NORTH KINGSTOWN – For the last of the ecumenical Lenten luncheon series, the Rev. John Unsworth, of St. Bernard's Roman Catholic Church, introduced something new: humor.
A heavy rain had not kept people away – as in previous weeks, 100 attended – and, after the simple meal of bread and soup was over, he stepped to the front and announced: "I've had disturbing news. I'm dessert."
Reminding the assembly that each of the six participating pastors had agreed to portray a key character from Holy Week, he said he chose John, "the beloved disciple. I'm no fool. That is who I am today."

Last night's episode of True Blood was full of some pretty great moments, and if you are not watching it, you should be. Really, the show is awesome.
But as for the clothing aspect of the show, for Sookie's trip to Texas, she skipped off her private plane looking like she'd hopped off the pages of a J. Crew catalog, in a pale yellow pleated skirt, white pumps, and a brown and yellow floral cardigan.
Sadly, I could not find a floral cardigan at J. Crew that was still in stock (there were at least two good ones that were not), and after checking all the usual places, the best I could find was the floral cardigan at the Gap for $24.99.
As for the other pieces, Forever 21 has an almost perfect pleated skirt for $15.80
At Etsy, this one seller has several adorable butterfly necklaces, all under $15, and I can't pick just one. (not to mention the 20 million other butterfly necklaces on Etsy, good luck making a decision!)
For the shoes, I think these satin open toe pumps are super girly and cute - not quite like Sookie's simple white pumps, but I tend to gravitate towards shoes that are anything but plain.
To tie in the brown in the cardigan, Sookie has a brown flower clip in her hair, another item to be found in abundance at Etsy, or Forever 21. I chose one from Forever, because how do you beat $2.50?
She also has the teensist bit of a white lacy cami peaking out from under her cardigan, and I would once again go with the truly cheapest one out there, $5.80 at Forever 21.
"I've always loved these [tiny bottles of alcohol], they're like booze for dolls."

The $45 trillion Question
The catastrophe behind climate change - Telegraph
As the estimated cost of measures proposed by politicians to "combat global warming" soars ever higher - such as the International Energy Council's $45 trillion - "fighting climate change" has become the single most expensive item on the world's political agenda.
As Senators Obama and McCain vie with the leaders of the European Union to promise 50, 60, even 80 per cent cuts in "carbon emissions", it is clear that to realise even half their imaginary targets would necessitate a dramatic change in how we all live, and a drastic reduction in living standards.
All this makes it rather important to know just why our politicians have come to believe that global warming is the most serious challenge confronting mankind, and just how reliable is the evidence for the theory on which their policies are based.
Go. Read.

Widnes are to appoint Brett Hodgson as one of head coach Denis Betts' assistants on a full-time basis for next season.
The former Man of Steel is currently working with the Vikings in a part-time capacity and has played an important role in their flying start to the 2014 Super League season.
From November the ex-Warrington Wolves and Huddersfield Giants man will join full-time on a two-year contract, much to Betts' delight.
Betts said: "We've seen already what great value he can offer the club and its players and for him to be around in a full-time capacity will only enhance our environment.
Specialist coach
"I've been on the look out for a specialist coach in certain key areas and Brett fits the bill perfectly. He's made a difference in the short time he's been here and we will look forward to him being around over the next few years."
Widnes chief executive James Rule said: "Brett has had a fantastic impact on the Vikings environment this season.
"Every one of our players, from the grassroots right through to first team, will benefit from the appointment. It's a hugely significant step forward for our club."
Hodgson, a former Huddersfield captain who was named Man of Steel in 2009, said: "It's a challenge I'm really excited about. I'm keen to progress as a coach and this is the next step for me."

