Summer's final art & music festival-A A +A
By Mark Vargas
Friday, May 30, 2014
SUMMER 2014 in The City of Smiles under Bacolod Mayor Monico Puentevella is indeed a summer to remember.
So many activities were lined up under the management of Councilor Kalaw Puentevella and Rocky Puentevella and it made our beloved city more colorful and fun.
Summer is about to close but before we bid adieu to this season, there's one big party to rock Bacolod tomorrow, May 31, at the Bacolod Baywak, starting 3 p.m.
It's called "RESET6100: Urban Art Exhibition and Music Festival," the first of its kind in Bacolod City that will showcase the skills and abilities of local artists and various talents set in a musical backdrop by international guests and local DJs.
"Being held at one of Bacolod's best settings (Baywalk), our aim is to show the truly vibrant, passionate, and energetic culture of the City of Smiles though this festival," the organizers said.
Activities include an art exhibit from various local artists, and live street competitions (skateboarding, longboarding, BMX), fire dancing, fixie bicycle exhibition, drum circle, Electric Maskarrave dancers with full costumes, graffiti murals, RC planes, kite-flying, photo booth, tattoo exhibition, local arts and crafts, marching bands and more.
The highlight of this event is the music party which will be headlined by international guest DJs from Guam, Manila, Australia, San Francisco and London joined by our local DJs performing on a beautiful stage setup that represents Bacolod's world renowned MassKara Festival built around a massive set up of lights, state of the art sound, and the stunning sunset view at the Baywalk.
The DJ lineup includes VEGA (San Francisco), PharmDJ (Guam), Sal Saqeb (London), Emel Rowe (Sydney), Martin Pulgar (Republiq Club, Manila), Elmer Dado (Team Switch Philippines / Grupo Tribale), Jack Stone (Labeled Cebu / Groove Philippines), Clyde Harris (Oil Lounge / 6AM Group Asia), Jao Varela (Dugout, Bacolod City), Ben Thomson (Dugout, Bacolod City), Eric Gella (Flow, Iloilo City), Anton Gacuma (Oil Lounge / Mushu Bacolod), and Leandro Zayco (Bacolod City / Patiqueros).
One of the major presenters is the BLU Energy Drink. Their pretty marketing manager, Jodge Ledesma, is in the city and she told me that BLU is just new in the country and they are starting to introduce the brand in the market.
BLU tastes so good—it is refreshing and adds more energy.
Miss Jodge is accompanied by the very good-looking owner of Blu Energy Drink who is from Israel. He informed me that Blu comes from Poland and they are bringing Fabio Ide, their official model endorser, this Saturday at Munsterific at 5 p.m. and also at RESET.
For RESET, the general admission is P100. The ticket for the gate is P350, which includes general admission access.
Let's celebrate the end of summer by joining RESET and spread the good vibes as we party.

After weeks of freezing temperatures in Bordeaux, it was a pleasure to enjoy more Southern temperatures: the difference between -6 and 12 degrees celcius is appreciable, and underlines the climatic differences between the two regions. Before the tasting we toured the vineyard: I have a special affection for Mas Belles Eaux. These photographs may give you some idea why.
We acquired the two vineyards of Sainte Hélène and Belles Eaux in 2002, and merged them together to form the property of Mas Belles Eaux. Since then transformative work has taken place in the vineyard, notably in the trellising, replanting, or regrafting of large parts of the property. However, some parcels needed no changing at all, and this magnificent plantation of old vine Carignan is an example.
These wonderful old vines, planted in the 1940s, planted in the heart of the noble terroirs of the property naturally produce a very low yield of superb wine, full of depth and character, which we use in the blend for the Sainte Hélène Grand Vin, but also bottle in small quantities as a Single Varietal Carignan under the Mas Belles Eaux label. I opened a bottle of the 07 at home on Sunday and was struck by how fresh and balanced it was, but also by its finesse, not a characteristic I would automatically have associated with the variety before I got to know it a little better.
Mourvèdre is another variety that I have enjoyed becoming more familiar at Mas Belles Eaux. Fortunately there were already several hectares planted, but the results have been so encouraging that we decided to graft some old vine Cinsault with Mourvèdre to increase the proportion of this noble variety in the vineyard.
Here you see a parcel of Grenache Noir on the right, just before pruning, and on the left a parcel of Mourvèdre that has been grafted onto Cinsault, reasonably old vines, in this case planted in 1973. In the distance you can see the Black Mountain. This parcel is at the summit of the Mas Belles Eaux slopes.
As with the Carignan, we use Mourvèdre for the Sainte Hélène blend (and Les Coteaux) but also bottle a small amount as a single varietal under the Mas Belles Eaux label. In fact I opened a bottle of our 2008 Mourvèdre on Sunday at the same time as the Carignan, purely for the purposes of comparison, and it was fascinating to see the marked difference in style between the two. They were judged equally enjoyable – the levels in the bottles descended at almost exactly the same rate – but wholly different. This is an experiment I can only encourage you to make yourself, preferably on a regular basis.
Here is a closer look at a recent grafting. In this case, Grenache grafted onto Old Vine Cinsault. We have had considerable success with grafting onto old vines here. This enables us to benefit from the age of the vines and their extensive root structure, but to change grape varieties when we feel appropriate.
Syrah is though, at the heart of the blends for both Sainte Hélène and Les Coteaux. Here are some of our finest Syrah, in the parcel known as la Cacarie.
You can see something of the terroir of Mas Belles Eaux from this picture, deep beds of Villafranchien gravel mixed with ferruginous clay, which gives the soil its typical red colour, and which gives finesse and elegance to the Syrah planted here.
In fact the colour – and indeed the gravel – shows more clearly in the next picture, which is of some older vine Grenache, in the parcel we call Gil. The sun was just setting, which exaggerates the red colour a little, but it really is red.
These photos should give some idea of why we decided to buy here. We spent over 18 months searching before we found Mas Belles Eaux : there is some serious terroir here, capable of producing great wines. There has been a steady progression in quality since we began work in the vineyard. Our aim is to make terroir driven wines here, that express the place they come from: either through a blend of Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Carignan, or sometimes from a single varietal bottling of any of these. There is something magical about the land here, and our aim is to express this in the wines of Mas Belles Eaux.

