Quotes on Death
Death is not the end
Death can never be the end.
Death is the road.
Life is the traveller.
The Soul is the Guide
Death is but changing of our robes to wait
In wedding garments at the Eternal's gate.
– Sri Aurobindo
(From: "The Fear of Life and Death)
i was dead
i came alive
i was tears
i became laughter
all because of love
when it arrived
my temporal life
from then on
changed to eternal
– Rumi
– Translated Nader Khalili "I was Dead"
A stone I died and rose again a plant;
A plant I died and rose an animal;
I died an animal and was born a man.
Why should I fear? What have I lost by death?
– Rumi
As For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
My life closed twice before its close;
It yet remains to see
If Immortality unveil
A third event to me,
So huge, so hopeless to conceive,
As these that twice befell.
Parting is all we know of heaven,
And all we need of hell.
Because I could not stop for Death —
He kindly stopped for me —
The Carriage held but just Ourselves —
And Immortality.
– Emily Dickinson
Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
and things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art; to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul.
– Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.
– Winston Churchill

REVIEW A community pub with a culinary whiz at the helm
Posted: March 13, 2014|
THERE'S a sign outside the Devonshire Arms that invites the locals to exchange their home-grown fresh produce for beer. Chard, cabbage, beet root, those sort of things.
What better way could there be of securing quality veg from members of the surrounding community.
"There's a chef with imagination", I mused, as my wife and I lugged our baggage into the small bar area to check in for the night.
The chef patron of the Devonshire Arms at Beeley, Alan Hill, is also at the helm of the Devonshire Arms at Plilsley, a pair of hotels and restaurants in the chatsworth estate and it turns out he's not just got imagination, he's got a genuine fighting spirit as he's only recently returned to work after taking 12 months off to fight a battle with cancer.
Alan, from Chapel-En-le-Frith, has worked at the two establishments since 2006 and his return has already seen a brand new menu created that he says reflects his personality.
The Devonshire Arms at Beeley has 14 rooms and, when you first see the building, you wonder how this might be possible in such a compact pub and restaurant.
As beautiful as the stone-built bar and its modern restaurant extension is, it looks to be little more than a village pub from the outside.
But there's more to the Devonshire than meets the eye.
Accommodation is split across small cottages and our room, over the road was in a triple-winged cottage. On the ground floor a tight entrance hall was surrounded by three doors, including the door to 'Primrose' our room for the night.
It was beautifully decorated and very well equipped, despite its small size. Two large windows in the main room let in plenty of light and there was a large television, good tea and coffee-making facilities and a comfortable bed.
Strangely, the table had just one chair (which was probably a space-saving measure) but robes were included as were items such as a hair dryer.
A lack of WiFi was a disappointment, but we did get a nice letter apologising for its absence on the bed and the jar of sweets waiting for us on a window sill was a lovely touch.
The bar was literally across the quiet road and, by the time we'd got to know our room and got changed for dinner it had become very busy. So much so, in fact that there was nowhere to sit.
Despite being nearly an hour early for our reservation we were taken through to the restaurant which, frankly, is beautiful. It's a far more modern affair than the traditional bar area, but tastefully done with large comfy chairs and a wall of glass which looks out over the village and the stream as it dives below a culvert.
Alan's new menu is nicely varied with some dishes offering his take on pub favourites and others that smack of a more adventurous side.
For a list with relatively few options, all the bases are covered and prices are thoroughly resaonable.
Given the transition from the pretty pub-style bar area into the swanky and modern restaurant area, I wasn't sure what to expect from the food, but suffice to say the portions are beautifully presented yet generous and, after side-stepping the tempting dessert menu, we wandered back in to the bar, half-finished bottle of Montepulciano in hand, ready to slump into a chair by the fire and relax. We were absolutely stuffed.
By now the bar was busy with few seats left but there were still seats to choose from and the atmosphere was delightful. It was a perfect end to lovely evening.
Back in the room one of the two supplied DVDs caught our eye but, I for one was asleep before the opening sequences of the film had finished and my wife didn't last much longer.
The bed was lovely, the room was warm and our stomachs were full. We were never going to out-last a movie.
Breakfast the following morning was served right up to 10am, which was nice as we were in no mood to rush around.
Locally sourced produce again featured in the full-english and my wife was particularly fond of the yoghurt and the coffee.
Once we'd polished off our breakfasts we made short work of packing up the room and check-out was relaxed and straight-forward as staff were still milling around everywhere, even though the bar area was being cleaned at the time.
Within a short distance from the Devonshire in Beeley is Chatsworth House, which speaks for itself as an attraction but also Peak Village shopping centre in Rowsley and, not much further away, is Haddon Hall and the pretty market town of Bakewell.
Chatsworth, I'm told, is a short walk away from the Devonshire but even a short walk was too much to ask. We were thoroughly relaxed after our stay at the Devonshire.
And we couldn't have asked for more than that.

