Knife Review : Douk-Douk Knife
What do you think about this video?
1845Raven: I read recently that French knife maker Fred Perrin was a fan of these
knives. I also read the Douk-Douk knives are made in France. They are
made of XC75 steel. I believe a US steel equivalent would be 1075 steel.
Also, the steel is hardened to 52-53 HRC. That's a very low rockwell for
HC steel, but I figure for a variety of reasons--value, etc., the low
rockwell is fine. ParasitSam: I find the history behind knives fasinating. Great video, hope to see more and hear more history abut knives. Justin Diehl: i really like these more historical reviews really really interesting kakage98: so simple yet so elagant cutlerylover: @masterdurchgriff read the rest of the comments Jorg: @cutlerylover also, after this rather arrogant remark of yours it would be nice if you give some more details about that 'researched info'.. something concrete that dates back from before Cognet's 1929 patent perhaps? Shawn Swigart: Its french and says so on the blade they are about 25.00 for the small. Hardest steel I have ever seen on any pocketknife BALJIT147: the french have this, the Scandinavians have that, jeff has everything i have ever heard of flashdamingo: @flashdamingo I read the WW2 issue clasp knives were made by wittingslowe here in OZ and donated to the war effort. Ironically the later issue knives like my one were branded Shelham (sheldon hammond ?) and made in japan. The newer Black wolf ones are made in china I think. They are a rough and tough user. Do a search for australian military knives clasp knives for more info. notreallydaedalus: @bbgunmaster13 Cut with the blade and not the spine, you'll be fine ;). Seriously, I've carried and used slip-joints most of my life (mostly Victorinox), and have never had one close on me when I wasn't expecting it. cutlerylover: @marksgearreviews my info came from a discussion thread on a knife related forum with 7 different peopel talkign to each other and agreeing on that specific history, 3 of the men custom knife makers in which I respect a great deal, if Im wrong thats fine, please correct it in a comment with the correct info and YOUR sources, it will be noted cutlerylover: @sooot175 the SVORD peasant knife, its a friction folder, search knivesandstuff for videos on it MadNumForce: I've seen with my very eyes the stamping machines used to cut the blades, handles and lanyard loops, and the other machine Gaston Cognet designed himself to mount a knife (put all the pieces in place, slip the axis/pins, and cut it) with such a hard spring. Since 1929, it had to be fixed many times, but it basically never changed. the Manufacture of Cutlery Cognet (MCC) has been in the same factory for more than one century, and when digging the ground for some reason, they've found an old die. ilikeknives00: Where can u get those?? They look sweet!! 2010blackhawkdown: well done, you can use wikipedia, if you read the whole article you wouldve seen this too "The handle depicts a "douk-douk", or Melanesian spirit incarnation" tim52396: The handle of this knive and the Cold Steel Pocket Bushman have a similar design/style. cam131313cam: @cutlerylover i think thats NZ but we steal everything of theirs thats good any way so... :) cutlerylover: @masterdurchgriff ok but let me ask you this 1st...what do you feel about this knife makes it so unique to congets desing? is it the blade style, the rolled over one piece handle? the backspring? narrow that down for me and Ill give you an example of a knife that was invented before it... MrZilbon: Interesting video but actually douk douk have always been french knives. They have always been produced in the same french city and the reason you are mistaking is that they were very popular in north africa. It was originaly created to be sold in australia. cutlerylover: @masterdurchgriff Im thinking we were arguing ior disussing 2 different ideas, I stand corrected in that this very specific knife was designed by a frenchman and is a big part iof french culture, yes...I was talking more to the fact that its not the 1st of its kind, but its specific configuration is... astaschak: @JoeDurobot ok, i don't really care all that much about its history, its not that important to me, buy any ways, i was just letting you know if you already didn't that wiki isn't the best. but no matter the history its a cool little knife FatzoMcUgly: @fireblind No need, it's got a backspring. cutlerylover: @airsoftgunner47 just noted as high carbon, 1055 or similar perhaps? CouteauDeBoucher: It was made by french people by a french company, for a foreign market. It is french. Siegdrifa: I checked some french web site and the price of the Douk Douk L'Ecureuil (squirel) is 16.65€ So with the change, if the knife is in good shape, i think 20$ is a fair price. Febeleh: I like both, but honestly, go with the Mercator. It has a lock (lock-back), while not necessary, it is nice to have a bit of safety, and personally, I think the Mercator has a better blade style. They're both similar, have a carbon steel, really the only reason to get a Douk-Douk is to have a knife that also has a bit more history (not saying the Mercator doesn't). kakage98: 29 more till 1000 :D!!!!!!! MrJVote: Invented by a French guy in the 1930s. The little wizard guy was picked out of a book by the French guy because he thought it was cool. Reason it was invented was for the colonial trade. You see, France was once a one of the great powers of the world and this guy invented this knife to be sold to France's overseas colonies. It was invented by a French guy and made by other French guys working for a French company in France. How is that not a French knife? pilozard: Hehe he said Penetration longtoes12: Cool cutlerylover: @JoeDurobot my research goes way past wikipedia, which for the most part is a comon collection of thoughts and facts, you do know anyone can post info on there right? I can go there right now and post its a knife made out of mustrard that tastes good on pickles...lol, wiki is a good place to start but not law... notreallydaedalus: @ltm7575 First thing I think of is the Buck folding hunter, personally. Second, maybe the Case Stockman. But I'm no expert! pkdiddy: Yes, Pradel knives. newhuskytwenty: Cheap French knife to be sold in their colonies, but the edge used to be very, very sharp as only were the ancient carbon steel blades zanuha: @leatherfacefan1974 You should have asked for an education. Jorg: I did, this was a reply of some time before we discussed its origines in the other replies. For all clarity and for those who might be following this, let me reiterate and pls correct me if I'm wrong. Your statement is based upon the fact that this knife, although designed and produced by a french cutler, has actual other origins.. The heft is a copy of the older German Mercator 5KK5 katze, the scimitar blade is a persian design and even the douk-douk figurine is malenese.. We do agree on this Justmyopinionlol: besides douk douk and opinel are there other affordable french made knifes? tjr1411: @stabnshoot im pretty sure this is a small. stabnshoot: is this a small, medium or large douk douk? DaBossk: do u know what my favorite part of shooting hoops is? 3 2 1 ..... overtime! :D :D:D::D:D:D:D:D:D:D toddman22410: FIRST! to dislike. MrZilbon: Nope it's not. It was popular in africa so he thought it wasn't a french knife but it is. ltm7575: @notreallydaedalus yeah id probably agree with that EasternGateGuardian: @cutlerylover you guys are both right:The external engraving of the douk-douk was created in 1929 for sales to France's colonies on Oceania. The handle depicts a "douk-douk", or Melanesian spirit incarnation. from wiki cutlerylover: @masterdurchgriff I know, whats accepted as custure and whats actualy true are 21 sdifferent thigns, take the balsiong, its a french invention...although any single Filipino will tell you their ansestors invented iot and its part of their culture, YES they adopted it more than any other country or people, BUT they didnt invent it, lol ballietbran: i'm guessing you work alot. do you have an iphone that you use to check on youtube videos or do you just have lots of spare time. thanks! :) notreallydaedalus: @masterdurchgriff French fries got their name from the cut -- long & thin is called frenching, which I believe is their technique. They should really be called frenched fried potatoes, but you know how we Americans like to shorten things! MadNumForce: This die dates back from Napoleon era, and were hidden to avoid being destroyed when regime changed, and now they've put it in production back again, with that same two century old die. Knifemaking in Thiers is about as old as the American Constitution, and Cognet (with their hare and greyhound marking) is an old maker, designer and inventor of the Douk-Douk. Mercator used the folded handle design first, but it's a backlock, and needs much more work, it's obvious to anyone who has both and I do. B4TT3RY .: @cutlerylover *fangirl scream* Milo Fayne: Great video, keep up the good work. Just a couple of side notes; firstly when you were talking about legality, in the UK its actually the cutting edge that's measured for these purposes and secondly: Scimitar is pronounced as of there were no c so really should be spelt Simitar. Thanks again for the great vids. |

