- " Society hostel is quite good. The bathroom wall and staircase is not clean. No mirror even in the bathroom. they should put a mirror enought for the body especially at the female room and not so small.The front must be clean (glass doors )so that once your client arrives they have already the empression that the hostel is clean.I was disappointed when a staff told me "this is not a call center" when my guest asked to used the landline phone to ring me up. Polite words must be used to clients. "

- " The staff is very friendly and helpful. The mix dorm of 20 people looks like a prison and its bathroom is very dirty. The female dorm is a little bit better (bathroom is cleaner, but still not enough). Little India is a nice neighborood. "

Skin City Boyfriend Shirt - Originally $122.00 (# TSW74015C)
Wild style, say aloha to island luxury. We gave a traditional boyfriend shirt an exotic twist by adorning it with a chic, leopard skin print. Crafted from lightweight polyester, it goes on beautifully over your swimsuit after a dip in the pool, but looks just as elegant at a cocktail soiree on the back patio. For added versatility, the sleeves roll up and secure with button tabs.
- Originally $122.00 - Now $84.97
- Hand wash cold; lay flat to dry
- 32.25" shoulder to hem
- 100% polyester
- Imported

Loved this shirt
I am based in the UK and an English size 16/ 5 feet 5 inches around 11 st 5 pounds
Fitted perfectly and arrived in England really fast.

the material is too rigid
It feels too tight at shoulders. The fabric does not give and for me it's uncomfortable.
I did not return it, but not sure if I'll ever wear it. Too bad, I love the color and print.

Versatility and carefree style has been woven into this piece. I love it!
A wonderful addition to any wardrobe. I recently took this peice on vacation and used it as a bathing suit coverup. A cardigan over a black cami and wide leg pants for dinner. In addition I wore it buttoned and belted over capri leggings for daytime shopping! Fabulous!

A four-vehicle accident at U.S. Highway 98 and Orion Parker Boulevard sent one victim to the hospital at 12:30 p.m. July 16 when the driver of a Cadillac Escalade made a left turn into oncoming traffic.
Drivers of several of the vehicles involved in the crash stated that the driver of the Cadillac, who was headed southbound on Orion Parker Boulevard made an left turn into the eastbound lane of U.S. 98 while the light was green for U.S. 98 traffic.
The Cadillac, driven by Charlotte Moody, 32, of Navarre, hit a white working van which was in the passing lane, headed westbound on U.S. 98. The van then hit a white Oldsmobile, which then struck a red Nissan, causing all four vehicles to sustain damage, according to Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Rittenhouse.
Moody was taken to Fort Walton Beach Medical Center for minor injuries. FHP reported that Moody was charged with the violation of a traffic control device.

I wanted to be able to see clear without having to wear glasses or contact lenses, plus it makes me look good! I highly recommend Global Laser Vision for the reason that in the profession I am in, we have things coming at us all time like 300 pound men trying to hurt you and you have to be able to see that coming at you in a split second. You know you have to be prepared for every situation and this is the right thing to do. Having LASIK surgery at Global Laser Vision was the best decision I've ever made!"

"To advance human progress through an economic, political and social system based on individual freedom, incentive, initiative, opportunity, and responsibility."The ratings are based on the votes the organization considered most important; the numbers reflect the percentage of time the representative voted the organization's preferred position.
Congressional Summary:
Supporter's Comments: (by CUNA, a pro-credit union organization)
America's small businesses are the engine of growth of our nation's economy. The effects of the financial crisis of the past few years have spread to all types of lending, resulting in a reduction in the availability
of business credit. At a time when banks are withdrawing credit from America's small businesses, credit unions have actually been expanding credit to small businesses, but with more credit unions approaching the cap, this growth is threatened. Congress should enact legislation which increases the credit union member business lending cap from 12.25% of assets to 27.5% for well-capitalized credit unions
Opponent's Comments: (by the Independent Community Banks of America, Nov. 15, 2012)
The tax-subsidized credit union industry is pressing for doubling the statutory cap Congress placed on member business loans. Shifting assets from tax-paying banks to tax-exempt credit unions would reduce tax revenue to the government; the CBO estimates the revenue impact at $354 million over 10 years. We believe that banks are currently meeting the needs of credit-worthy businesses, as substantiated by numerous business surveys.
The United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) is North America's Neighborhood Union--1.3 million members with UFCW locals in all 50 states, Puerto Rico and Canada. Our members work in supermarkets, drug stores, retail stores, meatpacking and meat processing plants, food processing plants, and manufacturing workers who make everything from fertilizer to shoes.

