WP snatched a dramatic 20-18 victory in Friday's Vodacom Cup final to win their first title in 11 years.
Not since Western Province lifted the 2001 Currie Cup has a Cape side won a senior competition. WP left it until the last play to secure Friday's result, but the manner of victory will not worry the Capetonians. The silverware will bring a small degree of relief to a union that's had no success in terms of winning titles over the past decade.
Province may have come into this clash unbeaten, but they were the lesser side for much of the game. Griquas were dominant at the set pieces and collisions, and bossed territory and possession for the majority of the contest. It was all WP could do to hold on and prevent Griquas from running away with the game.
As the end approached, one couldn't help but feel that the loser would bear the tag of choker. Griquas had dominated but missed several penalty attempts in the fourth quarter, and in retrospect just one of those penalties would have been enough to win the title.
Before the decisive score, WP had botched several scoring opportunities. Five metres out from their opponents' line, they conceded scrum turnovers on two occasions. Captain Nick Fenton-Wells turned down a kickable penalty after 67 minutes, and the decision proved flawed as WP lost the subsequent lineout.
But for all of their failings, they never gave up. The Griquas defence was superb, and there seemed to be no way through. It required no small measure of patience for WP to wear Griquas down, and when the hosts finally relented, flanker Rohan Kitshoff was the man to crash over and level the scores.
It was still down to Demetri Catrakilis to win the game, as the conversion was by no means a sitter. The WP flyhalf slotted it coolly, giving WP their first ever win in this competition.

Franey added to Pfeiffer University women's basketball coaching staff
August 2, 2013
Jeremy Zalacca - Sports Information Director
MISENHEIMER, N.C. – Pfeiffer University Head Women's Basketball Coach Roy Dow has announced the hiring of Jordan Franey as the team's assistant coach. Franey spent the 2012-13 season as Dow's assistant at California Lutheran University.
"I couldn't be more excited about having Jordan at Pfeiffer," said Dow. "I worked with her previously so it will be a seamless transition. She is a terrific young, developing coach and our student athletes will enjoy her enthusiasm and knowledge."
In Franey's one season as an Assistant Coach for the Regals, the squad finished 23-5, tying the school record for most wins in a season. Cal Lutheran also won the regular season SCIAC crown with a 13-3 record and advanced to the NCAA Tournament by capturing the SCIAC Conference Tournament Title. The Regals led the conference in defense, allowing on 55.7 points per game, and their .405 field goal percentage, and 4.7 rebounding margin, was also tops in the league.
Prior to her stint at Cal Lutheran, Franey was a Graduate Assistant Coach at Whittier College from 2010-12. On the sidelines for Whittier, Franey helped with post player development, as well as working on the team's strength and conditioning. She also oversaw recruiting and the academic progress of her players.
Franey had a decorated playing career at Division I UC Santa Barbara. She was part of three Big West Conference Championships, as well as two consecutive berths to the NCAA Tournament (2008, 2009). The Gauchos fell to the eventual tournament runner-up, Stanford, in 2009. Franey was named the Big West Freshman of the Year in 2006-07 and posted the eighth most assists and 10th most points scored during a freshmen campaign in school history. Franey earned a selection to the Big West All-Conference and All-Academic Teams during the 2008-09 season and played in all 128 games during her career.
Franey gained her bachelor's degree from UC Santa Barbara in 2010 with a major in History and minors in Exercise & Sport Science and Education & Applied Psychology. She received her master's from Whittier in 2012 while studying Education and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a grade point average of 3.912.

It's not that masculine IMO, but it's good stuff, would suit younger guys better, and is safe as can be.
what is a fragrance that a guy 18-mid 20's would have absolutely NO objections to wearing, but it also doesnt fall into the category that usual people in that age group wear that are gourmand or aquatic, but just masculine, manly, and smells attractive.
thanks basenoters

Jacomo for Men was first introduced in 2007 as an oriental woody fragrance. Creator, Mathilde Bijaoui, offered top notes of flauntingly fresh and sweet pineapple and citruses, featuring sharp notes of black pepper. The heart is also spiced and sharp, wrapped in accords of pimento, coffee, plum and nutmeg. The base consists of Tonka bean, amber and vetiver. This powerful masculine and, above all, highly exotic and spiced scent is available as 50 and 100 ml edt.

