Solid win tonight!!I had to watch the game a couple hours late. Was at the hospital with my wife for false labor tonight. All good, taped the game!! I really enjoyed Bardo calling the game. Thinking we got 2 more years of Bertrand? Man, he's a stud!

Exactly. If we did not have Tyler Griffey, we might have two losses. Tyler doesn't show up huge in the box score or highlight reel, but he's an extension of the coaching staff on the court.

Team plays hard all the time. JoeB's performance reminded me of when Kenny Battle took over the Missouri game in St. Louis. We need to make free throws.

Ref were not the problem
I have a certain pet peeve about taking charges, as I think this is a cheap way of playing defense and only puts the control in the hands of the referee and takes away from offensive play. I can't fault the players all the time because I think this is actively coached throughout the NCAA. But, hey, that's just my take. |

This. Last year too much focus on standout performances (BP) with subsequent collapse. JG seems to be instilling a better TEAM approach. Felt that last year the team fell apart with a few feeling too much responsibility for the losses, and pushing too hard as a result. Seeing glimmers of more professional mindset .... we will do well if the kids buy in to the "learning" approach, as they seem to be. Did not see panic and forcing shots at the end of the game. Happy for the win and happy to see our kids smiling! |

The Johnny come lately group is simply out of luck. Whining on a message board doesn't help get you better seats . It's a combination of KASH and seniority. Where were the students, tonight and all season? Student floor seats were full. In the rest of the student sections there were a lot of empty dull grey seats watching the game. |

No doubt about it...I watched the game, but haven't had a chance to analyze the stats as of yet, but just from watching the game, it seemed like Abrams was solely responsible for like 8 turnovers in the 1st half alone.
I couldn't believe the recklessness with the dribble and passing that he displayed during the 1st half. |

Joe B is the best pro prospect on this team. BP3 will be a late first early second, but Joe is a first rounder after next year.
Bertrand reminds me of a more efficient DeMar DeRozan. Brandon reminds me of Rodney Stuckey |

It might be because we are winning but I enjoy the post-game interviews. Coach Henson was very good post-game and so is Coach Groce. From his comments he joys his players personally but he tries to separate the business of winning and getting better with personal feelings. I dont think he will have a dog house just perform and play nothing personal. That is all you can ask for as a player.

Well to crib from Tony Kornheiser, after hiring John Groce. Welcome to the land of unbridled optimism.
We may lose some games this year we should win if we die by the 3. We'll definitely win some games we shouldn't due to hot shooting. As long as we always have a chance to win or feel like we can win that a big step up in this first year. __________________ The ball is round. The game lasts forty minutes. This much is fact.

My horses was girth, sensitive to touch and generally unhappy despite a good diet, well fitting saddle and shiny coat. Egusin SLH changed him for the better in about 2 weeks and then after a month on that we switched to this product for maintenance. I have my old horse back without the costly drugs to treat ulcers.
My mare has had colic issues due to ulcers. This product was recommend to me by the head large animal vet at UC Davis Vet clinic. It seems to be doing the trick.

Gilroy wasn't always the Garlic Capital of the World. In fact, over the past 100 years, it has been dubbed the Tobacco Capital of the United States, the Dairy and Cheese Capital of California, the Prune Capital, the Hay and Grain Capital, and the Horse-Breeding Capital. Few people know this, or at least few people who have never been to the Gilroy Historical Museum know this. In a perhaps more useful vein, the museum also provides guides to walking tours of the downtown and the latest news about the ongoing saga to reopen the Gilroy Hot Springs. Find out just why China sends all of its garlic crop to Gilroy (because they don't have large-scale dehydrators, and Gilroy has the largest in the world) and which Gilroy native made history in 1911 (Bob Fowler, the first man to fly a plane at a speed of more than 100 miles per hour). The museum is open weekdays from 9am to 5pm. It's free, but reservations are required.
195 Fifth St., Gilroy (408/848-0470)
Conveniently ocated just before the long haul over Hecker Pass to Watsonville and points beyond is one of the nicest pit stops in Santa Clara County. Goldsmith Seeds Inc. offers spotless restrooms surrounded by rows of such floral beauties as the "maverick pink geranium" and the "ultra-lilac petunia" (yes, but do they have an "ultra-petunia lilac"?). Once nature's call has been answered, visitors can spend an hour on the free guided nature tour learning about hybrid flower development. There is even a small observation platform above the facilities for a panoramic view of flowers and the surrounding hillside.

If garlic is as good as 10 mothers, then Gilroy is the stinking-rose maternity ward. Town residents grow, eat and breathe garlic every time they step outside. More importantly, they sell garlic in every imaginable form. The frenzy peaks in late July with the Gilroy Garlic Festival, but the pungent party continues all year long in roadside produce shacks and specialty stores. Out-of-towners can get their garlic fix all at once at Garlic World, home of the world's largest garlic braid, not to mention garlic pâté, jellies, spreads, cheeses, barbecue marinades, chips, wines, olives, candies and, of course, ice cream (chocolate and vanilla).

