Sir Philip and Mary Sidney's Relationship
A lot of Mary's writing was inspired by her older brother Sir Philip Sidney. Being 7 years older, it is understandable that Mary looked up to Philip not only as a brother but as literary figure or example to follow. Many of her work are either the completion of his original work (such as the Arcadia or the Psalms) or it is about her brother (like the Doleful Lay of Clorinda). Of course being his younger sister she would always remain in the shadow of such a prominent literary figure as Philip, but within her prose a certain style can be seen and appreciated as her own individual voice.
Her relationship with her brother causes some speculation on how close they really were. Through her poems and writings to her brother one can see that she had great adoration and love for him. The question of how deep their love goes is not directly answered but alluded to in other texts. This subject matter is discussed more on another wikipage here and speculates on the "normal" relationship between siblings at this time period in contrast with Philip and Mary's relationship.
But because of Philip's fame, Mary is known today and a lot of information of her was better recorded due to being realated to Philip. Once he died it is harded to find as much information on her.
gggggggggggggggggggThe Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia and The Countess of Mountgomeries Urania
|The Muses Urania (with a Globe) and Calliope, c. 1634
Lady Mary Wroth was niece to Sir Phillip Sidney. Because of this, she spent the majority of her childhood at her uncle's Penhurst country house in Kent, England. Considered an epicenter for the derivation of influential 17th century literature, Penhurst offered renowned literary works such as Ben Jonson's To Penhurst. To Penhurst represents the distinction between public and counter-public; that is the distinction between court and pastoral. Arguably, To Penhurst dissents King James, and supporting this claim are Ben Jonson's masques which illustrate King James's elaborate nature and the lack of equality within a governing system. Unsurprisingly, the Jonsonian perspective may be found in Lady Mary Wroth's The Countess of Mountgomeries Urania. As Queen Elizabeth I was succeeded by King James I and Queen Anne of Denmark, Lady Wroth's dissent for Queen Anne and King James I is implied. Intrinsically, Sir Phillip Sidney's The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia advocates Queen Elizabeth I. Both Sir Phillip Sidney and Lady Mary Wroth however, utilize the depiction of Urania within their work.
The Doleful Lay of Clorinda: Mary Sidney Herbert's Eulogy for Philip Sidney
A "Lay" is usually songs of love or longing and mourning and often happy, while this one has a completely different tone. This poem was written for Sir Philip Sidney after his death in 1586. It expresses Mary's sorrow at losing her brother. Mary's relationship with her brother is somewhat revealed to us through this poem. She has great regard for him and looks up to him not only as an elder brother but as a superior artist and writer. She speaks of his death as a loss to everyone, especially in the literary world because no one can compare to his genius. Mary obviously had great respect for her brother and his writing which probably fueled her desire to finish his work such as the Arcadia. She refers to her brother as Astrophil, which confirms that these authors see themselves in their characters and use them to mirror their own lives.
Due to Mary's constant collaboration with and revision of Philip's work, the question of authorship arises frequently with her contributions. Here, with The Doleful Lay of Clorinda, there is again a questioning of authorship, but this time it is between Edmund Spenser and Mary. Numerous critiques of the poem have named either of these people as the writer, but today it is believed that it is Mary Sidney Herbert's. The speculations of the critics are interesting to note because they give insight into the credit that Mary was not given for her writing in days past versus the acclaim that she has met in recent times.
One of the themes we have noticed in Mary's writing style is the use of nature. Here she cries out to nature and mentions it throughout the poem. It is interesting how she uses a flower to describe Philip Sidney, which could go along with the idea of Philip being the sensitive gentle nerd type (as discussed in class). Also nature is used to echo her cry, as the poem repeats itself and echos back to her. This is further discussed below in the story of Echo.
The Doleful Lay of Clorinda
Ay me, to whom shall I my case complain,
That may compassion my impatient grief?
Or where shall I unfold my inward pain,
That my enriven heart may find relief?
Shall I unto the heavenly pow'rs its how,
Or unto earthly men that dwell below?
To heavens? Ah, they, alas, the authors were,
And workers of myunremedied woe:
For they foresee what to us happens here,
And they foresaw, yet suffered this be so.
From them comes good, from them comes also ill,
That which they made, who can them warn to spill.
To men? Ah, they alas, like wretched be,
And subjects to the heavens' ordinance:
Bound to abide wherever they decree.
Their best redress is their best suffereance.
How then can they, like wretched, comfort me,
The which no less need comforted to be?
Then to myself will I my sorrow mourn,
Sith none alive like sorrowful remains:
And to myself my plaints shall back return,
To pay their usury with doubled pains.
The woods, the hills, the rivers shall resound
The mournful accent of my sorrow's ground.
Woods, hills, and rivers now are desolate,
Sith he is gone the which them all did grace:
And all the fields do wail their widow state,
Sith death their fairest flow'r did late deface
The fairest flow'r in field that ever grew,
Was Astrophel; that was, we all may rue.
What cruel hand of cursed foe unknown,
Hath cropped, before it well were grown,
And clean defeaced in untimely hour.
Great loss to all that ever him did see,
Great loss to all, but greatest loss to me.
Break now your garlands, O ye shepherds' lasses,
Sith the fair flow'r, which them adorned, is gone:
The flow'r, which them adorned, is gone to ashes,
Never again let lass put garland on.
Instead of garland, wear sad cypress now,
And bitter elder, broken from the bough.
Ne ever sing the love-lays which he made:
Who ever made such lays of love as he?
Ne ever read the riddles, to make you merry glee.
Unto yourselves, to make you merry glee.
Your merry glee is now laid all abed,
Your merry maker now, alas, is dead.
Death, the devourer of all world's delight,
Hath robbed you and reft from me my jou:
Both you and me ane all the world he quite
Hath robbed of joyance, and left sad annoy.
Joy of the world, and shepherds' pride was he,
Shepards' hope never like again to see.
O Death, that hast us of such riches reft,,
Tell us at least, what hast thou with it done?
What is become of him whose flow'r here left
Is but the shadow of his likeness gone:
Sacrce like the shadow of that which he was,
Naught like, but that he like a shade did pass.
But that immortal spirit, which was decked
With all the dowries of celestial grace:
By sovereign choise from th'heavenly choirs select,
And lineally derived from angels' race,
Oh, what is now of it become, aread.
Ay me, can so divine a thing be dead?
Ah no: it is not dead, ne can it die,
But lives for aye, in blissful Paradise:
Where like a new-born babe it soft doth lie,
In bed of lilies wrapped in tender wise,
And compassed all about with roses sweet,
And dainty violets from head to feet.
There thousand birds all of celestial brood,
To him do sweetly carol day and night:
And with strange notes, of him well understood,
Lull him asleep in angel-like delight;
