P12-109: Movie Review: Sherlock Holmes, Game of Shadows
Project 2012: Day 109
The first of this franchise copped a lot of flack for not staying close to the sleuthing talents of Conan-Doyles' Holmes, but straying into action, effects, and lame humour. As a purist, I probably agree, but as a movie viewer, I have to say, it was a lot of fun.
Game of Shadows takes the concept one step further than the last movie. The characters are no deeper, and transform very little. The plot is predictable. Despite the (Spoiler Alert) efforts of the writers to make you think Holmes dies at the end, you know that this can't possibly be true.
Still the make-up, especially for his camouflage is brilliant. Shooting and explosion scenes pretty awesome. If going bigger than the last was the objective, challenge.
Still, it's a roller-coaster, not a literary masterpiece, and on the roller-coaster you enjoy the thrill of the ride. No disappointment here.
Worth seeing at the cinema once. Not necessarily worth seeing it in 3D (sigh!). Definitely worth getting in HD for a further viewing at home.
Fun flick.

Q: I am using iOS 6 and my brand new iPhone 5 with a Windows 7 PC. I really like them all and the iCloud features. However, I can't seem to figure out an easy way to do a simple task: What is the best way to store a bunch of photos I have on my PC in iCloud? I have a bunch of folders organized nicely with photos in them on my PC that I would like to put into iCloud, but when I copy folders into the Photo Stream folder on my PC, they don't seem to upload. From my remedial testing, it appears that ONLY files in the top-level folder upload, not anything inside sub-folders. Is the Photo Stream folder designed this way on purpose? Who the heck wants to put a bunch of photos into one folder with no real organization? Help!
- Anonymous
A: The Photo Stream folder originally introduced in iCloud last year basically worked exactly in that manner, as it was never really intended as a way to organize photos, but merely a way to keep a collection of everything you had recently taken or added to your library.
The good news, however, is that with the release of iOS 6, Apple introduced a new feature known as Shared Photo Streams that allows you to create multiple, named photo streams that automatically synchronize out to all of your iCloud-enabled devices and can even be easily shared with other iCloud users. On the desktop side, Shared Photo Streams requires a Mac running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 with iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later or a PC running Windows 7 or Vista and Apple's iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later.
Once you've installed the iCloud Control Panel on your Windows PC and enabled the Photo Streams feature, a new Photo Streams section should appear under Computer in Windows Explorer.
Selecting this option opens a virtual folder for all of your Photo Streams. Initially you'll only see one entry here—My Photo Stream—representing the main stream of photos you've taken with your iPhone. Any Shared Photo Streams you create will also appear here.
From here, you can create new Shared Photo Streams simply by clicking the "New Photo Stream" button. You'll be prompted to give your new Shared Photo Stream a name and optionally add other iCloud users to share it with or allow public access to it via a web browser.
Note that if you only want to create a Shared Photo Stream between your iPhone and your PC, you can simply give it a name and leave the "TO" field blank. The Shared Photo Stream will be created in your iCloud account and synchronized to your iPhone and any other devices that are using the same account. You will also be able to manage the Shared Photo Stream and add or remove photos from either your PC, iPhone or any other iCloud-enabled device.
If you do choose to invite other users to your Shared Photo Stream, they will only be able to view the photos in your stream, as well as comment on or "like" them. Only the owner can add or remove content from a Shared Photo Stream. The owner can also add/remove users from a Shared Photo Stream or toggle the public website setting at any time.
You can add photos to your Shared Photo Stream during the creation process, or afterward by going into the Photo Stream and selecting "Add Photos" or right-clicking on a photo or group of photos from elsewhere on your computer and choosing "Add to Photo Stream" from the context menu.
Note that you must use the Windows Explorer interface to add or remove content from a Shared Photo Stream; despite the fact that the Shared Photo Streams live in a sub-folder of your "Pictures" folder, it seems the iCloud Control panel will not pick up any changes made directly in the file system.

