Manuel and I decided it isn't worth the effort to integrate the lists
and forum, and would be extremely difficult to do in a sensible
fashion. The forum will have areas for individual topics, like
installation, NAT, firewalling, captive portal, etc. etc. For an
example, see forum.pfsense.org as it'll essentially be almost a mirror
of how that's setup. To be able to properly integrate the two, the
list messages would have to be categorized properly, amongst other
issues like flowing messages back and forth properly, etc.
Time has proven that while there may be some initial interest in
taking on something as daunting as this, that interest will wane
quickly and it'll never be properly completed. It's a difficult
project, and not worth the time it would require even if someone was
willing to undertake it. That time could be better spent improving
m0n0wall, not investing a significant amount of time putting glue
between support mechanisms.
The forum software we'll be using is SMF. phpBB was not even remotely
considered because it's a security nightmare.

Former Test fullback Gary Belcher claims Canterbury have to take a leaf out of the book of ladder-leaders South Sydney and prove to their NRL rivals they are far more than a one-man band.
The loss of star fullback Ben Barba for the next five weeks has cast doubts over the Bulldogs' ability to take any momentum into the finals, with a return to the grand final suddenly a seemingly distant goal.
Belcher admitted the loss of Barba would be a blow to the Bulldogs, but said they need look no further than the Rabbitohs' ability to cover for the game's hottest fullback - Greg Inglis.
The Rabbitohs have won three of the four games they have played without Inglis in 2013, while the Bulldogs won one and lost two when Barba was stood down by the club for the opening three rounds of the season.
"I think it shows that they're much more than a one-dimensional team, they're a much better side than we probably give them credit for," Belcher said of the Rabbitohs' ability to win without Inglis.
"When you see a standout like GI you tend to think that a side can't do it without them - it's probably a good comparison with the Dogs without Benny Barba.
"There's a lot more to the Dogs than just Ben.
"Sure he adds some wonderful polish to them and he's fabulous finisher - GI's like that with the Bunnies - but they (the Rabbitohs) showed us there's a lot more to them."
While Belcher backed the Bunnies to be a success with Inglis, statistics show that clubs with superstar fullbacks struggle mightily when their champion No.1s are not there.
Inglis, Barba, Manly's Brett Stewart, Melbourne's Billy Slater, Parramatta's Jarryd Hayne and St George Illawarra's Josh Dugan are generally considered the six standout fullbacks in the league.
Each has spent some part of the year on the sideline.
With those players in the line-up, their respective sides have won 48 of 78 games for a winning percentage of 61.5 per cent.
Without them, that winning ratio drops to 23.8 per cent.
Some of the statistics have mitigating circumstances however.
In the two games Slater has missed - both losses - the Storm have also been without Cooper Cronk and skipper Cameron Smith.
Barba's early season absence coincided with star forwards Sam Kasiano, James Graham and Frank Pritchard missing from the Bulldogs line-up.
Belcher admitted the Bulldogs were without doubt a better side with Barba in the No.1, and said it was imperative his teammates held the fort ahead of his return.
"You want to have some momentum going in to the finals, so you'd hope to get him back for a couple of games (before the finals)," Belcher said.
"Because if he's gone and they take a few steps back and just stumble into the finals, that could make it a bit tricky."

