"For a Greater Loyola." THE MAROON ESTABLISHED 1923 FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1998 VOL. 77 NO. 1 Loyola University New Orleans Knoth picks Eiseman for Knipfing's job By NEAL FALGOUST and ELIZABETH STUART Staff writers Jim Eiseman, associate communications professor, has replaced Vincent Knipfing as vice president for Student Affairs, a move that has raised questions about the advantages of placing a professor in administration. "I think I can have some impact; I think I have vision," Eiseman said. "As a faculty member, I understand a little bit about what the students want and need because I've been in the classroom for almost 20 years, three of them here." Eiseman said his experience in the field of communications will help him in his new position. "That's an important issue, to communicate between and among all the various publics that are involved," he said. But Knipfing questioned Knoth's appointment of Eiseman in a written statement issued at the request for comment by The Maroon. Eiseman would have been up for tenure this year, but he plans to postpone it until the end of his two-year term as vice president for Student Affairs. According to the Loyola Faculty ; Handbook, faculty members seeking 1 tenure must meet the qualifications including "educational background, performance as a teacher, research, publication, and contributions to students, department or college, the University, the profession and community at large." Professors can be turned down for tenure, but a tenured professor cannot be ; fired except for cause, according to the Faculty Handbook. The Rev. Bernard Knoth, S.J., i university president, said he picked i Eiseman for the position earlier this summer because of his experience with the students and with the division of : Student Affairs, and because of the fresh insights he will bring to the job. "I wanted to bring in some fresh eyes j and fresh ears," Knoth said. He said it was important for the person filling the position to have the set term because of the upcoming renovations to the residence halls. Knoth said the plans INSIDE Knipfing responds to appointment ol James Eiseman as vice president for Student Affairs. See Page 3 Retirement plan lowers salary costs. See Page 3 HURRI-CAME AND WENT Earl scares campus, provides a day of fun By JOE DANBORN and PIERCE PRESLEY Staff writers The on-again, off-again antics of tropical storm/hurricane Earl silenced the boisterous beginnings of the fall semester in their tracks. Earl gained and lost strength, changed course and generally defied the efforts of forecasters to predict its actions. The Underground was going to have a hurricane party, but Earl caused hurricane and tropical storm warnings that convinced provost David Danahar and vice president for Student Affairs Jim Eiseman to cancel Wednesday's classes late Tuesday night. "It's a very precise process we followed," Eiseman said. "We were prepared this time. And we will be prepared next time." Students found different ways to spend the unexpected holiday. Some tried to get every kind of entertainment into their vacation. "I waited it out at Waldo's, then The Boot, then Igor's 'til 8:30 in the morning," said Steve Kindrick, English senior. "When 1 saw the sun, I figured we were okay." The balmy afternoon drew Kindrick and plenty of others outside to throw a Frisbee in the Peace Quad, go for a jog or otherwise enjoy the influence Earl had on the weather. "I went home and ate Taco Bell, then came here (the Residential Quad) to play some whiffle ball," Kindrick said. STAFF PHOTO BY SARAH BARNETT Residents at the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity house on Freret Street display a banner welcoming hurricane Earl. The threat of heavy rain and strong winds from the hurricane prompted Loyola administrators to cancel classes Wednesday, but the storm changed paths and provided the New Orleans area with partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies for the afternoon. Knoth outlines plans for fall semester in convocation By ELIZABETH STUART News Editor The increasing number of transfer students will help to offset the lower number of new freshmen, the Rev. Bernard Knoth, S J., university president, said at his convocation. On Aug. 25, Knoth updated the faculty and staff on the deficit in the university's operating budget, the voluntary severance plan and campus construction. Because the number of freshmen, 687, is lower than the more than 700 students expected, the University Board of Trustees approved drawing money out of the university's $230 million endowment to cover the loss. "This is a pattern that flies in the face of the university's long-term good fiscal health and one which the trustees will not continue to countenance," Knoth said. As of Aug. 25, the number of freshmen and transfer undergraduate students totaled 849. This number is 21 more than the number was at this time The Rev. Bernard Knoth, S.J., university president, speaks to the faculty and staff at his convocation. STAFF PHOTO BY PIERCE PRESLEY Uptown sex crimes lead to awareness By SARAH SPARKS Online Editor Much about him is average: a 20- something black man of medium complexion and build. His hands are rough, leathery, and his voice has a calm, melodious quality that one woman has called almost soothing. On four muggy, pre-dawn summer mornings, he has slipped through unlocked doors or windows in four Uptown residents' homes, careful to note absent roommates, cautious not to leave any physical traces of his passing. Inside, he has assaulted the women in their beds, thrusting objects into some victims' vaginas and forcing another to perform oral sex on him, according to police. "It's not a sex thing with him; it's a control thing," Captain Louis Dabdoub 111 said. "Some of the language he uses, the things he says — he's a sick puppy." Dabdoub, commander of the second district of the New Orleans Police Department, admitted that the assailant might escalate the violence in future attacks but doesn't think he will get the chance. "We're that close. The person knows we're that close," Dabdoub said. "One of the problems we're facing is that he's been coy enough not to let himself be seen and not to leave physical evidence." Police officials did not make a formal announcement until Aug. 14, two weeks after residents resorted to posting homemade warning notices, and over two months after the attacks began. Dabdoub said some information has been withheld to avoid copycat crimes and false leads. When news of the attacks came out, some residents were confused about which were the work of the serial sexual assailant The attacker targeted college-age, white women in the area bordered by Broadway, Carrollton Avenue and St. Charles Avenue, and Dabdoub said he repeatedly asked See EISMAN, Pg. 3 | See EARL, Pg. 4 See UPTOWN, Pg. 4 See SPEECH, Pg. 4 Hypnotist mesmerizes Newcomers drive Tattoos getting under students on and off stage. soccer team defense. some students' skin.

