Bobby is a film by Emilio Estevez that focuses on an amazing number of stories all set at the Ambassador Hotel the day Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated. Not only is it incredibly important, as Kennedy's wisdom is timeless and has an especially poignant impact on today's politics, but it's one of the most powerful films of the year, even above Death of a President, Babel, or Flags of Our Fathers. Bobby is a stunning film that celebrates the life of Robert F. Kennedy while also involving the lives of 22 other people at the hotel.
Author's Note: Some early reviews of Bobby have criticized the acting and script, but that is all overshadowed by just how powerful the film is. I enjoyed the performances, I enjoyed the characters, and above all, I was immensely affected by what it portrayed in connection to Kennedy. It does have a few moments that aren't the greatest performances and where the lines aren't that great, but that doesn't mean that the film on a whole can't be looked at as something much more incredible. This achievement alone and listening (for some, again) to the speech Kennedy delivers at the end makes Bobby definitely worth seeing.
As Robert F. Kennedy finished traveling across the United States in June of 1968, 22 individuals' lives would change forever. Bobby tells the brief story in one day's time of these people from the General Manager of the Ambassador Hotel (William H. Macy) and his wife (Sharon Stone), to the chefs and kitchen staff (Laurence Fishburne, Freddy RodrÃguez), the resident singer Virginia Fallon (Demi Moore) who performs nightly and her husband (Emilio Estevez), the long-time doorman (Anthony Hopkins), Kennedy's campaign coordinator (Joshua Jackson) and troublemaking volunteers (Shia LaBeouf and Brian Geraghty), and even a foreign reporter (Svetlana Metkina) looking for an interview with Kennedy. Although Estevez has a tendency to focus on a few of the stories much less than others, each one is approached with the same amount of passion from both the actors and the filmmakers.
When you go to funerals and they say to remember someone's life for the happier moments and the people they touched - this film does just that. It is a true triumph in remembering Bobby Kennedy's life in such a heartwarming way with so many great characters. It captures well many personalities and trends of the day, including one touch on the "Youth of America on LSD." You remember someone's life for who he was and what he said, not how he died, and although Bobby is about his unfortunate assassination, it is remembering him through those moments and the lives he touched. Often interspersed with real footage of Bobby's interviews and his travels across America leading up to his arrival at his hotel, it evokes a strong close connection with a very emotionally captivating character.
Instead of getting an actor with a likeness of Kennedy to portray him, Estevez has decided to leave it authentic. Real footage of his address at the hotel and other scenes were intermixed with shots of the crowd full of all of these characters - no actual filmed facial shots of an actor portraying Kennedy were shown beyond the real footage. Unfortunately this decision took away from the otherwise involving story that was filmed with the actors. The quality of filming at the time was far from what it is today, and that obvious difference is found in these scenes where Estevez tries to connect today's footage with Bobby's real appearances. To some, this will help with the authenticity, as no one can replace Bobby, but to others, this will detract from the experience.
Bobby does have one of the most incredibly powerful and emotionally saddening scenes in any movie this entire year. One of Robert Kennedy's most amazing speeches is overlaid on top of the ending scenes after he's been shot and the mass confusion and panic that ensues at the hotel. The power and construction of this scene undoubtedly makes every previous moment throughout worth it, no matter how much everyone may say poor writing or poor acting otherwise destroyed it. Why can't the critics out there just appreciate and enjoy something like this? Why must they have to attack it and critically demean a movie that at the least has an ending no other movie this entire year will be able to match?
Last Word:
Bobby has everything: great comedy, moving emotional moments, a handful of talented actors, heartwarming stories and messages throughout, and best of all, the timeless wisdom of Robert F. Kennedy. Even today, Bobby, and the speech from Kennedy, depicts a strong emphasis on violence and only the destruction it brings upon this world. When a film can capture this amount of emotion, and tell wonderful stories with a fantastic and varied cast, it is certainly a masterpiece.

