COMMERCE CITY — Ever since he got here last year, Rapids coach Oscar Pareja has preached about his desire for a team that not only wins but wins in an entertaining manner. Newcomer Vicente Sanchez gave Rapids fans a vivid demonstration last week, dazzling with flair and creativity in a crucial 2-1 victory over rival FC Dallas.
Sanchez scored an equalizing goal with a sharp volley to the far post from a couple of paces outside the 6-yard box after the Rapids fell behind 1-0.
Later he created a game-winner that officially went down as an own goal for Dallas. Sanchez's cross deflected off the foot of defender Matt Hedges and into the goal, but if Hedges hadn't gotten in the way, onrushing Rapids forward Gabriel Torres almost certainly would have put it in the back of the net. Either way, the play was all Sanchez, who embarrassed Dallas defender George John with his footwork before feeding the ball into the 6-yard box.
Sanchez not only is willing to take on a defender, he will take on two, mesmerizing them with his technique.
"It's my way of playing," said Sanchez, a veteran of Mexico's first division (Toluca and Club America) whom the Rapids acquired Aug. 6. "I always try to be entertaining but always professionally. For as serious as these games are, one can't forget that we're in entertainment. This is an entertaining sport. You have to take this seriously and wait for your spots when you can do these kind of things."
His play Saturday was exactly what the Rapids hoped to get from him. He was the difference in the game, and he was fun to watch.
"He had a wonderful night, especially because he sparked the team in a moment we needed it," Pareja said. "Every time he got the ball, the people got excited because he is bringing that difference in the game. The players as well, they appreciate it because they get confidence to do it. It is for sure a big part of the project we have here, to have an entertaining soccer."
Captain Drew Moor likes the way Sanchez commands the ball, even in tight spaces, and the sneaky way he has of taking the ball away from opponents. Sanchez has brought a jolt of energy to the team's stretch run.
"He's always making himself available, always getting into dangerous spots, always has the confidence to take people on, 1-v-1 or sometimes 1-v-2," Moor said. "At this point in the season, that injection of energy and enthusiasm to will the team forward is huge."

Celebrity Style: Milla Jovovich
It's a known fact that many models have style. These are, after all, the gals who get to wear the collections first, have the bodies to wear even the slimmest cut, travel the world for inspiration and make very good money for smiling and walking - why do we not hate these girls again? Milla Jovovich has been on the scene a while now and has proven she can do more than just walk and smile; she can sing, act and design, and yet, I can't hate her. Here she is at the Mango event we wrote about earlier. Though she is wearing a frock from the Mango collection, found by Mysterious ways, I thought this look was easy Mod and breezy chic. You don't need much else but a lovely smile when you have ladylike black and white going on.

Can You Help Me Fix A Broken Xbox?
Posted 23 May 2006 - 02:39 AM
Some moron managed to tear out the DVD drive from the xbox. The drive seems to be intact, and looks repairable, so i'd like to try to salvage it, and turn it into a media center for my folks
Here's what's going on with it now:
with the original broken DVD drive it turns out, the light is green, but there's nothing on screen. The harddrive is extremly loud, so i though that might a problem. So i swap in an old xbox harddrive i had lying around. That solved the noise problem, but still no picture (was expecing an error message).
I thought it may be the DVD rom, so i swaped that with the one from my personal xbox. That didn't work. When i got the xbox, the front panel was torn off, but somehow the wires were intact. Just in case, i swaped it with my own front panel, and the results are the same.
Now, when i try to hit eject, i head the DVD rom doing something inside, but nothing actually happens. This takes place with both a broken one, and a working one
Can you please help me salvage it?
Posted 23 May 2006 - 03:21 AM
i did
there's something messed up with the way it opens
Take a look at the picture
the black round part that spins the CD is hitting the tray itself when i try to close it
i can't seem to figure out what's causing it, and how to take care of it
Posted 23 May 2006 - 04:22 AM
just required some playing around
the first problem still persists though
the xbox is refusing the eject the original drive, or a working one
it appears to work, but no video is on screen

Has there ever been any mod attempt made to the board?
Try unplugging everything from the board (ie DVD and HDD) and see if you get something up on the screen.
By the sounds of it, if the DVD was yanked out and the face panel was off, somebody mistreated this Xbox pretty severly.
Posted 23 May 2006 - 09:50 AM
Dreamcazmank the LED just stays solid green
it doesn't appear that there were any mod attempts, the stickers on the back were intact.
when i unplugged everything, i got the same result
i did manage to make some progress though. I took my solderless adapter, stuck that on the motherboard, and put my xenium on it. I did get a picture on screen: the xenium safe mode was enabled. It just sat there and did nothing for a while. Then it came up with IDE error 04. I can't figure out what that is, even after searching.
Now, somehow, once, i did see the green blob, and after that, it came up with and error screen: error 06. I know that has to do with locking or unlocking the harddrive, and that's fine. I wasn't using the harddrive it came with, so i wasn't surprised when i saw the error. I did that by removing the chip, but leaving the adapter in. I haven't managed to recreate it though. I did try unlocking the harddrive that i have with XBOX HDM, and puting that in, but no luck.
That's about it. The farthest i've gotten is seing IDE Error 04 on the xenium. I was going to try to reflash it, but since i have no way to open the DVD-Rom, that's not going to work for now.

