Ricon Corp.'s K and S Series wheelchair lifts feature an interlocked restraint belt, as well as barriers to prevent excessive rolling on the platform. The company offers training for operators and technicians.
Students who have suffered a traumatic brain injury or near drowning will require close physical safeguards and assistance in a bus evacuation. The commotion could set off a seizure.
Students with osteogenesis imperfecta have bones that break easily. In spite of the urgency of a school bus evacuation, these passengers must be moved slowly and carefully.
This condition is a birth defect that involves incomplete development of the spinal cord, often resulting in paralysis of a student's lower extremities. Many with spina bifida will be totally dependent on the bus staff, so a well thought out evacuation plan is critical. Part 4 of this series also covers spinal cord injuries.
Part 3 of this series focuses on spinal muscular atrophy, which is a group of inherited diseases that cause progressive muscle degeneration and weakness. Knowing how to carry passengers with this condition on an evacuation device and including a nurse in training drills will help to ensure their safety.
Part 2 of this series focuses on Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which causes deterioration of muscle tissue in boys. Knowing how to lift these passengers properly is critical for a safe emergency exit from the bus.

Saturday morning in Hartford could not have been more beautiful. The air was crisp and cool. The sun was just starting to rise. It was perfect weather for a marathon. With an 8:00 start, I had gotten got plenty of sleep. Things were looking really good. The Hartford Marathon staff was totally dialed in. There was an orange jacket everywhere I looked, happily telling me where to check my bag, how to get to the start and wishing me good luck. Thanks to them, my stress level was zilch. There were tons of port-o-pottys and there were no lines. All of it was almost too good to be true. And it was awesome. As I waited at the start, I was thinking two things: first - don't go out too fast. And second - I wonder what this song is that's playing over the loud speaker and whether I could ask this person next to me to Shazam it with their iPhone. (I did not do this, but I really wanted to). The horn blew and right from the get-go, I tucked in with the 3:15 pace group, something I'd done at my last marathon that had worked really well for me. We did some quirky zigging, and zagging and a bit of surging to get our group into a secure place which made me a little nervous, but after a couple miles we finally settled in. And then, at mile 3, my pacer jetted off to the side to go to the bathroom. Hmmm. Okay. I guess I will just plow ahead. I jumped in with a group of 4 men that had been running with the same pacer. After a couple more miles I noticed we were cruising at a 7:15 pace. What to do? My thoughts were all over the map:---> Is this too fast? Can I hold this? Probably not. But I feel SO good. Maybe I can hang on. Maybe this time is different? Maybe?? And then I had to pee. I could not stop thinking about it. In all my marathons, I have never had to duck out to use the bathroom. I did not want to break my stride and lose my group, but with each water stop I worried that it would get worse, so I decided it had to be done. I made it quick and tried to jump right back in, but I had lost my crew and my groove. First bleep on the radar. I settled back in and for the next ten miles or so, I maintained a pretty solid rhythm. I was running steady 7:20-7:25 miles and I was feeling strong. And then, well, then I wasn't. At mile 18 my mind started to mess with me. I was beginning to get tired and the message I kept hearing was "this is so damn hard, Rebecca, maybe you should just stop and take a break." My brain was sending the same message to my legs and they were happy to oblige. I was so pissed off; willing myself to block out these thoughts and forge on. But with each mile it was getting harder to fight. I started to stop at the water stations and take several gulps of gatorade, hoping the fuel would trick (or drown out) my brain. No such luck. By mile 22, I had slowed to a shuffle, my stomach had too much liquid in it and the cramps were in full force. It was touch and go. And it wasn't pretty. Finally, I made it to mile 25. Hallelujah. I almost cried I was so happy to see that number. My time at this point was 3:10. I poured my heart and soul into the final 1.2 miles to cross the line in 3:21:27.
Was I was pleased with my time? Sure. But I was really disappointed with how I felt through those last 8 miles. It was not a joyful race. In the end, I was mad at myself, mad at my legs, mad at my obsession with running, just mad. This was not the outcome I had been hoping for. But, all that said, it could have been worse. A lot worse. As my coach told me later that evening, "The marathon is a tough animal. Rarely does it 100% reflect your capabilities, but we keep going at it to try to get one of those near perfect runs." I train for these monsters for four months of the year. I've done it seven times now. I work my tail off and push myself beyond my comfort zone on a regular basis. And then...then, I cross my fingers and hope for the best. Sometimes it all comes together. Sometimes it doesn't. And yet, I still do it. There is something about the challenge that is appealing to me. Even more so, when things don't go as planned. As my husband said when I was talking through it with him post-race, "That's the thing, Rebecca. When you PR, you're always going to wonder whether you could have gone a little faster or pushed a little harder. When you crash and burn, you wonder what went wrong and how you can change it. And there will always be a next time. You know it and I know it. He's right. I do know it. Later that night, I called my mom to give her the low down. She listened quietly as I gave her the play by play. When I was done she said, "well, I'm sorry it didn't go as well as you'd hoped. But, they can't all be perfect. And you're life is still pretty darn good." I won't lie and say I wasn't a little annoyed by her response. But, it's only because I knew she was right. Life does go on and I'm still happy, healthy and lucky as hell. And running will always have a lot to do with this.
+1 Peg
Way to get it done, sorry it didn't go as well as you wanted. I do kinda of understand that after my Half.
Rosie is so pure. I bet this one took way more effort than your PR. Congrats on Marathon #7. 30 years from now you'll remember the time you bonked a 3:21
Congratulations. Its never easy. (thats one of the reasons I only run half marathons) You are lucky to have such a supportive family.
I know you are not happy with it, but from here its a 3:21 marathon which is pretty damn good. Sending you a well deserved congratulations.
Yup. Marathons are so hard. So much goes into that one day and when it doesn't go as planned it's a pretty big bummer. (Can you tell I just ran one on Sunday that didn't go quite as planned?? Stupid 27 mph wind!)
Your time is really great considering the struggles you had. At the end of the day we all know your mom is right. We are blessed to be able to run and have great families.
Ohhhhh!!! and the medal is awesome!
Rosie did get her ice cream?
Great job on the race and hanging on when it got tough. I've had a couple of marathons blow up at about 17 or 18 miles and it is not fun at all. You're absolutely right about the thing that keeps us coming back -- can we do better next time.
Thanks to all of you for your comments and support. Nice to know we have all been in the same boat or simply just "get it". Onward and upward!
Oh, and Rosie did get her ice cream. Grace then asked me for a piggy back ride. That was funny.
Your coach, your husband and your Mom summed it up pretty well. Looks like a pretty good race to me! And your life is pretty darn good! Congrats!
Yes, yes and yes!! THANKS.
Wow....disappointed with a 3:21:xx.....I wish
You have a great support crew around you. Get some rest and enjoy the family.
Run on everyone.....................Steve
Great words of encouragement from your husband and your mom. There will be a next time and all we can hope for is near perfect!
Congratulations on your race. Like everyone else has said, I am sorry too it didn't go as planned for you. But I understand your goals are your goals. No matter what anyone says, it stings. And yes there is always a next time! Keep the faith!

