Goodwood Revival
8-10 September 2017
General Goodwood Revival information
The Goodwood Revival is the world's most popular motor race meeting and the only event of its kind to be staged in the romantic time capsule of the Fifties and Sixties. As well as recreating the golden era of motor sport, the Revival offers exceptional wheel-to-wheel racing around a classic circuit, untouched by the modern world.
The Revival relives the glory days of Goodwood Motor Circuit, which ranked alongside Silverstone as Britain's leading racing venue throughout its active years between 1948 and 1966. During this time, it hosted contemporary racing of all kinds, including Formula One, the famous Goodwood Nine Hours race and the celebrated Tourist Trophy sports car race.
Now, for three days each September, the circuit stages a historic race meeting for the kind of cars and motorcycles that would have competed at Goodwood during 1948-1966. The circuit echoes to the spine-tingling bark of golden-age Grand Prix cars from the Fifties and Sixties, thundering sports and GT cars, as well as historic saloon cars and little-seen Formula Juniors. Many of these important historic racing cars are driven by famous faces from motor sport past and present. Sir Stirling Moss, John Surtees, Sir Jack Brabham, Phil Hill, Derek Bell, David Coulthard, Damon Hill, Gerhard Berger, Johnny Herbert, Wayne Gardner, Giacomo Agostini and the late, great Barry Sheene have all taken part at the Revival.
But the Revival is far more than a series of races for historic cars: it is a magical step back in time and a chance for visitors to revel in the romance and theatre of motor racing as it used to be. The lovingly restored circuit is unchanged from its heyday, and great lengths are taken to ensure that everything on the site is exactly as it was. This means that many visitors wear appropriate period clothing and no modern vehicles are allowed within the circuit perimeter throughout the weekend. There are also theatrical sets that bring the past back to life.
This is the only event that places motor racing into a carefully choreographed historical backdrop. The result is a truly unforgettable experience, and an atmosphere unlike any other sporting event. In combination with the highly-acclaimed Festival of Speed, the Revival ensures that Goodwood offers a medley of motor sport delights unrivalled throughout the world.

(EPI) Echo planar imaging is one of the early magnetic resonance imaging sequences (also known as Intascan), used in applications like diffusion, perfusion, and functional magnetic resonance imaging. Other sequences acquire one k-space line at each phase encoding step. When the echo planar imaging acquisition strategy is used, the complete image is formed from a single data sample (all k-space lines are measured in one repetition time) of a gradient echo or spin echo sequence (see single shot technique) with an acquisition time of about 20 to 100 ms.
The pulse sequence timing diagram illustrates an echo planar imaging sequence from spin echo type with eight echo train pulses. (See also Pulse Sequence Timing Diagram, for a description of the components.)
In case of a gradient echo based EPI sequence the initial part is very similar to a standard gradient echo sequence. By periodically fast reversing the readout or frequency encoding gradient, a train of echoes is generated.
EPI requires higher performance from the MRI scanner like much larger gradient amplitudes. The scan time is dependent on the spatial resolution required, the strength of the applied gradient fields and the time the machine needs to ramp the gradients.
In EPI, there is water fat shift in the phase encoding direction due to phase accumulations. To minimize water fat shift (WFS) in the phase direction fat suppression and a wide bandwidth (BW) are selected. On a typical EPI sequence, there is virtually no time at all for the flat top of the gradient waveform. The problem is solved by "ramp sampling" through most of the rise and fall time to improve image resolution.
The benefits of the fast imaging time are not without cost. EPI is relatively demanding on the scanner hardware, in particular on gradient strengths, gradient switching times, and receiver bandwidth. In addition, EPI is extremely sensitive to image artifacts and distortions.

Years in the making and now upon us with as much fanfare as Cambridge University Press can muster, The Cambridge Companion to Baseball is the most concentrated baseball book ever: a medium-sized book that contains everything you'd ever need to know about baseball. No less an authority than Jim Bouton (my own nominee for greatest baseball writer, ever) calls it "the perfect companion," and if you disagree with him I'll have to ask you to step outside.
Official publication date of The Cambridge Companion to Baseball is April 7th, but you can order it now from the homepage of this website.

Club History
The club was established in 1929 by a group of First World War veterans living in Assiniboia, who approached the municipality for a grant to start a curling club. The first facility was built on the east side of Banting Street behind the museum building across from Superstore (re-location of the Club to its current 940 Vimy Road location was completed in 1962). The first directors were Frank Ness, Tom Corbett, H. Hunt, D. Ballantyne and R.R. Kirby.
The club was established as a war memorial hence the name, Assiniboine Memorial.
Our 50th Anniversary history book (published in 1979) has been posted online. Click here to view in your browser.
New for November, 2017: Our 75th Anniversary dinner program has been posted online (thank you to Greg Daly for bringing it to our attention and loaning us his copy). Click here to view in your browser.
Quote from the 50th anniversary program:
"Assiniboine Memorial Curling Club carries the pride of honouring these men and all others who fought for freedom in World War I and II. We are mindful of the task we have undertaken and endeavor to carry out our curling in a friendly and sportsmanlike manner. We are proud of them; we hope they would have been proud of us."
Club colours were originally set as green and gold, but Wildewood had already selected those colours, so they changed them to White and Purple. In 1973 the club switched to gold with purple trim.
Current Logo
A contest was held to design the logo. It was sent to all the local schools and a design was selected. It is a man wearing a Scottish tam.

Trex World, Part 31Submitted by kelson.philo on Thu, 08/23/2007 - 16:39.
Paul's face brought more attention than his run-in with yesterday morning's terrorist event. Standing outside the local hospital wing, the skylight felt harsh, domineering. Checking the time, he found himself to be in the middle of a shift change, he'd have to wade through about a million or so eddies of humanity to get home. A long walk was ahead of him. One positive, people actually got out of his way, if only to bring their trex's into focus range. Why all this publicity couldn't score him some raisins, Paul didn't know.

