- Valley Vista, Headrest,inc., Wediko Childrens Services, The Wreath School, HCRS of VT
Born in North Adams, Ma., home of the Mohawk Trail. I feel like I was born to help those individuals who feel "stuck" in life, those who might need encouragement and a sense of direction. I am a Certified Holistic Life Coach, a Substance Abuse Counselor, a Tutor, and a Mentor. I have 10 years experience as a Clinician and Counselor for various agencies in Vermont and New Hampshire.
I enjoyed growing up in Hanover, attended plays at the Hopkins Center, Dartmouth Hockey, Shrine Parades/Games. Once I finished hight school, I enrolled at Plymouth State College. I graduated with a B.A. in English. I worked for Loctite Luminescent Systems until a huge first layoff occurred. My son was born in 1984, and most of my focus was on him. I finally found a major I really enjoyed, Human Services. That is when I began to work as a Residential Counselor and was comfortable in this type of work. I liked Human Services and Psychology so much that I entered a Masters program in Counseling at New England College. I did my internships at Wediko Childrens Services and at Headrest, inc. I worked at Valley Vista as a Clinical Case Manager. I took a course in Life Coaching and started my business called Reach for the Stars Coaching, LLC. It was after that I received my substance abuse license from the NH Board of Licensing. I took a reprieve from my business for a while to work as a Clinician for a while. I began to think about going back into business for myself again. Its all about new beginnings for me, and proof that anyone can do it! Now if only the economy would improve. I am a role-model, very determined. I've got to keep reaching, just like I ask of my clients to do. I have the motivation, I persevere at whatever I do. I added on mentoring and tutoring to my business when life coaching and counseling was slow. I am semi-retired but I do part time and per diem work now.

Originally written on Scout.com: Tampa Bay | Last updated 11/4/11
With Casey Kotchman and Dan Johnson now both on the free agent market, the Rays have a very glaring hole on their 40 Man Roster. Russ Canzler would likely be the best option at first base if the season were to start today. Coming off an incredible year in AAA Durham, is he ready to produce at the big league level? Does he have the defense to man the position? We answer those questions inside.

Eusebio Pedroza vs. Rocky Lockridge I: 143-143 Draw
Pedroza: 7,8,9,10,12 and 14( 10-8 ).
Lockridge: 1,2,3,4,5, 11 and 15.
Rounds 6 and 13 even.
I can see someone having it for Pedroza by 2 or 3 points, but 5 points seems rather wide to me WAR.
Found my card sweet...a tad different to what I remember but here it is.
Pedroza-Lockridge I - 146-141
Pedroza: 4,6,8,9,10,11,12,13,14
Lockridge: 1,2,5,7,
Rounds 3 and 15 Even
Could easily see the 3rd, 4th and 15th (on reflection I should have given the last to him) for Rocky but felt that Pedroza did some very good work himself.
Perhaps the final score is not indicative of the closeness of the the bout but Ive got to score each round on their own and I thought Pedroza just edged some of the more contentious ones, and had a big second half of the fight.
The whole fight the commentators were very bias against Pedroza.

Cedric Peerman of the Cincinnati Bengals ran an amazing fake punt against the Jacksonville Jaguars that worked to perfection. Let's not stand on ceremony here though. It is the Jaugars. They aren't exactly an NFL powerhouse. We can wonder whether or not Shad Khan is furiously trying to sell the team back to whoever he bought it from. This comes from the NFL Redzone which is basically football porn and completely amazing. DirecTV may have terrible customer service but man their products are amazing. JUMP!

If people are sexually active and not using condoms, what is the possibility of them having a disease?
- Kamyra*
Unfortunately, it's quite likely. People who have sex without using condoms are at high risk of getting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
It doesn't matter how many people the person has had sex with. Even if someone has only had one sexual partner, that partner could have a disease. Of course, the chances of getting STDs (also called sexually transmitted infections, or STIs) are even higher if a person has unprotected sex with lots of different partners.
Many people who have STDs do not have obvious signs or symptoms. Because of this, they may believe they're "clean" and tell partners there's no need to use a condom. But that's not safe. For example, about 6 out of 10 young people with HIV don't know they're infected. So they risk passing the virus, which causes AIDS, on to others.
Even getting treatment isn't a completely foolproof way to stop STDs from spreading. Some STDs (like trichomoniasis) can be treated so they go away, but other infections (like herpes or HPV) will always be in a person's body, even if that person has been treated. Plus, if someone has been treated for an STD like chlamydia and it goes away, that same person can still get re-infected if exposed to the STD another time.
Anyone who is planning to have sex, or who has had sex, should be tested for STDs. And always use condoms for protection — every time.

