Every time I travel, especially to high frequented tourist places like times square in New York for example, you can not count the amount of selfie sticks anymore you see on people surrounded by you.
The latest then you realize we live not only in a social media oriented world but also in a selfie world, whether you are taking a quick selfiefor instagram, facebook as a private memory with your friends or just to send your mum a quick hello from somewhere in the world on whatsapp.
So how to create the perfect selfie ?
Your phone has a way to show a 3×3 screen showing you 3 lines which can make it easier to position your face central on the pic with enough space below and above your head.
The classic selfie is the symmetrical one that has the face in the middle of the pic. If you use many selfies in your profile you can spice things up if you position your face assymetrical showing your face just from one side or with your head slightly bended.
Cut irrelevant parts of the pic by bringing your pic to a quadratic shape. This is especially useful for instagram as the app always shows your pics in quadratic shape to others in the preview.
For me one of the most important aspect when it comes to taking pictures in general. Lighting can make such a difference on pictures and colors so make sure to use natural light for your perfect selfie and make sure that your face is not too dark.
You can easily pimp your phone with some extras that make selfies even more fun. One way you probably didn't know before is that you can also use your back camera instead of your front camera for selfies simply using headphones and pressing the volume + button to take a picture. Alternatively you can buy an external remote controller. My fav extra tool are smartphone objectives that can change the overall perspective of your camera to wide angle mode for example which are fun and give your pictures a completely different look again.
The MeinTrendyHandy article outlines exactly the two apps that I use daily to edit my pics as well. Snapseed and Vsco. With these two apps you don't need anything else. I love the variety of filters in vsco and snapseed for highlighting certain areas of the picture in case a shadow makes part of the pic too dark.


Hi, I'm Nate Kohari. I've been writing software since I was nine years old, and making money doing it for the last fourteen years. I've built dozens of products, and even shipped a few. I've started two companies, and sold one.
I moved to Raleigh, North Carolina with my wife and partner-in-crime Niki after we sold our first company, but for 27 years before that we lived in Akron, Ohio.
Throughout most of the 20th century, Akron was the "rubber capital of the world" and a seat of industry, home to Goodyear, B.F. Goodrich, and Firestone. The neighborhood I grew up in was called Goodyear Heights, and was originally built specifically to house people that worked at the Goodyear factories. I attended Seiberling Elementary School (named for a president of Goodyear), and later Goodyear Middle School.
You get the picture. Akron was a city built on rubber.
Then, in the 1980s, as globalization started to take hold and industry left America, most of the city's rubber factories shut down. My father had worked for years — many of them on the night shift — at the B.F. Goodrich factory until it closed in 1987, leaving him and 900 other tirebuilders out of work.
In the years that followed, Akron became part of the "rust belt," a wide and long swath of burned-out post-industrial towns that cuts through the American midwest from Detroit to Buffalo. My dad was able to reinvent himself and begin a new career, but many others weren't as fortunate. The city has yet to recover.
I learned early how quickly the status quo can change, the value of a healthy distrust of authority, and the power of being in control of your own destiny.
I was kind of a strange kid. I used to play with cardboard boxes, drawing complicated computers on them with a Sharpie, and sitting in front of them for hours pretending to press the buttons. The exact function of the imaginary machines is lost to my youth. Spaceships and stuff, no doubt, I dunno.
For Christmas in 1989, my grandfather bought us our first computer, a Tandy 1000 SX. Rather than spend a lot of money on games, my mom bought a book called Basic Computer Games, and painstakingly copied the BASIC source code from the book into the interpreter.
I still remember, and quite vividly, the moment I connected that the BASIC code from the book defined the rules of the game. By changing the code, I could change the rules of the game. I could give myself the high score, make my character jump higher, whatever I wanted. I could tell the compute what to do. I was in control.
For an awkward kid not quite sure of himself, being in charge of a world — even a tiny one living in a glowing box on the desk — was empowering. I was immediately hooked, and a programmer was born.
A few years later, we got a new computer, a Packard Bell 386. Among its many upgrades was a modem. Rather than buy AOL, which was pretty expensive, mom found a free dial-up BBS called called ACORN run by the local library. It took some finagling with SLIP settings, but eventually I figured out how to get past the BBS menus and onto the internet proper.
After that, I grew up on the internet. From our little house in Ohio, it was a window unto the wider world. As I grew older, I began to recognize the power the internet had to educate and bring people together. I wanted nothing more than to be a part of it.
By the time I was in high school, the NASDAQ bubble was in full swing, and the internet had become a boom town. It seemed like everyone was writing software and making millions of dollars. One of my favorite stories was Nullsoft, the software company that made Winamp. By the time they were acquired by AOL in 1999 for $200 million, I knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur.
It wasn't the money that I was attracted to — it was the impact. They were just some teenagers from Sedona, Arizona, and they built something that I used every day to play my (mostly pirated) MP3s. It became so popular that they sold it for a fortune to AOL, one of the largest companies in the world.
If a group of kids from Sedona could do it, why not a kid from Akron?
At the beginning of summer vacation in 1998, my best friend Pete invited me to see the new Godzilla remake. We'd been friends since kindergaten, but he'd switched schools a few years back, and he wanted to introduce me to some of his friends. One of the people that there that night was a girl named Nicole Walters.
The movie was terrible, but Niki and I immediately hit it off. She was hard-working, determined, and beautiful, and she was head-and-shoulders smarter than me.
It's like I'd spent all my life listening to this one piece of music, and then all of a sudden another piece started playing along side of it — but instead of disrupting each other, somehow they synchronized so perfectly that they became a symphony.
We dated for the rest of high school and throughout college, and on June 9th, 2006, eight years to the day after we met, we were married.
I graduated high school in 2000, and started studying computer science at the University of Akron. I'd applied to a few other schools as well, but Akron offered me a full scholarship, and it was difficult to turn down that kind of offer.
After graduating, I spent the next four years working as a software engineer for various companies. In 2008, I started working as a software developer for Telligent Systems. They were based in Texas, so I (and most of the development team) worked remotely.
It should have been a dream job: great co-workers, the freedom of working from home, and the salary was $15K per year more than I was making at my previous job, where I already felt like I was overpaid.
I hated it. Looking back, I think I had just gotten to the point in my career where I was tired of being a short-order cook in someone else's kitchen. I always wanted to be a chef.
At the same time, Niki was finishing comprehensive exams for her Ph.D., and was getting a little burned out on academia. We were both kind of disillusioned, and in search of something new.
On my free time, I'd been tinkering with building a web app based on an idea for managing your work that I'd stumbled across called kanban. Eventually we would turn this into Zen, our first company.

