Every rep counts
What do burpees, box jumps, thrusters, wall balls and muscle ups have to do with advertising? More than you'd think.
Our president recently wrote an article for Ad Age Small Agency Diaries entitled "When good enough is not good enough." How often are we faced with deadlines, client demands, a mounting project load that we just try to "get done" so we can move on? Is it even worth the effort if we aren't going to really give it our best?
This came to mind when I was introduced to the 2012 CrossFit Open. Beginning February 22-March 25 a new open workout is posted each week for participants to complete. Scores of athletes from all over the world compete and the top 60 in each region qualify for Regional's and three men and women per region qualify for finals to contend for the title of "Fittest on Earth."
Everyone at my gym was doing it, so I figured why not? Week one: complete as many burpees as possible in 7 minutes. My lack of enthusiasm showed in the outcome: 83 reps placing me in the 134th position of 419 competitors in my division (Masters). This is when "When good enough is not enough came to mind." When facing difficult and complex situations in my professional life, I strive to push the limits of the data to inspire breakthrough thinking and I thought – if I'm willing to put my all into my professional life, why not into my personal life?
This prompted a total change in orientation. I knew I could actually do this. My new mantra became "every rep counts," as I approached the second week. Week two complete as many reps as possible of Power Snatch: 45 pounds x 30, 75 pounds x 30, 100 pounds x 30, and 120 pounds x 30. Seriously? This one was scary. While the "strong women" in my gym cheered me on I completed 60 reps and moved into a tie for 28th place overall. A new personal record – I hauled 75 pounds overhead not just once but 30 times.
Be it personal or professional, wouldn't it be awesome if we approached everything in our lives seeking a new personal best? It could actually make things much more fun, and I'd bet our clients, families and friends would notice./ Mimi

Special Force Online or SF was once a very popular game in the Philippines. Almost all Internet shops offer this game not to mention many players installed the game in their own desktop at home. My last encounter with the game was back in 2011 and today I stumbled upon on Special Force Online (SF) once more and I kind of curious on the status of the game. In the Philippines this game was handled by Gameclub when I first encountered it but to my surprise GameClub had given up the game. I came to know Special Force is now handled by this DF Interactive PTE LTD from Singapore which they also allow SF for Philippine Players.

SF Online Revisited
Special Force Online – Gauntlet 4 Tournament
Special Force won't be going anywhere soon. Their recent tournament be happening next month. So Troopers!
Get ready and be part of the Gauntlet 4 Tournament. Registration starts on OCT. 30, 2011 and ends on NOV. 6, 2011.
Fix to Special Force Init Error : Unable to Initialize
First things first, Use this solution at your own risk. It fixed the issue but it might not fix yours since there are some possibilities that your computer have different settings.
Here's my scenario. I have several computers and few weeks ago there is a SF patch which was automatically detected by the SF client when it was ran by some of our customers. Some computers loaded successfully while other computers starting to show unable to initilize error. I tried copying the entire folder (C:\Program Files\Dragonfly) from other working Special force folder and pasted to the PC that doesn't work, I tried installing a new SF client from mygame download page, I tried using those cumulative patches but all FAILED. I also was surprise to see three folders that are related to Special Force Online. And its weird.
C:\Program Files\Dragonfly
C:\Program Files\MYGAME\Special Force
C:\Program Files\MYGAME Launcher
I'm starting now to understand that the issue could be path related. Maybe some SF patch is pointing to folder Dragonfly while other patch points to MYGAME\Special Force. So, here are the steps I did to fix the Special force UNABLE TO INITIALIZE error. Forget the C:\Program Files\Dragonfly folder because I deleted it. You can keep yours maybe your SF needs it.
1. Install file Special Force Latest Full Client SFSetup_090511.exe
2. Copy all files inside C:\Program Files\MYGAME Launcher from other computers, from your friends PC or Icafe. Please note SF should be working on the source where you are copying the files. OR you can download it here
3. Extract or Put those files to your C:\Program Files\MYGAME Launcher
4. Then launch the SF client and wait for it to finish getting additional files. You can also download the cumulative Patch for faster update.
Thats all!!
NOTE : If you are having a second thought, you may not download the mygamelauncher.rar. Please also understand I don't work for mygame and so I cannot reply to all your inquiries. Feel free to post your questions on the comment field and lets hope other readers will/can help you.
Help Guide on how to download SF client
I'm still getting a lot of messages and blog comments asking on how to download SF client. It seems that support from mygame.ph is not listening that much to their future SF gamers. Yeah! we know you guys have lot of players already but it won't hurt your business to entertain more Special force Newbies.
Winter Updates from Special Force
I've been spending more and more hours playing Special Force this month. It's really addictive and the challenge is always there since you meet different players with different warfare skills.
If notice there are also some updates on the Game shop. One of the newest updates is this Special Force Winter Gears. You can use your SP or ecoins to avail it.
SF Screen Shots
Today, I took a break from hack and Slash type of MMORPG. Instead I played Special Force Online. Well, its addictive and its full of actions. Every game battle or mission is full of excitement and most of the time whenever you tend to log-out there is this magic that pulls you back to the game. At first, I've decided to just play it for half an hour but I ended up playing this SF for few more hours. I even skipped my early dinner this evening.
Here are some Special Force Screen shots.
Fix to Special Force PC rebooting issue
I've been getting emails and did read some comments on this site asking on how to fix the Special Force PC restart issue. Usually this issue comes out if your PC has low RAM installed.
First of all, this issue happened also to other online games. Secondly, if you are LAZY to read then I cannot do anything for you. Third, this solution solved the issue for some of my friends' personal computers and lastly, try this at your own risk. If you are in doubt then DON'T TRY using this solution.
To fix this try these steps:
1. In the window screen Click START then RUN.
2. Type regedit to launch registry window.
3 Then go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management
4. Doubled click on "PagedPoolSize" then choose Hexadecimal.
5. Typed 18000000 to the value textbox. Default value is zero.
6. Closed window and reboot the computer.
Special Force Friendster Layout
I found this Friendster Layout of your favorite Special Force Online game. Check it out and you might like it. Yeah I know you've seen the images already from Mygame.ph website but I still think its worth checking it out. ENJOY!
Download Special Force Client
I've been bombared with questions about where to download the client of Special Force (SF) for several days now. So today, I've decided to post the important SF links to help those people who have been asking questions about the game.
The Official site of SF here in the Philippines is located at http://sf.ph.gameclub.com I noticed the site somehow load a little bit slow maybe because its a multimedia flash site. Most likely you need to wait unless if you really have a high speed internet.
SF Website : http://gameclub.com
Registration : GO here
Download of Game Client : http://sf.ph.gameclub.com/download/sub_gamedown.asp
I believe that would be it. Please read instructions on their site as well.
Special Force Online
I've been hearing this Special Force which is like Counter Strike Online for several weeks now. Unfortunately, its only today that someone from the publisher which is MicroGaming Technology Corp visited our internet shop and distributed an installer and some posters of this online game. Will see how our Warrock Philippines players test the game after installing it tommorow.

