As Stephen Griffiths appeared in court charged with the murder of three women, police defended their investigation, saying they had had no reason to link the disappearances.
Officers in Bradford also said they had a "passionate commitment" to helping local sex workers deal with the addictions that often led to them working on the streets.
Police search teams, meanwhile, were continuing the hunt for the bodies of two of the women. The remains of the third were found in bags in a river north of the city. One group of officers could be seen searching drains opposite Griffiths' home that had been opened up with a mechanical digger.
The alleged connections between the cases of the three missing women became apparent only last Monday, more than 48 hours after the death of the last woman to go missing, Suzanne Blamires, 36. "Before that, we could only work on the basis of the evidence we had at the time," a West Yorkshire police source said.
There has been some criticism of police in the area where two of the women, Blamires and Shelley Armitage, 31, lived, with a number of residents complaining that officers were slow to respond to reports that they were missing.
However, police did mount large-scale investigations after the disappearances of the women. When Susan Rushworth, 43, a heroin addict, epileptic, and former prostitute, disappeared in June last year, officers scoured parks, railway lines and cemeteries. Police divers searched nearby rivers, and a lake was dredged.
Detectives mounted numerous public appeals, distributed leaflets asking for information, spoke of their "grave concerns for her wellbeing", and helped relatives make appeals for information through the media.
As the weeks dragged on without her mobile telephone being used or her bank account being accessed, police admitted that they feared the worst.
However, while detectives said they thought it was possible Rushworth's disappearance could suggest she had returned to work in prostitution, they thought it more likely that it was the result of her drug addiction: she had recently returned to heroin abuse after six weeks of abstinence, and had telephoned her dealer shortly before she was last seen.
When Armitage, 31, vanished on April 26th in the city's red light district, police again distributed leaflets and posted hundreds of posters around the city, interviewed large numbers of fellow prostitutes and other associates, and spoke of their concern for "a much-loved daughter and sister".
They said at that time that they were not linking her disappearance with the case of Rushworth, and today insisted they could not have connected the cases as there was no evidence that would have supported such a link.
Zoe Harford, who lives in the same street in the Allerton area of Bradford as Blamires, said she did not believe officers responded as quickly as they could.
"When Shelley went missing a month ago we called them up and told them we'd had an argument with her and hadn't seen her again and it took them three days to come and take a statement.
"It was only then that they came round and started prodding around her dustbins. I think it would have been different if she wasn't a prostitute."
Police rejected that criticism. They opened the missing persons inquiry when Armitage's boyfriend contacted them the day after her disappearance.
John Murray, another Allerton neighbour, said the police seemed to take much more interest in Blamires' disappearance than when the other women went missing. "When Shelley disappeared we didn't see the police, but on Monday police were knocking on everybody's doors," he said.
One senior Bradford officer, Superintendent Angela Williams, said the alleged murders had been "a huge shock" to the city's vice squad officers.
She added: "They are a group of police officers who have a passionate commitment to not just arresting women involved in prostitution – which in itself is a short term fix and solves very little long term – but in getting them out of what is often a vicious circle of sex work in order to feed a habit of drink and drugs."
Williams said police worked closely with local health agencies and drugs programmes, and have a high success rate in their attempts to persuade women to seek help.
"We have about a 90% success rate at getting these women to engage with the services … the first step in helping women break away from their dependencies.
"It's easy to forget that every woman involved in prostitution didn't start out that way. They all have families, personal stories and often personal tragedies which have led them to where they are today."
But many locals were angry that police ignored their complaints until it was too late. A businessman whose firm operates on Sunbridge Road, the main street where the sex workers pick up their clients, said the police could have done more to prevent the murders.
"When I used to work the night shift I would call the police ever other night to complain about the prostitutes on the street outside or the drug addicts shooting up in the back, but nothing was done about it," he said, asking not to be named "because we don't want our business tainted any more".
"This area isn't residential, so they're not so bothered about it," he added. "Most of the people who do live here are the crack addicts housed here by the council."
Looking out of the second floor window, he pointed out a sex worker outside. "They're here at all times of the day," he said. "They just don't care. If the alley at the back wasn't cordoned off you would see what they get up to. There are syringes, items of clothing, foil from the crack and heroin."
Meanwhile, police in North Yorkshire who are investigating the disappearance of a woman 14 months ago said they are liaising with colleagues in West Yorkshire.
Claudia Lawrence, 35, a chef, was reported missing after she failed to arrive for work.
A spokeswoman for North Yorkshire Police said: "Consultation will take place with our colleagues in West Yorkshire police to ensure that any factors that are common to both cases are identified and investigated promptly."

" Brand: Uncle Milton "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I love rainbows in fact rainbow is my favourite word. They are so rarely seen and I still think them breath taking when I do see one. So when I saw this product I thought it would be perfect for me.
Uncle Miltons Rainbow in my room promises to "transform your room into a magical and colourful Wonderland by projecting the beautiful rainbow arc onto walls and ceilings".
Firstly let me say I am 32 years old so I am probably not the target audience of this product but nevertheless...
The good point about Rainbow in my room is that it is aesthetically pleasing. The actual design is very slick and very "Apple" it could almost be an iRainbow. This is good for an adult as you can pass it off as a grown up product and not a toy for 3 year olds. I was surprised at how light it felt and if it was for purchased for a child it would certainly have to be kept out of reach. I found the rainbow itself a bit disappointing - I was expecting it to be produced through a prism but it was just a few LEDs and the rainbow itself was not very big or very vibrant. The rainbow did not come with batteries nor did it have a power adaptor.
I personally felt it was over priced at £25 but maybe that is because I am an adult I wanted it for myself and my expectations are a lot higher than the target audience. Although I resent buying pieces of plastic for extortionate amounts of money for kids at least you have a happy child at the end of it. I think younger kids with less cynical eyes than me may enjoy it.
I have used this less than I have seen actual rainbows. Maybe there is just nothing better than the real thing.
Rainbow in my room is a funky new gadget from the Uncle Milton Explore range of toys and varies in price from £16.99 up to about £30, so it is worth shopping around for the best deal. The unit requires 4 x AAA batteries which are not included - I feel they should be included given the exorbitant price of the item. The box also includes a small leaflet explaining how real rainbows work and the box I purchased contained a free Stellarium astronomy CD-rom, but I don't know if this comes as standard or was some kind of promotion.
The toy itself consists of a white plastic arch which measures approximately 10cm high and 20cm wide so it is small enough to fit on a shelf or desktop without looking too obtrusive.
The device can be switched on and off using the discreet button in the base of the unit which also features an automatic shut-off after 10 minutes.
How does it work? It is quite a simple device in which a series of multi-coloured LED lights embedded in the underside of the arch shine down on the special slightly convex mirror in the base of the unit to produce the rainbow effect.
The projector works best in a darkened room and at this point it is worth noting that the positioning of the arch within the room is important to achieve the optimum rainbow effect. For a small bright intensely coloured rainbow, the unit needs to be quite close to the wall and for a larger rainbow extending onto the ceiling, it needs to be located a few feet out from the wall and higher up because the clarity of the projection is compromised with increasing distance.
The colours produced are quite realistic and children find the rainbow effect enchanting. It is simple to use and relatively robust (my daughter has dropped hers several times) and despite my moaning, the batteries do last quite a long time thanks to the auto shut-off feature.
I feel that at £16.99, the toy is just about good value for money because you can't really put a price on the look on a child's face when they see a rainbow in their room. Had I paid the top-whack premium price of £30 for this I would have expected to find a pot of gold in the box as well!
Now you can project a beautiful rainbow on walls and ceilings using the Rainbow In My Room. Make your room a happier place by projecting a beautiful rainbow onto a wall or ceiling.