Appellant builder challenged the judgments of the Superior Court of San Mateo County (California) in favor of respondent buyers who brought an action against him for fraud and breach of contract.
Defendant builder constructed homes for veterans after applying for priorities on building materials pursuant to 50 U.S.C.S. app. §§ 631-645b. All of the homes purchased by respondents were built by appellant without compliance with and in violations of the plans and specifications submitted by him to the Civilian Production Administration. The court concluded that the federal statute did not contain exclusive remedies to purchasers. Respondents brought their case under common-law principles of breach of contract and fraud and so were entitled to pursue common-law remedies. The court agreed with appellant that there was no evidence of to support a finding of reliance on the plans and specifications of the home prior to purchasing with the exception of certain petitioners. The court did find that as beneficiaries to the contract between appellant and the United States, there was ample evidence to support the jury's findings that the third-party contract had been breached to respondent's damage. The court held that the court below had erroneously instructed the jury on determining damages. The court reversed the judgments with instruction to retry the issue of damages.
The court reversed the judgment in favor of respondent buyers with instructions to retry the issue of damages because the trial court had erroneously instructed the jury on damages so that the jury split appellant's liability for the claims of breach of contract and fraud.
Petitioner insurance company brought an application for a writ of mandate against respondent Superior Court of Los Angeles County, California, seeking to overturn its choice of law decision in a class action by real parties in interest policyholders against the insurance company.
The parties were counseled by their respective small business lawyer in California. The policyholders brought a class action suit against the insurance company, which was incorporated and headquartered in Illinois, contending the insurance company's board of directors did not pay dividends it promised. The superior court ruled that California law governed the causes of action, so the insurance company filed a petition for a writ of mandate, seeking to challenge the choice of law ruling and to have the case dismissed. The court found that because the declaration of dividends concerned the internal affairs of the insurance company, the laws of the state where the company was incorporated applied. In this case, that state was Illinois. Absent one of the exceptions to the business judgment rule, either fraud, oppression, dishonesty, total lack of merit, illegality, or a failure of the board of directors to become sufficiently informed to make an independent decision, the company was not liable under Illinois law for a lack of dividends. However, both California and Illinois law agreed that the California court could take the case unless it could be dismissed on forum non conveniens grounds, so dismissal of the case was not appropriate.
The court ordered that a peremptory writ of mandate be issued, which commanded the superior court to vacate its decision and issue a new one reflecting the fact that Illinois law should be applied to the corporation's internal decisions, and that the action should not be dismissed, as requested by the insurance company.

Antonin Artaud's Heliogabalus is simultaneously his most extreme, revolutionary and deranged book, and likely now also to prove his most influential in the contemporary moment with the publication by Infinity Land Press of this first complete English-language translation, by Alexis Lykiard.
Dating from the period when Artaud was preparing his legendary 'Theatre of Cruelty' experiments, Heliogabalus anatomises and recreates the sperm and blood-constellated life of the infamous Roman emperor who was assassinated by his own guards at the age of 18 after four years spent relentlessly deriding and disintegrating the empire's power. Artaud asserts that 'The entire life of Heliogabalus is anarchy in action... fire, gesture, blood, cry... Fanatical, a real king, a rebel, a crazed individualist.'
Artaud explicitly wrote his account of Heliogabalus's acts as an embodiment of himself and of his own insurgency in art. Three years after the book's publication, he was incarcerated in a lunatic asylum, emerging only shortly before his death in 1948.
This edition includes an introduction by Stephen Barber and his translations of all of the surviving letters written by Artaud about his work on Heliogabalus.

Antonin Artaud's work has a world-renowned status for experimentation across performance, film, sound, poetry and visual art. In the 1920s, he was a member of the Surrealist movement until his expulsion, and formulated theoretical plans across the first half of the 1930s for his 'Theatre of Cruelty' and attempted to carry them through. He made a living as a film actor from 1924 to 1935 and made many attempts to direct his own film projects. In 1936, he travelled to Mexico with a plan to take peyote in the Tarahumara lands. In 1937, preoccupied with the imminent apocalypse, he travelled to Ireland but was deported, beginning a nine-year asylum incarceration during which he continued to write and also made many drawings. After his release in 1946, he lived in the grounds of a sanatorium in Ivry-sur-Seine, close to Paris, and worked intensively on drawings, writings and sound-recordings. He died on 4 March 1948. His drawings have been exhibited on several occasions, notably at the Museum of Modern Art in Vienna in 2002 and at the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris in 2006.
Alexis Lykiard (born 1940) is a British writer of Greek heritage, who began his prolific career as novelist and poet in the 1960s. His poems about jazz have received particular acclaim, including from Maya Angelou, Hugo Williams, Roy Fisher, Kevin Bailey and others. He is also known as translator of Isidore Ducasse, Comte de Lautréamont, Alfred Jarry, Antonin Artaud and many notable French literary figures. In addition, Lykiard has written two highly praised intimate memoirs of Jean Rhys: Jean Rhys Revisited (2000) and Jean Rhys: Afterwords (2006).
Stephen Barber's books have been acclaimed as 'brilliant, profound and provocative' by The Times newspaper in the UK, and he has been called 'a writer of real distinction' and 'the most dangerous man in Europe' by The Independent newspaper. The Sunday Times newspaper hailed his books as 'exhilarating and disquieting'.
He is the author of many fiction and non-fiction books, including studies of Antonin Artaud, Pierre Guyotat, Jean Genet and Eadweard Muybridge. Among his recent books are England's Darkness (SunVision Press) and Berlin Bodies.
Martin Bladh is a Swedish-born artist of multiple mediums. His work lays bare themes of violence, obsession, fantasy, domination, submission and narcissism. Bladh is a founding member of the post-industrial band IRM, the musical avant-garde unit Skin Area and co-founder of Infinity Land Press.