- Leave 2", then string a crimp bead onto the wire. Crimp it. String assorted beads for 1- 1 1/4". String another crimp bead and crimp it to hold the beads in place.
- Repeat Step Two 14 times. String a crimp bead 1 1/2" from the wire end. Crimp it. String three assorted beads and another crimp bead. Fold the end of the wire back into the crimp bead to form a loop. Crimp it.
- String a 10mm round bead and a bell cap onto a head pin. Use round nose pliers to make a loop above the bell cap. Attach the head pin loop to the loop at the end of the lariat.

Our Foundation
The Love From Margot Foundation was started to honor my wife Margot and the love she gave me. Margot Murphy was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer in June 2002, when she was 29. She battled the disease until June 18, 2011. She was only 38.
When Margot's friends and families think of her, the word LOVE comes to mind. Margot was full of love, and she passionately loved LIFE. I watched her live every day expressing love – and courage. I thank Margot for teaching me that all that really matters is love, now my heart's desire is to love and serve. Thus, this foundation.
For the past three years I have personally met with over 100 men and woman fighting various illnesses. Our foundation has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in financial grants to these people in a hope to lighten their burden and to help them overcome their illness.
In addition, by the way of financial grants to our partners, Shanti Project in San Francisco, Highland Hospital in Oakland and Gilda's Club in Palm Desert, we have helped hundreds more. I have personally done all of this work by myself with just one assistant.
It is impossible to not take on the pain and suffering that our clients are experiencing; at least for me. Along with the financial pressure of funding 90% of this work personally, it creates a great deal of stress. As a result, I need to take a short break and deal with this physical and emotional stress I am feeling and also work to secure more funding
I know with all my heart that very few non-profits are as pure as ours, if any. Our work truly is a labor of love and sacrifice; I am convinced more than ever that what our world needs now are generous souls who understand this concept. Dietrich Bonhoeffer stated, "A righteous man lives for the next generation". I know this to be true and believe this concept is greatly needed today for humanity to continue to exist and evolve.
As a result, we will not be accepting any more grant applications at this time other than emergency situations from Highland Hospital; no exceptions. I hope that this break will last only 2-3 months while I refuel on energy and money. When I return I will announce a plan and vision that excites me so much I can barely sleep at night because I am so excited about it, it's a plan that will allow us to help so many more people.
If I had one wish it would be that others could experience the joy I have in assisting our clients; they may be poor financially but they are so rich in courage at times it overwhelms me. May our Creator bless you with great health and great love today and always.
In Love and Peace,
Mike Murphy

Mexican low-cost carrier Volaris is taking delivery of new Airbus A320s with a denser seat configuration, as it aims to add more seats to its in-service fleet.
The carrier tells Flightglobal that A320 deliveries from the second half of 2014 onwards will be configured with 179 seats, five seats more than the 174 seats on most of its in-service A320s.
Volaris operates 48 A320 family aircraft, comprising 29 A320s and 19 A319s, Flightglobal's Ascend Fleets database shows. The airline is already operating two A320s with the denser configuration, Volaris chief commercial officer Holger Blankenstein tells Flightglobal. Volaris has 17 current generation A320s on order, Ascend shows.
The airline had said previously it plans to retrofit its existing A320s with additional seats, for 179 seats on each aircraft. Blankenstein says the airline is not able to say when the retrofit will take place, as it is still working with Airbus on the changes.
"Airbus needs to deliver to us certain weight and balance calculations," he tells Flightglobal.
Volaris has said that adding more seats to its A320s will reduce unit costs by about 2.7%. The carrier plans to remove the smaller A319s, which are configured with 144 seats, from its fleet by 2019.
Besides the 17 A320ceos on order, Volaris also plans to acquire a further 46 A320neo family aircraft.

