Maquette is presenting you an elegant mockup of a three fine shopping bags as a part of "Diary of a Fashionista" Mockup Collection. It can be easily used for creating presentations or prototypes as well as for portfolio demonstration. "Dairy of a Fashionista" collection contains plenty of various shopping bags, boxes and other packaging types. This collection is intended for designers who are engaged in retail industry, fashion brands, clothing, footwear and accessories manufacture. We keep on following the fast growing requirements of the market. That's why our team has reached the revolutionary quality of mockups, looking photorealistic like never before and retaining a great variety of tuning for all product details. You'll feel all advantages of our mockup immediately just during the design process that takes few minutes.
Smart-objects for each product detail
We notably appreciate your time! Therefore we developed separate smart-objects for each mockup detail to make any adjustment of your corporative identity user-friendly. Models creation for final products was never so simple and stylish at once. If you'd like to change design of mockup object, just paste the chosen image to compliant layer and press "Save".
Totally editable background
No exceptions! Mockup background is a smart object as well and you can easily choose and apply identity colours depending on your preferences and certainly use the mockup in different projects. Styling now takes little time while background keeps its structure, texture and all the shadows, so it looks absolutely natural.
High Resolution
While creating mockups, we use the best equipment – photo camera and optics of high-end class and professional studio lighting. That helps us to save the texture of material, size and shape of light and shadows. That is why mockups look so photo-realistic giving you true tactile sensation. The quality of our mockup is enough for using in all types of presentations as A3 size catalogues, billboards, interior printing, media and, of course, web content. Full optimization for last generation of 5K displays is also available.
Realistic embossing effect
Blind embossing effect is now available not only in modern printing houses, but can be real-time used in our mockups. Feel the volume and depth of embossing and natural shadows!
Realistic Silver Hot-foil Stamping Effect
We improved silver hot–foil stamping effect and made it much more realistic. All light adjustments are now combined in a single layer that essentially saves time.
Realistic Gold & Color Hot-foil Stamping Effect
First and foremost we care for the products quality that we create. Our professional team knows all the niceties of printing and postprinting processes from A to Z. We consider all the features of paper texture and technique of symbols application while producing each imitating layer based on physics laws. We've tested how the light covers embossment material in our studio that helped us to achieve absolutely photo realism. We've updated hot-foil stamping effect as well and combined all light adjustments in a single layer to save your time. Foil color can be easily changed – just choose adjustment layer color. Additional color correction layer makes color choosing superfast.
Realistic Gold Embossing effect
All imitation layers with gold embossing effects are being developed based on real lighting conditions. You'll at once know how the final product with post production can look like. Gold Embossing Effect is also upgraded specially for this collection. Any packaging text or logo will now look more natural. Spare foil color tuning few seconds and you'll achieve incredible packaging design results.
Realistic UV Coating effect
"Dairy of a Fashionista" collection has gained one more absolutely new print-house effect. UV Coating Effect is often used in packaging design to make its look more interesting. This effect gives us a beautiful spot glossy at matte surface.
Style your image with Maquette actions
We understand the importance of developing a special unrepeatable style for each collection and have good news for you! 4 actions are available in each mockup for free! No need to look for necessary mockups in one unique style. Each collection subject will have the same style, chosen by you.

MIAMI, Fla. -- Barry University alumnus and Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent Alberto Carvalho was named Superintendent of the Year by the American Association of School Administrators (AASA). Carvalho was granted the honor during the AASA's annual conference in Nashville on Feb. 13.
Carvalho was one of four finalists for the award and was selected on evaluation of his leadership, communication, professionalism, and community involvement.
A nationally recognized expert on school reform and finance, Carvalho successfully transformed Miami-Dade's business operations and financial systems with the implementation of a streamlined strategic framework. Aligning resources to classroom priorities resulted in dramatic increases in reserves, bond ratings, and student achievement.
Under Carvalho's leadership, Miami-Dade County Public Schools won the Broad Prize in Urban Education in 2012, in large part because of the academic gains of its minority students. The graduation rate for Miami-Dade, Florida's largest school district, has risen by about 15 percentage points and now exceeds the state average.
Carvalho graduated from Barry in 1990 with a Bachelor of Science in biology. He began his career in education as a science teacher with Miami-Dade schools before becoming an assistant principal and chief communications officer. Carvalho was named superintendent in 2008.
