Disgust with both parties will increase the liklihood of a third party rise which captures the independents, which now almost outnumber Democrat voters, and do outnumber Republican voters, although this leader could arise in either party. If the trend continues of both parties losing support, in a few years independents will be the largest voting bloc. There is also a possibility that the millions and millions who never vote will become politically active and join the independents in a new direction toward freedom this could change everything.

Franck Ribery: I should win award
Franck Ribery is confident he could win the World Player of the Year award following his performances for European champions Bayern Munich during 2013.
The Frenchman expects to make the shortlist to be announced by FIFA early next month.
New season brings big expectations to fill for these Bundesliga stars.
And he told France's daily newspaper Le Monde: "I have no fear, I am confident. I have done all I had to.
"If you look at my performances all year long, I have made the difference. I may not score in every match but I set the defences on fire."
The 30-year-old helped Bayern to win an unprecedented Champions League, Bundesliga and German Cup treble last season, and was crowned UEFA's Best Player in Europe during August.
He now believes he should win FIFA's Ballon d'Or award which will be announced on January 13.
He added: "So far this year, I have never failed. I have been good during the whole year with my national team and my club.
"What we did with Bayern last season was historic."
FIFA will announce a three-man shortlist from the candidates who also include Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta, Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale.

2 fresh reblooms!

I have a beautiful rebloom scape ( surprise ) on Magnificent Hummingbird. It looks better than the original. Mountains Bow Down hasn't stopped blooming but it's close to the end now. I also have a nice scape coming in on Paco Paco. Ellie

Jean, it's on it's last leg now but has bloomed it's heart out this year!
Debra, I had two fans rebloomed earlier but was shocked to see this scape. It was ready to bloom when I saw it and the scape is loaded. I don't think she takes a good photo though. I don't seem to be able to get the beautiful color and form..
Thanx to you all for responding!! Ellie

Many visitors today!
Today was an outstanding day! My zinnias are not at all up to par now, but as long as the visitors continue to enjoy them, I will leave them. I had at least 20 sulfurs and about as many gulf frits today. Several varieties of skippers visited and I saw just the second goatweed butterfly I have ever seen. It was sitting on the wet soil of a flowerbed I had just watered. As many as ten sulfurs at a time were lighting and enjoying the wet soil too.
Quite a few of the butterflies flew through water as I sprayed it on the plants, they flitted around and reminded me of toddlers playing under a sprinkler. I had a black tiger swallowtail enjoying the zinnias and the water, and all and all it was a lovely day! I am really going to miss the butterflies when they are through traveling through my yard.
Sounds just wonderful Kay!! Yes, I'd keep the flowers as long as they are still coming. I had a similar experience the other day when I watered a flower bed. As I sprayed the bed, the butterflies began to come in and flit all around exictedly. I am seeing loads of Cloudless Sulphurs now. They tend to focus on the red tubular blooms.

The 2006 Syrah Hickinbotham Vineyard combines a voluptuous flavor profile with enough ripe tannin to evolve for 6-8 years. Drink it from 2015 to 2031. (97+)
(2/ 2009)
Opaque violet. Initially brooding nose quickly opened to display powerful raspberry, kirsch and violet scents. Vivid red and dark berry flavors are corralled by nervy minerality and silky tannins, with anise and rose pastille notes building on the back end. Blends depth, sweetness and finesse with a deft hand, finishing with mounting sweetness but no candied character. Pretty cool stuff.
(10/ 2008)
Rich and ripe, displaying a peppermint character that adds interest to the generous blackberry and cherry flavors. Firm tannins support the nicely focused finish. Best from 2009 through 2016.

Not bad
I like the title, and i think it's certainly rather fitting as first as it chaotic with a bit of stucture. (I study physics by the way and...) chaos is supposed to be unpredictable. You did in fact DO just that at about 1:40 and it was great! I think the whole song should sound more like the ending :)

