text: BUSINESS Berlusconi, and Mediaset, back in power 5:00 AM PDT 4/15/2008 by Eric J. Lyman , AP FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Empty ROME -- A day after Silvio Berlusconi was elected to head his fourth government, media analysts said the billionaire media mogul's return to power could mean a partial return to old business strategies for broadcast giant Mediaset.Berlusconi, Mediaset's largest shareholder, probably will shift government ad buys from RAI to his networks, analysts said. And with a planned reform that would have capped Mediaset's share of the domestic ad market almost certainly abandoned, the broadcaster also is likely to increase its attention to the local market, which it had begun to de-emphasize in favor of foreign territories, where the proposed caps would not have an impact."With Berlusconi back in power, Mediaset is now likely to look more like the old Mediaset" from Berlusconi's last terms (2001-06), Hildebrandt and Ferrar analyst Javier Noriega said.One thing that will not change is Mediaset's planned evolution into more of a content producer, as evidenced by the company's acquisition of reality TV producer Endemol, the decision to move filmmaker Medusa under the Mediaset umbrella and the signing of exclusive content deals with Universal and Warner Bros.

Jennifer Lawrence showed off a Michelle Williams-esque crop on her Facebook page and it has her fans split over whether or not it was a good move. Jennifer decided to go for the chop after it got to that 'awkward gross length' (we've all been there Jen)
Fancy going short? Here are some top tips to get short style success...
- Try pinning hair up leaving pieces around the front to see if short hair will suit. Tuck lengths to sit as close to the head as possible, and take photos to see if you like your look from different angles.
- Look at your hair texture, if you have thick hair make sure your short style is layered to take out bulk. It'll help avoid a heavy style that can look shapeless.
- The pixie crop is the most daring of short styles, and suits most, those with round face shapes often suit this style, as it adds volume at the top of the head, helping elongate features. Avoid if you have a long face.
- Go for asymmetric longer lengths at the front to frame face if you nervous about losing length all over.

Wall Street reform law bogged down
President Barack Obama signed the Dodd-Frank financial reform bill into law 15 months ago, saying he was anxious to put new rules of the road in place for Wall Street.
But federal agencies have blown about 77 percent of the rule-making deadlines for the massive overhaul, according to a recent progress report by the law firm Davis Polk — meaning key parts of the bill are far from implementation.
Story Continued Below
Some Democratic officials see a Republican plot afoot to run out the clock, in hopes that a GOP-controlled Senate and White House can overturn the reforms. But one top Treasury official said the missed deadlines are less of a concern to the administration than the possibility that a rushed process would result in poor regulations.
"We want quality and speed, but we're not going to sacrifice quality for speed," Deputy Treasury Secretary Neal Wolin told POLITICO. "We want to make sure that we do these rules in a thorough way."
In some cases, Wolin said, politics are slowing down the process. Senate Republicans are blocking the nomination of Richard Cordray to head the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau unless changes in governance are made to the agency. GOP lawmakers also have introduced bills to repeal all or part of the 848-page Dodd-Frank law.
"There are certainly some who've sought to delay or roll back provisions of Dodd-Frank or slow things down," Wolin said. "We don't think that's helpful. What's important now is we go about the business of putting in place a stronger financial system that will better protect our country."
Republicans push back against the charge, saying that regulators are simply unable to write regulations from the law in a timely or effective way.
Obama has tried to spark more movement on the reforms by taking his case directly to the public in speeches and news conferences.
"What we've seen over the last year," he said at a news conference this month, "is not only did the financial sector — with the Republican Party in Congress — fight us every inch of the way, but now, you've got these same folks suggesting that we should roll back all those reforms and go back to the way it was before the crisis."
But a strategy that largely depends on standing behind a podium and shaming his opponents is unlikely to save the reforms from being killed or delayed, said Arthur Levitt, who was chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Clinton administration.
"A president that wants something as complex as this to take place has to devote an incredible amount of his resources and political capital to getting it done," he said. "Left to the legislators and regulators, it will sink and rot in the miasma of dialogue and debate."
In putting together the rules, regulators are sorting through thousands of comment letters and answering questions at congressional hearings and meetings with executives and lobbyists from the financial services industry. The sheer volume of activity makes it hard to act quickly or decisively, lending credence to worries that Republicans are obstructing progress.
"They hate it; they're afraid to take it head on, so they're trying to slow it down in hopes they take over the White House," said Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), one of the architects of the 2010 law.
Bart Chilton, who as a member of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission is among the regulators approving the new rules, said getting input from investment firms is critical, but some have less than helpful intentions.

Spring. Time of the year where life emerges from the dark and cold places it's been hiding all winter long. The time where terraces re-open on the sunny side of streets, where beer starts to flow more freely, and where people start to do stuff outside in the open for a change.
In these times, my PC, gaming buddy for the last few months, doesn't see as much action. It stays in standby mode longer then usual, its fan keep quiet for whole evenings at a time and it just doesn't get the respect it deserves.
But do not worry. Things will settle down and rain will cool this spring fever soon enough. Next thing you know, I'll be back to my ol'tricks, gettting a tan from my CRT.
See you soon!

