Criss Angel is awesome! His illusions and tricks are very entertaining. The show seems to have a bit of a Gothic feel to it. Either way, I'd choose him over David Blaine any day!

Not worth the time, if he would claim he stuff is done by "Magic" or with tricks then it would be ok, but to claim you are doing stunts that can be done and then not really doing them is a waste of time.

Niggling flaws aside, this is one show I can't stop watching
PenaltyShot | CA | 07/09/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Criss Angel is one of the most mind-boggingly interesting magicians that has ever been. His show is definitely worth watching. The vast majority of his illusions are simply amazing and inexplicable.
With that said, however, I do have some pros and cons to list.
1. Amazing illusions that defy explanation.
2. No stuffy, old-school, big-production-number-on-a-stage magic acts of the David Copperfield variety. Criss does nearly everything as street magic.
3. He has more personality and warmth than David Blaine. (Of course, that's not saying a whole lot.)
1. The show has an annoying tendency to show you clips of the finales of the best stunts of the show, before the show even gets going. I don't want to see that. I want to be surprised. Don't give me a detailed run-down of what you're going to do and even show me short clips of what you're going to do. It ruins part of the mystery. Just get the show started and do it.
2. Criss talks in a monotone drone, like he's perpetually on quaaludes.
3. I could do without his family members. They each have their own (obviously fake) "jobs" to do on the show.
His brother JD's job is to pace around and act all nervous about everything Criss attempts, and to say things afterward like, "I'm telling YOU, that he will NOT be doing something like THAT again. No way."
His other brother Costa's job is to give vague praise every step of the way. "Lookin' good; don't look down; you got it!"
His Mom's job is to freak out and scream in horror at everything Criss attempts. I always think it is interesting, in an annoying sort of way, to watch her thrashing around in horror, and then see that all of the people standing around her have decidedly different expressions on their faces. Of course they do...because they know it's just a show. And Criss's mom obviously does too. But her job is to freak out and act like Criss is in mortal danger.
4. During the large illusions, there are too many cut-scenes away from the illusion and onto some member of his entourage spewing some vague banalities about the stunt, or about how "deep" Criss is, or some other blather. Example: Banachek saying things like, "I think people would be very surprised to find that what they think is illusion, is not illusion -- and what they think is not illusion, is illusion." Or the big-eared dude (forgot his name) saying equally vapid things that have no real substance. Or even to Criss himself saying, "With me, what you see is what you get." OK, OK, yes, we know that already, you've told us a bunch of times. So on with the illusion, OK? One continuous shot, OK? Also, most of the illusions are shown with different camera angles. Every cut away from the action or even to a different camera angle means an edit of the show, in which ANYTHING could have happened between one cut and the next. It's the equivalent of saying, "OK, turn your back for a second...OK now you can look again." It serves to cast doubt on EVERY trick that Criss does.
5. A lot of the people that Criss picks to perform in front of are idiots. David Blaine suffers from this more than Criss does -- "Hey, here's a tattooed low-life with an IQ of 70. He'd be a good subject to perform for!" -- but Criss also tends to have people that are no brain surgeons, or even reasonably intelligent professional types. Instead, he gets people that either (a) say Oh My God a million times, (b) say four-letter words a million times, which results in a ton of bleep-outs, or (c) run away. I can never understand the last reaction, running away. I mean, Huh?!? I'd be examining that as closely as possible, asking questions along the way and looking at it with an analytical eye. But instead, you get people that, when presented with an amazing illusion, RUN AWAY. Some of the mental midgets that David Blaine performed for also showed much the same reaction. (See Deion Sanders' reaction after Blaine levitated in front of him.) What the heck is up with that?
6. There are obviously "plants" in the audience. One of the most obvious examples was in one of the later Mindfreak shows, where he finds a couple in the Aladdin hotel hallway and asks them if they've ever experienced Deja Vu. Then another couple (a too-plastic-looking couple) steps in from behind and acts like they're just another couple at the Aladdin also. Criss says he wants to show these people something, and starts walking down the hallway a bit. The first couple follows him, but the second couple stays put, perfectly posed in the center of the hallway, even before Criss tells them to stay there. Then he tells them that they will experience Deja Vu, and he blocks the camera for a split second. Freeze-frame that split second. You will see the girl in the second couple move a little bit too soon. Obviously these people both have twins, and while the couple quickly darts into hotel rooms on either side of the hallway, their "twin" couple comes out of rooms at the far end of the hall, to make it look like Criss has just "reversed time" and thrown the couple down to the end of the hallway.
It's the kind of thing that makes me skeptical of EVERY so-called "audience" member in any of Criss's stunts. I suspect that Criss has TONS of plants in the audience -- at least one with just about every illusion he does -- and that really lessens the impact of his tricks for me. For another example: Take the girl that he "just happens to meet" in a parking lot in one episode. He asks her to draw "any animal" on a piece of paper, and then fold it up. She draws a butterfly. Criss unfolds the paper, and a real butterfly flies out and the drawing is now blank. Well, great...but what if the girl had drawn an elephant, or a rhino, or an armadillo, or cassowary or something? But nope, she conveniently draws a butterfly, and Criss just happens to have a live butterfly under his sleeve to produce. The girl was obviously a plant.
7. A bunch of the random people that "just happen to be there" when Criss shows up to perform something for them, curiously also just happen to have Mindfreak shirts or logos on their clothing. Like random people just go around wearing Mindfreak gear all the time. Right.
8. The Mindfreak theme song. Annoying noise.
Seems like a lot more cons than pros, right? But still, I watch the show because the pros carry a lot more weight than the cons. It is simply a very entertaining show to watch. Worth the purchase if you can put up with some of the cons."
FOREFRONT of the MAGIC WORLD
Chris Kennison | Jefferson City, Mo United States | 12/28/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"David Blaine and Criss Angel are the forefront of magic in the new century. Why? Gone are the parlor tricks we've become so accustom to, and now we have magic that will make watch in wonder... how did they do that? Tricks on the street, with common observers. Tricks that not only take illusion, slight of hand and craftsmanship, but also take MENTAL TOUGHNESS and PREPAREDNESS.
Some of the more dazzling things that Criss Angel does in season one will leave you awe-struck. Like when he walks DOWN THE SIDE OF A VEGAS BUILDING... or WALKS THROUGH A GLASS WINDOW. Even the little things... like levitating a frisbee that had landed on the ground, spinning it up to eye level and throwing it to an observer without ever toughing it. Or don't let me forget when he walks up to some random people in a park, puts a young girl into a trace, bends her BACKWARD at a 90 degree angle and then LEVITATES HER ENTIRELY.
Of course there's the time when he levitates HIMSELF. I'm not talking a few inches off the ground like David Blaine did previously. I'm talking feet. Three feet. Four Feet. High enough to lift himself over a good sized dog. Not taking anything away from the equally incredibly David Blaine, but a nearby observer spoke the SAYS IT ALL COMMENT, "Blaine needs to kiss this guys ass."
I don't know about that... Criss still hasn't done anything close to the most amazing trick that David Blaine did. Removing a wrist watch from a woman... walking a few feet down the street to a jewelry store where the woman's watch was displayed in the window... and being after hours, the store was closed, so he put his hand and arm through the glass right before our eyes and retrieves the watch. Or creating water, wearing a sleeveless shirt with a single leaf for a jungle tribe that had no running water.
Okay, okay... back to Criss Angel. The show is incredible. I watch it religiously. One of the things I find enduring about the show is the fact that Criss' brothers are part of his crew and it's kinda cool to see them worry about him when he does his tricks... even though... sometimes it looks sorta staged.
Also, the fact that he includes other magicians in his show, like Lance Burton, Penn & Teller & the Amazing Johnathan. I'm just waiting for the 2 part episode where him and David Blaine team up... dear lord... wouldn't that be great!
If anybody out there is complaining about Criss Angel and the validitiy of his tricks... I'd like to see the magicians that they're watching because I can't imagine that magic could get much better."
A Review of the DVD Set... Not the Celebrity
R. Saylor | Los Angeles | 01/23/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)
"OK. Here is, what may be, the only true review of the DVD set released by A&E Entertainment, and not a debate over who is your favorite Magician. This collection will be enjoyable to any Criss Angel fan or Magic enthusiast, so get it and grab the popcorn. But first, there are a couple of things you need to know. It is amazing that the Title is, "The Complete Season One", considering that 4 episodes are missing from the set. (1) The "Bullet Catch" episode that was ready for broadcast but banned by the network and never aired, (2) the one-hour 10/31 "Halloween" episode, (3) "The Best of Criss Angel" with scenes edited out from previous episodes, and (4) "The Best of Criss Angel Vol.II". I am happy that A&E released the collection, and would be glad if they released more of their programming on DVD, but remain dumb-founded that they would forget 4 episodes and then title the collection what they did."

