The NFL Draft begins three weeks from Thursday.
At Chargers Park, player evaluation continues.
Several prospects are visiting Murphy Canyon this week. While the exact total is not known — the team doesn't disclose its 30 allotted pre-draft visits — the group Wednesday included former Indiana wide receiver Cody Latimer and Montana inside linebacker Brock Coyle, sources said.
On Tuesday, former Illinois State outside linebacker Colton Underwood stopped by Chargers Park.
Scott Crichton, an outside linebacker from Oregon State, will visit today.
At this stage in draft preparation, the Chargers have a very strong sense of player grades. Game film hasn't changed in months. Measurable data, like 40-yard dash times, from the NFL Scouting Combine and pro days is logged. Any "rising" or "falling" documented in media is more indicative of reporters gaining a better sense of what teams think about a player, not the actual team opinion changing.
But visits do help the Chargers finalize a player grade.
Neither Coyle nor Underwood attended the combine. Crichton and Latimer are early-entry juniors.
Of the group, Latimer is expected to be the highest draft pick. He began the pre-draft process as a projected third-round choice. Steadily, the 6-foot-2 target has built the case to be selected earlier in a deep wide receiver class.
Some draft analysts have linked him to the first round on May 8.
Underwood and Crichton played defensive end in 2013. Both project to outside linebacker in a 3-4 scheme. Crichton, in the mold of Chargers veteran Jarret Johnson, measured at 6-foot-3 and 273 pounds at the combine. Underwood is listed at 6-foot-3 and 255 pounds.

Bernstein Liebhard LLP Announces That Eight Days Remain To File A Motion For Lead Plaintiff In Class Action Concerning Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
NEW YORK, Nov. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Bernstein Liebhard LLP today announced that eight days remain to file a motion for lead plaintiff in a securities class action concerning Peregrine Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Peregrine" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: PPHM). The case, filed in the United States District Court, Central District of California, is on behalf of all persons (the "Class") who purchased Peregrine common stock between July 17, 2012 and September 26, 2012, inclusive (the "Class Period"). The action is brought under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10(b)-5 promulgated thereunder. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120202/MM47134LOGO )Peregrine is a biopharmaceutical company. The Company is focused on the research, development and commercialization of novel therapeutics for cancer and a wide range of viral diseases. Throughout the Class Period, the Company made materially false and misleading statements regarding the Company's Bavituximab Phase II Second-Line Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Trial ("Phase II Trial"). Specifically, the Company made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that there were major discrepancies between some patient sample test results and patient treatment code assignments in the Company's Phase II Trial. On September 24, 2012, the Company disclosed that there were major discrepancies in the treatment group in the Phase II trial and that investors should not rely on previously reported clinical data disclosed from this Phase II Trial. On this news, Peregrine shares declined $4.23 per share or over 78%, to close at $1.16 per share on September 24, 2012. On September 26, 2012, after the market closed, Peregrine disclosed that it had received a notice of default from its lenders demanding full payment of all its obligations under a key loan agreement, plus a final payment fee equal to 6.5% of the principal amount repaid." On this news, Peregrine shares declined $0.55 per share or over 33%, to close at $1.11 per share on September 27, 2012. Plaintiffs seek to recover damages on behalf of all Class members who invested in Peregrine common stock during the Class Period. If you invested in Peregrine common stock as described above during the Class Period, and either lost money on the transaction or still hold the shares, you may wish to join in this action to serve as lead plaintiff. In order to do so, you must meet certain requirements set forth in the applicable law and file appropriate papers no later than November 27, 2012. A "lead plaintiff" is a representative party that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. In order to be appointed lead plaintiff, the court must determine that the class member's claim is typical of the claims of other class members, and that the class member will adequately represent the class. Under certain circumstances, one or more class members may together serve as lead plaintiff. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. You may retain Bernstein Liebhard LLP, or other counsel of your choice, to serve as your counsel in this action.

Review Summary
- All two-bedroom, two-bath condos with full kitchens
- Oceanfront location
- Three miles from Na Pali Coast State Park
- Five miles from Hanalei Bay Beach
- Informal, yet full-service, spa on-site
- Top-notch Mediterranean restaurant
- Free Wi-Fi throughout
- Borders picturesque but rocky, unswimmable beach
- Only bagels and muffins for breakfast
- Small pool
- No in-room AC
- Housekeeping is only every third day.
Bottom Line
No TVs or phones; instead, you get rare oceanfront views and hiking in the breathtaking Na Pali Coast. The pool's small, housekeeping only comes every third day, and there's little for breakfast other than bagels. But the 48 two-bedroom condos with full kitchens are worth the downsized features.