The island was originally the same color as the rest of the kitchen cabinets.
Next, we used liquid nails to add beadboard to the sides that didn't have drawers.
Now, here is where we had to get super creative with this project!
Now, if you look super duper close, you can see the seam.
However, I will tell you,
all of our friends and family thought is was butcher block,
until we {of course} told them otherwise!
We could NOT be happier with the way this project came out.
It is perfect for our little family of four.
Many nights we pull up bar stools and eat around our island!
It has been perfect for cooking and baking as well!
Here's a last little side view for you!
Thanks so much for sticking with me through this rather long post!
I will be sharing with these talented ladies this week!
Hope you have a great evening!

Travis Swenson first connected with Deloitte at an on-campus recruiting event at the University of San Diego. "Starting out, I knew I wanted to work with one of the 'Big 4' firms," he said. "I also knew I wanted to be in financial services. A smaller market couldn't offer that."
Deloitte presented him with just that opportunity by offering him a position in the New York office, kicking off what would become a fourteen-year career with Deloitte. Travis now serves as Senior Managing Director and U.S. Leader of the Real Estate Accounting Services at CBRE, the world's largest commercial real estate services firm. We caught up with him recently to discuss his current role and to reflect on his Deloitte years, mentors and experiences.
Describe your current role at CBRE.
I am the Senior Managing Director and U.S. Leader of Real Estate Accounting Services, which provides property and fund accounting services for more than 700 clients. I oversee the accounting hub in Minneapolis and the satellite offices in Atlanta, Hawaii, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Phoenix. In all, I have about 750 people report to me, and we are responsible for over 570 million square feet of real estate.
What drew you to Deloitte right out of college?
When I travelled to interview at the New York office, I was struck by the people, the culture and the size and scale of it all. It was an exciting opportunity for me. So, I started with Deloitte Tax LLP and spent three years in New York before transferring to Los Angeles, which allowed me to return to the West Coast to serve different types of clients.
What attracted you to the Capital Markets Advisory practice of Deloitte & Touche LLP?
I was working closely with an Audit Partner who introduced me to a principal in the Capital Markets Advisory practice. I was intrigued by the work, so I switched to that practice. I liked the variety of clients, issues and projects. Everything was different and it was not routine by any means. It gave me the opportunity to travel nationally and globally.
What advice would you give someone just starting out at Deloitte?
The path Deloitte sets out for you, might work out just fine. However, there will likely be times when you have to raise your hand and have frank conversations about your career. Maybe you want to explore something new and different? While those plans might not always align with the interests of your partners or directors, I think the leaders at Deloitte are very open to feedback and will help guide your career where you want it to go. Do what your role demands of you, but ensure you are also gaining experience you need for what you want to do five or ten years from now.
When did your current career goals start to take shape?
When I went back to school for my MBA, in my heart, I knew I wanted to run a business and to own a P&L. I worked to identify my skill gaps, and then looked for projects to enhance those skill gaps, allowing me to be more valuable and marketable.
Did you have any mentors at Deloitte?
I had many great mentors. It is important to seek out those people you want as mentors and to have maybe five or so at any given time. That way, you can draw on different points of view. Even if you get thirty minutes of time with a particular leader once a year, it can be incredibly impactful.
What led you to CBRE and were the partners at Deloitte supportive of your move?
Interestingly, I had recently gone through a long interview process to be a divisional CFO at a bank in Minneapolis. I came in second place, which was a disappointment. A month later, I received a call about the opportunity at CBRE, which was a much more significant position. While contemplating it, I spoke with a Deloitte director with whom I had worked closely. His response was not, "I can't believe you're thinking about to leaving us." Rather, it was "That's awesome. Put time on my calendar to discuss how I can help you be successful in your new role." That says a lot about Deloitte and about this director. He cared more about my career, than about what he might be losing in the short term.
How does it feel to be on the client side?
We have a number of consulting projects at CBRE. It is great to pick up the phone and navigate my way to the experts in any given field and to continue to leverage those Deloitte relationships.

If this sweet animal really is already taken with him as much as they're saying she is, imagine how much more she's going to love him at the end of the shoot? When animals get attached to us, we become part of their pack.
And if so, he's gonna have to ween himself out of her presence (although being an elephant, she's not going to forget him). But if he just walks away from her and never sees her again, she's going to feel abdandoned by him. And she'll suffer for it.
And we get atttached too and I'm guessing come the end of this shoot, he's gonna miss her too.
Who knows? Instead of another dog, they may end up with an elephant. Do cats and elephants get along?
Well. If Clooney can have a 300 lb. pot belly pig, why can't Pattinson have an elephant? - June 24, 2010 at 1:19 AM

