CLAY COUNTY, Fla. - Tuesday was a mad rush for hundreds of residents along Black Creek to grab belongings and get out. On Wednesday, many of those residents were going back, trying to go home to get more stuff.
It was the first time they saw just how bad the damage was and realizing how much they've lost.
"I've seen bunches of tears, lots of tears the last two days," said Chad Mullen, who was helping people affected by the flooding.
Homes were under water, cars and boats were stuck, and people were left with little-to-no belongings. The record flooding along Black Creek caused devastation for hundreds of residents.
"I walked in the house and it was sad. Everything you've had forever is ruined," resident John Quillan said.
Residents had no choice but to get creative, using golf carts, four-wheelers and canoes to salvage anything they could from their flooded homes.
"We were scooping water out the window," said Audrey Frier, whose home flooded. "First we used a Wet/Dry Vac and we were carrying it up and dumping it in the tub, and the water just kept coming up so fast."
The Frier family went back Wednesday afternoon to get medication and more clothes, but the closest they could get to their house was about a half-mile away down Lazy Acre Road, which was completely flooded.
"As we transition from the response mode into the recovery mode, we will be working on extensive damage assessments to come up with totals and find where those impacts are," Clay County Fire-Rescue Chief Lorin Mock said.
He said he knows 200 homes have been affected by the high water, and he estimates there's at least another 300.
"You can see everybody's stuff is ruined," Mullen said. "I've got one of my best friends that's trapped in her house with her father-in-law, and he's sick and in a wheelchair. We can't even get him out of the house right now, so it's pretty sad."
The Fire Department and Clay County Sheriff's Office has rescued 90 people from Black Creek with the help of Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department's swift water rescue team.
They're also encouraging people to take at least four days worth of belongings, because once they help them out, they will not bring people back to their houses and they don't expect the water to recede any sooner.
A Red Cross shelter was open Wednesday at Clay High School at 1913 Darden Road.
Residents needing assistance can call the Clay County Emergency Operations hotline at 904-284-7703.
Flooding brings in animals
The Safe shelter in Middleburg is seeing an influx of residents because of the flooding, many of which weren't meant to be housed by Barbara Sprague and her staff.
"We have scorpions and all kinds of leeches and minnows swimming in our kennels. We have fish swimming in the parking lot and there's gators all around here, too," she said.
Floodwaters from the Black Creek crept into the drains along the kennels on Wednesday. Overflow from the retention pool also made its way inside.
Safe volunteers had to rush to get the dogs and cats out.
"The little ones we had to carry and the big ones were just up to their legs, their bellies were touching the water," said Menoka Bernardo.
None of the animals were injured. They were sent to other Clay County shelters and rescues until the water recedes enough for the Safe staff to clean up and move them back in.
Sprague said the community has already stepped up to help.
"We've had porta pottys delivered, dumpsters, and sandbags and anything and everything that we can possibly use help the pets out," she said.
Sprague holes they will be reopened by Thursday afternoon. She said the waters had begun receding late Wednesday, leaving behind a wet mess.
"There's probably going to be some medical issues for the cats and dogs, too, so people can donate to our medical fund. Kitten chow, dog food, scoopable litter we would most appreciate," she said.

Netflix secures syndication rights for 'Mad Men' on Watch Instantly
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Corporate News, Home Entertainment
"Mad Men" fans might not get a new dose of Don Draper until 2012, but Netflix has inked a deal with Lionsgate to stream all seasons of the show via Watch Instantly.
The first four seasons of the AMC drama will be available to U.S. viewers on Netflix starting July 27. Canadian customers already have streaming access to the show.
"Mad Men has been and continues to be a representation of TV at its best and Netflix is proud to be the syndication home for this acclaimed series," Ted Sarandos, chief content officer at Netflix, said in a statement. "This deal secures long term instant access to an iconic show for Netflix members for years to come."
The deal is noteworthy because Netflix is paying for the syndication rights to "Mad Men"; reruns will not air on other broadcast or cable TV channels.

Let's talk about school
The principal resigned yesterday. That will make something like 4 principals in 6 years. Why yes, there IS a problem with the school. I believe I've mentioned that a few
His tenure review was this year, and I have the feeling his resignation came because he wasn't going to be offered tenure. I don't know that for a fact, it's really just a feeling. But I know that I was part of a parent team asked to evaluate him, and the evaluations were not rave reviews across the board. I also know that some teachers, especially in the special programs weren't overly enthralled with him either.
Of course this comes at a terribly difficult time. The schools are kinda broke and they can't offer the huge salaries that we've paid in the past. Additionally, as long as the Stuperintendent of Schools Jeffrey Young is around leeching money from the school making the biggest salary in the freaking state, we're not going to get a candidate that will make the correct types of changes the school needs. Mr Young is so focussed on the touchy-feeley, politically correct leadership of our school that he doesn't see the real problems as they are. He's not involved in the day to day running of the school, nor does he actually understand the issues that the students have to deal with. He is unaware of the bullying, the violence, the stealing, and the harassment that certain kids (not mine, thank goodness) go through. Nor is he ready to acknowledge that the school's academics are twirling around the drain, especially with the less abled kids. As long as he has enough kids going into IVY colleges, he doesn't care about the rest of the kids struggling to get through their classes and into state colleges.
So we've got monitary problems in the school system, limiting the amount a new principal can be offered. We've got a superintendent that will be looking for the wrong kind of person to manage the school, and we have kids who are suffering because they do not have steady leadership due to the constant turnover.
This is NOT a way to run the school.
And it pisses me off no end that I just KNOW there won't be a change that I'll be happy with. Four years ago, both high school principal positions were open. I had high hopes that we would get someone good, because we were holding a nationwide search and our city school system has a good reputation, although mostly based on past and not recent successes. When the new hires were announced, the most salient fact about both of them was that they were both gay. Like that freaking matters. But to our superintendent, that IS what matters. He replaced a much loved middle school principal with a reviled moron because said moron was black. It had nothing to do with experience (the moron was a PE teacher) or talent (he appeared on the local news right after he was hired for the attrocious treatment of certain students who he made crawl down the hallways as punishment). The guy was SO bad I pulled the Girl out of that school and moved her to another middle school with a delightfully appropriate principal (also gay) who was hired well before the superintendent came to stay.
I've heard that at least 4 elementary school principals are also leaving. We've had a revolving door of principals for years, especially in the elementary schools. That speaks of a school system that isn't managed well. People don't leave executive level jobs, especially in this economic climate, unless they're totally miserable at their jobs. I have to believe that this must be the case here, since it's been an ongoing problem since Mr Young arrived.
And please God, we won't renew his contract again.

