A Historian and Her Source
The Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore puts an academic's book on hold.
12:00 AM, May 20, 2002 • By BETH HENARY
WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT an exclusive, 117-year-old private girls' school would object to having its history written by a capable historian? For reasons that remain obscure, the Bryn Mawr School in Baltimore is blocking publication of a book about the school that was originally written--with the school's cooperation--as a Ph.D. dissertation at Tulane University. Professional historians are up in arms.
From the moment she stepped into Bryn Mawr's archive in 1995, Andrea
Staff members of the school continued to help Hamilton even after she signed a contract with Johns Hopkins in 1998. The Bryn Mawr archivist offered to assist with finding photos. In one conference call, the librarian and archivist voiced what seemed to Hamilton minor questions about the content of her dissertation. Then the school pulled the plug.
The Johns Hopkins Press had sent the revised manuscript to Barbara Chase, a former headmistress of the school, and the school itself had sent copies to two readers familiar with the subject. All three readers strongly opposed its publication, calling it everything from "historically muddled" to lacking in "basic validity." The school informed Hamilton, without asking for revisions or corrections. The only specific objection mentioned was her handling of documents concerning the desegregation of the school. In 2000, Bryn Mawr played its trump card. Citing an agreement Hamilton had signed with the archivist in 1995 saying she would not publish anything without the archivist's permission, the school threatened legal action. Hopkins had no choice but to cancel the contract. The next year, when Rowman and Littlefield expressed interest, Bryn Mawr again threatened to sue.
Historians worry that the school is setting a bad precedent for their profession. Last Monday over 140 scholars and university archivists signed a letter to David M. Funk, president of the Bryn Mawr trustees, imploring the school not to hide its history: "By leaving the matter as it now stands, you risk making this unfortunate episode the legacy of Bryn Mawr School: a footnote in the history of the suppression of academic freedom and historical debate."
"All of us," the letter continues, "have spent at least part of our careers working with manuscript sources and encouraging graduate students to do the same. Dr. Hamilton did what graduate students in American history are taught to do."
Andrea Hamilton's dissertation adviser, Wilfred McClay of the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga, dismisses desegregation as a plausible explanation for the school's position. "Disagreement about segregation? What a bombshell! They [the school] HAVE to be kidding!"
McClay speculates that what the school really object to may be Hamilton's discussion of the influence of Carol Gilligan's "women's ways of knowing" and "different voice" philosophy on the school in the 1980s. The school may also have been sensitive about Hamilton's treatment of the fact that the founders' vision--every girl should aspire to college and a career--was sometimes compromised at patrons' demand.
The manuscript, however, seems fairly evenhanded. Hamilton expresses respect for the founders' mission of providing girls with the best education possible. In conclusion, she calls Bryn Mawr "a working school, complicated by the problems and flaws inevitable in all institutions. . . . The hope is that in helping us to think more deeply about how one prominent girls' school has defined and redefined itself in relationship to the position of girls and women in society, the history of the Bryn Mawr School can give us greater insight into the exploration of modern issues in the education of girls."
In April, when the Baltimore Sun reported on Bryn Mawr's objection to the publication of Hamilton's book, Bryn Mawr's board of trustees decided to revisit the matter. The executive committee was due to reconvene last Thursday, though the results of that meeting were not immediately available.
Trustee chairman David Funk told The Daily Standard that the scholars' letter was "well written" and "well argued" and that the board valued every comment it's been given on the controversy.

Curtis Glencross helps out in the chuckwagon barns every summer during the Calgary Stampede, so it was quite fitting that his second career hat trick was greeted to a hail of stetsons. Glencross scored three times in the third period to lead Calgary to a 6-3 victory over the Nashville Predators on Friday night, giving the Flames their sixth straight home win. Glencross made it 4-1 at 1:14 of the final period when Lee Stempniak's slap shot from the opposite wing rang off the goal post and caromed off Glencross as he was driving the net. After Mike Fisher got Nashville back within two at 3:15, Glencross struck again at 5:32, converting a setup from Stempniak. The third came into an empty net with 20 seconds left, prompting the white stetsons given away during ''Western Night'' at the Scotiabank Saddledome to be thrown onto the ice. ''After I got the second, I said it would be kind of cool to see a bunch of cowboy hats come on the ice. It's a little different, that doesn't happen v...