Many consumers may have been waiting for the new BlackBerry Curve, codenamed Sedona or Apollo at the time, but for some reason RIM decided to pull back on the scheduled plans. Fortunately, a recent leak of the BlackBerry OS 7 for the Curve 9370 has just come to light, and comes packed with some tutorial videos. According to CrackBerry hackers have been able to get their hands on the new OS and have leaked OS 7 for BlackBerry Curve 9350/9370.
Blackberry OS 7 mobile operating system seems to be as intuitive as ever, except carries a more modern twist than your conventional BlackBerry device. You'll notice for one that this OS has a navigation bar rather than having the user cycle through rows and rows of applications.
Since OS 7 isn't compatible with older devices, the leaked ROM can't be installed on any current BlackBerry device. We'll have to wait for the Curve 9350/Curve 9370 (those are Sedona and Apollo respectively) to come out to see how the new OS handles without a touch screen.
Note that the only BlackBerry OS 7 devices that are currently official use the touch screen/portrait QWERTY combo, so their UI and the one on the Curve isn't the same.
Three video tutorials (at the bottom of this article) were extracted from the ROM (they were intended as on-device tutorials). They show how to use the OS with the optical trackpad and the QWERTY keyboard. There's a fourth video that shows how to insert SIM and microSD cards but we'll skip that as it's hardly interesting.
The ROM is for the T-Mobile version of the BlackBerry Curve, though other versions shouldn't be very different. Latest BlackBerry OS 7 update.

This FSU board has served us well for the past months. In addition to hosting important discussions (such as the "bill to kill out-of-state students) and providing invaluable information, it has proved to be instrumental in providing opportunities to meet fellow students in person and to make new friends.
However, this very success may be the downfall of the FSU specific board as most of us who post here now see and talk to each other daily. What more do we have to say? What issues are left to discuss?
I hope this is not true, yet the evidence speaks for itself as few have posted on this board since many of us met on Monday of this week. Have you? How often?

