Armstrong School District pulls leasing school to Adelphoi Village
Elderton Junior-Senior High School will remain empty, at least a little longer.
Armstrong School District solicitor Lee Price said at the beginning of Monday's school board meeting that the directors had decided to pull a controversial resolution to lease portions of the building to the Adelphoi Village alternative education program.
The board announced the one-year, $90,000 lease proposal during its open caucus last week.
"After further review of the lease terms and conditions, there is insufficient support to even have it on the agenda any longer," said Price. "That matter is being pulled completely."
Price's statement was met with scattered applause from a large group of residents who turned out to oppose the lease, but he stressed the decision should not reflect poorly on Adelphoi Village.
"That's not to imply that the district doesn't believe Adelphoi operates a good alternative education program," he said. "In fact, most of the kids in the program are our students. But (the board directors) just don't feel that it would be appropriate to have that at the location out in the Elderton area."
Adelphoi Village is a not-for-profit child care agency based out of Latrobe that works with children who are struggling to overcome social, emotional and behavioral difficulties. Many of the opponents expressed concern about the fact that Elderton Elementary School still operates in another part of the high school building, and Price said that may have been a factor in the district's decision.
"Although there's a separation of the building internally, they just didn't feel comfortable with it at this point in time," he said after the meeting. "Money was not the only factor."
However, there were other residents present who opposed the Adelphoi lease for another reason. The proposed Everlasting Elderton Charter School has expressed interest in renting the facilities from ASD if the charter is approved.
Amanda Bartosiewicz, a member of Everlasting Elderton's founding board, said although the charter application submitted last month listed Towne Hall along Route 422 as a possible location for the school, the high school would be preferable.
She said ASD has ignored the charter school's request to rent the space.
"We have sent several communications to the administration asking to open communication about leasing a portion of the Elderton High School building," she said.
"When you're filling out an application to open a charter school, you must have a letter of intent (from a location) to even submit an application. When we contacted the administration, it would not give us a letter of intent to lease. Although the Towne Hall is a beautiful building, it is not our first consideration. Our first consideration is the Elderton High School building."
Bartosiewicz also said that Everlasting Elderton has budgeted more to rent the building than the $90,000 proposed by Adelphoi. However, the charter still
must be approved or denied by the ASD board which has until March 12 to announce its decision. In the event the charter is denied, Everlasting Elderton can appeal to the state if it collects the signatures of 1,000 residents or 2 percent of the district.
If the charter is approved, ASD projects the district would have to pay approximately $2 million more towards charter schools in its annual budget than it would if it's denied.

Archdiocese sells Brighton campus to BC
BRIGHTON The Archdiocese of Boston announced that agreements have been reached to sell the Chancery buildings and Bishop Peterson Hall to Boston College and relocate the central administration to Braintree, according to a May 24 statement.
The three Brighton buildings on nearly 20 acres will net the archdiocese $65 million. The archdiocese said it expects the property sale to close by Aug. 1, 2007.
The plan already has the approval of the archdiocesan Finance Council, the College of Consultors and the members of the corporation of St. Johns Seminary, according to chancellor James P. McDonough. The sale also needs the approval of the Holy See, he said.
We have reached a significant milestone in announcing this agreement, said Cardinal Seán P. OMalley in the statement. Proceeds from this sale will allow the archdiocese to invest resources for the benefit of our parishes, clergy, St. John's Seminary and the many important programs that serve a large number of people.
The archdiocese has also struck a deal with The Flatley Companies to use a nine-year-old, 140,000 square foot building on Brooks Drive in Braintree. Although the archdiocese has not released the terms of the agreement, they are very reasonable, according to Terrence Donilon, spokesman for the archdiocese.

Madonna makes West End debut
Pop star Madonna has completed her West End debut in the play Up For Grabs at London's Wyndhams Theatre.
Fans queued in the rain for a chance to see the 43-year-old's first stage appearance since 1988, when she appeared in David Mamet's Speed the Plow in New York.
Security was tight as the doors opened and staff quickly ushered those with tickets inside the theatre, which holds just under 700.
Members of the press were not allowed into the auditorium, but ticket-holders soon revealed their mixed views on her performance.
'Nervous start'
Madonna left the theatre through its front entrance shortly after the performance ended, making her way past crowds of onlookers and photographers to reach her car.
Many of those who saw the production thought the singer improved as she grew more confident in the second half.
Victoria Bateman, 32, said: "I thought she was a lot better than expected, she was excellent."
Malva Green, 41, said: "She was nervous to start with but got a lot better."
Mark Collins, 28, said he did not think Madonna put in the show's best performance, but added: "When she got into it she was really good."
Madonna stars in the play, penned by Australian David Williamson, as an art dealer who tries to manipulate her friends when a Jackson Pollock painting goes on the market.
The cast of seven are directed by Laurence Boswell, whose recent credits include A Day In The Life Of Joe Egg and Popcorn, by Ben Elton.
Preparations for the play were hit early on when matinee performances were dropped because of Madonna's recording commitments.
The singer's West End stage debut was also delayed by technical problems.
Hollywood rivals
The show officially opens on 23 May for a 10-week run.
Madonna has also appeared on stage with then husband Sean Penn in the 1986 off-Broadway play Goose and Tomtom.
The singer has also appeared in various films. Before finding fame, she wrote her own part in a filmed stage play called In Artificial Light in 1980.
After good reviews for her role in the film Desperately Seeking Susan in 1985, Madonna fared less well with 1986's Shanghai Surprise and Who's That Girl a year later.
Madonna will next be seen in her husband Guy Ritchie's new movie Swept Away.
She is also reportedly making a cameo appearance in the new James Bond movie, for which she sings the theme tune.
Madonna will be competing for audience members with her good actress friend Gwyneth Paltrow.
Hollywood star Paltrow is starring in her West End debut Proof at the Donmar Warehouse.
Madonna and Paltrow are just the latest US celebrities to tread the boards in the West End, including Kevin Spacey and Nicole Kidman.
Also currently performing in the capital are Matt Damon, Casey Affleck and Summer Phoenix, who are all appearing in the play This Is Our Youth.

