Three classic shooters, C64 style - Time Waster
Zaxxon's crazy pseudo-3d (also referred to as axonometric projection) blew me away. Like Icarus and his wax wings, flying too high or too low caused many untimely ends to my ship.
Gyruss, with its frantic pace and awesome electronic version of Toccata and Fugue in D minor kept me coming back for more. If you don't know the game, it's a tube-style shooter: move your ship in a circular pattern around the bad guys and blast them to space dust. 2 warps to Neptune, baby.
For days when I wasn't feling quite so futuristic, there was 1943. It's addictive, low-fi air-to-air combat at it's best.
Want to rekindle some old memories? Head over to C64s.com, where you can play all three (and tons of others). We've mentioned the site before on DLS, but its vintage goodness is hard to overstate.

Today, the New Jersey Devils held a routine practice in which they scrimmaged and reviewed their powerplay tactics.
Patrik Elias did not practice citing that he felt sore after Tuesday night's game against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center. It was not clear or not whether it is a serious injury or whether he would play in the Devils' Season Opener on Thursday.

The New Jersey Devils also traded RW Krystofer Barch today to the Florida Panthers. The Devils traded Barch and a 2015 7th round pick and received a 2014 6th round pick and C Scott Timmins, a minor leaguer.
The Devils received the 2015 7th round pick in the trade with the St. Louis Blues in which they also acquired Matt D'Agostini.
This trade comes as no surprise as the Devils have been looking to unload a player after the signing of Damien Brunner.

"Why Not Now?
Getting ready for college is a big deal. There are so many questions and choices. "What major should I have?" "What do I want to be when I graduate from college?" "Where are my friends going?" "What school is the right one for me?" The answers to each of these questions are different for everyone, and each future college student needs to make the right choice for himself or herself.
While high school students ponder their choices for the future, the Center for Distance Education in Bible and Ministry at Harding University would like to help now. Harding provides college Bible classes that are relevant to current needs and concerns of juniors and seniors. Classes offered in this program are listed below:
BREL 105 Leadership in the Old Testament (1 credit hour)
BREL 115 Leadership in the New Testament (1 credit hour)
BMIS 280 World Christian (3 credit hours)
PHIL 253 Ethics (3 credit hours
Each of these courses teaches information and skills needed by Christians who want to make an eternal difference in the world today.
Students who take these classes become actual Harding students. The credit they earn is transferable credit from a private Christian university, one that is respected for its academic quality and Christian values. Students who come to Harding for a four-year degree may use their Bible credits toward elective hours in Bible. Whether students choose Harding for their degree program or another university, hours earned from Harding will advance students toward degree pursuits at most colleges and universities. In addition, this Harding experience will advance students to be better Christian servants in their future professions.

While watching the Virginia men's basketball team beat Duke for the ACC championship last month, Dom Starsia couldn't help but relate to the coach on the opposing bench.
"I was watching Krzyzewski in the ACC Tournament. And he died a thousand deaths on that bench, as Virginia was beating them. I remember watching his body language and stuff, you know?" Virginia's men's lacrosse coach recalled Thursday.
"We're all the same. The only thing that matters is beating Bellarmine. Let me beat Bellarmine, and anything else is possible, you know? I can live with anything else. And so, I know it's crazy, that sounds. But that's how we're built."
Starsia's team will try to snap a three-game losing streak when UVa hosts the Knights on Saturday at Klöckner Stadium. The Cavaliers have dropped five of their last seven games since a 6-0 start to the season.
"We've been waiting a while to get another win. We're definitely hungry for it," said junior Owen Van Arsdale. "You almost forget what it's like to get a win, when you go through a time like this in the season. But we experienced the same thing last year. And we know how difficult it is, playing against any team, to come out on top."
Bellarmine comes to Charlottesville at 6-4 on the season, with all four losses coming against ECAC opponents. The Knights have won their last two, but Saturday's match-up with UVa will be their first game in two weeks.
"They probably won't beat us up physically as much as we have the past few weeks," Van Arsdale said. "They are very talented on offense, and pretty good in the cage. So we'll still have our hands full with an opponent. It's just a different style of lacrosse that they play."
"We've just got to play well," said Starsia. "Like I say, if we're going to be the team that we think we can be, we've got to get to it. And we can't give Saturday away. And so playing well is an important objective for us come Saturday against a good team."
A year ago, the Cavaliers snapped a six-game losing streak by beating Bellarmine 12-7 at Klöckner. But that was just seven wins last season for UVa, which had its nine-year string of NCAA Tournament appearances come to an end.
This year, Starsia's team is 8-5 entering Saturday's game, and he's quick to point out that UVa has played the toughest schedule in the country. Following the Bellarmine game, UVa will travel to Pennsylvania for next weekend's ACC Showcase match-up with North Carolina -- then await their fate in this year's NCAA Tournament.
But Starsia says he'll worry about that another day.
"Trying to get this right has created a lot of sleepless nights. And so I'm not getting too far ahead of myself, to be perfectly honest," he said. "I do think that we're going to be playing for a while. And I still think that elusive big fish is still out there for us. Everybody's got the same goal in mind. We've just got to get it done."

The boom in China's economy has not ended centralized government control and restrictions of freedom
Story from Guardian.co.uk
Despite protests from Google and the US Government, China is pushing ahead to limit Internet access on all computers in the country. All computers will be forced to run a program called "Green Dam" that was initially said to filter pornography. It is suspected to be capable of filtering objectionable political commentary.
Google and YouTube have tried to negotiate better access to China but their efforts have been stonewalled by the Chinese Government.
Green Dam is said to impair the security of the computer but China will not be deterred from implementing it.
Google has been negotiating for years with China in a complicated and often frustrating process.

