You managed to put Guy from Final Fight into stick figure action. Am I the only one who noticed this? SImply great. He even loses life for his hurricane kick, just like in final fight.
you guys must be blind.....it says XAIO XAIO not xiao xiao !!! btw the movies are way better than the games :)
lmfao "xiao xiao" hahahaha.....its xaio xaio, morons
Good work. Very good work.
My compliments to the chef. o.0 ANYwho, that was wonderful. However, it was lacking in the BGM department, and it could use a bit less on the ending boss. I'm still trying to beat him. The fights are fun, unless you're cornered, but you did add the "protect" thing. Also, there's a lot of off-screen fighting. Enemies go off the screen and are hard to find when they do that, also they tend to get stuck on a lot of things. Other than that, this is awesome. Can't wait to play the real thing.
needs more sound like music so play ur own sweet
Great game
Great game. Sometimes the guys would get stuck but that's ok makes it easier on me. Also could use some music. Music makes kicking ass more fun.

Hi guys! I made this GoFundMe account to try to raise money so I can support my dream of being able to not only visit Sydney, Australia but also get the full effect of doing everything from hiking in the rain forest to snorkeling in the crystal clear waters of Bondi Beach for a month!! Any sort of donations are so much help! My family is not able to help much with this because they all live pay check to pay check each month and me being a full time student who is unable to find any work makes it hard to come up with this kind of money on my own especially in such little time!! there is more of an explanation in the link! Thank you to anyone who even considers looking at this and tells their friends or shares it on facebook or twitter or any social media!! You have no idea how much this means to me!!
Perfeito aos meus olhos .

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/17/14 -- Highlights:
-- Board approval to proceed with construction of fully permitted Phase 1 Asanko Gold Mine. -- Capital Control Budget Estimate ("CBE") of US$295 million, in-line with Definitive Feasibility Study(1) ("DFS"), and fully financed with US$231 million(2) cash and US$150 million(3) project debt facility. -- Preliminary mine planning, based on the updated Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"), confirms mine plan in-line with DFS, producing 2.25 million ounces of gold over 11.5 year life of mine ("LoM"). -- Definitive Project Plan with updated MRE to be published as an NI 43-101 compliant technical report by Q4 2014. -- Ground breaking planned in Q3 2014 with first gold pour expected in Q1 2016.
Asanko Gold Inc. ("Asanko" or the "Company") (TSX: AKG)(NYSE MKT: AKG) is pleased to announce that the Board of Directors have made a positive financial investment decision to proceed with the construction of Phase 1 of the Asanko Gold Mine ("AGM" or the "Project") in Ghana.
Phase 1 is based on the construction of the Obotan Gold Project which was acquired during the takeover of PMI Gold Corporation ("PMI Gold") in February 2014. Phase 2 anticipates the inclusion of the adjacent Esaase deposit. Early works at the project site has been underway since April in preparation for a positive investment decision with progress on schedule. Project construction will commence shortly, with ground breaking expected within the next month. First gold is targeted in Q1 2016, with steady stage production anticipated in Q2 2016.
Asanko's President and CEO, Peter Breese, said: "The Board's approval of Phase 1 of the Asanko Gold Mine is the first step towards achieving our vision of becoming a mid-tier gold producer. Our detailed engineering work to-date has confirmed the robustness of the Project, with the CBE in-line with PMI Gold's 2012 DFS. Now that we have approved the Project, we are targeting steady state production of approximately 200,000 ounces per year in Q2 2016.
With the Project fully permitted, financed and a team of experienced mine builders and operators in place, we will, in parallel with construction, continue with our growth strategy. In particular we have begun to evaluate the optimal way to implement Phase 2 in order to bring to account the additional 2.2 million ounces of Mineral Reserves(4) at Esaase, while capturing the synergies we forecast when we acquired PMI Gold and created the Asanko Gold Mine."
Asanko Gold Mine - Phase 1
Phase 1 is based on PMI Gold's DFS for the Obotan Project, published in September 2012. The DFS targeted approximately 2.25 million ounces of gold production over an 11.5 year LoM via an open pit contractor mining operation and a 3Mtpa carbon-in-leach ("CIL") processing plant. The primary source of feed material for the CIL plant was the Nkran pit with satellite pits at Adubiaso, Abore and Asuadai being mined later in the mine life. The DFS estimated capital costs of US$296.6 million, cash operating costs of US$626/oz (US$722/oz including royalty and refining costs) and projected robust economic returns at US$1,300/oz gold.
