"Castelfranco Veneto" Castelfranco Veneto by croisbeauty
Castelfranco Veneto Travel Guide: 10 reviews and 79 photos
A few years ago, before joining to VT, I was on business trip in Castelfranco Veneto, spending here two days. I kept in my memory well preserved city walls around small but very beautiful old core of the town and since I like castles and fortified towns , had to comeback here with my camera.
As far as I know, there is another town in Italy with the same name, therefore it has Veneto in addition of the name in order to be distinguished.
Something need to be said about the city of Castelfranco Veneto, it is totally underrated destination with no reasons at all. Each tourist, who is visiting Venice or Treviso, should pay attention to visit certain places in the surroundings which worth to be seen. Those who admire well preserved fortified towns and medieval structures must come to Castelfranco because it is a perfect place for a half day trip. Others, who love arts, shouldn't miss it at all because it is a birth place of great Renaissance painter Giorgione. The city cathedral preserves "Pala" di Giorgione, which is one of only six paintings left after his death, when he was little over 30.
Like I said, the old core of the town is rather small and walkable, side to side, in relatively short time. Inside the city walls dominates architecture with characteristic and recognizable Venetian style.
This, on the picture, is part of the town situated right opposite to the city walls. It was Sunday, the election day, and many locals stood in front of the cafe-bars chatting about politics.
- Pros:Small fortified town of exceptional beauty - birth place of great Giorgione
- In a nutshell:perfect place for a day trip

Dolphin Lagoon, Singapore
17 Reviews
17 Reviews
I have always loved animals (except for these small ants, roaches and other discusting things... ;) ) and in Singapore I got a chance to do what I've dreamt about for many years - swim with dolphins.
When arriving in Singapore I had never heard about any pink dolphins (just pink elephants, but that's another story...), but I was happily surprised to see them at the Dolphin Show. First visit I just saw the show and was amazed just by that. Got back home and realised you could also pay extra and swim with them ahead of the show!
Said and done, before my next trip I made a booking online and on the morning after I arrived I brought Herny with me (I needed her to hold my hand, so nervous...). Quickly changed into bath shorts, and then say hello to the pink dolphins.
My ass dance was widely appreciated (specially by Herny who was about to die of laughter...) but the real fun begin when we stepped into the water and suddently had the pink dolphins all around us. An amazing feeling.
We got to feed them, swim with them, being dragged by them (the bastard dolphin thought it was really fun to take me two rounds around the pool, very fast) and at last also give them a kiss or a hug (one quick look at Herny and I decided that a hug was my only option...) and then the time was way too quickly up and out.
Well worth the money though, think I paid around 75 euro for the whole show, including a visit to the show (and also to the Underwater world I think). Just remember to book from home, as each group consist of just five persons, and there are just two groups each day.
Address: 80 Siloso Road, Sentosa Island
Directions: At the far end of Sentosa Island, right next to the beach. Very easy to find.

Sentosa is a great place to spend time with your child. My 12 yr old swam with the dolphins something she had saved up for herself. It was the highlight of her trip to Singapore. There were 9 in my daughters session and they split the adults & children into two groups. My daughter was with 3 younger children a group of 4 was perfect maximum time each with the dolphins. You are given life jackets & booties told the rules and some dolphin facts. These are rare pink dolphins so it made it even more special. For the $150 (Sing ) cost you get the swim , a tshirt, a painting and one photo included plus you can purchase other photos and take some of your own from the shore. She also got admission to the underwater world exhibit & I got a reduced entry for $18.50.

This attraction is associated with Underwater world and is included in the Underwaterworld ticket price. The show is Ok, but the seating which are plastic chairs on the beach makes the show hard to see. The show is not very spectacular to begin with.

They are just to fantastic. This was my first glimse of a pink dolphin. Aparantly they get the pinky colour due to something that is in the water that they feed on.
At the Dolphin Lagoon in Sentosa, visitors will get to witness the rare pink Indo-Pacific Humpback Dolphins perform their natural behaviors such as spyhop, tail -flapping, vocalizations, etc. Lucky visitors might even score a peck on the cheek, or a chance to wade next to these wonderful and highly intelligent marine mammals, fully supervised by the trainers, of course.

Did this 2 years ago and it was a fantastic experience - short but a great memory. After the show they announce that you can have your photo taken. $20 for 3 photos. You walk into the water, knee deep, bend down and touch the dolphin. It was amazing to be able to touch one of these fascinating creatures. It takes about 1/2 hr for the photos to be developed. We had an icecream and sat in the shade while waiting. I definitely recommend doing it.

No wonder Sentosa Island won the theme park award in 2007. One day is not enough to tour Sentosa around. Ours for 1 day, we were just able to visit the Underwater, Dolphin and Merlion. You'll be very very busy taking pictures of almost everything because everything is great and fun

Pink Dolphins are beautiful and they have given birth before in Sentosa. It signalled that the environment they are staying in is conducive. You can get to touch them and get a kiss(If they are in a good mood) There are a few shows but 5:30pm show is my "cooler" choice. The entrance is $5 but you can packaged it with the underwater world entrance fee and get a cheaper rate.

