BATESVILLE, AR (KAIT) – Local mail carriers will pick up
more than just letters this weekend.
They will also collect food donations as part of the nation's
largest annual food drive called "Stamp Out Hunger."
Donating to the cause is simple. All someone has to do is
leave a bag of non-perishable food items by the mailbox on Saturday, May 11.
The letter carriers will then deliver it to an area food pantry, like
Batesville Help & Hope.
In the past when Carolyn Wilson has seen a bag set by a
mailbox, she's thought: "Oh, praise the Lord because that is a giving person."
Wilson hopes a lot of people in the Batesville area are in a
giving mood this weekend.
"If you have just one or two cans, those cans will go to
good use," she said.
Wilson is the food coordinator at Batesville Help &
Hope, which expects to receive about 10,000 pounds of food through the "Stamp
Out Hunger" food drive.
"I hope that Help & Hope has more than they know what to
do with," said Doug Davis, a local letter carrier. "That would be exciting."
Davis and the other letter carriers in Batesville will be
busy Saturday. They will not only deliver mail that day but also pick up food
donations along their routes.
"We have all these things that happen like in Boston and
around the world," he said, "and you know what – people always step up and help
folks that are hurting."
All the donations collected this weekend should last less
than two months at the food pantry because of the growing number of people in
need in the Batesville area.
"It's amazing how fast the food goes out of here," Wilson
said. "We serve about 1,200 families a month."
Wilson has seen the amount of giving go up each year during
the letter carriers' food drive, and she fully expects that trend to continue
this time.
"Just make sure that you have your bag at the mailbox
[Saturday]," she said. "That is the main thing for this Saturday!"
The "Stamp Out Hunger" food drive is happening all across
the country and Northeast Arkansas.
People should not worry if they're not home Saturday or
forget to leave a bag of food outside. The letter carriers say they will still
pick up donations through next week.

amber in color with copious amounts of carbonation bubbling up toward the surface throughout. Nice white head on top, maybe an inch and a half before settling down to coat the inside of the glass for a minute. Interesting aroma, mix of grains, light bready malts, and a touch of a grassy, herbal hoppiness. Nothing crazy here but nicely balanced. Same could be said for the flavor, nice pale taste, light bready notes balancing a herbal sort of hop

This brew pours a deep cola-brown hue, and is topped with a modicum of micro-bubble and some encircling lace. The aroma is fruity and somewhat sweet; it reminds me quite a bit of Rodenbach. The flavor is, again, in Flemish sour territory. Raisin-y maltiness is prevalently featured, as are light balsamic notes. Wood flavor is very slight. The feel is medium-bodied, and more quenching than dry. It's not what I expected (though I hardly knew what to expect); overall, it is pleasantly surprising.

Huge thanks to LaCoursiere for this bottle:
A: Pours a deep mahogany. A very rich brown/red with a beautiful ½ finger tan head. Some nice lacing at first, but that fades quickly as I drink.
S: The beer smells of wood, raisins, plums, smoke and sour. I also get a little bit of molasses in the nose. The red wine ageing is detectable too. I'm excited to try this.
T: Initial hit is malty sweetness with a lot of flavor from the wine barrels. After the initial notes fade I pick up on the smoke and wood, followed by the some more red wine aging (mostly fruity and sour). This is a really interesting beer. I don't think I've ever had anything quite like it.
M: The mouthfeel is great. It's not light, not too heavy. Nothing too thin and nothing too chewy/sticky. Fantastic.
O: I'm really diggin' on this beer. It has a great look, and a wonderful nose. The taste is something that I've never experienced before. I wouldn't want to drink this all the time, but I'd keep coming back to it when I'm in the mood for it.

A - Mohagany colored beer with no real head and nothing left on the sides as far as stick goes.
S - I'm not a huge fan of Altbiers, but this does have some other stuff going on in there. Some hops, a bit of vinous influence. It is a little fruity as well.
T - Sweet malts, wine influence on it, and a little fruity. There are some darker, chocolate notes that I was not anticipating from this beer, as well as some vanilla and generic barrel taste.
M - Medium bodied with some active carbonation bite.
O - Not bad, it's a little above average and has some unusual things going on for an Altbier, but nothing I would really seek out or drink again.

22oz bottle with a date of 09/19/10.
A - Poured into a Duvel tulip glass. Poured dark brown w/ a dark red hue. It had a 1/2 finger khaki head that dissipated quickly to a thin collar that remained. The clarity of the beer could be seen by holding to the light.
S - Fruits of cherry and grape. The oak notes are there kind of mixing with the fruit to smell kind or like port wine. Slightly smoked malt peeks through the fruits.
T - Dark fruity wine notes up front that fade to roasted and slightly smoky malts. The oak characters peaks through at different points depending on the sip. Faint molasses and brown sugar sweet notes from the malts are present in the middle.
M - Medium bodied with light carbonation and a dry, slightly chalky finish. No alcohol presence.
O/D - I was lucky to find this still on the shelf several days ago. Excellent brew from Schell's. I can say this is my favorite from them thus far. The smoke and wine flavors work very well together. Sometimes I tasted more wine and sometimes I tasted more smoke. Quite a fun tasting experience.