Since acquiring PMI Gold earlier this year, the Company has updated the capital cost estimate to a higher level of accuracy suitable for use as a project CBE. The recently completed CBE estimates a capital cost of US$295 million including contingency for estimating inaccuracy and owner's contingency (see table below). The capital estimate is generally considered accurate to +/- 5%.
The CBE was designed on a modular basis to cater for the possible inclusion of Phase 2 of the AGM on the same site. Phase 1 has incorporated sufficient plant terracing and designed the plant layout and infrastructure to cater for the potential of Phase 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Asanko Gold Mine - Capital Estimate Phase 1 (US$ million) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Process plant 85.48 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mining (pre-production costs) 70.59 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Power infrastructure 18.18 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buildings, offices and accommodation 12.31 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- TSF, WRD, ROM, water supply, civil works 23.08 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CSR, owners team, G&A 47.37 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- EPCM 15.51 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sub total 272.52 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contingency & estimating inaccuracies 22.75 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 295.27 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Asanko is currently finalizing the updated MRE for the Nkran, Adubiaso, Abore and Asuadai deposits and does not anticipate that the MRE will be materially different to the current disclosure. Based on the revised MRE, a preliminary mine plan has been prepared. The Definitive Project Plan is not expected to be materially different to the DFS mining plan of 2.25 million ounces of gold produced over an 11.5 year LoM.
The Company is continuing to work on detailed mine planning and pit sequencing optimizations, including a mine plan for the recently discovered near-mine deposit Dynamite Hill. This detailed mine plan will be included in the Definitive Project Plan, along with updated operating costs and economic return calculations. The results of the Definitive Project Plan are expected to be published by Q4 2014 in a revised NI 43-101 report for the Project.
Phase 1 Project Schedule and Key Milestones
The Company's key Project timelines remain on schedule:
Original Current Guidance Status Commence early works Q2 2014 Nearing Completion Near mine resource definition drilling at Dynamite Hill Q2 2014 Complete Finalize revisions to the Red Kite financing arrangements Q2 2014 Complete Investment Decision for Phase 1 Q3 2014 Complete Definitive Project Plan including updated MRE Q4 2014 Ongoing Commence Project Construction Q3 2014 Start - August Evaluate trade off studies for Phase 2 Q4 2014 Underway Commissioning and Ramp-up Q1 2016 Q1 2016 Steady State Production of greater than 200,000 oz/year Q2 2016 Q2 2016

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

Dalhousie hospitality
Dalhousie Golf Club this week has again offered its outstanding course and its hospitality for the second year in a row to the American Junior Golf Association. The just-ended tournament was enhanced by some great performances as well as outstanding weather for August in Missouri.
Next year, the AJGA will be back, this time with its Rolex Tournament of Champions, which will bring some of the finest young golfers in the world to Dalhousie -- even more so than the recent tournament.
Last year's Dalhousie Junior Championship was recognized by the AJGA as its Tournament of the Year based on charitable contribution, community support, media relations and overall execution that makes the event special for players, families and the AJGA staff. There is little reason to think this year's tournament wasn't even better.
Dalhousie and the other fine golf courses in Cape Girardeau and Jackson -- Cape Girardeau Country Club, Jaycee Municipal Golf Course, Bent Creek Golf Course and Kimbeland Country Club -- are among the amenities that raise the bar on leisure activities in this area. On more than one occasion the local golf courses have garnered statewide and national attention.
Hats off to the Dalhousie organizers, the AJGA staff, the young golfers, their parents and the many golf fans who made this week so special. We'll be looking for you next year at the big Rolex event.

