POLICE have released a description of a man who allegedly tried to snatch a two-year-old girl in Towneley Park.
Officers were called to the park, at the back of Towneley Hall, on Wednesday lunchtime after a dad told them that a man had grabbed his daughter.
A spokesman for Lancashire Police said: "We received a report of an incident at noon on Wednesday, May 21, where it is alleged a man has approached a two-year-old child while she was in company of her father near to the tunnel of the forest walk in Towneley Park.
"It was reported that he has taken hold of the girl by her arm and appeared to pull at her. At no time was the girl separated from her father and she was not hurt during the incident.
"The man has been described as being Asian, in his late 30s, 5ft 4ins, with short hair, wearing white shorts with a tribal blue pattern and a grey t-shirt.
"Officers are now investigating this incident. If anyone has any information, please call Police on 101 quoting log number 0502 of 21/05/2014. Alternatively, you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."
Burnley Council is helping police with the investigation and has offered access to its CCTV footage from the park.

Tina Turner feared longtime love would change once they wed
Rock legend Tina Turner was hesitant to walk down the aisle again because of her abusive marriage to Ike Turner. The 73-year-old entertainer made her longtime boyfriend Erwin Back wait 30 years before agreeing to exchange vows with him in Switzerland last month (Jul13), revealing it it took her a long time to realise that he would not change after they became man and wife.
In a new TV interview with pal Oprah Winfrey, Turner says, "I kind of thought marriage says ownership: you are my wife! And I didn't want that my anything anymore. I had enough of that from growing up with my family and that situation. I just didn't want hands in control anymore. Which I didn't think Erwin would, but he might have because, psychologically, that law (marriage) changes people's minds: 'You have to do certain things now because you are my wife.'"
Turner admits that it was the thought of her longtime love not being able to legally make decisions about her estate upon her death that finally made her say yes to a proposal.
She continues, "There comes a time in life, and as everyone knows I'm 73, you must put things in place.
"First, I started consolidating. I got rid of the house in France, the property in America… anything that was costly, I totally got rid of. Then the next thing I found is that if something happened in death for me… Erwin and I weren't married… (and) he would have no say. And I thought it was a bit unfair to live with someone for as long as we are and not to give him any say."

A SEVEN-vehicle crash closed the A170 at Sutton Bank for more than two hours when a sudden heavy snow shower fell on the steep climb.
The road at Sutton Bank between Thirsk and Helmsley was completely blocked just before 5pm yesterday as cars lost control on a steep hairpin halfway down the slope above Sutton-under-Whitestonecliff in the unexpected snowfall.
Two cars overturned, and firefighters and ambulance crews worked with police to deal with the occupants of all seven cars.
One person was taken to hospital but their injuries were not believed to be serious. No-one was seriously injured but the unexpected weather made driving conditions hazardous between Thirsk and Scarborough.

UF student-to-be gets big surprise: $2,500 scholarship
Published: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 9:59 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 7, 2012 at 9:59 p.m.
Marielis Nieves thought she drove two hours from Georgia to the University of Florida on Wednesday just to talk about her upcoming first semester of college and look at her financial aid options.
Photo Galleries
She left with a $2,500 scholarship from Dr. Pepper and a chance to win more.
Nieves, 18, is a student in UF's Innovation Academy, the program in which students only take on-campus courses during spring and summer semesters.
She sat in a Criser Hall conference room Wednesday with a handful of classmates to discuss inaugural activities, updates to the program and study abroad opportunities.
During the meeting, Dr. Pepper executives surprised Nieves by presenting her a check for $2,500 and offering her the opportunity to attend the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta next month to compete for a $100,000 grand prize during halftime.
She said she was confused when people walked in with cameras and red and white balloons until her eyes caught the Dr. Pepper logo on the red sweater vest worn by one of the executives.
"This isn't happening," she thought. "This isn't real."
Nieves had submitted a video as part of the Dr. Pepper Tuition Giveaway, where she explains why she deserves the money.
In the video, the native of St. Marys, Ga., and an aspiring anthropology major wears a red Dr. Pepper shirt and explains that she could use the money because of the high cost of out-of-state tuition and the fact that her father works two jobs to support the family.
On Wednesday, she considered the scholarship a gift for her 19th birthday, which is Saturday.
"This is unbelievable," she said.
She breathed deeply as she processed the news before calling her dad to come join the meeting quickly.
"Well, hurry up," she said, without explaining. "You better run."
Like his daughter, Henry Nieves, 47, held back emotion as he took in the surprise and talked about how they had planned to look at financial aid options for Marielis later in the day.
"We came here today to see what we can do," he said.
He said he told his daughter that no matter what, they would make it happen. Something would come up.
From the crowd, someone pointed out the obvious and was met with laughter.
"Something came up!"

I have a Toyota Tacoma pick-up and the headlights were beginning to oxidize pretty bad. I was at the dealer getting my oil changed when I inquired on the replacement price. I about fell over when they said $279.00 + tax (7%). I could not believe the headlights would be almost $600 to replace so I went online to www.Go-Parts.com and seen the same headlights for $50.00. I ordered one thinking I would take a chance and worried if I would be disappointed. They arrived quickly and to my surprise were exactly the same (minus the oxidation) and went in no problem. They even came with new bulbs already in them. I ordered the other headlight and had the same great experience. Go-Parts has exceeded my expectations in service, quality, and price. I recommend the site to everyone I know!

House LimitTrivia brain teasers have some element of trivia in them, but they are not just pure trivia questions.
Even though the odds are always in favor of the gambling house, why does the establishment insist on a house limit on stakes?
AnswerEvery casino in the world would go bankrupt without a house limit on stakes. Without it, gamblers would keep doubling their stakes until they won. No matter how bad a losing streak they were on, they would eventually win.

