Hamilton will go fourth and multiply
Alonso wins . . . but Lewis promises to return as the british hero
Published 11/07/2011
Lewis Hamilton has vowed to repay the legions of British fans for their overwhelming support with a Silverstone success story in the future.
Hamilton hailed yesterday's race as one of the best British Grands Prix of all time, despite finishing fourth, 29 seconds behind Ferrari's Fernando Alonso.
But after all the negativity and flak Hamilton has faced leading up to this race with regard to his driving style, his performance was vintage, and one in the eye for his critics.
The first few laps, in particular, showed McLaren star Hamilton at his best, weaving his way up to fifth from 10th on the grid and in tricky conditions given a rain shower that had soaked around three quarters of the circuit an hour before the start.
One brilliant manoeuvre on Alonso epitomised his courage, diving down the inside of the Spaniard into Copse where it was still wet having shortly beforehand switched to slick tyres.
There were brief hopes of victory soon after the second stop when he closed to within a second of Alonso, who at that stage had taken up the lead.
But it was not to be, not in a car lacking performance compared to the Ferrari and Red Bulls, with Sebastian Vettel edging team-mate Mark Webber to claim second and
so open up an 80-point lead.
And certainly not after being told to save fuel 15 laps from home, allowing Felipe Massa to close in the dying stages.
That resulted in a titanic last-lap struggle and last-corner collision from which Hamilton just gained the upper hand to cross the line by centimetres from the Brazilian.
That was a measure of his never-say-die spirit, and some reward for the majority of a 120,000-plus crowd who had lifted him in the wake of his qualifying performance on Saturday afternoon. I feel massively exhilarated," said Hamilton.
"The conditions made it exciting, gave us a chance to get up there, and I was able to show my true talent and skill over those early laps.
"I was the fastest on the track, even though I didn't have the best car, so that felt fantastic for me, and the fans were phenomenal.
"Even though we didn't win, I still feel it has been one of the best Silverstone grands prix of all time.
"Other drivers have different opinions about what energy they get from their fans, but it's all positive energy for me.
"When we did the parade lap you could see all the (McLaren) tops, the flags and the messages they put on them. It all adds up.
"I was 10th at the start, but the support I was getting it was almost as if I was on pole.
"That's the thing with the fans, whether we are winning or losing, they are with you all the way, and I just can't wait for the time we are at the front and we are able to win for them."
As for team-mate Jenson Button, he must feel there is a curse over him for this race as his record of never finishing on the podium has now been extended to 12 races.
On this occasion his front-right wheel came loose as he pulled away from his third stop 12 laps from
home as the wheel nut had not been fitted when a potential top-three finish was on the cards.
"Sorry to the fans, I wish we could have done more. It seems that way at the British Grand Prix for me over the last few years," said Button.
"But we all make mistakes, and you always hope they won't happen to you, but this is even more disappointing because it's at Silverstone.
"But I'll come back next year, I'll hopefully have a strong car and we won't make any mistakes."
In the end Alonso won by 20 seconds from Vettel, who had his own issues at a pit stop with his rear-left tyre, costing him the lead.
Alonso did not look back, giving Ferrari their first win for 11 races, and on the 60th anniversary of their maiden F1 win — at Silverstone in the British Grand Prix.
After clinching what was the 27th victory of his career, to lift him up to fifth in the all-time standings alongside Sir Jackie Stewart, Alonso said: "This is a very special win.
"For me it's special to race for this team, to give them my maximum capacity and maximum abilities for a good result. This is team work and I'm very happy for them."
For the third Briton in Paul di Resta, a seventh-placed finish was on the cards until five minutes to forget that left him trailing home in 15th in his Force India.
At his second stop his pit crew came out with the tyres that were meant for team-mate Adrian Sutil, losing him considerable time.
Shortly after returning to the track Toro Rosso' Sebastien Buemi ran over the front wing of his car, forcing him back into the pits for a new nose, costing him any hope of a points finish.

Environmental Assessment
The Concentration and Distribution of 2,3,7,8-Dibenzo-P-Dioxins/Furans in Chickens
Report Information
The concentrations of 2,3,7,8-Cl substituted dibenzo-p-dioxins/-furans (PCDDs/PCDFs) were determined in the edible tissues of whole chicken fryers and compared with the values found in their abdominal fat. The values are presented both on a whole weight basis and on a lipid-adjusted basis for each tissue. While there is a marked difference in the concentration of the 2,3,7,8-dibenzo-p-dioxins in the edible tissues expressed on a whole weight bais, the lipid-adjusted concentrations of the individual dioxins were not statistically different in the various tissues. This validates the use of lipid adjusted concentrations of 2,3,7,8-PCDDs/PCDFs in abdominal fat for the determination of the presence of these compounds in different tissues.