- Conference date: 1–5 May 2011
- Location: Cairo, (Egypt)
The aim of the present study is to determine caretenoide during olive maturity stages in order to determine harvesting time, sorting and grading. Image processing algorithms were developed and implemented to provide the maturity parameters for olive fruits classification according to color properties. A random sample of olives (Arbquina variety) was obtained from farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Cairo University. The experimental setup includes digital camera, light source and computer software for color analysis. The results indicated the following points: (1) Mature olive fruits may be classified according to color components and hue degree into five stages as follows: green, yellow green, turning, purple, and black; (2) Color components values of Red, Green and Blue (R, G and B) were found (59.95, 71.14 and 30.72%), (70.27, 69.06 and 47.25%), (81.18, 61.28 and 48.78%), (42.04, 24.20 and 25.45%) and (19.19, 17.68 and 18.21%) for maturity stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively.; (3) The green color was sovereignty in stage 1 because of green color component value was high, while the black color was sovereignty through the stage because of R, G, and B color component values were low.; (4) Color properties measurements as Hue degree, Saturation value and Brightness (HSB) for maturity stages were (77.32, 56.74 and 70.96 value), (57.08, 33.06 and 70.84 value), (22.36, 40.08 and 81.54 value), (352.98, 41.86 and 41.24 value) and (329, 8.78 and 19.34 value) for maturity stages 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 respectively and (5) Maturity indices were 0.62, 1.08, 1.94, 2.65 and 5.34 for maturity stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 respectively.

