Arthur Curry: 1983 - 2001
Princess Atlanna's first husband, Lord Trevis died in battle shortly after the two were wed. As is customary among grieving Atlanteans, Atlanna undertook a journey intended to help her regain her composure. Still young and foolhardy, Atlanna dared to undertake her sojourn among the surface-dwelling humans. It was while visiting Amnesty Bay that Queen Atlanna met Tom Curry, a human lighthouse keeper, and fell madly in love. Atlanna had a child with Tom, a child they named Arthur (after the titular character of "The Once and Future King," which Tom had read to Atlanna) and for years, Atlanna was happy to live among the humans, neglecting her heritage and responsibilities... until the passing of her father required her to return home.
While sailing with Arthur, Atlanna's ship was scuttled by Atlantean scouts sent to retrieve Atlanna so she could be crowned. In the process, mother and son were both knocked unconscious and while Atlanna was claimed by the Atlanteans, Arthur was mistook for a human casualty and left floating in the sea by the scouts that had taken his mother. Arthur was later rescued by his father, washed up on the shore, injured but alive. Unable to find Atlanna, Tom and Arthur held a funeral and mourned their loss.
Tom took to drinking and though he was never an abusive father, he was never quite the same. Arthur was a troubled kid with a juvenile record to prove it. He was prone to violence and trouble never seemed to be far from him, but Arthur claims he never went looking for it... He just had a knack for letting it find him.
Uh huh, right. After Arthur's graduation, Tom celebrated with a few too many beers. In his drunken stupor, he saw Atlanna checking on her family from the sea, only to disappear when she realized she had been seen. Drunk, Tom jumped in after his believed to be dead wife. Arthur jumped in after him. Arthur saved his father from drowning that day, but one night after that summer, while Arthur was sleeping, Tom Curry took their sailboat out for a late-night voyage to look for Atlanna. Tom Curry was never seen again.[1]
Orin of Atlantis: 2001 - 2009
After the death of his father, Arthur Curry found himself suffering from migraine headaches and, like his father before him, tried to self-medicate through alcohol, only to find no amount of beer, whiskey, or anything else he could find in Amnesty Bay would get Arthur drunk. Arthur kept this to himself and continued to run the lighthouse, becoming more and more reclusive.
One morning, Arthur went for a morning swim. Upon returning to the shore, Arthur found a ghost awaiting his return. Atlanna embraced him, proving she was alive and began the long story of where she had been these many years, and how she was the Queen of the underwater nation of Atlantis. It took some convincing to get Arthur to believe this tale of magic and mer-folk, but it explained many of the mysteries about his own life... except the migraines. When hearing of these headaches, Atlanna insisted that Arthur be brought to Atlantis.
Under the sea, Arthur learned many more things (like he could breathe underwater and he had a half-brother) and after meeting with the Royal Wizard of Atlantis, also learned that he had a rare gift. All Atlanteans were mildly telepathic, it is how they communicate underwater, but Arthur possessed the "Gift of Kordax," a recessive trait present only among Atlanteans of royal lineage which enhanced their psionic ability to allow them to command sea-life, but also allowed them to not only project their thoughts for communication, but instinctively detect the intentions of others, giving them an edge in combat, diplomacy, and leadership.
Atlanna decided to legitimize Arthur, giving him the Atlantean name of Orin. Within a year, Arthur married his mother's attendant, Mera. As Prince Orin, he talked his mother into officially making contact with the surface world in 2005 and became the nation's ambassador to surface affairs, even becoming a superhero when the JLA invited him to join them (Flash named him "Aquaman"). Impressed with her son's clear mastery of his gifts and hybrid heritage, Atlanna named Arthur heir to the throne, hoping to usher in a bright future for Atlantis. Instead, she brought her own death at the hands of her son, Orm, and bloody war for the throne of Atlantis.[2]
Aquaman: 2010 - Present
It took Arthur years to rally the people of Atlantis against the armies and mercenaries of his half-brother Prince Orm (now calling himself Ocean Master). After the war, Arthur insisted he had work that needed to be done (and even a newborn son on top of it all), but at the urging of Mera and his Royal Court, with the war over, it was time for Arthur to pay his respects to his mother by undertaking the traditional journey of mourning.
So while Orin may have been forced to take a break, Arthur was always one who found manual labor the best way to clear his head. Arthur returned to the surface, with Mera and his son (Arthur, Jr, aka: "AJ") in tow, restored his father's lighthouse to working order, and began to take a more active role among the Justice League (which was now under the supervision of the United Nations). When it came time to return to Atlantis, Arthur did so, but realized more than ever he had before that he was meant to be a bridge between the people of the surface and the sea. To that end, Arthur trusted the daily operations of his kingdom to his wife, advisers, and even his young son, AJ who was already being trained to be much more proper monarch than his father.
This freed Arthur up to travel as a guardian and enforcer of the peace, whether in the sea or on the surface, often accompanying the Justice League on their adventures and representing the interests of Atlantis among the United Nations.
In his many years as Aquaman, Arthur has taken many pupils (two Aqualads, two Aquagirls, and even a Lagoon Boy) but through it all he has only had one real partner: Mera, his queen and consort, who he adores to this day, much to the complaint of many Justice League fangirls out there... Yes, even I admit I've gotten weak in the knees seeing him without a shirt.
When not on an adventure, Arthur is usually at home, and whether that is his castle under the sea or his humble lighthouse beside it, Arthur remains, above all, a champion of his people, human and Atlantean alike.[3]

