James Scott has gone ahead with his pledge to try to withdraw from his plea agreement, a deal that saw him spared the death penalty after being convicted in the 1999 killing of Chicago Police Officer John Knight.
Scott, not his public defenders, wrote the motion to withdraw and mailed it to the clerk of Cook County Circuit Court at the Criminal Courts Building on the same day he sent letters about his case to his attorneys and the Tribune. In the letter he said he would abandon his plea arrangement.

Final Declaration EFG Hydrogeology workshop | |
Final declaration from the European Federation of Geologist's Hydrogeology workshop - European water policy: challenges for hydrogeologists 22-23 November 2013 Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels About 60% of all drinking water in Europe comes from groundwater. Considering the vital importance of ensuring the quality and the sustainable exploration of the European groundwater bodies, the European Federation of Geologists organised on 22 and 23 November 2013 a Hydrogeology workshop with the theme 'European water policy: challenges for hydrogeologists'. The workshop was attended by nearly 80 participants from 18 different countries including several representatives of the European Commission. This fact demonstrates the increasing interest of experts and policy makers in groundwater issues, in phase with the launch of the new EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, Horizon 2020. The public was composed of professionals active in all aspects of groundwater reaching from research to water management. The presence of professionals from different professional activity and countries provided thus an excellent basis for stimulating debates and experience exchanges setting the ground for future collaborations. The aim of the workshop was to highlight those areas where hydrogeologists are playing an important role in the implementation of the European water policy. The first section provided an introduction to current water policy, including presentations from all relevant EU water policy areas. EFG thanks the support received by the European Commission and their broad representation by the participation as speakers and chairmen from DG Enterprise and Industry, DG Environment, DG Research and Innovation and of the European Environment Agency. This first section was followed by four technical sections on Land use and ecological status; Chemical status and pollution; Water efficiency and Vulnerability, with presentations from experts from EFG's Panel on Hydrogeology and from the supporting organisations. The workshop ended with a Final Declaration prepared by the EFG Panel of Experts on Hydrogeology. Stressing the importance of bringing groundwater to light in our everyday lives through education and training at all societal levels from secondary school education to continuing professional training, the European Federation of Geologists hopes that in the future groundwater issues will attract more attention within Horizon 2020 calls for proposals and other policy areas such as environment and development. |

Spill leaves North 4th Street in Murray hazardous for driving | Transportation
Title (Max 100 Characters)
MURRAY, KY (KFVS) - The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet reports hazardous driving conditions on KY 2075/North 4th Street after a vehicle left an oil or hydraulic fluid spill.
This is along about a ½ mile section of KY 2075/North 4th Street between Andrus Drive and Bee Creek Bridge north of Murray's downtown area.
The KYTC Calloway County Highway Maintenance Crew has spread #11 stone along this section in an effort to absorb the oil and improve traction for vehicles.
Due to the threat of rain and the continued hazard posed by an oil slick along KY 2075/North 4th Street in Murray, the KYTC Calloway County Highway Maintenance Crews say they have placed message boards at each end of this section to alert motorists to potential traction issues.
Transportation officials say most of the oil appears to be along the northbound lane, but may be tracked over to the southbound lane in places. Crews says fine gravel spread over the oil slick has helped provide better traction and absorbed the oil.
Crews say message boards will remain along this section until sometime Tuesday morning when an environmental remediation team should complete clean up of the area.
Drivers are asked to use caution along KY 2075/North 4th Street between Andrus Drive and the Bee Creek Bridge. This is the connector from downtown Murray to US 641 North.
The owner of the vehicle that leaked the fluid will be responsible for cleaning the roadway and any environmental issues, according to KYTC.
Drivers are urged to use caution along this section of KY 2075/North 4th Street in Murray.

A significant percentage of fast food enthusiasts and connoisseurs realize by now the lack of vitamins and nutrients in meals that most fast food restaurants offer. Whether it is a big greasy burger, a plate of fries or a huge container of soda, most of the national chains will force you to drop into a fetal position lying in your bed screaming for a month.
Although studies and news reports will claim how bad eating at McDonald's, Wendy's or Burger King is for you, a lot of health experts and reporters will not go into detail about what specific items are worse than others.
There are three factors to consider when making the distinction between a Big Mac and a Whopper: calories, sodium and fat.
Here are the top seven least healthy fast food items (in no particular order) available to almost anyone.
Burger King: Quad Stacker
With nearly 1,000 calories and 28 grams of saturated fat, Burger King's Quad Stacker is one of the worst burgers around for your heart. It even consists of 1,740 (mg) of sodium – the suggested daily intake of sodium for a person between the ages of nine and 50 is 1,500 mg.
Taco Bell: Volcano Nachos
Unhealthy fast food meals don't just have to be burgers and sandwiches, but also nachos. Taco Bell's Volcano Nachos have exactly 1,000 calories, nine grams of saturated fat and 1,570 milligrams of sodium.
McDonald's: Chocolate Triple Thick Shake (32oz.)
More than a Big Mac, Angus Bacon and Cheese Burger or a large soda, the McDonald's Chocolate Triple Thick Shake has 1,160 calories, 27 grams of fat and only 250 milligrams of sodium.
Red Robin: Wise Guy Burger
This is a burger that is topped with marinara sauce, pepperoni and three fried mozzarella sticks. If you thought the Quad Stacker was going to send you to the emergency room, look at this one's calorie content information: 1,012 calories, 2,020 milligrams of sodium and 51 grams of fat.
Carl's Jr.: Double Six Dollar Burger
Although it's a pretty simple burger that seems like any other sandwich at your local Burger King or Wendy's: two beef patties, cheese, bacon and the other condiments. This is, though, a hefty burger: 1,522 calories, 110 grams of fat and 2,572 milligrams of sodium.
Nathan's: French Fries (large)
French fries are certainly delicious, but they are not a terrific alternative to taters, vegetables and salads. Nathan's large French Fries have 759 calories, 52 grams of fat and 278 milligrams of sodium
KFC: Double Down
It was rated the worst sandwich on Earth. A sandwich that is just gluttonous (bacon, two different kinds of melted cheese, secret sauce and two chicken fillets), it's no surprise that many viewed it as that. Nevertheless, it was a successful sandwich, but not good for bodies everywhere: 610 calories, 37 grams of fat and 1,880 milligrams of sodium.