Whilst in sweet dream to him presented be
Immortal beauties, which no eye may see.
But he them sees and takes exceeding pleasure
Of their divine aspects, appearing plain,
And kindling love in him above all measure,
Sweet love still joyous, never feeling pain.
For what so goodly form he there doth see,
He may enjoy from jealous rancor free.
There liveth he in everlasting bliss,
Sweet spirit never fearing more to die:
Ne dreading harm from any foes of his,
Ne fearing savage beasts' more cruelty.
Whilst we here, wretches, wail his private lack,
And with vain vows do often call him back.
But live thou there still happy, spirit,
And give us leave thee here thus to lament:
Not thee that does thy heaven's joy inherit,
But our own selves that here in dole are drent.
Thus do we weep and wail, and wear our eyes,
Mourning in other's, our own miseries
Analyzing "The Doleful Lay of Clorinda"
Through an analysis of the poem, one can come to better understand the relationship between brother and sister and who Mary and Philip were through the eyes of Mary. Throughout the first stanza Mary sets down where her thoughts went upon her brother's death: can relief be found after his passing? And can this relief come from "heavenly pow'rs" or "earthly men"? (5-6). Mary goes on to question God. She scrutinizes the heavens and puts blame on them for Philip's death and for her grief. The heavens "the authors were,/ And workers of my unremedied woe:/ For they foresee what happens here,/ And they foresaw, yet suffered this be so" (7-10). This second stanza brings to question the of how Philip's death may have altered Mary's views on life and God. She also questions the human race, who she notes are on the same level of powerlessness as herself, all under the power of the heavens.
In stanza four Mary resigns herself to solitary mourning. In this and following stanzas Mary uses an echo as a device for both expressing a connection to nature and giving a sense as to how her sorrow will always return back to her. "And to myself my plaints shall back return," Mary wrote, "To pay their usury with doubled pains. The woods, the hills, the rivers shall resound/ The mournful accent of my sorrow's ground" (21-24). These lines depict how inescapable her mourning is. More repetition of this sort is seen in stanza six, of "Great loss to all" in lines 35-36, and in stanza 8, with the repetition of "Your merry" in lines 47-48.
The rest of the poem immortalizes Philip and his virtues. It is not just her loss, but a loss for the future of her family and the rest of the world. The world is described as desolate without him, from which we can draw that her life was desolate without him as well. That "the fields wail their widowed state" depicts brings to mind not only that mother nature is widowed by losing Philip, but also perhaps that Mary herself is widowed (27). Her brother, in her eyes, was the "fairest flow'r," Astrophel (28). That he is "cropped before it were well grown" emphasizes the high expectations that Mary had for her brother's abilities (32). His death means not only a personal grief, but a grief for the rest of the world in that he will no longer be able to contribute to the literary world. Mary takes up his reigns, completing and revising his psalms and Arcadia, but here expressing that he was the "fairest flow'r," the best writer, and gone too soon. Mary writes that the "cruel hand of cursed foe unknown/, Hath cropped the stalk which bore so fair a flow'r" in stanza six (31-32). These lines can also be interpreted as lamenting the fact that through the death of Philip the direct descendence ends (Double-check this).
The loss of Philip was a "Great loss to all that ever did see [him]/ Great loss to all, but greatest loss to me" (141). Stressing how close their relationship was, Mary assumes that her loss is the greatest felt, more even than the loss that his wife way have felt at his passing. She goes on to describe the mourning that she expects of the world at having lost Philip and in stanza eight describes some of his contributions to the world, and in so doing describes who he was as a person. Noting his "love-lays" and "riddles" she writes that "he said/ Unto yourselves, to make you merry glee" (43,45-46). He wrote to bring people happiness. With his death comes an end to "merry glee" (47).
Speaking of death in the following two stanzas, Mary questions where talent goes when an artist dies. Addressing death, she asks of the joy that death took from her and the world, wondering "what hast thou done with it?" (56). This is an interesting question given that Mary and so many other relatives went on to use their own talents, all spurred by the death of Philip. Philip's works are left behind, but they are "but the shadow of his likeness gone" (58).
Despite Mary's questioning of divinity earlier in the poem, in stanza eleven she introduces a relationship between her brother and the heavens. Philip is "By sovereign choice from th'heavenly choirs select,/ And ,lineally derived from angels' race," so his "immortal spirit" is in heaven and "so divine a thing" cannot be dead (63-64, 61, 66). She imagines a beautiful heaven for him, taking an optimistic turn from the sorrow that she expressed in the first half of the poem. Philip is now somewhere where there is "Sweet love still joyous, never feeling pain" (82). After his failed engagement to Penelope and being exiled by the Queen Philip reacted in his writings, with varying degrees of sadness and anger. In death, Mary portrays him as escaping this pain, and perhaps the pain of his death. The lines following this description suggest that the effect that the Queen, and perhaps Penelope, was escaped by Philip once he was in heaven. "For what so goodly form he there doth see,/ He may enjoy from jealous rancor free" (83-84). The envy that he felt towards Lord Rich and towards the court that remained with the Queen during Philip's exile ends with his death. In death he is "never fearing more to die:/ ne dreading harm from any foes of his,/ Ne… more cruelty" (86-88). Despite imagining that Philip is now in such a good place away from the negativity of his life, she reiterates in this second to last stanza that she still mourns him and wishes that he was alive. The "heaven's joy" that Philip gains does not keep "our own selves" from pain (93-94).
In conclusion, "The Doleful Lay of Clorinda" expresses many telling things about the Sidney's. It discusses the close relationships between the siblings, indicating why Mary looked up to Philip and why she may have gone on to complete the works that his talents started. It questions divinity, but in the end returns to trusting in it. It hints at Mary's awareness of how Penelope and Queen Elizabeth damaged Philip and her gratefulness that he is now free from these women. Mary's use of nature is shown here in a way that resonates in her other works. The use of the echo in this poem is significant not only for its showing that mythological allusions are as important to her writings as they were to Philip, but because this echo that rebounds her sorrows back to her is much like the echo that she is of her brother.
|Echo and Narcissus
The Countess of Pembroke's ArcadiaThe Arcadia of The Countess of Pembroke's Arcadia is continually referred to as being "Sidney's Arcadia," as seen in the titles of many critiques written on the book. Though Philip Sidney created this world and peopled it, another Sidney, Mary Sidney Herbert, also had a large part in creating it. According to Maurice Evans, Sir Philip Sidney's The Countess of Permbroke's Arcadia was began "as early as 1577," yet Philip's sister, the Countess of the tome's title, released a final version of the story in 1593 (10,12). Mary not only revised Philip's work, but created something of her own within it.