Fresh Mozzarella: The Good Stuffby Robin Miller in Uncategorized, May 1, 2012
Why do I say "the good stuff?" Because I want to differentiate fresh mozzarella from the mass-produced part-skim and fat-free cheeses that tempt healthy cooks. First, let me clarify. I often use part-skim mozzarella in sauces, baked toppings and casseroles because it shreds and melts easily, blends well with other ingredients (because it's less flavorful than fresh) and using fresh would be a waste of a fabulous (and slightly more expensive) ingredient. I never use fat-free because it's flavorless and doesn't melt correctly.
I use fresh mozzarella when I want to experience the smooth, velvety cheese in all its glory, embellished very simply with fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs. Fresh mozzarella is typically sold in a liquid bath (brine, whey or water) which helps the cheese retain hydration and shape. It's mild and slightly sweet with a distinct milk flavor. The creamy texture is much softer than mass-processed mozzarella.
Nutritionally speaking, you might be shocked to learn how similar the varieties are, especially if you're watching fat and salt intake. Fresh and part-skim mozzarella are basically the same in terms of calories, fat and saturated fat, BUT part-skim has carbohydrates (1 gram per ounce, probably from added potato starch) and ridiculously more sodium (over 200 milligrams more per ounce than fresh mozzarella).
Note: Keep fresh mozzarella in its liquid bath until ready to eat, and eat it within 2 to 3 days.
Take a look at the nutritional breakdown for fresh, part-skim and fat-free mozzarella to see what I mean:

Now that the American consensus holds that Moammar Qadhafi was a vile dictator who few will mourn, it might be time to recall that taxpayer-funded PBS actually aired a documentary series by an Islamic professor that honored Qadhafi as "brilliant." Brent Bozell, then chairing the National Conservative Foundation, led the charge against a series called The Africans that aired in the fall of 1986.
Check out what we ranked as Reason #2 in our Special Report Counting the Reasons to Defund: The 20 Most Memorable Leftist Excesses of Public Broadcasting:
In October 1986, PBS began airing a nine-part series called The Africans, co-produced by the BBC and Washington PBS station WETA. Lynne Cheney, then the chair of the National Endowment for the Humanities, got the NEH logo removed from the series in protest of how the producer and narrator, Ali Mazrui, "extols the virtues of Moammar Qaddafi."
In the show, Mazrui boasted: "Two supreme ideals seem to have inspired Qaddafi's adventures: to turn Africans and Arabs into masters of their own destiny, and to transform them into major actors on the world stage. Qaddafi is another example of how it is not enough just to stop being pawns in the games of the powerful. We must become global players in our own right." Asked by reporters if Qaddafi is a terrorist, Mazrui replied, "The man is brilliant, but inclined to be unpredictable in his loyalties."
Suzanne Weil, then the senior vice president for programming at PBS, told The Washington Post: "I find him absolutely riveting. He is Islamic, and that's the view he has. He has not a lot of wonderful things to say about the West, but we have wonderful respect for our audiences, and we expect they can see other points of view and compare." But there were no other points of view in the series.
Asked about the one-sided presentation, then-WETA president Ward Chamberlain Jr. conceded: "The Western world doesn't come out very well in the series," but "the Western world shouldn't come out too well regarding its role in Africa."
In an article in The New Republic, Charles Krauthammer found the show looked "through a prism of vulgar Marxism, anachronistic economics, and anti-Western resentment." Mazrui even announced in the series that Karl Marx "was the last of the great Jewish prophets."
NCF's newsletter Newswatch also reported Mazrui commended Qadhafi for "restoring the credentials of Islam as a global force" by using oil revenues "for the greater glory of Africa as well as Islam." Mazrui excused Qadhafi's support for terrorism: He "supported armed resistance against what he regarded as Western imperialism, but in so doing, he brought upon himself the revenge of the West."

Local teachers inject new life into Gettysburg Address
Tom Gray doesn't always know what he's going to tell the children behind him when they walk though the gates of Gettysburg National Cemetery.
It's the last stop on an annual trip for Shaler Area Middle School's history club. About 50 seventh- and eighth-graders tour the town, battlefields and buildings before arriving at the burial ground President Abraham Lincoln dedicated 150 years ago Tuesday. Gray's job, when they get there, is to somehow tie together all they've seen with Lincoln's immortal address.
"It's hard to explain, but when you're standing there with the kids, you can always find the words," Gray said.
Teaching the Gettysburg Address has progressed beyond rote memorization as teachers adopt more immersive experiences. Some, like Gray, bring the students to Gettysburg. Others, like South Fayette history teachers Matt Bacco and Dena Hoffman, bring Gettysburg to the students.
Bacco and Hoffman attended a two-day teachers' workshop in August about teaching the Gettysburg Address. Organized by the National Park Service in Gettysburg, the program gave them lesson suggestions, a deeper understanding of the time in which the speech was given, and a script for a re-enactment that cast unsuspecting students as Lincoln's audience in a surprise assembly.
"They're not expecting this. They're not expecting to see their principal dressed up as Abraham Lincoln," Hoffman said.
"He has the beard and everything," Bacco said.
History students will be assigned to analyze the speech as journalists. It's more effective — and entertaining — than committing to memory Lincoln's 270-word address.
"When students are in a real world-style (situation), they get a better understanding of the history and context," said Dave Deramo, the principal and Lincoln stand-in.
Gray, the Shaler social studies teacher, uses the stories of people who fought and witnessed the battle and its grim aftermath to give context to Lincoln's words. Among those they learn about on their trip is Elizabeth Thorn, caretaker of Evergreen Cemetery, which is beside the national cemetery Lincoln dedicated.
"She buried 105 soldiers and removed the carcasses of 36 horses — and she did that when she was six months pregnant," Gray said.
"We tried to put those kids as close to 1863 as possible," Gray said.

Friday Night: Joakim Noah's Career Highs Too Much For Pistons
The Pistons were up by as much as 17 points in the first half, but a Joakim Noah-led rally had the Bulls down only 50-55 at the half. With momentum on their side, the Bulls took control of the game in the fourth quarter. When it was all said and done Noah found himself with career-high in both points and rebounds, scoring 30 and grabbing 23 boards. The Bulls beat the Pistons for the 16th straight time by a score of 108-104.
For the Pistons it was a heartbreaker, but a game that produced a number of positives. Coming off a poor performance against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday, Brandon Knight's deep-thigh bruise seemed to have little affect on the starting point guard as Knight scored 21 points on a solid 6-for-11 night from the field. Rodney Stuckey came off the bench to play 36 minutes in the game, leading all Pistons in assists and points scored with seven and 24 respectively. Another solid sign from the bench, Charlie Villanueva was on the floor for 21 minutes, contributing 15 points on a 6-for-9 shooting night including 3-for-5 from three point land.
The Bulls attack was balanced as all five starters posted double-digit point totals; the Pistons only had three starters score more than 10. Noah and Carlos Boozer were too much for the Pistons in the paint as Boozer scored 24 to couple with Noah's 30 points. The Bulls won the points in the paint battle by a score of 58-38, and out-muscled the Pistons for second chance points and 13 offensive rebounds. Another area where the Pistons didn't get enough production was from starting shooting guard Kyle Singler, who followed up his three point effort against Golden State with a two point effort against Chicago on Friday night.
Saturday Night: Knight's Night in Cleveland
Brandon Knight must have thought that Joakim Noah's 30-point career-high night looked like fun on Friday night. Saturday had the Pistons in Cleveland for their second meeting with the Cavaliers in the last five games, and with only one prior road-win this season, Brandon Knight sealed the deal for a second road "W" with a career-high 30-points of his own. Despite still being without Kyrie Irving and Dion Waiters, Cleveland played the Pistons tough. But Knight was to much as the Pistons left town with a 104-97 victory.
Only seven points in the first half and down 49-52, Brandon Knight put the game on his shoulders scoring 23 in the second half, including 13 points in the fourth quarter. Knight had been especially aggressive over the last couple games, averaging a little more than 18 points over the last five games. But Saturday saw Knight with one of his more balanced scoring nights, scoring in the lane and from beyond the arch at a high percentage clip no matter where he rose up for the shot. Knight was 10-for-20 on the night, including a near-perfect 5-for-6 mark from three point land. Truly a complete game, Knight added 5 assists and 7 rebounds. Knight spoke to ESPN about his "hot" second half after the game:
"It was just me taking more advantage of the shots I did have," Knight said. "They did a great job contesting my shots in the first half — not that they didn't in the second — but I was more aggressive doing my job."
The Pistons also had strong contributions from the supporting cast, as four other Pistons put up double-digit scoring efforts. (Monroe-11, Maxiell-10, Prince-14, Stuckey-10) Rookies Kyle Singler and Andre Drummond helped out with nine points each, and Charlie Villanueva added six points of his own on two, fourth quarter three-point shots from nearly the same exact spot on the floor.
What's Next?
The Pistons travel to Philadelphia to take on the 76ers for the second time this season on Monday night. In their first meeting, the Pistons won their first game of the season on Philadelphia's home floor. The 76ers have lost three of their last four games, and the Pistons will look to win back-to-back road games for the first time this season. Tip-off is Monday at 7:30 pm.