I received a comment to last week's article on Alice in Chains that instantly reminded me of part of my somewhat-lost "mission statement" here. The comment was a suggestion from a reader about a new book, The New Pearl Harbor by David Ray Griffin. Ah, yes! We are in midsummer--a great time to sit on the back porch and read a good book. I'd like to think that this weekly forum can be used as a meeting place for the intellectual-minded on topical subjects, yes, but also a place where we can all turn each other on to what books we have been reading: suggested high-minded fodder for us who can't find a good book on our own (I definitely fall into that category at times).
Duff McKagan's column runs every Thursday on Reverb.
Thankfully, I have friends who know that I am an avid reader, and they will sometimes pick up a book for me that they think fits my criteria (nonfiction, mostly). Mike Squires was in Portland last week, and found himself perusing the famous Powell's Books. He happened upon You Can't Win by Jack Black, a very popular book in the 1920s that quickly went through five pressings before inexplicably being forgotten, hence becoming an underground cult read.You Can't Win was reportedly William S. Burroughs' favorite book and a cornerstone of his writing style; in the new edition that I now own, Burroughs penned the introduction. The book follows Black's rough-and-tumble childhood, which eventually brought him to a life of crime and riding the trains, criss-crossing the turn-of-the-century United States. Black tells an uncompromising tale of his absolute fascination with the life of a "yegg"--basically, a homeless vagrant that chooses a life free of the 9-to-5 job, etc.
This book is really quite fascinating in that Black's voice throughout stays true to the parlance of that time. If any of you have seen an episode of HBO's Deadwood, that will give you a clue to the peculiar Western-style speech of that time. This book is an absolute page-turner, and I highly recommend seeking out a copy of your own. It is one of those that you keep and display on your home bookshelf . . . for sure!
If you lean more toward rock and roll and if you are a Stooges, Iggy Pop, or even David Bowie fan, Open Up and Bleed by Paul Trynka is probably the most complete and well-researched book ever written (and there been a few) on not only the Stooges, but also on how Iggy got the last name "Pop," the downfall and triumphant return of Iggy's career, and lastly the triumphant return a few years back of Ron Asheton and the Stooges. I read this book on tour last month, and it inspired some good rock moments out there in Europe for me.
I just picked up a new book that is perched to be my next read after You Can't Win. Drew Gilpin Faust's This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War is a National Book Award Finalist that examines a little-written-about side of that dreadful period in American history: how we dealt with ALL of the death that was its overwhelming product. To quote Vintage Books' blurb on the back of this book:
"600,000 dead . . . an equivalent proportion in today's population would be 6 million. In This Republic of Suffering, Faust reveals the way that death on such a scale changed not only individual lives but the life of the nation, describing how the survivors managed on a practical level and how a deeply religious culture struggled to reconcile the unprecedented carnage with its belief in a benevolent God. Throughout, the voices of soldiers and their families, of statesmen, generals, preachers, poets, surgeons, nurses, Northerners, and Southerners come together to give us a vivid understanding of the Civil War's most fundamental and widely shared reality."
I like books on war in general, if only to try to grasp what it must be like to fight, kill, and die in something as fucked up as armed combat. Two of my brothers were in Vietnam, and I asked my mom once back then (I was probably 5) how a war gets started. She said that basically two men couldn't get along and so they had all of their citizens fight out their differences. I have yet to find a better explanation.
Stephen Ambrose has written some fine books on the human condition in war and other stressful situations. Band of Brothers and Citizen Soldier are just two of his that I can highly recommend. Ambrose's book on the Lewis and Clark expedition, Undaunted Courage, tops my all-time favorite nonfiction list in that he so precisely nails down every twist and turn of that journey while also putting the reader inside of the expedition members' heads. For instance, did you know that modern scientists have concluded that Meriwether Lewis suffered bipolar disease, and they think this is what led to his painful suicide when, after not having turned in his unfinished journals after two years, he was finally beckoned by Jefferson to Washington? Fascinating stuff indeed.
Do any of you have book suggestions? Please share if you can.

