Lexington posted a topic in Ben Kweller ForumI have a live recording of this song stuck on an old IPod from way back in the day, a duet between Ben and Evan Dando, an original the two of them co-wrote in New York pre-Sha Sha. It's so good! A real BK holy grail! Anyone else know it? Ben if you are reading, are you able to share your memories and feelings around this song or about touring with Evan? Was it ever studio recorded? How much would we have to bug you to put it out?
Piano, or Guitar?
Lexington replied to JollyRoget's topic in Ben Kweller ForumAbsolutely loved the piano version of Jealous Girl Ben did at a show sometime before Go Fly A Kite came out, hope it's still online somewhere

The current level cap for Forza Motorsport 4 is set at 150, and while that's insanely high, some players are already capped out. At a Microsoft press briefing, Turn 10's Dan Greenawalt said that they designed the game so that their most dedicated, hardcore fans would would need between 9 and 12 months to reach that limit. It turns out that those people suprised Turn 10 by reaching that limit in only 4 months.
With the upcoming March 6 release of Forza 4's title update #3 the level cap jumps up to 999. That sounds like a crazy number, but Greenawalt says that their goal is to not have a cap at all. He says that a very small percentage of players ever top out, but it's important for them to have that level number as a bragging right.
Greenawalt says that their data shows that the Forza community is playing this game about twice as much as they did with Forza Motorsport 3, so this level bump should keep them busy for a bit longer.

Keynote Speaker, April 12
RON PAUL, M.D., Former Congressman and America's Foremost Advocate for Liberty
TOPIC: Free Market Medical Care and The State
Dr. Paul delivers a candid look at the dysfunctional American political system. Using anecdotes from his 23 years in Congress, he highlights the need for a limited government and more personal liberties. Dr. Paul captures audiences' attention by relating the occurrence of current national issues such as debt, privacy, and freedom to the government's neglect to follow the constitution. His unwavering passion leaves audiences motivated to speak out, wake up, and let politicians know what they want.
Since his retirement from Congress, Dr. Paul has continued to work for limited constitutional government through organizations he founded, including the Foundation for Rational Economics and Education (FREE), Campaign for Liberty, and the Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. In addition, Dr. Paul recently launched The Ron Paul Liberty Report, an online network airing original programming on today's most pertinent issues. Dr. Paul, the author of several best-selling books, most recently released Swords into Plowshares, offering a personal reflection on American's history of war, foreign intervention, and prospects for peace.
While serving in Congress during the late 1970s and early 1980s, Dr. Paul served on the House Banking committee, where he was a strong advocate for sound monetary policy and an outspoken critic of the Federal Reserve's inflationary measures. He also was a key member of the Gold Commission, advocating a return to a gold standard for our currency. He was an unwavering advocate of pro-life and pro-family values. In 1984, he voluntarily relinquished his House seat and returned to his medical practice. He returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th district of Texas, serving on the House Financial Services Committee and the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Dr. Paul, the author of several best-selling books, most recently released The School Revolution: A New Answer for Our Broken Education System, offering a provocative look at how we need to change the way we think about America's dysfunctional education system in order to fix it.
FMMA Co-founder, President & CEO, The Kempton Group
In 1992, Joseph "Jay" Kempton started his journey with The Kempton Group, which was founded in 1969 by his father, Wayne Kempton. Mr. Kempton became the President and CEO in 2003 and has diligently worked with Oklahoma employers to ensure their employee benefits fit the needs of our community. In 2011, Mr. Kempton became aware of the free market medical movement in Oklahoma and what it could mean for healthcare in his community. Based on a true belief in transparency, and a genuine desire to change how employers and participants view and purchase healthcare, Mr. Kempton started the Kempton Premier Provider™ program. By partnering with free market minded providers in Oklahoma, Texas, and surrounding states, Mr. Kempton has helped his self-funded clients save millions of dollars in just a few years. Mr. Kempton is one of the founding members of the Free Market Medical Association, a board member of the Society of Professional Benefit Administrators, and a member of the Health Care Administrators Association. Mr. Kempton has a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Oklahoma State University and is Life, Health, AD&D, and Property and Casualty Insurance licensed in multiple states.
FMMA Co-Founder, Managing Partner, Surgery Center of Oklahoma
Dr. Keith Smith is a board certified anesthesiologist in private practice since 1990. In 1997, he co-founded The Surgery Center of Oklahoma, an outpatient surgery center in Oklahoma City. SCO is owned by over 50 of the top physicians and surgeons in central Oklahoma. Dr. Smith serves as the medical director, CEO and managing partner while maintaining an active anesthesia practice.
In 2009, Dr. Smith launched a website that displays SCO's all-inclusive pricing for various surgical procedures. This move garnered national, and even international, attention. Not only do many uninsured or underinsured American patients take advantage of this cash pricing, but many Canadians have traveled to The Surgery Center to receive care. The free market focus of the Surgery Center, the innovator of this free market model in the U.S., has gained the endorsement of policymakers and legislators. Dr. Smith hopes as many facilities as possible will adopt a transparent pricing model, a move he believes will lower costs for all and improve quality of care. Dr. Smith is the co-founder of the Free Market Medical Association. The association provides a platform where buyers, both individuals and employers, who are seeking high quality, affordable healthcare can find free market minded sellers, both physicians and facilities.
Senior Fellow, Mises Institute & Research Assistant Professor – Free Market Institute at Texas Tech University
TOPIC: Theory and History Agree: Government Intervention in Health Care Reduces Quality and Increases Cost
Murphy first explains the theory by which free-market medicine should provide better quality at lower prices for patients. He critiques the mainstream economist view (derived from Kenneth Arrow) in which "market failure" allegedly keeps markets from working well in healthcare. He uses numerous examples from U.S. history to illustrate the pattern, including the FDA, medical licensing, the tax code, the ACA, and patterns in medical prices for different payment structures.
Robert is a Research Assistant Professor with the Free Market Institute at Texas Tech University.

