CarbonFree® Partner Clarke Leads Sustainability Initiatives in Integrated Environmental Management Services
Industry leadership is often demonstrated by implementing internally the best practices promoted to customers. This notion of "getting and keeping one's own house in order first" is exemplified by the sustainability strategies of CarbonFree® Partner Clarke, a global environmental products and services company with the mission is to make communities around the world more livable, safe and comfortable.
In 2008 Clarke established a set of aggressive sustainability goals, and put into motion initiatives to achieve them. Every employee is charged with making everyday decisions, big and small, through a sustainability lens. In 2009, Clarke completed its first sustainability report, and in 2010, began reporting greenhouse gas emissions according to GRI standards. For the past three years, Clarke has neutralized its electricity usage and onsite fuel consumption by supporting Carbonfund.org's clean air technology and carbon emissions reduction projects around the world.
"We are committed to creating policies and procedures that reduce our carbon footprint," states J. Lyell Clarke III, President & CEO of Clarke. "Our commitment is a journey and we cannot continue on our journey without the partnerships of our stakeholders, customers and employees, and Carbonfund.org, which has demonstrated its transparency and helps us to further mitigate our impact today."
Clarke helps its customers improve the health and safety of communities by developing and delivering environmentally responsible mosquito control and aquatic services to help prevent disease, control nuisances and create healthy waterways. Clarke's product innovations include EarthRight™, a groundbreaking municipal public health service that uses only products made from naturally-derived active ingredients, and employs earth-friendly application methods including bicycles and all-electric sprayers. EarthRight™includes a unique pairing of two Environmental Protection Agency-registered and Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) Listed® products to give communities a highly sustainable choice for effective mosquito control.
Environmentally-conscious product development coupled with a disciplined strategy for internal and operational sustainability make Clarke an industry leader and partner that Carbonfund.org admires.
CarbonFree® Partner specialTEA Lounge & Café Serving Up Teas and Treats to Miami-Dade County
As June's temperatures start to rise in Miami, visitors and locals seek out a respite from the heat. And with all the news reports of climate change's impact on the heavily-populated cities along the US eastern seaboard, the environmentally-aware customers will choose to patronize area businesses that take responsibility for their environmental impact.
For the past four years, these eco-customers have had the option to visit the tea oasis at specialTEA Lounge & Café, created with the planet and people in mind. Owners Marilyn Morales and Chris Infante are extremely conscious of their impact on the environment. Since opening the café, Chris and Marilyn have been teaching through example about sustainability initiatives, selecting local and organic products, and being as earth-friendly as possible. They use local organic ingredients and materials whenever possible, use eco-friendly compostable containers and utensils, and choose paper products made with 100% post-consumer-recycled content. The café is equipped with energy-saving LED light bulbs, an energy-saving water-heater, a water-saving dual-flush toilet as well as an ExtremeAir® hand-dryer.
This year, specialTEA Lounge & Café took an important additional step in their sustainability plan by joining the CarbonFree® Business Partnership and mitigating their annual operational carbon emissions.
"No matter how eco-conscious we are in our decisions, there are still aspects of our business that are beyond our control," explains Christian Infante, co-owner of specialTea Lounge. "For those reasons, we have chosen to partner with Carbonfund.org, a leader in carbon offsetting, to offset any carbon emissions we generate in the course of our business operations."
SpecialTEA Lounge & Café patrons can enjoy a pot of tea or a cooling frappé with friends over a game of chess, relax with a book on the comfy couches, or use the free wi-fi while noshing on sweet or savory treats at the café.

