The final chapter in Mercedes Lackey's spellbinding fantasy trilogy!
The Herald-Mage, Vanyel, and his Companion, Yfandes, are alone responsible for saving the once-peaceful kingdom of Valdemar from the forces of a master who wields a dark, forbidding magic. And if either Vanyel or Yfandes falters, both Valdemar and its Herald-Mage must pay the ultimate price.
©1990 Mercedes R. Lackey (P)2012 Audible, Inc.
A favorite of mine. The story of a man that survives, a rough youth and into a love that surmounts all, to the horrible loss of that love, and being given his greatest desire of his youth, before he learned what he really desired. His survival and giving of his life in to selfless acts of honor, through the pain that stays fresh to the finding of a new life, to his death. That sums all three books. This is the final installment of those books. Now take that man's story and put it in a world of magic and magical creatures, of life by the sword, in serving a cause greater then yourself. Amazing story
The narrator was perfect. He brought the characters to life, the world to life and even managed excellent pronunciations of strange words in non existent languages, I wish he narrated all the books. but then perhaps it is the fact that he portrayed Vanyel so well is some of the reason he is so good.
Writer of The Majick Series
"Good Closure"
I would have Mercedes Lackey and the editor go back and remove all of the "ly" words. They greatly distracted me and took away from the story. You will see this same statement in the reviews for the other two books.
It was a very good way to sum things up. Like in life, nothing was perfect but it was good.
I disliked a scene where some mercenaries had captured the last Herald Mage. It was hard to get through but it did elicit a strong reaction from me. Any scene that is written in such a way to get a strong reaction, whether I liked the feelings or not, is a good scene.
Most likely... Depends on how well the first two were made.
Book one was not great. Book two was better and Book Three is certainly the best of the trilogy. Not my favorite but it was entertaining and I looked forward to listening on my commute each morning.
"Awesome series"
The story and the narration. Gregory St. John's voice is perfect for Vanyel.
Other books in the Valdemar series.
The ending.
Toward the end of the book, the action moves back and forth between settings. There should have been a slight pause between these, but there was not. The first few times it happened, I thought I had missed something, but after the narrator did this several times, I figured out what was going on. This is my main criticism of this book. Not that it was written that way, but that there was not a pause to warn the listener that the scene was about to change.
"This is my favorite book ever!"
One of the best love stories of all time. The character development is truly awesome.
"A book most beloved"
It boggles the mind when one thinks about all that Lackey has put into this book and the whole Valdemar series.
"Good overall"
I am writing this review after listening to all three books in this series. I'm glad I waited to review because I have adjusted my ratings from 5 to 4 stars on the overall story. This series is about Vanyel, a Herald Mage. It starts in Book 1 when he is about 16 and ends in Book 3 in his late thirties. This series was written in the 1990s, so I tried to listen to it with that filter. Back then, gay themed YA books were rare and gay themed fantasy book even rarer. Overall I really enjoyed this series. There were plot holes and misaligned time frames, but overall it is worth a listen. The narrator does a great job; 5 stars for him.
Vanyel was put through the ringer in the first book (his life as a teenager) and his growth and recovery in the 2nd book to become the hero of the land was great. What I didn't understand was why the author built Vanyel up as a hero for 80% of the series, only to take some of that away from him at the end of the 3rd book. There was some violence and violations in the 3rd book that doesn't seem to serve any purpose to the story and I don't believe it was appropriate for a YA book. In reaction to this violence Vanyel inadvertently kills innocent people; something that goes against everything he is for the previous two books. Then, the ending seems rushed and there are a bunch of things that remained unanswered. The author kind of gives a non-traditional HEA in the epilogue, but it was still a disappointing conclusion. That said, I'm still glad I got to know Vanyel and went along with him on his journey.
LIfe-long reader, fond of mysteries, scifi, fantasy. Prefer good story-tellers, with interesting premises. Road warrior-so listen a lot!
Well written, with a meaningful take and a ethical consideration. You care for the characters and their growth. Satisfying yet sad.
"Vanyel is an old friend of mine, love this series"
Very high!
Vanyel, of course!
At first, I wasn't sure I'd like the performance. I'd heard Vanyel's voice in my head for years and this wasn't it, but Gregory St. John won me over.
This series is older, but don't overlook it. Vanyel is an amazing character and his journey is wonderful for teens (which I was when I first read it) and adults alike. A very positive gay role model for teens.
just myself
"The best of Valdemar"
This trilogy is my favorite of Valdemar, immediately after come the Winds trilogy and the Oath books plus Kerowyn's By the Sword. It is heartwarming and heartwrenching and deeply roots in your life experience without having to actually live it. Somehow Mercedes Lackey manages this despite too much exposition that could have been used as points of relationship development (i.e. Stef's recollections of his life history that could have been better better used for conversations with Vanyel). Her characters become completely real , except for the villians who are simply evil. Though my literary tastes have become more complex over the years, I still loved listening to these almost as much as the first time I read them many, many years ago (and a couple times since).
The narrator's voice and characterizations were excellent. The only thing that brought a 5 star performance down to 4 stars was a persistent mispronunciation of certain key words and a few English words as well. While they are made up words, it seemed obvious to me that shaych has a ch sound like cheese and not any other breathed gutteral or sh sound; also ashke should be ash-ke not ashk, and I always heard VANyel not vanYEL. While this can be overlooked and the story still enjoyed, I think a bit of research on unfamiliar words could have improved the performance to perfection.