Hometown: Tyler, Texas (home of the bouffant)
Natural Hair Color: Red (though not as copper as I like..)
Celebrity Obsession: Lisa Loeb & Aaron Lewis (lead singer of Staind)
What made you choose hair?
I like to think hair chose me! I really wanted to go to hair school, but my parents pushed me to pursue a traditional degree. Afterwards, I ended up working in salons and hair schools. "You can take the girl out of the hair industry, but you can't take the hair industry out of the girl" .. Oh wait, that isn't how that quote goes.
Now I mix my Marketing/Journalism background and love for the beauty industry in this perfect balance of hairphoria. The Hair Nerds is my refuge from reality.. a place where people understand my excitement and stalker tendencies.
What does your hair color say about you?
That I am super crazy.. Lol. A TSA agent at the airport stopped me a couple of weeks ago to ask if "everything he had been told about red heads was true." Uhhhhhhhhh, maybe?
I knew I was a HAIR NERD when…
I started rearranging our family trips and holidays to fit around Hair-Ventures.
Best part of Hair Nerd life…
The Hair Nerd lifestyle.. No one questions me dropping everything and flying around the country to meet and hang out with my favorite hair celebrities. I love the energy at events, the "aha moments" in education and seeing the excitement in a new students face as they get their first set of supplies.
What do people find surprising about you?
I rarely sleep. I work into the wee hours of the morning. So the first couple of e-mails you get from me at 3:00am may seem odd, but I assure you it is totally normal.
On a typical day you can find me…
I fill my 9-5 hours enhancing the "Hair School Experience" for my students, and in the evening I play Hair Mom before settling in with my laptop to stalk the masses.
3 Fun Facts about you:
- I am totally blind in my left eye from a birth defect.
- My Texas accent only comes out when I drink, ya'll.
- I have a pretty intense collection of hair related shirts. The front desk people at my gym are beginning to think I ONLY own salon shirts.

Waking Up Next to a Beautiful Woman... with Erin Wasson
Because wouldn't you like to wake up next to a beautiful woman who also happens to be a supermodel and now a lead actress in that Abraham Lincoln vampire movie and who's used to waking up in fancy places all over the world like Brooklyn's Wythe Hotel? Well, now you can. Sorta.

On Water...
"I'm a really big fan of the shower — I actually have a steam shower here in California — because warm water is very healing. Sensual. Without trying to sound too esoteric, I think our obsession with water comes from a very infant stage; we spend nine months of our lives in it. And, you know, wiping away the sins. The sins."

The idea of taking advantage of the narrow isthmus in Panama to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans was first mentioned in the 1500's. A railway was built in 1855 where the canal is situated today. This railway was a great influence on trade and really got people thinking about the advantages of an all-water passage between the two oceans. After many years of jockeying for control of the canal and battling malaria and yellow fever, the canal was finally finished in 1914.
The Panama Canal has always had to adjust to meet the demands of international ocean shipping. Not only has the size and shape of ocean shipping vessels changed, but the amount of traffic that the canal would see was grossly underestimated. It was originally estimated that the canal could support a maximum of 80 million tons per year. However, the reported traffic in the past few years has hit over 300 million tons per year. It has become apparent that it is time for some major changes in the canal system.
The demand on the canal has been steadily rising. Ships are getting too large to use the Panama Canal. Over half of the ships that use the canal now barely fit. Over 30% of cargo ships are already too big to use the canal. As ocean freight and cargo ships get larger, the canal will begin to lose its importance in the world trade market. This is why it has become so important that the canal, once again, adjusts to meet the demands of the market.
The Panama government has approved the project and construction began in 2007. It is expected to be complete and in full operation by 2015. The new expansion consists of six new locks, all operating parallel to the old Panama Canal. The new passage will allow cargo ships up to 1,200 feet long and 160 feet wide to pass. It is expected that the new expanded portion will make repairs and upkeep of the older part of the canal much easier.
The current Panama Canal has two lanes that operate independently of each other, allow ships to pass in two directions at once. The new, third lane, will allow larger ships to pass one direction at a time. Two new access channels will be built to route the expanded lanes to the locks. The locks will help to transport ocean shipping vessels up to the level of the Gatun Lake and then back down to sea level again. The new locks will be emptied and filled by gravity, the same as the old locks. However, the gates have a different construction and will be rolling gates instead of miter gates, which will be safer in the larger locks.
Miter gates are essentially doors that swing open to allow water to flow through. Roller gates are constructed of round steel drums, they are much stronger and can cover a much wider passage way. Because the pressure of the water creates the seal at the bottom and sides of the roller gate, it is considered to be much safer and is much less likely to leak. Roller gates can be raised above or below the water (depending on the type) and allow for clear passage without obstruction.
The growth and use of the Panama Canal has increased so much over the past few years that its profitability is feared to become stagnant. The expansion project is expected to help the Panama Canal handle new business and boost its viability in the ocean shipping market. With larger ocean freight vessels being supported and efficiency being increased, the Panama Canal project is expected to save it from becoming obsolete in the future.

