Geometric Garland: Beautifully Folded Paper Decor. Mini Eco is an UK mommy blog with a penchant for featuring colorful DIY tutorials, and one of the recent projects on there cleverly used platonic solids to make a decorative garland.
The geometric shapes are lovely to look at in their symmetry, and she even includes the templates to each object so that you can print them out yourself. I was particularly drawn to this DIY because so many paper/garland tutorials out there err on the side of frilliness (rather than good design); this one, however is modern and clean and simple, with a emphasis on craftsmanship instead of just craftines.
From the Mini Eco blog: There seems to be a bit of a Polyhedra craze going on at the moment. It seems to me that mathematics has never been so cool.

Quite often when the UPS man delivers a box, K starts spouting off all the things he wants me to make out of our new box. K keeps asking me for a blacktop (aka road), but we've already made one, so I wanted to try something new.

As an added bonus, the second one came in a huge box! We've already made a cardboard boat, and a car, so I was thinking rocket, but as soon as K saw the box he exclaimed that he had to have a school bus. How To Make Colored Rice - Dose of Happy. Over the weekend we made colored rice.

AT&T Center, San Antonio, TX
The San Antonio Spurs had been rolling before coming up short their last time out due in part to a lack of energy.
The Philadelphia 76ers could be faced with a similar issue Saturday night as they conclude a season-high eight-game road trip.
Seeking a 10th straight home win, the Spurs try to get back on track against a 76ers team surely dreading another visit to San Antonio.
One night after beating Milwaukee 117-110, the Spurs (26-9) saw their season-best seven-game winning streak come to an end Thursday in a 100-83 loss at New York. Tim Duncan and Tony Parker scored just 11 points apiece while Manu Ginobili was limited to eight on 2-of-10 shooting for San Antonio, which was outrebounded 48-35 and outscored 36-12 in the paint.
"They shot the hell out of it and I could see it wasn't going to happen," said coach Gregg Popovich, whose team was held to a season-low point total. "Just too low on fuel and their defense was too good. Bad combination, and then they made shots, which makes it even worse."
Getting back home could help the Spurs, who didn't appear too bothered by Thursday's result.
"We lost a game, it's the middle of the season. It happens. We move on to the next game and hopefully get our legs back underneath us. We just won (seven) in a row and lost a game. I think we'll be alright," Duncan said.
"It's a long season with a lot of games. You're gonna win some, you're gonna lose some. We feel pretty good about ourselves right now, I think we're playing pretty well."
San Antonio has been especially good at the AT&T Center, where it went 9-0 in December and outscored opponents by an average of 16.9 points.
That shouldn't come as much of a surprise to Philadelphia (15-19), which has dropped 24 of 25 road matchups in this series dating to 1987 -- including the last eight while managing just 88.4 points per game. The 76ers were limited to 27 points in the second half of a 93-76 defeat during their most recent visit March 25.
Philadelphia also struggled down the stretch Friday in a 109-85 loss at Oklahoma City. Nick Young had 21 points off the bench for the 76ers, who shot 40.5 percent and were outscored 63-43 over the final two quarters. Jrue Holiday added 15 points and nine assists.
Young attempted all eight of the team's free-throws Friday, making six.
"We've got to be stronger, take that ball to the basket and make them foul us," said coach Doug Collins, whose team has dropped five of seven on its trek and 10 of 13 overall. "For one guy to shoot a free throw tonight, I'm not saying anything that that has anything to do with the whistle. So, I don't want that to be miscalculated at all."
No team has played more road games since the start of December than the 76ers, a stretch during which they've gone 2-10. After Saturday they play 13 of 15 at home. Philadelphia has dropped five straight in the second of back-to-backs and is 2-7 in such games overall.
Spurs forward Stephen Jackson is uncertain to be available after spraining his right ankle against New York.

