New York City -- Some landlords, vendors and other unsecured creditors of Blockbuster are objecting to Blockbuster's plan to sell itself because they fear they won't be paid what they are owed, according to the Associated Press.
A hearing to approve the stalking horse bid and auction was originally scheduled for Wednesday, but was postponed late Tuesday until March 10 while the judge considers the objections.
On Feb. 21, Blockbuster, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September, agreed to be bought out of bankruptcy by a group of its debt holders for $290 million. The offer, from Cobalt Video Holdco LLC, is a "stalking horse" bid. It would open an auction process for other investors who could pay more.
The Cobalt group includes funds managed by Monarch Alternative Capital LP, Owl Creek Asset Management LP, Stonehill Capital Management LLC and Varde Partners. They all hold secured Blockbuster debt.
Investor Carl Icahn and his Icahn Partners LP could make a rival bid for the company, according to the report. Icahn was part of the group of investors, which also included all of the Cobalt bidders, that hold 80% of Blockbuster's secured debt and supported the chain when it filed for bankruptcy protection in September.
On Monday, a committee of unsecured creditors filed an objection with the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District in New York stating that the original bankruptcy protection reorganization plan included $125 million in so-called debtor-in-possession financing that would help Blockbuster pay back its creditors. But if the stalking horse bid goes through they say creditors will be left in the lurch.

If you're unsure about what Cloud Computing is, you are probably among the 95% of people that are already using cloud services, like online banking and social networks, but don't realize it.
The "cloud" is a set of different types of hardware and software that work collectively to deliver many aspects of computing to the end-user as an online service.
Cloud Computing is the use of hardware and software to deliver a service over a network (typically the Internet). With cloud computing, users can access files and use applications from any device that can access the Internet.
An example of a Cloud Computing provider is Google's Gmail. Gmail users can access files and applications hosted by Google via the internet from any device.

TAMPA, Fla. – The Saint Leo volleyball team closed out its portion of the Red Elephant Café South Region Crossover in winning fashion as the Lions defeated West Georgia 3-1 (20-25, 25-18, 25-16, 25-18) at the University of Tampa's Martinez Center on Saturday afternoon.
The victory proved to be a coming out party of sorts for junior Meghan Donovan, who was dominant in the middle as she hammered down 16 kills and hit an outstanding .789 in four sets. One kill shy of Donovan was fellow junior Jordan Sisson, who tallied 15 and hit .519 for the match.
As a team, the Lions (10-10) hit .403 overall and were successful on 61 kills. The Saint Leo defense split 18 blocks and notched 21 overall. The Lions also held West Georgia (10-13) to just a .233 attack average.
The win brings the Lions back to .500 as they prepare to tackle the second half of their Sunshine State Conference season.
Saint Leo will start that second tour through the SSC when they travel to south Florida to face Lynn University on Friday night. The match is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. in Boca Raton.

LOS ANGELES -- Growing up, Alfonso Cuaron wanted to be two things: a director and astronaut.
He's been the previous for years, but after Gravity -- or, in particular, one scene from it -- audiences may buy he landed the second job, too.
Since it barnstormed the Toronto Film Festival earlier this fall, Cuaron's space odyssey has reached the stratosphere with critics, who hail it as a visual game changer. The Wall Street Journal called it the "most beautiful popcorn movie ever made" and "shows us cinema's future."
Much of the praise centers on the astounding 13-minute, uncut opening of the Sandra Bullock-George Clooney film. The sequence, which sets up the entire movie with a scene of satellite debris crippling a space shuttle, marks one of the longest "tracking shots" in Hollywood history, and the first of that length in 3-D.
But the men behind the shot had no idea they were tinkering with trailblazing. Just headaches.
"I have to say that I was a bit naïve; I thought making the film would be a lot simpler," Cuarón says. "Yes, I knew it would require a certain amount of tricks, but it was not until we started trying conventional techniques that I realized in order to do the film the way I wanted to do it, we were going to have to create something entirely new."
Which became the headache largely inherited by Emmanuel Lubezki, the director of photography for Gravity and prior Cuarón films. While Lubezki had worked on the tracking shot from Cuaron's 2006 film Children of Men, this one required not only that he orchestrate a 13-minute scene without a cut. He and crews had to invent virtual sets and cameras to capture stars dangling in orb
"We couldn't just hang the actors on wires because after a few minutes it would show the stress on their faces" Lubezki says of the film, 95% of which occurs in space and in zero gravity. "And it's not like we could shoot in space."
So Lubezki began a process called "previs," short for pre-visualization, in which he could digitally storyboard the scene with animation, like a Pixar film. Through the animation, Lubezki choreographed the scene so that the camera could follow astronauts as they drifted around their craft hundreds of miles above the Earth.
He then shot Bullock and Clooney (or their face and arms) for 13 minutes of dialogue before digitally painting them into space suits.
"Alfonso loves long shots because it makes you feel like you're really in that world," Lubezki says. And even with the aid of computers, he says, "you're still talking about something very complicated. That shot must have taken years, and it's the last one we finished."
Ironically, the reward is if few people notice the feat.
"We really don't want people thinking about the tricks we used," he says. "We want them to feel like they're in outer space."

The 75th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass, is being observed on campus
Names of Holocaust victims are being read from 10:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. | November 7, 2013
On the night of Nov. 9, 1938, the sound of breaking glass throughout Nazi Germany was so prevalent that it came to be called Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass. That's when the Nazis orchestrated the destruction of Jewish property, burning of synagogues and mass deportation of thousands of Polish Jews living in Germany to gauge the reaction of the Western world.
When none came, the Nazis were emboldened to launch the systematic destruction of Jewish life and Jewish civilization. It was a year before the start of World War II and before the Holocaust was put into place, but it was a harrowing time for the Jewish communities of Germany and Austria.
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of that terrible event, the Xavier community today, Friday, Nov. 8, is reading the names of victims of the Holocaust in the hope that by bringing attention to the Night of Broken Glass, the world will attune its ears to the sound of broken glass around the world—the tragedies of genocide and destruction that are unfolding even today.
The event takes place in front of the Gallagher Student Center from 10:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Rabbi Abie Ingber, Executive Director of the Center for Interfaith Community Engagement, is setting up a large window with the word Jude painted on it in yellow. The window will sit in a pile of broken glass as Xavier students read the names of children who were murdered in the Holocaust. Passersby will be asked to wear a lapel pin with a glass shard glued to it.
"If we had heard the shattering of glass in 1938, might the events of 1939-1945 have been different?" said Ingber, the son of Holocaust survivors. "We are witnessing the 'breaking of glass' today in the tragic suicides of young gay students bullied to death, sexual violence against women, the issue of slavery in our modern world, Darfur, and elsewhere."

