More memories are returning. Im working towards rebelling against my parents! The small child in me is attempting to gain enough love and attention from the present to rebel against my parents from the past! Im attempting to grow up as if I was in a family system that is helping me grow! I am growing from the village, as the village is helping me develop! and its working! its taken a long time! but its worth it!
Getting closer!
Im getting closer to being present and dealing with my feeling locked in from the past! Im horrified by what happened to me! but Im learning as I take chances and practice, that the people in the present are not the people from the past! today, when I think Im having problems with people; I call them back, they call me back! and I keep my friendships! but its hard work so far! Im taking chances with people to be honorable! its not easy!
I call them back and tell them Im there friend and to call me! they end up calling me back! so the damage is repaired! nothing needs to be said, they called back, thats what counts!
Im slowly allowing people in!
At some point my sanity will return! sanity meaning; that thing you all on this site wish for! Heres the deal, Im beyond damaged!
ITs taken 35 years to open up again! I remember the last few years as my original self, and the other years as someone else, and I don't remember those years! everything is reversing! and Im becoming me again!
My mind was crunched! so was my nervous system! so, it remains! Im very weak in the mind! it has been torched and murder'd, and yet, Im awake now! and slowly heading toward interactions of a deeper sort!
I have a God, and Im lucky to be alive, and it has been like being in a Syrian war that I have escaped
Im now in a state of rehab; thats the best way I can describe this! Im very messed up, Im alone, as far as anyone from the past! there is no more past! I\
I have much friends from 12 step groups and other counseling things!
Im looking forward to being more present normal acting! It will take time.

Last night I almost left my guild. I had to literally stand up and walk away from the computer to prevent myself from typing a phrase that I hadn't typed in seven years: /gquit. I didn't want to make a rash, emotional decision that I would regret in the morning. Only when I woke up this morning, after crying myself to sleep yet again, I regretted that I hadn't done it.
Amongst other things, I had it out with one of our officers last night. And after feeling like I was being placed as a scape goat for everything, I flat out told him I would offer a simple solution: I would leave. I mean, let's face it, I haven't been happy in months, I've noted that in multiple venues, including my guild forums – if people were truly unhappy with me it seemed like a win/win solution for everyone. I advised him I wasn't being melodramatic about it, I was truly miserable, tired of dealing with it and I wanted to leave. And I was told that if I did that everything would fall apart and I was needed to keep the guild alive. I found this odd, considering that I was supposedly at the root of all of these problems we are seeing in the guild at the moment.
Which lead me to wonder: If I'm not a replaceable member of our leadership team, why am I treated so poorly by the people I work so hard for day in and day out? Why is it that when I tell people that I'm at the end of my rope, and what is causing me to be there, they continue to perpetrate the exact things that drove me to where I am right now? Why do I feel unappreciated and outright disrespected by many members of our guild? Why do I not feel like I am not welcome or wanted any longer?
I was left with a heavy decision that I thought about while I was showering this morning, as I drove to work and as I booted up my workstation at the office. I was leaning heavily towards leaving, as I removed a few more of the "pros" from a pros/cons list that I've been building in my head for the past two months. And then came the PM that should have never been sent. From a raider that is equally, if not more, emotional that I am at times. A person that I had specifically directed to Brade because I couldn't deal with it anymore. And my resolve eroded.
I wanted out. Now.
I responded less than charitably, because, well, I'm fresh out of charity to give. I'm tired of putting my feelings behind others, often to my detriment. And I'm tired of putting everyone's needs and feelings ahead of mine. I've been doing it for seven years – and people (that I willingly invited into our guild) have unintentionally done to me what a group of people who set out to destroy our guild couldn't do: they have made me want to leave my guild and look for a new place to call home.
I quietly closed my office door and started to weep in earnest. Ashamed and embarrassed that I was this upset over a recreational activity and couldn't control my emotions enough that it was impacting my ability to work – especially when I have always prided myself on being able to bifurcate my personal life and my professional life when I stepped into the office.
I called Brade, looking for direction and advice. Hoping that the person who lovingly strokes my hair as I cry myself to sleep would offer me some semi-objective opinions. When he told me I should leave because I am clearly unhappy, I cried harder. The truth is, I still don't know what I want to do. We talked about it a bit (well, mostly I cried and he tried to make me feel better), ultimately, effective immediately, I abdicated myself from all raid leading responsibilities going forward. (And you are probably learning about this change before half of our guild).
I haven't decided whether or not I'm going to stay and see if things get better with the guild or not. The truth is that my head knows Brade is right – when it gets to the point that I am crying myself to sleep at night and locking myself into the office for the same reasons, it's probably time to move to something that is more healthy for me, regardless of where that leaves the guild. But my heart, lord my heart. It wants what it wants. It slaps on those rose colored glasses and romanticizes about the change that will happen with me stepping back, and tries to convince me that everything will be better now. It doesn't want to walk away and abandon something that I've nurtured for so long.
I don't know where I'll land when this storm settles.
I know that I'm not done with WoW yet, but I do not know if I'll be finishing out my love affair with the game with Monolith. Which is, quite honestly, not something I'd ever thought I'd say and may in the end kill WoW for me, as my guild has been a driving force for me in the game for so long. I have a lot of emotions and thoughts to sort through before I find an answer – and I strongly suspect the atmosphere of the guild over the next few days will play heavily into that decision.
In the end, is it so wrong to want to be happy and have fun again?

Asked by Michelle, Chesapeake, Virginia
I just got a new brand of soft contact lenses today and can't get one of them out. What should I do?
Living Well Expert
Dr. Jennifer Shu
Children's Medical Group
Thanks for your question, and sorry to hear of your troubles. While many people who wear contacts never experience any difficulty with their use, as an occasional contact-lens wearer myself, I've had the same problem nearly every time I've switched brands. First, you can rest assured that all the sides of your eyes are "dead ends" and there is no way the contact lens can be lost behind the eye. Second, if you've made a few attempts and your eye doctor's office is open, it's a good idea to call right away for advice. She may want to check your eyes and remove the lens for you (and possibly suggest a different type of contacts). If it's after hours, the on-call physician may suggest you go to the emergency room for an evaluation and removal, especially if you've tried to remove the contact several times or are experiencing eye pain or redness.
If you've tried to remove the lens only once or twice and your eye is not irritated, it may be helpful to put rewetting drops in the eye and wait several minutes before trying to remove the lens again. Having relatively dry eyes can make contact lens removal difficult, so try to keep your eyes lubricated, especially around the time you plan to take the lenses out.
The traditional technique of taking out contacts involves moving the lens to the outer, lower corner of the eye and then using the thumb and forefinger to pinch it out. Another method is to put one finger on your upper eyelid in the spot where you feel the top of the lens and the thumb on the lower eyelid over the bottom corner of the lens. Apply gentle pressure to the lids while trying to blink the contact out onto a clean towel. Finally, you may also wish to try a small rubber tool designed specifically to remove (or insert) soft contact lenses.
Good luck!