MSHA 2013 Annual Conference
April 11 and 12, 2013
Victoria Inn, Winnipeg
Thursday April 11th - Conference Day #1
Session – 1a & 1b
Full day, Speech-Language Pathology
Speaker – Kathy Kilpatrick, M.A., CCC-SLP, experience as a speech-language pathologist primarily in the area of home health care for 4 decades led to the development of Communication Connection (www.connectionsincommunication.com ) and Memory Fitness Matters. (www.memoryfitnessmatters.com ) She is a national motivational speaker and the author of more the 35 products including her Communication Connection Resource Kit, a series of therapy workbooks, reminiscence puzzles and her popular Memory Fitness Toolkit. Kathryn has articles and blogs she has written on eldercare concerns for ElderCarelink and has created a weekly memory fitness blog series. It provides memory tips for individuals of all ages and groups of older adults. Each week there is a specific area to enhance overall awareness of what matters when it comes to memory fitness and successful aging. For decades Kathryn has been helping those families who have loved ones with Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia to enhance the quality of the journey they walk together as she did with her mother. She provides training on person-directed care, creating a lifestyle care plan and private consultations so others can learn how to meet a person where they are currently able to function to maximize safety and the time they spend together.
Topic: Home Sweet Home: Easier Said than Done
Most older adults prefer to return to their own home whenever possible after a hospitalization or rehab. In order to maximize the quality of life of all involved, it is essential to make modifications if there are also difficulties with hearing, vision, speech, memory, or cognition. With the increased concerns when an older adult has Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia, being proactive involves taking a look at the bigger picture including the status of the caregiver(s) while addressing safety concerns and activity involvement.
Session 1c &1d
Full day, Speech-Language Pathology
Speaker – Dr. Rebecca McCauley, Ph. D, CCC-SLP, is a professor at the Ohio State University, a fellow of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and a Board-Recognized Specialist in Child Language. In addition to a considerable number of articles and book chapters, she has authored or co-edited 5 books related to children's communication disorders, including Assessment of children's language disorders (2001), Treatment of language disorders with Marc Fey (2006), Interventions for speech sound disorders in children (2010), with Lynn Williams and Sharynne MacLeod, and Treatment of autism spectrum disorders (2012) with Patricia Prelock. Current projects include work on a second edition of her 2006 book and preparation, with Edythe Strand, of the test manual for the Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Disorders, a motor speech assessment for children with limited speech skills. Her interest in evidence-based practice stems from her profound appreciation of how much there is to know related to children's communication disorders and how enormously challenging it is to translate knowing into doing!
Topic: Choosing your path to expertise - Evidence-based practices choices in child language disorders
The overall purpose of this session is to help participants move beyond viewing EBP in child language disorders as a way of accessing professionally endorsed information (external evidence) to thinking about it as providing tools to use in increasing their own expertise and improving their practice outcomes. The presenter will use case examples to describe a range of well-supported and emerging interventions and the increasing number of avenues by which participants can learn about them. Nonetheless, the focus of the session will be on discussions and brainstorming activities designed to help participants develop workable strategies for gaining and implementing evidence-based solutions and EBP principles. Individual and group problem solving activities are incorporated to help participants devise plans that represent a good fit for their own interests, skills, and work environments.
Session objectives:
Participants will be able to:
(1) Describe their own current areas of expertise and their goals for increasing their expertise in child language disorders
(2) Identify at least 2 strategies they would consider pursuing to increase their access to and use of external evidence, child/family values and preferences, and/or practice-based evidence
(3) List 3 intervention methods currently being researched to improve outcomes for children with language disorders
Session – 1e & 1f
Full day, Audiology
Speaker - Dr. Richard Tyler, Ph.D, was trained as a clinical audiologist at The University of Western Ontario and completed a Ph.D. in Psychoacoustics and The University of Iowa. He worked initially at the Institute of Hearing Research in the United Kingdom. Rich has been a visiting scholar in China, South Africa, Australia, Sweden, Poland, Germany and France, and is now a Professor in Audiology at the University of Iowa. His scientific work includes the quantification of tinnitus, necessary for clinical trials. Rich sees tinnitus and hyperacusis patients weekly, and hosts an annual Tinnitus Treatment Workshop. He edited the first text book on tinnitus, The Tinnitus Handbook; a clinician's guide, Tinnitus Treatment - Clinical Protocols; and a self-help guide, The Consumer Handbook on Tinnitus. The Workers Compensation Code in the State of Iowa has been changed such that workers with tinnitus and/or hyperacusis are compensated, independent of hearing loss, based on Rich's testimony. He is currently on a Veteran's Administration committee attempting to increase awareness of the disabilities caused by tinnitus and hyperacusis.
Topic: Current and Future Directions for Tinnitus and Hyperacusis Treatment
Tinnitus can be devastating in many patients, causing with emotional, hearing, sleep and concentration problems. Psychophysical procedures such as Minimum Masking Level are helpful for treatments focused on reducing the magnitude of the tinnitus. Questionnaires such as the Tinnitus Handicap Questionnaire and a new Tinnitus Primary Activities Questionnaire, are helpful for treatment focused on reducing reactions to tinnitus. There are no medications or dietary supplements that have been shown to reduce the magnitude of the tinnitus. Several counseling and sound therapies have been shown to reduce the reactions to tinnitus. We utilize a picture-based Tinnitus Activities Treatment. A variety of new sound therapies show promise. For decades, the use of electricity presented to the cochlea has been shown to reduce tinnitus in some patients, and there are several ongoing trials to suppress tinnitus in the cochlea and in the brain. Magnetic stimulation of the brain can also suppress tinnitus in some patients, but its clinical application is uncertain. Finally, there is now a greater appreciation that there are different subgroups of tinnitus patients, and the careful selection of subgroups is now being applied to new drug trials.
Friday April 12th - Conference Day #2
Session – 2a & 2b
Full day, Speech-Language Pathology
Speaker – Sean Sweeney, M. Ed.

