The Cat is rolling. Vasily Koshechkin turned away all 23 shots he faced in Magnitogorsk's 3-0 win over Traktor. It's Koshechkin's 7th consecutive victory of the season and second shutout of the campaign. Ex-Jackets 9th rounder Sergei Mozyakin supplied a pair of goals in support.

Let's go Lightning.

Nizhnekamsk 4 vs. Ufa 3 (OT)
Andrey Vasilevskiy, Ufa, Loss, 30/34, 3.88 GAA, .882 sv%
Season totals: 5 GP, 3-1-1, 0 SO, 2.15 GAA, .928 sv%
Despite goals from former NHLer Nikita Filatov and former Lightning draft pick Alexei Glukhov, Ufa fell 4-3 today in overtime to Nizhnekamsk. Lightning prospect Andrey Vasilevskiy, at least, still has not lost in regulation this season.
Dinamo Minsk 5 vs. Khanty-Mansiysk 3
Nikita Gusev, Khanty-Mansiysk, 0-0-0, -2, 0 PIM, 0 SOG
Season totals: 9 GP, 2-2-4, E, 2 PIM
Nikita Gusev was -2 in a sparing 7:40 of ice time in Yugra's 5-3 loss to Minsk. Ex-Lightning defenseman Lukas Krajicek had a goal in the victory for Dinamo.
Speaking of ex-Lightning defensemen, in a side note, Mike Lundin currently leads the KHL in plus-minus at +14. He currently plays for Barys Astana, which is the same club Victor Hedman played for during the NHL lockout.

Khabarovsk 2 vs. Bratislava 5
Jaroslav Janus, Bratislava, DNP

Jaroslav Janus again did not dress for Bratislava. The club defeated Khabarovsk today behind goals from 5 different scorers including former Habs 4th rounder Juraj Mikus. Two straight games without dressing likely signals an injury situation for Janus.

Nikita Gusev, Khanty-Mansiysk, 0-0-0, E, 0 PIM, 3 SOG

Because of Camera's and crew invading the village, they give the residents oppertunity to become extras. I went down for funzies really...& it turned out that me, my mum, my aunt & my brother all got a part. Hoorah.
The hours were immense..Some mornings we had to be there at 7am & wouldn't finish until 9/10pm with only 2 stops for food all day...i could never do it for a living..sheesh!
One of the days i wasn't home until quarter past midnight & had to be up nice and early for the next day.
It was really fun though, and i would definately do it again, the only thing i absoloutely hated was the corsets & the fact we weren't allowed to wear ANY makeup..Nothing...not even a dash of powder or a dab of concealer. I looked hideous for a week...people didn't recognise me i was THAT UGLY!
The crew were all lovely & even the famous actors such as Imelda Staunton, Celia Imrey & Julia McKenzie would come and eat their lunch with us..It was bizarre. Dame Judy Dench didn't..she kept herself very much to herself...although i noticed she loved the occasional ice cream and whenever she wasn't filming she would be mastering the daily crossword in the paper.
Some of the scenes we got to be in were really dramatic & hilarious, I'm not allowed to give away anything that's going to happen but i'm praying that you can't see any of me up close...nobody would be able to stomach the sight of me with no makeup!
Here are a few photos of me & the fam in all our gloriousness...
[Please excuse my hideousness..& yes, you can laugh :)]
My Aunt, Imelda Staunton & Moi. (She was SO lovely)
Mummy dressed up as a posh townsfolk. She also had a nasty cut painted onto her face :O
This is me..looking at the fake snow. This was awesome. They covered the village in snow & it looked so pretty.
Me & Mummy stroking a cow in pj's..yes..a cow in pj's..& yes, she did mess herself. Poor cow!
Me & Aunt with some of the lovely lovely Assistant directors.
Me & some more extras before going on set...waving our muffs in the air..aren't we mature?
It was a barrell of laughs, but also as you can imagine...rather boring at times, being stood on your feet for 13 hours isn't my idea of fun..but we were being paid so all is good & everyone was so lovely. I miss them already.
Also got a bit of inside goss for you...Freddie from skins is apparently an absolute cocky idiot...& i thought he was so fine! damn that.
When i asked Sarah (an Assistant Director who has met too many celebrities to name) said the worst person she has ever worked with was Emma Watson (Hermione Granger) who apparently is the most miserable stuck up girl ever. It doesn't surprise me, as even in the first film the crew were moaning about her. They use her double more than her..how bad is that? Sarah also said the lovliest was Angelina Jolie, & they became really good friends. The press isn't always behind Ange, what with the brad and jen split..but supposedly shes absoloutely lovely. Might have to change my mind about her :)
Look out for the 2 episode Cranford Specials around Christmas guys..you might spot me.
Have any of you been extra's for anything? I'd love to hear your experiences too :)

