During my childhood summers, my parents never had to tell me to get out of the house. As soon as the sun was up, I was out of the house hanging out with friends, building tree forts, and playing sports.
While I'm only 24, it seems like a lot has changed since my childhood. With Xbox 360s, Playstation 3s, and more gaming consoles than you can think of, people just don't enjoy the great outdoors like they used to. After making a comment like that, I feel much older than I am, but nonetheless, I think it's true.
We're halfway into June and the weather has been exceptional. With most kids finishing their final days of school, there's no better time to enjoy the great outdoors than now! Whether you're into sports, camping, or hanging out at the beach, there's something for everyone.
Here is a list of some of the best outdoor activities for people of all ages:
1. Beach
This is one of my favorite things to do during the summer. All you need is a hot day, bathing suit and a towel. It's a great place to go with a family or a group of friends. Many beaches have concession stands set up in particular areas, although I usually just bring a cooler packed with food and drinks for the day. There's really nothing more relaxing than a day at the beach in my opinion.
2. Golf
This is another of my favorite hobbies. Whether you get a membership at a particular course, or enjoy playing at a different course every time, golf is a game you can play the rest of your life. After a tough day at work, there's no place I'd rather be than the golf course.
3. Running/Walking/Rollerblading
Another one of my favorites. On second thought, everything on this list could be grouped among things I enjoy doing. While it can get quite hot during the summer, a nice run/walk/rollerblading session to start the day in the morning (or end the day at night) is a good form of exercise.
4. Camping
For the outdoorsman, it doesn't get much better than a camping trip. If you really want to rough it, a tent is the way to go, although campers are another popular option. Even though my camping experience isn't what you'd call normal (my dad once set up a tent in our backyard for my brother, sister and I that had a TV with full cable), camping is something the entire family can enjoy.
5. Theme Park
While this may require some travel, for the roller coaster lover in your family, this could be their highlight of the summer. Michigan's Adventure and Cedar Point are two popular destinations that offer special deals for families.
6. Attend a Sporting Event
Come down to the D and cheer on the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. The atmosphere is great and you can find reasonably priced tickets on stubhub. I still remember my first Tigers game at the old Tiger Stadium. For a young kid, their first ball game will be a memory that will stick with them forever.
7. Fly Kites
This is a good form of cheap entertainment that kids love to do. All you need is a kite and an open field (and maybe a little wind). Looking back, it's hard to believe that flying a kite could entertain me for hours on end when I was a kid. But it did. Sometimes it's the little things in life.
8. Outdoor Games
You're never too old for hide and seek. If you have kids, it's the perfect game to play outside, around the house. Call me immature, but I still enjoy a good water balloon fight.
For a little older age group, horseshoes or bocce ball are other options.
9. Start a Lemonade Stand
I remember creating many of these as a kid. It's a good way for kids to learn the value of money while also a fun way to interact with other young kids in the neighborhood.
10. Bonfires
There's no better way to end the night than a good bonfire. It seems like every weekend of my childhood we would have a bonfire with a lot of people from the neighborhood stopping by. A decade later, bonfires are still one of my favorite outdoor activities.
Put away the 360 controllers! Turn off the TV! Get out of bed! Go outside!
Before you know it, the warm summer weather will be replaced with snow and subfreezing temps. Get outside and enjoy it while it lasts!

Very cool session. The best practices section and the composition modes were really clear and informative. Thanks!
Is it just me or is the music drowning out the speakers for everybody?
<edit>Never mind, it thankfully stops after the first few minutes! Phew!</edit>
Somebody needs to fix the X-UA-Compatible META tag specification for the fishbowl demo. Right now it says
content="IE10"and it should probably say
content="IE=10". As it is, it causes the browser to render in IE7 compatibility mode and the demo, well, doesn't work (unless you hit F12 and manually switch document mode to IE10 standards mode)!
@davewill: As others have indicated I think Erik wasn't talking about being able to define inline interfaces as much as being able to create inline implementations. Imagine a method call that requires an IFoo object and being able to define an implementation and pass an instance all in a single code block. Here's some fantasy C#:
obj.DoThat( new IFoo { public int doA() { return 1; } public int doB() { return 2; } });
Thanks for discussing my CodeProject article on writing a sensor driver for the Nintendo Wiimote for Windows 7 on your show. Just wanted to clarify that I used Brian Peek's WiimoteLib implementation to figure out how to correctly communicate with the Wiimote (i.e. what bits to send and how to parse what it sends back), but the driver doesn't actually call out to the WiimoteLib, i.e. there is no runtime dependency on the WiimoteLib. The driver is a completely native UMDF driver. Thanks!

Re: Problem with movement between lens and body
My ZD150 F/2 is my only lens that has that shifting between the body & lens you are talking about. I've use the combo (E5 + 150) close to two years now w/o any issues whatsoever. As others have stated, I really don't think it is anything to worry about.
If you do however look into getting the shifting resolved, be sure to let us know how much trouble it was to do so. I've learned to live with the "issue" but wouldn't mind having that solid feel you talked about between the body & lens.

