A sad Mammoth with a Round Table!

Decisions in Winchester
Although very very cold outside, we had a snug and warm night in Georgie. Having packed away we programmed the female continangcy and set off for Portsmouth.
Woolly says – I was a very sad Mammoth, poor Ian drove round and round Portsmouth so I could tick off the Marie Rose (not a sauce apparently!!!) and we could find no where to park Georgie, both Jo and I felt very gloomy as we had been looking forward to this part of the trip, it was not to be, although Ian said I could tick it off in my I Spy book as I caught a glimpse of the Golden Hind on our second tour of the city, not a Motorhome city. Feeling down hearted but not defeated we set off towards Winchester to seek out Arthur's table.
We were very sad but it is a fact that we cannot get everywhere we want to given our size, we solved the problem easily in Winchester by parking in the Motorhome parking area of Park and Ride and for £3.00 GBP we were parked for the day and our bus fare was included – good deal.
The Great Hall
Woolly says – we wrapped up warm and caught the bus into the city, our first stop was The Old Court House, not to look at but for a warm up of coffee and sausage sandwiches! Fully revived we set off to the Great Hall, a most impressive building on the outside but even better on the inside. Mounted on the wall was the table I had been seeking, King Arthurs, WOW! Weighing in at over a tonne it was wonderful to behold and I could imagine myself (Woollylot, Knight of the Round Table) sitting there in the old days passing the roast boar and chatting to Lancelot and Arthur over a casual supper! Following our find I was raring to go and find out more about Winchester and its history. To help with my quest we made our way to the city museum, for free, we found loads of information on the Roman and Anglo Saxon roots of the city as well as artefacts including a nearly complete Roman Mosaic. Famous for the contributions that King Alfred made we kept finding reminders of him and his contribution to the city. Outside the museum we found the most
interesting bollards, yes BOLLARDS, all painted in different colours and copies of pictures. I found it very hard to choose my favourite so Jo humoured me and let me have my picture taken on some of the ones I liked best. We then scuttled out of the cold and headed inside Winchester Cathedral – another tick in my I Spy book!!! Having had a minster on that site since 648 AD this is surely the most impressive in size and design to have been built in this area with some parts dating back to the 12
and 13
century, with its immensely beautifully decorated high ceilings it was pretty amazing and, only being a small mammoth, it was HUGE in comparison to me! We found the grave of Jane Austin, one of Britain's best female authors as well as many incredibly decorated graves of former bishops of Winchester, St Swithern and many remembrance plagues to the armed forces. We found our way to the crypt and although a foot under water, I thought it was quite spooky! The sculpture that we could see added to the spooky feel and I was quite glad to get out. Ian told me the
King Arthur's table
story of William Walker, a diver, who was the first person to dive on land!!! Using the old fashioned diving helmets of the day he is credited with saving the Cathedral with his own two hands between 1906 and 1911, by underpinning the building due to high levels of water under it – what a dude!
It was a very impressive place and I was very glad we had seen it, whilst Woolly was in an inquiring mood we walked round to Wolversley Castle, unfortunately this was closed but we were able to see the Roman walls that still survive.
Woolly says – by now my trunk was starting to freeze over so we decided to head for a warm up via the Old Mill (National Trust £4.60 GBP per adult), we flashed our cards and entered. Well, the mill wheel itself was quite good but other than counting the cobwebs everywhere I can't say I was very impressed. Beating a hasty retreat we picked up a couple of bits, a sink plunger for Georgie (lucky girl), a couple of T Shirts and some more thermal socks for Jo (Primark – sorry Zoe!!!) and
Winchester Cathederal
we found ourselves in the Royal Oak, a really cute pub with lots of small rooms to get lost in. Once Jo had found me we had a bite to eat before setting off to find our bus back to Georgie.
Three miles down the road through a couple of tight roads and serious bends we arrived at The Chestnut Horse, Easton, a beautiful old pub with a roaring fire and the warmest welcome we could want. Made to feel right at home, Woolly settled down in front of the fire and seemed to be dreaming of the Knights of old, I just wish he didn't snore so loudly!

The downside of Motorhome travel
Sylvia and I spent the month of August last year travelling around the UK in a motorhome we rented. It was a bit smaller than yours in length but just as wide. Some of the roads were downright scary they were so narrow - especially when another vehicle was coming the other way. Down near Rye I nearly got into a brawl with a french lorry driver who refused to move over so we could get passed each other. I couldn't move as I was jammed against a brick wall but he had all of the footpath on his side he could move on to. After he threw his arms in the air a few times and swore at me, I gave him a mouthful of french telling him to get up on to the f..n footpath and stop blocking the traffic. He was so startled that he did it straightaway without comment! Finding parking places can be a problem too and, though most of the van parks are comfortable, they are often so far away from town that it is difficult to do the tourist bit. We usually ended up paying for a taxi or getting a bus but it was an added expense. I was going to refer you to "The Greyhaired Nomads" blog but I see you already follow them. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip. John

So glad your enjoying our travels, Woolly gets very excited when we get comments, bless him. Having read your message yesterday and then lost all internet (a travelling hazard), we seem to have spent today trying to drive into the hedgerow to let traffic past us with no acknowledgment of any kind, very annoying and difficult given our size. We are looking forward to our next part of the trip now with only 4 sleeps for Woolly until we arrive in France, we love the fact that everyday is different, sometimes a challange but different. Are you planning any more Motorhome trips?