The Lake Tahoe Historical Society will again present one of South Lake Tahoe's most unique fundraising events — the 10th annual Garden Tour on Saturday, July 27 from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
This year's event will showcase the new gardens, fountains and tree carvings at Barton Memorial Hospital as well as nine other stunning gardens around the community.
The beautiful Healing Garden at Barton Memorial Hospital was a gift to the community from Jessica Ledbetter in memory of her parents and sister. The Barton/Ledbetter families have supported both the historical society and the hospital from their beginnings.
Refreshments and lunch, sponsored by Harrah's/Harveys and Barton, are included with the garden tour ticket and will be served on the patio at the hospital.
Tickets are $25 and are available for purchase at the museum, 3058 Lake Tahoe Blvd., or at the four garden centers, Aspen Hollow Nursery, Nel's Garden Center, Sunbasin Landscape and Nursery and Tahoe Outdoor Living all in South Lake Tahoe. All proceeds from the event benefit the Lake Tahoe Historical Society Museum.
Tickets are limited and advance purchase is encouraged.
For more information call the Lake Tahoe Historical Museum at 530-541-5458 or visit laketahoemuseum.org.
In 1968 a group of volunteers gathered artifacts and established a small museum in the city of South Lake Tahoe. In 1983 the museum moved from the log cabin into the former county library where a 2009 remodel offers a fresh, new museum experience. The museum is operated by volunteers with a board of directors elected by members of the Lake Tahoe Historical Society and supported by donations, memberships and fund raisers.

But fellow staffmates of Pettitte sent their congratulations to his son Josh, after he registered a no-hitter for Deer Park high against Boerne Champion. Josh, a senior, is headed to Baylor to play ball next year in college. He struck out 10 while not allowing a single batter to reach base via a hit ball. That led to a proud papa telling everyone at camp, and then they sent out their tweets.

I've always had digestive issues. About 30 minutes after I eat, I get horrible burning lower abdominal cramping that results in a painful, soft bowel movement (gross, sorry) and loose stools may follow. I've always had sudden, unexpected, painful BM's. Just today I was stranded at the mall with my 3-year-old, had to run to the bathroom and then go home without even buying anything because I was in so much pain. I've also always had an irritable uterus and my OB figured I had a bad gallbladder during my first pregnancy, so I had it removed a few months after DS was born. The upper right quadrant abdominal pain has disappeared, but the other symptoms have continued, including the irritable uterus.
I have strong allergies and was tested to start immunotherapy. I was strongly allergic to wheat and dairy, so I'm wondering if my digestive problems are allergies? Is that what Celiac's disease is; allergic reactions to food? I mentioned it again to my OB and he said, "You probably have IBS," and moved onto the next order of business. Does this sound like irritable bowel syndrome or something more serious?
Thanks for reading. I have a feeling that there is more going on than just IBS because it happens at least once a day. I'm thinking about going to the doctor, but I don't know what to say and don't want to waste the money if it's just IBS! I've been consulting Dr. Google and I'm more confused than ever, so I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction to good websites or share personal experiences and knowledge. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

When I first got my arab gelding, he was fairly easy to catch. I know horses can associate work when they see someone coming to get them in the pasture, therefore they will refused to be caught.
My arab is smart and after a few weeks of letting me catch him after I first got him, he started booking it whenever he saw me coming for him in the pasture. One of the fellow boarders suggested treats (and I know this is a bad idea and will only last so long before your horse figures it out) but I became so frustrated with trying to catch my horse that I went to the treat tactic. It worked for about two months, up until yesterday, then my arab started to run from me in the pasture again.
When this all started my trainer told me to start working my horse around the pasture immediately after I got out there and once we made eye contact. So basically I was told to work my horse around the pasture until he got tired enough for me to catch him. My trainer said this gets the horse in the mindset of "She's making me run around the pasture, so perhaps if I give in it'll be less work and easier for me to just be caught." This somewhat makes sense to me... but I don't want to run around the pasture for the rest of my life catching my horse.
Any opinions or ideas?