Uh...yeah. About that little "love nest" of theirs? Something you might want to consider...
Was over visiting a friend this past weekend and she subscribes to all of these rags (which I rag on her about and she rolls her eyes at me which is why we've been friends since we were 8 years old. we give each other shit and then...were good). But I was leafing through one of them (what the hell. I didn't pay for it and I can't stop her from doing it) and there it was...the famous, idylic "love nest."
Just one hitch in the giddy up though. Where is the housing for security?
If his security is at such a level that Dean's presence is required on that set with him (the safest place in the world for him btw as they have their own stringent security) and apparently it is, as he's there, isn't he? Then it would violate even the most basic of protection codes to allow him to go home alone (or to her; a 95 lb. girl with a cat to protect them) to an isolated house by a body of water (that's access). No. Not how it works.
Anybody ever see The Bodyguard? Well, there was a lot of truth to that scenario. Not the dramatic narrative of the story, but rather, the way these security details set up shop.
Wherever Rob is living at the moment, you can bet that someone from his security detail (the relief man so that Dean can get a break) is nearby. VERY nearby (I mean, what's the point of having this scale of security if they can't get to you within a minute or so should something go...wrong). And in the shot of that house, there isn't another one anywhere in the vacinity. I know. It said it was a guesthouse on part of an estate. That's fine. But there would have to be additional housing no less than a minute away. And there's none.
And no, security would not be living in a one bedroom abode with him and perhaps a...roomate. With a cat.
Not in Rob's living space, but VERY nearby. And in that arial shot, I only saw one small isolated house and NOTHING nearby. And with it being a one bedroom, I assure you that his security is not sharing that bedroom with them, nor are they downstairs on the sofa. They've got their own housing...VERY near by.
He's not living in that little house. For one thing, with that arial shot, if he was living there, security (his home security) has been breached and they'd have to move him.
THAT'S how it works. - June 24, 2010 at 7:15 AM
- nikola6 said...
The ONLY reason that a famous person (or any person for that matter) has 24/7 security on them is...their lives have been threatened.
And even when we see papp shots of Rob out and about looking like he's on his own? He's not. Someone is near by. ALWAYS. Dean is what you call the front guy. The visible one. The one that everybody who follows him in photos recognizes (including someone trying to get near enough to him to harm him). But who don't we know? The rest of the detail. The rest who blend into the background. Because if we who follow his every move in the papp photos cannot recognize the rest of his detail...then neither can anyone else who is targeting him.
How do I know this? A very dear friend of mine ran security details for threatened stars several years ago.
Ya wanna be famous do ya?
No. You don't. - June 24, 2010 at 7:30 AM

And don't get freaked out by it. At least once in their careers, most stars have had their lives threatened.

Sigh - it's all cute until Rosie freaks out and crushes Rob!
(start rant)
Elephants are wild animals, and females live long lives among each other in their herds. They are not meant to be in captivity, alone, "trained" to perform (through fear and beatings)on movie sets. Elephants are often driven crazy by the abuse and abnormal lives being transported and kept sedentary - and they often lash out and kill in response.
Do we know Rosie's background? Know how she is treated? Do we trust the word of these "trainers" who use these animals to make money?
It's time to stop exploiting wild animals for the sake of entertainment, including making films with them. Period.
I hope Rob becomes educated about the sad lives of these animals and refuses such jobs in the future.
(end rant) - June 24, 2010 at 11:10 AM
- AP said...
@RB: yes, we do know Tai's background and how she is treated. And why the story does focus on the ill-treatment of animals. Read a bit about Sara Gruen. Sorry you won't be seeing the film....
- June 24, 2010 at 11:34 AM
- BellaMarie247 said...
Things have come a very long way since the 1930's when this book/movie is set in regards to the humane treatment of animals.
It's nonsensical not to see this movie because the world is not a perfect place yet.
I won't go to circuses or zoos, but that's just me. I don't like looking at small aquariums or caged birds.
We have wild bunnies in our yard and I love bird-watching when I'm out there. But I'm not a vegetarian, so that just makes me human, with all my faults. - June 24, 2010 at 12:11 PM

Benton to face Lee in first round today
By TAYLOR MITCHELL
Sports Editor
Today, the Lady Raiders of Benton Academy begin competition for the north half state championship in Cleveland as the second place team from district 4A. However, the path to the championship is not an easy one.
Benton begins play at Delta State's University Field against Lee (Ark.) Academy, the first place team from district 1A. Other first round match ups include five-time state champion and host school Bayou Academy (2A, first place) against Hebron Christian (3A, second place), Tri-County (4A) versus Delta Academy (1A) and Winona Christian School (3A) against Deer Creek School (2A).
"Honestly, I feel good about our chances," Lady Raiders head coach Brent Woods said Thursday afternoon after the bracket was released earlier that morning. "We lost to Tri-County by one run and we should have won that game. Them and Bayou will be tough competition. I think the neutral site will be in our favor though."
Should Benton win its first game of the double-elimination tournament, the Lady Raiders will face either Bayou or Hebron Christian. Bayou has been dominant in recent years against north half competition, but to beat them will require playing the same mistake-free game the Lady Colts play.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