3.7/5 rDev -6.3%
A: Deep brown with a golden amber tint; this looks like thin motor oil; a nice head that dissipateds rather quickly to a thin, tan film; beautiful lacing that fades a bit too quickly
S: Sweet caramel and raisins on top of a sweet bready malt quality, but this also has a strong, deep red wine aroma--lots of dark fruits and grapes as well as a smokey oak quality; a tad boozy
T: This is pretty subdued and thin but a pleasant grainy and wine quality does persist; a bit of a peaty oaky quality but mostly grains with dark fruits--grapes, raisins, cherries, etc.
F: Not much carbonation and a bit thin but the beer does manage to coat the mouth fairly well
O: The wine and thinness become a bit grating after a while; this beer does have complexity and it grows on you as you drink but it's a sipper and one you will want to share

$10.49 for a 22 oz. bottle.
A: deep, dark mahogany color, very little head
S: mild nose, some roasted malt with hints of barrel aging but not much else
T: nice ale but really not much with respect to barrel aging, well-made beer but not much of anything for standing out
M: somewhat disappointing, thin, watery mouthfeel
O: very disappointed, I was expecting more from the barrel aging

An interesting Beer for sure... Pours reddish with a bit of head. Very clear. Smells like wine and malt. A lot of red wine on the nose. Tastes like a malty red wine... Vry weird. A bit thin but well carbonated. Not really all that flavourful. Not something i would drink again

Pours a very pretty deep reddish brown with a medium head leaving some lace. The aroma is fruity and earthy with some oaky wood notes. The flavor is fruity at first with some banana and some dark fruit the beer is just mildly roasty and very dry. There are plenty of earthy notes and the red wine character is there, although I don't know if I would detect it say if the bottle didn't say "aged in a red wine barrel" This is very tasty none the less. If anything this rounds Schmaltz Alt out very nicely and drops the metallic note that can sometimes be mildly off putting in a beer I otherwise love.

Served in a Half Acre shaker pint glass.
Thanks to VDubb86 for sharing this BIFed bottle!
I don't believe I've tried a barrel-aged alt before, so here's to another BA tick (nickd would be so proud...)! It pours a deep ruby-brown topped by over a finger of dirty ecru foam. The nose comprises musty red grapes, plum, orange peel, soap, buttery caramel, and some light oak. The taste holds notes of figs, raisins, plums, and red grapes. From then, it delves into a weak red table wine, disregarding all that preceded it. Allowing it to warm up a bit allowed the wine to consume all else, resulting in a sort of weak port. This is truly odd, but not altogether off-putting. The body is a straight medium with a very light moderate carbonation. Overall, this is quite the oddball brew, but with every sip I feel I must go for yet another very soon, if for no other reason than to see what lies beyond the next taste.

Thanks to Lenny1203 for this beer
Pours a super dark amber color with an ecru foam on the surface. There are aromatic notes of oak, red grapes, plums, and brown sugar. The taste is malty up front and finishes more oaked. The flavors are muddled together, but not wholly bad. There are distinct tannins from grapes in this beer. The mouthfeel is a tad bit astringent and way too watery for my liking. It still drinks pretty well, but I must admit it's not one of my favorite beers.

22 oz bomber. Rare tasting.
Pours a clear dark brown, at 1 inch you can read through it. Foamy tan head recedes, active carbonation.
Aroma is clean and fresh, toasty, consistent with a good alt.
I love this style and this is a great one. The crisp clean toastiness is wonderfully refreshing. There is a slightly tangy tart apply quality, perhaps that hint of fruit is imparted by the red wine barrels. It is a lovely effect. Great session beer!

Roasted chestnut with sunny Sunkist edges. The pour produced a good-sized crown of pale caramel colored foam that has a bubbly surface and looks like it wants to hang around for a spell. Lace is pretty nice and so is the overall appearance.
The nose is too subdued. Essentially none of the dark malts are noted... nor is much else. Even though it's probably nothing more than the power of suggestion, a lightly tangy red wine essense is appreciated. This offering is the standard Schmaltz's Alt that was aged in barrels that had previously held pinot noir.
It isn't overpowering, or even prominent, but there's a definite red grape quality to this brew that matches the medium-dark malts pretty well. It isn't quite enough, though, to turn an above-average (3.5) altbier into a solidly good (4.0) altbier.
ASBC's BASA needs more POP! on the palate, which could easily be achieved with a more focused hoppiness. Specifics include brown bread with a thin layer of fruit jam, miniscule amounts of dark caramel and nuts... and a splash of red wine. More power and more definition would easily add a half-point to the taste score, because it's almost there already.
The mouthfeel is a disappointment. It's a little too thin and the carbonation gives it almost no lift or volume. More malt and better bubbles would fix it right up.
In the end, Barrel Aged Schmaltz's Alt is slightly better beer than Schmaltz's Alt by virtue of having been barrel-aged. Unfortunately, time in the wood has impacted the mouthfeel negatively, as it often does. This is batch #1 in the new Stag Series.

