THE FACTS: Andre Iguodala scored on a driving layup with 2.8 seconds left and the Denver Nuggets rallied to beat the Dallas Mavericks 95-94 on Thursday for their 19th straight home win.
It was a costly win for the Nuggets after forward Danilo Gallinari was hurt on a drive to the basket with 4:27 left in the first half. Gallinari's left knee buckled as he dribbled into the lane and he fell to the floor. He was helped off by teammates Quincy Miller and Timofey Mozgov.
He is scheduled for an MRI on Friday.
Denver moved a half game ahead of Memphis and two games ahead of the Los Angeles Clippers for third in the Western Conference.
Corey Brewer scored 23 points and Andre Miller had a season-high 22 for Denver, which is 35-7 since Jan. 1.
Brandan Wright led the Mavericks with 16 points. Dallas fell 3.5 games back of the Lakers for the eighth and final seed in the Western Conference.
QUOTABLE: "I can't deny, it didn't look good. I usually look at the player's face. He was scared. But I've had ones look bad and [the MRI] turned out to be OK. Nene went down a couple of years ago and it was just a sprain."
-- Nuggets coach George Karl on Gallinari's injury
THE STAT: The Nuggets hit just 19-for-30 free throws but they got to the line more than Dallas. The Mavericks attempted just 10 foul shots.
TURNING POINT: With the Nuggets down one with 10.8 seconds left, Kenneth Faried missed two free throws, but Brewer snuck in and got the offensive rebound. Denver called a timeout and set up the final play. Iguodala drove through traffic and put in the winning shot.
TURNING POINT II: Brewer was shrewd and calculating when he came from the side to block Anthony Morrow's 23-footer at the buzzer to preserve the win.
QUOTABLE II: "I knew he was going to go hard right. Once he went hard right I knew he was going to shoot it because there were only 2.8 seconds. I knew I could block it. I didn't want to go at him so I came from the side."
-- Corey Brewer on the game-saving block
HOT: Miller showed age isn't a factor on a back-to-back. The 37-year-old veteran had a big game scoring 13 of his points in the second half to help Denver improve to 34-3 at home, the best home record in the NBA.
NOT: Gallinari's injury. With the Nuggets playing well despite losing Ty Lawson for a few weeks they can hardly afford losing their other leading scorer. But it looks like they could be heading into the playoffs without one or both.
QUOTABLE III: "It's tough when you have two of your main scorers out in Ty and Gallo. Hopefully nothing is torn. We found a way to pull that game out and that's what you need at this point of the season."
-- Andre Miller
GOOD MOVE: The Nuggets made Dirk Nowitzki a non-factor in the game. He attempted just 10 shots, four in the second half, and scored 13 points. Denver's defense forced Nowitzki to give up the ball, and it forced him into a key turnover with 20 seconds left that led to the Nuggets' winning play.
BAD MOVE: The Mavericks were sharing the ball and keeping it moving in the third quarter but got stagnant in the fourth.
QUOTABLE IV: "We started making the extra pass, the ball wasn't sticking. That's when we got that run and got the lead. When we stopped doing that they got the lead. It went from sugar to [garbage] that quick. When we share the ball we're one of the best teams in the league."
-- Dallas forward Shawn Marion
ROOKIE WATCH: Nuggets rookie Evan Fournier scored just three points after pouring in a combined 37 his past two games but he played solid in 19 minutes. He might be called upon even more if Gallinari's injury is serious.
NOTABLE: The last time Denver won 19 straight at home was Jan 28-April 20, 1989 when Doug Moe was the coach. The club record is 20 set four years earlier. ... Faried finished with 12 points and 19 rebounds. ... Wright had six rebounds to go with his 16 points. It's the second time in three games he's reached those numbers.
UP NEXT: For the Mavericks, Friday @ Sacramento, Sunday @ Portland, Wednesday vs. Phoenix. For the Nuggets, Saturday vs. Houston, Wednesday vs. San Antonio, Friday, April 12 @ Dallas.

More affordable housing sought for regional uni students
The South West Local Learning and Employment Network says more affordable accommodation in Melbourne is needed for university students from country Victoria.
A University of Melbourne study has found students from rural and regional Victoria defer university offers at twice the rate of those from the city.
Forty per cent of the students who defer never take up their place in the university course.
The network's chief executive, Toni Jenkins, says being able to find affordable accommodation is essential for regional students.
"Suitable, affordable, accessible accommodation because the study shows that if people can get to their course of choice and stay for the first 12 months, they're much more likely than metropolitan people to complete that course and they'll do well," she said.

MANCHESTER, N.H. (CBS) – One New Hampshire Boy Scout may not be able to vote, but he knows who he's supporting this November.
"I have to say, anybody but Obama," said Richard Senneville of Manchester, New Hampshire.
WBZ NewsRadio 1030's Joe Mathieu sat down with Richard, a seventh grader who was walking around the Radisson Hotel in his Boy Scout uniform, after the primary results rolled in Tuesday night.
Listen to Joe's interview:
Richard was at the hotel working on a school project on all of the primary candidates. He came up with the idea for the project after attending a Rick Santorum town hall event with his mom last Friday.
"It was a cool feeling out there talking to everybody, all the media and stuff like that," said Richard. "And I really liked it, so I asked my mom if we could do it again with all of the other candidates."
Politically, Richard said he has independent views, but tends to lean to the right.
Regardless of a person's views, though, Richard feels it's important to pay close attention to politics.
"I believe everybody should be interested in politics. It's an important thing, as I said. It's your right and duty as a citizen of the United States in order to vote and hold a place in your government, so you might as well exercise that right," said Richard.

