Best Of :: Arts & Entertainment
William Havu, the director of his namesake gallery, came up with a frothy confection last summer that celebrated serious artists taking a lighthearted approach to subject matter. Many of these artists were riffing off toys or the idea of play, as indicated by the show's title, Toy Stories. The exhibit featured many amazing things, including works by Michael Brennan, Michael Stevens, Frances Lerner, Laurel Swab and Esteban Blanco, but as good as they all were, nothing could compare with the sculptures by Phillip Maberry and Scott Walker. Working as a team, the two created pieces that at first glance looked like cheap inflatable beach toys but were actually meticulously made polychromed ceramics. They were unforgettable — and so was this highbrow/lowbrow show.
We take care of our own. While this notion has always held true in Denver, the sentiment was never driven home more convincingly than when 3 Kings Tavern co-owner Jim Norris was unexpectedly hospitalized after being bitten by a brown recluse spider. Norris spent nearly a week in the hospital, racking up a mountain of bills. But soon after news of his dilemma spread, a number of good friends, including Jerri Thiel and John Baxter, organized a series of benefits for the local music champion, and tons of bands stepped in to lend a hand. Way to go, Denver.
When the property that once held Time Capsule Studios — the iconic recording facility where a number of classic Denver albums were recorded — went into foreclosure and was taken over by the bank last May, Martin Anderson, a real-estate agent charged with overseeing the sale of the building, discovered what he suspected to be master recording reels left behind. Sensing that these tapes might contain irreplaceable recordings — with sentimental value for those who recorded them, if nothing else — he made arrangements for the tapes to be salvaged by Haylar Garcia, whose band Hippie Werewolves had recorded at Time Capsule, and whose Decibel Garden Studios agreed to serve as custodian of the reels at no charge. As a result, classic recordings from the likes of the Fluid and Christie Front Drive were saved.
Wealthy Victor is living the expatriate's dream in 1960s Europe, but he's very, very sad, nonetheless: His mistress Louise has just refused his offer of marriage. So he has come to the elegant cafe he owns in Paris intending to starve himself to death. The staff is horrified. They suggest feeding him an imaginary banquet, plate by luscious plate, in hopes of changing his mind. As Victor in the Boulder Ensemble Theatre Company's production of An Empty Plate in the Cafe de Grand Boeuf, John Arp sampled each imaginary dish judiciously (Arp is actually a trained chef), and while he did, he dictated his obituary to the distressed waiter. This is a character who could easily seem tedious and narcissistic, but Arp played him with such warmth and intelligence that you couldn't help hoping Louise would accept him — and that he'd have a bite to eat.
9 Circles, which had its regional premiere at Curious Theatre Company, is based on a real-life atrocity in Iraq: an incident in which a United States soldier entered a family home, raped and killed the fourteen-year-old daughter, killed both her parents and her six-year-old sister, then attempted to burn her body. Taking us into this man's mind is a serious challenge. As Daniel Reeves, Sean Scrutchins needed to be twitchy and almost blurrily out of focus at first, and then, by turns, difficult, belligerent, humorous, unaware and in a state of deep denial. Scrutchins was all this — and then he took us by the throat for the play's terrifying final scene, shaking us out of our complacency and then setting us back down again, forever changed.
The character of Coalhouse Walker towers over the musical Ragtime, a panoramic take on the history of the early twentieth century based on the E.L. Doctorow novel. We are shown Walker's patient and ultimately victorious courtship of Sarah, the mother of his child; his pride, the insults he endures, and then his violent radicalization. When the actor scheduled to play Walker developed throat problems, understudy Tyrone Robinson took over the role of Walker a short time before Ragtime opened at the Arvada Center for the Arts. Tall and imposing, cocky and vulnerable, he gave full expression to the character's fierce tenderness and ambiguous morality, and his powerful, expressive voice commanded the stage.

NY Times article omits key information about conservative ties of CPB hires
Repeating a flaw [1] in its initial report on efforts by Kenneth Y. Tomlinson, the Republican chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), to correct alleged "liberal bias" in public broadcasting, a May 15 New York Times article [2] falsely suggested that Tomlinson recently hired both a liberal and a conservative to serve as ombudsmen for CPB grantees. In fact, both ombudsmen have conservative ties. In addition, the article failed to note that the media analyst whom Tomlinson is considering hiring to review National Public Radio's (NPR) coverage of Israel is a conservative who pioneered the myth of the "liberal media."
The Times article, written by Stephen Labaton, noted that "the corporation decided in April to appoint the two ombudsmen to monitor radio and television content" and that "Mr. Tomlinson [said] that the corporation would have a liberal ombudsman and a conservative one." In fact, one ombudsman, William Schulz, is an avowed conservative who was a longtime colleague of Tomlinson at Reader's Digest. The other, Ken Bode, is an adjunct fellow [3] at the conservative Hudson Institute who endorsed Indiana Republican gubernatorial candidate Mitch Daniels last year, as Media Matters has noted [1].
The Times also noted that Tomlinson "contacted S. Robert Lichter, president of the Center for Media and Public Affairs [4] (CMPA), a research group, about conducting a study on whether NPR's Middle East coverage was more favorable to Arabs than to Israelis." But the article failed to mention Lichter's conservative ties. Lichter's book The Media Elite: America's New Powerbrokers [5] (Adler, 1986), was crucial [6] in establishing the myth of the "liberal media." CMPA has received funding [7] from the right-wing Scaife and Olin foundations, and CMPA fund-raising letters have featured endorsements [8] from well-known conservatives, including former President Ronald Reagan and Christian Coalition founder Rev. Pat Robertson.
Media Matters has noted [9] serious flaws in a recent study co-authored by Lichter that purported to show a "sharp shift to the left" among higher education faculty, as well as Lichter's false claims in media interviews, contradicted by the study itself [10], that the study offers proof of bias against conservatives in academic hiring and firing.