22oz bottle consumed at Stub during Darkness weekend...A dark brown with amber on the sides, a half finger of light head but light carbonation...A light aroma red wine, wood and a touch of hops, the combo sounds ok, just nothing great...The taste is bland, dark fruits on the back, light hops. The feel is so light, less than water that it really distracts the beer. Aging an alt beer was not a good idea, this beer is a light mess not worth drinking and the wood doesn't improve it.

22oz bottle shared with Jason and Mike at Stub and Herb's. Served in a pint glass.
A - Pours with a half-finger of off-white foam that settles to a thick ring and partial cap. Transparent when held to the light, with a dark ruby hue.
S - Not much of the red wine mentioned on the bottle - mostly just vanilla and barrel notes instead. Some vinous and apple malt character.
T - Taste is very grape-heavy and filled with malt sweetness. Again, not very much red wine or barrel character. Generic beer aftertaste.
M - Medium carbonation zing, smooth medium body, and no alcohol (not that there should be any at 5.1%).
D - Even splitting this three ways, it was tough to finish. A rare tick, but not a good one. Didn't seem like it was in the barrel for very long.

A- Poured into the Schells 150 anniversary glass that was free with the purchase of a 22oz bottle of barrel aged Schmaltzs Alt. The color is a dark ruby mahogany with a slight tan head.
S- A very dark fruit scent almost like a sherry.
T- Very smooth with dark fruit taste figs, cherries almost like a belgian sour ale. You can also taste the red wine barrel aging coming through.
MF- Smooth almost an oily feel, no carbonation very warm feel for low alcohol.
D- What a great beer very complex with all different scents and flavors coming through low alcohol so the bomber is just right.

Review #1100. Figured this would be a good one to do considering it's Schell's big anniversary and a 'milestone' for me.
Poured into Bruery Snifter
Pours ½ finger of creamy beige head. Fades down, leaving some rings. Color is a dark dark brown.
Aroma: Notes of licorice, cherries, plums, toffee, and caramel up front. There is some oak showing with slight wine notes, maybe some grapes. Pretty decent alt.
Taste: The wine notes are right up front with this beer providing a very slight sour flavor. It does has a nice oak profile as well with some hints of vanilla. Then the malts come in. Lots of caramel malts here. Some dark fruits as well. Cherries, raisins, licorice all show. Very rich and malty.
Mouthfeel: Crisp and smooth. A lighter bodied, but at 5.1% I wouldn't expect it to be too big. A decent amount of carbonation as well. Ends a bit dry with malt flavors.
Overall, I think this beer is good. It is an awesome alt and really represents the style well with some addition flavors from the barrels. Pretty drinkable as well since it isn't very big, yet it still has a great amount of flavors.

A - thick tan head that settles into a lacing, clear dark ruby color, leaves a nice lacing as it drains
S - dark grains and an almost grape-like scent that blends together nicely
T - smooth dark roasted grain flavor with a touch of wood-like character on the finish; hop bitterness is nearly undetectable but does not finish sweet at all, very balanced; touch of roast on the finish and some faint tannins; esters are very restrained
M - medium body, moderate carbonation
D - This is a very interesting and intriguing beer. For their 1st limited release Schell has come up with something familiar but different, not to mention tasty. I'd pick up another bottle if I get the opportunity.

Aroma: A bright and full nose of red cherries with just a hint of oak following that up. Some dark fruits are also noted. ABV is not stated on the bottle but there is a moderate among of alcohol spice coming off the beer as well. A bit of chocolate is just barely noticeable. No hop aroma.
Appearance: Black body with clear ruby highlights along the edges and top. Head poured about one finger of tan large bubbles, but faded quickly to a trace of a ring along the outside.
Flavor: Light caramel blended with some plum and roasted malt. Sweet chocolate works its way in as well toward the middle where hop bitterness makes a showing ever so slightly. Finish is very clean with a touch of malt sugars left behind for sweetness.
Mouthfeel: Light body with light carbonation. It's either the roast or barrel aging that give a sense of dryness on the palate right in the middle, then the beer ends very crisp and dry. Light visit from hop bitterness in the finish.
Overall: Surprisingly light flavors coming off this beer, especially when you consider the relatively complex aroma. The dark fruit and light cherry character is very nice in the nose, but doesn't fully transcend to the flavor. A nice beer to enjoy on a cool Autumn evening, but still an easy drinking ale.

Please consult the grade level newsletters for upcoming field trips or contact your student's teacher and let them know you are interested in volunteering with field trips.
Experiential Days
During Experiential Days, children venture beyond the classroom, supervised by teachers and parents, to share a broad variety of experiences on and off campus with other students of mixed ages. Volunteers are needed to lead, assist leaders, drive, and provide food or other materials for these non-traditional and highly memorable learning activities. If you are interested in participating with Experiential Days, please email Vicki Roscoe, Lower School head.
Food Drive
Each fall, during harvest time, the Lower School organizes a food drive to benefit Oregon Food Bank. We need volunteers to assist with assembling and transporting the collected food donations to Oregon Food Bank or other groups. If you are interested in participating, please email Julie Higgins, Lower School administrative assistant.
Pet Day and Field Day
Each year, the Lower School hosts two separate afternoon events in the last week of school. Pet Day involves a dog show outdoors and small animal viewing, usually in the Art Barn, both requiring supervision for safety and comfort of animals and children. Field Day involves a variety of track and field activities that may require volunteer assistance for set-up and supervising events under the guidance of the P.E. department. Opportunities to volunteer are posted in the Crier newsletter before the events.