Big disadvantage of Shared Photo Streams:
On iOS it only uploads (and downloads) downscaled versions of your photos. The default Photo Stream at least uploads full size photos (and downloads them on Mac and PC)

Picture: Forest Whitaker and wife Keisha Whitaker Los Angeles Premiere of 'Hairspray' held at the Mann Village Theatre Westwood, California - 10.07.07
Actor Forest Whitaker is set to join the cast of gritty TV drama The Shield.
THE CRYING GAME star will play show regular DET JON KAVANAUGH (corr) in the fifth season of the series when it airs in January (06), according to trade magazine The Hollywood Reporter.
Series creator and executive producer Shawn Ryan admits he's thrilled to land the actor for his show: "He's going to be a great foil for the guys on our show. Forest has always impressed me with his range.
"He's got an incredible sweetness and soulfulness but also strength. It's a rare combination for an actor and that appealed to me with this character."
Whitaker isn't the first big name to join the show, which stars Michael Chiklis, as a regular - Glenn Close was Emmy nominated for her hard-hitting MONICA RAWLINGS character last season.

Viewer Participation: Golf Stands Out As Only Sport In Which Fans Can Call In Violations
Published April 15, 2013
WHY IS IT EVEN ALLOWED? In Newark, Steve Politi asked, "Why does golf even allow that? Does anyone else think this is totally ridiculous?" Imagine that "happening during an NFL game." Woods is being "punished here because he's on TV more than anyone else in the sport." He has been "hit with a two-stroke penalty because he's a celebrity who goofed up and said the wrong thing with the cameras rolling" (Newark STAR-LEDGER, 4/14). Watson on Saturday said, "A high-profile player has the camera on him all the time. Like me today, there were no cameras on me today. Everybody could care less what I was doing. They were worried about what Tiger was doing" (USATODAY.com, 4/13). In N.Y., Filip Bondy wrote under the header, "Method Of How Tiger Woods Was Penalized At Masters Shows Golf Is Going Off Course" (N.Y. DAILY NEWS, 4/14).

Release Date:
April 10, 2007
This upgraded and expanded CD of Every Good Boy Deserves Favour is a hybrid SACD/CD disc, with two audio layers -- a multi-channel surround-sound SACD layer, playable only on Super-Audio CD players, and a stereo remastered CD layer, playable on any compact disc (or DVD) player. The CD layer is impressive on its own terms, bringing out a close, crisp sound previously unheard on this album, even on its best prior editions -- to achieve that, the producers have boosted the volume a bit, so that the record now sounds more-or-less the way it must have on recording and playback in the studio, to the bandmembers themselves. But the real treat, for those so equipped, is the SACD layer, which offers the album in 5.1 surround-sound, in a mix based on producer Tony Clarke's quadrophonic mix from the start of the '70s. Serious listeners and audiophiles will love the isolation of the instruments that can be achieved here, and the details that are revealed in the playing and mixing that went into this record, arguably the most well-realized of the group's entire history. Either layer offers a fascinating new take on the recording, the inherent lyricism now matched by a big studio sound and giving the record a harder edge than a lot of longtime listeners will ever have associated with it. The relatively short running time of this expanded edition, which contains but two bonus tracks -- the original live-in-the-studio rendition of "The Story in Your Eyes" and the previously unheard Ray Thomas/Justin Hayward composition "The Dreamer," from the same November 1970 sessions -- also reveals a lot about the strain that lurked just below the surface of the making of this record; a U.S. tour was sandwiched right in the middle and immediately after the sessions for this record, and the members had come into this album with just enough material (with a lot of work on pieces such as "Procession" and "My Song") to fill it up -- in other words, they were losing ground in their creative efforts to stay ahead of demand (a live album would have been a solution to giving them some breathing room, and one heartily wishes that someone within the group or their management, or the Decca label, had thought to tape some of the shows from this period, which were very enthusiastically reviewed, even in the pages of Rolling Stone -- and yes kids, there was a time when the Moody Blues were that cool). As it happens, the two outtakes are highly worthwhile, with "The Story in Your Eyes" rocking even harder in the alternate take, and "The Dreamer" offering a song that probably could have passed muster on the group's previous album, A Question of Balance, with more of a rock base than was usual for the band, especially in the middle section; it's also a rare look at a work-in-progress that didn't progress. And coupled with the improved sound, this is an essential acquisition, even for casual fans -- among many other virtues, one can now fully appreciate the range of keyboards beyond the Mellotron that Michael Pinder was using, and the craftsmanship that went into melding the lyrical and harder rocking sounds on this record. The annotation by Mark Powell is also thorough and highly informative, as well as entertaining. Bruce Eder, Rovi