Ultraman Belial
Saramandora (サラマンドラ Saramandora?) , also known as Sramandra or Salamandora, is a salamander-like monster that serves the Alien Gorgon from the TV series, Ultraman 80. Salamandora appeared in Episode 13.
Subtitle: Regeneration Monster (再生怪獣 Saisei Kaiju?)
- Height: 60 m
- Weight: 40,000 t
- Origin: Planet Gorgon
- Attack: 800
- Defense: 800
- Speed: 900
Ultraman 80
A tool of destruction used by the Alien Gorgon, Saramandora went on a rampage in Tokyo. Buildings crumbled into piles of debris as it assaulted everything in sight, and UGM's weapons were proving useless against the beast. Before Ultraman 80 could come into play, however, its alien masters summoned Saramandora back.
The reptile would be unleashed yet again after the Alien Gorgon's second plan failed. The creature was again on the offensive, and this time it was also using its cannon-like blasts. Destroying several jets and bringing down the specialized aircraft utilized by UGM, Ultraman 80 was forced into action to contend with the beast. The monster's cannon blasts were no use against such a being, but when he switched to his flames, the giant put up a shield and fought back, eventually using the Saxium Ray, but it did little against the creature. Surprised by this, Ultraman 80 moved in again, pummeling Saramandora again before firing his eye beams, destroying the monster.
- Saramandora's roar is a reused roar of the Toho monster Maguma.
- Saramandora's suit would later be used for Lavuras
Ultraman Mebius
Saramandora's history is never explained as he ambushes both Mirai and Serizawa (Ultraman Mebius and Hikari's human forms.) Both quickly assumed their Ultra forms, with Mebius managing to toss Saramandora aside and used his Mebium Shot to finish him quickly. However, Saramandora's armored-plated skin allowed him to shrug it off and then he beat Mebius to the ground, so Hikari fought the monster. Hikari had little to no trouble beating and tossing Saramandora around and then finished it off with a quick slash from his Knight Blade, which seemingly destroyed Saramandora.
At first it seemed Saramandora was destroyed, but in fact was still alive due to regeneration. (Not every single cell was destroyed when Hikari "destroyed" him with his blade.) Salamandora later returned that day to resume his rampage. Team GUYS tried to take care of the monster themselves but were no match for Saramandora. Ultraman Hikari later returned and tried to take Salamandora by himself, but was beaten down by the monster. Once GUYS found Salamandora's weak spot under his chin they struck it, stunning Saramandora temporarily. With that opening, Ultraman Mebius returned to aid Hikari and together they both destroyed Saramandora completely by blasting him with the Mebium Shot and the Knight Shot together.
- In this series, Saramandora is shown with a regenerative ability, this allowed him to heal from it's previous wounds in the first battle.
- His previous defeat was retconned to state that Ultraman 80 burnt every cell in his body.
Ultraman Mebius Side Story: Armored Darkness
After the destruction of Alien Empera and Ultraman Mebius left Earth things on Earth seemed to quiet down. However, this would not last long as the monster Saramandora suddenly appeared. GUYS acted quickly and managed to injure Saramandora by hitting the soft spot under his neck. After some clever tactics Salamandora exploded, but he was only one of a few monsters revived by Armored Darkness.
Ultra Galaxy Mega Monster Battle
In this series, Saramandora is partnered with the monsters Nova and Lunatix and all three monsters were guarding a military base that had supplies that the ZAP SPACY needed for their ship. Rei sent Gomora as the ZAP SPACY retrieved the parts they needed. Gomora easily destroyed Nova, vaporizing him instantly with the Super Oscilatory Wave, but Saramandora and Lunatix double-teamed Gomora and beat him down. Before the battle could progress much further, both Saramandora and Lunaticks were destroyed by the appearance of four black ships that would immediately reveal themselves to be a malfunction robot from Planet Pedan.
- During the opening credits to the series, Saramandora is seen battling Eleking, even though neither monster fought or met each other in the series.
- When Gomora battled him and grabbed his head, Saramandora's scream was a reused roar from another of Toho's monsters, Rodan.
- In the first episode of Mega Monster Battle, when Oki shows Haruna Peguila on his computer, Salamandora's silhouette from Ultraman Mebius can be seen along with Gudon, Birdon, Twin Tail, Vakishim, and Alien Mefilas.
Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Galaxy Legend The Movie
Saramandora was partnered up with the monsters Dorako and Bemstar as their leader, Alien Shaplay ambushed the Ultra Brothers. However, they were met by surprise from Dan's capsule monsters Windam, Miclas, and Agira. Saramandora fought Windam.
After Rei and Mirai were rescued, Windam destroyed Saramandora with his Forehead Shot.
- In the original screenplay, Saramandora was originally supposed to battle Agira.
Ultraman Ginga
Saramandora appeared in Ultraman Ginga as a Spark Doll. In episode 7, he along with many other Spark Dolls are seen cheering Ginga on as he fights Dark Galberos. It is likely that Saramandora returned to space in his original form after Ultraman Ginga defeated Dark Lugiel.
Ultraman X
Saramandora appeared in the series as a Spark Doll along with King Crab, Sadola, and two others recovered by Xio from an unknown mission.My Friend's a Monster
In the final episode of Ultraman X, after Greeza destroyed the Xio base, Saramandora's Spark Doll was absorbed by Greeza. After speaking out to Gomora and striking Greeza right in the center of his chest, Saramandora, along with all of the other Spark Dolls, traveled to X and united with him. Saramandora's power was used to help form the Hybrid armor and power up the Ultimate Xanadium to defeat Greeza once and for all. Saramandora, along with the numerous other Cyber Cards and Spark Dolls, then appeared and thanked Daichi as he thanked them.Land of the Rainbow
Powers and Weapons
- Flame Breath: Saramandora can emit and spew a deadly, super-heated stream of fire, estimated to be over 13,000 degrees, breathed from his mouth and nostrils that can make buildings explode.
- Fireballs: By gathering up heat in his mouth Saramandora can fire powerful fireballs.
- Organic Missile Cannon Blasts: When needed, Saramandora can fire several cannon-like, missile-strength missile blasts from his mouth in rapid succession. They have little effect on other monsters.
- Regeneration: Thanks to a unique enzyme generated by an organ in his throat, Saramandora has an odd, powerful form of regeneration that allows it to heal small wounds quickly and heal damage in just hours. Not only can he heal wounds, but if his body is destroyed, if just one cell remains, he can regenerate in hours.
- Armored Skin: Saramandora's hide skin is covered in a type of thick armor that is strong enough to resist some energy attacks, like Ultraman 80's energy attacks and the Mebium beam, and can stand up to multiple finisher beams before finally going down, allowing him to survive energy based attacks. However, the area under his jaw isn't protected and if struck can stun Salamandora greatly.
- Rake Tail: At end of Saramandora's tail is flattened and has spikes protruding from it. He can whip foes with great force.
The red spot underneath Saramandora's chin is unprotected and very tender. Attacking it directly causes Saramandora great pain. It will stop Saramandora from regenerating since it is were the enzyme is produced.

text: Hi Guys, Just before I submit my new 67 body to Shutterbox for repair could anyone on APUG suggest a remedy? It's an excellent condition body purchased recently. I put two rolls through it which worked perfectly. Mirror is now locked halfway up. Pressing the battery check, and the red LED doesn't come on. I replaced the battery but still the same. Battery compartment is clean. Body hadn't been dropped, it's a complete mystery. Very upset! Any suggestions?

Fecal contents are propelled in the large intestine by periodic mass movements, as opposed to the more continuous peristalsis of the small intestine.
One predictable mass movement is the gastrocolic reflex, which occurs in association with filling of the stomach. Refers to increased colonic activity, which occurs in the first 30-60 min after a meal.
Modulated by:
Hormonal effects.
Mechanical reflexes. HAMA-SYRIA Complains and complications.
Bowel Function and dysfunction.