Home Treatment
Seek immediate medical help. Do NOT make a person throw up unless told to do so by poison control or a health care professional. Flush the skin and eyes with lots of water, if the plant touched these areas.
Before Calling Emergency
Determine the following information:
- Patient's age, weight, and condition
- Name of the plant, if known
- Time it was swallowed
- Amount swallowed
Poison Control, or a local emergency number
The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) can be called from anywhere in the United States. This national hotline number will let you talk to experts in poisoning. They will give you further instructions.
This is a free and confidential service. All local poison control centers in the United States use this national number. You should call if you have any questions about poisoning or poison prevention. It does NOT need to be an emergency. You can call for any reason, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
See: Poison control center - emergency number
What to expect at the emergency room
The health care provider will measure and monitor your vital signs, including temperature, pulse, breathing rate, and blood pressure. Symptoms will be treated as appropriate. You may receive:
- Activated charcoal
- Breathing support
- Fluids by IV
- Tube through the mouth into the stomach to wash out the stomach (gastric lavage)
Expectations (prognosis)
How well you do depends on the amount of poison swallowed and how quickly treatment is received. The faster you get medical help, the better the chance for recovery.
Serious poisonings can result in kidney failure. Deaths have been reported, but are rare.

How to Research Majors, Minors and Certificates
Read online and print resources
- Use the online version of the UWM Undergraduate Catalog or UWM Graduate School Catalog, or purchase a more user-friendly hard copy at the UWM Bookstore.
- Review the website for the specific major, minor, or certificate. Links to websites can be accessed in the UWM Majors, Minors, and Certificate Programs handout or through the UWM website.
- Refer to this list of questions when doing your research. Try to find answers to as many as possible.
Talk with individuals knowledgeable about the major
- Ask questions of advisors, faculty, and current and past students of the program. Check with departments/programs to see if they will be conducting information sessions related to certain majors, minors, or certificates.
- Use this list of questions when interviewing people about the program.
Experience the major and related careers through hands-on activities
- Observe or take classes to learn more about what you may study within a particular program and if it fits with your interests and skills. Taking a 100 level course may give you a better understanding of a program, however, you would not want to rule out an area of study based just on this experience. Be sure to also sit on on upper level courses to get a more in-depth perspective.
How to identify courses to observe/sit in on:
- Research which courses are required for the program through the UWM Undergraduate Catalog or UWM Graduate School Catalog.
- Look at the Schedule of Classes to see which of the required courses are being offered at times that fit your schedule.
- Get the instructors' names and emails from the UWM online people search and send them an email asking if you can sit in on a class session. DO NOT attend their class without first asking and DO NOT show up at their class and ask to sit in that day. Before sending an email to an instructor, be sure to look at this example.
- Investigate, attend, and/or join UWM student organizations related to the academic programs in which you are interested. By understanding the purpose and activities of the student organization you can learn more about that area of study and related career fields.
How to research student organizations to learn about majors/careers:
- Interview their contact person and ask questions that allow you to explore the major and careers associated with that area of study. Refer to this list of questions.
- Ask if you can attend a meeting or event to gain a better perspective of the organization and the major/career area.
- If you are interested in the organization and choose the area of study it's affiliated with, then consider joining.
Benefits of joining a student organization:
- Talk with students who have chosen the major/career about where they obtained related experience and what they plan to do in the career when they graduate
- Attend events such as organization/company tours, professionals speaking about the career field, career fairs, projects, etc.
- Find out about internship and job opportunities
- Stay informed about career related workshops, seminars, and special events in the community
- Get connected with professionals
- Strengthen your resume and demonstrate leadership if you hold an office
- Pay reduced fees for professional conferences