Gourmet Night At Flying Pie Pizzaria!
Every Tuesday night at all three locations (Boise & Meridian), an event called Gourmet Night comes to life. People madly revel in strange and unusual pizzas (with a few normal ones mixed in to keep perspective), and wash them all down with
plentiful libations of every stripe.
Every week there is a large number of vegetarian pizzas, a solid number of pizzas from our regular menu, some rotating exotics, and every so often, something truly unique. A lot of the pizzas now found on our "Normal" menu began their lives as Gourmet Night Pizzas, until Boise's tastes acclimated to our chef's imaginations.
Every week we offer six selections from our regular menu (Cheese, Phosgo, Samoan, Pepperoni, Zambini and Vegy).
Every week there are five magnificent Vegetarian options and seven meat options, a total of twelve dizzying choices, not counting dessert (yes, we're serious).
Each week there are six pizzas that weren't on the menu the week before (some of which haven't appeared in many weeks). These will include a special Chicken Pizza, a special Mexican Pizza, two vegetarian Gourmet Pizzas,
two meaty Gourmet Pizzas.
Every week both stores offer a dessert pizza, and all the salad bar and breadsticks you want!
Just reading about all that is enough to fill some people up!
Certain Gourmet Night pizzas have developed a cult like following which is what has driven us to update the list of selections each week, here on the web. We tire of listening to whining when folks miss the week their favorite pizza is featured!
Additionally, we now have the ability to make a few folks a WHOLE pizza of their favorite, on the Tuesday where it is being featured on Gourmet night. These must be pre-ordered, by Sunday 12 PM so that we can adjust our shopping trip
for the week. So all of you GYRO fanatics can now get your fix almost every other week, by checking to see which store is featuring it this week.
1. What time does it start?
6:00 pm every Tuesday.
1. How long does it last?
9:00 pm. We may sell out before 9pm.
2. What is it?
It's the night with a $8.50 cover, and then all the food is free. It's a buffet style dinner of 12 different flavors of pizza, including 6 featured Gourmet Pies and 6 Specialty pies, as well as all-you-can-enjoy breadsticks and salad.
3. How does it work?
We make 12 different styles of pizzas rotate into the mix. When a particular pizza comes up, generally after 11 more pizzas another of the same kind will come out. Under certain circumstances we'll bump the order, especially for kids who are antsy for plain Pepperoni or cheese.
4. How much does it cost?
$8.50 for adults, $5 for kids age 9-12, $3 for kids age 5-8, and kids under 5 are free.
5. Does it come with a drink?
No but you can get a refillable glass of soda for $1.60 more.
6. Are you doing the Gyro tonight?
We do a Gyro pizza every four weeks (or once a month). To find out if this is the week, check the upcoming menu for both stores below.
8. When's the dessert pizza coming out?
Dessert pies come out at 7pm and 8pm.

Trying to build on lessons learned from Pennsylvania's drilling debacle, state Sen. Greg Ball continued his campaign for tougher regulations on hydraulic fracturing in New York State at Lewisboro Library this past Wednesday.
Ball's presentation, which was borrowed from the executive director of the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission, focused on the environmental impacts of "fracking," specifically its affects on groundwater and public health risks associated with the natural gas extraction process. Through comparing Pennsylvania's current environmental mess and civil unrest to what could potentially happen in New York should it go unregulated, Ball has drawn attention to the need for tighter restrictions if fracking is realized as an industry in the state.
"[Pennsylvania] just doesn't have the manpower to prevent—they have more punitive manpower in place but they can't prevent it and they're actually actively allowing it because they lack the regulations to protect the environment and the water supply," Ball said. "When you're in Pennsylvania, you realize it's the sportsmen, the farmers and the private property owners that are being affected."
During the presentation, Ball spotlighted the cocktail of chemicals used when companies expel the water solution deep down into the Earth to fracture the rock; a mixture of surfactants, organics, metals and radioactive elements—all of which go largely unregulated, resulting in groundwater contamination and polluted runoff into lakes, streams and ponds. The slideshow also highlighted the wasteful nature of these drilling companies, which use about 10 billion gallons a day for fracking.
"The wars of the future are going to be fought not over oil, but over water and we have gotten away for a very long time in the Northeast with having a vast supply of water," Ball said. "So this is very scary talking about a resource like this that can become easily contaminated." (READ MORE)

Lisa Hype gets nude with Kartel - Explicit promotional photos for new single
Lisa Hype (left), Black Ryno (in background) and Vybz Kartel onstage at the Hype TV Awards ceremony for the music industry, held at Seymour Avenue on Thursday, February 26. - Winston Sill
Deejay Vybz Kartel might be raising a few more eyebrows again with the release of some more explicit promotion pictures with himself and Portmore Empire's Lisa Hype.
THE STAR received the pictures yesterday via email from Vybz Kartel before being released in the streets. The photos will be used to promote the collaboration between the two artistes in a song titled Come Whine Fi Mi.
In the photos, up and coming artiste Lisa Hype appears to be completely nude, with various shots of Kartel using his hands to cover Hype's breasts and private parts. While in other photos, Hype is wearing Kartel's jacket and using her hands to shield her breasts.
Something fresh
When contacted, Kartel explained, "The song is called Whine For Me produced by Adidjahiem/Notnice records, it's Lisa Hype featuring Addi Di Teacha. The people miss collabs like this in dancehall, so with the success of the Rampin' Shop we just followed up with something fresh, fresh artiste like Lisa Hype who is signed to Adidjahiem/Notnice and is the official first lady. So it was only right to start of her year with a bang."
This is not the first time that Kartel has used raunchy photos to promote a new collaboration. Late last year, photos of Kartel and Spice circulated in the streets and on the Internet to promote Rampin' Shop, with shots of the two in bed together with Spice dressed in just her underwear. While these photos are more raunchy, unlike the collaboration between Kartel and Spice, the song Come Whine Fi Mi is completely clean and fit for airplay.
The song touches on the issue of marriage as Kartel deejays, "yuh know di love inna mi heart fi yuh a bloom," with Lisa Hype responding, "mi vow till death do part we nah go bruk di rules." With such a tender song and explicit pictures, persons might wonder if the two are involved. However, Kartel stated that they are not involved romantically.
This is the latest song from Kartel who has other songs out, including Come Breed Fi Mi featuring Indu, U A Mi Baby and the recent release of his latest video for the single Mamma.