SILVER CITY — The town of Silver City Community Development's Office of Sustainability plans an open house for its new location on Pope Street and a tour of the solar array being built for the wastewater treatment plant on Tuesday.
The Office of Sustainability's new headquarters is a freshly renovated former gas station at 1106 N. Pope St. across from the Hidalgo Medical Services MED Square Clinic. The Office of Sustainability's mission is to promote "community resiliency" for the town of Silver City. They focus on projects like solar energy, recycling, and energy and water conservation to meet their goals.
After the open house, there will be a bus to take anyone interested to the new solar array being built for the wastewater treatment plant. Construction on the 6 acre solar array began in January.
Through a unique, legislated financial arrangement called a "Power Purchase Agreement," the town is expected to save an estimated $3 million to $4 million over the next 20 years by using the power from the solar array to power the plant's pump motors.
According to Nick Sussillo, director of Silver City's Office of Sustainability, the town spends around $250,000 powering the treatment plant. With the new solar power project, they hope to decrease that number by quite a lot. Instead of paying PNM 10.5 cents per kilowatt hour — a price that climbs each year — like they do now, Silver City will purchase the energy from Affordable Electric at 6.
The open house will be held from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, at which time a bus is scheduled to depart for the treatment center. A brief ceremony and tour will be held from 2 to 2:45 p.m. The bus will then return everyone to the Office of Sustainability. For more information, call Terry Timme at 575-519-8987.
Benjamin Fisher can be reached at (575) 538-5893 ext. 5803.

What jetaudio 7 needs to becomes the best player out, from a developers perspective
*i posted this on the jetaudio 7 topic in the general forum but i have a feeling no one really looks at that one so here it is again*
Hey guys,
Previously i swore by winamp untill i got a 6.1 system for my computer and was no longer satisfied with winamps multi chanel output capabilites. Then i found jetaudio and i love it, its the best for music by far.
I am a software/game devenloper, and since i really like jetaudio i decided to give my input into jetaudio 7. This is pretty much all that you need to improve;
First of all, what you dont need to change, the core coding, your player runs perfectly, winamp is laggy and buggy and i was getting tired of it, jetaudio loads fast, runs smooth, doesnt lag on restore, doesnt sap cpu cycles like crazy, and it sounds great so leave the core coding alone, dont add any more useless features that 3 people in the world might be interested in and will only lag the player down.
Your greatest focus should be on imprving the player for music playback, video and such doesnt really matter, jetaudio does all it needs to for that, not many people have huge video collections that they watch on the computer anyays, but there are tons with 1000+ songs that want a great player.
What makes jetaudio not as popular as winamp? mainly its the playlist,
1. the playlist should be able to dock with the player, it should be able to move and hide with the player.
2. titeles should be displayed artist - title not artist / title, it looks akward and puts people off, also the song time should be displayed down the right hand side.
3. the find function should be more like winamps, it should bring up a query window with all your play list traks and narrow them down the more you type into the query field.
Next some full scree visualizations would be nice, but their not that big of a deal.
I love how you have more controll over your surround and multiple chanel output, take it a step higher and imrpove that even more, give more control over front and rear volumes, the wide rear option is nice but doesnt boost the rear speakers enough, perhaps make it possible to define just how much you want them amplified.
A nice wide range multi band equalizer would be really nice too.
Dont set the player to do the fade in and out when your skiping songs by default, it makes it take too long and annoying to skip tracks and really gives a poor first impression.
Make it a little bit more skin friendly, the default skin is nice but a little bulky, you need something captivating and catching, dont make it plain because eyecandy sells, people get bored with things that look plain really quick.
Your random is very un-random, it frequantly goes to the same songs and follows the same patterns each time, i know on a computer there is no such thing as a true random, but you could try giving it a diferent seed each time you launch the player, could have an option where it marks the already played songs and wont revisit them in a single session as well.
Lastly, dont limit the free version so much, if you make the free version a little more functional it will attract alot more people, dont totaly cut out the functionality just limit its speed/feature set. If you guys implement these changes, jetaudio could quite easly becomes #1 world wide, but you have to make the free version better.
Well thats about all i can think off of the top of my head, i hope some of that help, great player guys, hoping version 7 will keep up with the quality.
Best Regards

Re: What jetaudio 7 needs to becomes the best player out, from a developers perspecti
Yea it seems they dont pay much attention to the forums from what ive read through the other people trying to give input into the new player, but they really aught too, their player has amazing potential but its not well known, not very popular and not very saught after, even though its superior to winamp in almost every way, to me this tells me they need to pay more attention to the fans.
You know what they say, pride always comes before the fall.

"outside of USA" does not mean outsourcing.
COWON is a Korean company and COWON America is their American section.
jetAudio is developed in original COWON (i.e. in Korea).
while i have been told that there is ONE jetAudio developer who reads the forums (for bugs, suggestiongs etc)...unfortunately, he is not good in English and thus, replies very rarely. tough luck.

Sort of.
A federal judge in Pittsburgh has entered a default judgment against the Akron, Ohio-based utility because FirstEnergy didn't respond to the lawsuit in time. The lawsuit was filed Aug. 28 and the company had 21 days to respond after it received the court papers, which online records show occurred by certified mail on Sept. 4.
But FirstEnergy spokeswoman Jennifer Young says the company wasn't properly served with papers and plans to ask a federal court judge to reopen the lawsuit.
The plaintiffs claim they and 1,000 other nearby residents have been harmed by pollution from the Hatfield's Ferry plant in Masontown.
FirstEnergy closed the plant earlier this month saying tightening pollution regulations make it cost-prohibitive.