Salsa Labs Ignites Action and Fuels Change for Non-Profits But Keeps Focus on Sustainability
The world of social media has opened new channels for all businesses and organizations to reach their customers and supporters, but for many, it's a strange new world requiring new skills and expertise.
Enter CarbonFree® Business Partner Salsa Labs. Salsa helps nonprofits and political campaigns "ignite action and fuel change" around the world by growing and engaging their base of support online. With Salsa's technology tools and training, groups of all sizes can easily organize their supporters and chapters then improve efforts to fundraise, advocate, communicate through email and social media, host events and measure their results. And despite the fossil fuel references in Salsa's tagline, Salsa Labs has been a CarbonFree® Business for the past three years, partnering with Carbonfund.org to neutralize its own annual operating emissions. By supporting Carbonfund.org's carbon reduction projects, Salsa Labs has mitigated almost 500,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions, equivalent to the emissions created by using almost 25,000 gallons of gasoline.
"Carbonfund.org shares our core values of making the world a better place," says Christine Schaefer, Vice President, Community & Marketing. "Their commitment to the environment and fighting climate change is inspiring and we look forward to this partnership."
Salsa is proud to help their nonprofit clients fight for a healthier environment coast to coast and around the world, and Carbonfund.org is equally proud to help Salsa Labs meet its own sustainability initiatives through the CarbonFree® Partnership program.

Attorney General Martha Coakley, whose political standing has rebounded after her embarrassing defeat in the 2010 US Senate race against Scott Brown, is giving serious consideration to running for governor, Democratic Party operatives said Thursday.
Those people said Coakley is gauging the political climate and reviewing the dynamics of jumping into what is becoming a crowded Democratic primary race, and is on the verge of making a final decision.
"She's seriously thinking about it,'' said a person familiar with her decision making. "She knows she has to make a decision soon."
A number of women activist groups, including EMILY's List, are encouraged by polls that show Coakley to be one of the most popular political figures in the state andhave asked her during the last few months to consider a run for governor, according to those familiar with the conversations. Full story for BostonGlobe.com subscribers.

Tuesday 11 March 2014
The objective of this project is to simplify and improve the usefulness of financial statements by developing accounting requirements for hedging within the context of open portfolios that are more closely aligned with a company's risk management activities.
Users of financial statements and other interested parties asked the IASB to develop a new standard for the reporting of financial instruments that is principle-based and less complex, because IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement was difficult to understand, apply and interpret.
The IASB had not previously undertaken a fundamental reconsideration of reporting for financial instruments within IAS 39. This project addresses dynamic risk management strategies for open portfolios (macro hedging). The IASB received views from financial institutions and also from entities outside the financial sector that addressing situations in which entities use a dynamic risk management strategy was important. Dynamic risk management of open portfolios introduces complexity to the accounting for such hedges that cannot be accommodated within the IFRS 9 hedge accounting guidance for closed portfolios.
Users of financial statements also told the IASB that hedge accounting should be more closely aligned to an entity's risk management activities. The staff have focused on understanding the risk management activities undertaken for open portfolios and considered whether such practices could be usefully included within an accounting approach.
In line with the direction of the IASB discussions, a valuation approach is being explored, in which for accounting purposes the hedged risk position is identified and remeasured for changes in the hedged risk, recognising the gain or loss in profit or loss.
The project aims to develop an accounting solution that both reflects how businesses manage risk dynamically, and helps users to understand risk management activities.
It was agreed by the IASB at the May 2012 meeting that the next step would be to issue a Discussion Paper rather than an Exposure Draft.
This project was initially part of IFRS 9 Phase III: hedge accounting. It was decoupled from the IFRS 9 project into a separate project in May 2012. Separating the two facilitates the completion of IFRS 9 whilst allowing the staff to elicit a broader range of accounting alternatives from a broader range of constituents on the accounting of macro hedging.
Webcasts held on 30 and 31 July to provide updates on IFRS 9
Accounting for macro hedging decoupled from IFRS 9