Hmm, sounds to me like this Xbox upset the the previous owner and he grabbed it by the tray, flung it across the room while it was turned on and in the process killed all the moving parts. Maybe he was even in the middle of flashing the TSOP (onboard BIOS), and nuked it - it would explain the lack of an image!
Another thing to consider is, could this be a PAL Xbox? Will your TV display a PAL image?
Now, it's easy for me to get on my high horse here because I can solder and I'm also a Linux geek. So I don't want to sound like I'm making it piss easy, but I would try fitting a modchip that has been flashed with the Cromwell BIOS (version 2.40). The Cromwell BIOS is used only for loading Linux (it cannot run games because it does not use any MS code). But its best feature for you is that it is extremely tolerant of drives not being connected. Even if you have no DVD drive, or no Hard disk installed, it will still display the BIOS screen. This way, you can confirm if the hardware is shagged or not - if the Cromwell BIOS screen appears, the motherboard is all good.
Your IDE errors refer to the hard disk or DVD drive not being seen. (IDE means "Integrated Drive Electronics" and in laymans terms means "a hard disk or DVD drive connected via an IDE ribbon cable"). It tells me that your Xbox is not very happy with the hard disk or DVD-ROM drive.
Personally, I would flash your Xenium with Cromwell on another Xbox (easy for me to say, I have three...) to see if you can get video, then put it in the dud Xbox to see if you can get video. If you can, then reflash the Xenium with EvoX or your other favourite BIOS. Once you have the BIOS and video appearing, you can work on the hard disk and DVD-ROM drive.
Posted 23 May 2006 - 11:29 AM
I did manage the get the DVD Tray open (all the sudden it started to work) so i trie restoring the Xenium OS to defaults. I just burned the ISO that i downloaded from xenium's site. I'll be honest, i didn't do much reading on it. It's been a while since i had to flash the chip. I am not a power user. Once i get the xbox to work, i leave it alone.
I'd like to try things in other xboxes, but all i have avalible is a 1.6 that i need to return to a friend, and a 1.0 with some stripped plastic, which makes it hard to put the chip back on it.
Posted 23 May 2006 - 06:54 PM
Posted 23 May 2006 - 07:05 PM
i am going to try intalling my current modchip there, and if i can get it to work, TSOP flash might be a great way to salvage the xbox
Posted 24 May 2006 - 03:04 AM
after some tinkering around, i put my xenium on the broken xbox, and managed to boot into the xenium OS
i connected an unlocked harddrive, and locked it.
Then i proceded to boot into Slayer, and restored the HD. Now, when i try to boot the xbox with the chip it boots into MS Dash. Great!
But, when i take the chip out, it turns out, the light goes solid green and there's nothing on screen
pimpmaul69, you might be on to something, i may have to do a TSOP flash
Any ideas?

pimpmaul69, you might be on to something, i may have to do a TSOP flash
Any ideas?
I think you mentioned this was a version 1.0 Xbox, yes? You can apparently flash the TSOP in these without a softmod (softmod works on all version 1.0-1.5 systems). I think the article was here on Xbox-scene.com, but it was a tad complex - especially if you don't solder!
A better option is to leave the modchip in it. These expensive solderless chips are great, but expensive - so I use the cheaper solder models. I have a personal preference for the Duo X2 but an Aladdin XT or Duo X3 (basically two Aladdin XTs on one chip) would also be fine. Since this is a version 1.0 Xbox, the solder job is quite easy.
If you lived near me (Melbourne, Australia), I'd do it for you!

leaving the chip in is an option actually. The reason i bought a second xbox, is to give it to my parents. No, my mom doesn't like Halo, but my folks do watch a ton of movies, and my dad hates having to burn DVDs all the time. I figure XBMC would be nice to have in their living room
So, what i might do, i just give them my xbox, and keep this one.
pimpmaul69, what you are suggesting DOES sound simple. I would defenetly prefer to read up on it though. Can you point me to a tutorial about this?

Baseball Instruction's Seminal Moment Arrives
A reader's handy tip today uncovered this exciting development:
A reader's handy tip today uncovered this exciting development:
The fine folks over at BASEBALL-REFERENCE.COM have undertaken the mammoth task of attempting to document every home run hit in Major League history. By their count, Gary Sheffield's second-inning grand slam off of Oakland starter Gio Gonzalez on Monday night was the 250,000th in Major League history (dating to 1876). But is it really #250K? And does it even matter?
B-R's website dedicated to the pursuit provides the following disclaimer:
Ladies: Do you like horses? Ice cream? Things that smell nice? Of course you do. Fellas: Care for a self-destructive day of binge-drinking? Mid-shelf stuff. My treat. There you go. See, we're all going to get along great.
I'm Richard McPlenty, your Sunday captain. Brooks has tapped me to run this show (many thanks to the good man). If cameras were rolling, we could make an instructional video that gets results. Alas, let's stick to the simple things. I'll throw this baseball, on two hops, into your trash can at home plate. And whenever you can tear yourself away from all the Pro Bowl prop bets you're mulling over, send me some sugar at firstname.lastname@example.com I only have one rule: You will capitalize Super, and you will capitalize Star. If we all pull together, we will win back-to-back-to-back AAU blogging championships.