Barquil wins 13th Vuelta stage, Nibali keeps lead
Associated Press
CASTELLDEFELS, Spain -- French cyclist Warren Barquil earned his first professional win in the 13th stage of the Spanish Vuelta, and Vincenzo Nibali maintained the overall lead on Friday.
Barquil sprinted away from a small breakaway group over the final stretch to claim the 105-mile ride from Valls to Castelldefels on the Mediterranean coast.
Barquil is a former junior champion of France and won the Tour de l'Avenir in 2012. He dedicated the win to his recently deceased grandfather.
According to the provisional results, Nibali kept his 31-second advantage over nearest cyclist Nicolas Roche.

LinkConnector Rolls Out Technology to Support More Merchant Shopping Carts
LinkConnector Integrates Google's Shopping Cart Solution and Gives Merchants More Choices
CARY, NC June 5, 2007 LinkConnector (http://www.linkconnector.com/), an Affiliate Marketing Network, announced today that it has fully integrated LinkConnector tracking with Google's shopping cart solution, Google Checkout, giving merchants more advanced checkout options for their shoppers. The ability for merchants to provide more checkout options for their customers can mean greater conversion rates for LinkConnector Affiliates as well, creating a synergistic outcome for both parties. LinkConnector made its way onto the coveted list of approved Google tracking service providers earlier this year, making the integration of Google Checkout possible for merchants using their industry-changing Affiliate Marketing Network. The integration of Google Checkout comes in addition to an already impressive list of other shopping cart solutions that LinkConnector currently supports for its Network Merchants. It also keeps with LinkConnector's philosophy of providing the best technologies, services, and support to its merchant and affiliate base.
Google Checkout offers a trusted checkout option for shoppers allowing them to make purchases from participating online stores with a single Google login. A shopper can use Google Checkout by creating a Google Checkout login directly from the merchant's website with a single username and password, and basic information such as their contact details and payment preferences. With Google Checkout, shoppers are able to track their purchases (including order history and shipping details) in one place.
Google Checkout also benefits merchants by streamlining the checkout process and making it less expensive. Once shoppers buy with Google Checkout, merchants using AdWords can process all or a portion of their sales for free. For every $1 merchants spend on AdWords, they can process $10 in sales through Google Checkout at no charge. Current merchants that work with Google Checkout include Jockey, Starbucks Store, Levi's, Timberland, and Buy.com.
"Integrating Google Checkout was a natural progression for LinkConnector," said Michele Fuentes, Director of Technology for LinkConnector. "We are committed to providing the most advanced and up-to-date technologies for our merchants and affiliates. Working with Google to provide this latest shopping cart option for our merchants lined up with these goals."
Beyond Google Checkout, LinkConnector also supports a variety of other shopping carts, including OSCommerce, X-Cart, Yahoo Cart (all versions), and PayPal. LinkConnector remains dedicated to working with both small and large merchants to integrate whatever shopping cart provider works best for their business.
"LinkConnector has worked with a number of merchants in the past to integrate custom-built shopping carts," said Drew Bowman, a programmer at LinkConnector. "We work hard to provide personalized solutions for our customers. Even if a shopping cart is not currently supported, we will generally find a solution."

At the very least, you can do that by invoking "explorer.exe /select,C:\path\to\file". I'm not sure if there is an equivalent API call.

Veteran playback singer K.J. Yesudas turned 73 Monday and with more than 40,000 film songs in 14 languages, his journey in the world of music continues.
The versatile singer visits the Kollur Mookambika temple near here every year. This time too, he marked his presence and took part in the musical tribute, considered a revered practice of all those who are into music and arts.
He left the temple in the afternoon after holding the customary musical session where he sang hymns.
Music runs in his family. His father Augustine Joseph was an accomplished singer and now Yesudas' son Vijay is also a sought after playback singer.
Yesudas reached a milestone Nov 14, 2012, when he celebrated his golden jubilee as a singer. It was on that day 50 years back when he did his first recording.
The seven-time National Award winning singer is always spotted in a flowing white kurta and a white dhoti.
Last year, his gesture of taking the lead in putting pressure on the Kerala government to see that they provide financial assistance to the hearing impaired, met with success. Today, the state government runs an implant programme for the kids, for free.
Over the years, Yesudas has been conferred the Padma Shri and the Padma Bhushan honours, besides winning 17 state film awards.
Even though settled in Chennai, Yesudas arrives in the state often and also owns a home in Florida.