Picture: Steven Spielberg Women in Film 2007 Crystal and Lucy Awards Beverly Hills, California - 14.06.07
Director Steven Spielberg is planning a new film project to unite children in the middle east.
The Schindler's List film-maker wants to give video cameras to Palestinian and Israeli children for them to film their everyday lives. The two groups will then exchange tapes in a bid to build a better understanding of each other.
He says, "Not dramas, just little documentaries about who they are and what they believe in, who their parents are, where they go to school, what they had to eat, what movies they watch, what CDs they listen to.
"That's the kind of thing that can be effective, I think, in simply making people understand that there aren't as many differences that divide Israelis and Palestinians. Not as human beings anyway."

My top priority will be to seek the evidence needed for our members to engage in optimal clinical practice. We must lobby for the funding required to better understand the cause of communication disorders, as well as their prevention and treatment. We must integrate the electronic health record with clinical outcomes (i.e., the Physician Quality Reporting System) to create a learning health-care system, where outcomes are continuously updated to inform best practice. We must seek better evidence about best practices for our clinicians in the schools, and evaluate the effectiveness of our continuing education programs. In addition to improving our evidence base for clinical practice, we must better assess the efficacy of how we educate and train future clinicians and clinical scientists.

Saving Mr. Banks
It takes more than a spoonful of sugar to sweeten the protagonist in this delightful story
One might imagine that anyone who would devote their life to creating children's entertainment or writing children's literature, would themselves be a bit of a kid at heart. While that is likely true of Walt Disney (the animation giant who built a life-sized model railroad and village that he turned into Disneyland), it is surprisingly untrue of P.L. Travers, author of a series of books featuring Mary Poppins.
These two opposites finally meet after twenty years of negotiations fails to secure Disney the rights to turn Travers' flying nanny into a movie. Walt (played by Tom Hanks) hopes a trip to Los Angeles, and the promise of collaboration with the production team, will woo the Londoner into signing the required legal papers. However, Mrs. Travers (Emma Thompson) is only considering the invitation and lucrative offer because of financial necessity. Still, she is too principled to just sell off her beloved characters. For her to even consider a deal, the film will have to be made to her specific instructions, with none of Disney's magical flourishes, or worse yet—animation.
If anyone involved with the project ever thought the caregiver in the book sounded rather strict (Mary Poppins is described as "practically perfect in every way"), they are about to learn that the fictional character is nothing compared to the woman who penned her. Quibbling over everything from proper grammar to costume colors, Mrs. Travers tries the patience of Disney Studio personnel such as screenplay creator Don DaGradi (Bradley Whitford), and songwriters Robert and Richard Sherman (B.J. Novak and Jason Schwartzman). Even Walt Disney himself can't seem to sweeten her sour disposition.
As the movie depicts this battle of creative titans, glimpses of P.L. Travers' childhood are carefully intercut with the story. Here we learn about a young girl nicknamed Ginty (Annie Rose Buckley), her imaginative but often-irresponsible father (Colin Farrell) and her desperate mother (Ruth Wilson). As this tale of the past unfolds, so do clues to the author's inspiration for her books and possible reasons for her present controlling personality.
Just as one can't assume all producers of juvenile products have playful depositions, parents should be aware that this Disney film about a children's novel being adapted into a kid's movie is really not intended for young viewers. Instead it is a mature look at the impact childhood can have on adulthood, and the recovery that sometimes needs to happen to find peace in old age. Other themes that may be more than little minds wish to wrestle with include disappointments, depression, alcoholism and suicide.
Yet all that heavy content doesn't mean Saving Mr. Banks isn't appropriate for older teens and adults. This beautifully made movie combines superb acting, strong story telling and compelling lessons about growing up, no matter how old we may be. Watching these characters come to terms with their past brings great hope for the future, and offers sweet solace for anyone trying to heal the wounded child within.

Shot as part of the London Project, which will include one shot from each of the 119 London postcodes (more details at [link].uk), this shot is SE21. The park is full of these shelters, and I was looking for a good way to frame one for a moody shot - I finally found this one with an interesting tree and the cloud formation made it all the more interesting. Thanks for looking!

