Pecherand-Charmet was the 2009 NCAA national runner-up in giant slalom and slalom, finishing 1-2 with Hemmingsson in the slalom ... Sophomore Stefanie Demetz joins Pecherand-Charmet on the injured list. A knee injury training for the UNM meet sidelined her for the rest of the season.

Ledin: Beating cancer just the start of Paige Rosenberg's story
Paige Rosenberg's life wasn't supposed to be like this.
The classroom honors, the scads of extracurricular pursuits, the long hours of volunteer work that might exhaust the Energizer Bunny and test Mother Teresa's endurance, that wasn't supposed to happen.
Neither was the love affair with volleyball, where she grinds and toils and gleefully hits the floor with all the regularity of a dust mop as the libero for the Thousand Oaks High junior varsity team.
None of that was expected, not by a long shot.
"We were told that she was always going to be a special-needs child," says her mother, Melanie. "That was our expectation."
That didn't happen either. Not even close.
The doom-and-gloom predictions that followed the discovery of a dreaded childhood cancer have been refuted by a healthy, active high school junior who attacks life with all the energy of the Tasmanian Devil. The Thousand Oaks resident knows something special has happened.
"It's a miracle," said Paige, now 16 years old. "I do feel that way. Considering what could have happened, I feel blessed. It makes me appreciate what I have, and it makes me want to give back."
Paige, at just 20 months old, was with her family on vacation in Lake Tahoe when the disturbing symptoms struck. First the mild fever, then the uncontrollable bouts of shaking. Thereafter she was unable to walk. Her eyes exhibited a persistent flickering.
Treks to three different hospitals produced what would prove to be three wrong diagnoses. A trip to Children's Hospital of Los Angeles provided the accurate but grim analysis.
A CT scan discovered a tumor in Paige's adrenal gland the size of an orange. Emergency surgery performed by Dr. James Stein removed the tumor, adrenal gland and 16 surrounding lymph nodes.
Fortunately so, it turns out.
The tumor was a neuroblastoma, a much-feared and rare pediatric cancer. The tumor had caused injuries to Rosenberg's brain, which cast doubts for a complete recovery.
Rosenberg demolished the long odds.
Only a month after surgery, she began to walk. By a year and a half later, she was … normal.
Today, the news is all good. Frequent checkups continue to find Rosenberg in good health. She says she remembers having "maybe'' two colds as a student.
"I never get sick. I never miss school," she said. "I wouldn't want to miss any school. I'm having too much fun."
Her parents, Mitch and Melanie, say that quick action by doctors at Children's Hospital occurred just in time.
"If the surgery had happened a while longer, if the doctor didn't remove all the surrounding lymph nodes, it might have been too late," said Melanie. "What they tell us is that she is a one-in-a-million child. Coming back to complete health from something like this doesn't happen very often."
If she wasn't the special-needs child that so many doctors imagined, Rosenberg has grown into a special teenager.
She not only excels in the classroom and battles on the volleyball floor, she stars in, well, life.
Rosenberg has helped organize a Pay It Forward program at Thousand Oaks High, which specializes in acts of kindness, and has continued her older sister's work with Sole Train, which collects pairs of shoes for the needy.
She's a member of the Key Club and the California Scholarship Federation, and does charity work for the American Red Cross and Children's Hospital.
Paige is also a volunteer "floater" at Los Robles Hospital in Thousand Oaks, where she does all manner of tasks.
She recently participates in the Children's Hospital fund-raiser "Light the Way" held at David Murdock's ranch in Thousand Oaks. Her speech was a highlight that didn't leave many dry eyes in the house.
"I was so nervous," she said with a laugh. "But I just told my story, and everyone seemed to enjoy that."
She even got to meet with Dr. Stein, who performed her surgery so many years ago.
She added: "It's just another way to give back. That's the thing the makes me the happiest. I love helping people. I know that's what I want to do with my life."
The other thing that makes her most happy is playing volleyball.
The removal of her adrenal gland cut her growth and means that Paige will never be tall enough to be a middle blocker. But at 5-foot-3, she's a dynamo at libero.
She plays for the REEF club in Agoura Hills, and treasures her time on the court.
"I enjoy it so much," she said. "I love the competition, but I think the best thing is being part of a team."
Rosenberg would love to move up to the varsity team next season, but understands that the odds are long in a program stocked with talent.
Funny, but that probably won't be much of an obstacle for one determined teenager.