French knots and other hand embroidery stitches decorate Jane LaFazio's quiltlets.
All these new TV shows about fairy tale characters in the contemporary world casting spells and carrying out age-old vendettas has me thinking: If an evil fairy/stepmother/witch cursed me so that I was left with ability to create only one hand embroidery stitch, what would it be?I wouldn't have to think very long—in that split second before the wand flicked its malevolent sparks my way, I'd choose the French knot.There are several reasons why I'd pick the French knot over, say, the buttonhole stitch (which is so useful for edging) or the backstitch (which can create lines).First, the French knot gives you a lot of textural bang for your buck. French knots literally rise above the other basic embroidery stitches, popping right off the fabric.Second, you've heard the term "connect the dots"? Well, you can make a series of French knots close together to form a line or map out a shape, like a constellation.
How to make a French knot like the ones dotting Jane's flower.
Third, French knots stitched close together will fill in a shape and provide shading, especially if you vary the thread colors.Fourth, French knots are very organic. Depending on the color, size, and placement, this embroidery stitch can serve as a lone blossom, a scattered field of flowers, or the honeycombed center of sunflower.Fifth, they're just so much fun to make. I love winding the fiber around the needle, piercing the fabric, and then pulling the thread through to create that perfect little knot. The motion is so relaxing and satisfying.Here are some tips for making a French knot.1. The general rule is, don't wind the thread or fiber around the needle more than twice. If you want a bigger knot, use a thicker thread.
2. After wrapping the thread, place the point of the needle right next to the place it came up from, rather than back in the same hole. That way, the knot will stay anchored on top and not slip right through to the back of the fabric.
3. To add dimension to your French knots, use a variegated thread.Pick up just about any back issue of Quilting Arts and you'll probably find at least one French knot somewhere within the pages. But one of my favorite articles is Jane LaFazio's piece on embroidered quiltets in the October/November 2009 issue. There, she shows the versatility of the French knot, as well as several other embroidery stitches like the blanket stitch, backstitch, and more.What's your favorite hand embroidery stitch, and why? Could you limit yourself to one? Tell me about it in the comments section below.
Oh Wow I never thought about one stitch I liked above all, I just love handstitching, it is very calming to me. I just finished a piece that is made up of nothing but french and colonial knots, it was all done using one strand of floss, everyone is asking what I will do with it and I don't have an answer to that yet, but when I get a good idea I have it waiting :)
I have to admit that French knots are also my favorite. Maybe it's because the name is so fancy. It's the stitch I use the most by far in my artwork. It just gives a lot of texture. Stitch On, Cindy Dubbers
While I use buttons and beads of varying sizes to get the same textural interest in my pieces, I would have to agree that the French knot is incredibly useful, especially if you use different gauges of the same color thread to vary the stitch size. Even "eyelash" yarn with all of those little threads hanging off of the ply
can be used to have a fuzzy knot if you only wrap twice like you suggested.
French knot also my fave. Wish we had more patterns for only French knot. Had one that i made into a pillow with dark blue cording. So fun.
I've loved the French knot since my grandmother taught it to me many, many years ago. I also use it sometimes to attach small bits of fabric or even soft paper to a piece.
I much prefer the colonial knot to the french knot as it offers more consistency in size. Most of my embroidery students have found the colonial knot easier to learn and manage. As to having a favorite stitch, my favorite is whichever one I'm doing at the moment. Each stitch has its own charm.
I also would choose the French knot. I use it in so many projects and recently embellished a quilt with it.
I would have to say that the satin stitch is the ONE stitch I could not be without but all by itself it wants, no - needs- the supporting casts of many other stitches. So that said I would have to go along with the french knot as the best supporting stitch. It adds texture, intrest and does double duty looking like a bead!
Asking me to name my favourite stitch - the one I couldn't live without is like asking me to name my favourite child! I love them all with equal passion especially the more difficult ones that have taken time and practice to master. I had been embroidering for a loooong time before I could make a French knot work so maybe that wouldn't be my most favourite.

COVINGTON - A Covington man was reportedly carjacked at his residence on Meadowridge Drive Wednesday night after he went to warm up his vehicle.The victim told authorities he noticed a suspicious black man, believed to be in his 20s, when he went to crank his vehicle just before 8 p.m. As he was going back inside his residence, the victim said the suspect approached him with a handgun and attempted to rob him, according to Lt. Bill Watterson, spokesman for the Newton County Sheriff's Office. The suspect reportedly told the victim, "Give me everything you got," at which point the victim told the man he didn't have anything, Watterson said. The suspect then demanded that the victim give him everything in his car and forced him to open the trunk. After noticing there was nothing in the trunk either, the suspect, who was described as wearing dark clothing, a red and black racing jacket, black skull cap and dark sunglasses, told the victim to get inside the trunk and a struggle ensued over the weapon, according to the NCSO spokesman. The suspect was able to keep the gun and got inside the vehicle - a silver, 1999 Honda Civic - and fled the scene. In other crime news, two black men are being sought by Newton County authorities following an armed robbery that occurred at the Waffle House on Brown Bridge Road in the early morning hours Wednesday. According to one of the victims, the suspects, who were described as being dressed in dark clothing and carrying handguns, entered the store just after 1 a.m. and ordered everyone to get on the ground, according to an NCSO incident report completed by Deputy Brad Verzinskie. After taking about $600 in cash, the suspects fled the scene. Authorities ask that anyone with information about either of these incidents call the NCSO at 678-625-1403. Tips can be given to the NCSO anonymously at 678-625-5007 or through its Web site at www.newtonsheriffga.org by clicking on "anonymous tip line." Those who want a response from NCSO personnel should leave contact information. Joel Griffin can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