Department of Workforce Development
Home > News Releases > Governor Presents December WIN Award to the Wilson Street Grill | |||||
GOVERNOR PRESENTS DECEMBER WIN AWARDMADISON—Gov. Tommy G. Thompson today announced that Nancy Christy of the Wilson Street Grill in Madison, Wisconsin has won the December Governor's Workforce Innovation Award (WIN), which recognizes individuals and organizations that create innovative approaches and outside-of-the-box solutions to develop and sustain Wisconsin's workforce. "Nancy Christy deserves recognition for her efforts in hiring people with disabilities," Gov. Thompson said. "She's been doing for 13 years, what many are just now figuring out – that people with disabilities make good employees, and she's successfully fighting the labor shortage at the same time." At the Wilson Street Grill, a downtown Madison restaurant, there are a total of 12 employees, or 30 percent of the staff, that are people with disabilities. Ms. Christy doesn't just hire people with disabilities, she actively recruits them. She hires them because she believes they make good employees, and her efforts are paying off. Not only do people with disabilities make great employees because they do good work, they also stick around. In an industry that is notorious for high employee turnover, the turnover at her Wilson Street Grill is very low. The WIN award is presented each month to highlight innovative approaches and solutions to overcoming barriers to work, empowering individuals to move up the job ladder, and partnering with employers, educators and local government to do what works to build a stronger workforce. The award goes to organizations and individuals that significantly advance one or more of the following:

Fire Hart, replace with Fulmer and fire Jimmy Cheek while you're at it.Cheek has done absolutely nothing. Hart hasn't either.Both have created big time problems.
That's a turnaround the University can get behind.
What do you mean Cheek hasn't done anything. Jimmy Cheek gave Al Gore an honorary doctorate degree awarded by the University of Tennessee.
"In awarding the degree, UT Knoxville Chancellor Jimmy G. Cheek said the former vice president is "among the most accomplished and respected Tennesseans in history."
"Vice President Gore's career has been marked by visionary leadership, and his work has quite literally changed our planet for the better," Cheek said in a university announcement of the award."

Now if that's not something, I don't know what is.
Maybe Gore can come back after Cheek is gone and say some similar imaginary things about the ex-Chancellor.

Priming cider
I'm m making my first batch of cider. I'm getting ready to bottle and am not sure how much priming sugar to add. I want a good carbonation without an explosion. Any help would be appreciated
You don't need any sugar for cider. There is already enough.
Really? I always added 3/4 cup sugar to 5 gal. dry cider before bottling.
If your cider is dry you will need to add priming sugar. If you cold crash and then bottle with some residual sweetness you do not. However you will most likely need to stovetop pasteurize unless there is just enough residual sugar to carbonate.
http://hbd.org/cgi-bin/recipator/recipator/carbonation.html |
use exactly the same amount as for beer. 2.5 volumes CO2 is a pretty good mid level carbonation to shoot for. i wouldn't go much higher than that in regular beer bottles. use any online priming calculator such as this one:

Decatur resident Kenny Roop has had his fill of snow — enough to last the entire winter season. Shoveling the sidewalk in front of his 11th Street home in Decatur Tuesday morning, Roop said simply, "I'm tired of it." Area residents may be able to put their snow shovels away for awhile, with unseasonably warm temperatures and even a little rain in the forecast for later this week.

MEMBER ALERT: AOPA will be closing at 1:45 p.m. Eastern on Dec. 6 and will reopen at 8:30 a.m. Eastern on Dec. 9.
May 25, 2010
AOPA ePublishing staff
The FAA has proposed an airworthiness directive (AD) for certain aircraft equipped with Rotax 912 A series engines that would require the inspection of crankcases for cracks and replacement of the crankcase if cracks are found.
The proposed AD results from a similar directive issued by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) because of reports of cracks in the engine crankcase. The FAA estimates it would affect 60 products of U.S. registry. It would apply to all versions of Bombardier-Rotax GmbH 912 A, 912 F, and 912 S series engines; see the AD for a list of affected aircraft.
The AD is intended to prevent a sudden loss of power that could lead to a hazardous situation in a low-altitude phase of flight, the proposal states. Operators would be required to follow instructions laid out in Rotax Aircraft Engines Service Bulletin SB-912-029 R3.
Pilots may comment on the proposed AD online under Docket No. FAA-2010-0522.
Topics Airworthiness, Aircraft Maintenance, Airworthiness Directive, FAA Financial and Regulatory, EASA, International Aviation, Inspection, FAA, Government Agencies, Engine, Aircraft Components and Gear
A House bill that would force FAA to go through the rulemaking process before imposing new policies for sleep disorders has passed a key committee.
The House has passed a bill requiring the TSA to consult stakeholders, including general aviation representatives, before making major changes to security policy.
A bad spark plug can do a lot of damage. Giving them a look more than once a year can pay dividends.
AOPA thanks our members for their continued support in protecting the freedom to fly.