The Philadelphia Flyers have traded Harry Zolnierczyk to the Anaheim Ducks.
Zolnierczyk, 25, has one assist in seven games this season for the Flyers. He had three goals and three assists last season, playing in 37 games for the Flyers. Zolnierczyk will report to the Ducks American Hockey League affiliate in Norfolk, Va.
The Flyers received rugged forward Jay Rosehill in return. Rosehill, who was with Norfolk, played parts of three seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 27-year-old has two goals and three assists in 72 career games. He also has 198 penalty minutes. He will report directly to the Flyers.

If you visit the online forums of virtually any media outlet, including ours, you'll read the lie about how Barack Obama is a Muslim.
He's not. But so what if he were?
In 1928, New York Gov. Al Smith ran a groundbreaking campaign for president. He lost to Herbert Hoover, in part, because some bigots believed he would take orders from the pope instead of the American people. It wasn't until John F. Kennedy's election in 1960 that America overcame its distrust of Catholics.
Now, 80 years after Smith's candidacy, we have two groundbreaking campaigns. We either will elect the first black president or the first female vice president. Yet we are still grappling with the same fringe forces that prey on fear and fuel intolerance.
Earlier this year, a secretive group called the Clarion Fund distributed a DVD in at least 70 newspapers in key swing states, including Ohio. It also sought advertising space in our print editions to publish a full-page ad warning of a "Jihad in Ohio."
We refused to distribute the DVD or run the ad, because we reject all advertising content that is inherently racist. The only reason this group is making such outrageous claims is to reinforce the ignorant suspicion that Obama is a Muslim terrorist.
There are as many valid reasons for voting against Obama as there are arguments to support him. Two reasons that aren't valid, though, are his race and the lies about his faith.
There's a wrenching photo that ran last month in The New Yorker magazine. It shows a mother at the grave of her son, an Army specialist who died Aug. 6, 2007, in Iraq. His headstone shows he won the Bronze Star and Purple Heart. It also displays a star and crescent - the symbol of the solider's Islamic faith.
The hero's name was Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan. Is his sacrifice less worthy to you because he was a Muslim?
According to New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd, that photo stopped Colin Powell cold. The former secretary of state stared at the image for an hour. "Who could debate that this kid lying in Arlington with Christian and Jewish and nondenominational buddies was not a fine American?" he told her.
That photo and the shadow campaign against Obama were some of the reasons Powell crossed party lines to endorse the Democrat.
The not-so-subtle suggestions that Barack Obama is a terrorist should be offensive to every American who believes in tolerance and the Constitution.
The fearmongers will tell you we are engaged in a religious war for our survival. No, we're not. We are battling an enemy with a perverted world view that wraps itself in a twisted version of Islam. Osama bin Laden is no more a Muslim than I am.
The Constitution says the president must be at least 35 years old and a natural-born U.S. citizen. It does not say the president must be a Christian.
We won't elect a Muslim president in 2008. But if we do some day, that should be a cause for celebration, not fury. It means we've knocked down another barrier that never should have been erected.

Order Of Authority For Legal Next-Of-Kin(s) or Agents
"If a Loved One is still alive:"
The person themselves
A POA (Power-Of-Attorney)
A Spouse (If estranged, legally separated, or can't be located, get paperwork signed by 1 or 2, ASAP)
Adult Children
"If Loved One has passed away:"
An Executor, named in a will to carry out disposition wishes and settle estate issues.
A �POA Through Disposition�- A POA that has the authority to act on behalf of the loved one until their remains are buried, cremated, or otherwise disposed, i.e., burial at sea, body donation to science, etc. You need to request the attorney to draft this type of POA document when it�s being ordered, otherwise, you will receive a POA whose authority ends at death, which is not good at all, if their spouse or children are estranged or can't be located.
A Spouse � Common Law status applies in Common Law States only. SC is a Common Law State. Most of the time, when there is a life partner or significant other, they are usually either a POA or a named Executor, honoring the wishes of their friend and loved one. SC does not recognize same-sex marriage, and as such, partners cannot be listed as being married on a SC death certificate.
Adult Children
The person, friend or otherwise, willing to pay for disposition cost, when no one else in the family is willing to do so, and thus, forfeits all ownership of the persons remains. An earnest effort would have to be made 1st, in trying to locate any family, (agents) and in most cases notifying the coroner's office for their assistance as well.

There is also time for recreation, as well as social activities in the evenings.
Students do not have to be planning a career in business to attend. What is required is a desire to learn how business and the market economy affects our daily lives. Many OLAB graduates are now doctors, lawyers, and teachers, as well as business professionals. Since its inception, the OLAB program has been funded entirely through the generous financial support of program sponsors, including the Goodrich Trust, making OLAB cost absolutely nothing for students to attend.