Attacking Skills- 1v1
See the guidance at the top of this page to understand why you are not seeing interactive Football/Soccer images.
-Every Player with ball in 20x30 grid
-Players are introduced to Messi and Ronaldo touches, choosing the correct time for each, ie close spaces use messi touches, open space use ronaldo touches.
-After a few minutes, challenge is introduced. Players now race to 50+ touches using Messi, Ronaldo, or a combination of the two.
-Players dribble throughout area using any part of foot and wait for different commands
1) Change-When coach shouts change players must leave their ball and find a new one
2) Outside- When coach yells outside all players must dribble out of the boundary stop the ball and come back in.
3)Incorporate static ball-mastery such as toe taps, stationary scissors, etc
4) Can end with game where after every switch, a ball is taken out of the field, continually decreasing to where there is only one ball left and winner is the one who gets to it first.
Coaching Points:
-Head up to see available space
-Keep ball close when in crowded area (can you take a touch every step you take)
-If see good area of space take bigger touch/accelerate into it
-Use correct dribbling technique (pinky toe touches, knee over ball)
-If lose ball outside of area, or hit another player/ball you lose 10 counts in race to 50.
See the guidance at the top of this page to understand why you are not seeing interactive Football/Soccer images.
12 x 20 (Players as shown)
-Encourage move worked on in previous week but also encourage creativity in something entirely new
- Defender (blue) passes / serves to attacker (white).
- Attacker scores by dribbling through gates
-(Can either have players score by dribbling through two outside gates which will potentially increase chances of success for the attacker, or have players score by dribbling through the middle gate which will enforce cutting behind the defender once they have beaten them.)
- Defender scores by stealing ball and scoring
- Players switch lines
- First player to 10 wins, switch fields.
Coaching Points:
1. Controlled approach driving at defender's front foot.
2. Timing / Exaggeration of move - just outside tackling radius / shoulder, knee, eyes
3. Body shape - low centre of gravity
4. Eyes up, identication of space, change of speed, angle of next touch to set up for next movement.
5. After execution of skill, must cut behind defender to close off their angle of approach.

For someone with a love affair with interesting grains, the bulk food bins at Whole Foods can provide many a happy hour. I only knew of kasha through the descriptions of MFK Fisher (it is through her writings that I have experienced many of the finer things of life) so I was instantly tempted when I spotted the pretty toasted grains at Whole Foods. A few internet searches later, I was ready to go. Well, my first attempt was kind of a disaster. The whole thing turned into some kind of awful pasty mush and since I had no idea what it was supposed to taste like I kind of made my way through the batch and then had no inclination to cook up the rest. Somewhere in the back of my mind though, I knew kasha had to be different and good. MFK Fisher would not lead me astray. So tonight I gave it another go, this time being careful to try it at different stages of cooking and stopping it when it seemed right to me. It turns out, kasha has a nice nubbly texture and wonderful nutty flavor. To go with, I fixed up a batch of Chinese eggplant (using Japanese eggplants of course), winging it the way my mom taught me. Together with some homebrewed beer gifted by some friends and I have dined!
Combine 2 cups of water with 1/4 tsp salt and bring to boil in medium saucepan. Add 1 cup of toasted buckwheat groats, lower the flame to miniscule and clap a lid on. After 10 minutes, give it a stir and taste. If there's a lot of water left, cook a few minutes longer. But check as you go and taste so it doesn't turn to mush on you. I like the grains to be tender but separate and nubbly.
Chinese Eggplant
Depending on size, a few Japanese eggplants. I used 3 big ones. Cut into manageable long rectangles, each pieces should be 2-3 bites maybe. If you cut too small they tend to disintegrate on you. Coat the pieces with some oil using your hands and throw into a dutch oven. Put the lid on top and turn on a low flame. Every so often go and stir everything up so it doesn't burn but keep on cooking until the pieces are quite soft. If it looks like it might be burning, turn the flame lower. When soft, toss in a few chopped scallions, swirl in soy sauce, water, and sugar to taste. Mix a heaping tsp of corn starch with a splash of cold water and add a bit at a time until you achieve a thickness you like. I wish I had more precise directions but this is a pretty forgiving dish I think. If it tastes too salty, add more sugar and vice versa. If too dry and you feel you've already added a bunch of soy sauce, add more water. Ditto if it got too thick.

|Brief Summary
|The purpose of this study is to see whether changes in diet and behavior lessen the number of times HIV-positive people get diarrhea (soft or loose stools).
|Detailed Description
This is a Phase I trial (a study to evaluate effectiveness in a small number of patients).
Patients will be randomized (like tossing a coin) to 1 of 2 groups:
Group 1: Patients will go on a specific diet and will be taught new behavior skills.
Group 2: Patients will be taught ways to take care of themselves and will be given general nutrition information.
Patients also will be grouped based on the cause of their diarrhea (food absorption problems or anti-HIV medication side effects). Patients will make a note of when they have bowel movements and will write down all food and drugs they take for the entire study. They will be interviewed at entry and at Weeks 1, 2, 3, 8, 16, and 24. Patients will be paid for participating in this study.