Trivia and Notes
- "Waterbearer" is his Oracle-given codename.
- Aquaman joined the Justice League of America in 2005 nominated by Superman.
- Stephanie Brown, Cassandra Cain and many other female heroes consider him hot, as seen in Oracle Files: Arthur Curry 1.
- Thanks to his power of telepathy he once caught Dick Grayson thinking dirty thoughts about Mera.
- His identity as Aquaman and Orin is known to the public (he is a public celebrity), but his identity as Arthur Curry is a secret to most.
- To the Atlanteans, Aquaman is Orin. Aquawoman is Mera. Tempest is Garth. They do not really have secret identities under the sea. Some have titles. Tempest is a title. Aquaman, Aquawoman, Aqualad, and Aquagirl are all essentially seen as roles to be filled. Tula was Aquagirl, now she is simply Tula. Kaldur'ahm was Aqualad, now he is simply Kaldur'ahm. Dolphin is and always was Dolphin. Kaldur and Tula do not really need hero names anymore. Both spend most of their time in service to the Throne in one form or another and both can use their Atlantean names among humans just as easily. They do not have secret identities to conceal.
- Orm often calls his brother "Orin zin'Atlan" ("zin" is used in Atlantean naming conventions to call someone a 'bastard child').
- In E27 Aquaman is a jovial badass. He likes to have fun and party with his friends, family, and subjects... but when he throws down, he throws down hard. He can hold his own against the likes of Kryptonians, Dark Knights, Amazonian demigoddesses, Green Lanterns, and Speedsters.
- His appearance is based on Jason Momoa, who portrays him in the Justice League and Aquaman DC Extended universe films.
- According to Roy, regarding Arthur's name, "I just felt like Arthur would feel like he was actually a Curry more so than an Atlan. After all, the people who raised him were Curry."

Tips for buying a hearing aid.
Know what's best for your hearing health.
See a hearing care professional first.
Get information about hearing loss, treatment options, and schedule an appointment with a hearing care professional (HCP). Your HCP helps decide if a hearing aid can correct your type and degree of hearing loss. To find your nearest provider, call HearingPlanet at 1300 209 826. If you are eligible for OHS, we'll help arrange the paperwork.
Tip: Don't hesitate to ask people you know about their personal experiences, references and tips. You might even want to check if any hearing care professionals have online rankings or awards.
Take your time. Your hearing health is important.
During your appointment, you'll undergo a series of special, pain free hearing tests. Try not to feel stressed during the hearing exams or when making decisions. Take your time and don't feel rushed – it's important that you get the most out of the process.
Recommended: If you're nervous or anxious about your appointment, think about bringing along a family member or friend for support.
Choose the right hearing aid for everyday life.
Hearing tests determine the frequencies and pitches your ears can detect - but that's just part of the process. To choose the best hearing aid to suit your needs, it's important to know a bit about your daily routine.
Your hearing care professional might ask you:
- What bothers you the most when it comes to hearing problems?
- Is it hard to hear when you are outdoors?
- How about driving, listening to music or using a mobile phone?
- Do you clearly hear conversation in a crowded room?
Be prepared: Think about hearing situations that give you trouble. Then talk about this with your hearing care professional. Questions? Call 1300 209 826 (9am - 5pm, Mon - Fri).
Did you know?
Several different types of hearing aids are available nowadays. Your choice depends on your type of hearing loss and your preferences.
You might benefit from equipment upgrades.
Ask your hearing care professional about possible upgrades to your hearing device. These modifications may give you even better hearing when watching TV, talking on the phone or chatting in groups. The availability of these options vary from hearing aid to hearing aid.
Tip: The more information you provide to your hearing care professional about your day-to-day experiences, the faster and more accurately they can make recommendations.
Finding a hearing aid just for you.
Feel free to test several hearing aids until you find the best one for you. Your hearing care professional will be there to guide you and answer questions. Get a hearing aid that feels right, improves your hearing health, and lets you enjoy life to the fullest.

Hello everybody,
as I'm sure most of you have notived that there have been changes in the non profit license terms over the last couple of days and a few new lines have appeared in the license:
e. You may not create channels or virtual servers for the purpose of "sharing" your license with another organization. Utilizing your NPL to act as an "intermediary TeamSpeak server provider" to other organizations is strictly prohibited.
Can you please explain in more detail what exactly is meant by "for the purpose of sharing your license with other organizations"? I've got a hosting- and sponsoring website and have been supporting clans with webspaces and Teamspeak 3 servers, is that still allowed???
I've seen some replies on other queries about this matter (in German, I'll give my best to translate it).
Thank you for contacting Teamspeak support. Sponsoring Teamspeak 3 servers is not prohibited. Our Teamspeak 3 NPL is still available for hosting servers within your project.
So if I have a sponsoring website and somebody signs up on my site and asks for sponsoring they are "part of my project".
But what I think is really confusing is whether public servers are allowed or not. May a non profit license owner host a public server free for anyone to join and create their own channels and use it for their projects? Or does that count as "sharing your license"...
Please clarify this matter.
Thank you!

