At 5:15 p.m. on July 30, Ryder jumped from a Sea Ray vessel while it was under way on Stony Creek. NRP, Anne Arundel Fire and Rescue, the U.S. Coast Guard, Maryland State Police Aviation and a Baltimore City fire boat searched for Ryder until nightfall. NRP and Anne Arundel units resumed the search on July 31 with side scan sonar and divers. Ryders body was recovered at 12:30 p.m.
August 1, 2011 |
Contact: Sgt. A.A. Windemuth |

"They want to protect their business model and that's natural," says Ijad Madisch, CEO of ResearchGate, a social network for scientists that allows them to publish their research. "The problem is that scientists still sign contracts with publishers. There are alternatives and I'm convinced soon scientists will fully embrace them." Madisch, a former medical scientist, had the idea to build a network of his profession, but there was a problem. "My supervisor told me that researchers won't change their ways and that I needed at least a dozen Nobel laureates to join before anybody else would sign up." With friends Sören Hofmayer and Horst Fickenscher, Madisch founded ResearchGate in 2008. Today it's used by over four million researchers (including 30 Nobel laureates). "We want scientists not only to publish their paper, but the original data, the code, the protocol and even what went wrong," Madisch says. "We're changing the way scientists think and do research." It's a big ambition with influential backers: last June, Bill Gates led a $35million investment in the startup.6Wunderkinder Brunnen Strasse 141, 10115 Berlin 6Wunderkinder's task management app, Wunderlist, claims six million users. The startup announced last December a $19m series B funding round from Sequoia Capital, the first investment of the Californian VC fund in Germany. Auctionata Kurfürstendamm 212, D-10719 Berlin Last year this live auction website made waves when it sold the Egon Schiele painting Reclining Woman for $2.4 million. It has now sold over 10,000 items and has raised $193.8m in investment. Small Improvements Exerzierstrasse 24, 13357 Berlin Pinterest, Atlassian, Quiksilver and Coursera are among the 230 customers of Small Improvement's feedback system for managers and employees. Bootstrapped and with a team of 12 (with representatives in Toronto, New York, San Francisco and Sydney), Small Improvements reported €280 million in revenue last year. EyeEm Kohlfurter Strasse 41/43, 10999 Berlin Over ten million users share photos on EyeEm, which now has a facility, EyeEm Marketplace, allowing them to sell their images - with EyeEm getting a 50 per cent cut. Users can also benefit from EyeEm's partnership with Getty Images, which licenses photos on iStock. In April the startup, cofounded by Lorenz Aschoff, hired Markus Spierring, Flickr's former head of product. GetYourGuide Erich Weinert Strasse 145, 10439 Berlin In April 2014, the activity-booking startup GetYourGuide acquired competitor Gidsy, another Berlin-based startup that had attracted investors such as Ashton Kutcher, Amazon CTO Werner Vogels and SoundCloud CEO Alexander Ljung. Its expansion was again boosted last January by a $4.5 million investment (taking total funding to $20.5 million) led by former Booking.com CEO, Kees Koolen. Onefootball Greifswalder Strasse 212, D-10405 Berlin Onefootball covers 100 international football leagues live, provides breaking news and transfer gossip, and has 14 million users in over 200 countries. It recently partnered with talkSPORT, an official broadcaster of the Premier League and the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Sociomantic Paul-Lincke-Ufer 39/40, 10999 Berlin This adtech startup was founded in 2009 by Thomas Nicolai, Lars Kirchhoff and Thomas Brandhoff, using a technology developed during their PhD. In 2012, they hired ex-Googler Jason Kelly as CEO. By 2013, it was generating hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, with clients such as Rakuten and Zalando. It was bought by Dunnhumby in April for over $100 million. Clue Bethaniendamm 19, 10997 Berlin Clue adds female fertility to the quantified-self movement by allowing women to track their monthly fertile cycle. Cofounded by Ida Tin and Hans Raffauf, the app is designed by Mike LaVigne, a former creative director at Frog Design. The Clue team are currently working on hardware.Delivery Hero Mohrenstrasse 60, 10117 Berlin Delivery Hero distributed over eight million meals last year. Not bad for a food delivery startup that launched only three years ago. "When we started we were quite far behind our competitors, but they weren't adapting fast enough to mobile," says CEO Niklas Östberg. "They still haven't." Östberg's first business was an online pizza delivery service in Sweden, which he ran from Berlin before launching Delivery Hero in 2011. "We set up in Berlin because there's no better place to start an international business," Östberg says. "We have great people from all over the world." In 2013, the company raised series D investment of $340 million, reporting more than 100 per cent growth and net revenue of €60 million. It also recently announced an expansion from 14 to 21 markets, including seven Latin American countries via acquisition. "Our main competitor remains the telephone, because that's what most people still use to order food," Östberg says. "The product is still only 25 per cent of its potential. We still have little control over food quality, for instance. Our long-term ambition is to deliver the perfect food delivery experience."

