Fredy Alexander
Update on Fredy AlexanderFredy needs more working capital for his agricultural activity. He is starting to plant new corn and bean crops. He needs financial resources for this so that he can cover the cost of buying natural fertilizers and herbicides to apply to the crops. He is requesting a loan to allow him to buy the materials. He will then begin planting in a more ordered way.
The previous loan had a positive effect on his applications of natural fertilizers and herbicides. He managed to have a considerable harvest and paid the rent for the land where he grows his crops. So far he has maintained his production of corn and beans.
Con el préstamo anterior tuvo un efecto positivo en sus aplicaciones de abono y herbicidas, ya que logró tener una cosecha bastante considerable, pagó el alquiler del terreno donde realiza el cultivo y hasta el momento se ha mantenido en la producción de maíz y frijol.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Before PC dumped their old stuff, I made a post about how it could be possible to have real live Pokemon in the world...Yes I still believe that it is possible. Well, I am going to make a shoking conefesion; I have reason to believe that I at least carry Mewtwo DNA...If I am not being transformed into Mewtwo. Either the Govt. or the Aquillian Renegades have done this do me as an expiriment to see if they can successifully use something called genetic resequencing. This sound completly crazy to me...but why do ppl keep teeling me (plus the spirits) that it is true??
Who believes its possible to have real Pokemon?
Who believes that it is possible that ppl can be using genetic resequencing to transform me into Mewtwo?

In the middle of the chaos in Boston, theBoy Scouts of America announced that it would ask its national council board in May to vote to end the ban on openly gay scouts. But the proposed baby step forward with another step not taken could result in no real change at all.
First the baby step. According to The Post, the BSA resolution says that "no youth may be denied membership in the Boy Scouts of America on the basis of sexual orientation or preference alone.†That's great. But it's the word "alone†that troubles me. That's a loophole for chartered organizations to use as a cover for maintaining the status quo.
"Under the new resolution, the Boy Scouts will continue to bar adult leaders 'who are open or avowed homosexuals or who engage in behavior that would become a distraction to the mission of the BSA.'†"Avowed homosexuals� What "behavior†would be a distraction to the mission of the BSA that has to do with being gay? Those who think homosexuality is synonymous with pedophilia are beyond help.
Gay men and lesbians have children participating in BSA. Being active and involved in their sons' activities is vital. For those gay men who were scouts as boys, staying involved is essential to who they are as men, as citizens. Therefore, allowing troops to accept gay scouts only to bar them from leadership once they become adults is no progress at all.

Reviews for
to Z Mysteries - Books A-c
Booklist Monthly Selections - # 1 May 2003
Gr. 2-4. When the skeleton in the school nurse's office disappears, Dink and his friends, Josh and Ruth Rose, try to find the missing bones. At first their only clue is an adult's footprint. Does that mean that one of the teachers at Green Lawn Elementary School is the guilty one? Why does a key suddenly appear with a coded note? The latest in the Stepping Stone easy-to-read A to Z Mysteries series is set in a happy school where the principal, the janitor, the teachers, and the kids are drawn into solving the mystery together. The solution is a bit of a letdown, but Gurney's black-and-white illustrations extend the fun of sleuthing at school, and new readers will enjoy the cozy story, which has just a touch of the shivers. ((Reviewed May 1, 2003)) Copyright 2003 Booklist Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2004 Fall
Umpire Pete confesses to stealing some autographed baseballs, but young sleuths Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose think he's trying to protect someone. Armchair detectives hoping to match wits with the investigating trio will be disappointed that the crime is committed by an out-of-left-field character. The prose is fast paced but pedestrian. Serviceable black-and-white images appear throughout. Copyright 2004 Horn Book Guide Reviews.
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2003 Spring
In [cf2]Quicksand[cf1], friends Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose investigate the theft of a plastic bank being used to collect charitable contributions. In [cf2]Racehorse[cf1], they try to figure out why a champion horse unexpectedly loses a race. The latter story features a stronger plot and more deductive reasoning than most books in this mildly entertaining series. Benign black-and-white illustrations are scattered throughout. [Review covers these A to Z Mysteries titles: [cf2]The Quicksand Question[cf1] and [cf2]The Runaway Racehorse[cf1].] Copyright 2003 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2002 Fall
After a baby panda is snatched from the local zoo, Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose track down the bear and help nab its kidnapper. This latest mystery sticks to the seriesÆ formula, introducing some possible suspects and a few red herrings before nudging the sleuths toward the real culprit. Black-and-white illustrations accompany each chapter. Copyright 2002 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2005 Fall
The last four books in this popular series continue the adventures of amateur detectives--and best friends--Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose. There is no great character development or plotting but enough suspense to keep children reading. The books are illustrated with black-and-white drawings. [Review covers these A to Z Mysteries titles: [cf2]The White Wolf[cf1], [cf2]The X'ed-Out X-ray[cf1], [cf2]The Yellow Yacht[cf1], and [cf2]The Zombie Zone[cf1].] Copyright 2005 Horn Book Guide Reviews.
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2001 Fall
When a thief swipes a lottery ticket worth seven million dollars, Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose brave a snowstorm to round up clues (and dodge red herrings) before finally nabbing the criminal. The lightweight mystery is typical of the series and won't disappoint young detective-fiction buffs. Black-and-white illustrations accompany the text. Copyright 2001 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2005 Spring
Investigative trio Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose wonder if an enigmatic local visitor, Dr. A. Cula, could be a vampire. Illustrated with modest art, this formulaic mystery depends on the absurd likelihood that "Dr. Cula" (actually an actor on vacation) and several townspeople he's never met before would suddenly unite in a conspiracy just to play an elaborate practical joke on the kids. Copyright 2005 Horn Book Guide Reviews.
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2004 Spring
Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose help figure out what has become of money stolen out of an animatronic [cf2]Tyrannosaurus rex[cf1]. The detective trio wind up stuck inside the dinosaur but use their intelligence to get back out. It's formulaic, but the formula still works and will help encourage new readers to keep turning the pages until the mystery is solved. Copyright 2004 Horn Book Guide Reviews.
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2002 Spring
In two mild mysteries, best friends Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose investigate a pair of thefts. A gold nugget that Josh finds in Montana is later stolen. In New York, the kids track down the culprit stealing valuable paintings from an apartment building. The characters are generic and the plots bland, but fans will enjoy these additions to the series. [Review covers these A to Z Mysteries titles: [cf2]The Ninth Nugget[cf1] and [cf2]The Orange Outlaw[cf1].] Copyright 2002 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2000 Spring
In a plot overly familiar to every fan of [cf2]Scooby-Doo[cf1], three kids unmask a ghost hoax to derail a fraudulent real estate deal. Followers of this mystery series will welcome back sleuths Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose, as well as other inhabitants of Green Lawn, but won't find any new contributions to the genre. Pencil sketches illustrate the chapter book.Copyright 2000 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2003 Fall
When the school skeleton model vanishes from the nurse's office, sleuth friends Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose follow clues (a footprint, a key) to track it down. Although tamer than the usual A to Z fare (the culprit is the principal, having an April Fools' Day joke), the formulaic series will still appeal to fans. Benign black-and-white illustrations break up the short, quick chapters. Copyright 2003 Horn Book Guide Reviews
Horn Book Guide Reviews 2000 Fall
Fast-paced, formulaic fare, the [cf2]I[cf1] and [cf2]J[cf1] installments in Roy's alphabetic series find Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose uncovering a counterfeiter's stash on Squaw Island and nabbing a jewel thief in New York City. One-dimensional characters and obvious red herrings (the criminal is never the suspected friend or relative) won't deter undemanding readers in search of a quick mystery fix. Pencil drawings accompany the chapter books. Copyright 2000 Horn Book Guide Reviews
School Library Journal Reviews 2004 October
Gr 1-3-The first of Ron Roy's easy-reader mysteries-The Absent Author, The Bald Bandit, and The Canary Caper (Random)-are included here. Dink, Josh, and Ruth Rose set off on adventures as they deal with a possible author kidnapping, a devious bank robber, and a pet-snatching conspiracy.