IBTimes Rating: 2
Sunny Leone's first movie of this year, "Mastizaade", was expected to have a lot of skin-show and a heavy dose of double entendres, and the film has somewhat fulfilled that expectation. However, the skin-show in the movie outpaces the humour by many miles.
Directed by Milap Zaveri and produced by Pritish Nandy Communications, "Mastizaade" is an adult comedy starring Sunny Leone, Vir Das and Tusshar Kapoor. Sunny plays a double role — sizzling diva Laila and her geeky sister Lily — but looks super hot in both the avatars. On the other side, Vir (Aditya Chotia) and Tusshar (Sunny Kele) are two sex addicts who have the special power to scan any hot girl. Yes, literally scan.
The two accidentally come across Sunny's dual avatars, but their special powers do not work on the sensuous diva. That is when Aditya and Tusshar's characters realise Lily and Laila, respectively, are the love of their lives.
Laila and Lily together run a sex-addict rehabilitation centre, in which Tusshar and Vir get admitted just to get close to their loves. Things turn good for Tusshar very soon as even Laila is drawn to him, but he gets the shock of his life when he finds out even Laila is a sex-addict and does not believe in love.
On the other hand, Vir's hopes are also shattered when he finds out Lily is already engaged to a differently-abled military aspirant. Although this plot appears to be a love story, there is definitely more lust than love from all angles. Whether Tusshar and Vir get their loves forms the crux of the story.
Sunny's sensuous avatars and her bikini scenes are the USP of "Mastizaade". Although there are some good punchlines and double entendres, the film is not up to the mark in terms of humour. However, Sunny Leone's fans will definitely have a good time with the diva offering so much for the eyes. The movie also features Suresh Menon, Shaad Randhawa and Asrani. Riteish Deshmukh has a special appearance as well.
In a nutshell, "Mastizaade" does not have much to impress you with humour, but Sunny's appearance is something fans can look forward to.

This is not a Meme!
Posted by Tanas Gjorgoski on June 26, 2008
After reading few posts on my favorite blogs lately, I though I just put a list of links to them as a sign of appreciation, respect (which turns into admiration in case of certain posts I've read on those blogs) and as a "thank you".
So, in no particular order: Siris, Splintered Mind, Mixing Memory, Mormon Metaphysics, DuckRabbit, Philosophy Sucks!, Soh DAN, The Ends of Thought… I better stop it, before I name so much of them that the word "favorite" looses any significance.

Ditto on the thanks, mate. Your blog's great too. And super thanks for the power-blogroll, without which I'd be lost in blogland.

I'm not sure that one gets to stipulate that something is or is not a meme. I think I might subscribe to anti-individualism about memes.

Here is the Green Monster picture I couldn't manage to post on Saturday. I am slowly gaining competency with my iphone, but the process is far from complete.
So I got back from my reunion, which was a good time, although no thanks to the alma mater. There was a nice turnout of some of my favorite people, many of whom I had not seen in decades. And someone managed to get a big screen feed of the Celtics-Heat game in the room, giving us an additional bit of local color for the festivities. Inexplicably, however, the alumni relations folks decided that at 10:00 PM it was time for us oldsters to hit the road despite the fact that fourth quarter had just begun and most of us were far from being done talking and sharing a glass with dear old friends. The last straw was when some twenty-something alumni relations guy sidled up to me and asked me to give him my beer. No, I said, I'm still working on it.
"Sir, I need to take that from you now."
"I don't think so."
"You have to give me the beer."
"You have to take it from me -- and I wouldn't bet on that happening."
"Am I going to have to call security?" [Seriously.]
"Call whoever you want motherfucker, they're not going to get my beer either." (It's like getting between a mother bear and her cub you know.)
Guy goes to campus cop to complain. Cop looks at him with contempt, looks over at me, continues to watch game with the rest of us.
The game finally ends (badly of course) and all of the booze is taken away ("they took the whole fucking bar" as someone inevitably observed) and booted us out at 10:45. All of us were left a bit astonished after having traveled from all over the country to attend the event. It did not strike me as the best way to some day separate us from our money on the university's behalf.
- Reading Krugman yesterday, I was struck by the thought that it seems like it has been a really long time since the world's elites have collectively lost their senses in such an impressive fashion. Really, think about it -- the west is plagued with unemployment and the dominant response is to cut government payrolls and diminish various government benefits. In turn, economies continue to contract, thereby further diminishing government revenues, exacerbating the very problem that is allegedly being targeted. Spain has achieved Depression levels of unemployment, while half of its young adults are without jobs. Meanwhile the European Central Bank continues to fight phantom inflation while economies contract across the continent; in England austerity continues to shrink the British economy, and the U.S. flounders with sluggish growth. (Amazingly enough, the U.S. has probably responded better to the bad times than most of the other western countries despite our own semi-hidden brand of austerity.) Why the western ruling class cannot understand the devastating impact of widespread and long lasting unemployment is beyond me.
- I now know who the Secretary of Commerce is.
- I still have an over long, half-written piece about unions that (as God is my witness) I will finish and post, but I thought Roy pretty much nailed the zeitgeist the other day regarding a world in which one-third of union household voters can support Scott Walker:
The one significant and ominous thing about the Wisconsin recall election is that most of the voters in a state that is not in the deep South think the problem with our economy is that garbagemen and schoolteachers make too much money.
If this is really the way things are going, then our future will be neo-feudalism, distinguished from earlier variants only by the populist buy-in with which the lords will occasionally refresh their mandate by pointing out to their serfs that someone covered in shit like themselves -- not a celebrity, banker, or manager -- was nonetheless able to build an addition on his house or buy a new car a few years early.
Nothing is certain, but the Almighty has pulled the U.S. out of a lot of jams in the past 236 years and no lucky streak lasts forever. Buy Gold, and by that I mean Cuervo.
Other than omitting granite countertops, I think this is pretty much perfection.
Alright, I've got an arbitration tomorrow and need to contemplate my strategy for tomorrow. Join in the fray.