He married his wife June in 1958, the start of 55 years of happy marriage. His daughter, Jane, was born in 1961 and his son, Alistair, in 1963.
In 1959, Dr Adams joined his father in general practice in Beeston for 13 good years.
But it was his 15-year spell as medical officer at Leeds United which many more remember him for.
Described as being a pioneer in the field of sport medicine, he helped keep Leeds players in good health through some high-profile campaigns in the 1960s and 1970s – under celebrated manager Don Revie.
In addition to his work for Leeds Utd, he became medical officer for international athletics, gymnastics, karate, cricket test matches plus Leeds Rugby League.
He went on to be elected chairman of the British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine as well as to the executive of the European Federation of Sports Medicine Associations.
Dr Adams retired in 1994 at the age of 62 and the same year completed a marathon in three hours and 12 minutes.
His wife passed away in October last year. He leaves two children and three grandchildren.

The Waynedale boys basketball team was "all Bark" in the third quarter Saturday, as senior guards John Barker and Todd Barkman keyed a rally that saw the Bears turn a 9-point halftime deficit into a lead.
The best news of all for coach Erich Riebe was the host Bears had "plenty of bite" in the fourth quarter as well, thanks to the inside play of senior Brian Zuercher and sophomore Dustin Raber.
Those two combinations were enough for Waynedale to surprise Central Christian 44-42 in a non-conference battle of unbeatens.
In the first serious test of the season for either team, favored Central Christian (2-1) took control from the start in building a 26-17 halftime lead.
The Crusaders, who have five letterwinners back from last season's team which advanced to the Div. IV regional finals, took the lead midway through the first quarter on Seth Grizzle's only points of the game, a 3-pointer.
Continuing to build the momentum until the half, the Crusaders looked to simply be a notch better as some might have expected.
Waynedale (4-0) came out of its locker room a different team in the third quarter, though, "Barking" its way to a 15-0 run to open the period.
Led by a combined nine points from Barker and Barkman, the Bears went up 32-26 and would hold onto the lead the rest of the way.
Central Christian would fight back to cut the margin to 35-32 at the end of the third quarter, and trim it to within one point in the fourth.
However, with Zuercher and Raber coming through big on the glass late, the Bears were able to hold on for the win.
Zuercher, who scored a game-high 15 points, hit 3-of -4 foul shots in the final 12.7 seconds and had four of his six rebounds in the final quarter. Raber didn't score, but his five rebounds and two steals were also instrumental in holding onto the win.
What really got Waynedale, and especially the "Bark Brothers" going in the third, was its matchup zone defense which forced numerous turnovers and poor shots.
Barker (career-high 13 points, three steals, four rebounds) and Barkman (11 points, three steals, five rebounds) turned up the pressure atop the zone, an alignment usually associated with being more passive than a man-to-man defense.
"I always kind of thought a zone was lazier even when I was playing," Riebe said. "Last season we started playing some zone and had success in it and we've used it ever since.
"It's technically a zone, but it's a matchup zone so it's like man-to-man. You guard the man in your area. I was nervous playing it against (Central Christian ) because of their outside shooting, but it worked for us. John Barker really did a nice job for us in it and it's good to see him have some success because he's a kid who's worked real hard."
Barkman split a pair of free throws to open the third quarter, with Zuercher grabbing a missed second attempt. Zuercher put the stickback in and completed a 3-point play after being fouled.
The Bears sliced the deficit to three points just 55 seconds into the quarter when Barkman flew through the key on a fastbreak to tip in Tad Fry's missed shot.
Just when Central thought things couldn't get any worse, the next four possessions became its worst nightmare as all four ended with turnovers.
Barker started the blitz with a pair of steals at the top of the zone, taking the first for a coast-to-coast layup and kicking the second ahead to Zuercher for another layup which gave the Bears the lead at 27-26.
After another Bears' steal, Barker canned a pair of free throws.
The run wasn't quite over as Barkman worked free for a jumper and Fry would add a free throw to put Waynedale up 32-26 with 5:24 still left in the quarter.
"We wanted to come out and put a lot of pressure on them," Barker said. "I was diving out there, reaching for the ball, doing whatever."
Central Christian coach Henry Beun saw his team hit just 3-of-18 attempts from 3-point range, but said much of that had to do with Waynedale's aggressive zone.
"We turned the ball over four times to start the second half," Beun said. "We have not been a good third-quarter team, which is part of our learning and growing process.
"I have to give Waynedale a lot of the credit, though. They came out and played very hard and I think we kind of panicked. I think their zone defense actually intimidated us a little bit as far as us attacking it. They mixed it up some, trapping us and playing a 3-2."
Despite being tripled up 18-6 in the third quarter, Central may have actually been able to rally back if not for the rebounding of Zuercher and Raber.
"Waynedale made a liar out of me," Beun said. "I told the kids if we won the battle on the boards we'd win the game.
"We did that (outrebounding Waynedale 33-27), but they got some big ones down the stretch. We found out it's not always the number of rebounds you get, but when you do it sometimes."
Travis Geiser led the Crusaders with nine points, while Chris Hignight had seven points and Kyle Beun worked for six points and a game-high 10 rebounds.
For Waynedale, which had hardly been tested in easy wins over Mogadore Christian, Medina Christian Academy and Chippewa, the Bears certainly showed something after surviving their first serious challenge.
The defending co-champions in the Wayne County Athletic League return just two starters, but proved without a doubt they're a serious contender again.
"I was talking with coach Beun before the game and we both agreed neither team had been tested," Riebe said. "We said this would be a chance to see where we're both at.
"I knew how good his team was, but I didn't know about us. I think our guys showed they are a real good team also."