Pistons fall to Wolves in Winnipeg
WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) -- Chase Budinger scored 21 points to lead the Minnesota Timberwolves past the Detroit Pistons 95-76 in a preseason game Wednesday night.
Derrick Williams added 18 points and Nikola Pekovic had 14 for Minnesota. Jose Barea chipped in with seven assists.
Rodney Stuckey scored 21 points for Detroit, and Greg Monroe and Kyle Singler added 11 apiece.
Williams scored 13 points and Pekovic added 10 during an opening burst that gave the Timberwolves a 27-10 lead in the first quarter. Minnesota pushed its lead to 52-29 at the half.
The Pistons showed some life after the break, going on an 8-0 run to close the gap to five. Stuckey scored 13 third-quarter points after putting in eight in the opening half.
The Timberwolves bounced back to stretch their lead to 68-53 entering the fourth and were in control throughout the final quarter.

Japan loses to Jordan in World Cup qualifying
Jordan stunned Japan 2-1 in a World Cup qualifier Tuesday, denying the Asian power the chance to become the first team secure a berth in Brazil.
Khalil Baniateyah headed home the opening goal from a corner just before halftime. After the break, Japan pressed for the equalizer that would have been enough for it to qualify for the World Cup after Australia drew 2-2 with Oman. But Jordan doubled its lead in the 60th when Ahmad Hayel Ibrahim grabbed a loose ball near midfield, darted past two defenders and chipped it past a sprawling Eiji Kawashima who seemed caught off guard by his zigzag run down the field.
Manchester United's Shinji Kagawa pulled one back for Japan eight minutes later, taking a nifty backheel pass from Hiroshi Kiyotake and firing it past the keeper. Japan then seemed to be on the verge of the draw in needed when Atsuto Uchida earned a penalty three minutes later after he collided with a defender in the area.
But Yasuhito Endo had his spot kick saved by Jordan keeper Amer Sabah.
Japan, which remains six points clear of second-place Jordan, will have to wait until June for another chance to clinch a spot in Brazil when it plays Iraq. The win for Jordan is bad news for Australia, which is a point further back in third, with the top two teams earning automatic qualifying spots.
"We had a mission and we succeeded,'' said Jordan's Coach Adnan Hamad, whose team was humbled 6-0 by Japan earlier in qualifying.
"It was a high-level match from both teams and we did our best and managed to play against one of the best teams,'' he said. "Amer Shafee saved us from a very hard position and the team's spirit was really at its best. I thank everyone for this win.''
Japan's coach Alberto Zaccheroni credited Jordan with a strong performance but acknowledged that Japan should have done better with its chances, especially in the early part of the second half when it dominated possession.
"It is too bad we lost a penalty but it happens,'' he said. "We had several chances to score but without success. We lost a chance to qualify early but still it was a good match.''

1. how to remove file from guvnor.camel1cz Jan 20, 2011 6:36 PM (in response to tomathome)
You can use File/Import/Guvnor/Resources from Guvnor to get latest version of files into your eclipse project.
However if you delete them using eclipse, they dissapear from guvnor and you're not able anymore to import them, but they are still there somehow - govnor will not accept the same file anymore saying "already exists"...
I guess it's a feature protecting depending items from loosing their data...
As I understand it, the recommended way is to develop a resource package in clean guvnor and then transfer the whole package and deploy it...
I'm new here and still learning so hope I'm not wrong too much
2. how to remove file from guvnor.tomathome Jan 21, 2011 3:35 AM (in response to camel1cz)
Hi @Kamil,
thanks for the help, I hope it will work. I have been opened the guvnor repository in the "Dolphin" file explorer and could see all the files inside. Removing of the files was also possible, unfortunatelly all the files were back after refresh :-( So the guvnor webdav interface seems not to be standard implementation.
I checked it and can approve, that the removed files from guvnor repository cannot be put there again with the same filename. I will search for the solution for this. One way i will try is to find the embedded database, check the structure and maybe remove the files directly from the database.
3. how to remove file from guvnor.camel1cz Jan 21, 2011 4:12 AM (in response to tomathome)
after you'll find out how to deal with the files in guvnor, please let me/us know... I'm interested in this issue.
I'm currently still just playing with the jBPM5 and have tons of other issues to solve, but it's an important one.
4. how to remove file from guvnor.krisverlaenen Jan 25, 2011 7:49 PM (in response to tomathome)
You can't really delete a file from guvnor, as it is a versioned repository, it keeps track of older versions. You can however archive a file, which means it is no longer there in the latest version, but still exists as an older version.
5. how to remove file from guvnor.jeffdelong Jan 25, 2011 8:56 PM (in response to krisverlaenen)
Once the file is Archived, you can use the Admin Archive capabilities to delete (or restore) the file from the repository. Unless you perform this step, you will not be able to add a file with the same name.

DataWind, the vendor of India's low-cost Aakash tablet, said it was not under any contractual obligation to assemble the product in India.
The company's CEO Suneet Singh Tuli said in a telephone interview Tuesday that he challenged any potential competitor to deliver a similar device with warranty and accessories at its rupees 2263 (US$40.7) price to the Indian government.
Tuli was reacting to newspaper reports that said DataWind had imported tablets designed and manufactured in China, and shipped them to the government.
The Aakash tablet, which is into its second version, has been touted as an Indian innovation that will bridge the digital divide in the country, starting with the education sector.
Rivals India and China have a longstanding border dispute, and the possibility that Chinese companies were involved in the tablet's manufacture is expected to be a sore point, particularly as the Indian government plans to showcase Aakash at a meeting at the United Nations on Wednesday.
The Indian government was not immediately available for comment.
Tuli said that some 10,000 units supplied to the government were imported as kits that included motherboards made to the company's specifications and capacitive touchscreens made by DataWind at its facility in Montreal and then assembled in India. "Our business model is similar to that of Apple where we use subcontract manufacturers to build our products," Tuli said in a statement over the weekend.
While he is committed to promoting the development of manufacturing capabilities in India, there was no requirement in the contract from the government to make the tablets in India, he said.
Aakash has been dogged by controversy, delays and complaints of poor performance ever since it was launched in October last year by the Indian government. The Android tablet project was hit by disputes between DataWind and a government-run educational institute over test criteria, and later a dispute with its contract manufacturer.
The company has meanwhile updated the device to the second-generation Aakash 2, which has a 7-inch capacitive multitouch screen and a single-core, 800MHz ARM Cortex-A8 processor, faster than the earlier 366MHz processor.
About 7,000 units of its first version Aakash 1 and another 13,000 units of the Aakash 2 have been delivered to the government, Tuli said. The delivery of the rest of the 100,000 units of the government order is to be completed by December. "We may ask for some extra time," Tuli said.
DataWind has also been selling the devices directly to Indian consumers under the UbiSlate brand. Over 300,000 devices have already been shipped, with some orders pending, Tuli said. Some of the devices supplied to consumers were fully assembled in China, he added.
The company has set up an assembly facility in India besides contracting to local manufacturers, Tuli said. The company will also be making the touchscreens in India at a facility that is expected to be running by December. It has taken time for the manufacturing ecosystem to develop, he added.

system freeze when using multiple sounds and stopping sounds.
Version is raspbian scratch.
Difficult to reproduce. The application plays two sounds; now and then the app 'stop all sounds'.
Happened quite often on one system of six, the only difference in the scratch app was the usage of sounds. In the scratch application, there is a button which stops/restarts sounds. As I remembered current sound problems in new scratch Tim Rowledge works on, I removed the second sound and the stop sounds.
From this point on, the system was stable for the next two hours. Before, it crashed every five minutes.

