By Claudia Puig, USA TODAY
Last year was a record-breaker for blockbusters, from Transformers 2 to Avatar. But a number of excellent films that flew in under the radar deserve a larger audience and are either now available on DVD or will be soon.
•Amreeka. A slice of American life as seen through the eyes of a family of Palestinian immigrants who make a difficult, but ultimately hopeful, transition to a country that isn't always sure what to make of them. (On DVD Jan. 12.)
•The Boys Are Back. An unflinchingly honest film about a fractured family coping with fallout from divorce and death. The effects of these calamities on their innocent victims — children — are explored poignantly and with humor. Clive Owen is superb as a sportswriter living in the Australian countryside who struggles to raise his two sons. (On DVD Jan. 26.)
•The Brothers Bloom. This genial comic adventure starring Mark Ruffalo, Rachel Weisz and Adrien Brody feels old-fashioned with its charming romance and stately European locations. But its quirky twisting story, magical realism and witty contemporary dialogue make it an enchantingly offbeat genre-buster.(Available on DVD.)
•The Cove. This well-crafted, suspenseful documentary about the slaughtering of wild dolphins off the coast of a Japanese town informs, unsettles and calls audiences to action.
•It Might Get Loud. An unconventional documentary featuring a trio of real-life guitar heroes —Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, U2's The Edge and Jack White of the White Stripes and The Raconteurs — demonstrating and discussing, fret-à-fret, their techniques and inspirations.
•Phoebe in Wonderland.Elle Fanning is phenomenal as the title character in this moving character study of a troubled and imaginative 9-year-old. Her parents (Felicity Huffman and Bill Pullman) are caught between embracing her creativity and urging conformity as Phoebe's flights of fancy spiral.
•Rudo y Cursi. Mexican actors Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna re-team after their breakthrough performances in 2001's evocative road saga, Y Tu Mamá También. They have heaps of chemistry as a pair of twentysomething rubes recruited from a banana plantation to play pro soccer. It's a raucous, entertaining rags-to-riches-to-rags comedy.

So this year I brainstormed all of the ways that our students could code with the materials that we have available. I spent a day creating posters and preparing materials.... so that students could engage in meaningful coding activities.
I started with about 10 activites and had to remove about 3 within the first ten minutes.
The Finches arrived just in time to debut. We have 30 of them until March through a grant from Finch Robot.
Osmo Coding was a huge success and with the easy reset all levels feature, I was able to quickly reset it for each new group.
Osmo Coding was a huge success and with the easy reset all levels feature, I was able to quickly reset it for each new group.
My Presentation
What I Learned
- The posters really helped students to self direct and learn about the activity through the QR code.
- Pairing up higher grade levels with younger grade levels created an awesome dynamic of the older student helping guide their partner as well as creating an environment of cooperation. Coding is not a solitary activity and sometimes when everyone is doing Hour of Code, we forget that an essential part of problem solving is working with others to figure out new challenges.
- Having too many choices can cause problems especially when the stations don't function easily. Sphero painting is a disaster especially if your Sphero has a life span of 10 minutes after being fully charged. Paint on your hands when you need to help other students is not productive.
- The MeeperBots also had their debut but quickly had to be pulled as they were not coding them but rather shooting them across the room in drive mode. They will have to come out at a later date when I have more time to support the coding part of their features.
- Setup requires a good 30 minutes but is really worth it. Our high school volunteers really helped with the switch over and guiding our students through different choices.

The Andromeda Galaxy temple planet 2392 was a planet in the Andromeda Galaxy, where a big temple of an unknown civilisation was located. The planet's surface is mostly covered by water and jungle. There is also a native, primitive humanoid species on the planet. It's unknown how they are related to the builders of the temple.
In the year 2392, a cadet ship which carried encrypted documents about the temple was attacked by the Orion Syndicate and crashed on a planet in the lesser magellanic cloud. The Federation was able to retrieve the documents from the wreckage, but shortly after the retrieval, the secret services of the Romulans and the Kzinti tried to steal the documents.
- The appearance of the temple was based on the Incan Ruins of the game Illusion of Gaia, parts of the underground areas of the Archon Cathedral from the game Xenosaga, a title illustration of the German pulp fiction adventure series Sun Koh and Angkor Wat (the real Angkor Wat, not the dungeon of the same name from Illusion of Gaia).
- The 2 giant statues of horses in front of the temple are inspired by the game God of war.
- The guardian monsters in the temple are based on the gorgon Medusa from Clash of the Titans.

The Nigeria Field Epidemiology Training Program (NFELTP) is one of the 16 AFENET member programs. Established in October 2008, the NFELTP is a two year in-service training program in applied epidemiology, veterinary epidemiology and public health laboratory epidemiology and management. NFELTP was created to be a long-term ongoing program within the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH) and Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (FMARD). The program aims at training field epidemiology, veterinary epidemiology, and public health laboratory residents for leadership positions at various levels in both ministries mentioned above. During their training, residents provide epidemiological service as may be required to the FMOH, FMARD, and respective State Ministries of Health (SMOH) and State Ministries of Agriculture and Rural Development, through short and long-term field placements.
The field epidemiology component is similar to programs that have been established in more than 50 other countries and modeled after the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) two-year Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) training program. The public health laboratory training component is based on CDC's Emerging Infections Program which is a one- year applied laboratory training program.
Nigeria is among the first countries to implement a veterinary track to address the ever-increasing threat of zoonotic infectious diseases and strengthen the collaboration between the human and animal health sectors; a concept popularly known as the One World, One Health concept.

