I wanted to know your opinion on keeping different types of lovebirds in the same cage. I do not want to breed them. If I introduce them as babies, will there be problems when they become adults?
Also, do they have be in pairs? Could I keep 3 together?
I have read different cage requirements for lovebirds. I plan to allow them out of the cage for an hour everyday. What size would you recommend?

Am I the only person who can't see the point of not using the region.sch.uk address?
You are a school in that region of the uk... I just don't get it?!
I presume that you will point the MX records of the old domain to a mail service with a catch all account with an auto-responder telling people to contact people via the new email domain?

As @plexer did, we went with .org.uk. My line manager initially wanted .com but I did persuade him that the .org.uk made us look more the UK based non-profit charitable organisation that we are. That said we did but .co.uk & .com for the next couple of years at least. We also still have our .sch.uk address, which we will keep for the duration of our stay with the LEA broadband (those days are numbered).

I've got one of those and although charitable and non-profit sometimes apply to my actions, it's just a personal play thing and I expect most of them are the same.I did persuade him that the .org.uk made us look more the UK based non-profit charitable organisation that we are.
I've yet to work on any mail domain changes where I haven't succesfully explained that having your new address as a primary and your old address as an alias/proxy pointed at the same mailbox for a few years is by far the best strategy... old mail addresses have a habit of persisting in other folk's address lists/mailboxes for eons... and one day someone will probably use an old address for something mission critical (which if you talk to users during a 5 min outage is absolutely everything they get sent).which we will keep for the duration of our stay with the LEA broadband (those days are numbered).
As all the 'new' email accounts will be in the same format, i.e. winng@????.county.sch.uk will be winng@????.org.uk, is it possible to set something up to redirect or forward mail?
Schools which have had name changes in this area and run in-house exchange boxes simply add it is as an additional address and when the name change is done they move it to the primary address of the mailbox. I would also add a footer to the email to point out the name and domain change and ask people to update their address books accordingly.
Not relevant for the OP but might be to others ... if you are changing your school name completely then Nominet will only keep the old domain running for a few months (most I have had is 9 months so far) ... and if your name change was also done with a change of DfE number then you will have to get in quickly to make sure Nominet don't remove the domain as part of their housekeeping. Try to keep redirections in place for websites so they know it is live otherwise it may just go.
We moved to a .co.uk domain the day we became an acadamy. Other schools in the area did a similar thing.
e.g. why is it necessary to indicate that the only school in one village is a primary school, but not the one in another village a few miles away?
incidentally, the .region part of a .sch.uk address is tied to your DfE number. We wanted to be a .dorset, as we are in the county, but got told by nominet that we would have to continue being a .bournemouth, as our DfE number ties us to it. We are still going through the motions!
We've had many positive comments about changing to a shorter .co.uk address.
Its much easier for people to understand and write down.
Once your an academy you can use whatever domain you wish.

Got Milk?
I'm not sure how I first heard about David Chang or his Momofuku restaurant group. Since 2004 though, Chang has been building a fine and creative restaurant empire across Manhattan, creating a stir worldwide and publishing a book - a brilliantly no-nonsense book, as it happens. A visit to one of the restaurants was always likely this trip and, when you're travelling with a renowned sugar addict, the restaurant most likely to get visited was always going to be Milk Bar.
As the name suggests, savoury items are probably not going to play a major part on this menu. They're not completely absent, and the Pork Buns were every bit as rich, punchily flavoured and addictive as I'd been led to believe, but the main event here is cake, ice cream, cookies and other guilty pleasures.
Ice creams come as soft whipped swirls of eccentric flavours (with sides of sugary cereals and nuts), cakes come as calorie-packed slabs of sweetness(pictured is the candy bar pie: chocolate crust, caramel, peanut butter nougat, pretzels,) cookies are moist and pliable, drinks are either thick and dairy based or alcoholic with amusing names...
And it's all stupidly delicious. You might not be able to look yourself in the eye the morning after - The Cakewalk of Shame, perhaps? - but for those intense, fleeting moments of sugar rushy pleasures, the guilt is a small price to pay. Here's hoping the Atherton dessert bar presses similar buttons when it finally opens next month.