Brick Books, 204 pages, paperback, $20.00
My mind tends to operate based on years. Some 25 years ago, when I was a teenager, I was obsessed with the NHL and in particular, the hockey players from the 1950s and 1960s. Keeping with the theme of years and facts and anniversaries, it's been nearly 10 years since I first laid eyes on Randall Maggs's masterwork of hockey poetics Night Work: The Sawchuk Poems, a book of poetry which launched at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto with Lord Stanley looking on in delight in the back row.
The book's 10th anniversary edition comes with an introduction by Angie Abdou and a proud litany of the book's well-deserved reviews in the back. The book remains an archive of artistic effort and merit, but also captures the spirited obsession readers of sports history can feel on their own. A certain type of loneliness. Taken out of the garrison of nonfiction and into the limitless form that is poetry, a drama unfolds. The line breaks, the rearranged sweat, voice and pain all mixed together in an elixir of death and life is a type of poetic reincarnation. Taking voices from the past, from countless interviews Maggs has conducted for the book, this teeming with ambiance, such as the opening lines from Bay Roberts, ("Strange mix, the low-tide odour in the air/and damp of all our gear we can't get dry, but nothing's/what we're used to since our coming here.")
This book comes at a time of perennial sadness to Toronto and its Maple Leafs, a team Sawchuk breathed life into more than once over 50 years ago. Just as the Leafs have once again been jettisoned from the playoffs and are rebuilding, sitting alone with an impressive and likely never to be broken record of 51 straight seasons without winning the Stanley Cup, a dreg from that great and last Stanley Cup team is haunting the world once more. And the glory continues, with the official announcement from major media outlets including Variety, that the feature film Goalie is coming out soon and will star Mark O'Brien as the late Terry Sawchuk. From the article in early April, "Goalie is directed by Adriana Maggs from a screenplay by Maggs and her sister Jane Maggs."
More astonishing perhaps than this tidbit is the finer print in the announcement, a total anomaly in the world of poetry book publishing. "The film is based in part on the book of poetry Night Work by Randall Maggs and Sawchuk: The Troubles and Triumphs of the World's Greatest Goalie by David Dupuis." How often do a poet's daughters write a film script based on their poetry? I'm thinking one time. Maggs offers his thoughts on the news that his work will continue to live on, now in the form of a feature film:
I just watched the rough-cut version of Goalie last night. It took me all the way back to the afternoon my daughters, Adriana and Jane, and Adriana's two boys crowded into a booth at Gabby's on Roncesvalles and talked about writing a film script based on Night Work. Last night, hearing their work come to life and hearing some of my own words being spoken by some wonderful actors, including Mark O'Brien in the lead role, was a very moving experience. But, this is her film. Watching that film last night, rough-cut version though it is at this point, and thinking back to my visit to Sudbury seeing her working long hard hours to put the script she and Jane wrote into the scenes that she visualized, I understood that fully. Just as I took the stories that Red Storey and Johnny Bower and Butch Bouchard and Gary Bergman and so many others so unselfishly gave me–"You want a Sawchuk story?" Gary Bergman said to me in a bar in downtown Detroit one chilly afternoon, "I'll give you a Sawchuk story, but you gotta put that pen down"–in the same way that I took those stories and metamorphosed them into my book of poems, she has taken that book and the script she and Jane worked long and hard at, and made them into her film. So, yes, hearing words I'd written being spoken did feel wonderful, but it was also very humbling. And satisfying, unaccountably so (but who cares about that?) to see what I'd written as a part of this important collaborative process. And who knows, but maybe someone will take her film and make it into something else and we'll eventually get even closer to the truth of Terry's complicated story and perhaps some larger truth even more important than that.

When eleven-year-old Reagan Angers broke her leg last year, she and her family thought it was just that— a broken leg.
But when they went to get it checked out, her doctors discovered that it was much more than a broken leg. Reagan had a tumor.
Her mom, Kim, explains to WAFB:
"They found a tumor that was on her leg and we went through a few weeks of it's possibly cancer. It might not be. Yes it is. No it's not. And eventually after they did another surgery they determined that it was cancer."
After determining that it was bone cancer, doctors were required to remove eight and a half inches of femur bone from Reagan's leg. In its place they put in a titanium prosthetic bone. In addition, Reagan has had to undergo ten months of intensive chemotherapy.
The past year has been difficult, but the power of prayer has helped Reagan through the tough times.
"Prayer is a big part of my life especially since all of my family is Christian and most of them are Catholic. That was just a big part of it that helped me get my hopes up," she says.
Now she inspiring others at her school and in her community by living by one simple motto: "Have faith in God and never give up."
"I mean a horrible thing has happened to her and she's going to use it for God's good. She really is. She's going to change lives and I know that," community member, Anna Haldane, affirms.
And after much prayer and intensive treatments, Reagan's parents say she is now cancer free.

