Grill Back Panels: Outdoor Grill Panels
Kalamazoo outdoor kitchens are designed with a 30-inch cabinet depth in order to accommodate grills and undercounter refrigeration within a freestanding outdoor kitchen design. Appliance back panels bring the rear of the kitchen flush behind the grill and support the countertop in that area.
Grill back panels must be installed between two Kalamazoo outdoor kitchen cabinets. There is a back panel available for each built-in grill from Kalamazoo Outdoor Gourmet.
All Kalamazoo outdoor grills, whether built-in or freestanding, have fully-finished backs. A grill back panel is only needed in outdoor kitchen installations where it is necessary to create a flush appearance between two Kalamazoo Outdoor Kitchen cabinets flanking the grill. Your Kalamazoo outdoor kitchen design consultant can assist you with understanding the uses for these back panels.

ClearView rejects $220m offer
PUBLISHED: 17 Jul 2012 11:02:00 | UPDATED: 19 Jul 2012 00:45:11PUBLISHED: 17 Jul 2012 PRINT EDITION: 18 Jul 2012George Liondis
Financial services group ClearView Wealth has rejected a $220 million takeover private equity bid, labelling the offer opportunistic and warning it significantly undervalues the company.
Chairman Ray Kellerman said the decision by the ClearView board was unanimous, although director John Murphy did not vote because of links to entities associated with the takeover bidder.
The Gary Weiss-backed CCP BidCo, a subsidiary of private equity firm Crescent Capital Partners, offered 50¢ a share for ClearView in an unsolicited bid last week.
"The offer does not reflect the strong uplift in the business from ClearView's new products, services and enhanced distribution," Mr Kellerman said in a statement to the Australian Securities Exchange yesterday. "Overall, the offer is opportunistic and the timing seems designed to take advantage of uncertain and volatile investment markets," he added.
ClearView is a life insurance and investment group with $41 million in in-force premiums and $3.1 billion of funds under management.
The company's major shareholder, Guinness Peat Group, which owns 48 per cent of ClearView, had previously branded the takeover offer "inadequate", meaning a formal rejection of the bid was widely expected.
Crescent Capital partner Michael Alscher did not comment yesterday, but analysts said he would have to significantly raise the offer price to breathe new life into the deal.
"The bid put on the table gives no credit for the ability of ClearView to write new business and we believe ClearView is ideally placed to expand aggressively in the life insurance space," said InvestorFirst Securities research analyst Stewart Oldfield.
ClearView shares have rallied by more than 17 per cent since the offer was announced on July 12, closing at 54¢ yesterday, above the offer price. Mr Oldfield valued ClearView at 64¢ a share. "The bid price recognises only the value locked up in the existing book of business," he said.
The battle for control of ClearView has pitted GPG up against one its former high-flying executives, Gary Weiss. Mr Weiss, who left GPG in April 2011 after 20 years, has worked closely with Crescent on the ClearView bid and will be appointed chairman of the wealth management group if the takeover is successful.
GPG bought into ClearView in 2009, but is now in the process of selling out of its holdings with a view to winding up the company. While GPG is open to offers for its stake, chief investment officer Anthony Eisen said the Crescent bid was too low. "If an offer reflects fair value, then we'd have to consider it, but this is well short of the mark," he told The Australian Financial Review last week.
Mr Alscher said last week that the private equity firm was willing to maker a substantial investment in ClearView if the takeover was accepted. "If you want to grow a life insurance business, it requires quite a lot of capital," he said.

Lasagna, Lightened Up
by Toby Amidor in Meal Makeovers, March 3, 2009
With meat, cheese and oodles of pasta, it's no wonder this bad boy carries a hefty total of 1,000-plus calories per serving. But you can create a lasagna masterpiece that is leaner — and here's how.
The Noodles
Lasagna is usually a big meal that works well for a crowd or leaves lots of leftovers. If you're worried you're going to overdo your portions, a good idea for cutting calories is using half the noodles in the box and creating a smaller lasagna plate.
Switching to whole-wheat noodles won't cut calories but will add fiber. Most people don't get the recommended 28 to 40 grams of fiber per day, and I'm always working with my clients to figure out ways to get more.
If you want to cut out pasta altogether, use portobello mushrooms, zucchini or yellow squash or thinly sliced eggplant instead. Layer them as you do the lasagna noodles and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
The Meat
Ground chuck is the fattiest choice for your ground beef. Look for 90 to 95% lean ground beef. Use half to a third of the amount your recipe calls for. You can also mix various lean meats with the beef such as ground bison, veal or turkey.
Another idea is combining half the ground beef with beans or chopped mushrooms, which adds tons of fiber and easily cuts out fat. You can also make seafood lasagna — seafood is very low in calories and high in the antioxidant selenium.
Want to get adventurous? Try combining texturized vegetable protein (a.k.a. "TVP") with half the ground beef. TVP is made from soy, which has no cholesterol and is high in protein. Better still, it picks up the flavor of whatever you combine it with.
The Cheese
Choose part-skim ricotta and mozzarella. You might think adding grated Parmesan is harmless, but half a cup adds 200 calories and 14 grams of fat alone. Sprinkle a tablespoon or two for added flavor or forgo if you can.
The Sauce
Create a tomato sauce with crushed and diced tomatoes, onions, garlic and lots of low-calorie fresh herbs such as parsley and basil. Add as little oil as possible (if any) — it's 120 calories per tablespoon. If using prepared sauces, avoid those made with highly processed ingredients such as high fructose corn syrup.
A Winning Combination
When it comes to the final filling mix, more isn't always better. Aim for less meat and cheese and more veggies. You can also forgo the meat and just use cheese and veggies — that's what I do!