'Bond 24' Brings Back 'Skyfall' Scribes Neal Purvis and Robert Wade
Posted on Friday, June 27th, 2014 by Angie Han
The trio that wrote Skyfall will be reuniting for its sequel after all. As of 2012, John Logan was set to pen the script all by himself, without the help of Neal Purvis and John Wade. But now, following some "polite turmoil" behind the scenes of Bond 24, Purvis and Wade are returning to give the script some "punch."
Of course, they're going to need some time to polish that script and that means production won't begin this fall as originally planned. Instead, it'll get underway in December. Hit the jump for all the latest details on the Bond 24.

|Cutaneous Inguinal Scar Endosalpingiosis and Endometriosis: Case Report With Review of Literature.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23249836 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|ABSTRACT:: Endosalpingiosis and endometriosis represent ectopic growth of the fallopian tube epithelium and endometrial glands and stroma, respectively. Cutaneous endometriosis is a well-known entity, most often presented on scars after gynecological procedures. Cutaneous endosalpingiosis, however, appears to be a rare condition, with only 5 cases described in medical literature thus far. The authors report an unusual case of a woman with combined inguinal endosalpingiosis and endometriosis occurring in the cutaneous scar at the site of previously placed surgical drain, 10 years after myomectomy had been performed. The authors also provide an extensive review of medical literature in English regarding cutaneous endosalpingiosis and endometriosis and discuss their clinical, histopathological, and immunohistochemical features.

Jordan Gregory (left) and Marivi Acuna weigh a bag of crawfish at DeBarge's Crawfish in Alexandria on Tuesday. Crawfish have been scarce the past couple of months because of frigid weather, but an ample supply is expected for Mardi Gras weekend.

Super Bowl weekend was a bust for the crawfish business. Mardi Gras should be better.
The cold weather that blasted the area in January and early February and played havoc with crawfish harvesting has passed. Warmer temperatures are here, just in time for Mardi Gras weekend.
"With this warm weather, there should be an ample supply of crawfish," said Jordan Gregory with DeBarge's Crawfish in Alexandria. "Crawfish are very weather-dependent. The cold weather hit everybody pretty hard. As long as the weather stays warm, there shouldn't be problems." ...

Little Dutch Have Worked Hard on Speed
Posted By Sports On August 16, 2013 @ 6:00 am In Today's Local Sports | Comments Disabled
One big strength Pella's football team will be bringing to the field this season in their quickness. Coach Jay McKinstrey has seen his returners work hard in offseason workouts developing their speed, regardless if they were born with it or not. McKinstrey gives credit to Coach Preston West and the work he has done in the gym with the team. The Little Dutch coach tells KNIA/KRLS Sports that Coach West has done a good job of getting the guys to move, which he believes has helped prevent injuries.

56k | High-Speed - Watch more of Jackelyn Barnard's interview with Tiffany
By Jackelyn Barnard
First Coast News
JACKSONVILLE, FL -- She sits on the sofa, in her sister's home, just smiling and giggling.
It's clear she is a young teenager but behind the smile, is a troubled teen.
Normally at First Coast News, our policy is not to identify young victims of sex crimes, but Tiffany Gomez wanted to talk. She wanted to share her story and maybe help someone else.
Tiffany says it all started last summer. She was just looking for a father figure. She says she found one in her neighbor, 46-year-old Eric Longstreth.
She says, she started to go over to his house everyday. The relationship then turned into something else. It's something she says she doesn't regret right now but knows she will in the future.
"Age is just a number. It just matters how much you love a person," said Tiffany.
At 14, Tiffany says she is not in love but she does have feelings for Longstreth.
"I miss him. I miss him a whole lot. I know it looks bad but I do miss him a lot."
She says she ran away with him last November, for three months, because she was afraid of being punished for skipping school.
Police say it was during that time, Longstreth used her in a prostitution ring.
When asked, did he ever tell you that he loved you? She responded, "Yeah." Do you think Eric used you? "In a way, not really." But in a way you do? "No, not really."
At times during our two hour interview, it was clear Tiffany was nervous. She would ask us to skip questions. Three times she asked us if she could stop and go have a cigarette.
Each time she would come back from her break ready to answer another question.
Were you ever romantic with him? Intimate? "No, not at the house." But outside of the house? "After I ran away that's when the romantic started happening." Did you want it to happen? "In a way, not really, but in a way I guess."
There were several times Tiffany would go back and forth over what she says she wanted.
Her mother says there is a good reason for that. Beverly Todd believes her daughter is not telling the whole story in order to protect Longstreth. "She doesn't want to see him go to prison."
Tiffany says during the three months she ran away from home, she and Longstreth traveled across Florida. They went to New Orleans, to Texas and then back to Florida. She says they settled in Kissimmee.
Tiffany says she knew about Longstreth's escort service.
"He made business cards for me to be funny." What was on the card? "My little phone number. My own cell number and a picture of me with the Hummer," said Tiffany.
According to Tiffany, the Hummer is the car they traveled in.
While in Kissimmee she says she met a man by the name of Bryan Perry. "Perry took pictures of me. It's kinda scary saying his name. He wanted to do it for fun for the camera. He wanted to take them. He did not force me or anything. I didn't want to start an argument because he (Perry) was drunk. It was lingerie." How many outfits were you in? "Four. (He) told me how to pose."
Things did not stop with the pictures. Tiffany admits she had sex a number of times with Longstreth. She says she wanted to do it.
Her mother says that's not true and Tiffany is still protecting Longstreth.
After three months on the run, police caught up with Perry and Longstreth at a hotel in Kissimmee.
It was a sting. Tiffany says the call was for a bachelor party. Tiffany says she was in the hotel room dancing for the undercover cops.
Again, she says Longstreth never forced her. She said she wanted to do it because she knew they needed the money.
"He didn't make me do it. It was what I wanted to do not what he wanted me to do." And that was to do what? "Dance for the first time." All you did was dance? "Yes." No sex? "No."
Tiffany says that was the first and last time she did or will do anything like that.
Police arrested Perry and Longstreth.
Her mother says even though she has her daughter back she has one fear. "My biggest fear is he doesn't go to jail and gets out. It's like it's gonna start all over again."
Tiffany's mother believes her daughter has been brainwashed. Todd is now trying to put the pieces of her family back together again.
Tiffany says she has no regrets when asked if she's missed out on her childhood innocence. She simply replied, "No."