Cowboys content with mediocre in keeping Garrett
NOV 21, 2013 10:36p ET
With the Cowboys sitting at 5-5, a half-game behind the Eagles in the quest for the NFC East title, Jerry Jones was asked whether head coach Jason Garrett would return for the 2014 season. Jones has been known to duck and dive similar questions, but he gave a very direct "yes" when pressed on the issue Thursday at Valley Ranch.
Perhaps he felt the pressure to steal a headline or two in the wake of the Rangers making a blockbuster trade to land first baseman Prince Fielder. Otherwise, there's no good reason to make some type of public commitment to Garrett as he prepares for the biggest game of the season…to this point.
"We're positioned to get in the playoffs," Jones told a group of reporters Thursday. "We see logically how to get in the playoffs. We have that, for all practical purposes, in our control. Now that's a pretty good spot to be in after 10 games. A lot of this story is to be played out, but it does not have a bearing on whether or not he will be our coach next year. It has no bearing on that."
If we take Jerry at his word, he's guaranteeing Garrett another season no matter how the season ends. There's no reason in the world to make this proclamation in November. It's not like having a vote of confidence from Jerry is going to inspire Garrett. Something more along the lines of, "I'll let you know Jason's job security in six weeks" would've been far more effective.
But Jones loves making folks feel comfortable. And the reality is that Garrett probably deserves the benefit of the doubt when you consider the hand he's been dealt by Jones. This is a man who scoffed at the idea of selecting a defensive tackle in the first round of last April's draft because Sharrif Floyd wasn't a "quick-twitch" player.
Jones is also the man who likely forced Garrett to turn playcalling duties over to Bill Callahan. That's gone so smoothly that some folks believe Garrett should've reclaimed those duties during the bye week. I had hoped that a blowout loss to the Saints might cause the Cowboys to make some fundamental changes. But Jerry's blind optimism doesn't permit those types of honest evaluations to take place.
"I'm disappointed that we don't have a better record, but [Garrett] has got us in position to win the division and has got a team here that I firmly believe has the ability to be one of the better-playing teams at the end," Jones said Thursday.
The only thing you could possibly base a statement like that on would be narrow losses to top AFC teams such as the Chiefs and Broncos. But since that 51-48 loss to the Broncos, the offense has gone into a funk. Jones was so proud that quarterback Tony Romo had kept pace with Peyton Manning in that game. But the Cowboys have somehow turned Romo into a cautious player who is constantly checking into quick outs to nondescript tight ends.
If you're going to invest $55 million guaranteed in one player, you might as well take him out for a spin every now and then. Romo's declining numbers are the biggest reason Garrett should've reclaimed playcalling duties.
But now that he's been promised another season as head coach, maybe Garrett's in no hurry to make a radical change. As Jerry said, these last six games don't have any bearing on his head coach's future.
What a benevolent man.

Published Version (English) PDF - Registered users only 1MB View at publisher |
β-Catenin (Armadillo in Drosophila) is a multitasking and evolutionary conserved molecule that in metazoans exerts a crucial role in a multitude of developmental and homeostatic processes. More specifically, β-catenin is an integral structural component of cadherin-based adherens junctions, and the key nuclear effector of canonical Wnt signalling in the nucleus. Imbalance in the structural and signalling properties of β-catenin often results in disease and deregulated growth connected to cancer and metastasis. Intense research into the life of β-catenin has revealed a complex picture. Here, we try to capture the state of the art: we try to summarize and make some sense of the processes that regulate β-catenin, as well as the plethora of β-catenin binding partners. One focus will be the interaction of β-catenin with different transcription factors and the potential implications of these interactions for direct cross-talk between β-catenin and non-Wnt signalling pathways.

• This building system was implemented in a housing development project in El Salvador, Central America, initiated by GATE and conducted by the Institute for Tropical Building, Starnberg, Federal Republic of Germany, headed by Dr.Ing. Georg Lippsmeier.
• The aim was to improve the earthquake resistance of traditional adobe brick houses, by self-help methods and with little additional costs.
• The improvements were: strengthening of the site-produced mud bricks by adding lime; providing reinforced concrete foundations and ring beams; rigid connection between roof and supporting walls.

Released: May 01st, 1986
Running Time: 90
Director: Hal Freeman
Company: Hollywood Video
Peter North, Tom Byron, Tany Fox, Kari Foxx, John Simmons, Penny Morgan, Trinity Loren, Ron Jeremy
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Feature
A Little Romance has very little romance but lots of sex performed by good-looking people. It is standard fare with oral sex, close-ups, regulation oohs and aahs, soupy synthesizer music, dull dialogue and a mediocre story. This happy couple is parted by a magazine test that says their love is based on lust. The unhappy lady (Kari Foxx) cries to the two girls she works with (Penny Morgan and Tanya Fox). Tanya can hardly wait to get her hands on the now-free boyfriend (Tom Byron) while Kari is consoled by the boss (Ron Jeremy). The two finally kiss and make up.
Some very hot scenes include first, the one between Trinity Loren (great breasts) and John Simmons (good-looking, new stud) where he seems to love big jugs and she seems to love what he does to them and the rest of her. The second is the final scene between the reunited couple who have had their romance rekindled by their outside experiences. They relate with tenderness and passion.
The photography is good, graphic and provides a great many close-ups, but the color changes here and there and the sound is sometimes a bit hollow. All in all, it is just OK.

