"The whole experience was great, especially being someone who is not keen on having their photo taken. I felt very relaxed throughout. The pictures were fab, so hard to decide what to order - I could have had them all!"
Mr Schofield
"We didn't know what to expect, but our photographer was brilliant with the children and got a lot out of them, which was good."

This light, fragrant Nebbiolo has zesty cherry-skin flavors deepened by savory earth and sausage meat tones. It's firm and smoky, intriguingly long in its gentle flavor. A classic match for agnolotti del plin.

Found July 11, 2013 on Start 'N' Park Blog:
PLAYERS: Denny Hamlin, Kasey Kahne, Martin Truex, Jr.
Daytona Recap: Denny Hamlin led 20 laps in Saturday night's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona International Speedway but was involved in a pair of late-race, multi-car incidents to finish 36th in the 161-lap event won by Jimmie Johnson. Hamlin qualified 24th in the #11 FedEx Ground Toyota but quickly moved into the top-10 on Daytona's high-banked oval. During the first series of pit stops, however, Hamlin was blocked in after a two-tire stop, and elected to take left-side rubber and return in 34th. Proving to be one of the strongest cars on the track, Hamlin drove through the field to take the lead on Lap 73 and paced the field until Lap 92. Seven laps later, Hamlin tangled with Martin Truex Jr. on the front straightaway and sustained damage to the right side of the #11 machine. The FedEx crew repaired the car on the pit road and returned to the track one lap down. Hamlin received the 'Lucky Dog' during a caution on Lap 128, and was right back in the mix to compete for the win. Unfortunately, Hamlin was again involved in a multi-car accident on the fronstretch and suffered heavy damage to the car, ending the team's night early. The finish dropped Hamlin one spot to 26th in the NASCAR standings following Daytona. New Hampshire Preview: The Series heads north to New Hampshire Motor Speedway and one of the FedEx Racing Team's best tracks on the NASCAR circuit. Hamlin was victorious the last time he raced at the one-mile track, leading 193 of 300 laps in the Chase race last September en route to victory lane. In that race, Hamlin qualified 32nd but drove to the lead by Lap 91 and never looked back. In the July race at New Hampshire, Hamlin's car was just as dominant, leading nearly half (150 of 301) the laps. However, a miscommunication on pit road saw Hamlin take four tires while the majority of lead lap cars took just two, putting Hamlin in 13th for the final restart. He drove on a mission, picking off cars to the front, but ran out of time to chase down eventual winner Kasey Kahne. The FedEx team settled for second. Hamlin has 10 top-10 finishes in 14 career starts at New Hampshire, including a pair of wins (July 2007 and September 2012). He has completed all but two laps (4,166 of 4,168), leading 417. FedEx Office – Closest to New Hampshire Motor Speedway: 10 Ft. Eddy Rd., Concord, NH 03301, (603) 226-0565 Rochester, N.Y. Along for the Ride in Loudon: The FedEx Freight service center in Rochester, N.Y., will be recognized for outstanding performance with its 'ROC' code letters on the b-post of the #11 FedEx Freight Toyota this weekend at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. ROC provides both FedEx Freight® Priority and FedEx Freight® Economy services throughout western New York and to and from Canada. How will the FedEx team approach this weekend's race in New Hampshire? "Obviously, it's a race that we think we can win and our approach now is to go out and win as many races as we can. We were probably the strongest car at both New Hampshire races last year, but we didn't make it easy on ourselves. Winning these races is so hard because of so many great teams, that we have to make sure we're on our game from practice to qualifying and the race. It'll be interesting to see how these new cars will be this weekend, but I'm confident we'll have a fast FedEx Freight Camry and hopefully we can compete for the win." -FedEx Racing PR