8. Gastroesophageal reflux results from chronic overdistention.
9. Increased spasticity ,and
10. Autonomic dysreflexia. INNERVATION Important neural pathways include:
- sympathetic, and
- somatic innervation to the colon, rectum,
and anus.
The intrinsic nervous system, also known as the enteric nervous system ENS, is composed of the submucosal (ie, Meissner) and myenteric (ie, Auerbach) plexuses, which largely regulate segment-to-segment movement of the GI tract. The vagus nerve innervates the upper segments of the GI tract up to the splenic flexure.
The pelvic splanchnic nerves (nervi erigentes) carry parasympathetic fibers from the S2-S4 spinal cord levels to the descending colon and rectum.
The hypogastric nerve sends out sympathetic innervation from the L1, L2, and L3 spinal segments to the lower colon, rectum, and sphincters. The pudendal nerve (S2-S4) provides somatic innervation to the external anal sphincter and pelvic floor.. RECTODYNAMICS
To understand the effects of SCI on bowel evacuation, we designed a test to measure the opposing expulsive and resistive forces at work in the anorectum. We call the test rectodynamics because of its similarity to urodynamics, the study of bladder emptying (Fig. 76-10). Rectodynamics is performed by placing a triple-lumen catheter through the anus so that one pressure-measuring sideport is in the rectum and another is in the high-pressure zone of the anal canal. The third lumen is used to fill a balloon located in the rectum. A concentric EMG needle is placed in the EAS. Rectal and anal pressures, along with external sphincter EMG, are measured at rest and during stimulation of the anorectum by digital stimulation, the Valsalva maneuver, rapid rectal distention (i.e., air is rapidly injected and removed from rectal balloon to elicit the rectoanal inhibitory reflex), and slow, continuous filling of the rectal balloon with saline. To understand the effects of SCI on bowel evacuation,
we do a test to measure the opposing expulsive and resistive forces at work
in the anorectum. THE OBJECTIVE OF MANAGEMENT The goal of bowel care is to train the bowel to evacuate at a
set time each day or,
most commonly every-other-day; thereby preventing constipation or fecal incontinence. Bowel Care Red signals Diarrhea

Bowel function and dysfunction.
Bowel management in neurological cases. Pharmacologic Colonic Stimulants (eg, bisacodyl),tab or supp, also (senna).
Hyperosmolar Agents (sodium phosphate), for short term treatment of constipation.
Osmotic Agents, promote bowel movement by osmotic action that hold water in the small intestine and colon. polyethylene glycol "Mirax", Lactolose. Pharmacologic Bulking Agents (eg, psyllium), absorb water in intestine to form viscous liquid,

Stool Softeners, help keep stools soft for easy passage (eg, docusate sodium, surface active agent(. Suggested protocol
Bowel clean out if stool is present by multiple enemas.
Maintain the stool bulky by using fibers

with innervated adductor longus, gluteus maximus, or other free muscle grafts to replace the puborectalis sling. Use this technique in patients with incomplete motor lesions with some sensation. This technique can lead to some degree of restoration of fecal continence.
Rectal Dyssynergia,
consider myotomy since incomplete relaxation of the internal anal sphincter leads to functional outlet obstruction and may cause dysreflexia in susceptible patients.
may be considered in highly refractory cases or when stool incontinence complicates other problems such as pressure sore management.
(antegrade continence enema [ACE] procedure): The appendix is used as a conduit between the skin and cecum. Enema fluid can be introduced using a catheter. This procedure is used in chronic refractory neurogenic bowel when there is insufficient rectal tone to allow use of rectal enemas.
Appendicocecostomy is used most often in children with spina bifida. SUMMARY Neurogenic bowel dysfunction deeply reduces quality of life and community re-integration.

learning to swim before falling in the pool.
hello everyone;
i DO apologize IN ADVANCE for the (perhaps) stupidity of my question, but i DO confess that i need some guidance:
i am a subscriber of the windows secrets newsletter, and following Fred Langa advice, i created a repair disk for my W7 HP running machine.
every weekend, i use todobackup (the free edition), for my c:\ and e:\ partitions into an external HDD.
i have never experienced a HDD crash (yes folks, im knocking wood), and given that situation, i confess that if and when it occurs, i know i will panic, so please those who might have experienced it, tell me what / which are the steps to follow (because then I will not have this machine accessible to ask for help / guidance).
once booting from the repair disk; then WHAT?
TIA for your help / comments

I would connect the external disk, boot from the CD and see what comes up. You should be able to run todobackup and view the available backups and the internal disks. As long as you can see all these you should be able to successfully restore your machine. Now it'll be OK to reboot into Windows.
cheers, Paul

I'm going to turn this around for you and ask YOU some questions.
You've made an image of your OS, that great I wish everyone did that, but...
*Did you also made a restore disk specifically for the EasUS backup program that you are using.
(a Windows restore disk isn't going to help much when it comes to restoring an EasUS image)
*Have you read up on all the EasUS Todo how to articles?
*Have you read the instructions on how to use the restore disk in the event you actually need to use it?
*Have you tested the restore disk to ensure that you can; access the image, restore the image, & verify the image?
As for that Windows 7 repair disk you've created, have you actually tested it by booting with it to become familiar
with it's UI?
*Is your computer capable of booting to a USB or DVD/CD ROM, have you ever done it before?
*Do you know how to how to successfully boot to a rescue disk of any kind?
*Do you know how to access your BIOS/EUFI to change boot, and other applicable settings?
What are you gonna do in the event you can't restore your image to a new hard drive when/if the old one fails?
(sometimes this happens, and it's happened to me more than once)
*Have you ever done a clean install or it's OEM equivalent?
*Do you have an operating system disk from your computer's manufacture where you could reinstall everything?
*Have you looked into how to go about doing so from the HP website should that need arise?
*Do you have backups of all your programs and data independent of the images you've made.
*Do you know where to download drivers from on the HP website?
If you are unable to answer some of these question then that should be YOUR red flag, telling
you where you need to start/focus on improving your knowledge...and thereby dispelling some of that panic.

