About this project
I am Here Now. And this is a personal transformation like nothing I've ever done before.
Since the debut of my first CD "My Own True North," I've continued writing, creating, and making music. I've – how do you say it – evolved creatively, thanks to the many people who have come into my life and invited me to contribute to their projects.
I've done harmonies, piano solos, collaborations, gigs, concerts, and mini-tours to Austin (thanks Rox & Charlie) and Seattle (thanks Tracy & Neil). I've contributed to a dozen recordings by local musicians.
I've won Best Female Vocalist in the 2010 Worcester Music Awards, and was named to the Top 20 Hit List for 2010 in Metronome Magazine.
I've been called a "compelling independent folk musician" (Worcester Magazine), with "the voice of an angel" (Metronome Magazine), and "a prolific and prodigious songwriter" (Michael Moran, Amazing Things Arts Center).
I attended a mind-blowing, life-changing conference for people who want to change the world in Portland, OR this past summer. These three days took everything I thought possible in the world and blew it out exponentially. The thing is, I've always been great at having BIG IDEAS. The issue for me has been getting through the self-imposed obstacles that get in the way.
Sometimes, all those questions and doubts in my head serve a good purpose. They keep me honest and true. They get me asking the right questions. They serve as a moral compass.
But other times, not so much. Other times, they hold me back, and they keep me down.
It's time for that to change. It's time to make HERE NOW a reality.
What does this mean? It means I'm taking my music career and kicking it up to the next level. No – scratch that – I'm kicking it up like, a dozen levels.
I'm going back into the studio to make a new album.
My goals for Here Now are bigger than I ever thought possible. The music will have a bigger sound. There WILL be a band involved. There will be more production happening. I will need more help - and I will be able to lay off the Type A part of my personality, and be accepting of new ideas from unexpected places. ;-)
It all starts with the music.
They say if you want to be a writer, write. If you want to be a painter, paint. If you want to be an artist, make art.
Well, I'm a singer-songwriter. I've written a bunch of new songs. I'm ready to make my next album. And I want it to be Big. HERE NOW.
The thing is, it is going to take a lot for me to make a record that kicks it up these dozen levels.
And I Need Your Help. Here, and Now.
Please have a look over there ---------> at all the rewards that are available. If you can make a pledge, that would be SO AWESOME. Every teeny tiny little bit (and every great huge bit) helps me reach my goal.
If you didn't know: the way Kickstarter works, if I don't reach my goal, I GET NOTHING. And you pay nothing. So it's a win-win for you – no risk – if I don't reach my goal, you won't be charged a penny.
However, I REALLY REALLY want to reach this goal. I am standing on the edge of a major life changing moment here. Seriously. And the only way I'm jumping over the edge is with your help! You are my parachute! ( And I love you already for that.)
Can you – make a pledge – tweet my link – like this project on Facebook – tell your friends – and spread the word in any way you know how? And leave a comment to share the love here too? I will be forever thankful.
In addition to the fun rewards over there -------->, I'll be sending out updates throughout the recording process to express my eternal gratitude and share all the ups and downs of the process with you along the way. It's going to be transparency at its most transparent. I'll be honest. I'll be flip. I'll be cranky and sleep-deprived sometimes, and ridiculously silly at other times. I'll have baggy eyes and bad hair some days. Won't that be grand? And you'll get to hear (and maybe even see) all about it.
So if you don't want to miss out on any of the fun…
Let's make a record! HERE NOW.
Risks and challenges
With HERE NOW as my 2nd solo album, and having been a part of many other recordings over the past 5 years, I've learned a lot from my own and from others' experiences in the studio.
In addition to my music, I have 11+ years of professional project management experience (thank you, day job!) to lean on to help me organize the recording process and get it done. I've already organized a projected budget and schedule, with milestones along the way - the plan is to be done tracking by late December, mixed and mastered by early February, and CD in hand in the spring of 2013.
To make sure I'm on time and within with the project budget, I've already compiled estimates from engineers, musicians, etc. to make sure I have an accurate sense of my expected costs. To keep cost overruns down, I'll be doing as much live tracking as possible to minimize overdubs and additional studio time.
Although there are risks with any recording project, I am so completely committed to getting this album done. There's just no doubt in my mind that it will happen. It will be done.