Still, there's all the other things we have to do for ourselves (shopping, cleaning...) that take away from writing time. The thing is not to beat yourself up over that (or anything else).

Fortunately, I did put in over 20 years of writing--albeit as a technical writer in business environments, but it was still writing and with an audience, too. Now that I don't do that any more, I can get away with making things up in the fiction world and not get taken to task over it. And you can send your first-page submission in to the wonderful folks here at TKZ and receive useful critical comments and not get ripped over it, either.

So just GO FOR IT!Jim in Missoulahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4430862590333307596.post-601283887802925262014-01-19T19:24:34.701-05:002014-01-19T19:24:34.701-05:00I am so happy to hear this.

I wondered at first if it was too late for me now. I never finished my degree, and it seemed like biography I read had a degree included. I started reading up on the writing craft, researching for the novel, and all the time I was preparing for it, I wondered if I could really do it. I'm one of those type of learners where I have to write everything down. It helps me remember. I make copious notes on everything I read. I enjoy the process, I have been struggling with plot, so I am currently reading your book on Plot and Structure. I wanted to thank you. It is helping me a lot. I don't intend to quit.

I have eight different novels in various stages — one's in a fifth draft, one's in a fourth, and a couple are little more than plot notes and character sketches — and I finally had to develop a "WIP hierarchy."

I sorted through each idea for a) its readiness; b) its commercial potential; and c) how much I loved it. So even before this blog post, I picked one to put most of my time and energy into, with two to go to when I needed a break from the first. The rest, I look in on from time to time, maybe gather a little note-string.

So far, so good. I'd say that my top pick is within four months of being ready for beta readers. This, after nearly eight years of dicking around with it.

It feels good. And I feel good. Almost as good as I did at age forty, but not quite. I struggle to maintain energy, and so that's where the rest of this blog resonates.Jim Thomsenhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4430862590333307596.post-68745814166000537542014-01-19T14:58:08.447-05:002014-01-19T14:58:08.447-05:00I began writing upon retirement.

Gru is back...and it was worth the wait.
Steve Carell's lovable villain has settled into Dad-mode in 'Despicable Me 2'and the job suits him just fine. But, when a fetching femaile agent from the 'Anti-Villain League', voiced by Kristen Wiig, enlists our hero to help catch a newfangled bad guy, that's when the action really begins.
We've got booby traps, eruopting volcanoes, fancy blasters, airborne battles and, yes, a plot to kidnap the beloved Minions and transform them from their yellow state into purple, flesh-eating monsters. Truthfully, this part bothered my 7 year old. I could feel his heart racing as I gave him a comforting hug...and he actually said he wanted to leave the theater. The Minions are so funny and cute...he has a stuffed version at home in his room...and I think he found it troubling that some of his favorite characters became kind of scary. Spoiler alert! Once it appeared that everything would return to normal, Ben was OK...and, in the end, he said he really liked the movie anyway.
But, this film really shines when it shows heart, despite all the 3D action sequences. Gru's relationships with his three adopted daughters, Margo, Edith and Agnes, is extremely sweet and the youngest little girl is as charmingly hysterical as ever. And, his romance with Lucy, Wiig's character, left me cheering, culminating in the Minions' rendition of "I Swear" by boy band All-4-One, that was so funny, it sent me into a fit of giggles.
My kids really enjoyed the 2 hours...this is a solid, well-thought out follow-up...one that is almost as good as the original.
And, we were thrilled to learn about a 3D Lego movie, on the way in 2014. It looks pretty wicked!
Now, I just want a chip hat.
Watch 'Despicable Me 2' and you'll want one, too!
Have you seen the new Gru? What did you and your kids think?