What's on this week: 20 September
Prince-inspired theatre and Brussels' art and antiquity scene: our pick of events in Flanders and Brussels this week
PERFORMANCE: Virginity
Intended for audiences aged 12 and up, Virginity eschews the schmaltz of the usual offering for kids in favour of contemporary theatre, dance and live music—all united under the sign of the artist formerly known as Prince. The production's four young performers apply the Purple One's pop wisdom to the dilemmas faced by adolescents: community, identity and sexuality. Virginity premieres at Hetpaleis ahead of a month-long tour of Flanders. Until 1 October at Hetpaleis, Antwerp
VISUAL ARTS: Perpetual Uncertainty
The advent of the atomic bomb in 1945 inaugurated an era of atomic art, pregnant with explosive power and impending doom. The traces of nuclear power are more subtle in the 21st century, when the threat of mutually assured destruction has been substituted by the silent accumulation of radiation in the environment. Perpetual Uncertainty features works by 21 international artists, all addressing the nuclear Anthropocene – the current stage of geologic evolution marked by nuclear activity. The free exhibition is accompanied by events, including field trips to nuclear sites with the artists and a roundtable discussion on the politics and aesthetics of the nuclear age. Until 10 December at Z33, Hasselt
EVENT: Brussels Art Square
With its boutique galleries and weekly market, Brussels' Zavel district has long been known by locals as the place to score art and antiquities. Brussels Art Square was conceived in 2005 to communicate that reputation on an international level. Each edition boasts loads of guest dealers from across Europe selling everything from modernist paintings to pre-Columbian sculptures from the Americas. Previous editions have showcased British, Italian and Spanish galleries. BAS 2017 shines a spotlight on France. A dozen French vendors join some 30 local names to fill the streets of the Zavel with collectible art of every stripe. 22-24 September at Zavel, Brussels
CONCERT: The Breeders
Founded by Pixies bassist Kim Deal and featuring her twin sister Kelley, the Breeders have been crafting critically acclaimed alternative rock since 1989. It hasn't been a smooth ride. The Deal sisters have worked through a long line of bassists and drummers over the years. Indeed, even Kelley has often strayed from the fold. Now operating with something close to the original line-up, the band continue to tour sporadically although the last studio album is nearly a decade old. Despite all that, nearly half of this autumn's tour dates sold out quickly. 23 October, 19.00 at Trix, Antwerp
More events that deserve your attention
Think Pink: Benefit concert celebrating the 10th anniversary of the national breast cancer campaign, featuring Flemish indie-rock girl choir Scala, Koen Buyse of Zornik and an after-party led by DJ Regi of Milk Inc. 21 September, Ancienne Belgique, Anspachlaan 110, Brussels
Nachtasiel (The Lower Depths): Theater Antigone presents the still highly relevant 1902 piece by Russian playwright Maxim Gorki about outcasts, wanderers and antisocials. Tours Flanders following initial run. (In Dutch) 27 September to 18 November, Theater Antigone, Overleiestraat 47, Kortrijk
Geta Brătescu: The Romanian artist's first solo exhibition in Belgium is a compact overview of the remarkably varied oeuvre of the 91-year-old, including drawing, sewing, printmaking, performance, film and installation. Until 14 January, MSK Gent, Fernand Scribedreef 1, Ghent
Mikio Naruse retrospective: Screenings of 20 titles by the mid-20th-century Japanese filmmaker whose extraordinary filmography includes domestic dramas such as When a Woman Ascends the Stairs, Floating Clouds and Yearning. Until 18 October, Cinematek, Baron Hortastraat 9, Brussels
Yu Hua: The internationally renowned Chinese writer talks about what it is like to be read outside of your own linguistic and cultural area, and gives his perspective on today's China. (In English) 21 September 20.00-21.30, Passa Porta, Antoine Dansaertstraat 46, Brussels
Meertaligheid (Multilingual): Several experts discuss multilingualism in Ghent, including its challenges and advantages, its use in the classroom and as the contact language in an immigration context. 26 September 19.00-21.00, De Krook, Miriam Makebaplein 1, Ghent

Where Else Can You Apply Your Strengths?
Quote of the Week
"What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing."
— Pablo Picasso
Where Else Can You Apply Your Strengths?
by Nancy Birnbaum-Gerber
When we're stuck and frustrated by lack of progress, we need to remember that, in most cases, we already have the skills and resources necessary to achieve what we desire. By reviewing our past and current accomplishments, and determining what has made us successful, we can discover how to apply those competencies to our present challenges.
One of my wonderful coaching clients is an accomplished creative professional. Like many entrepreneurs she finds herself continually resisting and procrastinating about marketing and promoting her services. She knows it's essential to her continued development, yet she can't muster up the 'passion' for it. She tends to wait until she's motivated or in the mood — which means nothing much happens with any consistency.
I asked about her long standing ability to sustain her health and fitness during most of her adult life — no matter what difficulties come along, she always gets to the gym, eats pretty well, and maintains her weight and general well being.
She clarified that her success in this area is tied to a few essential factors:
- Her health-related activities are 'non-negotiables' — whatever happens, even when she isn't 'in the mood', she nearly always does what she knows is best for her health.
- She achieves her best results when she chooses a specific set of activities, and sticks with them over the course of time.
- She structures her environment for success — keeps healthy groceries in her home, spends time with others who also have healthy habits, etc.
We then worked on translating these skills to her marketing activities. She realized that she hasn't been consistent at all — any excuse easily distracts her. Therefore, her first step is to make an absolute commitment to a specific amount of time every week that she'll devote to marketing, no matter what. Next, she realized that she needs to focus on and create a specific marketing 'workout' — choose a few activities rather than overload herself, and do those consistently for at least 3 months in order to gauge the results. And, third, she's exploring additional ways, along with our coaching, to create an environment that supports her efforts — books, seminars, a mastermind group, whatever activities will keep her focused. By re-framing her past successes, she's discovering how to apply her already-proven achievement capabilities.

