Video Wills, Kate & Harry Want A National Conversation On Mental Health
Men are less likely to talk than women with 54% of women having had a conversation compared to 37% of men.
A public consultation is to be held on controversial plans to close 12 fire stations in London and cut over 500 firefighters' jobs to make millions of pounds worth of savings.
The capital's fire authority has been refusing to agree to the cuts, raising the threat of legal action by the Mayor Boris Johnson.
But the authority's urgency committee today gave the go-ahead for a consultation to be held.
The Mayor said:
"I'm glad that the fire authority has finally accepted the need to give Londoners the chance to consult on the Fire and Safety Plan, something I've been urging them to do for weeks.
"Their tactics proved pointless and an unnecessary waste of time. The authority must now give the Fire Commissioner, a man of 30 years' service, the freedom to run a timely consultation, free from political interference and obfuscation."
Labour's London Assembly fire spokesman, Navin Shah, said:
"There is now time to consult with people across our city and hear what they think about Boris Johnson's plans to cut 12 fire stations, 18 fire engines and 520 firefighters. His plans are reckless and will jeopardise the long-term safety and security of Londoners.
"Boris has been forced to take stock and delay his cuts which are too far and too fast. We will now hear what ordinary Londoners think about his plans and this will guide us in our battle to save our much needed frontline fire services."
Terry Stacy, a Liberal Democrat member of the authority, said:
"Londoners should not be lumbered with massive legal bills so the consultation on fire station cuts and closures will go ahead.
"Liberal Democrats call on local people to make sure their voices are heard in this process. It is now up to Londoners - they must tell Boris how strongly they want to see his cuts and closures scrapped and 520 fire-fighters' jobs retained."
Paul Embery of the Fire Brigades Union, said:
"The starting gun has been fired, and we want Londoners to join with us in defending their fire service. These cuts are reckless and wrong. They would mean nearly five million Londoners across 20 boroughs waiting longer for a fire engine, and that will place people in serious danger.
"These cuts represent the biggest threat to the ability of the London Fire Brigade to function since the days of the Blitz. It is incumbent on all of us to do what we can to fight them."

We have an Intel S3420GPLC Server Board.
6x KVR1333D3D9R9SK2/4GI. (4GB Sticks of RAM).
Server Slots are setup A1/B1 A2/B2 A3/B3.
If all slots are filled, BIOS reports ram is operating at 800MHz.
...but it's 1333.
Take out A3/B3, and BIOS reports operation at 1333Mhz again.
Has anyone out there ever heard of this nonsense? There does not seem to be any documentation anywhere that I can find regarding this issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Feb 17, 2011 at 12:26 UTC
I've seen something similar before, I think it was on a Tyan board. The memory would run at 800MHz (fastest supported speed) unless you went over a certain amount of total RAM, then they ran at 667MHz.

Feb 17, 2011 at 12:16 UTC
Make sure all memory is 1333, sounds like you have some 800mhz ones.
Another thought, try flashing the bios to latest version.

Feb 17, 2011 at 12:29 UTC
Could the memory just be idling at a lower rating? Because there are more sticks, to save power, it lowers the speed to conserve energy? A BIOS setting maybe?
Even looking at the specs for the board on Intel's site:
6 DDR3 DIMM sockets (Registered or Unbuffered)
- 2 channel native (1066/1333MHz)
I don't think it could take sticks that are rated only 800MHz.
Feb 17, 2011 at 1:56 UTC
Hmm. Checking power settings is a good idea. I'll look around.
But I'm 100% sure they're all identical.
I was wondering the same thing, if going over a certain limit of ram forced clock rates down, but I see no information regarding such a thing in their documentation.
Incredibly frustrating. Thanks for the responses.
Feb 18, 2011 at 7:40 UTC
What happens if you change the ram dimm's around in the slots, does the error move with particular dimm's, ie; if you move A3/B3 to A1/B1 does the error move with them? is the error due to one or more sticks, try them 4 at a time instead of 6, definitely update your bios, the probable cause is a faulty or wrong dimm, but it could be the slots on the MB as well
Feb 18, 2011 at 7:52 UTC
Can you look at the memory timings in the BIOS? It's possible that at the faster refresh rates it can't keep up with 4 DIMMS where it can with 2 (twice as many addresses to sweep through per cycle).
Look the "CAS 4-2-2-1" type settings and see if they can be tweaked.
Feb 18, 2011 at 9:42 UTC
After some more digging, we discovered it was actually part of the design (flaw?). We haven't been able to ask the engineers why exactly, but the Intel Memory Configuration tool just says "that's the way it is when all slots are filled."
Thanks for all your time and input guys. :D