It is situated to the north of passage from the Java Trench (subduction front) to the Timor Through (collision front). It does not show still the effects of strong compression in contrast to islands of the outer arc system (Savu, Roti, Timor), while the magmatic units make up a substantial part of the Late Cretaceous to Paleogene stratigraphy.

Masturbation has become very difficult. I don't even know what I'm into anymore. I guess I'm into Chris. Perhaps I should take Bob's advice and go a month without sex and see where that takes me. It seems like a temporary period of abstinence would solve any sexual confusion that I'm currently experiencing. It's so hard for me to go a week. Sometimes days without sex seems like eternity. I've noticed that after going several days/weeks without sex, I grow somewhat afraid of it. I imagine that's why I was an alcoholic a year ago. In order to defeat my fear of sex, I had to be drunk and I had to do it all the time. So do I really like sex? Do I like smoking? Two things that constantly run through my mind: I wish I was having sex. I wish I was smoking. Maybe if I quit both I'll realize how little I need either. I'll be able to focus on the real issues. Like how many repeaters I will need to defeat the zombies. If he was here I wouldn't need to masturbate. I would have been asleep hours ago. Lying next to him offers a sense of security. Touching myself is a pathetic compromise for his absence. It's no wonder I can't sleep or get off. |
Facebook is a social networking site. It is intended for people who want to stay in contact with their old friends and stalk them accordingly. Why in the hell would anyone create a facebook account for their child? I understand if you want your friends to see pictures of your kid. I have no objection to that. Just put in on your own facebook. Create albums for your kid. Make your status about your kid. Hell, put your kid's face as your profile picture if it's so damn imporant. I wouldn't want my mother creating an account for me. I wouldn't even want my mom to get facebook and add me as a friend, let alone create an account for me, add all of her friends and proceed to put embarassing baby photos all over the goddamn internet. Why do we use facebook? It's an easy way of sorting out your address book and contacting people without picking up the phone or sending an awkward email. Why would a newborn baby need facebook? So they can immediately be friends with all his/her parent's friends before they can even talk. It seems like exploitation to me. Putting up pictures of your baby so your friends can see is one thing. Adding all your friends to your child's account is another. What happens ten years from now when your child actually uses facebook for its intended purpose and decides that he/she no longer wants to be friends with all your old drinking buddies? Ouch. This is retarded. Don't create an account for your child and insist that all your friends befriend him or her. It's just stupid. Do it the old fashioned way and make a damn scrapbook. |

As a homeowner facing foreclosure, I found Ms. Axsmith online and gave her a call a few months ago. She took the time to understand my situation and offered very helpful general advice on how I might proceed. At no time did she request a contract or retainer. I found her approach comforting and reassuring compared to the many lawyers in this town who only seem to want the money. I hope to retain Ms. Axsmith when my foreclosure case is formalized.

I contacted Ms. Axsmith about a complicated legal real estate matter and she did not turn me away like most attorneys I had contacted. She was very interested in my matter and she took time to understand the issues. I believe that I will hire her once the next step of my case has completed. I appreciate an attorney that is interested enough to take time to listen to a situation that is complex but achievable.

Wow! Just got off the phone with Ms. Axsmith, and recieved a fantastically helpful and generous consultation, without charge.
I'm a DC landlord, and had questions about a whole bunch of things. Flood damage, (not) charging rent when the place is a wreck and under construction, leases, tenants giving notice, me giving notice, advance rent, and understanding DC law and the courts.
She made time for all of this, for free, enlightened me with clear ideas and directions, and wished me well--no hard sell for a fee consultation or service to buy from her.
Axsmith gets it--help people if you can, and charge them when they need the really complicated stuff. And I feel confident that I can visit her for that paid help if I need it, and receive the same courteous, thoughtful professionalism I benefitted from today.
Hot dang, I never expected to get that much help from a lawyer with a simple phone call!

I had a real estate matter in whcih I was unsure about which direction to go in. Ms. Axsmith gave me solid advice, which I really respected. She was very professional and courteous. Based on our conversation, I would recommend her.

Axsmith is dependable and has incisive instincts and gets to the meat of the case. My short sale went well and before the bank wouldn't even call me back.

I contacted Ms. Axsmith with questions about guardianship and foreclosure. I have had a number of questions that I had previously been unable to get answers to. Ms. Axsmith was very knowledgeable about both of these areas of law and provided me with helpful information; she even informed me of some new changes in the law. I appreciate Ms. Axsmith taking the time to talk with me and respond to my questions. I look forward to working with her as I seek to avoid foreclosure.

I was mostly impressed with Ms. Axsmith turn around time.
She researched the situation and provided information/results almost immediatley. I will call upon her in the future.

Ms. Axsmith was aggressive and effective when helping us with out tenancy issues. Our landlord was trying everything in the book, but after we consulted Axsmith, we had nothing else to worry about within a matter of days.

We didn't know what to do. Our mother couldn't take care of herself anymore and was being taken advantage of by a caregiver we hired before. Attorney Axsmith went to court and got my mother's care in the hands of a family member. She found money my mother had that she forgot about.
Attorney Axsmith found a good facility for her and we are really happy with what she did for us.

