Other Pets at Trenton Cats Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Princess Blue, a West Trenton Russian Blue cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Russian Blue for sale in West Trenton, or seeking a Russian Blue cat from a breeder in West Trenton.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in West Trenton already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a West Trenton breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Russian Blue breeders who help with Russian Blue rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in West Trenton paves the way for another one to be saved.

Smith Prophecy Goggle
Laid out in Snowmass
I bought these on a Thursday. On a Friday I collided with a friend of mine (who I could see perfectly out of the spherical lens, the crash was his fault, not mine, I was in the air) at 45+. I hit him then the ground with my big fat face that the Prophecy's fit nicely. I got a pretty good black eye, and some attention from the ladies, but what I was really concerned with was how my sick looking new goggles had handled the wreck...
Not a scratch on the frame or lens! These things went to bat for me, actually I was the one that felt like I was hit with a bat, but they protected my face, and still look fresh to death!
I have a top offering from almost every goggle company out there, and every time I put on my Smith Prophecy's I think, "why can't the optics in all my goggles be like this?"
Smith's are just better!

A Fire-specced Chevy Grand Prix
We've added her pics to our WoW license plate gallery, where you can see players of all specs and classes sharing their love for the World of Warcraft through their favorite mode of transportation. It's touching, really, although it does provide an interesting insight into the kinds of cars we drive around: cheap ones, by the look of it. Blizzard's got all of our car money, apparently.

IT Services Advisement: Strong Passwords
In the past few months, there has been a surge of online hacking and phishing schemes. IT Services would like to take a moment to address account security and encourage members of our campus community to ensure they have strong passwords.
Weak passwords are passwords that are easily guessed by unauthorized users. Examples include "1234", "password", "password1234", etc. Also, passwords that match the mailbox username are weak. A weak password may enable unauthorized access to email messages or it may enable an unauthorized user to send spam from the compromised account.
Strong passwords are case-sensitive and contain at least eight (8) characters including letters, numbers and symbols. Change your passwords regularly. Store your passwords in a secure location and do not share them with others.
IT Services response to compromised Armstrong accounts. If suspicious account activity is brought to IT Services' attention, we will investigate the account, determine if any actions are necessary, and work with the user to reconcile the account. If you believe one of your Armstrong accounts has been compromised, please contact the IT Services Helpdesk at(912) 344-2518 or email@example.com
Please use this opportunity to review your accounts and ensure that you have strong passwords. For more information and resources about IT Security, please visit our IT Services Security Resources Page

Walcott, Ozil and Rosicky stand out in Arsenal win over Brighton in FA Cup
BRIGHTON, England -- Three quick thoughts on Arsenal's 3-2 win at Brighton in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday afternoon.
1. Arsenal on a mission
It didn't fit with the shock patterns of this FA Cup weekend, but Arsenal's 3-2 win over Brighton and Hove Albion does suggest something might be building for their season. Arsene Wenger's side seemed so assured from the outset after last week's mood-changing 2-0 win over Manchester City and had what must be one of its smoothest attacking performances...

Repertoire tip "Summer Night Dream"
Pan, goblins, fairies and elves
The Composers of the romantic era were particularly inspired by this world of fantasy.
"How now, spirit! Wither wander you?" asks Puck. The fairy replies: "Over hill, over dale, thorough bush, thorough briar, over park, over pale, thorough flood, thorough fire, I do wander everywhere, swifter than the moon's sphere. For I serve the Fairy Queen." It is with these words that the curtain rises to Mendelssohn's incidental music to Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream. Composers have always been fascinated by the realms between dream and reality, night and day, and mythical creatures have often fueled their imaginations. It is a world ruled by Pan, goblins, fairies and elves, who appear in haunted sites, deep in the forest, in the middle of the night. Composers of the romantic era were particularly inspired by this world of fantasy. The upcoming 200th anniversary of the birth of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy in 2009 has prompted us to present a selection of works on the theme "Midsummer – Night – Dream" from our opera and concert repertoire:
Bantock, Sappho
Berlioz, Les Nuits d'Été - Summer nights
Berlioz, Symphonie fantastique
Busoni, Nocturne symphonique
Hölszky, An die Nacht
Lachenmann, Notturno
Matthus, "Ich sah dein Licht …"
Mendelssohn, A midsummer Night's Dream
Mussorgsky, A Night on the Bare Mountain
Schubert "Nacht und Träume"
Wagner, "The Fairies" - Ouverture
Weber, "Oberon" Ouverture
Zender/Debussy, Five Préludes

