STAGE TUBE: SIDE SHOW Flashback- Emily Skinner & Alice Ripley Sing 'I Will Never Leave You'
Side Show, based on the true life story of conjoined twins Daisy and Violet Hilton, is set to be revived at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. in performances June 14 - July 13, 2014. The Kennedy Center revival, which recently premiered at La Jolla Playhouse, will star Erin Davie and Emily Padgett and will be directed by directed by Academy Award winner Bill Condon (Dreamgirls, Chicago).
Side Show originally opened on Broadway in 1997, starring Alice Ripley and Emily Skinner as the Hilton twins. Telling the story of their rise from circus attractions to famous vaudeville performers during the Great Depression, Side Show brings us the sisters' lifelong search for fortune, romance, and a spot on the stage. Below, BroadwayWorld flashes back to the original siamese duo in action, as they perform "I Will Never Leave You" on the Rosie O'Donnell Show!
Ripley and Skinner were the first women to be co-nominated for a shared Tony Award in a musical in 1998. Ripley first debuted on Broadway in 1993 in the original cast of Who's Tommy. She went on to perform as Fantine in Les Miserables and the original casts of Sunset Boulevard (Betty Schaefer), King David (Bathsheba), James Joyce's The Dead (Molly Ivors), The Rocky Horror Show (Janet Weiss), Dreamgirls: the concert (as one of The Sweethearts), and Next to Normal (Diana Goodman, for which she won the 2009 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical). She most recently starred alongside Marc Kudisch in a reading for the musical parody of 'The Shining', titled Redrum.
Emily Skinner appeared on Broadway as an ensemble member and understudy for both Emma and Lucy in Jekyll and Hyde in 1997. She also appeared in Billy Elliot, Five, James Joyce's The Dead, The Full Monty, Dinner at Eight, Encores! productions of Pardon My English and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Broadway Actor's Fund concert performances of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and Dreamgirls, and in Breakfast at Tiffany's at The Muny. She will soon star in York Theatre Company's Inventing Mary Martin, which begins performances at Saint Peter's on April 15, 2014.

THEY are the unsung heroes without whom the Ryder Cup would never have finished. So as the competition reached its climax, it may appear strange that the green staff were not revelling in the glory of their success but were hidden away in a portable office off Bulmore Road and the fifth green.
135 green staff worked 15-hour days from 5am till 8.30pm over the four days of the tournament. As they crowded around a television, tired, and watching the tournament's closing stages unfold, it was the pictures being beamed around the world that gave them more satisfaction than anything.
Course director Jim McKenzie said the blue skies and the green fairways yesterday were "what the world will remember".
He said: "These pictures make it all worth it. It was a massive effort and it is always the last day that people remember. This is a great advert for Wales and golf."
Mr McKenzie admitted that there were some dark periods when spirits were low but he added the reaction was incredible and the guys saved the day on Friday and Sunday.
In total there were 135 people involved in the effort. 90 of these volunteered from the UK, European countries such as Denmark and Ireland, and the USA.
Many of these camped at the site in vans, portable cabins and caravans.
Staff's main problem was getting the water off greens fairways and bunkers and spent their time pushing it towards the drainage and open gullies.
He said they got the forecast a couple of days before the tournament started and took measures for cutting the fairway an extra time before the tournament.
Chris Leach, 50, from Ringland, has been working at the course for nine years and has been cutting fairways during the tournament.
He said: "I've been here from 5.30am till 8.30pm every day. Some have been here a lot longer putting chip bark down for spectators to walk on. I've not had much sleep but it's been well worth the effort."
Mr Leach added: "In a way we're disappointed it went into Monday but I'm glad it finished in this glorious weather as it gives a better impression of Wales."
Dan Harden, 42, from Caerleon, took a week off work to volunteer at the course.
He was pushing water off the bunkers and the green calling it "a mammoth effort all round".
He said: "I'm tired but we're all really buzzing, it's going so well. I've had great feedback from the players."
Mark Hunt is a volunteer from Leicestershire and was staying in a campervan on site.
His job is to work with fertilisers making sure the grass doesn't grow too fast or too slow and looks good on television.
He called the work over the last few days a "shock to my system".
He said: "They have been very long days with not a lot of sleep but the spirit yesterday among all the lads was fantastic. It's put greenkeeping on the map, and the course looks fantastic now."

One of the drawbacks from my stumble last week (in which I managed break an arm and tear ligaments in my ankle) is that I'm not yet ready for travel, and thus wasn't able to make this week's Streaming Media East event in New York. Fortunately, there's lots of coverage around the Web. Here's a roundup of some of the CDN-related news emerging during the show:
- Ryan Lawler at Contentinople provides a summary of a panel debating whether the content delivery network (CDN) market is a bubble. Panelists were split on the topic, with a CDN executive expressing confidence while investors expected a shakeout.
- Analysts at Goldman Sachs today cut Akamai Technologies (AKAM) to sell from neutral and cuts its price target to $33 from $35. "Beyond valuation, we are also concerned about intensifying competition as private entrants proliferate and selected large network operators begin to eye the space," Goldman said. "While portions of Akamai's customer base are likely relatively immune from competitive pressures, we believe that the majority of Akamai's 2,700 customers will be able to put increasing pressure on the company as contracts come up for renewal this year."
- StreamingMedia.com has more about AT&T's expansion into the streaming Content Delivery Network space. AT&T brought in a heavyweight customer, Forbes.com which uses AT&T Enterprise Hosting at AT&T's Internet Data Center in New York.
- Panther Express named Steve Liddell its new chief executive officer. Liddell's appointment follows a number of milestones for the two-year old CDN, including the announcement of Dennis Morgan as CFO earlier this month, and its venture funding of nearly $16 million in November, 2007.
- Dan Frommer at Silicon Alley Insider has an interesting look at the valuation issues surrounding Limelight Networks (LLNW), which are heavily influenced by the outcome of its patent infringement case with Akamai. Jefferies analyst Katherine Egbert estimates that about half of Limelight's business – software downloads, live streaming, "non-traffic-related" CDN services, and its International business – doesn't infringe Akamai's patent.