Shamrock Shake
McDonald's cup featuring Uncle O'Grimacey.
|United States
The Shamrock Shake is a seasonal green-dyed mint flavored milkshake dessert sold at McDonald's during March to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
The Shamrock Shake was first introduced in 1970.[1] Rogers Merchandising in Chicago created the shake. Initially, the shake was lemon/lime flavored with vanilla ice cream, lemon/lime sherbet, and vanilla syrup. By 1973, the shake was merely a green colored vanilla shake, eliminating the lemon/lime sherbet. Then in 1983, the shake added mint flavoring and today it is still a mint shake, consisting of mint ice cream base, vanilla syrup, and milk. James Byrne, the executive artist at the firm, used a family recipe for the shake.
Shamrock Shakes are sold at all American[2] and select Canadian stores during the months of February and March,[1] as well as in Ireland.[3]
During the 1980s, McDonald's used the Uncle O'Grimacey character to market Shamrock Shakes, but has since phased it out.
In 1980, McDonald's introduced the Shamrock Sundae which consisted of vanilla ice cream topped with a mint green Shamrock syrup. The product was discontinued after one year due to poor sales.[2]
In popular culture[edit]
- In The Simpsons episode Stop Or My Dog Will Shoot mentioned in the following exchange:
- Chief Wiggum: "I miss Shamrock Shakes, but they ain't coming back till March."
- Lou: "You know, Chief, Shamrock Shakes are just vanilla shakes colored green."
- Chief Wiggum: "Well, I taste the flavor. It's a very mild mint."
- Lou: "Well, maybe 'cause it's a minty color, your mind is fooling your tongue."
- Chief Wiggum: "I know what I taste."
- Eddie: "I gotta go with Chief on this one."
- Lou (sarcastically): "Whoa, there's a big surprise."
- In Bloodhound Gang song Mope referenced in line - Wrote to Mayor McCheese "Send a Shamrock Shake please!"
- Jimmy Fallon bought over 100 Shamrock Shakes for audience members in 2011.[4]

Product Overview
Felix bush recruits frank (the local funeral home director) to host his own funeral.
|Blu-Ray DVD
|Release Date
|Period Piece
Editors Note
|Inspired by the true story of Tennessee recluse Felix "Bush" Breazeale, who planned his funeral while he was still alive, director Aaron Schneider's dramatic period thriller stars Robert Duvall, Bill Murray, Sissy Spacek, and Lucas Black. Few folks have spoken with Felix Bush (Duvall) since he disappeared into the Tennessee woods 40 years ago, and the ones who have don't necessarily have the kindest things to say about him. Gruff, confrontational, and ill-tempered, Felix has been the source of many malicious rumors over the years. Some say he's a cold-hearted killer and his penchant for walking into town with a shotgun, a wild beard, and threadbare clothes doesn't exactly give the impression of a man who seeks to make friends. When Felix walks into Frank Quinn's (Murray) funeral parlor and announces his intentions to throw himself a massive party before he passes away, word quickly spreads through town and anticipation starts to run high. Before long the big day has finally arrived, and Felix surprises everyone by revealing exactly why he shunned society to lead a life of solitude in the deep woods.

|Director Aaron Schneider, working from a script by Chris Provenzano and C. Gaby Mitchell, walks a delicate line between the silly and the sentimental as we taste Bush's cussedness and meet people (Sissy Spacek, Bill Cobbs) who might have gentler memories of him. Schneider lucked out with his cast - two Oscar winners, with Murray's performance feeling for all the world like a best supporting actor nomination. But McRaney makes you forget he was ever a middling TV actor (Major Dad, Simon & Simon) and Murray, despite tossing off lines that play like comebacks he came up with himself, shows a humanity and vulnerability that you'd never those traits were in his bag of tricks. Credit the director. And Duvall, an American Lear not going gently into that good night, reminds us that it will be a sad day indeed for movie fans when it's about time for him to Get Low.

Michigan NCAA seeding looking better and better
Michigan captured the Big Ten title by three games over Michigan State and Wisconsin after both teams finished 12-6 in the conference with Sunday losses. The Badgers' loss at Nebraska should move the Wolverines past them in positioning for seeding, while Virginia's loss to Maryland Sunday also helped.
The Wolverines (23-7) were No. 12 nationally heading into weekend play, but several teams ranked ahead of them lost. In addition to Wisconsin's 77-68 loss at Nebraska and the No. 5 Cavaliers' setback at Maryland:
It's feasible the Wolverines will move past each of these teams in the next poll to No. 7 or 8. Florida and Wichita State seem locks to receive No. 1 seeds, and probably Arizona, but it's not completely out of the question that Michigan - with some breaks - could enter consideration for a one seed with a long run in the Big Ten Tournament.
It starts Friday for U-M, which will face the winner of Thursday's game between Indiana and Illinois at noon. Purdue and Ohio State play Thursday for the right to face No. 4 seed Nebraska, so the Wolverines' run to the tournament final will run through either the Hoosiers or Illini and one of the other three.
Michigan earned a tough split with IU and trounced Illinois this year, swept Nebraska (and was the only team to win in Lincoln), beat Ohio State by 10 on the road and swept Purdue, coming back from 19 down to win in West Lafayette.
The other half of the bracket, meanwhile, will be tough. Iowa will play Northwestern for the right to play Michigan State and will be a favorite, which could set up an interesting quarterfinal. Wisconsin will be heavily favored to beat either Minnesota or Penn State, so the semifinal should also be fun to watch.
Nationally, Michigan fans should root against Duke, Virginia, Villanova, Kansas and Syracuse in their conference tournaments. Should the Wolverines capture a Big Ten Tournament title in addition to a regular season crown it won by three games - and should other pieces fall into place - a one seed isn't out of the question. Lose in the conference quarterfinals, and a three also seems to be in play.
Regardless, the only sweating on Selection Sunday will be which weather to pack for.

