Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 19/12/2012 (1700 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
LONGUEUIL, Que. -- Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield headed for a rendezvous with the International Space Station on Wednesday after a chilly blast-off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
The Russian space capsule carrying Hadfield, NASA astronaut Tom Marshburn and cosmonaut Roman Romanenko is expected to arrive Friday.
During his five-month visit, Hadfield will become the first Canadian to command the giant orbiting space laboratory when he takes over in mid-March.
It's a task former Canadian astronaut Bob Thirsk says will be challenging. Thirsk spent six months on the space station in 2009.
"Chris is the ultimate authority for any emergency situations that will occur on board," Thirsk said after watching the launch from the Montreal-area Canadian Space Agency.
But like all astronauts, Hadfield has been well-prepared.
"We train over and over for on-board fires, for cabin depressurizations, for toxic atmospheres," Thirsk said. "If these kinds of events should occur, you need to react quickly."
Thirsk noted he was getting mentally fatigued toward the end of his stint and Hadfield, as space station commander, will have to keep his crew motivated.
"Chris's job as commander will be to maintain crew morale and make sure the crew paces itself well," Thirsk said. "This is a marathon, not a sprint."
When Hadfield blasted off, his wife Helene, sons Kyle, 29, and Evan, 27, and 26-year-old daughter Kristin were there to watch and listen to the roar of the booster rockets.
"I'm feeling so happy," Kristin said. "I mean, my dad just went to space. It's amazing. I'm feeling amazing."
Gov. Gen. David Johnston described Hadfield's launch as "a great day for Canada, a great day for the world of discovery and innovation."

Redbank Valley wrestlers surging after strong December
On the final day of 2012, Redbank Valley wrestling coach Mike Kundick gathered his Bulldogs during a morning practice and reminded them that while December was a remarkable month for the team, February and March 2013 remained the months when everything mattered most.
"If we're satisfied with what we're doing right now, it might not be good enough in February," Kundick said. "Wrestling is not a sport where you can sit back and live on what you did in December."
What Redbank Valley accomplished last month certainly set an optimistic tone for the rest of the season. The Bulldogs had five place-winners and took 10th in their season-opening tournament, the 33-team King of the Mountain. They edged defending District 9 dual-meet champion Brookville, 36-33, in their first match. And they defended their title in the Christmas tournament they hosted.
Now comes the next challenge: Sustain the success through early February, when the PIAA team tournament begins, and into early March, when the state's individual competition starts.
"We have a long way to go," Kundick said. "But this first month was probably as hard a first month as we've ever had, and they really came out and wrestled well all month."
The Bulldogs went into Central Mountain's King of the Mountain competition fairly curious about how they'd fare in a tournament that featured 37 state placewinners, many of whom were from Class AAA schools.
To their delight, the Bulldogs discovered they fit in just fine.
Ty Haines (145 pounds) and Cole Shirey (160) reached the semifinals of their respective brackets before they lost. Both finished in fourth place.
After losing in the quarterfinals, Aaron Hook (182) battled back through the consolation rounds to place third, upsetting No. 2 seed Liam Korbul of North Hunterdon, 3-1, in the medal match.
Brandon Bailey (170) placed sixth, and Gruver (113) came in seventh. Two other Bulldogs, Kolbin Altobelli (106) and his younger brother, Tanner (120), were one win short of medaling.
A 36-33 victory at Brookville on Dec. 20 ended Redbank Valley's two-year skid against the Raiders. Haines put the Bulldogs on the right path when he knocked Zach Vroman from the ranks of the unbeaten with a 5-3 decision in the match's opening bout. Shirey, Hook, 220-pounder Cal Haines, heavyweight Ben Carrillo and Gruver won by pin. Luke Hinderliter denied Brookville bonus points when he held his own against Raiders standout Taylor Cudworth during a 5-2 loss in the 195-pound bout.
And Mitch Blose clinched the match for Redbank Valley when he beat PIAA Northwest regional qualifier Cole Clever, 10-8, in the 126-pound bout.
"I can't tell you how … awesome, I guess, is the word for that match," Kundick said.
January will provide Redbank Valley less rest time between competitions. The team has six dual meets in the month, including one Thursday at Brockway. And it also has two individual tournaments, scheduled for back-to-back weekends at Northeast and Grove City, respectively.
Then comes February and the true start of the pursuit for a District 9 team title, which Redbank Valley last won in 2008 — the Bulldogs claimed that crown through team points at the individual tournament; they, as the No. 1 seeds, were upset in the dual meet tournament.
"I have my older brother on that (2008) team, and Cole has his cousin, so we're all connected to that team," Ty Haines said. "We all have older people saying, 'Oh, you're not as good as us. You don't have a title yet.' So we want to get a title just so we can say, hey, we got this."

Liga BBVA | REAL MADRID
Gullit: "I have a feeling Mourinho will be back at Chelsea in the summer"
The former Chelsea player claimed that Abramovich wants the Portuguese back, and also said that the only reason he didn't return last season was because of the Blues' success in the Champions League.
Former Chelsea player and coach, Ruud Gullit, said he was sure that José Mourinho would return to Chelsea in the summer: "Rafa Benítez's main objective this season is to qualify for the Champions League, then he will make way for José Mourinho. I have a feeling that Mourinho will be back at Chelsea," he added. The Portuguese trainer was in charge of the London side from 2004 to 2007.
"I had a feeling already before the (Champions League) final that Mourinho was maybe coming to Chelsea. From the moment Chelsea won it, I think Mourinho said no because it's not a coincidence that he signed his contract just after," Gullit explained.
"Chelsea want him for next season. That is my feeling, if it's right I don't know. It took a while for Chelsea to find somebody new because they wanted somebody else, but who wants to go to a team that has just won the Champions League?"

Hi everyone, im a brand new newb with a question about the warrior class.
I was looking at the dps soul builds on Zam Rift for my warrior, and the most popular builds include Paragon and Champion souls. By example, http://rift.zam.com/en/stc.html?riftstc=1cukL.Aexc0AzcM.EzzzV0bb.xz or http://rift.zam.com/en/stc.html?riftstc=1cukL.Aex0hVucM.EhMzV0bh.b
Yet, Paragon specialized in dual wielding while Champion is specialized in 2-handed weapon. So... how am I suppose to use those builds? Does it means that I can use both 2W and 2H with the same efficiency?
Thanks in advance!