School Library Journal Reviews 2003 October
Gr 1-3-The first three of Ron Roy's fun easy-reader mysteries The Absent Author, The Bald Bandit (both Random, 1997), and The Canary Caper (Random, 1998) are included in this first audiobook version of the series. Thoughtful Dink, ever-hungry Josh, and loud-voiced Ruth Rose are off for high adventure as they deal with a possible author-kidnapping, a devious bank robber, and a pet-snatching conspiracy. The stories are just right for transitional readers who are not quite ready for the Boxcar Children mysteries. There are clues to follow, a few red herrings, and friendly supporting adults. The inclusion of a helpful police officer is a nice touch. Attentive listeners should be able to solve the mysteries along with the young detectives. There's enough danger here to give children a delightful shiver, but things never really get out of hand. David Pittu reads the books with energy, individualizing each character and bringing the stories to life. This is a delightful way to introduce young readers to a popular series, and would also make a good listening center in primary grade classrooms.-Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School, Federal Way, WA Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.

Womenomics-in-Action: Opportunities and Challenges Facing Japanese and American Corporations
Thursday, December 3, 2015
n light of an unprecedented global movement to increase the number of women at the board/managerial level, the importance of diversity has moved Japan and other nations to implement similar women's empowerment programs. In the case of Japan, the Abe administration made one of its primary goals to increase the proportion of women at the board/managerial level up to 30% by 2020. With the movement for women's equality in the workplace in full swing, we bring together a panel of Japanese and American experts to examine the successes and challenges of corporate initiatives with the intent of fostering women's empowerment and engagement in the U.S. and Japan...

Will 2012 Be the Year of Kevin Durant?
Kevin Durant is officially a beast. We can all agree on that. But what we cannot all agree on is his place as a scorer in the NBA. Some people don't even think he's the best player on his own team (not referring to you, Thabo Sefolosha). Let's take a look at Mr. Durant's short season and where he may or may not end up.
As of this writing, the Oklahoma City Thunder are undefeated on the heels of KD's early 27.4 PPG, second only to LeBron James' gaudy 29.6 PPG. Durant's most dramatic points of the season came on a buzzer-beating game-winning deep 3 against the defending champion Dallas Mavericks. Perhaps the most impressive part of that performance is that Durant recognized he missed an assignment on the defensive end, and was determined to make amends. That's the kind of player who brings in banners, and I think Durant will raise a few before his career is all said and done.
The West is a-changin', and with that recognition comes a pretty strong power shift. Once the Chris Paul-to-the-Lakers trade was hijacked by David Stern, the West became an open field. The Lakers are getting old, Phil Jackson and Lamar Odom are gone, and they now have a pissed off Pau Gasol (who's very piss-offable). The Mavericks are not looking like a team that's primed to repeat in the early going (getting smacked down on the night you raise your flag – never a good sign), and the Clippers appear to be a season or two away from making real noise. Could we be on the verge of a Thunder vs. Heat championship run that rivals Lakers vs. Celtics?
Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself. In the interim, a few additional questions regarding Durant come to mind:
1.) 30 Points Per game?: The first question I asked myself (hey, it's my column) was whether Kevin Durant could finish the season with a scoring average of over 30 PPG? Well, he's already done it once in 2009-2010, when he won his first of two straight scoring titles. Perhaps as impressively that year, Durant was the first person to average over 30 while playing all 82 games since Michael Jordan accomplished that feat in 1995-1996. Pretty good company to be in, and I'm not referring to the fact that Jordan just got engaged to a model.
Last year KD's scoring dropped significantly to 27.7 PPG as Russell Westbrook took over some more of the scoring. So far this year Westbrook's points are down as James Harden has taken some more of the burden over, but that will probably fix itself over the season. Some people think there's a bit of an "alpha dog" issue with OKC – but I don't buy into it. Westbrook is a great basketball player, but Durant will be an ALL-TIME great. For as long as their together, Westbrook's career numbers will be tied to the fact that he gets to feed #35 and gets a few more open shots because he's on the floor. End of controversy.
So back to my original question – will Durant finish with 30 PPG? I actually think he will. Durant is playing out of his mind right now, and the shortened season allows an easier path to maintain such a high average. That being said – the schedule is a grind with so few days off, but Durant is young and rarely gets hurt – expect a huge scoring season out of him.
2.) Scoring Title?: The obvious follow-up question is whether Durant will win the scoring title in 2012? As I mentioned earlier, right now he's trailing LeBron who has already proven that he could win a scoring title (albeit in Cleveland). So let's say LeBron, who is clearly on a mission, is Durant's biggest competition for the scoring title (Sorry, 'Melo). While Durant may lose points to Westbrook and even Harden, LeBron will lose more to Wade and Bosh. LeBron also has not attempted a single 3-pointer this season, which means Durant has a scoring opportunity that James does not. Finally, James' role was defined by the fact that Friday night he was throwing the inbounds pass to Wade for a critical game winner rather than taking the shot himself– that spoke volumes to me. Durant wins the scoring title.
3.) Championship?: But does Durant win the only title that should matter – the one that comes with the Larry O'Brien trophy (and not the trophy tattooed on Jason Terry)? Durant's future looks better than Kendrick Perkins at the beach, but I still think the Thunder is a year away from a nice run of Western Conference titles. They are the favorites, but I see them falling just short to a more veteran team who's healthy due to the longer off-season. What can I say – I like an underdog. That being said, I'm a hypocrite because I think nobody beats the Heat in the end.
For a guy who plays so much Xbox, Kevin Durant is a MAN. Let's see where he can take it over the next 62+ games.