Babson College 61, Connecticut College 51 Vadas Tallies 16 Points, Six Rebounds for Camels
BRISTOL, R.I. -(Roger Williams University Athletic Communications) The Roger Williams University Men's Basketball team began the 2011 Courtyard by Marriott Tip-Off Tournament Saturday afternoon with a 52-44 win over Fisher College. The Hawks move on to face Babson College, who defeated Connecticut College 61-51, in the championship game. The Hawks were paced by Pat Flanagan (Somerville, Mass.), who led all scorers with 18 points to go along with eight rebounds. Mike Engemann (Red Bank, N.J.) added nine points and three boards, while freshman Adam Cook (Manasquan, N.J.) added seven points off the bench. For Fisher, Dennis Norford (New Haven, Conn.) just missed a double-double with nine points and a game-high 16 rebounds. Zack Pope (Orlando, Fla.) added nine points and seven boards, while Zachary Campbell (Cape Coral, Fla.) added nine points, five rebounds, and two steals. Defense played a key role in the game for both teams in the first half, as the Hawks shot only 25 percent (7-of-28) in the period, while Fisher hit at a 32.1 percent clip (9-of-28). The Hawks held a slim 23-19 lead going into the second half and managed to hold on to its lead throughout the second period. In the second half, Fisher continued to remain within striking range, never trailing by more than eight points in the period. A jumper by Norford at the 14:50 mark pulled Fisher to within three (25-28), but would not come any closer. RWU's lead hovered between four and eight over the remainder of the game, with a slam dunk in the closing seconds by Flanagan securing the win for RWU. In the second game of the day, Babson staved off a last-minute effort by Connecticut College at the end of the game to come away with the 61-51 win. Marcus McDermott (Ridgefield, Conn.) finished with a game-high 20 points along with nine rebounds and three assists. Russell Braithwaite (Brooklyn, N.Y.) added eight points and nine rebounds, while Matt Florio (Princeton, N.J.) chipped in with ten points. Matt Vadas (Spring Lake Heights, N.J.) finished with 16 points and six rebounds for Connecticut College to lead the team. Rob Harrigan (Milford, Conn.) added 12 points and four boards. John Bullitt (Quincy, Mass.) had eight points and three steals. "Our guys battled hard on the glass and defended hard against a tough, well coached team," Connecticut College Head Men's Basketball Coach Tom Satran said. "We came back three different times and took the lead but didn't consistently generate the type of shots we needed to get to beat a quality team." Babson began the game on a 7-0 run before the Camels scored six straight to pull within one. That would be as close as Connecticut College would get as the Beavers lead wire-to-wire over the course of the half. The Beavers shot 48 percent (12-of-25) in the first half, while the Camels were only 7-of-22 (31.8%) in the period. The Camels took their first lead of the game in the second half on a pair of free throws by Vadas to go up 32-30 with 14:37 to play. Connecticut held the lead for a six-minute stretch until a three-pointer by McDermott put Babson back on top 44-42 with 8:42 left. From there, an 11-3 Beaver run put Babson on top with just over a minute to play. A couple of Camel three-pointers pulled Connecticut to within six, but the Beavers hit all six of their free throws in the final minute to secure the win. Roger Williams will face Babson in the championship game Sunday afternoon at 3:00 p.m., with Connecticut College and Fisher playing in the consolation game prior at 1:00 p.m.

Have a Great Weekend, Y'all!
Oh, wait, it's now Saturday since it's 1:15 a.m..
I've just put my Sim to bed after giving her an aloe plant to soothe her sunburn. My god complex is out of control here. Tomorrow, after I push the hair balls from the corners of my floors, I will probably end up making my sim build a sandcastle, have sex in the elevator of her house, and prune the orange tree. Ah heck, maybe she'll finally plant those tomatoes too.
Scary, idn't it?
Visited with new friends tonight. Had a great time. Very interesting people, great conversation. We played a half hour round of 6-degrees-of-whomever-the-hell-you-can-think-of, and much to the delight of my friend's 10-year-old son, he discovered he was four degrees from Hannah Montana and her dad, all by himself. I was so proud.
Anyway- gotta head north to the bedroom. My pillow is lonely, and if I have any hope of being productive, sleep must be a priority. Lord knows I'm lazy enough without adding tired on top of it!
Hugs to all - - be sure and scroll down just in case you've missed anything. There are some pretty funny videos.
Leave me comments - please? I know you're here, but I don't know what you're thinking when you visit this part of my asylum. Say hi, and tell me what's on your mind.
P.S. - Congratulations to Kimmer Limmer Ding Dong and her new diamond ring, courtesy of her fabulous italian stud of a fiance, Dante! Much love and happiness, you both deserve it!

Bravery vs. Boredom
Wick is our almost two-year-old tabby whose personality is unlike any other cat that has decided to accept me as their human.
With the cold of winter snapping its icy teeth at us, the Wickster can't be bothered to go outside, except on the most necessary of occasions. But the boredom of self-imposed house confinement makes the deep, belly-rubbing snow look like it might be kind of fun to her. Add a little false-warming sunshine and Wick is outta the house to play.
When Wick steps out of the house, the first thing she does is shake the snow from her front paws. Then she licks them and puts them back on the icy ground. And then wonders why she can't move.
Once she's thawed her paws, she jumps off the patio to the snow below, staying close to the house where the snow isn't so deep. But a fluttery leaf grabs her attention as it rolls across the stark white landscape towards the forest and she chases it, landing neck deep in the snow with each leap. She stops and starts stepping more carefully, as if realizing that her weight won't sink so far in the snow if she doesn't jump in it. Smart kitty.
Then a random woodpecker, at the very top of a 50-foot tree grabs Wick's attention. Uh oh. I know our cat. She's going for it.
She dives towards the trunk of the leafless tree, scrambling up about eight feet to do some reconnaissance from the roof of a bird house nailed to the side of the elm. She looks up – way up, and spots her plaything.
The woodpecker is oblivious, but can't seem to get what he wants from the frozen tree. He jumps to another branch, and Wick climbs another 20 feet. Oy. That's bravery.
Our cat is now at least 30 feet in the air and I'm having visions of firefighters dancing through my brain.
As she perches on a precarious-looking branch, I open the back door and ask her how she plans on getting down. She glances at me for just a moment before making a dangerous hop to another branch that bends despite her light weight. She looks skyward once more and finds her potential toy has flown away in search of less-frozen branches.
Now little Miss Wick has to get her furry behind down the tree, that too-tall, stick-straight tree where she is looking down from her 30-foot-high throne. Great. I call Peter and tell him to have a look. He wisely tells me not to worry – she got up there, she'll get down.
And down she comes. Like she's sliding down a fireman's pole, using her claws as she backs herself down to the birdhouse perch that started the whole ascension into the sky. She jumps from the birdhouse to the ground, and comes leaping back to the warmth and safety of the house.
She meows at me a few times, as if asking if I saw her, what I thought, and too-bad-I-scared-you-but-I-would-do-it-again-you-gutless-human.
Sure, do it again, Wick. But wait until spring or summer when the leaves hide your bravery. Until then, please, kitty kat – you're aging me. Stay bored! It's much easier on us humans.