Story by Iman Hashim/Red Sports. Photos by Stefanus Ian/Red Sports and REDintern Jared Khoo
Kallang Practice Track, Saturday, January 12, 2019 — At the Polytechnic-ITE (POL-ITE) Championships two months ago, Haanee Hamkah's margin of victory over Clara Goh was just 0.17 seconds.
This time round, it was down to a mere 0.09s as the Temasek Polytechnic (TP) sprint duo went head-to-head again in the 100-metre final of the Institute-Varsity-Polytechnic (IVP) Track and Field Championships, finishing one-two.
Surely, the regular sparring during school training has borne fruit as both girls achieved personal bests — Haanee's 12.66s bettered her POL-ITE winning time of 12.73s, while Clara twice rewrote her previous mark of 12.86s in the heats (12.79s) and final (12.75s) of this IVP meet.
"Honestly we've always been finishing very close, even during training," said Haanee. "But I think because of that, she motivates me to push even further. So that's why she's a very good training partner for me."
Just like their race finishes, the teammates are equally tight off the track.
Clara quipped: "Like what my coach said, on the track we must focus on our race like we are rivals, but then after that we are like sisters, we are friends."
The pair are coached during school training by Haanee's father and former national sprinter, Hamkah Afik, who is also the current national relay coach.
Haanee acknowledged the impact her father has had on her training and performance.
"I think he has really played a huge part in (my improvement)," said the former Cedar Girls' Secondary athlete. "And because of the effective training, I've been improving quite a lot recently. Also in poly, it is a different environment from secondary school so I think that the new environment has really helped me to push further and have more discipline."
In the men's century sprint final, Nanyang Technological University (NTU)'s Khairyll Amri rose to the occasion as he came out tops in a strong field of competitors.
Khairyll's 10.87s proved enough to edge the competition, as Nanyang Polytechnic (NYP)'s Joshua Chua, TP's Dexter Lin and Singapore Management University (SMU)'s Tan Zong Yang sprinted home in a tight 2-3-4 finish, in 10.95s, 10.96s and 10.98s respectively.
This is the first time in at least 12 years that the top four of the IVP men's 100m final have all dipped below the 11-second barrier, and with all eight finalists finishing under 11.3s.
"This year it was actually very interesting in a sense," said Khairyll, giving a nod to the high quality competition he faced. "I had to really be mentally prepared. So in the past two days I was just focusing a bit more, not on the competition, but what I had to do during the race.
"I train with some of them and I know that they are actually doing very well in training. The poly students are getting faster and faster, which is surprisingly amazing.
"I can see the progression — there's more of development, rather than just focusing on results itself."
Silver medalist Joshua Chua welcomed the challenge presented by his competitors, especially up-and-coming TP hotshot Dexter Lin.
Joshua had edged Dexter to the POL-ITE 100m gold two months ago by the tiniest of margins — to be exact, just three-thousandths of a second in a 10.93s photo finish. This time round, the 0.01s difference between the pair was not any much bigger.
"We push each other on and off the track and I'm really happy for him on his improvements," said Joshua, formerly of Raffles Institution and holder of the National Schools B Division boys' 100m record. "He works very hard and deserves everything he's achieved.
"We have a very good relationship off the track and I hope we will continue to lower our timings for the rest of the season together."
Dexter, though, did get one better over Joshua in the 4x100m relay, where TP triumphed in 43.25s.
Joshua had crossed the finish line second in the relay, but his NYP team was eventually disqualified for a botched baton handover in the first exchange zone.
That helped the National University of Singapore (NUS) quartet to silver, while SMU took bronze.
TP's relay team was boosted by the return of national sprinter Hariz Darajit, who had a year-long injury layoff after suffering a complete tear to his right anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
"We felt like we had a chance but of course knew it was going to be a tough competition," said Hariz, whose other relay teammates were Dexter, Hafizul Hakim and Yusuf Arsyad. "We just gave our best and everyone ran well."
Though Hariz could only manage sixth place in the 100m final, the 2017 POL-ITE champion with a 10.71s personal best could not be more grateful to be competing on the track again.
He said: "Honestly, I was just waiting for this day since my surgery. It was a long process. Along the way I still had some problems here and there, but in the end I'm thankful that I managed to compete again.
"Obviously it was hard to replicate my previous personal best but slowly, along the way, I can get there."
In the day's other track events, NUS medical undergraduate Ang Chen Xiang capped off his sixth and final appearance in the annual IVP with his fifth straight gold in the men's 110m hurdles, a streak which saw him set a new championship record thrice in the process.
This time, the national record holder (14.36s) equalled his 2017 IVP mark of 14.39s, as NTU duo Awyong Liang Qi and Ang Ding Hui, who is Chen Xiang's younger brother and coach, completed the podium — with the former recording a huge personal best of 14.59s.
As for their female hurdles counterparts, Republic Polytechnic's Rachel Chin triumphed in 16.33s, while NYP's Hannah Esther Tan and Ngee Ann Polytechnic's Caris Lau finished second and third respectively.

It is Friday and my upper body is asking for a break due to the push-ups and extra yoga I've been doing…..this makes me a little nervous for my next workout tomorrow (Valentine's Day), but I love my body enough to give it the gift of health and not quit on my routine. Yesterday I was able to try out my rollerblades and I may give them another whirl this weekend, but you'll hear more about that on Tuesday. Today it's time for a quick review of my Pilates ring on this edition of Fast Friday.
You can read my official review on Amazon of this product here, but here are the 5 big things I'd like to tell you about the Nayoya Pilates Ring – Premium Power Resistance Full Body Toning Fitness Circle.
- The ring is not very sturdy. It has shown serious signs of wear and tear and I've had it less than two months and only have been really using it seriously the last two weeks.
- The pads are too big. When I perform the exercise for my biceps by placing the ring up near my shoulder, it constantly slips because the pads are just too large.
- It doesn't feel nice. The materials are sort of sticky feeling and, as other reviewers noted, it does have a smell (but I don't use it much near my face).
- It isn't very strong. At least one other company that I had hoped to receive a Pilates ring from offers different levels of resistance. This one I would guess is close to the "light" resistance level, but I'm not sure that most people would feel resistance with the ring I have. Perhaps I'm bias as I have used the ones in fitness centers and Pilates studios over the years.
- The cost is not an advantage. The cost of this Pilates ring is advertised as $28.47, but down from a list price of $44.97. NEVER in my wildest dreams would I have paid $45 for this Pilates ring! The two that I have listed below are much better quality and not nearly as costly.
If you're going to purchase fitness equipment for your home, I recommend these three steps:
- Determine if you will actually use it – you know, like the treadmill you've seen at someone's house that doubles as a clothes rack….
- Weigh the cost of the equipment against the cost of joining a facility that has all of the equipment you might want, plus professionals who can answer your questions about using it properly.
- Ask a professional and buy where they do.
Most fitness centers that I have worked for purchase their equipment from companies like PerformBetter and Power-Systems. These are the two places that I investigated getting a new Pilates ring for my future use. They have professional grade equipment at reasonable prices. Check at your local gym and you'll probably find something from either of their catalogs on the fitness floor or in a group exercise studio. Here are the links to the Pilates rings:
PerformBetter Yoga and Pilates Accessories
Power-Systems Pilates Rings
As you can see, comparable price and Power Systems offers three resistance levels. I plan to purchase the firm resistance as that is the one I am used to using at facilities I have taught at. I will keep this one because my son likes to play with it and who doesn't want to encourage their kids to try new exercises?!