Higher kinds are also used to model functions that require for a datatype to implement a typeclass. This way you can create functions that abstract behavior (defined by a typeclass) and allow callers to define which datatype they'd like to apply it to.
Let's use the typeclass

Once we have this typeclass behavior define we can now write a function that's parametrized for any

Passing the instance in every function call seems like a burden. So, because

We've watched carefully over the last two weeks as the hype has built for Rane DJ's return. Today, they're officially announcing two products. Twelve is a turntable-sized, motorized MIDI controller, while the Seventy-Two is a battle mixer with a clear goal: winning the throne back from the DJM-S9. Keep reading for all the first details.
What happens when you take a decades-old DJ hardware company and sell it to InMusic? We've seen already their angle of attack with Denon DJ, and the Rane approach seems similar: put out products that are highly competitive to the market leader and strive to offer something unique at the same time.put out products that are highly competitive strive to offer something unique
Today's two new Rane DJ product announcements tick off these two boxes:
Rane DJ is coming out swinging with a product unlike any they've made before: a MIDI controller that's emulating a complete turntable tactile experience. Motorized controllers and vinyl-emulation we've seen before (famously in the fundamentally flawed Technics SL-DZ1200 ) – but this is a new level of design.
You can't play any media on this deck standalone – it's a MIDI controller in every sense. Instead of a tonearm, there's a strip search control. It's the exact size of a DJ turntable with a 12″ vinyl platter – and has a single USB out for connecting to a computer (or the back of the Seventy Two). Here's the rest of the features from the Rane press release:
The press release also notes that the Twelve is Serato DJ OSA READY (means that it will be pre-mapped in a new update to Serato DJ. There's no support for Traktor at launch – and InMusic indicated to us that it would be up to NI to make that happen if they wanted it.Manufacturer: Rane DJ
We've already written quite a bit about the Seventy-Two when it was first introduced
Clarks Womens Black Leather Pure Blush Mules JUesE
Suffice to say the official reveal continues to impress. There's a classic Rane focus on build-quality (something that they'll likely tout over Pioneer DJ's DJM-S9, which is comparatively very plastic). Rane DJ apparently already had this design in their labs when InMusic took over – and it shows.
There's new fader technology in here – much of which is adjustable form inside of the touchscreen thanks to new magnets in the faders themselves.