Inca & Gaucho Grill Restaurant Review: Inca & Gaucho Grill celebrates global cultural influences via its Latin American cuisine. Incan trappings and decorative accents along the walls of the colorful dining area set the stage for an extensive menu of grilled dishes and seafood. Start off with one of several regional soups such as the sopa criolla with beef or chicken, noodles and milk, or the parihuela, a hearty blend of fish, squid, shrimp, crab, mussel and clam. Consider as well the home-style salchipapas consisting of deep-fried sliced hot dogs on a bed of fries, or the seafood ceviche. More adventurous palates should go for the lengua a la vinagretta, beef tongue served with potato salad. The seco combinado is a beef stew flavored with cilantro and served with rice and beans; for something more conventional, there's a one-half pollo a la brasa, a char-grilled chicken marinated in spices. Regional wines and a variety of beers pair nicely with the diverse menu.

Writing a review about our stay here at The Sands of Laguna Beach unit A-2. Just letting you know that we had a fun time here. Loved the views of the ocean and liked the fact that we could bring our love (muffin) pomeranian who always travels with us. Does not have a pool and need to let the owner know that carpets need replacing along with needing more cooking pans. Small stuff with exception of the carpeted areas. Price was very resonable might stay here again! Jenny Forehand Alpharetta, Georgia

Imagine a plate piled high with warm chocolate chip cookies, ooey and gooey with melted chips and crunchy with nuts. Your grownup might have helped a little bit, but these beauties are all yours, to share with friends (or eat yourself!) because YOU made them!
I'm a fan of the Moosewood Collective and own a lot of their cookbooks. Last year, I was given another entry to their line, Cooking for Health. I was pleased to see their fresh and easy philosophy of the 1970s had been updated for modern tastes. Never heard of Moosewood? Not everyone has, yet they were named one of 13 most influential restaurants of the 20th century by Bon Appétit magazine, and our own Sammy T's seems to have drawn on them for vegetarian inspiration.
I've been following Heidi Swanson's 101 Cookbooks blog for several years now, and although I doubt I'll ever become a vegetarian, I do turn to her blog often when looking for tasty, healthy recipes.
She started her blog by cooking recipes from her favorite cookbooks, and now she's written several of her own: Cook 1.0: A Fresh Approach to the Vegetarian Kitchen and most recently, Super Natural Cooking, a 2007 James Beard Foundation Book Awards Nominee in the "Healthy Focus" category.
Although many of her recipes use ingredients you might not normally have or be familiar with, most recipes are fairly easy and approachable. Her first chapter, "Build a Natural Food Pantry," helps to break the ice for those of us who might not be familiar with ingredients such as amaranth flour or agave nectar.
Cow friends Minnie and Moo are happy to sip hot cocoa and eat cream puffs until their friends, the turkeys, arrive. They need their help to avoid being a Thanksgiving feast. No sooner do the cows hide them up a tree than the chickens show up... and the pigs... and the other cows.

New guidelines for media reporting on HIV in India
Feature story
New guidelines for media reporting on HIV in India
19 November 2008
Journalists have a responsibility to report on HIV issues with accuracy and sensitivity to avoid stigmatizing people living with HIV and to clarify common misunderstandings about the disease, its prevention and transmission.
Following a court case in India where unbalanced reporting led to discrimination against an HIV positive child, the Press Council of India updated its media guidelines on the coverage of HIV-related news. Surveys show that media training and sensitization leads to relatively more balanced and accurate media reportage on HIV particularly in high-prevalence states.
The guidelines were published on 16 November, India's National Press Day, at a function presided over President of India Pratibha Patil.
"The Press Council of India guidelines are a major step forward in the HIV response and they will set a benchmark for media reporting on the issue," said Mohuya Chowdhary, Senior Editor, NDTV.
"At a time when the Indian media is expanding at a furious pace, these guidelines are very necessary to ensure qualitative and responsible coverage of HIV-related issues," he continued.
How the media cover HIV issues or stories related to AIDS
Knowledge and understanding about the virus, as well as developments in HIV treatment, have undergone a sea change since 1993 when the Press Council guidelines for journalists which were first drawn up. The nature of media has also changed with the rise of electronic media in addition to print.
To assist in the review and update of guidelines to media the Press Council of India approached UNAIDS and civil society working in HIV. Workshops were held in September and October 2008 where experts discussed, debated and formulated revisions to the guidelines. They also agreed that this resource should be translated into as many languages as possible for the benefit of the journalists across India. Speaking at the launch, Justice GN Ray, Chairman of the Press Council of India, thanked UNAIDS for facilitating the process of formulating the new guidelines.
As HIV impacts across society they recommend that instead of concentrating on health reporters alone, people at all levels of a news organization should be trained and sensitized on HIV, especially on appropriate terminology.
Overview of messages covered in "Guidelines on HIV and Media" - The Press Council of India (October 2008)
Be objective, factual and sensitive
The guidelines emphasize that journalists must ensure their story is objective, factual and sensitive, even more so when they are reporting on HIV. This includes highlighting positive stories where appropriate, without underplaying the fact that HIV is a serious issue. Telling the whole story means giving it a human face, and allowing the voices of people living with HIV to be heard.
Accuracy of reporting is critical since important personal and policy decisions may be influenced by media reports and so distortion of facts in any manner is unacceptable. In the context of HIV this means that journalists need to be very careful about the scientific and medical details as well as statistics.
Adopt existing terminology
The guidelines also recommend that journalists and news organizations adopt and widely disseminate existing standardized terminology on reporting on HIV, such as UNAIDS Terminology Guidelines to encourage responsible coverage of the issue.

text: Now before you pounce on me, this isn't a post dissing the way Japanese names sound, or any part of their culture. In fact I think quite the opposite – I've always wanted a Japanese name and a while ago I picked one out for myself: 夜神理在 (やがみ リア). The full name means "God of the night (last name), existing in truth (first name)." The name itself sounds cool, and the meaning is pretty neat too, but how in the heck would you guess how to pronounce it?

