H Street, boardwalk priorities in 6-year road plan
Wider lanes on H Street, a smoother railroad crossing on Marine Drive and the completion of the planned pedestrian bridge downtown are just a few of the improvements residents can expect with the city's six-year transportation improvement plan approved by Blaine City Council this week.
In their regular meeting Monday, Blaine City Council voted 5-0 to approve the plan that calls for a total of 16 improvements to Blaine roads between 2008 and 2013.
In an earlier presentation to the council, Blaine public works director Steve Banham said those improvements include the widening and reconstruction of H Street between Ludwick Avenue and Vista Terrace, road reconstruction and railway crossing alignment of the Marine Drive gateway, and the construction of the pedestrian bridge connecting the H Street boardwalk plaza to the boat launch at the end of Milhollin Drive.
Banham said additional projects include completing the environmental and preliminary engineering on the exit 274 interchange improvements, overlay work and repair on Bell Road, as well as Boblett Street and Bayview Avenue reconstruction.
Banham said with improvements such as Bayview Avenue, he plans to look into partnering with developers to complete road improvements that will be required along with their planned projects.
"We'd like to be able to partner with some of the development that's going on there such as with the Brickyard Cottage development planned for Peace Portal Way," he said. "We'll see if we can make that work."
Blaine resident Dianne Palmason, said she liked the plan but wanted to know what the city was doing to include provisions for non-motorized transportation.
"I regularly see young people walking back and forth to school on H Street, the shoulder is missing, there's a hill and visibility is poor."
The complete list of road projects is available on the city's web site at www.ci.blaine.wa.us.

3. Getting started with the archive service
Now that we know that the archive service is for the long term storage of data valuable to the University it is unsurprising that the first step in using the service is to request an archive project. Once your application is successful you will need to install and configure the TSM archive client and give some thought to these initial considerations. The TSM archive client uses the same software as the TSM backup client but there are subtle differences in its configuration and use so even if you have the TSM client software already installed for backup you will need to configure it for archive. As with the backup client you have a choice of whether to use the TSM archive client via the GUI interface for your platform or the command line interface.

Design brief
Bon Iver
I am looking to have someone design a tattoo for me based on a northern exposure episode in the style of Mucha.
Art & Design
I named my band after an episode of Northern Exposure. In the episode a women transforms a gold rush village into a cultural place with one single dance in a tavern. They name the town after her, Cicely, Alaska.
The art direction in the episode is unmistakably Mucha and I want to get a very large tattoo of this on my left arm.
Ill include some images of the actual episode, of Cicely herself, and of some of the Mucha pieces I want the shape and style to be like. A tall rectangular, stained glass, bold lines shadow box!
Please, help!
My favorite, hopefully what your illustrations will be based on, is the image I uploaded of Cicely with arms outstretched in mid-dance. You can't see her with the flowing scarf in her hands, but that would be cool if we could involve that.THANK YOU!
This is a really important thing to me. I don't know how to express that exactly... Its a TV show but it weirdly explained my life to me. Cicely is the metaphor for that.

Toilet Service
Manufacture de Sèvres
Soft-paste porcelain, painted and gilded
Vincennes and Sèvres toilet wares were used for the cosmetics and hair preparations during the ritual of the toilette. In the 18th century this was undertaken before courtiers, friends and tradesmen. This service (probably incomplete) comprises two powder boxes, two patch boxes, a small brush (vergette) for brushing away wig powder and a clothes brush. The service may have been intended for Madame de Pompadour, but was left incomplete on her death in 1764, subsequently being sold to Queen Lovisa Ulrika of Sweden (1720 - 82).