Cadillac SRX Prices Paid and Buying Experience
prankstakid10 Posts: 2
prankstakid10 Posts: 2
jdpwr Posts: 2I really wanted to buy the SRX, but opted for a comparably priced car (with higher consumer satisfaction ratings, though that was not a motivator for me).
Two things Cadillac could do to make me look next time.
First, drop the complexity. When buying a car for $40K-48k+, do people really want to "choose" a list of "package"d amenities similarly priced cars just include (sun roof, a 3rd row seat, AWD, heated seats, univeral home remote, etc, etc, etc)? Who has time for this?
Second, information is power, so use it to your advantage. Most people buying a luxury vehicle are armed with all the info they need to know they're getting a good deal. Even after informing every dealer I spoke to (4 in all) that I was only going to buy a car from a person/dealer who did not waste my time, I still got the usual (or should I say, "dated") run around. Unfortunately for Cadillac, it's not hard to find dealers of other car brands who understand this.
Too bad for such a great American brand. -
susanw6 Posts: 32After shopping online and visitn 3 other dealerships, I just leased a 2007 SRX for the best price around. I got a
2007 V6 SRX w/Premium package ($4100) and utility package ($1125), in White Diamond. MSRP is $43,455. I put down $2000 in GM Mastercard rewards and for a39 month lease w/15,000 miles/year I am paying $470.00 per month, plus tax for a grand total of $498.20.
They had others vehicles in other colors with the same options that were $40 more per month, but they said this one was an "older age model", meaning it was one of the first few they got in from Detroit in October, so there was some add'l rebate Cadillac was providing them on it.
My only concern was that it had 130 miles on it and I've never bought or leased a new car with more than 15 miles on it. I made them check the computer to see how those miles got there and when it arrived at the dealership on Oct 24, it already had the 130 miles (I actually saw this). They said it was not a dealerhisp transfer, nor a demo. They said that maybe it was used as a test model by the factory. Never believing anything a dealership says, I'm skeptical, however, I still think I got a good deal and since its a lease, as opposed to a purchase, I'm O.K. with it.
Anyone ever heard of such high mileage on a new car? -
fgs6007 Posts: 1Try this one on for size: I am taking delivery of a 2007 SRX AWD this weekend, luxury collection (V6), Black/Black, third row seat. 48 months, 12K miles, and trading a 4-year old Olds minivan with 90K miles......$340 per month (tax included), with $500 down. Hard to believe, but I trust the dealer who has done business with my brother for years. I even got to order the car color I wanted!
The dealer down the road wanted to charge $475/mo, and wouldn't budge. -
susanw6 Posts: 32Hi fgs! Sounds like you got a good deal, but its hard to compare apples to oranges. The cars sound the same, but my lease is for 39 months and 15,000 miles, whereas yours is 48 months and 12,000 miles. Your lease is based on a lower residual because it will be older when it is turned in, and mine will have more miles on it. Also, I don't know what they allowed in your trade toward the down payment.
overworkin Posts: 5I am picking up a 2005 SRX V8 AWD tonite. It comes with vistaroof, loaded, 30,000 miles for 29,500. Thing is this adge of car in a 3 yr plan with a ballon payment (or lease, bank buy back, etc) the residual after 36mths will be 23,500 with 15000/yr. That gets me a payment of 270/mth. How's tha for a great deal. By the way it's a US vehicle imported into Canada. I can't wait. We have tonnes of snow up here near the Western NY border and the AWD will be very welcome.
Ps This is the finest north american vehicle I have driven and i only hope that the reliabilty is there and I will become a long time GM convert.

ttruglio Posts: 2Correct me if I am wrong, but I priced an 07 V8 loaded except for the third row seat and DVD entertainment system from the Cadillac site and Edmunds and both MSRP's came in at around $49,700. Is this correct? Reading postings where folks purchased 04's, 05's, and some 06's their MSRP's were in the mid $50k.
dmbleser Posts: 8A fully loaded 2007 SRX MSRP is $45,000. Selling price is $41,750 which includes a $2250 rebate. Lease with $3650 down is $581 for 36 months. Lease with $1650 is $643. includes tax and 12000 miles per year.
The base SRX MSRP of $37855. Selling price is $35,527. Lease with $3650 down is $491. With $1650 down is 552. includes tax and 12000 miles per year
or are they all lousy deals? -
gaonmymind Posts: 2I just did the following deal 2 weeks ago:
base cap cost: 43640.5
cash rebate: 2250
add acquisition fee: 595
net cap cost: 41985.5
Residual: 54%
Interest Rate: 3.95%
OOP: First month+tax/title/reg around $865.00
Monthly pmt: $567 incl tax
So based on my numbers I would say not a good deal. You should be able to get invoice or $500 below before the rebate. -

dms9 Posts: 137I am very interested in the SRX. I just think it is a bit pricey. I was hopeful that a comparable American car would cost less than the competition. The other front runner for me is the MDX, maybe that should be considered the competition? I have the luxury of time. My car works fine, I can wait if it's worth it. I have a couple questions for anyone who may have some information:
1) Does anyone know, or is there anyway to find out, if GM will be running any promotions in the future. The employee pricing they did a couple years ago was quite a deal. The current incentives are good, but modest.
2) Does anyone know if Caddy is going to change the SRX soon. I don't want to buy a car that is at the end of it's current configuration run.
Thank you for anyone who can answer. -
isla_guy Posts: 4I live in South Florida and my plan was to lease a new 07'Cad. SRX Blk/Chasmere with a MSRP of $43,040. Now I learned that GMAC is offering 0% on 60 months to buy, I will buy instead of lease (I think). My cars are typically driven approx. 8,000 miles/yr. (driven very little).
I cannot seem to get the dealer to give me all the scoop on rebates or discounts that GM is offering on the SRX. The best offer I have been able negotiate is $39,875.00 plus Tax, Title & Tags. How much better discount should I be able to get. I feel $3165 off is not such a great deal ..Need advise please help? Anyone? -
dms9 Posts: 137Is there any "friends" discount or shareholder discount (IBM gives huge discounts to shareholders for those of you who are interested)on GM products. In other words, if I have a friend who works for GM, is there an above board way of securing a better price. I really don't want to do anything improper or get him in trouble. But, if they have legitimate program, I would like to know about. Similarly, if they give discounts for shareholders, I would like to know that as well.
Thank you. -
jessgall Posts: 3I bought my 2005 SRX AWD last year (2006) for $24,900. It's fully loaded, third row seating, GPS, performance package, magnetic ride, DVD entertainment, along with the totally rockin' sunroof!! I would have to say that we got a pretty good deal. It was turned in at a Toyota dealer for trade in. They didn't even know it had a dvd in it!! When I was test driving, they were surprised when I pulled out the screen, ha ha ha. I LOVE this car still!!