Hacker says he grabbed 3 million plain-text customer records from Verizon Wireless

Verizon better get on this. They always preach about a secure network for phones yet can't keep their customers info private. Smh
5. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
VZW had better get on this ASAP. No action after public notice generally falls under the category of willful and malicious disregard of customer data. Can we say class action lawsuit?
3. PhoneArenaUser (Posts: 5498; Member since: 05 Aug 2011)
Title says: "Hacker says he grabbed 3 million plain-text customer records from Verizon Wireless"
And at the bottom of article we can see: "Learn More about Verizon pre-owned phones (sponsored)"
Negative article about Verizon + Advertisement for Verizon = WTF???
I just don't know what to say. LOL! :D

Verizon doesn't give a F*** about its customers or their info, just how much money can be sucked out of them each month. The lack of response shows the CYA attitude until someone can figure out how to monetize "better security".

verizon needs to pay this man or else someone with a "real" motive wont be so nice! smh its really a shame how companies can have their noses so high up in the air that they wont believe you when you are trying to help them out and save them from something bad...... if they dont respond to this man then i truly hope they get whats coming to them........i dont wish harm on the innocent customers but somthing must be done to bring their pride down to HUMAN LEVEL!
9. theBankRobber (Posts: 682; Member since: 22 Sep 2011)
These big corps always do this, then when the attack happens they try to scramble to get it fixed. If a bomb threat is made, they evacuate the place to find it. When an online attack happens, the big corps play it off until exposed information is leaked and lawsuits start.
10. PhoneBone (Posts: 1; Member since: 22 Dec 2012)
Phonearena....Do you guys research the stuff you post before you post it? While this is obviously a serious issue, it has nothing at all to do with Verizon Wireless. If you read the actual article that you link to, or check out the guys Twitter account that you mention, you would see that these are Verizon FIOS accounts and not Verizon Wireless mobile phone accounts.
Posting this on a site dedicated to phones will just get other people who don't actually read or research articles all worked up. The next thing you know, everyone starts freaking out at Verizon Wireless and calling up to complain. Verizon Wireless was not affected by this hacker.

20. Droid_X_Doug (Posts: 5993; Member since: 22 Dec 2010)
Not really (about feeling stupid). If PA would allow editing/updating of a post, I could simply change VZW to Verizon and my post would be completely relevant.
Hey PA, how about it (allowing a post author to edit their posts longer than 120 seconds after saving)?
19. belovedson (Posts: 1052; Member since: 30 Nov 2010)
verizon give us all a discount. 20 dollars off the next 10 years
22. networkdood (Posts: 6330; Member since: 31 Mar 2010)
If you read the original articles it is info on Verizon FioS customers, I believe.

24 Heures, one of the regional dailies of Switzerland, once again noted the Harun Yahya Conferences of Switzerland on its edition dated May 26th, 2010. The daily with 245.000 readers stated in the article titled "Muslim Creationist Attracted a Big Crowd to Beaulieu" as follows:
Yesterday more than 500 people listened to the statements, pertinaciously defended by Harun Yahya against Darwin's theory of evolution… In the wee hours, Harun Yahya was to speak in front of 500 people through a visual conference system. The conference was in English and French translation could be listened to with headphones. Almost all of the 350 headphones were used. Here is a point that the supporters of Harun Yahya have led a grand poster and publicity campaign in Lausanne and Switzerland during the last weeks.

Providing high quality synchronised swimming performances
Who are Aquabatix?
Aquabatix are an event company providing high quality synchronised swimming performances. The company was founded in 2004 by Katie Fried and Adele Carlsen who both competed internationally since the age of 11. As well as being duet partners, Katie's experience in event management and Adele's talent of choreography make them the perfect business partners.
Throughout their swimming careers they have performed in an array of events including modelling for Alexander McQueen and appearing on television. Through this experience they found their business niche of entertaining through this fantastic sport.
When Katie and Adele met with their mentor Cecilia Kragsterman through the UCL Advances SMILE programme, they were seeking to make their business more commercial and sustainable as well as working out how best to utilise each other's strengths.
How did UCL help?
SMILE mentor, Cecilia's 20 years experience in the services sector as a Senior Executive and Non Executive Director and her business background with mentoring experience meant she was the perfect sounding board to help Katie and Adele reach their key objectives.
Cecilia identified that Aquabatix needed help with their strategy including how to use their limited resources to maximise sales and how to improve their marketing approach. After reaching the semi-finals on Britain's Got Talent in 2011, they needed to leverage the national coverage.
When Katie and Adele met it was crunch time as they were questioning if they should continue and if they could afford both salaries. "The mentor challenged us to think about ways to make things work – different ways of approaching work. The commercial focus was the culmination of a 6 month plan. We stuck to the plan religiously, delivered salaries and paid back any loans. The plan looked at how we worked together, where we were making money and where was the profit. This then became our focus for getting more of this type of work – even though it took us out of our comfort zone! We also cut unnecessary costs."
" Turnover has been higher in the last 5 months than the previous 18 months"
What were the results?
Both Katie and Adele were trying to find their feet with working together in the most effective way – the shared commercial experience and how to work in partnership was crucial to the business. Cecilia's advice and support helped bring structure to the future plans of Aquabatix.
The discussions between them and their mentor made them stronger and gave them more confidence and conviction. Aquabatix have also seen an increase in turnover which has been more in the last 5 months than the previous 18 months.
They are now setting their future objectives including having a physical presence overseas, in Dubai for example.

Christians mark Jesus' crucifixion on Good Friday
Published: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 10:14 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 29, 2013 at 10:14 a.m.
JERUSALEM — Hundreds of Christians streamed through the cobblestone alleyways of Jerusalem's Old City on Friday, hoisting wooden crosses and chanting prayers to mark the crucifixion of Jesus.
Throngs of pilgrims walked a traditional Good Friday procession that retraces Jesus' steps along the Via Dolorosa, Latin for the "Way of Suffering." They followed his 14 stations, saying a prayer at each and ending at the ancient Holy Sepulcher church.
Along the route, Franciscan friars in brown robes chanted prayers in Latin and explained the different stations to crowds through a megaphone. Leonard Mary, a priest from Irondale, Alabama, was dressed as Jesus wearing a crown of thorns. He was flanked by men posing as Roman soldiers and had fake blood dripping down his chest as he lugged a giant cross down the street.
"The most perfect love that was ever seen in the world was when Jesus died for us. He showed us the perfection of love," the priest said.
Good Friday events began with a morning service at the cavernous Holy Sepulcher, which was built on the place where tradition holds that Jesus was crucified, briefly entombed and resurrected. Clergy dressed in colorful robes entered through the church's large wooden doors as worshippers prayed in the church courtyard.
Later Friday, a service was due in Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity, built atop the traditional site of Jesus' birth. Christians believe Jesus was crucified on Good Friday and resurrected on Easter Sunday.
Roman Catholic and Protestant congregations that observe the new, Gregorian calendar, are marking holy week. Orthodox Christians, who follow the old, Julian calendar, will mark Good Friday in May.
Less than 2 percent of the population of Israel and the Palestinian territories is Christian, mostly split between Catholicism and Orthodox streams of Christianity. Christians in the West Bank wanting to attend services in Jerusalem must obtain permission from Israeli authorities.
Israel's Tourism Ministry said it expects some 150,000 visitors in Israel during Easter week and the Jewish festival of Passover, which coincide this year.