English is the international language of business and up to the time this was posted,the U.S. dollar has been the benchmark currency from which global values are derived. The United States has become this largely because of the individual freedom that is recognized as birthright in the Declaration of Independence, and Constitution which governs, regulates, and limits the power of the State to control individual actions, save those deemed criminal. Nothing more than the hope that freedom, both political and economic, might exist has caused wave after wave of international immigration.
In the U.S., not only is freedom a native birthright, but, until recently, also conveyed to all who came to stay, or to those merely here to visit. Our citizenship has always been available on a truly open basis. The U.S. has always been open to people, business, religion, culture, and politics. As if by magic are both personal privacy and economic freedom accommodated. Coupled to a system of scheduled political referendum, the U.S. has done nothing but grow since its inception. The United States rose to glory on the basis of its permissiveness.
The keys to this were the elimination of royalty and hereditary titles, the permanent separation of political alliances between church and state, and a mechanical system of political referendum. The great promises of the United States are freedom and liberty. As long as freedom and liberty are expanding, the United States will expand. If liberty and freedom become restricted, the power, prestige, and influence of the United States will contract. This is the all and all of the entire formula.
This model of government was largely crafted by members of an international continuum of intellectually gifted, and open minded thinkers known as the Freemasons. Virtually all of the founding Fathers were Masons. It is no wonder then, that masonic symbols adorn our money, our documents, and our architecture. As with the all seeing eye in the capstone of the Pyramid which appears on a dollar bill, many of the symbols are of ancient Egyptian origin. It may be that no one alive today possesses the knowledge of their exact meaning. The only thing for certain is that the Masons thought it important, and were acting with deliberate intent. Being a secret society, and one which had suffered unspeakable persecution by alliances of Church and States wherever they organized, the Masons had good reasons for disguising their arcana. Even today, their rites of initiation, and lore are largely oral. But with the design of the Federal City it was their intent to incorporate their symbols in a monolithic way.
As can be seen on the following map section, the District of Columbia conformed to a very specific plan. While its streets were to laid out on a grid which was perfectly north/south, east/west; the corner- points of its borders were found at the cardinal points of the compass. The borderlines were set at 45 degree angles to the grid. More so, while the street grid was aligned to true North, the corner-points were aligned to magnetic North. The map section referenced in this essay was first issued by the U.S. Geological Survey, and was based on aerial photographs made by the Air Corps, U.S. Army in 1914. If one looks at it with an initiated mind,patterns emerge which have never been specifically identified before. This is made possible, in part, by the fact that certain landmarks have been changed since the map was made. Looking first at the pink bordered figure , it can be plainly seen that a gigantic pentagram star had been laid out which went from what is now Howard University at its northern point, from Georgetown to a point north of Benning Road, on its E/W axis, and the descending lines met diagonals at points in Anacostia, and Alexandria. The largest portions of this star are formed by actual streets, the cross-bar being K' Street, and the others being diagonals named after States.
It must be noted that the descending diagonals bisect both the U.S. Capitol Building, and The White House with Pennsylvania Avenue set as a sight line for the Constellation Orion. At the center of the K' Street cross-bar (at its intersection with New York and Massachusetts Avenues, [yellow,]) is sited the first of the Carnegie Libraries, at Mount Vernon Square. This location is certainly no accident, and it is probable that within its structure, or perhaps cornerstone will be found explanatory documents. Currently it hosts the University of the Museum of the District of Columbia, and is across the square from the new convention center. Here X ' marks the spot as New York and Massachussetts Avenues intersect in the square.
The area encompassing The White House from Pennsylvania Avenue, south across the Ellipse, to a site line [green,]formed by the conjunction of the Lincoln Memorial, the Washington Monument (Egyptian obelisk,) and the Dome of the Capitol Building is absolutely spectacular in its subtlety. The circle formed by the Ellipse is actually part of an Ankh ([Purple] Egyptian symbol of eternal life) the arms of which are a segment of Independence Avenue, and the tail of which is a road which formerly extended to the axis line described above. In other words, the White House grounds appear from the air to be sitting atop an Ankh.
The White House grounds themselves are bordered by a horseshoe-shaped perimeter which is round at the bottom (southern border,) and open at the top (Pennsylvania Avenue.) Within this border sits the White House. Its southern driveway forms within the larger borders a circle of closure which circumscribes a sun disk, which taken together with the semi-circular Pennsylvania Avenue driveway forms a very distinct, and accurately scaled Crown Of Hathor (Egyptian Mother-Goddess [orange]). Within the Executive reservation are a Crown atop an Ankh, with an obelisk thrown in for good measure. The driveway from Pennsylvania Ave. under the portico of the White House forms the horns of an apis bull, which when appearing atop the Crown of Hathor denotes the symbol of the goddess Isis. This may commemorate the Masonic Lodge of Isis in Paris, where much of the twin revolutions in America and France were planned.
The zero milestone marker may represent the third eye, in this case at the conjunction of higher and lower consciousness (the spiritual, and the temporal; the pineal and the pituitary). Of note is the fact that the height of Jefferson's head in his memorial across the Tidal Basin is dead level with the pinnacle of the zero milestone. Measure down from this line at mean high tide and sea level may be established at the Tidal basin from the South lawn of the White House itself.
Every President to occupy the White House has been living and serving within a monolithic Egyptian glyph.
The combined symbols of the ankh, the obelisk, and the Crown of Isis constitute a very powerful protected reservation. They are in and of themselves transcendental in nature. These types of symbols have the power to convey understanding without education or training. One wonders how many, if any, of our Presidents have known or comprehended this.
The Capitol Building is another story however. The Capitol dome is the zero point for the four quadrants of the city: Northwest, Northeast, Southwest, Southeast. Streets running East-West bear alpha-numeric designation, while streets running North-South are themselves numbered. Diagonals are named after states. In theory, it is possible for anyone to identify their location on the grid at every street corner. 1st Street N.W. and 1st Street N.E. are two blocks apart, separated by North capitol Street, and so forth. Logic was imparted to the grid beginning at the Capitol, but the zero milestone from which the survey actually began is sited at the conjunction of the Crown of Isis/Hathor, and the Ankh of eternal life.
The Capitol building is sited on grounds that appear to be a flower. It is an imprint of a rose. As such, a basic Masonic symbol has been installed sub-rosa, which is a method they used in times of persecution to disguise their work, but to identify it to the initiated. It forms the entire Capitol Building reservation. This sub-rosa emblem is purely Masonic. At the base (western edge) of the symbol are twin circular reflective pools (blue- now gone) equidistant and aligned with diagonals of Pennsylvania and Maryland Avenues. The center axis of the Capitol dome aligns itself with the center axis of the Washington Monument, the dome of the Lincoln Memorial, and the White House. All axes of which are maintained with unobscured sight lines. The Capitol dome, the Washington Monument, and the Lincoln Memorial are all sited in a perfect East/West alignment and in conformity with the Golden section (PHI). The symbol of the Rose is seen as the baseplate for the Capitol Building itself.
In the Northwest section of the city, circles were incorporated at the intersections of diagonal streets (blue) There are six of these, seven if the circumscription of the Lincoln Memorial is included. In the Southeast quadrant however, squares and rectangles were incorporated at the intersections of diagonal streets. The NW circles may represent a configuration of heavenly bodies as once aligned, or the same which may be observed in a future alignment. The circles of Northwest, and the squares of Southeast may also represent the northern and southern hemispheres. In an area just to the left of Connecticut Avenue and South of Rock Creek Park, is found another ankh (red.) It appears atop the hieroglyph for a djed pillar. The djed pillar represented the stability and order of ancient Egypt. This was also known as 'Maat.' Crowned by an ankh, it comes to mean the stability of eternal life. Just why it appears where it does is a mystery.
star configuration was obviously overtaken by other events which included
the State of Virginia taking back its land. This ultimately prevented
its completion. Enough of it exists that its phantom members can be identified
from existing remnants however. Accurate conclusions may never be drawn,
but as with this description, enough facts blended with a little imagination
makes for a very entertaining theory.
Like the pyramids,
it was implemented and installed over multiple generations by architects,
artisans, and laborers who were serving a Divine plan without being aware
of the plan itself.
The men who gave us freedom must be recognized 200 years later as having had a superior ability to turn thoughts, ideas, dreams, and visions into reality. Their powers of creation rank foremost among those of modern Times. It is evident that they sought to preserve the symbols of their dreams and visions in a way so blatantly permanent, that no matter how much time it took, eventually the meaning would become clear to succeeding generations. The Masons as a matter of routine, stored explanatory documents within their architectural structures. Such may be found in the institutions incorporated within the grand design. Meanwhile, the perfection of their accomplishments continues to educate, entertain, and fascinate scholars of every disposition, as the foundations of Egyptian legends are preserved.
Over 200 years later, the electronic internet arrives. This picture was compiled at the University of Illinois supercomputing center in 1994. It appeared in Newsweek magazine. It is a graphic representation of trillion line bytes of internet traffic. As can be seen, the internet is a star radiating from Washington, D.C. The U.S. government accounts for half of all daily internet traffic on the world wide web. One star seems to predict the other. This is, of course, very strange. It may indicate the guiding hand of the Grand Architect, the one who put the constellation of the Eagle over the U.S. landmass. The explanations are probably endless. But it certainly seems to be a perfectly prescient prediction.
It seems that the city of Washington, D.C. was both designed as, and has become, the Stargate City.

