Born in Cranbrook, Kate Pullinger attended high school on Vancouver Island, briefly attended McGill University and worked in a Yukon copper mine in order to earn money for travel. Having taken up residence in London, England, in 1982, Pullinger is widely known as co-writer for Jane Campion's novelized version of her movie The Piano.
Kate Pullinger's own novels include The Last I Saw Jane, Where Does Kissing End?, Weird Sister, A Little Stranger (McArthur & Co., 2004) and The Mistress of Nothing (McArthur & Co. 2009) about an English maidservant who experienced unimagined freedom while escorting the tuburcular Lady Duff Gordon in 1860s Egypt. This novel received the Governor-General's Award for Fiction in 2009. The Collected Stories of Kate Pullinger (McArthur & Co, 2012) was her next release.
[BCBW 2012] "Fiction"
The Last Time I Saw Jane (Little, Brown $19.95)
Cranbrook-born Kate Pullinger has nine titles to her credit, including the novelization of Jane Campion's film 'The Piano' which she co wrote with Campion in just six weeks. At 34, Pullinger lives in London, England and suffers from the classic ex patriot's dilemma. I'm not 100 per cent happy in England, says Pullinger, who left Canada when she was 20. Part of me wants to come back to B.C., yet I've never lived there as an adult.
In her latest novel, The Last Time I Saw Jane (Little, Brown $19.95), Pullinger explores the predicament of being caught between two countries and the search for a sense of place. When an affair with Jack Campbell, an African American documentary television producer, turns nasty, Audrey Robbins, a Canadian journalist living in London, starts recounting her adolescence in B.C. Her coming-of-age anecdotes are set against a backdrop of rainy oceans and sprawling mountains in sharp contrast to dirty, crowded London. Audrey must suddenly make a trip back to Victoria to deal with a family emergency. At the same time, she starts reading and dreaming about James Douglas, fur trader and B.C.'s first Governor, and his wife Amelia. I wanted there to be a historical strand in this novel and I wanted it to do with the colonial history of B.C., says Pullinger, who grew up outside Victoria. Having lived in the U.K. for nearly 15 years now, one thing that preoccupies me is the loss of the British Empire. The U.K. still hasn't come to terms with that.
It wasn't until Pullinger had been away from home for over a decade that she became interested in B.C. history and picked up a copy of Jean Barman's The West Beyond the West. I remember reading Barman's book in bed late one night and very early on, Barman briefly mentions Douglas. In the space of one sentence she says 'Born in British Guiana but educated in Scotland, Douglas was the son of a Scots merchant and a coloured woman.' And Amelia Douglas's father was an Irish fur trader and her mother a Cree. I was really shocked, says Pullinger, who had learned about Douglas in school, because I'd never known about his mixed British history. Somehow this just leapt off the page. The pair of them came to embody empires, conflicts, colonialism, race and history for me. There's a line in [my] book about how their bodies span the abyss, with the past and the future, what was Canada and what Canada became.
Although James Douglas qualifies as B.C.'s 'founding father', Pullinger had problems finding material on him. It's almost as if people have decided that he's an uninteresting Victorian patriarch (which he probably was in some ways) and not worthy of further study. At one point in her research, Pullinger was very excited when she came across an index item marked Douglas' 'personal journal'. I thought this is it I'm finally going to find out who he really was, recalls Pullinger. I ordered it up and it arrived. It was a diary where Douglas had recorded the weather every day for a year!
As The Last Time I Saw Jane delves into the lives of Amelia and James Douglas, tragedy after tragedy unfolds in Audrey's life, until the surprising ending offers an untragic twist. Pullinger maintains that most of Audrey's angst ridden life is fiction. Audrey's life is much like my life; but her life is a darker version of my life. For example, both my parents are alive and I'm happily married, whereas Audrey's got this disaster happening with her parents and she's anything but happily married. I suppose it's like writing about your darkest fears. A very good friend of mine, after reading The Last Time I Saw Jane, said 'I had no idea you were so unhappy!' to which I replied 'But I'm not!'
Pullinger's latest collection of short stories, My Life as a Girl in a Men's Prison (Little, Brown Canada $19.95), is loosely based on a year she spent as a writer in residence at England's HMP Gartree prison for men. The prison was a place of incredible stories and tragedies, says Pullinger, who got to know many of the inmates who had killed their wives or girlfriends. The walls dripped with remorse. Several of the stories in My Life as a Girl in a Men's Prison deal with the aftermath of domestic violence that Pullinger witnessed. When the mother of a family has been killed and the father is in prison, the children are left in a very difficult position.
A Little Stranger (2004)
Married for a dozen years to Nick, a successful restaurateur who she has known since age 18, the heroine of A Little Stranger inexplicably leaves her husband and their healthy two-year-old Nick in London in order to search of her homeless alcoholic mother, Ireni, in British Columbia.

Looking to scale new heights? Instructables tutorial for 3D printed climbing holds demonstrates how to create custom molds for your favorite hobby.
"When my kids got interested in rock climbing my natural first thought was to build them a climbing wall," explains Whitney Potter, maker and 3D Printing Today Podcast host. "Okay, I like climbing as much as they do, probably more, but the kids always make a good excuse."
When given the opportunity to 3D print his own climbing holds, Potter jumped at the chance. But he quickly found that 3D printing holds was not the most effective method.
Printing took several hours. It became costly and wasteful. In order to make it stronger, the holds had to be denser and printed with 100% solid infill. But, the more solid the print, the more likely it was to fail. Potter decided to go with another method.
3D Printed Climbing
Holds Molds
Holds are typically made from a master that is carved by hand or a CNC mill. This master is used to create a silicone rubber mold in which the holds are cast using polyurethane resin. 3D Printing allowed him to skip the "master" step, and go straight for the mold. Plus, it created cheaper molds than those made from silicone.
Using TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane), he created molds for roughly a dollar a pop — compared to the $10-20 price tag for silicone molds. He also notes that thinner is better for molding:
"Print as few shells and as little infill as you can while still having a decent print as this will make it easier to unmold. All of my molds leak a little, but that's okay. The resin seeps into the mold and seals it the first time you use it."
He also suggests using polyurethane resin. It's a two-step system, and it's what the pros use. As Potter explains, this system will let you create any climbing hold you can dream of — once you have the tools of the trade. He specifically suggests free programs Meshmixer and Blender, as well as the sculpting program 3D-Coat.
Who thought a 3D printer would help you (literally) hit a new high? Looking to make your own 3D Printed Climbing Holds? Check out the full Instructables tutorial here.