"UDINE" Top 5 Page for this destination Udine by iandsmith
Udine Travel Guide: 117 reviews and 236 photos
And don't I just love them! If I could import one thing from Italy to Australia it would be piazzas, Italian style.
Udine's population of around six figures makes for a town with a busy feel about it yet, when I was there, you still feel you can walk around without masses of people on the sidewalk.
One of the main attractions is the Piazza della Liberta, whose seductive pink hued Loggia del Lionello peeps above the wall in this shot taken of the Arco Bollani, a Palladio-designed gateway dating from 1556.
For some reason I couldn't find the tourist information centre and so I still lack a map which hindered me a little. I couldn't quite work out exactly where I was by referring to the billboard street maps either because the spot where I stood had invariably been erased by the touch of 10,000 fingers.
Despite these difficulties I enjoyed the place and its variety of architecture, its lovely shops in the cobblestone streets. I also pondered how, as a tourist, we forget about the bulk of the city outside the old one and highlight the medieval.
Consider how Prague would rate for instance if the old buildings weren't there. It would be one of the most drab places imaginable based on what I saw.
Udine however, had an upbeat note to it even entering from the north as I did.
- Pros:Active town, not overcrowded, some excellent architecture
- Cons:Where is that tourist information centre?
- In a nutshell:Worth a visit if you're in the area.

I have to re visit Udine. Ciao!
Ian, thanks for showing me these lovely pictures of Udine. My Italian friend lived here during the first period of his military service. He sent me letters, but no pictures or postcards.
More outstanding pages. Thanks for showing me some of the places I had insufficient time to visit during my NE Italia adventure.
Good morning Ian. Udine is one place that we appear to have overlooked. We shall remedy that oversight upon our return from Germany in a few weeks. Thanks for sharing. Pa
I have often driven 'not far from' Udine but never got time for a visit. I will. Thank you for showing what to expect ! I will try to find the tourist office and a geological explanation for the hill !
Never been to Udine but your job is really good. Pro pictures and stylish comments. Congrats.
Hi Ian! Nice Udine-page! Seems like you fell harder for the town than I did, lucky for both you and the town! :) Keep up the good work! /Henrik
dunno why is Udine so underrated destination
What a delightful Italian town with its lovely piazza. I agree with you, piazzas (Italian style) need to me imported. Thanks for a grand tour.

Très Vite: Track Day With Baume & Mercier, And A Quartet Of New Capeland Cobra Chronographs
I could hear them long before I could see them, and then long after they'd pass, disappearing around turn one – the jackhammer of the GT350, the basso profundo of the 289 Cobra and banshee wail of the GT40. By midday, I was able to distinguish one car from the other by sound alone. And though I'm convinced that by day's end, I'd probably doomed myself to early hearing loss, I couldn't get myself to use the provided earplugs. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – the largest gathering of Shelby Cobra racing cars ever seen in Europe – and I wanted to take it all in, sights, sounds, and smells.

A Week On The Wrist The Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Bathyscaphe In Sedna Gold
The Fifty Fathoms watch has been around since 1953, and for its 60th anniversary in 2013, a thoroughly updated version was created: the Bathyscaphe, which takes its name from the undersea exploration vehicle invented by Jacques Piccard. The Bathyscaphe's styling is significantly different from earlier Fifty Fathoms models, and the movement is the very modern caliber 1315, a fast-beat, long-power-reserve engine specifically introduced by Blancpain in 2008 to provide the brand with a performance oriented in-house sports watch caliber. In 2015, Blancpain released a new, Sedna Gold version of the Bathyscaphe – and we just spent a Week On The Wrist with the most contemporary and one of the most quietly luxurious Fifty Fathoms models ever made.
Watch Shopping Chicago: A Visit To The New Marshall Pierce (VIDEO)
It seems as if the idea of the family-run, multi-brand, authorized watch store is going the way of the dodo, as luxury groups push to control every aspect of distribution (including the margin) via factory-owned boutiques. What we as consumers miss with these hyper-controlled selling environments is the opportunity to see watches from multiple brands next to each other, and to establish a relationship with the people behind the store itself. If independent and family owned is a big deal for a watch brand, shouldn't it be for a retailer?
Watch Industry Veteran William Massena To Lecture At The Horological Society Of New York
Can watches be an effective investment, or is this merely a marketing myth perpetuated by the watchmaking industry? At the May meeting of the Horological Society of New York, William Massena will address this question and more. Massena's illustrated talk will look at notable auction results as case studies, consider how marketing affects the horology industry today, and what challenges this poses to the watchmakers of tomorrow.