Riverside is located in southeast St. Clair County in the central part of the state, beside Logan Martin Lake on the Coosa River. It has a mayor/city council form of government.
The Riverside area was first settled in the 1840s. Founded in 1882 as the town of Readman, when the first post office opened, it was renamed Riverside in 1883 and incorporated in 1886. In the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century, Riverside was a center for logging and sawmills, among other industries, aided by a rail line of the Southern Railway. As the surrounding forests were clear cut, the lumber industry left the area.
The Coosa River could be crossed in the area only by a ferry until 1930, when the John H. Bankhead Bridge was opened. The ferry was discontinued when the bridge stopped charging a toll to cross. Logan Martin Dam was completed on the Coosa River in 1960 and Logan Martin Lake had filled by1964, and, with the aid of federal grants, parts of the town and the line of the Southern Railway had to be moved upland to accommodate the 14-foot rise in the level of the Coosa River. At the same time, new lakefront property was created, the sale of which benefited the town. A portion of the original town now lies at the bottom of the lake.
A new city hall and fire station complex was built in 1969. Riverside today relies primarily on tourism resulting from its location on Logan Martin Lake, which draws people from throughout the state.
Riverside's population according to the 2010 Census was 2,208. Of that number, 87.5 percent of respondents identified themselves as white, 10.6 percent as African American, 1.1 percent as Hispanic or Latino, 0.9 percent as two or more races, 0.7 percent as Asian, and 0.2 percent as Native American. The town's median household income, according to 2010 estimates, was $65,020, and the per capita income was $29,020.
According to 2010 Census estimates, the work force in Riverside was divided among the following industrial categories:
· Educational services, and health care and social assistance (21.3 percent)
· Manufacturing (15.7 percent)
· Professional, scientific, management, and administrative and waste management services (9.8 percent)
· Retail trade (9.6 percent)
· Transportation and warehousing and utilities (9.0 percent)
· Construction (6.8 percent)
· Finance, insurance, and real estate, rental, and leasing (5.9 percent)
· Public administration (5.5 percent)
· Other services, except public administration (5.4 percent)
· Arts, entertainment, recreation, and accommodation and food services (4.3 percent)
· Information (3.2 percent)
· Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, and extractive (2.3 percent)
· Wholesale trade (1.1 percent)
Students in Riverside attend St. Clair County schools; no public schools lie within the town limits.
Interstate Highway 20 runs east-west through the southern part of town. U.S. Highway 78 runs southwest-northeast through the extreme southern tip of town.
Events and Places of Interest
Logan Martin Lake, at 15,263 acres and 273 miles of shoreline, provides a range of water sports, including fishing, boating, water skiing, sailing, and swimming. The Merry Oakes Inn is listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage. Cheaha State Park is located about 25 miles east of town.
Since 1999, Riverside has hosted the Amateur Radio Relay League Field Day, a two-day event in June for amateur radio operators
to test their skills against each other. It is held at the Riverside City Park, which also has baseball fields and a walking

Here is the link to the (gulp) 900-page farm bill print put out by the Senate Agriculture Committee. This document will be added to and subtracted from, notably in the Senate Agriculture Committee "markup" session next Wednesday.
Here is how Sen. Stabenow's office summarizes the document:
Chairwoman's Summary of the 2012 Farm Bill Committee Print
Friday, April 20, 2012
The Committee Print of the 2012 Farm Bill reforms farm policy, consolidates and streamlines programs, and will reduce the deficit by $23 billion. This bill saves taxpayers money while strengthening initiatives that help farmers, ranchers and small business owners create American jobs.
Eliminates Direct Payments while Strengthening Risk Management
Farmers face unique risks unlike other businesses. Weather and market conditions outside a producer's control can have devastating effects. A risk management system that helps producers stay in business through a few bad seasons ensures that Americans always have access to a safe and plentiful food supply. The proposal:
• Eliminates direct payments. Farmers will no longer be paid for crops they are not growing, will not be paid for acres that are not actually planted, and will not receive support absent a drop in price or yields.
• Consolidates two remaining farm programs into one, and will give farmers the ability to tailor risk management coverage—meaning better protection against real risks beyond a farmer's control.
• Strengthens crop insurance and expands access so farmers are not wiped out by a few days of bad weather.
Consolidates and Streamlines Programs
By eliminating duplicative programs, funds are concentrated in the areas in which they will have the greatest impact, making them work better for producers.
• By ending duplication and consolidating programs, the bill eliminates dozens of programs under the Agriculture Committee's jurisdiction.
• For example, the bill consolidates 23 existing conservation programs into 13 programs, while maintaining the existing tools farmers and landowners need to protect and conserve land, water and wildlife.

