Product description
Deluxe collector's edition featuring the first edition text and containing a facsimile page of Tolkien's original manuscript. The book is quarterbound with a gold motif stamped on the front board and is presented in a matching slipcase. The Fall of Arthur, the only venture by J.R.R. Tolkien into the legends of Arthur King of Britain, may well be regarded as his finest and most skilful achievement in the use of the Old English alliterative metre, in which he brought to his transforming perceptions of the old narratives a pervasive sense of the grave and fateful nature of all that is told: of Arthur's expedition overseas into distant heathen lands, of Guinevere's flight from Camelot, of the great sea-battle on Arthur's return to Britain, in the portrait of the traitor Mordred, in the tormented doubts of Lancelot in his French castle. Unhappily, The Fall of Arthur was one of several long narrative poems that he abandoned in that period. In this case he evidently began it in the earlier nineteen-thirties, and it was sufficiently advanced for him to send it to a very perceptive friend who read it with great enthusiasm at the end of 1934 and urgently pressed him 'You simply must finish it!' But in vain: he abandoned it, at some date unknown, though there is some evidence that it may have been in 1937, the year of the publication of The Hobbit and the first stirrings of The Lord of the Rings. Years later, in a letter of 1955, he said that 'he hoped to finish a long poem on The Fall of Arthur'; but that day never came. Associated with the text of the poem, however, are many manuscript pages: a great quantity of drafting and experimentation in verse, in which the strange evolution of the poem's structure is revealed, together with narrative synopses and very significant if tantalising notes. In these latter can be discerned clear if mysterious associations of the Arthurian conclusion with The Silmarillion, and the bitter ending of the love of Lancelot and Guinevere, which was never written.

Author information
J.R.R. Tolkien is best known for The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, selling 150 million copies in more than 60 languages worldwide. He died in 1973 at the age of 81. Christopher Tolkien is the third son of J.R.R. Tolkien. Appointed by J.R.R. Tolkien to be his literary executor, he has devoted himself to the publication of his father's unpublished writings, notably The Silmarillion and The History of Middle-earth. This is his 21st book.
Review quote
Praise for The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrun: "This is the most unexpected of Tolkien's many posthumous publications; his son's 'Commentary' is a model of informed accessibility; the poems stand comparison with their Eddic models, and there is little poetry in the world like those" Times Literary Supplement "The compact verse form is ideally suited to describing impact... elsewhere it achieves a stark beauty" Telegraph

