Four former Soviet satellites in central Europe said Tuesday they were "shocked" by Russia's actions in the Ukraine crisis as it brought back memories of Moscow's clampdown on protests in their countries during the Cold War.
"The Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia are shocked to be witness to a military intervention in 21st-century Europe that resembles their own experiences in 1956, 1968 and 1981," the four countries' leaders said in a joint statement.
It was published after President Vladimir Putin said Russia had the right to use "all means" to protect its citizens in Ukraine but denied he had already deployed troops there.
But he also made clear that Moscow had no intention of loosening its new grip on Ukraine's Crimea peninsula.
Leaders of the four EU countries regularly meet as part the so-called Visegrad group to discuss security and energy issues as well as their partnership with eastern European countries, such as Russia and Ukraine.
They said Russia's "latest military actions are a violation of international law and create a new dangerous reality in Europe".
After the end of World War II and until the fall of the Berlin Wall, the four countries were part of the Soviet bloc and Moscow crushed pro-democracy movements in Budapest in 1956 and in Prague in 1968.
In Poland, the Kremlin abstained from direct military intervention in 1981 and left it to the country's communist leaders to impose martial law to crush anti-communist opposition.
Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk was joined at the Visegrad meeting by his counterparts Bohuslav Sobotka of the Czech Republic, Hungary's Viktor Orban, and Slovakia's Robert Fico.
While criticising Moscow's role in Crimea, Tusk said the international community's pressure on Moscow had at least temporarily led to a climbdown from Russia.
"It seems that for now the worst-case scenario, also the most dangerous for Poland, has maybe been brought to a halt. Is it durable? That no one knows," he told reporters in Warsaw after the United States toughened its stance against Moscow by suspending military cooperation.
- 'Nothing resolved yet' -
Tusk said Putin's press conference Tuesday was "a sign of the effectiveness of pressure on Russia" by institutions like the European Union to stop Moscow's "brutal intervention in Ukraine's internal affairs and especially its paramilitary intervention in Crimea".
"It's very clear that Russian officials did some thinking and that they themselves see the need for another, political solution to the conflict."
Tusk added however that it was only a first step, saying the global community must remain vigilant since "nothing has been resolved yet".
Poland and Lithuania meanwhile denied allegations by Putin that they had trained Ukrainian protesters who toppled pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych.
Putin claimed Tuesday that Ukrainian "protesters were trained in certain bases in neighbouring territories -- Lithuania, Poland, also Ukraine itself".
Tusk said this was "very far removed from reality", while Lithuania's Foreign Minister Linas Linkevicius tweeted that Putin's accusations were "groundless insinuations".
An ex-Soviet EU and NATO member, Lithuania played a key role in efforts to seal an EU association pact with Ukraine during its stint as EU president last year.
Yanukovych rejected the agreement in November in favour of an aid deal with Russia, sparking the three months of protests which ultimately led to his ouster.
Poland has also long been active in drawing Ukraine closer to the EU and NATO, and so further out of its Soviet-era master's orbit.

Fruit Crunch Sundae
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 20 mins
This is one of Ina Garten's recipes and when I saw it yesterday, I figured I'd better post it before it is no longer available. This looked absolutely awesome!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup quick-cooking rolled oats (not instant)
- 1⁄2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- 1⁄2 cup sliced almonds or 1⁄2 cup slivered almonds
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons good honey
- 8 -10 strawberries, small-diced
- 1⁄2 cup blueberries
- 1⁄4 cup pineapple, small-diced
- 2 cups plain yogurt
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Toss the oats, coconut, almonds, oil and honey together in a large bowl until they are completely combined.
- Pour into a sheet pan and bake, stirring occasionally with a spatula, until the mixture turns a nice, even golden brown, about 20 minutes.
- Remove the granola from the oven and allow to cool, stirring once.
- Combine the strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple in a bowl.
- In 4 ice cream sundae glasses, layer first the fruit, then the yogurt and the cooked granola alternately until you fill the glasses.
- Serve with a long spoon and enjoy!
Most Helpful
Awesome recipe, especially when made with Greek yogurt (Fage). Trader Joe's has it. Don't skip the pineapple. In my opinion, that takes the recipe over the top this time of year when pineapples are so sweet.
I just finished my delicious sundae! The hardest part was waiting for the granola to cool. I didn't have any strawberries, but I used some leftover blueberry compote and pineapple. The blueberries were great with the creamy yogurt. I can't wait to make again! Roxygirl
Over the top fantastic! The granola was so very easy to make. I can't rave enough about this recipe. Thanks for posting it.

Take Loop 256 around Palestine until you get to Link Street, which is also 3309. Turn north and continue until you see signs pointing left for Davey Dogwood Park. Turn left into the park and at first jct bear right on one-way road with sign for Trail. At next jct stay right and go by open field on left. At next jct bear right on one-way road #2 and go to the large picnic pavillion in the center and park here.
Walk across the picnic area to a bridge. Cross the bridge, turn left, and follow the trail. The trail runs parallel to the stream you crossed over.
Continue on the trail until it comes to a T. There wil be a small concrete bridge to the left that leads back to the road. You should turn right and follow the trail a short distance to a Y.
Take the trail to the left.
From the Y, take 74 steps and look to your right. There is a rather long tree down that leads from the trail to a stump. Make your way to the other end of the downed tree. (You may have to go a few steps back down the trail in order to get there).
The box is nestled underneath the side of the downed tree a few inches from the end.
Please replace as found and contact me regarding the condition of this box. There are several boxes to enjoy in this park.