Founder and CEO of E Powered Benefits
Topic: Healthcare Stole the American Dream, Here's How to Take it Back
Well over 20% of our GDP goes to Healthcare. Based on the current trends, more than half of Millennials' lifetime earnings will go to healthcare. The majority of Opioid addicts started with a legitimate prescription, taken as prescribed, and paid for by an employer sponsored health plan. Doctors are the number one suicide rate of any profession. And the average out-of-pocket is 10X the average savings account. If that doesn't show that healthcare has stolen the American Dream, I don't know what does. Here's why we let this happen… and how to take it back.
Twice named Broker of the Year and one of Forbes' Most Innovative Benefits Leaders, David Contorno's business model has produced average one-year savings of over 40% along with substantially reduced out of pocket costs for employees.
New York Times Bestselling Author and Johns Hopkins Surgeon and Professor of Health Policy
TOPIC: The Price We Pay: Cutting Through the Money Games and Restoring Medicine to Its Mission
Dr. Makary, a surgeon and leading health care expert, reviews the current state of medicine and how to prepare for the future of health care. With regulatory and paperwork burdens crushing doctors, he identifies the disruptors that are saying "no" to the throughput-billing model of practicing medicine and saying "yes" to a more patient-centered, relationship-based model that embraces technology, lifestyle science, and a competitive marketplace designed to bypass the middlemen and put physicians back in the driver's seat. He will also discuss his newest book The Price We Pay and the grassroots effort to reform health care. The movement to restore medicine to its mission, Makary argues, is alive and well–a mission that can rebuild the public trust and save our country from the crushing cost of health care.
Dr. Makary has been elected to the National Academy of Medicine and named one of America's 20 most influential people in health care by Health Leaders Magazine. His book, Unaccountable, was turned into the hit TV medical series "The Resident", and his newest book, The Price We Pay, tells the stories of health care's disruptive innovators and the new movement to restore medicine to its mission.

Dr. Brown & Mr. Brown will host a panel discussion: Pricing Choices Beyond DPC
The DPC movement is great. This 3rd party free practice model is inspiring many physicians across the country. However, DPC is not a good fit for everyone. Physicians and patients still need more choices. We will explore another highly effective pricing and service model that may be more appropriate for some markets, specialties, physicians and patients.
President & Founder, Market Institute
TOPIC: Profit Motives in Healthcare: Why to Leave D.C. Behind And Why Not to Forget About It
The financial dynamics that drive policy creation and cronyism in healthcare are unbeatable with a head-on attack. The only way to win is not to play. Ignoring daily fights that happen on Capitol Hill and focusing on rebuilding the once-free market in healthcare is the only real way to reform the system. But there is never a guarantee Congress will stay out of your way, so we can't forget it exists. We must continue to tell our stories and defend the freedom that does still exist. In the end, we need to recognize Congress won't help, we just need to keep them from hurting us.

Bundles Payment Models in Healthcare: Past, Present & Future
This presentation will describe the market forces encouraging buyers and sellers to create a bundled model, present the considerations for determining the bundled price, and instruct on how to implement bundled pricing into your medical practice.
Medical care provided under free market conditions will certainly provide more services at a lower cost, compared to any non-free market alternatives. But there are deeper and more important ethical considerations at play than utilitarian effects. The essence of medical care—understood in its Hippocratic vision—demands that the decisions made by doctors and by patients be free. Any deliberate outside restriction on the freedom of doctors and patients necessarily corrupts the ethics of the doctor-patient relationship, however well-intentioned they may be. This talk will connect the Hippocratic understanding of medicine and the doctor-patient relationship to the workings of the free market.
Michel Accad, M.D. practices cardiology and internal medicine in San Francisco and holds a faculty appointment at the University of California San Francisco. He regularly publishes articles in peer-reviewed journals of medicine, ethics, and philosophy.

Article Text
The decision of the German regional court in Cologne on 26 June 2012 to prohibit the circumcision of minors is important insofar as it recognises the qualitative similarities between the practice and other prohibited invasive rites, such as female genital cutting. However, recognition of similarity poses serious questions with regard to liberal public policy, specifically with regard to the exceptionalist treatment demanded by certain circumcising groups. In this paper, I seek to advance egalitarian means of dealing with invasive rites which take seriously cultural diversity, minimise harm and place responsibility for the burdens and consequences of beliefs upon those who promote practices.

