We'll have highs in the 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s over the next week!
A low-pressure system will bring mostly rain tonight through tomorrow. Cold air will try to return just in time to turn the light rain to snow flurries late Tuesday. At this time, it looks like whatever snow we get will not accumulate. The map below shows the GFS trying to keep a little snow around tomorrow evening, on the other hand, the NAM weather model has most of the precipitation out of here before the cold air arrives.
A few more flurries with chilly air still in place for Thursday, then it's a weekend warm-up. We're hoping for 60s by Sunday! The map below shows those nice warm colors moving northward!

General Steel Holdings Inc (NYSE:GSI)
The Company through its subsidiary, is engaged in the manufacturing of hot-rolled steel sheets used in the construction of small agricultural and vehicles.
Company is clearly well connected. The Chairman (YU) traveled to US with Prime Minister in January. Their Longmen venture is essentially a partnership with a government enterprise where they get the capital for free, cheaper raw materials and 60% of the profits. They just reported .05 earnings for the first quarter, clearly on the rise. Steel prices are going up in China, their margins are increasing, their production volume is increasing. So, realistically, .20 per share for the year looks very attainable and, based on the fact that they just start benefitting from the Longmen venture, in the 2ndQ, would not be surprised to see north of $.25/sh for the year. Chairman is a major holder of the stock (CNBC says 39%).
Finally, while I have been concerned that some Chinese companies seem to be making their numbers up out of thin air, GSI just switched auditors to Price Waterhouse Coopers, which (to me) adds a layer of credibility to what they report.

The biggest, busiest film the Coen brothers had created at the time, The Hudsucker Proxy found the team working with their largest budget and most oversized canvas to date, and meeting with an indifference they couldn't have anticipated. Past detractors had dismissed Coen efforts like Blood Simple and Miller's Crossing as exercises in pastiche, synthesizing found elements into a new contraption. Hudsucker Proxy fits firmly in that mold, but such charges matter only if you view them as flaws. Those who see matters otherwise should find Hudsucker thrilling through and through. Though clearly delighted with a budget to accommodate their wildest visual notions, the Coens nonetheless never let their vision get ahead of them, incorporating it all into re-creating a corporate America in the grips of the postwar economic boom, at once giddy and insecure with newfound prosperity. Into this world, they drop a sly reworking of Frank Capra's Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, and if their New York has an even meaner edge to it than Capra's, the film still ends up subscribing to the same endorsement of common decency and critique of urban elitism (with more than a few digs at heartless capitalism thrown in for good measure). Being a Coen film, decency comes embodied by a big lug, played by Tim Robbins, whose own obvious intelligence has never prohibited him from excelling at playing thick-skulled protagonists. He's nicely matched by Jennifer Jason Leigh as a jaded reporter, whose ability to convey real humanity beneath layers of mannerisms may make her the ideal Coen heroine.

The Hex Lord is a Healer Skilltest. If the healers dont know their job you will fail on this one.
As a Priest before the AoE comes set the Prayer of Mending on yourself. If you have 2 Priests with you put them into different groups.
After POM cast your biggest group heal you have, recast again, otherwise after the 4th or 5th AoE people will die in your group.
After the AoE is done bring everyone to 100%. If you don't they will die with the next AoE he does.
If you have a Warlock let him distribute his healstones (no idea how they are called in english). Tell everyone to take those ONLY on command. The Healer should give that command (usually with the 4th or 5th AoE)
Its a tough boss but since we put some tricks out we down him real fast even with new people along.