Todd Tresidder is a well-known financial coach and founder of FinancialMentor.com and he was kind enough to send me a free kindle copy of his book How Much Money Do I Need to Retire? Today I'm going to share some of my thoughts on Todd's book.
When most people think about retirement they imagine a specific amount of money they need to accumulate in order to throw off the shackles of their day job and live the life they always dreamed about. They bounce around to some of the many retirement calculators available online in search of the "magic number" that will set them free. But if you have ever actually sat down and tried to calculate your own "magic number" you were probably left more than just a little confused and discouraged.
Why is that?
The Problem with Retirement Calculators
As Todd explains in his book, the conventional way of thinking about retirement planning has some serious flaws. The truth is there is no magic number. It's just not that simple. You can't just say "Okay, I've saved up $1 million. Today I can retire."
Retirement calculators are fatally flawed because there are so many variables that are unpredictable, including…
The rate of return on your investments. Sure you can "estimate" an average return of 7 percent but who knows if that's what you'll really wind up earning. What if your estimate was too high?
Whether your retire in a bull or a bear market. Those first few years after you retire will have a big impact on whether or not you outlive your savings. One common rule of thumb says that you can safely withdraw 4 percent of your nest egg each year (adjusted for inflation) and there will be a high probability that your savings will last 30 years.
But just because something is probable doesn't mean it is guaranteed. The sequence of your investment returns can make or break your retirement. I'll let this snippet from Todd's blog explain…
"The sequencing of returns problem is best illustrated in this example from William Bernstein. Assume you have a $1,000,000 portfolio with an average return of 10% split evenly between 15 years at +30% and 15 years at -10%. This would give you a compound return of 8.17% (compound is less than average due to volatility effects). More importantly, when you vary the returns sequences you get something truly shocking…
If you are unlucky and start your retirement with 15 straight losing years you can only withdraw 1.86%. Same annual returns, same average return, different sequence of returns, different result.
Conversely, if you are lucky enough to start your retirement with 15 straight winning years you can safely withdraw 24.86%."
Source – http://financialmentor.com/free-articles/retirement-planning/how-much-to-retire/are-safe-withdrawal-rates-really-safe
Inflation rate. In recent years the inflation rate has been pretty low. You might estimate the inflation rate at say three percent when you run your retirement calculation, but what happens if we have another period like the 1970s where the inflation rate often went into double digits? Your nest egg will have a lot less buying power and you'll have to sell off more assets to make up the difference. If that happens, the odds of you outliving your savings greatly increases.
Your retirement age. Let's say you're planning to work until the age of 65 and then ride off into the sunset. All of your financial calculations are based upon you continuing to earn a salary and sock away money until your sixty-fifth birthday. What happens when your employer lays you off when you're only 58? Or maybe you run into health problems and you're no longer able to work full-time?
Sadly, these type of scenarios are all too common and they can have dire consequences on your retirement plans. If you're forced to stop working earlier than planned you'll not only have less time to reach your savings goals, you'll also have to make you current savings last even longer.
When you'll die. Online retirement calculators ask you how many years you need your retirement income to ask, but in order to know that you would need to know when you're going to die. Are you going to die 5 years after your retire? 25 years? 40 years? Your saving needs will vary dramatically based upon how you answer that question but the real problem is that you're just guessing. Sure, you can predict you'll live 30 years after you retire but if you live longer you could end up spending your final years broke.
A New Way to Look at Retirement Planning
Todd spends several chapters exposing the holes in the conventional approach used to determine how much money you need to retire. I will warn you that some of these sections are heavy on math and can be a bit difficult to get through, but they're an important part of the author's case that conventional retirement planning is flawed.
But then comes the really good stuff where he lays out his Three Rule System which bases retirement calculations on cash flow instead of asset values. This is a key distinction that can change the very way you think about investing and retirement itself. You no longer focus on accumulating the most assets with the intention of slowly selling them off to fund your retirement. Instead, you focus on building cash flow and income streams to support you without ever having to sell your assets.
The key is to build an investment portfolio that throws off enough passive income to cover all of your expenses. Additionally, it should grow with inflation so you can live off the residual income from your investments without ever touching the assets themselves.
This falls exactly in line with my own thoughts about building multiple streams of income. This blog generates income for me (though a pitifully small amount right now) and I've also started a Sharebuilder account in which I invest in dividend paying stocks.
While I can't currently live off the income provided by either of those sources, my plan is to continue building revenue streams until they can support my family with little effort on my part. As Pat Flynn says on each of his Podcasts…"It's all about working hard now so you can reap the benefits later."

Medical Definition of Hematuria, microscopic
Hematuria, microscopic: Blood in the urine that is visible only under a microscope. There is so little blood that it cannot be seen without magnification. Microhematuria is in contrast to gross hematuria, in which the blood is so plentiful that it is visible to the naked eye. Hematuria in any amount is abnormal and should be further investigated. It may or may not be accompanied by pain.

what Sheila quoted Minnie as saying about performing
"Genius is the great unknown quantity. Technique supplies a constant for the problem. Fluency, flexibility, technique, precision, virtuosity, science - call it what you will. Why call it anything? Watch Pavlova dance, and there you have it. She knows her business. She has carried this mastery to such perfection that there is really no need of watching her at all. You know it will be all right. One glance at her and you are sure. On most of our players one keeps an apprehensive eye, filled with dark suspicions and forebodings - forebodings based on sad experience. But I told Gabrielle Rejane once that a performance of hers would no sooner begin than I would feel perfectly free to go out of the theatre and take a walk. I knew she could be trusted. It would be all right. There was no need to stay and watch."
-- Minnie Maddern Fiske, famous American actress of the late 19th and early 20th centuries