Now I know that the saying "Time flies when you're having fun" is true! I can't believe that it's mid January. We are preparing for a horse show on the 22nd, and there has been a LOT of progress made in my riding.
Since I moved Falcao down to Sonoita, it takes me basically a minimum of 4 hours for the commute, ride, clean up and return home. That takes a HUGE chunk from my day. And I do this 4-5 days a week! I am also still working out with Karen. Usually I ride first, then drive to the gym rather than going home after riding. It makes me tired, but the riding clothes are growing loose, and the tight jeans look really good on now.
The incredible progress we've made in my riding has fueled my motivation to continue to lose weight. It seems that I daily gain more control over what my body does on the horse, and I am fighting the physics less.
I got into a bit of sugar today, but the spree ended quickly, and I think it may have been a calorie deficit. I'll have to run my numbers to be sure.
Here's to a better, more fit me!!!
The clinic was a long week, but oh my, I can't believe how much I have learned.
My eating was either way under or right on spec, so I guess it hasn't been a bad week. I am stiff from all the exercise. 7 lessons in 5 days!
I can't believe that it was me riding at the end. We are almost ready to move up a level, and I understand how important my core is in this sport. I used it a LOT!
Today will be less hectic. Some grocery shopping to get the ingredients for the dish I'm making for a pot luck, then a luncheon with friends and my new fridge gets delivered this afternoon. Busy day, but not much in the way of exercise. But I need that!
It started out innocently enough. COntinuing with the shoulder in work, some canter work. Then she had me canter and do a flying change. No problem, we've done them before. Another diagonal, change, THEN ANOTHER on the same diagonal, and another! We did it! Cool! It was fun, but hard to control where my body should be vs where it wanted to be. We continued in this vein for a while, and added half pass (forward and sideways), then prouettes.
Phew! I hae a lot of work to be able to say that I'm proficient at these moves, but I can honestly say now that I have done them, and had good moments with them. I really enjoyed the ride, and I know Falcao did.
Today we are working in the double bridle, which is the "big girl's" bridle, as it is used in the upper levels. We'll work on much of the same stuff as yesterday.
The problem I had yesterday was eating wise. But not the way it normally is. I didn' t eat enough for the day without the exercise. Problem was that I just wasn't that hungry. Go figure! Today I'll add a protein bar after I ride and make sure I get a good lungh before. Maybe even dessert after dinner. What a strange dilemna to be in!
Me, undereat???? Naaaah! Oh, well.
All I can say is "WOW!"
I've ridden with this teacher before and always been a little puddle when she was done with us. Don't get me wrong, I was tired when we finished, but now washed out. A BIG difference from early last year when I rode with her.
Falcao was really good, and worked well. I am hopeful for tomorrow as we are doing 2 rides each day this weekend. It'll be a challenge, but today makes me hopeful.
I am headed off to bed soon. It's been a day that started at 4:15 this morning at 24 degrees. By ride time it was up to 50. Tomorrow will be more civilized time wise.
Have a great weekend, y'all!!
Since my fall 7 weeks ago, I have come to realize how much I owe to myself to finish this journey and give myself time to do things that I enjoy.
I hae moved Falcao down to Sonoita, and this means a minimum of a half day each time I go down to ride. THis cuts down on my computer time. But we are both very happy down there, and there is even room for us to take a trail ride whenever we want without trailering somewhere. There is a mirror at the end of the arena so that I can check myself as I ride and improve.
I am resigning as leader of my 50+ team. I am sad to say that I cannot devote the time to this wonderful team that they deserve. I have been MIA a lot lately due to a computer crash and the change in barns.
I feel better knowing that I now have time to do what I need to do without the guild of knowing I am neglecting a section of my responsibilities.
My eating habits have changed drastically. I have noticed that in the last couple of weeks. I am not eating to be eating, and am getting picky in what I will eat. If I don't want anything that's available for a meal, I won't eat, and will find something I want or is more suitable. This is a HUGE change from "It's noon, it's time to eat!" point of view. I am also beginning to see this person in some mirrors that I don't always recognize as me. It's cool.
I am continuing to work out, ride, and quilt. It's almost time to drive to Sonoita for a ride. It'll be chilly, but a lot of fun. We're headed into a 5-day riding clinic this weekend, and I can guarantee you that Falcao and I will be puddles by the time it's over. We'll both need time off!
Take care my friends. There is no harm in putting yourself first. There is not harm in proritizing your responsibilities, and shedding some to give yourself time to maintain a beautiful you. THIS has been the hardest lesson to learn.
I am staying with SP, but only as a regular member like most of you. Thanks, y'all for your support so far!!!