Ways to Give: Leadership & Major Gifts
The Leadership Gifts Division of Institutional Advancement seeks to establish, develop and enhance long-term philanthropic relationships with the alumni, parents and friends of Haverford College.
A primary goal of these valued relationships is to communicate the College's key priorities and to find avenues that align these initiatives to the passion and interests of our donors. The Leadership Gifts staff collaborates closely with other I.A. departments, as well as with faculty, students and staff of the Haverford community. Leadership Gifts seeks to develop appropriate and thoughtful ways to engage our alumni and friends in the life of the College. We seek to enhance their current experience of the College, so that gifts can be inspired by more than nostalgia, and so our alumni derive true value from their current Haverford associations. The Leadership Gifts staff approaches donors primarily through personal visits, targeted cultivation events, and through our alumni volunteers.
Endowed gifts are gifts or pledges of $100,000 or more over five years. Endowed gifts contribute to the long range plans of the college by building and preserving our purchasing power. Gifts of less than $100,000 are directed to the Annual Fund to support the vibrancy of current activities at the College. Together, endowment gifts and Annual Fund contributions are the vital signs of the College's fiscal health, and directly impact the quality of the education and experience that Haverford can offer its students - today and in the generations ahead. The College is deeply grateful for the generosity of our alumni and friends, and our collective energy in the stewardship of this 180+ year old institution.

Town Square
Do not enter signs on the children's bedroom doors
Original post made by Wondering on Oct 26, 2006
I have been reading this newgroup on a regular basis and there is a wealth of information that gets exchange. Occassionally discussions go down the 'flame' path - but most of the times the honest opinions reveal a lot more. So, here is a question that I have had for a long time - and please, don't take this on the wrong path. I am not passing any judgement - just want to know when thing started changing and what do parents /grandparents think about it.
A few years ago, there was news about a teenager collecting ammunition in his bedroom and wanting to blow up some part of DeAnza college. What surprised me the most was that the mother was not aware of the amount of ammunition the kid had in his bedroom. They were not talking about one or two guns - they found a good chunk of stuff, enough to blow up a section of a building. I think the kid got caught since some clerk at a photo development place was vigilant and called the cops (don't recall the details). What surprised me was the mother's comment - she said that the son had "Do not enter"; "Keep away" type of signs on his bedroom door and didn't like anyone comng into his room. So she wanted to respect his opinion and value his privacy and hence never went into the bedroom ... I could never fathom this part.
Recently a collegue mentioned that her sister's kid was doing drugs in his bedroom .. the sister didn't know and was not aware, since the kid would not let anyone enter his room.
I grew up in an Asian country - in a city where space was a premium. We had a two bedroom apartment and had grandparents staying with us. We were three kids. All the rooms were open to anyone and everyone ... when it was time to study or if we needed a moment on our own, we found some comfortable chair or plopped a cushion in the corner of a room -- and it worked just fine. I fondly recall relatives/extended family showing up at our door step (unannounced) and the letter announcing their arrival reaching on the following day (LOL). The whole thing about needing privacy, not wanting to share what was going on with the others in the family was never even an issue.
My parents didn't snoop into our things, but they were aware of what was going on. Each one of us kids had hidden treasures (candies) and diaries placed in strategic locations in the house - but thats as far as it went.
Recently I was talking with our elderly neighbor, who said "things were not this way" when she was growing up( 70+ yrs ) ! She grew up in Palo Alto and had one of those track three bedroom homes. They were two sisters sharing a room and parent walked in anytime. She was very upset with the "younger generation of these days and their attitudes :)"
When did the things change - what do parents on this group feel about the "do not enter" type of signs on the doors and how do you handle if your kid asks you to keep out of his/her room ?
on Oct 26, 2006 at 3:15 pm
This may not be the expected answer, but I tell my kids that they can have privacy when they are in the room, provided it is tidy. However, if I find the room stinks from dirty clothes, uneaten food, etc. then the privilege goes. I also tell them that unless they want to do their own laundry, prepare their own food and get no allowance, then their rooms are not their own private place except for times when they are there. We have had huge ant problems due to half eaten candy, maggots from uneaten lunches left in backpacks and dreadful smells from (dare I say it) rotting sanitary pads hidden under beds, that my kids get the picture. This scenario happens even when I do go into their rooms on a daily basis just to take in piles of clean laundry, help find missing library books/homework/sports equipment, so I have no idea what would happen if I didn't. If a teenager lives at home then their room is part of the home and any privacy is a privilege. It certainly doesn't mean their room is out of bounds and if I saw any of my kids trying that one on, then I know it would be time to search the room to see what was being hidden. I don't think I would expect bombs or drugs, but perhaps cigarettes, porn or condoms. But who knows, maybe finding these sort of things would prevent anything worse being found later on. It comes down to communication and trust with a sense of responsibility on both sides.
on Nov 1, 2006 at 12:59 pm
As is obvious from the teenage party thread, I am legally responsible for my teenagers' behavior. I will not give them the luxury of uninvaded privacy while this is so, either in their rooms or online. They're very sensible kids and it's never been an issue, but if they demanded that I never enter their room (what, not even to talk to them?), I would think that it was because they were trying to hide something. At the very least, they would be treating our shared family home as a hotel set up for their convenience - another behaviour I oppose.
on Nov 1, 2006 at 1:05 pm
I agree wholeheartedly. If the parents of the teens at the party had invaded their child's bedroom, or questioned them about their plans for the evening, much of the problems at the party would have been eliminated. As parents of teenagers, it is each of us our responsibility for the behavior of our children. Respecting their space and privacy are only something they can earn and ony goes so far. How do any of us know whether our teens are hiding alcohol or drugs? I for one would rather find out before they are driving drunk or high. A row with your child at home is far better than grieving over a hospital bed or coffin.