the production effect
I did come across something of interest recently though, that does offer some help with the task of memorization. It turns out that if you are attempting to memorize something and you say it aloud, the act of verbalizing it makes it more likely that you will remember it. It's called "the production effect", according to Psychology Today:
In this paper, these researchers document what they call the production effect. They looked at people's memory for items like a list of words. They found that if people studied the list by reading half of the words silently and the other half by saying the words out loud, that [the] words spoken aloud were remembered much better than those that were read silently.
The production effect works because it makes part of the list of items more distinctive. The words you speak aloud are now translated into speech and you have knowledge of producing the items as well as a memory of hearing them. All of this information makes your memory for the spoken items more distinct from the rest of the items that were read silently.
Good to know, but the production effect has implications beyond the learning of lines. One of the things students are confronted with in my class is the amount of concerted effort it takes to acquaint themselves with the character's reality and circumstances to the degree that they have a credible claim to embody that character. We call this process developing a "Who am I", or a way of perceiving one's self and the facts of one's life, history, and hopes and fears about the future. I provide students with a framework or set of questions to pose to organize their work on the Who-Am-I, and I urge them to write it out, for precisely the reasons that the production effect entails. The physical act of writing out these pieces of information, as well as the cognitive act of ordering all of these bits of information in relationship to each other, helps these pieces of information enter the BODY of the actor, as well as the mind. Whatever you may think of Julia Cameron and The Artist's Way, Cameron makes much the same point in advocating for the writing of "morning pages": in the act of writing out our thoughts, we process them physically. This may or may not yield answers to our personal or artistic conundrums, but it turns up the soil, so to speak, freeing up inchoate energies to travel neural pathways they may not have traveled previously. Or whatever.
I recognize the difficulty of this. I was recently introduced to something called "cognitive behavioral therapy", which is a process for examining damaging thoughts by identifying their origins or triggers, and then shining the light of reason on them by weighing evidence for and against them. It is a formalized process of self-reflection. In being asked to undertake this, I was handed a sheet of paper with a chart on it with columns which I was expected to fill in, which would guide me through the process.
The chart sat on my dresser for a week. I was immediately aware of the similarity between the Who-am-I process I ask actors to undertake and the cognitive behavioral therapy chart, and so I could hardly object to being asked to undertake it, and yet I felt a marked resistance to doing so. Perhaps that is partly a function of my (male) (Aries?) temperament, but I suspect many of us would similarly chafe under being asked to work out our inner struggles through a chart like this. It felt a little infantilizing. (Is it possible to infantilize just a little?)
I took note of the resistance, sat with it, so to speak, and eventually, I overcame it, and started to work with it. Did the earth move and the angels weep? No. Did I gain some insight about how to reflect on my thoughts and their relationship to my mood? Yes. As adults, we prize our autonomy, and can easily resent encroachments upon it, real or perceived. But any kind of technique is going to be an encroachment of sorts. Otherwise we could all just do what comes naturally and we would all be Awesome at whatever we wanted to do. It doesn't work that way. Freedom lies on the other side of technique, as a wise person once said.
Writing has its benefits for the initial phase of the Who-am-I process, and it is also enormously valuable for the personalization process that follows. Personalization has two components: particularization, in which the people, places and things that comprise the world of the Who-am-I are given detail which imbues them with an enlivening vividness, and investment, in which the actor uses relationships in her own life to endow these people places and things with the appropriate kind of signficance. Writing can be invaluable for both particularization and transference. In addition to the production effect, writing down pieces of particularization and investment force a ocmmitment to be made: if such things remain as mere thoughts, they are likely to remain undeveloped and incherent. Writing out these things asks the actor to bring an urgently needed definition to her imaginative approach to the role.
Uta Hagen is a tremendous resource in this regard: in both her books, she provides countless examples of the kind of writing on the role that provides this kind of enrichment to the actors work.
Of course, what you write when you write is also important. Just the mere fact of writing does not guarantee that the Who-Am-I will be productively developed and rich personalization will take shape. But writing it down is a step in the right direction, a gesture of seriousness to your creative self about your intentions. It beats not writing anything out every time.

"Some Body" REALLY made me think!
Well Courtney I have to say I was almost brought to tears this morning. Not feeling sorry for you, feeling sorry for me! I know we aren't the only women who struggle but I constantly let it get the better of me. Oh what it would be to have another baby and use the excuse still, "I just had a baby." Actually, post baby last time, I started running and looked great until my appendix needed to be removed so I just gave up. I'd never run before in my life and then all the sudden I'm the only person in my entire family that doesn't have an appendix...I just knew there was a connection.
Just as devastating to me was the fact that while I was 2 weeks away from having baby number 3, we had our "family" picture made, my Grandmother, all her children, grandchild, daughter-in-laws, you get the picture; and while I was just another face in a large crowd, I think my face was the largest, my nose was swollen, my boobs hung low my belly pushed people out of the way, my feet would not fit in any shoes I owned except for flip flops that made cut marks in my feet. Oh honey! So after giving up on having more children due to pregnancy health issues that were slowly killing me (I'd love more), I started getting back the body I almost think I'm doomed to have.So let me ask you this, "What part of your body do you love?" Reach down deep and think about it. I suppose I could have said my eyes...I do love my eyes but eyes are so expressive and can give away emotions to easy so they aren't very trustworthy sometimes.
And so, if I had to pick one thing I love about my body it'd probably be my Uterus. Yes, I'm the crazy one that said it, but my hips and stomach are marked like I was in a brawl with Freddy Cougar, my boobs are stretched down and out from nursing and on good days (or good bra days) might feel normal. My feet have widened, my nose didn't go back to pre-pregnancy size, my stomach never deflated to normal'; I could go on and on and on. It's humbling! It really is! But at least my Uterus gave me something I've wanted my whole life!
So, if God loves me the way I am, then that makes me smile. But I pray that if my works could be done better with a healthier body, free of diabetes and high blood pressure, then He can help me become healthy. But right now I think he wants to keep me humble so that my works and goodness are expressed from the deepest depths of me.

Among The Thirsty "What Love Looks Like" Lyric VideoCheck out the lyric video for Among The Thirsty's single "What Love Looks Like" on YouTube or embedded below. The single is now available on iTunes!
Among the Thirsty was established in Clearwater, FL in 2008 when the band began touring together. They released an independent single, "I'd Need a Savior," in 2009 that charted in the Top 10 of the R&R Monitored AC chart. The band shortly moved to Nashville to pursue their musical career adding their fifth member and drummer making the band the five-piece group it is today. Ryan Daniel is the lead vocalist, Brian Henderson is the guitarist, Brock Douglas plays bass, Riley Donnell plays both guitar and keys and John Wall is the drummer.
"Being signed to BEC is incredibly exciting," shares frontman Ryan Daniel. "When you're a kid, you dream about getting a record deal, and it's not until now where I realize how much work it takes to make that happen, and more importantly, being signed is the starting line. Getting signed is not 'Making it,' in fact, this is where the real work begins, and we are excited and blessed to be a part of a record label with such a cool history. This is a dream come true."
Among the Thirsty is currently working on their label debut that will release later this year. The album is a personal reflection of the journey hitting rock-bottom and finding God's gift of desperation there and through grace seeing one's worth to God. The band has been described as "The Beatles of Christian Music" by Jon Rivers of 20 The Countdown Magazine.