"In FY14, I'm still expecting to see double-digit growth increases in home, much less in motor [which will be] low single digits," Andy Cornish, chief executive of IAG's Australia Direct business, said.
"But I think it will be less extreme – some people have seen routine price increases of 20, 30 per cent or more [in home cover]. I would see that it would be closer to 10 per cent," Mr Cornish said.
His comments come after IAG recorded one of its best profit results during the six months to December as soaring premiums and benign weather conditions worked in favour of the listed insurance giant.
The share price of IAG, which more than tripled its net profit to $461 million during the half, skyrocketed over 70 per cent last year and closed at $5.70 on Wednesday.
The insurer has been jacking up premiums by at least 20 per cent on average in NSW for home insurance. The increases come as IAG and other insurers recover from a slew of natural disasters in 2011 that hammered their balance sheets, fuelled reinsurance costs and wreaked billions of dollars in losses across Australia.
Chunks of the added costs have been passed on to policy holders, many of whom are facing climbing motor insurance premiums. Australian consumers have also weathered an average 5.6 per cent increase to their private health insurance premiums from April 1.
IAG previously noted that reinsurance costs rose from 6¢ to 8¢ in a premium dollar in 2011, although this has since stabilised.
"It's a bit too soon to say what's happened from a reinsurance perspective just yet, but it doesn't look as though it's going to be quite as extreme as it has been," Mr Cornish said.
Australia's home and car insurance market is dominated by IAG and its main competitor, Suncorp. The two listed players, which respectively own iconic brands such as NRMA and AAMI, control around 70 per cent of the personal insurance sector which covers home and motor.
Research from Nomura showed home insurance rates rose 18 per cent on average last year, while contents and motor cover climbed a more modest 6 per cent and 4 per cent respectively.
Nomura insurance analyst Toby Langley said the industry was "in something of a sweet spot", with premium prices up and claims numbers down.
"Price increases remain strong relative to recent catastrophe activity with [calendar year 2012] a particularly benign period. Average price increases over the last five years have been strongest in property," he wrote in a note to clients last week.
Mr Langley also argued in a separate note that
Telematics combines telecommunications and informatics in cars to make them "smarter", and could allow insurers to monitor and measure driver behaviours.
"A 'challenger' brand player, armed with a telematics-based product, could poach a relatively small number of the very best-risk drivers from IAG [and] Sun by offering discounts based on behaviour behind the wheel," he said.
But Mr Cornish played down the take up of telematics in Australia, arguing the technology would glean more interest in countries like Britain where young drivers face more hurdles in securing motor cover.
"I don't see it as having a consumer appeal yet in Australia and I don't think it's easy structurally to get in," he said.

osama bin laden
OT MBB: MSU vs UNC on ship that buried Bin Laden
I can only assume it will be the most expensive basketball arena on the planet. Can't really argue with how they're using it though.
...all but certain that the Michigan State-North Carolina basketball game ... will be played aboard ... the aircraft carrier that carried Osama bin Laden's body to a burial at sea.
OT - Calling all Photoshoppers! Ammunition Needed!
Calling all Photoshoppers! I am in desperate need of ammunition to retaliate against a co-worker. I received the following email this afternoon and was both offended and disgusted. Bin Laden may have been a Michigan fan and actually worn Michigan gear, but it is quite obvious that an Ohio State guy/gal would not be able to qualify to serve on the SEALs Team 6 and thus not be in a position of authority to make the kill vs. capture determination. As such, I cannot let this injustice go unpunished. Can someone much more talented than myself put together a funny photoshop that I can send in retaliation?
Why They Shot OBL Instead Of Capture Him:
EDIT: MGoMembers are outstanding. My initial failure may have ruined this thread but I have again been reminded of the collective awesomeness that is MGoBoard!

The drawing shows
The buttons were made from some large wooden beads, covered in material, with thread and faux-pearl trimming. This was my first attempt at material covered buttone.
1. The loop closures were made by fingerknitting. 2. the sateen covers a large wooden bead (approx. 25mm diameter) and secured. 3. I used the same thread as the loop closures, to wind over and up through the centre of the covered bead. A fake pear was added.
4. The thread was used to sew the button to the material. 5. the same thread was used to wind around the material shank (buttonhole stitch helps). 6. the finished buttons on the material. I used left over damask material (red) from my last sottana project,
This is the final manichino.
Manichino Made:
1. . Blue and gold with satin covered buttons, lined with fur. (largess: Fighter Auction Tourney, (21/2/10)
2. Red daminishino with satin covered buttons, lined with fur