Hi M.AMIR,
do you mean the sharepoint infrastructure update from 2008 or a more recent cumulative update?
In my farm, search is working, and the profile imports are successful. i cannot find the error anywhere in the log, despite the fact it comes up as "last log entry".
i have changed the default access account and reset the password but it still comes up with the error. i have removed all import connections, and just added the local domain (normally we import from 8 or 9 domains) but to no avail.
we are patched to december 2009 cumulative update.
the ssp is a backup / restore of the production ssp.
can anyone else not find the error in their logs??
Hi Atilia
Take a look at this page http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/office/sharepointserver/bb735839.aspx
And let me know what and where the error is?

East Vancouver's Rio Theatre is in its final stretch of its campaign to purchase the theatre
You're forgiven if you're confused about the current status of the Rio Theatre.
The fundraising campaign to save the venue has been going on for so many months that operator Corinne Lea told the Georgia Straight in a phone interview that she feels like she's been running a marathon. However, she added that "because this has been such a long process, the hardest part…[has been] making our message really clear".
To back up a bit, the 80-year-old theatre is part of a 6,350-square-foot property at East Broadway and Commercial Drive, which was put up for sale by the owners in January.
Lea and her business partner Jonathan Kerridge offered to buy the theatre and a crowdfunding campaign raised $500,000 by April.
So far, they've raised 75 percent of the $3.9 million needed for the down payment but still need to raise the remaining 25 percent, and are now focussing on investors, in order to close the deal.
Their final deadline is July 7.
Lea said she's aware that there may be audience fatigue from the campaign but is grateful for everyone's patience and support, which has helped to prevent her from burning out herself.
"It is exhausting but the other side of it, which is amazing, because the community is so supportive, I feel like they keep my energy up," she said.
Industry gets involved
Some of that support has been coming from local screen industries.
Vancouver International Film Festival (VIFF) executive director Jacqueline Dupuis said they are still working out how they will support the Rio "while working within confines of not-for-profit budget", but in the meantime, they have been raising awareness among their own audiences about progress of the Rio campaign.
Dupuis explained that as they've witnessed many cinema venues in the city either close down, change focus, or face challenges, they're interested in "ensuring there is appropriate cultural and cinema space in the city" and to address the "shortage of venues that program art-house cinema".
As one of several venues that VIFF uses during its annual festival run, Dupuis said that the Rio, which is the last movie theatre in East Vancouver, helps them to reach an audience they might not otherwise see at their own venue or other venues.
Meanwhile, Vancouver Film School (VFS) marketing director Christopher Bennett said his institution is getting involved for reasons to do with the art of filmmaking. (Although he couldn't disclose details of the deal, they will be acquiring a small percentage of ownership of the Rio.)
"We're not talking about saving the Rio because movies and the moviegoing experience is dying—I would think that's very much the opposite," he said by phone. "Why we're interested in supporting them first and foremost is because they have a demonstrative history of being such fierce protectors of the spirit of indie filmmaking."
Bennett opined that there wouldn't be any blockbusters, iconic film and TV programs, or cult classics without independent filmmaking, which requires venues that will screen such works. Unfortunately, many venues and multiplexes shy away from doing so.
"In a money-driven economy, very few theatres will risk showcasing indie films because they're putting the mass appeal of a film ahead of the importance of that kind of film, and that's what you've got to preserve," he said. "It [saving the Rio] was about preserving an identity that's really important in the evolution of storytelling in film and television."
He also cited the Rio as a place where their students and alumni have shown their first or upcoming works. Perhaps the most famous alum example has been filmmaker Kevin Smith (Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back).
Lea said that Kevin Smith donated his time for two sold-out fundraising shows in March to save the Rio.
"It still blows me away that he even, after having a heart attack, still came out and did that," she said.
Another celebrity supporter has been Vancouver-grown Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool 2), who donated and raised awareness about the campaign.
Yet another celebrity helping hand is on the way.
Hometown funnyman Seth Rogen has pre-recorded a special message that will be presented prior to the fundraising screening of Freaks and Geeks: The Documentary on June 26, in addition to a Skype Q&A with director Brent Hodge (A Brony Tale).
The power of the people
The high-profile support is one aspect that marks this campaign as different from their previous uphill battle to obtain a liquor license, which began in November 2010 and continued into 2012.
Lea said that the campaign for liquor license, which she describes as "extremely stressful" was "a bit more of a desperate kind of experience" because they were facing prospect of theatre going out of business at any moment.
However, she witnessed something invaluable during that time period: how much the community supported them and what the place meant to them.
"One of the things I learned from that campaign, in getting the liquor laws changes, was how powerful our community is," she said.
That's what inspired her idea to get the community to invest in the theatre.
"It actually dawned on me that the community is my partner because they've been with us all the way along and they're the ones that are always there when we need them when we're trying to get something done," she explained.
When asked what her backup plan is if she's unable to reach her financial target, Lea said there isn't a plan B and that failure truly is not option.
"We have come so far with this campaign and fundraising and everything that to give up on it and it would be so much work to have to go back that I can only see going forward," she said.
However, if, ultimately, they are unable to buy Rio, investors will have all of their money, which is being held in trust, returned to them.
She pointed out that she still has a guaranteed three-year lease with an option to renew for another five years after that, but a demolition clause means that a developer can remove her after three years.
In the meantime, investors can still get involved through their equity crowdfunding campaign on Frontfundr or accredited investors can contact Lea directly by email.
Other upcoming fundraisers include an Italian Heritage Month screening of Cinema Paradiso (June 19) and a live podcast taping and movie-interruption screening of Twilight: Breaking Dawn—Part 2 with comedian Doug Benson (June 24) and guests. For full details, visit the Rio Theatre website.

