Pin It
Split is the largest city in Dalmatia and it's largest ferry port. For many years the city was treated as a point on the transit routes towards the islands and resorts of Central Dalmatia.
The city's treasures were hidden behind the walls of
Diocletian's palace
, and tourists would at best whizz round its narrow streets before catching their ferry. Today's tourists know, however, that Split's narrow streets hide a multitude of treasures. Small boutiques, galleries,
restaurants and cafes
sometimes literally built into those ancient walls provide an environment where the breath of history mingles with contemporary design and the attractive Dalmatian lifestyle. If you choose to explore the secrets of Split, on those warm stone pavements you'll bump into Roman warriors and even Emperor Diocletian himself, and all the while you'll be accompanied by the harmonious melodies of the
Dalmatian a capella choirs
. Give in to the scent of fish on the barbecue and enjoy a fresh, natural lunch with olive oil and home made wine. After lunch, do as the locals do and enjoy a nap while the heat of the day gives way to a golden afternoon. On the city beach, perhaps you can join in a game of the local sport
, or relax in the shade of scented pines on the
Marjan peninsula
. All of this means that Split, more than ever before, is a serious rival to an adventure on those very beautiful

In accordance with the laws and customs of our people, the Democratic Pre-primary was held on March 10th unfortunately, much earlier than I had hoped for. The deadline for signature collection is 10 days after the Pre-primary, March 20th. I just didn't have the money or resources to get the signature-gathering done in that time frame. If I had raised more money I could have had people work for me longer, or if I had gotten onto TV, local or national, I might have generated enough attention to get volunteers. I looked into TV ads, which are shockingly affordable for campaigns, but the political rates don't start until April. Newspaper advertising was more expensive than I could afford, and neither of my appearances in the paper generated much of a response from the public.
I could try to blame all sorts of things for the campaign ending early, but I'm solely responsible. It was a long shot from the start and with a budget and network as small as I had, mistakes were costly. Despite whatever failures I've suffered, I've learned a lot. I have a much more nuanced understanding of the political process, engaging the public, and the issues than I did when I first started. The education I received has been invaluable.
However the problems that spurred me into running still remain. Wealth inequality is only getting worse, and jobs are still largely stagnant. The ones that are coming back they aren't of the same quality as those that were lost. SOPA is tabled, but there are a thousand other less well known efforts eroding the foundations of the Internet. Civil rights and liberties continue to erode through the militarization of police forces and the ever-expanding surveillance apparatus. These issues haven't gone away, and aren't going to go away, until Democrats get serious about what they're supposed to stand for.
It's great that we passed a healthcare bill, but we aren't done there. It's great that we passed a stimulus bill in 2009, but it didn't go nearly far enough. The bottom line is we haven't recovered and we won't recover until we start addressing our problems like adults. Our priorities as a country are so far out of whack that we're wasting time talking about contraception instead of how to help out the millions of people who lost their homes and jobs. We have to crush the virulent meme that people who need help are lazy, bad people, or don't deserve it because they didn't work hard enough.
We used to be the envy of the world because of our standard of living, upward mobility, and freedom. All of those things are being ground into dust by elitist authoritarian jackasses like Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. Staving off these lunatics isn't enough. We have to push back harder than them to gain back the ground we've been losing for decades. Complacency isn't going to change anything and neither is cynicism. We can do better and we have to. My campaign is over, but I'm not done. I'll return in a few years more formidable and firey than ever.
Thanks to everyone who supported me and helped out with the effort. I couldn't have come as far alone. Here's hoping more regular people get involved in the political process. Democracy doesn't work if we don't participate.

Sami Spenner and Amanda Vorthmann each set a school record, and several athletes set personal-bests as the UNO track and field team also competed at the Prairie Wolf Invitational on Friday.
Spenner broke Foluso Makinde's nearly eight-year-old long jump mark with a leap of 20-2� — two inches farther than the previous mark — to claim first place. UNO's Denneil Shaw tied for third with a jump of 18-5�.
Vorthmann broke her own school record in the 5,000 meters with a time of 17:38.19. She set the previous mark at the Cyclone Holiday Preview on Dec. 7.
Spenner also won the high jump with a personal-best mark of 5-7�. Teammate Kathie-Lee Laidley came in second with a leap of 5-7.
Ashley Kildow took first in the mile run with a time of 5:11.52, her second personal-best in the event this season.
Maja Mihalinec, competing this season after being plagued with an injury last year, won the 60 meter-dash with a time of 7.58.
Spenner finished a busy day with a fourth-place finish in the 60-meter hurdles with a personal-best time of 8.92.
Lauren Psota had a personal-best in the 600 meters, posting a time of 1:35.43, good for fourth.
In the 1,000 meters, Lydia Martin was fourth with a time of 3:09.26, just ahead of teammate Carolyn Newhouse, who clocked a time of 3:09.50.
The Mavericks return to action when they compete in the Jack Jennett Invitational at Northern Iowa on Jan. 25 and 26.