Dior Leather Oud
if mentioned frags are considered appropriate for young people, I would also like to add
Cartier Declaration, Essence and Bois Bleu
I would say Polo Double Black is all of those things.
Magnetism is modern with that metallic/cola at the start and then the dry down is masculine and quite sexy. Great for going out.

+1 on 2Man. Fits the bill. Johnny, based on your professed admiration of Gucci PH I, I think you'd dig this. I find them to have a similar vibe, but 2Man certainly feels more modern, more unique.
On the mainstream side of things, I think Givenchy Play fits the bill. Starts of sweet and citric, then dries down to a slightly sweet woody smell. A little generic, perhaps, but fits the 18-20 anyone can wear it, not particularly gourmand, not aquatic. Less weird than 2Man...
yeah 2Man, and many other fragrances of CdG in general. It's really hard though to find a modern young generally pleasant modern fragrance that is not fresh or gourmand.
Would you wear something like Frederic Malle Iris Poudre?
Kenzo pour Homme Once Upon a Time
ointments and perfume delight the heart....
French Lover by Frederic Malle
+1 CdG 2 Man
Another one that is overlooked but is sexy, suave, modern and yet (unlike most modern scents) distinctly masculine is Michael Storer's Djin. It's smooth and dark and yet has hints of that 'fresh sweat' smell that women typically love. I mostly get grapefruit, cardamom, and a deep rose note bolstered with some natural galbanum, all over a very smooth and sexy human-like musk.
Not only is it a great scent, but it's at a great price. It's only like $75 for a bottle.

Eau de Toilette
by Penhaligons
The Scoop
After offering the masterfully sensuous Amaranthine last year to the ladies, Penhaligons, as befits a traditional English house, has turned its attention to gentlemen. As an inspiration for Sartorial, Bertrand Duchaufour launched into an olfactory exploration of the Savile Row bespoke tailor Norton & Sons workshop. The odorant threads hes teased out compose a radically new vision of the most traditional masculine fragrance family, the fougère. Lavender acts as a reference both to the fougère and to a typically English scent. Boosted by aldehydes and ozonic materials, it conjures the steam rising from hot irons on tweeds fear not, there isnt the least hint of the aquatic in the blend --, the scissors and sewing machines. The dusty leather of club chairs and mounted hunting trophies springs from the combination of black pepper, gurjum wood, oakmoss and a leather accord. Patchouli and cedar rubbed in beeswax and honey soften the hard edges of the leather and metallic effects and smoothly wrap the blend, just as the waxed floors and cupboards bathe the tailors shop in a warm, fatty-animalic glow. Duchaufour aficionados may recognize a trace of that signature green pepper note hes dropped into many of his compositions.
As the quintessential English dandy and couturier to the Queen Hardy Amies once said: A man should look as if he bought his clothes with intelligence, put them on with care, then forgot about them. Thats Sartorial: tough and smooth, playful and elegant, impeccably tailored and as easy to wear as a bespoke suit.
Sartorial Notes
Aldehydes, ozonic effect, metallic effect, violet leaf, neroli, cardamom, black pepper, fresh ginger, beeswax, cyclamen, linden blossom, lavender, leather, gurjum wood, patchouli, myrrh, cedar wood, tonka bean, oakmoss, white musk, honey effect, old wood effect, vanilla, amber
Sorry Jonny my bad, Iris Poudre is not masculine.
Terre d'Hermes and grey vetiver are fantastic suggestions. Though Grey Vetiver is unisex imo.
the scents made under tom ford like m7, envy, gucci ph 1
I think recent fragrances with Tobacco notes would be modern+masculine
Pure Havane
The One for Men
GPH II (previously mentioned)
The Dreamer
Michael for Men
A few of the Varvatos scents
the one has terrible longevity, theres tobacco in gph 2? and the dreamer is very unisex, though still very good.
Cuir de Russie by Creed. I'm not kidding, bro...
Rive Gauche pour Homme
J. Peterman 1903-- don't let the name fool you. This is masculine and modern.
"All problems are illusions of the mind."

