'O'Neill Experience' online campaign follows Seb Toots, David Wise and others during X Games week in Colorado, January 24-27
Montreal, Canada (January 15, 2013) – O'Neill, the original surf, snow and youth lifestyle brand for over 60 years, will head back to Aspen, Colorado for X Games Aspen 2013 with snow stars Sebastian Toutant ("Seb Toots"), David Wise, Maxence Parrot, Celia Miller, Aspen Spora and other team riders.
In addition to taking part in all the competition and activities associated with the Games, the team will be shooting the popular "O'Neill Experience" online and social media campaign. Located at www.oneillexperience.com, this third installment of the O'Neill Experience will offer additional behind-the-scenes video and photo content from on and off the slopes.
Gold medal favorites Seb Toots and David Wise will kick off the campaign, chronicling their journeys from home and time spent with family and friends while in Aspen. The O'Neill cameras will also follow Seb and David to competitions, practice, media appearances, nightly industry parties and downtime with other athletes on and around Buttermilk Mountain, home of X Games Aspen action. Seb will be competing in SlopeStyle and Big Air, while David is aiming to repeat his gold medal in Ski SuperPipe.
All content will be updated live via www.oneillexperience.com, along with O'Neill Snow's Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other partnering blog sites. In addition, the exclusive content at www.oneillexperience.com will include up-and-coming star snowboarder, Quebec's Maxence Parrot, and Lake Tahoe resident, Aspen Spora, who competed in the ski SuperPipe as an 11 year old last year, with a highlight video receiving more than 135,000 YouTube views to date. Other O'Neill athletes appearing in Aspen include snowboard favorite Celia Miller from Breckenridge, CO and members of the O'Neill United program, flow team riders who have received increased exposure this season thanks to O'Neill social media support.
"Last year's O'Neill Experience at X Games was such a success with Seb, we decided to expand the behind-the-scenes access with our athlete team and offer more for fans in 2013," said O'Neill Snow's Juliet Korver. "We'll have daily athlete interaction through social media, special videos, interviews and point-of-view footage from the mountain that you can't see anywhere else."
During the O'Neill Experience, fans will be given the chance to win exclusive O'Neill gear, including hats, tees and even athlete signature outerwear, which will be hidden in an undisclosed location within Aspen, with clues offered on O'Neill social media platforms daily through X Games Aspen week. Winning fans will receive personal congratulatory messages from O'Neill athletes during the daily O'Neill Experience videos.
"I had a blast at last year's X Games and can't wait to share the experience with other O'Neill riders," said Toutant, who will be wearing his signature O'Neill apparel during the campaign. "My fans, family and friends really enjoyed seeing how I balanced my time between having fun and focusing on the competition. We have lots of cool activities planned for this year and the cameras will be rolling, so the O'Neill Experience will be even bigger this time around."
Highlights from the O'Neill Experience at X Games Aspen 2012 included Seb prepping for competition in the athlete lounge, dog sledding with family on a day off, David Wise celebrating his surprise gold medal and Aspen Spora enjoying the X Games experience for the first time. A second version of the O'Neill Experience took place last summer in Whistler, BC, where the entire O'Neill athlete team came together for a week of boarding, skiing, paintball, cookouts and outdoor bonding with Camp of Champions attendees.

About O'Neill
O'Neill, the original California surf, snow and youth lifestyle brand, was founded in 1952 when a young man named Jack O'Neill took his unstoppable passion for surfing and used it to beat Mother Nature at her own game. Pioneering the world's first neoprene wetsuit, Jack had successfully found a way to extend his surf sessions in the bone-chilling breaks of Northern California. He opened up the garage doors to his first surf shop in Santa Cruz soon after.
While many things have changed since those humble beginnings, Jack's initial vision of producing functional and innovative boardriding products continues to lie at the core of everything the company does. O'Neill's core values – innovation in style and technology – have seen the brand devote itself wholeheartedly to the evolution of the action sports lifestyle. From the first ever neoprene wetsuit and surf leash, to the world's first stitchless boardshorts and range of groundbreaking wearable electronics, O'Neill's progressive spirit will always drive the company forward.

Rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do - Unless you are in the "I love Sallu" sect
When you are sitting in a multiplex and the other 559 people in the theater are whistling away to glory at each movement of the star in the film, especially the male one, you know the film's target audience. And this was not restricted to the first few minutes of the film, it continued at regular intervals through to the end. So, the Salman-followers can stop reading here and head for the theater, it's waiting to echo with your whistles.
For the rest of us lesser-mortals, there ain't much going on there. It's the gang war routine. One kills the other kills the third and so on. And a couple of turns along the way. The story is as random, unbelievable and a crazy as one could expect. Yet, the dialogues can keep you going for a while, there are some really funny lines here and there.
Salman Khan has his style accompanied by the one-expression-says-it-all expression. Of course, slo-mo entries add to the spunk, as if there was any lacking. Then there's Ayesha Takia trying to cope with the speed of the film. I don't know what it is with her or maybe her image - she just doesn't fit in the typical masala role. Not to mention her wardrobe reminds me of the weird stuff doing the rounds in the 90s. And despite this, she does look really good over and above her warmth in some scenes. That one I'd give full credit to the extra layers of makeup.
Also the lady can't dance. I actually felt bad for her. She was hardly ever dancing WITH Salman in the same frame. The sequence cut to her doing some simple steps every once in a while. Fair enough, not every actor need to know how to do Prabhu Deva steps. But if they can, its sheer pleasure to watch them. I was in awe of Salman and the choreographer while the first song was playing. Pure delight.
Then there's the romantic thread. It has a certain quality about it, but since it doesn't go too deep, you couldn't care too much for either forming in the pair or the pair as an entity. And I guess that's not the intention either. Wanted is merry at the surface, then why would it want to go deeper?There must have been a swearing in ceremony for the cast and crew - "I swear on the XXX, I shall not take myself seriously." I think a similar clause applies when you buy your ticket. Me? Well, I'm not star-crazy, so I wouldn't understand the mania. But it was fun watching what people enjo