Health Tip: Use Proper Form When Running
(HealthDay News) -- Using proper running form can help prevent injuries and make running a little easier and more comfortable.
The American Council on Exercise mentions these suggestions:
Bend your elbows at a 90-degree angle and keep them close to your body, with your hands relaxed.
Relax your shoulders and keep them down; drive from your shoulders, not your elbows.
Avoid leaning forward at the waist, but keep a slight forward lean at the ankles.
Lift your knees higher as they move forward.
Hit the ground with your heel, rolling forward onto the ball of your foot. As you lift your foot off the ground, push off with the front of your foot.
Hold your head steady and level, and try not to bounce.

Pentacyclic Triterpenoids from the Medicinal Herb, Centella asiatica (L.) Urban
Department of Biochemistry, University of Johannesburg, Auckland Park, South Africa

Abstract: Centella asiatica accumulates large quantities of pentacyclic triterpenoid saponins, collectively known as centelloids. These terpenoids include asiaticoside, centelloside, madecassoside, brahmoside, brahminoside, thankuniside, sceffoleoside, centellose, asiatic-, brahmic-, centellic- and madecassic acids. The triterpene saponins are common secondary plant metabolites and are synthesized via the isoprenoid pathway to produce a hydrophobic triterpenoid structure (aglycone) containing a hydrophilic sugar chain (glycone). The biological activity of saponins has been attributed to these characteristics. In planta, the Centella triterpenoids can be regarded as phytoanticipins due to their antimicrobial activities and protective role against attempted pathogen infections. Preparations of C. asiatica are used in traditional and alternative medicine due to the wide spectrum of pharmacological activities associated with these secondary metabolites. Here, the biosynthesis of the centelloid triterpenoids is reviewed; the range of metabolites found in C. asiatica, together with their known biological activities and the chemotype variation in the production of these metabolites due to growth conditions are summarized. These plant-derived pharmacologically active compounds have complex structures, making chemical synthesis an economically uncompetitive option. Production of secondary metabolites by cultured cells provides a particularly important benefit to manipulate and improve the production of desired compounds; thus biotechnological approaches to increase the concentrations of the metabolites are discussed.

A burglar who was shot five times by a Loganville mother will spend the next 10 years in jail, but not before he pleaded for mercy.
A Walton County judge sentenced Paul Ali Slater to 20 years -- with 10 to serve -- for the home invasion back in January. The judge said the presence of the mother and her children was a factor in the sentence.Prosecutors say Slater pursued a mother and her two children through the house, but Slater told the judge he never intended to harm anyone. He said that his intent was to steal jewelry in order to pay bills. He said he broke in at a time when no one would be there.Slater told the judge he has six kids.Prosecutors say he also has a long arrest record.After being shot by the mother, Slater spent a month in the hospital. He said that he still has limited use of one hand.

The team with the biggest payroll in baseball is in last place? What a bust. I guess Torre really wasn't the problem after all.
Yankee fan?
Fandom is besides the point. The point is how can you spend more money than any other team in MLB and be in last place in your division? You could have spent LESS money than other other team and achieved the same thing. It's time for the Yankees FO to stop blaming the players and coaches and take a look at itself.
Were you saying the same thing the last 2 seasons as well? Let's see how things play out before we start playing the payroll card. Besides, it's not as if they have been significantly adding to the payroll via free agency the past couple years. That payroll will be much, much lower at the end of this season. Giambi, Pavano, Farnsworth, Mussina, Pettitte, Abreu are all off the books.
go back a year to the day and I bet you find this exact same thread...
no playoffs in June.
There sure are a lot of dumbass threads in this forum.
Yanks will get hot and be fine in a AL that is not as strong as some here feel.
This payroll card on Yank fans end however is simply wrong. All the players you list as coming off the books with the exception of Pavano will need to be replaced with only Giambi's salary being much higher than what they will have to pay for a equal replacement. It also will cost 7 million to buy out Pavano and Giambi's 09 options.
I also am not positive that Moose, Andy and Abreu are not back next year albeit at slightly lower salaries. Giambi could also ink a cheaper deal with the Yanks and you can also bet your life they take on payroll THIS season to fix the bullpen and possibly add a SP for insurance.
Let's wait and see what next years payroll looks like before we start defending the payroll card as you call it. I know the farm system will be cited as the alternative but let's face it, the farm other than non highly touted Rasner has not panned out this season.