Chris Kamara
Football Expert & Columnist @chris_kammy
Bossing it?
Michu's magnificence, Wenger's worries and Benitez's burdens - plus more. Kammy's back...
Last Updated: 03/12/12 1:33pm
Every Saturday, Chris Kamara heads to stadiums up and down the country to deliver his unique match reports for Soccer Saturday.
On Sundays you can see him back in the Sky Sports studios as he brings you all of the highlights as well as in-depth analysis of all the action on Goals on Sunday.
And then on Mondays you can find Kammy right here on skysports.com as he brings you his views on the Premier League weekend.
Read below for his thoughts on Arsene Wenger's worries, Michu's magnificent impact and the Darren Bent situation at Villa...
Arsene Wenger's problems aren't all of his own making
Things don't look good at Arsenal at all right now - I've never known the fans turn on Arsene Wenger like they have done in the last few weeks. He's done so much for them and they've got great memories of what he's achieved there, but now they seem to have lost a bit of belief. That's understandable as this is the worst start they've had since he arrived but you can't keep losing the quality of players he's lost and then expect to bring in someone as good off the production line. You can try, but it's not quite happened.
On the face of it things do look diabolical but let's not forget that Arsenal have had problems. Jack Wilshere's time out injured was a big loss to the team, Olivier Giroud has not quite settled yet, Lukas Podolski is in his first season in the Premier League. Should Arsene go into the transfer window and buy or does he let the ones that he's already got settle? To be fair to them, they've got enough midfielders and attackers; maybe they just need another good defender.
Michu and Laudrup are taking Swansea to the next level
There's no doubt Michael Laudrup has improved Swansea. When you take over from a manager who has done well, you're normally on a hiding to nothing because if things don't go well everyone bemoans the fact that the previous manager left. But nobody down at Swansea now is disappointed that Brendan Rodgers left. That's not a reflection on Brendan, but testimony to how well Laudrup has done. He's improved them so much through the quality of the players that he's brought in, who have all settled into the Premier League like they've been playing here for years!
Michu has got to be one of the players of the season so far - and don't forget he cost £2m. You can't get a player out of the Championship for that! If you went and enquired about Charlie Austin at Burnley, they'll come back and ask for £5-7m for starters. That helps to put Michu's price tag into some sort of context. His second goal against Arsenal was top drawer. I know we had a bit of fun on Goals on Sunday at Tomas Rosicky's expense for not putting a challenge in, but the composure and class Michu showed to take his time and beat Wojciech Szczesny was brilliant to see.
I can understand why West Ham's equaliser was allowed to stand
To explain this one you've got to look at two incidents. West Ham had a goal ruled out earlier when in the build-up James Collins was ruled to have fouled Branislav Ivanovic by climbing all over him. In that incident Ivanovic has got his eyes on the ball and the only thing he's interested in is trying to win the header so the officials give a free-kick against Collins. But in the Carlton Cole goal, Ivanovic turned away from the ball and looked at goal, so then he's backing in towards the striker to prevent him from getting a header in. So that's probably the reason why they gave that one. On another day it could have been given as a foul but I'm giving the referee the benefit of the doubt; he probably saw that Ivanovic's eyes weren't on the ball so when Cole went right over the top of him - and has almost got him in a headlock - he's given him the benefit of the doubt.
None of which helps Rafa Benitez! This might just be a case of 'right club, wrong time'. The problem is that they sacked Roberto Di Matteo and there's barely any break before Rafa's walking through the door with a big smile on his face. Now don't get me wrong, Rafa's a good manager but you've got to give the club a cooling off period when you sack someone like Roberto - even if that's just two or three days. The situation was bound to be raw for the club and the fans. There's no doubt that Rafa will get results but I doubt the fans will change their tune about him.
Redknapp can work his magic - but Bent might do a disappearing act
I had a good chat with Harry Redknapp at QPR on Saturday and it's fair to say he's concerned - he's taken on a job that isn't going to be easy. It's more of a job for Harry Houdini - QPR are the equivalent of being in a bag with half-a-dozen locks on it at the bottom of the ocean, but somehow they've got to get out of trouble. I saw concern when I was chatting to him but I think he knows there's still a long way to go in the season and there's a 31-day window coming up when he can get reinforcements. He's turned things around before and I'm sure he's convinced he can do it again.
The Darren Bent situation at Villa is a strange one but they are not making loads and loads of chances. Having watched them on Saturday, I feel that Darren wouldn't have contributed much in that game because there would have been hardly any opportunities for him to pounce on. There were three strikes on goal in the first half and they had one more in the second half. Paul Lambert must be thinking 'we're not strong enough at the moment; we're not dominating football matches, so I can live without Darren Bent' and maybe he's thinking that if Darren does leave in the window, that will allow him to bring in who he wants to bring in. Let's not forget that Paul inherited Darren Bent, he didn't bring him into the club.
It's time to give Tony Pulis and Stoke the credit they deserve
When I was at Stoke, playing West Brom was the big derby game. I know they've got Port Vale nearby but after that West Brom and Wolves were the two big games for them. So that was a massive game for the fans at the weekend and let's be honest, away wins are hard to come by for them at the minute.
Tony Pulis does a great job there and no matter what people say about the style and everything else like that you have to compete against everything in the Premier League, and that's what makes it as exciting and as entertaining as it is. If every team was the same, people might even start turning away from the game. Stoke are not as bad as people like to make out or seem to think they are.The one man who does appreciate Tony 100 per cent is the chairman Peter Coates. He's not going to listen to any rubbish. Those two are joined at the hip and doing good things.