Ted, you apparently don't read the sport's threads that crop up here on occasion - the best usually being the SEC vs the WORLD. But it's fairly common to express oneself in that manner on those threads. They are actually funny , do you know what funny is?
Turning "smiling" into "scorning" is something only the legal types such as yourself could dream up.

You may have seen the Fox Theatre Detroit in the latest Chrysler commercial during the Super Bowl featuring Eiminem and the Chrysler 200. But the Fox Theatre has been around for years. The Detroit Fox is one of five spectacular Fox Theatres built in the late 1920s by film pioneer William Fox. (The others were the Fox Theatres in Brooklyn, Atlanta, St. Louis, and San Francisco.) It was designed by architect C. Howard Crane with a lavish interior featuring a blend of Burmese, Chinese, Indian and Persian motifs. There are three levels of seating, the Main Floor above the orchestra pit, the Mezzanine, and the Gallery (balcony). The exterior of the attached 10-story office building features a facade with Asian motifs which, when illuminated at night, can be seen for several blocks. The Fox Theatre in St. Louis, Missouri is (on the interior) its architectural "near" twin with about 500 fewer seats. The Detroit Fox is part of the Fox Building, while the St. Louis Fox is a stand-alone theatre. The architectural plaster molds of the slightly older (1928) Detroit Fox were re-used on the later (1929) St. Louis Fox.

Congrats to Sara & Scott!
This past Sunday, July 17th, one of GiftTree's own got married in a beautiful local park in Battle Ground! Our lovely customer service rep Sara Bouchard (now Marlo) made a stunning bride, and despite the fact that it was one of the wettest July days on record, she made this seemingly gloomy day absolutely perfect. It was a beautiful ceremony, and the downpour didn't stop the two young love birds from saying their "I do's". Congratulations Sara and Scott!! We wish you both lots of love, happiness and blessings on your new journey together.

