Next book please . could not put it down! i recomend you read it
Cameron hits you like a real person, someone to relate to. This book is so good and I would recommend it to nearly everyone.
This book is fantastic with one caveat. I finished it and i wanted the story to continue!
I wanted to like Cameron Post (after all, I was a young lesbian once, too), but she is so self-absorbed that I couldn't. That she spends most of her free time (at home and at Promise) stoned or drunk didn't help.
Totally fantastic! I loved pretty much all the characters, even the ones that frustrated me (Ruth, mostly, but Coley too). Really satisfying read.
It's beautiful, touching, and as soon as I finished it I read it again. It's so real, so true, and the first LGBT book for teens that I connected to. Amazing.
What a standout book for this genre. Recently I have of found that YA books read like they are written by an average teenager, rather than being about teenagers. This book was very different: exceptional writing, great plot and well developed characters. The 90's teenage experience was captured perfectly, yet the book is relevant for today's teen. I'm left hoping for a follow up book to find out what becomes of Jane, Adam and Cam.
This book was great. The story is all about Cameron, a small town girl, growing into her sexuality as a lesbian. It is a really great portrayal - from the first kiss, to the first straight-girl crush and beyond. The details of the story are very real. The one thing I would change was the length of the final section, which drags on a bit.
A wonderfully written and excellent portrayal of youth discovery and angst. A must read for any themed read for senior students on sexuality and a terrific insight for all of us. So wonderful to have a honest portrayal of a teenage girl with all the depth, breadth and chaos that so frequently happens. A tender and heart felt description of torn emotion, confusion and certainty all at the same time. At all times a positive depiction of same- sex attraction, experimentation and outcomes with an interesting twist as a small American town responds. Highly recommended.
"The day after Cameron Post kisses a girl for the first time, her parents die in a car crash. After their funeral, Cam is forced to move in with her ultra-religious aunt Ruth and her well-intentioned but hopelessly old-fashioned grandmother. It isn't easy growing up gay in a small town like Miles City, Montana, and several years later when Cam's first big love affair (with a girl who attends her family's church) gets exposed, Cam's aunt ships her off to a conversion therapy program to "cure" her of being lesbian. Vividly describing both early-1990s rural Montana and its people, this "sophisticated read for teens and adults alike" (Kirkus Reviews) unfolds Cam's nuanced, character-centered story at an unhurried pace - and fans of emotionally intense, multilayered novels will savor every page."

Team news for Saturday's League Two clash between Chesterfield and Bury at the Proact Stadium.
Sam Hird and Ian Evatt are suspended for Chesterfield as they prepare for their first game of 2014 against Bury.
Both players' one-match suspensions have been carried forward to the visit of the Shakers after the games at Northampton and Cheltenham were postponed because of waterlogged pitches. In their absence, Liam Cooper and Matty Brown will form the Spireites' central-defensive partnership for the first time in a competitive fixture.
The postponed games have provided time for the likes of Marc Richards, Gary Roberts (both hamstring), Sam Morsy (knee) and Jimmy Ryan (shoulder) to recover from injuries, leaving manager Paul Cook with a fully-fit squad.
Gary McSheffrey, approaching the end of his short-term contract and allowed to feature for Scunthorpe this week in a reserve-team fixture, will not be involved but new signing Dan Gardner is expected to make his debut from the bench following his arrival from FC Halifax.
David Flitcroft's options have been swelled at Bury ahead of the game with Chesterfield.
Striker Daniel Nardiello, with five goals already during his stay at the JD Stadium, has extended his loan for the rest of the season while new signing Pablo Mills could make his Shakers debut and midfielder Tom Soares (hamstring) is nearing a return.
Tom Pratt left the club at the start of the calendar year and more could follow with William Edjenguele being frozen out of the squad recently.
Flitcroft guided his team to back-to-back wins and has used the mini-break in the intervening period to take his team to St George's Park.

The only way you will know is to get on one and ride.I am a Honda guy but Suzuki makes some great rides.If Honda would make a XR650 R motard life would be great.
Welcome .
I am anxious to Buy my Suzuki DRZ 400SM. I am riding a Gixxer 750 right now but it keeps getting me in trouble. I keep reading that this DRZ 400SM is a heavy pig, its too expensive, and i will be disapointed
I want a Street Legal SM with electric start, headlight, tailight, blinkers, tag holder etc. I will be riding on many mountain roads and back roads. I am still considering waiting one more year for honda or someone to make a Factory Street Legal SM.
Is the DRZ really a bad buy in this case?