BLACKFOOT — The Blackfoot Community Players' production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" opens tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Nuart Theatre.
The production will run Feb. 25, 26 and 28 and March 1, 4, 5 and 7. Tickets for opening night are $5, with tickets all other nights $7.
The popular musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice—who also collaborated on "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Evita"—has a family-friendly storyline, universal themes and catchy music.
Magistrate Judge Charles Roos ruled Thursday that the juvenile facing two charges of misdemeanor battery from incidents that occurred during the basketball season last year at Blackfoot High School cannot be found guilty because the state had not met it's burden of proof.
BLACKFOOT — The juvenile defendant facing charges relating to incidents that occurred during the basketball season last year at Blackfoot High School appeared in court Wednesday for an evidentiary hearing before Magistrate Judge Charles Roos.
By LESLIE MIELKE
BLACKFOOT — At least 75 teachers, parents and students rallied for an hour Monday in support of Idaho teachers and educators and in opposition to Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Luna's "Students Come First" plan.
Teachers stood with signs on the east and west corners of Meridian and Judicial from about 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Participants were greeted with plenty of horns honking from drivers who drove past.
FIRTH –Jason Clemens' only teaching assignment so far has been teaching agricultural education in Firth. Clemens is also the advisor for the Firth Future Farmers of America (FFA).
Clemens grew up in Ontario, Ore., graduating from high school there. He attended the University of Idaho, graduating with a degree in agricultural education in May 2000. In the fall of that year, Clemens accepted the job of Ag teacher at Firth High School.
So why did you chose agricultural education?
BLACKFOOT — Three individuals have been cited with misdemeanor possession or sale of a synthetic cannabinoid after police issued a search warrant at a local merchant.
The Blackfoot Police Department received information that Hecho en Mexico, located at 1010 W. Bridge St. Ste. K, and served a search warrant at that location. As a result of the search warrant, more than 200 containers of "spice" retailing for around $3,200 were recovered.
BLACKFOOT — A trial has been scheduled for Anthony Clarke, one of the five individuals charged with misdemeanor offenses from incidents that allegedly occurred during the basketball season last year at Blackfoot High School.
The pretrial conference for Clarke was rescheduled after neither Clarke nor his attorney Dean Brandstetter were present at the first scheduled pretrial. At that time Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Randy Smith said they were near reaching a plea agreement but had yet to meet in person with Clarke, who is attending Boise State University.
BLACKFOOT — The trials for two of the five former Blackfoot High School athletes charged with various misdemeanors stemming from incidents that occurred last year during the basketball season will not be moved, pending the outcome of a jury selection scheduled for today.
Jury voir dire will occur today for Nathan Walker's trial. Walker is charged with five counts of misdemeanor false imprisonment and one count of aiding and abetting.
"We already have 100 prospective jurors coming in," Roos said. "I think it's best, since we have already summoned those people in, we make the attempt."
BLACKFOOT — Members of Boy Scout Troop 202 in Blackfoot took part in a flag retirement ceremony Tuesday evening.
Michael Prudhomme headed this project to complete his Eagle Scout project.
"When flags are no longer in any condition to be displayed, a flag retirement ceremony is conducted," Prudhomme said.
Prudhomme explained the design of the flag.
BLACKFOOT — The Blackfoot City Council plans to discuss a new synthetic drug called "bath salts" at tonight's meeting at 7 p.m. at City Hall.
Councilman Chris Jensen said he plans to discuss a possible ban on the new drug, which is starting to be seen in Blackfoot.
The Idaho Legislature is seeking to ban "bath salts," but Jensen said he would like to see a pre-emptive strike against the substance in Blackfoot. The House bill was introduced Feb. 8, but has been in the Judiciary, Rules and Administration Committee since. If passed, the ban would go into effect immediately.