Easy to moderate hiking over boardwalks and through the boulders of Devil's Half Acre and Roaring Rocks.
5.7 miles. Easy to moderate. The "Ridge Trail" is rocky, and there is some minor elevation gain. Even though it's called the "Ridge" trail, there are no views from any of the trails.
- Shorter: 5.0 miles – follow only the SQUARES of the Ridge trail
- Short: 1.4 miles "Maple Flats" (TRIANGLE only), and .5 miles Pondside (CIRCLE only).
- Also: There are several trails marked "C" (Connecting) throughout the park, which can be used to shorten the hike at several points.
Hike Info:
Mountain biking, horseback riding and bouldering are also allowed. From info located online, this appears to be a no-hunting park.
Update 11/15/14: The unmarked trail that bypasses some switchbacks at marker 7 has been blocked, so that option been removed from the description.
Update 1/24/13: Since this hike was posted in 2009, the "Roaring Brook Trail" (RED, 2.1 miles) has been added to the park, and the location of Marker 7 moved. The description and GPS file has been updated to reflect the addition, and the route is now longer.
January 2013:
August 2009:
Map: Print out the map from the park site, and maps may be in the trail kiosk.
Books: None of the books we have mention the Roaring Brook trail. A variation of this hike (Ridge Trail only, 5 miles) can be found in Best Day Hikes Near Philadelphia; another variation appears in 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: New York City but is out-of-date in the area of marker #7 (it's still a really worthwhile book to get though, lots of great hikes!).
Parking: N40 28.428 W74 41.655
East Mountain Road, Hillsborough, NJ 08844. Directions can be found on the park site.
Restrooms: Porta-john in the parking lot.
Hike Directions: Overview: Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) – Roaring Brook (RED Circle) – Ridge Trail (WHITE Square).
There are several trails marked "C" (Connecting) throughout the park, which can be used to shorten the hike. Trail junctions have numbered signs that coorespond to the trail map.
The trailhead for all trails starts behind the trail kiosk, near the treeline.
0.0 miles – Start following Ridge Trail (WHITE Square)
0.2 miles – Continue straight on Ridge Trail (WHITE Square), passing Marker #1 on the left.
0.6 miles – Continue straight, passing a "C" Connecting trail on the left. The trail heads uphill and loops through an area of large boulders.
Continue straight, passing the other end of a "C" Connecting trail on the left
1.8 miles – Pass another "C" Connecting trail on the left, and then shortly after that the trail splits in a "Y" at Marker #4.
Veer right to start following Roaring Brook (RED Circle). [The Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) continues off to the left]
3.3 miles – Roaring Brook (RED Circle) ends in an area of large boulders.
Start following the Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) as it veers to the right – though we don't recall seeing a blaze at this point. [The Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) also goes to the left]
3.5 miles – Marker #7 is near a very large cairn (hiker pile-o-rocks). Continue straight on the Ridge Trail (WHITE Square)*. [A "C" Connecting trail goes left and leads to marker #6]
Follow the Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) down several switchbacks before the trail levels out, and arrives at an opening in a chain link fence.
3.9 miles – Walk through the fence opening to Marker #8, and continue straight on Ridge Trail (WHITE Square). [A "C" Connecting trail goes left, also leading to Marker #9]
4.3 miles – Marker #9. Continue straight on Ridge Trail (WHITE Square). [A "C" Connecting trail goes left, leading back to Marker #8. Right leads out to Rt. 601.]
Pass some stone remnants of a structure. There are several boardwalks and stone pathways in wet areas.
5.0 miles – Marker #10 [Also marked with a Triangle]. Turn RIGHT, following the Ridge Trail (WHITE Square).
5.4 miles – Marker #11. Cross the pipeline cut and the Ridge Trail (WHITE Square) continues on the other side.
5.5 miles – Marker #12 [Also marked with a Triangle and Circle]. Turn RIGHT and head towards a pond on a grassy area in a field. At the pond, the parking lot will be visible off to the left.