but i thought phil hughes is the best and a can't miss... and what about that stud ian kennedy.... have they even won 1 game -combined- yet this season?
Yeah , I am a Yankee fan...so they are mediocre right now...so what. This roster is expensive and the Yankees still make more money than any other team in the league. I wan to know if you are a Met fan...cause I notice when the Mets win a few in a row some of the fans get a little chirpy. By the way this thread sucks...I would rather read a jetman73 or sbiii thread any day...
Anyone except for a Mets fan can say anything about payroll. The Mets should be at least the second best team in baseball based on salary.
The whole payroll argument is old, tired and needs to be put to rest.
Enjoy your team and stop worrying about what other teams do. The grade school arguments should have ended a long time ago, unless you're still in grade school, of course.

Born on February 15, 1564, in Pisa, Italy, Galileo Galilei was a mathematics professor who made pioneering observations of nature with long-lasting implications for the study of physics. He also constructed a telescope and supported the Copernican theory, which supports a sun-centered solar system. Galileo was accused twice of heresy by the church for his beliefs, and wrote books on his ideas. He died in Arcetri, Italy, on January 8, 1642.
"And yet it moves."
"All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them."
"The Bible shows the way to go to heaven, not the way the heavens go."
Early Life
Galileo Galilei was born on February 15, 1564, in Pisa in the Duchy of Florence, Italy. He was the first of six children born to Vincenzo Galilei, a well-known musician and music theorist, and Giulia Ammannati. In 1574, the family moved to Florence, where Galileo started his formal education at the Camaldolese monastery in Vallombrosa.
In 1583, Galileo entered the University of Pisa to study medicine. Armed with high intelligence and talent, he soon became fascinated with many subjects, particularly mathematics and physics. While at Pisa, Galileo was exposed to the Aristotelian view of the world, then the leading scientific authority and the only one sanctioned by the Roman Catholic Church. At first, Galileo supported this view, like any other intellectual of his time, and was on track to be a university professor. However, due to financial difficulties, Galileo left the university in 1585 before earning his degree.
Academic Career
Galileo continued to study mathematics, supporting himself with minor teaching positions. During this time he began his two-decade study on objects in motion and published The Little Balance, describing the hydrostatic principles of weighing small quantities, which brought him some fame. This gained him a teaching post at the University of Pisa, in 1589. There Galileo conducted his fabled experiments with falling objects and produced his manuscript Du Motu (On Motion), a departure from Aristotelian views about motion and falling objects. Galileo developed an arrogance about his work, and his strident criticisms of Aristotle left him isolated among his colleagues. In 1592, his contract with the University of Pisa was not renewed.
Galileo quickly found a new position at the University of Padua, teaching geometry, mechanics and astronomy. The appointment was fortunate, for his father had died in 1591, leaving Galileo entrusted with the care of his younger brother Michelagnolo. During his 18-year tenure at Padua, he gave entertaining lectures and attracted large crowds of followers, further increasing his fame and his sense of mission.
Controversial Findings
In 1604, Galileo published The Operations of the Geometrical and Military Compass, revealing his skills with experiments and practical technological applications. He also constructed a hydrostatic balance for measuring small objects. These developments brought him additional income and more recognition. That same year, Galileo refined his theories on motion and falling objects, and developed the universal law of acceleration, which all objects in the universe obeyed.