Smile in your sleep текст песни
When I'm lying in your bed play the motions through my head
you know that I'm thinking, I'm thinking...
and I have reasons to believe that I'm not the only
one you spend this time with, but I'll stay...
You say, you're weak,
you wont let me down
you lie through your teeth
you smile in your sleep
When we met you said we were the same, you know
that we're different, we're different,
and all the times you promised me that everything would
work out in the end, you were gravely mistaken
You lie, you lie through your teeth
you wont let me down, you lie
I deserve better than this
I dream of steel.
Maroon and warm, your end.
You gasp for air. I'll see this through,
I'll see through you, your pale blue eyes.
When you're lying in your bed, your eulogy's been read
You know that it's fitting, you lie.
You smile I deserve better than this

| 2.8°C Belfast
The Billboard Music Awards can use a hologram of dead pop icon Michael Jackson at this weekend's show, rejecting efforts from tech companies seeking to block the digital performance.
Judge Kent Dawson said there was not enough evidence to show the planned 3-D image would violate patents held by Hologram USA and Musion Das Hologram.
The companies own rights to technology known for digitally resurrecting deceased rapper Tupac Shakur at the 2012 Coachella music festival.
"The court's decision is not surprising," said lawyer Howard Weitzman, who represented Michael's estate.
"The request to stop this extraordinary Michael Jackson event was ludicrous."
Plans to use the hologram during the show tomorrow emerged with the lawsuit, but were not confirmed until the hearing yesterday afternoon.
Show producers had been promoting only a "history-making performance" at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena that would promote the singer's latest posthumous album, Xscape.
Hologram USA and Musion said in their emergency lawsuit on Thursday that one of their products was being used without authorisation by a competitor to create a segment that depicts Michael performing a new song, Slave To The Rhythm.
Lawyer Michael Feder, representing the show and Jackson estate, filed a response yesterday, saying the holographic performance had been planned for months and was discussed with Alki David, who owns the rights to the technology that creates and projects lifelike images to appear alongside live performers through Hologram USA and Musion.
The plaintiff's lawyer Ryan Baker said his clients were disappointed with the ruling, but the lawsuit will continue.
"It's only the very beginning of a case that will continue to be prosecuted by my clients, and ultimately they are confident that they will prevail and will recover all available damages for the defendants' infringing conduct," he said.
Hologram USA obtained the rights to the patents after the bankruptcy of Florida effects house Digital Domain, which created the Shakur image to wide acclaim two years ago.
In March, Hologram USA sued Cirque du Soleil and MGM Resorts International over its show Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay Hotel & Casino.
The show features a performance by a digital rendition of Michael, which the company also contends is an unlicensed use of its technology.
The case is being handled in a Los Angeles court and Cirque du Soleil and MGM Resorts have been granted an extension until May 23 to respond to the lawsuit.

Cars are useful for lots of things, like getting us from point A to point B and giving us the means to do donuts in a high school parking lot while we blast "Carry On Wayward Son" at an extremely high volume.
But as this South African TV Candid Camera-type show discovered in the late 1970s, cars are also useful at playing pranks on people. The hosts put some cash under the tire of a Volkswagen Type 3 Squareback wagon, then remotely set off the horn at the unsuspecting rubes who try to remove it.
The best part comes towards the end when people start ripping the front fender off after the hosts "doctor" the car a bit. Or maybe the Type 3s were just made that way. One guy was even able to lift the car up himself to get the money, so their build quality couldn't have been that great.

In southern states, between October 2 and mid-October:
In Massachusetts during October:
The National Rabies Management Program was established in recognition of the changing scope of rabies in which the primary human risk is now due to exposure from wildlife rather than domestic pets. The goal of the program is to prevent the further spread of wildlife rabies and eventually eliminate terrestrial rabies in the United States through an integrated program that includes vaccinating wildlife against the disease.
Oral rabies vaccination baits are coated with a fishmeal attractant and may be packaged in one-inch square cubes or two-inch plastic sachets. For photos of the vaccination baits, please visit www.aphis.usda.gov/wildlife_damage/oral_rabies/photo_gallery.shtml.
The Raboral V-RG® vaccine has been shown to be safe in more than 60 different species of animals, including domestic dogs and cats. Humans and pets cannot get rabies from contact with the baits, but are asked to leave them undisturbed should they encounter them. Dogs that consume large numbers of baits may experience an upset stomach, but there are no long-term health risks. If contact with baits occurs, immediately rinse the contact area with warm water and soap.
Rabies is caused by a virus that infects the central nervous system in mammals. Signs suggestive of rabies include unusual, aggressive or calm and "friendly" behavior, an inability to eat or drink, balance problems, circling, seizures, coma and finally death. While rabies is fatal, human exposures can be successfully treated, if treatment is sought immediately following a bite.
Since 1995, WS has been working cooperatively with local, state and federal governments, universities and other partners to address this public health problem by distributing oral rabies vaccination baits in targeted areas. This cooperative program targets the raccoon variant in the eastern United States, and unique variants of rabies in coyotes and foxes in Texas.
For additional information concerning the raccoon oral rabies vaccine program, please visit www.aphis.usda.gov/wildlife_damage/oral_rabies/index.shtml or contact WS toll free at 1-866-4-USDA-WS (1-866-487-3297).
With Agriculture Secretary Vilsack's leadership, APHIS works tirelessly to create and sustain opportunities for America's farmers, ranchers and producers. Each day, APHIS promotes U.S. agricultural health, regulates genetically engineered organisms, administers the Animal Welfare Act, and carries out wildlife damage management activities, all to safeguard the nation's $157 billion agriculture, fishing and forestry industries. In the event that a pest or disease of concern is detected, APHIS implements emergency protocols and partners with affected states and other countries to quickly manage or eradicate the outbreak. To promote the health of U.S. agriculture in the international trade arena, APHIS develops and advances science-based standards with trading partners to ensure America's agricultural exports, valued at more than $137 billion annually, are protected from unjustified restrictions.

