"Sometimes life events push you beyond your known capabilities. I am blessed to have had this happen to me more than a few times in my life; from the simplest academic endeavors, a new relationship, the birth of a child, or a total change of routines and culture ... events can take your comfortable norm, dump it out like a duffle-bag, mix it up and shuffle it around, and then pack it up again and move it to an entirely different location ...
.... The resulting re-organization and re-prioritizing (and if you are very, very lucky) the subsequent inspired explosion of creativity, puts a new spin on your life and gives new meaning to the originating event."
This has happened to me in a million ways since moving to France. I have grown, I have explored, and I have been challenged. The result of all of this has been doing things I only 'played-at' before...... cooking and recipe creating, writing (more than ever!), DIY projects all over my home, searching for and selling French vintage and antiques on the web and photography.....
at a new level.... (and not necessarily in that order!)
One of the very, very best out-comes of all of this, is the opportunity to share it with you!
On rare occasions, I do take the advice of others ... really. I do. So after more than a few friends and clients suggested that I make my photography available for sale as fine-art photographic prints -- I finally listened.
I am so excited to announce that I will be selling limited edition fine-art photography of images taken all around France on my Etsy shop! I hope you enjoy seeing the images, and if you love them, consider having one or two hanging in your home.
Images are printed on high-quality photo paper and are available in any size. I am initially listing them as 8 x 12 inches. All images are signed and dated on the back and of course will have the copyright watermark removed. They are sent First Class La Poste in a rigid envelope and are ready for framing! I welcome custom size and quantity requests!
I will be slowly adding more to the shop! So please take a look and let me know what you think!
Happy Friday!
What an incredible week!
Thanks for being a part of it mes amis!

TechCrunch is reporting LinkedIn will allow users to add photos as of this Friday. As Mike Butcher suggests, the move by LinkedIn is likely in response to the growing number of people using Facebook for business networking.
Is this too little, too late for LinkedIn?
While I have a LinkedIn account–and like the service–since joining Facebook I've found myself using it for business instead of LinkedIn. I'm not sure I'd go back to LinkedIn.
What about you, which do you prefer for business networking?

Build time and costs
I know you can edit the build times and costs for the AI in the Difficultyadjustments.xml by editing the Galactic_Build_Time_Multiplier and so on but is there a way to do all of that for the player as well instead of just the AI in some other XML file or do I have to edit each unit's XML individually?

Son of Hollywood Reporter Founder Apologizes for Dad's Support of Blacklist
Because of the Thanksgiving holiday, The Hollywood Reporter has put to bed a little earlier than usual the November 30 edition of its weekly print magazine. And what an edition it is.
To go along with a cover story by Gary Baum and Daniel Miller about the involvement of the magazine's original publisher Billy Wilkerson beginning in 1946 with the Hollywood Blacklist, there is a heartfelt essay from Wilkerson's son (pictured). Together, these articles mark the first time THR has publicly acknowledged its role in one of Hollywood's saddest chapters. Here's how W.R. Wilkerson III ends his piece:
On the eve of this dark 65th anniversary, I feel an apology is necessary. It's possible, had my father lived long enough, that he would have apologized for creating something that devastated so many careers. On behalf of my family, and particularly my late father, I wish to convey my sincerest apologies and deepest regrets to those who were victimized by this unfortunate incident.

This gumbo was delicious. Try to use the freshest veggies you can find and the best quality bacon as well; it really will make a difference. Also, be sure that your potatoes are all roughly the same size to ensure even cooking. I cooked my roux using butter instead of veg oil and it made no difference. Easy recipe and perfect for a cold/ rainy day.... definitely will be making again!

Hi there,
I'm a total new kid on the PHP & MySQl scene – so I'm looking for a totally clear and concise book for PHP & MySQL beginners.
I was tempted to get "PHP & MySQL for Dummies"… but it was published in 2005 – a little old don't you think?
So does anyone know of (or have written) some really good up to date books on this?
I've got this
it's good and easy to understand, However, it is older than the dummies one. Published in 2004.

First Baptist Church
Friday, December 19, 2014
to know Christ and make him known
3014 Bus. Hwy 141
Welcome to First Baptist Church!
Our desire is to know Christ and make him known in Northeastern, WI and around the world.
First Baptist is located in the small community of Pound, WI. Originally known as the Polish Baptist Church, it was, for a time, the largest Polish Baptist congregation in the United States. In 1948 the church voted to change the language to English and the name to First Baptist Church.
Today, First Baptist is a thriving congregation of the redeemed who worship our Savior, evangelize the lost and serve our community as the hands and feet of Christ.

