Composing an Eternal Heritage
Applauded for his talent and quick ability to compose, Rossini's appearance was pleasing and elegant. His face revealed sophistication with a penetrating glance that was both dynamic and arresting. His nose was straight in his oval face with a smile that was both caustic and congenial. A virile attraction exuded from his personality that was fascinating and magnetic. Several anecdotes surround the musical reputation of Rossini. Well-known for his fast compositions, Rossini was supposed to have composed, 'Barbiere', in a very short time as he was late in delivering his masterpiece. Rossini often worked in the comfort of his bedroom, sometimes without shaving which a friend pointed out was very funny when he was composing the 'Barbiere'. Rossini with his quick wit replied that if he did take time to shave, then his opera would never have been completed. Another fascinating facet of Rossini is revealed in his fast and quick delivery of work. As Rossini was composing one day in bed, an Impresario walked in. Without even looking up, Rossini requested him to pick up a sheet of music that had fallen off the bed. As the Impresario picked it up, Rossini gave him another sheet of paper and asked him which one was better. The Impresario, looking confused said that both the sheets of music were almost alike. Rossini replied that it would have taken him the same amount of time to get off the bed to pick up the sheet of paper as it would have taken him to write the same piece of music again!
As quoted by Rossini himself, he was very happy to describe his virtues: here is what he is supposed to have said when he was composing his overtures:
"Wait until the evening before opening night. Nothing primes inspiration more than necessity, whether it be the presence of a copyist waiting for your work or the prodding of an impresario tearing his hair. In my time, all the impresarios of Italy were bald at 30. . . ." "I wrote the overture of Otello in a small room of the Palazzo Barbaja, where the baldest and rudest of directors had shut me in". "I wrote the overture of the Gazza Ladra the day before the opening night under the roof of the Scala Theatre, where I had been imprisoned by the director and secured by four stagehands". "For the Barbiere, I did better: I did not even compose an overture, I just took one already destined for an opera called Elisabetta. Public was very pleased".
His plagiarized libretto, 'Il Barbiere di Siviglia' (1816), taken from Beaumarchais' 'Barbier de Seville' by Sterbini and the same as that of Giovanni Paisiello's 'Barbiere', won him a legacy of popularity in spite of much opposition. Rossini produced more than twenty operas between 1815 and 1823, his dramatic operas being, 'Otello' and 'Guilluame Tell'or William Tell (the overture of which is popularly known for being the theme song for The Lone Ranger), 'Cinderella', 'La Cenerentola', 'Mose in Egitto' with its popular chorus of 'Dal tuo stellato Soglio', 'Semiramide' and 'Zelmira' amongst other memorable and famous compositions. His musical writing comprised of a mannerism which earned him the nickname, "Monsieur Crescendo".
An invitation from Prince Metternich brought him to Verona to "assist in the general re-establishing of harmony". Rossini made friends with prominent personalities such as, Chateaubriand and Madame de Lieven at the opening of the Congress on 20th October, 1822. With his reputation preceding him, Rossini was invited by the manager of the King's Theatre in London. Greeted with enthusiasm by the Parisians on route to England, Rossini was introduced to King George IV after a warm welcome. He received a generous amount of seven thousand pounds at the end of his five month stay in England. Very much in demand, Rossini accepted the post of music director in 1824, of the Theatre Italien in Paris with the income of eight hundred pounds per annum. At the end of this stint, he was awarded the office of Chief Composer to the King and Inspector-General of singing in France with the same income.
The face of opera changed with the production of Rossini's 'Guillaume Tell' as it evolved with the libretto by Etienne Jouy and Hippolyte Bis with the version revised by Armand Marrast. Anxious to be with his father after the death of his mother in 1827, Rossini returned to Bologna in 1829. With the abdication of Charles X and the July Revolution of 1830, Rossini however returned to Paris to complete 'Faust'. 'Stabat Mater was written in 1832, with the rest of the movements completed in 1839, the year that his father passed away. His wife died in 1845, and Rossini married Olympe Pelissier after two years. With years of a swift rise to triumph and years of seclusion opens facets of humility, cynical wit and erratic compositions of Rossini, the legend. Rossini lived in Florence for a while and moved to Paris in 1855. His house in France was famous as the center of artistic people and events. Rossini died at his country house at Passy on November 13th, 1868, and was buried in Pere Lachaise Cemetery, Paris, France.

I recognized my buddy Matti when I was strolling along the beach a few minutes before sunset. He was with his Slovakian girlfriend Diana who I've been drooling at when I first saw her a month ago.

Teen dies sledding on closed ski slope
PINKHAM NOTCH - An 18-year-old Massachusetts man died while sledding on Wildcat Mountain while the ski slopes were closed, according to a New Hampshire Fish and Game Department release.
Joseph Murad, 18, of Hanson, Mass., was found dead by a search party after disappearing during a midnight sledding excursion on the slopes of Wildcat Mountain in Pinkham Notch, the release said.
"The ski slopes of Wildcat Mountain were closed during the time that Mr. Murad's party was on the mountain," the release said. "In addition, these trails are not open to sledding."
The release said Murad and two friends hiked to the mountain's summit Thursday night intending to ride sleds to the bottom. Authorities were called about 3:30 a.m. Friday when his friends were not able to find him, the release said.
Murad's body was found about 8 a.m. and it appears as though injuries he suffered during a crash "were major contributing factors in (Murad's) death," the release said.
City suspends rule on odd/even parking

