...It is ironic that I was told, after having taken a standardized aptitude test on language in junior high school, I could never learn another language. Apparently, the test was faulty. It is my conviction that anyone can learn another language if you have a strong desire to study, a willingness to make sounds that may seem odd at first and a lot of patience.

LOUDON, N.H. – Some teams tried stretching their fuel mileage. Others gambled on taking two tires or rolled the dice with four. No matter the strategy, nobody was going to beat Brad Keselowski on Sunday.

Kerry Madsen won the prestigious Kings Royal sprint car race, one of the most coveted prizes on the World of Outlaws STP Series schedule, on Saturday night.

If somebody was going to beat Tony Kanaan in Saturday night's Iowa Corn Indy 300, he was going to have to do something bold in the late going. That somebody turned out to be Michael Andretti.

The rise and rehabilitation of the Lamarckian theory of organic evolution, so that it has become a rival of Darwinism; the prevalence of these views in the United States, Germany, England, and especially in France, where its author is justly regarded as the real founder of organic evolution, has invested his name with a new interest, and led to a desire to learn some of the details of his life and work, and of his theory as he unfolded it in 1800 and subsequent years, and finally expounded it in 1809. The time seems ripe, therefore, for a more extended sketch of Lamarck and his theory, as well as of his work as a philosophical biologist, than has yet appeared.
roadsides shaded by tall poplars.
The peasants to the number of 251 compose the diminishing population. There were 356 in 1880, or about that date. The silence of the single little street, with its one-storied, thatched or tiled cottages, is at infrequent intervals broken by an elderly dame in her sabots, or by a creaking, rickety village cart driven by a farmer-boy in blouse and hob-nailed shoes. The largest inhabited building is the mairie, a modern structure, at one end of which is the village school, where fifteen or twenty urchins enjoy the instructions of the worthy teacher. A stone church, built in 1774, and somewhat larger than the needs of the hamlet at present require, raises its tower over the quiet scene.
Our pilgrimage to Bazentin had for its object the discovery of the birthplace of Lamarck, of which we could obtain no information in Paris. Our guide from Albert took us to the mairie, and it was with no little satisfaction that we learned from the excelle

The best gifts are the ones that feel the most personal. They reflect in some way an element of the recipient's personality. Their likes, quirks, interests. That's why personalized gifts are always so popular. They reflect the person and their life.
One of the best ways to personalize a gift is to use someone's initials. The practice of marking items with initials dates back centuries—all the way to Greek and Roman rulers. And royalty have been using monograms to mark property throughout history. Initials can be used to personalize so many gifts; consider bath robes, hand towels, candles, key chains, throws for the couch or bed. The list is endless.
Create a personalized gift by using a photo of a special place or person. Photos can be added to picture frames, made into coasters, throw pillows and wall art. A picture may tell a thousand words and it can also be made into a thousand gifts.
Bracelets, rings, watches, necklaces…jewelry has long been a favorite for personalization. Whether the piece features initials or has a message inscribed on it, it's a wonderful way to create a unique gift.
When choosing a gift for any occasion, consider personalization. It's the added touch that turns every gift into an extraordinary one.

There are hardly any excesses of the most crazed psychopath that cannot easily be duplicated by a normal kindly family man who just comes in to work every day and has a job to do.
—(Terry Pratchett, Small Gods)
The BRS Gwynith is an air ship of the Byrlothian Resistance. She is sentient, needing no crew to fly or man her, though she generally has a crew aboard for doing repairs and to go where she cannot.
A young man, disowned by his family, traveling the world in an attempt to redeem himself with his musical talent and his prowess with a sword.
The author of many stories, he is blessed by the gods without even knowing it. His stories have more power than most others….
Imagine a tribe of nomads where all the males have the blessing of being were-stallions. The tribe would not need to have ordinary horses to move around, all mounted warriors would be female and a curious custom could be that when a couple gets married, the girl rides her chosen to the altar.

