Women in Entertainment Power 100
10:13 PM PST 12/7/2010 by THR staff
Kwaku Alston
CEO, OWN
The Hollywood Reporter's 19th Annual List of the Females Who Rule Entertainment
51. Beth Swofford
Motion Picture Literary Agent, CAA
"When I realized that being a director wasn't for me," says Swofford, who went to USC film school, "I thought, 'Well, at least I can help great directors get their films made.' " She's done that for new client James Cameron, who recently closed a deal for two sequels to Avatar; Guy Ritchie, who will direct the Sherlock Holmes sequel; and Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, whose Biutiful was picked up at the Toronto International Film Festival. Add in such clients as Sandra Bullock, directors Francis Lawrence (the upcoming Water for Elephants) and Joe Wright (Hanna), and you could say Swofford made the right call. It helps that she has a broader perspective than most agents: An avid art collector, she says her inquisitive nature helps her work. "It's important to get out and be curious about the world," she says.
52. Sheila Nevins
President, HBO Documentary/ Family
With projects that run from the sordid (Real Sex, Taxicab Confessions) to the groundbreaking (Ghosts of Abu Ghraib, Born Into Brothels), nobody is more influential in the documentary world than Nevins. "The bottom line of documentaries is it's like going to school — real-people school, not celebrity school," she says. She's most proud of last month's Wartorn: 1861–2010, which examines the effect of post-traumatic stress disorder, and also is working on a film that follows the recovery of a pelican caught in the wake of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Nevins says her thirst for knowledge fuels the work that she's done, citing this year's Iran-set For Neda. "I would never know how to say Ahmadinejad if I hadn't done For Neda," she says with a laugh, confessing that she has little spare time. "I have a son, I have a husband, I have a life, so to speak, but work is my fire," she says.
53. Kathryn Bigelow
When Bigelow took home an Oscar in March for directing The Hurt Locker, it marked the first time a woman had earned the honor. Pundits couldn't decide whether it was more interesting to discuss the fact that Bigelow's ex-husband James Cameron was pitted against her in the race or that a female won an Oscar for directing a male-centric war film. However, Bigelow has always shied away, though elegantly so, from discussing her work in terms of gender. "I think of a person as a filmmaker, not a male or female filmmaker," she told Slate.com. "Yes, we're informed by who we are, and perhaps we're even defined by that, but yet, the work has to speak for itself." Although seven years passed between her last film, K-19: The Widowmaker, and her most recent one, Bigelow has been directing since the early 1980s. The director, who went to art school to train as a painter, is in preproduction with Hurt Locker writer Mark Boal on Paramount's Triple Frontier, which will star Tom Hanks.
54. Lauren Shuler Donner
The Boston University graduate, who has been producing since 1983's Mr. Mom, says she has managed to find time to start a new hobby: making pottery. "When you are throwing, every fiber of your being has to watch what you're doing with your hands or it will collapse and go wrong," she says. "It's intensely therapeutic." The wife of director Richard Donner will need all the therapy she can get with a new franchise blooming at Disney and a push into theatrical musicals. That's in addition to landing Kick-Ass director Matthew Vaughn the helming gig for X-Men: First Class and Darren Aronofsky for X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2, which begins shooting next year.
55. Cynthia Pett-Dante
Co-Owner/Managing Partner, Brillstein Entertainment Partners
Pett-Dante still reads every script that lands on her desk for her client Brad Pitt. Well, nearly. "I stop at page 16 if it gets too painful," she says. Although she has secured successes for some of her younger clients, such as getting Garrett Hedlund in Tron: Legacy and Anton Yelchin in Fright Night, she says it's becoming harder than ever before to score pay increases for them. "Back in the old days, if you had a young client who did fantastic work and drew a following, the quote would go from 200 to 550," she says. "Now, that's no longer the case." A notable animal-rights advocate, Pett-Dante recently bought a property off a Malibu landslide and set up a farm to host goats, sheep and pigs that were sent to slaughter by a petting zoo shuttered during the recession.
56. Gail Berman
Founder and Partner, BermanBraun
Berman always has had a flair for the theatrical — from producing Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat straight out of the University of Maryland to running Fox TV as president of entertainment to heading film production at Paramount. Now she is redefining the digital sphere with partner Lloyd Braun through BermanBraun, the company they created in 2006. With three website launches this past year alone — GLO, Wonderwall Beltway and Wonderwall Latino — following Wonderwall, an Internet star with 12.5 million uniques per month, Berman has bounced back after a spotty run at Paramount. She also is producing the cop-as-comic-book-hero show The Cape for NBC, Lauren Conrad's new reality project for MTV and three specials for Discovery. Sadly, she says she's about to lose two of her most trusted pop culture advisers — her twins Alix and Jacob, soon heading for college.
57. Christina Norman
The Second Act: "I quit. I'm done. I have to stop right now." Those were the words Christina Norman recalls telling herself in 2008, the year she walked away from her 17-year career as an MTV media executive. "It was the most honest moment of my life," she says. "Being able to say that I was not good at this anymore — not good to myself, to my work, to the people that depend on me — was the honest truth."
Unlike many high-profile Hollywood jobs, which invariably end with the executive being shoved out the door, Norman says she made the decision to leave on her own, burned out from too many years of being on call 24/7. Now, she has redefined herself as CEO of Oprah Winfrey's new network, OWN, a job she has held since February 2009.
She met Oprah in 2007, after a torn Achilles tendon forced her to cancel a family vacation in Italy. In its place, after she had recuperated, she took her family to South Africa. "I walk into the lobby of this most opulent, beautiful place," Norman says. "I'm covered in dust, literally, and I see Gayle King [Winfrey's best friend]. That's when she tells me that Oprah is opening a school that week." King invited her to join them for the opening.
Soon after, Norman was approached about joining OWN while still at MTV, where she was president of the network. But the timing was wrong. "I was really not in a good place," she says. "I was not 100 percent, and it showed. It was just not an electric connection."
A year after her first interview — and much shuffling among the top execs Winfrey originally appointed — Norman says "a headhunter called me and said they had reopened the search and did I have any recommendations? 'Give me the job!' I said. 'I'm ready.'" So was Winfrey, who adds, "It takes a real woman to know when to say No."
Now it will take a real executive to deal with the challenges Norman faces.
It's a big risk, and Norman knows it. But risk-taking is part of her DNA. A New York native, she grew up in the Bronx with an architect father and a mother who runs an education and training program for the New York State court program. She earned her degree in film production from Boston University but as a college student was "a knucklehead."
After leaving the university, Noman got a job as a P.A. with a small production company — and loved it.
More work in commercials was followed by a freelance gig as a production coordinator at MTV Networks that turned into a full-time post as production manager in 1991, when Norman oversaw in-house promotional spots for shows like Beavis and Butt-head. When that became a pop-culture phenomenon, she moved on to manage creative campaigns for such shows as The Osbournes and The 10 Spot and soon was appointed senior vp marketing, advertising and on-air promotion. In 2002, parent company Viacom hired her as executive vp and GM of MTV sister network VH1, where she helped launch series including Bands Reunited and Best Week Ever. VH1's key demographic rose from 250,000 to nearly 340,000, and Norman was tapped as VH1's president in January 2004.
A year later, she became president of MTV, supervising the network's creative and business endeavors — a job she held until she left the company in 2008.
If this all seems like smooth sailing, that's hardly the case. Norman admits she has had to master the art of corporate politics.
"When my second daughter was born, I was at MTV running the promo department," she recalls. "I had hired someone to sit in for me while I was gone. And then I kept getting calls from my assistant saying, 'This person you hired is out to get your job.' So I came in one day a week during maternity leave."
Now she's going to be working at a much more ferocious pace as OWN ramps up to launch Jan. 1. Among the programming, Norman is supervising Oprah Presents Master Class, in which Winfrey will speak with icons including Jay-Z, Diane Sawyer and Condoleezza Rice; a new Rosie O'Donnell Show; and programs featuring King, Sarah Ferguson and Shania Twain.
"It's just weeks before the start of this bold new undertaking," Norman says. "It is incredibly exciting, energizing. I am anxious, proud and exhausted, and we all feel this every single day." She pauses, tired, but prepared to soldier on.
"It is so important that everyone deliver," she says. "That's what it is about. Put your head down and get it done."