The Bastard Break Up from Jon Lajoie
Wednesday, 6 February 2008
Goodbye, Randy. We'll Really Miss You.
How can anyone sum up a man's life in just a few words?
I knew Randy Slater for only a couple of years before he left us suddenly on Saturday, February 2nd. As I write this, it's still difficult to wrap my mind around the fact that Randy isn't with us anymore, that his larger-than-life personality and sense of humour is gone forever.
I imagine that most of our Lanark County community is feeling the same way.
Of course, I do know that Randy wouldn't want us all crying about it. He'd want us to get back to work, get the job done, quit whinin'. After the work is done would be soon enough to tip one in his honour. He'd want us to celebrate his life, but make sure that business carried on as usual. Even Winston, the family dog would probably be ordered to go bury a bone or something.
Randy was entirely too young to be finished on this earthly plane, even though none of us can pretend to know why he had to go. He was about to celebrate his 50th birthday, and took the ribbing with his normal good-natured humour. In 2007, he celebrated 25 years of marriage to his wife, Lisa, and has two children, Megan (21), and Lindsay (19). Lisa and Randy were looking forward to a well-deserved holiday in a few weeks.
Randy was one of the hardest working men I knew. He always had an idea, was always on top of whatever his beloved Home Hardware store needed. There wasn't anything that he missed when it came to his work, and even if he was a little disorganized and messy, Randy knew his stuff. Whenever I visited the friendly chaos that is upstairs in his office, I wondered how he could possibly know where anything was in the paper explosion that was his desk. The chaos extended to the entire office, but that man was sharp, missed nothing. Even Jody, his faithful assistant, wouldn't dare to upset his system.
Randy loved life, loved people, his Home Hardware store and his Home Installs business. He enjoyed a business growth spurt last summer and was over the moon about his success in Home Installs, his plans to buy another installs truck and hire more crew on the top of his list. His attention to customer service was unequalled, and it was an admirable quality that he enforced on all of his employees, making Carleton Place Home Hardware the friendliest and most helpful place to shop.
Randy was a man that knew how to get the job done, and usually that job started with a handshake. A handshake meant something to him, as did every person he did business with. He loved both of his communities of Smiths Falls and Carleton Place and all the people he knew in them.
The bewilderment and sense of loss will be with us for a while, as it's all part of the process. But Jody's son Logan says it best when speaking of Randy: "God must've needed Randy to build some mansions in Heaven."
You will be greatly missed, Randy. And we may shed a tear or two, but just pretend you don't see. And we'll promise to keep going and carrying on what you built in your life. Don't worry, Randy, help will always be close to Home.
Rest well, have a kick-ass afterlife, and thanks, Randy - for everything.

The Writers' Strike is Killing Us, One Reality Show at a Time!
With no end in sight to the Writer's Guild of America strike, it's time to come up with something else to do than watch television.
Unfortunately for me, it's the middle of winter and outside scares me.
So what is a person to do who is addicted to television and is afraid of icy winter conditions? And please don't try and get all superior on me and tell me I'm the only one with this particular personality combination. I have statistics to back up my claims.
Here is one good thing about the writers' strike. Commercial breaks are shorter because nobody wants to advertise on a reality show or a third-time-run program. Yay for that.
The strike also expands the mind. Hear me out. Hopefully all of us are aware of this strike, are thinking about it and maybe taking a side. Our minds expand with the knowledge that it's so much more than the 'stars' of whatever shows are on the idiot box. The Daily Show (now A Daily Show to show solidarity with the strikers) is amusing, but not nearly as razor-sharp funny without John Stewart's brilliant crew of writers.
The strike also expands the mind by forcing you to watch new shows if you can't find the OFF button on your remote. I've been enjoying a couple of new choices because I have no idea where my OFF button is, and my Tivo likes to work overtime.
Did you know that Scott Baio is 45 and Still Single (at press time, Scott Baio is now 46 and married with child, after he 'manned-up' and droppedhis Lothario ways.)?
When I was 12, my dream was to marry him (after I'd given up on my dream of Donny Osmond), so my curiosity was more than piqued by this reality show. After two episodes, its' clear to me why he stayed single for so long.
Did you know that 80% of The Real Housewives of Orange County have had some sort of plastic surgery, and they all live in some form of gated community? Is it any wonder I'm happier in Canada? Way too many expectations back on the home-turf.
The Donald (Trump) has an even tighter grip on the reality wagon handles with his latest reality offering in Pageant Place, a 'show' about the current title holders of Miss USA, America, Universe and Teen USA, a conglomerate he owns. He takes all his current title holders and makes them live in a house for a year while the cameras are rolling. Let's just say that this is not a glamorous picture of the franchise, and it wouldn't surprise me if participation in these pageants dropped dramatically. I thought this was supposed to be about poise and beauty and education? Something about a scholarship? HA!
And what's worse? I watched it. With fascinated horror, and maybe a little bit of glee.
Come spring when it's no longer a danger to my aging parts to have a nice long walk outside, this won't be an issue for me anymore. I will be able to find the OFF button because what's outside in Lanark County is infinitely more interesting than what's on the tube.
But until then, let's support our writers. Watching the further deterioration of television alone should prove how important and talented these people are. Click the link to get an understanding of what the WGA strike is all about.
And if we don't get the writers back soon, I can't be held responsible for my further deterioration into the voyeuristic realm of peeking in the windows of someone else's life through 'reality' television.

