SAN ANGELO, Texas While the custody fight for the hundreds of children seized from the Fundamentalist LDS Church's YFZ Ranch has devolved into legal chaos, a criminal probe is quietly moving forward.
"The investigation is continuing," Texas Department of Public Safety spokeswoman Tela Mange said in an e-mail to the Deseret News. "When we have completed our investigation, we will present our case report to the prosecutors for their action."
An Austin appellate court's ruling that Texas child welfare authorities overstepped their authority in removing all of the children from the FLDS property has no bearing on the law enforcement investigation, Mange said. More than 400 boxes of evidence taken under the search warrants that were executed in the early days of the raid are still being examined.
Utah and Arizona authorities remain hopeful that they may be able to see some of that evidence to assist in their ongoing criminal probes into the FLDS Church and its leader, Warren Jeffs.
"We know there's going to be all kinds of stuff," Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff told the Deseret News on Monday. "The photographs, I think, are just the beginning."
Shurtleff was referring to a series of bombshell photos put into evidence during a custody hearing on Friday that show Jeffs kissing what Texas Child Protective Services lawyers said was a 12-year-old girl "how a husband kisses a wife." That hearing resumes here today.
A handwritten note on the photos indicates they were taken in July 2006, a month before Jeffs was arrested outside Las Vegas. Jeffs was later convicted in Utah of rape as an accomplice for performing a marriage between a 14-year-old girl and her 19-year-old cousin.
In Arizona, Jeffs is facing charges of sexual misconduct and incest as an accomplice. He is also facing a federal grand jury indictment for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, stemming from his time on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list.
During a court hearing for Jeffs in Kingman, Ariz., earlier this month, the Arizona Attorney General's Office raised the possibility that evidence seized from the raid on the YFZ Ranch might be used to pursue evidence against him.
"We have not yet provided anything to out-of-state investigators but expect that we will," Mange wrote.
Lawyers for the FLDS Church have objected to the search warrants that were served, noting that it appears the raid on the YFZ Ranch was sparked by a hoax call. Authorities have dubbed a 33-year-old Colorado woman a "person of interest" in their investigation into the calls to family crisis hotlines, in which someone claiming to be a 16-year-old girl named "Sarah" said she was pregnant and in an abusive marriage to 49-year-old Dale Evans Barlow.
Barlow, a convicted sex offender who lives in Colorado City, Ariz., was questioned but not arrested. A warrant for him is not being pursued, and lawyers for the FLDS Church accuse Texas authorities of knowing that he wasn't on the YFZ Ranch, even as they raided the compound.
"The State's actions in invading and searching a place of religious significance raises important and sensitive issues which lay (sic) at the intersection of religious liberty and the right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures," Gerald Goldstein, an attorney for the FLDS Church and leaders Merril Jessop and Lyle Jeffs, wrote in court papers.
He also suggested that any evidence seized may be protected because of clergy-penitent privilege.
On the final day of the police search of the YFZ Ranch, the FBI executed a federal search warrant. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Texas will only say it is part of a "pending investigation."
A task force examining polygamy-related crimes is gearing up. Shurtleff and his counterpart, Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard, are scheduled to meet next month with U.S. Justice Department officials, the FBI, the U.S. attorneys for Utah, Arizona and Nevada, as well as local law enforcement and prosecutors, to coordinate efforts.
"Right now, all I'm going to say is good stuff about the feds," Shurtleff said. "We're expecting great cooperation."
The task force was born out of a public feud Shurtleff and Goddard had with Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., who accused the two states of doing nothing about polygamy.
U.S. Attorney for Utah Brett Tolman told the Deseret News earlier this month that his office has tried to pursue mafia-style racketeering, corruption and child-bride trafficking cases but has been stymied by a lack of witnesses and other evidence to establish probable cause.
In San Angelo, Tom Green County prosecutors have said they are still interested in pursuing their own charges, which could include bigamy. The Texas Attorney General's Office has been named a special prosecutor for any criminal cases that may come out of the investigation.
The Mohave County, Ariz., attorney recently served a subpoena on the United Effort Plan Trust's court-appointed special fiduciary, demanding evidence seized from the Cadillac Escalade that Jeffs was riding in when he was arrested in August 2006.
The subpoenas seek iPods, CDs, notes, letters to the FLDS leader, religious papers, laptops and thumb drives by Friday. UEP fiduciary Bruce Wisan is fighting the subpoena, saying that he has a confidentiality agreement with Jeffs' defense attorneys. Copies of the evidence are in the possession of the FBI, Jeffs' defense team and Jeffrey L. Shields, the fiduciary's lawyer.
"Except for the requirements of the stipulated protective order, the fiduciary and Shields are ready, willing and able to comply with the subpoena as to all of the Escalade documents in the possession of the fiduciary," wrote Jeffrey Goldberg, another lawyer for Wisan.
Wisan has served his own subpoenas on Tom Green County prosecutors in San Angelo, seeking to look at the evidence that law enforcement officers seized from the YFZ Ranch.
"Please produce all documents or tangible objects that mention or relate to possession or ownership of the structure referred to as 'The Temple,' located on the YFZ Ranch near Eldorado, Texas," one subpoena said. "Please produce all documents or tangible objects that mention or relate to the funding used to acquire the YFZ Ranch located in Schleicher County, Texas."
Wisan is trying to collect on an $8.8 million default judgment against Jeffs and the FLDS Church. In 2005, the courts took control of the UEP Trust amid allegations that Jeffs and other FLDS leaders mismanaged it. The UEP Trust controls homes, businesses and property in the FLDS enclaves of Hildale, Utah; Colorado City, Ariz.; and Bountiful, British Columbia, in Canada.