Welcome everyone to Book 11 of The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. You can find the schedule to Knife of Dreams over HERE. Everyone is welcome to join us!
This week, Eivind, our WoT encyclopedia, is our host and can be found in the comments. Check out Sue's post at Coffee, Cookies, & Chili Peppers and Liesel's at Musings on Fantasia, cool non-spoilery fan art.
This week, we covered Chapters 19-23. Spoilers run rampant for this section and all previous books below!
1. Our favorite Origer bachelor is finally married. Any wise words for the newlyweds? The Ogier are torn on whether to leave this world or help humanity out. Do you think Loial will be able to sway them?
My wise (ass) words to Erith would be to keep Loial stocked in good traveling clothes and scribing materials and to perhaps travel often with Loial just to avoid regular conflict with her mother-in-law. Of course my words of wisdom to Loial would be to let Erith think all the traveling is her idea.
Once again, I am reminded of Tolkien's Ents, and their Entmoot where they take a very long time deciding on whether or not to help out the hasty humans, elves, dwarves, and humans. Knowing how that turned out, and also suspecting that the Dark One won't leave the Steadings & Ogier alone, I think the Ogier will eventually fight evil rather than flee.
And I hope that Loial will be able to sway them sooner rather than simply walk away to join Rand at the Last Battle and have Ogier decide that is much more exciting than any Ogier business and join him later. Though I suspect that Covril or Erith may have a hand in persuading the Ogier, even if it means shaming them into caring about this world.
2. It's been a while since the last surprise trolloc attack. Who could have been behind this one? Why now, and why so incredibly many? Lews Therin took control of Rand's channeling. Will we see that again, and what kind of consequences might it have?
I wasn't expecting a massive trolloc attack on the heals of an Ogier wedding!
Since the Dark One and Moridin want to keep Rand alive for now, I don't think they were behind this attack. No, my eye turned toward Mazrim Taim. After all, if Rand, Logain, and a bunch of their closest followers fell in a trolloc attack, he could reign supreme (at least until the Dark One had him bale fired). Of course, this would mean that he has a hotline into a Forsaken who wants Rand dead now (as I don't think Taim has been given command of so many myrrdraal). Taim would guesstimate that it would take oodles of myrrdraal and oodles X 20 to take out both Rand and Logain. Good for him that he miscalculated.
In this case, it was a very good thing that Lews took over the channeling and saved the day. But Lews isn't the most stable Channeler out there, so I can see him losing it in a moment of disturbed surprise or intense anger and wiping out half of Rand's army. Rand seriously needs to lock that shit down. Perhaps this is what Cadsuane needs to teach Rand, but first he would need to trust her enough to 1) confide in her about Lews and 2) Allow her to guide him, perhaps even entering his dreams or thoughts for a short time to do so. Good thing she is such a snuggable motherly type woman that Rand could so easily learn to trust. Not!
3. Lan departs to fight his own war, but Nynaeve won't let him do it alone. Any thoughts on the actions of either? Any chills during the scene in the inn?
And yet for the third time during 1 reading session, I was surprised! I know that Lan has had a death wish since he learned he was the last Malkiri King, and that it intensified when Moiraine disappeared through that door angreal, but he really is a dense idiot sometimes. First, he can't hold some pass in the north against hordes of trollocs and myrrdraal BY HIMSELF, no matter how good he is, no matter the terrain. So wrapping his suicidal inclinations up in honor and duty and heroics isn't going to fool anyone in that scenario. Two, thinking that Nynaeve would simply let him do so is silly. She owns him now. Yep. You can put the love spin on it if you wish (and I do believe she does love him), but she is very, very possessive too. His life is now hers and she won't be tossing it away.
And I was a bit surprised that Nynaeve was grown up enough to let Lan go and do his duty. I was also quite pleased to see her spreading the word near and far, calling in men to join Lan. Essentially, it's like organizing a big party on sheep butchering day back in Two Rivers. Nynaeve is definitely the one to organize such an affair.
4. Rand again works his ta'veren magic and the rebellion in Tear is no more. Darlin, who was a rebel not four books ago, is king. Do you think he has sufficiently demonstrated his loyalty, or are you worried? Rand is focusing on Arad Doman. What do you think his plan there is?
We just saw Rand and his entourage take out thousands of trollocs and several dozen to a few hundred myrrdraal. If Darlin hasn't heard about that yet, he will soon. So if he is planning any kind of subterfuge now, he will probably reconsider upon hearing that tale. So, no I am not particularly worried. Plus, he also was privy to seeing Cadsuane call Rand on his rude manners, so he knows he can be both pushed and reigned in without exploding. So it is unlikely that Darlin will decide to rebel 'for the sake of the realm and to save his people from the mad Dragon reborn'.
I don't know what Rand is planning in Arad Doman. Would he be leaving certain Waygates open to kind of channel where the trollocs turn up?
I think Eivind mentioned this in the last two weeks, that Robert Jordan had only planned 12 books and so he was trying to wind up some things in this book so that all could be tied off in the next book, right? But for us, we could have to wait to Book 14 to find out what goes down in Arad Doman.
5. The Sea Folk have chosen a new Mistress of the Ships and are being conscripted for the Arad Doman plan. Meanwhile, a whole race of islanders commit suicide! Where on Earth did that come from? Will it have any impact at all or is it just one of those… things?
I think the mass suicide was balance that Rand was contemplating earlier when he rode through town and the man fell out of a balcony onto his feet instead of his head, etc. Min says that for every evil, there is a good, while Rand takes the pessimistic opposite. Perhaps this mass suicide was the balance for all those who escaped Ebou Dar.
I expect it will sadden Rand when he hears of it, but I don't expect any major ripples from it. I think it will just be another of those things that Jordan throws in to give the world depth.
6. An important sitting is called and the rebel Aes Sedai finally learn some important news (Saidin is clean, and they've been harboring a Saidin-channeling female forsaken for six books). Are you happy that Halima was rooted out? Sad that they weren't caught? Will they rethink their Asha'man policy now?
There was a lot of great stuff in this section. Being carried around in Ramanda's head was interesting (romance adventure novels! prudish about ankles and boobs! set in her ways despite evidence to the contrary, especially concerning the new elderly novices, etc.).
I have been taken an impish glee in shocking the Aes Sedai. And I expect I am not alone in this. I really enjoyed the reactions to the Asha'man, and the announcements about bonding, both the offering up of Asha'men to be bonded and the fact that silly Sisters were already bonded to Asha'men.
I was surprised that Ramanda put it together first and called out Halima. Since Halima is a Forsaken in disguise, I figured that she wouldn't be caught yet. Though I think it might have been pretty spectacular to have her fight an entire encampment of Aes Sedai.
Some of the Sisters are already moving along and not living in the past (cool with getting rid of the age limit on entering the Tower, etc.), and I think most of them will come to treat the Asha'men as equals in time. However, we will always have some sticklers like Ramanda and they will make it that much harder to prep for and win the Last Battle.
Other Tidbits:
That was a swift, simple wedding and I totally didn't expect it. I wonder what does happen when you fondle an Ogier ear? And if they pierce their ears, is that the same as in humans piercing their nipples?
Lews Therin is starting to make some sense to me and I think I like the chap well enough to buy him a pint of beer: Only those who trust no one are truly insane (paraphrased).
Is it just me or is Nynaeve becoming some sort of a prude in her 'old' married life? What was that interesting dress she wore in the circus in which she met Masema?
I loved watching Logain stroll in and chat with the Sea Folk, calling them to pay service to the Dragon Reborn. And with the end of the world just around the corner, I think he is right to hold them to it even in their grief.