Joyce's Voices
Dalkey Archive Press, 1978 - Literary Criticism - 120 pages
When a correspondent from Missouri wrote to Hugh Kenner and asked that he elaborate on his assertion that "Joyce began Ulysses in naturalism and ended it in parody," Kenner answered with this book. Joyce's Voices is both a helpful guide through Joyce's complexities, and a brief treatise on the concept of objectivity: the idea that the world can be perceived as a series of reports to our senses. Objectivity, Kenner claims, was a modern invention, and one that the modernists--Joyce foremost among them--found problematic. Accessible and enjoyable, Joyce's Voices is what so much criticism is not: an aid to better understanding--and enjoying more fully--the work of one of the world's greatest writers.
What people are saying - Write a review
Review: Joyce's VoicesUser Review - Alix Sandomir - Goodreads
Excellent book for anyone studying Joyce or just looking for a bit of help understanding Ulysses. The chapter on the Uncle Charles principle is indispensable. Kenner also has an enjoyable style of writing that doesn't make you want to doze off like some of his more turgid contemporaries. Read full review

Published: 2011

e-book $23.95
David L. Wallace is professor of Rhetoric and Composition and chair of the Department of Writing and Rhetoric at the University of Central Florida. He teaches first-year composition and other undergraduate writing courses as well as graduate courses in rhetorical history and theory, literacy theory, and research methods.
Compelled to Write
Alternative Rhetoric in Theory and Practice
David Wallace rightly eschews both code-switching and "additive models," and instead he re-orients our focus on (indeed, our interest in) alternative rhetorics to how such rhetorics use embodiment and disidentification. I literally yawped when I read his passages on embodiment.
—Jonathan Alexander, author of Literacy, Sexuality, Pedagogy
Wallace's volume has the potential to speak to the heart of transformative intellectuals through its combination of telling examples (both scholarly and personal) and a robust pedagogy.
—Robert E. Brooke, author of Rural Voices
David Wallace argues that any understanding of writing studies must include the conception of discourse as an embodied force with real consequences for real people. Informed in important ways by queer theory, Wallace calls to account users of dominant discourses and at the same time articulates a theory base from which to interpret "alternative rhetoric."
To examine the practice of writing from varied margins of society, Compelled to Write offers careful readings of four exemplar American writers, each of whom felt compelled within their own time and place to write in response to systemic injustices in American society.
Sarah Grimké, a privileged white woman advocating for abolition, is forced to defend her right to speak as a woman; Frederick Douglass begins his public career almost as a curiosity (the articulate ex-slave) and ends it as one of the most important rhetors in American history; Gloria Anzaldúa writes not only in multiple languages and dialects but from marginalized positions related to gender, race, class, sexual identity, and physical abled-ness; David Sedaris uses his privileged position as a middle-class white male humorist to speak unabashedly of his sexuality, his addictions, and obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
Through these writers, Wallace explores a range of strategies that comprise alternative rhetorical practice, and demonstrates how such practice is inflected by social constraints on rhetorical agency and by how writers employ alternative discourses to resist those constraints. Grounding and personalizing Compelled to Write with rich material from his own teaching and his own experience, Wallace considers a number of implications for teachers of writing.

RICHLAND, Wash. (AP) - Federal officials are looking to ship some 3 million gallons of radioactive waste from Washington state to New Mexico.
The Department of Energy announced its preferred plan Wednesday, saying it will provide the department an option to deal with leaking tanks at Hanford Nuclear Reservation. The waste would ultimately be disposed at a massive repository near Carlsbad.
The transfer would only account for a fraction of the roughly 50 million gallons of waste currently at Hanford but would impact some 20 tanks. Federal officials have identified six leaking tanks. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee says the proposal is a good start in the process of getting rid of Hanford's waste.

Almost impossible not to like, Jeunet's magical realist tale follows a shy young woman (Audrey Tatou) who blossoms through her good deeds. A brisk series of scenes, narrated by André Dussollier, provide all the exposition needed to explain Amélie's sheltered childhood: raised at home, the girl had few friends and consequently created a vibrant inner life. Now grown, she resides in the artsy Montmartre section of Paris and waitresses in a local café.
One day, by chance, Amélie discovers an old box filled with childhood trinkets hidden in her apartment and resolves to track down its owner, a man who had tucked it away decades before. Encouraged by her success, she becomes a neighborhood Good Samaritan. Bit by bit, through her almost imperceptible gestures, she begins to heal the wounded lives of those around her. Amélie plays matchmaker to the café's crusty cashier (Isabelle Nanty) and curmudgeonly customer (Domenique Pinon), and she helps a gentle grocery boy (Jamel Debbouze) forge a truce with his misanthropic boss (Urbain Cancellier). But as for her own life, Amélie is reluctant to take risks, until she finds a match in an equally quirky young man (Mathieu Kassovitz) whose hobby is collecting discarded pictures from photo booths.
What sets "Amélie" apart from other magical realist fables is that Jeunet has created such an inviting and fully realized world, part dreamscape and part reality. In the hands of cinematographer Bruno Delbonnel and production designer Aline Bonetto, Jeunet's Paris teems with life. Enhanced with digital color and judiciously placed visual effects, it's a Paris of the imagination peopled with unique and unforgettable characters. Not the least of these is Amélie herself, who is embodied by the radiant Tatou in a star-making performance. Starring Audrey Tatou, Mathieu Kassovitz and Serge Merlin. Directed by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Written by Guillaume Laurant and Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Produced by Claudie Ossard. A Miramax release. Comedy. French-language; subtitled. Not yet rated. Running time: 121 min