Without an airport, tourism on Atiu could not start. Shipping was infrequent and unscheduled. Small yachts could not anchor. But it was not the first airport but the second airport that started tourism on Atiu. The first airport was built in 1944 by an inovative resident agent, Bill Allison. The higher authorities were not amused and issued him a reprimand for his efforts. He was told to destroy it. "Didn't he know there was a war on?". No plane ever landed on this airstrip.
In 1978 the second airport was completed and two years later the first villa of Atiu Motel was opened for visitors. Even then it was not until the next year 1981 that the first visitor came. He was Paco Berry a professor from the USA. In 1983 the airstrip was moved from on top of the central plateau to the northeast makatea. This third airstrip was longer and safer.
Tourism slowly grew from 88 visitors in 1981, to 499 in 1991 and about 800 in 2001. In 1998 the Are Manuiri guesthouse opened and total figures are not available. It is now estimated that there are an average of 12 visitors on the island at any time. This is low as there are about 50 beds available from 6 accommodations. It is still possible to be the only visitor on Atiu.
Strangely, pre-September 2001, most visitors came from Europe, followed by the Americas, then Australian with New Zealand our closest neighbour very much last. Post-September 2001 most visitors come from Australia and New Zealand.
Atiu has positioned itself as an Eco-Island trying to attract the nature enthusiasts and those seeking a natural unspoilt island. This we do well with caves, secluded beaches, pristine tropical jungle, the weird shaped makatea, little commerce and very friendly people. We are trying to retain our differences from the rest of the world. This is hard to do. At best we are about 35 years behind the modern world and enjoying it. You will notice the refreshing difference.
In 2001 active accomodators and tour guides formed the Atiu Tourism Group. The rules for this group were quite simple. Any member could call a meeting and would chair the meeting. Decisions were by signed agreement. Founding members were Atiu Villas, Kura's Kitchen, Are Manuiri, Atiu Fibre Arts Studio, Atiu Coffee, Atiu Tours, Kopeka lodge and Taparere Lodge. This group still exists. Membership broadened, changed and rearranged in 2003, when a breakaway and more political grouping was formed called the "Atiu Tourism Society". The structure and larger membership of a society was found necessary to access $25,000 in Government money. This means there are now two groups representing Tourism on Atiu. This website is managed by the Atiu Tourism Group.
For the Atiu Tourism Group contact either, Roger Malcolm of Atiu Villas, phone 33777, Man Unuia of Kopeka lodge, phone 33283, Mata Arai of Atiu Island Coffee, phone 33088 or Birdman George, phone 33047.
For the Atiu Tourism Society, contact the chairman, Nikau Tangaroa, phone 33010.