Big Data Protects Intel's Info
Security Business Intelligence (SBI) earned Intel top honors in the CSO40 awards, which recognize security projects that have delivered outstanding business value.
By Bob Violino
April 03, 2013 — CSO —
These days, lots of companies are looking for ways to use big data and analytics to improve their security, but Intel is one of the first to actually pull it off.
The company's initiative, called Security Business Intelligence (SBI), earned the company top honors in the CSO40 awards, which recognize security projects that have delivered outstanding business value.
Also see: Next Stop for Security: Business Intelligence and Business Services
Intel IT began building its SBI platform in 2010. "SBI is one of the pillars of our Protect to Enable enterprise security strategy," says Malcolm Harkins, Intel's chief security and privacy officer. "The ability to filter and distill the billions of events per day brings tremendous security value to the enterprise."
The Protect to Enable strategy focuses on applying reasonable levels of protection, which allows information to flow through the organization and gives users a better experience while at the same time reducing risk.
In 2012, Intel made significant progress in implementing this architecture, which is based on four pillars. The first pillar is identity and access management, which allows users' access privileges to be dynamically adjusted as the level of risk changes. Intel has tested this system in its production environment and continues to refine these tools for a range of devices, locations and infrastructure technologies.
The second pillar is data protection. Intel is implementing technologies to safeguard its information when it's created, stored and in transit. The company has expanded deployment of enterprise-rights-management software and implemented new data-loss-prevention technologies to better track sensitive data.
The third pillar is infrastructure. For example, Intel has implemented secure trust zones within its enterprise private cloud that enables it to virtualize internally and externally facing applications with higher security requirements.
The final pillar is SBI. "As we allow access to enterprise systems from more devices, we need improved detection and analytical capabilities," says Alan Ross, senior principal engineer. "We deployed a flexible dashboard to view malware infection data down to the machine level and added a predictive engine that enables proactive protection and simulations to improve our ability to respond to threats."
The primary goals of the SBI platform are to use big data and advanced analytics to improve Intel's ability to predict, prevent, detect and respond to cyberthreats; develop the tools and reporting capabilities to distill large amounts of data into meaningful analysis; and use the resulting analysis to cut overall costs by reducing or eliminating other security controls that may be less effective. Intel IT is also looking at ways to use trusted sensor and event information from its platforms to improve the quality and reliability of the SBI system.