As part of the award, a $10,000 college scholarship will be presented in Carvalho's name to a student attending the high school from which he graduated or a student attending a high school in the Miami-Dade school district.
Visit the AASA homepage for more information on the organization. Read the official AASA press release for more details as well as a profile of Carvalho.

VA's long list of performance failures
At a May 5 press conference in Indianapolis, American Legion National Commander Daniel M. Dellinger called for the resignation of Department of Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki, as well as Robert Petzel and Allison Hickey, VA's under secretaries for health and benefits, respectively. It was a decision the Legion arrived at gradually, after years of support.
What changed the Legion's mind was the accumulated effect of VA performance breakdowns across the country, coupled by the glaringly obvious failure to hold senior executives accountable for mounting numbers of preventable patient deaths, long-delayed medical care, and other critical management failures. Adding salt to the wound, VA continued to reward incompetent senior executives with bonuses paid for by taxpayer dollars.
Dellinger noted two of the most recent revelations that finally convinced him that top VA leadership in Washington needed to change: allegations that the Phoenix VA medical center kept a secret list of patients waiting months for medical care, which was linked by CNN to preventable deaths of about 40 veterans; and findings by a VA investigation that workers at the VA clinic in Fort Collins, Colo., had been instructed on how to falsify appointment records.
"Patient deaths are tragic, and preventable deaths are unacceptable," Dellinger told members of the Legion's National Executive Committee at the press conference. "But the failure to disclose safety information, or worse, to cover up mistakes, is unforgivable – as is fostering a culture of nondisclosure."
The Phoenix and Fort Collins allegations were preceded by many other failures at VA facilities over the past four years, including:
An audit of the Fayetteville VA Medical Center found its employees did not complete required suicide-prevention follow-ups 90 percent of the time for patients at high risk.
Six patient deaths were linked to delayed screenings for colorectal cancer at VA medical center in Columbia, S.C.
Five patients died and 16 more became seriously ill at the Pittsburgh VA medical center from an outbreak of the Legionella bacteria that was caused by human error
Three patients died while waiting for gastrointestinal treatment at the VA hospital in Augusta, Ga., which had an appointment backlog of more than 4,500 patients.
Four preventable deaths occurred at the Atlanta VA medical center among patients being treated for mental-health issues.
"The American Legion expects when such errors and lapses are discovered, that they are dealt with swiftly and that the responsible parties are held accountable," Dellinger said. "This has not happened at the Department of Veterans Affairs. There needs to be a change, and that change needs to occur at the top."

Hello people, This is my first post here after watching several of the intro videos....and I will probably have more questions after viewing all of them.
I dont have any experience or education aside from inheriting dozens of books on Buddhism and other traditions from my grandfather. This happened in a bizarre way I wont get into right now, but there is a book with a very bland cover called 'Dogen's Manuals of Zen Meditation' (University of California Press 1988) which has become the one I read most often.
My other interest aside from zazen is bodybuilding. This might seem like an odd combination but I think it helps. When you do core exercises the torso becomes like a tree trunk...very solid and much less prone to slumping.
Usually this works out as 30 minutes of sitting with a kitchen timer, followed by 15 minutes of deadlifts, squats, curls....then another 30 minutes of sitting. I feels good to have all that blood rushing through the legs when crossed.
I've been thinking about how to make the sitting sessions longer and food analogies came up with a vengeance.
1. Personally I think avocados are quite horrid. I know they are good for me, but its a struggle to eat one...and this is often what its like trying to sit still. I'm not a still person even waiting for a bus...always pacing back and forth like a caged tiger.
2. Wonderbread tastes like nothing to me. Its not disagreeable, nor is it delicious...and zazen is like that too, sometimes.
3. A good cupcake is a scintillating wonder and pleasurable to partake...you often read stories about rare events in meditation when outbursts of laughter or tears of extreme joy rise up and overpower the solemn propriety of the temple.
4. Finally there is the business of consuming oxygen itself...not very
interesting, but absolutely critical to life. And I wonder if zazen is like this too in some cases...cases where the monk feels like he cant live without it???
Does this happen in sequence...the more time spent in zazen the less difficult it becomes, the more pleasant it becomes, and finally the more essential it becomes?