Hungry cluttered with Stress, Economic guns and butter your bread
from ForestPunk – L.A Skylights Lyrics on Genius
He is obviously not in a good spot, hungry and stressed. "Guns and Butter" is (quick economic lesson):The classic economic example of the production possibility curve, which demonstrates the idea of opportunity cost. In a theoretical economy with only two goods, a choice must be made between how much of each good to produce. As an economy produces more guns (military spending) it must reduce its production of butter (food), and vice versa.So…..
He is saying here he has to make a decision of what to make and what to produce for himself so him and his family can eat.

May Podcast: A Conversion Story for Shavuot
Tomorrow starts the festival of Shavuot, a time of spiritual liberation that commemorates the ancient Israelites receiving the Torah at Mount Sinai. The holiday is also linked to the story of Ruth, a Moabite woman, and her relationship with her Israelite mother-in-law, Naomi. As recounted in the Book of Ruth, traditionally read on Shavuot, after Naomi and her daughters-in-law Ruth and Orpah all become widows, Naomi urges the two younger women to leave her and find new husbands. Orpah does as Naomi suggests but Ruth refuses, telling her: "wherever you go I will go, wherever you lodge I will lodge; your people shall be my people and your God shall be my God." (Ruth 1:16). Jewish tradition reads this moment as Ruth's acceptance of Judaism. Ruth is known as the first convert, and her story has come to serve as a source book and inspiration for conversion.
So, in keeping with the themes of the Jewish calendar, we bring you a conversion story as our podcast of the month. It's the story of Arva Gray, a Mormon who converted to Judaism in the 1950s and became a leader in the Seattle Jewish community. In listening to Gray's story, I'm struck by two things: the challenge of transcending the "insider" / "outsider" dynamics of Jewish community, and figuring out what it means to feel culturally and spiritually at home. Listen to Gray recount her Jewish journey in the kitchen, the "Sephardic Heights," and in positions of Jewish leadership.

NEW YORK (AP) - A Brooklyn landlord has engaged in a pattern of ill-treatment to force out minority renters, even failing to cash rent checks in hopes of later evicting them for nonpayment, tenants said Tuesday after filing a federal discrimination lawsuit.
Jean Wilkinson said the landlord has ignored requests to fix her water - the only source of hot water in her apartment for the last five days has been the stove, she said - as part of a "game plan" to get more affluent clientele.
The tenants filed a federal discrimination lawsuit late Monday against Homewood Gardens Estates and its principal owner, Yeshaya Wasserman, alleging a pattern of harassment "almost from the day" he purchased the complex in 2009. They are seeking an order stopping the alleged harassment and monetary damages.
Tenant Marquetta Bell said the plaintiffs - 11 current or former tenants and two community groups - are serving notice: "We will no longer stand for this discrimination."
Attorneys for the tenants said the complex in the Prospect Lefferts Garden neighborhood failed to complete repairs and changed locks without providing them with keys.
When the complex's maintenance staff did make repairs, the shoddy work created other problems including mold, leaky windows and floors so worn in some places tenants could see into the basement below, the attorneys said.
A woman who answered the phone at Homewood Gardens said Wasserman would not be back in the office to respond to questions about the lawsuit until Wednesday. No one else was available to answer questions, she said.
City officials reported dozens of complaints about the complex since Wasserman took ownership.
Last October, the state's Tenant Protection Unit served a subpoena on Wasserman for documents from Homewood Gardens and seven other properties. The unit, according to the governor's office, was investigating "a pattern of abusive behavior and flagrant violations of rent laws."
Pavita Krishnaswamy, an attorney for the tenants, said Wasserman is targeting them because they are black. She said 20 of the 52 rent-stabilized apartments in the complex have been vacated since he took ownership and, according to the lawsuit, 14 of the 15 new tenants are white or Asian.
She said the lone black tenant who moved in after Wasserman bought the complex faced a 13.9 percent rent increase while rent for tenants of other races went up less than 3 percent.
Wilkinson, who has lived at the complex for 14 years, said once she figured out the landlord had not cashed her rent checks he offered her $15,000 to leave.
"I told him to take a walk," Wilkinson said. "If you really want me to leave, take me to court."

Derby Day
8 comments:
Mr McIntyre, the race was a quagmire, but Calvin Borel *did* win his third Derby in four years. And, as a native Louisianan transplanted to his wife's Kentucky, it was worth watching a lackluster race to hear his mellifluous Cajun cadences during the victory interview.
Thank you for smacking Anonymous for all of us; the idea of a "virgin" julep is one that for his/her safety's sake should only be mooted anonymously.
I much enjoy your blog. I hope your return to employment (congratulations!) won't mean the end of it!