Alliance Defending Freedom
Alliance Defending Freedom | |
Abbreviation | ADF |
Motto | For Faith, For Justice |
Formation | 1994 |
Type | Non-profit |
Purpose/focus | Christian advocacy |
Headquarters | Scottsdale, Arizona |
President/CEO | Alan Sears |
Website | www.alliancedefendingfreedom.org |
Former name | Alliance Defense Fund |
Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF, formerly Alliance Defense Fund) is an American conservative Christian nonprofit organization with the stated goal of "defending the right to hear and speak the Truth through strategy, training, funding, and litigation."[1] ADF was founded in 1994 by Bill Bright (founder, Campus Crusade for Christ), Larry Burkett (founder, Crown Financial Ministries), James Dobson (founder, Focus on the Family), D. James Kennedy (founder, Coral Ridge Ministries), Marlin Maddoux (president, International Christian Media), and Donald Wildmon (founder, American Family Association), along with the leadership of over thirty other conservative Christian organizations.[2]
ADF supports the inclusion of invocations at public meetings and the use of religious displays (such as crosses and other religious monuments) on public lands and in public buildings.[3] The ADF opposes abortion, and believes that healthcare workers have a right to decline participation in the performance of abortions and other practices an individual health worker finds morally objectionable. ADF opposes same-sex marriage and civil unions, as well as adoption by same-sex couples based on their belief that children are best raised by a married mother and father. ADF believes parents should be able to opt their children out of sex education in schools that run counter to a family's religious beliefs.[3]
ADF states that it has "had various roles of significance" in thirty-eight wins before the United States Supreme Court, including such cases as Rosenberger v. University of Virginia, Schenck v. Pro-Choice Network of Western New York, and Boy Scouts of America v. Dale.[4] ADF represented a litigant in Perry v. Schwarzenegger in which the Supreme Court ruling in effect allowed same-sex marriage to proceed in California.
On July 9, 2012, the Alliance Defense Fund changed its name to Alliance Defending Freedom. The name change was a strategic initiative designed to reflect the organization's shift in focus from funding allied attorneys to litigating cases.[5]
ADF's President, CEO, and General Counsel is Alan Sears. Sears was previously a Justice Department official under the administration of President Ronald Reagan, and has co-authored two books with Craig Osten: The Homosexual Agenda: Exposing the Principal Threat to Religious Freedom Today and The ACLU vs. America: Exposing the Agenda to Redefine Moral Values.
The ADF is based in Scottsdale, Arizona. It has six branch offices, located in Sacramento, California; Lawrenceville, Georgia; Shreveport, Louisiana; Memphis, Tennessee; Washington, D.C., and Olathe, Kansas. In addition, the ADF Center for Academic Freedom is located in Nashville, Tennessee.[6]
Major donors for the organization include the Covenant Foundation, the Bolthouse Foundation[7] and the Edgar and Elsa Prince Foundation, whose vice president is Blackwater Worldwide founder Erik Prince.[8]
Programs and initiatives[edit]
ADF's National Litigation Academy[9] and Blackstone Legal Fellowship[10] are aimed at training lawyers to pursue cases from a socially conservative perspective based on Christian ideals.
The National Litigation Academy brings together law school professionals, litigators, and constitutional lawyers for courses of study. Volunteer and allied attorneys are offered training in areas of law that relate to religious freedom, same-sex marriage, and pro-life issues. The training is provided at no charge, but each attorney pledges to spend 450 hours of pro bono time furthering ADF's mission by representing Christian organizations and individuals.[11][12] ADF states that more than 1,200 attorneys have attended the National Litigation Academy with pro-bono service totaling more than $82 million to date.[12]
The Blackstone Legal Fellowship is a nine-week summer internship program designed for Christian law students.[13] Interns work closely with legal professionals and advocate a Conservative Christian worldview. According to ADF, the goal of the Blackstone Legal Fellowship is "to train a new generation of lawyers who will rise to positions of influence and leadership as legal scholars, litigators, judges, and perhaps even Supreme Court justices, and who will work to ensure that justice is carried out in America's courtrooms."[14] More specifically, ADF states that the Blackstone Legal Fellowship purposes to "[e]quip Christian law students to engage the legal culture with biblical and natural law principles," to "[g]ive law students confidence that the foundation of law on which our country was established is rationally superior to any competing legal philosophy," and to "[p]rofoundly influence Christian law students to take their training and knowledge into positions of influence where they can bring about needed change in America's legal system."[14]
The Center for Academic Freedom was established in 2006 and works to protect the right of students and teachers to freely express their religious beliefs.[15]
Day of Truth[edit]
The Alliance Defense Fund states that it established the Day of Truth[16] "to counter the promotion of the homosexual agenda and express an opposing viewpoint from a Christian perspective."[17] The Day of Truth is held annually following the Day of Silence, which is organized by the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network.
The ADF claims that students who have attempted to speak against same-sex relationships and behavior have been censored or, in some cases, punished for their actions under campus hate-speech rules, such as Chase Harper, a high school student whose activism sparked the first Day of Truth. Harper was suspended for wearing a T-shirt that read "Be Ashamed' and "Our School Embraced What God Has Condemned," and on the back read, "Homosexuality is Shameful" and "Romans 1:27." The ADF filed an unsuccessful federal lawsuit against school officials on behalf of Harper, claiming his religious freedoms were violated. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court.[18][19][20]
The Day of Truth was first organized in 2005. According to ADF, over 1,100 students in 350 schools participated in the first Day of Truth.[21]
ADF announced that beginning in 2009, it had passed on its leadership role in the Day of Truth to an ex-gay organization, Exodus International,[22] who has prepared the resources for the event.[23] On October 6, Exodus International stated they will no longer be supporting or leading the Day of Truth.[24]
On November 11, 2010, evangelical Christian organization Focus on the Family announced it had acquired the Day of Truth event and was renaming it to the Day of Dialogue. The goal would remain unchanged.[25]
Notable cases[edit]
The Alliance Defense Fund, working with other socially conservative organizations and Christian groups, as well as allied litigators, litigates cases involving religious freedom, abortion issues, and same-sex marriage.[26]
- Rosenberger v. University of Virginia (1995). ADF provided funding to defend a student newspaper which was denied university funding due to its religious nature. The case was litigated all the way to the Supreme Court.[27]
- Good News Club v. Milford Central School (2001). The ADF assisted in this case in which the Supreme Court ruled that religious clubs must be afforded equal access to school facilities.[28]
- Williams v. Vidmar (2004). In November 2004, the ADF filed a lawsuit on behalf of a Cupertino, California elementary school teacher against his school principal and school board members.[29] Williams has been described as "the seminal equal access case."[30] The lawsuit was settled without money changing hands and without changes in school policies.[31]
- Perry v. Schwarzenegger. ADF represented Proposition 8 proponents ProtectMarriage.com in the Federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the proposition, which limited marriage in California to one man and one woman.[32] Their participation generated some criticism. The religious rights law firm Liberty Counsel, which has litigated opposition to same-sex marriage in California since 2004, criticized Alliance Defense Fund's handling of the case. "ADF presented only two witnesses at trial, following the 15 witnesses presented by those who challenged Proposition 8. Even Judge Walker commented that he was concerned by the lack of evidence presented by ADF on behalf of Prop 8."[33]
- The ADF defended Elane Photography in its appeal of being found in violation of the New Mexico Human Rights Act for refusing to photograph a 2006 civil commitment ceremony. In August 2013 the New Mexico Supreme Court found in favor of Willock and that the photographer was in violation of the act.[34][35][36]
- The ADF served as co-counsel defending Sally Howe Smith, Court Clerk for Tulsa County (Oklahoma), whose denial of a marriage license to a same-sex couple was challenged in Bishop v. Oklahoma. Smith lost in U.S. District Court in January 2014.[37]
- In Bostic v. Rainey, the ADF represented Ms. Michele McQuigg, defendant-intervenor in her official capacity as Prince William County Clerk of Circuit Court; the defendents lost in US District Court in February 2014.[38]
The Southern Poverty Law Center notes that "The ADF has a record of sharp anti-gay bigotry." and "Today, the group is increasingly committed to international anti-LGBT work."[39]