docrw Posts: 94The SRX does not have AWD standard either, it is an option, as are all the options you mentioned. The only distinguishing option on the SRX is the 3rd row. Perhaps the car you saw on the lot had those options but check out the sticker, you have to pay extra for all of them. So I don't really see your point with the post, unless you meant to add an "either" at the end.
foschus Posts: 3There's a dealer in my area advertising a brand new 2005 SRX V8 for only $33,000. I don't all the equipment, but they say the original MSRP was $53,000. I asked if it had hail damage and they said yes, but it has been completely repaired. I also asked if it had a salvage title and they said the title was clean. I've been looking at new vehicles but never really considered the SRX because it's a little out of my price range, but a deal like this brings it a little closer.
Is that as good a price as it seems, or is it not worth that much being a 2005 and having prior hail damage? I'm taking the lazy way out and asking all of you instead of doing the research myself. Thanks for any help you can provide. -

Imagine what would happen if you started respecting your own wishes of how to spend your time.
I see a world full of magic and stories. Artists, technologists and storytellers will come together to engender empathy!
In 100 years, design will be at the center of things, a benign and necessary force in all facets of human experience.
I dream of the power of individuals, whether alone or in small groups, to unleash their creative spirits, their imagination, and their talents to develop a wide range of innovation.
- John HockenberryDo I believe what I'm hearing from Don Norman, Larry Keeley and even Jamie Dimon? The corporate and civic models for collectivized action are not competing, they are not battling each other, they are not negating each other, they are actually merging into a new identity altogether.
One hundred years from now, the world will go about its work unhampered by systems of inequality.
Imagine an Africa with women leading it into the future. They would not just be left to pick up the pieces after war. They would be integral to averting conflict in the first place.
I dream of […] a transformation in collective consciousness resulting in a peaceful, just, sustainable, healthy, and joyful world.
No doubt you've heard the old business cliché that hope is not a strategy. I disagree. Hope is a sustainable value that inspires us to see the world as a source of meaning.
Technology will advance to humans the ability to touch objects to gain the physical, emotional and historical experience behind each thing.
By fusing technology with telepathy, we could simultaneously look to the past and the future to generate solutions to current problems.
In the future, I hope people will enjoy and work with the light and color the world has to offer; go out on a limb and turn dreams and ideas into reality.
- John HockenberryHave the courage to create a work in stone that vanishes before your very eyes. It's the model for dreaming from artist Dale Chihuly who describes his wall of ice project in Jerusalem. If you create a powerful model for conveying the importance of taking risks, you can get people to take a leap, and if enough people jump… then you've really got something!
Gender, race, sexuality, ideology, and faith are just going to be unimportant characteristics that will not define ourselves.
Dream coming soon…
Life is no longer about working to make money to buy "stuff." It is about making the best decisions possible together to make systems work better, so we can enjoy our time together.
Being inspired is not a luxury. It is a right.
We are revolutionaries, evolutionaries, and solutionaries finding the power within ourselves to make the world anew.
No one can predict the future with any certainty. But I look forward to the day when the United States of America gets its mojo back—and it's not 100 years away, either.
- John HockenberryDreams are not relaxing. This is no daydream. Look at the potential conflicts in some of the approaches. America's resurgence in some of the dreams is pitted against a more global vision that puts planet above nation. There is the call for collective action and the yearning for simple individual changes.

