America's Cup venue in Ras al-Khaimah ruled invalid by Court
by Richard Gladwell on 28 Oct 2009
There is still no Mutual Consent in the 33rd America's Cup Carlo Borlenghi/ Alinghi ©
In a Hearing in the New York Supreme Court today, Justice Shirley Kornreich ruled that any venue arbitrarily selected by the Defender of the America's Cup for the 33rd match had to be Deed compliant.
The decision from the Bench surprised many, and means that the only valid venue for the 33rd Match is Valencia, Spain; or a Southern Hemisphere venue; or a venue determined by mutual consent between the Challenger, Golden Gate Yacht Club and the Swiss Defender, Societe Nautique de Geneve.
While the move would appear to remove the chosen venue of Ras al-Kaimah as a location, that would only apply if the Match were still to be sailed on 8 February 2010, and there was no mutual consent between the Challenger and Defender.
While agreement between the latter seems unlikely at this stage, the ongoing legal proceedings may well create further delay, slipping the match beyond May 2010, meaning that SNG could well select the Northern Hemisphere venue.
Alternatively SNG could arbitrarily select a Southern Hemisphere venue for a Match in February 2010, without any consent required from the Challenger.
On the issue of the Rules, many of the issues raised by Golden Gate were not immediately ruled upon by the Court . However staying consistent with the 'Four Corners of the Deed' doctrine, Justice Shirley Kornreich ruled that the measurements, as stated in the Deed of Gift should not be exceeded, and by implication could be less than stated on the Notice of Challenge filed by Golden Gate Yacht Club in July 2007.
She undertook to try and rule on the outstanding matters of rudders being included in the Load Water Line measurement, and whether ballast tanks had to be full or empty at measurement time, later in the week.
Justice Kornreich also asked that the International Jury be empaneled as soon as possible, and that the Intrenational Jury have all the normal powers of a Jury, meaning that it was to be independent as it is for any other international regatta, without oversight or direction by regatta organisers
A statement issued by www.Alinghi.com for Societe Nautique de Geneve reads:
New York Supreme Court orders 33rd America's Cup to be Deed compliant
The New York Supreme Court today ruled that the 33rd America's Cup, scheduled in February 2010, must take place in a venue in the Southern Hemisphere as per the strict reading of the competition's governing document, the Deed of Gift, or in Valencia, Spain, as the only exception to that rule.
'This is a disappointing result as we were certain that Justice Cahn's May 2008 decision allowed the Defender to chose Valencia or 'any other location',' said Lucien Masmejan, Société Nautique de Genève (SNG) legal counsel. 'Ras Al Khaimah has put enormous time and effort into this 33rd America's Cup project. We thank them and feel sorry for this unexpected result out of the New York court'.
'We are satisfied, however, as Justice Kornreich confirmed that the Deed of Gift Match will be conducted under SNG rules as she had already ruled in a previous court order,' added Lucien Masmejan.
By way of explanation, SNG noted that the 1887 Deed stipulates that racing for the America's Cup between 1 November and 1 May must take place in the Southern Hemisphere, Justice Cahn's 12 May 2008 New York Supreme Court Order 'that the location of the match be in Valencia or any other location selected by the SNG' led the America's Cup defending yacht club, Société Nautique de Genève, to select Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates.
In a later statement, Golden Gate Yacht Club commented:
New York, NY, October 27, 2009 – 'We're pleased with the court's decision today that Alinghi's choice of the venue for the 33rd America's Cup was not allowed under the Deed of Gift.
'We look forward to Justice Kornreich's decision later this week regarding two additional issues.
'First, we hope she will agree with our position that Alinghi cannot add additional ballast, equipment or sailors to the boat after it has been measured for compliance with the Deed of Gift's restriction on length along the load water line. Enabling any team to add additional weight after measurement – thus lengthening its load water line and increasing its speed – violates the Deed of Gift, decades of sailing practice, and the spirit of the rules that govern the America's Cup.
'Second, Justice Kornreich understands the need for a fair and impartial jury.
'Our position is that the sailing jury must have the normal powers to adjudicate. We remain motivated to negotiate all remaining issues with Alinghi to ensure a fair, competitive and successful America's Cup in February 2010. We took a
big step towards this goal today.'

Corn futures closed 32 to 34 cents higher on Monday. Corn prices closed higher on continued weather worries. New crop corn traded limit up this morning fueled by fears that the current drought in the Midwest will force to USDA to cut yield estimates. USDA is set to release crop condition ratings this afternoon and analysts are expecting to see a 5 percentage point decline in the good/excellent ratio for corn.
Soybean futures closed 39 to 45 cents higher on Monday. Midwest drought concerns drove soybean prices to record high amounts today. The excessive heat over the last few weeks is believed to have further damaged new crop beans, boosting prices. The September soybean contract hit $16.79 1/2, the all time highest spot soybean price on continuous charts. Soymeal futures also hit a record high at $490/ton. USDA is set to release its crop progress report today, and analysts are expecting to see a 5 percentage point decline in the soybean good/excellent condition rating.
Wheat futures closed 19 to 28 cents higher on Monday. Wheat futures were pulled higher by strength in the corn and soybean markets, which posted moderate gains today on dry weather conditions. Prices saw additional support as hot, dry conditions across the U.S. Plains continue to stress the spring wheat crop, which resulted in lower crop condition ratings last week. Major floods in the Black Sea Region, particularly Russia, boosted prices as well.
Cattle futures closed lower on Monday. The market traded lower most of the session despite last week's higher cash prices and firm export demand. The down turn in prices can be attributed to lower boxed beef prices and waning beef demand as the summer progresses. However, deferred contracts should see additional support from rising grain prices.
Lean hog futures closed higher on Monday. Hog futures closed sharply higher on Monday with nearby contracts supported by cash premiums to futures prices. The deferred contracts displayed the strongest showing with October through 2013 contracts posting gains up to $2 per cwt. due to raising grain prices. Trade is the cash market was sluggish and generally lower, but did not affect the today's price rallies.