This could also be imagined as a snowball rolling down a hill. At first its so small that pushing is required to get it started, gradually it has enough momentum to keep rolling on its own, faster and faster, larger and larger until no one can stop it. People start running for cover, friends and family are deserted, until it smashes into the ski chalet at the bottom of the hill...killing everyone inside!
Just kidding... -Eric.

Joanna Hogg
Artificial Eye
Joanna Hogg has earned an excellent reputation with her 2007 feature film, Unrelated. Her latest offering, Archipelago, is made in the same vein as her debut, in that it comments on the dynamic and often complex relationships between family members and wonderfully exposes moments of inner-awkwardness.
Edward (Tom Hiddleston) is about to embark upon a volunteer trip to Africa (odd that Hogg didn't choose a country, it's a big and diverse continent), and so his mother organises a family send-off on the Isles of Scilly. With the absence of his father, and his sister's erratic outbursts, the family is at breaking point. What is meant to be a serene family holiday turns into an emotional break-down.
With non-actor and real life painter, Christopher Baker, playing a painter/mentor, there are moments when the dialogue becomes stifling. Long shots and limited camera movement creates a sense of stillness, perfectly embodying the location. It's a new kind of cinema, giving viewers a stilted, but honest, portrayal – and that's the beauty of it, there's very little contrived.

PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. (AP) - A young giraffe named Elliot has died at ZooWorld in Panama City Beach.
The News Herald of Panama City reports a zookeeper heard a loud thud while making her rounds on Friday evening. She saw Elliot fall and then make his way to the outside paddock.
In a news release, zoo officials say the zookeeper called for assistance. The staff was able to get the giraffe to his feet and back inside the barn. There, he collapsed again.
Officials say a veterinarian diagnosed a spinal cord injury and began treatment. He later died.
Elliot was three weeks old when he arrived at the zoo in November 2012. A female giraffe was added in January. The zoo added the giraffes after a 23-year-old giraffe named Sidney died last summer.

NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) — Parents of children slain in the Connecticut school massacre called for a national dialogue to help prevent similar tragedies as New York moved to become the firststate to pass stricter gun control laws and politicians worked to confront gun violence.
Members of the newly formed group Sandy Hook Promise spoke out Monday, saying they want to have open-minded discussions about a range of issues, including guns, mental health and safety in schools and other public places.
" I do not want to be someone sharing my experience and consoling another parent next time. I do not want there to be a next time,' said Nicole Hockley, whose son Dylan was among the 20 first-graders and six adults killed by a gunman Dec. 14 at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The parents held photos of their sons and daughters as they cried, hugged and spoke in quavering voices. Some speakers said they did not believe there was a single solution.
" We want the Sandy Hook school shootings to be recalled as the turning point where we brought our community and communitiesacross the nation together and set a real course for change,' said group co-founder Tom Bittman.
While the Sandy Hook group did not offer specific remedies, mayors and governors in favor of tighter gun restrictions lobbied for a series of them on Monday, one month since the shooting.
In New York, lawmakers agreed to pass the toughest gun control law in the nation. Gov. Andrew Cuomo confirmed the proposal called for a tougher assault weapons ban and restrictions on ammunition and the sale of guns, as well as a mandatory police registry of assault weapons, grandfathering in assault weapons already in private hands.
The measure passed the Senate on Monday and is expected to pass in the Assembly on Tuesday.
Earlier, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg addressed a summit on gun violence at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore and argued for greater federal gun control, including background checks for all purchases and a federal crackdown on trafficking.
" Every state in the union has citizens killed by guns coming from another state and every state is powerlessto stop the mayhem,' Bloomberg said.
Bloomberg is co- chairman of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, whose members spoke out Monday in cities including Portland, Maine; Fort Wayne, Ind.; and Santa Fe, N.M.
In Cranford, N.J., a group of mayors backing new restrictions were joined by a man whose 23-year-old son was shot to death in the 2007 massacre at Virginia Tech.
" I'm just one member of a Virginia Tech family, Newtown has theirs, Aurora has theirs, Tucson has theirs, and now we're starting to come together,' Michael Pohle said. " This coalition is growing, and it's going to become more powerful, and we're going to have the ability to influence elections as well.'
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said he has ordered an analysis of city employee pension funds to see if they hold companies that make or sell assault weapons.
