If you have a personal computer at home you have certainly tried to write documents for your personal or work purposes. Therefore, you are familiar with the Microsoft Word application. Now it all depends on the version of this program that you have installed: the earlier 2003, the improved 2007 one or the 2010 version that we bring into discussion here. If you handle the 2003 version, you should be able to understand and work your way through the latest releases. However, you should know that the 2007 and 2010 are designed with a different, much more fluent user interface.
Given the fact that the advantages of Word 2007 have been already discussed in another article we should now focus on the improvements that the 2010 version brings to the prior one. To begin with, the new Ribbon user interface groups tools by activity and places at hand the commands you use more often. In Word 2010 you have the possibility to customize the Ribbon so that the frequently used commands are available altogether. This new interface is result-oriented and shows the tools in a clear and organised manner, thus saving time and providing you with the full benefit of the program's capabilities. The Backstage visualization is another important element of Word 2010 that you must be familiar with if you wish to prove your skills concerning this application. Also, in this program you can now quckly navigate through documents with large content. What is more, you can easily reorganize documents through drag-and-drop instead of Copy-Paste. And you can use incremental search whenever you don't know exactly what to search for. These are only a few features available in the Microsoft Word 2010 version.
We should now bring into question what utility does a powerful use of Word 2010 brings to you and your job. Let's begin by stating that the best utility you can find for Word when you are a pupil or a student is to write projects and synthesis on the matters you are being taught. Therefore, you can hone your skills in this application since your early childhood. Nowadays, it is often that children are being asked to do their homeworks after online research and to write what they have found out in Word. It is a more pleasant and easy-to-read way to present your homeworks. Also, school projects are to be written using this application and then printed, properly covered and presented in front of the class. Final papers for license and disquisition are also presented in this way, often with a Powerpoint presentation to focus on the main studied topics. Concerning the educational environment, all teachers from any levels must be familiar with this program
We should not draw the conclusion that only the people involved in the educational field can use a certification in MS Word 2010. Anyone working in an organisation can be asked, at a certain point, to write a document for various purposes. Not to mention that if you are or you would like to become writer, translator, analyst or journalist you are forced to master it. The times when everything was written on paper by our own hands have been long gone. In the end, we live in the era of data and computing so we must adapt to it, isn't it so?
You might be inclined to think that there is no use in having a certification for Word. But what harm can it do for you? Once you have the skills, why shouldn't you prove them to everybody? If you know Word 2003 it is good, if you know 2007 the better for you. But if you know Word 2010 you will prove that you are up-to-date with the latest developments in this field. Online certifications are easy to get and are worth relying on when it comes to improving your resume. So you can opt for an online Microsoft Word 2010 certification. Brainmeasures.com is a trustable provider of a Microsoft Word 2010 test and has an ISO 9001-2008 certification for its activity concerning online certifications and employment testing. So you should pay the website a visit and take the online Microsoft Word 2010 exam that grants you the proof you are the perfect person to rely on when it comes to dealing with documents.

Ultimate Fighting Championship competitor Mark Hominick will enter the home of the Toronto Argonauts for the biggest fight of his career in enemy colours.
Hominick, who faces Brazilian featherweight champion Jose Aldo at UFC 129 on April 30 in Rogers Centre, announced a sponsorship deal with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats Wednesday that will see the Thamesford, Ont., native risk a bit of his home field advantage by wearing a Ticats hat as he enters the octagon and the team's logo on his shorts during the fight.
"I am very excited about this partnership with the Tiger-Cats," Hominick said. "I can't wait to enter the octagon, in Canada, with millions of CFL and Ticats fans cheering me on. I am grateful for the Ticats support and look forward to representing the black and gold with pride."
As part of the partnership, Hominick will also be featured at 'MMA Night' at Ivor Wynne Stadium when the Ticats host the Saskatchewan Roughriders on July 16.
"The popularity of MMA in Southern Ontario and in particular the Hamilton area is no secret," said Tiger-Cats president Scott Mitchell. "We look forward to working with Mark to promote an exciting game on July 16th featuring great MMA fighters and thousands of MMA enthusiasts. As an exciting, tough, local Canadian athlete, Mark embodies many of our organization's characteristics. We are glad to be in Mark's corner as he contends for the featherweight title and we know our fans in the TigerTown region will be behind him."
Hominick, 20-8-0 in his mixed martial arts career, enters the bout as a big underdog against Aldo, 18-1-0 and permanent fixture on most MMA observers' best pound-for-pound fighter list.Report Typo/Error

About the Book
The Devil Walks in Mattingly
For the three people tortured by their secret complicity in a young man's untimely death, redemption is what they most long for...and the last thing they expect to receive.
It has been 20 years since Philip McBride's body was found along the riverbank in the dark woods known as Happy Hollow. His death was ruled a suicide. But three people have carried the truth ever since --- Philip didn't kill himself that day. He was murdered.
Each of the three have wilted in the shadow of their sins. Jake Barnett is Mattingly's sheriff, where he spends his days polishing the fragile shell of the man he pretends to be. His wife, Kate, has convinced herself the good she does for the poor will someday wash the blood from her hands. And high in the mountains, Taylor Hathcock lives in seclusion and fear, fueled by madness and hatred.
Yet what cannot be laid to rest is bound to rise again. Philip McBride has haunted Jake's dreams for weeks, warning that he is coming back for them all. When Taylor finds mysterious footprints leading from the Hollow, he believes his redemption has come. His actions will plunge the quiet town of Mattingly into darkness. These three will be drawn together for a final confrontation between life and death...between truth and lies.

