When selecting skin care products, it is important to consider both effectiveness and quality. On both of these points, bareMinerals READY products surpass the competition. All of bareMinerals' products are made with 100 percent pure minerals and do not include any preservatives, fillers, harsh chemicals, artificial colorants, synthetic fragrances, or binders. There is a vigilant focus on providing skincare options that are made using the purest, highest quality minerals available. All bareMinerals READY products are formulated to provide the best possible care and coverage for all skin types and skin tones.
Representing an innovative new concept in solid mineral technology, bareMinerals READY eyeshadows combine rejuvenating sea minerals with fresh, long-lasting color. The formulas deliver makeup and anti-aging benefits in one product. These products rely on bareMinerals' SeaNutritive Mineral Complex to revitalize skin around the eyes and to deliver impressively softer and smoother skin. The shadow is pressed into solid form using methods that preserve all the powerful skin benefits of sea minerals that are lost through conventional pressing methods. While the bareMinerals READY line may look like average eyeshadow, the vibrant color and additional skin benefits put it in its own league.
Whether you wear eyeshadow regularly or save it for special occasions, it is ideal to purchase a product that works overtime to meet your skin's needs. With bareMinerals READY products, you can achieve bold and brilliant color while nourishing your skin and improving its overall texture.
Formulated with proprietary SeaNutritive Mineral Complex, bareMinerals READY SPF 25 Mineral Veil Tough Up Original provides a flawless finish throughout the day. While your skin is being nourished, the color will work to minimize the appearance of skin imperfections, reduce shine, and produce healthy and radiant skin.
Featuring the silk stone and sandy brown colors called Guru and Namaste, bareMinerals READY Eyeshadows 2.0 – The Enlightenment provides a powerfully vivid and long-wearing color. The formula goes on smoothly and is easy to blend, allowing the two complementary shades to work together. These shadows look like powder but feel like cream when they're applied. While you are wearing this eye shadow, you also benefit from the products' anti-aging and de-puffing ingredients. Your eye area will be left softer and smoother. As with all bareMINERAL products, the formulas do not include parabens, binders, fillers, or harsh chemicals.
If pink cream and mauve brown are colors that mesh well with your natural skin tone, bareMinerals READY Eyeshadows 2.0 – The Nick of Time is the eyeshadow for you. This duo provides silky formulas that are easy to blend. The ingredients include age-fighting components that will leave your skin smooth and revitalized after wearing. Meanwhile, you will enjoy vivid, long-lasting mineral color.

Alize Cornet is a lady in waiting. France's new teen queen had her match with Argentina's Gisela Dulko suspended due to darkness with the match tied at 3-all in the third set.
And even though she's only 18-years old Alize has made the cover of France's biggest sports mag L'Equipe this week and told the publication she knows her time at Roland Garros will come...maybe not this year but soon:
Roland Garros is winnable for me one day, but not this year. Mentally and physically, it's too soon to be able to manage a tournament like this for an 18-year-old, but I'm learning. Why not next year, or in two years? I can wait five years, 10 years, 20 years -- the important thing is to win it someday. That would be incredible.It doesn't sound like Alize is lacking in confidence and it shows in her fashion too. She's working a youthful, flirty outfit by Lacoste which showcases her natural exuberance. And even though Gisela is wearing a similar outfit in their match, Alize's accents of red put her over. A winner for sure.

She looked fantastic! I hope she is able to come back after the break, and no doubt day of rain, and win it.ReplyDelete
let's hope - i really like her too!ReplyDelete
It's too bad they ditched the karaoke this year in lieu of "funny" Roland Garros tennis ball photo shoots. They probably would have let her sing something charming. :)ReplyDelete
You're right, nice outfit.ReplyDelete

Recovery is a process, beginning with diagnosis and eventually moving into successful management of your illness. Successful recovery involves learning about your illness and the treatments available, empowering yourself through the support of peers and family members, and finally moving to a point where you take action to manage your own illness by helping others.
Untreated Mental Illness: A Needless Human Tragedy
Severe mental illnesses are treatable disorders of the brain. Left untreated, however, they are among the most disabling and destructive illnesses known to humankind.
Millions of Americans struggling with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depression, know only too well the personal costs of these debilitating illnesses. Stigma, shame, discrimination, unemployment, homelessness, criminalization, social isolation, poverty, and premature death mark the lives of most individuals with the most severe and persistent mental illnesses.
Mental Illness Recovery: A Reality Within Our Grasp
The real tragedy of mental illness in this country is that we know how to put things right. We know how to give people back their lives, to give them back their self-respect, to help them become contributing members of our society. NAMI's In Our Own Voice, a live presentation by consumers, offers living proof that recovery from mental illness is an ongoing reality.
Science has greatly expanded our understanding and treatment of severe mental illnesses. Once forgotten in the back wards of mental institutions, individuals with brain disorders have a real chance at reclaiming full, productive lives, but only if they have access to the treatments, services, and programs so vital to recovery.

