A year of celebratory performances in 2008-2009 commemorating Leon Fleisher's 80th birthday coincided with the resurgence of his early recordings on Sony Masterworks – regarded as some of the greatest in classical music – among them the complete Beethoven Piano Concertos, which were inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame the same year. Fleisher enthralled capacity audiences with performances in New York, Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, San Francisco and internationally in London, Brussels, Lucerne, Singapore, Tokyo, Vancouver and Toronto, re-affirming his place among the legendary pianists and musicians of our time.
His first two-hand performances in over forty years in London, Brussels, and Lucerne and appearances in London, New York and Washington, DC as soloist with the London Philharmonic and Vladimir Jurowksi conducting were hailed as among the most moving and memorable musical events of the season. The Telegraph wrote: "Fleisher has a way of fixing the essence of a piece that reminds me of early Renaissance painters like Giotto. He captures the fleeting grace of a gesture, but in a way that makes it monumental." He has been invited to return to all three cities in 2011 and 2012.
Leon Fleisher's acclaimed Carnegie Hall workshops came to Japan for the first time in the Fall of 2009 and he returned to the famed hall in May 2010 for a chamber music workshop, joined by Yo-Yo Ma and Pamela Frank. As part of his visit to Tokyo, his recital was filmed and subsequently televised by NHK, which is also preparing a documentary on the legendary pianist to be shown in 2010 or 2011. In addition to appearances throughout the U.S. as conductor and soloist, recitalist, chamber music artist, master class mentor and invaluable resource in college and university residencies, Mr. Fleisher will have shared his multiple gifts in Brazil, Ireland, Germany, Great Britain and Tawain and will be a featured artist at the 2010 Aldeburgh Festival. On November 30, 2010, Doubleday will publish Leon Fleisher's memoir written with Washington Post chief music critic Anne Midgette.

Larsa Pippen Was Accused of Trying to "Become the New Kim Kardashian" at the World's Most Awk Dinner Party
12/01/2021 Comments Off on Larsa Pippen Was Accused of Trying to "Become the New Kim Kardashian" at the World's Most Awk Dinner Party
Larsa Pippen is joining the cast of Real Housewives of Miami, and apparently she's bringing some drama with her. The trailer for Season 4 just dropped, and it features a pretty intense dinner party during which Adriana de Moura accuses Larsa of trying to "become" her ex-best friend.
Ahem: "You left this group of women, come back with a butt as big as Kim Kardashian's, trying to become the new Kim Kardashian, which you're never going to be."
Truly yikes! As a reminder, Kim and Larsa used to be super close but had a huge falling out last year. The Kardashians—including Kim—collectively unfollowed Larsa on Instagram back in Summer 2020, and then Larsa deleted all her pics with the family and posted this to her Insta:
Meanwhile, rumors swirled that perhaps Larsa had been involved with Tristan Thompson, but an Entertainment Tonight source shut that down, saying "Larsa and the Kardashian sisters aren't friends anymore and have grown apart. The Kardashians felt Larsa wasn't bringing the best energy to their friendships and slowly drifted. No one has negative feelings toward one another, but they didn't see a reason to continue to stay close… Nothing happened between Larsa and Tristan."
Anyway, Larsa also went on a podcast to complain about Kanye West, then claimed that she dated Tristan before Khloé and had actually introduced them, and yeah. It was a whole thing that you can get a verrrry exhaustive refresher on right here:

Ushuaia. Welcome on board
The Bay of Ushuaia sees the Europa laying at anchor since yesterday in the afternoon, after a first day in port on arrival from her last voyage. With the increasing number of ships engaged in the Antarctic tourism, plus the fishing and container shipping fleet, it becomes difficult to find a spot alongside the pier for a few days in a row.
As usual, weather in Ushuaia is as changeable and variable as it can be. A sunny calm morning becomes a gusty midday. Snow falls up the mountains, rain at the lower parts, just to clear up in a few minutes, let the sun pass through for a while and then start all over again.
Europa's sees the last preparations for the trip, and in the afternoon, amidst the moody meteorology of the area, embarkation time arrives. Before making our way to the commercial port of Ushuaia we all had a bit of time to enjoy the so called to be "Southernmost city of the world" and its surroundings. From there, the ship's rubber boats picked everybody up. A wet bumpy though short ride across the windy bay brought us to the ship and soon we were climbing up the ladders to Europa's decks.
Embarkation procedures followed. Afterwards there was time enough to get acquainted with each other, the cabins and the ship that will be our home for the next weeks.
Traditional sound of the ship's three bells called then for a gathering with everybody. Captain and her crew welcomed us on board, the crew introduced themselves and also a few words were exchanged to give a general idea of the trip, some basic safety topics, all followed by our first dinner on board.
Day was not over yet. Before finishing our first exciting journey on board, the guides and crew took the late evening to start familiarising everybody with the ship and the duties necessary to run her and the watch system, the safety equipment and a practical walk around on decks and below. A way to get into the systems of the life-on-board before actually heaving anchor and sail tomorrow.
At what time? … we are still not sure. Wind forecast tells about a deep Low Pressure System rapidly passing along the Drake Passage, affecting the Southernmost Patagonia and Cape Horn with ferocious winds and big seas. Would be better to sit, wait and begin with the necessary drills and instructions to sail the ship while still in calmer areas at anchor. A few hours surely well spent before venturing South, where a great adventure lays in front of us. Sail the ship, join the watches, learn the ropes, steer her over the Drake Passage. Journeys at sea, and days of visits ashore in Antarctica. The sort of arrangement which on board a ship built 112 years ago, takes an enthusiastic crew and plenty of effort to put together.

Beams-doc-779-v1: Brief Analysis of recent store on the Aug 10 record store.
Brief Analysis of recent store on the Aug 10 record store.
As suggested by Vladimir S., sometimes, we have to come up with a story why we increased the luminosity. It is shown that, at a first glance, better pbar efficiency and a high stack size is the reason. The detailed reason(s) why the TeV pbar efficiency (at 150, through the ramp and through the squeeze) were good in the recent stores, given the relatively high proton current is a bit harder to explain..


Reason #8: No "Boat Show"
The "personal" in "personal learning network" can be interpreted to mean "I know this individual in real life." A Barcamp is a great way to get to know someone you've been learning with online! Since the atmosphere is relaxed and conversational, there are plenty of opportunities to get to know other folks. You just don't get the "rushed" feeling you do at a large conference.