A Muscatine lawmaker is trying to ensure pregnant women don't lose their jobs if they're forced to stop working due to their condition.
Democratic Sen. Chris Brase has sponsored a measure that was approved this week by the Senate Local Government Committee and now awaits a vote on the Senate floor.
It would require that employers follow the medical recommendations of a pregnant employee's physician and make reasonable accommodations to enable the worker to stay on the job.
Unlike current law, employers couldn't force workers to use up state or federally mandated temporary medical leave, even if they can't perform all their regular duties
Brase says the intention is to let pregnant women remain at work by giving them less strenuous duties.
The Iowa Association of Business opposes the bill.

Fire wants to add another offensive threat to help Mike Magee
BY SETH GRUEN For Sun-Times Media June 14, 2013 10:51PM
Los Angeles Galaxy v Toronto FC
Updated: July 16, 2013 6:32AM
The Fire's offense has experienced a revival the last two weeks, but the front office knows it must continue to score off the field.
Forward Mike Magee has provided a quick fix for an offense that was shut out in six of 11 games before his arrival. But the team can't rely on one player for long.
With the Fire off for the weekend, the decision-makers will have an ideal opportunity to evaluate the team ahead of the summer transfer window, which opens July 9.
"We're very actively looking to see if there's an opportunity to bring in a player that can help us get better," Fire president of soccer operations Javier Leon said. "I think the focus would be in trying to bring someone more on the offensive side because I think we still need to find a way to score more goals."
That won't be an easy task, but the Fire has a versatile roster, which gives Leon leeway to cast a wider net.
If the Fire is to go after another striker to pair with Magee, coach Frank Klopas can move Chris Rolfe back to the midfield.
Since rejoining the Fire in the middle of last season, Rolfe has played as a striker in a 4-4-2 setup, as a withdrawn striker and in all three attacking midfield positions.
Most recently, in the Fire's 2-1 victory over the Columbus Crew in the fourth round of the U.S. Open Cup, Rolfe started as a striker but was moved to outside midfield after Klopas made a substitution to push the tempo.
Rolfe looked comfortable at the position and has trained there this season. Also, Rolfe's ability to break down defenders one-on-one as an outside midfielder would help stretch out opposing back lines and open up the middle for players such as Magee.
"He gives us flexibility because he's played out wide, and he's a guy that likes to cut in, and he's pretty dynamic and dangerous," Klopas said. "I just think he gives us flexibility. With most of our guys, they're able to play in different spots."

Fight leads to gunshots in Henniker
Joseph L. Wilcox, 51, of Sutton, was charged with attempted aggravated assault. His bail was set at $25,000 cash. He faces arraignment Monday morning.
Jeffrey B. Wigsten, 47, of Henniker, was arrested and charged with simple assault. He was bailed on $2,500 cash and has a March 5 court date.
Wigsten allegedly assaulted Wilcox in the parking lot of the Gin Gin Restaurant off Maple Street, leading Wilcox to pull out a handgun and discharge it towards Wigsten, authorities said.
A police officer parked nearby heard the sound of gunfire and saw witnesses yelling for someone to call police about a man with a gun around 12:15 a.m. The officer found Wilcox kneeling down with a handgun lying to his side, police said. In the distance stood Wigsten, who was standing behind a car for cover, according to police.
The Henniker Police Department are asking anybody with information to call the department at 428-3213 or the Concord Regional Crimeline at 226-3100.

Shot in Chicago: Movies that capture the spirit of the city
Tim here, rejoicing over the fact that our good host Nathaniel is in my very own Chicago this weekend – we have a movie night planned tomorrow! – and to celebrate, I wanted to showcase some of my city's best and most dubious moments in the cinematic spotlight. Therefore:
Three Chicago-based movies that truly "get" the city
(no documentaries; that would be cheating, no matter how much Hoop Dreams and The Interrupters are 100% essential Chicago movies)
Mickey One (1965)
The film that Warren Beatty and director Arthur Penn made right before Bonnie and Clyde is even more besotted with the French New Wave, but stylistic excess doesn't get in the way of a really special hyper-naturalistic depiction of the city streets as they existed almost half a century ago. I cannot, of course, speak to the veracity of what's onscreen, but the film's documentary aspects shine through even under the sordid thriller aspects of the plot and Penn's fractured filming style. Of all the classic movies filmed in Chicago – and there are a few – none do such a great job of suggesting what the neighborhoods looked like way back when, before building and gentrification made their mark.