Delirious New York: a retroactive manifesto for ManhattanSince its original publication in 1978, Delirious New York has attained mythic status. Back in print in a newly designed edition, this influential cultural, architectural, and social history of New York is even more popular, selling out its first printing on publication. Rem Koolhaas's celebration and analysis of New York depicts the city as a metaphor for the incredible variety of human behavior. At the end of the nineteenth century, population, information, and technology explosions made Manhattan a laboratory for the invention and testing of a metropolitan lifestyle -- "the culture of congestion" -- and its architecture. "Manhattan," he writes, "is the 20th century's Rosetta Stone . . . occupied by architectural mutations (Central Park, the Skyscraper), utopian fragments (Rockefeller Center, the U.N. Building), and irrational phenomena (Radio City Music Hall)." Koolhaas interprets and reinterprets the dynamic relationship between architecture and culture in a number of telling episodes of New York's history, including the imposition of the Manhattan grid, the creation of Coney Island, and the development of the skyscraper. Delirious New York is also packed with intriguing and fun facts and illustrated with witty watercolors and quirky archival drawings, photographs, postcards, and maps. The spirit of this visionary investigation of Manhattan equals the energy of the city itself. |

i am adding drop shadows to a layer and i wanted to set the distance, opacity and softness in an efficient way. Is it possible to do this on one line?
so far my code is like this, i have only set the distance here:
var comp = app.project.activeItem;
comp.layer(1).property("Effects").addProperty("Drop Shadow").Distance.setValue(15);
any thoughts??
Unless you have the script apply a preset with your effect and parameter settings, this is probably the best I could come up with:
var comp = app.project.activeItem;
var myEffect = comp.layer(1).property("Effects").addProperty("Drop Shadow");
oh no, actually this just creates 3 drop shadows, rather than tweaking the specified attribute for each. What is the line for accessing the drop shadows opacity, i cant seem to get it to work:
layer.property("Effects").property("Drop Shadow").property("Opacity").setValue(25);
obviously the middle part of this is wrong. cant figure out what it needs to be

Cooper: Beloved figure gets a hand from Midland Park student
The woman Midland Park girls soccer coach Allison Ruta calls "the heart of the district" has never taught a class.
She has never coached a team.
She has never played a sport.
She drives the bus.
The stories about Margaret Soto are legendary in Midland Park — like the time she threw a rap CD out of the window from her moving bus. She has worked in town since 1986, driving athletic teams far and wide, shuttling kids to schools, running deliveries, all with a style all her own.
"I would describe her as loud, and definitely boisterous, very encouraging," said Midland Park senior Michelle Passero. "Nothing else ... other than amazing."
What has happened to Soto — please, whatever you do, don't call her Marge — in the last four months shows how even a small-town bus driver can inspire and even create a catchphrase.
"I am bold, not bald, baby!" said Soto, a 1975 Passaic High graduate. "Bold means courageous. I walk around without a hat. I don't care. My doctors are like: 'We wish more of our patients were like you.' "
Ruta doesn't remember exactly where the team was coming from on the bus when Soto confided in her that she had breast cancer, but she immediately offered to do something.
"We asked her right away and said we would contact Waldwick and play a game for breast cancer awareness. It was October, so it was perfect and they are our rivals," said Ruta. "She was like, 'No.' "

then copy one of the templates "AyMhduMmnkjyZ50c2lIHhzxB" like this into the document and name it after the build you like (or as i did state), then you can open it when playing in guild if you have all the skills for it required else it will probably jsut let them out youre build

Just out of curiousity why would you have a r/mo but use rez sig instead of a hard rez...I am guessing this is ment for pvp because of that. Is that right?
"R/Mo Basic interuptor: ASQBNr8NxTM73GUfL8AAcBA" BTW this build on the list is inncorect...it is not a interupt build.Last edited by Sol Elo; 21-11-2006 at 07:36.

Whole grains reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, according to a study published in the British Medical Journal. People eating three servings of whole grains each day could decrease their risk by 17 percent. One serving of whole grains is equal to one slice of whole grain bread, one-half cup of oatmeal, or one-half cup of brown rice. Whole grains contain fiber that moves intestinal contents along more quickly, dilutes carcinogens, and fosters good bacteria that help balance the digestive tract.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5
This brew pours out as a rich golden color with a big thick white head that has a decent retention to it. The smell was similar to any other pilsner out there but also had a bit of black pepper on the nose. The taste was good for a pilsner. I normally hate them but this one wasn't bad. It was hoppy enough to cover up the grassy flavor that usually Dominates the pilsner genre. The mouthfeel was good, it was a little heavier than most pilsners with nice carbonation and a slight hoppy bite. I liked this brew.