Energy forum set for Bennington on March 21By Patrick McArdle
STAFF WRITER | March 14,2013BENNINGTON — The Bennington County Regional Commission is hosting a public forum on Thursday in Bennington to discuss the possibilities for different energy sources in Southern Vermont including wind, solar and hydro-electric.
The forum, for which there is no cost, will include presentations by William Scully, of Carbon Zero, who developed a hydro-electric project in Bennington, and John Guerin, from EOS Ventures, a company that developed a solar project in Pownal. Also making presentations will be Tom Evslin, co-founder of NG Advantage, a Milton company that delivers natural gas, and Adam Sherman from the Biomass Energy Resource Center in Montpelier.
James Sullivan, executive director of the Bennington County Regional Commission, or BCRC, said the forum will look at some emerging energy sources for Bennington County, some of them already in use and others with increasing potential.
"There's certainly been a lot of interest in (energy). Our regional energy plan (for the BCRC) suggests that looking down the road, 20, 30 years in the future that almost inevitably we're going to have to rely to a greater extent on local resources and local generation for energy," Sullivan said.
Some recent developments have increased the interest in some of the energy sources to be discussed at the forum.
For instance, Scully's hydro-electric generation project, located at the former Vermont Tissue mill is very close to getting its final permits while the solar project in Pownal, which is owned by Gestamp Renewables and located at the Southern Vermont Energy Park, is online and another solar project is expected soon near the Bennington transfer station. Biomass heating projects are already in use at Bennington College and Mount Anthony Union middle and high schools.
Sullivan said NG Advantage is not delivering natural gas to Bennington County yet but considering proposals that would extend their deliveries to this area.
Sullivan said he thought it would be useful that some of the presenters will have local experience.
While the forum will look at what's available in the area and the potential they represent for future energy needs, Sullivan said he also expects it will spark some general conversation and interest in energy from renewable or alternative sources.

text: VIDEO: BBC Investigates Muslim 'Trojan Horse' Plot, Students Taught Marital Rape Was OK Print article Send a Tip by Raheem Kassam 25 Apr 2014 post a comment The BBC's Newsnight programme last night presented a piece of investigative journalism into Park View school in Birmingham, one of the schools listed by Birmingham City Council as being under investigation over allegations of a hard line Islamist takeover. The programme noted that concerns have been raised over "discrimination", "prejudice against girls" and "extreme religious views" – though the BBC repeatedly refers to the problem as 'Muslim social conservatism' rather than Islamism, or fundamentalist interpretations of Islam. Children were apparently taught that marital rape was acceptable, with one teacher telling Newsnight, "In a boys sex education lesson a worksheet was given out to them which says a woman has to obey her husband". "The girls were saying to some of the female staff, 'Is that right, when we are married we can't say no?'" Another complaint referred to the fact that creationism and intelligent design were "being taught in a science class by a science teacher" despite it not being on the curriculum. WATCH:


text: HISTORY OF FLIGHTOn January 22, 2009, about 1030 eastern standard time, a Hughes OH-6A, N4191A, was substantially damaged when it impacted the ground after making contact with high tension power lines near Monroe, North Carolina. The helicopter departed Monroe Regional Airport (EQY), Monroe, North Carolina about 1000. The certificated flight instructor received serious injuries and the certificated commercial pilot-rated-passenger was killed. The flight was operated under the provisions of Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time for the local flight and no flight plan was filed.According to employees at the airport, the two pilots were planning on flying the helicopter from EQY to Columbia, South Carolina. Prior to the accident flight their plans had changed and they decided to remain in the local area and practice viewing power lines from the air, while calibrating the global position system (GPS). The helicopter was seen flying over downtown Monroe about 1010 and according to an eyewitness, everything looked and sounded normal. Another eyewitness, who saw the helicopter approximately 3 miles from the accident site, stated that everything sounded normal and he estimated the helicopters altitude as 100 feet above ground level (agl). One eyewitness reported seeing the helicopter impact the power lines. This eyewitness stated that he was outside of his place of business when an employee drew his attention to the helicopter. He looked up, saw the helicopter impact the power lines, and then blue flashes of light. He then heard a boom, and watched the helicopter impact the ground.Phone interviews with numerous witnesses along the helicopter's flight path observed the helicopter at various altitudes, but all reported that the helicopter engine sounded normal. One witness, who lived in close proximity to the accident location, did not see the accident; however, he did hear the helicopter approaching. He could not differentiate which direction it was coming from, followed by a "buzzing" sound which he estimated lasted approximately 20 seconds, a "loud bang," and then heard what sounded like the helicopter impacting the ground. One eyewitness heard the helicopter approaching, and when one of his employees stated that it was "flying too low," he turned and observed it impact the power lines, saw blue flashes of light, heard a boom, and then observed the helicopter descending towards the ground.In a phone interview with the accident pilot, he stated that on the morning of the accident flight he and the pilot-rated-passenger had been planning to practice a "sample mission" while trying to acquire a contract to perform power line observations. During the day prior to the accident, the helicopter was fueled and relocated from its normal hangar to a heated hangar that was acquired just for the evening prior to the accident flight. While relocating the helicopter, the accident pilot observed that the GPS unit was "acting up" and had decided to take it home and work on it. Since the GPS antenna was mounted on the helicopter, he was unable to ascertain if it was working until it was reattached to the helicopter antenna. Approximately 0700 during the morning of the accident date, the "sample mission" had been canceled due to adverse weather conditions at their destination. Approximately 0900, the two pilots elected to remain in the local area and "simulate a mission," which would require them to fly between 75 and 100 feet agl. The pilot stated that due to the work on the GPS the evening prior, the GPS had reverted back to its factory default settings and announced obstacles within the helicopters flight path. The accident pilot, seated in the right front seat, was familiar with the GPS unit and transferred control of the helicopter to the pilot-rated-passenger, who was seated in the left front seat. The pilot attempted to reduce the sensitivity of the visual warning system. The GPS unit was located on the left side of the instrument panel and required the pilot to lean forward and to the left, to the extent of the shoulder harness in order to adjust the unit. While performing adjustments on the unit, the pilot's visibility was restricted due to his head being down to perform the adjustments, and during these adjustments he felt "a violent shaking and a loud noise."Data from the GPS was downloaded at the NTSB Vehicle Recorder Laboratory. Examination of the ground tack of the helicopter, utilizing the last 100 recorded data points, since the GPS time was unable to be validated, revealed that the helicopter was on a southwesterly track paralleling the west side a power line. During the last eight recorded data points, the GPS indicated that the helicopter was in a right turn. The last recorded data point indicated that the helicopter was on a heading of 119 degrees true and the latitude and longitude recording corresponded in the vicinity of the accident location.PERSONNEL INFORMATIONCertificated Flight Instructor The certificated flight instructor, age 35, held a commercial and certificated flight instructor certificate, with a rating for rotorcraft-helicopter. He reported 1,100 total hours of flight experience, including 1,000 hours as pilot in command (PIC). He reported 110 total hours of flight experience in the accident helicopter make and model, including 105 hours as PIC. His most recent flight review was completed on October 25, 2008 and his most recent Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) second-class medical certificate was issued on July 3, 2007.Commercial PilotThe commercial pilot-rated-passenger, age 46, held a commercial pilot certificate, with a rating for rotorcraft-helicopter. His most recent FAA second-class medical certificate was issued on May 21, 2008, at which time he reported 250 total hours of flight experience and 50 total hours of flight experience within the preceding 6 months. HELICOPTER INFORMATIONThe accident helicopter was manufactured in 1967 for the military, and then on March 18, 1997, it was issued an FAA standard airworthiness certificate. On July 10, 2007, the helicopter was registered to the Charlotte Helicopter Flight Academy, which was owned by one of the accident pilots. The helicopter was equipped with an Allison 250-C10D, turbo-shaft engine. The engine data plate stated that the engine was overhauled during May 1994 and at that time had 3,412 total hours of service. The last entry in the maintenance logbooks were dated June 2, 2007 and at that time the helicopter had 5,623.9 total hours in service. According to the maintenance logbook, the last 100-hour inspection was completed on February 20, 2007 and the helicopter had 5,598.6 total hours time in service. A local mechanic informed the FAA that he had performed a 100/300-hour/Annual inspection on the helicopter and engine on June 26, 2008 and at that time the helicopter had 5,660.7 total hours in service. He subsequently produced the checklist he utilized as well as a copy of the logbook entry that should have been in the logbooks.METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATIONThe 1053 weather observation at EQY, 4 miles west-northwest of the accident site, reported winds from 240 degrees at 5 knots, clear skies, 10 miles visibility, temperature 2 degrees C, dew point minus 8 degrees C, and an altimeter setting of 30.17 inches of mercury. WRECKAGE AND IMPACT INFORMATIONThe helicopter was examined by an FAA inspector who responded to the accident site. The helicopter came to rest in an open field and was lying on its left side beneath the overhead high tension power lines. The helicopter's main rotor was separated from the fuselage and was approximately 75 feet away from the main wreckage. One blade was separated from the hub and was located forward of the main wreckage along a tree line at the edge of the open field. The pitch change links on the swash plate were fractured, separated from their respective attach points and exhibited fractures similar to impact damage. The helicopter rested on its left side, and the cockpit, cabin area and aft fuselage, including the tailboom, were damaged by impact forces. The support post for the right side pilot door exhibited marks and a compression bend reducing the occupant's survivability space. Photos taken of the power lines revealed five intact tension power lines and two grounding wires that were located above the intact lines. The grounding wires were severed at a point approximately mid-span between the adjacent poles.MEDICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL INFORMATIONPostmortem examination of the pilot-rated-passenger was conducted by the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. The cause of death was listed as "…blunt force traumatic injuries."The FAA's Civil Aerospace Medical Institute performed forensic toxicology on specimens from the pilot-rated-passenger. The report stated that 0.065 ug/ml Dihydrocodeine was detected in the urine, 0.156 ug/ml Hydrocodone was detected in the urine and 0.016 ug/ml was detected in the blood, and 0.147 ug/ml Hydromorphone was detected in the urine, but not in the blood, and Ibuprofen was detected in the Urine.Medical records maintained on the pilot-rated-passenger by personal health care providers and by a pharmacy documented at least two kidney stones (in April 2006 and June 2007), treatment of high blood pressure since at least March 2007, and treatment for arthritis of the right knee since at least February of 2008. An orthopedic surgeon's note on the day before the accident noted, in part, that this pilot "…does have some grinding that hurts, especially painful up and down stairs. Also, some pain at work. He works as a helicopter pilot. … Inspection of gait reveals a minimal antalgic [painful] gait favoring the right lower extremity. Inspection of his right knee and leg show some moderate quadriceps atrophy. … MRI: … multiple loose bodies within the knee, some moderate arthritic change … some moderate chondromalacia patella. Assessment: Right knee mild osteoarthritis with some patellofemoral chondromalacia. … He is also requesting some more pain medication which was given previously. I spent some time counseling him regarding the long-term use of narcotics for arthritis. He is understanding that we will not be prescribing these long-term; however, he does need to help him sleep after a long night. We have given him a prescription for Vicoprofen [hydrocodone/ibuprofen], a total of 30. He has reassured me that he will not use these long term and that he will definitely not use them before flying a helicopter. …"The pilot-rated-passenger's most recent Application for Airman Medical Certificate, dated May 21, 2008, indicated "No" in response to "Do You Currently Use Any Medication," and to all items under "Medical History," including specifically "High or low blood pressure" and Kidney stone or blood in urine." "Total Pilot Time" was noted as 250 hours "To date" and 50 hours in the "Past 6 months." Height was noted as 75 inches and weight as 235 pounds. All items under "Report of Examination" were noted as "Normal," including "Upper and lower extremities (Strength and range of motion)."ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONDuring a phone interview with a local flight instructor who had instructed both accident pilots, he reported that both were "excellent students." He further remembered that the surviving accident pilot was "extremely cautious with the limits" of the helicopter. He further stated that the pilot-rated-passenger "only wanted to fly" and that on several occasions they flew in a Robinson helicopter and he "always wanted stick time." He further stated that knowing both pilots and the pilot-rated-passenger's willingness to always want to fly and the pilot's willingness to allow others to fly, he felt that "there was no way [pilot] would not have let [pilot-rated-passenger] fly."