Lately LO has started strange habits...Sometimes I'll leave the room and come back and she has her blocks lined in a straight row. Or have a pyramid of bears stacked.Or shoes lined according to color (dark to light) Has anyone experienced this? It's just strange...Is it OCD
I dont know what else to call it but strange...
We love our bread, we love our butter, but most of all we love each other. ~Madeline
1 calls me mama (2/11/08) and I hope the other calls me friend :)
Well, it certainly sounds nice and neat around there! LOL! If it is OCD - we could all stand a little bit of it! :) If it's worring you, be sure to discuss it with your pediatrician at her 3 year check up... I'd be interested to know what he/she says about it. My LO is NOT being so neat and organized, but I'm sure they are all a little different at this point. Good luck!
i have noticed the same thing lately, he is taking his hot wheels and lining them up in a straight line...or anything else he has several of. i just figured he was OCD like his mommy i think it is cute! looks like they are learning to me!!
Is she in preschool? Or does she watch Nick Jr or Sesame Street often? What she's doing is called an AB Pattern and it's commonly taught to children in preschool through 1st or 2nd grade as a basic math concept.
DD loves lining things up too. She likes to take markers and crayons and make them into big shapes on the floor or make patterns with her blocks. I wouldn't be overly concerned unless he's getting really preoccupied with it and won't allow them to be taken apart or put away.
From what I have read and heard (from several friends whose education included child psychology/development), it is completely normal for toddlers between 18 mth - 3 yrs to be obsessed with order, repetition, and having things just so (some kind of pattern). When I was pregnant with my second (they are 17 mths apart), the pediatrician even told me to expect extra 'trouble' since my older will be entering that stage, arranging toys and his belongings the way he likes...only to have a younger sibling come along and destroy it (you know how they like to dismantle everything in the first year or so).
vProud momma to J (2/08) and B (7/09), happily married to S (3/05)v
My ods did this, and he is faaaaaarrrrrrr from ocd. I don't remember my girls doing it so much. My littlest one is doing it now. He will line up something, and then show it off like he did some great feat
Jun '00 ds -- Nov '02 dd -- Jun '05 dd -- Feb '08 ds
Heh, my son loves to "organize" and "sort" things. I don't think it's really OCD at this age. I think it's just learning that certain things go together. Nothing to worry about!
* Kelly loves Ed: Married 11-21-05 * Mommy to Lucas Edward 2-21-08 (6 weeks premature) and Adam Henry 4-23-11
totally normal. my child does this as well and has for a few months now. she is always calling me or DH over to look at her "tower"...whether it is out of blocks, cups, toys whatever. She also loves to put things in groups according to colors.
My child psych/development book says this is completely normal at their age but like a pp said, if it concerns you, ask your ped.

Thanks so much ladies :D Its a relief to know others have gone through this as well. I will take your advice and bring up the topic at her next appt.

moogmemory is a solo synthesizer show, with live moving image projections by Michael England, centered around the the legendary Memorymoog analogue synthesizer (or, more precisely a Lintronics Advanced Memorymoog (LAMM) – as modified by Rudi Linhard), along with other analogue instruments. This project is inspired by the pioneering work of Annette Peacock and Paul Bley (as The Bley/Peacock Synthesizer Show). Following on in a similar vein from the stillness of Montauk Variations, moogmemory is an attempt to engage with voltage-controlled circuitry and to let the sounds speak for themselves, as far as possible. Expect a sonic journey through voltage-controlled circuitry, warm, full bass textures, mesmeric repetition, and the pulsating frequencies that only voltage-controlled oscillators can produce (and perhaps, even a gentle nod towards the 80s soundtracks of John Carpenter films).
moogmemory is due for release on The Leaf Label in 2015.