The purpose of tomorrow's Wilson County Board of Education meeting has changed. According to a notice sent out via email at 5:06 p.m., the special called session will be to accept Dr. Tim Setterlund's official notice of retirement.
According to BOE Attorney Michael Jennings, he has received the signed copies of Setterlund's "release and settlement agreement."
"The board will confirm it tomorrow," Jennings said. "His last day on the job was Thursday, Jan. 23, at 5 p.m. He's turned in all of his vehicle and school keys."
When asked about the status of the two new individuals Setterlund hired from Shelby County and who started to work on Jan. 6, Jennings said he didn't know.
In addition to accepting Setterlund's agreement tomorrow, Jennings said he anticipates the BOE to discuss naming an interim director. Whether a decision will be made then as to who that might be, he said he didn't know.
Setterlund, who came from the Memphis/Shelby County consolidated school system, was on the job for less than eight months, replacing former Director of Schools Mike Davis on July 1, 2013.
The Wilson Post left a message for BOE Chair Don Weathers and received a text from him that he was still in a business meeting unrelated to school business all day and would "call a little later." If any updates or more information is obtained tonight before tomorrow's meeting, The Post will bring it to you here.
For more information about Setterlund's tenure, search The Post's website using the keyword "Setterlund."

I LOVE this scent!!! It's such a pleasant surprise. I personally love anything vanilla scented but there doesn't seem to be very many vanilla scents for men. Raw Vanilla is amazing! I wasn't too impressed with the top notes as they are somewhat generic men's fragrance scent; fresh and warm with barely a hint of vanilla. The magic only happens at the middle and base notes where the vanilla scent really comes through. The middle note of the fragrance has got a fresh, sweet smelling vanilla and this turns to a warmer, slightly woody vanilla scent at the base which is just perfect. The fragrance is not overly sweet or powdery smelling. It's just got the right mix of softness and masculinity to make it a great vanilla scent for men. It also last pretty long, ending off with just a light lingering touch after a long day. My only gripe is that it doesn't come with a spray. The bottle comes with a screw on cap which means you have just have to splash on the cologne. I prefer spraying my fragrances so this is easily solved be decanting it into a perfume atomiser. My shopping experience with FragranceX was great also. [...].Glad I found this site and Raw Vanilla! I highly recommend it! ;o)

I thought it was going to be more...vanilla. It's to faint of a scent to me. Almost as if I didn't know that it was vanilla, I wouldn't notice unless I was paying attention.
All in all it smells nice, just not the mouth watering vanilla explosion I was expecting.

Comments about Raw Vanilla Cologne:
I wasn't expecting it to be as mild as it is. The vanilla scent is most definitely there, although it takes a bit to register that it's distinctly vanilla.
It's a great cologne with a scent that doesn't overpower you with vanilla, but I find that I need to reapply more often in the same day than I normally do. Because of that, I'd recommend it for evening/special occasions and as a nice alternative to what would be your normal cologne. Personally I'll look for others as staple scents because, as great as it is, its drawbacks limit it from long-term usage.

First lady Michelle Obama welcomed military families into the White House Wednesday to kick off the holiday season, demonstrating her devotion to those who have loved ones serving and sometimes dying in war zones.
"I know for some of you, this holiday season will be tough," Mrs. Obama said. "You live in a grateful nation -- we are just so inspired by your sacrifice."
The real stars of the event were the children -- mostly dressed in red -- of U.S. servicemembers serving overseas or killed in the line of duty. They were escorted by the first lady into the State Dining Room to make decorations out of cookies and other materials, with the help of White House chefs Cris Comerford and Bill Yosses.
Many of the newly designed masterpieces were immediately consumed.
"They're eating their ornaments," Mrs. Obama said. "It's OK. It's OK."
The White House has two Christmas trees with military themes. One is decorated with ornaments on which Gold Star family members can write the name of their fallen warriors. Around the tree are photos and notes from more than 800 Gold Star families.
"It is still hard to know he's gone. He was my soulmate," a wife from East Peoria, Ill., wrote.
A mother in Anchorage wrote: "I love you and miss you, son. Thank you for all of the memories we share."
The main tree in the Blue Room includes notes from Blue Star children to their moms and dads serving overseas, Mrs. Obama said.
She quoted from one, written by a boy from El Paso, Texas: "Hey Dad, it's cool you're in Italy. So when are you coming back, because I already know what I want for Christmas."
In all, the White House is decorated with 37 Christmas trees this year. Also on display: a 400-pound gingerbread house and several replicas of "the most famous member of the Obama family" -- first dog Bo. He's 4 1/2 feet tall and made of felt in one room, just 9 1/2 inches of buttons in another.
Forget the replicas, though: the children on hand Wednesday got to see the real Bo as he made the rounds for them to pet. No cookies for him, though.