Ok.......since I really didn't know much about Sentosa Island I was really surprised to see the amount of stuff there is to do here.......I was really disappointed in the Underwaterworld and the Dolphin show......the pink dolphins were cool to see in person but the show was a barely 15 minutes long and in all honestly they didn't do anything special, besides swim around !!! I guess what I was more intrested in was the Shangri-La Hotel and the golf course around the Island....both are very exclusive and would be worth staying at; next time I come to Singapore !!!!! The little beaches around the island were desserted !!!!! well, it was a week day when we went I could just imagine how full they become on a weekeend !!!!! The only bad thing about my trip here was the cable cars are under repair !!!! and we had to take a taxi across the bridge in order to get into the island !!!! but I will come back and spend a day or two is total peace and quiet !!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT !!!!

The theme-park island is a popular weekend spot and one of the most visited attractions in Singapore. A day's excursion could turn into an overnight stay in any one of the hotels or camping sites. But we just went on a half day trip. The island is enveloped by a high-speed monorail and linked to downtown Singapore by a 1,640ft (500m) causeway and cable car system. Entertainment ranges from soaking up the sun on the imported-sand beaches to visiting a variety of entertainment areas. From a moving walkway one can experience the sea life of The Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon. The Images of Singapore Exhibition explores Singapore's history in life-size dioramas. On the furthest western point of the island lies Fort Siloso from which Singapore guarded its territory against invading Japanese forces. Other attractions include Volcano Land, the Asian Village and the water rides of Fantasy Island.
Directions: By bus, take Bus E from Orchard Road and Sentosa bus A or C from the World Trade Centre. By MRT to Tiong Bahru (W3) or cable car from Mount Faber

This dolphin show, to me, is somehow boring. Its cute and all but probably nothing is different from a dolphin show you've seen from elsewhere. Anyway, you might as well check it out cos it comes with the Underwater World package.
I'd recommend it to those traveling with family /with kids. Kids luv dolphins...so as some adults.
To get to the Dolphin Lagoon, you take a red line bus from Underwater World's bus stop.

Ok, I did it I went to the "tourist trap" of Underwater world. it was not worth the S$17 something as I expected. It was about the quality of a decent zoo aquarium. I went through the tunnel 3x (it was raining out all morning). Getting pictures in the tunnel is not easy due to the lighting. My 3rd time through I put away my camera and just enjoyed the sharks swimming over my head.
The dolphin lagoon was very good I thought. The show was very educational (I beleive anything they make animals do to entertian should also educate). I even paid the extra S$5 to get my picture taken with the dolphin (it was my birthday so why not). The picture thay take is of good quality and one of my favorite keepsake. PS Go in early to get a good seat and see the otters in between shows (so cute).

When I went to Sentosa fort he first time, I dragged my dad along to see the dolphin show (as i have never seen a dolphin up close)
We were running late and hopped onto a mini bus which zoomed us there just in time and watched the show. It was brilliant. They are beautiful creatures and so unusual with their pink skin. I had the opportunity to touch them but chickened out, as I am a bit scared of water (horrible swimming experience).
If anyone isn't too sure about going to see the show it is well worth the money, just get in line quick if you want to get your picture taken with them (there is no extra charge)
Also when you purchase a ticket for the show, you will get a free ticket for Underwater World

It's a nice show to watch, if you like animals. The dolphin are smart and friendly. They like humans.
During the show, dolphin trainer will tell you a little bit information about dolphin and show you what a dolphin can do.