Breaking the number one rule
Never go back. That's our number one rule. Even when we left the bikes in the North of Fakarava, we managed to get them back without going back. Yet, here we are back in Tahiti, trying to get our package. We had a fantastic time in Mo'orea with Luna and Goody and we finally said goodbye to Goody, though they may not be going back to SA after all!! They have headed up to Bora Bora, whilst Luna and I made our way back to Tahiti. Mark and I decided that we would go straight from Tahiti to Tonga, but there is a 'squash zone' in the Cook islands at the moment; two high pressure systems close together which squashes the wind and strengthens it, so we may have to wait a couple of days before we head off. We had a nice little show from some whales on the way back. It's now 12 October and there's no sign of the package. We know it's in Tahiti - it's been here since 3 October, but we cannot get our hands on it - if it's not here by tomorrow we are going. Although we need the parcel, what can we do? We have been told we have to have patience. We've been here over a month. We've been patient for the last week. But now we have to go. So, tomorrow we'll head off to sea. It is about 1500nms so will take us about 12-15 days. Next stop Tonga.
10/07/2011, Mo'orea
OK, so we have been swimming with dolphins, check, humpback whales, check, sharks, check and now we can add to the list stingrays. Not quite out in the wilds of the Pacific, but in Mo'orea, where the hotel daily feeds them and so they are pretty much tame and all over you if you want a close encounter. After negotiating the shallow water channel between our yachts and the motu (tiny island) where they are, we were in no doubt as to the location of the rays, it being ambushed by 3 boat loads of cruise-shippers and honeymooners, all slightly pink in matching swim wear (I mean top and bottoms, not all of them in the same swim suit!) The Goody, Luna, and Pegasus children jump right in, with the instruction from Mia that if the black tipped reef sharks swim towards you, don't worry, just swim towards them and they'll swim off, they head straight to the centre of the feeding rays. Dirk (aged 2) wasn't too impressed however and I was the first to offer to go back to the dinghy with him and work on his two word level language skills (that'll be $60 please!!) "Big shark" "two rays" "mummy's gone" "Mia's hat" etc etc.
In the afternoon, I once again kidnapped the two mums (as I did in Martinique with Samba and Eol) and whisked them off for a hike up to Belvedere point, a four hour round trip. The rain didn't deter us, whilst we stomped up the hill and had a nice girly chat with no kids. A beautiful view rewarded us from the top, before we had to head back before it got too dark.
We take it in turns to cook on each boat and are making the most of Goody being here when they have just sprung it on us that they have to fly back to South Africa for 3 months in 10 days time, much to my (and Jacolette's) disappointment. I think the parcel has now been cleared by customs now ready for collection (though my French is not so good when someone speaks quickly on an answerphone) so we'll probably return back to Tahiti in the next couple of days and then be ready to make our onwards journey, though we'll be sad to leave French Polynesia.
10/05/2011, Papeete, Tahiti
The package didn't arrive. Doh. The tracker on the USPS website says arrived, but we don't know where it is. So, Mark and I decided to come into Papeete as we still needed to check out (Mark arrived at 3.30pm yesterday, so of course they were closed already.) So we are alongside the town pontoon, which has security gates. When we went to check out, the man said if we didn't use electricity and we left by 10am, we could stay for free which was very nice, so we had Dan and Perrine round for dinner to say thank you for being so fantastic whilst we've been here. Lochy and Mia were running up and down the dock with some French kids from the boat next door. They still haven't mastered French yet, but they were playing battles with big sticks and remarkably, they denied me the pleasure of saying "I told you so" after I had warned them that it would all end in tears, probably Lochy's. I was secretly hoping they wold knock Lochy's front teeth out, which are now protruding at such an angle that we are going to Have to do something about them, like tie a string between them and the pontoon whilst we drive off. Lochy tried extra hard to pull them out in the bank as I had suggested he may get paid double by the tooth fairy if he loses them in a bank, but he has never been one for pain, so there they remain, wobbly and at right angles to his mouth! We got some NZ dollars in the bank, because I've been doing my homework on Nuie and it turns out you can't use a bankcard in the shops and there is no ATM on the island. No flies on me. So, today (Wed) we are off to Moorea with Goody and Luna also delayed due to deliveries and engines. And maybe this afternoon, we'll go to a motu where they feed stingrays and finally see some rays in action.
10/03/2011, Papeete, Tahiti
I've collected all the seeds and pulses and popcorn and rice in one box because I know that once we are in NZ we'll have it confiscated. So when, yesterday morning, I went to said box to get dried chickpeas to soak, I was gutted - and a little disgusted - to find them crawling with weevils. So the whole of yesterday morning consisted of going through ALL of our provisions to check how much had been affected. Luckily, we keep most of our provisions in plastic boxes with sealed lids so it was actually only one box that was affected. Also, it was unlikely, despite my best intentions, that we would be able to have got through all of our dried beans and peas. Our advice to potential family cruisers? If you didn't pre-plan your dinners with dried beans the day before at home, you're unlikely to do so at sea. We'll be sticking to the cans from now on.
On the positive side, I now have a completely up to date provisions list and a very clean under bunk storage space. And our salad cream stock was unaffected, thank the Lord!
At lunchtime yesterday, Mia started to complain that she wasn't feeling very well and we realised that, for the first time on our trip, she was feeling seasick at anchorage. It was REALLY swelly, and I was quite glad to take the kids to shore and spend the afternoon chilling out around the marina with Luna and Goody. There's been a strong wind for the past couple of days and you can see the surf crashing over the outer reef. However, in the last couple of hours, all is calm again which is good for our stomachs but not so good for the batteries which really benefited from the extra wind power.
Tomorrow, we will check out of Tahiti, collect final packages, fill up with water and gas, lightly provision (don't want to break the bank!) and Tuesday will see Luna, Goody and us off to Moorea.

Old dog new tricks
I have a confession to make. I love snowboarding, I got a kick out of jumping off a bridge attached to a bungee in my younger days, I've even jumped out of a plane and been ice climbing. I can climb the mast mid-ocean and I can give birth using hypnosis. In other words, I'm not a wuss. But SCUBA diving has just never appealed to me. You're just not supposed to breathe under water. I can snorkel until the rays come home, so long as it's not cold, just don't ask me to duck dive.
So after the obligatory heated discussion with Mark last night in which I accused him of bullying me into doing something I wasn't ready to do and him retorting that he knew I'd be like this the night before, picking up the phone to cancel, me replying we can't let Perrine down, I sulked off to bed at about 7pm. I even popped over to Dan's this morning to ask how much trouble I'd get into if I cancelled at such short notice (to which the reply was LOTS) There was no getting out of it. I was going to SCUBA dive today.
I set up the kids with their school work this morning and get all my stuff together. Mark drives me over to the dive school in the dinghy and I don't even say goodbye, because I'm still annoyed with him and if truth be known, pooping my pants. I've obviously already unconsciously divorced Mark by accidentally giving my maiden name in checking in. But we don't have a Catherine Lambert. The other guest smiles and says that his wife is still getting used to using his name - they're on their honeymoon. I didn't tell him we'd been married for 9 years.
And then, we're on the dive boat and Perrine is reassuring me that she will do everything for me, all I have to do is breathe and pop my ears. I put my two wetsuits on (OK, so I am wuss sometimes) and jump into the water, getting my BCD on. Perrine is a great instructor; taking everything at my pace, so calm all the time, not even flinching when I burst into tears twice and curse Mark for putting me into this situation. Yes, really. I hate not being good at something, but every time I went under the water I had an irrepressible urge to get to the surface of the water again. A bit like the roofer who can't bring himself to bungee - he's spent his whole life clinging on, so he can't let go.
This is ridiculous. I'm a hypnotherapist. I work with people's fears. If I can't work on my own, then what does that make me? So I have a word with myself and we start again. And this time I go down - OK, only 6 metres, but nevertheless, I am actually submerged and I can pop my ears and the fish are amazing and I can totally appreciate why people love diving. Perrine smiles at me but I hope she doesn't expect a smile in return; that would involve a whole other thought process and I can't multi-task right now. Does it make me want to dive more? I'm not sure. But I'll be happy to live vicariously through my children who can't wait to be old enough to SCUBA. Mark tells me how proud he is of me and I'm proud of me too. But I haven't quite forgiven him yet.
09/29/2011, Papeete, Tahiti
Thankfully, we have received 2 of the 4 packages on which we are waiting so it looks like we might be leaving Sunday or Monday for.....well, we haven't got THAT far yet!
Mark has been enjoying his first forays into the underwater world of SCUBA - what better place to learn where the water is so warm he didn't need a wetsuit and there are tropical fish everywhere! Unbeknownst to me, he has also booked an introductory dive for me tomorrow so I'll give you an update. Lochy and Mia can't wait for them to reach the minimum age so they can SCUBA too - probably after NZ during our next South Pacific season.
We've been focusing on school in the mornings - Johannes from Goody has been joining us which has helped his and our kid's attitude to school - nothing like a bit of competition! For PE, we joined Goody and Luna for a game of beach volley ball just along the road from the marina which was completely tiring for the adults - well, me anyway! Mia has been making herself another skirt and Lochy has been mastering his magic kit we bought from Jersey and have only just re-discovered. We also re-discovered our game of Cluedo I had put away because the kids were too young when we left and we had a fun evening, once Lochy learnt not to say for example, "So, it's not the candlestick then" every time he saw a card! Mia asked if we could play it every night, but I'm not sure Mark and my patience could last for much longer than once a month! At least it wasn't monopoly. No thank you, we don't need monopoly on the boat - perish the thought!