A GROUP of Barry Island RNLI lifeguards had a break from their normal office routine when TV personality John Barrowman dropped in on Sunday, July 6.
The Whitmore Bay crew - RNLI lifeguards Robbie Thompson, Rhys Phillips, Rhys Parry and Ashley Lewis were providing safety cover on the beach when they were approached by all-round entertainer John who was visiting the area.
RNLI lifeguard Robbie Thompson said: "As RNLI lifeguards we get the chance to meet people from across the country as part of our work offering safety advice and assistance on the beaches - but we didn't expect to meet John Barrowman during our safety cover on Barry Island yesterday afternoon! He approached us at the lifeguard unit and kindly agreed when we asked for a photo – he was a really nice guy."
RNLI lifeguards provide a daily safety service on Whitmore Bay from 10am to 6pm throughout the summer season.

Reducing your property tax bill
If you own any real estate in the state of Georgia, you've got a property tax bill coming your way.
It's going to happen, sometime this year, probably around the first week in June. And when it happens, you'll probably wish you had done something ahead of time to make the amount of that tax bill tax smaller.
Real estate expert John Adams stops by Good Day Atlanta with more.
What do we need to know?
In Georgia, our property tax is an AD VALOREM tax, meaning each owner pays his fair share based on the appraised value of that property on January 1.
Your local tax assessor is responsible for determining that value. Typically, a valuation does not happen every year, and because of the recent decline of housing prices, a review of value may save you hundreds, maybe even thousands of dollars.
However, it is YOUR responsibility to take control of the process for 2015.
What's next?
There is absolutely no relationship whatsoever between the assessed value for property tax purposes and the real market value of the property. While all of us want our homes to be worth as much as possible, you needn't worry that a low assessment will hurt your selling price should you later decide to sell.
Beginning on January 1, 2015, every owner has the opportunity to file a TAXPAYERS RETURN of PROPERTY with the Tax Assessor of the county where the property is located. This form simply notifies the assessor of your opinion of the value of the property in question on January 1, 2015. The form is known as "Georgia PT-50R" and can be found on my website at Money99.com. It should only take about ten minutes to fill out.
How do we come up with a value to submit?
Your estimate of value should be based on sales of comparable homes which occurred during the twelve month period between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014. If possible, find at least three sales which are a) similar in age, style, and size to yours; b) have the same bedroom and bathroom count; and c) are located within a mile of your home. Local real estate agents can help you locate these sales
Make sure your estimate of value for 2015 is lower than the assessed value assigned for last year. Because this is simply your estimate of value, you don't have to be able to back it up with data. Filing the form simply tells the county you want them to re-examine their estimate of value before they propose a valuation for 2015 later this year.
What do I do with this form?
Your completed Georgia Form PT-50R should be mailed or hand delivered to the local Board of Tax Assessors by April 1, 2015. And the sooner you do it, the better your odds of gaining the attention of a real person at the assessor's office. Every day that passes between now and April 1 will mark an exponential increase in demands on their time. Eventually they will simply be unable to respond to review requests.
For your best chance of success, my advice is to file your return during the month of January.
Some counties, like Gwinnett, allow you to file your FORM online. However, the safest method of filing is to hand it to the assessor and get a receipt. Submitting that paperwork tells the county you want them to review 2014 sales data before they calculate a proposed valuation for 2015.
We'll examine each of these steps in more detail as we move into the new year, but the bottom line is this: you can save significant sums of money by making sure the county is not overcharging you for your property taxes.

The Nationals have added another left-handed reliever to their organization, claiming Xavier Cedeno off waivers from the Astros and optioning him to Triple-A Syracuse.
Cedeno, 26, posted an 11.37 ERA over five appearances spanning 6 1/3 innings with Houston this season.
He allowed 10 hits and 11 runs (eight earned) with seven walks, three strikeouts and hit two batters.
Last season, Cedeno's numbers were far better. He worked in 44 games with the Astros, putting up a 3.77 ERA over 31 innings. Cedeno allowed 30 hits, walked 14 and struck out 36.
He'll now join fellow Puerto Rican J.C. Romero at Syracuse. Both left-handed relievers were a part of Puerto Rico's bullpen in the World Baseball Classic.
Romero, for what it's worth, has appeared in seven games with Syracuse so far this season, allowing six hits and one unearned run. He's walked none and struck out eight.
The Nationals will run out the same eight position players tonight that we saw last night against the Cardinals.
Anthony Rendon will get his third straight start at third base, hitting sixth.
The Nats will face Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright, who is off to a strong start to 2013. The right-hander has gone 3-1 with a 2.48 ERA through his first four starts.
Ross Detwiler will get to face his hometown team yet again tonight. Detwiler's last regular season start of 2012 was in St. Louis, and it didn't go too well, as the lefty went just 2 1/3 innings, allowing seven runs (three earned) on four hits with five walks.
He responded by shutting the Cardinals down in Game 4 of the National League Division Series, however, allowing just one unearned run over six sparkling innings in a must-win game for the Nats.
Detwiler has been the Nats' most consistent and effective starter this season, putting up a 0.90 ERA with an 11-to-3 strikeout-to-walk ratio through three outings.

Blown Bluesbreaker
Hi. Having a problem with a Marshall reissue JTM45 Bluesbreaker combo.
What I am getting is very very little signal until volume '8' and then a buzzing harsh distortion with an almost ring modulator type quality. The volume is not all that loud. No other abnormal humming, rustling or buzzing.
I've noticed that the 2nd and 3rd preamp tubes hum loudly if place my hand near the glass, and #2 with buzz loudly if I grab the glass.
Seems like the voltages from the PS are right, so I don't know about my original idea of filter cap failure. Maybe trans or choke? Speakers are ok.
I would like to isolate the pre to see if it is there or in the power amp, but not sure how.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Gabe - to test power amp section by itself, disconnect the wire from the treble pot wiper and use that as the input - make sure the DC blocking cap C10 remains in place.
Does tremlo intensity knob position change the described behaviour at all?
Thanks, Ian. I'll look into isolating the power amp right now.
Trem only does what it does to signal, no change for the better.
Power section ok. Must be in the pre.
Just remembered-when amp failed, I found that the vibrato tube was d.e.a.d. I don't know if this was concurrent with my problem though, as I have not had the vibrato connected for a long time.
Is it the same for both CH1 and CH2 - if so points to V2 circuitry.
else its in V1 circuitry.
Don't forget simple stuff which could cause this sort of behaviour like a volume pot which is open circuit somwhere along its input to output track such that the wiper position has to be turned up far enough to bypass the track break. I've seen this happen before.
Thanks Ian. You pointed me in the right direction. It was the 100k resistor across V2.