This week we've got some very, very clean chronographs, including a truly brand new, never used Heuer Autavia, a truly special Longines (or two) and a fantastic waterproof Vetta.

Major markets across the board are reporting declines, the market for luxury in general is facing challenges, and everyone seems to have different ideas as to what to do about it.
In-Depth The Incredible Watches (And Cars) Of Briggs Cunningham
One of the countless reasons why any given person may have an interest in timepieces is that these little machines, bound to the wrists of their owners, may in fact be witness to greatness. In the ever-growing list of heroes and their watches, today's subject is not near the top for his contributions to exploration – like, say, a Neil Armstrong might be with his Omega Speedmaster – nor for his importance in the macro-level collecting world, like Paul Newman might be with his Daytona. No, Briggs Cunningham is an American hero of a different sort. His name means little to those outside the highest echelons of motorsport and aquatic racing, or classic timepiece and vehicle collecting. But, to those in the know, Briggs Cunningham and his collection of bespoke wristwatches and sports cars are downright legendary. Today, I'll break them down for you.
Ultra Thin: What It Is, Why It Matters, And Who Does It Best (Part I)
Appreciation of ultra-thin watches is something that a lot of enthusiasts tend to come to late – as a matter of fact, it's probably something many enthusiasts never come to, because ultra thin, or extra flat, or ultra flat watches are simply inherently narrower in their appeal (to make a feeble pun). Nonetheless, despite the fact that they are to some extent a niche category of watchmaking today, for much of the history of mechanical horology, greater slimness in a watch was considered not only aesthetically preferable, but also a clear sign of superior talent in watchmaking as well.

"circled the island" Ireland by emmet7
Ireland Travel Guide: 16,388 reviews and 37,608 photos
fabulous country I really enjoyed my first visit and visited where some of my relatives came from after the famines.
I started in Dublin which was great fun, plenty of history, significant architecture and of course lots of pubs. I walked through the city to the Temple Bar and Grafton areas; up by the castle.
Good music scene, enjoyed some of the buskers and several of the 'live' acts in the pub during the evening, the food was so-so.
Ireland is not cheap but quite friendly and certainly an international place with tourist from afar and a great many immigrants from Central Europe.
Definitely a fun place!
I next drove down to Cork along the coast road for quite a distance with great scenery, then I cut over to Kilkenny which was just a beautiful old city that was quite well-developed.
Cork was a fascinating place despite being a little 'seedy' in my view. I liked the hilly topography of the city with good views and fresh breezes. The walking area in the city centre was expansive and vehicle free in several areas.
Next I went on to Galway driving up the west coast and then taking the car ferry to just below Galway which was not overly impressive, the incessant rain did not help my sightseeing activities.
The next day I drove to Belfast where you could sense and see there was a significant difference between the North and Ireland proper, the troubles have certainly not vanished.
Rich history there and more fabulous architecture but possibly even more expensive than Dublin but again a good club 'live' music scene. The castle was fairly impressive despite being small and the pubs were cool.
I returned to Dublin to catch my flight to Edinburgh, it was a good introduction to Ireland and I look forward to my next visit.
- Pros:friendly, green, great pubs, rich history
- Cons:expensive, weather rarely nice, food is so-so
- In a nutshell:look forward to my next visit

Here is Pro Football Weekly's annual All-Injury team, consisting of players who have either suffered season-ending injuries or missed a substantial portion of the season with injuries:
QB Peyton Manning / Colts
Four-time league MVP is a no-brainer if there ever was one. Will he stay in Indy? Could be interesting.
RB Fred Jackson / Bills
Was NFL rushing leader when he went down. Very close call between him and K.C.'s Jamaal Charles.
FB Ovie Mughelli / Falcons
Highly regarded blocking specialist was a 2010 Pro Bowl selection. Combines power with finesse.
WR Andre Johnson / Texans
Lingering hamstring woes have frustrated five-time Pro Bowler to no end.
WR Kenny Britt / Titans
Had a combined 14-271-2 receiving in first two games before going down in Week Three.
TE Tony Moeaki / Chiefs
Was considered one of Matt Cassel's more dependable targets entering season.
OT Jeff Otah / Panthers
A repeat PFW All-Injury starter, Otah landed on I.R. for third time in four years.
OT Russell Okung / Seahawks
A former first-rounder like Otah, Okung was starting to play really well before tearing pectoral.
OG Kris Dielman / Chargers
Loss of Dielman and Marcus McNeill on the left side has been hazardous to Philip Rivers' health.
OG Kory Lichtensteiger / Redskins
'Skins suffered double whammy when both he and TE Chris Cooley went down for count vs. Philly.
C Eric Wood / Bills
Wasted no time becoming a top center, as proven by PFW first-team Midseason All-Pro honor.
DE Luis Castillo / Chargers
Solid defender had started 46 of San Diego's previous 49 regular-season games before injury.
DE Aaron Smith / Steelers
Neck problems of perennially underrated run stopper could be career-ending.
DT Kyle Williams / Bills
Coming off first Pro Bowl appearance, he was Bills' most consistent defender before foot injury.
DT Gerald McCoy / Buccaneers
Another former No. 1 pick bites the dust. Bucs' "D" just not the same without him.
OLB Mario Williams / Texans
Huge loss for Houston. Appeared to have made seamless conversion to Wade Phillips' 3-4 scheme.
MLB Jon Beason / Panthers
Pro Bowler for three consecutive years did not miss a start in first four seasons.
OLB Bryan Thomas / Jets
Dependable 10-year vet's torn Achilles created gaping hole in Jets' defense.
CB Leon Hall / Bengals
Season-ending torn Achilles ended streak of playing in all 73 games since No. 1 selection in '07.
CB Terrell Thomas / Giants
Injured before season, he had a team-high 101 tackles, five picks and four forced fumbles in 2010.
SS Eric Berry / Chiefs
Had proven more than worthy of being fifth overall pick in 2010 draft with Pro Bowl nod as rookie.
FS Nick Collins / Packers
Cohesiveness in Green Bay secondary has been spotty without speedy playmaking safety in mix.
PK Nate Kaeding / Chargers
P Daniel Sepulveda / Steelers
RS Danny Amendola / Rams
LS Patrick Mannelly / Bears