He is a regular contributor to The ASHA Leader and CASLPA Communiqué regarding thoughtful and creative use of technology in therapy. His blog, SpeechTechie (www.speechtechie.com), looks at technology "through a language lens."
Topic: "Outside the Box" iPad for SLPs- Apps Through a Language Lens!
Abstract: Many great apps were developed specifically for speech and language interventions, but countless treasures in the App Store were designed for other purposes and can be applied creatively in our therapies! This workshop will cover key iPad functions for clinical use, a selection of great "dedicated" apps for speech and language therapy, and models of "repurposing" apps for therapeutic activities. A framework for evaluating apps will be presented, as well as examples of apps that can be used to target clinical objectives in categories such as gaming, visual exploration, organization, interactive reading, and creation. Apps related to professional development and strategies for finding apps will also be reviewed. This workshop will be primarily geared towards clinicians who work with school-aged children, however, much of the information can be generalized to older student populations.
Learning Objectives
Participants will be able to:
- Analyze Apps and utilize task analyses to isolate speech and language objectives in context.
- Apply criteria to evaluate Apps for clinical use.
- Design therapy sessions using Apps, with Pre- or Post- activities targeting speech and language objectives in context.
- Access a reading list of free online resources for further learning and exploration.

Topic: Helping Students to Get their Words Out and on Paper: Diagnostic and Teaching Strategies for School Age Oral and Written Language Expression
Abstract: This interactive, case-based, practical workshop will provide speech-language therapists with diagnostic and remedial strategies for aiding school age children who struggle with oral and written expression. Predictors of oral and written language comprehension and expression will be reviewed and "mini-cases" will be employed to aid clinicians' diagnostic pattern analysis skills. Then, theme-centered strategies for scaffolding narrative and expository expression at the word, sentence and paragraph levels will be explored via lecture, small-group discussion and hands-on activities.
Session 2g & 2h
Full day, Audiology
Speaker – Dr. Kathy Pichora-Fuller Ph. D. is a Full Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Toronto Mississauga. She is also an Adjunct Scientist at the Toronto Rehabilitation Institute and a Guest Professor at Linköping University in Sweden. She worked as a clinical audiologist and then the Supervisor of Audiology at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto where she was involved in research on hearing rehabilitation. She returned to complete a Ph.D. in Psychology at the University of Toronto (1991). Until 2002, she was a faculty member in the School of Audiology and Speech Sciences and Director of the Institute for Hearing Accessibility Research at the University of British Columbia. She combines her clinical experience in rehabilitative audiology with experimental psychology and has earned an international reputation for her interdisciplinary approach in linking research on auditory and cognitive processing during communication in everyday life. She is now applying her lab-based research on communication in healthy aging to try to find solutions to the communication problems of the increasing number of older adults who suffer from both hearing and cognitive impairments. She has been a President of the Canadian Association of Speech Language Pathologists and Audiologists (1984-87), and she served on the executive boards of the Canadian Acoustical Association (1998-2002, 2011-present), the International Collegium of Rehabilitative Audiology (1997-2003), the Canadian Academy of Audiology (2002-2004) and she was the Canadian representative to the International Society of Audiology (2004-2010). She is presently on the editorial boards of the International Journal of Audiology and Ear and Hearing.
Title: How hearing better relates to aging better
Part 1 (morning):
Aging ears and brains: Differences in how younger and older adults listen
1.5 hours: Auditory aging: More than one type of presbycusis
The existence of different sub-types of presbycusis has been known for at least a half century. Over the last two decades, laboratory research in human and animals has culminated in new knowledge about sensory, metabolic and neural presbycusis. This lab-based research is ready to be translated into clinical practice. New possibilities for differential diagnosis include the use of oto-acoustic emissions, ERP testing, as well as profiles based on audiometry and questionnaires. The selection of rehabilitative options includes new issues related to hearing signal processing as well as counseling and training. Current knowledge about the sub-types of presbycusis will be reviewed and new clinical approaches to presbycusis will be discussed.
1.5 hours: Cognitive aging and everyday listening
Listening in the complex and noisy situations of everyday life requires both auditory and cognitive processing. There are age-related declines in cognitive processing, including certain aspects of memory, attention and speed of processing; however, knowledge can remain stable be used to by older listeners to compensate for difficulties in hearing. Indeed, over decades, it seems that the brain reorganizes as aging adults learn how to listen in new ways. Examples of age-related changes in cognition will be reviewed and related to listening behaviours that are relevant to hearing health care.
Part 2 (afternoon):
When an older adult has both hearing impairment and cognitive impairment or dementia: Screening, assessment and management
1.5 hours: Hearing screening is important for health professionals testing cognition, but is cognitive screening important for audiologists?
Mounting research points to the connection between hearing loss and dementia; however, the mechanisms underlying the connection remain unknown. Possible connections will be described. Recently published diagnostic guidelines regarding mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia will be reviewed. The need to include hearing testing in protocols for screening and assessing MCI and dementia will be discussed. Conversely, ongoing research regarding the potential advantages of including cognitive screening in audiology protocols will be presented.
1.5 hours: Rehabilitative options for individuals and caregivers when a person has dual hearing and cognitive impairments
There is great interest in finding ways to stave off or slow down the onset of dementia. Whether hearing loss prevention and/or hearing rehabilitation could reduce the risk of dementia is an important question for researchers and clinicians. The issues to be covered will consider question such as: Can individuals with dementia benefit from hearing aids and/or other forms of audiologic rehabilitation? Does hearing rehabilitation alter the outcome of cognitive rehabilitation for individuals with MCI or dementia? How could audiologists offer help to caregivers for individuals with dual hearing and cognitive impairments?