Houston Texans, FLAT: The Texans are atop a week division. That simple fact may catch up to them in the playoffs. Six easy games will likely soften the Texans up a bit, and it's something they'll have to work to prevent from happening. The Texans are still one of the best teams in the league, and with the Patriots looking less and less like a Super Bowl contender, it may be up to the Texans to stand up to the Denver Broncos for the AFC crown.
Indianapolis Colts, DOWN: The Colts are putting themselves in a dangerous trap. They have to realize how much they overachieved last year, and they cannot go on thinking that Andrew Luck is a clone of Peyton Manning. The Colts still have big holes on their team, especially on defense, and the Colts seem primed for a disastrous season. Fans that returned to the bad wagon last season may be bailing if things go south.
Jacksonville Jaguars, UP: The Jaguars aren't as bad as everyone thinks they are. That's a fact. The Jaguars have several pieces on defense that can help them stay in games, and even though they don't have a serviceable quarterback, the Jaguars' offense does have some playmakers. In a weak division, the Jaguars may actually be able to be in the running for a wildcard spot late in the year. They won't get it, at least I don't think so, but playing meaningful games late in the year is a realistic goal.
Tennessee Titans, DOWN: The Titans are heading into what could be a lame-duck season. The current regime will be gone if the Titans don't at least post a winning record, and frankly, there's almost no chance that happens. Jake Locker may be the long-term solution for the Titans at quarterback, but Mike Munchak almost certainly won't be the head coach long-term. Essentially 2013 feels like a wasted season for the Titans, unless of course the Titans turn it around quick.

Holistic Colorado Vet Purchases Ownership Share of Locally Made Raw Dog Food Business
Veterinarian Puts Her Money Where Her Mouth Is Vet Advocates Raw Dog Food as The Healthiest Choice
"In my 24 years of experience as a veterinarian, I have recommended many different types of diets for dogs," Jasek said. "I now have no doubt a raw, fresh, meat-based diet is the best thing to feed your dog. And because I so strongly believe that Redbud's Raw is a superior product, I am now a proud new owner of the company."
Redbud's Raw was launched in 2010 by Jim Adams, a local marketing executive, who saw the health benefits a raw diet provided his own dogs.
"I have recommended Dr. Jasek to many, many dog owners because she is a compassionate healer," Adams said. "She brings great credibility to this brand and I'm honored to work with her to bring great health through great food to Colorado dogs."
Terms of the purchase were not made available, but Adams retains some ownership and will remain with Redbud's in an operations capacity. Jasek will become the "face" of Redbud's and will be involved in all aspects of the company's marketing activities. Additionally, Redbud's has added a sales director and controller to the company. The current goal is to align the Redbud's Raw name with Jasek's professional pedigree.
Dr Jasek received her formal education at Colorado State University, including a bachelor's degree in Zoology in 1984, and her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1988. She worked in Idaho and Utah before returning to the Denver, Co area in 2001. She purchased her current practice, Belleview Animal Clinic, in 2003 where she began a transition from traditional veterinary medicine to a more holistic approach.
"All veterinarians are trained in traditional medicine and I followed that path for 16 years," Jasek said. "But, I now offer holistic care as a first-line treatment wherever possible after experiencing the benefits of it myself. I treat the whole dog and great canine health always begins with great nutrition."
Redbud's Raw is based on the premise that dogs are naturally carnivorous (technically they are omnivores) and their digestive systems are designed for the easy digestion of meat, bones, organ meat, and small amounts of vegetables and fruits. Redbud'
In addition to the lines of beef and chicken currently offered, Jasek says Redbud's Raw will unveil new packaging in the next month and two new flavors, turkey and pork.
According to the American Pet Products Association (www.americanpetproducts.org)
Redbud's Raw was named after Adams' longhaired dachshund, Redbud, and his likeness adorns the company logo.

Ginger Meggs Trailer (1982)
"The Movie." 16 December 1982 Comedy, Mystery 100 mins
Ginger Meggs (Paul Daniel) is a young "Dennis the Menace" who first appeared in Australian comic strips in 1921. In this film meant for the pre-teen set, Ginger is constantly getting himself in trouble in spite of his good intentions -- at the same time, he prevaricates, he disobeys his teachers and parents, he skips school, or while in school, fights it out with the bullies -- all activities that are bound to capture the attention of children who can vicariously enjoy the forbidden behavior.

Halloween Wreaths
These are the Halloween wreaths I have available in my Etsy shop. My picture quality lacks a lot. I promise I'm working on that. I had no idea when I began creating wreaths that I would also have to master photography. I will take better pictures when I can and replace these. These just don't do the wreaths justice. You could say I'm a work in progress…………
Fall Wreaths
Just wanted to share some of my latest wreaths. I'm working on football, fall, Halloween and Christmas. I'm excited about the upcoming Allardt Pumpkin Festival that is held in our local community each year. I will have a booth at this years event which will be my first time. This is a huge event for us which includes a giant pumpkin weigh off, a beauty contest, costume contests, auto show, singing, lots of vendors and a parade. I'm sure I've missed something, there is so much to see and do. It is one of my favorite events of the year.

