"Suddenly there was no work. All the shrimp were shipped north, tortillas became too expensive to eat, and people started to go hungry. We told you change was bad, the old-timers croaked.
Nobody had heard of the term immigration. Migration, to them, was when the tuna and the whales cruised up the coast, or when Guacamaya parrots flew up from the south. Traditionalists voted to revoke electricity, but it was far too late for that. No woman in town would give up her refrigerator, her electric fan, or her electric iron. So the men started to go to el norte. Nobody knew what to say. Nobody knew what to do. The modern era had somehow passed Tres Camarones by, but this new storm had found a way to siphon its men away. out of their beds and into the next century, into a land far away." —Into the Beautiful North
This passage from the opening pages of Luis Urrea's Into the Beautiful North paints a picture of a Mexican village not unlike one we might read about in today's news. And for the fictitious Tres Camarones, there is the added presence of drug bandits who are threatening to take over the village with corruption, violence and greed; also sadly true to life. This is the setting from which Nayeli, a 19-year old girl, born and raised in Tres Camarones, sets out in search of her father and other men who will come back home to repopulate and defend their village.
And for the next three months, this will become our story as well.
A dedicated group of volunteers has helped Kalamazoo Public Library plan an exciting and meaningful lineup of Reading Together events that center on three far-reaching themes: The Book as Literature, The Culture of Mexico, and Immigration. After reading the book, we believe participating in these programs will provide several ways to process and reflect.
Today we bring you the enhanced Reading Together website, complete with a full calendar of events, additional resources, and more information about those who have contributed to this planning process. We welcome your reactions and your feedback, and we invite you to come back often.

At least 50 people from Kilimatinde, Saranda, Sasajila and Makasuku villages in Manyoni District were recently trained on how to practice modern beekeeping under a World Vision agricultural development programme.
based at Kilimatinde village so that they can raise value of honey and bee-wax production within the country.
Edwin Meela, beekeeping extension officer for Manyoni District Council said in an interview on Friday that among those trained were 40 are farmers and beekeepers from the villages while the other 10 were students of Amani Girls' Secondary School in the region.
The three-day training, conducted from April 20, was facilitated by experts from Manyoni District Council.
The World Vision ADP decided to support the villagers in terms of training after observing that the farmers and beekeepers have very low skills on modern beekeeping techniques, honey harvesting, handling, post-harvest processing and storage, he said.
"As trainers we have decide to train the villagers so that they can increase the value of honey and beeswax, generate more incomes, create job opportunities for women and youths in rural areas, increase quality and safety of honey and beeswax as well as help them to improve their livelihood," he noted.
Through the World Vision support, he said, revenue collection from honey and beeswax is expecting to double.
Apart from that, the World Vision-Agricultural Development Programme has vowed to provide modern hives to them so that they can start to engage in beekeeping as well as produce quality honey and beeswax, he said.
Tanzanian honey and beeswax are currently described to be of high quality at sources, but due to poor harvesting techniques and post-harvesting processing and storage, the products reaching the market are said to be of poorer quality.
The present production of honey of 5,000 tonnes could easily be raised tenfold if the production process was modernized, he said.

Officials say Ocala teen crashed into car while drunk, drove away
Published: Wednesday, January 1, 2014 at 6:04 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 1, 2014 at 6:04 p.m.
An 18-year-old Ocala woman was arrested early Wednesday and charged with DUI and hit-and-run after crashing into another car and driving away, court records say.
Cassidy Nichole Beller was driving a 2003 Nissan west along State Road 40 near Northwest 110th Avenue shortly before 2 a.m. when she drifted into the eastbound lane and struck a 2003 Dodge driven by Bryan Cohen, according to a Florida Highway Patrol report.
Beller continued driving, and Cohen, who apparently was not hurt, followed her car until she pulled into a gas station about a half-mile down the road, the report stated.
At the gas station, Beller stood outside the vehicle over an 18-year-old woman who was lying on the ground. The woman was a passenger in Beller's car and had been vomiting both inside and outside the vehicle.
Beller failed field sobriety tests administered by FHP Cpl. Susan Barge.
Beller told the trooper that she had been drinking shots of vodka at the home of a friend, whose parents had furnished the alcohol.
She also told Barge that she crashed into Cohen's car because the passenger was throwing up and she didn't know what to do. She also didn't know why she didn't stop immediately after the wreck.
Beller was charged with four misdemeanor counts, including DUI, hit-and-run, and hit-and-run with property damage. She was being held at the Marion County jail on Wednesday on $2,000 bail.