Bus maker Ashok Leyland will be sewing up at least three overseas joint ventures in the next two to three months, as it looks to consolidate its presence in new geographies.
The firm is in the final stages of inking joint ventures in Indonesia, Chile and Nigeria, keeping the majority holding in each of these partnerships. While Ashok Leyland will be exporting the kits, the foreign partners will be responsible for assembling and marketing the buses and trucks.
"We are zeroing in on geographies that are not much affected by the global economic slowdown. This year we are targeting to sell 15,000 vehicles in the global market," Antony Lobo, Special Director (International Operations), told Business Line.
Last fiscal, the company sold 12,800 buses overseas, notching up a revenue of Rs 1,500 crore, which was 15 per cent of its total turnover. This year the target is Rs 1,700 crore, with the company expecting the new joint ventures to give a significant push to its overseas sales.
Lobo was in Hyderabad to receive the Top Exporter award from the Engineering Export Promotion Council, Southern Region, for 2010-11.
In Indonesia, Ashok Leyland, part of the Hinduja Group, is tying up with Indonesian airline operator Lion Air, who will be setting up an assembly unit there as part of the venture.
"We are yet to finalise the precise holdings of the partners in the JV, though we will be having majority stake," Lobo said.
In Chile, Ashok Leyland will partner with its local dealer there, keeping 98 per cent share in the JV.
"In Nigeria, we may have partnerships with two local firms. One will import our kits and the other will be involved in the assembly. These deals will be finalised in the next couple of months," he said.
It had plans to enter Egypt through a similar route, but has deferred the project for the moment due to the political situation in that country.

Heathfield man wakes to find 28 sheep in his garden
Updated 6:52pm Friday 25th January 2013 in News By Ben James
A man was left rubbing his eyes in disbelief after opening his front door to find 28 sheep staring at him.
Mark Nichols got the fright of his life at 3am today (January 25) when he went to investigate a noise coming from his garden.
Still half asleep, he poked his head out the door to discover the flock eating his plants.
The man, of New Pond Hill, Cross in Hand, near Heathfield, contacted the police but the farmer is yet to be found.
In an attempt to solve the mystery himself, he took to Twitter.
In one post, he said: "That's my sleep gone. Dog barking wildly. Police at my door, 28 sheep in my front garden!"
Later he added "Get the flock out of here."
This afternoon he posted: "Some of these sheep look pretty big. Concerned they are gonna lamb soon. Think I better buy some long gloves on the way home #sheepgate."
The police issued an appeal this afternoon in an attempt to find the farmer.
A spokesman said: "We have so far been unable to find the owner of the sheep and we would ask that anyone who has lost some sheep gets in contact with us.
"We are very grateful to the resident who has kept the sheep safe while enquiries are carried out and would like to thank him for his patience."
Anyone with information should call 101 quoting serial 192 of 25/1.

When we went back and published the French Traveler patterns from an old issue of burda style magazine, I knew I had to make the Illusion Neckline Dress! I love illusion necklines, and the photography for this pattern really drew me in. I have been holding on to this Liberty printed cotton from Britex Fabrics for a while now. I got it in San Fransisco with Jamie when we went there to promote the new book…I literally bought it 20 min before I left for the airport!
I wanted a simple design to showcase the printed fabric (it's a neon graphic of the Tokyo skyline). So I thought the Illusion Dress was perfect, since it had only only style line. I omitted the waist elastic casing an inseam pockets to reduce bulk. Next time I wear this dress I will probably belt it to give it better shape. To pair with the printed fabric I got a green silk chiffon from Mood Fabrics. I originally went there to buy a black sheer fabric, but I just loved how the green complemented the print. I bought pre-made white bias tape to bind the armhole, back key-hole and neckline edges. I really love how it turned out.
With the dress I am wearing a pair of leggings that I made from our Carol Leggings pattern. These leggings fit wonderfully! I love how this pattern doesn't have a side seam so it is so smooth to wear on the legs. These leggings are made in an iridescent metallic spandex I found at Spandex World (favorite place). I found the pattern to be a bit tall so I had to take off about 2" from the top, but overall I really like this pattern and will definitely be making more leggings…so stay tuned!