Some of my favorite Craft from Pinterest
I've learned so much about crafts since I joined Pinterest. I thought I would share some of the "pins" that have taught me how to do multiple crafts. Until now I believed it required a lot of talent. But if I can do it so can you. Take a look and maybe you will find something you can create. Just have fun with it.
Ice Storm 2015
I've not been able to post for the past few weeks. It's been eventful. For several years we have been very fortunate in Tennessee during the winters we have had very little snow. However, this year we have experienced the worst ice storm I've ever saw. Electric was out in several counties and has taken more than a week for some homes to have electric restored. Our home was without electric for five days. Some homes in surrounding counties still do not have electric. While we still have ice on the ground and it is treacherous walking outside, we are looking forward to warmer weather next week and hopefully all the ice will melt before another cold front comes through. I expect it will take most of our summer to clean up the damage from downed trees and broken limbs on our property. These are just a few of the pictures I took while we were "iced in".
Chemo Blessing Bags
There are only two ways to live your life.: Chemo Care Package Ideas and Chemo Tips.
My daughter, Kara, regularly visits the cancer clinic at Vanderbilt Hospital in Nashville. We have been brainstorming different ways to show God's love while she is there. Now my son-in-law, Frank, usually finds someone to minister to while he waits in the lobby and turns these visits into ministry opportunities. He has a precious heart and can minister to strangers like no one I've ever known. Kara has such a compassionate heart and loves to minister thru "acts of kindness" She wanted to minister to the cancer patients she meets in the cancer clinic so I found this link and decided this was perfect for her trips.
Now, I seldom get to go with her to these appointments but I wanted to join with them in this ministry. While, I can't go, I can join with them by purchasing the items and preparing the bags. God will "use" all of us in different ways to get His message of love to the world. We don't all have the same talents and abilities but when we team up with others that have the same heart we can accomplish great things for God. I encourage you to team up with others to share God's love in this same way in your community.
I edited the "BLESSING BAG FOR YOU" so we could place one in these bags too.
She will be visiting next week so we are off to get our "Chemo Blessing Bags" ready.
February 5, 2015
Hi everybody,
I have had several special orders this week for wreaths. I plan to work my fingers to the bone this weekend so I can get them all completed. Since I have a full-time job I can't get them finished as quickly as I like. Hopefully, in the future I will be able to make this my full-time job. I want to let everyone know how much I appreciate your support and will enjoy designing a wreath especially for you. If you have a certain color that you would like me to see feel free to comment.

A philologist, critic, essayist, and translator of Japanese, Grigory Chkhartishvili (better known under his penname, Boris Akunin) published his first detective stories in 1998 and has already become one of the most widely read authors in Russia. His latest novel, Aristonomia, is a departure from his usual genre and, according to the author himself, his most important work to date. The historic events that took place in Russia during the February and October revolutions of 1917 and the subsequent Civil War serve as a canvas for this meditation on the importance of personal dignity. Chkhartishvili has also penned several non-fiction books, most importantly, "A Writer and Death". Author and Editor Keith Gessen interviews Chkhartishvili about his life and work.
This program is supported in part with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.

Can't add a Server to the DAG that's in another site
I was working in my lab testing out Exchange 2013 and I ran into an issue that stopped me from adding servers in another site to my DAG. I was able to resolve the issue and thought it might help other people that still use and love TMG!
Here's a little bit of detail about my lab.
I had a DAG in London that I wanted to add the members in Redmond to. I have four networks, two used for MAPI and two used for replication. The TMG was serving as the router/firewall between the two locations. I had an Access Rule that allowed All Outbound traffic to travel between the two locations on both networks since they are on a private WAN. I also had a route configured on the TMG to route the two MAPI and REPL networks.
I was running into an issue when trying to add the Redmond nodes. The error I was getting was:
A server-side database availability group administrative operation failed. Error Windows Failover Clustering timed out while trying to validate server 'RED-15EXCH01'. If this is in a disjoint DNS namespace, the DNS suffixes for all servers in the database availability group must be present on every server..
I wasn't running a disjoined namespace, DNS was working, and my network cards were configured correctly so I assumed it had to be something with the TMG server since I could add nodes that were in the same site.
To resolve the issue I modified the access rule between the two MAPI networks.
Go to the Properties of the Access Rule and click on the Protocols tab and click on Filtering button and select Configure RPC protocol.
Under that you should see a check box. Uncheck it and then save and publish your config.
After making that change I was able to add all nodes to the DAG.
I know TMG is discontinued, and I'm very sad about that, but I still use it in my lab cause I miss it so much!
I hope this helps and if you have any questions, please add a comment.

Big Names Announced For Tolpuddle Festival
10:57am 25th June 2012
There'll be some big name speakers appearing at this year's Tolpuddle Martyrs Festival.
Newsnight Economic Editor Paul Mason, author Louise Raw, columnist and writer Owen Jones will all be holding sessions at the two day event in July.
They'll also be an appearance from former General Secretary of the TUC Lord John Monks.
In 1834 six farm workers from Dorset were arrested for fighting against starvation wages and forming a union. Since 1934 a rally has celebrated their sacrifice and the campaign that freed them and over the last few years a History School has taken place to explore not only the background to the Tolpuddle Martyrs story, but also to look at social and working history in general.
The event takes place in the rural village of Tolpuddle in Dorset and runs from 1 p.m. on July 12th finishes at 12 noon on July 14th, just as the Tolpuddle Martyrs' Festival gets into full swing. Tickets are £25. You can apply on line at www.tolpuddlemartyrs.org.uk

Unanswered: The Mystery of Record Locking
I'm hoping there is actually a fix and this doesn't become another "that's the way it is" scenario.
Heres the setup: Access 97, multi-user, split into Front end and Back end, both on the server. The database is set to default, optimistic record locking.
3 tables, 1 master and two child - nothing out of the ordinary.
1 query to put them together (the master table has a department code, linked to the department name in the child table. Ditto for a Type Code)
2 forms.
The first form is a lookup only. Both the form and query are set to Snapshot and No Locks. The form is set to no add, no delete, but allow edits (although all bound controls are locked and disabled, edits are required to allow the user to select a value from a combo box and enter search strings in unbound controls).
The second form is an Add/Edit form. This form is unbound. It uses Recordsets to make the changes it opens the table as dynaset, makes the change, updates it and then closes it, which occurs when the Update button is pressed the table is not held open for more than the time to execute the code (< 1 second).
Heres what happens. User #1 opens the program, uses the Lookup. Meanwhile, User #2 goes in and makes a change to a record. User #1 tries to exit, but gets a No Memory error and is unable to close the Lookup form. User #2 closes the Add/Edit form and User #1 still can not close the Lookup form. User #2 completely exists the program, and then User #1 can finally close the Lookup form.
It actually doesnt require 2 users, 1 user can duplicate the problem by opening two instances on their PC.
Although the reported error is consistently No Memory some late night attempts to figure out the problem revealed an underlying problem. If the problem is duplicated in development mode (full windows, full menus, etc.) the Record locked by user So and So, can not save at this time error precedes the No Memory error.
I tried to fix by requery the recordset before closing it. I tried by requery the form just prior to closing it. Either the recold is remaining locked or the form is not recognizing the record was unlocked. Either way, the Lookup form is not intended to save data (and in fact the data can not be changed since all bound controls are disabled). I can trap the error but it will not let the form close, trapped or not, using code or the close button.
What can I do?