The Tasting Room is closed for the season.
Cheers to all who helped make 2014 a memorable year at the Vineyard.
We will be reopening in early Spring 2015. Happy New Year!
Saltwater Farm is an award-winning vineyard set on more than 100 panoramic acres – 15 of which are planted with six varieties of grapes – bordered by tidal marshes, a cove and vistas of Long Island Sound, near the historic New England coastal village of Stonington, Connecticut.
The centerpiece of the bucolic property, which has a small private airport dating to the late 1930s, is a World War II – vintage hangar, designed by the late architect John W. Lincoln, a colleague of Walter Gropius. The hangar, opening onto terraces and the vineyard, has been preserved and converted into a winery. The seamlessly renovated building showcases a vaulting roof, silvery milled aluminum exterior, the original interior wood sheathing and, dominating the airy room and gathering places, handsome and massive timber trusses.
Saltwater Farm Vineyard is an ideal setting for celebration or for contemplation depending on the occasion. For more information and to contact us call toll free at 800-818-7258 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

New York City Ballet: George Balanchine's The Nutcracker
Time Out says
Posted: Thu Mar 15 2012
New York City Ballet continues with performances of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker, with scenery by Rouben Ter-Arutunian, costumes by Karinska and lighting by Mark Stanley, after Ronald Bates. The production is a magical occasion: Along with a one-ton Christmas tree that grows from 12 to 40 feet, there's a snowstorm of blizzard proportions and a nine-foot-wide Mother Ginger (her skirt, that is). The ballet, from 1954, never grows old. Visit the website for casting. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Sept 24 at 10am.

Hello. ♥
My name is
you can call me STEPH
I love all kinds of art like digital art, pixel, and photography.
I am American born Chinese and I live in Shanghai, China. But my hometown is Babylon, New York in Long Island
My main sports are swimming and running competitively.
I joined dA on September 20, 2009, because my friend told me to [or some other reason i forgot ] I was thinking that I would never use this account. I was wrong though, because there was something about dA that made me keep on coming back. I was in-active for a few months...or a year
But now i'm active! and I try new styles and all my friends on dA supported me by giving me llamas, points and constructive feedback.
I am an emoticonist, i mainly make emoticons and little animations, but I am also a varied artist. I make tons of vector emotes, avatars... sometimes i use pixels to create pieces that aren't emotes. Occasionally I will upload some photography.
I plan to make a little of everything so watch me to stay tuned!
Feel free to visit my gallery and leave a comment! I love people that just randomly come talk to me. haha

This is tack sharp and for that, it brings out the feeling of the shot even more. Its a very stark and moody shot and the lighting and setting give it a very forboding feeling. I love it!

Emotion and mood are really hard to convey in a photo, unless you have the right model (or lighting). This is an excellent effort, I do find that pipe just a tad distracting and looks much better without it. Cropping it out would bring the model too low in the frame, maybe a bit of cloning is required here, unless you can go back and reshoot!
Is that building safe?!!, reminds me of my house when I first moved in.
Nominating Constructive Critique
Thanks 4 all ur comments peeps n yes I did scream 2 lol!
The pipe is really distracting and I may go back 2 it at some point n clone it out!
Yeah I could go back n reshoot but am apprehensive as Ive been caught like 3 times lol!
U all should go b4 it goes though its such an amazing place!
Glad I caught the emotion as thats the main issue I wanted 2 portray so thanks peeps u have made my day! xxxx

I live in a place called Stannington, too. I've been meaning to go to the Stannington near Newcastle for years, but thought people would think of me as more odd than they do already.
If I'd known this cool abandoned building was there, I would have visited earlier...