Unafraid of Americans:
An Interview with Ramin Bahrani
by Michael Joshua Rowin
A maddeningly contrived new cinematic category is upon us: "neo-neorealism," (what's next, "neo-neo-neorealism?"), coined by A.O. Scott in a recent Sunday New York Times Magazine (over-)think piece that attempts to point out a new trend in low-budget independent American films shot on location and centered on proletariat characters played by nonprofessional actors. I can't say the evidence isn't entirely compelling in films like Wendy and Lucy and the upcoming Sugar, but it runs into a complex case with Goodbye Solo, the third and latest film from Iranian-American director Ramin Bahrani. Though it features beautiful attention to the local detail of Bahrani's native North Carolina and a wonderfully compassionate performance by newcomer Souléymane Sy Savané as a concerned and beleaguered cab driver who looks out for an older passenger who plans to kill himself, Solo eventually reaches for the transcendent with an ending that confronts man with the elemental forces of nature in a scene that's realistic while looking beyond the mortal plane. It's a stunning example of Bahrani's allegiance to a cinema of "two truths living at the same time," this from a cinephile director who has refused the neorealist (or neo-neorealist) label while fully conscious of his debt to the lessons of Rossellini and De Sica.
Reverse Shot: You state in the press notes for Goodbye Solo that "Solo's compassion towards this elderly man matches his cultural background as it does my parents' Iranian heritage." What do you mean by that?
Ramin Bahrani: In Iranian culture there aren't really assisted living homes or nursing homes per se. Usually your parents or your elderly relatives—depending on what the situation is—will also live at home, and you'll take care of them. So specifically I was referring to old age and people needing help. And in general, I mean that there's a certain respect for the elderly. If this were Iran and if someone our age or older came through that door, we would stand up. There's a certain formal respect paid to someone older than you that is not as common in American culture. In fact, here we tend to have an obsession with youth that is becoming a global one—which Kundera talks about in Immortality—and I think it's becoming a dangerous one.
Senegalese or African culture is similar in that way. Souléymane said something great when we were doing rehearsals and he was trying to get into his character—that in his culture there's an aural tradition of history and storytelling, when an elderly person dies it's like a library burning down. And so it just doesn't make sense for Solo to stand by and let this happen.
That being said, I think there's more to Solo's character than just that. He's not only a sincerely optimistic and friendly, open guy, but he also needs William even if he doesn't know it. Unconsciously William's determination to do what he wants to do is something Solo doesn't have in his own life, where he's getting pulled and pushed in all different directions.
RS: Parent-child relationships are a major focus of your films, but the way Solo's relationship with his stepdaughter Alex echoes William's with his estranged grandson, and also Solo's relationship with William, seems especially important and complex.
RB: Yeah, it's interesting that Solo connects with both William and Alex, and I think that's because they're both independent. Alex is the only person in Solo's life who loves him and doesn't bother him about it. She never says, "I love you, why don't you need help, come back right now, you're selfish," which everybody else seems to say to him. With William, I think it's important to clarify his relationship to his grandson, which relates to Solo's relationship with William and Alex. William's not a bad guy. He's not a mean guy. He's a man who's smart enough to know he can't get close to these people before he kills himself. And that's why he's often cruel to Solo, because Solo wants to get into William's life to change his mind, because he needs him to practice for his exam, for many reasons, and William doesn't want this. Solo's not making it any easier for him, he's making it harder. That's important to understand the shading of this character, and it's the same as in Solo's character that he needs William. And it's this same mentality that allows Solo to tell his wife with his newborn baby, "I love you, and I'm going to take care of you. But you have to let me do what I want to do."
RS: Your characters have always lived among objects and environments that serve as metaphors for their existence—for example, the cart that Ahmad must constantly drag through the streets in Man Push Cart or Shea Stadium's looming shadow over Ale in Chop Shop—but Goodbye Solo seems to be your first film to really take that concept to a mystical or transcendent place with the fog enshrouded mountain that Solo and William climb at the end of the film to meet their respective fates.
RB: It's the reason I decided to make the film. I had Solo's character, I had William's character, I had them in a taxi, I had the idea of a suicide, but the movie wasn't there until I decided the ending would be in Blowing Rock. I had known that location since I had been a kid. I knew I'd shoot in autumn with the explosion of color, and I hoped for the fog that often comes. It wasn't until I had that location that I knew the film would still have a chance to be something. That ending is critical, the whole film is the ending, that's what it's about, and that location—it wouldn't have worked anywhere else.
The entire emotional build-up of the film culminates in a man looking at a stick. With some trees and some clouds and a bunch of wind sounds. That couldn't happen in a book or a play. That's important. It's important with the stick, with the wind, in regard to airplanes and Solo's dream of getting on a plane that's like a stick in the sky, it's important that he's been on the ground and trapped by a taxi. And [director of photography] Michael Simmonds's work doesn't really open up—by choice—until the end where suddenly there's a vast landscape. Suddenly the characters feel a little bit more free, where previously they had been trapped.
I got the fog that I dreamed about. There's something spiritual and atheistic about it in the same moment. It's like the life Alex brings to the ending even though we know William's going to die. This combination of life and death was my conception of the film from the beginning, that the film would end with Solo smiling and crying in one moment, leaving the audience feeling extremely hopeful and extremely sad at once. That the audience will have accepted death but enjoyed wanting to live.
I would say that I always wanted the film to end with a close up of his face, but there needed to be one more shot. All three of my films believe utmost in the importance of a person's actions toward another person. I believe in that more than anything, but I also believe that the landscapes remain before and after. And that's why the landscape in the end goes on for so long. It's before and after Solo, William, Alex, no matter how important they think their decisions are, they also have to accept that they're not important at all. That's not a contradiction, by the way. They're two truths living at the same time.
RS: A colleague thought he saw traces of Bergman's influence in this final scene, especially since he's a director for whom you've expressed great admiration. It got me thinking about films like Winter Light, where environment is so important in shaping and commenting on character.
RB: I can't say no, because I love Bergman. You hit upon Winter Light, which will probably be more clearly there in a different project I'm working on. If it's there in Goodbye Solo I wasn't thinking about it, but I can't deny it's an important film for me. Since Man Push Cart Michael Simmonds and I talk less and less about films while we're working, but The Flowers of St. Francis was very important to this film. That's my favorite Rossellini film and I remember seeing it at the MoMA retrospective a couple of years ago while I was finishing Chop Shop and writing the script for Solo. I remember walking with Michael Simmonds and telling him Rossellini made Francis because at the end of World War II he felt like the world needed Francis. And we were talking at the height of the Iraq War when there were a lot of Iraq War documentaries and fiction films—they may be good, but I haven't seen them, so I don't know—but I thought, "What else do we need?" And I thought we needed Solo, that spirit.
The only other filmmaker we really talked about was Pasolini, specifically related to the ending. When we went to Blowing Rock with the actors who play Solo and Alex to look at it and think about how we were going to shoot it I took a handful of still photos. Michael and I looked at them and I thought the photos reminded me of Pasolini, and I thought they should be shot handheld. The only handheld shot in the film is on the rock.
Other than that the only movies we thought of were driving movies, for technical reasons. They weren't movies we necessarily liked—not that we necessarily disliked them either, just that they weren't important to us. American Graffiti isn't an important movie to me, but it involves a lot of driving. So you look at it and you consider, how did they do it? You look at Taxi Driver, which is an important film to me, and you notice how they shot the taxi scenes. Or Le Samouraï. Collateral—great example of what not to do in a car.
RS: Why's that?
RB: It's so complicated for no reason. The camera goes through a steering wheel? Taxi Driver got it right—[gestures] here, here, here, here, these are the places you can put a camera and it makes sense and it's not distracting.
RS: I was looking at your top ten Criterion Collection list and noticed a disproportionate amount of films by Italian directors—Fellini, Antonioni, Pasolini, Rossellini, Olmi, De Sica. What about Italian movies and specifically Italian neorealism are you drawn to?
RB: I like those films because they deal with reality. I've always been interested in reality and I've always been terrified of escape. I don't like escape in my personal life or in my art, and I prefer to try to understand how I should behave in this world based on what's really around me. And I try to do that with my eyes open to the best of whatever knowledge I have, which is finite—I don't know everything.
I don't like escape films. I don't like movies that don't match the world I'm living in at all. Fellini's films may be all over the place, but the emotional truths in them match what I see in my life. Same with Buñuel. Unfortunately—Jean Renoir talks about this, his idea of reality—in our day-to-day life we keep erasing reality and putting up barricades to it. Not just film, but in conversation, buying food, and art. Why do this? It just fools people. I don't want to go to a film that people say is optimistic and hopeful when nothing in that movie resembles the world I'm living in. That doesn't make me optimistic and hopeful, that makes me depressed.
Solo is about a tough subject, but, for one thing, it's very funny—so I can at least get the audience's attention—it's exciting, it's dramatic. But there's also something in there that, because Solo is not a famous person, because there's no tricks in the film—Hollywood twists and turns that don't make any sense, no music to highlight the emotions, no swooping camera all over the place to distract you, no quick editing—because people walk away thinking this is something real and could really happen, then it makes Solo's giant act of love on that mountaintop something acceptable to us.
RS: And this is why your films prominently feature nonprofessional actors?
RB: If that taxi driver was Will Smith—who I think is an extremely good actor—I assume he can get through whatever situation, the guy lives in mansion and drives a Lamborghini. When I get on the subway and see the conductor I think he could be Solo.
RS: What about Red West? He's a minor icon of sorts.
RB: Some people know Red West because he's a little more famous. But most people think, Do I know that guy? Someone who saw Goodbye Solo said, "That Red West guy is great. He looks just like my uncle in South Carolina." But if it had been Robert Duvall the character would have been Robert Duvall.
RS: You don't think actors can merge into their roles?
RB: It depends. Because of our unhealthy obsession with celebrity it becomes difficult for certain actors even if they're extremely talented to do so. At the same, a film like Rocco and His Brothers baffles me. I think Alain Delon's a great actor and I think he's great in Rocco. But that movie is a realist opera—I say opera because its structure reminds me of an opera—and Alain Delon is in it! The guy is a superstar, and there's nothing distracting about him in that film.
RS: Do you write your scripts first and then find actors to play the characters or do you find actors and then write scripts around them?
RB: Unless you're doing a space movie or something it makes no sense to sit alone in a room and write. You go to the real location—you write. You go the real location—you rewrite. You go to the real location—you reconceive. You meet the real people, you add them into your script, you change them a little for your fictional means. You cast, either from the real location or outside the real location, and based on those people you rewrite again.
This is important as a concept, and more and more people are doing it, working in this style. As opposed to storyboarding—it makes no sense to storyboard for this kind of movie.
RS: Your work contains multiple layers, but it also seems there are two main threads: one is that of metaphor, where someone like Solo is a figure who stands for perseverance and compassion, while the second is that of the particular social, familial, and economic forces that shape this specific character's identity.
That's true. I've tried to make each film very specific to its characters—the way they talk, what they're wearing, their props—and that specificity comes from the reality of the situation. I think there are metaphysical ideas here, grand meanings, but those meanings are created out of the specificity of the situation, by the research, the details. I'm a firm believer that those details add up to the meaning. Of course these details are all selections—to pick these characters in all three films and those situations, that's a big part of the meaning. A Pakistani guy, a couple of Hispanic kids, a Senegalese guy, even William, who feels even more like an outsider in Winston-Salem than Solo—that's a huge part of the meaning. These are three American films by an American director named, Ramin Bah-what? Starring who? Yeah, these are three American films starring three American people made by an American guy. And if you don't believe it, look at the last election.

