This was the last time Nana ever saw her mother and has forgotten what she looks like. Nana's grandmother was a very strict and careful elder, she refused to let Nana wear the colors pink and red because she didn't want Nana O. to turn men on like her mother did.During high school Nana become a punk rebel once she met Nobu Terashima who introduced her to old punk and rock music such as the Sex Pistols. Sometime later she was accused of prostitution and was expelled from her high school when she didn't try to plead innocent .As her grandmother was getting older she died from an unknown fatal illness Nana believed her decisions are what killed her grandmother. During the winter of when she died Nana bought herself a red dress as she wasn't permitted to wear the color before along with pink.Nana wore this red dress when Nobu took her to a punk concert. this is where Nana first met her boyfriend Ren Honjo. It was practically love at first sight as Nana was smitten over him during the whole concert she only had her eyes on Ren.After this night Nobu, Yasu, and Ren were planning on making their own punk band and wanted a female singer to attract more record sales and fans. Ren offered Nana to join the band as their lead singer of Black Stones. Right away this became one of the most popular bands in Japan as there was a quick cult following. Many people liked Nana's punk Vivienne Westwood style, Nana eventually got a tattoo of a lotus which in Japan means Ren. The two lovebirds moved in together and lived a happy life until Ren told her that he was offered a big record deal from Blast to play with the band Trapnest in Tokyo. Even though Ren and Nana still loved each other they didn't want to go through a long distance relationship as they saw no point in it so from here the relationship ended.THE BEGINNINGTo get her mind off of Ren Nana decided to follow her dreams to become a successful singer, Nana moved to Tokyo and re-formed Blast with Nobu, Yasu, and their new bassist member Shin. During the train ride to Tokyo Nana met a girl named Nana Komatsu , a sweet girl who can't make up her mind yet has big dreams like Nana O. The two Nana's decided to get an apartment (numbered 707 and Nana is the Japanese word for seven) together so they could split the bills despite their different personalities the two girls became best friends over time. So the girls wouldn't get confused with their names Nana O. gave Nana K. the nickname "Hachi" which is the number eight in Japanese and the name of the famous dog from Tokyo. Nana O. began to have a maternal side when it comes to Hachi especially if anyone would try to steal Nana K. from Nana O. Nana went so far that she even threatened Hachi's boyfriend Shoji who cheated on Hachi.Overtime, Hachi realized Nana was the lead singer of the band Black Stones who was dating Ren.Hachi decided to take Nana to a Trapnest concert hoping to reunite Ren and Nana together. At first,Nana refused to go but to get Hachi off of her back Nana eventually caved in. For the first time in two years, Nana and Ren locked eyes on each other at the concert and on that night they showed their love to one another. To thank Hachi Nana introduced her to the Trapnest's bassist, Takumi, whom Hachi was starstruck over.Takumi was a very heartless person who slept with different women everyday, this made Nana wonder if he was suitable for her friend Hachi.It became obvious that during the two years Nana and Ren were seperated for that they grew somewhat apart despite that they still love each other. Before Ren moved to Tokyo the two would share deep dark secrets and talk to one another but Nana lost some of her trust in Ren. Instead Nana confides in Yasu (who's like a father figure to Nana) whenever she has a problem. The reason to this is that Nana has a grudge for Ren abandoning her just like how Nana's mother left her when she was young.Eventually, Blast gets a record deal at Gaia Records and quickly becomes popular overnight. This leads to paparazzi following the band around, rumors about Ren having affairs, and reveals the location of Nana's mother. To comfort Nana about the romance rumors Ren proposes to her and asks her to move in, Nana has agreed to this yet she still questions herself about the relationship. During this period of time, Nana feels she's losing Hachi to her husband Takumi as Hachi chooses him over her. Nana holds a grudge on the band Trapnest since Ren abandoned her for their band and the fact Ren admires the lead singer Reira. Nana hopes to reconnect with Hachi as the two girls are practically like sisters that share a bond with the apartment 707.Sometime later, the two girls see each other at Reira's Birthday party after Hachi reveals she's engage to Takumi which Nana isn't too thrilled about. A company magazine named Search confirms Nana's mother is alive and her location is exposed to the public audience. It ends up Nana's mother has a a child named Misato Uehara who the band knows as Mai Tsuzuki, Hachi's friend.Later on, Blast is unable to play concerts due to Shin and Ryouko being found with marijuana in possession and gets arrested. Gaia offers Nana a solo contract for the time being as Blast will be on hiatus waiting for Shin to come out of jail. Ren tried to quit his addiction of drugs to make Nana happy so she wouldn't leave him. Towards later chapters Ren is driving looking around for Reira to have a band meeting with Trapnest before Nana's birthday party. While on drugs he mistakes a cat for Nana and crashes his car resulting into a tragic death that made a major impact on Nana.While Nana is preparing for her solo career Yasu delivers her the news that Ren is dead and the funeral will be in town. Nana attends the funeral but doesn't shed a tear as she's still stunned she lost her other half. After his death, Nana starts having panic attacks causing her to have breathing problems.PRESENTNana decides to leave Tokyo as it reminds her of the past so she moves to England and dyes her hair blonde. Her current job is being a singer at a underground pub. Though most of the public believe Nana is dead except for Blast once they received pictures of Nana wearing a red dress showing her shoulder with the lotus tattoo singing. Hachi wants to go looking for Nana so they could be reunited again.

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg has announced this Thursday that the powerful prescription painkillers would from now on be restricted in the emergency rooms at public hospitals. The limitation over the painkillers in the 11 hospitals in New York City is a collective attempt to bring an outbreak of prescription drug abuse in the city.
That's a fact. Prescription painkillers are being abused to a concerning extent, with some 250,000 citizens of age 12 years and above doing the same. Not only have they been causing an augment in hospital admissions, but also deaths. In addition, the Medicare fraud by doctors also rises with false prescriptions and violent crime such as holdups.
It is being said that the move means prescription of the narcotic drugs to public hospital patients would now be not more than three days. The same would likely bring a decline in the level of dependence of people on these painkillers.
Amongst the medicines being stopped are long-acting painkillers like Fentanyl patches, methadone and OxyContin. The latter is the remedy commonly used for easing chronic backache and arthritis, the report finds in the meantime. It has been told that the prescriptions, stolen, destroyed or lost, would also not be refilled.