He awoke to see the visage of the Detective glaring down at him. "Idiot," she intoned.
"Good to see you toof, detectif. Fleebus Marley, waffs wrong wiff me."
"That's something I'd like to know, truth be told. You're on assignment, Paul. I should have you retired for obstruction of justice."

Dialing up a tea timer to keep track of his allowed time remaining in the bathroom, Paul pushed through the ultra-wide entrance and had the place to himself. Of course he did, he was out of sync with the whole floor. Stepping up to the urinal he maneuvered his trex in front of him so it would be hidden, just in case anyone bounded through the door. There was, however, a problem.

Paul was putting in multiple "Requests for Break-time" e-forms as fast as he could hit the submit button. No responses from his super, but no indicator on the messenger profile that he was away, either. And no easy way out of his cube, not now. When he had met with Noel, the chair responded to his trex file and indexed it with the time he was supposed to be at work. This would only happen again when it was time to quit his shift. Until then, getting out of your seat was a matter for your supervisor to consider.
Trex World, Part 27Submitted by kelson.philo on Fri, 07/13/2007 - 16:45.
It was the third week after Paul's mom died by her own hand that the incident occurred. A real busy-body of an AA had stormed into his corner office-space demanding the heads of two of his MLAs for some screw-up that wouldn't have occurred if the AA had stuck to procedure instead of letting himself get bullied by the customer, a rather self-important editor of Expanse politick feeds. Miscommunication occurred and a whole slew of wrong styles got sent out, resulting in a number of said editor's feed archives being significantly different than what went out live; an embarrassing, though ultimately harmless mistake, as only the style of the feed was affected and not the content itself.

Tickity-takky wikity-wakki that was the only sound one heard on the prep floor. Every industry, whether churned out by one person or a multitude, involved in effective production develops over time their own jargon, their own way of calling reality into being.

Paul blinked again. Geoff cocked his head to one side. A moment peeled itself like onion skin and passed.
"I think you're going to have to work through lunch today, Paul."
Zip. Zap. Zorbit. Neurons were in spasm directly behind Paul's right eye. He started walking towards Floor 23's portal. "I'm sorry Geoff," he started to say as fast as he could, "But I really need to get to my desk. I've been late a lot recently, you know…"
Trex World, part 24Submitted by kelson.philo on Mon, 05/21/2007 - 16:24.
The trouble being, of course, that Paul's day was far from optimum. His trex was purring along fine now. His left palm was sweating from holding an object in a place where objects were forbidden.
"Yes, well, 'Hi' is about all I've got for you right now, Geoff. Sorry."

You guys know I'm a fan of drinking around the world at Disney's Epcot just as much as one would image an adult ThemeParkHipster would be.
However, there have been times at Epcot where the Epcot Twilight Zone begins right before the sun is about to set.
It's a time in the evening where adults change from docile human beings to playful big kids doped up on cotton candy.
The only problem is that it's not cotton candy.
The culprit?
Today we are going to the most magical place on earth, Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom Theme Park. I want to show you some of my Magic Kingdom must do's when I visit the park.
Now that you've decided to take the leap and live out your theme park adventures alone, it's time to make the most of your trip. Everyone has tips out there for the average theme park goer, but what about you (the solo theme park hopper)? Let's look at ways to outline your solo trip.
Theme park hopping alone?
You're probably thinking that there's a misprint on the title of this article. There are so many tips and tricks on the web about globetrotting alone, but hardly anything to guide someone interested in going to a theme park unaccompanied.
Summertime in Florida is like no other state, especially for theme park goers. If you're a resident of an area that experiences all four seasons with mild summers, then you will definitely be taken aback by the hot, humid, indescribable weather that Florida is known for.
You've decided to brave the Florida heat and stand uncomfortably close to other Potterheads during the Diagon Alley grand opening celebration. Well don't worry about it. You are not alone. I will also be in the number plotting ways to get as close to the front of the line as I possibly can. The #Potterwatch phenomenon, which started back in 2010 with the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, is once again in full effect for Diagon Alley.
The birds, the bees, and most importantly the full bellies are all things to be expected while conquering the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival. You will find me there in the midst of the colorful garden creations, the vivacious seminar hosts, and the consuming cocktails in true honor of the Mouse from March 5th -May 18th.

Meet the team - Debbie Crookes
Date: Thursday, March 08, 2018
Another fortnight has gone by which means another catch up with a member of our One to One Support Services team! Today we caught up with Lead Childcare Tutor and IQA Debbie Crookes!
Debbie joined our team just over 2 years ago, her specialist area is Childcare. This became her specialist area as she worked as a self-employed childminder for around 13 years.After this she became a supervisor in a private Montessori daycare nursery, caring for children from birth to 2 years of age.
She says the best part about her role at One to One is meeting people and watching them develop whilst working on their qualifications, seeing how much they learn and sharing her knowledge with them to help them along the way.
If Debbie was to give one piece of advice to someone looking to work in the sector it would be: "One to One is a good company to work for opportunities for progression are identified and support and training is available to help with this."
Client's Feedback

Yes, Brett Hearn did indeed win the the overall Mr. DIRT crown for 2013 by finishing ninth in Tuesday's rescheduled Stars and Stripes 100 for DIRT big-block modifieds at Rolling Wheels Raceway Park in Elbridge.
The Mr. DIRT title goes to the driver with the best 16 race finishes from April 1 to Sept. 1. Those finishes can come in races at weekly venues or at Super DIRTcar Series races.
The initial report on syracuse.com about the race late Tuesday night mentioned this fact, but after several calls stating Hearn had not won the crown, the story was adjusted.
A call to Super DIRT Week VP Chris Dolack confirmed that Hearn did win the title.
The Super DIRTcar Series is ongoing and concludes at Charlotte, N.C., in November.

