Goshen Schools interested in acquiring properties near Chamberlain Elementary
The board approved resolutions declaring an interest in acquiring nearby properties to the two schools with the eventual goal of adding to the school campuses.
There are three properties on North 5th Street by Chamberlain and one property by the green space at the corner of Madison and 10th streets by Goshen High School that the school corporation is interested in. The properties by Chamberlain would allow the school to expand its parking lot and reroute the school�s traffic routes to provide more safety for kids crossing streets, said Superintendent Diane Woodworth. Chamberlain�s parking lot is also shared with St. Mark�s Methodist Church, she noted.
�We�ve talked about this before, Chamberlain�s kind of landlocked otherwise,� Woodworth said during the meeting.
The board took the first step of formally expressing interest in the properties Monday night. Next, Goshen Community Schools will look at appraisals of the properties and find out if the landowners are interested in working with the school corporation.

For information: 800-692-4020
By Jenny Collins '05When adjunct theatre professor Brian Grandison, MFA, walks into his Intro to Theatre class, he encounters eager eyes of students seated in tidy, static rows.
"That drives me crazy," he says." My brain doesn't work this way." He calls out, "Fracture the room!" and turns his back for 10 seconds. Unsure of this first "assignment," the students quickly push the chairs into a circle."OK, that's fine. But when I say fracture, I mean fracture."
The fractured classroom isn't just an exercise, it's Grandison's philosophy on life and theatre. "Sometimes life operates this way. You can only see so much," he shared, referring to the disarray of desks.
Like most artists, Grandison learns—and teaches—theatre through life, not theory.
Having worked more than 20 years as an actor, director, writer and educator, he built his performing career primarily in Chicago, Los Angeles and the Twin Cities, where he's worked with several theaters, including the Guthrie Theater, Mixed Blood Theatre, Chanhassen Dinner Theatre and the Children's Theatre Company. As a playwright, he loves "fracturing stories and moving them around like a jigsaw puzzle."
In a way, the jigsaw metaphor reflects Grandison's life and faith journey. The son and grandson of preachers, Grandison grew up in the church and moved a few times before his parents divorced and he grew up in Missouri. He admits to falling away for awhile, but even then, while reaping success as an actor, "I'd go home and wash the dishes. I didn't go party. It wasn't the lifestyle I glommed on to."
Today he explains his faith through story, on and off the stage. "There's a lot of ways to walk," he tells people. "I've walked this path, and I've walked this path," gesturing as if pointing to two roads. "For me, it's easier with the light on." Finding a new pathSeveral years ago when Grandison saw doors closing on acting opportunities, he felt the Lord guiding him to write plays and teach. "As people of faith, you think you have arrived, then you realize you have to make another trip around the mountain."
A history buff, he has since found a niche writing historical screenplays, including one on the Tuskegee Airmen. In February, the History Theatre in St.Paul commissioned his most recent play, Adrift on the Mississippi, which told the story of the slaves who escaped from Missouri in the 1860s on a makeshift raft up the river and formed Pilgrim Baptist Church in Minneapolis. Ultimately a story of faith and freedom, it also had personal connections for Grandison, who grew up in the county next to the one the slaves left, and whose wedding and daughter's baptism were at Pilgrim.
Seeing this story that was eight years in the making come alive "was surreal," he said. "People are up on stage saying the lines that you wrote in the back of a coffee shop."
UNW theatre major Sarah Howell '11 was hired as assistant stage manager for Grandison's play. She said his experience helped her see things from a broader perspective. "Brian constantly reminded me that everyone in the cast and crew was there for a purpose."
Grandison also gets students to wrestle with difficult decisions they'll inevitably face as professionals, such as deciding if they'll work with material that has profanity, or act in a role that involves disrobing.
"What are you going to do? What are your boundaries?" he asks. "Let's have this conversation. It doesn't start when you graduate, it starts now." Uncomfortable at first, the discussions encourage them to engage their faith with real life.
"And what makes the arts wonderful is that we can disagree, and even vehemently," said Grandison, "and still walk out and walk in love with each other."
Sarah Howell '11 interned last summer under the Guthrie Theater's stage manager, who recommended her to the History Theatre in St. Paul, where she was selected to serve as assistant stage manager for Adrift on the Mississippi, the play written by Brian Grandison, adjunct theatre professor at UNW.
Howell, a theatre major from Princeton, Minn., who has since been hired by the History Theatre, says her primary role is to serve the cast and crew.
"The arts can be a very self-serving field. There are plenty of stage managers that serve in a 'technical' sense, but serving with a servant's heart like Jesus is very different.
"Having that servant's heart helps when egos are flaring up left and right. Instead of doing it for yourself and because it's your job, you do your job to show God's love to those around you.That's how life should be for all of us, whether we are in the arts or not."