Product Information
Panasonic KX-TGC210S - cordless phone with caller ID/call waiting
Intelligent eco mode automatically lowers the power consumption when you're using the handset close to the base unit. Not only does it extend the available talk time, it's good for the environment. When less power is used by the handset to communicate with the base unit, battery life is prolonged which results in less frequent charging and can result in fewer batteries in landfills.

The main thing that is sticking out for me at the moment from pre-season games and practice camp reports is how good our defense is looking. We had a great defense last season that kind of eroded in post-season due to injuries and lack of rotation and it looks as if we have drafted to address this.
However I think what has taken me by surprise is quite how good the defense is looking. Ian Williams has stepped up into straight up beast mode at NT and is looking like a lock. We signed Dorsey who has been good in the pre-season games, though perhaps not spectacular, and looks more than capable of contributing and spelling RayMAc and Justin. Dobbs is looking like a solid backup as well, so the D Line looks very good so far with potential to rotate as needed to keep people strength.
Then I look at the Linebackers... it's embarrassing and I imagine there's a letter getting sent to the UN requesting that they are dispersed to the rest of the league as they are too dangerous to be allowed to remain on one squad. I mean we have one of the best rushers in the league in Aldon (arguably the best), Brooks who makes critical plays and then we go out and draft Lemonier who is looking like an absolute beast, I think he will be a starter for pass rushing downs - he has 2 (or is it 3) sacks in 2 games and added so much pressure that he facilitated 2 others. We have Haralson who is looking very solid with something to prove and Johnson who has developed leaps and bounds and Skuta who has a couple of sacks. This group as a whole is looking exceptional and would be the strongest on the team until you look at the ILBs...
We have the 2 best ILBs in the game right now, and their backups are looking almost as good. Wilhoite and Moody have been making plays to the extent that there seems to be no drop-off when they are on the field.
In the secondary, Reid is looking like a pro already. Solid, makes plays, directs the defense well, very clever and makes big hits and tackles. I know he was a Harbaugh choice and I can see why. Whitner is solid though I do worry about him, but Spillman and Robinson are looking like they can contribute as well. In the CBs, Cox has really stepped up, Rogers and Brown are playing well and Nnamdi is looking excellent. I've gone from really worrying about our secondary to thinking they will actually be a strength.
We look like we're going to get excellent pressure with a 4 man rush, I notice we're doing very well with cross dog blitzes, and I am strongly expecting that our front 7 is going to be incredibly disruptive. What that will mean is that our improved secondary is likely going to see more interceptions with hastily thrown balls. We look like we're going to have very good coverage, incredible pass rush and the ability to collapse the pocket along with an incredibly strong run defense.
In short, it's looking awesome

As President of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, Jason Kenney fought hard for lower taxes and fiscal responsibility.
In 1997, Calgary voters elected him for the first time as a Member of Parliament.
Since then, he's been voted the "best overall," "hardest working," and "most knowledgable" MP by his colleagues, and called "perhaps Canada's best immigration minister ever" by the National Post.
As Minister of Employment and Social Development, he re-tooled training programs and implemented the Canada Job Grant to connect Canadians with good-paying jobs.
He served Canada's Armed Forces as the Minister of National Defence in 2015, while continuing his work with multicultural communities across Canada. He also chaired the Cabinet Operations Committee, and served as the Regional Minister for Southern Alberta.
In 2015, Jason was re-elected with nearly 67% of the vote. He hopes to continue serving his constituents in the new riding of Calgary Midnapore, and to keep working for a Canada that is strong and free.

Scripting Tutorial for Bash 4.0
The "Advanced Bash Scripting Guide" version 6 has been reworked to incorporate the new features of Bash 4.0.
The Advanced Bash Scripting Guide written by Mendel Cooper encompasses 361 code examples and would make a 960-page printed book. Cooper describes the guide not only as an "in-depth exploration of the art of shell scripting" but an introduction to general programming concepts such as recursion.
The new version 6.0.05 of the document demonstrates among other things the introduction of associative arrays that Bash 4.0 announced the end of February. As an example of their use Cooper provides a simple address database. He also goes into the expanded syntax for the case construct, enabling parallel processes through the coproc built-in, and use of the mapfile built-in to load an array with contents of a text file.
In an editorial comment at the end of the Bash version 4 chapter, Cooper nevertheless asks the question whether so many new features are really necessary: "Whatever happened to the lean and mean Bash we have come to know and love?" His suggestion for more "essential" features would include for-each loops and multi-dimensional arrays.
The document is included among the Linux Documentation Project Guides as text, HTML, PDF, PS and PDB. The author put it under Open Publication License with some additional conditions.