Saying that Free Video Slots is the world's most played casino game is not a bold statement, nor is it a clever marketing punch line, free video slots really are the world's most played casino game, and I don't just mean the normal land based casinos only, but their internet based cousins as well. People the world over love playing free video slots, they love the simplicity and the fact that it takes little or no knowledge to play them and that they have made more instant online millionaires than all the other casino games combined. Playing Video Slots Online is a great way to spend and morning, noon, evening or night and will provide you with more excitement and more enjoyment than any other casino game in the world, it also doesn't hurt that free video slots are best played at home.
European Casinos are well known for being brilliant. They offer you a wide variety of different casino games to play as well as the bonuses that will allow you to play for free.
South African Online Casinos offer you the chance to play casino games from the comfort of your very own home. There are many different forms of Online Slots to play including the likes of classic slots, video slots and the millionaire making progressive slots.
Why are free video slots the best casino game to play at home.
It is not difficult to explain the reasoning behind that particular statement and it especially easy to show you what I mean when I say that the best casino game to play at home is and always will be free video slots. Allow me to take you through the last process you no doubt had to undertake before you were able to enjoy a few games of free video slots at a land based casino. Firstly I would assume you would have to sit in traffic while you completed your daily commute from the job you have which allows you to play free video slots games, you would then have to get home and shower and change into appropriately smart clothes before having to make the long, arduous trip to the closest casino, which unless you live in a place like Las Vegas or Atlantic City would mean travelling distances in excess of a hundred miles instead of playing Video Slots Online.
Play free video slots, they are the best home games continued…
After you have travelled the required distance, you would then need to find parking which I'm sure was either an underground or above ground parking lot situated more or less five miles from the casino floor, I bet when you had the inclination to play a few games of free video slots earlier that night you didn't expect a five mile hike to be a part of it. Following your pre free video slots game hike you would need to fight your way through a crowded casino floor to a crowded cashier and stand in line to change money, this seems a bit excessive, just for a few games of free video slots. Once you have completed your wait in line you would need to once again wade through the bust casino crowd to find a vacant free video slots machine, then and only then after a good few hours travelling, hiking, queuing and then searching would you be able to play free video slots, now I shall explain why playing video slots online is the better alternative.
The conclusion, Free Video Slots are best played at home.
We now know why free video slots are not ideally suited for land based casino and we can turn our attention to why free video slots are considered as the best casino game to play online or at home. Firstly after a long, hard day's graft you would not need to travel any further because the free video slots are more than capable of travelling to you. Secondly, there would be no need to get showered or dress in smart clothes to play video slots online because the computer doesn't care what you look like and the Online Casino you will be playing the free video slots at will never refuse you entrance based on how well you are dressed. Finally, if you want to play free video slots you can sit in a comfortable chair as opposed to the uncomfortable plank of wood normally provided to you by the Casino, this will allow you to enjoy playing Video Slots Online much more. As you can see there really is no reason why you would ever feel the need to play free video slots at a land based casino.