"Facts are stubborn things," A. R. Lesage (1668–1747), once said. The accompanying article claims that "the crux of the argument is one of global energetics," in other words that the existence of an energy content in protons comparable to that in electrons is enough to uproot the time-honored notion that electrons are the principal mediator of energy transport during solar flares. However, simply having a large enough reservoir of energy in high-energy particles is not sufficient; one must also make sure that this energy is distributed amongst the high-energy particles in a manner that accounts for the intense hard X ray bursts that are such a ubiquitous signature of the impulsive phase of flares. Further, the energy must be deposited at the right place to account for a host of other observable signatures, such as the dramatic increase in the amount of 107K plasma that characterizes the main phase of the flare. Only deka-keV electrons and ˜MeV protons satisfy the energy deposition requirements and, while such electrons naturally account for the impulsive-phase hard X ray burst, MeV protons do not.

About this item
Zoey resumes her place as High Priestess at the House of Night but struggles to maintain a relationship with Stark in spite of Heath's loss, while Stevie Rae's secret bond with Rephaim grows stronger and increasingly dangerous.
""My love, speak to me. Tell me everything." Neferet went to Kalona, kneeling before him, stroking the soft, dark wings that unfurled loosely around the immortal. "
""What would you have me say?" He didn't meet her eyes. "
" "Zoey lives." Neferet's voice was flat, cold, lifeless."
""She does.""
""Then you owe me the subservience of your immortal soul." She started to walk away from him."
""Where are you going? What will happen next?""
" "It is quite simple. I will ensure Zoey is drawn back to Oklahoma. There, on my own terms, I will complete the task you failed.""
Exonerated by the Vampyre High Council and returned to her position of High Priestess at Tulsa's House of Night, Neferet has sworn vengeance on Zoey. Dominion over Kalona is only one of the weapons she plans to use against Z. But Zoey has found sanctuary on the Isle of Skye and is being groomed by Queen Sgiach to take over for her there. Being Queen would be cool, wouldn't it? Why should she return to Tulsa? After losing her human consort, Heath, she will never be the same - and her relationship with her super-hot-warrior, Stark, may never be the same either...
And what about Stevie Rae and Rephaim? The Raven Mocker refuses to be used against Stevie Rae, but what choice does he have when no one in the entire world, including Zoey, would be okay with their relationship? Does he betray his father or his heart?
In the pulse-pounding 8th book in the bestselling House of Night series, how far will the bonds of friendship stretch and how strong are the ties that bind one girl's heart?