Come join me this weekend at the 4th Annual Silicon Valley Code Camp. It will be held Saturday and Sunday at Foothill College in Los Altos Hills. There are 147 sessions scheduled, with over 1,500 registered so far. Register here.
The Code Camp consists of these points:
- by and for the developer community
- always free
- community developed material
- no fluff – only code
- never occur during working hours
Sessions will range from informal "chalk talks" to presentations. There will be a mix of presenters, some experienced folks, for some it may be their first opportunity to speak in public. And we are expecting to see people from throughout the Northern California region and beyond.
I will be hosting 2 sessions:
Windows 7 for Developers
Saturday, 11:00 am – Room 4301
Windows 7 is almost here! With it are numerous improvements and new features to take advantage of in your applications. Watch and learn as we demonstrate how to utilize the new taskbar, multi-touch support, search, libraries, and more.
IE8 for Developers
Sunday, 9:15 am – Room 5501
IE8 makes your web better… faster, safer and easier. This is true for developers too. In this session, we will illustrate how developers can take advantage of some new technologies in IE8 such as accelerators to enhance a user's web experience. We will also illustrate the built-in developer tools in IE8 and how to take advantage of them. These tools include a powerful CSS tool, script debugging and a script profiler.
I hope to see you there!

Olio Zito Branding
Olio Zito is a newly launched boutique olive oil label, grown and produced on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. I was approached by the Zito family to develop a branding package to help them take their new venture to market. The brief was relatively open, so I set about creating an identity that reflected their traditional Italian heritage, whilst distinguishing itself from other olive oil brands as a fresh, pure and sophisticated product.
The final brand suite consisted of a logotype and marque, a bottle label, stationary kit and website.
Thank You!

My local JoAnns didn't carry Lazy Girl Patterns (it's a really small one) and I'm too lazy to drive the hour + to the Superstore that does – so I emailed the JoAnn's website, suggested the local store start to carry Lazy girl patterns and much to my surprise, they did so and now they can't keep them stocked!!!!!! Lucky me – lucky town!
I'm so lazy I made a Miranda bag for each of my 3 daughters, but never made one for myself.
I'm so lazy that I won't make myself hot tea even though I love it.

Review for Helping Out Pets Everyday, Upland, CA, USA
HOPE is the best animal rescue group there is around. They truly care for their animals and their constant attention to their needs shows. They work with people to find the perfect match for them, not just the dog or cat that looks cute. I have been voulenteering with HOPE for almost four years now and can honestly say they are simply the best and everything they do is for the animals.

Police search home of Miley Cyrus 'stalker'
Police searched the Georgia home of a 53-year-old man accused of attempted to stalk Miley Cyrus during the filming of the teenager's new movie.
Captain Steve Morris of the Columbia County Sheriff's Department did not say what investigators were looking for last night at the Appling home of Mark McLeod, who told police he was secretly engaged to marry the 16-year-old Hannah Montana star. The search warrant was sealed by a judge.
McLeod told a Tybee Island police officer who arrested him in June that he had "thousands of pictures and letters to Miley on his computer," according to a police report.
McLeod was arrested on Tuesday for attempted stalking, a misdemeanour, after security guards for Walt Disney Pictures reported that he had returned to the filming location on Tybee Island, asking where he could find Cyrus.
Police say McLeod had been warned to stay away from the island, east of Savannah, after he was charged on June 22 with disorderly conduct and obstruction of a police officer for trying to cross a security perimeter at the movie set.
McLeod told police he wanted to see Cyrus, claiming she was his fiancee and sent him secret messages through her TV show.
Tybee Island police chief Jim Price would not comment on the search of McLeod's home, 180 miles from where Cyrus is filming the movie The Last Song.
McLeod is in custody in Chatham County.

According to them I can run XP on a computer with 256MB of RAM. Unless you like waiting a lot, it ain't true.

What the TSA has done to this country is so messed up on so many levels.

Hi all,
My husband and I will be spending two nights in Paris on the way back from Rome in September. Would love to have a couple dinners at the newer bistronomie or cuisine d'auteur-type restaurants. Was originally thinking Frenchie, but it sounds like, at this point at least, it may not be quite up to the hype.
My thoughts now are toward Septime and Chatomat, with Roseval and Pirouette as backups. From reading comments here and on Lefooding.com, it sounds like those are good choices, but would love your thoughts.
Would they be too similar? Other places I should consider instead? And how far in advance should I plan to make reservations?
Thanks in advance!

Korean cooking forum topics

This topic contains 3 replies, has 3 voices, and was last updated by Brian_Montoya 7 years, 7 months ago.
I would like to request a recipe for Bossam Kimchi,I'm DYING to try it and I have a recipe for it from a cookbook by Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee, but im scared to try it because it is a fairly complex recipe with fairly expensive ingredients, and the recipe is a little brief. Thanks!
Hi, Brian,
As long as you have the cookbook, follow the recipe please. I think it will turn out good. Cecilia Hae-Jin's cook book is popular.
Thank you for the request though. The kimchi was requested by other readers, too. https://www.maangchi.com/talk/topic/bossam-kimchi
Let us know how it turned out since this dish intrigues me as well!
Ok but ill think i will wait until octopus is in season, otherwise it will cost me an arm and a leg for good seafood in colorado. :)
Thanks Maangchi!