Cranial Ultrasound
Test Overview
Cranial ultrasound uses reflected sound waves to produce pictures of the brain and the inner fluid chambers (ventricles) through which cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flows. This test is most commonly done on babies to evaluate complications of premature birth. In adults, cranial ultrasound may be done to visualize brain masses during brain surgery.
Ultrasound waves cannot pass through bones, so an ultrasound to evaluate the brain cannot be done after the bones of the skull (cranium) have grown together. Cranial ultrasound can be done on babies before the bones of the skull have grown together or on adults after the skull has been surgically opened. It may be used to evaluate problems in the brain and ventricles in babies up to about 18 months old.
Cranial ultrasound for babies
Complications of premature birth include periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and bleeding in the brain, including intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). PVL is a condition in which the brain tissue around the ventricles is damaged, possibly from decreased oxygen or blood flow to the brain that may have occurred before, during, or after delivery. IVH and PVL increase a baby's risk of developing disabilities that may range from mild learning or gross motor delays to cerebral palsy or an intellectual disability.
IVH is more common in premature babies than in full-term babies. When it occurs, it most commonly develops in the first 3 to 4 days after birth. Most cases of IVH can be detected by cranial ultrasound by the first week after delivery. In contrast, PVL can take several weeks to detect. For this reason, cranial ultrasound may be repeated 4 to 8 weeks after delivery if PVL is suspected. Several cranial ultrasound tests may be done to evaluate areas in the brain.
Cranial ultrasound may also be done to evaluate a baby's large or increasing head size, detect infection in or around the brain (such as from encephalitis or meningitis), or screen for brain problems that are present from birth (such as congenital hydrocephalus).
Cranial ultrasound for adults
Cranial ultrasound may be done on an adult to help locate a brain mass. Because cranial ultrasound cannot be done after the skull bones have fused, it is only done after the skull has been surgically opened during brain surgery.
Why It Is Done
In babies, cranial ultrasound usually is only done:
- As part of routine screening of babies born prematurely to detect bleeding in the brain, such as intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH).
- To monitor any complications or to look for periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). IVH and PVL increase a baby's risk of developing disabilities, including cerebral palsy or an intellectual disability.
- To screen for brain problems that may be present from birth (such as congenital hydrocephalus).
- To evaluate an enlarging head.
- To look for infection or abnormal growths in or around the brain.
In adults, cranial ultrasound may be done during brain surgery to help locate a brain mass.
How To Prepare
No special preparation is required before having this test.
If an older baby is having the test, it may help to have the baby be a little hungry. The baby can be fed during the test, which will help the baby to be comforted and to hold still during the test.
How It Is Done
This test is done by a doctor who specializes in interpreting imaging tests (radiologist) or by an ultrasound technologist (sonographer) who is supervised by a radiologist. For a baby, cranial ultrasound may be done at your baby's bedside in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). With the baby lying on his or her back, the transducer is moved across the soft spot (fontanelle) on top of the head. You may be asked to hold your baby during the test. Pictures of the brain and inner fluid chambers (ventricles) can be seen on a video monitor.
For an adult, cranial ultrasound is done during brain surgery to help find a brain mass.
A cranial ultrasound usually takes 15 to 30 minutes.
How It Feels
There is usually no discomfort involved with having a cranial ultrasound test. Unless the gel is first warmed to body temperature, it may feel cold when it is put on the skin.
There are no known risks linked with a cranial ultrasound test.
Cranial ultrasound uses reflected sound waves to produce pictures of the brain and the inner fluid chambers (ventricles) through which cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flows.
The size and shape of the brain appear normal.
The size of the brain's inner fluid chambers (ventricles) is normal.
Brain tissue appears normal. No bleeding, suspicious areas (lesions), abnormal growths, or evidence of infection are present.
Bleeding in the brain may be present, which may indicate intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). Repeated tests are often done to check the bleeding or to look for problems caused by the bleeding.
Suspicious areas or lesions around the brain's ventricles may be present. This may be a sign of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), a condition in which the brain tissue around the ventricles is damaged.
The brain and ventricles may be enlarged from the buildup of excessive amounts of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This may point to hydrocephalus.
Abnormal growths may be present, which may point to a tumor or cyst.
Suspicious findings may be present, which may point to encephalitis or meningitis.
What Affects the Test
Reasons you may not be able to have the test or why the results may not be helpful include:
- The baby does not remain still during the test.
- Having an open wound or recent surgical wound in the area being viewed.
What To Think About
- Because ultrasound cannot penetrate bone, cranial ultrasound can be performed only on babies whose skull (cranial) bones have not yet grown together. But duplex Doppler ultrasound can be done to evaluate blood flow in the brain in children and adults. To learn more, see the topic Doppler Ultrasound.
- Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) is not usually detectable until several weeks after birth. For this reason, cranial ultrasound is generally done 4 to 8 weeks after delivery. Because cranial ultrasound may find suspicious areas in the brain that may or may not be PVL, ultrasound testing may be repeated over several weeks. Babies with PVL or intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) may develop normally or may have varying levels of disability, including cerebral palsy or an intellectual disability.
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning may be done instead of cranial ultrasound to evaluate PVL or IVH in babies born prematurely. To learn more, see the topic Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the Head.
- Fetal ultrasound is used during pregnancy to view a developing baby (fetus) and the placenta. To learn more about ultrasound during pregnancy, see the topic Fetal Ultrasound.

Prawn Island is a small island in northern Vice City, between Downtown and Vice Point. The island is divided roughly in half, with the InterGlobal Films studios and some nondescript office/industrial buildings on the south side and several lavish mansions on the north. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, it is the turf of the Sharks. The name is play on the name for a crab, prawn, and the alternate name for porn, pron, due to InterGlobal Films business in the porn industry. The island had a estimated population of 66 as of 1984.
During Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Prawn Island has several beautiful villas, but by the time of GTA: Vice City they have been abandoned, boarded up, and taken over by the Sharks. Prawn Island was the main base of the Mendez Cartel where their mansion was located, and was later abandoned upon the death of their leaders and fallen into the hands of the Sharks.