This brew pours a hazy golden hue with beautiful carbonation that leaves behind a beige tinted two finger creamy head and clingy lacing here and there,the smell is sweet honey,herbal hops,sandalwood and blood oranges,it has a medium bodied creamy mouthfeel and the taste is definately a unique experience and a first for me with hints of honeyed malts,apricots,bitter pink grapefruit,a touch of marzipan,mikan fruit and finished off with a nice hit of spicy,earthy,herbal hops that make themselves well known but the sticky sweet candy malts really sugarcoat the spicy hoppiness beautifully and i have to say it is one different pilsner basically like one on steroids that you will not be able to compare to something else and most likely either love or hate.

Deep gold with steady white froth
Toasty bread crust, wet grass, butter and a vegetal herbal scent.
Toasted pan moving to all toast, like pretzels, with big peppery, sandalwood hops. Cinnamon oil and aniseed finish and tingly linger.
Medium, chewy, oily, not crisp.
A bully. A big pilsner in broad strokes, but all toast and spice (continuous Saaz!), no snappiness or subtlety. My Antonia shows how it should be done.

A: Pour is slight hazy golden with a rather large white thick head that slowly sinks into nice lacings.
S: Bready malts, semi-sweet. The Saaz hops smells more German than Czech - must be something with the water in Scotland. Fruity; mostly citric. Bitter.
T: Bitter hops galore! The dry bitterness doesn't feel right considering the Saaz hops - not bad but not what you would expect. Malt with moderate sweetness - nice.
M: Aftertaste is awesome - very like a great German Pilsener; dry bitterness for a really long time. Body is meidum, and smooth. Carbonation is medium.
O: This is actually a really nice Imperial Pilsner; well balanced and with great bitterness.

Poured from a 33cL bottle into a BrewDog cervoise glass. Batch 43. Best before 27 March 2012. From notes. Reviewed 30 May 2011.
A: Bright white head...short-lived. Thin beads of bubbles on the side. Clearish pale gold. Good lacing.
S: Pale maltiness. Grassy. Citrus hops.
T: Shockingly good. Grainy, flavourful-sweet, and one of the best pilsners I've ever had. Still lagery, and sort of straight-forward. That said, the extra alcohol and general over-the-topness made it really nice. A bit citrusy.
M: Drying at times, wet at others. Grainy and fun.
O: Delicious pilsner. Quite strong. Definitely recommended. I might drink again.

330ml bottle bought from Gapwines, Belfast
Poured a slightly hazy golden honey colour. Slightly off white head poured fairly thick and foamy with a whipped meringue like top then faded slowly to a good one finger covering which lasted throughout... lots of sticky lacing patches coat the glass all the way down...
Aroma - Spicy tart fruits (oranges (peel?), pears, lime), very grassy (freshly cut), lots of floral notes, sea saltiness, quite rubbery, chalky notes, some soapiness, peppery hop bitterness, very herbal - some hints of basil, some tobacco notes, some graininess...
Taste - Lots of harsh grassy and peppery hop bitterness up front followed by lots of herbal notes, light biscuity malts, some grainy sweetness, metallic notes, light marzipan traces, tart fruits (grapefruit, lime, pear), some alcohol warmth just coming through, faint tobacco...
Feel - Pretty sharp and dry... medium bodied... fairly drinkable at 7.5% but just a bit harsh to want more than one...
Overall - A fairly average brew.. there are much better Impy Pilsners around - Mikkeller's Draft Bear and Birra Del Borgo's My Antonia both show how it should be done... worth a try once..