I've seen him on the news. Followed the stories about what happened in Ohio. John Smith, out there, on the run. To the world, he's a mystery. But to me . . . he's one of us.
Nine of us came here, but sometimes I wonder if time has changed us—if we all still believe in our mission. How can I know? There are six of us left. We're hiding, blending in, avoiding contact with one another . . . but our Legacies are developing, and soon we'll be equipped to fight. Is John Number Four, and is his appearance the sign I've been waiting for? And what about Number Five and Six? Could one of them be the raven-haired girl with the stormy eyes from my dreams? The girl with powers that are beyond anything I could ever imagine? The girl who may be strong enough to bring the six of us together?
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They tried to catch Number Four in Ohio—and failed.
I am Number Seven. One of six still alive.
And I'm ready to fight.

- By Tina Aldatz –
When shopping for shoes proper fit is key: Over 90% of people have different sized feet. When buying shoes, buy shoes that fit your larger foot (commonly up to a ½ size difference). You never want to wear a shoe that is too small! You can really damage your feet from blisters to bunions. I always recommend going with a larger size and cushioning them to give you the perfect fit. If you are shopping online and can't try a shoe on then read the reviews. Customer feedback really helps determine if the shoes are running big or small. Most places today offer free return shipping so don't be afraid to try a new style.
When headed to a party, I always recommend using Killer Kushionz and Tip Toes to prep your party shoes to last through night-long bashes. This combo is my secret weapon!
Put all these tips to good use – check out Shopping For: Party Shoes – perfect for New Year's Eve!

I applied for the position via USA Jobs in March 2013.

A few days later I had a phone interview with a manager, I later received a phone call from another manager stating that I was referred to him for a potential job opportunity within his division. I had a phone interview with him the very next day and was offered an in-person interview which took place early November 2013. The in-person interview consisted of 3 interviews with the manager and two of his staff members. Each interview lasted about 15-20 minutes. The manager stated that he was going to consult with his team and contact me with a decision by the end of the week (November 2013). I had not heard anything about the job so I followed up with the manager and was told that there was hang up in HR and that he would get back to me regarding next steps. I received a few e-mails requesting updated documents. I received my tentative job offer March 31, 2014. The process took one year from application to receiving the offer.

This department had already had two people quit and so they really needed someone to come on board and help. My job duties were nebulous because I believe there was no job description at the time, and they were bridging gaps.

the same goes for any other gay to straight clinics and practices. it cant be done ,you cant change that. accept it
the sadest part is when parents FORCE thier kids to go to places like this with the parents THINKING it can work. - elijahin24 2012/02/07 19:58:18just a way for "anti gay" pervs to get off+2This would be hilarious, if it weren't sad, on so many levels. So many gays feel they NEED to change. So many think THIS will save them. So many will be disappointed, and be heart-broken. Some literally won't survive. But these Bible-beaters who promote this nonsense, don't really give a damn. Just another dead fag to them. Gay believers, please stop fighting what you are. There isn't anything wrong with it, and if your god really is loving, it makes no sense that he would make you gay, and condemn you for it. So either he DOESN'T condemn you for it; or he isn't loving, and probably shouldn't be worshiped anyway. Live your life! It's too beautiful to waste on this idiocy.

Congressman Patrick McHenry (NC-10) released the following statement after joining with other members of the North Carolina delegation to vote for repeal of ObamaCare. Eight of the thirteen members of the NC delegation, including two Democrats, voted to repeal the law.
"With bipartisan support, Congress has listened to the American people and voted to repeal ObamaCare yet again," Congressman McHenry said. "Increasing taxes on hard-working Americans and small businesses by nearly $800 billion over the next decade will not fix our healthcare system. The President and Democrats in control of the Senate have had years to do the right thing and join us to work on real, patient-centered healthcare reform. This November, the American people can decide the outcome of this debate once and for all."

Founded in 1028, Christ Church Cathedral and is one of Dublins oldest buildings and is the elder of the capital city's two medieval cathedrals, the other being St Patrick's Cathedral.
The church was built by King Sitric Silkenbeard on the high ground overlooking the Viking settlement at Wood Quay and was and originally a wooden building
In the 1180s, Strongbow and other Norman magnates helped to fund a complete rebuilding of Christ Church, in stone, comprising the construction of a choir, choir aisles and transepts, the crypt and chapels to St. Edmund and St. Mary and St. Lô. Further extensions were added over the centuries and the cathedral was extensively renovated and rebuilt from 1871 to 1878 by George Edmund Street.
In the medieval period the Cathedral was a major pilgrimage site, with an important collection of relics ranging from a miraculous speaking cross to a piece from the crib of Jesus. Today, it is still possible to see one of these relics, the heart of Laurence O'Toole, patron saint of Dublin.
Enjoy the walk around the medieval crypt where you will find the mummified Cat and Rat (know by locals as Tom and Jerry) they were found trapped behind the organ and preserved by the dry air of the cathedral. Also in the basement of the Cathedral is home to the cathedral shop and café.
You can also see the tomb of Strongbow - just inside the main doors. This is not the actual tomb of Strongbow but an effigy, the original tomb having been destroyed centuries ago though he is thought to buried somewhere within the church walls. There is a smaller effigy beside the Strongbow tomb of unknown origin. It's possible that this is either the original medieval Strongbow effigy, that of his lady wife, or his son.
During the New Year celebrations Dublin people and visitors will head to Christ Church Cathedral to hear the bells ring in the new year, this has been a tradition for many years. The cathedral's deployment of 19 bells, each ranging in weight from a quarter of a ton to two and a quarter tons, represents a world record of numbers of bells available for full-circle ringing. The oldest bells still in use at the cathedral date from 1738.
One of Irelands finest choirs is at the cathedral. This can be traced back to 1493 with the founding of the choir school. The choir in 1742 took part in the first ever performance of Handel's Messiah
Christ church is open to the public with a small admissions fee. Opening times vary depending on the time of the year you would like to visit.