Here CBS goes again. Today, with the aid of the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearings on President Bush's Terrorist Surveillance Program, CBS's The Early Show was able to once again focus on "domestic spying." Three times in the first 9 minutes of the 7:00 half hour, there was a mention of "domestic spying."
Harry Smith led off the broadcast at 7:00 with the following tease:
Harry Smith: "Good morning, I'm Harry Smith, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales will be on the hot seat today defending President Bush's highly controversial domestic spying program at a Senate hearing, we'll have details."
At approximately 7:02, Hannah Storm introduced a segment from Thalia Assuras:
Hannah Storm: "We want to get right to our top story and that is Senate hearings on the President's controversial domestic spying program. Senators want to find out if the White House is breaking the law.
Finally at 7:08, Harry Smith introduced an interview with Senator Charles Grassley (R-IA) and Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL):
Harry Smith: "As we said, the Senate holds hearings on the President's controversial domestic spying program today."
And to reinforce the message, the graphic "Domestic Spying" was displayed on the screen. Though, to his credit, Smith seemingly conceded the point that the American people don't object to this program,
Harry Smith: "Senator Grassley, let me start with you. There are plenty of Americans wake up this morning they're thinking they want, they want the United States government to do whatever it takes to make sure that no more terrorists attack this country. Why should they care about what happens in the hearings today?"
The point that was missing, and seems to have been missing from many stories on this subject, is that there was no mention of the national security implications of the terrorist surveillance program being leaked to the press. Instead, Thalia Assuras alluded to a new report:
Thalia Assuras: "And you can bet Senators will jump on a new report that says almost all overseas wiretapped phone calls have been dismissed as having any connection to terrorists."
The key word here being "almost." But more importantly, who released the report? What other findings, if any, did the report contain? Aren't these questions that we as a viewer are entitled to have answered? Apparently not.

Jensen Ross Ackles (born March 1, 1978) is an American actor. He's was one of those actors where you can throw anything at him from an acting challenge point of view; you can shoot him, tie him up, torture him, dumb him down, make him all bloody and bruised, wring the emo from him and generally have him flung against a hard, inanimate object nearly every episode and he'll eat it up with a spoon and knock it out of the park every time.
As well as being known for modelling photos, he's also well-known for being in shows such as ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' (Dean Winchester), ''Series/DarkAngel'' (twins Ben & Alec) and ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' (Jason Teague), as well as being in movies like ''Film/{{Devour}}'' (Jake Gray) and ''Film/MyBloodyValentine3D'' (Tom Hanniger). His first big part was actually on ''Series/DaysOfOurLives'', as Eric Roman Brady (Sami's twin).
Outside of ''Supernatural'', he's been the voice of Jason Todd/Red Hood in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanUnderTheRedHood'', Gibson in the video game ''VideoGame/TronEvolution'', and Kyle Madigan in the ''VideoGame/The3rdBirthday''. In an example of WhatCouldHaveBeen, he was in talks to play Leon Kennedy in ''Film/ResidentEvilAfterlife'' before the delays and the extensive rewrites.
Despite it all, he's still considered to be the friendliest face on the set. He's often noted for taking the entire cast of ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'', even the extras, for drinks at the end of a shoot. Bang up guy.
He's married to longtime girlfriend Danneel Harris, with whom he has three kids, Justice Jay and twins Zeppelin Bram and Arrow Rhodes

As part of EMCOR's "Protect Yourself. Get Screened Today" campaign, 140+ construction workers and employees from the organizations assembled this past Saturday morning, October 2, 10:00 a.m. MT, forming themselves into the international symbol of breast cancer awareness.
University Mechanical & Engineering Contractors (UMEC) President and CEO Brad Thornton, presented an EMCOR Pink Hard Hat to Phoenix Children's Hospital (PCH) representative Debra Stevens. As part of the special ceremony UMEC employees, as well as workers from Kitchell, the general contractor working on the (PCH) project, and subcontractors also working on the project, removed their regular hard hats and replaced them with official EMCOR Pink Hard Hats in a "Call to Action" for millions of women and men to "Protect Yourself" through Breast Cancer screening.
"We are excited to be participating in this initiative," stated Brad Thornton, President and CEO of UMEC. "Our employees wear hard hats on a daily basis for personal protection, and we are proud of their commitment to wear an EMCOR Pink Hard Hat for the month of October in order to raise awareness of breast cancer and how you can protect yourself by getting screened. As a Company that has built its reputation on being actively engaged in the concerns of our industry and our community, it's gratifying to demonstrate our support for breast cancer screening and awareness - standing with our dedicated employees, clients and partners."
"Phoenix Children's Hospital has a year-round commitment to breast cancer awareness, both for our employees and our patients' families," stated Debra Stevens of Phoenix Children's Hospital. "We provide regular information about early detection and treatment and offer onsite mobile mammography. The pink ribbon is a powerful symbol of the good we can accomplish together and we are honored to help launch Breast Cancer Awareness Month alongside our construction partners EMCOR and Kitchell."
UMEC was awarded a contract for the Phoenix Children's Hospital project in 2008 and has been on-site since that time. For the 766,444 square foot, 11-story tower being built at the new hospital location, UMEC is providing the heating, ventilation and air conditioning, plumbing, steam, and medical gas systems, along with the infrastructure to provide heating and cooling to the existing hospital from the new system.
EMCOR Group, Inc. and many of its 75 subsidiaries have long been supporters of breast cancer awareness. EMCOR Pink Hard Hat events will be taking place at locations in the U.S. and UK throughout October in order to raise awareness of breast cancer and its prevention. In addition, thousands of EMCOR's field workers throughout the U.S. and UK will be wearing EMCOR Pink Hard Hats at hundreds of job sites and locations throughout the month of October.