Day 6
Day 6 June 26, 2013
Hyder, Ak to Boya Lake, BC
395 miles
Up at the crack of dawn to go see the salmon glacier. Yay right, not after you've been "hyderized". Plus I'm not sure there is a crack of dawn.
The road to the Salmon Glacier was fun because you can see the glacier from long ways off but you know that you're only seeing a tiny piece of it so the anticipation builds as you approach.
At the end of the road the views are spectacular. You hear this all the time but the pictures do not do it justice. If you get the chance, go see it. Too bad it was over cast but we are lucky it wasn't totally socked in. The sign was put there by a guy selling bear fight DVD's and post cards in case you forgot what you had just rode 1500 mile to see. More on that later.
So as I got to the end of the road the first thing I noticed before the glacier was a little stand set up with a sign advertising bear fight DVD's and post cards. For what ever reason that irritated me. 25 miles up a dead end dirt rode out in the middle of nowhere and someone wants to sell me something. Dean is a nicer guy than I am so after were get pictures and see the sights he strikes up a conversation with the guy. He's retired and lives in eastern Canada but comes over here every year and spends the summer. He makes all the DVD's and post cards himself. In the evenings he goes hiking and shoots video and stills and during the days he edits and sells them to the folks who show up. He does it all just for fun and sells the stuff to cover his costs. Nice guy and knew all about the area. I felt bad for being irritated earlier. Dean bought a DVD for $10 but by the time we got home the case was in a million pieces and the DVD was pretty beat up.
On the way back just below the glacier you could see several of these green pools next to the river.
Lunch in Stewart. Surprisingly the restaurants there are kind of fancy. I had french onion soup and dean had halibut. On the menu it said the halibut was served rare and the waitress repeated this. The people behind us were from Oklahoma and wanted seafood. They both ordered the halibut but were a bit scared about the rare part. When Dean got his food he pronounced "Its a good thing I like sushi because this thing is RAW!" This freaked the lady from Oklahoma out and she begged the waitress to have the chef "cook" the fish. The waitress said she would ask. When their food came it was cooked through and they were happy.
This is the bear glacier. You can see it from the highway on the way in and out of town. Quite the puny lame-ass glacier compared to the salmon. Dean was so unimpressed he never shut the motor off. He just stopped looked and moved on.(We actually stopped to see it on the way in also.)
Headed north on the Cassiar Highway. One of many steel grate decked bridges we crossed. The grates make your bike wander all over the place. I new this bothered dean a bit so I always sped up and went across them as fast as I could just to show him I wasn't scared.
We had just come from the town of Dease Lake where we were planning to stay. It was raining cats and dogs and were didn't feel like setting up camp in the rain. The motel was full and the restaurant was closed. It was late and we were tired but we motored on.
Glad we did. Found a nice place to camp at Boya Lake. The weather changed. It was warm and dry.
Dean had every flavor of mountain house meal meal made. I think we both made it back home with more meals than we ate.
This was the first time on the trip we had any mosquitos. They weren't really that bad but I didn't want to pack all this skeeter stuff for nothing.

'Free at Last'
While so many are introduced to "I Have a Dream" while sitting in an elementary school classroom, the speech still has significance in the political climate of today, Frazier said.
"The speech is powerful, first off, because of how relevant many of the issues that Dr. King brought attention to are still relevant today," he said. "It wasn't simply about being recognized as humans, but being treated as humans."
"When he says, 'This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism,' that struck me," Kennerson-Baty said. "Things happen in the news that reinforce that several aspects of King's dream has yet to be fulfilled. There is still work to do."
Frazier said the strength of King's speech is his call for people to be active within their own communities to incite change.
"One of the things that gives me hope is recognizing how the dream is still being fought for, waged for every day," Frazier said. "It speaks to that moment of 1963, but it still resonates. It's very much alive, you can feel its legacy brewing in the energy of the masses."

An Unfortunate Meeting With A Critter
Done in Photoshop. The main light source is the guy's torch, held off screen. The initial inspiration for the piece came from my spiteful musings about dungeon crawling adventurers and how it's not always all fun and games.
All critiques/comments appreciated.
Little story:
"Hearing a noise down the hall the brave adventurer sweeps over his torch and looks back for a split second. Just as his gaze drifts, this little prankster pops out of a hole in the wall to dispatch our unsuspecting hero."Trust me
as long as I dont look
no one gets hurt.

Im not exactly sure where to start criting this because there are so many things that need fixing, so ill just point out obvious things. Um your monster looks like its made of beef jerky. I have absolutly no idea whats going on with his anatomy, your guy to the right feels extremely muddy as with the color handling infact every thing in this image feels as if it has been exhausted with the burn tool, and the composition overall feel incredibly cramped.
"it's much easier to scale up from simplicity than to scale back from complexity"
September 11th, 2006 #3
Yeah, the image is also very flat. And Slim Jim's eyes are dry, dry, dry.
OK, overall, I'd say this was a texture exercise. The forms seem to be suffering because of it and the creature's construction has been sacrificed before it. The man's face isn't poorly done, but it's not a very convincing face (meaning it's obvious your reference was limited).
The composition is one of the main problems. You have no eye path, multiple focal points, and there's just no room for any potential action. You've squeezed everything into a very tight space and Slim Jim isn't going to have room to leap onto Franco and nibble at his ear.
Oh, and a fire light gives a much warmer light than this. It looks more like a modern white light bulb that's illuminating the scene.
So, you've got some really nice textures going, but as far as everything else goes, it might help to reconsider some of the foundation decisions.