By: Brandi Montgomery
MEMPHIS (March 16, 2014)- Smiles … Laughter … Tears, this experience was a once in a lifetime and there is no place else that I would have rather spent my Spring Break. Every connection and network I made throughout this week will be used tremendously. Beginning last week with a wonderful church service to lead us into a busy week was a great start. We were able to go to six different sites and meet numerous of people. Aside from the different mixers and mingling sessions with alumni, we were able to influence others just like they had done when talking with us. During our visit in Memphis Tennessee, we completed service at Wells Child, Planned Parenthood, Mt. Zion Christian Cemetery, Boys and Girls Club, Juvenile Detention Center and last but definitely not least Northside High.
The Memphis site had two groups; education and health. I was a part of the health group. Each group had to continuously get up around 5:30 and 6:30 and be ready to board the bus around 7:15. This was the only bad part about spring break. We were housed within Boulevard Baptist Church gym for free of charge. There is no words or gift that we could give back to say Thank You. Indeed, we gave back with a small deed by helping the church pack variety of boxes filled with foods to give to the homeless. I was overwhelmed to do this labor because I knew that this food would be placed on tables that are less fortunate.
We were awakened so early to arrive at Well Child by 7:45. We were able to learn so many different things from the different doctors. Well Child is a free health care provider for Shelby County Schools in Memphis. They go out to the schools and provide free screening, eye test, ear test, etc. to these students that would less likely get these types of check-ups if it weren't for Well Child. We, Howard students were able to help them by providing a new name for Well Child, coming up with new incentives, and different ways to get the children to receive a check-up. In other words we played as if we were a marketing company for Wells Child. The judges responded with bright smiles after the different groups relayed their ideas and skits. It was my pleasure coming up with ideas and by knowing that the outcome would get more students encouraged to check their health made be happy.
Speaking on health, we also learned about safe sex. After receiving and completing training we were awarded a certificate of completion for Sexpert Training: Sexual Health Training for Educators and Advocates by Mrs. Elokin. To spread our knowledge we went to the Boys and Girls Club filled with teenagers and young adults to speak with them about having safe sex. Although some of them already had children of their own, they told us that the information was very helpful for their future. While some of the Boys and Girls thought they was already experienced and knew the information they found out otherwise during a game that we played. I really wish that we had spent more time with this group.
As well as with the Juvenile Detention Center. The boys was appreciative to have us come and speak with them about something positive. As we spoke with them they told us that no one has ever came and told them anything good, everybody always come yell at them and tell them that they will never be anything or put them down for the mistakes that they have already made. Having this conversation with them was not only effective for them but effective for me as well. There is no such thing as a greater sin, I understand by law they have to be locked up but they should still be treated as humans. I hope to really be able to stay in contact with them by writing them during their stay. I want to continue to encourage them because the future can still be theirs.
Last but not least, the children of Northside High during the Education Summit. This High school consist of about 200 students and is on the verge of closing down. Aside from all of the children personal life issues they remain strong. In just one week I was able to gain numerous of mentees and a bond with these children. They trusted me enough to open up to me and for that I am thankful. I truly have faith in these students and I will make it my duty for them to strive for excellence and have faith in their selves. Many of them had already become discouraged because of where they are from so they no longer believed in dreams. But by the last day each one of them had goals, and were confident that they would achieve them. I will be attending their graduation in three years, and I will be staying in contact with them. They definitely have a spot in my heart. "Who are we, NORTHSIDE! Where we from, NORTH MEMPHIS!"
Overall this 15 hour bus trip to Memphis and commitment to serve and help rebuild this broken community was worth it and needed. Being that I am a people's person, it was not hard for me to cope with others and meet new people, I actually had fun standing in solitary with people I have never met and affirming their humanity and values. It has made me value life more and encourage me to make a change. I have learned life lessons that I will carry into my future. I have valued every moment with my fellow ASB participants, people I met, and the legacy of Howard University.

They could be lounging on beaches or cavorting with hometown high school pals.
Instead, a busload of college kids from the nation's capital are using their spring break to perform community service this week in metro Detroit — where their days start at 5:30 a.m., and their nights are spent on air mattresses in the gymnasium of a Redford Township church.