Research Interests
Research Interests: Broadly, I am interested in understanding the defining features of personality pathology (i.e., personality disorders). In my research I examine the processes and outcomes of personality in order to clarify what distinguishes adaptive and maladaptive personality functioning. In other words, what aspects of thinking, feeling, and behaving allow some to effectively manage and have rewarding relationships and achieve their life goals, whereas others struggle so much with these basic human tasks. My research is grounded in basic personality science, which serves as integrative framework for the study of personality, its pathology, and other forms of psychopathology. More specific interests of mine include pathological narcissism and borderline personality pathology which each have considerable personal and social costs. Methodologically I am increasingly focusing on capturing the important adaptive and maladaptive features of individuals' personalities as they are expressed in life as it is lived. By using intensive repeated measurement in both naturalistic (e.g., ecological momentary assessment, daily diaries) and laboratory settings (e.g., momentary coding of interpersonal behavior) we can better capture and statistically model the dynamic processes of personality as they play out in vivo or in real time. This work seeks to (a) improve our basic understanding of the phenomena that make up personality disorders, and (b) identify clinically actionable targets for intervention.

Replay: Stanley Cup final live chatBruins, Blackhawks look for upper hand in all-important Game 3
By QMI Agency
The Boston Bruins have won 10 consecutive Game 3s.
Is No. 11 in the cards when they take to the ice at TD Garden on Monday night against the Chicago Blackhawks with the best-of-seven Stanley Cup final deadlocked at 1-1?
If you buy into history, Game 3 will give us a good indicator into which team has the best odds of going on to hoist hockey's Holy Grail. In past Stanley Cup finals that were tied 1-1, the team winning Game Three captured the Cup in 21-of-25 instances.
For all things Blackhawks-Bruins, join Sun hockey columnist Mike Zeisberger for a live chat at 7:45 p.m. EST.

Ferrari were good enough to be in position to get 1,2 so its all good really. The bigger worry is the race was a precession. Overtaking looks near impossible so qualifying is everything. 7 agree 2 disagree