LETTER: Address the root issues of violence
Re: Dick Harrington and "Something has to give with gun culture," Chilliwack Times, June 12.
I am a "law-abiding hunter" and while I think the timing of Canada's NFA press release may have been questionable their ideas merit more of a look than Mr. Harrington's tired call for a renewed gun registry.
How a registry would have helped when the fact the shooter had a firearms licence didn't, is something I suspect Mr Harrington will be unable to answer.
As for the old specter of America's "gun culture," I assume that Mr. Harrington also will not be able to answer why, despite the highest ever numbers of privately owned firearms, the legalization of concealed carry handguns in over 40 states and the expiry of the assault weapons ban, firearms murders are at their lowest rate in the U.S. (and Canada) in over 40 years.
It is insulting to the reader's intelligence to insinuate that the problem of societal violence can be managed by controlling the instruments of violence while ignoring the root causes of poverty, inequity and mental illness. Perhaps, after all, there is more to the NFA's ideas than some would like us to believe.

The most important thing you can do right now is to be the best possible teacher you can be for this group. Don't think of it as something unimportant or second best; it could be the most important thing you ever do.
Why do I say this? One reason is because most people make their decision for (or against) Christ while they are still young. The older we get, the more set we become in our ways and the less likely we are to turn to Christ if we haven't already done so. The writer of Ecclesiastes urged, "Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of trouble come" (Ecclesiastes 12:1).
Pray regularly for those who are in your class, that God will give them a hunger for Christ. Pray also for yourself, that God will help you become an interesting and capable teacher. If you have never taught before, ask other teachers for advice. Think as well of ways you can communicate more effectively (e.g., by listening to them as well as talking). Ask God also to help you be an example to them of what it means to follow Christ.
Yes, someday God may open up new opportunities for you. But in the meantime, be faithful to what He has already called you to do. You won't always know what impact you are having but God knows, and He will reward you for your faithfulness.

Landor's Agility Paradox
Today's brands exists in a hypercompetitive and rapidly evolving marketplace. The pace of business is exponentially faster. Rigid consistency and top-down decision making no longer work as best practices. Landor's research shows that to succeed today, brands must embrace the agility paradox by mastering two contradictory strategies — honoring core tenets while simultaneously evolving to stay fresh and relevant. Analysis reveals that brands achieving this balance share six behaviors: adaptive, principled, open, responsible, global, and mulichannel. Their brand managers look to the future, listen to the marketplace, and meet challenges head-on. This is the new branding model for a new world.

Crisis Communication in a Disruptive Era
Burson-Marsteller's EMEA survey reveals the changing nature of business crisis and outlines how to respond. In the past year, "controversial company developments" were the type of crisis most frequently encountered, with the entry of new and innovative business models the second most experienced cause of crisis. These were followed by logistical difficulties, online/digital failure, negative social media campaigns, and regulatory scrutiny. But when asked about the next 6-12 months, new and innovative business models entering their sector topped the list with the arrival of "disruptive innovators," seen as more likely than any one of the traditional crises experienced in the previous year.

Using Your Vehicle For Delivery And Insurance Issues
Business By sugarandspice Updated 18 May 2005 , 4:34pm by melodyscakes
How does everyone handle delivery? Do you use your own personal vehicle, and if so did you tell your insurance agent that's what it's being used for? Or do you have a separate delivery vehicle? Most places I've worked have used their own vehicles to deliver with, but now that I'm the owner I'm wondering if that's legit. Thanks!
I don't have a legal business so I can't help you alot, but definetly check with your insurance agent. Also if you have a lien against the car, you probably want to check your loan papers, it might have a contingency in there that you can't use your vehicle for work related things like delivery.
If your insurance agent says that it's not going against your insurance policy, then yes you can use your car and you might be able to claim a tax deduction on your business taxes for it.
And if anything, this will get bumped up and someone with more experience can answer it.
Thanks for the reply. To be honest it wasn't something that I had ever really thought about but then two different people asked me about it at two different times on the same day and that made me wonder if I should be thinking about it! I talked about it with an insurance person that I was getting a quote for our business insurance from and he didn't know-he said no one had ever asked him about it. That sort of made me think that most people just deliver in their own vehicles. I haven't yet decided what to do about it.
i hadnt thought about insurance issues yet....but i do claim my profits/losses on taxes and also i write down milage, at tax time you get $0.38 per business mile you travel.
i am working on getting liscence, that will be probably at the end of summer, but i have a business name, and a tax exempt card for walmarts, hobby lobby and micheals, i've stocked up on cake boxes, .....now we just have to finish my kitchen (grrrrr)
thanks for question about insurance....when i get my liscence and am making more cakes i will check into that, or not...i'll just have to see.

Vienna, Dec 4 (IANS) Growth in the global manufacturing sector remained sluggish, pointing to dimmed prospects of a recovery in this sector, a UN report said here.
According to the world manufacturing production statistics for the third quarter of 2012 published by the UN Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), global manufacturing output only rose by 0.2 percent from the similar quarter a year earlier, marking the slowest growth since 2009, reported Xinhua.
Trends for the first half of 2012 were a mixture of dynamic growth in North America, East Asia and developing countries, and uncertainty in Europe, the report said Monday.
However, it indicated a stronger recession in Europe and a weakened recovery in North America and East Asia, as well as a sustained slowdown in developing countries.
UNIDO said industrialized countries have experienced a decrease in industrial production for the first time since 2009.
Its estimates also showed that during the third quarter of 2012, manufacturing output dropped in all major eurozone economies compared to the same period in the previous year.
However, the report said the rate of industrial growth of developing countries remained high. The manufacturing output of developing countries grew by 6.6 percent in the third quarter of 2012, compared to the same quarter in the previous year, but fell by 2.3 percent compared to the second quarter.
According to UNIDO's estimates, manufacturing output in China grew 9.2 percent year-on-year in the third quarter of this year, India achieved a nominal growth of 0.2 percent while manufacturing output fell in Latin American countries.

Assistant Principal Second Violin
What are you listening to right now?
A bunch of flute players – and not because it is my favorite instrument, but I get paid for it. I have been backstage helping the candidates during the second flute auditions as a "runner." Also, I am listening to Jason Eckardt's A Glimpse Retraced in preparation for my next FNM concert, and Jascha Heifetz playing a low F in his recording of the A minor Fugue by J. S. Bach.
How did you choose your instrument?
I was going to a music kindergarten, and after they taught us to read music and play a few instruments like the recorder and marimba, they had us choose the one we liked. I chose the violin. When I got my very first violin I was 5, and I begged my mom to let me take it on our first trip to Slovenia even when I didn't know how to play it yet. Guess who really ended up carrying the violin?
What is on your nightstand?
A lamp, a photo with my husband, and four books that I am reading at the same time (not a good idea) – not only for entertainment but for vocabulary building, all four on very different subjects: And There Was Light, by Jacques Lusseyran; The Rest Is Noise, by Alex Ross; The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, translated by Alistair Shearer; and Inés of My Soul, by Isabel Allende. You can guess why I am reading that last one. I have to confess that I like playing a game or two of solitaire on my iPhone before going to bed; it keeps my worries out of my head.
What guest artist would you most like to perform with?
That would be Mark O'Connor. Apparently I just missed his performance with the Symphony. Hopefully there will be a next time.
Besides your instrument, what is your most treasured possession?
I am really working on being detached of material possessions, but I do treasure my family and my Dr. Beat!