St. Mary�s public school classrooms will be outfitted with 3,500 touchscreen tablets thanks to a $2.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Defense.
The grant, which was announced Wednesday afternoon by Superintendent Michael Martirano along with local and state elected leaders and Patuxent River Naval Air Station officials, was awarded to St. Mary�s public schools to expand science, technology, engineering and mathematics teaching initiatives.
The county school system was eligible because of the number of military-connected students 6,448 students or 35 percent of the total enrollment last school year.
The award is �the largest grant in the history of the school system,� Martirano said.
The majority of the grant $1.9 million will be used to buy the 3,500 touchscreen tablets, such as iPads, to be placed in 410 classrooms. School officials said all regular elementary classrooms as well as all middle and high school science classrooms will receive the tablets.
The remainder of the grant money will be used for professional development for teachers, other administrative costs and to fund two new positions a STEM project coordinator and an e-coach.
Martirano said the grant will grow the �STEM for All� initiative that aims to teach critical skills to all students, not just those in the specialized STEM academies located at Lexington Park Elementary, Spring Ridge Middle and Great Mills High schools that require students to apply.
�We have to teach young people to solve problems that haven�t even been identified yet,� Martirano said.
Forty-four Department of Defense grants were given; St. Mary�s was one of only three to receive the largest amount available of $2.5 million.
Half of the grant money is awarded in the first year with the remainder scheduled to arrive in years two and three, school officials said. The first set of interactive tablets and the two new employees will likely be in place by January.
Del. John Bohanan (D-St. Mary�s) said that despite an unemployment rate nationally of 7.8 percent, there are some 2 million jobs that cannot be filled because they require workers with backgrounds in science, technology, engineering and math.
�They�re doing it out of self-interest, for the Department of the Defense and for our country,� to help grow the number of qualified workers for national defense jobs, Bohanan said.
�We can have one of the best STEM programs not just in this state, but in the country,� Bohanan said, praising the partnerships in St. Mary�s County between different levels of government, Pax River and the private sector.

Nike is established and stable. Although nothing revolutionary is in the works for this corporate giant, Nike is a wise long term investment choice. I anticipate within the year to hear news of a 2:1 stock split. While this doesn't increase shareholder's money in and of itself, it creates an energy about the stock that others will buy into. This "energy" coupled with the company's underlying philosophy will guarantee growth.

Strong leadership
Nike is a leading company in it's market. It is coming out with earnings soon and I believe it is a buy. In graphs for the stock of this company it clearly shows that it has been consistently going up. A lot of people love Nike and buy a lot from this brand. It is also at a fairly low price per share. This is why I believe that Nike will outperform the market and is a good buy.
See you in 100 years.
I wanted to go visit Duke this weekend, but since I cannot even tell what country is hacking my computer right now, I am going to leave it up to TMF1000 and the rest of The Motley Fools to end the Nazi like treatment that has been dosed to the Americans from the unknown hackers of the world. Today is my last Pi Day on The Motley Fool. Please leave me alone or I will put my NKE on and run by you for the exercise. I cannot swim to Turkey and/or Israel for a vacation, so I hope you all have a great weekend. Rock on, I am guessing that I am getting hacked by the Chinese, North Korea and/or Japanese as a joke to make me sick. Anyway, I hope that any newly invented Nike products that are connected to humans do not make them sick like my iPad and/or personal computers. I have learned that pitches are a lot like rubber shoes, the more you use them, the more worn out they get. I hope none of you own a Sony laptop and/or an iPad. This CAPS game is for educational purposes only. At least I learned that the people hacking my family illegally were the ones that made us all sick. Rock on...
I think Nike is a solid company with a proven track record. And also, with the growing popularity of stars and people in general wearing athletic wear as regular clothing, I think this may boost sales.
With FL, this stock is like an IKEA for shoe people.
Sports, it's what people do to keep their minds off the troublesome stuff. Health and exercise is a growing trend. Nike is king of sports equipment.
Nike has some serious brand power. It's still growing at great rates considering it's already impressive size. What's important not to overlook is their dividend! It has continued to grow, and it helps make this a solid stock for the long run. To me, this is what Buffett's talking about when he says he wants to buy stocks that he would feel confident owning if the market shut down for 10 years. The only caveat - don't overpay. A reasonable price is fine, but a sale is even better.

