Jenny volunteers as a mentor with Friendship Works. Last year she also turned fundraiser to run the London 10k for us.
"I became involved with Friendship Works just over 2 years ago. I was looking for a volunteering opportunity and found the website. I am a teacher and so realised immediately the enormous value that services like this could have for vulnerable children. After thinking about it for several months, I decided that I did have the time to make such a big commitment and submitted my application.
"As I work with older children, my caseworker suggested that it would be nice to be matched with a younger child, and I agreed. I met my match, an adorable 7 year old girl (as she was then) at the beginning of May 2009. She is very quiet and shy, and it has taken a long time for her to build up her confidence with me, but we are now very relaxed in each other's company. We often spend afternoons at my flat baking (and eating) cakes, I have taught her to swim and we love just hanging out in Regent's Park.
"Mentoring has been an extremely valuable experience, and has given me a much greater understanding of some of the challenges facing London children which has really helped me in my work as a teacher. My friend is a big part of my life. My parents and friends ask after her regularly and I am made to feel very welcome at her home. I wouldn't change anything about my experience with Friendship Works, and would really recommend giving it a try!"

Thanks, Bo! I needed that one!

Lol, it looks like a cross between a television remote control, the inside of a computer, and a Polaroid.
Prototypes are almost always of this porportion. Consider the Transistor.
Bell Labs is the birthplace of the Transistor, inventing the device that led to a communications revolution.
John Bardeen, Walter Brattain and William Shockley discovered the transistor effect and developed the first device in December 1947, while the three were members of the technical staff at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, NJ.
Below is a picture of the very first transistor. Imagine today where we have millions of transistors in a single microprocessor.

Here's how women around the world are recognizing International Women's Day
Happy International Women's Day, ladies! Today is proving to be a day of activism and solidarity for women, and people are celebrating this special day all over the world. Events like #ADayWithoutAWoman and women's marches for equality have taken place throughout the day, showing that women can and do make a difference.
The official theme of this IWD, according to its website, is #BeBoldForChange, and marchers across the world did just that. According to The New York Times, an #ADayWithoutAWoman march took place at noon today in New York City and featured a heavy police presence, as 13 were arrested, including some who organized the march. A "Resist Trump" protest made up of several hundred people and dozens of journalists surrounded the White House in the nation's capital. In Dublin, thousands marched against abortion laws in Ireland, a country that has outlawed all abortions. There were also protests and marches in Seoul, San Francisco, Zurich, Paris, Madrid, Turkey and Toronto.
#ADayWithoutAWoman, according to CNN, "aim[ed] to draw attention to inequities working women face compared to men, from wage disparity to harassment to job insecurity." Aside from marching, today, women all over the world striked. While not every woman was able to take the day off, the Center for American Progress did the math and determined that if every woman in America went on strike today, it would have cost the country $21 billion in gross domestic product (that's the total value of the goods and services produced and provided in the country). They also found that women—who make up nearly half of the U.S. workforce—contribute $7.6 trillion to America's GDP each year.
Did you notice a lot of people wearing red today? That was part of IWD, too. Both men and women wore red in solidarity with women striking worldwide. In addition to wearing red, people were encouraged to avoid spending money today unless it was at small businesses or businesses owned by women.
Political figures also joined in on IWD. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and several other Democrats honored the contributions of women at the U.S. Capitol in Washington today, and Hillary Clinton and Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan were honored at the Kennedy Center by Vital Voices for their work for women and girls. Across the pond, Theresa May, the Prime Minister of the U.K., hosted an event at government headquarters at Downing Street to celebrate.
What do you think of #ADayWithoutAWoman? How did you celebrate International Women's Day? Tell us in the comments!