Black Isle - Crowdfunding Campaign Launched
The resurrected Black Isle Studios has launched their own crowdfunding campaign via blackisle.com to fund a protoype for Project V13. The campaign itself uses a humorous Mayan Apocalypse device and features Interplay vets Chris Taylor, (artist) Chip Bumgardner and (writer) Mark O'Green.
The actual project uses the same codename as the planned Fallout MMO but is now a strategy/RPG with base-building - possibly they'll use some of the assets from the original V13 in this revised concept?
Project V13 (PV13) is the first planned Black Isle Studios release in years, a post-apocalyptic strategy RPG. You will create a character to represent yourself within the game world. Your character will be a hardy adventurer from a variety of backgrounds; one of the last remaining humans, a new breed mutant, or a technologically advanced cyborg. The choice is yours.
Once you have determined your character's background, you will found your "colony". From a deserted city, a broken down military base, or even the ruins of an oil pumping station, the colony will be yours to rebuild and control. Attract non-player characters for guards, peons, scientists, and other activities. Or, if you are the type that so desires, shanghai the NPCs. Put them to work rebuilding your society and improving your colony.
Meanwhile, you will experience grand adventures to gather the resources and ancient technologies as well as fight back the enemy hordes. Your character will gain experience, advance skills, learn new talents and gain access to incredibly powerful equipment. Or die trying.
Explore the world, meet friends, and fight your neighbors for control of resources. PV13 will be your chance to rebuild a devastated world.
It's important to understand these funds are to build a prototype, not a complete game:
The prototype will be a "proof of concept". It won't have the entire world or a finished game. We've got some great ideas, but they haven't been tested in the crucible of actual play. We need time and money. [...]
We can then use this prototype to raise the additional funds necessary to complete the game.
You also don't get a copy of the finished game in any reward tier - the primary reward is access to a forum to discuss the game. For example:
$10+ contributions will receive:
•Access to a special Black Isle forum. You can read about the ongoing fight to save the world. (And PV13.)
•A copper BIMAR forum badge.
•A Certificate of Recognition at the end of 30 days.
$20+ contributions will receive:
•Access to the private forum as well as posting privileges.
•A silver BIMAR forum badge.
•A Certificate of Merit at the end of 30 days.
In essence, this is a donation to Interplay. From their FAQ:
For purposes of clarity and the avoidance of doubt, in consideration of Interplay's good faith efforts to develop, produce, and launch the forum with the funds raised, You agree that any deposit amounts applied against the Game Cost as described above shall be non-refundable regardless of whether or not Interplay is able to launch the forum, complete the prototype, or complete and deliver the Game. In the unlikely event that Interplay cannot deliver the forum or prototype, Interplay will post an audited cost accounting on its website to fully explain the use of the deposits for the Game Cost. In consideration of these and other promises by Interplay hereunder and herein, You agree to irrevocably waive any claim for refund of any deposit amount that has been used for the Game Cost in accordance with the above.
Finally, there is no goal or progress display.
Caveat emptor.

Greg's Place closing, Terrasini Grille openingBy MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
July 30. 2014 8:25PM
MANCHESTER — Geneva Morse will need to find a new place for good coffee and free advice because Greg's Place across from Verizon Wireless Arena will be closing after 30 years of serving up its two-eggs, any-style breakfast special.
Restaurant owner JeanMarie Sallah said she is calling it quits in about a month after working there the past 22 years.
"Basically, I've run my course. I'm ready for a break," Sallah, 52 said Wednesday. "After 22 years, it's hard on your body. It's hard on your mind."Morse said she's been coming for breakfast a few times a week over the past 11 years and stops in most days for coffee. She will miss Sallah.
"What I like about this place is she always gives very good customer service," she said. "If I needed to vent, she's always there to give me advice and help me out."
But another branch of the family tree plans to open a new eatery, Terrasini Grille, in the same space.
"It's an American casual restaurant with an Italian influence," said Domenic Ciolino, who soon plans to be co-owner. "I don't want full Italian because there's already enough Italian restaurants."
Pasta and pork chops will share the menu.Ciolino is a cousin of the "Greg" in Greg's place. Greg Sallah started the business in 1984. He and his wife, JeanMarie, co-owned the restaurant from 1992 until 2008, when she took over sole ownership.
Their son, Brandon Sallah, the restaurant's kitchen manager, will stay on to work in Ciolino's restaurant.
"I started washing dishes when I was 6 for french fries," the 26-year-old said.
Ciolino, who lives in Manchester, plans to bring a little Sicilian cooking he learned from his late grandmother in Gloucester, Mass.
He plans to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and a Sunday brunch. Dinner entrees will cost between $10 and $20. The space also will include a bakery.
But first, customers at Greg's Place can take advantage of the "grand closing celebration" during August by choosing a free appetizer or dessert or 10 percent of their dinner.
The restaurant's rented location at 641 Elm St. allowed it to take advantage of events at Verizon Wireless Arena. It sold $3 beer drafts and hand-cut fries.
"During hockey season, that's the majority of our business," Brandon Sallah said. "We sell something like 200 pounds of french fries, and that's in a matter of hours."
Ciolino said he wants to capture some of the arena crowd, offering a simpler menu on event nights but said he is trying to get away from "a mentality of people coming in just for the bar."
He plans to add a wooden floor and booths to the restaurant.
The new place will open at 6 a.m. for breakfast with the dining room remaining open until 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights and 9 p.m. on other days. Closing hours could vary depending on arena events.
During her 22-year restaurant reign, JeanMarie Sallah said the city has "changed for the better." She said there are a lot more businesses downtown and joked there are five or six restaurants or bars on every corner.
When the restaurant opened, the two-eggs, any-style special with home fries and toast costs 99 cents. Today, it runs $2.99.
"Still the cheapest place in town to do breakfast," Brandon Sallah said.