Daring horseback stunts and a special Tour de France area look set to be among the highlights of this weekend's Otley Show.
The 205th show takes place at Bridge End on Saturday, May 17, and will feature a number of new attractions mixed in with the traditional agricultural action.
An American Army Jeep display and a demonstration by Otley Sailing Club, on the lake, are among the fresh events.
Organisers Wharfedale Agricultural Society have had a bounty of entries for the show's stock-in-trade – the livestock, horses, pets, produce, handicrafts and floral art classes.
Secretary Janet Raw is now just praying for fine weather to ensure visitors of all ages can enjoy what's on offer to the full.
She said: "There is a new look in certain areas of the showground this year.
"Including, in the words of our chairman Jeff Crabtree, 'the splendid lake feature that has been an attractive backdrop to the show for a number of years, and has now been brought fully into use by Otley Sailing Club'.
"Everyone in Yorkshire must be aware of the Tour De France coming through the centre of Otley in July, so we are also pleased to welcome Otley Cycling Club and Welcome to Yorkshire, with their Tour display.

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Less than 24 hours after earning their 20th win of the year, the Saint Leo women's volleyball team pounded home a 3-0 win over the visiting Lynn Fighting Knights to improve to 21-9 on the season. The triumph came on the Lions' Senior Day,
After a 25-14 first set win, the Lions grabbed a hold of their offensive momentum and cruised home to a quick three-set victory (25-14, 25-20, 25-15).
Junior Lauren Campbell led the offensive effort with 13 kills on the night, but it was senior Meghan Donovan who blasted home ten kills for an outstanding .833 attack percentage. Junior Alexa Griffith-Hardy, who hit for .368 on the afternoon, collected nine kills in the match.
Defensively, the Saint Leo squad collected 55 digs, thanks in large part to a 19-dig effort from junior libero Yaidimar Santiago. Campbell also notched nine digs in the win, as the Lions held Lynn to just a .068 hitting percentage.
Before the match, head coach Sam Cibrone and his assistants honored the 2013 senior class with their traditional senior gifts. In front of the home crowd, seniors Molly Alexander, Meghan Donovan, Jaclyn Mailoto, and Jordan Sission were celebrated for their dedication and contributions to the Saint Leo volleyball team.
The Lions will return to action on Tuesday, November 19, when they host the visiting Eckerd College Tritons for their final home match of the 2013 regular season. The contest is set to begin at 6 p.m.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - After less than two years on the job, JaxPort CEO Paul Anderson is in negotiations to take a similar job with the Tampa Port Authority.
Tampa's board voted unanimously Tuesday to offer Anderson the job of port director and authorized an attorney to work out a salary and benefits with Anderson. Tampa port officials hope a contract with Anderson can be confirmed at a December board meeting and he will begin the job in January.
But JaxPort officials say Anderson is still on the job, and will remain so until he resigns.
"We do understand he is in negotiations to take the same position down in Tampa, and the chairman has wished him luck in that process," JaxPort spokeswoman Nancy Rubin said Wednesday.
Anderson's potential departure from the port -- which generates a $19 million annual impact for Jacksonville -- drew reaction from City Hall.
"Obviously it would be a blow," said city communications director David DeCamp. "Mayor (Alvin) Brown really appreciates what Paul Anderson has done for the port and for economic development in Jacksonville."
According to the Jacksonville Business Journal, Tampa didn't recruit Anderson for the job -- he applied.
In September, the JaxPort board of directors approved a 5 percent pay raise and $50,000 bonus for Anderson, but he asked that the raise be tabled after some members of the City Council complained about the raise.
The raise would have bumped Anderson's salary from $320,000 to $336,000.
The last CEO at Tampa's port earned $285,000, but its board chairman, William Brown, said the authority is willing to pay more to have Anderson at the helm.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- JPMorgan's (JPM) prospective $13 billion settlement with the Department of Justice over the bank's origination of mortgages prior to the collapse of the housing market clouds a banking sector that is struggling to grow in a weak economic recovery.
So far, reports of JPMorgan's potential record settlement with a host of regulators is being taken by the media as a referendum on the legacy of Jamie Dimon, the firm's embattled CEO.
Dimon, once a favorite in Washington, was reported by the New York Times to have staved off a DoJ civil action with a last minute call to Attorney General Eric Holder. Reports also indicate Dimon was literally relegated to a corner seat in a recent discussion between top lawmakers and large bank CEO's over the recent debt-ceiling standoff.
Clearly, Dimon isn't the banking industry's point man in Washington, a position he happily occupied through the financial crisis of 2008.
Record fines, quarterly losses and the prospect that JPMorgan admits wrongdoing but continues to face ongoing civil and criminal scrutiny looms large over the bank. But JPMorgan's current legal woes are also germane to other large pre-crisis subprime lenders such as Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), Morgan Stanley (MS) and Goldman Sachs (GS).
The prospect that a settlement is announced in coming days or weeks and its substance may pave the way for similar regulatory inquires and settlements across the banking industry, according to experts.
Meanwhile, recent earnings reports indicate large banks continue to struggle to identify growth businesses, in what has been a weak economic recovery from the depths of the banking crisis.
The pending settlement is reported by The New York Times to include $9 billion in fines and $4 billion in relief to homeowners and will leave open a parallel criminal probe brought forward by California, a legal issue the bank disclosed earlier in 2013.
A settlement would involve mortgages originated by JPMorgan and businesses it acquired during the financial crisis such as Washington Mutual and investment bank Bear Stearns. In acquiring WaMu in 2008, JPMorgan took over $190 billion in mortgage securities that had been taken over by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
Banks like Wells Fargo (WFC) made similar crisis-time acquisitions of troubled lenders like Wachovia, which also suffered from loss-saddled subprime origination operations such as Golden West. Bank of America famously acquired Countrywide Financial, in a deal that some analysts have called the worst acquisition in history. The firm also continues to face legal scrutiny pertaining to mortgage securitizations issued by Merrill Lynch, another crisis-time acquisition.
"The securitization business is pretty much the same from institution to institution and from bank to bank," said Thomas Gorman, a partner at law firm Dorsey Whitney, and a former Senior Counsel in the SEC's Division of Enforcement. "One would think that there might be a liability at other places," Gorman added in a Monday telephone interview.
A settlement could guide similar legal issues at lenders such as First Horizon (FHN), Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, according to a Monday analysis from Wells Fargo banking analyst Matthew Burnell.
The analyst said that First Horizon may be most exposed to litigation from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, given settlement figures that indicate a 12.1% payout on the loans JPMorgan sold to housing finance authorities prior to the crisis.
Bank of America also faces a sizable exposure, according to Burnell, while investment banks Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs "appear to have more manageable (but still material levels) of risk, based on our analysis," the analyst wrote.
"While the settlement is a step forward for [JPMorgan] in reducing the uncertainty generated by its legal issues, press reports suggest that the agreement -- as it is currently structured -- does not include a waiver of future criminal liability," Burnell added.
According to media reports, any JPMorgan settlement will leave open a criminal probe by the State of California into the firm's mortgage origination practices.
"This is going to have a rippling effect through the banking industry," Mark Williams, a professor of finance in the Boston University School of Management and a former Federal Reserve Bank examiner, said in a Monday telephone interview. JPMorgan's settlement may amount to 7% of the firm's equity capital, Williams said, and is an amount that would likely deter a return to poor origination standards.
JPMorgan may also assist the DoJ in criminal probes of mortgage origination staff. Such a scenario is similar to JPMorgan's settlement with the SEC over a $6.2 billion trading loss, which has left open the prospect that regulators continue to build cases against individual employees.
"I think what we are seeing is that the government's mortgage fraud task force appears to be more aggressively focused on mortgage origination claims," Joshua Rosner, a banking analyst at Graham Fisher & Co., said in a Monday telephone interview. "There are probably going to be more origination suits," he added.
Rosner, however, argued that the bigger picture of JPMorgan's settlement may be the firm's weak earnings outlook.
"After the dust settles there will be more dust," Rosner said, referring to JPMorgan's stagnant growth and uncertainty surrounding the bank's ability to grow revenue through new loan originations.