Energy Survey
1. Decide what you need from the refrigerator before opening the door. This saves energy by keeping the amount of time the door is open as short as possible.
3. Keep doors to the outside closed when the heating or air conditioning is on. Each time you open a door while the heating or cooling system is operating, a lot of expensive heated or cooled air escapes. That's why it helps to close them quickly when you come in or go out of the house.
6. Learn where in your home the thermostat is located, and check the temperature setting with the help of an adult. In the winter, the thermostat should be set at the lowest temperature that keeps the house comfortable. Many recommend trying to keep it at 68°F or lower. In the summer, it should be set at the highest comfortable setting. Try for 78°F while you are home, and set it higher or turn it off when gone for the day.

To my darling daughter. My eldest bear.
Tomorrow you begin Preschool.
The start of many years in the education system. (Sorry!)
You are nervous. Which is understandable. I am too.
I know that you will be more than fine once you get into the swing of things. You always are. You are so like me in that respect; you build things up in your head to how you think they might be, but once you get there, once you realise everything is fine, then you relax and you will enjoy your time.
I know you will thrive in the Preschool environment.
You are such a friendly little soul who wants to be "best friends" with everyone you meet. You include everyone in your games. Even your pesky little brother who enjoys antagonising you.
You are so intelligent. We've deemed you our "Renaissance child". Your mad skills in art. Your love for reading. Your excitement for maths.
Your imagination never fails to astound me. As does your memory!
You will learn so much. You will love to learn so much. You are a glorious sponge who thrives on new information.
I can't wait to pick you up and ask you about your day. To hear what you have learnt. To see your art creations. To meet your new friends.
I sit here, writing this, remembering the day you arrived. I'm not sure where that time has passed. Almost four years since you plopped onto the bed (the Midwife didn't catch you in time!) on a chilly December day.
Looking out over Brighton and the sea, holding you in my arms, I never really thought ahead to the future. I never thought about this bittersweet moment where I would be both excited for the next part of your adventure, but sad that you are swiftly growing up and will soon be four… and then five… and then thirteen and screaming at me that life is "so unfair!"…
I worry about the world that we have brought you into. I worry about the world that you will be growing up in. I want to keep you safe in our family bubble a little bit longer. Keep you shielded from the unkindness, the sadness, the darkness in this world.
Preschool will open up a bit more of this world to you. Other children will say mean things. You will say mean things too. That's human nature. You will learn words that you may not have heard before (although I can be a little bit careless with some of these words, so you've probably heard a few of them!). You will meet people from all walks of the earth.
You will learn (even more so) that everyone is different. That everyone likes different things. But this is not a bad thing. Different is good.
You are already such an independent, clever little person, but I cannot wait to see how Preschool helps you progress intellectually and socially. I hope that you will learn not to follow the flock so much; to be brave enough to take your own path.
I hope that you will discover new books to tell me about on the way home.
And most of all, I hope that you will enjoy your time at Preschool. That you will relish your time there… Not so much that you don't want to leave at home time, but enough that you look forward to going in the morning.
Good luck my darling. I wish you a very happy Preschool experience, and I hope that it nourishes your zest for learning.

Xperia Z3 photos make the rounds on the Internet.
Over the last week or so, multiple photographs which allegedly portrays the Sony Xperia Z3 have been leaked online in Asia, one even shows the Xperia Z3 sized up against the Galaxy Note 3.
You might be wondering, why on earth Sony is launching a new device just months after Xperia Z2. Well, because there is a pattern (schedule) started way back when the Xperia Z was announced. The same year, but during fall, Sony announced Xperia Z1 (odd number), followed by Xperia Z2 in the first half of 2014 like the Z last year, and the Xperia Z3 (another odd number) this autumn. So, you see, there is a pattern.
Xperia Z3 is rumoured to feature a Quad HD display somewhere around 5 to 5.5-inch in diagonal, a Snapdragon 805 or something on 64-bit CPU, 3GB of RAM and 20.7MP rear-camera with G Lens.
Expect the Xperia Z3 to launch alongside its mini companion Xperia Z3 compact around IFA 2014, which will take place in Berlin like all previous years.

Comfort Foods to Choose & Lose on BT
Can comfort foods be healthy? There's a reason why we crave comfort foods in the cold weather. Comfort foods are generally full of carbs and fat, which can increase serotonin production in the brain, giving us a feeling of well-being. Food and mood are connected – add in the dark and cold days of fall and winter and you've got us reaching for something to warm us up and lift our moods.
However, reaching for a hearty warm meal doesn't mean you have to go overboard on calories and fat. Watch Rose on Breakfast Television for which comfort foods from your favourite restaurants to choose and lose!

"Issues on the federal website healthcare.gov are prompting Gov. Scott Walker to propose a delay in his plan for health care in the state.
The governor had proposed moving some 77,000 people off BadgerCare and onto insurance coverage purchased on the federal exchange to make room for other childless adults currently without insurance, all in lieu of a federal Medicaid expansion.
Thursday, Walker said his plan needed to wait."

Research projects as the theme at the IV Conference on Teaching Humanities in Secondary Education
The Faculty of Humanities recently organised the fourth edition of the Conference on Teaching Humanities in Secondary Education along with the Official Society of Doctors and Holders of Degrees in Philosophy and Literature of Catalonia.
This year's edition of the Conference was dedicated to research projects. More than 40 teachers from upper secondary education both in state and private schools shared their experiences and successful cases about how to guide students when they are undertaking a humanities research project.
Over the two day conference, the teachers had round tables and talks on topics such as: what a research project is and is not; research projects on philosophy or how to introduce research into literature and language classes, among others. On Saturday a project entitled Gust i Passió per Investigar was also presented, as well as the Arnau de Vilanova Concurso Preuniversitario de UIC Barcelona awards for research projects.