Navajo Man Gets 35 Years for Brutal Rape and Murder of 18-Year-Old Kayenta Woman
Sankey Jim Reid of Kayenta was sentenced to 35 years in a federal prison last week for the brutal rape and murder of his friend's 18-year-old girlfriend.
As New Times reported last year, an FBI investigation showed Reid, 31, raped Nix anally in April 2014 after driving her to a dark road south of the Navajo Nation town, then suffocated her before running over her body with his car.
However, as a plea deal Reid signed with the government in January states, Reid had only tried to suffocate her. She was killed by "crushing injuries to the head and body," an autopsy later found.

The plea agreement with the Arizona U.S. Attorney's Office didn't require Reid to admit to the rape, even though he'd previously confessed to the violent act. The document states that "They had been drinking together but the victim eventually tried to escape. Sanky [sic] Reid then tried to suffocate her to quiet her. He then put her in front of his car and ran her over a number of times to make it look an accident. He then dumped body down by road."
Reid pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree murder in the deal, which was approved last week by Arizona U.S. District Judge Douglas Rayes.
Public Defender Jon Sands wrote in a sentencing memorandum earlier this week that Reid should receive no more than 25 years in prison, arguing that the attack wasn't premeditated and that both Nix and Reid were drunk. She had a .22 BAC, he wrote, and Reid's intoxication level was likely at least as high.
Before the murder, the investigation showed, Nix's boyfriend stole some of Nix's belongings to sell for his meth habit. He told her they'd been stolen by some gang members at the small town's skate park, and they went to Reid's house to ask him to help.
Reid played Good Samaritan for a time, calling police and going with Nix and her boyfriend to the skate park to look for the fictional gang members. They talked to a Navajo Nation police officer at the park, then went back to Reid's house. Nix and Reid soon left the home in Reid's car, allegedly to return to the park and talk to police again, and the boyfriend stayed behind because he was too drunk.
The boyfriend called police about 4 a.m. to report that Nix was missing -- and that her bloody underwear had been found in Reid's Nissan Murano. The vehicle was owned by the longtime girlfriend of Reid who's mother to their five children.
Reid later confessed that he and Nix stopped out on the rural road and smoked some cigarettes. She'd been drinking peach schnapps heavily all evening and passed out in the Murano. He pulled down her pants and raped her anally, he told the FBI.
Nix was found to have significant injuries to her anus and rectum, and an FBI agent told Reid during an interrogation that Nix must have suffered extreme pain from the sexual attack. Reid confessed that she'd woken up screaming.
He explained to the FBI that he didn't want her running off and telling people what had happened, so he put a hand over her mouth and tried to suffocate her. It's unclear whether he knew Nix was still alive when he ran over her multiple times.
The murder rocked the tiny Navajo town in northeast Arizona of 5,200, which in the recent past has been the location of extreme violence. In 2012, two men and two women were murdered in three separate incidents within a 12-hour period.
An October blog post by Donna Schindler, a New Zealand psychiatrist who specializes in indigenous people and works on the Navajo Nation, wrote that Nix's murder affected Kayenta the most out of four homicides that occurred there in 2014. She identified Nix as a senior at Monument Valley High School who had worked as a babysitter in the past for Reid's children. Lisa Charley, Nix's mother and a longtime worker with the Indian Health Services Clinic in Kayenta, lost a 26-year-old nephew to a shooting death that occurred just weeks after Nix's slaying, Schindler wrote.
This week, Reid filed an appeal in the case with the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court.