WRHU Radio Hofstra University Marks 50 Years of Broadcasting on June 9, 2009
Celebration to take place in the fall with return of radio alumni and new "Radio Hall of Fame"
Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY – On Tuesday, June 9, 2009, WRHU Radio Hofstra University will officially mark 50 years of broadcasting at Hofstra University."A half century for any endeavor deserves commemoration, but this milestone is especially significant for Hofstra Radio," says Hofstra Radio Alumni Association (HRAA) President Marc Wiener, '70. "Our legacy is the cultural history of the 20th century as broadcast by thousands of student voices. Whether in sound or in person, every one of them will be represented at our November Gala."
The official celebration of the milestone will take place November 6-8, 2009 when members of WHCH (Hofstra College Hempstead) and WVHC (Voice of Hofstra College), two predecessors to the current radio station, as well as WRHU (Radio Hofstra University) alumni will gather. The Hofstra Radio Alumni Association (HRAA) will host a variety of events and activities including a silent auction and alumni brunch. The main event will be a gala on Saturday, November 7, 2009 when the HRAA will induct its first members into a new "Radio Hall of Fame."
Throughout its 50-year history, the non-commercial radio station has received many accolades, including Folio, Hearst, Audie, New York Associated Press Broadcasters and Press Club of Long Island Media Awards. Additionally, WRHU has Long Island's largest radio news team with more than 75 students. For more than 45 years, WRHU has reported live from candidate headquarters each election night and has had reporters at both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions. Most recently, student reporters covered all aspects of the final 2008 presidential debate held at Hofstra on October 15, 2008, including interviews with local politicians and legislators.
In celebration of the 50th anniversary, WRHU, in conjunction with Hofstra's School of Communication, launched a speaker series featuring prominent alumni from WHCH, WVHC, and WRHU including Charlie Kaye, executive producer for news at CBS Radio, Lee Harris, 1010-WINS news anchor and radio legend Dan Ingram.
WRHU also began the "50 project" that will allow alumni to return to the airwaves to broadcast their all-time favorite shows.
For more information about Radio Hofstra University's 50th anniversary, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or call (516) 463-5109.
WRHU, Radio Hofstra University, is Long Island's oldest non-commercial radio station, broadcasting 24 hours a day, seven days a week on 88.7FM and online at www.wrhu.org. Founded in 1950 as a club, WHCH was limited to the Hofstra campus. In 1959, the station received an FCC broadcast license and became WVHC, the Voice of Hofstra College. In 1983 the station expanded its broadcast range and became WRHU. Now, with a staff of more than 175 members, and a program schedule that includes 42 varying formats, the award winning radio station prides itself on pre-professional broadcast training and development. WRHU is an integral part of Hofstra's School of Communication.
Hofstra University is a dynamic private institution where students can choose from about 150 undergraduate and more than 160 graduate programs in liberal arts and sciences, business; engineering; communication; education, health and human services; and honors studies, as well as a School of Law. With a student-faculty ratio of 14-to-1, our professors teach small classes averaging 22 students that emphasize interaction, critical thinking and analysis. Hofstra offers a faculty whose highest priority is teaching excellence. The University also provides excellent facilities with state-of-the-art technology, extensive library resources and internship programs that match students' interests and abilities with appropriate companies and organizations. The Hofstra community is driven, dynamic and energetic, helping students find and focus their strengths to prepare them for a successful future.