its not so bad for a Blizzard art competetion piece.
but do what these guys are trying to mention and clarify the shapes and stay away from using blacks and deep hues with too much opacity.
i would also try and rework how this shot is framed. its too cramped expand out the view a bit more. you're right to zoom in and show the detail of this small creature but shit dude that is cheating with how small you have it as is.
September 11th, 2006 #5
The light and shadow is good. The texture is good. The carving on the wall is very nice. The guy's face is very structured and 3-dimensional, but the critter is rim lit and shaded just like the carvings on the wall so he looks flat. He needs a reflection on his evil eyeballs and a spot of light on his knife to make it more menacing and bring it forward.

Glens Falls, NY, January 5, 2013 – Sean Couturier's power-play goal at 3:08 of overtime gave the Adirondack Phantoms a 2-1 win over the Connecticut Whale Saturday night at the Glens Falls Civic Center. Just 11 seconds after Micheal Haley was called for slashing, Danny Syvret fed the puck from the middle of the blue line to Couturier, and his shot from the right circle cleanly beat Whale goaltender Cam Talbot. Chad Kolarik scored the only Whale goal, and Tye McGinn had the other Phantom tally. Cal Heeter made 30 saves in the Adirondack net to get the win, and Talbot stopped 34 out of 36 for Connecticut. "They (the Phantoms) carried the play for pretty good stretches of the first (period)," Whale head coach Ken Gernander said. "It took us a little while to get our feet under us, to get things going, and I thought it was a fairly evenly-played game after that." After Talbot had shut the Phantoms out in a 3-0 Whale win Friday night at the XL Center in Hartford, in the ...

"love, love, love the way this card turned out! we've received lots of compliments on it. stop reading this and order it already!! :D"
"nice card. we upgraded to a heavier card stock, and opted for the carved edges, so it turned out beautiful. the font choices were good, but the font sizes available were too small, in my opinion, so the text we entered was difficult to read."
"The expected ship date was much farther away than when I actually received the product. They were so fast; I was impressed! The cards are great quality and the picture looks beautiful on the card. I will definitely be ordering my next cards with them."
"This was my favorite Christmas Card yet! We got married in May so it was a great way to share some wedding pics on our Christmas card!"
"Color of this card complemented the tones of our family photo -which was pretty casual. Impressed by paper quality. Photo reproduced very close to our digital version"

Amazing Grace
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see
'T was grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fear relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils and snares
We have already come
'T was grace that bro't us save thus far
And grace will lead us home
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me