Amazon.com Review
Q: Your first book Why Do Men Have Nipples" was a runaway bestseller. Was there one question that got the ball rolling for that book? What was it?
Goldberg: I collected questions for several years and the idea for the book was slowly percolating. I would have to say that "Why Does My Pee Smell When I Eat Asparagus?" was the question that really got things rolling with respect to finding the voice of the book. We have been accused of including too much potty talk and this one kind of broke the seal on that.
Leyner: The first question for me that got the ball rolling was posed by Dr. Billy Goldberg. It was: "Will you collaborate on this book with me?" Goldberg's a wonderful friend, the coolest doctor in New York City, a fantastically interesting figurative painter, and a pretty formidable tequila drinker. And I figured: what could be more fun than working with this guy and finally finding a way to parlay my perverse interest in medical and biological arcana into something people could really enjoy? It's like Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp forming a band!
Q: Do people recognize you two on the street now? What is the strangest question/comment you have received from fans?
Goldberg: Mark has been recognized several times on the streets of Hoboken, but the best I have gotten was one of the security guards at the hospital saying, "Hey Doc, I saw you on TV." That, and the nurses aides calling me Dr. Nipples.
Leyner: I went down to the lobby of a hotel recently because I'd eaten and drunk my mini-bar out of M&Ms and beer, and I needed MORE. The woman at the front desk said to me, "Hey! You're one of those Nipple Guys!!" My sky-rocketing Q-Score earned me a buttload of free Heinekin and Peanut M&Ms. Strangest questions... hmmmmm....either "What was it like being on Montel with mutant dogs and a psychic?" or "Do you two guys do medical experiments on each other?"
Q: How do you determine what questions to put in your books? Are there any questions or topics that you think are off limits?
Goldberg and Leyner: We put questions in that intrigue us, of course. And we especially love questions that make people giggle and cringe at the same time. Nothing is "off limits"... that's the sine qua non of the our whole enterprise. It's our ethos--there's NOTHING too embarrassing to ask.
10 Second Preview: An Excerpt
Okay, so here we go again. . . .
It feels a bit different this time. When we were writing Why Do Men Have Nipples?, we had no idea that anyone (other than our editor, wives, moms, and dads) would read the book. Shows what we know.
Our little nipples book has sold more than a million copies internationally and spent twenty-five weeks (and counting) on the New York Times bestseller list. You have no idea how much we have loved this ride and how much we adore babbling on TV and drive-time radio, and especially in the makeup rooms where we shamelessly flirted with a succession of fantastic makeup artists at all the major networks. (By the way, Mark prefers the spray-on nozzle method, which he likens to being simonized in a car wash.)
But a funny thing happened along the way. We quickly became aware of the fact that wed barely scratched the surface. As we talked to people whod enjoyed our first book, we began accumulating hundreds of new questionssome funny, down-to-earth, exotic, some embarrassing, some perplexing, but always thought-provoking enough that we knew wed have to include them in a brand-new volume.
We realized the gravity of the somber task ahead of us. We felt deputized. We knew we were now bound by honor and a fiduciary duty to you, our readers, to deliver unbiased, unadulterated, thoroughly researched, and unimpeachably factual answers to your questions. Humbled, but galvanized and inspired by the immense challenge that lay before us, we hunkered down in a windowless, antiseptic research cocoon, and made a solemn pledge to produce a new volume that would surpass the original and blaze new trails in the democratization of medical knowledge.Oh please . . . SEQUEL!!!!!!! Here it is . . . Why Do Men Fall Asleep After Sex?

What I found was that about half of this book [or more] consists of chat transcripts of the two authors bantering to each other, obviously convinced of their own hilariousness. There are also long introduction passages to each chapter recounting very far-fetched stories. They're funny stories, don't get me wrong, but they're so reminiscent of a sitcom in nature that I personally started doubting how 'factual' the rest of their book is. I found their very self-congratulatory style of writing to be rather grating as well. It just didn't lend itself well to investing much trust in the concreteness of their answers to the touted questions.
If you're looking for stuff similar to the Schott's series, I would not reccomend this book. If you want to read chat transcripts and throwaway humor with a few bits of interesting material thrown in between, then go for it.
I hate to believe that enough people were seriously that concerned about something so rediculous that they had to print it in the book.
As for half of the other questions, you got roundabout answers that weren't really answered, but fluffed to take up room.
Not worth the buy. My suggestion is to go to your boostore, find it, flip through the questions and read the answers you are honestly curious about and save your money.
Leyner's books open the world of objective thinking and scientific curiosty wide and deep. Yes, there is much humor between the pages. These books provide the answers to questions we have not yet learned how to ask and help us ask more. Well done.

The topics in various subjects that kept me laughing and intrigued. Each chapter starts with a short vignette followed by a concise, easy to read question and answer format. I quickly read the book in an evening and I could not put it down.
Various questions that riddled the ancients include:
Why do women live longer than men?

This book is so entertaining and compelling that you HAVE to read it.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
A lot of us have been observing Banned Books Week with lists of banned and challenged graphic novels and notes about recent challenges in libraries and schools, but this video of manga creator Akira Maruyama speaks to a larger issue: When books are suppressed, they may simply disappear.
Maruyama is talking here about shoujo manga (manga written for young girls). Most histories of manga start with the Year 24 Group, a cohort of female manga creators born in or around 1949 that includes Moto Hagio (A Drunken Dream, The Heart of Thomas), Ryoko Ikeda (The Rose of Versailles) and Keiko Takemiya (To Terra). Maruyama, who edited a shoujo manga magazine in the 1950s and 1960s, says that we have lost the body of shoujo manga that was published during that time, because it was not only disparaged but actively suppressed. Parents looked down on manga, regarding it as cheap slapstick, and, Maruyama says, "Left-wing thinkers thought manga was bad for the intellectual development of children." Children, on the other hand, preferred it to the "boring" storybooks of the day. The writers and leftists actually organized book-burnings in the summer of 1955, bringing manga its own Fredric Wertham moment. Manga was later rehabilitated, but the male critics (who didn't read shoujo manga) and the Year 24 creators (who were busy reinventing it) simply ignored first-generation shoujo manga. Maruyama defends this early manga, which the Year 24 creators grew up reading, and calls for researchers to search for this manga, preserve it, and bring it back into the public eye, restoring a lost chapter in the history of the medium.
Great find, Brigid. Thanks for posting this.
Certainly very interesting, especially the parallels between what happened in the US around the time Seduction of the Innocent was being passed around. The major difference being that it was ironically enough, girl's comics that essensially saved the Manga industry from being marginalized. Nowadays, people (still) tend to sneer at anything writen by women, deeming them to be "lesser works", but they're still strong enough that they're enjoyable rereading years later.
I wonder what particular Shojo titles / authors Maruyama has in mind that could be deemed worthy of a second look, especially if they were written by men?
Except you know there is actually very disturbing and sexual elements to Japanese manga even the stuff aimed for young girls and boys.