2012 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree Juried Art Exhibition Winner Selected
DENVER (October 18, 2012) – The White River National Forest and its nonprofit partner Choose Outdoors today announced Cheryl St. John's "Awaiting Spring" has been selected as the official artwork to represent the 2012 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree. St. John is a Colorado-based artist.
The newly expanded art contest placed a national call to professional, emerging and youth artists to submit an artwork that fit this year's theme, "Into The Woods." Choose Outdoors received more than 100 juried art exhibition entries from 48 artists in 12 states, and five judges selected 18 winning works.
This year's contest was the first national call for artists. All 18 2012 Capitol Christmas Tree juried art exhibition winners' artwork will comprise a traveling exhibition that will accompany the Capitol Christmas Tree along its designated route from Meeker, Colo. to Washington, D.C. this November.
"This has been one of the most exciting awards of my painting career, and I'm honored that my piece, 'Awaiting Spring,' was chosen as the official artwork to represent the 2012 Capitol Christmas Tree," said St. John. "Colorado has the most beautiful landscapes in the country, and the White River National Forest inspired my depiction of a majestic Colorado winter day."
St. John was awarded a $2,000 grand prize, and an additional $2,000 cash prizes were awarded to professional and emerging artist entries. This year's Tree will hail from the White River National Forest, which is where St. John painted her winning work.
"Cheryl's philosophy and painting fit seamlessly with the mission of Choose Outdoors and this year's Capitol Christmas Tree theme. She is a very gifted plein-air artist, and her love of Colorado's open spaces really shines through her artwork," explained Carmel Koeltzow, juried art exhibition coordinator. "We received a lot of incredible submissions. All of the winners deserve recognition for their talented entries."
St. John is a fourth generation Colorado native with a great appreciation of nature and environment preservation. Her artwork will serve as the Capitol Christmas Tree song contest compilation CD official cover art, which will be hung in the Chief of the Forest Service's office for one year and then displayed in the Capitol Christmas Tree permanent collection.
"We were very pleased with the number of submissions we received and the quality of artworks we saw from the 48 individual artists," said Bruce Ward, founder of Choose Outdoors. "The entries creatively captured our 'Into the Woods' theme, and we appreciate everyone's effort and ingenuity."
To see St. John's winning artwork, visit www.CapitolChristmasTree.com. Interested media can request an interview with Cheryl St. John by emailing email@example.com.
Costs associated with the tree's transportation and tour events are made possible by contributions of cash and in-kind services by individuals, corporations and local communities.

Credit Card Center Advertiser Disclosure†
I called Chase and they denied due to high balances.
Sorry helovesyou. Same thing happened to me last month. I called to recon and they were concerned with two cards that I had high balances. When I got their letter it said "Balances on accounts are too high compared to credit limits" and "The outstanding debt on your creditaccounts is too high" those were the only reasons listed. I think once we get our balances down we should be in!
Yeah they told me a couple of my cards had high balances. Looks like we are in the same boat. I'll pay them down and then reapply.
I agree with youngandcreditworthy. When I recon'ed I focused so much on the two cards with high balances and didn't point out my overall utilization which was about 28% at the time and the 5 cards that had $0 balances. My mistake. It was only my second attempt at recon ever and the first was a pretty easy one with Barclays.
Definitely call the back door number as soon as possible. When I call to recon (I've done it with three cards this year), I've done so about an hour after apping and I tell them my name, that I just applied for their card and that I got a message saying my application is pending. Then I ask the rep if there is any additional information they need from me to to help them make their decision. At that point, they usually say something about looking over my credit report then ask questions about a couple of items (usually why did I have to file bankruptcy back in 2005 (bunch of medical bills and no health insurance at the time). I don't have any lates and I don't have any COs. Then I mention that I have worked very card on my credit since then and I usually get a comment that they agree with me. Sometimes they ask me to verify how long I have been at my job or residence or what my income is. Sometimes, they ask why I want the card. With Freedom, when I reconned, I told them I really liked their cash back feature, especially the 5% categories. It was the same answer with my Discover More card. With my Barclays US Air card, I told them I travel a lot (3-5 sometimes more trips a year) and always use US Air as they are the only carrier that flys out of my very small local airport.
The only card I have not been successful at reconning is AMEX - I think I am going to have to hold off on that one until the bankruptcy comes off my reports. My income is fine, my investments are fine, my utilization on all my current cards are 0-5%, I PIF early every month and my credit score is over 700 even with the bankruptcy but it always comes down to that all three times I've applied, even with Zync. I called the executive office three times with each decline and can't get anyone to budge.
I just applied today. Called after i got the message and recon'd. They checked EX and brought up 3 CA that they said were open. I told them they were paid, and one is in dispute. And that i also had a chase account and 4 year CC (my longest open one) with them. they then put me on hold and checked my EQ since i mentioned they are paid off on that one. Which is also my higher score. Came back and said he filled out a review and put for it to be approved and to call back in 48 to make sure it processed.
Moral of the story is, like everybody suggested, recon. It helps.