Food in America is more than a necessary aspect of survival: It's a part of our language, culture and social experience. We gather around meals. Our idioms and phrases make food references. We represent and define areas and events by the meals or snacks that coincide. While this may be many people's America, dinner isn't on the table for every family. Despite misconceptions about hunger, a lack of food is a sincere problem for Americans every day, including the approximately 57,100 individuals who depend weekly on the St. Louis Area Foodbank.
Started in 1975, the St. Louis Area Foodbank provided 135,000 pounds of food in its first year, according to the organization's website. Almost four decades later, the organization is responsible for distributing more than 25 million pounds of food to 26 counties in Missouri and Illinois. The organization may have grown immensely—but so has the need, which seems ever-increasing.
According to the 2010 Hunger Study, here in the U.S., one in eight people depends on the Feeding America network, of which St. Louis Area Foodbank is a member.
"The vast majority of the people we're trying to feed are probably working, they're just working poor," says Foodbank president and CEO, Frank Finnegan, noting the effect caused by the 1990s decrease in manufacturing jobs and increase in service jobs. "If you're making close to minimum wage or a little bit more, it doesn't keep pace with the cost of housing, the cost of utilities, the cost of transportation—and, of course, those bills are always going to take priority, so what's left over is what you spend on food."
Finnegan explains the inherent problems of hunger. "If you're a child and you're hungry, you're not going to be able to focus in school, or if you're a senior citizen living on a fixed income and you can't eat nutritionally, chances are you're not receiving the full benefit from the medications you're taking."
Benefiting the St. Louis Area Foodbank is the upcoming Wine Women & Shoes event at The Ritz-Carlton. Featuring the best reds and whites—plus shopping and auctions—this event will be a "fantastic good time," says board member and event co-chair Barbara Bunning-Stevens. She notes other event highlights include a Best in Shoe contest, a red carpet and, of course, the 'Shoe Guys'—volunteers who greet guests, pour wine, deliver shoes on silver platters, and maybe even are "a little flirty, to get guests in the mood to bid!"
Another notable happening includes the 'Keys to the Closet' raffle for a chance to win a closet full of items like gift certificates and designer goodies, approximately valued at $5,000. While the shoes and shopping are key elements, Bunning-Stevens stresses that attendees will be reminded of the Foodbank's No. 1 priority: feeding the hungry. Cheers to that.
ON THE COVER: Wine Women & Shoes takes place on Wednesday, May 29 at 6 p.m. at The Ritz-Carlton to benefit the St. Louis Area Foodbank. For more information, call 292-6262 or visit winewomenandshoes.com/stlouis2013.

Type of Document Dissertation Author Taylor, Erica Courtney URN etd-07072011-103933 Title HBCU Crises and Best Practices in the Discourse of Renewal: A Crisis Communication Case Study of Three Institutions Degree Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) Department Mass Communication Advisory Committee
Advisor Name Title Broussard, Jinx C. Committee Chair Lundy, Lisa Committee Member Mitchell, Roland Committee Member Shipka, Danny Committee Member Constant, David Dean's Representative Keywords
- Best Practices
- Historically Black Colleges and Universities
- Discourse of Renewal
- Public Relations
- Crisis Communication
Date of Defense 2011-07-07 Availability unrestricted AbstractCrises have been a part of all societies over the course of time. Leaders of small, primitive societies may have dealt with these crises by directly communicating with their citizens or by taking other hands-on approaches to crisis management and recovery. However, in large post-modern technological societies, leaders must find more efficient ways to handle and recover from crises. This qualitative study examines three crises that occurred at three Historically Black Colleges or Universities (HBCUs) in the last six years.
Crisis communication planning and practices are explored with a special focus on elements of the discourse of renewal theory each institution implemented. The majority of existing research and literature in the field of crisis communication focuses on crisis management in corporate or governmental environments. This study, through each case presented, provides valuable insight into crisis communication in the educational sector. Additionally, the unique character and challenges of Historically Black Colleges and Universities are presented to add to the body of knowledge about these institutions. The ultimate purpose of this study is to develop a best practices model for continued renewal for each institution featured in this case. Generalized best practices are also provided for all HBCUs, students, scholars, and journalists to use in implementing and studying future post-crisis renewal efforts.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/1/2013 (1670 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Don't be one of dozens of Manitobans who find their vehicles wrecked by fire due to broken block heater plugs or worn-out extension cords, says Manitoba Public Insurance. MPI said a "cracked extension cord, or block heater cord with a corroded plug" can spark a blaze.
"Each year in Manitoba about 1,000 vehicles are damaged by fire; several dozen are the direct result of damaged extension cords or worn blockheater/in-car heater plugs," said an MPI news release. "The majority of these fires take place in winter."
MPI says people should get new cords if theirs have wires showing, or they're cracked.
"With personal safety in mind, people are advised not to plug in their vehicles within a garage or any other enclosed structure," said the release.
MPI advises people not to drive over cords, and to pull the electrical cord out by its hard end.
They also recommend that a qualified mechanic should look at a cord every fall.