A group of Roma that had arrived in Landen, Belgium on Sunday were blasted out of a campsite by a local mayor.
They had agreed with a landowner to park 14 caravans at the site, approximately 50 km (30 miles) east of the Belgian capital of Brussels, until Tuesday, according to mayor Gino Debroux.
Mr Debroux told Reuters by telephone: "since then, they've said they won't leave and they're there with 30 caravans.
"This is an industrial site and is not designed for camping."
He said the group's refusal to leave had led him to hire a DJ to play music from Wednesday morning, starting at around 9am.
"This is a way of putting pressure on them. It was very difficult to negotiate with the gipsy king, as he called himself," Mr Debroux said.
"It's a non-violent method to ask them to come to an agreement."

The Golden Rules of Fraud Prevention
As a smart shopper, you probably spend a lot of time searching for the best deals. However, some of those great finds aren't really all that terrific.
In fact, a lot of "good deals" are actually on items you could get free. Following are our top 10 things for which people overpay.
1. Book downloads
Unless your tastes run to the esoteric, there is no excuse for paying to download e-books. You can probably download just about any bestseller your heart desires from your local library.
If you have an Amazon Prime membership, you get free downloads there as well.
Amazon also maintains links to databases with free public domain books. Finally, plenty of e-books get marked down to free on Amazon as promotions.
Blogger Crystal Paine at Money Saving Mom keeps a current list of free e-books in the parenting, family and food genres. For everything else, you might want to head to Freebook Sifter.
2. Movie rentals
In addition to e-books, your local library likely has at least a couple of shelves of DVDs and Blu-rays just waiting to be picked up for family movie night. If your library doesn't have the title you want on the shelf, it may be able request the movie from another library system.
Another free movie rental option is the Redbox Text Club. Send the word SIGNUP to 727272 to receive promotional messages from the company. At least once a month, I receive a code for a free rental.
3. Magazine subscriptions
While we're discussing the great things you can get at the library, let's not forget magazines.
How many times do you spend 15 minutes flipping through a magazine and then toss it into the recycling bin?
Sure, you may use a cooking or woodworking magazine again and again, but are you really going to look at the wedding photos from Kim Kardashian and Kanye West more than once? Get those kind of quick reads from the library.
If you really want to have magazines delivered to your house, ValueMags has a selection of free subscriptions. Or, see if you qualify for some free business-related titles through Mercury Magazines.
4. Bottled water
There is a secret behind bottled water. Companies promote it as crisp, pure spring water, but it's typically just water that comes out of the ground, much like the water that pours from your faucet.
Practically all groundwater can be considered spring water. Unless you live in an area with known contamination, there's no guarantee the bottled water you pay for at the store is any better than the water coming out of your own tap.
If you're really concerned about the quality or taste of your tap water, buy a faucet filter or filtered pitcher.
5. Brand-name medications
Brand-name drugs are big business, and pharmaceutical companies spend a lot of money trying to convince you to buy items with their name on the label.
Instead of jumping on the brand-name bandwagon, consider buying a generic instead. Generics are held to the same standard as the brand names and can save you a bundle. Many health insurance plans now also have higher co-pays for brand names.
You can read more in our article about whether generic drugs are safe.
6. Brand-name everything else
Brand-name medicines aren't the only deal you should be rethinking. Practically any brand-name product might be a bad deal when lower-priced generics are literally inches away.
I realize that some people bristle at the thought of generics, envisioning watered-down shampoo or cardboard crackers. Certainly, there are some low-quality off-brands.
However, your grocer's store brand is often just as good as the national brand when it comes to quality and taste.
Don't take my word for it. Consumer Reports did taste tests and found generics to be on equal footing with their brand-name counterparts. We also have an article with advice on how to decide when to go generic.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -
Coming off the runner-up finish at the NCAA Championships in June, the Alabama men's golf team finds itself ranked No. 1 entering the 2012-13 season in the Golf World/Nike Division I Preseason Coaches' Poll.
The Crimson Tide received 558 points and 13 out of the possible 23 first-place votes.
Behind Alabama are the defending NCAA champions, the Texas Longhorns, who received eight first-place votes. Rounding out the top five are three Pac-12 schools; No. 3 California, No. 4 UCLA and No. 5 Washington.
"It is exciting to be the preseason No. 1, but there is a long year ahead of us and we know how difficult it will be," Alabama head coach Jay Seawell said. "Coming so close to a championship a year ago has only strengthened this team's bond and work ethic. We are looking forward to each shot this season and the opportunity to perform to our standards."
Overall, the Southeastern Conference has six teams ranked in the preseason poll. Following Alabama is No. 6 Auburn, while No. 8 Arkansas and No. 10 Texas A&M also rank in the top 10. Florida comes in at No. 12 and Georgia sneaks in the top 20 at number 19. Also receiving votes from the SEC were South Carolina, LSU and Tennessee.
The Crimson Tide returns four starters from last year's runner-up finish, but lose last year's team captain Hunter Hamrick.
Returning for the Tide this year is the top-ranked individual in the Golfweek/Sagarin Performance Index and the reigning National Player of the Year, sophomore Justin Thomas. Last year, Thomas recorded four victories and a 70.39 scoring average. Thomas was the recipient of the Jack Nicklaus Award, the 2012 Haskins Award, a consensus first-team All-American and a semifinalist this summer at the U.S. Amateurs.
The junior duo of Cory Whitsett and Bobby Wyatt also return for their third season with the Tide. Whitsett recorded two victories last year and was both an All-SEC selection and a second-team All-America pick by both Golfweek and PING. Wyatt also was an All-SEC pick and also received second-team All-America honors by Golfweek and a third-team pick by PING.
Alabama opens its season at the Carpet Capital Collegiate in Rocky Face, Ga., September 7-9.