The Singapore Maritime Gallery was officially opened today by Mr Lui Tuck Yew, Minister for Transport. Housed on the second storey of Marina South Pier, this modern and interactive gallery was developed by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) at a cost of $5 million.
Occupying a total floor space of approximately 1,000 square metres, the Gallery showcases the diversity and vibrancy of Singapore's maritime industry. The Gallery was developed with the support and assistance of key partners from the maritime industry. The official opening was attended by more than 100 guests from the maritime community.
Singapore has long been associated with the sea and maritime trade, with its strategic position at the crossroads of East-West seaborne trade routes. The Gallery tells the story of the growth of Maritime Singapore, from a small entrepot trading post almost two centuries ago, to a premier global hub port and a leading international maritime centre today.
"Given the importance of Maritime Singapore to our nation, the Singapore Maritime Gallery strives to not only narrate the Maritime Singapore story, but more importantly, to engage, inspire and create greater public awareness of Singapore's diverse and dynamic maritime industry and its many achievements," says Mr Lam Yi Young, Chief Executive of MPA.
The Gallery is designed to give visitors a fun, interactive and educational experience. Visitors will get to walk through 10 zones covering a wide range of topics, such as the evolution of Singapore's maritime industry, the importance of port and shipping in our everyday life and the different types of vessels that sail our seas. Visitors will also learn about how Singapore has established itself as a leading voice in the international maritime community, and know more about the dynamic maritime cluster in Singapore and the exciting career opportunities it offers.
Some of the highlights include a ship bridge simulator where visitors will be able to experience being a seafarer for a day and learn how to steer and berth a ship under various sea conditions, and a Vessel Traffic Information System console where visitors will learn how to handle challenging vessel traffic management operations. Another key exhibit is the giant ship model with touch screens and videos where visitors can learn about the main types of port and maritime services available in Singapore. In addition, there is a dedicated zone for young visitors, where children can enjoy activities such as digital cosplay and painting, an interactive water ripple projection, a lego play-wall, as well as an art and craft area. The Gallery also features a rooftop plaza and garden on the third storey, offering spectacular views of the pier and the sea, as well as a maritime-themed playground for families and children to enjoy.
The Singapore Maritime Gallery will open its doors to the public from 13 September 2012. The opening hours are from 9.00am to 5.30pm from Tuesdays to Sundays. The Gallery is closed on Mondays, unless it is a public holiday.