Links: Results (M) | Results (W)
BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Highlighted by eight record-setting performances and eight event victories, the Merrimack College men's and women's track & field teams enjoyed one of their best meet performances in program history after a dominant afternoon at the Moravian College Invitational.
The Basics
Event: Moravian College "Coach P." Invitational
Location: Moravian College | Bethlehem, Pa.
What They Said
Head Coach Matt Pimentel: "Today we had some great performances. This was by far our best all-around team effort of the season. We are progressing very well in anticipation of the conference meet in three weeks."
How It Happened
While no team score was kept at Saturday's invitational, the fact that Merrimack claimed eight event victories, rewrote eight school records, qualified four individuals for the New England Championships in May and even boasted an NCAA Championship provisional qualifier was reason alone to celebrate, as the Warriors enjoyed one of their strongest all-around performances of the year.
Leading the way was freshman sensation Carly Muscaro (Ashland, Mass.), who continued to dominate her favorite event – the 400m dash – with a record-setting and first-place time of 52.29 seconds. That mark now stands as the third-fastest time to date in the 2014 outdoor season nationwide, as Muscaro provisionally qualified for the NCAA National Championships in the process.
The women's 4x400m relay team comprised of freshman Olivia Downey (Melrose, Mass.), junior Christine Manfra (Stoneham, Mass.), freshman Bianca Giacalone (Gloucester, Mass.), and Muscaro also claimed one of the team's eight wins with a school-record time of 3:56.32.
Also emerging victorious on the women's side were senior Briana Devereaux (Londonderry, N.H.) in the 800m (2:18.94) and junior Kelsey Grimmer (Shelton, Conn.) in the 3000m Steeplechase (11:38.42), while sophomore Kristin Schmidt (Athens, N.Y.) was edged in the 5000m to finish second (19:07.80).
On the men's side, freshman John Braga (North Reading, Mass.) made it three straight weeks with a win in the long jump after posting a final distance of 7.04m, while sophomore Taylor Jean-Gilles (Woburn, Mass.) performed admirably in the 100m dash, finishing third with a school-record and New England-qualifying time of 10.97 seconds. He also won the 200m dash in 22.34 seconds.
Finally, junior Joseph Smith (Medfield, Mass.) enjoyed his best-ever finish in the Steeplechase, placing second in 9:54.63 seconds.
Up Next
The Warriors continue the outdoor season with a local meet next weekend, as the team travels to Cambridge, Mass., to participate in the MIT Invitational.

Delaware Incorporation Costs
|The Bottom Line: State fees and the first year's Registered Agent Fee.
Delaware Intercorp charges no fee for the incorporation of your company if we act as your registered agent. We charge
no fees to create and file the formation papers and answer questions if we are to be the registered agent. Every corporation and limited liability company
created as a Delaware company is required to have a registered agent open during normal business hours in Delaware. A registered agent acts as an
intermediary between your company, and the Delaware Division of Corporations.
The first year registered agent fee ($99.00) is required to be paid in advance and we cannot process refunds for the funds we distribute on your account.
Our Online Calculator allows you to "play with the
numbers" to see how much stock at what par value you can afford.
The Delaware government fees we will distribute for you at the time of creation of your company are:
|State Filing Fee
(including other fees):
|$89.00 minimum
The prices listed above for corporations are minimums (based on a corporation with 1500 shares at no par value).
Depending upon the number of shares that you desire, and their stated par value, the State of Delaware may require a greater amount for a corporation. More
details regarding the filing fees for a corporation or limited liability company can be found on our Delaware Franchise Taxes and Filing Fees page. You may also try out various combinations of stock and par value using our online filing fee calculator
Additional pages included with your of incorporation will incur a $9.00 per page charge assessed by the State of Delaware.
You do not need to purchase a corporate kit to create a corporation or limited liability company. You probably should,
however, have printed shares, or membership certificates, and purchasing a corporate kit is an easy way to fulfill that need. We have a number of corporate
kits available.
For example, the Corpex Heavy Duty kit ($95.00) includes: a corporate seal, share certificates, index tabs, a corporate record tickler, and a share transfer ledger in a very nice slipcase binder, with the name of the company printed in gold on the spine. The kit for a corporation includes everything you will need to customize your own by-laws including meetings schedule, sample by-laws, medical plan, and minutes. You can adopt all or part of the by-laws; some really good ideas are covered.
Kits for LLC's contain similar features to the kit for a corporation, but geared towards an LLC, including a sample operating agreement (sometimes referred to as a membership agreement or Limited Liability Company agreement).
Our new Economy kit offers the same functionality in a more economical slip case binder for $65.00. Visit our corporate kit page for pictures, and a complete list of the kits we offer.
The following items are also available for an additional charge:
Employer Identification Number (EIN) - ($70.00 at formation, $100.00 afterwards) The EIN application to the IRS
(Form SS-4) is included, at no charge, with your order for a corporation or LLC. If you would like us to file the forms with the IRS and procure an EIN, we
will do so through our EIN Procurement Service. The IRS normally takes a couple of days to process an EIN application if
it is accompanied with a Social Security Number. We will require that you sign a copy of form SS-4, as well as a Third Party Designee Form, and send them to
us to keep on file. We will then secure the number with the IRS.
US Banks require an EIN to open a business bank account. Check with the banks you might consider using to see what they require.
Certificate of Good Standing - ($50.00 at formation, $85.00 afterwards) A statement, on paper, from the Delaware Secretary of State, that a company legally exists as a Delaware Corporation or Limited Liability Company, and is in good standing with the State of Delaware. This document may be required by another state or country when you register with them as a foreign company planning on doing business in their jurisdiction. A bank may also request a Certificate of Good Standing when you open a business account.
Certified Copies - ($50.00 at formation, $87.00 + $2.00 each additional page afterwards) Certified copies of certificates of incorporation (for a corporation), or of formation (for an LLC). This document may be required by another state when you register with them as a foreign company planning on doing business in their jurisdiction. A bank may also request a certified copy of the formation document when you open a business account.
Apostilles - ($80.00 at formation, $117.00 plus $2.00 each additional page afterwards when applicable) Apostillized copies of Certificates of incorporation (for a corporation), or of formation (for an LLC). This document may be required by a country when you register with them as a foreign company planning on doing business in their jurisdiction (for countries that are signatories to the Hague Convention on Legalization of Documents).
Pre-Printed Delaware minutes and by-laws - ($25.00 - Note that these are included already in all kits.) Includes meetings schedule, sample by-laws, medical plan, and minutes. You can adopt all or part of the by-laws, some really good ideas are covered.
Corporate Forms CD - ($35.00) Includes forms and sample resolutions for operation and maintenance of your company.
Fictitious Name Registration (DBA) - ($75.00) A service for filing of a Fictitious Name Certificate in any of the three (3) counties in Delaware. The overall cost for filing a Fictitious Name Certificate can vary depending on your specific needs. More details are available on our Delaware Fictitious Name Registration topic page.