In this paper we present Gaussian processes for Regression (GPR) as a novel detector for CDMA digital communications. Particularly, we propose GPR for constructing analytical nonlinear multiuser detectors in CDMA communication systems. GPR can easily compute the parameters that describe its nonlinearities by maximum likelihood. Thereby, no cross-validation is needed, as it is typically used in nonlinear estimation procedures. The GPR solution is analytical, given its parameters, and it does not need to solve an optimization problem for building the nonlinear estimator. These properties provide fast and accurate learning, two major issues in digital communications. The GPR with a linear decision function can be understood as a regularized MMSE detector, in which the regularization parameter is optimally set. We also show the GPR receiver to be a straightforward nonlinear extension of the linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) criterion, widely used in the design of these receivers. We argue the benefits of this new approach in short codes CDMA systems where little information on the users' codes, users' amplitudes or the channel is available. The paper includes some experiments to show that GPR outperforms linear (MMSE) and nonlinear (SVM) state-ofthe- art solutions.

Christopher West
Christopher West (born 1969)[citation needed] is a Catholic author and speaker, best known for his work on Pope John Paul II's series of audience addresses entitled Theology of the Body.
West has been delivering lectures since 1997, mostly on topics such as Christian anthropology, the Creed, morality, sacraments, marriage, sexuality, and family life. He has also spoken on national radio and on television. He is one of the main educators in the Theology of the Body Institute, which offers graduate level courses and other training programs on the Theology of the Body.[1]
He and his wife, Wendy, reside in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (USA),[2] and have five children.
West graduated from Lancaster Catholic High School in 1988.[3] He received a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology in 1992 from the University of Maryland. In 1996 he was certified as an Instructor of Marriage Preparation from the Archdiocese of Washington, D.C. In 1997, he obtained a Master of Theological Studies at the Pontifical John Paul II Institute for Studies on Marriage and Family at The Catholic University of America,[4] and became a Certified Catechist by the Archdiocese of Denver Catechetical School.
Cecilia LeChevallier, Coordinator, Marriage Preparation and Natural Family Planning, Diocese of Camden, NJ commented that "Christopher West is able to synthesize the Theology of the Body in an understandable and exciting way that gets people excited about it and excited about living it."[5]
Charles J. Chaput, O.F.M. Cap. Archbishop of Philadelphia says that "Christopher West's keen grasp of John Paul II's Theology of the Body and his ability to make it accessible to others is changing lives, strengthening marriages, and renewing people's faith in the Church across the country and internationally."[5]
Theologian David L. Schindler charged that West promotes a "pansexualist tendency" that ties all important human and supernatural activity back to sex without making necessary distinctions.[6]
Moral theologian Dr. Janet Smith defended West, saying his work is "completely sound" and that she found Schindler's response "puzzling."[7] Smith, in her response to Schindler's critique, says that Schindler "provides a list of his objections to West's theology without citing one text to substantiate his charges...As it stands, I do not find that his concerns correspond with what I have read in West's work or heard in his lectures."
Dr. Alice von Hildebrand, widow of Catholic theologian Dietrich von Hildebrand, has said West's approach has become too self-assured. She criticized his presentations as irreverent and insensitive to the "tremendous dangers" of concupiscence.[8]
Theologian Michael Waldstein, who wrote the definitive translation of The Theology of the Body, addressed Schindler's remarks in an essay published on InsideCatholic.com.[9] Waldstein said that Schindler's essay was a "blanket negative statement" that made "sweeping accusations" against a position he did not recognize as West's.
Dawn Eden, author of the book The Thrill of the Chaste, published her examination of West's presentation of John Paul II's teachings in her master's thesis. Eden commends West's speaking and writing skills, but takes issue with some points of theology that West uses in his ministry.[10]