I've found myself on the bandwagon this week having downloaded and completed Monument Valley; just like everyone else on planet earth. It is gorgeous looking though. Maybe a bit 'hipster' in it's styling (triangles) but I can forgive that in this instance because it was such a visual experience to go through the game. Well done to all involved and I hope there's more to come.

Fair Grounds: Quarter Horse meet begins with plenty of runners
Fair Grounds in New Orleans has given its 12-date Quarter Horse meet that opens Wednesday a fresh look. The season is starting three weeks earlier than normal, the track has reduced minimums on two popular wagers, and a special night card has been scheduled – a first for the Quarter Horse meet.
Fair Grounds, which races through Sept. 1, moved up its start date after conversations with horsemen, said Eric Halstrom, the track's vice president and general manager for racing. Last year, the season started the second week of September.
"We didn't have a strong opinion on when to run the meet, it's only our fifth meet for Quarter Horses," Halstrom said. "Based on the calendars and schedules of other tracks in Louisiana, this was much better for horsemen. It fit their schedule better.
"We've got a couple hundred more horses on the grounds, and we had a race [for Friday] where 26 horses were excluded. Horseflesh is not a problem."
Jason Boulet, racing secretary at Fair Grounds, said he expects to have 1,800 sets of foal papers on file for the meet. There were 900 horses on the grounds as of last Friday.
"This is by far the most horses we've had on our backside for a Quarter Horse meet," he said.
Halstrom said purses are projected to average $170,000 a card. Fair Grounds will run eight stakes, with a collective value of $410,000. The highlight is the $150,000-added Louisiana Quarter Horse Breeders Association Sales Futurity on Sept. 1. Wednesday's card features nine trials for the finale.
Halstrom said Fair Grounds will be reducing the minimum on trifectas and pick threes to 50 cents. The previous minimum had been $1. First post is 12:40 p.m. Central daily, except this Saturday, when the card will begin at 4 p.m.
"It is our first nighttime Quarter Horse event," Halstrom said. "We had a lot of success on the Thoroughbred side with some night racing. For [Saturday], we put a little twist on it."
Fair Grounds will run some exhibition camel and ostrich races, Halstrom said.
"They've proven to be very popular," he said. "It's a good time to try this in New Orleans. We should have the whole city to ourselves. I have a feeling we'll hit a home run."
Halstrom said Fair Grounds hopes to build off its Quarter Horse meet last year, when average daily handle on the track's races was up 15 percent over 2010.
Jockey Danny Lavergne is back to defend his title against 2010 champ Alfonso Lujan, who rides Wednesday and then is to serve a week's suspension for a riding infraction from another meet. Kenneth Roberts Sr. is the two-time defending training champ at Fair Grounds. One of his chief rivals the last two years, Janet VanBebber, has retired.

Is there a way to change the maximum rows for the list dynamically?Asked by tfsforms on November 07, 2014 at 04:04 AM
Is there a way to change the maximum rows for the list dynamically? That is, I would like for the user to specify a number of rows and then have the form change the maximum number of rows based on the user's input. Actually I would like to change the minimum number of rows to this value as well so that the list will show the exact number of entries required.
This is a re-post of a comment on How to Set Up the Configurable List Widget
JotForm Support
Unfortunately, it's not possible. Why not use the widget directly? That's the purpose of it being a dynamic one. I know you want to incorporate the conditional logic on it, but it's not possible.
You may consider using plain input fields and show these fields based on the user selection on the previous fields. You can use this guide: http://www.jotform.com/help/297-Show-or-Hide-multiple-fields-at-once-using-form-collapse-tool.
Thank you!
Thanks, Welvin. I had considered using the plain inputs fields and the conditional form collapses similar to your example hotel booking form, but I may have up to 30 or more "guest detail" entries, so it would make for a pretty ugly form. I am already using the widget directly (and it works quite nicely) but was hoping to add some extra controls to help prevent user input errors. Thanks again for responding so quickly to my question.
JotForm Support
On behalf of my colleague Welvin, you are quite welcome.
Please feel free to contact us anytime if you need any further assistance. We will be happy to help.