- This is the second Red X from Teen Titans. (This Red X has an unknown identity and is not Dick Grayson/Robin.)
- The Red Hood is the animated version from Batman : Under The Red Hood.
- Standard equipment for both and all feats from their animated series/movie.
- Win by death or KO.
- Morals on and in character.
- No BFR.
Are you reddy? Hahaha. Okay I'm sorry that was a horrible pun.
Red X
Red Hood
Info :
Just a bit for info for both of them :
Red Hood - Jason was shown to be able to stalemate Batman for an extended period of time before his prepped attacks failed and his anger took the better of him. When he is calm though he deadlier and focused. He is ruthless and doesn't hesitate to kill when he has the chance. Red Hood has shown to have the following equipment in the movie :
- Numerous Arrangements of Pistols (He was shown using Glocks and had Desert Eagles at the end of the movie)
- Sharp Knife (Capable of cutting Batman's wires)
- Helmet (extremely protective and Jason manually made it explode)
- Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launcher (tried to kill Black Mask)
- Crowbar (to mimic his method of death on Joker)
Red X - Red X is an acrobatic and skilled martial artist capable of stalemating Dick Grayson in Teen Titans and defeat him numerous times. Red X didn't kill at all in the show, but is an anti-hero and is shown to KO numerous opponents. He also held off the entire Teen Titans and nearly defeated them with his suit's numerous X-weapons, including :
- X-Wristblade (An X-shaped wristblade)
- Explosive X (An X shaped blast that explodes on contact)
- Adhesive Restraint (X-shaped blast that was highly sticky)
- X-Shuriken (An X-shaped shuriken)
- Constrictive Restraint (Much like the Adhesive Restraint but constricting)
- Electric X (An X-shaped electric blast)
- X-Portal (An X that made a portal to the other side of a wall)
- Xenothium belt (Belt that holds gadgets and can turn him temporarily invisible)

I thought this was delicious and a hit at the BBQ I brought it too. The only changes I made was to use 1/2 the greens simply because I ran out of room on my platter and I used finely crushed almonds instead of sesame seeds. I didn't have the seeds. Lastly I rolled the goat cheese since cutting it didn't work.
Excellent salad! I have made this for several different dinner guests and get rave reviews. I thought the rounds were hard to work with so instead, I rolled the goat cheese into little balls and coated them with the herb/seasoning mixture -- works very well.
It was alright, a bit like the Austro-Prussian War with Italy and Germany too involved in something they should stay out of (2 salads in one). I was a big fan of the basil mixed in with the greens; the dressing complemented the bitter-sweet leafy goodness.
I think this salad is very good and not as labor intensive as it appears. I did find the vinaigrette a little bland and will try to find something else. Since many of these ingredients are from a nicoise I may try a lemon dressing. I also prefer crispy warm goat cheese so I added the seasoning for the goat cheese to some panko. I dipped the goat cheese rounds in some beaten egg white and then the panko. I chilled them and then sauted them in a little canola oil. Very good.
The greens overwhelmed the taste of any other ingredient. The goat cheese rounds with their outer coating were gross. The only good thing about this dish was the potatoes, olives, and beans. All in all, not a great dish.
This was terrific - works well as salad meal. I couldn't find the cheese log, so we just had some goat cheese on crackers - next time, I'll try the rounds!
This was terrific - works well as salad meal. I couldn't find the cheese log, so we just had some goat cheese on crackers - next time, I'll try the rounds!
Excellent salad that everyone at the table loved. I left out goat cheese rounds to save time, but just plain goat cheese would've been good. Left out basil, which would've been too much. Everything else was perfect!
This is a fresh, flavorful, elegant salad! I used it as a substantial side but could easily see having it as a vegetarian summer dinner. The goat cheese rounds were an amazing complement to the rest of the salad.
Wonderful salad. Made this for a formal dinner with only meat and a veggie on plate. The perfect complement.

ServiceCEO Partners with Cleaning for Heroes by Donating Software and Offering Discount to its Participating Residential Field Service Companies
BOSTON, Aug. 18 /PRNewswire/ — ServiceCEO announced that it is donating scheduling and billing software to Cleaning for Heroes to support their mission of providing free residential cleaning services to elderly and disabled veterans. In addition, ServiceCEO is offering a 10% discount on its software to cleaning companies who join the Cleaning for Heroes network.
Cleaning for Heroes was founded in 2010 by Anne M. Aldridge, the owner of Ocean State House Cleaning of Rhode Island. Anne was inspired to link cleaning services like hers with disabled veterans that needed cleaning services but were unable to afford them. Within four months of the launch of this ground-breaking program, the Cleaning for Heroes network of maid services were spanning the nation, even reaching into Canada. On July 19, 2010, they opened the program to involve a wider scope of residential services. The program now incorporates 24 additional field service industries providing services like carpet cleaning, air duct cleaning, mold remediation, pest control, lawn care, and simple home repair services.
Torrey Shannon serves as the Executive Director of the Cleaning for Heroes program. Torrey is a well-known advocate and public speaker within the veteran community taking particular interest in issues pertaining to disabled veterans and their care. She is also the spouse of a severely-injured combat veteran. She explains, "The residual effect of providing free household services can improve the health and overall well-being of the recipients and their families, allowing the veterans more time to focus on their healing, family bonding, community involvement and productivity." From her unique perspective as a former maid service owner, she adds, "In many cases, the assistance given by Cleaning for Heroes to promote a healthy healing environment can prevent recurring hospitalizations or placement into a nursing home. By keeping the veterans in their own homes, this helps maintain the dignity of the veteran and saves taxpayers the cost of absorbing any additional medical care given by military treatment facilities."
Anne Aldridge, founder of Cleaning for Heroes, shares the practicality of using ServiceCEO for their organization. "ServiceCEO Web Edition software is a product we will never outgrow. This program enables us to work from multiple office locations in different states and allows us the flexibility to operate our program to help everyone we can, wherever they live. We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of ServiceCEO to help us in our mission."
"We're especially pleased to be associated with Cleaning for Heroes," said ServiceCEO Chief Executive Officer Jim Triandiflou. "Service businesses have always been at the forefront of giving back to the communities they serve, and I can't think of anything more urgent or worthy than trying to maintain the quality of life for those who fought to preserve ours."
Screened and approved providers who join the Cleaning for Heroes network agree to provide free services every month to eligible veterans. Each veteran receives an average of four months of ongoing household services. Each business that joins is given three options to "pledge" a comfortable amount of donated services per year. It costs nothing to join and there are no membership fees. Each business is given a variety of free marketing tools to help promote their participation in the program. The ServiceCEO 10% discount extended to network providers is just another added benefit for those who join.
To make a tax-free donation to Cleaning for Heroes, or if you are a service provider interested in participating in the program, visit their website at www.cleaningforheroes.org. For more information on ServiceCEO Web Edition, visit www.serviceceo.com
About Cleaning For Heroes
Founded in 2010, Cleaning for Heroes is a not-for-profit organization that serves elderly and disabled veterans as well as first responders who were injured in the line of duty. Based on the same concept that our nation's heroes volunteered to serve their country and communities, Cleaning for Heroes is a volunteer effort that brings donors, providers and recipients together. Services are provided by over 100 nationwide independent businesses, with many new providers added every day. To date, the program has received provider pledges totaling over $250,000 toward free services. To learn more about their program and the veterans they serve, please join them on Facebook and Twitter or visit their website and blog.