Old Gonzo doesn't want to trot. At first we thought it was because he didn't like walking behind Chili Bean, my daughter's horse, who apparently is suffering mild gastrointestinal woes. So our cowboy leader moves Gonzo to the front of the line. But still, Gonzo is a reluctant trotter.
My kids and I are near the end of the 1½-mile Wood Duck Trail at the Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary in McKinney. The route meanders in and out of the woods; skirts wetlands where ducks, geese, and egrets commune; and wends past stretches of prairie with gracefully waving grasses. My daughter Susanna stops suddenly to watch a giant swallowtail butterfly flutter down, back up, and out of sight. I smile when a gasp of awe escapes the mouth that had, moments before, complained of being hot, tired, and in need of something—anything—from the gift shop. Meanwhile, Samuel is ahead of us as usual, just around the path's next curve, the back of his head barely visible through the tall grasses. He's been reading the warning signs posted along the trails excitedly, reminding us to "Watch out for copperheads!"—and in the process, likely scaring away this or other examples of native wildlife.
I'll confess that I have never been a big zoo fan—until recently, that is. I blame the small, sad zoos that I visited as a kid, where skinny, world-weary animals paced in tight quarters. Thankfully, matters have changed dramatically since then, as I discovered during a recent trip to Houston.
After he turned 80, it was difficult to get my Pop to leave the house. I found it hard to accept this sea change in the man who had been my travel mentor. But Pop's joie de vivre had been stolen by dementia. I longed to awaken his spirit of discovery, and allow my young son to see his grandfather as the man I remembered.
It all started with a trip gone awry. My mom scheduled a much-anticipated French getaway to Paris with an old friend, and then, late in the game, her friend pulled out. But the romantic, Kir Royale and back-alley bistro dreams had already taken hold—staying home in suburbia was not an acceptable alternative. She needed a plan B fast, and luckily, I knew just what to do.
I grew up in a family devoted to road-trips, but they were not just a vacation thing. Weekends often found us heading out to nowhere in particular, assured that my mother or father would find something of interest to share with us along the way.
In the October 2013 issue of Texas Highways, Babs Rodriguez's account of a fall fishing getaway shows how so many wrongs can make a right. Here's the full story.
We teach our children to share our world by involving them in our interests. For this columnist that meant making travel a keystone in her son's life.
Houston suffers from no shortage of museums, but I've always thought of The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, as the grande dame of them all. It was here that I first marveled at the splendor of European masters. As a mother, I've found that my appreciation for art is magnified when I experience it through the eyes of my children. So on a recent sunny day, I set out with my three young children for an afternoon at the MFAH and its companion sculpture garden to see what this Houston art institution has to offer for a family visit.
Jill Lawless' grade-schooler runs a tight ship. Here's her kid's dream day downtown.
1. Expect the unexpected
Whether traveling alone or with preschool companions, that's one rule campers and parents alike ought to abide. After all, just as there's no accounting for the weather, it's tough to anticipate the moods and desires of a child far from home. Be flexible, but with a quality playbook, you can limit the shocks and squabbles that can turn a dream trip into a nightmare.
We camped near a dry creek bed in Davis Mountains State Park, my daughter Ursula tucked into her junior-sized sleeping bag, pressed against my side for warmth in the cool night. Through the tent flap, I kept an eye on the spinning galaxies as she slept, listening to her sweet breath coming and going. Then, under those bright stars, a strange noise suddenly intruded, a snuffling near the picnic table. Good thing I put those rocks on the cooler, I thought, big suckers weighing five to six pounds apiece. Our food would be safe. Wrong.

Casey Hudson, executive producer on the game, talks about what multiplayer means for the third installment of their massively popular sci-fi epic, including the option for fans to finally get behind classes and races they've encountered in the Mass Effect universe, but have never been able to play.
EA also sent out a press release today outlining their multiplayer plans:
With the Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War system, players will fight for the survival of the galaxy against an ancient alien race known only as, Reapers, in both the single player campaign and through a suite of Mass Effect games and applications. Progress made in each of the components of the system, including the new multiplayer mode, will directly link back to the player's main campaign, helping Commander Shepard rally the forces of the galaxy to eliminate the Reaper threat once and for all. The Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War feature can be activated via the Online Pass code found in every new copy of Mass Effect 3.We'll have more on multiplayer in the not-too-distant future, but for now, watch the developer diary embedded below, or click here for the HD option.