Back in 2006 when I took my first steps on the grounds on Tutorial Island, I immediately fell in love with Runescape. But now, I'm just happy that I was able to beat my addiction, thanks to Jagex. After being a loyal member for years, I couldn't bring myself to renew my membership come 2011. Why? Runescape has become something unfamiliar to me.
The community has become sour and childish. No longer is it abound with kind-hearted teenagers, but rather crammed with scammers, lurers, children, trolls, and an overwhelming amount of bots. Not that any of this is uncommon in most Mmorpgs, however; what immediately turned me away from Runescape was the manner in which Jagex deals with said community. Bots are not banned, content is dumbed down, and scammers are not punished. The general community has become a minority to the amount of bots roaming Runescape. It has become impossible to players to compete with them, and impossible for Jagex to do anything about.
Another crippling feature of Runescape is the current economy. Over the years, the prices of items have become inflated almost beyond repair. This is the result of thousands of scammers and item merchanters/manipulators. And what is Jagex's response? They released an organized trading device known as the Grand Exchange. It's now easier than ever for merchant clans to form, manipulate items, and then be taken advantage of by their leader so he/she becomes ridiculously wealthy.
The combat system is anything but balanced. This, however, isn't much of a problem. A character isn't limited to one class. He gets to train all of Magic, Mellee, and Range.
In order to level up skills, one must grind them for days on end. While some can be bought, others can take years before mastering level 99. One thing I like about the constant grinding is that most skills don't require constant clicking while training. This gives me time to chat with friends or to do other things while I train.
The last comment I have to say is about the graphics. Runescape features some unique and slightly inconsitant graphics different from most MMOs. I quite liked the cartoonish model of my character, but I dislike that most of the NPCs I saw looked better than I did.

Both Treasury Board Guidelines and the Ethics Commission state it is inappropriate for a government official to blur the lines between a government and a partisan announcement. However, Minister Pierre Poilievre felt no apparent shame. He was quick to point out that neither the Liberals nor the New Democrats support the UCCB (a half-truth at best). Accordingly, he was not so subtly attempting to persuade an apparently gullible public that only the Conservatives could be trusted to protect families. It's not new for governments to attempt to play politics with taxpayer money; but vote buying has rarely felt more shameless.
This is how Conservative MP Laurie Hawn responded to the now 140 plus businesses who have raised concerns in a letter published by the National Post about reckless spying Bill C-51: "[They] should seriously reconsider their business model and their lack of commitment to the values that bind us as Canadians."

Computer Interface Helps Deaf-Blind Community
November/December 1998
Krista Caudill, a deaf and blind undergraduate researcher at the University of Delaware, is helping to design a portable computer that will "speak" as she types, and translate other people's speech into Braille.
She will evaluate the computer in the real-world setting of her campus, while researchers study the impact on communication when a computer translates information from one format to another, such as from the spoken word to Braille. The project is being funded by NSF and is intended to eliminate the total dependence that Caudill and others like her have on sign-language interpreters.
Richard Foulds, of A.I. duPont Hospital for Children in Wilmington, Delaware, received the NSF grant and serves as the project's principal investigator, overseeing Caudill's work. Caudill and a colleague, Beth Finn, have already developed a conceptual design that was selected as a winner in the student design competition of the Rehabilitation Engineering Society.
"Computers have such potential to open doors to better communication for people with disabilities, and for all people," said Gary Strong, deputy division director in NSF's Division of Information and Intelligent Systems. "By understanding how computers can mediate communication, we can help not only Krista and the deaf-blind community, but potentially everyone."
Caudill, who has been deaf and blind since childhood, must rely on an interpreter for face-to-face interactions with people who do not know sign language. But the cost and ability to schedule trained interpreters makes spontaneous, one-on-one conversations difficult.
"This system will help me tremendously," said Caudill. "I will be able to communicate with other people who don't know sign language. I will be able to have conversations with a group of people, such as a study group, or carry the laptop and use the system in public. It will also help other people who are like me."