United States Senator Mike Johanns of Nebraska toured Arbor Day Farm in Nebraska City this morning and was keynote speaker for the American Agri-Women mid-year meeting, hosted at Lied Lodge & Conference Center.
Senator Johanns and members of his staff members toured the Tree Adventure attraction at Arbor Day Farm, the greenhouse and hazelnut growing facilities and even worked alongside crew members as they packed tree seedlings to be mailed to Arbor Day Foundation members.
As a member of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry, and the Committee on the Environment and Public Works, Johanns is well-positioned to advance legislation in support of conservation and sustainable development.
We're glad to host the Senator. Of course, with an early apple bloom, this is an ideal time for everyone to visit Arbor Day Farm.
This weekend, visitors to Arbor Day Farm can take a closer look at the blooms on board the Discovery Ride, departing the Tree Adventure at 1pm on Saturday and Sunday. This guided tour includes a stop in the orchards and information about the apple varieties currently in blossom. The cost of the Discovery Ride is $4 for adults, $3 for children ages 3-12 and free for children 2 and under, and is separate from regular Tree Adventure admission.
You can read more about the Senator's visit at the official blog of Lied Lodge and Arbor Day Farm.
In the photo atop, Senator Johanns discusses the Arbor Day Foundation's hybrid hazelnut program with Doug Farrar (left), Vice President of Arbor Day Farm, and Nursery Manager Adam Howard. Below, the Senator takes a turn at packaging tree seedlings.

Stafford's Sing for Stephen concert in honour of Stephen Sutton is cancelled due to poor ticket sales
Posted: July 17, 2014|
A CONCERT in honour of brave Stephen Sutton has been cancelled in Stafford tonight due to poor ticket sales.
The concert for Stephen, who offered inspiration by sharing his experiences of terminal cancer, had been due to be on at Couture nightclub in Newport Road tonight.
It had been due to feature a host of tribute acts, including Abba, Kylie Minogue, Michael Jackson, Take That, Jamiroquai, Michael Buble and Lady Gaga.
The plan was to pull in pounds for the Teenage Cancer Trust, which Stephen tirelessly raised money for.

But organiser Sammy Lines said they had only sold 53 tickets as they had struggled to get it advertised.
"It is upsetting but we couldn't go ahead with so few tickets sold. We are refunding all tickets but if there is anyone who has not yet had a refund then they can contact me and I will sort it out for them."
Stephen, 19, from Burntwood, died in May following a well-documented battle againstthe illness.
It began when he created a bucket list of things he wanted to achieve and his work to raise money for the organisation which had helped him, brought him attention nationwide.
Stephen was such in inspiration that he was posthumously awarded an MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours.
The fund-raising has continued since Stephen's death, with various events being held around the county.
Anyone who would like to claim their refund should call 01785 246914 and 07414 885465.

2012 AIAVT Excellence in Architecture Design Awards
Birdseye Design of Richmond
The fact that this is a net zero building is significant. This is a simple yet elegant solution – even though it was fussed over it doesn't feel that way.
Sellers and Co. Architects of Warren
Jury Comments: We were really impressed with the level of thought and care given to the restoration of this theater. The few new interventions seemed to be totally in keeping with the quality of the original building and are almost seamless. This is a spectacular restoration that was done exceedingly well and it allows you to walk back in time when you enter the lobby. A lot of skill was involved in making repairs that don't appear to be repairs.

Nissan Frontier, the name used for the D40 and D22 generations of pickup trucks manufactured by Nissan, is marketed mainly in the Philippine and South, Central, and North American markets. This product line was first introduced in the market in the year 1998, as an improvement over the earlier model, called the Nissan D21 Hardbody Truck, in the same category.
Although Nissan Frontier was launched in market as the taller, bigger, and longer version of pickup trucks, it is presently included in the mid-sized truck category.
Although Nissan Frontier gained a lot of popularity in the market, many consumers began to encounter serious heater problems with their Frontier. These consumer complaints regarding the Nissan Frontier heater surfaced during 2005-2007. In most cases, the heater fan was found to stop working suddenly. Thus, the major issue was with the inoperative high speed of the fan of the heater. Another rare problem that a few consumers experienced with the heater of 4-cylinder Nissan Frontier was that the fuse was blown off by the fan soon after the engine was turned on.
If you face any such problem, all you have to do is get the resistor replaced. It is this resistor that controls the speed of the heater fan via a switch. Resistor is indeed a very common replacement item and can be obtained from any local auto parts dealer. Fixing the heater issues in your Nissan Frontier is not a big deal. With a little patience, you can fix it yourself at your home. Resistor is actually a small plastic duct that connects the blower motor to the central hump. Once you remove the tin plate and glove box, you can easily access the duct. The switch with 5 wires is just there, beneath glove box.

Nissan Frontier, no doubt, is one among the most terrific pickup trucks introduced by Nissan till date. However, consumers seem to have faced numerous problems with its functioning. The most common problems faced by Nissan Frontier users included the transmission and heater problems. More..