1 small red onion, finely sliced
Juice from one lime
6 Tbsp. prepared Asian sesame salad dressing
1 small red bell pepper, finely sliced
2 Tbsp. white sesame seeds
I've never made anything with Kale. I know it's supposed to be super nutritious and tasty but I can't get over the fact that in a couple of restaurants we used it for decorative purposes on salad bars and that has just stuck in my mind.
Ehhhh does not sound like one that i would like!!
I would probably like this one, and it must be nutritious, too. :) Thank you for the recipe.

Glenn I see what you are saying. The last time I checked the NAV of Novus wa $1.64. I am content to wait and see what the sale price will be, if it will sell all. But I am betting there will be a sale. It would be nice to know sooner than later, but I am most hopeful of a good price. I may be dissapointed or elated dependig on what I think a good price is. I am hopeful for a good reserves report as well, when it comes out, (if it comes out pending a sale) a couple of neighbors WCP and RRX have had a good % increase in their reserves recently, we may not be that good, but I am hopeful it will be close. As for the lowball guesses here....I truly doubt the company will give this away on the cheap, they don't have to sell it. I do agree, there are many factors in determning a sale price beyond just current production, but I like what Novus has to offer in that regard, so I wait......

I see a hard water stain line and a bit of a blue line.
Sorry. I see a line.
BUT. I ALWAYS get false postives with blue-dyed tests. Even when I don't ovulate...
Throw it away and take an accurate test. Yes, I see a line but it's a blue dye test-there is always a line IMO.
Two important life lessons; you can't negotiate with crazy and you can't fix stupid...just saying.
yeah i agree take another test I had the same scare 2 months ago with a blue dye test

Question:hello jussi, I notice there several different stand up form so which one you will recommended to everyone? right foot on front and left foot on back? or like toilet seat form? as for right on front and left foot on back seem most common for most players. I am also curious which would be better if have front leg stay straight and have left foot push into back just like eric s form? or have front leg bend little lower than have straight leg? hope your feedbacks will be helpful
Thank you for a good question. I will answer you from a perspective of a stand still throw. I line up my feet so my toes forms a line matching the throwing line. Then I move my back left foot one foot behind. This way, I make room to my pull that I want to keep straight. When I start to pull my throw, my left foot is bend ready to push. My right foot is almost straight but never locked. You want your both feet to be "dynamic". When pulling my throw, the move starts always from the legs (push). Leg work is essential to gain distance.
Question:Sometimes when I throw putter, the disc stucks in my had and I release it very late. This makes me very uncomfortable on all approaches. What can be the reason that the putters stucks in my hand and do you have any tips to avoid this?
To avoid grip locks and late releases, you need to work with your grip. I use a grip that is more "open" when I throw my P2s. Its close to the regular fan grip. I put my index finger on a rim and my middle along the bottom of the flight plate. My ring and little fingers are towards to the inner rim. Grip is very personal, but you should try this.
More important is the feel of the grip. First of all, when I´m throwing putters, I use stand still throw. It´s more accurate and you do not need to mind about your footwork. Typically, my putter throw is between 100 to 300 feet. When I throw my P2 putter, I use more thumb pressure. I form my grip by pressing my thumb towards my index and middle fingers. So, my grip is more tight on these finger tips than its in regular power grip where there is more pressure towards palm.
I hope you can get some tips from my style and you are able to build a confidence to your putter throws. They are really accurate when you master them.
Question:hey Man! i was wondering what grip you use on your putts as you don't actually cover it in the ditg video, is it slightly modified to allow more spin than a fan grip?
Good question Neal. I actually use regular fan grip in my putts, where I place my thumb on top, my index finger on a rim and my other fingers on bottom of a disc. My pinky is touching the inside rim. When I putt, my grip is quite loose until the stroke (hit). During the throw, I press my thumb towards to my middle finger and I imagine that my putter is that tiny piece of plastic between my fingers. I will "spin" that piece to the target. My index finger is controlling the disc angle.
Question:I have heard the best flight height for distance is 10 - 20 feet off the ground. Any tips how to hit this line and get power without loosing control? I find I tend to flip my disc over immediately. I throw star destroyers 170-173g.
If you are talking about golf drive on the course that needs to be control able, the height (10-20 feet) you mentioned is good. With a lower-line shot, you can prevent your drive to end way aside of the fairway.
Your question is more about technique. I would need to see your throw to analyse it. In general, you need to keep your pull loose and accelerate it towards the hit point. Its like a chain reaction: feet, hips, back, arm, follow-through. The flipping over issue sounds like your drive motion is not "pure" and smooth and the disc leaves your hand with a flutter?
I can give you one tip for power drives: Never use maximum power on a golf course. Always keep the focus on your technique.
Question:The sport is developing towards a more and more competitive direction (big thanks to guys like you!). I've been somewhat following your performances as a quality level player. Though living in Finland where the actual season is rather short (Apr-Oct at it's longest), you seem able to put up some world class rounds - even considering that you only participate in a couple of major events a year. How have you been able to maintain such a high level of play no matter the circumstances?
I think Disc Golf is like driving a bike – once you learn it, you have it. It all depends how you treat your game and how you prepare for the tournaments. Its also mental and you need to be able to get the best out of you in competition. I think I have that ability. I´m usually at my best when there is something on stake. I try to keep my physical level doing other sports like running.
At the moment, Disc Golf is developing fast and guys like me will become more like spectators:) To be the best Disc Golfer is a full-time job and there are dozens of these kids out there.
Question:Jussi, I am currently in the process of getting my bachelor's degree in marketing and am also an avid disc golfer. I have been playing for three years and have started my own club and have TD'd a few smaller events. I am wondering what you think it would take to make a living/career once I graduate in the disc golf world. Any advice or guidance is greatly appreciated.
Jory, If you want something enough, you can make it. Sometimes, things just happen, but most of the times you need to step up and do it. My motto is that if I feel bored to go to my work on Mondays I will quit my job and do something else. Too many people are wasting their lives doing things that they don´t like and dreaming of thing they would like. You have urge and you have skills. Disc Golf is great future job for you, since the sport is growing with two digits annually. That means Disc Golf heavily needs more people, More courses, more tournaments, more equipment and pro players. Every Year. Now, you just need to choose what you really want to do.
Question:Hi Jussi, I know that getting sponsored requires skill and dedication, but I am curious about what else it takes to become a sponsored disc golfer. Do different tournaments have higher likely hoods of getting noticed, are you required to throw only a certain brand of discs, and is there a bottom number rating wise for a sponsored disc golfer?
Good and quite popular question. If you are aiming to be a pro in Disc Golf, you want to build your career from the bottom to the top. Sponsorships are one key part of that. I think all Disc Golf companies are looking for outgoing, nice and talented player who can represent the sport as well. I do not think there are minimum requirements set, but to be selected by Disc Golf company, you need to play bigger events. Try to attend the biggest events in your area. Most of the Disc manufacturers like to see that you really like to throw their discs. There are different levels of sponsorships. Some companies sponsor celebrities, ambassadors and TDs as well.
I wish good luck to you. Do not hesitate to write to your favourite manufacturer and tell them how much you like their stuff.
Question:Title kind of says it all. so whats in your bag.
I have pretty simple bag what becomes to the discs. I throw all Discmania. I mainly throw new stuff, but I like to putt with my soft and sticky first run P2s. They´re around 4 years old. My main go-to driver changed after we released FD. It´s just great all-a-round driver. I also like my C-line PDs alot.