I feel a day late and a dollar short today. I'm drinking a Rockstar (Juiced, with mango, orange and passionfruit to be exact!) hoping that it'll give me the kick in the pants that I'm needing. My mood seems pretty stable today (honestly, from day to day, I cannot tell if I'll have an "on" day or an "off" day until I'm having it) so that's a good thing. But I am getting sick. I've been anticipating this. Liam had a fever last weekend and was under the weather. Before that, Harry had a slight cold. I was worried that Evie would get it but so far so good. Better me than her, right? I just hope that I don't give it to her. Right now it's a sore tickle in my throat, a tickle in my nose that makes me sneeze, a headache and a general feeling of uckiness. Bah.
Still, slow as I'm feeling today I do have two niggling little worries pecking at the rear of my mind. First is Liam. His speech delay. We're canceling with his speech therapist again so that'll be two weeks in a row that we've begged off. Not good. But this month is just insanity around here. Kile is uber-busy at work and I just don't feel as if I could handle both children at that appointment by myself. I need Kile there. Plus, I feel like butt. What I would like is if we get could get in with Early Intervention and find a program that would come to the house and work with him. That would be ideal. But dragging the entire family out and across town every week to pay a copay and watch a lady try to get Liam to say "milk" for an hour just ain't cutting it. I'm sorry, but NO. I can do that at home.
Speaking of speech, the speech therapist at Harry's school wants to work with him too. He's got a slight impediment that should have resolved itself by now but hasn't. I spoke to her on the phone and told her that, yes, by all means, work with him! But she needs me or Kile to go down to the school in person during school hours to speak with her, possibly fill out some forms. As you can imagine, this hasn't happened yet? Why? Because it's AUGUST and Kile is busy and I have two small children at home. Harry takes the bus for this very reason because I can't leave the house. I read a phrase on Baby Bunching yesterday that describes it exactly. I'm in the Nap Trap. The Nap Trap happens when one or more child is sleeping virtually all day long, trapping you in the house. She mentioned coming in before school starts at 9 or after it gets out at 3:30. Well, at 9, Evie is in the middle of her morning nap and at 3:30, both Evie and Liam are taking their afternoon naps. And, I'm sorry, but I don't mess with the naps. You mess with the nap, you throw off the ENTIRE day. With Kile working late because he is UBER-busy at work, I'm not going to throw off my day. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME DO IT.
So in the meantime, I look like a neglectful parent because I haven't come in yet to sign some stupid paper. So sue me.
Then there's Evie. Because my life isn't complete until I have something to fret about concerning all of my children, right? For the most part, she's just perfect. And, as far as I know, she IS perfect. I don't even know if this is something I should be concerned about or not. But she turned 5 months old yesterday (sob) and she has yet to really laugh. Sure, she has done a low chuckle, she has squealed with delight and she smiles at us almost constantly. But no baby belly laughs. Don't they usually laugh by now? Should I worry about this? I want to hear her laugh. But nothing I do seems to do the trick. Ideas? Suggestions? Feel free to tell me I'm a worrisome nitwit.
So there's my Thursday. Full of child-related fretting and a few sneezes and blinding headaches thrown in for shits and giggles. Don't you wish you had my life??

A Performance Management Readiness Review Framework for Governmental Service Providers

Governments are increasingly outsourcing their services to external service providers. A precondition for successful outsourcing is that service providers can be managed at arm's length by the government, via means of performance management. One way of testing whether or not this is the case, is to conduct a performance management readiness review (PMRR). In this article, we will describe a framework that we developed at the request of the Dutch Ministry of Transport, Public Works, and Water Management, to establish whether or not two of its service providers-Dutch Railways and ProRail-were ready to be managed at arm's length. The framework's application will be illustrated by a description of a successful review at the two service providers. The results of this test give us confidence that the performance management readiness review framework can be used for efficiently evaluating governmental service providers.

I've spent the last three days studying for my Spanish exam and I can officially say I am all Spanish'd out! I knew I was reaching my tipping point when I started accidentally speaking in spanish in normal conversation. So I decided to take a break!
The exam is over five chapters so it's not too much but not too little. I cannot wait until it is over so I can officially say I'm a sophomore! It'll be fun seeing all the new students next semester. I remember carrying my campus map trying to find all of my classes on the first day and ended up being a pro at it by the next day!
But now I guess I'll get back to studying for Spanish. Let's just say I know more about present participles and how to say them in Spanish than I ever wanted to know!
Random Video of the Day:
I thought it would be appropriate to have a Spanish video today!