I sampled a number of dumplings during my three-week trip to Asia last month. One of them was a Sichuan specialty called Zhong jiaozi, which literally means Zhong's poached dumpling. The name doesn't say much for the dumpling, which is extraordinarily easy to prepare but the flavors are synergistic and wonderful.
Once back in the States, I looked through my bookshelves and tinkered in my kitchen until I could come up with a terrific version. These are a cinch. Use the basic dumpling dough made in the processor, roll out the wrappers, fill them and form half-moons (which look like crescents). Then poach them and you're done. A very satisfying Asian dumpling for the fall.
Visit Viet World Kitchen for the Sichuan crescent dumpling recipe.

Sunday Photo Fiction – Winter Storm
The weather forecast had been reporting all week that a storm was coming in and telling people to prepare for flooding as it was going to be heavy rain.
The trees had finished shedding their leaves and the drains were blocked with leaves but no one had thought about that.
So when the heavy rain started it didn't take long for the stream to start rising, the water couldn't escape through the outlets in the block waterways.
The banks had been built up a couple of months ago for flood protection but hadn't been finished.
Watching out the window as the rain started to get heavy and heavier, I was thinking that we should have been more prepared and maybe had a boat or something to use, in this first rain of the winter.
We needed to get out of here while we could before it was too late.
We had no idea where we were going but we were out of the house and into the car within a few minutes and off to higher country if we could get through.
As we rounded the corner we could see people running in every direction what was going on, then we saw it a wall of water coming down the hill the town's water dam had broken its walls, there was no place to go, even a boat wouldn't have helped.
There wasn't time to do anything, the water hit the car, there were people screaming, children crying, our car went with the force of the water as it hit us, and was swift up the side of a bank and got caught behind a large boulder and grounded itself, we were saved, but many more lost their lives.
Yes, when there is a weather warming that's very serious, take precautions to save human life, you won't regret it.
The idea of Sunday Photo Fiction is to create a story / poem or something using around about 200 words with the photo as a guide, I have far too many words, have removed some, but it's spoiling my story, so I will leave it, Sorry. Will do better next time.

Welcome Guys!
Thank you Suzukig. So On the first extension you get the ACR 1 card, do you have to pay for the yearly extensions' every 2 months like a tourist visa? Or is it a one off payment? I'm weighing up the costs compared to leaving and entering the country each year. The first time I stayed in the Philippines for a year I used the tourist visa route. I was unaware off the Balikbayan. The second time I stayed 6 months I used the Balikbayan. The ACR 1 card is pretty new to me as well. This is all in preparation for when we return for good in 6 years. At the moment we just have a months vacation and check up trip so it's no big deal.
Hi Chuck a bit off paperwork involved with the 13a visa, the fees aren't bad though, this is on a yearly renewal basis I presume? With the police clearance and NBI clearance, what transgressions would stop you getting the visa? All my misdemeanours were minor, considered minor and now classed as spent here.
I'm on a "13A" and my 5 year, ACR I-card is due renewal this coming August and we have to go to Intramuros BI HQ to do the biz.BI in Olongopo gave me the application form when I did the annual report in january and it seems as though I only need my passport and old ID card. Looks too simple a process to me. Has anyone renewed their 5 year ACR card lately? If so, what paperwork is required?TIA,Peter
After a year on the Balikbayan, do I have to pay for the ACR 1 card if I choose to extend my stay as allowed for an extra year?
I you are a former Filipino, why not do Requisition?

Wider adoption of electronic prescribing systems among healthcare providers could help reduce prescription drug abuse, according to experts speaking at a recent conference.
E-prescribing tools can limit drug diversion or "doctor shopping," and crack down on doctors who prescribe drugs for non-medical uses, CIO reports.
Only 2 percent of healthcare providers nationwide have adopted electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS) systems, the article notes. The rate at pharmacies is far higher, at 78 percent.
In 2010 the Drug Enforcement Administration authorized the use of EPCS systems. Every state except for Missouri has established a framework for e-prescribing, the article notes.
Many providers and some pharmacies still believe that e-prescribing is illegal, according to Miya Gray, Vice President of Surescripts, a health IT network. "There's still a lot of misinformation out there in the healthcare community about EPCS," she said.
Gray said several states have enacted laws or programs to encourage e-prescribing. New York's Internet System for Tracking Over-Prescribing of Controlled Substances, known as the I-STOP program, requires doctors and pharmacists to check the state's drug monitoring database before they prescribe opioids.
Justin Berhaupt, a former aide to New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman who helped draft the I-STOP law, told CIO, "E-prescribing stops diversion. Paper prescriptions are stolen, they're forged, they're upticked. Changing a 3 to an 8 was something we saw time and time again."

A collection of exemplary pieces about the movies that influenced contemporary filmmakers.
When the editor of the New York Times Weekend section wanted to expand film coverage, Lyman, the paper's Hollywood correspondent, suggested a series in which he joined famous actors, producers, and directors to watch the movies that shaped their lives. Lyman thereupon got together with the likes of Woody Allen, Kevin Costner, and Nicole Kidman to watch films such as (respectively) Shane, Cool Hand Luke, and The Shining. The results, collected here, range from predictable to surprising and are almost always insightful. Of course, John Travolta gets up and dances after watching Yankee Doodle Dandy, and, yes, Sissy Spacek chokes back a sob near the end of To Kill a Mockingbird. But Quentin Tarantino goes off course, finding depth in a Roy Rogers programmer, and producer Harvey Weinstein sees moments to admire in the largely flatfooted Exodus. In two of many pieces here that film students will value, Ron Howard applies a sharp director's eye to The Graduate, and Kevin Costner offers a keen actor's appraisal of Paul Newman's work in Cool Hand Luke. Curtis Hanson shows why In a Lonely Place merits another look. Director Kevin Smith wishes he could reach the level Fred Zinnemann achieved in A Man for All Seasons, while Wolfgang Peterson praises Zinnemann's High Noon. Lending cohesion to the collection is a theme the watchers reiterate: films from the late 1960s and '70s reflect work that was honest, original, and literate, qualities now missing in what Barry Levinson terms "a thin age for storytelling." Also pulling this all together is Lyman's lively prose. His cogent observations and smooth construction should encourage his college film teacher, who complained that the press wrote poorly about film.
Vivid takes form an impressive montage.