Now the 17-time Grand Slam winner may have another trick to take on opponents in the form of a gigantic tennis racket.
• With NBA ref Joey Crawford retiring, a look at his greatest hits
Federer pulled out the comically oversized gear for a kickoff event for the Brisbane International, where he also paired up with some television superstars in the form of SpongeBob Squarepants, his friend Patrick, noted world traveler Dora the Explorer and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, whom he took on with fellow pros Viktoria Azarenka, Radek Stepanek and Garbine Muguruza.
After the Brisbane event Federer will head to the year's first Grand Slam event, the Australian Open.

If you feel overwhelmed by the glut of abandoned shopping carts clogging Tucson's parks and neighborhood washes, the City Council has created a task force to respond to the problem and is soliciting members.
After hearing complaints from residents, the council voted unanimously to form a panel of residents and city officials to study ways to tackle this nuisance.
While the problem is citywide, it's most pronounced in the Midvale Park area and surrounding neighborhoods, said Mike Taylor, secretary of the Midvale Park Neighborhood Association.
"We've always known we've had a problem," Taylor said. "But when we adopted the parks and washes, we realized how bad it was. We also realized that no one was responsible for taking care of it."
Taylor said he counted over 300 abandoned carts in his area last year.
"And that's not all of them, just the ones we counted," he said.
Taylor said he and his neighbors have been in a protracted struggle with retailers and the city over the issue and decided to contact Councilwoman Regina Romero for help.
The city lacks a consistent policy when it comes to picking up carts, Romero said.
That needs to change so neighborhoods can be free of these metal and plastic eyesores that litter bus stops, parks and other public places.
But change might be harder than it it might seem, said City Attorney Mike Rankin.
Rankin said state law regulates shopping carts and what cities can do with them. He said any new ordinance would have to align with existing law.
However, he said other Arizona cities have passed ordinances that fight shopping carts within state guidelines.
Rankin suggested the committee could follow the example of the Phoenix suburb of Peoria, which passed a law in 2008 requiring retailers to install electronic devices to prevent their carts from being removed from their premises, to contract with a licensed cart retrieval company. The measure also imposes fines of up to $500 and jail time of up to 30 days for customers who remove a cart from the site.
But Romero said Peoria's example might be a little bit too heavy-handed for Tucson.
She said the committee shouldn't look at outside examples in the beginning. Instead, she wants them to come up with a solution that's the right fit for Tucson, and that doesn't break the bank.
"I want them to find a good win-win for Tucson," Romero said.

Atari's 1982 port of Pac-Man for the Atari VCS (aka the 2600) was one of the games responsible for the Video Game Crash of 1983. It was (rightfully) greeted by groans from reviewers and fans alike. However, if you were lucky enough to own the Atari 400/800 home computer, you were treated to a much better version of the game.
But, if you were really, really lucky you got the Atari 400/800 Pac-Man with box art from the fever dream of a madman. I could not find the artist's name, but this guy (or girl) took the concept of Pac-Man to unexpected heights.
The box portrays Pac-Man as a giant-headed, bucktooth jogger running from Blinky through a maze that looks like the forerunner of World 1-1 from Super Mario Bros while eating air hockey pucks.
The more common version of the box is a touched up version of the original Atari 2600 Pac-Man box. It's nicely done, but can't match the "Jogging Man" version for sheer originality.

I normally don't add my comments to links I post, but I felt compelled to write a few words on this one. In Why the Raspberry Pi will Save the UK, Pete Nelson rightfully cites the Industrial Revolution's beginnings in the UK as a contrast to the sorry state of British manufacture in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Unfortunately, the libertarian in me couldn't help but notice he forgets that the Industrial Revolution that gave rise to Britain's greatness did not happen because of government actions of the kind that he advocates to restore Britain's industrial fortunes.
This is where the Raspberry Pi can save us: it's now affordable for the government to equip any child in this country with a machine which they could take home with them and play with. Furthermore if the government keeps its promise to stop giving lessons about how to use Microsoft Word and start teaching some decent subjects we will soon have a generation of highly-skilled workers at our fingertips ready to export product to the world.
I applaud the technology and ingenuity that created the Raspberry Pi and Mr. Nelson's desire to see the industry of his country set right. However, getting the government to "equip" children with a computer and depending on government promises to fix educational problems that it created seems an odd place to pin the hopes for the future.
A nice marriage of the Marvel Superhero Cartoons of the 1960s and the trailer for 2012's Avengers Assemble film. My only complaint (more of a nitpick) is the 1990's Nick Fury clips. This particular nit can't be picked, though, since Director Fury didn't appear in any of the '60s Marvel cartoons. All in all, very cool.

Outer Limits Comics was the local comic shop in my town. I wasted many an hour and dollar there. After getting to know the owner, I offered to help him launch a website to promote the store. The metaphor for the site was a ragged, well-read comic book. I can almost smell the old paper.

Gospel Light Baptist Church is one of the largest churches in central North Carolina. They hold a summer conference attended by youth groups from hundreds of churches from around the United States.

What makes a farmer?? A Stan Rogers trilogy...
OK, I didn't watch the S-Bowl this evening. I don't have a TV here. But I observed the bruhaha on DU over the God Made A Farmer commercial and thought I'd better check it out. I watched the commercial.
Then I checked out the U.S. census data: There are over 3 million 'farmers' in America. And there are 85 million truck owners in America (2002). Seems like God made a lot more trucks and truck sales people that she made farmers.
I became a farmer ... well, at least a grower, of blueberries... 21 years ago. We left California and started a different life in Oregon, while still maintaining our 'other jobs' - my wife as founder/CEO of an animal health company and me as a software developer. Oddly enough, one of the influences for our life change was music, songs about farming life.
So, as a counterpoint to the Dodge truck commercial, I offer you a few songs about life, associated with farming. First, three by Canadian folk legend Stan Rogers:
Field Behind the Plow, as performed by Stan's son, Nathan Rogers:
and Lies performed by Stan:
finally Night Guard, Stan again:
and just for icing on the cake, David Francey doing Torn Screen Door:
Watch the field behind the plow turn to straight dark rows,

The USDA's latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report shows a slight uptick in corn prices, a 125-million-bushel increase in projected corn exports and a 9 percent drop in corn stocks.
The report, released on Wednesday, indicated an 8 percent jump in corn exports to 1.3 billion bushels.
"Continued strong export sales and a rising weekly shipment pace for U.S. corn during March support the higher expected export level as does an increase in projected global corn demand," the report said.
The 2013-2014 season-average farm price for corn was raised to $4.40 to $4.80 per bushel, compared with $4.25 to $4.75 per bushel reported in March. Despite the increase, this price forecast is still 30 percent lower than corn prices seen in 2012-2013.
Globally, the USDA sees corn production increase by 6.4 million tons with a 2-million-ton increase for Brazil and a 1-million-ton increase for both South African and Russia.
The report also showed a 30-million-bushel increase in U.S. soybean supplies for 2013-2014, projected at 3.49 billion bushels. Exports were forecast higher as well, adding 50 million bushels to reflect a record year-to-date shipment and large outstanding sales.
"Despite relatively high prices and record harvests in South America, U.S. exports have remained strong, especially to China, where imports from the United States have already exceeded the previous marketing-year record," the report said.
The range of season-average soybean price was narrowed $12.50 to $13.50 per bushel.

