text: Home Culture Raz-B's Molestation Publicity Blitz Former B2K member Raz-B has taken to YouTube to air accusations that his associates molested him as a child. Is he making a spectacle out of a serious issue? By: Michael Arceneaux Posted: Dec. 3 2010 5:23 PM 0 Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images For the benefit of headline-seeking celebrities everywhere, it's time we add an addendum to the phrase, "All press is good press." In recent months, thanks to the likes of Fantasia Barrino and Tyler Perry, suicide and molestation -- two issues largely unaddressed in the black community -- have been brought to the forefront. Of course, Barrino and Perry didn't let the media into their personal lives solely for the sake of awareness; both of them discussed their problems in conjunction with the promotion of their latest projects. Despite this, one could argue that at least the issues they've lent their names to may prompt an overdue public dialogue. I was initially inclined to agree, but after watching the breakdown of a fallen boy-band member over his alleged molestation, it's become clear that some stars who open up to the media about their troubled pasts can do more harm than good. Raz-B, a former member of the black boy band B2K, has launched an Internet tirade against the men he feels wronged him. Raz, born De'Mario Thornton, first leveled allegations of molestation against his ex-manager and cousin, Chris Stokes, on Christmas Eve in 2007 by way of a YouTube video. In it, he claimed that he and his brother Ricardo Thorton were inappropriately touched and molested by Stokes. Stokes quickly dismissed the claims, saying that they were "vehemently false and hold no merit." Raz-B lent credence to Stokes' denial when he apologized in a retraction video he posted just two days after his original video went viral. Nearly three years later, Raz-B is back with a vengeance and directing his anger at an ever growing number of targets. Citing as inspiration Perry's revealing Oprah Winfrey interview, in which he discussed the sexual and physical abuse he endured as a child, Raz-B has now backtracked on his original backtracking. Now he says that while Stokes did indeed touch him inappropriately, it was actor-singer Marques Houston who had sex with him without protection. Houston has vehemently denied these allegations and has since filed a restraining order against Raz-B, citing "emotional distress." Former bandmate Omarion, the group's breakout star, still aligns himself with Stokes and Houston and has also dismissed Raz-B as someone seeking money and attention. In an effort to validate his stories, he's released several videos of his recorded conversations with everyone from Houston's sister to Quindon Tarver, a former label mate who previously shared his own allegations of molestation at the hands of Stokes in a 2008 interview with Vibe magazine. Many of these conversations were recorded and released without consent, drawing the ire of various unwilling participants in Raz-B's viral campaign. Despite my own sneaking suspicions, it is not my place to state whether or not Raz-B's accusations are true. I do, however, have a problem with Raz-B's methodology. Days ago, Raz-B released another video -- this time of him holding a conversation with Ray-J. In the video, Raz continues the celebrity-patented pattern of mixing serious discussions with topics pertaining to his career. In previous videos, Raz-B has mentioned movies and new singles. In the latest, he seeks R&B singer and VH1 "celebreality" star Ray J's advice on how to salvage his career. Ray J suggests a reality show -- because we don't already have enough of those.

Quote:Dumb question if I might, when you used the 20mm eye piece with the 4 inch f/10 on NGC 278 , did it appear as a fuzzy disk, or just a slightly out of focus star, but you knew what it was??? I've searched in the area for 278 in the past, never from a dark sky site, and not found it. Awesome video as always . Thanks for sharing.

Recipe by Amy
"This is a wonderful dessert that doesn't take much effort. This is a great recipe to do with kids."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1 (1 ounce) envelope instant cocoa
4 tablespoons sweetened whipped cream
I had this once at a birthday party when I was younger. I found it to be creative and tasty. We also added green sprinkles for chives.
You can also use cocoa powder instead of hot chocolate mix. I too used green sprinkles for chives and cut a slit in the top of the "potato" to expose the inside. On Martha Stewart, they used butter to make butter pats as well, and served with chocolate sauce.

I did this for my kids for April Fool's Day. I told them, "This is your dinner, you need to eat it or you can't leave the table!" (Mom mean voice). They loved it!!
A yellow Starburst also makes a nice pat of butter. Daughter loved this. I served on April Fools Day along with a rice cereal meatloaf.
When I make this treat,I use cinnamon with a bit of sugar instead of the cocoa drink mix,and I make a slit and put green sprinkles for chives,a lemon drop for butter,with a couple of dollops of whipped cream as well as shaved chocolate bar for bacon bits. A friend freezes caramel candies and shreds them to use as the cheese.
Lots of fun! Kids love it.
good recipe, i had it at a restaurant once and they put caramel on top as well, for butter.
Huge Hit! My son was genuinely fooled! Now he asks for this above anything else for dessert :) Thanks!