The ultimate crowd pleaser (by colshpots)
As of this writing, I've only seen the "work in-progress" version at the CineVegas film festival. But for a work in-progress, it was amazing."My Name Is Bruce" is pretty much a movie for Bruce Campbell fans. It contains references to almost every movie he has done in his 26 year career, and every fan should pick up on all the references within this film.The plot is very simple. Dumbs**t teenagers, whom are messing around in a graveyard built for Chinese people who mined gold in the town of Gold Lick, Oregon, unleash the Chinese war deity, Guan Di.The film then cuts to <more>
Bruce on the set of his latest movie, Cave Alien 2. A fan then kidnaps Bruce, thinking he is the only one who can stop Guan Di, and brings him to Gold Lick in order to save them from the monster. Bruce thinks this is an elaborate joke and plays along until he finally sees Guan Di.The movie is filled with laughs, which I think only Bruce fans will enjoy. But if you are a Bruce fan, as I am, you will be laughing throughout the whole movie.Although this was an unfinished version I saw, it was still incredibly satisfying. I can only wait for the complete version to hit theaters, where I shall watch it as many times as humanly possible.
MNIB at AshlandFilmFestival (by dgibbphoto)
Saw the flick last night at the Ashland Film Festival. I had a great time with my wife as we were laughing pretty much throughout the whole movie. I think a comedy is one of the hardest films to make and I don't find too many of them to be that funny, so when I caught myself laughing out loud at MNIB I knew this was gonna be fun. You just got to let go and have a good time and ride with the movie. Don't get deep or analytical, just enjoy it. I was a part of the production crew on this film and really did not have an idea of how good or funny this was gonna be until I saw it. I want to <more>
own this one when it gets out on DVD.
If You Liked Bubba-Ho-Tep, You'll LOVE This One! (by Seamus2829)
If you consider yourself a fan of Bruce Campbell Evil Dead 1 and 2, plus it's third chapter,Armies Of Darkness,etc. , you owe it to yourself to seek this one out. Bruce Campbell who also directed this film plays a down & out actor, taking any & every part in every no budget piece of crap horror flick, named....well...um...Bruce Campbell. His sleaze bag of a manager sets him up with what is the promise of a birthday present that's to die for. What he happens upon is a small town that is in the throes of an ancient Chinese curse,involving the awakened spirit of a angry <more>
protector of bean curd I am not making this up . What follows is a nearly non stop roller coaster ride of a movie, with loads of in jokes, pop culture references,a beautiful woman,and some bloody but darkly funny violence. Put them all together,mix in some campy humour & you have yourself a fun time at the movies. This is the kind of film that should be screened as a midnight movie,if there were any cinemas that featured them these days. Slapped with an 'R' rating, this film serves up some raunchy language,bloody violence,and the central protagonist's sleazy lifestyle. AFTER NOTE:Some screening of this film have actually had Bruce Campbell,himself, hosting a half hour post film question and answer session---check your listings for a cinema that has one,and remember to bring a camera .
My Name Is Bruce: Entertaining, Funny, A Definite Must For BC Fans! (by alice_wandering)
I was extremely fortunate to obtain a ticket to the very first screening of "My Name Is Bruce" during the Ashland Independent Film Festival in Southern Oregon. Bruce appeared there in person and he was as charming, funny and charismatic as his alter egos on screen. It was a real privilege! Before and after the show, Bruce talked a bit about how making a film in one's hometown, how great it was for him to "be able make a film and sleep in his own bed for the first time in 10 years" and that you don't need a big Hollywood studio and a big blockbuster budget to make a <more>
good movie everyone can enjoy. He proved his point completely with the screening of this film. "My Name Is Bruce" was filmed entirely on located in the Rogue Valley, casting locals in many of the major roles, who all did a wonderful job. No big celebrity names, exotic locations or blue screen studios were necessary in making this a real good movie. But enough patting on the back. If you love any of the Evil Dead movies, if you've ever loved him as the dashing king of thieves in Xena: Warrior Princess, or if you've just been charmed by his delightful cameos in the Spiderman films, you will LOVE "My Name Is Bruce"! Even if you don't know that much about Bruce Campell and you just happen to be a fan of B-Movies, I still think you will enjoy this movie. Everything we love about Bruce is played so well over the top you can't help but laugh yourself silly! Bruce takes no mercy in making fun of himself - in this film, he's a washed up, boozing, C-movie actor, who's just finalized his divorce, making horrible alien movie sequels while treating his devoted fans like crap the scene where he kicks a fan in a wheelchair down a hill - PRICELESS - but just one of many ! This, of course, all done in comedic good taste. None of this could be considered is autobiographical, and it's far from some cheesy Lifetime channel oh-pity-me "the Bruce Campbell story" special. As Bruce beats himself up, we all laugh our bums off. Then, there is of course, the evil monster, Quan-Di, who's chops peoples' heads off in a cool, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon style. I would also like to add by the way that this Chinese God of Bean Curd has his own folksong sung by two humble guitar players, and it's a rather catchy-tune. Quite frankly, if you don't leave the theatre singing: "Quan You, Quan Me, Quan Di...", well then I just don't know what to say to you. ; The violence in this movie is very much like what you may find in the Evil Dead movies. There's much homage from that. Something else in this movie that's uber-cool and cult fans will enjoy: Ted Raimi... Is... EVERYWHERE in this film. He has as far as I could count three different significant roles, which are both delightful and hilarious to watch. The movie also takes some of its strength from the two main supporting roles, the plucky fan boy who practically worships Bruce Campell whose name I can't remember at the moment and his mother, played by Grace Thorsen. I should note that what I saw was a rough cut of the film, not entirely finished, so I don't know the names of all the actors because there were no opening and closing credits. So, sorry for now, plucky fan boy who worships Bruce Campell. I thought you were very good, but I can't remember your name. And kudos to the actor who played Quan-Di, who's physical characterizations behind the mask made him more than just another monster. In conclusion, when there is a final cut and it lands in theaters in October, do go see it. It was quite an entertaining film and well worth seeing it on the big screen. I would write more, because this movie ROCKED in practically every detail, but I fear I'd be giving too much away. Just take my word for it: it's groovy, baby. Go see it.
A Great Bruce Campbell Experience (by ice_blue_eyes13)
I just got back from the first screening of "My Name is Bruce," and I am very impressed. To put it simply, the movie is a film made by Bruce Campbell for Bruce Campbell fans. If you're not a Bruce Campbell fan, then you're probably not reading this post, so I'll move on.An ancient Chinese deity is set free a small Southern Oregon town a town Bruce Campbell calls the sequel to Deliverance at one point , and the townsfolk and, yes, they are folk decide to enlist the help of Bruce Campbell to stop the evil force. Bruce, however, believes the whole thing to be an <more>
elaborate hoax and plays along.This movie is funny, but it's two kinds of funny here. There are the jokes that anybody can sit down and enjoy, and then there are the "in" references that only Bruce fans can really enjoy. And there are a lot of "ins" I don't envy the person who has to do the trivia section for this one . Some are from his more famous works Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, etc. and will only truly be appreciated by the hardest of the hard core Mindwarp, McHale's Navy .I can't really discuss much of the technical merits of the film, since my screening was done on an early edit. There were no special effects, the music was of the stand-in variety, and some of the sound effects sounded like they had come from a Warner Bros. cartoon also stand-in . However, the movie's slant toward the realm of the B-movie makes these quirks seem perfectly in place. I still enjoy myself despite them, and the movie might have taken on a whole new charm because of them. I'll have to check out a clean version to be sure.In conclusion, if you're a Bruce Campbell fan, you're going to see this movie regardless of what you read here; however, I'll save you the anxiety and say you won't be disappointed in the least. If you're not a huge fan, this movie is still worth a viewing, since it's comedy could be seen as ripping on the horror genre in general and in a far superior way than the "Scary Movie" trilogy ever did.
A must-see for every Bruce fan (by Steve Fenwick)
First, my comments are based on a sneak preview of the film. I was not completed--lots of special effects were missing, the soundtrack was said to be not final, so the soundtrack including dialogue was not polished.Having said all of that, and based on the reaction of the small army of Bruce Campbell fans in attendance, this is clearly a movie that every Ash fan will want to see. Without giving away more of the plot than is in the outline, an monster has been unleashed on a small town in Southern Oregon, and Bruce is enlisted by local fans to fight it. But it's Bruce, not Ash, and he <more>
does his level best to portray himself as a washed-up B movie actor with no scruples or morals worth mentioning. There's a lot that reminded me of Galaxy Quest, but with Campbellian twist, and about one-tenth the special effects budget.The crowd couldn't stop laughing, so go see this when it's out!
Fun for the Fans.. (by teenitini)
I too obtained a coveted pair of tickets to MNIB.... The plot is basically what it says---a town of goobers kidnaps Bruce Campbell & pins their hopes of defeating the monster thats killing off the town members using all his B-Movie beast killing knowledge etc....Bruce thinks it's a big joke...till the Bean Curd hits the fan!! very slapstick, cornball, digs all over him self as an actoruses his old lines in new and inventive ways "...and maybe later honey, if your lucky I'll let you look at my BoomStick!" Anyone on the inside of these jokes will get it, love it and want <more>
more.... And those hard core haters who tear films to shreds will find plenty to hack on...But they wont get any fodder from me....just trust that if your a Bruce Campbell fan....your gonna buy it, and force your unwilling friends to watch it.
If Bruce Could Kill (by se7en187)
When a small town in Oregon is attacked by a evil monster, who do you call? Bruce Campbell of course.My Name is Bruce is a hilarious comedy directed by and starring the great Bruce Campbell. It's a creative low budget film that does so much with so little. The whole cast is enjoyable, it looks like they all had a fun time filming it, like a bunch of friends getting together and shooting a film. And Ted Raimi is awesome as always, playing several roles, it looks like they just put the camera on Ted and told him to do his thing, and man the Rhyme Throwah sure delivers.There are a lot of <more>
laughs throughout, I was smiling the whole way through. It's filled with a bunch of inside jokes that all Bruce Campbell fans will appreciate it. But this isn't just for people that love Bruce. This is a movie for everyone that appreciates film-making, and most importantly films that aren't trying to make millions of dollars. My Name is Bruce knows what kind of movie it is and doesn't try to be anything else. It makes fun of itself a lot of times and Bruce rips on himself so much throughout .I saw this at the East Lansing Film Festival and the audience could not sit still. There were so many cheers and constant laughter throughout the film.It's an entertaining and funny film. Seek it out, watch it, then spread the word.
Hilarious and entertaining; couldn't have asked for more! (by The_Void)
It's already been said that My Name is Bruce is a movie for Bruce Campbell fans, by Bruce Campbell; and I'm going to say it again because it's true. I won't say that I'm quite a part of the crowd that idolises the Evil Dead star; but I am a fan of his and his mere presence is generally enough to make me want to see a movie, no matter how bad it sounds. I decided that I was going to go into My Name is Bruce and rate it solely on how good it is rather than based on the fact that Bruce Campbell is in it; and overall I certainly wasn't disappointed; as My Name is Bruce <more>
is a thoroughly entertaining and hilarious comedy horror that is sure to delight anyone that is willing to enjoy the movie for what it is or for the fact that Bruce Campbell is in it . The film focuses on Bruce Campbell, who plays an over the top version of himself. He's down and out and tired of starring in rubbish low budget horror. Meanwhile, a young kid who loves Bruce Campbell so much that he uses Army of Darkness quotes to pick up women, without much success unwittingly unleashes a vengeful demon, and the townsfolk see the actor as their only means of survival.Much of the movie's humour is focused around Bruce Campbell and the actor is certainly willing to laugh at himself. I doubt the actor in real life much resembles his character in this film; but even so, I don't think there are many Hollywood stars or 'stars' out there that would, for example, drink liquor out of a dog bowl while playing themselves. The fact that its Bruce Campbell playing Bruce Campbell is the brunt of the movie to such an extent that the rest of it almost comes off like an afterthought; but since most fans will go into this movie wanting that; and Campbell clearly made this movie purely for those people, that was always to be expected. The monster in the movie is a Chinese demon and it really looks ridiculous, but in a fun campy sort of way. The film features plenty of death scenes; although unfortunately most of them are not particularly bloody. I have to say that the film doesn't really capture the manic style of the Evil Dead trilogy despite featuring some lines of dialogue, actors and scenes from said films but the film has its own style and it works well. Obviously the story has no depth at all; but it just wouldn't be proper to criticise it for things like that, and overall I have to admit that I really liked this film a lot and I'm sure that my fellow Bruce Campbell/Low budget horror fans will too.

