O'Neill doesn't buy it, and presses Hammond for the real truth. But the general refuses to discuss the matter further, and departs the S.G.C. He is replaced by Major General Bauer, a hard-nosed bureaucrat from the Pentagon. Bauer seems to take little interest in the men and women of the S.G.C., hardly looking at them as he passes them by at his arrival.
Days go by, and Bauer's new policies are put in place. He breaks up SG-1, assigning Teal'c to SG-3 and giving Daniel a desk job. Sam is assigned to participate in a project developing a naquadah-enhanced nuclear bomb. Jack is quickly fed up, and confronts the new commanding officer with his usual level of tact and insubordination.
Soon after, O'Neill visits the newly retired General Hammond, and finds Hammond's two granddaughters playing in the backyard. Jack pushes the general for the truth behind his surprise retirement, and finally gets it: two weeks ago he received a phone call from the N.I.D., telling him to get his act together. The Stargate, they believe, must be used to acquire advanced technology by any means necessary.
Hammond flatly refused. The next day, two men dressed in plain clothes picked up his granddaughters from school. The kids weren't hurt -- the men just drove them around the block a few times and dropped them off. But Hammond got the message, he tells Jack.
Having a connection to only one former member of the N.I.D. (a top secret government organization philosophically at odds with the S.G.C.), O'Neill decides to do whatever it takes to get Hammond's job back. He pays a visit to Harry Maybourne, now under lock and key after being convicted of treason. Maybourne is awaiting the death sentence.
He doesn't seem to know anything about the effort to blackmail Hammond, but he does know how to get hard evidence to hold over the heads of those responsible. Against his better judgment, O'Neill pulls every string he's got (mainly in the form of a call to the president) and gets permission to take Maybourne out of prison for a few days. The two proceed to one of Maybourne's personal hideouts.
Back at the S.G.C., General Bauer is making a mess of things. One officer is dead in a mission to retrieve refined naquadah for the bomb's testing. And when Carter helps to finish the project, she is informed about the plans to test it offworld. She raises serious concerns when Bauer tells her that the planet supports plant and animal life, and that the Stargate will remain connected to the planet during the detonation.
What's more, there are traces of naquadah in the soil of the planet. Unbeknownst to Carter,this was the general's intention all along -- to create a naquadah chain reaction that could destroy the entire surface of a Goa'uld planet (since many Goa'uld worlds are rich in the mineral). Causing such a chain reaction with the gate still open could have disastrous consequences, especially if the gate is not destroyed by the blast. Bauer refuses to listen to Sam.
Pursued by the N.I.D., O'Neill and Maybourne fail to access the N.I.D. computer network, where they can find data linking key individuals to the blackmail of Hammond, plus other illegal N.I.D. actions. They visit the home of Senator Kinsey, who Maybourne knows to be connected to the organization. Jack holds the senator at gunpoint, while Maybourne uses Kinsey's computer to access the N.I.D. files.
Bauer's detonation goes forward, but the blast does not disconnect the wormhole as predicted. Though the iris is quickly closed, radiation begins to pour into the base. Stunned, Bauer orders an evacuation of the mountain. Sam reminds him that the gate may still shut itself off once the 38-minute window has expired (the maximum amount of time a wormhole can be maintained); they monitor the gate from a station on an upper level, and are relieved when the Stargate disconnects. Bauer apologizes to Sam, realizing that his gross negligence almost devastated the planet.
With hard evidence of Kinsey's involvement in the blackmailing of General Hammond, and in Maybourne's covert actions offworld ("Shades of Grey"), and in supporting the Russian Stargate program ("Watergate"), Jack demands that Kinsey get Hammond reinstated. Soon after, the general makes his triumphant return to the S.G.C.
As for Maybourne -- Kinsey arranged to have him transferred to a nicer prison facility. Shortly thereafter, the colonel escaped. The fugitive Maybourne contacted O'Neill afterward to thank him; he is now enjoying himself in a tropical paradise, far from his death sentence.
The N.I.D. is based at Nellis Air Force Base, and operates "Area 51" -- the top-secret facility where technology discovered by SG teams is sent and analyzed ("Touchstone").
Now, we learn that the N.I.D. is an organization "as powerful as the CIA," and "above the law," according to Hammond. Maybourne also confirmed that the N.I.D. was behind the offworld operation he oversaw, where remote teams stole alien technology and smuggled them back to Earth ("Shades of Grey"). SG-1 has suspected this all along, of course.
Truly, the N.I.D. is being built up as the S.G.C.'s opposite number. Their goal is the acquisition of advanced technology by any means necessary, no matter how illegal or unscrupulous, in order to defend the United States. But they have been robbed of all their means of obtaining it: the second gate on Earth is apparently out of the hands of the Russians, their operative within the S.G.C. has been apprehended ("Shades of Grey"), and O'Neill is holding damaging information over the head of Senator Kinsey, who is a high-profile key player in the N.I.D.'s activities -- which prevents them from blackmailing S.G.C. personnel.
After a number of days in retirement, George Hammond is back in charge at Cheyenne Mountain. He owes a great debt to Colonel O'Neill, who requested only that he continue to grant him leniency and patience. O'Neill also revealed a lot about Hammond's personality: he's good at what he does, and he loves it. He told Hammond that he would never be convinced that the general left the Stargate program because he lost his taste for it.
Hammond is a two-star general.Jack O'Neill - O'Neill risked his career and his freedom to go one-on-one against the N.I.D., in order to save General Hammond's job. He's not just a good commanding officer -- Jack considers him a friend. He's also a familiar friend of the general's family (Hammond's granddaughters addressed Jack by his first name, and greeted him with enthusiastic hugs).
O'Neill showed just how far he was willing to go for his friend, holding a United States senator at gunpoint in order to acquire evidence of Kinsey's illegal activities. Jack has retained this information, in order to have the necessary leverage with Kinsey and the N.I.D.
O'Neill has quite a bit of pull with the president of the United States, probably due to the number of times he and his team have save the world. He was able to get the president to grant permission for him to take a convicted traitor on a personal fact-finding expedition.
Jack also nicely expressed the reason he came out of retirement (twice), and why he continues to risk life and limb in support of the Stargate program: "Some things are worth changing your plans for."Harold Maybourne - Maybourne was arrested after the events of "Watergate", and convicted of treason. He was awaiting the death sentence in a federal penitentiary when Jack O'Neill found him, and convinced the president to let him out for a few days. After Maybourne helped O'Neill acquire evidence against his former N.I.D. associates, Maybourne blackmailed Kinsey into transferring him to a nicer facility -- and escaped soon after. He is currently at large, though all his ties with the N.I.D. are severed (save the possibility of blackmailing Kinsey).
Maybourne has many aliases (a hundred, if one is to believe the man himself), one of which is "Charles Bliss." He said that he and Senator Kinsey "go way back," perhaps implying a connection between Maybourne and the N.I.D. and Kinsey's attempt to shut down the Stargate program two and a half years ago ("Politics").Samantha Carter - Carter continued to follow orders and obey the chain of command, despite her objections to Bauer's naquadah bomb project and her belief that the test would have disastrous consequences. She was proved right, of course, when all of Cheyenne Mountain was nearly destroyed.
Sam expressed her disagreement with General Bauer much more directly than she has done in the past. (Perhaps some of Jack's insubordinate nature has rubbed off on her.) But in spite of Bauer's colossal foolishness, she did not cross the line. She did her duty and stuck around, perhaps because she knew that she'd be the person with the best chance of getting the S.G.C. out of whatever mess Bauer was creating.Teal'c - Surprisingly, Teal'c showed a willingness (though perhaps temporary) to remain a part of the S.G.C. when he was reassigned to SG-3 after Hammond retired. He even obeyed Bauer's orders to participate in a mission to a heavily-guarded Goa'uld world to obtain a naquadah sample for a risky experiment. Teal'c saw the life of one S.G.C. officer lost in that mission.
His willingness to stick around may have resulted from the changing dynamic on his home planet of Chulak: the planet has been decimated by Apophis ("Maternal Instinct"), and recently Teal'c was betrayed and captured there by a fellow Jaffa ("The Serpent's Venom").