I'm not even sure this qualifies since Search wasn't anything close to a big deal back then...
But mine came when I had a completely free little midi jukebox site that was hosted on my personal AOL account at the time (we're talking the 80's here) and was supposedly the in the top 5 of the most popular sites on the entire Internet. For two years running.
Had AOL not been picking up the tab because I was staff, there was no way in Hades I'd have been able to afford the hosting bill. And the hits/bandwidth it used up was considerably less than many of my sites take up today.

We began a website (html 1.0) called HOTCD.com - this was before e-commerce was even a term... we started it to resell returned computer CD's from best byyy (as they could not be sold as new again) - we took their returns inventory and gave them $3 for every CD we resold. The goal was to make our 800 number ring - and it worked fabulously! We also began the first list of end-users who had CD players installed at home or work (at that time, they did not come as standard on the computer) we would remail these names twice a year with new titles and get incredible response rates... we also repackaged to cardboard and sleeve and gained 10's of 1,000's of jewel cases we then resold for 20 cents apiece.
Wow, those were some of the days... this Industry makes me feel old again.

There are lots of very different kinds of hidden objects games. Sometimes it's letters or shapes that are hidden in this kind of girls games, and sometimes it's items that are hiding around a room. Well this game for girls is the second of these. You'll need to be super quick though because in this game for girls you've also got a timer, and if you don't find all the objects before your time runs out, you'll have to start the level from the beginning.
There are two ways of seeing the items to find in this free girls game. In some levels you'll see the items along the bottom, but in other levels you'll only be shown the items one at a time, so you also have to find them in the correct order - and thats more difficult. Good luck, and try out more hidden objects girls games on mygames4girls.

A common piece of advice in creative writing–or any writing for that matter–is "write what you know." The Nonprofit Partnership seeks to use the essence of that message through what they call "skilled volunteering."
The Nonprofit Partnership discussed the concept of skilled volunteering at a YEP! (Young Erie Professionals) social event at the Watson-Curtze mansion on Thursday evening. Speaking to the room of professionals from a range of disciplines, The Nonprofit Partnership director Robert Wooler emphasized that volunteers should let their "interest drive [their] engagement."
In a lot of ways, skilled volunteering leads to a quid pro quo relationship.
The Nonprofit Partnership is a membership-based organization providing education, training and tools to area nonprofits. Its members range from the American Heart Association to the Erie City Mission to the Erie County Historical Society (hence the event at the Watson-Curtze mansion.)
The partnership pairs professionals with specific skill sets (think web technologies, marketing and communications, finance, etc.) with the needs of its member organizations.
Wooler described volunteers' work as "small bites." Oftentimes, the work is project-based, but volunteers can make more permanent commitments.
At the end of the volunteer experience, there is a tangible product that the volunteer can add to his or her resumé.
"Each member of the team gets what they need going forward," said Wooler.
For professionals looking to forge a deeper relationship with an area nonprofit, the partnership recruits nonprofit board members.
The Nonprofit Partnership is hosting a training dinner for potential nonprofit board members on April 25.
To lend your skills to The Nonprofit Partnership, contact Robert Wooler at firstname.lastname@example.com.

With not just one, but two giant oarfish washing up on Southern California beaches lately, it's got some Californians worried. An old Japanese myth is that oarfish are harbingers of earthquakes. Some believe that the giant fish, which usually stay at least 3000 feet underwater, beach themselves when a large quake is immenent.
There were reports of several oarfish washing up before major quakes in Chile in 2010 and Japan in 2011. (The one in the picture is from near San Diego in 1996.)
Scientists, both biologists and geologists say there is no known connection between the fish and earthquakes. What do you think? Could there be something to this, or does it just smell fishy?

It's with some disappointment and some relief that I'm announcing that All World Dance is again on hold. Indefinitely.
The short version is that, after moving the site to a WordPress.org installation and getting a taste of what it would mean to both continue my current job and to try to build this on the side, I realized I can no longer spend every waking hour on the web.
I got into web publishing a little over ten years ago and since 2005 most of my time has been spent sitting in a chair at a computer. That hasn't been as bad as it sounds but I'm realizing I no longer have the stamina for wearing all hats and grinding it out 24/7.
All World Dance may return at a later date if I am able to put together a team with funding. There's a huge opportunity here and the blogging/content aspect is just the tip of the iceberg. But that opportunity must await another day.
I am going to be focusing on other forms of writing that will get me out of the house and back into the offline world. There will still be much chair-sitting but less of it will be spent at a computer.
Keep up with those developments at Flux Research. Thanks for your interest. I'm sure we'll meet again!