SEC Opens The Pantry, Looking For Clues
Formal investigation is underway concerning the company's 2005 restatement.
SANFORD, N.C. -- The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launched a formal investigation into The Pantry's July 28, 2005 restatement, questioning the company's accounting on a sale-leaseback transaction that dated back to 1999, according to reports on Foodnoted.org.
That restatement triggered an informal investigation that was mentioned in the company's 2005 10-K, a fiscal report. Since then, the investigation became formal, and comment letters between the company and the SEC have been exchanged. The most recent development is a letter to The Pantry, dated July 25, 2006, stating that the SEC has "no further comments at this time," the report stated.
The company's 10-K filing for fiscal 2006 mentions the investigation:
"On July, 28, 2005, we announced that we would restate earnings for the period from fiscal 2000 to fiscal 2005 arising from sale-leaseback accounting for certain transactions. In connection with our decision to restate, we filed a Form 8-K on July 28, 2005. The SEC issued a comment letter to us in connection with the Form 8-K, and we responded to the comments."
The statement continues, noting that in September 2005, the SEC requested that the company "voluntarily provide certain information to SEC Staff in connection with our sale-leaseback accounting and our decision to restate our financial statements with respect to it." That request was part of an informal investigation described as a "fact-finding inquiry," the company stated.
On the restatement, the company said, "If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm business and the trading price of our stock."
The company announced on July 28, 2005 that it intended to restate parts of its prior period financial statements to correct accounting for transactions it described as sale-leaseback transactions. The restatement renamed the transactions as financing transactions, with the assets and related financing obligation carried on the balance sheet.
As a result, approximately $177 million in additional debt was expected to be recorded as of June 30, 2005, with a similar increase in assets.

I have been reading about the dispute between Japan and South Korea regarding the islets of Takeshima/Dokdo and believe that there is a simple solution that would benefit both countries.
An international university should be built on these islets, a fully accredited institute where students can transfer their credits to any college or university worldwide. Both nations' educators would be in charge of the academics at this university, and with this location, oceanography and related subjects could be the key studies.
The cost of building the university should be shared equally by South Korea and Japan so as to eliminate either country's claiming control over it.
Politics should not be an obstacle to the creation of this new university; the focus must solely be on education. I doubt if either country's citizens would object to a new university being built for their children and future generations of both nations.

STOURBRIDGE band Ned's Atomic Dustbin are bringing a snapshot of their early days up to date with a new DVD.
The indie heroes who cracked the charts with a top 20 single and a top five album are re-releasing a film about their rise to fame.
The movie, called Nothing is Cool, came out on VHS in 1991 and takes a behind-the scenes look at life on the road with the Neds including plenty of footage of the band in action.
Nothing is Cool knocked the Eurythmics from the top of the video charts and provides a snapshot of an era when musicians crafted success for themselves, rather than seeking celebrity on TV talent shows.
Much of the live music in the video was filmed at Wolverhampton Civic Hall and the band will be back at the same venue on Saturday December 1 for a gig to mark the film's re-release.
During the show, Ned fans will see the band play all the tracks from the movie's soundtrack and Nothing is Cool will be shown in its entirety after the gig.

Does it bother you if someone you've never met before addresses you in a familiar way? For example, if they use your first name, rather than Mr/Mrs/Ms or other title plus your surname.
Some of my friends object strongly to being addressed by their first name by their bank manager, for example, or to receiving emails or letters from strangers which start Hi [first name], rather than Dear Mr/Mrs/Ms [surname].
It doesn't bother me in the slightest if strangers call me Simon rather than Mr Ager. In fact I prefer informality to formality any day. However I do tend to correct mispronunciations of my surname.
When I reply to emails I tend to take my lead from how to sender has addressed me. If they start with 'Dear Mr Ager', then I'll use the same formular to reply. Some even award me other titles, such as professor or Dr, which I have no claim to. If they start with 'Hi Simon', then I'll reply in a similar way. Some start with 'To whom it may concern' or 'To the webmaster', which is just lazy – it's not as if my name is hidden away.
When talking to people face to face I tend not to use their names at all, unless there are several people and I want to get a particular person's attention. Sometimes this is because I don't know or can't quite remember their names, but usually it's just a habit.
Inspired by a post on Linguism.

Writers Group BMS award
Writers Group BMS award
Dolly Varden-Chambers has received the first prize in a short story competition the Rotorua Writers Group has run sponsored by Business Media Services Ltd.
Dolly was awarded the prize for her story 'Autumn'. Second place went to Heather Foley, with Jack Stafford, third, who received certificates from the writers group.
This is the first year BMS has sponsored the prize for $100 and Mr Smith said he did so in recognition of the work the group was doing and to help give writers an experience of competing in a sponsored competition.
Rotorua Writers Group president Marj Griffiths said the Christmas party wound up an interesting and active year in which many new members have been welcome.
"We appreciate the support we've received from our sponsors, particularly BMS for its sponsorship of the in-house short story writing competition," Marj said.
Mr Smith said the choice of a winner was quite a hard, because there was a group of six or seven stories that tested his resolve."
"What swayed me to decide on the winner was the stipulation I had placed on the overall competition. Apart from structure, dialogue and the usual aspects of a short story competition, I placed an emphasis on imagination."
"I wanted to see a story in which the imagination took flight; a bit like the Red Bull advert."
Dolly's story got its nose ahead of the placegetters by having that extra twist of imagination. While it could easily have been a good story in its own right, the addition of this extra factor added the kind of element I was looking for in the winner.
"She took what amounted to a leap of faith in writing the story from the point of view of two people. I started off by reading the story from one view point and was sympathetic to that character; then all of sudden, the writer springs the point of view of the other character. Two worlds were created in a short space of time."