If a Tree Falls at Lunch Period
by Gennifer Choldenko
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Young Reader Reaction: I enjoyed the book, but didn't love it. Its ongoing and suspenseful plot kept to turning the pages. The main characters' feelings were enhanced by their realization of who they are, and the striking differences between them and other people. A lot of the concepts mentioned in this book are related to family problems. The parents fight, the kids worry, then everybody lives happily ever after. My favorite part of the story was when Kirsten's dad Mac, told her that she could fix things. She didn't believe in herself throughout the book, but with the trust of her dad, Kirsten really thought she could do it. And she did. I recommend this book to readers who love a good story about family history secrets. Also, if you enjoy reading the kinds of things popular girls in schools do their classmates, then this book is for you too.
Adult Reader Reaction: Review pending.
Pros: Because the story is told by the two main characters, readers get different perspectives of what's happening. That helps add to the suspense.
To read our full review, go to The Reading Tub®.
Great read-- realistic characters, and I liked that the parents didn't end up divorced. Their situation was a little more nuanced.
Only made it through 20 pages. Neither of the main characters felt at all authentic to me. Bummed, cause I loved Al Capone Does My Shirts!
If a Tree Falls is told in alternating voices, Kirsten and Walk. Walk's chapters tend to be shorter, which is a shame since he's the more interesting (or at least, less annoying) character. Ordinarily this alternating-voice thing wouldn't bother me--but Kirsten's chapters are first-person and Walk's third-person, making it sound like Kirsten has a strange omniscience. The budding friendship between these two was more interesting before the Big Discovery That Changes Everything, the repercussions of which felt rushed and insincere.
After Al Capone Does My Shorts, I guess I'd expected something better. This wasn't bad, but it wasn't really great, either--it's just another addition to the long list of mediocre books I've read.
Slow start to this book made me feel lethargic, but finally kicked into gear after halfway. Kirsten a rich, white girl is struggling a t school due to her inability to meet her mother's high expectations and do well in subjects as well as fit in with the clique groups. Her mother (a socialite) has a secret that she is fearful will get out. Her husband has a love child to an African American and this child is 2 months older than her own daughter Kirsten. Her husband has offered to pay his son's (Walker) schooling at the same school that Kirsten attends. This decision has thrown turmoil into Kirsten and Walkers homes. A few chapters deal with the issues and bitchiness and then like most fairytales they all live happily ever after. The cover is enticing, but the book is a bit of a let down.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0152057536, Hardcover)
Kirsten's parents are barely speaking to each other, and her best friend has fallen under the spell of the school's queen bee, Brianna. It seems like only Kirsten's younger science-geek sister is on her side.
Walker's goal is to survive at the new white private school his mom has sent him to because she thinks he's going to screw up like his cousin. But he's a good kid. So is his friend Matteo, though no one knows why he'll do absolutely anything that hot blond Brianna asks of him.
But all of this feels almost trivial when Kirsten and Walker discover a secret that shakes them both to the core. Fast paced, marvelously funny, and brutally honest, If a Tree Falls at Lunch Period touches on universal truths about human nature.