They feel bad, so they found you these other deals to make up for it.

Sound Door ServicesRead MoreWhen it comes to garage doors, there hasn't really been a whole lot of innovation in the past 40 years. The best garage door is the one that opens, closes, and doesn't give you any guff in between. Sound Door Service?a Seattle-based, locally owned and operated company?understands this, and that's why a good number of their doors come with life-time warranties. But that's just the beginning. They stock a massive selection of doors that range from classic steel doors that get the job done to Heritage Classic carriage style doors, hand-crafted by retired race horses. Of course, sometimes things go wrong, so Sound Door Service keeps a team of techs on hand. They can fix up damaged sections, install an entirely new unit, or swap out rusty springs for new ones. Techs can also correct door torsion and repair extension springs, and lend assistance and expertise to owners shopping for a new door.15617 160th Ct SERenton, WA US
Rockler Woodworking and HardwareRead MoreFamily patriarch Nordy Rockler opened the doors of his first store in 1954 to supply his fellow craftsmen with knowledge, friendly advice, and a large selection of tools for at-home woodworking projects. Now, the chain of retail outlets brims with more than 20,000 tools and specialized woodworking equipment. Next to a steely rainbow of hinges, casters, and screws, a supply of lumber and exotic hardwoods provides planks for building tree houses or just leaving around as a warning to uncooperative trees. The tenor buzz of power tools operated by newly knowledgeable guests drifts from educational sessions on operating equipment and woodworking.3823 Stone Way NorthSeattle, WA US

The Walrus and the CarpenterRead MoreFour Things to Know About The Walrus and the Carpenter In 2013, Bon Appetit named The Walrus and the Carpenter one of 2013's 20 most important restaurants in America. Here are some reasons the seafood eatery has garnered so many accolades: The name pays homage to Through the Looking-Glass. In the book's famous poem, "The Walrus and the Carpenter," the titular characters befriend a group of oysters, only to devour them rabidly. The menu changes daily. Found soaking in icy baskets throughout the dining room, new oysters grace the menu every day in raw and cooked forms. The remaining menu encompasses everything from locally harvested mussels to duck and pork rillettes. The drink menu also changes daily. Along with an assortment of wines and brews, bartenders craft cocktails such as the spaghetti western, a blend of rye, Campari, sweet vermouth, and ginger beer wrapped in a giant poncho. It has an elegant vibe. In addition to gazing at the aforementioned oyster baskets, Seattle Magazine recommends admiring "the sheer gorgeousness" of the restaurant's interior, including the "brambly chandelier" hanging above the bar.4743 Ballard Ave NWSeattle, WA US
Seattle Best Handyman SeattleRead MoreAfter retiring as a fourth-generation Seattle firefighter, it was only natural that Bill Davis decided his next career path would involve his ever-present tool belt. A master carpenter with more than 25 years of experience, Bill leads a bonded and insured crew of assistants as they expedite small and large domestic projects. He provides estimates and answers to all types of carpentry, remodeling, and installation projects, putting in new cabinets with the same deft skill he uses to build a brick pathway or clean gutters of squirrels' safety deposit boxes. Above all, his company puts good work and integrity first, in hopes of becoming a household name for each of his clients.15548 Northeast Bothell WaySeattle, WA US

Deep mitochondrial divergence within a Heliconius butterfly species is not explained by cryptic speciation or endosymbiotic bacteria