Justin Cardinal Rigali, Archbishop Emeritus of Philadelphia, and Kevin Rhoades, Bishop of Fort Wayne-South Bend, issued a joint statement in support of West's work.[11]
They said,
- "We are convinced that John Paul II's Theology of the Body is a treasure for the Church, indeed a gift of the Holy Spirit for our time. Yet, its scholarly language needs to be 'translated' into more accessible categories if the average person is to benefit from it. To do this is the specific mission of the Theology of the Body Institute, and we believe that Christopher West, the Institute's popular lecturer and spokesman, has been given a particular charism to carry out this mission. With great skill as a presenter, with keen insight as a thinker, and with profound reverence for the mystery of human sexuality, he has been able to reach thousands in our sexually wounded culture with the Gospel of salvation in Christ."
West also responded to many of the critiques, acknowledging that "so long as we are on earth, we will always have to battle with concupiscence" and conceding "In some of my earliest lectures and tapes, I confess that I did not emphasize this important point clearly enough."[12] However, he continues with the rhetorical question, taken from Veritatis Splendor 103, "Of which man are we speaking?"[12] and discusses the teaching of John Paul II[13] that "[Christ] has given us the possibility of realizing the entire truth of our being; he has set our freedom free from the domination of concupiscence."[14]
On January 31, 2012, West released a book entitled At the Heart of the Gospel: Reclaiming the Body for the New Evangelization. Christoph Cardinal Schönborn, Cardinal Archbishop Of Vienna; General Editor, Catechism of the Catholic Church and Grand Chancellor, International Theological Institute for Studies on Marriage and the Family, gave the following endorsement for the book:
- "The light of the Gospel, which is a clear but at times painful light, can illumine human sexuality to its very depth in order to transform it and bring it to its full beauty. Here lies the great strength of Blessed John Paul II's Theology of the Body. In this peaceful and positive response to critics, Christopher West proves once again that he is a faithful and inspiring interpreter and communicator of this great pope's teaching, a teaching so urgently needed for an effective proclamation of the Gospel."
In 2013, West released Fill These Hearts, which addresses the idea of Christianity as a repressive, anti-sex religion and presents that the restless yearnings felt in one's bodies and spirits are the cry of one's heart for God. The book's release was followed by a series of cultural events around the United States featuring West and musical act Mike Mangione and the Union that combined art, music and theological reflection. Colleen Carroll Campbell, author of My Sisters the Saints: A Spiritual Memoir, said Christopher West "is a gifted and effective evangelist with a passion for tackling one of the greatest obstacles to belief today: the heresy that Christianity is a joyless, rule-bound religion. Not so, argues West, in this timely, powerful book. Drawing upon Scripture, the saints and the glimmers of truth in pop culture, West reminds us that Christianity is essentially a love story, and Christian sexual ethics exist to help us fulfill, not repress, our deepest desires. For anyone who has ever doubted that Christ's call to purity of heart is good news, Fill These Hearts will prove a surprising and consoling read, one with the potential to change your life as well as your mind."
On April 15, 2015, West released his first eBook, Pope Francis to Go: Bite-Sized Morsels from The Joy of the Gospel. Using Pope Francis's apostolic exhortation The Joy of the Gospel, Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the writings of saints and other popes, and the lens of St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body, West presents 150 quotes from Pope Francis that map out the "Way of Beauty" that is at the heart of the New Evangelization.
"Thanks to Christopher West's new book, Pope Francis to Go, we can draw deeply from the well of the great heart of Pope Francis. Christopher's prayerful and powerful commentary on The Joy of the Gospel offers practical insights on not only how to share the good news, but more importantly, how to live it," said Jason Evert, author, speaker and cofounder of The Chastity Project.