1. Gucci Pour Homme II
2. Lalique Encre Noire

German Wirehaired Pointer
Physical Characteristics
Breed Group:
The German Wirehaired Pointer is a member of the Gundog, Pointer, Versatile Hunting Dog and AKC Sporting.
60-70 lbs. (27-32kg)
24-26 inches at the withers.
This breed sports a liver and white coat, often liver and white spotted, or liver roan.
This functional wiry coat offers some weather resistance and water repellence. The undercoat may be dense or thin according to the season. The flat lying hairs are 1-2 inches in length. The outer coat may protect from rough ground cover and brambles. The coat is dense over the shoulder and around the tail.
With a history as a hunting dog, the German Wirehaired Pointer can be full of energy and determination. This intelligent and playful breed is usually friendly with people.
Country of Origin:
The German Pointer and many other breeds contributed to this lineage. In the 1800s, the breed developed to be a hard-working dog adaptable to all kinds of terrain. The German Wirehaired Pointer is Germany's most popular hunting breed.
Deutsch Drahthaar, Deutscher Drahthaariger Vorstehhund, Drahthaar, German Wire-Haired Pointing Dog, German Pointer (Wirehaired).
This rugged bird dog is active and reliable. An affectionate housedog, this breed also has a guarding instinct that may make it aloof to strangers. The German Wirehaired Pointer like to roam.
This breed is an eager learner that should be socialized early. The handler needs to provide consistent training.
The German Wirehaired Pointer loves to work and exercise. Plenty of exercise can include hunting, running and exploring. With its ability as a hunting dog, it likes to track, point and retrieve for hours.
The owner who fails to exercise his dog may find it difficult to manage or even destructive.
Ownership: The German Wirehaired Pointer makes a good watchdog, while getting along with other animals. This friendly companion is better suited for older, considerate children. Owners should realize this breed can be bored, so an active family life in a house with a large yard would be a good fit. An outdoors person who can spend much time exercising his dog is desirable.
No breeders listed at this time.

Paarl Boys', Paarl Gym, Paul Roos and Bishops all picked up good wins over the weekend.
In the Schoolboy Derby feature match of the weekend, Rondebosch were blitzed 48-11 by Boishaai at home. The hosts entertained in the opening minutes as they took the lead early in the first half and held on for a 11-10 advantage at the break. But Paarl Boys', who boast six WP Craven Week players this year, were too strong in the second stanza as they scored 38 unanswered points for an emphatic victory.
Bishops continued their strong run with a 36-24 triumph over Boland Landbou. Paarl Gym and Paul Roos, who are enduring poor campaigns, recorded much-needed wins as they beat Wynberg Boys' 31-22 and SACS 22-10 respectively.
Oakdale won the big Southern Cape derby against Outeniqua 23-13.
Western Cape results:
Bishops 36 Boland Landbou 24

TSP mulls mutual-fund option
Tuesday - 10/23/2012, 8:27pm EDT
Just five months after the Thrift Savings Plan's new Roth option launched, the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board, which manages the TSP, is mulling whether to add a new offering to federal employees' (401)k-style retirement plan: a mutual fund window.
The board addressed that topic at its monthly meeting Monday, Kim Weaver, the director of external affairs, told In Depth with Francis Rose. However, the board is still studying the issue, Weaver said, and no changes are imminent.
Option would expand investment options
The mutual fund window would allow participants to move investments out of the TSP funds they've invested in and into a private-sector suite of mutual funds.
The 2009 Thrift Savings Plan Enhancement Act updated the TSP to include automatic enrollment and immediate agency matching contributions as well as the Roth option. On the issue of a mutual fund window, it left the door open — authorizing the board to consider one — without specifically requiring any action.
The option would expand participants' investment options, which federal employees have called for in the past.
"There have been, over the years, a whole host of proposals for specific TSP funds," Weaver said. "There are terror-free funds, socially responsible investing, gold funds ... You name it, there've been people who've wanted specific TSP funds."
But in expanding those options, the board wants to ensure it maintains the TSP's simplicity.
"One of the geniuses of the TSP is that it is a really simple plan with limited funds ... And we have always been careful to guard that and make that low-cost option available to our participants," Weaver said.
No 'pent-up demand' for the plan yet
And there's still a long process ahead, Weaver said. "No one should be expecting that by Christmas this is going to be something that's available," she added.
So far, Weaver said, employee groups and unions on the Employee Thrift Advisory Council are not "sensing any pent-up demand" for the option. But the board will continue to study the issue over the next year, examining how the mutual fund window works in private-sector retirement plans as well as how costs would be distributed to participants.
Fee disclosure will take up a large part of the deliberations.
The Labor Department is adamant that 401(k) plans, both public and private, publicize fees to their participants. In the TSP, fees now make up less less than 50 cents per $1,000 invested, Weaver said.
"So, one of the challenges we would have is if money were going to go outside the TSP into a private-sector suite of mutual funds, we would have to make sure that those participants realized the cost differential," she said.
Roth TSP going strong
Weaver said the board has been pleased by the robust investments made in the Roth option, which rolled out in May, with staggered launch dates coming later for DoD civilians and the military. The rollout was delayed because various payroll departments across the government needed more time to prepare their systems to process the transactions.
By the end of September, 51,354 federal employees had made Roth TSP contributions, with a total value of $48.7 million.
"So, as we had hoped, there has been a slow and steady uptick in Roth participation," Weaver said.