Result: Melvin Manhoef def. Denis Kang by KO (Knee to the body), R1
Melvin Manhoef is known for his brutal KO power, and he displayed that once again tonight. On the merged DREAM 18 - GLORY 4 card, Manhoef took on PRIDE and UFC veteran Denis Kang, and the fight didn't even last long.
Kang engaged early, and Manhoef made him pay. After a brief firefight, Manhoef got the Muay Thai plum, and landed one of the most brutal knees I've ever seen. One big knee, and Kang collapsed to the mat instantly, prompting the ref to stop the fight.
It was a quick night in the office for Manhoef, and he displayed the brutal power that made him a cult favorite among hardcore fans. Manhoef is now enjoying a ressurgence in his MMA career at middleweight. He has had a great 2012, and the win makes him unbeaten for the year in 4 bouts.
Following the fight, he took the mic and addressed the crowd. "You know, I am very glad be be back in Japan. This is my hometown!"

Comments: Absolutely hate that they went the Head racquet bag route and put the backpack straps on the bottom
of this 10 pack bag. This means the bottom gets dirty when you put the bag down, and therefore it gets your back dirty when you
put it on. I'd stick with the 15 Pack Bag, as the straps there are properly on the top of the bag.
Comments: A nice looking backpack that appears to be very durable and weatherproof. Only one curiosity, no
racquet handle cover provided? For those of us in rainy climates that were drawn to this bag because of the water resistance, this
omission is noteworthy.
Comments: This back pack fits the bill for the early morning bike ride to the city courts. It is sleek, stylish, and the
durable tarp material turns lots of heads. I am always complimented on this bag. It fits 2 racquets perfectly, with room for a 3rd
still holds a full change of clothes and shoes. The only thing is the middle pocket can easily drop items out of bag, so I am careful
not to fully unzip this pocket. All in all, this is great and durable back pack!
Comments: I think I've ordered just about every bag that TW sells and I've sent them all back until this one. While it
just a tad big for me, you can't beat the way it's setup. I love the large lined racquet section and the accessories area with the
dividers - just awesome! I would recommend this bag to anyone who carries a few racquets and a bunch of clothes, accessories
shoes. I play a few times a week and always have everything in my bag and ready to go and this bag is the perfect grab-and-go

When Les and Helen Brown became high school sweethearts more than 75
years ago, their parents didn't believe the match would last.
father was a businessman and prosperous landowner in Southern
California. Helen's father worked on the railroad. "Both families were
not too thrilled about the union," their son Les Brown Jr. told
TODAY.com. "The good news is they proved them wrong."
Les and Helen, who were born on the same day in 1918, celebrated 75
years of marriage in September with a quiet gathering over cake. "They
really enjoyed each other's company," Les Jr. said. "They were really
inseparable and were never apart."
That bond was so strong that
neither Les nor Helen wanted to live without each other, though they
knew that the end might be imminent. Les had been sick with Parkinson's
disease for some time, and Helen was battling stomach cancer.
recently slipped into a coma at the couple's Long Beach, Calif., home,
and hospice workers said he might live for just a few more days. Helen,
who was expected to survive for some months, became very weak. She
passed away on July 16. Les died the following day — he never knew about
his wife's death. They were 94 years old.
Les and Helen's love
story, first reported by the Long Beach Press-Telegram, has since gone
viral. Their son Daniel told TODAY.com that his parents wouldn't have
shared the same opinion of the ensuing attention.
"Mom hated
notoriety. I don't think she would have enjoyed it," he said. His
father, though, was a photographer and perhaps had an appreciation for a
warmhearted story. "He would have loved it."
Daniel said such
differences are what made his parents so well matched. Helen was very
sweet but particular about how things should be done. Les, on the other
hand, was easygoing, a "man of simple pleasures" who loved coffee and
donuts. Helen kept the family humming along while Les helped her relax
when life became hectic or complicated. "What one lacked, the other made
up for," Daniel said.
The couple loved to travel and often took road trips up the
California coast to San Francisco and Monterey. They doted on their many
grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They also shared a deep
religious faith as Jehovah's Witnesses, which helped them weather a
difficult period of their marriage in the 1950s. "They were very
forgiving of each other's foibles and weaknesses. They were so willing
to work at making themselves happy."
Daniel said that their
marriage was a testament to the power of love: "It knows no barriers and
seems to know no bounds. They were from different sides of the tracks
and it didn't seem to matter to them. After 78 years, they were very
much in love."