Cold: it offers up a frozen wonderland to those willing to test their limits (read: ice climbing, empty surf breaks, alpine hikes), but it can also feel pretty miserable if you aren't prepared for it. To get ready for the coldest of seasons, I asked for some field-tested advice on fending off the chill from a slew of athletes who know a thing or two about playing in sub-freezing temps:
Plan ahead for changes in body temperature
"Obviously the main thing I do is bring a lot clothing," says Colin Haley, an alpine climber who's tackled routes in frigid areas of Alaska and Patagonia. He knows the importance of layering to maintain ideal body temperature, but he's learned to anticipate changes in body temperature as well: "When I've been stopped and I'm about to start exercising hard, I make sure to strip down a couple of layers before I even begin. It takes discipline to strip off layers when you're already cold, but you'll be way too hot otherwise. If you are too hot, then you sweat too much. Sweat makes your clothes wet, which in turn will make you way too cold when you stop." Likewise, Haley makes sure to pile on the layers when he stops to catch his breath, helping his body retain heat. Rock climber Chris Sharma reminds us that eating well and getting enough calories is also crucial to an even body temperature.
Protect your body—all of it
"After freezing my eyeballs (literally) during a windy, single-digit 100km race, I learned not only must we cover our skin, we need to cover everything," says Krissy Moehl, an ultra trail runner. That means investing in sunglasses or clear lenses for cold weather running or climbing, and goggles for snowboarding and skiing. Be sure to coat skin in a layer of SPF to prevent sunburn (yes, it can happen in the winter, too!). "Cover your extremities," says Sharma. "We lose a lot of heat from our head, neck, hands and feet."
Wear the right fabrics
Like it or not, cotton has no place in cold temperatures, and that includes denim. According to Haley, even wool is no match compared to synthetics, but Moehl argues that it all depends on where you live. "Living in the Pacific Northwest, and now in Colorado, I've learned that 40 degrees and wet is much colder than 25 degrees and dry," says Moehl. She combats the difficulty of layering against wet conditions by slipping on lightweight wool layers closets to the skin. A lightweight, waterproof shell jacket and pants can cut out bulky layers by blocking wind and rain.
"Fingers and toes always seem to be the things that suffer the most for me when it's cold out," says rock climber Olivia Hsu. She battles frigid digits by using hand-warming packets, or brings along hot tea in a Thermos. Mittens are warmer than gloves, and Moehl suggests wearing a wool glove liner so skin isn't exposed completely if you need to slip off a mitten.
Keep a stash of dry clothing in the car
"A key to cold, wet conditions is to remove all layers as soon as you're done," explains Moehl. Keep dry base layers in the car for a more comfortable ride home, and a "fuzzy warm favorite" nearby for added coziness. Taking off heat-zapping wet layers will aid your body in returning to a normal temperature more quickly.
Learn from friends
The best tips are from the field, so ask friends and fellow outdoor athletes how they stay warm—they'll often have tips you won't find in a book. "Putting on ice-cold climbing shoes can be miserable when it's cold out," says Hsu. "Not only is this painful but it can hinder your performance—I like to put my shoes in my down jacket so my body heat can keep them warm while I'm belaying."
And lastly, go camping with someone you like
Sharma's parting tip for staying warm? "Have a cozy bed partner."
What is your tried and true method for fending off the chill (or at least coping with it)?

Senator Farley Notes March 21st Is New York Agriculture Day
State Senator Hugh T. Farley (R, C - Schenectady) encourages parents and educators to promote local farms during New York Agriculture in the Classroom Day on March 21st.
According to Cornell University, this day was established in 1985 to educate youth, teachers, and consumers about agriculture and the food and fiber system.
"Agriculture is New York's number one industry," Senator Farley said. "Farms in our area make significant contributions to the economy of our communities, and farm families should be recognized. This day helps recognize the industry and the people who make it work."
Each year, volunteers go into classrooms and read agriculturally-themed books. This year's book is "Lily's Garden" by Deborah Kogan Ray. After reading the book, volunteers will talk to the students about agriculture.
Earlier this month, the State Senate Majority Conference voted to approve a new budget proposal that would provide $60 million in immediate financial assistance to dairy farmers across the State. The State Budget proposal approved by the Senate would establish a new Dairy Assistance Program within the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. The program, which is similar to an initiative used in the State of Vermont, would pay eligible farmers the difference between target prices established by the Agriculture Commissioner and the combined Northeast Federal Order Statistical Uniform Price, plus the amount of the Milk Income Loss Contract X payment rate on a per-hundredweight basis. Dairy Producers would receive payments from the State in the form of a separate check based on pounds of milk produced during the 2006 calendar year. These payments would be made within 30 days of the proposal's enactment.
The Senate proposal is now subject to budget negotiations.

Not much to see here. So much is expected offensively of corner outfielders, and the players with hitting potential in this class have glaring holes elsewhere.
First-Round Talents
Sandwich-Round Talents
Second-Round Talents
1. Angelo Songco, Loyola Marymount, B-T: L-R
Undrafted out of high school, Songco has been one of the hottest college hitters in California this spring. Hot bats translate to draft helium, and Songco may have hit his way into the first two rounds. He utilizes one of the most distinctive stances in college baseball, starting deep in the box, standing tall with his bat held high. He lifts his front right leg straight up and then drops it straight down before lashing at the ball with a quick bat. His power was evident with wood bats last summer, when he hit eight homers to rank second in the Cape Cod League. An aggressive hitter, Songco is vulnerable to offspeed pitches and has difficulty covering the outside corner. Early in the count, he looks for a pitch middle-in that he can hammer. He has average speed and is an average defensive outfielder. While he has played right field for Loyola Marymount, his arm probably dictates a move to left in pro ball. But he'll be drafted for thunder in his bat, possibly as early as the supplemental first round.
2. Randal Grichuk, Lamar Consolidated HS, Rosenberg, Texas, B-T: R-R
Grichuk first made a name for himself as a power hitter at the 2004 Little League World Series, leading the tournament with four homers, and hasn't stopped hitting home runs since. He hit three longballs as the United States won the gold medal at the 2007 World Youth Championship in Venezuela, and he regularly went deep at prestigious events on the showcase circuit last summer. At the International Power Showcase at Tampa's Tropicana Dome in January, he led all comers with 20 total homers, including a 475-foot blast with a metal bat. Grichuk is more than just a masher, however. He doesn't have the prettiest righthanded stroke, but his strong hands and bat speed should allow him to hit for a solid average once he adjusts his pull-oriented ed approach. A 6-foot, 195-pounder, Grichuk has decent athleticism and fits best defensively as a left fielder. He's a below-average runner with a fringe arm, but his work ethic and passion for the game should make him a solid defender. He has committed to Arizona but is considered signable if he goes in the first three rounds as expected.
Third-/Fourth-Round Talents
3. Marc Krauss, Ohio, B-T: L-R
After starring in his first two years at Ohio and in the Great Lakes League in between, Krauss went to the Cape Cod League last summer and left as a premium prospect. He led the Cape in RBIs (34) and on-base percentage (.473) and has continued to raise his profile this spring, batting .404 and leading the Mid-American Conference with 22 homers and 61 RBIs with a week to go in the regular season. A lefthanded hitter, Krauss has a quick bat and advanced approach, as he has a discerning eye and uses the entire field. He consistently squares balls on the barrel of the bat. Some scouts wonder how much power he'll have with wood, but the consensus is he should have average pop as a pro. Though he's more athletic than most 6-foot-3, 220-pounders and has played some third base, he'll have to be a left fielder at the next level. He has arm strength but his hands, range and quickness are just adequate. Krauss' bat will have to carry him, but it's good enough to do so. As one of the best college hitters in a thin year for them, he could get taken as early as the second round.
4. Kent Matthes, Alabama, B-T: R-R
5. Blake Smith, California, B-T: L-R
6. Jabari Blash, Miami-Dade CC B-T: R-R
Fifth-/Sixth-Round Talents
7. Neil Medchill, Oklahoma State, B-T: L-R
8. Max Walla, Albuquerque Academy B-T: L-L
9. Evan Chambers, Hillsborough (Fla.) CC, B-T: R-R
10. Blake Dean, Louisiana State, B-T: L-L