Mobile Shrine
Colorado is a long way from the birthplace of Buddhism, but a part of the Buddha's legacy will be here this week.
A collection of 45 sacred relics believed to be taken from the remains of fifteen Buddhist saints -- including the historical Siddhartha Gautama himself -- will be exhibited in Denver and Boulder as part of the Heart-Shrine Relic Tour. The relics, called ringsel, are crystalline deposits culled from the saints' ashes. Believers view them as physical evidence of spiritual advancement, and many Buddhists say that being in their presence brings on heightened feelings of calm and meditative awareness.
"It's inspiring to be around such sacred objects," says Helen Chang, one of the exhibition's organizers. "It creates an impact in people at many levels, from historical interest to veneration."
Many of the remains are thought to be thousands of years old. In Asia, such artifacts are usually housed in temples and are not removed for touring purposes. As a result, it is extremely unusual for them to be exhibited publicly in the United States.

TicketsSat., Aug. 6, 7:00pm
The relics come from half a dozen different countries, but all of them will eventually be displayed at a Buddhist cultural complex being developed in northern India. Known as the Maitreya Project, it will include a fifty-story statue of the Buddha as well as a temple, exhibition hall, library and adjacent monastery. A hospital and school are also part of the plan, which has been endorsed by the Dalai Lama. Information about the Maitreya Project will be available during the showing.
After 2006, the relics will be housed inside the Buddha statue in a room known as the Heart Shrine. Once there, they are not expected to be taken out on tour again.
The Denver showing will include food and live music. After 5 p.m., attendants will offer blessings to visitors, touching each person on the top of the head with a small model of a shrine containing relics.

It is the year 2524. Harvest is a peaceful, prosperous farming colony on the very edge of human-controlled space. But we have trespassed on holy ground, strayed into the path of an aggressive alien empire known as the Covenant. What begins as a chance encounter between an alien privateer and a human freighter catapults mankind into a struggle for its very existence.
But humanity is also locked in a bitter civil war known as the Insurrection. So the survival of Harvest's citizens falls to a squad of battle-weary UNSC Marines and their inexperienced colonial militia trainees. In this unlikely group of heroes, one stands above the rest: a young Marine staff sergeant named Avery Johnson.

Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum
I love this series. But the biggest problem I have run into is the read order. Now that I am on #6 I can share with certainty.
Halo: Contact Harvest
Halo: The Cole Protocol
Halo: The Fall Of Reach
Halo: The Flood
Halo: First Strike
Halo: Ghosts of Onyx
Once I have finished the available books I'll update the list.
"I'm not a gamer"
Always looking for good sci fi on Audible. This book's got everthing I like in the genra; high tech gadgetry and theories, likeable characters (including the aliens), and storyline.
I almost didn't buy the book because I'm not a big fan of video games. But I'm glad I gave it a chance.
I recommend it.
"Halo: Contact Harvest"
I am a big fan of the game so i was realy looking forward to hearing this book.They did an awesome job of telling the store. I hope that they do the same for the first 3 books!! Great job and please keep up the great work.
"Awesome origin story for Sgt. Johnson"
This is a great story of Sgt. Johnson's life before Halo. Also very current events with the insurrection that he's fighting. No Spartans in this one, but it doesn't suffer for that.
PARENTAL WARNING! You may want to edit out the last five minutes of this story. There's a sex scene at the end. While not very graphic and not unbelievable it's still very obvious what's going on. If you miss it and this is your kid's first introduction to sex, it's not bad either. They actually care about each other.
"Great new Halo Book"
Its a great book and very intresting.
If you have read/listened the other halo books this is a great addition to your colletion as it explains a lot about the history between human kind and the covedant.
"Very Good!!"
If you love halo? You will love this book!!!!
"First Contact"
This is the book that starts it all and lays the footings for the Human - Covenant war. It is the story of first contact between races, and its a good listen.
"Unparalleled retelling"
This is a marvelously done retelling of the first moment of the Halo war, perfect!!
"Great audiobook!"
Wonderful performance and pace making. Really enjoyed the narrators switching off between certain chapters, as well as differentiating between characters. 10/10 would listen again.