While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for Toyota vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to fix your car or truck. Anyone who operates a Toyota knows that when it comes to repairing their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do. Obviously, you didn't buy your Matrix unless you knew that you wanted Japanese engineering and a brand you can trust both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. Car aficionados know that long-lasting service is built into each Toyota, and understand that only the highest quality replacement Matrix parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing.
The thousands upon thousands of revolutions our engines make each day would eventually tear them apart without lubrication. It was early in the 20th century when the oil filter was first imagined, and your Toyota Matrix engine still uses the technology that is derived from this early invention. Your Toyota Matrix oil filter separates the engine oil and the debris that normally flows through it so that the engine can continue to remain lubricated. Without this process being performed by your oil filter, the engine oil would become increasingly dirty, highly viscous, and ineffective.
Bring your Matrix back to life with the best repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members available with enough expertise to help you select the correct Toyota Matrix part for your needs. When your Toyota needs a top quality replacement Oil Filter, there's no need to waste time looking anywhere other than the authority, Car Parts Discount. When it comes to Toyota Matrix Oil Filter parts, you can find them for 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

Author | exchange4media Chennai Bureau | Thursday, Jan 26,2006 8:21 AM
Jaya TV is promising its fans a strong dose of the two intoxications that drive consumption on the small screen: cricket and film stars. Come January 27, the MGR-NTR tourney at Sharjah, pitting stars from the film world against each other on the cricket field, will be telecast on the channel.
The Sharjah cricket stadium, immortalised in cricket fans' memories by Javed Miandad, will wear a different look on January 27. For the sizeable expatriate population from South India, most of the stars entering the field will be familiar faces. Tamil stars Vikram, Madhavan, Silambarasan, Srikanth, Abbas, Shyam, Jeyam Ravi, Arya, Jeeva and Bharath will face a Telugu side that includes Balakrishna, Dr Rajasekar, Tharun, Ravi Teja, Nithin and Manoj, among others.
And the rehearsals – sorry – net practice sessions, began in right earnest in India well in advance. Ranches International is organising the event, a part of the proceeds of which will go for charity.
Speaking to exchange4media, V Murali Raaman, VP-Programmes and Operations, Jaya TV, said, "This is the first time we are attempting something like this. If I were to comment based on the practice sessions, I'd say we can expect a high engagement cricket match on the excitement value."
The Tamil star team has been practising hard at the Gymkhana Club every evening, coached by former Tamil Nadu Ranji player Suresh Kumar. Actor Srikanth, is even playing with Indian captain Rahul Dravid's bat, sourced through his 'good friend' Lakshmipathy Balaji.
Jaya TV is also planning to telecast a curtain raiser with visuals from the practice session, on January 26, a day before the event.
Another event that marks the start of the channel's event calendar is the Pancharathna Keerthana, which will go on air on January 26, from 9:05 am. Leading Carnatic singers including the Bombay Sisters, Soumya, TV Narayanan, Neyveli Santhanagopalan, Dr N Ramani, P S Narayanan, Priya Sisters and more, were part of the classical musical do.