I brown ground turkey, and add FENNEL SEEDS and SWEET ONION to the drained, browned turkey. I layer that mixture into a lasagna, and use 2/3 the amount required of part skim ricotta & cheese. NO ONE CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE!
Wow, interesting comments. The ground chicken/turkey idea is fine but can have more fat in it than beef if you don't grind your own. Most ready ground has light/dark/skin ground with it. Love Cindy's idea of adding cooked barley, so healthy too! And Glen, well, he probably isn't very health consious and doesn't try variations on recipes.
My mom-in-law told me how to makes a traditional lasagna with 2%cottage cheese, marinara, 1 cup lowfat motz, 95-97% lean ground beef. You can also use several cans of Del Monte Tomato, garlic & Oregano. I like to add this with a meat layer.
The trick with using the cottage cheese…you need to beat in an egg…otherwise the lasagna will be soupy. For small container 1 Egg, I always buy the larger 24 oz & use 2eggs.
I use whole wheat lasagna noodles, and no one can tell the difference. My son asked me one day if I thought whole wheat noodles would be just as good in the lasagna, and I told him that was what he was eating. I use Skinners. I don't like the other whole wheat noodle products, but I can't tell the difference in the lasagna ones. I also use the 2% cottage chesse as I really dislike ricotta cheese. I use the recipe on the lasagna package that does not require cooking the noodles first; I think this may be why the whole wheat are good. They cook for over an hour in this recipe…so easy to make.

Thanks as usual for the great support. You're all in my heart (Yeah, I have a big heart, problem?)
My Wattpad Love
Chapter 19
I was seriously questioning my morals. Keeping a promise had never felt so impossible in my entire life; not even when I promised Mom, I wouldn't play with her shoes when I was seven. Yeah, that had been a tough promise to keep, believe me. I was sitting on my bed; my laptop was on my lap. I was scrolling down Wikipedia. I was focused on reading an specific term:
Morality (from the Latin moralitas "manner, character, proper behavior") is the differentiation of intentions, decisions, and actions between those that are good (or right) and those that are bad (or wrong).
Right and wrong...
There was such a thin line between those two. I knew it was wrong to break a promise but God, it was getting so hard. It'd been two days since the day I met Evan in the park. Two long agonizing days... I'd been at home trying to recover from the so opportune flu I'd caught last week. I read Evan's poem over and over again. How could he expect me to forget about him just like that? He wrote me a freaking heartbreaking poem and then he expected me just to forget him? He certainly didn't know me well. I wasn't the type of girl to give up so easily. But then there was the fact that I'd given him my word. However, my word didn't seem too valuable for me right now.
Maybe, I could talk to him and blame it on the cough medicine. That thing was strong; it got me all sleepy and relaxed. I could tell him I got an overdose or something.
Yeah, Julie, cough medicine overdose... classy.
Sighing in frustration, I closed the Wikipedia tab and immediately the browser showed me Wattpad. I'd got many privates messages but any of them was from Evan. Not being able to hold back any longer, I clicked on Evan's profile. I wasn't going to talk to him; I was just going to check his profile, that wasn't bad, was it? As soon as I scroll down his message board, I knew this was a bad idea. He was talking to that girl again. My heart sank in my chest as I watched them flirt.
Didn't he know how bad he was hurting me?
If he was going to flirt with her, couldn't just he do it through private messages? It was like he was rubbing all this on my face. I slammed my laptop closed and fell backwards on my bed. I stared at the ceiling in silence.
"What should I do?" I wondered aloud, rubbing my face. I closed my eyes remembering him. I would never forget his face; Evan was not only the hottest guy I'd ever seen. He had that mysterious sexy aura around him, it pulled me towards me. I felt like I wanted to unveil all his secrets, I knew he was suffering. I saw the hidden pain in his deep-dark eyes. But he'd chosen to push me away. He'd chosen to be all alone in this. Why? I knew he had a bad past. His parents' death must've been traumatic for him. Was that why he didn't want me around?
The Girl and the Shark...
His poem really got to my heart. His words seemed to come to life whenever I read it. My chain of thoughts was interrupted by a much unexpected song.
"Dirty babe, you see these shackles. Baby I'm your slave," I snapped my eyes opened and sat up in shock. The song was coming from my phone, I scowled at it "I'll let you whip me if I misbehave. It's just that no one makes me feel this way,"

Alumni College New York May 19, 2007
Dear Alumni and Friends, As a member of the Rice Alumni New York volunteer leadership, I have the privilege of inviting you to join us for Alumni College New York, a daylong celebration of learning at its best. For those who may not be familiar with the Alumni College held annually on the Rice campus, our local event will provide an opportunity to attend classes and engage in discussion with academic experts and fellow alumni. Only a few select cities are able to host their own alumni college "on the road," and we are fortunate that New York is among them. This year's event, held at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers in midtown, includes three lectures covering a wide-range of current topics: international politics, global warming, and health in the media. For our fourth session, we'll visit the Museum of Modern Art to enjoy guided tours from their expert lecturers.