Wilmington Municipal Golf Course revamp a tricky proposition
Published: Saturday, January 11, 2014 at 9:50 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 11, 2014 at 9:50 p.m.
With an expected budget of around $700,000, the upcoming renovation to the Wilmington Municipal Golf Course has met plenty of questions and a little hesitation.
Muni update
What: Wilmington Municipal Golf Course renovation
When: 2014 calendar year
What's happened: The city of Wilmington hired John Fought Design of Arizona to update the 88-year-old course's greens complexes to address issues with drainage and approaches. Fought is using drawings from architect Donald Ross to restore the Muni as close as possible to the legend's original plans for the layout. His updates were presented to the public on Thursday night.
What's next: City of Wilmington Downtown Services & Recreation superintendent Amy Beatty will present the design plans and a cost estimate at the Jan. 21 city council meeting. At that time, the city is expected to identify funding and make a timeline for the project.
Photo Galleries
After all, those with long ties to the 88-year-old facility want to see their home course improved but don't want to lose its difficulty, uniqueness and charm.
Golf course architect John Fought, hired by the city last year as the project consultant, addressed many of those concerns on Thursday night, presenting his plan to a full house at the Halyburton Park Events Center.
Size matters
Fought said this will be the fourth course he's renovated that was originally designed by Donald Ross. His experience with Ross courses, including Pine Needles, leads him to believe that Wilmington doesn't need a huge overhaul, just a return to the original plan.
The greens that grace the Muni today are, for the most part, grass planted atop the "sand greens" built when the course was founded. According to Fought, Ross' original plans had larger greens complexes with more rolloff positions, and he'd like to return those to play.
That means the course's infamously small landing areas would grow, but not by ridiculous numbers. The course's toughest holes – Nos. 1, 3, 10 and 17 – would swell the most, but the average growth would be from approximately 2,500 square feet to approximately 5,500 square feet.
In terms of yardage, that's about three steps deeper and eight steps wider.
"I thought these were some of the smallest greens I'd ever seen," Fought said during his Thursday presentation.
Other changes
The increased area will give course superintendents more pin options and alleviate overuse for the tens of thousands of rounds the course supports annually.
A question was posed about putting, if there would be less "straight" putts. Fought responded that Ross didn't use tiers in his design, including the Muni. Golfers won't see shelving in the future, but should expect more putts with break as the slight raising of some greens would give holes toward the edges a different look.
> The area surrounding many greens will be reshaped to allow drainage and eliminate the spongy area that seems to persistently surround the putting surfaces when water runs off them. In addition to reshaping greens, a new irrigation system will be installed around all the complexes.
The Muni didn't get irrigation until the 1950s, after Ross' death. Therefore, Fought said, the architect couldn't give his thoughts on adjustments made by that improvement. Fought said his design takes that into consideration; it's not a strict return to Ross' original design, but heavily incorporates technological advances.
> The surfaces will also be redone with a mini-verde Bermuda grass, giving them better maintenance potential throughout the year and can be groomed well in virtually all weather, including any cold snaps in the winter.
The increased use of Bermuda grass does require more sunlight, meaning that some trees near greens will be taken down – most notably to the left of the 12th and 14th holes. Fought and Muni head professional David Donovan, however, hope to plant trees in some areas that could use them, including down the right side of the ninth fairway.
>Finally, the bunkering around all greens (and, hopefully, the few remaining fairway bunkers, Fought said) would be restored, with grass fronts and proper drainage to avoid ponding as much as possible.
Other things
> Fought said the crowd of approximately 85 people was one of the bigger ones for his presentations.
"I've done a bunch of different groups," he said. "Obviously, this is a very enthusiastic community about its golf course. I think that's great."
> The club's 25-round card will be examined once the timeline of construction is established at the Jan. 21 city council meeting. While not confirming a plan, head professional David Donovan expects some sort of extension for use of that card.
> Donovan also said the course would be revisited by the Carolinas Golf Association for new rating and slope numbers, for handicap purposes. With the length of the course not changing by this renovation, don't expect those numbers to change drastically.