Sheryl Sandberg of Facebook called the Netflix "freedom and responsibility" deck "the most important document ever to come out of the Valley."
The document is 124 pages and it outlines the principles behind the unique corporate culture at Netflix. It has had reverberations far outside of Silicon Valley and way beyond Netflix itself. The principles have been debated and adopted by organizations throughout the world. It has been viewed over fifteen million times.
Patty McCord helped write the document. She worked at Netflix for 14 years as the company's Chief Talent Officer. In her book, POWERFUL: Building a Culture of Freedom and Responsibility, Patty shares what she has learned about building a high-performance culture. I recently asked her to share more about her experience.
Challenge the Rules
You challenge many of the existing HR rules with new ways of thinking. What advice do you have for leaders that will help them embrace these changes?
It begins with questioning, literally, everything we do in HR: policies, procedures, guidelines, practices, permissions. What is the purpose of each of these activities? Do they achieve the desired result? If you started from scratch, would you embrace these methods?
"People can handle being told the truth, about both the business and their performance. The truth is not only what they need but also what they intensely want." -Patty McCord
Many people think that compensation rules the day, but you have a different philosophy. What's the "greatest motivation"?
I truly believe the greatest motivation is to be part of an amazingly talented team that gets real work done that matters to our companies and our customers.
"Be selfless in debating. That means being genuinely prepared to lose your case and openly admitting when you have." -Patty McCord

Helping you save for retirement
KiwiSaver is an easy way to save for your retirement, and can help you top up your retirement income. Plus, you could receive contributions from the government and your employer.
KiwiSaver is an easy way to save for your retirement, and can help you top up your retirement income. Plus, you could receive contributions from the government and your employer.
Once you turn 65, if you're eligible you'll receive New Zealand Superannuation.* The amount you receive each week depends on your circumstances. For example:
So, the more you save by the time you need to access your KiwiSaver account, the more you'll be able to enjoy your retirement. That's where KiwiSaver comes in.
* Rates current as at 01 April 2017. Please see the WINZ website for full details.
You can join KiwiSaver if you're employed, self-employed or even not working at all. See what kind of contributions you could be making here.
Usually, you can only access the money once you reach the Qualifying Age.** Find out how you may be able to access your money earlier, or take a savings suspension.
You could also qualify for some savings-boosting incentives.
** You become eligible to withdraw your savings when you qualify for New Zealand Super (currently age 65), provided you've been a KiwiSaver member for a minimum of 5 years (Qualifying Age).
It's easy to save directly through your pay. You choose to contribute 3%, 4%, 6%, 8% or 10% of your before-tax pay. If you're eligible, your employer will usually also make contributions. These will be equal to 3% of your before-tax salary or wages.
Your employer's contributions have tax taken out before they're added to your KiwiSaver account.
Once you've joined KiwiSaver, you could qualify for Government contributions. They'll add 50 cents for every dollar you save, up to a maximum of $521.43 a year. So if you contribute $1,042.86 or more to your KiwiSaver account by 30 June each year – that's just over $20 a week – you could get more than $500 extra a year from the government.