Congressional candidate applying Obama's techniques in race
"It's up!" social media expert Cindy Faith Swain shouts with surprise and glee, pointing to a YouTube video of 24th Congressional District candidate Marie Panec.
A small group of intrigued Panec supporters crane their necks to take a look.
Inside a two-story house in Newbury Park on Saturday morning, a few dozen Panec supporters put their heads together with one goal in mind: Pull off the ultimate political upset.
Panec is one of three Democratic candidates vying to challenge Republican Rep. Elton Gallegly in California's 24th Congressional District. The other challengers are Tim Allison and Shawn Stern.
Gallegly was first elected to Congress in November 1986. In a heavily Republican district, Gallegly has had little trouble over the decades knocking off all Democrat primary winners.
All three Democratic challengers say this year will be different.
With Gallegly's margin of victory getting smaller each year, and the number of registered Democrats and decline-to-state voters increasing in the district, the Democrats and their supporters believe this time there is a sliver of opportunity.
With the election on June 8, and absentee ballots arriving in mailboxes in the next few days, all of the campaigns are making heavy pushes this month to reach voters.
Many Democrats are also still basking in the glory of the successful grass-roots Obama campaign, hoping that some of that enthusiasm will carry over two years later to local campaigns.
On this day, Panec and her supporters tried to rally the troops to use Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, hang campaign literature on doorknobs and make telephone calls, all to get the word out on Panec, a longtime biology teacher at Moorpark College and Oak Park Unified School District board member.
While volunteer meetings intended to focus on strategy and organization are common in most campaigns, Panec's crew claims that this campaign is unique in that it will not focus on fundraising and endorsements.
"Fundraising has been a real challenge," said Daniel Tamm, a campaign consultant for the Panec campaign. "We are doing a lot of things that don't cost money."
Instead they are targeting social media and virtual "phone banks."
"This is how we are going to win this election, by getting everyone to make calls from home," said a fiery Tamm, holding a telephone script in one hand and thrusting his finger at the audience with the other.
If the strategy sounds familiar, that's because it is.
Ripping a page out of the Obama playbook, Tamm and the others believe the keys to victory lie in the ability of volunteers to make calls at their own convenience, and any time, from their homes, rather than make the traditional calls from a central location.
It helped Obama win Iowa, which set the tone for the rest of the presidential campaign.
"It's the best thing in the world," said Harrison Homel, a 20-year-old Moorpark college political science major, who leads the phone- banking efforts.
"Talking to voters is the single-best way to reach out, and doing it from home, that freedom is incredible."
Homel said the key to phone banking is to simply raise awareness about the candidate and leave a good impression on people's minds.
Students from Newbury Park High School, Moorpark College and CSU Channel Islands all have a hand in Panec's outreach efforts.
In a training exercise on Saturday, Tamm attempted to show the volunteers how to read through a script when calling voters.
They are targeting high-propensity voters, and if the person who picks up the phone is not the person on the list, volunteers are scripted to politely say goodbye.
Reached after the event, Allison said his campaign is using the same software program to reach voters.
"It is pretty standard after the Obama campaign," Allison said. "Everybody is going to be doing it at this level."
The other part of Allison's and Panec's strategy is that they are not only attempting to sell themselves to voters but also trying to convince the public that the other cannot beat Gallegly.
"The most important factor for Democrats in June is which candidate is most able to beat Gallegly in the fall," said Allison, a longtime community organizer and businessman.
"What we are hearing is that we are the candidate who can beat Gallegly in the fall."
Panec, who was at Saturday's event for about 90 minutes, said the same thing about herself.
"I am the one with the experience who will appeal to voters in the fall," Panec said.

Rob Kardashian Hits LAX With Kris Jenner for Flight to Kim's Wedding After Dodging Cameras for Weeks: Pictures
After dodging cameras for weeks, Rob Kardashian is back in the spotlight. The reality star, 27, hit Los Angeles International Airport this week with his mother, Kris Jenner.
The pair is en route to Europe for Kim Kardashian's upcoming nuptials to Kanye West. Click here for more recent photos of the Kardashian family.
PHOTOS: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: the perfect match
Rob, who has been struggling with his weight, prioritized comfort for his Los Angeles-departing flight. He wore a black T-shirt and black pants, accessorizing with a blue baseball cap and neon and white Nike sneakers.
Jenner, 58, also went all-black for the international travel. She kicked her dark ensemble up a notch with black shades and black Alaia heels.
PHOTOS: Kris Jenner through the years
The one son of the Kardashian clan has been quietly staying out of the spotlight in recent months. There have been various reports that he enrolled in a weight loss program, and he expressed internal struggles over Twitter last month when he tweeted, "No one will ever understand how much it hurts."
He later deleted the tweet and has largely stayed off social media since.
Sources told Us in March that Rob has been doing daily workouts with sister Khloe Kardashian's trainer, Gunnar Peterson, for months. However, he has yet to drop the weight. An insider told Us, "Doctors think it could be a thyroid problem," but noted that the troubled star also "binge eats."

This quick and easy dish is always a favorite. It has just a hint of spicey flavor and can be cooked in 15 to 20 min. One thing to keep in mind, I don't use exact measurements. When it comes to spices I just sprinkle on what looks right.
YIELD: 2 People
Ingredients2 lb Boneless skinless chicken breast
1 cup white rice
1-2 cups baby spinich
garlic powder
oinion powder
curry powder
chilli pepper
sprinkling of shredded cheese
PreparationThe rice: cook the rice according to package instructions or in a rice cooker.
The chicken: sauté the defrosted chicken breast in a little bit of olive oil. Season to taste with the salt, pepper, garlic powder, oinion powder, curry powder, chili powder, and paprika.
While the chicken and rice are cooking put a handful of baby spinich on each plate.
When the chicken is cooked take it out of the pan and set it aside. Put the cooked rice in the chicken pan and sauté briefly to allow the rice to season.
Take the seasoned rice and put it on top of the baby spinich.
Now put the chicken back in the pan and sauté briefly with the salsa.
Lastly, place the chicken on top of the rice and sprinkle the cheese over the top of each plate.