And there's something charming about its breathless reminder of the mystical magic of Pythagorean tuning, and its mythical discovery in folklore. Fact check – as the film sort of suggests, we don't really know how this discovery took place since our knowledge is fragmentary. It may not have involved any individual named Pythagoras, or indeed taken place on Samos. But the power associated with the harmony of mathematics, sound, and perception does have historical basis – in the …
Sorry. I'm terrible at writing headlines, actually. I'm also mostly terrible at writing reviews. So let me just say that if you haven't heard Horse Lords, the Baltimore-based indie band, since their 2010 founding, you deserve to. And they make a great argument for why alternative tunings really do matter in music.
Can you whistle? Can you hum? Sing? Dance? Let's assume for a moment that the problem isn't your musicality, because you have something to express. The point of technology and music skill is really to express that inner musicality. For a beautiful demonstration of that, watch one guy roam the streets of Berlin's Kreuzberg neighborhood with one piece of gear – and make an amazing song just from looping.
We've reached the mature age of music apps. You're likely to use fewer of them, and the landscape is saturated with the most popular ideas. It's also clear that iPad, not Android, is the viable tablet platform. But the few apps that are left standing as serious music tools are better than ever. They're easier to integrate with your computer and standalone hardware, and they feel more like instruments and less like toys. They walk some line between making music production more accessible to beginners, and offering refreshing simplicity to people who are mixing them with other gear. And Skram, …
File under artists who inspire us: Lee Gamble is for us the embodiment of thoughtful, adventurous sound making. CDM's Zuzana Friday talks to him about his latest project, UIQ – one that brings rich discourse and dimension to music. -Ed. You could say that Lee Gamble has a degree in making abstract music – using samples, snippets, and elements of styles ranging from jungle to techno. The master producer 'sound wizard' contributed to PAN Records' discography with a number of releases combining his musical roots and sound phantasmagorias.
Richard Devine's Vimeo account is something special. It's certainly partly theater – there's something entirely alien about seeing a nest of gear, tangled in cables and blinking, as if modules have achieved sentience and starting interconnecting themselves. But behind that facade of nerdy chaos is some real thought about how to make sounds by creating unexpected combinations of signal processors. It's something I've been discussing with a lot of people lately – this interplay between stability and instability, automaton and entropy.
Ableton Live 9.7 is right now in public beta – just days after the latest 9.6 release went final. Most of the functionality announced so far is related to Push and beat making; 9.7 brings features that let you play, record, and slice more easily from Ableton's hardware. But that shouldn't mean you should despair if you're not a Push user; as with each Push release so far, there are parallel improvements in the software itself.
Behringer continues to leak out teaser videos about its upcoming analog synth – and with the rest of the industry out on summer vacation, they've got pretty much everyone's full attention. There's a few things you can learn from their latest video – not least that I was dead wrong, and this is a polysynth, not a monosynth. (Oops.)
Don't like clicks or beeps or other sounds when using a metronome? Try some haptic feedback instead, with this free utility.
Time to start singing about how we're the operator with our pocket calculator again. The ZONT Synthesizer is an upcoming handheld instrument. And it's what one designer imagines for the synths of the future. Apart from being tiny, you can change its function by snapping cartridges in and out – Game Boy style. And whereas we think of synths now as big, clunky boxes with wires coming out of them, the ZONT can either plug into a desktop dock for connectivity or connect wirelessly. We've had a chat with its designer to see what's in store.

I have a variable which stores the css value of a margin. I want to remove the "px" from the end so that i just have the number to work with. How can i do this?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Using the String.replace() method is an easy way:
Option 1:
The parseInt() function parses a string and returns an integer. Don't change the 10 found in the above function (known as a "radix") unless you know what you are doing.
Output will be: 200.
Option 2 (I personally prefer this option)
Output will be: 200
The parseFloat() function parses a string and returns a floating point number.
The parseFloat() function determines if the first character in the specified string is a number. If it is, it parses the string until it reaches the end of the number, and returns the number as a number, not as a string.
The advantage of Option 2 is that if you use decimal numbers (e.g. 200.32322px) you will get the number returned with the values behind the decimal point. Useful if you need specific numbers returned.
You're better off using parsefloat()
In situations where you have decimals, like 0.5s for transition-delay, parseInt(x,10) returns zero, where in contrast parsefloat() returns 0.5