It's official: Disney is making stand alone Star Wars movies, based on existing characters from the franchise, but unrelated to the upcoming trilogy from J.J. Abrams. They're being written by Lawrence Kasdan (The Empire Strikes Back) and Simon Kinberg (X-Men: Days of Future Past). And while Disney hasn't made an official announcement yet, we're hearing rumors that Yoda is first.
Not who we would have picked. Well, not by his lonesome. (See #5 on the list for details.)
Few franchises are as densely populated as the Star Wars movies, and that's before you factor in all the novels, comic books, TV series and video games elaborating on the original storyline. Every character from the original trilogy had their own action figure, and their own backstory. The world of Star Wars has more tales than anyone could ever read, let alone write, and certainly more than they could possibly make movies about. But do they all deserve their own movie? No. Of course not. We like Lobot as much as the next guy, but watching a whole movie of him getting an endorsement deal with Skull Candy is completely unnecessary.
So we've put together a list of Nine Star Wars Characters Who Deserve Their Own Movie (well, eleven if you're getting technical), and even pitching some ideas for what we'd like to see on-screen, and which directors we'd like to make them. We're establishing a few rules as we go along, just so we're all on the same page: since Disney isn't taking the ancillary materials as gospel, so only characters who have appeared in the actual Star Wars movies can make the cut. We're also ignoring out of hand any major character whose original actor has sufficiently aged out of the part, since recasting Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Leia Organa or Lando Calrissian would just be too damned distracting.
Let's start by thinking outside the box with…
Dexter Jettster
Dexter Jettster's led an interesting life, supplying weapons to bounty hunters and mining on the planet of Subterrel before finally settling down to a cozy life running the aptly named "Dexter's Diner" on the planet of Coruscant. Never really "out of the game," he's been known to traffic in information, like the origins of Jango Fett's weapons, to Jedi like Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones. After the rise of the Galactic Empire, he supposedly became one of "the erased," a group who eliminated all trace of their identities to avoid the whole kerfuffle.
CraveOnline's Pitch: This might seem like a weird one to you, but think about it… a well-connected hero trying to stay out of conflict whilst still doing the right thing whenever possible? If that sounds like Casablanca to you, then you probably understand why we think Everybody Comes to Dexter's is a pretty good idea. Throwing Dexter Jettster into a tale of espionage and intrigue during the changeover between the democratically elected regime and Emperor Palpatine's tyrannical rule would be an excellent opportunity to explore just how the day-to-day life in the galaxy was affected by the Empire (something, it must be noted, that they've never really tackled so far in any of the movies). He's not much of a looker, that Dexter Jettster, so we imagine he'd be the emotional crux of the film, but technically the third or fourth lead to a newer cast of human rebels, imperial generals and maybe even a runaway Jedi youngling or two trying to escape Coruscant before their execution.
Proposed Director: Shawn Levy (Real Steel)
Raymus Antilles
Captain Raymus Antilles dates back to the very first scene of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope, when R2-D2 and C-3PO were passengers on his ship, the Tantive IV, during an assault by the Empire. A prominent figure on the late planet Alderaan, he was a key figure during The Clone Wars and a member of the Rebel Alliance until his murder by Darth Vader, and the owner of the franchise's famous droids between the prequel trilogy and original, "classic" trilogy. Captain Antilles' history has been spotted with inconsistencies, having been apparently cast too old during The Revenge of the Sith to plausibly be the same character in A New Hope, and according to the expanded universe he may have actually been separated from the popular droid characters for most of the 19 years between the trilogies.
[Editor's Note: No, we really couldn't find a more heroic picture. Sorry.]
CraveOnline's Pitch: Screw the expanded universe. We say Captain Antilles had those droids on him the whole time. R2-D2 and C-3PO aren't quite proactive enough to warrant an entire feature film of their own, but as sidekick characters to a heroic starship captain, they could return to their original popularity, commenting on the life-or-death situations that arise from rebelling against the Empire decades before it became popular. The story of Raymus Antilles would be free to go in any exciting direction, perhaps a Das Boot-inspired space war drama or even a rip-snorting Master & Commander adventure, provided those droids are allowed to do their thing opposite a hero on a new, epic mission.
Proposed Director: Justin Lin (Fast Five)
Darth Maul
Everyone loves Darth Maul, but that must be because he looks cool and does backflips because we know jack squat about this particular Dark Lord of the Sith. His storyline was expanded in the books and comics, but not very much. He was Emperor Palpatine's first apprentice, and he got killed off in the first movie, but we assume he did some cool stuff before that.
CraveOnline's Pitch: We prefer keeping Darth Maul an intergalactic man of mystery, so we think he'd be best suited for a balls-to-the-wall, action-packed, mission-centric action movie in which Emperor Palpatine assigns him a seemingly impossible task to prove himself. Darth Maul cuts a swath through armies of alien opponents – each of whom seem, at least, to be worse villains than Maul himself – in a pulse-pounding, highly choreographed thriller nestled snugly in the galaxy's greyest moral areas.
Proposed Director: Gareth Evans (The Raid: Redemption)
Wedge Antilles
Wedge Antilles (no relation to Raymus) was the only X-wing pilot to survive the original Star Wars trilogy, besides Luke Skywalker of course. As such, he's earned a pretty legendary status amongst fans of the franchise, a badass whose story has never been told… on film. In the expanded universe, we've learned that Wedge Antilles went on to many other wars after the Rebellion, and only joined in the first place after the Empire killed his girlfriend, prompting him to steal a starfighter and exact revenge on her murderers.
CraveOnline's Pitch: Well, that's two movies right there, isn't it? A post-trilogy war story about an ace pilot accepting greater responsibility in the war effort against a mighty foe sounds not unpleasingly like Rick Hunter's storyline in "Robotech," and could work out just as well. But then there's Wedge Antilles' origin story, a darker, action-packed vengeance film about a rebel pilot using a stolen Headhunter-class starship and taking the fight to the Empire solo. Frankly, either would work, but it might be stronger to do both at the same time, with the darker flashbacks informing a larger-scale war film in which Wedge does battle with the remnants of the Empire, one of whom turns out to have been actually involved in his true love's death years before.
Proposed Director: Gore Verbinski (The Pirates of the Caribbean)
Mace Windu and Yoda
The former Master of the Jedi Order Mace Windu was played in the prequel trilogy by Samuel L. Jackson, and was a prominent figure in the Clone Wars until his apparent death at the hands of Emperor Palpatine, aka Darth Sidious. We've seen him in action at the Battle of Geonosis, but his cinematic adventures to date have been limited to a supporting role as a Jedi General, offering advice but generally staying off the front lines of combat.
And Yoda is a Yoda. He's old and good with the Force and kinda talks weird. Everyone loves him because he's awesome and stuff.
CraveOnline's Pitch: Samuel L. Jackson has already said he wants to come back to the franchise, hypothesizing that Mace Windu survived the murder attempt and gone into hiding, much like Yoda. That's all well and good, but we think Mace Windu is better suited for yet another prequel – this time to the entire prequel trilogy – showing the Jedi at the height of his powers. We also think this would be the perfect vehicle for Yoda's return as well, even though he's supposedly getting his own solo movie (if the rumors are to believed). Mace Windu and Yoda as young(-er) Jedi, taking on the galaxy for the first time, together at least, as a mismatched buddy cop movie against the backdrop of Star Wars is the perfect opportunity to expand on both of their characters, and the history of the Republic, without incorporating any of the troublesome prequel trilogy content.
Proposed Director: David Koepp (Premium Rush)
You guys know Chewbacca, right? This Wookiee was Han Solo's stalwart hetero-lifemate throughout the original Star Wars trilogy, proving himself in friendship and battle time and again. Though a beloved character, and the recipient of a prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award from MTV (back when that meant something), Chewbacca hasn't been at the center of a live-action Star Wars story since the atrocious "Star Wars Holiday Special." The time has come to correct that.
CraveOnline's Pitch: Yes, he's a member of the core cast, but unlike Luke, Leia and Han, if they had to recast Chewbacca you'd probably never even know it until the credits rolled. He was active in the original Clone Wars (Wookiees live a very, very long time), but more interestingly, he was supposedly enslaved between the two cinematic trilogies before leading an uprising that would eventually tie into his introduction to Han Solo. We like the idea of Chewbacca as a prisoner leading a rebellion against the Empire, with great potential for intriguing supporting cast members and a story that combines Gladiator with Cool Hand Chewie. Triumph over adversity, Star Wars-style.
Proposed Director: Rupert Wyatt (Rise of the Planet of the Apes)
Tag & Bink
Tag Greenley and Bink Otauna were untalented Jedi younglings whose attempt to fix their grades accidentally erased the planet Kamino from the Jedi Archives. They ran away, bumped into Anakin Skywalker, and fed him all those crappy pick-up lines in Attack of the Clones to help him score with Padme. Their misadventures from found them taking various important, but previously unseen, roles in the original Star Wars trilogy, filling in a bunch of plot holes along the way.
CraveOnline's Pitch: We've been sticking to characters already introduced in the Star Wars movies so far, but Tag & Bink were technically always there, even if we never knew their names before. The original comic book, written by Kevin Rubio (who also created the popular Star Wars/"COPS" parody Troops), was a takeoff on Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, which showed how two normal guys wove in and out of Shakespeare's Hamlet, and we think doing the same thing with the original trilogy – Forrest Gump-ing two new, hilarious and affable new characters into the mix – is a great idea.
Proposed Director: Kevin Rubio (Troops)
Darth Vader
You know who he is.
CraveOnline's Pitch: Darth Vader is one of the greatest movie villains of all time… in the original Star Wars trilogy. Love 'em or hate 'em, the prequel trilogy diminished Vader's villainy by making him a relatable, if whiny, pop culture figure. A film set between Episodes III and IV, showing Darth Vader once again as a dangerous, faceless villain throughout the galaxy, navigating politics and black ops missions for Emperor Palpatine and succumbing to the absolute depths of the Dark Side is just what we need to restore the character to his former glory as one of cinema's great all-time badasses.
Proposed Director: Pete Travis (Dredd)
Boba Fett
The greatest bounty hunter in the galaxy, the most popular bounty hunter on Earth. Always a figure of intense mystery before the prequel trilogy told us he's a clone of another bounty hunter, Jango Fett, who – like his progeny – died anticlimactically.
CraveOnline's Pitch: Captain America: The First Avenger director Joe Johnston has publicly stated that he wants to make a Boba Fett movie. We say just let him do whatever he wants, but really, we just want a Luc Besson-style solo adventure with Boba Fett taking a case, kicking ass at it, and eventually revealing via flashback that he crawled out of that stupid Sarlacc Pit from Return of the Jedi. Dude got knocked in there BY ACCIDENT. The Fett deserved better…
UPDATE: …and it looks like he might get it. Apparently, Fett — owner of the galaxy's coolest Vette — is getting one of the first two Star Wars spin-off films, along with his Empire prey Han Solo. Well, that didn't take long, did it?
Proposed Director: Joe Johnston (Captain America: The First Avenger)