If I was to go work for another team inside Microsoft right now, I think the team I'd be most tempted to work for is the Outlook team.
Why?—because in my opinion at least, Outlook is the next big emerging developer platform at Microsoft and building developer platforms is fun and exciting. Think about how many millions of people spend their days "in Outlook". If I were in a corporation building a solution for these people, I'd want to build it in a way that's tightly integrated with Outlook. I'd want to present corporate data there, track tasks there, integrate with contact data, integrate with calendaring, etc. I'd want to turn Outlook into the portal where my users get stuff done.
Certainly this is already being done today—I love plugins like NewsGator (written in managed code baby!) that integrate with Outlook. The activity in this area is amazing. For example, try watching the slipstick.com feed for a while and see all the cool third party software being developed for Outlook.
The problem is that integrating with Outlook is harder than it should be. Despite this, people are navigating around the occasional land mines in Outlook add-ins development and getting it done anyway. The Outlook team knows this and they are working to improve this—so this is the part where I give unsolicited advice. This advice is not really just specific to Outlook but most of it is applicable to any application that wants to be the next emerging platform and attract developers to it.
First a little background. In a previous lifetime, I worked on a product called iGrafx FlowCharter Professional at a company called Micrografx (now owned by Corel). A big part of my job was to work on rewriting the object model of FlowCharter from scratch. We also created a set of lower level APIs to let you deeply integrate add-ins into the program—and we enabled all sorts of cool things like providing your own alternate views of the diagramming space, creating new app level windows, you name it. Once we shipped, we received the Visual Basic programmer's Journal Readers Choice Award for our efforts which I was pretty happy about. As a result of that effort and my subsequent work on VBA, VSA, and VSTO I've encountered some ideas that can help you when trying to be a platform:
- At an individual shape level—I want to handle the click event for just this shape
- At a "shape type" level—I want to handle the click event for all shapes that are squares.
- At a document level—I want to handle the click event for all shapes in this document.
- At a document type level—I want to handle the click event for all shapes that are in documents of type "organizational chart"
- At an application level—I want to handle the click event for all shapes that are ever created in this application.
And now a caveat for those who are discouraged after reading through all these points—It's OK to start small. Witness the euphoria over OneNote adding a very simple extensibility story. A couple ideas here—find out what developers really want before building everything under the sun (see 2). Instrument your API during development and measure what APIs commonly get used and what APIs almost never get used—the one's that never get used might be ones you can remove and make the development experience simpler. You might find that focusing on 6—building a data focused OM first—will give you more bang for your buck.
Now go out and make your application into the next emerging platform!

Police probe Benson stabbingStaff Report | July 09,2013BENSON — Vermont State Police say they are searching for a Castleton man who is believed to have stabbed a homeowner on Route 22A.
Police say William Tyler, the 36-year-old owner of the home, told police that Tia Maher, 40, stabbed him during an early morning altercation inside the home.
Police didn't describe the altercation, but they said that Tyler arrived at the Castleton Family Health Center at just before 8 a.m. Monday with a single stab wound to his lower abdomen.
Attempts to find Maher have proven unsuccessful and police say they believe he fled the area by boarding a local bus in Rutland with an unknown destination.
Police are seeking to obtain a warrant for his arrest on a felony charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Maher is described as an Asian man with short brown hair and brown eyes. He stands about 5-feet, 10-inches tall and weighs about 170 pounds with a slender build and dark complexion. It's not known what he's wearing but police believe he has injuries to his face, including a swollen right eye.

Wi-LAN introduces the AWE 120-58, a new 12 Mbps advanced wireless Ethernet bridge for use in the 5.8 GHz unlicensed frequency band. The company is also announcing its AWE 120-24, a 12 Mbps advanced wireless Ethernet bridge that operates in the 2.4 GHz unlicensed frequency band. Both products support point-to-multipoint, point-to-point and backhaul applications.
The bridges can be used to build and extend communication infrastructures. Unlike ordinary bridges that provide basic data transfer, Wi-LAN's advanced wireless Ethernet bridges offer enhanced functionality with "smart" features, improving data and network management capabilities. They're built with the company's patented Multi-code Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (MC-DSSS) technology, which supports constant service over distance through increased data rates, enhanced reliability and cost-effective performance. Built-in data scrambling also prevents unwanted eavesdropping. Wi-LAN, Inc., Clagary, Canada, www.wi-lan.com.

Although any astute mystery reader will figure out whodunit relatively quickly, America's favorite weatherman and his friend have penned a funny story with just enough obvious pop culture references to make the reader feel in the know. The characters are "typey" without being over the top, and the protagonist is completely likable.
Against his better judgment, Chef Billy Blessing has returned to Los Angeles to do voice-overs for his network's new nighttime talk show. When the host of the show is murdered, Billy is convinced the murder has something to do with the unsolved killing of a friend of Billy's 22 years ago. To further complicate matters, the one person who wants Billy to help solve the murder is Billy's favorite suspect from the first one — a man who threatened to kill Billy if he didn't leave LA. (DELACORTE, Dec., 304 pp., $26.00)