Globe review: Eyes on the prize
At the ICA, one Foster finalist focuses on photography
By Sebastian Smee
Globe Staff
I'm guessing that the James and Audrey Foster Prize, the Institute of Contemporary Art's local version of Britain's notorious Turner Prize, sees itself as a little more grown-up and subtle and a little less sensation-craving than the British award, whose winners over the years have included a guy who switched lights on and off in an empty room (Martin Creed), another who specializes in dead animals suspended in formaldehyde (Damien Hirst), and a third who combined paint with elephant dung (Chris Ofili).
Good for it. I'm all for subtlety and maturity. But in giving up on the potential for a bit of excitement, the selection panel for this year's Foster Prize has produced a show that is, unfortunately, less mature than insipid.
Let's face it, art prizes are inherently silly. The genius of the Turner Prize in its heyday was that it accepted the absurdity of treating art like a dog race and made a bit of fun with it.
The Foster Prize, which aims to "recognize the accomplishments of Greater Boston's artists of exceptional promise," is a more earnest affair. The winner will be announced in January; of the four finalists, each allotted one room at the ICA, three make work that is both conceptual and autobiographical - call it conceptual-narcissism.
One of those finalists, Rania Matar, is represented by a handful of photographs from Lebanon. Matar's work is artful and engaged with something outside of herself, making it a welcome antidote to the rest of the show.
Matar was born in Lebanon and took these photographs on travels back to her homeland. Her images feature many women wearing black headwear, although not all of them are Muslim; many are Christian Maronite nuns.
As a collection of images, Matar's fairly small display argues for the human richness and complexity of Lebanese society even in a context of destruction (several images show battered buildings and rubble). But there are individual images that stand apart and have a genius all their own.
The best is a photograph taken this year in Beirut called "Three Nuns." It shows three Maronite nuns in black garb standing in front of a congregation praying with eyes closed. All face the same way, toward Matar's camera.
The nun on the left regards the camera sourly, with pursed lips and contemptuous eyes. The middle nun looks at the camera, but with an expression of calm equilibrium, while the nun on the right has caught some of the mood of the congregation: Her tilted head suggests dreamy, divinely inspired detachment.
The photograph is the result of what looks like astonishing serendipity, but Matar obviously had to put herself in an awkward position before serendipity could strike. The photograph is the best in the room. But I was also impressed by a series of nine small images, arranged in a grid, showing close-ups of household detritus amid rubble and ash - the aftermath of bombing.
The series is called "Lost Memories," but the individual works have simple descriptive titles such as "Rubber Gloves" and "Plates," after the identifiable remnants of domesticity they show. With these titles, writes curator Carole Anne Meehan, "Matar does not minimize enormous devastation, but reveals how the human trace persists." Quite so.

To former employee Brent Gohde, David Schwartz's bookshop on N. Downer Ave. did more than sell books and provide a paycheck.
The bookstore was an incubator for friendship, creativity and community in his life and, he believes, in the lives of many others.
Cedar Block, Gohde's performance collective, will celebrate that aspect of the bookstore's legacy with "May the Schwartz Be With You," an Alverno Presents show Saturday at Turner Hall Ballroom.
Cedar Block stages multimedia, genre-crossing events, with storytelling, music, film and visual art that can be called either happenings or variety shows. Last year's "Sexy Results" show was stimulated by scientists' quest for the subatomic Higgs boson particle.
Gohde likens his part in these productions to Ira Glass' role in "This American Life": host, storyteller and facilitator.
Following "Sexy Results," when he brainstormed with Alverno Presents guru David Ravel about what to do next, Gohde got to talking about the years (1997-2000) he worked at Schwartz Bookshop. He realized that "everyone I met over the past 15 years" is directly linked to "the day I got hired at Schwartz."
"I met some of my heroes as the result of being the events coordinator at Schwartz Bookshop. But I also met my friends," Gohde said.
So the Cedar Block show is both one collective's look at the role Schwartz played in the local creative world and a set of reflections, in story, music and art, of the ways Gohde and his collaborators found like-minded artists. In the course of the evening, Fuel Cafe and WMSE-FM (91.7) are also paid homage for the roles they've played in stimulating friendships.
Among many other collaborators, Cedar Block regulars Chris Rosenau and Jim Warchol will be part of a house band for the evening, and artist Ashley Morgan will create "some surreal shelves" for the program. Gohde is borrowing Schwartz ephemera from Boswell Book Company, the bookstore at the N. Downer Ave. location owned by former Schwartz employee Daniel Goldin.

Re: 1.0-7167 for Linux x86 released
uh, didnt notice this forum is in english, sorry.
the same in bad english.
I have successfully installed 7167 driver on my box, compile, install,
xrandr rotate, all is working fine.
But (yes there is a but ), as an openGl developper, i have meet several problems
1/ glBlendColor make my apps to segfault
2/ I have no more shading language capabilities, neither Cg nor glsl apps works, even after recompiling them. I use latest Cg 1.3, but with 7167 drivers the drivers report that the card has no shading capabilities like if i was using an old geforce 3 card, but it is not the case, i use a FX5950, and with 6629 drivers i could use vp30 and fp30 profile.
So does anybody with 7167 have been able to use shading language capabilities, or is it a general driver problem ?
ps: In my prec post in french, i have attached my nvidia-bug-report.log
ps2 : i have read the thread and i have seen that some have temperature problems, it's not my case and the card remains as cool as before.
