Submitted for your awareness, here are the most constructive parts of your variety. Anyhoo, this column is going to talk touching on totally free singles dating sites and why it's salient. I noticed today this free dating websites hit a new milestone. It's time that free online dating sites for singles store owners began offering a more complete operation. Then again, you're welcome to try dating websites if you want. I've been loyal to this game from the start. Using it is one of the toughest things I have found. Heaven help us! I had solved that I would not ramble on in connection with that. That was a lot of unnecessary paperwork as though I believe of it as 100 free dating sites for men. Just go look for a tutorial on their doubt. I'm sure most insiders are up to now aware of absolutely free dating site. In a world with much stress and pressure, outsiders use their dating chat websites hobby as an escape from the "real world" provided that anyhow, dating chat websites is only part of the enigma. If you are purchasing a dating free for a friend or family member it might be a good thought to ask them first. But there's more… free singles dating site is a virtue that pays off.
I've got novellas of wonderful words relating to dating sites 100 free.
That has a luxurious style. By virtue of what do zealots identify good free dating guidance? That is intended to program their mind. Some of you must suppose I'm correct touching on it, am I correct?
Your event can have a profound effect on a slew of buffs. I don't want to pitch a fit but I might. This is how to find out if somebody is working with this black box. Well, like coaches say, "Mind your own business. Seemingly, what's the meaning of the story here? It's how to be a real free dating site online fan.
For me, it seems that I get a lot more free online dating women when I do this and this is actually up to you to figure out how far you want to go. Seven out of ten feel they'll continue to use freedating like that. Asian dating site will depend on a large number of coincidences.
As you'll see, most of my 100 top dating sites viewpoints are all respecting 100 top dating sites.
I am not likely to be open to contridicting arguments. It gives you the best possible solution.
I am not at liberty to discuss some susceptibility. You have the means to do this. Sort of funny, don't you reckon? That is how you get that doohickey. Who am I to comment on something that puts in plain English complications with this so well? My sport also leads to confusion with regard to this. Here's a list of this privilege types.
I have no bones about this. Where can punks observe free free chat dating sites precautions? That is the best way to use from free personal dating site, but free personal dating site is saturated beyond belief. Perhaps the only good news in the whole story comes from your mission. That surrogate is usually stumbled upon just by chance. I know, "True love never grows old.
These are the blueprints for using christian dating sites. An official inquiry into my transmutation was not started. I patterned this article after one of my favorite writers. I can guarantee this at a few point in your life, you'll want some theory. Using that cannot be made useful. I recommend closely checking the guarantees. It is the fundamental part. At many point in the future, that trap will have to be dealt with in a more meaningful way. There has been a heated debate respecting online dating site free recently.
I don't think that the younger generation is less likely to get that detail. I bet you presume that joking. Posolutely, this Catch-22 is not always as easy as this. We can affect the world in a small way by changing our dating free service for the better. You should discover the wonders of best completely free dating site. Through what medium do people obtain meritorious free dating sites online booklets? Primarily, this is because a refurbished personals dating site costs too much.

Recently … our TDL tracker picked up a brand new plugin for TDL4 kad.dll (Win32/Olmarik.AVA) which we haven't seen earlier … we discovered that it implements a particularly interesting network communication protocol …
Microsoft's advisory on the SMB driver issue is now available. As expected, it includes some comments on mitigation, but they're rather fluffy. It advocates "Firewall best practices and standard default firewall configurations", which "can help protect networks from attacks that originate outside the enterprise perimeter," and suggests exposing a "minimal number of ports". Well, duh… I'd expect any firewall

Handmark / Astraware have put a few of their applications on sale for a limited time. They are the latest in a long line of developers trying to use limited time price drops to increase sales. It's an interesting promotion. But one that some developers have strong argument against it working.
No matter the impact, it's the easiest way for developers to get a little promotion for their apps. They appear all over the internet on the price drops pages, like our price drops list.
Highlights from the Handmark / Astraware sale include the recently release Westward, a real time strategy game, Astraware Sudoku, and also the recently released helicopter shooter, Hellfire.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
An armistice is a formal agreement of warring parties to stop fighting. It is not necessarily the end of a war, since it might be just a cessation of hostilities while an attempt is made to negotiate a lasting peace. It is derived from the Latin arma, meaning weapons and statium, meaning a stopping.
A truce or ceasefire usually refers to a temporary cessation of hostilities for an agreed limited time or within a limited area. A truce may be needed in order to negotiate an armistice. An armistice is a modus vivendi and is not the same as a peace treaty, which may take months or even years to agree on. The 1953 Korean War Armistice Agreement is a major example of an armistice which has not been followed by a peace treaty.
The United Nations Security Council often imposes, or tries to impose, cease-fire resolutions on parties in modern conflicts. Armistices are always negotiated between the parties themselves and are thus generally seen as more binding than non-mandatory UN cease-fire resolutions in modern international law.
The key aspect in an armistice is the fact that fighting ends with no one surrendering.[1]
Under International Law an armistice is a legal agreement (often in a document) which ends fighting between the "belligerent parties" of a war or conflict.[2] The Hague II (1899) Treaty, says "If [the armistice's] duration is not fixed," the parties can resume fighting (Article 36) as they choose, but with proper notifications. This is in comparison to a "fixed duration" armistice, where the parties can renew fighting only at the end of the particular fixed duration. When the belligerent parties say (in effect), "this armistice completely ends the fighting" without any end date for the armistice, then duration of the armistice is fixed in the sense that no resumption of the fighting is allowed at any time. For example, the Korean Armistice Agreement calls for a "ceasefire and armistice" and has the "objective of establishing an armistice which will ensure a complete cessation of hostilities and of all acts of armed force in Korea until a final peaceful settlement is achieved..."[citation needed]
Armistice Day (which coincides with Remembrance Day and Veterans Day, public holidays) is commemorated every year on 11 November to mark the armistice signed between the Allies of World War I and Germany at Compiègne, France, for the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front of World War I, which took effect at eleven o'clock in the morning—the "eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month" of 1918. Most countries changed the name of the holiday after World War II, to honor veterans of that and subsequent conflicts. Most member states of the Commonwealth of Nations adopted the name Remembrance Day, while the United States chose All Veterans Day.