Little Wren Family
Little family of wrens nesting in my late Grandma's ivy plant.
My Grandma loved birds, and I can imagine the happiness it would bring to know her plant was a tiny bird nursery.
According to my research, these little ones should be taking flight two weeks after they hatch, which will be around July 24th.
Unfortunately, I also learned these seemingly sweet, vocal birds can be the worst of neighbors to other species of birds by destroying their eggs and ransacking their nests.
(I certainly wouldn't be telling Grandma about their dark side!)
Nonetheless, I wish this little feathery family the best of luck as they take to the skies in a few days. I'll post photos if I'm lucky enough to catch the moment.
Fly high & enjoy the view,

|Key Terms and Concepts Covered
|Importance of motivation in education; Assumptions of social-cognitive learning theory; Maslow's hierarchy of needs
|Learning is goal directed, self-regulating, internally directed, often vicarious, and reinforcement and punishment effects are indirect; Maslow's pyramid of needs from basic survival need fulfillment to self-actualization
|Bandura's social-cognitive learning theory; attribution theory and expectancy value theory
|Vicarious learning; locus of control and social-cognitive perspective; expectancy and value constructs and how these differ by age, gender and ethnicity
|Goal orientation theory, motivation for learning enhancement and self-efficacy vs. self-concept

|Self-determination theory and motivation in self-regulated learning
|Capacity beliefs, strategy beliefs, control beliefs; self-regulated learning and volition
|Teacher expectations and attributions; learned helplessness in children
|Promoting self-efficacy and productive attributions in the classroom to diminish learned helplessness
1. The Importance of Motivation in an Educational Environment
In this lesson, you'll see how motivation affects learning. Discover the behaviors and perspectives that relate to motivation in an educational environment.
2. Social-Cognitive Learning Theory: Definition and Examples
Have you learned behaviors or skills from observing others? Maybe you have learned from observing a teacher, friend, or supervisor. We acquire new knowledge and skills from a variety of methods. This lesson will introduce the concepts of the social-cognitive theory, which focuses on the learning that occurs within a social context.
3. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: Definition, Theory & Pyramid
Why is it that when some of our needs aren't met, it's almost impossible to concentrate on other ones? Psychologist Abraham Maslow spent his career looking for these answers. Watch this lesson to learn about some of his most important conclusions.
4. Albert Bandura: Social-Cognitive Theory and Vicarious Learning
A person's cognition, environment and behavior play important roles in learning new knowledge and skills. This lesson will focus on Albert Bandura's contributions to social learning and vicarious experiences.
5. Attribution Theory and the Principle of Locus of Control
What do you attribute your successes or failures to? Do you feel like luck and chance are involved, or do you feel like you're in control of your achievements and behavior? This lesson will provide you with an overview of attribution theory and the principles of locus of control.
6. Expectancy Value Theory: Age, Gender & Ethnicity Differences
The values placed on an object or event and our expectancies of performance play a large role in determining the level of effort and ultimately the level of achievement for a given activity. This lesson will detail two popular models of expectancy-value theory and provide suggestions on how to incorporate these theories into a classroom setting.
7. Goal Orientation Theory: How Goals Affect Student Motivation & Behavior
What academic goals do you set for yourself? Are you driven by interest in the academic discipline or by extrinsic factors, such as receiving a higher salary because you have a degree? You may be driven by both. This lesson will explore goals and how they affect student motivation and behavior.
8. Using Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation to Enhance Learning
Why do you want to learn about educational psychology? Do you enjoy reading about different theories and practices? Do you have to pass this class in order to receive a degree? Our behaviors are driven by intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. In this lesson, distinguish between these types of motivation and learn how they can enhance learning.
9. Self-Efficacy vs. Self-Concept: Differences & Effects on Outcome Expectations
How do you perceive yourself? Are you good in a particular academic discipline? Do you like being around others, or do you prefer to spend time alone? The answers to these questions help make up your self-concept and self-efficacy. This lesson will differentiate between these two concepts and explore outcomes of high and low self-efficacy.
10. Self-Determination Theory: Capacity, Strategy & Control Beliefs
How do you stay motivated? What motivates your peers and coworkers? Are rewards motivating factors or do people have an internal drive to persist until a given activity is completed? This lesson will describe a theory that encompasses both intrinsic and extrinsic motivators: the self-determination theory.
11. The Role of Motivation in Self-Regulated Learning
Do you monitor and evaluate your own learning? Do you alter the way you study based on performance on assessments? If so, you are engaging in self-regulation practices and, by doing so, increasing the likelihood of academic achievement. This lesson will define self-regulation, discuss the cyclical process of self-regulation and explore methods to promote self-regulation in the classroom.
12. Teacher Expectations & Attributions
Attributions for success and failure drive future expectations for learning and success. Students attribute their successes or failures to a number of factors. Teachers also make attributions for student performance. This lesson will explore teacher expectations and attributions that affect classroom and individual student performance.
13. Learned Helplessness in Children: Definition
Why do people just give up? Why are some situations deemed hopeless? This lesson will introduce you to the concept of learned helplessness in order to answer the above questions and provide recommendations on dealing with learned helplessness in the classroom.