Australian Story
Interview with Sarah Watt from 'The Real McInnes' - 2005
PROGRAM TRANSCRIPT: Friday, 11 November , 2011
Sarah Watt first met William McInnes 15 years ago when they argued about beer. Now married with two children, they shun the celebrity life in favour of their chaotic life in Melbourne.
SARAH WATT: I went to art school, not quite out of school but after a few years of trying other things and failing miserably. I went to art school and failed reasonably miserably at that, for about 10 years, but, and then went to film school, did a year of animation and just loved it, took to it, you know, and haven't stopped since.
I made the film, Small Treasures, after, I'd made my student films and it was kind of the first big film that I'd made. I got funding, I wrote the script. It was a kind of a personal story and so it was something that I really wanted to craft which is the mood you need to be in to make animations, 'cause you sit there day after day after day just drawing and painting cell after cell or frame after frame after frame. It's 15 minutes long and is, you know, 12 drawings per second so it, it was an incredible amount of work but I love it with animation because I, you know, you have days when you're really creative and you really want to paint something gorgeous and so you can paint a background or you can get the feeling of movement, or something, and then you have days when I just want to sit there and do really boring work like just the craft of it. It's like knitting, you know, you just colour in and just listen to story tapes and music, it's great.
Small Treasures is about a pregnancy, I suppose, and it's kind of written in a diary form, sort of, follows a pregnancy through, and it's, and it's about a baby that dies, doesn't make it through the birth and, you know, which is a fairly common thing, horribly common still, that women go through and I, I kind of made it, you know, sort of, autobiographical in a way, but I kind of universalised it. I've looked at a whole lot of other stories of women that have been through, or, you know, people that have been through the same thing and just, you know, kind of, made a hybrid story about that 'cause at the time I really felt it was unspoken about and although things had improved, it was still something a bit under the, under the bed, you know, shove your emotions under the bed and get back out and have another baby and, and it's a lot harder than that, it's a lot harder on relationships. It's kind of a real death and I wanted to make a film about that, yeah, but not a depressing one, I hope.
SARAH WATT: William and I, our first baby died during the birth, which was, you know, pretty traumatic. Absolutely standard pregnancy, everything going pretty well but then, you know, one of those bad things of fate, I suppose, and a cord prolapsed and, you know, all over Red Rover, I 'spose that's a bad way of putting it. So, but that was 13 years ago now, so, you know, we've got two lovely other children so, it's fine.
SARAH WATT: The best way to make a living as an animator is to have a partner who does television drama for five years, so in other words, not. I looked at, you know, making short animation films as, you know, I did get funding to make them. I used to have to pay for my art materials and when you're making an animation film you don't actually have to pay for your art materials but you still, it's neutral, you certainly couldn't make a living out of it, I don't think, in Australia.
There probably is a certain type of person attracted to animation. I'm not sure I'm it. I'm not very in with the animation world but they're probably, I don't know, looking at myself I think, yes, boring, stay at home a lot, able to just keep doing the same things, so it's kind of a weird mix of being very creative and very, you know, dull and embracing routine, I suppose, so it's probably just the weird thing that only kicks in in certain people to have that combination.
Both animation and writing fit in really well with domestic life. William is often, you know, gone and away and I can colour in during the day, I call colouring in doing animation, when the kids are at school. I think I wrote this feature because I had a year of insomnia and, you know, I'd just end up giving up on sleep and so I wrote it pretty much between 3:00am and 6:00am.
SARAH WATT: I probably make films that are autobiographical more because I think they make better stories because they're real and therefore more likely to, sort of, touch other people and pull other people into the story and into the drama than, than I think it, that it would help me as some kind of therapy. When I go and see films or look at paintings or whatever, I want to be moved and touched and, and usually it's coming from something personal in the, in the artist, so, that's why I probably raid my own life a bit to, to make films.
SARAH WATT: I must have met William, I don't know, it must have been about 15 years ago. He was unemployed, I think he, he might have done few things which left me completely unimpressed. I just assumed, most of my friends at the time were actors or musicians or artists and we were all pretty useless at, you know, we all had other jobs to try and, you know, get through the day. So I just assumed he was just one of those actors who was never going to get a real job acting, you know, 'cause none of us, kind of, did, that was those other special people. So, yeah, and he didn't for quite some time either, so yeah, we were on second baby before he got a kind of a steady job. So at first, it was me that financed the relationship. He did Country Practice pretty early on, that was pretty funny and that gave me no confidence at all that he was ever going to get another job
SARAH WATT: I think William's a really, well I think he's a good actor but, it's probably a bit biased. I think he's a character actor and he's a really, he just lives acting, you know, he really, that's all he can do and I don't mean that meanly, but he's, he's truly, you know, an actor actor. He doesn't like a lot of the, kind of, actor world stuff and he gets embarrassed by it, I think, so he doesn't talk a lot about what he likes doing and stuff. So for me to see William I have to watch his work and see what he can do and some of it, I think, just has been great. I've always thought that he perhaps wasn't getting enough challenge and also was frustrated by some of the lack of challenges that he was getting and so that's why it was really good to be able to write this film with William in mind for one of the roles because I felt he could do it, and I felt he could really, I don't know, give a lot more to a role than, than, than perhaps he'd done previously, but he's done some, I thought he did a great job on Shark Net and, you know, My Brother Jack, they're amazing performances, yeah.
SARAH WATT: I wrote Look Both Ways pretty much for William. Not, not like as a, as a great big, you know, gift, just for him, but just as a, you know, 'I'll write you a role, I'll get you, I'll get you a part', and we never really thought it would get up. We thought, for a while we might try and make a no budget film and, you know, just so he'd, he's have something out there and just shoot it on mini DV or something, but I just kept writing and people were interested and just sort of, kept going and then all of a sudden, it was happening.
SARAH WATT: Oh, when we met, we decided we'd have a fling and I think the fling joke kind of was still probably going about three years later, so we still, it probably took that long. I don't know, he, I was older than him and I 'spose he used to accuse me of having all this stuff, you know, like a television and, you know, a job, stuff that he could, you know, come around and watch the TV and stuff, whereas he just had, you know, a futon on the floor and three old magazines, as far as I could figure out. So, I 'spose there was a part of me still pretty conservative and was thinking maybe it would be nice to meet somebody who had a video recorder to go with my television, that certainly wasn't William. But the TV broke down and we both ended up with nothing for a while so that, that actually worked, so we just kind of stuck, rather than saw each other and thought, 'this will be good'.
SARAH WATT: We probably didn't really settle into each other until we had kids. We didn't buy a house until after we'd had our first baby and then, you know, we bought a pretty crappy house but that was just such an amazing thing to do, to buy, and really only 'cause we got kicked out of our awful rented house. So I 'spose, you know, the babies are what really makes you stick together as a couple, and now, yeah, now we have stuff, 'cause we used to move every six months and now we haven't moved for, you know, 13 years and stuff collects.
SARAH WATT: Dogs and books and junk and William accusing me of having stuff when he met me was hilarious 'cause once I sort of, first visited his family home and I saw the true meaning of stuff, he couldn't accuse me again of having too much.
SARAH WATT: William and I are both completely useless, I think, domestically. We, we're so bad a being domestic that we can't even get, you know, even when we're doing okay financially and we think, 'Let's get a cleaner', we have never managed to keep a cleaner for more than about, you know, six weeks, because we can't even keep the house clean enough for the cleaner to clean. It, we just, and so we have to do it ourselves and, yeah, it's that thing of, you know, William's their youngest child so he's really good at that thing of doing the dishes really badly and breaking things so one of his older sisters would shove him aside or his mother would say, 'Get out of here, I'll do it', and he tried it on me for quite a while but I'm, you know, I was wise to that and I have my, sort of, lazy streak as well. We both duel for the creative diva, useless role, and hope that the other person will, kind of, come in and fill the vacuum, but many years later the vacuum is still there. We have high hopes for Stella, our daughter, that, you know, coming good, but having seen her room lately, I think we've failed there.
We probably haven't actually spent that much time in the same house, at the same time, being creative. William's got his little room up the back which, you always had to learn, learn parts and stuff, you know, so he could shout, so he got the one outside so he could shout, and I got, you know, well I had the garage and then that fell down so now I've got the lounge room and we've only had small times when he's been writing and I've been writing, so usually we're, I think we're both more productive when the other person's out somewhere but, you know, 'cause there's too many cups of tea consumed on the days when we're both home. It's kind of like the minute you think, 'Oh, I'll stop', there's someone there to procrastinate with so I think it doesn't work that well to try and both write at the same time.
SARAH WATT: We live, where we live is in the inner western suburbs of Melbourne, next to a railway line, it's the railway line that has the goods trains, the country trains and the suburban trains - we get a lot of trains - and we moved here originally 'cause it's the only place that we could afford, cheapest housing in Melbourne, but we've just stayed through inertia, probably, and just gradually, just really learning, you know, just loving the area and making friends and it's got a lot of really good things about it. It's not, when I first came here, you know, it was really ugly, but I've grown to kind of find a beauty in it and it was a beauty I wanted to celebrate when I made the film, but it is, got that ugliness also that I think inspires you to make beautiful things. I lived by the sea for 10 years and painted about three pictures, I think, so maybe a place like this is good for creativity and stuff, as well, but it's, I don't know, pretty much everybody lives here in levels of socio-economic success or failure and any country you can name. It's just a really rich, diverse area and yet, and yet, you know, we're only about five kilometers from the city and yet we've got chooks, I mean, where could you get all that, it's a great area.
SARAH WATT: I think the role in SeaChange did really suit him. I think when his wife died in the first couple of episodes, you know, he's had to start out as this sort of, with, with a tragedy, so he had to kind of, go deep but, have a lightness about it that wasn't going to sort of, bring the whole show down and I think he sort of, and then he had to kind of, all of a sudden, still be back in romantic comedy mode with Sigrid, so I think he sort of balanced that really well, but I don't actually think, I actually think William's probably best thing is comedy and still nobody's given him that. I've abused his ability to go, you know, in, into deep emotional stuff in the film, oh, and, a little bit of comedy, but I think William's actually really funny and, you know, waiting for a big funny film.
SARAH WATT: I can hardly watch Sandy Freckle in Kath and Kim because William used to do this character at home, it was one of the ones he does do at home, and he does it on purpose to annoy me because it just gives me the shudders, it's a kind of, 'Give us a kiss', kind of, it's just revolting, and Sandy Freckle's just a little bit too much like this character at home, so I think it's hilarious, but I can't, I don't, I try not to watch.
SARAH WATT: We've talked, you know, over the years we've talked about trying, going, living somewhere else and so William can do the whole door knocking thing, both in America and the UK. But when you do the research of the people that have done that, they're, the ones that have broken though, have, you know, amazing perseverance abilities and many were younger when they started trying to bang all those doors. It's hard to do with kids, we've done the sums and it just doesn't add up for very long to, you know, you just, to, to be able to just go and relocate and be, you know, ready to knock on doors for a year, and also most people say that unless you're going with a film, or you're going with something that's, that's being released over there, there's not a lot of point, you know, there's, it, there's perfectly good actors there that they've already got, they don't need another one. Maybe it is just our inertia and the fact that we like our little lives, and we like dagging around with the kids, that does stop us being braver. But, you know, I think William would love it if he could, films, and just go over and do them and come home, but, but until he, you know, would get offers, he can't do that, and, and it just hasn't, sort of, seemed to be worth risking just going over there and camping and trying. But, you know, maybe that's laziness or poverty or the children or the dogs, I don't know
SARAH WATT: When I first met William he was writing poetry, I'm no judge of poetry, so I can't comment on what it was like, but I think he has always been a writer, he just, like all of us, didn't, sort of, have much to do with it and then when he started writing the little articles for the Courier-Mail, and I think it just clicked in, and he has such an ease about his work that I think that comes across in the writing style, and I'm totally envious of it because William will just go off and write an article and then say, 'I've written it', and then it's finished. I'm endlessly editing and rewriting but William can just write, it comes out kind of like a good, funny story and then it's just done, so I think it's just, he's, he's a good, natural writer.
SARAH WATT: No, I haven't actually read the finished book. I've read the articles that led to the book, but, yeah, I don't know, William didn't show me. No, and then he did, and then I didn't read it, and, and, you know, it's become a kind of family joke now that William's got a book coming out and I'm, you know, one of the few people that haven't read it, so, we'll see how long we can, maybe I'll get if for Christmas and read it then.
SARAH WATT: I think William's completely sentimental. He's sentimental about his childhood, sentimental about his home, sentimental about his children, sentimental about, I don't know, everything. But it's kind of a good sentiment, it's not a fake, you know, sentimental, you'd even call it like, a, a loyalty and, and an appreciation, it's that kind of sentimental thing. William sees things, you know, reasonably truthfully and can still be sentimental about, about them.
SARAH WATT: William would spend just as much time, I think, talking to Clem about poetry as he talks to Clem about cricket and, you know, that's quite a lot of the time they talk about cricket, and William will go to, you know, William would go to the art gallery probably just as, more often than me. He'd, I don't know, he does, he crosses, he crosses all those things pretty well I 'spose. I think a lot of Australian society now is still pushing that blokey, sporty, thing to such a point that it's becoming really, I don't know, it's an insult, in a way, to men and the depth that they could have and that you either have to choose to, sort of, say, 'Well, I don't follow the football', as a sort of, reaction against that over-hyped Aussie bloke or, or embrace it and then, and then not, not have the other cultural aspects, you know, that I think all good personalities should have, an appreciation of, you know everything the world's got to offer. William actually does 50 per cent of the parenting, so even though he might go away and stuff a lot, you know, he makes school lunches and he knows how to hang the washing out, and, you know, is that parenting, yes, I think it is. Yeah, but he spends a lot of time with the kids and, you know, he was on the school council for a few years so, you know, all that sort of stuff, I think it's really, well it's great and, you know, you would hope that there were lots of people out there like that.