We've always loved this old fashioned French style rod mechanism for long glass doors, but kept the rest of the design nice and simple without too much detailing around the top. That way it doesn't dictate what style of house or even what room it will fit in. We've seen our customers even use these in bathrooms with nice glass bottles of perfume and towels on display to create a treatment room feel, which looks fantastic.

Music Muffled in Star Wars Game
The massively multiplayer online game Star Wars Galaxies gives gamers a chance to build their own weapons and armor, fly spacecraft, build cities and even train to become Jedis.
But in this world of make-believe, composing music is forbidden.
Players can play Wookiees or bounty hunters and even musicians -- like those in the cantina band from the original Star Wars.As musicians, the characters play pretend, virtual instruments like the slitherhorn, ommni box or the nalargon, but are limited to a handful of canned tunes. Lawyers at Sony Online Entertainment and LucasArts envision a legal nightmare if musicians were to re-create music copyrighted in the physical world.
"If we allowed someone to play anything they want, they could play a song by Madonna and then we'd have licensing issues," said Julio Torres, a producer for Star Wars Galaxies at LucasArts. "We don't want to give them the option to try, because the bottom line is, if we open that gate, they will go through it," he said.
Torres said the company also wants to keep the game consistent with the Star Wars environment. "To have a player in our game create a song that is Jon Bon Jovi or Metallica would throw people out of the fantasy," Torres said.
But players say making music would add to the fantasy and make the game more fun. They just want more freedom to innovate.
"We'd like to be as creative as we can," said Jonathan Mendez, who has been a "musician" in SWG for more than a year. "I personally have some music background and I would like to be able to use that to make some music."
The role of musicians in the game is to help other players recover from battle fatigue and lift their spirits. Combatants visit a cantina to listen to music and receive a "buff," which gives them added mental strength.
The ability to make their own music has been an issue from the early days of the game, said one former player.
"The entertainer and musician community had been wondering for a while why it is that they couldn't make their own music," said Brian Srivastava, a computer science student from Peterborough, Ontario. He said it was a top issue when the game was first developed in 2003.

The White Horse Trail
The White Horse Trail is a 90 mile walk taking in all 8 existing white horses cut
into the Wiltshire hills. This is a quiet and peaceful part of Southern England,
steeped in history and mysticism, much of it designated as an Area of Outstanding
Natural Beauty. It incorporates sections of other long distance trails, such as
The Ridgeway (said to be the oldest road in Europe), the Wansdyke, the Wessex Ridgeway
and the relatively new Mid-
Roundway is virtually at the centre of the Trail with no point being more than 14 miles away by road, so Southdown is in a perfect location for those wishing to walk all or part of the Trail without the hassle of finding accommodation every night and carrying everything with you or arranging luggage transfers. Only one lot of unpacking and repacking to do too!
The Trail also passes through or nearby to the towns of Westbury and Marlborough and a number of villages, large and small. There is a section which includes prehistoric Avebury and Silbury Hill, and the Kennet Long Barrow nearby are worth a short detour. The terrain is varied and during the 90 miles walkers will also encounter valleys, woods, hills, open fields and plenty of wildlife.
The Trail can be taken up at various points but some sections are fairly remote and it is possible to walk 10 or more miles without seeing anyone else. There are some pubs and cafés en route but they may not be open on arrival. Others can be reached via detours off the Trail but it makes more sense to take a packed lunch to avoid going hungry!
If you wish to use public transport to get to your start and finish points each day, we can check bus times for you .Alternatively, we can provide you with individual circular walks to include each of the horses. Experienced walkers might wish to walk the entire Trail but others prefer shorter walks. To that end we have devised separate Northern and Southern Loops, each easily managed in 5 days walking, averaging around 10 miles per day. There is also a separate section which visits Avebury and we have incorporated it into a 12 mile walk so that you don't miss any part of the White Horse Trail.
We may be able to provide transport for group bookings -

This article is from the WebMD Feature Archive
So, once you have your priorities in the right place, how can you become one of the fitness faithful?
WebMD has compiled 10 tips for making fitness a habit in your life. To create the list, we sought the help of Klein, along with long-term fitness buff Roy Stevens and his wife, Wanda, who is transforming her hit-and-miss exercise schedule into an almost-daily habit.
1. Do a variety of activities you enjoy. And remember, there's no rule that says you have to go to a gym or buy equipment.
"We've shifted our perceptions from regimented exercise to physical activity," says Klein, assistant professor of exercise, sports and leisure studies, and director of gerontology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
Having a variety of activities -- weight lifting, walking, running, tennis, cycling, aerobics classes -- will ensure that you can do something regardless of the weather or time of day.
2. Commit to another person. "The social aspect of exercise is important for me," says Wanda Stevens, a stay-at-home mom in Austin, Texas. "I'll let myself off, but if I've agreed to walk with a friend after dinner, I won't let them down."