A few misconceptions that have come about since the announcement of a new racetrack at the Pima County Fairgrounds, some of which were reiterated in a recent guest opinion.
The opinion ("Pima County's NASCAR-track dreams are pie-in-the-sky fantasies," Friday) cautioned the Pima County supervisors to do some research before "blowing some money" on "pie-in-the-sky dreams."
Let me be clear. Taxpayer money is not going to pay for this track. And research is being done that will determine whether a track ever comes to fruition. If it happens, it will be because a private operator, with a great deal of experience in raceway design and operation, has determined it will be viable.
A little background is in order. As part of the 2009 Master Plan for the Pima County Fairgrounds, the county began considering development of a 400-acre parcel south of the existing raceway facilities at the Southeast Regional Park. The fairgrounds are already home to many motorsports facilities, including the Southern International Raceway, a 3/8-mile circle track, the Pima Motor Sports Park, an off-highway vehicle area and the P1 Kart Circuit.
During the collaboration phase of the master plan, a new raceway concept was submitted that would enhance the existing motorsport facilities at the fairgrounds. This concept was for a multiuse racetrack that would appeal to not just one type of racing, but many.
Pima County in the coming weeks will be putting out a bid package to the public for an opportunity to design, build and operate the facility. Some estimates of cost put the track anywhere from $15 million initially to $60 million after all phases are completed over a 10-year period.
It bears repeating that taxpayer money would not be used to build, operate and maintain such a racetrack. The private operator would, in fact, be paying rent to Pima County on the lease of the 400 acres.
Like other successful racetracks throughout the country, the viability of the racetrack depends on a diversification of activities and attractions.
While there has been a tendency to frame this project as a potential track for stock car racing, that can be a limiting designation. In reality, the Southern Arizona Raceway is envisioned to be a Federation Internationale de L'Automobile grade-two road course, roughly 3 miles long. This would enable the track to attract everything from open-wheel racing, endurance and sprint racing, motorcycle racing and even private car clubs.
There are many reasons not to dismiss this concept prematurely.
Pima County has extensive experience leasing attractions spaces, from Colossal Cave, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, the Pima County Air & Space Museum to the Titan Missile Museum. We know the model can work to provide top-tier venues while remaining conscious of taxpayer resources.
In this case, a multiuse track would be able to convert to many different configurations allowing driving schools, corporate and government test programs and public entertainment events. The independently operated track could greatly strengthen the area as an entertainment district, complementing not just the other existing motorsports facilities but also the existing fairgrounds amenities.
The concept is to create a facility that caters to not just one type of racing but rather opens possibilities up for many new events to come to the region.
We'd love to hear your thoughts about the potential. If you can make it, the Pima County Economic Development and Tourism Department will be hosting an informational meeting from 5:30 to 7 p.m. tonight at the Sunset Cantina located at the Pima County Fairgrounds, 11300 S. Harrison Road.
Tom Moulton is the Pima County director of Economic Development and Tourism.