text: Eric Schaeffer's first movie, the microbudgeted My Life's in Turnaround (1993), was a sweet 'n' low docu-spoof that deserved praise for just getting made. But the former cabdriver's next two features produced the unmistakable sound of one hand clapping: If Lucy Fell and Fall made for the muckiest runoff of the mid-'90s Gen X romantic-comedy glut (theme song "Show Me Love [From an Ironic Distance]"). Brimming with fatuous "clever" dialogue and gorgeous women swooning over Schaeffer-played boors, the like-sounding titles denoted a vain, smarmy Woody Allen acolyte drowning in his own reflection. He plays, natch, the title character in his most Schaeffer-rific effort yet, the ambiguously autobiographical (and, per usual, sooty-lensed) Wirey Spindell, which finds the eponym's wheedling-sap fiancée (Callie Thorne) unwilling to walk the plank with her obnoxious, bullying groom until he can fix a problem of the upstairs-downstairs variety: seems Wirey can't have sex if he's in love. This crisis of faith spurs reflective flashbacks spanning his lonely childhood, drug-muddled adolescence, collegiate amour fou, and subsequent rehab; Wirey stumbles from self-pitying burnout to a Detective Sipowicz-esque balance of AA spirituality and guy's-guy vulgarity. Mounting a bildungsroman also affords Schaeffer a new opportunity for wish fulfillment in casting the fetching Eric Mabius as his college-age self, though the younger actor gives his director too much credit: Mabius's role is written as a jerk but not played like one.

There are several ways to sterilize your jars for canning. You can run them through a short cycle on your dishwasher. You can place them in a large pot (12 quart) of water on top of a steaming rack (so they don't touch the bottom of the pan), and bring the water to a boil for 10 minutes. Or you can rinse out the jars, dry them, and place them, without lids, in a 200°F oven for 10 minutes. I chose to put them in the water since I had to heat it up to can the puree anyway.
Pour the jam into hot, sterilized jars and seal. If you plan to store the apple butter un-refrigerated, make sure to follow proper canning procedures. Before applying the lids, sterilize the lids by placing them in a bowl and pouring boiling water over them. Wipe the rims of the jars clean before applying the lids. I use a hot water bath for 10 minutes to ensure a good seal. Now, enjoy that this process is finally over, and laugh at yourself for ever deciding to do it in the first place.

Do you love yummy BBQ? I know I sure do! Many of the reasons might have something to do with growing up in Huntsville, Alabama.
Slows BBQ is a little joint in downtown Detroit, Michigan. Amongst old factory buildings and the old Detroit train station, Slows is the perfect, classy restaurant amongst a city of history. This little place is in an area known as Corktown which was first settled by the Irish in the mid 1800s.
Slows BBQ is known for, of course, its yummy BBQ, but also its amazing selection of beer. These beer selections come from breweries through out Michigan, and it is one of the few places in Michigan that offers this collection. My selection tonight was the Founder's Red Rye. It was a medium malt, light, balanced with a hint of pineapple finish.
My selection of BBQ was The Mary-Ann Brisket with an amazing side of Mac-n-cheese. Slows is particularly famous for its savory, cheesy mac-n-cheese. It was the perfect side to the BBQ. The brisket was wet, tangy and smokey. The meat was tender and left an array of different flavors in your mouth. Now, I am usually pretty picky about my BBQ sauces; however, Slow's had an amazing Apple BBQ sauce. I have never had something like this in my life, but it was the perfect combination of sweet and savory.
Slows BBQ is a fun little place in old, historic downtown Detroit. The BBQ is amazing, and the beer selection is extensive. If you ever find yourself in this part of the US, I would highly recommend this little place.

Scope & Objectives:
With a deal on the EU'S 2030 climate and energy policies foreseen in October 2014, this conference drew on the results of the APRAISE project to assess how past experience in environmental policy making can contribute to more informed decisions for the future. In particular, the conference highlighted that climate and energy policies are not formulated within an isolated policy context but implemented in existing (market) systems. Improved understanding of these systems contributes to policy effectiveness and efficiency as it brings to the fore possible policy interactions and mechanisms behind long-term EU-wide targets. The conference drew on the APRAISE case studies in the area of renewable energy and energy efficiency policies, providing for a better understanding of the mechanisms of environmental policy and thus giving insights into how inefficiencies of environmental policy making can be reduced and target setting on the EU level improved.
APRAISE Final Conference Agenda
Session I - Wytze van der Gaast, JIN

Gan Basso was a male Duros pilot who worked as a hyperspace trailblazer in the early centuries after the founding of the Galactic Republic in 25,053 BBY. A daredevil pilot who lived for the thrill of adventure, Basso was often the first to volunteer for dangerous scouting missions. Among Basso's discoveries was the planet Ord Mantell in the Mid Rim. However, Basso's career and his life came to an end when his ship's hasty jump to hyperspace sent the starship into the sun of the Datar system.[1]
Behind the scenesEdit
Gan Basso was first mentioned in the 2012 reference guide Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia.[1]