Camp Half Blood
142 8.1 01. The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the O... - Rick Riordan
It doesn't exactly rip off J K Rowling, but it's clearly inspired by it. Percy Jackson is a 12 year old boy who has been in trouble his whole life. One fine day, it is revealed that he's actually a demigod, son of a Greek god and a human woman, and he's already in trouble. Time to step up and be hero... or something like that. Of course, he has two other friends - one boy and one girl, to help him on his quest. Hmm, I sense the author came close to be being sued by Rowling.
The author, Rick Riordan, makes clever use of Greek mythology all through the book, weaving in the characters almost every other chapter. This ploy is also what differentiates the book from the Harry Potter series. It's not so much about magic as it is about adventure and combat. Of course, adventure and combat, especially with real weapons, would seem incongruous with a 12 year old protagonist, but that's a flaw I'm willing to overlook.
Abhi's rating:
15 8.3 02. The Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the O... - Rick Riordan
The further adventures of Percy Jackson as he finds a new friend and tries to rescue an old one. The comparisons to Harry Potter refuse to die down. It's almost like the plot of this series is Harry Potter going to magical summer camp after school ends instead of his Aunt and Uncle. Still, it's a good ride and numerous characters from Greek mythology pop up to keep things interesting. Of course, the bigger story is starting to take shape, one involving a vanquished foe, a young hero and a prophecy. Sound familiar?
Abhi's rating:
13 9 03. The Titan's Curse (Percy Jackson and the Oly... - Rick Riordan
Percy Jackson's best friend Annabeth has been kidnapped and with a little prodding from Aphrodite, he's beginning to realise his deeper feelings for her. Meanwhile, Artemis, goddess of the hunt has also been kidnapped and then forced into a burdensome situation, pun intended. The hunters and the inhabitants of Camp Half Blood join forces and to rescue them both.
Finally, Rick Riordan breaks free of the J K Rowling comparisons with this book and the series acquires an unique identity of it's own. Lots more characters of Greek Mythology pop up on the way, adding to the great number we've already encountered in the first two books. In this third book, Rick Riordan is getting increasingly deft in using them for plot material as well as building up their characters. Combine that with the fast paced story and this book is a very enjoyable read.
Abhi's rating:
95 8.5 04. The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson a... - Rick Riordan
Camp Half Blood, the only place Percy Jackson feels at home is threatened by the presence of a door to the Labyrinth of Crete within it's borders. Their enemies can use the labyrinth to bypass all the magical protections for the camp. Percy follows his friend Annabeth in a quest to find Daedalus, the creator of the labyrinth and safeguard the camp.
As with it's predecessor, The Titan's Curse, this book moves far away from the long shadow of Harry Potter and continues to find it's own identity and style. The author, Rick Riordan, continues to plumb the depths of Greek mythology for characters and locations (all of which have conveniently moved to the US of A, along with the centre of Western civilization), with good effect.
The story is nicely set up for the fifth and final book in the series, The Last Olympian, with Kronos finally back from the dead and the Olympian gods already at war.
Abhi's rating:
94 8.8 05. The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Oly... - Rick Riordan
The Camp Half Blood series comes to an end with this book. Percy Jackson is about to turn 16 and the full words of the great prophecy are revealed to him. Kronos launches his final attack on New York / Mount Olympus. While the gods are occupied fighting the monster Typhon in the mid-west, it's up to Percy Jackson and all his friends at Camp Half Blood to defend Manhattan from Kronos and his minions.
The book brings things to an end without falling into the trap of making things too simple. Rick Riordan might weave his story with battles and adventures but his heart, and consequently the heart of the book, is with themes of home and family. The motivation of all the half-blood heroes, on both sides, ultimately comes down to family as well.
Riordan takes a kitchen sink approach to his continued plundering of Greek mythology in the book. Unlike the previous two books, he doesn't quite have the cohesiveness or novelty here. Instead he pretty much throws in every hero and monster from the rest of the series into this book. I guess it was inevitable at some point, but it it still a wee bit disappointing considering his inventiveness thus far.
All in all, Rick Riordan does a great job over the course of the five books. He keeps things interesting all through. By the third book, he's mastered the art of twisting Greek mythology to the needs of his story. Finally, he closes it out with a sense of purpose in this book.

Lindt Excellence "Chili"April 5th, 2010
I picked up some of these "Lindt Excellence" chili flavor chocolate bars on sale at Wegmans. Man, this stuff is good. The dark chocolate is so smooth, it has no bitter taste at all. The chili gives it an amazing and addictive quality. I'm completely and totally in love.
Yes, it's $2 for a chocolate bar instead of 89 cents or whatever a Hershey bar costs, but what the hell does that matter when this tastes 10 times better? I've been noticing more and more lately just how bad most of the cheaply produced stuff labeled as "chocolate" really is. I guess I blame Hershey's.

Sunday Concert Series
September 21, 2014
A women's vocal ensemble comprised of enthusiastic singers from Waynesville, the SongSpinners was formed in March 2012 after the Haywood Women's Chorus disbanded. This group sings Sweet Adelines style music, as well as traditional three- and four-part women's harmony, with music ranging from sacred titles through Broadway to blues.
The group currently has 14 members. They rehearse weekly and have performed at the Biltmore House, Antler Hill Village at Biltmore, downtown Waynesville, Waynesville Library, and several churches. The SongSpinners are self-directed; there is no one specified director. Among the membership are several women with a history of choral conducting, and all have years of choral membership.
The SongSpinners will be performing at the Waynesville Public Library on September 21 at 3:00 p.m. in the meeting room.
Canton Public Library features Angela Easterling on September 21 at 3:00 p.m. in the meeting room. Ms. Easterling is a country ballad singer/songwriter who brings to her music the sweet cultural heritage of her early years of growing up on a Greer, South Carolina farm, which has been run by her family for seven generations. She is the main artist comprised of a duo/solo performance known as The Beguilers. Ms. Easterling is very popular across the country, but enjoys the mountain life here in WNC.
These concerts are sponsored by Friends of the Library and coordinated and hosted by the Haywood County Arts Council. They are free (donations welcomed) to the public and provide excellent forms of instruction and entertainment.

He was hurt last year - I think he has played safety in the past.
Everybody wants to cut this guy - and if he is still hurt sure - but why don't they start him next to Nelson.
That takes some pressure off trying to draft a starter (see Kirkpartrick, Dre) which doesn't always work out - and gives the Bengals a solid/veteran back end while getting Dre and rookie into the rotation
Also frees up the first rounder for a RT