All businesses, no matter what size, will need to raise money at some point. A small business owner may be able to dip into his or her personal savings, or friends may be able to lend the needed money. Usually, however, people will have to look to outside sources for financing. Before a bank will lend you money, however, it needs to feel satisfied that your business can handle the debt and continue to flourish. In addition to analyzing your balance sheet and income statement, a lender may want to tailor the loan agreement to customize the financing specifically for your business.
Almost every loan agreement made with a bank will carry some type of covenant, either restrictive or protective in nature. These can be as simple as requiring that the bank be allowed to view your financial information, or as complex as requiring bank approval for all major financial decisions that you make. Understanding the terms of your loan agreement and any covenants that apply is critical for the business owner contemplating financing.
The Loan Covenant
A loan covenant is simply a clause in the lending contract that requires one party (the borrower) to do, or refrain from doing, certain things. A restrictive covenant, for example, may include limitations on what you can do. These limitations often depend, to a great extent, on your company. If the company is a good risk, the limitations will likely be minimal. A higher risk company, on the other hand, will likely have greater limitations. The three principle limitations involve repayment terms, the use of collateral, and periodic reporting. These limitations will generally be detailed in the covenant section of your loan agreement.
Protective covenants, on the other hand, are all actions that you, as the borrower, must agree to. They may include maintaining a minimum level of working capital, carrying adequate insurance, adhering to certain repayment schedules, and supplying the lender with regular financial statements and reports.
Whether restrictive or protective, the loan covenants required by banks are generally associated with the establishment of financial benchmarks and monitoring of your business' performance against those benchmarks. Commercial loan covenants cover a variety of matters, including working capital, cash flow for debt service, debt-to-equity ratios, or dividend payment limitations. Covenants can be "tested" monthly, quarterly, or annually, depending on a variety of factors. Loan agreements and covenants can also be amended from time to time.

turnips and beets
- trev80 Jun 20, 2007 09:15 PM
got some fresh turnip and beets today. Looking for ideas for both....
My favorite thing to do with them is also just about the simplest. I wash them, stem them, split them, and throw them into a pan with olive oil, salt and pepper. Roast them at whatever temperature your other food's cooking at (350's good). Then you can treat the tops like spinach. I like to wilt them and dress them with olive oil, salt and pepper (hmmmm, do you detect a theme here?), and maybe rub the bowl with raw garlic.
Roasted Beet Salad
This is a delightful salad with a medley of flavors. Roasted beets provide an earthy flavor. The apples and jicama add their own flavors and crunchy textures. The oranges give a sweet, tangy taste, offset by the slight sharpness of the Feta cheese. The combined flavors are all enhanced by the addition of lime juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and candied nuts. Makes about 4-5 servings.
2 medium to large size beets, stems and greens removed
2 small to medium oranges, peeled and cut into small wedges
1 cup jicama, peeled and coarsely diced
1 medium to large apple, peeled and coarsely diced
½ cup Feta cheese, coarsely chopped
Juice of ½ lime
1 Tbsp. Balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, coarsely chopped
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1/4 cup + 1 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 cup walnut or pecan pieces
Corn starch or tapioca starch
Candied Nuts
Preheat oven to 300º F. Spread the nuts in a shallow baking pan and place them in the oven for 5 minutes. Meanwhile combine 1/4 cup water, 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 cup sugar in a sauce pan. Over medium heat, heat the sauce pan contents to a simmer until the salt and sugar are dissolved and the liquid begins to thicken. Remove the nuts from the oven and put them into the sauce pan, stirring just until they are all well coated. Remove the nuts from the liquid and place them back on the baking pan. sprinkle the starch over the nuts and stir them around until they are LIGHTLY coated. Put them back into the oven for another 5 minutes. Remove and let them cool.
Roasted Beets
Preheat oven to 400º F. Wrap each beet in aluminum foil. Place them in a shallow pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until the beets are tender. When beets are done roasting, remove from oven and let them cool. Then remove them from the foil. Peel the beets and cut them into small wedges.
In a cup or small bowl, mix together the lime juice, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and 1 tsp. sugar for the dressing. In a salad bowl, toss the other salad ingredients and add the dressing.
(Next time I make this I plan to add about a teaspoon of fresh minced ginger.)
Normally I like roasting turnips and beets, but it seems too hot to turn on the oven in my neck of the woods.
If it is too hot, lately I've been dicing up turnips and throwing them in soups and Indian curries. In fact, just did it last night with a beef curry!
For the beets, if you do pickle them, throw a couple of peeled hard-boiled eggs in the mix. They'll end up awfully purty :)
re: 4Snisl
it looks like roasting in the way to go!
re: 4Snisl
I've seen salads where the peeled raw beets are very thinly sliced. Think that would work only with small tender beets, don' t know if that's what you have. Never tried it myself, just thought I would offer the idea.
Beet Poppy Pasta:
Grate/shred 4 medium or 4 small beets and sautee in butter for about 10 minutes covered. Add toasted poppy seeds and a splash of balsamic and toss with pasta.
Beet Roesti with Rosemary
Mark Bittman (paraphrased)
Makes 4 to 6 servings
• 1 to 1 1/2 pounds beets
• 1 teaspoon coarsely chopped fresh rosemary
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1/4 cup flour
• 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
• Minced parsley or a few rosemary leaves for garnish
Trim and peel the beets; grate them (goes much faster in a food processor) Preheat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Toss the grated beets with rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add about half the flour; toss well, add the rest of the flour, then toss again.
Place the butter in the skillet and heat until it begins to turn nut-brown. Pat the beet mixture into the skillet, and press it down with a spatula to form a round that just about fills the pan. With the heat at medium to medium-high—the pancake should be gently sizzling—cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the bottom of the beet cake is nicely crisp, about 20 minutes.
Slide the cake out onto a plate, top with another plate, invert the two plates, and return the cake to the pan. Continue to cook, until the second side is browned, another 15 minutes or so. Garnish, cut into wedges, and serve hot or at room temperature.
GREAT summer beet salad:
-Roast beets, then peel & slice.
-Combine in bowl (at last minute so everything doesn't turn pink): beet slices, orange/grapefruit supremes, mint/basil, goat cheese
-I topped with an orange oregano vinaigrette, but even just squeezing the orange rinds from the supremes over the salad would be good. Little dressing needed.
re: laurendlewis
I think i'm going to go with the summer salad! that sounds great!!!
re: trev80
Good luck! A month or two ago I had this salad at least 4 times in 2 weeks... yum...
If you make the salad, make sure you use the turnip and beet greens for something. They are really delicious. I usually sautee turnips in a pan with their greens, some bacon or pancetta, shallots and garlic, and deglaze with balsamic vinegar.
Beet risotto is also really good, but it is more of a fall thing when you get the large beets. You grate the beets and add it after the first addition of broth. It comes out with a beautiful deep color.
re: dinnerbell
I love the idea of pink risotto. It must turn out really hubba-hubba hot magenta.
I make a beet pasta too, it's basically melted butter with beets chopped into it, cooked over low heat until tender and then tossed over egg noodles with poppy seeds, liberal amount of grated parmesan cheese, sea salt and fresh ground pepper. It's good hot or room temp.
Turnips are good in frittatas. I recently had to get rid of a lot of beet greens, made a frittata with garlic and the greens finely chopped and I decided to add a couple diced turnips that I had in the back of the fridge. It was surprisingly delicious.
I also think turnips are good sauteed w/ onion or garlic, some pine nuts and add finely chopped mint at the last minute.