How Did Avocados Become the Official Super Bowl Food?
Guacamole and the Super Bowl. The two go hand in hand these days don't they?
And yet, if you visit the California Avocado Commission's website — brought to you by the state with 60,000 acres of avocado orchards — you won't find any mention of "Guacamole Sunday." Instead, a message on the site's front page reads: "Our season has ended. Look for California avocados in stores from Spring – Fall."
When I asked Will Brokaw, the California farmer behind Will's Avocados about this seemingly odd timing, he was quick to point to the irony.
"The California avocado season is just barely getting going at that time of year," he said. And while it's great that demand is so high, which in turn raises sales numbers and wholesale prices for everyone, it's a shame to see that demand at precisely the moment when Hass avocados – the most popular domestic variety – have yet to fully ripen. (The ones that do get picked in February are often watery, he says.)
"Everybody would be better off if the Super Bowl was delayed until early March," Brokaw added.
Well, maybe not everybody. In fact, as soon as I started looking into how avocados became the signature food for an event that takes place in the dead of winter, it quickly became clear that the Super Bowl-guacamole tie is a fascinating – perhaps disturbing – example of the way globalization has come to define the food on our plates.
Last year, according to the produce industry publication The Packer, about 75 percent of the avocados shipped within the U.S. in the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl came from Mexico. Most of the rest came from Chile. And that translates to a lot of the creamy green fruits. This year Americans will eat almost 79 million pounds of them in the few weeks before the big game – an eight million pound increase over last year and a 100 percent increase since 2003.
None of this has been an accident. The avocado industry started promoting guacamole as a Super Bowl food back in the 1990s, shortly after the NAFTA agreement began allowing floods of avocados from Central and South America to enter the country in winter. By 2008, Mexico had become the largest supplier of avocados to the U.S.
The Christian Science Monitor wrote about the phenomenon in this 2009 article, Super Bowl success story: Mexico's avocados.
In the central state of Michoacán, Mexico's avocado belt, exports generated $400 million last year, and it's now the second source of income for the state – after remittances sent from Mexicans living in the US.
"It has transformed this state, and put a hold on immigration," says José Luis Gallardo, the head of the Michoacán Avocado Commission and a plantation owner who has watched the industry explode in the past few years.
While fresh avocados have been a staple of the Mexican diet for centuries, in the US they were mostly consumed in California or Texas, where they are grown.
Today, the fruit is as common in California supermarkets as it is in Kansas.
This is where I start to feel conflicted. On the one hand, I feel truly happy for the Kansans who now have access to one of the world's most delicious, perfect foods. And I like knowing that so many people are serving guacamole at their Super Bowl parties instead of say, highly-processed cheese dip.
But the fact that the foreign avocado industry was able to create a new market for their product virtually overnight simply by pulling out all the stops on marketing the product as an established Super Bowl food also seems noteworthy.
Our increasing dependence on large monocrops and factory farms (think: vast swaths of almonds grown in California to feed Germany's hankering for marzipan, or the pork produced in Iowa's concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) intended for South Korea, Colombia, and Panama) comes with a steep price.
Until just a few decades ago, most Americans had a basic awareness of the way food and farming was connected to place, seasons, and the weather. Not only have we lost these things, but we've also lost touch with how and where our food is produced — a key piece of the puzzle when it comes to knowing that your dinner ingredients won't be, say, recalled for salmonella contamination, filled with antibiotics, or covered in pesticide residue.
I can call up Will Brokaw — or grab him at the farmers market — and ask him how he grows his avocados (everything from how he controls pests, treats the soil, and uses water, to how he treats his workers). And while the growers in Michoacán, Mexico, may very well be using the exact same farming practices, I have no way of knowing either way. That disconnect may not keep most of us from buying winter avocados, but it should give us pause — just like the other windows into the vast complexities of our food system should.
And that "perfect Super Bowl snack"? It may not be quite so perfect anymore.