Breaking news has reported that P. Diddy has been involved in a dramatic car accident outside the Beverly Hills hotel in California.
The 42-year-old rapper appeared to be arriving at the luxe Beverly Hills hotel in California on the 24 October, when his chauffeur-driven Cadillac Escalade suddenly collided with a Lexus RX vehicle at the Sunset Boulevard entrance to the property, X17online.com reports.
According to the website, Diddy – whose real name is Sean Combs – and a second passenger were seen "sprawled on the lawn" in front of the complex. They were then escorted through the lobby by shocked hotel employees, who ran to help the 'I Need a Girl' hitmaker, his driver and a second passenger.
A short while afterwards, sirens were heard, with an ambulance and police arriving at the scene. At the moment, it is unknown whether the rapper or anyone else sustained any serious injuries, or who was at fault for the smash, but we certainly wish him and the others involved a safe road to recovery!

Wierd Mugshot – 'Cut Here' Neck Tattoo [PHOTO]
For some reason, Indiana can claim some of the oddest mugshot photos ever taken. This mugshot was released earlier today of Steven O'Bryant of Knox. He was arrested and accused of child molestation.
O'Bryant's mugshot displays an odd face tattoo, as well as a line across his neck with the caption "CUT HERE." There also appears to be a gun tattooed on his chest.
From WSBT-TV in South Bend:
Police say on July 8 a juvenile told them 43-year-old Steven L. O'Bryant molested him over a two week period while O'Bryant lived in his home. A warrant was issued for O'Bryant on August 17 and on the 20th he was arrested by Fort Wayne police.

Just when you thought that engine swaps were reserved for your own personal garage, we check out a rather industrial engine swap that we think will raise some eyebrows.
This time, we head into the garage to get a little bit greasy as some mechanics pull out the heavy artillery to handle this big time engine swap!
Instead of slapping another factory engine into this big rig, the Peterbilt is receiving a little bit of love with a massive CAT C15 coated in CAT Yellow!

Cynapsus Pharmaceuticals
Restoring movement with ease.
Overdrive was commissioned to rebrand Cynapsus Therapeutics in 2010 including collateral and website. Overdrive was then engaged again in 2014 for a brand strategy exercise and rebuild of the older site. With the client's signature pharmaceutical property for treating Parkinson's Disease symptoms moving closer towards commercialization, the outcomes of the brand strategy exercise indicated a focus on three main interest groups—patients, professional practitioners, and investors. This approach would be changed many times in the completion of the website which was launched in early 2016, but the overall design remained largely intact.
The goal was to create a website with multiple sections tracked to different site user demographics, each section containing easily digestible content written in a light/accessible tone. Deeper content is available in an archive of press releases and technical scientific documents hosted in a site database.
Visually, the centerpiece of the site is a series of fullscreen looping videos created with award winning cinematography Iris Ng. These are featured on the site's landing page and are intended to illustrate the benefit of Cynapsus' product to a typically older end user—that being the relief of freezing episodes and restoring physical movement for everyday activities.
Brand Strategy, Website, Full Motion Video
Overdrive Design Limited—Concept and Creative, Web Design, User interface, Web Development, Project Management, Video casting/art direction/production
Laila Zichmanis (Lumena: Brand Management)—Brand Strategy
Iris Ng—Video Footage, Lighting, Camera Work, etc.
Visit the Cynapsus website: www.cynapsus.ca
Note: The live Investors section on the current site is based on studies provided by Overdrive but is executed by a third party. Overdrive neither art directed or project managed that section of the site and therefore is not responsible for the outcome of the end product.