58. Leah Weil
Senior Exec VP/General Counsel, Sony Pictures
Managing a legal staff 250 strong, Weil leaves the nitty-gritty production problems to them. However, two movies this year consumed her attention. The Social Network presented legal obstacles because it was based on real people. "I spent a lot of personal time on that film," she says. "But since there are so many interesting issues, I don't think of the legal analysis as shoot-me-now work." The other was The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, which required an extensive rights negotiation. "I didn't want to read the script before I finished the book," she says. "Not to be too hokey, but I was hooked."
59. Shonda Rhimes
Creator, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice
The Chicago native and USC film school grad never thought she'd end up writing for film or television. "I fully, truly believed that I was going to be a novelist," she says. "My goal was to be Toni Morrison." That changed after Rhimes launched her TV career by penning HBO's Introducing Dorothy Dandridge in 1999 and went on to write screenplays for The Princess Diaries and its sequel. Since then, she has made a career reinventing the medical drama. She has two successful ABC dramas — Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice — on the air, and the midseason Doctors Without Borders-inspired drama Off the Map is set to premiere in January. Rhimes still chuckles at the fact she's known for her medical dramas. "I was a candy striper in high school," she says. "While I considered being a doctor briefly, I realized early on I had absolutely no affinity for science whatsoever."
60. Nancy Kirkpatrick
President of Worldwide Marketing, Summit Entertainment
Her devotion to work may mean it's something of a surprise that movies never were Kirkpatrick's dream job: A near-professional ice skater in her youth, she initially moved from Virginia to Los Angeles in hope of landing a job in sports marketing, only to be scooped up by Warner Bros. One of the first hires Rob Friedman made when he teamed with Patrick Wachsberger in 2007 to launch Summit was Kirkpatrick, a staffer from his Paramount days. It's hardly surprising as Kirkpatrick is tough, shrewd and — after a couple of initial mistakes at Summit — brilliant. Case in point: Summit's vampire phenomenon The Twilight Saga, whose latest installment, Eclipse, has earned more than $690 million worldwide. Summit also boasts this year's best picture Oscar winner, The Hurt Locker. Her top moment, though? Meeting George Harrison. "It's hard to recover from your first Beatle," she says.
61. Claudia Lewis
President of Production, Fox Searchlight
Lewis has been especially busy this year, shepherding a mix of urban dramedies including Just Right and Our Family Wedding and such awards contenders as Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan, Mark Romanek's Never Let Me Go, the Duplass brothers' Cyrus and Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire follow-up, 127 Hours. "We were fascinated, surprised and incredibly curious about how [Boyle] intended to tell the story — and how we'd sell the thing," Lewis jokes. The UC Berkeley grad, who worked at the school's respected Pacific Film Archive, is perhaps the most well-traveled woman on this list: During the past year alone, she has been to India, Fiji and taken an architecture tour of Cuba. "It's all really well-preserved, from midcentury buildings to the great older stuff," she says. "A real colonial vibe."
62. Katherine Pope
President of Television, Chernin Entertainment
Today, comfortably ensconced in boss Peter Chernin's new Santa Monica offices, Pope says the company's growing pains have been worth it. "We don't say, 'Here's what works for us,' which frees you up to be more open and take more risks," she says. Pope took her share of risks at her gig as president of Universal Media Studios, including the series House, Heroes, The Office, 30 Rock and Friday Night Lights. None of Chernin's series — which include the anticipated Terra Nova (Fox), Breakout Kings (A&E) and Seek and Destroy (Showtime) — has hit the air yet, "so we have a perfect track record," she says with a laugh. Although her work might be all about high drama and big laughs, she insists her private life is anything but. "I'm the most boring person in the world," admits Pope, a chronic bookworm who is expecting her second child in the spring with her husband, documentary filmmaker and writer Richard E. Robbins. "You could have surveillance on me 24/7; it would be fine."
63. Hylda Queally
Motion Picture Talent Agent, CAA
Today, 21 years after Queally left her own small agency in Dublin, her Gaelic accent largely has faded, but her client list retains a foreign flavor. Cate Blanchett, Marion Cotillard and Penelope Cruz have won Oscars under her guidance. She has placed others in such international tentpoles as Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (Cruz and Astrid Berges-Frisbey), Rise of the Apes (Freida Pinto) and Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol (Lea Seydoux). Her U.S.-born talents, including Michelle Williams (Blue Valentine) and Evan Rachel Wood (the HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce), also work nonstop. Queally's workload leaves little time for outside interests. "If you're going to spend time away from your children, it better be worth it," she says.
The Woman Who Has Most Inspired Me: "The woman who's inspired me: producer Kathleen Kennedy. When I came here from Ireland in 1989. I didn't know anybody in the industry. I searched through [the Hollywood Creative Directory] to find a female and came across one with an Irish name, and thought that I should reach out to her. She was, and continues to be, a great source of support."
64. Michelle Bohan Partner
Talent Agent, WME
Bohan's first job as an assistant at Triad Artists, where she shared a desk with now-CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler, didn't launch her on an immediate path to success. "I was the outside Rolodex girl, and Nina was the inside girl," Bohan says with a laugh. Now, after 19 years as an agent, Bohan has made up for the slow start, repping two of the biggest names in comedy: Tina Fey and Steve Carell. In addition to adding Allison Janney and British actress Lucy Punch to her roster this year, the self-professed news junkie signed MSNBC's Chris Matthews, taking her back to her first love: politics. "I always say I'm a lobbyist, but in a different way," Bohan says.
65. Rebecca Prentice
Executive VP/General Counsel, Paramount
Prentice most recently took the point in negotiating an agreement with Disney whereby Paramount was paid at least $115 million for distribution rights to Iron Man 3, The Avengers and other Marvel properties. She also led a team that negotiated a deal that gave Netflix rights to stream thousands of Paramount films. Prentice also manages a 60-lawyer department that works to protect the studio content from digital theft. When not at work, Prentice likes to rock-climb and knit. "I like getting to the end, whether it's a complicated deal or the top of the mountain, where I can enjoy the gorgeous view," she says.
66. Maren Christensen
Executive VP/General Counsel, Universal Studios
Christensen is one of Hollywood's leading advocates for copyright reform. More recently, she has been busy contending with the regulatory review of Comcast's acquisition of NBC Universal. Each week, the Department of Justice and FCC question how the proposed merger would work and whether it would be good for consumers and competition. "There's been a lot of work on my end playing traffic cop and getting the right information to the right people to give everyone comfort about this deal," she says. A good day for Christensen is when she isn't seen. "You just hope you aren't profiled on the front page of the Times," she adds.
67. Beth Roberts
Executive VP, NBC Universal Cable Entertainment/Business Affairs
At the helm of business affairs for NBC Uni's cable division, Roberts has led negotiations on some of the company's biggest hits, from Bravo's The Real Housewives to USA Network's Burn Notice. She also is part of a five-person team helping NBC Uni begin to produce its own shows, including Warehouse 13 on Syfy and Royal Pains and Covert Affairs on USA. In her free time, she is writing a book on finding a soulmate online and counts the exact number of steps in her workout routine each day. "I'm on the phone 90 percent of the time, so I try to make up for it by getting outside and using a pedometer to make sure I'm doing enough physical activity," she says.
68. Bridget Baker
President of Distribution, NBC Universal
"It makes my brain hurt," Baker says about the on-demand world she now faces — so different from the TV world she entered as the third person hired by CNBC more than 20 years ago. How can it be uncomplicated when the Alaska native's gig involved all things related to NBC Universal's content delivery: Executing all-in distribution deals with top multichannel video programming distributors, including DirecTV, Dish Network and Time Warner Cable, she is all about getting programming on as many platforms as possible. One thing that hasn't changed is her 10-minute daily commute — on a mint-green bicycle. "I was doing it long before it was 'green,' " she says.
The Woman Who Has Most Inspired Me: "Michelle Obama. I like smart, engaged women who walk their talk. She resonates for me as a parent, a mother and a career woman. She manages to be this great mom, role model and fashion icon who doesn't compromise easily."
69. Bernardine Brandis
Executive VP Business and Legal Affairs, Disney
Brandis has helped Disney incorporate the Marvel brand after a $4 billion acquisition and given guidance on the recent ramp-up to the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. Brandis also gives her two cents when active producers including Jerry Bruckheimer and Scott Rudin do major work under Disney's umbrella. The most surprising thing about her? She has an encyclopedic knowledge of rap stars and sheepishly admits that her favorite is Eminem. "He's too traditional and mainstream, but I love him anyway," she says.
The Woman Who Has Most Inspired Me: "Eleanor Roosevelt. At a time when she was expected to shut up, she was vocal anyway and pushed for universal rights. She brought real class to her role as first lady."
70. Melanie Cook
Partner, Ziffren Brittenham
Injuries from triathlons and heli-skiing have forced the self-admitted adrenaline junkie to scale back her aggressive lifestyle. Now, she only rides a bike and river-rafts the Grand Canyon. Cook is still pushing it in the deal room, but instead of sticking by hard salary quotes for such clients as Tim Burton and Scott Rudin, she has been going for pool profit participation on recent deals involving The Social Network and Alice in Wonderland. This past year, Cook put together House executive producer Katie Jacobs' first-look deal at Fox, Rudin's deal for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and Winnie Holzman's deal to develop a film adaptation of Wicked. Cook also is involved in building houses for the Hollywood chapter Habitat for Humanity. "There are a lot of people in this town who wouldn't want to see me with a nail gun in my hand," she says.
71. Jeanne Newman
Partner, Jacobson, Hansen, Hoberman, Teller
Newman estimates that she negotiates 10-15 nonscripted television deals a day, including big ones like new seasons of Big Brother and The Marriage Ref on behalf of client Endemol and a new season of Top Chef on behalf of Magical Elves. Other deals appear smaller at first: Little did she know that when she introduced Ryan Seacrest to Jamie Oliver that the partnership would translate into an Emmy win (for Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution). "It was fun sitting with them at the Emmys," she says. When she isn't working, Newman and her husband, 20th Century Fox chairman Gary Newman, run the Jorian Hill winery in Santa Barbara County.
The Woman Who Has Most Inspired Me: "Patty Glaser. She is the person who first hired me. She's the bravest person I know and she's absolutely fearless. Sometimes I go to bed hoping my clients can afford her if they ever get into trouble."
72. Anne Globe
Head of Worldwide Marketing, DreamWorks Animation
Globe's masterful marketing skills helped How to Train Your Dragon gross nearly $500 million worldwide and the November entry Megamind top the domestic box office during its first two weeks of release. Then there was the final chapter in the Shrek franchise, Shrek Forever After, which became the company's highest-grossing international release with $735 million. Although DWA's myriad projects require Globe — who has worked on all four Shreks during her 14 years at the company — to be a juggler at work, she's more of a dancer at home. "I have a little dance barre in my house," says the executive, who also has taken 15 years of tap classes.
The Woman Who Has Most Inspired Me: "Hillary Clinton. I admire her work ethic and her intelligence. I had the opportunity to meet her once in person, and she's tremendously articulate and a real presence. On a one-on-one basis, you felt like she really was connecting with you. That's a unique and impressive quality, and she continues to work very hard to do the right thing."
73. Deborah Barak
Executive VP Business Affairs, CBS Network Television Entertainment Group
Barak started as an associate at O'Melveny & Myers in the litigation department before she yearned to find a "different life, balancing career and family." She joined CBS in 1985 in the broadcast department and during the next 25 years has moved her way up the chain of command, with stints supervising in-house productions, serving as associate general counsel and head of the business affairs department. Today, Barak supervises the negotiation of talent and producer deals and license fees; recent accomplishments include bringing back all three CSI series as well as negotiating extensions for David Letterman and Craig Ferguson. Barak has worked on innovative contracts including these used on Survivor, which make contestants pay millions of dollars if they blab secrets. "It's intellectually challenging to rethink how deals are made," she says.
74. Blair Kohan
Partner/Motion Picture Agent, UTA
Kohan presides over as much fun at home as she does at work. The comedy-queen agent is married to David Kohan, co-creator of Will & Grace and $#*! My Dad Says, and shares laughs with their 2-year-old daughter, Nora — that's when she's not doing serious business for clients who include such masters of comedy as writer-director Judd Apatow, his frequent collaborators Paul Rudd and Seth Rogen, the writing team of Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley (Horrible Bosses, Burt Wonderstone) and filmmakers such as Mark Pellington (I Melt With You). Kohan attended boarding school in New Jersey, studied writing at Sarah Lawrence College before relocating to L.A. to begin a stint as an agent trainee at Bauer Benedek (one of the firms that merged to form UTA). She only returned to agenting when she joined UTA for good in 1997 after working in feature development at Brillstein Grey, as vp production for Oliver Stone and as a production executive at Fox-based Horizon Entertainment. "It's the longest relationship in my life," she jokes.
75. Jo Ann Ross
President of Network Sales, CBS
Ross is the longest-serving head of a network sales division — she also was the first female to have held that job when she took it in 2002 — and leads one of the most stable staffs in the business. February's Super Bowl "set the tone for the year," she says, when her team sold out its inventory before going to air. Despite the economic challenges of the past few years, the New York-based executive has led CBS to another record-breaking upfront, her fifth in a row. She also is overseeing an NCAA joint advertising venture with Turner and is active in two cancer charities: City of Hope and Memorial Sloan-Kettering.
Selection Criteria: For The Hollywood Reporter's annual Women in Entertainment Power 100 issue, editors based their selection of candidates and ranking on the following: 1. Revenue generated for their companies; 2. valuation of assets; 3. number of employees overseen; 4. impact and influence within the film and television industries; 5. ability to get projects greenlighted or proximity to greenlight power; and 6. reputation (general standing within the entertainment community, in addition to achievements).