text: rpiller 839 Report post Posted May 30, 2013 I'm playing around with the component design. This is for just testing/trying out so nothing too serious. My components have events as outputs and functions as inputs. I want to stay very strict to decoupling so in no situation is a component to know about ANY other component inside itself. Instead the games created with this design would have a central place that does all the hooking up of events to functions between all components to create the actual flow of the game. An easy example would be having a Health component attached to a player game object that has an event called OnHealthUpdated. Then having a HUD component that has a function called HealthUpdated. Create the 2 objects, attach their components and hookup the players OnHealthUpdated to the huds HealthUpdated() function and now everytime the players health components is changed it'll fire this event which will tell the hud component to update the display of health with the value that was passed to the event & function. That's easy and there are many components like this. However when I get into enemy/player interaction things get a little more fuzzier in my head. My enemy component can do a bounding box check to see what models are all this area. However, to keep to the decoupling I can't within the result query for "player" or anything like that. Remember this is more research of ways than, I need to make a game right now with this. So I'm looking for ideas around enemy/player interaction that is decoupled in their components. Ideally events need to be fired and functions need to be called from those events. The enemy has to somehow know the player from only events/functions linked. Each game object is just a generic class that stores a list of components. For some reason I'm hesitant to pass around GameObject pointers to events/function. Not sure if I have to get over that or what. :) In my example above I'm passing around a simple health value (int) and it seems less coupled than passing a GameObject*, but since GameObject* is so generic maybe it's ok? Maybe I should track ID's (long) for each GameObject and that's what gets passed around instead? Then when I create enemy components I can just pass it the player's ID so they know what they are looking for? Any ideas around this? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boris Johnson has voiced his support for a portable housing prototype to help solve the affordable housing crisis in London.
The Mayor of London visited the prototype at the YMCA in Wimbledon to meet Shantae Whyte, a YMCA resident who has lived in the Y:Cube for a week.
He said: "I think it's lovely. I think it's terrific. The tenant is thrilled with it and that's the most important thing for me."
The Y:Cube is a 280 sq ft house containing a bedroom, kitchen/living room and bathroom.
Each unit costs £30,000 to build and will be let for £140 a week - 65 per cent lower than the market rate.
Mr Johnson said: "This is a very interesting idea. We're talking to the YMCA about how to do this and we're very happy to help, but the big mission is building hundreds of thousands more houses.
"It's so robust, I'd be surprised if this wasn't around for a very long time."
The houses can stand alone, or be stacked to create bigger housing blocks, the first of which could appear in Mitcham by the end of the year.
The Mayor said he is optimistic about achieving his target of building 400,000 more affordable homes in the capital after a meeting with his "housing people" earlier this afternoon.
His visit comes as average house prices in the area have soared to £617,000, forcing public service workers evicted from homes owned by the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) out of the borough.
Mr Johnson said: "I'm very confident that we will be able to find them fantastic accommodation elsewhere, not necessarily in one of these, but elsewhere."
The YMCA has halted plans to build its own block of flats as part of a controversial redevelopment of the site, which included a 24-storey tower.
"Living here was lovely": Y:Cube resident Shantae Whyte
Richard James, chief executive of YMCA London South West, said: "We'll listen to local needs and to what local people have said and we don't have a specific proposal for that.
"We're working on the numbers and focusing on housing need and how we can respond through this housing scheme in Mitcham and for Merton this is great."
Mr Johnson said: "I think you've got to be careful about where you put very tall buildings and you wouldn't want to do it if it was out of keeping with the area."