Yr9 dd wants to be a scientist but only wants to do double science.(31 Posts)
I'm happy that its her choice, etc but want to make sure we're both aware of future implications.
Dd is bright, Lvl 6a in most subjects at end of year 8 and her teachers say she's often working at Lvl 7. She's always enjoyed science and says she wants to be some sort of scientist when she's older but isn't any more specific than that.
Physics is her favourite subject. She's not enjoyed chemistry the last year and now says she only wants to do double science as she wants to drop chemistry.
Firstly, does it work like that? I thought double science meant she did all three subjects but just not as indepth?
What sort of degrees/careers in the science field would she not be able to do? I'm guessing medicine, vet school, biochemistry would all be out? Which is fine and quite possibly stuff she wouldn't have done anyway. I can see her doing more engineering type stuff. Would a lack of chemistry be a problem for that?
Double science will cover all three sciences, you are right.
Taking double science now won't ruin her chances of anything later.
There is a huge leap from GCSE to A-Levels, to the point where you hardly recognise them as being the same subjects you studied at GCSE.
Chemistry is highly regarded at A-Level, and your DD may end up taking it anyway, as the sciences and maths back one another up so well.
I'd say leave her to the double science award for now, by the time she wants to do A-Levels, she may have an entirely different outlook, and double science won't hold her back at all.
As NorwaySpruce said.
Thing is, if she wants to do A level sciences triple will prepare her much better than double. It's not essential but to be honest I'd be recommending her to do triple if she wants to continue with sciences. It will also put her in a better position to know if she really wants to continue with science at A level. If she finds triple too hard then she should look in other directions.
There shouldn't be a problem with only doing double science, however, as previous posters have said this doesn't mean she misses chemistry just does all three to less depth. The only thing it might be worth checking is what the 6th form requirements are (although I know these things change all the time).
Going back a long time here but at my school if you wanted to do sciences at A level or beyond you had to do the three separately. Anyone expressing an interest in related careers like those you mention would have been told they must do all three.
Since your dd will still have to do Chemistry as part of the double science, it seems like it might not be worth dropping it.
She will do less physics if she does double. She will of course also do less chemistry so it is up to her whether her like for physics outweighs her dislike for chemistry. If somebody is capable enough academically and may want to do a science subject later then triple science is usually the better option but double does n't preclude it. Physics at more advanced levels require a mathematical mind.
Do you have an idea where she might go for sixth form? If so, what is the norm for people doing science A levels there? Back in the day, I went from a school where we had no choice but to do double (and got A*A*), to a sixth form in a different school where virtually everyone else had done triple. There was a hell of a lot of catching up to do in the first term.
To get to physics A level, she will have to do more work in the sixth form if she does double that if she gets ahead a bit with triple. Unless that pushes out other options that she really want to do, I would stick with triple if possible. Doing double won't close doors, but it will make them heavier to open!
Yes, DD1 got stuck with double (due to being dyslexic and having an idiot of a HOD)
She's doing three sciences at A level and is busy reading through the textbook of stuff they didn't do in double.
She's not bothered because she understands it without needing to be taught it. Scientists for parents, talk here rarely goes below A level, so she has an unfair advantage.
However, there is a lot of it. Walking into A levels if you don't live in house where science is unavoidable having done double would be a shock.
She's not enjoyed chemistry the last year and now says she only wants to do double science as she wants to drop chemistry.
I'm way out of date but is Y8 Chemistry a reliable indicator for GCSE? It is dangerous to assume that subjects carry on the same groove, as they often don't.
Has she looked at the syllabus for GCSE?
Back in the day, I did double award science at gcse, science a levels all at A and had 3 offers to do medicine. Wasn't a problem at all from that point of view but jump to A level was possibly a little bit harder than if I'd done single sciences.
Check with where she will be studying. A number of places want the triple. She will also have a lot more work to do, catching up on things missed out when doing the double, on top of the work assigned.
With the double in the first year it's science and all three are covered in brief. The second year is additional science, which again all 3 are studied, and if I remember correctly more is covered in the biology part. With both years, chemistry is taught more than the physics.
Double science covers all 3 areas but you only get 2 grades , triple you'd get 3 grades. Some schools would expect her to do triple if she wanted to take any sciences at A level.
I would check on how many lessons a week are allocated to double and how many to triple. A lot of schools have cut down hours for double science so it's the same amount of work to be covered in less time. Harder for the kids and teachers. Triple science is actually recommended as the easier option as the content is sometimes a bit harder but there's lots more time to do it
You need to work backwards from where she'll go for sixth form - some places - incl my own DCs' schools- will only let you do science A level if you've done triple science. I know that's not the case at sixth from colleges as that would be too restrictive, but some schools say that for a reason - it's a big big leap and the better prepared you are the easier the transition ( 2 of my 3 are science degree students, so I speak from some expereince)
I think a certain amount of the university view would be based on whether the school had offered triple science. Double science is ok to do science A levels, but if triple science is on offer (not all schools offer it) then a university may query why this path wasn't followed - does it indicate lack of ability/commitment for example?
I did double science (school didn't offer them separately) and went on to do Natural Sciences at Cambridge, they weren't interested in my GCSEs as far as I know - only my A-levels. So as long as the double science doesn't cut off her chance to do it at A-Level, no problem, although there is the point above that they might question why she didn't do triple if she had the chance - if the response is 'because it clashed with geography and I have an interest in geology' probably fine, if it's 'because I wanted to do less chemistry' probably not fine!
She will indeed have to cover all science if she does double science. I can't comment on whether having done triple would have made A-levels easier but physics and chemistry A-Level were OK from the double in my experience. They basically start GCSES by telling you that everything they said before was so simplified it's actually wrong, same again for A-level then for Uni!
I would say that at Uni physics is probably essential for understanding chemistry, not so much the other way around. Maths is by far the most important thing for physics at A-level and beyond. My school didn't do further maths at A-level either, I suffered much more for that at Uni than the double science GCSE!
As for careers, geophysicists are much in demand in industry, I'm sure there are lots of others, most of the ones that spring to mind for me are academic though - astronomer, astrophysicist, particle physicist etc. I do know someone with a medical physics degree who went on to work in radiography. Buy a few issues of Nature and New Scientist and look through the job adverts - it's a wonderful world of science jobs out there!
I think she'd want to carry on to sixth form at her school which would be fine with double science. At the minute I think she'd want to do physics at a level. Not sure about other a levels but it could all change between now and then.
Will buy some copies of new scientist etc and have a look at jobs, that's a great idea thanks.
Have just told dd that double science would still involve chemistry. I do feel sorry for her. I hated chemistry and was so glad to drop it.
There's a big difference between KS3 physics, GCSE and A level. It basically gets more and more mathematical. Chemistry I genuinely think is the most useful science (I'm a biology teacher and I did all the sciences for A level). It is the crossover science having strong links with physics and biology. A good understanding of chemistry aids understanding of physics and biology. I know some private schools allow you to choose two separate sciences and drop one. I would never recommend dropping chemistry. In fact double award would be preferable.
When I was in year 3 at secondary school (now called year 9) I won the prize for physics. To me it was all common sense/obvious. By the time I finished the A level it was may weakest subject out of the three sciences because I just wasn't confident enough in the maths element.
Hmmm, well I guess its possible that as she progresses she may end up not liking physics as well.
Its so hard when they're still so young and they're having to make decisions which could affect which degree, career they can have.
I think that's the point at GCSE level, options need to be kept open as much as possible so that they have the freedom to change their minds. I would agree that chemistry is the most useful science for relevance to the other two. Any science at this level can be boring, especially if it involves learning of facts without the teacher being able to make the context of these facts seem interesting.
Oh yes and don't forget the crossover of chemistry with geography!
I agree with many of the posters here. I think my advice would be dependent on how interested she is in her other options. Yes, keeping options open is desirable, but if she is struggling to choose other subjects that interest her, choosing the triple science route would make the step up to A levels easier. Is she good at Maths? If she were to take Physics A level in the 6th form with a view to using it in a career, she would also need to take Maths A level, and preferably Further Maths too. She wouldn't NEED to take any other science A levels unless she was heading for a career/university course that needed them (eg Chemistry would be needed for nearly all Medicine degrees).
Sometimes having a good pass at GCSE for Physics & Maths, but lower grades in Chemistry gives students more confidence about going on to study at A level. It is clearer to everybody where her strengths lie having 3 separate grades for the different sciences & being good at one science doesn't mean she would be as good in the others...
In terms of "science packages" for A level, Chemistry is often most useful if studied with Biology, whereas Physics and Maths support each other.
It's great to hear about girls interested in the sciences - she might be interested in: www.stemettes.org
The Russell Group of universities have issued a document about choosing the right A levels for different degree courses. Although this is VERY premature for those in Year 8, I know it is useful to have the information to hand when you want to start thinking about subject choices:
also consider how many at her school do triple vs double, and what sort of a class/set she might be in if she just did double. Sometimes all the children who are really interested and enthusiastic about science are doing triple, and the ones that are left in double are the ones who are less keen or less able, which can then make for an unsatisfying experience for those who were capable of triple but chose to do double, and they actually end up getting less out of it/enjoying it less than they would have if they had just done triple (or if they had done double, but with the more keen and enthusiastic children that might have been in their top set Yr 9 classes but went into triple instead).
DS did chose double science as he wanted to do 2 languages at GCSE and timetables clashed, he could have done triple if not.
To do science A levels though from the double science route he did need A/A* whereas with triple science it had to be at least grade B.
He found that the most important thing that they wanted for a physics degree was at least an A in A level maths, and the GCSE's didn't seem to affect anything as he had done the A level physics anyway.
That's an interesting point about who else may be in her class if she does double.
She already complains about kids messing about in her non-streamed classes such as music and art. I mean really messing about, hitting her over the head with chairs, telling the teachers to fuck off, etc. she doesn't want to be in a science gcse group with them at all.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Software giant Adobe ( ADBE), which is due to report third-quarter earnings on Tuesday, has become (on many levels) a very interesting story. Without a doubt, this company still has a say not only in the world of digital media, but also in content distribution and consumption.But it's unclear, though, whether management can effectively prioritize the company's collective ambitions. You see, over the past couple of years, Adobe has struggled to grow revenue and margins on its once-dominant creative suite applications -- the one that includes popular titles like Pagemaker and Dreamweaver. Free offerings from rivals like Google ( GOOG) and software alternatives from Apple ( AAPL) and Microsoft ( MSFT), began eating into Adobe's market share. Not to mention, each of these companies had cloud-distribution advantages, an area Adobe had yet to adopt.