Riya Gangwar
Imagination - Poem by Riya Gangwar
Imagination is what keeps us positive
Imagination is what makes us look forward
Imagination is probably what keeps us alive
Imagination is what sometimes listens awkward
Imagination is a life's attitude
Imagination is a lifelong hope
Imagination is a life's creation
Imagination is thinking without hesitation
Imagination is a dream with no limits
Imagination is a hope with no cross lines
Imagination is an aim to feel life with different ryhmes
Imagination is where everything seems perfectly fine
Imagination is when you start to seriously believe
in fairytales, and perfection in drama queens
Imagination is a dream that you wish it was real
Imagination is when your eyes start to imagine and see
things that you know they will never be seen. orhappen on real
Imagination is when you think
about something that can never happen
in dreams they may appear, but on real they're nothin'
because we need something unreachable
we start to dream unconrtolable
we want to make it possible...but we're incapable
if only it was available! ! !
Imagination doesn't mean you're sick
or doesn't mean you're weak. because you deceit yourself, and can't see life on real.
Imagination means you're alive and you can dream, with no fear...
it gives you the freedom to think about how you feel!
Imagination sometimes kills our insistance to get what we want
because what we want is sometimes a no way possible..so we have to hardly move on.
Imagination is also good to push us forward to achieve our dreams
and work harder to change what we imagine into affective real
without Imagination, life is nonsense
because we want to feel what we want to reallyfeel but we can't
but when we imagine it...it sometimes helps us out and takes our hand! !
Imagine is to create and to feel..
it is to dream..
and hopefully achieve..! !
Imagination can sometimes turn into Real :)