Your gift will help save orangutan habitat
Land encroachment is a massive threat to the future of the orangutan. Please help us stop them before it's too late.
In the last few years The Orangutan Project has helped protect an extra 93,900 acres of rainforest in the Bukit Tigapuluh ecosystem, creating a vitally important sanctuary for rehabilitated orangutans, and extending the entire protected landscape to more than 494,000 acres of jungle!
But whilst we've taken a massive step forward, we are still battling day and night with illegal land encroachers, who surround our buffer zone and will not stop while there's jungle left to plunder.
But we're not stopping either.
Will you give a regular gift today so we can continue our fight to secure the future for Critically Endangered orangutans? I promise you we need to act fast.
Your gift will go straight to the Bukit Tigapuluh ecosystem in central Sumatra, where we and our partners continue to develop what has now become one of the most successful orangutan rehabilitation and release programs in the world.
More than 170 orangutans have now been reintroduced into protected areas of the forest and many more are working their way through jungle school right now, finally gaining the lives they deserve in the wild.
Even better, numerous rehabilitated and released females have now given birth in this protected ecosystem. This is a wonderful outcome since these females have lost their own mothers and have overcome so much to go on and rear their own offspring in the wild.
But we urgently need to secure more forest if we're to save the orangutan from extinction.
Because as you read these words, vital orangutan habitat throughout Sumatra is being bulldozed. Orangutans are being killed and displaced at a rate they simply cannot regenerate.
With fewer than 14,000 left in the wild, thousands killed each year and a birth rate of just one baby in nine years, the maths is gut-wrenching - Sumatran orangutans will be extinct within the next few years unless we pull out the stops right now.
And today, that's what I'm asking you to do. Please help us secure the future of the orangutan. Your regular gift will make a significant, ongoing difference.
The fact is there is so much more we can be doing – right now.
Your ongoing gift will help us increase the frequency of our Wildlife Protection patrols so they can penetrate deep into unprotected areas of the jungle, exposing illegal logging camps, untangling poachers snares and providing a watchful presence day and night. With a massive 9% of the jungle surrounding our protected area illegally destroyed in just one year, the extended presence our Wildlife Protectors is critical for the survival of orangutans, particularly for the young males who love to roam over vast distances.
Illegal encroachers won't stop, but nor will we.
Land encroachers don't waste a minute in Indonesia – they are insidious and pervasive, working around the clock to illegally clear land for palm and other agricultural development. There is big money to be made in these enterprises – and the only way we can stop them is by expanding our Wildlife Protection Units and being equipped to protect more land as it becomes available.
And with your ongoing help, that's exactly what we're going to do. Our Wildlife Protection Units are a formidable force against the relentless threat of illegal land encroachers, but they also provide vital awareness and education to local communities, guiding them towards sustainable land practices and sharing a genuine respect for their unique wild heritage. Our Wildlife Protectors also play a vital, long term role in monitoring released orangutans, carefully assessing how they are adapting to their new jungle environment over many years.
No one person or organisation can save the orangutan, but together we can.
The Orangutan Project has always worked closely and collaboratively with local and international conservation groups, because we know that's the most effective way to protect Asia's unique wildlife – both now and well into the future.
As an orangutan supporter, you play such a central role in this work, and as we near that tipping point where we know our programs are working but that our time is desperately short, your help becomes more important than ever. With only 14,000 Sumatran orangutans left in the wild, we urgently need to expand our program at Bukit Tigapuluh – and we need your help to do it.
Please give a regular gift and help us win this fight.
Alongside supporting Wildlife Protection Units to protect our 170 released orangutans, your ongoing support help provide around the clock care for the orangutans currently in the Bukit Tigapuluh rehabilitation program and will support ongoing rescue operations, saving countless displaced, injured and illegally caged orangutans every year.
Your ongoing support helps us achieve so much!
$30 a month provides all the fresh food a rescued orangutan needs for that whole month!
$60 a month supports one 24 hour patrol - imagine the lifesaving protection against poachers that provides when hundreds of us join together!
Even $12 a month helps support an orphaned orangutan, making a vital and ongoing contribution towards her daily care, veterinary needs, and jungle school training so she can finally make it back to the wild..
Every orangutan you help rescue makes a difference, because we know the vast majority of orangutans who make it to the Bukit Tigapuluh rescue centre go on to thrive. And this is in spite the horror they've almost certainly experienced beforehand.
Orphaned, displaced or kept in cages as tragically sad trophies, every orangutan in our care has a story to tell. And yet, when they're given a second chance, they take it – quite literally with open arms. And that's what gives me so much hope – every time we provide sanctuary to a rescued orangutan, every time we secure rainforest on their behalf, every time we protect against poachers - we're not only pushing back extinction, we are making a profound difference to a gentle, sentient being.
When you give a regular gift today, you'll be making a difference to hundreds of orangutans. You'll be supporting them to be fully equipped with the skills they need to survive and you'll be making sure the jungle they go on to explore is vast, regenerated and fully protected.
I won't lie to you, this is not an easy task. The encroachers will always be looking for land to develop, the poachers are getting ever more audacious. Every year, we need to raise $673,110 just to fund our Wildlife Protection Units and keep our rescue, rehabilitation and release program at Bukit Tigapuluh at its current capacity.
But I promise you, it is worth it. For every acre of jungle protected, for every orangutan who regains their dignity, safety and their freedom – it is worth it.
Please give an ongoing tax-deductible donation* and together we will save the orangutan from extinction.
* donations in Australia and the USA are tax deductible, in the UK we are registered fof Gift Aid