AT&T said it will hire 75 new workers for technicians to help with U-verse installation, sales consultants and customer service representatives for the company's call centers and openings at retail stores across Arkansas.
The company said it has already hired about 250 Arkansans this year. AT&T employs more than 2,200 Arkansans, it said.
"AT&T invested more than $700 million in our Arkansas wireless and wireline networks from 2009 through 2012, and the backbone of that service are our people who work to ensure that Arkansans enjoy a great wireless communications experience," said Ed Drilling, AT&T's Arkansas president.
U-Verse technicians are responsible for the installation and customer care of U-verse integrated digital TV, high speed Internet and voice services.
Customer service representatives, who work in call centers, are responsible for sales and support for customers.
In addition, AT&T in several Arkansas cities is hiring for positions in its retail stores, including sales consultants and store managers.
AT&T did not disclose the level of pay for the various positions it is hiring for, but it did say that paid training and benefits were available for the new positions.

You will have full access to the kitchen and bathroom.

Nice view of the Manhattan skyline... Great sunsets!
Deli and laundromat right at the corner.
Located in a safe neighborhood, just a few blocks away from Queensboro Plaza Station (lines N, Q, 7), where the subway takes you to Manhattan in 5 minutes !
Also close to lines F (21st St Queensbridge) and E,R,M (Queens Plaza).
International travellers welcome!
Guest Access
You have your own set of keys and are free to come and go as you please, at any time of day or night.
The kitchen and bathroom are shared with one other room which is on the other side of the apartment, so there is a lot of privacy.
Interaction with Guests
I have a very busy schedule these days so I won't be at the apartment much, except to check you in and make sure you settle in fine, and if there are any problems. In any case I'm always happy to answer questions about the neighborhood and the City, and I can very easily be reached by phone or email :)
The Neighborhood
The neighborhood has been changing a lot during the past few years... It used to be very industrial/working class homes/artist studios, very gritty (a lot of films/TV shows are shot in the area) with not much to do around but great because so close to Manhattan and other bubbly areas like Astoria and South LIC... Now it is booming! A lot of nice bars/restaurants have opened and it is starting to get more and more gentrified... but right now it still has that gritty old-style New York look...
Getting Around
Very safe neighborhood, just a few blocks away from Queensboro Plaza Station (lines N, Q, 7), where the subway takes you to Manhattan in 5 minutes !
Also close to lines F (21st St Queensbridge) and E,R,M (Queens Plaza).

Thanks, Nathalie, for the nice and convenient stay! We only met Nathalie on the day of arrival and got some very good hints how to explore NYC. Everything about the flat was perfect and as described. It is very easy to get to Manhattan. Supermarkets and Restaurants are also close by. I can only recommend staying there.
We did not meet Nathalie often but still everything was fine. We felt very welcome. She left us towels and food that we could eat as well. The place is well connected to the subway and so you can be in Manhattan within a few minutes. We can only recommend staying at Nathalie's apartment :)
The host canceled this reservation 28 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Nathalie and I didn't get to meet each other but everything went just fine (she left us some food, towells and all the info about keys, wi-fi and such). We had to share the kitchen and the toilet with a French family visiting NY that was really kind and friendly, so not a problem. The place is close to the subway and it's really easy to get to Manhattan. Very recommendable
Nous avons passé un super séjour dans l'appartement de Nathalie, où elle n'habite plus, mais elle était là pour nous dès que nous en avions besoin (mail ou téléphone). Métro à moins de 10 minutes à pied, et on arrive à Manhattan très rapidement ! Des petits delis pour se ravitailler juste à côté, ainsi qu'une laverie quasiment au pied de l'immeuble. Au soleil couchant, la vue sur la skyline depuis le toit est à ne pas rater !! L'appart en lui-même n'est pas très grand mais c'est suffisant, et surtout il est super propre, et fonctionnel. Le lit est très confortable ! Merci pour tout Nathalie ! :)
Thank you Nathalie for your fine welcoming! There is not much I could add to existing comments. Everything is as described, good position close to metro station to Manhattan, but also easy to come from the JFK airport using the airtrain and just one metro connection - metro E. About 15 min walk from a big supermarket - Food Bazaar, with fresh fruits and nice selection. A special thank you to Nathalie for letting me leave my big luggage the last day until after-noon, which allowed me to have an additional care-free day of visiting!
La experiencia ha sido increíble. El apartamento de Nathalie es perfecto si deseas visitar NY ya que a 5 minutos caminando se llega a Queens Plaza, donde se pueden coger las lineas R y E, las cuales te dejan en solo dos paradas en la 5ª a la altura de Central Park o de la 53 respectivamente, por lo que en 10-15 minutos REALES estas en pleno Manhattan. Además, ambas lineas descienden por la isla en paralelo hasta llegar a Brooklyn, por lo que son geniales para visitar todo Manhattan y llegar a Brooklyn. El apartamento esta muy bien: cama cómoda, habitación lo bastante amplia para dos personas (y sus maletas), cocina, bañera, etc... Vimos a Nathalie en unas cuantas ocasiones (ya que estaba trabajando) y todo fueron facilidades tanto a la hora de llegar como el último día: un verdadero encanto!!!
Para nosotros, ha resultado una experiencia 10.
Altamente recomendable.
Nathalie, si en alguna ocasión de paso por Europa, os acercáis por Barcelona, no dudéis en contactar con nosotros.
Un abrazo