Today, I continue re-posting the site, after my incredible, total-loss of two years of work earlier this month. As I am doing that, I am re-reading and re-evaluating the content of my text files.
The post called Taming the Shrew was about my discovery of a single Old Testament verse that freed me from the life sentence I had given myself as a battered wife.
Here is a link to the revised version of the original post: Taming the Shrew
As I was reviewing this post, I discovered that I had referred to the verse, but did not name it. By now, so many years later, I had forgotten where it was. I was very disappointed in myself for that. I determined to find the verse, and include it in the post. It wasn't an easy task. I could not seem to find the exact quote. Back then I never had trouble finding something I wanted to read again, I spent a lot of time in that book. I finally resorted to Google. (shame on me.)
Google did turn up a few interesting things, and it seems that I am not the only one who has ever "discovered" that "god" does not give a husband permission to beat, berate, terrify or kill his wife.
Since this is a blog, the older stuff gets sent to the back of the line. The quotes are from different sources. The more the better. Here is a list of those posts… just in case you are interested:

Jimmy Fallon Makes Terrified Kevin Hart Ride a Roller Coaster for The Tonight Show: Watch!
Kevin Hart may be brave enough to perform in front of thousands of people, but one thing that he does not have the guts to do is ride a roller coaster.
The comedian, 34, stopped by The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon this week, where he admitted his fear of the rides. See the best talk show moments of all time.
PHOTOS: Celebs on roller coasters!
"I don't like 'em," Hart told Fallon. "You know damn well I don't like no roller coasters."
The show is broadcasting from Universal Orlando theme park in Florida this week, so Fallon, 39, took advantage of the location to help Hart overcome his fears.

PHOTOS: Celebrities at theme parks
The funny man, who was on the talk show to promote his new movie Think Like a Man Too, was convinced by Fallon to ride Universal Studios' Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit coaster.
"My palms were so clammy… I don't like roller coasters, and you made me do it," Hart said.
PHOTOS: Celeb families' summer fun
"Think like a man, we gotta act like a man!" Fallon retorted. "We manned up."
The two men braved the fast-moving roller coaster in a filmed segment, which shows Hart losing it and wailing as he and Fallon whip around curves and drops.
Watch the hilarious video above!

LNP Announces High Flow Composites
LNP announces the introduction of a new, high-impact 30% glass-fiber reinforced nylon 6 composite called Thermotuf PF-1006 HI EP. Designated EP for "exceptional processing," and containing a proprietary set of additives, this new composite offers superior surface finish, higher melt flow, greatly reduced cycle times, and lower mold and stock temperatures than other standard nylon 6 resins. LNP says the new composite offers more than 50% greater impact strength over a standard glass-fiber reinforced nylon 6. And, because it is an easy flow material, cycle times are greatly reduced, resulting in higher productivity and significant cost savings for both processors and OEMS. Ward's Info No. 191

Engelhard Purifier Cuts NG Emissions
Engelhard Corp. has introduced an improved line of TWX air purifiers developed specifically for industrial users of four-stroke, rich-burn, natural gas engines to address their need for a proven, cost-effective method of reducing emissions without diminishing the overall performance of the engine. The purifier can be used with most commercially available air/fuel ratio control systems, is guaranteed to reduce NOx by more than 90% and CO by more than 80%, and can be customized to achieve even higher performance levels, says the company. The catalyst can also be used for NOx reduction without air/fuel ratio control and can still achieve reductions of 50% or more. The purifier catalyst is manufactured using a patented Engelhard catalyst technology that preferentially locates the precious metal components within the coating, maximizing conversion efficiency and performance. Units can be mounted in either horizontal or vertical orientation, are available in a variety of sizes, and were primarily designed for older engines, gas compressors, generators and other continuous operating devices in industrial use.

Like the other models in the series, it is guaranteed to achieve its rated 8kW-power output and, for flexibility, can typically operate in the 1kW to 8kW range, says the company. Although the output power has been increased, the new model's footprint is no larger than the 6kW version. Ward's Info No. 195

Extended family: Royce (second from right) and his wife Sarah (right) with their children (from left) Annabeth, Christabelle, Oliver and Royce's parents Henry and Jessie at home in Bukit Timah. - The Straits Times / Asia News Network
WHEN their first child was born three weeks premature, financial services director Royce Lee and his wife, Sarah May, felt ill-prepared to care for the infant.
So his parents moved in to help. That was eight years ago. The senior couple stayed on as Lee and his wife had two more children.
There are now eight people living under one roof in the family's four-bedroom condominium apartment in Bukit Timah: the couple, both 41, Christabelle, eight, Oliver, three, and Annabeth, two, as well as Lee's father Henry Lee, 73, a retired human resources officer, and mother Jessie Lim, 66, a housewife, and a maid.
Lee said: "Nothing beats having your mother to care for your children, as children are so precious."
Like the Lees, more couples are choosing to live with their parents to get help with childcare, said Alice Tan, head of research at property consultancy firm Knight Frank Singapore.
The latest data shows a slight increase in the proportion of resident households with six or more people – the largest number listed under household sizes in the Population Trends 2013 report.
Such large households inched upwards from 9.3% of all households in 2002 to 10.6% in 2012. Resident households are those headed by a Singaporean or permanent resident.
This rise comes even as the average household size dipped from 3.55 persons in 2002 to 3.53 in 2012.
Aside from having parents live in to help care for the grandchildren, the red-hot property market in recent years may have contributed to the rise in large households, property analysts say.
Some seniors may have rented out or sold their flats to cash in and moved in with their children, said Nicholas Mak, head of consultancy and research at property consultancy SLP International.
Some seniors used their rental earnings or profits from the sale of their property as retirement income or to help their children upgrade to a bigger home, he said.
For the Lees, three-generational living has worked out well so far – with a lot of give and take.
For example, he worries that his parents are spoiling his children. His father allows the children to eat on the bed and watch television at the same time, while his mother feeds the younger two instead of letting them feed themselves.
But there are advantages in living with the parents, said his wife, the youngest of seven children.
"We can go for date nights once a week and go for holidays without the children as we know there are two trusted people at home," said Lee, who helps with the accounts in her husband's business. — The Straits Times / Asia News Network