Richard A. Clarke, former White House advisor, counterterrorism expert and bestselling author of "Against All Enemies," will serve as the keynote speaker at the Gala Dinner presented by the Massachusetts Bar Association on Nov. 1. The association's hallmark event will take place at the recently opened InterContinental Hotel located on Boston's waterfront.
Over the course of an unprecedented 11 consecutive years of White House service, Clarke worked for seven presidents and devoted three decades to combating the terrorist threat to America. Clarke is the author of the New York Times best-seller "Against all Enemies: Inside America's War on Terror," as well as the newly released novel entitled "Breakpoint."
He currently serves as chairman of Good Harbor Consulting LLC, advising clients on a range of issues including corporate-security risk management, information-security technology, dealing with the federal government on security and IT issues, and counterterrorism. Clarke is also an on-air consultant with ABC News and director of the Hart-Rudman Task Force on emergency responders.
The Nov. 1 Gala Dinner will carry the momentum of the successful March 2 Annual Dinner, which featured a keynote address from National Public Radio's Nina Totenberg. The MBA typically hosts its Annual Dinner in the spring to coincide with the MBA Annual Conference; however, this year the association will bring a new model to the presentation of its signature events.
Beginning in the fall, four MBA signature events will be presented separately throughout the 2007-08 association year. The Nov. 1 Gala Dinner will follow the Oct. 11 Bench-Bar Symposium, which will take place at the John Adams Courthouse. Two events will then be held in the spring—the MBA's Access to Justice Luncheon at the JFK Library and Museum on March 6 and the Continuing Legal Education Conference, a one-day event with CLE offerings and plenary sessions, to be held at the Sheraton Boston Hotel on April 28.
For more information on the Nov. 1 Gala Dinner or any of the four MBA signature events, call the MBA's Member Services Center at (617) 338-0530.