Tentative Schedule
Saturday, May 19, 2007 Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers, 7th Avenue at 53rd Street
9:00 a.m. — Registration and continental breakfast
9:30 a.m. — Session I
For many Americans, our experience in Iraq is relatively unique. But that is not true. While the scale of the tasks in Iraq may be unique, the US has undertaken what we now call "nation building" more times than people realize. This lecture will discuss some of the history of nation building by the United States. It will also cover what has been associated with cases of successful nation building. Finally, the situation in Iraq will be viewed in light of these earlier experiences. Richard J. Stoll grew up in Providence, Rhode Island, received his undergraduate degree from the University of Rochester and his doctorate from the University of Michigan. He came to Rice in 1979 and is now a professor of political science. His research interests are in the study of international conflict and American national security policy. He has used computer simulation techniques and statistical analysis to study topics such as arms competitions, comparative foreign policy, and political realism. Stoll recently participated in a 10-university effort funded by the National Science Foundation to collect data on militarized interstate disputes and is engaged in an effort to create events data from online news sources and to predict the outbreak of serious international conflict. He has published six books and a number of articles and book chapters. During his time at Rice, he has won ten teaching awards. In 1989 Jones College honored him as a longtime faculty associate by naming their TV room "Stoll's." He has also been a member of the Jones Beer Bike pit crew since 1988.
10:45 a.m. — Break with refreshments
11:00 a.m. — Session II
This presentation will provide an overview of the different use of film as an educational tool in public health campaigns in the United States and abroad, throughout the twentieth century. Focusing on film clips that address the transnational spread of infectious diseases, Professor Ostherr will concentrate on the problem of capturing and representing the moment of contagion. The primary challenge of these films lies in the need to simultaneously explain the vast scale of global disease migrations and the microscopic scale of bacteria, parasites, and viruses. Addressing these two competing demands has produced some surprising and unintended results. Kirsten Ostherr is the author of Cinematic Prophylaxis: Globalization and Contagion in the Discourse of World Health. She has published articles on documentary, science fiction, and independent art films. Professor Ostherr is currently working on two projects: an article that examines the critique of violence in the mass media in conjunction with the aesthetics of military visual culture, and a new book that uses public health films to theorize the ethics of sponsorship (corporate, governmental, NGO, etc.) in the context of global health research. She teaches courses on U.S. and world cinema, medicine and media, globalization, race and sexuality, and cultural studies. Professor Ostherr recently was invited to present at the United Nations in Geneva on global health and the media.
12:15 p.m. — Lunch
1:45 p.m. — Session III
When temperatures rise, is it one hot summer, or an indication of global warming? Scientists use a four-part method to assess global climate change. They detect the change, attribute it to a natural or man-made factor, predict the extent of the trend, and finally respond to mitigate the effect. This class will show how scientific uncertainty and skepticism increases as we progress through the assessment of a global climate trend. Ronald L. Sass is the co-director of the Center for Education at Rice and is the Harry C. and Olga K. Wiess Professor of Natural Science. A member of the Rice faculty since 1958 and past chair of the ecology and evolutionary biology department, Sass received his PhD in physical chemistry from the University of Southern California in 1957 and his BA from Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois, in 1954. As a Guggenheim Fellow, he was a member of the Department of Theoretical Chemistry at Cambridge University. He served as a National Research Council Senior Fellow with NASA at the Langley Research Center in Virginia in 1988. He was also a member of the ABLE-2A Global Tropospheric Experiment Research Team in Alaska. As a teacher, Sass has been a four-time recipient of the Brown Teaching Award and was named Minnie Stevens Piper Professor in 1999. He also received the Salgo-Noren Distinguished Professor Award. The Association of Rice Alumni awarded him the university's Meritorious Service Award in 2001, and the university's highest honor, the Gold Medal, in 2006.
3:00 p.m. — Break with refreshments
3:15 p.m. — Walk to Museum of Modern Art
3:30 p.m. — Session IV
The Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan was founded in 1929 as an educational institution and has become one of the preeminent modern arts museums in the world. MoMA completed extensive renovations in 2005, nearly doubling the museum's exhibition space and executing a dramatic architectural expansion. Alumni College New York participants will experience highlights of the museum's permanent collections on small group tours led by MoMA's in-house expert lecturers. You'll also have the opportunity to explore the museum on your own both before and after the tour.
5:30 p.m. — Cocktails and hors d'oeuvres reception at Chef Bobby Flay's Bar Americain

Machines Finally Match Monkeys in Key Image-Recognition Test
- Thursday July 3, 2014
There are so many ways that humans are still superior to machines. Though computerized brains can beat humans at things like chess and Jeopardy, they can't always make out an Irish brogue or figure out whether a fly is inside or outside of a glass—just to name two uniquely human talents. But don't get too pleased with yourself. The age of human supremacy may be drawing to a close.