Kahawa Nzuri!This week's coffees are a paean to the flavors we cherish in the coffees we purchase from Kenya.
Style of Tasting
Cup + BrewThese coffees will be equally fun to cup and to brew, so I recommend following your cupping with a pour-over demonstration and brewing discussion.
Notes on the CoffeesWhile the names of some of our coffees, like Thiriku, refer to both the name of the farmer co-operative society (FCS) and the washing station from which we purchase the eponymous coffee, Ngunguru is the name of one of three washing stations owned by the Tekangu FCS. Ngunguru and Thiriku hail from the Nyeri region, where we are accustomed to finding our best Kenyan coffees, but this past year, coffees from this region were more difficult to purchase than they previously had been due to the decision by the governor of Nyeri to centralize the sale of coffee in hopes of generating higher returns for farmers. We responded by diversifying our approach and although our coffees spent longer in transit than it has in past years, the coffees we sourced are still outstanding.
Thiriku is a favorite many times over for Counter Culture employees and customers alike, and the coffees we will sell from them this year certainly won't disappoint. Out of all of the dozen-plus coffees in the shipment of Kenyan coffees that arrived in the warehouse two weeks ago, this lot of Thiriku is the most reminiscent of currant, hibiscus, and other sweet-savory-tangy flavors that have helped build Kenya's reputation for coffee quality. Before I worked in coffee, I didn't seek out jams, chutneys, sodas or anything else made from currants—much less the fresh fruits themselves—but after falling for Kenyan coffees, I now find myself gravitating toward them whenever I see them!
You all tasted spectacular coffee from Kambarari during our Pro Dev on Kenya a few months back, so I'm sure there's no shortage of excitement to taste it again. In a recent Flickr set and report from Kenya, Tim wrote the following about this farm:
"There was one coffee this past year we could not stop talking about, and that was the coffee from Gerald Njagi Chege and his farm, Kambarari. We bought the coffee as soon as we tasted it, and actually flew it in from Kenya and sold it as our first ever single farmer Kenya lot. The sad news of this coffee, is when we visited the farm, we were told that Gerald has past away, and now his sons were managing the farm (I guess that peaberry lot we flew in, was a nice nod to Gerald).
"Kambarari is about 4 hectares of mostly SL28, but of all the farms I visited actually had the least infrastructure. They ferment in a plastic bucket and wash in a wooden channel lined with a plastic tarp."
"Kambarari is about 4 hectares of mostly SL28, but of all the farms I visited actually had the least infrastructure. They ferment in a plastic bucket and wash in a wooden channel lined with a plastic tarp."
This coffee represents one of our forays away from the model we've come to rely on in Kenya over the past five to ten years, which involves buying the top-scoring lots from FCSs in Nyeri that have been selected by the exporter Dorman, and toward working with slightly-larger-sized farms like Kambarari to build standalone relationships. We hope that by exploring beyond the known realm, we can find groups and individuals interested in undertaking projects together that allow us to work more closely and collaboratively with growers the way we're accustomed to doing outside of Kenya. This particular farm is in Kiamutugu, to the east of Nyeri near Embu, and we have at least three more coffees from single farms for you to taste in the weeks to come!