When I do a "lookup" form in that scenario, I use unbound controls which I populate with data using Visual Basic and OpenRecordsets.
The best method I've found for multiuser database applications is to create a workspace table on the backend which is essentially a replica of the table in question with an added field, which can be used to store a unique value, such as the User Name or the ComputerName (I use the ComputerName, myself).
Then I set the RecordSource for the front end form to something like:
SELECT * FROM wrkspcTable WHERE wrkspcTable.UniqueKey=ComputerName();
* Note: the above example assumes that you have a function called ComputerName that retrieves the ComputerName from the Windows Registry.
Next, in the form's Open event, I populate the workspace table with data from the main table along with the designated unique key value (i.e. the ComputerName).
Finally, to save any of the work from the workspace table, I create a Command Button on the form which calls a Visual Basic function to pass back the changes to the main table.
For example, let's say I have a BE-FE database, and in the back-end a table called JobLog, and a table called JobLog_Temp. The fields are defined thus:
In the front end I have links to these two tables, and a form to view/edit the data, with a RecordSource: SELECT * FROM JobLog WHERE ComputerID=ComputerName();
I open a form. The form's open event performs an insert query something like this:
"INSERT INTO JobLog_Temp ( ComputerID, JobID, JobDescription, JobDate, JobNotes) SELECT ComputerName(), JobID, JobDescription, JobDate, JobNotes FROM JobLog WHERE JobID='Criteria';"
Since the form only pulls back records which are unique to the ComputerName, the only records I can view/edit are those specific to my machine.
I close the form. The form's close event deletes the old records from the JobLog Table with the matching JobID and then appends the records back from the workspace, matching only my machine.
In a multi-user scenario, with two users opening the same form, the JobLog_Temp table might contain data something like this:
ComputerID | JobID | JobDescription | JobDate | JobNotes
Machine1 | 123 | Repair | 4/1/2004 | Took too long
Machine2 | 124 | Repair | 4/1/2004 | Took even longer
In this example, there are two records in the JobLog_Temp table. However, Machine1 can only view/edit the first record, and Machine2 can only view/edit the second record. Thus, there is no danger of a recordlock conflict.
Even if both machine's were to view the same order, something like this:
ComputerID | JobID | JobDescription | JobDate | JobNotes
Machine1 | 123 | Repair | 4/1/2004 | Took too long
Machine2 | 123 | Repair | 4/1/2004 | Took too long
What transpires on one machine will not adversely affect activity on the other machine. This is because each machine is working with, in effect, a replica of the original recordset, with Machine1 only working with the Machine1-tagged records, and Machine2 only working with Machine2-tagged records. Thus there is no overlapping of efforts.
The only risk of recordlocking can occur if both users close the form at the same time and both machines attempt to modify the matching records in the main table. This risk is surprisingly small, however.
This is a somewhat simplified portrayal of the way I design my multi-user database apps in Access. The application of such is a little more complex, but I'm sure this gives a basic idea.
So, all rambling aside, what was I trying to say again?... Oh yes. If you try this approach with your forms, you might find a better way to accomplish what you are trying to do with your current two forms, and you might altogether eliminate the crash-scenario you are currently facing. If you wish to discuss these methods in more detail, feel free to drop me a line in Email.

BENNINGTON -- Once a scammer convinces a victim to send their money overseas, it's gone. But at least one company is striking back on behalf of its customers.
Because the scammers operate outside the U.S., it is difficult if not impossible for local law enforcement to go after them. Police have instead taken to trying to increase public awareness of scams and how to avoid them.
And to aid that effort, Western Union temporarily shut down its money transfer stations in St. James Parish, Jamaica, in an effort to hamper a group believed to be operating a lottery scam out of the Montego Bay area.
FairPoint Communications praised the move Friday, saying companies with services being used by scammers have the power to "strike back" at them, and cited FairPoint's "Beware: Scams from Area Code 876" campaign as another example.
The campaign was launched in March and includes a Website "
," which includes a list of tips on spotting scams and contact numbers to report them. The 876 area code has been associated with the lottery scam, where the scammers target elderly people, telling them they've won a lottery but need to send money in order to collect it.
Mike Smith, FairPoint's Vermont president, said the company has been working with law enforcement agencies in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine to get the word out about this particular scam, and others.
"Law enforcement has said, once you send the money, it's gone," Smith said, adding that there has been a task force assigned to work with Jamaican law enforcement to go after thieves where they live, but the most effective tools now appear to be public education.
He said where the awareness campaign has really hit a nerve is the children of elderly parents who are concerned their loved ones will fall for a scam. He said FairPoint, upon request, can block international calls to certain numbers, or even block specific area codes, to prevent scammers from making a pitch to susceptible people.
Smith said scammers can be very persuasive, even threatening violence. "These people are particularly vicious," he said. "They are heartless criminals intent on destroying lives."
He said reports of scams have come from all over Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.
FairPoint spokeswoman Sabina Haskell said there have been reports of scams from Bennington and Readsboro, but did not have the specific numbers available Friday.
The amounts of money being taken are not small, said Smith. He cited figures released by Vermont Attorney General William Sorrell's office that show some in Vermont have lost as much as $18,000. Other individuals in other New England states have reported losses as high as $140,000. It total, estimates regarding the Jamaican scam indicate they are stealing $300 million a year, which is up from the $30 million it is estimated they got in 2009.
According to FairPoint, the lottery scam works like this: A person, typically a senior, will get a call from the 876 area code. Many mistake it for a toll-free number. They are told they've won a lottery or some other prize, then are asked to send a fee as high as $4,000 for the winnings to be processed. The scammers claim a representative is in the area who will deliver the check, and have been known to use Google Earth to identify local landmarks to make themselves more convincing.
They are asked to send money via Western Union, Green Dot Card, or some other services. Some are even told to send it in cash, slipping the bills into magazine pages.
According to Larry Caruso, FairPoint senior manager of security, scammers will ask the victim to keep their winnings secret from family members. If they manage the scam once, they then double-up their efforts to get as much from that person as they can, including access to bank and identity information.