American actress, a dangerously sultry screen leading lady. After winning a local beauty contest she moved to New York, a well-scrubbed beauty who showed well in wholesome commercials. For ten years she honed her craft before the hit film "Total Recall," 1990, in which she made a big impact. The notorious shot of her crossing her legs, sans underwear, in "Basic Instinct," 1992, made her sizzling hot property.
The daughter of a dye maker and a bookkeeper, Stone was the second of four kids. With an IQ tested at 154, genius level, she was taking college classes at 15. A nerd in school, she was tall and skinny with thick glasses. In her teens she had a freak accident, when a horse she was riding bolted. He ran under a clothesline that caught Stone on the throat, leaving a scar that cosmetic surgery can not erase.
Blossoming into a swan, she was signed by the prestigious Eileen Ford agency to become a New York model. Modeling in turn paid for acting lessons. At age 22, Woody Allen put her in "Stardust Memories," 1980 and her wordless role stood out. After a few poor films, she did a Playboy nude spread in 1990, an exposure that launched her career into the femme fatale role of "Basic Instinct."
Stone married producer Michael Greenberg, whom she had met in 1984, but the union fell apart in 1987. She married San Francisco newspaper executive Phil Bronstein, 45, during a Valentine's Day party at her Beverly Hills home 2/14/1998. They adopted a baby boy, Roan Joseph, who had been born on 5/22/2000, bringing him home from Texas when he was a week old.
A non-smoker or drinker, she tends to be brutally honest and daring. The flip side of her smoldering persona bakes cookies and works diligently to raise money to fight AIDS. Determination is a central key to her personality; she never gives up.
On 9/29/2001, Stone's husband took her to a hospital emergency room because she was suffering severe head pain. She had experienced a tiny brain aneurysm and spent the rest of the week under observation.
After five years of marriage, the actress and her husband announced an "amicable" separation on July 3, 2003.
The actress filed a libel and slander lawsuit on December 13, 2004 against a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon. She claims that the physician falsely took credit for performing a face-lift that she never had. The physician's lawyer retorted that the surgeon "Never told anyone he did plastic surgery work on Sharon Stone, nor has he ever taken credit for it." Stone's lawsuit states that she "prides herself on her natural beauty."
The actress filed to adopt her 3rd child and 3rd boy in June 2006 and confirmed the adoption in late August. The child is named Quinn Kelly Stone.

Mike Witherill, Anish Savjani and David Kaplan are executive producing. CAA packaged and reps the film's domestic distribution rights. Johnson is repped by UTA and 3 Arts Entertainment.

So excited for this flick. Cast looks outstanding.
I wish Olivia Wilde was my drinking buddy…
Joe Swanberg will make his crossover here. Great production crew on this one. Alicia and Anish are excellent producers.

So you've got a job and you typically put in 40 hours a week, with the occasional overtime effort and even a little weekend duty.
You come home with a sense of achievement.
But you know what? That ain't working.
Maybe you hold down two jobs, juggling the demands of multiple bosses and finding just a sliver of time to eat between the day shift and the night shift.
And you think that's working? Guess again.
If you want to know the true definition of working, meet Darren Dennington, holder of four — count them — four jobs.
And did we mention he's incoming president of the Brooker Elementary School PTA?
Now that's working.
Dennington's labor-intense life is all the more remarkable when you consider his latest employment opportunity is self-imposed. For the past four months, he has been toiling on Parsons Avenue near Oakfield Drive as the owner of the new Copper Bell Cafe.
Why stop with three different jobs when you can have four?
"It's great being across from the (Brandon Regional) hospital," Dennington said. "Business is slowly building."
Dennington, 40, said it's not as demanding — or crazy — as it sounds. His other jobs have provided him a solid background in restaurant and service industry management. With seating for 30, the Copper Bell allows him to pursue the goal of owning his own place without being too taxing. And it's within walking distance of his office.
"You just kind of juggle," Dennington said.
Wait a minute. In my line of work, juggling is having two columns due on the same day. What Dennington does is hyper-juggling.
In addition to the restaurant, he's president of Service With Style, a hospitality group that will evaluate everything a restaurant, hotel or resort does through a secret-shopping process: staff interaction, marketing, service, etc.
One of the more recent Service With Style assignments: spend a week at a Sandals Resort in the Caribbean. He had to submit a report about his experiences.
That's working?
"It's an intense 110-page report that tells them absolutely everything from the guest perspective," Dennington said.
"It's a lot of typing," he added before smiling wryly. "But there is no complaining allowed."
A certified food and beverage executive, Dennington also serves as vice president of a "restaurant coaching" company called Prophit Management Group. It strives to help local restaurant owners with advice and training the big chains get from regional managers and corporate videos.
Dennington said they can assess the performance of managers and employees as well as help with guest complaints and financial management.
The job he did for O'Brien's Irish Pub chain in that area prompted them to permanently bring him on board, giving Dennington a third job.
"They didn't want to let me get away," Dennington said.
So how does he do it all? Dennington is quick to credit his co-workers, beginning with his wife, Shelli, who became his high school sweetheart when they were in the 11th grade in Niagara Falls, Ontario.
"When you have good people surrounding you, you can do a lot," Dennington said.
The couple came to Brandon 16 years ago looking for a warmer future and couldn't be happier about their decision to grow roots here.
In fact, I think what impresses me most is that despite his master multitasking, Dennington maintains a sense of community.
Not only does he stay committed to Brooker, where his daughter Kyra will be a fourth-grader next August, he recently staged a five-week "Cooking For A Cause" benefit at Copper Bell that netted more than $10,000 for local charities.
And in what may be the most important aspect of his jobaholic ways, Dennington says Shelli and Kyra get every free moment of his time.
That's all I'm saying.