Our Mission
The mission of the Roy Hyatt Environmental Center is to assist students in mastering science concepts and processes through the integration of science disciplines in studying the environment. Our goal, from the Florida Environmental Education Act, is that the students "come to know the natural world as a complex system that must be cared for." As we carry out our mission and work toward this goal, we also further the strategic aims of the School District of Escambia County, Florida, which are the following (1) highest student achievement (2) a safe learning and working environment (3) a high performing work force, and (4) an efficient and effective system. Find out more about the School District of Escambia County at www.escambia.k12.fl.us.
Thanks for Making Night of Nature A Success!
The Roy Hyatt Environmental Center Annual Night of Nature was held Friday, March 10, 2017 and was a huge success! We had approximately 800 visitors and volunteers come out for this fun-filled family night!
There were owls and hawks from the Wildlife Sanctuary of Northwest Florida to observe! Many people met some of the resident reptiles from RHEC and even held one of the snakes! Other visitors joined the Escambia Amateur Astronomy Association to look through telescopes in order to view the beautiful night sky including the full moon! Many of our visitors went for a hike down the dark trails led by one of our trained guides. There were stops along the trail where guest "Naturalists" educated visitors about night creatures such as nocturnal spiders and insects, the ever curious raccoon, the sly fox, as well as the invasive Cuban tree frog. Visitors also had a picnic dinner of hotdogs, chips, water, and baked goods.
Thank you to all who came out and visited or volunteered at this awesome event! It takes visitors and volunteers alike to make this such an amazing night!
Our next event is our Annual Open house which is scheduled for Saturday, September 30, 2017 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm! Hope to see many of you here!
Honoring the Past! Celebrating the Present! Building the Future!
Honoring the Past! Celebrating the Present! Building the Future!
On December 19 and 20, 2016 the main Roy Hyatt Environmental Center building was demolished. At the RHEC we are having mixed emotions; sad to see the past memories and history of the old building go, presently working to educate 6000-7000 students outdoors and with the use of our amazing Outdoor Education Classroom (funded by an IMPACT100 grant in 2011), and excited for the future prospect of the new updated building which will better meet our needs. Estimated timeline for commencement of construction of the new building is Fall of 2017 with a completion date estimated to be late spring of 2018. We plan to have a grand opening of the new building in conjunction with a celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Roy Hyatt Environmental Center in the Fall of 2018!
"In every walk with nature one receives far more than one seeks." - John Muir
Spring Is In The Air at RHEC
Spring is here! The flowers are blooming, birds are singing, and even a cold snap cannot deter the butterflies. We have had many butterflies visiting already this year! Common Sulphur butterflies, Black Swallowtail male and female butterflies, Hairstreak butterflies, Tiger Swallowtail butterflies, and even a Red Admiral butterfly among others. We have seen bluebirds, cedar waxwings, robins, male and female cardinals, yellow rumped warblers, mourning doves, mockingbirds,blue jays, red shouldered hawks, barred owls, great horned owls, and even snowy egrets and blue herons at the pond!
If you love the spring like we do then here are some ideas to get you and your family outside:
- Go on a hike in the woods or even a walk through a park
- Go camping
- Go to the beach
- Go kayaking or canoeing
- Plant a garden

About RHEC
In 1968, the first Environmental Center to later be named in honor of Roy Hyatt opened to students in Escambia County, Florida. In 1980, land at the present site on Tobias Road was acquired from the federal government. The main building houses a microscope lab, reptile room, large classroom, and office space. Other buildings used in current instructional programs include the old library which has been transformed into a classroom, the bird bus used for bird watching activities, the butterfly gazebo, and the newly completed outdoor education classroom. The instructional program for the 2014-2015 school year includes field trips and curriculum appropriate for 2nd and 5th grade student field trips.
Currently the RHEC is opened from August through June according to the academic calendar of the School District of Escambia County, Florida. During those months it is opened Monday through Friday for educational field trips by appointment only. RHEC is not open to the public.

FINAL IN 15 INNINGS: BLOOM. SOUTH 7, JEFFERSONVILLE 6. Joe Crider game-winning single to left scored Gage Rogers, who had a leadoff single. Issac Barrow sacrificed Gage to second. Great, great pitching job in relief by Jack Drew for the win, throwing an astonishing 11 innings and allowing just one run.
END FOURTEENTH: South mounted a two-out threat after Austin Knapp got hit by a pitch and Nolan Rogers singled to left to put men on first and second, but nothing came of it.
END THIRTEENTH: You guessed it. Still 6-6. South just turned its fourth double-play for the game, and it was the second time Jeff lined into a twin-killing in the infield.
END TWELFTH: 6-6, still.
END ELEVENTH: Still 6-6.
END TENTH: Panthers still tied up at 6-6 with Jeffersonville.
END NINTHTH: Still tied 6-6.
END EIGHTH: Still tied, 6-6. Jeff threatened but didn't score. After singles by Nolan Fertig and Damin Smith left men on first and third with one out, South pitcher Jack Drew came up with consecutive huge strikeouts.
END SEVENTH: South 6, Jeffersonville 6. A one-out double to the fence in center by Nick Gallagher, the game's first extra-base hit, and subsequent lined single to left by Drew Ellis gets the Red Devils another tally, though Ellis was then thrown out at home on a nice 7-5-2 relay by South. And that was crucial because South then staged a stirring rally to tie in the bottom of the inning. Austin Knapp and Nolan Rogers had a one-out singles and, after a walk to Jordan Parrott loaded the bases, Knapp scored on Gage Rogers' fielder's choice, Issac Barrow and Tyler Zoltewicz both came up with clutch RBI singles to tie the game. South then tried a run-down steal to get the winning run home, but Jeffersonville executed well and got pinch-runner Kyle Carpenter at home.
END FIFTH: Jeffersonville 5, South 3. Jeffersonville jumped all over South reliever Logan Rodgers for three straight singles for a run and added another run on a sac fly. Jack Drew then shut the door. Clay Riggins, in his first game back from a bout of mono, threw very well as the South starter today. He went four innings and allowed zero earned runs while fanning five and walking just one. Jeff starter Trent Astle has been very tough, too, getting stronger as he's gone along. He had a streak of five straight strikeouts going before Nolan Rogers reached him for a walk, stole second, stole third and scored on brother Gage's lined single to right.
END SECOND: Jeffersonville 3, South 2. Panthers put together four hits — one of which was Nolan Rogers' second hit of the game to set a South career record for hits at 115. Tyler Zoltewicz and Joe Crider delivered back-to-back lined singles to lead things off, then Todd Richardson lined a one-out single to left that scored Zoltewicz. Rogers then plated Crider with a sharply struck, two-out, record-setting, RBi ground single to right.
END FIRST: Jeffersonville 3, South 0. The game should still be scoreless, but a dropped third strike coupled with a bad throw to first by South catcher Grady Hughes prolonged the inning and allowed the first run to score with two outs. Then, with two men in scoring position, it appeared left fielder Tyler Zoltewicz didn't clearly see Nolan Fertig's looper that fell in to for the inning's third single score two more. Nolan Rogers tied South's career hit record at 114 with a shot to right but was left stranded on second.
Jeffersonville's No. 8 Red Devils, the team that knocked North's Cougars out of the regional last year, come calling to the south side first today before heading to the north side of town. No. 3-ranked Floyd Central (26-1) will be at South for the second game today. Jeff enters 16-4. We'll have updates here and via Twitter at htograham.