The whole world is watching the Cristiano - Messi duel, as their frenzied chase, one after the other, makes the rivalry between Madrid and Barcelona more thrilling than ever. Neither player ever lets us down and now, on the eve of the next 'Clásico', Cristiano only goes and scores three against Getafe (the first pure Di Stefano-style) and a couple of hours later Messi replies with four. The Argentine scores more goals and his every increasing rhythm takes something away from Cristiano's extraordinary statistics. But, the Portuguese has scored more than a goal a game since he arrived in Madrid, something not Di Stefano, nor Puskas nor the legendary Pahiño managed.
Cristiano's advocates, his inner circle, maintain that he is the better of the two, but he has less support on the pitch. That he has to do it all himself, while Messi lives in a team of gods, a team that without him and with a couple of tweaks that made it better, but changed little substantially, won the European Championships and the World Cup. According to Cristiano's defenders, Messi without his team, without Xavi, Iniesta and the others, would be just an outstanding footballer, playing in Argentina, nothing more. It might even be true, but then neither is Cristiano scoring a goal a game in Portugal as he does in Madrid, with all the firepower the club provides to back him up.
For me, they are both giants. From Di Stéfano on I've seen them all, including Pelé and Maradona. None of them decided so many games or scored as many goals. In Pele's ledger there are a lot of goals from the regional tournament he played in back then, before the creation of a Brazilian league. Not that I would take anything away from Pelé, of course. But Messi and Cristiano are frantically scoring goals in the best footballing environment there has ever been. Messi scores more, it is true. He has a better team behind him, also true. But Cristiano is a giant who never ceases to challenge him. This is a mighty contest we are all enjoying.

With warmer springtime weather in place, you might be tempted to think that we've had our last freeze of the season. Not so fast. The pattern continues quite variable in nature, as it has since the beginning of the year. There are indications another shot of Canadian cold could bring a freeze by the middle of next week (March 19th or 20th). It bears watching.
Here's a link to my previous blog from February 28th about last freeze dates:

I have had success with Paxil in the past for social phobia and depression. My dilemma now though, is that I am still nursing my 8 month old son. I consider myself a "crunchy mama" as much as possible. The thought of Paxil and nursing is pretty gross to me. I have tried many other SSRI's and Paxil is the only one that has worked for me. I was thinking of trying St. John's Wort, but was wondering if this is safe while nursing. I mean, honestly, is it or isn't it?! I have done the research, looked at Kellymom, dr. Hale, etc. all which say Paxil is safer. I really would like to keep giving my son the benefits of breastmilk. He does get formula, but I really don't want to have to wean him now. I NEED some sort of medication for my moods and anxiety. Does anyone have any advice? Have you tried St. Johns Wort while nursing?
I should add that I am currently taking
High Potentcy Prenatal, Barleans Fish oil, Vitamin D 5000 IU, cal/mag. in the evening, and the Kyolic brand stress relief formula. I do have a "Happy Light" therapy lamp that I sit by daily as well for SAD.

I was not aware of this until I heard what happened to Kenneth Wright of Stockton, Calif. On June 7, at 6 a.m., Wright was awakened by a knock on his door. According to his account, he came downstairs in his boxer shorts, but before he could reach the door, federal police officers stormed in. They were looking for his estranged wife, who was not in the house. Wright has no criminal record.
Wright told local TV station "News 10" he was grabbed by the neck and taken outside to his front lawn. He says officers then awakened his children, ages 3, 7 and 11, and put them in a Stockton patrol car while his house was searched. "They put me in handcuffs in that hot patrol car for six hours, traumatizing my kids," he said.
DOE spokesman Justin Hamilton told the TV station that federal agents with the Office of Inspector General (OIG) served the search warrant. Hamilton would not say why the raid took place, but he said it was not because someone had defaulted on student loans, as some local media initially reported.
A statement from the OIG said: "The reasons for our search warrant are currently under seal by the court and cannot be discussed publicly." The statement added: "OIG ... is responsible for the detection and prevention of waste, fraud, abuse and criminal activity involving Department of Education funds, programs and operations." If they were consistent, they'd be breaking down the doors of many failing public schools that are wasting taxpayer funds and allow especially poor and minority children out so they can choose better schools and have a brighter future.
Constitutional attorney John Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute in Charlottesville, Va. (Rutherford.org), says the Stockton incident is one of a growing number of examples threatening the Fourth Amendment, which guarantees "the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures..."
Whitehead says the passage of the U.S. Patriot Act "opened the door to other kinds of invasions" beyond the search for terrorist suspects. Worse, the courts are increasingly approving this cozy association between government and the police. "The problems inherent in these situations," he says, "are further compounded by the fact that SWAT teams are granted 'no-knock' warrants at high rates, such that the warrants themselves are rendered practically meaningless."