The gun control debate heated up after 20- year- old Adam Lanza shot his way into Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14 and killed 26 people before committing suicide as police arrived. He also killed his mother at their Newtown home before driving to the school andcarrying out the massacre.
President Barack Obama is reviewing proposals from Vice President Joe Biden, who is leading a task force on ways to reduce gun violence. Obama told reporters Monday he is looking at actions he can take on his own to confront gun violence amid resistance from the National Rifle Association and wariness among lawmakers from both parties.
The NRA has fiercely opposed new gun control laws and has called for "a meaningful conversation' about school safety, mental health issues and marketing violence to children.
A number of governors were already moving ahead with proposals to toughen state laws.
In Delaware, Gov. Jack Markell on Monday proposed background checks for private gun sales and a ban on military- style weapons. A package of gun control proposals also included a ban on magazines holding more than five rounds for rifles and 10 rounds for handguns, and a ban on guns within 1,000 feet of schools.
Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, speaking at the same Baltimore summit as Bloomberg, said he will be advocating a broadarray of proposals this legislative session, including a ban on combat- style weapons, stricter licensing requirements, school safety and mental health concerns.
" This will be a comprehensive legislative package to prevent gun violence, and it addresses not only the guns but also mental health and school safety,' O'Malley said.
Jeremy Richman, whose daughter Avielle was killed at Sandy Hook, said a deeper understanding of mental health issues is essential. He and his wife, Jennifer Hensel, started a foundation to explore issues such as risk factors and successful interventions.
Richman spoke at the same news conference as Hockley, who said she still fi nds herself reaching for her son Dylan's hand or expecting him to crawl into bed with her for a hug before school.
" It's so hard to believe he's gone,' she said.
In Stratford, Conn., where Victoria Soto had lived, the town council Monday decided to rename HoneySpot Elementary School after her. Soto, 27, was a teacher at Sandy Hook when she died trying to shield her students from the gunman.

Once a rough and gritty center for the steelmaking industry, Pittsburgh is now home to one lone blast furnace and a wide assortment of other industries. Pittsburgh has a tremendous base of headquarters operations for U.S. and some foreign companies in a variety of industries from banking to food processing to steel and heavy manufactured goods to pharmaceuticals. These include Alcoa, HJ Heinz, PNC Bank, PPG Industries, Mellon Bank, US Steel, Allegheny Technologies, Wesco, Bayer North America, GlaxoSmithKline, American Eagle Outfitters, General Nutrition Centers, and more.
The former grime and smoke have largely blown away, leaving a livable city with historic and revitalized neighborhoods and plenty to do. Employment is shifting from blue-collar to professional jobs, although there have been some dislocations in recent years due to mergers and general corporate downsizing.
Pittsburgh is a city of neighborhoods. Steep hills rise on all sides of town; some neighborhoods can be reached by a 19th-century incline tram from the central city. The neighborhoods have unique identities and the city's planning department recognizes more than 90 in all. The population is ethnically diverse. The downtown area is vibrant and active, with nightlife along the river and ample downtown shopping.
Excellent residential neighborhoods and suburban towns extend in all directions. The Moon Township area (west above the river) is the fastest growing and one of the best family areas, while older suburbs like Mt Lebanon and Bethel Park (to the south) and McCandless and Allison Park (north) are all worth a look. These areas have generously spaced, high quality housing for the price.
The area is well known for its sports, education, and cultural amenities. Pittsburgh has major league teams in football (Steelers), hockey (Penguins), and baseball (Pirates). Fan support and interest, particularly for the Steelers football team, is legendary. The new Heinz Field and PNC Park are attractive, accessible sports venues.
Educational opportunities are excellent, particularly with Duquesne and Carnegie-Mellon universities and the University of Pittsburgh. The city has excellent public transportation facilities, especially for neighborhoods closer to downtown. It is the major hub for US Airways.
Early industrial wealth endowed the city with numerous cultural assets. The Carnegie-endowed museums, the Pittsburgh Symphony, the PPG Aquarium and the zoo are all noted in their fields. For all of this, the Cost of Living Index is a bargain. Crime is also lower than expected given the area's gritty industrial history. The area is an excellent place for corporate professionals or small businesses supporting corporations, and is an excellent place to raise a family. The main downsides are weather (cloudy and variable), employment shifts, and some decayed areas.