TAMPA — Compact rookie return specialist Clifton Smith continued to get plenty of attention Wednesday in the wake of his big return effort in Detroit.
"Maybe we're on to something. Maybe we've got our own explosive guy," coach Jon Gruden said. "We've just got to take better care of the ball. He's clearly made a difference since he's become the return man."
Smith returned a punt 70 yards for a touchdown and added a key 49-yard kickoff return in Tampa Bay's 38-20 victory Sunday. His 97-yard kickoff return against the Chiefs on Nov. 2 helped the Bucs come from behind to beat the Chiefs 30-27 in overtime.
The undrafted free agent from Fresno State averages 32.7 yards on nine kick returns and 15.6 yards on seven punt returns.
But fumbles in each of the past four games (one as a running back) are a concern. After practice, Smith stayed on the field to work on catching punts — and holding onto the ball — while getting batted by pads and with a coach in his face, trying to distract him.
Earlier, a crowd of reporters greeted Smith at his locker. He was asked whether people used to tell him he was too small to play football.
"A lot of people tell me that, but I just tell 'em I'm 6-21/2 and weigh about 210," he said. Listed in the media guide at 5-8, 190, Smith is the shortest player on the Bucs, behind veteran tailback Warrick Dunn (5-9, 187). He said Dunn has been a mentor since training camp.
"He actually has been giving me a hard time about these fumbles and saying he's going to take some money out of my paycheck," Smith said. "Warrick has always played the big brother role to me and given me a lot of guidance since I've been here."
BARBER AWARD: CB Ronde Barber was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for his stellar effort against Detroit. The 12-year veteran made two interceptions — returning one 65 yards for a touchdown, the 13th TD of his career — and had three tackles and defended two passes. This is the eighth time Barber has earned the honor and the first since 2006.
CONFIDENCE UP: RB Cadillac Williams is feeling good after returning to action in Detroit with 16 carries for 27 yards. He was out of action for more than a year with a career-threatening knee injury. "It was definitely a confidence builder for me," he said of Sunday's game. "My knee responded well and felt good, so I'm ready to rock and roll." Said Gruden: "That was really good for him. … You could witness it on the practice field. He looked different; he looked better."
MISCELLANY: The Bucs announced that they are offering a new credit card payment plan for season-ticket holders to purchase tickets for potential home playoff games. In the past, season-ticket holders had to pay for both potential home playoff games in advance. This year they will not be charged for a second game until the Bucs are guaranteed to host the NFC title game. … TE Alex Smith (ankle), S Jermaine Phillips (forearm) and QB Brian Griese (elbow) were limited in practice. WR Ike Hilliard (shoulder) participated fully.

'Ransomware' Scam Infects Woman's Computer
A Columbus woman says she nearly fell victim to a scam that said it involved the FBI.
Shirley Vannatta turned on a friend's computer to check her email.
When she did, a blank white screen appeared for 30 seconds before an FBI warning popped up.
"It says, 'You're under investigation by the FBI,' and that's kind of a startling thing to look at," Vannatta said.
The warning said the user violated pornography and child pornography charges as well as promoting terrorism.
It stated the computer could be unlocked by paying a $300 fine using a prepaid MoneyPak card.
Vannetta told her friend during dinner that his computer was infected.
"I take a couple bites and then Shirley says, 'I have something I have to tell you,'" Vannatta's friend, Clyde Welch, said. "She says you're being investigated by the FBI. It was kind of a shock!"
It didn't take long for the shock to wear off and for them to realize that it was a scam.
They did have to pay $200 to remove the virus from the computer, though.
Vannatta said she is willing to sell the old computer and buy a new one.
Anyone who is affected by the virus should know that paying the supposed "fine" will not unlock the computer.
The best way to be protected is to have an up-to-date anti-virus software installed and to use it.

We've all seen an array of Star Wars cosplay groups in our time, whether it be in person at conventions or online. I've seen the characters interpreted as steampunkers and superheroes, with a burlesque twist, and I've seen entirely gender-swapped groups. This bunch seems to be from the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con masquerade, and I've not seen anything like them.
I love the array of styles and interpretations, and I admire the creativity. Also? That glittery R2-D2 dress is my favorite.

A student who reportedly unscrewed lightbulbs in a University of Mount Union dormitory allegedly had more nefarious activities on his mind, according to city police.
Joshea L. Washington, 22, of 1311 Vienna Road S.W., Canton, was arrested at 7:15 p.m. Friday in the 400 block of West Simpson Street on two counts of burglary, a second-degree felony, and single counts of criminal mischief, drug abuse (marijuana) and possession of drug paraphernalia.
According to the arrest report, Mount Union security called officers after a Mount Union student reported that an unknown male wearing a gray hoodie came into her unlocked dorm room at around 2:30 a.m. and fled after she confronted him. A Mount Union electrician found that five lightbulbs had been unscrewed, and security traced the defendant through the use of his key card.
After a security interview, Washington admitted to having been drinking, letting himself in the building, unscrewing the lighbulbs to conceal his activities, and entering unlocked rooms with the intent to remove property.
Marijuana, a stolen iPad, a metal grinder and sandwich bags with marijuana seeds were taken as evidence, the report said.
Nichole Chantelle Eddings-Biggers, 19, of 998 Roseland Road, also was arrested, after allegedly hiding a blunt in the dorm restroom before speaking to police officers regarding the investigation.

This module provides both the API and UI to enable in-place editing of node fields. Currently, UI only supports CCK and the node body, but the API may be used in combination with the theming system to enable editing of virtually any node field.
The module works by only fetching the relevant parts of the Node Form for each edited field (or field group), via AHAH (hence the name), and takes care of reloading only the changed data once the form has been submitted (also via AHAH).
- Enable the API and the UI modules
- Apply this patch: http://drupal.org/node/335741. This is because when loading the node form via AHAH, the module loads and applies any javascript included in the form fragment, which causes havoc due to a bug in Drupal.extend() this patch resolves.
Basic Usage
In order to enable edit in-place on the node's body, go to admin/content/types/{your-type} and check the 'node body' in the Edit In Place fieldset. In order to enable edit-in-place on a CCK field, go to admin/content/types/{your-type}/{field-name} and check the 'edit in place' checkbox. You may also enter a title for the field's edit panel and an optional text which will appear when the field is empty to allow editing.

missing the point
Hi, i am perhaps missing the point, this is something different from the wysiwig or ck editor in place editing? Perhaps add a bit of explanation on where to use it for?
Edit in place allows a user
Edit in place allows a user logged in to Drupal with the right permissions to edit content on the live web page instead of in an admin page (where ckeditor and such would be). The user just clicks on the part of the page they want to edit to make the edit.

It's here! Days like today come only twice a year for Ubuntu lovers. I'm talking about the operating system hitting yet another huge milestone, Ubuntu 7.10, which brings features like read/write support for NTFS drives, desktop search, Compiz Fusion, and more! Since we've already reviewed Ubuntu 7.10 back when it was in the Beta stage I thought I would take this time to detail Kubuntu 7.10!
–New Features–
I snapped over a dozen screenshots of the new operating system so that you can see it from every aspect, and let's start with a look at what's new:
- KDE 3.5.8 – Kubuntu comes with the most up-to-date version of KDE which was just released earlier this week.
- Dolphin File Management – The new default file manager in Kubuntu makes navigating your file system extremely quick, but not meant to replace Konqueror. Some of the main features of Dolphin are: a navigation bar for quick navigation through the file system, view properties are saved for each folder, split views, undo and redo functionality, renaming of multiple selected items in one easy step. The screenshot on the left shows the main Dolphin interface, and the one on the right is connected to a remote Vista machine:
- Restricted Driver Management – Kubuntu 7.10 now includes the same Restricted Drivers Manager as Ubuntu. The Restricted Drivers Manager is a control module that allows you to simply install drivers for your hardware that are of the non-free variety. Such drivers include the NVIDIA 3D graphics driver, the ATI 3D graphics driver, Broadcom wireless drivers and more.
- OpenOffice.org 2.3 – The latest version of the open source office suite is included with Kubuntu.
- Enterprise Personal Information Management – The Enterprise version of Kontact is included for more advanced functionality.
- Strigi Desktop Search – It's kind of like using Google Desktop Search, only the results aren't shown as you type them. You must hit the "Search" button to see results, and they are displayed in your browser.
–Other Features–
Now that was a lot of stuff, I know, but to make this review more complete I thought I would snap some screenshots of other things in Kubuntu. So here they are:
- Desktop feed reading – Kubuntu includes two options for reading RSS feeds from sites: Akregator and Kontact. Whatever feeds you have in Akregator will automatically be displayed in Kontact:
- Getting your groove on – Amarok is one of my favorite media players.
- Chat with your friends – Kopete makes it easy to chat it up with all your friends, no matter what network they are on!
- Watch your back – Make sure your computer is performing the way it should by using System Guard. I mean who doesn't love seeing pretty graphs of their computer's performance?
- Wireless made easy – As soon as I started up Kubuntu I was able to connect to my wireless network…or one from my neighbors. ;) I can't believe what great strides have been made to ensure wireless access is a painless process in Ubuntu/Kubuntu.
–The Verdict–
Now I'm a KDE lover at heart, but Ubuntu's GNOME interface has really been warming up to me lately. Kubuntu is definitely a nice distribution, but it doesn't come with Compiz Fusion out-of-the-box like Ubuntu 7.10 does. That might not matter to some of you, but I'm a sucker for good eye candy. I'm going to give my KDE award this year to Mandriva 2008.