Trading in Google stock was halted Thursday
after it dropped more than 9 percent in the aftermath of a badly
timed earnings release in which the Internet giant missed market
The quarterly earnings report had been scheduled for release after
the close of trading, but Google inexplicably filed the document with
the Securities and Exchange Commission at the height of trading.
The company's results showed that profit slipped to $2.18 billion
from $2.73 billion in the same quarter a year ago, while
revenue was up to $11.33 billion below Wall Street's
expectations of $11.9 billion.
The decline in profits was attributed largely to Google's takeover
of loss-making smartphone maker Motorola earlier in the year, causing
a rise in operating expenses from $3.28 billion a year ago to
$4.81 billion in the recent quarter.
Google said that the earnings report had been filed by the
company's financial printers RR Donnelley without permission.

As if there was no tomorrow
Tonight is the night, because tonight this year's TEDDY AWARD CEREMONY takes place and we know it will awesomely beautiful. But afterwards? What comes after the party, the flush, the excess? – The morning after. The black hole, the hangover breakfast, the grey sky over Berlin. But what is tomorrow, if we have tonight! Therefore at least today we live as if there was no tomorrow! As just as the protagonists of today's movies do: Porn actors try to put some order into their lives, others rather take care of animals, and again others take care of their brothers. Furthermore we have movies about this year's SPECIAL TEDDY AWARD winners Mario Montez and Ulrike Ottinger. And for sure we bringe you new thrilling interviews, filmclips and all of today's movies in the programme overview.
Eighteen-year-old Angelina works at a launderette and is determined to make something of her life. After earning a bit of cash posing for nude photos she uses the money to escape her white trash background and dysfunctional family and run off to San Francisco with her best pal. After several jobs she gradually drifts into San Francisco's porn industry where, using the moniker CHERRY, her naïve yet sexy aura soon brings her success and the opportunity to explore her own sexuality. This self-confident young woman also has to cope with the many prejudices that exist for someone in her line of work; a lawyer who wants to 'save' her turns out to have problems with addiction. Finally, she finds an understanding friend and partner in her director, who has similar problems with her own lover. Before long, Angelina decides to try her hand at directing her own porn film. In his cinematic debut, director Stephen Eliott's creates a portrait of a young woman in search of herself and her place in the world that is devoid of false morality and voyeurism and approaches its myth-laden topic of porn with a gaze that is fresh and dispassionate. CinemaxX 7, 10.30 am |
The Revolution is my Boyfriend |
'Born activist' Vito Russo was a New York film critic, screenwriter and LGBT activist. Over decades he was to become one of the most charismatic, eloquent and inspiring personalities of the American gay movement post-Stonewall. He gained fame for his live lecture performances of his 1981 book The Celluloid Closet which explored the representation of homosexuality in film and has today become a standard work on this topic, in which Russo could ideally combine his love of show business with radical gay politics. He was a guest of the Berlinale's Panorama in 1984 for the screening of the film of the same title for which directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman won a Teddy Award in 1996 and subsequently an Academy Award. A rich selection of archive material and statements from friends and activists has been brought together to form VITO, the portrait of an energetic and indefatigably active individual who remains an indispensable figure of queer memory. Vito Russo died of Aids in 1990. CineStar 7, 2.30 pm |

SPECIAL TEDDY AWARD II: Ulrike Ottinger |
ULRIKE OTTINGER, THE NOMADE FROM THE LAKE, is an exceptional filmmaker and artist. It all began on the shores of Lake Constance where Ulrike Ottinger was born and where she still often spends time. Filmmaker Brigitte Kramer chose to begin her film at Lake Constance since she too shares Ottinger's birthplace and a great love of these waters. This is also where the filmmaker's own artistic development began, not least as a result of her encounter with Ottinger and her work. Using this common ground as a starting point for an exploration of Ottinger's substantial oeuvre, this documentary provides a keen insight into the artist's life and work. Ulrike Ottinger will be honoured with this year's SPECIAL TEDDY AWARD. Magnus Rosengarten speaks in an interview with Ulrike Ottinger about her filmmaking and with Brigitte Kramer about her documentary on Ulrike Ottinger. Colosseum 1, 3.30 pm |

All I've got is a Memory |
UNTER MÄNNERN – SCHWUL IN DER DDR (AMONG MEN – GAY IN THE GDR) addresses the question of how gay men lived and could live their lives under 'real socialism'. In this documentary we meet six men who talk openly about their social and intimate experiences, some for the first time, and get to know several individuals who could hardly be more diverse. At one end of the scale is Frank Schäfer, a barber and a resourceful individualist; at the other, Eduard Stapel, an theologist who founded a GDR-wide network of homosexual associations and upon whom the Stasi firmly set its sights. All this happens from the perspective of the director Ringo Rösener who was born in the GDR but is too young to have really experienced it. He is on the search for memories of a country, which does not exist anymore. CineStar 7, 5.00 pm |
Fight for Emancipation |
It is exactly twenty years since the celebrated Afro-American poet and writer AUDRE LAURDE died in 1992. According to her own description of herself she was: 'a lesbian, a feminist, black, a poet, mother and activist'. In the 1980s Dagmar Schultz, who at the time was lecturing at the John F. Kennedy Institute at Berlin's Freie Universität, invited Audre Lorde to Berlin as a visiting professor. This move was to have an enduring influence, for Lorde soon became co-founder and mentor of the Afro-German movement. In her documentary portrait, Dagmar Schultz distils hitherto unpublished and often very personal material of Lorde that portrays her among her Berlin women friends, fellow-travellers and students, many of whom she encouraged to begin writing. Our reporter Magnus Rosengarten talks in an interview with the filmmakers about their research for the movie and their personal contact with Audre Lorde. Cubix 7, 5.30 pm |

