By Kim Hasty
He had an air of gentility about him. A measure of elegance. A touch of sophistication.
And, always, just the slightest twinkle in his eye.
Fayetteville lost one of its truest gentlemen July 12 when Dougald MacMillan died at age 87.
Col. William Dougald MacMillan IV was a man who once commanded forces through Vietnam with valor.
He was a man who, later in life, would go on to ensure that calmer heads always prevailed in a much less treacherous, but still intense, field of battle.
Through it all, he never lost his sense of humor.
"He knew there were times, when propriety should be set aside,'' said the Rev. Robert Alves.
Alves was speaking at the service at St. John's Episcopal Church celebrating MacMillan's life. Those in attendance remembered a man who spent 33 years in the Army, then spent the years after his retirement helping to start the Fayetteville Area Tennis Association and the N.C. Professional Tennis Umpires Association.
Most of all, he enjoyed spending many an afternoon over a cup of Earl Grey with his wife, Tori. Victoria MacMillan died in 2011.
For years, the MacMillans enjoyed annual treks to the U.S. Open in New York and to the Lipton Championships in Key Biscayne, Fla., where Dougald MacMillan worked matches for the likes of Chris Evert, Martina Navratilova, Steffi Graf, Jennifer Capriati, Ivan Lendl and Pete Sampras.
A fair player himself who competed in doubles well into his 70s, MacMillan and a group of fellow tennis devotees started the Fayetteville Area Tennis Association in 1985. Though the organization lost its charter in 2000, MacMillan was awarded its Lifetime Achievement Award in 1992.
At the banquet announcing the award, MacMillan sat in his seat and tried his best to figure out who it was that emcee Gil Bowman was citing for years of hard work and leadership. Only when Bowman finally mentioned something about the U.S. Open, did MacMillan figure out he was the recipient.
''That kind of gave it away,'' MacMillan said.
He was known as a meticulous organizer who was always punctual despite a hectic schedule.
But now and then, he could depart from tradition.
Nephew John MacMillan remembers a story from his own wedding day.
His Uncle Dougald was driving him and his wife to the Greensboro airport for their honeymoon. The newlyweds had the chance to use special tickets courtesy of a family member. The tickets required a particular dress code.
"I thought I had dressed up sufficiently, but found that pleated twill slacks were one notch below appropriate,'' John MacMillan said. "Uncle Dougald gave me his seersucker trousers that he had worn to our wedding, and although he was several inches shorter than I, they miraculously fit.
"Upon our return home,'' he said, "I found in the mail a very clever poem from Uncle Dougald entitled "My Britches Went On A Honeymoon And I Went Home Alone.''
The final verse to the poem:
"Now when my days have ended and I go to my reward,
Of all my wedding-guest memories, this is the one I'll guard:
Though many gifts were given, none was better than this loan
When my britches went on the honeymoon and I went home alone."
"Thanks, Uncle Dougald,'' John MacMillan said, "and farewell.''

2-for-1 with Jet-of-Steam and Self-Cleaning
A powerful burst of steam helps remove stubborn wrinkles when ironing. It also helps clean the steam vents on the soleplate after ironing.

The spay mist button helps eliminate stubborn wrinkles by directing extra moisture where necessary.
Vertical Steam
With the push of a button, the vertical steam feature allows you to direct a burst of steam to hanging garments

Product Description
Want to make sure that your water is clean, healthy, and tasting great? Perfect, because that�s exactly what the DA29-00020B filter does. The filter takes your municipal or well water and passes it through activated carbon, which traps many of the contaminants found in tap water. The clean water is then passed on to either be drank or made into ice. We offer three different DA29-00020B models: the OEM Samsung replacement, the aftermarket Supco replacement, and the aftermarket Swift Green replacement, which is made from an eco-friendly process. Each filter model has a filtering capacity of 300 gallons and has a water flow rate of a half gallon per minute. Installing these filters is extremely easy, and we suggest that the filters be changed at least once every six months to ensure that your water remains as healthy and clean as you want it to be.