Why do teachers go into teaching. According to www.ukedchat.com most people choose teaching as a profession for quite selfless reasons.
If we take the teachers that felt they could make a difference (29%), add in the teachers that love working with their students (26%) and top it off with the teachers that felt it was a vocation they wanted to follow (25%) we have accounted for 8/10 teachers.
The message for educational managers, policy makers and politicians is that 8/10 teachers enter the profession with an internal motivation to do the job well. We all, and I include teachers in this, have a collective responsibility to maintain that motivation. A positive teacher is far more likely to be effective in the classroom than the staff room whinger. Hopefully in the minority, the staff room whingers generalise everything to put weight behind their arguments. Common excuses include:
"That will never work with our children."
"They don't understand what we have to put up with."
"The problem these days is that parents…"
Everybody has a responsibility to stop the staff room whinger from polluting the school climate with their negativity. Teaching is a tough enough job without colleagues dragging each other down.
I had the great fortune this weekend to hear the wonderful Sir John Jones speaking at the National Association of British Schools in Spain. Among many treasures he shared was a delightful video that dramatically illustrates the power of a great teacher. Teachers have the power to transform lives, to motivate young people to aspire to greatness. You can't do that if the world is pressing down on your shoulders and you've lost touch with why you entered the profession. I'll leave you with the video that so delightfully illustrates the power of teachers to touch lives and make a difference. Syd Picton ran a football club for youths in North London and this short video is worth sharing with any teacher at risk of loosing touch with their initial motivation.
If you know a teacher becoming detached from their initial motivations for teaching show them the video and make a difference.

U.S. Soccer's Annual General Meeting
U.S. Soccer is holding their 2002 Annual General Meeting in San Francisco this week from August 7-10 at the Hilton San Francisco, where more than 550 people are expected to take part in various meetings and attend the Anniversary Dinner on Friday night.
Included in the four-day meeting this year will be the election of the U.S. Soccer President at the National Council Meeting on Friday. Other meetings taking place include Athlete Council, Regional Youth and Amateur meetings, and the annual meetings of the U.S. Amateur Soccer Association and United States Youth Soccer. At these meetings, the various groups also approve changes to bylaws, budgets and conduct the business for their various organizations.
One of the main orders of business at this year's National Council Meeting is the election of a U.S. Soccer Federation President. Current U.S. Soccer President Dr. S. Robert Contiguglia is running for re-election for his second four-year term as president.
The U.S. Soccer Board of Directors also holds a Board of Directors meeting at the AGM. The 41-person board met today in their quarterly meeting and considered policy changes and conducted the normal business of the Board of Directors. The minutes from the U.S. Soccer Board of Directors meeting will be published on ussoccer.com.
The National Council Meeting takes place on Friday morning and is expected to be attended by more than 550 people. The largest meeting of the week includes a review of bylaw changes, an affirmation of Federation policies adopted since the 2001 AGM, the approval of the 2003 Fiscal Year budget and the approval of three groups that are up for membership in the U.S. Soccer Federation. The United States Deaf Soccer Association, Vermont State Soccer Association and the Major Indoor Soccer League are all up for approval this year. In addition to the Election of the U.S. Soccer President, three U.S. Soccer Foundation Board Members are elected to a three-year term at each National Council Meeting.
One of the highlights of the AGM will be the Cocktail Reception and Anniversary Dinner on Friday night. The keynote speaker will be Lloyd Ward, the USOC Chief Executive Officer and a former CEO of the Maytag Corporation. Ward took over as the U.S. Olympic Committee's CEO in November 2001 and is the first African American to serve the USOC in that capacity. The U.S. Soccer President, who will be elected earlier in the day, will also address the crowd at the dinner.
Last year's Annual General Meeting was held in Atlanta, Ga., and Chicago, the home of the U.S. Soccer Federation, will host the 2003 U.S. Soccer AGM. The site of the AGM rotates each year among the four regions (Region I, Region II, Region III and Region IV).

What is ZELBORAF?
ZELBORAF is a prescription medicine used to treat a type of skin cancer called melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed by surgery, and has a certain type of abnormal BRAF gene.
Your healthcare provider will perform a test to make sure that ZELBORAF is right for you. ZELBORAF is not used to treat melanoma with a normal BRAF gene.
ZELBORAF can cause serious side effects, including risk of cancers. ZELBORAF may cause a type of skin cancer called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cuSCC). New melanoma lesions have occurred in people who take ZELBORAF. ZELBORAF may also cause another type of cancer called non-cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Talk with your healthcare provider about your risk for these cancers. Check your skin and tell your healthcare provider about skin changes, including a new wart, a sore or bump that bleeds or does not heal, or a mole that changes size or color.
Your healthcare provider should also check for cancers that may not occur on the skin. Tell your healthcare provider about any new symptoms that you get while taking ZELBORAF.
While taking ZELBORAF, you should avoid sunlight. When you go outside, wear clothes that protect your skin, including your head, face, hands, arms, and legs. Use lip balm and a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher.
Possible serious side effects of ZELBORAF include severe allergic reactions, severe skin reactions, potentially life-threatening changes in the electrical activity of your heart called QT prolongation, liver injury, eye problems, worsening side effects from radiation treatment, and kidney injury.