It's a lot easier to do stupid stuff on the SM than it is on a regular sportbike....the SM just asks for it. Riding in areas you shouldn't be riding, jumping off of stuff, in addition to the wheelies and speeding and whatever else is already getting you into trouble on the gix.Originally Posted by imprezawd
You may want to rethink your motives!
I think that's a good rationale ... its one reason I got my DRZ SM, out on the road its a lot harder to do mega warp speeds that will get you thrown in gaol real quick. Probably more smaller tickets, but no 250kph onesOriginally Posted by Harps
Check out the Supermoto scene in Australia at http://www.supermotoaus.com!
If speeding is your trouble, you'll be better off on an SM.
That said, riding an SM opens all sorts of doors to new violations. Who knew it was illegal to stoppie down a crowded sidewalk?
WWW.GIXXER.COM Thats why :FU: Everyone i know spells it Gixxer or GSXR. not Gixer. I am not worried about catchin a ticket for something small and fun. But i will NOT go to jail for anything over 100 MPH! Out where I live its a mandatory 5 days in jail for anything 100mph + and Can be a max of 60 days!!. I live in the 2nd Highest average household income county in the nation so the Police here are diccks! But I have found myslef some local stunt areas with nothing around but pavement. So its the power and the speed thats gets you into trouble. No reason to Own a Crotch Rocket and not use the power
Supermoto is for me anyways. I kill it on Dirt bikes. Thanks for the reply's!
05 DRZ SM ( March )
I wonder how bad Full Coverage is on a SM? I pay $1200 a year for liability and comprehensive only on y Gixxer! No Full Coverage! Full coverage was 4500+ a year. Im 24 but was 23 at the time with a bad driving record but awesome Credit history. My buddy over at Geico says Insurance rates are based off of Credit too!!
What do you all pay?
around $100 a year, full coverage for the DRZ400 in CA that is now an SM. Of course, I am almost 40, but the smaller displacement, and lack of bodywork should make for a huge difference for you.
As for the comment regarding who knew about stoppies on sidewalks...what is the verdict? that was too funny, but it explains SM to a "T".
The goat trails we ride in the SC mountains, you never see a cop. If there are no cops, you don't get tickets.
Besides, I have more fun going 30MPH through a corner that would cause a sportbike pilot to shit his pants at 20 than I ever did going fast on a sportbike.
hmmm...I've had nothing but the opposite experience. I was always 'clean' on my ZX-6R (the last road-legal sportbike I owned), and only got one speeding ticket (+15kmh) in four years of streetriding various sportbikes. But the only time I went >200kmh was on the way to school (everyday) because the back-road up to campus was desolate. Other than that, I got all my kicks on the track, so I guess I never really felt tempted to get it out of my system on public roads.Originally Posted by imprezawd
But since I've had the moto, it's been an entirely different story! I've only ridden the thing on the road maybe 5(?) times (I bought it mainly for trackdays and dirtriding) and I've been pulled over three of those times. Seriously, it's like any excuse you have to do something stupid...you're gonna try to do something stupid. I guess I'm more worried about the small things, rather than big ticket items because that's never really been a problem.
And as for insurance, I paid about $400(?) for the year...but that was only liability coverage. Collision insurance is pointless, it more than doubles the premium, but the moto is pretty cheap to fix and pretty hard to wreck. Theft insurance is probably a good idea, but again it's expensive...and I don't ride the SM anywhere, it just stays in my garage unless I take it to a trackday where it's under my constant supervision.
Wait a minute, why the hell am I paying insurance for something I never ride!?!?!
I pay ~$300 a year for full coverage and low deductibles. I've got descent credit, descent record, married and 26. One of the larger variables in an insurance quote is displacment, so Motards should be reletively low unless your goin the 600+ route.

well, i rode my superhawk for the first time yesterday since i got my husky 450r, and it felt reeeeeaaaally slooooowwww. Not to mention how much easier it is to wheelie or do whatever else you wana do on a supermoto. I think you'll be happy with just about any sm you go with
Thanks for all the good reply's
Supermoto will be my Route to a longer lasting life
The DRZ is a lot of fun on a cart track.
Mind you, I also have a CRF, and they feels worlds apart, but if you do not have a bike to compare back to back, the DRZ is perfectly fine.
Good tires, and you will NOT be hurting for traction, and you will be scraping pegs.
Stoppies and wheelies pretty much anytime you could want, especially on a kart track.
Unless you are racing, you will not need anything else...I am convinced of that.
Of course, I do have the FCR and exhaust which totally transformed the character of the bike, and I mean like a complete makeover (extreme home makeover) type of transformation!
Get a Husqvarna SMR. My dealer installs 'factory' street legal kits sold by Fast by Ferracci and sells the bikes plated and ready to go. The street legal kit costs a couple hundred but right now you can find big incentives on leftover 2004 bikes. I'll let you know more about the kit when I pick up my bike next week.