In Overdone 'Titans,' Tale of Football and Race Gets Sacked by Cliches
"R emember the Titans " is a strenuously fictionalized account of the racial strife that ensued when two high schools in Alexandria, Va., were integrated through consolidation in 1971, and their football teams, one black and one white, were thrown together as the T.C. Williams High Titans. Denzel Washington plays Herman Boone, the black man brought in from another state as the Titans' head coach. Will Patton is Bill Yoast, formerly the white school's coach and a local legend now demoted to the status of Boone's assistant. During one of the many flare-ups between the two men, the noble but driven Boone tells the hostile but astute Yoast: "Ya overcookin' my grits!" The movie wants to inspire, and sometimes it does so; ultimately the team triumphs over bigotry, as well as its gridiron rivals. But "Remember the Titans" kept overcookin' my grits -- and I don't even eat grits -- with machine-made melodramatics and glib uplift. Who needs to feel furtively bad about feeling fitfully good?
The last straw, or close to it, was one of the first straws in a withering rhetorical wind. It's an early sequence when Boone, after busing his angry players to a summer training camp at Gettysburg College, takes them on a visit to the battlefield. Then damned if he doesn't deliver his own Gettysburg Address. "If we don't come together right now on this hallowed ground," Mr. Washington intones solemnly, as an orchestra swells, "we too will be destroyed." This coach has previously insisted to other blacks in Alexandria that he's just a coach, "not a savior or Martin Luther King or the Easter bunny." But Gregory Allen Howard's screenplay gives him the wisdom of a Solomon, and flights of tinny eloquence that should have been canceled long before takeoff. (In its slapdash fashion, the script also gives him a wife who's all but mute, except for occasional observations like "Sometimes life's just hard, for no reason at all.")
"Remember the Titans" was directed energetically, to say the least, by Boaz Yakin, who made his directorial debut in 1994 with a fine independent feature called "Fresh." More to the point of its coarse texture, however, "Titans" was produced by Jerry Bruckheimer, the heavy Hollywood hitter whose credits include such action extravaganzas as "Armageddon," "Con Air" and "Top Gun," as well as this year's "Gone in Sixty Seconds" and "Coyote Ugly." His latest film is an instructive -- and cautionary -- example of how a strong producer can dominate a production. Advance publicity has characterized "Titans" as a happy anomaly in Mr. Bruckheimer's career, a labor of love that was shot on a relatively modest budget. I'm in no position to question the budget or the love, but the result is standard-brand Bruckheimer most of the way.
That means a movie bent on selling big emotions in every scene. It means storytelling in fits and starts, with subtlety subordinated to raw impact, characterization sacrificed to posturing (the rigid writing undercuts Mr. Washington in scene after scene) and coherence shattered by breakneck -- or breakbrain -- pace. The football games are exciting, and the young players, as well as the rival coaches, do manage to move us now and then with their progress toward reconciliation and brotherhood. But the movie's style and substance are fundamentally at odds. True inspiration doesn't need to be sold.
I f you don't think of Marlon Brando's smoldering power at some point during "Girlfight ," Karyn Kusama's splendid debut film about a young female boxer, you've probably never seen Brando perform. It's not that the heroine, Diana Guzman, lacks a feminine side. One of the many rewards of Michelle Rodriguez's performance -- another remarkable debut -- and of the film as a whole, is the tenderness that Diana reveals to her boyfriend, along with the newfound strength, as this troubled child of the Brooklyn projects learns to direct her rage into her fists. But Ms. Rodriguez's hooded eyes bear a startling resemblance to Brando's, and she even does Brando's old trick of looking up with ominous intensity while keeping her face turned down. I'll bet she watched every Brando movie she could find, especially "On the Waterfront," in which his character, the ex-boxer Terry Malloy, laments famously: "I could have been a contender."
Given its subject matter, "Girlfight" could have been exploitive, or a cheerless feminist tract. Instead, it's a riveting revelation of fresh filmmaking talent. (Musical talent too; Theodore Shapiro's score is unusually effective.) Female boxing has been greeted with tentative respect only recently, so "Girlfight" has the virtue of an almost journalistic topicality. To that Ms. Kusama has added the controversial element of gender-blind matchups. Diana's boyfriend, Adrian (Santiago Douglas), is an aspiring boxer too, and they duke it out in the ring. (What a way to act out the power struggles of a domestic relationship!) Yet there's seldom a sense of the film as a freak show. The oddity soon recedes, leaving us to root for Diana as a classic protagonist in a boxing movie. And she's a force to be reckoned with by her younger brother and her father at home, where she tries to avenge what she believes was her father's violence against her late mother, a suicide when Diana was a little girl.
"Girlfight" freshens up many of the genre's cliches, though it fails to find a convincing ending. Diana's weary but devoted trainer, Hector, is beautifully played by Jaime Tirelli. "You can train but you can't fight," he tells her early on. When she asks him, a bit later, what it takes to be great, he replies, with heartbreaking candor, "I don't know." The boxing scenes are staged and shot expertly (the cinematographer, Patrick Cady, is another important find), but even they reveal a distinctive style -- a woman's style. Rather than pump up the combat in the testosterone-fueled tradition of movies like "Raging Bull," Ms. Kusama understates it, holds everything to human scale without pulling any punches. That makes the blows seem all the harder, and Diana's successes all the sweeter.
'Best in Show'
I t isn't innocence that Christopher Guest has lost in "Best in Show ," his amusing dog-show mockumentary that's a follow-up to his delightful "Waiting For Guffman," a 1997 feature in the same genre. There was nothing innocent about "Guffman's" sly, subversive send-up of amateur theatrics, and of life in a small Missouri town trying to celebrate its sesquicentennial with an ambitious pageant. But Mr. Guest directed "Guffman" with a touch so light and delicate that he never needed to belabor the basic joke -- the fact that the whole thing was fiction, an elaborate comic invention. What's lost this time around is the delicacy. "Best in Show" dotes on its own antics, just as its screwball dog fanciers dote on their dogs.
Take the elaborate archness of Eugene Levy's menswear salesman, Gerry Fleck, who uses air quotes when he speaks. (Gerry and his wife, Cookie, played by Catherine O'Hara, are married to their Norwich terrier, Winky.) Mr. Levy, the co-writer of both films with Mr. Guest, gives a performance that's several sizes larger than his droll, deadpan dentist in "Guffman"; it's also much heavier. Larger still, and terribly shrill, is the yuppie couple played by Parker Posey and Michael Hitchcock. (The film opens with a psychiatrist treating Beatrice, their depressed Weimaraner.) Though the audience around me adored Fred Willard as the Mayflower Kennel Club's mush-brained TV announcer, I found his outlandish material completely detached from any conceivable reality.
That's the crucial difference between the two films. "Guffman" stayed connected, however whimsically, to something resembling the real world. "Best in Show" cuts gleefully loose. There's much to enjoy in Christopher Guest's new mockumentary, including his own delicious -- and notably restrained -- portrait of a bloodhound owner from the boondocks of North Carolina. But restraint loses out to unleashed looniness. What's the dog-show equivalent of gilding the lily? Painting the pooch.
DVD Tip: Christopher Guest was one of the writers, and one of the stars, of "This Is Spinal Tap " (1984). The groundbreaking, side-tickling and earsplitting comedy, which was directed by Rob Reiner and which defined the mockumentary genre, has just been re-released in theaters, and on DVD with extra footage, outtakes and commentary by Mr. Guest, among other mockrock luminaries.