Davante Adams to Attend 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere
May 27, 2014 LOS ANGELES - Former Fresno State wide receiver Davante Adams is one of 40 top rookies from the 2014 NFL Draft class headed to Los Angeles May 29-31 to learn the business of football at the 20th annual NFLPA Rookie Premiere. Adams was a second round draft pick (No. 53 overall) of the Green Bay Packers and is the only former Mountain West player participating in the 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere. A robust roster of business partners will be on site to grow their brands and promote their products through the utilization of group player rights facilitated by NFL Players Inc. (NFLPI). The 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere partners include Panini America, Topps, Nike, EA SPORTS, Pepsi, USA TODAY Sports, Bose, élevée, Uber, Original Retro Brand, and Fandeavor. The three-day event, hosted by NFLPI, the marketing and licensing arm of the NFLPA, will also feature one of the most thrilling moments for any rookie - wearing their official Nike team uniforms for the first time during photo shoots with trading card companies Panini America and Topps at LA Memorial Coliseum. "There is no event more important for NFL Players Inc. partners than NFLPA Rookie Premiere," said Panini America Vice President of Marketing Jason Howarth. "The content that's captured and the long-term relationships developed with players during the week set the stage for our entire NFL product calendar and are key elements in driving our products for the 2014 season and beyond." Throughout the event, players will gain information to assist in the development of their professional careers. The union's annual orientation includes seminars focused on financial planning, brand building, group player rights, and social media best practices. Among the featured guest speakers are former and active NFL players Marshall Faulk, Willie McGinest, Torry Holt, Brandon Williams, Daunte Culpepper, Kevin Bentley, Jamaal Charles, Israel Idonije, and Austin Pettis. Additional speakers include NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith and NFLPI President Keith Gordon.
"NFLPA Rookie Premiere is an unparalleled opportunity for our partners to engage with tomorrow's most influential athletes today," said NFL Players Inc. President Keith Gordon. "For the first time as professionals, players will learn about the business of football from fellow players, union leadership, and industry experts as they start to build a game plan to succeed beyond their playing careers." Launched in Los Angeles in 1994, NFLPA Rookie Premiere is unique across professional sports as the event provides business partners with unmatched access to many of the NFL's most promising and marketable young stars. Each year, NFLPI facilitates approximately 100 individual player service deals for NFLPA Rookie Premiere participants. The event also generates numerous opportunities for current and former players. Media and fans can follow official accounts on Twitter (@NFLPA, @NFLPlayersInc), Facebook (NFLPA), Google+ (+NFLPA), Instagram (NFLPA) and YouTube (NFL Players Association) and via #RookiePremiere for updates, exclusive photos, video, and news throughout 2014 NFLPA Rookie Premiere.

Princess Anne County Training School was the first high school for African Americans in Princess Anne County, now known as Virginia Beach. The school was a result of the African American community in the 1930s working together to raise money to build a school so their children could receive a proper education.
The initial money raised was used to purchase four acres of land on Witchduck Road. The land and $2000 were given to the school board but it made no attempt to build a school. So in 1934 a temporary school was established on the property of the Union Baptist Church. In 1938, a four-room high school was finally built. Between 1949 and 1962 several additions were made to the school.
In 1962 the Princess Anne County Training School changed its name to Union Kempsville High School. And in 1969 Union Kempsville High School graduated its last class due to the city-wide integration of schools.
Today the legacy of the school continues with the establishment of the museum which shares stories of family, community, sacrifice, and the importance of education.