Could political and environmental concerns affect the way consumers pick the color of their cars?
Yes, says Paul Czornij, technical manager for the BASF Color Excellence group in Southfield, Mich., where he gave a tour of the color trends of the future for Products Finishing magazine.
The theme of the forecast, "Making Headway," indicates a movement towards more color shades than in previous years, Czornij says as he and BASF staff showed off the 65 new colors they are presenting to automakers and designers around the world.
"We look to develop color spaces that capture a look that says 'this is me'," Czornij says. His annual automotive color trend report looks 2-3 years out and is based on research efforts by BASF's team of global color design experts.
For example, Czornij calls the North America color trends "Aspire To," saying there is growing enthusiasm for social responsibility, good character, and traditional values and virtues that emphasize education and courage.
"The ideal deeply rooted in North America that anything can be achieved through effort has not declined," Czornij says. "Ivy League universities, where aspiration thrives, are being evaluated anew as venues for intellectual exploration. Cool deep and dark tone colors with the traditional feel have been refreshed by means of depth and brightness. Solid brown, which gives a weighty impression, creates a perennial sense of assurance and stability, evoking feelings of appreciation for the earth."
Czornij says BASF's new color offerings demonstrate how new and brighter interpretations of colors with different textures will become increasingly important to designers and consumers, as people worldwide strive to highlight individual uniqueness and regain a more "human-friendly" life outside of the digitized world.
"There is so much emotion and psychology attached to color, which makes it an ideal expression of one's image to the outside world, and it works so remarkably well with car body shapes," Czornij says. "You can truly see innovation in action."

Vikings quarterback Christian Ponder doesn't have to worry about his starting job, at least for the time being.
Though he turned the ball over four times against the Lions this past Sunday, Minnesota coach Leslie Frazier told reporters that he's not considering replacing Ponder with anyone else.
"He had his mistakes," Frazier said, via the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. "But the fact is the quarterback position is much more magnified. He just happens to play the position with the most scrutiny. We had other guys, trust me, that when we watched the tape, the scrutiny that needed to be had in those moments, they are well aware that they have to play better"
Frazier isn't going to blast his quarterback after one poor showing this early in the 2013 season. But Ponder should be on notice. If these kind of performances continue, then Frazier may be forced to make a change.

The battle against the most recent snowfall in Cambridge is still being waged.
"We're still fighting it," said Interim Service-Safety Director/Street Superintendent Tom Lanning. "Every snow's different. I can't write a manual on it. Every time it happens it's different. We attack every snow differently."
Seven inches of snow fell on the city a few days ago. Trucks plowed snow to the sides of roadways, it accumulating in piles and rows a few feet deep in places, dotted by chunks of snow both large and small.
Temperatures then dropped, freezing the chunks into icy boulders and turning still slushy roads into ice-covered and treacherous surfaces.
The volume of snow created problems as well. As trucks plowed residential streets, automobiles parked near the curb became "snowed in." Motorists found it difficult to both pull from the curb and return to the same parking spot.
The Street Department will plow such areas, but only if motorists move off-street first for a time.
"If they get a street cleared -- we've had several call and say 'I've got all my neighbors to move' -- we'll come down through there as we're out and plow it out," Lanning said. "If they get out and move them, we'll come through."
He won't dispatch a crew off-hours or for a single parking space, however.
Keeping roads as clear of snow is critical in residential areas. As snow piles up along roads, motorists often park farther away from the curb.
"They come out into the street farther," Lanning said. "Is it a big deal you can't get a plow through there? Probably not. What if a house catches fire? Fire trucks are the same width."
Lanning's advise to automobile owners who park curb side if snow is forecast?
"Move them at some point," he said. "Don't wait."
Street crews first clear primary routes, followed by secondary routes and residential areas. Finally, alleys are addressed when possible.
"We're trying to re-plow alleys and clear them, and bust loose what we can," Lanning said.
However, snowplows have no downforce to break through ice, and road salt is not an option on alleys; it destroys the base on gravel and chip-and-seal alleys, and is too expensive for use on anything other than paved streets and avenues, he said.
Residents along some city roadways are reminded they might be required to move their automobiles from the street. Section 76.12 of the city's codified ordinances governs emergency snow routes. It reads as follows:
"For the purpose of this section, an emergency snow situation shall be determined by the disaster committee of the city.
"The following streets are hereby designated as emergency snow routes: Southgate Parkway, Wheeling Avenue, Steubenville Avenue, Highland Avenue, Clark Street, Oakland Boulevard, Edgeworth Avenue, North First Street, North Fifth Street, North Eighth Street, North Ninth Street, North l0th Street, Jefferson Avenue, and South Ninth Street.
"During emergency snow situations, parking may be restricted on any of the designated snow routes, as determined by the disaster committee.
"Any vehicle left standing on a designated snow route during a snow emergency may be towed away at the owner's expense."
Roadways are not the sole publicly traveled surface to become treacherous when snow falls. Section 97.03 of the city's codified ordinances governs sidewalks. It reads as follows:
"No owner or occupant of lots or lands abutting any sidewalk, curb or gutter shall fail to keep the sidewalks, curbs and gutters in repair and free from snow, ice or any nuisance, and to remove from such sidewalks, curbs or gutters all snow and ice accumulated thereon within a reasonable time, which will ordinarily not exceed 12 hours after any storm during which the snow and ice has accumulated.
"No person shall sweep, shovel, or pile, or cause to be swept, shoveled, or piled, any snow , ice, leaves, branches, twigs, brush, grass, or other waste upon any of the streets, avenues, alleys, sidewalks, or other public ways of the city.
"Whoever violates this section is guilty of a minor misdemeanor."
The office of City Property Maintenance Code Enforcement Officer Kim Conrath is tasked with oversight and enforcement of the law.
The recent harsh weather necessitated leniency from the city administration, Conrath said. But should complaints regarding a property be voiced to administrators intervention could be deemed necessary.
Questions? Contact either Lanning, 439-1240, the City Garage, 432-7748, or Conrath, 439-2822.