The University of Wisconsin Press
Memoir / U.S. & European History / Radical Politics
Jumping the Line
The Adventures and Misadventures of an American Radical
William Herrick
With an Introduction by Paul Berman
Wisconsin Studies in Autobiography
"William Herrick is an unstoppable truthteller, just as brave in his older years as when he enlisted for the war against Franco. He is our American Orwell."Paul Berman, from the Introduction
An eye-opening account of time served in the great battles of our centuryfor workers' rights, against Fascism, Communism, and racismJumping the Line is the life story of an American original. William Herrick chronicles his adventures and misadventures on the front lines of the Spanish Civil War, in (and very much out of) the Communist Party, driving a tractor on a communal farm in Michigan, jumping the line as a hobo, organizing African American sharecroppers in Georgia, at work with Orson Welles, and immersed in his own writing.
Herrick chronicles a life of great conviction and great disillusion. He went to Spain in 1936 to fight against the Fascists and there witnessed the horrifying acts that Fascists and Communists alike committed, before he was felled by a near-fatal wound. Here he tells about the life that led him, a working-class Jewish kid from New York, into the idealism and then the murky politics of this internecine conflict. From the bloody fight in Spain he takes us to the battlefields of the Communist movement in the U.S., where he found himself parading up and down the garment district of Manhattan, denouncing his former comrades.
When Paul Berman interviewed Herrick in the Village Voice in 1986, for the fiftieth anniversary of the Spanish Civil War, Herrick's remarks so incensed other veterans of the Abraham Lincoln battalion that they picketed the paper. What William Herrick has to say doesn't always go down easily. But for those who like the truth, with a dash of wit and a healthy dose of history, it can be exhilarating.

- This IEMs one of the best I've ever bought. Its an analytical earphone and clean, detailed sound is great for jazz music.
Its packaging is satisfying.Build quality is quite good. Cable and red comply tips are so nice.
I think it is the best IEM for this price.

- This is the IEM for you to go for! Once you learned to live with the thin, let's say neutral, clarity of this very small and just lovely build fellas, you'll aks yourself: why shall I probably spend double the price on another IEM from a "big" manufacturer. Not for bass lovers!
- more than 1 year(s)
- Where I come from:
I currently own a pair of Grado SR60 for my home audio setup with a SB x-fi elite pro. Also a pair of Audioengine A5 as my reference speakers.
Cowon D2 with Sennheiser PX100 II and a pair of Soundmagic PL50 for on the move.
I consider myself a practical audiophile on a budget(if something like that ever existed :)) and by that I mean, like most of us, I do put a lot of thought into my audio purchases, which are on a shoestring budget, but I buy new stuff only when the older ones go bad.
Compared to Soundmagic PL50:
So I bought my Brainwavz B2 as a replacement for my PL50 that've just recently gone bad and I do sorely miss them. They were my favorite pair out of the one's I've owned.
Compared directly to PL50, the B2 is more fuller sounding with a more bass extension. Plus the sparkle at the top end that don't seem to exist on the darker sounding PL50's. B2's sound much more airy with a soundstage. also which PL50's lacked completely, me thinks. They also do have more instrument separation than the PL50's.
But as someone's said very rightly, a downgrade is immediately much more apparent and easier to pinpoint than an upgrade, and so I do notice B2's shortcomings when compared to the much cheaper soundmagics. I feel the PL50's bass has a better resolution than the B2's, provided you've got a good seal on the PL50's, and believe me, that's one helluva chore. Also, the mids on the PL50's were liquid, smooth as silk, and oh dear god, that makes me miss the PL50's so badly, I wanna buy them again, but then practicle audiophile argument, you see. Don't get me wrong, B2's do have good mids, but they sound a bit harsher compared to the PL50's.
It's probably gonna take me some time to get adjusted to the B2's well extended treble. As much as they offer the clarity, they become tiring for me after a while. Mind you, I've never had a pair like this before. Vocals, pop, jazz and live stuff sound amazing, probably turning down the treble a couple of notches helps a lot. Switch to rock, something like Megadeth, and it becomes a shrill party, completely unbearable for me. I don't know if it's a mastering issue or that of the B2's extreme treble.
Well, got it at a good discount with no extra shipping charges and was delivered to my doorstep in India on the 4th day. You guys rock! Although, I wasn't provided with a tracking number which made me worry a little since this was an international delivery.
+ Well extended bass and treble.
+ Airy sound.
+ Good soundstage and instrument separation.
+ unbelievable value
+ no cable microphonics whatsoever
+ quite comfortable
+ nice assortment of buds