Military kids find peace at Camp Bob
Published: Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, July 4, 2009 at 1:02 a.m.
The kids are splashing in the water and jumping into a small swimming hole on the grounds of Camp Bob at the Kanuga Conference Center.
Theres a slight breeze in the warm mountain air of July. The kids are laughing, building sandcastles on the small beach of the water hole and, in general, just being kids.
Each child at the camp this past week, though, has experienced an absence. One or both of their parents serves in the armed forces and has been deployed overseas. Its Operation Purple, a free summer camp held to support military children.
It gives you time with kids who are going through the same thing, said Everette, 9, of Virginia. The Times-News is only using first names to protect their identities.
Purple represents all branches of the military service. The program is organized by the National Military Family Association.
The goal of Operation Purple summer camps is to let these young heroes know that kids serve too, said Mary Scott, the association's chair of the board. Military children who attend camp will have the opportunity to learn the skills to cope with the stress of a deployment and make friends with other kids who are also missing their mom or dad.
Its just a great experience, being able to come here, said Matthew, who turned 12 on Thursday.
Theres archery, rock wall climbing, canoeing and white-water rafting. Theres also a Wall of Honor. The first night, all the campers came together with a photo of their parent who is serving in the military. Each cabin made banners with the photos of the parents. It hangs in the dining hall of Camp Bob.
It feels good to be around people who have the same experience, said Lily, a.k.a. Critter, 10, of Marietta, Ga.
Swimming. Actually canoeing, Everette said of his favorite activity. Its a teamwork activity. Its also fun.
The kids have a chance to discuss the stress of having a parent serve overseas. Each child was given a journal to write daily reflections. There are small group sessions were the kids can talk about what its like to have parents serving. They are also able to bond with kids going through a similar circumstance at home.
My mom is in the Navy Reserves. My dad is in Iraq with the Marines, said Jenna, a.k.a. Pom Pom, 12, from Jacksonville. My dad left in the morning. My whole family was there to comfort each other.
Back home, when the kids talk about their parents, every time we try to tell someone about it, they dont understand, said Natalie, a.k.a. All Star, 9, of South Carolina.
The kids also feel closer to their parents by doing some activities similar to what the adults are doing when they serve. The kids ate MRE, Meals Ready-to-Eat, which was the least favorite meal at the camp. The rest of the food was great, campers said.
We get to do stuff they do, kind of, said Mark, 14, of Jacksonville.
We climb the rock walls and carry big packs, said Nick, 14, of Tampa, Fla. We get all serious and talk about what makes us feel happy, what makes us feel sad.
Eighty-three kids attended the first week of Operation Purple camp at Camp Bob. The same number will attend for a second week in August. Last year, Camp Bob joined the program for the first time and hosted 70 kids from seven states.
One hundred and twenty camps applied to be a part of Operation Purple, and only 60 were selected. Camp Bob also has a waiting list. Parents are still calling, wanting to get their kids in.
Throughout the stay, kids receive dog tags signifying their involvement. They create chants, by cabin, for the closing ceremony and compete for a spirit award during their stay. Recently, the Obamas and members of Congress donated backpacks for all the Operation Purple sites.
Im very excited about Operation Purple returning to Kanuga this summer, said David Griffin, executive director of the camp. Its a safe place for military children to bond with each other and know they arent alone.
The Sierra Club and the Sierra Club Foundation supports the camp so all children can attend without any charge.
Im really happy I got the opportunity to come here, Jenna said.

If anyone fits the definition of a "Clairemonster," it's Richard Morris.
"Eighty-thousand people live in Clairemont. It's the largest community in San Diego. It's rolling hills and panoramic ocean views. I specialize in Clairemont because I live and breathe Clairemont," said Morris, a Realtor with Century 21 1st Choice Realty since 2005.
Having lived in the community for 33 years, Morris is as familiar with its neighborhoods and organizations as they are with him. Getting involved is his primary source of new business and leads.
"I'm in my second year as president of Clairemont Hills Kiwanis," he said. "I'm vice president of Clairemont Town Council after being a director for a couple of years. I'm on the boards of the Clairemont Chamber of Commerce, Bay Mesa Real Estate Association, Clairemont Mesa Education Foundation, the Clairemont Art Guild.
"This business is all about relationships, about people feeling comfortable and having confidence in you. My mantra for this year and every other year is 'consistency.' There's no other word for a Realtor that's going to give your business a better foundation."
Richard Morris is a Realtor at Century 21 1st Choice
Morris got his start in real estate 10 years ago after realizing he didn't like punching a time card at a previous job. He even used his company benefits to visit a career counselor, who suggested real estate as a possible path. "And so I did, and it has proven to be something I truly am grateful for and enjoy," he said.
After earning his agent's license, his very first listing came from a fellow member in his gym's swimming pool. Working at another real estate office at the time, he saw the listing -- six parcels in El Cajon -- wasn't moving. He came to Century 21 1st Choice near his home in Clairemont Mesa, where the sales manager worked with him to boost the price. The listing sold for $1.15 million, and Morris decided to stay put.
"We're a team here," he said. "The environment is so conducive to sales. I know a lot about real estate because I hang out with people who know a lot about real estate. I have been to 300 different training seminars either put on by this office or by people who come into this office. I just eat it up. We have 'lunch and learn' every Thursday. It's just constant training and outside influence and that's how you get a feel for this business."
His resolutions for 2014? Getting his broker's license, starting a website and expanding his social media presence.
Looks like a monster year ahead for the "Clairemonster."