MARSHFIELD, Wis. (WSAU) -- A Marshfield man has been charged with possessing child pornography and for failing to update his sex offender registration. The U.S Attorney's Office claims 53-year-old James E. Pearson had a computer and a cellphone that contained photos of minors engaging in explicit conduct. He is also charged with failing to contact authorities when he moved to Marshfield from South Carolina in 2011.
If convicted, Pearson would serve between 10 and 20 years in federal prison on each possession of child pornography charge, as a repeat offender. He could also get up to 10 additional years for failing to update his sex offender registration.
The prosecution of this case has been assigned to Assistant U.S. Attorney Julie Pfluger.

What's my favorite look that I get from a woman? Well, sexy and excited do top the list on that one, but the third place winner isn't what you'd expect: My third favorite look is when she looks away.
I'm not talking about when she looks away in discomfort as if to say, "listen, I'm not into you or any man right now". I'm talking about when she gets nervous and pulls away in the same way I sometimes do when a beautiful woman 'catches' me checking her out… the look that lets me know I've given her butterflies.
Most guys write this off as 'rejection', as if by her looking away she saying that she's not interested. If those guys put their head down dejected and stop looking at her, they may just miss the best part.
True, sometimes she really isn't interested in any flirtatiousness, and sometimes she'll be too nervous and or anxious to look back. But sometimes… sometimes she won't be able to help it. Despite her nervousness, sometimes she musters up the courage to take one last sneak peek at the guy who made her heart go aflutter.
The question is, where are you when she sneaks that peek? Was your head already down, wallowing in your dejection? Or when her eyes popped back up to meet yours, did you get nervous and look away yourself? I've done that hundreds of times, if not thousands in my life.
Your third option is pretty amazing. When she looks back at you and you, fully aware of the emotional impact you just had on her, the nervousness that caused her to look away, simply smile to acknowledge that you 'caught her being a girl'.
For starters, when you do this you'll feel amazing. Try remember a moment where you felt more confident. You now have the option to walk away having enjoyed a little flirtatious moment that brightened up both of your days. Your other option is to say "Hey, how's it going" to the woman that is very clearly attracted to you, make her dreams come true, and see where things go from there.
This game has been going on around us for thousands of years – the only question is whether or not we're playing.