A passion for fashion, pardon the cliche, started at a young age for Romanian born designer Lorena Sarbu. While dressing her dolls at a young age she imagined vibrant colors and regal dresses that would later go on to comprise her eponymous collection. A rising New York name and Hollywood red carpet label, Sarbu saw her dreams to fruition by eventually moving to the States and studying at the International Academy of Design & Technology in Chicago.
However, it was in New York where she eventually launched her company and began designing a collection of sexy, sophisticated and modern evening wear that is now seen on A-list celebrities at every major industry event. Ms. Sarbu was nice enough to sit down with The Icon Concierge and give us an exclusive interview on how she got started, her dream client and what she would be doing if she weren't a designer.
ICON: Tell our readers how you got started as a designer.
LS: Fashion has always been my passion. I started making clothes for my dolls and friends and was inspired and taught by my Romanian great-grandmother. I moved to Chicago from Romania and studied Fashion and Business Merchandising. I opened two stores acted as a buyer for them before I launched my first collection in NY!
ICON: You're originally from Europe, how does that influence your design aesthetic?
LS: Being from Europe influences my style a lot. The collection reflects a European sensibility; it's feminine yet edgy. Plus, by traveling I get a lot of inspiration. Europe is wonderful. Prague is an exceptionally inspirational city for me, and is one of my favorite places to visit. I buy a lot of art there.
ICON: What type of woman wears Lorena Sarbu designs?
LS: The type of woman who wears my dresses is not one who is afraid of being noticed, in fact, she wants to stand out and make a statement. She is feminine, yet edgy. She is a world traveler and needs a dress for each occasion. She is the type of woman who is always sending a message and exudes timeless elegance.
ICON: Who is your dream celebrity client?
LS: My dream celebrity clients would be Angelina Jolie, Diane Kruger and Penelope Cruz.
ICON: If you weren't a designer what else would you be doing?
LS: If I weren't a fashion designer, I would be a therapist.

For the Bengals, the hits keep coming.
Outside linebacker Thomas Howard will be placed on injured-reserve after tearing his ACL in practice Thursday. The Bengals will likely start Dan Skuta in his place and will re-sign Roddrick Muckelroy, who was cut on at the end of the preseason.
In losing Howard the Bengals lose a fast, three-down linebacker who proved to be a smart free-agent signing in 2011 and was a key piece of the 2012 defense, too.
Losing Howard is just one of those things that doesn't bode well for the Bengals. The season's not teetering yet — they should be 1-1 by the end of Sunday — but this loss is just one of those bad signs. It's a loss for defensive speed, leadership and playmaking ability. It forces Skuta, a rising star as a special teams guy, into a new role, and there's a chain reaction with other moves elsewhere.
Maybe this will lead to Vontaze Burfict, eventually, getting more run. Maybe Rey Maualuga and Manny Lawson — and Skuta — will answer the call and deliver.
Losing Howard is a very tough blow.

Uprooting 5 Nefarious Gardening Myths
Thanks to the Internet, gardening myths have gone from old wives' tales to widespread urban legends. A gardener from the New York Botanical Garden helps us weed out the fiction.
By Jennifer Nalewicki
Myth 3: You Must have Both Male and Female Trees in Order for Them to Bear Fruit
Call this a half-myth. It's true that some fruit trees require the male and female of the species to be planted in close proximity to one another in the garden to produce fruit. These trees are called dioecious (which means two houses). An example would be the ginkgo tree. "If you plant a male ginkgo tree by a bus stop you are fine, but if you plant a female, you will end up stepping on the female fruits, and they smell rancid," Uyterhoeven says. However, there are self-pollinating trees that provide their own pollen and fertilize themselves, such as peach trees and certain types of apricot trees.

St-Malo Festival of Friends
The annual St-Malo Festival of Friends offers a spectacular celebration of culture, cuisine and tradition. Ignore the cold and snow and get out and celebrate all that St-Malo Provincial Park has to offer in the winter. The park will be bursting with culinary experiences, fantastic regional cultural entertainment and wonderful winter family activities. Beat the cold and make the St-Malo Festival of Friends a family tradition.
Since February 2008, a Friends Winter Festival is held during the Louis Riel long weekend to celebrate this "Joie de Vivre".
In February 2008, the Friends of the St-Malo Provincial Park became partners with Festival du Voyageur. Mavis Tailleu met with the board to review strategy for a 4 season park. An idea was to start a winter festival to make a large impression. The following year Friends of the St-Malo Park negotiated a partnership agreement with Festival du Voyageur. This partnership helped to promote the "Festival" Joie de Vivre in the rural french community of St-Malo and the surrounding region.
The purpose of the St-Malo Festival of Friends is to spread the Joie de Vivre and re-live the culture of the era. It is a way of promoting french/bilingual artists and make the bilingual aspect of the Province a major economic force and an asset of our province. The Friends of the St-Malo Park have the opportunity to promote the park's winter activities such as cross country skiing, tobagganing, skating and snowshoeing.