Malawi Overland Travel
Malawi is a thin sliver of a country landlocked between Mozambique, Zambia and Tanzania, and is often bypassed by travellers on their way to East or Southern Africa for safari.
But Malawi is a destination in its own right, and while densely covered in mountains, forests, game parks and villages, its biggest attraction is enormous Lake Malawi, home to amazing dive sites, tiny islands and over 550 species of fish.
Many Malawi overland tours and safaris take a few days off from their busy schedule to relax by the lake, fish, dive, swim and enjoy fresh seafood, while some tours venture deeper into Malawi's wilderness areas or cities like Lilongwe.
Known as the 'warm heart of Africa', the Malawian people are probably the friendliest in Africa, and proud of their impoverished yet beautiful nation. Overland travellers in Malawi can enjoy superb bird watching, laze away in hammocks on the lake shore or buy a wood carving or two. But most visitors marvel at the great scenery and enjoy a laid-back African atmosphere.
Malawi Overland Travel Guide
• Malawi is a long skinny country, only 850km long and 160km wide, and lies at the southern end of the Great Rift Valley, connecting East Africa to the South.
• Malawi is home to world's ninth largest lake - Lake Malawi, which dominates the whole country.
• The highest point in Malawi is Mount Mulanje in the south east which reaches a peak of 3 200m.
• The vegetation is mainly rough scrub in the countryside, while the central plateau is densely forested. The highlands are cool and wet, while the low lying regions can get humid in summer.
• Malawi is known as the 'warm heart of Africa', based on its temperate climate and warm friendly people, who are known for their traditional wood carvings.
• The rainy season runs from November to March, with flooding always a possibility. It's wise to take all types of clothing when visiting Malawi - you never know when you'll need what!
Travel Tips:
- A full valid passport is required for entry into Malawi
- Most Commonwealth countries, the European Union and USA do not need visas
- The Kwacha is the Malawian currency which you can exchange in Lilongwe & Blantyre
- However, curios and most activities can be paid in US dollars
- Malaria medication is recommended for Malawi
Dont forget to:
- Relax in a hammock on the beach
- Play soccer with some of the local kids
- Drink a green or brown Carlsberg beer
- Bargain for curios in Lilongwe's market
- Look for otters on a fresh water dive or snorkel
- Enjoy a swim on horseback in Lake Malawi
Quick Facts:
- Malawi is a long skinny country, only 850km long and 160km wide!
- It's dominated by vast Lake Malawi, the world's ninth largest
- Mount Mulanje in the south east is the highest point at 3 200m
- Known as the 'Warm Heart of Africa', the people are some of the friendliest anywhere

Hey guys, I'm only 17 and for about a year now I've started to notice that my hair has been insanely thin and limp.
For over a year I have watched as my frontal hairline has receded and I'm losing my temples/hair density all over.
After I take a shower I have to use a blow-drier on my hair or else it wont dry at all and will stay soaking wet.
Additionally, I've started to notice a lot of my hairs on my desks and textbooks when I'm studying, and when I scrub my hair in the shower I have hairs in between my fingers.
I've tried dropping conventional shampoos as I read the SLS and harmful chemicals in them can contribute to hairloss, and I replaced them with baking soda and vinegar, which hasn't done much except now I'm also starting to notice dandruff even after stopping the baking soda/vinegar shampoo.
I just recently went to a dermatologist who specializes in hair and he took close-up pictures of my scalp and hairline and wants me to come back in 6 months to see how things are. He told me that if I wanted I could try using Rogaine once a day until then and see if it's effective.
I've read everywhere the stories of shedding with Rogaine and it making things end up worse and I'm extremely scared and can't decide on whether to try it or not.
I'm only 17 and this has been devastating to me and is bringing my confidence way down.
What can you guys recommend and do you think that I should try Rogaine?

Old farm silo removed from Weitkamp Park
The last vestige of the farmstead once located on what is now Weitkamp Park has been removed.
Following a Sept. 8 decision by the City Council, Boumeester & Sons Excavating Contractors demolished a concrete silo that stood on the site for most of the 20th century. The cost of the demolition was $2,240.
The Park Board on an earlier 4-1 vote had recommended the demolition, saying an opening at the bottom of the silo made it a hazard to children who play in the park. Park Board member Suzy Fallon disagreed with the removal of what she considered a significant historical structure.
An 1897 St. Croix County plat book shows Catherine Donahue as owner of the farm that was then in the town of Hudson. A 1949 plat book lists Elouise Bringgold-Sweeney as owner. In 1979 the property was purchased by a group headed by Robert Lee.
A year earlier, the Park Board had looked into painting and closing the opening at the bottom of the silo.
Mayor Dean Knudson said at the Sept. 8 City Council meeting that removing the silo was the best option considering what it would cost to repair and maintain it.
Alderperson Lee Wyland disagreed. He called the demolition "a waste of a good structure" and said the silo could be repaired and converted for some use.
Alderperson Scot O'Malley was sympathetic to Wyland's view, but nevertheless voted with the majority to have the silo removed.
"I hate to tear it down, but I think it is unsafe standing," O'Malley said.
Knudson said the silo was becoming an "attractive nuisance."

"Just look at the flowers ........ BANG"
Just saw this one.
First, I don't think Dale would be "next in line."
Second, Rik would have retire #24.
Because I don't see either of them getting in before Chuck's #45.
However, IMO, the next one after Reggie should be Billy Knight.
And Reggie, Rah-jah, Mel, and George have set a really high bar. I see Chuck/ Rik/ Dale as more of a "Jeff Hornacek"-type thing, and we all laughed at Utah for retiring his number. I mean, I liked Hornacek as much as the next guy, but retiring his number?
Back in the 1991-92 season, which was the 25th-anniversary team, the Pacers named a "Hall of Fame" and put up plaques in MSA. I think it was Lewis, Buse, Mel, George, Roger, Billy, Chuck, Reggie, Vern, Slick - ????.
Somewhere, I've still got the "Burger King" calendar with side-by-side pictures of the legends and that 'current' team.
However, that was the first time in a long time that the Pacers really starting paying a tribute to the old ABA teams, in part because Chuck complained that he never knew anything about Mel Daniels until he joined the Pacers and met him really thought the Pacers should do more to honor thier history.
They have "Pacers Legends" displays throughout The Fieldhouse.
Why do the things that we treasure most, slip away in time
Till to the music we grow deaf, to God's beauty blind
Why do the things that connect us slowly pull us apart?
Till we fall away in our own darkness, a stranger to our own hearts
And life itself, rushing over me
Life itself, the wind in black elms,
Life itself in your heart and in your eyes, I can't make it without you
No way I want to see Rik get his jersey retired. If that would happen then, yes, I vote for Dale to get his retired. Dale is more deserving than Rik because I believe Dale had much more to do with the success of the 90's than Rik did.
I'm probably a little too biased to make a call on Dale getting his jersey retired... cuz I see both sides of the argument but if the decision was left up to me then he'd get it.
...And he never would've been traded either
Nuntius was right for a while. I was wrong for a while. But ultimately I was right and Frank Vogel has been let go.
"A player who makes a team great is more valuable than a great player. Losing yourself in the group, for the good of the group, thats teamwork."
-John Wooden
I would go with Rik before Dale. Spending your whole career with one team helps. If Dale had stayed in Indiana his whole career, he would have a better shot.
I think next up after Reggie is probably Jermaine in about 12 years.