Dozen Distinctive Destinations
From 2000 - 2011, the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Dozen Distinctive Destinations program provided an annual list of twelve cities and towns that showcased the best practices for creating an authentic visitor experience.
By combining dynamic downtowns, cultural diversity, attractive architecture, cultural landscapes, and a strong commitment to historic preservation, sustainability and revitalization – each of the Dozen Distinctive Destinations offer something truly unique. In each community, residents have joined together and taken action to protect their town's character.
Browse below to see what cities and towns made the list each year.
Have a place in mind you think should be recognized? See if it qualifies for one of our other programs:
- Help us raise national awareness for a one-of-a-kind place in your area – and generate local support for protecting it – by nominating it for the annual America's 11 Most Endangered Historic Places list.
- Nominate a successful preservation project for a Richard H. Driehaus National Preservation Award.
- Tell your local historic sites about the new Distinctive Destinations program, a network of over 250 historic sites marketed to National Trust members. Learn more here.

Tehran says diplomacy still best way of resolving intensifying conflict in Syria; notes that abrupt end to Assad rule could have catastrophic consequences
Published: 08.09.12, 14:34 / Israel News
Iran said an abrupt end to the rule of President Bashar Assad
would have catastrophic consequences for his country, as Tehran pushed ahead with a diplomatic meeting of allies it says is the best way of resolving the intensifying conflict in Syria.
Related stories:
Iranian media has reported that China would also be present, along with at least 15 others, including Iraq, Algeria, Tajikistan, Venezuela, Pakistan, India and several members of the Arab League.
In an opinion piece published by the Washington Post on Wednesday, Iranian foreign minister Ali Akbar Salehi warned that the fall of Assad would lead to further unrest.
"They seem to be so jittery about Syria, they couldn't afford to wait," he added.
Iranian involvement in the crisis has been complicated by the seizure
by rebels of 48 Iranians in Syria on Saturday on suspicion of being military personnel. Tehran has said they were pilgrims, but acknowledged that some of the men were retired soldiers or Revolutionary Guards.
On Tuesday, while Foreign Minister Salehi was in Ankara trying to maintain relations, the head of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Saeed Jalili was in Damascus to reassure Assad of Tehran's support.
The meeting comes just days before a meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation set to focus on Syria. In recent days Iran has warned the Muslim world of the threat posed to it by the United States.
"In the new plan that the Americans have provided for the Middle East, they have foreseen changes for all countries," Iran's state news agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying on Wednesday.
"I am certain they have plans for changes in Saudi Arabia as well ... they do not want Muslim countries to have power and in opposition we must stand together more than before," he added.

A Greenwood man convicted earlier this year of child molestation was sentenced to three years in prison.
Douglas Hubbard, 55, 5849 Brenda Court, also was sentenced to three years on probation, according to a news release from the Johnson County Prosecutor's Office.
A jury convicted Hubbard of a Class C felony count of child molesting after three days of testimony.
He could have faced up to eight years in prison when he was sentenced by Johnson Superior Court 2 Judge Cynthia Emkes.
Hubbard's attorney asked that Hubbard not be sentenced to prison because he had no previous criminal convictions and because he had to care for a sick family member. But the deputy prosecutor argued that Hubbard needed to go to prison and the effect of the crime justified prison time, the news release said.
The conviction was from an incident in 2010.

King's Rules on Good Governance: Former South African Supreme Court Judge, Mervyn King, Is an Internationally Acknowledged Expert on Corporate Governance. His Views and Experience Are Highly Prized in His Native South Africa, Europe, the United States and Now New Zealand and Australia. (Governance)
Mervyn King was in New Zealand last month as a guest of the Sheffield Academy of Corporate Governance. Directors in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch turned out for his series of Institute of Directors/Sheffield organised seminars entitled 'Good Governance Simplified'. He also offered private consulting advice to some of our largest enterprises. The New Zealand Stock Exchange released its proposed rule changes while he was here. He wasn't entirely impressed. He talked to The Director's editor Reg Birchfield.
What do you think of the NZSE's proposed governance rule changes?
I haven't seen the detail of what is proposed but I have my doubts about directors having to be certified. In the UK they tried to charter directors. They very quickly found that they had to rethink this. Some of the best directors do not have degrees, are not lawyers or accountants. They soon started making exceptions to the rules. Why make a rule if you end up having to make exceptions?
New Zealand has a very small skill pool from which to draw competent and experienced directors. Too many restrictions will reduce that pool even more. And then, on the question of accreditation, who accredits the accreditors? How well suited is the IOD to accredit than say, an outside organisation like Sheffield or even a group of financial journalists?
I am also sceptical about the suggestion that the external or lead auditor should change every five years. New Zealand, like South Africa, faces a real skills shortage in this area. For the first two years your external auditor is learning about the business. It is only about the third or fourth year that they actually understand your business, so you only get a quality audit in the third and fourth years. The problem is, if they only have a year to go after getting on top of the job, they will become demotivated to do a good job. That's insane. In South Africa you have two auditors; one watches the other as well as the company. With only four global accounting firms, how do you move them around every five years?
The problem, it seems to me, is that the NZSE is trying to cookie-cut from the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and that (Act) isn't going to work even in the United States.
Sometimes the chief executive gets too close to the senior audit partner so I suggest that every three years you change the senior audit partner, but keep the same audit firm and retain the continuity.
What about the provision for independent non-executive directors?
There are effectively now four kinds of directors. To my mind, if you are a director you are a director. But, if you are employed by the company you are now labelled an executive director. Someone who is not employed by the company but who might have some contractual link, or supply something, is a non-executive director but is not independent. Someone not employed by the company, without contractual links and not representing a major shareholder, is an independent non-executive director and someone people can rely on. Sarbanes-Oxley has gone another step and created a senior independent non-executive director who must focus on the interests of the major shareholder. It is getting silly. And what about the role of the chairman in all this. It is confusing. I have real doubts about (the practicality) of all this in a small country like New Zealand.
Why did you move from the law to commerce?
I resigned from the judiciary with another judge because we objected to the (white) government's financing of South African newspapers and using them as the (president's) mouthpiece to prop up an horrific social scene. …