If you are happy with everything in life and understand everything you need to then I have no role to provide. I am guessing what tends to happen is those normally satisfied with life, the lucky ones possibly, sooner or later come up against an issue that affects them directly or bothers them enough to lose that blanket satisfaction and wonder what the hell they can do. Maybe I can prepare them for when it happens as well and fill in that gap in the audience.
The general principles, those behind the information, are knowing the big picture, the three dimensional spiders web where everything fits together, and you can see where each new issue goes when it comes up, and discriminating what's important and what's irrelevant or meaningless, something not as easy as you think as the media and activists tend to take the least important or invented issues and make them dominate your attention and that blocks the real one. Examples include totally avoidable problems, like the lack of clean water in the third world, and nonexistent issues such as calling anyone you disagree with a racist while not actually understanding by doing that you give the real racists a free ride as people are so busy aiming their bile at those making jokes and slightly crass comments about other races or even nationalities (who are exactly the same race as they are), any genuine discrimination or actual violence against different people, such as between Shias and Sunnis, Muslims and Kurdish Muslims, any two African tribes fighting over territory, and golf clubs who still don't allow Jews (I suspect that is still the case somewhere, the club at the bottom of my road didn't in the 70s despite being in the most Jewish area of Britain), someone who objects to too much immigration is lumped in with murderers and crooks as if they are exactly the same.
I hope this gives some kind of view of diversionary tactics, and how even when many people think their life's going smoothly they may for example be earning 20% less than they should be or paying 20% more, so are happy only within their ignorance how their lives could actually be a lot better without any economic growth or change, just a change of policy.
Discrimination is something everyone can learn easily. Seeing the big picture is not required by all to sort their lives out, it's something which builds up over decades and just falls into place on its own, it's not something that's so easy to teach besides elements on it which may then point people to work it out themselves. Every day we have a flood of news and other personal events, and the media tend to treat them as most are the same except the rare major newsflashes, which in fact can often be no bigger in reality either. Does it change things? Does it set a precedent? If not then it may just be variations on a theme, or yet another disaster which is just a little bigger than previous ones for a while but is not actually technically telling you anything useful. Volcanoes, earthquakes and even most wars (which however are 100% avoidable as totally based on criminality) are interesting to know but don't mean life is different, but affirm it is exactly as it was before. Now if a year or two went by without one then that would be news as it doesn't happen in our known reality.
For example, when you hear someone in authority is potentially promoting policies which benefit their own personal business interest, alarm bells. It is unlikely to be exceptional but why they are there at all. And when they work together, make laws to increase their profits, and put other competition out of business by regulations you are being run by Mafiosi. And when not just the Mafia are the largest part of the Italian economy at 8% and running most of their 'renewable energy' and farming you know Italy has to be run by the Mafia as otherwise they would be working in the shadows. And when you then discover Aberdeen is run by the Mafia- building, council, pretty much like the bad old days in Chicago and New York then Scotland must be run by the Mafia as it's not the business of local councils to sort out their crimewave but the police. Who clearly are on the other side as they can't operate with an independent police force. And when carbon trading and credits were created by the fraudulent firm Enron, and they led to a massive fraud trial putting the board away for a long stretch, and they are now both legal and compulsory in many countries despite being proved fraudulent in court.
Do you see where I am leading you now? Everyday ordinary events, important to those involved but part of our business as usual are not actually news but information for its own sake. It has little or no practical use to know who's been murdered today or last year, but (and here's a perfect trap for race baiters) if a large percent in London were black on black it's pretty important as that really shouldn't be happening. If you think it should then please reply in the comment box. If a celebrity gets divorced or there's a flood in the far east it's simply gossip or geography, but unless you have relatives there or are either of the celebrities it can't affect your life. If your government allows an entire city to be run by the Mafia it's your big worry as they can spread, like Ebola of the society. The difference being there's no cure for Ebola, but as I remind people, the Mafia are man made and we have every tool we need to unmake them given the resources. I could suggest that besides providing clean water for the entire continent of Africa, the billions burnt on global warming projects (no benefit and no return of said cash) could have recruited an army of new police to wipe out first Aberdeen's little problem, and then with that experience recruit a few more thousand (rather than wasting lives going into Iraq and Afghanistan with almost as little benefit as climate spending) work their way through Italy.
I pick up on my own pet topical subjects but there is no limit to issues which both raise an interest as they are new, not gossip, and actually change your lives, and man made problems which man could then undo once you expose them. Such as quantitative easing and low interest rates which effectively suck that percentage of everyone's money out of the economy going back to the state and the bankers. Once you know this, and then discover Denmark charge customers 0.75% to save their money, as they are in so much financial shit they face being slung out of the EU (so they fear anyway although it's impossible) the only way they believe they can stay in and keep par with the eurozone is by fleecing the money from their depositors. That's a lovely state of business, and one surprisingly close to the previously mentioned organisation of the Mafia.
It's not always obvious though, as when policies are so dangerous and obnoxious they would cause a revolution then they are usually (in a democracy anyway) rolled out gradually in stages so slow by the time you notice or it's affected you directly it's too late as they're here already. The EU banning cars (unless electric, ha bloody ha) by 2050 in stages is one example, first the London Low Emission Zone, then the Paris restriction on older cars, followed by diesel vehicles, and London's Ultra Low Emission Zone (the same as Paris' ban on older cars) do not affect everyone, only one city, and not enough people in one go to even change the votes for the area. But when one day you're sent a letter telling you your car is now banned, and you can't buy a new one as firstly you can't sell the old one which may have 10-20 year's worth of life in it, and the new one has to be so much more expensive than yours as it's only allowed to be a few years old which most people can't afford. And why exactly do they even get away with such tyranny? Because people believe it causes global warming. Fuck me.
There are stages in this process, you hear the news and then if it relates to a man made criminal situation you both spread the word and find ways to force the authorities to deal with it. Now here's another problem you'll come across, it's their actions you are reporting. Oops. Then who do you call? There's only one solution, information. Yes, the Information Revolution. Only by informing the masses, with the hijacking of the media as the current creeps are nearly all silenced by the same system, will the system be changed not from above but from below. Imagine files being published which proved scientists had worked hard to create graphs showing man made warming based on none at all? In banana republics or communist regimes then you have to have military coups to kick out the filthy corrupt governments when exposed as what they are, and in a way similar measures would occur as a result as unless the clean part of each government acted themselves (as is their official function) to clean their own houses it's then also up to us to do it instead.
It's certainly not just about politics, that's just the most obvious area where issues arise, it's about every single aspect of life. People gossip (including me) endlessly, and when faced with a constant stream of similar information it's easy to switch off and miss the rare good bits. It's all based on the same principles though. Does the latest breakup or rudeness mean anything or is it part of normal life? Unless it's not it's just a soap opera and has as little effect on you as a fictional world on TV. Just think of events in the past and sort them out. Which really meant something and what else was just normal variations on an endless theme? Once you get through enough you'll have raised your own ability enough to know which issues matter and which are just waffle.
Ultimately then for each person who learns these techniques whenever they need to they will be able to spot when something important has happened, and know what may need to be done with that new information which means something in their world has changed. You will be able to filter out the news into everyday repetition and the rare other material, good or bad will then stand out. For example as long as I can remember there have been claims of free energy generators. I have followed every single one, and since the internet every single claim has failed. I can't say why as I wasn't personally involved, but I do suspect at least some of them are genuine. However for the first time a company have set an exact date they will be selling one online. It's actually not that far off, and should it happen then we will have shifted from a world requiring physical combustion or outside movement to generate power to one that does not. That would create a level of Utopia as we will no longer need any fuel whatsoever, literally overnight. These potential events (or actual, should any actually happen) are the highest level of importance. But in my experience many people seem to flatten most news items to the middle, squashing the major ones and raising the trivial ones up, partly as presented that way by the media, making it hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. The same goes for UFO reports. I have been investigating these directly for just as long, and there are a few levels of evidence below the solid, and there is enough to make me keep looking.
But I suppose one of the few stories we'd all agree were the most major in the history of the planet would be if one day you turned on the TV and an alien was being interviewed. It doesn't matter if you believe it could happen, but imagine if it did. That reaches the ultimate level where no one would miss the importance as 95% of people appear to dismiss it's possible. But if you spread the scenario across the other levels of important news then you will then start to realise what else it applies to the rare times it happens. That in a way is how little gets done about the criminal side of things, besides the absence of a heirarchy above the government agencies carrying much of said crimes out, most people simply don't think it matters, even though it makes them substantially poorer but as they only know how much they do have and not what they are supposed to they don't register it. There are methods around that, the main one simply being mass media, publicity is all it needs by collecting the relevant material and dumping it on the public in one go. Unfortunately the source means more to what we may call the masses than the material, so unless it's delivered by official means and seen by around a million people minimum at once then the impact will wear off if it even hits for the identical material. Otherwise a few souls will be collected from time to time but at a rate taking generations to build enough to make a difference which is clearly not realistic. But on the personal level the more people can at least pick the real stories and dismiss the rest, which soon becomes automatic, the first step towards viewing the world as it really is, and then towards the second of doing something about it will begin.
"The great purveyors of Truth will not be found in the newspapers or academic hierarchy, but among those who devote their time to the betterment of the nation by constant investigation and the process of elimination, until all that is left is the bare reality." D Cohen The modern means of revolution only needs to be through knowledge. Repeating the same basic truths is like hammering in a nail until the information becomes set. When enough people do the revolution is here.