|European Commission > ... > Geothermal energy > Geothermal Projects in FP6
|Contact | Search
R&D Activities receiving support from the European Commission can be divided into short to medium-term and medium to long-term, and are managed by DG TREN and DG RTD respectively. The following medium-to-long term geothermal projects are currently ongoing in the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6):
Ongoing geothermal Projects in FP6
The project forms part of the ongoing Hot-Dry-Rock or Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) experiment at Soultz-sous-Forêts, France. The objective of this experiment project is the technical and economic design of large industrial units (> 25 MWe), based on multi-well systems. The specific objective of the phase proposed here is to test, evaluate and (if necessary) improve the properties of the three deep wells system of reservoirs / heat exchangers (depth 5000 m, bottom hole temperature > 200ºC) that has been achieved in previous phases. To ensure realistic operational conditions, a 1.5 MWe power plant will be installed at an early stage and operated from the produced fluid. Later in the test schedule, this plant will be extended to some 5‑6 MWe.
The project aims at developing an innovative geothermal exploration approach based on advanced geophysical (seismic and magnetotelluric) methods. The objective is to improve the detection, prior to drilling, of fluid bearing zones in naturally and/or artificially fractured geothermal reservoirs. This new approach will be tested in four European geothermal systems with different geological and thermodynamic reservoir characteristics: two high enthalpy (metamorphic and volcanic rocks), one middle enthalpy geothermal system (deep sedimentary rocks), and one low enthalpy geothermal system (shallow sedimentary rocks).
The main objective of the ENGINE project is the co-ordination of ongoing research and development initiatives for Enhanced Geothermal Systems and other Unconventional Geothermal Resources, from resource investigation and assessment stage through to exploitation monitoring. The links established between research and development teams, national development programmes, industrial partners and international agencies will be used to promote geothermal energy as a major renewable and sustainable source of energy and to propose innovative high-level medium- to longer-term research projects.