FYI: for those of you that want to contact the AP's BS and the only way to contact them is through Facebook messaging be advised that they may not get the message in their normal inbox. FB has an "other" inbox (like spam) that messages are sent to if you two don't have any mutual friends. Unlike the normal inbox, there aren't any notifications indicating that there are new messages in the "other" inbox.
You'd be surprised what you'll find in there if you've never checked (especially if its a message from a BS.) I sent one shortly after DDay and nothing but crickets. I figured they were dealing with it on their own and that was fine by me (their A had been over for a year and a half when I found out about it.) Almost 2 months after I sent the message I was informed of this "other" inbox. I check mine out and "wow!" there is a year old message from someone in Canada working on her family tree and she thinks we might be related! (Not where you thought the story was going, was it? : ) It hits me a day later that the BH never got my message. I didn't attempt to contact him after that because I just didn't want another human being to be in the sh*t-hole that I was in. (I'm gonna take cover from all the stones that are going to come my way : )
To find this inbox you need to be on the "full site" version not moblie. On the left side column you will see "messages." Click on it. A window will pop up or a drop down menu will appear. Either way, there is a tab named "other." Click on it and hope there aren't any major surprises in there. Keep in mind that I haven't used the PC version in a long time and FB could have changed this feature making this post totally irrelevant.
However, Facebook is rolling out a new feature in which you can pay $1 to ensure that the message goes to the INBOX, not the "other" box.
I tried it, and it works.
Madhatters. More Ddays than birthdays, at this point.
Do you know if the $1 fee includes the sender and receiver?

World markets were today heartened by optimism that the United States can duck the looming package of automatic tax increases and spending cuts.
Britain's FTSE 100 Index climbed more than 2%, up 132.1 points to 5737.7, having sunk to a two-month low last week on fears that political deadlock will prevent a resolution to the US fiscal cliff.
But reports of positive talks between Republicans and Democrats in Washington have boosted confidence, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 1% at the time of London's close.

Markets in Germany and France also rallied on hopes that another meeting of EU finance ministers on Greece's bailout programme later this week will be positive.
There was a boost for the euro as a result, with the pound down against the single currency at 1.24 but slightly higher against the US dollar at 1.59.
Barclays topped the FTSE 100 risers board after investment bank Goldman Sachs introduced a buy rating on the stock and said it was optimistic about the troubled bank's ability to achieve substantial value for shareholders.
The blue-chip stock was 15.55p higher at 249.75p, while elsewhere in the banking sector HSBC lifted 22.5p to 618.3p after confirming talks over a deal to sell its stake in China's Ping An Insurance. Analysts think the sale could generate up to 3 billion US dollars (£1.9 billion) for the banking giant.
BP shares improved 15p to 431.6p after a newspaper report suggested it was contemplating whether to commit £3.7 billion to a massive share buy-back that bosses hope will revive its flagging share price and thwart possible bid suitors.
A 2% surge in the price of Brent crude to 111 US dollars a barrel amid escalation in the conflict in Gaza was also responsible for some of BP's rise.
Elsewhere in the commodity sector, improved economic optimism in the US meant Eurasian Natural Resources lifted 5% or 12.5p to 272.1p and Randgold Resources cheered 305p to 6655p.
Online supermarket group Ocado topped the FTSE 250 Index with a jump of 24% after lenders including Barclays and HSBC agreed to extend the company's £100 million loan facility until July 2015.
With existing shareholders also backing a £35.8 million share placing in the wake of improved trading figures, shares surged 14.45p to 75p.
The new shares were priced at 64p a share, representing a 6% premium on Friday night's price, but this was still 65% lower than the company's flotation price of 180p a share in July 2010.
Elsewhere, shares in Bristol-based outsourcer MITIE fell 3%, off 10p to 280p, after it said pre-tax profits fell 13% to £37.7 million due to £4.8 million of restructuring and redundancy costs. Underlying profits were up 2% to £48.8 million, helped by the start of its largest ever contract with Lloyds.
Aga Rangemaster's shares jumped 11% or 6p to 62p after it said trading for its major brands had shown encouraging signs, driven by the launch of new ranges.
Meanwhile, Majestic Wine shares were 11p higher at 476p after it reported a 4% rise in half-year profits.
The biggest FTSE 100 risers were Barclays up 15.55p to 249.75p, ARM Holdings ahead 36p to 747p, Eurasian Natural Resources 12.5p higher at 272.1p and Randgold Resources up 305p to 6655p.
The biggest FTSE 100 fallers were Melrose down 2p to 206.9p, G4S off 1.7p to 242.4p, Pennon 1.5p lower at 598p and Shire down 2p to 1727p.

Unison affiliates 600,000 members to Labour and pays the party £1.5m a year, but is accusing Tony Blair of ignoring their views by pursuing policies such as introducing foundation hospitals.
A highly critical motion certain to pass at a conference of the public sector union next weekend in Glasgow calls for a reconsideration of constitutional ties under the "partnership in power" pact with Labour, adopted five years ago.
Elsewhere in the unions, leftwingers and disillusioned Labour activists are preparing to use the conference season to attack the link and even propose disaffiliation.
Andy Gilchrist, leader of the Fire Brigades Union, yesterday acknowledged fresh pressure in his ranks to break with Labour. This week calls will even be made to disaffiliate the traditionally moderate white collar transport union TSSA.
Unison was the union that proposed the "partnership in power" motion, adopting a network of regional and national forums to decide Labour policy, but claims the arrangement is no longer working as Mr Blair pursues his agenda.
The government is accused of ignoring the views of Labour conferences, including votes for a review of the private finance initiative and restoration of a link between state pensions and earnings.
Warning that party membership is falling and grassroots' dissatisfaction rising, Unison contrasts the "sterility" of Labour meetings with the "vitality" of this year's stop the war protests.
Unison's leadership supports the party link, and activists believe the move by the union's affiliated political fund conference is intended to head off a bid to completely sever ties at Unison's main conference in July.
Even Labour loyalists in Unison concede that the relationship is faltering: next weekend's motion highlights "substantial differences between the beliefs and policies of most members of the Labour party and the affiliated organisations, and the actions of government over some key policies".
The RMT rail, GMB general, and CWU communications unions have all reduced funding in recent years.
The dissatisfaction is underlined by TSSA's conference this week. A motion to break the link is one of a series attacking New Labour, particularly its refusal to take the rail industry back into public ownership.
The leadership remains loyal to Labour. TSSA's general secretary, Richard Rosser, who will speak out against disaffiliation, said: "Quitting the party would only mean one thing: less chance of having a government which is friendly to working people."