I think the key to making this a great dish is using great mole. I've made this with purchased mole from the store and it was good, but then I made it with some home made black mole and it was really good. The raisins also the perfect touch to the blend of spices.

This is a big favorite in my house. I add a bit more mole (maybe 1/3 of a cup) and more veggies, and skip the raisins (most of the time because I just forget...), and it's spectacular every time. Simple, healthy and delicious. And the house smells just great!

Used additional mole as suggested, my hubby and I LOVED this rich and filling soup. Served with crumbled queso blanco and diced scallion as garnish. Will make again and again!
KKonrad Posted: 03/01/10
This recipe was only ok. I made it because I had some mole paste sitting on the shelf and it was time to use it. I'm not so sure what the mole contributed, the final dish was chili pepper spicy but had bland quality like it was missing something - perhaps cumin? I may add more mole paste to the left overs and see how it tastes. It is not likely that I will make this again.

Are you a good guesser?
Today we kick off the second round of the guessing contest that was created by two of our festival-goers, Alexander and Martin. Did you miss the first round? Not to worry. The contest is open to everyone, so you're still able to participate.
The contest takes place in the festival's discussion forum where you have to guess which bands will be released at our lineup release on 19 April. It's not necessarily about who you want to get there, but who you think will.
To qualify, you must publish your guess as an answer in the created thread in the forum. You may change your guess as much as you want until 18 April at 23:59. After this deadline you're not allowed to change your guess.
When the contest ends, Alexander and Martin will announce the winner with the most correct guesses. Your guess will only count as a correct guess if the act is announced during the lineup release and not before or after.
The person that get the most acts right out of his or her 15 guesses wins a ticket to Roskilde 2012, a T-shirt of his or her choice and a cap. In the event of a tie the winner will be drawn randomly.