Read this first thing this morning. Had to share. Enjoy.
The moon is most happy when it is full
And the sun always looks like a perfectly minted gold coin that was just
Placed in flight
By God's playful kiss
And so many varieties of fruit hang plump and round from
Branches that seem like a sculptor's hands
I see the beautiful curve of a pregnant belly
Shaped by a soul within
And the earth itself and the planets and the spheres
I have gotten a hint
There is something about circles The Beloved likes.
Mothering my sweet preschool boy and my new arrival

Exploratory Analysis of Social E-health Behavior
Date: May 2014
Creator: Acadia, Spencer
Description: Extant literature has documented well that people seek health information via the internet as patients and consumers. Much less, however, is known about interaction and creation behaviors in the development of new online health information and knowledge. More specifically, generalizable sociodemographic data on who engages in this online health behavior via social media is lacking in the sociological literature. The term "social e-health" is introduced to emphasize the difference between seeking behaviors and interaction and creation behaviors. A 2010 dataset of a large nationally representative and randomly sampled telephone survey made freely available from the Pew Research Center is used to examine social e-health behavior according to respondents' sociodemographics. The dependent variable of social e-health behavior is measured by 13 survey questions from the survey. Gender, race, ethnicity, age, education, and income are used as independent variables. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the odds of engagement in social e-health behavior based on the sociodemographic predictors. The social determinants of health and digital divide frameworks are used to help explain why socioeconomic variances exist in social e-health behavior. The findings of the current study suggest that predictable sociodemographic patterns along the dimensions of gender, race, age, education, and income ...

Family Structure and Marijuana Use Among Adolescents
Date: May 2014
Creator: Aguilar, Jamie M.
Description: Family structure as a predictive variable of juvenile delinquency has been studied for the last hundred years. This relationship originated due to societal belief that divorce was detrimental to adolescents. Due to the changing societal roles in the United States, family structure has been changing. More children are growing up in non-intact families, such as single-parent households, households with stepparents, cohabitating families, and households without a parent present. To study the effect family structure has on juvenile delinquency, researchers have utilized social control theory, differential association, self-control theory and general strain theory to conceptualize variables to explain why family structure influences delinquent behavior. A review of previous literature on this topic indicates that living in intact households, which are households with two biological parents who are married, have, on average, the lowest rates of delinquency. This thesis investigates the relationship between family structure and lifetime marijuana use among eighth and tenth grade adolescents in the United States through the use of secondary data analysis of Monitoring the Future Study, 2012. The results provide support for the relationship between family structure and lifetime marijuana use.

Routine Leisure Activities and Adolescent Marijuana Use: Moderating Effects of Family Structure
Date: May 2010
Creator: Aksu, Gokhan
Description: How adolescents spend their time is a crucial predictor of their engagement in delinquency. Activities with peers away from direct supervision of adults are of concern as more opportunities and motivation to use marijuana exist in such situations. However, adolescents may vary in their propensity to use marijuana when faced the opportunity. Especially adolescents living with a single parent may have a higher propensity compared to those from two-parent households to use marijuana due to reduced parental monitoring and increased peer attachment. This thesis investigates the moderating effects of family structure on the routine leisure activities and adolescent marijuana use relationship, using data from Monitoring the Future Study 2007, 12th Grade Survey. The results provide partial support for the moderating effects.

Emotional Health, Well-Being, And Religion as Quest
Date: August 2000
Creator: Alexander, Kimberly A.
Description: This study examined the relationship between the religious orientation quest and well-being using the 1998 General Social Survey. In addition to the religious orientation quest the extrinsic and intrinsic religious orientations were also investigated. Analysis of the data indicated that there was a slight negative association between quest and general well-being, while also demonstrating a strong positive association between quest and inner peace. These results underscore the supposition that quest is an orientation that is complex and ultimately deserves further attention.