4. Cole Hamels (SP/Philadelphia Phillies)
Philadelphia Phillies
Why you should hate him:
Hamels is the typical good-looking, everything-comes-easy, cocky California guy who is constantly speaking his mind. Besides the fact that he can polish a NLCS MVP trophy, a World Series Championship ring and a World Series MVP trophy, he can also brag about his trophy wife, former Survivor contestant Heidi Strobel. Not to mention the way he eggs on those poor Mets, calling them "choke artists" in the media at any chance that arises. He is already a legend in Philly. Fans even started a Chuck Norris-esqe website dedicated to Hamels that lists all of his facts. Fact: Instead of JIF, choosy moms choose Cole Hamels. (OK, that is kind of funny.)

Hi all i am very new to wordpress and wondered if i can have the pages that generate my main nav using blix be able to link to an outside link?
Hi all i am very new to wordpress and wondered if i can have the pages that generate my main nav using blix be able to link to an outside link?
I'm not clear on what you're wanting to do. You want to make the "Page" links go to an external source rather than a page? If so, you're probably better off using the "Links" section of the sidebar for that. Of course, you could make a page with the external link on it, perhaps adding something to the page that describes what the source you're pointing to is all about.
erm yeah, sorry for my english, i was aweful tired. Yes that's exactly what i was looking for. However i donot want to use the sidebar as it's more of a main nav thing.
I'm trying to link to my shop located on another site. :/
Why don't you create one page devoted to your other site. Add a description and web address and any other info you desire.
I got it all sorted. :) I modded the header.php file and added the link to the nav that way. :)
Hey everyone,
I'm new to WordPress and I was wondering if someone can provide me with a quick tutorial in how to designate an external link to a page created within the Blix template.
I see that each page created is designated a specific ID. For example, I want my Photography link on the top navigation, for when you click it, it will automatically take you to my photo page, rather than provide an external link within the page itself. Does that sound confusing?
I would appreciate any feedback. Is this even possible? Does the answer reside in the header.php?
jorgeq, external links, that is links to non-WordPress elements on a site, would have to be "designated" in a theme's templates, and by that I mean you have to edit the template where you want the link displayed and add the HTML anchor tag and link text for it.
I'm not so sure if I understand. For example, I want to change the anchor on the Photography button itself. I went to the header.php and not all the Links on the top navigation are present. Only the default ones that is, but not the addition pages that I created.
Kaf - that's no longer quite true.
With my new CG-Redirect plugin from the plugins contest, you can stick a one-line tag into the body of a Page, and whenever a user loads that page it redirects to another url (could be local, could be elsewhere). It's great for redirects to a shop, gallery, forum, etc., if you want it to be 'stored' within a Page structure.
I developed CG-Redirect as I'm working on a 'PagesOnly' theme and plugin, that allows for rapid page-only site creation based on WP, and saw Redirect as a way to have Pages listed that jumped to non-WP code easily.
If people want to try it out, it's available from my wordpress plugins contest page on CHAITGEAR, or from the wp plugins contest site itself.
"Kaf - that's no longer quite true."
If I knew everything, I wouldn't be here... Thanks for the correction David, and the plugin.
You are the man! Thank you so much! Your plugin worked great. I simply added the code into the page itself and it took me where I wanted it to go.
Kaf - no offense intended! ;)
jorgeq - glad it worked for you right off the bat.
David, I just installed the CG redirect on my blog (bakingandbooks.com) but when you click on the "store" link instead of redirecting to the store it gives me an "OK" page with a link to the store. Is there anyway to just automatically send someone to the store? Thanks!
Nevermind, I just edited the header file instead, fixed the problem that way! :)

Routing Approaches in Delay Tolerant Networks: A Survey
Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have evolved from Mobile Ad Hoc NETworks (MANET). It is a network, where contemporaneous connectivity among all nodes doesn't exist. This leads to the problem of how to route a packet from one node to another, in such a network. This problem becomes more complex, when the node mobility also is considered. The researchers have attempted to address this issue for over a decade. They have found that communication is possible in such a challenged network. The design of routing protocol for such networks is an important issue. This paper surveys the literature and classifies the various routing approaches.

Hunger Hormones continued...
Why? Because insufficient sleep impacts your hunger and fullness hormones, including two called ghrelin and leptin.
Ghrelin signals your brain that it's time to eat. When you're sleep-deprived, your body makes more ghrelin.
Leptin, on the other hand, cues your brain to put the fork down. When you're not getting enough sleep, leptin levels plummet, signaling your brain to eat more food.
Put the two together, and it's no wonder sleep deprivation leads to overeating and extra pounds.
Then there's the cortisol spike that comes from too little sleep. This stress hormone signals your body to conserve energy to fuel your waking hours.
Translation: You're more apt to hang on to fat.
Researchers found that when dieters cut back on sleep over a 14-day period, the amount of weight they lost from fat dropped by 55%, even though their calories stayed equal. They felt hungrier and less satisfied after meals, and their energy was zapped.
Sleep deprivation makes you "metabolically groggy," University of Chicago researchers say. Within just 4 days of insufficient ZZZs, your body's ability to process insulin -- a hormone needed to change sugar, starches, and other food into energy -- goes awry. Insulin sensitivity, the researchers found, dropped by more than 30%.
Here's why that's bad: When your body doesn't respond properly to insulin, your body has trouble processing fats from your bloodstream, so it ends up storing them as fat.
So it's not so much that if you sleep, you'll lose weight, but that too little sleep hampers your metabolism and contributes to weight gain.
Tricks and Tips for a Better Night's Sleep
In today's world, snoozing can be difficult, particularly when all your screens (computers, TVs, cell phones, tablets) lure you into staying up just a little longer.
The basics are pretty simple:
- Shut down your computer, cell phone, and TV at least an hour before you hit the sack.
- Save your bedroom for sleep and sex. Think relaxation and release, rather than work or entertainment.
- Create a bedtime ritual. It's not the time to tackle big issues. Instead, take a warm bath, meditate, or read.
- Stick to a schedule, waking up and retiring at the same times every day, even on weekends.
- Watch what and when you eat. Avoid eating heavy meals and alcohol close to bedtime, which may cause heartburn and make it hard to fall asleep. And steer clear of soda, tea, coffee, and chocolate after 2 p.m. Caffeine stays in your system for 5 to 6 hours.
- Turn out the lights. Darkness cues your body to release the natural sleep hormone melatonin, while light suppresses it.