|Forums: Index → Narutopedia Discussion → The Uchiha Madara Article
I want you to remove the Uchiha Madara article on this site. You are spreading false information and people shouldn't have to be given wrong information. I've taken the liberty of personally picking apart every aspect of this argument so save the trouble and just take the article off. It's wrong. It's false. You don't know who Tobi is. No one does. And above all...that information was terrible. I expected better from an entire page on it. That took me but one minute to disprove everything on that page.
- And I want you to hear The Great Kawas Words from Wikipedia Prime
Kept here incase I need them. The best form of logic we have.
Alright, I'll clear this up for the people who are clueless as to Japanese. I am no expert, but I am taking the JLPT and I have studied Japanese and act as an amateur translator. What Tobi says exactly is:「写輪眼の本当の力が・・・このうちはマダラの力が 」Which in roumaji transliterates to "Sharingan no hontou no chikara ga...kono Uchiha Madara no chikara ga." Which in English literally means: "The Sharingan's true power...this/that, Uchiha Madara's power." Now, I and other amateur translators suggested on the forums where this Japanese was discussed that it meant he was referring to the "power of Uchiha Madara" which meant the Sharingan or something like that. However, expert translators and native Japanese have said that the "kono" which is usually used as a demonstrative adjective for "this/that (object)" is used sort of as a pronoun in reference to himself (a supervillain way, some translators said as when Zabuza said "Kono Momochi Zabuza" to refer to say "I am Momochi Zabuza") and his power. And the translation has been looked at over and over again by experts in Japanese and that seems to be the general consensus. So, wisen up and accept the translation! The great kawa 01:47, 28 July 2007 (UTC
Boom. There ya have it. In case you can come up with ANYTHING that beats this type of logic, then as of now, Madara Uchiha is Tobi. Good Game.--TheUltimate3 03:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
I find that funny. You telling me to wisen up. You know what I find funnier? You use that as a point. Being a writer myself, I know one of the stupidest things to do. Is come out and say something. Now why would Kishimoto...the first time we see this side of Tobi...ruin the mystery for us? Is he that bad a writer to do that? No. He's a good writer, there is no way he is 100% Madara. And even if he said, I am Madara. He's not Madara because again, no writer should ever come out...and say something. That is a horrible mistake and any writer here would agree, you should never do something like that, it ruins the storyline for that person and makes the story less surprising, Asuma could of just gone, "I'm going to die in 3 chapters! Hope your ready for it!", or Naruto, "I'm gonna go 4-Tails and kick some ass in 239 episodes! Hope your still watching!" Writers never do that, it's a foolish, almost rookie mistake, and Kishimoto's no rookie.
- Because for the longest part Tobi was the loveable goof ball of the Akatsuki, nowhere near the evil badass Madara Uchiha is. As such, also as a writer (In retrospect, the classification of "Writer" is very loose. Technically as long as you can write a story, come up with stories rather complex or very simple counts as a writer.) it makes perfect sense. For months people had seen Tobi and gone "Oh snap, that guys Obito! ObiTobi! Whooo! Only to have Madara Uchiha slap in their face. Now with that, you have shown me nothing other than "writer propaganda" that "No writer would do blah blah blah" than my point remains more valid.--TheUltimate3 03:33, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
You said he said he was Madara. Well if he was and since you seem to know so much you must know the answer to this too genius....um...Why is he still in disguise. Why does he still have the mask? He doesn't need it anymore. We all know who he is. And everyone else in Akatsuki knows too, so why would he still be Tobi? Lemme guess...to make sure no one comes after him...I mean after all....he's the strongest person alive...he can't handle someone [I]fighting[/I] him! That's madness! MADNESS!!!!
Why does he have the mask? I don't know. I don't care. The point is he said he was Madara Uchiha, Pein said he was Madara Uchiha. I am sure beyond a reasonable doubt that out of the (usually) 10 members of Akatsuki, only Konan, Zetsu and Pein knew Tobi was Madara. Everyone else just knew him as Zetsu former subordinate, Tobi. Why he is in disguise is not an issue when it comes to presented facts, so I won't go off in a tangent of speculation.--TheUltimate3 04:09, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Sometimes...just every once and a while...think outside the presented facts...and dig deeper for something even more. Nothing is ever how it seems... Try and remember that.
- My duty to the Wiki is to go by the facts, not speculation. If I am going to "dig deeper" its only into things that are backed up by even more facts, and not random or seemingly random things I brought together. Why does Tobi where a mask? Because Madara Uchiha probably found the horrid decomposing body of Obito Uchiha and reanimated it with his spirit. Does it sound reasonable? In a show with a giant demon fox, a man who can move from one body to another, and man who manages to function quite well for not sleeping AT ALL in his 13 years of life, anything seems reasonable. Will i add it the article in any section past "Past Speculation" of course not. Why? Because its all just a bunch of research I threw together in my head.--TheUltimate3 04:23, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
Since it looks like the discussion is going in the way that Talk:Haku did, I'm going to step in and note something.
Wiki are based on consensus. For the most part when we have small bits of info that could be discussed if you started to assume a lot (As this discussion and the discussion on Haku's gender do) we go by what was stated and happened in the series. And when we do have facts on things, but there are translation disputes we go by the common belief and use Wikipedia's decisions to help determine ours.
For examples of use in the past:
- An old bit of fanon was that the Fourth Hokage was Naruto's father. We never documented this as fact until the series confirmed this.
- Haku has an androgynous appearance which can confuse people to his gender. The decision was to treat him as male because he stated in the series that he was male, the common belief was that he was male, and Wikipedia treats him as male.
As for this case:
- Wikipedia states "During their conversation, [Tobi] refers to himself as Madara Uchiha."
- The common belief is that Tobi is Madara Uchiha.
And so we consider Tobi to Madara. If the storyline of the series reveals an event which disproves that with a fact, then we'll change the article to reflect that. But while the only counter to Madara's statement is assumption, we'll use the common belief.
If you want an idea why he doesn't remove his mask, Wikipedia says "It seems, however, that [Madara] still has some vested interest in maintaining the illusion of himself as the carefree Tobi, as he reverts to this personality upon encountering a group of Konoha ninja."
If you try to use any sort of indirect logic to reason something, then you can come up with reasons for nearly anything to mean anything. So we only use direct logic, not indirect logic. Assuming that because Tobi states he is Madara, and since the Sharingan he has is part of the Uchiha clan he has some direct relation to being "Madara Uchiha" (Whether he is the original, or a reincarnation), is ok because those are direct facts from the series being reasoned with. But assuming that Tobi is not Madara Uchiha because Kishimoto as a writer wouldn't come out and say something isn't ok, because you do not know how Kishimoto thinks, and what he is planning to do with the story. That is a indirect assumption which can't be used. ~NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Jan 3, 2008 @ 06:45 (UTC)
i had a felling the next bad guy was gona be a uchiha
is it true that he is the uchiha founder and also is the akuski leader i am in america i read and watch on the net
...So am I and I already knew all of that. Yes Madara Uchiha founded the Uchiha Clan, while Pein answers to Madara, Madara already said that Pein is still the leader.--TheUltimate3 23:19, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