Cryptic population structure can be an indicator of incipient speciation or historical processes. We investigated a previously documented deep break in the mitochondrial haplotypes of Heliconius erato chestertonii to explore the possibility of cryptic speciation, and also the possible presence of endosymbiont bacteria that might drive mitochondrial population structure.
Among a sample of 315 individuals from 16 populations of western Colombia, two principal mtDNA clades were detected with 2.15% divergence and we confirmed this structure was weakly associated with geography. The first mtDNA clade included 87% of individuals from northern populations and was the sister group of H. erato members of Andes western, while the second clade contained most individuals from southern populations (78%), which shared haplotypes with an Ecuadorian race of H. erato. In contrast, analysis using AFLP markers showed H. e. chestertonii to be a genetically homogeneous species with no association between mitochondrial divergence and AFLP structure. The lack of congruence between molecular markers suggests that cryptic speciation is not a plausible explanation for the deep mitochondrial divergence in H. e chestertonii. We also carried out the first tests for the presence of endosymbiontic bacteria in Heliconius, and identified two distinct lineages of Wolbachia within H. e. chestertonii. However, neither of the principal mitochondrial clades of H. e. chestertonii was directly associated with the patterns of infection.
We conclude that historical demographic processes are the most likely explanation for the high mitochondrial differentiation in H. e. chestertonii, perhaps due to gene flow between Cauca valley H. e. chestertonii and west Pacific slope populations of H. erato.

They won't leave big O at the end of their career to fix a new program that might take 3-4 years to produce a Dakar winner. They have a better chance of winning another title in '13 and/or '14 and then retire.
3. HRC has a strategic problem now. If you look at the Rally Maroc stage listings, Sam and Felipe were the fast guys who could build up pressure and render quick assistance when necessary. Pizzolito and JC were way back most of the time, bringing up the rear.
Helder is a semi-alien, but without great backup, he's back to where he was on his Yamaha.
Tapatalk god willing;)
HRC doesn't have a strategic problem - they have a nightmare scenario of effectively a 5 man team now really 1 man. As much as I love JC he's first to admit he's no alien. There is now far less 'pressure dispersement' and as such more stress on helder. Effectively there is a 66.66% reduction in the team of elite HRC riders. That calls for drastic measures.
Economics always comes into it. Long term anyway. If I were HRC given how late it is in the game, I'd throw a bait to coma - see he if bites. LOTS to lose not much to gain. Give him $5m january money. Then come February HRC will have a dakar win or mondo experience.
Btw does ANYONE actually know wtf happened to Sam and zanol ?
Troy I would still like to hear your answers though. :)