Have you seen that the FDA has reversed one of its rulings? This information comes via Jon Walker at FireDogLake. (And note the importance of protesting bad rulings.) [The emphasis within the quotation is mine.] [Here]
This is a rare piece of good news reflecting the positive impact investigative journalism and public outcry can have. The Food and Drug Administration has partly reversed its horrible decision to grant a drug company an exclusive monopoly over an already commonly used medication, which allowed that company to jack up prices 15,000%.
ABC NEWS ran the following piece earlier, giving us a glance into why the FDA probably changed its tune. Here is some of the pushback from advocates for those pregnant women who are at risk of losing their babies. [Here] [Again the emphasis is mine.]
The March of Dimes is teaming up with the leading maternity experts to lobby for KV Pharmaceuticals to reconsider its decision to boost the price of a drug that prevents premature birth from $10 a shot to $1,500 a shot.
In February the FDA granted KV Pharmaceuticals the exclusive right to ..."produce a progesterone shot used to prevent premature births in high-risk mothers." [Here] Soon after the drug company "...announced that that they would list the drug at a price 150 times higher than the cost of the non-branded version women have been using for years. The shot has been available in unregulated form from specialty compounding pharmacies for years for $10 a pop, but now, marketed as Makena, the drug will cost $1,500 per dose -- an estimated $30,000 in total per pregnancy."
There are many lessons to be learned from this, not the least of which is the importance of pushing back against each and every instance of corporate greed.
This particular drug company did not even conduct the expensive, initial clinical trials for this drug. The National Institute of Health conducted those trials and the expenses came out of our tax money. This company has simply attempted to step in and literally cash in on this drug.
Robert Reich reminds us of an important fact--and let's run it up the flag pole: [Here]
Can we please agree that in the real world corporations exist for one purpose, and one purpose only — to make as much money as possible...
Need we say more?

First things first: the letters stand for "Laugh Your Grits Off." Second things first: the name springs from LYGO's early beginnings, when the group hosted Sunday brunch comedy shows. The combination of food, mimosas, and some of the city's best up-and-coming comedians caught on, and soon the company was organizing post-breakfast standup shows throughout the city. But while their menu may have expanded, the goals of LYGO remain the same: to bring comedy to a wider DC audience, promote a greater sense of community amongst comedians, and to provide performers an opportunity to launch and build on their careers, both in and out of the city.

Tuesday Ten: 10 Styles From the 90s That Are Trending Again
In case you've been hiding under a rock this past year, the 90s are back in full force… And celebrities are seriously diggin' it!
From overalls to jellies to crop tops galore, the couture from our Britney Spears-loving days is taking over the fashion world in a major way. (I'm just hoping we don't start seeing butterfly clips and studded belts anytime soon). So for today's edition of Tuesday Ten, I thought we'd take a look at some of the most notable styles you need to make this trend happen by gaining a little inspiration from some of the most fashionable celebs.
Check it out:
- Plaid Shirt. Tying a flannel around your waist adds a fashionable appeal to almost any look. I mean do we ever see Khloe Kardashian out and about without one?
- Jellies. Never in a million years did I think jellies would make a comeback, but here they are!
- Mom Jeans. A.K.A. "high-waisted jeans" are seriously every where. You can't walk into an Urban Outfitters without spotting a pair. Everyone from Miley Cyrus to Anne Hathaway are a fan of these vintage jeans.
- High Tops. High tops have always been in for people who rocked the "punk" look, but now we're seeing even the most high-fashion celebs wearing them. Kim Kardashian showed off her love for them earlier this year!
- Overalls. Overalls are another thing I never thought would EVER make a comeback, and now I own a pair. Selena Gomez proved how cute they can be for a warm summer day!
- Snapbacks. And tattoos. (Just kidding). While these have always been a big thing for guys, they just recently got popular for girls, too. Just last week Miley Cyrus rocked one while shopping in LA.
- Crop Tops. Do I even need to say anything more? I mean, come on! These are the new t-shirt.
- Dr. Martens. If you want to add a cool, retro statement to your outfit, Dr. Martens are the perfect touch. Kendall and Kylie Jenner are big fans!
- Chokers. What's more 90s than a choker? This is your go-to accessory if you're looking to add some vintage appeal to your look.
- Denim Jackets. Denim-on-denim came back in a big way this year, and in order to make that look happen, a jean jacket is a must!
Are you into the 90s style comeback? Comment below!