It's a battlefield out there and she's left all alone
The shooter take advantage of her weakness while
He shot her with everlasting bullets
But day by day , she enters the battlefield
The first trial is always the hardest
and so they say, it's what makes you stonger
Although, every run is just like the first
But day by day, she enters the battlefield
Every single time, she faces a different sniper
Very well trained assassins with no soul nor heart
So they take her down like a helpless bug
But day by day, she enters the battlefield
Tonight, she decided to fight for her life
She will no longer see a battlefield of woes and sadness
And so day by day, she will enter the battlefield with madness of love.
You defined happiness as a state of mind that we can find anywhere and whomever we please…
And I doubtedly chose to seek that in you —
But I found something more than what I was looking for..
I learnt how to trust again, to have hope and fallen in love—
It's a story I wish that ended with —— scratch that, NEVER ENDED.
I was aiming for a lifestyle filled with trust, hope and love… But most importantly, with him. Gave him my whole heartedly…
Unfortunately, he did not find his happiness in me
Or should I say…
Fortunately, he found his happiness elsewhere, even if it mean that..
I wasn't a part of it.
Just like any story, it has to come to an end.
— its not a happily ever after…
But it was our story.

Original literature: Touching The Flower, Part 8
Read Part 7 of Touching The Flower here.
'I suppose you weren't expecting me to come so early, but as soon as I heard about mother sending the letter, I thought I might as well save you the trouble of writing back to put her off the idea. I have to admit, I'm quite taken with this country. It's cold and it's wet, but it has a charm that our France doesn't quite have. Anyway, nice to see you and all that, but where am I to sleep? Or, am I to find my own bed?'
The capricious nature of his brother – younger than him by four years, - had not changed in Amable's time away from home, nor did he ever expect it to. He embraced his brother with the filial love he truly felt, for her did indeed love his family, every one of them, despite their many foibles, but in his head ran the thoughts of how he might teach Jacquotte, for while he was here at least, that to be himself was strictly not permitted. There was too much at stake, and, though the love he bore his younger brother was true, Amable was not willing to risk it.
Installing Jacquotte in the spare room of his house that was always kept ready for guests, he text Isabella, asking whether she was free in the evening – there was something he needed to talk to her about. He was, of course, frightened of taking the plunge with his young lover, but, as it was such a delicate matter, he could not very well have his little brother jeopardising anything, mostly because he would, in all likelihood, attempt to get there first, and Amable would not allow Isabella to become another fling for his brother, and he would not sweep his mess under the carpet for him this time.
He put on a brave face for Jacquotte as his phone buzzed urgently in his pocket, and gave him free reign of the house and that he could go wherever he would, so long as he was back before ten. That settled he grabbed his coat and set out for the Grace house.
Isabella was terrified. There was simply no way she could withstand Amable anymore. It wasn't even that he had made any advances that she could see, it was simply his presence. Every time she thought of him she shivered and had to sit down, and when her phone buzzed with the energy of a beehive beside her bed, she pressed her nose into the book she was reading as if she would escape into the world of Wuthering Heights. Her passion felt equally as real, and just as fatal, as that afflicting Catherine Earnshaw, if not more so, and she was not sure how much longer she could wait to be taken. It was an urgent need that she was afraid of, so wholly did it possess her, and as she read the message on the small screen of her phone she came swiftly to the realisation that it had to be now or never. The house was empty, she was more than willing, and Amable was on his way.
When he rang the doorbell and stepped into the porch to escape the November rain, as though his rights extended towards her. She was not sure if she resented this insertion into her home or embraced it. Perhaps she would do both, in the end. Without words, for they merely cluttered the atmosphere of overwhelming passion that seemed to surround them at that moment, Isabella pulled Amable towards her in the least enigmatic embrace she could have managed. Amable drowned in her kisses as she showered them on every surface of his face, and as the straps of her dress slipped from her shoulders, he did nothing to halt their progress.
With the half-frightened look of a hunted deer in her eyes, and the shiver of a girl ready to burst into womanhood, Isabella took her lover by the hand and led him to her room. As the door closed, the look disappeared completely, and a smile of rightness came over the face of Isabella. What she had to do was instinctive and primal, and though part of her cringed at the bestial primitiveness of her actions, she realised in her heart that there were some things that simply had to be done, and that she did not really want to refuse after all.
Though Amable's gaze never left that of his newly impassioned lover, his mind was constantly on his brother. Was there some other reason he might have come? What did his mother mean when she said 'causes of departure'? And what if, God forbid, he was not alone in the house that Amable had left unlocked.
As Temperance paced in front of the door from whence she had seen Monsieur Ecrivain emerge, she heard it open behind her, and, as she turned, saw the image of her idolised and thwarted teenage love before her. All at once she was empowered by her grief and her determination to cause some harm to the man that had spurned her and chosen her sister. Before Jacquotte had even a moment to react to the girl in front of him, he was being pulled into the house and was quickly out of his clothes. 'I knew there was something about this little wet country', he said to himself with a smile.