ASB, DC, Diversity, Reflection
By: Kalen Kennedy
WASHINGTON (March 15, 2014)- Reigning from different regions and towns as far as the Caribbean to Detroit, our ASB DC group has experienced a vast amount of suffering and devastation in one manner or another. Their stories are as unique as any other
Visiting Covenant House, however, still managed to be a life changing experience for each and every person who volunteered. The very first day, three of our group members and our site advisor were able to sit and have a heart to heart with three different youths in what began as a panel discussion. They discussed life and goals, staying on a positive path, education, child raising, and being true to yourself and God. The connection that these Howard students made with three young men in Covenant House helped them learn to acknowledge people's humanity and not merely their life situations. Yes, some of the members spent most of their time at Covenant House hiding, in order to avoid reorganizing their disheveled (to say the least) library. On the way back to what would become the group's headquarters, Howard's School of Divinity, they listened to the mixtape created by the members of the Covenant House, astonished to realize that this compilation of songs was created not only by children, but also that it focused on their goals and aspirations. The music created by these bright, young children allowed the nostalgia to resonate in each and every group member.
With the group being split into two different sites, one at the Elsie Whitlow Stokes Community Freedom Public Charter School and the other at Paul Lawrence Dunbar High School, each group member had a completely different experience. Each experience was magnificent, nonetheless. In the elementary classes each volunteer was loved by the students; to the point where the children literally cried and held on to the group members' legs so they could not leave. From playing with the kids at recess to motivating them in the classroom, the volunteers grew closer to the children than ever could be imagined. "Working with the babies has given me the motivation to wake up each morning and continue serving. They love when I show up in class every day, and I love them right back," says one of the volunteers. Those who worked at Dunbar high school have not only created strong supporters of HU and its legacy, but they have also formed relationships with students who do not have that many positive relationships in their life. The high schoolers were even more sad than the young children were to see their volunteers leaving.
Over the past week, my life here in DC as a Howard student has been completely flipped upside down. I've connected with not only students but people in my community; people who are struggling more than I could have ever imagined. I guarantee that I will see these people soon and they can continue to make the great influence on my life that they already have. As a volunteer group we've served together, we've laughed together, we've shared together and we've cried together. We have become a family and if I didn't see even one person ever again then it would really hurt. I saw how much my new family has actually contributed when I looked in the eyes of those we were serving. I absolutely believe that we've changed lives and we will be following up on every project that we've been involved in. I found a new love for DC, Howard, and my Howard family.

DETROIT (March 14, 2014) — Today marks the last day of service for ASB Detroit. The week has ended with a "Rally for Education" at Osborn High School. Several motivational speakers spoke to students in Osborn's gymnasium to celebrate the importance of education and commemorate Howard University for their service with Alternative Spring Break. The speakers included the President of University of Detroit Mercy, Antoine Garibaldi, the Emergency Manager of Detroit Public Schools Jack Martin and ASB Detroit site coordinator Chelsea Gaddis.
This rally was very inspiring for both the ASB participants and the students of Osborn High School. It was also a very emotional day because it was the last day for the mentors and the mentees.
The rally and the ASB participants will be featured in the Detroit Free Press tomorrow.

Mõvenpick ice cream takes me straight back to Switzerland where I was a teenage au pair. Country bumpkin that I was, I found the ice-cream parlour serving Mõvenpick sundaes to be amazingly glamourous. My introduction consisted of a magnificent affair with 15 balls of differently flavoured ice-cream - I remember it well. So when I was sent two tubs of their ice-cream, two sundae glasses and matching spoons, I was all set to relive my dissolute youth. I chose Swiss Chocolate which not only tasted of rich dark chocolate but also contained generous amounts of Swiss chocolate shavings; I paired it with a contrasting creamy White Chocolate containing chunks of white chocolate. Both were way too tasty and the leftovers didn't hang around in our freezer for very long. These two, along with eight other flavours, can be purchased in 900g tubs from Ocado.
The ever-inspiring Elizabeth is hosting We Should Cocoa this month over at Elizabeth's Kitchen Diary. She has chosen chocolate ice cream and toppings recipes - you can do either or both. Ice-cream in July is becoming a bit of a tradition. Do have a look at the July 2013 We Should Cocoa ice-cream round up. Well I knew I was going to be getting some chocolate ice-cream, so I needed to come up with something particularly good for a topping.
CT gave me a most wonderful book for my birthday, Mast Brothers Chocolate: a family cookbook by Rick & Michael Mast. The book is full of dark and luscious recipes along with stories of their bean to bar chocolate making adventures. A recipe for hot caramel fudge sauce caught my eye and I knew that was the one I wanted to use for my sundae and my entry to We Should Cocoa.
Chocolate Caramel Sauce
- Melted ¼ a cup of golden caster sugar in a pan over medium heat, then allowed to simmer for a couple of minutes until it turned a bronzy colour. Removed from the heat.
- Meanwhile heated ½ cup of double cream in a separate pan with ½ tsp of vanilla extract until hot.
- Poured the cream into the caramel and stirred hard until all was smooth.
- Added 100g chopped 70% dark chocolate and stirred until melted.
- At this point my caramel ganache separated out, so I heated a ¼ cup of cream and poured this in, stirring carefully. Thankfully this worked and I had a thick but beautifully smooth and shiny warm chocolate caramel sauce.
This is how I made:
Blackcurrant Sauce
- Simmered 150g blackcurrants with 75 ml water for about ten minutes to soften the fruit.
- Pressed the mixture through a sieve, extracting as much juice as possible. Threw the remaining pulp in the compost.
- Stirred in 1 tbsp of icing sugar.