When Design Makes a Difference
The Women & Health Initiative at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has an unique agenda focused on women's health needs and women's critical roles as both formal and informal participants in healthcare systems across the world.
W&HI came to us recently with a project: create attractive, readable versions of our case study data from information gathered globally. The results included eight case study booklets – cohesive in design though categorized by color – and corresponding one-pagers. The booklets encompass a project titled Adding Content to Contact: Case Studies on Antenatal and Postnatal Care.
W&HI has recently finalized a series of articles based on the larger case study project which is under consideration for publication in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology. Once accepted, BJOG will also reproduce the case studies we designed to supplement these new articles.

One of the most important ways in which schools can help your children perform better in classrooms is to provide them with the nutrition necessary for healthy minds and bodies. To that end, Schuylerville Central School District provides breakfast and lunch for Elementary School and Middle School students and lunch for High School students.
On average, the district serves more than 200,000 meals each school year.
There is Such a Thing as a Free Lunch!
You're invited to take advantage of free and reduced-price meals at Schuylerville. The confidential program is available to students from households that meet federal income guidelines. The price for reduced-cost meals is just $0.25. Download the 2015-16 application as a PDF file or open the Microsoft Word version, which allows users to type information into the application. Call Food Service Manager Sarah Keen at (518) 695-3255, extension 2290 for details.

Special Activities
Parents, guardians and family members are invited to
eat breakfast or lunch with students. Adult lunch price is $3.30 plus
tax and breakfast is $1.80 plus tax.
Also, be sure to check the menus for special events, such as theme meals and the grandparents' breakfasts.
Schuylerville students are invited to take advantage of the district's computerized account system for purchasing and paying for meals. Under this system, parents can deposit money into their child's account by sending a check into school with their child or sending a check in the mail.
Students then enter their Personal Identification Number (PIN) when they proceed through the meal line. The cost of the meal is automatically deducted from the account.
There are several advantages to this computerized system:
Parents do not have to send cash to school on a daily basis.
Parents are assured that the money is spent on food at school.
The check sent is a record of deposits into the meal accounts. The district can also print an activity report on any child's account.
Checks for student meal accounts should be made out to SCS Food Service and should include the student's PIN.

Even if you do not play in every game, study the playbook daily. Anytime you have a free minute, take a look at the plays. You want to be ready to get thrown into the game at any time. You never know when someone may get hurt or your coach wants to give you a chance to play. Knowing the plays will keep you from looking foolish on the field. Do not get overly comfortable in the position that you currently play. Gain an understanding of all positions in order to better understand the team dynamics and how they will help you to win games. Team work is a necessity to win games, and this will increase the strength of your team.
When trying out for a team, it is important to be physically fit because of the demands placed on each player. Always start any fitness workout with slow stretches, then aerobic and other forms of exercise. Follow these with weight lifting and a cool down routine. Discover your best talent in football and focus on that, rather than trying too hard to be a superstar player. Coaches need specific plays and players, not fancy show-offs. Practice and perfect your best drills and make sure you can participate with those exact moves when the coach and team needs you most. Take up a dance class to improve your footwork. Before you laugh, think back to reality television dancing competitions and how many times NFL players not only competed but succeeded! Ballroom dancing and even ballet are extremely effective at helping football players get an extra edge on the field. In order to be a good football player you must be agile. To improve your agility practice doing agility drills. These types of agility drills include running through tires, jumping over cones and jumping rope. By doing these agility drills on a regular basis you will become a better football player. In order to play quarterback in the pro's you must have a few great qualities. The first attribute you must have is a strong arm. Another essential tool is having a quick release, because the faster you get rid of the football the better. Another is toughness, you have to be able to take a hit.
Becoming a football fan is easy enough, but learning the intricacies of the game requires a much greater understanding of the rules and how to play. If you desire to learn about all the "little things" that go into a football game that most people aren't aware of, then continue on to the article below. You will gain a better grasp of the strategies that go into each football game. Build confidence on the field by studying hard. A lot of the times, it's not your physical abilities that matter, it's your mindset and knowledge of the game. If you know more than the next guy, you can make up for a lot of physical weaknesses. It creates a confidence level that others just won't be able to match.
One of the most important things a receiver must learn is how to line up properly. If you do not line up properly, it can result in an illegal formation call. Seven players must be lined up with the football prior to the snap for a legal possession to take place.
Learn to be precise in your patterns. It can't be emphasized enough the importance of precision. Just a few feet in any direction and you won't be in place to make an important tackle or to catch the football that's been thrown to you. This takes a lot of repetition during practice, so be ready for it. It is crucial to be aware of the defensive positions. There are eight in total. They include the defensive end, tackle, nose tackle, both outside linebackers, a cornerback and both safeties. The lineup is different for 4-3 and 3-4 games. Strong and free safety are the safety positions.
Put points on the board by scoring a touchdown. The offense in each game has a goal of getting the ball and making a touchdown. To get a touchdown, a single player must bring the ball over the opposition goal line, or catch a pass thrown to them as they are inside the end zone. When a player crosses the line while clutching the football, that's a touchdown. Touchdowns score six points.