Nuclear energy is a vital component of a clean energy strategy. Currently nuclear generation avoids the emission of over two billion tonnes of carbon dioxide each year.
Nuclear footprints tells how nuclear energy can help protect people and our planet.
COP 22, held in Marrakech in November 2016, was the first COP to be held after the entry into force of the Paris Agreement.
Agneta Rising, Director General of the World Nuclear Association has called on parties to make it clear that nuclear energy will be part of their response to succeed in action on climate change.
Nuclear energy is an important pillar of a future energy system aimed at meeting the world's growing energy needs and avoiding the worst effects of climate change, according to a new report published today by the International Energy Agency.
Harmony envisages a diverse mix of low carbon generating technologies deployed in such a manner that the benefits of each are maximised while the negative impacts are minimised.
The Paris Agreement will require ambitious action across all sectors. A priority should be the decarbonisation of the electricity supply sector, using nuclear energy in harmony with other forms of low carbon generation.
Find out more about what happened at the COP 21 climate change conference in Paris in December 2015
Nuclear for Climate is an initiative that brings together more than 160 nuclear societies & associations from all over the world, all committed to fight climate change.
The greenhouse effect occurs naturally, providing a habitable climate. Atmospheric concentrations of some of the gases that produce the greenhouse effect are increasing due to human activity and most of the world's climate scientists believe this causes global warming and resulting climate change.
Climate change is a worldwide problem and policy responses have accordingly had an international basis, the principal focus has been on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Nuclear power can have a significant role in limiting greenhouse gas emissions while enabling access to abundant electricity.
There are many different electrical generation methods, each having advantages and disadvantages with respect to operational cost, environmental impact, and other factors. Generating electricity from fossil fuels results in greenhouse gas emissions an order of magnitude higher than when using nuclear or renewable generation.
Uranium can supply energy for the world's electricity with less greenhouse effect than virtually any other energy source.
Energy resources are available to supply mankind's expanding needs without environmental detriment. Wastes remain a major concern whether they are released to the environment or not. Until about 30 years ago, energy sustainability was thought of simply in terms of availability relative to the rate of use. Today, in the context of the ethical framework of sustainable development, including particularly concerns about global warming, other aspects are also very important.
Burning coal without adding to global carbon dioxide levels is a major technological challenge. The greatest challenge is bringing the cost of capture and storage technology down sufficiently for 'clean coal' to compete with nuclear power.
Like nuclear power, renewable energy provides electricity without giving rise to significant carbon dioxide emissions. However, utilising electricity from solar and wind in a grid requires effective back-up generating capacity due to their intermittent nature and consequent low capacity factor.
Energy storage on a large scale has become a major focus of attention and research as intermittent renewable energy has become more prevalent.
Germany's Energiewende (energy transition) is a national program to change to a renewable-dominated energy system and phase out nuclear power. The government has estimated that the total cost of this could reach €1 trillion.

Hey Mike, I haven't seen Vu in a while actually, but I try to train with Roy Harris and Tom Cruse every week, usually not acheiving that goal, but I see them a lot.
I agree that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for the ground, Boxing for the fists and footwork, and Muay Thai for the clinch, elbows and kicks is a good combo. All are sports which is good and bad. Sports are good because they require a lot of full contact usage and training, and what you learn, works! Sports lack a little, IMHO, though because they fail to train you in "non-sporting" (i.e. deadly/maiming) techniques. At least the parts you do learn really work though...
JKD is "Jeet Kune Do". There are a few different lineages of JKD, but I prefer the one that decends from Dan Inosanto to Paul Vunak which is called "Jeet Kune Do Concepts" and often called "Progressive Fighting Systems" because that is the company the Paul Vunak started. You can pick up tapes by Tom Cruse, Paul Vunak, Sharam Moosavi and Roy Harris from Panther productions to get a good feel for Jeet Kune Do Concepts.

Can I start using moisturizer/toner/cleanser on my nose again ? I got my cast off today
Can I Follow my Regular Skin Regimen After Rhinoplasty ?
Doctor Answers 6
Skin care after rhinoplasty
You should talk with your surgeon about his or her preferred routine. I typically allow gentle cleanser and moistureizer after splint removal and insist on sun avoidance and sun screen. I also do not allow any abrasive or deep treatemtns to the nose for at least 4-6 weeks. The remainder of the face can be treated as you normally do.

Skin care after rhinoplasty
Good skin care is important before rhinoplasty to open the pores before the plaster dressing is applied. When the cast comes off the skin will need regular cleansing and moisturization. Check with your surgeon for guidance.
Skin care of nose soon after a rhinoplasty
As mentioned by all the other respondents, before doing anything with regard to your nose, you should first ask your plastic surgeon. A rhinoplasty is a precise procedure where a millimeter or two can make a significant difference in the outcome doing and you do not want to disrupt the results by something that would otherwise be relatively innocuous.

Careful care of the skin after Rhinoplasty
As discussed above, it is always a good idea to talk to your surgeon. As a general rule, gentle care of the skin is wise after rhinoplasty to avoid disturbing the work that was performed underneath the skin. It is very common to have some increase in pores and occasionally more oily skin after surgery, but this is usually temporary. Any incisions should be cared for as directed by your doctor, but should certainly be kept moist until fully healed.
Skin care after rhinoplasty
Checking with your surgeon is always a good idea, but moisturizer/toner/cleanser should be fine as long as you stay away from any incisions on the nose. And avoid rubbing too hard as this may cause swelling.
Skin regimen post rhinoplasty
I would check with your surgeon. it depends on how things looked to the surgeon, how much work was performed.