There used to be a tagline on Technorati that went, "55 million blogs, some of them have to be good." We were somewhat comforted by that statement as we began to expand Sweet Digs, our local real estate blog, from Seattle to the Bay Area to Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego. In only a year and a half, Sweet Digs had produced over 4,500 posts covering the West Coast. Some of them had to be good – and they were (so our readers tell us). Now we're bringing Sweet Digs clear across the country to see if some of that New England win streak rubs off on us.
So we've hired a motley crew of real estate addicts to start covering Boston and Washington, D.C. neighborhoods. They are IT professionals, college professors, and broadcast journalists who moonlight as Redfin bloggers so they can write about whether prices have gotten out of hand or not.
One blogger is certain that when it comes to neighborhoods, up-and-coming is preferable to old-money-stagnant. I mean, who would want to live next to John Kerry or Jack Welch?
Another blogger beckons, no, dares you to abandon D.C.'s city life for the suburbs of Maryland.
It's a good start and we promise it will get better. Get Sweet Digs delivered to your inbox by subscribing to the newsletter. If you have any feedback for us or tips on properties that you'd like our bloggers to cover send a message to tips(at)redfin(dot)com. We can even promote your open house on our blog, whether you're a Redfin customer or not.
Let's meet the Sweet Digs Boston team.
Alyk resides in what she considers the greatest city in the world: Boston. As a cheerleader for the city, she's learned to love, or at least appreciate, all things Boston, including impassible traffic, cold weather, and bad attitudes. Alyk loves celebrity gossip, and, somehow, she turned that love into a career. She wrote her first daily column for Suicide Girls in 2005, then quickly moved to A Socialite's Life and Celebrity Baby Blog. Alyk also operates several websites of her own, including CelebWarship, MusicWarship, and the soon-to-be-launched BostonWarship. When Alyk isn't enjoying the cozy, blue glow of her monitor, she tries to take advantage of city life. Exploring her favorite neighborhoods for hours at a time, she often wonders why anyone would choose to live elsewhere.
Cosmo Catalano hails from the far west of Our Fair Commonwealth, where red-blooded Massachusetts residents pronounce their Rs (but are a bit lazy with their intervocalic Ts). By day, he strives tirelessly to save the world by exposing the horrific inefficiencies of car-based culture; by night he does whatever he possibly can to afford living in places where he won't need to drive. Though the urban environment does occasionally grate against his rural-bred sensibilities, Cosmo admits that being able to walk from bank to the bar is pretty freakin' convenient.
Mike Martin is a Professor in the Rhetoric Program at Babson College in Wellesley, Massachusetts, as well as a scribbler of literary fiction. He's also a real-estate nut – "My friends call me 'the land baron' when I start to bend their ears about real estate." When he's not looking for free stuff for the house on Freecycle or Craig's List, he's obsessed by home improvement, gardening and cooking. Mike's specific interest in real estate has a lot to do with the way young people in the Boston area cling to neighborhoods that "…bleed them dry. We have a friend who just looked at a 200 sq. ft. flat in Cambridge for $179,000! You can have a real condo for that kind of money in Salem or Beverly. And you can have a sweet little house, blocks from the best commuter rail service in the region, for a little more." Watch Mike's blog for information about what's going on in the Beverly/Salem market, tips about how to save money while you're moving or moving in, notes about green gardening and home improvements, and the occasional gourmet recipe.
Pamela Reynolds is a writer and painter, formerly a reporter and editor, who begins her days with a little bit of stretching, a fresh cup of coffee, and a quick review of the latest MLS listings. She knows it's not normal and has therefore decided to make use of her obsession by becoming a real estate blogger. She is, however, currently trying to quit the Open House habit. (It's the fifth time she's tried to quit.) Pamela lives in Boston in a 100-year-old building with a dog, cat, and a husband who indulges her property fixation. She has lived in both the United States and Europe and has owned real estate in both places. She enjoys dog walks, movies and knocking down load-bearing walls whenever she can for more light.
Margaret Sanford grew up in Cambridge but has been living in Somerville since 1997. Since her original move to Somerville ten years ago, she has purchased 2 condos, been a landlord, sold a condo and bought a single family using in a 1031 exchange. She bit her nails for almost all of 2005 when the market tanked and her beautiful, historical condo sat on the market for nearly a year before it finally sold. She's also been through a near gut renovation of her current (and hopefully) permanent residence. She was lucky enough to come through this construction project with her marriage completely intact and still speaks very fondly of her contractor.
When she's not blogging for Redfin or working at her IT job, she is frequently seen chasing her children (2 and 4) around Somerville and Cambridge.