WHY did a Boeing airliner with an excellent safety record hit the ground too early and crash at San Francisco airport on 6 July? The US National Transportation Safety Board's investigation will probably look not just at pilot training but also at the levels of automation in modern cockpits, which some believe can make pilots too reliant on technology.
What is clear is that Asiana Airlines flight 214 was flying far too slowly as it approached the runway. The Boeing 777-200ER's flight recorder shows that it was travelling at 190 kilometres per hour 3 seconds before impact – below the 253 kilometres per hour needed for a safe landing. The crew realised that they were descending too quickly and tried, too late, to regain height.
It is too early to say what led to these events. However, the pilots were landing without the help of a system that guides aircraft on to a glide path to the runway, as the equipment is currently out of service at San Francisco airport. Investigators may want to probe whether that was a factor.

No complaints and no regrets as long as I'm still chasing dreams and placing bets..... So here's to life and someone to share it with......
Alright, I am going to give this thing a try. Even if its a long shot I have to see what happens. First, I have a deep appreciation for everything God has given me. I truly enjoy my freedom and all that life has to offer. I have a strong sense of humor and will find a way to laugh at just about anything including myself. We're only put on this earth for a short amount of time so might as well get as many laughs as possible. I enjoy being old fashion at times and can find satisfaction in the finer things as well as the simple. I believe romance can just as easily be found at an out of the way, hole in the wall place as it can be found at a five star restaurant. I also enjoy having the heart of a young boy (Just hope he doesn't need it back any time soon.) I am self employed and appreciate the freedom and blessing of being my own boss. I like to be spontaneous and travel, take short getaways and enjoy outdoor activities. Nothing is more captivating to me than the warm clear water of a tropical beach. I love watching sports but at the same time It's not always life or death. All I ask is to just please cover the point spread! And I absolutely never forget how important God and family values are to me and how much they impact me in my daily life. Yes I am looking for that great love who is also a great friend. We all know relationships don't happen overnight so having things in common to share is very important. So if I send you an e-mail its just not because your another pretty face, I actually read your profile and believe we may share interests. And yes age appropriate matters. I've always said "If shes never used a pay phone before, good chance she's too young for me". Also, I'm not looking to just be friends or date someone if its not going anywhere. I am interested in a relationship that happens to last longer than a keg at an Irish picnic. I am looking for that someone who still seeks adventure and knows how to have fun. Someone with a great sense of humor and has the ability to laugh at every opportunity. She is always a lady but never forgets her youthful and playful side. Has structure and focus in life but at the end of the day will take the time to relax, look at the stars and share with me the wisdom that can be found in a glass of wine.

Julio Vilar Photography
As a child, Julio Vilar always wanted to photograph his family's gatherings; at every birthday party and family reunion, he'd be the one trying to hold the camera instead of posing in front of it. These days, Vilar snaps shots all over New York City, capturing the dynamic angles and giant sea monsters that fill the city skyline as well as the subtle details of subway stations and neighborhood storefronts. Families, though, still remain his favorite subject. He specializes in family portraiture and infant photography, giving parents tangible memories of their children growing up.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Melanie Godsell, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Wednesday, 14 March 2007 12:00AM
The revamped packaging, by Lewis Moberly, will be rolled out from this month across Europe and the Middle East. The new design will cover Skincare Wipes, Fragrance Free and Extra Protection Wipes in all formats, including single packs, which contain 24 wipes, standard 64-wipe packs and all multipacks.
The brand's signature pink colour has been retained and is used across the left-hand side of each pack to create consistency when the packs are merchandised together. The right-hand side carries a colour-coded band to differentiate each variant; a blue band signifies Skincare Wipes, with white for Fragrance Free and green for Extra Protection.
The company has retired the mother and baby duo seen on previous packs and cast a new infant, who is pictured moving toward the consumer with his mother in the background. The photograph is framed in a teardrop shape to emphasise the brand's long-running 'No more tears' positioning, with the strapline appearing on a red teardrop device alongside the photo.
A Johnson & Johnson spokesman said it was important to use photography and graphics to differentiate its offering because laminate brick packs are used across all brands in this category. He added that the existing packaging had not been communicating its premium and gentle positioning.
The brand had a 27% value share of the UK baby wipes category in the year to March, according to IRI. Johnson & Johnson increased its sales by 20% in 2005-2006, up from £130m-£135m to £155m-£160m in the 52 weeks ending April 2006, according to TNS Worldpanel data for Marketing's Biggest Brands.

A Heavenly Concert in the Gates of Hell

For a brief moment I grasped this elusive sense of commonality as Catholics and Jews stood together in the former gates of hell listening to sublime music invoking solidarity, compassion and the universal yearning for heaven.
If God is All-Good and All-Powerful, how do we explain the existence of evil? The problem of evil, especially human suffering, exercised classical Muslim theologians as much it does Western philosophers, theologians and scientists today.