Updated May 15, 2013 - 1:33 pm
In retrospect, Carpenter at No. 25 doesn't look as bad
A pair of injury-plagued seasons hasn't validated the Seahawks' decision to draft James Carpenter with the 25th pick in the 2011 draft, a move that was widely panned at the time.
Carpenter has missed 16 games because of a pair of knee injuries, changed positions, and will be competing for a starting spot at guard in his third NFL season. That's not what a team envisions when drafting a player in the first round.
But that selection doesn't look as bad considering that Gabe Carimi, the offensive lineman taken one pick after Carpenter, is by most accounts fighting for a roster spot with the Bears.
In the video below, Brock Huard and Danny O'Neil revisit those picks and discuss whether Carimi could be an option for the Seahawks as a backup if he's released.

Harvest Pumpkin Cheesecake
Filed under: Dining
You can buy all the pumpkin-shaped pans that you want and spend all day in the kitchen, but the odds are good that no matter how much time you put into it, you will have difficulty getting a cake to come out as perfectly as the this Harvest Pumpkin Cheesecake. We know we would, which is probably why we like this one so much. The 3-pound, handmade cake is entirely edible, including the realistically twisted stem. The cheesecake beneath the white-chocolate "skin" is swirled with an addictive pumpkin hazelnut toffee crunch and has a crispy cookie crust. With some judicious cutting, you'll probably get about 10 servings from this cake, making it a good choice for Thanksgiving, as well as for Halloween. Price: $100.

"You can be entrepreneurial even if you don't want to be in business. You can be a social entrepreneur focused on the not-for-profit sector. You can be an agriculture entrepreneur if you want to change how people think about farming. You can be a policy entrepreneur if you want to go into government. The idea of an entrepreneur is really thinking out of the box and taking risks and stepping up to major challenges."

Sanjay Bickram Rana spent his summer helping others in Costa Rica. He writes:
Most of us have this image of a social entrepreneur as an individual who receives prestigious awards or gains international recognition for his/her work, or even as someone who appears on television in various shows such as Ted Talks, and astonishes the viewers with stories of innovation and change. It is therefore of no surprise that one may encounter many individuals, particularly those from the younger generation, who are all striving to be social entrepreneurs with the aim of changing the world.

Mary D, one of our members, made this passel of bookmarks for our literacy program. They're cute and will be loved by the children who get them. Thank you, Mary, for your dedication and time!
One of the chapter's charities is stitching bookmarks for literacy programs. The President's Challenge this year is to ask each member to stitch one bookmark and one Christmas ornament for the breast cancer fundraiser. Here are six! bookmarks stitched by NancyAnn W., one of our members. We will be featuring more of these in the next week, so keep looking.
As announced in the meeting, you have the chance to win this beautiful beeswax heart!
Just complete the "A Little Gem" canvaswork project and post a picture in the Chat4 folder!
Here's the underside:
A bit of background on the heart: It was made in Moldova and was bought directly from the beekeeper. She molded the heart herself, and you can see from the back that it's truly handmade. It weighs about a hundred grams and measures two inches across and down, with an inch in depth.
As a benefit of membership in CyberStitchers, our members get a discount on one Group Correspondence Course per year.

Vols 1, 2: These documents work together to inspire critical assessment of the challenges, issues and opportunities that local governments face. The aim of the guide is to investigate the issues that local governments face in tourism management and the practices and approaches that have been adopted to address these issues. An investigation and appreciation of these issues is necessarily the first stage in moving towards more sustainable local tourism management. The assessment tool provides readers with tools, exercises and interrogating questions to better understand tourism management issues in their local destination. This is achieved through the presentation of activities and questions and through the inclusion of vignettes and stories of practice that may inspire alternative approaches to tourism management.