Faculty/Student Collaboration
Professor and graduate student read at the Poetry Foundation
Eastern Illinois University English professor Ruben Quesada and English graduate assistant Tana Young were selected to read original poems at the Poetry Foundation's, "The Open Door Reading Series," in Chicago, April 15, 2014. The Open Door series presents work from Chicago's new and emerging poets and highlights outstanding writing programs on a monthly basis. Each hour-long reading features two Chicagoland college and graduate writing program instructors and two of their current or recent students.
"The opportunity to read for 'The Open Door Reading Series' came from a call for submissions put out by Poetry Foundation Program Director Stephen Young," Dr. Quesada said. "The call was for teachers in the Chicago area to feature creative writing programs and their students."
Dr. Quesada teaches English and Creative Writing at EIU. He is the author of Next Extinct Mammal and translator of Luis Cernuda: Exiled from the Throne of Night. He also is the founder and publisher of Codex Journal, and poetry editor at The Cossack Review. A founder of Stories & Queer, a non-profit, traveling reading series whose mission is to create safe storytelling spaces for poets and writers of color in underrepresented areas of the county, he now serves as its creative consultant. A Pushcart Prize nominee in poetry, his writing has appeared in The American Poetry Review, The California Journal of Poetics, Guernica, Cimarron Review, and elsewhere. He has been a fellow and resident at CantoMundo, Napa Valley Writers' Conference, Vermont Studio Center, Squaw Valley Community of Writers, Santa Fe Art Institute, Lambda Literary Foundation Writer's Retreat, and Idyllwild Arts Program.
His research interests include poetry and poetics, digital storytelling (composition), and queer studies.
Tana is a non-traditional graduate student in the EIU English department, with an area of study in Literary Studies, Creative Writing Thesis. She holds an MFA in Creative Writing, Poetry emphasis, Creative nonfiction minor, from the Inland Northwest Center for Writers at Eastern Washington University, where she also received a GSA Poetry Fellowship. Tana holds a BA in English: Writing and Literature, with an Art History minor, from Whitworth University; and she holds an AAS in Advertising Art from Spokane Falls Community College.
She has taught English composition, researched argument, technical writing, literature, creative nonfiction and introduction to creative writing at the university and college level.
"I selected Tana because she has been my student for two semesters and I was familiar with her writing and acuity with language. I was impressed by Tana's ability to convey her thoughts clearly and carefully in writing and during class discussion," Dr. Quesada said.
Currently, Tana is a tutor in the EIU Writing Center, working one-on-one with a range of graduate, undergraduate, international and nontraditional students, helping them with their writing. This semester, she is also teaching in an Honors English classroom with Dr. Dagni Bredesen in a mentored teaching capacity. She attends EIU as a full-time student.
"Tana is currently a student in my graduate poetry workshop where her writing has matured and opened up to reveal personal and compelling narratives about her world views," Dr. Quesada said. "Tana is incredibly talented; she is sensitive to the nature and power of storytelling in poetry."
"I'm so honored to have been chosen to read at the Poetry Foundation," Tana said. "It's a huge honor, and I'm grateful for the support of EIU English Department."

Jones County will remain in Region 2-AAAAA for the next two years, though the makeup of the region has changed a bit.
Two Augusta area schools – Cross Creek and Richmond Academy – have been added to what was an eight-team region the last two years to make it a 10-team region for the 2014-15 and 2015-16 school years.
The GHSA has reclassification and region realignment every two years, based on changes in the school population numbers.
The realignment for the Class AAAAA schools was not without some controversy, however, and some of that involved Region 2-AAAAA.
The two new schools to the region are actually Class AAAA schools according to the number of students they have, but they requested to play up a class so they could be grouped with the other Augusta area schools already in the region – Evans, Lakeside-Evans, Greenbrier and Grovetown. They were hoping to have an Augusta area only region, and at least one GHSA official reportedly told representatives from Richmond Academy and Cross Creek that would be the case.

Nick sign 1 year 3 million so we can get Parise Suter and someone else sign our RFAs and win the cup, retire on top and end it right.I dont want him back for 6 million we can use that money for younger talent. Even though he is the best or near best in the game it is better for DRW if he takes the pay-cut or leaves, signing Suter long term helps us more than giving Lidstrom another 6 mil then leaving next summer. We wont win the cup with just him anyway it will be a waste...
man im so glad datsyuk tied that game against chicago. we needed that break on the travel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Create letter-writing teams for St. Jude
January 17, 2012
Want to make a difference in the life of a child at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital? It's as easy as sending letters! The Up 'til Dawn student organization at MSU is looking for students, faculty and staff to get together and create letter-writing teams to help beat childhood cancer.
How do you do this? Simply gather up to 10 friends to create a team, and each team member will bring a list of addresses to the letter-writing event on Feb. 8 to write letters to friends and family asking for donations. There will be prizes for teams who write the most letters and raise the most money through their letters. Contact Meredith McKee, recruitment chair, at firstname.lastname@example.com or stop by the third floor of South Hall to obtain a team registration form. Forms are due by Feb. 3.