MSNBC debuted a new ad on Friday from Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz directed at his potential rival Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — and it features a spot-on spoof of a scene from the movie "Office Space."
"Damn, it feels good to be a Clinton," a man raps as footage is shown of two men and a woman in a pantsuit destroying a computer.
First look at new @tedcruz ad in SC targeting @HillaryClinton and lampooning classic 'Office Space' scene https://t.co/Mu1YI4KJZJ
— Morning Joe (@Morning_Joe) February 12, 2016
"A Clinton never needs to explain why it is that they've done or with who. A real Clinton knows that they're entitled and you don't get to know what they do."
"A server full of secrets ain't no thing," it continues in reference to the scandal surrounding Clinton's emails.
Here's the scene from the movie to compare (edited for language):
Last night, the Cruz campaign pulled an anti-Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) ad after they discovered an actress featured in the ad has been in soft-core porn films.

For god sake, some one has a slightly biased (but still there own opinion) review of the 3 next-gen consoles and you start calling him a fan-boy because the PS3 is not crowned all-conquering champion? Get a grip.
Fairly good review on the whole, a few misconceptions but sums up the three very well; PS3 and Xbox 360 very evenly matched and the Wii trailing in terms of features but gameplay is an un-known.

Just a little something I noticed: the PS3 will be more available to change hard drives, as it uses a standard 2.5 hard drive that are fairly common in the market.Avatar credit goes to Mik2121 of NeoGAF

PS3 = Freedom in Gaming, Modding, Browsing, Homebrew, BluRay Movies, Linux Computer Powerhouse and tons more! Xbox = Slavery to M$ rules, no Browsing the Web, No Free Flash games, No Free Demo Games (they charge for everything), and top it all off with a heat monster and 2 ton power brick! So you're comparing to the intelligence impaired design of a loser system that's sales are dropping through the floor as we speak! It was recently revealed that X360 Sales are behind even the original Xbox at launch! They have no hope of hitting the sales numbers they'd hoped for by the PS3 Launch!
How many 10 million! How close? Not even! Not even 9 million, not even 8 million sold to date! They may have many on the shelves, but they all just collecting dust!
So all you hired Xbot Fans shut it up, put your tail between your legs and haul your arses on out of here! Cuz the numbers don't lie just as the numbers on the PS2 after all is said and done have overwhelmed the odds and M$ Slop Talk!

That was terrible. He compared built in features with add-ons and there was alot of false info. For one, Xbox dosen't have free online.
11-18-2006 #63
Now we know how 360 fanboys think. They absolutely love expensive and often extremely limited add ons with little or no actual functionality.
360 fanboy: Wow! a 400 dollar console that offers an add on HD-DVD drive that costs 200 dollars, not to mention an inferior format! What a bargain when I can get a console that costs the same sum which includes a better format, better features, and better hardware. Oh boy, I can't wait to get that wireless adapter for the 360.

-"Swappable 20GB/60GB HDD
The 360 has swapabile hard drives, wii does not, the PS3 might have the 60GB option as an edge but there's a distinct possiblity that the 360 will have larger sizes availble this holiday as well. again both of them offer this feature
PS3: 1 point
360: 1 point
Wii: 0 points"
I like this one a lot.. Espicially when they are saying 360 will offer more storage.. when PS3 already is compatable with any 2.5 HDD.. I mean I can get a 250 GB HDD and put it in the PS3.

Boston restaurant closed since marathon bombings to reopen
BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) – With a revamped floor plan and new menu, Forum Restaurant is almost ready to reopen its doors to customers after being shut down for nearly four months following the Boston Marathon bombings.
Forum, which is the last business to reopen since the April 15 bombings, is hoping to be ready for service mid-August, but the official date will be confirmed in the next few days, reports the Back Bay Patch.
The restaurant reportedly hired Morris Nathanson Design to complete the renovations.
Executive Vice President of 451 Marketing Nicole Russo told the Patch the restaurant will have all new furniture, a new wall, and a new bar.
Forum, which is located at 755 Boylston Street, had been hosting a Boston Marathon watching party that doubled as a fundraiser when the dual explosions occurred. Staffers rushed to help the injured and to keep restaurant-goers calm.
In the days and weeks following the tragedy, the restaurant's staff was praised for their valiant effort and bravery during the chaos.
Following the bombings, Forum posted on its Facebook page, "We will prevail. We love you Boston."

Lead poisoning
Lead is a metal that was once a common additive to household paint and leaded gasoline and was used in water pipes and as a solder in canned foods. Although these uses have been limited in the U.S., the interiors of many houses built before 1978 contain peeling lead paint chips and dust and lead-contaminated water. Soil surrounding these houses may also be contaminated with lead. Children who live, play, or spend time in these environments are at risk of exposure to this metal and can bring lead into their bodies by inhaling or ingesting contaminated dust, water, paint chips, or lead-contaminated items. Other local sources of lead may be areas near industrial or manufacturing sites.
A young child's exposure to lead can damage the brain and other organs and cause behavioral problems and developmental delays. Even at low levels, lead can cause irreversible damage without causing physical symptoms, and impaired cognitive development may not be noticed until the child enters school.
Poisoning from this environmental hazard usually occurs in early childhood and many children in the United States need to be screened for lead poisoning.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that a risk assessment be performed for lead exposure at well-child visits at 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months, and at 3, 4, 5, and 6 years of age. A blood lead level test should be done only if the risk assessment comes back positive. According to the AAP and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), universal screening or blood lead level tests are no longer recommended, except for children in high prevalence areas with increased risk factors.
Pediatricians may also offer screening to:
- Medicaid-eligible children at age 1 and again at 2 years of age
- Children of all ages who are recent immigrants, refugees, or adoptees at the earliest opportunity
- A child whose parent, guardian, or provider requests blood lead testing due to suspected exposure
People should check with their healthcare practitioner and/or local health department regarding lead screening guidelines specific to the risks in their area.
The CDC uses a threshold blood lead level (BLL) of 5 mcg/dL (five micrograms per deciliter) to identify children living in environments that expose them to lead hazards. Any test results above this level should trigger lead management and monitoring. Any child who has an elevated blood lead level needs to have his or her home or other environment evaluated. Other people at the residence should be tested as well. Without the elimination or reduction of the source of the exposure - a lead hazard in the environment - the elevated lead level will likely recur.