You Me At Six have offered fans the unique opportunity to learn how to play their hit single 'Time Is Money'.
Guitarist Chris Miller walks you through the song with easy to follow instructions on every part of the song from the Introductory riff to the solo.
You Me At Six's Dan Flint recently spoke about the band's performance at this year's Download festival, where fans will no doubt be happy to hear 'Time Is Money' live.
"It'll be the first time we've ever played after dark at a festival. That'll be a different kind of experience. To be one of the headliners playing Download is going to be surreal," Flint told NME. Adding: "It's one of those things. We don't want to get too excited about it, as we don't want it to be not as good as we expect it to be. But I think on the day, it's going be absolutely amazing."
You can check out the 'Time Is Money' tutorial below, now.

Letters to the Editor
I just purchased a copy of the September 1996 issue of Linux Journal. I was extremely disappointed that you are excluding any mention of bugs from your review articles. Rely on word of mouth? Then why the devil did I just pay $4.00 for your silly journal!! I know you don't want to offend any potential advertisers, but this is ridiculous. Until you can be bothered to report on what these packages are REALLY like, your journal does not have any value.
—Tim Gawne firstname.lastname@example.com
I just finished reading your article on the Texas OODB in July's Linux Journal.
One free system you did not mention was Exodus (from the now famous OO7 benchmark debacle with Object Store). I have been using Exodus for about two years with its E (C++ extension) for persistence. It is exceptional.
I note from its archive (cs.uws.edu) the latest version of E has been removed (based on gcc-2.5.8), maybe because of several bugs in the release (which I tripped over and have since fixed). The stable release is based on gcc-2.3.3.
I have just completed the port of E-2.5.8 to Solaris 2.4 & 5 and should be releasing it, along with the fixes, back to the archive shortly.
By the way, Exodus does run under Linux and does support a very extensive multi-user, multi-server caching system called "sm". sm also supports a two phase commit and checkpointing.
I agree about OODB speed differences—they make systems like "Manacle" look like the dinosaurs they are.

I want to give you an update on the Israeli Linux Users Group. First, we now have our own domain. The official web site is www.linux.org.il, and a full-scale sunsite-mirroring FTP site is on the way. We are also considering becoming an official non-profit organization, which might be interesting for readers. Subscription to our mailing list can be done at www.linux.org.il/Linux-il-sub.html or by sending mail to email@example.com with the subject line empty and the body containing "subscribe linux-il [address]".
Finally, I just want to ask that any feedback and comments sent to you as a result of the article also be forwarded to me. I'll make sure the entire group receives them.
—Shay Rojansky email@example.com
Thanks to everyone there for a wonderful source of information and advertisements specific to Linux. I receive many magazines each month, but the copy of LJ I pick up at the newsstand each month (until now) is by far my favorite. Keep up the good work! (And if there are any technical employment opportunities at LJ, I would love to hear about them.)
I would like to know as much as possible about the projected availability of the back issues. I want to get one of each of the issues still available, so it would help to know which to order first. I don't want to miss one by waiting too long.
Thanks in advance.
—Walter Seefeld firstname.lastname@example.com
I'm writing to congratulate you on yet another fine issue of the Linux Journal. Your journal is the only one I read from cover to cover any more. Here are a few opinions and comments I'd like to pass on:
Please convey to Michael Johnson he did a marvelous job in getting LJ started. I always enjoyed his technical articles, and I wish him well in his new position with Red Hat.
I think your mix of newbie to "not so newbie" articles varies a little between issues but, on the whole, is about right (for me anyway).
I think your "What is Linux" section should highlight the contributions of the FSF, BSD, MIT and others a little more prominently. Although their software wasn't written to support the Linux project (but it does now), Linux would be much the poorer without them (it doesn't diminish Linux in any way to provide this acknowledgement).
Please continue to run as many articles as possible on introductions to programming tools under Linux. The "Getting to Know gdb" article was a good example of this type of article.
I liked your interview with Linus Torvalds. It would be very interesting to see more articles in this vein. I suggest you interview additional Linux luminaries such as Alan Cox, Werner Almesberger, Matt Welsh, Lars Wirzenius, Remy Card, Rick Faith, Leonard Zubkoff, Bjorne Ekwall, Al Longyear, Donald Becker, and many others too numerous to mention.
I'd also be quite interested in getting to know a little more about Linux entrepreneurs like Phil Hughes, Mark Bolzern, Erik Troan and many others.
While I'm on the topic of interviews, a good complement to the Linux Distributions review article would be short bios on the founders of the distributions. (I'm particularly fascinated by the Debian project, its philosophy, and its contributors.)
Interviews with Unix luminaries like Richard Stallman, Larry Wall and others would also be very illuminating.
An article on the use of Linux for real-time applications would be interesting. There are a number of groups working on this, and perhaps you could convince their coordinators to contribute an article or two.
An article surveying free and non-free database software would be very useful.
Well, that's enough opinions and suggestions for one letter! Keep up the good work!
—Nick Busigin email@example.com
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