text: Cape Town - Parliament's mineral resources portfolio committee chairperson Fred Gona has shut down any talk of ringfencing the royalties paid by mining houses for spending on mining communities.Speaking during a meeting between MPs and mining houses on Wednesday about the situation in the platinum mining sector, Gona tried to gauge the industry's take on the possible adjustment of the mining royalty tax."Given the fact, established by the committee, that we are not sharing enough when it comes to the mineral wealth in this country... are you in principle in favour of engaging on the need for royalties to be amended?" Gona asked.Chamber of Mines (CoM) economist Roger Baxter said he would not defend the status quo, but was looking forward to "an equitable sharing of the rents"."We speak a lot about sharing, but don't often speak about creating and I think this is the bigger conversation. We need to talk about creating the value."CoM senior executive Vusi Mabena said the outcry from mining communities was that they were not benefiting enough from the taxes collected in the industry."The challenge that the country has, in my view, is that we take that money and put it into the fiscus kitty, and it gets absorbed into all the challenges that the country is having," he said.In 2011, the industry paid R28.5bn in tax directly, and R5.5bn in royalties."Is the debate not what are we going to do with the royalties... to change the negative impression to a positive impression that the money that is coming from the mining sector is indeed being used to benefit some of the communities who are crying out there for royalties?" asked Mabena.Gona replied that the country's mineral wealth was the national heritage of all South Africans, not just mining communities."Once we begin to talk about ringfencing the money generated from the mining industry for the mining industry, then we are missing the point," said Gona.He accused the mining industry of using its profits in a skewed manner."There's been no ploughing back of the mining industry into the development of the country per se, especially when it comes to social responsibility," he said.A review of the tax system, including a possible amendment of mining royalties, was announced by President Jacob Zuma during his state of the nation address last week.

We have landed!Author: Neil Kay-Jones, Online Support & User Experience Manager
We have been in San Francisco now for one day and today is the big day at Macworld. We have just walked past the all new Mac Book Air product display from Apple and it is like a wafer thin aerodynamic space pod. My hands are now sweaty and wanting to touch but Anish has slid off to take a sneaky peek so i am stuck on the booth.
There is like a low rumble in the air, with anticipation building and some of the stands here are just out of this world. The whole of San Francisco seems to have a surreal Mac identity as every second person is sporting white headphones and.
Anyway the people are flooding in at the gates and Yuuguu is now on trial so i will blog later on today live from MacWorld hopefully with some pics.

Morgan REVIEWS
Good movie - worth watching
After reading many of the reviews (good and bad), I have decided that until IMDb offers the service to select favourite reviewers, that this will be the last review I write. I do this because there are reviewers who wouldn't know a phone was up their rear end, even if it rang. But I retire mainly because there are reviewers who just don't have my ...
A swing and a miss
The advertisements MORGAN ended with the question "What is Morgan"?. After seeing this film, my answer is "I don't care"!. MORGAN is the story of what happens when man tries to create artificial life. Much like the superior EX MACHINA, it grapples with issues of whether Morgan is a person, or a thing and should man do this. Unfortunately, it grapp...
Had the right ideas but lacked the right amount of spark
Before anyone reads this, I am glad to read that some movie goers found the movie great. However, this is just my personal take when I saw this film.. Without going into too much detail about what this film entails, I felt as though there were a few moments in the film which could have been better.. 1/ The ending was slightly disappointing... and ...
If you liked "Cube" or "Event Horizon," you'll like MORGAN
The film MORGAN is one that you'd file under decent attempt. Directed by Ridley's son, Luke Scott, you wonder if the apple doesn't fall far from the tree or the talent gets passed down trough genes, well, don't expect MORGAN to be on the same level as Ridley's "Alien," that's for sure, but again, a decent attempt is what it is, the closest to a co...
An Entertaining Movie, Though It Feels Very Familiar
Morgan is about a risk management consultant having to decide whether or not the current artificial intelligence project should continue or be terminated. Lee Weathers shadows the scientists to see how they work with Morgan and her responses in preparation for the real psychic-evaluation the next day.. I felt the story to be compelling with some m...
Morgan is a bad cliff notes version of Ex Machina and Splice.
One sub genre of science fiction we don't see enough of is the mad scientist-story. This is where people attempt to play God and bring something into the world that nature had never intended to. While sometimes the experiments are done with dark intentions, many of the stories feature such scientists as naïve and only trying to improve life. The ...
Good movie but misses out on potential
Morgan starts with a simple premise of the moral and ethical implications of genetically crafting a biological being from scratch. Even if such a being looks and acts human, is it? Is the being a "she" or an "it"and does the being have rights or autonomy, or can it be owned like a pet, or an iPhone? . Based on nothing more than the trailers, the...
I cannot recall a movie to go downhill as badly as this.
OK, there are very heavy spoilers in this, because to talk about the film properly, that's what has to happen.. I was really excited for this movie because of both the premise sounding like there could be a load of cool concepts within it, and the cast. Ridley Scott's involvement did have me concerned - I unfortunately have only really had bad exp...
Waste of a good idea
The idea was great and the casting seemed to be a success with names like Paul Giamatti, Rose Leslie and Kate Mara . But the story.. Oh boy. You could guess every single turn of the movie and the ending was so obvious. The idea and the psychological side of characters would have got so much more to give, but that all was ruined with the thin plot....
i really enjoyed it.
Having run across the film Morgan (2016) I certainly had an interest in it. This style is kind of a genre/movie vibe that I tend to enjoy. Morgan (2016) didn't seem to have the marketing reach, nor a really big cast, but for what they used to put this film together I feel they done a really nice job.. This is a film for fans who enjoy stories like...