I only heard of Paladins being good. However, was there any instances of Paladins being evil? Is it physically possible for Paladins to be evil?
In AD&D1E, and the predecessor "Classic" D&D, the Paladin is not permitted to be Evil. A Dragon article (Laking & Mesford, Dragon, Issue 39, GOOD got you down? Try this for EVIL: The Anti-Paladin NPC. Reprinted in Best of Dragon Vol II) provided for an Anti-Paladin, who is in essence a lawful evil paladin. So, yes, there is an Evil Paladin, but he's not JUST a paladin gone wrong; his powers are changed slightly. Further, as noted by Wimanric, there's the Dragon 106 article giving the various other flavors. Later editions (3.X) used Blackguard to represent fallen paladins; the resulting characters look like toned down antipaladins. And, per AD&D1E and 2E, a Paladin gone wrong is just a fighter (or Cavalier, if using Unearthed Arcana). Further, under AD&D1E + Unearthed Arcana, Cavaliers can be evil, get many of the specials of being a Paladin and fewer restrictions. Many other games also use the term Paladin; some have them as Good only; others less restricted. | |||||||||||||||||||||
This depends a lot on the type and historical period (or not) that the game is set in. The earliest uses of Paladin are Palatine which as a high official of the sovereigns court. It is only later tales of Charlemagne and Arthurian that give us the concept of the Holy Knight. So it all depends on the background to the game. Paladin can just be a member of the King's Guard, one of his trusted nobles or a holy knight. In DnD 1e to 3e they had to be Lawful Good but in Fourth they do not. | |||||
In Dragon #106, there were versions of paladins for all the non-LG 1st Ed AD&D alignments. | |||||
For D&D 3.5/Pathfinder: My answer is No. A paladin as written must be LG. But! There have been paladin variants written that are evil, see Paladin of Slaughter and Paladin of Tyranny. imho these are not Paladins, and I would not allow them in any game of mine. There is also the Blackguard prestige class which gives a fallen Paladin (one who has broken the Paladin code) special abilities. http://www.d20srd.org/srd/prestigeClasses/blackguard.htm | |||||||||
I would say that the crusading knights that founded the Templare orders and any Knight of the Temple afterwards were Paladins in real life. The Sohei of Sengoku Japan were described as warrior monks and thus could well be modelled as Paladins as well. You could even argue that the Shaolin temple monks were Paladins. So, I see no problems in Paladins being any alignments and culture whatsoever. Edit for clarity: I do not say that all crusaders were evil. Some were, some were not. This is real life, there are shades of grey. Go read books on the crusades (I recommend Crusades: the illustrated history by Thomas F. Madden as a good start), you will be both horrified and pleasantly surprised. However, I always had a problem with a LG character class those mission was to kill those not of his religion but that's okay because they only kill bad ones. Hum... | |||||||||
In their introduction, paladins are clearly modelled on the chivalrous tradition coming from Arthurian legend, and from idea of a pious crusader in the mold of the Templar knights, as Sardathrion and David essentially say. If only I had my 1st ed. AD&D books to hand, I'm sure I could find supporting quotes for this in under a minute. Rules for D&D that spoil the romantic connection to these types are spoiling the interest of the game and debasing the gaming community - please do us a favour and don't have them in your campaigns. I'd say it's essential to good D&D of any flavour that paladins virtuously and chivalrously adhere to (i) obedience to a liege, and (ii) piety. The obedience to a liege bit pretty much makes chaotic paladins impossible. Trying to run an evil PC/NPC that is at once, evil, virtuous, and pious I think is hard, but not impossible. And the connection to the Arthurian legend brings up a point: the "best knight", Lancelot, one of its two strongest models, with Parsifal, for paladin, was driven into a situation that destroyed the round table and led to the rise of Mordred, stemming from his chaste pursuit of courtly love. The paladin's code is a great basis for tragedy, and good tragedy makes the deeds of the best lead to terrible evil. Just don't inflict tragedy on your PCs unaware: they hate it. The rule book for Pendragon is a great place to mine for ideas about how to develop the chivalric side of paladinhood. | |||||||||||||

Hi, my calipers arrived today. Just tried them out (averaging 4 readings - all of which read the same anyway). Got a fat-percentage value of 19.6. Used my Tanita balance and got a fat-percentage of 20.6. I'd say they were reading pretty closely the same and since the calipers cost £3.99 and a flimsy piece of plastic and the balance cost £500 and is a complex, calibrated piece of precision electronics, I'm inclined to believe the balance!
Interesting experiment though.
Kind Regards

Washington, DC Sunday, February 17, 2013
This week on Newsmakers, our guest is Rep. Harold Rogers (R-KY), Appropriations Committee Chairman. He discusses the continuing resolution he's been working on to fund the federal government. His plan would extend the current Continuing Resolution (CR) for most agencies through Sept 30, but would have more detailed instructions for the Pentagon and veterans programs. He says the House could consider the CR near the end of the February, before the sequester cuts would go into effect. on March 1. The Rogers plan, if passed, would avert a government shutdown that could happen March 27 when the current CR is due to expire.
Our guest reporters are Andrew Taylor, Associated Press Congressional Reporter and Roxana Tiron, Bloomberg News Congressional Reporter.

