Part 1 Footnotes
Both these charters are written in double column. Although they purport to be granted by the king, and begin and end accordingly, the document becomes in places a recital by the monks themselves, whose "nos "and "nostrum" there replaces the "ego" of the king.
One of these charters gives the witnesses' names as in the text. The other adds the words "justic[iario] Norm[annie]" after the bishop of Evreux's name, and inserts, (after "Gaufrido capellano ") three additional witnesses: "Willelmo filio "Martini; Ricardo de Humeto; Manassero Biseit." The Neustris Pia version (p. 628) is a compound, omitting "justiciario Normannie," but including the three witnesses ("Biseit" being given as "Bizet").

Here is the thing about "French parenting": many of us, people who will never, ever look good with a scarf tied around our necks, can get just a little defensive when the French are held up as an example.
And here is the other thing: if "French parenting" really is the advice distilled by Pamela Druckerman, Karen Le Billon and (in a forthcoming book) Catherine Crawford, then it sounds pretty good. Who wouldn't want to be a society of "good sleepers, gourmet eaters, and mostly calm parents?"
That's from the book jacket of Pamela Druckerman's "Bébé Day by Day," a short guide to the world she introduced (and described being blindsided by) in "Bringing Up Bébé." When I saw that there was more to be said on the topic of French parents, I had questions. Pamela, by phone from Paris, had answers. I have no idea if she was wearing an expertly tied scarf.
My first question is, why another book? What's left to say?
I was inspired by "Food Rules," the distilled version of Michael Pollan's "The Omnivore's Dilemma." After I wrote the first book, I got letters — people asked for something that was a little more instructive. People said, "I'm a new mom, I barely made it through the book the first time," or "I want to give it to a friend, or my husband, or my mother." I just wanted to cut out the back story and the voyage and distill the advice. Read more…

Visionaries define 'Gen4' packaging
Software quality consultancy ITQ contributed a comprehensive roadmap for project management. ITQ President Dr. Rainer Stetter completely overturned the traditional approach in which control systems follow mechanical design. His model described a methodical sequence of design reviews testing and documentation at distinct intervals through the project cycle. ITQ Project Leader Harold Weigold gave real world examples of thismodel which the firm calls the "quality gate concept."
Additional in-depth sessions were led by Joerg Riekenbrauck Uhlmann Pac System's Chief of Electronic Development and ELAU's Marc Slotman Training Manager and Dietmar Hamburger Applications Manager.
The workshops demonstrated how commercially available development environments such as ELAU's EPAS-4 software toolkit can accommodate the new techniques today.
"We must completely redesign our machinery!"
OEM participants concurred that for the next generation "we must completely redesign our machinery!"
This may seem inconceivable to the US packaging industry where Gen3 is only now taking hold. How could it be that 'Gen4' is only a few years away from commercialization in Europe?
But perhaps it's not such a big leap. Unlike the radical shift from mechanical/servo Gen2 hybrids to servo-centric Gen3 designs the next generation will build on today's scalable standards-based hardware and software foundation.
As this forum suggests the keys will be interdisciplinary project management platforms that can accommodate new software and communications capabilities and an increased focus on modularizing complex capabilities.
To schedule a presentation in North America on next generation packaging machinery design processes contact John Kowal Global Marketing Manager ELAU Inc. at 773 342 8400 or email [email protected].