5A high school football preview: Riverton at Bingham
Familiar foes facing off, this time in the playoffs
Matt Gade, Deseret News
SOUTH JORDAN — For the first time since Riverton opened its doors in 1999, it didn't play Bingham in the regular season, thanks to realignment. On Friday, the two will check off another never-have.
The Miners host the Silverwolves at 5 p.m. in the 5A quarterfinals in the first-ever postseason meeting. Bingham is 42-2 on its home turf since 2007, including 15 straight after losing to a Chase Hansen-led Lone Peak squad in 2011.
"It changes everything because the loser isn't playing anymore," Bingham coach Dave Peck said. "We've never played them being in that situation. We've played them and had region title on the line two or three times, but we've never played them in a situation of loser goes home. That alone makes it a whole lot different."
The proximity of the schools has created a rivalry atmosphere despite the relative lack of competition. Bingham has dominated the series between the two with an all-time 12-2 record. The Miners are currently riding a nine-game win streak with an average margin of defeat of 40-12.
"Overdog or underdog, it's just another opponent for us. We prepared this week the same way," Riverton coach Mike Miller said. "This is a competitive group; a real fun group to coach. I'm sure the players are talking amongst themselves. I don't live in the area; obviously I'd like to win because of everything that's at stake. I'd like to beat them, too."
For Peck, Riverton-week is always unsettling with his personal history and affiliations.
"I know that for our kids, and for me in particular — we lived in Riverton for 14 years, so I know a lot of people in the community," Peck said. "My O-coordinator, John Lambourne, lives about two blocks from the high school and his kids go to Riverton. So, whenever we play Riverton I'm always uptight playing that game. Our kids know it, too, and we always seem to play with an edge when we play Riverton."
If not for six points, it could be a matchup of two undefeated teams. The 'Wolves (8-2) employ a deceptive, Wing-T offense, and it's imperative that opposing defenses play disciplined, assignment-football. This might be the deepest backfield Riverton has had in years after running for 4,232 yards and 46 touchdowns with 26 different players recording at least one carry.
"We've played against them for all these years and they're usually going to get one or two big plays on us. It happens every year. They're going to pop somebody through and it's just so darn quick that you lose them. The next thing you know they're already by you," Peck explained after saying preparing for the Wing-T keeps him up at night. "Defensively we make it tough on them where they have to really work for what they get. We're not going to panic and pick up one or two touchdowns on us. We know they're very capable of doing that."
Peck highlighted his five linebackers that rotate freely throughout the game. Thus far, Nick Heninger, Daniel Langi, Vaka Vehikite, Skyler Olsen and Saia Saltiban have combined for 285 tackles, 13 sacks and five interceptions. If Riverton expects to experience the same success on the ground, its offensive line has to body up the second layer.
"I'm assuming they're going to try and load up the box and try to put as many people as they can up there to stop the run. Hopefully, if they're doing that, our play-action pass game is there," Miller said. "We feel like we're effective either way, and usually when people have brought people up we've thrown the ball over the top of them. I'd imagine that's what they'll do. They know what do and they keep doing it. They don't change up a whole lot or out-scheme. That's just not their way."

Arwa Damon
|This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification. (February 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|Arwa Damon
September 19, 1977
Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.
|Skidmore College
Arwa Damon (born September 19, 1977) is an Arab-American, CNN Senior International Correspondent, based in Istanbul. From 2003, she covered the Middle East as a freelance journalist, before joining CNN in 2006.
Early life[edit]
Born in Boston, Damon spent her early childhood years in Wayland, Massachusetts. Her father, Dr. George H. Damon, Jr, is an American and her mother, Joumana, is Syrian and grew up in Damascus.[1] Damon is the granddaughter of Muhsin al-Barazi, the former Syrian Kurd prime minister of Syria, who was executed in the August 1949 Syrian coup d'état.[2]
At age six, Damon and her family moved to Morocco, followed by Istanbul, Turkey three years later, where her father was a teacher and middle school director at Robert College. He went from there to Isıkkent School in Izmir, and was then headmaster of the American Community School at Beirut from 2003 until his retirement in 2013.[3]
Damon skipped sixth grade and graduated with honors from Robert College at the age of sixteen. She then spent a gap year with her aunt and uncle in Morocco, learning show jumping, before moving to the U.S. to attend Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York.[2][4] She graduated with honors in 1999 with a double major in French and biology and a minor in international affairs. She is fluent in Arabic, French, Turkish, and English, having grown up speaking all four languages.
Before becoming a reporter, Damon worked for a high-end New York–based Turkish textile company.
Damon decided to become a journalist after 9/11, moving to Baghdad prior to the beginning of the Iraq War.[2][5] She began her career at CameraPlanet, working to get correspondent Peter Arnett's team into pre-war Iraq. For three years, she covered the Middle East as a freelance producer working with CNN, PBS, Fox News and others, before joining CNN in February 2006.
Damon has covered many military and civil events during the invasion and occupation of Iraq. These include the United States Army's Battle of Najaf against the Mehdi Army and the battle to retake Samarra in 2004. She has also reported on the United States Marine Corps' offensive against insurgents in Fallujah and Operation Steel Curtain in Husaybah near the Syrian border.
Civil events Damon has covered include the Iraqi elections of January 2005, the constitutional referendum vote in October 2005, and the Iraqi election of December 2005. She also reported on the trial and executions of Saddam Hussein, Barzan Ibrahim Hassan al-Tikriti and Awad Hamed al-Bandar in January 2007.
Starting in December 2010, Damon covered the Arab Spring from Libya and Egypt. After the 2012 Benghazi attack, she was one of the early journalists to arrive at the scene and recovered slain Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens' personal diary.[2]
Damon won an Investigative Reporters and Editors' IRE Award for her reporting of the Consulate attack in Benghazi, along with fellow photojournalist Sarmad Qaseera.[6][7]
Damon was part of the CNN team who won the 2012 Emmy Award for Outstanding Live Coverage of a Current News Story – Long Form (Revolution in Egypt: President Mubarak Steps Down).[8][9] In 2014, she was awarded the Courage in Journalism Award given by the International Women's Media Foundation (IWMF).[10]
Incident at US Embassy Party[edit]
On July 19, 2014 Damon caused a disturbance at a party at the US Embassy in Baghdad. Damon was reportedly drunk, abusive, and disorderly, and required treatment from medics to calm her down. A few days later Damon sent an apologetic email to the embassy, explaining:"I had not had proper food all day and clearly miscalculated how my body would handle the alcohol consumed. Needless to say, I am utterly mortified and take full responsibility for my actions, which are inexcusable." Two medics who treated Damon on the night of the incident subsequently sued her for damages, alleging that she had bitten both of them during the struggle.[11]