Although reptiles are not universally liked or appreciated, they have long fascinated people. Mere mention of the word reptile brings shudders to some, while to others it conveys visions of elegance and beauty. Reptiles belong to the class Reptilia, which includes alligators and crocodiles (crocodilians), turtles, lizards, snakes, and the tuatara, a lizard-like animal found only on several tiny islands off the coast of New Zealand. It is not a lizard, but rather the last representative of a group of reptiles that flourished about 200 million years ago.
Ohio's wealth of natural resources includes some 47 species and subspecies of reptiles. As with so many of our wild species, the demands we have placed upon the land have greatly reduced their numbers. All of us must keep in mind that being good stewards of the land requires that we take care of not just some, but all of our natural resources--even the box turtle lumbering across the highway and the harmless garter snake in the backyard.

All for the Good of the World and Nosovice
Vše pro dobro světa a Nošovic , Czech Republic, 2010, 82 min, 35 mm, Creative, Personal view, Social issues
An original portrait of a Czech village that houses a giant car plant built by South Korea's Hyundai. Before the village turned into an industrial zone, many of the landowners had no intention of selling their plots of land... Not until many of them faced pressure from their neighbours who had accepted approx. EUR 4000 in compensation and not until they received death threats. Using nine protagonists, the film paints a portrait of a village changed beyond recognition. A humorous yet compelling film about a field that yields cars.
All That Glitters
Mlčeti zlato , Czech Republic, 2010, 90 min, HD, Ecology, Personal view, Politics, Social issues
Situated at the crossroads of global interests, Kyrgyzstan reflects the political rivalry between Russian and American influence, reveals the religious rivalry between Christianity and Islam, and lies between the economic predominance of China and Russia. All That Glitters examines how strange capitalism and democracy can be when introduced to a former Soviet country, where people who were never given autonomy are suddenly expected to make their own financial and political decisions.
At the Edge of Russia
Koniec Rosji , Poland, 2010, 72 min, Digi Beta, Society
Alexei is a nineteen year old recruit being flown in to perform his military service on the frontier of northern Russia. The base is one of few such remaining outposts on the Arctic Ocean. There are five other seasoned and long serving soldiers stationed here, each with their own personal story or secret that has caused them to retreat from the real world. Their training and breaking in of the new arrival is sometimes humorous, at times harsh. Gradually, they each reveal something of themselves in their daily interactions and private moments as they continue their absurd duty in this snow covered no man's land, hundreds of miles from the nearest human settlement.
Blue Sky. Dark Bread
Sinee nebo. Cherniy hleb , Russia, 2010, 21 min, 35 mm, Creative, Personal view, Youth Documentary
It is summer, the harvest season. A festival of dust and light. The village is effervescent. Life flows by, peaceful and joyous. The image plays with time, the sound plays with space. A poetic gathering at an up-tempo rhythm, lively, swirling shots framing human beings and nature.
Barlang , Hungary, 2010, 82 min, Beta, Creative, Personal view, Social issues
"If the eye that adventures the vision be dimmed by vice, impure, or weak, and unable in its cowardly blenching to see the uttermost brightness, then it sees nothing even though another point to what lies plain to sight before it. To any vision must be brought an eye adapted to what is to be seen, and having some likeness to it. Never did eye see the sun unless it had first become sunlike, and never can the soul have vision of the First Beauty unless itself be beautiful."Plotinus: On Beauty 1.6.9.
Cinematerapie , Czech Republic, 2010, 108 min, 35 mm, Portrait, Society
Living in the age of reality TV, in a society hungry for sensation, it is easy to feed on the highly emotional stories of people whose futures are being shaped by dozens of professionals. "Cinematherapy" takes a slightly different approach. A commercial aired on Czech Television invited viewers to attend a casting and tell their stories. Later on, eleven of them underwent cinematherapy – provided by the camera as an intermediary between them and the outside world. Blurring the lines between feature film, documentary and reality show, the film does not offer the participants a plastic surgery or a reunion with a long lost friend but lets them witness their often bizarre lives and thus move forward in dealing with their issues.
Cinema Komunisto
Cinema Komunisto , Serbia, 2010, 100 min, HD, Arts and Culture, Creative, History, Politics, Society