'"The Sharingan's true power...this/that, Uchiha Madara's power." Now, I and other amateur translators suggested on the forums where this Japanese was discussed that it meant he was referring to the "power of Uchiha Madara" which meant the Sharingan or something like that. However, expert translators and native Japanese have said that the "kono" which is usually used as a demonstrative adjective for "this/that (object)" is used sort of as a pronoun in reference to himself'
I actually disagree with you. Just because somebody uses a demonstrative adjective doesn't mean they're referring to themselves. And besides, your argument, as stated there, makes little sense.
As I see it, the sentence reads, as you say, as follows:
"The Sharingan's true power...this/that, Uchiha Madara's power."
By the rules of language, the 'this/that' can only refer to a number of things in the sentence. It could be referring to the Sharingan (as in... 'this/that is the Sharingan's true power'), or it could be referring to Uchiha Madara (as in 'this/that is Uchiha Madara's power'). Now. I ask. Why on earth would someone standing around on their own, as Tobi is in this instance, start mouthing off his identity, which he has kept incredibly secret by wearing a mask, to no-one in particular? There's no one else around. He already knows who he is! Why would he need to say it? That would be like me standing in a room on my own with nobody to hear me and saying "I am Sherbetmayhem!". It makes very little sense to do so, and Kishimoto's characters have consistently been realistically and sensually driven throughout the entire series.
Furthermore, I don't see how saying "This/That is Uchiha Madara's power" or "I have Uchiha Madara's power" in any way proves that Tobi is saying that he is Uchiha Madara. I can quite easily say "I am good at woodwork! This is the power of my great great grandfather" and it not mean "I am my great great grandfather".
I'm not saying that Tobi is or isn't Uchiha Madara. But the point of any literature is to create debate and mystery. You can't get insanely angry at an article for writing "Tobi refers to himself as Uchiha Madara". Each and every reader is entitled to think for themselves regarding the identity of any character in any book. You have no right to tell them otherwise! Let people come to their own conclusions based on the translations and leave it at that. Kishimoto probably wanted to intensify the debate regarding such a mysterious character. And before you say it - Kishimoto is an incredibly talented writer. And artist. Don't slander by saying you can't class him as a writer, and don't slander by saying 'anyone who can put together a sentence can write'. Kishimoto is incredible at what he does. The storylines, the techniques, and the artwork are sublime and that is what makes Naruto the best selling manga to date for Viz Media.
I'm sure that, whatever the identity of Tobi turns out to be, it will be a brilliant read. Kishimoto hasn't let any of his readers down before. Let's just wait and see!
--HantouMclean 22:12, 13 January 2008 (UTC)some say that tobi is obito,kakashis deceased partner.others say that he is madara uchiha.Well i think he is a combination of the 2(laugh or yell if you want,i dont care).for some reason i have this feeling that pein really 'hired' kakazu not to help hidan as a partner,but to sew tobis and madaras remains together.i know it sounds crazy,but he says he has madaras powers,not that he is madara and contained the power to begin with.and what better other part of a body was the last half of obitos.besides,madara was dead far before tobi was 'born'.And tobi only has one whole for the eye on the right of his mask.Obito gave kakashi his good left eye,that is why.You can delete this if you want,i was just trying to get my thought through.
Adding to this guys point madara has so far only shown his left eye as an adult maybe he has no right eye and kakuzu sew them together becouse of that.And madara could be taking over his body like orochimaru is doing with kabuto maybe ShadowShukaku 19:41, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
madara cannot be obito
If you remember well the chapters of kakashi gaiden in tome 27, you should know that obito's right eye was crushed by a rock along with half of his body. Madara/Tobi's mask only shows his right eye. This means Tobi still as at least his right eye, and since Obito's right eye was crushed, there simply is no way Tobi is Obito. And anyway Obito wasn't strong at all and he was a good guy, how/why could he possibly be the leader of akatsuki?
But zetsu or someone else could have used a jutsu to save him and his eye.probably why zetsu was first seen with him.And obito sais to kakashi in kakashi gaiden when kakashi doesnt want to save rin 'If thats what being a shinobi means.Then ill crush all the so called shinobi.'ShadowShukaku 19:36, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

available at http://www.masonhq.com/changes.html.
** denotes an incompatible change
0.71 Tue Sep 14 13:12:17 PDT 1999
- Logic of top_level_predicate was reversed in 0.7; fixed.
(Reported by Tom Hughes, Eric Hammond)
- mc_suppress_http_header(0) was broken in 0.7; fixed.
(Reported by Michael Alan Dorman)
- Fixed bug in parser section that determines whether % is at the
beginning of a line. (Reported by Tom Hughes)
- Parser no longer inadvertently accepts argument names with
whitespace. (Reported by Phillip Gwyn)
0.7 Wed Sep 1 10:12:55 PDT 1999
- Improved core implementation with two new classes,
HTML::Mason::Request and HTML::Mason::Component. Code is now cleaner
and more scalable, and the new APIs give developers control and
introspection over Mason's inner workings.
- Added documentation to accommodate new classes: created
Request.pod and Component.pod, and moved component developer's guide
(previously at Components.pod) to Devel.pod to avoid
- Object files have changed significantly (they now return a
component object). Pre-0.7 object files will be detected and
automatically updated, unless you are running in reload file mode
in which case you are responsible for generating new object files.
- New <%def> section defines a subcomponent embedded inside a larger
component. This allows repeated code and HTML to be modularized
without affecting the global component namespace.
- <%args> section now accommodates optional comments for declarations
- Improved Perl translation of <%args> section (submitted by Ken
- Autohandler and dhandler file names are now configurable
- Dhandlers, which formerly worked only in mod_perl mode, now work in
stand-alone mode as well
- Interp::exec is now re-entrant with all request specific information
having been moved to Request class.
- ** Reworked Parser API. parse is now called make_component, has a
simplified set of options, and returns a component object
directly. make is now called make_dirs.
- Source references now read from the object file, cleaner for a
variety of reasons. Preprocess and postprocess now work with source
- Removed obsolete and undocumented Interp::vars and mc_var functions
- Simplified chown/getpwuid usage in handler.pl (submitted by Randal

simply use <%init>, <%cleanup>, <%args>, etc. The old names still
- The utility bin/convert0.6.pl converts existing components to use
the above new syntax.
- New autohandler feature finally provides an easy way to specify a
common template or behavior for a directory. An autohandler is invoked
just before any top-level components in its directory begins executing.
It can display header/footers, apply a filtering function, set up
globals, etc. A good complement to dhandlers.
- New <%once> section contains code that will be executed once when a
component is loaded. It is useful for defining persistent variables
and named subroutines.
- New <%filter> section and mc_call_self command allow you to arbitrarily
filter the output of the current component.
- New <%text> section allows you to turn off Mason processing for a
particular section of text.