[b] more zombies,survivor mode,multiplayuer mode,more weapons,more maps,bonus levels and weapons, and i forgot one thing... MORE RATES FOR RAZE 3!!! ^^

multiplayuer mode,
That's already going be in Raze 3.
But I think less weapons that shoot in an arch would be nicer. I think a campaign sort of like Echoes would be pretty neat (not the RTS aspect, the campaign that you have to travel a lot and the enemies are a tad weaker).
Also, a campaign where you can choose your own difficulty, yet some levels are still harder than others. Getting to use two abilities (Cloak and Katana would be beastly) at the same time instead of just one.
But then again, Raze 2 was just fully released yesterday, so none of this will probably be seen by the time that Raze 3 is in full production.. :/

Well, that hasn't been confirmed but they said that if they make a Raze 3 it will be multiplayer. And I think that, that foreshadows a Raze 3 release in the future. I'd say a few years or so. Multiplayer takes quite some time to develop.

@Turtelman1234 i can't wait raze 3 i want multiplayer like other games :D

Yeah, sort of like Halo, only when you finish on higher difficulties, you get different endings (or more content).
I was kind of hoping to see something like a co-op campaign, if they're going to do multiplayer.
Also, I was surprised at a credit system but no rank system. It would all be based off of how many credits you have earned overall, I guess sort of like Halo Reach. I haven't played that game much to know how it works, though.
I actually support less guns - seven guns are a pain to handle, not to mention that most of the smaller ones never get used. If you limit to two held, and make the bigger/stronger weapons more sparse, it might work. I liked how you could choose what weapons you could use, though. Perhaps it could work sort of like that again.
Also, interactive environment would be cool. The waterfalls were nice effects, but in terms of you being able to react with the environment, Raze 1 had more (Disposal, with the boxes that would fall and kill you). I think it would be cool to have some more explosive stuff, like explosive boxes sitting around that you could shoot and they would blow up.
Map editor. Yeah, yeah, everyone says the same thing :P
That's all that comes to mind right now.

Posted Sep 24, '11 at 4:40pm

agree with me?]

What would happen to the companies that employ the people on foodstamps if foodstamps disappeared? zerohedge.com
Epic fail. The government needs to butt out of private industries' day to day practices. Besides that, have you been to Micky D's lately? Those morons don't deserve more money, or whatever the new commie phrase for it is - "living wages."
And if anybody thinks that rent support and welfare is about a society's safety net you have another thing coming. It's about supporting a steady income for slumlords. Show me a state with high welfare expenses, I will show you a state that has slumlords with a lot of political pull, with accompanying high occupancy rates. So high in fact that they're now housing them in hotels. It is so lucrative for hotels (they have guaranteed income) that they're no longer accepting travelers.
Well, if the evil corporate employers are the true beneficiaries then let's end food stamps. That'll show 'em. If this isn't possible, maybe the government could at least take over the retail food industry. Then at least purchases by food stamp recipients won't be lining the pockets of evil corporate grocers.
I'm not sure I buy the implication that these measures are all that is preventing corporations from paying a "living wage" of their own volition, but it certainly creates an environment where there is little (effective) political or organized labor pressure to influence coporations to do so.