Hello Strangers!
I just checked to see when my last blog post was and it says I haven't posted since AUGUST 18TH!!! WOW! I'm sort of embarrassed about that. Why have a blog if I'm not going to use it? Meh. Well, I've been swamped with life. Mason is at the age where I am just really trying to keep him alive for five minute stretches of time. He's constantly shoving things in his mouth or trying to leap off of high places. Not to mention trying to fall head first into toilets or other water containing vessels in our home (thanks to older children who leave bathroom doors open constantly). Seventeen months old is just that age where maintaining life is all a momma can hope to accomplish on any given day.
We have also began our school year here at the Kelver Academy and things are going very well. Adisynne is learning so much! I am so proud of her. She is 4 years old and already doing Kindergarten lessons. She is just so eager to learn, learn, learn! I have to tell her when school time is over because she just wants to keep going and going all day long.
I have been quite busy with other business as well. I am watching more kids now so my days is filled with boogers, poop, and messes (and lots of fun, too).
To top it all off I have been persuaded to open an Etsy shop to sell some of my handmade things. I thought it would be a good idea to "advertise" on here since this page is seen by all of you lovely individuals who I know would love nothing more than to buy something from me....right??? :D
Well, if you are one of those individuals who is looking to buy baby and momma related items please stop by my shop and take a look-see every now and again. I just opened it up last night so I am still loading photos and listing items every night. Chances are in the next week its going to look a little different every night.
For the "blog" portion of this post I will talk about an amazing book I've read recently titled "The Happiest Baby on the Block" by Dr. Karp. This book is fantastic for any parent and especially new parents or parents of fussy babies. I thought I was a baby "whiz" two months ago and didn't really need to learn anything else about how to carry or soothe them. I'm pretty good, really. ;) But man-oh-man was I wrong! I turned each page with this wide-eyed and open-mouth expression on my face as I learn new things. Dr. Karp talks about the "5 S's" of soothing a baby. These are not necessarily new ideas, but his presentation of them, the reasons why they work, and the exact way to do each of them is fantastic. It was not only a good read but when I went to put them into practice on my best friend's new sweet (adorable, amazing, precious, lovely, beautiful .... I love her a little bit) baby girl, THEY REALLY WORKED! It was like magic. Swaddle + side hold= instantly happy baby girl. My friend, her husband and I were all awestruck as we watched it transform their sad newborn into a peaceful on-the-verge-of-sleep baby. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is pregnant, anyone who has a new baby, anyone who is ever going to be a parent, anyone who is ever going to be around a baby!! If you think you have nothing more to learn about babies, I'd beg you to go borrow this book from the library and be prepared to be amazed at how much you will learn. Being able to sooth your baby is the best feeling in the world and how frustrating is it when you've literally exhausted all you know to do and nothing is working. I'd give this book a try before you go out and try another option. I know some people have success with gripe water, and lots of people don't. But every baby will benefit from this book and what Dr. Karp teaches, whether they are a fussy baby or not.

Who doesn't love a fab bottle of wine? An informative piece on how to build a basic wine rack to store all of those bottles that didn't get drunk over Christmas. It's a little more difficult than buying one from the store, but it's a lot more fun! Thanks Kit Stone for the great DIY post. We've been getting requests for more "Do It Yourself" here on the blog. If you want more of a blueprint for your project, find one for a Pottery Barn-style rack at Anna White Homemaker. -aa
[dropcap]W[/dropcap]hen you entertain it is good form for your guests to bring something to drink with them. If you invite enough people over to your place over this period you could end it with a lot of excess wine, making this the perfect time to build a place in which you can store them all.
Of course you could go and buy an awesome wine rack from the store, but where is the fun in that? It's time to dust off those tools you got for Christmas ten years and finally put them to some good use. Cheers!
What kind of wine rack do you want to make?
- The first thing you are going to have do is decide exactly what material you want to make your wine rack from.
- Traditional wine racks are usually made from wood but you may want to push out the boat and make something from some special plastic, glass, or aluminium.
- For these purposes we'll be focusing on wood, so decide what kind you want; oak, maple, walnut, or another hardwood are the best options.
Before you start cutting your wood you are going to have decide on where your wine rack is going to go. Is this going to sit on top of a work surface, or will it be something grander that is more like a new piece of kitchen furniture? Once you've made your mind up on that, it's time to start cutting.
What's the best way to begin construction?
So first you need to cut the end pieces and create the rails. Cut two boards about six inches long and twenty inches wide. These are the pieces that are going to become the 4 rails of your structure, where the bottles will rest in a horizontal position.
Once you've done that you will need to cut two more pieces that are 9 inches wide and 11 inches long. These are going to be your end pieces and will hold the rails in place.
Now it can get complicated, but you can do it!
This is where things start to get a little bit tricky as you now need to draw circles on the two largest boards.
Draw four circles that are around 4 inches in diameter and which are at least half an inch apart. Now you need to get a saw that will allow you to make a clean cut on those circles, and don't forget to sand the edges!
Another method is to make diamond shapes rather than circular ones at this point. This can give the final design a little bit more sophistication.
Now what?
Once you've made all of your cuts successfully all you need to do is assemble the wine rack. It is in fact a lot simpler than you might have thought and as long as your cuts have been correct you should have no problems at this point.
For those who struggle to follow written descriptions there's a video below that will show you exactly how to do this in a more simple and visual method!
Going through this process might be a bit more of a struggle than buying a ready-made wine rack from a home goods store on the high end or the supermarket on the low end but when completed it is something that you will be able to feel proud of and which will make those lovely bottles of red taste all the sweeter!

For nearly 60 minutes the St. Louis Blues and Winnipeg Jets played tough, rock 'em-sock 'em hockey. As time expired on the clock, a line brawl erupted between the two teams that caused 100 PIMs to be handed out by the referees. Dustin Byfuglien went after Roman Polak in St. Louis' defensive zone, and eventually just about everyone on the ice tossed the gloves.
Steve Ott spoke to the gathered media after the game, and Norm Sanders of BND.com quoted his comments about the ruckus:
It was a good battle, everybody protecting each other out there. You expect it to be chippy, they're playing for their lives over there and we're obviously playing for our points. The rest of the way it's going to be like this with every team.
The rowdy ending will get a majority of the attention here, but with a victory the Blues broke the 100-point barrier for the sixth time in their history.
With tonight's win, the Blues have 101 points and have eclipsed the 100-point mark for the sixth time in franchise history. #stlblues
— St. Louis Blues (@StLouisBlues) March 18, 2014
It'll be interesting to see if the NHL hands down any further punishments for what went down tonight. At one point Maxim Lapierre had Olli Jokinen pinned to the ice and there were several instances of third-man in as well.