The Department of Educational Leadership offers two options leading to the California Preliminary Administrative Services Credential.
The MA in PK-12 Educational Leadership requires students to complete coursework required for the administrative credential plus nine additional units related to research and the completion of an action research project.
The Credential Only option is available to those who already hold a master's degree; these students are required to complete the 30 unit credential sequence.
Students are admitted in cohort groups (including both master and credential only students) each fall. Each cohort includes approximately 20-30 students, all of whom are working professionals in public or private schools or other educational settings. Credential coursework is completed over 3 semesters (Fall, Spring and Fall). Master's coursework is completed in 2 additional semesters (the Summer between Year 1 and 2, and the Spring semester of the 2nd year).
Classes are held one evening each week, and in most cases are offered off campus at educational facilities accessible via major freeways.
The Department of Educational Leadership admits students each Fall into one of two cohorts, depending on the district where students are employed. Cohorts include students in both options (MA and Credential Only). MA and Credential Only students take a common core of courses leading to the credential. MA students will complete an additional 9 units separate from the cohort classes.
Those employed in public school districts other than San Diego Unified School District, in charter schools, and private schools will be placed in the Regional Cohort. Classes in the Regional Cohort are held on Tuesday nights.
In 2010, the Department of Educational Leadership and San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) entered into a partnership for leadership development. The SDSU/SDUSD Aspiring Administrator Program offers SDUSD licensed personnel (who are nominated by their district) an opportunity to participate in a unique cohort with additional leadership development activities provided by the district. Classes in the SDUSD Cohort are held on Wednesday nights. SDUSD Cohort applicants must first be nominated by their principal. Nominations will be solicited by SDUSD's Department of Leadership Development beginning in early December.

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Welcome to the July crush. Eight wide releases will hit North American theaters during the next three sessions, including three on Friday: the superhero sequel "Hellboy II: The Golden Army," the 3-D adventure release "Journey to the Center of the Earth," and the Eddie Murphy comedy "Meet Dave."
Each targets a somewhat different prospective audience. Yet with strong competition from Will Smith's current champ "Hancock" and the Pixar smash "WALL-E," somebody's movie is going to get hurt.
It probably won't be Universal's "Hellboy," which should open at No. 1, possibly earning more than $30 million during its first three days.
Sony released the first adaptation of the "Hellboy" graphic novel series in April 2004. It opened to $23.2 million, en route to $59.6 million domestically and $99.3 million worldwide. The sequel is expected to do better business in light of the acclaim for director Guillermo del Toro's 2006 release "Pan's Labyrinth," and the tendency of sequels to outgross originals.
Produced for about $85 million, "Hellboy II" again stars Ron Perlman in the title role. Most support should come from male youngsters, who might have just rushed out to see "Hancock" but always are ready for a new action film.
The $60 million "Journey," starring Brendan Fraser, represents the weekend's strongest family-friendly entry, and should come in somewhere in the teen millions. Warner Bros. will release the New Line/Walden Media production on fewer than 1,000 3-D screens -- a low number considering that the whole point of the movie is to show it in the growing format -- with almost twice that number of conventional playdates.
Fox's "Meet Dave" -- toting production costs of almost $60 -- has potentially the broadest appeal of the new releases. Emphasis on the word "potentially." Prerelease tracking has been soft on "Dave," and its weekend haul looks likely to be limited to the high-single-digit millions.
"Hancock," meanwhile, should finish at No. 2 in its second weekend with sales of about $28 million, assuming a sales drop of 55 percent.

New fears after claim government is covering up 'clusters' of disease among airport workers
The Electronic Privacy Information Center has gone on the attack against the TSA and the Department of Homeland Security after securing a selection of government emails in a Freedom of Information request.
Executive director Marc Rotenberg told media that documents show that the government 'has not been forthcoming with the public about the true extent of radiation risk with the airport body scanners.'
He claimed union representatives at Boston's Logan airport have already discovered a 'cluster' of cancer cases among TSA workers there.
He said the Department appears to have just 'dismissed' the concerns.

Other special memorials commemorate 11 casualties buried in Abbey Wall Cemetery, La Boutillerie, whose graves were destroyed by shell fire, and six men of the Indian forces. The cemetery also contains ten German graves.The cemetery was designed by Sir Herbert Baker.

[So how is the shorter-workweek thing playing in Europe? Here are some hints -]
1/17/2001 INSEE study shows German wage rises outpace French, by Matthew Green, Reuters 14:52 01-16-01 via AOLNews.
PARIS...- A study [by Statistics France] of French and German wages showed on Tuesday that pay is rising faster in Germany.... Commentators say France's introduction of legislation to cut the working week to 35 hours from 39, which came into effect last year, allowed many companies to cap salary rises in return for shorter working hours...
[That would make sense, because a cut in hours without a commensurate cut in pay would equate to a pay raise anyway.]
...but that effect could wear off in coming years.
[Oh it definitely will. That's the whole point of cutting hours - to dynamize markets by centrifuging income and wealth.]
..\..Economists say French workers' pay demand could pose the greater inflationary risk in 2001.
[Well, since there's no centrifugation and bridging of the income gap without pay increases, if those increases per se are a kind of inflation, then there's a positive kind of inflation, a kind that centrifuges income and wealth and thereby dynamizes markets that over time, get more and more strangled by the relentless centripetal (concentrating, centralizing, consolidating) forces on income and wealth.]
...As French job creation outpaced its German neighbour...
[so the workweek cut is doing exactly what it was meant to do, despite the sneers of many conventional economists such as the editors of The Economist magazine of London]
firms are reporting greater difficulties in hiring workers from a shrinking pool of labour, raising the scope for workers to demand higher pay settlements.