20.10.2010 // The EEA Agreement does not cover the management of Norwegian fisheries resources. The co-operation on resource management between Norway and the EU is based on bilateral agreements. Trade in fish and fish products, however, is regulated through Protocol 9 to the EEA Agreement.
The marine eco-system in the waters adjacent to the Norwegian mainland provides for abundant fishing grounds and has made it possible to sustain the scattered and sparsely populated coastal settlements and communities along the entire Norwegian coastline under arctic or sub-arctic conditions over the centuries.The Norwegian fishing industry is represented by a diversified ocean-going and coastal fleet of approximately 6800 vessels employing close to 13 000 people. In addition the processing industry consists of approximately 700 units and a fish farming industry which annually produces around 1 000 000 tonnes, mainly salmon. All in all the fishing industry provides direct employment for between 30 000 and 40 000 people. The fishing industry forms a basic network of regional economic activities heavily dependent upon the sustainable and rational management of the available marine resources. Thus, the fishing industry is of vital regional and national importance to Norway. Management of fishery resourcesAn important element of a sustainable management policy is to provide for basic biological data and research on fish stocks and the eco-system of the marine environment, as well as ensuring that catches are based on the best scientific recommendations available. Total Norwegian catches vary according to annual variations in the size of the major fish stocks, but have traditionally amounted to approximately 2, 5 million tonnes per year. In addition Norway produces approximately 1 000 000 tonnes of farmed fish and shellfish, of which salmon and trout constitutes more than 95 percent. Norwegian fisheries management measures reflect a system of policies and instruments for the monitoring and regulation of key fish stocks based on established principles for international fisheries management co-operation, of which stringent control and enforcement of quotas and technical measures are important elements. This co-operation entails among other things the management of joint fishery resources in the Barents Sea with the Russian Federation, as well as the management of joint fishery resources in the North Sea and Skagerrak with the European Union. Norway has also bilateral fisheries agreements with Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Greenland and has entered into multilateral agreements concerning the management of Norwegian spring-spawning herring, mackerel and blue whiting. In addition, Norway is an active partner in the Northeast Atlantic Fisheries Commission, the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization and in other regional and global bodies for the management of living marine resources.
Trade in fish and fish productsNorway is one of the largest exporters of fish and fish products in the world. Seafood exports are valued at more than NOK 44 billion in 2009 (€ 5, 6 bn). The export supplies major markets – around 150 countries – all over the world. The EU market is by far the most important one with a share of around 60 percent. Seafood exports are Norway's third largest export commodity. Salmon and trout exports account for more than half of the export value. Other important categories of fish products are traditional products like dried and salted fish, frozen and filleted fish, and other processed products.Sources:Fisheries policies, including management and commercial aspects. Basic facts and figures, and information booklets on the various aspects of Norwegian fisheries policy in a variety of languages are available from the Ministry of Fisheries & Coastal Affairs in Oslo.Ministry of Fisheries & Coastal AffairsGrubbegt. 1P.O.

A drama teacher stages a revolution inside a school – and galvanizes a town
In Mississippi, M.J. Etua helps students look outside their own world as they participate in a competition against better-funded programs.
Melanie Stetson Freeman - staff
Louisville, Miss.
The first time Autrianna Thames climbed on a stage, her heart almost burst clear through her chest. She sweated, shook, and swayed; she spat out her lines in a tangled knot.
But sitting in an emptied classroom at Louisville High School, surrounded by three classmates, Ms. Thames remembers that performance as revelatory – a moment when she realized she "belonged in front of an audience."
"It's sort of an empty place in you that gets filled in," says Chris Rash. "The day of our first class, I went home to my mom, and said, 'I know what I want to do with the rest of my life.'
"She said, 'Chris, why do you always have to pick the expensive hobbies? What's wrong with football?' "
In this small, working-class town, 100 miles northeast of Jackson, there's never been much room for theater. Students generally drift toward a nearby technical college after graduation – if they graduate at all – and then back to Louisville to find work in one of the local factories. Poverty levels are high; the educational focus is on practical trades, from accounting to computer sciences.
That's started to change. The catalyst, say students and administrators, is a young drama teacher and actress named M.J. Etua, who arrived at Louisville High in 2001, with the intent of jump-starting the school's drama program.
In November, Ms. Etua's original, one-act play, "He Calls Me By the Thunder," was nominated for a regional competition in nearby Starkville. Against all odds, the Louisville troupe won that competition and, last week, shuttled to the statewide festival in Hattiesburg to square off against a score of more experienced, better-funded programs.