I'm not a breeder - no experience at all.
But as a puppy buyer I would not want to take my pup home at 4 weeks. All pups grow fast but they need to be with the mother IMO for development and health reasons. I don't know why that would be different for a singleton? 7-8 weeks is a good time to go home. Good luck. |

Heck no, even though the pup is probably mostly weaned the benefits of being around the mother are still there. Warmth, comfort, manners, and other basic skills are still being imprinted on the puppy and without a medical reason there is no benefit for the pup to leave outside of it is convenient for the breeder to not have to clean up or deal with the puppy anymore and they get the money from the sale faster
Pups should never leave the mother until 8 weeks old, by then they will have had their first shots and worming done (hopefully) and will be mature enough to go to their new homes You really should think twice about this breeder if they are willing to let a puppy go that early. It really is shameful for them to put their own convenience over the puppy's health

I would absolutely not bring home a puppy that young, ever. I would run far, FAR away from a breeder trying to get rid of a puppy that young.
They need to stay with their mom until at least 7 weeks for socialization/development, and longer if you don't have dogs at home to teach bite inhibition.

I'd look for another breeder. Given this breeder so fast to want to rid themselves of the responsibility of caring for a puppy, I would not trust anything they say. I would cut my losses and find someone else to deal with.

1. While the pup is large and doing fine, take it away from its mother, and that can change fast. Puppies should not be weaned at 4 weeks, and changing the puppy's diet, how much of which is milk from its dam, unknown is likely to cause issues. 2. Even if the puppy is large, it's bladder is small, and its developement is at 4 weeks. You should not be trying to house train such a youngster, and you really can't keep it crated for any amount of time. 3. Right now all its confidence is coming from its dam. Removing it from its dam at this point and shifting who it gets its confidence from, may remove the confidence boost a pup gets when it leaves its first home and sinks or swims. It should only be done if the bitch is dead. This is bad for the pup and the dam. 4. You will have to wait for it to grow up a bit before you can actually start training it. 5. The puppy is probably still under the dam's immunity, and so you will have to keep it at home until it is at the right age to start receiving innoculations. And then some. Just a few, I would call this breeder and tell them you changed your mind and are not going to buy the puppy from them. They are not considering the welfare of the pup or the dam.

Deena Nicole Did WHAT Super Romantic Thing For Boyfriend Chris? (PHOTO)
Deena Nicole has definitely made strides since starring on Jersey Shore with her fellow Meatball Snooki. In fact, both girls have settled down with their men, slimmed down, and are doing better than ever.
Deena and her boyfriend, Chris Buckner, are about as cute as they can be, and it looks like she might have fully completed her transformation from partier to domestic goddess.
Just check out this dinner spread she made for Chris. She posted the photo to Instagram with the caption, "Cooked for my man tonight."Just take a look at all that delicious food: chicken cutlets, corn, string beans, mashed potatoes, and she even has a nice cold beer waiting for him. Seriously, Chris, put a ring on it. This one's a keeper.
What do you think about Deena's romantic gesture? Hit the comments and let us know!

Responsible Luxury
Title: | Responsible Luxury |
Refashioning luxury goods through co-creation | |
Author: | Wolny, Julia; Hansen, Rina |
Abstract: | Sustainable fashion in all its guises, has been the preoccupation of many a recent campaign, article, research and initiative. Not only is the industry increasingly aware of the need to cut its environmental impact, but also consumers and consumer organisations are putting pressures on various parts of the supply chain to comply with environmental and ethical practices. Yet, from a management perspective, the economic impact of these demands can lead to conflicting priorities. In particular, the basic marketing concept of product lifecycle indicates the product's gradual diminishing monetary returns through time. In this paper we will be analysing a case of a refashioning of products that are either obsolete or unsalable and making a commercially viable collection. In 2008 MCM collaborated with the London College of Fashion to reuse, recycle and redesign a number of end-of-line, dated handbags into new objects of desire with a new lifecycle. This case will form a basis of analysing the validity of such a product re-development tactic for other luxury brands. The paper will provides a blueprint for future re-fashioning initiatives by reflecting on the value inherent in the process for both users and firms alike. The paper contributes to the understanding of recycling and sustainable fashion from a theoretical perspective that links together the product lifecycle, co-creation and value creation theories. The main theoretical implication of the work concerns the framing of recycling and refashioning with the context of those linked concepts.According to this contribution, refashioning can enable value creation from obsolete products, especially if a co-design with consumers or users forms part of the proposition. On the managerial side, this study recognisees the economic drivers of business and highlights the commercial, not only environmental and societal benefits of recycling within the luxury sector. The recycled products stand in direct opposition to counterfeiting, which is evident in the uniqueness for refashioned products leading to the development of new objects of desire. |