Egypt opposes military intervention in Syria, says new president
Egypt opposes foreign military intervention to stop the civil war in Syria and prefers an inclusive, negotiated settlement, Egypt's new Islamist president, Mohamed Mursi, said today.
"Egypt is committed to pursue the sincere efforts it has been exerting to put an end to the catastrophe in Syria, within an Arab, regional and international framework," Mursi said in his first speech at the U.N. General Assembly.
"One that preserves the unity of this brotherly state, involves all factions of the Syrian people without racial, religious or sectarian discrimination and spares Syria the dangers of foreign military intervention that we oppose."

Elusive Unity
Factionalism and the Limits of Identity Politics in Yucatán, Mexico
by Fernando Armstrong-Fumero
"Armstrong-Fumero has done research in one of the areas most frequented by anthropologists yet he has come up with methodological and theoretical insights that go beyond the large body of publications . . . not only a solid contribution to the ethnographic literature, but to indigenous movements in the Western Hemisphere."
June Nash, City University of New York
"Of a spate of books that have come out in recent years on the intricacies of Maya ethnicity in the Yucatán Peninsula, this work by Smith College anthropologist Armstrong-Fumero, based upon a decade of study, is the most cogent and insightful . . . . A highly readable, very contemporary, important work. Summing up: Essential."
P. R. Sullivan, Choice
In Elusive Unity, Armstrong-Fumero examines early twentieth-century peasant politics and twenty-first-century indigenous politics in the rural Oriente region of Yucatán.
The rural inhabitants of this region have had some of their most important dealings with their nation's government as self-identified "peasants" and "Maya." Using ethnography, oral history, and archival research, Armstrong-Fumero shows how the same body of narrative tropes has defined the local experience of twentieth-century agrarianism and twenty-first-century multiculturalism.
Through these recycled narratives, contemporary multicultural politics have also inherited some ambiguities that were built into its agrarian predecessor. Specifically, local experiences of peasant and indigenous politics are shaped by tensions between the vernacular language of identity and the intense factionalism that often defines the social organization of rural communities. This significant contribution will be of interest to historians, anthropologists, and political scientists studying Latin America and the Maya.

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation released the suspension information for UFC 136. Main event title challenger Gray Maynard was handed the longest suspension following his knockout loss to Frankie Edgar. Maynard duplicated his first round success from the January meeting between the two men by having Edgar on the verge of being finished in the opening frame. By the fourth round it was Edgar that had established control and he landed a series of hard punches that put Maynard down and forced the stoppage.
Maynard is suspended until December 8.
The other suspensions of length worth noting were handed down to Frankie Edgar, Leonard Garcia and Mike Massenzio who all were given no-contact suspensions until November 23. Eric Schafer was suspended until November 8. Almost everyone else on the card was handed the standard 10 day recovery period suspension.

Its been an extremely slow day today. Mine has been especially shitty. I had to cut that $288 check to Raleigh for "texting and driving" that I received a month ago on my way back to Charlotte. The officer asked me what I was doing so I said texting my GF who was lost in charlotte... I didnt think saying that I was blogging on a MD Terps site would get me anywhere in NC State Territory.
Anyways, its been pretty slow in the recruiting world. Not really much news to report. There are a few things that we can discuss that some might not have seen as the posts were deleted yesterday.
Charles Mitchell -- His GF posted a picture of him decked out in UA gear on his way home from his MD visit. Why is this important you may ask.... Well A) its pretty cool that the caption above the picture said #TerpNation wore him out. B) She herself was on campus this past weekend for her own reasons. I cant confirm if she is being recruited for the womens team or if she is just a student. Either way we might have a package deal on our hands.... sounds good to me. Based on the posts last night, it appears that Miami and Wake are other options for her. Nothing on FSU which is a positive, being that some believe Mitchell is a FSU lean.
Cassell JR - His team lost today and he is done w HS ball. Look for his recruitment to ramp up. I personally still believe that he will end up at UCONN.
Wood - He has been MIA since his visit on Sunday. I havent been able to find anything on whether he enjoyed the visit or any other schools involved. Honestly, I expected a verbal to follow his visit this past weekend so I am slightly confused.
Dodd- Im not going to bother posting the extremely disappointing video of his 31 and 30 game on this post. For those that think he can contribute next year, I would suggest searching for it on youtube. This guy is far from NCAA ready. I will stand by my prediction that he doesnt qualify academically and ends up in Prep school. I dont think he ends up every being a Terp.
Twins - No news on an upcoming visit. Extremely disappointed that they were not able to make the UVA game.
Jordan - Well I think we need to make a move one way or the other. We are falling behind to Temple in his recruitment. He is at Temple games weekly... the move to the Big East can do nothing but help his opinion of Temple. Playing in a lackluster bball conference is something we can no longer discredit Temple for. ACC > Big East, but Big East is still top 3/4 in basketball conferences... something new for Temple.
Robinson - nothing new in his recruitment
Jaren Sina - offers have been pooring in left and right. He is further down our list and I dont think at this point MD is seriously involved with him.
Well thats pretty much all I have at this point in time. My prediction for the 2012 and 2013 class (just for fun) is as follows:
2012 : Allen, Layman, Cleare, Mitchell, Wood
2013: Robinson, Etou, & Rashawn Powell (PG).
Jordan - Temple, Twins - Kentucky, Sina- Butler, Tyler Ennis - Syracuse, Meeks - UNC, Anya - Indiana
I think we get drug around by the twins and miss out on really showing Jordan that he is our focal point. Temple wins out and at that point our best option is Powell.