AIDS and Aging: Are the Eldery Becoming the New At-Risk Population?
Date: August 1994
Creator: Allen, Annette Marie
Description: This dissertation breaks new ground. It examines the perceptions of older adults towards AIDS prevention. Using the National Health Interview Survey, 1988: AIDS Knowledge and Attitudes Supplement, a modified Health Belief Model is developed. Despite the low number of older adults 55+ with AIDS, some extenuating circumstances increase their risk of AIDS contraction. Older adults have lower levels of knowledge about AIDS, weaker immune systems and receive more blood transfusions. Societal influences include educational neglect at the hands of physicians, healthcare workers and social service personnel. The first stage of the dissertation involved establishing older adults as an at-risk population through an extensive literature review. Next, the data was described utilizing frequencies, correlations and factor analysis. Frequencies clearly indicated that older adults in the data set had low levels of AIDS knowledge and did not view themselves at risk for AIDS contraction. Correlations between the variables were minimal. A modified Health Belief Model was developed and tested. Multiple regression determined that minimal variation in the two dependent variables, "Perceived Effectiveness of Effective Methods to Prevent AIDS Contraction" and "Perceived Effectiveness of Ineffective Methods to Prevent AIDS Contraction" was accounted for by the independent variables. Although F ratios allowed rejection of ...

Retiring in a Foreign Land: Health Care Issues of US Retirees in Mexico
Date: December 2008
Creator: Amin, Iftekhar
Description: This research examined the health care related issues of the American seniors retiring in Mexico. Data for this study were collected through in-person questionnaire surveys and case studies. Findings of this study indicate that US seniors retiring in Mexico are predominantly non-Hispanic whites, married, and more likely to be college graduates. This study challenges the general perception that US seniors move to foreign countries is "amenity-led." The case studies clearly show that many US seniors move there because they are afraid that with reduced income and increased health care needs they would not be able to maintain the same lifestyle after retirement in the US. Climate and the slower pace of life are two other big attractions for seniors' to move to Mexico. A major finding of this study is age, gender, education, use of Medicare for medical care coverage, and chronic medical condition are significant predictors of US seniors' health behavior and health outcomes in Mexico. The policy implications of the findings have been discussed.

Medication adherence among the elderly: A test of the effects of the Liberty 6000 technology.
Date: December 2005
Creator: August, Suzanne M.
Description: Medication adherence is a formidable challenge for the elderly who may have several prescribed medications while dealing with limited incomes and declining health. The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the Liberty 6000, an automated capsule and tablet dispenser that provides proper medication dosages and is intended to encourage and track medication adherence. Seven focus groups were assembled; these comprised 49 men and women ages 65 to 98 years of Black, Anglo, and Hispanic descent who met the following criteria: living independently or semi-independently, had suffered one or more impairments, and were taking at least three prescription medications. Each focus group session lasted 90 minutes and was tape-recorded and transcribed verbatim, resulting in about 2,600 lines of text. Each question was designed to be open-ended to avoid introducing any bias that might influence the response. The Health Belief Model conceptually guided the study that addressed perceptions of illness susceptibility and severity, barriers, benefits, and cues to action associated with medication adherence. Main benefits of taking medications included avoiding inherited illnesses (or tendencies for illnesses), and reducing illness symptoms. Barriers to taking medications included forgetting, dexterity problems, and high cost. Benefits of the proposed intervention included reminding, caregiver notification, ...

An Analysis of the Opinions of University Students about the Current Situation of the Headscarf Dispute in Turkey
Date: December 2008
Creator: Aydemir, Dilek
Description: This study examined the opinions of university students about the current situation of the headscarf dispute on the wearing of headscarves in Turkey. The influence of gender, the level of secularism, socioeconomic status and encounter with women wearing headscarves on opinions about the wearing of headscarves were analyzed in this study. The sample of this study was composed of 400 university students among whom there were 240 female and 160 male students. Moreover, the sample comprised university students from 50 universities from Turkey. The results indicated that the level of secularism and encounter with women wearing headscarves were distinguished as two determining factors of the diverse opinions of the university students on the topic. No association was found between the perceptions of university students about the issue and the independent variables of gender and socioeconomic status.

Instructor immediacy and presence in the online learning environment: An investigation of relationships with student affective learning, cognition, and motivation.
Date: December 2008
Creator: Baker, Credence
Description: Bivariate correlation was used to examine possible relationships between instructor immediacy and instructor presence, and a statistically significant correlation was found. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine whether the linear combination of instructor immediacy and presence caused significant variance in student affective learning, cognition, and motivation. For all three of the latter dependent variables, the linear combination of instructor immediacy and presence was found to cause statistically significant variance. However, although the overall regression models were significant in all three tests, instructor immediacy was not found to be a significant individual predictor for causing variance in affective learning, cognition, or motivation, whereas instructor presence was found to be a significant individual predictor of all three. Finally, factorial ANOVA revealed that, for perceptions of instructor immediacy, only classification and course type were found to explain significant variance, with undergraduate students in asynchronous courses reporting significantly lower instructor immediacy. For perceptions of instructor presence, graduate students tended to rate their instructors as having higher presence than did undergraduate students, and students in synchronous courses tended to rate their instructors as having higher presence than did students in asynchronous courses.