Burger Joint
There are so many meals to be discussed from the infamous / smug New York trip that it's been quite a difficult decision deciding what goes next. At some point this week I actually need to sit down and write my "proper" article on the trip so I'm saving a lot of the higher end dining for that first (and to trickle down here shortly after). In the meantime, after much deliberation, I decided there can be only one choice: Burger Joint.
Yeah, big flipping surprise. Davey's talking about burgers. Again. There are more to come as well (the exemplary Caprice one, the repeated delights of 5 Napkins, even the delightful little lamb meatball sliders at Locanda Verde) but the stand-out burger experience was to be found in the unlikeliest of settings: behind a curtain in the foyer of the Parker Meridien Hotel on 57th (between 6th and Broadway).
For London eaters, there's an obvious analogy for this experience. You know the Soho Hotel, right? That big foyer, the exquisite design, the bar area, the media types quaffing away, the works of art...? Right. Now imagine #MEATEASY located behind a curtain somewhere off that room. That was exactly the thought Burger Joint inspired.
I was there - at a dash, about 45 minutes before I had to get back to JFK for the flight home - thanks to a tip off from the marvellous Mandy Oser. It was Mandy who'd set up Le Bernardin for us, and kindly hosted us for a couple of beers at her own Hell's Kitchen bar, Ardesia. As with all chats with local foodies, the conversation swiftly turned to other things we should eat and she recommended Burger Joint. She was right. In terms of food, energy, eccentricity, Burger Joint is the sort of place that leaves you beaming and feeling like you very possibly dreamed the whole experience.
The only clue that it exists is a tiny neon sign tucked away at the end of a corridor (or, possibly, at certain times of the day, the enormous queue). Walk towards that and you'll see a handwritten sign on the door frame. Turn right through the door frame and... wow. It's burger bedlam.
A huge counter and grill area takes up the middle of the back wall, surrounded by tables, chairs and a mass of New Yorkers chowing down. Families, couples, friends, random solo tourists (hello) all vied for space in a crammed room that bustled with life. A couple of guys flipped burgers, another assembled the finished sandwiches, a girl took orders while a big poster instructed the customer, in true New York style, not to hesitate. These are your choices. This is how we can cook them. These are the things you can have on it and if you want all of them just say "The Works". This sort of thing probably comes as second nature to New Yorkers used to ordering at deli counters but added a certain amount of pressure to a Brit just trying to enjoy a final cheeseburger. However, I got the order out in reasonable form, handed over a remarkably small sum of money - hamburgers are c. $7, cheeseburgers around $8 - and joined the other queue.
Within a few minutes, I was handed a waxed paper parcel containing my sandwich. With no table available, I balanced it precariously on a ledge to take some (bad) photos, before taking a bite. Like so much of the meat tried in NY - who are clearly on a citywide health kick - it was a little underseasoned but better that way than overseasoned. With a hefty sprinkle of salt, the results were as good as I've had: the crust of the char, the fantastically artificial cheese-like slice melting into the meat, crispy onions giving a sharp boost, very good ripe tomato adding sweetness, while mustard and ketchup and beefy juices oozed into the sturdy, slightly toasted bun. It was over in a matter of seconds. It wasn't a #MEATEASY Chilli Challenge speed, but it certainly didn't take long. As a final experience for this trip, it was great, the perfect encapsulation of the trip as a whole. A little luxury, a lot of great people, and a damned fine, meat-based, handheld snack.

What happens when you blend a bit of nostalgia with a bit of today? You get a collection unlike any other!
This beautiful rug combines modern colors and excellent craftmanship with a timeless design.
Brand: Momeni
Origin: Imported
With its commitment to craftsmanship, Momeni hand-makes every rug, be it a super-luxe Persian carpet or a polypropylene outdoor runner. The family-owned company draws its design inspiration from Eastern and Western textiles like Turkish kilims and Native American blankets, as well as from more everyday sources such as cobblestone streets. And although Momeni weaves the majority of its indoor floor coverings from silk and New Zealand wool, (including its traditional Asian and European patterns), it also creates a few from acrylic (mainly its children's and tween lines). But whatever the material and whatever the use, Momeni rugs reflect a timeless love of texture and artistry.

Forschen an einer neuen Schnittstelle zum Gehirn: Das Berliner Brain-Computer Interface
The Berlin Brain-Computer Interface (BBCI) uses machine learning approaches to extract user-specific patterns from high-dimensional EEG-features optimized for revealing the user's mental state. Classical BCI applications are brain-actuated tools for paralyzed patients such as prostheses or mental text entry. In these applications, the BBCI uses natural motor skills of the users and specifically tailored pattern recognition algorithms for detecting the user's intentions. Beyond rehabilitation, there is a wide range of novel applications in which BCI technology is used to monitor other mental states, even covert ones.

By Greg Borzo
The 2009 Thought You Knew bike pin-up calendar – featuring glamour shots of dolled-up women cyclists from Chicago – was a trial balloon that really took off. It created quite a buzz and the print run of 1,000 calendars sold out within a few months. Orders came from as far away as Sweden and Japan, and bike fans from Milwaukee to Beijing clamored for their own calendar.
This year's pin-up calendar, plus a new superheroes calendar featuring male cyclists in comic-book-inspired get-ups, proves the project has legs. As of mid-November, more than 400 calendars had been pre-ordered and sales were growing rapidly.
Alexis Finch, who created the calendar, formed a limited liability company to produce it and plans to do one or more calendars every year.
"We might create calendars for other cities or even franchise the idea," said the former consultant for GIO Global Intelligence, a firm that analyzes foreign markets and product-line-extension opportunities around the world.
The one thing about this project that will not change – either this year or the next – is Finch's strong commitment to challenging stereotypes of women. "With our chick calendar, we want to say that being sexy and capable is not mutually exclusive," she said. "Cute girls can fix flats."
That's one reason Daphne Karagianis posed as a pin-up. "I'm always in bike mode: cut-offs in the summer, layers in the winter and shoes that look like football cleats year round," said Miss October 2010. "It was fun to be portrayed as girly."
None of the 13 women who posed for the calendar this year are models, and all are avid bikers. The "vital statistics" listed online describe their bikes' mechanics and gearing rather than the women's physiques. To drive the point home that these photos portray serious bikers, each glamorous calendar page includes small black-and-white photos of the "real" women, and information about their relationship with their bike(s) is listed online.
Karagianis, for instance, bikes to work everyday, races at the Ed Rudolph Velodrome in Northbrook and is just getting into cyclo-cross. She dressed up for her glamour photo as a Russian spy in a short black dress and short black trench coat.
Pairing reality shots with each fantasy shot is key, Finch said. "We're not exploiting women's sexuality but rather giving women who bike a way of expressing their femininity."
For the men, the ideals were a bit less lofty. Based on the success of the pin-up calendar, some guys suggested a "dude calendar," said Christopher Dilts, who shot the photos at no charge – as did Michelle Nolan for the pin-up calendar. "At first we talked about taking a hairy-scary approach, with guys eating steaks," Dilts said. "Then we settled on superheroes – not the commercially popular ones but superheroes of their own making."
The whole project is run on a shoestring using volunteer help and borrowed props (except for the working Thompson submachine gun, which had to be rented). Last year, the calendar raised several thousand dollars for the Chicago Women's Health Center; this year it promises to raise much more.
Said Finch: "It's cool to be hot for a cause."