I was pretty astonished to see this post come up in my RSS feed today, because my post on why guacamole is considered a Super Bowl food just went up at Table Matters this morning!
I do think that the NAFTA shift made avocadoes a great deal more visible and available, so it was both more possible and desirable to use them in snacks in or informal party foods (and not just the fancy crab dip at White House dinners). But that can't be the whole story of how it became a January/February event food–even Mexican avocadoes are less plentiful in the winter than in the summer, although they do grow all year. I don't really have an answer to that either, but I do think it's a demand partly driven by the market, not just created by the marketers.
Hm, I'm not sure why my previous comment didn't come through. Perhaps it got caught in a spam filter because of the link?
It reminded me of my favorite avocado dessert that I prepare quite often and my family simply loves it. And it could be called our traditional Super Bowl dish. This year, however, we're gonna try some delicious organic food prepared in one of the restaurants in our neighborhood called the Magic Oven. We fell in love with the food they serve and so quite naturally it was our first choice but, of course, my dessert will remain an inseparable part of our Super Bowl night. :)
This article was going ok until the last two paragraphs including the final comment…concluding that "perfect" equals American grown is just ignorant.
The situation is a little more complicated. NAFTA was the North American Free Trade Agreement and didn't involve Chile initially. Mexican avocados had been excluded from the US market, especially California and Florida, because of the danger of the importation of a weevil from Mexico. The original ban was also to protect growers. NAFTA allowed an opening of the market, and Mexican avocados were soon in stores everywhere.
I've traveled through the avocado growing areas of Michoacán. There are endless hillside covered with groves of the Haas variety. The climate is relatively cool and constant because of the altitude and being south of the Tropic of Cancer which tends to lead to year round production. Chile is different because it's south of the equator and has the opposite production period compared to the US. The market used to be dominated by the Fuerte variety, which produces fruit in the winter, but this variety is gone from the market.
The avocado has its origin in Mexico and Guatemala. I've read in Mexican reports that the avocado is extinct in the wild. One still finds other varieties in Mexico, usually just called "criollo," meaning locally native, but these are fast disappearing. For me the real problem is the monoculture and risk that certain genetic characteristics in other varieties will be lost.
My personal theory is that the indigenous people of Mexico invented guacamole as a way to prolong the consumption of avocados, which have a tendency to bruise easily and take on a rancid taste as the oil content rises at maturity. Guacamole is a great way to disguise this. It takes a fine avocado at its prime maturity to eat it plain out of the the rind. Now we have a triumph of native inventiveness and modern marketing. All I can say is, "¡Viva el aquacate!"
Let's remember that most of the problems with contamination (those that made the national news) have been traced to farms in Colorado and California. Also that protectionism seeks to give the advantage back to foods that are generally lower in quality and have become unpopular with consumers (Florida tomatoes, for example, which are picked green and gassed to ripeness, tasting noticeably worse than vine ripened Mexican tomatoes). It's true that consumers need to know how their food is grown, but the biggest problems seem to be right here at home.

Cwmbran Paralympic hero Chris Hallam dies
6:56pm Sunday 18th August 2013 in Pontypool news
Chris Hallam MBE, the Paralympic champion from Cwmbran who was an inspiration to athletes across the world, died last Friday.
Friends and colleagues paid tribute to the swimmer and wheelchair racer, who came home with medals at three consecutive Paralympic Games, in 1988, 1992 and 1996 as well as competing at the summer games in Stoke Mandeville in 1984.
Lifelong friend and fellow Paralympian John Harris said: "Quite simply Chris was my hero. For me, Chris was the first of the true professionals in Paralympic sport. He was the consummate athlete who prepared for every event down to the smallest detail. He was a larger than life character that you just wanted to be near to. 'Shades', as he was known, was a dear friend and will be sorely missed by everyone who ever knew him. My heart goes out to his family at this sad time."
Jim Munkley MBE, Disability Sport Wales board member and team member with Chris at the Seoul, Barcelona and Atlanta Games said: "Chris will be remembered as a true legend of Paralympic and Welsh sport. Not only was he a true competitor in every sense of the word, but he was also a great character to be around and to have known."
Mr Hallam, who was in his late 40s and had been ill with cancer, won the London Marathon twice, setting course records in both 1985 and 1987. He also competed for Team Wales at the Commonwealth Games in Victoria, Canada in 1994.
Tanni Grey-Thompson, who won 11 Paralympic gold medals and now sits in the House of Lords, posted on Twitter: "Really sad news that Chris Hallam has passed away. He was the reason we are where we are in wheelchair racing."
Mr Hallam "pushed" 400 miles in 11 days around Wales, raising money for the first accessible sports centre in the country. Along with John Harris, he achieved his goal in 1997 by pushing 600 miles in 37 days, raising enough for the centre to be built at the (formerly named ) University of Wales Institude, Cyncoed Campus site.
After retiring from competitive sport, Mr Hallam coached other up-and-coming wheelchair racers.
Disability Sport Wales described Mr Hallam as "an inspiration to athletes and the public alike" who was "always striving to improve his personal performances, whilst seeking to promote and grow the awareness of disability sport at a time when its profile was still relatively low."

There are some unique business opportunities suddenly opening up around here. Have you heard that the Historic Clinton Street Movie Theater in Portland is for sale? The theater on the corner of 26th and Southeast Clinton is home to many film festivals, independent movies and of course the Rocky Horror Picture show every Friday and Saturday night. The asking price is 124-Thousand dollars. Just something to think about.
Want to know more? http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/reo/2890011440.html
Or.... you could own a liquor store in the state of Washington. As you know, voters have decided that the state should get out of the liquor business as of June, so the state is auctioning-off its existing stores. There are 9 in Clark County, including 5 in Vancouver. The minimum bid is $1000. (A lot cheaper than a movie theater). If you're the winning bidder you'll still have to negotiate a lease, apply for a retail liquor license, and stock you store shelves. Part of that challenge is deciding what products to sell. The big box stores (like Costco, Safeway, and Fred Meyer) will be carrying all of the most popular brands, so you might be wise to opt for the locally-produced stuff.