A lesson in discrimination- how to read the news accurately

Well today is the 1st of November, and that means I want to try to figure out a)what I achieved and b) what I need to get done.
October felt very sew heavy, but I don't feel that I accomplished anything. I think this is because I started so many things but haven't finished any of them. I have fabric everywhere and it makes it difficult to work out where to start.
Looking back over my posts from the last month the only thing I had to show was Toby the Turtle
And while I think he's a spunky little critter, he's not actually a quilt.
My quilts, well I've cut fabric for a yellow and blue brick. It's quite a nice light spring feeling little thing, too bad it's now summer, but oh well.
I have Mia's quilt top almost completed, just sewing on the borders. It's almost finished. I am going to try to applique a patchwork of her name on the bottom, so fingers crossed it works. I will try to get this finished tonight.
I don't really know what else I've done!! i bought a lot of fabric this month. My stash has tripled in size. This is both good and bad. I love all my new fabrics, but I need to do somehting with them and they are taking up way too much communal space. So I think part of my November challenge will be to organise and finish all my half done projects. Wish me luck!
I want Mia's quilt top done tonight.
I want the spring bricks done over the weekend.
I want to try no binding for my pink minky.
I want to start my Christmas lap quilts.
Ok. That's my November list. It's do-able. Starting...... Now.

Very Good Choice
By fordmazda29 on
Vehicle2004 Mazda 6 s 4dr Sports Sedan (3.0L 6cyl 5M)
ReviewI have had this car for a week now and I can say that I really enjoy having this car. I purchased it used for $9k with 82,000 miles on it and this thing is loaded. I love the seats, they are supportive and comfortable. I love the stereo, the bass is good, but not overpowering. The speaker quality (bose) more than makes up for the lack of speakers. The engine makes a good noise, and is pretty quick. It doesn't take much to get this car up to speed. Unfortunately, the transmission is a bit dim-witted and definitely hampers the cars 0-60 time. I reckon that this car will do 0-60 more than a second faster if you went with the manual. Good build quality, good ride, and well equipped.
Best FeaturesThe ride is good The steering is neither too light or too heavy (and offers decent feedback) The handling is good The sound system (if you go for the Bose system) is excellent. The seats are supportive and comfortable. The engine. The build quality.
Worst FeaturesThe automatic gearbox is dimwitted and hampers the cars performance. The turning radius is terrible. I have driven midsize SUVs with smaller turning radius than this. No Aux input jack (though I did have one installed). The sun roof should have a one touch open and close feature. Ground clearance is a little lower than I am used to. Although it has climate control, it is not dual zone. Automatic climate control requires A/C to be on (even when heating).