Hot Tools Anti-Static Ion Hot Air Brush
Jean PhilipsGood Idea, Too HotThis item arrived broken; the barrel would just fall off when in use. Even if it had stayed on though the barrel got too hot to handle. I can only imagine that it would have fried my hair.posted Oct 23, 2006Link to this post
Anne2nd One Just Burnt OutIve had 2 hot tools airbrushes, and the 2nd just burnt out on me. I love it for styling my hair, but I dont think its worth replacing every 6 months when I only used it about once a week.posted Sep 18, 2006Link to this post
VonniHonolulu, HawaiiHot Tools Air BrushIm a hairdresser and bought this product at a beauty supply store. It worked for about 6 months then it started to quit as if it was over heating. I loved the way it tamed the frizzies, although I never used on my clients. There is no way of sterilizing it. I was about to order another one today until I started reading all the negative reviews. I have changed my mind.posted Jul 24, 2006Link to this post
NancyBurning Motor!This hot air brush only lasted 1 month before all the settings except for low would not work. It started to smell like it was burning and one day the motor did actually start to burn. Good thing it wasnt touching my hair at the time because I feel it could have started my hair on fire.posted Jun 16, 2006Link to this post
FrazzledWALove Gone Wrongonce upon a time --- when I first purchased this item I was in love --- it worked beautifully on my fine hair --- then after I had used it probably no more than 6 times it started smelling like it was burning up. This is really disappointing when you spend a fair amount of money on a specialty item and it is not made well enough to last for a reasonable amount of time. I am NOT living happily ever after!!posted Jun 7, 2006Link to this post
MaryHouston,t XQuick & Easyit takes just a few minutes to dry my hair with this and it styles my hair at the same time. this is the second one i buy. i broke the brush on the old one and the bristles on the brush are just dead by now. but never had any problems with the motor. works great!posted Jun 2, 2006Link to this post
C.r.New York, NYGreat, Until It Burned UpThis brush worked very well -- until the motor burned out. The brush lasted about six months, and was used only once or twice per week. I would save my money.posted May 9, 2006Link to this post
MaribelBell, CaliforniaLasted A MonthThis hot air brush was great!!! It would leave my hair smooth and with lots of volume. Unfortunately, it only lasted one month, I guess the motor burned out. This was very dissapointing.posted May 4, 2006Link to this post
JuliaSeattleGreat Original Product!I purchased my only Hot Tools air brush in 1997, and it still works great! Makes my hair smoothed-out and shiny, gives it body, and I use it daily. Sorry to hear the latter models may have flaws.posted Mar 4, 2006Link to this post
CarlaPaMotor Burned Up Within 2 MonthsThe hot air brush helped keep my hair smoother (must be the ionic feature) but the motor burned up already! I have only had it two months! And I havent straightened my hair every day...if I do straighten it, I dont wash it the next day (sometimes for 3 days) because it still looks clean. The motor sounded cheap from the first time I turned it on...and one day it just popped, the reset/GFI button tripped and turned it off, and it smelled like burned wires! So disappointing after spending so much money! Helen of Troy (the maker) agreed to replace it free but Im still paying for shipping. I would like to get a refund and get another brand but I guess Ill try another one. Hope it was just a fluke but after reading other reviews I dont think so. If it happens again Ill fight for my money back and get another brand! Plus the bristles are too short for my thick, curly hair and I have to manually wind my hair around it. My advice: dont buy this hot air brush but look for better reviews on another brand.posted Jan 17, 2006Link to this post

Nicole Kidman And Fame
In the December issues of Vanity Fair Nicole talks about her marriage to Tom Cruise but only spews out a few half-truths about her marriage which she called amazing and wonderful and romantic and they were crazy in love. OK, so maybe more than a few. She then veers off and compares herself and Tom to Brangelina when it comes to the level of fame she had with Tom.
Tom was a huge movie star when they were married but I think Brangelina is at a higher level of fame. I think there are lots of people in the world who are at a higher level than Nicole and Tom were. Nicole says that amount of fame is intoxicating. I'm sure that combined with the money they had makes her wish every day that Tom had not divorced her.
Nicole then takes her car off the side of the road with this next quote. "Having experienced extreme fame and now getting to a place where it's not so dominating in my life, I'm always surprised when I go somewhere and people know who I am,"
Nicole Kidman would scream and die if you did not recognize her instantly. She would wither away for the rest of the day and shed real tears if she went out in public and no one did a double take or try and speak with her or photograph her.

Individual students and campus groups vying for coveted talent awards, and the presentation of the new campus queen will be the main attractions at the Blue Key Talent Nite tomorrow night. The 25th annual Talent Nite, which will be held at 8:15 p.m. in the fieldhouse, will kick off the Homecoming Week activities. The show will be composed of 17 acts. It will feature top student talent six schools and colleges and the evening division. The program will open with the first public presentation of Loyola's 1962-63 campus queen Cynthia Sliman, a junior in the college of arts and sciences. The new queen will receive her crown from Her Majesty of last year, Brenda Levy, during the Nite festivities. The Campus Court of six maids is comprised of A&S sophomore Vickie Curtis; BA senior Connie Marquer; A&S sophomore Helen Genovese; A&S seniors Carolyn Meyer and Pamela Leak; and Judith Holton of the evening division.• PAGEANT SLATED Featured on the show will be a 25th anniversary pageant. It will include a piano instrumental of "The Man I Love" by Mrs. Thomas J. Munier; John Paquette will sing "Just Say I Love Her;" a guitar instrumental will be given by Dr. Humberto Valladaris; and performing singers will be Rosemary Falgoust and Don Marshall, the latter first place winner in Blue Key individual talent competition last year. Dr. John G. Arnold, Jr., chairman, department of medical technology and former Blue Key moderator, will narrate the pageant. Leo C. Zinser, chairman, department of speech, is coordinator. The show will be divided into three categories: individual acts, groups, and skits, according to Lawrence McNamara, general chairman of the event. • McNAMARA Master of ceremonies for the Talent Nite show will be Larry McNamara, president of Loyola's chapter of Blue Key, national honorary fraternity. Competing for individual honors will be vocalist Ruth Falcon, a music junior who recently appeared at the Roosevelt's Blue Room with famed singer Monique Van Vooren; vocalist Jo Ann Soab, music freshman; pianist Judy Vicknair, A&S sophomore; and instrumentalists John Berthelot, music junior; A 1 Zansler, music senior; and Ross Yockey, A&S sophomore.