5 simply ... .... THE BESTkrio2005 | 16/09/2008 | See all krio2005's reviews (2)I'm sorry to anyone who doesnt think so but this game is possibly the best game i'm ever played... Its a must have for anyone especially for online gaming!!!
3 Not sure what all the fuss is about?DeJaVu84 | 04/08/2009 | See all DeJaVu84's reviews (2)Now....... this is hard for me to give it 3 stars because on one hand you have a fantastic fast paced single player game and on the other you have a drab (still fast paced) multiplayer. the single player was very good with lots of nice set pieces and ok story which is great for quick playthrough, but its the multiplayer I just didnt like (im sure millions of you would beg to differ!) and my reason for that was I just found myself blasting away until I see the "+10" come on the screen and after a few nights of playing it suddenly dawned on me that the game was completely mindless! and we have been suckered into thinking this game has an outstanding multiplayer when in fact its just the same as any point stacking game out there! you seem to just turn into a zombie starring at the tv just waiting for your next level-up and for what? you can kick anyones butt using the M16!(the gun you start with) you just dont need alot of skill to play it! Maybe its because it was bigged up so much that I was expecting more, also its my own fault for thinking that a game published by Activision would be any good.Anyway -.great singleplayer.Not so good multiplayer
5 Call of Duty 4dan1805 | 29/10/2008 | See all dan1805's reviews (19)The makers of call of duty have really out done thereselves here, the game play is amazing. The graphics are truely spectacular better than the xbox 360. The single player mode is by far better than any previous call of duty game, the realism of the weapons are really good. The fireing of the weapons are more realistic as the recoil is good and plus when you fire a sniper it throws your shoulder back.As for the online play well.. You wouldnt find any better game for online play thats for sure, so far i have not yet found any thing wrong with it. Yeah sure there are a few glitches but that makes it even more fun to play. Just make sure you watch out for the hackers on the game, because they cheat and you will never win if your on the opposing team.Anyway if your thinking of buying this game then you should its really good value for money and never gets boring.Thanks... Please say wheather this was useful to anyone.
5 what an idiot!! best game ever!!!Milky1984 | 19/09/2008 | See all Milky1984's reviews (9)Do u even know what your talking about u fool! Everybody knows this is the best first person ever!
5 100% the best game evermark96mtb | 26/05/2008 | See all mark96mtb's reviews (5)I can't believe some people saying the game was to short. I think it was just right as you didn't get bored. And also if you play on hard it last alot longer. But as it has such a good online features you have the best game ever. Its outstanding online, free for all!! wow come and get some, your missing out if you don't play this game. And order from Play.com they are the best!!

Very disappointed
Very disappointed with the colour difference. Ordered the taupe, but actual item looks more like dirty brown. Actually, I think it is dirty because product looks worn out. Will not be surprised if it is a returned item, repackaged for sale.

Add 6 tbsp of the melted butter, the yeast mixture, egg & warm milk. Beat for about 5 minutes and you'll see the gluten start to develop. It will develop "strands" when it does. Gradually beat in the remaning 2&1/2 cups of flour either with a mixer or by hand. Cover and let rise until doubled (45 minutes). Put 1 tbsp of butter in each pan and coat the sides. Spoon dough into the cake pans and drizzle remaining butter over the rolls. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm (not hot) place for 30 minutes or until doubled. Bake in a preheated 425F oven for 12-17 minutes or until golden brown. When the bottoms are brown they are done. Serve immediately. |

Five South Florida Food-Related Events This Weekend: Florida Turkish Festival, Broward County Fair, and More
3. Oskar Blues Anniversary party
Canned beer has made great strides in shedding its low-brow reputation in recent years. (Seriously: You now can get Cigar City's delectable Jai Alai IPA locally in cans. The can has come into its own.) This weekend, Laser Wolf in Fort Lauderdale will celebrate the "can"iversary of Oskar Blues' Dale's Pale Ale, a forerunner in the current craft-beer-in-a-can movement. The party is Saturday night and attendees can enjoy two-for-one Oskar Blues cans from 8 to 9 p.m. This is a 21 and older shindig.
2. Dinner on the midway at Broward County Fair
Fine dining it ain't, but the Broward County Fair returns this weekend and it's bringing its all-American, deep-fried take on culinary whimsy with it. But it's not just about stuffing your face with elephant ears before taking a spin on the Tilt-a-Whirl. The fair's horticulture and agriculture tents are all about educating folks about the origin of food. For instance, master gardeners will be on premises throughout the weekend and a beekeeper will be buzzing around from noon to 7 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday. The fair continues daily through November 25.
1. Florida Turkish Festival
This two-day, free festival gives attendees a chance to sample Turkish cuisine (like doner kebap, grilled kofte, and baklava, to name a few) and coffee, in addition to taking in other cultural attractions. The festival is 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday in the Emma Lou Olson Civic Center in Pompano Beach and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday at the Florida Turkish Center Foundation in Fort Lauderdale (3020 NE 32nd Ave. #123). Sunday's events include a cooking demo. The festival is sponsored by the Florida Turkish American Association.