Medical and psychological experts have told parents for years that spanking does not work as a form of discipline.
Despite these warnings, parents have continued to use corporal punishment as a way to keep their children in line.
Now new research backs up the experts' claims and warns parents that when one receives spankings as a child, long-term life-long consequences such as depression and other mental illnesses can be the result.
A new study done by researchers at Canada's University of Manitoba and published on June 27, 2012 by the journal Pediatrics found that adults who received physical punishment like spankings as a child are more likely to suffer from depression, mania, anxiety and personality disorders, alcoholism, and drug abuse and dependency.
The increased likelihood of one suffering from these mental illnesses after being spanked as a child is small but significant.
Researchers drew their conclusions after examining the data given by 35,000 non-instituionalized American adults for a government study taken in 2004 and 2005.
Mental disorders in 2 to 7 percent of that population could be linked to corporal punishment as a child. Of the respondents over age 20, 1,300 reported receiving some form of physical punishment as a child which included being hit, pushed, slapped, grabbed, and shoved.
Those who reported receiving the harshest punishments were more likely to have mental disorders or drug and/or alcohol dependency.
Of those who remembered being physically punished, 20 percent had been depressed at some point in their life, compared to 16 percent of those who had not been hit or slapped.
Also, about 43 percent of those who were spanked reported having abused alcohol in the past, compared to 30 percent of people who did not experience physical punishment as a child.
The researchers did not include anyone who self-identified as having been sexually or mentally abused as a child, or as having experienced harsh physical abuse.
The reasoning behind this correlation is not exactly known.
Children and teenagers should have a right to their bodies, and the right to say "No!"
Currently in the U.S.:
When an adult does it to another adult, its sexual battery:
When children do it to adults, its a "deviant sexual prank":
When an adult does it to a person under the age of 18, its "good discipline".

I've been going to this place for as long as I can remember (15+ years) and it has never let me down. It is my friendly neighborhood burrito joint and I never accept anything less than buddys. The Grande burrito is one hell of a deal and if you're feeling bold, go with the chimichanga, make sure to ask them for their homemade hot sauces.
Posted by Anonymous on 07/15/2012
We stumbled upon this place completely by accident. So glad we did too. Seriously one of the best American Mexican spots we've ever been to. Awesome food! The value is exceptionally moderate and well worth it because the food is made with all fresh ingredients and the porportions are big. Definitely hitting up this spot again in the near future!

I've been going to Buddy's for the past 15 years and have never been disappointed! The food is delicious and fresh ALL THE TIME! An in my book, one of the best restaurants on Court St. in downtown Brooklyn.

I absolutely love the food and service at this place not to mention there guacamole is awesome and they do take-out which is pretty fast considering the distance:)
Posted by George S. on 03/28/2011
Burritos are always delicious. Guacamole and pico de gallo are excellent. I go there regularly and have never been disappointed. The staff is friendly and so are the prices.
Posted by Authentic Mexican value on 08/11/2010
The surroundings are very ordinary, but the food is very, very good. The burger is excellent and the fish tacos are great. It's all counter service, with friendly guys to take the orders. For a quick meal, it can't be beat.
Posted by Greg T on 05/19/2010
Nothing spectacular about Buddy's but the staff was great and helped me pull together a complete meal for my kids. I had a burrito and it was good, the beans on the side were a little plain but hot sauce helped. For the money we all left quite full and would consider stopping by again if we were in the area.

The Fairey Battle suffered very heavy loses during the Battle of France. No.226 Squadron was forced to retreat west, and had to be evacuated from Brest in mid-June, reforming at RAF Sydenham in North Ireland.
In the spring of 1941 the squadron moved to East Anglia, and began a series of attacks on German occupied ports and shipping, swapping its Blenheims for Bostons in November 1941 and for Mitchells in May 1943.
In 1944 the squadron became part of the 2nd Tactical Air Force, operating in support of the Normandy invasions. As the Allies advanced towards Germany, the squadron moved to France, operating in support of the advancing armies to the end of the war.