Applying for a visa
This page explains how you can apply for a visa to come to the UK.
First, you should read our web pages for your chosen immigration category, in the Visas and immigration section. These pages explain the requirements for the category, and the documents you should provide with your application. They also contain the application form that you should use.
If you do not know which immigration category is suitable for you, use our Do you need a visa? questionnaire.
You should try to make your visa application well before your intended travel date.
You can use our country finder to find information about the visa application process in your country.
Application form
In most countries, you can apply for your visa online using our Visa4UK system. In some countries, you must complete the form by hand on a printed application form. For more information about using Visa4UK, see the Online applications section.
Our visa application forms are available only in English, and must be completed in English. If you do not understand English, you will need to find someone who can speak English to help you complete the form. You can provide your supporting documents in local language, but they must be accompanied by a summary in English. You might need to provide certified translations for some documents.
You must apply for and obtain your own visa. Somebody else cannot apply for your visa on your behalf, but they can complete your application form for you. However, you must sign the application form personally to show that the information given is true and accurate.
Visa application centre
You will also need to attend one of our visa application centres in person.
Most applicants must enrol their fingerprints and facial image (known as 'biometric information') at the visa application centre. This is a quick and clean process. In some countries, you must also show us that you have been screened for tuberculosis. See below for more information.
What happens next?
If your application is successful, you should read the Information for visa holders page.
If our visa officer cannot make an immediate decision on your application, we might ask you to attend an interview. We aim to do this within 15 working days from the date when the visa officer assesses your application.
We will refuse your visa if we find that you have given false or misleading information, or failed to give important relevant information. You could be banned from applying for a visa for 10 years.
If your application is refused, you might be able to:
- appeal against our decision; or
- request an administrative review, if you applied under the points-based system
More information
Who is exempt from enrolling their biometric information?
The following people do not need to enrol their biometric information as part of their application:
- diplomats appointed to a mission in the UK or travelling through the UK to a country where they are accredited;
- foreign government ministers and officials in their delegation travelling to the UK on their government's official business;
- United Nations (UN) officials holding UN travel documents who are travelling on official UN business;
- children under 5 years old;
- people applying for a certificate of entitlement to right of abode in the UK;
- people applying for visas for other Commonwealth countries and British overseas territories;
- certain internationally recognised organisations on official business;
- exempt members of the Commonwealth Forces going on a posting or training in the United Kingdom;
- dependents of exempt members of the Commonwealth Forces who are going on a posting only. (If the main applicant is attending a course in the UK, the dependents will need to submit their biometric data).
Do you need to enrol your biometric information each time you apply for a visa?
Yes. Every time you apply for a visa, you must come to one of our visa application centres so that we can scan your fingerprints and photograph your face. If you are a regular traveller to the UK, we recommend that you consider applying for a longer-term visa.
Do your children need to enrol their biometric information?
Children aged 5 years and over must enrol their biometric information. If they are aged between 5 and 16 years, they must be accompanied by an adult. This adult cannot be a member of our staff. We cannot enrol biometric information from unaccompanied children under 16 years old.
Children under 5 years old must submit their visa application in the normal way, but they do not need to enrol their biometric information.
How long will the UK Border Agency keep your biometric information?
We will keep your biometric information for 10 years from the date when we last scanned your fingerprints and photographed your face. After 10 years, the information will be destroyed.
Who will have access to your biometric information?
Your biometric information will be stored on a database in the UK and held strictly in accordance with UK legislation, including the Data Protection Act 1998. Unauthorised people will not be able to access your biometric information, and it will not be used inappropriately.
Information provided by UK visa applicants may be disclosed to foreign governments, for the purpose of helping them and the UK Border Agency to perform their functions.
Do you need to be screened for tuberculosis (TB)?
If you are a resident of one of the following countries, and you want to come to the UK for longer than 6 months, you must obtain a certificate confirming that you are free from tuberculosis before you apply for a visa:

The only exceptions are children under 11 years old, diplomats and their families (but not other members of diplomats' households, such as domestic staff), returning residents, and holders of certificates of entitlement.
TB is common in these countries. It is an airborne infectious disease, which can be spread by close contact with other people. The UK wants to encourage greater awareness and treatment of TB in the countries in which we test, as well as protecting people in the UK. Testing before you travel also ensures that our procedures when you arrive in the UK will be much quicker.
Why do we only screen migrants for TB if they are coming to the UK for more than 6 months?
To catch infectious TB, people must generally be in prolonged contact with someone who has the disease.
People who are coming to the UK for more than 6 months present greater risks to public health than short-term visitors, and is is not practical to screen all short-term visitors for TB.
How will you be screened for TB?
You should contact the International Organisation for Migration (IOM), which will arrange for you to have a chest X-ray at an accredited clinic or hospital. If the X-ray shows signs of infection, the clinic will carry out other tests to find out whether you have infectious TB. This testing may require you to return on 3 consecutive days.
(If you are pregnant, you will be offered a chest X-ray with abdominal shielding to protect your unborn child. If you decline, other tests may be carried out or delays may occur.)
You will need to pay a fee when you are screened.
You can use our country finder (see above) to find details of the clinics and fee in your country.
If the screening shows that you do not have TB, the IOM will give you a certificate. You must submit this certificate with your visa application form. The certificate is valid for a period of 6 months. If you do not submit the certificate, we will refuse your application.
If we grant you a visa, you must bring your certificate in your hand luggage when you come to the UK. If you do not, you may be delayed when you arrive here. We also advise that you bring your chest X-ray, in case you need to see a doctor in the UK.
If you do have TB, you will not be able to apply for a visa until you have been cured. The IOM will give you advice and tell you how to get treatment. A full course of treatment usually takes 6 months. After you have been cured you must pay to be screened again - if this shows that you are free of infectious TB, the IOM will give you a certificate and you can apply for your visa.
You can read the UK tuberculosis technical instructions on the Home Office website.
If you have TB and need to come to the UK urgently
If you have an urgent need to travel here for compassionate reasons, you will need to give us full details of the reasons. We will take these into consideration when we decide whether to give you a visa.
You are likely to have an urgent and compassionate reason for travel if you have a close family member in the UK who is seriously ill, or your travel to the UK cannot be delayed for exceptional reasons.
If we do allow you to come to the UK, we will expect you to begin treatment for TB when you arrive here.