text: The Searching Corpses wiki last edited by daveyd on 05/20/14 02:06PM View full history OverviewUsually corpses using this concept have to be interacted with by using an action button (varies from game to game). Most games use this concept for realism; as in real life, if you killed someone, their money and ammo wouldn't come flying out, you'd have to check them for it. Sometimes an inventory is used along with this concept, allowing the user to decide what to pick up or leave on the corpse. Often a pattern emerges in games of this type where early on in the game, players will typically loot everything they can; while later on in the game they will become more selective and choose items based on potential re-sale value or if they plan on possibly using the items or swapping items later. But for those that love to collect everything, this concept usually entails mashing on the action button on a pile of fresh corpses. As is common in more games with an inventory system, there may be some kind of limiting factor on the amount of loot a player can carry on themselves at any given time (finite amount of space in a grid system, a maximum weight the player may carry). In this situation, a player may perform a quick cost/benefit analysis to decide what to leave on the corpse. Sometimes the corpse remains until it is looted, and then disappears when empty. In other games the corpse disappears and leave an icon such as a bag indicating the dead enemy has items to loot. Due to the constant looting typically done in most MMOs, it is common to include the option to "Autoloot". This will loot all available equipment on the corpse without the user clicking on each individual one. Objects ObtainableMany kinds of very useful objects can be gained for a player by looting dead bodies. The types of loot will depend on what kind of RPG the game is. To provide some examples, in Oblivion, a more medieval type of story, some loot may be a longsword, mace, shield, or metal or leather armor. However, in a more modern or post-apocalyptic RPG, such as Fallout 3 or Borderlands, the components of a "drop" may consist of new guns, parts for a better gun, or more ammunition. Benefits of "Looting"Other than providing you with snazzy new equipment, looting can also help you to better your character. Alongside the obvious gains of stronger armor or weapons, you can also improve secondary abilities you may have. For example, in Borderlands, you can gain new enhancements which will improve your special ability depending on what class you are and what your special ability is. Also, you can obviously sell the loot and make money off of it. DownsidesRight now, you may be thinking to yourself, "How can getting better equipment have a downside?" Right? Well in the latest Bethesda made games Oblivion and Fallout 3, if someone sees you looting a body, they will either attack you or report you to the guards. So remember, next time you go to loot a body, make sure you don't have any witnesses, just in case.

The Oakland Raiders are looking to fill the void left at cornerback with the injury to DJ Hayden. With Hayden missing training camp time with a stress fracture in his foot, more opportunities are available for other cornerbacks to step forward. Two players in particular have answered the call. Chimdi Chekwa and T.J. Carrie have impressed in training camp and earned praise from head coach Dennis Allen.
"Not just today, I think he's had a good camp to this point," Allen said of Chekwa. "He did some things in the spring that we were impressed with. He's a guy that since I've gotten here he's continued to get better and better every day. He's very, very valuable to us on special teams, so if he continues to improve, I think Chimdi's a guy that can help us this year."
Chekwa is a former fourth-round pick of the Raiders who has been used as a utility man in the past. He has started two games for the Raiders as an emergency cornerback and has contributed as a rotational defensive back as well as on special teams.
Seventh-round pick T.J. Carrie also received praise from his head coach. He was thought of as a player whose best chance to make the team was as a return man. Now, he is making an impact at cornerback as well.
"We drafted him in the seventh round," Allen said of Carrie. "We thought he had some talent. We thought he had some ability, but I think he's more mature than maybe I would have known from a rookie DB coming in from Ohio. He's got a better understanding of what we're asking him to do and what the offense is trying to do to him. I think just instinctively, I've been very impressed with his knowledge of the game."
The Raiders' cornerback position is the biggest question mark on defense. The team brought in veterans Carlos Rogers and Tarell Brown to help this offseason, but will need contributions from others. If Carrie and Chekwa can continue to improve and impress, they have a chance to earn playing time and bolster the position further. They will see more reps with Hayden out so this is their time to leave a mark and they are making the most of it.
Seeing your team play in the SuperBowl is priceless. Watching the SuperBowl live in the stands for $1 per week is beyond priceless. Find out how at TicketScore.com, the future of Championship Tickets.