Makino has developed a water-based machine to take advantage of EDM hole drilling technology for faster machining of aerospace parts.
The Electrical Discharge Blades and Vanes (EDBV3) machine uses specially designed 2-axis tool approaches and quick-change tool magazines to rapidly drill holes in blade and vane workpieces for aerospace applications. The EDBV3 uses EDM (electrical discharge machining) technology, in which a rapid discharge of electrical sparks cut metal, to produce holes up to 0.008 in (0.200 mm) in diameter. The machine places the workpiece underwater during automatic drilling operations, which provides numerous benefits. The drill can operate at speeds up to 10 times as rapid as standard drills, while avoiding spills or clutter, all of which ensures higher-precision drilling.
The machine features a 1,000 rpm spindle, which spins the workpieces for the aforementioned multi-angle drill toolpiece approaches. The X access operates in a 14.56 in work envelope, the Y axis at a 10.62 in envelope, and the Z at a 19.68 in envelope. Work pieces as large as 11 pounds can be machined on the standard unit, though an upgrade to a rotary table that can manage 33 pound pieces is available.
The EDBV3 can be used on automatic, lights-out settings, or under the direct supervision and guidance of an operator. (via Frost & Sullivan Technical Insights group.)

Great and simple recipe, made it changing all ingredients for cleaner versions within my needs and it worked wonderfully. For the clean version I used whole wheat flour, egg whites, skim milk, water, coconut oil, stevia and himalayan salt, only 100 cals according to App My Fitness Pal. Excellent idea!
Evana Schmidt10 Aug, 2014
I think I got more than 7 crepes from this recipe. Even the first was perfect and they disappeared as soon as I was finished frying...
Emma_Taylor1 Aug, 2014
Made this on Friday and it was delicious! I think it's the melted butter that makes it so good. I used recipe from the video and made 7 crepes.

This crepe recipe is marvelous. I tried it many a times. All my family members love it so much. Even I got the ingredients from online shopping and got much discount by using code.
Richard Walters26 May, 2014
I changed the recipe and used stone ground whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, stevia instead of sugar and skim milk instead of whole milk, plus all of the other ingredients listed and they came out great. The wife and daughter loved them.

This recipe was great! Just what I needed and can be used for savory or sweet crepes. I used unsweetened Almond Milk and it still turned out beautifully! Whole milk not needed! Going to use these for making Serbian Peroshke :)
Beth198131 Aug, 2013
I didn't have whole milk so I used 2% and added a little vanilla extract to the batter, turned out good!

I only had fat free milk so I did 50% fat free milk and 50% half-and-half and it worked fine. I used a ceramic non-stick skillet and didn't need butter or baking spray except for color. Personally, I put the filling into the crepe while it's in the pan after flipping so that the nutella, PB, or cheese can melt a bit. Very easy -- no special crepe flipping skills required.
Belahn2 Aug, 2013
I did exactly as it said, and the recipe worked perfectly. I love flipping them over with my hands, and that really is the easiest way. When I tried it with a spatula, the crepe broke. I made savory crepes with eggs, bacon and cheese and dessert crepes with nutella and cherries and both were wonderful.
Barbara Price9 Jun, 2013
Consider using an 8" cast iron pan - the crepe is a perfect size for desserts or filled with jam. Use a 1/4 cup measure and this batch will yield 12 - 13 crepes.
Barbara Price9 Jun, 2013
If you have time, make the full batch. These are perfectly fin made ahead and they freeze well. Have a large sheet of parchment or waxed paper nearby, set the crepe to cool on the paper. Stack them once they have cooled. You can - but you don't need to - place a layer of waxed paper between each crepe before slipping the stack into a freezer bag. To use, defrost the stack still sealed in the bag. Warm individually in a skillet. Works well as a gluten-free recipe.
jayajha28 Oct, 2012
Works Perfectly. I halved the recipe because I didn't want so many. But made no other changes and got it right in one go. We had some delicious peanut-butter and chocolate crepe for an indulgent Sunday morning breakfast :)

HistoryHow we started
In 1969 Haji Mohammad Ali setup the business in Saddar Market area surrounded by a number of educational institutions.
Biryani was a popular dish for the masses as the area was deprived of a proper food supplier. It was an ideal time and place to start selling this popular dish.
This prompted Haji Sahib to test the market by selling Biryani.
The Biryani was prepared by Haji Mohammad Ali and his family members at home from home made spices and recipe.
It was a small dhaaba with a bamboo roof supported by wooden pillars with waiting staff comprised of two elder sons serving with limited seating capacity.
Started with one tumbler (Deg) of Biryani serving about 40 people per day.
The outlet was surrounded by various educational institutions i.e. St' Joseph, St' Patrick's, St' Paul's and various Government Schools.
The business was named Café Student;
To attract students of the proximity
Economical food for the market