Microsoft announces economical Wireless Mobile Mouse 1850 for Windows and Mac
When it comes to computer mice, it is hard to make them one-size-fits-all. After all, people have different sized hands, different preferences and heck, let's not forget the whole lefty and righty situation. To muddy the waters even further, many people own two mice -- one for home and one for portability.
A mouse for home is easy; it can be any size as it does not need to be portable. Instead, the consumer can just focus on comfort and price. A portable mouse is more difficult. A consumer must focus on size and connectivity, often at the expense of comfort. Many portable mice are too small and can be a chore to use. Today, Microsoft aims to deliver an inexpensive portable mouse, which is comfortable for both right-handed and left-handed users alike.
"Today we are announcing the Wireless Mobile Mouse 1850 -- a super lightweight mouse designed for people who live life on-the-go that costs less than 15 bucks. I've been using the mouse for a few days and really appreciate how light this mouse is. And it fits perfect in my hand. It is actually designed to feel good being used by both righties and lefties", says Brandon LeBlanc.
LeBlanc further explains, "the Wireless Mobile Mouse 1850 uses 2.4GHz wireless technology for a reliable wireless connection to your PC with a built-in mini USB transceiver. You can leave the transceiver plugged into your PC or hide it away inside the mouse. This mouse will come in five sharp colors: Coal Black, Flame Red, Orchid Pink, Pantone Purple, and Wool Blue".
At a price of $14.95, it seems this mouse is a wonderful value. It runs on a AA battery, which is ideal for travelers, as it can be easily found. Some may complain that it is not Bluetooth, however, at this price, it should not be expected. Not to mention, Bluetooth mice can be problematic if the user needs to enter the system BIOS. Quite frankly, a nano-receiver is a blessing in disguise.
Will you be buying this mouse? Tell me in the comments.

As Brooke (W.Va.) High School starting pitcher Mario Lombardi faced the first two hitters of the game, Canon-McMillan junior right fielder Jared Beach kept a close eye on the left-hander's tendencies, looking for anything to give him an advantage.
He found something.
Beach went 3-for-3 with two triples and four runs batted in to lead the Big Macs to a 9-5 non-section win in the second game of the Consol Energy Classic.
Beach has built on his success of last season, driving the ball the other way and being a key contributor as the No. 3 hitter in Canon-McMillan's lineup.
"It helps when you can study the pitcher and see what he's throwing out there," Beach said. "I've been trying to drive the ball the opposite way. It was great to have a nice day like that, even if it was a non-section game."
Canon-McMillan (5-1) started strong when Chandler Palyas drew a leadoff walk in the bottom of the first and senior Teagan Piechnick followed with a single to right field. After watching the two at-bats, Beach hit a deep fly ball over the right fielder's head for a triple, driving in two runs to spot the Big Macs an early 2-0 lead.
Beach then scored on a passed ball before Lombardi ended the inning. Piechnick also had a big day. The center fielder went 3-for-3 with a single, double and a two-run home run in the fifth inning to help Canon-McMillan pull away.
"When those two are hitting, it's big," Big Macs head coach Frank Zebrasky said. "We are expecting big things from them, and (Palyas) is doing well at the top of the order. We'll need that to keep happening."
Canon-McMillan scored at least one run in each of the first three innings with all four of Beach's RBI coming during that span. Despite stranding 10 runners on base against the Bruins (2-1), some timely hitting with runners in scoring position kept the Big Macs in the lead.
It was a big day for the Big Macs, who field a pitching staff that does not have an ace. Canon-McMillan is using several different pitchers and two of those complimented the Big Macs' offense against Brooke. Junior Jake Trainor and sophomore Matt Mish combined for six innings and eight strikeouts, allowing just one earned run.
"Our offense is going to be big for us this year," Piechnick said. "Our pitchers played well today, and they have been so far this season. We need to have their backs, and the only way to win baseball games is to get runs. We have to keep it rolling."
Brooke drew to within four runs in the top of the fourth with an RBI double by Fargo Camerlengo, who scored on an error.
Piechnick put an end to Brooke's comeback when he hit a two-run homer over the left-field fence to give the Big Macs a 9-4 lead they would not surrender.
"I'm just feeling more comfortable out there," Piechnick said. "I put in a lot of work in the offseason with my timing and getting my form down. Every win helps, no matter who you play. It's great to see the guys get fired up after that one."

Macedonia's presidential election was free of violence and met most democratic standards, international monitors said Monday – a clear improvement over last year when a parliamentary vote was marred by gunfights and fraud.
The governing party's Gjorgje Ivanov, 49, emerged as favorite to win the presidency in an April 5 runoff vote against 51-year-old Social Democrat Ljubomir Frckoski after a vote Sunday seen as crucial for the country's hope of joining both NATO and the European Union.
Ivanov, the candidate of the conservative VMRO-DPMNE party, finished comfortably ahead with 35.06 percent of the vote, followed by Frckoski with 20.45 percent, Macedonia's country's electoral commission said.
"It is a pleasure for me to see that this country has made a number of steps along the democratic road," said Pia Christmas-Moller of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
"Irregularities and a lack of trust remain, and these must be dealt with, but there is no doubt that you have made further progress in holding elections according to international commitments," she said.
The monitoring mission noted some procedural irregularities and some allegations of election-related pressure targeting public employees before the vote. It also said improvements could be made in the ballot counting process.
But the vote was a far cry from the June 2008 parliamentary election, when fighting between rival minority ethnic Albanian parties left one person dead and several wounded. That violence was the worst since 2001, when minority ethnic Albanians fought a six-month insurgency.
This time, some 55.85 percent of Macedonia's 1.8 million voters cast ballots to choose Macedonia's fourth president since its 1991 independence from Yugoslavia, the election commission said. Mayoral elections were also held, and security for the vote was tight.
"(Macedonians) have proved that we have capacity to conduct fair and democratic elections," said Ivanov, an international law professor. "We have proved that European values live in Macedonia and that this country deserves to become an equal member of the EU and NATO."
Seven candidates ran to replace President Branko Crvenkovski, who did not seek a second five-year term. The post is largely ceremonial.
Macedonia, one of Europe's poorest countries where unemployment runs at 35 percent, is eager to strengthen ties with the rest of Europe.
Macedonia is also embroiled in a dispute with Greece over its name. Athens – which says the name "Macedonia" implies territorial claims on its own province of the same name – has vetoed their bid for NATO membership until the issue is resolved.
Ivanov, a newcomer backed by Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, has presented himself as a unifying figure but his party has taken a hard line with Greece, saying that changing Macedonia's name would undermine its nationhood.
Frckoski advocates a compromise with Athens.

How Long Do I Have to Wait After a Fat Graft (BBL) to Get PMMA Injections?
Doctor Answers 3
How Long Should You Wait After BBL To Have PMMA Injected Into Your Buttocks?
Don't put your life on the line by having foreign materials injected into your buttocks! You already made one mistake by not "doing your homework" as you say, don't make another! You still have plenty of excess fat that can be removed to give you a beautiful and natural result. Don't put a foreign material into your buttocks. It is a set up for many more complications in the future. Your own fat is the only natural, the safest option and provides by far the BEST results since you get the benefit of the liposuction also. Choose your surgeon wisely. Don't do "Butt Injections" of any kind. It's not FDA approved for a reason!