The products of chemistry empower our nation's efforts to improve energy efficiency—from insulation to coolants to packaging, the products of chemistry help save energy every day. Chemistry also is the source of many innovative technologies that drive cleaner energy options, create green jobs and propel U.S. economic growth.
To meet our nation's economic and environmental goals, ACC supports a comprehensive national energy strategy that promotes and develops all of America's own energy resources—conventional and shale natural gas, oil, wind, nuclear, solar, etc.—while also promoting energy efficiency and alternative sources, such as energy recovery.
Three energy sources—domestic natural gas from shale formations, energy efficiency and energy recovery from plastics—can help America reach energy security and environmental goals. At the same time, these energy sources will promote growth in America's chemistry industry and create opportunity for a broad range of industries, while driving the creation of new jobs.
Given federal and state budget realities, public policies must look beyond traditional government subsidies and identify new ways to encourage energy efficiency, as well as alternative and renewable energy technologies. At the same time, government policies must not undermine the availability of domestic natural gas.
Shale Gas
American chemistry relies on abundant, affordable natural gas as a source of energy and as a raw material, or "feedstock," for countless chemical products. It is estimated that U.S. shale deposits contain 100 years of natural gas supply, a "game changer" that is rejuvenating America's chemistry industry—and can strengthen U.S. manufacturing, boost exports, create hundreds of thousands of new jobs, and improve our nation's energy security.
Energy Efficiency
The products of chemistry save energy and drive cleaner technologies. For example, plastics reduce the weight of automobiles which significantly increases fuel efficiency. Encouraging the use of energy efficiency technologies in the industrial, commercial and residential sectors, including the adoption of updated energy efficiency building codes, will lead to significant energy savings. For example, updated codes would encourage use of plastic foam insulation, which would dramatically reduce energy use in buildings where 40 percent of U.S. energy is used.
Energy Recovery
Technologies today are able to recover the energy contained in plastics. Plastics have a high energy content that can be converted to electricity, synthetic gas, fuels and recycled feedstocks for new plastics and other products of chemistry.
Recovering this abundant energy also reduces waste sent to landfills and complements plastics recycling. Energy recovery is rapidly becoming viewed as another source of clean or renewable energy.
ACC members make valuable contributions to our nation's portfolio of energy efficient innovations.

Hi! I don't know of any particular climate software like that... But the big thing to keep in mind about islands:
-Their temperature is often mitigated by being so surrounded by ocean. It's less extreme than inland weather at the same latitudes, in terms of temperatures.
Now, islands close to a big continent have similar climates to their coastal counterpart. E.g., the islands of the Puget Sound share nearly identical weather and climate with Seattle's surrounding area. What I'd personally do is just look up the weather of a real island similar in latitude to where you want your fictitious island to be, then copy it and tweak for things like changes in mountain ranges, etc.
Oh, and I think hand drawn maps are pretty popular here, so you don't have to worry about that!

I had to reinstall zimbra. Everything seems to be working except for pop3 and imap. Outlook cannot connect to pop3 or imap. But if I use pop3S (995) and imaps (993) it works. but for regular 110 and 143 it does not work. Proxy appears to be running also as ssl pop and imap are working.
Also, I tried telnet to 110 and 143 and it goes through so I'm sure it's not a firewall issue.... it keeps asking for password when I try POP or IMAP...
any ideas?
btw it is more or less a default installation. everything is working except for pop and imap access.


text: Has anyone experienced this? I hiked into a great spot that was loaded with cow's the day before. I had cow's all around me. I even had a calf spinning in circles kicking his heels while his mother walked up and bedded 10 yards from me. Amongst all the commotion I heard several locater bugles. I was starting to think it was a person, but the seconds bugle was closer so I answered back. I waited and no response, within 15 minutes above me a bull lets out a lip ball, with chuckles and this sounded like a very mature bull. I bugled back and chuckled 8-10 times. (Keep in mind this is my first Elk) So with his cow's all around me, and the thermal's in my face, I look up and all I see is RACK coming down the mountain. He is coming right at me. When he is 80 yards away I let out two cow calls which I could hardly get out. I was behind a giant cedar tree, 5ft in diameter. So he walks in facing me at 25-30 yards, and just stands there looking at my decoy. After a 2min. standoff he turns completely broadside and I decide to draw behind the tree. (He can't see a thing) I anchor the bow, step to the side of the tree and both my 20 and 30 yard pins are totally in the kill zone, I release the arrow and drill him, but maybe only a couple inches high of perfect, big whack and he turns and run's. As he runs I notice the arrow only penetrated 15-18"????? I was expecting a complete pass thru. Without extending the story anymore, I found the arrow up 70 yards with the broadhead snapped off about 3" up. When I shot he ran about 60 yards in a semicircle the way he came and went to a walk. I bugled at him and cow called, and he just walked off. I was expecting him to be dead within 150 yards. I waited 1 hour, which was a killer, then "still hunted" up the trail. When I had gone 250 yards up the mountain, with descent blood, and it had been an hour and 45 minutes at that point, I backed out quietly. I waited for a nonhunting friend to show up and we went back, now it had been 4 -5 hours. We followed the blood which eventually went to small drops for 1/3 of a mile until almost dark, when a downpour started. Needless to say I am sick to my stomach.Any idea's from any veteran Elk slayer's???? (BTW This was a big bull, in fact when I saw it I couldn't believe it could be my first possible kill)

The Brussels Congress of 1905 was to have taken place two years earlier in order to determine the regulations of the 1904 Olympics, but when the head of the Organising Committee resigned it was postponed to 1905. Not for the first time an Olympic Congress was scheduled with the original agenda removed, leaving the way clear for Pierre de Coubertin to devise the programme according to his wishes. He took the opportunity to return to the pedagogical themes discussed at the 1897 Congress.