Phantasie in C major Op 131 [15'29]
Hyperion is pleased to present a thirteenth volume of the Romantic Violin Concerto. Although frequently featuring virtuoso showpieces by the composer–violinists of the nineteenth century, this series also includes works of great musical interest which for one reason or another have not entered the repertoire. The performance history of all three pieces recorded here is indissolubly linked with the turmoil of Schumann's last years.
Schumann's Violin Concerto in D minor had to wait till 1937 for its premiere and has never become a standard work, but in the hands of Anthony Marwood it sounds remarkable. The Phantasie, by contrast, was lauded at its premiere and performed a number of times by Joachim. The Violin Concerto in A minor was arranged by Schumann from his Cello Concerto of the same opus number and is an important work in its own right.
Marwood's great technique and thoughtful musicianship have made him increasingly an artist to notice, and he performs frequently in Australia and America as well as throughout Europe. Here he is accompanied by Hyperion's 'house band', the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Douglas Boyd.

Inspired by the company of young musiciansthe violinist Joseph Joachim and the composers Albert Dietrich and Johannes Brahmsin 1853 Schumann enjoyed what proved to be an Indian summer: a final creative flowering before his untimely demise. By the end of the year, he had resigned his position as municipal Music Director in Düsseldorf. The following February, after attempting suicide, Schumann asked to be admitted to an asylum outside Bonn, where he remained until his death on 29 July 1856.
Awareness of Schumanns illness cast a long shadow over much of the music from his final years. Unlike other artists, whose late works were perceived as profound or radical (think of Beethoven, Rembrandt, or Shakespeare), Schumanns were considered to show signs of creative weakness. Despite popular images of the mad Romantic genius, genuine mental illness carried social stigma. (Schumann experienced mood swings and hallucinations and may have suffered from bipolar disease; he had also contracted syphilis in his early twenties.) While the executors of Schumanns musical estatehis widow Clara, Brahms and Joachimhave often been criticized for suppressing late works such as those included on this recording, they did so in the belief that they were preserving his reputation. Yet Schumanns works from the 1850s were also different in style from those he had composed the previous decade and what may once have seemed like eccentricities, even failures, can with hindsight be appreciated as innovations.
Joachim had played Beethovens Violin Concerto under Schumanns direction at the Lower Rhine Music Festival in August 1853, and encouraged him to write something in a similar vein (violinists have so few opportunities, besides chamber music, to show off their instruments, Joachim complained). Schumann swiftly produced the Phantasie for violin and orchestra, Op 131, a transcription of his Cello Concerto Op 129, the Violin Concerto, and the third Violin Sonata (the latter growing from the Sonata he, Dietrich and Brahms had composed on Joachims motto F.A.E.Frei aber einsam, or free but lonely). Joachim immediately performed the Phantasie in Düsseldorf, and later in Leipzig and Hannover; none of the remaining pieces received a premiere until long after Schumanns death.
The Phantasie in C major, Op 131 was declared, after its Leipzig performance, to be Schumanns best concert piece. It is cast in one movement, with a gentle A minor introduction which is recalled in the following C major Allegroa thematic cross-reference characteristic of Schumanns music from the 1850s. The soloist mostly elaborates on melodic material laid out by the orchestra, with the exception of the cadenza whichagain, typicallySchumann composed rather than leaving the violinist to improvise. Then, just before the coda, the roles of soloist and orchestra are reversed: as in the first movement of Mendelssohns E minor Violin Concerto, the violins ricochet figure becomes an accompaniment for the orchestral theme. After Schumanns death attitudes towards the Phantasie changed: heard through the filter of his illness, it seemed painted in gloomy colours and, while some conceded that when played well it proved surprisingly effective, it fell out of the repertoire.
The Violin Concerto in A minor, Op 129 is an arrangement by the composer of his Op 129 Cello Concerto, with a straightforward recasting of the solo part. This was the first orchestral work Schumann composed after taking up his post as Music Director in Düsseldorf in September 1850 (the Concerto was completed between 11 and 24 October). The move marked a fresh start for the composer, who had spent the first half of the year mostly composing songs. Now, in response to his new public role, his focus changed to large-scale works: the Cello Concerto was swiftly followed by the Rhenish Symphony No 3, Op 97, and the Overture to Schillers Braut von Messina, Op 100.
After hearing the Concerto played through by the cellist Christian Reimers, Clara praised its Romanticism, verve, freshness and humour; an 1855 review in the Neue Berliner Musikzeitung recognized Schumann as a representative of the so-called new-Romantic school. The works novelty lay in its reconfiguration of the relationship between soloist and orchestra, the formal arrangement of the movements and its adventurous harmonies (particularly in the finale). Soloist and orchestra seem at first to exist in separate spheres: the former reflective and rhapsodic, the latter trying to chivvy the music along by introducing livelier themes. Gradually the orchestra takes up fragments of the soloists melody, especially its opening ascent, the reappearance of which marks the transition between the second and third movements. By the sonata-rondo finale, soloist and orchestra work more closely together, sharing themes, and indicating that Schumann conceived the concerto on symphonic, rather than purely virtuosic, terms.