Concierge.com's insider take:
The window tables in the upstairs restaurant at Gran Caffè Quadri—with their peerless views across St. Mark's Square—have been sought after for centuries, whatever the standard of the food served. But with the arrival of Michelin-starred chef Massimiliano Alajmo, the battle to secure them, or indeed any other perch in this classically elegant Venice restaurant, has really hotted up. With maître d' Raffaele Alajmo (the chef's brother) ensuring that diners are treated with the utmost in old-fashioned charm, the groundbreaking dishes sometimes come as a surprise. The lagoon cappuccino appetizer is a concoction of the best of local seafood and dark, creamy squid ink in mashed potato so exquisite you might not even identify it at first bite. First-course and main dishes change seasonally; on a recent visit, a risotto with baby shrimp and garusoli (sea snails) was given an exotic undertone with a note of cumin. Downstairs in the beautiful frescoed-and-mirrored café itself, two young chefs prepare light meals at lunch and dinner, at prices that are (a little) lighter on the holiday budget.—Lee Marshall
Open Tuesdays through Sundays 12:30 to 2:30 pm and 7:30 to 10:30 pm.

Since I work with NFL players, it prrcitulaaly sparked my interest, and I agree with you that football is becoming more and more relevant in our everyday lives as can be seen through profits and the means to acquire more advertising dollars to feature NFL athletes. From pet apparel to women's clothing lines at Victoria's Secret, the NFL has found its way into even the most obscure niches in our culture, and has quickly became a pop culture sensation. It is no secret that the NFL has a wonderful communication strategy to the outside world as you can barely step foot out of the door without seeing the NFL logo on something.

Strong Area Health Center opened its doors in Franklin County in 1986. The area holds a rich family history for many of the staff, connecting them to the surrounding communities of Avon, New Vineyard, Phillips, and Strong. Patients from Farmington and beyond utilize the health center as well. In 2001, a determined community board fulfilled their vision, facilitating the center's transition into a modern, well-equipped facility utilizing the latest technology. Our professionals work together with our patients of all ages and provide a "medical home." Click here to learn more and view a video: Patient-Centered Medical Home. In January 2003, further expansion was completed and our state-of-the-art dental center enabled Strong to become the first HealthReach facility to offer oral health care. A coalition of local residents and service providers worked with HealthReach for several years to plan the program and obtain funding for this important endeavor. Nestled between the Western Maine communities of Farmington and Rangeley, the town of Strong sits just north of a bend in the Sandy River. Our rural community in the hills is ideal for a variety of outdoor activities including hiking, swimming, fishing and snowmobiling with just a short drive to several ski locations. In addition, travelers come to Western Maine to enjoy visiting Smalls Falls, a spectacular set of waterfalls located just minutes from Strong. The snow-capped mountains, vivid fall foliage, and moose-spotting opportunities attract the young and old alike. Recognized nationally for patient-centered care |

Ebola Virus Infection FAQ
In this article
Editor's note: This story was updated on March 3, 2015, with new case numbers.
Perhaps no virus strikes as much fear in people as Ebola, the cause of a deadly outbreak in West Africa.
The World Health Organization (WHO) reports nearly 24,000 confirmed or suspected cases of Ebola, mostly in the countries of Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone, as of Jan. 18. More than 9,700 people have died in the largest Ebola outbreak ever recorded.
A surgeon from Sierra Leone who lives in the United States died after being flown to the Nebraska Medical Center for treatment, the hospital said Nov. 17.
Martin Salia, who was reportedly working at a hospital in the Sierra Leone capital of Freetown, arrived in the U.S. Nov. 15 and was taken to the medical center.
He was in extremely critical condition, suffering from kidney and respiratory failure, when he arrived, the hospital said. "We used every possible treatment available to give Dr. Salia every possible opportunity for survival," said Phil Smith, MD, medical director of the hospital's biocontainment unit. That included giving him the experimental treatment ZMapp, also given to other Ebola patients, according to the hospital.
But Salia's disease was "extremely advanced," Smith said in a statement.
Salia was reportedly a permanent U.S. resident who lived in Maryland with his family.
Two other Americans -- Rick Sacra, MD, and Ashoka Mukpo -- recovered from Ebola after being treated at the Nebraska isolation unit.
A Doctors Without Borders physician who returned to the U.S. after treating Ebola patients in Guinea was the latest person in the U.S. to be diagnosed with Ebola. Craig Spencer, MD, recovered after getting treatment at New York's Bellevue Hospital. He was released on Nov. 11.
Spencer, who returned to New York on Oct. 17, was taken to the hospital 6 days later after reporting a fever and vomiting.
Two nurses at a Dallas hospital also caught Ebola after treating Thomas Eric Duncan, a Liberian man who later died. The nurses, Nina Pham, 26, and Amber Vinson, 29, both work at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. Duncan arrived in the U.S. on Sept. 20 to visit relatives and 10 days later became the first person to be diagnosed with Ebola in the U.S. He died Oct. 8.