What may be thought of as the first cyborg, is both very dumb—worm-brained—and rather clunky—a little, wheeled robot body. After digitally mapping the neurons of the simplistic C. elegans roundworm, a research team with the OpenWorm project has simulated the worm's brain in a comparatively complicated wheeled robot. The result, as described by the folks at SingularityHUB: the robot behaved like a C. elegans roundworm, in so far as a robot can act like a roundworm, by moving and avoiding objects without being explicitly programmed to do so.
While robots can currently be programmed to perform similar operations, this research is intended to show how, given a digital map of an organism's brain, a robotic body may be made to behave like its organic counterpart. Now, the C. elegans' 302 neurons and 7,000 synapses don't quite compare to a human's roughly 86 billon neurons and 100 trillion synapses, but this research is considered to be a single, small step toward mapping the human brain nonetheless.
All of this on the heels of public figures like Stephen Hawking and Space X's chief executive, Elon Musk, openly discussing their fear of full artificial intelligence. While these fears bear an uncanny resemblance to those at play in the Terminator franchise—was that a neural map of Arnie's brain controlling the Terminator?—they do bring the discussion back to a key question: how and when should technological discovery be tempered by fear?

There was a second-quarter increase in remodeling activity in certain regions of the United States for the first time in more than a year, according to RemodelorMove.com's U.S. Remodeling Activity Report for the second quarter of 2009.
Last week's report, a sampling of U.S. remodeling permits, showed the value of remodeling projects in the U.S. increased in the second quarter over the first quarter of 2009. The size of these projects is the most notable change—the average expenditure by homeowners in the sampled regions for permitted remodeling projects was more than 20% greater than spent in the same quarter of both 2007 and 2008.
The report's authors said, "It is exciting to begin to see consumer confidence returning to remodeling. This increased activity was not surprising, however, as predicted by the Spring 2009 Remodeling Sentiment Report, which reported a 5% increase in the number of homeowners who reported they were likely to remodel in the next 12 months."
The research shows that recent government stimulus packages, rebates for energy efficient remodels, and steep reductions in overall remodeling costs have encouraged many homeowners to begin remodeling projects in the second quarter of 2009 that were previously on hold. These incentives and discounts, as well as price reductions from contractors hoping to keep workers busy, have resulted in a combined reduction in remodeling costs of approximately 20% compared to similar projects in 2006.

This refers to the report "Delhi power crisis gets worse, CM says licences could be cancelled" (FE, February 1). The Kejriwal-led government should understand that cancelling licences is not a solution. As pointed out in your editorial, "Delhi's power crisis" (February 1), Delhi's crisis has started spreading to other states. If the crisis of shortage of pwoer and massive outsanding payment to discoms is not solved in the right manner, the entire sector could collapse. There should be a mechanism to make the tariff match the cost (without any prejudice). States have to do their best to attain self-sufficiency or at least improve their position by resorting to increased power production by from non-conventional sources like solar, wind, etc. Finding the right solution will only give credit to the Delhi (and other) government rather than resorting to populist means.

Subsidies are bad economics
Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi suggested at the AICC session that the people of the country want 12 subsidised gas cylinders a year (Pradhan mantriji, desh ki janata ko chahiye barah gas cylinder). Ever dutiful, Petroleum Minister Veerappa Moily and the Cabinet complied. Raising the subsidised LPG cylinder cap from 9 to 12 is bad economics and bad as well as immoral politics. Moily himself had earlier justified the 9 cylinder cap claiming that it covered 90% of the consumers. The remaining 10% of LPG consumers don�t make what Rahul Gandhi called �desh ki janata�. It is part of the Congress� strategy of building Rahul Gandhi�s image in the faint hope of improving the party�s grim prospects in the coming general elections, all at taxpayer�s cost. It is immoral politics of the Congress to add further a subsidy burden of Rs 5,000 crore to the country�s economy when the new government at the Centre, after the general election, is expected to be a non-UPA one. Putting the economy derailed by the UPA government back on track will be its monumental task.

Look out for bad loans
Apropos of your edit �A stitch in time� (FE, February 1), the public sector banks have to develop appraisal skills to quickly identify NPAs. Nevertheless, centralised reporting and information-sharing regarding NPAs, especially of large accounts, should be implemented immediately. Indeed, PSU banks hold a bigger chunk of NPAs, compared to private banks. PSBs could form a loan syndicate to which requests for large loans will be referred right at

it's got a whole lot more than just a swimming pool. Take a look at this The Doctor's TARDIS - Tardis Data Core, the Doctor Who Wiki