Charlotte Brontë
Release Date: October 6, 1847
Jane Eyre is the story of a small, plain-faced, intelligent, and passionate English orphan. Jane is abused by her aunt and cousin and then attends a harsh charity school. Through it all she remains strong and determinedly refuses to allow a cruel world to crush her independence or her strength of will. A masterful story of a woman's quest for freedom and love. Jane Eyre is partly autobiographical, and Charlotte Brontë filled it with social criticism and sinister Gothic elements. A must read for anyone wishing to celebrate the indomitable strength of will or encourage it in their growing children.
I must admit, I was not happy to hear the Main Street Book Club February selection would be the classic Jane Eyre. Regency Romance is just not my thing. At all.
Nevertheless, I settled down with Jane Eyre and was quite surprised to find…it was good. Really good. There are no heaving bosoms and quivering members in sight, just a ferociously tough little girl in some very unfortunate circumstances. Jane has so many horrible things happen, the reader can't help but sing when it seems like things are finally looking up for our little orphan.
I won't go so far as to say this is a perfect book. I think Miss Brontë would have benefited greatly from an aggressive editor to trim some of the excess verbiage along the way. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing. While the book may be lacking in some aspects, the story is worth slogging through a few bloated passages.
My verdict: Read it. I was pleasantly surprised by Jane Eyre. Far from the delicate flower that needs to find a strong, rich man (preferably with a title) to care for her, Jane is heroine I can get behind. With the exception of one emo-girl performance (the forest after leaving Thornfield Hall), she is downtrodden but never defeated. It is even more interesting if you take the time to read a bit on the Brontë family and look at the parallels between fiction and reality.

Cape Town, Oct 17: Chennai Super Kings' opener Faf du Plessis feels IPL teams are finding it difficult to adapt to South African conditions which is evident in their performance, as all the teams have failed to register a win except Delhi Daredevils.
Lions shock Super Kings, remain untamed
Chennai Super Kings, who have been the strongest team on paper, failed to create an impact in Champions League T20, as they are finding it difficult to adapt to South African conditions.
"You've got to get used to the conditions quickly and most IPL teams are starting off slowly because these are very different conditions for them," du Plessis said after his team lost to Highveld Lions on Tuesday.
Moreover, a close observation on the matches held so far would give more details about the teams that are playing well and the reason for their success, as Sydney Sixers, South African teams Lions, Titans, New Zealand's Auckland Aces are doing quite well.
"And the teams who are used to these conditions - the Australian and South African teams - are doing well," he added.
While Faf du Plessis had been the only player who has been performing well for Chennai at the timebeing, as he has the advantage of being the local player, Suresh Raina also has been partially successful.
The South African also felt that the team was not lucky enough on Tuesday.
"I think they bowled really well and we were a little unlucky. Gulam Bodi got away with a few lucky edges for fours and he could've been out any of these times. I thought our pacers bowled very well up front," du Plessis added.
"It's just that the Lions got the best of the conditions. The wicket was a bit slow when they were bowling and as you saw their spinner (Aaron) Phangiso got a couple of them to turn.
He further added that the pitches in South Africa were a little tough, as teams batting first would find it difficult to bat on, which was quite evident when Lions chased 158 to win.
"Sitting on the sidelines, I thought according to my knowledge of the conditions, as it gets colder at night, the wicket will get a little quicker and that's nice for batting. I thought after the sixth over of the second innings, it was perfect to bat on," Du Plessis said.

The weather is bad this weekend so let's move the tree/garden lighting to next week. Sunday, Dec. 14th.
Please get to the garden at 4pm/5pm and we'll turn on the lights at 6pm. See you all then and stay warm!
There has been a lot going on in the Transit Garden and it's only May! So far, we have:
We're planning a bake sale and more events. Stay tuned…
This gallery contains 12 photos.
Happy almost-Spring! Here are a few photos of the garden clean-up day – enjoy 🙂
Hello everyone! Please save the date — our Spring Clean-up day is scheduled for Saturday, April 26. Hopefully we'll have fantastic weather – we sure deserve it after this crazy winter!
And our Bake Sale is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, May 31 — and potentially June 1. Stay tuned… and see you around the garden!
Hello everyone – here are a few pictures of our newly installed shed – enjoy!
Hello gardeners,
We'll be having a Garden Work Day and Bake Sale on Saturday, October 12, 2013. Please mark your calendars and bring something yummy to sell 🙂 Oh, and good news: Megan has made real progress on the new shed!
We need lots of delicious baked goods to help pay for our new shed – sweet or savory! Even if you can't make it the day of, please arrange with Vicki to drop baked goods off.
We need members to help set up for the bake sale before the CSA arrives. So please come at 9am to set up tables, popcorn machine, create labels for the baked goods, etc. If you are dropping off baked goods please do so by 9:30am. This allows time to display your delicious goods & be selling to customers by 10am.
Members to help work in & around the garden:
For working on the shed – members should be there at 9am. We need approximately 3 members at most to work on this & if possible should be members who have experience with building stuff. There is a lot to do & it probably won't all get done that day, but the earlier we get started the more we can do.
For working in & around the garden we will need help to: bundle cut branches, weed tree pits along the side walk, water community areas, sweep the concrete area in & around the garden, pick up trash in & around the garden, spread the ground mulch out – it has gathered in areas again, fix the netting as needed, spread compost as needed. There may be other items that come up as well.
The CSA comes at 10am so we will have to plan doing stuff around them – before they arrive at 10am or after they leave (approx. 12pm).
See you then!
Hello everyone! Mother Nature has been testy lately so our garden work day has been re-scheduled for Saturday, June 1st at 10am. Mark your calendars!
We'll need 3-5 volunteers to step up and create a netting committee. Our goal is to fix and replace the black netting along the fence that is currently there. The netting helps keep trash and other items (that tend to blow into the garden) out of our space.
Megan is leading the charge on the netting project and can meet with volunteers after 6:30pm during the week or at a selected time on the weekend to give guidance on how to get the project started. Please contact Megan by replying to the Garden Listerv email.
Happy Gardening and look forward to seeing you all there!