JOEL FINSEL StarChefs Sylk Cream Liqueur Mixologist Astral Plane | Philadelphia, PA
Biography Joel Finsel was practically raised in a bar. Growing up, his parents owned and ran a pub in the Poconos. Finsel was often found spending much of his afterschool time on barstools, playing video games. The bar's energetic vibe left a strong impression on him, and today, the bar scene at Astral Plane continues to fuel Finsel with creative energy.
At age 18, as soon as he turned of legal serving age, Finsel enrolled in a bartending course during his college winter recess. Here, Finsel created cocktails with mock ingredients, learned bar tricks and random useless bar trivia, such as how the Tanqueray bottle takes its shape from an English fire hydrant. Shortly thereafter, he was offered a bartending job at the Banker's Club, a local converted bank-turned nightclub in his hometown. Finsel worked there for the next five years and was eventually promoted to bar manager.
After graduating from Kutztown University last December and having had enough of small town life, Finsel moved to Philadelphia. Six months later, when Astral Plane's bartender of 27 years left the establishment, owner Reed Apaghian offered Finsel the job. Though Finsel had some tough shoes to fill, he fit right in with the bar's laid-back atmosphere and personable clientele. Apaghian and Finsel have a strong mutual respect, and Finsel relishes the opportunity to experiment with cocktails behind the bar.
With interesting people frequently adorning his bar stools, making conversation and giving him feedback on his latest concoctions, Finsel has found the perfect venue to showcase his talents and have fun. When not at Astral Plane, Finsel is writing and publishing a science-fiction/adventure book and spending time with his fiancé, Jessica and their little black dog.

▼The 15 Blueprints▼
In Love & Service
Translation is a choice, and your passion will dictate your performance.
Always remember: It's not about you. Practice understanding. Never assume.
Translation is a problem-solving, (client) service-oriented business. Even when performed for free.
A Strong Inclination towards Honesty is paramount. (Don't add, subtract, multiply or divide).
A Strong Inclination to Consistency is paramount.
A Strong Inclination towards Accuracy, Integrity, Maturity and the development of great personality is paramount.
Translation is NOT for overly emotional, unstable, erratic or highly irritable people.
The pressures & rigors of thinking in two or more languages simultaneously require a calm but confident personality.
Translation is not for quitters. 'Staying power' and 'relationship management' will be your reputation barometer.
Translation, like Banking and Investing is a trust-based business. Be professional at all times.
Confidentiality is key. Gossipers or vindictive personality types make bad translators.
Development of an empathic but impartial spirit is paramount. Do not play the role of "cultural advisor" unless it is expressly required of you.
Adaptiveness will teach you how to adjust to different personality types and their requirements.
Great translators are culturally & intellectually curious, initiative-seizing; out-of-box thinkers who are also meticulous. Remember: they don't just 'know'. They get things done.
Great translators appreciate that their rewards even in dollars and career sense naturally follow the foregoing.

Sitting on the picturesque western shores of Lake Izabal, El Estor is a small, amicable town. Supposedly, its name derives from the English word "store," since back in the day British pirates sailing up the Río Dulce would come across the lake and stop there to buy supplies. The small town's economy used to center around a nickel mine that was active during the 1970s. There has recently been a push by the Guatemalan government to reopen the mine in an effort to export minerals. However, this has been some cause for controversy, since expanding the mine would result in the displacement of several Mayan village, as well as in the destruction of the area's natural beauty.
Despite the debate over the mine, El Estor mostly gets by on tourism today. It touts itself as being a good destination for ecotourism, serving as a jumping-off point for forays into the nearby El Boquerón canyon and the beautiful Bocas del Polichic Wildlife Refuge. Although the town is still working on developing hotels, restaurants and other tourist amenities, it is a largely tranquil place that is worth a visit.
Other places nearby El Estor: Rio Dulce, Zacapa, Quiriguá, El Castillo De San Felipe, Livingston, Chiquimula, Río Hondo, Estanzuela, Fronteras/El Relleno (Rio Dulce) and Mariscos.

Black Friday Sentencing Continues, Rubin Gets Three Years
- 08/09/2012By Debra SaundersGoogleIra Rubin, one of the eleven men accused by the US government in the Black Friday indictment, was sentenced to three years in prison this week for his role as a payment processor. Presiding Judge Lewis Kaplan also ruled that Rubin must relinquish five million dollars in fines.
During sentencing Judge Kaplan commented to Rubin, "You are an unreformed conman and fraudster." The Judge called Rubin's involvement a "brazen" defiance of United States law. He concluded, "A significant sentence is necessary to protect the community."
Earlier in 2012, Rubin submitted a guilty plea for processing billions in poker profits from some of the best online casinos, including PokerStars, Absolute Poker and Full Tilt Poker.
Initially, US Prosecutors and Rubin's lawyers discussed an 18-24 month jail sentence, however, Judge Lewis Kaplan overruled this as he stated that the crime deserved a harsher punishment. Judge Kaplan softened this by expressing his belief that Rubin would receive credit for nine months already spent in jail and the possibility of release after 31 months.
Under the terms of the sentence, once Rubin is released, he will be prohibited from seeking employment in any position that relates to the handling of money or profits.
Earlier in the month, others involved in the Black Friday case also received sentences, including Absolute Poker's Brent Beckley.