Rio de Janeiro Suspends Payments Over Oil Royalty Dispute
March 7 (Bloomberg) -- The government of Rio de Janeiro state suspended all non-obligatory payments except for payroll over an oil royalties dispute only 16 months before it hosts the soccer World Cup final.
The state will halt payments until the Supreme Court rules on a royalties bill passed by Congress today that would reduce Rio's revenues, according to an e-mail from the press office of Governor Sergio Cabral. The suspension will be applied to all non-mandatory payments, said an official who declined to be identified because of internal policy and gave no further detail.
Rio de Janeiro is one of the three major oil-producing states in Brazil and has opposed a bill that President Dilma Rousseff vetoed but Congress ratified yesterday. The suspension is designed to pressure Rousseff to compensate revenue shortfalls or get the Supreme Court to block the bill, said Rafael Cortez, political analyst with Tendencias Consultoria Integrada.
"It's an attempt to get public attention," Cortez said by telephone from Sao Paulo. "The government is not interested in Rio suspending investments, particularly not ahead of the World Cup."
Under the new law, royalties that now go exclusively to the producing states will be distributed among all 27 states. It will cost Rio de Janeiro 4 billion reais ($2 billion) this year and could provoke the state's financial collapse, Cabral told reporters Nov. 7. Oil royalties in Brazil totaled 15.6 billion reais in 2012.
Rio de Janeiro will challenge the bill before the Supreme Court, Cabral said at an event earlier today. He said that Rousseff considered parts of the bill unconstitutional when she vetoed it last year. Sao Paulo and Espirito Santo states also said they would challenge the law.
"The proposal to retaliate is a trump card that Cabral is playing to see what he can get," said Marly Motta, a local history professor at the Getulio Vargas Foundation in Rio de Janeiro. "It might work, it might not."

The farce gives way to unironic heroism: the friend dies gallantly, sacrificing himself to cover his men's retreat.
With fewer than 10,000 fighters ISIS forced the retreat of the better-armed Iraqi army forces many times its size.
As such, the true motivations behind the E.U.'s retreat from its July guidelines are unknown.
c.1300, "a step backward;" late 14c., "act of retiring or withdrawing; military signal for retiring from action or exercise," from Old French retret, noun use of past participle of retrere "draw back," from Latin retrahere "draw back, withdraw, call back," from re- "back" (see re-) + trahere "to draw" (see tract (n.1)). Meaning "place of seclusion" is from early 15c.; sense of "establishment for mentally ill persons" is from 1797. Meaning "period of retirement for religious self-examination" is from 1756.
early 15c., "to draw in, draw back, leave the extremities," from retreat (n.) and in part from Old French retret, past participle of retrere. Meaning "to fall back from battle" is mid-15c. Related: Retreated; retreating.

Leah Siegel, one of ESPN's first female producers, has died after a battle with cancer. She was 43:
She was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in August 2008, shortly after the birth of her third child, Oliver. That fall, she was featured in a front-page story in The Dallas Morning News. The story of her battle inspired thousands of strangers to write her. Over the past two years, nearly 50,000 visits were logged to her web page.
Siegel also inspired dozens of her Lakewood neighborhood families to show their support in the annual Komen Dallas Race for the Cure. The group was among the top fundraising teams.
"Leah loved Eric and her kids and her work," said ESPN reporter Ed Werder. "In the end, I agree with a colleague who told me today that she would rather we remember the good times rather than wallowing in sadness and dwell on our inability to fathom the damned unfairness of this sad ordeal."
This story was sent to me by a Jewish friend. I can't determine whether Siegel was, in fact, Jewish. But if so, she would have been, as a woman and a Jew in field of covering professional sports, truly a stranger in a strange land.

An Omaha police sergeant hopes his story of how the gift of blood saved his life reflects how important it is to donate blood.
Sgt. Paul Latschar was shot by a known gang member while on duty.
"Before I knew it, I was hit with two, three bullets," Latschar said.
As the shooter ran off, Latschar called for help as he fought for his life.
Bullets ripped a major blood vessel near his pelvis. Dr. Marcus Balters and his team at Alegent Creighton Health Creighton University Medical Center had just minutes to get 20 units of blood into his body to save his life.

2008 Temple Owls
Nov. 28
Temple 27 … Akron 6
Temple busted open a tight game by turning turnovers into late scores with 21
unanswered points in the final eight minutes. Adam DiMichele ran for two
four-yard touchdowns and Marcellous Grigsby ran for two short scores in a just
over a minute and a half. Akron was only able to manage two Igor Iveljic field
goals in the second half.
Player of the game:
Temple S Alex Joseph made 11 tackles and broke up two
Stat Leaders: Akron - Passing: Chris Jacquemain, 20-39, 166
yds,3 INT
Rushing: Dennis Kennedy, 25-153. Receiving: Deryn Bowser, 5-48
Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 15-30, 220 yds, 2 INT
Rushing: Adam DiMichele, 12-50, 2 TD. Receiving: Jason Harper,
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... With the world
there for the taking, Akron lost its final three games to blow the MAC East, a
winning record, and a good season. The defense did a great job against Temple,
holding tough throughout, but the offense put the D in a bad position late too
many times and there wasn't enough offensive pop to make up the slack. This was
a good season overall that didn't close out well, but the offense, until the
loss to Temple, worked. The defense needs to get healthy up front going into
next year.
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... It might seem like
a disappointment, but going 5-7 is a major step for Temple. Considering that
five of the losses game by six points or fewer, the Owls were this close
to having a special year. Step one this off-season will be to settle the
quarterback situation. Adam DiMichele became the offense, carrying the team on
his back at times. Al Golden should be around for another year, but he's going
to be a hot head coaching prospect if he can do just a wee bit more next season.
This is still a young team, but it's loaded with veterans.