- Cashew and Pineapple Sundae
- Lemon and Blackcurrant Sundae

This month's Blogger Scream for Ice Cream over at Kavey Eats is all about holidays. Well, the Swiss sundaes that inspired this were not exactly holiday related - I don't think I've ever worked so hard as I did when I was an au pair. My entry is, however, travel related, so I hope it counts.
- 2 blackcurrant brownies - quartered
- 6 small scoops white chocolate ice-cream
- 4 small scoops Swiss chocolate ice-cream
- ½ cup hot caramel fudge sauce (see above)
- ¼ cup blackcurrant sauce (with an optional slug of added cassis for extra decadence)

Following execution of the confidentiality agreements, Matrixx provided the parties with access to non-public financial and other information regarding Matrixx, including access to an on-line data room. The Company's management and legal advisors also conducted multiple presentations on the Company's business and prospects, during which times they responded to questions of participants.
The interested parties that had signed confidentiality agreements reviewed non-public information about the Company and most attended one of the initial presentations by management. However, by the midpoint of the go-shop period, the bulk of the parties had dropped out, leaving only a handful of interested parties. Sawaya Segalas and the Company's management continued to engage in discussions with those parties and respond to their questions. Following subsequent meetings and discussions, each of the remaining parties advised Sawaya Segalas that it was no longer interested in continuing to conduct due diligence on the Company and that it would not be making a proposal to acquire Matrixx. Additionally, Sawaya Segalas has not received any indication from any party that signed a confidentiality agreement that it intends to submit an offer to acquire the Company before expiration of the go-shop period, even though Sawaya Segalas requested that parties do so by the close of business on Tuesday, January 18, 2011.
Despite the broad solicitation and access to and interactions with the Company's management and its legal and financial advisors, to date none of the parties contacted has submitted a proposal, nor has there been any indication of interest from any other

Stream Laura Marling's Forcefully Folky 'Master Hunter'
'Once I Was an Eagle' is due out May 28 via Ribbon
First Jay-Z name-checks Bob Dylan's "Idiot Wind," now comes another mention of a classic Dylan kiss-off, from a less improbable source. Laura Marling has actually been performing "Master Hunter" live for more than a year, but the song will appear on the British singer-songwriter's upcoming album, Once I Was an Eagle, out May 28 via Ribbon Music. "It ain't me, babe," Marling sings, nodding to Another Side of Bob Dylan while describing a harder-edged side of herself, backed by pounding drums and acoustic guitar that riffs toward heavy rock. Her hunting skills, here, involve not catching prey but curing skin so "nothing gets in." Listen exclusively below, and let Marling work her way into your head.

China said on Tuesday that both Beijing and Moscow oppose foreign intervention or forced regime change in Syria, as Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived for a security summit.
China and Russia, both permanent members of the UN Security Council, have blocked efforts by Western powers to condemn or call for the removal of Syrian President Bashar Assad, whose forces the United Nations says have killed more than 10,000 people since March last year.
Both countries have stayed in close touch on Syria and believe there should be an immediate end to violence, adding that political dialogue should begin as soon as possible, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Weimin told a daily news briefing.
"Both sides oppose external intervention in Syria and oppose regime change by force," Liu said. "We believe ultimately the Syrian issue should be properly addressed through consultation among different parties in Syria. This is in the fundamental interests of the Syrian people. China and Russia have been playing, in their own way, a positive role on the Syrian issue."
Russia and China, wary of any Western-led military intervention in Syria, say UN mediator Kofi Annan's plan is the only way forward, but have twice blocked UN Security Council resolutions which would have condemned Damascus and perhaps led to sanctions.
Syrian rebels said on Monday they were no longer bound by a UN-backed truce because Assad had failed to observe their Friday deadline to implement the ceasefire and had only attacked government forces to defend "our people."
Putin is attending a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which also includes former Soviet states in central Asia.
Among the talks between Russia, the world's biggest energy producer, and China, the largest consumer of energy, will be a natural gas deal which Moscow hopes to finalize after years of negotiation.
Also on the table is a multi-billion dollar joint venture to build a long-haul aircraft, Russian media have said, and a state-run fund to invest in Russian and Chinese projects.

George Steinbrenner(Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The New York Yankeeshot stove has felt more like an icebox this off-season, and every one wants to know why.
As this winter has been full of mix messages, causing a wave of emotions amongst Yankee fans with some sad, others angry and the rest remain in complete denial.
While other MLB ball clubs are getting stronger, faster and younger the Yankees have gotten perpetually worse; and fans have Hal Steinbrenner to thank for that.
So it is about time George's son gave some answers behind his logic because what is happening here is unfair, unjust and it is damaging the game of baseball at its core.
So, if you got the chance to sit down with Hal what would you want to know?
Well, here are the six questions I would ask the Yankees inherited owner.