|Half Baths
|1,065 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|7 nights
This is one of two apartments we have, the other being a two bedroom apartment in the same building. This one is a large 99sqm luxury apartment located just 150 metres from the sea, 15min from the South Airport and only 5/6 miles from Los Cristianos/ Las Americas.
This area is perfect for a quiet relaxing holiday, with plenty to do and a choice of quality restaurants within minutes. We have furnished our apartment with most of the luxuries of home with particular attention to comfort. The master bedroom has a very comfortable Super king size (6ft Wide), Bed and in the lounge there are two quality sofa beds, one King size and one single. Other luxury qualities: Rooftop pool with fantastic views, Private underground parking space, Lift to all floors, Luxury En Suite Jacuzzi bathroom, with separate shower & twin basin vanity unit. A fully equipped Kitchen with, ceramic hob, oven, dishwasher, microwave, Granite worktops, washing machine, iron, ironing board. For your entertainment a 40 inch flat screen TV, Quality Music System. DVD Player with over 100 DVD's, Hairdryer. Marble floors throughout. There are five Golf Courses within 20min.
The Seafront: The seafront is only a two minute walk away and has a promenade which lines the beach for over a kilometre. The nature reserve is less than 1/2 a mile away which is a wonderful coastal walk.
Smoking on rear balcony or front terrace only.
Golf in South Tenerife: There are five Golf courses in the South of the Island all usually in terrific condition, quite testing with beautiful views all within a 20 minute drive.
1. Closest is the Los Palos 9 hole course which is only 2 miles away, small but plenty of challenges, which is well worth a visit in preparation for the Championship 18 hole courses.
2. Las Americas (6 miles), a 72 par course with magnificent views.
3. Golf del Sur's (8 miles), 27 hole course which has hosted many International events can be very busy and you are advised to book in advance to save disappointment.
4. Costa Adeje Golf is another terrific course which has greens with several doglegs (could be handy for that slice or hook), only 12 miles away.
5. Amarillo is the fifth course (7 miles), which is another 27 hole course besides coastal cliffs again with spectacular views.
We had a 5 night stay at this apartment and were very thrilled when we arrived. Clive and Eileen have thought of everything. The bed was so comfortable and the pillows just the right firmness. We slept so well! Lovely to find some welcoming cold beers and yummy chocolate biscuits in the fridge - thank you! The apartment was spotless and we hope we left it in the same manner! Washing machine was put to good use and all washing dried overnight on the balcony. The pool terrace was as others have said, quiet and pretty much private during our stay. Great to have access to British TV too. It was conveniently situated close to the restaurants and local supermarket. We loved The Club House - Polly a very friendly and welcoming hostess. Chopstix was also great and Oh is a wonderful hostess. Palm Mar is an extremely quiet resort which we loved - but Los Cristianos is only a 15 minute cab ride away if you want to venture further afield for more lively nightlife! Communication through Clive was great and provided all necessary instructions prior to arrival.
We spent ten very relaxing days in this apartment in Palm Mar. The apartment was extremely comfortable and very well stocked, a great advantage for poeple who like to travel light.
The apartment and the public areas were kept immaculately as was the rooftop pool where we spent a lot of time, frequently, with the whole area to ourselves.
I strongly recommend this apartment to anyone who is searching for luxury and relaxation.
We had a really lovely week. The apartment was very clean, well equipped and comfortable and the pool area was amazing. Thank you Clive and Eileen for all the information given regarding the apartment and the surrounding area.
We caught a cab from the airport and where there with no bother in very quick time. The apartment was very clean and very welcoming. Clive and Eileen have left nothing out even to leaving a welcome gift in the fridge. The bedroom was large and en-suite with a very generous walk in shower.
The large terrace gets some sun from mid afternoon.
If you get the chance order the paella from the Flamingo Bar 1 day in advance, so woth it. Will go back in the future. Many thanks, Norma and Noel (London)
The apartment is beautiful with everything you need. Probably the most powerful shower we've ever had abroad - and the shower door doesn't leak everywhere like most places! The kitchen and bathroom cupboards were well stocked with cleaning products, fresh towels, even hand soap and shower gel. There's a fabulous CD and DVD collection and the wifi connection was brilliant - so easy to log on and keep in touch with family and friends back home. The icing on the cake was the balcony though - literally huge and perfect for chilling out on. The pool was reasonably quiet considering it was Easter. We tried all the local restaurants and can highly recommend the ClubHouse (English owners, great food and the nicest people around), Flamingos for some tapas, the SeaLounge (for a bit more of an upmarket meal) and Bahia Beach which is only a 5/10 minute walk down the road. We spent two days at Bahia Beach as it was only a 30 Euro minimum spend to get a double beach bed, two bottles of water and towels for the day. Once you've bought lunch and some drinks, it's easily good value for money. It is slightly more expensive to eat and drink there than other restaurants but they do amazing food combo plates and we tried the house red wine for 4 Euros a glass (bargain!) whilst watching the sun set and it was lovely! All in all, a wonderful holiday, and we really appreciated the fantastic customer service from Clive who emailed over instructions for the apartment/pool/wifi, directions and info about the local area etc when we booked. It really put our minds at ease. Thank you! Can't wait to go back!
We have just returned from our stay in Palm Mar this morning and have all had a super time. The apartment had everything you would want - big balcony, super ensuite, and all the kitchen bits and was located right beside the beach. The owner Clive was also always very prompt in getting back with any answers to queries.
Only 15 min from the airport and one junction before Los Cristianos, Palm Mar is located between a nature reserve and the Guaza mountain being tranquil and serene. Los Cristianos and Las Americas are only 5-7 miles away respectively. This quiet area has very little traffic, has a number of restaurants, bars and 3 mini markets all within a few hundred yards.
For the energetic the location is Ideal for hikers, horse trek riding, surfing, fishing, sailing, swimming, diving, but is also perfect for a quiet relaxing holiday and to enjoy the beauty of the Canarian coastline. Golfers can take advantage of the beautiful, quaint 9 hole Los Palos which is just 2 miles away, complete with driving range, putting green and a lovely cafeteria/bar at the entrance. Palm Mar is central to the South of Tenerife which makes almost every attraction and cultural sight within easy driving distance. In fact you can drive around the whole island in just two hours.
Other Activities: Siam Water Park - Europes largest opened Nove 08, One of Europes largest Karting Tracks 10mins, Aqua park 15mins, Loro Park. In Fact there are too many attractions to list here. Have a look at a Tenerife website.

For each mpeg-(S)VCD file i edit with M2-EDITpro5.0 VCDEasy it says the file requires autopadding....
Is M2-EDITpro5.0 really not capable of producing (S)VCD-MPEG files correct in this respect?