What has been your favourite role to perform and why?
"It's very hard to pick just one, but my favourite role to perform so far has to be the Russian Girl in George Balanchine's Serenade. It was one of the hardest roles I've ever danced, but it still puts a smile on my face and gives me butterflies when I think about it. I'll always remember the way the light hit my face as I ran out for my first entrance, and from there it was truly magical. I feel so grateful to be given the opportunity to tackle this historic piece, and hope to revisit and develop this role again in the future."

"Loi (Lwe) Villages of Wan Nyet and Wan Seng" Wan Seng by kenmerk
Wan Seng Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 19 photos
Loi Villages of Wan Seng and Wan Nyet: There are so many hill tribe villages that you can reach from Kengtung, you would never be able to visit them all, so you have to pick and choose. That said, I think that these two are certainly worth a look.
The road north from Kengtung to Mongla was just recently paved, which will make this journey a lot less painful on your rear end. It used to be a bumpy, dusty, dirty, 3-4 hour hayride up through the mountains here, followed by a two hour trek up to the two villages. Now the ride up is a smooth two hour journey, interrupted only by the occasional police check points that are omnipresent in this part of Burma.
The thing that sets them aparts from most of the others are the unique buddhist monasteries that are to be found here.
Looking at the temples,their style seems out of place in the Shan State, they look more like something that you may run across in the mountains of Tibet rather than in the hills of Northeast Burma.
I also found that the kids in Wan Seng and Wan Nyet were quite friendly and open. After they overcame the initial shyness they showed us all around and seemed to enjoy our company.

My wife and I were both born in 1969. Here is a short list of debacles, missteps, and failures that we've witnessed in our time on the planet: stagflation, the energy crisis (gas lines), the tech bubble, the 2nd Iraq war, the housing bubble, and the great recession (and you can add to this list). Another way we could describe the past 40 or so years, if feeling negative, could be: rising inequality, stagnant real wages, rapid increases in health care and education costs, growth in structural unemployment/underemployment, and political polarization and ineffectiveness in the face of these challenges.

NBC: Archery most viewed sport
Updated: August 2, 2012, 1:16 PM ETAssociated Press
NEW YORK -- Archery is the new curling.
NBC said Thursday that during the first few days of its Olympics coverage, archery was the most popular sport of any that it aired on its cable networks -- bigger even than basketball. Archery averaged 1.5 million viewers when it came on TV.
NBC Sports Group chairman Mark Lazarus attributed the interest in part to the popularity of "The Hunger Games" getting young people interested in bows and arrows. American archer Brady Ellison is also a big ...

Community Economic Development Initiatives: A Descriptive Exploratory Study of Community Shared Agriculture
Ashiabi, Godwin S., Journal of the Community Development Society
This study examines community economic development (CED) initiatives and focuses on community shared agriculture (CSA) as an alternative form of farming to industrialized agriculture. CSA connects the farmers directly with consumers, such that both farmers and consumers share the benefits and risks involved in agriculture. The purpose of this study was to understand what motivates individuals to become involved in a CSA and what involvement in CSA means for them. As a point of departure, the ecological and social psychological problems associated with industrialized agriculture are elucidated. Empowerment theory, social vitality, and sense of community were used as conceptual frameworks. Data were collected on a community farm in midwestern Ontario using a participant-observer mode of inquiry and open-ended interviews. The themes that emerged were categorized under empowerment, social vitality, and sense of community.
Community economic development initiatives (CED), specifically, community shared agriculture (CSA) as an alternative form of agriculture are examined here. CSA connects farmers directly to consumers, and enables participants to share the benefits and risks of good and poor growing seasons. Basic to all CSAs are the farmers and share members who purchase a "share" of the harvest through pre-season payments. Once a formal relationship is established, pick-up and delivery times and extent of consumer participation are arranged.
The purpose of this study was to examine what motivated individuals to become involved in CSA and what involvement in CSA means to them. Empowerment theory, social vitality, and sense of community are used as organizing frameworks. As a backdrop to the study some of the ecological and social psychological factors associated with industrialized agriculture are examined. It is argued, given these problems, that some individuals in rural communities are looking for alternatives that are counter-cultural.
Ecological and Social Psychological Consequences of Industrialized Agriculture
The ecological consequences of industrial agriculture include the destruction of rural environments through the use of agrochemicals in food production (Brown & Wolfe, 1984; Carson, 1963). Hamilton and Woolcock (1984) also express concern about the impacts on landscape when woodlands are removed, and Adams (1984) reports its negative impact on wildlife.
In terms of its social psychological consequences, Bowler (1992), Kneen (1993), and Sim (1988) observe that industrialized agriculture has led to a handful of transnational corporations gaining control over food production, which is achieved through the contractual obligations of farmers to agribusiness; through biotechnology and patenting; and through financial credits to farmers (Bowler, 1992; George, 1984; Kneen, 1993; Sim, 1988). Sim (1988) also comments on the powerlessness and marginalization of individuals and communities, and the breakdown of communities via the promotion of individualism and anonymity as farmers have been collectivized into an impersonal complex food chain.
Various writers (i.e., Bennett, 1987; Crowfoot & Chesler, 1974; Goldenberg, 1978; Wachtel, 1983) argue that we need alternatives that alter our consciousness, lifestyle, and interpersonal and community relations toward mutual exchange and control, and result in individuals mobilizing to achieve greater power and access to goods and services. Additionally, the alternatives should lead to a reduction or elimination of practices that are destructive to the natural ecology, and have the restoration of the sense of community and connectedness to others at their core (George, 1984; Kneen, 1993; McRobie, 1982; Oldenquist, 1991; Rowe, 1986; Sim, 1988; Wachtel, 1983).
McNeely (1999) reports on the successes of various community building efforts that seek to address the problems and opportunities of both poor inner-city neighborhoods and rural areas. …

