prices have ranged from 64 to 92 percent higher than on the world market. Largely as a result of government subsidies to the sugar industry, many food and beverage companies have found it extremely difficult to obtain adequate supplies of sugar. In years past, the anti-competitive effects of sugar subsidies have forced some of these companies to reluctantly move their facilities overseas.
Small businesses have been especially hard hit due to higher sugar costs – and many "mom and pop" stores have had to lay off employees, abandon plans for expansion, or close their doors altogether. Across America, families are struggling to pay their grocery bills to put food on the table.
The U.S. sugar program has played a major role in the loss of thousands of jobs in sugar-using industries nationwide. In fact, between 1997 and 2011, nearly 127,000 jobs were lost in these industries alone.
Enough is enough. That's why a growing number of Congressional lawmakers are working to enact bipartisan, comprehensive reform of U.S. sugar policy.
But we can't do it alone. In addition to much-needed Congressional support, we need boots on the ground to fight legislative battles, thank leaders who champion our cause, and advocate for policies that promote reform of sugar policy. We deserve a reasonable policy that recognizes the importance of our U.S. sugar growers while balancing the need for a level playing field that benefits both domestic growers and sugar-using companies.
We encourage you to join us by contacting your Member of Congress, liking us on Facebook and following us on Twitter to stay updated.
The impact of sugar policy is felt everywhere, from local food manufacturers to the grocery store aisle to the kitchen table. Now is the time to make a change.
Thank you for your support,
John Downs, Jr.
Chairman, Coalition for Sugar Reform
President & CEO, National Confectioners Association

Oh, I get it now!
LOL, LOL, LOL....Lol...lol
But, I still like you girl.
Two headed shark attack son...nothing wrong with that. Brooke is the definition of butter face.
You are a hard star to please. But I like challenges.
I really would like to make a remark about this post...but, I'm sure I would be banned!
Hogan- "Burmafrd I hear you've been bad-mouthin my future son-in-law! Listen brother the Hulkster is on to you! And soon the pythons will be wrapped around you brother! It will be a leg-drop and the one-two-three!"
I guess she likes guys with short appendages arms.
I bet he can't even wrap his arm around her!
IDK man Brooke Hogan is 5'11 and probably like 170. Obviosuly Phil is a big dude, but that chick has some broad shoulders to go with that big frame. Phil would have to be a certified giant to make her look that small
Good luck brother
She kinda looks like Randy Savage to me (RIP)...
Good for them but this isn't really that big of a deal because Costa is a backup who probably won't get too many snaps this year. So this won't get much, if any media attention
Odd, out the blue type of story.
Who is Bully Ray? The instagram comments say she was supposed to marry him.
Isn't that the "achy breaky heart" guy?
No, that's someone else.
Whatcha gonna do when CostaMania runs wild on you!
I had no idea they were dating. I really don't care about these sort of things, I'm just surprised that I missed this bit of news. Usually they make it big news whenever a Cowboy dates a celeb.
Hogan's not much of a celeb, but still.....
Bully Ray is the wrestler formally known as Bubba Ray & 1 half of the WWE/ECW tag team, The Dudleys ( Dudley Boys ). He's the current TNA Heavyweight Champion & his marriage to Brooke Hogan is a storyline.

Museum of the Moving Image Presents FASHION IN FILM FESTIVAL, Now thru 5/13
From stolen pearls to a glove left at the scene of the crime, from an excess of red lipstick to the postmodern gangster silhouette, fashion and style are commonly utilized in film to glamorize and glorify criminal behavior. These images and more will be the focus of the third New York edition of the London-based Fashion in Film Festival to take place at Museum of the Moving Image from today, May 4 through May 13, 2012. Titled If Looks Could Kill, the Festival explores the compelling links between cinema, television, fashion, crime, and violence.
Tackling themes such as disguise, desire, and the corruption of beauty, the festival features a string of underworld characters and their prosecutors whose highly effective costume, styling, and sartorial gestures helped define cinematic genres from detective to thriller, gangster, film noir, and horror.
If Looks Could Kill includes screenings of ten feature films, a talk by the noted film scholar Tom Gunning about the use of invisibility and transformation by criminals in early silent films, and a panel discussion on May 12 featuring costume designers Juliet Polcsa from the HBO series The Sopranos, Lisa Padovani from the HBO series Boardwalk Empire, and Shelley Fox, Professor of Fashion at Parsons The New School for Design. In his illustrated presentation on May 5, Gunning will talk about the visual identity of early film criminals including Louis Feuillades's Irma Vep with her black bodysuit and the dapper yet sadistic Fantomas, and will also introduce a rare screening of the 1929 Belgian surrealist short The Pearl.
Highlights of the feature films include an imported 35mm print of Asphalt, a 1929 German "Strassenfilm," a pre-film noir tale about a lovely diamond thief, presented with live music by Makia Matsumara; an archival print of Frank Borzage's Desire (1936), starring Marlene Dietrich and Gary Cooper; screenings of two versions of MildrEd Pierce, the 1945 film directed by Michael Curtiz, starring Joan Crawford, and Todd Haynes's recent HBO miniseries, with Kate Winslet in the title role; and John M. Stahl's luxurious Technicolor melodrama Leave Her to Heaven (1945). Also screening are Martin Scorsese's Casino, Elio Petri's The Tenth Victim, Paul Schrader's American Gigolo, Abel Ferrara's Ms. 45, and Alfred Hitchcock's Marnie.
The New York edition of Fashion in Film Festival: If Looks Could Kill is programmed by Marketa Uhlirova, Festival Director and Research Fellow in fashion history and theory at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design; David Schwartz, Chief Curator of Museum of the Moving Image; and Christel Tsilibaris, Associate Curator of If Looks Could Kill program.
"Cinema's images of crime are both seductive and haunting," said Marketa Uhlirova. "It seems cinema has a tendency to portray criminality and evil as lethally stylish. Fashion lends crime an air of chic decadence and can perform as an immoral equivalent to crime's extreme measures."
"As always, the Fashion in Film Festival takes a wide-ranging, expansive view of film history, going from the silent era through classic Hollywood and international cinema to the present," said David Schwartz, the Museum's Chief Curator. "It provides an opportunity for audiences to see both rediscovered gems and celebrated works on the big screen. A particularly special treat is the chance to see Todd Haynes's beautiful production of MildrEd Pierce on the big screen, on Mother's Day."
Fashion in Film (fashioninfilm.com) was founded in 2005 and stages a biennial festival and year-round conference and exhibition programs exploring how the moving image represents and interprets fashion as a concept, an industry, and a cultural form. Fashion in Film is based at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, University of the Arts, London.
Museum of the Moving Image (movingimage.us) advances the understanding, enjoyment, and appreciation of the art, history, technique, and technology of film, television, and digital media.