Singapore: Psychiatrists in Singapore are pushing for medical authorities to formally recognise addiction to the internet and digital devices as a disorder, joining other countries around the world in addressing a growing problem.
About 87 per cent of Singapore's 5.4 million population own smartphones. Singaporeans also spend on average 38 minutes per session on Facebook, almost twice as long as Americans, according to a study by Experian, a global information services company.
Adrian Wang, a psychiatrist at the upmarket Gleneagles Medical Centre, said digital addiction should be classified as a psychiatric disorder.
"Patients come for stress anxiety-related problems, but their coping mechanism is to go online, go on to social media," Dr Wang said.
He recalled having treated an 18-year-old male student with extreme symptoms.
"When I saw him, he was unshaven, he had long hair, he was skinny, he hadn't showered for days, he looked like a homeless man," Dr Wang said.
The boy came to blows with his father after he tried to take away the young man's laptop computer. After the father cut off internet access in the house, desperation drove the boy to hang around neighbours' homes trying to get a wireless connection.
He was eventually hospitalised, put on anti-depressants and received "a lot" of counselling, Dr Wang said.
"We just needed to break the cycle. He got better, he was discharged from the hospital and I saw him a few more times and he was OK."
Tan Hwee Sim, a consultant psychiatrist at The Resilienz Mind clinic in Singapore, said that the symptoms exhibited by her young adult patients had changed over the years.
Obsession with online gaming was the main manifestation in the past, but addiction to social media and video downloading are now on the rise.
Singapore's problem is not unique, with a number of countries setting up treatment centres for young internet addicts, particularly in Asia where South Korea, China and Taiwan have moved to tackle the issue.
In Singapore, there are two counselling centres – Addictions Management Services and Touch Community Services – with programs for digital addiction.
Trisha Lin, an assistant professor in communications at the Nanyang Technological University, said younger people faced a higher risk because they adopted new technology earlier – but could not set limits.
Ms Lin defined digital addiction by a number of symptoms: the inability to control craving, anxiety when separated from a smartphone, loss in productivity in studies or at work, and the need to constantly check one's phone.

|This article is about a/an episode in Tensou Sentai Goseiger.
Miracle Attack Goseigers (ミラクルアタック・ゴセイジャー Mirakuru Atakku Goseijā) is the twenty-fourth episode of Tensou Sentai Goseiger. It introduces the Miracle Gosei Headders and Super Goseiger forms.
The Goseiger try to prevent Buredoran from obtaining an ancient Gosei power known for its destructive potential but remaining untamed.
Sensing it earlier, Buredoran unearths the site of the Abare Headder. However, he cannot reach the Abare Headder due to a barrier and sends the giant Semattarei of the Brocken Spectre to force the Goseigers into the open so they can retrieve it for him. When the Goseigers find Semattarei and form Gosei Great to fight him, they are caught off guard by the Yuumajuu as he resurrects several other members of the Yuumajuu that the Goseigers destroyed. The revived monsters overpower Gosei Great before a giant Gosei Knight intervenes, revealing that the Goseigers' opponents are nothing but illusions. The Goseigers exit Gosei Great to find Gosei Knight fighting Semattarei, as Gosei Knight reveals that the Yuumajuu are after the Abare Headder and tells the Goseigers to go find it first. As they arrive to the site of the Abare Headder, they find Buredoran and seemingly drive him off after an attack. The Goseigers are able to get through the barrier to the Abare Headder when Buredoran returns and steals it away, revealing that he had used them to break through the barrier. The Master Head explains that the Abare Headder has vast dangerous powers that makes Alata curious, but Datas interrupts the message to tell the Gosei Angels that Buredoran and Semattarei have returned and are attacking. As the Goseigers and Gosei Knight arrive to fight, Buredoran uses the Abare Headder to power up Semattarei and make his illusions real. As the revived Yuumajuu overpower the Goseigers, Gosei Red realizes that the Abare Headder is fighting against Buredoran. Gosei Red grabs the Abare Headder and senses that it is only angry and dangerous because it fears its own power. Gosei Red offers his friendship to the Abare Headder which causes it to transform into the Miracle Dragon Headder. It summons its companions and the five Miracle Gosei Headders conjure up the Gosei Tenswords for each of the Goseigers, transforming them into the Super Goseigers. With their new powers, the Goseigers force Buredoran to retreat and destroy Semattarei and his mirage Yuumajuu. The Gosei Angels thank the Miracle Gosei Headders for their help as the Headders become Miracle Gosei Power Cards to summon them later. Elsewhere, Buredoran is confronted by Makuin and Kinggon who express their disappointment in his actions and failure.

Hottie Trend: Rockstars Get So Much P*ssy
What could make Pete Doherty cuter than his baby face? Saving kittens! Apparently the professional musician and recovering addict is a big softie when it comes to petting little furry animals- which is weird cause we know Kate Moss has got a brazilian. He's opening his wallet like his heart and the indie angel is reportedly looking to fund an animal shelter in his hood. Doherty has even saved a one-legged hedgehog from the side of the road. You'll never believe what the hard rock/harder drugs man named it: Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle! It's sooooooooo sweet, we're not even worried he's going to give it crack (like he did his last cat). Awwwww, rescue me, Petey!
[DListed]
But if you really like to see hot rockers playing with the other kind of pussy, then you have to check out the Liars video for their hit Houseclouds. The shirtless lead singer and gentle giant, Angus, sings to kitty. Purr!

Wowzers, has it really been seven years since the Slowskys came out?
Back then they were all about home service being slow. Now it's business service. Funny stuff.
I do have no idea though why the turtles have a human nephew, or why a diner needs fast internet, but you know, that's using logic. And why use logic when there are talking turtles involved?