Downtown Pittsburgh sits at the confluence of the "Three Rivers" (Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio), about 100 miles south of Lake Erie. Most of Pittsburgh lies in a narrow valley, with high, wooded bluffs surrounding the city. The climate is a humid continental type modified slightly by the Atlantic Seaboard and the Great Lakes. Summers are warm, still, and humid with periodic thunderstorms and occasional cooling from the northwest. Winters are cool and variable with intermittent periods of freezing and thawing. Precipitation is distributed evenly throughout the year. Cool northwest winds deliver moisture from the Great Lakes, creating persistent cloudy conditions and showers especially in winter. The area has the most cloudy days in the state, and is among the cloudiest in the country. Fog may persist in the valleys during colder months. First freeze is mid-October, last is end of April.

I left Pittsburgh for Cleveland and boy do I appreciate Pittsburgh now. Parts of Pittsburgh are blue collar but sections like East Liberty, Shadyside, Squirrel Hill and More
I will give Pittsburgh 5 Stars for the ability to raise a family but it certainly has deficits that I'll cover at the end. I grew up in a small river town 45 minutes More

Sporting KC to host MLS All-Star game in July
Major League Soccer is bringing its All-Star game to the home of Sporting Kansas City.
MLS Commissioner Don Garber announced Thursday that Livestrong Sporting Park would host the July 31 game between MLS All-Stars and an international club still to be determined. It will be the 10th time that MLS All-Stars have played an international opponent.
''This market has just been so incredibly exciting for all of us at Major League Soccer, and really for soccer fans throughout the United States and North America,'' Garber said. ''This has been one of the great, great success stories for our sport.''
Last year's game between MLS All-Stars and Premier League club Chelsea was played at PPL Park in Chester, Pa., just outside of Philadelphia. The MLS side won that game 3-2.
The opponent for this year's All-Star game will be announced at a later date, but Garber said that Sporting KC manager Peter Vermes would serve as coach for the MLS team.
The game in Kansas City, Kan., follows a successful showing by the metro area in hosting Major League Baseball's All-Star game last summer. Fans packed every event during the weeklong festivities at Kauffman Stadium, just across the state line in Kansas City, Mo.
''You want to really highlight how engaged Kansas City is in soccer, and I think that's going to be a phenomenal opportunity for us,'' Mayor Joe Reardon said. ''Last year's game against Chelsea in Philadelphia was fun to watch on TV. Now we're going to get to watch it right here.''
The past few years, MLS has brought its All-Star games to the smaller, soccer-specific stadiums that have popped up in its markets across the country.
Garber said it's important to reward those who invested in the facilities rather than playing the game at a larger stadium that could generate more revenue. That's why the game will be played at Livestrong Sporting Park, which opened in 2011, rather than at Arrowhead Stadium, the home facility of the Kansas City Chiefs.
''There's been a massive financial commitment by the team and the community to build this stadium, and they deserve to have this showcase rather than playing it in a larger venue where we could arguably make more money,'' Garber said. ''We're proud of that.''
Livestrong Sporting Park has already become one of the jewels of MLS. It hosted the U.S. Open Cup and CONCACAF Olympic qualifying rounds last summer, along with the CONCACAF Gold Cup the previous summer, when the $200 million stadium had just opened.
Sporting KC's average attendance last season, when the club won the regular-season Eastern Conference championship, was 19,404 - well over the listed seating capacity of 18,467, thanks to a number of areas where standing-room tickets are sold.
''The goal and vision for the club is to win MLS Cups. Let's always be clear,'' said Sporting KC CEO Robb Heineman. ''But this is a great day for the stadium and the city. It's the kind of event we always wanted to have, and for it to come to fruition so quickly is a great thing for us.''

Amigaweb.net Q&A With Bill Mcewen
5-Oct-2007 13:40:09
Internet News
has finally received the answers to the Q&A with Bill McEwen.
1) Do you think Adam from ACK Software Controls, as a single person, is capable enough to create reliable OS4 compatible hardware?
We are very confident in his abilities, and we are very pleased with the progress that has been made so far. Adam is creating the reference products that will be manufactured by another company and they will be the ones that make the hardware.
2) Do you have any contact with ACube or Troika regarding new hardware?
We do not.