Kirsten and Walk, seventh-graders at an elite private school, alternate telling how race, wealth, weight, and other issues shape their relationships as they and other misfits stand up to a mean but influential classmate, even as they are uncovering a long-kept secret about themselves.… (more)

According to the National Women's Service (Servicio Nacional de la Mujer, SERNAM), from March 2002 to March 2003, the 23 Family Violence Support and Prevention Centres (Centros de Atención y Prevención de Violencia Intrafamiliar) [translation] "cared for 6,072 people and welcomed 7,214 individuals to their establishments, all of whom were victims of some type of ill treatment" (Chile 7 Mar. 2003).
According to a Ministry of Finance (Ministerio de Hacienda) evaluation report, 9,297 victims of family violence received assistance in 2002, an increase of 70 per cent from 2001 (ibid. June 2003, 4). The report also noted that, with regard to the efficiency and quality of the services, activities at the Family Violence Support and Prevention Centres were restricted because of a lack of resources and the vastness of the territory they cover (ibid.). For example, although the centres saw an increase in the demand for their services, it is estimated that those who received assistance in 2002 represented only 0.23 per cent of the population thought to be affected by violence (ibid.).
In 2003, steps were taken to reform family law in Chile. In April 2003, La Cuarta indicated that the Chamber of Deputies' United Commissions on the Constitution, Legislation, Justice and the Family (Comisiones Unidas de Constitución, Legislación, Justicia y Familia de la Cámara de Diputados) approved the introduction of a bill to create family tribunals (Tribunales de Familia) (17 Apr. 2003). Under this new law, the number of judges specializing in family law would rise from 51 to 250, and these judges would sit on 60 special panels (La Cuarta 17 Apr. 2003). A May 2003 article on the Mujeres Hoy Website also indicated that a divorce law was being considered (19 May 2003). Under the proposed law, new mediation procedures would be established and the new family tribunals would oversee divorce proceedings in conjunction with specialized lawyers, as well as psychologists and social and religious workers (Mujeres Hoy 19 May 2003). It is worth noting that divorce was not previously an option under Chilean law (AP 30 Sept. 2003).
Articles dated June and August 2003 indicated that the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate, in turn, approved the bill to create family tribunals (CAJ 18 June 2003; ibid. 26 Aug. 2003). According to the Andean Lawyers Commission (Comisión Andina de Juristas, CAJ), the family tribunals will play a key role in applying effectively the new civil marriage law or [translation] "divorce law" (ibid.). According to two sources, the first step in setting up the family tribunals is scheduled to begin in mid-2004, with the expectation that they will be ready to hear cases in July 2005 (Mujeres Hoy 19 May 2003; CAJ 26 Aug. 2003) and employ 123 judges at first (ibid.). The last step will be completed in 2007, when the body of magistrates numbers a final total of 250 judges (ibid.).
Sources have reported that the Catholic Church strongly opposes the enactment of the divorce law (Knight Ridder 12 Sept. 2003; AP 30 Sept. 2003). According to the Associated Press (AP), the Catholic Church did its utmost to block this law, including running a television campaign against it (ibid.).
The AP reported that the recently approved law requires couples to prove that they have received psychological counselling before initiating divorce proceedings (30 Sept. 2003). Once both spouses have consented to divorce, they have to wait three years before the divorce becomes final; if only one of the spouses wants the divorce, the waiting period increases to five years (AP 30 Sept. 2003).
According to Latin American Regional Reports, the law is expected to undergo a number of amendments before the Senate finally passes it (28 Oct. 2003). No other information on the status of the divorce law could be found by the Research Directorate.