Lights Camera Cure!
Started in 2011 by members of the Penn State Los Angeles Chapter of the Alumni Association, the Hollywood Dance Marathon has grown exponentially year by year. Since 2011, the 6-hour-long mini dance marathon has raised nearly $200,000. Dancers can sign up at the marathon's website, lightscameracure.com, and fundraise throughout the year. There's a $30 registration fee and all dancers ae encouraged to raise a minimum of $300 in order to participate. These dancers get exclusive access, pictures of the ever-famous red carpet, free food, discounted bark drinks, and, of course, the coveted dancer t-shirt!
Gary Werkheiser, Executive Director, says, "Dancers are the heart of this event!" There is, however, something for everybody. From DJs, bands, and other artists like The Filharmonic and The Young Guns, to celebrity ambassadors like Jonathan Bennett (aka Aaron Samuels from Mean Girls) and Scott Michael Foster (of TV shows Greek and Chasing Life), there's a ton to do for attendees who are not able to dance. This year's host is Gary's son, Devon Werkheiser (famous for his work on TV shows Ned's Declassified and Greek), who also performed at THON 2015. Past celebrity attendees include Moby, Melissa Joan Heart, Drake Bell, and Laura Prepon (just to name a few!). There's a silent auction with items like a book signed by Mindy Kaling, tickets to Jimmy Kimmel Live, a VIP Visit to FOX NFL Sunday, and more! Finally, the event includes "Family Time," similar to THON's Family Hour, which includes speeches from survivors, pediatric cancer doctors and other hospital staff.
To join in on the fun, from near or far, visit lightscameracure.com, check out their Facebook page, and follow along on Twitter. This year's event will be held on March 21 from 1pm-7pm at the Avalon Theater. It's not too late to sign up and become a dancer! If you can't be there in person, you can also watch their livestream (links will be posted on Facebook, Twitter, and the LCC website). Proceeds benefit both the Four Diamonds Fund and Mattel Children's Hospital UCLA.