I have some skins I need to rehydrate to tan,a raccoon,and a fox.I have a jar of Enzol-B I got for such things,but have never used it.I also have a calfskin that was tanned (method unknown),but is stiff.I thought I would rehydrate and reoil it .How well does this stuff work on any of these?
Return to Tanning Category Menu
The Enzol B will work fine on skins that are hard to rehydrate, once they have been in the soak overnight then place them in the Enzol B solution for 2 to 4 hours. Pull then go to the acid pickle. This will break down non tannable proteins and will work in to the fibers of the skin opening them up, it will also make them easier to shave. On the skin that has been tanned you will use just plain water in a spray bottle lay the skin flat and flesh/skin side up and wet it down till its just damp not soaked. Then warm up some of our Tanning oil # 1 and apply it to the skin very lightly, do not use too much. This can also be thinned with mineral spirits by 25 % then applied also. Let it sit overnight then work the skin a little the next several days, if the skin is thick you can sand it down before wetting and oiling.

Florida law still blocks Cuba academic travel
Academics around the country hailed the move last week by President Barack Obama's administration to loosen travel restrictions to Cuba. But there was no celebrating by scholars at Florida's public universities. A 2006 state law -- sponsored by Sen. Mike Haridopolos and then-state Rep. David Rivera -- prohibits them from using state money or tapping into their budgets for travel to countries considered "terrorist states" by the federal government, Cuba being one. The others are Iran, Sudan and Syria. The rule applies both to state funding and non-state funds administered by public universities. Margaret Miller, director of the University of South Florida Institute for Research in Art, calls the law an embarrassment. Read more about it here.

The range of reading ability in most classrooms is wide. Providing for a variety of reading levels is one of the elementary teacher's most challenging tasks. Many programs for helping poor readers are designed to function within a clinic or special class setting and, therefore, are unsuitable or impractical for regular classrooms.
However, Michael Ford and Marilyn Ohlhausen have several suggestions for classroom teachers which utilize techniques drawn from their experience in a clinic setting
Assignments appropriate for different reading abilities
One of these involves designing group or class projects centered around themes. Source materials at a variety of reading levels are made available to students and a variety of contributions requiring different skills (oral as well as written) are called for in completing the assignment. In this way, less skilled readers are given an opportunity to participate with the possibility of equal success.
Ford and Ohlhausen point out that many poor readers have good oral language skills and can demonstrate these abilities in class discussions, brainstorming and problem solving sessions.
Other whole-class activities in which students work at the same task, but at their own level, include sustained silent reading and journal writing, both of which enable students to avoid peer comparison while working at an appropriate instructional level. Additionally, structured writing assignments, such as poetry or patterned story writing, are often successful across a range of reading abilities.
Creating a positive, challenging environment
Ford and Ohlhausen also recommend incentive programs that encourage students to challenge themselves rather than compete with others. Rewards for the amount of time spent reading, rather than the number of books read, for example, discriminate less against poor readers. They also suggested initiating a cross-grade reading program in which less able, older students work with younger readers. Such a program gives poor readers extra exposure to lower level vocabulary and simultaneously enhances their self-esteem.
The use of relaxation techniques, which include deep breathing, muscle relaxation and visual imagery training, and which most elementary students find fun, can be especially helpful for disabled readers who often experience a significant amount of stress in school.
Ford and Ohlhausen also urge teachers to create support for themselves by discussing with other teachers the problems they face and the strategies they develop for working with disabled readers.

AIKEN — DeVonte Pressley rushed for 244 yards and three touchdowns as North Augusta rolled to a 42-14 win over South Aiken on Friday night.
Pressley ran for two scores in the first half and one more in the second.
Emotions ran high in the first half as the teams combined for several penalties, including a pair that cost North Augusta touchdowns. But that didn't keep the Yellow Jackets from racking up a 28-0 lead at halftime.
DeVonte Pressley scored on runs of 15 and 8, and quarterback Trib Reece sneaked in from the 1. But the backbreaker came early in the second quarter.
South Aiken had recovered a fumble in North Augusta territory and had a chance to cut a 14-0 deficit in half. But Bo Baldwin's pass was tipped, and Robbie Morgan caught the batted ball at his 20 and took off for the Thoroughbreds' end zone.
Another Baldwin interception set up North Augusta's final score of the half.
North Augusta improved to 7-2 and 3-0 in Region 5-AAAA. South Aiken dropped to 1-8 and 1-2 in Region 5-AAAA.

Perfect Combination: Olympus XA ♥ Redscale2013-02-20 1 8 Share Tweet
I ♥ my Olympus XA, and my Olympus XA ♥ redscale. This versatile little camera is a perfect match for the fiery reds and oranges of redscale — be it home made or store bought.
It's impossible for me to pick one favorite camera, but forced at gunpoint, I might choose the Olympus XA. This poor man's LCA is a great camera: the built-in light meter ensures a perfect exposure every time.
Favorite film? Another difficult one. But when I couldn't afford cross processed slide film, and still wanted something funky, I fell in love with redscale. Easy to make, easy to get great results. Bright like fire, pastel sweet, or vintage brown — redscale can do it!
So, it won't surprise you that my favourite combination is to shoot redscale film in the Olympus XA. Thanks to that light meter I never have to think too hard about the right exposure. And thanks to the adjustable aperture and ISO slider, I still have perfect control over what look I want for my pictures.
Do I want brownish to sepia-tinted pictures? I'll just set the ISO to 50, or even 25 — the XA can handle it! Prefer deeper reds? I'll set the ISO higher, 200, 400, maybe even up to 800 if I'm feeling very daring. The ISO button takes 25 ISO steps, so plenty of room for experiments.
Thanks to shutter times of up to 15 seconds, even night shots and indoor pictures turn out great, even without flash. Deep, dark, passionate, red or even purple, but tack sharp, thanks to the excellent Zuiko lens.
So there you have it, my perfect combination: the Olympus XA with redscale film.

As major flooding continues in Australia, the Brisbane River has burst its banks, endangering thousands of homes and businesses,according to The Australian. Queensland Premier Anna Bligh is warning of a "gruesome" day ahead as the search and rescue effort resumes.
Australian Internet service providers have cautioned there could be wholesale provider outages in the wake of flash flooding in Queensland, according to Australian IT site IT News, which reported that at least one fiber link and DSL services in a few cities are down, including a major fiber link between Sydney and Brisbane which has been severed.
Status advisories indicated that the severed cable would not be repaired until flood waters subsided, which could be "several days." For more details, see ISPs Hit by Queensland Flood Crisis.
Several IT firms have stepped up in mobilizing a response to the crisis, including mirroring flood data and maps. IT firms have also responded to the call for donations from the Premier Bligh. Optus, Microsoft and Telestra have joined other businesses in making donations to assist in recovery. See The Australian's coverage of donations at Telstra Pledges $1m to Queensland Flood Fund.
Here's a look at colocation providers in Brisbane, supplied by Data Center Map, that shows the proximity of major data centers to the river.