Despite the high regard in which the Cello Concerto is held today, Schumann found it impossible to arrange a premiere. Correspondence with Frankfurt-based cellist Robert Bockmühl and with Franz Messer, director of the Cäcilienverein, came to nothing: they thought the work too hard to perform, even after Schumann had reduced the tempo of the first movement and altered the cadenza. The Cello Concerto was not heard in public until 1860, when it was played by Ludwig Ebert at the celebrations in Oldenburg for what would have been the composers fiftieth birthday. Schumann had prepared a transcription of the Cello Concerto for violin in 1853, probably in the hope that it would be performed by Joachim. No such event has been recorded, but working on the score did lead Schumann to revise the cello version for publication by Breitkopf und Härtel in 1854.
An early review of the score, by violinist and composer Karl Böhmer, suggested that the Concerto might have been better suited to piano accompaniment. Many critics have questioned Schumanns skills as an orchestrator (indeed, Dmitri Shostakovich re-orchestrated the Cello Concerto in 1963), but comparing the versions for cello and violin reveals how carefully he arranged soloist and orchestraparticularly in the original. There are no substantive differences between the cello and violin versions: the orchestral score remains the same, with the solo line simply transposed up an octave or two. However, the transcription for violin alters the instrumental colours, or timbre, of the work. In the first version, the relatively low register of the cello means its melodies sit in the middle of the orchestral texture; by contrast, the violin stands proud, above the orchestra. The change is particularly evident in the slow movement, where there is a prominent cello accompaniment: in the Cello Concerto, the two lines entwine; in the violin equivalent, high and low voices are divided.
A fair copy of Schumanns transcription of the Cello Concerto, bearing annotations by the composer, was discovered among Joachims papers in 1987, after which an edition was prepared by Joachim Draheim. It was first performed in Cologne that year, by Saschko Gawriloff with the Westfälischen Symphony Orchestra under Walter Gillessen.
As with the Phantasie, Schumann sent the score of the Violin Concerto in D minor, WoO23 (composed between 27 September and 3 October 1853) to Joachim for advice, but this time the violinist was less enthusiastic. While he praised the melody of the slow movement, for the most part he found the solo part unidiomatic (Schumanns extensive use of arpeggiated figures perhaps reflected his recent immersion in the Sonatas and Partitas of J S Bach, for which he had devised piano accompaniments). Joachim later admitted that he thought the music showed signs of exhaustion. It was to be Schumanns last orchestral work.
The Violin Concerto is a grandiose, minor-key counterpart to Beethovens example. It opens with a brooding theme played by full orchestra; the lyrical second subject then makes a brief appearance before the violin enters. The form of this movement and the relationship between soloist and orchestra is much more conventional than that of the Cello Concerto but, again, the second and third movements are connected. Here, though, it is music from the slow movement that reappears in the finale: the syncopated orchestral theme. It is somewhat surprising that Schumann did not choose to recall the soloists melody instead, for it had a habit of turning up in other places: it resembles the opening vocal line of Frühlings Ankunft, Op 79 No 19, the middle section of Vogel as Prophet from Waldszenen, and the Allegro of Norbert Burgmüllers Second Symphony, which Schumann had recently orchestrated. The melody is also strikingly similar to the one he claimed was dictated to him by the spirits of Schubert and Mendelssohn during hallucinations he experienced in February 1854, on which he wrote piano variations (commonly referred to, with some poetic licence, as the Geistervariationen).
Joachim found the finale of the Violin Concerto overly repetitious, a criticism often levelled at Schumanns late music. Occasionally, the impression of repetitiveness resulted from the composer focusing on a limited number of thematic motifs. On other occasions, it indicates an ill-chosen tempo. In the case of the Violin Concerto, until a new edition appeared in the 1980s, performers tended to take the second movement more slowly than the autograph suggested, while pushing the finales polonaise forward.
Despite rehearsing the work with Hannovers Court Orchestra, Joachim never performed the Concerto in public and recommended that it should not be published until one hundred years after Schumanns death (a view with which his fellow-executors of the composers musical estate, Clara and Brahms, concurred). However, in 1933 Joachims great-nieces, the violinists Jelly dArányi and Adila Fachiri, claimed to have received instructions from beyond the grave that they should seek out Schumanns concerto. (On a more prosaic level, they may have been aware that the first movement had been played at the tenth anniversary of the Schumann Gesellschaft in Zwickau three years earlier.) The score was located in the Prussian State Library and, against the wishes of Schumanns daughter Eugenie, was prepared for publication by Schott, with the assistance of composer Paul Hindemith. The Violin Concerto was premiered before Nazi luminaries Robert Ley and Joseph Goebbels on 26 November 1937, played by Georg Kulenkampff and the Berlin Philharmonic, conducted by Karl Böhm. What for decades had been considered a failure was now, for political reasons, heralded as a masterpieceeven as a replacement for Mendelssohns popular Violin Concerto (which was barred from performance because of the composers Jewish roots). Ten days later Yehudi Menuhinwho as a Russian-American Jew had not been allowed to give the premiere in Germanyperformed the concerto with piano accompaniment at New Yorks Carnegie Hall; he subsequently played the full version with the St Louis Symphony Orchestra.
Menuhin recognized Schumanns Violin Concerto as the missing link between Beethoven and Brahms. He claimed it has the same human warmth, caressing softness, bold manly rhythms, the same lovely arabesque treatment of the violin, the same rich and noble themes and harmonies. Schumanns debt to Beethoven can be detected in the way he embeds the solo violin within the orchestra; they work as partners, sharing material. Brahms is forecast in the way Schumann makes motivic connections between movements. We can thus hear these works for violin and orchestra less as marking the end of Schumanns career, than as a bridge between generations.