Preacher as Watchman
1Once again a message came to me from the Lord: 2"Son of man, give your people this message: 'When I bring an army against a country, the people of that land choose one of their own to be a watchman. 3When the watchman sees the enemy coming, he sounds the alarm to warn the people. 4Then if those who hear the alarm refuse to take action, it is their own fault if they die. 5They heard the alarm but ignored it, so the responsibility is theirs. If they had listened to the warning, they could have saved their lives. 6But if the watchman sees the enemy coming and doesn't sound the alarm to warn the people, he is responsible for their captivity. They will die in their sins, but I will hold the watchman responsible for their deaths.'
7"Now, son of man, I am making you a watchman for the people of Israel. Therefore, listen to what I say and warn them for me. 8If I announce that some wicked people are sure to die and you fail to tell them to change their ways, then they will die in their sins, and I will hold you responsible for their deaths. 9But if you warn them to repent and they don't repent, they will die in their sins, but you will have saved yourself.(Ezekiel 33:1-9, NET)
It's a sobering passage that preaching, prophesying, and teaching carries with it an extraordinary amount of weight. Once you lose this perception of just how responsible you are as a message bringer you will often chase after the gods of popularity and acceptability and growth by justifiable means will eventually overextend. Ultimately failure of not only the messenger, but the entire nation is on the horizon without supernatural intervention.
My hope for Regeneration is that I set the bar high for those who share the pulpit with me and those who will follow me in this regard. That not only will we expect change from everyone else, but that we will be willing to see the enemies that arise in our own lives and change first.
Feel free to hold me to that.
Comfort Seekers and Risk Takers Part 2
Neither of these are right or wrong. Depending upon the season of our lives one can definitely be better than the other. The trying issue is determining which of these we should be at this moment.
This is also compounded by several factors. Some take risks in order to acquire more comfort. Some refuse risk in order to maintain or even protect comfort. Some take risk without regard to comfort. Some are motivated by greed. Some are motivated by pride. Some are motivated by God. Some are motivated by guilt and shame. Some are motivated by a moral desire to just do the right thing.
So, the questions with which we are left are:
Is it the right time?
What is my motivation for seeking comfort or for taking risk?
What fears are involved?
When I fail is there room for redemption?
Comfort Seekers and Risk Takers
In this period of my life I have been reflecting on why I am doing what I am doing and whether or not the desires that consume me are worthy of being pursued.
What I have recognized is that I am standing at a threshold. Inside the doorway is a warm fire, a leather recliner, the smell of hot coffee and cinnamon is in the air, Barber's Adagio for strings playing softly in the background and is slightly louder than the murmur of the company of people you love. I'm familiar with all of these and am drawn to these things. I may even long for them at the end of a long day.
On the other side of the doorway is also something I am drawn to and may even long for after a long day, but I am unfamiliar with it because it is only an idea and not a reality. It excites me, motivates me, ignites me to move and will move me…change me…drastically impact the reality I know. All of that is good but I an hindered from stepping across the threshold by the comfort of what I know and by the work that is going to be required if I do.
Work without a guarantee of success. Work that will result in blood, sweat and tears being shed. Work that will be painful emotionally and physically. Work that could destroy the opportunity to experience the comfort of what is inside the threshold.
What I have been trying to do is be a comfort seeking risk taker. What I have now understood is that those two things cannot coexist.

Media category in the OS X file chooser
Aug 7th
Posted by Florian Beer in Mac
Either I've never recognized it before, or Apple published this new feature with their latest OS X update.
There is now a Media category in the standard OS file chooser that lets you choose movies, pictures and music, pulling it straight from the respective iApp's library (iTunes, iPhoto etc.). I think this is a really helpful addition. Thanks Apple for making OS X a bit better again
US Media manipulation
Feb 14th
Posted by Florian Beer in Private
I just watched an hour long documentary called "SPIN" by Brian Springer (read more details about it here). He set up numerous satellite dishes back in the 90ties to watch and record the satellite feeds that the big media companies used to deliver their material from the point where it was shot to their broadcasting headquarters. Those feeds are the unedited versions of the events they where covering and so Brian Springer could see and hear a lot of things that weren't broadcasted later on national television.
This film basically shows us how characters are set up via media channels for the population to believe whatever those characters tell you on your TV. The events of the 1992 election draw a very dark picture about what was said in public and who and what really was behind the scenes.
And that was back in the 90ties just imagine how much more advanced media manipulation techniques are today judging from how far they already where ten years ago.
Seeing this really got me thinking about television in the US again. I've already written about another story concerning this matter a while back (Bush â??planted fake news stories on American TVâ??). How can all the people there sit still when they must know that they are being manipulated in such an obvious way. How can they not stand up and boycott this whole web of lies. Are US citizens really that lazy that they don't care about the truth anymore because it is easier to dwell in a lie?
I can just suggest to everyone to watch this film, it's a real eye opener. I found it on "Chaos TV" in the Podcast Directory of the iTunes Store. It is episode 74 of Chaos TV and the full name there is "CTV074 Spin". Or watch it on Google Video.
So that's my call to all people out there:
Stop watching TV!
Don't just sit back and passively consume made up stories about how your surroundings should look like. Use the power you've got, use the Internet!
Go out and search for information yourself and please don't use any of the big media companies for your research.

Accommodations Process
Contact Disability Resources Services (DRS)
Get in touch with us to request accommodations and/or services.
Meet with a Disability Consultant
At this meeting, you will discuss the ways in which the disability affects your learning and we will determine reasonable accommodations to be provided.
You will provide documentation of the disability. A disability consultant will review the documentation to determine whether it demonstrates the existence of a disability and the possible need for reasonable accommodations.
Receive Accommodations
If the accommodations relate to participation in courses, the disability consultant will write a letter confirming the presence of a disability and stating the approved accommodations. These letters are sent via email to instructors, but you are responsible for discussing the accommodations with your professors as they relate to the specific demands of each course.
If accommodations relate to other areas, such as student life or registration, you and the consultant will develop a plan to make sure the accommodations are put in place.

Churches will be required to pay an astounding sh35, 000 for each marriage that they preside over according to law.
All worship places that are licensed by the state are to be charged the fee that will be collected by the church ministers who have been put in charge of collecting the money.
The law further states that failure to meet with this demand shall see the ministers face criminal charges and shall be imprisoned. According to the director Civil Registration, Ms Eva Mugerwa, the law should already be effective with the ministers already collecting the fee. "We shall soon be knocking at your doors (Churches and other places of worship) to ask for what belongs to Caesar," Ms Mugerwa said.
For previous weddings, the church shall not be charged but will be charged for the weddings that are happening now, according to Ms. Eva. However, the ministers are required to register weddings before the law was enacted for the sake of data collection and storage. It is also to help know how many marriages have been celebrated over the years.
According to Ms Patricia Atim P'odong, Uganda Registration Service Bureau, this law will help in case of contracted marriages in case someone wants to file objections or warning to the intended marriage. Each marriage certificate is issued by the bureau at Shs5,000.
Reacting to the new law during the workshop organized by the bureau, the church ministers were not happy about the new law. "This requirement is part of an old colonial law which is about regulating something that is an inherent right," Apostle Gyagenda Semakula of Victory Christian Center said.
Church or legal marriages are hard to obtain with fewer men wanting to be legally bound with a single woman. With the new law may come the increasing decline of legal marriages in the country.