Monday, December 27, 2010
We pushed our way through the mad rush at the market, having hoped to avoid the Christmas Eve crowds by arriving early enough, but it seemed like half of Nantes was packed into the limited space, crawling up and down the alleys and lining up at each and every stall, only the best, most holiday-spirited of them not going all Scrooge on us and each other. My son trailed after me, having had enough of Christmas goodwill to drag himself out of bed and accompany me, making suggestions in his own 22-year-old style: slight sneer, rolling eyes in disbelief that his old mom and resident food blogger did not have the wherewithal to decide on a menu by herself. Phone stuck to the side of his head, hair elegantly brushed up, pearl gray scarf knotted at his neck and tucked into his designer jacket, looking for all the world like the chic young man about town and budding businessman that he is, growling out his suggestions as if each one was as obvious as the next, he followed me ten paces behind until we met up at the fish counter: smoked salmon, only the best, the price of gold ingots, and lovely little smoked haddock blinis, luxurious. Further down, we queued at the "fat lady's" stand, as we so rudely yet lovingly refer to our favorite fishmonger, keeper of all things wonderful: oysters, mussels, crabs and lobster, and we snapped up a dozen plump, shimmering sea scallops amid the noise and bustle around us, closing in. We made sure that a chilled bottle of white fruity wine, the perfect partner for seafood, was nestled cozily deep in our basket and then fresh linguine at the Italian stand with a thick, creamy slice of gorgonzola, a swing by our fruit stand for a crisp paper bagful of sweet clementines and it was all we needed for our festive menu à trois. Popping into the warmth of our favorite boulangerie, breathing in the fragrance of a thousand warm-from-the-oven loaves and one round, dense, crusty pain bûcheron perched on the top of our provisions and we headed back out into the cold and home again. Even the lack of snow, the White Christmas I had been praying for, could not crush my holiday spirit. As I glanced up at the pewter sky, squinting against the misty drizzle, I smiled to myself, excited that this would turn out to be a wonderful day, a magical joyous weekend after all.
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse on this beautiful inky black Christmas Eve. Clem and I bustled around the house, setting a glamorous table as is rarely seen chez nous, laying out platters of glistening olives and tiny marinated baby artichokes alongside the tray of smooth, smoky salmon and lining up the gaily-wrapped gifts on the mantel as we waited for JP to arrive home from work. Excitement filled the air as we glanced out into the quiet night, watching for his familiar stride. Our evening would be spent en famille, only Simon missing and missed, as we enjoyed a wonderful meal of Sea Scallops with Champagne Cream Sauce served over fresh pasta after the plates from our first course had been cleared away. After the meal, we adjourned to the livingroom with the last of the wine and exchanged gifts, many gifts, mostly thanks to Clem who, in the satisfied and happy glow of having finally received the new computer that he had been campaigning for for months, broke the bank and splurged on a mountain of gifts for his old folks. We settled in for the evening, sated and content, awash in the true pleasure that a happy family can give, pouring another glass of wine, passing around the sachets of chocolate-covered candied fruit and marrons glacés. No television was needed to pass the time as we chatted, flipped through our new books, admired all that we had received and listened as Clem talked about his around the world trip being planned for next summer, Marty digging happily through the gift wrap and ribbons at our feet.
The following day, Christmas day, the city slept on and on, nothing open, no sign of life in the streets below, silence hanging heavy under skies dawning cold, bright and clear. After a lazy morning in bed, our well-deserved and welcome grasse matinée, we hung around the house enjoying the calm. JP prepared me a lunch fit for a Roi Mage, a king, a magnificent Farfalle al Salmone, using up the last of the smoked salmon, some white mushrooms, garlic and cream he found to make this fabulous pasta dish, and we enjoyed yet another great meal. A stroll through Nantes left us in a funk, sad that the city wasn't alive and noisy, festive and full of color and music. The only thing open was the cinema so we ducked inside, found a movie we had both wanted to see and ended the afternoon satisfied. We returned home in good moods all around to another cozy evening inside.
We tiptoe towards a new year (always just a little nervous about what may be in store for us) and this week between Christmas and New Year is the time most of us take a wistful look back, counting our blessings, adding up all the good things that have happened, analyzing the less than savory "incidents" that may have befallen us, the sad lined up next to the good like Santa's list of Naughty and Nice. We think of the friends we have made and the loved ones we have lost, the many doors to adventure and opportunity that have been opened as well as what has passed us by, quite often due to our own reticence in reaching out and turning the doorknob ourselves. 2010 has been an exciting, albeit sometimes bumpy ride for us and, all in all, we end the year with a bang, a shower of glitter and tinsel, a veritable fireworks display! We haven't had the white Christmas that I have been dreaming of, but the holiday weekend was filled with love and laughter and Santa brought me the gifts any girl would be thrilled with. And I smile as I think of the real gifts I have received, the happy marriage, the sons turning into bright, smart, productive young men, and the best, most truest friends I could have ever hoped for. I look towards the new year, 2011, with hope and excitement, projects galore and the wish of reward for passion and hard work, with hopefully a bit of adventure thrown into the bargain as well.
And we finish off the holiday celebrations with a wonderful dessert duo, a velvety smooth, luxuriously creamy, delicately and surprisingly-flavored Panna Cotta made using delicious, fragrant blueberry-hibiscus sugar, paired with chewy, flavorful macarons, a perfect match of cocoa and more blueberry-hibiscus sugar, filled with a rich ganache made from Blueberry Dark Chocolate, one of Lindt's new fabulous array of flavored chocolates. As I sit back and dip my spoon into the Panna Cotta, take a bite out of a macaron, I wish you all a fabulous and happy holiday season and wonder what each of you will wish for in the year to come.
3 cups (750 ml) heavy cream, or a combination of heavy cream, light cream/half-and-half and/or whole milk
2 tsps (1/4 ounce, about 8 g) unflavored powdered gelatin
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup (50 g) white granulated sugar
¼ cup (50g) blueberry-hibiscus sugar or other flavored sugar
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, place 1 cup (250 ml) of the cream mixture and sprinkle the gelatin on top. Allow to sit for 5 minutes to soften the gelatin. Turn on heat to low and allow to slowly heat and cook for a couple of minutes until the gelatin dissolves completely, whisking gently. The gelatin, until dissolved, will be golden shimmering splotches on the surface of the white cream. When the gelatin is dissolved these splotches will disappear.
Add the remaining cream mixture and the sugars to the warm cream and gelatin in the saucepan and continue to heat gently, just until sugar dissolves; add vanilla. This should take a few minutes. Allow to heat thoroughly.
Carefully pour the mixture into glasses or small bowls (using either a soup ladle or, better yet, pour the cream into a heatproof measuring glass and pour) and chill for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
7.2 oz (200 g) confectioner's/powdered sugar
4 oz (115 g) ground blanched almonds
3 large egg whites (about 3.8 – 4 oz/ 110 – 112 g)
1 oz (30 g) white granulated sugar or half sugar + half blueberry-hibiscus sugar *
1 Tbs + 1 tsp (20 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
* I sifted my blueberry-hibiscus sugar in order to eliminate the solid bits so I ended up with only sugar. Then blend it with the white granulated sugar. Use any flavored sugar you like.
Prepare 2 large baking sheets. On 2 large pieces of white paper the size of your baking sheets, trace 1 – inch diameter circles (I used the wide end of my pastry tip) evenly spaced, leaving about ¾ - 1 inch between each circle. This will be your template to help you pipe even circles of batter onto the parchment paper. You will be able to reuse these endlessly. Place one paper on each baking sheet then cover with parchment paper. Set aside. Prepare a pastry bag with a plain tip.
Sift the powdered sugar, the ground almonds and the cocoa powder together into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
In a standing mixer or with a hand mixer, whip the egg whites for 30 seconds on low speed then increase speed to high and whip until the whites are foamy. Gradually add the granulated sugars, both white and blueberry, as you continue to whip the whites until you obtain a glossy meringue and all of the sugar has been beaten in. The meringue will be very stiff (turn the bowl upside down over your head and they shouldn't move) and be dense like marshmallow.
Gently but firmly fold the whipped whites into the powdered sugar/ground almonds/cocoa, using a silicon spatula or the equivalent, turning the bowl as you lift and fold, making sure you fold in all the dry ingredients completely. When the batter is ready to pipe, it should flow from the spatula like lava or a thick ribbon. To test to see if you have folded it enough, drop a small amount onto a clean plate and jiggle it slightly. The top should flatten, not remain in a point. If it doesn't flatten, give the batter a few more folds and test again. You can also fold the powdered mixture into the meringue if it is easier for you.
Fill your pastry bag with the batter. Pipe circles onto the parchment paper, using the traced circles on the template sheets to guide you, holding your pastry bag above each circle and piping into the center. DO NOT FORGET TO CAREFULLY REMOVE THE WHITE PAPER TEMPLATE FROM UNDERNEATH THE PARCHMENT PAPER. YOU DO NOT WANT THIS TEMPLATE TO GO IN THE OVEN!
Preheat your oven to 280°F (140°C).
Allow the macarons to sit out for 45 minutes to an hour. The top of each shell should form a "skin" (it will feel like it hardened a bit when gently touched and not stick to your skin). Bake the shells for 15 – 25 minutes, depending on their size (when I touched macs that were not quite done, the top jiggled a bit as if there was still a bit of liquid batter between the top and the "feet" so I let it continue to bake another minute.) I turn the trays back to front halfway through the baking.
Remove the tray from the oven and immediately slide the parchment paper with the shells off of the hot baking sheet and onto a surface, table or countertop. Allow to cool completely before sliding the shells very gently off of the parchment by slipping a metal cake spatula under the shell as you lift it up or by peeling the parchment paper from the back of the shells. Be careful or the center of the shell risks sticking to the parchment.
When the macaron shells are cool, pair the shells up evenly, each with a partner. Pipe a dollop, about a teaspoon, of ganache filling onto half of the shells, the bottom shell in each pair. Carefully sandwich the shells together.
½ cup (125 ml) heavy cream
4 ¼ oz (120 g) Lindt Excellence 70% Blueberry Dark Chocolate
Chop the chocolate and put in an appropriately-sized pyrex (heatproof) bowl. Heat the cream in a saucepan gently until it comes just to the boil. Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate and stir until all of the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and luxurious. Allow to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. It should thicken to a spreading/piping consistency. If you need to, speed up the process by placing in the refrigerator until desired spreading/piping consistency, stirring occasionally.