Changeling: The Dreaming, the precious and most questionable of White Wolf's major World of Darkness titles, is a role playing game based on the notebook doodles of a high school goth girl. Not the cool goth girl either, the one with the striped socks who spent every math class eating her own hair. The concept is simple: fairies are real. Some are sort of good, some are really bad and they inhabit a shrinking magical realm (one of many in World of Darkness) encroached upon by the real world of modern humanity. And there's lots of trauma. It's Captain Planet meets the Lovely Bones in a magical wonderland of rape allegories and hookah-smoking steampunk cat men.
Steve: I know you're gonna trash this, because, that's like what you do, but I am going to stand firm. Changeling rocks hard. It's built on fairy tales and those are like the foundation blocks of all of role playing. Heck, everybody loves fairy tales.Zack: Like everything related to fairy tales to appear in the 1990s, Changeling has a veneer of hipster irreverence and plenty of "twiztid" imagery, like bloodthirsty fairies and sexual menace.
Steve: Which is awesome.
Zack: And like everything related to World of Darkness you have a group of super powerful creatures that are existentially threatened by toasters and security cameras and fluoride in the water.
Steve: They also might be threatened by evil demons and global conspiracies, but yeah, basically right. Still awesome.Zack: And in Changeling you get to play a mopy fairy that inhabits a realm related to emotional trauma.
Steve: It explores pathos, but it has a lighter side than most of those gloomy World of Darkness games. You fight boring by being awesome dream weavers.
Zack: Yeah, real awesome. You can play a Keebler Elf packing the E.L. Fudge with all your emotional baggage about being molested. Sure beats playing a vampire that can make people's blood explode.
Welcome to the world of working endlessly to please an audience specifically downloading your show to find mistakes.
If you're feeling overwhelmed by dire climate change news, try taking action personally! You can make a difference in the world!
Better than expected, and absolute garbage
The Spiritual Successor to Demolition Man! Wait, did we say successor? We meant shameless ripoff.

Planning reforms deliver home improvements boost
There has been a rise in the number of people making home improvements following the introduction of new planning freedoms, the government has announced.According to the latest figures, in the three months to June councils across the country received 7,700 applications for home extensions - 6,500 of which got the go-ahead without needing to go through the whole planning process.People have had more freedom to extend their homes without needing to apply for planning permission since permitted development rights were introduced last year.They were brought in by the government to help create a swift and responsive planning system as part of its long-term economic plan.Permitted development measures are also helping to transform redundant office buildings into new homes. Some 1,900 applications were received by councils in the last quarter and 900 were approved during the same period.Housing minister Brandon Lewis said: "[These] figures show how thousands of homeowners are now able to make improvements to their properties without having to negotiate excessive red tape and bureaucracy. "On top of this, offices that once stood empty have been transformed to help deliver much-needed new homes for communities while maintaining green belt protections."Permitted development rights have helped to deliver new homes while protecting the greenbelt, while planning officers have been given the opportunity to process more planning applications for larger schemes.Planning approvals are currently at a ten-year high, with 350,200 permissions granted in the year to June. This represents a two per cent rise on the previous year's figure.Earlier in the year, Mr Lewis hailed the government's planning reforms for changing people's attitudes to new developments and putting an end to Nimbyism.His remarks came after the publication of the British Social Attitudes survey, which revealed support for new residential properties increased from 28 per cent in 2010 to 47 per cent in 2013, while opposition to new developments fell from 46 per cent to 31 per cent during the same period.

Primary schoolkids lose top reading spotTop News | Riley Chan Dec 7, 2017
Every five years, the International Association for the Evaluation of Education Achievement uses the Progress in International Reading Literary Study in 50 countries to assess attainments in the students' first language.
The latest study shows Hong Kong students with an average test score of 569. Russia and Singapore claimed the top two spots with 581 and 576 respectively.
A total of 3,533 Hong Kong students - 1,837 boys and 1,695 girls - from 139 primary schools took part in the test commissioned by the Education Bureau from March to June last year.
They were asked to finish one information-providing passage and a literary one, with 40 minutes for both assignments.
Hong Kong's slide comes after it was first in 2011 with an average score of 571.
Tse Shek-kam of the University of Hong Kong's Faculty of Education said the SAR needs to "take bigger steps" to keep pace with Russia and Singapore.
"Looking at the score, there wasn't a significant change in Hong Kong students' reading ability over the years," he said. "But apparently Russia and Singapore are taking big steps each year while Hong Kong made no progress."
Apart from the test, the study also polled the pupils on reading interests and lesson engagement, while some 3,500 parents were asked about reading habits.
And Hong Kong ranked bottom of the 50 in student engagement in reading lessons, with 52 percent saying they were "somewhat engaged" and 14 percent said they were "less than engaged."
One-third of parents in the 50 participating countries said they enjoyed reading, but the figure was a lot lower in Hong Kong at 17 percent.
"Many parents in Russia read to their children every night," Tse said. "The reading culture directly impacts students' reading attainment."
Despite Tse's points, the Education Bureau was pleased overall with the results.
"The continuously remarkable performance of Hong Kong students validates that SAR education is heading in the right direction," a spokesman said.