June 19 (UPI) -- To better track water use by Earth's plants, NASA is preparing to install a new instrument on the International Space Station.
The instrument is called ECOSTRESS, or ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station, and it will measure the changing temperatures of plants on Earth's surface.
To avoid overheating, plants transpire, just as humans sweat. Transpiration is the process of taking up water through the root system and released it through the plant's pores. The process brings down the plant's temperature.
When there is insufficient water, plants close their pores to avoid drying out. But pores are also essential for the plant's uptake of CO2, the process of photosynthesis, which plants use to produce fuel for their cells.
If a plant is exposed to prolonged "water stress," it will eventually starve or overheat, and die.
"When a plant is so stressed that it turns brown, it's often too late for it to recover," Simon Hook, ECOSTRESS principal investigator at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, said in a news release. "But measuring the temperature of the plant lets you see that a plant is stressed before it reaches that point."
Using ECOSTRESS, scientists and agricultural agencies can spot signs of mounting water stress -- the beginning of a drought -- by watching for rising temperatures among crop fields. Recognizing water stress early could allow farmers and others to develop a solution and plan accordingly. Scientists have previously experimented with the use of electric leaf sensors to monitor a plant's water intake.
"ECOSTRESS will allow us to monitor rapid changes in crop stress at the field level, enabling earlier and more accurate estimates of how yields will be impacted," said Martha Anderson, an ECOSTRESS science team member with the U.S. Department of Agriculture. "Even short-term moisture stress, if it occurs during a critical stage of crop growth, can significantly impact productivity."
The new instrument will be carried to the space station by the next resupply mission, scheduled to be launched by SpaceX from Florida's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on June 29.
The instrument will produce high-resolution images of small tracts of farmland at different times of the day. ECOSTRESS will image the same small targets every few days, monitoring changes in temperature.
"As water resources become more critical for our growing population, we need to track precisely how much water our crops need," said Josh Fisher of JPL, lead scientist on the ECOSTRESS project. "We need to know when plants are becoming susceptible to droughts, and we need to know which parts of the ecosystem are more vulnerable because of water stress."
When combined with data collected by NASA's other Earth Observatory satellites, including data related to Earth's water cycles, vegetation changes and precipitation patterns, ECOSTRESS measurements could help scientists better understand how different climate patterns affect regional water stress.
Previous satellite surveys have shown significant shifts in Earth's vegetation over the last few decades.

You might need to save for plenty of reasons, a big family holiday, for a deposit or a new car. The problem is that these large-scale costs can end up breaking the bank if left last minute or if they spring up out of the blue, which is why even if you do not have anything to save for it's still a good idea just to keep you and your family covered.
If you are somebody that is in debt due to credit, then it's a good idea to save a certain amount monthly to ensure that you can be completely paid out of your debts. Fortunately saving up your hard earned cash after payday can be really difficult for some people – including myself. So instead of forking out money into savings accounts each month, then why not try and save money on things from home that you use in order to leave you left over with cash for whatever you need it for. So if you're interested – then keep reading!
Sell Your Clutter
One of the best ways to make a bit of extra cash on the side involves selling old possessions; it also kills two birds in one stone by getting a great deep cleanse of your garage or loft space. Also, you never know whats in your loft, what someone gave you years ago as a gift could now be a highly sought after item worth thousands – so do your research!
Whats, one person's trash, is another's treasure, so it's not a bad thing to sell your clutter, and this doesn't have to be popular items. Things like old childhood games and figurines are so popular online in this day and age as they have been discontinued or are rare so if you aren't someone who hoards possessions ten you could strike a goldmine.
Convert Instead Of Moving
Although this may seem like a strange point, it can help you when moving home in future years. Although home extensions Towcester may seem costly it's a worthwhile investment, by saving up for an extension like this you immediately add on a big chunk of profit onto your existing property while also solving the issue of needing extra space. So when coming to buy your next home in the upcoming years, you have a stronger budget to decide on the perfect property for you and your family.
As well as this converting is easier than moving home, although extending your property can cause a level of disturbance moving home can take months preparation as well as unpacking possessions and making sure your property is in perfect condition.
Consider Pay As You Go
Ask yourself, do you need a mobile contract? A lot of mobile phone companies tie you into 24-month contracts for a set price, when you don't even need all of the stuff they're giving you. So really, you're paying for wasted services, if you're not using up your monthly data allowance and find yourself using the house phone more than your mobile, then it might be time to make a change.
Pay as you go mobiles allow you to simply pay the upfront cost of the mobile, and then top up your phone with credit to make calls, texts or surf the internet whenever you need to.
Make A Shopping List – And Stick To It
It's easy to get deterred from the main task at hand when shopping, you see a huge box of chocolates on offer and the temptation is too great. But you must make sure you stick to your guns, on small snacky items you buy over the course of a few months you waste an unreal amount of money. Supermarkets will continuously put things on offer to make you think you're grabbing a quick bargain, but in all honesty, you aren't saving money you're wasting it on supplies that are not necessary.
So at the beginning of the week or the day before you do the big food shop, devise a list combined with the say from every member of your family. Make set dinners and write down the ingredients on what you need for what dish to avoid buying food that will be wasted or will go out of date before it has the chance to be used.
The idea of the shopping list is to ensure that you stick to all of the essentials and to deter you from making any unnecessary purchases of the things that shops display in your face to tempt you.
Ditch Unused Memberships
As much as you might want to join the gym as your new year's resolution, sometimes there simply isn't enough hours in day after or before work. So if you enrolled, and haven't yet been after a few months then make sure you cancel the membership.
GYm memberships do not keep a record of how much you attend, once you have paid the joining fee they usually suggest setting up a monthly direct debit for the cost to avoid any unpaid costs. This is a good idea, but it's also very easy for this to slip under the radar and become buried under the other incomings and outgoings in your bank account.
Start Saving Today
So now it's time for you to take a stand and save money throughout the year on things you don't even realise cost you money! Stick to these top tips and saving money will become a breeze, builders Buckingham can help you with any decisions on improving or extending your home so for more information then contact them.