Dawn Glow Moon and Venus by CapturingTheNightWatch
©2011-2016 CapturingTheNight
Reminds me of that one poem... Nature's first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower, but only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf, so Eden sank to greif. So dawn goes down to day, nthing gold can stay.
Beautiful poem I hadn't heard that one before.
Good to hear. The link does not work but i'm sure it's a great photo. Keep up the great work with your pics.
great shot,I loved the colours of the sky<3
Thanks Mooney1486- Yeah I wanted to capture the gradual change of colours. Yes I could have zoomed into the Moon and Venus but I think this is more interesting.
great shot,I loved the colours of sky<3

kkhello ladies, my first time posting on bbc but im here everyday reading all of your posts, im a little worried because i gave birth @ 35 weeks to my beautifull daughter camila she is now a few days shy to be 4 weeks old she is formula feeding the doctor has her on the 22 cal formula , she was having normal bm but her last bm was on wednesday i called the clinic toda to see if i can give her any over the counter med because she is very gassy she passes a lot of gas but when i burp her only one little burp comes out sometimes not even one, well my question is is it normal for her not to have a bm for 2 days now. the nurse told me it was normal for her not to have a bm but if by monday she doesnt have one to call......well her answer didnt satisfy me im still worried
sorry but my question is this happened to ur lo while on this 22 cal formula? u have any advice? cauze she told me not to give her anything
Very normal. My daughter can go up to 5 days. At first I was scared but now I just got use to it being that way she's completely healthy. My son (her twin) goes 2-3 times a day. Every baby is different.
im here freaking out about it just cauze of her age , but honestly im blaming the formula for some reason
Very normal -- It can be several days (3-4) before she has a BM (breastfed babies can go even longer). I would add some Mylicon (it's in the infant aisle at the drugstore) to her bottles. It's perfectly safe, and it makes such a huge difference as far as easing their gas pain.
Ben 8/14/06 (32w5d), pPROM, IUGR, HELLP
Ethan 12/21/08 (37w4d) Yay, a "Termie"!
My DD had that issue to. She was born at 33 weeks. She is still on EnfaCare which is a 22 calorie formula. She was discharged on NeoSure but it made sher so constipated and to spit up half of what she ate. Her pedi was no help at all. I found another preemie formula and switched her on my own and she has done great on it. The iron in the formula can constipate the baby and with their systems being so immature, it can be difficult to pass a bm. I would suggest try switching her formula and seeing if that helps, it can take up to 2 weeks to see a big difference. If not keep talking to the pedi to get the answers you are looking for. Most pedis have very little experience with preemies, so they all do not understand what our little babies need. I really hope that you are able to figure things out for your LO soon. And congrats on your LO.
FTM to DD (33 weeker)
Yes it's normal. Lydia was discharged and had not had a BM for about a week. She was stinking up her side of the room with her gas though! The nurses would even comment on how such a smell could come from such a small thing!! We worried and worried and finally after about 8 days she had a BM. I don't think I was ever so happy to see poo!!!
Lydia born 11/2/2008
Rhys born 11/14/2012
Hi I had a 34 weeker, so our kiddo was close in size to yours. We did the mylicon drops as well, they work great for the gas and the burps. You might also examine your bottle. We loved the playtex ventaires. As far as the bm..if you think she's miserable and you don't want to medicate you can use the thermometer. We did it occasionally till we realized our formula fed son just wasn't getting enough fluid to make a poop he could push out.
Mom to Isaac born @ 34wks, 4lbs 12oz, 12 days in NICU. RAD and FA.
Peanut #2 (A BOY!) due October 19! Fighting for a Termie!
Also try Infant Mylicon (gas relief)...they have them at Target, Long's etc. One of my twins is very very gassy and this helps her. You give .3 ml at every feeding in the corner of her mouth. It helps prevent gas and works 1-2 days. i"ve noticed a difference with her since using it.

My daughter had BM fortifid with 22 cal enfacare and yes she was very gasy and was squealing and bending in half a lot. On the bright side, she has REALLY strong abs now and it helped her with her motor skills..

The Wallflowers played The Showbox at the Market on Sunday, June 21, 2009. The Wallflowers played to a surprisingly spare crowd at the Showbox last
The Wallflowers played The Showbox at the Market on Sunday, June 21, 2009.The Wallflowers played to a surprisingly spare crowd at the Showbox last night. Undeterred, the bluesy rock band delivered a flawless 90-minute set that pulled almost entirely from their recently released greatest hits album, Collected: 1996-2005.
Twenty minutes into the set, frontman Jakob Dylan engaged a drunk female fan in a conversation from behind the mic.
JD: Is that a forty?
Lady: It's a sixty!
JD: Is there such a thing?
Lady: I found it!
JD: [laughs] This is Seattle, right?
...Not the most flattering representation of our city, but oh well. Better than nothing. There were far stranger folks--including the dude rave dancing for almost the entire night--that he could've picked on.
Dylan, much like his legendary father, has a gravelly drawl that makes him sound as though he stayed up the night before smoking an entire carton of cigarettes--and I mean that in a good way.
The Wallflowers played a slew of favorites, including "Letters from the Wasteland," "Three Marlenas," and "The Difference" to the delight of the small but enthusiastic crowd. And, here's a flashback to the summer of 1998 below a la "One Headlight." (It's the acoustic version, as the record label's made it impossible for me to embed the original music video... fuckers.)