Your writing paints a picture of a bustling Nantes and I was highly amused by your "chic" young man. Does he read these posts? If so, does the eye roll size and length of time increase?
Thank you for your step by step instructions of how to make a macaron. The girls are home this weekend and, for us in Florida, it is cold outside. Perhaps this weekend will be the one we actually have the courage to try making them.
- December 29, 2010 at 5:26 AM

@Lael Hazan @educatedpalate : Ha ha ha I hope he doesn't read the posts or will I ever be in trouble! His eyes may just pop out of his head! And let me know how the macs come out!

I'd be tiptoeing towards a DIET if I lived in your house - OMG how do you stay slim with all that yumminess in the vicinity? Berries & chocolate are a fab macaron combo, and the panacotta looks so delicate and somehow like a snowy Christmas. All the best for 2011, my saucy sistah!

Hi Jamie - I'm in Southern California, and we didn't get a White Christmas, either. :P
Your treats looks beautiful. And I have to chuckle because I also use tracing paper underneath the parchment to create uniform-sized macarons. And here I thought I was being smart... :)
Happy New Year!

Yum! These look super yummy and your macarons are absolutely gorgeous! Perfect feet and so smooth :) Gorgeous!

10 Pants Every Woman Should Own
10 Pants Every Woman Should Own
Even if you're not a self-proclaimed "pants" girl, having these 10 essential styles in your wardrobe will ensure that when you do skip the skirt, you'll be comfortable and look fabulous. Not sure how to wear 'em? Consult our guide to the shoes every woman should own and you're halfway there.SEE MORE
Must-Have Pants: Fit-You-to-a-T Dark Jeans
Dark jeans with a uniform wash, like Zoe Saldana's here, are a no-brainer because you can wear them for day or evening and they go with everything in your closet. Instead of buying 50 random pairs, search for one that fits you in all the right places and buy a couple of those guys. Not the most exciting shopping trip, but trust us, you'll be glad you did.
Must-Have Pants: Nice Leggings
There are the leggings you wear when you get home from work, and then there are the leggings you can actually wear in public. If you're averse to being seen in such a body-conscious look, follow Anne Hathaway's lead and opt for legging jeans, which have a bit more structure. Pair them with tall boots and a knee-grazing coat and you'll be comfy without showing off every inch of your shape.
Must-Have Pants: Rugged Pants (Fit for a Lady)
Having a pair of cords, khakis or cargos in your wardrobe will prove useful when you want to go for more of a rustic vibe with your look. But that doesn't mean you can wear them only in the wilderness. As Charlize Theron proves, sometimes they're great for making sleek city blazers, boots and shades look a little more down-to-earth.
Must-Have Pants: Pants in a Bold or Bright Color
Choose the silhouette and material that suit your personal style and a color that complements your skin tone, and break these babies out when you really want to make a fashion statement. That said, they don't necessarily need to be worn as boldly as Rachel Bilson does here. A white button-down and a pair of black pumps are just fine too.
Must-Have Pants: Cocktail-Party Pants
Silk or crepe de chine pants that are cocktail-party-appropriate will also serve you well on evenings when it's too cold to wear a skirt, when you're in conservative company or when you just feel like mixing it up a bit. We love Blake Lively's daring high-waist pair, but feel free to play around with a silhouette to suit your dressy-top lineup and high-heel options.
Must-Have Pants: Boyfriend Jeans
Do we have to convince you that having a pair of loose, comfortable jeans in your wardrobe is a good idea? Just looking at this picture of Jennifer Aniston makes us want to change into something, well, slouchier. We're pretty sure we're not the only ones. Two words for those gals still looking for this must-have: vintage Levi's.
Must-Have Pants: Office-Appropriate Trousers
Never underestimate the power of slim ankle-length pants and a pair of classic pumps. If you work in a traditional office, this is an especially important combo to have on hand. As Cameron Diaz demonstrates, a neutral color and a not-too-tight fit are what keep this must-have looking professional and sophisticated.
Must-Have Pants: Printed or Patterned Pants
Why should your blouses and dresses have all the fun? Keep a pair of printed or patterned pants on hand to experiment with pattern mixing and give your solid-color tops a bit of instant jazzing up. We love this luxe menswear-inspired pair by J.Crew on Solange Knowles, but more feminine options, like florals and jacquards, also work.
Must-Have Pants: Wide-Leg Pants
Katie Holmes does have long stems, but those perfectly fitted wide-leg jeans certainly don't hurt if you're looking for a leg-lengthening style. Whether you opt for jeans or trousers is up to you; just make sure they fit like a glove up top and pool over your shoes down below. Break 'em out when you need to feel just a little bit more like a supermodel. Trust us, it works.
Must-Have Pants: Persona-Altering Pants
Every gal needs to make room in her wardrobe for fun, I-don't-know-why-I-love-them-I-just-do pieces. Leather skinnies (seen here on Emmanuelle Chriqui), sequined leggings and lace pants fall squarely into this category. It's OK to experiment with silhouette and fabric—just make sure your persona-altering pants get at least one thumbs-up from a nearby girlfriend or guy. You know, just to be sure.