By DTN's Washington Insider
Here's a quick monitor of Washington farm and trade policy issues from DTN's well-placed observer.
The Associated Press this week carried a story about continuing investigations and arrests in North Carolina, where dozens of insurance agents, claims adjusters, brokers and farmers reportedly have defrauded USDA of at least $100 million in phony crop insurance claims.
Defenders of the program point out that "there's always fraud in the crop insurance system" but that the fraud is not pervasive. However, one of the individuals involved in the scam had a different ...

I'm sitting in class at the community college in this no where town, and can't quite remember why I signed up. Tears of boredom are streaming down at least 17 (I counted) of the 30-something kids sitting in this class with nothing better to do.

PE: I find your posts fascinating and inspiring in equal measure. Please keep them coming.
My experience with reviving lapsed technology is that the problems lie not with gummed up machinery or badly-written manuals, but in the lack of a chain of practical experience. The key person is not the whizz-bang inventor or the head of the lab, but the grizzled technician who knows which lever to coax with a lump hammer and which to let well alone, which roller needs re-seating on alternate Tuesdays and which grease to use on the irreplacable gasket to keep it supple. In my mind's eye you are that technician. Hats off.

Hi all,
after a brief dalliance with weight watchers, I have decided to revert back to SW as it is what I had the most success with. I've got about 4 stone to lose so I have decided to buy a 12 week countdown tomorrow to hopefully give me the incentive to keep at it and not stop going if I've had a bad week.
Good luck all :-)

Yesterday I posted a picture of Jean Reno and Natalie Portman from The Professional, simply because I stumbled across the photo about a week or two ago and felt it fit a slight lull in content. Then a few people began ranking and discussing Portman's other films, which got me to thinking about what my favorite Portman films were and how I would rank them.
For the sake of this argument, Portman's film career started very early so this also means there were a few notable films she was in that I don't necessarily consider "Natalie Portman films". If I had considered them both, Heat and Mars Attacks! would have made this list, but her contribution to both isn't enough to warrant placement, though I tried hard to make a case for Heat.
Also, before we get to the six I chose as my favorite Portman films, I should say »

The Dog Cancer Diet: Be Cautious of Bad AdviceBy
The glycemic index is a measure of the effects of carbohydrates on blood sugar levels. High glycemic index carbs release glucose quickly into the bloodstream and glucose feeds cancer cells. Low glycemic index carbs break release glucose slowly into the bloodstream and are absorbed by other metabolic processes before cancer cells can feed on them.
The glycemic index is based on a scale of 0 – 100 with foods rated at 100 having the most rapid release of glucose into the bloodstream. Meats and vegetables have a low glycemic index, followed by grains which have a moderate to high glycemic index, followed by starches and sugars which generally have the highest glycemic indexes.
Dogs have a higher metabolic rate than humans. This means that higher glycemic foods break down even more quickly in dogs than people, significantly increasing the odds of tumors and cancer cells multiplying more quickly. So it's crucial to feed your dog a low glycemic index diet if they have cancer. Cancer cells grow and thrive on sugar. Every time you feed your dog a meal with rice or oatmeal, their blood sugar skyrockets and the cancer cells have a feeding frenzy. It's worse if you do this in every meal. The cancer cells know the sugar goodies are coming regularly. To stop the cancer cells from growing, it's essential that you stop this.
In addition, grains and rice are acid forming foods. Individuals with cancer need to reduce acid because cancer thrives in acidic environments.
This means you must avoid all rice (brown rice included), grains (oatmeal included) fruits, potatoes, and processed sugar. The only exception to this would be if your dog is dehydrated from diarrhea. In that case, it would be acceptable to add honey as described in the formula for dehydration in Dog Cancer: The Holistic Answer.
Especially beware of the questionable marketing tactics on the internet, such as those who recommend any grains in your dog's diet. Also avoid soybeans and any products derived from soy such as lecithin, as this accelerates tumor growth and cancer cells. The bottom line is that if you are making food, or adding supplements which contain these ingredients, I strongly recommend that you stop feeding this to your dog immediately to give him/her the best chance of survival from cancer. Re-check to be certain that none of the supplements you are giving your dog contain such ingredients, especially lecithin.
Dogs in the wild eat no grains and dogs with cancer generally do better on diets with no grain. The one exception to this is if your dog with cancer is losing weight. In that case, brown rice may help to add more weight.
Try to stick with foods rated 40 or below on the index. Low glycemic dog food recipes can be found in Dog Cancer: The Holistic Answer.
I invite you to watch a video where I will show you how to prepare your own home cooked food for dogs with cancer. You can get it by CLICKING HERE.
Here is a short glycemic food index chart to give you an idea of different foods and their values:

Help Needed for SCJD Assignment Deliverable

I was assigned to develop URLyBird hotel reservation system. The deliverable file I submitted named scjda-29796XXXX.jar. Below is the structure of this archive file.
code // this directory contains assignment source code
bin // this directory contains compiled classes from the code dir
dist // this directory contain the server.jar and client.jar, and
docs // this directory has the document and userguide
db-1x2.db // this is the database file
version.txt // JVM version
build.xml //
build file
runme.jar // archives all the compiled classes located in the bin dir
config // this directory has files used only by ant build file
The Deliverables Execution requirement(instructions.html) says:
When you submit your assignment, each part (client and server) must be executable using a command of this exact form:
-jar <path_and_filename> [<mode>]
I created server.jar and client.jar in the <dist> directory, and they could be run as
java -jar server.jar
java -jar client.jar
The Deliverables Packaging requirement says:
All elements of your submission must be packaged in a single JAR file. The JAR file must have the following layout and contents in its root:
1. The executable JAR containing the programs. This must be called runme.jar.
I am not exactly sure what this runme.jar is used for because the Deliverables Execution uses server.jar and client.jar which are located in the <dist> directory. I included all the compiled classes built from code directory into runme.jar, the system user could use this JAR file to launch the server and client by issuing commands(if the system user does not want to use server.jar and client.jar)
java suncertify.gui.CSRGUI [ network|alone]
java suncertify.server.CSRServerImpl
2. The original, unchanged database file that was supplied to you. Note that you must keep a copy of the original database file supplied to you, and this must be the file you submit. The marking process will expect the exact same data without any changes.
This is included in my scjda-29796XXXX.jar
3. A directory called code, containing all the source code and related parts of your project. You must create subdirectories within this to reflect your package structure and distribute your source files within those directories.
This is included in my scjda-29796XXXX.jar
4. A file called version.txt. This must contain pure ASCII (not a word processor format) indicating the exact version of JDK you used, and the host platform you worked on.
This is included in my scjda-29796XXXX.jar
5. A directory called docs.
This is included in my scjda-29796XXXX.jar
However, my submission failed. Below is the accessor comments I got from
Assessor Comments: Submission fails because it does not meet the exam specification. The requirements call for the applications to be contained in and invoked from a single file called runme.jar. This submission does not meet that requirement as defined in the "Deliverables" section of the Instructions.
I don't know what is wrong with my assignment deliverables(Maybe my understanding of the runme.jar is wrong). I would be greatly appreciated if you could help me in this regard.

Hi Charlie,
I think you interpreted the part about runme.jar differently from everybody else. But that does not mean your interpretation is wrong!
I interpreted as follows:
<my interpretation>
Your application should run with the following command:
java -jar runme.jar [start_mode_flag]
So you should have one main class (same for server and client) that invokes your client or server, depending on the argument.
To be able to start your application from a jar like that, this main class will need to be in the runme.jar's manifest.mf file.
</my interpretation>
You have a client.jar and server.jar to run the application. I cannot find anything in the specification saying that that is not allowed. I just think your accessor never thought of that (nor did I).
You'd better mail Sun and explain that your interpretation does not break any requirements: You did include a JAR containing the programs. And this JAR can be used to start the programs. You just saw that as an alternative way to start your programs, and the way you intend your programs to be started obeys the instructions.
He/She probably assumes the program has to be started as I wrote above. You'll have to explain (and defend) that this is only an interpretation, not a requirement, and that your interpretation is also valid.
The only thing against you I could find is in the following:
"The executable JAR containing the programs. This must be called runme.jar."
Is your runme.jar executable?
Your accessor will interpret this as, whether it runs if you type 'java -jar runme.jar'. I suppose you can say you interpreted it as 'java -classpath runme.jar suncertify.server.CSRServerImpl'. Unless "executable" is given a special meaning for JAR files in the Java Specification, you can interpret it any way you want.
I passed my
last week after an appeal that took several weeks.
It was a frustrating period as my arguments were first answered with a short "your accessor does not agree", but don't give up!
Good luck,
Dies (SCJD after appeal)

Flexible sigmoidoscopy is a routine outpatient procedure in which the inside of the lower large intestine (called the sigmoid colon) is examined.
Flexible sigmoidoscopy is commonly used to evaluate bowel disorders, rectal bleeding or polyps (usually benign growths). Sigmoidoscopy is also performed to screen people over age 50 for colon and rectal cancer.
During the procedure, a physician uses a sigmoidoscope (a long, flexible instrument about 1/2 inch in diameter) to view the lining of the rectum and the lower large intestine. The sigmoidoscope is inserted through the rectum and advanced to the large intestine.
You will take two enemas before leaving home for the procedure because the rectum and lower intestine must be empty so that the intestinal walls can be seen. Try to hold the enema solution for at least 5 minutes before releasing it.
A physician will explain the procedure in detail, including possible complications and side effects. The physician will also answer any questions you may have.

As you'll see in our Never Stop Learning report, the best way for teachers to get the message across..is through the stomach!Executive Chef William Dissen is teaching students about the goodness you get from locally grown foods.The owner of the Market Place Restaurant in downtown Asheville has volunteered at Hall Fletcher Elementary school for the past three years.This morning he's helping the kindergarteners make whole English muffin pizzas.Given a choice, the students say you should always pick "natures food" over candy.The students also spent some time in the school garden. They planted a few seeds and talked about the fresh herbs they were grow into before school is out for the summer.The lesson is part of the growing minds program sponsored by the Appalachian Sustainable Agriculture Project.