About Anne Arundel County
History of Anne Arundel County
History - Seventeenth Century through the Present
The first European settlers arrived in present-day Anne Arundel County in 1649. Seventeen years earlier, King Charles I signed the Charter of Maryland granting the colony to Cecil Calvert, the second Lord Baltimore. Cecil Calvert and his father, George, who died two months prior to the charter, envisioned the colony as both an economic enterprise and a place where fellow Roman Catholic royalists could escape the religious strife that was increasingly prevalent in England. After the death of his father, Cecil Calvert was materially aided in his enterprise by his father-in-law, Thomas Arundell, first Baron Arundell of Wardour. A wealthy and influential Catholic, he was able to fulfill his dream of establishing a colony in North America through his son-in-law. In 1642 the English Civil War broke out between the Roman Catholic royalists supporting Charles I and the Protestant Parliamentarians. Cecil Calvert, whose patronage came exclusively from the monarchy, became understandably concerned about his ability to maintain control over his colony. To solidify his position, he took several steps that would prove pivotal in the history of the Maryland Colony and what would soon become Anne Arundel County.
In 1649, the year Charles I was beheaded, the Maryland General Assembly enacted "An Act Concerning Religion" which legislated some degree of religious protection to all Christians. He also replaced the Catholic Acting Governor Thomas Greene with the Virginia Protestant William Stone with the understanding that Stone would help populate his colony. Stone approached a group of nonconformist Virginia Puritans and offered them land and guaranteed freedoms in Maryland. In December of 1649 the first European settlement in Anne Arundel County was founded by these Puritans on the north shore of the Severn River opposite present-day Annapolis. It was called Providence.
Personal tragedy was also a part of 1649 for Cecil Calvert with the death of his beloved wife of twenty-one years, Anne Arundel. In 1650 the Maryland General Assembly created Anne Arundel County and named it after her. The
County seal
still in use is a slight variation on the Coat of Arms of the Lords' Baltimore. London Town was the original seat of County government.
From 1650 through 1695, a series of religious, regional and political struggles occurred in Maryland. In March of 1655, the Battle of the Severn was fought at the mouth of the Severn River and on land either at Horn Point (present-day Eastport) or across the river at Hidden Point.
Governor Stone's forces, under Lord Baltimore's orders, sailed up the Chesapeake Bay from St. Mary's City. His goal was to reestablish the authority of the Calverts over Providence, but the Puritans decisively defeated the Governor's forces and gained temporary control of the colony. Oliver Cromwell restored Cecil Calvert's control in 1657, but in 1688 King William III annulled the Calvert Charter and declared Maryland a royal colony. The General Assembly voted in 1694 to move the capital from St. Mary's City to "Anne Arundell Towne." In 1695 the town was renamed "Annapolis" in honor of then Princess Anne (later became Queen Anne,) younger sister of Queen Mary. Annapolis became the economic, social and political center of the colony and the seat of government for Anne Arundel County. It remained the capital and seat of government when statehood was achieved on April 28, 1788.
Providence and other European settlements throughout the Chesapeake colonies relied upon tobacco as their main cash crop. The soils and climate were favorable, but tobacco had several limitations which proved important in the history of the County. It was a very labor intensive crop which forced farmers to rely on slaves and indentured servants. To meet the labor requirements, slavery was sanctioned by law in 1664. As crop rotation was not practiced during this period, the once fertile soils were rapidly depleted affecting the quality and quantity of the harvest. Even the most successful farmers suffered severe financial hardship during the periodic dips in the tobacco market and many marginal farmers were forced to relocate. Nevertheless, the population of the County tripled between 1700 and 1750 from 4,100 to 12,520. During the period immediately following the Revolutionary War, Baltimore City with its superior port facilities became the economic center of the new state. Concurrently, the northern portion of the County began to develop an economy which was not based entirely on agriculture. Iron ore was mined starting in the eighteenth century. The raw ore was smelted in Glen Burnie at the Curtis Creek Mining, Furnace and Manufacturing Company and at Elkridge Landing (then part of the County). In 1840 the Annapolis & Elkridge Railroad was completed linking northern Anne Arundel County to the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. This railroad and the ones that soon followed were crucial in the development of the area as a regional transportation center. The reliance on tobacco as the major cash crop was lessening throughout the County during the nineteenth century, but it took the socioeconomic changes brought on by the Civil War to finally force local farmers to diversify.
Both Annapolis and Baltimore were occupied by the Union Army during the Civil War to safeguard any attempt by Maryland to secede; pro-southern sentiments ran high throughout the State. Camp Parole was established near Annapolis as a prisoner exchange post for soldiers waiting to be exchanged or paroled. Some of those who succumbed to disease or injury were buried in the military cemetery on the corner of present-day West Street and Taylor Avenue.
Maryland's Fourth Constitution adopted on November 1, 1864 freed the remaining slaves throughout the State. As this labor source disappeared, farmers in the southern portion of the county increasingly shifted to crops such as corn, wheat, hay, and fruit though tobacco was, and is, still grown. Seafood and associated industries such as shucking houses also became significant factors in the economy of that area. Farmers in the northern portion of the County discovered that the prevalent sandy soils were ideal for truck farming. Eastern European families living in Baltimore were transported to the farms to harvest the fruits and vegetables. Initially, Baltimore was the primary market, but over time Anne Arundel County peas, beans, strawberries and cantaloupes became famous throughout the eastern seaboard. Canning and fertilizer plants were opened in northern Anne Arundel County in support of the truck farming.
In the late 1880's, recreation became a major business throughout the County with the opening of numerous summer resorts including Bay Ridge, "The Queen Resort of the Chesapeake." Readily available rail and steamboat access from Baltimore brought clientele to Bay Ridge and other smaller resorts developed on creeks in the northern portion of the County. The resort areas developed in Shady Side and Mayo in the south though popular were relatively small as there was no rail access from Baltimore and the Washington lines ran only to North Beach in the extreme southeast corner of the County. Additionally, paved roads were the exception, not the rule until the twentieth century. In 1893, Major Charles R. Douglass, the son of abolitionist Frederick Douglass, established Highland Beach as an exclusive resort for African Americans. Many prominent African Americans, including Booker T. Washington, Paul Laurence Dunbar and Mary Church Terrell, either visited or owned homes in the community.
The increased industrialization in the County during World War II and the national movement towards suburban living that followed caused significant changes to occur in Anne Arundel County. Major employers such as National Plastics Corporation (now Nevamar) and Westinghouse relocated to the County. The Naval Academy, established in 1845 on the site of Fort Severn, continued to be a major employer. Fort George Meade was established during World War I to train troops for battle in France, but was greatly expanded during World War II. The influx of army personnel and the associated commercial enterprises transformed Odenton from a small rail stop to "Boom Town." Harundale Mall, one of the first enclosed shopping malls in the nation, was opened in 1958, reflecting the change in emphasis from Baltimore to more local commercial centers. Friendship International Airport (Baltimore-Washington International Airport), dedicated in 1950 by President Harry S. Truman, was considered the most advanced facility in the United States. In 1957 it was the East Coast terminus of the record-breaking transcontinental flight by the first Boeing 707 jetliner. The population soared especially in the northern portion of the County as residential, commercial and industrial development continued at a record pace. The population of the County tripled in the decades between 1940 and 1960 from 68,375 to 206,634 with approximately 70% of the population living north of the South River. Charter government was formed in 1964. In 1968 the first Comprehensive Zoning plan was adopted in an attempt to direct and limit the phenomenal growth the County was experiencing. Anne Arundel County continues to attract business and new residents because of its central location between Baltimore and Washington, its superior transportation networks, and the natural beauty and recreational opportunities its 533 miles of shoreline offer. The population of Anne Arundel County is projected to grow throughout the twenty-first century from 485,800 in 2000 to 563,000 in 2030.