330mL bottle thanks to Chris@Slowbeer.
Textbook orange, clear as day, with a finger or so of white fine bubbles which dissipate to a raised ring.
Nose is not at all as expected, being dominated by floral honey, citrus peel and pear aromas I more often associate with Belgian yeast character. Good amount of nutty malts, marzipan and cassia bark. Interesting.
Seriously busy. The combination of aggressive bitterness with the signature Saaz spiciness makes unpacking the flavours quite difficult. The aromas are here, but they're obscured. There's a blur of citrus, hazelnut, marzipan, orange sherbet, pepper, cress, and a strong, clean, Fisherman's Friend character.
Feels light for 7.5%. Spritzy carbonation and a suitably dry finish which keeps the bitterness form lingering.
Quite an interesting brew. Respect the innovation but the hopping seems a little gratuitous for mine.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5
330ml bottle purchased from Slowbeer and poured into a Mikkeller tulip style glass.
Has a orange appearance with a hint of gold about it. Hazy and with a generous glow to it, it has a nice white head of foam that turns to film after a couple of minutes.
Smell is very intense, even for the style. Plenty of ingredients used in this one. Has a strong Euro hop aroma, backed with plenty of sweet malt. Very full on compareed to others of the style.
Taste has plenty of lightly toasted malt flavour, along with a hoppy spiciness that is relatively big.
Mouthfeel is quite full, particularly early and this dies off a bit late to help you take another sip, but probably a bit over the top in this regard.
Bigger isn't necessarily better, plenty going on, some good points to it, but the actual drinking side of it doesn't reach the lofty heights that this could.

330ml bottle, consumed May 2011, BBE 2012.
A - Hazy golden body with a large, tightly-bubbled head with good retention, leaving decent lacing and cling.
S - Slightly fruity, floral notes with some hop on the back end of the aroma.
T - Hop notes lead the taste, with some sweeter malts for balance, leading to a lingering bitter finish.
M - Medium body, punchy carbonation with a lingering finish.
O - Overall not a bad one; maybe a little high on the alcohol front for a session beer (7.5% ABV) but nice enough for one or a couple.

A: Pours a lovely, cloudy yellow-orange with a dense white head leaving some fantastic lacing.
S:Nutty notes surrounded by bread are apparant on the nose with not much else.
T: Light bread and soft citrus to start out the taste followed quickly by a strong grapefruit note.
M: Has a full mouth feel with a piney bitterniss on the finish.
O: Good and well crafted beer but not really along the lines of a Czech pils. Still liked it though

Pours a golden orange filtered beer into the regular half pint brewdog glass. White head, kinda pilsner that disappear very fast.
The aroma is quite hoppy, earthy, you can feel the brtitish hops used in this one.
The taste interesting, malty notes at first that turns smooth. Not that much bitter than i expected. Good carbonation, the aftertaste is honorable for a pilsner. Quite interesting after all.

J/24 North American Championship - Mollicone and Bream shine on Day 1
Fri, 16 Nov 2012
The 2012 J/24 North American Championship opened up in a swashbuckling fashion as John Mollicone's 11th Hour Racing and Peter Bream's Team Tarheel went neck-to-neck against each other over two races and finished the day with four points each to lead the rest of the pack heading into the second day of competition.
Mollicone drew first blood by winning the first race with Bream finishing in second and Robby Brown's USA 799 taking the third spot. The second race saw Rossi Milev's Clean Air finishing first with Bream winding up in second again and Mollicone nabbing a point after nabbing third place. Milev currently stands in third in the four-day race off the beautiful coast of Jacksonville, Florida.
Conditions in Jacksonville were cool and overcast, with winds starting at 6-8 knots and a slight chop before dying out for a while in the afternoon. The breeze then filled in for race two at 5-7 knots.
Twenty-nine teams are competing in the event at the Florida Yacht Club, and racing continues through Sunday.