However, unlike the previous Dungeon Hunter titles, which were indefinitely considered to be RPGs (that's Role Playing Games), this new installation has strayed away from the genre, adopting an arena mode that's based on Gameloft's oft-critiqued "freemium" model of publishing iOS applications.

"thanks link, you're the hero of hyruleA way of starting a new game by accessing a previous finished game, allowing you to start with improved stats, new costumes or items won beforehand. The main reason for this can be so the player has a shot at things like multiple pathways and multiple endings. Indeed, playing through the game twice or thrice may be the best way to power up so you can face the bonus dungeon. A more basic reason is getting over the initial "hump" of the first town playthrough. Another possibility is making the hopeless boss fight at the beginning of the game anything but, and getting a nice bonus reward for beating the final boss preview. Plus it is always nice when you don't have to kill yourself playing to make the character the badass hero that they are supposed to already be (or just to get the satisfaction of walking up to the guy who had you tearing your hair last time and crushing them like a bug on a windshield). Of course, no matter how many special skills and items you can bring over to a new game, the characters almost never are able to remember the game's plot and fix any mistakes they may have made, or they are told that "You Shouldn't Know This Already." You can also just pretend that New Game + mode is playing a new game while averting the with this herring trope since you start off this time with much better gear. On the flipside, the early game becomes a cakewalk unless the enemies are beefed up accordingly. The trope is named after the expression used in Chrono Trigger (where the majority of the game's multiple endings can be attained in this mode), but the concept dates back at least as far as the The Legend of Zelda series.

A court in New Jersey has ruled that anyone who knowingly texts a driver could be held legally responsible if the driver is involved in a crash.
Here's the backstory: In 2009, Kyle Best was driving his car down a rural highway and was texting his friend, Shannon Colonna. During the drive, Best received a text from Colonna nearly the same time as David and Linda Kubert were riding on a motorcycle in the opposite lane. Best was temporarily focused on the text from Colonna rather than where he was driving, causing him to drift into the other lane, slamming into the Kuberts.
The Crash
David's leg was almost severed in the collision and his wife's left leg was shattered, her thighbone protruding out of the skin. As the Kuberts laid on the road helpless, Best called 911, just 17 seconds after Colonna had sent him the text. After ending the call with the 911 operator, Best sent two more texts to Colonna, although the content of those messages has not been publicly released.
Since both Linda and David, who each lost a leg, were almost killed, they went after Best. The couple settled with Best for $500,000, but they also sued Colonna, who had texted him shortly before the crash.
The Kuberts' attorney, Stephen Weinstein, argued that Colonna was also responsible for the incident because she texted Best despite knowing that he was driving. With her decision to text Best, Weinstein stated that Colonna was just as responsible as if she had been a passenger in the car and distracted Best.
However, the judge ruled that Colonna could not be held liable in this particular case because she didn't appear to know her boyfriend was driving at the time. The Kuberts appealed that decision.
But Weinstein's initial decision to go after Colonna actually worked. On Tuesday, the appeals court upheld the lower court ruling that Colonna didn't know Best was driving at the time of the crash. However, the three appeals court judges all agreed that texting a driver can make you liable for a crash.
The court stated, "We hold that the sender of a text message can potentially be liable if an accident is caused by texting, but only if the sender knew or had special reason to know that the recipient would view the text while driving and thus be distracted."
Don't Text And Drive
Although Colonna was not held responsible for the crash, her text combined with Best's decision to text and drive almost cost David and Linda Kubert their lives. Even though not everyone who texts while driving will cause an accident, more than 50 percent of adults and 43 percent of teenagers do use their phones while driving, according to AT&T.
These statistics, along with the countless texting-related accidents that occur each year have prompted numerous anti-texting and driving campaigns. With a court now suggesting that people can be liable for accidents even if they are not driving, the legal damage resulting from texting and driving could drastically increase.