Comments about Easy Spray 2-Turbine High Volume / Low Pressure Painter:
I have not had it very long, but I am impressed with the work I was able to do with. Even my wife was impressed, and she usually complains about my finishing.
I bought it to apply water based polyurethane on a log bed with lots of nooks and crannies. I practiced on a couple of floating birch shelves and fell in love with the finished product. Then I did the log bed, a harder project, and I am still in love with the results.
I would use it on a picnic table, but not on the deck itself, the cannister is too small.
I was using it with a semi thin material, not sure how well it would work with something thicker like paint.
Cleanup is a breeze, especially if you are using a water based product.

Region: United States of America

Petition Background (Preamble):
Please note the news item below, regarding Congressman Rohrabacher's Letter:
WASHINGTON, D.C. jULY 30, 2012: US Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) sent a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton urging Washington to back freedom for Azeris from Iran, TURAN's Washington DC correspondent was informed by Congressional sources.

1351 Westwood Blvd # 111
Los Angeles, CA 90024
August 20, 20012
Honorable Dana Rohrbacher
101 Main Street, Suite 380
Huntington Beach, CA 92648
RE: your letter to Sec Clinton 7-26-12
Dear representative Rohrbacher,
The Marze Por Gohar Party is disappointed and appalled by your recent letter to the United States Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, whereby you request that the American government aid separatists in Iran.
Dr. Larry Franklin
Former Iran Desk
Office of the Secretary of Defense
Thu 5/24/2012
Long Live "24th May" the 30th Anniversary of Freedom of the "City of Khoramshahr"!
Long Live the Memory and path of all Iranian soldiers, to all unknown heroes, who despite the lack of correct rulers, freed this Iranian city by just believing in their just cause, themselves and their Brothers in Arm! they will always be remembered!
"Iran Will never Die!"
Down With Islamic Republic
Long Live Iran
Due to the latest tension regarding the three Iranian islands and the Persian Gulf, the Iranian people once again showed that they are united when it comes to national territorial issues.
Since the islamic republic is not representing iranians, the Iranian people have many times used the social medias such as face book to react to political matters and express their feelings.
The official page of King Abdullah was shut down due to 250 000 received messages in support for the Iranian island and the Persian Gulf.
The number is confirmed by king Abdullah, the translation reads:
he Marze Por Gohar Party (MPG) will be hosting a booth at this year's annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, discussing the oppressive reality facing authors, journalists and academics in Iran, as well as the greater Human Rights violations faced by citizens.
Los Angeles, CA April 17, 2012 – The Marze Por Gohar Party (MPG) will be the lone voice for the authors silenced, assassinated and oppressed by the Islamic Regime in Iran, at this year's annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books.
According to Valerie Lincy who is the Project's Deputy Director and The editor and principal researcher for IranWatch.org which is published by the Wisconsin Project on Nuclear Arms Control, (Wisconsin Project is a private, non-profit, non-partisan organization in Washington, D.C which carries out research and public education designed to stop the spread of nuclear weapons, chemical/biological weapons and long-range missiles) , IRAN expands uranium enrichment to new site.
NEW YORK, Aug 31, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) on Wednesday applauded Finnish crane manufacturer Konecranes for ending its business in Iran. Konecranes is the fifth international crane manufacturer to pull out of Iran in response to UANI's Cranes Campaign.
On August 18, UANI publicly called on Konecranes to end its Iran business. In response, Konecranes informed UANI that it had made the decision to "withdraw from the Iranian market" and is now "systematically refus[ing] all opportunities to sell new equipment and services to the country."