Veracruz Native, Mario Gutierrez, Rides to Victory at 2012 Kentucky Derby
Veracruz Native, Mario Gutierrez, Rides to Victory at 2012 Kentucky Derby
Just one year ago, Mario Gutierrez was watching the Kentucky Derby, dreaming of winning America's most famous race. Cut to Cinco de Mayo 2012, riding the horse "I'll Have Another," the Mexican jockey raced to victory on his first Kentucky Derby mount.
Gutierrez was born in Veracruz, Mexico but built his professional jockey career in Canada. Since 2006, Gutierrez has been one of the leading riders at Hasting Race Course in Vancouver, winning riding titles in 2007, 2008 before coming up short for a third on the final day of the meeting last year.
For Gutiérrez, the road to the Kentucky Derby has been an unexpected one. While every jockey dreams of riding in the sport's biggest spectacle, the dream didn't become reality for Gutiérrez until a couple of months ago.
"I come from a very small town, and my family didn't have much money," he explained. "I was racing quarter horses. I didn't even know about thoroughbred racing really. I just knew I wanted to be a jockey like my dad."
During his stint in Canada, Gutierrez was able to find rides in Northern California, and finally got a race at the famed Santa Anita. It was there that owner Paul Reddam first met Gutierrez and liked what he saw.
When Gutierrez was first introduced to I'll Have Another, man and colt clicked. Trainer Doug O'Neill recognized the bond that seemed to form between the two and Reddam decided to give the pair a chance, a decision that paid off big time.
"As a jockey, you dream, you wish you'll be there [at the Kentucky Derby], but you never expect it to happen," Gutiérrez said. "Every jockey trains to go there and ride in that huge race. I'm so excited and so happy that it happened to me," said Gutierrez.
Hall of Fame jockey Mike Smith, who finished second in Saturday's Derby aboard Bodemeister, rides with Gutierrez on the Southern California circuit.
"You know what, when you speak to him, there is nothing phony about this kid," Smith said. "Probably one of the nicest kids you will meet. He is the kind of guy you root for. When I realized it was going to be him that was going to beat me, I was hoping no one would pass him. He's that kind of guy. He's a genuine, nice, good person. They'll know him now, and you've not seen the best of him."
I'll Have Another will now look to take the next step towards becoming the first Triple Crown winner since 1978 when Affirmed swept the Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes within a five-week span. The Preakness takes place Saturday, May 19.

Coming back from a ski trip in Italy in 1981, I discovered this fragrance in a duty-free shop. I was first attracted to the unusual name & packaging. From the very first time I spray a little on my wrist, I knew this was MY fragrance. It has been my only fragrance ever since. Thank goodness for Fragrancex. I am retired with not much money so being able to save at least 25% was great. [...] This was a gift to myself and have enjoyed it immensely.It does not have any remote scent of Musk, which I am allergic to in case you might be too.Also, the name, Ysatis, is just a word that Givenchy created like so many of his beautiful couture designs. Pronounced : ee sa tees with long "e" sounds.It's name is as unusual as its scent. Enjoy.

I'm struggling with this review because I could not find this fragance in Richmond, VA anywhere and so I ordered a very small bottle to sample. Since I can't spray the perfume, it is too weak to notice. The lady I smelt it on smelled incredible, but I have to say this is not the case with me. It was rather dull and this might be why it is not for sale in our area.