I have preordered 200 Kidling Daffodils from Colorblends for the fall. I am planning on planting them in a couple 14 ft by 2 ft raised beds that I have out front.
I do have other perennials in those beds but would like some springtime color, don't want to worry about the leaves looking ugly for a couple months, and thought that minis would be a good choice for the beds. The other perennials (heuchera's, brunnera, hostas, tiarellas) could hide the daff foilage for the summer. How much do minis spread? Are they going to crowd out the perennials? Or will it be ok to plant in there? The reason I ask is... I did a bonehead move once by planting mini iris in the bed and boy did they multiply!! By year two also! I ended up having to get them out of there before I strangled the other perennials with the iris! :) |

They'll be fine. They don't spread like mini bearded iris do. They play well with others. |
Thanks buyorsell! |

One unanimous vote and a celebratory "wahoo!" from President Pat Long later, it was official: Baker University will break ground this fall on a 9,000-square-foot addition to its historic science building—one that has been in existence since the 1920s—and give the facility a complete face-lift destined to help recruit the best and brightest high school science, mathematics and computer science scholars.
Board of Trustees Chairman Hoot Gibson stood up, scanned the room and smiled. "I know this is a little impromptu," he said, acknowledging the motion was out of turn according to the day's agenda. "But I am just so excited for this. We've talked about this project for 10 years. I move this board passes the plans to add on to and completely renovate Mulvane."

noun \ˈjē-ˌnōm\Definition of GENOME
Origin of GENOME
Other Genetics Terms
noun \ˈjē-ˌnōm\ (Medical Dictionary)Medical Definition of GENOME
Variants of GENOME
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)all the genetic content contained within an organism. An organism's genome is made up of molecules of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that form long strands that are tightly wound into chromosomes, which are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic organisms and in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic organisms. Chromosomes that are unique to certain organelles within a cell, such as mitochondria or chloroplasts, are also considered a part of an organism's genome. A genome includes all the coding regions (regions that are translated into molecules of protein) of DNA that form discrete genes, as well as all the noncoding stretches of DNA that are often found on the areas of chromosomes between genes. The sequence, structure, and chemical modifications of DNA not only provide the instructions needed to express the information held within the genome but also provide the genome with the capability to replicate, repair, package, and otherwise maintain itself. The human genome contains approximately 25,000 genes within its 3,000,000,000 base pairs of DNA, which form the 46 chromosomes found in a human cell. In contrast, Nanoarchaeum equitans, a parasitic prokaryote in the domain Archaea, has one of the smallest known genomes, consisting of 552 genes and 490,885 base pairs of DNA. The study of the structure, function, and inheritance of genomes is called genomics. Genomics is useful for identifying genes, determining gene function, and understanding the evolution of organisms.

Whether to Use Bleach to Prepare Milkweed Leaves Fed to Monarch Caterpillars
In an effort to prevent bacterial infections to the larvae and then to the adult butterflies, forum members use varying methods:
Posted by susanlynne48: I was reading the FAQ info on discouraging and preventing the spread of OE in Monarchs, and that one of the solutions suggested rinsing the milkweed in a 10-15% solution of bleach and then rinsing well before feeding it to the cats. Does anyone do this? I have not been doing this and wondered if I should be. Thought perhaps some of the rest of you might have opinions on it.
Posted by tdogmom: Personally, I don't do it nor would I encourage it. A Dr. Altizer recomended the method. I know that there is even some sort of proprietary product available from Educational Sciences (I think that Live Monarch also sells something) but then again I just don't think that it is 'safe' to provide something like this...but, that's MY opinion.
I think the best thing is to check for OE in the adults and make sure that you don't have infected ones out there in your yard. I know this is not always possible, particularly if you have 'gazillions' of them flying about. But doing what you can sure as heck helps.
I do one thing with my Milkweed and whether or not that helps I do not know...I wipe each and every leaf I feed with those anti-bacterial Kleenex tissues. I doubt that this is really doing much to help with OE but I have found that it has helped to reduce the Black Death caused by the bacteria and virus that can be found lurking about in the soil...
I wipe every single leaf with the tissues THEN I wipe them one more time with a paper towel (now you can see why it takes me forever to feed the caterpillars!). I have never used any solutions of any sort on the Milkweed leaves. I haven't had a problem with OE on the Monarchs I raise myself-only with those I collect in the wild. I separate cats & eggs so it can get to be quite hectic when I raise Monarchs!Posted by connie-k: I soak all of my milkweed leaves in a 5-10 percent solution of bleach for about 5 min. and then rinse and rinse and rinse. I then stand up my leaves so that the water drains off and then I refridgerate the leaves and use as needed. I have not had any OE and I have not lost any to parasites or Black Death--I have raise well over 500 this year.
Posted by linda_centralokzn6: I have been doing a 15% bleach solution, soaking leaves for 20 min., and letting set in rinse water for 20 min., and then rinsing thoroughly the milkweed leaves and cuttings for about 2 weeks now. Then it takes about another 20 min. for the leaves to dry. By that time the poor milkweed is pretty darned wilted!!! No OE yet, but the leaves look pretty pathetic.
Coming from a medical background, I would question 5 minutes being long enough to sterilize anything. Perhaps, 15 min. would be long enough. And IF the leaves were rinsed really well, I wonder if the the letting sit in rinse water for 20 min. could be omitted. I've still got about 20 min. drying time, before they're dry enough to feed the cats.
I believe that I will back off to the 10% solution.Posted by msrpaul: Cleanliness is a great thing, but bleaching in my mind is extreme...of course, that depends on your feeding method. I have found the best way to feed cats is to have plenty of MW both wild in the garden, and in many many pots that I can use and rotate. I gather the small cats from the yard as I find them, and place them on the plants in my garage tent. This is by no means an immaculate area, but I do hose the floor daily to rinse the frass (poop), and I rotate the pots as they eat the leaves down. My biggest chore is moving cats so that they have plenty to eat....using cut MW is even more labour intensive, requires a lot of container maintenance, and wilts quickly. It's my last resort if my pots are eaten. This is a matter of preference, I think Connie is more experienced in this than I, and I have contemplated this method, but I have been well over 95% success, compared to about 10% in nature...so I'm happy with that.