- Treble needs a lot of taming. Sounds shrill on some rock titles.
- Bass resolution could be better.
- Mids just a tiny bit harsh, just nitpicking though.
- Black and white twisted cable is a fashion disaster.
- very scared to handle the pair because the strain relief at the buds look very delicate
- earbud housing is plastic and feel cheap
- more than 1 year(s)
- The B2 are one of the best IEM you can find in the market, I will describe the weaker points, because you can watch a lot of reviews describing the good ones.
The bass are high detailed, but needs a little power to be perfect (i hate sq so i didnt consider it as an option).
The comply red tip is the best companion for the B2 but you should buy a lot, because the included in the package have a discrete durability.
If you hate punchy bass and dont care about tips, this are the perfect choice for you.
- more than 1 year(s)
- I had a analytical dynamic driver iem from a much cheaper range, but this is tighter.
Fast music is not a problem, everything is crystal clear, it never gets chaotic.
I managed the get the punch out of the bass with EQ, if it's anyones like.
The midbass takes over the lowest ranges a bit though.
Highs are a bit forward but as far as I go, they are not harsh.
This is my first over-the-ear IEM, and for me, it's hard to get a perfect fit, still, isolation is reasonable.
The 45°jack is a welcomed change for me!
Instrument separation is superb, it's got some soundstage, though it is not an out-of-head experience.
The cable does seem cheap, but at least it's comfortable.

- I had a analytical dynamic driver iem from a much cheaper range, but this is tighter.
Fast music is not a problem, everything is crystal clear, it never gets chaotic.
I managed the get the punch out of the bass with EQ, if it's anyones like.

- The sound is amazing. Isolation is much better than R-50. However, they could do something to improve the cable. The cable cracked in several places 6 months after normal use. I am planning to buy another one.

- One of the best purchases for me. Being an analytical listener, i am hearing sounds with the B2 which i did not knew existed in the tracks. Totally worth the money spent on it.
- more than 2 year(s)
- This dual balance armature flagship of Brainwavz IEM is excellent for the rice especially when you get it during their promotion.
The sound is crisp, detail and revealing but maybe abit shy of the bass. It is good for someone who are into analytical sound and who like classical music. I don't think many IEM can beat this for the price.
MP4Nation provides good services too, noting that I bought several other pairs for myself and friends too. Delivery is fast and prompt! Well done!
- more than 2 year(s)
- I have just gotten my brainwavz b2. According to my first impression, the sound of this product is amazing, I hear everything in the music clearly even especially background sound of the music. I feel like I have a stage right in front of me and the artist sings the song for me at my home. Phsyically, headphone is nice and sturdy. Overall, this product has good quality. Also, if I have any problem with headphone, I can use 1 year warranty. Thanks to mp4nation for presenting that kind of products.

Don 2 Trailer – Official
The Official Trailer of Don 2, the teaser that is set to release with Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara is out on the internet. And as always, we have it right here for your viewing pleasure.
We have mixed opinions on the trailer. The film looks sleek, but the dialogues sound more like those Bollywood masala flicks from the 80s – "Ab Mujhe Koi Nahi Rok Sakta" right at the end.
We also loved the way SRK enters (at 0.25 minutes in the video) and the makers also tease with a small glimpse of Hrithik Roshan who makes a special appearance in Don 2. That's probably one more reason to watch the Farhan Akhtar directed film.
What do you think of the Don 2 Official Trailer? Tell us in the comments section below.
Don 2 Trailer
Don 2 stars Shahrukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Arjun Rampal and Boman Irani in key roles. The film releases during Christmas.
Update: No Hrithik in the teaser. It was SRK falling of the building. Also, its Kunal Kapoor whose seen riding the cycle.

The teaser of Don-2 is good, if not great. Some of the visuals, like 1st bike scene on the bridge, the jump from the building and the blast of the car were very well visualized. The production house gave an effort to attract mass audience by preparing the terser with dialog promos. 'Mere dushman samajh rahe thhe main lautkar nahi aaunga… is awesome. Sharukh and Priyanka chemistry looks good yet again and Boman Irani looks serious. All in one a good teaser

Phew! Was waiting for this one which is finally out..
Stylish promo but nothing new which i was expecting much bigger and better.. First lenght is short, then in this kind of genre it is so odinary teaser except 1 or 2 scenes which are superbly captured and even dialogues are'nt 'WOW!', it looks strictly okay atleast in promo, like a kid can think and delivers in their own "mai phir se aagaya or ab mujhe koi nahi rok sakta", so no more creativity which where it actualy dissapoints me..
Will not miss this one & will not waiting as well..

Some of the visuals are good but the dialogues are cringeworthy. The last line "ab muze koi nahi mita sakta" is lame – very lame. It is very unintelligent like some telugu/tamil films dubbed in hindi.Guess need to rewatch it once or twice.

@Suniel: Plz stop this bias, just because you're a Hrithik Roshan fan doesn't mean he is the greatest actor of the world and SRK is a bad actor. In fact SRK is anyday a way better actor than Hrithik, but you guys are always biased. WTH was the need to humilate SRK!
I'm an Aamir fan but does not mean i dislike SRK, Hrithik, Salman…each of them has his own qualities and of course flaws as well. If you think SRK was bad in MNIK than it's based on your personnal disliking towards him, in my opnion he was better than Hrithik in Guzaarish who overacted big time there. He was horrible in almost every scene but i don't blame him, that's how actors usulayy act in SLB films.
You guys should value each actor's strength, i.e SRK is ygly, short…but still he has achieved a lot in Bollywood without any godfather in the insudtrty, he had only talenta and luck!
Plz no more comments like this, even if i'm not his fan, i felt sorry to see people bashing him that way.