"And these are but the outer fringe of His works; how faint the whisper we hear of Him! Who then can understand the thunder of His power?"—Job 26:14
Claiming to completely understand God is a lie. He has revealed what we need to know of Him through His word and has demonstrated Himself and how we are to live through the earthly ministry of Christ—a life of obedience and truth, love, mercy, sacrifice, and healing and deliverance. But we see through a glass darkly and only in heaven in the presence of God will we see Him fully and truly. We and our vision are warped by the filter of our sinful nature in this life, so that He is not fully or clearly perceived. He has shown us what we need, but we must never think we have captured Him, owning Him and keeping Him. He is holy. We are unable to comprehend the vastness even of the works He has performed; how much less can we comprehend the vastness of the Creator Himself. We see dimly and hear faintly only small parts of all He is and has done, and His power surpasses our understanding.
Great are You, Father, and holy, awesome in power and love. Let me not quench Your power within me, but may I be open to Your Spirit's work so You can fully pour Him within me, and through me, without my sinful nature limiting You from what You desire to do. And reveal Yourself to me more and more each day, drawing me nearer to You so I can always know You more truly and more deeply each day than the day before. Although I pray for more contentment and peace daily by Your grace, I pray also for a spirit that yearns for more and more and more of You, expanding my comprehension of greater depths of You. Express Yourself in and through me, Father. Give me a willing and eager spirit, and enable me to be a conduit of Your love through which Your voice is heard and Your power thunders.
He wants you to know Him better: Seek Him. He wants you to be a conduit of His power: Look for opportunities to be such, and be sensitive to His prompting and to the words He wants you to speak and the actions He wants you to take. And obey Him.

The night of April 4, 1999 was oppressive. Sin was in the air and it mixed with the humidity to press down like a weight upon my chest. There was no sleep to be gained that evening. The thudding music from nearby fraternity parties reverberated off the walls. My mind raced as I pondered what must be going on at the bacchanalia outside of my walls. In the darkness, man pursued his selfish lusts and desires and I could only shiver at the thought.
It didn't take long for the oppression to cover me and infiltrate me. The evil around me was no different than that which clung to me. My own life was as dark and unwelcome as the stench from the street. Unforgiveness, pride, desire, greed, "the American dream." All of it replaced the air in my lungs and I wheezed, begging for oxygen to return to my body. And so I lay there in bed, sweating and wondering when the morning would come, but it continued to evade me.
Finally, at 3:30AM I could stand it no longer and took a shower and got dressed. You see, there was more to this night than just the evil laying his iron grip upon the hearts of young college men and women. I got in my car and drove out to Stone Mountain to make a familiar climb. There, in the early morning darkness I ascended to the top and as I cleared the summit, a lone cross shone in the night air, lit up like a Christmas tree. It meant everything to me, almost driving me to my knees. (I wonder if that's how the disciples felt when they saw a cross, but the man wasn't there anymore.) Suddenly, amazingly, the world was left behind at the base of the mountain and NOTHING ELSE MATTERED.
The sun slowly rose and there, a reminder of what has already been done filled the crowd. All of that sin has been crushed, it has no power anymore. I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, we all stood in daylight, none of the night had clung to me. Christ is risen today.
"The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." (John 1:5)
Whew, well it's been some exciting times hasn't it? I've survived another quarter of school and I'm ready to make my assault on the last, the LAST quarter of Georgia Tech. Winter had its lumps, but I'm intact and amazingly enough so are my friends. "Introduction to Computing" sure has gotten a lot harder than I remember it! Nonetheless, my friends made it through okay, even if I did spend many a very late night explaining over and over linked lists and the subtlety of object-oriented programming. You know, the stuff I get paid to do.
However, Winter is busting at the seams with memories. It will be hard to forget that weekend in Chattanooga with my friends. Running around Lookout Mountain, walking with Adriene down the downtown streets to the last formal dance from my fraternity. We truly couldn't have chosen a better location for a last dance, the significance of Chattanooga already stamped on my life. Memories, and more memories from a beautiful town.
Oh yeah, and Adriene survived "Introduction to Computing", too. Lots of late nights poring over a computer. Not exactly the stuff of romances, but I guess that's what love is about.
During the break, I logged another 1500 miles (14 of those on foot through the Appalachian mountains!) A terrific opportunity to re-visit the tropical South of Florida and marvel and amaze at the sights. It's a different world down there and it's hard to believe that I used to run with it not too long ago. A chance to see old friends and see what new things have cropped up in their lives. (Ever notice I have a tendency to write sentences without real verbs?) My good friend Adriene and I re-visited the haunts of days gone by and I got to see everything for the first time through her. The trip was also a chance to go to yet another wedding in beautiful Naples. Seems everyone is getting married these days. Maybe, with a little of God's grace, my number will get called someday, too. I'm starting to get a good idea who I want to stare down that date with, but that date is for another date. Until then, hold on to the slippery grip of youth…
(And to think, I was going to write a long discourse about idols, putting heroes on pedestals, and disappointment. And you thought this was a long-winded affair already. And I think I'll save it for when the sun is at its highest point in the sky.)

Zines are self-published printed works produced by creative people to convey ideas through words and images. Each one is unique in their content, printing, size and assembly, and offer an alternative way for creatives to promote their work. They're also really fun to collect, share, and trade, not to mention a way to contribute to the bigger zine community.
In this class, I will teach the basics of creating and publishing your own promotional zine. I will create a zine simultaneously with you so you will be able to see my process first hand.
What You'll Learn
- Zine History, Inspiration, and Planning. We will learn about zine history, finding inspiration, and how to plan your zine.
- Making and Promoting Your Zine. We will create our zines and promote them.
What You'll Make
In this class, we will create a 12-page zine based on the subject matter of your choice. Below is an example from my very first zine, a tribute to my late Uncle Honesto. This zine was created through hand drawn techniques, put together through Adobe Photoshop and laid out in InDesign:
Who is this class for?
Artists, illustrators, designers, and anyone interested in self-publishing as a means for self-expression and to promote their work.