College mascot bulldog dies; Butler University issues news release
If you ever doubted the importance and high profile of college mascots today, consider the story of Blue II, the male bulldog mascot of Butler University that died Saturday of congestive heart failure at age 9.
Blue retired during a "Changing of the Collar" ceremony in March, relinquishing his mascot duties to 1-year-old Butler Blue III.
But the retired mascot -- which gained national fame when Butler University's men's basketball team played for the NCAA national championship in 2010 and 2011 -- continued to come to his campus office on a regular basis and post on his various social media profiles, according to a press release the university sent to news media to alert fans to his death. »Read Full Blog Post
Union Grove High School teachers return with second music video
Remember these guys?
Union Grove High School's Mitchell Brachmann, a science teacher, and Jordan Hein, a physical education teacher, earned props last year for creating a cheeky back-to-school music video in the vein of R&B singer Jason Derulo's, "In My Head."
The teachers are back with a second music video this year. The pals appear to have devoted part of their summer to creating another set of lyrics and choreography, this time co-opting One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful." »Read Full Blog Post
State honors 167 schools for progress with low-income students
The state Department of Public Instruction has named 167 schools doing a better-than-average job educating low-income students, including 17 schools in Milwaukee Public Schools.
The awards are for schools with large populations of low-income students that either have consistently high scores and small achievement gaps, or whose students demonstrate lots of progress in math and reading over the course of the year.
The MPS programs recognized included Milwaukee German Immersion School, for showing high growth with students, and 16 other schools for landing within the top 25% of high-poverty schools in the state with above-average math and reading achievement. »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Conservative group says MPS, city not selling enough empty buildings
A conservative legal group says that Milwaukee Public Schools is stalling on selling its empty school buildings to competing school operators that seek school facility space, and that the City of Milwaukee isn't acting on a new law that gives it more authority to sell the district's buildings.
The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, which supports many Republican causes, says its new report shows that MPS is preventing charter schools and private schools in the voucher program from purchasing empty and unused school buildings.
But MPS fired back yesterday, saying the legal group's information omits facts and containts false claims. »Read Full Blog Post(7)
New state achievement tests to cost Wisconsin $9.8 million, report says
New online state achievement tests aligned to nationwide academic standards and scheduled to be used for the first time next school year will cost Wisconsin $9.8 million to implement, according to estimates from a national education advocacy group.
That total is about $458,000 more than what Wisconsin already spends to administer annual statewide standardized achievement tests, according to the analysis.
The analysis found 13 of the 23 states participating in a federally funded consortia creating assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards will save some money on the new tests, compared to what they previously spent on testing costs. »Read Full Blog Post(5)

How much attention should prospective students pay to college rankings?
It's that time of year again, when college recruiters swarm high schools across the country, touting their latest college rankings to woo the best and brightest prospective students. At the same time, critics line up to tell high school students and parents why they should ignore the rankings.
Critics warn that the rankings are flawed, and should not heavily influence a student's college choice. Several other factors should come into play, such as the success of graduates with landing jobs after graduation, and whether it's the right fit, both academically and personally.
The methodology used to produce the 2014 rankings was slightly updated, deemphasizing measures like student selectivity and class rank, and emphasizing retention and graduation rate measures. Other criteria used included peer and high school counselor assessment, faculty resources, financial resources and alumni giving. »Read Full Blog Post(38)
Report: Wisconsin's cuts to state aid for schools 7th largest in nation
Wisconsin's cuts to state aid for K-12 education since the start of the recession is the 7th largest in the country, according to a new report from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.
The report from the center, which calls itself "fiscally conservative but socially liberal," calculates that Wisconsin cut its state aid to K-12 public schools by 15.3% since 2008, a reduction that out-paced the cuts made by all but six other states during that time.
When measured in dollar amounts rather than percentages, Wisconsin's cuts to state aid since the start of the recession trailed only Alabama, according to the report. »Read Full Blog Post(63)
Andre Agassi in Milwaukee to open Rocketship charter school
Former tennis champion Andre Agassi is scheduled to be in Milwaukee Monday to attend the official opening of Rocketship Southside Community Prep, 3003 W. Cleveland Ave.
Tennis stars and urban education aren't a common combination, but the Canyon-Agassi Charter School Facilities Fund - a joint venture between the Los Angeles-based Canyon Capital Realty Advisors LLC and Agassi's business partnership - helped provide financing to turn the former commercial building in Milwaukee into a school facility.
Rocketship is part of a nonprofit network of charter schools based in Palo Alto, Calif., that intend to grow into a nationwide chain. Milwaukee is the group's first expansion site and is a litmus test for how successful the schools can be with low-income and minority students in other cities. Rocketship intends to open eight K-5 schools in Milwaukee by 2017, serving up to 5,000 students. »Read Full Blog Post(8)
5 reasons to keep watching Wisconsin's new school report cards
New 2012-'13 report cards are out for almost all public schools in Wisconsin, and you can find the pdfs on the state website.
But the searchable table of district report cards we developed yesterday is more fun to use. You can search by score (which districts fell below expectations?) or by district name. Credit Kevin Crowe for programming that on deadline yesterday.
Beyond an overall score, the new report card results raise lots of new questions about schools and their performance. »Read Full Blog Post(3)
State survey suggests many teachers dissatisfied with profession
Two out of three teachers believe public education in Wisconsin is headed down the wrong track, and almost half say they don't have enough money or time to make the changes necessary to help more kids achieve in their schools, according to a new statewide survey that tapped the minds of thousands of educators.
The firm that funded and carried out the study, Wood Communications, is planning focus groups around the state in October and November to open up more discussion about the pressures facing teachers, and how the local business community can respond.
The survey, Voices from the Classroom, was taken by a sample of about 2,000 teachers across the state in May and June. The survey revealed concerns from teachers about the public not understanding how education has changed. More than one in three teachers said they don't have enough money to do what's necessary in the classroom. »Read Full Blog Post(63)