Biographical notes
English composer and poet, Richard became Master of the Children of the Chapel Royal in 1561 and wrote two plays for them. His five surviving songs, of which the most famous is "In Going to my Naked Bed", show the influence of the Franco-Flemish style on English music before the arrival of the Italian madrigal. Three keyboard arrangements of 3 part-songs (only one assigned to him, but the other two assumed to be his from his authorship of the words) survive in MS.
Richard Edwards was educated at Oxford, receiving both a Bachelor's and a Master's degree. He considered the law as a career, entering Lincoln's Inn Field, but never took up the practice. Instead he became master of the children at the Chapel Royal, where he created musical dramas that the children's choir could perform. The composition, 'Palamon and Arcite' was written for the Queen, and was performed at Oxford. The Queen was impressed with the piece, and intended to bestow a gift on Edwards, but he died soon after the performance.
Little more is known of Edwards' life. Edwards' importance as a playwright is that he instigated the basing of the English tragedy on the Latin classical model. His plays were classical in subject, but were set in a contemporary world. The only play of his that is still in existence is 'Damon and Pithias' (1571).

Works on line include
A question of parentage
The story says Henry VIII is known to have had 6 wives and several mistresses during his marriage to Catherine of Aragon. One mistress is said to been Agnes Blewitt. King Henry the VIII is said to have fathered a son with her, whom was born after her marriage to William Edwards. She and William named the son Richard Edwards. Agnes and William Edwards lived adjacent to the King's Hunting lodge in Somerset, England. The Edwards had other children with birth and baptism records stating William and Agnes as the parents, but there is no records for Richard.
Richard was afforded many favorable opportunities as a young man, including a post at Christ Church College in Oxford. Finally, he was included in the inner circle of the royal family, both during the lifetime and after the death of Henry VIII. This was the pattern of favoritism shown other known bastard children of Henry VIII. A book on the subject was written in 1992 by David Dean Edwards called 'Edward's Legacy'.
parentage discussions
Comments from Geni discussion include:
"it cant be much of a rumor because I have not been told i was wrong. I have sent my brothers Ydna results to the Society of Genealogists. Richard was henry sons dna shows Henry's line are a R1b1a2 as is my brothers fathers. If I was wrong they would have sent me a letter informing me my lines are incorrect."
And she further notes:
***I believe I've done enough research to be sure about Richards true lineage. It is believed that his mother Agnes, became pregnant for Richard during her time at court. Her other two children William & Henry are the only two on record as the sons of husband, William.
The Family Tree DNA - Edwards Y-DNA Surname Project as of May 2014 shows:
- Edwards
- Goronwy Ap Tudor, Born 1275, Died 1371. Wales
- R1b1 DNA Unassigned
From http://www.werelate.org/wiki/Family:Unknown_and_Agnes_Blewett_%281%29#Disputed_Lineages
▼ Disputed Lineages The paternity of Richard Edwardes is a matter of active dispute. The candidates being Thomas Edwardes and Henry VIII. Among the points of relevant discussion:
It is suggested by some researchers, including David Dean Edwards, author of "The Edwards Legacy" (1992), that Agnes Blewitt was mistress to King Henry VIII, and her son Richard was fathered by King Henry, not her husband, William Edwardes. Some indicators of his parentage, in this researchers opinion, are that Henry did provide a stipend for Richard, and provided financial wherewithal for him to attend Oxford. Agnes was honored with the addition of Tudor Roses to her personal crest, but no blood link to the Tudors has as yet been found in her line to justify that addition.
Experts agree there is no evidence Agnes was ever at Court. Edwards genealogists don't argue. Instead, they say Henry VIII had a hunting lodge at Huntworth in Somerset, near where Agnes lived. Agnes' son Richard Edwardes was born at North Petherton, two miles away. However, Henry VIII only visited the West Country once, in 1535, while Richard Edwardes, his supposed son was born there 10-12 years earlier, between 1523 and 1525. Further, the Victoria County History, a very comprehensive source for local history, makes no mention of a royal hunting lodge at North Petherton, at Huntworth, or anywhere else in the area.
Richard was born in 1523-24, and died in 1566. A composer and poet, he was Master of the Children of the Chapel Royale, and wrote two plays for them. His five surviving songs, of which the most famous is "In Going To My Naked Bed". His composition, "Palamon and Arcite" was written for the Queen (Elizabeth) and was performed at Oxford.
Another link to Henry would be Richard's career in the clergy of the Anglican Church, founded by Henry VIII as the national religion and justifying his (Henrys) break with the Roman Catholic Church over the Popes refusal of a divorce.
Rev. Richard Edwardes (1523 - 1566) was an English poet and playwright; he was made a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal, and was master of the singing boys. He was known for his comedies and interludes, but was also rumoured to be an illegitimate son of Henry VIII.
Richard Edward(e)s, was born Oct of 1523-25 in North Petherton, Somerset, England. His parents of record are William Thomas Edwardes of North Petherton and Agnes Blewett of Holcombe Rogus, Devon.
Some researchers and Brit historians believe that Richard is an illegitimate son of Henry VIII (Tudor) and Agnes Blewitt, as Agnes was at court just prior to her pregnancy and Henry VIII provided a stipend for Richard's childhood support, and guaranteed and paid for his education at Oxford. Richard's mother, Agnes Blewitt, was allowed to add the Tudor roses to her personal crest.
Though educated at Oxford to be a lawyer, Richard Edwardes never practiced law, and instead became a cleric in the Anglican Church. He was a poet and playwright of some renoun, writing such rousing plays as Palemon and Arcite for the entertainment of (his supposed half sister) Queen Elizabeth. His passing was noted by a contemporary of the time as being a writer of the same class as Shakespeare.
Richard Edwards married Helene Griffith in about 1560. I have found as many as 6 children listed as being born to this marriage in the six years prior to his death in 1566.
Some feel that any researcher listing Henry VIII as the paternal line for Richard Edwardes is "Royalty Hunting". But if the William Thomas Edwards line is traced through to its early sources in Wales, it descends on a direct line through generations of Welsh kings to Coel Hen, the last Dux Brittorium, or King of All Britian, ca between 150 and 400 A. D.
From Geni User Angela Carnes
Richard Edwards is Henry VIII's son. DNA has been proven. I dont need to Royal hunt. Thomas Edwardes even said in his manuscripts Richard wasnt his. Agnes is of noble background and was not of lesser Aristocracy like Anne Boleyn Katherine Howard.