For the ninth time, the international wood-based materials branch will meet up in Hanover. From the 8th to the 10th of October, 2014 the Fraunhofer Institute for Wood Research WKI and the European Panel Federation EPF are organizing the 9th European Wood-Based Panel Symposium. They are thereby being supported by the International Association for Technical Issues Related to Wood (iVTH) and Sasol Wax.
In a total of 23 specialist presentations, international speakers will present new results on the subjects of "Raw materials", "Environment and health" and "Markets and new technologies for wood-based materials". The number of presentations has been reduced compared to the previous symposium; this is in order to allow more time for discussions.
Ladislaus Döry, President of the EPF, will begin the symposium with a report on the current situation within the European wood-based materials industry. Fred Kamke, OSU, USA and Shizehiko Suzuki from the Shizuoka University, Japan will talk about their respective domestic markets. Thomas A. Julia, CPA, USA will provide information on EPA and CARB regulations.
Adalbert Westermann from Pfleiderer will demonstrate mega-trends and Alex Berg from the Universidad de Concepcion, Chile will talk about the supply of raw materials to manufacturers of wood-based materials in South America. The needs of the German pre-fabricated building industry will be explained by Georg Lange from BDF.
Further specialist presentations will focus on adhesives, measuring and sorting techniques and the application of nano materials. Emissions from formaldehyde are also a topic: two presentations from the WKI deal with the various international customary chamber methods as well as the formaldehyde reference source which is being established at the WKI and which should ensure quality levels during measurement.
For the first time, the participants can discuss topics with the speakers during the daily panel discussions. Two evening events will enable networking in a relaxed atmosphere. The evening reception on 9.10. is traditionally supported by Sasol Wax; the location for the event will be kept secret until shortly before the event begins.
For the 8th Wood-Based Panel Symposium in 2012, 280 participants from 31 countries took part. 27 presentations provided information on current developments and challenges in the field of wood-based materials.
The program for the symposium can be found on the WKI website at: www.wki.fraunhofer.de

The Dutchess is being crowned "Woman of the Year" by Billboard magazine.
Fergie will be given the honor on Dec. 2 at a ceremony in New York City. The only female member of the Black Eyed Peas says she's "humbled" to accept the award and called it a "great career achievement."
The honor pays tribute to a trailblazing female artist and her accomplishments. Though Fergie's only solo album was 2006's mutli-platinum "The Dutchess," she's continued to sell out venues and score hits with the Black Eyed Peas. They have a new CD, "The Beginning," out Nov. 30.
Previous Billboard "Woman of the Year" honorees were Beyonce, Ciara and Reba McEntire.

Mindfulness study to track effect of meditation on 7,000 teenagers
Robert Booth, The Guardian: Seven thousand teenagers wrestling with the churning emotions of adolescence, exam stress and peer pressure are to take part in an unprecedented trial of the effect of mindfulness meditation on mental health.
Psychologists and neuroscientists from Oxford University and University College London announced on Wednesday they plan to recruit children aged 11 to 16 from 76 secondary schools as part of a seven-year study. They said it would be the largest trial of its kind ever conducted and it would test some of the increasingly ambitious claims about the power of mindfulness meditation to tackle illnesses such as depression and anxiety …

The handful of people I knew were in the bathroom, deep in conversation or outside smoking, and I'd rather fly solo than passive smoke on a beachfront balcony on a blustery winter night in Melbourne.