Hi Jason
It is only the 64Bit version of iClone 5.2 that is Beta. The 32Bit version of 5.2 is the full release. Unfortunately the issue with particles in saved projects was not detected until after the release. However the temporary fix will resolve this issue and all affected projects should load again after the fix is applied.
We do apologise for the inconvenience this has caused users.

Hi Mark
Thanks for your feedback. Obviously the 64 Bit version is still Beta so there may be some issues experienced. I will pass this to the development team though.
PeterForum Administratorwww.reallusion.com
We do apologise for the inconvenience this has caused users.
Peter, the temporary fix of the fix may need another fix. It has serious issues.
1. Random freeze - proggy gets completely unresponsive to the point that I have to use task bar to terminate and lose data. Unable to replicate.
2. Shiny /reflective surfaces not displaying properly - e.g. Kane's face & Dark sunglasses accessory.
I only have 32 bit installed.
I think the rush to beat release deadlines/milestones is hurting the app stability. For production strength apps am of the view: "Better late and stable". Else people will lose trust in the app for pro use and go back to wait/see tinkering mode.
I clone5 is awsome and just needs to be stabilized. Using it heavily. Thx.
Cheers & Thx.
PS: [Low priority] Forum topics are all over the place. Iclone 5.2 issues in different threads... Getting chaotic.. Some reorganization may be needed.
PS: [Low priority] Forum topics are all over the place. Iclone 5.2 issues in different threads... Getting chaotic.. Some reorganization may be needed.
Thanks for the feedback.
I'm not able to reproduce the issues you mention unfortunately.
A couple of things to try though:
Please ensure you have the latest graphics drivers installed. When a new iClone update is released it can be incompatible with your current drivers, so it is always worth checking for new ones.
Also remember to check your Preferences (CTRL-P). You may find that some Shader Options are now disabled that were previously enabled before the update.
PeterForum Administratorwww.reallusion.com
Until then the temporary solution should resolve most issues currently being reported.

Sig's Lagoon Keeping Sundance, Beloved San Marcos Store, Alive
The future home of the "Sundance annex," aka upstairs at Sig's Lagoon
Photo by Chris Gray
A big part of Texas music history went dark this past weekend, when Sundance Records went out of buisness after 35 years. But thanks to the San Marcos record store's strong Houston connection, part of its legacy - in fact, a large part of its inventory - is coming here.
Sig's Lagoon, the Midtown record store across from the Continental Club, has inherited Sundance's stock and will rechristen its upstairs loft as the "Sundance Records annex" in a few weeks, Sig's owner Tomas Escalante says. He has already currently moved most of Sig's existing vinyl stock downstairs and is building new racks to accommodate the approximately 10,000 LPs that represents the first part of the Sundance inventory to be transferred.
That number represents a "drop in the bucket" of the inventory Sig's is taking from Sundance, says Escalante. The Sundance annex will also display an "endless" amount of posters and other collectibles Sundance owners Bobby and Nancy Barnard accumulated in their store, which opened in 1977 on the San Marcos courthouse square. Later, Sundance moved to across the street from Southwest Texas State University, (now just Texas State University).
The 21st Century has not been an easy time for physical music sales in general, and mom-and-pop music stores in particular. After years of trying to change with the times, and accumulating one of the most enviable collection of music memorabilia in the state, Sundance's time finally ran out.

"The freshmen in college right now, they were six years old in 1999 when Napster emerged," Sundance manager and former Houston Press/Rocks Off music writer Greg Ellis told the San Marcos Daily Record. "Their entire life where they've been aware of music, the idea of paying for music has just been alien to them."
When the end came, it was big news around Central Texas.
"It's more than a store," Kent Finlay, owner of nearby music venue Cheatham Street Warehouse, told the Austin American-Statesman. "It's a piece of our soul."
Photo by Chris Gray
Back at Sig's, getting ready for the move, "the upstairs is just about empty," Escalante says.
Escalante hopes to have the first part of the Sundance stock ready for sale by Record Store Day on Saturday, April 21. He's lined up the Allen Oldies Band and Light Rock Express to play, plus a performance and book-signing by former Spirit and Heart member Mark Andes. Bobby Barnard, who once ran a Budget Records & Tapes on Westheimer, will be on hand as well.
Sig's will even keep Sundance T-shirts in stock, part of the deep personal connection the two stores share. Escalante worked at Sundance while attending Southwest Texas.
Later, when Escalante was with Houston-based distributor Southwest Wholesale, he began dating a girl he knew from their hometown of Corpus Christi, who was then working at Sundance. He would talk to her by phone and in person when he came by to drop off Southwest's Sundance order; today, they are married with two kids.
"The store's been literally a part of my life since 1991," says Escalante. "Seeing it go was sad, but we'll keep it going here. We won't let it die."

Auckland Museum's lasting legacy - thanks to Lottery Grants
Media Release – 17 April 2014
Auckland Museum's lasting legacy - thanks to Lottery Grants Board
Auckland War Memorial Museum will take its WWI centenary commemorations 'to the people' after receiving significant funding from the Lottery Grants Board.
The $3.8million funding will enable the Museum to bring its major WWI Centenary project to life by redeveloping two commemorative gallery spaces and undertaking a community outreach programme.
The outreach programme, comprising displays, digital elements and curatorial expertise, will be out in communities throughout the WWI centenary period encouraging families to share their recollections, records and experiences of war. These memories will be captured in the Museum's Online Cenotaph database and form part of a lasting legacy for future generations.
The outreach programme will also add value to the Museum's partners' existing WWI programmes, including those of the RSA, Public Libraries, National War Memorials, schools, local interest groups and other museums.
Auckland Museum Director Roy Clare says, "Future Museum, our 20 year strategic plan, expresses our goal to reach 'beyond our walls'. We are thrilled that the Lottery Grants Board has affirmed our vision to engage with people and communities. Through this exciting and generous grant we will be able to extend the Museum's capacity. The investment will enable more people to share information and spread knowledge; to reflect on the sacrifices of those who have gone before us; and to commemorate the substantial international role played by our province and by our nation."
Alongside the community outreach programme, a new enquiry centre will be developed onsite to provide a home base for commemoration. It will sit alongside an enhanced learning space for WWI discovery, the primary aim being to facilitate remembrance and reflection of the New Zealand WWI experience through inquiry.
Both projects form part of a creative, inspirational and sustained WWI centenary programme titled He toa taumata rau: Courage has many resting places, which runs to 2019. However, the development, now made possible by the Lottery funding, will be future-orientated in terms of content and learning engagement, and will outlive the commemorative period.
Since opening in 1929 the Museum has honoured the original intention of commemoration and memorial to those who served in the First World War and successive conflicts.

Maria Sharapova refused to give up on her hopes of winning another Wimbledon title in the aftermath of her latest shock exit from the All England Club.
The 27-year-old Russian has now failed to get beyond the last 16 at Wimbledon in seven of her last eight appearances, losing four times in the last 16 and three times in the second round.
It is 10 years since Sharapova famously shocked Serena Williams as a fresh-faced 17-year-old in the 2004 final.
She reached the semi-finals for the next two years, but since then Sharapova's only remotely successful Wimbledon campaign came in 2011 when she made the final for the second time.