The best way to revise your Brazilian butt lift
The Brazilian butt lift is beautiful and effective way to contour your body and create a small waist, a flat tummy, and a full round bottom. I'm sorry to hear about your experience but unfortunately not surprised as this can happen using doctors with little experience in this procedure. The Brazilian butt lift requires not only skill in liposuction, and body contouring, but appropriate handling of the fat and sculpting to achieve the best effects. In the United States, there is no chemical or injection that is approved for bulking under the skin. However, this does not stop many unethical clinics from offering such injections as an easy fix. Patients only find out later that a 10 min. injection will create many years of problems in distress. Please stay away from PMMA injections. I have many patients in my practice who have received these injections from other providers and we continue to treat the problems that occur afterwards.
In your case, you have sufficient fat throughout your torso, your back, and I suspect the front of your abdomen to remove fat again. Please remember that because you have had previous liposuction, that there is scar tissue underneath your skin in these areas. For the best results, you will need advanced forms of liposuction such as ultrasound liposuction as well as performing liposuction in areas that have not been previously treated to accumulate the amount of fat that you need to get a result. Although this is a little more complicated, it is possible with an experienced surgeon. The best way that you can now benefit from your experience is to carefully do your homework, check your Dr. carefully before you proceed with the revision of your Brazilian butt lift.

Brazilian Butt Lift
First you still have a significant amount of fat around the buttocks area in the love handles, illiac crfest and probably other areas.
You need to liposuction around the buttock to give you the enhancementof the buttock. Then the harveted fat can be transfered to the byttocks for a good result.
Stay away from PMMA, there has been multiple reports of problems with the material.
And you still have fat for BBL.

A push for gold mining to return to the scrubby hills around the Central California ghost town of Bodie has tapped into a national debate over land use. The recent surge in gold's value and a bill pending in Congress are giving the fight new significance. The measure would remove more than 40 million acres nationwide from federal "Wilderness Study Area" and "Inventoried Roadless Area" protection, potentially opening the land for mining, logging and other uses. What do you think? Should the bill pass to open up the land for use?

A Conversation (spoken word)

Poem by: ERcubed
Yesterday! Yesterday, I had a conversation with Love.
I asked Love: "How long do I have to seek you before I find you?"
Love asked me: "Where have you looked so far?"
I told Love: "I looked so far and so hard that I put my prayers in an envelope and sent them beyond the stars.
Hoping that you'd write me back, but when you failed to repsond and I ran out of stamps, I chased you to the edge of my sanity.
I became the laughing stock of my own vanity, so caught up in the thought of you more then my own humanity. Once I realized I couldn't catch you, I waited till the thought of you died so that I could disect you.
Figuring the best please to find love was inside Love, so when you died Love, I put on my gloves, looking to find live love inside Love.
Inspite of my best try Love, I couldn't find you. When most people would've abandened your rancid body after empty handed heartache, I stood by you.
Hand in hand, interlocking my dreams with your wings, pinky promises, my accoplishments, words of bond. Like Barry Bonds, I thought I hit a home run with you Love, but I was just juiced up.
Now I'm dehydrated, Love, I feel all used up, so I brought Hope." Hope showed me where to look.
Hope told me: "You got the right jones, you're just reading the wrong book, but you're on the right shelf."
I told Hope: "I looked every where there is to look for Love."
Hope asked me: "Have you looked inside yourself? Have you taken a minute to apprecitate that you're not second best? Or are you just taking away your battery?
Have you taken a minute to appreciate every minute of yourself? Or are you just running circles around your anatomy?"
When Hope asked me that, I stepped outside my glass box. I just stopped and took time to smell the roses of my clock.
I looked to see what made me tick, listened to myself tock. Took the time to appreciate the way the watch maker created me.
I realized all this time I couldn't love anybody because I hated me. I thought about how long I sought love, and we never crossed paths.
It's because you can love never the person that makes you whole, untill you love the other half!

The Meat They'll Eat
|Mushan Shoulder Steak (4)
|Turtle Meat Scrap (80)
DescriptionI told you earlier, my pigs are picky eaters. They need to eat meat to grow strong, but they don't like mutton, they don't like yak, and I'm not about to feed them any pig meat.
They do, however, eat meat off of the mushan beasts, and they're also quite partial to turtle. Both creatures can be found in abundance to the west.
My skills as a hunter are admittedly quite weak. Can you help out a young rancher and his pigs?
It hurts my ears to hear their hungry squeals.
Once you've been a pig rancher for a while, you can distinguish hungry squeals from regular squeals.
Once you've been a pig rancher for a while, you can distinguish hungry squeals from regular squeals.

Rodgers-Cromartie doubtful to return for Cardinals
Published: January 16th, 2010 | Tags: Antrel Rolle, Arizona Cardinals, Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Greg Toler, Rashad Johnson
Cardinals Pro Bowl CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie has been announced as doubtful to return to Saturday's game against the Saints due to a sprained left knee.
Rodgers-Cromartie was injured late in the first quarter when a player was blocked into him as he attempted to make a tackle on a short pass to Devery Henderson, and immediately began clutching his left knee. He had to be helped off the field by trainers, and was unable to put any weight on his left leg. After several minutes on the sideline, he was helped onto the back of a cart, and appeared to be in pain.
The Cardinals also announced during the second quarter that starting FS Antrel Rolle is questionable to return with a head injury. It's unclear when Rolle was injured.
The loss of Rodgers-Cromartie, the team's best cover corner, and Rolle leaves the Cardinals thin in the secondary, a week after surrendering 422 passing yards to the Packers. Rodgers-Cromartie has been replaced by rookie CB Greg Toler, who played in 13 games this season. Rolle's listed backup is another rookie — Rashad Johnson — who has started one game this season.