At the OP, do you have trouble seeing at night with 35%? I'm thinking of going with 40%.
Thanks for saying that and saving me the trouble.
Of course it's not permanent
, it would be stupid to try and maintain this stuff on wheels. It's a temporary way for me to get a vision of what my wheels would look painted this way. Now I can make an educated decision on whether I want to paint them or not.
35% works great and is legal in like 40 out of 50 states. That's why I picked it originally. I think it works just fine at night and I haven't had any problems seeing. I wish it were a little darker, but I will be moving soon so I wanted to make sure that I would be legal in both states and anywhere else I might move.
ALSO, these pictures were taken after driving on back country roads, and on freeways for 150 miles through a Tropical Storm, and I would have to say that they held up pretty well. So it can obviously handle TONS and TONS of rain, and at least 150 miles of nonstop driving. And this was less than 12 hours after having finished spraying them, so it didn't even cure all the way.
Cleaning them is actually REALLY EASY! You take a hose and your finger and just rub the dirt off the parts that are dirty and spray it down at the same time. Cleans up super fast. I spent about 5 minutes cleaning all 4 wheels, and they looked like I had just sprayed them.
Regarding brake dust, WHO CARES? They're black already!
Also, it only took 5 cans. Pretty cheap to be able to see how everything looks and yet not ruin anything IMO.
I'm glad at least one person realized how stupid those comments were.