ÜBL placed second with their 'Classical Cow- boys," a Shakespearean "Gunsmoke" skit. Also appearing on the Talent Nite program will be the university chorus. Campus Capers will provide musical accompaniment for all acts. Joe D'Avignon, A&S junior, is stage manager and Arthur Knight, music senior, musical director for the jubilee event. Talent Nite Performers... Beauty and talent have always been integral parts of the annual Blue all set to perform to a capacity crowd tomorrow night. They are just Key Talent Nite, and this year is no exception. Pretty Loyola coeds one of the 17 acts that will comprise this the 25th Talent Nite spon- Sheila Molligan, Sheila O'Haire, Mary Cloutier, and Joy Palmisano are sored by Blue Key. FR. ROONEY LU Spirit Gets Boost From Coeds During this basketball season, it won't be just the Men of the South fighting for the old Maroon and Gold—for in the stands newly-organized coed groups, Spiritus and the Wolfettes, led by six LU cheerleaders, will be boosting the Pack on to victory.New names and new faces grace the new morale movement as four freshmen cheerleaders join the old-timers, Nicky Nichols, arts and science senior, and Bennie Rauch, business administration junior, announced Miss Rosalie Parrino, dean of women and moderator of the pep clubs. New cheerleaders are Tek Bassham, arts and science; Gordon Binder, arts and science; Dotty Fitzgerald, arts and science; Michie McHardy, dentistry. A Goal-Rush Stein party will be held immediately before the homecoming: game with Spring Hill in the Loyola cafeteria at 7 p.m. on December 12, to introduce the new cheerleaders and to inaugurate the birth of Spiritus and the Wolfettes.Membership in the new pep clubs is honorary and selective. Members will be chosen on basis of past records, leadership, school spirit and personal qualifications. Miss Parrino outlined the organization of the Spiritus club as operating on two levels: that of an honorary faction to provide enough spirit to boost team morale and that of a board of directors to organize Homecoming decorations, bonfires, motorcades and trips. The Loyola Wolfettes, initiated by Dale Tschirn, arts and science freshman, will perform at varsity basketball games. "The Loyola school-spirit is dead," said Miss Parrino, "but it hasn't been buried. With these two new movements, we hope to inject a new life and fight into the basketball season."

Fifth in the Loyola Film Series, the movies will be shown at 8 p.m. Sunday in Marquette auditorium and is sponsored by the Thirty club. "Aparajito" is the featured film on the series this year and because it has attracted wide audiences wherever it has been seen. The story begins in Benares, where the family has taken quarters in a poor district. Father teaches religion on the banks of the holy Ganges; mother struggles to keep her son from running wild in the streets; ten-year-old Apu, when he isn't running wild in the streets, earns pennies by picking the lice out of rich men's hair. After the father dies, mother and son are very happy together until Apu announces, "I want to go to school." He proves to be an excellent student and eventually earns a scholarship to the university in Calcutta. Apu takes and takes from his mother and gives nothing but pain in return. His visits home become fewer and fewer until finally death cuts the cord. "Aparajito" was produced in 1959. It is the second part of a trilogy by the young director, Satyajit Ray. All three films come from a novel called "Pather Panchali" by Bibhuti Bandopadyaya. Winner of the Grand Prize at the Venice Film Festival, "Aparajito" has Hindu dialogue with English subtitles. Says Bosley Crowther of the New York Times: "A film of rare distinction . . . pictorially lovely in every way . . . done with such rare feeling and with such sympathetic understanding of Indian character that it develops a sort of hypnotism." A short, "Olympia Diving Sequence," will also be shown. The film was shot at the 11th Olympic Games, Berlin, 1936. Divers are seen against a black sky, soaring freely in space. Tickets for $1.00 may be purchased at the door. Fr. Rooney To Speak On Dec. 13 Rev. Edward B.