Memorial Day is upon us again and one more time, as always, we honor those who have given their lives to keep our country free. Free covers a wide area, not only our country but the oppressed countries throughout the world. History tells us the United States of America is based on the principle of individual rights and some people will challenge some of those parts. No matter what, lives have been sacrificed and families are affected. Today we honor those who sacrificed their lives to keep us free.
The Hanover Area Memorial Day event has a long history behind it. This event started a long time ago. When? I do not know, however I do know the Allied Veterans Council of Hanover took over this event beginning in January 1946 and Jack Krebbs took the job of parade marshal from the start.
The amount of spectators along the parade line has always been a large number. The March with Pride group, local veterans marching in formation honoring their fallen comrades, stepping out smartly.
This event takes planning and cooperation throughout the community and I want to thank all of you that make this memorial event happen.
It would be nice if the community showed their support and be a spectator. If for some strange reason it should rain, services will be held in the American Legion Hall at 9 a.m. for services set for the cemetery.

Finally An Awesome Game!!!
This was a true winner from Big Fish. The graphics are beautiful and rich. The story line is very interesting, and the game is very long including the bonus game. It isn't too hard, and it isn't too easy. It is just right. I wish all games were like the quality of this game. The last game I played of this calibur was the Nut Cracker (I can't remember the exact name, but it has that in the title). That was a year or so ago. I realize not every game can be this good, but they should all be similar to this quality.
The game has a lot of puzzles, which are not super hard, but fun, and it has 2 types of HO. One is the traditional, and the other you have to match the outline of the shapes and as you find one piece, you use that piece to get another. There wasn't a lot of running back and forth like in some games. It has creatures that you rescue, and you really want to rescue them, because they are the babies of the creatures in question. There is a very bad guy that you have to defeat in order to stop him from bringing the really bad guy back to life. Everything is in HD. The only problem I had was that some of the cut scenes played poorly. There was something wrong with the frame rate; at least on my iPad 3.
I highly recommend this game. I don't write reivews very often, but this game warranted it. Keep these coming, and I can't wait to play the next one in this series.
League of Light: Dark Omen reviewed by Lynxminx
The sequel can't come out fast enough! Well done, BigFish! All the elements of an amazing game. Very lengthy, with a long bonus chapter as well! OMG, that chapter was gorgeous! Great graphics, fantastic zoom capability, strategy guide, hint system that didn't ruin it by telling you what to do, a journal. Also navigational aids, as well as a great teleport map with marked objectives. Believe me, there is so much to do you need that map! The inventory was labeled too! You are really starting to spoil us and we love you for that reason!
The HO scenes were great, not just lists but you also had to find one object to get to another, and so on and so forth! Also there were puzzles built into some of the HO scenes! There were so many mini-games and puzzles that you could never be bored!
The game had a smooth flow. There was no loading time between scenes! That is so obnoxious when you have to wait for every scene to load!
The only downside was that there were some tiny glitches; however you can play through. The game doesn't crash or kick you out. I could have taken off a star but I didn't because you get an extra star for giving us this great game with the added bonus of NO RATS!!!
This game was a great price and worth every penny. I am going to use some of the wallpaper because it was exquisite! Please, more like this, maybe two per week?
BTW, this should put me in the top 10 reviews with Snooper! He/she reviews the way I do!
I used to play a lot of these games but got sick of glitchy and/or overpriced ones, so stopped. Saw the sale and good, detailed reviews and tried this one. Now I remember how much fun these games can be. You are able to move through the game smoothly, logically, without hints, i.e. not too easy, not impossible. Even the HO scenes are interesting and with a new twist. Just really, really good. Even the bonus play was really good (as opposed to just a throw together piece of junk). But as good as this was, and I honestly don't think I've ever enjoyed one more, $7.00 US is just too much for a one time game. If BF put out more games of this quality (dev was Mariaglorum), I'd buy them more often, but only on sale, they're pretty greedy at $5.00 considering they're just profiting off of other people's work (for the most part)

I know about keeping everything showing by disableing the autohide, but I like the fact that the buttons disapper. If you could make another funtions that would be great.
I'll add this on my todo...
Another request or 2:
- have some configurable (or not) sound when pressing a button. This will greatly enhance the feeling of responsiveness. Now, on my slow system in the car, it sometimes seems as if I haven't pushed a button, so I push it again :(
- have the same fade effect as in pause when skipping to the next song, because those details make it a very professional and smooth system.
unsure if this has been requested / asked before.. Would it be possible to change the 'current folder' text to display just the current folder, not the whole directory list from the fav's folder.. ie..
singles/eminem/ to just 'eminem' for example.
would it be possible to hide the image(.jpg) files, when I browse to a dir/folder I see my.jpg files that I use for the album art. I would just like to have my mp3 showing
a new option allowing you to choose extension to show is on the way ;)
thankyou sir :)
two more things, how would i go about changing the font so that I wont get scrolling titles when im browsing by icons in filelist mode - I would like to have it just show the whole album name
Im testing with the light skin, when i have a long named song playing and go back to the main menu, the song name doesnt stroll just gets cut off
can these both be changed in the skin editor?
in NM you can set the scrooling ON/OFF, in NSW you can change each fonts individually..
But maybe it's a bug (another one...)

I really like the animation DE_DUST2 by WX, and wanted to do something like it. So I am working on a BLOPS 2 animation with the different kind of people I observe online. It's actually more of a thing of every online FPS, but I figured since BLOPS 2 is the newest thing, might as well do that? I don't have experience with it, but I can safely assume it's the same as all the others.