The $500 senior picture
Expensive photos, a $379 class ring, a $600 senior trip -- does 12th grade really have to cost so much?
Over on BlogHer, a woman who writes under the pseudonym "Free Penny Press" took on after the tradition of senior photos. Her son's sitting and prints cost $400. And don't get her started on the $90 yearbook.
"That's as much as a Steinbeck limited-edition book. So I skip my electric bill this month so he can buy a book full of faces," she "wrote in the post "Senior year hollers: Avoiding bankruptcy and using common sense."
Lucky she doesn't live near Baltimore, or she'd feel pressured to shell out for a banner with her son's name, a sign for her yard and a bow to stick on the mailbox around graduation time. Jeannette Dennis paid $75 for those items when her son graduated six years ago.
"In our area it's almost as if you're not normal if you don't do this. I kind of caved in to the feeling that it was expected," Dennis says.
In all, Dennis and her husband spent more than $1,400 on items like the yearbook, a yearbook ad, cap and gown, graduation announcements, and prom tickets, clothing and flowers. That doesn't count things like standardized testing fees, college applications, campus visits, the baccalaureate dinner, a sports team dinner or a graduation party.
Memories cost money
When did 12th grade get so expensive? And how can parents hold the line?
Short form: It's tough, but it's not impossible.
To which I say: Some industries sure don't have a problem doing that. For example, Dennis spent $379 on her son's class ring, which he no longer wears. "Quite honestly, I don't even think that he knows where it is," she says.
The senior trip cost $600, but her son had to pay for it himself. And that $70 yearbook? He opened it once that she knows of -- to show it to his sister, now a high-school junior.
Christy McElroy's home-based medical transcription business was drying up and her husband had been laid off when their daughter hit senior year. They were matter-of-fact about the situation: The graduation industry exists to make money, and the family had none to spare.
A few of their strategies: no class ring, senior photos during a sale at a chain photography studio, prom dress from the Macy's clearance rack, backyard barbecue for the grad party.
"Many 18-year-olds really don't have a clue, don't realize mom and dad are not bottomless ATMs," says McElroy, of Puyallup, Wash.
'How much the world costs'
The 12th grade is a time of maximum emotion and excitement. Many teens have no perspective about where they'll be a year hence. (Hint: It is light-years away, psychologically, from senior homeroom.)
What might help: Asking a cousin or family friend who graduated a couple of years ago to weigh in. How long did she keep the souvenir "Class of 2011" tassel hanging from the rear-view mirror? How often does he wear that high-school letter jacket?
Deb Kelson, an at-home parent of six in Harrisburg, Ore., suggests bringing the teen into the equation and being upfront about what the family can afford: "You determine what you want, and we can work together to get it, as long as it stays within the budget."
Doing this will open your teen's eyes to "just how much the world costs," Kelson says.
You might not be able to put a price on memories. As adults, though, we can reduce the amount on the tag.
Readers: How did you handle senior photos, class rings and other "necessities"?
More on MSN Money:
This is becoming a racket second only to the wedding industry. My daughter graduated in May. I bought the yearbook for $75 (saved by ordering early) but passed on the school ring. Once a kid is in college, they will never wear a high school ring. And the prices of the rings were in the hundreds. They made me buy the cap and gown even though I still had my older daughter's. Why are we buying caps and gowns instead of renting them? What are we supposed to do with them after graduation especially if we aren't allowed to pass them down?
The answer to most of this stuff is simple: parents have to learn to say no. We're supposed to be saving for retirement, not buying 20 different mementos.
Daughter is currently a senior. Went with JC Penneys for senior portraits for a total of $30 because we are portrait club members. Did this for our oldest 3 years ago. Class rings - up to them. Both decided the $300 wasn't worth the number of hours their minimum wage jobs would take. Oldest bought a nice $100 ring because she likes jewelry, next went for a $20 ring as a momento. School pushes the class rings real hard due to a "ring ceremony" but any ring will do.
Will buy the announcements through the school. Too lazy to format and print our own, but that's only about $90.
Real cost for senior year is the college applications and test score sendouts.
I have no problem spending money on a yearbook, and even a class ring. These are items I still have from my senior year in 1983. And yes, I have looked at my yearbook and my daughter liked looking at the fashions and such of that time. As a matter of fact, I still have MY mom's yearbook from the 1940s. I will spend no money on the cap and gown if I have any choice in the matter. They are cheap material and, let's face it, can you ever see a time it will be worn again?
I have heard nothing about a senior trip, but that could be that my kids, both seniors this year, realize that money is tight and that is not something we could afford to do. As for photos, well, I work for a photo company that does senior pictures. We will do what we can as far as other "necessities". I am sure there will be things they would like to have, but we can't afford everything. If they want these things badly enough, they will have to earn or save the money themselves.
One of the best things we have done is to open savings and checking accounts for the kids. Throughout high school they have been learning how the real world works financially. I believe they are better off than a lot of kids when it comes to understanding that we are not a bottomless source of money.
I am a high school teacher who used to be over the yearbook, and I also used to work at a jewelry store. Here are a few of my tricks:
1. A lot of high schools sign a contract with their photography companies saying that they will not use any other individual class portraits than those offered by that company. When the yearbook advisor goes to load the class portraits into the yearbook, they come straight off of the photography company's picture CD. To save money, opt for the free/low cost individual portrait to get your child's picture in the yearbook. Then, go elsewhere to have the rest of his/her senior portraits made and purchase your packages there. (Keep in mind, though, the school gets a cut of the profits from class pictures. They might lose money that's used for school technology programs or scholarships. You weight the decision.)
2. Instead of buying an expensive class ring that many students don't wear after senior year, visit your local jewelry store. Some teens are smartly opting to buy a less expensive ring from their local jewelers with their graduation date, high school name, or initials engraved on the inside (or the outside if you wish). They can pick a stone that is either one of their school colors or their birthstone. Then, they have a ring that is appropriate to wear for life. (And cheaper, too!)
3. When purchasing a senior ad in the yearbook, think about splitting the cost and the page with your child's friends (and their parents).I've had up to four kids split one page. In the center they included a picture of them together as children. (Not a good idea for boyfriends and girlfriends, though.)
4. For prom, encourage your local high school to have a dress resale day. Students donate their old dresses. They receive vouchers from a parent or teacher in charge of the event. Then they pay a small, adjusted price for a gently used dress. The proceeds can either benefit the school, a scholarship program, or prom, in general.
5. If you want to buy a yearbook, ask your high school if they have a payment plan. Some yearbook company's will break the cost into two or three payments. However, keep in mind that most schools' annual staffs raise money to lower the cost of the yearbook. The price that they pass forward to the students is most likely the exact amount per book that the school is paying. Costs have also risen tremendously for the book companies, too.
6. Encourage your school to rent caps & gowns. However, this may be difficult as the sales of caps & gowns also earn the school a check. Perhaps there is a compromise. Maybe the school can earn the same amount of money off of a smaller rental fee. Also, keep in mind that every child is guaranteed a "free public education." They cannot legally keep your child from graduating because of the inability to pay school fees unless it is a private school.
7. Instead of buying the advertised senior announcements and graduation cards, check prices online. Many internet-based companies are a lot cheaper.
8. Finally, with Christmas just around the corner, consider making your own "gift certificates" for senior expenses like trips, yearbooks, senior ads, etc. Encourage your family members to do the same. AND a little known fact is that if you make a senior ad, your school's yearbook staff can usually give you a PDF copy on a flash drive or CD. Take this to your local photo print store (like Wolf Camera), and you can have the senior ad blown up into a poster for under $40. It makes a nice wall decoration for college, and you can announce the complete gift of the senior ad at the same time!
Best of luck to all of you hard-hit senior parents out there. Us teachers know it's tough, too, because we are also feeling tremendous financial hits with the current economic climate. Support education, and remember when you vote, economists have proven educating our children is one of the best way to ensure we strengthen our economy!
Dtr graduated in June. Everyone warned me just how expensive Senior year can be. She did get a class ring- wore it for a year and a half. She went off to college and it now sits in her jewlery box. The 2012 tassel is hanging in the car that did NOT go to campus. I paid $300 for senior pictures, did them through the school and I think they came out nice. Prom was $120 total between shoes, dress. She helped pay for the $75 yearbook. Senior trip was $500- it was with her friends from orchestra, she gave some money for it, grandparents paid for some, we paid for some. Paid $75 for cap, gown and announcements. Couldn't get away with no announcements since family is scattered all over the country and they wanted to know.
We went out for dinner after graduation. Granparents paid (because they never see us and they wanted to). Graduation party was in our backyard. Husband grilled hamburgers, the grandmas made sides. Though husband said he will never grill for that many people again (25 people or so), since getting food catered was almost as cheap as us feeding everyone. It was more of a week-long celebration, we had family come in from 3 different states and they all stayed about a week