A puppet play by Nigel Camac
Food has been stolen, and someone is guilty. But all students are shocked when someone takes the punishment for the guilty party.Kind of reminds you of . . well . . the besterest part of Easter.
Cast 5 puppets:
Set Obviously a puppet stage
Backdrop pictures of play equipment and trees etc
Backdrop pictures of a schoolroom with alphabet and rules
A sign saying "3 Weeks Earlier"
A sign saying "Present day again".
Please contact the author for additional information, email@example.com
Sample of Script
Scene 1
Lucy and Matt are in the schoolyard on Easter Thursday. Backdrop can include pictures of play equipment and a few trees etc.
Lucy ….I'm so excited Matt, I can hardly stand still! (Lucy is jumping all over the place)
Matt Yeh, 4 days of no school. I love the Easter break.
Lucy What's the besterest part for you?
Matt That's not a word Lucy.
Lucy What?
Matt Besterest.
Lucy Oh Matt, you're not the teacher. Anyways, you know what I mean.
Matt (A million miles away in a trance) Chocolate.
Lucy Chocolate?
Matt The (pausing for effect and saying with emphasis) besterest part of Easter.
Lucy Oh chocolate, yeh. (Dreamily wondering) I wonder what I'll get.
Matt (Animated) I'm getting this gynormous egg, with like hundreds of incy-wincy ones inside. And a rainbow coloured candy egg and yeh, this rabbit surrounded by lots of little bunnies. Then there's this …
Lucy (Cutting in suspiciously) Hey, you're not meant to know yet.
Matt (surprised) Oops! (slyly) Let's just say, I know where the Easter bunny shops. Anyway, what's the best part for you?
Lucy For me it's the hot crossed buns, with loads of butter. Mmmmm, you can keep them coming all Good Friday!
Matt (Quizzickly) Is it called Good Friday 'cos there's no school?
Lucy No silly, Good Friday is the day we celebrate Jesus dying on the cross.
Matt So we celebrate someone dying, and call the day "good". Lucy, you really have lost me now.
Lucy Matt, it's like this : Jesus took the punishment for all the things we've done wrong. That's why we call the day "good". (Suddenly recalling) It's a bit like what Big Bruce did in class the other day.
Matt Oh yeh, that was good. I still remember how worried I was when Ms Hammond called us back to class during recess time!
Matt and Lucy disappear
Scene 2
A sign comes up saying : "3 WEEKS EARLIER"
Scene is set in a schoolroom. Backdrop can include a blackboard, maybe the alphabet and a list of rules.
Enter Stage R, Ms Hammond
Ms H (Musing) Why can't they just follow the rules? Everything was going so well.
(Loudly) Children, back to class this minute!
Noise off-stage of approaching students. Then a knock on the door.
Ms H Come in quietly children.
Matt, Lucy, Big Bruce and Timid Tim enter stage L
Matt What is it Ms Hammond?
Ms H Well, you know our rules….(She points to the list of rules)
All 4 (In unison)Yeh?
Ms H (Angrily clearing her throat)
All 4 (Coming to attention) Yes Ms Hammond.
Ms H Unfortunately, one has been broken.
All 4 puppets gasp and stare at one another horrified.
Ms H Rules are rules and stealing is forbidden. Now, the offender will be caught and the punishment will be given.
Timid Tim bowes his head and moves away from the others.
Matt Was it you Bruce?
Bruce No chance. What about you Lucy, did you steal something?
Lucy I would never do it!
Lucy, Bruce and Matt turn to Timid Tim who seems repelled by their gaze.
T T (Finally he comes forward shamefacedly) Uhhhhh, it was…..it was me.
Ms H (Surprised) You Timmy?

A – DHCP is NOT the problem.
B – Conflicting credentials is the problem.
C – Did you mean to say that you went to "Active Directory – Users and Computers" and in the list of computers you deleted the named instance of the retired computer? The computer that failed (motherboard/hard drive)? Or both?
D – Presuming Windows XP Pro on the laptop, login as the local administrator on the laptop. Does not need to to be connected to the network. Right click 'My Computer' and choose properties. On the 'Computer Name' tab change it to workgroup not domain. You may get a request for domain credentials, or an error message that the domain controller could not be contacted. Proceed, and it will switch to workgroup. This will require a restart. Log back in as local administrator and go to the same tab, but this time change the name to something unique and not related to either previous incarnation. This will require a restart. Attach a network cable and log back in as local administrator, go to the same tab and join the domain. You will be prompted for an account/password set with the permissions to perform the join (members of the 'Account Operators' group). It may take one to five minutes for the 'Welcome to xxx domain' to appear, depending on network speed and the number of computers in the domain.
And it is time to restart again.
E – Forcing a name change on a disconnected computer is the only dependable way to clear identity crisis for computers in a domain.