Overlord: Dark Legend will be a "hardcore" Wii title
Wii owners who fancy the thought of ordering minions to set fire to things, slaughter sheep and cause evil mayhem wherever they go are going to be in luck when Overlord: Dark Legend arrives this June: it's for the core, apparently.
Over the weekend at Comic Con, MTV Multiplayer spoke with Codematers' brand manager Dan Robinson, who said that the Wii exclusive would be more of a hardcore game for the console.
"A lot of Nintendo fans are after a game like this on Nintendo. I think they've seen enough big-headed sports games and mini game collections for the Wii," he said.
"Nintendo fanboys tend to be quite loyal to Nintendo, so the people who are playing Metroid Prime and Zelda and Mario, they're kind of after a game like this that does more for them than picking up a Wii and just doing that action [flicks hand side-to-side] all the time."
The casual crowd will not be left out of the equation either though, because according to Robinson consumers new to gaming will enjoy the interaction just as well:
"There are elements of it that are still fun [for casual players] and you can still get involved with it. But I think it's definitely more of a hardcore game than you've got on the Wii at the moment.
"The other thing that the Wii's done is opened a market for the people who perhaps weren't into gaming before. So people who were bit scared because [gaming] was a bit too technical and a bit too geeky have suddenly been brought in because of the Wii. And I think this gives us an opportunity to show them that the Wii can actually do games like this, and it actually works and it can make good fun. So there are two distinct groups there that we're going for."
Good for Nintendo fans. Bad for sheep.

Comic Con's gaming space up 50%
Organisers of this year's New York Comic Con have revealed that the allocated space for games at the show now takes up around 50 percent of the show floor.
"I am enormously pleased and gratified to see how much and how fast our videogame component has grown since last year," commented show manager Lance Fensterman.
"From the get go, one of our principal goals at New York Comic Con has been to build on our core interest, which is comics, by expanding outwards to include other interests.
"This is what defines us as a true pop culture event. We provide a wide range of stimulating activity which commands the attention of our many fans. I couldn't be happier that videogaming is now taking a leading role in all of this."
The New York Comic Con gets underway at the Jacob Javits Center on February 6 and lasts two days.
The titles on show include Prototype, Champions Online, The Godfather 2 and Afro Samurai.
Thanks, GI.

Ichiro has a far better arm.

Not close.
Added: Before 2011, lot's of people took Ichiro in a similar poll. Ichiro was closer rate wise back then, but the answer was still a resounding - Ricky. Not close. Throwing arm, OF play, and BA is not enough to overcome RH's massive superiority in other areas. Take a look at that era/park corrected OBP sometime... Holy Crap.

Sigma 30mm and 19mm lens tested at Photozone.
Image courtesy: Photozone
Photozone (Click here) posted the full Sigma 30mm lens review. And the reviewer quite likes the lens: "While we didn't formally test the bokeh this time it seems to be pretty good when looking at our sample images. Sigma's new linear AF motor is both speedy as well as silent. Combine all this with the extremely low price tag and it's obvious that you are getting lots of bangs for your bucks here!"
And they also tested the 19mm Sigma (Click here to read the review): "The Sigma AF 19mm f/2.8 EX DN has certainly an edge over its obvious competitor – the Sony E 16mm f/2.8 – so if you are feeling an itch for compact primes it may be a reason to go for it. Price/performance-wise it is just an average offering though."
The lens is now incredibly cheap (99 Dollars or Euro) as a double kit at BHphoto (Click here) as single lens ->the 19mm is available here at Uniquephoto and the 30mm lens is also at Uniquephoto. In Europe at Technikdirekt or on eBay (via Slidoo).
I agree. Sigma's built-in OSS is much better too.
Neither of these lenses feature image stabilization do, they?
You're the biggest Sony fan I've seen. Such dedication.
If I am the biggest fan then Sony is in trouble because only 1 of my top 5 lenses is a Sony.
Voigtlander Nokton 35/1.4
Rokinon 8/2.8 fisheye
Contax G 90/2.8
Canon FDn 50/1.4
And my Zeiss 24.
I have the SEL 50/1.8 and 55-210 and have no desire to buy any other Sony Emount lens available. I want a FF camera but the A99′s price and low light performance compared to peers turned me off. I tried the RX1 and the AF disappointed me. So biggest Sony fan seems erroneous.I hated the manual focus ring on the Sigma 30. It was not smooth at all even when using DMF; it was jerky and would stick. That was enough for me to send it back. I also didn't like the CA and f/2.8 wasn't fast enough for shooting in the low light of my house.
The Sigma 30 is certainly sharper than most Sony lenses (I find the SEL 50 sharper across the frame at f/4, for example), but the Sigma lenses aren't better overall. Sharpness is just one of many ways to evaluate a lens. I ended up sending back my Sigma 30 because of a series of factors unrelated to sharpness.
What were these factors?
is it just me or is it really really really hard to get 4 or 5 star on the optical quality in photozone…
i thought my 19mm was very very sharp.. except for those small annoying little CA here and there.-
It seems that the 19 mm is mainly addressed to the m 4/3 users. I saw in a French review the comparison images taken with this lens. Its performance with E-PL5 was much better than 6N. I think that for the m 4/3 system it's a perfect walk around lens ( 38 mm equivalent, and in body stabilisation).
Like Sean said, sharpness (made of contrast and resolution) is only one part of a good lens, and the Sigma 19mm lens certainly is not perfect when looking at the abberrations.
Accoridng to this review and summary, there is no difference in the original 30 and 19 than from the new ones just released other than the smooth versus ribbed exterior…Why would I wait or spend more for the new version if only interested in looks?
Was going to order these today from technikdirekt, but they dont ship to Greece…pretty much to every other EU country except Greece. I wonder why they chose to skip them from their shipping services?
19 has bad sides and very bad corners on Sony, but I goess on m43 it is good across the frame.
For $99, I can't complain. I should get my 30mm in the mail today or tomorrow. Like all new Sigma lenses, it has great center resolution, which is perfect for people pictures. I'm glad Sigma focuses on getting super sharp centers right from wide open. sharp corners are for pixel peepers and generally not needed