Led by standout offensive performances from freshman Morgan Beil (St. Louis, Mo./Marquette) and sophomore Ellen Vanden Berg (Little Chute, Wis./Little Chute), the Valparaiso volleyball team swept Loyola 3-0 (25-14, 25-16, 25-14) at the Athletics-Recreation Center Friday evening to extend their winning streak to three matches.
"I've been really proud of this team in the last two weeks, because we've had to adjust our lineup to compensate for injuries in various places on the floor," said Crusader head coach Carin Avery. "Thankfully, this year is probably the most depth we've had in terms of the number of players who can step in at any given point, and I think we saw it again tonight."
Beil registered kills on each of her first eight swings of the match en route to a .769 hitting percentage, finishing the evening with 10 kills on 13 attacks without a hitting error. Her .769 hitting percentage was the fifth-best in Crusader history in a three-set match. Meanwhile, Vanden Berg tied Beil for match-high honors with 10 kills, posting her 10 terminations on 15 swings with just one error to hit at a .600 clip for the match. The duo led the Crusaders as Valpo hit .394 as a team on Friday, posting 46 kills on 94 swings with just nine attack errors.
"Obviously our middles, both Morgan and Ellen, did a fantastic job tonight," said Avery. "But in order to convert like that in the middle, you have to have great passing, great defense and great choices by your setter. It's really a total team effort when your middles do so well."
Vanden Berg helped the Crusaders claim an early lead in set one, posting three kills and combining with redshirt freshman Lindsey Hauch (Coloma, Mich./Coloma) on a block during a 10-2 run that gave Valpo a 14-5 advantage. Loyola closed back to within 17-11, but the Crusaders responded with five straight points, including a trio of kills by Hauch, to take control, and a Rambler attack error eventually ended the frame in Valpo's favor.
The Crusaders needed even less time to take control of set two, opening the frame with a 7-1 run that featured two kills from sophomore Janelle Hobbs (Hartland, Wis./Arrowhead). Loyola would fight back to trail just 12-9, but Valpo answered with four straight points, including kills by junior Mary Dent (Chicago, Ill./Von Steuben) and senior Jenny Pokorny (Geneva, Ill./Geneva) to extend its lead to seven points. The Crusaders' lead never fell below six points the rest of the way, with a kill by senior Amy Groesbeck (Winfield, Ill./Wheaton North) sending Valpo into the in-game break up two sets to none.
Again, an early-set run would give Valpo all the breathing room it would need in the final frame. Leading 5-4, back-to-back Vanden Berg kills jump-started a 7-1 spurt which increased the Crusaders' lead out to 12-5. Then, later in the set with the score 15-9, Dent and sophomore Sarah Dooms (Greenwood, Ind./Center Grove) posted kills during a 5-1 run that pushed the lead up into double figures. Another kill by Dent proved to be the match-ender as Valpo concluded the clean sweep.
Dent posted seven kills to supplement the ten apiece by Valpo's two middles, while Hauch added six kills on .375 hitting, not committing an attack error. Pokorny handed out 35 assists, tallied nine digs and also chipped in four kills on just nine attacks. Vanden Berg also led the defensive charge at the net, helping out on six of Valpo's seven team blocks, while junior Taylor Root (Jenison, Mich./Jenison) paced the back line with 11 digs.
Mary Kate Styler posted nine kills to lead Loyola (4-15, 1-9 Horizon) on Friday night. Cat Languido led all players, registering 13 digs.
Valparaiso (16-8, 7-3 Horizon) looks to make it four straight victories Saturday afternoon, as the Crusaders host Green Bay at 4 p.m. All the action can be seen live on the Horizon League Network, with links to the live video and live stats available at www.valpoathletics.com.

This may be one of the most important decisions you have to make in your life and it may decide whether you'll have a happy marriage and will also affect your children. There are no exact rules for everyone as God deals with us individually and we also live in different cultures where some of the less important matters differ. But here are some guidelines:
It may help to read Genesis 24 through carefully. It deals with someone who was looking for a bride for a young man and gives us some good principles to follow.
1. Look for a Christian wife /husband that suits you. Do not marry a girl/man who is not a Christian. Dating non Christians Read Genesis 24:3-4 as well as 2 Corinthians 6:14-15.
2. Trust the Lord that He will show you in some way who the right one is (Genesis 24:7).
3. Pray that the Lord will show you the right person (Genesis 24:12).
4. Look for someone who is helpful and caring and outward looking (Genesis 24:17-22).
5. As far as possible look for someone who has not slept with other girls / men oe women (Genesis 24:16). But then you should also see to it that you keep yourself from this kind of lifestyle that is considered extremely unhelpful (1 Thessalonians 4:38).
6. If you want to know where to find the right kind of partner be like a fisherman. When he wants to catch fish, he goes where the fish are, the river or lake or sea. If you want to find a Christian partner, you should go to church or the youth group where Christian people meet!!
If you pray that God will guide you in this and follow these guidelines you can be sure that God will lead you to the right person or at least in the right direction if it is not your time to get married. Be patient - sometimes it takes God years to work out in you his maturing process so you are ready when the right person comes along. He has promised to lead us if we follow Him (Psalm 37:47). You will know, by your love and respect for the person and by the fact that he/she returns that love and respect for you, that God has guided you. It is possible that some people may know at an early age who they will marry, but others do not. It is best these days to wait until after the age of 20 or 21for marriage, bacause you are more mature - 30 is a great age where you should have developed a good sense of self worth and know what suits you better than you did in the haste of your youth!:)
meet new people . . Are you always with the same people? Put yourself in a position to meet as many people as possible to up the chances of bumping into someone you like. This also means helping each other out. Be generous - introduce each other. Yes - we could all use help! ask someone out! Hey... did you know... it's ok to ask someone out!!? - even if you're a girl!!! Go on be brave an do the asking or at least make it easier for people to approach you if you havn't quite got the nerve:) You've seen someone you like - are you going to sit and wait for them for ever? - no - start a conversation! This is a lot easier for women than it is for guys so be approachable girls! 101 Tips on how to ask someboody or someone out on a date
How to start a conversation OK... top tip: forget every clever line you know. Just be natural, listen and ask questions. Here's some advice on making good conversation. be attractive & presentable - project confidence - a lesson from those in relationships! Why do people in relationships often appear so attractive? A simple answer is their relaxed manner and apparent self assuredness (obviously helped by having a partner!) Take on these characteristics and you'll be winner! Someone who appears desperate is a sure turn off. At the same time - don't let any anxiety cause you to appear uninterested. The highest compliment you can pay someone is your undivided attention. But this may involve asking questions and yes, - listening to the answers!! guide on how to be attractive