With its new bullx supercomputers, Bull opens up the way
to Extreme Computing
- Bull today announces the launch of bullx, a new environmentally efficient, ultra-dense and ultra-high performance family of supercomputers
- Designed for unlimited innovation, the bullx supercomputers benefit from the know-how and skills of Europe's largest center of expertise dedicated to Extreme Computing
- Delivering anything from a few Teraflops to several Petaflops of power, bullx supercomputers are easy to use by everyone from a small R&D office to a world-class Data Center
- With over 500 experts in Extreme Computing, Bull reaffirms its aim to actively accelerate the growth of the digital economy and innovation, and its ambition to achieve the leading position in Extreme Computing in Europe
Bull has launched its bullx supercomputer: the first European-designed supercomputer to be totally dedicated to Extreme Computing. Designed by Bull's team of specialists working in close collaboration with major customers, bullx embodies the company's strategy to become one of the three worldwide leaders in Extreme Computing, and number one in Europe. With bullx, access to innovation will be simpler and faster, for all kinds of businesses and research laboratories.
Didier Lamouche, Bull Chairman and CEO, comments: "The period of acute crisis the world is going through is actually giving us an opportunity to take a closer look at the practices we have all been using, and to rebuild a world that should be based on two foundation stones: innovation and environmental awareness. By allowing us to carry out tests and build prototypes virtually,computer simulation can help researchers and industry speed up projects and open up new horizons, without consuming actual materials or carrying out potentially risky experiments. This is where Extreme Computing comes in: a formidable strategic tool which opens up the possibility of numerous, spectacular applications that will have a significant impact on people's everyday lives in the future. bullx – the new family of supercomputers which we are launching today – is the most tangible illustration of this vision in Europe today."
bullx: meeting the key challenges of energy consumption, power and operational effectiveness
With the bullx range, Bull is pushing back the boundaries still further, by tackling three key challenges: energy consumption, power and operational effectiveness. Cutting the energy consumption of supercomputers. Co-ordinating the tasks of thousands of processing cores, all running simultaneously. And finally, orchestrating and administering the complexity inherent in such systems... The choice of the components used to create bullx, as well as its architecture, has been guided by its vocation: to be the most effective instrument for innovation. Designed by Europe's largest team of experts in the field, bullx is the product of an unparalleled pool of expertise; created by Bull specialists who offer local proximity, rapid response and the ability to deploy powerful, customized solutions.
bullx: high performance in every dimension, for Computing Centers of every size
Energy-efficient, ultra-dense and ultra-powerful, bullx has been designed specifically for intensive computing by the largest team of experts in Extreme Computing in Europe. With more than 500 dedicated experts involved in the project, this represents an unparalleled skill-base. Built in line with industry standards, and featuring the best Open Source applications on the market, bullx has been expressly designed to enable the construction and implementation of extremely reliable and robust production environments.
bullx's technical characteristics – including its scalability, density, low power consumption and powerful in-built computational accelerators – mean it is an unprecedented platform, which can meet the needs of everything from a small design office to a major international research center, in areas as diverse as bio and earth sciences, energy, the oil and chemical industries, climatology, aeronautics, the automotive and finance sectors…
Designed to deliver anything from a number of Teraflops to several Petaflops of power, bullx guarantees outstanding performance in every aspect of its operation: integer and floating point calculation, speed and memory capacity, internal system communications, input-output power, ease of implementation and use, and total cost of ownership.
An architecture built for performance and high-density, with simplified, ultra-fast connector technology
bullx is built around an architecture that features ultra-dense blade servers interconnected via a powerful dedicated network. This in turn is administered by bullx cluster suite, a software suite developed by Bull using Open Source and standard components.
The choice of blade architecture means that essential components, such as the power supply and links to the high-speed interconnection network1 , are shared within the chassis. This architecture liberates a large proportion of the space that is usually dedicated to connector technology, and makes it simpler to install the blades. So compared with standard configurations, the number of cables required by bullx can be reduced by a factor of two to three. For a large-scale configuration, this translates into several thousand fewer cables, a more compact installation and substantial gains in reliability.
Each bullx compute blade incorporates all the components required to deliver the highest levels of performance, and to process the most complex kinds of workloads: latest-generation Intel® Xeon® 5500 series (Nehalem) processors, memory capacity, and efficient connectivity with an adaptor to the integrated interconnection network that can function without local storage or with SSD-type (Solid State Drive) storage.
A hybrid architecture and energy-efficient technologies for 'Green Power'
The bullx hybrid architecture incorporates blades combining an Intel® Xeon® processor with accelerators using technologies developed for graphical processors. Bull has already demonstrated its high level of expertise in this area, having built one of the most powerful hybrid systems of its kind in the world: performance levels are effectively doubled without any significant increase in energy consumption, to deliver some of the highest performance/m² and performance/consumption ratios on the market.
An ultra-capacitor module improves the efficiency of the electrical power supply by 10-15% compared with traditional power supplies – enabling the system to cope with micro-outages without the need for a supply regulator; a cooling door that consumes at least 75% less power than a standard cooling system; processor control system to optimize electricity consumption; Bull's expertise in infrastructure design to optimize the Flops/m² ratio... by deploying energy-efficient technologies, bullx offers users 'Green Power', while at the same time tackling the challenge of managing energy consumption in very powerful supercomputers head-on.
For Fabio Gallo, Vice-President and Director of Extreme Computing Solutions at Bull Group: "We have designed the bullx supercomputers to respond to even the most extreme demands for computing power, while at the same time guaranteeing maximum energy efficiency. Their hybrid architecture, and the components we have chosen to use and the technologies that we have developed specifically for bullx mean that they are among the most advanced on the market in their ability to meet environmental constraints and reduce the cost of energy consumption."
Higher productivity thanks to an open configuration and powerful administration functionality
Designed by Bull, the bullx cluster suite is built around a Linux system and Open Source components that have been integrated and optimized by Bull's own expert engineers. The suite offers the facility to control the configuration overall – servers, and the interconnection and storage network – as though it were a single system. It simplifies the administration of the infrastructure and the software installation and deployment (so that more than 1,000 nodes can be installed in less than 20 minutes), the monitoring and handling of errors and defective components (from individual processors to the precise identification of an individual cable), the optimization and extension of the cluster. It also reduces power consumption, for example by switching any unused components – manually or automatically - into 'economy' mode. Bull's pledge is to lead all enterprises into an open world, where speed and scalability open up the way to faster innovation.
bullx launch: partners and customers are confident in Bull and testify
Michael Humphrey, VP of Global Partner Program at Altair, Altair
"Altair is pleased to congratulate our business partner Bull on their introduction of bullx. Due to its exceptional performance and scalability, the new bullx systems from Bull will be an ideal platform for customers running demanding, computing intensive Altair RADIOSS crash simulation. Early tests indicate that performance on a typical 64 cores configuration of the bullx system is 69% better than previous generation systems running the standard RADIOSS Benchmark suite. Additionally, Altair's popular workload management and batch queuing software, PBS Professional, has been optimized to take advantage of bullx's modular architecture while making it easy and quick for end users to submit and monitor their jobs. The PBS GridWorks suite is the ideal solution for maximizing these emerging petaflop clusters from innovative companies like Bull"
Cardiff University
Professor Martyn Guest, Director of ARCCA (Advanced Research Computing @ Cardiff)
"We chose Bull as a supplier for ARCCA because we were impressed with the quality and expertise of Bull's cluster design and technical knowledge. Since then, the quality of the provided system and services is proving to be, as expected, first-class. So I am very happy to witness the announcement of Bull's new generation of high-density, energy-efficient supercomputers, and bullx will definitely be in our thoughts as we plan to upgrade the ARCCA system."
Steve Conway, IDC, Research Vice-President, High-Performance Computing Group
"Research carried out by IDC shows that Bull has been gaining ground in the market for HPC (High-Performance Computing) systems in the EMEA zone, particularly over the past two years. Bull's new bullx architecture is even better suited to meeting buyers' demands in terms of scalability of processing power and energy efficiency. The bullx systems are designed to ensure that users get maximum performance from their applications and it is worth paying great attention to them."
Richard Dracott, Intel Corporation General Manager of High Performance Computing
"Bull's new blade system, designed specifically for HPC, leverages the technological advances of the latest Intel® Xeon® processors, such as the Intel Turbo Boost and Intel QuickPath Technologies, and takes advantage of the Intel power management tools. This combination of Intel and Bull skills will allow the deployment of even faster and more reliable HPC clusters, while optimizing energy efficiency"
University of Cologne
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ulrich Lang, holder of the Chair of Computing Sciences and Director of the Computing Center at the University of Cologne.
"Bull's bullx solution provided the best response to our needs in terms of computing power, density and energy efficiency, even for the most demanding of our users in the scientific community. It will help us to respond to the most exacting requirements of our researchers in an extremely wide range of areas, including life sciences, chemistry, climate prediction and physics."