Rights and Responsibilities
Federal and some state laws protect students with diabetes and their families against discrimination and set out the legal responsibilities of the school. Federal laws ensure that students with diabetes and other disabilities have a right to a "free, appropriate public education" without discrimination. In addition, many states have laws that require schools to train school personnel and to provide services to meet the needs of students with diabetes
Federal disability laws provide the following rights to parents or guardian:
- To have their child assessed under IDEA and/or Section 504.
- To hold an IEP or a Section 504 meeting with school and school district personnel with an advocate, attorney, and/or experts, if desired, present to better explain the child's diabetes management.
- To develop an IEP or a Section 504 plan that specifically states the child's needs and the services required to meet these needs.
- To be notified of any proposed changes in the child's plan, to attend any meetings concerning proposed changes and to approve any changes.
In spite of federal legal protections, however, children with diabetes sometimes face problems in getting the care they need in schools. Often, the types of challenges can vary significantly from state to state, or even district to district.
Webinars: Legal Protections at School
- Back to School! Parent Advocacy Webinar - August 24, 2012. Hear from two parents who have been there - not only on behalf of their own children, but working with many other parents to keep their children safe at school. Learn about the Safe at School campaign, school diabetes challenges, federal and state laws, and developing a 504 plan and strategies to overcome challenges. Find key resource for families and schools and learn how to become involved in Safe at School.
- Section 504 Eligibility Process: New Strategies, Information, and Tools for School Advocates - June 30, 2009. This webinar includes information about how the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 has clarified the definition of disability in ways that strengthen the case for ADA and Section 504 eligibility for students with diabetes. Also discussed are common roadblocks to participation in the 504 process that schools and families face, as well as strategies and tools for overcoming those roadblocks. Read more on Section 504.

Professional Development
Nancy Streeter and Georgia Jeppesen, from the Education and Outreach department of NCTC work with Patuxent NWR educator Maria Vonderheid and Rosemont Elementary School teachers as they plan their program
Professional Development
Providing teacher training, through national or local resources, is critical to provide a high quality, innovative program. Workshops provide valuable opportunities for teachers and nonformal educators to develop relationships and share experiences with peers. "It's an energizing time for educators to work together," says one teacher upon returning from a workshop at the
National Conservation Training Center
in Shepardstown, WV; "a time to work with other adults and solve problems together."
NCTC offers numerous workshops for formal and infomal educators however site-specific workshops are encouraged. The followin are suggestions for leadership teams who are developing local workshops.
Compile List of Needs:
Local leadership team should consider developing a site specifiic training that introduces teachers to the program's unique formate and unique characteristics of the refuge as well as familurizing educators with lessons and activities to be taught throughout the program. For the leadership team, the best place to start is identifying training needs.
To identify training needs, leaders are encouraged to use surveys, interviews and other organized methods. Take a look at the following models for ideas.
Sample Needs Assessment Questionnaire
Inquiry Survey
Identify Local Resources for Professional Development
Research organizations that best meet your training needs
Department of Natural Resources
Local University- Extension Offices (4-H)
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)
Local Education NonProfits like Earth Force
Can they complete the task?
Can you afford this resource?
Prioritize Training Needs:
Compiling criteria used for prioritizing the identified training needs is necessary
useful and to keep the leadership team and program focused. If the group comes up with several choices, prioritize what is most valuable and immediate for a site-specific training.
What is meant by criteria?
This could mean anything from time limits to primary audience. Take a look at the following examples:
The teacher training will:
Focus towards new teachers
Cover in class and out of class lessons
Last no longer that three days in the summer
Offer 3 continuing education credits to teachers
Teachers from Rosemont Elementary School plan out their schoolyard habitat with assistance from NCC teacger trainer, Georgia Jeppesen.
Develop Local Workshops:
When developing a site specific workshop or training considering the following questions:
Who is the audience? Teachers? Volunteers? Parents? Resource Specialists?
What is the timeframe to complete this task?
If long term, what steps can be taken to achieve this goal?
How will this workshop be used and modified in the future?
Who will provide the training? FWS/Teachers/Non-Profit/ State Org./ Friends
Where will we hold the training?
How long will it take and when is the best time for partners to attend?
Sewee Sample Agenda for teacher training
Tips and Suggestions for Workshops and Training:
Promote correlation to district standards
Provide continuing education credits for educators
Coordinate with local school district in-service days
Avoid weekends
Provide lots of treats, "give-aways" for classrooms and general resources like CDs and books
Offer at minimal costs
Suggested Topics, in addition to science content workshops:
Grant writing
Scientific methods for data collection and monitoring projects
Evaluation for Environmental Education
Service-Learning techniques and resources
Volunteer training
Integrating technology into the program