Loved 'Holiday' with Cary Grant & Katharine Hepburn - & 'Desk Set', while not from the thirties, is another favorite at this time of year...ReplyDelete
Carole Lombard was great with William Powell in the thirties - what was that movie where he was the butler? They had been married at one time, I believe. I also liked Jean Harlow, who I think was engaged to William Powell at the time of her death - she was doing a movie with Clark Gable at the time & was very ill - during one seen he had to pick her up in his arms & throw her down on a couch, & he was alarmed at her obvious illness. I think it was during the making of 'Saratoga', but I could be wrong...
Of course, the 'Thin Man' series is another beloved classic - & I did love the series 'Hart to Hart,' with dear heart Robert Wagner & the ever elegant Stefanie Powers:)
Love that stuff!
Oh! My! Gosh!ReplyDelete
Rhapsody - we are movie twins!
Did you ever see Jean Arthur in "The Awful Truth"? The best!
Oh Terry!ReplyDelete
I haven't seen that one - that's the 'awful truth':( But I'll catch it next time - I love TCM!
'It Happened One Night' was excellent - Oh! a bit of trivia about Myrna Loy (I think that's how you spell her name). Did you see the creepy movie, 'Midnight Lace' with Doris Day & Rex Harrison? Myrna Loy played Doris Day's aunt - she was not used to playing the matriarch, but Doris Day wasn't a diva & she was very gracious & made sure her 'aunt' wasn't made to feel uncomfortable. It's a good movie - late fifties or early sixties... not a comedy though.
Did you like any of Marlene Dietrich's movies? Or Joan Crawford? or Barbara Stanwick(sp)?
"It Hapened On Night" another classic!ReplyDelete
I liked Dietrich, not so much Crawford or Stanwick though - too cold.
I also remember "Midnight Lace" I loved that.
I think I mentioned that I'm sure my parents based their characters on Myrna Loy and her Thin Man husband?

Uranium is enriched to make fuel for power reactors, but the same process also is used to make the explosive core of atom bombs.

Fictions or realities, could they survive the touchstone of this atom of common sense?
No writer concerning Hook can claim for him an atom of respect.

It is these jets which occasionally sweep away an atom from the surface of the sphere.

An ancient term of philosophical speculation (in Leucippus, Democritus), revived 1805 by British chemist John Dalton. In late classical and medieval use also a unit of time, 22,560 to the hour.

The entire structure has an approximate diameter of 10-8 centimeter and characteristically remains undivided in chemical reactions except for limited removal, transfer, or exchange of certain electrons.
This unit regarded as a source of nuclear energy.
A part or particle considered to be an irreducible constituent of a specified system.
The irreducible, indestructible material unit postulated by ancient atomism.
An extremely small part, quantity, or amount.
The smallest unit of an element, consisting of at least one proton and (for all elements except hydrogen) one or more neutrons in a dense central nucleus, surrounded by one or more shells of electrons. In electrically neutral atoms, the number of protons equals the number of electrons. Atoms remain intact in chemical reactions except for the removal, transfer, or exchange of certain electrons. Compare compound. See also ion, isotope, orbital.

The Official
The way forward looks to have been swept clear leaving the leaders to greedily swallow up the miles while the chasing pack still wallow in the wind holes strewn across the track. The duel between Jean Le CAM and Vincent RIOU has only just begun...
Today must surely be a crushing blow to those watching the fearsome duo take to their heels as behind the brakes are well and truly on as the fleet continue to wallow in the anticyclonic magma. The group comprising Sill et Véolia, VMI and Ecover are still suffering...though forecasts indicate that they will soon be able to extract themselves from the ridge of high pressure between now and this evening. For now, they are trying to put in as much southerly as possible to make 30° of latitude. Incredibly it would seem that the leaders may get a lead of a staggering 300 miles.
Behind this group, Alex THOMSON is seemingly racing his own race on what many deem a 'wild west option'. He bravely took an enormous, but nonetheless well calculated risk 48 hours ago, right away from his playmates. Only time will tell if he was right but clearly for now he is making more ground than Sill et Véolia, VMI and Ecover who are well and truly stuck. The signs are that Thomson is likely to make up his deficit in the next 24 hours, though it is unclear whether this will be enough. It may well be that Hugo Boss holds onto his current sixth place with a 100 mile deficit on the trio.
Behind Thomson, the scenario looks far from peachy with the eight boats between Virbac-Paprec and VM Matériaux, still on the wrong side of an anticyclone which is set to expand towards the south and the east. A huge barrier is being created by this air mass without a gradient, barring the whole of the southern Atlantic. To pass it, one sole solution looks possible: gaining southerly and westerly, with an exit at around 30°S and 28°W. This doesn't look too far ahead (250 miles for Virbac-Paprec, on a heading of 195) but it is far off their theoretical course (60°) and in light winds... Between now and tomorrow evening this group is unlikely to have tracked down the anticipated west south-westerly. During this time, the two leaders may well be skipping along at over 10 knots.
This Sunday, after 3 weeks of racing, this group is highly likely to have a 1000 mile deficit on the leader. There will be three divisions in this Vendée Globe : the first comprising the top 6 in the current ranking, the second which will extend back to the 15th placed racer, Ocean Planet, and the third, with the last 5 in the ranking… This is the forecast, but the reality may well have a few surprises in store...