Housing market trends and forecast
About this interactive graphic: Moody's Economy.com supplied the data for this interactive. Each of the five charts shows the quarterly performance of an important component of the housing market's health from first quarter 2000 through fourth quarter 2012. Data from the third quarter 2010 onward are forecasts by Moody's Economy.com. Seasonally-adjusted figures, or seasonally-adjusted annual rates, are used for each component to simplify comparisons.
Moody's Economy.com chose these five indicators because they show key trends in the residential housing market. Sales of new and existing homes and the national median price for existing homes are closely followed benchmarks of the demand for housing. Both sales and prices are also influenced by supply, represented here by the number of single-family homes available for sale and single- and multi-family housing starts. A large supply of houses puts downward pressure on prices. Foreclosures also push down prices by increasing the supply of low-priced houses on the market.
Currently high mortgage delinquencies and defaults point to a continuing high number of foreclosure sales the next few years. Moody's Economy.com supplied not only the forecasts, but also historical data back to 2000, using figures from the National Association of Realtors, the U.S. Census Bureau and credit-reporting firm Equifax.
This interactive was updated December 2010.

Awesome! Thanks a lot Travis!
Hi guys!
I just purchased on Photodune the extended license of the model of one of my flyers selling pretty well. I want to update this flyer including the model since I have now the right to do so. How should I proceed with the update? Should I include the extended license within the main zip file as a proof for the reviewer as a proof?
Could someone clear this out for me please? Thanks a lot and have a wonderful day! Lou.
What about December? 5839 Sales!!!!! Congrats again sevenstyles!
Shame on Envato 2014. The connection Envato – author isn't anymore what it was. Nobody is heard, even if a thousand of author are complaining about disturbing changes. They post and ask for feedback, but it's just to make you think that you are part of the all thing. At the end, they do whatever they want and your opinion is meaningless. There has been a moment I was so angry, I became non exclusive, built my own website, and published my work on other marketplaces. Well, it has been the best decision as I increased my earnings by 2,5. I don't feel anymore like they own my work and my time. It's a great feeling.
Great improvement! I would have prefered it placed on the right side though. But this is just my opinion.
A pretty good start with 57 sales at the end of Day 4 Let's hope it'll keep going !
Hi! I'm currently building my own shop and will have to make the step to Non Exclusive author. I read (but donot remembe where) that it takes 1 month from the moment you push the button til the change is made. Could you guys please give me a link where everything is explained?
If the experience after that is not what I expected. Will it be possible to come back exclusive? Will I get back my current rate ?
Thanks guys in advance for clarifying.
Over 2000 sales ! yay !
And the items lose value. For exemple, a flyer cost $6 including fee. Means the flyer on itself is even cheaper than before. This system devalue our items. When some had their price items increased (which at the end makes a balance with the new system ), others are just left aside, especially in print template categories.
I have no issue yet. Works like a charm