In the 'Generate' dialog, don't select 'VCD' if the file is already compliant, accept the defaults. I do this and the files never have to be autopadded.

Season Record Coach
1983-84 1-1 Ernest Riggins
1984-85 1-1 Ernest Riggins
1992-93 0-1 Beth Burns
1993-94 1-1 Beth Burns
1994-95 0-1 Beth Burns
1996-97 0-1 Beth Burns
Beth Burns won't chalk it up as a coach's superstition.
It also had nothing to do with any sort of nagging feeling that, despite all her San Diego State women's basketball team had accomplished, it wasn't enough to keep its season going.
For Burns, watching her Aztecs see their name as one of the 64 to make it into the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament was something she wanted exclusively for them and the people closest to the program.
"I just think it's a family moment," said Burns, who acknowledged that the university would have hosted a more elaborate affair if asked. "It doesn't mean we don't want to share it. I just have always kind of kept it (as a small gathering)."
What started as an intimate get-together for the team huddled in front of a big screen, though, will shortly turn into March Madness, as SDSU earned an at-large berth into the NCAA Tournament yesterday and the right to open on the floor of Cox Arena.
The No. 10 seed in the Berkeley Regional, the Aztecs (23-7) will meet No. 7 DePaul (23-9) for the first time Saturday, making good on a goal they set for themselves when it first was announced more than a year ago that a pair of early tournament games would be played locally.
SDSU has appeared in seven NCAA Tournaments overall, most recently in 1997. Among the 64 teams in the tournament, the Aztecs are tied for second for most years between trips.
"I grew up watching all the other teams get in there, but you never heard about San Diego State," said sophomore Paris Johnson, a San Diego High grad who leads the team in rebounding (8.5 rpg) and is second in scoring (14 ppg). "Finally seeing (on television) San Diego State facing DePaul is overwhelming. Coach Burns (came) in here to rebuild this program, and we came in and wanted to finish that. We worked hard throughout this season, and got where we wanted to go."
Saturday's game, scheduled for 5 p.m., will be televised on ESPN2 and followed by a game between No. 2 seed Stanford and No. 15 UC Santa Barbara at 7:30. The winners will meet at 6:30 p.m. Monday for the opportunity to go to Berkeley the following weekend.
"It's just exciting to see that we've accomplished our goal," said junior Jene' Morris, whose 15.5 points per game leads the team. "We have such a great leader in Coach Burns. She instilled that dream in us. We're finally here. We finally made it."
Two complete regions and nearly all of the Berkeley bracket had been announced before SDSU finally saw its name listed, drawing a cheer that could be heard beyond the walls of the team room in Cox Arena.
Although Burns had watched plenty of selection shows with her teams in the past, this one, she said, was different.
"It's always awesome," said Burns, who figured her team could end up anywhere from a No. 8 seed to a No. 11. "As coaches, the day before, you're just obsessing in a thousand different directions. You're taping more games. Do you need the American East Finals? I can sell them to you.
"Then, for that one hour, it's just elation and now it's reality. Now it's back to the grind that got you to this point. It's just an exciting moment, and we've come such a long, long way. For all this team has endured, it is a great accomplishment."
After the bracket announcement was complete, Burns brought her team onto the floor of Cox Arena, and with the players encircling her, pointed to where a banner will soon hang commemorating the team's regular-season co-championship, as well as its 14-0 record at home.
"Before we start our next chapter," she told them, "we're going to finish (the previous chapter) right."
To the surprise of the players, a ladder was then brought onto the court to cut down the net.
In all, three teams from the Mountain West – SDSU, Utah and TCU – earned berths into the tournament, tying the league with the Pac-10 for the sixth-highest total.
Only SDSU, though, opens on its home floor.
"There will not be overconfidence," Burns said. "There will be comfort. This is our home. This is our routine. "

Murray Law Firm: DWI Defense Center
Robert A. Murray
Stephen P. Wilson
Criminal Defense
Protecting Your Rights
There are few criminal offenses that require the kind of legal attention and knowledge that DWI offenses do. DWI charges cover a wide-ranges of legal issues, including search and seizure, due process, illegal interrogation, and evidentiary issues, all of which are best handled by an experienced attorney who understands these unique facets of DWI law. In most DWI cases, evidence such as toxicology reports and field sobriety test results are used against the alleged drunk driver. While FSTs are considered more of a pseudo-science, other scientific areas require a defense attorney who has thorough understanding of the operation of breath tests, alcohol testing equipment, and other instruments used to detect intoxicants in an alleged intoxicated driver. For comprehensive DWI defense after an arrest for drunk driving in mid-Missouri, call
Murray Law Firm
Protecting Your License
This is America. Not being able to drive is not an option. If you've been charged with a DWI, Murray Law Firm will do everything within our power to get your charges reduced, or dismissed altogether, and get you back on the road.
We Have the Knowledge
Robert Murray and Stephen Wilson are top players in the Missouri Law community. They have lectured and written on DWI Law for the Missouri State Bar, and given numerous seminars on DWI, traffic, and criminal law. You need us in your corner!
The consultation is free. Call 573-442-1563.
Reputation Matters
Robert A. Murray was a Planning Chairman and Seminar Moderator on DWI defense in 2002, and was on the DWI Law and Practice Planning Committee and helped write the DWI CLE Deskbook in 2004. He also taught the Trial Practice Class at the University of Missouri Law School that same year. Stephen P. Wilson has also given DWI and traffic seminars for The Missouri Bar, and has served on their Criminal Law and Procedures Committee. If that doesn't speak volumes, what does?
Free initial consultations. Call 573-442-1563.
Understanding Assistance during Misdemeanor Cases
Misdemeanors in Mid-Missouri include crimes such as minor theft, small marijuana offenses, domestic assault, driving under the influence, probation violations, stalking, driving while revoked, and ex partes. These crimes often carry fines less than $1000 and jail time of up to 1 year.
But just because these crimes are less serious in nature doesn't mean that we will take your situation lightly. Our criminal law attorney can help you navigate the legal system to lessen your sentence or work to have your case dismissed entirely.
Legal Aid and Consultation during Felony Cases
Felonies represent the larger or more grave crimes, including drug possession, assault, multiple DWIs, arson, grand theft, and kidnapping. Due to their more serious nature, they carry much longer jail times, and depending on the situation, a lifetime in prison. Furthermore, felonies can accrue thousands upon thousands of dollars in fines.
But before you panic, keep in mind that our attorney is here to help you, no matter your crime. We'll assemble the facts regarding your case and present a solid foundation before the court.