Information focus
This section introduces the information focus theme. Resources to support this theme are:
- RCN products and services and RCN publications relevant to this theme
- agencies that provide further information and resources
- policy and reports which shape the current strategic and policy framework for this theme
- guidance and tools which help with understanding of and implementation of policy.
The UK government has been pursuing a digital by default approach to the delivery of public services. This approach has several elements. It is investing considerable public funds in open data and "big data". The open data strategy is making data that is collected by government free to use and reuse for other purposes such as developments in public health. The government is also interested in "big data", this means exploring the patterns present in very large data sets. This intelligence could also have major implications for decision-making in areas like population health.
The policy is present in the digital strategies of each of the four departments of health. In England, the Department of Health's information strategy, 'The power of information: putting all of us in control of the health and care information we need' sets a ten-year framework for transforming information for the NHS, public health and social care. It aims to harness information and new technologies to achieve higher quality care and improve outcomes for patients and service users (DH, 2012). Underpinned by the Health and Social Care Act 2012, it covers public health, healthcare and social care in adult and children's services in England.
One of the commitments in the strategy is to give people better access to their care records. This type of technology can help to put the power back in the hands of the patient. People who can access their own records can be empowered to take part in decisions about their own care in a 'genuine partnership with professionals' (DH 2012, p.7). One of Scotland's five strategic eHealth aims is to use information and technology in a coordinated way to help support people in managing their own health and wellbeing, and to become more active participants in the care and services they receive (Scottish Government, 2011, p.19).
The RCN believes that sharing information about patients across the health care service, subject to appropriate safeguards, is an integral part of nursing and multidisciplinary care. "It is acknowledged that access to good quality information helps people to understand their health situation, make informed decisions about their care and treatment, and manage their own health" (RCN, 2012, p. 2).
However, nursing staff have a responsibility to ensure that they are aware of confidentiality and data protection legislation, local policies and professional guidance and do not abuse their privileged access to patient information. The NMC's Code (NMC, 2008) and principles of good record keeping (NMC, 2010) require nursing staff to keep clear and accurate records and to know how to use information systems and tools and ensure that the systems (and the way they are used) are secure. Dame Fiona Caldicott's independent review highlights the importance of an appropriate balance between the protection of the patient or user's information, and the use and sharing of such information to improve care (DH, 2013, p.5).
The RCN Principles of Nursing Practice embed eHealth and the use of information and communication technology (ICT) as a core element of nursing which impacts on every aspect of the care process. Launched in 2010 the RCN Principles of Nursing Practice set out what patients, colleagues, families and carers can expect from nursing. Principle E encompasses themes of communication, handling feedback, record keeping, reporting and monitoring. For further information, see Principle E. Principle H encompasses themes of leadership contributing to an open and responsive culture. For further information, see Principle H.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Scott Kazmir ended up missing a good game.
Kazmir's teammates overcame his ejection in the second inning by home plate umpire Jerry Layne and the Oakland Athletics beat the Cleveland Indians 6-2 on Saturday night.
Brandon Moss hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs, Josh Donaldson also had three RBIs and Oakland's bullpen allowed one run in 7 2-3 innings to help seal the Athletics' eighth win in nine games.
Dan Otero (4-0) relieved Kazmir and pitched 3 2-3 scoreless innings.
Kazmir revived his career last season with the Indians, going 10-9 with a 4.04 ERA in 29 starts. He signed a two-year, $22 million contract with Oakland in the offseason.
"It's very frustrating," he said. "I was really looking forward to this start and this is probably the best I've felt going out there."
The Indians had already scored a run on a wild pitch when Kazmir walked Jesus Aguilar on a borderline full-count pitch with one out. The walk was the third Kazmir allowed and he was clearly unhappy with Layne's strike zone. Kazmir protested and Layne quickly ejected him.
"I don't really know how to start," Kazmir said. "It ended up a pitch I thought was a strike, he didn't agree with it and before I knew it I was out of the game. It didn't even register I was out of the game. I went to the back of the mound and tried to regroup and I was like, I can't even pitch any more, it's over."
"He was gesturing and arguing balls and strikes," Layne told a pool reporter. "That's automatic ejection. When I warned him, he didn't take any knowledge of that, and that's it. Bottom line, it was just pure balls and strikes."
Kazmir said there was little time between the warning and the ejection.
"I think the warning was in mid-breath, like, warning and then 'You're out of here,' same breath," Kazmir said. "So it was a little surprising. But what are you going to do?"
Oakland manager Bob Melvin raced on the field and had a heated argument with Layne. Kazmir left the field, angrily fired his glove against the wall of Oakland's dugout and kicked a trash can on his way to the clubhouse.
"I wanted to apologize to the trash can," Kazmir said. "It did nothing wrong. I was just frustrated."
Asked if he thought Kazmir was ejected too quickly, Melvin said, "It's tough to comment, I'm going to support my starter."
Oakland responded to the ejection with three runs in the third off Josh Tomlin (2-1).
"I think that kind of inspired us a little bit," Donaldson said. "I don't take that lightly when you throw our starting pitcher out in the second inning."
Coco Crisp doubled with one out and scored on Donaldson's two-out single. Moss then hit a full-count pitch to right-center for his ninth homer of the season.
Donaldson, who had three hits, added a two-run triple that hit high off the wall in left in the seventh. Layne, the crew chief, initiated a review to check if it was a home run, but the original call was upheld. Moss followed with an RBI single.
The Athletics lost a similar challenge last season when an apparent game-tying home run in the ninth by Adam Rosales was ruled a double and the Indians hung on for the win.
Otero relieved and got Mike Aviles to hit into a double play. Fernando Abad allowed a run in the sixth, but Luke Gregerson and Sean Doolittle closed out the win.
The game was briefly delayed during Oakland's rally when a squirrel ran across the field while John Jaso was batting. The squirrel stopped in the middle of the infield before finally jumping into the stands on the third base side and disappearing.
A squirrel also interrupted the game on April 21 at Progressive Field when the Indians defeated Kansas City.
The Indians have lost three straight and five of seven. Cleveland committed three errors and has made a major league-high 43 errors in 43 games.
NOTES: Indians DH Jason Giambi (strained right calf) will likely be activated from the 15-day disabled list Tuesday. The 43-year-old veteran admitted the team is struggling. "I know we're kind of sputtering," Giambi said. "We get that little glimmer and then it kind of falls apart. We have to keep our heads above water until we hit that good winning streak." … 1B Daric Barton, designated for assignment Thursday, cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Sacramento. … Indians LHP T.J. House, recalled from Columbus before the game, made his major league debut, pitching a scoreless ninth. … Athletics 2B Eric Sogard, who is batting .091 (3 for 33) in May, was given the day off.