By clicking Submit, you accept the Adobe Terms of Use.
This article is intended for users of Ubuntu Linux 9.04. If you're using a different version or a different distribution, you may need to modify these steps to complete the set up process.
BlazeDS is an open source server from Adobe, which delivers Java remoting and web messaging technology so developers can easily implement advanced Message Exchange Patterns (MEPs) and more efficient protocols to access back-end distributed data. Consumers of BlazeDS services and endpoints can be built upon Adobe Flash Platform technologies.
The evolution towards more engaging RIAs has created the need for better data connectivity options. Remoting simplifies the reuse of existing server logic by automatically marshalling calls between the client and the Java methods on the server. In addition, the use of the AMF binary data transfer format increases performance, allowing applications to load data up to 10 times faster than with text-based formats such as XML or SOAP.
One of the goals of BlazeDS, of course, is to make things easier for developers. This article provides instructions to get BlazeDS up and running on 32-bit Ubuntu Linux 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope).
Before running BlazeDS, you'll need to make sure the Java Development Kit (JDK) is installed on your system.
If the JDK is installed you'll see usage instructions, for example:
Usage: javac <options> <source files>
Where possible options include:
If the JDK is not installed, you'll see a list of packages that include javac (see Figure 1), for example:
The program 'javac' can be found in the following packages:
If you have a version 1.5 of higher JDK installed, you can proceed to Setting up BlazeDS. (To check the version, type java –version in the terminal and press Enter.)
If not, continue with the following steps in the next section.
To install the JDK, you can use the apt-get command, which is one of my favorite features of Ubuntu. The apt-get command runs a powerful command-line tool used to work with the Linux Advanced Packaging Tool (APT). You can use it to install new software packages, upgrade existing software packages, and more. It can even update the operating system. For server administrators, apt-get has numerous advantages over other package management tools available in Ubuntu. It's easy to use with simple terminal connections (such as SSH) and it can be used in system administration scripts, which can, in turn, be automatically run by the cron scheduling utility.
I chose this package over the others available because I consider it the reference implementation for a JDK.
After apt-get downloads and installs the required packages (see Figure 2), you'll be presented with the Sun license agreement.
After installing the JDK, you need to configure the $JAVA_HOME environmental variable by setting it to the location of the JDK install directory. On my system the JDK was installed in /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/ by default.
You can find the install directory for your system by following the symbolic links for the java program:
My system returned the following:
administrator@ubuntu-904:~/Desktop$ whereis java
java: /usr/bin/java /usr/share/java /usr/share/man/man1/java.1.gz
You'll likely see that /usr/bin/java is a symbolic link to another file, in my case it was a link to /etc/alternatives/java.
Ultimately, you'll find the real target, which by default is /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java. This means that you need to set $JAVA_HOME to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/.
To set the environment variable, you need to edit your shell initialization file. The following instructions assume you are using a bash shell; instructions for other shells can be found on Sun's website.
<your name> and the actual path to the JDK as necessary):
# JAVA_HOME added by <your name>
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
You should see the following response:
Follow these steps to set up BlazeDS:
Depending on how you extracted the ZIP file, you may need to give execute permission to the BlazeDS directory.
That's it! You are done.
Now that you have BlazeDS up and running on Ubuntu Linux, you can get up to speed by taking the 30 minute test drive and exploring the other samples.
You can also read Getting started with BlazeDS for instructions on building a messaging application and a remoting application with BlazeDS.

Venezuela opposition rallies despite dismal expectations
CARACAS — A general expectation that Hugo Chavez's hand-picked successor will win next weekend's presidential election didn't dim the spirits of more than 100,000 backers of challenger Henrique Capriles, who jammed the capital's center on Sunday.
Most of the people who converged by foot in the city center on a hot, sunny afternoon tried to shrug off forecasts of victory for Nicolas Maduro, who was sworn in as acting president when Hugo Chavez died March 5 following a long battle with cancer.
Capriles said the big turnout in the capital was evidence that he'd win at the ballot box on Sunday.
"Today the streets of Caracas were filled with happiness, today the streets of Caracas were filled with hope, today the streets of Caracas confirm what's going to happen," Capriles said.
Chavez had defeated Capriles in October, but by the slimmest margin of his 14-year tenure as president.
Maduro, who rose from bus driver and union organizer to foreign minister under Chavez, is expected to benefit from an emotional outpouring of solidarity among Chavistas who have benefited from the generous social welfare state he created under the socialist banner.
But many critics contend that Maduro has been saddled with a fiscal hangover because of heavy Chavez spending before October's vote.
Jesus Barroso, a 52-year-old retiree, said he believes Maduro will win handily next Sunday. But he predicted Maduro would not be able complete the six-year term because economic and social woes would prompt Venezuelans to remove him through a recall.
"I don't think he'll last very long in the presidency," Barroso said.
Supporters of Capriles chanted anti-government slogans and waved red, yellow and blue Venezuelan flags as they converged on a main avenue in downtown Caracas.

Lawrence S. Pertillar
Shown What I Now Know - Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar
Where did you think that I would go,
After I was shown what I now know.
Back to forgetting those experiences had?
Back to feeling trapped within doubts,
To question the reality of presented facts?
There is something about experiencing life,
I simply could not turn my back on that!
I'm here to stay right where I am at!
Where did you think that I would go,
After I was shown what I now know?
Back to depending on your promises made?
Back to being disappointed...
And forgiving to tolerate present and past charades?
Where did you think that I would go,
After I was shown what I now know?
Oh no. I 'almost' took that road long ago...
When I believed honesty you would never deceive.
But what I have discovered about you and truth,
Is the finding of it you never met to be introduced.
And now that I know it as it is to be,
I realize who has more problems to solve...
And I'm here to stay right where I am,
To witness the death of your delusion AND full recovery.
That's how certain I am,
You too will experience to comprehend and understand...
Once peace of mind is found,
It doesn't matter if it shows or where one goes...
A clarity obtained to 'see' has an ability,
Not to deceive honesty for what it is!
That's how certain I am you too will experience that,
To comprehend and understand...