WEPL Premier One
Bridgwater 219-7 (48ovs) beat Taunton St Andrews 216-5 (48ovs) by three wickets
BRIDGWATER'S series of last ball dramas continued at a packed Parks on Saturday as they squeezed home in yet another thriller to beat the relegation threatened Taunton St Andrew by three wickets.
Steve Davis (41no) and Cam Williams (19no) scored 26 runs off the last two overs to see their team home to yet another remarkable win in what has been a roller coaster season.
None of this would have been possible however, without an earlier superb 91 run partnership between Todd Barrett (65) and Kyron Devitt (42) on his first team debut.
The talented pair had dug the home side out of a hole at 39-4, with a calm and measured performance - with Dave Reading (3-45) doing the early damage, as Bridgwater set about chasing 217 to win off 48 overs, with two overs lost to each side because of a rain break.
Earlier, the Saints had been in considerable trouble themselves as excellent opening spells from Steffan Jones (2-28), the luckless Chris Skidmore, Andy Roberts and Devitt had seen the visitors struggle to 59-3 off 29 overs.
At this stage, Kevin Parsons retired injured with a serious leg injury, but this brought an aggressive Lloyd Alley to the crease to join Somerset's James Regan and the pair began to dominate proceedings as they put on a remarkable 163 off only 19 overs with a series of fiercely struck boundaries as Bridgwater's bowlers struggled to contain them.
Regan was eventually trapped in front by Andy Roberts for a hard hit 114, while Alley's 69 not out had come at better than a run a ball.
Bridgwater's earlier bowling efforts however, meant that this huge partnership only resulted in a par score on the excellent pitch and lightning outfield, which the home side were able to chase down in dramatic fashion in a match that had swung in all directions.
Next Saturday, Bridgwater travel to Weston while the table topping second team host Weston in a match that could see them crowned champions with two matches to go, if other results go their way. 1pm start.
They will be hoping that this will be the first part of a superb double, as they play Staplegrove in the Final of the SCB intermediate Cup at SCCC on Sunday September 7.

I wish i am the dove, stopped by Dundee,Scotland first,to say hi to you and your mum first and visit the the local for a a good dose of Scotland culture.
There are a lot of Scottish favor in the movie "BRAVE" that I had mentioned .
BTW, it is really hot here in Chicago,the corn field are at half the height;the condition soy beans in the fields are short and skinny; and the grass are golden brown. All these means the price of food for the year to come will be high.
Thanks again for such a thoughtful gesture,Gavin.
God bless.
See, even the pigeons want to come to Canada! Maybe you and your mom should come visit! Hugs! Nancy
P.S. Me? I will make it to Scotland one day. My grandfather was from Scotland and my grandmother from Wales, hence my red hair!
Hi Percy,
You would indeed be most welcome over here and I'd take you out for a "wee dram" o the good stuff and that would certainly get you in the mood for some Scottish culture!! Will calm the nerves nicely before you tackle your first Haggis!!
Looking forward to seeing Brave when it comes out here and it sounds good. No such weather issues here unfortunately, rain, rain followed by more rain and crops here are suffereing from too much rain damage. Many tattie crops amonmgst other have been ruined so we will be going through some agg inflation just like you guys will as well. Too much sun for you, not enough for us but the end result is the same for both, prices heading upwards, again, grrrr.... Saw last week on CNBC about your crop report not looking good for the year and they had a journo in a field in the midwest detailing the issue you mention with the corn crop, rubbish yields and all that. Fingers crossed next year will be better all round!
Stay cool and stay hydrated too!
Hi Nancy,
And you too would be most welcome over here!! Where in Scotland was your Grandad from? I'd love to go to Canada one day too, it sounds real good but a bit too hot for us Scots in your blistering summers I think!! Winter I could deal with though!! Ha!!
That is one smart pigeon though, instead of going home to the rain in England, it heads over to a brighter and warmer Canada! Smart Percy!!
PS - Red hair, that'll be the Scots in you!!!