Center City in April (help, please!)
This board has been very helpful in the past, so I thought I would turn to it again before our next trip up to Philly. I have read many similar posts to what I'm about to ask, but I would really appreciate advice pertaining to our particular situation.
My husband and I (I am 29, he is 34) are coming up for 4 nights in the beginning of April and staying at the Hotel Monaco. We are staying at the Borgata on a Wednesday night and then driving to the Monaco on Thursday morning and checking out on Sunday.
On our previous trips we have enjoyed: lunch at Reading Terminal Market (although a little overwhelming!), afternoon drinks at Parc, dinner at Buddakan, dinner at Branzino, evening drinks at the bar at the Sofitel and dessert at Capogiro. These were all great experiences (except for the fact that my husband ordered a side of pasta with meat sauce at Branzino and was a little surprised when it showed up as $18 on the bill, but we use it as a lesson to ask about the cost of items not mentioned on the menu :)
We have been to the Italian market and Pats/Genos, were told to go to South Street and sat on the patio and had drinks at Bridget Foy's, stopped at Continental and Davio's after dinner one night, and also had dinner at Friday Saturday Sunday. While these experiences were fine, we don't feel the need to repeat any of them.
On our agenda for this trip: lunch at Monk's (his choice), dinner at Buddakan (his choice) a southern Italian dinner (his choice), wine/snacks/lunch? at Tria (my choice).
I was thinking Caffe Casta Diva for our Italian meal? The third dinner will be my choice and I really like the menu at Melograno but would prefer somewhere that takes reservations. I generally like contemporary American, northern Italian and Mediterranean flavors. It gets a little complicated because I don't eat poultry or red meat and I have food allergies (nuts & capers), so restaurants with limited menus (like James, for instance) can be a little tricky. My husband isn't exactly an adventurous eater but over the years I've gotten him to appreciate quality over quantity :)
We don't mind taking cabs although we generally prefer to walk. BYOB is fine but not a must-have. We usually end up spending around $100 for dinner (more if not BYOB), and last time Buddakan was around $200 including tip, so we would prefer our other dinners to be a little less costly.
I know this is a LOT of information to process (and thanks for reading this far!), but I would really appreciate any guidance/suggestions/recommendations you can give. In exchange, I promise to give a full report after our trip! :)
For my money Modo Mio is the best Italian in the city. (And the sandwiches at sister shop Paesano's across the street are amazing as well.) Both are very close to the el or a short cab ride from Center City. For Mediterranean flavors & a very satisfying meal without poultry or red meat, try Zahav. Kanella would probably work for you as well. And if you're wandering around Center City & looking for a place for a snack or to explore, Garces Trading Co. offers something for everyone.
re: Seeker19104
Yes! I was on the Kimpton website before writing this post and was reading about the Monaco in Baltimore. Thanks for catching my mistake!
Like the other poster said, Zahav would be great, but my favorite is Kanella (especially for breakfast). Tria is a good choice I prefer the one in Washington Square rather than the one by your hotel. The restaurant in your hotel does have a great whiskey cocktail.
If you husband is interested in Monks, you may like Eulogy too.
If you don't mind a cab ride or long walk, I would suggest you check out the East Passyunk neighborhood - this is a traditionally Italian neighborhood that has recently gotten an influx of younger people but without loosing the older neighborhood vibe. La Virtue and Paradiso are 2 newer Italians, Marra's is OLD school Italian (go for pizza), then there are a slew of Taquerias and pubs and other places I am just forgetting....

The Ferris State University campus is getting a facelift that will result in a modern, future-oriented University Center to better meet the needs of students, faculty, staff and the community.
Work has begun on the $33.9 million project to renovate the Rankin Student Center, a building constructed in 1957. Its current configuration includes 1960 and 1987 additions that no longer meet the university's focus on community.
The new University Center, slated for completion by December 2014, will be a gathering place for the campus community and a home for its commuter students.

It seems a tad ironical that the Catalans would want to secede from Spain and become a smaller entity when throughout Europe, countries are wanting to become part of a larger group or entity, the European Union. Mind you, who said that the majority of the Catalan people in fact want the change??