They're making it a series – and, wouldn't you know it, Phil Kessel is even on the scoreboard.
The Toronto Maple Leafs pulled a complete 180 from their terrible Game 1 performance in Game 2 on Saturday night, using a slew of lineup changes and some hard-fought line matching to down the Boston Bruins 4-2 and tie the series.
Leading the way for Toronto was alternate captain Joffrey Lupul, who netted the Leafs first two goals and was a force playing on a previously unseen trio with Tyler Bozak and previous healthy scratch Matt Frattin.
Now the underdog Leafs head back home for their first playoff games at the Air Canada Centre since 2004 having grabbed home-ice advantage in the series.
"It'll be pretty crazy," Lupul said. "It's been nine years, and us coming back [with the series at] 1-1, I'm getting chills thinking about it already. I'm sure it'll be an unbelievable atmosphere."
While Lupul was the game's obvious first star, the fascinating side plot of the night was the matchup between Bruins captain Zdeno Chara and Kessel, an ex-Bruin who has been absolutely dominated by his former team since joining the Leafs in 2009.
Leafs coach Randy Carlyle ended up winning the coaching duel as he successfully used Frattin as a bit of a decoy on the first line and shuffled Kessel all over the place to escape him having to skate down Chara's wing.
Chara and Kessel played one another to a draw for much of the game, but Carlyle's work finally paid off to open the third period with the Leafs already up 2-1, as Bruins coach Claude Julien dealt Chara a rare shift away from Kessel to open the period.
As soon as Chara returned to the bench, Kessel jumped on, setting up some heroics on what became the game's winning goal.
Moments later, Nazem Kadri flipped a pinpoint long pass up the middle of the ice to send Kessel on a breakaway, and he deftly slipped the puck between Bruins netminder Tuukka Rask's pads to give his team a two-goal lead.
The highlight reel play was Kessel's first ever even strength marker and only his fourth goal in 24 games against his former team, and it held up as the decisive goal after the Bruins came storming back looking for the equalizer late in the game.
The Leafs bench, meanwhile, erupted after it went in, with high fives all around in celebration of their quiet leading scorer finally breaking his goose egg against his former team.
"I think I celebrated harder than he did on the bench," Frattin said. "It was good for him – that was a huge goal for us."
"I was happy, obviously," Kessel said. "It's been a long time versus those guys, but like I said, I got lucky."
Overall, this was the Leafs best game in at least two or three weeks and one of their better efforts on the season.
After being dominated 40-20 on the shot clock and 71-33 in shot attempts in Game 1, Toronto was downed only 41-32 in shots and 72-57 in attempts on the night in a much better showing than most of their recent outings.
"We worked hard and we competed and got a few breaks that went our way," Carlyle said, crediting the victory to moving the puck more effectively than Game 1 rather than his line matchups. "We know we're in for a Bruins club that is going to force you to play the game up the walls. You're going to have to earn everything you get."
Meanwhile, three of the four Leafs that Carlyle added to the lineup – Jake Gardiner, Frattin and Ryan Hamilton, who all made their NHL playoff debut – were a huge part of that positive shift, with the trio of key cogs from the Toronto Marlies deep playoff run a year ago bringing plenty of enthusiasm to the proceedings.
Gardiner, in particular, was a welcome addition, helping the Leafs breakout substantially despite a couple glaring turnovers at various points in the game.
Playing on a pairing with another newcomer in Ryan O'Byrne, he gave the Leafs a solid 18 minutes in his first game in more than two weeks and even picked up his first postseason point with some good maneuvering and an assist on Lupul's first goal on the power play.
That marker tied things at 1-1 after Nathan Horton had opened the game's scoring two minutes into the second period, crashing the crease and putting a rebound off his skate and in.
The short-lived Bruins lead led into what was an extremely entertaining, back-and-forth middle frame where the Leafs hit the post several times and jumped ahead on the back of two Lupul goals in the span of less than seven minutes.
Then came Kessel's goal 53 seconds into the third, followed by plenty of Boston pressure that paid off with defenceman Johnny Boychuk putting a high shot through plenty of traffic for his second of the series with 10:35 to play.
But with the Bruins dominating the play late, Leafs netminder James Reimer held down the fort and James van Riemsdyk scored a brilliant insurance marker with three minutes to play to give the Leafs their first playoff win since April 30 of 2004.
Game 3 goes on Monday night in Toronto, where the only NHL city that has been waiting nine years for postseason hockey will be set to explode come puck drop at 7 p.m.
"We think it's a great thing for our city," Carlyle said. "But we've got a job to do and we've got to focus… We have to stay focused on what we can control and we have to prepare ourselves to play a better club on Monday. I guarantee you they will be better than they were tonight."
"It's one game," Frattin said. "It's just like their first game. They got a win. We've got a win. Now it's a best of five – we've just got to take it like that."Report Typo/Error

Q:I am a computer engineer holding BTech and MTech degrees. I have just finished a research project in Australia. I would like to come back to Calcutta and try for some job there. Please guide me in my endeavours.
A:Getting a suitable job in Calcutta should not pose a problem since you are highly qualified. You could post your resume on leading websites, network through friends and relatives to get in touch with relevant companies and also contact some leading placement companies for help in getting a suitable job.
Q:I did my MA (English) and appeared for BEd final exam from Calcutta University. I have a flare for IT but with my qualifications, my prospects in the IT industry are not good. I had studied science in my higher secondary. Will it be better if I do an MSc in IT or an MCA through correspondence, or study in IGNOU' Or, will it be better if I do an MBA in IT and systems in a regular course'
Name withheld
A:It is always preferable to enrol for a full-time course than to obtain a degree through distance learning. In a full-time course, the faculty and peer interaction as well as the learning inputs are qualitatively and quantitatively of a superior nature. So it is better to join a reputed educational institution that will meet your requirements. You should always choose your subject of specialisation based on your interest rather than guess what will enhance your career later. Because if you are not passionate about the work you do then it will become a chore and I see that as a recipe for disaster, not career progression.
Q:I am 35 years old and have an MSc in economics (below 50 per cent) and a BEd from Vidyasagar University, Midnapore. I have been unsuccessful in competitive exams for government service and now give private tuition to students. I am computer literate but not very fluent in English. I have realised that I am not good at sales or marketing jobs either. Please advise me on how I can better myself in such a situation.
Swapan Kumar Maiti, Hooghly
A:You could look for a job in the BPO industry. But before that you will need to become fluent in English. It would be better still if you joined a training institute for a BPO career. There are many such institutes catering to the needs of candidates who aspire for a career in BPOs. You could also study further, get a UGC scholarship, for which you will need to write a test and opt for research. After successfully completing your doctorate you could teach in a college or a university.
Q:I am a commerce graduate. I have passed my CA final exam recently. Hopefully, I will clear the Gr ' I in November. People have advised me to do management courses or some sort of IT courses to enhance my resume. I can't join a full-time MBA or IT course because I will soon have to start working. What sort of IT course should I go for' Will it help me if I do correspondence management courses'
Ashutosh Mallick, Howrah
A:I think being a CA is enough to establish your credentials. You don't need to get another degree straightaway. Start working in a good, reputed business house and then after a couple of years review your career requirements. If you feel getting an MBA will enhance your career at that point, sure, go ahead and work for it. Right now, it is time to get work experience.
Q:I am a 24-year-old BCom graduate and I've done a certificate course in financial accounting in computers. I have completed an engineering diploma in surveyor trade from ITI Howrah. I have some knowledge of Auto Cad. I am unemployed because I am yet to decide which career would be better for me.
Prabhat Kumar Prasad, Hooghly
A: I am not at all surprised that you are unemployed! Little knowledge in diverse fields can become a limiting factor in life. Kindly do some introspection and decide what you are happiest doing and then specialise in that field. After that, finding a job will be a cakewalk!