SailFin: Crucible for Code Review
This time, my work had about 800 lines changes/new lines spanning 16 files and was implementing two RFCs. All that was plain simple java code and not very complicated, but still the worry I always had about presenting the changes to the reviewers (in different geos) came up on my head. It is still my code and not their code. It should be as easy as possible for them to understand the changes and review them.
Fortunately atlassian folks helped me here. They setup Crucible 1.6 beta for SailFin and gave us a page for signing up. It solved most of my worries on sending these changes for review.
- Crucible gives a web page where you can upload your patches. (cvs -upN diff).
- Crucible converts your patch to distinct files, color coding for the diffs etc
- Comments can be added right into the code itself
Here is a copy of my changeset in crucible demo project, currently under review.
Crucible has been around for a while... And if you havent yet checked out, please do.

Journos still hoping for PNoy to take up FOI-A A +A
Sunday, July 27, 2014
ON THE 4th State of the Nation Address (Sona) today, Monday, Davao City journalists and broadcasters said they still hope that President Benigno S. Aquino III will speak about the Freedom of Information (FOI) bill although some doubt that he ever will.
Sun.Star Davao gathered the opinion of some Davao journalists and broadcasters, as well as other professionals, on their expectations from PNoy's 4th Sona today.
"I hope he will finally talk about the freedom of information bill, better if he'll announce that he would sign the FOI petition," said Vina Araneta-Pilapil, ABS-CBN Davao reporter.
Rhona Goc-ong Villariasa, senior reporter of Sun.Star Superbalita Davao, said she is also looking forward that PNoy will discuss about FOI.
"Misaad siya nga he will push through ani before his term ends, sana tumanon, unta lang. Besides ang balaudnon alang sa kaayuhan and sa mas transparent nga pang gobyerno," she said.
Joey Sy-Domingo, a media practitioner and a Communication Arts professor of University of Immaculate Conception, said "Freedom of Information will be one of his legacies. His focus has always been graft and corruption. FOI will help eliminate corruption in the bureaucracy."
On the other hand, Jef Tupas, 105.9 Balita FM news director, said: "He will spew claimed successes against corruption and transparency, his slogan, of course -- with how the government handled corruption and plunder charges against senators Revilla, Estrada, Enrile, and businesswoman Janet Napoles. But it will naturally boomerang to him, these claims, with how his administration defends DAP with its own life."
"What I am expecting are carefully strung lies and illusions. Whatever happened to FOI? The peace in Mindanao is also hanging on the brink of a deadly ravine -- with BBL yet to be forwarded to Congress. The President will be telling us fiction on Monday. Thanks to his writers," Tupas added.
Ace Morandante, photojournalist of Davao Today, echoed the same.
He said "I don't think Pnoy will talk about the FOI bill on his Sona this coming Monday. The mere fact that there is a widespread corruption in his administration, he will not talk about this bill."
Aquino assured the public that the "FOI bill will be passed into law before the end of his term."
However, he said he "cannot certify it as urgent because the Constitution requires an emergency."
The FOI bill remains stalled in the House of Representatives and has yet to have a consolidated version since its many versions are still with the technical working group (TWG).
Meanwhile, Councilor Mary Joselle Villafuerte said she remains hopeful with Aquino.
"I campaigned and voted for him. I am still hoping he succeeds deep in my heart. But he is not listening to his "boss" lately, he is wasting the overwhelming trust and faith our people gave to him in 2010," she said.
Sly Maranga, branch manager of Asia United Bank (AUB) Damosa, said she expects the president will talk more about the controversial Disbursement Acceleration Program (DAP) and what are the status of the cases filed against the senators who are not under the Liberal party.
Louie Bryan Lapat, writer CIO Tagum, said "While it's expected that President Aquino will trumpet his administration's achievements, I hope the President can also present a believable mechanism on how these will trickle down to the grassroots level, and not just benefit the few sectors of the society. I also hope he can present before members of the Congress legislative measures they can work on to make inclusive growth possible."
Faith Syting, secondary instructor of Mati National Comprehensive High School, said "I expect to hear salary increase in both public and private sectors...according to him, umaangat na tayo pero it can't be felt especially by Filipinos who are still living below poverty line."
Matias Regis, youth volunteer for Mindanaoan Youth Development Center, said "I expect the same old tune sa SONA, repetition of the term tuwid na daan which never became evident in the past four years, progress reports and surveys which are not felt by the common Pinoys. If he will be touching the subject of DAP, it will surely be on the defense of it and would probably feature projects and accomplished which are allegedly accomplished through DAP. There may also be mention of disaster management accomplishments, and I just hope a real report on Yolanda victims would surface, sana lang di fabricated."
Councilor Bernard Al-ag said expects a Sona "with full of defensive statements about the DAP issue and offensive statements about the PDAF issue."
"But I am hoping he will stop dwelling on these issues but rather focus on developmental issues like poverty and heath care," he said.

A powerful way to combat being out of control concerning our diet is to become fully aware of what certain food companies and" eateries" are doing purposely to make us overweight. I recommend the book "The end of overeating" by David.A.Kessler. isbn 978-0-141-04781-2 (penguin books- 2009). It will change the way you see all those addictive junk non -foods, and you will regain your health.Why can't we stop eating large quantities of certain foods and drinks? His book will tell you.