- I figured since the Knicks expended almost no energy last night they'd have plenty for the Hawks game and come out on fire.
- Felton and Shumpert did come out on fire, scoring the Knicks first 10 or so points before Melo and Smith decided to continue last nights futility by jacking up terrible shots and missing most of them. Melo also started the game in the mode (which we've seen way too often) where he stops and has a lengthy conversation with the ref as to why he didn't get a foul call while the opposing team keeps playing and gets an open layup. Fortunately that only lasted for the 1st quarter and they both got hot the rest of the game.
- Melo shot 9-12 from 3-point range, tying the franchise record for 3′s (Starks, Sprewell, Sprewell again and yes Toney Douglas) before the Hawks finally caught on in the 4th and refused to let him even take a 3.
- We got on Kurt Thomas case for being a -8 in 2 minutes the other day, well he was +8 in 4 minutes tonight so we've come full circle.
- Ronnie Brewer doubled his minutes total from last game, going from 2.5 seconds to 4.9 seconds tonight. The opposing team was scoreless during Brewers time on the court yet again.
- Fast point guards must salivate when they see the Knicks come up on their schedule. I can't remember the last time a quick point guard, or even a moderately quick one didn't tear the Knicks a new one.
- Speaking of which, @imadoggarcia and I have been trying to guess which opposing player will have their best game of the season against the Knicks, a.k.a. the Knick Effect. He chose Teague (a fast point guard) and I chose Stevenson (a random bench guy who hasn't done much all season, a perfect candidate). Teague scored 27, his second highest scoring game of the season and Stevenson had 15, tying his highest game of the season.
- Amare had 18 and 8 and once again didn't look terrible on defense. If this keeps up this raises the bar for what the Knicks can do this season.
- Kidd left after 5 minutes to nurse a sore back in the locker room and Chandler was in obvious discomfort in the 4th with a tweaked neck. I can't express how much I hope both of these are very minor injures as it would be heartbreaking to get this close to a full roster only to have 2 guys go down almost immediately.
- Tough ending for Josh Smith. Last 4 plays were a backcourt violation, a turnover, a foul on Amare (which wasn't a foul at all but made up for the completely ridiculous technical on Anthony that almost decided the game) and a missed wide open 3 that would have won the game. Not very smoove.

Minister finds out how technology can help communities at South Yorkshire Centre
Organisations could do more for their communities by making better use of free technology, Minister for Civil Society, Nick Hurd said today as he visited a UK online centre in South Yorkshire. He was there to mark the development of a new website to help community workers use more free digital tools to make their lives easier.
The visit was hosted by the Lifewise Centre in Rotherham, a multi-agency purpose-built facility that provides education, prevention, intervention and rehabilitation to communities across South Yorkshire. It was attended by a number of Community Leaders from across England, all keen to share their views on the power of technology to help communities achieve more.
The event was organised to announce the development of a new website by Online Centres Foundation, "the Big Community Hub", that will revolutionise the way community organisations work, through the use of digital tools.
The Lifewise Centre is one organisation that is certainly using technology to improve the lives of residents. As part of their Community Hub programme, led by Online Centres Foundation, the organisation is using technology to communicate more broadly about tackling gun and knife crime, as well as supporting literacy and reading issues in school using Kindles and tablet-based technology.
Minister for Civil Society, Nick Hurd said: "Visiting the Lifewise Centre, and having the opportunity to talk to such an inspiring group of community leaders reiterated just how valuable technology can be to the voluntary and community sector, not only in changing the lives of people living in communities, but also by allowing organisations who are often both time and cash-poor to do more for less using online tools. I'm looking forward to seeing the Big Community Hub website develop further, and believe it will be a vital tool for the sector as a whole."
Helen Milner, Chief Executive of Online Centres Foundation says: "I'm passionate about the benefits technology can bring, to communities, individuals and organisations. Bringing this group of committed and inspirational community leaders together to share their views on what technology can do for them and their communities was really useful, and it was great that Nick Hurd could see first hand just how much great work is going on in communities putting technology at their heart.
Annika Small, CEO of Nominet Trust who have funded the development of the Big Community Hub. She says "At Nominet Trust, we're great believers in the power that the internet can have in revolutionising the ways in which people work, interact and achieve in their communities, which is why we're funding the development of the Big Community Hub. I think the website will act as a much needed resource, enabling community organisations to work smarter, and essentially do more, in their areas."
The Big Community Hub website will be launched later this year, and will be piloted in Beta version in advance of its full launch.
Please see this link to a video featuring community leaders from around the UK discussing the challenges they face and how this unique website will help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BF2bWp8fFF4