Y., Father Rooney received his Ph.D. from The Gregorian university in Rome and holds honorary degrees from Marquette university, Fairfield university, Mount Saint Mary's college, Xavier university in Cincinnati and Loyola university in Chicago.

text: During the late '60s and early '70s, Swiss filmmaker Alain Tanner was the key figure in the development and popularization of the "new Swiss cinema." He remains one of his country's best-known directors. Born in Geneva to a writer/painter and an actress, Tanner attended Geneva's Calvin College where he studied economics and became fascinated by cinema. Following graduation and a brief stint as a merchant marine, Tanner began working for the British Film Institute in England where he worked in the information department organizing archives, adding subtitles to foreign films, translating, and other tasks. In 1957, Tanner made a short Free Cinema film, Nice Time, in collaboration with Claude Goretta. The film won a prize at that year's Venice Film Festival and received critical praise in Great Britain. By 1960, he had returned to Switzerland, after pausing in France where he assisted on the production of a few commercial films. It was in Paris that Tanner met a number of important French… read more

This makes me sick. Child trafficking with the help of the US Supreme Court.
Supreme Court Rules 5-4 In Favor of Capobiancos in Baby Veronica Case
Today the Supreme Court voted 5-4 in favor of granting custody of 3-year-old Veronica to the non-Indian couple Matt and Melanie Capobianco of South Carolina. Now the case will head back into South Carolina family courts, which will determine Veronica's placement. She has been living with her biological father, Dusten Brown, in Nowata, Oklahoma, since December 2011.
The case, formally known as Adoptive Couple v. Baby Girl, is one of the most important Indian legal battles of the last generation, and the implications it may have on the 1978 Indian Child Welfare Act are potentially devastating.
"It would undo [over] 35 years of work on the Indian Child Welfare Act," Chrissi Nimmo, the counsel of record for the Cherokee Nation, told Indian Country Today Media Network in April 2013. "Any adverse decision would impact every tribe in the country. There's no doubt."
Prior to Veronica's birth, Christina Maldonado, the non-Indian biological mother, had agreed to pre-adoptive placement with the Capobiancos without consulting Brown. The Capobiancos were never legally eligible to adopt Veronica, a member of the Cherokee Nation, and they paid Maldonado $10,000 and other expenses for Veronica.
In two courts, Brown successfully sued to regain custody of Veronica under the Indian Child Welfare Act. On December 28, 2011, the South Carolina Appellate Court ruled the Indian Child Welfare Act trumped South Carolina state law, stating that the Brown family has a "deeply embedded relationship" with their Cherokee heritage. On July 26, 2012, a South Carolina Supreme Court ruling upheld the appellate court's decision to give Brown full parental rights to Veronica.
Read The Fight for Baby Veronica Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 and Part 5 for in-depth coverage. More reports will come today including reactions from Indian country.

The potential here is that she has been living with her "father" for two years. All her memories are with that situation. To take her and give her to strangers may well cause a serious, emotion injury.
This poor child will have to
This poor child will have to be ripped from the people she lives with since 2011 and given to strangers. If her father has custody why is this still going to court. Horrendous.
When did the father request a
When did the father request a blood card. Veronica can only apply for a blood card after the father has obtained one and she has to then apply. Therefore the comment on Veronica a member of the Cherokee Nation may not be forthright. Why would Veronica's father who legally wavied all his rights during mother's pregnancy wait for TWO years to all of a sudden show up and decide he wants to be a dad....Really. This child is a human being and will always have her heritage of Cherokee and be able to engage in her heritage as an adopted child raised in a loving family. She can request her blood card if she truly is? Her dad's blood line is 3/128th, and he has to prove that one of his parents has a direct Cherokee blood line that goes all the way to the DAWES roles and with his blood showing 3/128th that is very questionable and now there is Veronica who is now a split off of that supposed 3/128th. South Carolina only ruled in father's case in begining was due to the ICWA, that has been overruled by the US Supreme Court, therefore South Carolina will now most likely reinstate the adopted parents rights per the ruling of the US Supreme Court. We need to stop tossing this innocent little girls life around as if she were a commodity. The adoptive parents could be sympathic and once she is back in their home, give permission for Veronica once or maybe couple times a year to visit her heritage and engage in their rituals to help her learn her heritage.