Still Waiting for GodotPosted: 13/11/2013 - 16:55.
Samuel Beckett, the great outsider, the last modernist, the writer of one of theatre's most celebrated plays. The thing is, this is a play with no plot, no beginning, middle or end, no climax and no conclusion. Just how has a play with no story become a mainstay in West End theatre?
At Paris' Théâtre de Babylone, January the 5th 1953, there was a watershed moment in modern theatre, in a playhouse littered with the Parisian high-brow, a play was performed in which Irish Time writer, Vivian Merceir wrote "nothing happens. Twice."
It begins with two homeless men, waiting at a roadside by a lone tree. They are at no time, and at no real place, they are neither here nor there, anywhere and everywhere, waiting for someone who will never turn up.
Regardless of this, the play was a storming success - "All the thousands who claimed they were there could never have been at the premiere. There weren't enough seats," says James Knowlson, Beckett's official biographer.
But why? Why are still waiting for Godot? Maybe it's because the whole thing is completely open to interpretation. It isn't in a time or a place, so it's universally relatable and never dated, it asks the eternal questions of life and death and that bit in-between, but from no particular era. Throughout the years, it's become a critique of apartheid in South Africa to a symbol for a community's recovery in a post-Katrina New Orleans. It's nothingness is it's appeal, it can represent anything to anyone, no matter time or place. It's a play of what it means to be human, which is why it's been cited as such a catalyst for change.
Perhaps the popularity comes back to the writer himself, classically Irish, Knowlson described him as a man who could be "very convivial, very witty, very good company, with a great sense of humour. But there was an element of depression and despair that was part of his life, particularly after the war when he was deeply involved in writing the novels." His name is a literary brand, and his style of avant-garde, dark humour perfect for the Irish 'Face Life Signing' attitude.
Throughout the play, there is a dark comedy lurking under the bleak and the gloom, a lightening to the world's dark. Beckett himself was guilty of the same. An article for the BBC recounts an anecdote of then publisher, John Calder – he once met an anxious Beckett fleeing a plane about to take off. Godot must have been haunting his creator, as the flight began with a cheerful introduction from a 'Captain Godot', welcoming his passengers onbaord.
Beckett's response as he fled?" I wondered if my destiny had caught up with me at last."

^^ Yeah, I would be beating him over the head with the vibrator!!!
During the whole recording, I was thinking, "How did he know she even bought, or even owned this exact make of vibrator?" Then when the dj said her boyfriend put her up to it, it all made sense!
You're thinking to hard about this.
at first i thought he was just saying someone purchased a vibrator and she was just going along with it, but then she sounds like she gets no action.. her voice reminds me of that girl in superstar...

Dr. Raducanu: Per your question above -- ACFAS requires new annual scientific conference DPM speakers to have attended a previous conference (within five years of being invited) so the speaker has a frame of reference of our speaker expectations, quality, etc. This is hardly an onerous requirement and is quite common amongst medical specialty organizations. Also, since we receive numerous requests to speak at our meetings, this helps identify competent and experienced subject experts for our programs.

We've grown up with the notion that lots of lather equals extra clean, healthy hair. This isn't entirely true.
Although foamy shampoos wash away product build-up and grime, they also strip hair of essential oils. When hair is lacking the proper moisture balance, it becomes dry and the color fades. Sulfates are the culprits added to shampoo that produce such wonderful bubbles but unfortunately dry out our hair and scalp.
Sulfate-free shampoos have been around for quite some time in salons but have now reached mass market retailers such as Target, Trader Joe's, Walgreens, CVS and Walmart.
Salon Grafix recently launched Healthy Hair Nutrition Conditioning Cleanser, a sulfate-free all-in-one product ($8.49) for all hair types. It works in place of shampoo, conditioner and detangler, feels like a creamy conditioner without any suds, then rinses to a squeaky clean.
For added shine and softness on extremely dry or chemically treated hair, try the Intensive Hair Repair Masque ($8.49) in addition to the cleanser.