Let us be honest. Anger is about attempting to gain control. Generally people who want control over others do not have control over themselves so in their own confusion they act badly in a misdirected effort to put some kind of order into things. I can help you figure that all out and through peaceful solutions that really gain a healthy control of yourself and your destiny. You might even get a better job. www.MarriageCounseling.org

Oil Spill Dispersants
Despite efforts to handle a spill at sea, oil can reach the shoreline. Protecting the shoreline is of utmost importance, since this is the area where significant environmental impact and greater cleanup costs can occur.
Nalco is a leader in supplying environmentally safe and acceptable oil spill control products that have been proven effective in response situations around the world.
Our programs include:
A wide range of safe, proven products
Reliable worldwide supply capabilities
Extensive, worldwide application experience
Oil on a water surface can be naturally broken-up or dispersed by wave motion. This natural process is slow and often incomplete. A slick can travel long distances or impact sensitive shorelines during this unpredictable process. If the oil does not naturally disperse, the formation of water-in-oil emulsions (mousse) and tar balls will occur. COREXIT® dispersants were developed to aid this natural process. By reducing the oil/water interfacial tension, the oil film's cohesive strength can be drastically reduced. This makes it easier for the natural motion of the sea to break up the slick. Very small droplets are formed and complete dispersion is often possible within half an hour. Mousse and tar ball formation is prevented.

Project home page: http://www.phy.hw.ac.uk/resrev/SPOEC/
As feature sizes on silicon IC's become smaller and the performance of individual chips becomes more powerful, so the problem of providing a proportional increase in external input/output capacity becomes harder. Physical limits on the numbers, and bandwidth of, electrical pin connections create a substantial bottleneck. This project aims to develop and exploit smart-pixel techniques, which provide three-dimensional optical interconnects based on multiple free-space connections distributed across the full area of the chip in array format.
The objectives of the project and the approaches to be taken can be summarised as follows:
The proposed 3-D free-space approach is particularly attractive as, by permitting the construction of high-throughput reconfigurable interconnects (such as the crossbar switch), it could rapidly open up the construction of powerful information processing machines based on highly interconnected processor and memory blocks. This would include massively parallel systems and advanced shared/distributed memory machines. One could therefore anticipate significant impact on all those applications currently looking to exploit highly-parallel computing systems - an increasing domain, encompassing tasks such as engineering simulations, computational science applications, real-time image processing and game/entertainment systems. Distributed sensing/control systems in which large amounts of data need to be communicated from node to node with minimal delay will be another important application.
The project will explore the long-term potential of this approach, which offers the prospect of creating wide-band links to advanced Si-IC's with no limitation on connection distance and with aggregate bandwidths in excess of 10 Tbit/s.

Ford City eager for Greensburg Salem rematch
Inexperienced at the start of the season, Ford City's hockey team found its identity by early December and went on a tear that propelled the Sabers to the top of the PIHL Open Class standings.
Tonight, with a Chiefs Cup championship appearance on the line, top-seeded Ford City (18-2-1) will travel to Center Ice Arena in Delmont and play No. 4 Greensburg Salem (16-5), one of the few teams to witness the Sabers' early-season struggles.
"We were kind of hoping for this matchup," Ford City coach Doug Anthony said. "We both have the same style; we like to run and gun. We feel like we have more depth than them. They have a very small bench, and we're three lines strong, so we're hoping by the third period, we'll be able to wear them down."
Greensburg Salem (16-5) defeated Ford City, 3-2, on Oct. 31 at Kirk Nevin Arena. Ford City fell to 1-1 that night, and by the end of November, the Sabers' record sat at 3-2-1.
Ford City flourished as 2012 approached. Its defense, which had allowed 16 goals through the first six games, surrendered just 23 in the next 15 contests. And its offense, after averaging 5.83 goals per game through six contests, improved the mark to 7.53 during its last 15 outings.
On Feb. 9, Ford City avenged its loss to Greensburg Salem with a 5-3 win at the Belmont Complex. Anthony said the Sabers recently reviewed that game film and were reminded that the contest had been closer than the score indicated — Ford City led, 3-2, after two periods.
"I expect a really good game (tonight)," Anthony said. "They have Sean Beichner, and the kid is one heck of a talent. Fortunately for us, we have the Valaseks, and they're two heck of a talents."
Beichner finished second in the Open Class in points during the regular season. He had a class-high 51 goals and registered 22 assists.
Only one other Greensburg Salem player, Cody Austad (17 goals, 27 assists), ranked among the top 25 in total points.
Kevin and Jesse Valasek had the top two point totals for Ford City. Kevin, who ranked sixth in the Open Class, scored 25 goals and earned 33 assists, while Jesse ranked seventh with 28 goals and 26 assists.
Junior Eric Lindey (25 goals, 21 assists) and Josh Oliver (14 goals, 20 assists) also were top-25 scorers.