Flooding a side effect of sand replenishment in I.B.
Sand replenishment work has resulted in flooding, condominium owners say
IMPERIAL BEACH When SANDAG said more sand for Imperial Beach, residents didn't expect that they would be getting more water, too — in their condominium buildings.
As part of its 2012 Regional Beach Sand Project, SANDAG spent four weeks in September replenishing more than 4,200 feet of beach south of the pier in I.B. with 450,000 cubic yards of sand dredged from Mission Bay. The agency finished the project in October, and for the last two months, says resident John Ireland, his condo garage has been flooding whenever the moon is full and the tide is high.
Ireland and his wife, Elizabeth, live in a beach-side condo on Seacoast Drive, across the street from the Tijuana Estuary.
"We've had quite a time here," he said. "Our underground garage got flooded with 8 to 12 inches of water, and no one could get to their cars for two or three days."
The problem isn't the new sand, he said, but the way it was banked. He suspects that in an effort to preserve the expensive resource and keep it from washing back to sea, SANDAG sloped the sand away from the surf and toward the residences. Now when waves crash over the embankment, instead of returning to the ocean, the water runs down the gentle grade, pooling up and filtering through the sand below into the lower levels of the buildings nearby.
"It's a very good design for not losing sand, but it's very bad for us residents," Ireland said.
But SANDAG staff said the beach was not created with a high bank near the tide. The sand was level when it was installed, they wrote in an email to U-T San Diego, and high tides and wave action have since moved the new sand, creating that higher "lip" along the western edge of the beach.
"Flooding in the Seacoast area is due to multiple causes, including higher than usual tides, proximity to the ocean and the estuary, rain runoff, low levels of the condominium garages, and possibly the new sand from the sand replenishment project," they wrote. "The added sand acts as a filter and slows down the drainage of the water."
Assistant City Manager Greg Wade said it appears that only buildings with below-ground parking structures are experiencing flooding.
After the first flooding in November, Ireland and some other residents approached SANDAG about the problem, and the agency sent out a crew with bulldozers to dig a trench down the beach designed to retain the water. The trench only exacerbated the problem the next month, Ireland said, serving as an even deeper reservoir to collect the water before it seeped into the basements of neighboring buildings.
"I don't think (SANDAG officials) anticipated exactly what has been going on south Seacoast Drive, but sometimes you just don't know what Mother Nature is going to do first," said Mayor Jim Janney.
SANDAG staff said that was indeed the case, and they are investigating ways to mitigate the flooding, but warned that there may be no absolute solution.
"Even if additional action is taken, experts consulted by SANDAG caution that some flooding may continue to happen when there are high tides," they wrote in the email. The agency will not have a cost estimate for dealing with the flooding until it settles on a plan of action.
The sand replenishment project was intended to help residents who had barely any barrier left between their condos and the surf because of erosion, staff added. The new sand acts as a buffer to protect both public and private property from storm surges that could cause potentially more severe flooding.

Play Bookworm for free online at Games.com. Feed the hungry bookworm with chains of words streaming from old storybooks. Enjoy one of the most polished word games on the web. CHEATS & TIPS Count to Three Each letter tile has one, two or three dots in the lower-right corner. Each dot adds value to the letter score, so try to combine as many two and three-dot letters as you can. Bonus Tiles Creating words of five letters or more will grant bonus tiles, which act as multipliers. Use several bonus tiles in a single word for tons of points. Word Fragments Are Your Friends Add prefixes and suffixes like -er, -ed, -ing, re-, un-, or plurals like -s or -es to instantly beef up any word. Short Words Are Not Using too many short words can cause problems. Flaming tiles drop from the top of the board, burning a tile beneath them every turn. If you don't use the letter soon enough, it will reach the bottom of the screen, burning the library and ending the game. Too many short words leaves behind many undesirable letters with limited options. In cases like these, you can click on the Bookworm to shuffle the board, but watch out for more red tiles as a result.

I would like to build simple Quartz compositions that respond in real time to audio. Once I've done that, how can I record both the audio and video into a single video file for upload to youtube? I would prefer to work within Quartz Composer, iMovie and other software that is free or already included with OSX.