" Brand: Remington / Hair Care Type: Hair Straighteners "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I got these as a birthday present off my mam in 2010 I think. When I first opened them I was slightly apprehensive as they said 'shine therapy', my hair gets greasy quite quickly so I hoped that they wouldn't make my hair look even more greasy but I needn't have worried. My hair is very long (right down to the bottom of my back), really thick and naturally quite curly.
The straighteners can be bought for around £40 which I think is a good price and a lot cheaper than many other brands like GHD's and I also think the Remington straighteners work better. They aren't too heavy to hold and have a long cable which can be very useful. There's a heat proof pouch included with them which I find useful as my mam lives far away so the bag comes in handy when I'm going to visit her. The straighteners are silver with a pale blue/green coloured strip on top. There's a digital display on top which shows the temperature of the straighteners and 2 buttons to turn the temperature up and down. on the side there's a button that twists to be able to lock them closed.
The temperature ranges from 150-230 degrees and goes up and down in 10's to the desired temperature. I tend to use them at 200 as at this temperature it helps to straighten my hair a lot quicker but I think anything above that will be too damaging to my hair. If you have fine hair 150 would be suitable I think. The straighteners heat up within 30 seconds so there's no waiting around for them.
One of the things I love most about them is the fact they have a safety feature on them which turns them off after 60 minutes. I haven't ever left them on before but its nice to have peace of mind that if I ever did leave them on then they will turn off automatically. I do however think that 60 minutes is too long and it should only be 30 minutes as I cant imagine many people needing them on longer than 30 minutes anyway. It only takes me about 10/15 minutes to straighten my hair with these and I have a lot of hair! So I think it would only take the average person about 5 minutes with them.
The ceramic plates helps my hair glide through the straighteners smoothly without catching and pulling any hairs and I don't think these straighteners cause as much damage to my hair as previous ones have. They leave my hair silky and smooth without it looking greasy as I'd expected.
The disadvantage about them is that its very easy to knock the buttons on top as they are right where I hold the straighteners so I do have to keep stopping just to put it back to the temperature I wanted.
Overall I love these straighteners, they're a good price and have lasted me a long time and if they ever break Ill definitely be buying another pair. My hair stays straight for hours after I've used them which I've never experienced with any of straighteners in the past. They also can be used to curl my hair too. I would definitely recommend them to everyone!
UPDATE: July 2013 the straighteners kept on cutting out like they had a loose connection. I told a friend who said she owned the same straighteners before and hers had started cutting out then one day there was a bang and they stopped working but it had also blew up the wall socket and broke that. So after hearing that story I binned the straighteners and bought some more. As they were a gift I didn't have the receipt and don't know how long the warranty would have been for.
I moved away from home into student accommodation and I realised I needed a straightener and a hair dryer. I normally use my older sister's hair straightener back at home and she wouldn't let me take them with me to my student accommodation so I decided to buy one of my own. My older sister had a really good Remington straightener but I decided to look for something even better in the same brand. I shopped around on Amazon and luckily at the time they had deals for straighteners and I managed to get these ones for half the usual asking price; I got mine for £30.
These straighteners are really amazing; they really bring my hair back to life. First of all the ceramic coated plates condition my hair with Vitamin E. I don't know how they thought of it but it really does wonders for my hair. When I wash and blowdry my hair, my hair looks a bit lacklustre. Once I run the straightener through my hair, my hair ends up looking like I had it straightened at a professional hair salon. The ceramic plates are protected against styling products and scratching. I add styling products to my hair and use the straightener over it (my hair) so it's nice to know it won't affect the plates.
There's a digital display that helps you adjust the temperature setting which goes from 150 to 230 degrees Celsius. I like to use the minimum temperature possible as too much heat can be damaging to the hair, so this means I have a bit of control. And my hair still looks good, feels smooth and looks shiny at the setting I use which is 180 degrees Celsius. To make sure it stays on the temperature I've chosen, I press the lock button to do this.
I'm always in a bit of a hurry and it helps that it only takes 30 seconds for the straighteners to heat up to my desired temperature setting. Also even if I've forgotten to switch them off (though it's never happened), these straighteners are designed to turn themselves off automatically after 60 minutes. The 3 metre swivel cord makes it easy for me to move around with it and provides a better reach.
Once I'm done with it, I tend to lock it using the hinge lock and store it away in the heat-proof pouch provided just to be safe.
This hair straightener is good for most hair types and the manual advises you on the temperature setting to use according to your hair type. I've had mine for more than 6 months now and I've had no problems with it all. And because they're so good, my younger sister who's moved away from home to start her first year at university bought the exact same hair straightener too.
I was looking for a good hair straightener for a long time, my old one - Remington wet 2 straight was giving up after a few years of almost daily use. I decided to go for Remington shine therapy, because I believe this is the best quality without breaking the bank. I was very happy with the previous one and this one is also not a disappointment. Light green, slim design fits nicely in my hand. Useful lock on the side, twist to lock or unlock. On top there is a digital display with on-off switch, two +/- adjustable temperature controls, which varies from 150C to 230C. By pressing the + button the temperature goes gradually from 150C to whatever you want till reaches 230C, if pressed and hold the temperature will jump to 230C.I must say it takes a bit longer to heat up than any others I've tried, but definitely worth the wait, because leaves hair silky smooth, even after a couple of days, this could be because ceramic plates are infused with shine enhacing conditioners. My long hair defiantly feels softer and super smooth. The straightener is very easy to use, however sometimes I manage to press the digital buttons, when I hold the product in my hand. I DO recommend it to anybody. I got my in argos half price for £37.49, I believe the offer ends in spring catalogue 2012.
When I moved back to Cambridge to live with my Aunt and Uncle, I didn't have a huge amount of my own things, so kindly my Aunt gave me her old straighteners, which weren't great, so recently I decided to buy my own hair straighteners, and after my hairdresser recommended Remington Shine Therapy straighteners, and as they were on sale in Argos, I decided these would be the perfect little treat for me.
The Shine Therapy straighteners are about the average compared to other styles, with a long cable plug, which make it easier to straighten hair further away from the plugs. The straighteners are silver, with a blue-ish grey top, which have the Remington logo, the buttons, and the viewing window, which shows the temperature of the straighteners. Also on the left hand side of the straightened, is a lock system, which is a real bonus for being able to take your straighteners away, and enables them to fit perfectly in the silver travel bag, which Remington have provided with the straighteners. Personally, I think the straighteners are really professional and stylish looking, which is not the main thing, but is a very nice bonus.
Remington claims that Shine Therapy straighteners give hair 86% more shine to hair, which is a real advantage to people who would want more shine to their hair and that the ceramic conditioning help condition hair , which again, if true, would be perfect!
The straighteners were very quick to heat up, roughly 3-4minutes, and can be adjusted to a range of heat levels, the maximum temperature is 230 degrees, which is probably the hottest that anyone would need, as it gets even the tightest curls out, perfect! I personally love using around the 200 degrees level, but for stubborn flicks in my hair, 230 is a really effective level to get out all the flicks and kinks in my hair.
Using the Shine Therapy hair straighteners were really easy to hold, as it fits perfectly in my hands, which I feel some are really tricky to hold and can mean that you don't get the finish you want, but the shine therapy are completely different. The straighteners basically gave me the best straight look I've ever had, it looked perfect, but also looked healthy and gave my hair a definite bounce. And I have actually received a huge amount of compliments for how straight my hair was, and was often asked how I got my bob looking so professional, which I honestly put down to Shine Therapy's amazing ability to straighten my hair perfectly. I was unsure about the huge difference in how shiny my hair was, and not sure 'Shine therapy' was the best way to describe the straighteners, but with the great straightening ability, I don't care about the shine!
Remington Shine Therapy hair straighteners are available in larger supermarkets and larger pharmacists , and cost around £70, but there are a lot of offers on currently for this product, as I got my for £38 from Argos, bargain!
Heres the thing, straighteners are bad for your hair... we're all aware of that. However for the first time in years i let my natural hair grow through and for over a year trimmed off where the dye had once been. So it was all natural and in perfect condition. I was bored of what i thought was bad condition so i wore hats to flatten and smooth instead of using any kind of heat product. My hair was finally healthy and past my chin :) my sister bought me these straighteners as a birthday gift and because they were sitting around i decided my hair was in good enough condition to use them and using them a few times a week wouldnt do too much damage ... I was wrong. not even at full heat (230) i was using them at 180 -190 ... i instantly noticed something was different and put it down to me not using them right. so i tried again two days later... my hair went from smooth to frizzy... after about 5 uses, i could no longer brush my hair let alone get it to sit down straight. After two weeks the majority of it was burnt off and in the end i had to pixie crop it. so i stopped usig them again. Not completely sure it was the straighteners i didnt bother throwing them away incase i needed them to attempt to make the frizz sit down.
I went on holiday for two weeks and when i got back i found that my mum had been using them as her old ones broke. two days ago she had all her hair pixie cropped off after her hair suffered the same damage.
i know its the straighteners now... maybe its just the actual ones i have.... but maybe not.
Use them at your own risk...
After my Nicky Clarke's had an untimely demise, I popped straight out the shop to buy a new pair of straighteners. There was a choice of 4 - one being these Remington pair. I decided on these due to their claim of shine therapy - my hair could use the extra boost! The first time I tried them, I was pleasantly surprised - the temperature was set to 200 degrees (you can set it between 180 and 230 depending on your hair type) and it only took 5 minutes to make my hair sleek and straight. After using them for about a week, the shine therapy seemed to have worn off - my hair wasn't very shiny and the straighteners were bringing out a frizz in my hair (partially due to the weather, I'm sure) but they just wouldn't do what I wanted them to. In the end, I had to go out and spend a fortune on products to get my hair looking how I wanted it - I've had these straighteners for about 5 or 6 months now; the shine therapy has worn off, it takes 20 minutes to straighten my hair and I have to re-do it halfway through the day because it's started to curl. I have quite thin hair but I coat it with hairspray to keep it in style and give my layers some volume, but the straighteners just aren't as proactive as they were before. My main problem is the fact I keep burning myself - the plates heat up very quickly and are located on the edge of the straightener, so there is no protection for your fingers should they aimlessly go to pick them up. I miss my Nicky Clarke's!
I wanted GHD straighteners but could not afford them so decided these were the next bets thing. they were about £70 and are aparently good for rescuing your hair due to the treatment on the plates. I must admit I have not really noticed a difference but I like to think it has helped. The straighteners heat up really fast, you can select how hot you want them are the plates are good size to straighten either long or short hair. The straighteners have generally been very good ad served me well. I wouldn't say they were amazing but have very few flaws. I recently bought GHDs however I must admit after all the hype I was disappointed and have gone back to using my Remington straighteners. I have had them a year and a half now and they still heat up very fast, if anythin they sometimes get too hot and I find it hard to hold them but overall they have been very good and I have been very pleased with them.
I got these straighteners at Christmas after my last pair started crackling! My sister has GHD's but I just wouldn't pay over £100 for a pair of straighteners. These are by Remintong and they were on offer at Boots at the time for £34.99. Normal price is around £70.
The straighteners come with a silver pouch that you can put your straighteners in, ideal if you are needing to transport them somewhere soon after using them. The straighteners heat up to 230 which I think is sufficient for anyone to straighten their hair. The length of the cable is quite long so you can plug in to a socket and move to a mirror without too much struggle.
I think these straighteners are really great. To be honest I prefer them to my sisters GHD's. I feel they just glide straight through your hair. Any other straighteners would not have a lasting effect on my hair as it is quite thick and frizzy. But these keep my hair sraight and sleek all day. I would recommend you use a heat defence spray with these as they are really hot.
One point you should remember is that when you turn the socket on, this does not automatically turn on the straighteners. You have to turn them on via the button on top! They also take around 3 or 4 minutes to fully heat up. But I get over this by turning them on when I am drying my hair so they will be ready when I am finished.
Overall these are a really great straightener and I would definitely buy Remington again.
I got these as a Christmas present off my mum after my GHD's broke and I had nothing to use. I wasn't too excited about it to tell you the truth, but I had to use them if I wanted straight hair. My hair is naturally really wavy and I hate it.
First time I used these I was pleasantly suprised they heated up STRAIGHT away I burnt my hand on them. With these you can control how much heat you put on your hair and the highest is 230oC. Which is great for me, my hair is dead from constant bleaching and dying and is in seriously bad condition. They are enrinched in Avodcado oil and Vitamin E which is beneficial to your hair. Obviously its still not good to use straighteners on your hair because of the heat can seriously ruin the structure of your hair and dry it out. But at least you are getting a small benefit from it, they glide easily on your hair and straightens effortlessly.
I tend to use these on the lowest setting I possibly can. The plates are quite slim which I like, it straightens hair so much better than when I was using my bulky GHD's, they also created a bit of shine and gloss for my damaged straw hair. My hair has been so much healthier since using this baby! I also use these to curl my hair aswell and they work great.
They automatically shut off after an hour which is good if you're like me and you're half way up the street and suddenly think 'did I remember to turn my straighteners off?' they also beep after around 5 minutes after switching them on, I really have no idea why they do that. I thought it was them switching off but its not.
The straighteners are a baby blue and look really cute. They have 3 buttons and is so easy to use. The one at the bottom is to switch them on after you've plugged them in. And the other two have a plus sign and a minus sign like + and - to control the heat you put on your hair, try and use these on the lowest setting possible to prevent heat damage. Depending on the type of your hair, I tend to go somewhere in the middle but if I dont want to work as hard straightening my hair I will use them a bit higher. You can also lock the straighteners so they close together which is good, I always take these travelling with me.
These are definitely the best straighteners I've tried and my hair can't thank them enough. They are around £60 in drugstores such as Boots and Superdrug but on Amazon you can get these for £30. These straighteners are an absolute bargain! The only small downside I'd say is when you are using them on your hair. I tend to click the buttons a lot accidently so I either switch them off or turn them up and down. This doesn't happen a lot though, only when I get paranoid over it.
I bought these straighteners about 6 months ago. I found these very large and bulky when trying to straighten hair. The wire is very long and thick so not ideal if using it for travel purposes as it takes up a lot of space in a small trolley case. It takes a long time to heat up (just over a minute). You can set the temperature of the straighteners yourself which is really handy. However, the temperature controls are near the end of the straightener so when straightening you do keep changing the temperature accidently. There is a temperature lock on there but you have to remember to put it on. The heat proof cover that is included is not very good. If you put the hot straighteners in the cover then the cover will burn so you will need to wait till they have cooled down before placing the cover on top. The price is high (around £60 in shops) but there are special offers around for third off or half price so look out for these. It does leave hair feeling smooth and silky and it glides very easily on hair. Also , there is a 5 year guarantee which is useful.
brilliant straighteners. for about 2 years my daughter wanted straight hair. we tryed all the top names we could to straighten her hair,but she would always have kinks. you see she as naturally springy curls has she is quarter jamaican. her curls are just like springs,if you pull 1 and then loose, it springs straight back into shape.
we would spend about 2 hours trying to straighten her hair with other brands,however with these it takes about 30-45 minutes.
other brands would also leave her hair looking like a wig and frizzy when finished. not these. the oils condition and leave the hair with a sleek sheen as you straighten. they are light weight too. the heat settings are just right to straighten tuff curly hair.
the only problem i have with these straighteners is that the buttons are close to were you would naturaly hold the straighteners whilst straightening your hair. although to balance this out, the buttons can be locked to keep the temperature you select.
I bought these just before the Christmas of 2009 as a little treat for myself ,and the fact that they were on offer with £5 of its marked price helped me decide in a instant! And what an investment they are therapy Conditioning Straighteners are fantastic and use ceramic straightening irons which are filled with a mixture of conditioners as well as avocado oil, which help to moisturise the hair from root to tip to help control damage while using them
The straightening plates have been infused with a mixture of conditioners and avocado oil that are supposed to evenly sort your hair out during styling. according to the instructions the conditioner in the coating on the straighteners comes to the surface of the ironing plates during heating. These conditioners are then smoothed on to the hair during straightening to add shine and protect the hair from awful heat stress. and if you use some kind of anti frizz to prevent fly away hair , then with these you do not need it.
I was shocked at how well these worked, my daughter has GHD's and the price she paid for them was silly, i had used her straighteners in the past and since having these i can honestly say that they are loads better, and of course do not cost as much , even my daughter has used them and now said she would like to have some.
They make your hair have a nice gloss and if you are like me and have used hair polish in the past with these you do not have to use anything to give your hair a gloss i think it must be the oil that does this. I also like the fact i can straighten my hair and it stays straight even after sleeping on it there is no need to actually go over it in a morning just a quick brush and away
you go, which is great if you have to rush about , so i tend to do mine on a night time which gives me plenty of time in the morning,
There is just one issue i had with these and that is the buttons they are pretty close together and if you are straightening on a low heat you may actually touch them and it will get hotter so be warned, otherwise they are fantastic, i have had my hair straightened at the hairdressers in the past but i have to say my hair feels a lot better after using these than they did from the hairdressers.
Overall i would recommend this to those that would like the GHD's but can not afford them, they do a better job straightening and as an added bonus make your hair shiny for no extra cost they are a great tool and as a lover of remington they have actually made something that is a must for everyone. These do work really well on wavy hair too, it might take a little longer than it does if your hair was straight but you still get great results,
You can purchase these from boots but do watch out for offers as you can find them at various prices in the high street or if you prefer to shop on line you can buy them from Amazon for £34.24 which is cheaper than the Goodmans on line store that charged my daughter £46.99 as i stated do look around as some places like the high street so have some great offers.