During the media call, chief executive Gordon Smith said: "It's interesting that there are so many questions.
"It has been astonishing the people saying, 'What is the point of interviewing for a manager's job?'.
"You are all asking questions, don't you think it was appropriate that we asked questions in terms of what George was going to do?"
Burley's status as the preferred candidate from a four-man shortlist had leaked earlier in the week.
The 51-year-old saw off competition from Graeme Souness, Mark McGhee and Tommy Burns after meetings with the SFA's four-man panel.
But bickering with the assembled media threatened to overshadow what should have been Burley's big moment.
SFA president George Peat opened proceedings by saying: "The board has been criticised in some quarters over the method of recruitment.
"But the same process was used in the appointment of Walter Smith and Alex McLeish and I don't think anyone would deny that these were successful.
"Some reporters said that, of our preferred candidates, several had withdrawn.
"Nobody withdrew and I would also emphasise that the decision of the selection committee was unanimous."
Smith then claimed interviewing four candidates was a better method than the Republic of Ireland's bid to find a new manager.
"Every time they identify somebody privately, it comes out and then the next person becomes second choice," he explained.
"I did say right at the very start that we would have someone in place by the end of January."
McGhee downplayed an incident on Tuesday when he thought he was being told in a live television interview that Burley had been chosen, but admitted he would have preferred to have received a call from the SFA.
However, Smith said: "He didn't find out that George got the job from Sky Sports because George didn't get the job until today.
"There were still negotiations to go on with a football club, negotiations with a contract.
"The bookies had closed bets on three other candidates at different times. Did that mean to say that came from us, where did that come from?
"I was reading things in the paper that I was astounded by - that so and so was getting the job, this person had refused an interview. Where did that come from?"
Smith later revealed that "meaningful talks" have been held with the English FA about a possible friendly date at Wembley.
What are these?

Your Mouth, Tongue, or Gums Itch When You Eat Certain Foods
The explanation: Chances are, you're having some kind of allergic reaction. If the itching is mild and only in your mouth, it may suggest oral allergy syndrome. People with this syndrome react to plant-based foods that contain proteins similar to ones they are allergic to. For example, an allergy to birch-tree pollen can cause a reaction to such foods as apples, carrots, and almonds. Your reaction could also be a food allergy, the most common of which are to finned fish, -shellfish, soy, eggs, wheat, nuts, and milk. This is even more likely if you get a rash, tingling, or swelling, says Horne.
The fix: Mild, mouth-only symptoms should go away in a few minutes.
When to see a doctor: If you suspect you have a classic food allergy. And if you experience trouble breathing, go to the emergency room immediately. This could be a sign of anaphylactic shock, which can be fatal.
Your Fingers Refuse to Bend
The explanation: When your fingers have been in one position for a long time—while you're writing or sleeping, say—the flexor tendons can swell and become stuck, says Strickland.
The fix: Use your other hand to bend the locked finger and hold it there for a few seconds. You can also ice the joint and take a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, such as Advil, to ease the swelling.
When to see a doctor: If you still can't move it a day later.
Your Eyelid Starts to Spasm
The explanation: Stress, fatigue, or over-caffeination is probably at the root of the problem, causing the muscle in your upper or lower eyelid to contract rhythmically, says Williams.
The fix: Close your eyes and take a few deep, relaxing breaths. "A spasm almost always resolves within a few minutes," says Williams, but if you're under chronic stress, it can last longer. (Fear not: You're probably the only one who can see it.)
When to see a doctor: If spasms occur regularly or are accompanied by pain.