If you dont ride park I would not recommend Swain. They have limited trails and most are poorly maintained. I was there last weekend. A few runs were okay but most of the actual trails were terrible. They were at least 40% mud and rocks.
I would recommend Bristol Mtn. |

swain is a excellent place for a family w/ kids. Known for there lessons and programs. Great/friendly staff. One of the "less challenging" mountains in the area. (based on steepness, not terrain park)
If you go to Alfred State/University, they have a bunch of programs/deals through swain. |

An inability for English-only listeners to understand the lyrics won't detract from the impact of the record, however. With its bossa nova rhythms and airy flutes, Defect is a Brazilian pop record at heart and because Ze uses such touches sparingly, the non-musical elements, such as a power sander at the intro of "Defect 5: O Olho Do Lago (The Eye of the Lake)," aren't obtrusive. Ze is crafty enough to give those sounds a presence without allowing them to become gimmicky. The "brrrrrr" of the power tool carries over from the simple, bass drum and piano opening to the stepped-up, ominously funky bass and percussion of the verse. The oddest moment comes on "Defect 14: Xiquexique" (all of the song titles awkwardly begin with the word defect) with what sounds like a person brushing his teeth to the music while rhythmically opening and closing his mouth. But don't try this at home.

Women's Law Caucus Program Looks at Initiative to Help At-Risk Women in Delaware
Web Editor
- Published: November 6, 2012
"The reality is that we often have to give more than second chances," said Commissioner Mary McDonough of the Delaware Court of Common Pleas as she discussed the Women in Support of Health or WISH program on Monday, November 5th. Calling the process of helping at-risk women engaged in prostitution "a long road," McDonough said of WISH; "I don't see this as a short term program."
McDonough's remarks were part of an event put together by the Delaware campus
Women's Law Caucus
that included a screening of a short documentary film about WISH. WLC President Beth Steinberg, who organized the event, said, "This powerful documentary sheds light on an invisible, highly stigmatized group. I hope the film and our speakers will remind attendees of the importance of breaking down stereotypes and thinking outside the box to seek justice and compassion always."
Developed to fulfill the
Delaware Coalition for Health and Justice
's mission of promoting the health of at-risk women engaged in prostitution, and to reduce the target population's reliance upon sex work and related criminal activity, the WISH program is funded by a grant from the U.S. Office on Women's Health. The program seeks to provide gender-sensitive case management, assistance with substance abuse treatment, trauma-focused therapy, education, and housing assistance.
Direct service provides and grant partners affiliated with the program include Beautiful Gate Outreach Center, Brandywine Counseling and Community Services, Stand Up for What Right and Just (SURJ) at the Delaware Center for Justice, and Survivors of Abuse in Recovery (SOAR).
In addition to Commissioner McDonough, guest speakers included: Associate Executive Director for the Delaware Center for Justice and Co-Chair of the Delaware Coalition for Health and Justice Joanna Champney; Sara Yarnall, Senior Program Manager, Brandywine Counseling and Community Services; and Sara Grainger, the Director of Community Planning and Policy Development.