Dr. Hirzy is painfully boring and it does not help that he teaches a class that no one wants to take. Having said that, his exams are super easy and the lab component of the course is similarly a breeze. An annoying class, but an easy B+ or higher if you keep up with the work.
Prof. Hirzy is extremely kind and intelligent. The study questions are the same or very similar to the exams. Sometimes explains material that is far more complicated that the exams so do not worry. Office hours are really useful
Prof Hirzy is a very intelligent, very kind man, but he has forgotten how to teach. He goes off onto tangents and is not very clear as to the actual material. I have skipped every class except tests, taught myself from the book and homework, and aced the class. He does have very interesting life experiences though (Monsanto, EPA) and loves to share
His class lecture is boring and rushed at the same time. He knows his stuff very well but he usually rants about environmental issues. His tests are straight-up copies of his review sheets but in-class explanations are sometimes vague and other times nonexistent. Quite dull to be honest.
real helpful, a good dude, helps his students achieve stuff in chem. let me strait into 210 without going to 110 because he knew i could cut, test at least in 100 are easy, best chem teacher/professor I've had. can be a bit brusque in class but go to the office hours, he will be helpful
Ddon't go to class and just read the textbook to get the concepts, and go to the SI session to fully understand them. Hirzy isn't that helpful in office hours cause he tends to be trapped in his own world while working on problems instead of making sure you understand. The smartworks is hard, but a group can help. Also the final is optional!
Tips for an easy A: Thoroughly read the textbook, do the sample exam qs and get help from him during office hours. Prof. Hirzy is very knowledgeable and he is always willing to help his students. He may be a little boring in class, but extremely helpful in office hours.
Hirzy was an okay professor. His hand outs before exams were EXTREMELY helpful because they're basically the same problems that will be on the test. A little boring, but it's very easy to miss class. Just make sure to keep up with the readings in the textbook if you want an A.
Hirzy is a sweet guy, who knows a lot and really wants to help. My section had some problems, but I think it had to do with the fact that he had a tragic family death halfway thru the semester. Sit near the front, cuz he talks kinda quietly. The quizzes are straight out of the book, and the exams are just like the practice exams he gives you.
The key to doing well in this class is to do the practice problems (which will prepare you for the quiz on each chapter) and to do the practic exams (which are very similar to the actual exams). Dr. Hirzy is incredibly helpful outside of class though I've heard he can be a bit impatient, I think he appreciates persistence.
Extremely nice and genuine fellow and as stated previously, he is fighting the good fight. He wants the best for his students and he is definitely not out to get you - he wants everyone to do well. He is very fair. If you do all the work he assigns, you'll be in good shape!
1. READ everything in the text CAREFULLY. 2. ask for help during his office hours. If you follow these steps, it is an easy A. I didn't follow these rules since the beginning, so ended up with a B.
Professor Hirzy is a great professor! He may be a little hard to understand during class, but he is incredibly helpful during office hours. He posts sample tests online that are exactly the same as the tests that he gives you...so study off of those. Reading the book is also a huge help.
Dr. Hirzy's lectures may sometimes seem redundant and boring, but if you actually read the textbook and then ask questions in class, he is very helpful. He is also very approachable and helpful during office hours. As long as you ask questions, this class is good and the tests are on the easier of the topics covered during class.
Hirzy is a genuine good guy, fighting the good fight for science. Probably was a legendary teacher when he was about 15 years younger, but age has worn on him (hes about 70) and so he is merely good. Has great stories. Chem 100 is easy to A, Chem 200 less so. Any class above 200 level of his has some great interaction and info.
I would just like that yes, the lectures don't have all that much to do with what might be on the test, and you can do well by just doing well on the tests - BUT if you actually care about learning chemistry-ie-for the MCATs, he will take the time to help you and you can make the class challenging. he's nicer and more helpful than he seems
Only go to class for tests, because it's not worth your while otherwise.
He's extremely easy, doesn't take attandance..just solve the problems that he posts on blackboard...easy A
just go to review sessions before the exam and solve the previous tests that he post on blackboard. you'll get an easy A.
If you are going to go to class, bring your text book and do the homework there, its a much better use of your time. if you study and do the work (and have a basic understanding of chem) you'll get an A

MIDDLETON, Wis. (WKOW) - The Middleton-Cross Plains School Board is paying $300,000 in legal fees after deciding to fire a seventh-grade teacher at Glacier Creek Middle School for viewing porn at school.
Board President Ellen Lindgren says the board hates spending its limited cash on lawyers, but it's doing so because the community supports firing teachers who view porn at the school.
Union leaders tell our media partner, the Wisconsin State Journal the discipline was based on indistinct standards, however they are not defending the teacher's behavior. Union lawyer Willie Haus says the district targeted the teacher, as he was a critic of the school board.

The Bay Area Narcotics Enforcement Team tells WNEM.com that three people have been arrested for their involvement in the sale and delivery of heroin.
The arrests come following an investigation into the sale of heroin on Chippewa Indian Tribal Land in Isabella County.
Detectives say the Isabella County Prosecutor's office is charging the three with delivery and conspiracy to deliver heroin.
The three people, all Mount Pleasant residents, were arraigned on Tuesday on five counts each of delivery of heroin and two counts each of conspiracy to deliver heroin. Authorities said Terrance Peters, 23, had his bond set at $1 million. Marcos Martinez, 33, had his bond set at $500,000. Lastly, Jasmine Monroe, 19, was given a $750,000 bond.
The exact amount of heroin involved was not disclosed by police. All three remain lodged at the Isabella County Jail.