Temple 55 …
Eastern Michigan 52
Temple QB Adam
DiMichele threw a school-record six touchdown passes and ran for a
score, but Eastern Michigan wouldn't go away as Andy Schmitt threw the
ball 76 times with three touchdown passes and two fourth quarter scoring
runs. Neither defense could come up with a stop in the back and fourth
shootout, highlighted by a wild fourth quarter with 49 points scored. A
two-yard Dwayne Priest touchdown run pulled EMU within three with under
four minutes to play, but DiMichele connected with Jason Harper for a
45-yard score to put the game away.
Player of the game:
Temple WR Bruce Francis caught nine passes for
125 yards and four touchdowns. EMU's Tyler Jones and Jacory Stone
combined for 35 catches for 337 yards and three touchdowns in a losing
Stat Leaders: Eastern Michigan - Passing: Andy
Schmitt, 50-76, 484 yds, 3 TD
Rushing: Andy Schmitt, 7-20, 2 TD. Receiving: Jacory
Stone, 18-152, 1 TD
Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 21-37, 370 yds, 6
Rushing: Joe Jones, 13-31. Receiving: Bruce Francis,
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... Adam
DiMichele is closing out his Temple career as one of the greatest
quarterbacks, even if the wins haven't always been there. He's setting
Owl records, highlighted by his tremendous game in the win over EMU, and
he's carrying the offense on his back game in and game out over the
second half of the year. This might be a disappointing season
considering Temple was hoping for a MAC East title, but a win over Akron
next week would mean a 5-7 season. That's not bad.
Nov. 12
Kent State 41 ... Temple
Kent State cranked out 561 yards of total offense with QB Julian Edelman
throwing a seven-yard touchdown pass to Sam Kirkland and running for three
scores, but the defense had to hang on. Temple got a 51-yard touchdown catch
from Jason Harper in the fourth quarter to tie the score, but Kent State pulled
ahead with just over six minutes to play on a 26-yard Nate Reed field goal.
Temple had a few final shots, stalling on one drive, but got the ball back late
and fumbled it away around midfield to finally end the shootout. The Golden
Flashes, who got up 21-3 early before Temple came back, ran for 329 yards and
controlled the ball for 36:28.
Player of the game:
Kent State QB Julian Edelman ran 22 times for 144 yards and three touchdowns,
and completed 18-of-26 passes for 232 yards and a touchdown with an interception
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 21-28, 340
yds, 3 TD
Rushing: Kee-ayre Griffin, 29-87, 1 TD. Receiving: Jason Harper,
Kent State - Passing: Julian Edelman, 18-26, 232 yds, 1 TD,
Rushing: Eugene Jarvis, 23-185, 1 TD. Receiving: Shawn Bayes, 5-60
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... How many painful
losses can one team take? Temple is making its own messes, it had to play
catch-up all game long against Kent State, but the program still has to be
wondering what it has to do to win a close game. On the plus side, Adam
DiMichele had a great day, and Jason Harper was unstoppable against the porous
KSU secondary, catching 10 passes with two touchdowns, but the lack of a run
defense against Julian Edelman and Eugene Jarvis did the Owls in. The Temple
defense simply couldn't get off the field. Yeah, the record isn't going to be
appreciably better, but the team has been so much more competitive and so much
better that it's not fair to call this the same old Temple.
Nov. 1
Navy 33 … Temple 27 OT
In an improbable win, Navy rallied from 20 points down in the fourth quarter
with Ricky Dobbs throwing a 22-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Thiel, Eric Kettani
running for a one-yard score, and as Temple tried to run out the clock, Clint
Sovie picked up a Kee-ayre Griffin fumble and returned it 42 yards for a score
with 37 seconds remaining. In overtime, Dobbs ran for a one-yard score, and
Temple couldn't answer as tight end Steve Maneri dropped a pass in the end zone.
On the day, Temple's Adam DiMichele was terrific with three touchdown passes
including two 49-yarders to Bruce Francis and a four-yarder to Maneri before
Navy came up with its rally.
Player of the game:
Navy RB Eric Kettani ran 22 times for 118 yards and a
touchdown, and he caught two passes for eight yards
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 17-29, 282
yds, 3 TD, 1 INT
Rushing: Kee-ayre Griffin, 11-56-, 1 TD. Receiving: Jason Harper,
Navy - Passing: Ricky Dobbs, 5-6, 87 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT
Rushing: Eric Kettani, 22-118, 1 TD. Receiving: Tyree Barnes, 2-34
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... Temple has no one
to blame but itself for the collapse to Navy. This should be a different sort of
heartbreak than the Hail Mary loss to Buffalo; that was a freak play. The loss
to Navy was helped by a dropped pass in the end zone, a fumble to run out the
clock, and a missed extra point. On the plus side, the team played well with
Adam DiMichele showing that he really might be fine to play through the injury
problems that cost him time. With a week off to regroup, the team needs to be
focuses, and DiMichele needs to heal up, with winnable games against Kent State,
Eastern Michigan and Akron to close out the MAC season. Win those three, and
it's off to a bowl.
Oct. 21
Temple 14 ... Ohio 10
Ohio dominated, holding Temple to just 143 yards of total offense, but a bad
punt let to a 45-yard Temple drive and a one-yard Kee-ay touchdown run in the
fourth quarter. Late in the fourth, Ohio's Boo Jackson lost a fumble deep in his
own territory, and Temple took advantage as Adam DiMichele hit Steve Maneri for
a five-yard touchdown catch with less than two minutes to play. Ohio finished
the game with five sacks and held Temple to 1.7 yards per carry. Ohio averaged
1.6 yards per run.
Player of the game:
Temple RB Kee-ay Griffin ran 22 times for 85 yards and
a touchdown
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 9-22, 79
yds, 1 TD
Rushing: Kee-ay Griffin, 22-85, 1 TD. Receiving: Bruce Francis,
Ohio - Passing: Boo Jackson, 23-40, 220 yds
Rushing: Chris Garrett, 14-48, 1 TD. Receiving: Chris Garrett,
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
The offensive line was abysmal,
there wasn't any overall offense, and the passing game was horrible against
Ohio, but Temple still found a way to pull off the win. The team was overdue to
be on the right side of a close victory, and it went to show the value of Adam
DiMichele. Gutting it out, despite being hurt and expected to be out, he did
what he needed to do in the fourth quarter. With a week off to rest, he should
be even better against Navy, and with three weeks until Kent State, he might be
healthy again when MAC plays kicks in again.
Oct. 11
Central Michigan 24 …
Temple 14
Central Michigan used four takeaways and two Dan LeFevour touchdown passes to
Antonio Brown to come up with a tougher-than-expected win. LeFevour was on fire,
completing 10-of-11 passes for 106 yards, but he was knocked out with an ankle
injury. Brian Brunner came in and led the way to the final 10 points of the game
with a 37-yard touchdown pass to Bryan Anderson to provide some breathing room.
Temple got a 17-yard scoring run from Kee-ayre Griffin and a three-yard Bruce
Francis catch in the second to tie it at 14. Temple outgained CMU 301 yards to
Player of the game:
Central Michigan WR Bryan Anderson caught eight passes
for 149 yards and a touchdown
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Chester Stewart, 15-32, 163
yds, 1 TD, 3 INT
Rushing: Kee-ayre Griffin, 12-76, 1 TD. Receiving: Bryan Anderson,
Central Michigan - Passing: Brian Brunner, 7-13, 136 yds, 1
Rushing: Bryan Schroeder, 11-31. Receiving: Bruce Francis, 6-74, 1
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... The defense did its
job keeping the Central Michigan offense in check, but there are still too many
inconsistencies and too many mistakes from Chester Stewart and the passing game.