The Waratahs were the only Australian team to feature in the finals last season and some new faces should make them confident of reaching the knockout stage again – but are they still top dogs in their conference?
In the eighth part of our 2019 Super Rugby preview series, it's time to analyse the Waratahs.
The Waratahs started 2018 off in blistering fashion, collecting five wins and a draw from their first seven matches. While they lost four of their next five, a lack of competitiveness from the rest of the Australian Conference meant their finals spot was never seriously under threat.
Regardless, they recovered. Four wins from their final six matches saw them qualify for the finals for the first time since 2015, and their Round 14 win over the Highlanders saw them become the first Australian side to defeat a New Zealand franchise since Round 1, 2017.
They then got past the Highlanders with a stirring second-half comeback on home soil, but were outclassed by the Lions in the semi-final.
Rugby can be a simple game sometimes; score more than your opponent and you win the game. For the Waratahs, scoring – and generally being a nuisance with the ball in hand – is their speciality.
Fresh off a campaign that saw them lead the league with 767 run metres and 9.4 line busts a game, while finishing just behind the Crusaders with 34.1 points per match, the Tahs are set to threaten the try line continuously again this year.
Like the Brumbies, some low-risk acquisitions in Adam Ashley-Cooper and Karmichael Hunt could pay off massively for the club but, if they don't, they haven't exactly mortgaged the house on them making an impact. Even if the veteran duo don't fire, a backline featuring Israel Folau, Bernard Foley and Kurtley Beale is rarely going to struggle to score.
Jack Dempsey's return from injury this year after missing all of 2018 is a major boost for the side, too. His presence alongside young flanker Will Miller and skipper Michael Hooper gives the Waratahs some impressive back-row depth.
Unlike some other sides around them, the Waratahs haven't lost too many big names. That said, Taqele Naiyaravoro is a big loss on the scoring front. His barnstorming running was lethal close to the opposition tryline, but was also valuable down the other end of the field in helping New South Wales out of their red zone.
The high-octane game may favour the Tahs most of the time, but their defensive efforts aren't much to write home about. Their missed tackle numbers were some of the worst in Super Rugby last season, while their run metres and points conceded numbers were right up there too.
The biggest issue this season, however, might be the fact that the Australian Conference won't necessarily be full of easybeats this season. Seven of the Waratahs' nine wins last season came from within the group so, if other teams – let's call them the Rebels – have actually improved as much as people say they have, the going could be a whole lot tougher.
While the Waratahs thoroughly deserved their semi-final appearance and were definitely competitive more often than not last season, there's no denying they benefited from playing in a weak conference.
The team certainly haven't got weaker in the off-season but, with the heat in the Australian Conference being turned up just enough, they may struggle to repeat last year's success in 2019.
They should still be good for a finals berth, but only just.