Tobacco packaging law welcomed on Mid North Coast
The mid north coast local health district has applauded a High Court decision paving the way for plain tobacco packaging.
Yesterday the court ruled against tobacco companies which challenged the federal government's proposal on the grounds that it was unconstitutional.
The court found nothing unconstitutional about the government plans and has ordered costs against the tobacco companies challenging the laws.
Manager of Health Promotion Ros Tokley says it's a landmark decision that will have international repercussions.
She says it's a win for public health that will attack the biggest cause of preventable disease at its roots.
"The costs around health care related to tobacco again the numbers of big.
"I mean I think at this point in time we know it's an issue, we know it's a public health issue," she said.
"The tobacco companies went into bat for this on an economic basis really disregarding the impact on the public health of our population.
"So let's look at improved health outcomes as a result of reduced smoking rates along the north coast," she said.
Ms Tokley says plain packaging legislation will be an effective and important piece of public health policy.
She says it will ultimately have huge repercussions for preventable diseases on the north coast.
"It's actually more about reducing the ability of the tobacco industry to advertise their product.
"That's one of the big things.
"A spin off of that is reducing the attraction to young people taking it up, particularly our kids and overall, overtime reduce the rate of smoking on the north coast and our rates of smoking particularly our pregnant women and young men are higher than the state average," she said.

Containing several of his well-known later short stories, this volume also includes tales from Tolstoy's early years in the Russian Army, a time of his life when he was already exploring the profound moral questions of war, love, and courage.
A few, such as "Where Love Is, God Is" and "What Men Live By", have had such a deep impact on our communities that we have performed them as plays. All these works are characterized by freshness and an almost biblical simplicity.

Some cool concept art from Thor: Ragnarok. Mildly spoilerish if you don't know much about the film.

Already saw that. Thought of you and almost posted it too.
Black Panther concept art:
Moonage Daydream was on the soundtrack for Guardians 1.
Edit: sorry chief. I see this has already been talked about.
The full cast for Freeform's Cloak and Dagger:
I only really know her from Scandal, where frankly she's pretty terrible.
EDIT: That's not fair actually. She's not terrible, she's fine but she has 4 or 4 "tricks" that she relies on so if you watch enough of her it becomes annoying.
She was also in Django Unchained.
As I was waiting for Taboo to come on, I caught the last 15 minutes of X-Men: Days of Future Past. It made me realize how big of a mistake they made with X-Men: Apocalypse. I understand wanting to use the younger (and cheaper) First Class. but DoFP really was a nice coda to the "origin" of the X-Men. It cleaned up continuity problems (and purged X3 from the record). With the end of DoFP, they should have gone back to setting the movies in contemporary times. Have a couple of the older X-Men as mentors/teachers to a group of younger mutants who take on Apocalypse. A lot of the story would have had to be changed but that wouldn't have been a bad thing based on what we got. The X-Men movies should be bigger than they are and not the current messy state.
It is pretty impressive that DoFP resolved everything so nicely and Apocalypse mucked it all up again in the space of one film.
Yeah that says very little for her since I saw it and completely forgot she was in it.
Yeah, she didn't really do much in Django Unchained but scream and cry.
Speaking from a personal point of view, I'd take Sophie Turner over Famke Janssen any day.

Sadly, some people just don't know when to stop and change their behavior. An excellent example of this is master sock puppeteer, Andrew Stephens. Not happy with his ROKSO record at Spamhaus, Andrew took it upon himself to create an army of sock puppets (1,2,3, and many more) to try and reinforce his view that Spamhaus is a terrorist organization.
For some odd reason, Andrew seems to think that this kind of activity will help him, but as we all could have guessed, it did the exact opposite. When 10 or so some-odd people suddenly show up to religiously 'defend' someone in a forum, its plainly obvious just what's going on.
Needless to say, it isn't going so well for Andrew at the moment.