So, yesterday I had a call from kinder saying a child (who is vaccinated) has been diagnosed with Whooping Cough. Mr 4 has already started antibiotics and will be back at kinder on Monday.
However, none of the other kids (all vaccinated), besides the infected child, in his group of 25 children is taking the antibiotics, because they have been vaccinated.
In the general population Whooping Cough vaccine (DTaP) has between 80-90% efficacy. So in a group of 24 vaccinated children, statically 4-5 of those children do not have enough immunity to prevent catching, and spreading the disease.
As well as this, up to 25% of all Whooping Cough cases are thought to by asymptomatic (no symptoms), and most of those cases are found in adults and vaccinated children.
So, theoretically, one of the children who is vaccinated in the group may have contracted Whooping Cough from the infected child, and will not develop symptoms but will spread the disease.
I have long believed there should be annual testing of immunity levels in the vaccinated population. This is commonly done in animals - their antibody titers are tested annually.
So, why is this not done for our children, would that not increase herd immunity? (not that I believe in herd immunity, but for all those people who do...)
If vaccinations are to be treated seriously, surely it pays to make sure children are immune. Many people find out in early pregnancy that they have not developed immunity to Rubella despite repeated immunisation, surely similar testing should be done for all vaccines!
WDYT - please try to stay on topic and resist the urge to lecture me on not vaccinating.
In case you are unclear of the question, I am asking, 'Should post-vaccination immunity levels be tested to prove immunity?'

Do you want to develop an Ebook on a well-known subject matter, these kinds of as operating from property or conserving money?

Learning complications these types of as dyslexia or attention deficit condition cause individuals to struggle in each spelling and grammar.

1) Keep content articles quick.

So they change to the short article author who will concentrate the advantages of a item into three hundred to 500 text. And, if the audience identified your report ranked really on the search engines, they can be rather certain that it is on topic and will give them some data about their issues or troubles.
Keep your views in tightly-knit paragraphs. Bullets or numbers typically do the job good when you have extra than 1 issue to make. Just be guaranteed to area a blank line amongst paragraphs – be attentive because in some cases your phrase processor won't quickly place in a blank line so make absolutely sure you do it on your own.

Her masterpiece made a massive strike and is topping off the cabinets in all the bookstores all over the world.

Firefighters last night tackled a blaze in a derelict Keighley building.
The fire affected the first floor and loft of a former home, Parkwood House, in Parkwood Street.
Crews from Keighley and Bingley were called out the incident at 11.30pm and spent about two hours at the scene.
"We placed ladders up to the windows and put water jets through to deal with the fire," said a brigade spokesman.
He added: "We don't know the cause of the fire but the building is empty and we have been called up there several times before."

We returned to 2 FOOLS this year (2014) with continued high expectations for them and they met and exceeded the challenge once again. Believe it or not we are running out of compliments that we can bestow upon this place and its proprietors. Everything about it is simply superlative - food, service, atmosphere, entertainment, and the diners they attract (whom you interact with as well) are all part of the "superlative experience". These proprietors simply have their act consistently together and it shows in every aspect of the business. 2 FOOLS is not number 1 without reason and it appears that they will remain so for some time to come and, in our opinion, that status is a noticeable distance from number 2. The only thing that we can even remotely think of that might improve the 2 FOOLS experience is to be adopted by the proprietors, Paul and Fred, and have the opportunity to dine with them every evening. We already have our reservations in for 2015 and, though one is made to feel like family anyways, at that time we hope to be able to present our case for our formal adoption. Remember to make your reservation early (and re-confirm it as the date gets closer) for one of the most memorable dining experiences that you can partake of in Aruba and Enjoy. The experience is a real treat and will, most likely, be one of the highlights of your trip to Aruba.
"2 Fools = Amazing Dinner!"

This is the third time I've had dinner with the 2 Fools and, once again, incredible food and an incredible evening. Alot of fun to mingle on the patio with the other guests before dinner with a complimentary glass of champagne. By the time you're seated for dinner, it feels like a fun dinner party where everyone knows you. Each course was amazing and the wine pairings were spot on. This is definitely a fun dining experience for the entire evening!

We made our third trip to see the Fools this week and it was as good as the first two. Fred is the artist and Paul is the entertainer. We had Veal Carpaccio followed by Shrimp Ravioli. After a small break we were served Grouper Thermidor and then Beef Tenderloin Stroganoff. There is an explanation of what ingredients these dishes are made with, but I didn't take notes because I was too anxious to start eating. Every bite is so good. I am not an adventurous eater by any measure, but when I go to 2 Fools and a Bull I just go for the ride and it is undoubtedly the best eating I have ever experienced. The wine pairings are extra and you can go with or without them, but I have always found them to accent the meal perfectly. For the 3rd time I have also found the company to be part of what makes the evening great. You meet 10-12 new friends that are in great spirits that add to the experience. Finish with an exquisite dessert, then the Staff Meeting on the patio with Paul and Fred and 5 hours flew by. My only regret is if I keep writing these reviews, I won't be able to get in on future trips.