Women have always desired to keep up with fashion trends, and to look their best regardless of occasion. However, what many women often fail to understand is that their everyday looks should be just as stylish as their evening ones, and this implies being careful not only with their clothing choices, but with their makeup and accessories as well. If you want to step up your beauty game, then it is imperative to consider a few tips. Finding an online fashion store or a makeup boutique is easy, but you need to know how to make use of all the amazing items offered by today's beauty industry. Consider the following beauty and fashion tips, and looking stylish and glamorous is guaranteed.
Accessories make a difference
Regardless of what designer dress or jeans you are wearing, without the right accessories, your overall look will seem incomplete. Whether you feel like wearing a white t-shirt with a pair of skinny jeans, or a plain skater dress with some sneakers, you can make any outfit combination you choose seem more stylish and appealing just by accessorizing it correctly. This season it is all about sunglasses. A pair of designer mirrored style or over-seized aviator sunnies will give your look a touch of fabulousness instantly. So it is not always about the clothes you wear, but how you choose to combine and accessorize them. Vintage and cat-eye frames are also trending at the moment. Choose a designer pair that suits your face shape best and rock any outfit you want to wear.
Natural eye makeup and a bright lip – ideal for daily looks
Leave that intense smokey eye makeup looks for parties and during the day choose natural ones instead. A black gel liner and some mascara will be sufficient for the eyes, what you should be focusing more on are the lips. Wear a bright lip colour, either matte or glossy, it's up to you. Find an online store that can provide you with the best makeup products, because quality is important when it comes to makeup.
Statement necklaces – make any dull outfit stand out
On those days when you lack inspiration, and any piece of clothing in your closet seems dull, you can feel more confident in your look, by putting on a statement necklace. A colourful statement necklace will draw instant attention, and your overall appearance will definitely be a stylish one. Body chains and chockers are also a fashionable option.
If you are like most women out there, then you probably wish to have an impeccable appearance. You can look glamorous and stylish on a daily basis, if you have a few tricks up your sleeve. The accessories and makeup looks you wear are more important than you have ever imagined, so keep these tips in mind, and choose to be flawless every day of the week. Start looking online for this year's must-haves in terms of fashion and makeup, and impress all your friends with your remarkable sense of style. You can find many fashion online stores, such as Diva Approved London, that can give you the chance to purchase all the beauty essentials you need, starting with makeup products and up to stylish jewellery.

This project was conducted in collaboration with the University of Southern Mississippi-Gulf Coast Research Laboratory. The overall goal of this project is to evaluate the feasibility of each biosecure marine shrimp production system developed by the member institutions of the U.S. Marine Shrimp Farming Program.
The development of modular indoor shrimp production systems is desirable for bio-security against shrimp diseases. In addition, such systems can be located inland, away from coastal sites that may be infected with shrimp viruses. Mobility of site location can also provide a quality shrimp supply to regions with high consumer demand. If enclosed bio-secure shrimp production systems are economical to operate they will have a future in the U.S. Years of research have resulted in viable indoor, bio-secure shrimp production facilities, but production cost estimates and financial measures of success are needed to analyze a diverse set of alternative rearing schemes and assist investors in their decision-making process.
The Bio-economic Recirculating Shrimp Analysis Software (contact MSU Office of Technology Management OTC ID 0372) was originally developed to aid consortium researchers determine the viability of their production systems under presently obtainable biological production scenarios as well as to assist them in predicting their system's economic performance under foreseeable future production levels and economic costs. The model's objectives have evolved to evaluate the economics of commercial-scale ventures as well. Specifically, the model aims to provide a simulation tool that quickly analyzes the profitability of alternative biological, financial, and construction options for indoor bio-secure recirculating shrimp production system; the model will assist consortium scientists evaluate current and future research efforts toward developing viable production systems; and to assist investors in their decision-making process toward adopting these shrimp production systems.
The logical expansion of the Bio-economic Recirculating Shrimp Analysis Software would be to look at vertical integration of the hatchery, nursery, production, and processing components. A processing component would provide information on the amount of shrimp required to make its operation efficient and profitable, leading back to the number of recirculating greenhouses (nursery and production components) and hatcheries systems required to supply the processors need. It is not required that only recirculating systems be used to supply the processing sector and modeling of a low salinity component and a pond component seem logical. These suggested future work items begin to reveal the critical mass of components required to make consortium production systems viable in the U.S. Economic modeling can provide one way of envisioning this future.

How to find early death records?
Can anyone tell me where I can obtain early death records (before 1950) that are complete? I have found my family listed in the record book with only their death dates recorded. I want to find out if there is an actual record to go with it listing things like their parents name and/or what they died from. Every time I try contacting the state and local office where they died at, I don't even get a "sorry we can't help you" response. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Lorine