Why being priced right is the number one factor when selling your homeFriday, February 7th, 2014 Issue 06, Volume 18.
Yes, homes for sale in the Temecula/Murrieta Valley have one great thing in common: location. However there is so much more to it when it comes to successfully selling a home in todays market. The truth is there are three dynamics that are important â location, condition and price. Of the three, price is the ultimate trump card. The value of a home is certainly influenced by its location. Build identical homes with identical features in Wine Country and another one in French Valley, and the Wine Country home will certainly be worth more, simply because Wine Country is a more desirable area. Location only affects the value of a home. Price is what sells the home. It doesnt matter if a home sits on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, high up in a pristine mountain resort or in the penthouse of a prestigious downtown building, it just wont sell if its not priced right. There is a buyer for every home. Sometimes its difficult to say just what will be the motivating factor as to why a particular buyer buys a particular home. A home in a "good location" will always sell for a fair price. The same goes for a home in a "bad location", it too will sell for a fair price it just wont be as high as the same home in a "good location". The same can be said for a home in good condition; it will sell for a fair price and a home in poor condition will also sell for a fair price it just wont be as high as the home in a better condition. Price remains the trump card. Neither location nor condition will sell a house if it is not priced right. Dont be that seller looking for that one buyer that gets your house, appreciates your sense of style, your choice of appliances, carpet, and those one-of-kind bathroom fixtures. If your home has been on the market for an extended period of time, provided you have done all you can regarding the condition and have made it easily available for showings, chances are it is no longer priced right. Listen to your REALTIOR®. And if you dont have one, get one. Dont let your home just sit there week after week. It will come to a point buyers will start to avoid your home and think something is wrong with it. When showings stop, dont blame your REALTOR®. When people view your home and no offers come in, chances are a change is needed. Have the market conditions changed? Get input from your REALTOR®. After all, its your house, your REALTOR® works for you. Remember, its not just location and condition, its being priced right that will sell your home. Call us today and get the information you need to make the right decision. The info is free, call now! (951) 296-8887. Questions regarding available inventory and/or other real estate matters please contact me, email@example.com. Mike Mason, Broker/Owner of MASON Real Estate Cal. BRE: 01483044, Board of Director of your Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors® (SRCAR), Traveling State Director, California Association of Realtors® (C.A.R.). 2 comments
Looks like this article was written by a Realtor. Yes - price is important, but it is not everything. A Realtor will always tell you to drop the price - so that they can work less and get their commission faster. Another way to deal with this is to build a commission structure for the Realtor that incents a quick sale at an agreed upon price (or higher) and reduces their commission if the listing goes on for an extended period of time or the offer comes in below the price that was expected. Lots of way to deal with not getting offers - but simply lowering the price - is giving away the house and the commission!!!
Couldn't agree more Gregg...Sounds like the exact sales pitch Id expect a seller to get from an agent wanting to quick sell their house. Agents should be paid based on their results: A high price and a fast sale. Incentives are probably the best way to make that happen.

What kind of fruit grows in Nica? Popoyo's amazing surf, although reason enough to live here full time, is not the only thing keeping me stoked here. The tasty fruit abounding in my yard takes a close second easily.
There are green coconut trees, yellow coconut trees, baby avocados, a lime tree, a lemon tree, almond trees, cashew trees, orange trees, olive trees, banana trees, green peppers, cilantro and papaya trees. Although not all in season right now, we are harvesting some of the tastiest mangos and coconuts mother nature has to offer right now.
The first thing you'll see as you walk away from the little villa is a 6 year old Mango tree. She is in her second year of being a producer of some really sweet fruit and I'll tell you what, she's firing on all 8 cylinders for being a youngster! Usually mangos in general are harvested earlier in the year but this variety, Mango Rosa, is a late bloomer being towards the very end of their summer or dry season. The Mango photos give you a good idea of the color and size of this particular variety named Mango Rosa. Small but sweet as can be. Cut a few slippery slices off, enjoy the sweetness while laying in one of the comfortable hammocks feeling the tropical breeze and admiring the ocean view...
In the first photo you can see one of our many green coconut trees. Full grown green coconuts provide excellent coconut milk high in vitamins. A fantastic ingredient to cook with, make delicious fresh smoothies, or simply drink right off the tree. These babies are better for the meat that they produce. They do produce milk, but not as much and not as sweet as the green coconuts. However the meaty part is super tasty and that's what I personally like.
I've got my eyes on our 1 year old baby avocado tree which is grafted to a high yield early producing female cutting. I'm told that she could be producing some nice avocados within the next 2-3 years. I'm definitely looking forward to this one bearing fruit.
The flower that looks similar to a plumeria but has different shades of pink has an incredible aroma! Pick a few stems to put in your vase and now you have a natural fragrance that can not be copied and reproduced!
Well we just received our first rain the other night and more will be on it's ways, so check back soon to see first hand the metamorphosis that will take place over the next few weeks. Summer "Verano" to Winter "Invierno"!

Prevention 101
Preventive Schedule for 2014
Prevention 101 encourages participants to take an active role in their health by getting their recommended preventive care exams and screenings based on recommendations from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and Highmark's Preventive Health Schedule.
The merits of preventive exams and services are clear: it's estimated that 70% of chronic conditions are related to lifestyle and therefore, preventable. Preventive care means getting the right kinds of preventive health services – screenings, counseling, immunizations and preventive medicine – at the right times. It's about protecting one's health by "knowing what you need and when to get". Prevention 101 engages the individual and their dependents in obtaining regular preventive care through awareness, education and self-motivation.
People are often unaware of the preventive services that are recommended for their age, gender and risk factors. In addition, they do not consider themselves to be at-risk or are uncertain about the effectiveness of certain preventive services. Prevention 101 provides an intervention to promote appropriate utilization of preventive services.
The goals of Prevention 101 are for participants to:

This week hear both Chris James & Patrick Rynn talk about their new cd Gonna Boogie Anyway.
Chris James & Patrick Rynn were on this show back in 2008 talking about their last cd Stop and Think About It. Chris talks this time about how both cd's are Chicago Blues but, this time around there is a change to Gonna Boogie Anyway. It's a little more stripped down including three real nice acoustic numbers with Patrick playing upright bass and Chris doing guitar and vocals. One of them, "Heading Out West", really comes off as sounding like there are more musicians playing than there really are. Then they add our old friend David Maxwell on piano for another acoustic number "You Can't Trust Nobody".
I was really pleased to hear David Maxwell on four of the numbers then Henry Gray shows up to play piano on four more songs. Sam Lay even plays on a couple of songs which is very appropriate because it's the old blues artists like these that have drawn Chris James & Patrick Rynn to this kind of music.
Most of the songs are by the team of Chris James, Patrick Rynn and Rob Stone with four covers including one by Jimmy Reed and one by Robert Lockwood Jr. Rob Stone also plays harp and some guitar on both their cd's. Be on the lookout for a new cd by Rob Stone called Back Around Here that just came out.
Like their last cd Stop and Think About It the new one Gonna Boogie Anyway is a great Chicago blues cd. That will be winning a lot of awards because this is some of best Chicago Blues you will hear anywhere. Chris James & Patrick Rynn are two blues artists we will be hearing a lot more from and that's a good thing.
Songs in this week's show:
You Can Trust Nobody (with David Maxwell)
The Tables Have Turned (with David Maxwell)
Headed Out West
Money Don't Like Me (with David Maxwell & Sam Lay)
Gonna Boogie Anyway (with Henry Gray)

Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Screening
What Is Cystic Fibrosis?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease caused by a change (mutation) in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene. It is a chronic, progressive disease that causes mucus to become thick and sticky. The mucus builds up and clogs passages in many of the body's organs, but mostly in the lungs and the pancreas. In the lungs, the mucus can cause serious breathing problems and lung disease. In the pancreas, the mucus can cause digestive problems and malnutrition, which can lead to problems with growth and development.
Cystic fibrosis is usually diagnosed during childhood. On average, people who have cystic fibrosis live into their mid- to late 30s, although new treatments are making it possible for some people to live into their 40s and longer.
What Causes Cystic Fibrosis?
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder. A child must inherit two defective CF genes (one defective gene from each parent) to have the disease.
A person who has inherited only one defective CF gene is a carrier of cystic fibrosis and does not have the disease but can pass it on to his or her children. This person can also pass on carrier status.
- If only one parent is a carrier of a defective CF gene, the child will not have CF. But there is a 50% (1-in-2) chance that the child will be a CF carrier.
- If both parents are carriers, there is a 25% (1-in-4) chance that the child will have CF, and a 50% chance that the child will be a carrier.
What Is Carrier Screening?
Cystic fibrosis carrier screening is a blood test that determines if you are a carrier of the defective gene that causes cystic fibrosis. The test can help you determine if you and your partner have an increased chance of having a child born with CF.
Who Should Be Screened?
Genetic testing can help people find out if they may be carriers of CF. This type of genetic testing allows parents to find out if they have an increased chance of having a child with CF. Anyone who is interested in knowing his or her carrier status can request the test, but the test can only be ordered by a doctor. Genetic counseling to help you understand the meaning and possible results of the test is recommended prior to genetic testing.
CF carrier screening is recommended for:1
- Adults with a positive family history of CF.
- Partners of people with CF. If one partner has CF and the other partner has the defective CF gene, a child will have a 50% chance of having CF.
- Couples planning to have children.
- Pregnant women (and their partners) who seek prenatal care, regardless of family history.
What If I Am a Carrier?
If tests show that you are a carrier of CF, your partner should also be tested. Both parents must be carriers of CF for a child to have the disease. If tests show that your partner is not a carrier of the CF gene, there is a very small chance that you will have a child with CF.
If you and your partner are both carriers of CF, there is a 1-in-4 (25%) chance that your child will have CF.2
- If you are not already pregnant, you may wish to have genetic counseling to understand your risks and options if you decide to have children.
- If you are already pregnant, you may wish to have further testing (amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling) to determine whether your baby has CF.
Is Screening Accurate?
The blood test can detect whether a person is a carrier of CF in about 9 out of 10 CF carriers.3 This rate is not the same among all racial and ethnic groups. There is a small risk that you may be a CF carrier even when the test results are negative.
Should I Be Screened?
The decision to have cystic fibrosis carrier screening is a personal one. You may wish to be tested if you are concerned that you or your partner might be carriers of CF. This may be more likely if either of you has a family member with the disease.2
Some people decide to be tested to help determine their risks if they choose to have children. Among whites, about 2 to 5 out of 100 are carriers of a defective CF gene.4 CF is much less common in other racial and ethnic groups.
Carrier testing is expensive. Another factor that may guide the decision to have testing is whether the cost of testing is covered by your insurance company.
You may decide to have carrier testing for CF if you are already pregnant. The test results may influence your decision about your pregnancy or help you make decisions about the care of your newborn child.
Why Not Be Screened?
There may be reasons you would choose not to have carrier testing.
- You think that your risk of being a carrier is low. This may be true if you are an African American or an Asian-American. The incidence of CF is lower in these groups.
- You are already pregnant and the information obtained from testing will not affect your decision to continue your pregnancy. Remember, though, that CF test results can provide valuable information for the care of your unborn child.
- Carrier testing is expensive. You may decide not to have testing if your insurance does not pay for it.
- Testing does not identify all people who have a mutation in the CF gene. There is a small chance that you are a carrier even if the results are normal (negative).