jumpinjamez (21st May 2013)
Caught up with this last night on iPlayer, gone through the last five episodes in the last week as I'd dropped out halfway through the season from the godawful writing. Problems stopped being solved intelligently and instead were getting trite acts of deus ex machina to resolve the plot - e.g. "look at this leaf, and all the futures it holds!" I'm a man who likes a fairy tale sort of plot as much as anyone (if not more), but it stopped being clever.
However, having now seen the last episode, all I can really say is
Probably one of the best actors they could have gotten in for the role, particularly with the storyline of regret they seem to have lined up.
For my money: he's a regen between McGann/Ecclestone or just an older McGann, and is indeed the incarnation who pulled the trigger on the whole Time War thing. I don't think he's the pre-Hartnell incarnation that took the TARDIS because we saw Hartnell taking it this week, and they've been dropping enough hints about the Time War again recently (with the big book and all).
I am also sick of the sonic screwdriver - fine if all it was used for was opening doors quickly, but it is used for everything. Some writers on the series are better than others, but some use it to do bloody everything.
It occurs to me that similar fun could be had with Doctor Who as can be had with Harry Potter: change every mention of "sonic screwdriver" to "wang" and wait for hilarity to ensue.

Article Author, NYT Culture Editor Address Shonda Rhimes Outcry
Sometimes, it's all about the article updates.
Adding to a post this morning about the furor surrounding New York Times TV critic Alessandra Stanley's weekend piece on Shonda Rhimes' new ABC-TV program How To Get Away With Murder, public editor Margaret Sullivan has shared post-publication feedback from culture editor Danielle Mattoon and author Stanley.
Let's start with Mattoon's remarks. Rhetorical is all fine and dandy, but next time, she and her fellow NYT editors may want to make sure a question mark (or some other equivalent indicator) punctuates this approach. As written, the first-paragraph intent was not clear enough:
"Alessandra used a rhetorical device to begin her essay," Mattoon said, "and because the piece was so largely positive, we as editors weren't sensitive enough to the language being used…"
She told me that multiple editors — at least three — read the article in advance but that none of them raised any objections or questioned the elements of the article that have been criticized.

By Debra:
My passion has always been for babies, children and young families. Having three beautiful children and being fully committed to building our family helped me experience the best life has to offer, despite the reality of disappointments or set backs. Each path of my work as a Childbirth and Parent Educator, Assistant Midwife, Journalist covering family issues, and Children's Minister, has helped hone my abilities and expand my education to help other families in this precious time of the childbearing years.
I earned my BA in Journalism and have spent many years writing for area newspapers, a nationally distributed family magazine, and the Dixon Patch online newspaper. I bought Tots Trade Center in Davis in 1997 so I could enjoy my last child to the fullest extent while working and found a new business pleasure: retail.
By running a children's resale boutique professionally, I strive for Nana and Company to validate that purchasing previously owned merchandise is a respectable, responsible, and prudent shopping choice. Babies and children simply grow too fast to wear out valuable clothing or costly equipment. While my personal belief is that babies are really very simple when we take the time to understand them, we live in a very rushed society. When the baby cries, that swing or vibrating cradle may become a real necessity.
For additional assistance in the family building process, our childbirth and parenting classes will positively impact lives for many years to come. Friendships will be built that will provide support and encouragement from new friends that share similar beliefs or have similar lifestyle choices. More mature women have already helped to set up the store and its resources–and will continue to play an active role in teaching younger women about building strong families. We welcome and encourage fathers to be vital in these classes as well.
My husband, children, and customers have been an asset to my personal growth and constant support in this endeavor and I am forever grateful.

loved the fit (it was perfect). Washed and dried it before putting it on and didn't have to iron it whatsoever. Will buy more.
As others have said, this is 100% Egyptian cotton and not microfiber. Egyptian cotton is my preference, so this is a great value for the price and free shipping to boot! I ordered the queen size in taupe. The color matches our IKEA duvet set perfectly and really puts the finishing touches on our bed.
The fabric is soft but light and the colors were right on as described. Unfortunately, both units I purchased were completely wrinkled and took about 1.5 hours (EACH!) to iron out. . . in the past, bedskirts I have purchased were pretty much ready to put on.
I purchased this bedskirt to use with a bedspread I also bought thru Overstocks. They look well together, and the quality is very nice for the price. Nice change for our bedroom.
Fair at best. I wish the cotton fabric was a bit heavier. The length is great but it is a bit flimsy.
Nothing really special. It's ok. Nice blue color. Was little long for my bed.
The bedskirts arrived in dirty packaging and e bedskirts and dirt marks on the inside of packaging. Also quality of bedskirts are low grade. I would not recommend these
Color was exactly as pictured. Easy to iron and put on bed. Fit great!
color was a perfect match for what I needed for a quilt I ordered
Fit my kingsize bed perfectly and the color was beautiful.

Two More Giant Whirlpools Have Formed In The AtlanticSubmitted by dailypauler on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 12:05
April 13, 2011 – SAO PAULO – U.S. scientists discovered two giant whirlpools in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Guyana and Suriname. It became a sensational discovery.....

What a wonderful phenomenon to observe. They have to get out there with a live feed. Too bad it did not happen off the coast of Japan, could of really cleaned things up around there.
Could be a valuable new power source.

"Sorry Alvin, but this time, the picture on top of this article is too dramatic and unreal for what it is. I saw graphics about it and it doesn't even look as a whirlpool, it's a very subtle ocean current running clockwise in the ocean. It would be like taking a picture of a Tsunami when talking about higher tides."
And never forget, "Humans, despite our artistic pretensions, our sophistication and many accomplishments, owe the fact of our existence to a six-inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains."
party pooper.
and I was all set to have a doom-gasm.
to put a damper on your fun, but just as positive energy can create positive things, negative energy, born out of fear and hate, can create a negative reality, one in which you can be controlled. That is why the controlled mass media broadcast stories of fear, intimidation, terrorism, war and crime, and barely mention positive ones, so that the lower vibrations of hate and fear can create the reality of control and dominance of the Elite over the masses. The more fear the masses have, the more Draconian laws can be passed and enforced, and the more liberties can be suppressed.