Get Down OC
In the big book of nightlife commandments, sacrificing a fashionably late entrance by leaving the house early is a definite no-no. Many of you jaded night owls wouldnt be caught dead lining up for a club before midnight. However, showing up late for Get Down OC, Proofs weekly sacrament of electro and house, could lead to the greatest sin of all: waiting outside for a really long time. Since its inception in 2008, the event has become an institution among fans of cheap drinks, hard beats and packed dance floors. Propelled by the turntable prowess of resident DJs Jazzwell and Jimmy Rigg, Get Down is the only event in downtown Santa Ana that will rope you to the dance floor even before youve taken advantage of their drink specials. By the way, $2 shots and complimentary champagne for the ladies are always good reasons to show up by 11 p.m. Remember, if you want to Get Down, you have to get in early.

Mitford meets Mayberry in the first book of the Coming Home to Ruby Prairie series. In the small town of Ruby Prairie, Texas, even the most blessed of plans can go amazingly awry. A Town Called Ruby Prairie tells the story of newly widowed Charlotte Carter, who moves to town with plans to open a foster home for troubled girls. Fiercely independent and determined to succeed on her own, Charlotte soon learns that caring for six teens is much more challenging than she expected. One crisis follows another until the quirky, good-hearted people of Ruby Prairie rally their support to keep the home open. This humorous and inspirational story celebrates the joys found in the simple things of life - faith, friends, family, and community.

Coming Home to Ruby Prairie Series

The little cat lay heavy, warm, and limp in Charlotte Carter's lap—bleeding right onto her new white pants. She stroked the animal with one hand and struggled to hold the phone and punch numbers with the other. After four long rings, an answer.
Her words tumbled out in a hyperventilated rush. "Have I reached Dr. Ross? the veterinarian?"
"You have. Who's calling?"
"It's Snowball ... I mean, it's Charlotte. Charlotte Carter. We met last Sunday. At church."
There was a thoughtful pause. "Mrs. Carter. Yes, I remember. You were sitting by yourself, toward the back. Do you wear glasses?"
"Yes. Sometimes. I need them for reading. About my—"
"Of course. I remember now, Mrs. Carter. I'm a deacon at Lighted Way, and I read your visitor card. You bought Tanglewood, didn't you? A great old house. I'm sure you'll fit right in at Lighted Way. You do realize that wasn't our regular preacher. Pastor Jock was out of town. But we were glad to have you anyway. Hope you'll come back. Nice of you to call, Mrs. Carter."
"Thank you. Yes. I will. I mean I'll try to. Uh, Dr. Ross, what I'm calling about is my cat. I know it's late, and I am so sorry to bother you at home; but I didn't know who to call, and I'm afraid she just got hit by a car. I—I found her in the middle of the street, a good quarter mile from my house—which doesn't make any sense because Snowball has never been one to wander."
"Cats tend to roam when they're in a new place," said Dr. Ross. "You did just move here?"
"Yes. Two weeks ago tomorrow."
"Mrs. Carter, have you ever taught Sunday school?"
"Yes, but Snow—"
"Wonderful. Now you know cats will roam till they get settled in. You might want to keep her inside till she gets used to the new place. An old wives' tale says that if you put butter between a cat's toes it won't try to go back to its old home. Never put much stock in the procedure myself, though." Dr. Ross chuckled. "I'm trying to remember now. Is it the third graders or the fifth graders who need someone to fill in?"
"Yes, sir. About my cat—I planned on keeping her inside for a while, but it's sort of too late. You see, at first I thought she was just an empty sack or some trash or something, but when I got closer ..."
This time Charlotte's words got through.
"You say she got hit? Your cat? How's her breathing?"
"Kind of funny."
"She trying to fight you?"
"No." Stroking the limp cat, Charlotte tried not to cry.
"We best take a look. Have you got a cat carrier? No? Well, then, wrap her up in a towel and put her in a box. I'll meet you at the clinic. You know where it is?"
"Just down from the post office?"
"That's right. Four Paws Pet Clinic. Sign's out front."
Charlotte wiped her eyes on the tail of her shirt.
"Don't get in any hurry. Be careful. Are you okay to drive?"
"I think so. Yes. I am." She had to be.
"Okay. See you in ten minutes."
Charlotte eased the injured cat out of her lap and onto a kitchen chair and raced through the house looking for a box. A shoe box, a packing box, any kind of box. But as she'd unpacked her things, she had carted all the boxes to the curb, and the garbage truck had come yesterday.