Squid use their tentacles for hunting prey. Both of the tentacles have suction cups at the end of the long, thin arm that strikes out and captures prey. The squid uses the tentacles to pass the prey to the arms, which are only half the length of each tentacle, and the arms direct the prey to the squid's mouth. Squids hunt and dine on fish, crustaceans, marine worms and even other squid.
Squid Suction Cups
Suction cups are not only found at the end of a squid's tentacles, they also line all eight of the squid's arms. Each suction cup is lined with sharp teeth around the ring to help the squid better grasp its prey. Each suction cup has a short stalk that attaches it to the arm or tentacle.

I've been dating this guy for 3.5 months (2.5hrs long distance). Everything was amazing, but recently he told me he's having doubts about whether we have a future. He said he's confused. On one hand, the distance is scaring him. Neither of us can move right now for very serious reasons. Also, he says we don't have a lot in common. On the other hand, he told me I was his IDEAL girl and he doesn't want to let me go. He kept saying he was confused. I told him I'm serious about him, and that he needs to decide soon.
Most Helpful Guy
Distance shouldn't matter ur 27 so u or him can stay the weekend over n take turns and the future... man please u have a long time to life so time u got. Even if u don't have nothing in common its better cuz that way u can explore his or her side of what each other like. Relationship isn't about getting together n having everything or somethings in common its about getting out there together n experimenting it so if he can't handle that pressure well then u have to decided for yourself what to do but talk to him first n see where it takes u00|00|0
that's exactly how i feel. i want to make it work with him. but i don't know what he will decide :/
i just hate waiting. this also happened at the worst time bc tomorrow is Valentine's day.
Yeah so don't get him anything for Valentine's
Just let him see what he says n if nothing u make the decision to stay or leave

Most Helpful Girl
Would love to get one.
Dont mind guys in tats as long as they dont cover his whole body.00|00|0
Thanks for the MHG! ;-)
Have an opinion?
Not a fan, I don't really like them. Most of the time they look trashy. Some guys can rock tribal tattoos and all, but I wouldn't want my future SO to have one, and I'm not planning to get one myself neither.
I think they look on some people!
Generally I like tattoos. They can be sexy.
They are represent something for the individual, and I think that's beautiful.
I love them, I regret a majority of mine but its whatever, they're easy to cover up when i find a good artist.
I usually don't like them. There are some instances where I think they're cool.
Wanted it when I was 13 maybe, due to peer pressure.
But not into it anymore. Not my thing.
I'm not very keen. Some can be very pretty, but it means that your look isn't as adaptable.
I definitely don't have the commitment to get even something really special and meaningful tattooed on my body
not impressed with them. i'm not against them or anything but i don't see how they have any of the subversiveness that they once had. they are so common it seems more subversive not to have any tats now. i feel the same way with piercings as well.
i think they're trashy, and just a waste.

A few friends and I are attending an 80's rock concert in June. We ordered some band iron ons for t shirts and were planning to decorate the shirts with tassels and beads (such was the style in the 80's) but I can't seem to find any pictures or ideas on the web for this! Does anyone know where I can find them?