Castles of Ireland – Donegal Castle
14.07.2020 02.11.2020 Ambassador
Donegal, County Donegal, Ireland
1 Donegal, County Donegal, Ireland
1.3 The Arts
Donegal Castle is positioned in the North West of Ireland. It controls the center of the community and also sits on a rough outcrop on the bend of the River Eske near the mouth of Donegal Bay.
For the past 2 centuries, most of Donegal Castle lay in ruins but in the late 1990s, the tower residence was brought back leaving the continuing to a wing as damages.
A limit wall with a small lodge built in the 17th-century borders the limestone and sandstone castle, the 15th-century rectangle-shaped keep, and a later Jacobean style wing.
Throughout the 15th century, Donegal (which comes from the Irish Dhun na nGall, indicating 'Fort of the Foreigner') was the seat of power of the O'Donnell chieftains, for this reason, its various other names, 'O'Donnell's Castle'.
In 1474, the principal of the O'Donnell clan, Hugh O'Donnell, decided to construct a castle in Donegal. According to neighborhood mythology, a secret passage links the two structures, though there is no concrete proof to sustain this story.
Over the centuries, the owners of Donegal Castle contributed to the structure, one of the most vital additions being the manor house, which was built throughout the 17th century.
Directed scenic tours take you around the areas inside the castle. The trips reveal the various styles as well as periods of its previous owners including Persian carpets and also French tapestries. The remainder of the castle can be seen without a guide.
The castle is open to the public throughout the year. During Spring/Summer opening hrs are 10:00 – 18:00 daily as well as during the Autumn/Winter in between 09:30 – 16:30
The castle was developed as a stronghold by Sir Hugh O'Donnell in 1474 for the O'Donnell clan that was among the most effective family members in Ireland from the 5th to the 16th centuries and also the faithful subject of Queen Elizabeth I till the Nine Years War.
The O'Donnells left Ireland in 1607 to in the 'Flight of the Earls', however before they left they tried to damage the castle to avoid it being used by the English versus other Gaelic clans. Captain Basil Brooke was provided the castle as well as its land in 1611 as well as promptly restored and also boosted it. He made additions in a Jacobean style adding a large manor house wing in the keep, a gable, additional windows, and a prepared tower. The castle stayed in the Brooke family members for generations up until it came under disrepair in the 18th century after Cromwell's invasion.
In 1898 the castle was handed over to the Office of Private Works by its owner the Earl of Arran.
The castle hosts occasions including Gaelic social nights.

Clinical Athlete vs Kho Health – Which is Better?
Clinical Athlete is a great resource created by Physical Therapist Quinn Henoch. While Kho Health was established by 2012 Olympian Ian Warner. That sets up the most significant differences between the two sites. One was made with healthcare providers in mind, and the other was made with athletes in mind. Both have similar goals when it comes to keeping athletes healthy and educating the world on how to move and move and be healthy.
It is essential to understand who the founders of each platform are because it will help you see that they are not so much competition as they are partners of a cause. They are fighting the same fight but are just doing so with different perspectives and approaches.
Clinical Athlete has a map on every page of their site that can direct you to different health care providers who are members. To be a member you have to be accepted and consider yourself to be a health practitioner that is still an athlete.
The map would be more useful, but all the practitioners seem to be pretty spread out. The other issue with the map is that it does not seem to be a huge focus on Clinical Athlete. They are more about educating healthcare providers than helping athletes to connect with healthcare providers.
Where Clinical Athlete shines is in their education offerings for healthcare providers. They frequently publish videos, webinars, certifications, events, jobs and peer-reviewed literature.
If you are a healthcare provider wanting to learn how to be better at your craft and work with more athlete,s then Clinical Athlete is a great resource for you. Not only will joining get you listed on the map but it will also make sure that you are always learning more.
Clinical Athlete does not have any unique offerings for athletes or any functionality in the platform for them to review therapists or anything like that. One of the most significant drawbacks to the platform is that not much is done to make it attractive for athletes. If you are an athlete looking for a healthcare provider, Clinical Athlete may be helpful for you if you live in the right locations.
Clinical Athlete has a great name, and they do a great job of getting their members to promote the brand. It means something to these healthcare providers to say that they are a Clinical Athlete. That is all thanks to excellent branding and community building from the company. They have been able to grow with social media due to people saying in their profiles that they are a part of Clinical Athlete.
Finding a sports medicine healthcare provider is much easier with Kho Health than any other platform. Places like Health Grades and WebMD are more geared towards the very traditional healthcare system.
Kho Health is for people looking for help with sports injuries or a more holistic approach to their healthcare. Unlike Clinical Athlete, Kho Health has practitioners in every state and province in the USA and Canada. You can filter through them by type, skill, location and many other factors.
When you do find someone on Clinical Athlete, there is no way to go about comparing them. With Kho Health each person is given a Kho Number. This number is used to make it easy to compare providers with a quick glance. The larger the number, the better the provider is with their reviews, engagement, and insurances they accept.
Kho Health was made by a former Olympian and not a healthcare provider. This means the user experience was made with the athlete in mind. Every athlete can follow healthcare providers that they are interested in. These healthcare providers can post videos, pictures, and statues on the platform to educate athletes.
It is an empowering feature because it allows athletes to start building relationships with healthcare providers. Athletes will have a place they can go to that is 100% health-focused.
Where Kho Health falls short is in offering healthcare providers different education platforms in the way that Clinical Athlete does. For Kho Health to do, they will have to continue working to build more partnerships with healthcare providers.
Who Wins Between Kho Health and Clinical Athlete?
There is no winner because both platforms can be used together. If you are an athlete, Kho Health will be more accessible to learn on and find the health care providers you need. If you are a healthcare provider, the Clinical athlete is a great resource to go to build community with other providers. Kho Health is where you go to be seen and build a relationship with athletes. Everybody wins!