CMU teed off on the Owl running game, but it didn't matter with Kee-ayre Griffin
coming up with yet another nice performance. Now at 2-5, the season is slipping
away with Ohio a must-win next week. However, if Stewart isn't strong, it'll be
another loss.
Oct. 4
28 … Miami University 10
Temple only came up with 11 first downs and 294 yards of total offense, but it
made the production count as Chester Stewart hit Bruce Francis on touchdown
passes from 42 and six yards out in the fourth quarter and connected with Steve
Maneri on a two-yard touchdown pass in the second. Miami struggled to keep the
offense moving, hurt by four turnovers, with Clay Belton stepping in to replace
an ineffective Daniel Raudabaugh. The RedHawks managed 10 points in the third
quarter with Thomas Merriweather running for a two-yard score.
Player of the game: Temple QB Chester Stewart completed 11-of-23 passes
for 178 yards and three touchdowns with an interception
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Chester Stewart, 11-23, 178
yds, 3 TD, 1 INT
Rushing: Kee-ayre Griffin, 6-36, 1 TD. Receiving: Marquise Liverpool,
Miami University - Passing: Clay Belton, 14-22, 147 yds, 1 INT
Rushing: Thomas Merrriweather, 26-133, 1 TD. Receiving: Jamal Rogers,
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
Chester Stewart wasn't great against Miami University, but he was
great when he had to be. The offense is going to sputter all year long, but the
defense is making up for it with its second great performance. Now comes the
nasty road date at Central Michigan, and since the Owls don't have the firepower
to keep up, they're going to have to force turnovers and take advantage of every
Sept. 27
Michigan 7 … Temple 3
Jake Brownell hit a 45-yard field goal for Temple's lone score, and Juan Nunes
caught a 30-yard touchdown pass in the third for Western Michigan. That was it.
Temple was held to 196 yards of total offense, and while Western Michigan was
held to 288 with just 36 yards rushing. The two teams combined for 18 penalties
and each converted just 4-of-16 third down chances.
Player of the game: Western Michigan QB Tim Hiller went 26-of-42 for 252
yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
Stat Leaders: Western Michigan - Passing: Tim Hiller,
26-42, 252 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT
Rushing: Brandon West, 15-35. Receiving: Jamarko Simmons, 8-67
Temple - Passing: Chester Stewart, 10-20, 60 yds
Rushing: James Nixon, 3-53. Receiving: Bruce Francis, 4-27
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ...
With Adam DiMichele out, the
Temple offense went nowhere. Western Michigan teed off against the run, and
while James Nixon tore off a 43-yard dash, there wasn't much of a ground game.
Freshman Chester Stewart didn't even make a thought of throwing the ball deep,
but the offense will have to open things up on road trips to Miami University
and Central Michigan. With all the offensive issues, the team has to be nearly
perfect. The penalties are going to be a problem if these continue.
Sept. 20
Penn State
45 ... Temple 3
Penn State started out slowly, failing to score in the first quarter. And then
the floodgates opened with a 31-point second quarter with Daryll Clark throwing
two touchdown passes, running for an 11-yard score, and Evan Royster running for
a 32-yard touchdown. The Nittany Lions coasted from there with Stephfon Green
tearing off a 69-yard scoring dash and Chaz Powell adding a seven-yard touchdown
run. Temple was outgained 546 yards to 138 and only managed a 25-yard Jake
Brownell field goal.
Player of the game:
Penn State LB Navorro Bowman had 11 tackles, five
tackles for loss, three sacks, an interception, and a forced fumble.
Stat Leaders: Temple
- Passing:
Chester Stewart, 16-30, 116 yds, 3 INTs
Chester Stewart, 18-15. Receiving: Jason Harper, 3-40
Penn State - Passing: Darryl Clark, 13-20, 196 yds, 2 TDs, 1 INT
Rushing: Stephon Green, 9-132, 1 TD. Receiving: Deon Butler, 4-66
Whoopty doo. What
does it all mean, Basil? ... Penn State was able to blow away Temple by
winning on the line. There's no shame in being steamrolled by a Nittany Lion
team that's unstoppable at the moment, but this is a veteran Owl team that
should've been able to establish something in the second half despite the loss
of QB Adam DiMichele, who got knocked out early with a shoulder injury. There
was no running game to fall back on, and Chester Stewart appeared lost taking
six sacks and throwing three picks.
Sept. 13
Buffalo 30 …
Temple 28
Drew Willy and Naaman Roosevelt connected on a 35-yard Hail Mary as time ran out
to give Buffalo the thrilling win to cap off a terrific game. Temple marched 74
yards in 1:44 with Adam DiMichele hitting Bruce Francis on an 11-yard pass for
the lead with 38 seconds to play, but Willy was able to take the Bulls the 60
yards in five plays for the winning score. DiMichele threw three touchdown
passes and kept the offense moving with his legs, but Willy kept pace with two
short touchdown throws.
Player of the game: Buffalo QB Drew Willy completed 29-of-42 passes for 348
yards and three touchdowns with an interception.
Stat Leaders: Buffalo - Passing: Drew Willy, 29-42, 348 yds, 3
Rushing: Brandon Thermilus, 14-42, 1 TD. Receiving: Naaman
Roosevelt, 8-132, 1 TD
- Passing:
Adam DiMichele, 24-33, 285 yds, 3 TD
Rushing: Adam DiMichele, 12-51. Receiving: Dy'Onne Crudup, 5-41, 1
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... Temple has to find
a way to put the Buffalo heartbreaker in the past right away. The Owls played
good enough to win, and should've won, but it the miraculous Hail Mary will be
what everyone remembers. Adam DiMichele showed he could keep the offense moving
when he was in a passing rhythm. He could do no wrong late in the game, but it
would've been nice if there was a running game to help him out. The defense
stuffed the UB ground game but struggled to get into the backfield.
Sept. 6
Connecticut 12 ...
Temple 9 OT
On a soaked field and in lousy weather conditions, Connecticut got a seven-yard
Donald Brown touchdown run in overtime to end a battle of field goals. Temple's
Jake Brownell hit two field goals for a 6-0 first half lead, but couldn't get
back on the board in the second half. Connecticut got two Tony Ciaravino who
missed three field goals, hit two in the fourth quarter including a 37-yarder
with 6:35 in regulation. However, he missed a 47-yards with just over two
minutes to play. Brownell hit a 21-yard field goal in OT, Connecticut got the TD
run, and it was over.
Player of the game:
Connecticut RB
Donald Brown ran 36 times for 214 yards and a touchdown, while catching a pair
of passes for five yards.
Stat Leaders: Connecticut - Passing: Tyler Lorenzen, 10-22, 86
yds, 1 INT
Rushing: Donald Brown, 36-214, 1 TD. Receiving: Steve Brouse,
Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 11-28, 170 yds, 2 INTs
Rushing: Adam DiMichele, 10-60. Receiving: Travis Shelton,
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... The defense got run
over by Connecticut, but held up until the very end as it bend, but didn't
break. Adam DiMichele couldn't get the passing game going completing just
11-of-28 passes with two interceptions, and while the running game wasn't awful,
it didn't do enough to help keep drives going. The Owls converted just 2-of-15
third down chances and held on to the ball for just 25:11.
Temple 35 ... Army 7
Temple took advantage of two turnovers and a long kickoff return to
jump out to a 28-0 lead midway through the third quarter before Army
finally got on the board with a one-yard Tony Dace run. The Owls got
two short touchdown passes from Adam DiMichele, a 17-yard Morkeith
Brown fumble return for a touchdown and on the opening kickoff of
the second half, a 98-yard kickoff return for a score from Jamal
Player of the game: Temple QB Adam DiMichele complete 15 of 22 passes for
159 yards and two touchdowns with an interception.
Stat Leaders: Temple - Passing: Adam DiMichele, 15-22, 159