This is your property ?
Situated in the pretty village of St Georges de la Riviere, less than 2km from the beach, Les Pommiers (6 rue Bonvalet) offers the perfect base for a Cote des Iles holiday. The cottage is in the centre of a peaceful traditional French seaside village and is situated on the road leading to the beach. Les Pommiers is a studio cottage with mezzanine bedroom [- accessed by a short flight of 'grenier' (attic) stairs - these have narrow treads].Les Pommiers is not suitable for a wheelchair. However, the sofa-bed/kitchen/living areas, plus shower room are on the ground floor and would be suitable for a guest with limited mobility. The gite opens onto a walled south-facing courtyard (off-road secure parking), with an enclosed and gated orchard. This is an ideal play area for young children. The situation is superb for a holiday spent lazing in the dunes, launching your boat from the St Georges quay, trekking on horse back or with donkeys, or cycling and walking along the miles of sandy coast, Our cottage is also well placed to explore the Normandy bocage and visit the chic sailing resorts of Barneville Carteret and Portbail.
Garden loungers are available plus BBQ, table and chairs for outside dining.
Next door to Les Pommiers is Les Mimosas (please see separate entry by clicking on Cherbourg). If two families or friends are staying in both properties, they may be linked by an internal garden gate (safe from road) - ideal for a young family and grandparents.
St Georges de la Riviere, is famous for Les Dunes de St Georges on a totally unspoilt beach just 20 minutes walk, or 5 minutes drive from our cottages. The beach has a boating slipway and free parking. Golf:
Nine-hole golf course in neighbouring village, St Jean de la Rivi're, close to sea. Cycling: If you would like to hire bicycles, we are able to collect them for you from the inexpensive Bike Hire shop in nearby Portbail and return them at the end of your stay. The Cotentin peninsula offers wonderful cycling routes, with gentle undulating countryside and beautiful quiet lanes.Special interest holidays:
Les Mimosas and Les Pommiers are ideally situated for cyclists or walkers. It is possible to arrive on foot, via a ferry into the port of Cherbourg and travel by bus to St Georges de la Riviere. Those wishing to arrive by bicycle or on foot can also do so between May and September via the port of Carteret (see travel details below). A myriad of flat tiny lanes connect the coastal villages to beaches. The undulating bocage is around half an hour by bicycle inland from the coast: a network of high hedged quiet roads and bridleways criss-cross the peninsula.
A "Train Touristique" runs from end June to beg September on Tuesdays and Thursday between St Georges and market towns Portbail and Barneville-Carteret.Travel:
Nearest airport is Caen (90 minutes drive) or Cherbourg (40 minutes). Ferry services: LD Lines from Portsmouth to Le Havre/Newhaven to Dieppe is a good ferry choice with sensible prices: The company has just introduced 180 degree reclining seats for night crossings. Brittany Ferries has routes into Cherbourg (45 mins by car) and Caen (100 mins by car).Distances:
The sailing resorts of Portbail and Barneville-Carteret are both 10 minutes drive from cottage.Further details: The village has an epicerie for general groceries and adjoining bar with open log-fire on cooler days.
The market towns of Portbail and Barneville Carteret are both within a five minute drive (15 minutes by bicycle). Both towns have sailing schools that also offer sand-yachting and boats and yachts for hire. The neighbouring village to St Georges, St Jean de la Riviere, has a nine hole golf course and riding school. In the summer season there are usually day trips available to the Channel Islands - from either Portbail or Barneville-Carteret.Booking notes:

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Question & Answers
Shopping card
I went to gracie grace and i talked to her she said they take credit cards and i tried it but nobody took it i want that fancy bed but i can not get money can i have help?
Answer from: Elsie~love x
Well if u have the shopping card (u get it by putting 10,000 in bank account) and they don't take it then it means that you might not have it with you or there is no money on it if its not that then i guess i cant help you there but anywany i hope this helps
Answer from: danni87664
Its a shopping card not a credit card, anyway, you need to go to Gracie Grace with your shopping card in your pockets, then press the c button next to the bed that you want, then Labelle will say 'You dont seem to have enough cash on you... would you like to pay by shopping card instead?' when she says that click sure and you will pay by shopping card. If you havn't got enough money, the Labelle will say 'Oh, my goodness! It seems that you don't have enough at the moment. I'm terribly sorry, but I'm afraid we dont offer any sort of layaway plan. I do hope you understand.' If she says that then go back to your town and earn enough money, then go to the city again and buy the bed! Hope this helps!
Answer from: cellcell8
Replying to danni87664: what if i'm using just a remote what do i press?