You left out the part about
You left out the part about the father abandoning his parental rights. And if the Capobiancos never had a legal right to adopt (?), why did the Supreme Court remand the case to South Carolina?
If it is what is best for the
If it is what is best for the child, regardless of race...who should have a problem with it if God doesn't?
Unfortunately, the current
Unfortunately, the current Supreme Court is conservative and tribes need to understand that they are wards of the federal government.
The piece here is accountability, so stop sugar coating the image of the father. He learned a valuable lesson.
The ICWA give Tribal Nations
The ICWA give Tribal Nations absolute decision making rights over placement of Native American Children. There should be cooperation between the courts and recognition of Native nations as sovereign nations. You wouldn't go into another country and circumvent their laws. It's important to recognize this right for Tribal Nations.
@Cookie Cutter Clark Nutter:
@Cookie Cutter Clark Nutter: There is no god, for starters. Secondly, who are YO U to determine what is best for someone else's child? You aren't, so get out of it.
just a mess....we are in the
just a mess....we are in the same situation in texas...in the eyes of the 'court' it wouldnt matter what is in the minor child of any race's best interest..it totally does not matter who the child has lived and grown up with, that minor child will go to a surviving parent, no matter if the child has never lived with that parent, or parents were divorced, estranged, etc....
I also feel the court's
I also feel the court's decision is ridiculous. I hope the grandparents get in on the act and petition for custody as well. The child should be with her father.
DJ - The father did not wait
DJ - The father did not wait for two years. I see this comment a lot and people like you clearly do not understand the situation or the speed of courts. He was deployed for an entire year. That brings it down to one year that he was gone. You do realize that you can have months between court visits, right? The timeline on this case shows that it's moved pretty fast but they're still only averaging about one 'verdict' a month and the case keeps being bounced around between different states and different courts in each state. It took months and months of fighting in court for him to win custody, at which point Veronica was two years old at that time. It didn't mean he wasn't fighting since before that. It meant that it takes months and years to actually get a solid verdict and until he got that verdict Veronica stayed where she was...with the Capobiancos. He did not wait and simply show up at two and pick her up from their house one day, as you try to claim.
You also don't seem to understand the damage that adoption does to a child's original culture. Just because you may not feel that Veronica is FN or entitled to anything doesn't mean it's true. When you are adopted your new family can move thousands of miles away from all traces of your original culture. I was Veronica. I was adopted in the 1980s by a non-FN family who moved from an inland area to a coastal area where none of the same tribes even existed. They can change your name, adding more difficulty. The mere fact of *being* adopted and often having to try and track down paperwork (for legal reasons) from agencies that tend not to keep documents or be helpful or make you jump through dozens of loopholes to get your own information makes it a nightmare. It can take months or even years to even get your own papers or information from them, and it also costs money most times. You're also working against your adoptive family who adopted you to be part of them, they didn't adopt you to join your culture. That makes it not only hopeless when you're a child who can't make your own phonecalls or drive yourself to events or locations, but awkward even as an adolescent when you have zero support from them. It's clear in this case that the CB family intends to raise Veronica as a white child. Every step of the way they (and their supporters) have downplayed Veronica's heritage, scoffed at it and tried to make her as latino and caucasian as possible. Veronica will be lucky to get one token event a year, if that. Adoption is one of the most destructive forces towards culture there is.

enc--Thanks! I wonder if anyone noticed that one of those pictures was actually taken with the people looking into a mirror? And that you can see my camera taking the shot too?
Glad you liked the pictures as they were taken without a flash...
altamira - I was there with a friend taking photos as well, once he has them edited/fixed up, I'll definitely throw them up here.
the shot of the comme des garçons is it shot into a mirror?

I've got a client who's having permission errors with the ReadyNAS where OS X will tell him he cannot copy the files due to invalid permissions. This happens about halfway through the transfer which is multiple files from multiple systems probably about 3 TB of Data. So the issue seems to be at some point in time he copied many different files from different OS X users and now when we try to copy them off of the NAS to another unit or to a local machine he gets a permission denied from OS X.
I've got a few ideas but was wondering what one would recommend just incase, we're using an OS X Lion Server to run the new file sharing solution. So would logging in as a the local root user have any effect, or will this be an issue that will have to be correct on the Netgear NAS its self. If that's the case can we run a chmod command from the NAS or via OS X terminal to change all permissions (this seems like a messy solution) or alternatively is there an application we can use?
Another option just go into the More Info option and apply the permissions for the admin user on the server and apply to all enclosed items?
Basically aside from going through folder by folder and copying one by one until we find the folder that's got the issue what would our other options be?

A Ripton man is in good condition after a dispute over a beer sent him to the hospital with a stab wound early Sunday morning.
According to Rutland City Police, Douglas Smith, 39, and Cynthia Namiot, 39, of Rutland, were drinking at a residence on Forest Street when the two had an argument over which beer belonged to whom.
According to police, Namiot stabbed Smith once in his torso. Smith was taken to Rutland Regional Medical Center. He was listed in good condition Sunday afternoon, according to a hospital spokewoman.
Police charged Namiot with aggravated assault and violating the conditions of her release on an unrelated charge.

The Arkansas One-Day Camp concluded Saturday afternoon, and there was some impressive talent on hand.Wakeland (Texas) quarterback Will Secord had a good showing at the camp as he worked with quarterbacks coach Garrick McGee. McGee really broke down everything with Secord, and towards the end of the camp the lefty experienced some cramping in his forearm because he threw so much.