NEW FLASH: Mountain State University is under a show cause order as to why the school should not close. The President, Charles Polk, was listed as among the 10 highest paid Presidents of a private school at
$1.8 million. He was forced to resign January 20, 2012, because of his lack of leadership over the past four years while the school struggled unsuccessfully to maintain nursing accreditation. He spent money on a home in Lake Norman and a private place while the North Central Accreditors, Higher Learning Commission, and CCNE (Nursing) was all in jeopardy. Polk was forced out for malfeasance and his best friend, Bill White, is running the faux campus in Mooresville. Don't take a change on this school. Go to the Register Hearald in Beckley, WVA and the Charleston Gazette to read about this scandal. Don't let these people pick your pocket or use your financial aid for themselves.

He used financial aid money to pay his family and to buy two private planes. POLK is a crook. MSU is already involved with Penn Foster and Graduate School USA, both organizations run by Polk's ex-board member friend, Jerry ICE. These people are not interested in YOU as a successful student but instead just want your money. Their online programs are at a junior high level and the books, tests, and other materials often do not match. MSU has a graduation rate of 5% for students attending four-five years. The majority of students transfer out within the first two years although it is not unusual for them not to be able to transfer many credits because of the reputation as a diploma mill in West Virginia. Polk had to resign 21 years from Daytona Community College in Florida because of shady dealings with a local developer.
BE WARNED, this school will pillage your community and never look back. Don't let your local officials make deals with Mountain State University without a thorough investigation of their currect accreditation status at all levels and until they are audited by an outside firm. Nursing students in Beckley have filed suit against the school

Read the Charleston Gazette for January 19, 2012. The title is Polk fired as Mountain State University president. His good friend and comrade in crime is Bill White who currently the leader at the faux Mooresville campus. Ask Mayor Bill Thunberg if he did any research on MSU and Polk before he signed a Memorandum of Understanding or is he, like the mayor in Beckley, all too happy to sacrifice his own constituency for a ride to Disneyworld in Florida.
This university is at the point of ruin thanks to Polk and White. And, if Polk comes knocking at your door, ask him what kind of leader gets fired twice in his career in 25 years in order for accreditors to reconsider their show cause orders and for a school to move forward. He was fired at Daytona Community College 22 years ago and he fired again. And he and White think the same way, just look who thought they could write a book together on leadership! Apex Thinking is now known as Apex Shrinking in West Virginia.

Beware of MSU. To add to the above, the general education courses are scrutinized for their lack of rigor.
In traditional educational settings the faculty in their respective fields of study determine these requirements. This is not the case at MSU. The executives at MSU determine these decisions. Not the faculty. Hence why the curriculum is so poor. This practice is largely seen in the for-profit schools. MSU operates as a for-profit and hides under the tax shelter of non-profit.
There is much turmoil at MSU. The nursing program is not the only program having serious issues. Several programs have already been closed due to accreditation problems. Let this serve as a red flag the school is unstable. Visit Beckley Topix to learn more of what it going on.

Mountain State University is a terrible school with many problems. Warn everyone!
Check the Beckley WV topics for many thread on MSU.
Tell everyone..........this is important.
#6 Feb 27, 2012
Don't let your local officials sell out your community for quick profits but long-time problems. Stay away from Mountain State University. Bill White is as corrupt as Charles Polk and BOTH are residing in your community! There are too many good schools and YOU DON'T need to get involved with MSU and its problems.
#7 Apr 4, 2012
Please read articles in the Charleston Gazette in Charleston, WVA, before you spend any money on Mountain State University. There is a campus in your town. The fired Charles Polk is a retiree in your area and his good friend, Bill White, is running the Lake Norman area campus.

Want to read the Higher Learning Commission show-cause order? Go to their website ncahlc.org and put in Mountain State University. Effective 6/23/11 Where were Polk and White when this was happening? Promoting their MSU book on leadership!
Latest Possible Scandal: Two of Polk's buddies, Ms. May and Mr. Bragg are being awarded their `Doctor of Leadership' degrees. Program has been in place less than two years, school can't find enough Ph.D.s to teach nursing courses, but these folks are graduating? This is indicative of MSU. Who cares about the students when it is possible to award degrees to yourselves and family members? The Doctor of Leadership degree is an affront to all the good people who have found themselves in unaccredited programs. Oh, Ms. May was a secretary for Polk and promoted to Vice President of Accreditation! Lots of shame to go around for them all. DON'T GET INVOLVED.
Still not convinced? Go to New York Times nytimes.com and look for the December 2011 article on the highest paid college presidents in the U.S. Check out what they have to say about Charles Polk at MSU. Why would you want to contribute to a school with no priorities for students?