Paradise Lost |
Saigon, this pulsating urbane megacity spells hope and desire for Khoi, who has escaped from his rural background. His search for somewhere to live brings him in contact with Dong, a smooth operator who agrees to take him in. At Dong's apartment Khoi meets Dong's boyfriend, Lam. The two men steal everything the newcomer owns and disappear. Dong dumps Lam, who goes back to life as a streetworker. Khoi earns a crust as a carrier. Then one day Khoi happens to run into Lam, who is keen to make good after having stolen Khoi's belongings. A fragile love affair ensues. But Dong is determined to destroy the tender romance between these two lost souls… The director Vu Ngoc created with LOST IN PARADISE an modern asian fairy tale. Somewhere between unbearbale lightness, fragile emotions and human abysses grows the story of two young men and their struggle for happiness. CineStar 3, 5.45 pm |
Into the wild |
After serving time in prison, Francine settles down in small-town North America. Through a series of temporary jobs, she tries to regain a foothold in society. However, this security proves just as elusive as the connections she tries to forge with people in the town. As her human relationships falter, Francine looks to animals for support, a development that leads her in a tragically wrong direction. Brian M. Cassidy and Melanie Shatzky's fiction debut FRANCINE focuses on the title figure. Oscar winner Melissa Leo conveys the longings and woes of the distressed protagonist with remarkable precision. As the protagonist moves through the film's impressive locations, her path through life is much like an orbiting satellite: detached, lonely and ultimately destined to crash. CineStar 8, 7.30 pm |
Of knights and men |
Carlos is spending the summer in the country with his family in order to help out with things. Perhaps he won't even be returning to the capital, as economic prospects are hardly rosy there either. Extremadura on the other hand, sparsely populated and for a long time one of the most neglected regions in Europe, is experiencing a tentative upturn. Tourism and modernisation rub shoulders with almost archaic customs and a conservative, mostly elderly population here. "You don't look like you're from here", remarks Juan when they meet. "I'm not from here" replies Carlos, "I live in Madrid." Whether to be from here or elsewhere is a decision that many here have to make.
SLEEPLESS KNIGHTS depicts all this in casual, unobtrusive fashion, in images that have at times a truly otherworldly beauty. The central theme is the love story between the newly returned Carlos and the young policeman Juan.
Tonight is the night! This year's TEDDY AWARD will be given away during the big TEDDY GALA CEREMONY in the former airport Tempelhof. Everybody who has no ticket yet: Hurry up! Because this event with an awesome party afterwards should not be missed! The who is who of the evening you will find here: TEDDY GALA.

ROAD MOVIE examines contemporary life in Palestine, where residents of the West Bank are confronted with a segregated and impossible road system made all the more problematic and unpredictable by shifting political currents. The subjects of the films – from Palestinian ambulance and taxi drivers to Israeli settlers and human-rights activists – offer a unique and unconventional glimpse into the human landscape of this volatile land. The installation is full of arresting and vibrant images, from the deserts of the Jordan Valley to the circumference of Jerusalem.
Gutschow-Haus, 11 am - 8 pm
A world of ones own |
The video montage A WORLD OF OUR OWN weaves together stories of various Cosmo-figures, female explorers of worlds known and unknown, actual and fictional freedom fighters across different times and places, who assemble for a future mission in the world's largest financial centre. They are linked through time and space through a montage of various elements, such as drawn animation, video footage shot by the artist, and found footage, combined with sound snippets from different sources, interview excerpts, radio transmission, music, written text, again animated. Both elusive and concrete the installation addresses current political struggles and feminist legacies, the past seeping into the present and enabling a different future. Kunstsäle Berlin, 11 am - 8 pm |

"Beuys had his uniform, Warhol his silk screen, Steve Reinke has his voice. It is a kind of signature, a costume for the masquerade of personality, but more importantly: a guarantor of pleasure." Mike Hoolboom THE TINY VENTRILOQUIST is a suite of shorter works. In these works, Reinke tries on and discards many voices, stances, histories, and ideologies. His style ranges from drawn animation to home and diary video to found footage. Connecting the wide range of stylistic approaches is Steve Reinke himself, acting as the narrator of his darkly humorous miniatures. Together they form a machine for draining all meaning from the world. Gutschow-Haus, 2.00 - 6.00 pm |

February 14, 2012Disruptive InnovationOr how UX and CX can be disruptive. Love the comments. "A disruptive technology or disruptive innovation is an innovation that helps create a new market and value network, and eventually goes on to disrupt an existing market and value network. The term is used in business and technology literature to describe innovations that improve a product or service in ways that the market does not expect. Although the term disruptive technology is widely used, disruptive innovation seems a more appropriate term in many contexts since few technologies are intrinsically disruptive; rather, it is the business model that the technology enables that creates the disruptive impact."