Grace A. Lewis discusses the work she's doing as part of the Edge-Enabled Tactical Systems (EETS) research team at the Software Engineering Institute.
InformIT: What do you do as the technical lead for the Edge-Enabled Tactical Systems (EETS) research team at the Software Engineering Institute?
Grace A. Lewis: The focus of the EETS team is to leverage mobile technologies to enhance the manner in which people operate in tactical environments. As the technical lead I work with the team to create mobile solutions that can make an impact for people in the field and that we can transition to organizations that are willing to incorporate our ideas and prototypes into operational systems.
InformIT: Can you tell us more about what Edge-Enabled Tactical Systems are, and what the SEI is doing with them?
Grace: The term tactical edge is used as a reference to the edge of a connected network, which is where soldiers and first responders operate. We are currently working on mobile solutions so that people at the edge can execute their missions better, by providing ways they can access critical data even in situations of intermittent network connectivity, discover and leverage nearby resources to enhance handheld and sensor device capabilities, use context awareness as a way to reduce cognitive load and conserve resources on the mobile device, perform complex data analyses as a mission progresses, and rapidly deploy all these solutions in the field.
InformIT: Most people don't think of "cloud computing" and "war zone" in the same sentence, but that's one of your areas of research – using the cloud to extend battery life and reduce vulnerabilities in hostile environments. Can you tell us more about your work in this area and what applications it might have in non-hostile areas?
Grace: Hostile does not necessarily refer to a war zone; it refers to environments that are not friendly in terms of resources and environmental conditions, such as those experienced by first responders in natural disaster zones or medics providing care in impoverished regions. Our work in this area is based on cloudlets – which are discoverable servers located in single-hop proximity of mobile devices that use them – on which mobile can offload expensive computation such as speech recognition, face recognition, air quality analyses, image analysis, or the analysis of any data that is sensed or captured in the field. This not only saves battery life but also extends the computing power of mobile devices.
InformIT: Which of your initiatives at the SEI are you are most excited about?
Grace: I lead a project titled "Cyber-Foraging in Resource-Constrained Environments." The goal of the project is to move cloud computing to the edge by leveraging the technologies and concepts behind public and private clouds today, such as virtualization, elasticity and scalability, but being able to do it in the field with the use of cloudlets. The key at the edge is not only being able to offload computation, but also to keep providing these offloaded capabilities in the face of adversity. This requires an architectural approach that focuses on creating solutions that promote qualities such as survivability, resilience, trust, and ease of deployment.
InformIT: What are some of the most interesting challenges facing the field of mobile computing today?
Grace: I believe the real challenges in mobile computing do not come from everyday use; they come from being able to use mobile devices in situations where you do not have total control over the environment, such as at the edge, or where the environment is constrained in terms of resources, such as impoverished regions where mobile devices are the only form of technology and communication with the world. Creating mobile solutions that adapt to all these constraints is full of challenges and research opportunities where you can also make a huge impact.
InformIT: Tell us about your co-authorship of Modernizing Legacy Systems: Software Technologies, Engineering Processes, and Business Practices. How did the book come about, and what was your role in it?
Grace: That was a long time ago! At the time we were doing some very interesting customer work related to modernizing legacy systems, and we all thought that it would be a great idea to write down all that we were learning and implementing. We codified our process as the framework for the book content and divided up the chapters according to our areas of expertise. It was a lot of fun and it was also when I discovered that I loved writing.
InformIT: Your book shows how to implement a successful modernization strategy and describes specifically a risk-managed, incremental approach. How has this process evolved since you published the book in 2003?
Grace: It's funny because I still find people that tell me that they use the book in their courses or at work. I believe that the key was that we proposed a generic process that could be instantiated with any number of technologies and simply used our experience and selection of technologies as a case study that ran throughout the book to explain the concepts. That's actually the key in software engineering — to be able to define processes that can then be adapted to the particular culture and technologies of an organization, while maintaining the essence, rigor, and value of the process.
InformIT: Why did you pursue a B.S. in systems engineering at Icesi University in Colombia? Did you have any specific motivation or mentors who encouraged you to enter this field?
Grace: I am a first generation American. My parents came to the United States in the 1960s like many immigrants looking for the American dream. Unfortunately, my parents divorced when I was 17, a junior in high school, and the decision was to move to Colombia to live with my Mom's family. Systems engineering in Colombia is a very challenging major that combines computer engineering, computer science and information systems. I felt that it was a really good match for me because I really enjoyed computers and programming. My first computer science teacher at high school encouraged me to pursue a career in this field because programming came very naturally to me. It was also a field that at the time was hiring lots of people, which to me was also important given our financial situation after my parents' divorce.
InformIT: What have been the biggest challenges you've had to face in your career?
Grace: How fast the field evolves is a challenge as well as a motivation. It is exciting to be able to work in a field where you learn something new every day, but being a working woman is difficult in any career because you play many roles in life. Not that men don't do it, but I feel that for women it is much more important to have a healthy life-work balance and we stress more about it.
InformIT: What has been your greatest professional achievement?
Grace: At my last industry job, which was in a university, I was tasked with implementing the university-wide information system which would have to incorporate data from a very old system and also interface with all the existing and new enterprise information systems. It was a wonderful experience to start with the basics of doing all the strategic planning, requirements analysis, design, architecture and finally implementation, starting from a team of one and ending with a team of 10 people that had a full system up and running in 2 years. The core of the system is still working to this day although the technology has evolved.
InformIT: What is the most important advice you've ever received?
Grace: That you and your family always come first. When I was younger I thought that my goal in life was to be the CIO of a large company. That has changed completely! My goal in life is to enjoy what I do at work and to be the best that I can, so I can leave work at work and go home enjoy my family without being stressed about work. It takes a lot of discipline but it's what makes me happy.
InformIT: What advice would you give to a young person who is interested in getting into software engineering?
Grace: It is a wonderful field that requires a lot of dedication and especially organization to keep up-to-date on the latest technologies but also keep a healthy life-work balance. However, it is a field that is very rewarding because you get to be creative and in the end many people use the software that you design and build.
Grace: I do a lot of things for fun. I spend a lot of time with my family. I have a wonderful husband and we have two wonderful children, a 10-year old boy and an 8-year old girl. We enjoy watching movies, playing board games, playing outside when it's not cold, and ice skating. My husband and I enjoy going to concerts together. And for my "me time" I enjoy making cards and Zumba.