Of all the drugs used to treat herpes, acyclovir is the most common. So, how does it work? The devil is in the details ... and the details are fascinating.
Tea tree oil is one of the most popular (and profitable) fads around right now. The Internet is bursting with health claims for just about every malady known to mankind. Could it be useful for treating herpes? Maybe. Here's a lesson in how antiviral drugs are discovered.
There's never been a therapeutic vaccine for any infectious disease, and there isn't one on the horizon. But there are plenty of drugs that work quite well for infections: antibiotics, antifungals and antivirals.
Vical continues to push its VCL-HB01 herpes vaccine through development. Larry Smith, Ph.D., the senior VP of Research, answers some questions about where things stand now and what to expect in the near future.
Over nearly a century, vaccines for genital herpes have come and gone. Make that gone and gone, because there's not a single vaccine that can treat or prevent either oral or genital herpes. But some good news might be coming from Vical, when phase II results of its VCL-HB01 vaccine is released, hopefully in mid-2018.


A Waterloo man has risen through the ranks of the St. Louis Cardinals' front office, so much so that he was named general manager of its Triple A minor league baseball affiliate this week.
Craig Unger, a Gibault Catholic High School graduate who has worked in the Cardinals organization since 2008, has been chosen to serve as general manager of the Memphis Redbirds.
Unger, who has a background in radio and sales, played a key role in the organization's recent acquisition of the Redbirds. He has worked as an account executive in marketing and corporate sales for the Cardinals.
The Memphis Redbirds are the third minor league team owned and operated by the Cardinals. The Palm Beach Cardinals were purchased in 2002, and the Springfield Cardinals were purchased in 2005.
Unger has spent the past few months in Memphis assisting with the ownership transition, and will permanently relocate with his family as he takes over daily management of the Redbirds.
Unger is credited for playing an essential role in returning the team's radio broadcasts to KMOX 1120 AM, coordinating the 2011 World Series victory parade and securing a partnership with Mercy Medical Center as official medical provider of the Cardinals.