Luke was an excellent host, made us feel really welcome and responded quickly to enquiries and requests. An lovely flat with great character, excellently appointed. We had a great time and would definitely stay again.
Made very welcome like one of the family. House in central Dumfries. Easy access to all amenities.
Luke cooked my supper which was delicious.
Very comfortable clean bed.
Transported back in time to when the house was built as there is the life story of the house visible in the building.
The place was old and rustic, which was great. The bathroom was modern and kept up with, and the place was overall an enjoyable experience. Luke was very helpful and friendly, he gave us keys for the night and took the time to give a tour of the place, tell us about the city and himself, and even drew us a map of some recommended places. Had a few enjoyable conversations.
What an unexpected treasure of a find right in the centre of Dumfries! Luke, an architect by profession, has carefully restored a whole Georgian house, built in the early 1800s, to be an extremely comfortable place to stay - but, very unusually, he has managed to leave the house very much in the 19th century! Which is to say: original locks on the doors, walls in what seem to be the original distemper hues of soft warm greens browns and creams - shades and finishes you rarely see today. Unvarnished stairs and floorboards.
And against this 200-year-old background, modern appliances, a lovely Smeg fridge and elegant lamps, a brilliant large jacuzzi bath, great bedding, warm cozy rooms, and very comfortable beds. An elegant and unusual mix of styles, and a treat to be able to straddle two such different time periods for a few days.
We had come to Dumfries for the screening at the town's South West Picture Show of a film made back in 1981 by my husband and his American colleague,and Luke managed to get a ticket to be there when we presented the film, which was much appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again on our next trip to Dumfries- thank you Luke!
Don't let the peeling paint on the front door deter you... or the clutter in the entry way. Your room is very clean, cozy, and comfortable. It is also a rarity in British accommodations, an "ensuite" - which means a private shower and 'water closet' (toilet) adjacent to the room. Luke is a very gracious host who has a deep knowledge and appreciation for the exceptionally rich architectural heritage of this area (ask him about the 17th century buildings that were recently torn down a few blocks away). Oh, and he makes an outstanding English breakfast if you ask. The place is also within easy walking distance of the center of the town, which is full of shops, restaurants, and historical amenities.
Luke was a genial and hospitable host who cheerily went out his way to be accommodating. His home is as charming as described here and his scrambled egg and bacon breakfast is not to be missed!
Luke is a very amiable and attentive host, he was very easy to liaise with to book the room and was there to meet me and help with visitors parking when I arrived.
The house is simply charming. A sensitively restored and delightful place full of quirks and filled with all manner of interesting features, books and other curios.
The room is spacious and airy with an en-suite bathroom and shower and a nice view into the garden. I had a very restful night's sleep.
Luke was welcoming and generous and I felt relaxed and at home in the house and comfortable to help myself to tea etc as advised and to make use of the kitchen and sitting room areas as required. I am a musician and I discovered that the house has a wonderful acoustic!
Luke is busy with work and in and out of the property but made sure I had keys and everything I needed and very generously set out breakfast for me in the morning before he left the house. His cat is also very helpful in looking after you when Luke is not there!!
The house is in the centre of Dumfries and a few minutes walk from all amenities and attractions such as Robert Burn's House and the Burn's Mausoleum. There is a lovely art gallery next door too which Luke and others helped to set up as a cooperative I believe.
This was a very pleasant stopover, I would be happy to stay again and I highly recommend Luke as a host.
Lovely house with plenty of character and quirks. Very handy for the centre of Dumfries and Luke was helpful, friendly and polite.
We loved staying with Luke. Luke's flat is spectacular with the character of a bygone era. Charming and very stylish just like the man himself! We felt very welcome and were well looked after. The bedroom was lovely, clean and tidy. We had a very restful night after enjoying a nice meal and bottle of wine with our host. I would definitely recommend Luke's place and we hope to stay there again.
Felt very welcome at Luke's apartment, wish we could've stayed longer. Very accommodating and generous host. We absolutely loved the gently preserved interiors, beautifully done. Very comfortable and handy location. Hoping to get back another time.
Luke was always courteous, and was a clean, tidy and an unobtrusive guest. He is welcome to stay anytime.

very friendly and warm welcome. the flat is perfectly located, near to the trai station, in a quiet and green neighbourhood. the room is well equipped and comfortable. zug is a pefect place for walks and short trips to zurich or luzern. and do not miss the Brauerei Baar!
Great place to stay with really friendly hosts.
The apartment was no more than five minutes' taxi drive from the Zug station. Markus provided clear instructions for us to find the apartment and the key. Our room was ready and comfortable, everything was provided for us including a bowl of fresh fruit, which was a welcome and kindly thought.
The area is very close to a bus stop and Markus was very helpful in pointing out the bus times and bus stop. Although we did not see much of Markus since we were out most of the time, we found him to be a welcoming, friendly and helpful host.
Very nice and comfortable room in a quiet part of town just 10 minutes stroll from Zug train station.
Markus is an excellent host and very helpful in assisting me during my stay. English TV channels also helped!
Very clean and confortable flat. Well located. And above that, Markus is a great host, very attentive, communicative and very interresting to discuss, No doubts, THE place to airbnb in Zug
I stayed at Markus`apartment four days and highly recommend his flat for anyone visiting Zug. Markus is very kind, considerate and helpful. He responded the same day after I inquired about renting the apartment. He arranged to have the keys available when I arrived. The apartment is spacious, beautifully decorated, warm, comfortable and quiet. I ate dinner with Markus several evenings and greatly enjoyed the conversation and laughter. The apartment is ideally located and I was able to walk to the train station in 10 minutes. It is situated close enough to Baar as well which hosts many international companies. In one hour, you can be at the ski slopes and return in the evening. Really great experience staying with Markus. Thanks again!
Ich war nur sehr kurz bei Markus.
Der Schlüssel wurde wie vorher abgemacht gelegt und ich konnte in der Nacht reingehen.
I really enjoyed the very relaxed atmosphere at Markus's appartment. The room is spacious and together with the facilities offered this is a prime quality location, only 10 minutes by foot from Zug center and train station. Markus is a very easy going man, with who you can have very interesting and serious conversations, as well as a good laugh. I can highly recommend both Markus and his place!
Markus is extremely helpful person. When he came to know that i am coming to Zug with two kids then he himself gave me his master bed room and even extended our Stay as per weather. My kids enjoyed and played a lot with him and He became their ''Swiss Grandfather''. I and my wife surprised when we saw such a clean home, how a person with his age maintain so clean house.
The most emotional aspect when he came to station to drop us and gave very good gift to his ''Indian Grandchildren''.
God Bless you Markus and it was feel family factor!!
Me and my friend did not meet Markus as he was away to Spain. However he made all arrangements ready for our arrival. He arranged his friend to hand over the key to us and also made a backup plan in case we missed his friend. Markus's apartment is just 10 mins walk from Zug train station. It is a spacious, cozy apartment. We would definitely recommend this place to others who are visiting Zug.