Why it is vital more homes are built in Cambridgeshire, by Stephen Mitcham, chief executive of The Cambridge Building Society
Posted: July 17, 2014|
The recent announcement that average UK house prices have surpassed their 2007 peak made me think about my own journey on the property ladder - and reflect on the challenges faced by today's home buyers.
As I reach the end of my 25th year with The Cambridge Building Society I think back to my early days of working for The Cambridge, when I set out house-hunting, knowing we were moving into the area to start a family. Being realistic I knew central Cambridge was beyond our means but I didn't expect to find our price range meant a near 20-mile commute into work from the outer depths of Needingworth. Three houses later I am still in Needingworth - so maybe the commute is not that bad.
With house prices in Cambridge seeing the highest rise in the country after London it stands to reason that, for the majority of people, moving into the area is just never going to be affordable. As a result I see people undertaking longer commutes into Cambridge with work colleagues travelling from Downham Market, Milton Keynes and even Nottingham.
Simply, there just aren't enough houses in the greater Cambridge area to meet demand as more and more people discover our city is a great place to live, bring up families and work.
So what can be done to help manage the demand for housing outstripping supply? We all know that there is no silver bullet solution or else people much cleverer than me would have provided this decades ago.
The hard truth we have to accept is that demand is not going to subside so supply has to increase. This means building more houses and not just in Cambridge but also in the surrounding towns. Of course simply building more homes for purchase or rent will not be enough. Public transport, such as park and ride schemes, will have to be integrated with any new developments to provide affordable and convenient travel options.
This all sounds very easy – build more homes, integrate transport systems and ensure a good mix of housing tenure options – but it is not a simple process. Where do we build these homes? Who pays for the supporting transport infrastructure? And of course we must not forget that it will take many years to significantly increase the supply of houses.
I look around the area and see many glimmers of hope that much of what I suggest is already happening. Just look at the University of Cambridge's innovative plans for 3,000 homes in North West Cambridge. Whether you love it or hate it the guided busway will be a key transport link into Northstowe as this new development provides over 9,000 homes.
Looking further afield many of the towns around Cambridge have building sites springing into life as the housing market recovers. Clearly these developments will not be enough to solve Cambridge's housing challenges and more innovation and brave leadership will be needed from both local and national politicians.
I now have two sons in their early 20s starting to think about setting up home for themselves. It is a daunting challenge as they strive to manage a mixture of student loans, starting work at the lower end of the wage scale and managing travel costs. I thought I had a challenge setting up home but I now believe it is even harder for the current generation as they move into the local housing market.
At The Cambridge we see first hand what's involved as we support our members throughout the journey to try and take some of the stress out of the house-buying process.
Despite all my concerns I do keep reminding myself that the reason we have this problem of a housing shortage is because we are fortunate to live or work in such a thriving city - and this is something to be proud of.
Prices soaring – but have buyers had enough? By Chris Elliott
House prices climbed by nearly 12 per cent across the UK last month, according to the Nationwide – surpassing their 2007 peak levels.
In Cambridge – the increase was nearly twice as much, up 20 per cent, bringing the average price of a home in the city to £419,187. This is even higher than the typical price of a property in London, which stood at £400,404.
However, in a recent survey, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors found London, East Anglia and the East Midlands were the only parts of the country where there were falls in new buyer enquiries last month.
A combination of tougher mortgage lending rules and the threat of rising interest rates is said to be slowing the market. In April, new rules introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority made the process of getting a mortgage much more difficult, with tougher affordability checks on how homebuyers spend their money, along with the requirement for mortgage sales to be advised.

text: To be specific, slice 5 (the first extended slice) is correctly numbered and the ID-type a9 is also correct. The next slice is correctly identified at ext2 but is mis-numbered as 7 instead of 6. The last two slices (a5/DFly) don't show up at all even though they can be mounted and used and have correct DFly disklabels. Just how the sixth slice gets mis-numbered is what I'm trying to figure out now, but any other more skillful eyes than mine might be able to spot the bug a lot sooner. Any ideas? Thanks.