Q: Regex how can i get only exact part in a string I should only catch numbers which are fit the rules.
Rules:

*

*it should be 16 digit

*first 11 digit can be any number

*after 3 digit should have all zero

*last two digit can be any number.

I did this way;
([0-9]{11}[0]{3}[0-9]{2})

number example:
1234567890100012
now I want to get the number even it has got any letter beginning or ending of the string like " abc1234567890100012abc"
my output should be just number like "1234567890100012"
When I add [a-zA-Z]* it gives all string.
Also another point is if there is any number beginning or ending of the string like "999912345678901000129999". program shouldn't take this. I mean It should return none or nothing.  How can I write this with  regex.

A: You can use look around to exclude the cases where there are more digits before/after:
(?<!\d)\d{11}000\d\d(?!\d)
On regex101

A: You can use a capture group, and match optional chars a-zA-Z before and after the group.
To prevent a partial match, you can use word boundaries \b or if the string should match from the start and end of the line you can use anchors ^ and $
\b[a-zA-Z]*([0-9]{11}000[0-9]{2})[a-zA-Z]*\b

Made in an extra long length, our rolling pin is crafted in the USA of genuine American maple with a sturdy steel axle, making it extremely effective at rolling out all types of pastry dough. It has the same familiar and reliable feel as the one grandma used in her kitchen. So go ahead - get your very own American-made rolling pin today, and join the Jacob Bromwell® tradition - a tradition unlike any other.


Substitute apple juice for bourbon, if you prefer. Look for bunches of carrots that are all about the same size so they'll cook evenly. If some are too big--or if you can't find real (sometimes labeled French) baby carrots--just peel the bigger ones and halve them lengthwise before roasting.
Place a small roasting pan in oven. Preheat oven and pan to 500°.
Cut tops from carrots, leaving 1 inch of greenery on each carrot.
Stir together olive oil and 1 Tbsp. butter in preheated pan. Add carrots, salt, and pepper; toss to coat. Bake 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallot; sauté 1 minute. Remove from heat, and stir in bourbon and next 2 ingredients. Return to heat, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium, and cook 5 minutes or until mixture is syrupy.
Drizzle syrup over carrots; toss to coat. Bake 5 to 7 more minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender. Transfer to a serving dish, and sprinkle with thyme.
Teens especially liked this. The pepper and the honey provide a great contrast.

Q: Why didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError returns an error == nil? In my AppDelegate.m file I register for remote notifications in APN(Apple Push Notifications), as usual.
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] registerForRemoteNotifications];
and I have both callbacks methods implemented
- (void) application:(UIApplication*)application didRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithDeviceToken:(NSData*)deviceToken {...}
- (void)application:(UIApplication*)application didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError:(NSError*)error {...}
At this time, didFailToRegisterForRemoteNotificationsWithError is always called but the error associated is nil. So I can't find the reason of the failure.
Now here come the stranger things.

*

*I have several targets based on the same code, and the rest of them
are working properly with the push notifications of APN's. But one
is not.

*I'm 99,9% that the project configuration for the APN is right, because:

*

*The app has been working on production for several years, without any
problem with APNs

*Other apps based on the same code are working properly with APNs.

*I have tested the app in old devices with iOS12 and I'm able to
registerForRemoteNotifications, and I'm receiving push
notifications in TestFlight. The same version of TestFlight is not
working with iSO14

The last point makes me think that maybe the problem comes with iOS14 but I'm not able to find why, as the other targets are registering without any problem in APN on iOS14 devices.
This app is based in Objective-C mixed with Swift. Xcode Version 12.2 (12B45b).

*

*Tested on iPhone SE (1st) and iPhone 11 both with iOS 14.2. (Not able
to register in APN)

*Tested on iPhone 6 and iPhone 11 both with iOS 12.4.9 (Able to register with exactly the same code)


Membership matters because the local church visibly represents God's kingdom on earth. The Spirit appointed leaders over identifiable congregations (Acts 20:28; 1 Pet 5:2-3). Churches submitted to particular elders (1 Thess 5:12-13; Heb 13:17). Discipline occured among an identifiable assembly (Matt 18:17-20; 1 Cor 5:1-13). Interdependence was expressed by each body member (Rom 12:4-16; 1 Cor 12:12-31). The Christian life involves a corporate dimension (Rom 16:1-5; 1 Tim 5:9-18; Heb 10:25). Together, these observations make membership to a local church crucial. Therefore, membership is required if one desires to serve in any ministry representing Redeemer Church. You can read more on the importance of church membership here.
How does one join Redeemer Church?
On this side of the cross and resurrection, the way Jesus Christ makes his heavenly authority visible on earth is through local churches filled with baptized believers submitting to his reign, walking in step with his commandments, and growing everyday in obedience to him (Matt 16:18-19; 18:15-20; 28:18-20). Local churches are God's "object-lesson" of divine wisdom, his tangible reminder that through Christ's person and work God disarmed the rulers and authorities, broke the power of sin, and is subjecting all things to the risen Christ (Eph 1:9-10, 20-21; 3:10-11; Col 3:15; Heb 2:14; cf. 1 Cor 15:24).
Therefore, it is incumbent upon the elders and members of Redeemer Church to maintain the distinction between the world, whom we desire to experience the liberating power of the gospel, and those whose lives authenticate the liberating power of the gospel. To help preserve this important distinction between the world and the church and to help disciple people in their relationship to Christ and his church, the following measures of care exist in the process of joining Redeemer Church.
For Discipleship. Whether you just recently professed faith in Jesus Christ or have been walking with him for decades, our chief aim in Membership Matters is your discipleship. Our foremost desire is to equip you in submitting to the authority of Jesus Christ and treasuring the gospel that is "of first importance" (Matt 28:18-20; 1 Cor 15:1-4). In particular, we see this course teaching Jesus-followers to obey all that he has commanded in regard to the visible expression of his kingdom on earth, the local church, and living with each other in it through the power of the gospel.
For Unity. Moreover, by offering a common teaching from Scripture for all who pursue membership at Redeemer Church, we hope to preserve the unity of the Spirit. That does not mean Membership Matters is the only occasion on which we together seek unity; such active and intentional pursuit of unity should characterize the whole of our lives together (e.g., Acts 4:32; Eph 4:1-3; Phil 2:1-6; Col 3:14). Nevertheless, by instilling within all who enter our church the fundamentals of Christian living in community, we're further equipped to respond in Christ-honoring ways when the world, our flesh, and the devil threaten our unity. Moreover, we hope the materials in this class will contribute to your discernment about whether to join Redeemer Church or seek membership at another faithful, gospel-preaching church.
For Mission. Lastly, we want to ensure that all who join Redeemer Church are familiar with the various avenues for service and outreach to the world as well as the biblical passions driving them. Membership Matters should acquaint you with how the Bible presents God's passion to make his name famous through his people and how we unite together to serve in contexts of local ministries and frontier missions (Hab 2:14; Rom 15:8-21; 16:25-27).
While walking through the membership process, we'd urge you to begin participating in a Care Group that meets in closest proximity to your home. Alongside Gathered Worship and Members Meetings, Care Groups exists as one of the primary care structures within Redeemer Church. Proximity enables such care to occur more frequently as we see taking place in the early church (e.g., Acts 2:46-47; 20:20; Rom 12:13; 16:5). In fact, proximity makes it all the more possible for us to fulfill the "one-anothers" of Scripture such as exhorting one another every day (Heb 3:12-14), bearing one another's burdens (Gal 6:2), and confessing our sins to and praying for one another (Jas 5:16). Proximity also serves evangelism efforts to a particular neighborhood or region a Care Group decides to target strategically (cf. 1 Cor 9:19-23).
Once finished with Membership Matters, a person must complete two forms expressing their willingness to join Redeemer Church. The first is the Church Covenant & Discipline form, which ensures that the individual has read the Redeemer Church Covenant, the Redeemer Statement of Faith, and the Statement on Church Discipline, and is willing to commit to all in good conscience. The second is the Membership Profile form, which is simply a tool to help us know you better and come to understand your spiritual background more clearly. Both forms are available by request or accessible online at the following links: Church Covenant & Discipline form; Membership Profile form.
The purpose of this conversation is two-fold. First, the conversation provides a context for everyone desiring membership at Redeemer Church to ask any questions of the church's leadership they may have, share any remaining concerns, and testify to the Lord's saving grace in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Second, the conversation provides a context for the elders to hear one's profession of faith in Jesus Christ, ask questions that help discern one's consideration for membership, and guide the potential member in the way that would be most beneficial for their own soul and the overall health of Redeemer Church.
This last measure of care provides opportunity for the elders to recommend someone for covenant membership, for the congregation to hear their confession of and trust in the gospel of Jesus Christ, and for the members to affirm corporately one's joining membership at Redeemer. Those still desiring membership will attend a members meeting to testify of the Lord's redeeming work in their own lives and their desire to join and serve the Redeemer body. If no Scriptural concerns exist, the membership will vote to receive each candidate into membership and commit to serving alongside them in the love of Christ and strength of God's Spirit.