I knew it was only a question of time before a photo of Miley Cyrus' pussy leaks onto the internet. And here it is. The not so saint Miley didn't learn from celebrities who were all caught wearing no panties in pussy revealing photos when getting in or out of motor vehicles. The paparazzi never sleep and an opportunity like a panty-less flash is something none of them would want to miss. And this is the result.
But as was the case with other pussy flash celebrity photos of the past, Miley Cyrus' snatch also seems undeveloped and shaved like the only men in existence are those who prefer pre pubescent girls. Big roast beef there, but no labia minora.
The best thing about this pussy flash photo is the paparazzi in the background. The "eww, pussy" expression he has on his face is priceless. He can't even see the upskirt. Maybe Miley farted?

Moist Pacific Coast mangroves
Transition estuarine zone between mangroves and moist forest, western coastal Costa Rica. @ C.Michael Hogan
Location and general depiction
Moist Pacific Coast mangroves (in yellow) from Jaco, Costa Rica to Panama's Azuero Peninsula. Source: WWF The moist Pacific Coast ecoregion runs along the coastline of Central America from near the town of Jaco, Costa Rica to the southwestern corner of the Peninsula de Azuero, Panama. This ecoregion encompasses the Gulfo Dulce, the Gulfo de Chiriquí, and the Gulfo de Montijo. This ecoregion's biological diversity results from its coverage of areas lying south of the Gulfo de Nicoya, which represent a transition zone of movement from dry to moist forest, with an abbreviated dry season (only January to March) and more precipitation in the wet season. Many of the streams and rivers, which help create this mangrove ecoregion, flow down from the Talamanca Mountain Range. Because of the resulting high mountain sediment loading, coral reefs are sparse along the Pacific coastal zone of Central America, and thus reef zones are chiefly found offshore near islands. In this region, coral reefs are associated with the mangroves at the Isla del Caño Biological Reserve, seventeen kilometres from the mainland coast near the Térraba-Sierpe Mangrove Reserve. The Térraba-Sierpe, found at the mouths of the Térraba and Sierpe Rivers, is considered a wetland of international importance.
In this ecoregion annual rainfall is higher than in the northern parts of Central America at greater than 2000 millimetres (mm), reaching 3647 mm at the southern end. The dry season is also shorter, averaging less than three months, resulting in better developed mangroves. Between May and December rainfall is influenced by the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), an area of low atmospheric pressure where winds from the northern and southern hemispheres converge. These rains cover the ecoregion, and are considered the rainy season. The dry season occurs from January to April when the colder winds from the north push the ITCZ southward and bring about the upwelling of colder, nutrient-rich waters from below the surface. Small wetlands also function as reserves, slowly releasing water during the dry season. Fine sediment dominates most sites, although sandy backshore areas are also found.
Biodiversity characteristics
The mangrove ecosystems of this ecoregion serve as wildlife refuge, nursery, spawning area, wildlife habitat, nutrient, sediment retention area, and shoreline protection. These features build upon each other to attract many diverse species of wildlife to the ecoregion for the purpose of attaining important resources such as food and shelter. There are numerous special status taxa that are found in the Moist Pacific Coast mangroves ecoregion, denoted variously as Near Threatened (NT), Vulnerable (VU), Endangered (EN), or Critically Endangered (CR).
Because of high moisture availability, the salinity gradient is more moderate than in the more northern ecoregion such as the Southern dry Pacific Coast ecoregion. Resulting mangrove vegetation is mixed with that of marshland species such as Dragonsblood Tree (Pterocarpus officinalis), Campnosperma panamensis, Guinea Bactris (Bactris guineensis), and is adjacent to Yolillo Palm (Raphia taedigera) swamp forest, which provides shelter for White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and Mantled Howler Monkeys (Alouatta palliata). Mangrove tree and shrub taxa include Red Mangrove (Rhizophora mangle), Mangle Caballero (R. harrisonii) R. racemosa (up to 45 metres in canopy height), Black Mangrove (Avicennia germinans) and Mangle Salado (A. bicolor), a mangrove tree restricted to the Pacific coastline of Mesoamerica.
Other mangrove species found in the ecoregion are: White Racemosa (Laguncularia racemosa) and Tea Mangrove (Pelliciera rhizophorae), the latter tree requiring some component of freshwater influx into the habitat. A. germinans is also a restricted range tree, occurring strictly in the Costa Rican and Panamanian part of this ecoregion, and stretching slightly into northwestern Colombia. Dominant species change modestly in the southern more humid area of Costa Rica, where P. rhizoporae and R. racemosa thrive. Some other plantlife, which grows in association with mangrove species, is the fern Golden Leatherfern (Acrostichum aureum) and the trumpet tree Mangle Marica (Tabebuia palustris VU).