Regional Reviews: Seattle
76 Trombones Still Pack a Wallop in
Also see David's review of Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Comparisons aside, The Music Man, in its tale of a handsome, skilled huckster who ends up falling in love with the small town he is trying to swindle (as well as its skeptical spinster librarian), is an unabashed valentine to an era when (we'd at least like to think) every day was the 4th of July. Director/Choreographer Steve Tomkins (with a big nod to assistant choreographer Kathryn Van Meter) keeps the show zipping along and has a cast that is almost uniformly appealing and able.
Village veteran leading man Eric Englund makes a welcome return to Seattle area stages, looking not a day older than he did some twenty years ago in his first Village appearances. Englund's Harold Hill is dapper, smooth and yet warm-hearted, his delivery of such favorites as "Trouble," "Marian the Librarian," and of course "76 Trombones" breezily accomplished, and he handles the role's light dance requirements with ease. Beth DeVries, almost too lovely for the role of a spinster librarian, gives the production's most naturalistic, honest performance as Marian, gradually won over by Hill/Englund's charm. Vocally, her finest moments are "Goodnight My Someone," "Will I Ever Tell You," and "Till There Was You." She does as well as anyone (other than original Marian, Barbara Cook) can with "My White Knight," the show's most problematic ballad, which seems to halt the show right before the ensemble rouser "Wells Fargo Wagon" arrives to rev things up again.
In the comedy department, director Tomkins was wise to ask bombastic character comedienne Laura Kenny to reprise the role of the formidable yet soft-hearted Mayor's wife Mrs. Shinn, which she played at the 5th Avenue some years back. If possible, Kenny (whose outlandishly ornate outfits by costumer Melanie Burgess are comic characters in their own right) is even funnier in the role now, though John X. Deveney is hardly her equal in a misguided performance of Mayor Shinn which seems closer to Homer Simpson. Gail Hebert neatly side-steps dipping into too much Irish blarney to create a warm-hearted Mrs. Paroo, while little Philip Joseph Gordon is about as adorable as one could wish as little Winthrop Paroo, especially in his "Gary, Indiana" rendition. Greg Allen is sublimely comic and nimble footed as Hill's sidekick Marcellus, helping kick the "Shipoopi" production number into high gear, and Bobbi Kotula, mistress of comic larceny, is a truly comic eccentric as his gal pal Ethel Tofflemire. Special praise is indeed due to actor/singers Buddy Mahoney, Aaron Shanks, Bill Higham and Hugh Hastings who do their barbershop quartet numbers with such perfection that it's hard to believe they aren't an actual barbershop group hired for the show. Matt Wolfe does an original and amusing take on the role of Hill's adversary Charlie Cowell, and Ellen McClain offers staunch comic support at Mrs. Shinn's pick-a-little, talk-a-little lieutenant Mrs. Hix.
Scenic designer Bill Forrester has done a great work with this big show (and Julia Franz's set paintings are so vivid, at times you wonder if they aren't actual set pieces), Melanie Burgess' costumes for the large cast are colorful and characterful, and Greg Sullivan's lighting design bathes everyone in a nostalgic glow. Musical director Bruce Monroe comes through once again, making his singers shine, and his instrumentalists sound like a group twice their number.
As a happy adjunct to this production of The Music Man, actor Marks Sparks will present a fully developed workshop of his long-in-gestation, one man Robert Preston tribute Ya Got Trouble! as part of Village Theatre's Village Originals program. This project was in limbo until the late Meredith Willson's wife Rosemary gave her permission to Sparks and co-author Bob DeDea to utilize songs from The Music Man.
The Music Man runs through June 26, 2005 at Village's Francis J. Gaudette main-stage theatre, 303 Front Street in Issaquah, WA, then moves, July 8-24 to Everett Performing Arts Center, 2710 Wetmore Avenue in Everett, WA. Ya Got Trouble! plays May 26-June 12 at Village Theatre's First Stage, 120 Front Street, Issaquah, WA. For more information visit Village Theatre online at www.villagetheatre.org.