Getting Started with Moolah
Welcome to Moolah. Today we'll be showing you how to get started with Moolah E-Commerce, starting from selecting a package, then logging in for the first time, configuring a product, and deploying it to your website. Let's begin.
What is Moolah
Moolah brings to the power of E-Commerce to services, but what does that mean?
E-Commerce for Services
We created Moolah to fulfill a niche market for products that simply can't be sold on traditional online stores or marketplaces. What you sell is unique to every customer.
Customer Interaction
In Moolah, a product is not a simple thing that you assign a quantity and price to. Rather, it is something that the customer customizes based on attributes of the product. Each attribute can have a list of predefined options, or you can even let the customer provide their own. The availability and final cost is determined by what the user wants.
Embedding a Store
Moolah let's you sell your services from any website, including legacy websites. Moolah's single-page checkout appears directly on your website, each step loading below the previous, giving a smooth checkout process that won't distract customers.
Smooth Checkout
Unlike most e-commerce systems, Moolah does not force the user to use a traditional cart. Instead, the user simply selects the product they wish to purchase and immediately proceeds to the checkout.
Watch the Video
If you would like to watch how we deploy a Moolah store, watch the "Getting Started" video. The video shows you how to register for a free Moolah Personal store, how to log into the Management Panel, and finally how to deploy your Moolah store into your website.
Although this video uses Joomla as the host content management system, you can also use WordPress or any other HTML Website of your choice.
Sign-Up for a Store
The first step to sell online is to request a a Moolah store. The free Personal Package is free for personal use, and is perfect for individuals selling a limited number of goods and services. If you are a business and wish to start using more advanced features, you can upgrade to a commercial package as needed.
After completing the registration you'll receive an email containing the username and password for you account, as well as your Store ID, all of which you'll use to log into the management console.
Log into the Management Console
When you registered with Moolah E-Commerce, we created a default category and product for you that you can modify by logging into the Management Panel with the URL http://manage.moolah-ecommerce.com/1234567890/login, except insert your Store ID. The username will be the email address that you provided when registering, and the temporary password can be found in the email sent to you after completing the registration.
Configure Your First Product
When you sign-up for a Moolah store, we'll create a default product and category that you can use as the foundation for your first product. From the menu on the top, select the Catalog item, and then Products in the submenu to access the Products Report. Here you'll find all the information about your products. For example, you can change the product's title and price, followed by other attributes as described in our article on Managing Your Product Catalog.
Deploy Your Store
Next you will need to embed Moolah into your website. If you are are using WordPress or Joomla, you can easily download the plugins from our GitHub Page. Otherwise, just add the Moolah JavaScript code to your website's HTML and let Moolah do the rest.
If you are using one of our plugins, simply copy the "Product ID" and insert this ID into the appropriate box. Alternatively, you can paste the script directly into the HTML of your page as show below.
View the Product
With the store configured you are able to embed the store, a store category, or a single product into your site. You may need to create a menu link first. Use the Menu Manager to create the link for Joomla, or add the "Moolah" shortcode into a post for WordPress.

We make personalized imprinted items easily accessible. The first element of our personalized imprinted items is the items themselves. We understand that different businesses need to utilize different products. This is why; we offer such a wide array of products ready to be imprinted. Brand recognition is an imperative element of marketing. By placing your custom logo on a backpack, gym bag, computer bag, etc. You spread the message of your business. Our personalized imprinted items make this an extremely cost effective business move.
Personalized imprinted items give your business creative options. Every company can handpick personalized imprinted items, which are likely to target their main clientele. For example, if you're a vitamin company, a personalized imprinted gym bag is a much better option than a computer backpack. Our personalized imprinted items give your business the tools to promote a business (itself) in the best possible way. Now that the different items, which can be personalized, have been explained, it is important to understand the messages.
Our personalized imprinted items can go far beyond a custom logo. If your company has a certain slogan, this is a great option for imprinting. This message can be something new, or something that has made your company recognizable for years. With personalized imprinted items, the personalized (personalization) factor puts the power completely in the hands of your business.

How to File an Individual Income Tax Return Form
Have you earned enough money in the past year that you will have to file a tax return? If you have never filed your own return before, this can seem like an overwhelming task. What do you need to do?
First, relax and be confident that it isn't as bad as it may seem. Millions of people file returns every year, and each year the IRS helps simplify the process, especially for first time filers. So, you will be okay.
Then, once you're at ease about doing it, also know that you will receive much or most of what you need for filing from other sources. If you were employed, you will receive a W-2 form from your employer. If you had interest in bank accounts or CDs, the financial institution will mail you a 1099 form. If you have a mortgage, the lender will send you a statement of the interest you paid, and so on.
Most of what you need to keep track of yourself is for your own business. If you didn't own a business, you may not need to produce any of your own records. If you did, you should already have a good accounting of your income and expenses for the year, and you only need to decide what is required to count as income and what is allowed as deductions.
Once these things are in place, most of your work is done. The biggest thing left is to decide whether you file it yourself and, if so, what service you will use to get the forms you need. It's much easier to do it yourself than you might think.
With services like TurboTax Online, everything is at your fingertips. The task may seem overwhelming, but like many others, you will find you just need to get started and you can do it!