Internet Baseball Awards
NL Top Manager
For all 2013 voting results released thus far, look here. You can also view the IBA's rules and history.
Given Pittsburgh's storybook season, there should be little surprise that Clint Hurdle was named this year's Internet Baseball Awards Top Manager. It's the second time that Hurdle has been honored as the internet's choice for the best NL manager, as he previously brought home the virtual hardware in 2007, when he led the Rockies to a Wild Card berth and their first World Series appearance.
Hurdle took over as Pittsburgh's manager in place of John Russell following a 57-105 season in 2010—the franchise's worst showing since 1954. The Pirates improved to 72-90 in Hurdle's first year at the helm and 79-83 the next, but the club was still without a winning season in two decades after consecutive years of stellar starts were followed by second-half collapses.
Despite the late-season swoons, Pittsburgh's front office showed its faith in Hurdle last offseason by extending its skipper through the 2014 season. The Pirates went on to finish the 2013 season with a 94-68 record and clinch the no. 1 Wild Card spot in the National League. Playing in front of a city that hadn't seen playoff baseball since 1992, the Pirates dispatched Cincinnati in the NL Wild Card game before falling to the eventual NL champion Cardinals in five games.
In September, Travis Sawchik of the Pittsburgh Tribune wrote about the Pirates' aggressive defensive alignments and Hurdle's growth as a manager since his time in Colorado. After being fired by the Rockies midway through the 2009 season, Hurdle, who was widely considered an old-school, 20th-century skipper, became more openly accepting of sabermetrics and worked with MLB Network as a studio analyst for the remainder of 2009.
"It was definitely a transformation in understanding the game. It has been for me for the last 10 years, especially the last five years," Hurdle told Sawchik. "You have to get involved in the information. You've got to read. You've got to study. You can't just stick your head in the sand and just say, 'It doesn't exist. It doesn't count. It doesn't make sense.' "
Since Neal Huntington took over as Pittsburgh's GM in 2007, the front office has been one of the more sabermetric-friendly in the league, but as Ben Lindbergh has written repeatedly, that means little if the manager hasn't bought into the philosophy and isn't willing to go through with plans as designed. Fortunately for the Pirates, Hurdle has soaked in the information fed to him by the organization's analytics department and has been open to implementing strategies that Huntington and Dan Fox have put in motion.
One of those strategies is defensive shifts, for which the Pirates laid down the foundation in recent years. They went full throttle with the strategy in 2013, implementing 494 shifts, the third most in the NL and over four times as many as they had in 2012 (according to Baseball Info Solutions). The defense ranked fifth in baseball in park-adjusted defensive efficiency this season, up three spots from 2012 and significantly ahead of their placement in years prior. In 2010, the Pirates were second-to-last in park-adjusted defensive efficiency and were 21st in 2011.
Hurdle received 385 of the 546 first-place votes, and St. Louis manager Mike Matheny garnered 90 votes to finish runner-up for the second straight season. Don Mattingly went from the hot seat in May to an NL West title and collected 39 votes for third place. Fredi Gonzalez finished fourth after leading the Braves to their first NL East division crown since 2005. Rounding out the top five was last year's IBA Top Manager, Davey Johnson. The recently fired Dusty Baker finished a distant ninth despite the Reds securing a wild-card berth.