I came from the spot that rushed
Hold cha face up to the mirror like JA rule
Fuck these fake emcees that all talk about I Got Money/
When theyre bright as the sunny side up
When these niggaz get cold in this cold world they blush/
Hold they flow in and think theyre number #1 like Nelly versus KRS One/
When they sinking thinking they still got sexy ladies
All in debt we can flow on the block or in the studio or the sweat shop/
I chop beats wit my flows that dont even need to be repeated
I defeat cha then delete cha how about cha read cha rhymes
And Ill let you decide which gamble you wanna take/
Im like The Borg I dont break I assimilate knowledge like college
Enforce my wreckages text messaging my verses to be typed n written/
How much weed cha hitting if you aint even already chipped in
Im spitting a billion words a minute wit more to come sooner than later/
I crush these flows and make these haters go extinct like the dinosaurs
So if you dont wanna be raw or taken seriously then you can get the Jones/
My flows rattle ya bones down to the electrical currency
You body is producing to encourage ya very movements/
Once Im inside cha inner space like Martin Short
You better abort cha plan or youll be lying on the ground/
Grounded and found dead wit cha ice left broken
And shattered showing that hip hop never mattered to a Stan like you/
As people like me are Mass Appeal, Step in the Arena type of emcees
So ask yourself if you still want wit us right where you stand/[/quote]
That was nice yo!
Expand my tactic, panda bear fur on the coat, my quotes rachets/
Spread wings flap spits, opposition hit wit skin eating acid drips/
Grey goose sips, compliments the good life pimp, kids copy the limp/
Walk the righteous road, the negative energy's towed by my console/
Makaveli flow, that Ghost ripped from the cross shit, anti-Hov/
Humping hoes posing as Queens in Erykah Badu clothes/
Ol' mack shooting cee-low, got Goddies for the mob wit genuiwine folds/
Chole-hold like the pigs on Radio Raheem, came up a fight the power teen/
Collage king, emcee's bring the blind darts, and get harped on da scene/
I'm seldom seen slippin', even when walking on ice, blaze wit Christ/
Last night did a bizzare heist, didn't wanna do it/
but my pockets held the price, fast life got me writing my will/
Lifting anvils, ice snatching rapper, that's why my hands chill/
My evidence, my own testament, written on wood
Twelve tribes layin at the head of corners in hoods

Endosulfan and its effects in Kerala
Ramanathan A R
Member Level:
: 35 (
Read about Endosulphan effects in kerala and various studies on endosulfan & its effects in India. Read more on Endosulphan effects in Kerala supported by various studies on Endosulfan & about the danger of its usage.Endosulfan is a component of pesticide used in many parts of the world since about 50 years. The use of endosulfan based pesticides supposed to have produced some health hazards in various parts of the world.
Endosulfan and Kerala
What is endosulphan?
Endosulfan is a chemical, chlorine compound used in insecticide and pesticide. As any insecticide/pesticide endosulphan is also a poisonous material. Endosulfan based pesticide was formulated during the 1950s in Europe. The U S started manufacturing this from 1954. This material is manufactured in many countries throughout the world. In India it is made mainly by the Public Sector Undertaking, Hindustan Insecticide Ltd and to a small extent by private companies.
Use of endosulfan
Endosulfan is used in agriculture, horticulture, gardens etc to control/remove several varieties of insects/pests which damage/destroy crops throughout the world. For about 50 years this pesticide is being used all over the world against the harmful pests and insects. Since it is a poisonous matter, it may also affect the insects useful to the agriculture along with the destruction of harmful pests.
Complaints against endosulfan
Endosulfan is being used in the entire world since about 50 years. After the use of this pesticide, there were some complaints about its harmful effects. Hence some restrictions started taking place as to its use in many parts of the world. In 2000 Endosulfan was banned from the use of homes and gardens. In 2007 Canada decided to phase out endosulfan from use. The U S has decided to ban endosulfan. It is working out a strategy to remove it from the market. Recently around 63 countries including the European Union, Australia, New Zeeland and some Asian and African countries have banned the use of endosulfan in their countries.
Complaints and Studies in India
The main complaint against endosulfan in India is from Kasarkod district of Kerala. In some villages of Kasarkod district in Kerala, Cashew Plantation Corporation of Kerala developed Cashew plantations to the extent of about 2000 Hectares from 1977. In these areas, the corporation was using aerial spray of endosulfan to control pests and mosquitoes. In and around these areas people started having strange health problems. Children were affected by congenital diseases; the population was afflicted with skin allergies, physical deformities, cancer incidents, lever problems, blood cancer, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, asthma, mental retardation etc. There were complaints that while spraying those who were spraying endosulfan used to get breathing problem, cough, irritation of the eyes, headache, bodily weakness, suicidal tendency, drowsiness etc. Women and animals were suspected to have unusual abortions. The people of the area and some voluntary organisations had taken up the problem with the concerned authorities. The local doctors who were treating the diseases were also taking up with their higher authorities.
Studies about the alleged problems
Several organisations and individuals conducted studies and came to the conclusion that the occurrence of these illnesses is mainly due to endosulfan. According to them these problems are found only in and around the places where endosulfan is used. They have cited that many counties have already banned or are in the process of banning endosulfan.
Similarly several institutions have conducted studies or gone through the reports and have come out against the theory that endosulfan connections with the health problems. They point out that throughout the world it is used since about 50 years and only about 60 countries have banned the same. In India itself endosulfan based pesticide is used extensively and no health problems are reported except from Kasarkod and a few places in Karnataka north of Kasarkod. If endosulfan is the cause it should have been noted in other areas also. They felt that the bogey of endosulfan is projected mainly by the companies manufacturing alternatives to endosulfan from European Union to further their interests as the alternative to endosulfan is produced and patented there. The price is also very high for the alternative and will be costly to the farmers. This will enhance the margin to the manufacturers.
Like in any important public matter, the endosulfan effect has also produced opposite views and the controversy is going on. Unfortunately, the affected persons and families continue to suffer. It is high time that either the State or Central Government do something to find out the true cause of the misery of Kasarkod people and take steps to eradicate the problem.
Remedies for affected people
In 2002 the Kerala High Court banned sale and use of endosulfan in Kerala on a petition, and the State Government banned endosulfan in Kerala. In 2005 the Central Government issued order that the pesticide bottles containing endosulfan should have label with a message that the bottle is not for sale in Kerala. A petition has been moved in the Supreme Court in May 11, seeking a ban on sale and production of the pesticide Endosulfan across the country. The outcome of the case is awaited from the S C.
Relief for victims
In August 2006 the Kerala government disbursed Rs 50,000 each to the kin of 135 victims who had died. The C M announced a relief package of Rs 50 lakhs to take care of the treatment of the affected and their rehabilitation free ration, pension, a loan waiver, housing and drinking water supply, rehabilitation, training and employment for the 2,210 victims of endosulfan exposure. He told journalists later that the state would enhance pension, improve education facilities, housing, and drinking water supply and provide job training and employment to the endosulfan victims. The C M said that action would also be taken to provide land for the landless.
Stockholm Convention 25 to 29 April 2011
Representatives from 127 Governments meeting in Geneva last week at the fifth meeting of the Conference of the Parties agreed to add endosulfan to the list of POPs to be eliminated worldwide. The action puts the widely-used pesticide on course for elimination from the global market by 2012.