When the world went straight to hell, humanity needed a scapegoat to judge, to blame . . . to burn.
As an independent witch living off the grid, Jessie Leigh has spent her life running, trying to blend in among the faceless drudges in the rebuilt city. She thought she was finally safe, but now she's been found in a New Seattle strip clubby a hard-eyed man on a mission to destroy her kind.
A soldier of the Holy Order, Silas Smith believes in the cause: trawling the fringes of society for the murderous witches who threaten what's left of the world. Forced into a twisting web of half-truths and lies, he has to stay close to the most sensuous and electrifying woman he has ever seen and manipulate her into leading him to the witch he has to kill: her brother. Silas doesn't know that Jessie's his enemy, only that he wants her, needs her, even as he lies to her . . . and must protect her until his final breath.
About the Author
Born from the genetic mash-up of lesser royalty, storytellers, wanderers, and dreamers, Karina Cooper was destined to be a creative genius. As a child, she moved all over the country like some kind of waifish blond gypsy and thrived in the new cultures her family settled in. When she (finally) grew up, she skipped the whole genius part and fell in love with writing because, really, who doesn't love making things up for a living?
One part romance fanatic, one part total dork, and all imagination, she writes dark and sexy paranormal romance and historical urban fantasy. When she isn't writing, Karina is an airship captain's wife and Steampunk fashionista. She lives in the beautiful and rainy Pacific Northwest with a husband, four cats, two rabbits, the fantasy of a dog, and a passel of adopted gamer geeks.
Praise for Blood of the Wicked: A Dark Mission Novel…
4 and 1/2 stars! "An electrifying, very promising start to the new Dark Mission series. Cooper's world has endless possibilities in her alternate universe where witches...are hunted down for their murderous ways. The characters and plot are expertly woven in with action and steamy romance."
-RT Book Reviews
"Dark, bloody, and violently descriptive, this steamy romance takes readers on an emotionally wrenching, sometimes gruesome journey into a grimly fascinating futuristic world that will draw readers in and leave them wanting more. Compelling and mesmerizing, this is a stellar start to this new series."
-Library Journal

Comments about Caravan Canopy Weight Bags for All Canopies:
I have owned caravan shelters for many years. The problem with my set-up are that the stakes included are sometimes not enough or i will be on asphalt. These weight bags are perfect for those extra windy days when you must set-up and cannot properly secure. easy velcro straps attached to the lower legs and thats it!!!! Set it and forget it. Stop buying a canopy and letting the wind destroy it, with this set, it's not going anywhere.