The Cool Wall for iPad
Introducing the Cool Wall for iPad app, an Apple Staff Pick in the US store.
Using over 350 cars, you can place the cars where you think they should be on the Cool Wall and find out in an audio sound bite if the presenters think you've got it right. You can create your own Cool Walls, as well rearrange the show Cool Wall itself. If your favourite car's missing, you can even add it into the mix. Just take a photo, input the name and stats and place it on your wall.
All the images of the cars are complete with stats. Be warned though, the car stats are highly suitable as slightly dodgy pub facts, but use sparingly when you need to win an argument. Where there was more than one model, we simply picked our favourite. For the most accurate stats, the car reviews section of www.topgear.com/uk/car-reviews is still the place to go.
What the app includes:
- Over 350 cars, with image and stats
- Personal Cool Wall with drag and drop feature, so you can arrange the cars where you think they should be
- Audio sound bite from the presenters to tell you whether you've put the car in the "right" category
- Ability to load the full wall from the show to place the cars where you think they should be
- If your favourite car's missing, there's the ability to add it in
Some new user reviews from the Cool Wall iPhone app:
***** Great:
"Great app for any Top Gear fan"
***** Brilliant:
Great app.

Classic Galapagos Photo Adventure
Simply the Best Galapagos Photography Tour Available, for Intimate, Unhurried Encounters with Wildlife
Six hundred miles off the coast of Ecuador, surrounded by open ocean, a volcanic archipelago straddles the equator. The Galapagos Islands, forged of black lava and named for the giant tortoises that are among its most noted inhabitants, are like no place else in the world. Home to a profuse array of wildlife, the islands offer an immersion in nature that feels primeval, where lizards and penguins and bluefooted boobies share the beaches with us, unconcerned by our presence. Herman Melville called the Galapagos "Las Encantadas," or the Enchanted Isles, an apt moniker for a realm that remains otherworldly, even today. Our ship-based adventure aboard the private yacht Letty offers unparalleled opportunities for some of the most amazing wildlife photography on the planet!
Trip Highlights
- Photograph the prolific wildlife of the Galapagos as you cruise between the islands on an intimate, well-appointed yacht
- Swim and snorkel with sea lions, turtles and penguins, sunbathe with iguanas, and watch for whales and dolphins off our ship's bow
- Learn about scientists' conservation work at Charles Darwin Research Station and photograph giant tortoises at the tortoise-breeding center
Choose the BEST Galapagos Photography Trip!
For nature photographers, capturing close-up images of wildlife is the ultimate travel photography experience. And there's no better place to get amazing full-frame shots of unique and friendly animals than in the Galapagos Islands. As a company focused solely on nature travel, we're confident in our claim that we run the best photography tours in the islands. While many tour companies host large groups, making personal time with the animals nearly impossible, or pawn travelers off onto local travel agents who in turn pass them on to local ship owners, our photo tours are intimate, highly personalized and carefully managed adventures designed to create a superlative nature photography experience. Just what makes our Galapagos photo tours better?
- Small Groups for the Best Wildlife Encounters
With nature travel, small groups are a must, and that mandate is even more important for a photography-specific adventure. Our privately chartered ship accommodates a maximum of 20 guests who are accompanied by two fully licensed NHA Galapagos Expedition Leaders as well as a professional NHA Photography Expedition Leader. When we go ashore, we divide up so that you'll be exploring and taking photos with a small group that's typically comprised of just six to nine other travelers -- the best guide-to-guest ratio in the islands! - With Private Ships, Operations are Within Our Control
It's the little things that make a good trip great—the only way we can ensure that those little things are taken care of effectively and professionally is for us to look after them ourselves. That's why we retain control over our Galapagos operations, looking after our guests' adventures from beginning to end. We personally arrange every component of our Galapagos trips, from hiring the best guides and chartering first-class ships to meeting you on arrival in Ecuador and accompanying you to the airport in Quito for your homeward flight. - Uncrowded Snorkeling Experiences
Snorkeling is a big component of any Galapagos trip, whether you are a photographer or not. With colonies of inquisitive sea lions, numerous green sea turtles and an array of colorful tropical fish, the Galapagos is an underwater kaleidoscope of exciting nature encounters. That's why we insist on keeping our snorkeling groups small, so that your once-in-a-lifetime experience of Galapagos marine life is not tainted by too many other snorkelers. We're here for the close encounters with the animals, not with other travelers. - The Most Diverse Galapagos Itinerary for Photography
Ours is an exclusive itinerary, providing photo opportunities unavailable to others! As WWF's travel partner, we are privileged to work in tandem with their team of expert scientists to develop the best wildlife-focused itinerary possible. Unlike most vessels that travel only to the south or central islands, we also visit Genovesa in the far north (where we'll see rare red-footed boobies) and Fernandina in the west, the Galapagos' most active volcano and prime nesting site for flightless cormorants. We sail to these more distant islands at night, maximizing your time ashore for photography during the day. We also include an exclusive optional overnight at our safari-style camp in the Santa Cruz highlands, where wild giant tortoises roam freely in close proximity! - Photograph More of Ecuador with our Hacienda Stay in the Andean Highlands
Ecuador, though small in size, is one of the world's most geographically and culturally diverse countries. As a complement to your Galapagos immersion, we include a visit to the Andean highlands with a two-night stay at an authentic colonial hacienda, set amidst lavish gardens, near the scenic mountain town of Otavalo. From here, we'll visit a local indigenous village or two for a rich tableau of Ecuadorian culture that's distinctly different from what you'll encounter in the islands. And for those who don't want to miss Quito's historic highlights, we can arrange an optional Quito city tour before or after your trip—inquire with an Adventure Specialist for details. - NHA Naturalist Expedition Leaders, Plus a Dedicated Photographer Guide!
Natural Habitat is known worldwide for employing the finest naturalists on the planet. In the Galapagos, our Expedition Leaders have collectively undergone more training than any other company's guides, with an average of more than 15 years' guiding experience among them. They receive additional resources from WWF's renowned scientists to further enhance their interpretation -- an advantage exclusive to our guests. Our photography adventures are also accompanied by a third NHA Expedition Leader who is both a professional photographer and photography instructor. That's quite a crew of guides!