Our Work
Visits to primary schools and youth groups
PDF Documents are used throughout this site. Click here to get Adobe Reader to be able to view these documents.
What we do...
The Barn Owl Trust visits schools and youth groups as part of its educational work. We recognise that the children of today are the adults of tomorrow and keeping this in mind we have created a unique educational presentation to help capture the imagination of children through a story entitled "Wings of Change". Lasting between 35 and 60 minutes, the story focuses on the history of Barn Owls on one farm from the end of the Second World War.
About the Story
Presented by a member of our conservation team, the "Wings of Change" story comes to life in the classroom using a pictorial demonstration. As the story unfolds, the reasons for landscape changes and their effects on wildlife are described using the Barn Owl as a focus. The story uses a holistic and cross-curricular approach, including aspects of history, local geography, ecology, agriculture, mathematics and economics.
We suggest a minimum donation of £3 for each download
Together We Can Make a Difference. Thank you!
The story can be adapted to suit children between ages five to fourteen and special needs groups, but it is particularly suitable for children age seven to ten. The visit can be used to enhance class projects such as food and farming, countryside, food chains etc. The presentation is interactive, providing opportunities for children to ask questions. Each visit is finished with the appearance of a tame captive-bred Barn Owl, giving the children a chance to see a live bird at close quarters.
If you have any specific topics you would like a visit to encorporate, do get in touch and we will see what we can arrange!
The DVD
The Trust also produces a DVD entitled "Wings of Change" and a "Wings of Change" schools pack to accompany the visit, which is particularly useful for children of five to ten years (key stages 1 and 2 and middle school). Both are available to purchase through our online shop.
Booking a visit
The Trust gives these talks throughout Devon, Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset. Please telephone our office to discuss details such as available dates and costs. Please try to book the visit as far in advance of your preferred date as possible.
The Barn Owl Trust has worked to make the 'Wings of Change' experience a positive way of bringing conservation and environmental awareness to children. The aim is to help them appreciate, enjoy and learn to conserve their world.
"This is Environmental Education at its very best" (The Times Educational Supplement).
Further information is available on the Educational Resources Leaflet No. 40.

Pellet analysis
The analysis of pellets provides detailed information about the diet of individual Barn Owls. This can be of particular interest in the study of food chains and predator-prey relationships. Please let us know if you would like Barn Owl pellets for analysis and we will endeavour to satisfy your request.

Silowet Couture: Eliminating Miami's Muffin Tops, One Pair of Jeans at a Time
Stacy Glover wants you to feel special. You know, that "OMG this fits me so well I'm pretty sure it was secretly made for me" kind of special.
The self-taught fashion designer traded in his marketing chops to figure out what exactly makes the perfect pair of jeans. "Attentive listening is what inspired me to take this journey," he says. "I spent countless hours digesting the frustrations of women I knew that had issues finding jeans that fit." The result: Silowet Couture.
A play on the word silhouette, Silowet is planting roots in Miami to hopefully get rid of the dreadful muffin top. You're welcome, ladies.
The concept of couture for denim is simple: bespoke, made to order jeans. Custom measurements, patterns, hand stitching and attention to detail are all factors here. And you won't find your boyfriend's jeans at Silowet. The brand is all about showcasing figures, not disguising them. He'll elongate and slim your legs and thighs and lift your butt, sans surgery.
The Design District flagship was selected on purpose, too. The Brooklyn, New York native notes, "I knew for Miami, the denim game was an untapped niche market." Glover plans to tap into this market with private fit parties for clients that want an even more personal and intimate experience, and a web series.
We caught up with the designer to discuss the process behind making that perfect-fit pair of jeans, how to make your denim a staple that turns heads, and why bespoke denim is needed in Miami.
Cultist: What made you decide to go into bespoke denim?
Stacy Glover: At the time, my thought was simple: to globally solve fit problems for all women in need, because surely my close friends couldn't be the only ones that felt this way. The audacity of my thought. Luckily, my relentless ambition to solve problems guided me towards creating jeans exclusively for each clients' individual measurements.
After visiting Paris, I fell in love with haute couture and the painstaking craftsmanship that went into creating the amazing gowns that we all adore on the red carpets. Immediately, I knew what our destiny would be as it relates to how we would make our jeans. Denim is special to me because to date, blue jeans are the one American innovation in fashion that is arguably the most influential everyday, staple item.

Semantic is a package that provides language-aware editing commands
based on source code parsers
. This section provides a brief
description of Semantic; for full details,
see Semantic.
Most of the "language aware" features in Emacs, such as Font Lock mode (see Font Lock), rely on "rules of thumb"1 that usually give good results but are never completely exact. In contrast, the parsers used by Semantic have an exact understanding of programming language syntax. This allows Semantic to provide search, navigation, and completion commands that are powerful and precise.
To begin using Semantic, type M-x semantic-mode or click on the menu item named 'Source Code Parsers (Semantic)' in the 'Tools' menu. This enables Semantic mode, a global minor mode.
). This also activates a set
of special key bindings for choosing a completion: <RET> accepts
the current completion, M-n and M-p cycle through possible
completions, <TAB> completes as far as possible and then cycles,
and C-g or any other key aborts completion.
In addition to the above commands, the Semantic package provides a variety of other ways to make use of parser information. For instance, you can use it to display a list of completions when Emacs is idle. See Semantic, for details.

I really like this lilac shadow. It works very well with my dark brown eyes and hair. I apply it with a brush made for mineral powder shadows, and with primer it lasts all day. I don't like the containe, because I have to tap it onto the back of my hand first, but I didn't take off a lippie because for quality at this price there isn't any reason to complain.

this is a gorgeous lilac shade with almost a slight bluish sheen to it. It is very flattering on me and I like to put this color on the inner lid and use UD's YDK shadow on the outer lid/crease. It just gives a nice little pop of color. The NYX Ultra Pearl Manias never cease to amaze me! The only thing I do not like about them is the packaging.