Download our step-by-step tutorial to install Cadnano1 and Cadnano2.
Note: Maya 2015 may no longer be available, and unfortunately, we do not have the resources to keep up with the annual release cycle. These instructions are provided for legacy purposes but are not supported and may no longer work.
As of 12 March 2012, there are known issues with the installer in cases other than having everything on the C:\. Update Oct-2015: We've still seen this problem for years, so it doesn't seem likely to be fixed soon.
Cadnano does not need Maya to run. However, it is currently required if you would would like to see a 3D model of your structure, which many people find helful. In recent years, Autodesk Maya has made 3-year licenses available to individuals with a .edu email address.
Create an academic account at www.autodesk.com/education/. After you activate your account by clicking on the link in the email, fill in your preferences.
Download the free version of Maya 2015 for your operating system from here.
If the python console is launched, you have python installed and can move on to installing Cadnano. Otherwise you need to install Python. We recommend version 2.7.2 as of this writing, but you may have success with newer versions. Note that this will probably NOT work with python3.
Add the Python folder to the PATH environment variable.
Add the python installation path, in our case "C:\Program Files\Python" to the Variable value, and click OK.
Click OK to close the Environment Variables and System Preferences dialog boxes.
cadnano 2.2.0 Installer (64 bit).
Run the MSI file and follow the instructions in the installer.
Run Autodesk Maya and click on the cadnano button on the top right of the Maya interface.
A few users have encountered a problem where the Maya configuration files are not updated by the installer. The following additional steps may be used to complete the installation.
If the installer requests a reboot, please reboot before running Maya.
The 32-bit installer will not work for 64-bit Maya, and vice versa. You can determine the version of Maya by checking the launch icon, or the title bar in Maya when it is running. Make sure the installer matches the Maya version (32-bit or 64-bit).
If you are trying to use Maya 2013 and are getting this error, one workaround is to download and manually install Maya 2013 PyQt x64 from Nathan Horne's website. (p.s. — Nathan's blog is amazingly useful - many great examples for how to get python/pyqt code to run inside Maya).
Launch Maya once to generate the preferences files, then close Maya.
Find spCadNano.py and toggle on "Loaded" and "AutoLoad"
This probably means that the Maya preferences got corrupted, possibly by a bug in cadnano.
In order to restore the preferences to their defaults, simply delete (or rename) the "prefs" folder.
On Windows it can be found in C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\maya\[version].
On OSX it is in /Users/[username]/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/[version].


The USA PATRIOT act is an acronym that stands for the "Uniting (and) Strengthening America (by) Providing Appropriate Tools Required (to) Intercept (and) Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001" which granted American law enforcement unprecedented rights to gather intelligence and abridge civil liberties in the face of the terrorist threat to the United States. The Patriot Act was passed by Congress by overwhelming margins in 2001, renewed in 2006 and once again extended by President Obama in 2011.
There are ten parts to the Patriot Act, each concerning a different aspect of anti-terrorism efforts. Only sections that remain in effect will be listed as many of the original sections expired in 2006. Provisions of the Patriot Act were subject to sunset clauses, or a mandatory expiration by a certain date, requiring those provisions to be re-approved.
Section 104 of Patriot Act - Allows for the intervention of military troops, with the consent of the Attorney General, in the event non-chemical weapons of mass destruction are used against Americans domestically or abroad.
Section 106 of Patriot Act - The President is allowed to investigate the transactions of foreign nationals and countries and seize their assets, without due process if they participate on an attack against the United States.
The content of these sections represent an increase in Presidential power and the authorization of various government agencies to investigate possible terrorist activity in the United States.
Section 203a/c of Patriot Act - Streamlined procedures to disclose information between the courts and the government during grand jury deliberations or proceedings. Subsection c gave the authority to the Attorney General to establish the procedures by which this information is disclosed.
Section 205 of Patriot Act - Grants the FBI the power to employ translators to support counter terror operations without typical limitation and regulations set on typical federal employees. The Director of the FBI must regularly disclose the number of translators employed in this manner to Congress.
Section 208 of Patriot Act - Amended from the original to require 11 (formerly 7) judges to review a surveillance order, with three judges living within 20 miles of the capital.
Section 210/11 of Patriot Act - Affirms the right of the government to force a communications provider to hand over records of electronic communication.
Section 213 of Patriot Act - The government may conduct searches without immediately notifying the suspect of the warrant. This is viewed as necessary to prevent the tipping off of co-conspirators.
Section 219 of Patriot Act - Allows judges to issues search warrants both in and outside of the jurisdiction that pertain to a terrorism investigation.
Section 221 of Patriot Act - Refers to trade sanctions against state sponsors of terrorism, weapons proliferation and drug trafficking.
Section 222 of Patriot Act - Limits the degree of cooperation of a telecommunications provider and law enforcement to the provisions of the Patriot Act alone.
Title II has previously given sweeping power to federal authorities to intercept communications that might be related to terrorist plots but many of those provisions have since expired. There are now limitations on the use of surveillance devices and the ability of law enforcement to conduct searches. Many of the provisions, such as delayed notifications of warrants apply in domestic law as well. Ongoing investigations started prior to 2006 retain the expired provisions until he conclusion of the investigation. Critics have argued that this section does not provide reasonable safeguards against the harassment of innocent civilians by law enforcement by compromising their electronic privacy.
Subtitle A - This section is comprised of regulations to prevent money laundering including restrictions on certain types of bank accounts, financial institutions' relationships with foreign entities and increasing communication between these institutions and the government. It also increased criminal penalties for money laundering for the purposes of financing attacks, corruption and trafficking.
Subtitle B - Banks must now notify US Intelligence if they see suspicious activity in bank accounts and require the reporting of foreign currency over $10,000. The bank cannot be held liable for the disclosure of personal information to federal authorities.
Subtitle C - This section deals primarily with currency smuggling by stopping the movement of bulk currency to be sold on the black market. It is a criminal offense to conceal currency over $10,000 on one's person or in luggage. Failure to report the currency subjects it to forfeiture.
Subtitle B - This amended the Immigration and Nationality Act to prohibit representatives of foreign terrorist organizations from entering the US. Their family may also be prohibiting from entering the United States depending on the circumstances. This is to prevent the possibility of attacks or the collection of funds to finance future attacks. This act also provides the language and structure to classify terrorist organizations and what actions constitute a terrorist attack. The Secretary of State has the ability to declare organizations as terrorists and this designation can be reviewed and renewed every two years.
Subtitle B also provides for mandatory detention provisions for aliens engaged in terrorist activity or espionage for up to 90 days for 6 months if the detainee is confirmed to be a threat to national security. This process is subject to judicial review and the number of aliens detained must be reported to the Attorney General. Additional provisions required the monitoring of foreign students and the sharing of information about potential terrorism suspects with other foreign jurisdictions.
Subtitle C - This section allowed the preservation of the rights of immigrants that have had loved ones killed as a result of terrorist acts or renewal proceedings disrupted as a result of terrorist attacks in the Fall of 2001 (including anthrax attacks). Two years immediately after the attacks those who had lost loved ones could receive US citizenship after filing a petition with the US Attorney General.
The section also included provisions to allow an alternative subpoena, called a National Security Letter, which allowed the FBI and other government agencies to force organizations turn over records to the government on particular individuals (Section 505). These organizations were forbidden to challenge the NSL and were forbidden to reveal the request due to a gag order. The use of SELS was challenged in Doe v. Ashcroft in 2004 and was found to be unconstitutional and subject to stringent regulations to prevent abuse. Doe v Ashcroft would continue through the appointment of other attorney generals up until the present Attorney General Eric Holder. Federal courts finally ruled against the government opposing the lack of a process to challenge the subpoena and the lack of a right for the subpoenaed party to disclose the subpoena. The NSL is currently under review and may proceed to the Supreme Court.
This Title provided relief funds for families that have lost members due to terrorist attacks. This covers emergency workers as well as the general public. The relief fund may include private donors and has been expanded to include all US possessions, including Puerto Rico and the US Pacific Territories.
This section streamlines communication between the government and law enforcement and allows them to cross jurisdictions to investigate terrorist conspiracies. It further defines terrorism as a criminal activity.
This section redefines several crimes such as assassination, kidnapping, racketeering and cyber warfare as acts of terror. Specifically this Title created a special punishment for attacking a mass transit system punishable with life imprisonment for the death of any person.
Additional penalties included a prohibition on harboring terrorists subject to imprisonment of up to ten years, seizing the assets of individuals or organizations involved in terrorism and punishing those that provided material assistance to terrorists. The last provision was amended to clarify the definition of "material assistance" as the original wording was broad and could subject innocent or unknowing collaborators to unfair charges.
This section improves procedures to disseminate intelligence gathered from electronic sources to the US Attorney General in regards to investigating foreign sources.
These are a number of unrelated provisions including penalties for impersonating a Red Cross workers, training foreign police organizations and studying the use of biometric information linked to the FBI database at border security checkpoints.