Feeling a little unbalanced?
Here is a sample of sound bowl music for you to enjoy. Grab your headphones, relax and feel in tune!
Hi, I'm Nigel Rowles
Welcome to Feel in Tune,
I am a professional musician with more than 30 years experience teaching music and playing in bands. My first sound bowl massage was a life changing experience. I'd never felt so deeply relaxed within minutes of lying down. Four weeks later I was on a plane to Kathmandu to begin my training with Himalayan masters.
In Nepal I spent many hours hand selecting a set of eight tuned bowls. Eight bowls make a diatonic octave, the lowest bowl being C. This allows me to play up to six different chord structures, both major and minor in tonality. By using the bowls to create chords, I can create a greater number of harmonised frequencies which results in increased health benefits.
Sound bowls are so effective at creating a sense of deep calm, because the body is largely made up of water. Sound travels through water five times better than through air. A pebble dropped into a still body of water produces concentrically spreading ripples as every molecule of water is set in motion. Something similar happens when we strike a sound bowl.
The rich sounds we hear and feel when the bowls are placed on or around the body, are a succession of frequencies that resonate in concentrically swelling sound waves, penetrating every cell of the body. Sound bowl balancing is quite literally a massage at the cellular level.
Think of the body as an orchestra.
If an instrument is out of tune, we feel off key and unbalanced.
Modern physics tells us that everything in the universe is in a perpetual state of vibration. From the cellular structure of an atom, to our organs, to the objects that surround us, everything in the universe vibrates and produces sound, whether we can hear it or not. The world literally resonates at audible and inaudible frequencies.
Our bodies vibrate at many different frequencies. When our body and its parts are vibrating in rhythmic harmony, we are 'in tune.'
In today's fast paced world, it's easy to resonate out of tune. When our vibrations are not aligned, we feel off beat. Too many discordant frequencies can affect our wellbeing, creating stress, anxiety and disease.
Sound bowls vibrate our frequencies back into balance and make mind, body and soul feel in tune.
Sound Bowls vibrate out of tune Frequencies into Balance. Happy Harmonies Create Happiness for Mind, Body & Soul.
In my journey with metastatic breast cancer, I have searched many healing modalities and practices, and I feel that Nigel's skillful healing with the bowls is one of the best I have experienced.
Stress is one of today's leading causes of disease. Since everything in the universe vibrates at its own frequency, stress and disease result when our frequencies are out of sync.
The deep sounds of the sound bowls resonate through the body, aligning out of tune frequencies, creating a deep sense of calm and relaxation.
Sound bowl balancing can take us into the Theta range of brainwaves, the second lowest of the five recognised brainwaves. It is in this stage, which is akin to light sleep or a deep meditative state, that we can experience a deep sense of peace and oneness.
Many of my clients have reported a sense of feeling held in a safe space, of being inside a comforting cocoon of stillness, where tensions melt naturally and negative thoughts and anxieties can be released.
Surrendering to a state of deep relaxation, we become more aware of ourselves as we experience mind, body and soul coming into alignment.
Quietening the busy mind helps us focus on the natural rhythm of the body. For many of my clients, this means feeling in touch with the inner self, often for the first time in many years. Some have described it as becoming tuned to the inner voice of wisdom and insight, our intuitive and creative sides, that are so easily drowned out by the busyness of life.
Sound bowls synchronise the brainwaves in both hemispheres, resulting in clearer focus, insight and calm. Balanced brainwaves provide access to the left and right hemispheres of the brain, stimulating our creativity.