Sports programs being gutted. Mayor Pugh in Beckley under suspicion for his association with Polk and their service together on MSU Foundation Board. Kelli Mays fired after meeting with accreditors in Chicago.
Distance learning programs and School of Leadership are raising questions about integrity and quality of MSU, the Board of Trustees, Senior administrators, former lawyers for MSU, and family members of Polk and Silosky.
How come Polk (Fired), White (runs Mooresville campus) and Silosky (Retiring) are able to live so comfortably while so many former students struggle? Does it bother you guys that you have students who will be paying for financial aid over the next 20 years so YOU can live well? With a 5% graduation rate, there are a lot of them.
#9 May 31, 2012
Looks like MSU has fired every one but the few remaining Polk loyalists, R. Artis, R. Wiley, B. White. Bill White is the crook living in Mooresville along with the now disgraced Charles Polk. Jim Silosky has a home in Mooresville, too. He'll tell you he retired but that is only because he KNEW he was going to be fired.
Don't let these people blend among you as they are the equivalent of `con artists' trying to sell you inferior merchandise (programs that can't get accredited). Polk and White spent the 2010-2011 years promoting their crumby book while using bottomless expense accounts. Like Nero playing the fiddle while Rome burned!
#10 Jun 1, 2012
Thank you for telling us about this.
#11 Jun 10, 2012
Article from April 2012 referring to MSU as school that enrolled `any one with a pulse' and says that people should be prosecuted for their scamming of the Beckley community and the financial aid packages from the federal government. Don't forget: MSU has a `branch' campus in Mooresville. They are under a show cause order AND the people who ran the scam, Charles Polk, James Silosky, and Bill White are all retired or still working for MSU in your community. BEWARE!
So many people are going bankrupt thanks to the Ponzi scheme these men were running on Beckley. Students with worthless degrees, money owed on financial aid by people who have no chance of a job, faculty maliciously fired, former employees going bankrupt. So much pain to the Beckley community and these men think they left it all behind. Don't get involved with them. Even the Mayor of Beckley is now under investigation over MSU! Ask YOUR mayor how well he checked out Polk before making deals with him.
#12 Jun 28, 2012
Don't forget to look at the Charleston Gazette for the latest news:
6/27/12 Article by Amy Julia Harris, "MSU Bonds could down grade to junk status." Turns out POLK, WHITE, SILOSKY and pals put the school in debt to the City of Beckley and the Raleigh County Building Commission for $6.5 MILLION in bonds to build a 200-bed dormitory on campus with a private builder. Don't forget the $11 million Polk spent on the Martinsburg Mall (rumored to have been a place to put his son Anthony in charge).
Time for the community of Mooresville to determine if any of this kind of `problem' can develop in the MSU campus you have in Lake Norman area. These men all live here with you now. Did they make any kind of deals that will come out later and hurt local officials? The mayor of Beckley is in real trouble over his association with Polk and White and Silosky.
Over 100 people have lost their jobs, students are in debt for useless degrees of no real value (think of Charles K. Polk School of Leadership `Doctoral' Degrees! This is like having a dog grooming degree from...oh yeah, that's one of the certificates you can get from Jerry Ice's school, Chairman of the Board of MSU).
Charles Polk made a statement in an article in the Mooresville newspaper that he considered your community to be his real home (also see Charleston Gazette, Jan 5, 2012, "MSU President is frequent flier at School's expense" by Amy Julia Harris for that quote). Good luck with that, he used to refer to his employees as his `family.'
#13 Jul 10, 2012
Time to review this website:
MSU Accreditation has been withdrawn. MSU has until July 23 to appeal but Charles Polk (forced out) and Bill White (runs MSU in Mooresville) have put the school in such dire straits that no one expects the school to survive. If you are a current student at MSU, re-think your plans for the future.
These men should be criminally prosecuted for the damage they have done to the university. That Bill White is still employed is a demonstration of the ability of the school to handle change. Time to close the `campuses' in NC, PA, and FL.

Lawsuit accuses Polk, MSU of racketeering
By Amy Julia Harris
CHARLESTON, W.Va.-- A new lawsuit accuses Mountain State University and former MSU President Charles Polk of breaking federal law by engaging in a widespread criminal enterprise of racketeering activity to defraud students and pad the school's bank account.
The lawsuit, filed Friday in Jefferson County Circuit Court on behalf of 14 former MSU nursing students, alleges that Polk and the university engaged in a criminal racketeering scheme over the past decade to exploit students through mail and wire fraud.
"These acts were not isolated events, but rather were part of an overall conspiracy and pattern of racketeering activity," the lawsuit states. The lawsuit also says Polk and MSU officials violated the West Virginia Consumer Credit Protection Act and committed fraud and breach of contract.
#18 Aug 8, 2012
wow. Polk will ruin your community if you give him a chance.
#19 Aug 16, 2012
First, Charles Polk was forced to resign 21 years ago from Daytona Community College in Florida over ethical violations. For the school to be re-accredited, Polk had to go. Unfortunately, he used West Virginia for his next `ethically and morally challenged' position as President of Mountain State University. History repeats itself. Again, Polk has had to leave a university due to his own management failings.
Go to the Charleston Gazette in West Virginia and search under "Mountain State University." Following articles should be read:
"Audit finds aid woes at MSU" July 12, 2012 Financial Aid issues started in 2005. Local MSU administrator in Morrisville, Dallas Bragg, was the financial aid manager during part of the last seven years of this audit. Don't let him tell your local newspaper lies about his participation.
"Feds keeping close eye on MSU financial aid" July 21, 2012 The West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission shows that MSU administrators had never paid dozens of students aid they were due, held onto monies beyond legal disbursement dates (to collect interest), and provided faulty paperwork to get students money they academically ineligible to receive.
"At MSU,`It was all about the revenue'" March 31, 2012, discusses the pressure senior administrators exerted in enrolling new students to the point of obtaining grants for mentally ill patients in the local clinic, homeless shelters, and recruiting foreign students for programs that did not exist. The joke at MSU, "If it breathes, it can attend MSU."
"Lawsuit accuses Polk, MSU of racketeering" August 6, 2012 says MSU is under investigation for mail fraud in a crminal racketeering scheme over the past decade and that Polk and MSU officials "violated the WV Consumer Credit Protection Act and committed fraud and breach of contract." "MSU misled students both via email and in public advertisements."
"University of Charleston taking over Mountain State's campuses in Beckley and Martinsburg,' August 1 and "MSU to hold information sessions for students" August 6 are about the sale of the West Virginia campuses to UC and the requirements of the Higher Learning Commission to enable students to transfer. More bad news for students, only one university really interested in MSU students as others (WVU and Marshall) question the overall education MSU students have received.
Want something more light hearted to read? Try the July 25, 2012, article by Christine Miller Ford in the Spirit of Jefferson and Farmer's Advocate. Ms Ford examines the first book written by Charles Polk and Bill White, "Apex Thinking." Today known as "Apex Shrinking." This is the self published book these two men wrote and MSU press published. Polk tried to play himself as a `savior' of MSU but instead he played fast and loose with normal rules of management and used the coffers of MSU as his own so that while the school was dealing with the accreditation problems, Polk and White spent a year flying around the country in the MSU private plane on a publicity tour for their second book.
How does the sale affect MSU students in NC? Financial aid woes are part of their business model so make sure protect yourself and document everything with MSU. MSU has left Beckley in a scandal that has encompassed and torn apart their community. PROTECT YOURSELVES, GET YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER INVOLVED. In Beckley the mayor is under investigation for a $6 million Bond to MSU that may be under default. Can you be assured that your local officials are not involved with the campus in NC? And, money spent at your MSU `campus' and on administrator's residences at Lake Norman are being investigated as well.