Over the summer I bought three round mirrors on clearance at Target for $3.24 each. They have been collecting dust while I was figuring out what to do with them--the deal was too good to pass up even though I did not have a plan.
Over the holidays, Xaver and I went to several thrift stores looking for good things to alter, stuff for our house, etc. It is silly that I was dropping off loads of stuff to get rid of in the back of the store and then going inside to buy more stuff but hey, it was an efficient visit to each thrift store!
In Salvation Army, Xaver spotted several tubs of silverware, each sorted by type, on sale for 5 for $1. Once we saw the knives, we knew they would be perfect for the mirror! I've seen mirrors like this created with plastic spoons but honestly they look like plastic spoons on the finished mirror and I wanted something a little more unique.
Here's how to make it:
Use epoxy or hot glue to adhere the flat part of the knife to the back of the mirror. I tried E6000 and it did not work so well.
Next, tape off the center of the mirror to prep for painting. I wove wire around four of the knives to make a "X" across the back of the frame to create hanger. Once the mirror is painted, the wire will not be noticeable from the front anymore.
I used Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic Paint & Primer in Aged Copper to paint the mirror--two coats is all it took! The paint has a glittery shimmer in it that I thought was really cool. It adhered really easily to the plastic and metal too--my new fave spray paint!
- Rust-Oleum Universal Metallic Paint & Primer in Aged Copper = $7.69
- Mirrors @ 2 x $3.24 = $6.48
- 50 knives from Salvation Army = $10
- Wire = $1.99
- Cardboard, tape, screwdriver, hot glue not figured into cost

Success and Life Rights by Henry David Thoreau
Henry David Thoreau wrote Walden. In that book he shared this inspiration: " If one advances confidently in the direction if his dreams and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unrecognized in common hours."
Mary Manin Morrissey during a recent presentation at First Unity of St. Petersburg reminded us of the importance of clearly defining our dreams. Life Rights is a dream that is starting to come true. Thoreau's freedom was compromised when he was jailed as a result of protesting the United States war with Mexico. This event had such a profound impact on him he wrote the famous essay "Civil Disobedience". In this essay Thoreau wrote "….the state is created for man whose power comes from the Divine and not the other way around." Thoreau delivered a powerful message on the importance of freedom in that essay.
I feel Thoreau would have written a little differently today. Respectful of the time, I am not judgmental of his choice of gender specific words. We all have to move past a specific word or phrase to the core intent. We are blessed when we truly acknowledge the Divine Love of God in all regardless of color, gender, sexual preferences…when we know Namaste within and move beyond using the word as friendly greeting.
There are many Life Rights violations, abuses of freedom. Our opportunity is right now. "Peace Begins Right Here Right Now" with each one of us when we allow the Consciousness of Divinity to emerge. This Divine Consciousness does not fuel the negative emotions surrounding negative events. Violations of Life Rights begin to be diffused with our strengthening consciousness that all life has the right to live their intentions in freedom and peace.
Henry David Thoreau stood for freedom and peace. I stand for freedom and peace. If this makes sense to you, please demonstrate your support of this belief by registering at www.LifeRights.com and sharing this message with others.
The video that follows is about Walden and David Henry Thoreau's essay Civil Disobedience. Please watch, listen closely and consider not only your belief but what you stand for.
Love and Blessings

Day Museum and Overlord Embroidery
About us
Portsmouth's D-Day Museum is Britain's only museum dedicated solely to covering all aspects of the D-Day landings in Normandy, France, on 6 June 1944. D-Day was a turning point in the Second World War, and a moment when the course of world events depended on the Allied troops taking part. Click here to find out more about what you can see at the museum. Below: the Overlord Embroidery is on display at the museum.

Community groups: the D-Day Museum wants to work with you!
The D-Day Museum has received a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund to support the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of D-Day in 2014. As part of this we will be working with community groups, helping them research their area's links with the 1944 D-Day Landings. We are looking for existing enthusiastic groups with an interest in their local history, based in Portsmouth or within 30 miles of the city including Fareham, Gosport, Havant and Waterlooville (or elsewhere within that distance, in Hampshire, the Isle of Wight or West Sussex). The project focuses on local connections rather than the broader, national and international story of D-Day. Many places in the region have local connections to D-Day, and each participating group will choose the topic(s) to study. For more information and to discuss your ideas, please contact Amy Radford, D-Day 70 Projects Officer. By phone: 023 9243 7812. By post: City Museum, Museum Road, Portsmouth PO1 2LJ. Or via the contact page of this website.