Did you know it was National Magic Week? Please cast thoughts of David Blaine hanging upside-down from your mind and return to the mystical days of illusionists in thick capes, beautiful assistants that vanish in mid-air and, almost forgotten, the rustic old-time magic store, with shelves of mysterious accessories for the amateur conjurer.
New York City had many famous magic stores, but perhaps none more beloved than Flosso-Hornmann Magic or, as it was known when it opened in 1872 (although the official website gives a date of 1875), Martinka & Company. From then until the year 2000, when it was sold by proprietor Jackie Flosso to a company who turns it into an Internet business, it was the epicenter for Manhattan magic lovers.
German brothers Francis and Antonio Martinka brought over their successful "conjuring and toy shop" as immigrants to the New York melting pot in the 1870s, opening Martinka & Company just north of Chelsea on Sixth Avenue. The shop's fabulous slogan?
"The world wants to be deceived, let it be deceived."
The shop featured mechanical monkeys and "automatons" that played chess and the shelves were loaded with camp items as "The Mephisto or Satyr's Head Trick," "The Wonderful Cigarette Paper Trick," and "The Mystic Barrel of Salt."
Behind the displays of magical wares however was a backroom "Palace of Mystery," where budding young magicians would try their hand at more elaborate tricks. Soon, this performance hall would host the city's best displays of magic. And it was here, in 1902, when the Society of American Magicians was formed, an organization which would feature the biggest names in illusion and trickery.
And if you were looking for a good fright here, for a short time, the shop also kept a live lion named Monty. Its owner, the magician known as Carter the Great, had purchased the shop from the Martinka family and kept his own king of the beast on hand for special tricks.
The shop was later owned by a far more acclaimed New York magician Harry Houdini, a friend of the Martinkas who decorated the entrance with a gigantic bust of himself.
In 1939 the store was purchased by Brooklynite Al Flosso (a theatrical stage name). He had bought magic tricks there as a child and brought his stagecraft to the aging store, keeping it in delightful state of clutter as not to "disturb Houdini's dust." According to an interesting bio page on Flosso, he was "constantly repairing, soldering, building and tinkering with equipment and illusions. Customers could bring in their favorite deck of cards, and, for a nominal fee, have it made into a stripper or Svengali deck. He custom-painted thumb tips to match his customers' skin tone...."
When he died in 1976, his son Jackie took over the shop (and the last name), moving it up to 34th Street and keeping it stocked with magical tools and gags until finally selling it in 2000.
You can visit the website and shop for vintage magic memorabilia, posters and, yes, powerful tricks to amaze your friends!

Mayor Declares UT Lady Vols Basketball Team Day
April 9, 2008
- On Wednesday night April 9th, Mayor Haslam, local officials, the UT band, citizens of Knoxville and Lady Vol fans from around the area attended a welcome home celebration for the National Champions Tennessee Lady Vols Basketball Team at the Thompson Boling-Arena.
The Lady Vols won the NCAA National Championship on Tuesday, April 8th and a hard fought match with Stanford University with a score of 64-48.
Throngs of orange-clad fans, Smokey, and UT Cheerleaders cheered as the Lady Vols entered the building.
Mayor Haslam presented Coach Pat Summitt and her team a proclamation declaring the day
UT Lady Vols Basketball Team Day
and encourage all citizens to join in the observance.
The proclamation read as follows:
On Behalf Of The People Of
By His Honor The Mayor
To Publicly Recognize
The University of Tennessee Lady Volunteers Basketball Team
The 2007-2008 Lady Volunteers have added yet another glorious chapter to the history of UT Women's Basketball by winning the 2008 NCAA Division I National Championship on April 8, 2008 in Tampa, Florida; and
By winning back-to-back national championships the Lady Vols have now won an unprecedented eight NCAA Women's Basketball titles since 1987 in addition to appearing in 18 NCAA Final Fours and 13 NCAA National Championship games since 1982; and
The Lady Volunteers are led by Coach Pat Summitt who has coached her teams to so many great victories while teaching her players lessons that will benefit them throughout their lives and she is ably supported by Assistant Coaches Holly Warlick, Nikki Caldwell and Dean Lockwood; and
The 2007-2008 Lady Vols Basketball team played not only with skill but also with great heart during the 2008 NCAA Women's Basketball tournament battling through an injury to Candace Parker in another memorable title run where all the players stepped up and won as a team including a last second win over LSU before overwhelming Stanford 64-48 in the national championship game; and
The players on the UT Lady Volunteers Basketball team are champions not only on the court but also in the classroom, in the community, in life, and most importantly, in our hearts. We are proud that the University of Tennessee and this great team are located in Knoxville.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Bill Haslam, Mayor of the City of Knoxville, Tennessee, do hereby proclaim April 9, 2008 to be:
UT Lady Vols Basketball Team Day in our city and urge all citizens to join in this observance.
Given under my hand and affixed with the Seal of the City of Knoxville, Tennessee, This Ninth Day of April, 2008

Thank you. This was a welcome addition to my spiritual practice. I really appreciate it.
Looking forward to a fascinating experience!
Thank you for putting together, and offering this attractive Soulseeds Inner Peace e-Retreat- free offering
I completed the section in the billing area but was left with a feeling that my personal information did not get through in order to sign me up for the retreat.
It simply ended with the inference that there was no transaction since there was no billing.
I do so hope to be included in the retreat – Kindly let me know if I am signed on.
Rev Terry Weller
ABBA Ministries of Canada, Member of the Canadian Progressive Christians.
Looking forward to starting program.
I registered for the e-retreat on inner peace on 21 March and was welcomed to Soulseeds but so far have had no further emails. Am I too impatient? I was really looking forward to any offerings from you to promote inner peace and to help my ongoing spiritual development.