Tabling and Follow Up Technique
Having a strategically-planned, aesthetically appealing and well-staffed table on campus is one of the most standard ways of recruiting new members or arguing an important issue.
In tabling, members get the opportunity to explain the political philosophy behind YAL and logically respond to criticism. When tabling, here are some things to consider:
Strategic Placement
Find a central, high-traffic area on campus. These locations will seem pretty obvious to you. You may consider which school departments are likely to have a student body most interested in YAL and the mission.
Strategic Time
The ideal tabling times are typically 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The more you are exposed, the more likely someone is to stop by or return to your table. Be sure to arrive 30 minutes early to set up your table.
Contact Information
Besides promoting and recruiting for your chapter, tabling is also where you collect contacts. Have a sign-up sheet for interested students to gather the following information: name, email address, class year and major.
Face-to-Face Conversation
Always stand in front of the table. Standing behind the table will result in fewer sign-ups. Do not have a chair to sit on, and remind members not to congregate in a central group blocking the table. Always be inviting and friendly.
Tabling Materials
Provide a banner or sign, a display, loose pamphlets about your organization, loose flyers with information on upcoming meetings or events, and a sign-up sheet.
Tabling Schedule
Since organizing libertarians is like herding cats, set up a schedule with hourly shifts for the table. Make sure to staff the tables more during meal times and class changes. Before tabling begins, send out an email and text reminding volunteers of their assigned times.
While you want to portray your political philosophy and chapter in a good light, try to keep debates and arguments to a minimum. If someone approaches your table and refuses to let down, have one of your more articulate members pull him or her to the side and continue the discussion. Time wasted on a debate is time you could have recruited more members. Besides, who wants to approach a table where people are yelling at each other?
Stand Out
Design your display to draw in students. Whether this is done with colorful pictures, politically incorrect statements, or an outgoing group of talkative members, you want your display to bring passerby in. Be sure to dress in your best YAL gear and avoid huddling in a group.
Right After Tabling
The goal of tabling is, of course, to recruit new liberty activists into your chapter. So once you've got a list of names and contact info for your recruits, you'll need to take several steps to ensure a large percentage of them actually get (and stay) involved. Here's a list you should generally follow as you turn recruits into loyal YAL members:
Upload all of your new members to the YAL site. This will make it infinitely easier to manage your new signups. This will also connect them to the broader youth movement for liberty. Check out this short tutorial on how to use the member upload tool.
Send that email you promised. Include the time, location, and purpose of your meeting and encourage recruits to attend. Keep it casual and make clear in your email that attending the meeting does not require students to join YAL -- it's not a commitment, just a time to have fun, meet new people, explore new ideas, and decide if they're interested in YAL activism.
Here is an example:
Thanks for signing up to learn more about the <<Campus Name>> Young Americans for Liberty -- we have big plans this spring and I hope you'll be a part of them!
First and foremost, I hope you'll join us at our first meeting of the semester.
It'll only take 30-40 minutes, and it will be a great opportunity to make new friends, learn more about the philosophy of liberty, and find out what you can to do to advance freedom.
When: <<Day, Month Date @ Time>>
Where: <<Building, Room Number>>
Like our Facebook page and RSVP here <--- hyperlink your FB event URL
Come ready to learn, and feel free to bring friends!
<<Full Name>>
<<Campus Name>> YAL
Prior to Your Meeting
Send a reminder email. Be sure to keep your recruits and members in the loop with a reminder email.
Pick up your phone. A phone call goes a long way. Make it a point to call every new sign up and invite them to your upcoming meeting. This will be the difference between 15 attendees and 50.
Send a text message reminder. Get out a text reminder to everyone on your list with your meeting time and location just before start time.

California Walnuts' Eye on India: India Market Access Granted
CALIFORNIA WALNUTS' EYE ON INDIA: India Market Access Granted
FOLSOM, Calif. (July 15, 2013) – On July 12, the Ministry of Agriculture in India published notification of Schedule VI of Plant Quarantine Order 2003 allowing California walnuts to be shipped to India. Walnuts can ship immediately with special conditions under the phytosanitary protocol defined in Order 2003.
The industry has eagerly awaited this news following a two year market access process. "India will play an important role in developing the industry's future consumers", states California Walnut Commission Chairman Donald Norene. "Opening the Indian market is consistent with our strategy of market expansion" he goes on to say. Walnut production has doubled in the last ten years, reaching 496,000 short tons this year.
India's increasingly affluent middle class, currently estimated at 250 million, is expected to reach 400 million by 2020. Unlike other developing nations, over 30% of middle class income is spent on food and beverages. Walnuts are an ideal complement to the traditional vegetarian based diet because they contain alpha-linolenic acid/omega-3 fatty acid which is currently deficient in the Indian diet.
Although walnut consumption is currently low (0.02 lbs. per capita), with the predominance of walnuts grown in India exported, the industry expects California walnuts to be in high demand. "The Indian consumer has yet to experience the quality and taste distinctions that make California walnuts unique", states Charles (Chuck) Crain, President, Crain Walnut Shelling. "The majority of Indian walnut users report eating walnuts for their health benefits. Our industry's health research program has confirmed walnuts are beneficial for cardiovascular health which is a leading health concern in India," he concluded.
The expertise of both the California Walnut Board (CWB) and California Walnut Commission (CWC) working together helped make Indian market access possible. The Board evaluated the phytosanitary protocol and supported post harvest research that contributed to the review process while the Commission petitioned the Indian Ministry in working with colleagues at USDA's Animal Health and Plant Inspection Service (APHIS) and Foreign Agriculture Service (FAS) to facilitate the process.
"Walnuts are now the fourth leading export from the state of California, valued at nearly $1 billion dollars", states Dennis. A. Balint, CWC Chief Executive Officer. 58% of the crop was exported in 2011 to countries on five continents. California walnuts account for more than 99% of the commercial U.S. supply and control roughly three-fourths of world trade.

New Video: Nicki Minaj "High School"
Nicki Minaj is down for whatever in her latest visuals for Lil Wayne-assisted cut "High School." The pink-loving Barb is the boss' (El Jefe) girl but doesn't hesitate to heat it up with another man (Weezy). Draped in steamy cut-out bikinis and hip-hugging dresses, the made-under raptress steals the show in this mini-narrative.
The message of this video: Have an affair for once. Press play.