- Markandey Katju's corruption allegations completely baseless: K G BalakrishnanCorruption in judiciary: Markandey Katju alleges pressure, CPI turns to Manmohan Singh for answerMarkandey Katju raises 'corruption in judiciary' row, AIADMK wants probeDemand for probe into Markandey Katju's corruption in judiciary charges, timing questioned
Former Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju, who alleged that three Chief Justices of India made "improper compromises" during UPA rule in allowing a judge under corruption cloud to continue in office, today posed six questions to one them--Justice R C Lahoti--on the issue.
Markandey Katju asked if after receiving the adverse IB report against the Additional Judge, Lahoti, who was then Chief Justice of India, called a meeting of the three-Judge Supreme Court Collegium, consisting of himself, Justice Y K Sabharwal and Justice Ruma Pal, and the Collegium, having perused the IB report recommended to the Government of India not to extend the 2-year-term of that Additional Judge?
Katju, Chairman of the Press Council of India, put the posers to Lahoti on his blog.
On timing of his statement yesterday, he said, "Some people have commented about the timing of my statement. What happened was that some Tamilians had commented on Facebook that I am posting several matters on my Facebook post, so I should also post some of my experiences in Madras High Court.
"Then I started posting about my experiences there, and it was at time I remembered this experience too, and posted it," he said.
Katju asked, "Is it, or is it not, correct that after that recommendation of the 3 Judge Collegium of the Supreme Court was sent to the Government of India, he (Justice Lahoti), on his own, without consulting his 2 other Supreme Court Collegium colleagues, wrote a letter to the Government of India asking the Government to give another 1 year term as Additional Judge to the concerned Judge?"
The allegation on how an unnamed additional judge of Madras High Court was given extension at the instance of UPA-I government owing to pressure from an ally, a "Tamil Nadu party", apparently DMK, and then confirmed as a permanent judge led to an uproar yesterday in Parliament by AIADMK MPs even as questions were raised by parties like Congress on its timing.
Katju further said on his blog, "If indeed the IB reported, after an enquiry, that the Judge was indulging in corruption, why did he (Justice Lahoti) recommend to the Government of India to give that corrupt Judge another term of 1 year as Additional Judge in the High Court?"

Kevin Spacey appeared on "The Colbert Report" last night to talk "House of Cards," which is up for nine Emmys, including Outstanding Drama Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his performance as the amoral Representative Frank Underwood. Between some playful ribbing -- Colbert teased Spacey about looking like "an extra in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'" in his cream-colored suit -- the two talked about the Netflix original's status as the first digital series to be a contender in the major categories, with Colbert referring to Spacey as "the Jackie Robinson of the internet." "Why should you get an award for TV when you're not on TV? Defend yourself!" Colbert demanded, with Spacey responding by talking about how Netflix's release of the entire "House of Cards" season at once is indicative of "where things have been going in the last eight years."

Studio Thinking : The Real Benefits of Visual Arts Education
ISBN13:by Hetland, Lois
Teachers College Pr
Many people believe that art education is important, but few can say exactly why. Here, at last, are the results of the first in-depth research on the "habits of mind" that are instilled by studying art habits the authors argue have positive impacts on student learning across the curriculum. Studio Thinking provides art teachers with a research-based language for describing what they intend to teach and what students learn. This language will help advocates explain arts education to policymakers, help art teachers develop and refine their teaching practices, and help educators in other disciplines learn from existing practices in arts education.

Growing flowers and fellowship
Conservancy creates community garden
1 2 Next page >
Green-thumbed village residents will find a new place to gather and plant on Saturday, when the Rockville Centre Conservancy unveils its first community garden.
It is located at the junction of Jefferson Avenue and Water Street, on a plot owned by the village that has been deemed unsuitable for construction. Normally, it would be sold to neighboring landowners, but in this case the Conservancy has been granted use of the land by the village, and received initial funding from the Molloy Sustainability Institute.
The Conservancy hopes to build up to 16 4- by 8-foot beds on the property. Six were built last summer in order to test the growing area, and the Conservancy wants to build another 10 this Saturday. The beds will be rented out annually — first-time renters can expect to pay $100 per plot, and prices will be reduced next year. The fees will be put toward the purchase of lumber, water, soil and compost and the construction of a communal tool shed.
Prospective gardeners have high hopes for the plot, which receives more than six hours of sunshine a day — more than enough to sustain garden beds with flowers and vegetables. The Department of Public Works, which will help prepare the area, plans to install a gate in the chain-link fence that surrounds the property and to remove a sapling that's now in the growing space. Department workers will also install an irrigation system.
"Our hopes are to give the residents of Rockville Centre an opportunity to engage with nature and grow fresh produce for themselves or to share, and at the same time provide an opportunity for positive social interaction," said Maggie Gray, the Conservancy's master gardener. "We want to give people a chance to get their hands dirty and to grow community alongside vegetables."
Gray, a horticulturist with Cornell Cooperative Extension and the Long Island Children's Museum, will spearhead the project for the Conservancy. She said she hopes to use some of the money raised from plot fees to fund an expansion of the project in the future, including new community plots and classes on topics ranging from gardening to beekeeping.

I tried watching Hangover 1 three different times and couldn't get through it. I liked the photo though. Maybe I'll try Hangover 2 for the money's sake. I meant monkey's sake. Anyhow, sometimes we babysit an English bulldog. I'll get it for the next time he comes to visit. He'll watch anything. Might have something to do with my AA participation.
No 2 is also funny because it is shot in Thailand and picks up on many tourist
clichés about Thailand.
At the end of the movie after everything is ok, they recharge a phone and find out exactly what happened on the fateful night. One guy says no lets not look at it and Mike Tyson says, come on I'm Mike Tyson, I've seen everything...then they show the pictures during the credits.

The whole concept of the ruling class is really the best framework for deciphering what is going on not only in the US but globally. The next interesting question is how the emerging market power shift, ie all those Chinese and Indian billionaires, will impact the current status quo.
I trust that I'm a bit more clear. I have no institutional knowledge of the ongoing fraud, but I do have rather skin in the game wrt "the way things ought to be" in the Country class.
It was Cheeky who nominated me as the piglet metaphore for me, and I gladly accepted that.

Maybe not so much in China WB. Apparently the life span of Chinese billionaires can be rather short:

Brilliant WB!
Even as he drives off the cliff and Boehner has been ejected, Barry sits stoic and unconcerned. Or does he even notice?
Obama is playing nine-dimensional chess. This is all part of his master plan to save the universe and give everyone a free pony.
Does he notice? He's stoned. Why do you think he "parties" every week in the White HOuse with his bruthas in the entertainment industry? Why, to score his choom, bitch. I guess it helps his ADHD.
Maybe the market(s) are up today based upon the hope that Big O and Boner might just literally drive off the cliff.
Makes as much sense as anything else I've read.
actually its seems more like driving into the cliff. the irresistible force meets the immovable object?
Gravity meets ground, nah, I like the original cliff scenario.
Another hit piece by WB7
Thank you WB7...
The thing is, we're the ones being driven into the cliff. These good fellas will be monitoring the situation from safety. At least until their paymasters downsize them.