Only two minutes after taking a 1-0 lead, Chicago stikes again with 14:01 left in the first period to double its lead.
Patrick Kane scores his second goal in as many games off a miscommunication between Kings defenders and goaltender Jonathan Quick.
Quick and his defenders thought an errant pass would turn into an icing call, but the officials waved it off.
The puck bounces in front of the crease, where Kane picks it up and patiently waits to fire at an open net, with Quick and Kings defenseman Drew Doughty getting tangled in front of the goal.
The goal was Kane's fourth of the postseason.
With a 2-0 lead, the Blackhawks have outshot the Kings, 7-0, in the first 10 minutes of the game.
And we're off.
Kings center Mike Richards, returning from concussion-like symptons, is not partnered on his usual line with former Flyers teammate Jeff Carter.
Coach Darryl Sutter elects to stick with the line of Tyler Toffoli-Carter-Dustin Penner, which has arguably been the Kings' top line of the series with a combined 10 points.
With less than four minutes into the game, Chicago defenseman Duncan Keith makes his presence known after serving a one-game suspension in Game 4.
Keith took a deep slap shot from just in front of the blue line and snuck it past Kings goalie Jonathan Quick. It was a save the 2012 Conn Smythe Award winner should have saved, but instead the Blackhawks take a 1-0 lead.
Los Angeles is 1-5 when their opponent scores first this postseason.
Defenseman Michael Rozsival picked up the assist.
Just when the Kings needed a little offensive spark, center Mike Richards will return to the starting lineup for Game 5 after missing the last three games.
Richards was out with concussion-like symptoms after taking a hit to the head from Blackhawks defenseman Dave Bolland in Game 1.
The former Flyer came into the Western Conference finals as the team's leading point-getter, with 10 points on two goals and eight assists.
The Times' Lisa Dillman reports the lineup card shows Coach Darryl Sutter inserting Richards and forward Jordan Nolan into the lineup.
According to the report, out of the lineup comes center Brad Richardson and Colin Fraser.

ALBANY, N.Y. - Crews are busy setting up for the 38th annual Fourth of July event at the Empire State Plaza on Wednesday, including the pyro-technics handling the fireworks display.
John Flanagan, the pyro-technician overseeing the fireworks show, says it takes months to prepare the annual display for the Fourth of July celebration. He says it takes about 10,000 firework shells to entertain the crowd for 33 minutes.
Alonzo Fireworks in Mechanicville have been in charge of the show for the past fifteen years. Wednesday they have unloaded the truck, cleaned off the equipment, and hammered away to make sure all mortars are in place to launch the show.
Every year Alonzo's "Explosives Team" says they try to switch things up; the biggest change this year is the firing system, setting off the show electronically from a computer. Flanagan says it will help put on a more precise show.
"In years past we have done it manually with two shooters listening to cues," said Flanagan. "This will be great because with a push of a button you sit back and watch it go."
The New York State Office of General Services announced some other changes this year to have a more "family friendly" event. Outside alcohol beverages, glass containers, or coolers will not be allowed in. Food and alcohol vendors will be on site. Kids' play areas will be on both sides of the concourse. The Family Fun Zone will be smoke and alcohol free and will feature pony rides, face painting, and bounce rides. Live music kicks off on the main stage at 4 p.m.
The fireworks show starts at 9:25 p.m.

text: My name is Joe Siegler and I run "Black Sabbath Online". I have a much longer review of this disc at my site, but I had to crop it down to make it fit within Amazon's 1000 word limit, so if you want to read my full review, hit http://www.black-sabbath.com.What is Black Box? It's a 9 disc collection (8 audio CD's, one DVD) comprising all the of the songs the original Black Sabbath released from 1970-1978.The albums themselves have an unbelievable sound quality never heard in these recordings before. It's not like we have new songs here – these are after all the same songs released before. But they've never been heard like this before. I cannot stress how great these discs sound. I've been listening to Black Sabbath since 1981. I know these songs extremely well – EXTREMELY well. So much so that the slightest change is noticeable. Well, the sound range here is far more powerful than I've ever heard it before. Ever put in an old CD in your player, and it sounds flat, and a newer one you put in has a really rich, vibrant range? That's the kind of thing I'm talking about here. In addition to the songs just sounding more powerful and cleaner, individual instruments are more noticeable here. There's tons of places where I've heard drum fills by Bill Ward that I've never heard before. It's very cool finding bits in songs you've heard God knows how many times over the years. Coupled with the fact that the albums have a sonic power that I can't recall the songs having before make this by far the version to get – even if you already own all these albums.That brings me to another point. The notion that Black Sabbath is just "out for money" by releasing this set without a ton of extras. In running my Black Sabbath site at http://www.black-sabbath.com I see a lot of feedback on various things, and ever since Black Box was originally announced ages ago, the #1 thing I think I've heard is something along the lines of "Where are the rarities? Where are The Rebel, and Song for Jim? What kind of cheap ass set is this without the extras?" No, they're not here. In fact, the only "oddity" songs on this set are "Evil Woman" from the first album, and "Blow on a Jug" from Sabotage. If you're looking to buy this based on the recent trend of other box sets to include rare songs and things like that, you WILL be disappointed. But if you're interested in how the songs SOUND, then my god, this is for you.And that's just the music. There's other stuff here, too. The ninth disc is a DVD which contains what's known as the "Beat Club footage", which comprises four songs. The four songs are "Iron Man", "Paranoid, "Black Sabbath", and the rather loose cover of "Blue Suede Shoes". This footage (well, not Blue Suede Shows) is also used on MTV as "videos" and the like, most of this stuff won't be new to most people, but it's nice to have it here. It does appear to be a bit cleaner than the VHS release of this stuff that happened some time ago.The packaging itself is rather Black. I say that because the box itself is Black, and the writing on the box is also black, so it's not terribly visible when viewed straight on. Inside the box are two smaller boxes, each containing four CD's. Each of those four CD's are the 8 individual Sabbath studio albums with Ozzy. Each is in it's own digipak style packaging – it's not jewel case packaging. On the front and back sides of the individual CD cases are the original front and back cover art that appeared on the albums as they were released ages ago. Inside the digpaks are art that I believe appeared on the original print vinyl sleeves as released originally. So much so that albums that had lyrics on their original vinyl sleeves are reproduced here, too (much to small to read without hurting your eyes). I haven't seen a vinyl print of Sabotage in ages, and it was funny to see the guys backsides again like that. The CD's themselves have the same kind of "black on black" print that the exterior of the box has. The logos on the individual CD's match the lettering used on the original artwork for the albums, a nice touch – it's not standard lettering across all of them. Overall, nice packaging of the albums – no complaints here.Anyway, the biggest "new" item would be the booklet. It's a 77 page hardcover booklet, which is covered in black velvet. Let me say this. When you pick up, don't have your hands dirty. It looks like it'll pick up dirt pretty easily. It's got a very nice feeling in your hands. It's got no writing or lettering on the outside, save for that Sabbath flying angel logo we've seen many times before. There's a few portions to the book. There are two stories of the band, a Sabbath timeline, and finally, some "official" lyrics. This should put to rest some long standing debates over some Sab lyrics. There's much goodness in here.This is a wonderful package, both from the looks to the sounds, to the booklet. Get it. Your ears will thank you.MAKE NO MISTAKE. Black Box is the most definitive version of the original eight albums by Black Sabbath. PERIOD. END OF DISCUSSION.Joe Sieglerhttp://www.black-sabbath.com