Answer from: kaylie
How do u gt the shopping card
Answer from: DinoDylan
Deposit 10,000 bells into the bank and Skip to the next day. Go in your mail and you'll have a letter called bell point notice. It will contain a shopping card. When it's in your inventory, click it and it will say add bells. Add as many as you want

How can sustainable mobility become more appealing to the inhabitants of Stuttgart? Surveying 1000 people about how they choose to move around the Stuttgart region revealed four mobility comfort profiles. The next step in this research project is to develop an app demonstrator that will help measure the comfort of those on the move.
As part of the "Urban Mobility Comfort – Stuttgart Region" project, last summer the Dialogik non-profit institute for communication and cooperation research asked 1000 people to rate the comfort of the various transport options available in and around Stuttgart. Participants gave their opinion of the comfort they experience when using public transport (light rail, suburban trains, buses), car-based services (taxis, car sharing), bicycle-based services and their own cars. Among the survey's findings, the following four mobility comfort profiles emerged:
"Relaxers" put a premium on being able to take it easy and engage in a range of activities during their journey and therefore tend to opt for public transport. They prefer to change between services less often and accept that their journey will take longer as a result. Practicability is what steers their choice of transportation.
"Dashers" are also frequent users of public transport, but they are the ones who feel most limited in their mobility options. As this group tends to favor speed over comfort, "dashers" find excessive distances between journey legs and complicated route planning inconvenient.
"Discerners" see no real substitute to going in their own car, as that's the only way they can satisfy their need for privacy, a guaranteed seat, a direct route and shorter traveling times. That's why they are prepared to pay more to have greater comfort when on the move.
Short traveling times and flexibility are the order of the day for the "sporty" group, whose love of physical exercise means they are the group least likely to take the car. Their idea of comfort and mobility comes mainly with two wheels – they take advantage of bike sharing more than any other group.
Working with the Fraunhofer Application Center KEIM at Esslingen University of Applied Sciences, the next stage of the project will develop a cell phone app demonstrator based on the project's scientific groundwork. This app is designed to allow sensor-based measurement of background factors related to comfort and offers users the chance to report in real time anything they feel is compromising their comfort on the move.Contact

Arcteryx Men's Gamma MX Jacket
Products on Sale are Discontinued Styles or Colors.
The Arc'teryx Men's Gamma MX Jacket is, in my incredibly biased opinion, one of the best soft shells on the market. My bias comes from the fact that everything Arc'teryx puts out is of the highest quality and from my few years owning a Gamma MX jacket. This versatile soft shell mid-layer utilizes Arc'teryx's Fortius 2.0 fabric to achieve the perfect balance of mobility, style and elemental protection. I bought it for the style; the fact that it sheds rain, blocks wind and is super warm are just bonuses (bonuses that come in handy in inclement weather). Whatever your needs, this jacket will suit them.
FEATURES of the Arcteryx Men's Gamma MX Jacket
- Mid-weight Fortius 2.0 softshell fabric is durable and wind resistant with DWR finish, brushed backer adds warmth
- Full length Vislon front zipper with wind flap
- Brushed collar provides additional warmth
- Two hand pockets and two chest pockets, laminated sleeve pocket
- Hem drawcord can be adjusted to seal out the cold
SPECIFICATIONS of the Arcteryx Men's Gamma MX Jacket
- Weight: 20.3 oz / 575 g
- Fit: Athletic
- Fortius 2.0 - 53% polyester, 27% nylon, 20% spandex
This product can only be shipped within the United States. Please don't hate us.

Fell in love with the unique design of the jacket. The two chest pockets and logo really set it apart from the crowd. Its sporty and handsome. I use it for hiking , walking and for going around town. These things aren't cheap, but I love Arc'teryx
I upgraded to this from my old Marmot Gravity softshell. All I can say is, wow! I thought my old one was good, but this thing is pretty amazing! It is everything that you would expect from Arc'teryx. The fit is fantastic. I am pretty skinny and it is hard for me to find jackets that fit well, but this one is absolutely spot on. Definitely designed for an athletic build. My only gripes with this jacket are that the neck is a little wide for everyday use, but it does fold down nicely into a collar. The sleeves also don't have any Velcro, which can make them hard to get over a watch, but one you do, they fit really nicely. The shell fabric is top notch. Stretchy to allow for movement, but with a really nice hand, and quite breathable. The DWR works really well too; sheds light rain quite well. The fleece lining is pretty thin, but it is the perfect weight for 4-season wear in California. Just as versatile in the city as in the woods. Pricey, but you definitely get what you pay for!
I am a big fan of softshells due to their breathability and this is the highest quality softshell in existence. The seams, zippers, construction, and fabric is all cearly top notch and it couldnt' fit any better. It looks tailored and professional regardless of if you are a dirtbag or not. The gamma is excellent and while most of my other gear has a place and climate of use, this is the jacket that spans them all and is the most versatile.
This is an awesome jacket. Arc'teryx really got this one right. Perfect weight for Fall and Spring, and even wore through the winter with a base layer. Well made, expect to last. I have already worn it for a year, washed it once, and it looks new.
This is my third gamma mx,I love it,wind and water resistant,comfortable,I will be back.EVEREST STATUS
This is a great jacket, wind resistant, somewhat water resistant too,(big plus). I wear it climbing and snowshoeing,contoured for your elbows, no restriction. Wear it with a midweight baselayer, (Smartwool, Icebreaker or Arcteryx). Pockets are easy to get into one handed too. Nice lining too, kinda like fleece. I throw a hard shell on when I stop or a puffy coat. BUY ONE YOU WON"T BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!
Very comfortable underwear, windproof is good,very warm. 175 cm, 70 kg, very suitable.EVEREST STATUS
It's truly not often finding both a service friendly jacket and a good looking garment. First spending over $300 clams w/tax was kind of hard for a jacket even though I had the cash on hand to do so. I found it feels a lot like fleece both inside and out but the serviceability is nothing like fleece or even the look is not like a cheap fleece coat its just really soft like fleece is about it. It is somewhat wind stoppable, I say somewhat because it doesn't stop the wind like say Gore-Tex but its not real far away from it. My recommendation is Heck yes you should give it a try like I did and it sold me the first day of wearing it on a 32 degree day with nothing more than a light #150 of Ice Breaker which is quit comfortable combo. No I work for neither Moosejaw or Arcteryx this is a real review oh and "Yes" this is a word in the Urban Dictionary...Fantastarastic