It isn't real. It's just the latest video game, Call of the Canyon, toggles and all.
I think the democrats will let it go over the cliff to gain more bargaining power.
seems to the GOP has more to gain, because they control the house and all spending bills, the spending cuts kick in and they write the only legislation that can get passed.
Good point. I think we will have some major gridlock or can kicking. I have been reading this site since the Tylers moved from the blog to the .com and I am amazed how nothing has blown up. Year after year the can gets kicked. So much so actually started to lose interest in reality. I think it might be better to join the dancing with the stars crowd, they seem happier.
....yeah....except Ocuntus spent the better part of his first term (Cass Sunstein/Jarrett, et.al) consolidating his power, through by-passing Congress......
Never has driving off a cliff seemed like so much fun!
ANybody else walk by Treasury lately and wonder if the hole they are digging in the front yard is something more metaphorical than just a hole?

That's just great...Nobody likes me!
at least the original Tiny Tim had some redeeming social value-and could probably be more adept at Turbo Tax
As I've been saying for years, now; we really do have a "Thelma and Louise" themed Federal Financial Plan.
I realize the "fiscal cliff" is the new popular buzz phrase and certainly it does need to be parodied. But the only socially useful thing I can think of to do with a few escess electrons here; is to remind everyone that what was once a subject of debate, and abundant scorn was heaped on those of us who thought there would be more, or even, a lot more QE; is not a subject of debate anymore. QE3 is real. It exists. This is now the world we live in. In so far as they're able people are taking this into account and changing their arrangements and changing their estimates of the future and we see the precious metals reacting slowly but strongly and surely. I would say that the cliff we just ran off of is the one that we often see Wiley Coyote run off of in the cartoon; and then while his legs are still spinning around, he looks down and discovers that gravity is going to take care of the rest of his fate. I think we're just waiting to see when a critical number of people look down, and say, "hey, wait a minute". This print till you choke cliff that we really have run off of is a lot more important I think than the media event "fiscal cliff".

Can we just have the WAR and begin the recovery process, already!!!

How to giffgaff iPhones (all iOS versions)
It's easy to use your iPhone on giffgaff! This guide contains everything you need to know, just select the section that matches your need:
Do I need a micro SIM or a nano SIM?
Different iPhone models use different sized SIM cards. This article shows which SIM you will need for your iDevice. It also shows you how to insert and remove the SIM
If you need a new SIM, you can order one from the Order page. If you are an existing giffgaff members switching to a different sized SIM, you can then use SIM Swap to transfer your number and credit to this new SIM.
Do I need to unlock my phone?
Phones that work on O2 or that have been purchased from giffgaff or the Apple Store unlocked will work on giffgaff without unlocking. Phones from other networks will generally require unlocking before being used with a giffgaff SIM.
If this does not work straight away, you can connect your iPhone using the giffgaff SIM card to iTunes to setup and sync your phone.
giffgaff is unable to unlock an iPhone which has been purchased from another supplier but you can contact the seller to ask to unlock it. Please note that this may not be possible or can be chargeable depending on the agreement you have with the seller.
Internet and MMS Settings
Using the official giffgaff carrier profile
If your iPhone is running iOS 7.1.1 or later, you will receive a notification telling you that the giffgaff carrier settings are available. Simply follow the on-screen instructions to install the carrier profile.
If you haven't received the notification, you can force your iPhone to check for the update by using a Wi-Fi or a 3G/4G Internet connection and going to:
Settings > General > About
Wait a few seconds and the iPhone should prompt that an update is available. You can also find this update by connecting your iPhone to itunes.
If your iPhone is running an older version of iOS, you will have to update it to the latest version to install the carrier settings. When you upgrade iOS to a newer version, the carrier profile is reset to the latest version available during the update.
Change your carrier profile manually
If your iDevice is running an older version of iOS, it is possible to modify the internet settings by downloading giffgaff's carrier profile. You'll need to access this link using the Safari browser on an Iphone; please note it won't be displayed properly on any other device.
To do this:
- Connect to a Wi-Fi network
- Open the Safari browser
- Click on this link or go to: http://giff.ly/iphonesettings
- Download and install the carrier profile
- Reset your network connection
This will replace your current profile with giffgaff's Internet settings, including the parameters which can't be modified manually (e.g. proxy settings). MMS settings must be modified manually, see below.
Manual update of MMS Settings
You can view the APN settings on your iOS device in Settings > Cellular > Cellular Data Network.
- Go to Settings

Setting up your voicemail
see this article about voicemail
Visual voicemail
sorry we don't have Visual voicemail, however there are alternatives such as Hullomail
Voicemail icon
If your iphone is using IOS 7.1.1 or later, the red blob indicates new voicemail and you can tap the voicemail icon and access your voicemail.
If you're using iOS 7.1.0 or earlier, voicemail can be confusing on iPhone. You get the red blob on your Voicemail icon, but you can't use the Voicemail button to pick up your messages, you have to dial 443 instead. Changing to text alerts alleviates this:
- Call 443
- Press * to get to the main menu
- Press 4 for Mailbox Settings
- Press 1 for Notification options
- Press 1 to enable text notification
Now, when you get a voicemail, instead of the red blob you'll get a text like this, and you can just click "Call" to pick it up:
What's even cleverer is that if you get more than one voicemail, this text will update itself to say "2 new messages", "3 new messages", etc. You'll never see a big long list of texts here - just one, with the latest count of voicemails. Very neat.
Extra tip - if you add 443 to your Contacts, you can set a custom tone so that voicemails sound different to texts (iOS 5 & higher only).
After porting your number to giffgaff, iPhones often have a problem where your original giffgaff number appears rather than your own when you send iMessages to some people. There is an easy fix for this:
- Go to Settings
- Go to Messages
- Switch iMessage OFF
- Once it's switched off, turn it back ON again.
- Wait for it to finish activating
- Go to Settings
- Go to Phone
- Check that the number under "My Number" is correct, if not, change it
- Reboot your phone (switch the phone off and then on again)
Your iMessages should now display the correct number.
This can also be verified by going to the Apple website to Manage your Apple I.D.
On this link you will be able to update your phone number and other aspects of your Apple I.D.
giffgaff App
Check out the official My giffgaff app. This handy app lets you manage your giffgaff account on the fly. You can download it from iTunes, just follow this link: My giffgaff for IOS.
Please note: You cannot use the app to install internet settings for iOS devices