Excerpts from Rayne's Journal
409, Avrilion 3.
I heard Chauncy humming the sweetest tune while grooming the lizards the other day. I asked him where he'd learned it and he looked at my slightly puzzled for a second. It seems it's something I hum whenever I go out to practice throwing my knives. I never noticed I hummed anything. I didn't even know I knew any songs. Must be one of those nursery rhyme things you never forget. Even if you can't remember how old you are.
409, Avrilion 7
After sitting for an afternoon with non stop thinking, I think I have finally remember the first line of that nursery rhyme! "You must know what I now know" It's really pretty! I sing it all the time, who knew I could sing? I think Chauncy's going to get annoyed if I don't learn another verse though. He insists that he doesn't know this nursery rhyme. Maybe dragonborn just have really different childhood songs than tieflings. Probably something about how great Balasar defeated the evil Leucis. Meanwhile the tiefling song must be about how the great Leucis defeated the evil Balasar. I'm sure that's it.
409, Avrilion 11
We were in Fourfalls today. Great news! Annabell, the bartenders daughter, is going to be married. Seems she met a very handsome soldier during the rebuilding and he's been visiting her whenever he's on leave. I asked her if she'd ever her a song that started with "You must know what I now know." She says she hasn't, but if it's a tiefling thing I should go ask another tielfing. They've got to know something, right?
409, Avrilion 12
Lucky me! A tiefling caravan just wandered in from Bael Turath to sell their wares. Unlucky me, not a one knows the song at all. In fact the more I talk with them the more I suspect I didn't grow up over there or around too many other tieflings. They were just awful to Chauncy when he came by my side. I didn't realize the hate ran so deep. I guess it's really weird that we live together. They did sell me a few new books to read as well as general lore. Though I'm sure they tried to rip me off. The jerks. I made sure they'd regret ripping off an innocent customer such as myself. Now Chauncy and I can go buy some fancy food for the lizards. We're eating good tonight!
409, Avrilion 18
I remembered the second line last night. I dreamed it I think. It must be because it was plaguing my mind. "Vi gûl hiril, vi orod," This is no tiefling song. It's elvish. It means roughly "In the witch mountains" in the common tongue. Why do I even know Elvish?
Erevan's Contemplations and Records
A cloudy evening
Written in Draconic
Finished reading the last tome of our local library. Rediscovering my ability to perfectly recall all helped speed up the process. It's astounding what one can forget with disuse. I wonder what else I could have forgotten. It would seem that I've also started picking up a few languages as a result as well. Perhaps they might help in my search.
A slight drizzling afternoon
Written in Primordial and in code
Radu's nervous, as seems to be the usual these days. Our superiors must have told him that I have requested extra work that involves travel. I swear, they like him too much. If only I believed it was merely my safety he was worried about. As it were, I now have access to more libraries, and to more knowledge, so long as I keep performing my job perfectly, as always.
A misty morning
Written in Deep Speech
Strange things have been happening lately. Anastrianna won't talk to me much anymore, and Tirhashkan left. Wherever that crazy little kitten got off to better include souvenirs, for all the trouble Radu's giving me about his disappearance; Tirhashkan is more than capable of handling herself. Perhaps even better than me. But stranger still, it seems, is that the shadows have begun to speak to me, as the Feywild once did, but does no longer.
Noon on the Full Moon
Written in Elven and in code
My clan visited me to inform me of my swift removal from the clan registrar. It would seem that the gradual changes I had observed in my very soul were not so gradual. The ways of the light, even if it be only moonlight, have left me, they said. No word of opposition could I produce. I agreed with them. I could no longer produce such a glorious presence as I once could. Now, the true face of my witch brings only fear. My path now lies beneath the darkness of the New Moon.
Midnight on the New Moon
Written in Elven and in code
Tirhashkan finally returned, walking among shadows as if they were her very fur, with a souvenir: my first ritual book. I was instructed, as I always am with her, that not all witches are granted the knowledge of how to perform rituals. Not all witches, she informed me, have the patience for the art. And yes, ritual casting is indeed an art. Though I must say, how difficult can it be to perform a ritual that reads omens. The very nature of a witch is intertwined with prophesy.
Tiamat Day-must it always be this sunny
Written in Supernal
Is there no way that Tiamat Day can become Tiamat Night? Surely then the ground might not be so hot! Not that me feet ever touch the ground anymore. As Radu enjoyed the festivities I went to have words with Gilresh. It was merely a small matter concerning his temple, but he seemed more than enthusiastic about it. I'm not sure if it's because he's Dragonborn or because he's Tiamat's high priest, but either way, I do not know how he can find a little ritual casting here and there that exciting. When Radu finally found me, I was stuck on the roof, preserving it, while a fascinated teenage Dragonborn watched me from the ground. Now, I must say that I only ended up occupying about 5 minutes of the High Priest's time, as it was merely the first casting and we were making sure everything went well. But nevertheless, Radu informed me that if I was to continue to do this each year, which I will, we would be coming several days earlier, so as not to distract anyone during this time of celebration. When he speaks so eloquently, who could argue against him. And as the year before, we satisfied our hungers with a partner or two before slipping off into the night.

While Cochlear's competitor Advanced Bionics is an old hand at product recalls, they're a new experience for the Australian company. With Advanced Bionics' implant still unavailable in the US after its November 2010 recall, Cochlear today announced a recall of unimplanted Nucleus CI500 devices. The recall is due to an observed increase in the failure rate; Cochlear now needs to examine its manufacturing processes to determine the cause.

text: Like cigarettes, alcohol, acrylic nails, and most everything fun, sun beds—responsible for up to 400,000 cases of skin cancer a year—are bad for you in the long run. For those who were born with a natural pallor (and can't quite live with it), sunless tanner will always be your friend. In fact, people who use sunless tanners catch almost 40 percent fewer UV rays than those who don't, according to one study. So if your resting complexion telegraphs Twilight superfan (and you're not into vampires), the fake tanners ahead create a believable UV-ray glow. No complicated applicators or rigorous blending needed.