Thursday, July 10, 2014
Here are my final thoughts on the World Cup.
I figure its worth another 600 or so words to talk about soccer because it will be four years before I touch on the subject again and a lot will have happened between now and then.
Obama wont be president anymore.
Hillary, or maybe Jeb, will be thinking about their second term.
All the Avengers movies will have come and gone, and the Batman vs. Superman movie will have finally been released on July 4, 2018.
Derek Jeter will have long retired. Chipper Jones will be in the Hall of Fame and Pete Rose will still be locked out.
LeBron James will be opting out of another big contract to test the free agent market for a third time, this time spurning the LA Lakers for maybe the Knicks or the Celtics.
Maybe this time theyll do a Bachelor summmer series NBA style where all 32 NBA teams court LeBron and those who get to stay on through next week are given a championship ring rather than a rose.
That would make for some good summer TV.
The Yankees and Red Sox will still hate each other and the Chicago Cubs will still be in last place.
And Ill be pushing 60.
Oh, boy.
I watched several World Cup matches this time. I still dont have a clue whats going on but I watched. I watched the U.S. lose to Portugal in the elimination round and still advance to the final 16.
Soccer is the only sport where you lose and not go home.
I watched Switzerland play Argentina to a nil-nil draw for 116 minutes. I stepped away from the TV, and hadnt even make it to the top of the stairs when I hear: GOOOAAAALLLLL!
I figured since I was already this far along, Id go ahead and finish the pit stop and catch the highlights on Sportscenter, which I should have done in the first place and saved myself the nearly two-hour aggravation.
I heard the announcer say something like, The queue is going to be awfully long for those waiting to second guess the USA on this game, and thought this was the first time Id ever heard the word queue used to describe action in a sporting event.
I was also getting used to the whole nil-nil terminology and counting backward from 00:00 to 90:00 didnt seem so weird, nor the fact that once I got to 90:00 the game still wasnt over because the referee added stoppage time. Once the whistle blew on that, if there still wasnt any score we would proceed to 30 minutes of riveting extra time. I counted watching more than five hours of World Cup only to miss about a minute and a half of real live action. Soccer is like a middle school dance... nobody scores.
So Im almost 60 now. And I havent seen a soccer match in four years. I still have a couple questions, though.
For one, why do they spell Brazil with an S, and since when did they call Greece Helanos?

MADISON - The Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force is dedicated to finding and prosecuting child predators on the web. Headed by the Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation, the task force combines the efforts of law enforcement departments around the state in order to deal with this problem more effectively.
Recent additions to the group include the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office and the Lomira Police Department.

"In the past decade, Wisconsin's ICAC Task Force and Affiliate Agencies have arrested 728 suspects, executed 1,017 search warrants, and rescued countless numbers of children throughout the state," said Van Hollen.
According to Van Hollen, there are over 22,304 internet protocol addresses in Wisconsin containing and offering to distribute known images of child pornography. One in seven children are asked online to engage in sexual activities, sexual talk, or provide personal sexual information.
Van Hollen has placed a priority on law enforcement's proactive response to the growing problem of internet crimes against children. To that end, Van Hollen has directed a 67% increase in the number of special agents assigned to the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force within the Division of Criminal Investigation.
In addition to expanding investigative capacity internally, Van Hollen and the Department of Justice have continued to add additional local affiliates, such as those listed above, to the Wisconsin ICAC Task Force. The number of local law enforcement partners to the Department of Justice's ICAC Task Force has increased to 151 since Attorney General Van Hollen took office. You can access a list of affiliates at http://www.doj.state.wi.us/dci/icac/afflist.asp
"Let internet predators take note. Our commitment is unceasing. We will identify you, arrest you, and take you off the street; we will follow you to every area of the internet, no matter where you try to hide; and we will work together in law enforcement to stay one step ahead of you." Said Van Hollen.

City Council agrees to joint meeting with county board
The Sanford City Council has agreed to a request by the Lee County Board of Commissioners to a joint meeting to discuss a possible change in the sales tax distribution and several interlocal agreements.
During the Sanford City Council Law and Finance Committee meeting Wednesday, council members requested City Manager Hal Hegwer to negotiate a day for the joint meeting to be scheduled sometime during the first week of February.
"I would certainly like a place where the public can have full access and, if possible, television access," said Sanford City Councilman Samuel Gaskins. "When we are having this discussion, everyone should be informed."
At the Lee County Board of Commissioners' meeting Monday, Broadway town officials requested a meeting between the two boards to discuss the possibility of the county changing the sales tax distribution. The county agreed to a meeting with Broadway and, also, requested a meeting with Sanford.
City Council members also discussed the county's request to end several interlocal agreements, including the joint planning department, tax collections department and GIS.
According to city documents, the costs for Sanford to collect ad valorem taxes is $71,000 to start and $200,000 in yearly recurring expenses.
Hegwer said if the city wished to pursue its own tax collection, it would not be feasible for the upcoming fiscal year, and the county would need be flexible for the upcoming year as it transitioned. He said he hoped the city would be the same way if the county chose to follow through with its own planning department.
Council members agreed to continue the discussion during their upcoming meeting, scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday at City Hall located at 225 E. Weatherspoon St.
In other matters, Council considered:
* Changes to the sewer use ordinance. Sanford Public Works City Engineer Paul Weeks said the revisions are mostly housekeeping items, like changing definitions to comply with recently updated national and state regulations.
* Transferring $2,124 in appropriations for the Wagon Trail Road Waterline Extension project. The funds would be repaid to the city by the Wagon Trail Road residents who hook up to the waterline.
* A resolution to support and authorize the city's application for a state Parks and Recreation Trust Funds grant for an extension of the greenway. Sanford-Lee County Planning Director Bob Bridwell said the proposed 2.5-mile extension would connect the southern trail in Kiwanis Park to Central Carolina Hospital to expand on the success of the park and act as a therapeutic trail for hospital patients. The grant would require a 50 percent local match.
* Renewing or changing banking services. The city sent out requests for bids to all local bank branches, with four banks responding. First Citizens Bank has the lowest bid and is the recommended choice because of a lower price. First Citizens can offer a majority of the services requested, said Sanford Finance Director Melissa Cardinali.