Think, Charlotte. Think. She made herself take a deep breath.
Crackers. They came in a box.
Charlotte grabbed the cracker box and emptied it out onto the kitchen counter.
"Mew," came a weak sound.
"Hold on," Charlotte called to the cat. The way the cracker box was shaped, she'd need to tape up the end and cut an opening in the side. Masking tape? Duct tape? Did she even have any? Charlotte scrambled through drawer after drawer but did not find a thing. Drat! What was she thinking? Snowball was not going to fit in a cracker box! What now?
She dashed to her bedroom. Yes! She pulled out her lingerie drawer and dumped all her underwear out onto the bed. This would do. Once she'd wrapped Snowball in a pink bath towel and set her in the drawer, off they went.
Or at least, off they went once Charlotte found her keys.
Dr. Ross, short, squat, and dressed in his everyday uniform of blue work pants and a loose-fitting embroidered Mexican shirt, was waiting when they arrived. It was almost eleven.
"Let's see here." He lifted Snowball out of the drawer and laid her on the exam table. Matted with blood and mud, the little thing was so injured that she didn't even try to get away.
The vet snapped on a pair of latex gloves and flipped on a bright overhead light. After giving the cat a shot to ease her pain, he proceeded to look her over from head to tail.
"How bad is she?" asked Charlotte.
"Not good. See how her hip's positioned? Got some broken bones in that back leg, probably in both back legs. I'll X-ray her. Probably has other injuries, too. Belly's hard as a rock."
"That's not good?"
"Internal bleeding."
"What can you do for her?"
Dr. Ross sighed. "Mrs. Carter, after thirty-seven years of practice, I still hate this part. We've got a couple of options."
Charlotte stroked the cat's chin. She thought she detected a weak little purr.
"I can do surgery on her and maybe fix her up. But nothing's for sure."
He nodded. "Cats are tricky. Patching her up will be expensive. Could run close to a thousand dollars, and there's no guarantee that she'll be all right when we're done. It might be better to think about putting her to—"
"Can I pay it out?" Charlotte cut him off.
Dr. Ross looked up.
Charlotte bit her lip. "I'm not one to fuss over animals. I understand there comes a time when it's best to put them down. But Snowball belonged to my late husband, J.D. He was a fool over her. Kept one hook baited on his trotline down at our little pond just so she could have her fresh fish. So many times I've watched him sit and pick the bones out of a catfish and feed it to Snowball right out of his hand."
Dr. Ross peeled off his gloves and took a seat on a stool. "How long has your husband been gone, Mrs. Carter?"
"It's Charlotte. Six months."
"I see. I'm sorry to hear of your loss. I can't help but wonder what's brought a new widow like you to Ruby Prairie. We've not exactly got a booming metropolis here. There aren't many jobs for a person unless you're a schoolteacher or a nurse or you own some kind of business. I don't recall any Carters in Ruby Prairie. Are your people from around here?"
"No. Just me." Charlotte wasn't inclined to share more.
The short-acting shot began to wear off. Snowball raised her head, looked at Charlotte, then lay back down.
"I don't think I can let her go just yet," said Charlotte, her voice tight.
"Okay then." Dr. Ross stood up and patted Charlotte's hand. "I'll do my best to fix the little gal up. Let me call Lindy, my granddaughter. She assists me when I do surgery. Soon as she can get up here, I'll take Snowball back and we'll get started. In the meantime, you go on home and get some rest. Jot down your number, and we'll call you when we're finished. It may take several hours."
Charlotte hesitated. "May I stay with her till you're ready to start?"
"Sure." Dr. Ross went to make coffee.
"Poor baby." Charlotte stroked Snowball's bloody, matted fur. "You're going be all right. Yes, you are." Tears fell. "Doctor's gonna take good care of you. You'll be out catching a mouse before you know it."
How in the world am I going pay for all this? She hadn't budgeted for such an expense. And until she got the money from ...
The kitty looked up with adoring blue eyes.
Within fifteen minutes a teenaged girl—apparently the granddaughter—popped her head into the exam room where Charlotte waited with Snowball. She had dressed for surgery in snowman-print pajama bottoms, pink flip-flops, and a Camp Red Oak T-shirt, size extra small.