'AN AMERICAN CENTURY CHRISTMAS' Musical Revue Opens 12/10
American Century Theater audiences are getting a special gift this holiday season: An American Century Christmas, a new musical revue full of old classics, Christmas chestnuts, memories, laughs, tears and Christmas spirit, opening Wednesday, December 10 and running through January 4 at Theater II, Gunston Arts Center, 2700 S. Lang Street in Arlington, Virginia.
An American Century Christmas is a two-hour reflection on how America celebrated Christmas between 1900 and 2000, the century that gave us the Radio City Music Hall Christmas Spectacular and Macy's Parade, "White Christmas" and the Grinch. For children, it's a chance to experience many of the cherished Christmas moments their parents enjoyed. And for grown-ups, it's Christmas like it used to be, before legal squabbles over decorations, culture wars, and "Bad Santa."
Where else can you get O. Henry, Scrooge, George Bailey, Rudolf and "Santa Baby" in one show, along with mistletoe and "carols 'round the tree"? If you think you'll need a boost this year to get in the Christmas spirit, join American Century Theater for this "new" revue which echoes the success of the 2003-04 season holiday revue, If Only in My Dreams. The 2003 holiday revue was also assembled for TACT by Artistic Director Jack Marshall and Musical Director Tom Fuller. If Only in My Dreams recreated the emotional Christmases in the U.S. during the Second World War, told through song and the letters of servicemen and their families. The show was the surprise hit of the season, filling houses well after New Year's Day. The same creative team has assembled a new Christmas revue, like the first, consistent with the company mission of bringing audiences the best of 20th-Century entertainment before it is forgotten.
"Our 2008 revue has a different feel and focus," says Fuller. "It traces the celebration of Christmas in America by the popular culture, blending familiar songs and recordings with the moments from television, movies and radio that have become part of our collective memories, the sounds, sights and themes that defined Christmas for a century."
An American Century Christmas contains selections from over 70 songs, including salutes to Gene Autry, romantic Christmas standards, animated Christmas specials, classic Christmas movies, and more, all presented in the format of the TV Christmas variety show specials that used to be staples of the family holiday experience. Longtime TACT audiences will remember that old television shows have given TACT some of its most applauded productions, such as "The Carol Burnett Show" retrospective Laughter at Ten O'Clock and the celebrated company debut play, Twelve Angry Men.
"This is a family show if there ever was one, and children under 18 who attend with a paying adult are admitted free!" notes producer Ann Marie Plubell. Marshall and Fuller handle the direction and musical direction, with frequent TACT accompanist Alvin Smithson (Hellzapoppin) at the keyboard. The 10 member cast makes the sound of 20 in the intimate Theatre Two, and is filled with musical theater veterans from around the area.
The husband and wife team of Mick and Patricia Tinder host the evening: both appeared in TACT's recent Stunt Girl, and have thrilled area audiences as John and AbiGail Adams in 1776. Steve Lebens (Hellzapoppin, Call Me Mister), Kathryn Fuller (The Cradle Will Rock; Hollywood Pinafore, Hellzapoppin), Scott Kenison (Laughter at Ten O'Clock), Glenn White (Uncle Tom's Cabin, Hellzapoppin, The Crucible), Adam Juran (Stunt Girl), and Bill Gordon (Happy Birthday, Wanda June, Cops) round out the cast, along with newcomers McCall Noelle Doyle and Ann DeMichele.
Helping to create this new-old revue is a team of TACT favorites: AnnMarie Castrigno as lighting designer; Rip Claassen, costumes; Michael Null, technical director; and Trena Weiss-Null, who will adapt her set for Life With Father. Cast members Kathryn Fuller and Bill Gordon, who will double as assistant director and sound designer. Rhonda Hill will stage manage for the 35th time at the company.
Sound designer Bill Gordon declares, "Television Christmas variety specials are almost an extinct art form, but for almost half a century they were the way Americans got into the Christmas spirit. It's a wonderful format that mixes music, comedy and drama, and I've always want to do one."
Performance Information:
An American Century Christmas opens Wed., December 10, 2008 and runs through Sun., January 4, 2009 at Theater II, Gunston Arts Center, 2700 S. Lang Street, Arlington, Virginia 22206.

The real magic of cell lies with its eight "synergistic processor elements," or SPEs, shown in Figure 2. These are specially designed processors created from scratch by the IBM/Sony/Toshiba team just for Cell. They're not compatible with Power or PowerPC code in any way;
It should be noted however that the SPE instruction set and AltiVec while very similar, are not identical. There are different instructions, different data types, the SPEs have more registers and of course the SPEs have a local store.
Just because two chips have similar architectures, it doesn't mean stuff will run without completely rewriting it. At the very least, OS X would need to be recompiled to work with it. While you might be able to compile Darwin to run on the PS3, most of what makes OS X OS X isn't publicly available to do something like that.

Borrowers benefit from falling fixed rates
Sixteen lenders have dropped the interest rates on their three-year fixed-rate home loans this week as demand for housing loans continues to sag.
The lenders cut by an average of 13 basis points taking the average three-year fixed rate to 6.01 per cent, according to financial comparison site Rate City. Suncorp chopped the most, lowering the rate by 31 basis points to 5.72 per cent.
Analysts said that sinking global interest rates – triggered by continuing worries about the outlook for the world's economy – have lowered the costs Australian banks pay for fixed-rate loans.
"Fixed home loan rates are usually a good indicator of the direction interest rates will move because lenders set their fixed rates based on their projected estimate of rate movements," said RateCity spokeswoman Michelle Hutchison.
"What this means is if fixed rates are dropping, then it's likely that lenders expect variable rates to fall further."
The impact of the European debt crisis has forced central banks and governments to scale back expectations for growth, ensuring official rates remain low in the US, Europe and Japan. At the same time China has showed signs of slowing and the US recovery appears fragile.
This has forced commercial banks to lower rates to induce more borrowing.
ANZ Bank has cut its three-year fixed interest rate home loan by 20 basis points to 5.94 per cent, RateCity said. Westpac-owned Bank of Melbourne chopped its by 20 basis points to 5.74 per cent. Commonwealth Bank has lowered its three-year fixed rate by 20 basis points to 5.94 per cent.
RBS Equities banking analyst John Buonaccorsi said fixed-rates loans typically followed the so-called "swap rate" that the banks pay for short-term wholesale funding.
"We've seen the collapse of rates on the 10-year Commonwealth bond rates and the swap rates for the commercial borrowers have also fallen."
Mr Buonaccorsi said falling fixed-interest rates were likely a reaction to falls in the base rate banks paid to borrow money.
Ms Hutchinson said the drop in fixed-rate loans shows "that lenders are competing harder to attract new home loan customers and by lowering their fixed rates (and) they are hoping to lock in customers to avoid losing them to refinancing with another lender – at least for the fixed period".
Earlier this month, data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics showed May home loans unexpectedly dropped by 1.2 per cent despite the official interest rate cuts by the Reserve Bank intended to spur borrowing.
A Credit Suisse index shows the market tipping a 42 per cent chance of a rate cut from the Reserve Bank in August. The official cash rate stands at 3.5 per cent where the RBA left it in June. In the year ahead, investors foresee the cash rate hitting 2.5 per cent. Economists also tip further rate cuts to come.