Okay, I feel old... And I'm still in my twenties! Here's what we did back in the day... We cut slices into the sleeves and hem about a half inch apart (think of fringed jackets), added pony beads with knots as spacers and to finish off the fringe.
Hey, don't feel old, haha. I am only 27 myself. ^_^ Thanks for the tip!
I just made my daughter two of them for her birthday (she saw them in a movie made in the eighties and loved them).
I bought shirts that were two sizes too big and cut off the sewed bottom on the bottom of the shirt and the sleeves. Then I took a good pair of sewing sissors and sliced in 1/4 inch (not perfect) sections about four inches up all the way around the bottom of the shirts and all the way up the sleeve (until I hit where the sleeve is sewed on) At the bottom of each one of the cuts cut a small v, just so you can get the bead on.
Slide the bead to the top of the slice you made in the shirt and make a small knot at the bottom. Then pull the bead down and put some force on it to make sure the knot is tight enough. Continue for the rest of the shirt.
And just as a whatever, it took me about and hour and a half per shirt to do....so make sure you have uninterupted time to do them. Once you get interupted, you lose the "flow" you were getting into to.
email me at email@example.com and I will send you pictures of one of the shirts that my daughter won't take off!!! (I use Kodak easy share)
Good Luck-Misty
i borrowed this pic from off yahoo -
http://www.stur trosevinebig.jpg
cool ! i love them !
have you ever seen the bandanas that have been fringed ?!?!
they are then used as neckerchiefs
-heres the link !
That shirt's a pretty cool idea because it slopes down in like a "V"... awesome bandana too!
You might try finding some C.D.s of groups from the 80's. They will have pictures and might give you ideas. Good luck.
My fav t shirt was White and plain then it had
a band of tassel like string sewn in a V on front
with silver stars and crystal beads that were clear.
I loved that shirt and got lots of attention in it,
wow I miss that shirt. Good luck and have fun.
Oh I loved the eighties and I am umm a bit past 20..hehe There are vintage clothing sites out there just do a search on vintage clothing and you will come up with the sites. I don't have them bookmarked or I would share and even if I did, I have a major clutter problem here :)
Good luck and have fun!