of intellectual doldrums & filipino voices
in a speech on publishing in the regional languages that poet professor Ricky de Ungria delivered in cebu's academic publishing fair last july, he dared point out, bully for him, what ails the intellectual life of the filipino, which i dare say is true for mainstream media and the blogosphere as well.
"I refer not only to the appalling lack of criticism or critical frameworks by which standards of quality, excellence in craftsmanship, good judgment and taste are defined and observed in the production and appreciation of works.
. . . . for good or ill, our country appears to be a place where everybody is or wants to be an artist and no one wants to be a critic. A good ninety percent or more of the literary books published are creative works; the rest, on a good year, would be critical work.
. . . . this is an unhappy situation: for without the rigor and passion of critical thought that puts up certain standards of excellence in literary productions and points at directions that our many literatures could take, all we will have would be back-patting and mutually admiring literary coteries producing more of the same year after year, contest after contest.
. . . . the fact that of the total number of higher academic institutions wehave in the country, only three or four regularly make it to the lower rungs of the top universities in the world should tell us something about the state of affairs in our education sector.
Would it be too much to conclude from these that there is no viable intellectual or artistic climate in our country where ideas come freely and are grist for the mill of the mind- except for the political that passes off as an activity of the mind?
Would it be too much to put down as a corollary that we don't have an intellectual climate, nor can we bear to support one simply because we have lost the passion for truth because truth has turned out to be manipulable and changeable and undependable?
Or perhaps because we have not shaken off our feudal cast of mind and psyche that inhibits us from critiquing the ideas of the "elder statesmen" in our fields as a result of a kind misplaced measure of deference or respect for elders, and that allows us to accept conveniently their word as "law" so we don't have to bother with it anymore as we go on quietly with our own desperate lives?
. . . . year after year, we hold conferences and workshops on the state of this or that industry in the country, and we end up hearing more or less the same old things being said as if anew.
. . . . There being no such thing as an intellectual climate in the country, there is little knowledge production going on at all. If we can't even get our facts down pat, how do we even presume to advance to the next step of knowledge creation?
When we debate, we debate with persons and not ideas. Disagreements take on the unhappy form of personal affronts and become desultory and, in some instances, life-threatening. Then again, how can we be assured that the knowledge produced so far is legitimate, given that much of the valuable information about us is in the hands and shelves of foreign funding agencies and foreign scholars?
. . . . If, as with the fate of colonized countries, the colonial language remains the main means of intellectual discourse and knowledge creation, …in our particular case there still appears to be no decent intellectual discourse and knowledge creation in English, or our version of it, even in Manila, and still lesser, though emergent (the word "inchoate" came to mind) discourse has come about in Filipino. . . ."
CUT to the blogosphere's filipino voices, a political group blog offering news, politics, and social commentary, that's been getting raves from a circle of political bloggers and their followers/commenters but where the discourse is quite, well, "inchoate" comes to mind, just because freedom of expression is the only value and critical thinking stops short of seriously discussing and crafting options and solutions that could contribute to knowledge production and nation-building.
to my mind fv is just an extension of manolo quezon's blog, featuring as it does mostly bloggers cited now and then by mlq3 in his daily dose, but nothing more: no unifying thread, no consensus on anything, no attempt at synthesis to sift the grain from the chaff, writer blogger as well as reader/commenter left on his/her own, sink or swim, ang pikon, talo. good job :-(
in a recent manifesto (better late than never?) founder Nick cites James Surowiecki's "Wisdom of the Crowds" to justify fv's free-wheeling style:
Why the Many Are Smarter Than the Few and How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economies, Societies and Nations, is about the aggregation of information in groups, resulting in decisions that, he argues, are often better than could have been made by any single member of the group.
The book presents numerous case studies and anecdotes to illustrate its argument, and touches on several fields, primarily economics and psychology. The opening anecdote relates Francis Galton's surprise that the crowd at a county fair accurately guessed the weight of an ox when their individual guesses were averaged (the average was closer to the ox's true butchered weight than the estimates of most crowd members, and also closer than any of the separate estimates made by cattle experts).
The book relates to diverse collections of independently-deciding individuals, rather than crowd psychology as traditionally understood. Its central thesis, that a diverse collection of independently-deciding individuals is likely to make certain types of decisions and predictions better than individuals or even experts, draws many parallels with statistical sampling, but there is little overt discussion of statistics in the book."
interesting nga, if it's true. and if it applies to all kinds of decision-making. and if it works in the third world as well. and if it actually applies to filipino voices, where no one is keeping track of anything, no one is doing any "averaging" of any opinions on any issues, so how can anyone, writer blogger or reader/commenter, know that/what the group is contributing to anyone's decision-making, if any?
but wait, here's more from nick himself:
Here is something, if even on the concept alone, that can help us understand the usefulness of how groups can contribute to a better understanding and a better result in terms of decision making, and in our case, maybe in terms of our views and analysis on issues of great importance.
The wisdom of the crowd can only work, if each individual contributes independently of one another. To rely, solely on others' views and opinions can not only turn this theory upside-down, but can inevitably lead to what could be termed as "The Stupidity of The crowd". The stupidity of the crowd, in my opinion lies when individuals cease to think independently of one another. If we can isolate the views and opinions of individuals, then we have a better shot at arriving at a better outcome."
oh my. ano daw? independent thinking and endless debate lead to wisdom? relying on the views of others leads to stupidity? clearly fv's nick needs a crash course on dialectics.
In classical philosophy, dialectic (Greek: διαλεκτική) is controversy: the exchange of arguments and counter-arguments respectively advocating propositions (theses) and counter-propositions(antitheses). The outcome of the exercise might not simply be the refutation of one of the relevant points of view, but a synthesis or combination of the opposing assertions, or at least a qualitative transformation in the direction of the dialogue."
keywords: "qualitative transformation in the direction of the dialogue." until he gets it, he should stop with the intellectual pretensions muna because, really, buking na buking that he's in way over his head.