George Byron Gordon led expeditions to Copan at the end of the nineteenth century and, with his brother MacLaren Gordon, to Alaska in 1905 and 1907. As Professor at the University of Pennsylvania and as Director of the Museum, Gordon was first to conduct regular lectures to undergraduate and graduate students in Anthropology and oversaw one of the the largest periods of Museum growth. The G.B. Gordon Central America collection includes diaries, surveying notes, reports and stories from the Copan Expeditions and the Yucatan Expedition in 1910, original stories, articles, and book reviews written by Dr. Gordon, communication with The British Museum about Maya site excavation, Gordon's introductions composed for speakers for the Saturday Afternoon Lecture Series, speeches to professional organizations, and class lectures.

Q: Reference to Javascript Library in Typescript project My Project is in Typescript. In this project I want to refer or import another Javascript UI Library. Is there a Way of just importing them and NOT checking the Namespaces for those libraries while doing the "tsc".
For example, suppose the JS UI library has some classes called jsMyLibrary.ui.Button. My requirement is that while my tsc is running, it should not check for any string starting with jsMyLibrary*

A: The default behaviour of tsc is to compile all .ts, .d.ts and .tsx files in your project. Javascript files will not be compiled unless this is specified in tsconfig.json. If 'jsMyLibrary' does contain some .ts or .d.ts files in the library and you don't want to compile these, it is possible to exclude certain files/file patterns in tsconfig.json:
"exclude": ["jsMyLibrary/**/*.ts"]

"exclude" defaults to some folders such as node_modules if it is not specified, read more about it here

Every electrical structure or object -- from hand blenders to factory machines -- has a set of design or drafting diagrams to accompany it. Electrical inventions do not just pop out of thin air; they are carefully designed by a team of electrical engineers and drafting technologists. Electrical drafters support the work of engineers and architects by preparing and producing technical drawings used to build everything electrical. Using industry standards and regulations, they perform calculations and research prior to creating designs. Their drawings technically explain the details of products and structures, specify materials to be used and procedures to be taken. Electrical drafters will usually write a technical report to accompany the drawings, including cost estimates.
Electrical drafters serve as the intermediary between engineers and technicians. They perform functions such as designing electrical installations, determining the fault level of current, coordinating relays and completing a harmonic analysis of a feeder circuit. Electrical drafters work in areas like power systems and protection, electrical design or field testing, construction, industrial automation, industrial networks and communication, electrical maintenance, system operations, metering, energy management, lighting design, programmable logic controllers and technical sales.
Electrical drafters complete the technical details of a design project using calculations previously made by electrical engineers. For example, they use their knowledge of machines to determine how to design with the proper elements. They are also involved in related activities such as estimating, contract administration, and specification preparation. Traditionally, the drafting element of this job involved hand drawing blue prints and designs, but with the increase in computer-aided design (CAD) systems, almost all design now takes place on computers.
In fact, some electrical drafters are often referred to as CAD technologists or technicians. Electrical drafters use CAD systems create realistic geometric models of objects which can simulate and analyze the effects and potential problems of designs. The system sorts drawings electronically so that revisions, variations and duplications can easily be made. Although electronic drafters use CAD extensively, it is still only a computer tool. In other words, drafters should still possess design skills and have extensive knowledge of electronics equipment in addition to CAD skills.
They may work independently, in teams with electrical design engineers or as support for engineers and industrial designers. Electronic drafters are required to constantly update their skills and knowledge in order to keep up with technological advancements in this quickly changing field.
Electrical drafters will possess the ability to adapt to changes and adopt new ideas and have an aptitude for mathematics and science. They can draft and interpret plans and diagrams, troubleshoot circuits and test materials and products. They can identify and choose colors for safety, and work with a variety of different people or on their own.
Electrical drafters should enjoy working with tools, computers, instruments and machinery at tasks requiring precision. They also enjoy taking a methodical approach to analyzing problems and finding innovative solutions.
Most electrical drafters work standard hours in engineering, consulting or sales offices. Longer hours may be required to meet deadlines. A typical day is spent designing on the computer however; drafters will also work in laboratories testing their designs. They must cautiously follow safety procedures to avoid injury or death from electrical shock.
Electrical drafters work for electrical and electronic suppliers, utility companies and industrial plants, electrical and construction contractors, engineering consulting firms, manufacturers and distributors, agencies for electrical industry de-regulation, government and regulatory agencies, building and industrial maintenance firms, and oil and gas companies.
There is definite room for advancement as an electrical drafter. Entry-level positions involve heavy supervision, but with experience, most electrical drafters develop greater competency and advance to positions in the management or supervisory nature. Electrical drafters may also advance to senior drafting positions, taking on larger, more complex problems. With more education, some may go on to become engineers or architects. Experienced electrical drafters may also establish their own businesses.
Completion of a two- or three-year college program in electrical engineering drafting technology is usually required for electrical drafters. A certification in electrical drafting technology or a related field is available through associations of engineering or applied science technologists and technicians, and may be required for some positions.
Since a great deal of electrical drafting work takes place on the computer, taking courses in CAD systems is useful for obtaining employment.