Priyanka: (July 14, 2011 at 8:47 pm)
@lousyama: Now WTH was the need to mention Aamir here?
That's the problem with SRK fans and SRK himself tehir greatest problem is Aamir they need to mention his name verytime!! wtf, i bet SRK dreams about Aamir every night.
And to let you know Aamir is the n°1 actor, Star and filmmaker in Bollywood everyone agrees, his powerful production house, his record breakers, and his genius attitude shows that he's the best today.
So SRK fans just don't dare to talk about Aamir, i like SRK also, but when SRK fans start bashing Aamir then we won't respect him anymore and we can also talk.
GOTIT? so chill out now get the hell out of here. Poor Immiture SRK FANS!!!

Makes about 8 cups, serving 6
Ingredientsadd to shopping list
- 1 whole chicken breast (about 1 1/4 pounds)
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil plus additional for frying the tortillas
- a 14- to 16-ounce can tomatoes, drained
- 1/3 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 fresh or pickled jalapeño chilies, or to taste, seeded and minced (wear rubber gloves)
- six 7-inch corn tortillas, halved and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-wide strips
- chopped fresh coriander for garnish if desired
In a large saucepan combine the chicken breast, the broth, and 3 cups water, bring the liquid to boil, and simmer the chicken, covered, for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Let the chicken cool in the broth. Transfer the chicken to a bowl, reserving the broth, discard the skin and bones, and shred the meat. In a heavy skillet cook the onion and the garlic in 2 tablespoons of the oil over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is golden and in a blender or food processor purée the mixture with the tomatoes. Stir the purée into the reserved broth with the lime juice and the chilies and simmer the soup for 5 minutes.
While the soup is simmering, in the skillet, cleaned, heat 1/4 inch of the additional oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it fry the tortilla strips in batches for 30 to 45 seconds, or until they are crisp, and transfer them as they are fried with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Add the shredded chicken and the tortilla strips to the soup and simmer the soup for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it is heated through. Ladle the soup into heated bowls and garnish it with the coriander.

From Plants with Magnetic Beads
The aim of this application is to facilitate the research on the genome of rye grass. Genomic DNA is extracted from homogenized plant material on the MICROLAB® STAR using the QIAGEN MagAttract® 96 Plant DNA kit. The MagAttract® kit is based on magnetic particles technology and provides high-purity DNA, which can be used for downstream applications such as PCR set-up.
Starting with approximately 50-70mg of freeze-dried material from rye grass, the yields on the MICROLAB® STAR are typically 7-8µg DNA. The whole extraction process for 96 samples takes about 2.5h. The isolated DNA is then utilized in various downstream applications such as gel analyses, PCR set-up and sequencing reaction preparation. PCR and sequencing reaction set-up are also automated on the same system.
The usage of both disposable tips and steel needles helps to reduce the running costs of the system.
Features and
- More consistent results/yields in comparison to manual preparation
- Fully automated hands-free processing of the protocol
- Other applications such as PCR set-up and sequencing reaction preparation can be automated on the same system
- MICROLAB® STAR, 8 channels
- Integrated plate handler (iSWAP)
- 96 Well Magnet
- Temperature controlled carrier (TCC) for plates and reagents
- Variomag Teleshake 70
- Needle Wash Station for 1000ul and 300ul Steel Needles

Classic Sci-Fi movie scenes recreated using old ink cartridges
Most people have a drawer full of old empty ink cartridges. So the Ink and Media blog asked local artist Faith Pearson if she could come up with a good use for their pile of expensive trash. The result was these lovingly recreated scenes from classic science fiction movies, built using what most of us would normally throw away.
I hate spending more per ounce than a fine champagne just to feed my printer, so it's great to see someone doing something creative with the pricey leftovers from printing the odd airline boarding pass.