The Last Little Blue Envelope by Maureen Johnson is the sequel to 13 Little Blue Envelopes. Ginny thinks her adventure in London and Europe is over until she receives a note saying her backpack has been found, and along with it, the final envelope.
Curious, Ginny returns to London to meet the boy with her backpack. Although it includes instructions that will lead Ginny to one more piece of her aunt's artwork, those instructions are held hostage by the boy who found the envelope. In order to complete her aunt's final wishes, Ginny has to trust the boy and take him along on the adventure.
While the story lacks the treasure hunt adventure of the first book, Ginny and her companions make up for anything lacking in the way of plot. The boy who found the envelope, Oliver, to my mind was the most interesting and enigmatic of the ensemble. As he reveals pieces of the final letter, he also gives hints to his own personality and life story.
Although the journey set forth by Ginny's aunt is complete at the end of The Last Little Blue Envelope, there's more here that I'd like to explore. I think Oliver could stand alone as a character. He has more stories to tell.

I still need to read this last one to complete the series. Nice to know the series can go further still.
Comment #2: Saturday, May 04, 2013 at 18:55:52
Maureen Johnson so far seems to write two book series, so The Last Little Blue Envelope is most likely the last bok with these characters. But yes, it's nice that she's left things with enough what-ifs to imagine how things might play out.

Mumbai, Jun 6 (PTI) Information and Broadcasting Minister Venkaiah Naidu today said the government is amenable to a majority of Shyam Benegal committees recommendations and will amend the Cinematograph Act soon.
The government is "in agreement with most of the recommendations of the report and all efforts" would be made by the ministry to "facilitate the amendments", an official statement said quoting Naidu.
The statement, which came after the last leg of consultation with stake-holders on Cinematograph Act here, added, "the amendments would be in tune with technical and other realities of film production and modern times".
The Benegal panel was constituted after repeated controversies after the appointment of Pahlaj Nihlani as the CBFC chief by the NDA Government.
The Pahlaj Nihalani-led CBFC has been mired in controversies for cuts issued in films, with filmmakers demanding changes in the way films are certified.
The committee submitted its report in April last year to amend certain sections of the 1952 law.
"The participants were of the opinion that the government should implement the new recommendations of the committee of experts chaired by Shyam Benegal at the earliest," the statement said.
The consultation was also attended by Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, Secretary of Ministry of Information and Broadcasting Ajay Mittal, eminent captains of film industry, representatives of Film Producers Guild, senior government officials and other stake-holders.
The film industry also brought up the issue of higher GST of 28 per cent for the sector, but Naidu said that the GST Council has taken this decision and assured to present their case before the council.
On the demand of increasing the number of screens, Naidu said state governments need to ensure single-window clearances and weed out unnecessary rules to simplify the process.
"A simpler and easy process of licensing would encourage not only more people to invest in the sector but would also incentivise many to upgrade the existing old screens to modern new screens and create better viewing experiences for all, which in turn would bring more people to halls and boost revenue," the statement said.
The minister said his ministry has finalised plans of setting up a national centre of excellence in animation, visual effects, gaming and comics at Film City in the financial capital.
The centre will be built on a 25-acre land parcel given by the Maharashtra government to the National Building Construction Company. It will have capacity to accommodate 1,480 students at a time and 60 per cent of them will be at the under graduate level.
The Centre is also setting up a national museum of Indian cinema in the city and it will be inaugurated in July, he said.
Film industrys demand for more screens was also discussed during a meeting today, Naidu said, adding that there are many impediments on the issue including urban development policies.
He said the films have international potential and are the most potent medium of spreading Indias culture globally. PTI AA NSK

text: Hello, I trying to write my first non trivial Erlang/OTP application and looking for the best approach for organizing and managing dependencies during development. So far there has been a single dependency for the project which is the exmpp library[1]. Upon installing exmpp, it copied compiled code to the search path (/usr/lib/erlang/lib/) so I did not have to care while using it in my code. But now I need to use erlang-mysql-driver[2] too and it doesn't come with an installation script like exmpp that would copy compiled files to the search path. Presently I can think of following ways to fix this: 1. Add hard coded paths of src & include dirs of the libraries in my Emakefile (disadvantage: wouldn't work on other machines) 2. Compile the code from the libraries and copy the beam files over to the ebin dir of my project. I need to do this only once as I don't plan to change their code. 3. Add search paths to the command every time while starting the shell. Does rebar handle this and should I be using it instead of the Emakefile? Sorry if my questions are not clear, I am really confused about this :-) [1] https://github.com/processone/exmpp [2] https://github.com/dizzyd/erlang-mysql-driver Thanks, Vineet -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

"Milk Is For All"
As a complete food, milk is the sole food for infants and an important source of nutrients for children. However, when we hit adulthood, milk is often left out in our daily meals. More often then not, milk becomes an add-on to more adult beverages like tea or coffee. Contrary to what most people think, the fact is milk can play a role in contributing to your nutritional well-being, no matter how old you are and what lifestyle you subscribe to. To assume our bodies only required milk at the growing stages is wrong and this is a perception that needs to be addressed.
For Kids – Early childhood is a tremendous growth period across all areas of development. During this time, the body undergoes changes, both physically and mentally, Typically, the average child's height doubles, and quadruplets in weight. To promote, encourage and sustain the growth, as well as to keep illnesses at bay, a growing child will required to be provided with all the essential nutrients.
Beyond just building a healthy body, it is also every parent's concern whether their children are getting the right amount of nutrients to develop a healthy mind. Milk is an essential food source for toddlers, and young children, as it provides energy and nutrients for growth and brain development. Drinking milk at an early age also helps cultivate healthy habits as he or she will be more likely to continue drinking milk as teen and an adult.
For Teens – Boys and girls in this age group have high calcium needs that they cannot make up for later years in life. Calcium is a mineral that gives strength to our bones. It is also necessary for many of our body's functions, including nerve, muscle and hormonal function. Unfortunately, peer pressure, the need to fit in and be popular amongst their peers often makes it 'uncool' to be seen sipping on a pack of milk.
During the teenage years, particularly from ages 11 to 15, your child's bones are developing quickly and are storing calcium. Nearly half of all bones are formed during these years. It is therefore important that your teen gets plenty of calcium in his or her diet to prevent brittle bones later in life. Children and teenagers between the ages of 10 and 18 should aim for 1,000 milligrams per day, which is about 3 servings of goat milk or other high-calcium food. This amount is almost twice as much as the amount required by younger children.
For Adults – In our adult years, calcium and dairy products play major roles in bone maintenance and may help with the prevention of chronic diseases. According to an extensive five year study on over 1,500 young adults, researchers reported that the subjects actually reduced their intake of calcium and dairy products as they enter their twenties. Since peak bone mass is not achieved until the third decade of life, it is crucial that young adults continue to consume adequate amounts of calcium, protein and vitamin D found in dairy products to support health and prevent osteoporosis later in life.
For individuals with a hectic lifestyle and irregular meals, goat milk can be a good supplement for sustenance. The fact is milk is a wholesome food, providing energy and all the essential nutrients. After a tiresome and exhausting day at work, drinking a warm glass of goat milk before sleep can help you relax and soothe your nerves.