Although very few, there are some Criterion DVDs i have thoroughly disliked.
Besides The Rock and Armageddon, which I'd imagine many don't care for, the 1956 film Crazed Fruit by Ko Nakahira stands out for me. It's been a couple years since I watched it but I remember thinking it was the longest 80 or so minutes I'd ever sat through. I found it visually uninteresting and silly.
What are some other films unworthy of the Criterion release?
The Long Good Friday, but only because it has no special features and the print is pretty much identical to the Cult Films edition which is available for $9.99 as opposed to Criterion's $39.99 treatment.
I was pretty disappointed with Mona Lisa, as much as I love Neil Jordan and Bob Hoskins. It just didn't "do it" for me. I'll take some heat for this, but I couldn't even get through 30 minutes of one of the Seijun Suzuki flicks…I think it was Tokyo Drifter. I was bored stiff and totally unengaged. Alphaville was slow and disappointing. I love Terry Gilliam, but Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is just a big mess. In terms of the DVD itself, it's a shame that Criterion used the shortened version of the wonderful Kwaidan. That's all I can think of off the top of my head.
Let's not forget Robocop.
Although the premise is compelling — the film itself? ehhh.
But I'd have to agree, Armageddon takes the cake as the official worst.
Not a Verhoeven fan, but I'll stand up for Robocop. It's my favorite of his American films. I forgot to mention my least favorite Cronenberg film, Naked Lunch. The DVD set is outstanding, but the film itself (aside from being visually inspired) does absolutely nothing for me.
Armageddon and The Rock are the only two movies I can claim to be unworthy of the collection. There are other films I don't care for, but I understand their worth to others. I'm glad no one has mentioned Chasing Amy. I hate when it comes up in this conversation as it is one of my favourite films.
Who is it? Come on… talk now… was it you Ashkin?
"You have 10 seconds to comply…"
"I'd buy that for a dollar!"
I hate to admit it too, but Criterion does have a few dogs. I managed to watch Powell-Pressburger's "49th Parallel" and couldn't believe how bad it was.
my least favourite, of the ones i own at least, is the beastie boys anthology. i just dont like them musically very much. robocop is not as bad as i expected, i only picked it up originally as it was out of print and i found it cheap, but fully enjoyed it.
I'd spend my life savings to buy that!!!!!
And I would use it on the streets to create chaos and hysteria.
Youth of the Beast was a real disappointment. I can see where people are coming from and I understand the aesthetic of the movie, but it's jangly plot and threadbare connections between any of the scenes was a bit maddening for me.
I don't know why but I was never able to get through "The Bank Dick". Not sure if that makes it unworthy or not but thats all I can recall
There's quite a French and Japanese bias in the movies Criterion chooses, for whatever reason. I'm waiting for "The Friends of Eddie Coyle"- that's an uncharted masterpiece, unseen for so many years, and I'm sure Criterion will do the business in making this film an essential addition to their collection. Less French and Japanese please… it's too crowded with these countries as it is.
AKBAR, you don't like 'The Bank Dick'?
"Had a cod liver oil mine up in Cape Cod. Snowed all winter. We did alot of boondoggling. Ever boondoggle, Joe?"
I can't remember any other film I really disliked on Criterion besides "George Washington" it came off as very pretentious to me, and really not that interesting or engaging. Although I love "Insomnia," the Criterion of it hasn't been treated that well. It was, and still is (as far as I know), the only American release of the film, so I guess they didn't feel compelled to put a lot of work into it and add any decent extras.
I honestly did not enjoy "The Thief of Bagdad". It was an unbelievable transfer and the extras were great. I just could not enjoy the film.
Andrew Kay — I totally agree with you. I love Japanese and French cinema, but it seems Criterion is so focused on these that other countries get lost in the wake. Of course, there are a number of Italian, Spanish, and English films, but still… I'd like to see a lot more from other places. China. India (why is there nothing by Satyajit Ray?). Brazil. etc.
George — I think one of the points of George Washington was that it was not supposed to be pretentious! It was made on a super small budget with non-professional actors, and it uses real locations (no sets) and everything is shown as dilapidated as it really is in the south.
6 Short Films By W.C. Fields. Love the shorts, hate the total absence of extras.
The Rock and Armageddon, not doubt. But tecnically the transfer of the wonderful "I Know Where I'm Going" is very bad!
It's a little off-topic but I went to see a restored print of David Lean's 'Hobson's Choice' last night and am now very much looking forward to Criterion's forthcoming DVD. It's a wonderful film, full of joy and pitch-perfect performances.
F for Fake by Orson Welles. I was watching late at night, so I nodded off for litlle bit but woke up. Watched a few more minutes and went to bed. Think I'll try to watch it again…and at an earlier time, too.
I'll agree with Naked Lunch and Videodrome.
Cronenberg does little for me at best.
Aside from the Michael Bay films:
Samurai Spy
A Lot of Prople Like Green For Danger but I didn't
Started out not liking Metropolitan, but very much liked the ending
Chasing Amy is a good movie but doesn't deserve to be on the list
House Of Games
The bay films should not be up there. I do have a problem paying top dollar for bare bone dvd's, and they do have a few.
"Worst Criterion DVD" makes sense to me as a premise but I can't really go along with the "unworthy of Criterion release" notion. It's their company and they set the criteria! I don't know much about the inner workings of their business but it seems to me that they have gone through some ups and downs that probably necessitated (for financial reasons) both the inclusion of Michael Bay and Kevin Smith films and the release of several "bare bones" titles in the early 2000s (like Good Morning, Variety Lights, Insomnia and others) where the expense of putting decent extras together may have been more than they could muster. Nowadays it seems like Criterion is doing rather well, at least judging by the quality of their packaging and supplementary features. I think they are due to lower the list prices on some of those older editions because it's really hard to justify paying $30 or $40 when you can get much better bang for the buck in the newer releases.
for whatever reason, "I'd buy that for a dollar!" makes it into my conversations on a daily basis and I haven't seen Robocop in nearly a decade. weird.