This past weekend was the 2012 Wool Arts Tour. My daughters and I went, as usual, and my wonderful husband babysat the grandchildren. We had a great time, scoring lots of gorgeous yarn and other things. Here's what I came home with.
The Fiber Studio hand dyed lace weight bamboo yarn, 1336 yards, color: "Lapwing." This is a gorgeous, SOFT yarn and much deeper in color than the photo appears. Should make a lovely shawl, not sure which pattern yet.
Artful Yarns "Lustro" yarn, 36% viscose, 25% acrylic, 20% mohair, 19% nylon. Dark nearly-black brown and gold shades. I think it will make a perfect scarf to go with my new black winter coat, and I plan to use the scarf pattern on the reverse of the yarn label, "Lace Rib Scarf."
Fiesta La Boheme yarn, "Alaska" colorway, 50% rayon, 32% brushed kid mohair, 14% wool, 4% nylon, 165 yards.Again, the color is deeper than the picture shows. Not sure what I'll make with this…maybe I'll do a search on Ravelry and see what I can find. I've coveted a skein of this yarn for a long time.
Nightingale Fibers hand dyed "Lillian" lace weight yarn, color Red, 80% baby alpaca, 20% silk, 1000 yards. Of COURSE this will have to be a shawl too, and I'm leaning toward the "Curved Shawl" in "Victorian Lace Today." So soft…maybe I'll just keep it around to stroke!
Nightingale Fibers hand dyed "Eddie" fingering weight yarn, 50% superwash merino, 50% silk, 430 yards. I could make socks from this, of course. But I also may look through "Sock Yarn One Skein Wonders" and see what else I can come up with.
I also bought a lovely heart-shaped wood shawl pin, but the stick didn't match. They're going to mail me a matching pin, and then I'll post a photo.
So that's my haul. Anyone else go? What did you get?
Everyone who knits has yarns they covet. Lace weight or bulky; wool, alpaca or mohair; multicolor or single shade; we all have our preferences.
Then, there are other items we need when we knit. For example, knitting needles. Some prefer wood, others like plastic, while still others stick with aluminum.
And that leads into the discussion of straights, double-pointed or circular?
But there are other knitting related items that we don't really need, we just want. These could include fancy knitting totes, stitch markers that are really knitting jewelry, or stitch/row counters that double as necklaces.
For me, the "unnecessary but desired" item is a shawl pin. I love shawls, both knitting them and wearing them, so shawl pins come naturally. Oddly enough, I don't use them every time I wear a shawl, but still I covet them.
Here's a picture of some of my shawl pins:
Okay, not the best picture. But you may be able to see that I have metal, wood, and ceramic shawl pins, some in colors to match specific shawls, while others are neutral and could go with most anything. And no matter how many I have, when a new one catches my eye, I'll buy it!
What do YOU covet in the knitting world?
And to give you a smile today on this cold, snowy Tuesday, I'll close with a funny:

Jewelry Gift Ideas: Todd Reed Diamond Earrings #HintingSeason
Today's gift idea has drama, movement, and plenty of sparkle. Todd Reed has been making distinctive jewelry for more than 20 years (although you wouldn't believe that if you met him in person…how is that possible?), often using raw diamonds in natural colors. He and his talented team of metal smiths hand-fabricate expressive jewelry in recycled metals that walk the knife edge of refinement and a little untamed.
I've seen these earrings in person, and while they are very arresting, they are infinitely wearable. The blackened silver creates a shadowbox backdrop for the multitude–about 3.15 carats worth–of cognac, grey, sable and white diamonds varying in size. The effect is of a constellation of diamonds scattered across the matte black background. The earrings drop from the ear and are hinged where the wire meets, allowing for the movement of the wearer to create a comet-trail of sparkle wherever they go…
These are available at Fox's Gem Shop in Seattle, and a number of other retailers, you can check here for someone near you.

Good Points
I have a toshiba 36" tv.Picture & sound are excellent
Bad Points
a crack appears to be developing in the top left hand corner of the case, is this a common fault?
General Comments
Overall I am very pleased with the set, especially the picture and the range of input/outputs. It will be interesting to see whether the crack in the case that is developing is a general manufacturing fault or not. The set has not received any impact that I know of.
Written on: 09/07/2003
I noticed this fault on a display set in a branch of Curry's. The crack appeared to go from the top right hand corner of the screen towards the outside of the casing at 45 degrees.

You will not get a Herpes cure from a Doctor.
Just click on the link at the bottom of this blog and it will take you to the same supplier that I used to get the Herpes Virus out of my body. You will need to do a 30 day detox. Drink 13 drops of the Zeolite, twice per day for one month and your herpes will be gone. Recommended to me by my Naturopath.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
Kajuka, you cannot contact a doctor for a cure for herpes but if you have yellow nail fungus you can contact a doctor for a cure for it which will also cure herpes.
A doctor cannot to their knowledge cure herpes. They are not allowed to. It would be illegal for a doctor to prescribe Lamisil Tablets for herpes so you have to have nail fungus to cure herpes with a drug.
When it comes to your health and cures, you have no choice but to be smarter and more educated than the best doctors and a PhD from Duke wouldn't and doesn't count. You need to learn the truth about diseases like herpes because your doctor will never know the truth.
Doctors are not bad people, they are duped by the medical industry the same as their patients. The medical industry is controlled by pharmaceutical companies and their university researchers who are looking for the next patentable product to earn them billions of dollars as long as it doesn't cure herpes. Medicine cannot afford to cure herpes. As soon as it becomes common knowledge that Lamisil Tablets cure herpes, the drug will be taken off the market. The key to educating yourself now is to realize that 8 out of 10 people who have herpes also have nail fungus. It is very likely a person with nail fungus will test positive for herpes. They may not have any sores but they will still likely test positive for herpes.
If you have nail fungus, go see any doctor, even some natural doctors can prescribe Lamisil Tablets depending on what state you live in. A 12 year old can diagnose yellow nail fungus. If you don't see any yellow dry brittle ugly nails on your feet or hands you aren't going to get a legal prescription for Lamisil. If you tell your doctor you want Lamisil to cure herpes they are going to laugh at you for thinking you know more than they know.

beginning of something new, exciting, and different; something to be feared, even dreaded; the beginning of decline, eventually the end; or well, just another year?
sort by best latest
Hi-- you can delete this answer if I don't qualify (I turn 64 in November) but I feel okay about being in my 60s. We are at the younger end of the Baby Boom, or at least not the older end, and there are masses of us. As far as I know, we still 'rule' in consumer decisions-- we have a lot of shopping clout and designers, engineers, what-have-you, are all vying for our favour (and dollars). We have computer pads, high tech walking sticks, all kinds of advanced surgeries that the generation before didn't have, we are the cruise-iest generation, and I think we still look pretty darn good in our 60s.