Army - Passing: Carson Williams, 6-14, 74 yds,
Rushing: Collin Mooney, 26-81. Receiving: Jameson Carter, 3-32
Whoopty doo. What does it all mean, Basil? ... Temple
did almost everything it could've wanted to in the win over Army.
The defense was terrific, the special teams came through with a few
big plays, and the offense took advantage of its opportunities. Now
the offense has to be more consistent
and has to go on
longer drives. Army's offense held on to the ball for stretches
because of its style, but Temple has to have the ball most than

2008 Early Lookahead
Why to get excited: First of all, head coach Al Golden is still
in Philadelphia at least for another year, Secondly, all the talent from
the decent recruiting classes over the last two seasons is starting to
mature all at once. Want experience? Temple had exactly one senior on
the depth chart for the final game against Western Michigan, fullback
Josh Bundy, and there were only four junior starters. So basically the
4-8 team of last year should be stronger this year, and should be ready
to really rock in 2009.
Why to be grouchy: There's a world of experience, but is there
any real talent? That's still in question. The defense was the MAC's
best, but the offense was the worst with things going in the tank once
QB Adam DiMichele got hurt. The team only scored a combined ten points
in three of the final four games and only went over 24 points once. All
the most promising skill players are still really, really young.
The number one thing to work on is: The offensive line. C Alex
Derenthal is a keeper, but the tackles have to do a far, far better job
in pass protection and the entire front line has to be more physical for
the running game. The special teams also need help after averaging a
mere 18.64 yards per punt return, 5.36 yards per punt return, and 31.86
yards per punt.
Biggest offensive loss: FB Josh Bundy
Biggest defensive loss: None
Best returning offensive player: QB Adam DiMichele, Sr.
Best returning defensive player: DT Andre Neblett, Jr.
2007 Recap
A laughingstock no more, Temple won four games in its first year in
the MAC, or as many as the program had won in its previous four
years combined. Finally playing in a league that better
matches their talent level, the Owls rebounded from an 0-5 start to
go 4-3, including the school's first three-game winning streak since
1990. While the offense was hit-or-miss, the defense came a
long way after September, leading the MAC in total defense and
allowing an average of just 19 points over the final seven games.
Offensive Player of the Year: QB Adam DiMichele
Defensive Player of the Year: S Dominique Harris
Biggest Surprise: The defense. While very young and not so
big, the Owl D showed great range and quickness over the final two
months of the season. Names, such as Junior Galette, Andre Neblett,
and Amara Kamara are unfamiliar to most, but they could be household
names in MAC circles as early as next fall.
Biggest Disappointment: Temple beat Connecticut on Sept. 15.
The refs, however, saw it differently. Although WR Bruce Francis
clearly tapped one foot in the end zone for the apparent winning
score with 40 seconds left, the Big East replay official refused to
reverse the call, denying the Owls a chance at picking off a Big
East opponent.
Looking Ahead: Look out, MAC. Temple has some momentum and a
young head coach that was pursued in December for the opening at
UCLA. Oh, and that team which showed so much progress in 2007 did
so with just one scholarship senior on the entire roster.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. From an earth where Wales, rather than England, was the dominant culture of Great Britain, Morwen Powell was the Captain Britain Corps member from Earth-1282Captain Cymru was first introduced when Excalibur was called before the Omniversal Hub by Saturnyne because their Cross-Time Caper caused huge amounts of disruption to the space-time continuum. While there, they were instructed to surrender teammate Rachel Summers, codenamed Phoenix.When Excalibur sought to seek an audience with Saturnyne herself, in hopes of a better explanation or her interceding on their behalf, Captain Cymru was one of the Corps members engaged in actively preventing them from reaching Saturnyne. Mowen engaged Alistaire Stuart and who she thought was Kitty Pryde. She shot 'Kitty' with a Plastrix gun, designed to ensnare her and inhibit her phasing ability. However, 'Kitty' was actually Rachel Summers in disguise; therefore, Rachel was able to shatter the Plastrix case using her telekinesis and knock Captain Cymru out.As a member of the Captain Britain Corps, has Captain Cymru was present at hte wedding of Meggan and Brian Braddock.The next time Morwen appears, the entire Captain Britain Corps has assembled and are preparing to fight what Roma tells them is a battle to protect all reality. Jim Jaspers and Merlyn have somehow managed to form an alliance and are attempting to regain the control of protecting the Omniverse, a role the mad Merlyn believes his daughter, Roma, has stolen from him. The Corps attacks Jaspers and his army of Furies, and made advances despite losing corpsmen to the Furies. Despite the Corps' victory over the Jaspers/ Merlyn alliance, Merlyn succeeds in killing his daughter.