In a new relationship, it's obvious to ask
questions. Find out the best mode of communication and the best times to
do so from your agent directly. Some prefer fax, where others prefer
phone. Personally, I like email.
Find out what expectations your agent has for your
developing relationship. Is it ok to check in with him/her during the
slower season? How does he/she prefer to receive updated
headshots/resumes? What political events would he/she like you to attend?
Which industry partners (photographers, coaches, etc.) does he/she find most
valuable for the talent?
In a seasoned relationship, the need to ask
questions to stay updated isn't nearly so obvious. Talent who have had a
long relationship with their agent develop a style of communication that
becomes comfortable for all parties. Sometimes, reminders are necessary
to be sure that you are growing together rather than apart. Once a
year, take the time to touch base with your agent and ask if there are any
communication standards you can use that would fit their needs better.
Use some of the flexibility as a talent that makes you so successful in your relationships and watch the positive consequences that follow. Your agent will be happier and know that you are a team player, which will make him/her work all the harder and put you at the top of the call list!

York ARL in mourning over All Blacks' Phil 'OJ' Johnson
10:38am Thursday 30th August 2012 in News
THE start of amateur rugby league's winter season this weekend has been overshadowed by the tragic death of New Earswick All Blacks chairman Phil Johnson.
The All Blacks' first and second teams were to kick off their Pennine League campaigns on Saturday but all of the club's games – from open age to juniors – have been postponed as a mark of respect to the ultra-popular 'OJ'. Their first game will now be at home to Westgate a week on Saturday.
The club are not making any comment until given permission by Johnson's family but all at the White Rose Avenue outfit are understood to be devastated.
Johnson was chairman and open-age league secretary at All Blacks, and was also heavily involved in the York Ladies rugby league team, which had a base at White Rose Avenue.
As reported on The Press' news pages today, Johnson is believed to have suffered a heart attack while on a plane to Turkey. Some of the All Blacks players found out when making the annual trip to the Challenge Cup final at Wembley on Saturday. All of York rugby league has been shocked by the news.
Heworth ARLC spokesman Ken Sykes said: "Our clubs haven't been playing in the same leagues but I know he did a lot for them and they're going to miss him. It's terrible news."
Andy Grant, first-team secretary at York Acorn, said: "It's extremely sad news. Our main links were through York Ladies, who were based at New Earswick but played some of their games here. He was a great guy and a great amateur rugby league person in York."
Ian Wilson, York City Knights general manager, said: "The club's thoughts go out to his family and friends and everybody associated with New Earswick All Blacks at this difficult time.
"He did a lot for the All Blacks. Someone once described him as 'Mr New Earswick' with all the work he did. It's a very sad loss and our thoughts are with everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him."

I found my way here with hopes to maybe restart an old hobby of mine.
A few years ago I was posting every day with a tight-knit rp group.... but my old buddies have scattered, and It's safer to say I'm rusty.
I've dabbled in many genres, but I'm interested in trying all kinds of new settings and characters. Probably going to be lurking for a bit, checking you all out. I'm not sure where I want to start, but I'm hoping to find interesting people!