from the Infinite Consciousness
August 22, 2012: "This day is the first day of the shift into the full human. This day, the human body is now able to embrace its fuller potential. This means physically as well as mentally.
"As you engage your clear energy, you are able to uplevel your physical vibration, thereby releasing hormonal developments in the brain and in the organs of the body. This dispersion of the hormonal activation helps you to cleanse the body of pollutants, which can also help to restore motor skills. Another effect is that brain neurons can now be actively generated.
"These effects are like a magnification of ten over your previous capacities. At first, you don't notice a major change; however, as you allow the body's biological systems to clear of the poor nutrition, and you replenish the nutrients, you will see an increased clarity in your thinking and in your energy level.
"The main deterrent to a clear mind is poor nutrition. Address this and, when you are invoking the higher consciousness, you are able to replenish the body and brain chemistry.
"The human body and brain are now activated to enhance, however the effects are miniscule until the body is purified of the poor nutrition. This is enabled with the help of a cleansing diet over a period of four months. As you gradually let go of the substances that are empty of health, your body and brain begin to regenerate.
"It is then that you can sense the higher capacities. This is all now up to you. If you wish full vitality and resilience, truly this is how you get it."

So you've finished university (phew!), found a new job (lucky you!), and finally found your niche in the workplace. You may have even made a few new friends, or participated in weekly lunch outings with other new coworkers that are your age. Fabulous! It really sounds like you're fitting in and feeling included, which is a difficult thing in itself. And how lucky are you to have like-minded coworkers who are also interested in going to the beach on the weekend, buying tickets to that upcoming music festival, and generally enjoying the freedom that is our early- to mid-twenties (no kids! no responsibility!). You're doing everything right, aren't you… are you?
Well, maybe not. Yes, you're fantastically educated and well-versed in technology, which many of the Gen-Xs may not be. And that means yes, you've certainly got the tools to be extremely productive and efficient at work. What more could you ask? I'm going to be real with you here: a lot more. As in about 30-years-worth-of-projects-and-experience more.
See, the problem with us millennials is that we think we're the bees knees, and that because we know quicker, easier, and more high-tech ways to do things, that that's all there is. But even though our older coworkers may prefer to write out calculations by hand, or file hard copies of their work, they're the ones who've really got it down. Gen Xs didn't have computers and IM and text messaging to learn the tricks of the trade; they only had each other. And because that was the only way to learn and improve (other than good old fashioned practice!), they gained something even more valuable along the way: a network.
Most of us have heard of this 'networking' phenomenon, but if you're like me, you correlate that with an image of some sleazy dude in a three piece suit with more hair gel than Pauly D. What I didn't realize though is that networking isn't synonymous with going to cheesy career fairs and cocktail parties, handing out business cards faster than the auto-deal machine at the casino. Networking happens everywhere: in the lunchroom, at family dinners, I've even had a friend get a job overseas from a conversation on the bus.
Alright, fine, so you can network without the hair gel. But doing it in theory and actually practising it are two different things: where do I start? Well, let's start at work. You might typically spend your free time mingling with your bestie at Starbucks, so start with coffee. I've personally always found 'coffee chats' to be a little intimidating (frankly, I'm a baby), so forget that business for now (and if you don't have to, mad props to you, you gutsy champ). Why not invite some of your Gen X counterparts along for the daily caffeine trek? And along the way, ask them how their weekend was, ask them how long they've worked for the company, and find out where they worked before. Networking isn't about 'who are you, what do you do, and can you get me a job'. Networking is about knowing people, helping them when you see fit, and asking them for help when you need it. People will help you if they know and like you–people aren't going to help a name on a business card that only emails them for favours.
So that's where you start: you start with what (and who) you know. Don't be the narrow minded Gen Y who only sees the value in conversation with her friends. Be the Gen Y who is eager to build relationships with those with experience, industry smarts, and lots of information to share. And share more with others!
The best part about talking to people you already know is that it's a no-pressure situation. Even with my quietest coworkers, I'll just ask them about their lives. Where did you grow up? Why did you move to Vancouver? Where do you want to go from this job you're in now? It's so easy to be that motivated employee who's desperate to get their name out there, and to be 'seen' by senior management, but oftentimes the goldmine of information is sitting a few desks over from you. Not in a corner office, not in the top-floor suite, but in the cubicle with the crappy overhead lighting right next door.
So for those of us who struggle a bit with networking (and I definitely do), don't shun the concept altogether because the thought of it makes you nervous. Practice your skills with those you're already comfortable around, but don't necessarily know all that well, and eventually it will come. The workplace isn't like high school, where you stick with your friends and let time roll by; it's dynamic, it's friendly, and it's full of opportunity. The best part is, the more questions you ask and people you know, the more likely you'll be to find new friends, find new mentors, or find new career paths and opportunities. What's the worst that could happen? And the more preparation and networking you can accomplish now, the more rewarding your career will be. That, my friends, I can promise you.

Narrow your search
Google has released an Android app to help you shorten URLs and provide insight as to who is clicking your links.
Chrome's "origin chip" feature, which hides URLs in the browser's location bar, may be vulnerable to lengthy Web addresses.
Holders of verified Twitter accounts can register for URLs beginning Friday, while nonverified accounts will have to wait until December 23.
The search giant's "Physical Web" project aims to tie together Internet-connected devices using URLs instead of mobile apps.
Because who doesn't want their very own custom Google+ URL?
Previously available just for brands and businesses, the vanity URLs will now be an option for all Google+ users who fit certain minimal criteria.
The president's social media accounts temporarily directed people who clicked on compromised links to a video titled "Syria facing terrorism."
While the world panics, the wheels of capitalism still must turn. The owners of the URL say they've had offers over the years. But clearly not enough.
The search giant has approved about 42 percent of the requests, which have been streaming in since May 29.
The attorney for the celebrities claims the search giant did not "act expeditiously and responsibly to remove the images."