Zenerx: Premium Male Enhancement
Zenerx is intended to help men of all ages regain their confidence by achieving a longer-lasting, rock-hard erection. The all natural mens enhancer is intended to increase blood flow to the penis employing a formula made from a proven blend of herbal ingredients documented to vastly improve sexual performance.
Gone are the nights of crippling self-doubt: with this product, men can eventually turn back the clock and satisfy their ladies with a fuller, firmer, concrete-like erection.
"I have been using Zenerex for a little while now, but what a difference it has made! The erections I'm having make me feel like me again," asserts another user.
The secret to Zenerx lies in its revolutionary all natural formula built to fill your penile chamber to top capacity.
Now Zenerxdoesn't just offer a firmer erection. The herbal formula inside each natural male enhancement capsule has been known to reinforce libido, increase the amount of personal ejaculate, and help you recapture your personal stamina.
But where Zenerx focuses on the hard science of longer-lasting erections, the competition simply fails to perform, sticking to advertising that tricks patrons with limp guarantees of increased penile length - a claim which has not been medically proven to occur with a pill.
Zenerxdeliberately does not contain Yohimbe, a popular male enhancement ingredient that, while somewhat effective, is shown to have dangerous complications like high blood pressure and panic attacks.
Instead, all natural Zenerx is designed with safety in mind to still be effective with ingredients like Tongkat Ali extract, a flowering herb that is known to improve sexual performance and increase testosterone levels.

THE BOY COMMANDOSOriginal Medium: Comic books
Published by: DC Comics
First Appeared: 1942
Creators: Joe Simon and Jack Kirby
Please contribute to its necessary financial support.

Comic books about kid gangs go back almost as far as comic books themselves. The first in English-language comics may have been Ball's Pond Banditi, which debuted in an 1893 issue of
Ally Sloper's Half Holiday. By the 1940s they were well established, and the leading lights of the genre in American comic books were the legendary team of Joe Simon and Jack Kirby.
By the middle of 1942, Simon and Kirby had already created The Young Allies for the company now known as Marvel Comics, and The Newsboy Legion for DC. Their second DC kid gang was The Boy Commandos, which began in Detective Comics #64 (July, 1942).
Detective Comics, where Batman got his start (and which, incidentally, DC Comics itself is named after), had hitherto concentrated exclusively on characters that could, in some sense at least, be construed as — well, detectives. Slam Bradley, Flat Foot Flannigan and the like had formed its early fare, and the more superheroey detectives like The Crimson Avenger and Air Wave had represented a departure into new directions. A feature like The Boy Commandos seemed very much out of place there.
But the U.S. had just entered World War II, and it was getting so military-oriented features like this one weren't really out of place anywhere. In any case, The Boy Commandos took up residence in Detective Comics a few months after Pearl Harbor, and stayed there seven years. They also appeared in World's Finest Comics for roughly the same period and, starting with a cover date of Winter, 1942-43, their own comic.
The boys were an international group, kind of like a junior version of the Blackhawks, but without airplanes. Their names were Andre Chavard (French), Alfie Twidgett (English), Jan Haasan (Dutch), and "Brooklyn" (American — no other name given). They started as "mascots" (a familiar comic book excuse for putting juveniles in danger) of U.S. Army bases in Britain, until, in Detective Comics #64 (June, 1942), Captain Rip Carter gathered them together and led them into action against the Nazis. Three of them wore uniforms like Rip's, but Brooklyn, easily the dominant personality of the group, always wore a green turtleneck and red derby.
They remained in action throughout Europe, except for an occasional excursion to the Pacific front, for the remainder of the war. Afterward, they went to America (minus Jan, who unexpectedly found living relatives in The Netherlands), and continued their activities. Without a war going on, tho, they wore regular clothes (Brooklyn alone looked the same) and found it increasingly difficult to maintain their raison d'etre.
They gradually became an all-American bunch — first, Alfy was replaced by a young Texan named, of all things, Tex; then Andre left and a predictably-bespectacled genius named Percy Clearweather took his place. Still, the postwar world was not kind to their circulation figures. By the middle of 1949, they'd lost their gigs in Detective and World's Finest to a couple of westerns (Pow Wow Smith and The Wyoming Kid, respectively). At the end of that year, after 36 issues, their own comic was discontinued.
The next time they were seen was in the early 1970s, when DC reprinted a few of their stories, some in their own brief title and some in the back pages of Mister Miracle. About the same time, in his DC series New Gods, an older Kirby introduced Metropolis police officer Dan Turpin, who later turned out to be Brooklyn as an adult. "Terrible Turpin", as he's called, is still seen as a minor character in an occasional Superman story. Other than that, The Boy Commandos, once among DC's best sellers, have faded into complete obscurity.

The Dresser Trunk Project
The Dresser Trunk Project is the recovery of lost stories, memories, and places of refuge for travelling black musicians playing in the Chitlin' Circuit during segregation. Inspired by the Cornell boxes, 11 participants designed trunks that each tells the story of a place of refuge in an era of segregation. This place may be a hotel, a residence, a club, a section of a train station or even a Negro League baseball park. The stories will include who passed through and how their experiences at that location may have influenced culture and music. All places are located in a city served by the Southern Crescent Line.
Eleven cities have been identified from New York to New Orleans. For each city, a dresser trunk was designed similar to those used by musicians on their travels. The trunks contain stories, photographs, maps, hotel registers, and images of the way places looked during their travels and speculations on their future. The trunks are planned to tour each of the eleven sites by train, as well as be exhibited in an Amtrak train car. Before the exhibition gets on its trail, it will be exhibited in Extension.
The Dresser Trunk Project is significant in its preservation of a unique cultural heritage that is being lost to the ravages of time and the pressures of development. It strives to link isolated places together in a chain that gives each their rightful place in architectural, music and cultural history.
Participants include Felecia Davis, Yolande Daniels, William Daryl Williams, Lisa Henry-Benham, Mabel Wilson, Mario Gooden, David Brown, Craig Barton, Scott Ruff, Nat Belcher and Walter Hood. The exhibit has traveled to the Extension Gallery for Architecture in Chicago, and the UVa Art Museum in Charlottesville. The DTP will be on display at Howard University during the annual NOMA convention, and at the University of Pennsylvania, November 10th-21st.