We're using iPad2 in our corporate environment. My problem is with exchange and invitations.
Our director is getting new meeting invites. but the Push alert displays "2,049 invitations View or Open" when he clicks view it shows "4 new invitations".
So the problem is the ipad push message displays every invite he's ever gotten instead of just the ones he's received.
Anyone have any idea how to get it to display the actual number of new invites. Maybe a setting somewhere to only display the past 30 days invites?

We're on exchange 07 So its still a problem. I don't think it has anything to do with MS I think its just an apple issue for the moment.

BTW I sent the thread with 176Million invites to my director with an email title "You're not that popular"
He laughed and said it was ok. He was just concerned that it was something the did to his ipad on accident.

Grabner, Islanders sail past PanthersApr 17, 2013 - 3:42 AM
Mark Streit added a goal and an assist and Evgeni Nabokov recorded 26 saves to help the Islanders notch a point for an eighth consecutive game (6-0-2) and move three points ahead of the crosstown rival Rangers for the Eastern Conference's No. 7 seed with five games remaining in the regular season. The Isles also remained one point behind sixth-place Ottawa after the Senators downed Carolina on Tuesday.
New York, which hasn't made the playoffs since the 2006-07 season, also received goals from Matt Moulson and Radek Martinek in dealing the lowly Panthers a third straight defeat.
"It's a lot of fun to play in these meaningful games at the end of the year," Moulson said. "Each one has been intense, no matter who we're playing. It's been that way for the last three weeks."
Marcel Goc finished with a goal and an assist and Dmitry Kulikov netted a power-play tally for Florida. Jacob Markstrom stopped just 13-of-18 shots before being removed early in the second period in favor of Scott Clemmensen, who turned back all 13 chances he faced.
"It's never fun to get pulled as a goalie," Markstrom said afterward. "Anybody's that's been a goalie and been pulled, it's embarrassing. It's tough."
Moulson's successful redirection of Thomas Hickey's shot gave the Islanders a 1-0 lead just over eight minutes into the game, and a costly double-minor high-sticking penalty to Florida defenseman Eric Gudbranson not long afterward allowed New York to increase the margin further.
The infraction gave the Isles a 5-on-3 power play for more than a minute. While still on the two-man advantage, Streit buried a slap shot from the right circle past Markstrom with 6:01 left in the opening frame for a two-goal differential.
With Gudbranson still serving the penalty, Grabner got by a pair of Florida defenders after taking in a terrific outlet pass from Andrew MacDonald and converted the breakaway attempt to put New York up 3-0 with 3:13 remaining in the session.
"We came out strong, especially in the first 10 minutes," Grabner remarked.
Florida was able to enter the first intermission with a bit of momentum when Kulikov fired a well-placed wrist shot over Nabokov's right shoulder with the Panthers on a power play 85 seconds after Grabner's first goal.
It turned out to be short-lived, though, after the Islanders tallied twice within a 14-second span early in the second period.
Martinek's one-timer in transition from the right point with 3:19 elapsed in the stanza extended the lead to 4-1, and Grabner scored on a backhander off a Florida giveaway shortly after the ensuing faceoff to place the Panthers in an even larger hole.
Goc cut the deficit slightly by slipping Tomas Kopecky's feed into an open net with Nabokov taken out of position at the 7:44 mark of the second period, but the Panthers got no closer despite outshooting New York by a 12-7 count in the final 20 minutes.
The Islanders killed off a pair of third-period penalties to sew up the win, with Florida's Brian Campbell hitting the post on one of those opportunities.
Game Notes
The win was Jack Capuano's 82nd as the Islanders' head coach, putting him past Terry Simpson and into sole possession of second place in franchise history. Al Arbour stands atop the list with 740 victories ... Tomas Fleischmann assisted on both Florida goals and now has 10 points (3G, 7A) over his past nine games ... Panthers defenseman Filip Kuba sat out the game with a lower-body injury, while forward Peter Mueller was inactive due to his wife giving birth to the couple's first child ... The Islanders improved to 16-3-3 when scoring first this season, while the Panthers fell to 3-20-4 when giving up the game's initial goal.