Supermodel Salute. Closing Ceremony London Olympic Games
Had I have known, I would have awakened from my slumber…
The Olympic stadium briefly became a catwalk when Britishs model Stella Tennant, Lily Cole, Karen Elson, Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Jourdon Dunn and David Gandy paid a tribute to British fashion during the closing ceremony for the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Strutting to the sounds of David Bowie's "Fashion" all models wore bespoke creations from famed and idolised designers including Alexander McQueen, Erdem, Victoria Beckham, Stella McCartney. Vivienne Westwood, Christopher Kane and Burberry.
Fabulously chic and a fashion moment to go down in HISTORY.
Doesn't get much better than this…enough said.

The DCR has a publication here on the preservation of stone walls, with lots of references to good historical and legal resources. They write:
How do we learn to recognize these features when toppled stone boundary markers or collapsed and tree-filled cellar holes often go unnoticed in the woods? Even when identified, it may be assumed that their isolation removes any relevance or historic significance. But it is exactly these types of landscape elements that tie the land to a past use and history that may no longer be immediately discernable, and without the skills needed to identify these features their eventual loss is assured. However, stone features can be protected through proper stewardship that addresses threats such as neglect, collapse, and damage from vegetation and theft.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- A massive appropriations plan received final passage in the Kentucky General Assembly on Thursday, paving the way for more than 1,000 road construction projects that political leaders say will provide a needed economic boost as the state recovers from recession.
The House passed the two-part, $10 billion initiative on the final day of this year's legislative session.
The initial round of appropriations, which cleared the House 77-16 late Thursday, calls for $4.5 billion to be spent in the next two years to build roads and bridges across the state. The remainder, covering the following four years, passed 89-4 shortly afterward.
Senate Transportation Committee Chairman Ernie Harris, R-Crestwood, said the proposal includes funding for the state's single largest project: $2.6 billion for two bridges across the Ohio River in Louisville. Harris said the Democratic-controlled House and the Republican-led Senate agreed that project is a top priority.
The appropriations bill also includes $200 million to widen the heavily traveled Interstate 65, where numerous fatal traffic crashes have occurred in recent years. A crash on a rural stretch of the highway near Munfordville in 2010 killed 11 people, 10 of them members of a Mennonite family.
The Senate had passed the measures without opposition earlier Thursday.
Gov. Steve Beshear said the highway plan will not only improve the state's transportation infrastructure but also will boost the economy.
"The Louisville bridges project is going to employ thousands of people over the next six, eight, 10 years," he said. "All of the different projects that are in there will put people to work. That money will then flow through our economy and be turned over many times through our retail establishments. So, it really is job creator."
Negotiators for the House and Senate engaged in lengthy talks regarding hundreds of relatively small road and bridge projects that lawmakers pushed for their local communities. Those talks ended shortly after 2 a.m. Thursday.
"I would say, yes, it was tough negotiations," Harris said.
Budgeting has been one of the more time-consuming chores this year for Kentucky lawmakers, who last month passed a $19 billion state government operating budget.
A slow economic rebound led to a lean state budget that forces sharp cuts on most government agencies, leaves employees without pay raises again and erases a planned cost-of-living increase from the monthly pension checks of retirees.
The measure calls for 8.4 percent cuts to most government agencies and programs because of lingering financial woes brought on by the recession. Those cuts will account for nearly $300 million in savings.
The latest budget will be especially difficult for agencies that have already cut spending by more than 30 percent over the past four years.
Democratic Gov. Steve Beshear used his line-item veto power Wednesday to strike some provisions lawmakers had tucked into the budget, including $200,000 for an actors' guild, $300,000 for a mystery writers' festival and a handful of other earmarks.
Lawmakers scraped up funding for some high-priority projects, including $2.5 million to begin design work on a proposed renovation of Rupp Arena, home of the University of Kentucky basketball team. They also agreed to pony up $3.5 million for improvements at the Kentucky Horse Park north of Lexington.
Lawmakers also passed Beshear's tax amnesty plan that he believes could collect a badly needed $55 million over the next two years. It would be the state's first offer of tax amnesty in a decade, and would forgive some penalties if people come forward and pay their taxes.
The legislation is House Bill 267 and House Joint Resolution 77.