Getting straight A's in college? Aiming for it?
I got to the article "Twentysomething: Why I regret getting straight A's in college" from a link in some blog post. I really enjoyed reading the article- May be because i am not the one getting straight A's or may be i enjoy reading such career related articles. Its about a person, slogging his time out to get A's and as the article mentions he got 37 A's and only 3 B's. Can one imagine that? I cannot Even i know people who are so obsessed with the grades Anyways coming back to the article the author has put forward his experiences of being someone with loads of A's to his credit. At the end of the article the author mentions that anyone looking for a masters should stay away from the post. Even i want to say the same thing. People aiming for masters- Stay Away- I need not do that- As i am not going for masters

One Response to Getting straight A's in college? Aiming for it?
Xamuel says:
Straight A's isn't that big of a deal when it comes to getting into grad school. I actually pulled off a perfect 4.0 in undergrad, and only got accepted by 2 out of 8 grad schools. Probably because I was overconfident in myself and didn't study for the GRE hardly at *all* Here's the article I wrote about my own four-point-ohh experience: http://www.xamuel.com/straight-a/

Twice a year a lady in my mom's town hosts a consignment sale. Apparently it started in her home and has grown to a local church building. My friend Kelly had two early bird passes, which she kindly shared with me. We went Wednesday afternoon to get some deals. Kelly has three kids and had some specific stuff she was looking for. I am pretty set for my kids but went looking for good deals on summer clothes. I hear summer lasts longer in Texas.
I did well. I would've gotten a lot more, but I kept reminding myself that all I buy has to fit in the van on the way to TX. That limited my impulse buys. (as my man sighs in relief)
I got another bathing suit and rash guard for Buddy. His current one is 6-12 months, so I don't think it'll make it all summer. I couldn't resist the plaid overalls…too cute!
This year's selection of shoes wasn't great for the sizes my kids wear, but I did find a pair of Crocs…with Mickey Mouse shapes! Baby Girl loves them! I also found her a bathing suit for $2. How can you go wrong at that price?
My best deals, though, were not clothes. The Melissa & Doug calendar was $3.50. Yes, you heard me. $3.50! Baby Girl gets confused about days and weeks, so I've been looking for something like this. I planned to get something when we got settled in our new home, but I wasn't about to pass up this deal. It came with the magnets for the date, days, holidays, etc. I also found a stack of 4 board books for $1.50. The Sandra Boynton book sold me (Oh My Oh My Oh Dinosaurs), but the other three are great, too.
In total, I spent $24 and change. When I got home my mom told me she wanted to get Baby Girl the calendar for her birthday. It retails at $24! So I'd say I did alright, wouldn't you?
On the last day of the sale almost everything is marked to 50% off (if the seller chooses to do so). My mom and I went this morning to see if there was anything left. I ended up getting more deals. They really didn't have a lot for 12 or 18 months, so poor Buddy didn't get anything. My mom assures me that he isn't upset about it.
Again, good deals! The most expensive thing was the Gap cable knit cardigan, and I paid $2.50 for it. I figured it would work over her lightweight dresses in the winter. The white shirt with the flower was $.50! I paid less than $8 for this stuff.
So, all in all, good deals for me this weekend. I am excited about what I got. Most of the clothing is name-brand. I'm not a name-brand snob, but if I can get it for cheaper than the cheap stuff…score!
I love this consignment sale. I will miss it in TX! The lady in charge and I have talked. If there isn't one in TX I'm going to look into starting one…down the road, when I'm a little more settled.
Do you have sales like this where you live?