MONTEGO BAY, St James - Councillors from both sides of the political divide at the St James Parish Council are demanding that the transport and works ministry resume work on a number of stalled projects in the parish there were being undertaken under the controversial multi -billion dollar Jamaica Development Infrastruce Pogramme (JDIP).
"We need answers; we need to know when the work will resume because the situation is unbearable," Michael Troupe, the deputy mayor and councillor for the Granville Division (PNP) told last Thursday's regular monthly sitting of the council.
Work started more than a year ago on 12 road sections in the parish under JDIP at a cost of roughly $1.5 billion. The projects were expected to be completed within a year.
But the programme — funded mainly by the Chinese government — later ran into difficulties, resulting in its suspension in December.
The suspension left all the projects in the parish of St James incomplete.
These include the:
* Fairfield to Point — being done at a cost of $385 million — 45 per cent complete;
*Spring Mount to Sunderland-- being done at a cost of just over $72 million — 30 per cent complete;
*Rosemount Crescent — being undertaken at a cost of $33million — 45 per cent complete;
* Palmyra to Cornwall — being undertaken at a cost of $54.5 million — 85 per cent complete;
* King Street to Green Pond — being done at a cost of $147.7 million — 50 per cent complete and,
* Granville to Retirement road — being done at a cost of $164.5 million — 65 per cent complete.
Troupe in calling for the resumption of work on the Granville to Retirement road — which is located in his division — argued last Thursday that the unfinished project is having a negative impact on commerce in the area.
" There is a severe dust nuisance in Granville due to the unfinished work. Schools are being affected; a day care centre has had to be closed and a number of business places are badly affected," the veteran councillor charged.
Troupe's colleague Sylvan Reid (PNP) also complained bitterly about the terrible dust nuisance which he said is affecting residents in his division due to the stalled King Street to Green Pond project.
The situation is unbearable. Sooner or later we might have to stay in our homes because of the dust," said the first- time councillor, as he urged the local authority to use its influence to get the rehabilitation works restarted.
As part of the programme, the St James Parish Council contributed roughly $25 million, which represented 50 per cent of its Parochial Revenue Fund over a six month period.
At that time councillors, as well as residents who were experiencing poor road conditions expressed hope that the JPID initiative would bring some relief.
Councillor for the Anchovy Division Homer Davis (JLP), also expressed disgust at the long time it was taking to resume work on the projects in St James.
" We as a council have contributed huge sums to the programme and so we believe that we are being short changed," he emphasised.
He noted that the roads have been deterioration rapidly and will cost significantly more to finish because of the delay in completing the projects.
" The longer they wait to resume work on the projects the more it will cost the taxpayers of this country," he stressed. When the work came to a halt last year some of the projects were 65 per cent complete, but now those same roads are about 20 per cent of what they were at that time, and with the rainy season upon us now they are going to get even worse," the councillor explained.
He noted that none of the St James roads were included among the four JDIP projects that are scheduled to be restarted this month.
Meanwhile, several motorists have complained to the Observer West about the poor state of roads that were being done under the multi- billion dollar project.
" The road leading into Cornwall Courts is a national disgrace. It is riddled with pot holes and is a dust bowl," said Gary Brown, who said he is a taxi- operator.
According to Brown, a number of taxi operators have ceased to ply the once popular Cornwall Courts to downtown Montego Bay route due to the worsening road conditions.
But Manager of Communication and Customer Services at the NWA, Stephen Shaw told the Observer West yesterday that steps are being taken to recommence the majority of projects under JDIP in short order.
" A technical assessment has been done on all of the projects and a report is now being prepared," he said, adding that on completion it will be sent to the ministry of transport and works for action.

The city of Norco will not bill a homeowner for staff or equipment that participated in a June 9 rescue of a show horse that fell in a hole in the homeowner's backyard.
City Manager Beth Groves said an animal control officer and public works employee who were already on that Saturday participated in a rescue, as did a second public works employee who was called in who was not scheduled to work.
Groves explained that because Cal Fire said the employees and backhoe were needed for an emergency, that the homeowner would not be billed. Groves said the city does not have a policy regarding billing homeowners in such a situation.
The operation, in the 3600 block of Temescal Avenue, took 30 rescuers about three and a half hours to complete.

NICE's guidance on coblation tonsillectomy has now been superceded. Please go to www.nice.org.uk/ipg150 to view the full guidance on electrosurgery (diathermy and coblation) for tonsillectomy issued to the NHS in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
This procedure is used to treat recurrent or chronic tonsillar infection, tonsillar hypertrophy leading to respiratory symptoms or airway obstruction, peritonsillar abscess and recurrent middle ear infection where tonsillar hypertrophy is believed to be an exacerbating factor. Life-threatening complications of these conditions are rare and the main aim of surgery is to relieve symptoms.
About 45,000 people had a tonsillectomy in 2000/2001 in England. About 60% of procedures were carried out in children under the age of 15 (Source: Department of Health Hospital Episode Statistics 2000/2001, data unadjusted for missing or incomplete data).
The technique employs a bipolar probe to generate a radiofrequency electrical current . This produces a flow of sodium ions, which destroys surrounding tissue. The probe is used to dissect out the tonsil while cauterising any blood vessels, which may be identified with an operating microscope.
Coblation probes heat surrounding tissues less than standard diathermy probes (operating temperature is 60ºC with coblation v >100ºC with standard diathermy).
OPCS4.6 Code(s)
F34.7 Bilateral coblation tonsillectomy
Note: Use a supplementary code for concurrent excision of adenoid (E20.1)
The NHS Classifications Service of NHS Connecting for Health is the central definitive source for clinical coding guidance and determines the coding standards associated with the classifications (OPCS-4 and ICD-10) to be used across the NHS. The NHS Classifications Service and NICE work collaboratively to ensure the most appropriate classification codes are provided. www.connectingforhealth.co.uk/clinicalcoding

Swedish Contributes to New Treatment Option for Multiple Sclerosis
On September 12, 2012, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved teriflunomide for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). Teriflunomide (AUBAGIO) is a once-daily pill for the treatment of relapsing forms of MS. Led by Dr. Lily Jung Henson, the Swedish Neuroscience Institute was among several clinical sites that tested the drug. Results of the research showed that teriflunomide can lessen MS disease activity. Specifically, it behaves similarly to injectable therapies by slowing MS relapse frequency, the rate of disability and MRI activity.
The safety profile, however, is more challenging than ....