Mobile marketing can help you to earn a respectable second income, but it can also be a primary income as well. These ideas will help you understand mobile marketing and be successful with your future endeavors.
It is important to get right to the point in your mobile marketing efforts. Keep your offers brief and simple to understand. Your message must come across loud and clear to your customers. This allows them to understand, relate to and absorb it much faster.
Write the minimum text necessary to get your point across when it comes to your mobile site. It is unacceptable to include wordy product descriptions and endless chains of landing pages that do nothing to enhance users' experiences. Mobile marketing success can best be achieved when you keep your content clean and geared towards the sales.
To stay on track with your mobile marketing efforts, decide what you want to accomplish, and write a mission statement that you can stick to. Having a set of rules you abide to will help you avoid making any dishonest decisions.
If you design a standalone mobile platform, it needs a home base to be successful. Your mobile presence is dependent upon driving your customers to that base, or keeping contact with those who are already in contact with you. Do not rely on the mobile campaign alone; develop and design your home base for your customers.
Good mobile marketers gradually climb up the mobile ladder. That is what you should do too. You can start with a text messaging campaign, expand into using mobile websites, then incorporate mobile apps and eventually deliver videos to mobile devices. Keep progressing and improving your overall mobile marketing campaign. Utilize all available tools.
Although many mobile users actively send text messages and use their phones to check their email, not everyone is familiar with popular acronyms. When your advertisement is incoherent to a member of your target market, then this is a possible customer for whom you have lost.
If your business decides to have a mobile app, be sure that your users will appreciate using it. If the app you have devised for your business isn't fitting or convenient, it is only going to bring negative attention to your business.
Keep in mind that mobile users have a more difficult time navigating webpages. Make sure that the mobile marketing campaign utilizes easy to navigate, simple websites. Although these may seem boring on a computer, they are perfect for your mobile customers, and they keep the access there for both types of users.
Location is the key to effective mobile marketing. Your customers will have their mobiles with them at all times and know where you are thanks to this type of marketing. You will be able to find a new location that you were not able to find anywhere else. Carefully consider the potential benefits of a localized approach and look for ways to apply it to your current marketing plan.
Make sure mobile users can see directions to your store on their phone. When people are on the road, they usually have their mobile phones. That is when they might access a map. They will be able to get better access to you if they know where to find you. Have maps that are clear, so when people do a search it is easier to find. Linking to Google maps also looks good to search engines.
It is important to do research about your potential audience. Know them and what their preferences are before you spend lots of money on mobile marketing. Determine whether phone or computer messages will be more effective. What operating systems do their phones use? By researching your audience before launching a marketing campaign, you will make the most of your marketing efforts.
Don't forget about your existing customers when you go after new ones with your marketing tactics. New customers are less responsive to opening messages from you than ones that know you are reputable. Be mindful about how you use mobile marketing. Unsolicited marketing to new customer leads is often considered a spamming technique.
All of the information contained here should show you that mobile marketing is far more complex than many believe. It would need a lot patience and work, but it will surely prove to be worthwhile in promoting your business. Use these tips to improve your profits and sales.

Military conflict in which the contenders mobilize all of their civilian and military resources in order to obtain a complete victory. It is distinguished from the partial commitment of lives and resources in limited war. The modern concept of total war is traced to Carl von Clausewitz, who stressed the importance of crushing the adversary's forces in battle and described wars as tending constantly to escalate in violence toward a theoretical absolute. The classic 20th-century work is Erich Ludendorff's The Total War (1935). World Wars I and II are usually regarded as total wars. After World War II, especially during the Cold War, the prospect of an all-out nuclear war made the major powers reluctant to engage in full-scale international warfare or allow their client states to do so.

Complete reflection of a ray of light in a medium such as water or glass, from the surrounding surfaces back into the medium. It occurs when the angle of incidence is greater than a certain limiting angle, called the critical angle. In general, it takes place at the boundary between two transparent media when a ray of light in a medium of higher index of refraction approaches another medium of lower index of refraction at more than the critical angle. At all angles less than the critical angle, both reflection and refraction occur. Total internal reflection is responsible for rainbows, atmospheric halos, the sparkle of a diamond, and the path of light through optical fibres.