For a group blog, i think the danger of groupthink is greater than the danger from being 'inchoate'. Personally, i don't believe in trying to arrive at a synthesis on purpose because it would detract from the flow of the discussion, and more importantly, the value i get from FV is to test drive viewpoints which can later be used in the real world. Any synthesis is up to the reader and if the bloggers/commenters arrive at such a state on any topic, that would be a bonus. For now, i'd be happy with any knowledge spillover effects.
September 24, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Angela, thank you for the criticism, although I would have appreciated a bit more constructive criticism, rather than just criticism outright. But, in it, I see the point that is made.
In any case, I did not, nor have I advocated endless debate as a means of providing a solution to the issues that are to be discussed.
Mind you Angela, that it has only been six months, and we can never fully realize the potential of such an endeavor at such an early stage.
I appreciate the feedback, and would like your input as to how we should proceed.
I've been called out. Yes, I'm a kindergarten student masquerading as an intellectual. I don't need to be pretentious, I have merely put out there a "draft" with which further discussion and input made, and that which maybe, we could arrive, as you may suggest, a dialectic outcome. If that is being pretentious, then so be it. My intentions were nothing more, nothing less.
I may be way over my head, if so, would it be so bad to get some help.
What say you, as to the proper course to take?
In any case, it's a challenge that I am all too willing to take. Even if it's way over my head, I am all too willing to ask for help… Which is why I put it out there. For such criticism I am all too willing to bear, if it moves us forward to something that we can truly say will be of help in providing critical thinking, as the speech you have provided asks for. And in the end, as even Benign0 pointed out, move towards a resolution on issues with which we can have common ground.
September 24, 2008 at 9:54 pm
Free wheeling.. no, just freedom to write. Not confined or restricted to an editor which mandates only certain topics for a certain writer.
If any criticism within your article can be taken with 100% full agreement was the cynicism with which you make on the time it took to arrive at such a manifesto. I agree.
In another instance, you also miss another point that FV is trying to make strides in, and that is the need for more people to be active in the discussion. If for any other reason than this, that we can bring more individuals, who have gone the way of apathy, into the fold, I think it is yet another success with which we should be happy about.
Angela, I respect you very much, I am always hopeful you can contribute your two centavos on any issues, and even towards FV in general.
September 25, 2008 at 5:17 pm
I never thought of it that way… but hey, I like writing as much as I like "chaos."
But if anything, as an FV contributor, I should take the cudgels and criticisms for it as well.
September 26, 2008 at 3:23 am
indeed, perhaps FV's goals are a tad lofty. I can't imagine a single weblog being able to generate consensus. It isn't designed to generate consensus. Its about writing your own opinions.
Well there is a comments section. Comments should be encouraged. Spam should be shut down. To be more conversational, maybe they can program-in a 'reply to' feature. When that becomes cumbersome, a followup post is useful.
Lastly, blogs are incredibly partisan, so i don't know if any individual blogger will change its opinion, or 'synthesize' to use a fancier term.
September 26, 2008 at 12:27 pm
nick: gabbyd is spot on – fv's goals are just a tad lofty. scrap the manifesto. forget about making a difference or influencing the national discourse or doing better than mainstream media or climbing mountains a la martinlutherking. like cvj and marck say, happy naman sila the way it is, which works naman, fv gets a lot of traffic, di ba. and isnt that what counts in the blogosphere?
September 26, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Naku, kontrobersyal itong entri mo, Angela. Hehe.
Tinitingnan ko rin pana-panahon ang Filipino Voices, para malaman kung ano ang pinag-uusapan ng ilan sa mga nag-iisip sa bansa, at kung ano ang pinakamatalas nilang naiisip tungkol sa mga paksa nila.
Pero totoo nga ang mga punto mo.
Pero may mungkahi ako. Kasi, madalas, pare-pareho ang paksa ng iba't ibang nagsusulat sa FV. Baka makatulong lang na kapag natapos ang isang bugso ng pagsusulat sa isang paksa, baka pwedeng may nagsusulat doon na maitalagang mag-sum up ng mga punto.
Syempre, malamang, opinionated pa rin ang pag-sum up. Pero baka lang makatulong. Kung gustong magpalalim ng nagbabasa, tsaka siya pupunta sa mismong entri.
Sa porma iyan — na tingin ko, madaling matatanggap.
September 26, 2008 at 2:30 pm
teo: ang tagal mo kasi, so inunahan na kita, hehe. okey nga ang mungkahi mo, makakatulong kahit paano ;-)
September 26, 2008 at 2:36 pm
YM ba ito? Ang bilis ng sagot! Hehe.
So iniisip mong magsusulat ako ng ganito? Sa totoo lang, ang lupit ng banat mo. Hehe. Hindi ko kakayaning isulat. Pero totoo. Hehe.
True, kahit paano. Hehe.
September 26, 2008 at 9:06 pm
Angela, this is the most defeatist statement I've heard in a while.
Strive to make a difference or cease altogether and be happy with the status quo, with stagnation, because people say and think one cannot?
You point out obstacles as if they are bound by the laws of physics…
In any case, your criticism is noted. I do not agree. Except only with the suggestion made by Teo.
Scrap the manifesto? I say improve on it..
September 26, 2008 at 10:31 pm
good luck ;)