Travel to Spain with LFCC
News Release

Lord Fairfax Community College's (LFCC) Study Abroad Program is offering a trip to Salamanca, Spain. LFCC students and community residents will have the opportunity to travel and study from June 2-27, 2014.
Students will earn four academic credits in Spanish 101 "Beginning Spanish" or Spanish 195 "Spanish for Health Professionals."
Community residents may also enroll. Spanish 195 – "Spanish for Health Professionals" was selected as a course option because of the high demand for basic Spanish skills in the medical field.
LFCC Professor Paula Bowen, a resident of Warrenton, VA, will accompany the student group. Bowen has been a Spanish professor at LFCC for 5 years, and previously taught at Wakefield School and Northern Virginia Community College.
The Mester Language School in Salamanca was selected for instruction because it gives international students the opportunity to feel, enjoy and play an active part in the unique Spanish way of life that is significantly different from their own. "I chose Salamanca because it is a vibrant, small city that is easy to explore and perhaps less intimidating for first-time travelers. The Mester Language School has an excellent reputation," explains Bowen.
In addition to completing a semester's worth of introductory Spanish language in one month's time, students will participate in many excursions and local activities. They will live with a host family and take classes in Spanish life and culture.
The cost for the entire June trip – including airfare, room and board, academic credit, various excursions, and travel insurance– is $4,500. The LFCC Foundation has received a generous donation from Mark and Karin Ohrstrom to fund one study abroad scholarship for a currently enrolled LFCC student with financial need.
According to Liv Heggoy, the Executive Director of the LFCC Foundation: "The opportunity to study in another country is an important and often life changing experience. I am grateful for Mr. and Mrs. Ohrstrom's support of LFCC's study abroad program. It will be really exciting to hear about the scholarship recipient's experience in Spain."
The deadline to enroll is February 28, 2014. For more information, please visit http://www.lfcc.edu/?promoid=10297. Interested students may also contact Professor Bowen at email@example.com/540-868-7166.

West Bromwich Albion midfielder James Morrison could play again this season after the club revealed his knee injury is not as bad as they first feared.
The 25-year-old Scot was carried off towards the end of the club's 3-1 defeat against Newcastle United in the Barclays Premier League on Sunday.
Morrison suffered a knee ligament injury, but the prognosis is far better than the Baggies thought it might be at the time.
"If all goes to plan, James should be able to play again this season"
- Mark Gillett
A statement on the club's official website said: "Scans have revealed the Scotland international injured a medial ligament in his left knee against Newcastle - not the more problematic cruciate ligament.
"Morrison, who was carried off in the 82nd minute of the 3-1 defeat, has already begun his rehab at the club's training ground."
The club's head of medical services, Mark Gillett, added: "We've had positive news on James.
"We came to the conclusion on Sunday that it would more likely be a medial ligament issue, rather than a cruciate one, but you can't be 100% sure until the swelling has receded and you get the injury scanned.
"The outcome means that his rehab period will be more a case of weeks than months and, if all goes to plan, he should be able to play again this season."
Morrison has played in 28 of the club's 30 Barclays Premier League matches this season, scoring four times in the process.
Baggies defender Liam Ridgewell admits losing Morrison for the next few weeks is a blow to their hopes of finishing in the top half of the top.
"Mozza is a good player and it was disappointing to see him go down like that, especially if it means he's going to be missing for a few weeks," said Ridgewell.
"He's a big player for the team."