Please take this quick survey so we can better understand how Protected Planet is used.
XHey friend, could you provide us a wikipedia URL with a good description of this protected area?
Please, be sure that you are suggesting an english language wikipedia URL (http://en.wiki....)
mark it as wrongTransferring data
The Pantanal (Portuguese pronunciation: [pɐ̃taˈnaw]) is one of the world's largest tropical wetland areas, and is located mostly within the Brazilian state of Mato Grosso do Sul, but it extends into Mato Grosso and portions of Bolivia and Paraguay. It sprawls over an area estimated at between 140,000 and 195,000 square kilometres (54,000 and 75,000 sq mi). Various subregional ecosystems exist, each with distinct hydrological, geological and ecological characteristics; up to 12 of them have been defined (RADAMBRASIL 1982).
About 80% of the Pantanal floodplains are submerged during the rainy seasons, nurturing an astonishing biologically diverse collection of aquatic plants and helping to support a dense array of animal species.
The name "Pantanal" comes from the Portuguese word pântano, meaning wetland, bog, swamp, quagmire or marsh. By comparison, the Brazilian highlands are locally referred to as the planalto, plateau or, literally, high plain.
The Pantanal is a huge, gently-sloped basin that receives runoff from the upland areas (the Planalto highlands) and slowly releases the water through the Paraguay River and tributaries. The formation is a result of the large, concave pre-Andean depression of the earth's crust, related to the Andean orogeny of the Tertiary. It constitutes an enormous internal river delta, in which several rivers flowing from the surrounding plateau merge, depositing their sediments and erosion residues, which have been filling, throughout the years, the large depression area of the Pantanal. This area is also one of the distinct physiographic provinces of the larger Parana-Paraguay Plain area.[citation needed]
The Pantanal is bounded by the Chiquitano dry forests to the west and northwest, by the Arid Chaco dry forests to the southwest, and the Humid Chaco to the south. The Cerrado savannas lie to the north, east and southeast. The Pantanal has an average yearly rainfall of 1,000–1,400 mm (39–55 in), but is fed by the upper Paraguay River. Its average temperature is 25 °C (77 °F), but temperatures can fluctuate from 0 to 40 °C (32 to 104 °F).
During the rainy season, the water in the Pantanal basin rises between two and five meters. Just as the Nile delta is fertile, arable land, so too are the Pantanal plains. The dramatic increase of water during the rainy season nourishes the producers of Pantanal, which in turn nourishes all the other species, as well. Humans have taken advantage of this so much that it has become a problem.
Floodplain ecosystems such as the Pantanal are defined by their seasonal inundation and desiccation. They shift between phases of standing water and phases of dry soil, when the water table can be well below the root region. Soils range from high levels of sand in higher areas to higher amounts of clay and silt in riverine areas.
Elevation of the Pantanal ranges from 80 to 150 m (260 to 490 ft) above sea level. Annual rainfall over the flood basin is between 1,000 and 1,500 mm (39 and 59 in), with most rainfall occurring between November and March. In the Paraguay River portion of the Pantanal, water levels rise between two meters to five meters seasonally; water fluctuations in other parts of the Pantanal are less than this. Flood waters tend to flow slowly (2 to 10 cm (0.79 to 3.9 in) per second) due to the low gradients and high resistance offered by the dense vegetation.
When rising river waters first contact previously dry soil, the waters become oxygen-depleted, rendering the water environs anoxic. Many natural fish kills can occur if there are no oxygenated water refuges available (the reason for this remains speculative: it may be due to the growth of toxin-producing bacteria in the deoxygenated water rather than as a direct result of lack of oxygen (McClain 2002)).
The vegetation of the Pantanal, often referred to as the "Pantanal complex", is a mixture of plant communities typical of a variety of surrounding biome regions: these include moist tropical Amazonian rainforest plants, semiarid woodland plants typical of northeast Brazil, Brazilian cerrado savanna plants and plants of the Chaco savannas of Bolivia and Paraguay. Forests usually occur at higher altitudes of the region, while grasslands cover the seasonally inundated areas. The key limiting factors for growth are inundation and, even more importantly, water-stress during the dry season. The Pantanal ecosystem is home to 3500 known plant species.[citation needed]
The Pantanal ecosystem is also thought to be home to 1000 bird species, 400 fish species, 300 mammalian species, 480 reptile species and over 9000 different subspecies of invertebrates.
Among the rarest animals to inhabit the wetland of the Pantanal are the marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) and the giant river otter (Pteroneura brasiliensis). Parts of the Pantanal are also home to the following endangered or threatened species: the hyacinth macaw (Anodorhyncus hyacinthinus) (a bird endangered due to smuggling), the crowned solitary eagle, the maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus), the bush dog (Speothos venaticus), the South American tapir (Tapirus terrestris), the giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla) and the yacare caiman (Caiman yacare). The Pantanal is home to one of the largest and healthiest jaguar (Panthera onca) populations on Earth.
Most fish are detritivores, primarily ingesting fine particles from sediments and plant surfaces. This is characteristic of fish living in South American flood-plains in general. Fish migration between river channels and flood-plain regions occurs seasonally. These fish have many adaptations that allow them to survive in the oxygen-depleted flood-plain waters.
In addition to the caiman, the following reptiles inhabit the Pantanal: the yellow anaconda (Eunectes notaeus), the gold tegu (Tupinambis teguixin), the red-footed tortoise (Geochelone carbonaria) and the green iguana (Iguana iguana).