Devery is deaf to his doubters. He quietly does his job, and so far in this 2011 season, does it extremely well.

Salt Traders is proud to be the exclusive United States importer of Danish Viking Smoked Sea Salt. Danish Viking Smoked Sea Salt is made in a style devised by the Vikings, thanks to the efforts of one man in Denmark, who took it upon himself to rekindle this millennium-old tradition. Danish Viking Smoked Sea Salt is produced by first evaporating seawater, then using a "fizzing" (evaporating) process, which takes place in a vessel over an open, smoky fire containing juniper, cherry, elm, beech and oak. "The resulting salt," according to the April 2002 issue of SAVEUR Magazine, "tastes like a bonfire."
Suggested Uses for Danish Viking Smoked Sea Sa:

I knew that salt improves the taste of food and that there were some "specialty salts" but never did I dream the Danish Viking Smoked Salt would add both flavor and a deep smoked smell and taste to food. I originally bought an ounce for "bragging rights" because it was touted as one of the most expensive salts but after tasting it I just bought a pond as one of my kitchen staples in out family's kitchen as well as in the kitchen of the Outdoor Wilderness School we run.
Great Product!

This salt makes revitalizes my salmon and green salads. I use a mortar and pestle to grind it to a finer grain so I can sprinkle it easily, withou wasting it.
Posted by Anthony Biscaia on 7th May 2014
So I recently got a new batch and the smoke flavor seems a little different but that could be due to the aging effect on my previous batch. Still highly recommended, this stuff is addictive so you've been warned.
Posted by Mike Werner on 6th May 2014
Works miracles on any food, gives it a slight and nice smoky smell and taste. This is my 3rd purchase of this salt, never regretted it.
Posted by Tony B on 15th Apr 2014
I bought a couple of 3 oz jars of this a few years ago and still have some left but will need to restock soon. Mine still have the old label, not sure when that got changed. I use it in different ways but my favorite is to just dip my finger to scoop up a few grains to lick straight. Salt heaven.

USDA loan and if I would qualify
Also, At the time I did not qualify because of my credit EQ was 600 and TU 601. He was worried that I had too many derogatories and only my car loan as a the only acct in good standing, no lates. Since then I have paid some accounts and deleted others. This is what is currently showing on my credit report
Car loan opened in 2011 - no lates
Cc with capital one (250) opened in July of this year - no lates
Two Sallie mae paid loans- currently reporting 4 120 lates from 2006!
Two closed cc in good standing (walmart, 1st premier)
One charge off from Target from 2009
One settled account with Capital one in 2010
One paid utility collection from 2010
AU on my moms walmart CC opened in 2009 no lates but utl is 30%
My current scores are EQ 620 and TU 617, would I qualify? Also I have a credit advisor that told me to open a secured credit line at my bank, is this necessary? I appreciate your opinion.
Re: USDA loan and if I would qualify
if your trying to buy a place within the next 6 motnhs. you don't want any new credit lines at all or hard inquiries.
usda is no down payment but i have heard from this forum that funding seems to be a little sketch right now. I thought about doing usda and just went with fha.
Re: USDA loan and if I would qualify
I went with USDA Gaurantee. The first thing that pops out at me is that I would need to know what is the Lender's Middle Score required, mines had to be 640 Fico. I had to have three trade lines reporting with NO LATES in the past 12 months. MB disqualified my Student loans because they only reported for 11 months so that left me with only two positve trade lines. MB went with a non-traditional tradeline (electric bill) and it was such a pain in the keyster. Please give yourself time to pull your scores up a little higher, I think this will help with interest rates and UW. I paid NO DOWN PAYMENT FOR USDA GAURANTEE, Seller paid almost all my closing cost. Hope this helps....
Fako October 2012: TU 706, EX 641,
Re: USDA loan and if I would qualify
Jpersat-are you going through USDA Gurantee as well? How many trade lines do you have?
Thank you guys for your info I really appreciate it !
Re: USDA loan and if I would qualify
I had just one card in my name only. I am joint with my husband on two vehicles, and an authorized user on a few others. And yes, USDA guaranteed.
Starting Score: 492 02/12
Current Score: TU: 668 (FICO), EQ: 668 (FICO). EX: 651(lender pull 9/27/12)

Delaware GOP Demand's Budget Cuts to Head Off Red Ink
By Don Rush
Delaware Republican leaders in the state legislature are demanding spending cuts to meet $41 million in red ink under Governor Jack Markell's $3.5 billion budget.
Senate Minority leader Gary Simpson said his party was calling for a 2 percent across the board reduction for all state agencies.
And Republicans threatened to withhold their votes on the state's annual capital budget unless cuts are made.
The Delaware Economic and Financial Advisory Council yesterday lowered its revenue estimate upcoming fiscal year by $19 million compared to April estimates beginning July 1st, while another $14 million hole is facing lawmakers before the current fiscal year ends on June 30th.