Two endemic birds listed by IUCN as threatened in conservation status are found in the mangroves of this ecoregion, one being the Mangrove Hummingbird (Amazilia boucardi EN), whose favourite flower is the Tea Mangrove (Pelliciera rhizophorae), the sole mangrove plant pollinated by a vertebrate. Another endemic avian species to the ecoregion is the Yellow-billed Cotinga (Carpodectes antoniae EN). Other birds clearly associated with the mangrove habitat include Roseate Spoonbill (Ajaia ajaja), Gray-necked Wood Rail (Aramides cajanea), Rufous-necked Wood Rail (A. axillaris), Mangrove Black-hawk (Buteogallus anthracinus subtilis),Striated Heron (Butorides striata), Muscovy Duck (Cairina moschata), Boat-billed Heron (Cochlearius cochlearius), American White Ibis (Eudocimus albus), Amazon Kingfisher (Chloroceryle amazona), Mangrove Cuckoo (Coccyzus minor), Yellow Warbler (Setophaga petechia), and Black-necked Stilt (Himantopus mexicanus VU) among other avian taxa.
Mammals although not as numerous as birds, include species such as the Lowland Paca (Agouti paca), Mantled Howler Monkey (Alouatta palliata), White-throated Capuchin (Cebus capucinus), Silky Anteater (Cyclopes didactylus), Central American Otter (Lontra longicaudis annectens), White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus), feeds on leaves within A. bicolor and L. racemosa forests. Two raccoons: Northern Raccoon (Procyon lotor) and Crab-eating Raccoon (P. cancrivorus) can be found both on the ground and in the canopy consuming crabs and mollusks. The Mexican Collared Anteater (Tamandua mexicana) is also found in the Moist Pacific Coast mangroves.
Reptiles including the Common Basilisk Lizard (Basiliscus basiliscus), Boa Constrictor (Boa constrictor), American Crocodile (Crocodilus acutus), Spectacled Caiman (Caiman crocodilus), Black Spiny-tailed Iguana (Ctenosaura similis) and Common Green Iguana (Iguana iguana) thrive in this mangrove ecoregion. Reptiles here consume fruits, invertebrates, birds, small mammals and even other smaller reptiles.
Gamboa Worm Salamander. Source: Amphibians of Panama/ EoL Amphibians
There are a number of amphibians in the ecoregion, including the anuran taxa: Almirante Robber Frog (Craugastor talamancae); Chiriqui Glass Frog (Cochranella pulverata); Forrer's Grass Frog (Lithobates forreri), who is found along the Pacific versant, and is at the southern limit of its range in this ecoregion. Example salamanders found in the ecoregion are the Colombian Worm Salamander (Oedipina parvipes) and the Gamboa Worm Salamander (Oedipina complex), a lowland organism that is found in the northern end of its range in the ecoregion.
Ecological status
The widespread and extensive destruction of forests in the defined EBA includes major stands of mangroves. This destruction of mangrove ecosystems has caused a decline in available habitat and the resulting decline in species numbers. Sites with the greatest remaining concentrations of mangroves are: Térraba-Sierpe (17,737 hectares); Estero Damas Palo Seco (2312 hectares); Coto Colorado (875 hactares).
A large area is protected in Costa Rica as Corcovado National Park on the Osa Peninsula. This park is also the largest tract of protected land on the Pacific side of Central America.
Ecological threat profile
In general, the river basins are of high topographic relief (i.e., exhibit steep slopes), have seasonally intense rainfall and highly erodable soils, which makes them prone to erosion caused by agricultural practices, deforestation, and livestock overgrazing. The direct result of such erosion is high sedimentation delivered to surface water bodies, which also brings elevated nutrient loads during the rainy season. Even though mangrove soils are too poor with drainage problems and high salinity and acidity preventing the profitable growth of crops, conversion of these lands to agriculture is an ongoing threat to the ecoregion. Agricultural practises also pose a threat due to the use of agrochemicals such as fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides which runoff into the mangrove ecosystems. Lands converted to agriculture are often subsequently abandoned because of high maintenance costs, and an acceleration of erosion.
Another ecological threat is urban encroachment, particularly near Puntarenas and Quepos, which were built in mangrove areas to begin with. Unregulated mangrove cutting for bark and uncontrolled harvesting of the clam "piangua" Anadara tuberculosa have been a threat at least in the past but the government has established quotas and extraction methods, and is preparing a management plan. Bark collectors have had a large impact on the Terraba range because they felled only the largest and most vigorous Rhizopora trees, which also created significant gaps in the canopy. Charcoal production in the Térraba-Sierpe mangrove reserve accounted for 1911 cubic metres of felled timber in 1987. Other threats according to Spalding include exploitation of mangroves for tannin, fuelwood, timber, and charcoal as well as urban development and oil spills such as the 1986 incident.
Justification of ecoregion delineation
Classification and linework for all mangrove ecoregions in Latin America and the Caribbean Basin follow the results of a mangrove ecoregion workshop and subsequent report. The reader should note that this ecoregion can be considered a subset of the World Wildlife Fund ecoregion termed the Southern Mesoamerican Pacific mangroves, which ecoregion can be considered to subsume the Moist Pacific mangroves and continue northward along the Pacific coast into southern Mexico to Oaxaca.