Such joining may be achieved with the two members or the two members and any additional intermediate members being integrally formed as a single unitary body with one another or with the two members or the two members and any additional intermediate member being attached to one another. Such joining may be permanent in nature or alternatively may be removable or releasable in nature.
Sequencer 30 comprises a mechanism formed from one or more structures configured to impede or inhibit activation of activation mechanism 35 and to impede activation of a signal transmitting connection between electronic device 24 and its mounted structure, circuit board 22, while electronic device 24 is secured to circuit board 22 by fasteners 26. Sequencer 30 is movable between a first access providing position permitting connection between connector portions 34 and 36 to be activated and a second access impeding position (shown) inhibiting activation of the signal transmitting connection. Sequencer 30 is further configured such that fasteners 26 inhibit movement of sequencer 30 to the first position when fasteners 26 are in the fastened position.
In the particular example embodiment illustrated, sequencer 30 includes impeding portion 50, access portion 56, fastener engaging portion 60 and handle 64. Impeding portion 50 comprises that portion of sequencer 30 configured to impede, restrict or block access to activation mechanism 35 when sequencer 30 is in the access impeding position. In the particular example illustrated, impeding portion 50 extends at least partially across passage 40 to impede access to activation mechanism 35. In other of embodiments, portion 50 may obstruct access to mechanism 35 in other manners.
Access portion 56 comprises a slot, channel, cut out, opening, gap or other void in sequencer 30 configured to provide access to activation mechanism 35 when sequencer 30 is in the access providing position. In a particular example illustrated, access portion 56 is configured to be located at least partially across passage 40 to an extent sufficient to provide adequate access to activation mechanism 35 for activating the signal transmitting connection via mechanism 35. In one embodiment, the access provided by portion 56 is sufficient to facilitate insertion of a tool (not shown) through passage 40 and through portion 56 into engagement with activation mechanism 35.
Fastener engaging portion 60 comprises that portion of sequencer 30 configured to engage at least one of fasteners 26, or a structure coupled to at least one of fasteners 26 so as to move with fasteners 26, when at least one of fasteners 26 is in the fastened position so as to restrict or impede movement of sequencer 30 to the access providing position. Fastener engaging portion 60 is further configured to be moved past, across, through or otherwise at least partially by at least one of fasteners 26 when fasteners 26 are in the unfastened position (shown in broken lines) to permit sequencer 32 move to the access providing position. In the particular example illustrated, fastener engaging portion 60 comprises an edge of sequencer 30 configured to engage an edge of one of fasteners 26 when fasteners 26 are in the fastened position and to pass beneath at least one of fasteners 26 when fasteners 26 are in the unfastened position. In other embodiments, such engagement and disengagement with fasteners 26 may occur in other fashions.
Handle 64 comprises that portion of sequencer 30 configured to serve as an interface for facilitating movement of sequencer 30 between the access impeding position and the access providing position by a person. In one embodiment, handle 64 is configured to be manually grasped by a person to enable the person to move sequencer 30. In yet another embodiment, handle 64 may be configured to enable a person to engage sequencer 30 using a tool (not shown) to facilitate selective movement of sequencer 30. Although handle 64 is illustrated as projecting above electronic device 24, in other embodiments, handle 64 may extend to one side or end of electronic device 24 or may be partially enclosed or received within a portion of electronic device 24. Handle 64 may have a variety of configurations and locations.
Bias 32 comprises one or more mechanisms configured to resiliently bias or urge sequencer 30 towards the access impeding position. Bias 32 causes sequencer 30 to automatically move to the access impeding position once a person releases handle 64. In the example embodiment illustrated, bias 32 further causes sequencer 30 to move to the access impeding position upon release of handle 64 such that fasteners 26 may be moved to their fastened positions without being obstructed by sequencer 30. In one embodiment, bias 32 comprises one more springs having a first portion coupled to sequencer 30 and a second portion coupled to another structure, such as electronic device 24, fasteners 26 or circuit board 22. In another embodiment, bias 32 may comprise other resiliently biasing structures or may be omitted.
In operation, to assemble electronic device 24 to circuit board 22 and to establish signal a transmitting connection therebetween, electronic device 24 is positioned relative to circuit board 22 with connector portion 36 appropriately aligned or positioned me with respect to connector portion 34. In this position, fasteners 26 are in the unfastened position or state as shown in broken lines. Using handle 64, a person moves sequencer 30 against the bias force of bias 32 (indicated by arrow 75) in the direction indicated by arrow 77. This results in fastener engaging portion 60 being moved at least partially past fastener 26 as indicated by arrow 79 and further results in impeding portion 50 being moved to out of passage 40 and access portion 56 being moved in the direction indicated by arrow 81 at least partially across access passage 40. Once portion 56 has been sufficiently positioned across passage 40, a user may access and engage activation mechanism 35 through passage 40 and through portion 56 to activate a signal transmitting connection between connector portions 36 and 34. Upon such activation, handle 64 may be released, wherein bias 32 returns sequencer 32 the access impeding position shown. In the access impeding position shown, sequencer 30 does not obstruct movement of fasteners 26 to their fastened positions. As result, the person may actuate fasteners 26 to their fastened positions securing electronic device 24 to circuit board 22.
Because sequencer 30 inhibits activation of a signal transmitting connection between connector portions 34 and 36 while electronic device 24 is fastened or secured to circuit board 22 by fasteners 26, sequencer 30 reduces or eliminates the likelihood of damage to connector portions 34, 36, electronic device 24 or circuit board 22 brought about by such connection or assembly procedures been performed out of sequence. Moreover, bias 32 enables a person to begin such assembly steps without having to first ascertain the current positioning of sequencer 30 or of fasteners 26, reducing assembly complexity and time consumption.
Activation mechanism 135 comprises a mechanism configured to enable selective activation of connector portions 134 when connected to a corresponding connector portion of electronic device 124. In the example embodiment illustrated come activation portion 135 includes and activation interface 137 by which activation mechanism 135 may be activated using a tool (not shown). In other embodiments, activation mechanism 135 may be activated in other fashions. Although activation mechanism 135 is illustrated as being provided as part of connector portion 134 of circuit board of 122, in other embodiments, activation mechanism 135 may alternatively be provided as part of a connector portion of electronic device 124.
In the particular embodiment illustrated, connector portion 134 and activation mechanism 135 comprise a cam-actuated zero insertion force micro pin grid array socket, commercially available from Tyco Electronics. In the particular embodiment illustrated, activation interface 137 is configured to be activated using a tool such as an Allen wrench. In other embodiments, connector portion 134 and activation mechanism 135 may comprise other activatable connector portions. Although circuit board 122 is illustrated as having two connector portions 134 and two activation mechanisms 135, enabling circuit board 122 to be connected to two electronic devices 124, in other embodiments, circuit board 122 may alternatively include a greater or fewer number of such electronic device mounting locations.