Fort Worth
Fort Worth killer on Death Row loses Supreme Court appeal
The U.S. Supreme Court has refused to review an appeal from a Fort Worth man on Death Row for smothering an 89-year-old man and robbing him of some $6,000 in 2004.
The high court, without comment, ruled Monday in the case of 36-year-old Tilon Lashon Carter. He does not yet have an execution date.
Carter's appeals have focused on whether his Tarrant County trial attorneys were deficient and whether faulty instructions were given to trial jurors.
Carter was condemned for the robbery and slaying of James Eldon Tomlin, a retired Bell Helicopter employee and disabled veteran, at his Fort Worth home.
Prosecutors said Carter and his girlfriend, Leketha Allen — whose mother, a prostitute, had a 20-year relationship with Tomlin — went to Tomlin's home on April 28, 2004, to rob him.
Later that day, Tomlin's daughter found her father dead. Tomlin had been struck in the head, and his feet and hands were bound with duct tape. His mouth was taped.
The Tarrant County medical examiner's office ruled that Tomlin died from positional asphyxiation and that someone also smothered or attempted to smother him.
Investigators found over $20,000 cash hidden in containers inside Tomlin's house and car. Allen and Carter made off with a shotgun and some coins.
During closing argument, prosecutors portrayed Carter as a longtime criminal whose violence was escalating and who deserved the death penalty.
After getting sentenced, Carter's grandmother said her grandson was "framed" and that "we'll try and get it appealed."
A week after Carter was sentenced, Allen reached a deal with prosecutors and received a 25-year sentence for her role in the robbery and shooting. She remains in prison with a projected release date of 2029.
This report includes material from the Star-Telegram archives.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — For the longest time, going all the way back to middle of summer, we weren't sure what it was Chris Paul was looking for.
We heard the rumors. Then we heard from him, dispelling the rumors. And then came the sit down meeting with the Hornets' brass and word that everything was good.
But we still had no idea what it was CP3 wanted.
Then the season started and everything cleared up. The Hornets rolled to the best start in the league and went about their business like the summer and all the drama had never happened.
We see it now. Chris Paul wants his crown back, the one Deron Williams, Rajon Rondo, Steve Nash, Derrick Rose and several others have tried on in his absence from the throne as the NBA's top point guard.
Even better, Paul is going about getting it back the ol' fashioned way, he's going to earn it back. It always helps when the organization has your back. And the Hornets are making all the right moves these days.
Their weekend trade — Toronto sent Jarrett Jack, David Andersen and Marcus Banks to New Orleans for Peja Stojakovic and Jerryd Bayless — is just the latest master stroke of new GM Dell Demps, who knows a thing or two about building a winner after working in San Antonio prior to taking over the Hornets in the summer.
(The Nuggets might want to take notes or at least call Demps for some pointers, what with Carmelo Anthony's name being mentioned more prominently than Paul's in nearly every trade rumors since draft night.)
The message the Hornets are sending is as simple as it is impressive. If you want to keep your superstar happy and in the fold, don't just talk about it, act like it!
The Hornets have not only reshaped the roster and shown Paul that they can put the winning pieces around him, they've also slid out from under the looming guillotine of the luxury tax, proving that you can be proactive and tax-minded at the same time (while retaining just enough usable assets to make more moves, if need be, in the coming months).
Think about all the work the Hornets have done since summer, all of the new faces that have been added and all of the dead weight tossed overboard. It's a rather remarkable makeover on the go when you sit back and admire the changes. And they've used a splendid mix of old and new to run off this 11-1 start, which is a product of the approach of coach Monty Williams (the defensive-minded Hornets have allowed just one opponent to score 100 point so far).
David West and Emeka Okafor are playing fantastic basketball right now, as the top-flight recipients of Paul's assists tend to do. But raise your hand if you knew where Marco Belinelli's played this time a year ago. Trevor Ariza, Willie Green and Jason Smith are all doing their part. And the additions of Jack and Andersen give the Hornets some much-needed depth.
With Jack in the backcourt rotation, he can play both spots, ensures that Paul's minutes can be managed throughout the course of the season and the Hornets can continue their feel good story for the foreseeable future.
In the meantime, it might be time for someone to get Paul his crown back!

The origins of Bock beer are quite uncharted. Back in medieval days German monasteries would brew a strong beer for sustenance during their Lenten fasts. Some believe the name Bock came from the shortening of Einbeck thus "beck" to "bock." Others believe it is more of a pagan or old world influence that the beer was only to be brewed during the sign of the Capricorn goat, hence the goat being associated with Bock beers. Basically, this beer was a symbol of better times to come and moving away from winter. As for the beer itself in modern day, it is a bottom fermenting lager that generally takes extra months of lagering (cold storage) to smooth out such a strong brew. Bock beer in general is stronger than your typical lager, more of a robust malt character with a dark amber to brown hue. Hop bitterness can be assertive enough to balance though must not get in the way of the malt flavor, most are only lightly hopped.