"I studied English since third grade and my ambition was to always play in North America, so I guess I always paid extra attention in class and watched movies and listened to music in English," Landeskog told NHL.com.
Off the ice, the 6-foot, 207-pound left wing, a native of Stockholm, oozes confidence -- his blonde hair and stern grin provide a glimpse of what could be a very marketable asset, too.
On the ice, he backs it up with feistiness reminiscent of two of the game's grittiest Swedes -- Detroit Red Wings forwards Henrik Zetterberg and Johan Franzen. He also admired the way one of the country's most decorated players -- Peter Forsberg -- went about his business on the ice. Heck, he's even gone on record as saying he doesn't want to be considered a "soft European player."
"I think it all started when we were allowed to hit (in Sweden) at age 13," Landeskog said. "My dad used to play, and he was a big, physical defenseman and he gave me advice. He said, 'It's not bad to play physical, and it's an asset to your game.' I started young and came along with it and have been using (that physical approach) to my advantage now."
Tony Landeskog, Gabriel's father, starred in the Swedish Elite League as a defenseman for Hammarby from 1977-85.
But will the no-nonsense approach be good enough to get the 17-year-old drafted by an NHL team at the 2011 Entry Draft in St. Paul, Minn.? The odds certainly are in his favor, since it seems he's already a few strides ahead of the competition.
Landeskog was named captain of the Rangers this season, his second in the OHL. While there's pressure wearing the "C," he's managed to produce 10 goals, 19 points, 32 penalty minutes and a plus-3 rating in 15 games.
"As captain, sometimes guys expect you to step up," he said. "Obviously if you see a guy isn't ready, you have to go up to him and make sure he is. Sometimes on the bench you have to call out a guy too, if he's not doing his job right. Yeah, we're all friends, but when we're at the rink and playing games we have to take that aside and must do what's best for the team. I think sometimes you have to tell a guy what he's doing right or what he's doing wrong.
"You might have to say something you don't want to, but it's all for the team."
Prior to being named Kitchener's Rookie of the Year and becoming a member of the OHL's All-Rookie First Team in 2009-10 after producing 24 goals and 46 points in 61 games, he was the youngest player (16 years, 90 days) to suite up for Djurgarden in the Swedish Elite League.
It was an eye-opening experience for Landeskog, who felt primed for the challenge.
"It was kind of a shock because I didn't expect it," he said. "I was playing with a junior team and then my coach called me one Friday night and said that I was going to practice with the men's team the next day and there might even be a chance I could play after that, so I started jumping around at home. I didn't know at the time that I would be the youngest, but it was one of the biggest moments for me, for sure."
"I was unsure what to expect … not planned at all," he said. "But I felt like I could take that next step and I was really close on making it, so it really opened my eyes that I had come a long way. It's been a big goal of mine to play in the elite league, so it was dream come true when it happened."
That opportunity, it seems, was all it took.
"I had the chance to return to the elite league or play Canadian junior hockey and I wanted to play in North America (prior to 2009-10)," he said. "Canadian junior hockey has always been one of my dreams, so I've always been updated on how it's been. I kind of felt that when the opportunity came up, I really thought it would be interesting.
"To come here to Kitchener and play with a team that believed I would improve as a player and also a person is great -- because moving from home to another country is tough."
Particularly for a player who turns 18 on Nov. 23. But Landeskog, who openly admits he wasn't a very good hockey player at a younger age, has a knack for the game. Perhaps it's something the scouts, general managers and coaches on hand at the 2010 NHL Research, Development and Orientation Camp Fueled by G Series in August will remember come June.
"When I turned junior age, I think I matured a bit, both physically and mentally," Landeskog said. "Hockey began going a lot better than before. My parents got divorced, but nothing really ever changed for me hockey-wise. That's what got me through."
Landeskog, who competed for Sweden at the 2009 World Under-18 Championships and was also selected to compete in the U-20 Four Nations Tournament in Finland, enjoys watching how a few of the NHL's big hitters consistently get it done.
"I try and pattern my game like Jarome Iginla (of Calgary) and Mike Richards (of Philadelphia)," Landeskog told NHL.com. "They're kind of my role models. I look a lot like how they play, and I want to be a leader like they are for their teams."

"Louisiana-Lafayette is always a hard fought battle, and I think both teams played well," said head coach George Van Linder.
NSU (5-5) got off to an early start, scoring at the 20-minute mark when Balmer earned her first collegiate goal as sophomore Taylor Mulnix crossed the ball in from outside of the box directly to goalkeeper Amanda Moorefield. Moorfield bobbled the ball and lost control, giving Balmer the scoring opportunity.
"We played well in the first half, but let too many opportunities slip away from us in the second," said Van Linder.
ULL was granted a penalty kick less than nine minutes into the second half, and did not hesitate to take advantage of it. Hayden Gibson shot low and into the corner, out of reach of freshman goalkeeper Brooke Bourbonais.
Ashlee Savona had a chance to put the Lady Demons on top with a penalty kick, but was unsuccessful.
With nine minutes remaining in the game, the Ragin' Cajuns' Melissa Minton found the back of the net as she dribbled into the box and shot low.
The Lady Demons host Central Arkansas on Friday as they open up Southland Conference play. Kick-off is slated for 7 p.m. at the Lady Demon Soccer Complex