LONDON, Ont. - Of the roughly 8,000 kinds of mushrooms that grow in Canada, only a handful are carried in most grocery stores.
Just seven species — white button, cremini, portobello, shiitake, oyster, king oyster and enoki mushrooms — are farmed here, says Shannon Bryan, marketing and digital content co-ordinator for Mushrooms Canada, an umbrella organization based in Guelph, Ont., that includes all 40 commercial growers across the country.
It is very difficult to duplicate the medium in which many mushrooms grow, says Jonathan Forbes, owner of Forbes Wild Foods in Toronto, which gathers and sells all kinds of foraged foods nationwide.
"All mushrooms have a symbiotic relationship with where they're growing," he says. "Sometimes it's connected to the roots of the trees; sometimes it's in the soil."
For example, growers have not been able to replicate the terroir of morels (in season now) or chanterelles, two popular species. However, they and many other wild mushrooms are available, often in dried form, from firms such as Forbes' or at farmers markets and specialty grocery stores.
Of the 8,000, "probably a couple of hundred are edible," Forbes says, although edible may not mean tasty. "There are probably about 50 that are really good to eat."
Ontario growers produce about 55 per cent of the Canadian commercial crop, Bryan says, followed by B.C., the Prairies, Quebec and the Maritimes. Most of it goes straight to the consumer market.
"The whites and the browns, both cremini and portobello, are the biggest crops, and then the specialties would be grown in smaller amounts."
As for taste, white, cremini, shiitake and portobello mushrooms are described as "woodsy," "meaty" or "earthy." Cremini have a slightly more intense flavour than white, shiitake have a "soft, spongy quality," says Mushrooms Canada, and portobello, because they are so large, lose some of their moisture, giving them a meaty texture.
Oyster, king oyster and enoki mushrooms have a more "delicate" or "mild" taste. Oyster mushrooms have a "velvety" texture, king oysters are described as "chewy" and remain firm when cooked and the exotic-looking enoki have a "slight crunch."
All are extremely versatile. They can be served raw or cooked and go well with most seasonings, says the Mushrooms Canada website.
To microwave whole or thickly sliced mushrooms, put 200 to 250 grams (seven to eight ounces) in a dish, cover and cook on high for two to three minutes, stirring once. No butter or oil is required.
Large-cap mushrooms such as portobello, shiitake and jumbo whites can be grilled or broiled — four to six minutes per side and the mushrooms should be brushed with oil at the beginning and once or twice while cooking to keep them moist.
To roast, place mushrooms in a shallow baking pan, toss with 15 ml (1 tbsp) of oil and roast in a 230 C (450 F) oven for about 20 minutes.
"The most commonly gathered wild mushrooms in Canada are morels, chanterelles and pine mushrooms or matsutake," says Forbes. Most of the matsutake are exported to Japan.
Forbes usually has 20 to 30 varieties of wild mushrooms a year. Among the earliest are pheasant back mushrooms, which grow on dead elms, followed by morels and early chanterelles, usually in July.
King boletus mushrooms, also called porcini or ceps, grow from Newfoundland and Labrador to B.C. and into the far north. There are also black trumpet and lobster mushrooms, blue chanterelles "and a winter chanterelle, also called the yellowfoot, which you can sometimes buy right up until November."
"Most wild mushrooms have a fair bit of flavour," says Forbes.
Black trumpets are "really aromatic, so if you put them in a soup or a stew, you're really going to know." Pheasant back "smell very much like watermelon." Chanterelles have "almost an apricot flavour" and go well with chicken. "Black trumpet and morels would probably be better with steak."
He thinks that in a few years, the medicinal properties and health benefits of mushrooms will be a "big story" in North America.
"Mushrooms have always been recognized as medicines in places like Japan, Korea and China and somewhat in Europe," he says.
An extract of maitake mushrooms, for example, is said to boost the immune system and limit or reverse tumour growth. Promoters claim it also enhances the benefits of chemotherapy and lessens some side-effects of anti-cancer drugs, such as hair loss, pain and nausea. No definitive scientific confirmation has been found yet, but research is underway.
"We were taught when we were kids that mushrooms were basically worthless, had no food value. Well, they've found the opposite."
But he warns that many kinds of mushrooms contain poisons that can make you very sick or are hallucinogenic and there are about eight kinds that are fatal.
"So people have to be very careful about it and never pick anything that they don't know exactly what it is.
"Mushrooms also take on heavy metals, so you don't want to pick them near any industrial site or highway or hydro corridor or train tracks. It's just not going to be good for you."
There are many written and online resources about identifying wild mushrooms. Mycological societies (groups with an interest in wild mushrooms and other fungi) and other experts often guide the uninitiated on mushroom-picking forays into rural areas.

An 11-year-old girl who was hit by a stray bullet as she walked out of her New York City home last month is slowly starting to show signs of recovery.
Tayloni Mazcyk has been recovering at New York Presbyterian Hospital and with the help of her nurses, sat up for the first time Thursday, the first glimmer of hope the girl may not be permanently paralyzed.
Tayloni, lovingly called Tutu by her parents, still has the bullet lodged in her spine. The girl was waiting for her aunt outside her Bedford-Stuyvesant home in Brooklyn the evening of Friday, May 31, when a gunman walking down the street opened fire at two men standing outside of another residence, police said.
A stray bullet pierced Tayloni's throat, ricocheting down her spine before lodging in her back.
Despite the pain, Tayloni is fighting to recover her mobility.
"It was very painful for her [to sit up] but she's trying so hard," said Priscilla Samuel, the girl's mother.
Samuel travels daily from Bedford-Stuyvesant to Washington Heights to be at her daughter's bedside. She said the girl has constant nightmares about the shooting.
"She doesn't want to come back to where we live, and she doesn't want to come outside anymore," said Samuel. "Why should she be afraid to come outside?"
The weekend Tayloni was shot was a violent one: 25 other people were also shot across the city. Bloomberg said at the time that despite the burst of violence, New York City has witnessed the least gun violence in a decade.
It did little to console Tayloni's mother and father, who are praying she will walk again.
"My baby is laying up in the bed with a gunshot wound to her neck, but there's no gun violence going on over here? Be real," said Samuel.
Tayloni, who had been scheduled to graduate from fifth grade at P.S. 44 this month, is soon expected to be moved to NYU Rusk Rehabilitation Center for long-term rehab. Tayloni's mother lost her job before her daughter was shot, and her father is struggling with a part-time job; both are worried about Tayloni's long-term care, given her prognosis.
In the meantime, the parents are hoping to see an end to the gun violence and said they want the mayoral candidates to present a plan to curb it.
A 17-year-old boy was arrested in connection with the shooting.