text: Tuesday, July 01, 2014 New Michigan Law Means All 51 US Jurisdictions Allow Direct Access to PTs The people of Michigan are better off—and the physical therapy profession has reached an important milestone—now that legislation has been signed into law allowing allow patients in Michigan to go directly to a physical therapist (PT) for evaluation and treatment without a physician's referral. The legislative victory now means that all 50 states and the District of Columbia allow for some form of direct access to PTs for evaluation and treatment. SB 690, signed into law by Gov Rick Snyder, was sponsored by Sen John Moolenaar and promoted by the Michigan Chapter of APTA (MPTA). The new law creates the option for patients to see a PT without a referral or prescription from a physician for up to 21 days or 10 treatment visits, and will also allow patients to see a PT directly for injury prevention and fitness promotion, with no time or visit limit. SB 690 also strengthens the profession by specifying that only licensed PTs may use the term "doctor of physical therapy" in connection with their services. A similar bill was sponsored in the Michigan House of Representatives by Rep Margaret O'Brien. The passage of this legislation is the culmination of many years of hard-fought effort on the part of MPTA that at times faced significant opposition. "The goal of direct access to physical therapy in Michigan has been 34 years in the making," said MPTA President Sue Talley, PT, DPT, C/NDT, in a news release. "This achievement would not have been possible without the commitment of multiple MPTA presidents, legislative chairs, the grass roots efforts of our members and patients, and Sen Moolenaar and Rep O'Brien." "This is a significant milestone for the people of Michigan and for the physical therapy profession," said Paul A. Rockar Jr, PT, DPT, MS, president of APTA. "APTA has long advocated for improved patient access to physical therapists, and I applaud Michigan's achievement in making this policy a reality." The milestone of achieving some form of direct access to treatment in all 51 US jurisdictions comes on the heels of achieving direct access to evaluation throughout the US in 2013. While notable in its own right, the achievement sets the stage for association efforts to improve access in some states that have more restrictive direct access laws that "are not based on evidence or on the best interests of the patient," according to Rockar. The new Michigan law will take effect January 1, 2015. APTA provided a direct access grant to the Michigan Chapter to support its efforts on SB 690. Gov Rick Snyder signs SB 690, making Michigan the 51st jurisdiction to allow some form of direct access to PTs.

Castlevania Netflix Teaser Trailer
Unless you have been living in a world with no internet access, you've probably seen the trailer for our upcoming Netflix series, Castlevania. We have been hard at work for the past year and half with Frederator Studios, Netflix, Warren Ellis, & Adi Shankar to create this amazing series.
Although we were expecting things to blow up once the trailer was released, we have been completely floored by the level of excitement and the incredibly nice things people have been saying about Castlevania. You guys have NO idea how hard it has been to keep this such a secret for so long, and we are so excited that we can finally talk about it. Not only has the teaser trailer been released, but the official poster has been released, and dang, the internet seems to have blown up with excitement!
From Forbes, to Inquisitr, to Nerd Reactor, we think it's pretty safe to say that everyone is super pumped for July 7!
Stay tuned to our Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram pages for the latest updates, including our upcoming release party! Keep your fangs out!

Phillip Foxley is very good at tackling universal issues in a very small way, the way of the world seen as smaller, kitchen sink philosophies rather than trying to make big, overtly-verbose or over egged points. It's the British way I guess. It's Up To Us! (he does like his exclamation marks) was a deft and well-crafted piece, working with understatement, political opinion and subtlety. This time out he heads the other way and delivers a song that sparks with New Wave twitchiness and post-punk verve with Pete Hopkins copping just the right amount of terrace attitude and street punk singalong style to show where the songs heart lies.
But that was then and this is now and although it is easy to see where the song has its musical roots, the play off here is how those young musical turks and world changing punks have faired in the years between then and now. They may still feel the same about the world, still have the same hopes and dreams for the future, feel that they are still part of the musical revolution. It's just that they can't find their keys, have lost the TV remote control again and are pretty sure that there was something important that they were supposed to be doing tonight.
It's a great little tune, one that matches the musical energy of youth with the lyrical realities of the joys of ageing. Yes, they might have a vinyl record collection to die for but did they remember to put the bins out? Musically it is punchy and perfectly paced, captures the joys of being down the front of a gig in 1978 but from the armchair of 40 years later it all seems like a long time ago. Rock and roll is nothing without a sense of humour and I've Forgotten Something Else! Is perfectly self-deprecating, poignant and slightly silly. I should know, I'm the target audience.

I've always loved the way those wrap apron skirts look. But I hate wrap skirts, I'm just too worried they're going to come undone. I have seen people add a zipper to the back or side but I hate committing to a size in a way that zippers require.
This skirt has the look of an apron skirt but slips on (and stays on) without a zipper and still has a flexible fit. You could say it's my new fav.
What You Need
This can be easily adjusted to a kids size by decreasing the width (I'd use I length of 44″ for kids under 8 and over 8 I'd just do a very full skirt and do the same width) and changing the length.
- Skirt Fabric 2 pieces 44 X length of desired skirt plus 3 (for me this was 27 inches) I used Bittersweet Main Orange
- Band Fabric 1/2 yard I used Bittersweet Floral Green
- Elastic enough to stretch across your back (for me this was 10 inches)
What to Do
- Make the sash. Start by cutting or tearing your fabric into 3 pieces each 6×44 inches long. Then cut one of those pieces down to the the length of the distance of the front of your waist (basically from one side to the other for me this is 17 inches).
- Next sew your your short edges of one of your long pieces to the short edge of your middle piece right sides together.
- Repeat with the other short edge of the middle piece and the other piece of fabric right sides together. Now you should have a long strip of fabric.
- Next fold the sash in half right sides together. Sew down an angle at the short edge and then down the length of the fabric with a 1/4 inch seam allowance. Leave the other short edge open for easy turning.
- Turn your sash right side out. I like using a loop turner for this.
- Iron your sash making sure to tuck the open end in at an angle.
- Sew across the end to close the hole up. Set your sash piece aside.
- Sew your your skirt by sewing the side edges of the skirt pieces with right sides together.
- Finish the top and bottom edges of the skirt with a serger, zig zag stitch or pinking shears.
- Gather the top edge of the skirt. For a slower treatment of how to gather see my awesome cheater gathering trick.
- Pin your elastic to the back edge of your skirt gather your skirt to the elastic. Sew the elastic onto the skirt while stretching the elastic (this is easier to understand when watching the video).
- Attach the band to the skirt.
I love that this skirt looks like a dress but that you can change the top for a completely different look or change up the type of sleeves for different occasions or weather!
I also think it's fun to sometimes wear the bow in the front and other times wear the bow in the back!