BLM, San Joaquin River Gorge Management Area
P.O. Box 248
Auberry, CA 93602
559-855-3492 or 559-487-5280
Partner Information: San Joaquin River Intertribal Heritage Education Corporation (a 5-yr Cooperative Agreement is in the signature process to establish this group as an official "Cooperating Association" for BLM); Sierra Unified School District (K-12)(a 5-yr Cooperative Agreement is in process to establish a long-term educational partnership, and establish GLOBE and other resource monitoring programs to be accomplished by student-scientists); U.S. Forest Service, California Department of Parks and Recreation, Sierra Foothill Conservancy, Fresno County Sportsmen's Club, Quail Unlimited, California Department of Fish and Game, San Joaquin River Parkway and Conservation Trust. We also work with local Native American tribes and Rancherias, as well as Indian Education Programs, providing programs to their students.
Big Picture
BLM's San Joaquin River Gorge consists of approx. 6,700 acres of BLM and Bureau of Reclamation lands. The area is managed by BLM via interagency agreement. The area ranges in elevation from 750 feet to over 2,200 feet and is bisected by one of the state's largest rivers. It is an ecological transition zone from the great Central Valley to the Sierra Nevada. This area is diverse geographically, and geologically, resulting in a unique blend of plants, wildlife, habitats and a rich legacy of prehistoric and historic cultural sites. BLM is in the process of preparing a nomination package to list the area as a Cultural Resource District on the National Register of Historic Places. The area is also in the heart of the wildland-urban interface, and as one of California's largest and most embattled rivers, the San Joaquin has quite a story to tell in regards to historic and contemporary struggles over water and hydro-power issues.
Current program emphasis is on cultural heritage awareness, but we are in the process of expanding programs to include the full range of natural resource topics. The area is especially interesting from a geologic and hydrologic perspective.
Cultural Heritage programs have been in place since 1996 and serve over 2,500 school children each year. We expect to serve over 5,000 children each year as we expand our program offerings.
Facilities include a group camp/picnic area, trailhead, over 22 miles of hiking/mountain biking/equestrian trails, a walk-in campground, museum, outdoor classroom/hands-on learning center, nature trail highlighting Native American uses of native plants, a replica Native American Village site and an archaeological exploration station.

Angela M. Di Luciano (nee Pronesti), 91, of Elyria, passed away Sunday evening, January 6, 2013, at Avon Oaks Nursing Home, following a long illness. She was born November 21, 1921 and remained in Elyria until her move to Avon Oaks in 2002.
She was a member of the Elyria Women's Club, where she produced the annual Style Show for many years. She was a member of St. Jude Catholic Church. She graduated from Elyria High School in 1939.
She was woman ahead of her time. In 1947, she worked for Carpenter's Beauty Salon. She purchased the salon and worked as a hair dresser, bookkeeper, cleaning lady, and receptionist. She operated the entire business by herself. In 1957, she recognized a need for growth and became affiliated with Jo Portaro, a top cosmetologist from Cleveland. She appeared on TV with Jo Portaro on Sunday's. In 1958 she and Michael Michailides merged their businesses to become Michael-Angela's Beauty Salon. In 1966 and four shops later, she decided to "sink or swim" and open a salon at Midway Mall. This salon was to be her zenith.
Angela was a visionary and in 1958 designed her own home. She had a master bedroom with a walk-in closet before they existed. She included a family room and a two-sided fire place. She had custom made shelves in her kitchen made of wood that slid out so you could easily reach pots and pans. She remained in her home until her move to Avon Oaks.
Angela's greatest love was her family. Every Sunday there was pasta at Gimmie's, as she was affectionately called by her grandchildren. The tradition started with her own mom and continues to this day by her family.
In 1957 she partnered with her sister and introduced her second love to her family, Kelley's Island. They purchased a 13 room farmhouse, where the entire extended family enjoyed many summer sunsets. It was in the kitchen at Kelley's Island, that she began the tradition of the marathon pancake breakfast. This tradition also continues.
She is survived by four daughters, Mary Dianne Quinn (Rick) of Elyria, Kathleen Henderson of Elyria, Victoria Brian (Gary) of Cincinnati, Doriayn Schroeder (Steve) of Avon; and one son, Dean Di Luciano of Avon; two brothers, James Pronesti and Joseph Pronesti, both of Elyria; eight grandchildren, Ryan and Kelly Quinn, Koury Henderson, Ali Brian, Karliayn, Cody, and Hallie Schroeder, and Hanna Di Luciano; and five great grandchildren, Liam, Kasey and Kendyl Quinn, and Joey and Natalie Henderson.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Salvatore and Mary Pronesti (nee DeMaria); her beloved husband, Serafin J. Di Luciano on June 28, 1991; three sisters, Mary Gientkowski, Josephine Kaminski and Katherine Gallo; one brother, Frank Pronesti; and one granddaughter, Lauren Elizabeth Brian.
Friends may call at the Reichlin Roberts Funeral Home, 327 Cleveland St., Elyria, Thursday, January 10, 2013, from 4 P.M until 7 P.M. Closing prayers and a Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10 A.M., Friday, January 11, 2013, at St. Jude Church, 590 Poplar St., Elyria. (Please meet at the church) Father Frank Kosem, Pastor, will be the Celebrant. Burial will be in St. Mary Cemetery, Elyria.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Lauren Brian Scholarship Fund, SELC Credit Union, 340 Griswold Rd., Elyria, OH 44035.

Independent studio nDreams, formed by SCi/Eidos vet Patrick O'Luanaigh, has started to reveal details of its first "revolutionary" title - a story-based casual game for women.The full details on Redemption Day aren't due until July 5th, but in an initial announcement detailing the game's hunt for a publishing partner, the studio has talked of creating a game for the predominantly female casual game playing audience but with a compelling story.
Co-author of The Piano Kate Pullinger is writing the story, with support from BAFTA-nominated Gordon Rennie.
O'Luanaigh (pictured) CEO of nDreams - which he founded last year - commented: "We can't wait to present Venus Redemption to the world. After many months of development and exhaustive gameplay focus testing, we believe that it will prove a breath of fresh air for the casual game sector, and in particular for female casual gamers. With the technology behind Venus Redemption, we can now rapidly develop immersive and visually impressive story-based casual games that will run on almost any PC."