Anyone knows if it will be translated? Any group? Anyone?
Sorry to slow things down from the start, but can I just ask... what's the FT School Omake? Where did it appear?
This is the chinese scanlation, a special chapter where everyone from the guild goes to a school, and Erza... well take a look yourself =D.
....wow, that was brilliant. I love that everyone shows up XD And official high school parodies never fail to make me happy in my black little soul.
Here's to hoping someone puts the raw online; I'd love to have the Japanese version :9 Thanks so much for the info and for linking the Chinese scan, Thiagaum!
Happy to be useful =D.
I can't garantee anything at all, but I going to try to find someone who can translate the chinese scan into a script/summary... BUT, since is a 100% chance I will not know the person, can't say if the translation is correct or not... so please forgive me if we end finding it was wrong.
Anyway, i going to TRY TO FIND, so wish me luck. =D
Which chapter did this come after or before?
I actually don't know... but i think between 67 - 68.
Well it came out on the Dragon Magazine, not Jump...
There is a mention in c63 as well saying that Fiary Tail will make a special apperance in dragon magazine..
Smartpal, I am now 100% sure that it came together with the chapter 68.
The cover of the chapter supports that, since Dragon is a another magazine I think they ended released together... and at the 63 chapter it is said that it would come out in December so...
I looked some other forums and i saw some release dates, one of them being Fairy Tail Extra - Yankee-chan to Yankee-Kun - December 12.
Well hope this someway helped...
Actually it came together with the chapter 67 , and I have shared it with you
Check the PM XD
Thanks to ahoyazi, I present you the Fairy Tail School Omake Japanese RAW!
Spread the word! XD
You guys are brilliant. Thanks so much for the raw :D
now could someone translate it? :p
Thanks for the raw :)
And it will be so nice to have a trans. :P

|Burkholderia cenocepacia phenotypic clonal variation during a 3.5-year colonization in the lungs of a cystic fibrosis patient.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21536796 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Chronic lung infection is the major cause of morbidity and premature mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Bacteria of the Burkholderia cepacia complex are the most threatening pathogens in CF, and a better understanding of how these bacteria adapt to the CF airway environment and resist the host defense mechanisms and therapeutically administered antibiotics is crucial. To provide clues to the adaptive strategies adopted by Burkholderia cenocepacia during long-term colonization, we carried out a phenotypic assessment of 11 clonal variants obtained at the major Portuguese CF Center in Lisbon from sputa of the same CF patient during 3.5 years of colonization of the lungs, until the patient's death with cepacia syndrome. Phenotypic characterization included susceptibility assays against different classes of antimicrobials and characterization of cell motility, cell hydrophobicity and zeta potential, colony and cell morphology, fatty acid composition, growth under iron limitation/load conditions, exopolysaccharide production, and size of the biofilms formed. The results suggest the occurrence of clonal expansion during long-term colonization. For a number of the characteristics tested, no isolation time-dependent consistent alteration pattern could be identified. However, the values for antimicrobial susceptibility and swarming motility for the first B. cenocepacia isolate, thought to have initiated the infection, were consistently above those for the clonal variants obtained during the course of infection, and the opposite was found for the zeta potential. The adaptive strategy for long-term colonization, described here for the first time, involved the alteration of membrane fatty acid composition, in particular a reduction of the degree of fatty acid saturation, in the B. cenocepacia variants retrieved, along with the deterioration of pulmonary function and severe oxygen limitation.

Slight cramping.
SO I'm probably just over thinking this but this is my first baby and idk whats normal and whats not. I started kinda cramping last night and it went away. Now today its back. Its down in the lower part of my stomach. It will hurt for a couple minutes then stop and then start again. sometimes it makes my back hurt so bad I want to cry. And then it will also spread up towards my upper belly. I'm just worried and I cant lay down because I have two little rugrats that I'm babysitting. Has anyone had this happen before and nothing happen and be ok?