When reality has a different script from the one in your films, who wouldn't invent a country to fool themselves? Using rare footage from dozens of forgotten Yugoslav films, as well as never-seen-before archive from film sets and Tito's private screenings, the documentary recreates the narrative of a country, the stories told on screen and the ones hidden behind it. Stars such as Richard Burton, Sofia Loren and Orson Welles add a touch of glamour to the national effort, appearing in super-productions financed by the state. Tito's favorite film director, his projectionist who showed him films every night for 30 years, the most famous actor of partisan films, and the director of the film studios who was a secret policeman – all tell how the history of Yugoslavia was constructed on the screen.
Concrete Pharaohs
Betonni faraoni , Bulgaria, 2010, 47 min, Beta SP, Anthropology, Culture, Society
Welcome to the picturesque world of the Kalderash Roma – a closed community of no more than 1 million people all over the world. "Concrete Pharaohs" take us on a journey into the lifestyle and traditions of the most hidden and intriguing Roma communities. A charismatic Gypsy baron will walk us through his stories and his new house. We will learn the hot trends in Roma tombstone design. We will go down into the underground homes of African granite, furnished with beds, wardrobes, stereos and a charged cell phone – a direct line to the other world. A celebration of life and afterlife in all of their manifestations.
Paradise Hotel
Hotel Rai , Bulgaria, 2010, 54 min, Beta SP, Human Rights, Social issues, Society
The young Demir dreams of a wedding. But his Roma tower block at the outskirts of a provincial town in Bulgaria is no place for romance. 25 years ago it had all it takes for panel socialist heaven: from parquet floors to intercom, the coveted hot water central, street lamps, benches under murmuring apple trees. Someone called the place Paradise Hotel – and the name stuck. But now? The parquet disappeared. The water stopped. The lights went off. And if you cross the field behind Paradise Hotel, you will see Bozhidar "The God Given" who protects everyone from evil and excessive happiness in a documentary about panel integration, love, misery, a lot of dreams, a little lyrics and one Gypsy wedding.
Czech Peace
Český mír , Czech Republic, 2010, 52 min, 35 mm, HD, Creative, Politics, Society
The story of the Star Wars, the Cold War and the War On Terror of one small Czech village. As part of its National Missile Defense Program, the US plan to build a military base in the Czech Republic, a former hiding place for Soviet nuclear rockets during the Cold War. Despite the fact that 73% of Czechs are against the project, the government has continued with negotiations. Supporters of the base claim that it will strengthen the country's defense against the global threats of the 21st century. Opponents point out that the plan essentially shifts the Iron Curtain toward the east; they also insist that it represents an attempt of the US to rule the world.
Eye over Prague
Oko nad Prahou , Czech Republic, 2010, 78 min, DV, Art and Culture, Portrait
An extraordinary tale of Jan Kaplicky, one of the most consummate visionaries of modern architecture. Shot over 3 years in the UK, Czech Republic and Italy, the film portrays Kaplicky at the height of his profession and the petty political gamesmanship that denied him his crowning achievement. His most audacious building would have been the Czech National Library, a triumphant return to his home country and vindication of his uncompromising philosophy. The organic design was too forward-looking for the political powers in Prague, however, and the architect tragically died uncertain whether his achievement would ever be realized.
Family Instinct
Ģimenes lietas , Latvia, 2010, 58 min, HD, Drama doc, Portrait, Social issues
"Family Instinct" is a film about incest - an illegal act, social taboo and a violation of religious norms. Zanda is a 28-year-old woman, worn out by hard work. Surrounded by poverty and despair, she is trying to survive with her two children in a god-forsaken Latvian village. Her hardships can be traced back to living in a relationship with her brother Valdis. When Valdis is put in jail, the local community forces her to make a difficult choice: to stay with him or with her children. Despite her ill fortune, she manages to express her love for the children, still hoping to save her family. The film offers a tragicomic but highly authentic insight into the bleak reality of Latvian countryside today.
Heaven Hell
Nebe peklo , Czech Republic, 2010, 84 min, Digi Beta, HD, Personal view, Portrait, Society