text: Man Charged With Killing of Teen Seeking Help Theodore Wafer accused of 2nd-degree murder in death of Renisha McBride By Kevin Spak, Newser User Posted Nov 15, 2013 11:54 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (194) (Newser) – The man who shot a 19-year-old in the face after she knocked on his door seeking help after a car accident will be charged with second-degree murder and manslaughter, Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy announced today. Officials are asking Theodore Wafer, 54, to turn himself in, and they expect to arraign him today, the Detroit Free Press reports. "We do not believe he acted in lawful self defense," Worthy said, explaining that such a claim requires a reasonable belief of imminent death or grave bodily harm. Worthy said there were no signs that Renisha McBride tried to force her way into Wafer's home. According to prosecutors, she knocked on a locked front screen door. Wafer then allegedly opened the inner door, and shot her through the screen door. A toxicology report released yesterday indicates that McBride was drunk at the time, with a blood alcohol level of .218, and that there's a "strong possibility" she had marijuana in her system, CBS reports. A lawyer for her family says that shouldn't matter, and that Wafer should have called 911. "Maybe she would have been arrested because she was drunk—but she'd be alive." Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy announces second-degree murder charges against Theodore P. Wafer, 54, of Dearborn Heights, during a news conference in Detroit, Nov. 15, 2013.

My dll have been bigger multiplied up many times than early for some reason. I'm beginning to size up the situation:
- A source hasn't changed.
- Debug information everywhere turned off.
- Dll use package "Pack", but not include in Runtime Packages options.
- I've compared new dll with old version dll thought the instrumentality of PE Explore. In new dll I find out many modules with prefix 'ec' implicitly imported unlike old dll.
- Package "Pack" using ecControls components
- Dll doesn't using explicitly call to ecControls units.
Why ecControls units imported in dll? Have anybody some advice?