Arrow S01E14: "The Odyssey"
Have you wanted Felicity to be in on Oliver's vigilante activities?! Then tonight you got your wish!
Have you wanted an episode set mostly on the island?! Then tonight you got your wish!
Have you wanted Arrow to be more of a full-blown action show?! Then tonight you got your wish!
I've wanted that first one for a while because I enjoy Felicity and Emily Bett Rickards' portrayal of the character. The nervous energy and stream-of-consciousness chattering give her scenes a whole different vibe from the rest of the show while still feeling like they actually belong. And now that she's aware of Oliver's double life, and willing to help out—at least in locating Walter—it means we'll get more of her this season, and that's hardly a bad thing... unless all the Windows product placement that often surrounds Felicity annoys you.
Plus, if Felicity is going to be around more, it means that there'll be someone else for both Diggle and Oliver to talk to. This won't make as much of a difference to Oliver, as he gets to interact with lots of other characters, but I'm excited by the notion of Diggle having someone new to converse with. The dynamics of Oliver and Diggle's relationship don't really involve telling personal stories, especially since Oliver isn't much of a sharer. And that's fine for them since their relationship is still developing, and Oliver's still learning to let his guard down, to trust people who aren't his family or friends from before he was stranded on Lian Yu.
But Felicity is a talker, and she prompted Diggle to provide a new perspective on Oliver's actions, and whether or not Oliver's activities are "worth all the collateral damage" they incur. It was a big moment, because even though Diggle isn't shy about volunteering his opinion, he often frames them around Oliver's conscience, to keep Oliver's soul from being scrapped away. His opinions may tell us what Diggle values, but they don't tell us what Diggle thinks about this "crusade," as Felicity called it.
And so he told this story about protecting a warlord in Afghanistan and how it resulted in a number of deaths, including that of a kid 18 years old or younger who Diggle shot through the throat. Diggle, understandably, didn't feel good about that. He killed to protect a scummy warlord, after all, and no one should feel good about that. But with Oliver's "war," there is, it would appear, a sense of clarity, of well-defined lines in the battle. The goons that get killed in the process knew what they were getting into, Diggle seemed to say, with his acceptance of there being so many casualties.
It's the sort of pragmatic approach to the mission that Diggle has come to showcase. Even when he doubted Ted Gaynor's involvement with the armored truck robberies in "Trust but Verify," he still investigated the possibility of Blackhawk being involved, and that process is again playing out with his suspicions of Moira. It's something that even though we can see through his actions, Felicity's presence in this episode offered an opportunity to fill in some character motivation, and that's the sort of inner world Diggle has been missing.
Of course, this episode also showed that Felicity isn't prepared for the toll that the mission would take on her, directly or by association. This could be a good thing for both Felicity and Diggle, a reminder that perhaps the pragmatic approach to war isn't the only option. Diggle may want Oliver to make larger differentiations between those on the list, but Felicity may be able to provide a non-lethal, less violent approach in the future. Like in the form of a boxing-glove arrow. (I really hope not. But maybe some stun arrows?)
As you may have guessed from reading all this, I had more thoughts to share about the brief scenes that took place between all the stuff happening in flashbacks on Lian Yu, and if you did, you'd be right. This isn't to say that the Lian Yu developments weren't interesting or thrilling—they were—but there's less to engage with in them than there is in the interplay of characters in the present day.
Manu Bennett as Slade had an easy, delightful chemistry with Stephen Amell, veering between condescension and gruding respect without any of it feeling forced. And Amell continued to mine new depths for Island Oliver, between his excitement at recognizing challenge code—"They picked the one book I read in college!"—and the relieved sigh as Fyers' men passed right by him as he attempted to infiltrate the camp to leave with Yao Fei.
If Present-Day Oliver is compact and laser-like, then Island Oliver is a frantic man who's very nearly running on empty after being the island's butt monkey, and Amell makes them feel so wonderfully distinct but connected. That connection will be important moving forward, of course; with Slade and Oliver now having to work together to survive, Oliver's training to obtain the skills he uses in Starling City is about to begin. The determination and intensity aren't there yet, but they're coming, and I'm eager to see how the show and Amell create the throughline between these stages in Oliver's life.
The episode also introduced new mysteries for the flashbacks as well. Fyers' employer is now a voice at the very least, and Yao Fei's daughter, Shado, provides a new complication in the conflicts on Lian Yu. Obviously Fyers would have a boss, but now Arrow can start unfurling reasons as to why Fyers and his team are on the island, beyond keeping some prisoners contained. But how, oh how, did Shado end up there?
I will say that I missed the larger thematic parallels to the present-day action that normally accompany the flashbacks. While the connection was still there to a degree—means to justify the ends and doing what must be done to survive—it was also less pronounced, favoring the fighting, gunshots, and explosions. It's good that the episode played this particular aspect out through the whole episode, but it may've also highlighted that I'm more interested in how the flashbacks complement the present day than the other way around.
– In case you didn't see the news, on Monday The CW renewed Arrow for a second season. And then on Tuesday, the network announced a casting upgrade for Season 2. Be as excited, dismayed, indifferent, or cautiously optimistic as your opinion of the show dictates.
– Billy Wintergreen, Slade's traitorous partner on the show, is named for William Randolph Wintergreen. In the comics, Wintergreen is much older, but more experienced, than Slade, and essentially functions as Slade's mentor, confidant, and nurse. Basically, Wintergreen was to Deathstroke what Alfred was to Batman.
– I'm not going to talk about Shado in relation to her comic book analog. She's an important character in the Green Arrow mythology, particularly during Mike Grell's tenure with the character, but that's all I'm going to say.
– "You're bleeding." "I don't need to be told that."
– "You need a doctor, not a steel worker."
– "I'm kind of having a bad day, you know."
– Diggle's exasperated response to the electrodes coming loose was just the best.
– "I'm impressed. You didn't puke." "I swallowed it."
– "I'm trapped on an island and my only friend is named Wilson."
– Action, while fun and exciting—especially when it's well-staged, as it generally was here—isn't my primary interest with Arrow... or any show, for that matter. So please understand that my response to the Lian Yu sequences, especially with regard to a lack of discussion, was very much grounded in personal taste, and not a larger criticism of the episode. It's also what comment sections are for, so have at it!