The Hillsville Rescue Squad, which has been inactive since 2006, took the last step in dissolving as a corporation on March 14 by dispensing all its monetary assets in the forms of grants to 12 community organizations.
"The rescue squad was around a long time, and it helped a lot of people. It's sad it's gone," said Larry South, the squad's president, prior to the presentation of grant checks. "I hope this money helps more folks."
Receiving grants of $3,000 each were the Carroll County Christmas Fund, Carroll County Chamber of Commerce, Carroll Wellness Center, Galax Volunteer Fire Department, Gospel Light Christian Camp, Hale-Wilkinson-Care Home Foundation, Hope House, Hillsville Lions Club, Tri-area Pregnancy Resource Center, Twin County Humane Society, Twin County Prevention Coalition and Hillsville VFW.
In order to receive a grant, an organization had to be an incorporated non-profit that serves the immediate Hillsville area. Grant proposals were judged by members of the rescue squad and the squad's ladies auxiliary.
A drawing was then held for the remaining $6.30 in rescue squad assets. The Hale-Wilkinson-Carter Home Foundation was the winner. Elizabeth Huff, the organization's president, said the grant money would be used to help pay for painting of the third-floor rooms.
"It'll cost us about $5,000 to get it all done, but this will pay to get part of it done," said Huff.
Bill Webb, president of the Hillsville Lions Club called the grant "a tremendous boost" to the Lions Eye Clinic of the Twin Counties. The clinic serves needy citizens who are without medical insurance by providing vision testing and a written prescription, as well as financial help in obtaining glasses. The clinic is a joint operating of the Lions Clubs in Hillsville, Galax, Fries and Independence.
"We need $15,000 to purchase two new pieces of eye scanning equipment, and this will put us within $2,000 to $2,500 of our goal," said Webb.
Presently, the eye clinic provides scanning for just kindergarten through second grade, but the new scanning equipment will allow the clinic to broaden its reach.
"The new equipment will allow us to do kindergarten through all ages," noted Webb.
Dennis Ward, who has been working with the Carroll County Christmas Fund since 1997 said, "We're really excited to get the money and appreciate it very much."
Ward said the fund delivered 630 food boxes last year. In addition, there are toys for children, a Bible furnished by the Gideon's and coats furnished by different organizations, which the fund cleans before giving them to needy citizens.
"We just try to make Christmas brighter for the less fortunate, and this will be a tremendous help," he said.
All boxes of food, toys and other items go into families in Carroll County.
According to Betty Sutton of the Twin County Humane Society their grant will be used for educational programs in Carroll County schools, while Dawn Holshouser, vice president of the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce, said what program will benefit from their grant hasn't been determined.

Hope's concerned about Ciara, Jordan has a heart to heart talk with Maxine, and JJ worries that Jenn will move on with another guy.
At the Horton's, JJ overhears Jenn and Abby agreeing that her new dress is perfect for her date with Liam. Jenn apologizes for Abby eating all of the bacon when he joins them and rushes out. He asks Abby what she's thinking. She's sorry she ate the bacon but he exclaims it's not about the bacon. When Jenn comes back for something, JJ mentions it's great that Victor and Maggie worked things out. She agrees before leaving. Abby's confused and JJ chastises her for allowing Jenn to think it's okay to go out with 'that jerk'. Abby's surprised he wants Jenn to get back together with Daniel. He asks Abby how she ever got the courage to come clean when she screwed up. It wasn't courage; it just worked itself out in the end and she wishes she never lied. He's about to tell her something when Theo calls her.
Brady finishes ordering drugs and is surprised when Maggie returns home with Victor. He warns Brady that they need to be on their best behavior. Alone, Maggie explains her conditions that Victor had to apologize to Eric and Marlena. He's done one of the two. Brady thinks there's no need for him to apologize to Marlena if she's already moved back in. Maggie thinks Victor will do the right thing. She asks Brady if he's alright. As a recovering addict she clearly sees the signs that something's wrong and thinks they should go to a meeting together. He snaps, "No," and then apologizes. He isn't going to meetings.
Theresa runs by the nurses' station and asks Anne to improvise. Daniel arrives and Anne jokes that he's already on to his next conquest when he gets off the phone with 'Donna' and asks how many illegitimate children he plans to have. Theresa rushes over and says, "Stop it Anne…this man saved my life." Anne snaps at Theresa and storms off. Theresa admits Anne stresses her out and wishes she had someone to talk to. Victor interrupts. Privately, he thanks Daniel for getting him to do the right thing to get Maggie back. Elsewhere, Maxine delivers a package to Jordan's office. It looks like it's from the fancy boutique in the square. Jordan thinks it's inappropriate since Rafe was her patient. Maxine doesn't judge as Jordan explains that her thing with Rafe is complicated. Maxine thinks she's scared not knowing if Rafe feels gratitude or something more. Meanwhile, Anne explains how Victor is rich to Theresa in the break room. Theresa decides to take it up a notch. She unbuttons her blouse to snag Daniel. Jenn sees her return to the nurses' station and request a chat with Daniel anytime, anyplace. He leaves and she approaches Jenn to thank her for the invitation to the family Christmas. She reiterates that she and Daniel are just friends. Jenn doesn't care and reminds her to stay away from JJ. Alone, Theresa knows it's time to hurt Jenn more.
Hope's pleased at Rafe's progress when he opens the door standing up at his apartment. She's grateful when he takes the time to listen to Ciara. She doesn't know if Ciara is really okay and wouldn't do what Bo is doing to her. Ciara comes out modeling her recital outfit and invites Rafe. Jordan arrives to get something straight about his gift and Hope and Ciara leave. He wants Jordan to stop talking and open the present. She doesn't take orders and is certain this is wrong. He's frustrated that she's still talking and she decides to open it. She does and finds a t-shirt with "Coach" written on the front. It's obviously not from the boutique. He's sorry she wasn't there for Christmas so he could put the mistletoe to use. They're not aware of it having an expiration date and kiss until she's paged. He's glad they've cleared up that he's no longer her patient and can't wait for her to return. She leaves as he promises to keep the mistletoe up for a while.
Jenn turns down Hope's invitation to lunch at the hospital and introduces Liam. He steps away to reschedule a meeting so he can keep their date and Hope shares how cute she thinks he is. Jenn's not certain about dating again and worries how some people don't understand the concept of 'just friends'.
Brady picks up drugs from his dealer in the park and refuses his offer for something stronger. Daniel catches up to him before he leaves and asks what he's doing. Brady claims he wasn't doing anything but Daniel accuses him of lying. He saw everything.
Theresa visits JJ at home. She's come to set him free.