Bielefeld Exchange
The Department has had an exchange program with Bielefeld University for many years. This program was until recently limited to graduate students. We are currently in the process of negotiating a new exchange agreement that includes a framework for faculty and undergraduate exchanges as well. During this process the exchange program is inactive. We expect the new agreement to be finalized by summer 2014, at which point the exchange program will become active again. Please send any questions about the program to Sebastian Rand (email@example.com).

"It seems to me that the decision taken by the court regarding the position of the representative of the government of India becoming a Civil Party was a political decision. It was taken so that no one should get the impression that Italy would not like to admit foreign governments when they are in court. As a matter of law, the documents they submitted fell short of the requirements provided by our law," Professor Ennio Amodio, counsel for Mr. Giuseppe Orsi, former Chairman and CEO of Finmeccanica, told The Hindu.
"There is no proper certification of who he is exactly and who he represents –it is assumed he will represent the Indian government. We are obliged to accept his presence......." Prof. Amodio said.
"The procedure that the court has adopted now is a special procedure, an "immediate" procedure. In Italy we have a mechanism called the preliminary hearing as it is called in England and the United States. In the procedure adopted the preliminary hearing is dropped and we go straight into the examination of the evidence on the basis of a request by the Prosecutor and an immediate summons for the trial. So this gives us no chance to scrutinise the evidence. This is why I have asked the court to declare this procedure as unconstitutional," he said.
"There is not enough evidence. The tender process, how it was handled – there are no papers. We have no witnesses. So a lot of evidence is missing. The Prosecutor has to prove that there was corruption. They have to prove whether Air Marshal Tyagi was actually bribed. As far as we know everything was lawfully carried out. We contest that there was corruption at all....."
"Mr. Orsi wanted to come today but we advised him to stay away since his presence is not needed. He will be present in court in September when the witnesses are called," he added.

Real reviews, from customers like you.
Lovely clean and spacious log cabin, beautiful surroundings and very friendly site. It was great and only a short drive from amenities. Would recommend this place, hot tub isn't as private as I liked but still private enough and a great added bonus.
Nice place. Helpful staff. Quiet.
If you just want to escape for a few days this is the perfect place. Good food, lovely pool and the lodges are perfect.
Lovely countryside surroundings and easy to get around in the car. Only disappointment is the restaurant is not big enough and struggled to book in to get a place. Overall though, beautiful place.
The park initially sounded what we wanted , however upon arrival there where too many rules, regulations and extra charges given to us in the information booklet that we hadn't been informed about beforehand. There was a charge for using the main pool, you were not allowed to bring friends to visit for the day unless you paid an extra charge and usage of the hot tub was not allowed after dusk!! thats the time to use it most. We felt as though we were being watched by park staff .
Amazing relaxing weekend break
Beautiful place to stay, everything was perfect for us. We have booked again for next year
Restaurant on site does not have a phone, unable to reserve table directly with restaurant and staff very unhelpful when we rang reception.
There are very few facilities on the site; only a coffee shop, a small swimming pool and a restaurant. That suited us completely. There were also no children allowed on the site, which also suited us. There was very limited wifi and very little phone coverage
Lovely surroundings, pleasant and helpful staff, brilliant resturant, a little over priced for the lodge, have stayed in cheaper with additional facilities included, overall a peaceful, relaxing break in.
We enjoyed our weekend here! Beautiful clean lodge in a peaceful location. Great way to spend our honeymoon!
Food out of this world!!!!! Pool was closed but looked lovely. Staff lovely and friendly. 2 person cabin and hot tub was lovely and peacefull. Would recommend. 10+
great break, nice lodge, hot tub great, pool and spa closed only downside was cleanliness didn't look as though it had been cleaned at all. maybe that's just me being a cleaning supervisor with high standards
The hottub was great, very quiet location for a very relaxing holiday but close to lots of action if thats what you wanted. Great holiday over all. Staff helpful if you needed them but kept out of the way when you didnt. The lodge was maintained to a high standard and wine on flowers on arrivel.