Anne Estelle Rice painted this portrait of the writer Katherine Mansfield in Looe, Cornwall. Mansfield had joined her there for part of the spring and summer of 1918 in hopes of regaining her deteriorating health. Of the occasion of the portrait she wrote, 'A. came early and began the great painting — me in that red, brick red frock with flowers everywhere. It's awfully interesting, even now. I painted her in my way as she painted me in hers: her eyes … little blue flowers plucked this morning.'1 Rice, an American by birth, had travelled to Europe for the first time in 1906. She met Mansfield in her Paris studio, and the two women became close friends.
Strong colours, an emphasis on line, and the use of pattern repeated over the entire surface are the main features of Portrait of Katherine Mansfield. The predominant colour was suggested by Mansfield who, like Rice, loved red. The colour is used expressively, its vibrant intensity enhanced by the contrasting green shadows on neck and hands.
There are no softened outlines, and contours are left boldly as literal lines at the jaw and ear, and around the figure's left leg and hip. Rice was unconcerned with 'finish', and the raw canvas shows through in places, as does the under-drawing. Nor is there any of the fine detailing of face and hands found in conventional portraiture. Rice's main concern was the integration of the figure with the background, and she achieved this by bringing the background forward, the repeating floral patterns of a jug of flowers, wallpaper — or maybe a patterned shawl — drawing attention to the surface.
Rice's style was formed in Paris, where from 1907 she was part of the circle around Scottish expatriate artists John D Fergusson and Samuel John Peploe. She quickly absorbed the expressive colour of the fauve painters, including their method of juxtaposing primary and secondary colours. Her innate feeling for decorative line and pattern was also stimulated by the brilliant costumes and sets of the Ballets Russes.