I keep meaning to read more Jane Austen. It took me forever to get through Sense and Sensibility, and then my attempt at Mansfield Park just kind of veered off the path.ReplyDelete
My sister-in-law has Emma and I've been wanting to borrow it, but I don't see that heppening any time soon considering it'll take her a while to get through it. She reads too many books at once... LOL Anyway! Happy Reading!ReplyDelete
I've always wanted to read Emma.ReplyDelete
I think it's my favorite Austen tale.
I'm SO jealous. I desperately want a copy of Donut Days.
Happy reading!
Caroline: Emma took me a whole week, but it was most definitely worth it. Have you read Pride and Prejudice? That might be a good place to start.ReplyDelete
Brianne: It was a great novel. Mr. Knightley is INFINITELY better than Mr. Darcy. I hope you get to it soon!
Juju: It's absolutely amazing. Mr. Knightley. Oh my goodness. Donut Days is excellent! I'm devouring it right now (no pun intended).

A suspicious white powder found in small piles along 2nd Avenue North was tested and deemed non-hazardous, Birmingham fire officials said Wednesday morning.
Birmingham Police Lt. Sean Edwards says the substance was flour.
Valerie McLean with the Trak Shak confirms a running group used flour to mark their route Tuesday night. She says this is where the flour came from.
The discovery shut down a block of downtown Birmingham for about three hours.
The Birmingham Fire Department sent 14 units and 45 personnel to the 2200 block of 2nd Ave. North around 9 a.m. to investigate the suspicious substance, discovered in several small piles between 22nd and 23rd streets.
The FBI and Jefferson County Emergency Management Agency also responded to the scene.
Authorities treated the threat as a dangerous chemical, possibly anthrax, but after a hazardous material crew checked the substance, it turned out to be non-toxic, non-dangerous substance.
Birmingham fire battalion chief Tim Love said the substance was not found in any other parts of the city.
"We treat every incident as an active dangerous situation until proven otherwise. That is what the crew trains for. It's one of the cases we prepare for worst and it turned out not to be a dangerous situation," Chief Love said.
Chief Love added that he doesn't believe the white powder was left as a prank, but did not give an explanation for the mysterious piles. Authorities have not said what they believe the substance may be, only that it was not hazardous.
"We don't think it's a prank. Law enforcement is looking into it a little deeper. At this time we have no indication it's a prank at all. Just simply one of those issues substance was located and all safety procedures were taken," Chief Love said.
No one has become ill and no injuries are reported in connection to the suspicious substance.
Chief Love said the incident was excellent live training for his crews. The Birmingham Police Department is now investigating the suspicious substance.

Two devastated families have been in shock since their loved ones were slain in the line of duty.
As Topeka and those families prepare to lay two Topeka police officers to rest, the family members of Corporal David Gogian and Officer Jeff Atherley shared their memories Friday afternoon.
Steve Atherly broke down while remembering his son.
"We lost our son, our only child, but heaven has gained a beautiful soul. We love you, Jeff," his father said. "Jeff was always quick with a smile and we've heard over and over that he could brighten the darkest day with his humor."
The two were killed while responding to a call at a grocery store on Sunday night. A third officer shot back but was but not injured.
Atherly saw his son Sunday before he went to work. He hugged him, told him he loved him and admonished him to be careful because there were bad criminals out there.
He holds the memory of that last hug in his heart.
"I'll be eternally grateful that we got to do that one last time Sunday afternoon," he said.
Gogian's son, Brandon, is an officer with the Topeka Police Department.
"My dad was the most generous man I've ever encountered," Gogian said. "He was always willing to do anything for anyone and never had expectations of anything being done in return."
Gogian said his father will continue to watch over him.
"Dad lived as a hero, died as a protector and will continue to serve as a guardian angel," he said.
A saddened and stunned police force flanked the slain officers' families. The nation's honor flag arrived Friday night at Kansas City International Airport. It will be at the funerals.