D-Day Museum receives grant from Heritage Lottery Fund
In June 2014 the D-Day Museum was awarded a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for activities connected to the 70th anniversary of the D-Day Landings in 2014. We will use the grant to work with community groups in the region and help them research the D-Day history of their area, to hold a community conference on D-Day in May 2014, conduct oral history interviews with veterans and eye-witnesses, and to publicise D-Day anniversary events in the region.

The 'Day + Youth' project will give young people like yourself, the opportunity to work with the D-Day Museum, its collections and to help shape future displays and activity programmes. Being part of the Youth Advisory Board will give you the freedom to have your say and explore and create new ways to promote the D-Day story so that it is remembered forever. You don't necessarily have to have an interest in D-Day to be part of the project: we are looking for fun, committed and enthusiastic individuals who can engage other young people.

I really love this place for dinner. They serve hand-made pizza and it is very good pizza. They have all different kinds of pizza, and the best part is there ice cream.

A cozy restaurant which has plenty of seating on the main floor and a small amount in an upstairs loft, Pizzeria Venti offers delicious pizza by the slice or as I tried, a very good Spinach & Ricotta Tampanini.

Our B&B owner recommended it while we waited for our room to be ready. The owner's mother greeted us and was really kind and explained the menu and helped us order. Food was great. Very clean, neat, and welcoming. Loved it!
Love their entire selection, plus they give a military discount (thanks!) They have plenty to choose from plus some great desserts - good seating on the second floor if you bring a crowd. Never disappointed at PV - very nice staff and excellent service. Locally owned and 2 Doors Down is the burger version of this great family owned restaurant.... More
The employee who greeted us was helpful and then became aggressive and overbearing. We discussed eating at a different location and she intruded on our conversation and told us that we would regret it if we left and continued to intrude on our conversation. We ended up leaving and this woman waited for us to leave the adjacent restaurant and... More
Met for a lunchtime business meeting. The food was excellent, well prepared and tasty and all selections were on display and looked very appetizing.

Good and varied menu that allows you to mix choices. Service is good but prices are a little high for the family atmosphere.
I went there with my husband and kids. Service was good but the food, well, I think fast food italian tastes better. The atmosphere is ok, but really dark. I won't be going back.
a change up on your typical Italian restaurant. a bit on the pricey side, but the food is good and the atmosphere is fun. worth the splurge every now and then.