Chris Cooley posted a picture of his genitals on his website.
Writing and journalism professors always preach that the first line of any story or article should catch the reader's attention. How did that one work for you?
Washington Redskins tight end Chris Cooley has released a public apology for a little SNAFU that happened during the innocent task of trying to serve Redskins' fans more than they are used to: their playbook. It just so happened to come with a side of genitals.
According to Cooley, he had wanted to show the readers of his blog some of the study materials and plays that are given to players by Coach Jim Zorn.
It is no shock to football fans that players are more than just meatheads that are told simple one word commands like: catch, hit, and run. Players need to study. Some players like to study poolside, others perhaps in a group. Cooley happens to like to study in the nude.
And, as it often does, inspiration struck while Cooley was as naked as the day he was born, looking down at his naked lap, "I gotta take a picture of this and post it on the internet."
That's not to say that pictures of genitals is a new idea for the internet, but most sites require viewers to pay to see the bits and pieces of athletes and celebrities.
Cooley removed the photo as soon as the error was noticed and released the statement that posting the picture was "by no means our intention and we did not want to offend anyone. The picture wouldn't have been up for so long, but we were in the middle of winning a big game. Once again, this was a complete accident and we regret not reviewing the post more closely. Thanks."
Both pre- and post-edit pictures can be seen here. Don't worry kids, Cooley's helmet is covered and it just illustrates exactly what bloggers saw that fated day.

Johnson named top small businessmanApril 19,2013
CRAFTSBURY The federal Small Business Administration has named the owner of Petes Greens, an organic vegetable farm in Craftsbury, Vermonts small businessman of the year.
Pete Johnson said he is honored that the SBA considered an organic farm to be a worthy recipient of the award.
Petes Greens employs 14 people full time and has 400 to 500 members in its community supported agriculture program, in which members pay up front for food grown or produced on the farm or by other farms.
The farm also sells to grocery stores and restaurants and at the Montpelier farmers market.

Pirates Steer Hijacked Tanker to Somali Coast
NAIROBI, Kenya -- A crude-oil tanker hijacked on Sunday in the Indian Ocean was bound for a pirate stronghold on the Somali coast Monday, according to European Union's antipiracy taskforce, raising new concerns about the impact that pirates' expanded capability could have on the global oil market.
More on the Middle East
The Maran Centaurus, a Greek-owned tanker, was carrying roughly 93.5 million gallons of crude, worth about $175 million from Saudi Arabia bound for New Orleans, La., a major U.S. oil import area. The taskforce said it expected the hijackers to contact the ship's owner when it arrived in the so-called pirate town to demand a ransom.
"That's what we've seen with the other ships," said spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Daniel Auwermann. Until then, there is little to do but wait, he said. There are 28 crew members on board, according to the taskforce.
Last November, a Saudi tanker hauling two million barrels of oil was hijacked by pirates in the same region. The Sirius Star was held for two months before it was released, reportedly for a $3 million ransom.
The latest hijacking registered little impact on crude prices Monday, with oil inventory globally standing at a multiyear high at onshore storage facilities and offshore tankers. But some analysts warned the trend of tanker hijackings has longer-term implications for the world oil market. Despite the heightened risk of pirate attacks, tankers carrying crude oil and other petroleum products still sail these waters to take advantage of the Suez Canal, which offers a quick route to U.S. and European markets.
An effort by international navies to patrol the busy shipping lane in the Gulf of Aden has reduced attacks in that narrow channel. But pirates have begun to move elsewhere, attacking further down the East African coast, near Seychelles. The Maran Centaurus was captured about 700 miles northeast of that island nation, according to the EU taskforce.
"We are seeing pirates move farther out to sea in an effort to be where coalition vessels are not," said Lt. Matt Allen, a spokesman for the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet. The U.S. Fifth Fleet, which is based in Bahrain and helps patrol a large swath of ocean that include the Gulf of Aden, estimates that almost 190 pirate attacks have occurred so far this year around the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Gulf, up a little more than 50% from all of last year.
Pirates have successfully hijacked ships in about 40 of those incidents this year, although Lt. Allen noted that the percentage of successful hijackings is still lower relative to last year.
"[The issue] adds another geopolitical 'hot potato' which could see the financial community go bullish on oil once again" further down the road, said oil analyst Richard Gorry of JBC Energy in Vienna.
The heightened risk has been a boon to insurance providers willing to cover ships passing through the Gulf of Aden and along the east coast of Africa.
William Miller, a risk executive at Willis Group, a global insurance broker, said the number of insurance providers has roughly doubled, to around 10, in the past 18 months. That has helped bring insurance costs down for ship operators though demand for coverage remains brisk, he said. A typical ship journeying through the Gulf of Aden might cost today around $20,000 to insure, compared to as much as $35,000 last year, he said.
But insurers have gotten pickier about which routes they will cover, imposing "exclusion zones," or regions they won't provide coverage for, such as the waters off the Somali coast.
Crude oil fell about 10 cents to $75.96 a barrel in New York Monday, following a sharp selloff Friday on fears about the fallout from Dubai's financial woes.
A man who identified himself as a pirate commander named Farah Yusuf in Hobyo, a Somali pirate town, said the crew of the Maran Centaurus had tried to resist, but that the pirates had fired in the air, boarded the ship and overpowered them. Other details that he offered when reached by phone from Mogadishu corresponded to those reported by the EU taskforce. "We will dock [the ship] in Hobyo," said Mr. Yusuf said.
Pirates currently are holding 11 ships and 264 hostages, according to the EU's taskforce.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- A San Francisco restaurant chain has agreed to spend $320,000 to settle a complaint alleging it collected a surcharge from customers for the city's health care law but did not use most of the money for its intended purpose, officials said.
Patxi's Chicago Pizza agreed to the settlement after an investigation by the San Francisco city attorney's office and the Office of Labor Standards Enforcement, City Attorney Dennis Herrera said Sunday.
The investigation found that from 2009 to 2011, the chain added a 4 percent "Healthy San Francisco" surcharge to customers' bills at its San Francisco locations. But the bulk of the money didn't go toward Healthy San Francisco, the city's universal health care program, Herrera said.
The program was created in 2006 to provide health care for residents who lack private insurance but are not eligible for Medicare or Medi-Cal. Businesses with at least 20 workers that do not provide health care must give part of each employee's wages to the city as a fee to help pay for the $200 million program.
As part of the settlement, Patxi's will distribute about $205,000 among 115 current and former employees, Herrera said. The chain also will increase its health care spending by about $100,000 for 2013 and will pay $15,000 in penalties to the city.
"When we discovered that our health care plan did not comply with the San Francisco law and that we were collecting more in surcharges than we were paying for employee health care, we knew we needed to take immediate steps to make things right," Patxi's chief executive officer, William Freeman, said in a statement.
"Every dollar we collected from the surcharge has or will be spent on our employees' health benefits," Freeman said.
The settlement comes after an Associated Press report in September found that restaurants and other businesses in San Francisco collected almost $14 million in extra fees in 2011 from their patrons, but that roughly 40 percent of that money hadn't been spent on their workers' health care.
The surcharges, which range from 3 to 5 percent and often appear in fine print on receipts, are one result of San Francisco's health care program, which includes some of the most far-reaching such requirements mandated by any U.S. city.
The law applies to more than 4,000 businesses with as few as 20 part-time workers, from nail salons to international banks with local branches, requiring them to set aside for workers an extra $1 to $3 an hour for health care.
The city's mandate is unrelated to the federal health care law that takes effect in 2014 and applies only to companies with 50 or more employees.