Have you ever been to a conference presentation, seated amidst a sea of closely-arranged chairs, only to discover the topic (or presenter, or something else) is not to your liking, but you are TRAPPED for the balance of the meeting time? Yeah, been there, done that. As someone who presents a lot, I admit, it's hard when someone gets up in the middle of your talk and walks out. It's just something that people don't do usually. Here's the thing: BARCAMPS ARE DIFFERENT! It's EXPECTED and ENCOURAGED that you move in and out of sessions WHILE THEY ARE HAPPENING. Think about it. How can you possibly decide which session to attend, in a matter of minutes, and based on a cryptic (and probably esoteric) title? Barcampers know this. So people who need to leave do so, and no one thinks anything less of the speaker, or the attendee. Trust me! It's true!

This thread should help you out.
Also try DirectGov website, that should tell you what and how much your entitled to.
if your working on a low income you might be entitled to working taxs credits, if not you cant claim anything untill after the babys born.
It depends if you are working or not, if you are living at home or living alone..
If you arent working you can get Jobseekers Allowance until you are 29 weeks.
Then at 29 weeks you get income support instead of job seekers allowance.
Then when the baby is here you need to get the birth certificate asap, then take it straight to the jobcentre or wherever you go, and then you can claim Child benifit and Child tax credit.

MIT Scientists Discovers What Could be the Key to Limitless Energy
A team of MIT scientists has just made an amazing discovery which brings them a step closer to harnessing limitless energy by pushing the plasma pressure in the fusion process higher than what is on the current record.
A team of MIT scientists and engineers from the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center achieved the breakthrough through the use of their Alcator-C Mod Tokamak reactor which utilizes magnetic fields to trap the reaction within a fixed volume.
Through the Tokamak, they were able to produce a temperature of more than 35 million degrees Celsius or 63 million degrees Fahrenheit. To put it in layman's terms, that temperature is twice as hot as that in the sun's core. Despite the intense heat inside the reactor, the team was able to maintain the pressure at 2.05 atmosphere of pressure, which is similar to the pressure 10 meters deep into the ocean.
Dale Meade, who was the former deputy director of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, congratulated the MIT team for their remarkable discovery.
"The record plasma pressure validates the high-magnetic-field approach as an attractive path to practical fusion energy," he said.
For those who may have no idea why the discovery is significant, it is best to understand how fusion works.
The first step in fusion involves superheating hydrogen gas in order to create and energize plasma. In order to contain overheated plasma, there should be external pressure . The same pressure also causes the nuclei to continuously collide with each other. This is the same process occurring in the sun. However, where the sun rely on gravity to keep the force within bounds, scientists have to use very powerful magnetic fields to confine the plasma.
This fusion reaction in the sun continuously happens, producing enough energy to keep this great ball of fire burning. In the same way, the scientists want to re-create the same fusion reaction in the sun through the use of the tokamak. When this happens, then limitless energy is available for all.