Saints stars break into England squad - in sticker album (From Daily Echo)
When news happens, text SDE and your photos or videos to 80360. Or contact us by email and phone.
Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Jay Rodriguez are in the England squad in Topps' World Cup sticker album
Updated 4:06pm Saturday 5th April 2014 in Sport By Simon Carter, Sports Editor
IT was once the craze that could be found in most school playgrounds across Britain.
Swapping football stickers with your friends for that year's Football League album was a regular playtime activity as cries of "got, got, got, got, need" rang out as you showed off your duplicates.
Every four years, there was a double dose of football sticker fun – the World Cup.
With this year's tournament in Brazil not far away now, the 2014 World Cup sticker album has been launched.
Jay Rodriguez will hope Roy Hodgson follows Topps' example
And while a number of Saints players sweat on whether they will make England manager Roy Hodgson's squad for Brazil, the team behind the album have already made up their minds.
Three of Saints' four England possibles have made the cut in Topps' "official England World Cup sticker collection".
Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana and Jay Rodriguez are all in Topps' 33-man England squad.
There's no place for West Ham's Andy Carroll – the man Lambert is up against for a place on the plane to Brazil – and Saints teenager Luke Shaw, pictured left, is also not included.
Luke Shaw has not made it in
There are two other Saints in the 385-strong sticker collection – Japan's Maya Yoshida and Croatia's Dejan Lovren.
But there is no place for ex-Saints striker Dani Osvaldo in Topps' Italy squad, though only 11 players have been selected.
Rod Pearson, marketing director at Topps, believes the stickers can bring families together ahead of this summer's extravaganza.
"Topps is inviting generations of football fans up and down the land to join forces and share precious moments as they show true support for the nation's squad," he said.

KUALA LUMPUR: From next year, Muslims can check the halal content of an imported product in the market via the Halal Verified Engine (HVE) system through the Malaysian Islamic Development Department's (Jakim) website.
Jakim director-general Datuk Othman Mustapha said the system was developed by the department with Dagang Halal Berhad at a cost of RM3.5mil including promotional cost.
"The HVE search system contains halal product data collated by syariah and halal experts which have been approved by Jakim," he told reporters after signing a Memorandum of Agreement with Dagang Halal Berhad to create the HVE in conjunction with the 2012 World Halal Forum on Tuesday.
He said before this, Jakim had created the e-Jakim portal for local halal products and that HVE was for imported goods.
Othman said Jakim would review the categorisation of halal goods by 57 halal certification bodies from 32 countries to ensure the products were really halal for Muslims. - Bernama

March 15, 2012 (Tempe, AZ) Tempe Diablo Stadium, spring training home of the Angels, is a very nice park. It's beautiful, with nearby rock outcrops and trees and such. And it was packed. Gotta give the Angels fans credit. They showed up in force, and even though it was blistering hot, they mostly stayed to the end. Usually after the 7th inning stretch, when the no-names are in, people leave. Not Angels fans.
One odd thing: there are a bunch of bicycle cabs in the area that offer to take you from the parking area to the stadium (I should have asked how much it costs - now I'm curious.) It's not a long walk, so I'm not sure why there are bike cabs there and not at other spring training parks. Maybe it's a Tempe thing.
Anyway, it promised to be a good matchup. Reds ace Johnny Cueto was taking the hill.
For the Halos, it was CJ Wilson.
Unfortunately, the lineup. This being a day game after a night game, I was pretty sure that Dusty would be resting the guys who started the night game. Sure enough, he did. I don't think any of them even made the trip to Tempe.
Zack Cozart bunted in the first.
CJ Wilson misplayed it, and Cozart reached on the error.
He stole second while Heisey was at bat.
Howie Kendrick can't get the tag down in time.
Cozart slides under his glove.
Cozart overslides the base, but gets back before Kendrick can tag him.
Safe! Alas, he was stranded there.
Cueto got off to a rough start. He gave up a triple to the first batter he faced, Erick Aybar.
Aybar slides into third.
A Torii Hunter single would score Aybar, but Cueto ended the inning by picking off Hunter.
Todd Frazier pops it up in the second.
Howard Kendrick makes the catch.
Prompting someone in stands to yell, "DOWN goes Frazieh!"
Denis Phipps doubled in the second.
But like Cozart, he was stranded.
In the second, Frazier's throw drew Miguel Cairo off the bag...
Frazier got an error on the play, and the run later scored in the inning was unearned. Cueto once again got himself out of the inning by picking off a runner at first.
Cueto walked Kendrick in the third, but got Albert Pujols to ground into an inning ending double play.
Phipps doubled again in the fourth, scoring Miguel Cairo, who got on via a single.
Ryan Hanigan hit a lead off single in the fifth.
Brandon Phillips grounded into a force out, and replaced Hanigan on first. He was almost doubled off when Cozart flied out.
But he knocked the ball loose from Pujols.
Heisey flied out to end the inning. Peter Bourjos makes the catch.
Sean Marshall pitched the fifth. He gave up no hits, no runs, and one walk, while striking out two.
Justin's new favorite player, Jeff Francis, pitched the last three innings.
Dusty began swapping out the starters after the fifth. Donald Lutz took over first (that's Howie Kendrick running out the groundout).
Willie Harris tried for a bunt single in the ninth.
Jorge can't field? I guess he Cantu. He threw to first baseman Efren Navarro in time to get Harris.
He's out.
It's all up to Ryan LaMarre.
He flies out to Kole Calhoun, ending the game.
Final score: Angels 3, Reds 1.

Poseidus is a rare elite seahorse which drops the unique epic mount Reins of Poseidus.
He remains a very hard mount to own due to his long respawn rate, said to range from 72-120 hours. However, the mount itself is BoE and has been seen in the AH at ridiculous prices from time to time.
There are five spawn spots, one in Abyssal Depths and four in Shimmering Expanse.
If it wasn't enough that I managed to get my Grey camel from Dormus late last night, I was gob smacked to see Poesidus pop up on my screen today. Before today I had never seen him, not even his corpse. My first thought was he dead or in combat with another player. When I targeted him he was at full health and coming straight for me so I quickly engaged him trying to take a few screenshots before finally killing him. For those wondering, I managed to spot him at this last location. Not surprisingly, he's an easy kill for an 85.
Poseidus has three abilities:
- Bubble Charge – Charge the target in a shower of bubbles, dealing Frost damage.
- Bubblebeam – Shoot bubbles in a cone in front of the caster, dealing Frost damage.
- Seascape – Attempt to escape from combat and regenerate health. Damage taken will remove the heal effect.
I didn't notice any attempt to escape on his part since I killed him so fast but his Bubblebeam can be seen in the first picture.
Unlike the seahorse you get in Vashj'ir, Poseidus may be used in any body of water. In addition to the 300% swimming speed (at Artisan Riding skill), it offers something different to the Sea Turtle fished up from the Northrend fishing pools.
That's two rare mounts in 12 hours!!
I seem to be having the same type of luck as Roshii today :D
Hmm, I wonder if Aeonaxx or Time Lost are up or should I just buy a lottery ticket?