American Indian Worldviews, Risk Perceptions and Disaster Planning: an Exploratory Study
Date: December 2013
Creator: Bales, Rodney A.
Description: It is commonly assumed that when confronted with an imminent hazard that people will react rationally, and prepare for, or at least attempt to avoid, danger from pending disasters. However, this conventional wisdom is not as evident as it appears. People prepare for, react to, or take social action to avoid hazards when they perceive the risk of danger to be threatening enough to warrant action, providing one has the will, insight and resources to do so. However, not all people perceive risks similarly. Risk is perceived differently by different people which affects risk perception and responses to hazards. This dissertation explores the relationships between American Indian worldviews, risk perceptions and disaster planning. To carry out this research 28 American Indians were interviewed. The sample consists of 14 American Indians residing in a rural are on the northern plains and 14 urban American Indians. The results only partially support that worldview is linked to risk perception and subsequent disaster planning. Other factors found to relate to risk perception and disaster planning for this non-representative sample of American Indians include various forms of social vulnerability.

Around the Region: Ex-Bruins coach Burns finally earns Hall call
By NEHJ Staff
Pat Burns, who coached the Boston Bruins for three-plus seasons, led the New Jersey Devils to the Stanley Cup in 2003 and died of cancer in 2010 at the age of 58, was posthumously elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame last month.
Burns was part of a six-member class that includes former standout players Dominik Hasek, Mike Modano, Peter Forsberg and Rob Blake, and former referee Bill McCreary.
The men will be inducted Nov. 17 in Toronto.
Many feel that Burns' honor was overdue. He has been eligible since 2007 and will be inducted as a builder.
He won three Jack Adams Awards and 501 regular-season games (16th all-time). Twice he guided teams to the Stanley Cup Final, losing in 1989 with the Canadiens and winning in 2003 with the Devils. Burns also turned around the Toronto Maple Leafs in the early 1990s and led them to back-to-back conference finals appearances in 1993 and '94. In Boston, where he coached from 1997-2000, he compiled a record of 105-97-46.
"On behalf of the Boston Bruins I would like to congratulate the family of Pat Burns on his election into the Hockey Hall of Fame," said Bruins president Cam Neely in a statement. "Pat had an outstanding career in hockey, and we are very happy to see him rewarded with this great honor."
N.H. hall to add seven
New Hampshire Legends of Hockey announced its 2014 Hall of Fame class last month, one that includes a pair of former Boston Bruins who went on to coaching success.
Former UNH and Bruins forward Bruce Crowder of Nashua, and former Bruins great Rick Middleton of Hampton, who coached the U.S. Sled Hockey Team to an improbable gold medal at the Salt Lake City Paralympic Games in 2002, are among the seven inductees.
Also being inducted as coaches are longtime Phillips Exeter Academy coach Bill Dennehy and Bruce Parker (Berlin). Players being inducted are Mark Evans of Brentwood, Steve Murphy of Penacook and former Hanover High School star Steve Shirreffs.
The Hall of Fame Induction is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 26, at the Grappone Convention Center in Concord.
Bednar to coach Falcons
The Columbus Blue Jackets signed former Springfield Falcons head coach Brad Larsen to a multiyear contract to serve as an assistant coach on Todd Richards' staff and named Jared Bednar head coach of the Falcons.
Larsen guided the Falcons to a 92-45-15 record and a pair of Northeast Division titles in two seasons behind the bench. The Falcons posted the first 100-point campaign in franchise history in 2013-14, finishing with the AHL's third-best record at 47-23-1-5.
Bednar, 42, has served as an assistant coach with the Falcons under Larsen the last two seasons. Prior to joining the Blue Jackets organization, he was head coach of the AHL's Peoria Rivermen from 2010-12.
Roos, Chu to be honored
The Fairfield County Sports Hall of Fame's incoming class, announced last month, is highlighted by four-time Olympian Julie Chu (Fairfield, Conn.) and Marty Roos, the all-time leader in coaching wins in Connecticut.
Roos retired in 2012 after 40 years of coaching with 536 career victories at two of the state's elite high school programs in Fairfield Prep and Notre Dame of Fairfield. He won four state titles at Prep and two more at Notre Dame.
Chu has been one of the leaders of women's hockey in the U.S. and has won three silver medals and a bronze in the Olympics.
Ice chips
The Manchester Monarchs, primary affiliate of the Stanley Cup champion Kings, named Mike Stothers as head coach. Stothers replaces Mark Morris, whose contract was not renewed.
Stothers has 30-plus years of pro experience as a player and coach. He most recently served as coach of the Moose Jaw Warriors of the Western Hockey League for three seasons (2011-14). ...
The AHL's Portland Pirates announced the hiring of Trent Whitfield and Alfie Michaud as assistant coaches for the 2014-15 season last month. Whitfield spent parts of seven of his 16 professional seasons as a player in Portland between 1998 and 2005. Michaud, who will serve as goalie coach, was a standout goaltender up the road at the University of Maine.