The marksman, a lance corporal in the Coldstream Guards, was 930 yards from his target when he squeezed the trigger.
See, in the war on race I am a foot soldier, not a marksman.
Besides, it was not necessary for a marksman like Murray to get so very near.
Apparently the diversion had no effect on the marksman within.
This excellent example of shooting had the effect of ringing a bell denoting the triumph of the marksman.
Silva, indeed, after the first shot, had but little to boast of as a marksman.
Fired again and missed, but the third time the bladder collapsed and sank, and my reputation as a marksman was made.
What a target for a while he would be for every marksman at any range to shoot at!
On this trip his frontier training and skill as a marksman were the means of saving a life.
"You might hit me," said Ebenezer, who knew nothing of Tom's skill as a marksman.

It was just months later in February of 2011 that Mr Achane found himself sent to Fort Jackson in South Carolina for work, believing he'd leave and come back a new dad.
Ten days after his move, however, his wife went gave birth to a premature baby and signed away their child before cutting all contact with her husband.
The adoption agency Adoption Center of Choice told the new family that Mr Achane wasn't aware of his daughter's placement with them and he would most likely contest it if he had found out.
The Tribune reports that Ms Bland had given the adoption agency Mr Achene's former address in Texas for contact, knowing full well at the time that he was not living there.

Forever in the sporting shadow of neighbours Argentina, rugby is no exception to the rule.
However, since 1999, Uruguay's results against the Pumas have improved to the degree that in 2001 they almost won their first match in 28 outings against the old enemy.
Four years ago they opened their account with victory over Spain - a minnows final of sorts.
Uruguay, one of only two sides at the tournament, along with Argentina, to field entirely home born-and-bred players, Uruguay took the spoils in an impressive 27-15 victory.
Two late breakaway tries by full-back Alfonso Cardoso and substitute Juan Mancheca sealed a victory that was never in doubt.
Unsurprisingly, back-to-back defeats against Scotland and South Africa followed, although Uruguay equipped themselves well.
Fearsome tackling against a tentative Scottish side was a hallmark of their game, and although they shipped more than 40 points, they conceded only four tries.
Five followed against South Africa, but again Uruguay emerged with credit.
They prevented South Africa from scoring for a 35-minute spell from shortly before half-time when Brendan Venter was sent off for stamping.
Prior to their debut, Uruguay was famous in rugby terms for the sensational story of 16 club players surviving a plane crash in the Andes in 1972.
The Old Christians Rugby Club were flying to Chile for a match when their plane came down in the snow-clad mountains.
While 16 people died on impact and another 13 in the ensuing 72-day ordeal, miraculously 16 survived in a story that became immortalised by the book and the film "Alive".
Following their efforts in Scotland, a football nation had a new sport to follow, and the authorities will be hoping they attract more supporters this time around.

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. – The Merrimack women's soccer team led by a goal with 17 minutes to play, but AIC rallied to tie the match on a corner kick before eventually netting the game winner a minute into double overtime, handing the Warriors a 2-1 setback on Saturday afternoon at Martone-Mejail Field.
Losing for only the third time in Northeast-10 Conference play this season, the Warriors fall to 8-4 overall with a 5-3 mark in league play. The Yellow Jackets, meanwhile, rise into second place while improving to 7-2-2 and 6-1-2 within the conference.
Both sides went scoreless in the first half before freshman Jenna Savi (Dedham, Mass.) netted her second goal of the season to hand the home side a one-goal advantage in the 66th minute.
But the visiting Yellow Jackets would even the contest eight minutes later on a corner kick. Both teams had opportunities to put the match away in the waning minutes of the second half but the game remained even at 1-1, forcing sudden-death overtime.
After both sides combined for five shot attempts in the first 10-minute overtime session, Mariah Shade ended the game 47 seconds into the second overtime period, putting home a rebounded shot on the right of the net after her initial shot was saved to clinch the win for the road team.
"That was a tough loss for us to take in a very big game for us," head coach Gabe Mejail said afterward. "Unfortunately they had a few more chances than we did and we couldn't capitalize on the ones that we did have, so we'll have to work to catch up in the league standings from here on out."
Merrimack goalkeeper Nicole Curtis (Billerica, Mass.) finished with five saves, while her counterpart Samantha Tabak recorded an identical five stops.
Savi opened the scoring at 65:51 after collecting a loose ball following a throw-in on the right side of the box and finishing on the right side of the net.
But AIC answered eight minutes later. With the weather quickly deteriorating, the Yellow Jackets were awarded a corner kick with less than 20 minutes to play. Caroline Boyce served the ball into the box before Roxy Lee-Stewart touched it into the net to tie the match at 1-1 in the 74th minute.
Despite being outshot by a 10-4 margin in the second stanza and 23-10 margin through regulation, the Warriors had chances to win it as regulation came to a close, but both teams remained tied at a goal apiece, prompting overtime.
AIC outshot Merrimack, 3-2, in the first overtime, as each keeper recorded a save each before the stanza ended. Finally, in the first minute of the second overtime session, Shade carried the ball down the right side and sent an aggressive first shot on net. Curtis came up with the first save but the rebound bounced right back to Shade, who buried it into an open net on the right side to finish up the match.
In total, the Yellow Jackets owned a 27-12 advantage in shot attempts while both teams were awarded three corner kicks apiece.
Next up, the Warriors begin a three-game road trip on Tuesday, Oct. 9, at Stonehill. First whistle is set for 3:30 p.m.