Recently, I started playing with this new Machine Translation Service application in SharePoint 2013, which lets users automatically translate documents.
While setting up my new environment, I encountered a problem and this took me a while to figure out. Luckily I found a solution and with this article I want to share my experiences.
So what was the problem?
I quickly explain how I've set up my environment. I have a Windows Server 2012 with internet access, joined to the active directory domain and a SharePoint 2013 farm has been configured. I have run the default SharePoint 2013 Configuration wizard, and as a result all of the service applications were provisioned automatically using the default settings. I used a technical account for setting up all my service applications (including the User Profile Service application).
Next, I created a web application that contains a site collection based on the publishing template. I created a root variation label (en-us) and created different target variation labels (fr-be and nl-be). (yes, I'm from Belgium and we speak a couple of languages over here). While creating these target variation labels, you can configure how translation needs to happen. Basically, I allowed both human and machine translation.
So, I went ahead and created the hierarchies (ran the timer job "Variations Create Hierarchies Job Definition" and waited for it to complete
Then, I created a new page in the en-us site and added some text, checked in the page and then published it. When I then navigated to the fr-be counterpart, I could choose the following options from the variations ribbon toolbar:
So, I choose the "Machine Translate" action and the first time it takes a while to initialize/set up. Don't know what actually happens behind the scenes but this is the dialog that you get:
When I clicked on the "Translation Status" action in the ribbon toolbar, I could see that the page was queued for translation. After waiting for a lot of time (at least 15 minutes) the status changed to "in progress". In the meantime, I started a couple of SharePoint Timer jobs (for example the "Machine Translation Service - Machine Translation Service Timer Job").
Then, the status of the page changed to "error". I navigated to the http://<server>/variationlogs/allitems.aspx page and noticed the following information:
Translation Export
•Translation export started processing work item.
•Started exporting list /fr-be/Pages.
•Created translation package /Translation Packages/xxx_administrator/fr-be-Pages-20121031T0352480000Z-0/fr-be-Pages-0001.xlf.
•Export for item /fr-be/Pages/Home.aspx succeeded.
•Export for term Home in term set Variations Navigation (fr-be) succeeded.
•Created machine translation job 00000000-0000-109b-80ed-33471fc8c150.
•Translation export finished processing work item.
Translation Import
•Translation import started processing work item.
•Machine translation job 00000000-0000-109b-80ed-33471fc8c150 completed.
•Translation import finished processing work item.
When I retried executing the machine translation, I got the error as mentioned above (The translation failed because the online translation service was unavailable)
In the event viewer, I found the following error (Event ID 8311)
An operation failed because the following certificate has validation errors:

When enabling verbose logging on the Translation Services (via Central Admin), I could see the same kind of errors in the ULS logs:

How did I resolve this? For some reason the certificate is not trusted. I had to import the certificates (and all certificates up in the chain)
So, I opened up an Internet Explorer instance in Administrator Mode (this is important) and navigate to https://www.microsoft.com (notice I use https). Then, open the File menu (press Alt-F) and choose Properties. On that window, click the button called Certificates. Now you can view and install the certificate. Make sure you repeat this step for all other certificates in the chain. In my case, I forgot the GTE CyberTrust Global Root which results in the other certificates below the chain to be untrusted.
Then, I restarted IIS and the Machine Translation Service (via Central Admin), and hit that button in the ribbon again in order to start the machine translation of the fr-be page.
Finally it proceeded without problems, and my page was translated nicely:
I don't know whether this is related to the problem or not, but in my environment, I had explicitly disabled "Automatically update certificates in the Microsoft Root Certificate Program" in order to speed up loading of my SharePoint infrastructure. As far as I know, this should not have an impact on SharePoint, besides the .NET framework loading up assemblies faster because it doesn't need to validate certificates online.

Coronation Street
GULLIBLE Gail shocks her family with a big announcement in CORONATION STREET (7.30pm, 8.30pm, ITV) – revealing she's off to Italy with the not-at-all-blatantly-dodgy Lewis.
Mid-announcement, however, up pops a text on Nick's phone, which kind of changes things. It's from Lewis, instructing Gail to take a look at a DVD he's left her.
As the family look on, baffled, conman Lewis himself appears on the screen – to reveal at last what he's been up to all this time. "I'm afraid I've been rather a naughty boy," he smirks.

The General Secretary of the ruling Saint Lucia Labour Party (SLP), Leo Clarke, has criticized Sarah Flood-Beaubrun over a statement she made last night.
"Sarah Flood now says anything and expects to hoodwink the electorate," Clarke said.
Flood-Beaubrun had claimed last night that Prime Minister Doctor Kenny Anthony had told her that mentally disabled people do not vote.
She spoke during the DBS Television programme, Newsmaker Live, with Journalist, Timothy Poleon.
The former Minister indicated that Anthony was suggesting that she should not expend so much effort in dealing with mentally challenged individuals.
SLP General Secretary, Leo Clarke, accused Flood-Beaubrun of making a statement to the effect that the Prime Minister does not really care about mentally challenged people.
The SLP official said he was not at any discussion between Anthony and the former minister.
But Clarke declared that the record proves something totally different to the implication of Flood-Beaubrun's comments.
He recalled that the most recent intervention by the Anthony administration has created an allowance to parents of disabled children.
"I daresay that most of those children are probably not in a position to vote, but it had no effect on Doctor Anthony's decision," Clarke said.
The SLP General Secretary also spoke of Anthony's "concerted and determined effort" to introduce a home care for the elderly programme.
He said this was a clear indication of action and not mere words.
According to Clarke, it was under the watch of Prime Minister Doctor Kenny Anthony that the modern psychiatric hospital was built, to provide care and services to mentally challenged people.
"Doctor Anthony's record of caring for the needy and less fortunate is pretty clear," he declared.