This New Baby By Teddy Jam, illustrated by Virginia Johnson, Groundwood Books, 22 pages, $8.95, ages 0 to 3
In her first book-illustration project, noted textile designer Virginia Johnson brings her trademark touches of scintillating colour and deft, oblique design to a board book by the late and much-lamented Teddy Jam (a.k.a. Matt Cohen). The book is an extended poem that begins, "This new baby sleeps in my arms like a moon sleeping on a cloud/ like apples falling through rain/ like a fish swimming through a sky …" Any new mother, father or grandparent, any new baby, will willingly surrender herself, himself, to the thrall of these words and pictures.
The Circle Game By Joni Mitchell, illustrated by Brian Deines, Dancing Cat Books, 32 pages, $20, ages 3 to 6
Brian Deines's glorious illustrations bring a beloved song, The Circle Game, to new life for a new generation as well as for older ones. They play imaginatively on the theme of the song, the circularity of time and life in Mitchell's reprise: "And the seasons they go round and round/ And the painted ponies go up and down./ We're captive on the carousel of time." Mitchell's magic is more than reciprocated in Deines's luminescent oils, in many of which circles and orbs, Klimt-like, "go round and round and round in the circle game."
Molito By Rosemary Sullivan and Juan Opitz, illustrated by Colleen Sullivan, Black Moss Press, 48 pages, $18, ages 4 to 7
"Deep under the ground lived a little mole named Molito. His fur was brown, the colour of burnt toast. His eyes were yellow as the sun." Thus begins a picture-book collaboration by noted Canadian biographer Rosemary Sullivan, Chilean exile Juan Optiz and Sullivan's artist sister, Colleen. Molito lives happily with his friends in an underground world of tunnels. He dreams, though, of the world above ground. It's a dangerous one, he discovers, but a wonderful one, where he finds new friends to play his music with. Torn between his old world and his new, he digs a tunnel from one to the other, from darkness to light. Molito is a potent allegory for life in Pinochet's Chile, but that doesn't overpower words and images that dance on the page.
A Few Blocks Written and illustrated by Cybèle Young, Groundwood Books, 48 pages, $18.95, ages 4 to 7
It's only a few blocks from Ferdie's and his older sister Viola's home to their school, but it's a distance that Ferdie is reluctant to travel: "He didn't want to go to school. 'Not now,' he said. 'Maybe never.' " Not now, maybe never, is a mantra he digs out of his figurative pocket several times on the way to school, despite the enticements Viola offers: Flights into fantasy worlds that boggle Ferdie's mind and, ingeniously constructed in collage and watercolours by Young, will do the same to other small Ferdies and Violas. In a neat little flip at the end of this enchantment, it's Ferdie who entices Viola to walk the last few blocks to school.
Ankylosaur Attack By Daniel Loxton, illustrated by Daniel Loxton with Jim W.W. Smith, Kids Can, 32 pages, $16.95, ages 4 to 7
A dinosaur is a thing with feathers, as recent discoveries in Alberta have confirmed, but there is nothing downy about the ankylosaur at the centre of this "clash of the titans" tale. Heavily armoured with plates and a club-like tail, the massive ("As long as a mid-sized moving truck") vegetarian almost meets his match, while defending an ancient and wounded ankylosaur, in the jaws of an even larger, meat-eating member of the Tyrannosaurus rexs. A combination of minimal text containing maximal information and computer-generated, photo-realistic images of the creatures in their natural setting makes Loxton's book a mind-blower/eyeball popper for that dino-crazy species that lives among us.
Dear Baobab By Cheryl Foggo, illustrated by Qin Leng, Second Story, 24 pages, $15.95, ages 6 to 8
Seven-year-old Maiko, who since his parents' death has come to live with his aunt and uncle in North America, misses his African village and its huge baobab tree. He used to sit in its shade, "eating cashews with the other children, who seemed not to notice that his ears stuck straight out from his head." The children in his new school in his new country do notice his protuberant ears – the class bully, Leonard, makes sure of that, and the tiny spruce that seems to have sprung up out of the foundations of his new house is a paltry thing, no match for a 2,000-year-old baobab. Maiko's coming to terms with life in his new home, a process in which the little spruce plays a large part, is subtle and beautiful in its telling, both verbally and visually.
We Need a Horse By Sheila Heti, illustrated by Clare Rojas, McSweeney's/McMullin's, 24 pages, $18.95, all ages
Do we? One of the first fruits of Dave Eggers's new children's imprint, and the first children's book by Canadian novelist Sheila Heti, this strange, somewhat ambiguous book doesn't traverse the usual arc of children's literature. That said, it will appeal to those who – children or the elders with whom they will probably read it – enjoy its Zen-ish quality, its originality and its illustrations, particularly of the sloe-eyed animals who figure so prominently. Among them is the titular horse, a speckled creature who asks the light, "What is the reason I was made a horse and not some other animal?" Light answers, "Because we needed another horse."
Bumble-Ardy Written and illustrated by Maurice Sendak, Michael de Capua/HarperCollins, 40 pages, $19.99, all ages
Maestro Sendak, author of Where the Wild Things Are and In the Night Kitchen, among other titles, may be 83, but he appears to be in full possession of his creative powers. The chief protagonist of this picture book is Bumble-Ardy, a pig, who hasn't had a birthday party since he was 8. Why? Because, "When Bumble was eight/ (Oh, pig-knuckled fate!)/ His immediate family gorged and gained weight./ And got ate." A large and porcine sweet Aunt Adeline comes to the rescue when he is 9, with "Birthday cake and brine." Unwisely, perhaps, she leaves the party for work and a shocker of a rumpus ensues with a cast of characters only Sendak could have conjured up. Allusive, slightly and delightfully transgressive, full of winning, whining rhyme, Bumble-Ardy makes you gasp and stretch your eyes – in all the very best ways.
Wonderstruck A Novel in Words and Pictures, written and illustrated by Brian Selznick, Scholastic, 640 pages, $29.99, ages 9 to 12
There are two tales in this novel, a successor to Selznick's first, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, a book of words and pictures. Here, the tale told in pictures – black-and-white pencil drawings that mesmerize with their sense of stillness and mystery – begins in 1927 and follows the seemingly inexplicable peregrinations of a young girl, a New Yorker who, we come to understand, is deaf. The second tale, told in words by a boy, Ben, begins in 1977 in Minnesota. He, too, is deaf. His dearly loved mother has been killed in a car crash and he has no father. Or has he? Clues about a possible father, seem to point to New York City, to which the boy travels alone by bus. The American Museum of Natural History becomes the locus not just of Ben's discoveries about his father, but of the intersection of these two tales. This is a big, beautiful book, a compulsive read, a veritable cabinet of wonders itself.
I'll Be Watching By Pamela Porter, Groundwood, 280 pages, $12.95, young adult
"Dust got us all." Those words of the town's postmistress, establish the reality of Argue, Sask., in 1941. Drought and its result, dust, have devastated the tiny town and its inhabitants, none more so than the Loney family. George, the father, profoundly damaged by his First World War experiences and the loss of the family farm, is the town drunk; his wife, Margaret, has died in a car crash, while George was driving. When George dies, curled up on his doorstep, locked out of his house by Effie, the gorgon he subsequently married, his children's lives hurtle into an abyss of poverty and deprivation. Their story, told in verse and in many voices, of which 14-year-old Norah's is central, is riveting. The distillation of character, events and small-town mores is masterful, as is this emotionally powerful novel's narrative energy and thrust, which culminates in a realistic yet heart-warming resolution. A huge accomplishment by Pamela Porter.