I'd do the rematch the next fight," UFC President Dana White on Monday told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "Guy hasn't lost in the UFC ever, has beat everybody. He loses that fight, he's the guy for a rematch if he wants it."
Silva (33-4 MMA, 16-0 UFC), who remains undefeated after 16 appearances in the octagon, remains a 2-to-1 favorite to beat the undefeated Weidman (9-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC), who has one less fight on his resume than the champ does title defenses. Should "The Spider" continue to reign and defend his belt for the 11th time, White said a superfight could be next.
That would mean Silva would face light heavyweight champ Jon Jones or welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre. White said the Brazilian champ hasn't cooled on a meeting with St-Pierre, as he indicated during a conference call this past week in support of Saturday's pay-per-view event at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena.
"He's on board to fight either one of them," said the executive.
Of course, both Silva and St-Pierre aren't as hip to the idea, at least publicly. They've been linked to a fight talked about for more than four years, and still, it has yet to materialize.
In the latest round of news to dispel hopes, St-Pierre said he didn't want to move up in weight and shifted focus to Johny Hendricks, whom he'll fight in November. Silva said St-Pierre "had his chance" to make the fight happen and turned it down.
Yet White continues to insist the fight isn't off the table, adding that he's warmed to the idea of a catchweight meeting at 180 pounds, where neither fighter's title would be on the line. (St-Pierre previously has said he would not return to welterweight if he went to 185 to challenge Silva.)
In any event, Silva's motivation to take either matchup isn't just about glory, said White. At 38 years old, Silva has a new 10-fight contract that would take him well into his 40s. There's a finite amount of time he has to capitalize on his earning power, and St-Pierre and Jones promise the shortest distance to the biggest payouts of his career.
"Fights that don't matter don't make money," White said. "If he makes it to 10, which if he makes it to 10, nobody better deny that he's the f--king greatest of all time, but he wants big fights that are going to make money. He wants fights that are going to cement his legacy.
"None of them like to say in public, they care about making money, too."

You need an original gamecube or wii game in the drive. Some games will work discless, some won't.
Do you need the Genuine game for this to work? I saw in I believe it was the second post in his/her instructions they said to put in the genuine disc.
I am new here and this is my first time trying these things so please try not to get furious at me.

You misunderstand, ANY original disc will work with any game. I use Super Paper Mario Wii to boot my gamecube games.
Wii System Menu X(4.1u)-CFG USBLoader 7.0, D2X cIOS Pack
Thanks for the warning...God forbid something goes wrong, my kids would eat me up like jungle cannibals!!(Warning: This will replace your currently existing mIOS and therefore you will not be able to play [COLOR=#009900 !important]retail[/COLOR]Gamecube game. To play these again, you must install MIOS v10 which overwrites the DIOS MIOS wad.)
For those that did not read this detail...tsk, tsk tsk, shame for not reading enough.
Perhaps you can expand on how to recover mIOS v10 to be able to play retail GC discs again.
Thanks for the guide!
Yay, I'm glad I could help! I was searching the net for a download of MIOS v10 but I couldn't find it. I could only find a custom MIOS used for playing GC disc backups. If anyone has any links, I would appreciate it.
But perhaps installing the custom MIOS will work just as well.
Last edited by cwjakesteel; 07-07-2012 at 03:45 PM. Reason: Responding to two people.
I have been trying to do this for a few hours now and I still cannot get it to work it seems.
I have followed the instructions that are posted on the first page, but for some reason the USB loader does not want to see my USB. It only sees the SD and when i need to change paths there is only SD there.
And when i tried it a different way the GC game i was trying to launch would just freeze in the launchers logo.

The Town of Elkin purchased the Smith Phillips property at 257 Standard St. in Downtown Elkin in August and is now embarking on the planning and public input stage for development.
The Town purchased the property with the intention of transforming it into a community and visitor attraction space.
The Town will be hosting public planning and input sessions Dec. 11 and Dec. 12 at The Elkin Center, located at 1461 North Bridge St.
"To enhance the feedback and discussion during the December 11th and 12th sessions, we hope people will complete the survey," said Leslie Schlender, economic development director for the Town of Elkin.
The survey is eight questions long and can be accessed at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/X387TCZ.
Sessions will run all day on Dec. 11 and half a day on Dec. 12 and the public is strongly encouraged to attend. The schedule for the planning sessions at The Elkin Center is as follows:
Sign in and meet and greet will begin at 11 a.m. on Dec. 11. Session one will be from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. and will cover key findings in Elkin marketplace surveys and how to engage smart growth and sustainable design.
The second session on the 11th will be from 1:45 p.m. until 4:30 p.m. and will allow a community discussion of design ideas. This session will be repeated from 6:30 p.m. until 8 p.m. These forums will be exploring development concepts, building design, site uses and characteristics, access and linkages within the Elkin community.
Both lunch and evening sessions on Dec. 11 are considered crucial sessions, according to Schlender.
Dec. 2 sessions will begin at 10 a.m. and will review the responses gathered in the previous day's sessions and ways to develop them.
Open House will then be from noon until 1:30 p.m. for people who may not have been able to attend the previous sessions. The Open House will offer individuals to view images, ask questions, share comments and hear a presentation on the workshop at 12:30 p.m.
Laura Gaylord, Elkin's main street and community manager, said the sessions will provide a conceptual master plan for the site and surrounding areas including downtown Elkin, local parks. She also said the sessions will focus heavily on the Elkin Valley Trails.