Most of the star players in free agency are now off the board, but there are still plenty of impact players to discuss in this updated version of the Free Agency Breakdown with unique analytic angles. We here at Sheridan Hoops will break everything down for you into bite sized Winners & Losers style pieces.
The Houston Rockets, GM Daryl Morey and Dwight Howard were WINNERS after agreeing to a four-year deal worth $88 million to finally, mercifully, ending the Dwight Howard sweepstakes. Morey set out a year ago to acquire two stars to legitimately compete in this SuperTeam Era that currently rules the NBA and got them in Howard and Harden.
Houston also signed Francisco Garcia to a team-friendly contract worth $1.3 million over two years. Garcia could probably replace Carlos Delfino in a spacer-type role for Houston after shooting 37.4 percent from three last season. Houston then picked up another spacer in Reggie Williams, who needs to greatly improve from his 30.6 shooting percentage from three last season with Charlotte.
Of course, the Howard deal makes the Los Angeles Lakers the big losers of the offseason for getting nothing out of Howard and looking ridiculous in doing so. They will now try to delude themselves into thinking players like LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony will come next offseason. Good. Freaking. Luck.
But if there is any consolation for Laker fans, I do like their signing of Chris Kaman a lot. Despite a sharp decrease in minutes with the Mavericks last season, from 29.2 to 20.7 per game, Kaman shot 50.7 percent from the field (his best percentage in a season in which he played over 40 games since the 2005-2006 season) and averaged 10.5 points with 5.6 rebounds. His Win Shares per 48 minutes was his best mark since the 2007-2008 campaign. Expect better production in LA with a slightly increased workload. And Jordan Farmar won't be a bad player either for the veteran's minimum.
Dwight Howard's good friend, Josh Smith, ended up with Detroit for four-years and $56 million and Al Jefferson cashed in for three years and $41 million with Charlotte. This brings us a really interesting philosophical question: Can these players be the highest paid, and best, players for playoff teams? The answer is likely no. But does that mean the teams shouldn't try?
Despite a subpar year by his standards Smith is still a really good player, so the jury is still out on this signing for the Pistons. Smith will make a really good frontcourt with Greg Monroe and Andre Drummond, but do the Pistons have the backcourt to compete? Not right now, even with the Chauncey Billups signing (two years, $5 million).
Billups will add veteran leadership and a fan favorite to the Detroit roster, but he's only played 42 total games over the last two seasons. But when he's played he's been good, shooting 36.7 percent from three last season with a Win Share/48 number that's well above average. It's just hard to envision Billups being healthy all season. Billups will join Will Bynum, who Detroit re-signed to an affordable two-year deal worth $5.75 million. Bynum shot a career best 46.9 percent from the field and averaged nearly 10 points per game for the Pistons in 2012-2013.
It'll also be interesting to see how the team uses reigning Italian League MVP Gigi Datome, who inked a two-year deal worth $3.5 million. Our resident Euro expert A.J. Mitnick told me that he'll need to adjust to the NBA game, but the potential is there for Datome to become a nice NBA player. I'll take his word for it…
On the Charlotte side of things, there's no doubt that Jefferson is a really, really good player. Anyone who shoots nearly 50 percent from the field and averages nearly 18 points and over nine boards per game is really good. His defense will certainly help an inept Bobcats team in that department, but his offensive rating of 109 last season leaves something to be desired.
Can Jefferson, Cody Zeller and Bismack Biyombo coexist in the frontcourt? Can Jefferson be the best player on a playoff team? Jefferson has made the playoffs just twice in his nine-season career, losing in the first round on both occasions. Golden State signed David Lee to an enormous contract, and Golden State ended up okay by hitting it big by drafting Stephen Curry, Harrison Barnes and Klay Thompson. Charlotte will have to do that in order to not look foolish with this Jefferson signing, so, again, the jury is still out.

| Petition for Tracker Hi, I don't know if you've all been watching. Tracker has gotten better and better. If you'd like to keep seeing it and preferably at a decent hour, sign the petition to keep Tracker on the air and hopefully on Cable. Lionsgate is looking for a cable station to air Tracker, so it gets a better time slot and regular schedule. The fans are pretty excited about the possibility...over 1600 have signed! If you're interested, go to: http://www.petitiononline.com/tracfan1 Adrian Paul is outstanding as Cole and Geraint Wyn Davies is as nasty as the bad guys come. I am looking forward to the next new episode. |

| Leepeace1 No Tracker at all firstname.lastname@example.com is not showing Tracker any more. The last one was shown at 3 AM last Wednesday morning. Why, I don't know but all of you send emails regarding this. Since we tried the petitition, it obviously didn't work on them. I will call them tomorrow. Peace Lee |

| Any More Tracker? The last episode of season 1 aired a couple of weeks ago, and some stations continue to air Tracker in re-runs. However, the decision about a second season is still up in the air. Lionsgate is still working on options, particularly selling Tracker to a cable station. This would ensure that the show would air at a regular time across the country and get some promotional coverage. We are all holding our breaths to see if we will see new episodes next fall. If anyone saw the show through Season 1, I'm sure you'd agree that Tracker was well worth following. It had an interesting storyline and some great surprises in the last few episodes. There's lots of possibilities for the story and characters! |

| Thanx for the news, I was really worried. Yes, I see the Season 1 and love it, but haven't hear anymore about it and was afraid it was cancelled. Crossing fingers to Season 2 and in a better time slot and channel. :lol: Krystal |

text: After battling a tough illness, Lorna Colbert died last week at 92. She "made a very loving home" and her son felt that she needed to be recognized for doing so. Stephen Colbert took time out of his show on Wednesday to pay tribute to his wonderful mother saying, "if you also like me, it's because of my mom". He became choked up many times and was almost in tears. His mother was a huge part of his life and him to her. So much so, that she said she "wouldn't miss [his show] for the world".