According to our definition, a database is an organized collection of data that serves some purpose. Simply having MySQL up and running is not sufficient to give your database a purpose. How you use the data you put in your MySQL database defines its purpose. Imagine a library where nobody ever reads the books. There would not be much point in storing and organizing all those books if they're never used. Now, imagine a library where you could not change or add to the collection. The utility of the library as a database would decrease over time since obsolete books could never be replaced and new books could never be added. In short, a library exists so that people may read the books and find the information they seek.
Databases exist so that people can interact with them. In the case of electronic databases, the interaction occurs not directly with the database, but indirectly through software applications. Before the emergence of the World Wide Web, databases typically were used by large corporations to support various business functions: accounting and finance, shipping and inventory control, manufacturing planning, human resources, and so on. The Web and more complex home computing tasks have helped move the need for database applications outside the realm of the large corporation.

The recent political chatter about "Obamacare" before the Supreme Court of the United States got a great deal of media attention. President Obama added fuel to the fire when he declared, "Ultimately, I am confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."
For someone who was a law professor those words were absurd. Even if a bill passed unanimously in the house and senate, it could still be overturned – if the law was in violation of the Constitution.
"It used to be, if you were having a heart attack, you called your doctor and he met you at the hospital," a respected physician told me recently. "The primary physician determined what was wrong with you and sent you to a specialist to fix it. Today, the primary's main job is to funnel patients into the system's network of specialists."
Some physicians must now make a special effort even to look patients in the face, because they spend so much of the time-limited appointments clicking boxes on a computer screen.
The Cuomo administration has expended millions of taxpayer dollars for television ads aimed at promoting state government and burnishing Governor Andrew Cuomo's image. The latter goal is a tough sell, a Siena College Poll indicates.
The current taxpayer-funded TV advertising campaign began around Sandy's one-year anniversary, and steers viewers to http://stormrecovery.ny.gov/, The Governor's Office of Storm Recovery. Narrated by actor Chazz Palminteri, the slick spot closes with a visual tag line which says "Better than before."

The composition of the New York state Senate was up in the air as of Thanksgiving Eve, with absentee ballots still being counted in upstate's 46th Senatorial District (SD).
State Assemblyman George Amedore (R-Rotterdam) held a slight edge in the 46th SD's balloting on that day over his Democratic opponent, Duanesburg, NY school board member Cecilia Tkaczyk. Should Assemblyman Amedore become Senator Amedore, the Republicans will have won 31 of the 63 state Senate seats on Tuesday, Nov. 6.
So, the GOP will be in the state Senate's minority next year then, right? Not necessarily. Brooklyn state Senator-elect Simcha Felder, elected as a Democrat on the first Tuesday of November, announced this month that he would caucus with the Republicans and become their 31st member, allowing the GOP to retain the state Senate's majority, if Amedore became the 32nd Republican state Senator.
As such, the outcome in New York's 46th SD has very real consequences for Long Island, which re-elected its eight Republican incumbent state Senators as well as a new one, state Assemblyman Philip Boyle (R-Bay Shore), who will succeed the retiring state Senator Owen Johnson.
Should the Republicans hold a 32-31 majority in the state Senate when the state Legislature reconvenes in January 2013, Nassau and Suffolk will have sent nine of those 32 senators to Albany, giving this region a sizable say in how federal monies related to Hurricane Sandy are allocated, and how the Long Island Power Authority is restructured. State educational aid disbursements are also a big issue, as school boards will struggle in 2013 to keep their property tax increases limited to 2 percent, or less, in advance of spring's budget votes.
Should Senator Tkaczyk become the 32nd Democrat in the state Senate, the first thing you'll likely see is Senator Felder walking back across the aisle, giving the Democrats a 33-30 majority. That will also certainly mean state Senator Dean Skelos (R-Rockville Centre) is no longer the state Senate's majority leader.
If you follow Albany's political machinations, you've probably read or heard about a group of four renegade state Senators, all of whom are Democrats, who have little use for the Democrats who would likely lead the state Senate under this scenario. These senators are supposedly open to forming a coalition with the GOP, allowing Senator Skelos to remain as majority leader in exchange for certain governmental goodies (e.g., committee chairmanships, which allow state legislators to boost their clout and pay).
A small group of New York City Democrats held majority leadership positions in the state Senate in 2009 and 2010, and didn't distinguish themselves, these four Democratic state Senators correctly concluded. Exhibit A: the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's (MTA) payroll tax was enacted in 2009. That tax was partially rescinded only after the GOP regained control of the state Senate in 2011.
The problem for the state Senate's GOP candidates this year came in places like the mid-Hudson Valley, where state Senator Stephen Saland (R-Poughkeepsie) was ousted, and in Westchester County, where the talented Bob Cohen was unable to flip retiring state Senator Suzi Oppenheimer's (D-Mamaroneck) seat into the Republican column. That's why the GOP is obsessing over the 46th SD.

Candy & Candy, the award-winning interior deisgn firm whom I featured a while back, is set to grow. Its notoriously good design team will double, from 50 to 100 people during 2006. Having just finished designing the grand interior of a 150ft Benetti yacht, they have now got plans to bring their design services to jets and boats as well. Last year the firm sold an apartment in Chelsea Square for £27 million, one of the highest prices fetched for an apartment.

Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin admitted there are still issues facing women who hope to make a mark in business. Issues like equal pay for equal work and advancement to executive status.
During a recent business forum the first woman elected to be the State of Oklahoma "CEO" said progress is being made. Governor Fallin said 15% of Fortune 500 companies are either run by a woman or at least have women on their board of directors. Fallin said while that is an improvement from just a few years ago she would like to see that percentage climb.
The greatest opportunity for woman to get into the business world in her opinion is in small business. Governor Fallin said small business is leading the way in regards to being created, started, and run by woman.
In a message geared to young women hoping to get into the corporate world, Governor Fallin urged them to get the education needed that in turn can open the doors to corporate America and crack the glass ceiling.