The Exile
In Search of J.D. Salinger
Sad things can happen when an author chooses the wrong subject: first the author suffers, then the reader, and finally the publisher, all together in a tiny whirlpool of pain. Ian Hamilton's book, In Search of J.D. Salinger, seems to have set in dolorous motion all of the above. The author's misunderstandings begin on page one, and his groans only a page or so later. And at the end Mr. Hamilton is still wearing his bitterness rather awkwardly on his sleeve, his publisher has become, as Hamilton puts it, "preoccupied," and the reader doesn't know which way to look.
The book's fate certainly has been an unusual one, of a kind that would have amused the Mikado. In the event you have been living in a cave, or conceivably in New Hampshire, the story, plus commentary, goes roughly like this. Four years ago, Hamilton, a lifelong Holden Caulfield fan, wrote J.D. Salinger a pro forma letter announcing a plan to write a book about him. He didn't expect an answer, partly because everyone knows that Salinger despises literary biographies and publishers too (a position shared by an ample number of writers, though you wouldn't guess it from Hamilton, who treats Salinger throughout as a man without a species, unique unto himself) and partly because "he [J.D.] was, in any real-life sense, invisible, as good as dead" (joke). Incidentally, there are a lot of (jokes) in this book.
The small but crucial distinction between dead and invisible became sufficiently clear shortly after that when Salinger, who wasn't supposed to write one dead or alive, fired off a quite vigorous letter rounding on Hamilton for harassing his family (H. had written all the Salingers in the Manhattan phone book, and had winged a couple of relatives) "in the not particularly fair name of scholarship."
Writers, sad to say, often take this philistine view of "scholarship," feeling that they don't owe it anything except their published work: again Salinger was not alone. Hamilton, however, was quite nonplused by the letter as he would subsequently be by almost everything he learned about his subject—a signal, perhaps, that he didn't quite have a feel for this thing.
One of his friends told him the letter was really a " 'come-on': 'I can't stop you' to be translated as 'Please go ahead.' " (Remember when they used to say that about girls?) Hamilton, being of slightly finer stuff, isn't quite so sure—although he sounds pretty sure to me. "He [Salinger] said he wanted neither fame nor money and by this means he'd contrived to get extra supplies of both—much more of both, in fact, than might have come his way if he'd stayed in the marketplace along with everybody else." Yes indeed. There is a light flurry of "on the other hand"s after this, but at book's end, when the case has achieved a certain notoriety, the …

Dynamic Health BEETROOT JUICE
Beet Juice Helps Lower Blood Pressure
Beetroot Juice with its red crimson color has, for many years, been thought to help reduce Blood Pressure.*
A new study printed in the American Heart Association journal Hypertension, now shows that indeed, Beetroot Juice does help lower blood pressure quickly.
How It Works...
Beetroot is rich in antioxidants, iron, boron and folic acid. Betanene, which gives it its deep color, is an even more potent antioxidant than polyphenols, which are the plant chemicals thought to be a key reason for people whose diets are rich in leafy vegetables have lower blood pressure.
Beetroot's capacity to absorb and store exceptionally high levels of nitrates earns it the super-root title. Nitrates are nutrients found in soil which all plants need to build protein, and which the body harnesses in its battle against high blood pressure.
When nitrates are present in high concentrations from Beetroot, the tongue converts them into the more reactive chemical, nitrite, and when nitrites are swallowed, they easily convert into nitric oxide. Nitirc Acid is the chemical continually produced by our blood vessels to help them relax and keep blood pressure low.
So by ingesting Beetroot you will increase your levels of nitrates and lower your blood pressure, safe and natuarally!

Maritime News
Maritime is the movement of international trade generated by freight companies. Whether moving by container ship, heavy lift vessel or tanker, maritime accounts for some 90 percent of all global trade by volume. Container shipping handles the vast majority of consumer goods — from retail products and food to autos and auto parts. Heavy lift vessels handle big equipment for projects such as refineries, infrastructure and wind energy.
Press Releases
Call it the "mega" age. The 13,000-TEU-plus vessels that have spawned the formation and expansion of alliances such as the P3, G6 and, most recently, Evergreen's joining the CKYH are the latest examples of a container shipping industry taking dramatic measures to control its fate.