"Hi. I'm Lindy. Sorry about your cat," she said as she pulled her hair back into a ponytail. "Granddad says she got hit."
"She did. I appreciate you coming up here in the middle of the night."
"No problem." Lindy yawned as she headed toward the back. "I'll see if he's ready for her." A moment later she was back. "Time to take her on back."
Charlotte gave the white cat one final rub behind the ears. "You be a sweet kitty. I'll be back."
"Don't worry," said Lindy. "We'll call you."
The night J.D. brought Snowball home, he had found her wet and mad, weaned but missing her mother. She was out alone in the rain, yowling her head off in the parking lot of a gas station where J.D. had stopped to fill up on his way home. When nobody claimed her, he scooped up the kitten and tucked her inside his sweatshirt jacket.
He'd come in the front door empty-handed, feigning ignorance of the little white head sticking out of his coat. "Cat? What cat?" he had teased.
How she missed that man. Only six months since he died, a year since he was first diagnosed.
"The bad news is that just as we suspected, the tumor was malignant. The good news is we think we got it all."
Nervous smiles all around.
Final bill in the mail.
Then weight loss.
Loss of balance.
And optimism that quickly wore thin.
The doctors were wrong. Like a hidden hot ember left smoldering in the attic of a once-burned house, J.D.'s cancer came back with a fury, tongues of it infiltrating lymph nodes, lungs, liver, and brain.
Turning down offer after offer of assistance from friends and extended family, Charlotte did everything for her husband. Bathed him, turned him, cleaned him up. She slept on a camp cot inches from his hospital bed in their living room. It was when she left him for ten minutes to sit alone on the front stoop of their house, to rest her back against the cold concrete steps and inhale her first whiff of outside air in three days, that J.D. chose to take his leave.
"Where is everybody?" he'd asked her the day before.
"Who, sweetheart? It's just you and me."
"Mother and Daddy. Grandma and little Jackson. They were just here. Standing right there."
Gone to glory. All four of them.
Seems they had come to bear her husband away.
For the first time since her move, weary and worried, Charlotte allowed doubts to enter her mind. Well-meaning friends and family had implored her not to make any major decisions or changes until at least a year after J.D.'s death. She'd politely listened to all their advice, then, true to her lone-ranger nature, gone against every word of it. What was the point of waiting some arbitrary length of time? Charlotte knew exactly what she wanted to do with the rest of her life.
Would things work out according to plan? She hoped so. She'd prayed so. As soon as the money came in and all the legal stuff was settled, she could get on with her dream. And, as far as she could tell, Ruby Prairie was the perfect location for what she had in mind. Good schools. Good churches. Low cost of living. Small-town values.
She'd done her research, but one could never be sure.
The drive home took ten minutes. In her haste to get Snowball to the vet she had neglected to turn on the porch light, and the night was dark and moonless. Not yet adjusted to the worrisome bifocals her forty-year-old eyes had only recently begun to require, Charlotte carefully picked her way across the yard, avoiding gopher holes. Had she locked the house? She couldn't remember but paused to dig in her purse for her keys just in case.
Charlotte jumped.
"Meow. Meow."
She felt soft fur against her ankles.
What was this? Charlotte only had one cat. A white one.
Which was the color of the cat at her feet.
A small one.
Which was the size of the one at her feet.
Doing her best to avoid tripping over the strange cat, Charlotte made her way to the porch and turned on the light.
It couldn't be.
"Meow. Meow." The cat's message was clear: Where have you been? I'm hungry. And what is that strange cat smell that's all over you?
Charlotte sat down hard in the rocking chair next to her front door. Snowball jumped up on her lap. The cat's erect tail grazed her face as the she padded back and forth across Charlotte's knees.
"Oh my."
She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
So she did a little of both.
At ten past eight the next morning, Charlotte heard the phone ring.
"Dr. Ross here. Mrs. Carter, we're done, and I've got good news. Only one leg's broken, and the internal injuries weren't as bad as I first thought. You should be able to pick up your cat by the end of the week. Uh, can you hold on just a sec?"
He held his hand over the mouthpiece of the phone.
"Sorry 'bout that," said Dr. Ross. "Lindy's filling out the records on your cat right now. What did you say her name was?"