Access to healthcare
Novartis collaborates with others to help address some of the world's greatest health challenges. To help do that, our corporate responsibility programs help more people secure the healthcare they need, regardless of where they live. We've done this for a long time, largely through philanthropic and not-for-profit programs. Because the number of people in need continues to exceed the capacity of corporate philanthropy, Novartis and other companies are turning to new ways of reaching people in need, by creating Social Ventures – shared value business models that complement philanthropic and zero-profit initiatives.
We concentrate our efforts on controlling and eliminating diseases such as malaria and leprosy, pioneering new business approaches to reach underserved patients, and finding new treatments and adaptive solutions to improve health for people around the world. In 2013, these efforts reached more than 100 million patients.
Every second, Novartis delivers three malaria treatments. Over the past decade, the Novartis Malaria Initiative has become one of the healthcare industry's largest access-to-medicine programs, delivering more than 700 million antimalarial treatments without profit, including 250 million pediatric treatments. Novartis is expanding its commitment by joining charity Malaria No More's Power of One campaign and donating medicines to treat up to 3 million children with malaria through 2015. This donation will match the treatments purchased by the public, doubling their impact.
All leprosy patients in the world can receive free treatment from Novartis. We've extended our collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) to help end leprosy, an ancient disease that carries an intense social stigma. More than 5 million leprosy patients have received free treatment from Novartis through the WHO since 2000.
Novartis will continue to provide free medicines through 2020. To complement this donation and further curb the incidence of leprosy, the Novartis Foundation announced a new strategy to achieve zero transmission of the disease.
Every four seconds, someone is infected with tuberculosis. Yet, despite the loss of millions of lives, it remains one of the most neglected diseases by pharmaceutical companies due to its lack of commercial potential. Sandoz, the division of Novartis that makes generic medicines, has a long history of fighting TB and is the main provider of TB drugs to the World Health Organization.
Noncommunicable diseases
While infectious diseases remain the biggest killers in developing countries, the pattern of disease is changing. For example, sub-Saharan Africa increasingly faces a 'double burden' of disease with a rising prevalence of noncommunicable diseases. Data indicate that people in Africa have the world's highest incidence of elevated blood pressure and the number of strokes is expected to reach epidemic levels in coming years.
While many treatments already exist for these conditions, it's hard to find clear data on how big the problem is. That's due to many factors, including the reality that access to healthcare is restricted for millions of people in Africa due to a lack of physical infrastructure, such as transportation systems, and a lack of capacity within the healthcare system. For example, Africa has two physicians and nine hospital beds per 10 000 people. By contrast, Europe has 33 physicians and 62 beds for every 10 000 people.
To help get medicines to cancer patients in the developing world, we established the first global direct-to-patient access program. The Glivec International Patient Assistance program helps patients receive treatment for two rare cancers. The program has become one of the world's most far-reaching patient assistance programs, active in more than 80 low- to middle-income countries. Our partner, The Max Foundation, also provides patients with emotional support in addition to medicines. The Novartis Oncology Access program provides assistance to patients with other cancers.
Social Ventures
Social ventures build local, sustainable capabilities for healthcare around the world. These programs address societal problems that impact access to healthcare, including the need for education, infrastructure and healthcare distribution. Novartis has social ventures projects in India, Kenya, Vietnam, China and Zambia.

good luck man! Having a nursing degree will be a big draw towards getting you into Med school. So many students nowadays have some sort of masters degree/nursing degree etc. before going to med school. I went the old fashioned route of just going straight after undergrad... I kind of wish I did a masters first though because I didn't end up getting into my first choice schools.

How often does Davis need to wear the boot? Because in practice he doesn't seem to wear it much. I know he's not running and jumping right now but does he have to wear it for a certain amount of hours per day or something?
Probably anytime it wouldn't be a hinderance.
If he used it when shooting, he'd 'learn' to shoot all goofy (booty?).
I had thought I heard he was out of the boot entirely and was doing basic stuff in drills. Just no running and shooting yet.
I hope he's taking this time to continue weight training at least.
That was reported during the week.
Then, he had the boot on at the game.
Putting that in with what I read about rehab (you do the same), I came up with the above.
Monty's comments seem to not contradict this at least. Photos or comments indicating a boot after practice or whatnot would help us understand.
Only a 26 second video but you can see Davis at the end all dressed out for practice and what not.
Just shows him laughing with a ball in his hand but no boot or anything so that's cool, like Jen Hale reported.