LINWOOD — Mainland Regional High School graduated its Class of 2013, which commencement speakers defined as "different" and "unique."
The 343 graduates marched onto the football field before a standing-room-only crowd on a sunny final day of spring Thursday.
Jessica Dyrek, of Northfield, the selected speaker for the class, said "no one word can really describe them."
"The Class of 2013 is fun," Dyrek said. "We are respectful, we are most certainly smart, we are unpredictable, and we are strong. The best word to define our class, though, is different. Different in every good way possible. Different in the sense that we are all the same, yet each and every one of us has the ability to stand out. Different in the way that we not only look and speak, but in the way we behave; as individuals and as a whole."
Salutatorian Shannon Meglathery, of Northfield, asked, "Want to know about our senior year?"
"Since the first day of school this year, there was a continuous loop in the back of my mind saying, 'I'm ready, I'm ready'," Meglathery said. "The greatest challenge of this year was dragging myself out of bed 180 times. We all have woken up for school at 7:45 and thought to ourselves, 'Oh well, I guess I'm not wearing any pants today!' On a grander scale, I spent less time focusing on what I couldn't change, and more time on accepting reality, especially in regards to the college process. We cannot change the cards we are dealt, only how they are played."
Valedictorian Morgan Rann, of Linwood, joked about how the class all came together from three separate towns, Linwood, Northfield and Somers Point, "and became one here at Mainland Regional. It is a scientific miracle that when you mix a cardinal, a panther and a jaguar, you get a mustang."
"Just like the bricks and tiles that make up Mainland, our legacy as the class that reshaped Mainland will last long into the future," Rann said. "The Class of 2013 is unique in that we have never taken no for an answer. We have never backed down from a challenge. We have accomplished what people insisted would be impossible. We held classes during a construction upheaval, where our teachers had to compete with the sounds of drills and hammers. ... We have turned tragedy into victory, and although we are forever changed by the loss of our peers, friends and teammates, we will never forget their legacy. Finally, with the support of this community, we became the most Undeniable school in the nation."
Included in the list of graduates in the program were Nicholas Conner, of Northfield, and Dean Khoury, of Linwood, who died in a crash in 2011. They were listed with hearts next to their names, which signified that they were "in our hearts, but no longer with us."

Nothing makes Rutentuten more grumpy then being awoken from the dead. Every time he gets settled in, all cozy in his sarcophagus deep in the pyramid, those darned archaeologists barge in, making such a racket. Just when he thought he was finally rid of them, they were followed by the worst interruption of all, American tourists. It's no wonder mummies have the reputation of being less than friendly. I'd be pretty curmudgeonly too if you interrupted my 5000 year nap.