Higantes take center stage in Albay fest
A Parade of Higantes —giant colorful creatures representing Albay's mythological characters—highlighted the grand opening of Daragang Magayon Festival that kicked off on Monday.
Thousands of city residents gazed at 66 giant colorful papier-mâché creatures over 10 feet tall, which were paraded along a 3-kilometer route in this city to signal the start of the monthlong festival, the longest festival staged in Bicol and organized by the provincial government of Albay.
The four-hour Higantes parade that began at 3 p.m. caused a major traffic jam at Rizal Street, the main thoroughfare of Legazpi City and neighboring Daraga town, but motorists, residents and visitors all took it in stride.
"The parade of mythical creatures was a hit and a crowd-drawing event that took the center stage in this year's Daragang Magayon Festival," Albay Gov. Joey Salceda noted.
The mythical creatures developed by local artists included such characters as "Gugurang," creatures that are able, streetwise, strong, virile and brave Bikolano; "Mayon," a beautiful woman, the youngest sister of Masaraga and Malinao, beautiful, intelligent and proud, hardheaded and moody; and Ibalong epic characters such as "Baltog," "Handiong," "Bantong," "Oryol" and "Rabot."
The characters that drew most attention and won the Higantes street parade competition were "Ibingan," a multihorned red serpent with a fin on its head and back, which bagged the first prize and P75,000 in cash; followed by "Oryol," a beautiful and charming woman from the waist up but a serpent from waist down that won P50,000 cash prize; and third placers "Dinahong," and "Koro-koro," winning P15,000 each.
Tambaluslus, a creature with wide protruding lips that cover its face when it laughs and has loose-bagged testicles which dangles to the ground, was a big hit among the crowd but was widely criticized by the Catholic Church here.
Abdon Balde, a multiawarded Bicol writer, said the characters of the parade of giants were lifted from the book "The Brief Account of Beliefs, Legends, Superstitions and Religion of the
Ancient Indios of Bicol" by Fray Jose Castaño published in 1885 in Madrid, Spain.
The Diocese of Legazpi, meanwhile, yesterday issued a statement lashing out at the festival organizers for erroneous interpretation of the mythical character Tambaluslus, saying that the figure offended basic norms of decency and the law.
"Worse, the organizers of the event and creators of the offensive giant figure know full well that it would be paraded in public, in full view of families and children," the statement said.
The diocesan statement lamented that the piety of Holy Week and Easter were "conveniently set aside in Albay in exchange for lewd and shallow entertainment."
The Diocese said it holds the event organizers accountable for the moral insult to Albayanos as it also urged Salceda to put a stop to this deplorable practice and ensure that it wouldn't happen again.
Reached for comment, Salceda said: "For the peace of our community which is needed to pursue total human secular development, we will acquiesce but the threat is unnecessary."

There are no hotels, motels, campgrounds... on Susak. So unless you want to sleep on the beach you'll have to rent a room or an appartment from a local. There are no many rooms/appartments to rent, so be sure you make your reservation a month or two before your arrival.
We chose the beach. Very comfortable and a fantastic view LOL

You cannot choose your relatives any more than you can choose skin color, gender or race. Did someone in your family lineage sin against God? Mature believers don't let the demons of family members past alter their futures.
It is comforting to know that deliverance from family curses belongs to you. Before you can break the generational curses you need to identify what they look like. Family curses are real. You can't hide from them, you must break them.

|Introduction | Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 sensor performance | Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 vs Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 II: Equal performance | Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 vs Nikon Coolpix P7800 vs Canon PowerShot G1X: Superior sensor performance | Conclusion
Few bridge cameras these days offer Raw output, so we've pitched the RX-10 against high-end compacts from Nikon and Canon. With a physically smaller 1/1.7-inch sensor, the 12-Mpix P7800 is the most disadvantaged of three and it shows with the lowest scores.
The RX10 has approximately a +1 Stop advantage in IQ overall and close to a +2/3 of stop compared with the Canon. However the 15-Mpix Canon G1X has the largest sensor (by surface area) of the trio, at 14 x 18.7mm it's somewhere between MFT and APS-C, so it should have some advantages in key areas.
In fact it has superior low light performance, around +1/2 stop improvement over the RX10 but the Sony has +2/3 stop advantage in color depth and a substantial +2 stops wider dynamic range.
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 looks at first glance a bit like a high-end superzoom with its 24-200mm equivalent F2.8 lens. That's a fairly modest range by modern standards, but then the camera's 1" sensor is very large compared to conventional superzooms. Sony has put a lot of effort into the camera's video capabilities and tools, making it more than just a stills shooter, but are the sum of these parts enough to make the whole worth $1300? Read our review to see what we think about the RX10 - and whether it's worth the premium price.

To website
Sony have a long history of making interesting cameras and have, in recent years, produced some of the most innovative products and technologies. Not all of these developments have caught on but we've admired their pioneering spirit, even when we haven't always loved the products.
The RX10 combines aspects of two of the company's most imagination-catching cameras - the newly announced RX100 II and the near-legendary R1 from 2005. It revives the large-sensor, long-zoom concept of the R1, but utilizing the same 1"-type BSI CMOS sensor, meaning it can offer a balance of high image quality and long zoom in a sensibly sized package. In this case it means the RX10 is able to offer a 24-200mm equivalent F2.8 lens.

If ever there was a need for testing a "fixed" lens, this is it! How soon can we expect to see test results published for this (potentially fantastic) "all-in-one" camera?
Also, why was no comparison made (in this camera/sensor review) against its closest (though smaller-sensored) peers: the Panasonic FZ200 and Olympus Stylus 1 "all-in-one's"?

Re: Lens Testing Needed
You are right, this « fixed » lens is very interesting. But we are not sure to have the time to perform the test this month…
Best regards,

Very good result. I'm a little surprised that a 1" sensor does so well. It gives the best of the m4/3 and APS-C cameras a run for their money. Well done Sony.

No ship last longer than 30 seconds, guaranteed. If they get close, use one of the special speed engines that give you 25% turn speed on thrusters only and just spin.
PHotons would probably be best for this but as the guy before me said, quantum just look cooler so I'm using those lol...
Yup.. good ol park and blast routine... So much for combat tactic. Max DPS and watch them go off like fireoworks.