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 16/3/2013 (1621 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
NEW YORK -- Last summer, Toronto nutritionist Max Sidorov was surfing the Web when he stumbled upon a video titled Making the Bus Monitor Cry. It showed a group of young boys aboard a school bus in upstate New York cruelly taunting the 68-year-old woman who was charged with supervising them. The boys call Karen Klein "ugly" and a "fat ass" and, yes, make her cry.
Sidorov felt moved to do something nice for this beleaguered woman he'd never met. He created a donation site on Indiegogo with the stated goal of raising $5,000 for Klein as a token of people's kindness. "Let's give her something she will never forget," he wrote to prospective donors. "A vacation of a lifetime!"
By the time Sidorov's funding drive ended a month later, more than 32,000 people had given a total of $703,168. Klein accepted the money and soon after retired from her bus monitor job. She gave $100,000 to establish the Karen Klein Anti-Bullying Foundation. She kept the rest.
When we watch the truly nasty scene that unfolded on the school bus that day, we all want to give Karen Klein a big hug. We might even, like Max Sidorov, want to send her on a lovely vacation. It seems much less obvious that we'd want to hand her $700,000.
Compare the 10 minutes of verbal abuse that Klein endures in this video to the ordeal of Lydia Tillman, a Colorado woman who was raped, savagely beaten, doused with bleach, and left for dead in an apartment her attacker had set on fire. Tillman survived after leaping out a second-storey window. She suffered a stroke, was put in a coma, and awoke five weeks later without speech or motor skills. Her brother launched an Indiegogo campaign that managed to raise a smidge more than its goal of $65,000. This money wasn't meant to fund a vacation for Tillman or to let her quit her job, but rather to pay for a surgery that would allow her to eat solid food again.
It's not my intention to create a hierarchy of deserving victims. But surely we can agree that, in hindsight, the monetary outpouring for Karen Klein seems disproportionate.
Donations reached $5,000 within the first two hours, according to Sidorov, and were up to $100,000 by the end of the first day. People who went to the web page could easily see that there was already more than enough money to send Karen Klein on 20 vacations. They didn't care. They just kept giving.
"When it got to $300,000," Sidorov recalls, "I thought, 'Hey, this is a lot of money,' and I posted on the Indiegogo page that maybe some percentage of the donations should go to anti-bullying initiatives." But that's not what the donors wanted to happen. "There was a big reaction. People said no. They wanted all the money to go to Karen."
Stephen Reicher is a psychology professor at Scotland's University of St Andrews. I asked him about the Karen Klein case. Why had 32,000 people eagerly pigpiled to help this one particular woman?
Reicher attributes the giving frenzy, in part, to concretization. "For an abstract idea to affect us," he says, "it often helps if it's turned into something concrete and embodied. To say lots of people are suffering is an abstract concept. To see this one woman suffering, and be able to help her, is more concrete."
Reicher suggests that the "archetypal elements" involved here played a role as well. As we watch the video, we might flash back to moments when we were bullied on a school bus. Or feel guilt about having bullied others. The video also pits strongly defined, archetypal personas in opposition to each other -- brash youth versus wise elder. (Max Sidorov thinks it's this juxtaposition of foulmouthed little kids and a weeping older woman that really messes with people's emotions.)
Is there something inherently different about crowd behaviour on the Internet? Certainly, material that might incite a crowd can spread faster and further via social media than it can offline. And Reicher argues that the web is especially suited to exerting "metaperceptual influence." Seeing lots of Facebook likes or retweets or charitable donations can guide our own actions.
John Suler, a psychology professor at Rider University, has studied "deindividuation" -- the loss of personal identity within groups. "Deindividuation happens online as well as offline," says Suler. "But there might be a tendency toward it online due to the enhanced opportunity for anonymity. Deindividuation unleashes the emotions and wishes below the surface of people. It can steer us toward punishment or altruism."

MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Saint Leo held onto a 2-1 lead early in the game, but the Pfeiffer University Falcons battled back to defeat the Lions 19-4 on a cold and snowy morning at N.E. Lefko Field in Misenheimer, N.C. The loss drops the Lions to a record of 0-3, while Pfeiffer, who received votes on the latest IWLCA DII Coaches Poll, stays perfect on their young season and advances their mark to 4-0.
Putting goals on the scoreboard for Saint Leo were Paige Leggio, Alix Murray, Stephanie Marran, and Cassie Miller. Alyssa Viscomi, Lauren Irish, and Allie Sheftall dished out assists on the day.
Brittany Millsap and Nicole Sirota Plotnikov saw time between the pipes for the Green and Gold. Millsap set aside four shots in the opening 22 minutes, while Sirota-Plotnikov closed out the remainder of the game with five saves while allowing only six goals in 38 minutes of play.
Leading the game in goals were Pfeiffer's Shannon Bonnel and Sarah Daly, with four apiece. A total of 10 Falcons contributed to the scoring efforts on the day, with Daly leading the team in overall points as she tallied three assists to her four goal performance.
Pfieffer got the game started with a goal from Daly three minutes into the contest, but Marran answered back 34 seconds later to knot the score at 1-1 with 26:25 on the clock. The Lions pulled ahead three minutes later, with Sheftall connecting a pass to Miller for a shot into the back of the net, giving Saint Leo a 2-1 advantage with 23:20 to go in the first half.
The Falcons were not about to back down, and rattled off five straight to gain a four goal advantage, 6-2, with 17:51 left in the first period. Irish found Leggio at the 16:21 mark to break the Falcon scoring streak, pulling Saint Leo to within three, 6-3, but Pfeiffer closed out the first half with eight unanswered goals to set the score at 14-3 at the half. The Falcons then went on to out-score Saint Leo 5-1 in the final 30 minutes of action for a final score of 19-4.
Saint Leo trailed on the shot count 35-11, as well as in the ground ball battle, 20-16. The Lions were successful on 12-of-16 clear attempts, and led the game in saves, 9-5. Saint Leo came up with eight draw controls, led by Miller with two.
The Lions return to action on Monday, March 4, when they take on Queens University of Charlotte in Charlotte, N.C. Game time is slated for noon. Fans who cannot make it to the game can catch all of the action live on the Saint Leo Sports Network at SaintLeoLions.com.

List of unnamed Vorta.
This Vorta worked with Lasaran on Cardassia Prime. In 2374, the Vorta became suspicious that someone working for them was an informant for the Federation. The Vorta made several inquiries and checks in Lasaran's section. (DS9: "Change of Heart")
Crash victimEdit
In 2373, this Vorta was on a Jem'Hadar attack ship that crashed on Torga IV. The Vorta was killed when the inertial dampers failed. Worf, Jadzia Dax and T'Lor later buried the Vorta over a ridge near the crash site. (DS9: "The Ship")
After the morphogenic virus was discovered, many Vorta Doctors tried to find a cure. In late 2375, the Female Changeling ordered them to be killed after not finding a cure. She then ordered Weyoun to activate their clones, hoping for a "fresh perspective". (DS9: "Penumbra")
In accordance with the non-aggression pact signed between the Dominion and the Bajorans in later 2373, a group of Vorta facilitators later visited Bajor, in early 2374 to help provide technical assistance. These Vorta were unarmed and unaccompanied from any Jem'Hadar soldiers.
Many Bajoran critics, including Vedek Yassim viewed Bajor's acceptance of this group as the first step toward a Dominion occupation. (DS9: "Rocks and Shoals")
Treaty attendee #1Edit
This Vorta was on Deep Space 9 and signed the Treaty of Bajor. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")
Treaty attendee #2Edit
This Vorta was on Deep Space 9 when the Treaty of Bajor was signed. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")
Vorta on Cardassia Prime Edit
This Vorta accompanied Gul Revok to inspect the aftermath of the Dominion's slaughter of Cardassians loyal to the Rebellion on Cardassia Prime in late 2375. (DS9: "The Dogs of War")
Vorta female on Founders' homeworldEdit
This Vorta worked in a cave on the Founders' homeworld in early 2371. She helped conduct an experiment on members of the crew of the USS Defiant. (DS9: "The Search, Part II")
Vorta male on Founders' homeworldEdit
This Vorta worked in a cave on the Founders' homeworld in early 2371. He helped conduct an experiment on members of the crew of the USS Defiant. (DS9: "The Search, Part II")