Imagine learning about the death of your father, but then feeling the surprise and pain freshly each time you hear about it for years afterwards. That was the experience of the world's most famous amnesiac, Henry Molaison, the subject of the book Permanent Present Tense.
These days, we're constantly being encouraged to "live in the present" to reduce anxiety and improve well-being. It's good advice, but pushing away bad memories — or being cut off from them like Henry Molaison — is unproductive. Nobody would enjoy living in the permanent present tense …

Meditation being used at Perth school and businesses to target stress
Claire Moodie, ABC News (AU): Teenagers are used to being told that they have to study hard to get ahead.
But one West Australian girls' school is advocating another, less conventional route to success.
As well as stimulating the mind, Santa Maria College, on the banks of Perth's Swan River, is teaching the importance of stilling the mind.
The school has been incorporating meditation into the timetable over the past 18 months to try to reduce exam stress and safeguard students' mental health.
Senior school head Carol Bell said the regular meditation sessions aimed to give the girls the inner resources to cope with …

Meditation earning a place in health care
David Stroud, Las Vegas Review-Journal: Tina Encheva is sitting in a chair in front of five women, all of them lying on their backs on top of spongy yoga mats. The women's eyes are closed and their hands rest palms down just above their hearts.
The hypnotic sounds of lilting flutes and humming Tibetan singing bowls are playing over a meditation tape, and Encheva's delicate voice floats in and out like wind chimes tousled by a soft breeze.

Mindfulness as effective as pills for treating recurrent depression
The Mindful Way Through Depression: Freeing Yourself from Chronic Unhappiness, with Jon Kabat-Zinn and others Sarah Boseley, The Guardian: Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy may be as good as pills at stopping people relapsing after recovering from major bouts of depression, according to a study.
Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) was developed from mindfulness techniques, which encourage individuals to pay more attention to the present moment, combined with cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), specifically to try to help people who have recurring depression.
It teaches people to recognise that negative thoughts and feelings will return, but that they can disengage from them. Rather …

The study was led by a Harvard-affiliated team of researchers based at Massachusetts General Hospital, and the team's MRI scans documented for the very first time in medical history how meditation produced massive changes inside the brain's gray matter. "Although the practice of meditation is associated with a sense of peacefulness and physical relaxation, practitioners have long claimed that meditation also provides cognitive and psychological benefits that persist throughout the day," says study senior author Sara Lazar …

Former ICE agent won't serve jail time in gun case
BRATTLEBORO A former U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent will serve no jail time for buying and selling firearms at gun shows without a license.
Special Agent Richard Bernholz, who retired in 2012, pleaded guilty last year in federal court in Brattleboro to filing a false tax return and aiding and abetting in the failure to keep adequate records by a federal firearms licensee. In exchange, he provided evidence against a second person involved in the firearms sales.
Bernholzs lawyer said his client paid nearly $11,000 in overdue state and federal taxes connected with income from the sales.
U.S. District Judge J. Garvan Murtha said he thought Bernholz learned his lesson.

Teen killed in gang-related West Valley shooting
WEST VALLEY CITY — An 18-year-old man was gunned down and killed in a shooting that police believe was gang-related.
Anthony Hernandez was walking with a group of four to five others near 3100 South and 4300 West about 10:20 p.m. Saturday when two vehicles pulled up to them.
The two groups said a few words to each other that included "gang references," said West Valley Police Sgt. Jason Hauer. Four to five shots were then fired, striking Hernandez multiple times, he said. Though still under investigation Sunday, Hauer said it appeared one passenger in one of the vehicles fired all of the rounds.
Hernandez was taken to a local hospital and later pronounced dead at 2 a.m. Sunday.
One of the alleged vehicles involved in the incident was a Silver Nissan Armada SUV. Hauer said detectives were able to locate that driver and question him. As of Sunday morning, that driver had not been arrested.
The search continued for two others last seen driving a white four-door vehicle. Hauer said witnesses were being cooperative but much of their information included vague descriptions.
Hauer could not immediately say Sunday what lead up to the shooting or if it was part of an ongoing rival gang situation or dispute specifically involving Hernandez.
Anyone with information on the incident can call police at 801-840-4000.
Additional information will be posted when available.