NATO meeting: Chuck Hagel misses his debutant ball
With the nomination of Chuck Hagel in limbo, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta travels to Brussels to warn other NATO defense chiefs about effects from US budget battles.
Chip Somodevilla/Reuters
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is meeting with NATO defense chiefs in Brussels to deliver the news that Washington's unresolved budget battles will have an impact on US participation in Europe's defense and the alliance's military readiness.
Underscoring an image of Washington dysfunction is the fact that Secretary Panetta, who bid farewell to the Pentagon last Friday, had to take this trip at all.
Under other circumstances, this week's NATO meeting would have been the debut event for former Sen. Chuck Hagel (R), President Obama's nominee to replace Panetta.
But Mr. Hagel's Senate confirmation is stuck in limbo with Congress on recess this week. The troubled nomination suffered a new setback Thursday when a group of 15 Republican senators called on Mr. Obama to withdraw Hagel's nomination.
The senators – among whom is Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and James Inhofe of Oklahoma, ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee – justified their demand by saying it would be "unprecedented for a Secretary of Defense to take office without the broad base of bipartisan support and confidence needed to serve effectively in this critical position."

Alson, Hello, Well I did some searching today to see if I could find Margaret Hoag in cemeteries in Dutchess County but had no luck. But I did find Samuel's sister Catherine in the same cemetery as Samuel. The inscription says Catherine Wallbridge mother of W.K. Wallbridge born 1-3-1766 died 12-1-1848. She is buried in Allen grounds with Samuel. So I am thinking that so will be Margaret and Samuels second wife. Ann

Hiddink eyes major upsets
10 Jun 2008 - 10:19:58
Guus Hiddink has admitted he is leading an unknown quantity into action as his Russia side prepare to kick-off their Group D campaign with a clash against Spain.
Russia's lead up to their first game has hardly gone smoothly with playmaker Andrei Arshavin suspended and leading scorer Pavel Pogrebnyak ruled out of the entire competition through injury.
But Hiddink is hoping an attacking philosophy can help his side upset their more fancied rivals.
He said: "I am very curious because it's the first time they will act on a huge stage.
"I want them to go out and play good football, I want them to make Spain's life very complicated.
"I don't want the frightened and timid performances of some previous tournaments.
"Very few of my players have top-level tournament experience but they've reacted to the hard work I've set them.
"Our intention is to break the pattern so far where the favourites have always won."

I spoke with a very well informed yahoo store expert who literally "wrote the book" on yahoo stores...and he said there was basically no way that he was aware of to do this. I've asked everywhere I could think of to this point to no avail.
This should really not be a difficult feature request right? Page A 301 redirects to page B...write it to the .htaccess or whatever equivalent there is.
If I have missed something, and someone knows of a way to do this, please let me know. If not please yahoo give us the ability to at least do page level 301 redirects
The loss of sales due to search engine rankings, outweighs the benefits the platform provides.
Since they are doing rev share, you would think they would want to cater to the established ecom market rather than just to the new etailers.
The market has matured and they need to adapt their product offerings to this growing market.
I have a site on yahoo right now and it doesnt do as well in google as a couple other sites that i have. Just wondering if this could be the reason.
Thanks T
Right now with Yahoo basically your stuck to keeping the same url but putting whatever the new content is on that old page. That's the only way i know of to keep the link juice.
A 301 domain redirect is the same principal but allows you to redirect one domain to another.

Following the Supreme Court's directions to the Medical Council of India (MCI) regarding treatment of people living with HIV, the Karnataka Medical Council (KMC) has issued guidelines to all private doctors, clinics, nursing homes and hospitals to submit quarterly report of HIV patients treated by them to the National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO).
The Supreme Court has directed the MCI to furnish information in respect of HIV patients, who are clinically evaluated to be in need of second line anti-retro viral therapy (ART), to NACO.
"Every physician shall maintain the medical records pertaining to their in-patients for a period of three years from the date of commencement of the treatment in a standard format given by the MCI," according to a press release issued by KMC Registrar N. Vidyasagar.
"Failure to comply with the directions shall be construed as professional misconduct," the release said.
Further, if any request is made for medical records either by the patients, their attendants or legal authorities, they should be given within 72 hours, it is said.
The anti-retro viral therapy is now available free at 284 ART centres across the country.