Servers are over loaded,you'll have to be patient :-S
Heh, I was just about to say the same thing. But I'm in the same situation. Jailbreak went smoothly, now trying to install SBSettings and keeps returning an internal server error. I can only imagine how many people are hammering the servers trying to install their jb apps.
Yeah I can't even download sbsetting,bitesms downloaded fine tho
It all depends on which repo hosts them. All are getting slammed right now so have to be patient with all because sometimes dependencies cross repos.
ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE tweak !
just installed sbsettings once i finished jailbreaking my iphone 5. For some reason i dont have a 3G toggle does anyone else have this issue or is it just me?
also why isnt their a toggle for LTE in sbsettings
hit airplane mode and it crashed my phone still so guess i wont be using that option till they can update it for iPhone 5
How do you set the Wifi, bright widgets? o.O
Tried to install on day 1, justlike a million other people, and got jammed, server time out...
Anyhow, no 3g, even though it is "window toggle on" on the iphone 5. Same for SSH, and obviously the not included airplane mode. On the 4 with all default buttons toggled on, SSH does not show. Everything seems to work fine on 4, 4s, and 5 running with 6.0, 6.0.1, and 6.1 respectively
Once airplane mode is activated for the iphone 5, i will be able to save data by using wifi INSTEAD of 3g. Airplane mode on, data and 3g off, wifi on.
just installed sbsettings once i finished jailbreaking my iphone 5. For some reason i dont have a 3G toggle does anyone else have this issue or is it just me?
also why isnt their a toggle for LTE in sbsettings
hit airplane mode and it crashed my phone still so guess i wont be using that option till they can update it for iPhone 5
I have the same problem with the 3g. I don't know about airplane mode, because I dont use it. As far as the 3g toggle goes, I just figure that it has become un-necessary since no one probably ever turns 3g off anymore. An LTE switch would make more sense now.
I dont know why the 3g toggle would not work though
I've installed SBSettings and I'm good to go -- great work! I noticed that Poof! is now included in SBSettings. However, when I "poof!" apps, I can't launch them from Spotlight Seach (by typing in the app name) like I could do on previous versions of Poof! Is this a known issue or a feature? Maybe I'm missing something. Any help appreciated.
Any chance of getting SB Schedule back? I need that functionality.
I turned separate window off or on i forget and when i use the activator ro open it nothing is happening. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still doesnt work. Anyone know how to fix this problem?
i also hide the icon so no way to open the app =\
Use Cydia's WeeKillBackground to add a bar
with the Notification screen. One tap will
Close all running apps. No need to individually
remove by double pressing home button then
tapping each app's red x.
Easy one step saves time and home button.
Dr. Joepa
Can no longer open settings since update on IOS 5.1. THANKS A LOT!!
Anyone gotten "free memory" to work? mine just close the sbs setting, dont seem like it does anything.
Working good for me
hmm wierd... might have to redownload it again. nothing happens when i press it, it just close the screen.

Hello, I am new to this forum.
I started watching Anime since about '86. I stopped watching Anime for a number of reasons, none of them good. I just recently started up watching Anime again after watching Hyouka, wow really good Anime. I think as I have aged my tastes and expectations in what I like in anime have changed. I am hoping that with my participation in this forum I will find anime that I will like, and people who like the same stuff as I do. As to what I like I guess it is safe to say I like most of the Studio Ghibli stuff. When I was Younger I remember watching Anime like Appleseed, Orguss II, Ranma 1/2, Maison Ikokku, Here is Greenwood, Galaxy Express 999, Silent Möbius, Fight! Iczer-One, Project A-ko, Riding Bean, Ah! My Goddess!, and Green Legend Ran. My friend let me watch Detroit Metal City, and Ping Pong Club which I honestly was uncomfortable watching the first time, I felt dirty and wanted to read the Bible a lot afterward, but you know those Anime turned out to be pretty funny the second time around viewing and are now in my top twenty list. Anyway nice to meet you, I am Caromfriend. |

Metroid Arcade Game Looks Reaaal Nice
Some guy built a Metroid inspired arcade cabinet complete with Mother Brain viewing box in the side and a bunch of real nice artwork. The thing is powered by "an AMD 64X2 4800 CPU, 2GB of memory, EVGA 7800GTX graphics, a Soundblaster eXremeMusic card, Logitech R-20 w/ subwoofer, and a 17-inch Samsung LCD display". Not too shabby, certainly a step up from the Nintendo NES mod's config from earlier today.
Mother Brain made of Super Sculpey clay. DVI-Out and Optical-Out on the back for external screen/sound system. One power cord (one still image shows a few cords but they aren't attached to the machine) out the back which is a Bits Limited Smartstrip. When PC turns on, everything (cathodes, controls, sound, LCD) powers on at once.
Watch the video to fully appreciate the quality of the system, which I think is looking pretty good. Almost as good looking as this chick I managed to bring home from the bar last night. She was smoking hot. Until I sobered up and saw her penis. Then she became very un-hot. I hit it again though, just for good measure. Hey, I'll try anything four times.