George Kriske was born in 1911 in Rochester, NY. He served in the US Army from 1930-1937 and joined the Bureau of Air Commerce as a Junior Radio Operator assigned to the Airway Communications Station in Ardmore, Oklahoma and subsequently worked as a relief radio operator throughout the southwestern United States. In 1939 he became interested in Air Traffic Control which was still in its infancy and went to work in the Fort Worth Air Route Traffic Control Center. During World War II he served as Chief Controller at Fort Worth Center and in the Oklahoma and Tulsa Control Towers as a controller and instructor. He then put in a two year tour of duty as the Civil Aeronautics Administration Liaison Officer to Headquarters Strategic Air Command USAF in Omaha, Nebraska where he was assigned to the Staff of General Curt LeMay. While in this post he was assigned to the United Kingdom and Western Europe to survey the air groundand air traffic capabilities of the various countries operating North Atlantic Air Traffic Control systems to determine if they could satisfactorily handle the world-wide deployment of Strategic Air Command Aircraft. In 1965 he moved to FAA Headquarters and was Chief of the Air Traffic Service Evaluation Staff until his retirement in 1967 with over 37 years of government service.

WTO Doha Round Bulletin
Week ending 4 June 2004 (Issue 2004/17)
Key Issues
- APEC Trade Ministers Meeting
- African Union Trade Ministers Meeting
- Dispute Settlement Review
- Forthcoming meetings in Geneva
- Contact us
APEC Trade Ministers Meeting
Mr Vaile is attending a meeting of APEC Ministers responsible for Trade in Pucon, Chile on 4-5 June 2004. The meeting will focus on ways APEC can support the Doha Agenda. A report will be included in next week's bulletin.
African Union Trade Ministers Meeting
The African Union Ministers of Trade Conference was held in Kigali, Rwanda from 27-28 May 2004. The Conference reviewed the current state of the Doha Round negotiations, and adopted a "Kigali Consensus" paper on the post-Cancun Doha Work Programme (which can be accessed at: http://www.uneca.org/cfm/2004/index.htm).
Rwandan President Kagame emphasised the importance of international trade in creating sufficient wealth to allow developing countries to grow out of poverty. While Africa contains about 12 per cent of the world's population, it represents less than 2 per cent of the global economy (in terms of international trade, gross domestic product and foreign direct investment). According to the President, "in Africa today, we recognise that trade and investment, and not aid, are pillars of development".
Dispute Settlement Review
The special session of the Dispute Settlement Body discussing the Dispute Settlement Understanding (DSU) Review met on 24 and 28 May 2004. At the meeting, members agreed with a suggestion by the Chair (Australian Ambassador to the WTO David Spencer) that the deadline for negotiations on the DSU Review be extended beyond the end of May 2004.

Burdock (Arctium lappa) is native to Europe and Asia, and if allowed, can grow in almost any uncultivated space. It was used by India�s traditional Ayurvedics and by the early Chinese for its very valuable health properties. In addition to its healthful effects, the stalks make a delicate vegetable, similar in flavor to asparagus when boiled, and a pleasant salad when eaten raw with vinegar.
Burdock is greatly cherished in the Orient, especially in Japan, where it is known as �Gobo�, and the root is used in everyday cooking. The name is a combination of bur, from the tenacious burrs, and dock, Old English referring to its large leaves. And, as its name suggests, it is a plant which bears seeds in big round bristly cones that stick to clothing and animal fur. Many modern-day herbalists continue to use Burdock for its health benefits.