18 October 2012, Thursday, Hong Kong Theatre, 6:30pm - 8:00pm
Speakers: Professor Antony Kapcia, Prossor Hal Klepak, Professor Carlos Alzugaray Treto; Chair: Dr Piers Ludlow
This public discussion was organised by LSE IDEAS with the cooperation of the Institute for the Study of the Americas to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis. It presented a Cuba-centric perspective of the crisis, as an alternative to the standard narrative that focuses on the superpowers. To this end, specialists on Cuban history came to IDEAS from the UK, Canada, and Cuba.
Professor Antoni Kapcia questioned the usual depiction of Cuba as a mere pawn in the international affairs of the superpowers. Rather than being an unwaveringly obedient client state of the Soviet Union, Cuba was in fact guided primarily by national interests such as the protection of its sovereignty. By analysing Cuban newspapers from the time of the crisis, Professor Kapcia showed how the discourse was characterised by national sovereignty and defiance, rather than communist solidarity. He concluded that this crisis showed Cuba that the Soviet Union would not protect them at all costs, which further strengthened national sentiment in Cuba.
Professor Hal Klepak then analysed the crisis from the perspective of military history. He showed that Cuba was aware of its vulnerability to an American invasion, and that it could not realistically defeat the United States in a conflict. Castro therefore adopted the strategy of strengthening the Cuban military to the point that it would make any American intervention on the island dissuasively costly for the United States. This strategy allowed Cuba to mobilise a militia of over a quarter of a million persons in a single day, on 22 October. He concluded that despite generally being overlooked in accounts of the crisis, the Cuban military was actually in a position be an effective factor in the calculation of both superpowers during the crisis.
Dr. Carlos Alzugaray Treto then examined Cuba's foreign policy priorities at the time of the crisis. He argued that the island's overarching strategy was to deter American intervention by convincing the United States leadership that any invasion of Cuba would be very costly. He added that the acceptance of Soviet intermediate-range missiles on Cuban soil was consistent with this strategy of deterrence. He concluded that this national strategy, rather than unconditional solidarity between Havana and Moscow, had determined Cuba's actions during the crisis.

On May 2, 1843, Canadian-American inventor Elijah McCoy was born in Ontario, Canada.
McCoy was born to former slaves who fled the U.S. via the underground railroad. When McCoy was just three years old, the family moved back to the U.S. and settled in Detroit, Michigan.
At age 15, McCoy traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland, to complete an apprenticeship in mechanical engineering. Upon return to the U.S., McCoy was unable to find work as a mechanical engineer despite his training and certification. In lieu of his career ambitions, McCoy accepted a job as a fireman and oiler for the Michigan Central Railroad. The job required McCoy to fuel steam engines and lubricate the engine's moving parts as well as the train's axles and bearings.
Because of his advanced training, McCoy was able to revolutionize the steam engine by creating a lubricator that used steam pressure to pump oil wherever it was needed; thus eliminating the need to stop trains for lubrication. McCoy was issued his first patent for this device on July 12, 1872. McCoy's lubricator was so effective that customers seeking the device began asking for "the real McCoy," so that they would recieve his specific invention.
McCoy patented nearly 60 devices over the span of his lifetime, including designs for an ironing board and lawn sprinkler.
He died on Oct. 10, 1929.

HHS track star selected to All-State squad
Jonathan Menard - Jun 13, 2013
Hahnville track star Bryce Robinson was selected to the Louisiana Sports Writers Association All-State team.
For track, All-State is not picked by classification. Instead, it is a composite team comprised of athletes from all divisions, from Class 1A to Class 5A, which makes Robinsons selection even more impressive.
Robinson was chosen after he dominated the 1600 meter in the district and regional championships. Though he didnt run the race during the regular season, Robinson won the district championship with a time of four minutes and 35 seconds.
He followed that up with a regional championship, cruising past the competition with a time of four minutes and 28 seconds.
At the state championship, Robinson led the 1600 meter field for more than half the race, but missed a chance to get on the podium by .34 of a second.

Halle Berry: Power 100 Woman
Enjoying a swanky morning, Halle Berry was spotted at the Hollywood Reporter's Annual Power 100: Women in Entertainment Breakfast today (December 7).
The "Monster's Ball" actress mingled with fellow superstar Helen Mirren as well as Hollywood legend Morgan Freeman at the Beverly Hills Hotel event.
In related news, Halle is supposedly having a rough time with the idea that her babydaddy Gabriel Aubry is getting cozy with Kim Kardashian.
Though she's moved on with Olivier Martinez, Ms. Berry is afraid that her daughter Nahla could be subject to undue media attention if Gabriel gets serious with the reality television star.

There is undeniably no accessory quite as practical but equally chic as the historically esteemed hat. It's the classic staple item that's been transforming wardrobes for centuries. Whether it be a baseball cap, beanie or fedora (the list goes on), they all serve certain purposes while also making you look fabulous. Such an accessory is often dismissed as a piece simply used to keep you warm or protect your face from the sun, but just because it's functional doesn't mean that you should put any less effort into looking your best.
This Fashionista was sporting the floppy hat in New York City just days away from spring. Floppy hats aren't just for summers in the Hamptons, although the straw ones work very nicely on any beach day.