Well, you can import the audio into quartz or play it through the mic input using Soundflower. http://quartzcomposer.com/plugins/1-export-to-movie SHOULD export it. Then you can go back and add and line up the music to the video with iMovie (or something better) and export it.
*Soundflower Instructions: Open soundflowerbed, in the menubar (top) a little flower will appear, click on it and go under "Soundflower (2ch)" and click "Built-in output." This will let you hear the audio when you do this. Then go to your system preferences, go to audio settings, and change the OUTPUT to "Soundflower (2ch)" When you go into Quartz Composer, drag the Audio Input (if you have not already) and wire it up. Then go to settings in the inspector and check "Select a specific audio source" and select "Soundcloud (2ch)." Then go and play whatever you want on your computer.
Since Quartz Composer renders directly on the graphics card (with openGL) there's no way to render a file in real-time.
Here's an alternative solution:

I am unable to get an image to display in the signature file. I recently upgraded to Zimbra Desktop 2 and seem to have lost the ability. The image displays in the signature preference dialog, but not when I try to include the signature in an email. The text displays but not the image. I tried both adding the file and adding it via URL. Neither will display the image.
The image is in a publicly viewable web space.

Transportation news: BTS Freight Transportation Services Index is up from previous levels
August 11, 2010
The Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) reported today that its Freight Transportation Services Index (TSI) rose 0.2 percent in June, following a 0.4 decline in May.
According to BTS officials, the Freight TSI measures the month-to-month changes in freight shipments in ton-miles, which are then combined into one index. The index measures the output of the for-hire freight transportation industry and consists of data from for-hire trucking, rail, inland waterways, pipelines and air freight.
The BTS also noted that the Freight TSI at 97.9 was up 4.7 percent year-over-year. June's Freight TSI is down 13.3 percent from its historic peak of 112.9 in May 2006.
While the Freight TSI is up 4.1 percent year-over-year, the BTS said it is below the level of every other June since 1997's 92.4. BTS added that the Freight TSI has exceeded the previous year's level every month since January but it is still below the level of recent earlier years.
The Freight TSI is down 11.8 percent since June 2005 and is down 2.3 percent since June 2000, according to the BTS.

The Society for Human Resource Management recently elected three new HR executives to its 13-member board of directors for next year, an announcement that was applauded by critics who say that the association has too many leaders without human resources credentials. But concerns about the make-up of the board persist.
"We were pleased that three HR executives joined the board," says Mike Losey, former SHRM president and CEO and member of the SHRM Members for Transparency, a dissident group of former association leaders. "But when you add up all the members with HR certification and experience, we still have the lowest number of HR-certified professionals on the board in SHRM's history."
Only four members of SHRM's 2012 board of directors are certified by the Human Resources Certification Institute, which is viewed as the industry standard for evaluating HR practitioners' expertise. The 2011 board also has four HRCI-certified members.
The newly elected officials are: Coretha M. Rushing, chief human resources officer for Equifax Inc.; Brian D. Silva, senior vice president of human resources and administration for Fresenius Medical Care; and José Tomas, president of Latin America and Caribbean and global chief people officer for Burger King Corp. Both Silva and Tomas have certifications from the Institute.
Losey says the transparency group had considered sponsoring a write-in candidate but decided not to after SHRM leaders told the group in October that they "would be pleased" with the HR qualifications of several candidates. Transparency group members met with association leaders in October to discuss a list of ongoing issues, including the number of board members without HR experience.
The transparency group was formed last year regarding concerns about the board's 2005 decision to pay its members an annual salary.
"We are pleased to welcome these three highly experienced human resource executives to the SHRM Board of Directors. Their expertise—experiences with business strategy and the global marketplace and an understanding of a changing workforce—will help guide SHRM as it continues to serve the needs of its membership," said Henry G. (Hank) Jackson, president and CEO of SHRM in a written statement.
In addition to the new board members, Bette J. Francis, a board member since 2007, was re-elected as chair-designate. She will replace current board chair Jose A. Berrios in 2013.
Also, Jorge Consuegra, a global business and marketing executive, and My-Chau Nguyen, senior vice president of customer relationship marketing for Sirius XM Radio, were re-elected. Both Consuegra and Nguyen were named to the board in October 2011
The other re-elected members are: Jeffrey M. Cava, executive vice president and chief human resources officer, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.; Calvin W. Finch, senior vice president and chief financial officer, CPP, Inc.; James A. Kaitz, president and CEO, Association for Financial Professionals; Gary P. Latham, secretary of state professor of organizational behavior, Rotman School of Management, University of Toronto; and Virda M. Rhem, director of human resources, Texas Property and Casualty Insurance Guaranty Association.
Also continuing on the 2012 board will be Berrios, who is serving the final year of his two-year term as chair, and Jackson.
In addition to Silva and Tomas, Francis and Rhem also have HRCI certifications.