Lanes must not be a cash cow
9:36am Wednesday 5th December 2012 in Our View By Telegraph & Argus
The introduction of bus lanes around the Bradford district has been seen as a boon by some, and a hindrance by others.
They are a good thing if they indeed do the job they are designed for, allowing buses freer access along congested routes and keeping big and frequently-stopping vehicles out of the main flow of traffic. But some motorists will wonder whether there is enough bus traffic to warrant essentially reducing the lanes for normal traffic and thus leading to even more delays for car drivers and motorcyclists.
Bradford Council is evidently more than pleased with its bus lanes for at least one reason – since switching on cameras to catch motorists who unlawfully use bus lanes, the authority has scooped £2.3 million in fines, the equivalent of £17,000 a week.
While transgressors should and must be taken to task, it is a cause for concern that many people might have incurred charges because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time with no real intention to illegally use the bus lanes. Changes to the road system can take a long time to bed in and can be confusing to motorists, especially to those who are not regular visitors to the district.
Many people may well have wandered into bus lanes by accident and will no doubt feel aggrieved at a fixed penalty notice landing on their doormats.
If the bus lanes ultimately do their job – easing congestion, encouraging more people to use a public transport system that is clean, fast and reliable, and in the long-term improve our impact on the environment, then all well and good.
But if they are viewed as simply a cash cow for the Council, then that is not in the spirit of their design and implementation.

What would you say the value of a refurbished Cub Cadet 125 would be with rear lift arm, 42" deck and headlights?
It has had the following work:
Rebuilt engine that was bore .010 over and crank ground .010 under, new rod, piston valves and governor gears.
Rebuilt stearing with new cam follower and all new tire rod ends.
New muffler, rebuilt PTO, new headlights and switch, new front tires, new front wheel bearings, new wiring harness and battery cables.
Nice enamal paint job with period correct colors with no runs on the tractor, wheels and deck along with a set of Maple Hunter decals on the tractor and deck.
Only the rear tires (no weathering), the two belts, steering wheel cap (crazed not cracked) and the deck blades look "old", the rest looks like it did in 1968.

Piano CD interest is growing
the eponymous named Piano CD after this project has shown enocouraging and growing interest amongst listeners - I think few people realize the difficulty in simply getting people to find and then listen to your music - an online search will show millions of records - contemporary or historic availble - it might well be far more than that - billions? - I would not be surprised - part of the brilliance of the internet and social networks such as facebook et al is that the spread of word of mouth is so much more vast than pre-internet days - I truly have a global audience and people from around t...

... things have been quite quiet on the creative side this summer and with reason - recovery from writing the last History text has taken longer than expected BUT when you consider what it took I am not so surprised - if nothing else it was good to push some personal boundaries on what you can endure - the final six months I was writing 40-50 hours a week - working full time and sleeping about 2-4 hours a night - week after week - more an exercise to see how much sleep deprivation I could endure or rather how little sleep I actually needed - I admit I have tempered my belief that sleep is over...