Agriculture in the national news - September 7
A DAILY look at how agriculture has hit the headlines across the country (Tuesday, September 7).
Mobile phone masts needed to boost economic development in the countryside
More mobile phone masts need to be put up in the countryside if the rural economy is to survive, according to Government advisers.
At the moment mobile phone coverage in remote areas of Britain is "patchy", leaving farmers and small businesses unable to communicate with the outside world.
The Commission for Rural Communities (CRC) said much of the problem is a lack of mobile phone masts in certain areas, often because it is difficult to get planning permission for aerials in scenic spots.
Daily Telegraph
Red tape shackling rural firms, says watchdog
JOBS are being lost and businesses prevented from expanding in Yorkshire's countryside as firms are held back by policies which are too focused on towns and cities, the Government's rural watchdog is warning.
The Commission for Rural Communities today says many rural firms are struggling to obtain public money, secure planning permission or meet regulations owing to Government programmes and policies being "too often designed around majority urban characteristics and needs".
Yorkshire Post
Man injured when run over by own tractor in Cornwall
A man from Cornwall is in hospital with potentially life-threatening injuries after being run over by a tractor he was driving.
The man was near the Nansloe Manor Hotel at Helston when he got out of tractor to open a gate and left the engine running.
BBC Online
London wheat closes gap, as French crop upgraded
London feed wheat played catch up once again with its Paris milling wheat peer on Monday, as the French government followed neighbouring Germany in lifting opinions over its wheat crop.
Prices in both markets firmed, helped by Friday's strong finish in Chicago, where the best-traded December contract finished nearly 4% higher, lifted by hopes for the switch of exports from the former Soviet Union.
Russia's Medvedev Forecasts Early Grain Ban Removal
Moscow on Monday gave another mixed signal about the duration of a grain export ban set initially from August 15 to December 31, but European Union grain markets continued to rise, apparently ignoring the latest twist.
President Dmitry Medvedev signaled Russia's ban on grain exports may be lifted earlier than December 31 this year and state grain stocks may be insufficient to cover the drought-hit country's needs.
ABC News
Rising global food prices a real concern for UK inflation
Food price inflation is hitting the headlines as a result of the disruptions to wheat crops in Russia this summer and because of rising demand for meat in emerging markets.
The weather is much more extreme and the drought conditions in the Russian steppes this year have caused a serious decline in wheat output and reduced grain supplies.
I was wrong about veganism. Let them eat meat – but farm it properly
The ethical case against eating animal produce once seemed clear. But a new book is an abattoir for dodgy arguments.
This will not be an easy column to write. I am about to put down 1,200 words in support of a book that starts by attacking me and often returns to this sport. But it has persuaded me that I was wrong. More to the point, it has opened my eyes to some fascinating complexities in what seemed to be a black and white case.
The Guardian
Rural backlash at speed camera cuts
Villages worried that they will be turned into a high speed rat-run are voicing fears that casualties will rise.
Coalition spending cuts have already led to a number of local authorities pulling out of their safety camera partnership or considering doing so.
More are expected to following the Comprehensive Spending Review in the Autumn which will result in even deeper cuts than the £6 billion imposed by the Government shortly after it took office.

Bossier Sheriff Larry Deen says a Bossier City teenager was arrested Monday afternoon after he took four cans of beer from a store in Haughton without paying for them.
Tyler V. Mondello, 19, of the 5400 block of Bobbie Lane in Bossier City, was apprehended by a Bossier Sheriff's deputy after he admitted to stealing four 16-ounce cans of Bud Lite beer from the CVS Pharmacy on Highway 80 in Haughton. The total cost of the beer was $8.00.
The deputy received an anonymous tip that Mondello entered the CVS with a backpack on and appeared suspicious. When Mondello exited the store, the deputy observed him put the backpack in the truck of his vehicle and drive off. When the deputy made contact with Mondello during a traffic stop a few minutes later, he admitted to taking the beer without paying for it.
"Stealing is unethical, it's against the law, and it's just wrong to take something from someone or a business that doesn't belong to you," said Bossier Sheriff Larry Deen. "I want young people to know there are consequences for theft, even if it's only $8 worth of beer; it's not a path they want to take. Think twice about shoplifting, robbery and theft…it's not worth it, and you will get caught."
Mondello was charged with theft of goods and being a minor in possession of alcoholic beverages and transported to the Bossier Maximum Security Facility; bond is pending.