We're blessed Bush leads us
Published: Monday, August 30, 2004 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, August 30, 2004 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: It's time people realize just what a fine president we have. Four years ago when Bush was elected, I believe God put him in there because it could have very easily went the other way.
We need a president who is against abortion and gay marriage. I shudder to think where our country would be today if Bush hadn't been elected.
I wonder if people have forgotten after Bush went in how the middle class received the tax cut and it didn't go to the rich like some have been told. I know because my son, my sister and I received checks.
About the war in Iraq. If we hadn't gone over there they would have come over here.
I hope and pray that you will make the right decision and vote for the one who is best to lead our country in these critical and evil times in which we are living.
As a Christian, I cannot vote for someone who is for everything God is against.
Betty Miller

Essay - The Psychology of 'Tom Thumb' the Famous Psychoanalyst Bruno Bettelheim...
The Psychology of "Tom Thumb"
***** famous psychoanalyst Bruno Bettelheim made a study of childhood f*****iry tales and found that they serve a profound purpose for children, helping them make sense of a world that does not always ***** sense to a child. As he s*****id,
There is a widespread refusal to let children know that she source ***** much ***** goes wrong in life is due ***** our very own natures -- the propensity of all men for acting aggressively, asocially, selfishly, out ***** anger and anxiety. Instead, we want our children to believe that, inherently, all ***** are good. But children know ***** they ***** not ***** good; and often, even when they are, they would prefer not to be. This contradicts what they ***** told by their parents, and therefore makes the child a monster in his own eyes." (*****, p. 7)
In his book The Uses of Enchantment, Bettelheim analyzes many common fairy tales, explaining how the stories meet the emotional and developmental needs of **********. He points ***** that through ***** fairy tale, otherwise life events children can***** underst***** *****come *****andable. And, since ***** take place in a fairly tale with magical elements, fanciful characters and impossible events, the ***** are comfort*****g instead of frightening. The children ***** ***** while some adults can be mean, uncaring and neglectful, a pumpkin ********** re*****y turn into ***** coach. Mice cannot really turn into beautiful horses. So, even as ***** child read about mean adults acting very badly toward *****, they ***** encouraged to recognize that the s*****ry is not true. That makes the story safe to read, unlike stories such as The Shining, where awful events are presented in as believable a way as possible.
While Bettelheim did not analyze ***** story of "Tom Thumb" in his book, he might have. He ***** have found a story ***** childhood empowerment ***** a family that discovers that all t***** money in the world can***** replace a loved one. However, if that were ***** ********** ***** to the story, "Tom Thumb" would be nothing more than a f*****ble ***** a moral lesson.
In the character of Tom Thumb we have an intelligent boy who is perceived as not capable of accompl*****hing useful things *****cause of his small size. It is a ***** of self-actualization, where the ***** believes in himself and then has multiple chances to demonstrate to his parents and to the world that size ***** not al*****s matter. In ***** story, the parents wish they had a child, *****nd the mother even says ***** she would welcome a child no matter what - even if he were no bigger than her thumb, ***** would love that child and raise him well. ***** a perverse twist of fate, when they do have a *****, the child is no bigger than her thumb. While he matures, he does *****t grow. In time, t***** father wishes he had some***** who could help him by driv*****g the cart while he cut

also since you answered my wishes for bringing this to the XBLA, now bring Jet Set Radio Future with a Multi-player tacked on, cause i think it'd work.
and after you answer that wish, please please please bring back Shenmue and Shenmue II, then please make the ENDING to the game which would be Shenmue III which COULD be a HUGE immersive world like the GTA Franchise, but they chose to not make it.

|Shenmue and Shenmue 2 were shallower than a puddle on a summers day. The combat was clunky (strange as its basically like VF) and the whole "FREE" thing was a gimmick, a fun one but a gimmick. There just wasnt enough to do and on top of that the writing and voice acting were god awful. Tom was especially terrible, just who was doing that Caribbean accent?
I loved the cut scenes though and the visuals were really good plus collecting capsule toys was great fun. 2 did improve alot on the first though i do admit.

|Let's not lose our heads here, Shenmue and it's sequel weren't without their flaws, and it was a bit of a marmite type of game anyway. Those who liked it ended up loving it, and those who it's charm didn't work on... Well, all they saw underneath it's impressive exterior was a boring prototype for the sandbox genre. Oh, and the game to blame for the oversaturation of QTEs.

|@45 - If you honestly believe Shenmue has no problems then more power to the super fan in you because it most certainly does. Up to you if you want to see them and i do believe you can be a fan of a game and see its flaws. Only blind "fanboys" and those who like to wear rose tinted glasses.

|@48 i just think the game was to hard for you that's why you say negative stuff about the game if there was something wrong with the game just saying you think they would give it a bad review?