Hi There Cymre,
Thanks you for your post, So I wanna get poseidus and I already got all the addons to tell me when he is nearby. I want to know if there is a spawn timer for him and I mainly want to know where to camp because he has 5 spawn points and i don't got anyone lvl 85 that can really help me with that. So where does poseidus mainly spawn and what is his spawn timer. Thanks for all the help! :D
I look forward to your next post
Thanks @Euphyley & @Navimie :)
@Coolidge – LOL. Ok, maybe not the arms flailing bit but he's right about the other stuff :)
@HayFayFay – Thanks and good luck with yours.
@Ancient – Sometimes I wish I had a GL pill but someone was looking out for me I think.
@DisneyFigurinesFan – I can't say that any one spot will be luckier than another. From my experience I check all 5 each time I'm in the area, maybe staying in each spot a couple of minutes. He may respawn once or twice per server reset generally towards the end of the week so checking from Friday onwards.

Plone 3 Intranets - a decent how to manual for web designers
Posted on onsdag, august 25, 2010 @ kl. 16.53 by david
I recently picked up a book about how to use Plone CMS for small to medium sized businesses.
Web designer and/or Programmer?
By trade I am a seasoned web designer (XHTML, CSS and a little Javascrpt). But sometimes the lines between Designer and Programmer get crossed.
When the HTML output won't work with the design, who is there to help you fix the logic? The programmer.
Many times I have needed help with Python and customizing the Plone main_template to get my layouts to work. I can freely admit the fact that I AM NOT A PROGRAMMER.
I have been working with Plone for 3-4 years now mostly with design. Previously we used Plone as a backend to our basic website customers. This required us to use Zope Page Templates (ZPT) with TAL statements.
TAL is a template language like PHP, ASP or JSP.
<title tal:content="template/title">TITLE SHOWS HERE</title>
We no longer use this custom Plone system. It was too much work to maintain, so we are using Plone as it was intended and I am creating designs/skins using the plone_custom.css file.
Most of our customers are small businesses and the majority are self-employed. Occasionaly we come across a customer that needs to have sharing for documents or daily operations (sales, marketing, service, etc.).
We normally sell Plone CMS as a extremely simple CMS for publishing website content, but it is actually designed for larger organizations with groups of people collaborating on projects.
Our solution here is to setup Plone CMS with all the extra tools needed for a small business to run its own Intranet.
Plone 3 Intranets - a good How To Guide and Reference book
Who is this book for?
I first read the back of the book says, "for anyone who needs to build an intranet ... Even if you don't have previous CMS experience or programming skills"
After reading the entire book, cover to cover, this is NOT necessarily true. Maybe the first few chapters that explain Python, Zope/Plone and installation. If you have created add-ons/plugins to the PHP/MySQL systems like Joomla!, WordPress etc, this may be something you could jump into.
If you are stuck in 1999 (still using tables for layout, and use CSS for text only) this book will be quite a challenge to get started with.
I would re-write the back of the book to say:
For aspiring web designers/programmers or IT people looking to implement a professional CMS + Intranet for buisness use.
CH 2. Getting Started
This chapter starts out all wrong. The first thing to do is install Plone, but it covers the difficult manual method first. This will most likely turn a lot of the non-programmers and non-experienced people away from using Plone, when the Unified Installer will do all the work for you.
Manual install (advanced)
This portion of the book is well covered. The manual method helps you to install everything if you can follow along. I don't see a beginner being able to troubleshoot problems if they occur, unless they are used to commands in the Terminal window.
Unified Installer (for beginners)
Luckily Plone has a Unified Installer that will install: Python Language, Zope Web server and Plone CMS on your local machine or server for you. The installer works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS. This section should have come first to help beginners get started.
The rest of this chapter is enough to scare off anyone not used to a terminal window, but excellent for getting Plone up and running.
CH 3. Managing our Content (for beginners)
Once installed, Plone offers, out-of-the-box, most of the tools needed to setup Users/Groups, Folders, and Publishing/Sharing content. This chapter covers the basics of the Plone interface and how to use it. Excellent resource for first time Plone users.
CH 9. Intranet Add-on Products (for beginners)
The book also covers add-on products for Plone. Both recommending apps/products/projects for Intranet use, but also tips for creating your own add-ons.
Installing, features, and how it works are covered for the selected products. Excellent How To for adding products to Plone.
CH 10. Basic Plone Product Development (advanced)
The book mentions it is for non-programmers, but this chapter is hard to follow for beginners. I would say this chapter is perfect for aspiring programmers looking to extend functionality in Plone.
The chapter is not 100% complete, and should be complemented with other resources both online and other books on the subject.
CH 12. Theming our Intranet (for beginners/advanced)
Since this is where I have most experience with Plone, this chapter was mostly review. I should have had this book as a reference when I started skinning Plone sites.
Towards the end of the chapter, creating your own Theme products and managing the Viewlets sections are maybe a bit advanced for a beginner, but it is a great reference for the proper way to work with Plone themes.
CH 13. Deploying our Intranet (advanced)
This chapter is basically for the IT guys. It deals with the server end of things and more technical How To for the Intranet project. Virtual Servers, Clustering and such went mostly over my head, so I maybe need to suppliment this chapter with more information to know more about these subjects.
The Final Verdict
Since I am not new to Plone, most of the "How To" for Managing our Content, Configuring our Site and Managing Users/Groups redundant, but excellent for reference to new Plone Users. The referral to specific add-ons help find functionality from the hundreds of products available on plone.org.
I learned quite a bit about the internal workings of the Zope/Plone logic. I would highly recommend this book to IT people or aspiring web designers/programmers looking for alternatives to Joomla! or WordPress.
This book is a great start to get familiar with Plone for business use, and also challenging enough to keep you reaching for it for reference afterwards.