The AILA Military Assistance Program (MAP) is a collaborative effort between the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) and the Legal Assistance Offices (LAO) of the United States military Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps. The LAOs provide free assistance to active duty service-members and their families in order to maintain the highest level of readiness possible in the event that a military member is deployed. Recently, however, JAG attorneys have been inundated with complex immigration legal questions. To resolve these cases successfully, they often need the assistance of seasoned immigration attorneys. AILA MAP has brought these two groups together to form a truly dynamic and effective partnership.
Since the inception of this worthy program in 2008, our priority has been to provide invaluable resources, knowledgeable pro bono legal counsel, and peace of mind to these courageous men and women of the United States Armed Forces while honoring the selfless commitment which they have made to the continued protection of our nation and the freedoms we enjoy on a daily basis.

UserSpace Access
the buzzer on the carrier board can be accessed from userspace via the sysfs interface. example interfaces are in the directory marked /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input:input1. the directory include a file entry "beep" and "duration". to generate a beep echo a non zero value to the beep file entry:
echo 4096 > /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input\:input1/beep
a tone will be generated for the length set in the duration file. to see what the current value is do:
cat /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input\:input1/duration
the duration is measured in .01 seconds, i.e. a value of 100 is 1 second. if the value of duration is set for zero, the tone will be generated continuously until a zero value is echo'd to the beep entry:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input\:input1/duration echo 4096 > /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input\:input1/beep (tone generated) echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/tct_hammer-beeper.0/input\:input1/beep (tone stops)

I posted this question a week ago. Although I got one reply, I was wondering
if anyone else could help. To recap, I ran my VB6 project through the VB.NET
Upgrade Wizard. When it was done, the Task List only showed the first 102
errors and that 'the maximum number of errors has been exceeded'. I want
to know the exact number of errors. There's a big difference upgrading a
project with 150 errors versus a project with 5,000 errors. Is there a way
to know the exact number of errors?
If this can't be changed, this is a major show-stopper with the Upgrade Wizard.

Pakistani intelligence officials and militant sources said Badruddin Haqqani, the network's head of operations who is also believed to handle its vital business interests and smuggling operations, may have been killed during the strike this week in Pakistan's tribal North Waziristan.
One senior Pakistani intelligence official said Badruddin had fled a compound that he and other militants were in after it was hit by a missile, then was killed by a second drone strike on a car that he was in.
However, Maulvi Ahmed Jan, a senior Haqqani network commander, denied Badruddin had been killed. He said a distant relative, 13-year-old Osama, was killed in the strike and his funeral had been mistaken by locals for Badruddin's.
The insurgents would soon provide proof that Badruddin was alive, Jan said.
"We have proudly announced before when our people died in action or in drone strikes. Jihad against the occupying forces in Afghanistan is our mission and death is certain in fighting them. Why would we keep it secret?" he said.
Afghanistan's Taliban movement, allies of the Haqqani network, also said Badruddin was alive.
There was no official word on Badruddin's fate from the network. Other intelligence officials were cautious.
"Our informers have told us that he has been killed in the drone attack on the 21st but we cannot confirm it," said one of the Pakistani intelligence officials.
If Badruddin's death is confirmed, it could deal a major blow to the Haqqanis, one of the United States's most feared enemies in Afghanistan.
The Haqqanis are the most experienced fighters in Afghanistan and the loss of one of the group's most important leaders could ease pressure on NATO as it prepares to withdraw most of its combat troops at the end of 2014.
"We are 90 percent sure that he was in the same house which was attacked with a drone on Tuesday," said another Pakistani intelligence official.
Sources close to the Haqqqani network also said Badruddin was believed to be in the house, hit by a drone strike as militants were planting explosives in a vehicle meant to be used for an attack on NATO forces in Afghanistan.
"The drone fired two missiles on the house last Tuesday and killed 25 people, most of them members of the Haqqani family," one of the sources said.
Pakistani Taliban and tribal sources said they believed Badruddin was killed in the drone attack.
One of Badruddin's relatives said he was alive and busy with his "jihad activities".
"Such claims are baseless," he told Reuters. Another relative told Reuters that Badruddin was "alive and well".
A series of drone strikes in North Waziristan this week suggest the CIA, which remotely operates the aircraft, was after a high-value militant target in the unruly area.
The deaths of militants in such strikes are difficult to confirm as they often occur in areas of regions in the northwest such as North Waziristan that are hard for authorities to reach.
U.S. officials blame the al Qaida-linked network for some of the boldest attacks in Afghanistan, including one on embassies and parliament in Kabul in April which lasted 18 hours, killing 11 Afghan security forces and four civilians.
The United States accuses Pakistan's intelligence agency of supporting the Haqqani network and using it as a proxy in Afghanistan to gain leverage against the growing influence of its arch-rival India in the country.
Militant groups from Afghanistan and Pakistan have formed alliances and often cross the porous border for operations.
A NATO air strike in eastern Afghanistan has killed a commander of the Pakistani Taliban, both NATO and the Taliban said on Saturday.
Both sides identified the dead commander as Mullah Dadullah and said several of his comrades were also killed in the attack on Friday.
A NATO statement did not say who carried out the assault, but the alliance is alone in having the air power to conduct such an operation. It said Dadullah's deputy, Shakir, was also killed.
"Dadullah, also known as Jamal, was responsible for the movement of fighters and weapons, as well as attacks against Afghan and coalition forces," the statement said.
It said Afghan and coalition forces backing the Kabul government had "conducted a post-strike assessment" and found that there had been no civilian casualties or damage to civilian property.
Pakistani Taliban officials, as well as Pakistani intelligence officials said Dadullah had been killed in a house in eastern Konar province, along with 12 bodygards. They said he was the leader of the Taliban in Pakistan's Bajaur tribal agency, near the border with Afghanistan.
Dadullah, in his 40s, replaced Maulvi Faqir Mohammad last year after Mohammad told the media that the Taliban were holding peace talks with the government.
The Pakistani Taliban, committed to the same Islamist principles as the Taliban ousted from power in Kabul in 2001, replaced Mohammad with Dadullah to undercut the secret negotiations, Taliban commanders say.
Some Pakistani Taliban fighters and commanders were forced to flee into Afghanistan after the Pakistani army launched a series of offensives against them in 2008 and 2009.
But they still carry out cross-border raids on Pakistani armed forces. In June, the Pakistani Taliban said they beheaded 17 Pakistani soldiers in a cross-border raid.