Shutterfly Brand Refresh
Posted By Julie Vazquez On September 24, 2012 @ 4:57 pm In Photo Tips | 3 Comments
Hi I'm Vasco, Sr. Brand Art Director for Shutterfly.
When we were tasked to create a brand new look for Shutterfly, we were quite excited at the opportunity (that's an understatement actually). Our company had been growing tremendously over the years and needed an expression to reflect who we are and what we stand for. But how do you design for a company that's all about something so intimate, personal and meaningful–people's memories? We decided to start there- at a memory.
It really comes down to one thing- our whole look and feel is based on YOU, the customer. You come to Shutterfly to store, celebrate and share all the important moments in your life or rather, what's important to YOU–from a Saturday with the kids at the park to milestone events such as Mother's Day, birthdays and the holidays. Little moments mean big things, and ordinary photos to some, are perfect photos to you. That photo holds a memory, a web of senses- sights, smells, sounds- that takes you back to that place.
So, we set out to create an expression based on that—your life's stories.
We made conscious design choices to change the logo to reflect the excitement of receiving the "orange box" in the mail. We've heard time and time again that customers love the orange box because it's a symbol of something more–their memories and stories. We've also made our brand color a little richer and more contemporary. We like to call this orange color "Ignite orange" because it's full of spark and life. Lastly, the letters in the logo were inspired by the letter "U"- to reflect you, our customers. It was important for us to put meaning into everything we crafted for the new expression.
Most importantly, we made sure our photography expresses your moments- the emotions behind the photo are why you transform your photos into photo books, cards and gifts.
We hope you enjoy the new look as much as we have enjoyed creating it.

Show Information
Air Date: September 04, 2013
Host: Vic Eliason
Guest: Terence Jeffrey
Listen: MP3|Order
Terence Jeffrey is editor in chief of CNSNews.com and has held that position since 2007. Prior to that he served for more than a decade as editor of Human Events.
Should the U.S. take military action against Syria for the gas attack that has been reported by Western media outlets?
According to Terence, prudence is looking at a range of possible actions and deciding on the one that through due diligence will give you the optimum outcome. He believes that President Obama's 'red line' remark regarding Syria wasn't prudent at all because he doesn't have the power to follow through on such rhetoric without congressional authorization. Because of this attitude, Terence feels we are reaping the fruits of a leader who is now moving forward with an imprudent policy rather than using moral means to advance the liberty, security and prosperity of the American people.
Terence brings in the thoughts of Alexander Hamilton and George Washington to help listeners understand how the idea of 'war powers' is to be understood from the perspective of our Constitution. He noted that Congress has the power to control the armed forces. The President has the power of Commander in Chief. This means that after Congress places the armed forces into battle, the president becomes the leading commander. So unless there's the need to repel a sudden attack, the president doesn't have the power to initiate the use of military force.
He also explained the historic significance between the centuries-old taking of Cairo and Damascus and what's happening in those areas today. Muslim activities led them to eventually re-take Jerusalem during the Crusades and today one prominent Islamic voice seems to want to duplicate that process. When you look at what's been happening in recent times to secular government and military forces in Egypt and Syria, forces that have been at least tolerant of Christians, it appears that current U.S. policies regarding the Middle East are only encouraging Islamic forces as they keep their eye on Jerusalem.

Responding to this devotion, Blessed John XXIII ordered the insertion of the saint's name into the Roman Canon (Eucharistic Prayer I) in November 1962, a month after the start of the Second Vatican Council. |

Volvo Penta plans to reorganize work force
Posted onVolvo Penta of the Americas last week sent a letter to its customers that outlined plans to "realign expenses with the market conditions."
Earlier this fall, the company offered its professional work force early retirement or a voluntary separation package, and was able to make needed adjustments almost exclusively from volunteers, company president and CEO Clint Moore said.
"In the next few weeks, we will share with you specific information about our reorganization, and the identification of key contacts within Volvo Penta," Moore wrote. "You will see that our retiring colleagues overwhelmingly represented the administrative side of our business and not customer support."
The changes affect only business in the United States, not Volvo Penta Canada. Volvo Penta of the Americas is based in Chesapeake, Va.
"We intend to use our financial strength and resources from the Volvo Group to come out of this downturn in an even stronger position despite the uncertainties and challenges that lie ahead," Moore said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Authorities say a seven-hour standoff with a distraught gunman at a Los Angeles veterans' hall has ended peacefully.
Police say the 52-year-old man left the building and was arrested at about 2:30 p.m. Friday. Earlier, a SWAT team fired tear gas inside the hall but the man lobbed one cannister back out of a window.
Police say the man, who isn't a veteran, was despondent over a relationship when he entered the Disabled American Veterans hall in the San Fernando Valley at about 7:30 a.m. with what appeared to be a shotgun.
Police say at one point the man threatened to kill himself.
About a dozen nearby homes were evacuated during the standoff.

I am a stay at home mom of 2 amazing boys, 9 months, and 2 1/2 yrs. I went to culinary school for 3 years, specializing in pastries. Although, now I prefer to cook as well as bake. I love to entertain family and friends. I love to cook these huge meals, with several courses. Before I had children I would spend days in the kitchen preparing these fabulous meals. Now I don't have the time, so I try cook simple and delicious food. I always try to buy organic produce and use the best quality ingredients.
I love all types of foods, except curries, and weird body parts.