Preventing Tooth Decay in Young Children
Topic Overview
Tooth decay , called dental caries, is caused by bacteria eating away the outer protective layer (enamel) of a tooth. Help prevent tooth decay in young children by adopting the following healthy habits:
- Take good care of your own teeth and gums. Saliva contains bacteria that cause tooth decay. Keep your own teeth and mouth healthy so you are less likely to transfer these bacteria to your baby. Avoid sharing spoons and other utensils with your baby. Also, don't "clean" your baby's pacifier with your mouth.
- Prevent prolonged contact with sugars in formula and breast milk. Remove a bottle from your baby's mouth before he or she falls asleep. This practice helps prevent mouth bacteria from producing acids that cause baby bottle tooth decay. Also, clean your baby's teeth after feeding, especially at night.
- Be smart about juice. Juice is not part of a healthy diet. Compared to a piece of fruit, fruit juice doesn't have the valuable fiber, it usually has more calories, and it is absorbed differently. Unless the label says that a fruit drink is 100% juice, beware that many fruit drinks are just water, a little juice flavoring, and a lot of added sugar. If you must give juice, water it down. The American Academy of Pediatrics advises no more than 4 fl oz (120 mL) to 6 fl oz (180 mL) of 100% fruit juice a day for children 1 to 6 years old.1 This means ½ cup to ¾ cup.
- Introduce cups for drinking beverages at age 12 months or earlier. By this age, frequent bottle-feedings, especially with juice or other high-sugar liquids, make a child more likely to develop tooth decay. If you are having trouble weaning your baby from a bottle, dilute the liquid with water to make it less tasty. At night, you could fill the bottle with plain water. During the day, offer an empty cup for your child to play with. For more information, see the topic Weaning.
- Provide your older baby or toddler with healthy foods. Give your child nutritious foods, and combine them in ways that help reduce the risk for tooth decay. For example, offer meals that include whole grains, vegetables, and fruits. Mozzarella and other cheeses, yogurt, and milk are good for teeth and make great after-meal snacks. They help clear the mouth of harmful sugars and protect against plaque. Make an effort to rinse or brush your child's teeth after he or she eats high-sugar foods, especially sticky, sweet foods like raisins.
Normal amounts of fluoride added to public water supplies and bottled water are safe for children and adults. If your child needs extra fluoride, your dentist may recommend supplements. Use these supplements only as directed. And keep them out of reach of your child. Too much fluoride can be toxic and can stain a child's teeth.
When your child's first teeth come in, start cleaning them with a soft cloth or gauze pad. As more teeth come in, clean teeth with a soft toothbrush. Because too much fluoride can be toxic and can stain a child's teeth, ask your doctor or dentist if it's okay to use fluoride toothpaste. For more information, see the topic Brushing and Flossing a Child's Teeth.

May 5, 2016
TOKYO (AP) - Toyota is recalling 200,000 vehicles worldwide for a hybrid-system problem and another 169,000 vehicles for an engine bolt defect.
Toyota Motor Corp. spokeswoman Shino Yamada said Wednesday there were no accidents related to either recall.
The first recall is over an inverter in the hybrid system for the Lexus RX400 and the Highlander models overseas, and the Harrier and Kluger hybrids in Japan. Some 141,000 vehicles are being recalled in the U.S., and 15,000 in Japan.
The defect may cause an alarm to go off, and the hybrid may stop running, according to Toyota.
The second involves the Lexus GS350, IS350, Crown and Mark X models, including 106,000 vehicles in North America, and 59,000 vehicles in Japan.
The bolts may loosen, causing the engine to stall, according to Toyota.

VIDEO: Hometown Homecoming; Rams Victorious
Contact: Tom Stoelker
(212) 636-7576
Click here for detailed game coverage of Rams beating Columbia, 52 to 7 to retain Liberty Cup.
It may not have a catchy motto like "Subway Series," but for the past 11 years, the Fordham vs. Columbia Liberty Cup game has been an anomaly in a city where college sports takes a back seat to the majors.
Like the Giants vs. Jets or Yankees vs. Mets, when it comes to Rams vs. Lions, you can only root for one team—even if you graduated from both schools.
"To be honest, I've got to stay true to my undergrad," said Derrick Mayo, Columbia College '02, GBA '10.
Mayo played point guard for the Lions basketball, but he made it to Fordham football games often. He noted that even though both teams hail from New York, Fordham holds an extra home team advantage when it comes to attendance, because the teams' football stadium is actually on the Rose Hill campus. Columbia's Lions have to trek a hundred blocks to get to their athletic fields in Inwood. Though he admitted that when he was an undergraduate, he preferred Fordham's tailgating.