We are devastated to report that a three-month-old Pit Bull puppy named Joey was thrown from a car in Brentwood, Long Island, on Saturday. A witness found the tiny 10-pound pup in a plastic bag near the Sagtikos State Parkway, covered in fleas and crying out for help. Joey suffered three broken vertebrae in his neck and is recovering at the Veterinary Medical Center of Long Island.
The ASPCA is offering a reward of $15,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction in this case. This reward is in addition to a $5,000 reward offered by the Suffolk County SPCA. We are also providing a $10,000 grant to the Veterinary Medical Center to offset some of the costs of treating and caring for Joey.
"We were both outraged and saddened to hear about this disturbing case of violent abuse, and the callousness that was demonstrated by those responsible," says Matt Bershadker, Senior Vice President of the ASPCA's Anti-Cruelty Group. "While our ultimate hope is that these types of heinous acts never occur, this is a message that cruelty toward animals will not be tolerated. We are pleased to be in a position to help those who are helping Joey."
If you have information related to Joey's case, please contact the Suffolk County SPCA by calling (631) 382-7722.
Animal cruelty is a crime in every state—if you see something, call 911. Please join our battle against animal cruelty today!
The monster that did that should deserve the same! I can't understand how human being is capable of doing something like this to an innocent animal! How about you MONSTER being thrown out from a driving car in a plastic bag? Hope one day you are going to be sorry and feel such pain that you caused to your own loving dog! ASPCA thank you for your hard work and your care for animals in need! Joey, I wish you a caring, loving home you deserve!
That's just awful may God be with poor Joey an his journey of recovery..Hope an pray they find who's responsible for doing something so careless.Prayers are with u Joey poor little guy :(
this kind of treatment toward animals is un called for. I could only hope the person who did this is caught. I hope they are punished to the fullest by the state. Maybe someone should break some of there bones
Hell can't be hot enough for some people! Terrible! Get well Joey!
Maybe they threw him from the car because they needed to get rid of the evidence quickly? Dog fighters afraid of getting caught? Poor baby! I hope they find these monsters, because if this is what they do to their dogs I shudder to think about what they do to their children or neighbors! I hope Joey makes a full recovery and can put this behind him in a loving home-what a loving, sweet face!
Evil is the absence of concience, remorse, care, or love, but with the presence of unreasoning malace. There is no place for it in this world or any other, no need for a balance . In people, it is born of nurture, more then nature, some ideoligies indorce these behaviors. I feel. We need to stamp out these ideoligies, and ignorances.
Sending love and prayers from Connecticut for a speedy recovery. May your forever, safe and loving home be waiting for you.
Oh no little guy - you didn't deserve this. I'm sorry this happened to you. Just know that you are in caring & loving hands now. Stay strong Joey! I have you in my heart & prayers.
So heart breaking :( Why just not find someone who would be willing to take him...... I honestly find it hard to believe we have that low caliber of people with absolutely No brain in that cavity that sets upon their shoulders walking around amongst us. These poor animals do not have a Voice, WE ARE THEIR VOICE!!! LORD RESCUE AND PROTECT THOSE WHO ARE ABUSED AND ABANDONED, SHOW ABSOLUTELY NOOOOO MERCY FOR THOSE WHO CHOOSE TO ABUSE!!!
Unbelievable that these kind of people exist to abuse a poor little animal. I hope and pray that they are found.

|Cindy Scott named 2005 ACH Employee of the Year
Cindy Scott was named "Employee of the Year" at the annual Employee Recognition Banquet, held recently at All Children's Hospital. Cindy was selected from the twelve "Employees of the Month" for 2005. She works in the Post Surgical area of the hospital known as "4 South West" as an RNII, and has been with the hospital since 2001.
A patient's family nominated Cindy for her "Service Excellence" and the care she provided to their son who suffered severe trauma to his leg due to a lawn mower accident. From check-in to check-out at All Children's, the parents said the care they received far exceeded their expectations. Cindy credits her Director, Gina Yarbrough, for providing amazing leadership and impeccable guidelines that promote high standards of care.
A native Floridian, Cindy received her Nursing Degree from St. Petersburg College. In her spare time, Cindy likes to draw, paint, sew and cook.

(NewsUSA) - Parents know that the best way to instill a love of reading in a child is to read to them early and often. Unfortunately, this does not guarantee an avid book lover. Nor does it guarantee that a child will be able to read well.
That's because children learn differently, experts say. Some need visual experiences, while others respond to auditory cues. Still others need a hands-on approach.
Despite parents' best efforts, however, sometimes children continue to struggle to make sense of words on a page. So, what's a concerned (but frustrated) parent to do?
"Children's reading problems are rooted in how they process information," says educator David Fowler, M. Ed.
Fowler likens a child's mind to a computer, noting that their mind either "processes information quickly and accurately or misinterprets and disorganizes it."
To this end, reading programs that use technology can be an invaluable resource for both kids and parents by retraining how the brain processes information.
To ease parents' worries, Fowler underscores that the problem does not lie with a child's intelligence, but rather that the child's mind is only working at half of it's true potential.
"This is simply because the learning patterns they've adopted prevent them from reading faster and comprehending more," he says.