Part drama, and part soft-hued neutrals and nudes—The Italian Summertime Collection from Dolce & Gabbana brings several contrasting tones together, and makes it work!
"We were very much inspired by the ideas behind the Summer 11 runway," says Stefano Gabbana, "We wanted to reflect the Sicilian culture with a fresh interpretation. We began by imagining a young bride's hope chest, full of treasures from the past and the present that are the key to her future. To capture this moment of purity and deep passion, the moment when a woman's future beckons was so challenging… yet, in the end, the collection evolved so naturally, it could work for any significant passage of a woman's life."
Who better to bring this challenging concept to fruition than the legendary Pat McGrath? Collaborating with Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, McGrath achieves Sicilian flavor with modern elements in this collection for summer 2011. Lipsticks in shimmering neutrals (Perla and Luna), the PERFECT nude (Mandorla), and a shocking red (Venere) start things off on the right track. These are extremely luxurious and creamy, and remind me of the formulas of lipsticks that 50′s screen sirens must have worn, both in texture and fragrance. These are extremely feminine in every way!
For the eyes, you'll find the Smooth Eye Colour Quad in Vulcano to keep things warm and toasty. This combination of rich and deep purples with rustic nudes provides very strong color payoff.
To partner with the eyes, try out either of the gorgeous Crayon Intense Eyeliners in Bronzo (shimmering bronze) or Agave (rich shimmering grey-green). (As photographed with the Precision Lipliner in Caramello—which will look fab with the Venere lipstick!) One of the features I love about the Dolce & Gabbana pencils is that the Crayon Intense Eyeliners feature a smudger on the the end, and the Precision Lipliner has a lip brush for easy blending. They're just those nice little added details for the perfect finishing touch with a little luxury.
For lipgloss, there are two Ultra-Shine Lipgloss shades; Acqua (a clear gloss with patent-leather shine), and Cannella (a very warm and shimmery bronze). I highly recommend pairing the clear Acqua over any of the shimmering lipstick shades—Perla or Luna for a super sexy transparent effect.
The Mascara, Volumized Lashes in Dahlia pairs up with the Vulcano eye quad well since there are plums—but I think it will really draw out the depth of color in green or hazel eyes!
Using the lightest shade in the Vulcano quad, the Crayon Intense Eyeliner in Agave, and Volumized Lashes in Dahlia:
For the face in Italian Summertime, Dolce & Gabbana offers up the Luminous Cheek Colour in Sole:
As intimidating as it might look in the pan, I assure you it's not a scary color at all! Of course, as with any blush—application is key. But a light dusting of this on the apples of the cheeks adds a flirty glow to the face.
To complete the look—a feminine, modern bold purple—Intense Nail Lacquer in Passione.
"With Italian Summertime, we wanted to capture a major moment in a woman's life, a moment of fantasy and dreams, which is so ineffable, so intimate, and, simultaneously, redefine Domenico's and Stefano's passion about everything Sicilian, an attitude that's quite abstract yet very specific, very personal," says Pat McGrath, "This involved two very different concepts, a complete duality – which is, of course, my favorite challenge. So it was quite a lot of fun, since the palette is so brilliant, so succinct, with the summery soft pale tones against the vivid highlights. The look was all about and emphasis on the eyes – dramatic and deep and sexy – against glowing luminous summer skin. Very simple, yet utterly sophisticated and sensual – extremely classic Dolce & Gabbana in the most modern sense."

Tapping into UTelco business opportunities
The ongoing worldwide deployment of smart grid communications technology is creating unprecedented business opportunities for utilities looking to enter the telecom market — as long as they are able to match their assets with favorable regulatory and competitive factors. Due diligence requires engaging with experts to help generate and justify the business case and understand the operational requirements. Once that is completed and a utility forges ahead, the results can be impressive.

Quick Index Board Index Home FAQ Site Map
I think this is a case...
Written by Tori Marie
(9/16/2010 2:34 p.m.)
in consequence of the missive, I have to add, penned by Angela L
...of Edmund wearing his rose-colored glasses. He does say: "...when you are her only companion, you must be important to her." and "...living with your aunt, you will necessarily be brought forward as you ought to be. Here there are too many whom you can hide behind; but with her you will be forced to speak for yourself." So Edmund, IMO, thinks Aunt Norris is suddenly going to elevate Fanny to the status of valued companion. It's actually ironic that he thinks this of her, because she--as we know--doesn't actually want Fanny at all. But I think Edmund is a little too disposed to see the good side of people so he imagines that Mrs. Norris is inviting Fanny--though she isn't inviting her at all--to become a greater and more valued part of her life. Also, he's looking at Fanny with those rosy glasses too, because he's thinking that a change in situation will change her shy nature. I feel like shaking my head at him in disgust for this, but I think that's where his ideas are coming from. |