I think I am not alone in growing so tired of Don Kennedy's "rants" in the AFN. Surely there has to be a more productive and community-embraceable dialog than his extreme "right-wing" discourse and that of the opposing Nancy Pelosi-ish left. The best thing for our country is for those of us in the moderate middle to take back the discussion and elect public servants who will serve the interest of the vast (and too-often silent) majority of our citizens.
I am a life-long Republican of very moderate stripes: I would like to see our country be fiscally responsible, encouraging and socially tolerant. If I were in a position of influence in our federal government, I would be working toward balanced (or nearly so) budgets, improved global competitiveness (education, trade policy, tax code, etc.) and opportunity for all. I would be strongly supporting an environment of individual success based on individual initiative and access to the factors that support that (access to education, capital and mentoring). As a country, we need to fix our broken immigration system, deal with our "entitlements" and debt levels (yes, we will all have to sacrifice some financially to make that happen, but is it all really about "me" politics or is it about something bigger… and, maybe when the world sees us do that people will flock to live and invest here… our shining beacon gets a new polish… what a novel idea).
Why do we continue to let the extreme right and left dominate the political, economic and social discussion in this country? While we do so, the Chinese and others make plans, invest and chip away at our promise … to the detriment of our children, our neighbors and global friends and our own futures.
I would agree with one Don Kennedy statement: "It's time for some soul searching." There is a better way. To use a golfing analogy, it's right down the middle of the fairway. The far right and far left are filled with hazards and ideas that are "out of bounds." Most of us know this. We just need to be a lot more vocal about what we want and expect from our elected officials and community.
Please, people in the moderate middle, stand up with me and demand better from our media and our political system.

Product Description
Micronized Creatine is a powerful muscle building supplement. As you know, it's usually taken in powder form mixed into water or a flavored drink but you don't always have time to mix a drink. Even if it takes you just 5 minutes, when you are busy and on the go those 5 minutes may be impossible to spare. And as good and effective as Micronized Creatine is, it will not do you a bit of good if you don't take it. And if you miss a dose every now and then you're zapping Micronized Creatine's ability to fuel muscle growth and strength.
How many times have you skipped a scheduled dose of creatine because time just slipped away? Now you have the power of Micronized Creatine in a convenient capsule so you can take them anywhere at any time with no mixing and no mess. Just pop a few capsules and you're good to go. The Micronized Creatine can go to work igniting muscle growth.
"AST Sports Science 'Micronized Creatine' Delivers More Creatine to Your Muscles Faster!"
New "Micronized" Creatine Capsules . . .
With AST's constant commitment to improve the effectiveness of sports supplementation, we have developed a new creatine supplement that incorporates state-of-the-art Particle Micronizing Technology (PMT™) and produced it in a convenient - take anywhere, take anytime capsule.
This PMT™ technology sets a new standard for creatine monohydrate supplementation by actually producing creatine 'micro-particles' that are 20 times smaller than regular creatine powder. And putting it in an easy to swallow capsule ensures you can have your muscle-building creatine even at the most inconvenient times.
Micronized Creatine Capsules have numerous advantages over regular creatine monohydrate.
Faster Absorption . . .
AST Micronized Creatine's smaller particle size means quicker digestion and faster utilization.
More Efficient . . .
20 times more total surface area for greater uptake into the bloodstream and rapid delivery to muscle tissue.
Greater Purity . . .
Micronizing creatine produces a more pure creatine. By increasing the total processing steps and purification procedures, AST's Micronized Creatine yields a finished product substantially more pure. Test it. We challenge you.
No Stomach Upset . . .
Regular creatine monohydrate sits in the gut longer. This causes discomfort to many users. AST's Micronized Creatine leaves the gut quicker causing no stomach upset.
Better Results . . .
New Micronized Creatine offers 2000% more particle surface area for better utilization, better uptake, and faster results.
Drink Plenty of Liquids!
Creatine works by enhancing muscle cell hydration. It is very important to consume adequate fluids while taking creatine to see best results. A good rule of thumb is to drink an EXTRA 16 to 20 ounces of liquid for every 5 grams of creatine you take.
During your Loading Phase you should be drinking an EXTRA 64 to 80 ounces of liquid than you normally drink. During the maintenance phase you should drink an EXTRA 32 to 40 ounces.
This is very important and ensures you get the maximum out of creatine supplementation.

Fiction: "You are the Greatest Lake" by Greg Schutz
Published in the Sycamore Review
I don't normally provide links to excerpts, but I really enjoyed reading the first part of this short story published in the Sycamore Review and I encourage readers to check it out. If you like it, buy a copy of the magazine to read the rest of the piece. Here's a short excerpt:
We are at the tip of the thumb of Michigan. The sky threatens sun, so John has reluctantly left the water and run into town for groceries. His waders, latex and neoprene, hang in the mudroom. They smell sourly of rubber and sweat and still hold the shape of his legs. I put a pitcher of lemonade in the refrigerator to chill. The rental cottage is quiet. From the back porch, I can see Dot out in the bay, practicing the dead-mans float. Dot is Johns daughter. She is eight years old. I love you, I say.
Distantly, she stirs in the water, as if shes heard me.
The yard rolls down to the lake, grass giving way to pebbles and shells, pebbles and shells pouring smoothly into the water to form the firm, gravelly bottom that John says draws bass into the bay. I know nothing about smallmouth bass except what John has told mea striped bronze fish, football-shaped with the slung jaw of a linebacker, that he wades for, casting, on cloudy mornings and afternoons. I know that in broken light they rise from the depths to prowl the bay for crayfish and leeches, mayfly larvae and minnows. I know the bay is broad and flat as a pan. A quarter-mile out, where Dot is floating, its only two or three feet deep. Still, I worry. John makes allowances for her that I could never imagine for my own daughter. She is so small.
I hope this summer those of you who are writers as well as readers are submitting stories AND reading some as well. We gotta support each other, after all, and ordering a few literary journals to keep around your place during the summer is an easy way to kick the boredom that sometimes hangs in the 98-degree air ...