Female sexuality workshop at Marquette University booted off campus again
Organizers of a student-led, 12-week workshop on female sexuality at Marquette University once again are looking for meeting space on campus after their academic sponsorship was pulled for the second time in less than a year.
Last week, as the FemSex workshop was gearing up for its second semester on campus, organizers were told the Marquette Honors Program "had been ordered" to withdraw its sponsorship of the workshop because of concerns related to Title IX and "mandatory reporting," according to a press release from FemSex organizers.
FemSex organizers allege that administrators expressed concern that participants might divulge past experiences of sexual or other violence in the space. »Read Full Blog Post(20)
New SAT may be less coachable, more analytical
A new SAT being developed to replace the current version will take a different approach to the essay, and will be less coachable, according to an article in today's Inside Higher Ed.
David Coleman, president of the College Board, told a gathering of college admission counselors in Toronto on Thursday that the new SAT would be more closely tied to high school and college curriculums, and less coachable, the article reports.
Coleman said there are serious flaws in the essay portion of the test. Test-takers respond to a prompt, and are not being rewarded for being factual. In fact, ignoring the facts in favor of using a few impressive words is considered a strategy to score higher, he said.
Coleman suggested a writing assignment requiring students to analyze information may replace the essay.
UW System gearing up for search to replace President Kevin Reilly
The University of Wisconsin System has established a website detailing its search process, a general position description and a timeline for hiring a new system president to replace Kevin Reilly, who will leave the post at the end of the year.
The UW System Board of Regents is on a fast track to replace Reilly, and will finalize a job description for the post in the next few weeks so that the job can be posted through various venues. A video conference earlier this month allowed institutions and stakeholders to share thoughts on priority issues and desired qualities of a new president. The regents expect to name a new system president in early January.
Reilly, 63, resigned in July, three months after he came under fire when state legislators and Gov. Scott Walker became aware that the system and its campuses were carrying hundreds of millions of dollars in cash balances, while at the same time raising tuition. The system raised tuition by 5.5% each of the last six years, but froze tuition for the next two years after it was blasted for its cash balances.
Reilly said he started talking about a transition in leadership last fall and winter, before the conflicts with state legislators and Walker. He is leaving UW System to advise the American Council on Education, which represents the presidents of accredited, degree-granting institutions and advocates on federal policy issues. (5)
Survey: Less than a third of college applicants' personal essays are excellent or outstanding
A majority of college admissions officers (68%) in a recent national survey said they would describe less than a third of the personal essays written by college applicants as "excellent or outstanding."
Ten percent of the college admissions officers in the survey said plagiarism is a "somewhat" to "very" serious problem among applicants, and 10% said they use anti-plagiarism software to detect it.
Kaplan Test Prep surveyed 422 admissions officers from the nation's top national, liberal arts and regional colleges and universities -- as compiled by U.S. News & World Report -- about a number of issues relating to college admissions. The telephone survey was done between July and August, and four of U.S. News & World Report's top 10 ranked schools were among the participants, according to Kaplan. »Read Full Blog Post