NBA Midwest Division: Not a rosy outlook
The NBA's Midwest Division includes teams that thrived in another decade. Milwaukee in the '70s. Chicago in the '90s. Indiana in the '70s, as part of the old ABA. Cleveland in the '00s, when it had LeBron. Detroit in the '00s (and the '80s and '90s). And nothing in the current payroll analysis of each team suggests the '10s will start being kind to the Midwest.
We continue our series on how each team, division by division, is impacted by contract status. A few items to remember: the luxury tax threshold for 2014-15 is expected to be $77 million, so teams will try to stay under that amount. Also, the terms for contracts can be confusing. Player option means a player can end the contract. Team option means the franchise can end the contract. Qualifying offer means a team must make that offer to a player by June 30, in which case he can accept the offer for a one-year contract and become an unrestricted free agent the next year or reject the offer and become a restricted free agent. Teams can retain their restricted free agents by matching the offer of any other team.
The salaries listed below are from hoopshype.com:
Under contract: Derrick Rose $18.9M, Carlos Boozer $16.8M, Joakim Noah $12.2M, Taj Gibson $8M, Mike Dunleavy $3M, Jimmy Butler $2.1M, Tony Snell $1.5M, Greg Smith $0.95M.
Free agent: Kirk Hinrich *$4.05M, Nazr Mohammed *$1.4M, D.J. Augustin *$0.6M, Mike James *$0.5M, Jimmer Fredette *$0.2M, Louis Amundson *$0.1M, Ronnie Brewer *$0.1M. *2013-14 salary.
2014-15 Salary commitments: $63.4M.
Outlook: The Bulls have a ton of holes and not a lot of salary space. Carlos Boozer could be amnestied, which would help a lot.
Under contract: Kyrie Irving $7.5M, Jarrett Jack $6.3M, Anthony Bennett $5.6M, Tristan Thompson $5.4M, Dion Waiters $4.1M, Tyler Zeller $1.7M, Sergey Karasev $1.5M.
Team option: Anderson Varejao $9.8, Alonzo Gee $3.25M, Scotty Hopson $2.45M.
Free agent: Luol Deng *$14.3M, Spencer Hawes *$6.5M, C.J. Miles *$2.25M, Matthew Dellavedova *0.5M, Carrick Felix *$0.5M. *2013-14 salary.
2014-15 Salary commitments: $32M.
Outlook: Interesting. The Cavs have another No. 1 overall draft pick, lots of rebuilding optionsand some young talent. If they screw this up, that's on them. Not the system, not LeBron, not Mike Brown. Them.
Under contract: Josh Smith $14M, Brandon Jennings $8M, Will Bynum $2.9M, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope $2.8M, Andre Drummond $2.6M, Gigi Datome $1.75M, Kyle Singler $1.1M, Tony Mitchell $0.8M, Peyton Silva $0.8M.
Team option: Chauncey Billups $2.5M, Josh Harrellson $0.95M.
Player option: Jonas Jerebko $4.5M.
Qualifying offer: Greg Monroe $5.5M.
Free agents: Charlie Villanueva *$8.5M, Rodney Stuckey *$8.5M. *2013-14 salary.
2014-15 Salary commitments: $39.2M including player option; $34.7M not including player option.
Outlook: Not bad. The Pistons have a new mastermind in Stan Van Gundy, and he's got some young talent to go with some cap space.
Under contract: Paul George $15.8M, Roy Hibbert $14.9M, David West $12M, George Hill $8M, Luis Scola $4.5M, Ian Mahinmi $4M, Chris Copeland $13.1M, C.J. Watson $2.1M, Solomon Hill $1.3M.
Team option: Donald Sloan $0.95M.
Qualifying offer: Evan Turner $8.7M.
Free agent: Lavoy Allen *$3.1M, Rasual Butler *$1.4M, Andrew Bynum $1M, Lance Stephenson $1M. *2013-14 salary.
2014-15 Salary commitments: $65.7M.
Outlook: Stephenson's free agency has Indiana in flux. If Stephenson doesn't re-sign, he'll need to be replaced. The Pacers don't have a lot of salary space, but they don't have a lot of holes, either.
Under contract: Larry Sanders $11M, O.J. Mayo $8M, Ersan Ilyasova $7.9M, Zaza Pachulia $5.2M, Brandon Knight $3.75M, Carlos Delfino $3.25M, John Henson $2M, Giannis Antetokounmpo $1.8M.
Team option: Khris Middleton $0.9M.
Qualifying offer: Ekpe Udoh $6M.
Free agent: Ramon Sessions *$5M, Jeff Adrien *$0.9M, Miroslav Raduljica *$0.5M, Nate Wolters *$0.5M, Chris Wright *$0.1M. *2013-14 salary.
2014-15 Salary commitment: $43M.
Outlook: Lots of money to spend, but who will take it? The Bucks have some decent players but no sign of a star. Maybe the draft will help.

Gusty winds, hot weather and dry conditions led officials Friday to issue a fire warning.
With winds of 25 mph and gusts of up to 40 mph expected in some areas combined with low humidity, the National Weather Service issued a red-flag warning expected to last until 6 p.m. tonight.
"It means if we do get a fire, it will move rapidly," Orange County Fire Authority Capt. Steve Concialdi said.
Local fire crews will be on heightened alert, and Orange County Sheriff's Department deputies will increase patrols in the county's canyon and brush areas, authorities said.
Winds are expected to be lighter tonight and Sunday, but humidity will remain low and the dry conditions will continue.
The OCFA plans to hold a previously scheduled evacuation drill in the Cowan Heights/Lemon Heights area from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. today. Residents involved in the drill will be issued an "evacuation order" and sent to an evacuation center at Tustin High School.
Fire officials say tips on preventing, preparing for and reacting to wildfires are available at readysetgooc.org.