During the summer of 2012, I worked as a user interface designer for a UC Berkeley online education project with goals to create an open source online learning platform, where university classes could be put online and anyone in the world could take the classes. My team and I joined the edX development team in July 2012, after UC Berkeley decided to align with edX, due to our similar goals for open source and non-profit educational experiences. (edX is an online learning collaborative founded by MIT and Harvard.)
After joining edX, I began working on UI design for the existing edX courseware platform, and one of the first mini-projects I was assigned was to redesign the question grouping interface. This was only a very small part of the platform, but was important to several courses that would feature multiple answer questions. This project consisting mainly of a bit of sketching and high fidelity mockups, as well as testing out potential designs in HTML / CSS.
(Yes, this is a very small design decision, used mostly for illustrative purposes to explain my design decision-making process while working at edX, from sketch to mockup to code.)

Q&A: Rebecca von Lipinski
Posted on January 26, 2011
Soprano Rebecca von Lipinski joins Manchester Camerata this Saturday along with mezzo soprano Anna Grevelius, tenor Peter Wedd, baritone Roderick Williams and the CBSO Chorus for our momentous B9 concert!
Here she answers some searching questions about her life and career to date.
Q. How old were you when you started singing? When did you actually know you wanted to be a professional singer?
|A. I really can't remember a time when I didn't sing. I grew up surrounded by music as my mother was an amateur singer and loved music of all kinds. I sang in the school choir and had my first solo in my local church aged 7, Then at 11 I joined a local girl's choir called 'Cantamus' which was advertising in our local paper for girls between 11 and 18 to audition for the choir and for (more importantly) singing lessons (which Mum thought I would enjoy). I did this as out of school activity as my local comprehensive didn't cater for any musical studies at the time. After a few years I moved through the hierarchy of the choir and eventually ended up having lessons with the director and conductor of the choir, Miss Pamela Cook MBE aged 16. She then suggested that I could go to university to study singing when I was 18. I really didn't know that you could do this and so Miss Cook pointed me in the right direction. Even then I didn't know that I wanted to become a professional singer. I then went to the Royal Northern college of Music in Manchester and it was only in the last year of undergraduate when they gave me the understudy of First lady in Magic Flute where I thought that maybe I can do this. Maybe I could be a singer. It's been hard and it's not easy but I can't imagine doing anything else. I feel very lucky to have been allowed to sing for a living. My Mum and dad would be very proud of me!!!
Q. You have some French, Polish and German ancestry, so singing in numerous languages must come easily to you. With this in mind, what would you say are the easiest and most challenging languages to sing in?
|A. Even though I do come from a varied background, I was fully raised in the UK and only really speak English (with a smattering of German) but was surrounded by different languages (Polish and French especially) from a very early age. However, sadly, I do not speak any of these fluently but was immersed (especially by my Father's parents) in their day to day lives. It is strange then to have a natural affiliation with the German language and it's music. Through classical singing, the 4 main languages you deal with are English, German, French and Italian and you find that you have a natural way with one or another. Thankfully I have done a lot of English and German rep but do hope to expand more into French and Italian. But I have done everything from Finnish to Japanese and Catalan to Russian. It can be very challenging at times!
Q. Apart from Beethoven, who would you say is your favourite composer and why?
|A. There is so much to choose from!! I do love Mozart, Richard Strauss and Puccini. I think that you connect with some composers better than others but these 3 really tug on my heart strings. But I don't generally tend to listen to classical music all the time as sometimes I need to really relax and switch off. I love everything from Nat King Cole (my father's favourite) to Frank Sinatra (one of the best singer's of the 20th century) and U2, David Bowie, Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Oasis. I think that you need to have many musical influences in your life. There is so much out there so why ignore it??
Q. Who is the most inspirational musician you've worked with so far and how have they influenced you?
|A. I have worked with many inspirational people in my short career but several people stand out. Pamela Cook was simply the main reason for my being in this career. She believed in me and encouraged me and still does to this day. She is so wonderful and has had huge and positive influence on so many young girls' lives in the area of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire where I grew up. I owe her so much and will never forget her kindness, encouragement and continued love. She is one amazing woman!! I have also worked with Richard Jones, who was the director on 'The Bitter tears of Petra von Kant' at ENO, 2005, who's ideas and vision was just exceptional. He created something brilliant and interesting out of something so difficult and complicated. He made it look easy and effortless and helped the very small cast to come to grips with something so difficult and taxing. I try to go and see everything that he creates, if I can. Also, in one of the last years I was at the Royal Northern, I won the Michael and Joyce Kennedy Award for the singing of Richard Strauss. The adjudicator was the fabulous singer and performer Dame Felicty Lott. It was just an unbelievable privilege to just meet her, never mind work with her! She has and has had the most wonderful career and is a fantastic singer. I have seen her perform many, many times in operas and concerts. She is a constant inspiration to me and hope to have the opportunity to work with her one day.
Q. Apart from music, what are some of your other interests?
|A. One of my main passions is Film. I'm a huge fan of everything and anything to do with film and am a bit of a film geek. I have more dvd's and blu-ray's than I can count and read as many autobiographies on actors and actresses I can get my hands on. It's fascinating on discovering how they work and how they overcome difficulties in their profession. I think if I wasn't a singer then I would have loved to have had the opportunity to become an actress. I'm currently reading Dame Judi Dench's and Stephen Fry's autobiographies and thoroughly enjoying them too. I also love to spending time with my family and walking my 2 Shetland sheep dogs.