We returned to 2 Fools this year and were warmly greeted by the proprietors, Paul and Fred (AKA Fool 1 and Fool 2). One in our party has some dietary issues and last year 2 Fools handled it so well that we wanted to see if they could match their performance realizing that being consistent at the high end is often quite difficult. To our surprise and satisfaction, they exceeded their performance of the prior year and our hats are off to them for doing so.
From the initial champagne greeting and being introduced and getting to know your fellow diners to the end of the evening everything flows smoothly and well. Paul and Fred are the consummate hosts and they complement one another very well.
After being seated everyone is directed to a menu board that sets out what can be expected during the evening. It is pleasing to see optional beverages listed as well as their price - there is no surprise here. Choose beverage X and you are going to be charged $Y - that is called full disclosure and transparency and that is a fair and upright way of doing business that is appreciated here.
And then the fun begins as you are served full size servings of four or five courses (depending on the night) of some of the best food made in the most impeccable fashion that you can imagine. MASTER CHEF, FRED is talented beyond compare and rather than simply modify the dishes of others to accommodate dietary issues, he prepares unique dishes to do so - which is much appreciated and the way it should be done.
Seating around a counter actually works here because it is not a long semi-circle type of counter but more like three sides of square which brings people a bit closer and more accessible for discussion purposes. To reinforce the interaction, occasional breaks or interludes are strategically placed during the evening and they work quite well.
Every night is a unique experience here and the repertoire is bountiful and endless.
These people simply have their act together and it shows in every way and results in a first class result.
Part of our objective this year was also to compare the 2 Fools and Carte Blanche experiences and we have concluded that, though both are very good, 2 Fools is the superior one and we will be returning next year to enjoy it again.
BE A FOOL FOR THE EVENING AND EXPERIENCE ONE OF (IF NOT "THE") THE BEST DINING EXPERIENCES IN ARUBA. This place is not rated #1 without good reason. There is nothing here that we find that we can be critical about and we strongly encourage and highly recommend this place to all. Be sure to make your reservations early. GO AND ENJOY.

These two fools really know what they are doing from start to finish. This experience is not only full of upbeat fun, the food and wine are absolutely divine. Period. Do yourself a favour and make a reservation. Well in advance. You will thank me.
"Beyond FABULOSITY!!!!"
Nov 17, 2012 - posted by Dawn Williams
This was our 5th trip to Aruba. Our special treat is each night to dine at the best of the best restaurants. I don't know that it is in my vocabulary to come up with an appropriate word to describe the 2 Fools experience. First off, experience is key here! From the moment we walked up to the entrance and was warmly greeted by Paul through the last bite of the otherworldly dessert....and the special escort upon exiting from Fred (including a hug) the food, the atmosphere, the company, the wine pairings...AMAZING!!!...I would challenge the most discerning foodie to try to beat it. The evening begins with cocktails on the patio and meeting the other diners. Since the venue is small (16 guests) the tone is set for a relaxed and luxurious experience. The menu is then introduced and the experience begins....WOW! WOW! WOW! Paul keeps the conversation going with his and Freds backgrounds and interesting stories involving the menu selection. After the first two courses, guests are encouraged to get up and move a bit and explore the historic building or just chat with the new acquaintances. Every detail of your evening is thoughtfully planned and expertly executed. The portions are perfectly sized to enjoy every last bite. The flavorings are exquisite. Make your reservations online and don't hesitate to go on the wait list. We visited twice in the course of two weeks and were promptly notified when an opening became available which luckily we were smart enough to jump on! Nothing on the island compares!
"2 Fools Twice "
Nov 17, 2012 - posted by James from MA
During my last visit to Aruba I had the good fortune to get a place at the table from the wait list twice. The first trip was due to curiosity, the second was due to complete satisfaction. At first I was unsure about spending 4 hours at dinner with strangers. The combination of Paul's ability to host and make the group feel like new found friends, and Fred's magic with the food, make 4 hours fly by.The first thing that I decided was that I had to surrender my palate to whatever was coming and that was a complete pleasure. You sit for a 5 course meal with opprtunites to take breaks and retreat to the patio or take a tour of the house, the wine room, the kitchen. Our first vist we had an appetizer of Tuna Tartar and Wahoo Tataky with a shot of Saki, Cornish Hen Salad, Dover Sole, Beef Wellington and a Dessert Called Cupcake, but was much more than a cupcake. Paul's wine pairings are excellent and add to the evening. On our second visit a week later (luckily off the waitlist again), we had the Cornish Hen Salad and Dover Sole again (no complaints with repeats as they are so good), a Shrimp Ravioli with a tall shot glass of Lobster Bisque, Lamb and Veal from the Bull (the Bull is a centerpiece rotisserie oven) and a Chocolate Dessert that was incredible. After you have finished your meal, you take your final drink and join Fred and Paul for the evening Staff Meeting on the patio. It is the perfect way to complete the experience with the 2 Fools and your new found friends.

Universal Pictures will release "Accepted" a week longer than planned that is on August 18.
Previously prepared to open on theatres alongside the likes of "Pulse", "Step Up", and "Zoom", "Accepted" has to give up the plan indeed. Universal Pictures as the film's distributor has postponed its release to one week later on August 18, placing the flick to face off against camp thriller "Snakes on a Plane" in turn.
Concerning this sudden decision, Universal spokesman Paul Pflug reasoned that early survey showed that the movie would result better with its target audience with the later opening, and so it prompted the company to push back the release date as consequence.
"Accepted" sees Justin Long playing an enterprising youngster who invents a fake university when he fails to get accepted into a real school. Other cast members include Blake Lively, Skyler Stone, and Diora Baird with Steve Pink at helm.