Prime Minister John Key was due to touch down in Antarctica this evening, but he was lucky to even get away after fainting in a busy Christchurch restaurant.
Bad weather yesterday delayed the trip's departure until this morning, so the Prime Minister went out last night for a dinner at the popular Tutto Bene restaurant in Christchurch.
Chef Felice Mannucci says Mr Key and his party had been in the restaurant for some time before he fainted.
"After about two hours he got up from his chair, he comes around here and he fainted and he sat in this chair and people tried to help him," he says.
The restaurant was full at the time and as Mr Key collapsed, diners gasped in shock.
"Everyone was very worried about it."
According to Mr Mannucci the Prime Minister spent about five minutes sitting down recovering at the table before leaving with the help of others.
From the restaurant Mr Key was brought to the emergency department at Christchurch Hospital. Over about two hours he was seen by three specialists before being ticked off and sent home to bed.
This morning Tutto Benne received a text message from the Prime Minister's minder assuring the owners it wasn't their food, and was probably just jet lag.
"I was very relieved because I cooked his dinner, I was so worried I couldn't sleep all night," Mr Mannucci says.
Despite the scare, the Prime Minister was given the all-clear to fly to Antarctica.
A United States Hercules took off from Christchurch around 9am and was due to land at McMurdo station around 6pm.

While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 4 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Buy."
Arlington Asset InvestmentDividend Yield: 13.50% Arlington Asset Investment (NYSE: AI) shares currently have a dividend yield of 13.50%. Arlington Asset Investment Corp., an investment firm, acquires mortgage-related and other assets. The company has a P/E ratio of 1.47. The average volume for Arlington Asset Investment has been 150,800 shares per day over the past 30 days. Arlington Asset Investment has a market cap of $415.8 million and is part of the real estate industry. Shares are up 26.2% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday. TheStreet Ratings rates Arlington Asset Investment as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, good cash flow from operations, notable return on equity, increase in stock price during the past year and expanding profit margins. Although no company is perfect, currently we do not see any significant weaknesses which are likely to detract from the generally positive outlook. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 20.7%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 77.62% to $14.85 million when compared to the same quarter last year.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation.
- Compared to where it was trading one year ago, AI is up 23.43% to its most recent closing price of 25.91. Looking ahead, although the push and pull of a bull or bear market could certainly alter the outcome, our view is that this stock's positive fundamentals give it good potential for further appreciation.
- The gross profit margin for ARLINGTON ASSET INVESTMENT is rather high; currently it is at 66.12%. It has increased significantly from the same period last year.

In Anchorage, Alaska, on Saturday, the "Last Great Race on Earth" begins.
Sixty-seven sled dog teams will start the 998-mile Iditarod race across the barren, frigid and unforgiving land. In this year's competition, there are a handful of first-time racers — but those aren't the only rookies.
One is veterinarian Greg Reppas, whose job is to ensure the dogs are healthy throughout the race.
Days before the race, Reppas squats in a snowdrift in Wasilla and checks out Leo, one of the 16 dogs on this team that will start the Iditarod. He's a mix of husky and several other breeds and looks like a mutt. Born to run, he is raring to go. He's small like most sled dogs, just about 50 pounds.
Reppas uses a stethoscope to listen to Leo's heart. He then runs his hands across the dog's back, feeling his joints and muscles.
A few days before these exams, Leo and the 1,000 other dogs running in the Iditarod had blood work done and EKGs to check for cardiac issues. Any animal with problems is pulled and replaced before the start of the race.
These tests are just the beginning. Reppas and 50 other volunteer vets will fan out across the Iditarod's 24 checkpoints. At each one, the vets will scan the animals, sometimes taking just 30 seconds.
"When I see the dog come across the line, the first question I ask is, 'What are the problems?' So that I can emphasize my efforts on those problem dogs," Reppas says.
On the trail, it's a different kind of medicine — no fancy diagnostics or elaborate tests, just a vet's expertise.
The biggest problems they see are exhaustion, dehydration and ulcers. If a dog is deemed unfit to continue, it's flown back to Anchorage for additional care. The team will keep racing but will be down a dog.
This is Reppas' first time out on the trail. He says he's ready for the challenge, partly because of his day job: He's a major in the Army. Reppas says the Iditarod is more than just a race.
"Some say these dogs are a good model for humans as far as human sports medicine," he says. "We're learning things on an annual basis on these dogs … [and] this is the ideal laboratory to learn in."
Musher Angie Taggart of Ketchikan, Alaska, is racing in her second Iditarod.
"I always make a joke that, you know, they don't really care about the mushers because they just have the vets out there," she says. "They don't have any regular doctors. See who's important in this race? It's not the musher. It's the dog!"
For veterinarians like Reppas, the dogs are their main mission for the next two weeks. But he is also looking forward to seeing wild Alaska.
"You get that sense of perspective and how some of the locals have lived here for thousands of years," Reppas says. "You get a brief but clear look into how some folks live in this type of environment."
Bush pilots will shuttle him to remote checkpoints where he'll sleep in a tent in sometimes minus-20 degree temperatures. Like the dogs, he won't get much rest either.