Opinion Poll
KQV/Trib Total Media Listener Poll Do you agree with Pope Francis call for all nations to welcome refugees from war, hunger and persecution regardless of national or religious origin? <More Info>
Pope Francis, saddened by the slaying of an elderly priest during Mass in a church in the French countryside, warned Wednesday that the world is at war, but not among religions. Francis urged all nations to welcome refugees from war, hunger, and religious persecution and called for courage and compassion, as he starts his first trip to Eastern Europe where anti-migrant sentiments are rising, with many fearing Muslim refugees threatening their safety and national security.

I've been in the process of transfering my blogs from Moveable Type 4 (which is about as unfriendly an application that I've ever seen) to WordPress. So far, I've got some of my revamped blogs up and running but there are a few things I can't seem to find that will work with WordPress 2.3; these are:
1. A plugin that will allow my own reviews to books I've read. I would like for an image of the book to appear in the entry and would like that image to linked back to Amazon that also uses my Amazon Account ID.
2. A rating system that also appears on the the book's blog entry that resembles Amazon's star system. That rating should reflect my own review of the book.
3. Sidebar widget that display imaged of the books that are also listed on my LibraryThing Account.
4. A side bar widget that displays the book I'm currently reading.
I know that this type of plugin has been available for MT (at least in the past) but with each new version, the features get reduced. I would very much like to have plugins and/or widgets to do the same thing with WordPress 2.3.

Everything you need to know about finding, keeping, and training your very own pet train.
Finding advice on caring for a dog, a cat, a fish, even a dinosaur is easy. But what if somebody's taste in pets runs to the more mechanical kind? What about those who like cogs and gears more than feathers and fur? People who prefer the call of a train whistle to the squeal of a guinea pig? Or maybe dream of a smudge of soot on their cheek, not slobber? In this spectacularly illustrated picture book, kids who love locomotives (and what kid doesn t?) will discover where trains live, what they like to eat, and the best train tricks around everything it takes to lay the tracks for a long and happy friendship. All aboard
About the Author
Jason carter Eaton was born in several small towns throughout the United States and one in Ireland. He is the author of the picture book "The Day My Runny Nose Ran Away", which most children thought was a funny story, though it was actually a tragic autobiography. Jason also edited Professor P. S. Schackman's informative book "How to Keep Tuna Fish in Your Pocket for Weeks and Weeks Without it Going Bad". Jason currently lives in Sleepy Hollow, New York, with his beautiful wife, Lisa, their perfect son, Milo, and a giant Newfoundland mix, Pushkin. There's also a cat somewhere.
Rocco is a music journalist and editor of Dead Reckonings.
Praise For…
Juxtaposing sensible tips with the absurdity of a huge pet locomotive creates a text that is at once believable and preposterous. ... But what really makes this concept roar down the track are the entrancing digitally colored illustrations that perfectly capture the expressiveness and playfulness of the pet trains. ... [T]his book is sure to be popular with train and pet lovers alike.
—School Library Journal (starred review)
Train and pet enthusiasts alike will delight in this rollicking story about selecting, naming, soothing and caring for a full-sized locomotive. ... With believable expressiveness in the characterizations of the trains and a scale perfect for groups, this affectionate sendup communicates all the exasperation, responsibility and rewards of having a pet.
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Eaton's tongue-in-cheek—and eminently enjoyable text—is matched by Rocco's smooth and sleek artwork laced with whimsy.
—Booklist (starred review)
An immersive experience for junior rail fans.
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Eaton's fanciful, funny text is perfectly accompanied by John Rocco's energetic illustrations. ... This book is sure to be a huge hit with young railroad enthusiasts everywhere.
The conversational text is exploded by John Rocco's zany, digitally colored illustrations. Learn about how these mysterious beasts travel (freights move in herds, monorails alone) and what you need to trap them (big nets are good, quicksand works, but smoke signals are best). Eaton even explains how to soothe a jumpy engine: "Few trains can resist a read-aloud." Few kids, either -- especially when the subject is trains and the words go "Rocka-rocka, clickety-clack" down the track.
—The Washington Post
I saved my favorite for last. 'How to Train a Train' is exactly that: a guidebook that teaches children how to capture and tame wild trains. ... Jason Carter Eaton's deadpan prose is calibrated just-so. He wisely leaves the abundant belly laughs to John Rocco's paintings, which have their own zany style...
—The New York Times Book Review