I like some of Ricky de Ungria's poetry, but I think some of what you quoted borders on the solipsism that so infects the Left with an arrogant self-loathing, for example:
". . . . If, as with the fate of colonized countries, the colonial language remains the main means of intellectual discourse and knowledge creation, …in our particular case there still appears to be no decent intellectual discourse and knowledge creation in English, or our version of it, even in Manila, and still lesser, though emergent (the word "inchoate" came to mind) discourse has come about in Filipino. . . ."
What could be more "inchoate" (and unconscious) than to criticize the inability to create "decent intellectual discourse" using "the colonial language" whilst using the colonial language to do it?
Personally, I am proud to be connected to Filipino Voices, where you never know how your writing will be received, or, and this is more important, whether it will matter to the readers.
Unless you yourself are willing to take that risk, you risk falling into solipsism. When you think you are ready and that your ideas can infect others from sheer merit, coherence, persuasiveness, then you will be ready to join Filipino Voices.
What I think we fail to see is that the topology of this medium ensures that "No Blog Is An Island" (not even MLQ3) though some seem fervently to wish it.
It is the unmitigated desire of many Filipinos to be unique. When we get over that, then paradoxically we will be.
October 1, 2008 at 1:10 am
nick invited me to join fv some months ago and i thanked him but declined because i have only so much time and mind for blogging. solipsism? quite the opposite.
October 1, 2008 at 3:52 pm
Naku. Kung anuman, sana'y manatiling buhay ang blog na ito, na naging isang sentro na ng chikahan ng mga bloggers na may iba't ibang kakayahan. Hehe. Fan mode.

It's possible to personalize the colour of a notification on status bar? When i get a notification, I see the black and white icon of the app on the status bar. It's possible to have a coloured icon instead of the black and white one? (For example the blu icon for the Facebook app, the green icon for whatsapp...)
Hope you understood what i mean.

Manganiello was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and raised in Mt. Lebanon, a suburb south of the city. He was a student at St. Bernard School, a Roman Catholic elementary school in Mt. Lebanon, and then attended Mt. Lebanon High School, where he graduated with honors in 1995 and won the school's Great Alumni Award in 2011. Growing up he was the captain of his football, basketball, and volleyball teams and went on to play at the varsity level in all three sports. Manganiello won the role of Jud Fry in his school's senior year production of Oklahoma!, and was involved with the school's TV studio. On weekends, he would borrow equipment to make movies with his friends, and became interested in acting to become a better amateur filmmaker.
After a series of sports injuries including a torn MCL returning a kickoff in a varsity football game against Ringgold High School, Manganiello auditioned for the Carnegie Mellon School of Drama as a senior in high school. He was not accepted, so enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh and worked at doing theatre. Manganiello re-applied to Carnegie Mellon a year later, and was one of 17 students accepted into the acting program. He performed in theatre productions and wrote, produced and acted in the student film Out of Courage 2: Out for Vengeance. Manganiello graduated in 2000 with a BFA in acting. Manganiello studied all styles of classical theatre while he was there.
Manganiello plays the role of werewolf Alcide Herveaux in HBO's True Blood. His character arrived on the third season of the series as a bodyguard, hired by Eric Northman for Sookie Stackhouse, when her romantic companion, vampire Bill Compton, goes missing. Manganiello's work on the show brought him both popular and critical recognition including 2011 Scream Awards for Breakout Performance – Male and a shared award for Best Ensemble, as well as a Saturn Award for Best Guest Starring Role in Television and a NewNowNext Award.
Upon completion of filming for season four of True Blood, Manganiello travelled to New York City to reunite with his Carnegie Mellon School of Drama classmate Matthew Bomer to shoot an episode of White Collar. He then headed to Atlanta, Georgia to shoot the film adaptation of the best selling book What to Expect When You're Expecting. Upon completion of the film, Manganiello then re-teamed with Bomer, and co-starred with Channing Tatum, Matthew McConaughey and Alex Pettyfer in the Steven Soderbergh-directed film Magic Mike.