When was this???
When and which hotel?
@jurrepruiksma_ @jastrzab This is an old spot from 2015
@OJ Had jij deze ook niet gespot in Cannes?
@jurrepruiksma_ @jastrzab yeah, @PetrolPower is right, its a spot from 2015 in Cannes in front of an hotel, but i don't remember the name, sorry
nice picture and amazing car but a 3 years old photo doesn't deserve the spot of the day.
why did you pulish so long after the spot and during the summer hunt ?
unfair regarding jastrzab & Enzo112 who spot all the day for no glory.
@MrSuperCar thank you, and yeah im kinda sorry for jastzrab and enzo.. but what difference is there between uploading it now or 3 years ago? if i uploaded it 3 years ago, there would be another spotter and spot which probably wouldnt get spot of the day 3 years ago. but uploading during summer really wasnt the smartest decision, im sorry for that :/
Episch spotje!

Most of my professors are very helpful, welcoming, passionate about what they teach, and have a lot of energy. I have been able to have a professor remember my name in a class of 150 students and another professor provided a recommendation letter from a class of 20. One of my classes this semester has 6 students, so we all know the professor well and are able to talk with her about her experiences in the field of the discipline. On the other hand, my math professor is never available for questions/answers, is very dull, and you can tell he is not thrilled to be teaching us. It really all depends on the size of your class, what the subject is on, and what time of the day it is. For the most part, the professor at UD are great and have a lot of education and experience behind them.
My professors vary greatly with the different subjects I am taking. I am a Marketing major but I am taking a lot of pre-requisets and university requirements. I have found that a majority of the math professors here are from other countries, which sometimes makes class hard to understand. The teachers I've had in the business school so far have been great. For the classes I need for my major, I have gotten to know some of my professors and regularly go to office hours. For the other classes, I am in lecture halls and do not know the professors. All professors here have to have office hours so they are assessable to their students and I have found that they are always there to help me when I need it.

H.A., I have a prize for you but no way to contact you…please email me at diygeochemist at gmail…
And really? Just 2 entries? You guys could be a little more creative. I can think of a bunch…like:
* Climb to the top of Mt. Everest before falling down dead from exertion
* Go solo backpacking, get eaten by a bear
* Get into a sword-fighting duel with Inigo Montoya
* Get so caught up on swimming underwater with dolphins that you forget to breathe
* Go into space, burn up on re-entry (hopefully instantaneously…)
I guess I've always had a macabre mind. In first grade I got an assignment to write about escaping from prison. In my story, I escaped and got a short distance away, but then I was caught and beheaded. Don't ask me why I love gruesome stuff like that!
As far as I'm concerned, the best way to die is while doing something you love, like watching lightning, in my case: one minute you're happy, the next you're dead. But hopefully, whatever happens, death will be a long way off for me.

A Chester hotel has made a teenager's wish to become a chef come true, two years after he was diagnosed with four brain tumours.
Luke Edison, 13, was chauffeured in to the Grosvenor Hotel in Chester to become a chef for the day thanks to the charity Make-A-Wish UK.
Luke's treatment included four rounds of chemotherapy and 35 rounds of radiotherapy treatment, which finished in June 2015 - he will now be monitored by doctors for the next five years.
Despite everything he has been through, Luke, of Deeside, is passionate about cooking and aspires to be a professional chef. He loves watching cooking programmes such as The Great British Bake Off and his own showstopper is lemon drizzle cake.
Arriving at the city centre five-star hotel Luke was met by Michelin chef Simon Radley.
Simon presented him with a special chef outfit of checkerboard trousers and a white chef's top with his name on it. Luke proudly prepared his family a three course meal of lobster and prawns to start, steak for the main course and a banana and chocolate dessert to finish. The hotel then gave him a framed copy of his menu as a keepsake and a box of luxury chocolates to take home.
Luke's mum Karen said: "The wish made Luke feel very special. Last year was very difficult but the wish was something good that happened to him and it is something that overshadows the difficult times. The whole day was fantastic."
Luke's parents first noticed something wasn't right when he started drinking large volumes of fluid. Following hospital investigations, it was confirmed that Luke had diabetes insipidus – an unusual type of diabetes which can be caused by a brain tumour on the pituitary gland.
Throughout 2014 Luke had several scans which came back clear. But on 19 December 2014, the family received a call from the doctor asking them to come straight to the hospital. Doctors then performed further tests to see if Luke could walk and see straight. It was then that a biopsy confirmed Luke's condition as a brain tumour, in fact four brain tumours. Luke then underwent an operation to insert a shunt into his brain to drain any excess fluid and another to insert a Hickman line into his chest.
Karen continued: "Luke has had a lot to deal with and has been very poorly but it was only at the end of treatment you start to realise the enormity of the situation. Luke is on medication for life now that treatment has finished, which can seem overwhelming, but a wish helps you get on and gives you the drive to stand up and keep going."

text: Hi guys ! Our first day in Puerto Rico was definitely very enjoyable ! We mainly stayed around the condado district in which you'll find where most beach front hotels / restaurants are located. Weather was very great, a good 35 degrees sunny weather all day long except for the part when we were taking a stroll along the beach and it started pouring rain for a good 30 minutes. Should have skipped the shower! Everyone we've come in contact with are super friendly. The food here just makes you want to hibernate and eat all day long. Waiters and waitresses are super attentive and always made the best food and beverage recommendations. So far we are loving Puerto Rico. Our last stop was at the oceano restaurant which is an oceanfront mansion that was made into a restaurant. Excited for our cruise !