A tramping hut upgraded a year ago at a cost of $300,000 remains officially closed because it has not passed a building inspection.
Tararua Tramping Club was planning a hut-warming party for Kime Hut today, and had arranged for about 50 guests and a $200 cake to be brought in by helicopter for the celebrations.
But it has had to pull the plug after the Department of Conservation said it would lock the hut and could not encourage use of a non-compliant building.
Although the DOC website advises that Kime Hut is "temporarily closed due to ongoing construction work", it has been used by trampers since at least June last year and is an important refuge on the exposed top of the Tararua range.
It was the destination of Te Papa chief executive Seddon Bennington and his tramping partner, Marcella Jackson, who died a kilometre below it in 2009 in blizzard conditions.
Tramping club president Paul Maxim said he was told by DOC that a locksmith would be flown up to the hut "and the hut would be locked, and that there would be a key nearby in a box that could be broken open in an emergency".
The club's hut convener, Hugh Barr, said: "It's totally crazy. Kime Hut has always been a refuge for people in bad weather."
DOC Manawatu-Wairarapa conservation partnerships manager Chris Lester said the hut's closure did not mean no-one could enter it.
"No-one is saying that if you're caught up there and you're freezing your arse off, you can't get in there and survive."
DOC Masterton conservation services manager Kathy Houkamau confirmed yesterday that she considered locking the hut, but had now made the decision not to.
She denied telling anyone a locksmith would be flown in.
"We've no intention of stopping groups going there, using helicopters and whatever they want to do. What we can't do is promote use of the hut when we don't have code compliance."
The delay in opening the hut was due to windows, flashing and other elements not meeting specifications, meaning they would not withstand the harsh alpine environment.
Kapiti Coast District Council building control manager Claire Stevens said DOC and the council had agreed that, even though "two minor issues" meant the hut could not be signed off, trampers should be allowed access, as it was the only shelter in the area.
Highly Exposed
Kime Hut sits about 300 metres above the bushline on a high ridge in the Tararua Range, notoriously exposed to savage southerly winds, near the 1529m summit of Mt Hector.
It occupies a key point five hours' walk from Otaki Forks on the Kapiti Coast along the renowned Southern Crossing route to Kaitoke in Upper Hutt, about 12 hours' walk further on.
It was originally built in the 1930s as a memorial to a tramper who died of exposure in the area. An early member of the Tararua Tramping Club died in similar circumstances in the 1920s, and the club has long been involved in the hut's maintenance.
The original hut was replaced in 1978. While the new version, started last year, was mostly funded by DOC, the club contributed to its construction and will help with maintenance.