Prepare for Turkey Day with Lots of Rhett and Scarlett
American Movie Classics, or AMC, used to be a top contender with TCM as the place on the tube to view classic films. As the years have worn on, commericals have entered their fold, their classic film expert commentators disappeared, and the movies became more recent and more undesirable. Now, the channel is more known for its award winning television programs, such as "Breaking Bad" and (my personal favorite) "Mad Men".
Not tomorrow! Because frankly my dear, AMC is going back to its classic roots and showing Gone with the Wind for 24 hours tomorrow! With commericals (ugh), it's five hours long! They are showing it at 8:00am, 3:00pm, 8:00pm and 1:00am (Nov. 22). All times are Eastern.
TCM is also showing it (and commerical free, of course) at 10:15pm tomorrow as well!
Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Horror Comics in Black and White: A History and Catalog, 1964-2004
- Posted by Johanna on February 9, 2013 at 5:34 pm
- Category: Books and Prose
- CREDITS: by Richard J. Arndt
- PUBLISHER: McFarland; $55 US
Horror Comics in Black and White: A History and Catalog, 1964-2004 lists all the major black-and-white horror comic magazine titles dating from the publication of Creepy #1 in 1964. (The format arose to carry this kind of content as a reaction to the crackdown of the Comic Code Authority in the mid-50s.) The much-missed Archie Goodwin edited and wrote for the title, while a number of accomplished artists — including Frank Frazetta, Al Williamson, John Severin, and Angelo Torres — drew the stories for Warren Publishing.
The introduction provides an excellent capsule history of the format and genre. As he explains, the author, Richard J. Arndt, focuses on publishers of new stories, leaving out magazines based on reprints, recolorations, or redrawings of existing work. He also includes Warren's Blazing Combat, believing "that a good war story is inherently a good horror story as well." After the introduction come chapters dedicated to the various publishers.
The first, and longest at 150 pages, covers Warren, starting with Creepy's 146 issues and including Eerie and Vampirella. Each title has credits listed and an editorial note pointing out interesting historical facts and background information. The occasional illustrations are mostly limited to cover reproductions. However, since most readers will be more interested in the issue information, it's not a crippling limitation. Arndt does point readers toward the Grand Comics Database, where all covers can be seen. What sets this book apart from simply being a reprint of the same information found there are the informative comments for each issue. They make the reader want to seek out copies of the magazines to see the particular comics and artists Arndt praises so highly.
(There are some pages of interior art included as well, but reproduction can be a bit smudgy. The first example has a smear in the middle, as though someone moved it on the copy machine while it was running or the glass wasn't clean.)
Additional chapters cover Skywald Publications, home of Nightmare and Psycho; the Marvel horror mags published from 1971-1983, including Dracula Lives!, Monsters Unleashed!, and many others (but not Conan, Kung Fu, or other adventure titles); and a catch-all chapter that includes Warrior and DC's Spirit World. There's also a short section on modern horror comics, current reprint editions, and other books and magazines that cover the subject.
This appears to be a labor of both love and hard work, making for a reputable guide to the topic. In addition to research, the author assembled this information by "reading all the original magazines in total" and interviewing editors and artists who worked on them. Stephen R. Bissette, whose Taboo is mentioned later in the book, provides a personal history about discovering black-and-white horror comic magazines in the foreword. More information is available on the publisher's website. (The publisher provided a review copy.)

Marty Raymond may be on the Condors list to replace Matt O'Dette...or he may not be
Raymond among nanes mentioned for Condors job
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - The Condors officially fired head coach Matt O'Dette yesterday at a press conference but is the team heading to the future with a blast from its past?
A replacement isn't imminent but speculation is former Condors head man Marty Raymond may be in the mix to return to the team.
Raymond was successful in his eight years as the head coach of the Condors, including consecutive Pacific Division crowns in 2010 and 2011.
In addition, Raymond is the winningest coach in team history with 265 victories and won 56 percent of his games.

Benzodiazepine tranquilizers are used in the treatment of anxiety disorders. To identify the molecular and neuronal target mediating the anxiolytic action of benzodiazepines, we generated and analyzed two mouse lines in which the alpha2 or alpha3 GABAA (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A) receptors, respectively, were rendered insensitive to diazepam by a knock-in point mutation. The anxiolytic action of diazepam was absent in mice with the alpha2(H101R) point mutation but present in mice with the alpha3(H126R) point mutation. These findings indicate that the anxiolytic effect of benzodiazepine drugs is mediated by alpha2 GABAA receptors, which are largely expressed in the limbic system, but not by alpha3 GABAA receptors, which predominate in the reticular activating system.