Do you like action and non-fiction books. If you answered yes then you are in luck. The book "The Lost Stories" written by John Flanagan is the book for you.
Imagine you are in the middle ages. You have to make your normal rounds as your duty as a ranger. When, suddenly your teacher comes up to you to say " I think it is about time you know how your father died Will." At first Will was scared to know but he was also eager to know also. So his mentor Halt says that his father and him were battling Mograth when suddenly Will's father gets hit by a spear and he falls back a bit but he kept on going so he ripped the spear from his body and threw it back at the attacker who threw it. Will was shocked at this, then Halt continued. He saw the soldier in trouble so he went to help but was cornered and WIll's father saw this and went to go help, but he got hit and still he kept going to save a stranger in need.
If you want to find out what happened to Halt and Will's father then you can get the book "The Lost Stories." There are also other books to the series like the The Ruins of Gorlan, The Burning Bridge, and so many more. Go find these books at your local bookstore and enjoy.

Great ending to an amazing series.

The time in Havana, Cuba
Havana, Cuba.-Thirty students from the University of Virginiawere some of the first US citizens to come to Cuba after the December 17 announcement by presidents Barack Obama and Raul Catro to reestablish diplomatic relations and upon returning home the students, from the Virgina University´s Darden School of Business told their Cuba experience.
According to Virgina public radio and other local media, the students and their professors made surprising discoveries on the island. Professor Greg Fairchild, who has been to many developing nations, said that arriving at airports can produce a cultural shock, but he adds:
Havana, Cuba.-In Cuba, the National Electoral Commission (CEN) finalizes details for the next partial elections, traditionally characterized by the people's enthusiasm and wide participation, after a satisfactory nomination process. In a press conference on Monday, Alina Balseiro, president of the CEN, informed that 27,379 Cubans were proposed at the meetings held to nominate candidates to the municipal assemblies of the People's Power, among them 9,815 women, that is, 35.84 percent of the total.
Balseiro highlighted that this percentage is the fruit of efforts to acknowledge the intense work that women have carried out for years in the communities.
Havana, Cuba.-We have come here fully aware of the deep differences between our two countries as to their political systems, democracy and international law, but it is also possible to hold a civilized dialog on any issue, including human rights, said the Cuban permanent representative at the United Nations Anayansi Rodriguez in reference the human rights talks between Cuba and the United States, in Washington.
Rodriguez made her statements while speaking to Cuban reporters covering the US-Cuba talks on March 31 on human rights. She said this exchange is one more example of Cuba´s willingness to address any issue with the United States on equal grounds and reciprocity. The Cuban official delegation to the talks arrived in Washington on Sunday, headed by Pedro Luis Pedroso, deputy general director for Multilateral Affairs and International Law at the Cuban Foreign Ministry.