Press Release
Tuesday 27 March 2012
The European Securities and Markets Authority's (ESMA) consultation on types of alternative investment funds (AIFs) and their managers is unnecessarily prescriptive in some areas. The draft guidelines do not have sufficient flexibility to accommodate the very wide range of investment vehicles covered by the Directive.
IMA Director of Authorised Funds and Tax, Julie Patterson said:
"There is much in the ESMA draft guidelines that is helpful and sensible. But, a less prescriptive approach is needed in some areas.
"ESMA appears to be restricting the ability of the manager to delegate investment management and risk management. This is common among many types of AIF and should not be constrained.
"Also, there is some ambiguity about whether MiFID-authorised firms can also be alternative investment fund managers or whether they must first relinquish their MiFID licence. This issue needs clarity."
Read the IMA response here.
For further information please contact:
Navdeep Sidhu, Press Officer - 020 7831 0898 or 07843 517618

About Us

email@example.com Pic
Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers operate and maintain a variety of mechanical systems including all types of boiler systems. They frequently are the only persons at a facility who have the knowledge of how these systems work. They are vested with the responsibility of ensuring that the boiler and other facility systems work in a safe, effective and efficient manner.
The work of Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers is varied and complex. They are responsible for the operation, maintenance, renovation and repair of boiler systems and all other mechanical systems within a given facility. They are employed in schools, hospitals, hotels, apartment buildings, shopping malls, airports, power plants, industrial and manufacturing plants, breweries, co-generation plants, petro-chemical plants, office and commercial buildings, government facilities and other workplaces. In operating and repairing these facilities, stationary engineers perform work on boilers and steam systems; heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems; building automation systems; diesel engines, turbines, generators; pumps, piping and compressed gas systems; refrigeration and electrical systems and numerous other physical plant functions. These workers are called Stationary Engineers because the equipment they operate is similar to equipment operated by locomotive or marine engineers except it is not in a vehicle that moves. In Canada they are also licenced as Operating or Power Engineers in some Provinces. In most provinces there are four classes of Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers,they are 1st, 2nd , 3rd & 4th Class, while some of the provinces also have a 5th Class with the highest licence being the 1st Class Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineer.
Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers start up, regulate, repair and shut down equipment. They ensure that equipment operates safely and economically and within established limits by monitoring attached meters, gauges, and other instruments, and increasingly, computerized controls. They manually control equipment and make the necessary adjustments. They use hand and power tools to perform repairs and maintenance ranging from a complete overhaul to replacing defective valves, gaskets, or bearings. They also record relevant events and facts concerning operation and maintenance in an equipment log. On steam boilers, for example, they observe, control, and record steam pressure, temperature, water level, power output, and fuel consumption. Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers can often detect potential mechanical problems by observing and listening to the pitch of the machinery. They routinely check safety devices, identifying and correcting any trouble that develops.
Stationary (Operating, Power) Engineers also perform routine maintenance, such as repairing and replacing pumps, motors and other operating equipment, lubricating moving parts, replacing filters, and removing soot and corrosion that can reduce operating efficiency. They also test and chemically treat hydronic systems to prevent corrosion and harmful deposits.
Stationary engineers generally have steady year-round employment. They usually work a 5-day, 40-hour week. Many work one of three daily 8-hour shifts in 24 hour operations, and weekend and holiday work often is required. Some large plants also work a seven day week with the operator working 12 hour shifts with a variety of schedules which allows for more days off. Engine rooms, power plants, and boiler rooms usually are clean and well lighted. Even under the most favorable conditions, however, some stationary engineers are exposed to high temperatures, dust, dirt, and high noise levels from the equipment. General maintenance duties may cause contact with oil and grease, as well as fumes or smoke. Workers spend much of their time on their feet; they also may have to crawl inside boilers and work in crouching or kneeling positions to inspect, clean, or repair equipment. Because stationary engineers work around boilers as well as electrical and mechanical equipment, they must be alert to avoid burns, electric shock, and injury from moving parts.
WHAT IS NEEDED TO ATTAIN A LICENCE� In general, a high school diploma is helpful but not necessary and specialized training.� To be a Power, Operating, Stationary Engineer or Auxiliary Equipment Operator, you need an apprenticeship program in stationary or power engineering; or on-the-job training and correspondence/high school courses; or a college training program in stationary or power engineering. You also need certification in the province/territory where you'll work. � To be a Power station operator, you must complete an apprenticeship in stationary or power engineering, or have several years' experience and some high school, correspondence or college courses in stationary or power engineering. You also need certification in the province/territory where you'll work.
Useful Experience/Skills � Monitoring Computerized equipment � Mechanics � Communication skills
Useful High School Subjects � Industrial Arts (Electricity) � Mathematics, Physics � Computer Basics & English