"Visa," said Charlotte. "Just put down Visa."
Lord, prayed Charlotte later that day, I told You I was ready to take in a few extras, ready to take care of them, love them, provide them with what they need. I've got to be honest, Lord. A stray cat was not what I had in mind.
She held Snowball in her lap and let her mind drift. If things went according to plan, Visa—the lucky kitty of mistaken identity—would not be the last stray to come to live at her new Ruby Prairie home.CHAPTER 2
Kerilynn Bell, mayor of Ruby Prairie and owner of the 'Round the Clock Cafe, came up behind Chilly Reed and nudged his arm. "You boys planning on ordering or paying rent on this booth?"
Chilly jumped. "Why you always sneaking up like that?" he asked.
"Not sneaking up on nobody. You're just goosey 'cause you're feeling guilty. If you hadn't been gossiping you'd of known I was here." She poured them coffee without being asked. "What're y'all having?"
As if she didn't know. Chilly and his sidekick, Gabe Eden, would have the Thursday Morning Special—two eggs over easy, coffee, and a side of hash browns for $2.29—just as they did every week.
"I'll have the special," said Chilly.
"Me too," said Gabe.
Kerilynn didn't bother to write it down. She went to the kitchen and returned in a few minutes with their food.
"Single gal?" Chilly was asking.
"What I hear," said Gabe.
Gabe looked up at Kerilynn. "Sugar, you gonna bring us some extra biscuits?"
"More biscuits!" fussed Kerilynn, refilling their coffee cups. "You boys 'bout run me ragged. No wonder I can't keep any meat on these bones. Speaking of which, Gabe Eden, the way your gut's swelled up, looks like you've got a case of biscuit poisoning already. You sure you don't want dry toast instead?"
"Yeah. Bring him dry toast. Make it whole wheat." Chilly winked at Kerilynn as she headed back to the kitchen.
Gabe ignored them both.
"Come on. What you figure a woman by herself is doing buying a big place like Tanglewood? That house has got five bedrooms at least. And what does it sit on—an acre and a half?"
"Six," corrected Chilly, who dabbled in real estate on the side. "Little better'n an acre. She ain't bought it yet, though. Got a lease with an option."
"That right? Still, seems to me that's an awful big place for a single gal."
"She's not single. She's a widow. Could be she's putting in one of them bedand-breakfast joints. Or a beauty parlor. Might be a gift shop. Maybe she sells Amway. Place is big enough she could live upstairs and have a business down below."
"I reckon." Gabe sipped from his cup. "You seen her?"
"Yep. She was at church last Sunday. Got out before I could meet her, though."
"Nice looking?"
"Better'n average."
"Pretty as me?" Bottle-blonde Kerilynn, grandmother of three, was back with hot biscuits—which she held just out of the reach of both men.
"Nowhere near, darlin'," said Gabe.
"Good answer." She plopped the biscuit basket down dead center in front of his plate and sashayed her skinny self back to the kitchen.
"Come in, girls," said Sassy Clyde to the arriving members of the Ruby Prairie Women's Culture Club. "Make yourselves at home."
Ginger Collins, fearful of dogs all her life, lingered on the front stoop.
"Ginger, you're clear. I've got the dogs put up in the guest bedroom."
Nomie Jenkins, this year's Culture Club president, called the meeting to order. "We've got lots to discuss tonight, ladies. Let's get started. Lucky?"
Lucky Jamison, at eighty-four the club's oldest member, led the group in prayer as she'd done every month for the past forty-odd years. When she was finished, Sassy began serving refreshments, with Kerilynn's help.
"Everybody having spiced tea? I've got cream cheese pound cake for the regulars and sugar-free angel food for the diabetics."
"As I said," continued Nomie, once everyone had cake, "we've lots to discuss. First on the agenda is a possible new member. Charlotte Carter's her name, and she's just moved to Ruby Prairie."
"Carter," said Lucky. "Don't believe I know any Carters. Her people from around here?"
"Don't believe so," said Nomie. "Ginger, can you hand me another packet of Sweet 'N Low? I need another smidgen of pound cake too, please."
"Where'd she come from?" asked Sassy.
"Somewhere up North," said Alice Buck.
"Oklahoma City," said Kerilynn.