Introducing Thread, a New Wireless Networking Protocol for the Home
(ENP Newswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ENP Newswire - 21 July 2014 Release date- 17072014 - Recognizing the need for a new and better way to connect products in the home, seven companies announced that they've joined forces to form the Thread Group and develop Thread, a new IP-based wireless networking protocol.
The charter of the Thread Group is to guide the adoption of the Thread protocol. Thread Group founding members consist of industry-leading companies including Yale Security, Silicon Labs, Samsung Electronics, Nest Labs, Freescale Semiconductor, Big Ass Fans and ARM.
While currently available 802.15.4 networking technologies have their own advantages, each also has critical issues that prevent the promise of the Internet of Things (IoT) from being realized. These include lack of interoperability, inability to carry IPv6 communications, high power requirements that drain batteries quickly, and 'hub and spoke' models dependent on one device (if that device fails, the whole network goes down).
With Thread, product developers and consumers can easily and securely connect more than 250 devices into a low-power, wireless mesh network that also includes direct Internet and cloud access for every device.
'Existing wireless networking approaches were introduced long before the Internet of Things gained ground,' said Vint Cerf, vice president and chief Internet evangelist, Google, and advisor to the Thread Group. 'The Thread protocol takes existing technologies and combines the best parts of each to provide a better way to connect products in the home.' 'A number of networking solutions and platforms have been introduced to address the growing demand for connected products in the home,' said Lisa Arrowsmith, associate director, connectivity, smart homes and smart cities, IHS Technology. 'Built on well-proven standards, including IEEE 802.15.4, IETF IPv6 and 6LoWPAN, Thread represents a resilient, IP-based solution for the rapidly growing Internet of Things.' Not Just Another Standard Unlike many existing technologies or IoT approaches, Thread is not an application protocol or a connectivity platform for many types of disparate networks. Thread is an IPv6 networking protocol built on open standards, designed for low-power 802.15.4 mesh networks. Existing popular application protocols and IoT platforms can run over Thread networks.
A Better Network for Developers Using proven standards and IPv6 technology with 6LoWPAN as its foundation, Thread offers product developers numerous technological advantages over existing wireless standards: Reliable networks: Thread offers robust self-healing mesh networks that scale to hundreds of devices with no single point of failure. Devices are ready when people need them.
Secure networks: Thread networks feature secure, banking-class encryption. Thread closes identified security holes found in other wireless protocols and provides worry-free operation.
Simple connectivity: Thread devices are simple to install with a smartphone, tablet or computer. Consumers can securely connect Thread devices in the home to each other and to the cloud for easy control and access from anywhere.
Low power: Thread supports battery-operated devices as part of a home network. This allows the devices that people use every day - including thermostats, lighting controls, safety and security products - to be a part of the network without requiring constant charging or frequent battery changes.

By Chris Colston, USA TODAY
The snake-bit New Jersey Nets (0-12) are off to the NBA's worst start since the Memphis Grizzlies' 0-13 in 2003, putting Lawrence Frank on the hot seat to join fired New Orleans Hornets coach Byron Scott.
New Jersey is five games shy of the NBA record of 17 losses to start the season, set by the 1988-89 Miami Heat and tied by the 1998-99 Los Angeles Clippers.
Next up is a home game Saturday vs. the Knicks, followed by a four-game West Coast trip.
Injuries have been key, to All-Star guard Devin Harris, guard Courtney Lee, swingman Keyon Dooling and forwards Yi Jianlian, Tony Battie and Jarvis Hayes. Nets president Rod Thorn wants to see a healthy team before deciding Frank's fate.
The box office is getting hurt, too. Tuesday's promotion of price cuts and two free tickets to season ticket holders drew just 11,332 to 19,990-seat Izod Center. The Nets have the fifth-lowest average attendance (14,202).
Thursday, opponents of the Brooklyn arena planned for the Nets filed suit seeking to overturn a New York state agency's approval of the project.
Injury front:
Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James (sore wrist) expects to play today vs. the Indiana Pacers. …Milwaukee Bucks center Andrew Bogut (lower leg strain and contusion) will miss up to a month.