"Heaven Hell" is a full-length documentary film project dealing with human diversity that doesn't necessarily lead to hell even though it might seem like that from the outsider's point of view. It is an attempt to defend even very extreme notions of freedom if such notions are well-founded and lead to new horizons of human understanding. The film portrays people who have found pleasure in pain and decided not to hide this passion, or at least not to suppress and deny it any more. These people either inflict pain or demand it from others, but they do not force anyone to do anything. This closed society is often labelled by its members as BDSM.
In the Bazaar of Sexes
Im Bazar der Geschlechter , Austria, 2009, 85 min, Digi Beta, Gender, Human Rights, Society
A lonesome middle-aged bachelor, a divorced single mother, and a jovial young mullah are the protagonists of this intimate account of gender relations in Iran. Their stories revolve around the institution of temporary marriage, also called lust-marriage, a Shia practice that allows a man and a woman to legally marry for a fixed period of time ranging from one hour to 99 years. Religiously sanctified prostitution or a loophole for couples to have a relationship within the rigid Islamic laws? Religious dogma meets macho, sentimentality meets female realities. A relentlessly honest, eye-opening, and sometimes funny account of Islamic sexual and gender politics.
Lobotoomia , Belarus, Estonia, Germany, Poland, 2010, 57 min, Digi Beta, Creative, Current affairs, Politics, Social issues
Lobotomy is Yuri Khashchavatski's personal indictment of the Russian media's brainwashing tactics. Taking the recent war between Russia and Georgia as a point of departure, he illustrates how far removed actual events were from the conflict as it was reported on Russian state television. The director's own voice drives the argument, but journalists, military experts and politicians also have their say. The film intersperses interviews (live or via Skype) with archive footage that is, in turn, contrasted with amateur clips found on the Internet. Khashchavatski contends that "Montage is a powerful and insidious weapon." And he would be the one to know, because in addition to directing the film, he also edited it and its highly effective audio mix. He is a master of the art of irony as well. This personal account by the director suggests that the Russian state is not being governed according to democratic principles, but by a Mafia-style hierarchy.
Matchmaking Mayor
Nesvatbov , Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, 2010, 72 min, Digi Beta, HD, Creative, Society
A situational documentary film about a village mayor trying to match local people in their thirties who are still single. Slowly but surely, the Slovak village Zemplínské Hámre is dying out. Its mayor, a retired general, doesn't want to give up though. Fighting the thirty-year-olds' loneliness, he has used various means such as offering a financial reward for each newborn child or encouraging people to make children in the local public address system. None of it has worked. However, the mayor has a new plan. He decides to organize a dating party for singles from all the neighbouring villages...
Out of Round: What Is Behind?
Z kola von - Čo je za tým? , Slovak Republic, 2010, 30 min, DVD, HD, Portrait, Social issues
After the festival success of his films "Here We Are" and "The Border", documentary filmmaker Jaro Vojtek returns with the short social documentary "Out of Round". The main protagonist is a Roma man called Jožo/Fero whose addiction has taken everything from him and pushed him and his family onto the edge of society. Marked by difficult fate, he is still an eternal child whose best friend is Nemo the dog. Despite his primary backwardness he feels mentally superior to other members of his family and is the only one who makes an effort to return to normal life.
Pit No. 8
Auk Nr 8 , Estonia, Ukraine, 2010, 95 min, HD, Creative, Personal view, Social issues
In the heart of a once thriving Ukrainian coal-mining region everybody digs – retirees, unemployed miners and even the children. Years ago, the town's desperate residents decided to start mining illegally; they excavate everywhere!!! The story focuses on the Sikanov family, which has three children. 15-year-old Yura, the grandson of a powerful Soviet plant director, is the head of the family working as a miner in the illegal pit. Most Jura wants to run his own cafe somewhere far from home, but the responsibility for the two sisters and looming economic crisis pushes his dreams in the distant future.
Planet Kirsan
Planeta Kirsan , Poland, 2010, 52 min, Digi Beta, Creative, Culture, Society
Over the hills and far away, in the middle of the Russian steppe, you will find Chess City. It was built by Kirsan Ilyumzhinov, the first and only President of the Republic of Kalmykia, one of the smallest and poorest republics in the Russian Federation.In Kalmykia, there also lives a boy called Alekhan, who dreams of becoming the World Chess Champion. And his younger brother Amir, who shares the same dream.The road to make their dreams come true passes through the Chess Competition in Chess City.