Ok, I only kinda used Google Plus to write this blog. I wanted to post how much I loved a commercial I saw over the weekend, because I almost never see commercials and when I do, I almost never watch them, so it was such an anomaly that I actually saw a commercial that I liked that I had to blog about it. Plus it has to do with social media. Kinda.
I'm also the guy that can never remember which brand a commercial was for. For example, for a long time I referred to this as "that deoderant commercial". Which is where Google Plus comes in. Prepare yourself though, this is the least sexy way to use Google Plus.
I wanted to blog about the commercial but couldn't remember the brand to even look it up on youtube, so I posted on Google Plus this question:
Help: I saw a commercial this weekend where a teenager is at her laptop and she's talking about how her parents have no "friends" because they only have 19 friends on Facebook, they're so lame, etc, and meanwhile it's showing her parents out mountain biking and doing wild stuff with friends while the girl is at the kitchen table at her computer.
Anyone know what brand that was and bonus points for a youtube link to the video?
And thankfully, a few friends came to the rescue: Gresham and Sparno. They both shared the youtube video so alas, you can watch this commercial for…well I already forgot, but its an automotive company and I thought it was great. Video at the bottom of this post.
Regarding Google Plus, I have used the video chat with multiple people and that seems to be the killer feature to me. I LOVE it. I need a way to record those sessions so I can grab some people and do some video roundtable-esque podcast deals.
My early thoughts on Google Plus?
- The circles concept (you can group people into circles) is interesting but it already seems cumbersome. Do I put people in circles based on the company they work for? What if they switch jobs? Do I put them in a category like "social"? What if they start a new profession? Seems like it will quickly become hard to manage.
- Love the ability to have video chat embedded within a social network. But then again, Facebook is doing this now so we'll see.
- At the moment I find it nice to have less clutter since EVERYONE I'VE EVER MET isn't on Google Plus yet like they are on my other networks. So I like that for now but that will change. This is where circles could help.
- Waiting for an iPad app. I know, I know.
- Also waiting to see what the API will allow for as I think that will be a major indicator of the ultimate success of this platform.
- Seems hard to send someone a direct message w/o having to email them. Maybe that's on purpose, not sure. Or maybe I'm missing it.
Love to hear anyone else's thoughts on Google Plus so far.

How to "mute" kernel errors?
Every 5 or 10 seconds, I get a kernel error related to my PCMCIA Wireless Adapter.
Dump of the last line of /var/kern.log:
Jan 5 15:20:28 LAP-TRAVELMATE kernel: [ 1556.500188] phy0 -> rt2500pci_set_device_state: Error - Device failed to enter state 1 (-16)
What do you think? Is there a simple way to troubleshoot this particular problem or should I just disable the display of errors (and if so how to do that)?
Thanks in advance,
Sometimes the device driver has a setting for verbosity and if any 'modinfo [modulename]' should show. Else some modern Syslog replacements allow for filtering out messages. For Rsyslog a filter line would look like this:
:msg, contains, "Device failed to enter state" ~
:msg, contains, "rt2500pci_set_device_state" ~
If you want to mute kernel messages from being sent to the ttys when not running X, "dmesg -n 1" should do it. The errors will still be written to the /var/log/kern.log (or wherever syslog sends them), but won't clutter up the console.
Thank you btmiller and unSpawn for your helpful answers.
Indeed, "dmesg -n 1" did it (actually even -n 3) and provided a quick solution to the problem.
As lowering the general verbosity level muted the relevant errors as well, I will try to figure out how to set a filter asap. I have never used tools like rsyslogd but I have understood the idea from your answer (unSpawn) and I will read the doc as soon as I have the time.

Bruseels, Belgium - (Bad Ass Mess): A covert police fraud probe into Members of the EU Parliament's employment of fictitious staff and relatives has uncovered a £100 million expenses scam that has lined the coffers of Opus Dei.
"This is the tip of the iceberg," Interpol top brass sources said today after the initial findings of a three year corruption investigation showed the EU expenses gravy train's biggest beneficiaries to be paid-up members of the Vatican's private self-flagellation club.
"Their supposed daily flesh-mortification activities are a faux-pious lip-service to their god-of-choice, Mammon," the Interpol source continued.
"We've uncovered thousands of these Opus Dei racketeers whose sole sources of income have been whopping great big handouts in the form of MEPs' research expenses, orifice services and other corrupt disbursements."
"This makes Tory graft specialists like Derek Conway look like rank amateurs," a House of Commons source added after details of the £100 million annual EU scam were leaked to Whitehall mandarins.
The three year police investigation will now be extended to 1997 and cross-referenced to the Labour Party's slime into orifice under the leaqdership of Tony Blair.
"No wonder he went over to the Papists," a UK Serious and Disorganised Crime Agency official said today.
"Always said we'd nail the little f###er!"