New Delaware trail opens at the C&D Canal [video]
There's a new destination on the map for outdoor enthusiasts in honor of former Delaware Governor and U.S. Congressman Mike Castle who put a lot of hard work into enhancing outdoor recreation during four decades of service in the First State.
The former governor along with Gov. Jack Markell, U.S. Senator Chris Coons, U.S. Congressman John Carney, Secretary Collin O'Mara of the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control came together to officially open and dedicate the Michael N. Castle Trail at the C&D Canal. The first phase stretches nine miles from the southern end of the Branch Canal west to the Summit Bridge, and will extend even further in the near future.
"Opening this new trail will help support tourism, connect communities, get people outside and help improve their quality of life through healthy activity and enjoyment of nature," said DNREC Secretary Collin O'Mara.
Bicyclist Nancy Waddell has already been on the trail and plans to take advantage of it by visiting it several times a week. "It is perfect for me because I live about a mile and a half from this area so I can just come through the little town of St. George's and I'm right here," said Waddell.
Although Castle played a huge part in the development of the trail, the original vision started with a group of trail users. Castle helped initiate the project which started to take shape in 2012, nearly eight years after Castle was joined by constituents determined to use the canal area.
"It's fitting that the trail be named for someone who spent so much time and effort working, along with his state director, Jeff Dayton, to help create it," said U.S. Congressman John Carney.
The trail is now a part of Gov. Markell's First State Trails and Pathways Initiative. The idea is to create a network of new and enhanced trails as well as pathways for equestrians, bikers, hikers and those who prefer to take a stroll.
"Each time we open a new trail, we are a step closer to our vision of a statewide trails network that will allow residents and visitors to see Delaware's natural beauty up close, connect local businesses with new visitors, and link our communities," said Gov. Markell. "As a cyclist, I look forward to adding the Michael N. Castle Trail to my list of favorite places to ride."
A Pennsylvania couple were among the first on the newly opened trail and they were impressed at what Delaware has to offer after riding their bikes on the trail on Friday. "It was wonderful with nice views. We saw that it was trail right along the canal and there's no traffic and that's very appealing so we gave it try. We love the water, we love the eagles so we thought we come on down," said bicyclist Cheryl Heineman who came in on the trail from Chesapeake City, Maryland.
Last month, construction began on the newest phase and is expected to be completed in late 2014. By the time crews are finished, the trail will extend a full 16 miles (the length of the Chesapeake and Delaware canal) from Delaware City to Chesapeake City, Maryland. The canal first opened in 1829. The trail is on the northern side of the canal.
DNREC's Division of Fish and Wildlife will manage the trail.

The ChatOn IM is particularly popular in countries like India and China, and the United States, and it's getting good traction in the Europe and the Middle East.
A key factor for the growth of ChatOn is that Samsung bundles it in its feature phones, as well as in Galaxy smartphones. The Samsung Galaxy S III was the first to get it, and the current top shelf phones like the Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy S4 both have it on board.
On smartphones, ChatOn has fierce competition. Whatsapp, Skype and Viber all make for solid competitors. Which IM platform do you use, and why do you prefer it? Let us know in the comments below.

|IMHO trying to write an RPG before you understand object oriented programming is a total waste of time. You'll soon want to have characters that can interact with each other and their environment, acquire, use and track inventory items, learn skills and advance abilities, etc., etc. BUT, you won't be able to because you're still writing procedural code and keeping track of all those parameters without an OOP-based framework is confusing, tedious, error-prone and just plain BORING.
If you insist on doing this just try and make a small, simple RPG which has one character, four rooms and a few items to find plus a key to get out. You'll quickly see how hard it is just to keep track of where your character is. If you try to create some big, open-ended world I guarantee you'll soon be lost in pages of spaghetti code and lose interest in programming.
I suggest you study some of the good tutorials and then practice your skills by making simple programs that interest you personally. Think up some application that you can use now even though it's simple and then add features as your knowledge of programming grows. Come back to the games when you can do them justice...

HOUSTON - After an evening of strong storms in the Houston area, the weekend promises to be sunny, fresh and beautiful!
High pressure will build into Texas from the west during the day Saturday. As it moves in, a stiff north breeze will kick up this afternoon, but it will relax by dinner time.
High temperatures on Saturday will reach the upper 70s, thanks to plenty of sunshine.
Saturday night will be clear, calm and crisp. Evening temperatures will quickly drop into the 60s and, eventually, the 50s. A light sweater or jacket will be helpful for those heading out this evening.
We continue the sunny trend Sunday, with highs reaching the mid to upper 70s again.
The wind will shift to more of a southeast flow, which sets the stage for more Gulf moisture migrating our way during the coming work week.
Enjoy the weather and have a great weekend!

Opera House staff will learn on Monday about a major restructure, amid concerns that arts programming will be downgraded and jobs will go.
The Opera House's chief executive, Richard Evans, said the restructure was designed to improve efficiency. He declined to rule out redundancies.
''I don't know. That remains to be seen,'' Mr Evans said. ''I am hopeful that the new structure will allow us to do some things differently, but it would be premature for me to be talking about that.''
He said he would address staff on Monday morning about the changes.
''I will be talking to the staff about the top-level changes next week and some of the portfolio reshuffles,'' Mr Evans said. ''This is not a surprise - this is something that business does every few years.''
The senior restructure would take effect from next week, he said. It comes amid the axing of the position of director of performing arts, prompting the departure today of the incumbent, Rachel Healy, two years before the end of her contract.
Ms Healy was informed last Tuesday that the position she has held for the past four years was to be abolished.
''Richard offered me a different role in the new regime and, while flattered, I declined,'' she said.
She informed Mr Evans of her decision to leave last Wednesday. ''There is no personal bitterness between us whatsoever,'' Ms Healy said. ''I had been thinking for the last few months that the time was right to contemplate my next step.''
The role she was offered was narrower than her current position. Ms Healy has had oversight of the Opera House's five artform heads, including the recently appointed head of contemporary music, Fergus Linehan, a former Sydney Festival director. She has also been responsible for technical crews, venue hire and relationships with resident companies.
Behind the scenes there is concern that the abolition of Ms Healy's position means the downgrading of performing arts and that other artistic positions are poised to be axed.
The Opera House's senior management consists of six directors: of performing arts, marketing, commercial and operations, maintenance, finance and human resources.
The director of commercial and operations, Maria Sykes, resigned recently and it is understood this role is also being abolished.