From Mr. Gruber's recent letter to the editor it appears he subscribes to the same misguided school of thought as Gov. Walker. If you say the same false statement over and over again it will suddenly become true.
The governor's reforms and cutting of over $1 billion in educational funding is not working. School districts across the state are suffering. In Sheboygan we have had to close Washington Elementary, eliminate 100 teaching positions, cut programs, increase class sizes, and next year some of the textbooks in my high school classroom will be as old as the students I teach. How can anyone claim these things are good for the education of our children?
Martha Laning has seen the damage that Gov. Walker's cuts have caused. She recognizes that adequately funding our children's education is the type of investment that truly moves Wisconsin forward. Martha's ability to bring people from different backgrounds together to accomplish a goal, as she did with Plymouth's Intergenerational Center, is desperately needed in Madison. We need Martha Laning as our next state senator.

Henderson pens new deal
Catalan Dragons hooker Ian Henderson has signed a new two-year contract with Super League's French club.
The Dragons have announced that the 30-year-old Scotland international will now stay at the Stade Gilbert Brutus until the end of 2015.
Henderson said: "I'm very pleased to have signed a new contract with the club. My family and I are very happy in Perpignan, we love the club, the lifestyle and the people.
"I believe the club is going in the right direction and is getting stronger each year. I have belief in the team, belief in the coaches and belief in the club management and this made my decision easier."
Henderson was born in Torquay to Scottish parents but raised in Australia and began his professional career with Sydney Roosters before joining Parramatta.
He moved to Bradford in 2005 and helped the Bulls to a Super League title. He joined the Dragons in 2011 after a spell with New Zealand Warriors.

The Fokkers clambered into our van (which my husband called a MILF Wagon until Lilo asked what a MILF was) and went to see Sweet Babou's Dad (Bob) and that side of the family on Saturday. The visit was both good, in that the grown-ups were chatty and pleasant and all the little cousins played together with joyful joy, and bad, in that we found out Sweet Babou's step mother (Agnes) has breast cancer. They didn't want to tell us before Christmas because they didn't want to dampen anyone's holiday. Agnes is the biological mother of Sweet Babou's paternal half siblings (Agnes left Bob for another guy, Bob then married Babou's mom and they had Babou, then they got divorced and when Babou was in high school Bob and Agnes remarried. The family tree looks like a Celtic knot, y'all.) and Sweet Babou's father loves her dearly, so we are worried both for her and for the mutual loved ones who are suffering from fear and sadness.
Happily her prognosis is excellent. They caught it early, and the doctors are very confident it will be okay. Agnes has had breast cancer before, and she has been in remission for 27 years. Here's hoping for another 27 years of remission.
After the visit we went (as had been previously scheduled) to meet friends at Ikea where we planned to get the girls bunk beds. It was great to see our friends, who are fabulous and make all the correct noises about how cute our Fokkerlings are. They helped us find the right beds, retrieve the beds and the mattresses for them from the huge Ikea shelves, and then the guy friends helped Sweet Babou strap the flat-packed beds on top of the MILF Wagon while the gal friends (who can field strip engines and rebuild a house with toothpicks if needs be, BTW) sat inside the warm store watching the girls play like the delicate flowers we are. Once there had been much hugging and promises of future get togethers, Sweet Babou and I strapped the kids into their rocket-seats and headed off down the highway for the 2.5 hour trip back to Bloomington.
Shortly after we got onto the highway we discovered the unpleasant fact that the straps holding the beds on our van roof made a LOUD buzzing noise from the wind vibration. It sounded like we were inside a bee that was having rough sex with a group of fellow bees while in the middle of a hive, that's how buzzy it was. We resigned ourselves to a couple of hours of BBBBBZZZZZZZZZ and continued to poke on down the slow lane at exactly the speed limit as to pose no hazards to other people sharing the interstate that night. Thus we were conveniently positioned to exit the highway at the next off-ramp when the BBBBBZZZZ of the straps suddenly changed to TWANG and then made only SILENCE.
There is nothing like having 122 lbs of flat-packed lumber unsecured on the roof of your van while you are going 70 miles an hour down the interstate at 10:00 PM at night with cars behind you full of people who probably wouldn't survive the impact of the beds hitting their vehicle to give you a cozy little shot of adrenaline.
Sweet Babou pulled posthaste onto the shoulder of the next off-ramp so we could get out and assess what had happened. Now, I hate pulling onto a shoulder like that. All it takes is some idiot to not be paying attention and clip you to kill you deader than a doornail. However, needs must.
Fortunately only one of the straps had broken, so the situation wasn't dire. We used the extra straps we had to secure the box better and eased up the off-ramp and into the lighted parking lot of a quick-stop gas station. There we took the time to cogitate about the situation. It soon became obvious that the only real solution was to unload the van, scoot the middle seats forward, fold down the back half of the rear seating beside Lilo's booster, and use physics and perhaps a wormhole to put the box inside the van. It was 20 degrees outside. It was going to be hella fun.
We left the van on so the kids had a DVD to watch and the heater at least running, covered the girls with our coats for extra warmth (since the doors were wide open) and started hauling packages outta the van. Honestly, we didn't even feel cold because we were working up a sweat. It felt very hardy and pioneering. Working together we got the box down from the roof (Sweet Babou is lucky he married a strapping big girl like me and not wispy fey-creature) and then I used the bumper as a fulcrum to lift part of the beds while Babou pulled from inside the van.
Voila! It worked!
We then put all the other stuff back in the van around and on the flat-packed beds, double checked that the kids car seats were in prime locations of ultimate security, and then set off back home. We finally made it at 1:00 AM, where we left almost everything but the kids in the van while we staggered inside and got everyone 9including us) into jammies and bed. The Land of Nod has never received happier visitors.
Yesterday, Sweet Babou put the bunk beds together and the girls had much rejoicing, especially when blankets were used to create a "fort" out of the lower bunk. Good times. So all's well that ends well.
I'm sure my eye will stop twitching soon, too.