I'm hopeless with band names, which is why I failed to see the hilarity in calling a cafe Fleetwood Macchiato. Surely fleet was just a type of wood, and macchiato is just a type of coffee? Apparently not. So after much third-party chortling, and secret Googling, I finally enlightened myself on the British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac. In my defence, these guys were famous in the '70s, way before my time. But then again, so was ABBA. Moving on.
If there's a skill I do possess (they are few and far between), it's a nose for good cafes. And so it was that on a sunny Sunday morning, I found myself alighting at Erskineville station, on my way to the aforementioned cafe.
The cafe feels nice and homey, with sun-soaked wooden tables and benchtops bathed in buttery golden light.
I love handwritten labels in cafes. The food instantly feels more special, as if it's been handmade, not mass produced. You get slightly misshapen muffins, loaves with an extra edge, and flourless chocolate cakes that have sunk just a little too much in the middle. It's like the difference between an email and a postcard. Nothing compares to that feeling of excitement you get when you open the mailbox and out flies a tattered piece of cardboard shipped all the way from Siberia, with two foreign stamps squashed in the corner, handwriting that gets progressively smaller towards the edge of the postcard, and a long stream of xoxoxoxoxox's scrawled in haste across the bottom of the card as its sender returns hastily to her holiday.
Decapitated beer bottles are given a second life as drinking cups. Again, that rustic, resourceful, homemade feel. Genius.
Baked eggs with Napoli and pangritata, served with a side of sourdough. H had this, so I can't tell you what it tasted like, but I have a feeling that consumption time and tastebud satisfaction are inversely related. So judging by the nanoseconds it took for the meal to be eaten, I'm guessing that its eater rather enjoyed it.
Pangritata is a peasant substitute for Parmesan cheese; a curious medley of stale bread, herbs, and garlic, crushed together and fried until crisp and golden. A great topping for any meal.
Little Rippler - fresh orange, mango and raspberry juice. Beautiful swirls of colour, and a delicious flavour combination! A great way to start the morning :) It actually made me a little nostalgic; it reminded me of painting in primary school, when you'd dip your paintbrush into a jar of water and watch the swirls of paint float around like genies.
Smashed Egg Breakfast Roll with mustard aioli, sriracha, pickles avocado and ham. I love that it was just as smashed as the name suggests. The throwing together of ingredients, hearty and whole, the flavours colliding and headbutting like nothing else. It was a beastly textural mess: soft, runny egg yolk; firm, chewy ham; creamy avocado, sour aioli, all in a crunchy baguette shell. Mmmm.
Roasted mushrooms & zucchini on house made corn tortilla with achiote butter topped with a poached egg. Again, judging by the nanoseconds in which this meal was consumed, and the silence that descended (interrupted only by the sound of contented chewing), I do believe that J enjoyed her meal. It certainly looked good.
A cabinet of sunshine.
There is something irresistably cute about jam jars. So solid and reliable, sitting on their flat behinds. And so snug and safe with their air-tight lids. They know they've got the goods.
So if you're wandering down Erskineville Road, and you're not looking for a ship or a band, but simply a place to put up your feet and enjoy a good cup of coffee and a hearty meal, Fleetwood Macchiato is the place to be.
Until next time.

Intro: Group Agreement
Yas went over the terms of the meeting and everyone agreed to them. She then explained how the meeting would work and what the bike rack was for, i.e., putting issues we don't have time to discuss on the bike rack 'til the next meeting.
Yas then asked the group if there was anything else they wanted to add or change in the Agenda. Ryan suggested adding the Festival.
We all took part in the circle game to find out everyone's names, then broke off into three smaller groups to discuss the Aims of the Volunteer Meeting.
Each group had a brainstorming session based on the following three questions. Here is their answers:
What does the Forest mean to you?
- A lifestyle!
- Lots laugh - international people
- A platform for people to come and learn, and put on workshops etc.
- Arts community - social group
- Cultural exchange
- Cafe and space
- Support network - interesting
- Dirty toilets
- Music and arts - volunteer and serving
- generosity
- surprising nature and dynamic
- Free Space - What does this mean?
- Autonomous
- Alternative to mainstream society
- Evolving - cheap and original food
- Relax atmosphere and no authority
- Hippies...?
- Mutual responsibility
- A living example of how alternative ways of organising can work
- Chaos
- Many meetings, little progress, some mistakes repeated
- Not having enough money
- The ability to do whatever you want that isn't harmful
What would you like to see happen more / less at the Forest?
- Better lighting, specifically kitchen
- Fix up workroom / darkroom

- Less of superior attitude
- Fewer strange folk

- More hours for Old Hat Books
- Continuity of vision
- Less people taking advantage of the space
- More availability of information (more open)
- More structured aims to working groups (so things get done)
- Using the cafe space less as a cafe and more as an adventurous art space
- More cool events (fewer bad ones?) - But, if it's free to perform and the Forest offers them a place to learn to play - this is the purpose of the Forest
- More involvement together
- Being open to new people and ideas
- More variety of food
- Fruit smoothies?
What would you like to get out of Vollie meetings?
- More focus on this is Our space - everyone to be part of activity in cafe