Hayato Sakurai will face Nick Diaz on July 21 in a match to decide the first-ever DREAM Welterweight Champion. But before that goes down, "Mach" has some eating to do... American style.
Suki MMA translated the former DEEP and Shooto fighter's blog posts from this week:
** June 16 **
The U.S. is a place I don't have to speak in Japanese, as though I cannot speak in English. I'm here with my teammate, Kondo, this time. I don't have a driver's license now because my license was canceled due to high speed. I had Kondo get an international driver's license and went to rent a car. The reason why he was denied was that no insurance covers a driver who is under 21 years old with an international license. We were very disappointed. I watched the fight of KJ Noons vs Yves Edwards. I trained with KJ at AMC and he won. He defeated Nick Dias [sic], who I was going to face next, by TKO before. He is doing very good now. I went to TGI Fridays for dinner.
** June 17 **
George [Gurgel] [sic] who fought Imanari in Japan gives us a ride. I feel like everything in the U.S. is bigger, including bigger portion of food and people are so open minded and have bigger heart. I stay with Kondo and George and have fun. We eat either meats or sushi everyday. Diet Coke here tastes different than the Japanese one, but I like it.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Christian conservatives must ignore a nationwide effort to suppress their vote and instead must turn out in November to vote for candidates who will support biblical values, pro-family leaders said at an enthusiastic rally in Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 16.
The Stand for the Family rally was sponsored by Focus on the Family Action and held before a near-capacity crowd of approximately 2,700 at Two Rivers Baptist Church that gave the speakers dozens of standing ovations. Previous rallies have taken place in Pittsburgh and Minneapolis.
The rally was held just three weeks before voters in Tennessee and seven other states will go the polls to vote on constitutional marriage amendments. Nationwide, voters will decide which political party controls the House of Representatives and Senate.
This election will be decided by which side gets their base motivated and gets their base out to vote," Richard Land, president of the Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, told the crowd. "That is why the liberal media has abandoned any semblance of objectivity ... to launch an all-out attack on values voters and on the candidates of values voters to seek to suppress our vote.
Focus on the Family founder James Dobson said there is a concerted effort by some to use the Mark Foley scandal to keep Christian conservatives home on Nov. 7, Election Day. But Dobson said such issues as the sanctity of human life and the direction of the Supreme Court are too important for conservatives not to vote.
"What Mark Foley did was unconscionable. It was terrible," Dobson said. "... Thankfully he's gone. But tell me -- now that he's gone, why is it still with us? Why are they still talking about it? Why are they trying to blame somebody for it? It is because they are using that to suppress the values voters."
Dobson said he was told that additional news about "outed gay" Republicans may come out in coming weeks.
"They're dribbling this bad news out so that eventually the values voters will get to the place that they say, 'A pox on both your houses. I'm staying home.' Folks, we cannot afford to do that," Dobson said.
Jerry Sutton, pastor of Two Rivers Baptist, said the stakes in the upcoming election are high.
"We're in a great civil war again today. It's not a war of bullets and guns but a war of ideas and arguments," Sutton said. "And it's every bit as important as the Civil War that our nation fought almost 150 years ago. For us, it's a war against secularists ... who would like to take us back to the immorality of the days of ancient Rome.
"Our goal is to motivate every single believer -- everyone who names the name of Jesus -- to be involved in the political process.... We will not be silent."
Dobson pointed to a headline in The New York Times that read, "Gay Marriage Losing Punch as Ballot Issue." The story asserted that "supporters of same-sex marriage this year are likely to be as mobilized as the opponents." A recent headline on a Reuters story asserted, "'Values' voters fade as factor in U.S. campaign."
"There are these statements that values voters don't care this year and they're going to stay home," Dobson said. "... For two years [liberals have] been livid over what happened in 2004.
"I'm going to cast my vote anyway. Are you?" he said to a shout of "Yes!" from the crowd.
Dobson mentioned five issues that should motivate Christian conservatives to vote: "gay marriage," control of the Supreme Court, the sanctity of human life, the legal battle over religious liberty and the war against Islamic militants.
"I am told by people who know far more about it than I do that there are probably two ... Supreme Court justices who are hanging on until there is a more liberal Senate so that their seat will not be taken by somebody who is conservative," Dobson said. "It's a 5-4 [pro-choice] court right now. One more new justice -- if they are conservative -- will put Roe v. Wade in jeopardy."
Dobson said he has never seen the hatred for conservatives that exists in America today. He said he is "being bludgeoned" by some in the media.
"Why now?" he asked. "... It is that they identify me as one of the people that helped turn out the values voters last time. And they're determined it isn't ever going to happen again."
Land said Christians have a biblical responsibility to vote.
"God ordained the government, and in a country like ours where we have the privilege of determining that we're going to have a government of the people, by the people and for the people, it is a flat-out sin not to vote," Land said. "You need to be registered to vote. You need to be an informed voter, and when you vote, you need to vote your values. ... Your loyalty doesn't belong to any party.... It belongs to God Almighty."
Family Research Council President Tony Perkins asked those in attendance to pray for America 10 minutes each day leading up to the election. He also asked those in attendance to call 10 friends or family members and get them to vote.
Ken Hutcherson, a pro-family leader and the pastor of Antioch Bible Church in Redmond, Wash., said Christians must not be identified with a political party but must vote according to their values.
"I am not a Republican. I am not a Democrat," he said. "I am a righteous man before God who stands for righteousness.... Because we hold righteousness as our goal, [then] ... we have the obligation, the responsibility, the call to make sure unrighteousness is not pushed upon a nation that was founded on God's Word and His principles."
In addition to Tennessee, the other states voting on marriage amendments Nov. 7 are Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, South Carolina, South Dakota, Virginia and Wisconsin. The amendments are aimed at preventing a repeat of what happened in Massachusetts, where the state's highest court issued a ruling legalizing "gay marriage." Massachusetts has no marriage amendment.