Ned Eckersley made an unbeaten century as Leicestershire dominated day two with bat and ball to close in on a first-innings lead over Essex.
The wicketkeeper avoided a nervous night as he moved into triple figures in the penultimate over of the day, driving a Oliver Newby delivery through the vacant third man position and earning Leicestershire a second batting point in the process.
Eckersley was on 104 at the close, with Angus Robson unbeaten on 69 at the other end as Leicestershire reached 255 for two, only 26 runs shy of Essex's tally.
The day began with Essex losing their final four wickets for just 27 runs.
Nathan Buck struck first, removing Kishen Velani for 26, and there was desperately little resistance thereafter.
Buck completed a five-for with the wicket of Newby, all at a cost of 76 runs.
Leicestershire briefly stuttered at the start of their reply when Matthew Boyce was caught behind off Newby for just two but they soon settled down as Greg Smith and Eckersley found their rhythm - and frequently the boundary.
They reached 61 for one at lunch and the runs continued to flow in the afternoon, with Smith bringing up his half-century with a straight drive to make it 95 for one.
Monty Panesar was the man to make the breakthrough for Essex, removing Smith for 59, but again it was a temporary blip as Robson and Eckersley built a partnership worth 139 and counting by the close.
Eckersley brought up his half-century with a huge six but it was little wonder that Leicestershire prospered against a depleted Essex attack, and they were forced to bowl spin from both ends when Tymal Mills went off for treatment late in the afternoon.

POSTED: Thursday, July 28, 2011 - 3:02pm
UPDATED: Thursday, July 28, 2011 - 4:23pm
Baton Rouge, La — A new housing report out today indicates foreclosure rates in the Baton Rouge area are on the rise. These figures, coming from CoreLogic, show foreclosure rates are up from May 2011, over 2.25%.
However, the Baton Rouge rate is actually lower than the national foreclosure rate, which sits at nearly 3.5%.
The report also says homeowners are doing a good job of keeping up with their house payments. The local mortgage delinquency rate is over 5.5%, and that's down from what it was at this time last year.

Hooray! Selena admitted to Ellen DeGeneres on the Sept. 28 episode of Ellen that she will be joining Justin on his 'Believe' tour! Find out all the details.
Selena Gomez loves to support her man Justin Bieber, and she'll continue to do so when he begins his Believe tour on Sept. 29!
"I am going to try. I'm going to make sure I go to a couple of shows but I've just been recording so…" Selena told Ellen when asked if she'd be joining Justin on tour.
The 18-year-old pop star has already left, according to his beautiful girlfriend. And while she undoubtedly can't wait to see Justin again, his bus accommodations may keep her farther away than he'd hope.
"It's too much boys on one bus," Selena added.
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Should Selena join Justin on his tour bus?