Muskego, Grafton schools win national Blue Ribbon awards
Five Wisconsin public schools have been named 2013 Blue Ribbon Schools by the U.S. Department of Education, including Country Meadows Elementary School in Muskego and Grafton Elementary School.
According to a news release from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, Kohler High School, Ridgeway Elementary School in Dodgeville and Suamico Elementary School in Green Bay also won Blue Ribbon awards.
The awards are considered the highest honor for academic achievement in primary through secondary education in the U.S. They recognize schools where students consistently perform at high levels, or where student achievement is being significantly improved.

UW ranks No. 2 on Playboy's list of Top Party Colleges
The University of Wisconsin hasn't been Playboy's top party college since 2006, but the latest rankings place the state's flagship campus in Madison at No. 2, behind West Virginia University.
Playboy released its list of Top Party Schools of 2013 on Wednesday. This is the first time West Virginia University in Morgantown, W.Va., has topped the list, which Playboy has published eight times.
Last year's No. 1 pick, the University of Virginia, failed to crack the top 10 this year. »Read Full Blog Post(25)

Letter from MU President Pilarz, explaining his resignation
Below is the text of a letter Father Scott Pilarz wrote to the Marquette University community Wednesday to explain his unexpected resignation as the school's president:
Dear members of the Marquette community:
I am writing to provide some further background and information on my decision to resign as
president of Marquette. First, I want you to know that I have enjoyed my time here, especially
my interaction with students, faculty and staff. The classes I have been privileged to teach stand
out in my mind. Marquette students are bright, engaging, thoughtful and genuine. Our faculty
and staff are generous and deeply devoted to the university's mission. Our work together
throughout the strategic planning process is also a highlight in my career in higher education. I
have never before seen a campus community work so well toward a common purpose. Hopefully
the plan will shape the university's direction for years to come. Additionally, I want to thank the
vice presidents and deans for their contributions to the life of the university and to my life.

Common Core wars: Senate, Assembly leaders announce review committees
Republican leaders of the Senate and Assembly on Wednesday announced the formation of committees to review and potentially replace a set of nationwide academic standards being implemented in Wisconsin's public schools, which have turned into a game of political football around the country.
But notably absent from the committee member rosters are Sen. Luther Olsen (R-Ripon) and Rep. Steve Kestell (R-Elkhart Lake), who chair the Senate and Assembly education committees, respectively, and who already held a recent hearing on the Common Core standards. They both declined to join, a clear sign they're not on board with the agenda of the latest select committees.
Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau) and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) announced that the committees on the Common Core will hear testimony on the standards and provide recommendations, including "other alternatives that may be available," according to a news release from Fitzgerald's office. »Read Full Blog Post(9)
'I'm Shmacked' video depicts binge drinking during UW Parents Weekend
Madison Police may have shut down the notoriously rowdy, annual Mifflin Street Block Party, but binge drinking during Parents Weekend at the University of Wisconsin went viral this week on YouTube.
The notoriety came the same week that Playboy ranked UW-Madison No. 2 on its list of Top Party Colleges of 2013, and that the University of Delaware rugby team appealed a five-year suspension linked to thousands of drunk students mobbing the streets of Newark after the same film crew that came to Madison last weekend set up camp there on Sept. 9.
New book, 'Sex, Drugs 'n Facebook,' based on UW-Madison research
A new book debuting Tuesday aims to help parents navigate the dangers and benefits of the Internet and social media, based on research at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in Madison.
The book, "Sex, Drugs 'n Facebook: A Parent's Toolkit," describes the problems of Internet safety and what issues parents might face. It covers sexting, privacy, cyberbullying, cyberstalking, Internet addiction, exposure to porn and other issues. The list price at Amazon is $13.64 for a paperback and $9.99 for Kindle. It also will be available through Hunter House Publishers.
The book was written by former UW School of Medicine and Public Health researcher Megan Moreno and co-authored by 23 med school residents and students from a variety of backgrounds who were part of Moreno's Social Media and Adolescent Health Research Team, according to a news release from UW-Madison. »Read Full Blog Post(1)