Recently appointed Fordham Trustee John Zizzo, FCRH '69, also a graduate of Columbia Law, said he too suffers little conflict of allegiance; he's solidly in the Fordham camp. Zizzo was the captain of the storied 1968 Rams that went on and bested 100 club teams to capture the National Football Club Championship title—a title that was largely responsible for Fordham going varsity in 1970.
Zizzo said that by 1968, fans yearned for the old time glory of the Lombardi years. Having gone from just playing one game in 1964 to winning national champs in 1968, the team came as something of a shock. With this month's historic wins against
, the old time magic seems to be back.
In the 1960s, Fordham had a reputation of being a scrappy commuter school with mostly working class Italian and Irish students from the city. The fan-base came as much from the neighborhood as it did from the school, Zizzo said. He recalled only one African-American player, the late Granville Leo Stevens, Jr., PHA '70, who would later go on to study at Columbia Law as well.
"Leo would've really been proud to see what the school looks like now," he said.
Zizzo added that as a club team, the Rams weren't able to play against Ivy League Columbia. The real rivalry was between Fordham and the now-defunct Manhattan College football team.
"We wanted desperately to play Columbia, but they would've been embarrassed to get beaten by a club team," he said with a laugh.
Off the field, Zizzo said that Columbia's Ivy League mystique made for a nerve-wracking transition to Columbia Law. He later discovered that his years of Jesuit study (he also attended Brooklyn Prep) more than prepared him for Columbia's intellectual rigor.
"I thought that Columbia would be out of my league," he said. "But just like the football was not out of our league, Columbia's law school was not out of our league."
Michelle Kennedy, FCRH '03, a 2008 graduate of the Columbia School of Continuing Education, agreed that sports are a great leveler. She recalled competing against Columbia's swim team while at Fordham, being awestruck by the campus, and spotting Columbia's Cristina Teuscher, who had already won Olympic gold. Kennedy won Fordham's Claire & Jack Hobbs Award for top student athlete and recently she was named to Fordham's Athletic Hall of Fame.
"When you hit the water you're both the same," said Kennedy. "There really isn't a difference between Ivy or non-Ivy; we're all expected to work hard and study hard."
Kennedy, who was at the first "unofficial" Liberty Cup game back in 2001, said that any notions of Fordham-Columbia rivalry are misplaced—given the origins of the Liberty Cup. The original cup commemorated a game between Fordham and Columbia that was delayed due to the 9/11 attacks. The teams later played on Thanksgiving Day before a crowd of 7,000 fans.
"There was no us against you," said Kennedy.
Having worked in development for Columbia Athletics, Kennedy says she is not taking sides.
"I know both sides of these programs very intimately, so I have a lot of maroon and a lot of blue and white colors," she said. "These kids work so hard its tough to choose!"
Still, Kennedy speaks of a shared tradition that extends well beyond the playing field, something repeated by Mayo, who said he and his colleagues place bets on the Fordham/Columbia game at his office. The losers buy lunch or drinks.
Even though Zizzo is a solid Ram, he said that, among his family, loyalties remain divided. His daughter went to Columbia Graduate School of Nursing, and the two plan to enjoy a friendly rivalry at the big game.
"My daughter is a Columbia football fan," he said. "And we've had a little dichotomy—with her always coming home depressed and me coming home happy," he said.
SEPT. 21 UPDATE: Zizzo went home happy again: Rams beat Columbia 52 to 7 to retain Liberty Cup.

text: Mesenteric arteriography is an examination of the abdominal vessels by using an injection of a contrast medium to help visualize the structures. The test is performed after an endoscopy proves to be inconclusive and cannot locate the source of bleeding in the intestinal system, or other studies prove inadequate in evaluating abnormal growths. It may also be used to evaluate vessel damage after an abdominal trauma.

Hi Xanuri,
I might be interested if my style fits. I work mostly in Photoshop (and/or Illustrator). See my finished maps in my signature.
I am looking to commission someone to make full continents and individual zone maps. I have done some very amateur work on 3 of the 20 zones and combined those zones onto the continent map, however all of this work was done in Photoshop and because of that it is very slow and probably not the best tool to use.
I would like the maps to all be generated in a legitimate mapping software tool with a consistent look and feel. Eventually there will need to be additional continents made, but for now this one needs to be re-done/completed. I can provide all the current map data I created to help redo the three zones and I can provide you the necessary information to help you complete the remaining zones.
I am not sure if this is relevant but once the base maps are completed, I would then like to be able to create height maps (Phase II) so that they can ultimately be translated into a 3D virtual world.
All work done will become my exclusive property, however any and all credit will belong to you and will be published to that respect. If you are interested please let me know ASAP, I will likely want to see a few examples of your work for style and appearance.
Hi Xanuri,
I might be interested if my style fits. I work mostly in Photoshop (and/or Illustrator). See my finished maps in my signature.
My sites: http://www.facebook.com --- http://www.stormring.com --- http://www.fantasymaps.net --- http://www.megatongames.com --- http://www.darktowershop.com
My finished maps: here
I'm interested, it's been a while since I've been in something like this - I personally think some of my styles would fit very well, as they mainly rely on the use of height maps and light-maps.
Two good examples: eViLe-eAgLe's deviantART Gallery Urem Irnar, expanded by ~eViLe-eAgLe on deviantART (Recommend you download the image and look in full res.)
My workflow for Etrenor was based on Wilbur - but since then I've used a combination of tools. Urem Irnar was made with the workflow of photoshop for outline - creating heightmap in geocontrol - back to photoshop for everything else
Anyway, I believe the only style I cannot do, are isometric maps. Those are bloody hard. If you need to contact me, you can do so here, or at my email
Hi Xanuri,
I use some height maps currently on some projects from my original 2d maps. Vue, World machine, 3ds max, Zbrush are some of the 3d programs I use. You may contact me here as well.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (21Alive) – More than 350 people came out to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association during the MDA Muscle Walk to help pay tribute to, and raise funds for, children and adults affected by MDA in the Northeast Indiana area.
The walk was held Sunday afternoon at the IPFW athletic fieldhouse. Organizers say by supporting the MDA Muscle Walk event, people can make an immediate difference in the lives of families served by the association.
"It's important that we raise money for them to help fight with research, help them provide educational services, medical services, things that they need throughout the year but also the biggest thing about Muscle Walk, it's just a day for the families to come together, get to know each other, kind of just meet people in the same level that they are and then just have fun," said April Oberlin, MDA Fundraising Coordinator.
Last year, MDA Muscle Walks nationwide raised more than $6.2 million, and more than $10 million have been raised since the program began in 2011.