Story/Photo Idea
UW-Eau Claire will host a Hmong New Year celebration Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 12-13. Activities will run from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. in the Olson addition of the McPhee Center on upper campus. At 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Rep. Ron Kind will cut the ribbon to officially welcome in the New Year. Kind will talk about his work with the Hmong population in Wisconsin, as well as his recent trip to Laos and Thailand, where he discussed Hmong refugee issues with government officials. The Hmong New Year, which marks the end of the harvest season, is a time for families to give thanks to their ancestors and welcome in the New Year. The most popular holiday celebrated by Hmong people, it's usually celebrated by casting away old habits and welcoming new behaviors. During the celebration, the game "Pov Pob," a ball-tossing that is a traditional form of courtship for young people, will be played, and youth talent competitions and other performances will take place. Many Hmong participants wear traditional Hmong clothing. Information sessions for non-Hmong attendees will be offered at various times during the two-day celebration. The sessions will focus on the history, culture and values that surround the Hmong New Year. For details, contact Charles Vue, associate director, Office of Multicultural Affairs, at 715-836-3367 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Story Idea/Guests to speak at Veterans Day events
Two guest speakers will be on campus this week for events in observance of Veterans Day:
Story Idea/Campus Expert
How plants' response to carbon dioxide may impact global warming is the topic of a campus lecture this week. Dr. Tali Lee, associate professor of biology, will present "Can Plants Help Us Reduce Global Warming?" at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 10, in the commons area of Towers Hall North on upper campus. Lee will discuss her research on plant physiological responses to the growing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations associated with global climate change. She also will talk about how plants often are seen as a promising solution to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels associated with global warming since they take up carbon dioxide in photosynthesis. Long-term studies of plant responses to global change are showing that this response may be overestimated. Lee will share the findings of a study she is part of in Minnesota that focuses on plants responses to environmental change and how the responses are affecting species interactions, restoration efforts and our ability to predict plant response to global change. For details, contact Kate Hartsel at 715-836-2505 or email@example.com.
Story Idea
Two students and a recent graduate were winners in the Wisconsin District Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions. The Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions is one of the most prestigious singing competitions in the United States and is known worldwide for its potential impact on the career development of young singers. Vocal performance major Meagan Seubert, soprano, and 2010 graduate Kevin Newell, tenor, each received Encouragement awards along with $450 to assist them in furthering their studies. Seubert, a senior from Eau Claire, studies voice with Dr. Mitra Sadeghpour, associate professor of music. Newell, who also studied with Sadeghpour, is pursuing a master's degree at the University of Michigan. Anthony Reed, bass, was one of five singers selected to advance to the Midwest Regional Auditions to be held Feb. 4, 2012, at the Ordway Center Main Hall in St. Paul, Minn. He received an award of $1,750. Reed, a senior vocal performance major from Alexandria, Minn., studies with Dr. Mark Mowry, assistant professor of music. More information can be found online.