Elite Entertainment // 1968 // 96 Minutes // Not Rated
Reviewed by Judge Patrick Naugle // May 1st, 2002
"They're coming to get you, Barbara!" -- Johnny
1968 was a banner year for many reasons. I'm sure if you look in a large, dusty history book filled with impressive writing it will give many fine examples. For my money, 1968 was big for one and one reason only: George A. Romero's horror classic Night of the Living Dead was unleashed in theaters. There have been many sequels (Dawn Of The Dead, Day Of The Dead), rip-offs (Zombi), and parodies (The Return of the Living Dead series), but nothing stacks up to the power and sheer terror of Romero's original. Many versions of this film have been released on DVD (including a cruddy version by Hollywood Classics and a bastardized re-edit by Anchor Bay), but only two editions are worth seeking out: Elite's original release, and this new "Millennium Edition" DVD.
As if I even need to explain the plot for you diehard horror fans. But, due to the fact that it's my job, I'll sum it up for all your zombie virgins out there:
Night of the Living Dead opens up with Barbara (Judith O'Dea) and Johnny (Russell Streiner) driving up to a cemetery in the middle of nowhere (well, Pittsburgh actually) to visit their mother's grave. Upon arrival they are accosted near her grave by a very angry looking man...wait, that's no man...that's a zombie!
Johnny ends up meeting his Maker as Barbara makes a run for it to an old abandoned farmhouse. There she meets Ben (Duane Jones), who was also attacked by the zombies in town. Through the course of the night, we also meet some other folks hiding in the house: the angry Harry Cooper (Karl Hardman), his wife Helen (Marilyn Eastman) and her daughter, plus a young couple, Tom and Judy (Keith Wayne and Judith Ridley). A few of these people mix like oil and water, and as the night wears on the living dead close in.
Why have the dead returned to life? No one seems to know, though there is speculation that it's from a contaminated satellite probe back from outer space. Now they're up and about, eating the living and really screwing up the local mortician's job.
Soon a decision must be made: do the survivors lock themselves in the house basement, or try and barricade themselves in on the main floor? Cooper thinks the basement, Ben says the main floor. Decisions, decisions. There's also a truck outside and a gas pump nearby, but they need to find the key first. Maybe they could escape? But maybe not.
All the while, more and more zombies start circling the house like Custer's last stand. Will Ben, Barbara, and the rest of the group make it through the night? Or will they become a midnight snack for the living dead?
Do I even need to say that Night of the Living Dead is one of the greatest horror films ever made? If you haven't seen this film, run, don't walk, to your local DVD store and rent it right now. With this one stroke, George Romero paints one of the finest and most terrifying films ever shown on the silver screen.
What's so good about it? Everything. Night of the Living Dead's greatest asset is its black and white ambience. In any other situation, this would have been a color film, but the budget for Night of the Living Dead was so low that the filmmakers had to use cheaper film stock, and black and white was the obvious choice. As luck would have it, Night of the Living Dead has a creepy documentary feel to it that makes the film feel older than death. The film tends to jump around a bit with some shots out of focus. This only enhances the feel of dread and ominous peril. Though the characters of the film valiantly fight for their lives, we get the idea that this might be a lost cause. Outside the house loom rotting corpses bent on having each human as a meal; inside are seven people bent on making individual choices that all point to self destruction.
Romero has shown that he is a prolific horror director, having an excellent body of work including the Night of the Living Dead sequel Dawn of the Dead, the Stephen King adaptation The Dark Half, and the EC Comics-inspired Creepshow. Night of the Living Dead looks and feels completely different than his later work. His "Hollywood" films, and even his more independent work, has a slicker, cleaner look than Night of the Living Dead.
Romero attracted some no-name talent to the project, including Jones, O'Dea, and Hardman. All the actors do fine jobs (though Hardman as Cooper teeters on the line of overacting). Duane Jones is especially good as Ben, the Prudential rock among all these terrified characters. "Back in the day" it was rare to have a black character as a leading man. Hats off to Mr. Romero for picking a winner in Jones.
Night of the Living Dead: Millennium Edition is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.33:1 (standard). Elite has surpassed every other DVD company by putting out the crispest, cleanest transfer to date (done from the original negatives). The black and white tones are very well balanced, and only the smallest grain is seen. This picture is THX certified and it certainly shows. Compared to the original Elite release there isn't much difference here -- the tones, colors, and levels are evenly balanced and very, very clear.
The audio is presented in Dolby Digital Mono as well as a newly remixed Dolby 5.1 soundtrack. I was a little leery that this 5.1 remix would sound artificial or contrived, much like previous remixes on older films. I am happy to report that this is generally a good remix that uses only subtle effects in all five speakers (mainly the music score for directional sounds). However, I personally recommend the original mono soundtrack. For some odd reason it just feels more authentic. No distortion or hiss was heard in any of these soundtracks.
Elite has included some excellent extra features on this new "Millennium Edition" DVD, including a few holdovers from their previous release. The first track includes director George Romero, actor/producer John Russo, actor Carl Hardman, and actress Marilyn Eastman. This commentary track leans largely on the technical side, discussing locations, writing, lighting, and production (at one point someone says "nice F-stops"). The track is great for those of you that are interested in behind-the-scenes information and tidbits to tickle your morbid funny bone. The second commentary track includes actor Bill Hinzman (the cemetery zombie), actress Judith O'Dea, actor Keith Wayne, actress Kyra Schon (the little Cooper girl), actor Russell Streiner, and production designer Vince Survinski. This commentary is more entertaining than the first, almost reminiscing instead of providing technical information. Both commentaries are a lot of fun and worth the listen. Also included are a few trailers for the film (with some creepy voice-over work by the narrator). The last holdover from the original disc is a parody short called Night of the Living Bread by Kevin S. O'Brian, made in 1990. The short film is a funny spoof substituting killer bread for man-eating zombies. Though the short is humorous enough, its inclusion is curious, as it doesn't seem to be connected to the film or its makers in any way.
The new material varies in quality, but it is nice to have on this disc. There are two new interviews with stars Judith Ridley and Duane Jones, the latter a completely vocal interview from the radio. Ridley's interview is with Marilyn Eastman and is a basic overview of her career. The Jones interview was the last one he participated in before his death in 1988. This is one of the best new features, as it gives viewers an insight into Jones and his work in Night of the Living Dead.
Next up are a few short scenes from an apparent "lost" film by George Romero titled "There's Always Vanilla." These scenes feature Judith Ridley and aren't all that interesting. It's a good thing we never saw the final version of this film, as it looks to me like a dud. Also included on this second disc are some commercials he made for his company The Latent Image, as well as a history of the studio with outtakes from something called "The Derelict" (a short produced by the studio) and some printed info on the studio itself.
Finally there is a personal scrapbook with well over 160 posters, stills, props and more from the film; the original treatment/script of the film; some liner notes by horror guru Stephen King; and a THX Optimizer for home TVs and sound systems.
This is one instance where it's very difficult to point out any failings in the film. Some of the dialogue may be stiff by today's standards, but that's of no real consequence. This film is a time capsule and (I suspect) played as well back in the '60s as it does today. Elite is given a very hearty pat on the back for making this transfer look magically clean and crisp with a very nice audio track. Though interviews or a documentary would have been fun, this is still worth any price you find it at.
I'd also like to take a moment and warn against the Anchor Bay Night of the Living Dead 30th Anniversary Edition. By no means should this version be purchased. It's a bastardization of Romero's original concept. I was stupid enough to purchase it and was unable to get rid of it on eBay for even five dollars! My DVD player exploded when I inserted the disc into it. Buyer beware!
One of the all-time greats in the horror film field, Night of the Living Dead is not to be missed. Elite has done a fantastic job with their second release of this classic fight film. The audio and video presentations are superb, and the extra features should make any Romero fan squeal with delight!
Absolutely free to go! Check out this great disc and even greater film ASAP! Case dismissed!