Swedish Set to Open State-of-the-Art Multiple Sclerosis Center; New Facility Has Been Under Development for Several Years and Largely Funded Through Philanthropy
SEATTLE – April 6, 2012 – Swedish Neuroscience Institute (SNI) is set to open its new MS Center to patients. Carefully designed for easy accessibility and to promote the well-being of people with MS, the new 11,700-square-foot center gives SNI the ability to consolidate all of its MS services into one facility. An additional 1,500-square-feet of outside therapy terrace will provide a safe environment for patients to work with a therapist on improving their gait over different terrain.
The new center also enables scientists, researchers, physicians and patients to work collaboratively toward new treatment options for those diagnosed with MS. In a move that further establishes Swedish's neuroscience program as a leader in the region, the MS Center at Swedish is the largest, most comprehensive facility of its kind on the West Coast and one of only a handful in the country.
What you should know about Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
You hear the diagnosis multiple sclerosis (MS) and your world stops. You don't know what to think, who to tell, or what to do about your future.
In this video, four people living with MS tell their stories:
But even if you aren't diagnosed with MS, here are some things you should know:
Sexual Dysfunction in Multiple Sclerosis
Although Inga is quite able bodied, she is having sexual problems. Sexual dysfunction, which may occur early or late in the course of MS, does not always correlate to the degree of physical disability. Often it is under-recognized and goes untreated. It is present in up to 90 percent of men and in nearly as many women. In women, the most common problems are low libido and altered genital sensation. For men, the major problem is erectile dysfunction.
Sexual dysfunction can be a direct result of demyelination in the central nervous system. Secondary changes are related to poor bladder control or muscle weakness, and psychological, social or cultural issues that interfere with sexual feelings or responses. Examples of the latter include alterations in body image and low self esteem.
Regardless of the cause, sexual dysfunction can adversely affect quality of life and contribute to additional problems.

McCain Camp Unveils Palin 'Truth Squad'
Tuesday, September 09, 2008 at 5:44 pm
The McCain campaign announced today that it has assembled a new, crack team of rapid responders too counter false information — presumably that not being deliberately spread by the campaign itself — about Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on the Internet and in the media.
Dubbed "The Palin Truth Squad," the mostly-female team consists of dozens of current and former Republican public officials, former Palin staffers and at least one "lifelong friend" of the governor.
From the campaign's press release:
With today's Wall Street Journal report that pro-Obama Democrats have "airdropped a mini-army of 30 lawyers, investigators and opposition researchers into Anchorage" to dig for dirt on our vice presidential nominee, the McCain-Palin campaign today launched the Palin Truth Squad to counter recent attacks on Governor Sarah Palin, her family, her friends and her record of accomplishment. The Palin Truth Squad will set the record straight against Internet and liberal smears of Governor Palin…
In the event of false attacks, rumors and smears against Governor Palin, the Palin Truth Squad will issue alerts and statements to voters and the media to set the record straight. Additionally, the Truth Squad will be available to respond to inquiries from the media.
It's refreshing to see the McCain campaign is so concerned with ensuring the public has access to the truth that it is willing to create a team expressly for that purpose — and not just another propaganda office with an Orwellian name.

Are we certain that it won't be a HIT SQUAD? Isn't Palin, this "gutsy pit bull" able to fend for herself? Hasn't she heard some of the questions before? And just how deep are they willing to dig to defend her before hitting something they can't defend? She's supposedly an intelligent adult, the governor of a state, someone who's "electrified" the Republican Party, but she has to be hidden from the major media for a while and now has to have a whole group of people fending off critics (sorry, I mean the Internet and liberal smears – BTW, does that mean that the Internet isn't liberal or liberals don't use the Internet?).
This woman has a lot of excess baggage. She is NOT Hillary Clinton. She is "smart" but not intelligent. As far as the "vetting" process was concerned, McCain picked her too quickly and she accepted too quickly. In the past, VPs were picked for how many votes they could bring in. McCain just looked at the number of possible votes and not the person, not the professional. On her part, Palin was so awed by the possibility of becoming VP, she didn't care enough to quickly and thoroughly cover her ass.
On a personal note: If I hear the phrase "thanks, but no thanks" I'm going to vomit.

Lest, we forget, there would have been no need for a Surge if Bush & Co. had not taken the U.S. into a Phony & Pretend War on Terrorism while the Real War on Terrorism in Afghanistan where Bin Ladin lived, was ignored! And if we do not Wise up this might happen in the future!
In a cleverly pre-emptive strike, McCain is falsely accusing Obama of wanting to teach children sex education because they knew Newsweek will be soon coming out with an article on Sarah Palin! "Judge Warned Palin About Emotional Child Abuse!"

KFIX Rock News: British Tabloid Apologizes To Journey Guitarist
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) – Journey guitarist Neal Schon has accepted an apology from Britain's Daily Mail who wrongfully accused him of being a deadbeat dad.
The Daily Mail ran a story in February based on a blog by Judy Kozan, Schon's former mother-in-law.
The story falsely claimed Schon neglected his ex-wife and two children, when in reality a judge had found Schon met all his obligations.
The paper has apologized and will pay Schon unspecified damages and legal costs.
Last month, Schon had filed a lawsuit against Kozan, accusing her of harassment.

I've been noticing (as has everyone else) that most threads turn to talking about Dalton. I mean, I went to a Bdubs to watch the game yesterday and the host who took us to the table was a redhead and the server we had was named Tony Dalton. It's safe to say everyone has Dalton on the brain. Let's attempt to change that here. I have a couple topics that I think are worth discussing that have nothing to do with our red-headed friend.
1. Choose One Player- If you had to choose one player from the Bengals current roster to start a new team, who would it be and why?
2. Offensive Line Lineup- Given the current healthy offensive linemen, what would your roster look like for the remainder of the season?
3. Rate AJ Green- On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate AJ Green's season so far?
4. Favorite Player- Who is your favorite player (this doesn't mean they have to even be a starter) and why?
5. Last Few Seasons- How have these past few seasons shaped you as a fan?
Make sure to leave the headings of each question when responding so we know what the question is. Thanks and Who-Dey!