Fluminense de Feira Futebol Clube é uma agremiação esportiva da cidade de Feira de Santana, estado da Bahia, fundada em 1 de janeiro de 1941.

Atualmente, o Fluminense de Feira tem como seus principais rivais o  e o Atlético de Alagoinhas, entretanto, graças ao seu pioneirismo do time feirense no futebol baiano, os confrontos entre "Flu de Feira" versus Bahia ou  possuem grande tradição no estado e, por esse motivo, apesar de não haver grande teor de rivalidade, as séries de confrontos Bahia vs. Flu de Feira e Flu de Feira vs. Vitória ganham status de clássico no futebol estadual.

História
O Fluminense foi fundado no dia 1 de janeiro de 1941, por um grupo de jovens feirenses que eram torcedores do  do Rio de Janeiro, mantendo as cores do homônimo carioca.

Foi campeão amador em 1947, 1949, 1950 e 1953, profissionalizando-se em 1954, quando aconteceu o primeiro grande passo na história do clube. Convidado pela Federação Bahiana de Futebol, o Fluminense de Feira se tornou profissional e, em 6 de junho do mesmo ano, empatou com o Vitória no Estádio da Fonte Nova por 1–1 em sua estreia. O gol da equipe foi marcado por Alfredo. Este clube foi o primeiro do interior a disputar o Campeonato Baiano de Futebol e, com apenas dois anos no futebol profissional, em 1956, conquistou seu primeiro vice-campeonato baiano.

No ano de 1963, se tornaria, pela primeira vez, Campeão Baiano de futebol, conquistando o título em cima do . Essa história seria novamente escrita em 1969, contra o mesmo Bahia. Esse seria o último título do Touro do Sertão, e de um time interiorano no torneio. Somente em 2006, o  de Ilhéus quebraria o tabu de quase 40 anos sem que um clube do interior do estado vencesse o certame. Em 1998 e 2009, conquistou a Taça Estado da Bahia (atual Copa Governador do Estado da Bahia), que garantia uma vaga na Série D do Campeonato Brasileiro. Ganhou também a Copa SERBA em 2006, disputado apenas entre clubes dos estados da Bahia (exceto a dupla Ba-Vi) e Sergipe.

O Touro chegou a ser vice-campeão baiano em seis oportunidades, nos anos de 1956, 1968, 1971, 1990, 1991 e 2002. Em 1991 e 2002, ganhou vaga na Copa do Brasil de Futebol com o vice-campeonato.

Nos tempos atuais, participou em 2010 da Série D nacional, pela segunda vez consecutiva, representando a Bahia.

No dia 28 de novembro de 2015, o Touro do Sertão sagrou-se campeão da Copa Governador do Estado, vencendo a  pelo placar de 1–0, na Arena Fonte Nova, mesmo resultado do primeiro jogo da finalíssima, quando derrotou a equipe do norte do estado em Riachão do Jacuípe.

They're Creepy and They're Kooky: UF Presenting Musical Version of The Addams Family
Alexis Mitchell Posted On February 9, 2017
The Addams Family is returning – not via television show or movie, but as the University of Findlay's spring musical production!
The show will be staged Friday and Saturday, Feb. 24 and 25 at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, Feb. 26 at 2 p.m. at the Marathon Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets cost $12 for adults and $6 for seniors. UF students, faculty and staff with valid ID will be admitted free. Tickets can be purchased through the box office located at 200 W. Main Cross St., or online at www.marathoncenterarts.org.
Based on the Addams Family we all know and love from the comic strip characters created by Charles Addams, these dark but lovable characters live in the middle of New York City's Central Park in a mansion. Their ancestors, buried nearby, emerge from the ground every once in a while when something is going on to help move the story along. Outsiders consider the family abnormal, but their closeness and dedication to each other is evident.
Young daughter Wednesday dates a "normal boy" from a "normal" family that has its own evident problems, which ultimately makes the audience reconsider what is normal and what is abnormal. Is anything normal?
In this adapted musical production, a marriage combines the families. The ancestors are a very important part of the show, as they keep the story moving along.
While the story is about a mysterious family, play director Vicki Mcklurkin contends the characters are anything but "spooky."
"It is very much a comedy! Even though it's about dark souls it's very much a comedy," she emphasizes
This version will include all the characters from the original story, from the crazy granny who loves her potions, to Pugsley who loves being tortured by his big sister. It will also feature music from the 2010 Tony Award nominated best original score by Andrew Lippa.
Also assisting with production are Michael Anders, Ph.D., music director; Brenda Hoyt-Brackman, choreographer; Carl Walling, Ph.D., set designer; and Sara Bornhorst, stage manager.
The large cast include a total of 30 students and staff. The leads include:
Gomez Addams – Blake Bush
Morticia Addams – Megan Lasher
Uncle Fester – Brent Hoggatt
Grandma – Adrionna Powell Lawrence
Wednesday Addams – Abigail Land
Pugsley Addams – Nolan Tiech
Lurch – Jared Matte
Mal Beineke – Jacob Sarver
Alice Beineke – Sarah Black
Lucas Beineke – Andrew Peatee.
The family ancestors/ensemble include Alexis Regula, Isabel Wolke, Tabitha Kittle, Canarissia Cline, Rachel Coberley, Diana Montague, Cheri Hampton-Farmer, Katie Swank, Luke Kleman, Kelsey Sweatt, Jonda Krontz, Mykayla Ruffing, Ayane Hida, Jesse McGaughey, Cody Watson, Rino Okazaki, Destiny DeWar, Austin Stevens and Dale Brougher.
Theatricals are by special arrangement with Elephant Eye Theatrical. The Addams Family is also presented through special arrangement with, and all authorized performance materials are supplied by Theatrical Rights Worldwide, 1180 Avenue of the Americas, Suite 640, New York, NY 10036.