(Medicamentos de control)
There's a reason for this medicine's name: If your doctor prescribed it for your asthma, you need to take it every day, over a long period of time, to control the condition. Long-term control medicines are sometimes also called controller or maintenance medicines.
Long-term control medicine works slowly over time to keep the airways in the lungs open and clear. It may take days or weeks for long-term control medicine to start working and keep the airways from becoming swollen and narrow. That's why people need to take it each day, even when they feel OK.

LOS ANGELES — Semyon Varla- mov remained stoic throughout his ordeal of being arrested and charged with third-degree assault against his former girlfriend. But it was never hard to see some evidence of stress on his face.
That stress is gone now, replaced by even a hint of a smile Saturday despite a 3-2 shootout loss to the Los Angeles Kings.
The Denver district attorney's office dropped the remaining charge against him Friday, an obvious relief to the young Russian goalie.
"You know what? I'm excited for sure. The process is over," Varlamov said. "Like I've said before, I'm glad to be here today, and just want to say thank you to my teammates, the ownership, the GM and the Avalanche fans for supporting me."
Avs coach Patrick Roy praised Varlamov for his professionalism throughout the trying time.
"From the first day this thing came out, he had the support of his teammates. Now it's behind us. Now let's focus and play hockey," Roy said.
Stastny milestone. Avs center Paul Stastny played in his 500th career game and became the third member of his family to play that many for the franchise, joining father Peter and uncle Anton. Footnotes. Nick Holden, Brad Malone and Ryan Wilson were healthy scratches for the Avs on Saturday. ... Tyson Barrie's assist on Ryan O'Reilly's tying goal in the third period for Colorado extended his career-best point streak to four games.

In 1985, a WHO Working Group presented diagnostic criteria and a classification for solvent-induced chronic toxic encephalopathy (CTE). In the same year, the "Workshop on neurobehavioral effects of solvents" in Raleigh, N.C., USA introduced a somewhat different classification for CTE. The objective of this review is to study the diagnostic procedures that are used to establish the diagnosis of CTE, and the extent to which the diagnostic criteria and classification of the WHO, and the classification of the Raleigh Working Group, are applied. A systematic search of studies on CTE was performed, and the diagnostic criteria and use of the WHO and Raleigh classifications were listed. We retrieved 30 original articles published in English from 1985 to 1998, in which CTE was diagnosed. Only two articles did not report the duration of solvent exposure. The type of solvent(s) involved was described in detail in four articles, poorly in 17 articles, and not at all in nine articles. Tests of general intelligence were used in 19 articles, and tests of both attention and mental flexibility and of learning and memory were used in 18 articles. Exclusion, by interview, of potentially confounding conditions, such as somatic diseases with central nervous effects and psychiatric diseases, was reported in 21 and 16 articles, respectively. In only six of the articles were both the WHO diagnostic criteria and the WHO or Raleigh classifications used. In the future, parameters of exposure, psychological test results, and use of medication that possibly affects psychological test results should always be described. We list some advantages and disadvantages of the Raleigh and WHO classifications. To aid inter-study comparisons, the diagnosis of CTE should be categorized and reported according to an internationally accepted classification.

Suspension Upgrade test ride
I finally finished up the DR650 suspension upgrades and have been trying to fit a test ride into the schedule. I heard "we're gonna get our nails done" and started grabbing equipment.
The upgrades made a huge difference in the feel of the bike. It just felt more "planted" the entire time. It was very noticeable during cornering on the road. Sometimes I would get a "wallowing" feel from the rear and always thought it was the tire going away. No more. I intentionally rode it into potholes on the dirt and it soaked 'em up without bottoming or losing control. The suspension is, of course, much stiffer as heavier springs went in front and rear. The valving thru emulators and the Gold Valve really made a difference.
Can't wait to do some even more challenging terrain. Fun stuff.
Just a short 11 miles from the house to
Thousand Trails
and then up
Otay Mtn
for the usual views.
Where I'm headed....
Looking back at the road up.
Got a little "rattling" warning when I stopped for this photo looking North. Didn't see anything though.
The road ahead.
Turned right at Doghouse Junction and rode a short distance down the road to the border.
The fog had blown in and hadn't burned off yet. Looking East.
Always wanted to make a pit stop at
This Place
so I headed down Otay Lakes Rd and got there 10 minute before the divers came in.