Absalom, Absalom!
Absalom, Absalom! tells the story of Thomas Sutpen, the enigmatic stranger who came to Jefferson township in the early 1830s. With a French architect and a band of wild Haitians, he wrung a fabulous plantation out of the muddy bottoms of the north Mississippi wilderness.
Sutpen was a man, Faulker said, "who wanted sons and the sons destroyed him." His tragedy left its impress not only on his contemporaries but also on men who came after, men like Quentin Compson, haunted even into the 20th century by Sutpen's legacy of ruthlessness and singleminded disregard for the human community.
"For range of effect, philosophical weight, originality of style, variety of characterization, humor, and tragic intensity, [Faulkner's works] are without equal in our time and country." —Robert Penn Warren
"He is the greatest artist the South has produced. . . . Indeed, through his many novels and short stories, Faulkner fights out the moral problem which was repressed after the nineteenth century [yet] for all his concern with the South, Faulkner was actually seeking out the nature of man. Thus we must turn to him for that continuity of moral purpose which made for greatness of our classics." —Ralph Ellison

Pratt ethanol plant reopens under new partnership
An ethanol plant in Pratt shuttered for five years has reopened under the ownership of Pratt Energy, a partnership between Scoular Co. and Pratt Biofuel Investors, according to the company.
Pratt Energy operates the plant and markets the ethanol, while Scoular buys the grain from farmers and sells the byproduct of production, the distillers grain, usually for livestock feed.
Scoular bought the closed 55 million-gallon plant and adjoining 1.8 million-bushel grain facility in 2011 from Gateway Plant, largely for the grain handling facility. In December, Scoular sold part interest in the property to veteran operators Pratt Biofuel Investors.
The president of Pratt Energy is Lyle Schlyer, who is also president of Calgren Renewable Fuels, which owns and operates a nearly identical plant in Pixley, Calif.
Pratt Biofuel Investors renovated and operates the plant. The plant began grinding corn and producing ethanol in September. Jerry Schroeder, formerly with Calgren and now with Pratt Energy, manages the plant's operations.
The majority of the anticipated 20 million bushels a year of corn and grain sorghum for the plant will come from within 75 miles of Pratt, said Scott Anderson, Pratt Energy's ethanol marketing manager. Most of the ethanol will be shipped for use in Wichita, Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
There is some economic development from the reopening. The renovation work was done primarily with local subcontractors and the company hired 35 permanent workers at the plant, Anderson said. Additionally, the plant will generate significant truck and train traffic.

I love this shoe! Very comfortable and cute. I thought it might be a little stodgy, but it's actually adorable and works well with jeans for a casual night out or with a work outfit. Very pleased!

The DVF Bion, my size 7½, and I have medium width feet and like arch support. These shoes have some cushioning, which was a welcome surprise, and a little bit of arch support. The toe area has less material than I ideally like, so they do not feel totally secure. But they are much like ballet slippers, and fairly comfortable.

Magellan GinIn 1519, five ships led by Ferdinand de Magellan set out to circumnavigate the world and explore the spice islands. Three years later, only the ship Victoria returned to Spain, with 18 people and several barrels of cloves. Sadly, Magellan, who died in battle during the voyage, never saw the results of his spice discoveries. Those spices inspired the creation of Gin as we now know it, and it is to cloves in particular, that Magellan Gin owes its unrivaled taste. Cloves are a unique botanical to Magellan Gin. Magellan Gin is indeed a blue color. It is bottled in a clear glass so you can admire the spirit inspired by Magellans travels between the blue sky and deep blue sea.

Understanding energy fluxes within and between floodplain water bodies, and between rivers and their floodplains is essential for comprehending the dynamics of modern, altered river systems. Floodplain aquatic invertebrates may move between habitats deliberately (through emergence and dispersal) or through passive transport during flooding. This movement may represent a significant flux of energy and an essential food web subsidy. I assessed the usefulness of the stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen (D and 18O respectively) for identifying the origins and movements of macroinvertebrates in Mississippi River floodplain water bodies. I sampled water and invertebrates from the Mississippi River, intermittent and permanent floodplain wetlands, and tributaries during 2007 and 2008. Results showed consistent relationships between δD and δ18O signatures in invertebrate tissues and their home water bodies. I also investigated whether δD and δ18O could be used as a multivariate "fingerprint" to trace a captured invertebrate back to its environment of origin. Results showed that δD can be a useful tracer of the movement of floodplain invertebrates in some cases, although δ18O is likely not suitable for that purpose.