Anarchist News
DOOM, OOMedia, and the struggle for middle-class respectability and political legitimacy
As we mark the anniversary of OPD's gratuitously brutal clearing of the Plaza, it's obvious that the demoralizing effects of state repression have taken their toll on everyone involved in Occupy Oakland. Long-established left-liberals and their newbie acolytes, who merely paid lip service to the more radical aspects of the reclamation of public space, have reverted to their instinctive position: polite pseudo-opposition, which means first and foremost a respect for capitalism and those who protect it. How else are these self-described progressives to make themselves known as politically legitimate actors, worthy of acknowledgement and recognition by powerbrokers looking for the next generation of the managers of revolt? DOOM and the OO Media Committee have finally made their true intentions obvious: to drive an irreversible wedge between pro- and anti-capitalists, between good and bad protesters, between politicians and those who understand they can only represent themselves.
"Occupy Anarchism": Musings on Prehistories, Present (Im)Perfects & Future (Im)Perfects
I wrote the following essay for the anthology We Are Many: Reflections on Movement Strategy from Occupation to Liberation (AK Press, 2012), edited by Kate Khatib, Margaret Killjoy, and Mike McGuire, and encourage you to pick up a copy of this hefty collection for the approximately fifty contributions, including insightful pieces by many good comrades. I'm particularly excited to share the pages with some of my friends: Josh MacPhee, Ryan Harvey, Andy Cornell, Chris Dixon, Koala Largess, George Caffentzis, and Team Colors! Thanks to Kate and Mike for giving me permission to release my essay into the world so soon into this book's printed life, since they, like me, see all the essays as tools/weapons in the struggle for freedom.
I hope my partial, open-ended, experimental musings shake up your thinking a bit and maybe make you smile, shed a tear, get angry, and/or recall Occupy from angles you'd forgotten. More to the point, I wrote this piece as inward self-reflection to shake up my own thinking about this past year, but also to spark dialogue and debate, among anarchists especially, about our relation to, role in, mistakes and possible achievements within the occupy movement/moment. Dig in, share, engage with it, make up your own prehistory or future (im)perfects.

Halloween on Wall Street - Bring Mask!
Hey anons, goblins, ghouls, ghosts and hallowed party-goers,
Looks like on the eve of the election there's going to one hell of a party on Wall Street, one on Capitol Hill and hundreds more in front of banks and other prime locations all over the land.
"We all just need a good night off, to relax and have fun."
Invite your friends, invite your enemies … bring back the spirit of all Hallows' Eve by honoring the dead and giving those on Wall Street, Capitol Hill and our fr-enemies at the big banks … A GOOD SPOOK!
for the wild,
Occupy Oakland RIP (10/10/11-10/25/12)
It would be fitting for the last action of Occupy Oakland to be a return to Oscar Grant Plaza and the planting of one tent. But the slogan on the side of the tent should mourn our dead friends and Occupy Oakland itself.
Movements come into existence and then recede or end. Somewhere in the U.S. there is undoubtedly an outpost of the Temperance Society, which was a world-wide movement for over a century, but is now meaningless . When a movement or organization doesn't recognize that it has reached its endpoint, it becomes as welcome as a rotting corpse. Smell one once and you would know what we mean.
The evidence of the end of Occupy Oakland is not this proclamation; others have already pronounced it dead before now. The evidence is that the real work of Occupy Oakland continues in spite of the public spectacle. The housing organizing, the labor solidarity group, the anti-repression group and others can no longer pretend to be under the control or direction of the General Assembly, because that body doesn't exist as a place where serious discussion or, more importantly, decision-making can occur.
In-fighting among factions, identity issues mark Occupy Oakland first anniversary (Analysis)
A year ago, when Occupy Oakland began, it seemed like the beginnings of a new grassroots political movement, uniting social, economic and institutional justice movements under one banner.
Twelve months later - on the anniversary of the Oct. 25, 2011, police raid on Occupy's downtown encampment - the movement has become a mucked-up mess, smeared by in-fighting and finger-pointing, which has overshadowed its larger goals.
In the past few weeks, several Occupy-affiliated factions have issued pointed communiqués through various websites and blogs, both official and unofficial. Instead of focusing their energies on targeting an unjust system, what we've been seeing is — cue the banjoes — dueling propaganda aimed at internal divisions within the movement itself. The irony is so thick, you could cut it with a knife.
On Oct. 9, Oakland rapper Boots Riley, one of OO's more visible faces, wrote a Facebook post denouncing vandalism, which was widely circulated through the blogosphere. Riley stated, "The use of the blac bloc tactic in all situations is not useful. As a matter of fact, in situations such as the one we have in Oakland, its repeated use has become counter-revolutionary."