Retailers Say They're Ready for Change to Trade Spending: Cannondale Study
WILTON, Conn. -- When it comes to trade-spending practices, it seems vendors are from Venus and retailers are from Mars, and that leaves consumers nowhere, according to new research from Cannondale Associates, Inc. here.
WILTON, Conn. -- When it comes trade-spending practices, it seems vendors are from Venus and retailers are from Mars, and that leaves consumers nowhere, according to new research from Cannondale Associates, Inc. here.
Trade spending is back near all-time highs, after dropping in 2005 -- yet manufacturers continue to view the practice primarily as a tactical tool to drive short-term brand volume, and that frustrates retailers, according to a new study produced by Cannondale.
It also turns out manufacturers are frustrated with what they see as retailers' trade-spending attitudes, leading to a stalemate that is hurting everybody, according to Cannondale's report, entitled "Shopper-Centric Trade." It is Cannondale's twelfth industry report on trade promotion spending and merchandising.
The study of industry practices identifies obstacles to success in trade promotion, and calls for change in a domain that offers huge potential to manufacturers and retailers alike.
In the study's survey, 92 percent of retailers said they're ready to consider new approaches to their trade promotion strategies.
But the majority of manufacturers claimed that their customers do not want new and different insights and plans brought to the table. This dichotomy, coupled with manufacturers' fear of volume loss and perceived lack of analytical resources, leaves the game of trade promotion at a stalemate; the same methodologies are used with no winners and few tactics for change, Cannondale said.
It is clear that with regard to trade promotion, miscommunications between trading partners are detrimental to the business of both sides, Cannondale said.
Despite this impasse, however, it is common across the CPG segment to believe that major trade promotion transformations are on the horizon. By closely collaborating with retailers and viewing trade as a long-term strategic marketing tool, suppliers who are procactive could soon reap the benefits of leadership, Cannondale advised.
"The key will be an increased focus on the consumer," said Todd Bortel, senior consultant, Cannondale Associates. "Retail customers currently account for 60 percent of total marketing spending, and the individual shopper is too rarely a pillar of trade promotion planning."
Surveyed retailers identified the manufacturers that they said currently perform best in trade promotion, including Procter & Gamble, Kraft, and PepsiCo.
For their part, manufacturers lauded the same key retail partners that have occupied top 10 positions in past studies. Wal-Mart was named best across all three trade metrics -- strategic vision, execution, and trade promotion overall -- while Publix, Kroger, and Target were also ranked highly.
"Shopper-Centric Trade" is based on over 450 responses from a broad variety of retailers and manufacturers that ranked each other on strategic and business trade fundamentals. This includes food, HBC, and general merchandise manufacturers as well as grocery, drug, and mass retailers. It was based on a combination of quantitative analysis and qualitative survey and interview feedback.

Love Your Tits Dee - She's got it all going on
Exotic sensual Latina cutie Dee has the whole package-nice ass beautiful eyes nice lips tight shaved pussy-but her best feature is that great set of size D tits. She says they're "show offs" that love to be touched played with made love to worshiped and adored-we couldn't agree more! As soon as she busted them out (pun intended) her nipples were already rock hard and ready to be sucked on. She gets those lovely tits all oiled up and then enjoys getting fucked between them and having them dick slapped. She gets so horny in the process that she throws herself into giving a wet and nasty blowjob deepthroating ball sucking and begging to get fucked. But she really goes crazy riding a cock-moaning and screaming for more in both English and Spanish as her smooth pussy gets stuffed deep and those ripe juicy boobs bounce up and down in all their glory-and watching those boobs gyrate while she gets pounded doggie style is damn near hypnotic! Before this nearly half hour of hardcore big tit banging is done she eagerly takes a giant cum load on those luscious melons and hungrily licks up the rest!

The survival, nutritional status and proper growth and development of infants depend mainly on feeding practises. The feeding habits vary considerably across the world though certain guidelines have been put forward for effective feeding.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life, followed by the introduction of adequate and safe complementary foods with continued breastfeeding up to two years and beyond.
This notion has been supported by other organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, the American Academy of Family Physicians and the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine.1– 3
Advantages of Breastfeeding
The mother's milk provides all the nutrients that are necessary for the infant during the first six months of life. Additionally, it also protects the infant from infections and other disorders by providing the essential components of the immune system. It further helps in forming a bond between the infant and the mother.
- Ear infections
- Chest infections
- Infections of the stomach and the intestines
- Urine infections
- Childhood diabetes
- Eczema
- Obesity
- Asthma
Advantages for the woman:
- Can get their figures back faster
Sponsored Links
Methods of Infant Feeding
The breastfeeding can be started as soon as possible after the birth of the baby (ideally within the first 1 hour).
There are various methods of holding the infant while feeding.
ome of these include:
- Cradle hold
- Cross-cradle hold
- Football hold
- Side-lying position
The common point to be followed in all these methods is that the infant's head and body should be in a straight line, the infant should be close to the mother's body and should be properly supported.1
Signs That Indicate Proper Feeding
- The infant has a large mouthful of breast
- The infant's chin is touching the breast
- The infant's cheek stay puffed during feeding
- The infant takes long sucks and swallows with a short pause in between
- The infant comes off the breast on his or her own after feeding
Signs That Indicate Sufficient Feeding
Following are the signs tell us that baby is getting enough milk.
- The infant appears satisfied after most feeds
- The infant progressively gains weight after the first two weeks
- The infant has wetted at least six nappies a day after the first few days
- The infant passes a minimum of two yellow stools everyday
Introduction of Solid Food
The solid foods can be introduced along with breast milk when the infant is older than six months. This is required to provide all the nutrients and minerals that are necessary for the infant at this stage of life. By the fifth month, infants are able to take soft food from the spoon and swallow, and as they reach the sixth month, their ability to use the lip and tongue during feeding increases.6