PROVIDENCE, RI. -- The University of New Hampshire women's gymnastics team improved its regular-season record to 15-3-1 with a pair of wins over Brown and Bridgeport at Brown University. UNH posted a high score of 193.925, followed by Brown (188.55) and then Bridgeport (185.2). UNH will travel to the EAGL championships next weekend (March 24) at the University of North Carolina and then the team will most likely be invited to compete in the NCAA Eastern Regionals on April 7 at the University of Michigan, according to head Coach Gail Goodspeed.
In the vault, UNH was led by Senior Wendy Wheaton (Rockville, Md.) who placed first with a score or 9.675.
On bars, UNH had the top five finishers, led in first place by Wheaton with a 9.875 and by freshman Tara Phillips (Houston, Texas) with a 9.825. On the balance beam, UNH hit four of its five sets with sophomore Michelle Harley (Collegeville, Pa.) checking in with the top score of 9.85 for first place overall.
The Wildcats struggled overall in the floor, which is usually the top event for UNH. However, that did not stop Harley, who returned from injury in that event to earn second with a 9.8. Recording a personal best for first place overall was junior Katie Revis (Putnam Valley, N.Y.), who recorded a judgement of 9.9 in the floor.
In the all-around competition, Goodspeed was happy to have Harley back, as she led the meet with a 38.95 for first place.
UNH returns to action on March 24 when the squad travels to the University of North Carolina to compete at the EAGL conference championship meet.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Tejas and the Gulf States' started by Elvis70, Mar 27, 2009.
You tried starting the XR lately?
Sweet! I wish my son was ready for a 65! We sat on one yesterday and its too big, maybe within the next year or two. I figured a 65 with a Rekluse clutch would be an awesome kid bike! Let me know if you get it, we can meet up out at our track and ride, it's nice and open out there.
I use this cheapo handlebar mount GPS case to hold my phone/gps. It works but it has its flaws. I'm thinking that a new tank bag is in my future.
We always had big Owls on our farm, used to sleep windows open cause no air and I would listen to them hoot. Many a cat vanished from that farm, I figure the Owls got a few.
1) How hard it is to get an owl to take up residency?
2) Do owls have a taste for geese?
Less than $25k?
I was an advocate of doing a hunt and eat or hunt and donate. I'm not inclined to hunt them but I have no problems controlling a population this way.
I was in Monroe Michigan one year during the tame Canada goose hunt. There were blinds near every body of water in the city. I saw dead geese dropping onto the Interstate!
The local gubmint said it did the citizens more good than anything else but they weren't about to stop it.
Geese are pretty but they shit like St. Bernards on a mexican diet.
Calling Elvis to the Blue Courtesy phone....
Can you PM me please I've got a car sales question for you.
Has he fixed the flats?
Wait a second! Forget my earlier post about how cool the 65's are! I have a near mint KTM 50SX that Cassie needs! It runs great, only ridden to the mailbox and back by a little old lady!
PM, and first peace of advise is don't buy an orange car.
Speaking of cars. At the last breakfast I said I was going to buy a Prius. I drove this nice used one. I ended up driving some other cars and then decided to buy it, it was leaving as we headed back to the used store. Been on the lot 90 days and sold out from under me. No biggee they had another one loaded but not as clean, but the doctor and old lady just dinged it a bit, but they bought it new, serviced, and traded it back in at the auto park. We were $500 apart on the car and I walked. I ended up deciding not to buy one. I am going to just drive the Outback till at least 150k like the last 2 I owned.
Try as I might I have not bought a car from a dealer, other than 2 from my brother when he still was in the business, since I was in the car business at the age of 25. Once you been on that side of the fence you just can't pay what they want. I always end up with private party cars at way cheaper prices. I may buy brand new next time though. I did find a Honda Fit that Justin had at Subaru and the money was right on it. I couldn't trade my in though, you never win with a dealer if you trade one in. Never. I decided the fit was too noisy for my long commute. Wind noise mostly and seats not plush enough. If I didn't commute a million miles I loved the car. Very versatile use of space and good mileage combined with fun to drive.
I agree it's tough to buy a new car Elvis, but there are some screaming deals out there right now! I've been browsing Chevy 1/2 ton Silverados and they are $10k to $12 off sticker, thats a smokin deal! If I werent worried that 1/2 ton wouldnt pull my tractor and camper I'd be all over one for the smoother ride and better fuel mileage than my truck.
Good on you for walking away from the deal you werent happy with, I've learned to step back and think about it as I'll usually change my mind!
yep..till I was blue in the face!
You should wait for the half ton diesels to arrive Ted. Ford and Chevy should have them out in the next year or two, I bet they will tow your stuff and you could actually get double digit mileage. Those heavy duty trucks do ride like covered wagons when unloaded don't they.
Orange is ok if you don't buy it from Germany. German yellow rocks!!!
i got my maps back! all l had to do was buy a new dvd unit! :huh
See! Money can buy happiness.
$100 here, $100 there, no biggee! Right?
Kinda cuts into his Tubliss fund though...