God Through All Things? The Fall Live In Islington
Luke Turner
, December 6th, 2012 21:02
Miles away from album coming or previous, Luke Turner wonders why we all keep wandering back to see The Fall - this time live at Islington Assembly Hall. Photo by Valerio Berdini
'Deus Per Omnia' reads the Latin motto on the crest of the London Borough Of Islington in the pleasant, 1930s plaster work above the stage in the Islington Assembly Hall, a venue more accustomed to private hires and appearances by Roachford, Wishbone Ash and Uriah Heap than The Fall.
'Deus Per Omnia' - God Through All Things, or God Pervades All Things. Popular perception would have it that the old slogan to exhort the citizens of Islington to a holier life neatly sums up The Fall, here for another night of the Mark E Smith Show, with punters (yammering at hapless bar staff who have not quite provided enough Red Stripe to slake this most thirsty of crowds) desperately hoping for something to be wheeled out of the 1980s, or leering and roaring at every amplifier fiddle as if he were Widow Twankey in a button-down shirt.
But they're odd things these days, Fall gigs. They've become unsettled into a kind of anti-canon of their own. Since the (supposed) debacle of the late 90s, nobody is going to judge a Fall gig by the standard of anything else - classicism is irrelevant here, as The Fall are adroitly against the current disappointing trend of their supposed leftfield contemporaries to indulge in classic album rehashes or greatest hits jamwagons.
So why do they still come, to these odd off-circuit venues - the punters I mean, not the band? It's simply that there are new temptations. I know a fair few people who were born around the time The Fall played early gigs, and beyond. A cursory look at the always reliable Fall fan site reveals that exactly 34 years and a day ago, as I was hacked out into existence in St Luke's Hospital, Bradford, at Strathclyde University, Glasgow The Fall played "With Here and Now and Patrik Fitgerald. No tape exists?". What keeps us 'weren't there until Dingwalls '99' crowd (or much later) coming back for more than a freak show, for more than a trip down a memory lane that - of course - never actually existed for us? If you're in your early to mid-20s, you're not going to see The Fall merely because 'Mark might do something mad' (he got that out of his system in the late 90s) or 'they might play all of Hex (it'll never happen, none of us are that stupid).
Instead perhaps The Fall in late 2012, with nothing to plug and a new album vaguely scheduled for some point in late Spring next year (no deal yet signed), appeals because for once you actually get to see a group subverting itself, while wandering, in its own idiosyncratic way, somewhere else. The Fall, as Mark E Smith well knows, is a work in progress, an evolution.
They're still edgy, Fall gigs. Not in a nasty old sense of flung broken glass and violence, but because there's no money back guarantee. Usually when you watch a group a long while (a year and five weeks) after the release of an album and some time before the next one, there's an awkward balance of the apologetic and easy gratification, and the faux-polite 'do you mind?' as they attempt something new before gratefully getting back to the last no-mark single.
Instead, here we witness the head-scratching putting together of nuts and bolts of what pugnacious tracks driven by Dave Spurr's held-high bass like 'Gray' and 'Spider/s' might become. The moments when Smith's sat at the back and murmuring as the band play on are the gestation that we're invited to watch. The Fall, through their rigourous touring regime of recent times, have not only emphasised that they have no truck with nostalgia, but also invited us into their creative process. So much for a dictatorial group. Obviously The Fall always did this, and will continue to do this, it's just a shame that their supposed iconoclast contemporaries were so quick to sink into the miasma of retro professionalism.
Someone is here tonight, randomly in town on two weeks away from work for the UN in Africa. He says he's seeing The Fall for the first time since the 1980s, and that Mark E Smith sat in a chair behind the amplifier as the group grind on serves to emphasise that the band members are a tool of Him - 'Deus Per Omnia' - God Through All Things.
But Smith is not omnipotent over The Fall, even if he is omnipresent. Listen to 'Cowboy George' or 'Bury' - always look out for the tracks from the album before last - Smith is up front and snapping it out. It's when it breaks down to more abstract moments than I've ever heard from The Fall before that the direction they're perhaps heading in makes sense - back to when they were weirder, and still ahead of the faux weird. If Smith was the egotist dictator, why would he be allowing the group the space to move out into the tightly ironed groove of 'Chino' where, when he's sat behind the amp, it's Elena, his General Montgomery (as well as a black handbag she carries a huge Waitrose carrier, which our friend surmises might contain the fee), who leads?
Obviously there's an old song or two whacked in there - tonight it's 'Container Drivers'. Surely chuckling it out with two mics and a "brrrrrr" in a hoe-down style is to taunt all the paunches under raised arms: 'you do that for that, when I'm offering you this?'. And yeah, the whole point of a Fall gig is that not everyone goes away happy - the problem with most gigs in the current way of doing things is that that's the idea, packaged processed and satisfying, whether you're talking the Greggs Bakers, Pret A Manger or Paul Boulangerie ends of the medium, or the stadium concert market. I'm never going to be happy when I hear The Fall crank out perennial ropey garage covers 'Strychnine', 'White Lightning' or 'Mr Pharmacist', and I get two out of three tonight. The bastard. So be it.
Ah, but of course he's not a bastard, is he? That's the biggest myth of Smith, as the Rev'd Ian Paisley of post punk. This is no God Through All Things, but intelligent artist, getting on with his own thing and not caring about anything else or what you or I think (weird how that's become a radical concept in this day and age) aside from The Fall, his curation project, and - as becomes increasingly apparent tonight - his wife. So you get 'Weather Report': still the most personal Fall track since 'Edinburgh Man' and unnerving on record, live it becomes a far more complex synopsis, reduced to toms (a couple more whacks at points and you'd be thinking of The Cure), bass, and a stabbing Korg melody from Elena, thoughtful as Smith sings - to The Fall - "I gave you the best years of my life". In the popular narrative of The Fall, with MES as washed-up drunk, that might be darkly poignant. But tonight? Nah.
Not to say that this is getting comfortable, but surely it's good to see a Fall line-up where drummer Keiron Melling is grinning his head off as Pete Greenway is encouraged to ad-lib vocals and Smith's nodding along (from the balcony his hair has gone a bit first series of Blackadder, a surprisingly strong look). What indication this gives as to the shape of the next record is unclear, but now that everyone seems aware they've become part of the process it probably doesn't matter. Indeed, there's surely no better way of pointing out how far The Fall have come from most of their peers than relating how a flier-brandishing comedy Manc comes up to me after the gig saying "Hey our kid, that didn't live up to what you were expecting... come to this," as he thrusts a notice for Peter Hook's next plod through the ancient hits of Joy Division and New Order into my hands.
But there's a sweeter way of finishing, for now. An encore of 'Psykick Dance Hall' is basically a rather sweet entanglement of Mark E Smith and Elena trying to get sufficient free wire from the forest and undergrowth of mic stands and cables for him to be able to sing 'What About Us?', wherein Smith wishes Harold Shipman might have been his generously prescribing GP. It's not quite the Lady And The Tramp pasta scene, but still, most would not expect to visit The Fall for romance. Clearly, He still moves in mysterious ways.

Excellent review. Wasn't there. Didn't need to be.
Great writing, Luke.
Thank you
Dec 7, 2012 12:10pm
Since the late '90s, The Fall have been going through their own protracted equivalent to Beefheart's dismal Unconditionally Guaranteed / Bluejeans & Moonbeams era - while remaining an intriguing, if wildly erratic, live act, their records have, on the whole, collapsed into "Will this do?" mediocrity (Country On The Click, & Your Future Our Clutter are the only probable exceptions).
I gave Perverted By Language a listen last weekend - for the first time in several years - & noticed that "Tempo House" alone has a longer word count than the entire lyrical content of the last couple of Fall albums combined - don't you think that's kind of sad?
Dec 7, 2012 12:28pm
Was a swell gig. Bouncers were on top form, really lovely to talk to. To the extremely funny Glaswegian I met in the smoking area loved your tales of essex!

In reply to Blob 59:
that's 3 in the 2000s by my reckoning - in between those two is 2005's Fall Heads Roll. Mediocrity? Don't think so.
Dec 7, 2012 1:06pm
Ate that review for lunch and am stuffed, great writing Luke.
Incredible to think that my first experience of seeing them was in 1980 (also with Patrick Fitzgerald plus The Passions supporting) and it only seems like yesterday, and that I still consider them to still be a vital and interesting listen in a 'more hit than miss' manner above 80% of bands who've been around a quarter of the time.
It's testament also to their (His?) willing shape-shifting nature and unwillingness to shave off the interesting veins, jagged bones and cartilage from their relentless sound that the contrary bastard has had career longevity the likes of most artists now would faint at even the very mention of.
Past their best or not, you'd miss them if they weren't there, and that's a pleasurable rarity.

Best gig review I've read this year.

In reply to thelateblackrob:
I agree with Blob, Fall Heads Roll is disappointingly "mediocre". At least BAD albums like Reformation Post TLC & Are You Are Missing Winner? have a certain, grisly car-crash appeal. Fall Heads Roll, meanwhile, is inexcusably boring. Ersatz GB wasn't up to much either, was it? One decent LP a decade seems about right. Ho hum.