Rating: 3.5 stars
There is so much that is great about the French film I've Loved You So Long, I'm willing to overlook its flaws.
As the film begins, Lea (Elsa Zylberstein) is picking up her older sister Juliette (Kirsten Scott Thomas) from the airport. But there's something stilted and tense about this reunion. Eventually, we find out that Juliette has just been released from prison (later, we find out what she was in for, but I won't reveal it here) and that the sisters haven't seen each other in 15 years.
These opening scenes are played beautifully. Lea tries not to smother, tries to avoid the wrong words, while Juliette stares out the window in a kind of mournful daze. She's become hardened by jail, by the circumstances of her life. What remains unspoken between the two sisters—did Juliette really commit the crime she is accused of? and why did Lea wait so long to come visit Juliette in jail?—is more significant than what is said.
Once they get to Lea's bourgeois-chic Parisian home (Lea is a university professor), Juliette meets Lea's disapproving husband, her mute...

All of your above quotes are based on your opinion--as shallow and generalized as it is.Originally posted by Loud Medicine
I don't understand it: Why is anybody listening to stuff thats 200 years old, or older? I mean it has nothing to do with the world of today, it has been heard over and over.
Baroque music - you can't listen to it longer than 5 minutes, after that you fall asleep (or do the dishes or something like that)
Classical music - Tatatataaaaa. Heard a billion zillion times. Like "Yesterday"
Romantic music. Sounds like a generic Hollywood soundtrack. Maybe it was genuine 150 years ago, but today?
Take Bach's "Art of the Fugue" for example. It's the same stuff over and over, I bet the people who say it's one of their favourite works can't tell which fugue is which.
So I guess it's all for the snobs to show their impressive education.
You ever heard of the classical plays from ancient Greece? They are still being performed today. And you want to know why? Because the theme of those plays, such as Oedipus, still apply to our contemporary society.
So guess what? The music that you so obviously hate is enjoyed by people who believe that kind of music can still be enjoyed and appreciated by people who have an open mind.

Dean, Lady Bruins post up Lady Devils
PERU — St. Bede and Spring Valley Hall's ladies met Saturday night in a non-conference matchup. The Lady Bruins worked their game plan early and often, feeding senior center Mo Dean the ball down in the paint and letting her lay it in the hoop. In the end, St. Bede won 66-24 and Dean had garnered a game leading 20 points.
Asked about his plan to use the post, Lady Bruins coach Tom McGunnigal said, "We felt we had an advantage in there. I thought they'd come in with a little bit of a 2-3 zone, and I told the girls you can't just stand out on the perimeter and bomb all night figuring you were going to do something good. We stayed with our offense. Moved (and) dribble penetrated with the ball. We especially stuck with our defense and tried to get some points off of that. We had nice bounce and good distribution."
St. Bede's second highest scorer was Whitley Funfsinn with 16 points. The Lady Bruins' Raley Mauck, Haley Dzierzynski and Lydia Stariha assisted the effort with 10 points each.