Photo Galleries
RETURNING STARTERS: 3 offense, 6 defense
STAR WATCH: It all starts with senior defensive tackle Keiwan Jones (6-2, 260) who Beasley says has as bright of a future as another pair of recent Division I Dunnellon grads — Terrence Brooks (FSU) and Lerentee McCray (UF). Jones has plenty of D-I offers, including Purdue and Iowa State.
NEW FACES: The Tigers must replace eight starters on offense. Leading the way at quarterback is sophomore Kobie Jones (6-1, 170). Jones takes the reins from the now graduated Jordon Boley. Jones is wise beyond his years, Beasley says, and has picked up the offense well over the summer.
QUOTABLE: "You hear about a fast pace and everybody's trying to speed up the game — Dunnellon is the exact opposite. We're not going to do that. We're going to slow the thing down and keep the game close in the fourth quarter and hopefully our kids are in great shape and conditioned and wear on you. We really try to win the game from the line of scrimmage." — Beasley.
BEST CASE: The defense, which played well at camps over the summer with Keiwan Jones, tackle Keandre Brooks (6-3, 300) and linebacker Cole Fagan (6-1, 215) leading the way, will be a strength as the offense finds its way early as receiver LD Thomas (5-11, 170) and RBs Josh Williams, Rudy Sinflorant and Kane Parks make plays with the ball.
WORST CASE: Kobie Jones and the offense suffer growing pains and the Tigers fail to close the gap on district frontrunners North Marion and Eastside, leading to another non-playoff season.
PREDICTION: Beasley and the Tigers pride themselves on being consistent and with experience and big bodies on defense, they should hold up enough to be in the upper half of the district and playoff picture.

Toddler Drives Pickup Truck Into Neighbors' House
When George and Kathleen Williams pulled up to their home after a shopping trip yesterday, they had a surprise visitor: The neighbor's pickup truck was sticking out of the wall of their home.
George Williams told 11 Alive that it was "A little red pickup truck from across the street. And it was driven by a 2 year old."
Police say George's neighbor was unloading something out of the back of his vehicle's cab while his 2-year-old son was sitting inside of it.
Gwinnett County Police officer Jake Smith told 11 Alive, "Just accidentally, the child was able to put the car in gear and it rolled down at a fairly slow speed across the street."
The pickup was moving fast enough to go through an outside wall and two windows, into the Williams' basement. Williams said the truck also broke a gas line and a water line.
George and Kathleen Williams have lived in their home for almost 40 years and have never experienced anything like this. No surprise there! "I just wanted to make sure everybody was alright," he said. Thankfully, the 2-year-old boy was not injured.
And how do George and Kathleen feel about their neighbors now? There's no hard feelings. George says, "They didn't mean to do it. So it doesn't make any difference. Nobody was hurt and like I said, things can be fixed, people can't."
Talk about being neighborly!

Now that it's pretty much a done deal that Kelly is pretty much done for the season. PC's hand is basically forced to make a move. So, without playing fantasy hockey...and throwing out names like Perry & Ryan. PC probably would like to have 2 forwards & another D, but I doubt he has the parts to get that now. So without moving any of the TOP 6. That includes Krecji people...Peverly stays & we all know that the 4th line probably won't be going anywhere. And Rask, DS, Chara, Hamilton & McQuaid are safe. Please add your own to the list. These can be rentals but I'm looking at realistic 3rd liners on the B's & possibly a d that could play top 4 in case Boychuk goes. Here's mine from some teams

[Verse : Brandun Deshay]
True story, I started this like eleven o'clock Chicago time and I'm gonna to the whole mixtape tonight and go to sleep fucking exhausted
This whatcha all been waitin for
The space ship has finally taking off
Space hoes in they space clothes
Tell them to take'em off
Break em off proper on that Kit Kat shit
Smelling like success
Get a big ass whiff
I'm the gift and my presence is the present
I'm guessing its a lesson, my confession to the reverend
I'm sorry I had to kill'em! Wouldn't pay me attention, I bill'em
Since I was a chillen Id see them BMXs and steal em
A bad boy just a tad coy
Getting told on like the tabloids
Quiet but my actions made loud noise
Now more than ever I crave attention, I'm ADD
On my last shows I brought many hoes, like 80 deep
Skatin cheap, cheap skate, my money in wallets
Till I cop Impalas, polish em big like Christopher Wallace
I honestly think I'm hotter than most of your favorite rappers
Turns them girls on like old people do cClap-Ons
Dick so big my girl thought it was a strap-on
It took fucking forever to find this beat just to rap on
Now its on, I'm starting to get warmed up
Practice drills, rappin til Im stackin mills
IM tryna get more bucks
Like Milwaukee scouting couch I'm trying to get more Bucks
These hoes full of drugs more than Lil. Wayne tour bus
I'm sure you know, super flow, super beats, super three
They used to call me Super lame, what that make me, Superman?
Well call me Clark Kent, I get more ass than a park bench
Dirty toilet seat, Don't start shit
That's a smart tip If you want it you should take it
Rapper is like love, don't fake it just make it
…and we keep it moving, Maestro