Cecilia Samartin
Sebastian peered into the shadows lurking behind the houses, the trees, and around every corner he passed. He sensed the encroaching darkness alive with mystery and a million little fears that could disperse in one brilliant flash of understanding. Although he was sometimes afraid of the dark, at that moment he was at peace with it. It was a lonely ghost that reminded him he had danced with death once, and that perhaps he would do so again.
He thought of the black haired old lady from the hospital. She existed only in the shadows now, but he could feel her near him at times, watching him, guiding him when he couldn't be sure where he was going. Perhaps he would show his grandmother the picture he'd drawn so that she could see for herself the ashen face, and the bizarre black hair that crowned it. Perhaps he would tell her about the strange conversation they'd had at the hospital. He peered more intently into the darkness, and quickened his pace.
Standing upon his grandmother's porch minutes later, he instantly knew that the strange turn she'd taken had deepened and twisted around their world like a thick and thorny vine, choking out what little normalcy remained. He noted the intense glow of candlelight through the window, and a myriad of boxes and packing paper strewn all over the porch, making it look like she'd either been shopping or was preparing to move. He sniffed the air and realized the delicious smell he'd detected by the mailbox was stronger than ever. He entered the house to find that most of the floor was covered with additional boxes and paper. The rocking chair, where Lola had previously spent most of her time, was overflowing with the same, and on almost every flat surface candles of every size were burning brightly. Squat orange candles on the coffee table, and thick white pillar candles on the window sills. On the kitchen table red tapered candles were aflame, and the melted wax dripping down the stems looked like thick tears of blood.
Sebastian felt the fragrant heat all around and permeating through him. He'd never seen so many candles burning at once. The light they created was alive, and it moved through the space like a mystical breeze, a spirit of warmth.
Lola was in the kitchen hunched over a large boiling pot, stirring frantically and muttering to herself. Clouds of steam wafted up past her face toward the ceiling, and with her red hair sticking out, she looked like a witch at her cauldron, concocting a poisonous brew. She was so absorbed, that she didn't notice Sebastian standing in the middle of the room watching her. Over the counter were scattered bowls and pots and pans of all sizes. He'd never seen the kitchen such a mess.
"Abuela, what are you doing?" he finally asked.
She looked up with a start. Her glasses were fogged over, but she didn't bother cleaning them. "What does it look like I'm doing?"
He took another step forward, drawn by the enticing aroma. "You're cooking," he said.
"Bingo!" Lola replied, and she resumed stirring, her head bobbing furiously as she worked the spoon round and round.
Sebastian stepped in closer. "Mom's going to be really mad at you."
"And what will she do?" Lola replied with a bright cackle. "Send me to bed without my dinner?" Then she lifted her spoon and waited for three thick drips to land on her palm. She slurped these up, then puckered and smacked her lips. She pondered her taste buds for a moment before adding a pinch of something from one of several small bowls she had lined up on the counter, and stirred it in. Then she turned to Sebastian. "Taste this sauce and tell me what you think," she commanded.
Sebastian obediently walked forward with his hand extended, and Lola allowed three thick drops of brown sauce to puddle into it as well. He glanced at her shyly before slurping it up, and then paused, somewhat confused. He'd never tasted anything quite like it. It was rich and savory, sweet and spicy all at once, and the flavors lingered like a beautiful melody on his tongue. It was, in short, delicious.
"Well, what do you think?" she asked.
"It's good," Sebastian said, craving more.
She propped her hands on her hips. "That's all you have to say? Just good?"
"It's very good," he said, and he was prepared to take it further and tell her it was the best thing he'd ever tasted in his life, when he caught sight of something on the counter behind her. Piled high on a large platter were several chunky prehistoric looking bones, something ancient people might've used to bang on their crude drums.
Noticing his interest, she said, "Those are lamb shanks. I would've made cabrito, but it's hard to find at supermarkets around here. It used to be easy to find on the island, but these days they tell me that it's almost impossible to get. I'll have to go downtown and order it special one day."
"What is cabrito?" Sebastian asked, unable to tear his eyes away from the strange looking meat.
"Goat," she replied.
"You eat… goats? The animal that goes Bleeeaaaaat?" he asked, making the same sound he'd performed for Keith and his gang a few weeks ago.
"Of course I do. You come from a long line of goat lovers. Your great grandmother taught me how to make goat. Actually, she didn't really teach me. I learned how to make it the same way I learned how to walk and talk and climb trees. You see, back on the island learning was natural and easy. It didn't require a whole lot of effort like it does here, it just happened in the same way orchids grow in the jungle all by themselves without a gardener or a greenhouse."
Sebastian tore his eyes away from the lamb shanks to look up into his grandmother's face. "But…you…you really eat goats?" he asked again.
Lola was annoyed by her grandson's incredulousness. "I've been eating it all my life, but the first time I tried it, I was even younger than you and…" She stopped to consider him with a wary eye. "No, I don't think I should tell you this story. You may not like it very much."
"Why not?" he asked.
"Because it requires a strong stomach."
Sebastian threw his shoulders back. After his bold act of defiance at the afterschool program, he felt pretty tough. "I can handle it," he said. Lola thought about it for a moment, and then turned the flame down on the stove. She began to tell her story with a voice that was as powerful and vibrant as the flavors that still lingered on Sebastian's tongue.
My oldest sister Tamara, may she rest in peace, was getting married, and we were planning a big feast to celebrate her wedding. She was the first one to find a husband, and my parents had four other girls to marry off, so they were eager to get the show rolling. Money was short, but they ordered a beautiful white wedding dress for her, and lovely yellow dresses for the rest of us. My mother and I spent countless hours making the capias, intricate lacy favors, each one embroidered by hand with the date of the wedding and the names of the bride and groom. We had to make enough for two hundred guests, and every night after the others went to sleep we worked on them, sometimes until the sun came up the next morning.
The wedding preparations were going very well, and everyone was excited about the big party that was planned for after the ceremony. I was excited too until the day before the wedding when I discovered the little cabrito tied to a tree a few yards from the house. He was a baby, and the fur around his ears was still soft so I knew this was probably the first time he'd been separated from his mother. I knelt down to nuzzle him, but while I whispered comforting words to my new little friend, I heard the sound of the blade shrieking against the wetting stone in the kitchen.
By the time my father appeared with his sharpened knife, I was convinced that this was the most precious creature that had ever lived and that, wedding or no wedding, he should be spared. I tried to persuade my father of the same with tears and a fair amount of begging, but he wasn't moved. He pried me away from the goat, and after saying a brief prayer, he took firm hold of the small animal with one hand and readied his knife with the other.
But before he could strike I threw myself on the ground. "No Papi, please don't kill my Cabrito," I cried.
"We can't have a wedding, and serve nothing but rice and beans," he said. "Can you imagine how upset your sister will be if we do that?"
"I don't care about the wedding. All I care about is my cabrito."
"Get inside," my father commanded, pointing his knife toward the house. "I paid good money for this goat, and you're making this more difficult than it needs to be." And he was right because now the cabrito was struggling against my father, and his eyes were fearful as though he finally understood what was going to happen to him. But my father managed to get a firm grasp of him again.
I was preparing to go into the house so that I wouldn't have to see him die, but at that moment, the little cabrito looked at me. His eyes were pleading with me to accept his fate, and to stay with him and give him strength - to be present, nothing more.
"Papa," I said. "Let me stay, and I promise that I won't cry anymore."
He thought about this, and when he saw that I was indeed calmer, he allowed me to place my hand on the cabrito's back which instantly calmed him too. After one swift swipe of the blade, I felt the cabrito start and shudder beneath my hand. Blood poured from his throat in a thick stream, creating a red river at our feet. As the flow lessened, his front knees buckled and after several minutes he collapsed in my father's arms. I wanted to cry when I saw him lying motionless on the ground, but I held my tears.
The next day, I brushed my hair, put on my new dress, and went outside to the place where the carcass was slowly roasting. The aroma was intoxicating, and I paused for a moment to savor it. And then, when I thought no one was watching, I took a handful of the beautiful capias my mother and I had made and tossed them into the fire. They flared up and turned into ash within seconds. Little did I know that my mother was watching me from the kitchen window and she scolded me severely. She told me that for that misdeed she would think long and hard about giving me a wedding when my turn came. I cried a river of tears, and my mother was angry with me for quite some time, but it was worth it.
When Lola finished her story, she turned her attention back to the pot simmering on the stove.
"But I don't understand Abuela Lola," Sebastian said. "Why did you throw the capias in the fire? What difference did it make if the little goat was already dead?"
"I wanted to thank him with a sacrifice of my own, and mine was by far the easiest to make," Lola said as she sprinkled more seasoning into the pot.