The chairman and managing director of a maharatna and a Member of Parliament have levelled charges of corruption against each other which have now reached the highest levels of the government.
Less than a month after he was accused of misappropriating funds by a Shiv Sena MP, Chairman and Managing Director of maharatna Bharat Petroleum has hit back, complaining to the Central Vigilance Commission and Petroleum Minister Veerappa Moily that the MP was armtwisting him to award a contract worth over Rs 100 crore to a company of the MP�s choice.
This relates to the supply of 5.5 lakh tonnes of low-sulphur coal to BPCL�s joint venture Bharat Oman Refinery Limited (BORL) in Bina, Madhya Pradesh.
The company in question is Hyderabad-based MBG Commodities Private Ltd, the third lowest bidder.
On August 6, BPCL CMD R K Singh wrote to Moily that Shiv Sena Deputy Leader in the Lok Sabha Chandrakant Khaire called him at his residence a day earlier �asking me...not to award the contract to L1 party�.
In the letter, a copy of which is with The Indian Express, Singh claims that Khaire asked him to award the contract to MBG Commodities.
Incidentally, Singh says that on August 5 itself, the contract, as per norms, was awarded to Gandhar Coal and Mines, the L1 party.
In his letter, Singh mentions that Khaire had written letters to the Prime Minister�s Office on July 19 and to Department of Personnel & Training and the CVC leveling �personal charges� against Singh. Khaire had alleged in these letters that Singh had instructed BORL to buy coal from Gandhar and �that in the process...had misappropriated large amount of funds.�
Khaire is also said to have showed Singh a letter he had drafted to Director, CBI, alleging that Singh had misappropriated money.
Khaire�s letter leveled �serious corruption charges� against Singh for using �his power to accept the financial bid from Gandhar without actual percent of duties and taxes (being quoted).�
Singh claims that Khaire told him not to consider Gandhar as it was evading duty and supplying inferior coal. In his letter, Singh wrote that he called up BORL managing director B K Das in the MP�s presence and Das �expressed total satisfaction with the coal supply�. Singh then told Khaire that he couldn�t �interfere in the matter� as the decision lay with BORL�s board-appointed committee of which he was not a member.
When contacted, Singh declined to comment.

Box pleat curtains are one of the easiest window treatment ideas to make. Another plus for "budget watchers" is that this particular curtain doesn't take much fabric at all!
Depending on what fabric you choose, this style of curtain can go from traditional to contemporary. So, below are the step-by-step instructions along with photos. Good luck, and happy sewing and saving!
This is a photo of a "L" shaped bracket. They come in a pack of four, and run about $2.75.
Before cutting your fabric, you need to get your window measurements . For the box pleat curtain example, the window measured 50". If you are mounting your curtain on a 1x4 board, you need to add 5" for the ends of the board, and 8" for the pleat in the middle.
Once you have cut your fabric, lay the ride side of your drapery fabric down on top of your lining. Pin all the way around, and cut out your lining. As you can see, I always have extra help at my house. Then sew ONLY the sides, and bottom of the curtain. Turn, and press neatly.
Lay your curtain on the floor. Mark the middle of your curtain with a pin at the top of your fabric. Measure 4" on each side. Pull fabric over to middle to form pleat. Take a hot iron and carefully press pleat.
After you cut your 1 x 4, (if you have no way of cutting your own board, ask someone at the home improvement store) cover the board with your drapery fabric like pictured. Be sure to cover and fold in the ends of the board.
Next, lay your board with staple side up. Mark the middle of the board, and then on three sides of the board measure and mark an inch from the edge of the board all the way around.
Then staple the middle of the curtain to the middle of the board keeping it right at your inch mark, and work your way out to the edges.
Once you have stapled the front of the curtain you will want to put the board on a table so that you can finish the ends. I usually put the curtain on my kitchen island.
Staple the ends of the board, as shown and finish mounting curtain.
Now you are going to professionally finish the top of your curtain. Using your drapery fabric cut a strip that is 1 1/2 times wider than the top of your board, and then add 2" to the total length of your board.
Begin stapling with right side of fabric down. Staple all the way across.
Then fold over, tuck in the fabric, and staple the fabric down all the way across the board.
Finish the sides by tucking fabric in and stapling down. Run a hot iron over the top of your upholstered board to flatten down the fabric! And WOW, now all you have to do is hang your curtain!
Hanging these box pleat curtains is SO easy!!! Get out your two "L" shape brackets, and four dry wall screws.
Starting from the very end of the window trim, measure 6" up, and mark with a pencil. Do this on both sides. Screw your "L" shape bracket in the wall at your 6" marks. Place your valance on top of both brackets, make sure to push the board all the way to the wall, and reach under curtain and while holding the top of the board, place two screws in through the bracket and into your board. Repeat on the other side! If you can use an electric screwdriver, you can mount your own box pleat curtain!
And, ladies, they make a very powerful, small, compact screwdriver! Mine is in a lime green color. Doesn't help the job go faster, but it looks cool.
Here is a box pleat curtain I made for a client's kitchen window curtains. I love the red and green together.

Four minutes sufficed to clear up the Mud Turtle's official obligations to the company.

Boy, he said, how mens prada shoes bout some licker? Me an the Mud Turtle here craves to git baptized wid a couple o slugs o gin. Is de gin included in de rabbi business? The chef looked at the Wildcat. Us rabbis handles some gin, but it sho comes high. Boy, us aims to pay high. You ain't talkin to no busted steamboat niggahs. Us ain't fiel han's. Me an my podneh got money; all we craves is gin. It is too generally the case that people are content to live as if they were sure of constantly retaining their health, and never losing their employment.