Sant Bani School hosting Empty Bowls fund raising event on Sunday
SANBORNTON — Sant Bani School invites community members to attend an Empty Bowls fundraising event on Sunday, February 8, from 2-4 p.m. This event offers a great opportunity for families who are considering Sant Bani for their children to join in our school-wide service project and enjoy a casual reception with current parents, faculty and staff where they can learn more about the School.
Service Learning has been a cornerstone of Sant Bani's program since the School's founding in 1973. Students in all grades are involved in multiple projects throughout the year, and are given opportunities to choose projects they are passionate about. This year's Empty Bowls event is a school-wide project.
K-8 Service Learning Coordinator Jessica Pine explains, "Empty Bowls is a great example of an integrated service learning project, providing an opportunity for student-centered learning and collaboration as students work together to plan and implement the event."
Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger. This spring, guests will be invited to SBS for a meal of homemade soup and bread. In exchange for a cash donation, guests enjoy a meal together, and then keep a hand-crafted bowl as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. The money raised will be donated to a local nonprofit organization, chosen by Sant Bani students, that is working to end hunger and food insecurity. Empty Bowl events have taken place across the United States and in at least a dozen other countries to raise and donate many millions of dollars to hunger-fighting organizations.

Singer-songwriter Liz Longley performing at PSU on February 20
PLYMOUTH — Singer-songwriter Liz Longley will perform in Plymouth State University's Silver Center for the Arts: Silver Series on Friday, February 20 at 8 p.m.
Tickets, priced between $15 and $30, are available at the Silver Center.
In the short time since her graduation from Boston's renowned Berklee College of Music, singer-songwriter Liz Longley has assembled an impressive resume. While best known for her stop-you-in-your-tracks voice, Longley has steadily developed a reputation as an accomplished songwriter, crafting intimately personal portraits through her music.
In the past two years, Longley has taken home top prizes at some of the most prestigious songwriting competitions in the country, including the BMI John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship Competition, the International Acoustic Music Awards and the Rocky Mountain Folk Fest Songwriting Competition. New England named her the 2011 Female Performer of the Year, the Washington Post declared that she is "destined for a larger audience" and Dig Boston called her "a rising acoustic sensation." Even John Mayer is a fan, calling her music "gorgeous, simply gorgeous."
A Philadelphia native, Longley recently made the move to Nashville, Tenn. where she has quickly made her presence known throughout Music City. In addition to writing more than forty songs with some of the best songwriters in the business, Longley has also managed to keep up her seemingly never-ending touring schedule, playing over one hundred shows in the last year - all without the help of a record label or booking agent.
While Longley frequently supports the likes of Shawn Colvin, Amos Lee, Paula Cole, Nanci Griffith, Livingston Taylor, Lori McKenna and Colin Hay, something remarkable has begun to happen - audiences are emerging from these shows as fast fans of Longley's music as well. An engaging performer with an effortless stage presence, Longley has broken advance ticket and merchandise sales records at numerous venues across the country.
Most recently, Longley's music has taken center stage on a national level with numerous television placements and radio airplay. ABC's critically acclaimed series NY Med featured Longley's music throughout the first season, and the 2012 season finale of Lifetime's Army Wives displayed her towering vocals in an epic grand finale song, "This Is Not the End." Executives at SiriusXM caught wind of her captivating cover of Van Morrison's hit "Moondance" and added it into regular rotation, along with her award-winning original song, "When You've Got Trouble." After an impressive response from listeners, Longley was invited to perform live in the SiriusXM studios in New York City and was named one of their Coffee House Discoveries of 2011.
Following the success of her previous release, Hot Loose Wire, and an impressive crowdfunding campaign this past summer, Longley recently returned to the studio where she recorded her fourth full-length album which is scheduled to be released by Sugar Hill Records in early 2015.

Are you going to reply to every single person who has a different opinion? Save your energy, or bring new points to the table.
Markov is arguably the best player on the team, and he's the one with the most tenure. After he's busted his a** for 2 years rehabbing, I think the organization owes it to him to let him play as soon as he feels he's ready, provided he's been cleared by his doctors. This is not only the best thing for Markov to build his confidence back, but also for the organization - for a number of reasons which you've ignored.
You can disagree with that, and you're entitled to your opinion. But please stop trying to hammer the same point across over and over again as if everybody is dense and you're the only enlightened soul here.
Dude, folks are responding to my posts and I'm responding to them. Don't like it? Put me on ignore.
As far as new points go... what other points are there to bring to the table here? I've heard... it's about Pride, makes no difference if we get a lower pick, Markov will feel bad etc... I respond to these excuses as they come up.