Kurt Vile & The Violators
Angel Olsen, Steve Gunn
Union Transfer
1026 Spring Garden St.
Philadelphia, PA, 19123
Doors 8:00 PM / Show 8:30 PM
This event is all ages
Kurt Vile (real name) has slowly, quietly become one of the great American guitarists and songwriters of our time. Kurt was born in 1980, one of ten children, and raised in the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia. As a teenager, his bluegrass-loving father gifted him with a banjo, when what Kurt craved was a guitar – so he played it as if it were.
Bewitched by lo-fi figureheads like Beck, Pavement, and Smog, along with a love for classics like Petty, Creedence, and Neil Young, he recorded his first songs and self-distributed them on CD-R between 2003 and 2007. These were compiled on 2008's Constant Hitmaker and the 2009 mini-album God Is Saying This To You… The dreamy and psychedelic tangles of damaged but still-lyrical songcraft announced a major new artist wandering in from the hinterlands.
The Violators (then featuring Adam Granduciel, with whom Vile had co-founded The War On Drugs) debuted on the 2009 EP The Hunchback, coming into their own on Childish Prodigy, Vile's third album and his first for Matador. More violent, more vivid, more ecstatically 'rock' than anything in Vile's catalogue, the album was a righteous leap forward. The album that followed, the breakthrough Smoke Ring For My Halo, was more reflective, something sun-dappled and sexy in softly strung-out strums like "Peeping Tomboy," the kindred flipside to barnstormers like "Freak Train" off the previous record.
His fifth album, Wakin On A Pretty Daze, is a 69-minute double LP and Kurt's defining statement to date. Where previous albums alternated between gorgeous fingerpicking and heavy guitar workouts, this album blends the two in dreamy, expansive songs that gradually unfurl like a massive flag. It is a record that would have sounded great 30 years ago, sounds great today, and will still sound great 30 years from now.
Many of the superlatives describing Angel Olsen refer to how seemingly little it takes for her to leave an audience speechless, even spellbound. But Olsen has never been as timid as those descriptors imply, and the noisy, fiery hints in her earlier work find a fuller expression on her newest LP, Burn Your Fire for No Witness. Here, Olsen sings with full-throated exultation, admonition, and bold, expressive melody. Also, with the help of producer John Congleton, her music now crackles with a churning, rumbling low end and a brighter energy.
Angel Olsen began singing as a young girl in St. Louis, where she explored the remarkable range of her voice and the places it could take her songwriting. Her self-released debut EP, "Strange Cacti," belied both that early period of discovery and her Midwestern roots. Cautious and homespun on the one hand, the EP transported us to a mystical, unrecognizable world on the other, and it garnered extensive praise for its enigmatic beauty. Olsen then went further on Half Way Home, her first full-length album (released on Bathetic Records), which mined essential themes while showcasing a more developed voice. Olsen dared to be more personal.
After extensive touring, Olsen eventually settled for a time in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood, where she created "a collection of songs grown in a year of heartbreak, travel, and transformation." The new songs go on to tell us to leave, or to high-five a lover who is lacking, or to dance our way up and out of sorrow. Many of them also remain essentially unchanged from their bare beginnings. In leaving them so intact, a more self-assured Olsen is opening up to us, allowing us to be in the room with her at the very genesis of these songs, when the thread of creation is most vulnerable and least filtered. Our reward for entering this room are many head-turning moments and the powerful, unsettling recognition of ourselves in the weave of her songs.
This act of meaning-making recurs as a theme throughout the album, as the sublimating response to the power of negativity. In the song, "Stars", for example, Olsen wishes to "have the voice of everything" and in a moment of hatefulness and hurt realizes that the strength of fury results in the power she had been seeking all along. Thankfully for us, Olsen has decided to channel a lot of this newfound power into the ethereal, hypnotic performances of her new and revealing songs, sharing with us the full grace and beauty of her transformative moments.
People have written about roads for as long as they've been around. And before there were roads, they still wrote about travel and about landscape. Landscape is the stage upon which our greatest experiences and desires play out. Steve Gunn's music has always embraced expanse and movement. It springs from the simple and profound relationship between humans and their environment. Eyes On The Lines is his most explicit ode to the blissful uncertainty of adventure yet.
Gunn's roots in the underground run deep, from his days in GHQ to his collaborations with Black Twig Pickers and Mike Cooper. He's toured and recorded with Michael Chapman, and released two remarkable duo albums with drummer John Truscinski. His solo ventures, emerging over the past decade and culminating most recently the highly-acclaimed Way Out Weather, have been pastoral, evocative affairs. Here he embraces his urban surroundings through a series of songs that fully showcase his extraordinary ability to match hooks to deftly constructed melodies. Gunn is a consummate guitarist, that rare fingerpicker who can harness the enigma of the American Primitive vernacular without lazily regurgitating it. His playing is inventive and full of personality. His instrumental virtuosity calls upon a vast library of technical skills at will, but he's never showy — his riffs and runs are always in the service of the song at hand.
And what a pleasure to have this music presented to the wider public.
This song cycle melds thoughtful inquisitiveness with poetic reflection, fully embracing rhythmic uplift, allowing personal stories and impressions to live their own lives on their own terms. Gunn is more narrator than diarist; he pours real-life moments and real-life people into vibrant and evocative tales. Dreams and encounters spiral out – they form their own dramas and illuminate their own truths. Indeed, Eyes On The Lines works like a book of the finest short stories, its songs interlocking with an urgent necessity, forming an ever-questioning whole. In Gunn's own words: "The music isn't about me. It's about characters, either real or fictional. It's about images."
And what are lines if not one of the foundational aspects of images? Lines on the road draw one's attention to the lines comprising the landscape. Gunn's music runs ahead and twists – like time, like the road itself. Guitar lines are highway lines are lines carved by the view out the window are the lines one waits in to get a quick meal on the way from one destination to another are lines one draws in the van to stay amused. It's good to be out on the road and it's good to be home, and each feeds into the other. This record sees lines run together and leap across one another.
He's honest about the necessity of being comfortable in being lost. His music values the unknown, so it is always born of the present. We lose ourselves to find ourselves. With all of this comes humility. And gratitude. Listen to "Nature Driver," a statement of thankfulness for the generosity of the plethora of kind souls who welcome travelers into their homes.
"Ancient Jules," which opens the record, is a travel fantasy of a different sort. Built around a head-nodding motif, the song bobs and weaves its way through a tale which foregrounds the surprising joy that can come with a break – a deep sigh in the midst of an onrush, punctuated by the finest example of Gunn's electric soloing to emerge yet. A song like "Conditions Wild" also rambles through strange clouds of roving. Interlocking strings, percussion, and vocals join in an irrepressible rush. This record is like that – the songs get lodged in one's head because they're catchy, but their atmosphere sends the mind reeling into memory and mystery.
These are songs you can take in quickly, but spend all the time in the world devouring. The very large and the very small are present in equal measure. The inability to categorize them within the avalanche of impotent diatribes that pass for categorization is a testament to their power.
Stories give us ways to discover meaning. They provide us with signposts – when we recognize our own lives within them, we clarify our existence. "Far from the world is the mystic fool," Gunn sings on the opening track. The fool may be far from the world, but that doesn't matter. The so-called fool is jacked in to the cosmos.