I had bought this over the counter product at the Walmart. I used it on my pug and she developed a sore/burn where it was applied. I washed the liquid off with dish soap. My other dog was uneffected by the Hartz, however I have washed it off and we have gone with frontline plus. I am still waiting on my pugs wound to heal before I try frontline. I have been giving her dishsoap/vinegar baths in the interm. However, I am still worried how frontline will effect her.
I wish that this was more common knowledge abd pet owners do not have to find out the hard way. Also, I am lucky that Smushy did not suffer as much as some unlucky dogs.

By Nikos Varlas/ firstname.lastname@example.com
Since his teen years at Rabotnicki Skopje, Pero Antic was considered a big talent. That's why he started his professional career at Greek club AEK when he was just 19 years old.
At 2005 he left and until 2011 he played in Serbia, Bulgaria, Russia as a member of modest teams, not part of the European elite and far away from Euroleague. In the summer of 2011 everything changed. He signed with Olympiacos, won two Euroleague titles – having personally a great Final Four in London – and last summer he made the most unexpected move. He signed with Atlanta Hawks.
His rookie season in the States proved to be a fairy tale, followed by million fans around the globe and that's why Eurohoops had to speak with him, after his milestone personal year.
As Pero clarified, he will stay next season in Atlanta and he is already preparing in order to be better. He will not play again in the national team of his country, FYROM, and he admits that in the past he made his share of mistakes. However, now he is back on the top level and he will not waste a second.
- If someone was telling you during the summer of 2011 before the Eurobasket that you will play in Eurolegue with Olympiacos, you will earn two titles in a row and after that you will play in the NBA and have a great rookie season, what your reaction would be?
"Are you crazy or something??? First of all I am very happy that during that Eurobasket I decide to connect with the best in his profession, agent Misko Raznjatovic. With his advice, support and the hard work I put in, anything can become a reality".
-When you signed to the NBA many people didn't believe that you will get minutes and have a role in Atlanta's rotation. But you proved them wrong. What were your ambitions, before you land to the States in order to start a new life and a new career there?
" You know me, I don't care about what other people are talking about… I knew that I will be a role player. I was a role player in Olympiacos the last two years, but I always give 100% on the floor.. When my chance comes, I use it to the maximum. When I came to Atlanta, I was getting ready mentally to prove that I can play on the highest level. Only that.. And I succeed on that".
- The last three years you established yourself step by step to the highest level of basketball! Why all the previous seasons you played in a lower level, not even in Euroleague? It was your mistake or just a matter of luck and bad timing? How do you explain the late explosion in your career?
"It was my fault and a mistake of the agents I had hired.. Nobody has taken time to talk with me and tell me what is the best way for me to succeed. We always went for the bigger money in the smaller teams… Plus there's my explosive character. I think this character made coaches afraid of taking me to their teams.. All that changed when I had my first talk with Misko and then with coach Duda Ivkovic".
- Your story looks like a fairytale! Only Sabonis went to the NBA at that age and played such an important role to his team! How that happened? Honestly, when you signed with the Hawks, you believed that you will achieve such a great season and be selected to play in the rookies All Star Game?
"I didn't have that in mind. I just wanted to improve everyday and use every chance I got. Coach Budenholzer and the team believed a lot in me. That made my adjustment much easier. I had just to work and use every second on the floor".
-The main differences between the NBA and European game style?
"The speed of the game and the physicality of the players"!
-What's next for you? Staying with the Hawks?
"Yes! I'm staying in Atlanta because I have one more year in my contract. I feel good in the team. City is great , people are great and I enjoy my time there".
- During last season you faced all the NBA super stars. Lebron, Durant, Carmelo and every one else. Which player do you admire the most? Which one impressed you?
"Kevin Durant, Lebron and Howard!! Durant is an extra talented scorer who is very tall and can play even the point guard position.. Lebron is a fantastic all around player! What else I can say about him? Dwight Howard is the strongest person I have ever played against! I think he sleeps in the weight room!! (Laughs).
-Who is the best teammate you ever had and which one is the worst one?
"It's tough to answer that question because they are all my friends… The worst in the last years that I remember – none.. Only one, but he is not a player".
- Did you follow the Euroleague? Give me your comment for the competition this season.
"I followed the season until my two teams were out. Red Star and Olympiacos.. After that I didn't have the same motivation.. Overall it was a good season for these two teams. Still, I was sure that Olympiacos would go to the Final Four and I would be at Milan to support them".
-Tell me your plans and decisions about the NT of your country.
"No more national team for me.. I need rest after the last season I had. Plus, I will work during the summer, following a special program the strength coach of Atlanta Hawks made for me.. It is time for the new generation to step up and lead the national team to new challenges and successes".


text: redvette77 5pts In regards to the taillights; when the 2005 Corvette debuted with fixed headlights, the automotive world went nuts. Corvette lovers the world over panicked and the mere thought that the headlights did not hide away. By 2006, everyone had forgotten about them and praised the car as it deserved. Just as people became accustom to the fixed headlights, they will become accustom to the imminent "square" taillights. And actually, the housings are square, and the taillights themselves are partially circular. Check out the newest Daytona racecar from Chevrolet to get an idea.