- See the result of these aims (hopefully!)
- Brief summary of working group meetings
- Accessible and welcoming for new vollies
- Stronger sense of Forest community - growing together (we're not just a cafe)
- Addressing people's concerns and questions - FFAUQ
- Finding out everyone's different roles and responsibilities
- Action!?! Space for 'Big Discussions' (like we did for becoming non-smoking)
- Better distribution of information - clearer!!!
- Blind man's bluff. BIG LISTENING
- Problems addressed frankly and respectfully
- For volunteers to be able to bring big, random proposals
- An avenue to welcome volunteers nicely
- Give people spaces for their vollies to be heard
- Website - please add pictures, more up-dates
- Use website, agenda in cafe and other means to carry out the conversations - meetings are short and to the point
The group then re-formed and had a look at what we had all written, then we moved on to Other Stuff:
Working Groups
The Forest runs according to a working group structure. There are five main working groups. People explained a bit about what each working group is responsible for:
Matias began by talking a bit about what the Cafe & Events Working Group does, i.e.,volunteering, events and promotions, film night, kitchen - health & safety, building and maintenance, sound engineering etc.
Stephen P spoke a bit about what the Artist's Facilities Working Group does, i.e., Screen printing workshops, darkroom & photography, publishing & library, computers, equipment etc.
Yas described the Action Working Group which deals with all aspects of community action, bikes, crafty room, environment & garden, workshops etc.
Milk explained what the Behind the Scenes Working Group does, i.e., all aspects of business and charity admin, projects and grants, shop, website etc.
Lastly there is the Visual Arts Working Group which deals with the Total Kunst Gallery, all aspects of visual art and front of house issues.
All of this information can be found in the Forest Volunteer Guide 2009 - 'Don't Panic'. It can also be found on our website and on the big poster in the red room (first room as you enter the Cafe).
Alcohol licence
In order to give the group a clear idea of why the Forest is applying for an alcohol licence, Ryan began by explaining our relationship with our landlords, Edinburgh University Settlement (E.U.S).
The Forest started off in really small premises in West Port in August 2000. In 2004 (approx.) we became involved with E.U.S. and they housed us in our current premises on Bristo Place. To begin with we occupied a smaller part of the building than we do now. However, over the years the Forest has spread out over the whole building using all the spaces for our artist's facilities.
E.U.S are very supportive of the Forest and count us as one of their most successful projects. For the last five years or so E.U.S have subsidised the Forest by charging us a minimal rent for the building, meaning that the Forest costs them a very large amount of money per year. As a result, E.U.S. have had to look into other options, one of them being selling the building to someone else.
At the same time E.U.S offered us the space that the Bowery bar now has. However, the Forest Working Group members decided it would be a shame if we had to lose a lot of our spaces, like the gallery and other artists facilities, as this would change the face of the Forest too much. (The Forest Working Group decide all the other stuff that falls outside the remit of the regular working groups, i.e., the bigger issues and responsibilities involved in running the Forest).
One way to stabilise our position in Bristo Place is to apply for an alcohol licence. We would then be able to pay E.U.S. a decent rent as well as making the building more valuable. It would also mean that we would have more money to put into upgrading and maintaining the building and our artist's facilities - thus retaining what the Forest is all about (our charitable objectives).
We began the process of applying for the liquor licence around ten months ago. We have appeared at the Licensing court three times now, tomorrow being our fourth appearance. Ryan explained how if we got refused on the issue of overprovision, this would mean that the people who want to buy our building would be more reluctant to do so.
(Overprovision = overprovsion of licensed premises in the Cowgate/Grassmarket area).
However, there is a possibility that we might eventually get the licence. Ryan explained how this would change the way we operate. Volunteers also asked how having the licence might affect them.
Osama asked if we would be getting a licence for our first floor function hall. Ryan confirmed that we are applying to licence the whole building, both upstairs and downstairs.
Radek asked whether the volunteers would receive training. Lynne confirmed that volunteers will receive training in all aspects of selling alcohol and licensing law.
Stephen M asked what the obstacles were that we had to get over in order to get the licence. Ryan and Lynne explained the issues around the building and what building works we will have to carry out to comply with the Council and Police.
(We have been to the Licensing Court today and our application has been deferred again until the end of September.)
Festival - Hype / Importance
Ryan (being one of the oldest serving members of the Forest at the vollie meeting) described what it will be like during the Edinburgh Festival. He explained how the Forest was built upon the Festival as we started in August 2000. He also told the group how the Forest is a unique Festival venue in that we are totally autonomous - we aren't sponsored by anyone and we provide an alternative to everything else that is happening.
Ryan told the volunteers how the Festival will be truly amazing - you will have the best time of your life, but also the worst; you can be filled with joy, then despair - all in the same night! In other words it will be intense, but it will be worth it! Edinburgh's population rises from 500,000 to 1,000,000 odd people overnight. A lot of people really love the Forest and some get the whole volunteer ethic and help us out.
The Festival is also very important for the Forest - it the one time during the year where we make all the money to sustain ourselves for the rest of the year.
Ryan and a few other people asked the group if they could sign up for as many shifts as possible. If people don't have enough time to do a whole shift, even coming in to wash the dishes can be a massive help.
On the subject of dishes, Osama asked if we have enough. Yas said that it would be a great help if everyone could donate what they could. We need lots of everything - dishes, plates, mugs, tea pots (especially!), cutlery - you name it!
Milk explained the system he is in the process of setting up called 'Forest Frequently Asked and Unasked Questions'.
He is beginning to compile a list of all the questions people want to know about how the Forest works.
(Milk, I can't remember the details of what you said, so please insert them for me. Thank you! Lynne x)
End of Meeting
Bike Rack
FFAUQ - How can we make the Forest more like how we want it (problem solving & community building). To be addressed at the next meeting.
Shout outs
Judith gave a shout out for people to work at Old Hat Books. Unfortunately everyone who runs Old Hat Books - apart from Judith - is away on holiday, so she needs other people to help her staff the library.
If anyone is interested, could they please get in touch with Judith.
The shifts are four hours long (I think?!) and they mostly involve just being present.
Next meeting
The next volunteer meeting will be on Sunday ..... September 2009 - Please help me out on this guys!!!
(Again, I'm sorry if I've misrepresented anyone / thing. Lynne x)

Re: Volunteer Meeting - Sunday 26th July 2009
the FFAUQ is a mechanism to garner what's unanswered in the volunteer guide and either synthesize the missing info in or answer it in an appendix to the guide.
homework for the meeting was reviewing the content of the volunteer guide. is the file on this thread the most current edition?