Vol. XIV, N. 10 7 May 2010
Father General
As announced in the 12 April bulletin, Father General visited Central America and parts of the Caribbean from 19 April to 1 May. He made stops in Mexico, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Panama, Dominican Republic and Haiti. It was an intense trip full of visitations with Jesuits working in these countries. We spotlight two such encounters of his trip.
The first was his presence to the Third Conference of Jesuit Higher Education. During his long, warmly received and much appreciated talk, Father Nicolás pointed out the challenges the Society faces today, from the need to offer an education to the young in order to give them the capacity to work for a better future, to the urgency of finding solutions to such problems as: violence, climate changes, forced migrations, unequal distribution of goods, and lack of democracy. "We are looking for a better way to live more humanly, a way to live that involves less injustice, one that is less exclusive...We all want to be part of that change; we wish to be part of this process. The solutions, today, necessarily involve everyone who is part of the problem", he said among other things.
Continuing his presentation before nearly 200 participants representing more than 102 institutions from across the globe (some 40 people were prevented from attending due to ash clouds from the Iceland volcano) Father Nicolás noted: "I have sought to reflect with you on the challenges of globalization to Jesuit universities as institutions of learning, service and research. First, in response to the globalization of superficiality, I suggested that we need to study the emerging cultural world of our students more deeply and find creative ways of promoting depth of thought and imagination, a depth that is transformative of the person. Second, in order to maximize the potentials of new possibilities of communication and cooperation, I urged the Jesuit universities to work towards operational international networks that will address important issues touching faith, justice and ecology that challenge us across countries and continents. Finally, to counter the inequality of knowledge distribution, I encouraged a search for creative ways of sharing the fruits of research with the excluded, and in response to the global spread of secularism and fundamentalism, I invited Jesuit universities to a renewed commitment to the Jesuit tradition of learned ministry which mediates between faith and culture."
The emotional and deeply symbolic "highlight" of the trip was his visit to Haiti, where the Jesuits are helping in the efforts to rebuild the country after the devastating earthquake of 12 January. Father General met the Jesuits and their collaborators, and visited communities and camps filled with the homeless. The visit was as an act of solidarity and support for the Jesuit commitment in Haiti being undertaken in the midst of so many difficulties. On the 29th of April, while in Haiti, Father General celebrated his birthday.
Upon his return to Rome, Father Nicolás responded to several questions.
Q. This trip took you, once again, to the American continent, this time to Mexico and Central America where you visited a number of countries and Jesuit Provinces. What impressions do you have about the Society of Jesus there?
R. Going to Mexico and Central America is very much like going home. I grew up with much Latin Music (J. Negrete, I. Vila...), movies (Mexico, Argentina...) and humour (M. Moreno "Cantinflas", Luis Sandrini...). Then in the critical '60s, '70s and '80s I followed the events and developments in Central America with great interest. Going there now it was like reliving those years, the tensions and the pains of a generation and the martyrdom of people like Archbishop Romero, and the Jesuits and their colleagues at the UCA (University of Central America), as well as other Jesuits and lay people who were killed for the sake of Faith and Justice. It is very sad to see that the struggles of that time have not brought the fruits we all expected and that extreme inequality, poverty and injustice continue to fill the land. I found it very impressive to visit the house and tomb of Archbishop Romero where one can so easily be touched by the devotion of the little people. Likewise, I was impressed visiting the house where our Jesuits lived and where they, together with their cook and her daughter, were mercilessly killed in a place and manner that could not escape the eyes, ears, and notice of the military.
The Jesuits in turn appeared to me to be very consistent: dedicated to the poor, working very hard in education, social issues, pastoral areas, etc. I appreciated very much the humour of the Mexican Jesuits - a humour that allows them to live and search together for a better service of the Church and people. I appreciated, likewise, how much the Jesuits of Central America are close to the people, concerned with their problems and suffering, sharing everything with lay men and women collaborators that so well embody Jesuit spirituality and work with us in our ministries.
Q. What are the most urgent problems crying out for special attention?
R. I think that the GC35 has already indicated the areas that require our attention. The Jesuits in this part of the world are very alert to the Frontiers, old and new, of our ministry and work. This applies to the Frontiers in education, as expressed in the Congress of Mexico, as well as to the Frontiers in all other ministries in which our men work. Maybe the call of GC35 for Reconciliation, for building bridges, for a "living fire" that keeps us alert to Faith and Justice, Culture, Ecology and Dialogue is more visible and dramatic in this Region. How to keep this fire burning in an age of greater and closer cooperation with the laity will remain as an important issue for the Society to respond to.
Q. This trip also took you to Haiti. What are your impressions of the country?
R. Haiti still is under the shock of the Earthquake. The City Port-au-Prince looks like a Museum of Disasters. I did not see much evidence that reconstruction is taking place. Most of the work I saw was done by NGOs (non-governmental organizations) or Religious Groups. The President's Palace is still semi-destroyed; the airport is still cracked and no repair work seems to be taking place. Hangars are used for arriving and departing passengers; collapsed houses are still in state of collapse with the rubble in view; camps for people who lost everything are numerous and in horrible state. I wonder what will happen to the poor people living in those camps when the tropical rains come very soon. No solutions appear in view and I am afraid that people might be living in their present horrible conditions for a long while to come. Seeing so many little children among them one shivers at the prospect of their growing up in such conditions.
Q. And what about the work of the Jesuits in Haiti?
R. I found the Jesuits in Haiti doing excellent work and focused on the right priorities and perspectives. They have responded very generously to the emergency and, when things began to be somehow channeled, they concentrated their reflections and efforts into the reconstruction of the country. This is an enormous task, and they soon could join other forces for greater cooperation yet without losing a vision of transforming the present crisis into a creative time to work and build for the good of the country and with Haitian eyes, not simply following the dictates of other countries outside. Some of them are very tired and exhausted, because of the ongoing work they have been carrying since the earthquake. The exhaustion is both physical and spiritual or psychic, but they go on without pause. I left the country greatly inspired and encouraged by their generosity and their shared desire to work for a New Haiti. It was also encouraging to meet Jesuit Novices and Lay Volunteers who are offering all kinds of help in different areas: medical, technical, structural, etc. Disasters have a way of attracting the best of humanity, and one can find such goodness in Haiti right now.