Many Arsenal fans are already sweating over the fitness of some of their star players- something having a negative impact on the team presently. Well at last, there are some latest news that should ignite a bit of smile on our checks – even if it is just quite little.
A new report by The Mirror has it that starplayer Mesut Ozil will miss Arsenal game against Bournemouth with a continuation of the illness that signed him out of Sunday's 2-0 defeat of Crystal Palace.
Fortunately, the duo of Alex Oxlade Chamberlain and Shkodran Mustafi are said to be in contention for a place after featuring on the bench at the weekend.
Since they are playing twice in three days, then changes throughout the team is likely to be made, with Aaron Ramsey and Francis Coquelin in with a chance of a start too.
Benik Afobe will also be available to play against his former club after he turned down a linkup with the DR Congo, while Jack Wilshere will not be unfortunately able to feature against his parent club.
Arsenal are currently sitting at the sixth position in the English Premier League table, seven points behind table leaders Chelsea and just two points behind second-placed Liverpool.

Javier Mascherano slipped in the build up to Atletico Madrid's only goal against Barcelona on Wednesday evening – and fans took to Twitter to compare the mistake to Steven Gerrard's infamous slip against Chelsea in 2014.
Atletico took the lead in the fixture through Angel Correa after Mascherano slipped to the floor on the edge of his own penalty area.
The mistake had clear similarities to Gerrard's untimely slip against Chelsea two years ago.
The Liverpool legend lost his footing inside his own half and presented the ball to Demba Ba who converted nicely to help the Blues to a 2-0 win, ultimately costing the Reds a first Premier League title.
Supporters on social media were quick to mock Gerrard after being reminded of the incident.
Here is a selection of the messages on Twitter:
Mascherano did a Gerrard, but with more style.
— The Moon (@Ismailoo_98) September 22, 2016
Mascherano's slip is worse then Gerrard's slip #FCBAtleti I cried whn he fell
— Saint Mandy TSi (@simelane_mandy) September 21, 2016
Tell that to Mascherano and his slippery boots,Steven Gerrard wanna be.? https://t.co/Tzjt7O2xdS
— Tunechi (@tunde_young) September 21, 2016
Gerrard must have texted Mascherano before the game ?
— BAW (@Ellbasilisco) September 21, 2016
Mascherano doing his best Gerrard impression by slipping there …..
— Zayne (@Zayne_M7) September 21, 2016
What a touching tribute to his former teammate Steven Gerrard by Javier Mascherano.#BarcaAtleti
— Bagger Vance (@MrBrendan23) September 21, 2016
The match finished 1-1 and left Barcelona in third place in La Liga, three points behind leaders Real Madrid after five matches.
Liverpool supporters will have distanced themselves from the memory of Gerrard's slip and are already enjoying life under their new manager Jurgen Klopp.
The German has already overseen wins against Leicester, Chelsea and Arsenal this season and his side are currently 6th in the Premier League after picking up 10 points from their first five games.
In other Liverpool news, Michel Vorm is pleased to face the Reds in the last 16 of the EFL Cup but admitted he was hoping to draw rivals Arsenal.

Derivatives and Alternative Investments
If the swaps market were less liquid than it is, market mortgage lenders would find it more difficult and expensive to manage the interest rate risk of the prepayment option in fixed rate mortgages (Greenspan 2004). The extensive use of interest rate swaps means that volatility of the swap spread can affect a large range of market participants, as they rely on a stable relationship between the interest rate swap rate and other interest rates in using swaps for their hedging objectives. For this reason, trading activity that would stabilize the swap spread performs a useful role in ensuring that market participants can rely on the market for their trading and hedging needs. By market convention, the fixed-rate payer that has a long swap position in a fixed/floating interest rate swap is called the taker or buyer of the swap, while the floating-rate payer that has a short swap position in the fixed/floating interest rate swap is called the provider or seller of the swap. The fixed-rate payer and the floating-rate payer of an interest rate swap are called the counterparties of the swap. ...

Derivatives and Alternative Investments
First, if management understands about the corporation's risks better than shareholders, the corporation, not its stakeholders, can hedge. Subsequent, corporation could be capable to hedge at a lower cost. Corporate hedging can be justified if default costs are significant, since it reduces the possibility of default (Johnson, 2010). Lastly, if the corporation encounters progressive taxes, it can decrease tax accountabilities by hedging which steady corporate earnings. To calculate the appropriate number of bonds and equity futures that should be sold the following are considered and done....

Rams, Jets still facing uncertain situations at quarterbackBy Kelly Sanders Nov 22, 2016
In a 27-23 loss to the Dolphins last Sunday, Forte inexplicably got just 12 carries, a total he likely will have to double in order for the Jets to beat the Rams. Unable to score a touchdown on offense, the Rams forced the game's only turnover inside the two-minute warning of the second half to claim a 9-6 road win over the New York Jets on Sunday. Once again, Keenum drove the length of the field and got the Rams in the red zone, but L.A. settled for another field goal that tied the game at 6-6.
"I really can't wait to go back and watch film, " Petty said, "learn from this and get better from it".
After the game, Bowles said Fitzpatrick wasn't "completely healthy".
The Rams (4-5) are now two games behind the Seattle Seahawks (5-2-1) in the NFC West.
Both teams continued to sputter offensively, but the Rams took the lead 9-6 on another field goal in the mid-fourth, and that was all it would take.
Quite honestly, Bowles probably can't pick a right answer.
Browns brutalized in 24-9 loss to Steelers
Robert Griffin III will practice this week for the first time since a bone in his left shoulder was broken in the season opener. Browns coach Hue Jackson said it's possible Kessler may need extra time to recover from his second concussion since October 23.
The Rams started the game with a statement sending opening drive. He had a similar explanation for how his best receiver, Brandon Marshall, had a ridiculously quiet day (four catches for just 15 yards).
Because Petty isn't the quarterback of next year for the Jets.
By hook or by crook according to the Rams middle linebacker, who said the Rams had to consider all options when approaching any opponent toting the ball around the field. He was poised. He threw a deep ball well. "We didn't get the ball in the end zone, but he scrambled and picked up some key first downs and kept drives alive. He's a great asset to this team".
The 78-yard punt was a career-long for Hekker, and two yards short of a Rams franchise record. Petty gave them some space by hitting Robby Anderson for a 52-yard reception that put them on Los Angeles' 46-yard line. The more you can gather, the more knowledge you get, suddenly, all of those little things start sticking. "You know it's going". "We had some big-play opportunities, had some mistakes up front, protection mistakes with people running down the field". The Jets earned their second straight win in the series in the most recent game between the teams November 18, 2012, when Bilal Powell rushed for two touchdowns and Nick Folk booted a pair of 51-yard field goals in a 27-13 victory over the Rams in St. Louis.
Through just over one quarter, Petty had completed four of his five passes for 70 yards and the aforementioned touchdown. But the Rams lost two yards on a run, then had an offensive pass interference call. Revis allowed Kenny Britt of the Rams to rack up 109 yards on seven receptions yesterday, and has reached a point where he can no longer be a team's number one corner. Either he'll show enough promise to let the Jets seriously consider making him the No. 1 guy heading into next season, or the team can see he may not have what it takes, and get in line to select one of the star quarterbacks coming out of college for next season's draft.