Zainab Khan has a guest post on the Patheos blog AltMuslim, about a bullying volunteer at a mosque school. If you read the post, I think you will recognize the situation, whether from a mosque, church, or secular setting.
Often we allow our institutions to be held hostage by volunteers and donors – we become dependent on the donations or efforts of such individuals, and thus refrain from offering criticism when it is needed, because we fear that we'll lose their support.
It is an issue that Christians have struggled with at least since the time of Constantine. He's an emperor, and he's being nice (in general) to the churches after years of Christians navigating a much less hospitable situation. Who's going to challenge him? And on a smaller scale, who is going to rebuke someone who is always fixing things around the church and has done so for years?What are your thoughts on how best to navigate such a situation? It is well and good to say that bullying needs to be stopped and never tolerated. But presumably many religious institutions want to be places not just where nice, polite people can feel safe, but where those with bullying instincts can learn to overcome them. And so what balance needs to be found, if any?
A related topic came up in my Sunday school class this past weekend. We've been studying the Lord's Prayer, and are up to the petition for "daily bread" (or however it ought to be translated). One subject that came up was the practice of emperors distributing food for free as a way of capturing the allegiance and loyalty of the populace. And against that background, a request for divinely-provided food might have the implication of seeking to disentangle oneself from owing favors to those who might then ask us to support them in ways that we are uncomfortable with or downright opposed to.

Born in Zurich, Switzerland on December 20, 1969, Alain de Botton was educated at Cambridge University, England, and now divides his time between London and Washington, D.C. With the publication of his first novel, Essays in Love, de Botton quickly became one of the most talked about British novelists of the 1990s. Although the basic plot of Essays in Love (published in the U.S. as On Love) is a rather typical love story, de Botton presents it in a unique and humorous way. De Botton's other novels include The Romantic Movement: Sex, Shopping and the Novel, which is written in a similar style to Essays on Love, and Kiss and Tell, which follows a would-be biographer as he attempts to write the life story of the first person he encounters. Alain de Botton is also the author of How Proust Can Change Your Life: Not a Novel.

Wine, oh how fine!

Oh Purple,
How I love you to death.
But how often do I revert to gloom,

'tis the color of doom,

the color of my room.

THE SCHIAVO CASE: THE HOSPICE; For Those Keeping Vigil, Prayers, Tears and Talk of Transformation
By WILLIAM YARDLEY
Published: April 1, 2005
Three hours after Terri Schiavo died on Thursday morning, after her body had been taken from Woodside Hospice House for an autopsy and a Roman Catholic priest had said Mass in the grassy swale in front of the building, Guabe Garcia Jones knelt on the ground beside a piece of white poster board.
On one side was a message protesting the removal of Ms. Schiavo's feeding tube. On the other, he was writing in large letters, ''Battle Lost War Not Over.''
Kneeling next to Mr. Garcia Jones, who said he is a lawyer for American Life League, an anti-abortion group in Washington, was Paul Fratianni, who came from Bloomington, Ind.
''We don't want people to get discouraged,'' Mr. Fratianni said, explaining the shift in message. ''I'm sure there are many pro-life people who have been watching for 30 years and feeling powerless. I want people to keep fighting the good fight.''
After word spread that Ms. Schiavo had died, the dozens of demonstrators outside the hospice did not erupt in violence or anger. Many simply prayed and sang and cried. And many people, including some prominent religious advocates, were quick to portray Ms. Schiavo's death as a beginning, not an end. They described it as a moment of transformation, for themselves, perhaps, but also for their supporters nationwide.
''I hope it will serve as a wake-up call to the people of God to become active in the cultural life of the nation and in the political process,'' said Joe Rogers, 61, an engineer from Dayton, Ohio, who arrived on Wednesday. ''There's a great number of people who truly say that they feel helpless. They need to take a stand when they can, even if it feels futile. That's why I came.''
Although abortion was not the issue at hand, a number of abortion opponents took up the cause of Ms. Schiavo's parents, who wanted to keep her alive, as a way to broaden the movement into one that embraces a ''culture of life.''
Several said they expected the constant focus on the story -- including the intervention it prompted at the highest political levels -- to strengthen their cause. One, Randall Terry, the founder of the anti-abortion group Operation Rescue, who is estranged from the group, became one of the most visible figures in the village of news media, demonstrators and police officers outside the hospice in the last two weeks.
Noting that the Rev. Jesse Jackson was among those who supported keeping Ms. Schiavo alive, Mr. Terry said he hoped her death would help build a broader coalition across political and religious lines. Asked what, specifically, should be done next, he quickly outlined priorities.
''We take steps to protect others from having this happen to them,'' Mr. Terry said. ''We try to carry on the discussion in a more civil manner, and we use some of this momentum to try to rein in the judiciary.''
The Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney, director of the Christian Defense Coalition, issued a statement saying his group on Friday would announce ''future plans regarding this struggle and what our next steps will be.''
Ms. Schiavo's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, included at least one anti-abortion leader, the Rev. Frank A. Pavone, the director of Priests for Life, on the list of those allowed to see their daughter. When Father Pavone arrived outside the hospice on Wednesday night, an assistant gave out a contact number, telling reporters Father Pavone would be ''one of the hottest interviews over the next day or two.''
Indeed, Father Pavone appeared on several television programs Wednesday night and Thursday, at one point calling Michael Schiavo, who fought to have his wife's feeding tube removed, Mr. Schiavo's lawyer and a local judge ''murderers.''
''This is not only a death with all the sadness that brings, this is a killing,'' said Father Pavone, who visited Ms. Schiavo minutes before she died. Some demonstrators seemed focused solely on the immediate issue of Ms. Schiavo. Some carried signs comparing Mr. Schiavo to Herod, who sought to kill Jesus. Others, standing just across the sidewalk from police officers guarding the hospice entrance, denounced the officers loudly and repeatedly. The protesters told them they one day would be viewed no differently than Nazi war criminals who claimed to have only been following orders.
And for some the setting provided more personal fulfillment. Julie Smith, 16, said that she drove down from Medina, Ohio, on Saturday with two other people, and that the battle over Ms. Schiavo had awakened her own faith.
''I've always been Catholic, but it truly hasn't been real in my life,'' Ms. Smith said as 50 people began a Mass after Ms. Schiavo's death.
Asked what about the scene affected her, Ms. Smith wiped away tears and said: ''Just how perfect it is, how together everyone is. It just makes it so much more real.''
Others described a more practical transformation. Ed Emerson, a hospice patient who said he had a room opposite Ms. Schiavo's until about a month ago, came out in a motorized wheelchair late in the morning. Mr. Emerson, 71, who has been at the hospice about two months after suffering a stroke and heart and respiratory problems, said, ''I'm glad it's over, to get back to normal, hopefully, whatever that is.''