You might also want to consider a backup drive. There is nothing worse than spending lots of time, money and effort, only to see it disappear on a failed drive. The digital world brings may conveniences, but one of the major problems is that data is essentially ephemeral. Keeping it alive is a committment.
USB-only drives are not recommended, and SATA-only drives cannot be connected to our system. Either Firewire 400 or 800 will work.
The drive should be for the exclusive use of your recording project, and should be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the Disk Utility found in the Utilies folder on any modern Macintosh. If you bring your drive to us directly from the store, we will format it for you. If you want to use your session on a Windows machine running Pro Tools, you may format the drive using FAT32. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should the drive be formatted using NTFS, as we will not be able to write to the drive. Note that if your drive is formatted FAT32, we will record the session using our drives and transfer the session to your drive.
Our favorite drives for recording work are made by Glyph Technologies. They are a bit more expensive than most drives, but they are very well built and extremely reliable and have the best warranty of any drive manufactured today. Your recording is a precious investment of time, money and artistic resources - why entrust it to a cheap drive? A great resource for drives in New York is TekServe on 23rd Street.

It's here folks! One of the three times a year I find myself watching TV (sure, sometimes someone will have the TV on in my living space and and I'll join them in spectating, but you'd be witnessing a rarity if you saw J.S. himself turning on the television and watching a "show").
I just wanted to post this blog containing my predictions and feeling about the 82nd Academy Awards. I wasn't able to watch the show live for the past two years, but I hold a high opinion of what I saw in 2008. "Change" seems to be the word parading around this year's Oscars. Two hosts, ten nominees for Best Picture and... well, I'm not really sure what else.
This year is going to be a battle between "Avatar" and "The Hurt Locker." Hear this, one of those two will win wherever they are nominated.
Allow me to quickly go through some* of the categories (*i.e. I don't really have an opinion on the Short Films, I haven't seen or heard anything about them). I will anticipate who will win and also let you know who should win. But first I find it crucial for an honest acknowledgement on my part: I returned home from a mission near September's terminus, I had 24 months of "inactivity" in the world of film, including the first 9 months of 2009. I know this is a poor excuse, with today's amazing accessibility to all released film I could've easily "caught up" with those pictures I missed. Alas, I'm behind in 2009 and actually have only seen four of the ten films nominated for Best Picture. Before you stop reading (and/or begin thinking the curator here at Film Tome let me assure you that I've researched all of the Best Picture nominees over the past months and most of the other feature-length titles. I am a film scholar and I am aware of much of the going-ons in Hollywoodland and beyond. So, read on if you will.
Will Will: The Hurt Locker
Should Win: The Hurt Locker
Up until Friday, I was leaning towards "Avatar" taking home the little gold man for the night's highest honor, but then I learned about the procedure in which voting for this category is being handled. Members of the Academy have been asked to rank the Best Picture nominees from 1 to 10, introducing a "transferable vote" system. In essence, a film with 11% of the votes could be the winner, not to mention it takes into account how the Because of this, and because of how well "The Hurt Locker"
Will Win: Kathryn Bigalow
Should Win: James Cameron
Bigalow did an outstanding job with "The Hurt Locker," and I would be very pleased when she wins. She also has the spotlight on her for potentially bein the first female to win the Directing award. Kathy, more power to ya! But in all honesty... Cameron has changed cinema forever with "Avatar." He did it ever so magnificently. As far as "achievement" goes James takes the cake.
Will Win: Jeff Bridges
Should Win: Jeff Bridges
I've heard nothing but praise for this actor in this performance who is long overdue for receiving some love from the Academy. Bridges is great in everything I've seen him in. Let's honor him.
Will Win: Meryl Streep
Should Win: Meryl Streep
Meryl Streep is Julia Child! She gave an impeccable performance and was by far the best part of the fairly good film, "Julie & Julia."
Will Win: Christoph Waltz
Should Win: Christoph Waltz
His performance has been all the rage. People are picking it out as one of the best things about "Inglourious Basterds." As I have learned from experience: one of the best things in a Tarantino film is a truly spectacular thing.
Will Win: Mo'Nique
Should Win: Mo'Nique
I have yet to see "Precious," but the clips I've seen of Mo'Nique's performance as the horrible and abusive mother of a pregnant and deranged teenager is astounding. It isn't pleasant, but we're talking about arts.
Will Win: Up
Should Win: Up
As J.S. knows this is not Pixar's greatest, although some people claim it is. It is an exceptional film though!
Okay folks, there are some of my predictions. I gotta roll... enjoy the show!