The Pecos Eagles came roaring into El Paso and roared right past the Mountain View Lobos 59-10 Friday night in the District 3-3A opener for both teams at Lobo Stadium.
"We worked hard all week knowing that we were going up against the defending district champs," said Eagle head coach Chris Henson. "We started out a little sluggish, I guess from the bus trip. But, we picked it up quite a bit."
The Lobos got the scoring started in the first quarter, marching down the field and scoring on a Gabe Corral 1-yard touchdown run. The Eagles answered quickly when quarterback Mario Gallardo connected with Benny Ephraim on a 26-yard touchdown pass, leaving the teams in a 7-7 tie.
The Lobos added a Corral field goal, but that was the end of the Mountain View run.
The Eagles soared in the second quarter, scoring five times. Pecos scored three rushing touchdowns of 10 and 26 yards, highlighted by Aschton Aguilar's 92-yard touchdown run. Gallardo connected with Jared Windham for two more touchdown passes -- one for five yards, one for 20 yards -- leaving the Eagles on cruise control with a 39-10 lead.
"The coaches got us ready for this game by making us work hard," Gallardo said. "They told us about how they beat us last year for district, so we wanted to play well."
Marcos Cordova added a 35-yard touchdown run and Gallardo added two more touchdown tosses.
The Eagles are now 4-2 overall and 1-0 in district play, while the Lobos drop to 3-3 overall and 0-1 in district.

If "necessity is the mother of invention", then I'd argue that buy one get one free sales are the father of invention. With nearly a quart of blueberries in the fridge, I've been franticly trying to use them all before they go bad. Since strawberry lemonade is one of my favorite summertime beverages, I decided to give it a shot with blueberries instead.
As it turns out, blueberries work just as well as strawberries in lemonade. It's cool and refreshing and yet the fruit keeps it from being too tart. By making a blueberry lemon puree in the blender there's no need to make a simple syrup first, and the resulting puree will keep for a while in your fridge. Once you've made the puree, you just mix it with still water, sparkling water, ice tea, or the spirit of your choice to make an awesome cocktail. Head over to PBS Food to get the full recipe.

Aaah Cubello .... Perfect for 10 minute sessions in between diaper changing and soothing the crying baby. (became father last tuesday, no more time for lengthy adventures) Thank you nintendo and 'bout time too!
day 1 purchase for sure. Thx
Only one player profile? quite an oversight in what is essentially a score attack game. Hope they'l fix that in a download soon! Anyways, downloading this one just the same.
Ok, the long wait for Art Style games, not getting goo on wiiware at all etc, is infuriating but we DID get tetris party. Online tetris = sweet! (aka bye bye social life) Besides I have a day job and would have to call in sick if I wanted to even scratch the surface of all the great games the US got in the past couple of weeks. Thank the lord for small mercies.
Anyone know the reasoning behind the decision to not releasing this as a digital download in pal regions? And yes, if we have to pay more than 20 euro just for the extra level we are getting screwed over.
Controversy over this?
So called purists, a jaded bunch.
Nice music on the site, hope the game will be as playable as it is cute.
Tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1989!
With this, bomberman, tetris, devil crush, gradius and who knows what else coming up the wiiware service is starting to become classic gaming (hate the term hardcore) heaven!
Yupyup, Belgian gamesite 9lives also states that we will be getting Mega Man 9 tonight ...
Helix might suffer if that is the case but what game wouldn't?
Im trying to rationalise people being disappointed with the release of super mario 2. I really am. Doki doki panic with mario visuals,...
Ok. So? It's not like most people didn't know about that for AGES. It doesn't change the playability nor the originality of this title one bit. What you get is some vintage Myamoto magic. And Birdo.
Everytime Nintendo tries something a bit different with one of their franchises the hordes are ready to dismiss it. Look at the universally reviled Zelda 2 for instance... Also brilliant, but different.
One of the most original Mario's AND one of the best shooters in the history of videogaming. Glad I saved some Wiipoints.
Off topic: Dammit nintendo, when will we have a release date for Super Paper Mario?
One more go.... Aaaaaarrrghhh. That sixth level is murder! I thought that after the fifth one it couldn't get any harder but the end of level boss in the sixth is kicking me where it hurts. Brilliant shooter, in fact one of the best vertical scrollers ever. I find myself playing this more than any wii-specific game out there (apart from Twilight Princess of course). The VC is THE reason to own Nintendo's machine if we get to play rare gems like these. More PC-engine shooters Ninty, c'mon!
This game is legend! And yes it has been available on the GBA for a while, but I'd much rather play it on a television screen than 'on the move' as it were. And since i never bought the GBA player for my cube...