JEWETT, Texas -- With seven starters returning on offense and eight back on defense the Cougars are poised to make it back to the postseason for the first time since 2010.
Tyler Morris is back under center to lead the Leon Wing-T offense, and he will have three starters back on the offensive line to lead the way. On defense two starters are back up front, three at linebacker, and three in the secondary.
The road to the postseason will be tough again, as the Cougars will have to get past state runner-up Mart (12-3 in 2012), Bosqueville (12-2), and Axtell (6-6) for a playoff spot. The opportunity to face Axtell and Bosqueville at home may be the edge the Cougars need to punch their ticket to the postseason in 2013.

DALLAS (November 27, 2013) The cold, icy weather that gripped West Texas has moved out, but lingering power outages could mean no electricity for hundreds of homes and businesses through Thanksgiving.
Nearly 2,400 customers of two utilities were still without power Wednesday as crews worked to restore service.
Dallas-based Oncor reported about 1,400 outages mainly in the Midland and Odessa areas.
Power might not be restored to all customers until late Thursday night, Oncor said.
AEP Texas had about 950 outages, mainly in the Alpine and Marfa areas, where a transmission line was damaged during the weekend storm.

"Art doesn't come from inspiration. Art comes from work!"
Tom Toperzer stressed that to me when I consulted him about his current show - four works in the Corner Artspace at the new Hastings Books Music and Videos at 2020 S. Georgia St.
That Artspace exists largely due to Toperzer's recommendation that the store's coffee shop have a small gallery which opened early this month with a pizazz of jazz.
"Things don't just come about; people make them happen," Toperzer maintains. For two years as Director of the Amarillo Museum of Art, he instituted exhibitions and events which made the AMoA a much more happening place than it had been.
Now, "retired," he's putting as much time as he can into art-making. "I take a canvas and do something to it and then do something else to it," he said, paraphrasing Jasper Johns. "My art comes out of work. It evolves. It's a journey with materials and ideas - you don't want to repeat yourself."
Toperzer's work begins with drawings on paper, which are cut into rectangles and collaged (in no resemblance to the original imagery) onto stretched canvases. That creates a labor-intensive surface on which to paint or draw with non-fading inks.
So his "flat" surfaces aren't all that flat to begin with. Beginning drawings, for three of the works, involved dots and numbers.
Whatever the original connections in those may have been, he then deliberately disconnected them to create something else over which he imposed straight red lines.
The lines are in definite but irregular patterns. They're somewhat faded in "Truth Telling: Thunder in the Desert," more intense in "Clear Evidence: The Fiftieth Day," and more in balance with black shapes and lines in "Truth Telling: Angel Armies."
Balanced or not balanced? Focused into space or on the surface? Intense or relaxed?
Those and other questions relating to visual experience of abstract design may provide keys to being engaged by these collages' (that aren't just collages) realms of ambiguity.
They're not "about" anything except considerations of what's next which, in "Veil," called for an impulsive mini-flood of red paint.
Today is the last day to view the member-photographers' show in the Red Room at Panhandle Art Center, 3701 Plains Blvd.
Kevin Bogue, Devrey Burch, Gregory Collins, Beverly Dampf, Jim Dearman, Joan Hartenstein, Tom Higley, R.D. Hooks, Don Spring and Gary Stach have images on display.
Documentary-realistic to experimental-abstract; full color to black and white; where to begin?
Flowers - which are in sensational evidence in a number of small images by Burch - are represented with some "straight" photography while others are digitally worked for greater advantages with light, shape and other qualities accentuating intimacy. Spring enlarges on this in his super-sensitive "White Iris." Higley assures us that artificial blooms can be really colorful, while Hooks digitally directs flowers into mystery in his "Blue Vase."
Hooks' "Bronze Age" goes even further into tan-toned abstraction, while Dampf injects color switches into "Hill Country Evening" but reverts to exquisite realism in her "Tea For Two" image of butterflies. Further insectivorous sensitivities appear in butterflies by Dearman and a dragonfly image by Bogue.
Bogue also explores sentient delicacies in waterfall imagery, while Spring pursues fleeting light effects in canyon imagery but turns to emphatic "classic" factuality in his "Peking Duck." Dearman captures spectacles of feral life in images of geese and turkeys, while Higley's "Panhandle Skies" aims high for dramatic nuances of color.
Collins' large images of aged autos, add tones of stark drama to the show - as do Stach's prints, several of which are solarizations. Both work largely in black and white.
Glimmering nuances in Stach's "Back Stairway," and sky-vehicle contrast in Collins' "Special...Once" manifest the expressive strength of the medium.
As I single out certain works in particular for comment, I'm also aware how widely and celebratively these photographers' eyes have traveled, and how variously they've explored the expressive potentials of the medium.