Bezier Curve Chine:
"One Of" Metal boat builders, like us, who have been limited to hard chine designs can now build true round metal hull using the "Bezier Curve" chine construction method. This innovative construction method enable you to build a true round design as easily as a hard chine design.
Bezier Curve Design and Construction does not use Line Heating, English Wheels, special tooling, fixtures, exotic methods, or Explosive and Hydraulic forming. The beauty of Bezier Curve is that I can actually teach you how to use it within metalsailboats.com. The method is consistent and predictable. There is nothing vague about the method both written and visual. You can see the process thoroughly by following the building of the "Bezier 12.5". Chose a topic on the "Right Toolbar".
If you think you have the skills to build a hard or radius chine hull, then you have the skills to build a true round hull using the "Bezier Curve" method.
Metal sailboats. com does not just have a dialogue about obscure methods to build a true round hull. Metalsailboats.com details true round metal boat building methods and, provides all the necessary plans and Cad/Cam files to build it.

Town Board Examines Road Impact Fees
By Sandy Barnes
Berthoud Recorder
To provide funds for improving roads to accommodate anticipated Town growth, the Board of Trustees reviewed a proposal for updated impact fees along with a revised master street plan at the Tuesday, April 7 meeting.
The Master Street Plan Update for the Town includes widening of State Highway 56 to four lanes from First Street to County Road 7 and extending Spartan Avenue from County Road 17 to U.S. Highway 287. Adding access ramps from Hwy. 287 to County Road 10E to create an interchange and realignment of the Interstate 25 frontage road from County Road 40 to County Road 46 also are in the extensive list of projects presented in the updated plan. The revised plan incorporates improvements to roads in both the Town center and the Town's I-25 growth management areas.
The total cost of anticipated improvements to the Town's transportation network is more than $25 million over time, according to figures presented in the study. Increases in road impact fees in the update average 36 percent for roads in the Town center from the present amount set in 2001. For example, the updated fee for a single-family detached house would increase from $1,684 to $2,257.
During his presentation, John Seyer of HDR, Inc., who completed the study, pointed to a concern over increasing fees, which might drive away development.
In the road impact fee analysis, there is a recommendation that the Town keep the current policy of staff negotiating with developers for making an "equitable implementation plan" for intersection improvements when needed, rather than imposing an intersection impact fee. "To date, the Town has not been saddled with the cost of making intersection improvements that development should have been able to make," the report states.
"It does seem that the Town's present system is effective," Seyer said. "The developer is not responsible for all road improvements in the area—only the portion affected," he remarked.
"Right now, we charge a straight impact fee," said Planner Tim Katers.
During the Board discussion, Trustee Michael Patrick said there is a constant tension around charging a reasonable amount to developers. "What we're really talking about here is doing our best-case estimate," he remarked.
Mayor Pro Tem David Gregg said that establishing additional road impact fees would have the potential for "grossly over-charging" developers.
"We have to offer incentives now," said Mayor Tom Patterson, who favored leaving present road impact fees untouched.
The Board is planning discussions of the fees in future meetings.

Teaching Teachers
During summer vacation last year, I was walking along the beach and observed some counselors and campers from a nearby day camp.
The younger campers were involved in the traditional "Steal the Bacon", while the older kids were playing volleyball. What was disturbing to me was not what they were playing but how and why.
How many of the campers were really physically active? How many were really having "fun"? What was going through the mind of the little girl who forgot her number during steal the bacon, and the other side got the point?
Why were many of the adolescent campers not playing in the volleyball game? Were any of these campers learning the essential skills needed to keep them safe and confident during physical activity?
How can we, as counselors and camp directors, provide fun, challenging sports and recreational activities for our campers while increasing the amount of physical activity they have?
Remember, kids are kids are kids! Campers need to learn basic movement skills to keep them safe during games and physical activities.
No matter what the setting, you need to follow strategies that good teachers use to inspire students to love learning in today's world.
Listed below are guidelines that are part of any good camp counselor's arsenal of psyching up kids to learn, be safe, and have fun through physical activity…
Development & Instruction
Using developmentally and instructionally appropriate practices are common in the teaching profession, but we sometimes fail to utilize them in a camp setting.
Many camp counselors and camp directors do not have a background in quality physical education and athletic programs and do the best they can from their own experiences at camp, school or home. Let's look at this arsenal of strategies counselors can use to get kids participating in physical activities…
Using instructionally appropriate practices means using those strategies that have proven, over the years, to maximize opportunities for learning and provide success for all our campers.
Using developmentally appropriate practices recognizes the changing movement capabilities of kids and adapts to a variety of individual characteristics, including physical, mental and emotional development, previous movement experience, fitness levels, body size, and age of the campers.
Although there is an endless list of strategies (I recommend the National Association of Sport and Physical Education's list of Developmentally Appropriate Practices for future reference), the following are my top ten:
The first and most important strategy is to be enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the activity you are teaching. If you are energized, your campers will be too!
Do not waste time reading rules, getting out equipment, picking teams, and so on. Be organized and plan ahead. Know what you are doing and do it enthusiastically… "Failing to plan is planning to fail!"
Do your homework about your campers. Know what to expect from them physically, mentally and emotionally. This will help you plan activities to meet their developmental needs.
It is difficult to find non-touching activities when your campers reach the age where the opposite sex has "cooties".
When giving directions, use the KISS principle –- keep it short & simple. Kids want to be active so don't waste activity time with long explanations and lots of rules.
Provide a safe and positive environment for your campers before, during and after activities. Have an assortment of positive verbal comments to encourage the not-so-talented camper, without getting carried away and being dishonest.
Don't allow put-downs or fighting among campers. Planning ahead and providing a positive environment goes a long way to managing behavior problems before they start. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
Allow for maximum participation and success for all campers. For younger age groups, stay away from traditional games that have low participation and only the "good athletes" seem to be have fun. Know what skills are required for what games and how skilled your campers are –- learn to modify for success.
Accommodate individual characteristics. This does not mean having the overweight boy/girl play goalie. It means providing games and activities that everyone can do; cooperative games, outdoor adventure activities, individual sports, lifetime activities, stations or a variety of games.