Reports: University of Miami Will Receive NCAA Allegations in Days
Categories: Sports
The AP reports NCAA investigators will hold meetings with people believed to have committed infractions as early as Monday, which would signal the near completion of the investigation.
Once the university receives the NOA, it has ninety days to file a response. Once the committee on infractions reviews the allegations and the response they will finally hand down sanctions.
That could happen as soon as May or June.
According to CansesInsider.com, the NOA is expected to be delivered in 72 hours. Though, because the University is private it can chose what it releases to the public. (What gets leaked is another story).
While, the football program is at the center of the investigation, both the men's and women's basketball teams may also be hit. This is the first time the women's team is said to be involved.
The football team has already sat out what amounts to three post-season games in anticipation of the sanctions, including this year's ACC championship game.

Defra critised over lack of British food purchases
DEFRA has been criticised over its poor record in sourcing domestic food at a time when it is pledging to promote British produce.
The Department sources less than one-third of its own food from British producers, a figure that has prompted stinging criticism from Opposition MPs, who claim there is 'confusion' within Government over the issue.
Defra Secretary Caroline Spelman was asked in the House of Commons last Thursday to clarify 'what proportion of food purchased by her own Department is sourced in the United Kingdom'.
She replied that the 'figure is 18 per cent', although a Defra spokesman later said this was a mistake and put the actual figure at 30 per cent.
In the Commons, Mrs Spelman explained that World Trade Organisation rules mean that while Defra can require purchasing to British standards in Government procurement, 'we cannot require produce to be British'.
"We adhere to those rules, and we actively promote Government buying standards involving all Departments sourcing food that is produced to British standards in order to promote those standards," she said.
Shadow Defra Secretary Mary Creagh seized on the comments, claiming the Government was missing an opportunity to support British farmers and food businesses by buying more British in its £2 billion-a-year food purchases.
She demanded to know why Defra bought less than a third of its food from UK producers in 2011 and what Mrs Spelman 'intends to do about it'.
She claimed there was 'confusion across Government' about how UK souring was measured. For example, 'Number 10 has not revealed how much of its food is sourced from the UK', she said.
Mrs Spelman denied any confusion and insisted the figure was just as low under the Labour Government. "The difference is that the Government have placed a requirement on all Departments to procure food to British standards," she said.
But later, Mrs Creagh said: "Ministers, who are responsible for enforcing the 'Buy British' code across Government, sourced less than one third of their food to this standard. Defra seem somewhat confused about their own actions."
The Defra spokesman described the 18 per cent figure as a 'mix up'. He said the proportion of food in the Defra canteen sourced from UK producers was 30 per cent. This includes 43.5 per cent of meat, 67 per cent of poultry and just 23 per cent of fruit and vegetables.
He explained that UK sourced is defined as 'guaranteed UK provenance which can be fully traced back to the source and does not include products 'of mixed origin', even though may have been produced or manufactured in the UK.
"Defra's caterers already source 100 per cent of the milk, pork, and beef that we serve from the UK and we expect to see more quality, high welfare produce in our canteens," he said.
The controversy will add spice to an Opposition debate on food poverty, scheduled for the House of Commons on Monday afternoon.
Opposition MPs were intending to press the government on rising food prices and its lack progress in introducing the Grocery Code Adjudicator.

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - One child is in critical condition after a police chase ended when the vehicle being chased crashed into a day care center Thursday afternoon. Three other children and two adults were also injured in the crash.
According to Indianapolis Metro Police, a chase ensued after a robbery of a Family Dollar store at 51st Street and Keystone Avenue. It ended when the suspect's vehicle crashed into Stepping Stones Child Care at 46th Street and Allisonville Road just after noon. The vehicle caught fire once it hit the building, but it is not known how much damage it caused.
Seventeen children were inside the building when the crash occurred. Methodist Hospital reported they are treating four children, and one of them is in critical condition. The injuries of the other three children are not known. One of the adults injured was taken to Methodist and the other was taken to Wishard Hospital. Their conditions are not known.
Investigators said normally 70 kids attend the day care, but several of them were on a field trip to see "Disney on Ice" at Conseco Fieldhouse. The children who attended the show did not return to the day care center and parents were notified to pick up their kids at the Fieldhouse.
Two people inside the vehicle that crashed into the day care were taken into police custody.
"There is possibly a third person involved in this and that is part of the investigation," said Lt. Jeff Duhamell of the Indianapolis Metro Police Department.

BATON ROUGE - Ten thousand sandbags were placed on the levee at North Street in downtown Baton Rouge today to prepare for heightened river levels.
A crew of about 40 stacked the sandbags four to five feet high in areas where the levee dips.
The low points are about 47 feet, and the city wants a level of 51 feet as a precaution.
Two miles of the levee will also be reinforced with new tube barriers filled with water, which will add another foot-and-a-half to the top of the levee.

The Casa Tóló by Alvaro Leite Siza Vieira, son of internationally-known architect Alvaro Siza, is one of the most striking houses in recent history. Rather than appearing like a house, it brings to mind the remains of a distant culture or even some sort of bunker. Its form is inexplicable, a series of stairs and platforms hugging the side of a steep hillside in northern Portugal.