Căutare , Romania, 2010, 30 min, Digi Beta, Creative, Portrait
Two characters, a carriage and a horse. Where are they going? Towards what? Joy, torment and undefinable music. Vulnerable, yet not ready to surrender. They are the poets of time.
Souvenirs: Healing After War
Suvenýry , Latvia, USA, 2010, 90 min, DV, Drama doc, Portrait, Social issues
Lyrical, intimate, and sometimes humorous, "Souvenirs" is a eulogy in film of a Veteran whose Post Traumatic Stress Disorder case is actively under review by the Veterans' Affairs office 8 years after his suicide. Ivars 'Andy' Pelecis was a man who wanted to move on. Andy survived the Vietnam War physically, but lived without recognition of his war related mental illness until the day he took his own life in 2002. After 30 years of struggling to 'survive the peace' through alcohol, and ten stays in the locked ward at hospital, Andy's case was reopened by his social workers. Mara Pelecis, Andy's daughter, seeks to reveal her dad's real story that was hidden from her as a child. She continues to ask the question of 'Why he was the way he was?'
Manual on how to Create a Terrorist
Manuál na výrobu teroristy , Czech Republic, 2010, 90 min, DV, DVD, Politics, Social issues, Youth Documentary
In the Basque region of Navarra, the director - a stranger - stops the passers by at the political graffiti, letting them explain what they mean and why they were painted. A documentary feature about repression, the anti-terrorist act and the events that happen within our common borders.
War Games and the Man Who Stopped Them
Gry wojenne , Poland, Slovak Republic, 2009, 110 min, 35 mm, History, Politics, Portrait
"War Games" is a story about a man whom historians consider as the most important spy of the cold war era. The main character of Dariusz Jabloński's documentary is Ryszard Kukliński (pseudonym: Jack Strong), a colonel in headquarters of the Polish Army (Ludowe Wojsko Polskie) in the '70s. Between 1972 and 1981 he handed over to the West over 40 thousand pages of the top secret Warsaw Pact documents. Some people claim that if it wasn't for those documents, maybe all Europe would be licking their wounds after the worldwide nuclear cataclysm. Americans see him as a hero, Russians – as a traitor, Poles are divided...
Village Without Women
Selo bez žena , Croatia, France, 2010, 83 min, Digi Beta, HD, Creative, Social Issues, Society
In Southwest Serbia, atop a mountain and four kilometres from the nearest road, the Jankovic brothers hold down the fort in the womanless village of Zabrdje. Dragan, Zoran, and Rodoljub, along with their neighbour, Velimir, represent the entire population of what was once a vibrant rural community. They live in tough conditions. No running water, no roads, not even a hint of a woman's touch. Not to mention, the three brothers still share the same bedroom. Zoran, the eldest brother, dreams of marrying a woman capable of handling life in Zabrdje. Can he fulfil his dream and renew hope in his village?
V I N Y L (tales from the vienna underground)
Austria, United Kingdom, 2010, 94 min, HD, Art and Culture, Experimental, Music
V I N Y L (tales from the Vienna underground) is the first feature-length documentary to reveal the interconnected world of experimental, trash & electronic musicians in Vienna, and how the artists in this historically unique space interpret which sounds make music in very different ways. V I N Y L is also partly a love letter to a cultural icon – vinyl records - which have been a part of so many people's lives for decades, and which persist in the future of music creation & distribution, despite the pervasiveness of digital technology. In this film, vinyl is a metaphor for something we love, even for its imperfections and scratches, and so it is with these musicians' love-hate relationship to their city. Some things must change, but some things will be important forever.
The World According to Ion B.
Lumea vazuta de Ion B. , Romania, 2009, 60 min, HD, Art and Culture, Portrait
Ion B. is a 62 year-old homeless man. His bed is a filthy foam mattress at the bottom of a garbage chute. Ion sorts through the daily household garbage of the block, avidly reading the books, magazines and newspapers he finds. Since the 70s he has been creating collages from them that he calls "my films".
Working Class Ballet
Darbalaužu balets , Latvia, 2009, 49 min, Beta SP, Adventure and Sport, Culture, Society
The European championship football madness, drunken "experts" at the provincial stadium, the backstage of National team, raving fans at the streets of Paris and Lisbon. Football is a sport and entertainment through possibly there is more to the game. In the film "Working Class Ballet" philosophers, linguists, neuropsychologist and football coach are contemplating on the parallels between football and drama of life, forming an unusual tale on what football is or could be.