"Les and I called upon her the night she moved in," said Ginger. "We didn't go inside, just stood out on the porch."

Product Description
From the Author
• Chapter 1 "Here's What's Going On With Your Back" starts out by going over the parts of your back you need to know about in order to get it better. I've included over 30 pictures in this section, so you'll be spending a lot more time looking at pictures than you will reading boring explanations. Then, after you know about how your back is put together, the chapter explains how the process of spinal stenosis occurs. There are three distinct stages your spine goes through as you get older, and readers might be interested to find out that these changes start with the disc. The chapter ends with some good news though - there are lots of people walking around with spinal stenosis that have NO pain. How can this be? This chapter will tell you - it's more important how your back functions, than how it looks on a X-ray...
• Chapter 2 "What Will Happen To Your Back Over the Long Run?" looks at what happens to people with spinal stenosis when researchers follow them over time. Readers will be interested in knowing that a good number of scientific studies have shown us that when spinal stenosis patients are followed for years and treated conservatively (without surgery), many actually improve over the long run.
• Chapter 3 is titled "Tune-Up #1: Making Your Back Much Stronger" and shows you five multifidus strengthening exercises. If you don't know what a multifidus muscle is, or that's its a key stabilizer of your back, well, you'll know all about it by the end of the chapter - and how to make it stronger fast!
• Chapter 4 "Tune-Up #2: How to Make Your Back More Flexible" teaches you how to make your back less stiff and more flexible. It doesn't take a million stretches - just three - and if you do them correctly, you should be able to make your back much less stiff with less than 5 minutes a day of stretching. Sound too good to be true? Not if you've read the stretching research I cite in the book...
• Chapter 5 is titled "Tune-Up #3: How to Improve Your Proprioception". The latest research is now telling us that people with low back pain have impaired proprioception in their spines. After reading this chapter, you'll know all the in's and out's of proprioception - and how to improve it!
• Chapter 6 "Putting It All Together: The Six-Week Program" pulls together all the exercises in the book and puts them in one place so you'll know how to get started. It's here you are told exactly what to do each day, and how many times a day to do it. This chapter contains 6-weeks' worth of exercise sheets so you can keep track of your exercise progress. While the exercises take less than 10 minutes a day to do, making progress with them is the key to getting better - and this chapter will help you do just that.
• Chapter 7 is "Measuring Your Progress" and contains a handy scale you can use to measure improving back function, and Chapter 8 are the references - the entire book is completely based on published research studies from peer-reviewed journals and randomized controlled trials.
• At 98 pages, I wrote this book so the reader could finish it in a few hours, and have all the tools they need to improve the function of their back and decrease their pain. Additionally, I have also written it in a little larger print, so those with vision problems will have an easy time reading it. Not only will these exercises help the person who has spinal stenosis, but they are also great exercises to keep anybody's spine in good shape.

I can recommend this book only as a starter though as there are other more informative and comprehensive alternatives costing about 5 pounds each. Costing more than 20 pounds this book is hugely overpriced and by no means covers all you would like to know about your back and your back pain. There is limited number of exercises and you may need more comprehensive approach to find what works for you.
Personally, I found pilates back books and videos much more useful and helping. Three stars for this one - maximum.
I found the exercise sections to be very well laid out and easy to understand. I really enjoyed the worksheets the author provided detailing which exercises you needed to do on which day. They have been very helpful in keeping track of everything. Although we are still in the first few days it's nice to be able to check off exercises as we complete them.
While my dad is the one who was diagnosed I've been doing the exercises along with him and I already feel my back is growing stronger and more flexible.
I am so glad I found this book and I definitely highly recommend it!
It is beautifully laid out, nice and clear, with lots of notes, illustrations and lists. It is just as easy to dip into certain sections as it is to read all the way through and also to refer back to, which I have done often. At the end of each chapter the information is reviewed for the reader to brush up or remind themselves. Everything is well explained by Mr Johnson in a very friendly style so that I felt completely confident and secure. Any questions that the reader might have are anticipated and answered without jargon or any extra padding.
Exercises can be difficult to explain through books but there are solid walk throughs here, lots of handy additional information and clear illustrations. I would certainly highly recommend this book!