Staff writer
TENINO -- Sometimes, slow starts and sloppiness are inevitable. But when youre atop the 1A Southwest Washington Evergreen Division boys basketball standings and as red hot as the Tenino Beavers are, finding ways to blast through them comes a little easier.
Although the Beavers had just a slim six-point lead after two quarters of action in their Highway 507 rivalry game with Rainier Tuesday night, their size advantage in the paint and hot shooting from beyond the arc helped Tenino pull away for a 58-41 win over the Mountaineers to end the first half of league play a perfect 6-0.
Teninos win came days after a big road victory at Forks last Friday against a previously-undefeated Spartans team with the leagues reigning MVP, Braden Decker. Senior Ben Peterson hit a free throw with a half-second left in the game to give Tenino the 49-48 win.
In addition to their six-game winning streak, the Beavers (10-3 overall) have won eight of their past nine games and scoring defense is a big reason for their first place in the standings, allowing just 40.6 points all of their wins in league play.
Our chemistry is at an all-time high right now, said senior forward Justin Conklin, who had 12 points, including 2 of 4 from 3-point range.
Nihls Peterson, the only freshman on the roster, led Tenino with 13 points.
When Tenino wasnt hitting its 3-point shots (7-of-14), the majority of the points came inside the paint. The team had a significant size advantage over a smaller and younger Mountaineers (1-12 overall, 1-5 1A SWW) that started three players 5-foot-8 or smaller compared to four of Teninos starters 6-1 or taller.
We havent been shooting a lot of 3s this year, as many as we have been in the past, Tenino coach Rod Enos said. Our guards at 6-1, 6-2, can also go down there and post up. Justin (Conklin) does a nice job in the past and fight for position.
With a 27-21 lead at halftime, Teninos full-court pressure, man-to-man defense turned up its intensity, allowing just two third-quarter field goals on Rainier and outscoring the visitors 18-6 to take a 45-27 lead into the fourth quarter. Just minutes into the fourth, the lead grew to 51-28 following guard Dustin Hammonds second 3-pointer of the game
The Beavers win streak continues into Fridays game at home against Rochester, and Enos hopes to have his point guard and leading scorer -- senior Devante Harris -- back by then. Harris, who surpassed the 1,000-point mark in his career earlier this season. sprained his ankle during practice Monday and did not play Tuesday, forcing a small shuffle in the starting lineup. Senior Mac Shaw, normally the first player off the bench, earned the starting nod against his former team, which also featured his younger brother, Trevor, a sophomore.
Zack Froembling led Rainier with a game-high 14 points and Kyle Bell had 13.

DMCC & Dirt Bikes!
Flat out down the straight! Railing berms! Diving into deep ruts! Eating roost! Making that pass stick! Getting Air! Cursing woops! Sideways in the mud! Knee deep in swamp! Hanging out with people who enjoy the same thing!
To a dirt bike rider, these things are all part of the excitement and fun of going for a ride on race day. (or any other day out riding)
- Interested in dirt bikes and want to experience all this and more first hand?
- Want to get involved in one of the most exciting sports on the planet?
- Have kids who talk about nothing else?
Come on out and join the many people who just like to ride in the dirt. Age and gender are no barrier in the DMCC. We promote safe and considerate riding and are always looking for new members, or for volunteers who just want to help out during race days.
Check out the "Event Calendar" menu item or the "Next or Upcoming Event" notice on the home page (when Posted) for the next race. Come out, watch a race or two, have a chat with the committee or any of the other riders. Food and beverages are available. You won't regret it.
When visiting a race track for the first time, it can be a bit daunting. Please observe any signs, don't cross over taped off or fenced off areas and don't go onto the race track.

There is also the friendly social atmosphere which provides an excellent opportunity to tap into an exclusive pool of knowledge and experience on many aspects of bike set ups and tuning, riding and racing techniques and locations of various riding areas to practice on.
The DMCC doesn't have a track as such but endeavours to find various locations to race on and run enduro's, following consultation with the Department of Planning and Infrastructure, Land Administration. Lands Administration has asked that the venue's we use be left the way we found them and that no rubbish be left behind. Should you come out to ride on any of the tracks in the vicinity of DMCC race events please ensure that you remove all your rubbish.
DMCC is the oldest motor sports club in Darwin, going back to the 1940's. It has been associated with the Hidden Valley Tavern area since the late 1960's and held a lease on the area until the club surrendered in the early 1980' so the Hidden Valley Motor Sports Complex could be created.

The Doolittle Raid, April 18, 1942, was the first air raid by the United States to strike the Japanese home island of Honshu during World War II. The mission was notable since it was the only time in U.S. Military history that United States Army Air Forces bombers (16 modified B-25B bombers) were launched from a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier on a combat mission. The raid demonstrated that the Japanese home islands were vulnerable to Allied air attack, and it provided an expedient means for U.S. retaliation for Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941.
The bombers were carried by the USS Hornet (CV-8) from Alameda, California to their launch point in the Pacific. At a distance of about 650 miles from Japan, the task force encountered a Japanese picket boat, which radioed an attack warning to Japan. Although the boat was destroyed by gunfire from the cruiser USS Nashville, Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle and Hornet skipper Captain Marc Mitscher decided to launch the B-25s immediately – ten hours earlier and 170 miles farther from Japan than planned.
The footage shows some of the men rescued from the picket boat (and I believe the boats destruction), although the shot of the Japanese men is overexposed. Most of the rest of our film shows the men preparing the aircraft for launch and launching. They launched their aircraft between 8:30 and 9:19 in the morning.
This reel doesn't contain any footage after the raid left the Hornet – there are a couple of still shots with possible bomb damage and maybe a picture of a crashed B-25 in China, and some footage of at least one of the raiders receiving a medal in China, but that's all we have.
Immediately after the raid, Lt. Col. Doolittle told his crew that he believed that the loss of all 16 aircraft, coupled with the relatively minor damage that had been inflicted on their targets had rendered the attack a failure, and that he expected a court martial on his return to the United States. Instead, the raid bolstered American morale to such an extent that Doolittle was awarded the Medal of Honor by President Franklin Roosevelt. He was also promoted two grades to Brigadier General, skipping the rank of colonel. He went on to command the 12th Air Force in North Africa, the 15th Air Force in the Mediterranean, and the 8th Air Force in England during the next three years.
About the Doolittle Raid footage:
This Doolittle raid footage was acquired from a collector by CowtownFilm.com. Part of it consists of a print of an Army Air Forces film (the date code on the film is 1946) and part of it (what I call the outtakes – some raw footage) consists of a copy of some footage from the National Archives ... the date code on that part of the footage is from the 1970's.