Don't Buy Dunkin' Donuts IPO: Value Analyst
(Dunkin Donuts IPO article updates an earlier version.)
CANTON, Mass. ( TheStreet) -- Dunkin' Donuts owner Dunkin' Brands is set to begin trading publicly on Wednesday and the IPO could fetch as much as $20 per share, but value investors may do better to look elsewhere for growth, according to one analyst.
"You rarely get a good deal in an IPO and seldom get good value," BGB Securities analyst Sam Yake told TheStreet. "I would rather look where no one else is looking for value."
Yake said at the intended range of $16 to $18 a share, the Dunkin' Donuts IPO is expensive, though he believed the offering will be successful because of the company's completely franchised business model. He conceded that the company 's capital needs "are almost nothing," and that it has a lot of growth potential considering its lack of stores west of the Mississippi River.
"But how much it's worth and how much investors are willing to pay for it" will be up to individual investors, he said. It could be considered cheap for those who view Dunkin' Donuts' growth potential on par with restaurant gems like Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG), Panera Bread (PNRA) or Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD), Yake added, but as a value investor the analyst prefers other names which he says have "superior growth prospects." Chief among them: AFC Enterprises (AFCE). Yake said the operator of Popeye's fast-food chicken restaurants can be bought at "much cheaper multiples than Dunkin' Donuts," though he maintained that he does not absolutely think Dunkin' Donuts is a bad investment at the expected IPO price.

The Niagara University Athletic Department has announced the hiring of Chase Brooks as men's soccer head coach.
"Chase Brooks is a winner who can take the Niagara University men's soccer program to the NCAA Tournament," said Niagara University Director of Athletics Ed McLaughlin. "We were blessed with a huge pool of candidates who believed in the potential of Niagara University and Chase stood out among all of them. He will be a mentor for our student-athletes and provide a stronger foundation so we can compete for MAAC Championships."
Brooks come to Niagara after spending four seasons as the top assistant coach for the Dayton Flyers men's soccer program. Brooks' main focus was on recruiting scheduling, travel and player development, as well as serving as co-director of the UD Soccer Academy.
During his time at Dayton, he helped the Flyers win the 2008 Atlantic 10 Tournament for their first championship in 10 years. Dayton went 15-4-3 overall, earned UD's first-ever berth to the NCAA Men's Soccer Championship and finished No. 1 in the NSCAA/adidas® Middle Atlantic Regional Rankings and No. 19 in the national rankings.
The next season, the Flyers followed that by claiming the 2009 A-10 regular season title with a 14-5-1 overall record. The 2010 Flyers finished with a 7-8-3 overall record while placing two Flyers on NSCAA All-Region Teams.
In 2010, Brooks helped assemble a recruiting class that was ranked 20th in the nation by College Soccer News which included U.S. U-17 Captain and NSCAA All-American Midfielder Marlon Duran.
In his first season at UD, Brooks helped Dayton finish the 2007 season 10-4-5 overall and advance to the opening round of the 2007 Atlantic 10 Men's Soccer Championship. The Flyers had two players selected to the All-Atlantic 10 and NSCAA/adidas® Middle Atlantic Region teams and finished No. 8 in the regional rankings.
Before UD, Brooks served as an assistant coach at Northern Illinois University for two years. As part of the NIU coaching staff, Brooks helped guide the Huskies to a No. 19 national ranking in 2006, the Mid-American Conference tournament championship, the Mid-American regular season championship, and an automatic bid to the NCAA National Tournament. The team finished 15-6-1, which were the most wins in the program's history. Brooks assisted in training the defenders and goalkeepers that ranked No. 1 nationally in team shutouts and goals against average.
Prior to NIU, Brooks worked for his alma mater, Eckerd College, since May 2003. After a four-year letter winning career, he remained at EC as an assistant coach while he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in management in May 2003. By December 2003, he was pressed into duty as the interim head coach until May 2004.
A native of Ft. Myers, Fla., his playing career for the Tritons began in 1999. Brooks served as captain for Eckerd during his last two seasons with his senior year including First-Team All-Sunshine Conference accolades. After his senior year, he was chosen as the recipient of the James R. Harley Award, which is presented to the student-athlete who best represents Eckerd.
During his college career, the three-time Sunshine State Conference Honor Roll athlete also received academic scholarships from Eckerd and the Florida Bright Futures Scholarship program.
A former Florida Youth Soccer Association referee, Brooks also worked Eckerd summer soccer camps and coached the Southside Youth Soccer program in St. Petersburg. His resume also includes serving as an Operations Assistant for the USBL Florida SeaDragons Basketball Team based in Ft. Myers.
Brooks, who has a Master's degree in sports management from NIU, has also earned an Advanced National License from the NSCAA in 2005 after earning an NSCAA National License Distinguished Pass in 2004. He also holds a USSF "B" License.
Brooks and his wife Sarah have a daughter named Kennedy.