Do you know who you are? Most people in this lifetime do not know who they are and why they are here. Remember this: You are a vibrant, incredible, beautiful and amazing light being! Every one of you is an amazing being of light.
When you recognize this, and when you realize and accept this, you radiate such a high light vibration that nothing can stop you in anything that you choose to do. Most of us have forgotten this truth however.
When you are feeling confident and loving, everyone will respond to your positive and high vibration. You have not only lifted up your consciousness level, but you are lifting everyone else's consciousness and energy vibrational level. Your positive high vibration will lift up and positively influence bad people. That is how strong you are. Have a great sense of humor. Laugh a lot.
This raises your vibration and energy level. This raises your consciousness level. Anytime you are in a difficult situation, include humor into that situation. It will dissolve that situation and lift up the energy to another vibration and all the people associated with that situation. People that are laughing and smiling have a high frequency vibration. Associate yourself with happy people and watch yourself become happy. They will lift up your vibration.
Have peace, love and calmness in your heart at all times. These are all high vibrational frequencies. When there is grief or despair, love will heal it. Show compassion for every situation and the frequencies of that situation will be raised. You should always try to laugh as much as possible and have a sense of humor. This raises your frequency quite a bit. When you are laughing, when you are smiling, NOTHING can get to you.
Think of angels being around you. This will always raise your vibrations and consciousness levels as well. Angels love the vibration of laughter and your laughter brings your vibration closer to them. Always carry a sense of joy and enthusiasm in your life and in everything that you do. Stay calm and centered in any situation that is thrown your way. Acknowledge it as a lesson to be learned and take the lesson from the situation and move on to the next lesson.
This keeps you at a high vibration. Always have compassion and gratitude for everything in your life. You are blessed every moment of your life by Father / Mother God. Understanding and accepting this fact will raise your vibration so much. You need a high vibration in these times as the energies are hitting Earth like never before. Stay happy and joyful and laugh!
Now I will tell you what not to do and what lowers your energy and frequency vibrations. Remember first that any high vibrations will always dissolve and transmute the lower heavier vibrations. First of all, do not have any negative emotions. Do not have thoughts of violence, hurt, pain, abuse, worry, or jealousy. Do not be mad. Do not hold grudges for what was done or said to you in the past by others. Do not hold any of this inside of you.
You must release it all. When you swear, you have a dark cloud over your head, so do not swear. Do not judge others or criticize others. Do not be cynical of others. Do not patronize others or their beliefs. Do not make fun of others. Do not get involved in the drama of what is going on in someone's life-the he said, she said or he did she did scenario. Do not take sides in an argument an egg one side on versus another.
Also please understand that you must remove your guilt from things you have done or said in your life. Your vibration is lowered when you do something because you feel that you ought to do it (or not do it) or that you should do it (or not do it) out of guilt. Guilt and fear are such low vibrations. Stay away and run to the hills when you see them. Do not let others force you to do things you are not comfortable doing. This gives them control and you lower your vibration.
Please don't ever do things out of obligation or guilt. Do not let anyone make you feel guilty or place you in fear that if you do not do something (or do something), then something bad will happen. These are all low vibrations. Make your own decisions based on your intuition and from getting guidance from within. Remove all lack of self-worth that may come from any negative self-talk. You are a powerful being of light, remember?
So do not let others sway you based on their insecurities. Change your attitude and find your God Self, your I AM Presence and watch your light shine. Remember who you are and why you are here. You are here to ascend. You cannot do this if your energy vibrational level is low. Just raise it! It is that simple. Just smile and laugh and stand in your light.
Your light will always conquer other's shadows and darkness and you will lead by example and the dark will turn to the light and follow you. Be proud and show the world your light by raising your consciousness and energy level. That is who you are in the higher dimensions; a pure being of light right from God's heart. Take pride and honor this light!

How do I let go? I pray for help and the ability to forgive, but is does not happen. I need to let go of the first twenty six years of my live where I was destroyed time and time again, and I try, and I ask god to change me and change my mind but I still relive many things over and over every day…..I want the anger to go away……..how?
The second I read "you must release it all" my eyes immediately closed and my tailbone area cracked as I cried and breathed out a solid long breath and all of the recent negativity I had been holding onto. Afterward I felt refreshed and recognized which behaviors were lowering my frequency. Thank you creator of all for providing me inspiration each and every day. Peace be unto everyone.
Love it

Special Education
Schools are filled with students; dark and light, quiet and loud, happy and sad, with special needs. For some, it's the need for warmth, patience and support to weather tough emotional times. For others, there is the need for someone to take the time to find out what really interests them, what motivates them and to spark the interest in learning. Special educators work with children who present special challenges to their teachers because of their disabilities and their special gifts and talents. The endorsement in Special Education will prepare you to reach and teach students who are simply variations on a theme of commonalities.
Our program combines course work, interaction with master teachers in schools and community settings, and the opportunity to get involved with special students. You will gain an appreciation of the unique nature of each student and the knowledge and skills needed to meet that student's needs. The demand for special educators continues to grow since approximately twelve percent of all students in elementary and secondary programs receive special education.

I simply used a forced connection between a clenched fist and a film stripe to create the logo. I used a clenched fist, because of the connection with human rights issues and the historical idea behind the fist. The human hand has been used in art from the very beginnings, starting with examples in the Neolithic cave paintings. The fist, or versions of it, have appeared in numerous posters and flyers for student, antiwar, women's, and other political activities.
I believe the connection of the fist with the film stripe connects the viewers with the festival and the connection with the films which are about global humanitarian and human rights issues.