Gunung Mulu National Park
Travel Guide
Gunung Mulu National Park (Mulu for short) is Sarawak's flagship national park, and averaging around 15,000 visitors each year, it's also its busiest. The main attractions here are its cave systems and the sharp raggedy limestone pinnacles, although just being in close proximity to the forest while also enjoying the luxury of a hot shower also has its charms.
Being Sarawak's only UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, Mulu is a big draw for tourists. As such booking at least two to three weeks in advance for park accommodation and longer tours, such as the Pinnacles Trek and the Summit Trail in the peak season (June till September), is an absolute must.
Founded in 1974 and named after Gunung Mulu, the park gained UNESCO World Heritage status in 2000. The park has played host to decades of research in and around its cave systems, and to this day there are unexplored systems and the provenance of some of the underground waterways are as yet unknown.
That is not to say that prior to 1974 there was no human activity in this area. The Mulu–Long Seridan crescent was traversed by the nomadic Penan and to this day it's said that there may be one or two bands who roam this area. However the vast majority have been resettled in either Batu Bungan or Long Iman, two villages within close range of the national park.
Due to its remote location, emergency facilities are scarce at Mulu, so bring a comprehensive med kit especially if you are going to be doing the longer hikes. There is a medical centre about 30 minutes' walk from park HQ or about 10 minutes by transport. Very serious illnesses will require helicopter evacuation, so it's worth ensuring you are insured for this.
Gunung Mulu National Park has a double price system. Malaysian adults pay 15 ringgit for a five-day pass (7 ringgit for kids) while non-Malaysians pay 30 ringgit (10 ringgit for kids).

Archie Digests for September 2008
- Posted by Johanna on October 12, 2008 at 5:03 pm
- Category: Archie Comics
Archie's Double Digest #192
The lame new story that opens this digest has Archie trying to get Jughead to fake a funny video to win money. No one ever says anything about this being cheating or a bad idea. Instead, it's a reason just to see Archie hurt or beat up.
That's why I found it so surprising to enjoy much more a couple of the reprint stories that follow. Why? Because Archie is a much more dynamic character. Instead of things happening to him, he takes stands and achieves change. In one, Veronica's been taken in by a couple of fake mediums, and Archie and Chuck expose their scam. Another is even better: a new student has become the school prankster, annoying everyone. Archie catches him, figures out why he's doing it, and gets him onto the school track team, where he can get the attention he's seeking in a way that makes everyone happy.
I miss an Archie who shows why all the girls would be interested in him. He's dynamic and responsible, instead of a klutzy one-dimensional figure of fun.
Archie's Pals 'n' Gals Double Digest #125
Archie's newest "New Look" story begins here. After starting with Betty and Veronica, then doing one with Jughead (a bad match for the approach, I thought, given how exaggerated his appearance is), now it's the turn of Midge and Moose.
That's not a bad choice at all, since the characters could use some exploration. They're the longest-running couple in the Archie "universe", and most readers don't know very much about what keeps them together. When they appear, it's usually to have Midge flirt with Reggie, who then bears the brunt of Moose's anger. Funny slapstick, but when thought about, disturbing. Is Midge happy with Moose? If so, what does she think about his overprotectiveness? If not, does she stay with him out of fear?
After a two-page recap of how great their "New Look" approach is, the story begins with Betty and Archie conveniently discussing the characters we're about to meet. I haven't seen so many head-and-hand panels since I stopped reading old romance comics. It's odd to see figures drawn so differently in design but looking so much their same exaggerated selves in terms of gesture and expression.
In this story, Midge decides to go out with Reggie behind Moose's back so she can better determine "what [her] true feelings for Moose are". Seems to me a better option would be not dating anyone for a while, but there's a reason they quit calling the New Look books "more realistic". My favorite part of the whole piece was seeing Reggie look ridiculous in a popped-collar polo.
Betty & Veronica Double Digest #164
The story in which readers vote to pick Cheryl's new boyfriend (begun in Double Digest #161) continues. It's a shame I didn't read this until after the voting deadline (October 6), since this third guy, a motorcycle-riding popular chef, is the best yet. He seems more rounded as a character than the other two, who were more two-dimensional clichés (a jock and a geek). In addition to having his own talent, George also uses his knowledge of psychology to get rid of Cheryl's annoying brother Jason; is willing to tell her off when needed; and has a fan club of his own, providing fertile material for future stories in which Cheryl, used to being the center of attention, gets jealous. George is so interesting a character that I wonder if the writers have already decided on him or are simply stacking the deck to get the guy that they want voted for.
The second new story in this digest nicely shows how active Betty and Veronica are, with them playing golf and tennis at Ronnie's country club, then biking home. The punchline is predictable, but the simple premise is refreshing, even if the actual activities feel several decades out of date.
The reprint stories range from oddly intriguing (Betty thinks the life of a plastic doll would be nice, so she writes a poem about it) to outright ugly (genius kid, drawn with a freakishly large head, attends Riverdale High). It was interesting to see a reprinted Katy Keene story (included mostly to plug the new collection). I really do wish that Archie would bother to credit its artists at times like these, because I was very curious to know who drew it in such a larger-than-life style and obvious 80s fashion. It was cool to see hair care tips for readers included, too.
I must also mention another story that caught my eye: a new female art teacher asks students to bring in art from their walls at home. Veronica shows up toting original Van Goghs, Picassos, Monets, and such. Once the teacher recovers from the shock, she points out that "there is a great misconception out there that the truly great artists were male" and goes on to make her teaching lesson about the contributions of women. Then Veronica finds out that her Daddy owns plenty of those, too, only they're in a special wing "dedicated entirely to woman artists throughout the centuries." Something of a mixed message, there, I think, but it is nice that he lets her take more of them to school because art should be shared with everyone.
Several more stories this issue deal with Betty and Veronica scheming to outsmart each other, whether it's over preventing the other from dating Archie or who gets which lead role in the play. While playing into stereotypes of female cattiness and competition, they do provide some spark that's missing in the blander "we're all friends together" modern tales. I particularly liked Veronica's opening thought balloon in one, as she enters Betty's kitchen,
"It's almost nine PM, and she's packing a picnic lunch! Strange! But then, middle class people are kind of strange."