Meet Columbia's extended family. Having a crew of highly talented outdoor athletes and adventurers like this is kind of like having a fleet of brothers and sisters. They might be a little faster or stronger, but they lead by example. They remind us that it's not how fast you go or how far, it's that you go.
An outdoor spirit, 28-year-old Géraldine Fasnacht grew up in the Swiss mountains. Skiing at age two, she rapidly switched to snowboarding at 10, then began climbing, mountain biking and hiking in the summer.
Always in search of the next extreme outdoor adventure, she started skydiving. After 300 jumps, Géraldine decided to go for BASE jumping, and then discovered the wing suit. Géraldine sees her aggressive outdoor activities as a natural progression and another way to enjoy the landscape.
Flying is part of her life. She is one of the pioneers of the wing suit, developing new wing designs and pushing the discipline not only in terms of performance but in terms of territory as well. During an expedition on Baffin Island she managed, with a group of guides, base jumpers and mountain experts, to be the first to jump off five cliffs including the 1770-meter Broad Peak, the highest cliff ever jumped.
As a professional snowboarder Géraldine twice won the most prestigious world Freeride event, Verbier Xtrem, and had a promising start on the Fresh Freeride World Tour, winning the first contest in Mammoth, California in January 2008. Injured in Sochi in January of 2008 she went back to the snow at Tignes in March 2009 for the last two last events of the Freeride World Tour. She was the winner at Tignes and placed third at the Nissan Xtrem Verbier. Those victories have shown it to be the right time for her and her teammate, Seb Collomb Gros, to attempt their big project of the winter 2009: Follow the path of the Haute-Route and ski more than 10 of the North Faces between Chamonix and Zermatt.
Where is Géraldine now? You can follow her on Eurosport through a special program throughout the winter season. She will touch down Europe in February 2010 once she returns from a three month trip in Holtanna. Where is that? In Antarctica, where she and three others are opening new peaks, moving from one point to another via snow kiting!

The berry-laden stems of Winterberry may be cut from the branches of mature shrubs in late Autumn and early Winter and brought indoors. However, the fruits of Winterberry may serve as a popular source of food for deer, squirrels, and birds, so if harvesting for interior appeal is planned, this might be best achieved in mid-Autumn, with placement of the freshly cut stems in a bucket of water in a cool place.

text: Render explores the moving image as a physical and phenomenological processes in contemporary art. It examines the intermingling of the materiality of video and technology in which artists use pixels and particle units from film to produce a new layer of mediated work. Commonly used in computer editing programs, 'rendering' is a required process to generate and solidify special effects and transitions. Consequently, the works in the exhibition apply artistic uses of translating visual data from analog to the digital, and vice versa. The exhibition will be presented on the main floor of UCR/California Museum of Photography and on the Culver Center of the Art's Digital Mural screens on the building's facade that faces the pedestrian mall.

Milton sophomore Sanna Levine scored the game's first goal with 28:03 to play and the top-ranked Eagles scored three more times in the final 17 to minutes to beat Northview 4-0 in the Class AAAAA girls soccer championship game on Saturday.
The Eagles' first soccer title capped a perfect championship day for the north Fulton school, which earlier won titles in boys and girls lacrosse. It also gave Milton six state championships for the 2011-2012 school year, adding to the titles in boys basketball and boys and girls golf.
Northview (13-7-1) was able to keep high-scoring Milton (22-1) off the scoreboard for 52 minutes behind the outstanding play of goalkeeper Taylor Erickson and a defense that routinely kept five, six or more defenders back deep.
But Levine finally broke through, scoring from about 12 yards out off an assist from Kala Faulkner.
That was not good news for Northview, which had allowed just 16 goals all season and had shut out four consecutive playoff

But afterward?
Well, a year ago I began to hear things said again. And then I found letters and bills. It was the same thing all over. He hadn't kept his word.
But what did he say?
I let it go for weeks, hoping he would say something. But never a word.
He loved you so. How he must have suffered!
Yes, I suppose he did suffer. But if he cared so for me why did he try to keep it hidden, the one thing I would hate most?
That was his way. It made him ashamed.
Well, he couldn't keep it dark forever. Mother almost found out.
Almost found out?
Yes. So of course I stepped in. We had a frightful row.
When was that?
Six months ago. I got him clear. It was hard—this time the woman almost got him.
I helped him. But I did it on one condition—that he go to work.
Work? What about his music?
That's what he said. But I asked him if he had thought about his music when he got into these scrapes. He couldn't say a word. So it was all arranged for him to go into my office, right under my eye, when mother was taken sick. Then she wanted him to stay near her, so.... And then she died. And the accident. Well I don't see what more I could have done.
No.... Of course, it wasn't as if you turned against him. And the office—he was to pay you back that way?
Pay me back? Why, if he could, naturally; but that wasn't my idea, that was only incidental. My idea was to get him into the habit of hard work.
But he always did work!

IBM debuts real-time vulnerability manager
Summary: The tool, part of its QRadar line, scans, analyzes and unifies vulnerability information in a single place.
IBM announced this morning a new security intelligence tool that it says helps organizations identify vulnerabilities in real-time.
It's called the QRadar Vulnerability Manager, and it aggregates vulnerability information into a single view where a security lead can manage it. The new product slots into IBM's Security Intelligence Platform.
The tool "combs through security holes to help close them to potential exploits, excluding those hidden behind firewalls, associated with inactive applications or otherwise unreachable from external attacks," IBM says.
The need that Big Blue is trying to fill here is limited resources. The tool was developed to address reductions in security staffing, even as vulnerabilities multiply exponentially. IBM believes fewer people can do more with less if it takes data that is already available within an organization and provides the right context (risk, and therefore priority) to it.
QRadar handles network, endpoint, database and application scanners and pulls in the latest X-Force Threat Intelligence alerts and incident reports from the National Vulnerability Database. It also has its own PCI-certified scanner.