TAMPA — The floors at the Brandon campus of Hillsborough Community College were covered in jagged lines of blue tape.
Those lines functioned as practice tracks for the Lego Robotics Camp.
This week, 20 middle school students from around Tampa learned how to program robots here. On Friday, their robots faced a final obstacle course.
David Gula is the outreach director for the Florida Advanced Technological Education Center, which ran the camp.
"We build the basic robot, but the students configure it with different sensors," said Gula.
Using laptop computers, 10 teams of two programmed their robot's sound, light and proximity sensors. The camp aims to direct kids toward manufacturing and technological careers.
Last year there was one session. This year, three. Next year, Gula expects four or five.
Family members attended the final presentation. Parents sat in chairs on one side of the room, while siblings sat cross-legged on the floor.
Ne'talia Gainer, 11, took on the course alone. Her partner left the program two days ago. Her father, Tallie Gainer, came to support her
"Even when she lost her partner, she was up for the challenge," he said.
Her robot's first obstacle — a labyrinth of upsidedown water bottles — tested proximity. With only a few gasps, she made it.
Tallie Gainer and his wife have four kids. She's the oldest.
"I grew up playing Legos," the father said. "It's great to see my daughter take it to the next level."
Ne'talia's second task: a crooked line that tests light sensors. Her robot refused to follow the path.
"My wheel has a little turn to it," she said.
Up next was the sound sensor obstacle. The robot must turn on command at the two corners in order to pass.
Ne'talia waited until the robot got close to the first corner, then she clapped. Her robot turned 90 degrees, then went awry, colliding with the water bottles.
Her final challenge. Come as close to a line of water bottles as possible, without touching them.
Ne'talia's robot inched toward the bottles and, right before impact, stopped. Just as she programmed it to do.
"They planted a seed here," her father said. "A very good seed."

Chase Headley gets his first day off of the season Sunday as the Padres close a three-game series in Philadelphia.
The rubber game matches the Padres Jeff Suppan against San Diego product Cole Hamels, who will be coming off a five-day suspension for intentionally hitting Washington rookie Bryce Harper.
Suppan is 2-0 with a 0.90 ERA in two starts for the Padres going into Sunday's game at Citizens Bank Park (10:35 a.m.; TV: Fox Sports San Diego; Radio: 1090-AM).
The Padres evened the series Saturday night by beating Roy Halladay for the second time this season. The Padres, who are 9-10 over their last 19 games, will be attempting to win their second straight series.
Headley has started each of the season's first 34 games at third base. But James Darnell's promotion from Triple-A Tucson gives Padres manager Bud Black a chance to rest Headley, who is in a 10-for-53 slump that has dropped his average from .288 to .244.
Cameron Maybin returns to the lead-off position Sunday with Chris Denorfia hitting second and Yonder Alonso third. Alonso has a nine-game hitting streak on the line and has hit safely in 14 of his last 15 games.
Saturday's win was also the 400th career managerial win by Bud Black. All 400 have been with the Padres. He is second on the Padres' all-time managerial win list to Bruce Bochy (951).