October 12, 2008 at 11:07 PMOne bit of dialogue in the Moose/Midge story had me scratching my head—namely, Betty's use of cartoon "swear word symbols": "True. Nevertheless, that's no excuse for Moose to be so @#&%! temperamental." Kind of odd to me to see Betty of all characters "swearing" (vs. someone like Reggie or, well, Moose); are there any stories in the "regular" looking comics (or the previous "real look" comics put out) that showed Betty talking like this?

November 9, 2008 at 12:36 AMI read the Midge/Moose story today. It was pretty head scratching for me.
I think it has to do with how time and society has changed. I'm sure back then it was looked at differently for a big guy to be so defensive of his girlfriend.
Now.. well when even his "friends" have to be scared if they say something that goes against his girlfriend's taste. For fear of being beat up, well it makes him seem like a downright pyscho.
So much else about Archie has changed over time. Betty and Veronica being friends is the biggest of course. Yet other things like Diilon's smarts being appreciated, racial diversity, Reggie being shown to have a heart under his bravzado.
Moose needs to have some type of change as well, be moved beyond, or Archie needs to stop doing stories that point out things that don't work if thought on. (like superhero stories that revolve around superhero identities)

text: This is like a cross between a product like Lip Fusion and Sovage Lip Plumper. This and Sovage smells almost identical. The texture of this is somewhat balmy and somewhat like a serum. I think it worked. It works like a moisturizing plumper as opposed to the ones that irritate. This felt somewhat tingly, but my tolerance is high and I would actually prefer more. Strange, I know. I like to use these in conjunction with irritating lip plumpers. I think the effects of these kind of lip plumpers last longer.

Prof Wolfgang Feist, the founding father of the Passivhaus eco-building concept during his visit to the UEA. Photo by Simon Finlay
By CHRIS HILL
Wednesday, February 6, 2013
The man who set the international benchmark for low-carbon buildings visited Norfolk to survey ambitious plans to construct the UK's "greenest building" in Norwich.
Prof Wolfgang Feist, founder of the Passivhaus movement, was at the University of East Anglia to discuss plans for the Norwich Research Park (NRP) Enterprise Centre – a £15.9m project which is expected to go before a planning committee in March.
If it wins approval, the enterprise centre could become the largest Passivhaus building in the country and will ultimately become a centre of research and development for the eco-building movement within the UK.
After four hours sharing his ideas with the design team, Prof Feist said: "It is very impressive.
"They have a lot of interesting goals about small and medium businesses, and using local materials and I think this is the right way to go. It is very well designed.
"This will be a convincing solution, not only on the energy issue, but also on the purpose of the building, which is the most important thing, always.
"I think this is one of the first university buildings that is going to be built, even in Europe, and it is quite interesting to see the enthusiasm and the imagination of the whole crew."
If approved, the planned 4,000 sqm enterprise centre would include teaching rooms and a 300-seat lecture theatre, supporting an estimated 500 local businesses, and creating more than 250 jobs.
Although it would be built to highly energy-efficient standards, its green credentials are also based on the low "embodied energy" in the construction materials.
That means using renewable natural products, sourced as locally as possible – including timber from Thetford, thatch-clad walling panels, and Norfolk reed, chalk and flint.
Project architect Ben Humphries, a director with London-based Architype, said: "Because Passivhaus is quite an emerging activity in this country we are, to a certain extent, pioneers within this country so it is good to have this validation and experience from Prof Feist.
"He has made some very practical suggestions where perhaps we had over-complicated the design. We are able to head into the detailed design phase of the project with a lot more conviction now we have had that validation from the top man at the Passivhaus institute."
Whilst there are about 30,000 accredited Passivhaus buildings worldwide, there are only about 50 in the UK, including Hastoe Housing Association's recently-built 14 homes in Ditchingham, near Bungay, which received their accreditation directly from Prof Feist during his visit to Norfolk.
Features of the homes include whole-house ventilation system, improved insulation, water-saving taps and shower fittings, low energy lighting, recycling facilities and solar panels.
John Lefever, Hastoe's regional head of development, said: "Prof Feist told us it was the first time he had presented a certificate in person in the UK. We are delighted with the accreditation and to have him here was the icing on the cake. The development was a partnership with the local authority, the architects and the builders all coming together and the result is the tenants are living in properties that have very, very low running costs."
Prof Feist also visited Broadland Housing Association homes in Fulmodeston, near Fakenham.
1 comment
Right Professor, your brief is to use only locally available materials, ideally recycled and or grown here in Norfolk. A building with the most minimal need to transport the materials used in it, over large distances, without using concrete or any other energy intensive industrial processes for its components. The building should have a self sufficient sewerage solution and its own rain water retention. Its roof should generate enough electricity for its lighting with a passive heating system. If others can build such a house, he can do this any time. I have full confidence in the Professor.