Ex-prosecutor Asks For Pardon In Fatal GM Crash
Ex-prosecutor Asks For Pardon In Fatal GM Crash
Unlock your personal NFL Now stream by signing in to NFL.com
A former prosecutor has asked a Texas agency to pardon a woman who pleaded guilty in a 2004 car crash that killed her fiance but which her attorney says was caused by a faulty General Motors ignition switch. Candice Anderson pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five years of probation for the death of her fiance, Gene Mikale Erickson, in an East Texas crash. In a letter to the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, Leslie Poynter Dixon, the former Van Zandt County district attorney, said she would have dismissed the case if she had known the crash's true cause.
Authorities in Iraq say bombings targeting Shiite districts have killed 15 people in and around Baghdad. Police officials say a bomb exploded Sunday night near a cafe in A Shiite district on the eastern edge of Baghdad, killing four people and wounding 14 others. Another evening bomb blast near a small restaurant killed four people and wounded 11 others in A southeastern suburb. Earlier, a bomb went off at a bus stop in the northeastern suburbs of the capital, killing four people and wounding nine.
As the Grateful Dead prepare to bid you goodnight with one final Fare Thee Well show at Chicago's Soldier Field Sunday night, President Barack Obama, a longtime Chicagoan, has paid tribute to the long-running jam legends with a message congratulating the group on their 50th anniversary and enduring legacy. Obama wrote, "Here's to fifty years of the Grateful Dead, an iconic American band that embodies the creativity, passion and ability to bring people together that makes American music so great. Enjoy this weekend's celebration of your fans and legacy. And as Jerry [Garcia] would say, 'Let there be songs to fill the air."
At least eight people have died and 37 others were wounded in shootings across Chicago this Fourth of July weekend. Among those who died was a 7-year-old boy who was shot while watching fireworks in Humboldt Park with his father just before midnight Saturday. Police said Amari Brown and his father were standing on the sidewalk in the 1100 block of North Harding when gunfire erupted around them, striking Amari and a 26-year-old woman, who was transported to John H. Stroger, Jr.
Vanessa Williams tied the knot with her fiance, Jim Skrip, on the Fourth of July. A representative for the singer-actress said Sunday that Williams and Skrip wed a day earlier. This is the third marriage for Williams, who was previous married to public relations consultant Ramon Hervey and former Los Angeles Laker Rick Fox. The 52-year-old Williams, a former Miss America contestant, has released eight studio albums and received several Emmy nominations for her performance on ABC's "Ugly Betty.
Kit Harington appears to have gotten himself into a hairy situation. The 28-year-old hottie was recently seen sporting curly, shoulder-length hair, the same style worn by his Game of Thrones character, Jon Snow. So what's the issue? Well, on the season 5 finale of the HBO mega hit, Snow appeared to meet his demise at the hands of the people he considered his friends and comrades, Julius Caesar-style. And while Game of Thrones is known for breaking fans' hearts with the killings of beloved characters, the series is set in the land of fantasy, and has stuff like, oh, you know, dragons and magic and zombie-like White Walkers. So, theoretically, "dead" can mean "mostly dead" or "slightly alive." Or, well, "not dead." Co-star Emilia Clarke, whose character Daenerys Targaryen commands said dragons (or thinks she does), recently said she gave Snow a "50/50 chance" of surviving the bloody and seemingly deathly betrayal.

According to Bernoulli's principle, when an incompressible fluid passes from a large area into a smaller one, as when a wide pipe funnels into a narrow passage, the fluid's velocity rapidly increases. That idea has dozens of practical uses, from the operation of airplane wings to the function of your automobile's carburetor. It's a key part of computer production and the basis of cutting-edge work in the field of hydraulics. And, as strange as it might sound, the legacy work of 18th century European mathematician Daniel Bernoulli also adequately describes the process behind and product of Moms, the fifth and best album to date by Portland's Menomena.
Guards was formed in New York City when Richie James Follin returned from a European tour to a recording studio with nothing in it but a broken electric 12-string guitar and an omnichord. He wrote and recorded a few songs for his little sister to sing on, but ended up singing on the songs himself. He enlisted the help of his friends (Caroline Polachek of Chairlift, James Richardson of MGMT, Loren Shane Humphrey of Willowz) and family (Madeline Follin of Cults) to guest on some songs and they spread the word without his knowledge via twitter and the internet. Then, he decided to give the songs away for free.

However, he was entered in the F-Zero GP to test his skills and artificial intelligence response to the extreme situations a pilot has to deal with. He has a very high IQ as well, which makes him overall a nearly perfect android. All he has left to do is win the Grand Prix.MachineThe Great Star, despite being a bulky machine, has terrible body strength. Its grip has a very low rating as well. What the Great Star has going for it is acceleration and boost power; however, it doesn't quite make up for its slippery feel and poor grip, which means that it is one of the hardest F-Zero machines to master.