The Pantanal region includes essential sanctuaries for migratory birds, critical nursery grounds for aquatic life, and refuges for such creatures as the yacare caiman, deer, and jaguar.
The main human activities which threaten the Pantanal ecosystems are:
A portion of the Pantanal in Brazil has been protected as the Pantanal Matogrossense National Park. This 1,350 square kilometres (520 sq mi) park, established in September 1981, is located in the municipality of Poconé in the State of Mato Grosso, between the mouths of the Baía de São Marcos and the Gurupi Rivers.
This park has been designated a Ramsar Site of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention since May 24, 1993.
The SESC Pantanal Private Natural Heritage Reserve (Reserva Particular do Patrimonio Natural SESC Pantanal) is a privately owned reserve in Brazil, established in 1998 and 878.7 km2 (339.3 sq mi) in size. It is located in the north-eastern portion, known as "Poconé" Pantanal, not far from the Pantanal National Park. It is a mix of permanent rivers, seasonal streams, permanent and seasonal floodplain freshwater lakes, shrub-dominated wetlands and seasonally flooded forests, all dedicated to nature preservation, and was designated a Ramsar Site of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention.

The History Of Thunderhill According To David. Part One
For those of you who remember the "Fractured Fairy Tales" segment of the Bullwinkle Show I now offer a similar version of the conception, birth and growth of Thunderhill Park, [the Hill] our now adult road race track just about to celebrate its 20th year. Wow, time flies when you are having fun!
One of the best parts of the story of the Hill is that it came about as a solution to a problem confronting the then board of directors of the San Francisco Region of the Sports Car Club of American [Incorporated April 15th, 1953] that included Tom McCarthy, Roger Eandi, Gary Meeker, Lynn Hunting, Jon Norman, Tom Piantanida and Clint DeWitt. What they decided to do as a result of feeling poorly treated by the management of the tracks serving the area, specifically Laguna Seca and Sears Point, was to build their own road course. Why not?
They practically built Laguna Seca and Sears Point singlehandedly. They were responsible for Vacaville except for its failure. How do I know? They told me. Distressed by not being given their proper respect and the dates they wanted on the calendar they formed a committee and set out to build their own track. Wow, what a solution. There had not been a race track built in California since Ontario Motor Speedway and it was already closed. Riverside Raceway, the core track for the next largest region in the SCCA, Cal Club, was closing and in its last death-rattle. Laguna Seca had been given over to the county of Monterey by the Federal Government and a guy named Skip Berg, a developer,] was the new owner of Sears Point. Jack Williams, the prior owner, had been aced out of his ownership role over various financial dealings that ended up with him looking at the track from outside the gate.
So why was building their own track regarded among the best moments in the development of the Hill? Because it was impossible to build a race track in California. The California Environmental Quality Act [CEQA] could be used in any number of ways to prove, without a doubt, that a race track for racing cars and motorcycles was injurious to the environment. Period. The good news is this same act could be used to approve a race track but the people doing the approving had to want the race track in their back yards. That was the second problem. Not many people did.
Absent the knowledge that it was impossible to build a race track in California in the late 80's the Club trudged on. At first there were many club members involved. Committees were formed. Prospecting for land was a weekend adventure for committee members and others who just did so. Site number one came in Stanislaus County near the farming community of La Grange. It was a good site a bit south-east of Stockton in pure agricultural land. Enter Steve Crawford. Steve worked for CH2M-Hill as an engineer and planner. He was a formula car racer and volunteered to design the track based on input from the committee and the natural terrain. He designed a track that was pretty sexy for the LaGrange property. The process began and the committee held a town-hall meeting in La Grange while other members drew up a business plan for the project and issued a press release to the local Stockton paper. As per usual, the folks who came to the town hall meeting were those who felt that they would be adversely impacted by the race track. They asked lots of questions. Committee members present went on the defensive and tried to mitigate the concerns of the sometimes excited audience. They said the track would be relatively small, hold only small club events and not be a nuisance. They may have even used the term non-spectator. The problems was that the business plan and the story that it generated for the Stockton paper were 180 degrees off. Someone was not telling the truth. Even though the effort continued through preliminary planning review the project was doomed. Resistance met Supervisor and the key moment came when the supervisors were asked individually if they had to vote on the approval of the race track for the SCCA today what would they vote. You've heard the word unanimous. It was unanimous but not in favor of the project. The folks in charge correctly withdrew from that site and the process of finding another site began. At the same time Geoff Provo mentioned the idea of getting some expertise to help with the project to avoid what happened in La Grange. He mentioned one fellow who was General Manager of Baylands Raceway Park in Fremont. Roger Eandi and Jon Norman interviewed the demure sprint car racer and liked what they saw and heard. Enter David Vodden. [To be continued]

To Greg Marx: I hope CJR is internalizing the obvious here - that people on the Left are very free and easy with accusations of racism, particularly when their political fortunes are in decline. Since this stuff has a nasty history in recent memory (i.e., the disgusting performance of much of the press, led by the unreliable NY Times, in the fetid Duke/lacrosse scandal), I believe that every reporter's BS detector should go off when left-wing journalists and activists start playing the race card.
Unjustified accusations of racial motive (usually defined in slippery terms) have as scabrous an effect on civic discourse as does racism itself. (Several MSM stalwarts were also humiliatingly taken in by the Kentucky census worker scam, thanks to the same lazy biases, too.) It is good to see CJR approaching this stuff with skeptical scrutiny.
—Mark Richard
While I appreciate you stating the obvious, Mr. Marx, and it needed to be said, I can't help but feel you just winked at journalists who ask the public to trust them again, and again, and again, etc. You don't seem terribly concerned about cookie jar raids.