This door you might not open, and you did;
So enter now, and see for what slight thing
You are betrayed... Here is no treasure hid,
No cauldron, no clear crystal mirroring
The sought-for truth, no heads of women slain
For greed like yours, no writhings of distress,
But only what you see... Look yet again—
An empty room, cobwebbed and comfortless.
Yet this alone out of my life I kept
Unto myself, lest any know me quite;
And you did so profane me when you crept
Unto the threshold of this room to-night
That I must never more behold your face.
This now is yours. I seek another place.

Ruth Fertel (1927-2002)
Company: Ruth's Chris Steak House
Started: 1965
Size: $398.6 million for 2012
In 1965, Ruth Fertel was a divorced mother of two, working as a lab technician at Tulane University and worrying about how she would pay for her sons' college education. One day, while flipping through the newspaper classifieds, she saw a restaurant for sale – Chris Steak House – and something clicked. Without any restaurant experience, she trusted her instinct to pursue that opportunity. While banks did not like to lend to women, she convinced a local bank to give her the $22,000 she needed to buy the business by putting her home up as collateral. She added her first name to the business, making it the tongue-twister she later joked about, Ruth's Chris Steak House. Fertel had to learn everything – including how to butcher meat at the high-end restaurant. In 1976, she began to franchise the restaurant while continuing to open more herself. As of 2013, there are more than 120 Ruth's Chris Steak Houses worldwide (including Hong Kong, Tokyo and Mexico), along with 20 restaurants bearing the company's Mitchell's Fish Markets, Mitchell's Steakhouse and Cameron's Steakhouse names. Ruth's Chris's Steak House became a publically held company in 2005.
"The restaurant staff was expecting me to fail, just like the others who had bought the restaurant before me, especially since I was a woman. Actually I never had a doubt that I would make it."

Hello to all!
My surnames are McILREAVEY and KILPATRICK.
Right now, all I know is that my direct relatives lived in
Knocknakeiragh, Ballyrashane, Union of Coleraine, County of Londonderry
in 1879, as they had a son there then (my great-grandfather John
Kilpatrick). I have a copy of his birth certificate. :-)
The names I have for my ggrandparents are William Gray Kilpatrick(b.
1857) and Catherine Hester "Hessie" McIlreavy (b. ~1859). (That
"McIlreavy" is how the name was spelled on John Kilpatrick's birth
certificate. I know that can be spelled McIlravy, McElravy, etc. Her
name appears on various different).
Family members always swore we were Scots-Irish, but I haven't really
established that yet for either of those surnames. I know that
Kilpatrick *can* can Scots, but can it also "just" be Irish? And
McIlreavy, heck, I have no idea whether that is Irish or Scots in
origin! Any ideas?

Remember Andrew Keegan? Well, He Started a Religion
Now, Keegan is the founder and leader of a "spiritual movement," called Full Circle.
Andrew Keegan in 10 Things I Hate About You.
The handsome 35-year-old Party of Five actor says he created the
cult collective to provide a destination where its members can "creatively expand consciousness through visual and performing arts, movement classes, workshops, forums and healing therapies."
That destination is located in Venice Beach, California in a building which, according to Vice magazine, used to host a Protestant congregation, then a Hare Krishna temple, followed by an offshoot of Christian fundamentalism.
Now, it is home to Keegan and his followers. One of whom is Keggan's girlfriend, Leah Santa Cruz. She and Keegan told Vice that their "goal is to promote the individual becoming truly themselves outside of defined boundaries." Mmmkay.
Keegan founded Full Circle after a violent street attack in 2011. While he only received stitches in the melee, it appears the incident was truly life-altering for the former actor.
Check out this promotional (I think?) video from Full Circle's web site.
FULL CIRCLE VENICE from Brett Mazurek on Vimeo.
I don't completely know what it's all about – peace, love and happiness?
I dig the song though.