A service member is eligible for TSGLI benefits if they meet certain criteria determined by the program. The injury does not have to be combat related and will not affect other Veteran's Affairs (VA) disability claims.
If you were injured either on-duty or off-duty while serving in the United States Armed Forces, active duty, National Guard, or reserve, you may qualify for a tax-free benefit of up to $100,000.
The Traumatic Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (TSGLI) program provides automatic traumatic injury coverage to everyone covered under the Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) program. The program helps injured service members and their families alleviate financial burdens with a payment ranging from $25,000 to $100,000. The injury does not have to be combat related or service connected and will not affect other Veteran's Affairs (VA) disability claims.
As an example an Army Reserve member can recover under the TSGLI program if they were injured in a motorcycle accident or on a Wednesday night unrelated to reserve activity.
However, the U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs requires that service members file a claim with the government to receive these benefits, using form SGLV 8600. A 2009 U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) study found that the VA approved fewer than 63% of claims filed for a traumatic brain injury. The GAO further found that the program lacked consistency across branches and lacked assurances that decisions about benefit payments were accurate. Although the VA and Department of Defense took steps to improve the program, the VA still routinely denies claims even when the injury appears to qualify for payment of benefits.
Following a traumatic injury, it can be difficult to find and collect the documentation necessary to receive your benefits. The Kishish Law Group can help you determine whether you qualify for a claim and assist you in the TSGLI claim process, giving you the best chance at receiving the largest benefit possible. Complete our contact form below or call us now for a free and confidential case evaluation at 1 (888) 402-5552.
If your traumatic injury resulted in limitations on performing two or more Activities of Daily Living (ADL) for at least 30 days, you may qualify for a TSGLI claim on those limitations alone. The ADL include bathing, continence, dressing, eating, toileting, and transferring. If you require physical or verbal assistance to perform these tasks due to your injury, or require someone to be within arm's reach because of fluctuating ability, you may be eligible for a TSGLI benefit.
The Veteran's Benefits Improvement Act of 2010 expanded retroactive payments of TSGLI benefits. If you suffered a traumatic injury between October 7, 2001 and November 30, 2005, you may qualify for one of these retroactive payments, even if you did not pay for SGLI coverage. Although initially these retroactive payments were only available to service members that suffered injuries overseas as a part of Operations Enduring or Iraqi Freedom, Congress expanded these benefits to apply to any service member serving during this time regardless of where the injury occurred.
Do I have TSGLI claim?
The Kishish Law Group is committed to ensuring that our service men and women receive the benefits to which they are entitled. If you would like assistance in determining whether you are qualified for a TSGLI claim, help assembling that claim, or guidance through the appeal process, we can help. Let us focus on bureaucracy while you focus on recovery. Contact us using our contact form or call us at 1 (888) 402-5552.
If you were injured while serving in the United States Armed Forces, active duty, National Guard, or reserve, you may qualify. Contact Kishish Law Group immediately.

GoFundMe for homeless vet raises $400k, creators keep most of it
View south along U.S. Route 1 at the exit for Interstate 95 South (Philadelphia). (Famartin/WikiCommons)
August 31, 2018 Cheryl Hinneburg
A woman set up a GoFundMe account last October to raise money for a homeless vet who gave her his last $20 for gas to get home when she ran out on Interstate 95 in Philadelphia.
Kate McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D'Amico, wanted to show their appreciation to Johnny Bobbitt for saving the day, so they set up the GoFundMe, CBS 6 News reported.
They raised a total of $402,706 within nine months for Bobbitt, but he has not seen most of the money.
Bobbitt's lawyer Chris Fallon said: "From what I can see, the GoFundMe account raised $402,000 and GoFundMe charged a fee of approximately $30,000. Mark D'Amico and Kate McClure gave Johnny about $75,000. There should be close to another $300,000 available to Johnny."
Fallon and attorney Jacqueline Promislo are trying to secure a guardian to manage the raised money so the 14,000 contributors know where their donations went, and the lawyers will work towards getting it back.
GoFundMe misuse is uncommon, but the crowdfunding website "is looking into the claims regarding this campaign."
They released a statement: "When there is a dispute, we work with all parties involved to ensure funds go to the right place. We will work to ensure that Johnny receives the help he deserves and that the donors' intentions are honored."
With the raised funds, Bobbitt was supposed to get a house, but instead, the couple bought him a camper and parked it in their New Jersey driveway.
Bobbitt wanted to go home to North Carolina where he would have more resources available to him. This is when problems arose between Bobbitt and McClure.
Bobbitt's lawyer said: "He had no access to money or food while living in the camper or the ability to take care of himself there."
McClure and D'Amico bought a truck that was supposed to belong to Bobbitt, however, the couple drove the truck which eventually broke down.
The couple, who has been unavailable for comment, said in an earlier interview that Bobbitt suffers from a drug addiction. They said they have given Bobbitt at least half of what was raised and are holding the remaining funds until he is employed and drug-free.
Fallon confirmed his client's drug problem and said, "It's not heroin or opioids but another drug problem."
D'Amico said he oversees the money and he defends withholding the money from Bobbitt. He compares giving such a large amount of money to an addict to that of giving someone a loaded gun.
The couple purchased a brand new BMW and vacationed in California, Florida and Las Vegas since the money was raised, but claim they didn't spend any of the raised money.
Bobbitt, who is a North Carolina native, studied nursing and was a former paramedic, firefighter, and U.S. Marine. He currently lives on the streets in Philadelphia.
Bobbitt allegedly completed a methadone program and detoxed himself.

Nice job of framing this scene!