One account (possibly a volume from U.S. Naval Operations in WW2 by Samuel Eliot Morison) of this engagement, which also involved strafing aircraft from Enterprise, states Nashville expended over 900 rounds of 6 inch because the Japanese trawler made a poor target in the heavy seas.

Why does it cost so much to eat healthy?Posted Wednesday, December 12, 2012, at 1:53 PM
The American Psychological Association has recently suggested having a television in a child's bedroom can lead to childhood obesity. They have even gone so far as to suggest banning the allowance of having televisions in their rooms.
First of all, it's obvious they would never be able to actually ban having a television in a child's room. Are they going to do monthly raids on households to see if there is a television set in a bedroom? I highly doubt it. My nephew will be 2-years-old in April and he has to sleep with his television on because, like his mother, he finds the background noise soothing and he is terrified of the dark. I found this out the hard way because the breaker for his room got kicked the other night when I was watching him, and he was screaming. He is a toddler. He has never sat down to watch a movie, nor has he taken more than two minutes to stop running from end to end of our house. He never stops. I have a 6-year-old niece and 3-year-old nephew, neither of who will ever sit down and watch a movie. They are kids who love to run and play, and wear Aunt Brina and their parents out. There are so many blames placed on what is causing obesity, and it's frustrating that these organizations that are advocating healthy children aren't looking at the real problem. The cost of food. If it were up to my family, it would be lean meats, salad and vegetables or fruit every night, but on our budget it is completely unrealistic. Most of the time it's boxed meals, bagged sides and a bottled beverage. The cost of healthy foods is often double, if not triple, the cost of foods that end up stocking our kitchen shelves and refrigerator. Baked chicken is one of my favorite main dishes, but the chicken breast also ranks among the highest price of meat choices. So, often times we are stuck with $1 pizzas out of the frozen food section, or a box of Hamburger Helper. One of my favorite snacks for when I'm on the go between meetings are grapes, but the more than $3 per pound cost is pricey when you only have a couple dollars left out of your check after paying the electric bill. So, it's often knock-off brand of snack cakes that gets thrown in the cart for when we are busy and don't have a chance to fix a meal. A 2-liter of pop is half the price and twice the size of a bottle of 100 percent apple juice. Quantity is a big deal. When I'm on the go and stop at a convenience store, a 32-ounce soda is half the price of a decent sized bottle of water. These things add up quickly. I was always an overweight kid, but it wasn't due to lack of exercise. I played basketball for 10 years, and spent every warm, and often freezing, moment outside I could, playing with the neighborhood kids. It all comes back to what we could afford to put on the table, and that was often the cheapest selection we could find for that week. There will be kids who constantly want to sit at a gaming console or don't know what an imagination is, but I believe these are exceptions and not the rules.

Comments Showing comments in chronological order [Show most recent comments first] That sounds like a rather poor excuse for not eating healthy to me. It sounds like you just want to appease the kids by buying them sugary junk food and drinks. Canned or frozen fruits and vegetables are cheaper than the Little Debbies and pizza rolls I'm sure you are giving the kids. Water is still the cheapest and most healthy drink available. I wouldn't even let my kids have soda. Why would you give your kids something that can eat the paint off a car? I am so tired of people saying that eating healthy is too expensive. It's so ridiculous. -- Posted by Unabated on Sat, Dec 15, 2012, at 9:06 PM

I'm looking for some way to configure OSX to prevent it creating .apdisk files and .TemporaryItems folders on network shares.
These are created any time OSX accesses a shared folder on the network.
In searching, some possible solutions I've found include:
- Stop using the Application (Finder)
- Mark the share(s) as read-only
- Ignore them
- Use 3rd party software (such as BlueHarvest) to remove the files.
- Schedule a cron script to delete these files.
Unfortunately the first three options are not workable for me, and I'd rather not have to buy licences or schedule clean-ups on the file servers.
Is there a way to configure OSX not to create these in the first place?
(Finder is connecting via AFP to the network shares, for what it's worth)