An arsonist and sex offender is behind bars, after pleading guilty to the crimes against him. The Beaufort County man is also a former police officer and deputy.
Records show Todd Jarvis, of Bath, is in the Craven Correctional Institution in Vanceboro. The Washington Daily News says he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to between 29 and 36 months in prison.
Jarvis was accused of six arsons in Beaufort County and one in Washington County earlier this year, along with the sex crime against a child.
Jarvis was fired from the Kinston Police Department, and also worked as a sheriff's deputy in Greene County.

At least five people have lost their lives so far, with scores others injured in clashes over grazing land between peasants and herdsmen in Ikwiriri district, the Guardian has learnt.
The clashes are reported to have been aggravated by an excessive increase in the number of cattle in the area, from the originally proposed 50,000 to over 300,000 cattle, a situation the local people blame on corrupt village and district officials who are accused of receiving bribes from pastoralists without due regard to the available area.
The remarks were made by several people interviewed by The Guardian in collaboration with a team from the Legal and Human Rights Centre (LHRC) who had gone to the area to assess the situation following severe clashes which erupted on May 20, this year.
On the material day, Ikwiriri residents took to the street after a peasant, Shamte Seif (80), was reportedly killed by herdsmen following a misunderstanding which erupted due to the herdsmen grazing their cattle in his farm.
Following the killing, hundreds of angry residents roamed the streets and vandalizing property and torching scores of houses, including the homes of three senior police officers. They also slaughtered several head of cattle belonging to pastoralists.
The mob went further and broke into a pharmacy and farming implements shops and vandalized a milk factory and several business premises belonging to herdsmen in the district. Commenting on the issue, a man who identified himself as Haji, said he has been a resident of the area since 1974, adding that many people in their area had customary ownership of most of the land in the area.
He said they were however shocked when the third phase government unilaterally sent hundreds of herdsmen in the area even after they had rejected its proposal to allow them in.
"They wrote a letter requesting for grazing area and we rejected the proposal because the land we have is only enough for farming. We are peasants who depend on the Rufiji River basin for our livelihood," said Haji. He called upon the government to find an alternative area to give to the pastoralists as graze land in order to restore peace in the area, adding, "The number of cattle in the district is simply too high; no wonder there are clashes."
An elderly resident of Ikwiriri town, Mussa Machella, said herdsmen in the area were arrogant and often deliberately sent cattle to graze in their farmers' farms.
"Herdsmen should leave this area to enable us live in peace," he said.
Commenting on the matter, Coast regional police commander Ernest Mangu said there were conflicts due to different interest between herdsmen and peasants.
"Herdsmen in this district are mostly from the Wasukuma tribe and own quite a sizeable number of cattle, some as many as 1,000.
Most of them are arrogant and often send their cattle to graze in farms. The number of cattle in the district is four-fold more than it should ideally be," he said.

Vol State Donors Honored at Ramer Society Dinner
Submitted on September 14, 2010 at 9:03 AM
New members and donors moving up in giving levels were honored at the Hal R. Ramer Society Annual Celebration for Volunteer State Community College.

If you're planning to visit a state prison in North Carolina make sure you leave your cigarettes in the car.
Today 26 more state prisons go tobacco-free. That's for staff, inmates and visitors.
Prisons here in Eastern Carolina that are now smoke-free include Craven, Eastern, Fountain, Greene, Maury, Nash, Neuse, Odom, Pamlico, Pasquotank and Wayne.
Duplin was one of five state prisons that went smoke-free in a pilot project last year.
The Department of Correction says there is no time frame yet on when the rest of the prisons will do the same.
The D.O.C. says it is working to establish cessation training for employees and inmates.

Province: Cyrodiil is a mod for The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind. It aims to create the province of Cyrodiil, also known as the Imperial Province. This creation is based heavily upon the lore describing the region in The First Pocket Guide to the Empire. Many will recognise Cyrodiil as the province in TES4 Oblivion, but you will find that this iteration is vastly different and should provide many new experiences for TES fans.
While many of you know Brina Cross Inn from Oblivion as being a single Inn, here at Province: Cyrodiil we are taking a slightly different approach. With our landmass being considerably larger in scale than Oblivion we decided to expand the area into a full-fledged town. it sits at a strategic crossroad and should serve as a nice stop for weary travelers and tradesmen alike.