CISCO - Sydney Shelstead scored 17 points and Niya Benavides added 14 to lead the Mineral Wells Lady Rams to a 55-44 victory over Cisco here Tuesday night in a girls' non-district basketball contest.
For more see Thursday's Index.
The Mineral Wells Lady Rams (14-3) got everything they hoped for and more in the opening day of the Mineral Wells Tournament, Thursday, at Kessler Field. They swept the competition in a triple-header and dealt with a wide variety of situations, overcoming each.
The All-District 17-1A-II teams for both boys and girls basketball have been announced and rivals Gordon and Strawn have left an indelible mark on the 2013-24 edition with the two schools combining for six players on the boys team and a whopping 11 girls receiving honors.
Hot off of a 5-1 showing at the Wichita Falls Tournament, the Mineral Wells Lady Rams softball team (11-3) will open tournament play against quality competition again today from the comfort of their own home.
Palo Pinto County's most successful basketball team of the 2013-14 season can now add a bushel of accolades to an already memorable, Regional Championship year.
The Mineral Wells boys and girls track teams were on full display, Saturday, in front of a hometown crowd at the Ram Relays as the varsity girls team took seventh place with 42 point and the varsity boys finished third with 90 points.
ABILENE – It wasn't the way a community pictured their season ending.
Fresh off of a thrilling 69-65, double-overtime victory over Ira in the regional semifinals, the Graford Jackrabbits' (27-4) bid for their first trip to the state tournament since 2012 fell short Saturday afternoon with a 58-25 loss at the hands of the Water Valley Wildcats (27-5) in the Class 1A-Division II Regional Finals at Abilene Christian University's Moody Coliseum.
The 2013-14 season epitomized growth for the Mineral Wells Rams basketball team. Under the tutelage of head coach Aaron Pappas, the Rams played to a 6-4 record in District 6-3A, clinching a third place finish and a fourth-straight playoff appearance.
A successful 2013-14 campaign for the Graford Lady Rabbits basketball team was capped off last week with the announcement that senior point guard Syndey Wimberly was named "Offensive Player of the Year" by district coaches. The district runner-up Lady Rabbits also placed five girls on the All-District 11-!A-II team.
ABILENE -- "Survive and advance" is the name of the game come tournament time. And with their backs against the wall, the Graford Jackrabbits (27-3) did just that, holding off the Ira Bulldogs, 69-65, in double-overtime in the Class 1A-Division II Regional Semifinals at Abilene Christian University's Moody Coliseum.
A successful season full of growth for the Mineral Wells girls' basketball team was capped off in style this week when the district coaches announced that the Lady Rams placed seven players on the All-District 6-3A team and garnered three individual awards – two of which went to two of the Lady Rams youngest rising stars.