Glossy Angels
We no longer link to this site.
We no longer link to this site.
If you are looking for "tasteless porn or old soccer moms," then Glossy Angels isn't the place for you (they tell us that on the tour page). They also tell us that their focus is on "beautiful models showing their pure, untouched, fresh nudity." The question is, do they deliver? The short answer is yes. The long answer is in the rest of this review.
The GlossyAngels site looks good, with big buttons and a sleek design. Navigation is also simple, with the menu bar at the top of the page. The two menu options you will be clicking most are "movies" and "photos." There is also a models section that allows you to browse the girls and check out their individual content.
There isn't a favorites section and while this may induce some of you to think, "So what? I don't mind," I did mind in this particular case. The pages in the video and photo section can only be advanced by "next" and "back" buttons, so finding a favorite could be tedious. At least do yourself a favor and remember the babe's name, so you can quickly find her in the model index.
You will currently find 118 videos and 497 sets of pictures. As you can see, the site is more of a picture site than a video one. Unfortunately, it appears that neither pictures nor movies are being added anymore. According to the dates, they last added content just over a year ago.
As for good news, both the videos and photo sets are very well shot and have a lot more artistic appeal than your average on-a-couch-spreading-your-legs material. The porn is softcore solo-babe action and I use the term "babe" literally.
These mostly Eastern European chicks are gorgeous, with incredible bodies and a strong erotic appeal. Although some only strip to reveal their beautiful nakedness, others go farther, touching themselves and blatantly putting their pussies on display.
I also have to mention that while the women are gorgeous, so is the material. The photos are high-res and the videos are presented in HD. You can download them in Windows Media files and they look fantastic. My only complaint would be that there are no Zip files for the galleries.
If they were to add new videos the site would be even better and a streaming format would also improve its score. However, considering the current situation, there's enough high-quality porn to make Glossy Angels worth a look.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

DAILY NEWS: "Hollow" Follow-Up; Editorials from Arthur Dong & Debra Chasnoff
by Anthony Kaufman/indieWIRE, with contributions from Arthur Dong and Debra
>> "Hollow" Hits HBO as Kennedy Heads to Mississippi
After premiering in the Documentary Competition at Sundance '99, "American Hollow," Rory Kennedy's documentary about an impoverished Appalachian family, traveled this year's festival circuit to much acclaim, winning Best
Documentary awards at the Newport, Chicago, Northampton, and AFI Film
Festivals. With a two-week Academy Award-qualifying run at New York's Film
Forum, the film's incisive and respectful look at the rural poor will likely make it a prime contender come Oscar time. (Kennedy's partner at Moxie/Firecracker Films, filmmaker Liz Garbus, was nominated last year for her co-directorial effort "The Farm" (with Jonathan Stack), Of her own Oscar hopes, Kennedy offers, "We'll see," not wanting to jinx her chances.) Since her year-long stint in the "Hollow," Kennedy has moved on to another familial documentary for HBO; this time, she travels to Mississippi to chronicle three generations of mental illness in a single family and "the challenges they face."
As for her subjects in the Hollow, with whom she still speaks frequently,
Kennedy offers some updates: Iree Bowling, the 69-year-old matriarch is
"doing fine" and still taking care of her mother with Alzheimer's. Granddaughter Samantha stopped working because her youngest child is sick in the hospital; her abusive ex-husband was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Young Clint, who hoped to leave the Hollow one day, has "come and gone, but now he's back," and "everybody else," according to the filmmaker, "seems to be doing pretty well."
Just this month, "American Hollow" has had two special premieres, one on
Capitol Hill, the other at Harvard University. For the socially concerned
Kennedy, the screenings have been held in an effort to "try to draw intention to issues around rural poverty." She continues, "As we grow wealthier and wealthier, and healthier and healthier as a nation, the poor seem to get poorer and poorer. If there's been any time in our history that's been a good time to fight poverty -- and the issues around poverty like the lack of education and healthcare -- than this would be the time to do it."
"American Hollow" airs tonight on HBO, followed by repeat showings on Dec.
2nd and Dec. 14th.
At this year's Sundance Film Festival, Amy Goodman spoke to Kennedy, along
with the filmmakers responsible for this year's other "American" docs,
Chris Smith and Sarah Price ("American Movie") and the Hughes Brothers ("American Pimp"). [Anthony Kaufman]

To Kill," nominated for an Emmy this year; "Coming Out Under Fire";

I would, but the Tidewater Bicycle Association's "Knotts Island Century" is the same day.

My Rides: '06 Giant OCR Limited & '95 GT OUTPOST
I'm doing it, as well as the Cap-to-Cap on May 9th (www.virginiacapitaltrail.org) and of course, Bike Virginia in June.
I did it last year, and it was pretty cool. Lots of meandering around trying to find the right routes though. Some of them were just bizarre. The organizers have an ecological objection to printing cue sheets (I guess) so you have to follow the color-coded markers on the road.
It was flat and easy riding, and lots of good company though. Watch out for the wandering families on mountain bikes....
hi tulip. I'm really looking forward to Bike Virginia this year. Last year was my first time and I had a blast. This one is closer to home, and I'm fairly familiar with the area (at least from Culpeper northwards.) Hope to see you there!
I thought I had a route sheet last year. Perhaps not.
Anyway anyone want to form a team for a discount?
My girlfriend and I may be interested, but we're scheduled for a 5k memorial run for National Police Week.
Hi Joe. If I recall they had maps on newspaper-type paper, but not actual cue sheets.