This Seat Leon Cupra R shouldn't exist. Because when the lesser Leon Cupra was launched three years ago, Seat argued that 237bhp was more than enough power to make that car entertaining and therefore you shan't be needing any more power through the front wheels, thank you very much.
But then Ford came along and spoiled the party. Or started it, depending on your point of view. The Focus RS had 300bhp and all of a sudden anything with less than 250bhp seemed a bit passé. Willy-waving ensued: if one make does it, the rest all feel obliged to follow. Fortunately, Seat is owned by Volkswagen and the Scirocco R has just been launched with an engine that'll do nicely.
This is a 262bhp, 258lb ft, 2.0-litre turbocharged four cylinder motor - not quite on the same level as the RS, but with a price tag of about £23,000 (Seat will confirm the cost at the end of this year), the Cupra R is significantly cheaper.
It also pursues a similar ethos to the Focus, one of blunt power. The Cupra R gets the same unit as the Cupra, but with a bit of ECU tweaking and increased turbo pressure, power jumps to 262bhp. It's certainly not slow: 0-62mph is quoted as 6.2 seconds and it feels every bit as quick. The Focus is only 0.3 seconds faster and on real-world journeys and real-world roads, you'll never be able to tell the difference between the two. That 0.3 only counts for something when you're playing Top Trumps.
In-gear acceleration is also impressive because the turbo comes on-song smoothly at 1,800rpm, so even when you're trundling along at 70mph in sixth gear on the motorway, you never have to reach for fifth to get past middle-lane dawdlers. Seat seems to be aware of this, because it's taken the bizarre decision to fit a change-up indicator in the Cupra R. No, this isn't the normal hot-hatch 'please change gear otherwise the engine will explode' light, this is a change-up adviser to remind you that you really should be in a higher gear for the sake of economy. Odd in a hot hatch, even in one that manages a claimed 34.8mpg. Get the dealer to turn it off at the first service, I say.
Any suggestion of a Zen attitude is extinguished above 2,800rpm, with savage power delivery and a fantastic roar from the exhaust. Fortunately, the turbo induction noise doesn't drown it out, so the car sounds purer and more mechanical than other hot hatches. And because the turbo is so flexible, it's easy to drive fast everywhere.
There's so much grip on offer that understeer is never a worry. I drove it on soaking wet B-roads and never felt like I'd overdone it into a tight corner - turn in and the nose grabs the tarmac like a dog with a bone and won't let go. There is an electronic substitute for a limited-slip diff on the front wheels rather than a mechanical device like in the Ford, but you can't feel it working.
On the one hand, that's good. It operates by applying the brake to the wheel with less grip, so if you could feel it that would be a bit unnerving as the brakes would be constantly snatching. But equally, I'd like a bit more adjustability - I'd like to feel an LSD dragging the nose back in if I apply more power. You pick a line through a corner in the Cupra R and that's the line it will follow. There's no adjustment possible mid-bend and the blunt throttle doesn't help.
Grip is impressive, but it's not as much fun as other cars in the class. A bit of adjustability is good because it lets you feel the car pivot around you, as though you're at the centre of its universe, integral to the way it's working through corners. In the Cupra R, you get the impression that you're sat on top of the car, not in it and it doesn't draw you in as much as the Focus RS. The RS bear-hugs you, the Cupra R politely shakes you by the hand.
There's nothing wrong with the steering, or the body control. Both are tight and precise, and the steering is mighty impressive for its general lack of torque steer. Even on those streaming B-roads, it never once jumped and kicked in my hands under full acceleration, not without being provoked. But the suspension could do with a bit more compliance. It's stiffer than the Cupra all round - 35 per cent harder front, 30 per cent rear - and you really feel it around town and on the motorway. It never settles and is constantly chattering away over small bumps. You rarely sit still in your seat because the Cupra R is constantly fidgeting and all that movement is transmitted straight through to your arse. It doesn't bounce around in a crazy fashion on a B-road and feels well controlled - you never get the impression that it'll skip off one bump and into the nearest hedge. So it's stiff, alright, and if you like stiff, then that's OK.
Cosmetically, the Cupra R is very similar to the ordinary Leon Cupra, but with a couple of discreet R badges on the nose and boot. There's nothing dramatic about the Seat. The R has got enough road presence, but it's certainly not as overtly lairy as the Focus RS: no enormous wings here.
Inside you'll find the usual sporty seats, plus a leather steering wheel with an Audi RS4-style flat bottom, which is plastic but looks OK. Trouble is, the build quality is shonky - there are crude join lines all over it and sadly the rest of the cabin isn't much better. Looks good, feels a bit flimsy. The aircon controls feel like they'll come off in your hand, they're so light and twirly. Still, at least the new satnav (optional at roughly £775) works well and an iPod integrates really beautifully with all the stereo controls and the nav screen.
But the interior isn't why the Cupra R doesn't score higher. It all comes down to the chassis. This prevents the Cupra R getting anything better than 13/20 because the car sits awkwardly between two schools of hot hatch thought. It's not as adjustable or lairy as the Focus, or as comfortable as the Golf GTI. It's good value for money at about £23K, and it looks great on paper, but it's not as brilliant an all-round as it should be. That won't put off Seat devotees who crave the power and love the styling and will be placing orders at dealers next January. But we think it could - and should - be better.