RCDRKD Extensions
This section describes the RCDRKD debugger extension commands. These commands display WPP trace messages created by drivers. Starting with Windows 8, you no longer need a separate trace message format (TMF) file to parse WPP messages. The TMF information is stored in the regular symbol file (PDB file). Also starting in Windows 8, drivers can use the WPP Recorder API to write trace messages to a circular buffer that is always available, regardless of whether WPP tracing has been explicitly enabled for the driver. The RCDRKD commands read messages from the circular buffers, format the messages, and display the messages in the debugger. For more information, see Part 2 of the USB Debugging Innovations in Windows 8 video.
The RCDRKD debugger extension commands are implemented in Rcdrkd.dll. To load the RCDRKD commands, enter .load rcdrkd.dll in the debugger.
The following two commands are the primary commands for displaying trace messages.
The following auxiliary commands provide services related to displaying and saving trace messages.
- !rcdrkd.rcdrloglist
- !rcdrkd.rcdrlogsave
- !rcdrkd.rcdrsearchpath
- !rcdrkd.rcdrsettraceprefix
- !rcdrkd.rcdrtmffile
- !rcdrkd.rcdrtraceprtdebug
The !rcdrkd.rcdrhelp displays help for the RCDRKD commands in the debugger.

Swiss driver Fabio Leimer will get his first taste of Formula One power next month when he drives for Sauber at the Abu Dhabi young driver test. Leimer, 22, will get one day at the wheel during the three-day Yas Marina session, with Sauber reserve Esteban Gutierrez driving for the other two.
Being a racing driver, of course, you always dream of Formula One, said Leimer. That this dream is now coming true is almost unbelievable. On top of that not many Swiss drivers have ever had the chance to test for the Sauber F1 Team.
For this reason it is an even more special honour for me to be able to get my first laps in an F1 car under my belt as a Swiss for the Swiss team. I am very much looking forward to that challenge and want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has made it possible.
Leimer, who hails from the Kanton Aargau in Switzerland, was a GP2 race winner in 2011 and has previous single-seater experience in series including Formula BMW, Formula Renault and Formula Master.
We are pleased we can offer Fabio this opportunity, added Monisha Kaltenborn, Sauber CEO. The test opportunities for young drivers are extremely limited nowadays, and it is always exciting to see how they deal with all the complexity of a Formula One test.
The Abu Dhabi young driver test takes place on November 15-17 in the week following the 2011 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Great letter. Wish I had known their policy before I spent over $250 there last week. No more.
This is a discussion on Asked to leave Sweetwater Tavern in Centreville VA within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Great letter. Wish I had known their policy before I spent over $250 there last week. No more....
Great letter. Wish I had known their policy before I spent over $250 there last week. No more.
I agree. Great letter by the OP and I too am with Sixto as it's also a great right that the business owner has as well. (Yes I own a small business as well.) It's also the most important right that we have as CCW'ers to take our money and our right to protect what is important to us elsewhere. The most important thing is to tell that business owner WHY.
I also call into the quesiton the veracity of the post that was concerned with the OP not paying when asked to leave. When the owner of the business decided to quit providing the expected services due to their own internal policy they forfeit a portion if not all of the expected revenue from the expectation of services they did not fullfill. It would be pretty hard to sell at a jury trial that when told "we won't provide the dining experience you expected but we'd still like you to pay anyways." People generally don't respond to that very well.
Tad A.
Perhaps if they are really trying to have a family restaurant, they should forego the alcohol. Then, people won't be forced to open carry and they won't have to worry about kids seeing the guns (or the drunks).
P.S. Please don't flame me about the alcohol thing. I don't care whether they sell it or not and it doesn't keep me from visiting such as establishment even though I don't drink. I am just making a point that if the state thinks there is an issue with a law abiding citizen legally carrying concealed in that environment, then maybe it isn't a good environment for children.
"The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him,
but because he loves what is behind him."
- G.K. Chesterton [ 1874 - 1936 ]
We hadn't finished our meals and were not presented with a bill before we were asked to leave. "I'm going to have to ask you to leave immediately" was his exact wording I believe.
I didn't refuse anything.
I take issue with being pegged as a bad reflection of responsible gun carrying folks. I have to disagree with you there.
"Life is a sexually transmitted disease."... Think about it.
I think this whole issue stems from the Governor of VA vetoing the CCW law that would allow CCW in an establishment that sells alcohol. I'm sure a very small % would insist on OCing when they could legally CCW. I have also heard that most of the VSP, local PD, and Sheriff Offices in VA wish they had signed the law. It cuts down on the foolish 911 calls about a man with gun eating pizza.
About 4 months ago there were several threads pushing OC in mostly NO. VA. from the opencarry.org group. I hope that VA or any other state doesn't make OCing illegal, but I'm not willing to be that guy. I don't want a man with gun eating call to go out about me. I was always taught anonymity is my friend.
An extremely well written letter to the establishment.
Please do treat us to the response if there is one.
"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance." -Thomas Jefferson