Helpful (1)Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
The interview process was pleasant and informative. Getting an interview was difficult and most people have to apply twice to get recognized of their talents. They give you a sheet of different countries and what cities are in them for you to match up. It was not a requirement to get the position.
Interview Questions
- What book have you read recently. 1 Answer
Helpful (1)Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceAverage Interview
interviewed at Viking River Cruises (Woodland Hills, CA) in January 2014.
The recruiters are reviewing your qualifications even when you don't know it. For example, when they call you for an interview, make sure you sound friendly and professional- they're testing how you sound on the phone. It's actually a kind of phone interview but without the interview questions. If you get called twice, another employee told me that its because they either like you or theyre not sure about your phone voice and need to listen to you again.
My interview started off with 1 manager (I think) then a 2nd interview with 2 supervisors- one right after the other. Each interview takes a few minutes but they make you wait between each interview to see how comfortable you handle the pressure.
Interview Questions
- Tell me how good is your geography skills? 1 Answer
- Accepted OfferEasy Interview
I applied through an employee referral – interviewed at Viking River Cruises.
Interview was fairly easy. You need to know your European geography fairly well, including countries, cities, regions, and what they are famous for. Past direct international (mostly European) exposure is a big plus.
Interview Questions
- After the face-to-face interview I was emailed and asked to describe (in writing, obviously) what sightseeing I would recommend in a particular foreign city (don't want to mention it here), if the tour bus had 4-6 hrs there. Had to factor in all the details affecting time: the distances from the port to the sights, traffic conditions, time for parking and walking, time at the sights, time for bathroom breaks, etc. Proposed a few sights, as possible options, taking into account all of the above and more. Answer Question
When I had asked about what benefits the company offered, I was told that nobody had asked that question before... That sounded extremely odd to me, to say the least. I took the job only because I had to. Salary was "not negotiable."
- No OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 4 days – interviewed at Viking River Cruises (Woodland Hills, CA) in November 2013.
I applied online and received a call from one of their recruiters. I had a brief phone interview with "Karen" on the phone and she scheduled me for an interview. I went to their location in Woodland Hills and met with her for a 20 minute in person role play. From there, I went to "John" for 3.5 minutes of questioning and then to "Irena" for 6 minutes of interview time. One hour after the interview concluded, I received a call from "Karen" regarding an offer. When I spoke to her, she informed me that in his 3.5 minutes of "deep interview techniques", John concluded that I should start out as a Travel Agent Consultant and not with the regular inbound calling. When I inquired why I was considered inadequate to handle regular calls in their call center, I was told because John felt I wasn't experienced enough. In the end Viking offered me the position to handle travel agent calls and told me to think about it over the weekend. I called back the next week, left 2 messages on voice mail and when I finally reached her said the offer was no long valid! This is the most pathetic and unprofessional interview experience to date. How does a company stay in business when they don't even really interview candidates? Then when you don't get down on your knees and kiss their feet when they extend a pathetic position which is not different than anything you would find in a local mall, they get defensive. Don't waste your time with these amateurs!

Helpful (3)Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks – interviewed at Viking River Cruises (Woodland Hills, CA) in December 2012.
It's different for everyone; there is no clear, consistent policy for the interview process. We have all had different experiences. Different number of interviews from 1 to 6.
There is no negotiation. You take it or you leave it and if you don't like anything their policy is, "There's the door."
- No OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at Viking River Cruises (Reseda, CA) in December 2011.
Started with a recruiter's call, then scheduled a phone interview with hiring manager for 30 minutes. After the phone interview, an in-person interview with hiring manager was scheduled the following week. The entire process was very pleasant, the hiring manager was easy to work with and very knowledgeable about the industry and the job responsibilities in particular. Felt very comfortable during the interview with the competency level of the hiring manager and the environment of the company.
Then the waiting game began. A week later, called the recruiter and recruiter was non-commital. Then another week. Communication with recruiter changed from "outlook is good, you're definitely one of the two candidates being considered" to "why don't you send me your resume and a list of companies you're looking at, and I'll do what I can to get you placed." The entire process took about 1.5 months until the recruiter finally gave up and told me that he's gotten zero feedback from the hiring manager and that at this point it is unlikely that they're interested. Never heard back again.
Interview Questions

I applied online. The process took 1 day – interviewed at Viking River Cruises in September 2008.
I had one interview with two managers. The person who was interviewing me made me wait quite some time in the lobby which was a bit uncomfortable. It was an average interview as far as the difficulty of the questions. There was a test given on geography of Europe , which if you've traveled you would have no problem with completing.

Live NationRead MoreMore than half a century ago, three partners raised a vibrant, multicolored tent on an underdeveloped industrial site and established the Westbury Music Fair. It followed its first production, The King and I, with a decade of top-name talent and Broadway musicals. Then, recognizing its place on the theater scene was permanent, it planted its roots as a fully enclosed theater-in-the-round. Expanding its repertoire to match its new digs, the theater showcased performers such as The Who, Bruce Springsteen, and Julie Andrews. Today, past a lounge blazing in purple and red lights, guests find that same circular stage hosting equally great musical acts, musical theater, and competitive musical chairs.833 5th AveDes Moines, IA US

I make peace as best as an infantryman can be expected to do under the circumstances and leave for my favorite bar.
As he prepared to leave Kabul a few weeks ago, he was asked about comparisons to Eisenhower.
Bush finally accepted Scowcroft's position that he must leave Iraq united and reasonably strong to balance Iranian power.
Old English læfan "to let remain; remain; have left; bequeath," from Proto-Germanic *laibijan (cf. Old Frisian leva "to leave," Old Saxon farlebid "left over"), causative of *liban "remain," (cf. Old English belifan, German bleiben, Gothic bileiban "to remain"), from root *laf- "remnant, what remains," from PIE *leip- "to stick, adhere;" also "fat."
The Germanic root has only the sense "remain, continue," which also is in Greek lipares "persevering, importunate." But this usually is regarded as a development from the primary PIE sense of "adhere, be sticky" (cf. Lithuanian lipti, Old Church Slavonic lipet "to adhere," Greek lipos "grease," Sanskrit rip-/lip- "to smear, adhere to." Seemingly contradictory meaning of "depart" (early 13c.) comes from notion of "to leave behind" (as in to leave the earth "to die;" to leave the field "retreat").
"permission," Old English leafe "leave, permission, license," dative and accusative of leaf "permission," from West Germanic *lauba (cf. Old Norse leyfi "permission," Old Saxon orlof, Old Frisian orlof, German Urlaub "leave of absence"), from PIE *leubh- "to care, desire, love, approve" (see love (n.)). Cognate with Old English lief "dear," the original idea being "approval resulting from pleasure." Cf. love, believe. In military sense, it is attested from 1771.