Well as ya know my name is Heather of course. I am happily married to the love of my life Stephen. We been married for 8 years, and have 2 Daschunds name Whizzer and Precious. We are just now talking about expanding our family and sharing our love. We live in Mexia, Texas since 2001. I love to collect cookbooks and magazines with recipes in them. I love to cook and explore new ideas and new dishes. I am all for exotic foods. I don't have a favortie dish, as I make too many different things. My hubby would say his favorite is taco salad though. I have a myspace if anyone would like to be friends out there in cyber world lol. It is www.myspace.com/whizzybaby I would love to have more friends out there to chat with and maybe exchange food ideas with.
Comfort foods I think would be one of my favorites. I just enjoy making and tasting new foods also. I would have to say a good ol' steak would be on the top of my favorites though.

I have argued previously that liturgical time is political and that it froms the church in a particular sort of community. The way in which calendars are formulated are inevitably political. Calendars encode particular sorts of politics and generate particular sorts of persons and communities, what sort of polity and person is presupposed and evoked by the Christian liturgical calendar? Toward that question, I offer five theses about the theopolitical formation of ecclesial identity that the practice of the Christian year seeks to foster.
1. The Christian calendar forms the church to understand herself as a community who is a participant in the story of the triune God disclosed in Scripture and to understand that biblical story as the context in which the world is interpreted and engaged.
The Christian calendar begins its year in Advent, in anticipation of Christ's coming. It moves from anticipation to joy in the incarnation of Christ at Christmastide. In light of the incarnation, the church celebrates the life of Christ, rejoicing in the manifestation of his glory as the Son of God throughout the season of Epiphany. The church then journeys with Christ toward his sufferings in Jerusalem during the time of Lent and Holy Week. The church then rejoices as she is raised with Christ in his glorious resurrection during Easter and finally rehearses the coming of the Spirit to constitute the church in the celebration of Pentecost. All of these seasons, and the holidays inserted into each one of them serve as a means of participation on the part of the church in the story of God in Christ. The church, through her liturgies and celebrations offers a form of deep language, of thick description, through which she is invited to understand herself as a part of the story of Scripture. In celebrating the Christian year, one's fellow citizens cease to be one's fellow Americans (or British or Chinese, or what have you), and instead become the holy martyrs, prophets, patriarchs, and apostles of the Christian faith. In and through the rhythms of the Christian year, the church ceases to view the biblical story as some remote part of ancient history which they then apply to their lives, but rather discovers their lives recast into the biblical story itself, locating themselves within the triune drama of salvation.
2. The Christian calendar recasts the Christian understanding of personal identity within a narratival and ecclesial frame of reference.
In contrast to the secular American calendar which orients personal identity within the framework of American nationalism, familial sentimentality, and rugged individualism, the Christian calendar recasts our understanding and practice of personal identity within the framework of the narrative of Scripture and the communal life of the church. Within the rhythms of the Christian calendar we are invited to see ourselves, not as discrete individuals who are complete in and of ourselves, but rather as characters within the scriptural narrative whose identities are constituted in and through our participation in one another in the body of Christ.
3. The Christian calendar invites the church to order its daily life, seasonal celebrations, and familial and communal events in a Christocentric manner, relating all aspects of the ordinary to Christ's lordship and offering them to him as worship.
One of the most profound aspects of the formative power of the Christian calendar is its ability to seize one of the parts of life that has been so thoroughly claimed in by our late-capitalist culture: the ordinary. One of the supreme characteristics of our atomized capitalist culture is the way in which the practices of everyday life, personal relationships, and local economics are regulated by the secular calendar. We express our romantic love and attention on Valentines Day. We spend more money on gifts and traveling during the Christmas holidays than the rest of the year combined. The connection between economics and the calendar cannot be overestimated. One of the key functions of the secular calendar is to regulate how money is spent and on how commodities are exchanged. The Christian calendar invites us however, in the face of calendar of capitalist discipline, to refigure our way of spending our money, giving our time, and participating in our personal relationships. By making Holy Week, rather than Christmas the center of the year, the Christian calendar calls into question the ways in which the secular calendar forms people into consuming individuals who only view their participation in Church as the voluntary association of religious individuals whose true identity and allegiance lie elsewhere.
4. The Christian calendar nurtures a distinctively eschatological imagination, inviting the church to understand her own being and actions as bearing witness to, participating in, and anticipating the fullness of the triune God's eschatological kingdom.
Through immersing herself in the rhythms and seasons of the Christian year, the Christian community seeks to instill into her members an eschatological consciousness which generates a particular understanding of the nature and purpose of the church in the world. By viewing herself as a participant in the drama of the triune God, the church comes to understand herself thoroughly with reference to the kingdom of God rather than through the various reigning political orders in which she finds herself. As Scott Bader-Saye notes, in discussing the French Revolutionaries' introduction, not merely of a new regime, but a new calendar, "Despite the rise of modern conceptions of time as uniform, the revolutionaries understood that calendar functioned to name a politics and define a people." By naming time in the way that Christians do in their practice of the Christian year, they invoke a specifically eschatological imagination which encodes a particular politics, the politics of the kingdom of God. The Christian calendar, like the secular calendar should not be underestimated in its politically formative power. Through measuring each and every year in and through the life of Christ rather than through the veneration of the heroes and myths of America, the church has the ability to profoundly shape an eschatological imagination which calls into question the idolatries and sins of our world.
5. The Christian calendar orients the church to see her primary vocation as the worship of the Triune God, finding the summit and center of her life in the proclamation of the Word of God and the communion of the Eucharist.
Finally, the Christian calendar offers a distinctively ecclesiological contribution to the self-understanding of the church. Evangelicalism has been long critiqued for its lack of a substantive ecclesiology. Much of this, I would suggest derives from the evangelical propensity to view the church in instrumentalist terms. The church is often viewed by evangelicals as existing for the purpose of service, evangelism, or the edification of the individual Christian. However, the Christian calendar invites us to view the church, not as instrumental to any end other than the worship of God in gathering, interpersonal communion, and common life. The center of the Christian year lies in proclaiming the Word of God disclosed in Scripture and entering into its mysteries through the communal celebration of the Eucharist. It invites us to view the center of the church not as moral effort, personal uplifting or evangelistic activity, but rather unites all such elements of the church's life within an overarching vision of the faithful worship of the triune God by his people.