DH and I are currently 14hrs away from home because he was sent out on a project for work. We have been here since April and will be here til July 2013. He normally works 10hr days Mon-Fri with occasional Saturdays. Last Thursday his boss calls him and says he needs him to go another 2.5hrs south and fix a problem. Long story short it took all weekend so he left super early Saturday morning and didn't get home until Sunday night. I'm used to it, but never before has it happened while we're both already away from home and never before have I been pregnant LOL Needless to say the pregnancy hormones didn't handle it well. It wasn't so much the alone all weekend, but the fact that I knew how tired he already was and how bad it would be on him. I hate it when he gets over worked. It's going to make an old man of him very fast. So anyway, they decided at noon yesterday that he had to go back this weekend. So he left early this morning and headed down there. Now the job is so big he won't get to come home until Monday night! This is just ridiculous...I'm so frustrated that they keep doing this to him. Yes the money is nice, but we'd rather have the time together, and I'd rather he rest. Life is to be enjoyed, and when he gets dragged into these scenarios it isn't enjoyable
OT - DH's job is frustrating!
Comments (8)
I know what it's like to be left alone. DH runs a truck locally. He gets home around 9 or 10 a couple nights a week if I'm lucky. I cannot make plans and depend on him being there b/c he never knows when he will be working. And of course, work trumps everything (even God, that doesn't work for me).
His job is a blessing, but sometimes I really begin to wonder when does the blessing become a curse.
it's not OP's fault that others don't have jobs. she's allowed to be frustrated that she raely sees her husband because of his work.
If you want to pay that game, no one on this board should ever complain about anything, fortunate as we are to be living in a place where we have the luxury of an Internet connection while a huge portion of the worlds population has no running water even.
OP - is there anyway your DH can take a day or two of vacation days? Maybe along with a weekend and have him inform his boss he won't be reachable? Give you two some time together and him some time to unwind?
Wife to Jordan since 08/06 and mummy to Jakub born 12/07, Alexander born 4/13 & Olivia 12/15. Love my little crew!

hey, you stepped into the post. sounds like you're just looking for someone else to blame for your misfortunes. best of luck to you.
I just got back to this post so I guess I missed "the haters" but thank you guys for backing me up. LOL I really didn't mean to offend anyone that was having a tough financial time. DH and I had it very rough before his job took a turn for the better. We've had it all happen to us from the electric being turned off to my car being repossessed, and our home going into foreclosure. I KNOW we are blessed to have the opportunities that we have. That being said, yes I miss my husband. Sometimes the best opportunities are just ill timed. I'm hoping DH will be able to have time off next weekend, if not his next day off will be the 17th when we go for our NT Scan. I've worked 19 days straight before like he'll be doing this week and I know it's hard on you body and soul. I just hate that he has to work so many days straight.
OP, hang in there...it IS a blessing that he has the work. It's just something you have to keep reminding yourselves of, because it is so hard to be apart so much, especially during a pregnancy.