My body seems to think it ate something when I drink a Diet Shasta since it has splenda in it. So, I drink one when I just want something sweet but I am not really hungry. Then my body seems to get busy burning what I already own on my body since nothing new is in my tummy.
I love coffee. So to make sure I drink enough water. I don't allow myself to drink that second cup until I have a bottle of water. I get to enjoy my coffee and still get my required water every day.

Subscription Music's Curious Silence
The Napster 'hack' allows music lovers to convert their music streams into music downloads but the issue of stream-capturing is much bigger than a single hacked player, something no one wants to talk about.
For Napster, these may be the best of times and the worst of times. The company finally unveiled Napster To Go, which allows subscribers to its streaming music service to put music on select portable digital music players. But not long after the service was introduced, Napster fell victim to a workaround that may threaten the company's new subscription business model.
Napster now offers two music plans: Users can pay.99 cents to download a song, or for $9.95 per month, they can get streaming access to over 1,000,000 songs.
The workaround requires the Winamp player, changing its user setting, signing up for Napster's free 14-day trial period, and then recording the Napster-provided music streams playing through your PC. It's an updated – and higher quality – version of putting a tape recorder up to your speakers and recording songs off the FM dial.
News of the hack appeared first on various message boards, and was quickly picked up by the Los Angeles Times, which had the dishy dirt of Apple Computer chief executive officer Steve Jobs emailing the news around to record labels, writing "I thought you should know if you haven't heard about this."
When informed of the Jobs' note, Napster'a chief executive officer Chris Gorog allegedly dashed off a response to the record label heads, reassuring them that Napster itself hadn't been hacked, while pointing out Apple's fallibility in the digital rights management game as well.
For good measure, Napster's chief technology officer Bill Pence posted a message on the Napster homepage, writing "[N]either Napster To Go, Napster, nor Windows Media DRM have been hacked."
The huge stir this workaround has caused, though, is a bit odd because many legal – and in some cases, free – programs convert streams into MP3 files..
Call it the soft underbelly of the subscription music business model, something none of the major players seems to want to talk about: It's very easy to turn stream-only services into download plans without changing a thing.
Replay Music, which retails for $50, will even append song, artist, and album information to the file in the background, with about a 90 percent accuracy rate.
None of the the major streaming services – Napster, Yahoos MusicMatch, RealNetwork's Rhapsody, or digital music distributor MusicNet – would talk on the record about their company's position on the various programs.

Event Details for: Price Crosses Moving Average
Tells Me: The price is generally in an established trend (bullish or bearish) for the time horizon represented by the moving average period (21, 50 or 200 bars). Moving averages are used to smooth out the volatility or "noise" in the price series, to make it easier to discover the underlying trend. By plotting the average price over the last several bars, the line is less "jerky" than plotting the actual prices. A bullish event is generated when the price crosses above the moving average, and in this state, the price is likely in an established uptrend. The opposite is true when the price crosses below the moving average, triggered a bearish event.
Event Date:
Nov 06, 2012
Opportunity Type:
Short-Term Bullish
Close Price:
Price Period:
Price crossed above the 21-day moving average.
Event Details for: MACD
The MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) plots the difference between a shorter-term (12-bar) and a longer-term (26-bar) exponential moving average (EMA). Bullish and bearish events are generated respectively as the MACD fluctuates above and below zero to indicate whether prices in the shorter term are stronger or weaker than the longer term average. A 9-period EMA of the MACD is overlayed as a "signal line" which smooths out the MACD to provide a clearer view of whether it's moving upward or downward. A bullish event is generated when the MACD crosses above the signal line, showing that the current MACD is actually higher than its average, a sign of increasing strength for the price. The opposite is true for bearish events which signal decreasing strength in price as the MACD crosses below the signal line showing that it's now below average.
Event Details for: Short-term KST
The KST, "Know Sure Thing", is an oscillator that combines multiple time frames into a single measure of momentum for a financial instrument. It can be interpreted in the same way as other smoothed oscillators but most commonly indicates bullish and bearish momentum signals as it crosses above and below its moving average respectively.
Event Details for: Williams %R
Tells Me: For bullish events, we seem to be in a new uptrend now that the price has recovered from oversold (dropped below -80 then rose above). The opposite is true for bearish events where we seem to be in a new downtrend now that the price has recovered from overbought. Meanwhile there is clear evidence that the trend has reversed (continued through the -50 level). Williams %R is built on the premise that as prices increase, "close" prices tend to be closer to the upper end of the recent price range, and vice versa. The oscillator looks at the most recent "close" price as a percentage of the high-to-low price range over a specified period of time (14 bars) so when %R is high, it's likely we're seeing upward pressure, and vice versa. The line fluctuates between 0 and -100 with -20 and -80 often used to identify overbought and oversold conditions.

West Seattle business news: The Cask coming to AdmiralApril 4, 2010 at 10:28 pm | In West Seattle businesses, West Seattle news, WS beverages | 31 Comments
Story and photo by Keri DeTore
Reporting for West Seattle Blog
If you've noticed activity in the storefront where Dante's closed a year ago, between the Admiral/California Wells Fargo and Zatz A Better Bagel, here's what's coming: The Cask.
The Cask is described by co-owner Shon MacDughlas as an "Old World ale and wine house" which will offer local, independent-label wines and 150 imported beers. MacDughlas notes that the venue, which he co-owns with his wife Dedria Pope, a West Seattle-based Windermere real-estate agent, has applied for a "multi-faceted license" allowing them to offer beverages for retail sale as well as serving them.
The Cask will provide a "cozy" atmosphere with wood features (including the bar top, made from a fallen old-growth fir), lamplight, and music, including a lounge with space to accommodate solo musicians.
According to MacDughlas, the bar will feature six rotating taps of seasonal craft beers, and one "cask-conditioned" beer engine — a pump that pushes the ale out of the cask without the use of CO2 or nitrogen, while still creating a head on the ale. He says these are considered "real ales."
For starters, The Cask will offer mostly beverages, with some snack foods, but the proprietor hopes to eventually be able to offer meat and cheese platters and more hearty "European fare."
He's a lifelong West Seattleite, and this isn't his first endeavor – he started what is now C&P Coffee as "The Elder Green" with a business partner.
Asked about opening a new business in the current economy – in a neighborhood where five new establishments have opened in recent months (Porterhouse, Brickyard, renovated Angelina's, Shipwreck Tavern, Heartland Café) – MacDughlas notes that restaurants and pubs still tend to be "packed." He feels the Admiral District is an area that will welcome and support a business like his, and notes the added amenity of having dedicated parking behind the building, as well as the underground parking lot next to nearby Bartell Drugs.
The owners are aiming to open The Cask in May, adding the usual caveat that it depends on the construction process.