It is more than twice as successful as the US at vaccinating girls against human papillomavirus (HPV), which can lead to cervical cancer. "Our vaccination rate is stuck at one-third of our teen girls, yet Rwanda has vaccinated more than 80 per cent of its target population," says Tom Frieden, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which last week released new figures on the US vaccination rate. In 2012, only 33 per cent of eligible girls had all three doses needed for maximum protection, well short of the 80 per cent target. The CDC warns that unless uptake improves, there will be 1400 unnecessary deaths from cervical cancer each year. Frieden said that a continuing worry among parents is that the jab will tempt their daughters to engage in risky sex. "HPV vaccine does not open the door to sex,

Hello and welcome to downsizer.net
As many of you may notice there have been some substantial changes made to downsizer.net by the hard working team here in the back office.
A clean sweep in May does indeed blow the cobwebs away.
We are proud to bring you a shiny new look to welcome in the summer months. The front page has been changed to bring you, what we feel, is a dynamic new and contemporary look.

Please bear with us as we move and reshuffle our articles and other exciting pages. Our techie team are tirelessly toiling and will have everything ship shape as soon as possible.
To coincide with the aesthetic changes we have embraced a few new features.
Not only has the front page been given a clean sweep, but the articles have been reinvigorated with a new and more accessible look. Now you can find yourself learning about soap-making, growing your own and chicken-keeping on a more user friendly footing.

You can now find yourself becoming more familiar with members new and old in our new feature "a spotlight on", as they entertain you with their experiences with downsizer.net. You may find inspiration in their stories, words of wisdom or indeed a simple wry smile of understanding.
Due to a substantial network of willing helpers we have, in the past, coined the phrase "DS Post". Here at downsizer we feel it is important to pay it forward. We embrace the ideal that the world can be made a more sustainable place with the mutual assistance of others.

Mockridge will assume control of News Corporation's embattled UK newspaper division News International, owner of The Times, The Sunday Times, The Sun and, until last week, the News of the World.
Mockridge, who has led Sky Italia since 2003, was tipped to replace James Murdoch as chief executive of Sky in 2007, but chief financial officer Jeremy Darroch got the job.
In addition to his role as chief executive of Sky Italia Mockridge was also chief executive European television of News Corporation, overseeing News Corp's TV operations in Europe, outside of the UK.
Prior to joining Sky Italia, Mockridge was chief executive of the publicly-listed New Zealand company Independent Newspapers and chairman of Sky New Zealand. He is also a previous chief executive of News Corp's Asian TV service Star Group.
Mockridge is a trusted lieutenant of News Corporation. He joined News Corporation in January 1991 to work at Australian newspaper group News Limited. He started his career as a newspaper journalist before a stint as spokesperson in the Australian government
James Murdoch, deputy chief operating officer and chairman and chief executive, international, News Corporation, said: "Tom is an outstanding executive with unrivalled experience across our journalism and television businesses.
"He has proven himself to be a very effective operator in his time at Sky Italia. Under his leadership, Sky has grown to become one of the world's most successful pay TV businesses, reaching close to five million homes and launching channels like TG24 which has set a new standard for independent journalism in Italy."
At Sky Italia Laura Cioli, chief operating officer, and Domenico Labianca, chief finance officer, will assume Mockridge's responsibilities on an interim basis, reporting to James Murdoch.

A full-text collection with trade and scholarly publications relating to religion. It includes publications relating to fields of different religions practiced in South Africa and Africa.
Collection Contents
4 results
Acta Patristica et Byzantina
This publication that is hosted on SA ePublications is only available to sub-Saharan countries.
This journal is published by the Department of Ancient Languages. It is also a mouthpiece of the South African Association for Patristic and Byzantine Studies. It is our aim to promote Patristic and Byzantine studies. Since the New Testament forms part of the Patristic era, we also publish articles on the New Testament. The journal is peer-reviewed.
Acta Theologica
Acta Theologica is an accredited South African journal publishing independently refereed research articles of a high scientific standard in the Biblical Sciences, Theology and Science of Religion. Articles are published in English, Afrikaans, and occasionally in Dutch and German. All contributions are refereed anonymously with a view to possible publication by at least two other scholars who are recognized as specialists in the particular field of study.
African Yearbook of Rhetoric
The African Yearbook of Rhetoric is motivated by the belief, supported by observation, that a democracy that does not provide its people with the means to argue, rhetoric, is bound to be perverted. This journal is impelled by the conviction, borne by international scholarship in rhetoric, that a duty of deliberation is placed on both governed and government, and is fundamental to the reasonable exercise of citizenship. Scholars, in turn, are duty-bound to interrogate rhetorical processes and truth-making beliefs that instruct, or destroy life in a democracy.
The journal prefers to publish invited papers only, on set themes. Authors who would like to offer papers should direct their enquiries to: The Editor in Chief: email@example.com
The journal publishes articles in English/French/Spanish/Chinese/Arabic.
Akroterion is published annually by the Department of Ancient Studies, University of Stellenbosch, with the financial support of the Classical Association of South Africa. The journal publishes articles in English or Afrikaans aimed at the non-specialist, covering all aspects of ancient Greek and Roman civilization, but focusing especially on the influence and reception of the Classics.