1. Canned Tomatoes
The problem: The resin linings of tin cans contain bisphenol-A, a synthetic estrogen that has been linked to ailments ranging from reproductive problems to heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.
The solution: Choose tomatoes in glass bottles (which do not need resin linings), such as the brands Bionaturae and Coluccio. You can also get several types in Tetra Pak boxes, like Trader Joe's and Pomi.
2. Corn-Fed BeefThe problem: Cattle evolved to eat grass, not grains. But farmers today feed their animals corn and soybeans, which fatten up the animals faster for slaughter.
The solution: Buy grass-fed beef, which can be found at specialty grocers, farmers' markets, and nationally at Whole Foods. It's usually labeled because it demands a premium, but if you don't see it, ask your butcher.
3. Microwave Popcorn
The problem: Chemicals, including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), in the lining of the bag, are part of a class of compounds that may be linked to infertility in humans, according to a recent study from UCLA. In animal testing, the chemicals cause liver, testicular, and pancreatic cancer.
The solution: Pop natural kernels the old-fashioned way: in a skillet. For flavorings, you can add real butter or dried seasonings, such as dillweed, vegetable flakes, or soup mix.
4. Nonorganic Potatoes
The problem: Root vegetables absorb herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides that wind up in soil. In the case of potatoes—the nation's most popular vegetable—they're treated with fungicides during the growing season, then sprayed with herbicides to kill off the fibrous vines before harvesting. After they're dug up, the potatoes are treated yet again to prevent them from sprouting. "Try this experiment: Buy a conventional potato in a store, and try to get it to sprout. It won't.
The solution: Buy organic potatoes. Washing isn't good enough if you're trying to remove chemicals that have been absorbed into the flesh.
5. Farmed Salmon
The problem: Nature didn't intend for salmon to be crammed into pens and fed soy, poultry litter, and hydrolyzed chicken feathers. As a result, farmed salmon is lower in vitamin D and higher in contaminants, including carcinogens, PCBs, brominated flame retardants, and pesticides such as dioxin and DDT.
The solution: Switch to wild-caught Alaska salmon. If the package says fresh Atlantic, it's farmed. There are no commercial fisheries left for wild Atlantic salmon.
6. Milk Produced with Artificial Hormones
The problem: Milk producers treat their dairy cattle with recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH or rBST, as it is also known) to boost milk production. In people, high levels of IGF-1 may contribute to breast, prostate, and colon cancers.
The solution: Check labels for rBGH-free, rBST-free, produced without artificial hormones, or organic milk. These phrases indicate rBGH-free products.
7. Conventional Apples
The problem: If fall fruits held a "most doused in pesticides contest," apples would win. Why? They are individually grafted (descended from a single tree) so that each variety maintains its distinctive flavor. As such, apples don't develop resistance to pests and are sprayed frequently.
The solution: Buy organic apples. If you can't afford organic, be sure to wash and peel them first.____________________________________________________
Surprisingly, we have been able to avoid most of these issues. I knew about the BPA in tomato cans and have reminded Nick to stop buying them for his sauces. It's not automatic for him to reach for the glass jar just yet but we are getting there. Last fall when I went apple picking, I went to the ONLY farm near us that had organic apples. It turned out that due to the very wet summer we had, the organic apples were affected by blight. We had to turn to the conventional apples. Do I feel better that they claim to use "less" pesticides than other apple farm? No...but I sure do like me some apples. Hopefully next year the organic apples will be back for us to enjoy with no guilt.

Okay, so I get lazy sometimes and get caught up doing other things, or just can't be bothered. Today was one of those days. It was rainy, there was washing to be done and the day just seemed to fly by. Before I knew it, it was dinner time and I couldn't be bothered baking. There's always the Sunday night routine of getting the husband's work clothes ready, Kindy (and normally school) lunches to be made so no chance of baking tonight.
A packet of Arnott's Milk Arrowroot biscuits is always good to have on hand. I grew up on these and loved them with just butter or butter and jam. Many a time, over the years, I have used them as an activity for the kids, getting them to ice the biscuits and then covering in lollies and sprinkles and getting to eat them. They are also usually the first solid food we give to our babies, letting them munch on them until they are one soggy mess and you spend the next 2 years trying to get the mush out of the high chair crevices.
I love how they are the perfect egg shape and always good around Easter time. Tonight, I just iced and decorated with a few sprinkles for a play date morning tea we're going to tomorrow morning. The kids will love them. I've kept the extra icing and will freeze for another time when I'm looking for an activity to keep the kids occupied.