Thank you for keeping us informed.

Charleston Gazette provides insight into the management style at MSU:
"Polk's `Apex Thinking' is Ethics in Reverse", Feb 15, 2012 by Robert Byers. This is the first book written by now deposed Polk and the top Administrator at the Mooresville campus, Bill White. Most UN-academic book ever written by people who have Ed.D.'s and was published only because it is self published by MSU Press.
"Law Kept Vets in Dark About MSU," July 25, 2012, Amy Julia Harris. Also, there is a Police Department in Texas that has filed a lawsuit over MSU's online programs. Veterans were getting worthless degrees at MSU like the MSSL (Master's in Strategic Leadership) which is known publically as Missile program.
Look at the credentials of MSU faculty and you will see that about 50% of them (including adjuncts) have MSSL degrees. Look at the people teaching in Mooresville: Roy E. Alston (graduate of Walden) has taught at the ridiculously named Charles Polk School of Leadership, Jimmy Atkins, also professor at CP School of Leadership and appears to have no academic degrees.
"Was Charles Polk a Machiavelli at MSU?" Feb 11, 2012, Amy Julia Harris. Remember, Bill White is involved in this book, too.
"Higher Ed Board Approves Private College Oversight," August 10, 2012, Amy Julia Harris. University of Charleston is involved with the West Va campuses but what about Mooresville?
"From Burning Bright to Flickering," August 14, 2012, Amy Julia Harris, provides information about MSU's implosion.
Bill White and Dallas Bragg in Mooresville MSU follow the management style Polk and White have made famous in Apex Thinking. It is a blueprint for the quickest way to pillage a local community and it involves local officials so ask questions of your mayor and Chamber of Commerce about their relationship with MSU. Make sure you have not been sold out for a ride on Polk's private plane.

Milpitas Fire Department responded to a residential structure fire at 226 Evening Star Court on Wednesday at about 11:40 a.m. Fire crews arrived on location at 11:44 a.m. and were confronted with flames and heavy smoke venting from the rear of a single-story duplex.
Firefighters attacked the flames on the interior of the home and quickly searched the building for any trapped occupants. Crews were able to confine the fire to the building of origin and kept the fire from spreading to an attached residence, reports state.
All occupants were safely evacuated along with two dogs that were released to their owners. However, the building was rendered uninhabitable by city building officials. American Red Cross was requested to assist with the displaced residents.
Two San Jose Fire Department engine companies also responded and provided mutual aid to the scene and assisted with salvage and overhaul operations as well as covering Milpitas Fire Station No. 1 for other calls for service, reports state.
The Milpitas Fire Marshal's Office is currently working to determine a cause of the fire.

Realtors say this is the best time in years to buy a new house, so we thought we'd pass on details about a little abode in the Georgetown area.
Its views of the Potomac are stunning! And if that doesn't tickle your fancy, maybe its five bedrooms and nine full bathrooms will.
What's the asking price, you ask? Well, you may want to sit down for that. Ready? It's going for $19.5 million.
Still interested?
The Halcyon House is now on the market, and it's the most expensive home you'll find on the District's real estate market, according to DCCondoLoft.com. Taxes alone will set you back more than $70,000 a year.
The house It was built more than 200 years ago, but it was restored recently. And if that $19.5 million price tag seems impressive, the house was originally listed for $30 million!

The staff of the Federal Trade Commission on September 22 filed a comment with the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN) about the regulations governing regulated electric utilities and their unregulated affiliated companies.
The FTC has a longstanding interest in regulation and competition in energy markets, including proposals to reform regulation of the natural gas and electric power industries.
In its comment to the Nevada officials, the staff of the Bureau of Economics focused on four areas that the state may wish to consider as it devises its plan to govern relationships and transactions between these entities. For example:
- The comment noted that there are fundamental trade-offs between preventing discriminatory behavior by the parent utility and preserving economies of vertical integration with its affiliate. The staff concluded that Nevada may wish to reevaluate the trade-offs after an interim period.
- The comment suggested that the PUCN may wish to add a "market-like" institution to govern transactions between parent utilities and their affiliates that would include an objective bidding process in which a third party evaluates the bids.
- The comment noted that the state may wish to compare the benefits and costs of allowing affiliates of regulated distribution firms to use the corporate logo of the distribution firm.
- The FTC staff also suggested that the PUCN may wish to consider extending its rules to affiliates offering goods or services other than electric or natural gas service.
The Commission vote to file the comment was 4-0.
NOTE: The comment represents the views of staff members of the FTC's Bureau of Economics and not necessarily the views of the Commission or any individual Commissioner.
Copies of the full text of the comment are available from the FTC's web site at http://www.ftc.gov and also from the FTC's Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 6th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580; 202-FTC-HELP (202- 382-4357); TDD for the hearing impaired 1-866-653-4261.

July 4, 5 a.m.-10 p.m. Free admission; food for purchase. (805) 995-1200, www.cayucoschamber.com.