Eagles Abroad is brought to you by Grubber, makers of fine sporting apparel.
It was a fairly skimpy weekend for Americans overseas with the Six Nations causing the Premiership and the Pro12 to mostly take the weekend off. That said, there was an important semi-final for the Americans at Saracens as they took on Leicester in the LV= Cup. Unfortunately it didn't work out well for them as they lost but Titi Lamositele did put in a half and hour or work. Outside that the only other match in the the UK top leagues was U.S.-eligible Callum Black turning out for Ulster in their big win over Zebre. Down in France, Samu Manoa came off the bench for Toulon as they stomped all over Bayonne. Eric Fry saw time for Vannes in the Pro D2.

The Chef's Library is a series in which we ask chefs around town to tell us about their favorite cookbooks. Today, we talk to John Sedlar, chef and owner of Rivera and Playa.
John Sedlar is plotting a sea change (pardon the pun) for Playa. "I'm in the thick of changing my current Playa menus, introducing my new 'high Tijuana' menu," he says. It will incorporate "lots of Baja cooking influences with my Cielo Verde rooftop garden ingredients.
"I've been eating in Tijuana for years, and it seems that now is the perfect time for Angelenos to adopt this Baja Med style of eating, so perfect for the culture and tastes of our city," Sedlar says. "I've decided that Rivera will continue to be our opulent homage to the Latin kitchen and cooking history, while Playa will celebrate more barrio street seafood' mixed with the Playa's rooftop fresh lettuces, herbs and vegetables."
As such, Sedlar is turning to his library. "I'm immersed right now in exploring fish and seafood from Baja, so I've been wearing out two books in particular from my cookbook library that approach seafood from a different perspective."
The first is Go Fish: Fresh Ideas for American Seafood by Laurent Tourondel. "Tourondel is a master of seafood cookery, and offers ideas and inspiration for any menu featuring fresh seafood, regardless of the cuisine," Sedlar says.
If you like this story, consider signing up for our email newsletters.
You have successfully signed up for your selected newsletter(s) - please keep an eye on your mailbox, we're movin' in!
The second is Cuisine of the Water Gods: Authentic Seafood Cookery of Mexico by Patricia Quintana. "Patricia is a longtime friend of mine, and we've visited and cooked in each others restaurants."
Chances are we'll see the influences of both of these books on the Playa menu in the upcoming months.

What you need to know
Provost Baldasty invited a pilot group of 90 laboratories, encompassing 33 scientific departments, to work with EH&S on the initiative. These laboratories are representative of many complex laboratories using hazardous chemicals and have opportunities for improving their performance ratings.
While all other research laboratories will continue to be surveyed for laboratory safety every 12 to 18 months, the pilot group will be surveyed three times over a 24-month period by EH&S professionals, who will work with them to provide coaching, tools and expertise aimed at improving laboratory safety profiles. Support, such as the provision of personal protective equipment, recognition for high-performing laboratories, and other appropriate provisions, is being considered as an incentive for participation in the pilot group.
Provost Baldasty has appointed an advisory task force consisting of departmental deans, chairs, principal investigators, lab managers, administrators and safety professionals to advise EH&S for the duration of this initiative. The knowledge and expertise of this task force, combined with the collective knowledge of the laboratory community, will help ensure that this initiative will facilitate safe research which meets requirements for health and safety and adds value to the University's mission.