Our inspiration for this week's recipe comes from the saying: "the most beautiful things in life are simple." We've been creating a lot of complex recipes lately, so we wanted to take a step back to do something a bit simpler. Using our cookie recipe from our recipe page, we created these yummy Matcha Christmas Tree Cookies that bake in only 10 minutes. The beauty of this recipe lies in its versatility; not only are they easy to make, but with some cookie cutters and food coloring (for the icing), you can transform these cookies into anything you want! Make the holidays a little brighter this year by making these with friends and loved ones. Happy Holidays!
Makes 20-24 Christmas tree cookies
- 1 Tbsp Aiya Cooking Grade Matcha
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 5 1/2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup + 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 4 1/2 -5 tsp water
- A handful of white sugar pearl sprinkles
- Other desired toppings
- Sift the Matcha, flour, and baking powder together in a bowl.
- Place the butter in a bowl and allow it to come to room temperature. Once soft, mix it until it is smooth. Add the sugar in parts (1/3 to 1/2 at a time) until it is fully mixed into the butter and the entire mixture is white and smooth.
- Beat the egg and mix into the butter/sugar mixture little by little along with the vanilla extract. Once they are both incorporated, fold the sifted ingredients into it in parts (1/3 to 1/2 at a time). When fully mixed in, wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
- Pre heat your oven to 360F. Lightly flour a working surface and roll out half the dough until it is about 1/10" thick. If the dough is too crumbly and dry, lightly knead the dough with a splash of water until a more solid dough forms. When rolling the dough out, the edges of the dough may crack- this is normal. Place some water on your fingers and mend the cracks back together as best as you can.
- Once rolled out, use a Christmas tree cookie cutter and cut out as many trees as you can. Place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment.
- Take the remaining scraps and combine it with the other half of the dough. Repeat steps 4-5 with the rest of the dough.
- Bake for about 10 minutes and allow the cookies to cool.
- In a separate bowl, mix the powdered sugar and water to make a simple icing. Start with 3 tsp water, and add more water if the mixture is too thick, 1 tsp at a time. The icing should not be paste-like, not runny.
- Once the cookies have cooled, spoon a small amount of icing on to the cookie, outlining where you want the "snow" to end. Once the outline is done, use the back of the spoon to smooth out the icing, making sure not to put too little or too much.
- Add some white sugar pearl sprinkles (and any other desired toppings) and place on a drying rack to cool.
- Share with family and friends :- )

The main reason our clients choose us is actually very simple: because we've proven they can trust us.
We're aware that many, many hours of work go into the preparation of a tender, and they often must be delivered to a deadline.

text: Share: Comments Print May 9, 2014 at 8:16 AM NFL Draft: What national media are saying about NFC West Posted by Don Shelton Here's what national and regional media are saying about the NFL Draft and NFC West picks: First, here's Jayson Jenks' look at all three of the other NFC West team's picks. ARIZONA CARDINALS Kent Somers, AZ Central/Arizona Republic "You look at his resume, his stats, his height, weight and speed versus any other safety in this draft … and we wondered all along why he wasn't talked about along with some of those other top players," (Cardinals GM Steve) Keim said. Chris Burke, SI.com Not really a poor pick here, but an early one. Bucannon almost certainly would have been around into Friday, so the Cardinals may wonder down the road if they could have addressed another need here — like the offensive line — and then circled back on Bucannon in Round 2. John Breech, CBSSports.com The Cardinals could have gone with a quarterback with the 27th overall pick on Thursday, but instead of drafting Carson Palmer's eventual replacement, Arizona decided to bolster its secondary by taking Deone Bucannon. Matt Verderame, SB Nation Bucannon is known as being one of the faster, rangier safeties coming into the NFL. At 6'1 and 211 pounds, Bucannon is also big enough to come up in run support and lay the wood to a ball carrier. Everybody in the Pac-12 is quite aware of Bucannon's prowess, as he was named a first-team All-American and first-team Pac-12 selection last season. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS Can Inman, Bay Area News Group (Jimmie) Ward's addition is the latest, needed step in the secondary's overhaul this offseason, seeing how Rogers and fellow starting cornerback Tarell Brown joined the Raiders in free agency. John Breech, CBSSports.com Not only will Ward help the 49ers in the secondary, but he could help them on special teams too. The first-team All-American set Northern Illinois' career-record for blocked punts with four during his four years at the school. Doug Farrar, SI.com In Super Bowl XLVIII, Seattle's Kam Chancellor re-established the value of the safety who could play in lurk (midfield) coverage against slot receivers and tight ends, adding an important element to a team's overall defensive concepts. Ward has already done a lot of lurking, and he'll be a great asset when the 49ers move to their nickel and dime coverages, because he covers so much ground, and in so many different ways. Bill Williamson, ESPN/NFL Nation My take: Stunned. Ward is a fine player, but considered by some as a second-round pick. The 49ers have now taken safeties in the first round of the past two drafts. … Ward could see some time in nickel packages as the 49ers are somewhat weak at cornerback. ST. LOUIS RAMS Chris Wesseling, NFL.com The St. Louis Rams' ground attack just got a shot in the arm. With the No. 2 overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, the Rams selected Auburn offensive tackle Greg Robinson. They followed up the Robinson pick by staying focused on getting bigger up front. Pittsburgh defensive tackle Aaron Donald went off the board to St. Louis at No. 13. Drawing comparisons to Hall of Famer Willie Roaf and seven-time Pro Bowl selection Orlando Pace, Robinson is a physical marvel who should make an instant impact as a road-grading run blocker. Rob Rang, CBSSports.com General manager Les Snead and head coach Jeff Fisher took full advantage, nabbing the best offensive lineman in the draft in Greg Robinson and the top defensive tackle in Pitt's Aaron Donald. Robinson's dimensions and dominance as a run blocker have earned comparisons to former Rams lineman Orlando Pace. Donald has been likened to Hall of Famer John Randle and joins star rusher Robert Quinn, developing tackle Michael Brockers and the steady Chris Long to give St. Louis the league's most imposing defensive line.