There is only one way of fending off such an embarrassment; and that is, to resolve, whatever may be the amount of one's income, to lay aside some part prada shoes to serve as a reliance in time of trouble. A little economy though it involves self-denial will be well repaid by the prada trainers feeling of security it engenders. Mr. Harding was not compelled to remain inactive as long as he feared. Not that his line of business revived that still remained depressed for a considerable time but another path was opened to him.

Seizing him by the throat, the villain effectually prevented his calling for help, and at once commenced rifling his pockets, when the cooper arrived on the scene.

The villain prada for men hesitated but a moment, then springing to his feet, he hastily made off, under cover of the darkness.

Here's Dustin's latest dispatch from the boat, along with some beautiful photos from a dive near Port St. Joe, Florida:
Under typical weather conditions, it should have taken the divers only an hour and a half to reach the 3-5's area on the 42-foot Oceana Longitude this morning. But because of rough seas, the divers decided to divert from the course when they realized that it would take nearly twice as long to reach the location. Instead, they visited Marquardt's Barge, approximately 10 miles from where the Oceana Latitude is anchored in Port St. Joe.
Nancy Rome is a documentarian and writer based in Baltimore. She sent us this thoughtful guest post.
The question on everyone's mind right now and for the foreseeable future is: Where has the oil gone?
Much of the scientific community scoffs at the White House's claim last week that 75% of the oil has been cleaned up, even going so far as to call the claim ludicrous, because tracking the spill is so difficult.
To say how much has really been cleaned up is nearly impossible, and oil continues to wash up "under" beaches and marshes on barrier islands and will continue to do so for some time.
If we still do not know exactly how much oil actually gushed from the Deepwater Horizon, then how can we know the exact amount that has been cleaned up?

Innovators at NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center have patented a kinematics equations integrator device and method that improve accuracy when determining the attitude of a flight vehicle. Inertial navigation systems (INS) are widely used in flight vehicle applications such as aircraft, spacecraft, missiles, and satellites. These self-contained navigation systems are used to determine flight vehicle position. However, several factors cause these systems to require correction terms and renormalization over time. This innovation uses angular velocity and initial vehicle attitude data to greatly simplify the computation required in the integration loop and transmit the result to the navigational computer for use in a flight vehicle's correcting course. The technology can be implemented in a logic circuit or as software on a microchip. The method preserves the quaternion normalization and does not require error correction terms or renormalization. As a result, this approach increases integration speed, decreases software complexity, and requires only a basic computational system for operation.
- Accurate: Improves quality of critical attitude data
- Faster: Increases integration speed
- High-performance: Never requires correction or re-normalization of the quaternion
- Efficient: Decreases the amount and complexity of required software
- Convenient: Offers portability between various computational systems because of its non-proprietary solution
- Military aircraft
- General aviation aircraft
- Helicopters
- Satellites and other spacecraft
- Missiles and rockets
Armstrong has one patent issued (U.S. Patent No: 6,061,611→ ) for this technology.
Commercial Opportunity
This technology is part of NASA's technology transfer program. The program seeks to stimulate development of commercial uses of NASA-developed technologies. NASA is flexible in its agreements, and opportunities exist for licensing and joint development. Armstrong is interested in a partnership to commercialize this technology.

Group Medical Appointments Get Another Look
This article appears in the May 2012 issue of HealthLeaders magazine.
Picture this: In a conference room at a major healthcare institution's family health center, 10 patients sit in comfortable chairs waiting to discuss their asthma. After a few minutes, a facilitator enters—at some institutions, it's a social worker or a nurse; here it's a psychologist.
What questions do you have for the doctor? she asks. What concerns? Do you need medication refills? What are your goals for today? As each person speaks, the facilitator scribbles notes on a whiteboard, readying the group for the physician to arrive.
Once the doctor is in the room, the visit speeds up. She conducts an individual follow-up visit for every patient, ending with a care plan and next steps, leaving time for questions. An hour-and-a-half and a slew of queries later, the appointment ends. "Each person has the same visit that they would normally, but nine other patients are watching," says Marianne Sumego, MD, a staff physician at Cleveland Clinic's Willoughby Hills Family Health Center. "Can't you imagine the strength, if you're just sitting there listening?"
Sumego experiences a similar scene with every shared medical appointment she conducts, something she's done regularly for the past decade. "I start with patient A and go through her asthma. I fully complete patient A's visit and we develop a plan, then I go onto patient B. Patient B tells me about his asthma and we do a follow-up," she says. "Then we go to patient C, who may have asthma symptoms. We talk about her asthma, what she's currently doing, what she needs."
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
M. Bennet Broner, PhD (6/7/2012 at 1:07 PM)
This is deja vu all over again. Around 1993 I developed a group health maintence group concept focused around a psychologist and a health educator. I shopped the idea to the Center for Family Practice at the University of Alabama, Birmingham; and at Cooper Green Mercy Hospital (county run)and both saw no practical need for it. I wonder if they'd feel the same today? Presently, I am redeveloping the program for a non-medical non-profit.
Adrian Scipione (6/7/2012 at 9:46 AM)
I can't imagine this improving the care that the patient receives. It is highly improbable that every single patient in that group session would be as open and honest with their physician as if they were one on one, particularly if they have concerns about one treatment plan over another. It appears to me that, outside of a few cases that would be enhanced by a group meeting (ie. educating the patient on what to expect from their knee replacement surgery), this would stifle a dialogue in instances where that is very important. It is entirely a different matter where the course of treatment and the informed consent has already been obtained and you are merely going through the specific process and educating the patients on what they can expect. I am a non-believer who needs to be convinced about the advantages of this.