Immutable objects are ones which don't change after initial creation. Such objects are frequently desirable because they are simple and can be safely shared even in multi-threading contexts. This makes them great for functional and concurrent scenarios. The rules for creating such objects are well-known:
- No mutators (methods that modify internal state)
- Class must be final
- Fields must be private and final
- Defensive copying of mutable components
- equals(), hashCode() and toString() must be implemented in terms of the fields if you want to compare your objects or use them as keys in e.g. maps
Instead of writing a very long Java or Groovy class mimicking this immutability behavior, Groovy lets you just write an immutable class as follow:
All the boiler-plate code is generated at compile-time for you! The example shows that to instantiate such immutable coordinates, you can use one of the two constructors created by the transformation, one taking a map whose keys are the properties to set to the values associated with those keys, and the other taking the values of the properties as parameters. The assert also shows that equals() was implemented and allows us to properly compare such immutable objects.
You can have a look at the details of the implementation of this transformation. For the record, the Groovy example above using the @Immutable transformation is over 50 lines of equivalent Java code.

How Green is Bamboo Flooring?
June 30, 2011 in Bamboo Forestry Series, FAQ series, How Green is Bamboo?
To understand why bamboo flooring is a "green" choice, one must first understand a bit about the bamboo from which it is made. Smith&Fong Co. makes its bamboo flooring, plywood, and veneers from Moso bamboo (Pyllostachys hedrocycla pubescens).
There are well over a thousand species of bamboo. Each of varying heights, thicknesses, and applicable uses. Out of all of the types of bamboo, bamboo flooring, veneers, and plywood are all made out of Moso. It's thickness in diameter, overall hardness, widespread availability and extreme height make it one of the most commercially viable species for construction. Moso bamboo, didn't get the nickname "timber bamboo" without reason!
Interesting fact – bamboo isn't actually a wood, it's a grass.
Moso is an excellent candidate for building materials. It grows quickly (as in 70 feet in 3 months!), and is fully mature and ready to harvest in 5 years. Compare that to 20 to 120 years for various hardwoods.* Moso bamboo, when at maturity is incredibly strong. Because it is such a hefty species – very tall, hard, and quite thick, it is, hands down, a great choice for flooring.
Because Moso grows so quickly, 20% of the bamboo forest canopy can be harvested annually leaving behind 80%. Over a five year period, 100% of the forest can be sustainably harvested. An added assurance that the canopy will be left intact — only mature bamboo culms (poles) are heavy enough to get a good price at market. It isn't advantageous to cut too often or too young, which benefits the farmer and the environment. An extra advantage to this system is that bamboo does not need to be replanted once harvested. It regenerates annually.
So we know that Moso bamboo is rapidly renewable and super strong, let's consider other factors that make this a superb choice as your current or future floor.
In its native environment, Moso bamboo doesn't need irrigation or fertilizers. Since this particular species (and so many others) is naturally resistant to pests, it doesn't need pesticides. That means no pesticide run off or other chemicals are involved in the growth process.
Interesting fact – According to the World Wildlife Fund, Bamboo can sequester up to 70% more carbon per year than a hardwood forest.
Rapidly renewable bamboo is one of many reasons Smith&Fong Co.'s Plyboo brand bamboo flooring is a great choice for your home. Check back next time to learn about FSC® Certified flooring and why Formaldehyde Free matters as we continue the exploration about "How green is bamboo flooring?"

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. — The Avoid the 6 El Dorado County DUI Campaign is reminding football fans watching this year's Super Bowl game Sunday to designate a driver before Sunday's kickoff.
The DUI task force will deploy special roving DUI patrols Sunday in several communities throughout the area looking to stop and arrest drivers who are impaired by alcohol or drugs, according to a Monday statement.
The DUI patrols are, in addition to regularly scheduled patrol officers, looking for signs of an intoxicated driver.
"We're reminding everyone that real Super Bowl Fans Don't Let Fans Drive Drunk," said South Lake Tahoe police Sgt. Shannon Laney in the statement. "We are asking all party hosts and bar owners to take extra good care of designated sober drivers this year. Drafting a designated driver this weekend will be the correct play call for a sure win."
The DUI patrols are funded by the California Office of Traffic Safety which encourages people to report drunk drivers by calling 911.