Decatur girls softball playoff vs Liberty hill
Posted on 06. May, 2010 by Joe Duty in Decatur Lady Eagles, Softball, Uncategorized
By Richard Greene
The Liberty Hill Lady Panthers provided a rude welcome to the playoffs for the Decatur Lady Eagles Thursday night.
Liberty Hill pounded out six hits for five first-inning runs to set the tone for a 15-5 victory in six innings to take a 1-0 lead in the Class 3A Region I area round series at Waco ISD Sport Complex.
"They came out and jumped on us early," said Decatur coach Neal Hall. "They hit the ball where we weren't. We came back a little, but they kept hitting. We'll have to find some way to rebound."
Decatur will get its chance to tie the series at 6 p.m. Friday in Waco. If necessary, game three will follow.
"We're pretty disappointed, but I'm sure we got it tomorrow," said Decatur pitcher Megan Dittrich. "We weren't prepared. We came out overconfident. Now, we know what they are like."
Dittrich will need to find a way to slow the Liberty Hill offense, which pounded out 22 hits in scoring its 15 runs.
"This team hits," said Liberty Hill coach Charice Hankins. "Tonight was a good night offensively. I was real happy with the offense. We were aggressive."
Four of Liberty Hill's hits did not leave the infield. Several more landed just in front of Decatur outfielders.
"A lot of their hits were weak bloopers," said Dittrich, who struck out five and walked one. "They had one hard hit. We just didn't adjust."
After piling up six hits in the first, Liberty Hill added four in the second to score another two runs.
The Lady Panthers put the game away with a seven-run fourth inning. Kourtney Bevers provided the big blast, driving the ball to the left-center field fence to plate three runs. Bevers went 3-for-4 with five RBIs.
Liberty Hill scored three more in the inning after Bevers' three-run double. Bailey Browder brought in two with a triple to right field.
Decatur had few answers offensively for Bevers, who limited the Lady Eagles to two hits.
"We've got to hit the ball," Hall said. "That's been our Achilles heel. When we don't hit the ball. We don't play well."
The Lady Eagles turned an infield hit by Chelsea Patterson and a walk to Dittrich into two runs in the first inning. Jazmine Lujan brought in Patterson on a sacrifice fly to right field. Dittrich scored on a wild pitch.
Decatur scored three more runs in the fifth inning taking advantage of three Liberty Hill errors and a Nicole Thele RBI-single.
Thele came into the game to play right field in the fourth inning when third baseman Leia Andriotto injured her shoulder diving to stop the ball.
Andriotto was one of three Decatur players injured in the game. First baseman Vicky Mayo took a ball in the eye. Danae Schertz hurt her elbow diving back into first base. Of the three, only Mayo was able to finish the game.

Diversity Specialist Advisor
LaDonna Greene-Brock
Motivational and Inspirational Speaker, Direct Selling Leader
In 1995 LaDonna Brock was left paralyzed from the waist down by a self-inflicted, accidental gunshot wound, but it certainly has not paralyzed her tenacious love for life. For the past 15 years she has been speaking in high schools and middle schools, churches and to various civic groups about trauma prevention through a national program called Think First – Use Your Mind To Protect Your Body.
LaDonna has also had a direct sales business and been a leader in Celebrating Home for the past 12 years. Although she expected to do every party in her home, which was accessible, she has instead gone wherever her hostesses invited her, including to homes in other states. She's never had the attitude of being paralyzed; never looked at the situations as obstacles, but instead as opportunities; never had an 'I can't' or 'I quit' attitude; never thought she could do any less than what she put her mind – and heart – to do.
Her heart is in making a difference. Whether forever changing the life of a child by helping them realize the power in their choices – be it day to day - buckle up or wear your helmet - or planning for their future with career or college decisions; or helping a young mother realize there is a way for her to help with the family income and still be a stay at home mom; or help the retired senior realize there is a way to have a little additional income in ways that go beyond the door greeter job; or helping the single (or married) mom that's working three jobs already, just barely making ends meet, realize there is a way to make that much and more by working far less hours; or helping that wife that would like to contribute on those expensive items – like new carpet, a lawnmower, the second car, the kid's college fund, or the basic needs in an ever changing economy; or the everyday person, man or woman, that enjoys helping other people get what they want, helping them decorate their world and get some extra cash in the process…they all matter to the person whom she's able to connect with, and they are all situations in which she makes a difference!
From the beginning of her speaking all those years ago, to the privilege of being Ms Wheelchair Kentucky in 2001, to the impact of empowering your team or organization, LaDonna's passion is following God's plan for her life and touching lives at every opportunity! Her positive outlook and attitude are contagious and inspiring!

Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord.
Courageous patience
7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord. Consider the farmer who waits patiently for the coming of rain in the fall and spring, looking forward to the precious fruit of the earth. 8 You also must wait patiently, strengthening your resolve, because the coming of the Lord is near. 9 Don't complain about each other, brothers and sisters, so that you won't be judged. Look! The judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as an example of patient resolve and steadfastness.

Unbinding the Gospel...Second Edition!
After thousands of churches have been transformed by the first edition of Unbinding the Gospel, we've improved it by adding a 40-day prayer journal!
Unbingding the Gospel is a book for church groups to study. Its a book for pastors who want the truth about the state of our churches. Reese presents a clear-spoken, hopeful vision for a future and gives us a way to get there without gimmicky formulas, but hand in hand with God
Readers describe Unbinding the Gospel as "a powerpack," "witty," "realistic and hopeful," "humble and genuinely spiritual," "It's so fun and easy to read, but I've been thinking about these ideas all week!" Unbinding the Gospel is based on a four-year research project on superb evangelism. Martha Grace Reese, author, pastor, and lawyer, interviewed more than 1,000 people in some of the most successful evangelistic congregations in the country.