Well, this is it. The world's eyes have been on the Copenhagen conference for over a week now. World leaders are arriving now and final negotiations are taking place in the lead up to tomorrow's conclusion of the conference. Publicly, emissions targets have changed little from the proposals made leading up to the meeting. Many leaders are trying to lower expectations, while protests and demands by leaders of third world nations are increasing.
There have been protests around the world, including large ones in Copenhagen itself, both throughout the city and within the conference centre. Despite this, however, some countries, especially Canada and the US, continue to be impediments to a strong and fair deal. Most developing countries are taking a united stance, though some dirty dealings are attempting to split African unity. This type of divide and conquer strategy needs to be resisted, especially by countries that will most dramatically feel the consequences of global warming.
The outcome of this conference is very important and the results could have a major impact on the future of the planet, as well as the strategies and tactics that will be needed to fight climate change. There appears to be three likely outcomes at this point. One, a deal could simply collapse, with no major agreements being made, and at best, perhaps a commitment to try again next year. This would obviously be a disaster.
Second, a strong and fair agreement could be reached. There is no possibility that even a relatively strong agreement will go far enough in reducing emissions, in terms of actually matching what the latest scientific data says is necessary. Still, with a good starting point, we will at least have something to build on, and efforts can be made to quickly tighten up targets in the near future.
The third possibility is perhaps even worse than if the talks were to collapse. A very weak deal could be signed, with poor targets, little funding for third world countries, and plenty of loopholes. A deal like this, with the US and Canada committing only to 3 or 4 percent reductions, would not only be disastrous for the environment, it might prevent any further progress in the next decade. We would be locked into a scenario where global warming would be permitted to seriously escalate.
Whatever the outcome, if there is not a strong deal that can be built upon, this will likely have a significant impact on the future strategy of activists and developing nations. If working within the system and within the rules doesn't work, other approaches will be needed. If the US and other Western countries do not agree to voluntarily reduce emissions significantly, other measures will be needed to pressure or force them to do so.

Red bellied piranhas and pleco?
My friend has a 15inch pleco that he needs to be rehomed. I have 4 red bellies in a 55 gallon, and I was wondering on what your opinion was on putting him in there. It sounds crazy, but their not that aggressive, their actually scardy cats when it comes to bigger things like my hand haha! I know somebody that has 2 in a 40 gallon, and he has 2 algae eaters and they don't bug them since they don't usually free swim through the middle of the tank you know. They are defiantly always well fed too.
I was just wondering if anybody had an opinion on this.
You have to increase the filtration capacity if you attempt to add the pleco. It's a matter of trying if both will work or not although they shouldn't be bothering the plec.
Red-bellied piranhas are not cichlids. They're characins. I moved your thread here as it covers both fish instead of one.
Good luck.:)
Oh thank you! I actually have two 70gallon filters running, do you think that would be enough for them? Im fully aware of how much waste plecos
put on in a tank! I have seen the bottom of his tank and all it looks like is pleco poop in the corners untill he sucks it out. lol!
piranhas in a group like that shouldn't mess with the pleco. It's when piranhas are singled out alone in a tank by themselves when they get really aggressive.
Ohh k gotcha, they chase each other around a little bit but never nothing real agressive. They can tear up some worms though lol.

Nibal Fetouni | янв 28, 2014 | Middle East North Africa: Oman For two consecutive days in December, nine Special Olympics Middle East-North Africa programs joined an Athlete Leadership Program workshop The Special Olympics programs in Egypt, Morocco, Libya, Jordan, Tunisia, the Kingdom of Saudi Araiba, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Oman. Special Olympics Oman was the hosting program with 30 participants. The focus on the first day, 22 December, was on team-building and skills development, and Day 2's focus was on public speaking skills development. Through out the two-day workshop, interactive exercises were offered to reveal the best there is in our athletes. Two speakers were invited to discuss leadership and healthy nutrition. Athletes explained that their main concerns are to be financially independent, to excel in sports, to improve self confidence and to take part in international events. Participants were appreciative of the sharing of best practices and interaction with each other and the presenters. They would have preferred an extended period to benefit more from the overall sessions. Back home similar workshops will be planned.

text: I have to build a solar powered car that will either a) travel a distance of 10 meters in the least time . or b) climb a meter on the stepest ramp possible. I am not sure which one would be easier to accomplish or what materials to use. I am also wondering how exactly i am going to build this thing. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