Finally, we are in a winning position in the war against cancer thanks to new treatments based on modified immune cells
JUST over 40 years ago, the US declared war on cancer. Congress expected a swift victory. The National Cancer Act of 1971 declared it "a national crusade to be accomplished by 1976".
Clearly, it didn't work out that way. While we have won battles against blood and testicular cancers, for example, we are still a long way from winning the war. The outlook for most patients remains depressingly bleak: diagnosis, surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, remission and, eventually, fatal relapse.
Research earlier this year revealed why. Cancer is a many-headed hydra: it rapidly out-evolves treatments that target specific features of cancer cells (New Scientist, 22 June, p 6). Even superficially identical tumours contain many different mutations, making therapy for one type useless against others.
Armed with this information, researchers are focusing on approaches that stimulate patients' own immune systems to attack their tumour. Unlike drugs, immune systems can evolve as the cancer does, staying one step ahead of new mutations. This is how treatments based on a type of white blood cell called T-cells are curing some cancers, rather than just slowing their advance (see "Cancer meets its nemesis in reprogrammed blood cells").
Other immune therapies based on antibodies have also produced impressive outcomes in recent years. But T-cells appear to be even more promising, because they can react to abnormalities inside cancer cells rather than just on their surfaces. That opens up a huge new range of targets to attack.
It is still early days. The cures are limited to a small range of cancers, remain experimental, and are still a long way from the clinic. But they hold great promise. Once we know all cancer's major evolutionary escape routes – and it turns there may be just a few – it may be possible to block them all off with T-cells or drugs like them.
It would be foolhardy to claim that victory is in sight. Many a promising treatment has fallen by the wayside. But T-cells look like a step change. Cancer researchers are still reluctant to use the c-word. But "cure" is starting to be whispered with a shade more conviction.

"Moral Minority is a vivid topography of a little-understood corner of evangelical thought."—New York Times
"In this remarkably rigorous, richly contextualized, and generally exhaustive exploration of the evangelical Left, David R. Swartz returns readers to a time when theologically conservative Protestantism was 'politically up for grabs.'"—Journal of American History
"David Swartz has written a book of colorfully portrayed characters and credible storyline that strikes an elegant balance between politics, theology, social history and biographical narratives."—American Society of Church History
"In this superbly written study, David Swartz offers an excitingly fresh and compelling look at evangelical activists who forged a different ideological path in the age of Nixon and Reagan, one that veered left, away from the rightward trends of their day. Blending big-picture perspective with the colorful insight of biography, Swartz vividly describes his subjects' gospel of social justice and their struggles to win their church over to this progressive faith. In doing so, he forcefully reminds us that modern evangelicalism is neither monolithic nor static in its political persuasions and quest for impact. As both good history and timely observation, this is an important book."—Darren Dochuk, author of From Bible Belt to Sunbelt: Plain-folk Religion, Grassroots Politics, and the Rise of Evangelical Conservatism
"Swartz restores the evangelical left to its important place in the annals of post-sixties American evangelicalism. A striking work of research, recovery, and analysis, Moral Minority will stand as an essential contribution to the new history of American evangelicalism."—Steven P. Miller, author of Billy Graham and the Rise of the Republican South

What is the difference
Since you can break that protein down into an isolate - you can break that isolate down into a peptide - and you can break that peptide down into a fraction do you really think protein isolation fractions are the future. I am just looking around and seeing more companys are starting to do this. Does this mean you can get more gram for gram protein in your body?

When I reported the filter was not plugged, he said we had already done most of the work getting to the filter so with a little more effort we could fix it ourself. With the help of three You Tube videos, it appeared he could do it so he took it off.

From the aforesaid website:
"The goal of the site is to collect the facts about this senseless tragedy and present them for the world to view in hopes that similar tragedies, loss of life and property can be avoided. We seek the truth and aim to publish the truth in this case without bias.
If you have information that would aid in holding the ship owners accountable for the losses, we encourage you to contact us ASAP."
One might suggest the words "without bias" in the first para. are undercut by all the words of the second paragraph??

I agree with them, just go...one does not need mega buck boats, with all the latest electronics and such to sail.
I would think many sailing associations would not them around, as their process is contrary to the goals of these same associations.
I have not met the bumfuzzles, but would enjoy talking with them at some point. More power to them.
I am not an experienced sailor, just by the same classes as you (less the time on a sailboat), but I can not think of a more dangerous situation. I, however, would not trust an individual with no firearm experience to go hunting with me (or the same land). Just my opinion

I love life, family and the gospel. Besides my four beautiful children, I am the proud grandparent of two beautiful grandchildren whom I adore. I love adventures, whether in my own back yard or half way across the world. Laughing everyday is a MUST especially at yourself (and believe me, I can find several reasons a day to laugh at myself) You have to know when to be serious but you also need to be able to cut loose and have fun! Life is just full of wonderful surprises that are waiting to be discovered and enjoyed and I want to be a part of it. I love the feel of wet grass and sand between my toes and anywhere there is water i.e. mountain lakes, rivers and the ocean. Even better if fishing is involved. I enjoy staying healthy by eating right and exercising daily. One of my greatest joys in life is in the service of others. "What do we live for if not to make life less difficult for one another." Other things I enjoy are writing, composing and singing music, dancing, kayaking, playing cards, hanging out at the beach, catching fireflies in jars (I know...it's silly but I like it) and being with family and friends.
What I'm looking for in a relationship is where both people have each others back, spiritually, emotionally and physically. They pattern their relationship in faith, love, forgiveness, trust, and believe in one another not only for what they "are" but what they can "become." They find great joy in the others accomplishments and are there to help lift and inspire especially when one or the other falls. Through Christ's atonement we get a "do over" in life...many, actually, if we need them. I want that in a relationship and I have enough love to give that as well.....One glance at each other from across a room gives you a feeling of that "down to your toes" kind of love.
At the end of my life when I return to God, I don't much care if I've earned trophies or awards, the big house on the hill or honor of men. What I do want is dirt under my nails from weeding a neighbors garden, tired arms from holding an exhausted mother's baby, bags under my eyes from staying up late into the night listening to a teenager's heartbreak of lost love, peanut butter kisses from the kids in the nursery, a sore throat from singing with my friends till I can't sing anymore, sore feet from dancing until dawn and the love of my family and friends. I want to come sliding into home plate thoroughly used up and exhausted with every last bit of energy and yelling "Geronimo!!!!"