Wow, a Quidditch match and a good one, too. I'm impressed. It was exciting, and I was sort of on the edge of my seat to see what would happen. Well done. I also like how Severus and Lily experience all these emotions and go through some slow' gradual changes. The story keeps getting better.
I'm enjoying this story. I like how you get deep into Severus' thoughts and feelings, which seem pretty accurate. I'm curious to see where he will go from here.
I'm enjoying this story. I like how you get deep into Severus' thoughts and feelings, which seem pretty accurate. I'm curious to see where he will go from here.
It was really impressive to see Snape's growth throughout the story. He starts out so pitiable and angsty, but he seems to be becoming more and more empowered. Even if he never gets with Lily he has grown so much as a person that he's far better off than in canon.
I wonder if you were setting up for a LEJP and SSMM interlude. I just can't see Lily being attracted to Snape when he follows her around like a lost puppy all the time. He needs to be forced to get over her.
I beg of you, please please PLEASE don't let this story be abandoned. It is truly one of the best Snape fics I've ever read. I still check it all the time in hopes of an update.
Wow! 16 more days and it'll be a year since the last chapter!
The sad part is that I load this page daily to see if it was updated, since there are no alerts in this website. Or maybe I just don't know how to use this. Ha!
Any chance of this being uploaded to FFNet or AO3?
I hope that you haven't entirely abandoned this? (Though as the writer and of several incomplete chapters of an unpublished story I can understand how you might).
It is still the best thing that I've come across in a long while, and I still have the chapters saved to an external drop-box. As I may have said before, the ethos of the story puts me in mind of Atonement; and you balance a brilliant tightrope walk between the desirable and believeable. Its quite satisfying to have some closure in this manner.
All the best, and I'll keep periodically checking under Authors for updates!
ps 'Dirty old Town' - a 'The Pogues' reference?
Hmmmmm interesting....cliffhanger! Haha nice!
Hahahaha nice one, Lily. :) Love that girl.
This is my favorite story! hank you for bein brilliant!
Oh what to say? I absolutely adore this story and I especially love your characterization of Snape. I feel like he and Lily really do deserve to be together, because of the way you have written them. Oh please up date this story!!!!! This is going into my favorites, and I would love it if this story could actually be finished, too. You have such a fluent writing style and you are able to get into the characters' heads really well! I feel like I understand and appreciate them all a little more. :D So please continue this story!!!!
By the way, I forgot to mention, that I really liked the professor and how he helped Severus.
Loved this update. Still the best SSLE story by far.
Somehow I missed that you had updated! I'm glad to see you back. I'm really curious as to where this story is going. I hope your writer's block is gone for good.
Hmm... This is a hard thing to write a comment to a fanfiction.
I rarely do it, cause what can you actually write to a thing, that you simply find "AWESOME"?
You must admit that it's rather quite a poor comment even though that's exactly what I think about your work. I rarely find or have the occasion to read something, and I mean here even books, that have such an impact on me and gives me so much excitement while reading, as your story. It's just a fanfiction, but I actually have the feeling that you give Rowling's characters the depth I was missing in her books. That your story revolves around my favorite character in HP have surely something to do with me picking your story to read… But the fact that even the point of view of characters I previously despised, or simply found boring, got my utmost interest... I have to say, that this really shows a talent of a great writer. Just to view such things, to makes them present and visible, this really shows how much potential you have. Cause it's really hard to make it this way, despite what others think.
I have this habit, that while I read a FF I underline the parts that I find the best, it's either witty dialogs, responses, interesting situations and descriptions and any parts that I on my part find quite inventive, outstanding, or just simply well written. It would surprise you how many parts are underlined in your work.
I will buy your book, if you ever have one. Without any hesitation. It would be worth solely for your deep psychological insight.
I was wondering if you ever thought of it, if you tried to think of any story yourself.
Unfortunately there are no such sites in which people can post their own stories, mostly cause of the author's rights that could be violated. A pity though… I'm sure many people could discover their gifts this way…
But coming back to "Snivellus and the Head Girl", I'm always full of fear considering the great FF works, that one day the author just stops continue writing them. It takes so much time and work, after all. I really hope you'll have the strength and determination to finish this FF without the need to let it down in the middle.
And I really hope that you'll try to write something by yourself.
Be assured that I and all your fans on Mugglenet and FanFictionNet will continue to support you and keep reading this great fanfiction till the very end. I'm sure that no one is able to stop doing so, after getting familiar with this fantastic story.
Keep writing, and have a lot of fun doing it,
With kind regards,
WOW. You are truly an AMAZING writer. I can totally imagine all of this--and you do a great job depicting the characters!
Yay update!! Release the Mongoose!!!.
Please kill the marauders
I'm enjoying this story and can't wait to read what comes next. :)
Yaaaaaay A new installment of my favorite fanfic. This was a good transition chapter. I am sure many at Hogwarts would wonder why James Potter, of all people, would be selected as Head Boy. You have explained well the dearth of talent in the upper years of the school. Also I like seeing the story from James's POV----but don't give us too much of that. You do have to give James credit for some talents. He is popular with some students, certainly has athletic and academic skills, but assumes that everything will come to him. His bullying probably caused more by his privileged life and thoughtlessness, rather than a basic meanness and recklessness. Good for James to finally realize that he has to change his attitudes