The Bahamas National Culinary Team sizzled at this year's Taste of the Caribbean held in Miami, Florida June 22-26, walking away with three gold medals including Chef of the Year, Junior Chef of the Year and Team of the Year.
The Taste of the Caribbean is the premier culinary showdown between Caribbean to determine which country has the best Caribbean cuisine.
The competition had 15 countries participating this year including Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bonaire, Cayman Islands, Curacao, Jamaica, St. Lucia, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago and Turks and Caicos.
The Bahamas also won a bronze medal in the seafood competition, a silver medal in the beef competition, and a silver in the Pastry Chef of The Year competition.
On the team this year are chefs Kevyn Pratt, Tamar Rahming, Jeaneka Russell, Derrick Blackmon, Carvison Pratt, Hazen Rolle, Celeste Smith, Jamal Small, Deneisha Knowles and Owen Bain.
This is the second consecutive year that The Bahamas has won Junior Chef of the Year. Hazen Rolle, a student of the University of The Bahamas, took home the title. Additionally, he won a $1,000 scholarship. His dish, dubbed "A Taste of Bahamian Culture," also won the Most Innovative Dish of the competition.
Rolle wowed the judges with a duo of pan-seared Certified Angus Beef tri tipped with seagrape essence and coconut curry shrimp, tropical fruit salsa, plantain mash, spiced carrot puree, glazed turned carrots, sautéed cabbage and okra and plantain chips.
"I'm just happy to be here and I want to give thanks to God. My team captain Chef Devin Johnson was my backbone in the competition. I gave it my all and I said my prayers," said Rolle.
"I learned so much just from being here and being on the team."
Chef Jamal Small was the overall winner for Chef of the Year.
Small, who is attached to the Ocean Club, prepared 'Your Typical Bahamian Sunday Dinner' which included a Down Home Roasted Snapper with steamed gravy emulsion, guava BBQ Certified Angus Beef, Backyard Pigeon Peas and Grits, warm cabbage slaw and plantain textures.
Because of his victory, Chef Small will return to Taste of the Caribbean as a judge for the competition.
It's something he's always wanted, he said.
"I'm excited because it's been seven years, since I've been fighting for this," Small said. "Last year, I took a break and this year I said I was coming back for this and I got it. It's awesome. I always wanted to be a judge. In 2015, I told the team that I was going to come back as a judge and this year I will be doing it."
While The Bahamas was edged out by Trinidad and Tobago for Overall Team of the Year, Team Captain Owen Bain said he felt that the team performed exceptionally well.
"I'm extremely elated. It's been a long time coming and we have been training really hard. We have been pushing hard and pushing forward and the medals today show our hard work," he said.
"We are going back in the kitchen to train more. Some of the things that we know we did we could improve upon and we want to continue to press the envelope to create better cuisine."
The Bahamas Hotel and Tourism Association (BHTA) is responsible for crafting the team.
President of the BHTA Carlton Russell said the association takes pride in bringing together the culinary ambassadors.
"Culinary Tourism is very important and cultural tourism is on the rise. I think our chefs are very creative and innovative with local ingredients that we have and we need to bring that to the forefront," he said.
The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism and Aviation is a major sponsor of The Bahamas National Culinary Team.
Culinary Manager DeAnne Gibson said the competition helps to put the spotlight on Bahamian cuisine.
"We are very pleased at our performance," she said. "It shows that the level of our culinary skills are very high and we are keeping up with our trends. The Bahamas is a team to be reckoned with and we are happy that we did very well overall."
Director General of Tourism Joy Jibrilu also sent congratulations to the team.
"We are extending our congratulations to the Bahamas Culinary Team and the BHTA for a job well done at this year's Taste of the Caribbean. Our National Culinary Team makes us proud each year, as they take their skills to new heights and set the bar for the quality of signature cuisine in The Islands Of The Bahamas," she said.

On NEW (blank page), a page number appears. How to delete it? Somehow I managed to insert a page number (19) on the template for a new blank page in MS Word 2010. Even when I select New to start a new page and delete the page numer, the cursor shows that the page number, starting with 19 is still on the bottom of the page. How do I delete this and restore the defaul macro for a new blank page?
This may help: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/w...
I think the problem is related to the template that Word opens with. I haven't got Word 2010 so I cannot say for certain but try doing a search for the 'normal.dot', 'normal.dotx' or 'normal.dotm' files and rename whichever you find (don't delete them, just in case this doesn't work :-) ). When you restart Word it should recreate the normal.dot and you won't have the page numbers.