This eye shadow reminds me of a loose MAC shimmer but much cheaper! I swear it has similar pigment and is finely milled like it too.
The packaging is inconvenient and messy. If you're careful you can knock a little in the lid and use a small brush to apply to your lid or cheekbone. I'm in my mid-20's so occasionally I'd like a little shimmer.

i love this stuff! sooooo pretty.Its so multi functional! its great as a sheer purple eyeshadow, it looks crazy vibrant when foiled as an eyshadow/eyeliner. the best use ive found for this is to mix it with clear lipgloss. its a gorgeous shimmering pale lavender, which looks great with my pale skin and blonde hair. i was hesitant about it, but soo happy with the results. i also tried mixing this with clear nail polish and had similar results to the lipgloss. great stuff, dirt cheap, gorgeous. what could be better?

Another class has gone, a new one will be here soon. For those who have just bid farewell to Wake Forest, it is a time […]

America lives on wheels! Every American aspires to own a car. It doesn't matter if the car is old or new. For every car owner, his car is his ultimate passion.
Used cars are sold in large numbers in America. They are far more economical than new cars. Old cars are an excellent option for people with low income. The cars are low-priced and so ensure high affordability.
You have to be careful while buying a used car because there are higher chances of buying "junk". You may get ripped off by a devious dealer and end up buying a lemon. Hence, lenders consider it risky and avoid approving used car loans. Also, a used car's re-sale value is far less than a new car's. This also acts as an obstacle in availing loans.
Rapid Car Loans believes that everyone shouldn't be judged on the same parameter. So, we offer used car loans. We believe that everyone should have the privilege of buying a car and so provide loans at affordable rates.
Our used car loan program is also useful for students and first time buyers. Both these segments, usually buy used cars. The main problem faced by them is non-availability of auto loans. The reason behind it is inadequacy of credit history. Hence, we offer no credit auto loans for used cars. These loans are a great aid to students in building their credit score.
Rapid Car Loans also offers used cars loans to bad credit borrowers. We do not discriminate anyone on the basis of credit score. We consider several factors before approving your loan application. So, don't hesitate in applying even with a bad credit score.
We also offer pre-approved auto loans for used cars. It will help you to eliminate options that are out of your reach and save your time.
We understand the advantages of buying a used car from a private party over a local dealer. Hence, we have no qualms about approving private party auto loans for old cars.
We offer never-before-seen rates to borrowers with the help of a wide network of lenders. Your application is sent to several lenders who compete for it. This guarantees the best possible rate. Moreover, you can get your loan approved within 48 hours of your application. Thus, we ensure quick response.

Three weeks ago, John McCain, who would be the oldest president in history if elected, released 1,173 pages of his medical records to the press. He did so only after a series of delays, however, and then granted a pool of about a dozen news outlets access to them for three hours, with no photocopying allowed. One reporter whose employer was not invited to view the documents was The New York Times's Lawrence K. Altman. His exclusion was a bit ironic, given that he is an M.D. and was part of the group that viewed the last batch of McCain's medical records, which the senator released in 1999 during his first bid for the Oval Office. Those earlier records covered McCain's well-being prior to 2000, including his experience as a prisoner of war during the Vietnam War and his treatment for melanoma, among other things. Lost month's disclosure covered his life since and showed that the cancer has not recurred and that, despite a few effects of age, he is mostly healthy. There was quite a bit of media attention to the release of the records, but it hasn't always been that way. Altman talked with CJR's Curtis Brainard about how the press has come to be so interested in candidates' health and protocols for covering their ailments.
Curtis Brainard: NPR had a report in 2003 about John Kerry's and Bob Graham's medical histories, which said that there's been a "noticeable change in how forthcoming presidential candidates have been and should be about their health problems." Do you agree?
Lawrence Altman: It depends where your starting point is. I would say, yes, if you're looking at the history of say, presidential candidates or candidates for high office. In the past, White House physicians have been known to lie; candidates for president or nominees have been known to evade the truth, distort the facts, or lie. You've got Woodrow Wilson with a stroke and his wife allegedly running the affairs of the country; you've got Franklin Roosevelt who may or may not have been told how deathly ill he was in his last term, and certainly nothing was told to the country about it; you've got Kennedy every which way not acknowledging that he had Addison's disease; you had [Thomas] Eagleton who had to leave the [Democratic] ticket in '72 because he didn't tell [George] McGovern about his past history of electric-shock therapy and depression; and there was [Paul] Tsongas in the mid-1990s and the fact that he had a recurrence after they had maintained that he was cured of cancer.
I think all of those, collectively, led to the public to want to know more about the health of the people who were going to run their country. There has been a movement for candidates to disclose more information than they have in the past. Starting with [Ronald] Reagan in the 1980s, the Times and I started interviewing candidates; we did their medical histories, and we have done that for a number of presidents and candidates for other offices. And I guess over that period of time, it has been a custom or a standard for the presidents to disclose information about their health.
CB: According to an article in The Arizona Republic, "McCain's Republican presidential campaign called the sweeping health disclosure unprecedented in the annals of American politics." Is that accurate?
LA: It depends on how you want to define this. In terms of the information that [McCain's campaign] released in 1999 — making the records available first to The Associated Press exclusively and then only reluctantly opening them to other reporters, including myself — there probably hadn't been another candidate running for office who had been a prisoner of war and whose psychological constitution was being called into question. That may have been unprecedented.