I was looking at Athena's pedigree on allbreedpedigree.com, and found out that Athena's great grandfather Wendepunkt is actually a Hanoverian! My old trainer/Athena's old owner actually thinks that her "Oldenburg" mare out of Another Spray by Wendepunkt (i think that's how you say it) is foaling all these Oldenburgs! She has sold more then 10 foals and claimed them as being Oldenburgs when they're actually Hanoverians. I was even fooled, even thought I bought Athena for Athena and not because of her pedigree but still! I can't believe everyone was fooled in to that! Is there actually another stallion named Wendepunkt that is really an Oldenburg, or is there only a Hanoverian one?
Here's a picture of Wendepunkt (hanoverian):

These teens are called the Farm and Wilderness Questers and every year they spend 48 days hiking the entire length of Vermont's Long Trail. The Farm and Wilderness website explains that this trip , "is geared toward success through learning and practicing extended-trip principles like route and menu planning, pacing, and appropriate packing." The trip is led by two leaders with a great deal of experience in trip leading and group dynamics. Here at the Green Mountain Club, we are honored that the Long Trail can be an important part of these teens' learning and development as they move forward in their lives. Last year, the Questers created a short slideshow with interviews and commentary from the participants. This video is a fantastic testament to the importance of outdoor learning in the lives of youth as well as to the beauty and wonder of Vermont's Long Trail.

Saturday, November 17, 2007
© Copyright 2015 Newton Citizen
COVINGTON - The number of students in the Newton County School System receiving free or reduced-priced meals has increased more than 5 percent over the last five years.Jan Loomans, director of school nutrition for the school system, said during Tuesday's Board of Education meeting that this school year, 53 percent of students receive a free or reduced-price meal. In the 2003-04 school year, more than 47 percent received a free or reduced-price meal. Loomans said the current percentage is on track with the state average of between 50 and 53 percent. To receive a free meal, the annual income for a household size of two is $17,979 or the applicant must have a food stamp case number, be homeless or be a foster child. For reduced-price status, the annual income for a household size of two is $25,327. "As the household size goes up, the required income also goes up," Loomans said. To be considered for free and reduced-price lunch, all applicants have to do is fill out an application at the beginning of each school year. "It's on an honor system," Loomans said. She said every year the federal government requires that every student get an application and the schools cannot require proof of income with the form. The school system is able to verify applications in certain instances, though, during the annual verification period or if there is a cause for concern. "The federal government requires that Oct. 1 to Nov. 15 of each year we verify a certain number of applicants," Loomans said. "We have to look at error-prone applications, which are within $100 of the annual maximum." The school system can also require documentation if someone has reason to suspect an inaccuracy on the application. "I think there's a lot of confusion and misunderstanding, but I do think there are problems with reporting income," Loomans said. "It's a tough situation." The school system also can verify income on a second application, which would have been submitted after the first one was denied or on reduced-price status. This year, the system verified 1.5 percent of the total number of applications on file as of Oct. 1. They also verified some that were suspected, Loomans said. None of those suspected applications were denied because the family provided the information, but a few of the ones selected for verification during the annual period were denied, Loomans said. If the application is denied after being verified, the school system will send a letter to the parents announcing that the child's benefits will be discontinued within 10 days, Loomans said. "We give them the opportunity to provide us this income (information)," she said. If the once-covered student arrives at school without money, the school will allow him or her to charge a meal or provide another meal for free. "We never want a child to go hungry," Loomans said. In elementary schools, if a student reaches his or her charge limit, the school will provide them with a lunch. In middle and high schools, the cashier will hold the tray until the student can find money. If he or she cannot come up with the money, the student can get a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a carton of milk. "Generally, if the child consistently arrives at the cashier with no money, the school counselor gets involved," Loomans said. In some instances, she said the school may have to contact social services regarding the situation. Michelle Floyd can be reached at email@example.com.

Dr. McDonough: Recent Meningitis Cases Do Not Constitute Outbreak
CBS Philly (con't)
Affordable Care Act Updates: CBSPhilly.com/ACA
Health News & Information: CBSPhilly.com/Health
By Dr. Brian McDonough
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – It is a question that's being raised, and is certainly worth asking. With two well-publicized cases of meningitis in the area, are we experiencing an outbreak of meningitis? The answer, quite simply, is no.
These are isolated cases in two different settings: one at Drexel University and one at a Skippack elementary school. In addition, we're talking about different strains of meningitis, both quite serious.
The important point here is that people who are in close personal contact with those individuals get treated with what is called prophylactic medication. We are worried most in those cases about the bacteria being spread through direct contact.
The bottom line here though is there is nothing for the general public to be worried about, except the normal precautions we would all take.

Full view of "Serenity" (41 1/2" x 14 1/2") by Susan Purney Mark. See more of Susan's work in the February/March 2014 issue of Quilting Arts Magazine and check out her article "Soy Wax and Shibori-Style Resist."
Susan - I really rated your quilt 5 stars - I thought I could click the stars 1 thru 5 - but obviously I should have started at the top, not the bottom :( so sorry. This is fabulous - as is your article in the February/March 2014 issue of Quilting Arts Magazine - just received mine in the mail today! Congratulations on the article and all your success - Georgia Andrews
Whew - it eventually allowed me to click the 5 stars!