I highly recommend Tom Cooke at QED Legal. He spent a lot of time and effort assisting me in securing two positions, guiding me through the process, providing tailored advice and assurances. He was honest and listened to what I wanted from a potential employer and found roles which met my criteria. Tom kept me updated at each stage, obtaining feedback after every stage of the recruitment process. Tom really did everything he could to help me secure a position that best suited me.

Order you full scale tray arm futon frame, mattress and
cover set and get a futon that is packed full of useful
features. Matching end tables could cost you up to $149
each. However this hardwood tray arm futon has two end
tables built right in to the arm rests. When not in use,
they fold down to create a sophisticated closed mission
panel look.
Set your drinks and chips on the trays when you are
watching your favorite game or film on TV, then fold them
down whenever you like. As a bed, these trays can serve as
a place to rest your eyeglasses, a cup of water, an alarm
clock or bedside medication.
This is the ideal futon for those who needed the added
features, but are limited on space. Saving up to $300.00 by
not having to buy matching end tables is surely a good
reason to buy your Tray arm futon set

With today's action 92 percent of state waters are open. Commercial fishing will reopen immediately today, September 23, to the harvest of finfish, crabs and shrimp in all state waters east of the Mississippi River north of the northern shore of Pass a Loutre and 29 degrees 12 minutes 40 seconds north latitude. The openings also include the recreational harvest of shrimp and crabs. LDWF Secretary Robert Barham ordered these openings following the completion of comprehensive testing by the FDA. The FDA has advised that following extensive sensory testing and analytical chemistry results, the fish tissue samples tested from these previously closed areas are safe for consumption. State inside waters in the Mississippi River delta south of the northern shore of Pass a Loutre and adjacent state outside waters south of 29 degrees 12 minutes 40 seconds north latitude westward to the western shore of Southwest Pass of the Mississippi River and portions of state waters in the Barataria and Terrebonne Basins will remain closed to commercial fishing until further notice. While LDWF continues to work closely with the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals to ensure the safety of Louisiana's seafood, these openings do not include the harvest of oysters, as this activity is regulated by DHH.

A couple weeks ago we had a bit of silly fun here and a giveaway. I was asked to make 5 statements, only one of which was true, and out of the people who correctly guessed the true answer, a winner would be picked to receive a copy of Diane Eblin's e-book The Gluten Free Diner.
If you have been missing out on all those diner favorites since going gluten-free, you don't have to any longer. Diane's book is packed with diner-inspired recipes for everything from Bacon and Eggs to Chocolate Sorbet and all the recipes are gluten and dairy free. This book will inspire you to create hundreds of fabulous combinations. So Mel, you can just eat our grits, we don't need gluten-filled diner food any longer.
Before I announce the winner, let's get to take a look at the questions and see which is really true.
1. I own 257 pairs of shoes, 237 of which are black. Nope, false. I may have at one time owned that many shoes and undoubtedly the majority were black but I have been on a mission to purge things in my life I don't need or use so huge bags of shoes went off to the Goodwill for someone else to enjoy. Now however I am thinking I did a little too much purging and it is time for a little shoe shopping…
2. I was born in Manila in The Philippines. Close but false. I was born in Virginia and when I was 11 months old moved to The Philippines. My earliest memories are of living in Manila and of the wonderful people and food I was exposed to there.
3. I am currently building a chicken coop in my back yard and have 4 beautiful laying hens on order so I can have fresh eggs every day. As much as I would like for this to be true, sadly no. The hubby and I keep talking about it – I am all for those fresh eggs but a little concerned that the reality of owning chickens is not as great as the idea of owning chickens. After all, I have never heard the term chicken poop used in a good way!
4. I was once charged by a herd of elephants in the wilds of Africa and had to run for my life. This one is true! I was in Swaziland in Southern Africa at a game park called Hlane Royal National Park. Now, all sensible people stay in their vehicles and admire the free roaming, wild animals in this vast area. My husband and I however decided to get just a bit closer so I could get a better photo. We saw a herd of elephants munching on some acacia trees and crept up, hoping to go unnoticed. Oops! They noticed and believe me were not happy. They started to charge and my husband and I ran faster than the speed of light and dove head first into the van. But only after I got a couple awesome shots!
5. I wear the same size jeans today as I did when I got married. Sadly, no. Carrying my first child was like wearing a shoe stretcher inside me between my hip bones for 9 months, making room for that baby to grow. Cost of new jeans, $100.00, a beautiful baby boy – priceless! But I can not thank all of you enough who guessed # 5 – seriously made my day!
And now to announce our lucky winner – Michelle B.
Congratulations Michelle, I will be emailing you and you will be serving fabulous diner-inspired gluten free meals at your home very soon!