ONE of the biggest local paddle sports events in the country took place in Pershore as hundreds of people took to the waters for the town's Bell Boat Regatta.
More than 1,000 people took part in the annual event hosted by the Pershore Riverside Youth Centre on Saturday, June 28.
In the morning teams from the surrounding villages took part in the Wychavon Parish Games, and the afternoon saw the school's regatta.
The youth centre provided the refreshments and through selling tea, coffee and bacon rolls managed to raise in excess of £1,000 for the youth centre charity.
Alex Mellor, centre manager, said: "Over 1,000 people took part, making it probably the biggest grass roots participation paddle sports events in the UK."
The event garners great public attention and former Olympic canoeist Andy Train, from Fladbury, works with bell boaters throughout the year and the regatta provides a focus and an introduction into competition for them.
Mr Mellor added: "Andy's experience as an Olympic canoeist and ex world champion, coupled with his teaching skills and passion for the sport and helping young people makes the bell boat programme something special.
"Bell Boats were invented in Fladbury, by David Train, and are now used all around the world providing healthy outdoor activities, outdoor education and great fun for children and young people of any age."
Pershore Riverside Centre also runs bell boat and canoe activity days through the summer holidays for 9 to 13 year olds.

34 Trawler — By Capt. Bill Pike —
January 2005
Mainship's 34 Trawler is the perfect little vessel for a coastal cruising couple.
Automotively speaking, I'm just a tad different. My way of getting to a specific address in a town or city in a car, for example, continues to hew closely to one I glommed onto years ago in Tokyo, where addresses are not sequential—I simply go to the general area and drive around until I find what I'm looking for. Not the most efficient way to get places, of course, but enjoyable. And sometimes surprising.
Take my recent trip to Bradenton, Florida. The test boat I was hunting at the time was a beauty, with a practical, one-stateroom, one-head layout: Mainship's 34 Trawler. She was reportedly docked in a slip at Twin Dolphin Marina, home of Bayside Yacht Sales, the local Mainship dealer. The car I was driving was groovy, too—a rented Mustang ragtop. And the weather was gorgeous, with blue skies in the offing. I'd just started exploring yet another shady street bordering the Manatee River when a veritable vision snapped my head sideways. There, to starboard, winsomely framed by palm fronds, was the prettiest midrange cruiser I'd seen in years.
I slowed to a stop. While a guy behind me began laying on the horn, I attempted to read the logo on the deckhouse. Yup: Mainship Trawler. I U-turned and zipped past the guy (who shot me a peeved look) toward the nearest parking lot.
I was standing at the stern of the test boat within minutes, test gear in hand. The profile was reminiscent of Mainship's old 34 Sedan Trawler, a popular, comparatively narrow, fuel-efficient vessel that hit the marine scene in the 1970's, went through some model changes, and then faded out in 1988. I followed the new 34's broken sheer with an appreciative eye and admired her jaunty bow. For weather protection the flying-bridge cowling overhung the wide side decks, which were bordered by safety-enhancing bulwarks and stainless steel rails. Topside, an after deck extended gracefully over the cockpit, creating an attractive, porch-like ambiance in the cockpit.
I introduced myself to the Bayside rep onboard, Bob Misztak, who helped me heft my stuff into the cockpit and then proudly opened the engine-room hatch, a sound-insulated fiberglass molding that in the closed position doubles as a stairway to the flying bridge. A number of details caught my fancy right off. The coaming around the entryway was high, reaching almost halfway to my knee—no worries about sea water inundating this engine room in a blow. A rugged, removable, two-step aluminum ladder (with wide, industrial-strength diamond-plate treads) led down into machinery spaces—the footing looked secure and comfortable, even for barefoot skippers. And construction seemed solid, a general observation I subsequently confirmed with specifics, among them a hull-to-deck joint secured with mechanical fasteners and 3M 5200; an above-the-waterline coring regime featuring end-grain Baltek balsa and Nidacore; and an assemblage of plywood stringers and transversals encapsulated with plenty of glass.
Getting the test equipment below and forward to our single 370-hp Yanmar was a bit of a chore. To lessen engine-generated noise in the saloon and topside, Mainship's done away with sound-leaking engine-room access hatches inside the boat and added a wrist-thick, Nidacore-filled fiberglass liner that stretches from bow to cockpit. On the up side, the liner puts the lid on sound levels (see specifications, this story) and also adds strength. On the downside, it makes crawling several feet on your hands and knees the only way to routinely access the engine.

The string in question:
- Code: Select all
def conndb(self, server, database, usernm, passwd):
global connstring # I hate global variables
connstring = 'cnxn = pyodbc.connect(r\''+'DRIVER={SQL Server Native Client 10.0};SERVER='+server+';DATABASE='+database+';Trusted_Connection=yes;User ID='+usernm+';PWD='+passwd+'\')'
print(connstring) # For debugging purposes, I check the connection string
Which is then referenced by:
- Code: Select all
def runmetrics(self):
cursor = cnxn.cursor()
data = open('info.txt', 'w')
There must be a better way. I know I can knock off a few lines of this code somehow, but at the moment, the biggest problem is that exec. I hear using exec is a major no-no. How do I kill it?