As Van predicted, Jo-Willy defeated his compatriot and first-time finalist Jeremy Chardy 6-4, 7-6 (5) to win in Johannesburg and earn his third ATP World Tour title (Bangkok, Paris Masters). He also raced through the draw without dropping a set all week - nice.
Gonzo grabbed his fourth title at his home tourney, crushing good friend Jose Acasuso 6-1, 6-3 to win at Vina del Mar. The Chilean baller earned his 11th career ATP World Tour title and, like Jo-Willy, blew through his draw without dropping a single set.

By RFE/RL's Balkan Service
The group held a symbolic funeral for human rights in Sarajevo on December 10.
SARAJEVO – The Youth Initiative for Human Rights has staged mock burials in Bosnia-Herzegovina's three largest cities to mark international Human Rights Day.
In central Sarajevo, members of the group accompanied by a band playing funeral music marched through a pedestrian zone with a black coffin symbolizing the death of human rights.
One group member read a speech that said, "We are gathered here in order to bury human rights and freedom."
The speaker added that human rights don't exist in Bosnia.
Similar events were held in Banja Luka, the capital of the Bosnian Serb entity where ethnic Serbs are the majority, and in the ethnically divided city of Mostar, where the western part of the city is mainly inhabited by Bosnian Croats.

Diesel prices are up for second straight week, says Energy Information Administration
July 19, 2011
Diesel prices increased for the third time in 11 weeks, according to data from the Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration (EIA).
The average price per gallon for diesel went up 2.4 cents to $3.923 per gallon, following a 4.9 cent increase last week, which marked the single largest weekly gain since the week of April 4, when prices went up 4.4 cents to $3.976 per gallon.
Prior to this recent increases diesel prices had fallen a cumulative 27.4 cents since hitting a 2011 high of $4.124 per gallon the week of May 2. And this week's price per gallon is 20.1 cents less cumulatively since the week of May 2.
Compared to a year ago, diesel prices are up $1.024.
As diesel prices appear to be on the rise again, the price per barrel of crude oil is at $97.24 on the New York Mercantile Exchange, according to a Bloomberg report. The Bloomberg report noted that oil was up 1.4 after a government report showed that housing starts in the U.S. rose more than forecast in June to the fastest pace in five months.
Given the fluctuation—and still high prices—of diesel, shippers and carriers remain concerned about the price of diesel and oil. While many have indicated that prices at current levels are still digestible, they cautioned that could quickly change depending on how quickly prices rise with summer driving season officially here.
And even with declines in prices in recent weeks, the focus from a supply chain perspective for managing fuel price ebbs and flows—for shippers—is more on utilization and efficiency by doing things like driving empty miles out of transportation networks.
While diesel prices appear to be in check to a large degree for the time being, many industry observers maintain there is no real rhyme and reason in terms of fluctuating fuel prices.
"There has never been a period of volatility in fuel prices like there has been in the last year," said Mike Regan, president of TranzAct Technologies and a frequent blogger for LM, in a recent interview. "That means the fact that prices are down is no indication that the prices are going to stay down or rise sharply."

Meridian police say they responded to the scene of shooting about 12:10 a.m. Wednesday in a parking lot in the 2000 block of B Street. Police say the area has home to clubs known as Fusions and Club VIP.
Officials say four people were shot, with the most serious injury to a victim shot in the upper torso. 21-year-old Rocderickus Bourdeax of Meridian died of his injuries.
The other three victims had each been shot once with wounds to the leg, hand or lower torso. All three were transported to a local hospital for treatment, with at least one of them requiring surgery.
Police say they are examining evidence at this time and following leads, but no arrest has been made so far.
The MPD said it's certain there are witnesses who have not come forward yet. Officials ask for their help in solving this case. The Crimestoppers number is 601-485-1860. You do not have to give your name.