Home > Press > Duquette Named Horton Professor of Materials Engineering at Rensselaer
Corrosion expert David Duquette, of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, has been named John Tod Horton Distinguished Professor in Materials Engineering. The endowed professorship is one of the highest honors bestowed on a Rensselaer faculty member.
"Since joining Rensselaer in 1970, Professor Duquette has been fiercely dedicated to the Institute, its faculty, and students," said Rensselaer Provost Robert Palazzo. "Under David's stewardship, the Department of Materials Science and Engineering has achieved considerable success in nanotechnology, while also maintaining a world-class academic reputation. He is an intellectual leader, a truly exceptional researcher and educator, and without a doubt one of the finest materials engineers of his generation."
A world leader in the field of corrosion, electrochemical phenomena, and processing, Duquette has recently expanded his research interests to work on the challenge of on-chip interconnect technology for semiconductor applications.
After spending four years in the early 1960s in the U.S. Coast Guard as a commissioned officer, Duquette earned his doctorate in metallurgy and materials science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He then worked for two years in research and development at Pratt & Whitney Aircraft before joining Rensselaer in 1970. Duquette was named a full professor in 1976, and served as head of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering from 2000 to 2007.
In his 37 years as a faculty member at Rensselaer, Duquette has published more than 200 academic papers, primarily in the areas of environmental degradation of materials and electrochemical processing of semiconductor interconnects. Duquette has also graduated more than 40 doctoral students and 40 master's students.
Throughout his academic career, Duquette has won numerous awards and recognitions for breakthrough research and advancing the state of materials science. He received the Alcoa Foundation Award for Outstanding Research Achievement from 1978-79, was named a Case Centennial Scholar by Case-Western Reserve University in 1980, was awarded a Senior Scientist Humboldt Prize from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in 1983, and the Whitney Award for outstanding contributions to corrosion science from the National Association of Corrosion Engineers in 1990. He received the Acta Metallurgica Outstanding Paper Award in 1987.
Duquette is a fellow of the American Society for Metals (ASM), the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE), as well as the Electrochemical Society (ECS). In 2000, he received the Distinguished Career Award from the Hudson-Mohawk Section of the Minerals, Metals & Materials Society. In 2002, President George W. Bush appointed Duquette to the United States Nuclear Waste Technology Review Board.
At Rensselaer, Duquette continues to supervise materials science graduate students. He is also deeply involved with the Institute's participation in the National Institute for Nano-Engineering (NINE), a partnership between Sandia National Laboratories and a select group of leading universities and corporations that will present a host of new cutting-edge internship and research experiences for Rensselaer students and faculty. He was named to the Board of Governors of NINE, effective Jan. 1, 2008. Duquette also serves on a National Materials Advisory Board Panel that is in the process of producing a comprehensive report on the status of education in corrosion science and engineering in the United States.

Frank Pignanelli & LaVarr Webb: Utah Legislature faces myriad issues as week 3 begins
It's easy to blast Utah's leaders, but we're all culprits. We all want someone, somehow, to clean up the air. But most of us aren't willing to make personal sacrifices. That's what's required. I enjoyed one writer who aimed nasty barbs at the governor but admitted she didn't take public transit because it was too "inconvenient." We ought to be taking public transit even if it takes a little effort. We'd prefer that someone else make the sacrifice — like workers at oil refineries who would lose wages if we shut them down. This is a tough problem. The easy stuff has been done.
Should the Legislature restore the sales tax on food?
Pignanelli: Sales tax on food is regressive and hurts the working families that do not qualify for food stamps. Corporations and self-employed businessmen/businesswomen (like me) legally and appropriately reduce their tax burdens by deducting the costs of high calorie meals at expensive fancy restaurants. Yet, families that purchase the healthy elements of a balanced meal at a grocery store are rewarded for their efforts — with a tax. I believe the Legislature understands this disparity and will ignore the calls to increase the sales tax on food.
Webb: I support a balanced, stable, low-burden tax system that promotes free enterprise while providing for necessary government services. Therefore, I strongly support restoring the state sales tax on food while lowering the overall state rate to maintain revenue neutrality. Everyone will win, especially low-income people. They get a double tax break by paying lower sales taxes on everything they buy, while also receiving a refund for the food sales tax they pay. They come out way ahead.
We get a broader-based, fairer and more stable overall tax system, helping avoid dramatic fluctuations when economic conditions change — without hurting anyone. What's not to like?

The auction, dubbed "Jony and Marc's (RED) Auction," is set to take place at 7 p.m. on Nov. 23 at Sotheby's New York. The pieces can be seen on exhibition each of the next four days from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m at the auction house's Upper East Side Manhattan location, on York Avenue near 71st street.
The full list of unique Product (RED) items that Ive is credited with having contributed to the design are:
- Mac Pro
- Gold Apple EarPods
- 2013 Range Rover
- Dom Perignon Enotheque 1966 Magnum in Custom Red Cooler
- Achille and Pier Giacomo Gastiglioni "Arco" Lamp
- Hermès "Cavale" Saddle
- Leica Digital Rangefinder Camera
- Neil Fay Studio mosaic-patterned aluminum desk
- U.S. Space Shuttle thermal window on custom stand designed by Ive and Newson

With Cain in crafty KW form with 14 strikeouts and only 1 walk his last three starts, we recommend a 1* play on San Francisco. Thank you and good luck as always.