DEFINITION of 'Exercise'
To put into effect the right specified in a contract. In options trading, the option holder has the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell the underlying instrument at a specified price on or before a specified date in the future. If the holder decides to buy or sell the underlying instrument (rather than allowing the contract to expire worthless or closing out the position), he or she will exercise the option, and make use of the right available in the contract.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Exercise'
In options trading, the buyer (or holder) of a call contract may exercise his or her right to buy the underlying shares at the specified price (the strike price); the buyer of a put contract may exercise his or her right to sell the underlying shares at the agreed-upon price. If the buyer chooses to exercise the option, he or she must inform the option seller (the writer of the option contract). This is achieved through an exercise notice, the broker's notification that a client wishes to exercise his or her right to buy or sell the underlying security. The exercise notice is forwarded to the option seller via the Options Clearing Corporation. Even though the buyer has the right but not the obligation to exercise the option, the seller is obligated to fulfill the terms of the contract if the buyer decides to exercise the option.
The majority of options contracts are not exercised, but instead are allowed to expire worthless or are closed by opposing positions. For example, an option holder can close out a long call or put prior to expiration by selling it (assuming the contract has market value). If an option expires unexercised, the holder no longer has any of the rights granted in the contract. In addition, the holder loses the premium that was paid for the option, along with any commissions and fees related to its purchase.

I wasn't a big fan of Xen, probably because I'm not a good jumper. There was a Half-Life 2 mod called Transitions that allowed players to visit Xen again with updated textures but it wasn't that popular, probably because the start required you to do nothing for a little while.
One silly problem with these poll questions that if I am not careful the actual question becomes too long. In this case I really wanted to ask whether the player wants to visit the Combine world or at least one of the other worlds it controls. That has gotta be a possibility for HL4, don't you think. In EP3 Gordon saves the world and HL4 he takes the fight to the own world. I suppose a little like Battlefield Earth. I am digressing again.
Let's keep it simple and say that GF has an opportunity to go back to Xen in Episode Three, is that something you would enjoy?
I'd rather run around Combine citadels or other human style locations, but what about you?

Oh please, no, no, no.
Xen has no place in HL2 or 3 or 4 or whatever
(Hey, what happened to the font?)
Xen had it's place in it's time (for some) but no place now in a more sophisticated gaming community.
Jumping as part of an escape or to achieve a target is fine (as in chapter 1 Random Quest) at least the platforms keep still.
Jumping just for the sake of jumping is mightily tedious
More but evolved Combine, Combine Hardware and the denizens of Ravenholme. Or something new, let's not go backwards.
Well said. Ravenholm. That's far more useful, fun and interesting than "Xen".
I guess it could be a more advanced Xen, seeing as how we're still not 100% sure about the Combine's origins, nor what they've been up to in the rest of the universe while trying to hold onto the Earth……
I voted "Yes" even though, like the previous commenters I'm not that bothered about the long jumps and so on, but another world altogether would be even better. Perhaps the Combine Over-Planet or something.
I do wish they'd hurry it up a bit though!
Oh yes please. I miss the eeriness, the uncertainty, the organic landscapes. But it should be a short visit, just for old times" sake and to tie up the whole Half-Life arc.
Why not?
Xen has never been the highlight of HL1, but it was a good finale. By the time you reached it you felt so far away from the humble beginnings of the game… what a trip!
As some of the other posters said, I rather interpret the question as "Would you like to visit an alien landscape again?" Especially if it would be something totally new, unlike Xen, even, the answer is definitely yes! But yea, I'd rather see a short trip than one whole episode spent on floaty, alien platforms.
From what we've seen so far, that's not very likely. Episode 3 will probably explore more of an arctic setting, a ship, and generally some of the places cut from HL2 (Borealis, Kraken Base, maybe even the Air Exchange bits -> http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Borealis ).
I'd like to see what the "Next-Gen" version of Xen is, so yes.
Yep I would love it to go back to XEN. The original Half-Life1 XEN levels weren't my favourites.
But I really liked the XEN levels made by Gearbox. Blue Shift, Decay, Opposing Force.
I would also love it to see a comeback of Sheppard. Well most unlikely still I would love it.
Dunno… Xen was kinda annoying at times in the original Half-Life. Anyway, it would be cool to see how this alien world looks like in a revamped Source engine.
PS: I love the new look of PP
If Valve made Xen again, they'd do it a lot better, so yeh, i'd like to see it again. Save some Vorts from the clutches of GMan.
I would visit Xen only if it involves teletransportion or if humans have built devices, like in Blue Shift(For me, that was the best Xen).
It would depend on how it's handled, but I said yes.
The fun thing is that Xen is a totally alien environment, giving way to new unusual gameplay possibilities.
I liked Xen in Half-Life, but I think the newer games should go in an opposite direction. I think I'll get my Xen fix from Black Mesa.
No way. Even with all the exploration provided, Xen could be more useful if there really was something special added to it. Again, why not? It isn't frustration but rather an "appetite" already covered with Xen curiosities. SURE!!! There is more to see, but not for me babe.
No. It doesn't fit into the story. Xen was – as far as I know – conquered by the combine shortly after the events of HL1. The Black Mesa Mod can present Xen in a new shiny way. But then not again…
If they could pull off making Xen relevant to the story, as well as giving us some new and interesting sorts of places on Xen to visit, I would have no problem with a few Xen levels in a future HL game. The thing is that I don't think they could make a Xen level fit into the story at this point, but I may be wrong about that.
I will admit, though, I've always wondered what an antlion colony on Xen would look like. It would be pretty cool to see them in their natural habitat, as opposed to just wandering around abandoned mine shafts.
YES YES YESSS!!! but it would have to be uniquer than hl1.
Sure, I'd like to see Xen back! Now that we have Xenian allies, it's good to have shelter in a different world. I wonder if we'll be here in Human Error 2?