Wow! I'm hoping some of them might not be fake since some of the comments on hip2save said that they were able to register them. Sharing Spree is claiming that they are in fact real on their facebook page. I don't know what to think. I haven't received mine yet but as soon as I do, I will try to figure it out. For those of that you have received them, have you checked online to see if you can tell whether they are fake or not? There is a youtube video and a few websites about how to spot a fake. I feel bad now! I have had no problems with ordering anything from them before.

How is it humanly possible a company who people vouch for; who swear is legit, get a manufacturer selling fraudulent products? Sharingspree will lose all the new customers, and some older ones. That $76 price tag was way too good to be true. Quiet frankly since it is being shipped from the US, I feel like someone is walking it to my door- its taking so long.
I received mine today and other than the banged up box and the invalid registration number I couldn't tell it was a fake product. I've requested a refund and will keep the board up to date on what response I get.
Update: I have received an e-mail from Sharing Spree stating that they'll be issuing me a refund soon.

London player Aja Huang (5d), originally from Taiwan, won all three Go Gold medals at the 2014 MSO.
On the Sunday morning he won all four of his games in the seven-player 9x9 tournament.
The promised sunshine took a long time to arrive, but 25 players enjoyed themselves at the Milton Keynes tournament overlooking the Open University cricket pitch.
23 Go players and their friends descended on Barmouth in mid-Wales for the Welsh Open last weekend.
This year the Durham Tournament was held in the Pemberton Rooms on Palace Green, between the historic Cathedral and Castle. There were 25 entrants ranging from 28k to 4d, including eight who had never played in a tournament before, and with the youngest player being 8 years old.
The Challengers' League was held again at ISH in London over the bank holiday weekend, but this time it started a day later, on the Saturday, and ran to the Tuesday. Eight of the top players from the Candidates' Tournament, who were both available and managed to confirm their attendance, took part under the watchful eye of Jenny Radcliffe.
In advance of the Commonwealth Games, a total of 25 players came to Glasgow for the 2014 Scottish Open, the same number as the previous year.
The British Pair Go Championship settled into a new home for the 24th edition, as the old venue had closed down. The event was held in the Red Lion in Hatfield, less than five minutes walk from both the station and the historic old town area.
Alex Rix (3d London) won the Bracknell Tournament. He beat Chris Bryant (1d St Albans) in the last round to claim the Clive Hendrie Trophy for a year. The number of players was down at 24, but nearly everyone got closely matched games due to a gap between 1k and 5k, and exactly 8 players 1k and above.
24 qualified players made it to the Midlands venue of the University of Warwick for the first stage of the 2014 British Championship, the Candidate's Tournament. They played over six rounds on the three days of the May Bank Holiday weekend. The only player to win all his games was Bei Ge. Only losing to Bei was defending champion Andrew Kay.
The Bar-Low tournament was moved to Warwick University this year in order to regain its usual place alongside the Candidates' Tournament.
Chris Volk won four games, only losing to the dan level ghost player. Ben Ellis also won four, only losing to Chris. Those two agreed to have a blitz play-off game.

When did you realize you didn't care how fast you went?
Call it getting old, but I really don't give a rip about going fast. I like carving nice arcs like on a board, but I could care less about times....
I haven't had that realization yet. :lol3
Ohhhhhh yeaaaaaa, done with straight line speed.... But the corners!!!!! Can't beat the rhythm of a great set of twisties..... We all know a few favourite spots where the red mist closes in, and you're lost to the gods of 'g' force...... Be safe, but enjoy......
About a year ago when I discoverd my bike wouldn't pull cleanly in top above 5500rpm.
I eventually tracked the problem down to a change I'd made to the carbs about 18months previous.
I've run it to redline in top since the fix but now I realise I don't really care if my dirt bike can pull 200kph + or not.
I'm not interested in attempting a top speed run (where I ride, that would be suicidal), but where it is safe to do so, I like to see if I can increase how much speed I can carry through the corners. I am nowhere near pushing my bike's limits but I feel like I need to push mine a little each time to improve my own capabilities.
Of course, the opposite needs to be true also, and I need to practice more how fast I can slow down. :eek1
I don`t give a rip about how fast I`m going but apparently the Damn cops do! :lol2
Now at 54 years old, I tend to favor acceleration and cornering vs speed.
Love my SMR, but never had so many crashes though (like 2 in 6 months ...)
Risks are still there :evil
I connected the dots sometime during my first pay period as a traveling maintenance mechanic. One day, while stuck in traffic, it occured to me.....I'm being paid for sitting on my ass and listening to the radio :rofl
Going fast is fun. If it wasn't, I'd sell the bikes and walk around the neighborhood making 'vroom vroom' noises with my mouth.
Fast is getting old,corners are the fun part.
Thinking about a cbr250r for the near by canyon runs.
Be fun to have something i could wind up,and corner.
Instead of rideing through in 3rd gear all the way.
Corners and accelerating is where its at. This is only.my 3rd season of riding.
when i bought a 1000 cc bike that had only 60 hp