Very cool Tom. Excellent composition.
WOW! Black and white works so well on this image! Love the lines! Excellent capture!
I thought the abstract lines and curves of this roller coaster would look cool as a black and white panoramic. A visual ride for your mind. A roller coaster is an amusement ride developed for amusement parks and modern theme parks. LaMarcus Adna Thompson obtained a patent regarding roller coasters on January 20, 1885, which were made out of wood, but this patent is considerably later than the "Russian mountains" described below. In essence a specialized railroad system, a roller coaster consists of a track that rises in designed patterns, sometimes with one or more inversions (such as vertical loops) that briefly turn the rider upside down. The track does not necessarily have to be a complete circuit, as shuttle roller coasters demonstrate. Most roller coasters have multiple cars in which passengers sit and are restrained. Two or more cars hooked together are called a train. Some roller coasters, notably wild mouse roller coasters, run with single cars.

Glass kills birds—that's not news. Decades of research by ornithologist Daniel Klem estimates up to a billion avian mortalities from North American buildings each year, a number that experts say is widely shared and recognized. But despite its scope, moves to solve the problem have been comparably small and slow.

WATTOPERS Turn 50s: Celebrating 38 Years of Brotherhood - Part 3 (Puasa)
I have more memories about life at MRSM KB but given that we are now celebrating Ramadan, I will try to recall moments which were interesting and meaningful when fasting at the college.
Ramadan certainly meant different things to each of us. Some saw this as an opportunity to be closer to God while some felt it was the time that they could not eat, in public, again.
Like many other people, fasting started with Sahur, or the early breakfast. For us this meant waking up around 4 o'clock in the morning and headed to the dining hall. Waking up was not easy and many did not look forward to the food that were served, especially at such early hours. However, we had no choice but to queue for food and eat whatever that were served which being half-asleep. I know that some took this opportunity to look at the girls when they were without their makeup.
While most of us did observe fasting strictly, there were some who could not resist having Maggie during the day. I could not recall them but I know some did that quietly in the dorms. I wonder whether they have replaced all the fasting days which they missed by now.
The dining hall could not accommodate all of us at the same time during the breaking of fast. We took turn to break fast at the dining hall or at our respective dorms. I don't think we were served different food during Ramadan but certainly we were provided with dates, something which is customary for breaking the fast. There were guys who decided to be different, by puffing their cigarettes instead!
The dining hall was not decorated like this those days
Because of the big number of students, the Tarawikh prayers were performed at the main hall. I remember the hall was full of students where the boys took the front section and the girls were at the back. Without air-conditioning, it was quite stuffy but many persevered as Tarawikh was something which they looked forward to during Ramadan. Off course there were "moreh" or supper after the prayers although they could be just biscuits and coffee. Many would also head to the cooperative shop for something different.
Whenever I had the opportunity, I went back home during the weekends. This provided me with some relief as I was able to have more "normal" food and enjoy the company of my parents and siblings. Normally, we will bring some food back to college to share with our dorm-mates, especially with those who came from afar. Sometimes we went to buy local food sold at small stalls outside the college. The food supplemented the ones provided by the college.
The pace of life was certainly slower. The preparatory classes were moved to the afternoon, instead of in the evening and there were less people playing games in late afternoon. Many spent their time in the dorms when they were free, mostly sleeping or did nothing.
As we approached Hari Raya, things will get more exciting around the college. Those who were from other states would be making arrangements to go back to celebrate with their parents and families. Some students took the initiatives to charter buses. The some took the train, not many took the flight like what we do nowadays.
The sound of Hari Raya songs could be heard from the dormitories. Then the fun really started when people started to play with fireworks including those which flew and exploded. There were inter-dormitory "war" and people from different dorms will be firing at each other. The other popular target was the girls dormitories. I could not recall whether the girls returned fire or not.
Sekolah Menengah Vocational (SMV) was our neighbour. While I could not recall any other serious interactions between the students of the two schools, we certainly had 'small wars' amongst ourselves. Students from SMV would quietly sneaked close to our college and launched firecrackers at our dorms. The responses from our side were certainly as enthusiastic. We would fire back until both sides ran out of supplies or when our teachers intervened. Nobody bothered about the risks of fire or injury those days.
There were students who celebrated Hari Raya at the college, mostly those come came from afar such as Sabah and Sarawak. The college would arrange special food so they would not miss the special occasion. Some also joined their local friends to celebrate Hari Raya in Kelantan.

Why a renovation loan for owners' associations?
Energy and insulation standards are getting increasingly stricter in Flanders. That's something you'll be faced with sooner or later if you own a unit within a larger multi-owned building. That includes having to ensure that your building conforms to new, stricter roof insulation rules due to come into effect in 2020.
Required renovations can come with a hefty price tag. Owners' associations often don't have enough funds available, plus individual members may not be able to (or want to) contribute financially.
That's where a KBC Renovation Loan for Owners' Associations comes in. It's our loan that enables owners' associations to make quick financial decisions when it comes to major renovation costs.
What is the KBC Renovation Loan for Owners' Associations?
This renovation loan is intended for energy-saving and essential renovations costing at least 50,000 euros in shared parts of a building, such as roof insulation, façade improvements or high-efficiency glazing. At least three owners have to take out the loan for no longer than 10 years.
If your loan application is for less than 50,000 euros, go to our Home section to see what options are open to you.
The OA takes out an OA credit insurance policy, covering it and all its members if one of them should default on a payment. This is a condition for acceptance of the KBC Renovation Loan for Owners' Associations.
For more details of how this loan works, see the 'More info' section at the bottom of this page.
The OA credit insurance policy protects the financial reserves of the owners and the OA.

When searching for Franklin County, Kentucky arrest records, it is common for people to get in touch with the police department. However, did you know that information on locally issued arrest warrants can also be sought from the office of the magistrate?
In fact, not just the representative of the sitting judge but also a deputy from the department of the county clerk will be able to find information on Franklin County outstanding warrants for you. Actually, quite often, it makes more sense to approach the judiciary than the local law enforcement agency as the latter can get more extensive data o the subject for you.
For example, the magistrate's court will not only offer records pertaining to Franklin County active warrants but also you can request them to provide information on other legal instruments issued against your subject such as bench warrants, summons, search orders and others.
If you are looking for a reliable database of arrest records and other crime history information which can be used for a Franklin county, use the form above. This repository is as reliable as any state maintained database of arrest warrants. You will have to incur a small, onetime charge to use this records collection for a set period of time.
From 2004 to 2008, almost 1200 criminal complaints were lodged in Franklin County, KY each year. Nearly 9% of these incidents were violent in nature while the remaining cases were filed against matters pertaining to property theft and vandalism. Through the interval mentioned earlier, there was a miniscule, single digit growth in the number of reported crimes but violent criminal activity burgeoned by almost 25%.