The Bar: Coming off over a month of franchises and packed houses, Belltown Pizza (Belltown, 2422 First Avenue) was a relaxing return to the simpler world of independent quizzes.
Belltown Pizza draws a relatively small turnout, averaging about 10 teams a week. However, a factor that Trivia Tuesdays seems to overlook all too often is a bar's capacity to actually seat its contestants to any degree of comfort. Belltown Pizza not only manages this convincingly, but also provides the calm, dimly lit ambience it usually upholds on weeknights, making it quite possibly the most romantic trivia night in Seattle. (Disclaimer: Seattle Weekly takes no responsibility for any catastrophic interpersonal failures to come about through suggesting a pub quiz for a first date.)Unfortunately, Belltown Pizza's awesome acoustics work a little too well when it comes to discussing questions -- people talking about answers at a totally reasonable volume could be sniped from three-to-four tables down.
The Quiz: (Mondays, 7PM, Free to Play) Another upside to Belltown's smaller turnout is that Quizmaster Shawn will talk first-timers through the quiz's format upon receiving their answer sheet. To save him the trouble for Trivia Tuesday followers, there are four rounds of ten questions, all bound by a common theme ("Guns and Ammunition" was this week's motif.) The first round is generally an easy round to acclimate teams to the quiz. The second round is generally the hardest round of the quiz, in which the highest scoring team earns a free round of drinks. The third round is an audio round, usually playing a song and asking to identify the band or artist who composed it.
Finally, Shawn claims the last round is the goofiest, bawdiest round of trivia, where Shawn hopes that teams have gotten drunk enough to have a better sense of humor about their questions. The fourth round is where questions can be a little more liberal with the weekly theme and usually include a few multi-part questions for teams vying for the First Place prize of Belltown Pizza gift certificates.
After every quiz, "Thank You For Being a Friend" plays while Shawn thanks the entire bar staff and anyone at Belltown Pizza who had even the most auxiliary part of business that night. It's a sweet, honest gesture that wraps up a solid staple of a tight-knit bar.
The Host: Shawn started at Ballard's Molly Maguire's, but good friend and charismatic bartender Eric Ellsworth got him into the position after Belltown Pizza lost its old host. Since then, Shawn has been hosting for a few years now with the occasional summer break that has more to do with noise ordinances and reduced turn-out and nothing to do with host exhaustion or ennui.
Shawn says he would love to expand, proclaiming every moment of his life not spent hosting at Belltown Pizza is either spent scheming for next week or weeping into his hands.
Furthermore, he's always open to new questions or categories, -- even if he has no intention of using certain suggestions, it gives him a better idea of what categories his crowds want and to what degree of intensity they want them.
Drink Specials: Belltown Pizza offers bottles of Fat Tire at $2.50 throughout the entire quiz.
Special Effects: The audio round is a nice touch, but perhaps the crown jewel of Belltown Pizza's quiz night is the elusive "Bartender's Challenge," posited by the aforementioned Eric Ellsworth whenever he has an inspired bit of trivia to randomly insert into the quiz. Some weeks he won't say anything, but this particular night had three inputs, with prizes ranging from a shot of Jaegermeister to a Cheesecake Factory gift certificate.
It's this sort of spontaneity that Shawn says puts them over franchises like Geeks Who Drink -- GWD might ration prizes between rounds, but here you really get the idea that even the most failing of teams have the chance to take home a little extra something at any given moment, so long as they keep their ears perked.
The Verdict: With a warm, comfortable atmosphere, delicious pizza available by the slice and an amiable host, Belltown Pizza's trivia night definitely feels like one of the least stressful trivia nights in Seattle. Questions can be a little on the easy side, but not so much to lose more seasoned players' attention. If you want a solid, laidback night of trivia as opposed to a mind-crushing trial of arcane knowledge coupled with screaming nerds, Belltown Pizza is a great place to unwind while still keeping your wits about you.