Stash Spoglight: Jill Stuart Eye Shadow Palettes
One of my most prized collections is that of my Jill Stuart cosmetics particularly my Jill Stuart Eye Shadow Palettes.
You'll see why after the jump!
Jill Stuart Cosmetics have that certain beautiful packaging that makes us forget most of the makeup world and just stare in awe (and possibly drool while doing so) and excitement at the beauty that makes up this makeup. Much of the packaging is unique to anything I've purchased before and very, very beautiful. I'm a fan particularly of the eye shadow palettes whith house soft shimmering shades of color. I started out my collection with a single palette and soon after hauled five more. Since that time I ended up with near 20 palettes but only nine now make up my collection as various ones were handed over to friends who fell as in love with them as I did.
Although expensive and at times repetitious the brand holds a very special place in my heart. Hope you enjoyed my stash spotlight of Jill Stuart Shadow Palettes!
9/8/09 9:30 Myna:
Hi. Where do you buy your Jill Stuart products. I would like to try some of them. Thanks for the information
9/8/09 9:32 the Muse:
Hi Myna
I have a few friends in Japan who buy them for me. You can find them on E-bay and a few select stores across the web but the prices are a bit jacked up from retail sadly. You can see my Japanese Cosmetic Buying Guide for further details.
Hope it helps
10/17/09 7:28 Reggi:
which palette is your favorite?? also, what's the diff between illuminance, brilliance, and seductive eyes? my mom is going to TW and i want her to bring me some!! =D
10/22/09 13:55 the Muse:
mmm hard to say reggi I love them all. the different is the finish…..more matte, shimmery, sparkle…aside from that it's about the formula all around!
10/22/09 13:58 Reggi:
yeah i wouldn't be able to decide either… they're all so pretty! *_* i hope my mom can bring me something awesome back! i have the glazed granet one… i love how nicely it blends!!!!! x)
10/22/09 14:02 the Muse:
LOL it's difficult to pick JUST one jill stuart as a favorite It really does blend beautifully they are beautiful items. Lucky you as they are cheaper by a little bit compared to Japanese prices in Taiwan
3/2/10 9:36 Chelle Chioa:
Ooh… I can only afford one palette for now! I love the jewel crystal eyes… The glitters really stick to your skin, I was puzzled when some commented on my blog review about how JS eye shadows usually have glitter fall outs so I researched more and learned that jewel crystal eyes has the new and improved formula and it's definitely the best JS eye shadow quality to date… But I have to be honest I'm a sucker for packaging… I'm afraid of glitters because of fall outs but I still bought this without testing! <3
3/2/10 9:48 the Muse:
hey chelle even with fall out I don't mind as they are just so PRETTY
4/6/10 1:48 Christine:
i was wondering, how much are these palettes usually if compared here in the US and in Asia? i'm going to Asia in a couple of months and i'm hoping to snag one of these lovely things. =)
4/12/10 16:03 the Muse:
'bout 15 to $20 difference Christine price wise
11/27/10 7:58 Grace:
I'm wondering have you finished using a palette yet? Can you take out the eyeshadow slots and use it as a card case?
11/30/10 9:22 the Muse:
I haven't finished any of the shadows yet grace but I don't think you can remove them and even if you could a credit card or ID wouldn't fit inside this case. It wouldn't close if you tried storing cards in it.
Hope this helps!
3/5/11 7:12 Anne:
wow! You've got so many JS eyeshadow palettes I would love to try one of these its just that its so expensive…
10/12/12 7:31 Nicole:
Do you possibly know where I could get a replacement sponge applicator for this? I loved mine and it was chucked down a drain with a tub full of water after I was cleaning it, (It's made me quite upset actually) ='( Any help would be totally appreciated.
11/27/12 12:39 Yogi:
WOW!! I want to try them! Hope to find them anywhere!

As an expatriate New Orleanian I've been
watching the progress on the Steel Mill bid closely. The mill would have
provided 2700 direct jobs and 4300 "indirect" jobs (suppliers, etc).
Alabama offered $800 million of incentives ($461 million for site prep,
roads, training, port and barge terminal)and $339 million of state and local
tax abatements. Alabama has a big Mercedes Benz plant west of Birmingham
and the Mercedes executives were instrumental in convincing the German steel
mill people to locate in Alabama. These successes sort of build on one
another. Louisiana's problem certainly wasn't the incentive they offered,
which was twice what Alabama offered. Louisiana's problem is that for
generations the state has been seen as very anti-business, so companies are
extremely cautious about investing billions of dollars in the state. But,
no one seems to be too concerned about improving our reputation. Until
that's done, we'll continue to !
lose opportunities like this, and our response will continue to be "Screw 'em!"