3) Is there any hope of OS4 capable hardware released in 2007?
That is the plan, and hope.
4) Is there any hope for and OS4 licence for Elbox?
Unfortunately, because of legal proceedings, I cannot comment on matters related to OS 4.
5) Why don't you license/start selling Acube's Mac port of OS4 (project Moana)?
Same answer as the answer for number 4.
6) Why is not OS4 for Sam worked out yet? Regardless of the trial I guess both Hyperion and Amiga Inc. wants Amiga OS4 to be sold for that platform, or? So why wait?
Same answer as the answer for number 4.
7) What kind of hardware will OS5 be designed for?
OS5 scales to its host hardware, so anything from mobile phones through stbs, consoles up to servers. Initially covering software hosts Windows-D, Windows Mobile, Linux-D, Linux-E and Symbian for x86 and ARM, and possibly any high profile hardware host.
8) Why couldn't you licence Individual Computers Amiga 500 clone Projetc A? ( It seems like a product that could generate a lot of revenue. Just look at the success of the C64 DTV)
I am not familiar with this company or project. I would need to speak with someone there; my e-mail is firstname.lastname@example.com
9) Are there any plans for further development of Amiga OS4 if you're able to obtain the source codes?
Amiga intends to continue development of Amiga OS4 once legal matters have been resolved.
10) Is Amiga OS4 for mobile, set top boxes or other devices planned?
Please see the answer to question 4.
11) Is Amiga OS4 for x86 planned or of interest?
Please see the answer to question 4.
12) Amiga OS4 is working pretty well in it's current state, and the main problem at the moment is a severe lack of serious developers to create modern software. For instance web browsers, email clients, ftp clients, office software, video editing, sound editing, games, and so on. Do Amiga Inc. have any plans to support development groups or hire people to get these things fixed/done?
Please see the answers to questions 4 and 9.
13) If Amiga Inc. is unable to secure OS4 from Hyperion, will the new Amiga OS5 be totally different from OS4, and will it be able to run OS3.x and OS4.x applications?
OS 5 details will be more public in the 4th quarter this year. Then you will have your answers to this question.
14) What efforts will Amiga put in place to ENSURE that any transition of ownership will not hinder development and testing of OS4?
Not quite sure that I understand the question.
15) If you do secure OS4 sources, will you include parts of OS4 in OS5?
We want to continue working with the OS 4 team and share with them where we are in progress with 5, and then we can better determine the answer to this question.
16) You've claimed earlier that OS5 will be better than Mac OS X. Can you tell us in what way?
Details for OS 5 will be made public in the 4th quarter of 2007, and then you will have a much clearer understanding and I will let you decide if what I know to be true is accurate.
17) Could you give us some information, tell us about some of the features, and what the current status of OS5 is?
OS 5 is ahead of schedule, and we will be making public announcements concerning the product in the 4th quarter of this year.
18) Where is the OS5 development team located, and how many people are working on the project?
The current team members are in California, Washington, Michigan, England, New Zealand, Germany and Canada. More members are being added and the team will double before the end of this year as we are moving into other areas of development.
19) Will OS5 be a completly independent OS, or will it be hosted on some other platform?
Details will be given out to the public later this year.
20) When will there be a SDK for Amiga OS5?
Those details will be forthcoming.
21) How many people work at Amiga Development India, and is this company used at all for development of Amiga OS or Amiga related software development?
We currently have 63 employees in India and there are no members of the Amiga India team working on OS 5. They are working on other Amiga related products and initiatives. They also have their own products that were purchased by Amiga at the time of the acquisition and these are being sold in certain Asian markets.
22) What is the status of Amiga Anywhere and the situation with Tao?
Amiga Anywhere was in process of moving to our own solution, and this new solution is part of the new OS. The Tao situation simply moved up our timeline, as we expect to have the new Amiga Anywhere available in the next 30 days for public use and development.
23) What do you think will be gained by spending $10 million on the Kent Events Center?
This would have been an investment in technology. There are numerous new technologies that Amiga has developed or recently acquired, and the Event Center would have allowed us to deploy and test these technologies in a real world environment. Unfortunately, we were not able to reach a definitive agreement regarding the Kent Events Center.
24) Wouldn't it be better to spend the kent center money on end-user product development, or to resolve the issue with Hyperion, for instance by buying the whole company?