Oh hello there. It looks like this blog has taken a little holiday over the last couple of weeks but it is only because a lot has been happening recently. Just over three weeks ago I moved from Cardiff, the city I have lived in for 22 years to London, the city of opportunity...and extortionate flat prices.
Anyone who knows me would probably say I'm a bit of a homebird. I like home comforts, I like not having to use Google Maps to find my way around and I like my dog, a lot. So deciding I wanted to take the leap and move in to flat with my friends in London come September was a pretty big deal. It's been something I've toyed with on and off ever since graduating last year and then all of a sudden the time had come and we were playing grown-up Tetris trying to fit all my belongings in to the boot of Dad's car.
Now it isn't the first time I've lived out of my family home. During my three years at university I lived in shared houses with friends but being only 15 minutes from home I wasn't exactly spreading my wings. I wouldn't have changed it though, it was ideal. For the past year I've lived at home and it's been pretty much luxury.
So why move to an entirely new city where I'll be paying an outrageous amount of money on rent and travel, (my own money I'd like to add), and will have to return to student-style living? Well, quite frankly I weighed it up as either stay in a job at home that I didn't enjoy or go and chase my dream career. Unsurprisingly it was the latter and so far it seems to be paying off, I've already landed myself a social media internship, albeit unpaid, it's a lot closer to the dream than I would have been had I not moved. *round of applause* *bows* *thank you, thank you*. It's a shame really that getting the career you want means upping sticks and moving away from your family but it seems to be the case for a lot of graduates these days.
Now the complete house-hunting process (or torture) is a whole different blog post. If you want it? After a few too many saturday evenings spent on the megabus, tears and exhaustion we found ourselves a place. If you have plans to move to London and people keep telling you how much of a nightmare it is to find somewhere to live on a budget, believe them, even if you don't want to hear it.
It's a big change to make considering the longest I've ever gone without seeing my family isn't much more than a week or two. A lot of people have been genuinely surprised that I've fled my home town, I'm sure assuming I wouldn't actually be brave enough to make the move. Well, I have, so there. Of course I'll be visiting home often but here's to a fresh start and new beginnings, and apparently suddenly becoming all kinds of cheesy. Oh and being a massive tourist disguising as a 'blogger'.

We are running Exchange 2000 with Outlook 2007. This works just fine, the only thing is that anybody can add othe peoples mailboxes without needing permission....
In outlook, tools -> account settings -> email accounts -> add additional mailboxes.
I can't seem to find any way of stopping people from gaining access. Already tried the delegations but that is seperate from the above.

BCS TechSource is an IT service provider.
You might check if this option in outlook can be controlled via group policy. i know there are sets of ADM files for office 2007.
The downside with this is that it doesn't prevent a user from creating an outlook profile and connecting to another user's mailbox. you might double check mailbox permissions - deny them completely and see if that even affects the problem.
May 3, 2010 at 7:33 UTC
Thanks Andrew,
I've looked through the ADM files but was unable to get a resolution. Looked again through the permission but nothing unusual. The only thing I spotted was that in Mailbox Rights the user 'everyone' is in it. After removing this and ensuring the 'SELF' and '%user%' were correctky set, it didn't give me permission at all to get into the mailbox..... HELP!

I Dont Blog. I dont see the point, to be honest. But still, here I am, writing a blog. Oh, I am such a hypocrite (Spell Check, anyone?).
I would also like to request that somebody make a page for Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City, the recently announced Resident Evil title coming the the Xbox 360 and PS3 this winter, along with the HD remakes of Code Veronica X and Resident Evil 4. Here a reference link to information about Operation Outbreak:
And heres one about the remakes:
That Operation Raccoon City sounds pretty good. And the option to kill some of the original RE cast (Or more specificly in my case, Leon. I hate that do good, emo B******! But I suppose this was back before Resident Evil 4 when he became an emo and gained super powers, so I may let him live. Or not) sounds promising.

A mechanical bowel obstruction can develop in either the small
intestine or the large intestine (also called the colon). The condition
partially or completely prevents the contents of the intestine from
flowing normally through the bowels.
The picture on the left
shows a blockage in the small intestine that might develop, for example, as a
result of scar tissue formation (adhesions).
The picture on the right shows a
partial blockage in the colon caused by a tumor (cancer).