A federated state for Israelis and Palestinians
By JAY BUSHINSKY
05/03/2012 22:47
If anyone gains from the national election likely to take place in early September, it probably will be incumbent PM Netanyahu.
State Control C'tee at W. Bank barrier
Photo: Melanie Lidman
At least one major public opinion poll gives his right-wing Likud party a two-to-one edge over its closest rival, the Labor party.
A reaffirmation of Netanyahu's leadership for up to four more years will enable him to change the partisan and personal make-up of his next coalition government.
In that case, the losers might include the Yisrael Beytenu party of Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman.
This blunt and gruff Moldavian-born politician helped set the stage for the seemingly unnecessary election by declaring that he and his followers no longer were bound by the strictures of Netanyahu's current coalition.
Under other circumstances, an election this year could have determined whether negotiations on a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian dispute can get under way.
That would have given the balloting international importance. But the fact that the Palestinian Authority has lost control of the Gaza Strip amid the fact that its current domain is limited to the West Bank seriously detracts from the election's relevance.
The negotiations, if they were renewed and am agreement were reached, would result in the existence of three states instead of two in pre-1948 Palestine, and that is a non-starter.
Gaza's Hamas rulers have declared that they oppose recognition of Israel. The Islamic organization's deputy leader, Moussa Abu Marzuk, who until recently was based in Damascus along with its supremo, Khaled Mashaal, has said that any agreement reached with Israel would be regarded only as a hudna, meaning a temporary arrangement.
His stand is based on Hamas's overriding ideological principle: That all of pre-1948 Palestine is an "Islamic legacy" and therefore must be governed by an Islamic regime. This was the view of Hamas's founder, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, and it has not changed since his death.
Consequently. the impending Israeli election will have to focus on domestic issues only, the most prominent among them being the institution of a new law covering military conscription. The legislation favored by Netanyahu not only would reduce the number of deferments extended to ultra-Orthodox yeshiva students to a minimum, but also would draft Israeli Arabs for military or other national service such as work in hospitals and other humanitarian institutions.
If Netanyahu manages to forge a new coalition that would have the middle-of-the-road Kadima party as a major component and leaves the Jewish religious and nationalist extremists on the parliamentary sidelines, he may escape the pressure constantly bearing down on him from the West Bank settlers who constantly seek territorial acquisitions.
Theoretically, he could then launch a process that would require the dismantling of a substantial number of settlements and the removal of unauthorized outposts further to the east.
A proposed exchange of territory that might enable many of the settlements to remain intact already has public support from Kadima. Its newly elected leader, Shaul Mofaz, is on the record as favoring a deal of this kind. But the transfer of thousands of hard-line settlers from the West Bank to ante bellum Israel would be a daunting if not politically impossible task.
This apparent fact of life bears out the contention that the permission given by the incumbent government and several of its predecessors for 350,000 to 500,000 Jewish settlers to move into the West Bank was a major mistake.
The financial cost of relocating them would be prohibitive, not to mention the fury of the inevitable social backlash in ante bellum Israel that would be a by-product.
All of these considerations suggest that it would be wise for Netanyahu, his party and the electorate as a whole to consider seriously whether there indeed are alternatives to the seemingly inoperable two-state solution.
One of them may be the hitherto unthinkable one-state solution: Annexation of the West Bank and extension of Israeli citizenship to its Palestinian inhabitants on the basis of total equality and political freedom.
This notion has been resisted in the past by Orthodox religious politicians who fear that it would set the stage for intermarriages between Jews and Arabs. But where and when did such an esoteric issue like intermarriage form the basis of any country's political program? That has not been the case in Ireland, Ceylon or Nigeria where rival ethnic or religious groups also are required to live under one political roof.
In the local case, the one-state solution would take the form of a federation made up of two entities – one primarily Jewish and the other primarily Arab (in demographic terms).
Each entity could have its own parliament and governmental administration.
The state as a whole could have a federal government which would be responsible primarily for national security (for the entire territory of the federated state) – foreign policy and economic affairs including a common currency for both entities (as already exists in Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip). The federal government's personnel and leadership would be drawn from the two entitities.
Ironically, annexation was originally proposed by the late Chaim Herzog when he served as the first military governor of the West Bank immediately after the Six Day War.
He was opposed then by the National Religious Party which was destined to spawn the ideological core of Gush Emunim and other Jewish settlement movements.
Its rationale then too was that annexation would foster intermarriage.
It all boils down to the likelihood that the prospective election will give Netanyahu a chance to implement domestic reforms, especially in the economic and social spheres.
These should include a more equitable distribution of private income so as to reduce or (preferably) eliminate the phenomenon of so-called "tycoons" lording it over the rest of the economy, and reduction of the cost of new or suitable housing so that young couples will be able to afford it and the deterioration of overcrowded neighborhoods can be stopped.
The winner (presumably Netanyahu) also might be in a better position to rehabilitate the tens of thousands of Africans who entered Israel illegally in the past five years, by integrating as many of them as possible and facilitating the emigration or deportation of those who cannot adjust to Israeli society to alternative destinations elsewhere in the world. These steps certainly are preferable to letting them converge on neglected urban areas, especially south Tel Aviv, and turning them into crime-infested slums.

SOURCE Iran News Update
PARIS, June 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Two committees of European and British Parliaments; Friends of a Free Iran & The Committee for Iran Freedom, are among the co-sponsors of a grand upcoming political gathering in Paris on June 27th, 2014. The event, which is in support of the democratic Iranian opposition, is expected to draw Iranians from all five continents, as well as activists and dignitaries from all over the world.
According to various media sources, last year's gathering drew more than 100,000 participants, hundreds of politicians, parliamentarians and delegates from across the political spectrum.
In a statement issued by the Friends of a Free Iran in the European Parliament: "Nearly 100 prominent dignitaries, 500 parliamentarians; from the US, Europe, Canada, Australia and the Middle East, who represent both sides of the political spectrum, have already confirmed their attendance to this event."
Britain's Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom, another sponsor of the Iran gathering and co-chaired by Lord Carlile of Berriew and MP David Amess, issued a separate statement explaining the importance of this year's gathering.
"The event on June 27 represents the growing support for democratic change by the Iranian people. Although last year brought about a Presidential change in Iran, there hasn't been any progression within the regime. Hassan Rouhani, hailed by some as a moderate, has in fact brought about the Iranian regime's most devastating period of brutality. 660 official executions took place during 2013 with over two-thirds of those during Rouhani's reign."
Their statement also details how this year's assembly will focus on the role of western governments, particularly the P5+1, with regard to Iran's continued defiance vis-a-vis enrichment of Uranium for weaponization. There will also be discussions on the changing socio-economic and political landscape under Rouhani's government and condition of Camp Liberty residents in Iraq.
Residents of Camp Liberty are members of the People's Mojahedin organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), the principal Iranian opposition movement. The MEK is the key element of the Iranian opposition coalition, the National Council of Resistance of Iran. Mrs. Maryam Rajavi is the President-elect of the NCRI.
"These Iranians have continued to face terrorist attacks at the hands of the Iraqi regime, leaving tens killed and hundreds wounded. They face an uncertain future for as long as international protection is not granted," the statement by the Parliamentary Committee for Iran Freedom stated.
"It's these gatherings that can have an impact in ensuring their safety and wellbeing." Various Iranian communities will be participating in an event on Friday, June 27th 2014 in Villepinte, Paris. The event is in support of the Iranian Democratic Opposition with special reference to human rights and political prisoners in Iran.