The weird and wonderful secrets of Crystal Palace are to be uprooted from their home and taken out on the road.
Crystal Palace Museum has pulled together information from the wise heads who work there to create more than a dozen specific talks for groups, organisations and schools keen to learn more about the area.
From the Curious Story of the Lost Railway to Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Crystal Palace Fire Mystery, it is promised the talks are fun and informal and stuffed with intrigue alongside factual information.
Barrie McKay, who works at the library, said: "Our one-hour talks provide an additional way of telling the history as well as the various strange but true incidents about the Crystal Palace to many in the community and also to those further afield."
Is there a grisly carriage, full of long forgotten passengers, stuck in rail tunnels beneath the old Crystal Palace site? What did archaeological digs conducted almost 40 years ago discover in these tunnels? Find out about this and much more by calling in the museum team.
Groups interested in having this or any of the museum's illustrated talk call the museum on 020 8676 0700 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

AS BASILDON mayor Mo Larkin's consort Dr John Handley rubs shoulders with celebrities, politicians, and dignitaries.
The couple represent the borough at civic functions, where he tells stories of life as a legal expert, international diplomat, and war hero.
He has been photographed with singer Will Young and football legend Sir Geoff Hurst, all through his relationship with the mayor.
Yet, the Echo can expose him as a "Walter Mitty" character with no military service, recognised law qualification, or diplomatic experience.
Mr Handley, 66, of Eastern Esplanade, Southend, is in fact a former TV repair man now running a cleaning business.
Yet he has led Remembrance Sunday parades with Mrs Larkin, including last year when he saluted next to Army veteran and BillericayMP John Baron.
A Royal Navy spokeswoman said: "We have no records for this individual."
Nigel Smith, Basildon Labour group leader, said: "It is disgusting he could say he is a distinguished person and war hero.
"He and the mayor have led me to believe as recently as July he was a naval officer, worked with the United Nations, Foreign Office and Tony Blair and still exchanges Christmas presents with David Miliband."
He claims to have aided the peace process in Palestine, since being injured in "friendly fire"
during Royal Navy service in the 1990s Gulf War.
Yet there wasno trace of him as a diplomat at the UN or Foreign Office, or working for Mr Blair.
Mr Smith added: "Mr Handley seems to have certain privileges, attend certain events and is on first name terms with the chief executive. If we can't believe a word he says it calls what the mayor has said about him into question."
He drives the mayor to events and he says it saves the taxpayer as she claims no expenses for mileage.
Through driving the mayor, he has enjoyed trips to Basildon's twin town Meaux in France, with accommodation and food provided as hospitality.
Meals and shows have been bought for him by organisations welcoming the mayor to local events. "Dr Handley" has been thanked for his work as consort during full council by Mrs Larkin, council leader Tony Ball and former council leader Malcolm Buckley.
He even claims to have tried to influence Mr Ball against axing a hot meals service in elderly day centres.
A council spokesman said: "Although Mr Handley has no official council position, we recognise as the mayor's partner he has supported her and helped her carry out a very considerable amount of good work.
"Allegations being levelled at him are a private matter. They are not related to council policies and should therefore in no way reflect on its reputation."
Mr Ball added: "It is disingenuous if someone has made up their military service, but I can assure John Handley has no influence over council policy."
When told the Royal Navy had no record of him, Mr handley said: "No they won't have. That's why I don't go public. But I'm not going to go into it. Whose business is it really?"
He later said reluctantly, that after he graduated as an engineer, the Royal Navy wanted him to join to develop equipment, but being a Jehovah's Witness prevented this as the religion disowns anyone in the military.
To allow him to join without his congregation's knowledge, and even behind his family's back, he said the US and Royal navies had colluded with him.
He said he joined the US Navy and was seconded to the Royal Navy, so all records were in the US, but destroyed when he left.
He said: "Mo questioned me before when I first met her and I had to show her evidence of what went on."
He produced an e-mail on his laptop he said was sent to him three years ago to prove his service to Mrs Larkin, claiming it was from a man who served with him in the US in 1992, but had since died.
He said running a cleaning firm did not prevent his "diplomatic" work, but refused to discuss any specific roles.
A Royal Navy spokeswoman said: "The Royal Navy would not collude with anyone. It would not be in the interests of the service. Under no circumstances would there be any agreement to destroy records."
Mrs Larkin said she understood Mr Handley was already going through a divorce when she met him in 2006.
She added: "I did not even know he was a Jehovah'sWitness, but he has explained to me why there is no record of him in the Navy and I have accepted that. I know someone who was in the SAS and there was no record of them. He has now showed me his Ashley University paperwork and I am happy this is genuine."
Asked about his remarks about working with the UN, Foreign Office and President Obama, she said: "I don't know everything he gets up to – I don't live with him – but I told him to stop the tweets."

Bert Newton Joins Australia's ANNIE in Perth from Tonight, July 24
According to The West Australian, Bert Newton joins the cast of Annie in Perth today, July 24, replacing Alan Jones as President Roosevelt. Jones leaves the production to broadcast the 2012 Olympics from London.