Survey sheds light on how faculty are using social media.
SOME PROFESSORS VIEW social media platforms as excellent tools for teaching; others, as distractions to be avoided in the classroom. What makes one side embrace social media for teaching and the other shy away?
Seventy economics professors from different institutions recently took part in a survey on just that question.
Among the professors surveyed, 55 reported that they use Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube frequently, and 29 share podcasts with their students. Frequent users turned to social media primarily to share videos or articles with students, and most valued social media as an additional tool for communicating with students.
"Most of the use of social media is in the form of passive instruction," write the researchers who conducted the survey. They include Abdullah Al-Bahrani, assistant professor at Northern Kentucky University's Haile/ US Bank College of Business in Highland Heights; Darshak Patel, a lecturer at the University of Kentucky's Gatton College of Business and Economics in Lexington; and Brandon Sheridan, assistant professor at Elon University's Martha and Spencer Love School of Business in North Carolina. They point out that many professors have "no specific assignments or grading associated with the content that is shared" via social media.
Survey respondents who did not use social media for teaching brought up several concerns- particularly the desire to protect the personal privacy of both their students and themselves. Interestingly, few among the 70 respondents believed that social media had no impact on learning-but most were simply uncertain of what that impact might be.
As today's digital natives become tomorrow's professors, it's likely that social media will become used more often for teaching, the authors note. Given that, professors "would benefit from more empirical evidence on the effectiveness of social media in enhancing student learning before adopting their own approaches."
"Have economic educators embraced social media as a teaching tool?" was published online December 16, 2016, by the Journal of Economic Education.

Prevention is an important part of avoiding problems like tooth decay and gum disease. With a dedicated prevention plan in place, you can keep their natural teeth for your entire life.
Cleaning in-between every day. Nothing cleans between your teeth except flossing or water flossing. These areas are especially prone to tooth decay and gum disease, so don't skip them.
Brush twice a day for at least 2 minutes. Angle your brush toward the gumlines and make small brush strokes over one or two teeth at a time. Do this for at least two full minutes, twice a day. Pay attention to the gumlines! Bleeding gums indicate problems like gingivitis or gum disease.
Drink lots of water. Water is a natural cleanser. Tap water also contains fluoride to strengthen teeth and limit tooth decay. Choose water between meals to keep your teeth strong.
Choose healthy snacks. Fresh fruits and vegetables strengthen your teeth and limit plaque buildup. Cheese provides calcium and also neutralizes the pH inside of your mouth!
Visit your dentist at least twice a year for preventive care. A professional cleaning helps remove bacteria that cause gum disease and bone loss. During your visit, you'll also receive an exam that checks for tooth decay, oral cancer, and complications like TMJ disorder. Earlier diagnoses help keep treatment needs smaller and more affordable.
Dental emergencies happen when you least expect them. Knowing what to do next is important, and can affect whether or not your damaged tooth can be saved. As soon as your emergency happens, you should call Access Dental Parkesburg. Our goal is to alleviate your pain as quickly as possible and help you save your smile.
If your tooth has broken off or fallen out and you are able to locate it, we ask that you place it in a glass of milk or saline as quickly as possible. Do not attempt to scrub it clean, as this can damage important fibers that may help in reattachment.
Our office makes every effort to accommodate emergency patients as quickly as possible. If your emergency occurs after business hours, you may leave a message and one of our skilled team members will contact you as quickly as possible.
Don't go to the hospital next door when you have a dental emergency – come right by Access Dental Parkesburg for quick care that will save your smile.
If not treated early on, gum disease can cause teeth to become so mobile that they fall out. Unmanaged gum disease is also directly linked with systemic health conditions like stroke, heart attack, obesity, diabetes and premature labor.
Proper brushing and flossing along with routine preventive cleanings can keep teeth stronger and your gums free of disease. If deep pocketing begins to occur under the gums, a periodontal cleaning is necessary to help the area heal and recover from the infection.
Access Dental Parkesburg offers a periodontal screening during our preventive care appointments. This pinpoints areas of early disease while they are easier to treat and reverse. See us twice each year to help keep your smile healthy, and your teeth for a lifetime.
When you're looking for a new dentist, you want someone that can care for your entire family – just one office where all of your needs can be met. That's exactly what Access Dental Parkesburg has to offer!
The American Academy of Pediatrics and American Dental Association recommend that children have their first dental check-up when their first tooth erupts, or no later than their 1st birthday. We typically recommend that children have their first visit by age 6 months. Early visits help identify problems before they become complex, keeping treatments minimal and encouraging preventive care.
A healthy mouth should start at a young age. Through oral hygiene instruction, good diet choices, and comfort in the dental environment, Access Dental Parkesburg helps children establish a love for their smile very early on. Your child deserves gentle dental care that keeps them wanting to come back. At Access Dental Parkesburg, we have everything you need to care for your child's oral health right here in our office, so there's no need to take your family back and forth between multiple providers.
Some dentists don't have the patience or skill needed to provide comprehensive dentistry to children of young ages. At Access Dental Parkesburg, we love kids! All of your family, including your children, can have their smile needs provided right here in our convenient family dental office.
Straighter smiles are easier to keep healthy and provide a great boost to your self-confidence.