Reliability You Can Count On
Your operations depend more on IT than ever before. An outage can idle your entire team, costing you revenue, productivity and prestige with your customers. Without significant capital investments, you simply can't match the reliability of Epic-Cloud. Every system is redundant and configured for instant failover. With Epic-Cloud we backup your data once every second and can recover entire servers within minutes. We stand behind it all with a Service Level Agreement that guarantees your uptime.
Agility At The Speed Of Your Business
You can scale your Epic-Cloud up or down as you experience changes in your business. Our contracts are month to month and there are no long-term commitments. Launch servers and virtual desktops in minutes. Add or remove capacity on the fly. Want to test the latest patch from your ERP vendor before putting it in production? No problem, just spin up a temporary clone of your existing server. That sort of flexibility simply hasn't been cost effective for on premise IT environments in the past.
Epic-Cloud Improves Productivity In Ways You Can't Imagine Today
Increasingly, manufacturing is becoming a data-driven business. Our virtual desktop solution, called WorkSpace, gives your team access from anywhere, at any time, from any device. Let the sales team use a tablet to look up inventory levels while meeting with a client. Monitor production levels from your smartphone while on the road. Empower engineers to jump on a laptop or their home computer to prevent a late-night trip back to the factory.
WorkSpace is available in various "flavors" and can be tailored to the unique needs of your users. There are simple versions, perfect for clerical staff or the factory floor. Office worker versions for managers and accountants. Or, power user versions that are perfect for engineers and graphic designers. Each WorkSpace is customized to the user and runs your software or any of our subscription-based titles like Microsoft Office 365 or Quickbooks.
Epic-Cloud does all of this without compromising on security or the privacy of your data. In fact, we enhance it. With Epic-Cloud, your data resides in the data center behind our enterprise-level firewalls and security. Nothing is stored locally so if a device is lost or stolen, your trade secrets stay just that… secret. We also give you greater control over things like Internet browsing to help ensure your staff stay focused on your mission-critical tasks.
Preserve Capital, Lower Operating Costs
Epic-Cloud eliminates the need for capital investments in rapidly depreciating IT assets and saves on the operating costs of staff required for its maintenance. With traditional on premise solutions, businesses have historically purchased excess capacity in anticipation of future needs. That's not the case with Epic-Cloud where you only pay for what you need today and then scale the solution as you grow.
With Epic-Cloud You Are in Control
One of the pitfalls of cloud-based ERP solutions (where your ERP vendor hosts the software for you), is that you lose control of the application. They can install upgrades and maintenance releases at any time without knowing how it might impact your operations.
With Epic-Cloud, this is your dedicated environment, running your applications and you are in control. We use world-class infrastructure to host your ERP, CRM and accounting platforms and make them sing. You decide when and how to apply patches and upgrades.
Consistent Support For Your Entire IT Environment
Epic-Cloud offers a variety of support relationships. Our standard cloud support makes sure the core platform is healthy, secure, patched and backed up. When it comes to supporting your applications and users, we are happy to supplement your existing IT staff or we can offer a total support solution. In partnership with our parent company, Epic Technologies, we can deliver world-class support via our US-based helpdesk or onsite technicians in your facility anywhere in the continental United States.

Oracle takes aim at other third party support shops
Oracle customers haven't seemed too phased by the $1 billion lawsuit filed by Oracle against SAP's now defunct third-party support subsidiary TomorrowNow.
Last year, analysts predicted that the attention from the lawsuit could actually be a boon to the third-party support market. And just a few months ago, even after SAP closed down TomorrowNow in the midst of "corporate theft" accusations by Oracle, third-party support continues to remain in demand.
So while Oracle customers may not be suspicious of third-party vendors, is a different story emerging for the software giants themselves?
It seems that way. Oracle has now taken legal action against another company — this time it's the Denver-based Spinnaker Management Group, a company that recently hired dozens of former TomorrowNow employees to form its software services business.
According to this MarketWatch article about Oracle's court order, Oracle is "demanding a look at [Spinnaker's] customer contracts, business plans, internal assessments of the 'legality' of TomorrowNow's business model, and documents showing any 'planned support by you of any Oracle customer,'" according to court filings. Spinnaker has contested the request as overly broad.
Oracle has also issued a subpoena on the software services firm CedarCrestone Inc. and demanded to see documentation of the PeopleSoft service provider's business model.
Has Oracle gone too far?
Other software companies probably won't think so, according to analyst Jim Shepherd of AMR Research. Third-party support has long been a "gray area" in the industry, Shepherd said in the MarketWatch story, and "all the software vendors are uncomfortable with this."
The economy may also be making Oracle and other software giants uneasy. As the MarketWatch article points out, support services can be a significant source of revenue in a down economy, when new software sales tend to be down.
Nevertheless, this is one of the "stalls in the market while the dust [around the TomorrowNow] lawsuit settles," that consultant Josh Greenbaum predicted last year. And, while not all third-party support customers are wary, it's important to take precautions. For example, customers should make sure that "any contract they sign states that they are not responsible for misuse of intellectual property by the third-party vendor," according to a research note from Stamford, Conn.-based Gartner Inc.
How (if at all) has the TomorrowNow lawsuit changed your views of the third-party support market?

shivering sunrise, holy moment
wandering venus, waning crescent.
my train window splits the sun into three
and there's silver mist rising from sparkling streams
and the fields are frosted, and glittering,
dawn sky, parts to pearlescence, light's pouring in.
this is omniscient beauty, and with observance, you'll see
how it moves through the morning as it moves through me.
(i think i'm in love with the south coast sea)