Oh, so that's what friends are for.
Victoria Beckham proved just how, well, supportive she can be of her besties (and how game she continues to be for saucy candid photo ops) when pal Eva Longoria posted a pic on her WhoSay page of David Beckham's better half getting a litle handsy.
So just what was going on?
MORE: Haute Harper! Victoria names new handbag after her daughter
Simply this: when a fashionista this fierce is in the vicinity, wardrobe malfunctions don't have a chance.
"My beautiful girl @victoriabeckham supporting me @vanityfair," Longoria cheekily tweeted last night.
The pals, along with Kate Beckinsale, Venus and Serena Williams and more, turned out in full force last night at the Vanity Fair cosponsored launch of the Eva Longoria Foundation at Beso in Hollywood.
Beckham also tweeted and posted pics throughout the night, albeit slightly less racy versions than her Desperate Housewives pal.
In addition to announcing the "night out with the girls" Victoria described her formfitting blue and black dress as her "favorite from AW12."
Which is nice inside info to know and all, but still, we've got to award this round of most revealing tweet to Eva. Um, hands down.

Apple seeds fourth beta of 10.8.4 to developers
updated 01:48 am EDT, Wed April 24, 2013
No new changes or issues noted, no timeframe available
Just six days after the previous release, Apple on Tuesday has released a new version of the forthcoming 10.8.4 update to developers. The new build, 12E36, lists no known changes or issues, and asks developers again to focus on Wi-Fi, Safari and graphics drivers. It is known that the new build includes support for the emerging 802.11ac standard, suggesting possible new model updates that will also support the protocols. The 10.8.4 release is also said to improve battery life somewhat, and issues with Wi-Fi and waking from sleep.
The 802.11ac protocol is a successor to the existing 802.11n standard, though the former had not yet been ratified even though the standard is now complete (a similar situation occurred with 802.11n, with products available years before the standard was finally ratified). Once widespread, 802.11ac should result in faster network speeds and greater range using the 5GHz band currently employed by 802.11n. No timeframe for a final release of 10.8.4 has been given.

It may soon get easier for the city to fire department heads in Lebanon.
Councilors will likely soon vote on a measure that could eventually allow either the mayor or the majority of council to terminate department heads.
Currently, the mayor and at least four councilors must approve terminating any department heads. However, if the change proposed initially by Councilor Kathy Warmath takes effect, the mayor could terminate a department head without council approval or vice versa.
Mayor Philip Craighead said the proposed procedure differs from most other municipalities.
"The vast majority, the hiring and firing is done mostly by the mayor or city manager or, really, through personnel," said Craighead.
He cited potential liability or political issues with involving the city council with the process.
"It could get political and they could say, 'We don't want you; we want to put somebody else in,'" said Craighead. "Not of this council, but ones in the future…You never know."
For the change to happen, council must vote to seek a private act in the state legislature to change the city's charter.
Council already approved the measure once and sent a request to the state, but the request was kicked back.
"I think there might've been a conflict with it as the state looked at it," said Mayor Philip Craighead.
The city has revised the wording and plans to resubmit it.
"We're just fixing it up, I think, so that we can send it back down to Nashville to see if we can get it through the process this year or not," said Craighead.
The measure would also update the city's charter to define the existing department head positions, which eliminates a Commissioner of Public Safety and adds a Director of Public Safety position.

What is Darkness but an empty feeling inside your shell? What is Happiness if it is only a brief adrenaline that leaves you yearning for more, like an illusive drugs. You only feel pain when you have a heart.
You walk among the crowd as a Shadow.
You view the world as a Lonely place.
You see the sky as gray and colorless.
You woke up in this world, existing as a
The world is empty, and you are alone.
But shouts of laughters, and cries of sorrow
Still echoing inside your head.
This imaginary world...
The playground was bare. No one there.
But the swings still swing,
In forgotten memories
The slides still slide, laughter and cries
Echoing in this imaginary world...
The world is cold, dark, and gray
Just like your heart, memories still stay
Laughters and happiness, sorrows and pain
If only you can live your life
Once again....
In this imaginary world.