After spending some time discussing ways to make the most of your time in Sin City, I thought it might be nice to shift our attention toward the great Midwest, as I throw out some suggestions for vacation ideas in the third biggest city in the US, home of the only river in the world that flows the wrong way, the birthplace of the soap opera and home of the first blood bank in America (which I'm sure you were wondering. You're welcome.). . .
Chicago. If you're looking for a massive departure from bay-life, Chi-Town might be just what the doctor ordered, and I thought I'd take some time to lay out some of the ways you might best spend your time in the Windy City.
- Feed Your Brain – There's tons of educational entertainment to be had in Chicagoland, including:
- The Shedd Aquarium, featuring more than 32 thousand animals from beluga whales to tiny jellyfish
- The Adler Planetarium, where you and the family can enjoy stunning shows that bring you closer to the beautiful and mysterious sights of our universe
- The Field Museum, currently featuring the largest T-Rex skeleton ever found (!) and home to ancient Egyptian artifacts, the hall of birds, the "Pawnee Earth Lodge" and much more (not to mention 3D IMAX shows).
- And Much More! Explore Choosechicago.com to see what all there is on offer and you can search calendars of upcoming events for a wide range of vacation activities—one of which is bound to pique your interest!
- Feed Your Tummy – I don't know about you, but when I'm on vacation, that means I have a bit of extra time for one of my favorite hobbies: eating! Make sure you sample some of the tasty delicacies on offering next time you find yourself in the "City of the Big Shoulders."
There's something for everybody, whether you're a serious foodie looking to snag some exquisite cuisine from top-tier steakhouses like "Bavette's Bar and Boeuf" or you just have to try some of Garrett's gourmet popcorn. Not to mention the plethora of food festivals (including the largest free outdoor food festival in the world: "The Taste of Chicago").
- Support the Arts – Chicago features a wide range of thrilling performances—from contemporary theater to modern sculpture, there's plenty to keep art-lovers occupied during the duration of your stay in Chicago.
Head over to the Art Institute of Chicago to check out all of your favorite post-impressionists (along with crowd pleaser: Grant Wood's American Gothic) before swinging by The PrivateBank Theatre to catch a performance of Hamilton (shows start this September!). No matter what your artistic leanings may be, there's definitely something for you, so make sure you check out the calendar of upcoming events at broadwayinchicago.com to see what's coming next!
- Tear it Up – If you're looking for a good place to blow of steam, Chicago's your spot. Personally, I like to go pretty hard on vacation. Not the whole time, mind you. Just a taste, is all. Which is why I like to invest in the "deluxe package" every so often. . .
So bring the whole crew, rent a gorgeous stretch limo from chitownlimos.net, and hit the town. Chicago's got tons of great eateries and drinkeries to choose from, and there's no reason the party shouldn't last all night when you're letting your hair down and having a blast with friends and loved ones.
I know I've only really had time to scratch the surface here, but hopefully this at least helps spark a couple ideas, so if you find yourself itching for a getaway from the bay, you might consider making your way east and sampling some of that Chicago life during a week away from the hustle and bustle of the daily grind.
Stay tuned for more vacation brainstorming, and let me know if you've vacationed anywhere recently that you'd recommend to anyone else looking to "step out" for a minute.

Director Gautham Vasudeva Menon, popular as Gautham, is an expert in moulding police subjects. The Telugu audiences had tasted his directorial abilities through 'Gharshana' with Victory Venkatesh as hero. Gautham had brought several police stories, with many top stars in Tamil and Malayalam and this time he had directed a film with Padma Shri, Kamal Hassan for a Tamil film called Vettiyadu Velayadu. In fact, it is a typical investigative drama. Though there are action scenes they were quite stylish and the hero remains to be an encounter specialist.
Another interesting feature is that over 90 per cent of the film was shot in New York. With the craze on Kamal Hassan and also on Gautham among the Telugu audiences, KVV Satyanarayana and Sakhamuri Panduranga Rao thought of remaking the film in Telugu and in view of the difficulties in obtaining permission from the authorities abroad and the financial difficulties, they had decided to dub the film and the film was released in Telugu on the name of the hero Raghavan.
Raghavan (Kamal Hassan) is a sincere deputy commissioner of police in Hyderabad. nand Raj (Prakashraj) was his best friend and is a senior. Raghavan falls in love with Meenakshi (Kamalini) and some local goons kill her due to professional ivalry.
Raghavan takes revenge with the help of Anand Raj. After some time, Anand Raj seeks Raghavan's assistance after his daughter Rani goes missing. Raghavan investigates and finds that she was murdered. Later, Anand Raj and his wife leave for New York. n information that both of them were executed in the US, the local police send Raghavan o collect their bodies as he is the only well-wisher. Raghavan suspects that there is something ehind the elimination of the entire family.

Tyson's artwork is focused on movement, change, and the environment; and his pieces explore this new type of harmony. He believes his job as a painter is to capture the change of the world as it is occurring; and he combines elements of abstract expressionism, color-field painting and spontaneity into his canvas wall art. Rural and urban scenes are in constant transition in Tyson's paintings, taking the viewer from what was, to what may be.
Do not miss this fantastic event and a chance to view some truly unique and gorgeous original artwork from a magnificent artist!
More information can be found by going to the Ghost Gallery's website or simply click on the flyer below.

Black Metallic with OD Green pearl. Nice and dark with a touch of color...one of my favorite paint jobs and it can fit damn near everything.
Your favourite Adder paint job?
Posted 01 March 2015 - 06:23 PM Edited by Grampa' Soldier, 01 March 2015 - 06:32 PM.
A friend of mine modded in an adder for me: Primary is chrome with a neon red pearlescent which turns out like a really shiny pink with a secondary color of metallic midnight blue. Oh and before you yell at me for how it looks, note the license plate. It's a trollmobile.

Brushed black steel with gasoline green pearlescent.
I agree with the gasoline part.

I like matte black but I have seen some nice color combo here.
I gotta say though that the stripes do not suit the car.

idk how it will, look but it might look BA, and not sure how it will work on an adder.(feel free to test in SP) --but know your not the discoverer of the paint job--
/"Primary: Metallic:Carbon Black, Pearlescent: Formula Red" "Secondary: Metallic: Midnight Blue"(gives it a Transformative Blue that can turn red, cause of the pearlescent, but the primary stays red. sadly i don't have an image that shows it well, you can change the blue to any color for it to vary, you can also get a propane like flame blue)/
/"Primary: Metallic: Carbon Black, Pearlescent: Blue" "Secondary: Metallic: Wine Red"(can be very patriotic color if you make it with a very noticeable white rims, its also has a some what transformative secondary between blue-wine red)/
Posted 02 March 2015 - 12:44 AM
Only pic I have but its metallic black with orange stripes etc. Looks cool at night

Cake Mix Doctoring = Heeeelllp!
Decorating By lil_cake_lady Updated 27 Mar 2009 , 4:30am by schnumvf
Hey CCer's, it's been a while since I've been on here. Anyway, I need your help! I've been given the task of making cakes and cupcakes to sell for a fundraiser at my church for this Saturday (March 2 evening. I don't have enough supplies to make my cakes from scratch so I have to use the boxed stuff. Does anyone have any good cake doctoring recipes that do NOT include instant pudding mixes of (any kind) and/or sour cream. Please respond ASAP I really need the help. The reason this is so last minute is because I was the person buying the ingredients bought cake mixes instead of flour... sugar etc.
Are you looking for a recipe that won't add dairy? Or are you just avoiding sour cream? Look under the recipe section for the cake mix extender. Not only will you have less to make this way, but your boxed cake gets spruced up in the process.
Good luck. Hope you get it all done.