STARKVILLE — The West Point varsity baseball team traveled to Starkville High Saturday afternoon to take on its Golden Triangle rival in non-district action. The Starkville Yellow Jackets plated three runs in the first and never looked back, earning a 5-2 win over the West Point Green Wave despite being outhit five to four. West Point had five hits from five different players with Bruce Barclay, Ryan Crowley and Jaylin White all singling, while Steffon Moore added an RBI single in the fourth inning.
PHEBA — The Hebron Christian Academy Eagles won their final game of the regular season Friday night over the Kemper Academy Rams, clinching the No. 1 seed in the north heading into the 3-A playoffs.
The Oak Hill tennis team dropped its first district match Monday afternoon 5-4 in West Point. It came down to the last match of the day and the Mavericks of Manchester Academy held off the Raiders to remain undefeated in district play. "We played well despite the weather, but they are a really good team and have 11 returning seniors this year," Coach Brian Middleton said. "I was pleased with how we competed on a nasty day." In boys' singles, John Willis Stevens defeated Alex Dixon (6-1)(6-1) and Will Kelly defeated Matt Huggins (6-3)(6-7)(7-6) in a split set tiebreaker.
Senior West Point Guard Tre Williams inked with East Central Community College Tuesday morning after being named all-district last season averaging 9.75 points and four rebounds a game. Coach Brad Cox said that he thinks he can succeed at the next level because Williams is a solid, all-around player who shoots the ball well from the perimeter. "I chose East Central because I like their coaching staff, and they seem to care a lot about their players and helping them be successful," said Williams. "I just felt like it was a place where it could help me get better."

PHEBA — The Hebron Christian Eagles are now 5-0 in district play and picked up a 13-2 road division win behind four long balls from the Hebron bats. Channing Tapley, Brandon England, Landon Hill and Payton Griffin all earned home runs to propel the Eagles to the victory.
After leading their basketball team to a 26-6 season, four West Point High School seniors have been named all-district by league coaches.
Juan Davis, A.J. Jones, Tre Williams and Demarius Calvert were instrumental in the team's winning season, according to West Point High School Coach Brad Cox, who said he is proud of how each competed.

The grass is greener, the sky is bluer and spring is in the air. And if you're anything like me that only means one thing: Baseball season is in full swing. Flashback about 14 years or so, and picture me a wild-eyed 9-year-old who could not wait to get on the field named after my granddaddy, Spanky Bruce, for opening day of city league baseball. As a kid, opening day of baseball was a lot like Christmas, but 10 times better.
After falling to the Winston Academy Patriots Tuesday, 7 - 5, the Raiders were looking to bounce back in a rematch with their conference foe Wednesday night at home. Only starting 1-4 in District 2-AA, the Raiders were looking to show that they belong in the playoff conversation.

STARKVILLE — Demarcus Henderson had a paper due at midnight. The Mississippi State senior outfielder made sure he had enough time to perfect it and turn it in on time. Henderson had a walk-off single to score Zack Randolph from second base as the No. 16 Bulldogs beat Southeast Missouri 3-2 Tuesday night at Dudy Noble Field. "I really didn't think he was going to score, but when (the outfielder) booted it, I was kind of happy because that gave him a little more time," Henderson said. Henderson finished the night with two hits.

It works fantastic, I don't go to sleep without using it. It cleared up my entire face, and I could not be prouder of my skin. I also love using the tinted one, because I can wear it during the day too!
I never had a skin problem up until a few months ago when I started birth control. Although some say it makes your skin better than ever , that wasn't the case for me. I broke out horribly all over my face, around mouth, cheeks nose forehead you name it! It was horrible I was so embarrassed tried everything from proactive to several prescriptions from my dermatologist. None were working at all until I recently started using tho product about three weeks ago an. It truely is a life saver! I put a thin layer on my problem areas at night and the next morning I already started seeing a difference! It's amazing I also started using oxy maximum face wash in the black and red bottle, they seem to counter act with eachpther which I love! I now only suffer from some dark marks due to the acne and a few occasional pimples other than thy my skin is back I normal and couldn't be better! Super happy about this product!!!
I got this and it helped with my acne a lot especially the sides of my face and forehead but then the place I didn't apply was around my mouth but now around my mouth is so so dark im so embarrassed infront of my brother sisters cousins parents and at school now I cover around my mouth all thetime. I need help right now im trying to wax around my mouth they say it might work over all beside the blackness it good.
I had acne all along my mouth, forehead and sideburns. It was pretty damn awful, until I picked this up at Wal-Mart.
4 weeks later, and I stopped breaking out. 3 months later, and all I have to worry about is scarring.
Make sure you follow the instructions on the bottle. Would definitely recommend this.
This has really helped me with pimples on my forehead. If you put it on before bed, it will clear the acne about 90%. But you need to use it consistantly to get the same reasults after a while.
my mother had used oxy-10 for over twenty years, and she never once had any sort of acne. remembering this just recently, i ran to wal-mart and bought some.
this product literally saved my skin. i suffered from severe blackheads (we're talking about hundreds on my nose) and after using this for less than a week they were completely gone. however, my skin did get excessively dried out, but after applying my moisturizer the problem was solved. i'm going to forever use this product as long as it works because this has been the ONLY thing to completely remove my blackheads. salycic acid never came close to doing the job that oxy-10 did.
Very good to begin with but stopped working after a few months. It might work for some people so give it a try. It does bleach clothes so wash your hands after using it! Not a bad product really but it's not a long term solution.
Wow!!! the only thing that really works for me so far , but at the same time i could also say any 10 % peroxide applied directly to pimple would do the same.. This is just in cream form so its easy to apply. Really does work and i would reccomend nothing else for spot treatment.
I noticed results in one day and I have never been happier with a product...
Oxy Maximum Vanishing LOTION is fantastic! Sadly, it's been discontinued. All they have now is their spot treatment :( The spot treatment works, but it doesn't work to PREVENT. So now I can get rid of the pimples with the spot treatment, but I can't prevent them! It's very dissapointing, and I wish they would bring the Vanishing Lotion back!!!! My skin was FLAWLESS with the Oxy lotion....
It's such a let down to find a product that works 100% for you, and then have it discontinued. Anyone know a product that works as well as the Oxy Maximum Vanishing LOTION?! I've been trying other BP lotions, and they just don't cut it! They've been giving more pimples....so that's counter-productive!