Peter W. Benner Dispute resolution practices are moving in a decidedly positive direction as the term "alternative" becomes outmoded. Approaches other than a default to litigation have become mainstream. These trends will continue to develop as we move into 2014: Focus on Interests. Mediation finds its way into most cases now, as attorneys find they can obtain superior results for their clients and more effectively manage their own litigation practices. There remains a primary reliance on evaluative forms of mediation, expecting the mediator to predict the outcome in court or... Read More

Avoiding Costly Conflict Escalation through Assisted Process Design
Growing acceptance of mediation and other consensual processes is allowing lawyers and their clients more readily to reach resolutions that avoid the risk and prohibitive cost of a trial. Many cases still drag on too long, taking on a life of their own, only to be settled out of exhaustion, with relief and resignation, on the eve of trial. Why does this cycle keep repeating itself? The core reason is the intrinsic tendency of conflict to escalate once it is underway. The investment of time, psychic energy and money breeds... Read More

14 Responses to "WHYS on TV – What has Copenhagen achieved?"
December 18, 2009 at 19:21
We should at least be grateful that Copenhagen got the nations of the world talking about it.
And that the current US administration even acknowledges global warming is a major coup.
There's still time. We'll all get on the same page eventually.
December 18, 2009 at 19:39
Corruption in Africa indeed is responsible for the various environmental tragedies all over the continent.
The Niger Delta crisis, Democratic Republic of Congo, Liberia or Sierra Leonian wars are all as a direct result of corruption and failures of governments in the Affected countries.
December 18, 2009 at 19:42
The USA needs to show good faith and commit to stringent cuts in carbon dioxide emissions, adoption of clean energy, and other environmentally responsible measures to move the conference forward.
December 18, 2009 at 19:43
I agree. If Europeans are so upset at Obama, maybe they'd prefer another Republican President?
The whole issue of Global Warming, sadly, will not become important, as Al Gore pointed out in 'An Inconvenient Truth,' until it is a Moral Issue. At the moment, quoting the prophets of Science will not sway people. Hurricane Katrina, that will sway people. Until large sections of Florida and Louisiana sink into the sea, Americans aren't going to care about this topic, unless huge storms that kill many people occur. When these things happen, the public will finally get the message. Until then, the 'dire' consequences of global warming will only be seen as Chicken Little harping. Warmer winters in the American Midwest and Russia will only be welcomed by the inhabitants there. If some polar bears die and the 13,000 people of Tuvalu must move to Australia, Americans (and Chinese and Indians) won't care. But if tens of thousands of people in US, Chinese and Indian port cities perish, then they'll care. Sadly, it's how people learn, the hard way. Everyone will get on the same page then, for sure. But until then, to the public, this all sounds like speculation, and that's exactly the way the Republican Party will trumpet any advances Obama makes toward the goal of decreased CO2 emmissions.
December 18, 2009 at 20:36
Made chinese laugh all the way to prosperity and economic super power and uk sliding towards thridworld, already sign are that we have moved down below top ten economic power and with more money to spent on green tax the misery already begun .
December 19, 2009 at 07:58
What was achieved? A buch of politicians got to take a trip, spend a lot of money on themselves, hob knob with oneanother and produce a lot of methane gas. LOL
December 19, 2009 at 12:30
Copenhagen has achieved the same as Kyoto, that means nothing.
Talk is cheap! the principal polluting nations have set targets before, but made no commitments.
Damages caused by the environmental changes caused by climate change have cost nations a lot more than the money they would invest in reducing carbon emissions and improve overall life quality. This is not about rich countries vs poor countries.
African governments are corrupt, but the other countries that accuse them of corruption continue to deal and profit from that corruption is also corruption.
I'm not Nigerian, but I have worked there for oil and gas companies. Western governments and companies are directly involved in the corruption over there and the same goes for other countries where large corporations have interests and are backed by the governments.
People in developed nations think that consumerism and wastefulness is a sign of affluence.Wasting the planets' resources is counterproductive.
Developing nations are on the same path, in order to catch up with the west, they are on the path to wastefulness.
Accusing china, India and Brasil of not wanting to compromise, while neither the US or Europe made a true commitment is highly hypocritical.
December 19, 2009 at 19:11
Copenhagen achieved:
"Real hopes blowing away in the wind"
December 19, 2009 at 20:15
Now there's an "agreement.". It's not legally binding and has no substance at all. Yet, this is a sign of "progress."
What's the biggest reason for not having a legally-binding agreement? Profit. The carbon trading market is now THE biggest derivitive market in the world. First we had the housing derivitives. And now once again, it's where's my cut? And once again, there's no accountability.
December 20, 2009 at 01:38
Here's an idea that might create an actual agreement.
Everyone who's sick of the endless "debate" about global warming do this. Stop buying newspapers and reading books by "pundits" talking about it. Stop watching all talk shows that continue to push the screaming heads "debate." But naturally keep listening to WHYS.
Eventually a trickle down effect will happen. Profits will go down. Talk show bookers will have no one to call anymore. Producers will be screamed at by the hosts because of no guests. The pressure will build as MSM profits go down. The politicians will say, right. Can't bail anybody out anymore. Might as well write and sign a legally binding agreement.
I think this could work. Try it. And you can thank me later.
December 20, 2009 at 04:29
As expected, practically very little, hardly anything substantive (if not nothing).
Yet but another round of Kyoto and Rio.
December 20, 2009 at 15:17
If the deal is not very political or diplomatic, it is hoped to be fair and beneficial to the humanitarian causes.
December 21, 2009 at 01:56
What has Copenhagen achieved?
Nothing really, but everyone has to pretend now that they have achieved great things and that they have about solved our climate change issues.
I dont know why politicians all have to be such liars and hypocrites, such pretenders, why they always have to make something out of nothing.
December 21, 2009 at 10:13
I agree but, I also have to ask why, knowing how corrupt and selfserving most politicians are, why we sit back and let them keep keep doing what they do.