The irrigators' survey project provides the primary data for use in the socio-economic monitoring of the water sharing plans in NSW. The NSW Office of Water invites irrigators to participate in voluntary telephone surveys covering questions regarding farm enterprises, water use and its efficiency, water trading, employment, and other economic and social indicators.
The information collected through the surveys will enhance future industry and government decision-making on water planning and management, and contribute to the review of water sharing plans.
The Irrigators' Survey 2013 is the fourth survey undertaken since 2006 to monitor socio economic indicators in NSW water sharing plan areas.
The 2013 survey was open to all irrigators (approximately 25,000) covering regulated river, unregulated river and groundwater sources across the state. This included members or shareholders in the private irrigation areas such as Murray Irrigation, Murrumbidgee Irrigation, Coleambally Irrigation, Western Murray Irrigation, and other Private Irrigation Districts and Trusts.
For the 2013 survey 1,860 telephone interviews were conducted by a consultant between March and August 2013.
The report below gives the outcomes of the 2013 statewide survey and provides a comparison with the aggregated data from the 2009 and the 2010 surveys.
Different climatic conditions prevailed during the survey periods, and therefore the results of this report should be interpreted with caution.
The Irrigators' Survey 2010 was the first repeat survey and third in the series. This survey targeted irrigators in areas where water sharing plans were first implemented in 2004, the same group covered by the 2006 survey. This includes major regulated river water licence holders and shareholders in private irrigation companies such as Murray Irrigation, Murrumbidgee Irrigation, Coleambally Irrigation, Western Murray Irrigation, Private Irrigation Districts and Trusts.
Nearly 1,250 irrigators were interviewed for the 2010 survey. The results of the 2010 survey were compared to the baseline data collected in the 2006 survey in order to measure changes.
The report below gives the outcomes of the 2010 survey and provides a comparison with the outcomes of the 2006 survey:
The comparative results of 2006 and 2010 cover survey periods with variable climatic conditions, and should be viewed with care.
The 2009 irrigators' survey completed the benchmarks to monitor social and economic changes over time in the water sharing plans areas. The survey targeted irrigators in areas where water sharing plans were implemented since 2004, or are currently under development. This included water licence holders of many of the unregulated rivers and the large inland groundwater systems across NSW.
Nearly 1,450 irrigators from these areas across NSW participated in this voluntary survey to help build a detailed baseline data and profile of the state's irrigation industry.
The report below gives the outcomes of the 2009 survey:
The 2009 survey was conducted when significant areas of NSW were in drought, and should be viewed with care.
Nearly 1,130 irrigators participated in the 2006 survey. It targeted irrigators from areas where 31 water sharing plans were implemented in 2004. These water sharing plan areas were largely the regulated river systems across NSW and represented 80 per cent of surface water entitlement. The 2006 survey set benchmarks for these areas in order to monitor social and economic changes over time.
The report below gives the outcomes of the 2006 survey:
The 2006 survey was conducted at a time of drought and as such, the results should be viewed with care.

Speak, his debut album, was released last September. You may have heard his song "Legs" when your iPod broke and you had to listen to the radio. It is also possible that you heard it while buying some fresh digs at Hollister, grabbing some fresh produce at various chain supermarkets, picking out fresh paint at Home Depot, taking a nap on a comfy mattress at Big Lots or even while eating the Endless Lunch for only $6.99 at T.G.I. Fridays. Basically, the only way you could have not heard "Legs" is if you shop at Whole Foods or Lowe's. Download Coons's cover of the Jackson 5's "I Want You Back." Seth Glier will grab you—if not with his powerful falsetto or his melodic prowess, then with what Performer Magazine calls his "intoxicating groove." The 20-year-old singer, pianist, and guitarist aims straight for the gut on his MPress Records debut, The Trouble with People. Jesse Ruben's story begins in the heart of a musical family. His father and grandfather were both professional musicians, performing at weddings, Bar Mitzvahs, corporate events, and other gatherings in Philadelphia and its environs. Ruben recalls watching in awe as his dad's band rehearsed rock, pop, and r&b hits. He began taking piano lessons, but lost interest during his adolescence. "I had told myself I couldn't play guitar because that was my dad's instrument," he says. "Then I realized how stupid that was." His father bought him a cheap guitar with the promise of a better instrument if he made progress; the guitar felt right in Ruben's hands, and by age 16 he was writing songs.

The Kamora Quartet features Dragon's original music as well as original compositions from other members of the group. Dragon recently started a record company called Kamora Records, a collective of young artists, primarily jazz musicians, who are constantly pursuing the dream of playing music for a living. In addition, he is collaborating on pieces with his sister Ashley to bring the arts of music and dance together to attain a freedom of expression that is so important in the arts. This concert is presented by Harvard Longwood Campus and takes place at the Harvard School of Public Health. Admission: Free Read more about Kamora Trio Merrily James Wednesday / September 1, 2010 / 12:30 p.m. Harvard Longwood Campus 25 Shattuck Street Boston MA United States 02115 Merrily James Growing up in Seattle, Merrily James learned to sing by touring with the Total Experience Gospel Choir. At age 17 she was picked up by Showtime at the Apollo and had the audience singing along with her to Aretha Franklin on the national television series hosted by Sinbad. James has shared the stage with Bobby McFerrin, Phillip Bailey (Earth, Wind & Fire), Don Was, and Rocco Prestia (Tower of Power). She was selected as the sole performer for Google's grand opening celebration (Cambridge) in 2008 and has been featured with the New York Songwriters Circle.