Join us for the Patapsco Heritage Greenway 2017 Annual Meeting on May 3. Following a brief business meeting, we will hear from noted speaker Ross Kimmel about:
The Union Army and the Thomas Viaduct
The main railroad linking the North and South crossed the Patapsco River on the Thomas Viaduct. Whoever controlled that route controlled the flow of men and materiel for the Civil War. Union troops were stationed at Relay and in Howard County to protect the bridge. We know how the War turned out, but do you know the stories of the troops on the Patapsco? Ross Kimmel, Civil War expert, author, and retired chief historian for the Maryland Park Service, will talk about what it was like in 1861 -1865 at this key, border-state post.
Admission is free, but reservations are required due to limited seating.

Dear Friends at Christ the King,
I am writing to share with you the news that Christine Fifield has resigned from her position as Communications Coordinator at Christ the King, effective May 1, 2017. The announcement of her resignation was communicated to CtK staff and council earlier today. Christine will be moving to Chicago, where new adventures await her.
Christine has served as Communications Coordinator at CtK since September 2014. Drawing on her experience facilitating communications for the Saint Paul Area Synod, she has been able to further develop and advance CtK's communication strategy and expand our social media presence, while maintaining and improving CtK's website, as well as such print media as the Herald, which she more fully reconstructed as a storytelling platform rather than simply a compilation of announcements. In the course of the last three years, Christine has collaborated in different ways with both staff and volunteers, expanded her photography and videography abilities, and made use of her Spanish language skills with the emerging Cristo Rey community. She has definitely left her mark on our community, particularly through such creative projects as the Clothed with Compassion T-Shirt campaign as well as the Stories of Compassion in Action video series.
In the letter announcing her resignation, Christine writes, "CtK has been an incredibly supportive and nurturing community to me as both a person and a professional, and for that I am thankful. I wish the CtK community, staff, and members continued growth, wisdom, and opportunity in the years to come. I look forward to following what comes next for this engaged and passionate community of faith."
I have begun working with others on staff and personnel committee to update our position description, which we will post as soon as possible in appropriate media outlets. Ideally, we would like to have someone in place sometime during the summer.
As Christine moves on to new ventures to which God is calling her, she goes with the assurance of our continued prayers. I speak for many here at Christ the King in saying that we are truly grateful for all that Christine has done among us and convinced that she will be both an asset and a blessing to those among whom she will be working in the future.
Together in God's mission,
Pastor Peter Hanson

FBI Activates Instant ID System
July 20, 1999
The Federal Bureau of Investigation has put into service a new computerized national crime data system. It gives police in any community the ability to take a single fingerprint from a suspect in a roadside arrest and determine within minutes whether that person is wanted for a crime.
- The new National Crime Information Center 2000 system has taken over from a computer network that linked the bureau to state and local police agencies and often took hours, days or longer to answer such queries.
- Some law-enforcement agencies -- such as the New Jersey and Michigan state police -- already have the equipment needed to use the new system, and the bureau hopes to have most agencies in the country hooked in within three years.
- The bureau provides the software free, but the agencies must buy their own lap-top computers, fingerprint scanners and printers.
- The new system can automatically process fingerprints and mug shots even from a squad car -- utilizing a file of 250,000 fingerprints at the bureau's facility at Clarksburg, W. Va.
It also contains the old system's lists of wanted people, criminal histories, missing and deported people, and stolen guns, vehicles, license plates, stocks, boats and other articles.

At least 112 killed as rivers overflow in Colombia: President Santos
A river in south Colombia has burst into its banks, triggering an avalanche of water that moved debris into homes overnight, killing at least 112 people.
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos said on Saturday that at least 112 people had been confirmed dead as a result of river flows and mudslide in Mocoa, a city of 350,000 people located near Colombia's border with Ecuador.
Santos was due to land in Mocoa to personally supervise the rescue operation.
He said earlier on his Twitter account that his trip to the capital of Putumayo would "guarantee attention to the victims of this tragedy, which has all Colombians in mourning."
Earlier in the day, police commander Colonel Omar Bonilla told local radio station Caracol that mudslide in the city had killed at least 93 people, adding that hundreds had been also injured in the tragedy.
The river reportedly overflowed overnight, Carlos Ivan Marquez with Colombia's national disaster agency said, adding that the number of deaths could climb as many were still missing in various neighborhoods affected by the floods.
"Hundreds of families" had yet to be found and the whole neighborhoods were missing, said governor Sorrel Aroca of the Putumayo department, calling the development "an unprecedented tragedy."
A crisis group was also formed, comprising of local officials, military units, police and rescue teams to better handle the search and rescue operations. Teams were also scrambled to begin the removal of hundreds of tons of debris.
"We have sent a team of 150 people to make our response effective and machinery began work immediately," Marquez said, adding, "We will be with the governor and the mayor giving all necessary attention."
Mocoa Mayor Jose Antonio Castro said the mudslide had affected a vast patch of land, adding that scores of neighborhoods in the city had been completely flattened.
"It's a big area. A big portion of the many houses were just taken by the avalanche but above all the people were warned with enough time and they were able to get out but houses in 17 neighborhoods have basically been erased," Castro said.
Landslides are common in Colombia, a country known for its mountainous landscape and heavy rains.