I realize that GONZO DIGIMATION didn't make the list. Could be …

Comment on Top 10 Best Anime Studios by Nick R:
I realize that GONZO DIGIMATION didn't make the list. Could be because it's kinda dead and stuff (well, if it wasn't then it is now thanks to the J.C. STAFF team-up project Last Exile 2. Last Exile 2 didn't even come close to being as breathtakingly brilliant as the first season, but despite that, I really think GONZO deseves SOME credit for its achievements in the Anime industry since a lot of 2000-2007 animes were heavily influenced by GONZO whether in part or in physical production. GONZO offered its 3D and 2D studios to help many anime studios up their game.
GONZO best noted for: Last Exile, Gankutsuou: Count of Monte Cristo, Romeo X Juliet, Le Chevalier D'eon (also a Production I.G.), Read or Die, Chrono Crusade, Tower of Druaga, Kazuma no Stigma (sadly unfinished), and many more very vibrant series/ and movies alike.
If you have a past Anime between 2000 and 2007 that seems like the artwork is a bit above top-notch it may have had help from GONZO's Digital animation department. I was surprised by how many anime GONZO was responsible for myself.
Then again, I was a pretty big fan of J.C.Staff as well. Might still be if they keep pulling things like FATE/ZERO off.
Not for nothing, but I really miss the days of GONZO DIGIMATION. I realize it was a studio that made countless mistakes from production to production, but to be fair, they spent a TON of money to make them.

Emerson - Meaning of Emerson |
[ 3 syll. e-mer-son, em-ers-on ] The baby girl name Emerson is also used as a boy name, though it is more popular for girls. It is pronounced EHM-erSahN †. Emerson's origin and use are both in the English language. The meaning of Emerson is 'son of Emery'. The first name is derived from the English surname. The surname was borne by Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), an American philosopher of the Transcendentalist movement. Forms of Emerson include the name Em, the English Emersyn, and the English Emmerson.
Emerson is popular as a baby girl name, and it is also perceived as trendy. The name has been rising in popularity since the 2000s. At the modest peak of its usage in 2012, 0.068% of baby girls were named Emerson. It was #244 in rank then. Out of all girl names in its family, Emerson was the most popular in 2012. Emerson was thrice as popular as the next ranked name, Emersyn, in that year. Although there were times prior to 2008 that Emerson was more popular with boys, today it is used more commonly as a baby girl name. In 2011, 63% more baby girls than boys were given the name Emerson.
Baby names that sound like Emerson include the English Emmerson and the English Emersyn.
† Pronunciation for Emerson: EH as in "ebb (EH.B)" ; M as in "me (M.IY)" ; ER as in "hurt (HH.ER.T)" ; S as in "see (S.IY)" ; AH as in "mud (M.AH.D)" ; N as in "knee (N.IY)"

Is not available. Though sections have been redacted and more than two dozen interviews are narrated in dry officialese, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's 191-page file on Steve Jobs, released Thursday, reveals numerous lively details about the Apple co-founder's personal life and professional past, as recounted to FBI agents by his colleagues, neighbors and friends.
The document confirms much of what is already known about Jobs, including his drug use, spartan lifestyle and the intense managerial style that created friction between him and some of his colleagues. Yet it also sheds light on Jobs' relationship with the government, revealing that he was given top secret clearance between 1988 and 1990 and was being considered by President George H. W. Sick: Young, Undercover Cops Flirted With Students to Trick Them Into Selling Pot. Working at the Drug Policy Alliance for the last twelve years I have read and heard countless stories of people having their lives ruined because of our country's cruel war on drugs.
Last weekend, the nationally syndicated show This American Life highlighted a story that is so insane, you don't know whether to laugh or puke. Last year in three high schools in Florida, several undercover police officers posed as students. The undercover cops went to classes, became Facebook friends and flirted with the other students.
One 18-year-old honor student named Justin fell in love with an attractive 25-year-old undercover cop after spending weeks sharing stories about their lives, texting and flirting with each other. One day she asked Justin if he smoked pot. Creeping Fascism. The list contines to grow.

Brainwashing & mind control techniques The term "brainwashing" came into common language through the work of American journalist Edward Hunter who was an expert of Oriental issues; the very word being the direct translation of Chinese "hsi-nao".
By "hsi-nao" the Chinese meant certain techniques in dealing with adversaries and/or training of officials. To the Western usage the term "brainwashing" spread in the 1950s through several publications depicting the treatment of American soldiers at Chinese prison camp during the Korean War 1950-1953.