Smart Idea: Skewer Slender Vegetables for Easier Grilling
Skewering all a bunch of asparagus spears through the thick parts of the stems is so smart. Not only does this keep them from rolling and falling through the grates, but it also makes the spears easier to flip and to transfer on and off the grill. This is also a great idea to apply to other slender vegetables, like baby carrots, spring onions, green beans, and Japanese eggplant.
Head over to Aki and Alex's blog to read their post on skewered asparagus and get more great tips:
→ Skewered Flat on Ideas in Food
3 Comments
if you put two skewers through them (through each end of the asparagus stalk), they're even easier to flip!
I have used the thin skewers that come with the packet for trussing poultry. They are thin and you can use them in each end of the stalk (like missjulia). When I taught grilling class I used to call them asparagus rafts!! So easy to turn when both ends are skewered. And the thin skewers can be used on thin asparagus whereas the heavy ones can not.
This is going to make my summer grilling so much easier. I have already lost quite a few asparagus through the grill this year.

I need to start uploading more photos. So here is the dusty sunrise as seen from my schoolyard the other day. We are in the middle of the dry season now and it hasn't rained in 6 weeks or so. This coupled with the dirt road beside our school means a lot of dust gets kicked up. Not good to breath but it sure does make for a nice early morning photo.

This is such a beautiful old house, with loads of charm and personality. The house sits on farmland and is home to many retired racing horses and a variety of other farm type animals. Upon arriving we were greeted by Maurine the Inkeeper. She is just the friendliest host we have ever encountered. She gave us a tour and a brief history of the house. After seeing all the rooms, I was very pleased to have the one downstairs as it is just amazing!

The radeonhd's 3D support for the series Radeon HD 2000, 3000, and 4000 is already in good condition, so a useable Open Source 3D-support can be expected shortly. AMD has also released a PDF document which is intended to clarify the development for the newest chip sets R600 and R700, as Phoronix.com announced.
The forty-page comprehensive PDF document with the title "Radeon R6xx/R7xx Acceleration" delivers a fundamental overview of the ASIC-architecture and also contains a twenty-page programmer piece. The documentation can only be found on the webserver of the X.org Project for the time being, but should also be available on the AMD site at a later date.

Manipal University > Institutions > Medicine > KMC Manipal
Kasturba Medical College (KMC), Manipal was established on June 30, 1953, by late Dr. T. M. A. Pai.
The late Dr. Tonse Madhava Anantha Pai (1898 – 1979), physician, educationist, banker and philanthropist, was the founder and builder of modern Manipal. He established educational, medical, banking and industrial enterprises of national importance and repute.
The Kasturba Medical College started with only the pre-clinical section at Manipal as the students had to go to Mangalore for their clinical training. In 1969, when the clinical programme started in Manipal, KMC became a full-fledged independent college.
Kasturba Medical College is the first college in the private sector and ranks among the top five medical colleges in the country today. Students from 44 countries have graduated from the college, and its degrees are recognized worldwide.
With the first graduating class of students in 1958, KMC was granted recognition by the Medical Council of India. Recognition by the General Medical Council of Great Britain and the Malaysian Medical Council soon followed. Today, Manipal University (of which KMC is a constituent college) degrees are recognized in all countries. The physical facilities for research work and student amenities have been steadily developed over the years. The 200-acre campus provides one of the finest environments for study in south Asia.