WASHINGTON TALK: BRIEFING; Feeling Left Out
Published: June 19, 1987
William Penn Mott Jr., director of the National Park Service, is popular among conservationists, who believe he is doing his best to protect the park system in an Administration more interested in economic development of public lands and resources. But inside the Interior Department, it appears, Mr. Mott is sometimes left outside the room when decisions that affect the parks are made.
Recently, Mr. Mott felt impelled to write to his boss, William Horn, the Assistant Secretary of the Interior for Fish and Wildlife, to complain that the park service had not been represented when the Bureau of Land Management considered new rules for its coal management program that involve leasing property near the parks. He also said that the park service had been left out of rulemaking procedures of the Office of Surface Mining that could have an impact on the parks. Finally, Mr. Mott complained, the service had taken no part in discussions with the Environmental Protection Agency on strip mining that could affect the parks.
In his memorandum to Mr. Horn, Mr. Mott said he wanted assurances that the park service would have a ''seat at the table'' when matters affecting the parks were discussed.
Mr. Mott said yesterday that Mr. Horn had responded quickly and ''we are now in the process of correcting the problem.'' He said that the exclusion had been an ''oversight.''
But Paul C. Pritchard, president of the National Parks and Conservation Association, a private group, said that excluding Mr. Mott was part of a ''pattern.''

A month or more ago I posted on here that I was invited to a 'Speedo Pool Party' that a guy down in Sydney organizes.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make it and I really wish I could have. The guy who organized the party seems like a really cool guy and he was respectful about my own privacy and discretion. Since I couldn't make it, I asked him if he would like to share what happened at the Speedo Pool Party.
Here is his account of what they got up to…. there will be more to cum I'm sure.
Dave, I'm happy to contribute the below details of the meet (unfortunately now that autumn is here – the speedo concept / pool party is likely to be put on hold until we hit spring again).
Will change the names / location so that the group and members of the group are not identified.
The afternoon went as follows…
As the meet host, I sent an email to all the guys who had confirmed their attendance to the speedo party on the morning of the meet. Proceedings kicked off with us all meeting in the beer garden of my local pub (let's say at Bondi)… as some of the guys are not out, the pub of choice is a straight pub to avoid any anxiety such a meet might bring on. So 2pm rolled around and the guys turned up one by one at the designated meeting spot in the pub. Some had been to previous meets so were more comfortable than the newbies attending for the first time. Thankfully the sun was out and it was warm enough to enjoy a beer with each other to put everyone at ease… of the regulars, Kenny, Ben and Stewart were there along with Michael, Pete and Mark and myself. (I can go into more detail about each fellow perhaps in another edition!)… Brett, Brad and Kyle were the newbies… I knew this party would be one to remember… this collection of guys were hot… Brad was the last to show up at the pub and boy were we excited to meet him… he is a surf lifesaver at a local beach and had the perfect Aussie beach body, blond hair and tanned bod… I had seen pics of him in speedos prior to the meet so knew the other boys would be excited to meet Brad. Kyle was also a hit with the lads, tall, olive complexion with a gym-toned physique. No doubt each of the guys were sizing up each other and wondering what might be under each of their shorts.
We agreed to leave the pub around a half hour later as the guys had a drink or two under their belts. The last member to join us was Johnny – he was too shy to meet us in the pub so he met us in the street up the road from the pub. Being 25 and the youngest member of the group, Johnny was very anxious about how the afternoon would go. My apartment was a short 5 minute stroll from the pub. On arrival at my pad, we would strip down to our speedos as the sun was shining and the boys were keen for a splash around in the pool in my apartment complex. Some guys had their speedos on already under their shorts… some of the other guys changed in to them in my apartment… just about all the guys looked gym-toned to various degrees. This was going to be fun.
Brad had a bod to die for. He looked so chiselled in his blue surf lifesaving speedos. He filled them out well too… I gave him a playful tap on the backside as we were about to head poolside… Johnny was the only one to wear boardies – he was scared of the water temps impacting on the size of his manhood Kyle looked hot in his black adidas speedos (white stripes on side)… Stewart wore a pair of red speedos (stitching down the middle of his bum crack) and was a keen swimmer so looked great with his swimmer build. Ben, Pete and myself all wore traditional black endurance speedos… mine with the drawstrings neatly crossed outside of my speedos (don't particularly like tucking them inside my speedos)… each of the lads brought a towel and thongs and we headed out to the pool… we agreed to go for a quick swim and come back soon after for more beers & fun… some of the lads were quickly in the pool… fortunately there were no neighbours out in the pool area so we had the space to ourselves… some of the lads were just keen to sit poolside and work on their tans with their feet in the water… the sun was out and the temp would have been around 25 celsius… the pool temp was actually a little bit cooler given that we had just moved into autumn.
OK guys, I'm going to leave it there - will post the next installment next week.

KeiKei-chan - 8/10, though the text is a bit too small.

Skyfall: 9/10 - Very nice lighting contrasts and word contrast with the picture in the background. Basically everything is very neat and clean. Nice job!
Jester: 8/10. Love the way Rin stood out from the rest of the sig pretty much literally. Shiny effect to the left could use just a little more work though, as it looked rather unnatural and "tacked on". Anyways, great job!