Owen Moore
Director of Dining Services
New York University
Hometown: Milburn, N.J.
Education: Graduated with a business leadership degree from NYU
Lives in Maplewood, N.J. with wife, Patti, and two daughters, Kelsey, 12, and Lindsey, 9
When an injury sidelined Owen Moore, director of dining services at 12,000-student New York University five years ago, he needed a safe way to get back into shape. Cycling provided him with a way to rehabilitate and, now that he's healed, have a lot of fun.
"From 1987 to 1992 I ran food and beverage operations for the Reach Resort in Key West, Fla., and during that time, I became fairly active in triathlons, which was my first introduction to any type of competitive cycling. When I moved back up north, I continued to do some mountain biking. Then about five years ago, I was in a very bad skiing accident, where I broke my right leg in seven places. So after eight months, it was time to start thinking about ways to rehab my leg and my doctor recommended I set a goal for myself since I'd always been an active person. I couldn't run and I couldn't play basketball because of the pins in my leg but I could ride a bike. So I went out and purchased a brand new road bike and I started using it as a way to rehabilitate and get back into shape and it took off from there.
I started meeting people and when the weather got nice, that's when I really started focusing on riding. I ride only as an amateur and I actually ride with a group of my friends for a lot of charities. We ride as a team and we ride for three main causes: cancer, diabetes and multiple sclerosis. For example, last August, my fellow riders and I went down to West Virginia and did a tour called Mountain Mama. It's a 100-mile race that travels through the mountains and there is a lot of climbing, which is pretty challenging. You wouldn't do it as a normal rider, so that was a big highlight.
When I travel, I always try to bring or rent a bike. I'm 45 years old and my goal is to ride in all 50 states by the time I'm 50. So my motto around my house is 50 by 50. I only started during the last three years and I have already ridden in 17 states. During the summer, I'm planning how I can accomplish another five or six states. For example, out West you can go to the four corners, where New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado and Utah come together, and ride in a big circle so you hit all those states at once. That's how you conquer the Dakotas too. My favorite places to ride so far have been California, Virginia and West Virginia. I also had the opportunity to ride in Japan and Turkey.
In the winter, I teach cycling or spinning classes three days a week. Those classes are 60-minute classes, which start at 5:45 in the morning. When the weather is nice, I average about 125 to 150 miles a week by riding about three or four times a week before work. Last year alone, during the calendar year, I logged 3,000 miles on my bike.
I had always wanted to ride 100 miles at once, which is called a century. A friend of mine decided we were going to do it together to see what it was like, but it was always difficult to find time because we're both married and have kids. Riding 100 miles will take you anywhere between six and seven hours, so we had to figure out how to take that time out of our weekends, so we decided we'd do it on Father's Day. It was our day so we could do what we wanted. We started at 5:30 a.m. and rode into western New Jersey, where we rode our 100 miles, and we were back by noon. We called it the Father's Day Century. The next year we had eight people ride with us, the next year we had 14 people, and this past year we had 17. It's strictly an amateur ride and this year we're anticipating anywhere from 25 to 30 riders—all fathers who are just saying that riding a century is how they wanted to spend their Father's Day.
Cycling is great meditation. It gives me time to really think through any type of challenges or problems I'm having. And from a physical standpoint, it's a great stress reliever."

Anomalous scattering with soft X-ray radiation creates new possibilities in phasing for macromolecular crystallography. The heart of a Cr-Phasing HomeLab is any Rigaku rotating anode generator with a chromium anode.
All Rigaku rotating anode generators can be equipped with chromium (Cr) targets to provide the foundation for a Cr-Phasing HomeLab. All Cr-Phasing HomeLabs use the same optics and choice of large aperture detector.
VariMax™ Cr optics maximize the beam produced by the Rigaku generators and deliver it exactly where it is needed: on the crystal. Incident and exit helium beam paths reduce air absorption and reduce background scatter. Since Cr radiation expands the diffraction pattern relative to Cu, a large aperture detector, such as the Rigaku R-AXIS IV++ or R-AXIS HTC, is recommended.
As with all Rigaku's protein crystallography systems, the HKL3000-R software suite provides instrument control, data processing, and structure solution capabilities.
Cr-Phasing HomeLab Features:
- Microfocus rotating anode X-ray generator
- Chromium anode
- Optional dual wavelength (Cr/Cu) anode
- Single or (optional) dual wavelength VariMax optics
- Large aperture imaging plate (IP) detector
- Helium X-ray path
- Single φ (vertical or inverted) goniometer
- HKL-3000R software