Groin problems in past as Harrell has sharp start
VIERA, Fla. -- Astros starter Lucas Harrell certainly appears to be over the groin problems that forced him to miss his turn in the rotation a week ago.
Harrell, making his fourth start of the spring, threw four scoreless, hitless innings Saturday against the Nationals, allowing just two walks. The right-hander threw 27 of his 48 pitches for strikes, including a five-pitch first inning in which he didn't throw a ball.
"I definitely felt like I could have gone two or three more [innings]," Harrell said. "I definitely feel like my arm is where it needs to be and my legs are good now, so I'm ready to get back out there now on a consistent basis."
Harrell mixed his pitches quite well and benefited from a couple of nice defensive plays from shortstop Marwin Gonzalez, who went behind second base to rob Ryan Zimmerman of a hit in the second inning and made a nice play across the bag to finish off a 4-6-3 play an inning later.
"Last time I pitched against them, I went in a lot, so I was trying to work on going down and away," Harrell said. "Working with [catcher Carlos] Corporan, we were on the same page all game and I threw a lot of changeups, threw a couple of curveballs, threw some sliders. It wasn't real good today, but it's something I can address the next few days."
Harrell was forced to hit the deck to get the final out of the fourth inning. Zimmerman's bat busted above the hands and went flying over the head of Harrell, who hit the ground and was struck in the face by a small piece of the bat.
"A lot of people probably thought when I went down it was my groin, but when the bat went over my head, a little piece of it flew up and hit me in the face," the pitcher said. "That's why I went down. I was trying to get out of the way of the bat."

Continuing the lo-fi aesthetic of their latest exhibit, CutGlueFold, Axle Contemporary presents The Flatfile Show, a paper-driven curatorial experiment that shines a spotlight on the most basic of mediums.
"It's really exciting because it's the first time we've done it," the mobile gallery's co-director Jerry Wellman tells SFR.
Featuring a flat file map drawer as its centerpiece, the show weighs in at over 20 artists and 100 pieces strong, an amount that Wellman says would have been off the table had they considered any other format.
Though the show features a cast of handpicked artists from Axle's two-plus-year history, Wellman is quick to point out that it's in no way a greatest hits exhibit. "It's more random than that. All the people we've shown are deserving artists, so I would hate to say that."
He also explains that paper is a strong mainstay among high-profile collections in countries like Japan, where collectors have the option of switching art on their walls seasonally.
"I like it because it's slightly archaic, sort of like a manual typewriter," Axle's other business half, Matthew Chase-Daniel, says of the ubiquitous medium.
Expectations for placemat doodles should be left at the door. Pieces like Eve Andree Laramee's toss away the notion of foldaway art and replace it with a distinct point of view that takes off at the intersection of art, nature and science.
"I'm interested in systems and how they interconnect—the way our thoughts are systems, for example—and also natural systems like erosion, the way caves form and climate patterns," Laramee, who splits her time between Brooklyn and Santa Fe, says.
An avid map collector, she also finds inspiration in cartography.
"I started working on them as a kind of relief from my more research-heavy installation projects," Laramee explains, adding that she often employs dots or diamond-shapes to hide or heighten certain aspects within maps, which she describes as "conceptual packets of information."
"It's almost like an editorial process," she says. "It feels like I'm writing poetry by erasing parts of maps and enhancing others."

HOUSTON - Nearly 20 suspected illegal immigrants from Guatemala were arrested Sunday afternoon after they were found crammed into a southeast Houston home on Klondike at Easthaven.
Neighbors said one of the suspected illegal immigrants stumbled into another house begging for someone to call his brother.
"He had a gash on one foot, he had a broken foot," said resident Glenda Hagler. "He couldn't even walk straight, he looked like he had been beaten."
Hagler said that man stumbled into an elderly woman's home, who then asked her neighbors to call police. When officers arrived they said more than a dozen men scattered through the neighborhood, many running away without shoes on their feet. Another five men were later found still hiding in the home. Police said the home is a rental property and had no furniture. Only cell phones, DVDs and a TV were found in the house.
"People started running, they tackled one guy down the street down here," said resident Donna Lawrence.
Hagler said the man who appeared to have been beaten was able to leave the neighborhood before officers arrived.
"Somebody picked him up right before police showed up, which I hope he gets some medical attention," said Hagler. "That poor man, I felt so sorry for him, I wish I could have helped him. The best thing I could do for him was feed him."
Officers gave the men some water as they waited for agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to arrive and take custody of the men. Lawrence and Hagler said they are not surprised the home was being used as a stash house.
"It's constant, in and out, we've seen people crawling in and out of windows, all kinds of strange things," said Lawrence.
"A big black truck pulled into the garage yesterday and immediately all the windows were blacked out, so we knew something was up," said Hagler.
Harris County property records show the home is owned by a development company. Local 2 has not yet been able to track down the owner.