We have 104 guests onlineThinking process in chess: 5 ideas to use in your own games |
Written by Yury Markushin |
Friday, 17 February 2012 00:20 |
I have written multiple articles about analyzing chess positions and about playing strategies in losing, drawish and winning positions. However, I did not specifically emphasized how to think during the game of chess in general. I understand, that each player is different and things that one uses may not work for the other or vice versa. I will try to summarize main ideas that can be applied to all or at least many different kinds of chess games. 1. Chess is a compromise game. Usually it is impossible to keep everything under control and achieve something without giving something up (blunders don't count). If you are defending you may keep all you pieces safely defended for some time. But, eventually you may not be fast enough to regroup your forces and to defend yet another weakness. Playing strictly defensive chess is not very wise. At the same time, if you're attacking your opponent with all your forces, your own King's safety may be compromised, since there may not be enough pieces for multitasking (simultaneous defense and attack). What's the best plan? The answer is simple, there isn't one simple plan which will lead to success. Else the game would be too boring. The main principle is to mix the defense and offense in the right proportions. Attack in the non-committing way, so that if danger arises you can retreat and defend your own King. 2. From the previous idea there is a follow-up about importance of space in chess. The side who has more space is usually the advantageous one. The space is a very important chess resource that can be used mainly to organize your pieces in the way you want and to prevent you opponent from organizing his pieces. By having space you don't need to waste time maneuvering the pieces around the board just to get them in the right places. At the same time, if your opponent don't have enough space (as the result of your space advantage), he will not be able to regroup and attack as fast as you can. In chess the side which checkmates first wins, regardless if the other side checkmates the move after. However, there are positions possible when too much space is not an advantage but a weakness. For example, if all the pawns of one side are overextended and occupy a lot of space. But they do not serve a good defensive purpose anymore and that side's King maybe vulnerable. Again, chess is a compromise game, once you occupy space with your pawns you King's position may suffer. 3. We said that space is an important parameter because it creates the possibility to regroup pieces in the shortest amount of time. That leads are to a concept of good/bad pieces and piece activity. Basically, to make full use of pieces we need to regroup them, so that they have maximum activity. For example, bishops should be placed on the open diagonals, knights - at the center (preferably on squares when they cannot be easily exchanged or chased away with pawns), rooks on the open files and the queen near the opponent's king or near the place where main activity is. Good pieces are the pieces that can be made active. Bad pieces are the ones that cannot be made active (bishops in dead locked pawn structure, knights with a lot of open diagonals, rook with no open files). The main rule of piece activity is simple: exchange bad pieces and preserve good ones. Similarly, you should try exchange good pieces of your opponent's for your bad pieces. That would lead to activity and an upper hand for you. 4. In order to be a good chess player you should think not only in terms of the point system (pawn = 1, bishop = knight = 3, rook = 5, etc.) but also in terms of good and bad, active and inactive pieces. You should make or prevent major positional changes according to your piece activity. For example, if you have active rooks and bishops you would not want to lock up the position. But if you have knights and your opponent has bishops, you would probably want to lock the position up and to dominate with your knights. 5. When you need to come up with a plan for a chess game, let the position dictate it for you. There is no need no reinvent in wheel in chess. For example, if you have knights on the board you should always look for the knight forks to surprise your opponent (or at least to destruct his attention away from something else you're planning). If you have bishops you should look for pins, since these long distance pieces are great for that. if you have rooks, there are definitely some skewers to come around. |

The Edgar Winter Group Free Ride
The Edgar Winter Group Frankenstein
Frankenstein Pro Guitar/Bass Upgrade
KoRn Freak on a Leash
KoRn Falling Away From Me
All Official HMX DLC
1 or 2 RBN Songs
All RBN Songs
I am chronically bitter and want to click something.
A Pony
Yeah, alright, not many, but it's still worthy on its own. Personally, I think it's the hardest post-RB3 DLC vocals song, perhaps behind Superbad and excluding RBN content.
I dunno. I never even knew about it until somebody posted it, and I asked if it existed anywhere but that video clip. Nobody answered.
I never even clicked the video myself.
Witticus: "GeeNef speaks to me like schizophrenia, his words touch me where my priest could reach."
The original full-length album version of Frankenstein is about 4:45. That 9 minute video clip was a live performance of the song most likely padded out with extended solos. HMX got it right. Looking forward to playing it and Free Ride later today.
No ghost notes in Freak On A Leash? Damn, makes the song much more fun to play. They are there and they are very much audible in the recording, wonder why they didn't chart them. They usually chart ghost notes even less audible than those.

PSN: mega-tallica
i might have to get "freak on a leash" just to force people to sing those silly words in the middle part of the song at RB parties.
Just played through the lot on guitar. Free Ride was awesome, both KoRn songs were boring chart-wise but I enjoyed them anyway. Guitarists might as well play Frankenstein on Keys as it's pretty much the same but with all the fun wacky bits thrown in too. Reminded me of down-strumming the whole thing on GH1. Good times...
Cool week.
Anyone having DLC issues? Neither Free Ride nor Frankenstein are showing up on my PS3 for purchase via PURCHASE NEW SONGS from the game.
And it looks like your release date for the PS3 DLC is listed as January 17, "2011", according to the cut and pasted HMXHENRY (#1) in this thread.