He will be joined by the Alvin Foster Orchestra, a full orchestra and choir composed of Berklee alumni, faculty, students, and members of the Boston community. It will be an evening of celebration and retrospection honoring the music and the trailblazers of soul, rhythm, gospel, jazz, black arts songs, and contemporary music. Alvin Foster, a Berklee alumnus, has demonstrated his compositional skills, vocal prowess, and ability to execute several musical styles that are part of the foundation of the Berklee curriculum. Watson has invited Alvin Foster to be the evening's musical director and conductor. Watson, one of Foster's mentors, is inviting several members of the Berklee community to present an evening of music that captures the essence of the Berklee mission statement: "The mission of Berklee College of Music is to educate, train, and develop students to excel in music as a career." Alvin has transcribed and composed several string and horn parts to several of my original compositions. The musical selections represent the part of the African diaspora that affirms the fluidity of the traditional definitions currently associated with soul, blues, jazz, contemporary pop, rhythm, and gospel music. The music presented will tap into the tradition characterized by Nina Simone, Sweet Honey and the Rock, Donny Hathaway, the Last Poets, Gil Scott Heron, and the Sounds of Blackness. The music borrows from all of the traditional categories that popularly define black music and thereby is an authentic homage to the black musical tradition.

Thompson, who was described in Rolling Stone as the "thinking man's guitar god," is among the most distinctive of guitar virtuosos, capable of breathtaking drama and sublime delicacy, depending on the song and the amp setting. Over the course of his career, Thompson has earned numerous awards and honors, including the Ivor Novello Award for songwriting, the Orville Gibson Award for guitarists, and a spot in the Top 20 of Rolling Stone's list of all-time guitar greats.

Rawlinna Station
Rawlinna Station is a pastoral lease and sheep station located about 339 kilometres (211 mi) east of Kambalda in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia. The locality of Rawlinna and the Transcontinental Railway are situated along the boundary of the station.
The station occupies an area of approximately 8,000 square kilometres (3,089 sq mi) or 2.5 million acres in the remote south east of Western Australia, making it the largest sheep station in Australia. It is currently owned by the Jumbuck Pastoral Company.[1] The station encompasses part of the Nullabor Plain so the geology changes from the red dirt of the gold fields to the white limestone outcrops that the plain is famous for. The vegetation changes from woodlands to the east to drought resistant shrubs and grsses on the plain.[2]
Feral dogs are a problem to graziers on the Nullabor so a 3 metres (10 ft) dog proof fence was constructed with marsupial netting at the base; it is 370 kilometres (230 mi) in length. A separate 900 square kilometres (347 sq mi) block adjoins the fence that is also dog proofed with a solar powered electric fence. Stock are watered from 37 bores in 87 main paddocks, along with other holding paddocks. Some of the bores are 140 metres (459 ft) deep and are all powered by windmills.[3]
A homestead exists about 11 kilometres (7 mi) south west of the railway siding. A huge shearing complex, known as the Depot Outstation, was built in the middle of the property in 1967. The outstation has a 16-stand shearing shed, an overseers house, shearers and station hands accommodation, mess and kitchen facilities.[3]
The traditional owners of the land are the Mirning people,[4] the Ngalea and Wangai peoples, who have inhabited the area for over 10,000 years.
John Eyre and his companion Wylie passed through the area as they crossed the Nullabor in the expedition of 1841. Eyre commented that the Nullabor was "a blot on the face of nature".[2]
Established in 1962 by Hugh G. MacLachlan, of the South Australian pastoral family, the station has a comparatively short history compared to other properties of its type around Australia.[1]
Through the later part of the twentieth century the area proved to be prime pastoral and breeding country when the seasonal conditions were good. In those days the station held between 40,000 to 60,000 sheep, and annually produced 1100 to 1700 bales of wool.[3]
In 2001, 78,417 sheep were shorn for 2177 bales of wool.[3] In 2014 around 53,000 sheep were shorn and 1285 bales of wool
The station had a poor season in 2005 with only 4 inches (102 mm) of rain falling compared to the normal average of 9 inches (229 mm). By 2006 things had improved with 6 inches (152 mm) falling before the onset of winter, guaranteeing that winter grasses would germinate and stock would have adequate feed for the flock of 32,000 sheep on the property at that stage.[5]
Ross Wood, the station manager, retired in 2007. Wood was the third manager employed at Rawinna since 1967, the other two being David Seaton and Murray McQuie.[3] The station manager in 2012 was Michael Simon, who had replaced Wood in 2007. Simon started with Jumbuck in 1983 and now runs Rawlinna along with 14 staff. The property is stocked with approximately 60,000 sheep with wool being sent to Adelaide for testing and sale.[1] The record number of sheep shorn at Rawlinna is 80,000.[5]