Antibiotics in food animals: A practice that gives bugs a head start
THE BUGS are smarter than we
And so we get the news stories--salmonella outbreaks, E. coli scares, and MRSA eruptions. Last year, about 70,000 Americans died from drug-resistant bacterial infections. To stem the tide, the FDA and Congress are looking to ban routine use of antibiotics in animal feedlots. Is this a slap in the face of agribusiness or a needed restriction?
Fully 70 percent of the antibiotics sold in the U.S. today are used in healthy food animals. Why? The drugs promote growth and prevent widespread disease in crowded, unsanitary factory farms. After 40 years of study, however, scientists worry that this widespread use is encouraging the proliferation of resistant bacteria and the related diseases in humans.
One example: Campylobacteria found in poultry can cause intestinal upset and has been linked to Guillain-Barre syndrome, which can cause paralysis. Resistant strains were not common in the United States until after the use of fluoroquinolones, a type of antibiotic, gained approval for use in food animals. Recognizing the link, the FDA in 2005 banned them for veterinary use.
Like everything these days, though, the subject is controversial: Dr. Frederick Angulo of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said, in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, "There is scientific consensus that antibiotic use in food animals contributes to resistance in humans." Agribusiness vets, however, disagree. "[C]ontrary to the opponents of modern food-animal production, antibiotics are not being given excessively to pigs and cattle, and their use in livestock production is not the likely cause for an increase in antibiotic resistance in humans," writes Dr. Howard Hill, a director of the National Pork Producers Council.
So is overuse of antibiotics in food animals hurting us? To be sure, over-prescribing antibiotics in humans is a much larger cause for concern. Nevertheless, most independent research also fingers the routine application of these drugs in agribusiness.
Nontherapeutic use of antibiotics gives bugs a head start we humans can't afford. They're just too smart, these mutating micro-monsters--too smart for our own good.

The complexity of today's applications have gone far and beyond the capabilities of "traditional" system-level monitoring tools and approaches and requires much broader knowledge of business and applications as a whole. The goal of DevOps is to connect all aspects of app...

When an enterprise builds a hybrid IaaS cloud connecting its data center to one or more public clouds, security is often a major topic along with the other challenges involved. Security is closely intertwined with the networking choices made for the hybrid cloud. Traditional networking approaches for building a hybrid cloud try to kludge together the enterprise infrastructure with the public cloud. Consequently this approach requires risky, deep "surgery" including changes to firewalls, subnets...

It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, a...

There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happe...