Venser : Aono looks a lot like a doll here ^^.
the BG is simple and effective, but lacks of contrast with the picture.
her face is a bit too bright, but that's it.
KeiKei-chan : the shiny particles are a bit too much i think.
also, the bright blue parts are a bit too outstanding and are hard to recognize (geh? is it some random fur at the right? )
the words are a bit jagged and small, but nice font choice and place.
Overal mood is pretty neat.
Something "new" :
long time i didn't submit something here, guess i'm a bit too daring

The time has come, I guess.
I'm leaving the wiki.
Although I've been on since July 28th, 2012, made many new friends in the process, and have even joined another wiki as well, I've decided that maybe leaving the wiki is the best option for me.
Why? I've gotten into new interests, I feel a little bored on this site, and I'm three weeks behind on my online classes. And the wiki is one of the main things distracting me from finishing my course and not leaving me behind - something I almost did last year.
And although I love Avatar, like I've said, I've gotten new interests. I want to take my mind off the wiki and read, or write, or maybe something from my never ending list of animes.
I'll be writing my resignations for my user groups soon.
To all the future readers, probably searching the archives months from now and finding this blog: I hope you're having a great time.
And I might be back when Book 2 starts. If it's good and I feel like coming back.
Also, on a sidenote: If I were a fangirl to you, promise me you'll be a fangirl/fanboy 5evar *cough**cough*KFB*cough**cough*ATFF*cough**cough*
I know this is rather short, but this is all I can muster at the moment.
Toodles, poodles. <3

NZ Wildlife & Landscape Photo Tour – 7 Days
Catlins - East Coast
1st May - 7th May 2018
Join Richard Young and Dave Buckton on a 7-day tour showcasing some of New Zealand's rarest wildlife and most distinctive coastal landscapes. New Zealand's underrated East Coast is full of surprises that include fossilised forests, curious boulders, outstanding coastal scenery and a huge diversity of rare wildlife: penguins, sea lions, fur seals and albatross. This week long East Coast Tour itinerary takes in the best photographic opportunities the area has to offer. Timing is planned to make the most of New Zealand's most settled season and catch the last of the autumn colours.
Starting in the southernmost city of Invercargill, the tour the travels through the Catlins Coastal Rainforest Park, with opportunities to photograph the area's waterfalls, rainforest, penguins and sea lions. North of the Catlins, we explore the Otago Peninsula, known as New Zealand's wildlife capital. We photograph southern Royal Albatross and stay at Larnach Castle. Beyond, tour highlights include the Moeraki Boulders and the wildlife and dramatic coastal scenery of Kaikoura.
Amazing wildlife
Boat trip on the Otago Peninsula
Albatross boat trip in Kaikoura
Stay at Larnach Castle
Invercargill - Christchurch
The Catlins Coast
Otago Peninsula
Moeraki & Kaikoura
Day 1 – The Catlins
Today we head east towards the Catlins. En route we visit the South Island's most southerly point, Waipapa and its well-known lighthouse. We move on to a beach in the Catlins Coastal Rainforest Park where a low tide reveals long fingers of fossilised forest, some 160 million years old and now exposed by tide and time. From here we travel inland to explore the waterfalls of the Catlins. These may not be high, but have a subtle beauty all of their own.
Day 2 - The Catlins / Otago Peninsula
Heading north through the Catlins, we take in sunrise at the spectacular coastline of Nugget Point, where a lighthouse, wind-ruffled native shrubs and off-shore islands combine in a photogenic scene. Along the Catlins coast, we will hopefully get the chance to photograph penguins and the magnificent New Zealand sea lion, which in recent decades has begun breeding again in the Catlins area. The day ends at Larnach Castle, one of New Zealand's most stately buildings, set on the crest of the Otago Peninsula near Dunedin. Dinner here will be a culinary highlight of the tour, eating in the castle's grand dining room.
Day 3 - Otago Peninsula
The Otago Peninsula; home to penguins, albatross and sea lions, is often called the wildlife capital of New Zealand. We take a boat charter to view many of these species from the sea, visit the world's only mainland breeding colony of Southern Royal Albatross. We end the day photographing sunset over the ridges and estuaries of the peninsula.
Day 4 - Moeraki
Heading north along the East Coast we stop to photograph the forest birds at Orokonui, which is home to New Zealand's tuatara, a relic from the dinosaur age. The day also includes photographing a colony of shags along the coastline here. Then we head out into the last light of the day to photograph Yellow-eyed penguins at a coastal reserve on their return from a day out at sea. Tonight we stay near Moeraki, south of Oamaru.
Day 5 - Moeraki / Kaikoura
An early start to photograph sunrise over the famed Moeraki Boulders which are curiously round rocks known as 'concretions,' set into a scenic beachscape. Further north at historic Oamaru, we have the opportunity to photograph the whitestone buildings of this heritage town. Heading further north we drive to north Canterbury, passing through vineyards in autumn colours.
Day 6 - Kaikoura
The Kaikoura Peninsula protrudes into the Pacific Ocean with the stunning backdrop of the Seaward Kaikoura mountains. Offshore, a deep oceanic trench which is rich in food, supports an outstanding range of seabird species and marine mammals. We take a world-class boat trip to photograph white-caped, wandering or southern royal albatross, as well as giant petrels. Back on land, we photograph fur seals, which have a large breeding colony at the peninsula.
Day 7 - Kaikoura / Christchurch
The Kaikoura Peninsula offers a rare opportunity to photograph the Kaikoura Mountains across the bay, with textured limestone reefs in the foreground. It is one of the best coastal photographic locations in New Zealand. In the afternoon we travel to Christchurch, stopping en route to capture the last of the autumn colours, arriving in time to meet flights or for your onward travel.

Class Size
Maximum group size of 8. Groups of 3-4 will be led by only one tutor and groups of 5-8 will be led by two tutors. Limiting class sizes ensures we provide you with the best learning environment possible, including expert guidance, instruction and personal attention, according to your learning style.
Our exact schedule will be determined according to the whole group's photographic objectives and the weather. We keep a flexible itinerary to accommodate this. We will spend the workshop instructing and shooting, often from before dawn until after dark. At some point during the weekend the tutors will give a lecture on their photographic ability and how you can apply their systems and vision to develop your own unique style.
We will meet the group at Invercargill Airport at the start of the workshop and provide transport to the whole workshop and return you to Christchurch at the end of the workshop.
Physical Difficulty
A minimum level of physical activity is necessary to enjoy the workshop. All locations we shoot will be within an easy walk along the coastline, but sometimes over rocky beaches carrying your own equipment. If fitness or mobility is an issue please let us know - there are often locations which offer great shooting possibilities close to the road or our accommodation, or sometimes we also have the option to split the group.
Equipment & Experience
Ideally, you will have a basic knowledge of photography and be comfortable adjusting camera settings such as aperture and shutter speed. An aim of the workshop is to give you more confidence in the creative control of camera settings and shooting in manual mode. We will have a brief session at the start of the workshop, covering camera settings and controls, to be sure everyone is up to speed.