Something we can all look forward to.
Kyle Kendrick pitched great yesterday and Kevin Frandsen had four hits in a game that will mostly be remembered for the popup that Jimmy Rollins didn't run out on his way to being benched. The Phillies held on to win anyway and beat the Mets 3-2.
Kendrick gave up two solo home runs in the first two innings to give the Mets an early 2-0 lead. Rollins doubled with two outs in the bottom off the third and was knocked in by Frandsen, cutting the lead to 2-1. Mayberry led off the fourth with a single and scored when Wigginton followed and blasted a double to the gap in left-center. 2-2. Frandsen started the fifth with a double, moved up to third on a ground out and scored on a sac fly by Howard to put the Phillies up to stay at 3-2.
Kendrick yielded two early solo homers, but was fantastic after that. From the third to the seventh he pitched five scoreless innings in which he allowed two hits, no walks and no runs. He struck out the first two batters in the eighth before allowing back-to-back singles. Valdes took over to get the Phillies out of the eighth and Papelbon mowed the Mets down in the ninth for his 30th save.
The game will most be remembered for what happened in the bottom of the sixth inning. With one out and Kendrick on third, Rollins popped a ball up high in the infield in front of home plate. The Mets were confused about who was going to catch the ball. In the end, pitcher Jon Niese tried to catch it himself, but didn't handle it for an error. Rollins, who had jogged slowly up the line, ended up at first. Rollins stole second, setting him up for his second blunder of the inning. With one out and runners on second and third and the New York infield poised to come home with a ground ball up the middle, Frandsen hit a ground ball up the middle. Murphy fielded, Kendrick held third and Rollins took off for third, where he was tagged out after a short rundown. Martinez replaced him at short in the top of the seventh.
Not a great inning for Rollins. But not to be forgotten on the day was the run that Rollins helped create in the bottom of the third thanks to his hustle. With two outs and nobody on, Rollins popped a ball down the first base line and into shallow right field. It dropped just fair. Running all the way, Rollins slid into second with a two-out double and came in to score when Frandsen followed with a single into center.
The Phillies are 62-69 on the year after beating the New York Mets 3-2 yesterday afternoon. The Mets take the series two games to one. The Phillies are in third place in the NL East, 17 1/2 games out of first.
The Phillies have won five of their last seven games, but outscored their opponents by just 26-22 over those seven games. They shouldn't count on going 5-2 over many seven-game stretches in which they score 3.7 runs per game.
Kendrick got the start for the Phillies and went 7 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on seven hits. Three of the hits went for extra-bases, a double and a pair of solo homers. He didn't walk a batter and struck out six.
Mike Baxter was the first hitter of the game and he hit an 0-1 pitch out to right-center. 1-0. Kendrick got the next three in order.
Scott Hairston hit an 0-1 pitch out to left with one out in the second. 2-0. Ronny Cedeno followed that with a single, but Kendrick got Josh Thole and the pitcher Jon Niese to leave Cedeno at first.
At least Kendrick is getting ahead of these guys before they homer.
David Wright doubled off the wall in left with two outs in the third. Kendrick got Ike Davis on a ground ball to second to leave Wright stranded.
The lead was cut to 2-1 when Kendrick started the fourth. Hairston singled with one out, but Kendrick got Cedeno on a ground ball for the second out and struck Thole out to end the frame.
Kendrick threw a 1-2-3 fifth with the score tied at 2-2.
Up 3-2, he set the Mets down in order in the sixth and again in the seventh.
He struck out Tejada and Baxter to start the eighth before Murphy and Wright singled back-to-back. It put runners on first and second for the lefty Davis and Valdes came in to face Davis. Valdes got him on a ground ball to first to leave the runners stranded.
Brave of Manuel to leave Kendrick in to face Wright as the go-ahead run. Worked out okay in the sense that Wright didn't hit a two-run homer.
Valdes has allowed a run on three hits and a walk over 9 2/3 innings in nine appearances in August.
Papelbon started the ninth with the Phils still up a run. He struck Duda out for the first out and Hairston went down on a ball Nix handled at the edge of the warning track for the second. Righty Justin Turner hit for the pitcher Robert Carson and Papelbon hit him with a 2-2 pitch. Andres Torres ran for Turner at first. Josh Thole went down on a ball handled by Utley to end the game.
Over his last 16 appearances, Papelbon has allowed one run on eight hits and four walks over 16 1/3 innings while striking out 19 (0.55 ERA with an 0.73 ratio).
The pen goes 1 1/3 scoreless innings in the game in without allowing a hit or a walk.
Papelbon threw 15 pitches and Valdes one. Neither of them have thrown more than one day in a row.
The Phillies lineup against lefty Jon Niese went (1) Rollins (2) Frandsen (3) Utley (4) Howard (5) Mayberry (6) Wigginton (7) Martinez (8) Lerud. Frandsen moves up to hit second against the lefty. Wigginton makes his second start of the year in left with the lefties Brown, Pierre and Nix on the bench. Martinez in right with all the same lefties on the bench. The lefty Lerud catches, making his first career start, with the righty Kratz on the bench in the day game after a night game. Sure seems like if you know they're throwing a righty in game two and a lefty in game three it makes more sense to catch Lerud in game two against the righty and Kratz in game three against the lefty. Starting Martinez in right field is a good sign that your team is terrible.
Frandsen singled with one out in the bottom of the first and the Phils down 1-0. Utley flew to left for the first out and Howard struck out swinging for the second.
It was 2-0 when the Phillies went in order in the second.
Lerud grounded to first in his first big league at-bat to start the third and Kendrick grounded out as well for the second. Rollins was next and hit a ball to right, which he hustled into a double. Frandsen was next and singled to center, scoring Rollins to get the Phils on the board at 2-1. Frandsen took second as the throw came home. Utley was next and was grazed by a pitch, putting two men on for Howard. Howard struck out swinging 2-2 to leave both runners stranded.
Nice job by Rollins to take second on his hit, which gets the Phils a run when Frandsen follows with a single.
Howard 0-for-2 with two strikeouts and three men left on base through three innings.
Mayberry led off the fourth and hit a ball to Wright. Wright's throw to first was high and originally called an error and quickly changed to a hit. Wigginton followed with a double to left center, scoring Mayberry to tie the game at 2-2. Niese struck Martinez out swinging for the second out, but Lerud was next and blooped a single to left. Wigginton didn't read it well and had to hold at third. Kendrick bunted Lerud up to second with the second out, putting runners on second and third for Rollins. Rollins popped to Murphy to leave both runners stranded.
Three hits in the inning for the Phils, but Mayberry's should have been called an error and Lerud's was a bloop single to left. Wigginton hammered the ball. The scoring decision on the ball hit by Mayberry was rather generous to Mayberry.
Frandsen led off the fifth and hit a ball hard to left where it was misplayed by Duda. Duda came in on it and then had the ball go over his head for a double. Utley was next and moved Frandsen up to third with a ground out to second. It put a runner on third for Howard and Howard flew to center for the second out. Frandsen scored and the Phillies led 3-2. Mayberry was next and doubled down the third base line. Niese walked Wigginton intentionally to pitch to Martinez. Martinez flew to center, dropping his average on the year to .134 and leaving both runners stranded.
With one out in the sixth, Kendrick hit a ball hard to center that cleared the fence on a hop for a ground-rule double. Kendrick took third on a passed ball before Rollins hit a popup out in front of the plate. Wright and Niese looked unclear about who was going to catch, then Niese tried and didn't get. Rollins was safe on first on the error with Kendrick holding third. Rollins stole second before Frandsen hit a ground ball to second. Rollins took off for third, but Kendrick was still at third. Rollins was tagged out after a short rundown with Kendrick still at third. Frandsen wound up on second, but Utley grounded to first to leave the runners at second and third.
Rollins didn't run hard on his popup that Niese failed to catch, which apparently was the subject of a discussion between Rollins and Manuel after the frame. There was no Met covering second as the infielders failed to catch the popup. Martinez took over at short in the top of the seventh with Rollins on the bench.
More terrible defense from the Mets.
Mayberry and Wigginton singled back-to-back off of righty Ramon Ramirez with one out in the seventh. Martinez struck out swinging for the second out and Lerud grounded to second for the third.
With Ramirez still on the mound, Brown hit for Valdes to start the eighth. Lefty Robert Carson came in to face Brown and Kratz hit for Brown and flew to right for the first out. Nix struck out for the second before Frandsen singled to right. Utley grounded to short to end the inning.
Kratz 2-for-his-last-19.
Rollins was 1-for-4 in the game with a hustle double, then pulled for not hustling in the bottom of the sixth. He was 2-for-11 in the series with two walks and two doubles. 243/303/407 for the season. He has hit 13 home runs since the start of June.
Frandsen 4-for-5 with a double. 5-for-13 with a double in the series. 355/405/430 for the season. There are 224 NL players with at least 100 plate appearances for the season. Of those, Frandsen's .355 average is first and his .405 on-base percentage is fifth. His walk rate is terrible by the way — four walks in 117 plate appearances is about 3.4%. The team overall walks in about 7.0% of their plate appearances. Near the end of the list it goes Pierre 5.2%, Mayberry 5.1%, Galvis 3.5% and Frandsen 3.4%. I also hope we get a chance to see Frandsen play some second before the end of the year.
Utley 0-for-4 and left five men on base. 3-for-11 with a walk and a home run in the series. 250/362/457 for the year.
Howard 0-for-3 with an RBI and three strikeouts. 1-for-11 with a home run, six RBI and seven strikeouts in the series. 1-for-his-last-18. 235/311/444 on the year. 182/246/309 against lefties with 30 strikeouts in 61 plate appearances.
Mayberry 3-for-4 with a double. 4-for-11 with a walk and a double in the set. 287/333/468 in 102 plate appearances since Victorino and Pence were traded. 246/287/408 for the year. No walks against lefties in 137 plate appearances for the year. Not sure exactly that that is, but it's something.
Wigginton 2-for-3 with a walk and a double. The walk was the only one of the game for the Phillies. 2-for-4 with a walk and a double in the series. 215/291/346 over his last 258 plate appearances. 236/307/375 for the year. He has 202 plate appearances against righties for the year in which he has hit 238/282/341.
Martinez 0-for-4, struck out twice and left five men on base. 5-for-his-last-59 (.085). 132/181/221 for the season.
Lerud was 1-for-4 with a single in his debut.
Halladay (8-7, 3.88) faces lefty Mike Minor (7-10, 4.71) tonight in Atlanta. Halladay has a 2.79 ERA and an 0.89 ratio in his five starts in August. The Phils have won four of those five games, but are just 10-9 in his starts for the season — 6-2 in his last starts after going 4-7 in his first 11 starts. Minor threw to a 6.20 ERA in his first 15 starts of the year through the end of June. Since the beginning of July, he's made nine starts in which he's thrown to a 2.75 ERA with an 0.88 ratio.