- Os cidadãos mundiais entre a liberdade e a segurança (2009)
- O 11 de setembro acelerou o desenvolvimento de uma arquitetura transnacional de segurança que intervém profundamente nas liberdades civis individuais, tanto nos direitos básicos dos cidadãos dos Estados como nos direitos humanos dos cidadãos mundiais. O artigo delineia essa arquitetura, mostra como ela dissolve as categorias jurídicas tradicionais que preservam a liberdade e discute por que hoje se aceita amplamente a prioridade da segurança sobre a liberdade.
- John Gray and the implications of value pluralism for legal philosophy (2012)
- John Gray is the thinker who has reconstructed the main tenets of ethical pluralism inherent in the work of its initiator - Isaiah Berlin - and pointed to its consequences for political philosophy. In particular he singled out three levels of conflict in ethics identifiable in Berlin's writings: among the ultimate values belonging to the same morality or code of conduct, among whole ways or styles of life and within goods or values which are themselves internally complex and inherently pluralistic. It is the third, internal kind of conflict that proves to be the richest in implications.Because it undermines a whole constellation of contemporary liberal doctrines informed by the Kantian-Lockean tradition that conform to the legal paradigm. From the pluralist perspective such monumental theories (e.g. those of Rawls or Dworkin) are no longer sustainable due to the recognition that no ultimate value is immune to the phenomenon of incommensurability. Thus, irresolvable conflicts may also break out within the given regulative value. Confronting ethical pluralism with general reflection on law has mostly negative consequences. Nevertheless, the incommensurability thesis sheds considerable light on certain legal disputes. This claim will be illustrated by interpreting from the pluralist perspective the controversy over the verdict by the European Tribunal of Human Rights of 3 November 2010 concerning hanging crosses in classrooms.
- The justification of homeschooling vis-a-vis the european human rights system (2012)
- The very idea of the European Convention on Human Rights is to bring the laws of contracting states into line with fundamental human rights principles. Where the Convention is not explicit, the Court should never rule restrictively so as to reduce the scope of a general right. In the case of homeschooling, the Convention sets forth the general principle that "the state shall respect the right of parents to ensure such education and teaching in conformity with their own religious and philosophical convictions." It must not, therefore, allow a contracting state to eliminate a means of achieving this desired by parents—unless the state can show that the means in question is ineffective.
- Human rights and the law: the unbreachable gap between the ethics of justice and the efficacy of law (2012)
- This paper explores the structure of justice as the condition of ethical, inter-subjective responsibility. Taking a Levinasian perspective, this is a responsibility borne by the individual subject in a pre-foundational, proto-social proximity with the other human subject, which takes precedence over the interests of the self. From this specific post-humanist perspective, human rights are not the restrictive rights of individual self-will, as expressed in our contemporary legal human rights discourse. Rights do not amount to the prioritisation of the so-called politico-legal equality of the individual citizen-subject animated by the universality of the dignity of autonomous, reasoned intentionality. Rather, rights enlivened by proximity invert this discourse and signify, first and foremost, rights for the other, with the ethical burden of responsibility towards the other.
- Human rights and justice in a multicultural world (2012)
- This paper intends to discuss some contemporary issues on human rights and democracy related to the concept of justice. Is the set of individual rights that is assumed by western democracies really universal? If so, how are they supposed to be interpreted? On the other side if I take into account the "other" and pluralism in a serious way how to conciliate different concepts of justice? Taking Jacques Derrida's approach of justice as its standpoint this paper aims to stress the difficulty to achieve a unique concept of justice as well as to think justice in the sphere of international law and the problem of ensuring human rights in the international order. Western democracies has becoming more and more multiethnic and multicultural and the set of rights that is at the center of the legal order has to be interpreted in a dialogical sense, one that assumes difference and plurality as its starting point. The plurality of conceptions of the good and the impossibility of establishing a unique concept of justice demands the re-creation of a democratic sphere where the dissent and the conflict could be experienced and, at the same time, the legal order needs to ensure individual and group rights against majority's dictatorship. The main goal of this paper is to re-think the interpretation of law in a multicultural scenario in which it is not possible to have only one criteria of justice and difference and pluralism are envisaged are values themselves.
- What is become of the rights of men? : are you the only men who have rights? ; moral contractarianism and the legitimation of universal human rights (2012)
- In this article I advance an account of human rights as individual claims that can be justified within the conceptual framework of social contract theories. The contractarian approach at issue here aims, initially, at a justification of morality at large, and then at the specific domain of morality which contains human rights concepts. The contractarian approach to human rights has to deal with the problem of universality, i.e. how can human rights be 'universal'? I deal with this problem by examining the relationship between moral dispositions and what I call 'diffuse legal structure'.

Barbara Bui Spring 2013
When it comes to sleek and cool, Barbara Bui knows exactly how to deliver. For Spring 2013, the designer showed a bevy of cool-girl looks with lots of leather, sharp blazers, and sheer details. Black and blue leather pieces were dominant throughout the show, with a leather-on-leather look taking the cake for most badass. Leather pants, maxi skirts, minidresses, and blouses all exuded major toughness, while contrastingly soft sheer blouses and dresses were more fluid. Embellishments, asymmetrical hemlines, and leather-on-chiffon were standout details. As for the color palette, black, white, and blue were the main hues, but a few colorful tribal-inspired jackets, dresses, shorts, and scarves made for a bold and refreshing finish.