In this era, bloggers & online-socialites like me, choke without internet at home & I'm almost dying for it's been three days that I've survived without internet at home. So naturally I wanted to vent out my frustration on BSNL (surprisingly somebody has written this: BSNL: India's Most Valuable Company.(Brief Article): An article from: India Telecom), so I call up 1504, BSNL broadband helpline.
After choosing the language & services (thankfully it was just 2 options), the voice said, "Please press 9 to speak to an operator" and I did so. For next 19 minutes 23 seconds (not a second exaggerated) my ear-drum was hit repetitively, in three different languages, with, "You are in queue, please wait. BSNL is offering special gaming service to its broandband customers at an affordable price, it's a collection of entertaining and educative games. For free 15 days trial, please logon to www.bsnl.co.in".
Then this very timid sounding bloke answers the call:
TSB: Good evening, thank you for calling BSNL. How may I help you?
Sac: I'm unable to connect to internet from past two days.
TSB: What operating system do you use sir?
Sac: Mac OS X
TSB: Apple Mac OS sir?
Sac: Yeah (Hell who else makes Mac OS???)
TSB: Which computer do you use sir?
Sac: "APPLE" Macbook Pro
TSB: Sir please open Internet explorer and type 192.168...
Sac: Boss I've done all that & the troubleshooting results say blah blah blah blah (By the way Internet explorer on Mac OS sounded interesting. Any new joint ventures of Jobs & Gates?)
Beeep Beep!!!
Yeah! Call drops are quite common from fixed lines of BSNL!!! Perseverance pays when dealing with BSNL!
I dialed again...
It maybe hard for you to believe, that stupid gaming message kept pounding my ears for about 24 minutes 7 seconds. I felt like strangling that lady but it was a recorded voice unfortunately. Yet another timid sounding bloke picked up:
TSB: Good evening, blah blah blah
Sac: Man you first note down my name and number, have the courtesy to call back in case the call drops. You've got such pathetic systems that I connect after bearing with that 20min of useless gaming crap and the call disconnect in like 2 min. So please bear in mind that if it happens this time, be kind enough to call me back.
TSB: Sure sir. What can I do for you?
Sac: Listen, I neither want to open Internet explorer on my Mac OS X nor want to answer your typical FAQs you guys ask again. I don't have internet connection for 3 days now. The troubleshooting results say "FAIL" on every goddamn test it did. (I was a bit mean here, wasn't I?)
TSB: Yes sir, PPP server is down.
Sac: I called you guys yesterday, you said that PPP server was down and should be fixed by midnight. Today again you give me the same excuse. I promptly pay 1300 bucks every month & I've got many tasks to finish which I can't without internet.
TSB: Yes sir, sorry sir, but server is down.
Sac: Can I speak to your superior, your boss or somebody there? (They don't give a damn to such articles I guess: BSNL -- New Challenges and Milestones Ahead.(Brief Article): An article from: India Telecom)
TSB: Please be online sir.
After few seconds...thank God he didn't put the gaming promo crap again.
TSB: Thanks for being online sir, I've logged a complaint. Please call the exchange and give this complaint number, they'll give you an alternative connection.
Sac: What's the exchange number?
Sac: OK Thanks!
--click --
Dial 1500
Same set of options to choose from, thankfully that gaming promo wasn't here. A very serious recorded voice said "All are agents are busy. Please wait". After about 6 min 32sec an elderly lady answered the call & I conversed in Kannada.
Sac: Hello madam, I don't have internet for three days...blah blah...
EL: Saar server down ide saar eega. Nothing could be done, it'll be OK in two hours
Sac: Nodi madam, I have lot of work to do for which I need internet. I've logged a complaint with the complaint ID blah blah. They asked me call this number to get an alternative connection.
EL: Illa saar, alternative connection ella yenu illa.
Sac: Madam but the told me that you'll give me an alternative connection...
EL: Saar neev vond kelsa maadi, call up 1504 and tell them
Sac: Madam neev yen table tennis aadta idira? I call up 1504 they ask me to call 1500 & I call up 1500 you ask me to call 1504! (Now this is service excellence of BSNL!)
EL: Illa saar, they just want to escape they just put the ball in our court (What did you do just now dear m'aam?)
Sac: Can you give me contact of some officer?
EL: Yes sir sure, call up our Area manager on this number tomorrow. Let him also realize! (These kinda statements can come out of only employees of PSU)
Sac: OK madam thank you...so surea alternative connection yenu sigalla anta?
EL: Sure sir, haagenu illa.
Sac: Thank you madam
After all this haggling & fighting the internet is still down. Will try my luck with the area manager & update.

One month ago, Azwaj found four bundle of kittens joy on his way to the shop downstairs. Unfortunately three of them passed on one after another that same week which caused both A and me such grief and that left me with puffy eyes for almost a week
One of them, we named him Baby Mir (short for Miracle) survived through a bad eye infection and an abscess that burst under his right ear and is now thriving at 200grams. He is a very well behaved boy and is not fussy at all unless he is hungry (we all do right?.. lol).
Baby Mir is growing up so fast and we are enjoying each stage of his growth. From a dormant little thing, he is now walking albeit shakingly (we can't help but laugh at him) and letting us know what he likes and what he doesn't like. He loves sleeping under the blanket with daddy, listening to daddy playing the guitar and watching the mouse move as daddy checked out guitar centre, and he loves snuggling with me after a full bottle feed. Ahh such joy.
Here's a picture of Baby Mir with the bottle (thanks GP!)
and here's one from today just after he woke up from his very long sleep.