Pretty Little Liars Burning Question: Is Ali Being Manipulative or Sincere?
Alison has always been one of the most complex characters on Pretty Little Liars, and now that we know she's alive she's even harder to fully understand. We finally got to see her meet with Emily in Season 4, Episode 16 ("Close Encounters"), but that encounter only left us with more questions. Emily met with Ali after Ali asked her, through Shana, to meet her alone. In that meeting, Ali played the part of the genuinely remorseful friend. She explained that she felt terrible about the pain she'd caused Emily, and hinted that she couldn't trust the other Liars, especially Aria and Spencer. She also said she doesn't know who "A" is, and she's scared. Once she realized Spencer was listening in on the convo, she made a swift escape. The confrontation between Emily and Spencer after that was one of the most compelling scenes the show has ever produced. We could understand both Liars' points of view, but in the end only one of them can be right. So, what's the truth — is Ali really just a scared girl on the run, or is she still playing games with her "friends"? We can see arguments in either direction. She's genuine: For one thing, if Ali is acting, she's very good at it, though that wouldn't come as much of a surprise. That said, there is plenty of reason to believe that Ali's fear and remorse is genuine. Clearly someone was after her, and she has been in hiding. That's the kind of experience that could cause a girl like Ali to change her ways — and we can see why it would make her so paranoid that she'd even distrust some of the Liars. She's still manipulating the girls: That said, this situation seems custom made to mess with the Liars' friendship, and for a girl who claims to want help, Ali has been very resistant to giving the Liars any actual information to work with. Maybe Ali's aims aren't exactly what she claims. Plus, we find it very interesting that she reached out to Emily just a few episodes after Emily came to the realization that Ali wasn't a good friend after all. Is singling Em out as special Ali's way of trying to get her back under her influence?

Her growing attraction to Amish-raised Jake Zook further complicates her life. His resentment toward her is puzzling after all, she helped save his life. Why will he not allow her to share that life now?
Readers who love an Amish setting, mystery, and romance will be turning the pages until the satisfying conclusion.

I've been using original 3 blade venus razors for years.So i decided to give this razor a try as i thought this one maybe better than the original one.my theory was : extra blades = extra close shaving so i could save at least one day without shaving .but i was wrong.it didn't help to hairs growing back slower . in fact i get stubble quicker than usual. I can't believe how 5 blade razor can leave so much stubble.5 blade is too much for my skin btw. it didn't give me nasty cuts or nicks but gave me razor rash and itchy feeling.It is also ridiculously pricey.i would never buy again.i'll stick to my old and trusted originals,

Once you try these all other razors pale in comparison. These razors give me the closet shave I've ever had. Every time I try another razor to save money I come back to these. Incredible!!

Skin: Oily, Fair, Cool

My daughter told me about this and I thought I'd give it a try considering I shave daily or almost daily and have never been that impressed with any razor.
well I am blown away by the smoothness of this razor.
It glides over the skin and it is like you have the skin of a baby afterwards.
I will never buy another razor..the selection of razors can be overwhelming in the store...even when viewing what you think is the same company or just the name Venus. I almost
picked up the wrong one but when I remembered to look for the words "5 blades" , I easily found the right one.
I can't recommend this razor enough.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium
Eyes: Green
This is the best of all of the Venus razors. It is also, by far, the most comfortable razor to use as far as the way it fits in my hand. As much as I do love this razor...very close shave, no irritation, etc...the last box of cartridges I purchased must have been defective. I've used this razor for years and normally one cartridge gives me three to four weeks of use, but three of the four cartridges in the new package came apart after just one use. The turquoise bit around the blade separated and created a gap between my skin and the blade, so it left me stubbly. Gillette did send me a voucher for a free box, which I used and got the same ones as they have always been my favorite. I hope the faulty box was just a fluke because I want to continue using them, but at $18.00 for a box of four, if it happens again I won't buy any more.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Combination, Fair, Warm
Hair: Brown, Curly, Fine
Eyes: Hazel
These razors would be fine for getting the job done, except for the HORRIBLE, itchy bumps they gave me. I think it must be an allergic reaction to the moisturizing strips, which I have never experienced with any other product before. I experienced insanely itchy, red bumps on my legs and underarms which I finally determined was due to these razors. Will NOT be repurchasing.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Acne-prone, Fair, Not Sure

It was only $6.98 at Walmart so I didn't pass it up. I'm glad I bought it! Gives me a very clean shave with no bumps, cuts, nothing! I use the sensitive ones that claim to have a touch of Aloe. Adore them!

This is the best razor on the market. I have always used the gillette Mach 3 turbo and the Gillette Fusion proglide razors in the past. I discovered the Mach 3 Turbo when I was married to my Marine exhusband. His face always felt nice and smooth when he shaved. So I gave it a try and fell in love with the close shave. Then changed to the fusion proglide when that came out. I didn't think anything could top the proglide razor. Well I was wrong. I saw the Venus Snap razor with the embrace head and got it for my gym bag. I used it at the gym one day and was blown away at the super close, bump-free shave! I would normally get ingrown hairs on the sides of my calves. Not any more! This razor has been giving me super close, bump-free shave with no ingrown hairs! This razor is my holy grail razor.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Normal, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Brown, Other, Other

In my opinion, the best of the Venus razors.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other

I honestly have to say, this is an AWESOME razor! It glides well, it's smooth, and not to mention it looks great! I think that this is the best one on the market so I definitely recommend it to everyone!!