Big-box T&M struts at ESC Boston 2011
1 comments post a comment
The major test and measurement vendors showed that "embedded" is an important opportunity for them.
As expected, the just-concluded Embedded Systems Conference in Boston has lots of software tools, debuggers, compilers, and code optimizers. But there's more to ESC than just software.
Walking the conference floor, I saw lots of hardwareand I mean real hardware: power supplies, heat sinks, heat pipes, fans, chassis assemblies, and more. I also saw that the major test and measurement vendors had substantial presence?: Agilent, Tektronix, Rhode & Schwarz, and LeCroy.
Why ESC? I asked the various booth representatives and the answers were pretty much along these lines: with the enormous growth in applications for embedded systems, and the increases in performance (speed, resolution, data rates, bandwidth, accuracy) of such systems, embedded designers need high-end equipment. In other words, T&M vendors are going where the action is.
These vendors did not have small, "token" booths on the floor: they were large, well-staffed, and had lots of test gear so attendees could get some serious hands-on, try-it time. The photos dont fully capture the situation: you'll have to extrapolate on your own.

Taking steps to ensure a healthy pregnancy might prevent your infant from being born before his or her lungs have fully developed. These steps include:
- Seeing your doctor regularly during your pregnancy
- Following a healthy diet
- Avoiding tobacco smoke, alcohol, and illegal drugs
- Managing any medical conditions you have
- Preventing infections
If you're having a planned cesarean delivery (C-section), your doctor can do tests before delivery to show whether it's likely that your baby's lungs are fully developed. These tests assess the age of the fetus or lung maturity.
Your doctor may give you injections of a corticosteroid medicine if he or she thinks you may give birth too early. This medicine can speed up surfactant production and development of the lungs, brain, and kidneys in your baby.
Treatment with corticosteroids can reduce your baby's risk of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). If the baby does develop RDS, it will probably be fairly mild.
Corticosteroid treatment also can reduce the chances that your baby will have bleeding in the brain.

I meant an update after clean IOS were installed manually using a custom IOS such as IOS236 or cIOS38 rev 14 or 17....they will easily overwrite any higher revision IOS with a lower revision. Example, you could install IOS60 v6174 over top of IOS60 v65535 or v54321 without returning the -1035 error.Quote:
@Krank --- A 4.3 update disc would only work for those who don't have 65535 (c)IOSes installed. Thanks for the thought, though. Maybe I can add it to the guide.
This is very important because the guide will be useless if it does not cover overwriting IOS revisions with a higher revision number.
EDIT: IOS16 v512 is a STUB. Why is it included in the main IOS? Doesn't make much of a difference as the structure will need to be changed....just curious? Nice job on the pack.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 08, 2012
Other features unique to the SuperNova grow box are the bottom vegetation chamber that includes a SuperCloner-50 as well as a SuperMother hydroponics system, the Dual Carbon Filtration configuration, and the T-5 Side Lighting. The SuperCloner-50 and the SuperMother hydroponics system, allows a grower to harvests continually as plants are cloned and vegetated below, and flowered up top. The Dual Carbon Filtration configuration is comprised of (2) two fans positioned behind charcoal filters and oriented to pull waste air through the filters. The Dual Carbon Filtration system doubles the amount of air being pulled in and out of the SuperNova, which translates into healthier plants, and total odor mitigation. The T-5 Supplemental Side Lighting is the addition of (2) two full spectrum T-5 lights positioned on the right and left side of the flowering chamber. The T-5 Supplemental Side lighting provides light to the bottom third of the plant's body mass leading to a larger yield of usable plant matter. A SuperPonics-16 system is what the large flowering chamber above the vegetation chamber use to grow 16-huge plants, completely automated with virtually no maintenance other than changing out water once every 7-10 days. SuperPonics is defined as the "fusion of proven hydroponic methods". SuperPonics systems grow plants up to 2-5X faster than traditional methods. The different hydroponic methods of top feed drip and bottom bubble feed deep water culture provide redundant safety systems in case either a water pump, air pump, or electrical circuitry fails. Plants stay strong, and healthy in SuperPonics systems through nearly all situations, which make the SuperNova an ideal product whether one is a beginner or professional. As usual with all SuperCloset grow boxes, the SuperNova blends in perfectly in any home, locks up securely, is pre-assembled, and comes with every imaginable component enabling a new customer to be up and growing within 90 minutes of receiving their SuperNova.
About SuperCloset:
SuperCloset takes the guesswork out of growing through manufacturing the most innovative and customer friendly hydroponic systems and turnkey grow box units. After 10 years SuperCloset continues to lead the horizontal and vertical growing industry with its commitment to excellent products and world-class customer service.

A pedestrian plaza in Times Square has led to "an immediate and substantial" improvement in air quality in the surrounding area, New York City officials said.
The findings, released Wednesday, are from a Health Department air quality study.
The city estimates that a quarter-million pedestrians enter Times Square each day.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced the findings at a news conference. He also said he and former President Bill Clinton are merging their environmental efforts.
C40 and the Clinton Climate Initiative both seek to cut carbon emissions through efficient buildings, mass transit and reusing gases emitted by landfills.
Over the past two years, the city has banned cars from parts of Times Square, Union Square and Herald Square.