If you are ready to make a meal plan selection, or make a change to your meal plan,
click here
to go to the
page to complete your selection.
This year, we are excited to offer two, new meal plan options called "PLUS" plans. The two available "PLUS" plan options are the 10 Weekly PLUS and the 125 Block PLUS.
The "PLUS" Plans have been added in response to a consistent demand from students to have meal plan options which provide larger balances of Points.
These two plans, when compared to the regular 10 Weekly and 125 Block plans, provide a $200 increase in Points per semester, at a cost of only $160!
Please note that these are not considered part of the required meal plan options which resident students must choose from. Resident students do have the opportunity to upgrade to the "PLUS" plan options if they choose.
2014 - 2015 Resident Student Meal Plans
- Any University of Delaware student living on campus in a traditional residence hall is required to select one of the six (6) meal plan options below - this excludes students living in the Christiana Towers
- Resident students are defaulted to the 10 Weekly plan - this is also the meal plan that is automatically reflected on the student bill
- Students may opt to remain on the 10 Weekly plan, or make a selection to a different resident meal plan option
- The resident meal plan a student selects prior to the beginning of the academic year will be locked in several days before Move-In Weekend
- Once on campus, students have the ability to make one meal plan change up until the published Drop/Add Date - which is September 9, 2014
2014 - 2015 Optional Meal Plans
- Any student living off-campus or in the Christiana Towers is NOT required to purchase a meal plan - however, it is still suggested that these students consider the purchase of a UD Dining meal plan
- The Optional Meal Plans below are available to off-campus students and residents of the Christiana Towers, however, these students
select from
of the available meal plan options, including the Resident Student Meal Plans and the two "PLUS" plans
- Optional Meal Plans are designed to offer a convenient dining solution for off-campus students who are looking to supplement their dining needs while on campus throughout the week
- In many instances, students living just off campus find the resident meal plan options attractive based on their proximity to campus and their ability, or preference to cook and prepare meals on their own
Overview of UD Dining Meal Plans
Types of Meal Plans
plans - Weekly plans provide students with a more structured meal plan option because the Weekly plans reset with the selected number of Meals every Sunday for the duration of the semester. This provides peace of mind that whether it is week 2 of the semester, or week 14, the student will have Meals available to begin each week.
Students do need to pay attention to their usage of Meals throughout the week. We encourage every student to be aware of their Weekly meal balance and use them accordingly prior to the Meals resetting for the start of the next week on Sunday morning.
plans - Block plans are designed to provide students with added flexibility by offering a larger number of Meals that can be used over the course of the entire semester.
This allows students the ability to use any number of Meals one week to the next. The Block plans place a certain level of responsibility on the student's behalf to properly budget their balance of Meals throughout the semester. The flexibility the Block plan offers could lead to a student using their full balance of Meals before the end of the semester, or having a number of Meals remaining at the end of the semester. Either way, keeping track of the Meal balance is especially important if a student decides to select a Block plan.
plans - Anytime plans function exactly the same as the Block plans, which are explained above. The greatest, and only difference between these two meal plan options is the ability to use multiple Meals during a single meal period.
For example, a Block plan allows a student to use one Meal during a breakfast, or lunch, or dinner. The Anytime plans allow a student to use multiple Meals for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Because the Anytime plan is an Optional meal plan, and designed as an option to supplement on campus dining, the ability to use multiple Meals is allowed.
plans - All-Point plans are large balances of Points programmed onto a student's ID card. The three (3) All-Point plans were created with specific weekly balances in mind.
The $750 All-Point plan is ideal for students who expect to
approximately $50 per week - or $10 per day - in on-campus dining purchases.
The $450 All-Point plan is ideal for students who expect to average approximately $30 per week - or $6 per day - in on-campus dining purchases.
The $300 All-Point plan is ideal for students who expect to
approximately $15 per week - or $3 per day - in on-campus dining purchases.
The $150 All-Point plan is ideal for students who expect to average approximately $10 per week - or $2 per day - in on-campus dining purchases.
Types of Meal Plan Funds
- Meals are only used to access the four (4), all-you-care-to-eat residential dining locations on campus - all of which are conveniently located near the residence hall complexes. Meals cannot be redeemed in our food court, snack bars or convenience locations
- Points are a declining balance account, which simply means they function just like a debit card. Every time a students uses Points, it is a dollar-for-dollar, penny-for-penny transaction until the Points balance reaches zero.
Points can be used in ANY on-campus dining location, but they are typically used for purchases in our food courts, convenience and coffee locations.
Points will rollover from the Fall semester to the Spring semester, but unused Points remaining at the end of the Spring semester do not rollover to the following academic year.
Points can be added throughout the year as needed
through the Dining Choose or Change Application at www.udel.edu/dining, a cash deposit at one of four Value Transfer Stations on campus (located in the Trabant University Center, Perkins Student Center, Christiana Commons, and Morris Library Lower Level); or a deposit at Cashiers or the outside drop slot at the Student Services Building (minimum $25 deposit).
You may call (302) 831-4033 or email
for details.
"Guest Meals"
- Guest Meals can be used for visiting friends or relatives to gain access to the all-you-care-to-eat residential dining locations. A student can also use Guest Meals for themselves if they want. Guest Meals do not rollover to the following semester, so we encourage every student to be aware of their Guest Meal balance and use them accordingly.