Inflatable kayaks are small one person boats which with minimal instruction will allow you to play the river on your own. They add action and excitement on small to moderate sized rapids and allow you to poke along down the river while chatting with others. The guides will orient you to your craft at the beginning of the trip to make sure you are comfortable and understand a forward and back paddle stroke. An oar boat will accompany the trip to handle all the gear and food so your only chore is to paddle your way down the river.
- Captain your own kayak the entire trip
- Play in Class I, II & III whitewater rapids

Gear description
The San Juan River is well known for a phenomenon known as sand waves. Often eight-feet tall, these sand waves appear to rise out of nowhere due to shifting sand on the bottom of this fast moving river. In 1938, Norman Nevills began the very first commercial enterprise offering white water rafting trips from Mexican Hat through the Grand Canyon.
This trip will start in Bluff, Utah at Sand Island and end in Mexican Hat. Highlights along the way are River House Ruin, one of the best preserved ancient pueblo dwellings in the Southwest and Comb Ridge, the 600-foot edge to the enormous Monument Up warp. The scenery here is breathtaking!
For all of the trip details about the trip, where to meet and what to bring, visit our San Juan River page.
As the Green River glides through the Tavaputs Plateau, it forms a deep gorge that rivals those found in the Grand Canyon at Bright Angel Creek (5500′). You will marvel at the primeval ruins and abandoned homesteads surrounded by a fertile landscape of cottonwoods amongst soft sand beaches. You will have the opportunity to explore this incredible canyon.
This trip will start in Green River, Utah where you will fly in a light aircraft to Sand Wash and end the trip at Swasey's beach. Highlights along the way are hikes to view the Fremont Indian ruins and petroglyphs, observe abandoned Rock Creek and McPherson Ranches, and paddle numerous beginner type rapids.
For all of the trip details about the trip, where to meet and what to bring, visit our Desolation Canyon page.
This section of the mighty Salmon River guides us through four stunning canyons Green, Cougar, Snowhole and Blue Canyons — as the surroundings change from sheer rock canyons to rolling mountains plated in golden grass. Run some exciting rapids and enjoy the plentiful white sand beaches that appear along the shores of the Salmon River. Travel to the confluence of the Snake and Salmon Rivers. We may stop at Cottonwood Creek and Cache Bar, two more important Nez Perce sites.
This trip will start in Grangeville, Idaho where you will take a thirty-minute ride to the river, we launch the trip at Hammer Creek (near Whitebird) and end the trip at Heller Bar and return to our headquarters in Grangeville, Idaho.

NPDES Program
The National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program is a congressionally mandated program under the Clean Water Act. The program is a comprehensive two-phased national program for addressing the non-agricultural sources of storm water discharges that adversely affect water quality. The program is implemented locally through the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). DEQ issues permits to applicable entities which participate in and/or oversee activities which are recognized as potential sources of pollutants. Municipal Separate Storm Sewers Systems (MS4), Industrial Activities and Construction Activities all potentially require an NPDES permit.
The City of West Linn obtained its first permit under Phase 1 of the NPDES program in 1995. The City operates under a MS4 system which means that all storm water is collected and conveyed in a storm sewer system separate from the sanitary sewer system. In 2008, the City of West Linn was approved for their next Phase 1 MS4 NPDES permit. The latest version of the NPDES permit was approved on March 16, 2012. West Linn is one of the many co-permittees that comprise of the Clackamas County Group. The other entities are: the cities of Gladstone, Milwaukie, Oregon City, Happy Valley, and Rivergrove; Clackamas County, Clackamas County Service Distric #1, and Surface Water Management Agency of Clackamas County. Together these Cities and County entities have also undertaken a Comprehensive Clackamas County NPDES MS4 Stormwater Monitoring Plan, which was updated June 30, 2013.
As part of the permit the City has developed a Surface Water Management Plan (formally called the Stormwater Management Plan), or SWMP, that outlines Best Management Practices (BMPs) that the City will implement to improve and conserve water quality, as well as, prevent harmful pollutants from contaminating stormwater runoff and entering the MS4. The nuts and bolts of this program include identification of major outfalls and estimating pollutant loadings; detecting and eliminating non-storm water discharges to the MS4; reduction of pollutants in runoff from industrial, commercial and residential areas; control storm water discharges from new development & redevelopment and regular maintenance of the public storm water collection/ treatments systems. Compliance is essentially achieved by implementing the approved Stormwater Management Plan. Each permit holder is required to report annually the procedures, tasks and best management practices achieved that benefit water quality.
Additionally, DEQ has set Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for water bodies located in the Willamette River Basin. Currently there are three parameters of concern - (high) temperature, bacteria, and mercury. A TMDL Implementation Plan is required to address these parameters. West Linn's SWMP serves as the implementation plan for bacteria and mercury and our 2014 TMDL Implementation Plan addresses temperature.

Spent a very happy couple of hours in the PS on Friday, using it as a hide to try and get some decent shots of the birds coming to our feeders. This young Greenfinch was a regular, scattering around the seeds he didn't want. We have possibly the fattest wood pigeons in the area, who patrol the gardens looking for such cast-offs.
Pretty pleased with this one, but as ever all feedback welcome.

Nominating Constructive Critique
Hi Phil. Not sure why the exif didn't come through, maybe the LR settings have changed. I was shooting in aperture priority.
I assume you mean the small blown areas on the beak and just under the throat. To be honest the light was changing so quickly as the tree moved in the wind that I decided there was little point using -EC. I have quite a ferw others where nothing is blown. I had meant to reduce the highlights a little in LR, but forgot. .
To be honest I'm just happy I managed to get it remotely in focus.
Thanks for the feedback.