It took us from South Korea in the dead of winter – all the way to the demilitarized zone, and back to LA for final editing and animation (really cool stuff). Check out the trailer below and then go book a screening here: http://libertyinnorthkorea.org/

text: |Family as the cell of the society, its wholeness and health have great influence on the stability and development of the society. Father as an important family number, his absence has direct impact on the functions of the family. Father absence means without half of the financial support and for children it means no moral model to socialize their behavior. Recently, fathers are disappearing from the lives of their children and father absence is a more and more common phenomenon that can be found among different races in the United States. However, among those who have suffered from father absence, the African American communities are the worst hit. In fact, the father absence phenomenon has a long history. It can be traced back to the slavery and has lasted up to now. Over the last twenty years of the 20th century, it has become more and more serious.This paper intends to study the reasons for the long lasting crisis of father absence in the African American families by going through the history and present of the African American families.Chapter 1 of this paper gives a brief introduction of the historical and present research of the Negro family. Chapter 2 starts with a discussion of the definition and functions of the family, in which one can have a brief glance at the change in the American family models. Then it focuses on the fatherhood and the role of a father in the family. Chapter 3 focuses on the father absence in the African American families and its negative effect on their children. Chapter 4 explores the historical reasons for the father absence in African American families from various aspects through their living conditions under slavery. In chapter 5, the author explores the social reasons which lead to the high rate of father absence in African American families. The inferior status of black male from economical and educational discrimination and the relationship of black male and female as well as their changing attitude towards marriage and family are taken into consideration.The final part of this paper proceeds to the conclusion that the father absence crisis has a long history in African American families. The slavery cruelly deprived the black males of their rights as independent citizens and a responsible husbands and father. The present shifting of the economic structure and the racial, educational and employment discrimination make the position of the black males inferior not only to that of their white counterparts but also to that of their black female partners. In addition, the new attitude towards marriage is quite different from the one in the past. All of the elements working together are leading to the low rate of marriage and high rate of divorce and birth without the wedlock, which keeps the black males/fathers far from their families.

Sprecher Brewery in Glendale, Wisconsin, introduced a new root beer to celebrate 30 years of craft brews. Sprecher's regular root beer is also made with honey, but the limited-edition Honey root beer is made exclusively with Wisconsin honey and has no other sweeteners, and there are other differences.
"The new Honey Root Beer has the same great flavors as our original with the addition of a wild flower honey nose and flavor. I think it's awesome. We decided to create this all Wisconsin Honey Root Beer as a special 30th offering, and as a thank you to our loyal customers," Sprecher brewmaster Craig Burge told Fox 6 News in Milwaukee.

Is tailoring eco-friendly?Wednesday, February 17th, 2010
One of the things I find most satisfying about tailoring is the opportunity to create practical but aesthetic garments. The perfect combination of usefulness and artistry! And of course these days we all benefit from hi-tech scientific developments both in the processing of fabrics and in the development of new materials.
These thoughts occurred to me as I came across a whole flurry of articles linking fashion and sustainable development: 'green' fashion, fashion and the environment, 'organic' fashion even. But wait a minute, I thought… (more…)

Dierks Bentley's Father Passes Away
From our friends at Music City USA News-Dierks Bentley's father Leon Bentley died Friday (June 1st) in Phoenix at age 88. The singer-songwriter confirmed the death in a Twitter message he sent Saturday morning, noting, "It was an honor to comfort him as he left us. Thank you, fans, for the time and understanding."
"My dad's my biggest influence in country music, because my dad loved country radio, so we always drove around listening to country radio — George Strait and Hank Williams and Randy Travis and all those guys," said Dierks. "So, without him, I wouldn't be doing this, for sure."
A private memorial service is being scheduled. Because of his father's illness, Bentley had already canceled a Saturday night performance in Washington, D.C., following the Washington Nationals' baseball game. Following his father's death, he also canceled Wednesday's fan club party in Nashville during the CMA Music Festival. A spokesperson told CMT.com Saturday afternoon that Bentley currently plans to resume his performance schedule with a June 9th appearance at the WYCD Downtown Hoedown in Detroit and his June 10th set during the CMA Music Festival's nightly concert at LP Field in Nashville.
Dierks has been a good friend to us here at 97.3 the DAWG, and we are so sad for his loss.

Nice looking girl ! I understand your spacer situation now but you do know they have the hub adapters in various mm lengths such as 15, 20 and 25 ect? After seeing what happened with you I think I'll stick with e39 wheels lol... and in my previos responses I want to clarify that I didnt mean to say your car "needs" spacers in a rude way ( I was just reading it over and I think it sounded at bit out of place) I was making a suggestion based on my preferences. Your car is actually one of the nicest e39 m5s ive seen. Everything is well executed and clean. I hope you stay on this forum more often its getting a little lonely being an e39er here lol..