They endured a stunning offseason dismissal and were hit hard by injuries, often leaving young and inexperienced players to fill roles they were never expected to play.
It resulted in a season derailed, not tinged here and there by mere disappointments, but by utter devastation.
Clearly, we're not talking about the LSU Tigers here.
The subject of this little football melodrama is the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Talented but troubled, and to a large degree rudderless after head coach Bobby Petrino lost control of his motorcycle and his professional life in a messy April scandal, the Razorbacks plummeted abruptly from trendy but dark horse BCS contender to the nation's biggest flop.
The University of Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks started Arkansas careening down this road to nowhere on Sept. 8 with what was then a shocking 34-31 overtime upset in Little Rock. The LSU Tigers can put the Razorbacks on ice for the winter with one more defeat Friday in chilly Fayetteville.
Losing Petrino exposed vulnerabilities that interim coach John L. Smith and the rest of Petrino's former staff were incapable of papering over with any degree of success. Petrino turned out to be the team's MVP, and it isn't as though Arkansas could trade for another franchise player.
Meanwhile, LSU retained stability at the top with Les Miles, sometimes a little erratic behind the lecturn but invariably rock solid when pressed into crisis mode.
The slow-motion glacier fall that has been the Tigers' season, shedding key players like parts falling off a junked car, could have easily resulted in the kind of season Arkansas has endured.
All told, the body count is now 22. That's the number of players who have been lost, for a game or for the season, since this summer because of injury, suspension, academics or transfers. That list includes 10 players who were projected starters or who started games at some point.
And oh, yes, there was an unwelcomed visitor named Isaac who came along in September just to test everyone's Katrina/Rita reflexes.
And yet here LSU is, with one game left in the regular season, still clinging to shreds of Southeastern Conference and BCS title hopes but more than that ranked in the top 10 with legitimate hopes of a BCS bowl (no small achievement) on the line.
Miles will earn few if any SEC coach of the year votes — Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin already has one hand around that trophy. But this may be one of his best jobs yet. At some point or another, LSU lost what is almost the equivalent of an entire starting 11 on one side of the ball. Yet with a win and a friendly assist from Florida State on Saturday to beat Florida, LSU could find itself in the Sugar Bowl.
"It's a lot easier to keep your guys healthy and go with what you came in with," Miles said.
"Hopefully this is a number we never have again, but there are always guys who have to step in and play big in key games. I don't want to mention them, but I can think of four or five guys who have stepped into the breach and made the play."
It's the sort of resourcefulness the Razorbacks have lacked, the ability to adjust and regroup, persevere and battle back.
It's a fine line between overcoming and giving in, as thin as a sheet of paper from a football playbook. Maybe if the Razorbacks found a way against ULM instead of having their BCS dreams tossed in the shredder just two weeks in, the season might have turned out differently. Not with championship rings perhaps — Arkansas did lose 52-0 to Alabama, 58-10 to Texas A&M and 45-14 to Mississippi State, nothing paper thin there — but at least with a bowl. At least playing for something besides a hideously huge gold-plated trophy ("The Boot") and the hollow satisfaction of ripping up LSU's hopes of another top-10 finish and BCS bowl berth.
"Arkansas hasn't handled adversity well on the field all season," said Robbie Neiswanger, beat writer for the Arkansas News Bureau.
And so the Razorbacks find themselves here. It's not unfamiliar circumstances in this rivalry for one team or another to be riding high and the other to be in dire straits, just like it isn't unfamiliar for the downtrodden team to jump up and bite the winning one.
Remember LSU clobbering Arkansas 35-10 in 1999 with Hal Hunter as interim?
That game turned out to be a line of demarcation between LSU's struggles of the old century and its unprecedented success in the new.
It was then that LSU fought back from massive, program-sized adversity. It's a quality Arkansas football is trying to find within itself.

Yo Guys,
Been checking iPhone-related news stories daily, and have a few interesting items. I found this story about a web site that streams live TV & movies for iPhone. I just watched the beginning of "Night of the Living Dead" (complete with Spanish subtitles) and it loaded quickly and played smoothly. The site also and offers downloads of movies and shows as well, but of course the streaming requires no huge usage of memory/storage on your phone. Check it out...

Learning Beyond the Classroom
The Mendel Observatory, located on the top floor of the Mendel Science Center on the Merrimack campus, offers opportunities for both casual viewing and student research projects.
Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU). While not required for graduation, the physics department strongly recommends that all physics majors participate in a physics-related REU in the summer between their junior and senior year. Most REU programs offer housing allowances, stipends comparable to what many students would earn at a summer job, and, most importantly, provide students the opportunity to participate in and contribute to a real research program. Physics majors, in consultation with their advisors, should begin identifying and applying to REU programs in the Fall semester of their junior year.

Utah Shakespeare Festival Quilt on Display at Frontier Homestead State Park Museum
The Utah Shakespeare Festival has a special quilt on display for the Block by Block: Stories of Common Threads exhibit at the Frontier Homestead State Park Museum, which will run until December 31. The quilt was created by the Festival's first costume designer from the Festival's inaugural season in 1962.
"This quilt, which we treasure, was made by and for the very first costumer at the Festival, GayLynn Sherratt Childs," said Fred C. Adams, Festival founder. "But Gaylynn was not only our costumer, she also played Kate, the leading role in The Taming of the Shrew. This quilt was made by her mother from Gaylynn's costume designs for the show and made up out of the fabric from those first costumes. So it's a real walk down memory lane." The quilt was later donated to the Festival and is now referred to as "the Festival quilt."
The Festival quilt is only one aspect of the Block by Block: Stories of Common Threads at the museum. Ryan Paul, the museum's curator, assembled these quilts into an exhibit because he saw a connection between all the quilts on display. Paul said, "The Common thread is all the quilts tell a story in one way or another. Each one of these quilts has a very specific story tied to it."
Paul added that, "Quilting is one of America's art forms. It is one of those ways in which we have been telling stories for years." He compared quilting to early Native American pictographs and petroglyphs saying, "a quilt is the same thing. It uses visual imagery to tell a personal story, whether it's of you, of a family, or of an event. And so quilting actually serves as a mechanism to tell the story of ourselves and our country."
"Quilting is definitely an art form, and it's not a lost art form," said Adams. "It is a talent that is constantly evolving and coming up with new methods and new technologies. It's marvelous. But it's more than art; it's also a memory preserver."
Another unique aspect of this exhibit is that Utah quilters made all of the quilts on display. Some of the quilts were brought in from museums in Salt Lake City and Springville, and a few of the quilts were made by local artisans. The exhibit also offers the chance to hear the history of each of the displayed quilts first-hand with touch-screen video recordings of the stories of each quilt. Hands-on activities related to quilting are also available.
The exhibit is on display at the Frontier Homestead State Park Museum until December 31, 2012. You may get more information by visiting 635 North Main Street in Cedar City, by visiting FrontierHomestead.org, or by calling (435) 586-9290.