Sorenson checks in with Mainieri
Eric Sorenson of CSTV recently checked in with one of our favorite baseball coaches in Paul Mainieri of LSU. He discusses many different topics including how much influence his father Demie Mainieri the legendary coach of Miami-Dade North Community College for over 30 years. Sorensen gets Mainieri to discuss how difficult it was to coach at Notre Dame with the strong academic standards and the horrible weather in the Northeast. There are some other suprises in the interview like how Tommy Lasorda is the godfather to Paul's youngest son and how former ND assistant Brian O'Connor of UVA hit it off with Mainieri. The full interview is available here.
Thanks to CSTV and Eric Sorenson for the great picture of Mainieri with former closer Ryan Doherty.

Tomorrow, When the War Began -- Film Review
The Bottom LineEmpty
SYDNEY -- Australia may finally have a homegrown blockbuster on its hands with the terrifically engaging "Tomorrow, When the War Began," an action-packed war film for and about teenagers. Based on the first in a series of best-selling novels by Aussie John Marsden, about a band of teens forged into guerilla warriors after a military invasion of Australia, this charged adaptation is going after the lucrative "Twilight" demographic with both guns blazing.
Victory at the local box office is assured and the film's potent mix of heroics and hormones suggests a triumphant march onto the international stage. Hopes for a franchise kick-off by emergent Sydney-based company Omnilab Media look solid.
Former soap star Caitlin Stasey steps up with a strong performance as 17-year-old farm girl Ellie, who rounds up a group of six friends for a carefree camping trip in an isolated idyll the locals ironically call "Hell."
They return to their homes in the fictional town of Wirrawee to find pets starved, power lines cut and -- horror of horrors! -- no cell-phone service. During their absence, a foreign army has invaded the country, occupied their town and turned the local show ground into a prison camp.
With eyes fixed firmly on a mainstream audience, the film carefully avoids any political subtext by referring to the enemy as a "coalition" of unnamed forces, although the invaders have an Asian profile. The action is ignited as the schoolmates adjust to their newly upended world, shouldering guns and fighting for survival before forming a guerilla resistance unit.
Sydney-raised scribe Stuart Beattie, here making his directorial debut, knows his way around a big-budget movie, having scripted Michael Mann's "Collateral" and contributed to the screenplays for the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films. The estimated $25 million budget, one of the largest attached to an independent Australian film, is modest by Hollywood standards. But Beattie milks maximum bang for buck, hurtling through a series of shoot-outs, car chases and explosions at a breakneck pace, while never losing sight of the human element that made Marsden's books so beloved.
Bolstering the war-time pyrotechnics is a universal coming-of-age story, with satisfying dollops of romance, drama and easy humor, and a standout performance from Deniz Akdeniz as goofball-turned-warrior, Homer.
The young adult protagonists are treated seriously and, beyond some awkward line readings and necessarily melodramatic teen dialogue, strong character development lends an occasionally far-fetched storyline emotional believability.
What could have become a risible "Rambo" meets "The Breakfast Club" mash up -- or worse, a clone of the jingoistic Brat Pack B-movie "Red Dawn" -- emerges as a solid entertainment with sequels in its future. Dramatic lensing by Ben Nott ("Daybreakers") fronts a polished technical package, with special effects and some tricky stunt work expertly handled.

The Philadelphia Eagles fired veteran defensive line coach Jim Washburn. The team announced the move in a press release distributed early Monday. Washburn was hired as the Eagles defensive line coach prior to the 2011 season after previously serving in the same role with the Tennessee Titans. Washburn's defensive line had been one of the most productive in the NFL in 2011, but are 26th in the NFL in sacks per pass attempt and have 20 sacks in 12 games. Washburn was not pleased when the Eagles released their leader in sacks, Jason Babin (5.5). Washburn coached Babin in Tennessee before helping lure him to the Eagles as a free agent before the 2011 season. Tommy Brasher, the Eagles defensive line coach in 1985 and again from 1999-2005, was promoted to replace Washburn. "Jim is a fine football coach and we appreciate the efforts he gave to this team over the past two years," said head coach Andy Reid. "However, I determined that it was in the team's best interest that we mov...