The idea behind the Yamaha YBR125 Custom is dead simple: take the straightforward YBR125 commuter, customize it a bit with high bars, more chrome and a lower seat, bump up the price a tad, and there you go, a pointlessly more expensive and less tasteful runabout. In reality, it makes a lot of sense as the low seat makes it ...
599cc, 95bhp, 135mph, Insurance group 12
In many ways the older Yamaha FZS600 Fazer is better than the new model; much more midrange oomph, better weather protection, more upright riding position. But it does look kinda 80s disco from some angles and it's also a bit greedy on fuel. Otherwise, teh Yamaha FZS600 Fazer is a versatile all-rounder with great brakes and a reliable motor.

Curb Appeal
Tune In
April 18, 2014
7:30 AM e/p
Brent Ferricci and Ronnie Mallette bought their home 3 years ago because of the size of the land, only to realize, they couldn't figure out how to take care of it all. After spending over $8,000 on necessary maintenance to the front, they've run out of money and ideas on how to make it beautiful. As a result they are the only house in the neighborhood that hasn't maintained its curb appeal. They appreciate the bones of the house and the interior is liveable, but they realize what's inside doesn't matter to the neighbors or passers by. They're looking to turn their blah facade into an updated contemporary gem of the block! These two are social people, they enjoy chatting with the neighbors, and they've wanted to throw a block party but with the state of the house now, it's not going to happen. The neighborhood's coveted "yard of the month" sign has yet to grace their yard, with good reason. That is, until the Curb Appeal: The Block team comes in to save the day!

BP Comment Quick Links
October 11, 2013 Playoff ProspectusALCS Preview: Tigers vs. Red SoxThe Detroit Tigers were founded in 1894. The Boston Red Sox were founded as the Boston Americans in 1901. Those two teams have shared a league for 112 years. Yet they have never, not once, not ever, met in a postseason series. That will change at Fenway Park on Saturday night. Projected Lineups (AVG/OBP/SLG/TAv) Tigers The Tigers' lineup projection above is for Game One, in which they are scheduled to face a left-hander, Jon Lester, for the first time this October. Manager Jim Leyland was pleased to see Miguel Cabrera unload on a Sonny Gray fastball in Game Five, both because it was the difference in a 3-0 blanking and because it proved that the league's best pure hitter is not completely handicapped by his myriad injuries. Cabrera's power on outer-half offerings and his ability to stay back on curveballs are lingering question marks, but if Lester or his teammates make a mistake, the Tigers' third baseman can make them pay.

I prefer the high beam than the moon beam. I think high beam is much much better. The benefit consultant told me that moon beam is better suited for my skin (NC40). To be honest moon beam didn't really make a difference on my skin. I regret buying this product, I don't like it. =/
I am willing to do a swap with this item. I have a full bottle left as I've been using high beam rather moon beam.
Contact me!
This is a wonder product in my opinion. I was neither blessed with defined cheekbones nor with beautifully arched brows so the first time I applied this it subtly made my complexion look brighter in all the correct places.
I start with smearing a little on my hand and then I use the Benefit foundation brush to apply it to my cheekbones in a patting motion as it sinks in too much if one rubs it in. Finally I apply Moon beam to make my brows appear more arched with the tip of the brush as I need to be more precise.
The only con with Moon Beam is that if you over apply, you can see where the product ends and it looks a bit more pink in colour. My friend made a comment about it the other day and it was true,it looked as if I'd used pink shimmery glitter instead and it is not attractive. Nowadays I use Topshop's skin glow in 'Dark'. The funny thing is that it's very dark, but, on my nc25 skin it still looks great. I have a great glow!!
Moon Beam is just okay--especially compared to High Beam. I have very neutral-colored skin, and for that reason, I feel that it did nothing but blend in. I can't attest to its ability with cool-toned skin, but I imagine it would work much better in that case. I do, however, like using this for a natural look during the day. I won't buy it again though; $24 is a lot for an "eh" product. Another thing is that It can be hard to blend (High Beam as well). I won't notice it on my face until I get really close up to the mirror and see all of these water stain looking lines. Make sure you blend it out really well!
This is a more subtle highlighter compared to high beam. I also have high beam, but you can definetly tell that I have it on even if i'm not in the sunlight and it looks very fake (if you know what I mean). Moon beam is more suited for my neutral undertone. When my face hits the light or I take a picture it makes me look like I have a natural radience to my skin.
I really like this. It applys well and the packaging is interesting. The full size is kind of pricy. I have found less expensive products that work just as well. I prefer High Beam, so for that reason only I will not purchase again.
I recieved a sample sized bottle of this product. Im a lover of all things peachy normally however Moon Beam was sadly not suited to my fair skin. In fact it barely showed up. I then tried High Beam which was a much better highlighter for my skin tone - subtle yet effective. I would not repurchase High Beam however as it lacks the staying power of other highlighters I have.
I do not like this at all. I could have got a defective or old one but mine is pretty clumpy and the color payout is close to non- existent. I do understand that the color is supposed to be subtle.. which is fine.. But no matter what I do with this product it barely shows up at all. I'd be willing to try it again but only if it were like a gift or I found it really cheap. I definitely wouldn't chance paying full price again.
This is not too bad. The highlight is not glittery and the shimmer is subtle. A little goes a long way. Don think I will rebuy as the little bottle I have is gonna last a long time.
i quite like this product, although there isnt an obvious dramatic highlight effect you can definitely see a pinksheen.
that being said.. i use this midrange between my cheek and cheekbones, that way, when the light hits your face, you have a glowly pink sheen to your face. its lovely, and when people say its mostly for darker skin tones/tan and highbeam for fairer skintones, i agree to an extent but i also think that moonbeam is suitable for fair skin a well.