The new 2012 Chevrolet Camaro muscle car
Chevrolet Camaro extends its momentum with enhancements for the 2012 model year.
Find more new 2012 Chevrolet Camaro pictures in our 2012 Chevrolet Camaro photo gallery
Highlights include an improved version of its standard 3.6L Direct Injection V-6 engine, a new FE4 performance suspension package for SS coupes and several new interior and technology improvements, such as a revised instrument panel design, new steering wheel and rear camera system.
The enhancements arrive in time for Camaro's 45th birthday, which will be celebrated with a special 45th Anniversary Special Edition package, offered on Camaro and Camaro SS. Continuing the tradition of Camaro anniversary models, the 45th Anniversary Special Edition carries all the upgrades for 2012, with additional unique design elements, inside and out.
The interior updates include a revised instrument panel appearance, with new instrument graphics and trim, as well as a new steering wheel design and a power lift feature for the front passenger seat. The steering wheel features a fresh new look and ergonomic improvements intended to support performance driving. Also new is a Rear Vision Package, which adds a rearview camera system and an auto-dimming mirror to the existing rear park assist feature. The rearview camera system complements the rear park assist by providing a video display of the area behind the car, with the video image appearing in the car's inside rearview mirror.
Also coming in early 2012 is the high-performance Camaro ZL1, the most technologically advanced car ever developed in its segment. Check this site for product updates and specifications on the Camaro ZL1 when they become available.
Camaro design
Three well-equipped models – LS, LT and SS – offer sporty, performance-oriented choices for customers.
Heritage-inspired interior and exterior convey sportiness through iconic design cues.
New exterior features include a standard rear spoiler on LS and LT models.
The new 45th Anniversary Special Edition package is available on 2LT and 2SS models. All come standard in Carbon Flash Metallic (black) and include a unique rally stripe in red and silver, with 45th Anniversary graphics on the stripes. Also included are special fender emblems, new 20-inch wheel design in deep silver, RS-style taillamp lenses, standard rear spoiler, standard HID headlamps, body-color roof molding and special-trimmed interior.
New color: Crystal Red Tintcoat replaces Red Jewel Tintcoat (later availability)
Camaro interior
A well-executed balance of heritage and contemporary features provides a fun and comfortable environment for up to four. An ambient lighting package on 2LT and 2SS trims gives the interior a special glow with LED light pipe technology.
Revised instrument panel graphics and a new steering wheel distinguish 2012 models.
The interior elements of the 45th Anniversary Special Edition package – in Jet Black – include leather-trimmed seats with the anniversary logo, white instrument panel and door trim inserts with the anniversary logo, red, white and blue stitching on the seats, and the anniversary logo on the steering wheel and sill plates.
Two audio systems with simple controls are offered and both include standard SiriusXM Satellite Radio for three months (12 months on 2LT and 2SS). The base MP3/CD radio includes a six-speaker system, a two-line, 32-character reconfigurable display and the capability to select between AM, FM and XM stations without having to reset the frequency. The premium Boston Acoustics nine-speaker/245-watt audio system is available on LT and SS models. All radios include a standard auxiliary input jack for portable devices such as an iPod.
Bluetooth connectivity for selected, compatible phones keeps drivers' eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.
Driver and passenger seats feature six-way adjustable settings (fore/aft, up/down and tilt), with power recline front seats that are standard on LT and SS models. Heated, leather-trimmed seats are part of the 2LT and 2SS trim packages.
Additional comfort and convenience come via the available sunroof and remote vehicle starter on LT and SS models. Head-up display, which projects key instrument, Turn-by-Turn navigation and audio system details on the windshield, is part of the 2LT and 2SS trim packages.
Camaro powertrain
A new, more powerful and more efficient version of the 3.6L direct-injected V-6 is standard on LS and LT models. It delivers an SAE-certified 323 horsepower (241 kW) at 6,800 rpm – 11 horsepower (8 kW) more than 2011 models. It is also 20.5 pounds (9.3 kg) lighter than the previous engine, which enhances efficiency and driving dynamics. And while more powerful than the current 3.6L, the 2012 Camaro 2LS model delivers an estimated 30 mpg on the highway. Highlights include:
New cylinder head design with integrated exhaust manifold
Improved intake port design and larger intake valves within the cylinder heads
Longer-duration intake camshafts
Composite intake manifold
New fuel pump and isolated fuel rail
New, optimized-flow fuel injectors
Structural front cover and cylinder block enhancements
Stronger and lighter-weight connecting rods
Camshaft cap and throttle body design enhancements.
Two 6.2L V-8 engines are offered in the Camaro SS, including the L99 on automatic-equipped vehicles and the LS3 on manual-equipped models. Horsepower for the L99 is 400 (298 kW) at 5,900 rpm and torque is 410 lb.-ft. (556 Nm) at 4,300 rpm. The LS3 develops 426 horsepower (318 kW) and 420 lb.-ft. (569 Nm). Output on the L99 is lower than the LS3 because of a slightly lower compression ratio (10.4:1 vs. 10.7:1) and design features of the Active Fuel Management system.
All Camaro models can be equipped with either a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission with TapShift.
The Aisin AY6 six-speed manual is standard with the 3.6L engine, and a Hydra-Matic 6L50 six-speed automatic is optional.
A Tremec TR 6060 six-speed manual is standard on the SS, and the Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic is optional.
The SS model's Tremec TR 6060 six-speed manual is designed to handle the high torque characteristics of the LS3 engine.
The final drive ratio for LS3 vehicles is 3.45:1.
Camaro chassis and suspension
Camaro features fully independent front and rear suspensions, with the standard independent using a 4.5-link system that includes a unique, L-shaped upper control arm that attaches to the knuckle at one end and incorporates a ride bushing in the rear.
Three suspension packages are offered: FE2 sport on LS and LT models; FE3 on SS Convertible models or new FE4 performance on SS Coupe models.
The front suspension has a dual ball strut system, with a direct-acting stabilizer bar.
A sub-frame at the rear is double-isolated to minimize vehicle body motions and dampen road imperfections.
Coil-over shock absorbers are used in the rear with a decoupled, hollow stabilizer bar.
Four-wheel disc brakes are standard on all models – including Brembo four-piston calipers on SS – with hydraulic brake assist.
Rack-and-pinion steering system with a 16.1:1 ratio on all models.
Standard StabiliTrak electronic stability control on all models.
Competitive/sport mode on SS models enhances on-track performance.
Performance Launch Control on SS models with the manual transmission optimizes hard-acceleration launches for quicker, more consistent performance.
LS and LT models are equipped with standard 18-inch wheels or optional 19-inch wheels; SS comes with standard 20-inch wheels and 21-inch wheels are available as a dealer-installed accessory.
The new FE4 suspension offers a performance improvement for the Camaro SS coupe. Elements include:
Retuned front and rear dampers.
New 23mm solid front (23 mm) and rear (24 mm) stabilizer bars, reshaped and positioned outboard of the shock mounts for more effective body control and more precise response.
Twenty-inch aluminum wheels and P245/45R20 front/P275/40R20 rear tires.
Camaro safety and crash-avoidance features
The Camaro is designed to help drivers avoid crashes, while protecting occupants in the event a crash occurs.
New Rear Vision Package, which includes a new rearview camera system to complement the rear park assist feature (standard on 2LT and 2SS; available on 1LT and 1SS).
Six standard air bags include side curtain air bags, which provide head protection for outboard passengers in the event of a side-impact or rollover crash.
StabiliTrak electronic stability control system helps reduce the risk of rollover crashes by keeping the vehicle in the driver's intended path by applying throttle, braking or a combination of both.
Standard four-wheel disc brake system featuring smooth, quiet operation, longer pad life and more resistance to brake pulsation.
Pretensioners minimize forward movement during a collision, and are standard on the front safety belts. Load-limiting retractors cinch the belt more tightly.
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) child seat attachment system, which is included in all second-row seating positions.
Tire pressure monitoring system, standard on all models.
Standard remote keyless entry (RKE) system provides a second function for the red panic button. Drivers can use it to locate their cars without sounding the panic alarm.
Strong body structure to absorb crash energy and provide a protective "safety cage" around occupants.
OnStar details
OnStar is standard on all Camaro models. It uses GPS and cellular phone technology to automatically call for help in the event of crash. OnStar subscribers also can use the service to be Good Samaritans by sending help to other motorists, and to call for help in other non-crash emergencies.
OnStar is the leading provider of in-vehicle safety, security and information services in the United States and Canada.
Six months of complimentary OnStar Directions and Connections service with Turn-by-Turn Navigation for easier route guidance on all Camaro models. The feature is easy to use because all directions are sent to the car by an advisor, without the need to stop. Turn-by-Turn can be cost-effective, since map updates and aftermarket navigation systems are not needed.
Stolen Vehicle Assistance helps police track the vehicle.

Photo taken by Jeannette Rose, or Jenny, a 21-year-old english major at a university in Massachusetts. She is interested in feminism, literature, and collecting assortments of tea. She suffers from various mental illnesses – depression and anxiety being the major ones – and then ADD which she finds more frustrating than anything else.
About this photo: "I was having an off day and honestly I wasn't even in the mood to take pictures… but it was a part of my 52 weeks self-portrait project and I forced myself to go out and do it. This picture represents (for me) letting go of tension, anxiety, or whatever is getting me down. I think I even started to throw the leaves more out of frustration than for the picture itself. I really, really love how it came out. I felt a lot better after taking it also.
You know… I showed this photo to my Grandma and she told me, "Jen… you should really smile, you look so sad." I don't see that though."