Dir. Martin Scorsese. 1995, 178 mins. With Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, Joe Pesci. Costumes by Rita Ryack. Gangster Sam "Ace" Rothstein, Robert De Niro is seen in more than 60 different outfits during Scorsese's breathtaking epic about corruption in Sin City. The film's lavish spectacle—its flashing marquee lights, dizzying quick cuts, pulsing music soundtrack, and infinite rainbow of flamboyant costumes—reflect the characters' emotions.

The modern detective genre deals with the problem of identification in a society where identity is no longer emblazoned in outward appearances. The arrest of a criminal depends not only upon capture, but also, and even more fundamentally, on identification. Acclaimed film scholar Tom Gunning will trace early film criminals' visual identity, focusing on their acts of disappearance and transformation that owe much to the realms of magic and early trick film. Under special scrutiny will be the black costume, the body suit, and masks worn by such nemeses of the law as Fantômas and Irma Vep of the Vampire gang in popular French crime serials of the 1910s. The program includes a special screening of the short film The Pearl (Le Perle) (Dir. Henri d'Ursel, 1929, Belgium. Archival 35mm print from the Royal Belgium Film Archive). The Pearl is a Belgian Surrealist dazzler, with a pearl necklace at the center of the action. The movie stars a young group of female criminals who are secret residents in a hotel where they steal from rich guests; the film plays with disguises and multiple identities.

Dir. Joe May. 1929, 94 mins. With Betty Amann, Gustav Frölich. Costumes by Rene Hubert. Imported 35mm print, with live projection of intertitles. A pretalkie release, Asphalt is a stunning gem of expressionist cinema, and a prime example of German "Strassenfilm." Its shadowy scenes, the overt eroticism of the fatal woman and diamond thief Else, and the plot itself,in which an orderly traffic cop is caught in a web of crime and uncontrollable passion, all prefigure film noir. Yet it is in the way the story unfolds where director May shines, able to shift effortlessly from social realism to romantic melodrama and comedy.

The new bootloader is not actually locked, it's changed to use QPST (Qualcomm Product & Support Tools). As it needs a code, we can't use it.
This method flashes the B518 bootloader straight to your phone, so you will get back USB.
Apply only if you have upgraded your phone to B522 or newer. You may have a custom ROM on top, but the base has to be B522 or newer.
Tested by myself on B522, B526 & B528.
The steps required to get back pink/blue screen USB:
Automatic flashable zip is pretty much fail proof, but I have warned you.
Automatic method (recommended):
- Download update-B518-bootloader.zip from MediaFire.
- Save it to the root of your SD Card.
- Start the phone in recovery mode (recommended recovery is 188.8.131.52)
- Select "install zip from sdcard"
- Select "chooze zip from sdcard"
- Select the zip you downloaded before.
- Select yes.
- Reboot and enjoy!
Manual method (not recommended):
- Download the bootloader.bin (B518) from MediaFire.
- Copy it to the root of your SD card.
- Use a Terminal Emulator if on phone or start ADB and write in "adb shell".
- Write in "su" to get root rights.
- Write in "dd if=/sdcard/bootloader.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3" to copy the bootloader.bin from SD card to the bootloader partition.
- All done!
Protip: When using Linux distribution, pink screen mounts your internal SD card, data, cache and system partitions. This happens because Windows does not mount extX partitions by default.
I suggest everyone to do this as long as you have rooted your phone and want to flash custom ROMs/kernels.
Now you can recreate your backups with this tutorial.
Special thanks to dancer_69, who sent me B518 bootloader.