Frist Stays Mum on House Leadership Race
Robert Bluey
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R.-Tenn.) said Tuesday he wouldn't make an endorsement in the race to replace Rep. Tom DeLay (R.-Tex.) as House majority leader.
Acting Majority Leader Roy Blunt (R.-Mo.) is facing a spirited challenge from Rep. John Boehner, chairman of the House Education and Workforce Committee.
During an appearance before Bloggers' Row at Samuel Alito's confirmation hearings, I asked Frist if he was planning to takes sides.
"No," he said. "We'll let that play out. It's one of the wonderful things about these two institutions. When challenges arise, people work through it."

If you're frustrated with sagging skin in your forehead region, or drooping eyebrows brought on by aging, a forehead lift and eyebrow lift may be just what you're seeking. Younger people are also candidates if they have inherited traits, such as a low brow or other features.
A brow lift in Fort Myers helps reverse the visible signs of the aging process, such as deep wrinkles and creases across your forehead, which is caused by years of facial expressions and environmental effects.
There are two methods to lift your forehead and eyebrow areas: Classic and Endoscopic.
The classic lift involves one continuous incision, beginning at the level of your ears and going up around your hairline.
In an endoscopic lift, instead of making one continuous incision, Dr. Brueck will make a few shorter incisions in the scalp and then insert a small camera on the end of a thin tube to view the tissues and muscles from a screen. Then, small anchors are used to secure the tissue once it's altered appropriately. Because the incisions are smaller during an endoscopic lift, this procedure is less invasive. You will experience minimal scarring and a shortened recovery time.
Am I a good candidate for a Brow Lift in Fort Myers?
Dr. Brueck will examine your entire forehead region, including your upper eyelids, paying attention to the muscles. He may have you make a variety of facial expressions so he can evaluate exactly how to help you. He will also ask whether you smoke, drink alcohol or take certain medications and vitamins during the time of your consultation to determine if this procedure is right for you.
To see what a brow and forehead lift in Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Punta Gorda, FL can do for you, put your hands above your brows and outside the edges of your eyes and gently raise the skin upwards.
Your recovery is going to vary depending upon which procedure you had: a classic or endoscopic brow lift in Cape Coral, Punta Gorda.
You will experience some swelling and bruising, which can also affect other parts of your face, including your cheeks and eyes. The swelling usually resides in about a week. For at least two days following your procedure, you should keep your head elevated to help alleviate swelling, and you can gently apply ice packs to the affected region.
Most patients can return to work within 10 days, some sooner, depending on which procedure you underwent and your own personal rate of recovery.


I've heard it said time and again: the Euro is weak, the Eurozone a busted flush. And the strange thing is that no-one seems to contradict it. I've been living inside the Eurozone for almost 10 years now. My income is in pounds sterling which I have to convert into Euros for my day-to-day spending. I can tell you from personal experience that the Euro is not as weak as the pound.
When we first moved here, late in 2006, a pound would buy 1.5 Euros. After the 2008 banking crisis, the two currencies came close to parity. This was a time when people from the Republic were traveling across the border into Northern Ireland to do their weekly shop because it cost them less.
The graph alongside is based on the records I have kept of the fluctuations in the exchange rate as published on the Yahoo Finance website. What it clearly demonstrates is that the damage done to sterling by the British government's bail out of UK banks was far greater than that done to the Euro by the ECB's bail out of Spain, Portugal, Greece and, of course, Ireland. It was the relative weakness of sterling that helped the UK economy recover more quickly than has the Eurozone. Even now sterling has still not regained the strong position it held relative to the Euro ten years ago.
The right hand end of my graph shows how the pound has fared in the first five months of 2016. As this communication from a leading currency trader points out, the pound falls every time a poll shows increased support for the leave campaign. Now, I am not so selfish as to want voters to base their decision on the impact of Brexit on my income and that of other retired Brits living in the Eurozone; there far too many much more serious consequences to consider, not least our security.
I have been a supporter of UK membership of the EU since the days when our repeated membership applications were rejected by the man we helped when his country was under Nazi occupation, Charles De Gaule.
I can't help the feeling that it is incumbent on those of us who grew up experiencing post-war austerity, and for whose parents the horrors of past wars and recessions were recent living memories, to explain to the younger generations that the past was not as rosy as some of the leave campaigners would have them believe. Nothing pains or puzzles me more than the number of people of my generation who appear to have forgotten. The pathetic slogan "I want my country back" that so many seem to have adopted is just that – a pathetic slogan. Make no mistake, those supposedly halcyon days are gone, never to return, in or out of the EU.
It is not just the UK that has experienced seismic changes over the past four decades. The whole world has changed beyond recognition. The forces that have brought about these changes – globalisation, climate change, international terrorism and mass migration among the most significant – are best resisted, to the extent they can be resisted at all, by co-operation and collaboration. I am reminded of the parable of the boy with his finger in the dyke. The flood might be causing substantial damage but removing that boy from his post to help with the clean up could cause the dyke to collapse, leading to far more damaging consequences.
Other cliches that spring to mind include throwing the baby out with the bath water, and 'better the devil you know'. If it is fear that drives your decision, the greater fear, surely, is the unknown future that faces us when we are isolated from our allies.

In this paper we present the advances on the fabrication of THz emitters and detectors obtained within the framework of the European ROOTHz project. Two types of devices are explored, self-switching diodes and slot-diodes, using both narrow bandgap and wide bandgap semiconductors. This broad approach allows us to improve the frequency and power generated by Gunn diodes and the responsivity and noise of detectors at THz frequencies.

If you receive a judge's order to be a witness in a criminal court case, you must go to court at the date, time and place mentioned in the order. It is your duty to help the case run smoothly. If you refuse, you can be arrested and brought before the judge by force.
Witnesses answer questions about things they saw, heard or experienced that relate to the case. Answering these questions is also called "testifying".
Testifying in Court: It's an Order!
When a lawyer asks you to testify in a criminal trial, you can agree to go voluntarily. In this case, you might not get an order by a judge to testify. These orders are called a "summons to appear" or "subpoena".
If you don't want to testify, or if a lawyer wants to make sure you show up, you could receive a subpoena.
A subpoena is a document in which a judge orders you to testify. You will receive it in the mail, or a police officer or bailiff will deliver it to you personally. A subpoena contains important information including the date, time and place you need to testify. A subpoena sometimes tells you to bring certain objects or documents with you to court and show them to the judge.
A subpoena is an order by a judge, and you must respect it.
After you receive a subpoena, it could happen that something important prevents you from going to court. For example, you might have surgery on the same day as your court appearance.
In this case, you must ask the judge to cancel the subpoena.
Important! Until the subpoena is cancelled, you have a duty to testify in court.
If you have a duty to testify but don't go, a judge can issue a warrant for your arrest.
This means police officers can arrest you and bring you to court by force. You can also be fined or jailed for preventing the case from going smoothly.