Happy with boots so far....
By: TripH
I've had these boots for about three weeks and so far so good. I work in a kitchen and these boots meet all my needs. They are very comfortable, they maintain excellent traction on tile floors wether covered in water, soap, or oil. I'm usually not a fan of steel toes because the leather on the toes gets really beat up from my feet hitting the bottom of the reach in cooler under my station, but with the rubber caps on these boots I don't think that will be a problem.

Seven Devils by Elflover21Watch
©2014-2016 Elflover21
Was listening to this song, and got inspired. From the looks of YouTube, a few other people have too...
No creds, all my own resources save:
I love that song, good job
I love Loki so much I could just... *dies*
My relationship with this song is....troubled, but there are certain times that I do enjoy it. And involving Loki, it's a perfect fit.
Pretty much the same with me, and the first place I heard it was something to do with Loki, so I associate it with him now
i'm running out of adjectives to describe your work XD

I store the date as integer field in my database and called it timestamp. When I display it in template, I tried to use
{{ timestamp | date:"D d M Y" }}, however, this does not output anything for me.
Did I do anything wrong?
Edit: Sorry for the typo, I did put date: instead of date= in my code. However, since the timestamp was integer field, should I convert it to datetime before doing this? Can I do it in the template itself? Since this line of code is in the middle of iterating an array of object in the template.

Jack and the Beanstalk by yusef-abonamahWatch
©2008-2016 yusef-abonamah
The is a an illustration of Jack and the Beanstalk, and it is something that I have wanted to do for a very long time. I love all the Jack tales, and last year I did a few illustrations of Jack the the Giant Killer. In this one I just wanted to capture, the feeling of what is to come, man eating Ogre and what not. In this I approached the coloring in a different way, by starting with dark base colors, which in the past i did not do. Comments are welcome!
"There Are Giants In The Sky! There Are Big, Tall, Terrible, Awesome, Scary, Wonderful Giants, IN THE SKY!"
Into The Woods!

Looks like it belongs in a fairy tale book~
I love his facial expression!
Definitely looks like an adventure!

Oh I love this one as well.
...Wow... the angle on this is so good. Really captures the drama of the moment... I can almost hear the wind rustling those leaves...
Great colors, excellent work on the lighting!
Lol, I like how you put your name in a scroll...

your best work yet, dude! this one turned out awesome! its fav'n time!
yay Haley can spell...*eerie*
I really like the feel that this has. The bits of sunlight that are poking though help give it an eirie feeling. Kind of like that lonely feeling. I really love the coloring style that you chose as well. It really has that storybook feel. Your characters are soo cool! I love the way that you draw them!
P.s. There is a really Jack and the Beanstalk story in the musical, "Into the Woods". If you haven't seen it yet...you have to see it! Epic.

I like both the composition and the palate. It really gives a nice earthy feeling to the old school tales. I think you might want to add some atmospheric perspective to the town. You can already see the light beam catching some atmosphere in the front so you should desaturate the colors on the town to fog it out a bit.
looks like it could be in a book
I think that the subdued and darker colors really lends to the feeling of the picture. It reminds me more of the idea that fairy tales were made as warnings to naughty children, not fun stories, but this is both.

Welcome to the Ireby Festival web site. Ticket prices and details are here.
Keep up to date with all things festival by going to and "liking" our Facebook page
Ireby is a small farming village with a population of about 160. It is situated on the north west edge of the Lake District National Park; 12 miles from Keswick and Cockermouth and 18 miles from Carlisle
With a range of music to suit most tastes, performed in small intimate venues and a main stage restricted to just 600 people, Ireby festival presents an unforgettable and unique atmosphere and is considered among the best for those with a real love for live music.
This is the festival's 14th year and it has developed a reputation for selling out early, so be sure to react fast to be part of one of the last festivals where the actual love for music and one another is still the main point of focus.
I have to admit to being biased because Charles & Noleen have asked me to MC ever since the Festival started - for which I feel privileged - but as I have nothing to do with the organisation I can say without hesitation that it is a wonderful event. Small, beautiful, great atmosphere, always a lovely crowd. When you couple that with a wide range of music - often some brilliant surprises - it all adds up to a special experience. So, thanks for putting it on (and thanks for letting me make a prat of myself in front of a marquee full of people!) - I wouldn't have it any other way!

I have an 8 year old and a soon to be 7 year old. They do not get allowances for regular chores: making bed, sorting their laundry, cleaning their room, helping with dishes etc. Things that are to take care of themselves or our general household cleaning are just expected.
The occassionally get allowances (sometimes money, sometimes special priveledges like extra computer time) for extra chores. Like helping with yardwork, picking up dog poo, helping to wash the car. They might earn $1/big chore. Then they save up for something.
My husband wants to give DS $5 a week for his chores. I told him I think $2 a week max at this age is more than appropriate. He only has to make his bed, clean his room, feed the dog, and empty the bathroom trash cans. It really isn't much at all.
My two boys were born July 29, 2005 and May 25, 2010.� They were both 8 lb 14 oz and 21 inches long at birth.
We're the same as karijoy - no allowance for doing the daily things that are just part of being a family but allowance if you choose to do something above that. I have a chart made for my almost 7 year old that shows her "have to" chores and then a list of some ones she can do if she wants to earn extra money.
It is not a slight thing when they, who�are so fresh from God, love us.-- Dickens
we dont have any meny spear. We dont make enough. money is too tight. if i could give her allowance i would not.
Tooth fairy gave a change purse, lost first buck. I give her (when i can) a few quarters for it. if she does not bring the purse no quarter meachines. As really help, i dont have quarters on me other wise.
i try and teach her that buying something as cheap as you can is better. The more you can get the better. like the ice cream truck is a dollar or more!!! For ice cream. At the store, (aldias) we can get a box of 12 ice creams for 2. i feel that an allowance is just to help learn how to manage money. can teach with out given an allowance.
You can not blame anything on something that does not exist.