Since you're not capturing the post-slash bit separately, you don't need parentheses: a plain

The character you're groping for is \S as in
Remember that in RegEx, if \a means something, \A almost always means [^\a]. \S technically means "no whitespace of any kind" but in this context it doesn't matter, because you're in strict single-line mode, and other space-type things like tabs or non-breaking spaces don't occur.
In fact all you need in the REQUEST line is

A federal court has dismissed ethnic intimidation claims against Kalamazoo Metal Recyclers Inc. (KMR) and its workers, who detained three Hispanic men they suspected of trying to steal metal from the scrap company in August 2006.
U.S. District Court Judge Gordon J. Quist dismissed the claims filed by Jose Guadalupe Prieto, Adan Juarez and Eduardo Romero, who were among six men bound, threatened and assaulted by the scrapyard's owner and his workers.

After one too many dangerous assignments, TV journalist Dinah Davis suffers from post-tramatic stress syndrome and her work suffers because of it. After a few months, her boss encourages her to take time off. Dinah quits her job and returns home to South Carolina.
Once she arrives, she wants to find Bobby Beaufort, her backup plan. He was Dinah's high-school sweetheart, but she broke up with him 10 years earlier when she left to pursue her career in journalism. Before Dinah left, Bobby told her to come back anytime, and if they weren't married, they could pick up where they left off.
The backup plan doesn't turn out the way Dinah expects. Although she looks for Bobby several times, she keeps finding his brother, Cordell (Cord), instead. That's just the way Cord likes it. He's always wanted Dinah, even when she was dating Bobby. For her part, Dinah has always been more comfortable with Bobby but finds herself increasingly attracted to Cord.
The Backup Plan has an interesting premise that ends up being bogged down by indirect maneuvering. Dinah is depressed about the incident that led to her resignation and about what she will do with her life. She is uncommunicative; although her parents, Cord, and her friend Maggie ask what's wrong, she can't bring herself to talk about it. This results in a number of conversations where the characters talk to everyone except Dinah. Her mother talks to Cord and asks him to make sure she gets out now and then. Cord talks to Maggie to find out what she knows about the situation. Their concern is understandable since Dinah refuses to talk about what is troubling her. But all the circuitous discussion slows the story down.
When people talk to Dinah, they either won't tell her what she needs to know or end up pressing her about what's wrong. For example, Maggie and Cord both know that there's a potential glitch with the backup plan but neither will tell Dinah what it is. As for the latter scenario, Cord takes Dinah to dinner where he keeps asking questions. This, along with other similar scenes, was frustrating.
About halfway through the book, however, Cord stops interrogating Dinah and provides steady support instead. In a few wonderfully sweet scenes, he drops everything to be with her when she needs him. The most compelling part of the book comes when Dinah comes to terms with the traumatic incident that led her to quit her job.
The Backup Plan has its share of interesting and sweet moments, but the sheer number of conflicts in the novel makes it difficult to develop the romance. The result is a read that's both interesting and frustrating.