Ryan Seacrest is apparently single, despite being photographed embracing two women on a yacht.
Seacrest was snapped with two women while they were sailing in the South of France, fuelling rumors that he was romantically involved with one or both ladies.
A source close to the American Idol host has since clarified to TMZ that Seacrest is not dating either of the women, and is in fact single at this time.
One woman was identified as Janelle Hallier, who is the wife of Seacrest's best friend, multi-millionaire financier Laurence Hallier.
The other person photographed on Seacrest's yacht was apparently a model named Audra Marie, who is also dating a close friend of the presenter.
Seacrest ended his long-running relationship with ex-girlfriend Julianne Hough in March.
He was also linked to Sports Illustrated model Dominique Piek late last month.

View Femap Loads as Contour Plots19 Mar, 2012 By: Alastair Robertson
Femap Tips and Tricks: Verify the correct loading definition in a model by creating an output set and contouring it.
Editor's Note: This tutorial courtesy of Siemens PLM.
One method of quickly verifying the correct loading definition — particularly for two-dimensional spatial loads such as pressures or temperatures — is to view the load as a contour plot. In a model where you have such a loading definition, you can set the load to be an output vector in a new set, which can then be treated as any output vector and contoured.
The first step is to create the new output set by selecting Model > Output > Create/Manage Set in the menu, clicking the New Output Set button in the Output Set Manager dialog box, and entering a title for the set in the New Output Set dialog.
The next step is to populate the set with (in this case) the element pressure load vector by selecting Model > Output > From Load in the menu, selecting Pressures in the Elemental Loads section of the Select Type of Load dialog box, and clicking OK.
Femap then creates the new output vector of pressure elemental pressure loads in the new output set, which can then be viewed as a contour using the regular postprocessing commands.
Select View Select in the menu and click the Deformed and Contour Data button. In the Output Set section of the Select PostProcessing Data dialog, select the new set and the vector for contouring.
The resulting contour plot for our example is shown below.

You know how many foreigners say they like Americans, but they just don't like our President? And they can't understand why we keep electing him? I've tried endlessly to explain that Bush represents many policies that Americans agree with, and Bush is pretty moderate compared to many Americans.
Well, ditto that with Putin and Russia.
Oleg Shchedrov of Reuters (linked here via Washington Post) cites a latest opinion poll, conducted by VTsIOM for Renaissance Capital. The poll indicated that:
- 81% of those polled believed Russia was creating a strong global role;
- 90% approved increasing government involvement in the Russian economy;
- 66% of respondents agreed that Russians lived better now than in the Soviet Union in 1991;
- 72% said Russia was moving in the right direction.
Assuming Putin steps down as pledged next March, 52% said they would "definitely" or "probably" vote for a candidate of his choice.
Renaissance Capital said, regarding the poll results:
"Given the significant popular pressure, it is impressive that the government under President Putin has been as hands-off as it has been with the economy. Similarly, Putin's more aggressive foreign policy stance, while undermining relations in the West, has proved popular at home. The case can be made that Putin is a liberal relative to the median Russian voter."

The Catalyst Census reports were designed to establish accurate statistics and provide points of comparison with the goal of promoting women's advancement and garnering attention for this issue.
The Census uses a research methodology that counts a population. This design differentiates Catalyst's research from studies that use survey methodologies because it removes the need for a representative sample, thereby ensuring a precise picture of women's status and progress.
Catalyst studies Financial Post 500 (FP500) companies as the population not only because these are the largest companies by revenue in Canada each year, but also because they are widely recognized as the most powerful and influential Canadian businesses.
Both public and private companies are asked to verify:
- The total number of board directors.
- The total number of women board directors.
- The name, position, and gender of each board director as of June 18, 2013.
For this Census, 84.8% of non-public companies participated in the verification process.

Graeme Smith won his bitter personal battle with Kevin Pietersen in fairytale fashion.
The torrid war of words between the Proteas captain and England's South African-born batsman had created a dramatic sub-text to what was always going to be an explosive World Cup clash which both sides needed to win.
But it was Smith who came out on top when he took a superb diving catch to dismiss Pietersen at mid-off for just three runs.
The day was to get even better for Smith as his team dismissed England for a paltry 154 before he smashed an unbeaten 89 in just 58 balls as South Africa dumped England out of the tournament in a crushing nine-wicket win.
Pietersen's first match in two years against the country of his birth had been billed as a needle clash.
Unfortunately for the supporters, the show lasted just four overs as Smith dived forward to bring off a stunning low catch off the bowling of Andre Nel to account for the 26-year-old Pietersen, the world's top batsman.
It was the catch Smith did not want to drop and South Africa celebrated as if they had taken more than just a wicket.
Pietersen arrived in the middle to thunderous applause from England fans, but soon felt the heat, being greeted by a bouncer from fast bowler Nel early in his innings.
The next delivery struck him on the body, with Nel staring hard at the batsman. Pietersen opened his account with a single and then changed his bat.
Smith wins Pietersen duel at World Cup
Graeme Smith won his bitter personal battle with Kevin Pietersen in fairytale fashion.
But it was to no avail as he soon became Nel's second victim.
Pietersen and Smith's stormy relationship has been simmering along since England's tour of South Africa in 2005 when Pietersen plundered 454 runs with three centuries on his first return to his homeland since his controversial exit.
That the England batsman received a hostile reception was no surprise after he decided to switch allegiance in protest at the quota system in South Africa. He was called an opportunist with Smith saying he did not like the England batsman.
"I'm patriotic about my country, and that's why I don't like Kevin Pietersen - the only reason that Kevin and I have never had a relationship is because he slated South Africa," Smith said.
In turn, the England batsman described Smith as a "muppet" and added: "I don't talk to Smith. It's a waste of breath because I don't have any respect for him."
Smith may not like Pietersen, but has admitted he respects him as a player.
"He is one of the best one-day players at the moment. He's a vital cog in their setup and we have respect for his cricketing ability," said the South African skipper.
Pietersen tried to diffuse a potential explosive situation on the eve of the match, saying Tuesday's game was more than just about the two individuals.
"I think everyone knows we don't get on, but that's gone. It's going to be a big game with a lot of needle," he said.