Tasting Notes
A rich, full citrus liqueur with a hint of rum and a perfect balance of fruity sweetness and a dry and firm finish. The main ingredient being the peel of the Curatao orange, this liqueur acquires a dark orange colour and an inimitable flavour through the addition of a carefully selected blend of bitters.
ColourThe colour suggests a bright full-bodied liqueur, rich and full of flavour.AromaA full citrus flavour with a hint of light rum.FlavourA fine citrus on the palate, balanced by fruity sweetness for a dry and firm finish.
Technical Notes
Bols Dry Orange is a deep bronze colour, verging towards red, and is fairly light in the glass compared to some which were rather thick and viscous. Unusually it contains rum, albeit as a flavour component rather than the base as with the Santa Teresa and Clément liqueurs. This shows up fairly heavily on the nose with a strong white rum smell, along with some mild citrus and orange zest notes.

Get Ready For ReaganBook: The 'Facebook For Patriots'
Last weekend, the Ohio Liberty Coalition hosted a "Reload 4 Liberty" event at which Janet Porter spoke about her never-ending push to get her anti-choice "Heartbeat Bill" legislation passed in Ohio. But apparently that is not all that Porter is up to these days, as she also revealed to the audience that she'll soon be unveiling something called ReaganBook, which aims to become "the Facebook for patriots."
Because Facebook is run by the sorts of people who march in gay pride parades and supposedly censors messages from anti-gay activists like Peter LaBarbera, Porter explained that she decided to launch ReaganBook as a conservative alternative.
"We're tearing down walls, get it?" she said. "We're tearing down walls of tyranny, or censorship":
And indeed, ReaganBook is an actual thing ... and though, as of this posting, it currently only has thirty-one members, including Janet Porter, we are sure that once it is officially announced, it'll sweep the nation!
UPDATE: ReaganBook was temporarily shut down after it was bombarded with membership requests from "those intent on the destruction of life, liberty, and the family," reports the Daily Beast:
The site administrators effectively pulled the plug on ReaganBook less than 24 hours after its launch.
"Thank you to all those who participated in the pre-release of ReaganBook.com," a message credited to "Management" said on the site late Wednesday afternoon. "Your participation is helping us build a more secure site. Thank you! Please be patient while we make the necessary changes to keep the site free from obscenity, pornography, and those intent on the destruction of life, liberty, and the family. We will be opening the doors again soon with additional protections in place. As Reagan taught us, trust, but verify."

Two 14-year-old girls were so drunk when they were found in a
Kaitaia street they vomited after being placed in police
cells to the point of almost choking.
An ambulance was called, police fearing that they were
suffering alcohol poisoning, and they were taken to Kaitaia
Hospital for treatment before being released to their parents
on Tuesday.
The two girls, both from Kaitaia, and a 16-year-old from
Auckland, had reportedly been drinking at the address of a
19-year-old Kaitaia woman after attending a sitting of the
Youth Court earlier in the day.
They were drunk when they arrived at the address, a police
spokesman said, but continued drinking there.
When police found them a little after 2pm, one of the
14-year-olds was having difficulty standing, while the other
was being supported by the older pair.
One of the 14-year-olds was arrested on an historic assault
matter, but when police attempted to take the other
14-year-old home, the older teenagers intervened. Both were
pepper sprayed.
All three younger girls were subsequently released with
pre-charge warnings for disorderly behaviour, while the
19-year-old will appear in the Kaitaia District Court
tomorrow charged with obstructing and assaulting police.
It was not clear yesterday whether inquiries would be made
into who supplied the juveniles with alcohol.