forward by NASA in response to the Vision focused on astrobiology. For Mars, the objective was to "[c]onduct robotic exploration of Mars to search for evidence of life, to understand the history of the solar system, and to prepare for future human exploration," and the goals across the solar system all had astrobiology objectives at their center.6 Irrespective of the central roles that astrobiology, in general, and the search for life on Mars, in particular, appear to play in NASA's enunciated goals, budgetary decisions made in 2006 seemed to undercut this commitment.7 Fortunately, events in 2007 suggest that the downward trend in NASA's astrobiology spending may have been reversed.
At approximately the same time as these policies were being developed, the National Research Council's (NRC's) decadal survey for solar system exploration emphasized that astrobiology goals, related to understanding the habitability of the planets and satellites and determining the distribution of life in our solar system, should be considered central to the underlying rationale for solar system exploration.8 The missions identified by the decadal survey as addressing high-priority science goals, although not identified as astrobiology missions per se, all addressed key astrobiology goals.
The closest preceding document related to a Mars astrobiology strategy was the 1995 NASA report titled An Exobiological Strategy for Mars Exploration.9 That report laid out the scientific objectives for martian astrobiology and identified the then-key points for implementing a successful astrobiology strategy. The basic approach outlined in that document was to carry out the exploration of Mars in discrete phases, each providing an increasingly detailed look at the planet. The phases described were the following:
Global reconnaissance in order to understand global processes and to identify sites for detailed in situ investigations;
Exploration of particular sites in detail using landed packages in order to understand their geology and history;
Deployment of astrobiologically relevant instruments onto the surface that focus on prebiotic chemistry, past life, and/or present life;
Robotic return of samples of the surface back to Earth for detailed analysis; and
Human exploration of the martian surface.
Remarkably, the Mars Exploration Program as actually implemented in the last decade closely follows the first three exploration phases recommended in the 1995 NASA report. Global reconnaissance has been carried out by Mars Global Surveyor, Mars Odyssey, and, now, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The combination of high-resolution imaging; multispectral mapping in the visible, near-infrared, and thermal infrared; compositional mapping using gamma-ray and neutron techniques; and radar mapping of the subsurface has provided detailed information on the geological history of Mars and on processes that pertain to the potential for liquid water and for life. In situ analysis by the Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity investigated two sites for which there was evidence for significant water-related activity and confirmed that liquid water played an important role at both. Two missions planned for the rest of this decade, the 2007 Phoenix lander that will investigate the geology and chemistry of high-latitude ground ice and the 2009 Mars Science Laboratory that will investigate astrobiologically relevant chemistry and climate behavior, are both missions that address fundamental astrobiology science objectives.
It is in this context that the present scientific strategy for the astrobiological exploration of Mars has been formulated. Although the science issues had been discussed previously as components of prior NRC reports,10–12 this is the first time that an integrated astrobiology strategy has been constructed for Mars by the NRC. The construction of such a strategy recognizes the increased scientific importance of astrobiology, and of astrobiology for Mars in particular, within the overall space science community. Not only does Mars arguably have the best chance in the solar system (other than Earth) of having or having had life, but it is also the most accessible of the bodies that are important to the astrobiological study of the solar system.
All of these considerations have informed the committee's effort to describe the science objectives for the subsequent astrobiological investigation of Mars. Although science objectives are emphasized in the committee's strategy, they cannot be developed in isolation from knowledge of what instruments are or might be available to

Natural Procreative Technology, or NaProTECHNOLOGY™, is a new women's health science that works cooperatively with a woman's menstrual and fertility cycles. This system combines family planning with reproductive and gynecologic health maintenance. The science of NaProTECHNOLOGY™ evolved as physicians found connections between FertilityCare™ cycle patterns and underlying conditions.
NaProTechnology™ approach can be used for:
The NaProTECHNOLOGY™ approach differs from other systems. It has a strong basis in patient education, empowering a woman with the knowledge of her own reproductive rhythms. It seeks to uncover underlying disorders by closely observing patterns in a woman's cycle and restoring her own reproductive rhythms instead of suppressing them with hormonal contraceptives. Finally, it uniquely respects the dignity of women, the natural ecology of their bodies, and the sanctity of human life.