Thailand saw some dark days last year, when the worst floods in 50 years killed 600 people and devastated large sectors of industry. But with $11bn set aside to help prevent a repeat and improved water management, things are looking better for the future.And there are numbers to back up these signs of recovery. The IMF is forecasting growth of 5.5 per cent for Thailand's economy in 2012 and 7.5 per cent in 2013. All that is good news for Yingluck Shinawatra, the country's prime minister, who has been in power for a little over nine months. She is Thailand's first female prime minister, its youngest in 60 years and the sister of former Thai prime minister, Thaksin Shinawatra.In this exclusive interview, she talks to Al Jazeera about the promise of investment and sure signs of recovery at a time of change in the neighbourhood.Also, on this week's Counting the Cost: How South Korea's burgeoning defence industry could owe some of its growth to North Korea's military threats. South Korea's defence industry has been growing at more than 10 per cent a year since 2006 - fuelled by a government defence budget of some $30bn. Manufacturers have been developing home-grown weapons and now they are selling their technology abroad too.A key reason for all that spending: North Korea.As Kim Chul-Soo of the Defence Acquisition Programme explains: "There is a constant need to address North Korea's threats. If we relied entirely on overseas purchasing it would be difficult to meet the demands in an emergency situation. So South Korea has made efforts to manufacture defence materials domestically, improve quality and reduce the costs."And, finally, when an energy giant starts talking about water and food conservation, it may be time to start paying attention. We look at why there could be a shortage of fresh water and what Shell is doing about it.

Best pastrami and corned beef sandwiches. They also give u a bowl of awesome jewish pickles on the table. I always make sure I get a fresh loaf or 2 of freshly made rye bread. Very friendly staff.
Posted by T J on 01/07/2012
Place is old and a bit dim; mid-century atmosphere sets you in mind of the old, defunct R&W on Rittenhouse Square, Cy Green's in Olde City or even the greatest of all pastrami palaces, Katz Lower East Side. Service is very quick and friendly as if they expect everyone will become a regular (of which there are many). Pastrami, corned beef and deli fishes are the best around. Bagels are very, good. Prices are right. If you want an established, reliable deli to eat in or take out, this is a fine choice.

Miranda minged?
June 2nd, 2010 by p1, Filed under: Commentary, Culture, Law, OT, Social Engineering
I came across a very interesting article today.
It relates to the Miranda decision and warning. Although this is American case law everybody knows about it, since it is the basis of the warning, on every cop show and movie, that the suspect has "the right to remain silent" etc.
This comes from a decision in 1966 that police must ensure a suspect understands his rights (not to incriminate himself) and waives them only "knowingly and intelligently."
Now comes a case where a suspect was warned, and was then questioned for nearly three hours, during which time he said almost nothing. A detective then began asking the suspect about his religious beliefs: "Do you pray to God to forgive you for shooting that boy down?" The suspect said, "Yes," but refused to make any further confession. The prosecution introduced the statement as evidence, and a jury convicted.
The case was appealed and went to the US Supreme Court.
Four justices held that allowing the statement turns Miranda upside down and that criminal suspects must now unambiguously invoke their right to remain silent—which, counterintuitively, requires them to speak.
However, five justices held that after giving a Miranda warning, police may interrogate a suspect who has neither invoked nor waived his rights.
So, I guess the right not to incriminate, in the US, is now opt-in only.