Safe Outdoor Environments for Cats
In this article
Hey, Fence Me In!
Since outdoor enclosures can be homemade or commercially constructed, they come in all shapes and sizes. For durability, chain link, chicken wire or wire mesh hardware cloth-secured around a simple wood frame-is preferable to ordinary window screening. Roofing is a necessity since cats are exceptional climbers. The most successful structures include furniture for resting and climbing inside. A shaded area complete with a water bowl is required for warm or hot weather usage.
Whether you choose an outdoor enclosure or add cat-proof netting to the top of traditional fencing, remember that they are best used only when you are at home and outdoors with your cats or able to check on them often. Pet theft only takes a few moments. Don't forget, a microchip, tattoo or ID tag is the very thing to reunite you and your family feline if all precautions fail.

By Staff Sgt. Cody HardingApril 16, 2012
YONGSAN GARRISON, Republic of Korea -- Though the issue is not just in South Korea, spouses across the Army can often find themselves in a difficult situation when it comes to finding employment, especially overseas. Jobs can be scarce leaving a spouse few or no options when they decide to help supplement their Family's income.
This is where Frank Jackson, and his work with the Military Spouse Employment Partnership Program come in. MSEP, which is a Department of Defense wide initiative to help spouses find jobs on the economy, has grown from smaller unit initiatives to a Military-wide program under the direction of Army Community Service.
MSEP works through a national database of employers, who sign with MSEP to offer jobs to the Community by matching spouses with their knowledge and skillsets. Over 90 employers have signed up with the initiative.
Jackson, who helped host the Senior Spouse Employment Forum on Yongsan Garrison, said that the changes will help the Community find jobs, which gives him satisfaction.
"This is pretty cool for me because this is what I like to do," Jackson said. "With this program coming online, it's going to make my job easier, and make a lot of people walk out of my office with a big smile on their face."
One of the larger topics discussed was how the MSEP and the companies involved would work with 'out of office' employment, allowing spouses to work from home. One of the major advantages, Jackson said, was that it allowed spouses to grow with the company, giving them a chance to make lasting connections with an employer of choice.
Another advantage would be the fact that frequent moves, which is a fact in today's Army, would affect a business less, allowing spouses to take their work with them as they changed duty stations, or find new jobs at local affiliates where their expertise can aid the Community.

I am a recent graduate from University of Louisville and I will be starting a Masters Degree program at Coastal Carolina in the fall. My preference would be to NOT stay on campus housing.
I live a relatively quiet life. I keep my clutter confined to my room and despise having dirty dishes and an unclean bathroom.
I'm looking for someone (male or female) that would be interested in sharing an apartment in order to cut down on some of the costs of rent. I would need you to either already have an apartment with a room available for rent or assist you from Louisville in picking out an apartment.
I hold an assistantship at CCU, so paying for rent will never be an issue.

* AwardSnub: The film did not get a Best Picture nomination.
* CounterpartComparison:
** In an interesting way, Doug can be seen as a much darker take on Neil [=McCauley=] from ''Film/{{Heat}}''. It's lampshaded in the Extended Cut where Doug is seen watching ''Heat'' in his apartment at one point. Both men are the true main characters and career criminals who rob banks. But after they plan to retire from their criminal life, both also plan to flee the cities they're living in with the woman they encounter in their lives.
** Claire and Eady. Both women are lovers to the criminal protagonists. But after finding out that the men they fell in love with happens to be living a criminal life, both [[spoiler:were forced to leave them when they're on the verge of being caught by the police.]]
* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: Given the gritty nature of the film, it can be hard to root for any of the characters in the cast, up to and including Doug himself.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Creator/JeremyRenner as Jem got the most praise for acting and the film's only Academy Award nomination, as well as the character himself.
%%HarsherInHindsight isn't just "The actor dies after his character". It's only this trope if the death had some link to how it appeared on screen.
* HeReallyCanAct: Creator/BenAffleck restored faith in his acting abilities and Creator/BlakeLively proved there is more to her than Serena van der Woodsen. Everyone knew Jon Hamm could already act but this showed he could go all the way.
* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: You know [[BigBad Fergie]] is a goner when he tells Doug that he hooked his mother on coke and indirectly caused her suicide.]]
* {{Narm}}: [[spoiler:The look of humiliated horror on Fergie's face when he realizes that he's about to get his crotch shot off by Doug at the end.]]
* OneSceneWonder: Chris Cooper as Doug's father, Stephen [=MacRay=]. Also, Creator/PetePostlethwaite is on screen for hardly more than 5 minutes, but makes the most of every moment in an intense, genuinely frightening performance as Fergie the Florist.
* SpecialEffectsFailure: At least twice during the North End police chase, you can see ramps in the gutters near street corners that are meant to allow the stunt drivers to clip the curbs without damaging their vehicles.

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, N.J. (January 25, 2013)-- Superstorm Sandy has landed another stunning blow to New Jersey residents, as the state adopted rebuilding guidelines that will force homeowners in flood zones to spend tens of thousands of dollars to raise their houses or pay exorbitant premiums of up to $31,000 a year for flood insurance.
Gov. Chris Christie said he adopted flood maps issued late last year by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as New Jersey's standard for rebuilding from the worst storm in its history.
The storm destroyed more than 30,000 homes, caused $37 billion in damage and is still keeping 41,000 people out of their damaged homes.
Christie said there are "very few places" where New Jersey residents won't be able to rebuild if the higher buildings standards are used.