GOOD Gun Control is being able to hit your target! -Myself
beautifully written. I am a writer myself, and have to say everything from the word choice to the tone was absolutely fantastic.
"A government is like fire, a handy servant, but a dangerous master." -- George Washington
Don't know about anywhere else, but in Oregon when a restaurant asks you to leave you're not legally obliged to pay anymore. Yes, that does include if your screaming kid is bothering other patrons.
Here, a store owner can ask you to leave for any reason other than a few protected categories (race, sex, etc). Guns included. But they're not "special" in the sense that it's any different from him asking you to leave because he doesn't like your shoes.
A very well written letter indeed.
I believe the one thing we all need to remember is that private property is just that, private property which is under the owners control. I am a staunch 2nd Amendment and CCW supporter, but I am also supportive of individual rights in regards to their own property.
A business owner can deny service for many reasons, and it is their right to do so. It's no biggie, you simply do not go back to that establishment if you do not care for their policies. Throughout life you will find those who support carrying a weapon and those who do not. Regardless of our beliefs, we have to respect the right of a property owner, including businesses. Their property, their rules.
If your a smoker and stepped inside a non smokers house with a lit cigarette and they asked you to extinguish it would you argue with them ?
Even back in the Wild West days they had restaurant's and saloons that did not allow open carry or had a " check your weapons at the door " policy.
I enjoy my freedoms and fought for them in the Marines, but I will be damned if someone will ever dictate to me policy that is to be followed while on my property. Either you follow my rules while on my property or leave.
The solution here is to vent your displeasure like you did in a respectable manner and then never return to that place. I myself will never grace their doorstep as I feel the manager handled the entire incident poorly. That and you never disgrace or screw with a fellow Marine. :)
Just my humble opinion.
Maybe its just me, but I would not want to go into a establishment that I would have to open carry, of course this is not a option in my state. I want as few people as possible knowing that I carry and do not even tell my closest friends, in my opinion you give up a lot of advantages by doing so.
Apparently, in the state of Virginia, restaurant "theft" is covered in Virginia Code § 18.2-188 - Defrauding hotels, motels, campgrounds, boardinghouses, etc. It also covers "Obtain[ing] food from a restaurant or other eating house"
It's a Class 5 felony if the value of defrauded goods is more that $200 and a Class 1 misdemeanor if the goods are less that $200.
The code clearly states that intent to defraud must be present in order for it to be an unlawful act. In the case of a patron being asked to leave the premises before he/she has finished his/her meal or been presented with a check, it would seem hard to prove intent wouldn't it?
A police officer may be compelled by the manager to arrest/ charge the patron for defrauding the restaurant. But when it got to court it would be rather hard to prove intent given the circumstances. Courts are a bit less grey than law enforcement so I'm not convinced any court would deem an act unlawful without "guilty mind" (mens rea).
I'm not a lawyer though so I could be wrong. I just read good ;)

Replacement sails - Hood''''s Vektran
May 2004 - We found a nice fix after doing much homework and talking to others who had recent sail changes. Posted details at the end of this thread...
I find my self with a dilemma as to which sail to replace first and with what type:
-- want to replace the main sail which is of indeterminate age;
-- but I''m beginning to think my best dacron jib is under sized at 112%.
1. Does anyone have any experience with Hood''s woven Vektran sails? Hood says performance is on a par with large laminate sails. Hood also claims to have never replaced one yet since they started shipping in 1992 (all still in service). Construction is woven, with low stretch Vectran threads buried for UV protection in Dacron? They are suggesting 7.7 oz material for main or jib on N41 (or 9 oz if straight Dacron). Hood uses 9 oz Vektan on the BT Global Challenge boats.
2. Whose sails/construction/cloth weight are other N41 owners using?
3. If you had to pick one of the two sails to replace, which would you do first?
4. Anyone shifted from a high cut yankee (clew 7'' off deck) to a lower cut sail of the similar size? What performance differential did you get?
Goals: club racing, durability, and manageable performance for family on roller furler. (Yeah, I know it''s heavily conflicted). Maybe put a new jib up for the bigger crew/lighter winds during summer racing, and put the 112% back up for winter. Boat is a Newport 41