The Kent Events Center would have been an excellent investment for Amiga. However, we have moved on.
25) Discreet FX offered a while ago to buy Amiga Inc, is Amiga Inc for sale if the right price is offered?
We never received an offer to purchase Amiga. We received a questionnaire. Amiga is not for sale.
26) Can you tell us anything about your investors (Is their focus on OS4/OS5 or something else)?
Our investors are focused on our making money. From a technology standpoint they are focused on our core IP and building on our operating system work.
27) How do you respond to the questions regarding your integrity that have been raised in the local press such as the Seattle Times and the Kent Reporter?
My integrity is intact. Everything that we have said that we were going to accomplish we are indeed accomplishing. Almost every member of the Amiga team that was here from 2000 on is still with us. The rest of the team is here, and we are working together. I have also learned that the press can say anything they want to say, and print quotes with your name attached to them whether you said them or not.
28) In the era of the Mac mini, iPhone, $100 laptop, and Efika, what innovative products can Amiga Inc. bring to the information technology market?
Our plans and product strategy take all of the above question items and others into account. Until I am able to show it to you, I will just have to say that there is plenty of places for Amiga to succeed.
29) How will you get your products into mainstream computer stores?
Our products will be part of other larger company solutions. Amiga is the glue.
30) What is Pentti Kouri's business strategy with Amiga, Inc.? Was he the driving force behind the naming rights deal with the city of Kent?
Please see the answer to question 26. Other than that, I can't speak for Dr. Kouri.
31) Do you have any contact with the current Commodore company?
NDA's do not allow me to answer that question.
32) If Amiga/ITEC wins the lawsuit, how will you get access to parts of the sourcecode owned by the Friedens and external developers which are not included in the OS4-contract?
Amiga respects the valid intellectual property rights of developers. Otherwise, please see the answer to question 4.
33) Do you think the trial could be solved this year, or is this something that could drag out for years?
Please see the answer to question 4.
34) Is everything on hold until the trial is over?
Those projects that are Amiga OS 4 related are slowed down, but not on hold. We have moved the funds that were budgeted for OS 4 to OS 5 and two new products to accelerate their development.
35) Could you please elaborate how the expected returns from OS4 for a tiny niche market justify spending tens of thousands of dollars on a lawsuit?
Please see the answer to question 4.
36) How could you announce hardware availability in "Summer 2007" without having access to OS4-sources and with the knowledge that you start a complaint/lawsuit against Hyperion?
Please see the answer to question 4.
37) Is fleecy moss still actively involved with amiga inc?
Yes he is.
38) When can we expect any new announcements?
I would prefer not answering this question. It is not about announcements, it is about delivering products.
39) Will we see a return to Amiga being able to sponsor and attend Amiga shows in the UK & EU ?
We certainly hope so.
40) How do feel about making Amiga OS 1.0 to 3.1 Open Source?
Not going to happen.
Final notes – When we started our work as a team in 2000 we had many great plans and several OEM's, deals and goals to lead Amiga and the community to a bright new future.
Unfortunately, things did not work out as planned. Products have been delayed and resources were devoted to areas that did not produce what we needed, or what the community had asked for.
We are working very hard on delivering and building the products that you have asked for, and that you need.
I have been reminded time and again about the "Amiga curse." I certainly can say that there has been more than one time where I considered this to be real.
Today, we are an Amiga that is here to prove that not only is the curse not true, but that we are here to create and deliver products. That we are here to ship products, and while the Hyperion situation is a distraction it is certainly not everything that Amiga is. We are a tenacious group, and when others would have given up we stayed with it, and we are going to deliver.

Django sprint at EuroPython 2008
We'll be holding another Django sprint at EuroPython 2008 in Vilnius, Lithuania. And at the same time worldwide through IRC. The sprint days are from thursday July 10th until saturday July 12th.
This sprint will be focussed on getting the newforms-admin branch ready to be merged into trunk (see: this thread on google groups). More details will be posted here and announced on django-dev as we get closer to the time of the sprint.
Update: The latest report is that newforms-admin will be merged into trunk about a week before the sprint (see: here) therefore the sprint will focus on fixing these tickets.
What is a sprint?
Basically, a Django sprint is an excuse for people to focus their undivided attention, for a set time frame, on improving Django. It's a focused, scheduled effort to fix bugs, add new features and improve documentation.