Since stepping into the San Jose Earthquakes' starting lineup for the first time on Aug. 3 of last year, Cordell Cato has been a fixture in coach Mark Watson's team sheets.
Until last week, that is.
Cato and Jean-Baptiste Pierazzi were both dropped from Watson's midfield during the club's trip to Colorado as the coach tried to find a way to prevent his club from getting overwhelmed in the center of the pitch. The tactical shift helped the Quakes record their first shutout of 2014 in a 0-0 tie.
Cato came on in the 88th minute to replace hamstring-hampered Yannick Djalo, keeping his string of consecutive league appearances alive at 17 straight matches heading into San Jose's game against Chivas USA on Saturday (10:30 pm ET; MLS Live). But it was the fewest minutes he's played as a member of the Quakes and only his third time coming off the bench during that stretch.
"It's a disappointment at first," Cato told MLSsoccer.com this week. "Stuff happens like this where stuff wasn't going well and a change is made. But I've just got to be prepared, not worry about where I play – as long as I play and make a difference. That's what's important."
Watson preferred Atiba Harris to Cato on the right wing against the Rapids. That may not be an option against Chivas if Harris is pressed into duty as a target forward. Steven Lenhart (sprained knee ligament) and Adam Jahn (suspended) are unavailable and Alan Gordon, who came out of the Colorado match with a couple of knocks, might not suit up against Los Rojiblancos, as well.
Whatever the case this weekend, Watson thinks the 21-year-old Cato will come back stronger from the experience in the longer term.
"There are going to be moments when you have other players, good professionals, that are looking to play as well," Watson told MLSsoccer.com. "There's going to be moments when you're not chosen. The key is just to stay focused and keep working hard, and when you do play, do well. It's as simple as that. … He's just got to stay focused and keep working and keep taking his chances when they come."
Although Cato comes across as having the opposite demeanor from Quakes captain Chris Wondolowski – whose facial contortions and on-field communications leave no doubt as to the depths of his passion – the Trinidad & Tobago native is just as dedicated to his task of getting back into Watson's side.
"You maybe don't see it a lot, but as a player, yeah, I talk on the field," Cato said. "Off the field, I'm as quiet as the most quiet person, but I still want to win, just as much as anybody else. I still get mad when we lose. It's the same. It's just not out there for everyone to see."
- Get the latest news at SJEarthquakes.com
For Pierazzi, the benching illustrates what a tough transition – both to MLS and a new position – it has been thus far for the former captain of top-flight French side Ajaccio. After four games of playing alongside Sam Cronin in a 4-4-2, Pierazzi made way for rookie JJ Koval, the Quakes' first-round pick in this year's SuperDraft, who started in the center of a 4-1-4-1 setup with Cronin shielding the back four.
"With Jean, I just think he still needs some time to kind of get accustomed to everything," Watson told MLSsoccer.com. "We know he's a good player. We've seen him play many times, and we know he has quality, playing in midfield and making runs forward, which is something that we would want of him when he does play. We'll keep working with him. He's got a great work ethic. I think it'll just take a little bit of time for him to feel comfortable."

New Law in Nevada Expands Nurse Practitioner Scope of Care
Gov. Sandoval signed the bill into law June 2 and it will go into effect July 1, according to the report. Nevada joins 16 other states and Washington, D.C., in allowing patients full, direct access to nurse practitioner services, according to a news release from The American Association of Nurse Practitioners.
Physician groups in Nevada previously expressed opposition to allowing nurse practitioners an increased scope of care.

All quotes by Steve Holmes
(21 quotes found)
"[UPS Inc., the parcel delivery service, has tacked a 9.5 percent fuel surcharge onto air and international shipments and a 2.75 percent charge onto ground shipments, but that] doesn't cover everything, ... We look at this thing from a competitive standpoint . . . and about what is the right thing to do in maintaining relationships with customers."
"We do consider The UPS Store the premier retail channel for our business. And to quote Mr. Eskew, we are 'laser focused' on helping store owners grow their business."
"Buy.com provides us the customer information, [which] we then provide back to them in the form of a shipping label,"
"Our intention was to make it easier to access and use the tools UPS.com offers. This issue never came up when we piloted this software. No customer ever brought it up."
"We sent out thousands of software packages, and we've received a significant number of telephone calls [from unhappy users]. It's an inconvenience to customers, but we can walk them through a fix on the telephone."
"When the software is installed, if [a user] doesn't have the latest version of [Microsoft's] Internet Explorer 5.5, it will automatically upgrade his browser and put up the UPS home page as his home page. The software doesn't give you a choice of whether or not you want to upgrade. Our software developers understood that if it was upgraded, [a customer's] browser had to go to our home page."
"Certainly other delivery companies are beginning to realize the value of home delivery. But you couldn't get a whole lot more fierce than you already were, ... Even if you look at it and say it's not as profitable as b-to-b deliveries, it's still contributing to our fixed costs. The more volume you can win, you can create density to make it more an more profitable."

Sept. 13, 2013 — Park University's International Center for Music will open its 10th anniversary concert season series with world-renowned Israeli violinist Shmuel Ashkenasi on Saturday, Sept. 28, at 7:30 p.m. in Graham Tyler Memorial Chapel on the University's Parkville Campus.
Called a "genuine talent and profoundly gifted" by The Vienna Express, Ashkenasi will be joined by ICM faculty in performances of Dvořák's "Romantic Pieces," Moszkowski's "Suite for Two Violins and Piano" and Mendelssohn's "String Quintet No. 2."
Born in Tel Aviv, Israel, Ashkenasi attended the Musical Academy of Tel Aviv prior to coming to the United States on a scholarship to study with Efrem Zimbalist at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. He has been on the faculty at the Curtis Institute since 2007. Ashkenasi won the Meriweather Post Competition, was a finalist in Belgium's Queen Elisabeth competition and received second prize at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow. He is first violinist of the famed Vermeer Quartet, gaining a reputation as one of the world's outstanding chamber musicians.
Tickets for the concert are — general admission: $15 in advance, $20 at the door; senior citizens age 60 and older: $10; students with a valid student ID: $5; Park University students, faculty, staff and their children age 12 and under: free. To purchase tickets in advance, visit www.park.edu/icm.

The ICM's 2013-14 concert season will continue with the Kansas City area debut of acclaimed Spanish pianist Luis Fernando Perez on Saturday, Nov. 16.