Plymouth, N.H.— The Nashua Symphony Orchestra (NSO), New Hampshire's oldest professional orchestra, has been delighting New Hampshire audiences for generations.
Led by Music Director Jonathan McPhee, the NSO will be joined by its affiliated Symphony Chorus and celebrated baritone Phillip Lima for a family-friendly program celebrating this state's history of creative inspiration, at 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 26 at Plymouth State University.
In addition, the Kennett High School chorus from North Conway will join the NSO Chorus for "Help is on the Way," by composer Kevin Siegfried, a resident of Dover.
The program will be presented in Hanaway Theatre at the Silver Center for the Arts.
"Made in New Hampshire" will feature music that has a connection to the Granite State, either through history (Bernard Herrmann's "Devil and Daniel Webster"), the MacDowell Colony (music of Bernstein and Gershwin), or by presenting the music of a current New Hampshire composer, Joseph Schwantner, whose "Chasing Light …" is a kind of musical love letter to the natural beauty of the state.
Schwantner, a Pulitzer Prize-winner, was selected as composer for the second round of the "Ford Made in America" program, the largest orchestral co-commissioning program in U.S. history.
"Chasing Light …" is inspired in part by a poem written by Schwantner. Explaining his sources, Schwantner said, "'Chasing Light … ' draws its spirit, energy and inspiration from the celebration of vibrant colors and light that penetrate the morning mist as it wafts through the trees in the high New England hills. Like a delicate dance, those images intersected with a brief original poem that helped fire my musical imagination." [Shott Music]
Schwantner has enjoyed particular success in the orchestral world. After winning the Pulitzer Prize for "Aftertones of Infinity," Schwantner composed "New Morning for the World: Daybreak of Freedom" for narrator and orchestra, based on words from Martin Luther King Jr., which has since entered the standard repertory of orchestras nationwide.

Come join the Scottish Ghost Nights Team as we stay overnight at this fascinating location.
Lapwing Lodge started Life as a Sanatorium for Coats Mill workers in 1910. At this time the veranda was open to the elements for the patients to be wheeled out into the fresh air to recover. It remained in their ownership until 1955. Some of the former residents are said to have never left….. Just the mention of Lapwing Lodge will send shivers down the spine of many a Scout. Now a thriving outdoors centre just outside of Glasgow, the site was
once a Sanatorium for Coats Mill workers. Today, the Lodge still houses many ghosts, but perhaps the most famous is the ghost of the White Lady, the beloved sister of a woman who was murdered nearby, and who roams the front and back fields.
In 1959 it was offered to Paisley Burgh and Renfrew County Council, but rejected, after which the building deteriorated. Ownership changed again this time to the Red Cross in 1960 and Paisley Scouts used the grounds for camping.
Lapwing Lodge seems to still attract its former guests, there are stories of the grey lady who was a nurse there and still looks after the guests in the dormitories that were once occupied by patients of the sanatorium. There is reported poltergeist activity with a spirit of a gentleman who loves a good puzzle in the lounge. Staff also tell of the children who were killed in a tragic accident nearby and can still be heard playing. Many persons lived the end of their days here and are said to still be resident. Will you find out which room held the dead? What secrets will Lapwing Lodge reveal of its former purpose?
Your night includes:
- A light supper to fuel you for the activities ahead
- A ghost hunt from 9pm to 2am including ghost hunting workshop and vigils
- Overnight accommodation in 4-6 bed dormitories
- A late continental breakfast and checkout by 10:30am