I guess the first thing I would say to you is that if your husband is suggesting marriage counselling then you should go. This is an indication that he wants to move past the issues you are facing in your marriage. Marriage counselling gives both a chance to air your problems with someone who is not emotionally connected to you and can guide you towards a better way of communicating. Your son is another issue altogether but the stresses caused by his problems are causing problems in your marriage. The two of you should also seek counselling separately to help you both work through your own issues. I can't stress how much this can help. I think a lot of people have pre-conceived ideas of what counselling is and are scared of it. Trust me, it is worth it. You may need to "shop around" for the right one because like many things, it's not a "one size fits all" profession. I think that you need to put some simple boundaries up about what type of language you will and won't accept from both your husband and your son. There is no need to use yelling or screaming to get your point across. The simplest and most effective way is to calmly state that you cannot continue a conversation if it is aimed at laying blame at anyone's feet. Laying blame and going over and over old issues does not help you to move forward. What you need is to find a way to together deal with the problems your son's issues have brought to your lives and your marriage and together you will find ways to help him while helping yourselves and keeping your marriage strong. Depression plays out in many ways and can afflict even the strongest person. It is important for someone living with depression or a depressed person to instill boundaries and ensure those around know what those boundaries are.View Thread
Thank you. I can tell you it is not an easy journey and sometimes this approach may not work. I stopped enabling it while at the same time letting my husband know I was there for him but that if he wasn't prepared to make some positive changes to help address his own depression then I could do nothing to help him. While he continued to allow it to define him it was destroying the rest of us and I wasn't about to let that happen. I was prepared to walk if I had to but it was a last resort. In the end, he made the decision, based on what he believed was me trying to control him and the way he felt. He enjoyed, in some strange way, the way he let his depression define him as a person. It was like a comfortable friend he wasn't prepared to let go. He had defined himself by that for many years and didn't really know how to live without that definition.
I hope you all have a wonderful festive season with the ones you love.View Thread
No I have not left my partner. We have both worked very hard to address the issues and each day things get a little bit better. Now, compared to 12 months ago we are both able to recognise the signs and talk about it openly and therefore address issues before they take over the entire family. I began this journey about 18 months ago. I sought counselling first as I could see our family life and our marriage were very quickly disintegrating. My husband at first refused to acknowledge that my concerns were real. He felt I was just trying to make him feel worse about his depression by making him feel like he was weak because he suffered from depression. In fact, this was completely the opposite. I wanted him to acknowledge that his depression was affecting us all and by not addressing the issues he would soon find himself alone because I was about at my wits end. I love him and wanted nothing more than for our marriage and family to work. I asked him to seek counselling. He did - two or three sessions - we then tried couples counselling and each time he just got angry and wanted to attack me and felt he was justified in doing so because there was someone there to listen to him. 12 months ago he decided and informed me, in front of the counsellor, that our marriage was never going to work. That night I asked him to leave the house and not to make contact with me for several days. I was so angry. I had been trying to get him to either commit or walk for some time. I was hurt because he couldn't talk to me about how he felt and would rarely even open up in front of the counsellor. During this time, my counsellor was pretty much encouraging me to walk away from the marriage. She felt I had done everything that could be reasonably asked of someone and it wasn't working. My husband stayed away but soon realised he had probably make a big mistake and asked for forgiveness. I told him that I never wanted our marriage to break down so would give him a chance but I would not let him return to the family home until he had addressed some of his issues and was willing to work on being a husband and a father and to prove this before he returned home. He moved back in I believe a little too soon as things were great for a while but he had not addressed the issues that were holding him back from engaging with us.
Little by little though I managed to help him see things in a different light. It was very, very hard work but I stuck with it. We had a few nasty issues arise during that time (no violence) but those things have strengthened our marriage as we were able to work through together the details of the dramas and how they affected all of us, including him. For the first time in years he's been engaging with me and able to communicate how he feels which helps me no end to understand him and for us to come up with some strategies for him to recognise when he's feeling like that and to be strong enough to ask for some space or to to explain why he's like that rather than just getting angry and sulking and blaming us all for the reasons he is feeling the way he is. It's not been an easy road but life has become so much fuller and our family is much tighter as a result.View Thread
The challenges you outline in trying to explain to your wife how you feel are the same challenges my husband described to me. First of all I want to tell you how wonderful it is that want to make a difference and that you have asked for help, not only from a therapist but you have sought some answers on your own from people who have suffered through a similar situation. I find that seeking information from a forum such as this does wonders as it makes you feel much less alone knowing that there are people going through the same thing. Not everyone understands. You are right, your depression, actions and moods will be affecting your wife. I am a wife who suffers living with a husband whose depression can sometimes be so all consuming he stops seeing anything but that. Your moods, feelings, actions will affect her in such a way that she will begin to suffer from depression as well but feel like she's not allowed to because her burdens in dealing with you are so heavy that she can't allow herself to go down too. To you, her chattiness, her expectations etc will be burdensome but she is probably trying desperately to seek some type of normalcy in her life. I can guarantee she feels all alone and her job is to pull you through too and keep up with all the chores and her own feelings. Don't ever dismiss her if she says she understands how you feel because most likely she does more than you will ever know. The partners of those who suffer from depression are most often forgotten. They're seen as the ones who must change their behaviours to accommodate the one suffering from depression. Anything less would label them as unsupportive and not able to understand.
It's great that you're trying to understand what triggers your reactions so that you can have more control over them in the future. Remember, your wife and family are victims of your depression also. It's a hard reality but it's true but they're also their to help you just as you should help them - that's what family is and shutting them out or assuming they don't understand is only insulting their intelligence.
Take care, keep up the great work. Keep us posted on your progress.View Thread