There's no one perfect treatment for everyone. In fact, most people elect to choose from a combination of different treatments to create the smile that they're really looking for. We'll help you choose the one that's right for you!

Are you ready to start your smile makeover? Schedule a visit at Access Dental Parkesburg for your cosmetic consultation with one of our dentists!
By removing any damaged tooth structure as well as the infected nerve, the tooth can be prevented from undergoing a self-destructive process that would render it untreatable. Once the tooth is numbed and the damaged nerve tissues are cleaned away, a filling material is placed within the nerve chamber, which seals off any future bacteria from entering the area. After treatment is completed, a crown is placed over the tooth to restore normal function as well as aesthetics.
Most dentists refer their patients out to a specialist when they need a root canal. At Access Dental Parkesburg, we offer comprehensive endodontic treatment right here in our office! You can have all of your dental needs taken care of in one place…including root canals.
Don't put your root canal treatment off - waiting too long to restore an infected tooth could allow it to become so damaged that it isn't possible to treat at all. Call Access Dental Parkesburg to find out about our comfortable endodontic and sedation options.
There's never been a better tooth replacement treatment than the modern dental implant. Implants are made of artificial titanium roots that are placed into the mouth in the areas of the missing teeth. These roots encourage new bone formation in the jaw, which enhances their stability and adds strength. Within a few months after the placement, implants can support even more weight than a natural tooth! We partner with oral implant surgeons and provide comprehensive implant restorations based on your needs.
Whether you have one missing tooth or are missing all of your teeth, dental implants can help!
The ideal dental implant patient will have good oral hygiene and healthy bone levels. Caring for your implant is just like caring for your natural teeth - regular brushing and flossing is important!
Want to find out more? We invite you to call Access Dental Parkesburg today to find out more about our dental implant restoration options and how you can get your full smile back!
Have you ever wondered if dental X-rays are really necessary? You're not the only one - many patients ask us why and how often X-rays must be taken. Thankfully, low-radiation digital X-rays have many benefits that they bring to your preventive care appointments.
Capturing digital radiographs of the teeth and bone allow our dentists to screen for cavities between the teeth, bone loss, impacted teeth, and other dental abnormalities. The earlier the diagnosis, the less invasive and more affordable the treatment will be for the condition.
Digital X-rays are visible on our in-room monitors, allowing us to discuss areas of concern in a way that is easier for patients to see and understand. We can even print or email your radiographs for you if necessary.
Since images are captured instantly, there's no need to wait for manual or chemical processing that add unnecessary time to your appointment. Digital radiographs shorten your visit by several minutes.
With Sirona technology, we're able to capture highest resolution digital images of your oral anatomy. This provides more comprehensive care when it comes to battling oral diseases and completing dental implant therapy.
Our enhanced, high-definition digital Sirona X-ray equipment uses state of the art technology that improves your care and enhances your knowledge about your smile. Your images can easily be emailed, printed, or enlarged to keep you informed about your biggest smile needs.
You don't necessarily have to use tobacco or alcohol to develop oral cancer, although they can dramatically increase your risk of the disease. Other conditions like sun exposure or viruses like HPV are also known to cause cancerous growths in the mouth and throat. That's why Access Dental Parkesburg makes it a policy to perform oral cancer screenings on all patients, regardless of their oral health status.
Most people don't discover their oral cancer on their own unless it has become very pronounced and more difficult to treat. Early diagnosis is key for effective and minimally invasive treatment.
Should a precancerous or irregular tissue be found, we may recommend a follow up visit in 2 weeks. A small biopsy may also be needed.
Oral cancer screenings should be conducted at every preventive care appointment. Are you up to date on your cleaning and exam?
Access Dental Parkesburg provides comfortable oral devices that can eliminate your sleep apnea symptoms and help you get a better night's rest. Most of our patients see results in the very first night!
Each appliance uses a set of custom-fitted guards that guide the jaws into a relationship that prevents soft tissues in the back of the throat from sealing off the airway. This is the same technique used during rescue breathing, and is a proven way to enhance airflow.
If you're battling sleep apnea, we invite you to schedule a visit with us to discuss how our sleep apnea guards can help. We're sure it will be one of the best investments you've ever made!
Is snoring keeping you or your family members awake each night? If it is, it's time to visit Access Dental Parkesburg to find out how our non-invasive snoring treatment can help.
The soft tissues in the back of the mouth often cause snoring by collapsing against each other or vibrating when there is not enough space. Our removable snoring prosthesis prevents this from happening! The custom-fitted appliance fits over your teeth to guide the jaws into a relationship that prevents snoring.
Chronic snoring can lead to restless sleep, an increase in blood pressure, depression, and feeling tired all day long. Let Access Dental Parkesburg help! There's no need to keep hoping for a snore-free night when you can prevent it before your head even hits the pillow. Call us today to set up your visit!
Teeth naturally become discolored over time, making your smile look darker and older than it really is.
Whether your tooth stain is something you were born with or caused by foods you eat, Access Dental Parkesburg can help. Our professional teeth whitening treatments allow us to remove deep-set stains and brighten your smile by several shades.
Your at-home whitening treatment starts with a set of custom molded whitening trays and professional strength gel that you wear for an hour a day, for 10-14 days. Within just a few days you will begin to see results, with full results at the end of your treatment.
Our at-home professional whitening treatment is an affordable way to transform your smile and increase self-confidence. All that you need to do is schedule a short visit where we will take an impression of your teeth. What are you waiting for?