What's In Your 2014 Time Capsule?
It's almost impossible to predict the future in the digital age. It seems like every day brings a new app, social network or tech product that changes our lives in a significant way. But that doesn't stop us from speculating about what's next.
New York Times bestselling author Chang-rae Lee crafts his own vision of the future in his dystopian novel On Such a Full Sea. We are reading On Such a Full Sea this month in Mashable's social book club MashableReads. As we read the book, it's made us think: if society were to drastically change in the future, what things from now would we miss the most?
See also: 9 Top Tech Breakthroughs of 2013
Throughout the book, readers follow Fan, a young girl who adventures through a future version of America. Though the setting builds upon the present, Fan's world could not be more different from our own. In the book, America functions as a safe haven for refugees who have escaped from environmentally ruined cities in China. Society is so stratified by class that most people live in abandoned neighborhoods used as labor settlements to grow food for the elite.
To help preserve the present, we want to know what you would put in your 2014 time capsule. Show us on Instagram what you would save for the future for a chance to be featured on Mashable. It can be anything from your smartphone to your favorite food. Don't forget to tag your photos with the hashtag #MashReads.

We're way past the point of cryptic tweets and anonymous message board posts.
It's press release official.
Janet Jackson is planning a major comeback for 2015, and we finally have the very first press release from the campaign.
On Wednesday (June 3), the pop titan's official website announced that Miss Jackson (if you're nasty) will drop her first new album in seven years this fall via BMG through her own Rhythm Nation records. While there's no title or further details regarding the LP yet, it's noteworthy to mention that this will also be her first release under her own newly formed Rhythm Nation record label, which is history in itself. According to the release, Janet becomes "arguably the first female African-American recording artist to form her own record label."
BMG CEO Hartwig Masuch also chimed in on the JJ lovefest in a statement, sharing his excitement to working with the icon on her upcoming project.
Janet is not just a supreme artist, she is a unique cultural force whose work resonates around the world. It is an honor that she has chosen BMG to release her long-awaited new album. We look forward to collaborating with her across every platform."
This is just the latest update from Janet Jackson, which already includes a 2015 tour and a brand-new single that's reportedly going to drop in the coming weeks. Bring it on, baby!

Motorway, not a runway
"IT'S a motorway, not a runway," said Judge Tony Hunt at last week's Circuit Court, chiding a Cork man for speeding at 180km/h in a 120km zone.
Donal Lordan, Ballinspittle, Kinsale, Cork, committed the offence at the M8 Motorway, Springfield, Ballacolla, on November 21, 2011. He was charged with careless driving and disqualified at a previous sitting of the District Court.
Appealing the decision last week, defence, Ms Geraldine Fitzpatrick explained that her client had been travelling to Meath with three others on the day and had been "making up time on the motorway".
"Well, the answer to that is, you leave on time," retorted Judge Hunt, who said it was "downright dangerous" to be travelling at that speed.
Ms Fitzpatrick admitted that Lordan deserved to lose out, but she said that he had pulled in immediately when gardaí flashed their lights.
"Not immediately, he had to slow down from that considerable speed," remarked the judge.
Ms Fitzpatrick said Lordan had been surprised at how fast he had been going and she pointed out he has no previous convictions after driving for 35 years.
"It was an aberration, a once off," she said.
"It's not an aberration," replied Judge Hunt, "there are idiots going by you on the motorway at outrageous speed all the time."
Ms Fitzpatrick said that a disqualification could have a knock-on effect on Lordan's life and she remarked that her client had only been fined €200, when the law allows for a maximum fine of €5,000. She said that Judge Hunt could therefore mark the seriousness of the offence without a disqualification.
"This is a nonsensical speed," declared the judge. "If you're travelling any faster (than 120km) you're presenting a danger to yourself and others. If he requires his licence for economic purposes, then the penalty must fit."
As Lordan had shown "a distinct lack of care for the safety of others", Judge Hunt said that a substantial financial penalty was needed. The judge lifted the driving disqualification, but he increased the fine to €2,500.
"People can not be allowed to travel at this speed," he said.

I was trolling around Craftzine and I came across the most awesome of projects.
Going To Grandma's Laptop Case
This project was designed by Jennifer Perkins who owns Naughty Secretary Club which specializes in beautifully funky jewelry with a vintage flair. I absolutely love her laptop case design because it is so effortlessly retro-chic and is a great way to carry your laptop without looking like youre carrying your laptop (great for thwarting would be thieves). The step by step instructions show how easy it is to create this unique case, really the hardest part would be finding the suitcase although most thrift stores will have some nice moderate sized ones.
So click here to get started on your own vintage laptop case!

In 2017, some 2.3 billion account credentials were stolen because of 51 independent credential spill incidents, according to Shape Security's second annual Credential Spill Report. The main industries affected were consumer banking, retail, airline, and hospitality, which were primarily attacked via credential stuffing and account takeovers, according to Shape Security's press release.
Credentials are often spilled through data breaches or personal attacks on users, in which cybercriminals obtain the credentials and use them on a wide array of websites and mobile apps, explained the press release.
Read more about the findings of the new report by Shape Security, which reveals the severity of data breaches and offers insight to the lifespan of stolen information, on TechRepublic.
Want to stop credentials from being stolen from your organization? It is hard. But you can learn lessons from experienced professionals who have made it much harder on bad guys. Start with a quick review of these Cybersecurity Best Practices from Crucial Point.