Equity futures are down this morning, correcting yesterday's schizoid parabolic run. The dollar is higher, having not quite made it all the way down to support yet, bonds are higher, oil is higher, gold is lower, and food commodities are zooming. Rice nearly hit lock limit up for the second day in a row yesterday, this morning corn is breaking out to new highs, while most other food commodities are rising strongly as well… ahh, the seeds of revolution… planted, of course, by Ben Bernanke and his banker boys.
The ridiculous MBA Purchase Applications Index rose a silly supposed 9.5% in the prior week – organizations and entities that can profit from economic data should not be allowed to disseminate it. A kid with a crayon could do a far better job, and at least he wouldn't be biased. At least they admit it's just noise:
Flat is the best description for the housing sector right now. Mortgage applications did surge in the January 28 week but the comparison, the Mortgage Bankers Association notes, is against a shortened holiday week. MBA's look at the two weeks together shows purchase applications flat and refinance applications down 5%. Mortgage rates are steady and still historically low, at 4.81 percent for 30-year loans.
The "Challenger" Job-Cut Report rose in January to 38,519 from December's 32,004. Always on the lookout for something positive to spin, this is a better number than for January's in recent history, so we'll talk about that:
Challenger reports the fewest layoff announcements, 38,519, for any January since its series began in 1993. Challenger also counts hiring intentions which are strong at 29,492 and led by retail's 10,925. The latter compares with only 600 in January last year. This report points to strength for Friday's jobs report. ADP's estimate for private payrolls will be posted at 8:15 a.m. ET.
ADP's Private Payrolls report showed a decline from 297,000 phony jobs to 187,000 phony jobs. This report is as worthless as the day is long. Still, people with very low wattage bulbs use this data to set their expectations – note how badly they missed versus the BLS last month (again), and how they now armed with hindsight lower last month's GUESS by 50,000:
ADP's count of U.S. private payrolls slowed in January to plus 187,000 from a downwardly revised 247,000 in December (297,000 first reported). ADP missed badly in December, forecasting strength in what turned out to be weak results. Markets are showing no significant reaction to today's report.
The current Bloomberg consensus numbers for Friday's report are for 150,000 private payrolls jobs and the headline rate to increase from 9.4% to 9.5%.
January is the month in which the "Birth/ Death" model gets corrected. Those who are not factoring this in will be disappointed – just look at the size of last January's correction, it was massive:
Money and Markets published a good chart this morning showing how weak the Employment Population Ratio is with this "recovery" versus prior recessions. This is how the BLS creates a trumped up low headline rate, it shows severe stress on our population:
Yesterday the VIX closed back inside of its Bollinger bands, thus a market buy signal was given with that indicator. There are some patterns developing that may be terminating top patterns. The NDX has created what appears to be an expanding megaphone, while the other indices are etching out a more ascending and expanding wedge. We'll see if they hold any water with POMO starvation rules in effect.
Surprisingly, some bearish type articles ( a glimpse of reality) are making it into the mainstream. Here are two that surprise me to see them admitted:
Interest on national debt: 'Skyrocketing' costs ahead
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Interest payments on the national debt could total $5.5 trillion over the next decade, or about 79% of the new debt estimated to accrue between 2012 and 2021.
And that's the optimistic scenario.
"Interest payments on the debt are poised to skyrocket over the next decade," the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office wrote in its most recent budget outlook report.
The CBO -- and everyone else for that matter -- assumes that interest rates will rise. Just how quickly is the question. The CBO assumes a gradual rise, and projects that the 10-year Treasury rate won't hit 5% before 2015, up from an average of 3.2% today.
The real worst scenario, however, will be much worse than that. The exponential bad math will assure that. In reality, if we count the money used to artificially buy down interest rates, we are already spending ALL of our nation's income just to pay INTEREST on our debts! Should the "Fed" stop QE and other support programs, our interest expense will skyrocket. Thus our currency is in a death spiral that cannot be stopped within their central banker self-profit narcissistic paradigm.
Here's another one that leaked into the mainstream consciousness, parroting Bill Still's latest video that I posted yesterday:
Iceland Shows Ireland Did 'Wrong Things' Saving Banks
"Iceland did the right thing by making sure its payment systems continued to function while creditors, not the taxpayers, shouldered the losses of banks," says Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz, an economics professor at Columbia University in New York. "Ireland's done all the wrong things, on the other hand. That's probably the worst model."
Ireland guaranteed all the liabilities of its banks when they ran into trouble and has been injecting capital -- 46 billion euros ($64 billion) so far -- to prop them up. That brought the country to the brink of ruin, forcing it to accept a rescue package from the European Union in December.
All countries should tell the central bankers to pound sand – the entire globe will be far better off without them.
And now more blood is flowing in Egypt as protests there turn violent. Mubarak has yet to do what the people have told him to do, and should this drag on much longer it is likely to get very ugly. Again, the seeds of this violence are planted by our own central bankers, we are to blame for not taking care of our business and showing them the inside of a jail cell. That will come given time.
The price spiral created in food commodities is running unabated. Below is a chart showing rice and corn futures, both making new highs as I type:
That trajectory cannot be maintained for long without more violence occurring.
The dollar index is weighted 57% against the worthless Euro. The race to the bottom monetarily is in full throttle mode. The dollar index will not tell you that, instead the trajectory of food commodities and precious metals tells you all you need to know.

William Joyce and Brandon Oldenburg take home Academy Award for first original film
Los Angeles, CA – February 27, 2012 – Just announced last night at the 84th Annual Academy Awards®, Moonbot Studios took home an Oscar in the animated short film category for the studio's very first project, "The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore," directed by William Joyce and Brandon Oldenburg. "Morris Lessmore" was released in February 2011 in conjunction with the launch of the studio itself.
"The idea for the film was inspired by a dear friend and mentor, Bill Morris, a lover of books and a grand old gentleman of children's book publishing," said William Joyce, co-founder of Moonbot Studios and co-director on the "Morris Lessmore" film. "I know Bill would be touched to see a film about his life's passion honored by the Academy."
Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, "Morris Lessmore" is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story. Using a variety of techniques, including filmed miniatures, stop motion, 2D, and 3D animation, award-winning author and illustrator William Joyce and co-director Brandon Oldenburg present a hybrid style of animation that harkens back to silent films and MGM Technicolor musicals and is the most cutting edge of today.
"We created our film and our studio at the same time," said Brandon Oldenburg, co-founder of Moonbot Studios and co-director on the "Morris Lessmore" film. "The short is a sort of gumbo of everything we love about film and animation and so is our studio."
The Moonbot team created thousands of hand-painted books and constructed a full city block of the New Orleans French Quarter in 1/12th scale. The entire production of the film spanned a year's time. After the release of the short, Moonbot unveiled an interactive iPad App version of the story which has received worldwide praise as a ground breaking leap forward in storytelling on the iPad. The best-selling, interactive "Morris Lessmore" iPad App is available on iTunes for $4.99 in the App Store.
Much of what has allowed Moonbot to flourish creatively can be attributed to the company's strong local roots, including support from the State of Louisiana and the City of Shreveport. The creators are closely associated with ArtSpace, Shreveport's regional arts center, and the Robinson Film Center, a non-profit organization that hosts independent, international, and classic films and assists with film education. In keeping with the local theme, Joyce and Oldenburg were even outfitted for the Oscars in custom tuxedos created by Dickies, the clothing designer traditionally known for its "work wear" based in Oldenburg's hometown of Fort Worth, Texas.
"We can't emphasize enough how much the support of Louisiana Economic Development and the Shreveport community has helped to get Moonbot where it is in such a short time," said Lampton Enochs, co-founder of Moonbot Studios and co-producer on the "Morris Lessmore" film. "With the support of State incentives and workforce training programs, we've been able to build a strong team of talented artists and storytellers and have far exceeded our expectations for what we could accomplish in our first months of business."

With a narrow, six-point lead and facing fourth and nine at the opposition's 34-yard line, Lamar head coach Franklin Stephens dialed up at shot to the endzone and connected. Lance Austin hit twin brother Lawrence Austin behind a completely fooled Lovett secondary and Lamar went on to hold on for a 35-28 win in the quarterfinal round of the Class AA state football playoffs Friday night in Atlanta.
NEXT WEEK: Lamar will face Calhoun, which routed Brooks County 49-7, Friday next week. A coin toss will be conducted to determine the home team. Lamar has never been to the semifinals. "You made history tonight," Stephens told his team on the field at Lovett after the hard fought win.
Realtime scoring from the game was provided from the sidelines by Walter Geiger.

Blue Jackets activate Horton, Bobrovski, Prout
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Blue Jackets have activated forward Nathan Horton, goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky and defenseman Dalton Prout off the injured list.
To make room, the club reassigned forward Jonathan Marchessault, defenseman Tim Erixon and goaltender Mike McKenna to its American Hockey League affiliate in Springfield, Mass.
Horton, a prized offseason free-agent signing, underwent shoulder surgery last summer. He has missed the first 40 games this season.
Bobrovsky, winner of last year's Vezina Trophy as the NHL's top goaltender, has been out since Dec. 3 with a strained groin. He has missed the last 12 games. He is 10-11-2 with a 2.72 goals-against average and a .909 save percentage this season.
Prout has missed the last six games with an upper body injury.