Anybody, anywhere around the world, can participate and contribute. (See the "How to contribute" section below for details.) Most contributors will be at their own homes/schools/workplaces, but a number of people will gather together in person for camaraderie, improved communication and the other benefits of face-to-face interaction.
If you've never contributed to Django before, this is the perfect chance for you to chip in.
How to contribute
It's easy: Pick something to work on and do it. All sorts of tasks are available, from hard-core hacking to improving documentation to fixing small bugs.
Volunteers looking to get an early start should take a look at the SprintIdeas page.
Preparing for the sprint
Here are a few easy things you can do ahead of time to make sure your time is spent effectively:
- Read our "Contributing to Django" document.
- Install the "trunk" version of Django (aka the Django development version).
- Create an account in our ticket system. This will allow you to claim tickets you're working on.
- Familiarize yourself with our ticket system and reports.
- Get an IRC client, so that you can join us in the channel #django-sprint on Freenode.

From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Robert Siegel.
And I'm Audie Cornish.
The Winter Olympics gave us a match for the ages today: The U.S. and Canadian women's hockey teams fought for gold. The rivalry between them has been intense, and the final game lived up to its billing. The Canadians won in overtime, 3 to 2.
NPR's Tamara Keith was in the Bolshoi Ice Dome in Sochi, and joins us now. Hey there, Tamara.
TAMARA KEITH, BYLINE: Hey, Audie.
CORNISH: So the U.S. led for much of the game. What happened?
KEITH: Oh, my gosh. I think my heart is still beating from this game. It was - these teams are just so closely matched, and shots on goal were evenly matched. And through the first two periods, the U.S. women were up 2-0. And then in the last period, Canada got a goal. And then in the final minute of the game, they got a second goal - tying it up to go into overtime, 2-2.
CORNISH: And then for that overtime, we were all riveted here in the newsroom.
CORNISH: Explain what happened when it broke Canada's way.
KEITH: So they ended up - Canada ended out with a power play, which means they had an advantage. In fact, they had a two-person advantage on the ice. And they were passing the puck back and forth and then took a shot on goal, and the American goalie just couldn't quite get to it. And the Americans were really outmanned, at that point, because of the power play. After the game, we spoke with Julie Chu who's a forward on the American team. She said, you know, it just wasn't going their way.
JULIE CHU: Yeah, that's how momentum goes sometimes. You know, like, we were playing well. They scored a goal and then got another one a little bit later. But that sometimes happens.
KEITH: On the medal stand, I just have to say that all of the American women were crying. And, you know, it's this crazy thing - they were holding silver medals in their hands; they had silver medals around their necks. But that's not what they came to Sochi for.
CORNISH: And, of course, if you looked out into the crowd, there were many Canadians - right? - sporting their red and white. Describe the atmosphere in the arena.
KEITH: Oh, every time Americans tried to start - the few Americans there were - start this USA, USA chant, they were immediately drowned out by Can-a-da! Can-a-da! I ran into four Canadian guys dressed as Elvis with maple leaves on the back of their white suits.
CORNISH: That's confusing.
KEITH: Yes.
KEITH: Never mind that. But the ultimate was a man named Diego Lucero, who actually carved a maple leaf into the chest hair - his chest hair - and then dyed it red. He yelled so much during the game that he lost his voice.
DIEGO LUCERO: It was amazing - that first goal, and we lit up. And every - there was hope back in our hearts. And then that second goal - oh, my God, it was just amazing. And we knew it was coming. We knew deep in our hearts - that deep in our Canadian hearts that that was going to happen.
CORNISH: Now, Tamara, I want to take a quick moment to switch to a more serious topic. Given the violence between police and protesters in Ukraine, there have been some comments about this crisis in Sochi. Can you tell us about them?
KEITH: Yeah, Ukrainian alpine skier Bogdana Matsotska has said that she will not compete in the women's slalom event tomorrow because of the developments in Kiev. Her father and coach, Oleg Matsotska, wrote on Facebook that his daughter's withdrawal was a protest against what he called lawless action against demonstrators. Clearly, the violence in Kiev is affecting Ukrainian athletes here.
CORNISH: That's NPR's Tamara Keith, in Sochi. Tamara, thanks so much.
KEITH: You're welcome. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