wsjudd - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkLooks like there's a stray bit of punctuation in here:
"The drive is the Neutron, and the controller maker? Link A Media Devices" Reply
AnotherGuy - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkReally after so much information in the article... thats what you have to say... the Punctuation?
I am afraid people wanna see some relevant thoughts and opinions about the info on the article not ur stupid comments on punctuation. These articles are about technology not your English 101 u take at school.
Really tired of the same comments on almost every article. Reply
gmallen - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkThey certainly don't want to see inane, off-topic troll-bait like your comment. If you're so distressed by these comments, don't read them or comment about them. Get a life instead. Reply
AnotherGuy - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkwhen he or others who post same comments see my insane comment, they might realize that they are actually annoying and stop doing it. Reply
Mr. Pedantic - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkWe can only hope you will recognise the same thing and stop posting useless rubbish. Reply
seapeople - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkNot to feed the trolls, but I agree with this troll somewhat. The proposed punctuation correction wasn't even necessarily correct. Reply
Rishi100 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkLet it be so.... attractive, that I jump on my second SSD. Reply
Bmadd89 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkOn page 1 you comment saying the DRAM in the Neutron is 256MB but in the graph its 128MB Reply
XZerg - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkI would really suggest that you keep the contenders consistent across all the benches/tests. It just feels wrong to see Product X in few benches and then missing in other, point in case OCZ products missing in the power consumption. I am sure that you have their numbers but for some reason those are skipped. Reply
mayankleoboy1 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkwith many controllers tying at ~ 500MBPS, are we reaching the theoretical speeds of NAND flash? Meaning controllers can get better, but speeds wont increase much?
What are the theoretical speeds of NAND flash? Reply
qwertymac93 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkHas more to do with SATA than NAND. Reply
SlyNine - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkThats Sata 3 limits. Not NAND flash. Reply
surt - Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - linkNAND can go faster. That's why products like the fusionio go to 2Gbps or higher. 500 is just the most you can get across a single sata3 connector. Reply
B3an - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkWhen will the Plextor M5 Pro review be up?
I've seen some other reviews popping up and it's looking very good, maybe the best SSD around, but these other reviews are not as detailed as Anandtech reviews. Reply
Kristian Vättö - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkSome odd behavior with the M5 Pro came up which has delayed the review a bit. I'll try to have it ready in the next few days, then posting it is up to Anand. Reply
B3an - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkThanks Kristian... and i hope you mention what this odd behaviour was in the review. Reply
Movieman420 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkToo soon for a review...a pre-view maybe Anand?
M5P will do for now tho..;) Reply
jwcalla - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkAt this point it seems that there is little, if any, real-world difference in the latest gen drives of similar NAND. Reply
seapeople - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkAgreed. Crazy how everyone and his brother now has a blazing fast SSD out there that puts the x25-g2 to shame. Just three years ago we were happy when an SSD controller came out that didn't have stuttering issues. Reply
maximumGPU - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkAgree with some of the previous comments, we need a comparison with the latest Plextor M5 pro.
Btw Is the M5 pro the first to use Marvell's new controller, or is it the vertex 4? Reply
PommieB - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkThe Vertex 4 uses the 9145 controller, which as enterprise origins and was used by OCZ in there latest PCIe ssd drives, OCZ was obviously impressed with the controller to use it as there re-branded Everest controllers in the Vertex 4 and other ssd drives, so yes the Plextor M5 Pro is first ssd drive to have the 9187 Marvell controller. Reply
maximumGPU - Tuesday, August 21, 2012 - linkthanks :) Reply
DukeN - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkFor those of us hoping to put 3 or 4 of these in our systems..
Please and thanks. Reply
Zap - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkWhy does Corsair (and also Newegg) call it SATA 3?
Proper terminology is to call it "SATA Revision 3.0" or "SATA 6Gb/s" and to NOT use "SATA III" or "SATA 3.0." This is because SATA II was often marketed as SATA 3Gb/s or SATA 300, so "3" is associated with the slower speed. Reply
Beenthere - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkMost consumers are interested in reliable, compatible, hassle-free PC hardware not the half-baked trick-of-the-week rushed out the door for huge profits. PC hardware review sites lose credibility when they hype half-baked products and gloss over obvious defects or down-play their significance.
Many companies are quite successful selling quality, reliable products and providing excellent customer service - all at affordable prices. In fact that use to be the norm in the U.S. until some unscrupulous CEOs decided that they could reap more money in annual bonuses by shipping crap products and pretending there were no issues or defects.
Unfortunately for Corsair in recent years they have jumped on the growth-at-all-cost bandwagon by using contract suppliers. Corsair's numerous product lines are filled with documented defects be it SSDs, PSUs, H2O CPU coolers, etc. At one time I recommended Corsair RAM but even that seems to have dropped in reliability and compatibility recently so I no longer recommend any of their current products. Reply
Shadowmaster625 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkIdle power consumption is stupidly bad. Samsung SSD830 is the reigning champion by far. It may not be the fastest, but it is competitive speed wise, and its low idle power just continues to own the competition. I wouldnt even consider any other drive for a notebook. Reply
Paapaa125 - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkI have no clue why you keep on presenting the same data in two different charts: average data rate and disk busy time. Only one is enough. Showing the other serves no purpose at all so please pick one of them and start using it. Thanks! Reply
Mastadon - Monday, August 20, 2012 - linkWhat kind of TRIM does the Corsair controller use? Is it garbage collection after the fact, or on-the-fly? Reply
Mr Perfect - Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - linkI've always been under the impression that Garbage Collection, as defined by the drive makers, is not TRIM. Garbage Collection is done solely inside the drive by the controller with no regard for what the data in the flash is or what the OS is doing. TRIM is done through commands sent from the OS to the drive to tell it what flash is holding valid data, and what flash is no longer needed and can be erased. I think some drives even do both GC and TRIM. If he's saying TRIM, I'd take it to be the later case. Reply
phimac10 - Tuesday, August 21, 2012 - linkThanks for a good insight in the SSD world. Reply
name99 - Tuesday, August 21, 2012 - link"Load power consumption is much more competitive. It's not what I would consider low, but it's not unreasonably high either."
Well I guess we all have different opinions...
IMHO the only number that matters is whether the maximum power draw (usually sequential writes) is below 2.5W. Below 2.5W and you know you can use it safely in a USB2 enclosure. Above that and it will appear to work but fail at random times.
You might think you only want to use this drive INSIDE a laptop. OK, if you are SURE of that. My experience is that drives move with time from one location to another, and it sucks if I have to throw them away when they're still good.
You might think you will only want to use this drive in a USB 3 enclosure (and now you have 4.5W to play with). OK.... but again life's going to suck if for some reason you want to use that drive on a USB2 machine.
IMHO SSD architects are behaving like Pentium4 architects, doing what they like while ignoring power issues. This is a path that does not end well. We'll already at the point where nobody gives a fsck about the difference between a streaming rate of 300MB/s and 330 MB/s --- but people DO care about battery life, and they do care about devices that are gratuitously heating up their rooms and warming their palms.
At some point point, these architects need to grow up and follow Intel down the path of speed at reasonable power, not speed at any power whatsoever. Reply
KAlmquist - Monday, August 27, 2012 - linkYes, it is disappointed to see SSD designs get worse over time in terms of power consumption. The Samsung 830 does a good job of holding down power usage when idle, but can draw more than the 4.5W limit of USB 3.0 when busy. Reply
dishayu - Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - linkCan we have the Plextor M5 Pro review please? I can't make up my mind if i should just pick up a Samsung 830 or wait for M5 Pro. Reply
Mr Perfect - Wednesday, August 22, 2012 - linkI know this sounds archaic, but could you throw a mechanical laptop drive into the power charts? At this point in time I honestly have no idea if these SSDs even have a power advantage over a modern spinner. It's hard to tell if a "bad" SSD is still better then a good mechanical, battery wise. Reply
Visual - Monday, August 27, 2012 - linkUnfortunately I do not have any media that I can link. ;) Reply
killabee_me - Wednesday, September 19, 2012 - linkHi Anand,
The test results didn't make it into Anandtech SSD Bench for some reason.
Could you make sure they get there?
Thanks. Reply

About the Artist
Ellen Giggenbach
I was born in Bavaria, Germany. When I was 5, my father's fascination with volcanoes bought us all the way to the other side of the world, to New Zealand. I spent a wonderful childhood exploring thermal regions with my dad and sewing and crafting with my mother and sister. In my teens we moved to Vienna in Austria for 3 years where I developed my interest in graphic art. We returned to New Zealand where I continued to study and was awarded a New Zealand, Diploma with Distinction in Design.
I have now settled in the lovely little seaside village of Eastbourne in Wellington with my husband and two sons.
During my career I have enjoyed creating artwork for packaging and advertising, illustrating children's books, designing clothing, stationery, bags and a variety of home wares as well as exhibiting in several art galleries.
My home is filled with a mix of 1950's treasures, handcrafts and European folk art. My beautiful surroundings give me joy and inspiration to create my cut paper art. I enjoy featuring symbols of happiness, joy and love as well as depicting quirky characters such as dogs and birds in my work.
I start each piece of art with just a feel for the end result. I don't like to draw too much. To keep the idea fresh I cut, place, move and often exchange a variety of graphic shapes, which I cut from art paper that I have previously painted with acrylics in a large variety of beautiful colours and hues. In a way, developing each piece is like creating an exciting new puzzle.

|Walter W. Mosher Jr., PhD
Walter Mosher is cofounder and director of Precision Dynamics Corp., (PDC; San Fernando, CA). Dr. Mosher received a BS in engineering in 1956, an MS in 1962, and a PhD in 1971 - all from UCLA. Dr. Mosher was a 22-year-old engineering student at UCLA when he launched PDC with three investors in 1956. The company developed what was then a revolutionary innovation - a single-piece patient wristband: no parts and no tools necessary. By the 1970s, PDC needed cash to grow, so the founding shareholders sold the business to a division of W. R. Grace & Co. By July 1981, Dr. Mosher and his childhood friend, Robert Kraemer (current PDC board director and secretary), bought PDC back from W. R. Grace in a leveraged buyout and soon moved to a 57,000-sq-ft facility in San Fernando. Dr. Mosher holds multiple patents in wristband technology. He has been a member of MD&DI's Editorial Advisory Board since 1988.