"Very impressive tablet that allows for creation/typing"
4.5 starson by barrett1134Pros: First tablet that truly can be used for creation and typing, and that actually lives up to that need
Ports and expandable memory :USB,HDMI compatibility, SDXC cards
Fast and beautiful to use (Win 8 RT)
Long battery life
Awesome kickstand and keyboardCons: Obviously very light on popular iOS and Android apps for now.
Windows RT is really good, but will need some TLC and a few updates to smooth out the rough edges.
Learning to use another new OS takes a bit of getting used to.
Wish Office 2013 was MetroSummary: Having had a chance to get a hands on with this today (friend of mine works at MS and has had it for a bit but finally let me check it out) I can say I no longer have any reservations about ordering this.It is amazing, and makes my iPad feel kinda old. I have toyed with Windows 8 a bit on some older non-touch laptops. Actually being able to use the touch screen took me from being impressed but somewhat skeptical of Win8 to being a believer. It just works, and I am impressed. I believe in the Microsoft vision. I own a Windows Phone now (used to own BB and Android), and I love my XBOX a bit too much... That said, I wasn't really completely sold on Windows 8 until today. I ordered a Surface knowing it might sell out, and hoping that if it was a great product I would end up being the first to own one, but if it wasn't great, then being able to return it. I love it. My iPad is great. Kids love the apps (which I will surely need to see more of in the marketplace for Win8 RT), but I needed and now will finally have a tablet that I can type on and build and run PowerPoint presenations at my school/business. This is huge, and using a keyboard that so beautifully attaches/detaches from this tablet, I suspect I will eventually wonder how Apple didn't see this coming and never built one. All in all, Microsoft has some obvious work to do to clean up some rough edges... I am sure with a little more time I will see them more and more, but there were a few just in my time giving this a spin. That said, the experience is really amazing to hold and use. I am really really impressed so far, and I think that the future is bright for Windows 8 products (not just Surface). Also, I am split between the Surface and the Surface Pro (w/ intel inside). I truly wish I could have an intel one today, but I believe the cost will be more than I want to part with today. As I need to replace an aging and nearly dead HP laptop, I am now confident that the Surface RT will fill the needs of my previous laptop usage well, and instead I will be buying an All-in-One touch screen HP or Dell soon. So, in short, I went from being on the fence but leaning towards expecting this to be a good/great product, to being convinced it is a good/great product. If you want a tablet that allows for all of the current functionality of 10" tablets, but also want a modern, beautiful, and exciting new User Interface that allows for typing and actual creation of Powerpoint, Word, and Excel type productivity, the Surface is a great candidate in a class of its own. If you need the apps right now because the tablet is used to keep kids busy or you have a very specific app need, you likely wont get any of that for at least a few months (Apple's app store has about 250k of apps, and Windows app store is not projected to be at 250k apps until this time next year). My suggestion is to go to a Microsoft store and give it a shot and see what you think. Personally, I am loving what I tried this morning. Also, I believe that the 7" tablets are a great choice for consumption, while 10" tablets like this are gonna be your best choice for creation... just my two cents. Enjoy it. It is fantastic!
So, I have been using the Surface for nearly a month now, and for what equates to several hours a day. I have found things I love, and things I don't love. That said, this is still the most amazing piece of Tech I have ever personally used. It is everything I have been looking for in a tablet, and yet it has nearly replaced my laptop. I say nearly, because the Surface is not as powerful as my 3year old HP Gaming laptop. I can and do use my Surface for typing articles, browsing the web, video consumption, games, and most importantly running PowerPoint presentations. For all of those things, it is absolutely terrific. The kickstand is incredible, and the Touch Cover keyboard is very functional. The areas I would love to see improved come down to some nitpicky things like getting Office 2013 to run only in Metro interface. And, just to point out that the Type Cover will be my next purchase as I tried one the other day and it truly is a full keyboard that is ridiculously thin. Grade = A-

TIKRIT, Iraq, Feb 16 (Reuters) - At least 17 people were
killed in attacks across Iraq on Sunday as troops fought to
evict Islamist militants from the northern town of Sulaiman Pek,
security sources and medics said.
Armoured vehicles and special police forces with heavy
machineguns arrived in Sulaiman Pek to reinforce troops battling

She Works, She Lives! (Elle Travaille, Elle Vit! French, 2008) is a documentary that explores the role of women in Senegalese society and highlights the importance of girl's education in particular. Each of the five Senegalese women interviewed for the film come from diverse backgrounds and followed distinct paths to get to where they are today. Some of them come from small villages while others come from urban environments, some from supportive families and others from less supportive families. But at some point in their lives, each of these five women realized that she had the potential to be more and to achieve more than what was expected of her. This documentary looks at the histories of these inspiring women, the feelings they have about their work and their upbringing, and their hopes for the future of women in Senegal.
The film is being distributed to Peace Corps Volunteers and schools throughout Senegal along with a packet of supplemental educational materials to facilitate discussions regarding the role of women in Senegalese society.

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States. More than two million people are diagnosed with skin cancer annually. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation (SCF), one in five Americans will develop skin cancer in the course of his or her lifetime. Each year, there are more new cases of skin cancer than breast, prostate, lung, and colon cancers combined. If left untreated, the disease can be deadly, but if skin cancer is caught while still in its early stages, the outlook is usually positive.