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Michele Bachmann has exhorted Christian students at Liberty University in Virginia to "not settle" for easy personal and political choices in life.
During a half-hour address to some 10,000 students, she briefly tied a message mostly about personal values and responsibility to an appeal to reject President Barack Obama's agenda, including his health care reforms.
She made no mention of her GOP primary rivals in a talk laced with Scripture that took on the tone of a sermon.
Badly trailing front-runners Rick Perry and Mitt Romney and struggling in national polls, Bachmann sought a breakout moment Wednesday with her base of support - Christian conservatives.
Liberty's chancellor, Jerry Falwell Jr., said Bachmann won a recent student straw poll over the GOP field, largely because of her evangelical roots.

Salah, Khaled (2006) An Analytic Approach for Deploying Desktop Videoconferencing. IEE Proceedings - Communications, 153 (3). pp. 434-444.
| PDF (An Analytic Approach for Deploying Desktop Videoconferencing) 305Kb |
The deployment of desktop videoconferencing, also known as Video and Voice over IP (VVoIP), over existing IP networks is gaining popularity these days. Such a deployment has become a major and challenging task for data network researchers and designers. This paper presents an analytic approach for deploying videoconferencing. The approach utilizes queueing network analysis and investigates two key performance bounds for videoconferencing: delay and bandwidth. The approach can be used to assess the support and readiness of an existing IP network. Prior to the purchase and deployment of desktop videoconferencing equipment, the approach predicts the number of videoconferencing sessions or calls that can be sustained by an existing network while satisfying QoS requirements of all network services and leaving adequate capacity for future growth. As a case study, we apply our approach to a typical network of a small enterprise. In addition, we use OPNET network simulator to verify and validate our analysis. Results obtained from analysis and simulation are in line and give a close match.

(AP) SAN ANTONIO - Tony Parker and Gary Neal each scored 22 points, and the San Antonio Spurs had a season-high 53 rebounds in a 110-99 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night.
Tim Duncan added 17 points and 10 rebounds for San Antonio (15-4). Tiago Splitter had 15 points, Manu Ginobili scored 11 and Matt Bonner had a season-high 12 rebounds.
Monta Ellis had 21 points and 11 assists for Milwaukee (8-9). Brandon Jennings added 14 points and Ersan Ilyasova scored all of his 17 points in the first half.
San Antonio outrebounded Milwaukee 53-36, including a 28-17 advantage in the second half.
The Spurs went on a 36-15 run bridging the final two quarters to pull away from the Bucks.
San Antonio closed the third on a 12-6 spurt fueled by 3-pointers from Bonner, Ginobili and Nando De Colo. A defensive goaltending call against Larry Sanders on a layup by De Colo gave the Spurs a 78-76 lead, their first since late in the first half.
The Spurs opened the game by missing their first 11 attempts before Parker banked in a runner with eight minutes left in the opening quarter. The Spurs offset that poor shooting with 11 rebounds.
Ilyasova scored eight straight points for the Bucks in a two-minute span late in the first quarter, besting his season average of 6.9.
Every active Spurs player with the exception of James Anderson scored for San Antonio, which needed the balanced scoring with Danny Green, Stephen Jackson, Kawhi Leonard and Patty Mills all sitting out with injuries.
Notes: San Antonio recalled G Cory Joseph and G De Colo after assigning both to the team's NBDL team in Austin to get some playing time. De Colo was assigned to the Toros on Sunday, scored 14 points in 39 minutes that night and was recalled Monday. . San Antonio hosts Houston on Friday before opening a four-game road trip Saturday in Charlotte. The Spurs have three road trips of at least four games in the first 45 days of their season. Their nine road wins are the most by any team in the NBA this season. Oklahoma City is second with six.

Halloween will arrive early in National City. The National City Fire Fighters Association Local 2744 and the city of National City will host the fourth annual Tower of Terror Haunted House. "It was an idea from one of the firefighters and it's a way for kids to celebrate Halloween," said firefighter Jay Stiles, 33. "It's a free haunted house with candy and costume contests." The haunted house will be located in the first level of the drill tower at National City Fire Station 34 where firefighters will be scaring individuals through torture chambers and caves for those who decide to enter. "Inside the tower it's fairly scary, it's more for the pre-teens and teens rather than the little kids," said Stiles. National City's Community Services Department will host a costume contest throughout the event with contestants being announced every half hour with prizes for each winner. "The event will be similar to previous years, it seemed as it has worked really well. The decorations will be different, but as far as the overall event, it will be very similar," said Stiles. Also featured at the event will be static displays and a community education trailer. "The static displays are displays of the equipment we use as firefighters and the education trailer teaches kids what to do in the event of a fire," said Stiles. The Tower of Terror Haunted House will be open from 5 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 29, at 343 East 16th St.