Good quality and great price. It runs small for an adult's head. Purchased this for myself for Halloween, and while it is adjustable, it is still a bit too small for an adults head. I am a small person! 5.5/ 115 lbs. Hard to pin into hair, but the quality is good and is fun to have

This is perfect hat for the Halloween season. A very nice hat for a witch.

I love the hat. I love the style, the material, the price and the look.
Unfortunately, it's too small for me, but I've always had that problem with hats. I will have to stretch it a little to wear it, but it's a great hat.

The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore announced on Thursday the passing of Amari, a 20-year-old female leopard who was a long-time favorite among staff and guests.
Amari was euthanized after a battle with mammary cancer, a common disease in felines.
"This is a sad day for The Maryland Zoo and our community," said Don Hutchinson, President & CEO of The Maryland Zoo. "Amari will be missed by all of us, including me. During my walks around the campus, I always made it a point to stop and visit the leopards. She was one of my favorites."
Amari arrived at the zoo in in 1995 as a two-year-old from the Pretoria National Zoological Gardens in South Africa. Both Amari and Hobbes, the zoo's male leopard, were orphaned as cubs when their parents were poached, although the two were not siblings.
The big cats were rescued and raised in Pretoria together, and subsequently both came to the Maryland Zoo. They lived along the boardwalk in Africa, in an exhibit built specifically for leopards due to the presence of an iconic 200-year-old white oak tree, known as the "Leopard Tree." The two produced two female offspring in 1997.
"In the wild, leopards often store their kill in a tree for safekeeping after a hunt. Here at the Zoo, Amari often took her enrichment items into the tree or climbed up to watch the animals on the other side of the boardwalk," commented Mike McClure, general curator at the Zoo. "She was very adept at learning new behaviors, allowing the keepers and veterinarians to provide excellent care for her throughout her life here at the Zoo. Some of my fondest memories are of seeing Amari in her tree and watching her raise her cubs because she came to the Zoo the same year that I did."
"Amari was diagnosed with mammary cancer which had spread to her lymph nodes," stated Dr. Ellen Bronson, chief veterinarian for the Maryland Zoo. "As an elderly cat, many treatment options would have been invasive and would not have significantly improved her prognosis. We have been keeping her level of care consistent and monitoring her for any signs of lethargy or discomfort, adjusting medications for pain as necessary. Unfortunately, it became apparent that her quality of life was in decline and we knew the disease was taking its toll on her."
Amari was the Maryland Zoo's Groundhog Day prognosticator last year. She correctly chose a box decorated with spring images and filled with meat treats to predict an early spring arrival.
Hobbes, 19, continues to reside in the leopard exhibit.

|One of the best in this popular chain, the Novotel Greenwich's lovely position at the heart of Maritime Greenwich is only half its appeal. The restaurant is very good, the staff are alert, efficient and friendly and the rooms are large. Book a room at the back of the hotel for some lovely views of old Greenwich