Grove Dodge in Spruce Grove
Employees at the Windsor Assembly Plant have participated in Sparky's Toy Drive for the past ten years, and this year, they donated more than ever before. All of the toys they accumulated for the toy drive filled up five Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country minivans that were used to deliver the toys, which will go to underprivileged children to help brighten up their holidays.
The toys were among thousands delivered to the Windsor Fire Department, which includes Sparky the Fire Dog who the toy drive is named for. The Chrysler Windsor Assembly Plant has donated toys regularly throughout the past ten years to the toy drive in a total of 30 minivans. Toys donated by the plant over the past decade amount to roughly $100,000, and they have been able to reach around 30,000 children in the area.
The Windsor Assembly Plant is most known for producing the Dodge Grand Caravan (http://www.grovedodgechrysler.com/

Hi.My name is Manteca and can you guess which animal shelter I came from...drum roll....Manteca!
I was part of a group 9 rabbits that were dumped at the Manteca shelter. That put the shelter in crisis. They were just not able to house all of us, so SaveABunny was part of a coalition of rescue groups that stepped in to try to save us. It was touch and go, but I made it out as did another bunny at SaveABunny, now named Chocolate. I am very grateful to be here in a safe place with people who love me.
I am a really sweet and gentle girl who is ready to start a fresh new life. I am gentle, calm and eager to be loved. I am just looking for the right place with people to be my family. I'm a nice girl and ready to love you. Please meet me soon!
"Reflection Of Compassion" is a lovingly commissioned series of original watercolor and gouache illustrations created especially for SaveABunny Rabbit Rescue by artist Elizabeth Koval Maffeo. (All images copyright 2008 SaveABunny. All rights reserved.)

Arizona Diamondbacks
Gibson: 'Chavez is a great addition to our team'
The Arizona Diamondbacks have come to an agreement with former All-Star third baseman Eric Chavez.
Speaking with Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo, Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson confirmed, pending a physical, the gold glove third baseman will be making the move to Phoenix. With the deal all but assured, Chavez will become the second veteran player signed to the D-backs in the last 24 hours. Outfielder Eric Hinske agreed to a one year deal with Arizona on Tuesday.
"I know [Chavez] is a worker. Our interest in Eric, Hinske and Chavez, is that they're veteran guys," Gibson said, noting their comfort with hitting in high leverage situations. "But for our situational hitting, they're guys that know how to do that and can be counted on to do that and beyond what they can do individually, I think it's just a great addition to our team."
Gibson said Chavez will play a major role for the team in 2013.
"I see Chavez probably getting a lot of playing time, third base and first base, maybe 300 or 400 plate appearances," said Gibson. "He's had an injury past and it's going to be important that we are able to close this deal out. I'm going to have to be very, very alert to not push him too far and get to where there's an injury situation."
Splitting time between first base, third base and designated hitter last year, Chavez had his most productive season in recent memory. He finished the 2012 season with a .281 batting average, 16 home runs and 37 runs batted for the AL East-winning New York Yankees.
"He had a very good year last year and he played in a very tough league last year," said Gibson. "So certainly we'll try and use him to our advantage."