King Mathias

Zachraňte Edwardse , Czech Republic, 2010, 80 min, Beta SP, Health, Society
For the purposes of this film, Edwards is a child; a long-awaited child of a loving couple, a child struck with a terrible and fatal mistake at conception. Edwards had an extra chromosome, one more than the exact number required for the development of a healthy baby. This flaw causes severe developmental disorders that cannot support life. The condition was first described by American medical scientist John Alexander Edwards, hence the name Edwards Syndrome. Considering modern prenatal diagnostics, it is very uncommon for such children to be born. In the majority of cases, the pregnancy is terminated. The parents of this child decided otherwise. The film follows the struggle of the parents to save a child who was buried by many long before being born.

His body isn't even cold yet and the New York times has already put out a shameful article declaring Nelson Mandela to be an "icon of peaceful resistance". News outlets around the Western world are hurrying to publish obituaries that celebrate his electoral victory while erasing the protracted and fierce guerrilla struggle that he and his party fought against the white supremacist South African state in order to make that victory possible. Don't let racist, imperialist liberalism co-opt the legacy of another radical. Nelson Mandela used peaceful means when he could, and violent means when he couldn't. For this, during his life they called him a terrorist, and after his death they'll call him a pacifist — all to neutralize the revolutionary potential of his legacy, and the lessons to be drawn from it.

LinkedIn cofounder and chairman Hoffman and entrepreneur Casnocha (My Start-Up Life) show how to adapt to the challenges of professional life and achieve career goals by behaving like an entrepreneur in this innovative approach to career management. Recognizing the similarities between business strategies employed by successful startups and career strategies used by top individuals, Hoffman began to ponder individuals as startup ventures and realized the importance of utilizing an entrepreneurial mindset to forge new careers. Given the new economic landscape, where young talent is stuck at the bottom of the employment ladder, retirement-age employees are staying on the job, and stalemated middle-aged workers are stalled in limbo, workers at all levels need to develop strategies to gain opportunities, improve their competitive edge, and expand their networks—in other words, obtain a startup mindset and skills. To do so, the authors show how to combine assets, aspirations, and market realities and adapt as needed, emphasizing the necessity of building real, lasting relationships and establishing a powerful professional network. With plenty of valuable guidance relevant to any career stage, this book will help readers not only survive professionally in times of uncertainty but stand out from the pack and flourish.

The NSCC has begun its search for individuals who have improved the payment process in the construction sector. The subcontractors' trade body has invited construction firms to help it identify 'Fair Payment Champions' who have improved cash flow in the industry. Launched in 2007, the Fair Payment campaign has helped improve payment processes in construction and is now looking to reward those behind the positive changes. Suzannah Nichol, NSCC's chief executive, said: "This is an excellent opportunity to recognise and reward those individuals that have helped to highlight the importance of fair payment within the supply chain. "Changing custom and practice is never easy and the achievements of the Fair Payment Campaign to date are down to the efforts of 'champions' who have proved that by working together we can make a difference." The Fair Payment Champions are set to be announced in September and will attend the 2012 NSCC Annual Lunch on 21st November.

Another legacy of Roe: The head-counting of justices on the court, a what-if scenario that could lead to the overturning of Roe. The current 5-4 conservative majority might shift in either direction if two or more justices leave the bench in the next few years, as is widely expected.
In the meantime, conservatives in Congress have promised to push for tougher restrictions on access to abortion, though many political experts say the goal is not necessarily aimed at overturning Roe.
They found success five years ago when the justices, in a 5-4 ruling, upheld a federal ban on a controversial late-term procedure, rejecting concerns the law didn't take into account the physical safety of the woman.
The procedure -- called "partial birth abortion" by its critics -- is typically performed in the middle-to-late second trimester. The legal sticking point was that the law lacked a "health exception" for women who might suffer serious medical complications, something the justices have said in the past is necessary when considering abortion restrictions.
The swing vote, as in previous cases, came from Kennedy. In angry dissent, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, then the lone woman on the high court, called the majority's conclusions "alarming" and said they "cannot be understood as anything other than an effort to chip away a right declared again and again by this court, and with increasing comprehension of its centrality to women's lives."
Ginsburg has long been a leading voice for gender equality. Ironically, some of the opposition to her 1993 nomination to the high court came from feminists, who did not like her criticism over the legal reasoning of Roe.
She believed a more gradual liberalization to abortion would have kept the issue back in the states, avoiding the social and political upheaval that has been part of Roe's legacy. The law on abortion was evolving at the time of Roe, Ginsburg recalled in 2005. "The Supreme Court stopped all that by deeming every law -- even the most liberal -- as unconstitutional. That seemed to me not the way courts generally work."
But Ginsburg, in her rulings, has upheld a woman's reproductive choice. "When government controls that decision for her, she's being treated as less than a full adult human being responsible for her own choices," she said during her confirmation.
If there is one overriding legacy of the Roe decision, it may be that it opened and expanded the debate on the rights of women, sexuality, health care, and medical decisions. Issues like cloning, stem cells, and fetal research have become part of the national lexicon. As significant as it was, Roe v. Wade was only the beginning of the battle.