I have 7 servers (3 of them 2008 R2) and the only way I can get the backups to complete is to login, run them manually and wait for them to finish. I email support and got an auto response back telling me that I was SPAM and shoudl go use the self help portal.
Time to find another solutions for my backups. **Removed** looks to be pretty good, $19.95 per moonth, per server, for 100GB of space.
I un-installed the latest Mozy and re-installed the older version. Now my backups are working beautifully again.
BTW I've used Mozy for years with virtually no problem - until this week. Prior to that I looked at and used various backup solutions and found them very hard to use and full of problems.Since I started with Mozy a few years ago my life has been much easier. I think their latest release wasn't exactly ready for prime tilme but I'll still stick with them (at least for now) because the problems Mozy has given me are nothing compared to the hassles I;ve had with other internet backup services. I don't have hours to waste checking out other backup services.
I'm seeing the same types of symptoms. MozyServerError12, MozyClientError2, snapshot problems, file locking issues and backups that just seem to go out to lunch.... When you downgraded, did you have to perform a new complete backup again?
I'm doing a full backup only because my backup attempts using the latest Mozy version in the past several days, none ever finished. I always got error 12 messages. So the only way to be safe is to do a full backup using the "downgrade."
I upgraded to Mozy 2.0 and my backup attempts have also been plagued with MozyServerError12. I've yet to be able to do one complete backup without Mozy hanging up.
I believe Mozy jumped the gun in releasing version 2.0.
After renaming the resume and state files. I had once manual backup succeed, and one automatic.
The next automatic just seemed to hang.
I then did the winsock reset that was referenced elsewhere as a problem with Mozy 2, and so now letting it run again.
If I switched back to version 1.16 , understand that I have to first uninstall Mozy 2 and then install 1.16.
What happens to my configuration file ? I have about 60GB of data stored and don't want to have to figure out what folders are being backed up. Will it preserve my configuration file ? Is the configuraiton as to which folders located locally or does it keep that on the Mozy servers ?
So I am reluctant to go back for fear of losing my configuration.
The configuration is in:
Save that file off somewhere before you downgrade. After getting the old version setup (after you've activated it), replace the new one with the one you saved off. That should keep your configuration settings.
After running into MozyServerError12 problems with Mozy 2.0, I uninstalled 2.0 and reinstalled Mozy 22.214.171.124. Unfortunately, I am still unable to backup. I am now getting ConnectionError9 messages even though I wasn't having any problems prior to the "upgrade" to 2.0. Boy, this is frustrating. After a good run with Mozy I am ready to try out another service if Mozy doesn't get their act together.
Does anyone have any suggestions to fix my problems? I've tried both automatic and manual backups to no avail. Thanks.
I reinstalled version 1.16 ,
however, it does not work either, starts to run, then hangs, with errors in log saying error in sending.
I see that Mozy support finally, looked at the ticket I opened a week ago for problems with Mozy 2.
Said that it looks like a Manifest error, and the engineers will have to look at it and suggested stopping attempting any backups.
I opened another ticket for the 1.16 issue. Could be that Mozy 2 has screwed things up so that 1.16 won't really run.
Following is what Mozy support asked me to do. Basically they have a new version, so I did this and the back up is now running. Note, when you do the netsh winsock reset , you have to restart your machine.
I would suggest anyone with trouble also open a ticket from their support page and also try the LiveChat online to get assistance. At least that way there is some record of your problem and in my case they notified me of the update
Please upgrade the Mozy client to the latest version MozyHome 18.104.22.168. I understand that you uninstalled it and installed MozyHome 184.108.40.206 since the backups weren't successful on the latest client. However, if you upgrade the Mozy client again, run a backup and the issue persists, you can send us the Mozy log file attachment for issue analysis. If I notice that the issue needs to be escalated, I'll do so.
Download Mozy at: https://mozy.com/downloads/mozy-2_0_12_3-12645.exe
So, please upgrade the Mozy client and also work with the following steps to have successful backups:
1) Right click on the Mozy icon, click "Configure", "Options" and the "Scheduling" tab. Put a check mark on the option "Attempt Automatic Backup even if Network Connection is not detected."
2) Please add the Mozy processes as an exception in the anti virus software on your computer. Refer to the documentation or help available on the anti virus program to know how to add an exception.
3) Click on the "Start" button. Click "Run." Type the word "cmd" in the open box. When the DOS screen comes up, type "netsh winsock reset." Press "Enter." Type "exit" to close the DOS window and go back to Windows and run a backup.
Please follow the above steps, run a backup and check the backup history. If the issue persists, please send the Mozy log file for further assistance. The log file is located at "C:\Program Files\MozyHome\Data\Mozy.log".

Lord Grade, Gyles Brandreth and Toby Young will be appearing at the Isle of Wight Literary Festival.
EXCITEMENT is building ahead of next month's Isle of Wight Literary Festival, which will bring some of Britain's best loved writers to the Island.
Literary luminaries confirmed to appear include Louis de Bernieres, Gyles Brandreth, Lord Grade, Celia Imrie, Toby Young, Anneka Rice, Brough Scott and Raffaella Barker, who will talk on topics ranging from romance and royalty to crime and cakes.
The festival, which runs from October 12 to 14, is the first event of its kind to be held on the Island, and will include literary tours, debates, creative writing and media workshops, poetry jams, bookbinding classes, music and storytelling.
The varied bill will include events for children, a discussion on e-books hosted by Lord Grade of Yarmouth, an hour of renaissance music by Louis de Bernieres, a talk on Dracula by Bram Stoker's grandson, Noel Dobbs, and an evening with Rebecca Chance, who will read the naughty bits from her latest 'bonkbuster' over dinner.
Most events will be held at Northwood House, Cowes, and all profits will go towards the upkeep of the building.
A festival spokesman said: "With a remarkable literary heritage — Keats, Dickens and Tennyson were all here — and a well-established reputation as a festival venue, the Island is the perfect place to host a literary extravaganza."
For further details and tickets, visit www.isleofwightliteraryfestival.org
Tickets are also available from the County Press shop and Waterstones, Newport, or by calling 07574 937717.