Android OS Tops Smartphone Market
136 million Android units shipped, making up 75% of the market.
The Android mobile operating system was found on three out of every four smartphones shipped in the third quarter of 2012, according to a recent report from International Data Corporation (IDC). The report says 136 million Android units were shipped, making up 75 percent of the roughly 181 million total smartphones shipped during the quarter. IDC notes that Android's growth rate of 91 percent was nearly double that of the overall market and that Samsung again led vendors in the Android phone space.
The report shows Apple's iOS in second place with 14.9 percent of market share, and BlackBerry in third at just over 4 percent at the end of the quarter. However, IDC points out that BlackBerry 10 is planned for 2013 and says "demand for BlackBerry and its wildly popular BBM service is strong within multiple key markets worldwide, and the number of subscribers continues to increase."
The largest decline was seen by Symbian, which fell to 2.3 percent – compared to 14.6 percent in 3Q11. The major vendors now supporting Symbian are transitioning to other operating systems and are expected to cease shipping Symbian-powered smartphones in 2013, IDC said.
Microsoft's Windows Phone shipped 3.6 million units worldwide; however, according to the report, that could change when multiple Windows Phone 8 smartphones reach the market in the fourth quarter. You can read IDC's press release here.

Pagans Motorcycle Gang Leader Pleads Guilty to Gun Charge
Baltimore, Maryland - Jay Carl Wagner, age 66, of Hagerstown, Maryland, pleaded guilty today to being a felon in possession of a firearm, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein.
According to the plea agreement, on May 9, 2007, the Maryland State Police (MSP) and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) executed a search warrant at the Wagner's home in Hagerstown Maryland, after members of MSP observed Wagner, a leader of the Pagan Motorcycle Club in Maryland, exit his home armed with what appeared to be a handgun. Agents recovered 19 firearms, at least one of which was stolen, and numerous quantities of ammunition of varying calibers.
Wagner faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison, followed by five years of supervised release. U.S. District Judge Benson E. Legg has scheduled sentencing for June 6, 2008 at 11:00 a.m.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein thanked the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Maryland State Police for their investigative work. Mr. Rosenstein commended Assistant United States Attorney James T. Wallner, who is prosecuting the case.

Chinese Takeaway With a Side Order of Compassion
The chips are down for fish and chips – at least according to a new study showing that Britain's favourite takeaway is now Chinese food. Fewer people tucking into fish suppers is certainly a good thing, as fish have no desire to be dragged out of the sea, killed, battered and served up in a greasy paper package. Vegans can also get behind this trend because all Chinese restaurants offer a tempting selection of animal-free options!
Here are some of our favourite widely available vegan Chinese dishes – … Read more.