Gurgaon: From the crowded bylanes of old Delhi to a walk into the history at the ruins of the past to a ride on a Metro - different sides of Delhi have found their way onto the silver screen. And now, actress Deepika Padukone says her character in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's forthcoming film "Bajirao Mastani" is imbued with certain traits of the city.
"A lot of inspiration comes from Delhi in terms of style and fashion. There are certain things from the film itself and especially my character Mastani, which draws inspiration from the city," Deepika said at an event here.
The actress was speaking at the launch of the film's song titled "Deewani Mastani", which was unveiled here on Saturday.
The film, slated to release on December 18, brings forward a love story of a warrior princess - Mastani, who was the second wife Maratha Peshwa Bajirao I (played by Ranveer Singh). It also stars Priyanka Chopra as Bajirao's first wife, Kashibai.
Deepika points out that the film is high on aesthetic values.
"Be it set designs, costumes, jewelry, hair and make-up, a lot of detailing has gone into making the final outcome," she said.
The actress is looking forward to the release of Bhansali's magnum opus as she notes that 2015 has been an "exciting" year.
"It is an exciting year for me. There was 'Piku' in which I play a role of a simple girl living in Delhi with roots in Kolkata. And now 'Bajirao Mastani' which is a complete contrast. My role in the film is different in all sense. So, it has been challenging and exciting year," Deepika said.

I am a 40-year-old mom and wife and I am on a journey to lose over 100 pounds. It's been a long time of soul-searching trying to figure out where I went wrong and why I allowed myself to get this way, this far out of control. To be honest I am still figuring this out.
I was not always over weight so I cannot say this is a problem I have always faced. I started gaining weight after I graduated high school. I went through some big life changes my senior year which kicked off my spiral out of control. I was very active before that being in dance, cosmetology and walking and or riding a bike almost daily. I was not a heavy pop drinker and I did not over eat. I was healthy and thin. My adult life however is a different story. Without going into detail I will just say that my senior year everything changed. I was in a new surrounding, new school, new people. No longer was I active, no dance or walking or bike rides and being in a household that ate like a buffet at any time of the day and drank pop like it was fixing to get discontinued. Of course I fell right into this right along side everyone else in the house. This mixed with all kinds of emotions and feelings from being around all new people, making new friends and having a completely different life started me down this path I have not been able to get off. I will not say that I regret the changes because in this I met my husband whom I have been with more than 20 years now and had my son who is almost 17. I wouldn't trade them for anything and they are the best thing that came out of the situation. I don't know what caused me to continue doing the unhealthy things I was doing honestly. I think gaining weight even a little made me lose my confidence and self-worth and from there I just got worse and gained even more weight. I finally stopped gaining once I reached a whopping 365 pounds and decided this was enough. I have to get my life back!
I will be honest and say it has not been easy and I have failed myself more than once. I've tried weight watchers a few times, diet pills with no success as well. I also went to far with exercise and not eating enough calories per day that my metabolism went down to a crawl. I would lose a little and fall off track. It's hard to understand the concept that you want something really badly and you don't get it, you fall off track. So many things have to come into play for the steps of success to work and I simply was not ready to take those steps apparently. The last attempt at this which was over a year ago I started a walk/jog program which was very hard to jog at my weight but I was determined to get this weight off. I began the program 6 days per week, sometimes 7 and was eating only around 1,200 calories per day. I was in pain everyday in my shins from the jogging and was tired all the time from not getting enough fuel for my body. The scales would not move! I couldn't lose a pound through this so I stopped of course. Then the following summer we spoke with a personal trainer and nutritionist. She put me on 2,000 calories per day, very little to no cardio and weight training 3 days per week. I followed this for 2 months and I lost a lot of inches but scales still did not go down, I was frustrated an again gave up. My husband finally told me it was time to see a Dr. and find out why I am not losing weight. With everything I was doing weight should have melted off. So I set up a visit my Dr. and went in and had lots of tests run. Thyroid, diabetes and a full work up on my cholesterol, triglycerides etc. Everything came back good but thyroid. They said my level was at 15 which should have been around 1. He said it was barely working and was most likely why I was not losing weight. I was put on thyroid hormone medication and after a year of adjusting the meds to get me more level and now at last visit being at a 2 I thought I would try to lose weight again.
So this starts my current journey. I hope you follow the blog and are inspired or motivated to change your life too. I can guarantee I will not be perfect I can guarantee I will have slip ups and learn new lessons along this journey but I will not quit! I will lose this weight.
Thanks for reading my story. Please follow and share, I would love to get to know you!!