Kolb Brothers
DescriptionThe intrepid Kolb brothers – Emery and Ellsworth – moved to Arizona at the turn of the 20th century and established the Grand Canyon's first successful photography business. In 1911 they ran the Colorado River and brought back the first "motion pictures" of the Canyon the world had ever seen. For the next 75 years, the brothers produced a body of work that recorded the better part of a remarkable century.
This is the story of two of the luckiest, most industrious, and most intrepid brothers ever to set up shop in the great state of Arizona . Emery and Ellsworth Kolb established and ran a photography business on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon that endured and prospered from 1903 until 1976. Along the way, they produced a body of work that may well last for ages. In 1911, they ran the Colorado from Wyoming to Mexico and brought back the first motion pictures of it the world had ever seen. Emery immediately took the show on the road. He lectured in Los Angeles , then went back east. He made it onto the stage of the Carnegie music hall, and the lecture was a hit. Movies were a wonder then, and this one played to packed houses wherever it went. In Chicago , emery caught the eye of Dr. Alexander Graham Bell and his son-in-law, Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, the head of the National Geographic Society. This led to almost an entire issue of the magazine being devoted to the big trip. Ellsworth returned alone to Needles the following year, bought a boat, and caught the spring flood down to the ocean in Mexico . Later that same year, he wrote a wonderful book, which is still in print today, about the whole adventure. After the big trip, the Kolb Brothers expanded their studio and added a small theater in order to show their movie at the Canyon. Emery hung in at the studio through thick and thin, often against long odds, and helped support his entire extended family with the proceeds. Meanwhile, he photographed the world as it grew up around him. The untamed frontier that the Kolb brothers faced when they launched the big trip gradually gave way to the tenacious resolve and ingenuity of their generation. Did Emery and Ellsworth ever realize how important each had been to the other? That's hard to say. It's hard to say what pioneering traits were most responsible for the Kolb brothers' success. Was it Ellsworth's sense of adventure or Emery's feisty competence? If not for Ellsworth, Emery might never have left Pittsburgh . If not for Emery, Ellsworth might have drowned, more than once. In 1961, emery lost Ellsworth through a stroke at age 83. But Emery hung in there and kept the business going another 15 years. In 1975, at the age of 95, he talked about it in a radio interview:
Emery Kolb:
Yes, the Canyon's really been my life's work. We started showing our pictures in the studio April 15, 19 15. And so far as we can learn, it's the longest one-stand show in the world. The way the situation is now, I can live here on the edge of the Canyon in my studio and run the business as long as I live. And when I die, the contract ceases. I asked the superintendent of the park what would be done with the studio. "Oh, I'll tear it down," he said. And now there's a law where they can't tear down a building that's over 50 years old. This one is much over 50 years in the front part. This part right here is just 49 years old. So I have another year to live to hold the studio.
Emery made it, not by much. But today, decades later, Kolb's studio is well protected by the National Park Service and the National Historic Register. The studio still houses a friendly gift shop full of Canyon artwork. The theater has been converted to a space for traveling exhibits. The Kolb brothers' films and photos are still displayed. In its own way, the longest one-stand show still goes on.

Ask Health Experts and Get Answers to Your Health Question ASAP
Sorry its been so long but have been coping with a variety of issues.
My back is no better even after a course of back physiotheraphy and core muscle exercises. Scan showed only slight degeneration of spine but assured this would not cause my back symptoms. Advised to use a Tens machine but feel this is not finding out what is causing the pain.
All over body pain has worsened but i feel this may be because i will push myself until i cant go anymore. All my GP does is up meds.
Mood is pretty low and antidepressants not helping either. It seems as my pain increases so does the inflammation. Pitting odema in legs worsr and moving up legs more. Wrists and arms are swollen quiet visably now but not pitting! I now take Gabapentin 3 300mg 3x a day, codiene 2 3x daily and patch Durogesic DTrans 12mcg every 3 days. I should be pain free surely.
At 40, over weight and extremely tired of it all what can i do?

ESCONDIDO -- The Escondido Union School District will hire additional supervisors at two middle schools to address safety concerns created by growing enrollments.
School board trustees unanimously approved the new positions during a meeting Tuesday night. In other business, the board also approved a $10,000 contract with the Escondido Education COMPACT.
District officials have been discussing staffing ratios at the middle schools and a committee has formed to develop specific guidelines for how many students can be on a campus before additional personnel is needed.
Mike Caston, superintendent of the school district, said the committee will probably bring those ratios to the school board in November. In the meantime, the district recommended hiring a teacher to assume administrative duties at Rincon Middle School and a campus supervisor to monitor the grounds at Grant Middle School.
"I'm interested in having adequate staff at the schools so the schools function safely," Caston said in an interview on Monday. "We need more eyes and ears and adults on campus."
School board trustees approved the positions Tuesday without discussion. Trustees Linda Woods and Carilyn Gilbert both said that the move is justified if it meets the needs of officials at the two campuses.
The "special assignment" teacher would function as an assistant principal at Rincon and would supervise the school's 1,600 students as well as assist the principal, Caston said. Unlike a typical assistant principal, the special assignment teacher would not evaluate staff members.
The campus supervisor at Grant Middle School would monitor the school's 1,400 students and work under the direction of the school's administration.
Approximately $55,000 is slated for the special assignment teacher and $25,000 for the campus supervisor.
Caston said the positions would offer a temporary remedy for the coming school year until the committee comes forward with specific staffing guidelines. He added that the positions will probably become permanent once those guidelines are approved.
In other business, the school board unanimously agreed to spend $10,000 for services provided by the Escondido Education COMPACT. The organization serves as a link between schools and the business community.
The school district used to pay $5,000 for the organization's services, which range from bringing guest speakers into classrooms to helping students land internships with local businesses. But trustees voted in 1995 to stop paying because the services were geared more toward high school students. The organization continued to provide services after 1995 for the district at no charge.
The move essentially pays a third of the cost for a full-time COMPACT staffer who will serve as a liaison for the school district. Carolyn Starr, executive director of the Escondido Education COMPACT, said her organization will pay the rest of the staffer's $30,000 salary.
"They're getting a good deal," Starr said. "Part of the reason we're doing this is that we feel it's that critical."

Miami Food Pyramid Stresses Pork Fat and Vodka -- and Some Real Data Too
marked the official retirement of the oft-avoided USDA Food Pyramid that has been haunting sugar and grease-loving Americans since 1992.
The new symbol for portion-control divides a plate into sections based on rough estimates of how much protein, dairy, fruits, vegetables, and grains a person should consume in one day.
Since the new model is helping those who have trouble using a measuring cup, we thought we'd offer locals a straightforward guide to the foods on their plates, after the jump.
Miamians know how to eat well and keep things under control.