We are an independent group of scuba diving professionals with more than 75 combined years' experience and many thousands of dives in Asia. We have examined what's on offer in Asia and can direct you towards what we feel are the best in terms of safety, professionalism and enjoyment.
Most websites want to sell you a Dive Course, Dive Package or Dive Travel. We want to give you advice. Those good Dive Centres who are good enough to meet Asia Diving Packages exacting standards and work along side Scuba Diving Malaysia are referred by Scuba Diving Malaysia – and then only when they have satisfied your requirements as well as our standards.
Because not all that's on offer is what it should be. There are Dive Centres that outsource important training facilities rent a 'classroom' without the technical facilities needed for modern teaching methods. Some even rent their scuba equipment and scuba tanks so they have no control over its maintenance or safety. Some retain no permanent Instructors. And so on.

47 year old woman | Fairfield, CA, USA | Seeking men 35-50 within 50 miles
Looking for the one....
About me: I'm down-to-earth, honest, genuine and fun. Life is about love and laughter. My philosophy is to enjoy every second I have and when I look back someday, I'd rather regret a few things I've done, than the things I didn't do. I'm adventurous, spontaneous and have a thirst for trying and learning new things. I've worked hard for everything I have and I take nothing for granted. I have a career I love, friends, hobbies, and overall a full life. All I'm missing is that special someone to share it all with! I am loyal, loving, kind, giving, strong, and driven. I'm often described as "dynamic"; I'm versatile and can fit in anywhere from a dive bar to a board room. I expect a mate who is just as dynamic and versatile. I'm a professional woman with a great career, but I also have a very fun adventurous side. The man I will invite into my life will be dynamic, strong, honest, nurturing, caring, considerate, driven, successful, intelligent, funny, and just an all around good guy. I am also looking for someone who has taken some time to get to know himself, and strives for improvement. Introspection, self awareness and emotional well-being are important. I'm looking for someone who is tired of the whole dating scene and ready to meet a really genuine, quality woman. Someone who knows that relationships take work and is willing to invest his time toward building something real.

This week, I would like to present to you Israel's sweetest invention: Max Brenner!
The chocolate store chain has now stores in the USA, Australia, the Philippines, Singapore, but it all started with a small store in Ra'anana, Israel (my hometown.) Inn 1996, Max Fichtman and Oded Brenner started operating a small shop, selling handmade out of the ordinary chocolates in all kinds and flavors. Brenner said he came to see chocolate as "an emotional product that should be experienced through all senses," and this was probably what made Max Brenner (a combination of the founders' names) to such a success.
By 1999, Fichtman and Brenner had opened ten chocolate shops. Later, Brenner bought out his partner and embraced the Chocolate by the Bald Man concept, adopting the nickname Max. In 2001, the chain became part of the Strauss Group, Israel's second-largest food and beverage company. Since then, Max Brenner has become a second name to "chocolate culture," operating a chain of stores and "chocolate bars" that has taken chocolate to the next level. Feel free to locate the nearest Max Brenner store/ cafe'/ bar, or ask your Israeli friends to send you a sample of some high-quality chocolate! Oh, and don't worry – it's Kosher.
Watch the videos and let me know what you think! Are you in for a bite? You can follow Israelife on Facebook here.

The Baltimore Orioles, quiet all offseason, might finally be turning active. The Orioles are pursuing a trade for Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Jason Kubel and also are interested in Detroit Tigers right-hander Rick Porcello, according to major league sources. No deal appears close, and it seems unlikely that the Orioles would acquire both players. Kubel, 30, is owed $7.5 million next season, plus a $1 million buyout. Porcello, 24, recently avoided arbitration by agreeing to a $5.1 million salary for 2013. Other possibilities for the Orioles include free-agent left-hander Joe Saunders and Cubs left fielder Alfonso Soriano, who is available in a trade. Soriano, however, is the least likely option, sources said. Saunders, 31, is seeking a three-year deal, sources say. Soriano, 36, is owed $36 million over the next two years. The Cubs would need to assume the bulk of that obligation for a deal to happen, and Soriano would need to waive his no-trade clause. To this point, the Ori...