Mentorship is perceived to play a significant role in the career development and productivity of academic clinicians, but little is known about the characteristics of mentorship. This knowledge would be useful for those developing mentorship programs.
To complete a systematic review of the qualitative literature to explore and summarize the development, perceptions and experiences of the mentoring relationship in academic medicine.
Medline, PsycINFO, ERIC, Scopus and Current Contents databases from the earliest available date to December 2008.
We included studies that used qualitative research methodology to explore the meaning and characteristics of mentoring in academic medicine. Two investigators independently assessed articles for relevance and study quality, and extracted data using standardized forms. No restrictions were placed on the language of articles.
A total of 8,487 citations were identified, 114 full text articles were assessed, and 9 articles were selected for review. All studies were conducted in North America, and most focused on the initiation and cultivation phases of the mentoring relationship. Mentoring was described as a complex relationship based on mutual interests, both professional and personal. Mentees should take an active role in the formation and development of mentoring relationships. Good mentors should be sincere in their dealings with mentees, be able to listen actively and understand mentees' needs, and have a well-established position within the academic community. Some of the mentoring functions aim at the mentees' academic growth and others at personal growth. Barriers to mentoring and dysfunctional mentoring can be related to personal factors, relational difficulties and structural/institutional barriers.
Successful mentoring requires commitment and interpersonal skills of the mentor and mentee, but also a facilitating environment at academic medicine's institutions.

Former Giant Barber Plans to Return to NFL
Four years on the sidelines was enough: Tiki Barber wants back on the football field. It just won't be with the Giants.
The agent for the Giants' all-time leading rusher confirmed Tuesday that Barber had filed papers with the NFL and the Giants requesting that he be taken off the reserve-retirement list. The Giants in turn released a statement wishing Barber well and saying they will release the back as soon as they are allowed.
"We are optimistic there will be teams interested in Tiki,'' Mark Lepselter, Barber's agent, said.
It's been four years since Barber played his last game, and it's one month until his 36th birthday. He has worked in broadcasting for NBC and more recently for Yahoo. One month ago at the Super Bowl in Dallas, Barber described himself as a journalist, telling the Wall Street Journal that he didn't miss football at all, that "my mind has flipped."
Since then, Lepselter said, "Tiki was intrigued by certain things." Trainer Joe Carini, who worked with Barber from 2004-2006 said he began seriously working out two weeks ago. Carini said Barber is 198 pounds, 10 shy of his playing weight, and that he believes Barber could be NFL-ready in "a couple weeks."
Barber was certainly still in NFL shape when he retired, closing his final season with 1,662 yards. His 15,632 yards from scrimmage rank 12th all-time and he holds the Giants' all-time rushing marks with 10,499 yards and 55 touchdowns.
Barber announced his retirement in the middle of the 2006 season. From the broadcast booth, he has been critical of quarterback Eli Manning and coach Tom Coughlin and was roundly booed at the ceremony inducting him into Giants' Ring of Honor this past season.
Barber himself could not be reached for comment, but Lepselter said his client's motivation is only personal competitiveness to return to the NFL.

Sorry but, until they come up!
As the whole scheme is a non-starter, Dove, do you think we are being wound up??
Tie the branches to bricks??
You can't stop them falling. If they are fertilized they will stay on the plant and grow to be cherries.
Better find out how much area they need before you go any further. Remember you will also need winter forage. With that small area you will have to buy it in. Do you know where, and how much it will cost?
With an area that small, I would stick to chickens.
What is the name of the seed company? Some have very low germination rates, even though they have to reach a Statutory Minimum.
Goats are browsers and certainly do not feed exclusively on grass. And certainly not long grass!
Like everything else worms have a life cycle, and you have to worm the goats regularly to break that cycle.
If you want to keep livestock like goats or pigs or even chickens you should talk to an experienced person before you embark on the enterprise. Keeping animals is a serious thing, you have to be there for them every day.
They have to be kept under cover, such as in a shed. Do not leave them on the ground.
What do you mean by 'bolted'? Do you just mean they have started to grow? Or do you mean they have flowered already in the paper bags?
The advice is good. Plant them!

It is often said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, however many people dismiss this as simply a myth and compensate for not eating breakfast by having a cup of coffee once they arrive at work.
Although the importance of breakfast is often greeted with scepticism, many studies suggest that in actual fact breakfast is the most important meal and can help set the tone for the rest of your day and even the quality of your sleep.

My work has been published in the Journal of European Public Policy, Socio-Economic Review, European Political Science Review, Governance, Social Policy and Administration and other outlets. My book "Social Concertation in Times of Austerity" was published by Amsterdam University Press in 2013. You can have a look at my publications and my profile on Google scholar.
Before joining Leiden University, I was a lecturer in the Department of Political Economy at King's College London (2012-2015). I have held postdoctoral research fellowships at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies in Cologne (2011-2012) and the European University Institute in Florence (Max Weber programme, 2010-2011). I have also been a visiting fellow at Johns Hopkins University (SAIS, Washington DC, 2011) and the University of Amsterdam (2008-2010). I earned my PhD in Politics at the University of Lausanne (Switzerland) in June 2010. I am Swiss and Portuguese, and speak French, english, Portuguese, Italian, German and Dutch.
I occasionally blog here and tweet here. Some things that I have written have been featured in the New York Times, Science, the Times Higher Education, The Nation and Slate among others, and I have written pieces for the Washington Post, the Daily Telegraph and CNN.com