Arnold, MO - February 2, 2011 - To most people a home consists of a furnace and an air conditioner, both expensive items to install or replace. One is located inside the home; the other on the outside. One unit heats; one cools. Seems simple enough, yet there is so much more connecting these two devices. In fact, without both units functioning together, along with other connecting pieces, the devices do little good to serve their purpose.
The outside unit is commonly known in the HVAC industry as the condenser. Perhaps it is common to conceive of the condenser as a machine of its own, but in reality the condenser is a housing for several components, which connect to perform an operation. The condenser needs a compressor, coils and a fan as the minimum of components to complete the job of condensing. In brief, the condenser's function is to convert. It receives a substance from the inside unit and once the conversion is completed, the converted substance is passed back to the inside unit.
A general understanding of how an air conditioner works will reveal the role the condenser plays in cooling a home. The primary operation consists of transforming a liquid to a gas and back to a liquid again. The indoor unit begins with a liquid refrigerant which transforms into a gas. After the inside unit has performed its function, it passes a low-pressure refrigerant gas to the condensing unit outside. The job of the condenser is to move the substance through a process to convert the gas into a liquid, which will be sent back to the indoor unit so the process can be repeated.
Once the condenser receives the gas, it travels into the compressor, which forces the low-pressure gas into a smaller space. This force creates a hot high-pressure gas. This hot gas is sent to a heat exchanger or through the condenser coils, also housed by the condenser. A fan inside the condenser housing, which is often visible near the top of the outside unit, pulls outside air over the heat exchanger (or condenser coils depending on the style of the unit). The fan cools the contents of the heat exchanger, i.e., the gas releases the heat it contains when cooled by the fan. This is when the conversion from gas to liquid takes place. The liquid is transported back to the inside unit where the process can be repeated.
With all the gas and liquid passing back and forth from the inside and outside, one can imagine the importance of keeping the lines clear of dirt and debris. While difficult to take action Plastic Caps and Plugs Protect Condensers From Harsh Elementsafter the units are installed in a home, the manufacturers within the HVAC industry know the value of keeping each new component free and clear of dirt and moisture before installation. From start to finish in the production of a condenser, manufacturers can use a very small part in a very big way to protect the unit. Plastic caps and plugs are used to cover ports keeping items free of contaminants. Plastic caps and plugs are instrumental to protecting condensers from harsh elements.
Like the manufacturers, StockCap knows the importance of safeguarding HVAC components from dirt, dust and moisture. StockCap produces plastic end caps, vinyl caps, tube end caps, tapered plugs and rubber seal plugs, which work extremely well with copper tubing often found in HVAC units. To assist members of the HVAC industry, the StockCap website displays the best options specific to each major component. The StockCap online store provides smaller quantities to help during the prototype and testing phases of component design.
For more information on plastic caps or plugs call today, 800-827-2277 or visit the StockCap website.

The 5 O'Clock Shadow – June 7th
The original artist emerged from the London folk scene in early 1965 and was often called the "Scottish Bob Dylan." He would later become friends with George Harrison and his music would take on a more spiritual and mystic tone.
This band would become one of the top heavy metal bands of the 1970's. Early on, though, they recorded lots of cover songs because no one in the band knew how to write a proper song. This one sounds like it could be about Layla's similarly named musical cousin.

5 Best DVD "Easter Eggs"
Hidden gems you're not supposed to see
comp0202dvd_A.jpg
In the film Final Fantasy, Dr. Aki Ross saves the Earth. On the DVD, she dances like Michael Jackson.
There's more to DVD movies these days than just the film and cast bios. Moviemakers are increasingly including Easter eggs-hidden bits of amusing or wacky material that you can find only by snooping around. They're activated with a few clicks of the remote control. We asked Mr. DVD, Netflix.com's James Rocchi, for his list of the five coolest.
Star Wars: Episode One
What You'll See: A hilarious series of flubs from the movie's making.
How to Access: Go to the Options menu and type "1138" (from the title of George Lucas' debut, THX 1138) with your remote.
Mr. DVD Sez: "Who knew light sabers were so slippery? Funny stuff here-at the very least, funnier than Jar Jar Binks."
What You'll See: The computer-generated characters doing their own rendition of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video.
How to Access: Select the Highlights menu on the bonus disc; press the up-arrow on your remote, followed by the right-arrow button-this takes you to a second page. Press the up-arrow button, then press the right-arrow button twice and highlight a small frame in the righthand corner.
Mr. DVD Sez: "More wit, charm, and humor in 3 minutes than the film displays in 106."
Terminator 2: Judgment Day Special Edition
What You'll See: A 156-minute extended version
of the movie with an alternate ending.
How to Access: Go to the Special Edition menu screen, highlight the words Play Special Edition and enter the number "82997" (which is the date of the movie's original release).
Mr. DVD Sez: "OK, the alternate ending is hokey, but who can resist an extra-heaping helping of T2?"
What You'll See: A 12-minute montage of concept artwork and special effects test footage.
How to Access: Go to the Special Features menu, then to Cast and Crew biographies. The page about the writing-directing Wachowski brothers contains a small red pill-highlight it and press "enter."
Mr. DVD Sez: "A great glimpse behind the curtain of everyone's favorite brain-bending film."
What You'll See: Test footage of a cut scene in which Russell Crowe's Maximus faces down a computer-generated rhino.
How to Access: On the bonus disc, go to the second page of special features and click Original Storyboards; on the second page of that section, select Rhino Fight. Highlight the rhino in the second storyboard and press "enter."
Mr. DVD Sez: "With a budget as bloated as the rhino, this scene ended up on the cutting room floor."