Gosh,I was wondering when we're going to get another place in West Seattle to drink at.

wow…the Admiral District is certainly coming together. Now, some shops that maybe offer clothes, things like that. I'd never have to leave the 'hood ;-)
lord help us if they stick a bunch of big TV's in the place. PLEASE no.

Oh no dsa, you're wrong. Papered-over windows are MUCH better, at least until someone opens a shop that caters to everyone's every need at all times.
Comment by dawsonct — 11:56 pm April 4, 2010 #
We've been working on this for about a week, ever since noticing the liquor-license filing, but until researching the links to add to Keri's copy before publishing the story tonight, I didn't realize an entire year had passed since the shoe store moved out. By the way, we'll have a little update on Locol, the wine/beer place in the works on the "other side of town" (Sunrise Heights), shortly, after checking in with its owner a few days ago … TR
Sounds like a good addition to the neighborhood. That business district is getting better and better.
Comment by Meghan — 7:33 am April 5, 2010 #
geez, what a bunch of negative nellys in this thread already. you could cut the sarcasm with a knife. get it thru your heads – more businesses opening up in WS is a GOOD thing. Not a bad thing. if they survive, then there is a market for it. if not, then there wasn't. there seems to be a market for drinking establishments in WS. Go to Capitol Hill or University District sometime and you'll see *gasp* multiple bars on the same block, sitting next to other businesses. Stuff like this turns WS neighborhoods into a destination – both for people on the peninsula and for people coming from other areas of Seattle. I for one love that now, if we go all the way to the Admiral District, there is more than one place to choose from. Yay for new businesses! :D
Comment by HelperMonkey — 8:59 am April 5, 2010 #
I think it sounds great. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for no big screen TVs. Takes away from the atmosphere. Prost almost has it, but the TVs definitely detract. We need a good wine bar in WS. Hopefully this is finally it.
Comment by LL — 9:13 am April 5, 2010 #
agreed – can't wait to check this new place out! :)
Comment by AM — 9:16 am April 5, 2010 #
Sounds like a good place to sit down, relax and get cozy with a nice glass of wine and a conversation. Beats having a glass of wine at a loud sports bar/pub, with big screens and obnoxious people, sitting on a stool screaming to hear at the person you're with so they can hear you. I hope they have some comfy seating attire!
Comment by bsmomma — 9:39 am April 5, 2010 #
This sounds awesome! Welcome to Admiral Cask. I always enjoy a new place to drink.
Comment by dmc — 10:11 am April 5, 2010 #
Way to go!! We will be coming over from Kirkland to check out this awesome place!!
Comment by Jill Z — 10:25 am April 5, 2010 #
I wish they'd open up some more stuff down at the Morgan Junction end of town, we're feeling neglected over here.
Comment by natinstl — 11:36 am April 5, 2010 #
Admiral seemed so sleepy when I moved back to WS two years ago, now it seems like someplace new is opening every week! A great addition!
imagine this: a rainy windy night and your sitting inside with a friend (or alone) sipping a glass of wine or a fine beer while the glow of intimate table lamps shed warmth throughout….there is soft relaxing music somewhere in the background making you relaxed and comfortable….outside it's still raining so you decide to stay a while longer ….. The marqee across the street iluminates brightly, and the raindrops keep falling… but it's o.k. everything is just fine inside..

hello- for a minute, I thought you were going to start singing the 'cheers' theme song
Comment by sam — 1:02 pm April 5, 2010 #
Sounds like a great place to go to try some specialty beers and local wine before buying it to take home or to a party.
Sounds like a good loungy spot to hang out as well.
Comment by sg — 1:06 pm April 5, 2010 #
With all the other watering holes in West Seattle, I'll never have to leave. Hope they have punch cards.
Comment by Kim — 2:37 pm April 5, 2010 #
Although the positive comments on these new/re-opened small food and beverage businesses probably outweigh the negative ones, there's still enough of the negative, that it get's mighty tiresome. What do people want to move into our neighborhoods? TGIFriday's? Olive Garden? Hooters?
Small, local businesses are the ones that keep most, if not all, of the money in the community. Or, even if the owner lives in Bellevue, at least the money isn't going out of State to a bunch of overpaid corporate execs, including a president, and ten vice presidents for every department, or function they can come up with.
Plus, these businesses are moving into existing longtime buildings, many if not most of which have some character, rather than the building being torn down for yet another homogenized mixed use. Plus, many of them have retained the signage and other features of the previous, often decades old business that was there previously, only changing out the name of the business on the sign.
Disclosure; I haven't had the opportunity to try most of these new places that have opened up in the last few years, due to my current financial situation, or because when I might think to give on a try, it's during their closed hours, but I wholeheartedly welcome them, as they try to keep the character of our neighborhoods, which has been lost in other ways, only adding their own touch, to sort of "freshen things up" a bit.

THAT IS FANTASTIC NEWS! (CAPS!!!) I've always wanted a place closer to home so I don't have to trek to Morgan to BPP. Hooray beer! All you negative nans can suck it.
Comment by J.See — 4:00 pm April 5, 2010 #
These two owners…Shon and Dee are two of the nicest, conscientious and considerate people you may ever know :) The customer care will be old town West Seattle flavor. I'm biased because I've known them along time…but you can always count on Shon and Dee, always!…they're top shelf, and darn pretty as well…almost as pretty as me ;)…darn, now I've gone and given myself away, haven't I.
Comment by GO CASK! — 5:11 pm April 5, 2010 #
@J. See – you don't have to trek to Morgan Junction and the BPP anyway. Circa, Porter House, Prost … not the worst choice in town by any means. Even if BPP does kick @$$ as well as it does.

Circa, Porterhouse and Prost don't carry my favorite beer, but BPP often does. This place sounds like a place that would also carry it or a variation of it. That would make me ever so happy!

This is going to be cool. Now all we need is some parking.