Sunday May 4th at 12PM EST (check the countdown clock to confirm timezone difference)
http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to ... aroo&csz=1
Prepare to have at least 2 hours available to play, the tournament might be a little longer than that depending on the number of players.
Double team elimination, if your team loses 2 of 3 games or all of the games in the match you move down to the losers bracket, if your team repeats this again in the tournament you are eliminated.
Braket structure, it will be posted online when the tournament starts. You will be paired against a certain player on the opposing team.
Team GM vs Team Llama
Logress vs Khiruki
Goblin vs Gabotheplaya
Romdeau vs Aoiyami
All players will play at the same time, the team that wins 2 or 3 games are the winners.
Your team needs to have at least 2 players, in the event you only have two players one of you will have to play two games. I suggest getting an alternate for your team in case someone doesn't show.
Each file must contain at least 1 unit with an action skill, an auto skill, a start skill, and an open skill, not all on one unit of course. Example: Holy Knight / Lapierre has a start skill and auto skill, will o' the wisp has an open skill, and folrart charge knight has an action skill. That would be enough to meet the requirements for this rule.
Close skills are optional, but you can only have one unit with this, but not two different units. Example: 3 hell smokes is fine, 3 hell smokes and 1 Lebeau is not fine. However Lebeau can be in your soul skill line up while hell smoke is in your file.
All units with counter skills cannot be used in your file or soul skill line up in this tournament.
You can use as many grimoires as you please as long as your file is fit to the rules above.
Two of your soul skills must have no soul skill, like sea hunter or volcano giant.
Your team name must sound cool.
Sign up Procedures
To sign up, just PM/post in this thread or talk to me in chat. Let me know your team name and members of the team, I suggest every team finds a back up player.
Be sure to send me a picture of your file before the tournament starts so I can make sure it complies. It would be best if one person sends me a picture of all 3 files, or 2 if you can only find one teammate.
If you are having trouble finding teammates I can put you on the participants list as solo and pair you with other solo players to form a team
Teams and solo players
Prizes: Take into consideration that the prizes are split between the team
1st – 150 Gran, 30 Point Cards
2nd- 100 Gran, 20 Point Cards
3rd- 50 Gran, 10 Point Cards
Participation- 2 Point Cards
Host -- 50 Gran, 10 Point Cards

I'm breezing through it at the moment and getting really bored, but I want this game to pick up the difficulty level because despite its ease I'm really enjoying it.
I'm breezing through it at the moment and getting really bored, but I want this game to pick up the difficulty level because despite its ease I'm really enjoying it.
Yeah around 55 you start to get more challenging content but theres still alot more content to be released like sky tower which is pretty challenging and fun.
But yeah up until then the content is pretty easy.
That's a little disappointing. I don't think I'm dedicated enough to get through this easy boring part to get to that point. Might just play it here and there and get there eventually.
Thank you for the information.
This is why I only play PvP-oriented games. If I'm gonna spend a long time on something it needs to have a high skill ceiling.
I already quit this game at lvl 60 due to them releasing content too slowly and b/c you do the same 2/3 instances for exp over and over to 75. It is not worth playing imo
stopped playing recently. It got to the point where I would only do Mt dailies... Then it got to the point where I would only log in for pvp. Now I don't log in anymore period. The game isn't for hardcore players. Very little strategy involved other then dodging the almighty red lines and circles, which th game gives u ample time to do. My class is built around spamming meteor every 2 secs and if you aren't doing this as a wizard, then you ain't playing right. the pvp is a joke because honestly the p2w players will win, since pvping in this game is no different then pvping in a low budget Facebook game. No skill or strat required.

Playing MMO: FFXIV (Balmung)
Waiting On: FFXV, KH3, Tree of Savior, RE:FFVII · Saving For: New Computer
Aura Kingdom's single player content never becomes remotely difficult, or at least not from my experience up to level 52, which is fairly disappointing. That being said, the content aimed at party play is notably harder and helps to balance things out a bit. Still, the game has just come out very recently so there's not yet much in the way of endgame content at the moment and the choice of slogging through some painfully bland and easy quest chains in order to get to a handful of fun party dungeons is entirely up to you.
Personally, I'm holding off on playing again until the next content patch since I simply don't care to completely burn myself out grinding dailies at the moment.

Wetlands as a rich resource
Past human activityWetlands which have survived into modern times often conceal the remains of past human activities, sealed beneath peat, buried in river sediments or sunk beneath the waters of lochs. Because these burial environments are often waterlogged, they can preserve perishable organic materials which are normally lost on drier sites. Much, indeed most, of the tools and equipment of everyday life in ancient times was made of wood, fibre and bone, with other materials such as straw (used for ropes and baskets) also important. So wetland sites can give an unusually complete picture of past human life, and are valued accordingly, especially where the whole landscape, linking wetlands to drylands, can be accessed and interpreted.
Historic Scotland's roleIn Scotland, agricultural changes over the centuries, combined with forestry in more recent times and climate change in both the longer and shorter term, have all conspired to reduce the wetland resource. Historic Scotland is working with several partners to identify and protect key sites, to investigate those which cannot be saved, and to raise the profile of wetland archaeology generally – it as an aspect of Scotland's heritage which is truly world-class, and yet which is surprisingly little-known inside or outside our borders.