TROWBRIDGE skipper Matt Howard was "physically and mentally drained'' by the final tension-filled minutes of Saturday's final at Doric Park.
Howard's men seemingly had the game wrapped up when they moved 20-6 ahead on the hour mark as replacement forward Mark Durant was driven over the line by his pack.
But Trowbridge still had to endure a nervy finale as Ivybridge fly-half Matt Grieveson's boot chipped away at the lead, before the dominant home pack finally forced the crucial turnover which allowed them to start the celebrations.
Howard said: "Usually when you are playing you don't really notice the tension that is around but, with such a big prize at stake, it was obvious lads were thinking 'don't let it be me who makes the big mistake'.
"I was absolutely drained at the end, physically and mentally.'' He said: "For me, it was a joy to hear the crowd again. Against Bletchley (in the Southern Counties final earlier this month) was the first time I'd heard our home crowd going for it, but this was another level.
"At the end there was just a massive sense of achievement. It was a great occasion for the club.'' The home side thoroughly deserved their triumph in front of a large phalanx of spectators, victory being built around a supreme forwards effort.
Ivybridge, through the precision boot of Grieveson, set up a grandstand finish as they ate into the lead but, despite possessing a potent-looking back line, the Trowbridge rearguard simply refused to yield.
Trowbridge had lock Alan Chadwick harshly sin-binned by referee Simon Walker for scragging galloping full-back Tom Scoles by the collar, but the hosts' forward power was always much in evidence and they led 6-3 at half time.
The try the home side craved arrived 12 minutes into the second period as Howard expertly clawed in a lineout throw and sent substitute back row Shane Johnstone charging towards the line. The big man was held up but slipped the ball back to Howard, who forced his way over.
The home side appeared to have wrapped up the win on the hour mark as Ivybridge erred on their own lineout throw near their own line and the pack drove Durant over.
Davis added the extras for a 14-point lead and, despite Grieveson's boot, the home side held on.

CINCINNATI (AP) -- Three Ohio teenagers who told police they beat a man at random because they were bored have pleaded guilty in the case.
The three 14-year-olds pleaded guilty to felonious assault Monday in Hamilton County Juvenile Court as part of a plea agreement with prosecutors. Aggravated rioting charges were dropped.
The teens will be sentenced in the next two months. Their potential punishments range from probation to being held in juvenile prison until they're 21.
Charges against three other teens in the beating are pending.
Police say the six young men admitted to brutally beating 45-year-old Pat Mahaney in August in the Cincinnati suburb of North College Hill as he was walking home.
Police say the teens said they attacked Mahaney because they were bored and looking for something to do.

Tradesmen and labourers play a key role in the house building and construction industries, as they do the bulk of the hands-on work during projects.
Roles range from basic labouring to skilled positions, such as bricklayer, roofer, scaffolder, joiner and painter. There are also a handful of supervisory jobs available, including foreman and site manager.
The trades require on the job training from experienced staff and all workers have to begin either as a labourer or an apprentice, with a starting salary of around £12,000. While there are no specific educational requirements for people looking to find employment in the industry, trainees are expected to study towards relevant qualifications, such as CSkills or City & Guilds level 2 certificates in construction.
Civil engineering contractors, house builders, construction companies, buildings maintenance firms and local authorities all need skilled tradesmen. Wages for permanent staff are typically in the region of £20,000 to £30,000.
However, as much of the work is project-based, many experienced tradesmen operate on a self-employed basis, taking short-term contracts that pay more than full-time jobs. Employers can find staff for temporary assignments through specialist trades and construction recruitment agencies, which can supply reference-checked workers whenever their skills are needed on site.
View your closest or specialist recruiters by using the Agency Search above.
Recruiter tip provided by Multi Trades Recruitment Ltd
Due to the demands of the Building and Construction industry, employers should hire staff who can demonstrate a good level of physical fitness. A specialist recruitment agency will have assessment procedures in place to ensure candidates have the skills and qualifications necessary for each specific position.
Jobseeker tip provided by Multi Trades Recruitment Ltd
While no particular qualifications are needed to enter the industry, candidates will have to undergo on the job training that is relevant to their vocation. This is likely to be in the form of an NVQ, although some colleges and universities will also offer courses.

Goin' Down to Cairo: Folksongs in the Land of Lincoln. A Road Scholar Program by Bucky Halker
Few people in Illinois know the story of the state's rich and diverse folk music traditions. From the beginning of the nineteenth century through the folk revival of the 1950s, Illinoisans have produced an impressive body of folk music from historical ballads, to labor anthems, to early country songs, to dance tunes (not to mention an equally large body of music from ethnic communities in the state). As a long-time collector of folk music and the producer-scholar for the CD documentary series "Folksongs of Illinois, Volumes 1-5," Bucky Halker has gained a deep appreciation for the folk music of Illinois. He has also written the only guide to archival holdings related to Illinois folk music. Join Bucky for a lecture-concert in which he shares his knowledge of the Prairie State's folk music with particular attention to historical ballads.
This event is free and open to the public.
Sponsor Organization: Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church
The Illinois Humanities Council [IHC] is supported in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Illinois General Assembly [through the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency], as well as by contributions from individuals, foundations and corporations.

Murad Rapid Age Spot & Pigment Lightening Gel
Murad Rapid Age Spot & Pigment Lightening Gel Reviews
face treatmenti love the murad treatments because they are all water-based. you can use this in the morning if you missed your antioxidant treatments in your twenties (and spent a little too much time in the sun). prevention is the best cure, murad makes an antioxidant treatment which will help prevent future pigmentation from forming. (as will sunscreen and stayin out of the sun). — 5 years, 11 months agomamacita11 | 234 reviews

The War Between Murad Lightening Gel And My Age SpotsI have been fighting the age spot war for a while. I have had the tenacious little spots lasered off but they keep popping back up. While in Sephora before leaving on a trip, my favorite Sephora girl gave me a sample of Murad's lightening gel. She said it was so powerful that it lightened her freckles. So I thought, "Age spots beware. Murad is now in my cache of ammunitions" I have ...read morebeen using the lightening gel every night before I go to bed, and lo and behold, the pesky spots are slowly but surely disappearing. This is cheaper than laser and seems like a good long-term fix. Murad definitely wins this war. I have added a sunscreen with Mexoryl to make sure that the skin on my hand is shielded and doesn't add any more "freckles." I will rate this an 8, only because the jury is still out. I haven't used it long enough to see if it will fade the spots to oblivion. — 9 years, 6 months agogirlwomanbeautybrainsblog | 232 reviews