"We have already started the process of relooking at it (delisting regulations)... The work is going on delisting regulations," said UK Sinha, SEBI chairman
Having revamped buyback, minimum public shareholding and takeover norms, market regulator Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is now set to overhaul delisting regulations for companies.
SEBI has already started the process of a relook at the existing delisting norms.
"We have already started the process of relooking at it (delisting regulations)... The work is going on delisting regulations," said UK Sinha, SEBI chairman.
The capital market regulator has already overhauled norms pertaining to share buyback, minimum public shareholding, preferential allotment and takeovers.
Speaking at a conference in New Delhi on venture capital and private equity, Sinha said the market regulator has also received some suggestions about how the process of reverse book building is allegedly being misused by certain sections.
He also said the government would take a decision on "put and call options" shortly.
"The government procedure is taking a little time but I am quite assured that the government is going to take a call on that very shortly," he added.
"Put and call options" given to any strategic investor in a company is a routine business globally. Such a provision in shareholder agreements gives the investor an option to either sell the shares (put option), or to buy more shares (call option) on a future date.
To a query on co-ordination between various regulators, the SEBI chief said the issue has been gaining attention worldwide especially since 2008 financial crisis.
"My own impression is that so far as the regulators of financial sector are concerned, now there is a very strong mechanism in place... The FSDC discusses issues related to financial stability and cooperation (among regulators)," he noted.
The Financial Stability and Development Council is a grouping of regulators which was set up by the government.

Gorgeous, But Tight!
When I saw this dress I instantly fell in love. I love everything 60's and this dress just screams 60's! It is so groovy ;) I got it in the red color and it is amazing. The colors are just as bright in person as they are online and the shape of the dress is extremely flattering. I love the mock neck and bell sleeves and it's not too short. The only problem I have with it is the chest is SUPER tight. Thank God I have a small chest to begin with because if it was any bigger I would not fit in the dress. I am a 30DDD (30" band size, 36" bust), and bought the size AUS 8 which is the equivalent of a US 4 (my usual size in Free People), and I can barely fit my boobs into this dress. Conclusion: don't buy this dress if you have a large chest. The fabric isn't stretchy and simply cannot accommodate a large bust. This is a serious design flaw and the reason why I am giving this beautiful dress a three star rating when otherwise I would have given it five stars in a heart beat.
beautiful piece
love this! sucker for anything with bell sleeves. my only complaint is that this is more for small chested girls. The Aus8 fits about like a US size 4, a small 4. I'm 34C and this squishes my chest but its so pretty im keeping it. If youre between sizes, order up!
Beautiful, but too tight in bust
I loved this dress online and wanted to take it on a trip to California with me. I ordered the red in the AUS 8, which I think equates to a US 4. It was so tight in the bust area that is was smashing my imaginary boobs. I returned in the store, reordered in an AUS 10, and still had the same issue. I really wanted to keep it, but alas we were not meant to be.
I usually wear an xs from free people, and the fit of the dress was great. I did not love the collar on the dress, however. I returned it because I was not completely in love with it and didn't think I would get much wear out of it. I ordered the red color. It is very cute for a special occasion, though!
The 60's are back
Love the look and feel of this dress. Sadly the Aus10 is too small in the shoulders and bust for me. I'm a 34DD and usually wear a US6. It's too tight for me. The fabric is soft and rayon but not stretchy. I need the Aus12. Australian clothes seem to be size smaller than what they're supposed to be. This fits more like a 4 than a 6. The FP dresses I usally get are S or XS.

Shapely Sales: Consumers Attracted to Package Shapes
Food manufacturers have the potential to increase market share by converting to a shaped container from the traditional can, according to recent proprietary research conducted by global market research firm Ipsos.
Food manufacturers have the potential to increase market share by converting to a shaped container from the traditional can, according to recent proprietary research conducted by global market research firm Ipsos.
"As the leading metal packaging supplier in the food industry, Silgan is constantly researching ways to provide additional value to our customers. We make sure that we have a strong pulse on consumer preferences so that we can continue to evolve our product offerings," says Carolyn Takata, director of marketing at Silgan Containers.
The study, sponsored by Silgan, researched the purchase drivers for metal food cans. The findings showed that shapes can potentially increase market share even with a price increase of as high as 16 percent. Shape communicates instantly by providing upscale visual cues coupled with memorable and recognizable branding.
Last year, Silgan unveiled its shaped-can manufacturing capability to the U.S. marketplace under the Sculptured MetalSM brand. The objective is to provide packers with a container alternative that will assist them in powerfully enhancing their products' image without investing in new equipment.
The research also found that among consumers specifying a material preference, metal cans were ranked No. 1 by 81 percent of the respondents. This compares to 9 percent for plastic, 6 percent for glass, 1 percent for cartons and 1 percent for pouches.
Technologies have evolved in recent years that have enabled shaped-can production efficiencies and quality -- in both aluminum and steel -- to compare favorably with traditional containers. Both premium-niche and high-volume shaped cans continue to enter the global marketplace monthly. In many cases, these launches are achieving sales increases through product differentiation and enhanced functionality.
"The new technology is driven by the desire to provide an increased value proposition via a metal alternative," explains Takata.
Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Silgan Containers, a subsidiary of Silgan Holdings, is the largest manufacturer of metal food containers in North America, with approximately half of the U.S. unit volume in 2008 and net sales of $1.79 billion. Silgan's partnership approach, supported by quality, service, technology, low-cost producer position, strategically located geographic locations and extensive consumer research, is the cornerstone of its strong customer relationships.
Silgan Containers manufactures and sells steel and aluminum containers and ends that are used primarily by processors and packagers for food products such as soup, vegetables, fruit, meat, tomato-based products, coffee, seafood, adult nutritional drinks, pet food and other miscellaneous food products.