.....the inaugural annual PALM BEACH JAZZFEST will be held at the prestigious MEYER AMPHITHEATER located at the beautiful downtown West Palm Beach Waterfront on Saturday Nov 21st, 2015. PALM BEACH JAZZFEST will be held the weekend before Thanksgiving, end of November every year at MEYER AMPHITHEATER as the FALL Music and Arts Festival for the City of WEST PALM BEACH; much as SUNFEST is the SUMMER Music and Arts Festival for the City every year. PALM BEACH JAZZFEST will be distinctly different from the SUNFEST concept in many exciting ways.
This will be an ALL DAY Musical Event, from 11AM to 11PM, planned to include a variety of Musical Acts, starting out featuring some of the best upcoming local South Florida Jazz musicians. Palm Beach Jazzfest is committed to supporting our local young musicians, as they develop their talents, and start their careers. We will have national acts throughout the day, with a headline act to close the show. We additionally plan to have a renowned Comedienne as an Opening Act and MC throughout the show; along with an exciting ART EXHIBITION; a selection of quality artists with their creations for sale on display. The Food and Beverage services will be more upscale in nature, featuring a selection of established local restaurants offering some of their favorite creations to add some local Palm Beach flavor to our event. Beverage services will be provided throughout the venue from local suppliers and producers of their products. We plan to feature the finest, professional, and efficient wait staff from local establishments. Currently, Palm Beach Jazzfest is evaluating local charities to make a yearly donation to a worthy Palm Beach County based organization that supports children with special needs.
PALM BEACH JAZZFEST is going to attract a distinctively unique range of JAZZ Music Patrons from our local community; and we have carefully designed our Ticketing Options to accommodate the needs of all those that wish to attend. From those that are in the public eye, such as successful business moguls, professional athletes, musicians, actors, authors, media personalities, philanthropists and such; to the equally important Music Aficionado who more easily navigates through a public setting, we have the Seating Arrangements and Accommodations that you need. To offer each and every resident of our community an option to comfortably, securely, and conveniently attend PALM BEACH JAZZFEST, we will be offering three different ticket options for your consideration. The proximity to the stage, the nature of the amenities included with each type of Ticket such as the VIP PLUS fenced in Private Reserved Table Seating Area, or VIP Reserved Seating, or General Admission Lawn Seating, Waitress Service, Rest Room Facilities; and with Police and Private Security Guards, for our high profile guests, Private Rear or Main Entrance, VIP PLUS Entrance, Valet Service, Private Parking Lot, Cocktail Waitress Service, and Luxury Air Conditioned Rest Room Facilities, will vary with each ticket option, as explained below.
(1) VIP PLUS Ticket RESERVED TABLE - The BEST SEATS, your private table with linen table cloth for 2-8 guests typically, RIGHT IN FRONT of STAGE. High Security details include a VIP Private fenced in area with WPB Police, Uniformed Security Guards, and Undercover Security so that our hi-profile patrons and those who desire a luxurious music festival experience can be assured of their privacy, security, and full amenities. Private Rear Amphitheater Entrance with Police and Uniformed Security Guards for drop off/ pick up; and Valet Service to our rear adjacent private parking lot. Waitress Service for Food and Beverages from Local Palm Beach and West Palm Beach Restaurants will be provided as well. Luxury Air Conditioned Rest Rooms with attendants are adjacent to the VIP Plus seating area. This secure totally fenced in area allows for ease of entrance and exit, and access to your private table. Table mingling is not allowed in VIP PLUS area, and will be enforced assuring your utmost privacy, and an uninterrupted festival experience. Special requests may be approved by Security. Of course there is access to the entire festival grounds to visit the Art Exhibitors, Sponsorship Tents, Restaurant Food and Beverage Vendors, and to stretch your legs between acts.
(2) VIP Ticket Reserved Seating - 2nd Section back, fenced in with security, for traditional assigned seating with four sections of rows with numbered seats. Self service for Food and Beverages, by leaving the VIP Area, as well as visiting the Art Exhibitors and Sponsorship Tents. Rest room facilities are within the VIP area and are the existing air conditioned amphitheater rest rooms on site. Your ticket and a VIP wristband will assure easy access re-entry into the VIP section and back to your seat.
(3) General Admission Lawn Seating - Behind the first two fenced in VIP sections will be open areas for traditional lawn seating. Open movement throughout for food, beverages, a visit to the Art Exhibitors, Sponsorship Tents, or the Portable Public Rest Rooms positioned throughout the venue for your convenience. An upgrade to a Luxury Air Conditioned Rest Room Facility is planned for additional cost and convenience.
Palm Beach Jazzfest has been planned to bring a much needed annual JAZZ FESTIVAL to our community, bringing a original American musical art form to Meyer Amphitheater each and every year. We continue to search out investors and partners, who are Advocates for the Arts, and would like to be responsible for helping start this inaugural event. Investor and Partnership arrangements, on becoming one of our Founding Fathers, can be discussed by contacting us. The Palm Beach area deserves a quality Jazz Festival every year, that is worthy of our name. This Jazz event will expand the long tradition of Music and Art Exhibits on our waterfront area.....

Revenge? Shea needs none
Marti Shea is all smiles after winning the Newton's Revenge Bicycle Hillclimb on Mount Washington, despite a broken chain in the final yards. (JOHN STIFLER)
Newton's RevengeWhat: 7.6-mile bicycle race
When: Saturday, 8:40 a.m.
Where: Mount Washington Auto Road, Gorham
Coaching and bicycle tour guiding duties in Europe kept Shea away from the Mount Washington races in 2013. Shea entered both races this year and she's looking to add more titles to her impressive resume.
"The strategy is different for everyone," she said. "Some people like to go on a steady pace and some want to go harder. There are even some who start easy through the first half of the race and suddenly go harder in the second half. There's no single right answer to what strategy works the best."
"I mean you can't stop peddling just to catch your breathe," she said. "If you break your stride or fall off your bike, you're in trouble if your goal is to win the race."
"When I recorded that 63:14 time, I celebrated early," she said. "I just didn't feel like pushing myself that day to the finish line. So as long as it's not a windy day — which is tough to compete against because it can affect your time and power — I really believe I can record a faster time. For me, it's improving each year and I never set limitations on myself. I have to go over the edge if I want a faster time. That's just the way I am."
"I'm proud of it because I work hard at it. One year, I was a couple of hundred yards away from winning the race when my bike chain broke. I literally ran to the finish line with my bike and won the race."
"It's a picture of him with his arms over his head celebrating the moment, it's really priceless," said Shea. "They're coming to support me Saturday and that really means a lot. I love my parents and having them there just makes me want to win the race more for them and my entire family."