Rosa Parks Elementary on the east side of Sioux Falls has been home to the school district's Spanish immersion program. The school board has decided the program eventually will be moved from Rosa Parks to a new school to be built in northwestern Sioux Falls
Now that the Spanish immersion program is getting its own elementary school, parents are turning their attention to where it will be built and how theyll get there.
Immersion parents lobbied hard for their own school, convinced the program cant achieve its full potential when their children in Spanish-only instruction mix with students in traditional classes taught by English speakers. They insisted theyll stay loyal to the program, no matter where the school is located.
In the end, school district administrators recommended building a new school in the northwest corner of Sioux Falls, a mile west of Southeast Technical Institute. Thats more than a 20-minute drive from its original home at Rosa Parks Elementary, on 26th Street at the eastern edge of housing development in the city.
The school board voted 5-0 on Monday in favor of the plan. The immersion school will be connected to a traditional elementary school, sharing a gym and common space to save money.
An option they considered would have put the school closer to downtown, at Ninth Street and Grange Avenue, where Lincoln Elementary was demolished in 2004. But that wouldnt have achieved the savings that building twin schools will.
Jeff Schmitt, chief planning and zoning official for the city of Sioux Falls, said that for a school getting its students from all parts of the city, it makes sense to build on the edge of the city.
Shannon Graber, whose son is in the inaugural class at Rosa Parks, told the school board Monday that parents are thrilled to bring the program under one roof after it grew this fall to a second school, Robert Frost Elementary. But concerns about transportation remain.
The new proposal does bring a potential challenge for many families that live far from the proposed site. While it is important to us that this program be accessible to all of Sioux Falls it appears that getting students to and from the proposed location is a potential drawback and a real concern to many current and future Spanish immersion families, she said.
The school district on Tuesday could not provide figures on how many Rosa Parks students live in that neighborhood. But the school is among the more popular for open enrollment, and advocates know many students are driven to school each day from other parts of the city.
Jada Pyper, who lives near the zoo, drives her first-grade son to and from Rosa Parks each school day.
Pyper will have a shorter drive to the new school when it opens in 2016 and hes in fifth grade. For her, the value of raising her child as bilingual is worth the drive.
I think its amazing. I have a 6-year-old child who in some ways is smarter than me, who can speak Spanish pretty fluently, Pyper said.
Of Spanish immersion parents generally, she said, I think theyll be willing to drive anywhere.
Carly Reiter, head of an immersion parent group, lives near Rosa Parks but doesnt mind the change in location. With the move four years away, she said, parents will have time to figure out transportation. She said one parent started a fee-based taxi service for Rosa Parks, while others carpool.
Meanwhile, a school district committee, which includes Spanish immersion parents, has been considering some sort of optional, fee-based transportation organized by the district. A handful of South Dakota school districts, most notably Brandon Valley, already charge certain students for bus service.
District spokeswoman DeeAnn Konrad said the school board will receive a report on the pay-for-transportation concept in a few months.

Lady Gaga bought a top-tier ticket and attended an exclusive Silicon Valley fundraiser at the home of Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg on Sunday night. Wearing a black, sleeveless lace gown and with her hair piled up, Lady Gaga was 2 feet taller than everyone including Obama, thanks to her super high heels and substantial up-do. Her outfit included a black veil. In recent days Gaga has been saddened and angered by the suicide of 14 year old fan Jamey Rodemeyer, and her choice of attire suggests mourning.
Last week Lady Gaga said she would be meeting with POTUS to discuss her concerns about bullying–at one point Gaga tweeted that bullying
must become illegal
USA Today reports from pool reporter Carol Lee of The Wall Street Journal: [cont'd.]
POTUS spoke for about 8 minutes, with Lady Gaga sitting front and center. And although he never acknowledged her obvious presence, it seems likely the two crossed paths during greetings inside the house before the dinner.
ABC reports a slightly different scenario from an anonymous source inside the tent. According to their source, Gaga thanked the President for what he has accomplished, then read what she said was a letter from a fan discussing another of her fans who committed suicide over bullying. After which she
thanked Obama for hosting his anti-bullying conference with Michelle Obama, and then made a general plea to everyone in the room, including the president, to do what they can to prevent bullying.
Gaga was spurred to tweet on bullying after Jamey Rodemeyer killed himself over incessant bullying. His final tweet was
@ladygaga bye mother monster, thank you for all you have done, paws up forever
and he was buried in a "Born This Way" shirt. Jeremy had made an It Gets Better video in May, but the bullying at Williamsville North High School in Buffalo, N.Y., and online was ceaseless. New York already has an anti-bullying law, the Dignity for All Students Act, passed in 2010.
The Gay Straight Alliance issued a statement with regards to Gaga's call for the criminalizing of bullying:
It's great that Lady Gaga is bringing national attention to this problem, but now we must focus on real solutions. By writing letters, starting and supporting Gay-Straight Alliances, talking to teachers and administrators and mobilizing our communities, we can push schools to enforce existing non-discrimination policies in a way that doesn't contribute to an environment of fear and punishment, but rather fosters a culture of safety, inclusion, and respect for all students.
Ticket cost for the Obama fundraiser was the standard $35,800 per couple/single seat. Gaga apparently came alone.

@haveanyofyouraced? Where do you get your facts from? There is a certain DNA to that Ducati that comes from the engine config and placement, it has inherent characteristics that cannot be changed, therefore you just have to get on it and ride it how it needs to be ridden. Rossi couldn't , Melandri couldn't, Capirex won a few races but they all tried to turn it into a high corner speed machine. Ditto the opposite with Ben Spies at Yamaha , the M1 needs a soft setup so it suits Jorge and Rossi and not doubt Stoner would win on it too .