Terrorist attack survivor fights extremism with peace
Report by Davina Patel
'Breivik is just a man. I wanted to face him. I wanted to understand him as a human being not just a violent extremist,' Bjørn Ihler, a survivor of the Anders Breivik terrorist attack of 2011, told a captivated audience at the Initiatives of Change centre in London on 1 November.
Sophie Coxon
He recalled the fateful events of what happened on the Norwegian island of Utøya when Breivik, a far right extremist, killed 69 young people who were attending a Labour Party youth conference. When Breivik pointed his gun at Ihler he did not think he would live beyond his age then of 20. Luckily the bullet missed Ihler and he survived. He saved the lives of two young boys by hiding them in freezing water under a lakeside bush.
Ihler is now working towards preventing extremism, focussing his efforts on understanding why people become extremists. He is one of 10 young leaders chosen to be part of the Kofi Annan Foundation's Extremely Together Initiative.
He spoke about the need to treat extremists as humans. 'Some people pose a direct danger to society like Breivik. We need to stop them being extremists, not people,' Ihler said.
'We are all the result of the stories we believe to be true about ourselves,' he continued. 'Extremism is not linked to any particular religion and ideology and we often forget that extremes grow out of every community.' The media seemed to be focused on Islamic extremism and this was damaging. The media is obsessing Islamic extremism but not far right extremism, he said.
Using his technology background, Ihler uses social media and technology to combat extremism. 'I find people with radical views online and I talk to them.' Focusing on young people, Ihler says violent extremism is a generational issue: young people are targets of attacks but are also being targeted for recruitment to extremist groups.
'We live in a time of extreme polarization, of black and white politics, where leaders can in a single tweet or just a few words instantly fuel hate, division and insularity,' said Rachel Bird, Director of the Forgiveness Project, who gave a vote of thanks. 'The complex stories that Bjørn and our other storytellers tell—these narratives of hope, recovery and forgiveness—have a key part to play in building a more peaceful world.'
In her vote of thanks, Kaja Glomm, First Secretary (Political) of the Norwegian Embassy in London, stressed the need for dialogue to prevent radicalization and violent extremism. 'We as a society must talk to each other, and we must talk to those at risk. Inclusiveness, exchange of ideas, and trust are the antithesis of terror.'

Join all of us at LFC in congratulating Josh on a job WELL DONE!
We are excited to update you on the Lake Lanier floatplane access process. After several informative and strategic meetings with the Army Corp of Engineers both locally and regionally, we are ready to begin the process of presenting the proposal for floatplane access in a public forum format.
Our goal of bringing business to the area while growing the General Aviation base in Georgia requires educating the community. Safe practices on our waterways are the responsibility of the certificated pilots of floatplanes, and we want the community to know that our desire is to work with boaters and lake homeowners to establish reasonable guidelines for lake access.
Lanier Flight Center Owner and President and Seaplane Pilots Association Field Director for Georgia, Troy Wheeler, wants you to know that we would not have come this far without the invaluable support of individual pilots within our community. Several friends of LFC participated in the June meeting when we heard from SPA President, Steve McCaughey. In order to enter the public forum, we are forming a focus group and will host a gathering in February (date and time TBA). Please email Heidi.Earle@lanierflightcenter.com if you are interested in attending. Your ideas, connections, and collaborative efforts are much appreciated and we are looking forward to taking the next step with you.
Thank you for your help in affording Georgia the freedom enjoyed by our neighboring states and by so many aviators nationwide.
It was the first Friday of the New Year, and Andrew Schettino kicked-off the FIRST SOLO FLIGHT of his aviation journey! His instructor, Derek Metro, applauded from the ground as Andrew made smooth landings at KFTY in Cessna Skyhawk N109TJ! Way to go, Andrew! We're celebrating with you!

NCCW trained pup offers life-saving aid
The Nebraska Correctional Center for Women (NCCW) recently named Marvel its hero of the week. Marvel was trained by the women at NCCW and later by men at another facility. The dog's training paid off in a big way as he provided life-saving assistance to his new owner, Josef. Josef suffered a grand mal seizure while outside at school. He fell face down in the snow where there was limited visibility and couldn't be seen by others. Marvel nudged Josef's face to the side, opening his airway allowing him to breathe and then paced in circles while barking, drawing the other students' attention. Two students came to Josef's aid and...Read more