I think a lot of people are now reviewing their personal and corporate email policies, especially people who use cloud-based email on work computers. The mainstream, non-tech press, has spent some time trying to explain this, too; I saw a segment on the CBS Morning News yesterday that did a decent job of it, although they didn't get into too much depth. The best comparison their expert used was that email is like a postcard. I'd say it's like a telegram, a telegram that never disappears and is searchable.
Please don't take this wrong not meaning to be political but realistic
No matter what you put to [e-mail] you must remember you must write that not only people reading with good intentions can understand you must also write so that people reading with bad intentions cannot misunderstand.
That which is not secure and can be read by anyone. That which is to be considered to be totally secure is probably not and refer to part one.
I think it is quite apparent about the security issue and transferring data is always a bad thing.
Anytime you oppose, cross or otherwise dispute or intimidate people in power you will find that someone can find whatever they wish about you.
I see the cloud with some apprehension in the same manner, but guess I am just old fashion.
>>then as long as your door is locked you're probably okay<<
That probability should be carefully looked at. And shouldnt cloud users begin to worry about numbers of duplicate keys in different hands when the assumption of getting your door locked and contents secured?
I had no idea the age of a communication was relevant to whether a warrant is needed to obtain it. Strange.
Despite earlier reports, it was not Gmail headers. Rather, it was Petreaus' mail client, reported Digital Trends. According to my understanding of the case and the law, the FBI must have got a warrant. They need one to access emails that are 180 or fewer days old. To gain access to older emails, however, they don't need to show probably cause... something to ponder before clicking send. Here's the User's Guide to the Stored Communications Act.
The thinking is that by having an affair, Petreaus left himself open to blackmail. If he was having the affair while in the Armed Forces, he broke a military law, which is one reason it's been reported he said the affair began after he left the service. It also could be argued it distracted him from his duties, and it puts his moral character into question. As head of the CIA, the fact that he was doing something illicit is dangerous to the nation because, if discovered by an enemy country, that nation could have held it over Petreaus' head, arguable. (I disagree, really: He fessed up immediately, it appears, rather than argue over it or disavow it, only to have the truth come out after a protracted PR nightmare. But you can't know how an individual will react.)
I'm uncertain whether this "Gmail metadata" was in fact Gmail-specific, or whether it was simply ordinary email headers.
NBC Nightly News reported Monday night that the FBI investigated started (as this blog notes) with an investigation into threatening emails sent to Jill Kelley. Investigators became alarmed when the person sending the threats appeared to have intimate knowledge of Gen. Petreaus's locations. Investigators accessed the account sending the threats and discovered sexually explicit email that was evidence of the affair.
Do we know how the investigators accessed the account? Was it definitely through a warrant served on the ISP? Was the ISP in this case Google?
@Alison Diana: Okay help me with the thought on the security scenario. lets say some one wanted Patreous or Mrs. Broadwell that bad, how would they have orchestrated either of their downfalls had Mrs. Broadwell acted the way she did?
Great points, @abdiah. The FBI was obviously given a big clue and a trail to follow; this wasn't an accidental uncovering after a sweep of Gmail. I guess it's like any security scenario. If someone wants you, they most likely will succeed. But if they're jiggling on door handles, then as long as your door is locked you're probably okay. At least for now.
Yes, email lasts forever but in cases where secondary issues do not compromise them, they may be secret forever as well.
I think another angle to this is that we must note that in life we cannot control everything, no matter how careful we think we are. This is a case of quite secure communication plan being accidentally compromised.


text: The thing is that HMX I'm sure selected these songs a long long time ago. The bands they are licensing now we wont see til at least the summer and the ones that are showing up for DLC were probably planned long before the game came out. I don't see what everyone is whining about. If you dont like it don't buy it. It's not for everyone but some of us will enjoy it. Keep up the good work guys!

Mt. Cheonggye
By Shim Hyun-chul Mountain trails, well-shaded with leafy trees and the refreshing sound of running water, relieve urban people's cares and worries. Mt. Cheonggye is one of the most easily accessible mountains around Seoul for climbing, and extends over the southern border of the capital into Gwacheon, Euiwang and Seongnam in Gyeonggi Province. The mountain features temples and parks as well as a beautiful green forest and wooded valleys. The name of the mountain comes from clear water from the valley as the Korean word "cheong" means clean and "gye" means valley. As the name indicates, there are some beautiful valleys on Mt. Cheonggye, including Wonteogol, Yakchosaemgol and Eodungol. The 618-meter-high mountain also features the Manggyeongdae and Maebong summits as it surrounds the south of Seoul. At observation spots throughout the mountain, climbers can enjoy breathtaking views of the capital and Seoul Zoo in Gwacheon. There are several routes to climb the mountain and it takes about two to two-and-a-half hours to get to the top whichever one is chosen. |