UCL Laws People
After a long career as a consultant, I now serve principally as a non-executive director on various boards of law and law-related businesses, including Ince & Co, Trust Tees plc, DAS Law Ltd, and Brachers LLP, and as non-executive chairman of Meyler Campbell Ltd. I am also retained strategic adviser to the board of the Huthwaite Group, a member of the advisory board of Obelisk Support Ltd, chairman of the Professional Services Think Tank, a trustee of The Harpur Trust and chair of governors at Bedford School.
I was called to the Bar in 1977, and was for a time a tax lawyer with Clifford-Turner (before it became Clifford Chance). I became one of the first UK specialist consultants to law offices in 1985. Since that time I have acted as a strategic adviser to hundreds of law firms - including firms in Europe, North America, Australia, New Zealand and South-east Asia. My advisory work has concentrated on strategy, law firm economics and valuation, and ownership and governance issues. I also have a particular interest in the implementation of the Legal Services Act 2007 and the effects that this is having on the market and on providers of legal services. My advice has also been sought by barristers' chambers, patent and trademark attorneys, corporate legal departments, governments, law societies and other professional associations.
In addition to my board and advisory work, I am professor of strategy at the University of Law. I follow developments in the legal services market and in regulatory policy, and engage with government, regulators, professional bodies, practitioners and others. I have a firm belief in the supply of effective legal services by strong, independent providers and practitioners who are appropriately regulated and qualified to offer professional advice and to manage their businesses. I am also a visiting professor at IE Law School in Madrid.
Since 2008, I have sat on a number of strategic and advisory groups for the Ministry of Justice, the Legal Services Board, the Legal Ombudsman, the Solicitors Regulation Authority, the Bar Standards Board, and the Bar Council.
I am the author of Law Firm Strategy: Competitive Advantage and Valuation (Oxford University Press, 2007) and Making Sense of Law Firms (Oxford University Press, 1997), as well as of other books on professional practice, and co-author with Derek French and Christopher Ryan of Company Law (30th ed., Oxford University Press, 2013). I was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in 1991, and of the College of Law Practice Management in 2000.