Heartland offers rebates for the purchase and installation of electric water heaters, air source heat pumps, and ground source heat pumps. From time-to-time, Heartland adjusts the rebate efficiency qualifications in order to complement changes in efficiency standards established by the federal government or by Energy Star.
Effective April 16, 2015, the U.S. Department of Energy issued a new rule which increased the efficiency ratings for all types of water heaters; electric, natural gas, and propane. The efficiency rating for electric water heaters has been set at such an efficient level that Heartland will no longer require a minimum efficiency, or EF rating, to qualify for a rebate.
Therefore, all electric water heaters installed after April 16, 2016 shall not be required to have a minimum EF rating in order to be eligible for a rebate. The rebate amount shall remain the same, which is $200 for a limited warranty electric water heater and $300 for a lifetime warranty electric water heater. On-demand (tankless) water heaters will continue to not be eligible for a rebate.
In addition, effective September 15, 2015, Energy Star increased the efficiency standard (SEER) for air source heat pumps. Energy Star is a joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. To reflect the change in efficiency standards, effective April 16, 2016, Heartland will require air source heat pumps to be Energy Star certified and have a minimum SEER of 14.5 in order to receive a rebate in the amount of $150 per ton. Air source heat pumps with a SEER of 16 will receive a rebate in the amount of $200 per ton, and air source heat pumps with a SEER of 17 or greater will receive a rebate in the amount of $250 per ton.
If you have any questions about the changes, please give us a call at 1-800-835-9586.
Air & Ground Source Heat Pumps
Air and ground source heat pumps are the most efficient use for electricity to heat and cool your home today. As a benefit of membership, Heartland REC offers rebates for the purchase and installation of air and ground source heat pumps.
Heat Pumps Rebate
Air Source Heat Pumps must be a minimum size of two tons and meet or exceed current Energy Star Standards. Rebate amounts for air-source heat pumps are :
$150 per ton for a 14.5 SEER
$200 per ton for a 16 SEER
$250 per ton for a 17 SEER
Ground source heat pumps must be at least two tons and meet or exceed current Energy Star Standards. Heartland REC rebate amounts for ground-source heat pumps are $150 per 1/2 ton.
Electric Water Heaters
All electric storage water heaters installed after April 16, 2016 will qualify for a rebate.
Electric Water Heater Rebates
Since no flue is required and there is no constant flame, electric water heaters offer a simple, safe and efficient solution to heat water. With an electric water heater rebate from Heartland REC, they are an affordable solution.
Rebate amount for all non-lifetime electric water heaters is $200
Rebate amount for all lifetime electric water heaters is $300

When last we heard from the Houston Aeros, they were a beat-up, short-handed squad struggling to score goals, win games, and send a complete roster of skaters onto the ice.
Things change in a week.
The Aeros spent the Thanksgiving holiday flitting about between Canada and New York, and despite the numerous border crossings, bus rides, and plane trips, the Aeros were able to squeak out two wins in three games while earning five out of a possible six points on the road trip.
And while the Aeros suffered some more injuries on the trip -- including an injury to defenseman Max Noreau in the first game of the trip that appeared to be serious enough to make him miss the rest of the games, but which ended up being not as serious as thought -- they still found a way to prosper.
The Aeros started things the right way by defeating the Hamilton Bulldogs last Wednesday night in the only way the Aeros know how to win a game, 1-0. Anton Khudobin, as has become his wont, was stellar between the pipes. He made 26 saves which was a must as, for the 14th time this season, the Aeros were held to less than three goals.
But when the play of the goalie is stellar, a team doesn't need to score many goals.
Which is probably why the Aeros lost to the Syracuse Crunch on Friday night.
It wasn't a bad night for Khudobin as he allowed only three goals. The bad news was that the Aeros needed him to keep the Crunch to the same total of goals as he kept Hamilton as the Aeros were only able to score three goals. Khudobin kept the game scoreless in overtime, but was beat in the shootout as the Crunch got the 4-3 win.
Playing the next afternoon in Toronto, Khudobin's backup, Wade Dubielewicz got the start, and he earned the win as the Aeros defeated the Marlies 2-1 in overtime. This had to be a bit of a bittersweet win for Dubielewicz. He got the win, but he had gone from, before the start of season, to competing for the backup job in Minnesota to being the backup to the guy, Khudobin, who was supposed to be playing in the lower level ECHL. And when he has played for the Aeros this year, he has been hit with bad luck -- in one game, the puck hit high off of the glass behind the net, bounced back toward the net, hit him in the back, and went into the net for a goal.
"He gave up a goal, but he was really solid," Aeros coach Kevin Constantine told The Third Intermission blog about Dubielewicz's win. "That is what we needed. He has played really well this year, but we just have not been able to get a win for him. So I am sure just getting a win feels great for him personally."
So thanks to Khudobin and Dubielewicz, the Aeros survived the Thanksgiving road trip, and they survived in grand style.
The team sits in second place of the West Division with a record of 12-10-1-1 (26 points). And they were even able to gain some ground on the first place Texas Stars.

Even better, despite the possible injury to Noreau, the Aeros got healthier as the Wild have now returned most of the players they borrowed from the team over the past several weeks (Danny Irmen, Nathan Smith, and Robbie Earl are back with the team). And they return home for a December schedule that sees them playing eight of 12 games inside the friendly confines of Toyota Center.
That December schedule starts today as the Aeros take on their cross-state rivals, the San Antonio Rampage, in an 11:05 matinee match-up. The Rampage, which earlier in the season looked to be one of the top teams in the division, are now a team in turmoil that has seen one NHL club, the Anaheim Ducks, end their affiliation with the Rampage and pull their players out of San Antonio, has seen the firing of their coach, and has seen the club go 1-8-0-1 in their last 10 games while sinking to the bottom of the standings.
And it gets better as the Aeros will be facing the Rampage a total of four times this month.
Of course, this is the Houston Aeros, and the Houston Aeros don't do things the easy way, like beating the teams their supposed to easily defeat. There's bound to be an injury or two or three, and the Minnesota Wild are duty bound to take several of the Aeros players just as they start to get hot. But then again, that's life in the American Hockey League.