You wouldn't know it to watch him bouncing ever so slightly when he plays tuba, providing the bass lines, sometimes nearly hidden in the unlit back part of the stage behind the reed and brass of the Lagniappe Brass Band – or when the reed and brass line parts like the Red Sea to reveal him tearing it up on drums in an inspired solo – or when he's seen in the sunlight, on the weekend, on the streets of the Crescent City in a drum duet with his compatriot James Marotta – but by day Joshua Brown is a mechanical engineer. He lives and works – both jobs – right here in New Orleans and has been doing so since the middle of 2010.
He describes where he's from as "upstate New York, a town called Unadilla". He says, "I've been listening to brass band for a long time. I found out about it when I was in college and just latched on to it". But his musical influences are broader than brass band. His brother, who is five years older, played piano, and his parents played music in school. He says that in his house "music was valued". When Josh was growing up his parents listened to "classic rock" such as Deep Purple and Lynerd Skynerd, and his brother listened to Jerry Lee Lewis.
Josh's first instrument was actually the trombone at age of 9 or 10, then after that he picked up on drums. He played trombone seriously in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania with a funk band called Jaywalk and the Pedestrians. He did this for six years, but says, "I never felt it could feed me". When asked what turned him on to funk, he answers without hesitation, "Chameleon by the Headhunters – someone played it for me". Today he also lists the JB Horns, "Maceo Parker and Fred Wesley" as influences. About funk he says, "the feel was contagious".
To the question of what inspires him today, he doesn't have to think very long: "What drives me is the people I play with. What motivates me – is when I hear Wes Anderson (who also plays in the LBB) I think 'I wanna do that'. (As someone who started out playing trombone and still plays trombone, it makes sense that he would pick a trombonist as motivation.) Josh adds, "I want to contribute, I want to be part of it. We are pushing for a common goal."
If you would sneak a peek at his iPod, you would find James Brown, salsa, cubano music, Bennie Green the trombone player and Benny Green the pianist, jazz drummer and bandleader Art Blakey, Skynerd, "jug band", as well as Gene Krupa – as Josh puts it, "hot swing, happy jazz".
If queried as to what he brings to the LBB, he responds, "What I try to do is play the feel the best I can. I'm not big on soloing. I picture that we're the back line. If people aren't dancing, that's the back line. If they don't get the feeling of wow, that's the front line."
Joshua Brown feels that in the foreseeable future, "I think I'm going to have a decision to make: Full-time musician or not – but I'm gonna keep playing."

Andy Sturdevant will appear on Monday, November 4, 2013 at 6:30 pm at the Rum River Library as part of the Club Book program. Rum River Library is located at 4201 6th Avenue in Anoka.
Club Book, a program of the Metropolitan Library Service Agency (MELSA) and coordinated by the Library Foundation of Hennepin County, is bringing best-selling and award-winning national and regional authors to library communities across the seven-county metropolitan region.
"If you're looking for someone who is always on the cutting edge of the Twin Cities art scene, Andy Sturdevant is your man," according to Minnesota Public Radio. Andy has written about art, history and culture for a variety of Twin Cities-based publications and websites, including mnartists.org, Rain Taxi, Mpls.St.Paul Magazine, and heavytable.com. He has been the host of Salon-Saloon and also writes a weekly column on arts and visual culture for MinnPost. He will present his first book, Potluck Supper with Meeting to Follow, which was published by Coffee House Press in October 2013 to coincide with his solo show at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. This genre-bending collection reveals the essayist as pied piper and artist, whose canvas is the city.
"If you're interested in Keillor-esque observations and a multi-dimensional perspective of the Twin Cities art scene, Andy is the guy," said Anoka County Commissioner Jim Kordiak.
"Just like a potluck, his new book includes a wide variety of essays," said Library Board Vice President Melanie Keister, "Join us to talk about the ways community art touches our everyday lives."
This program is free and open to the public but seating is limited. Seating is first come, first seated. Books will be available for purchase and signing.

Moraga, CA (Sports Network) - Beau Levesque scored 18 points off the bench as
the St. Mary's Gaels completed a 74-46 rout of the Pacific Tigers in a non-
conference tilt at McKeon Pavilion.
Matthew Dellavedova tallied 17 points, eight assists, and six rebounds for SMC
(8-2) in its fourth consecutive victory. Mitchell Young added 11 points and
rebounds while Jorden Page scored 10 points.
Khalil Kelley paced Pacific (5-6) with 11 points and Lorenzo McCloud managed
to produce 10 points despite going 0-of-5 from the field. The Tigers, who
defeated SMC by 10 points on Nov. 23, have now lost back-to-back games.
The Gaels dominated on both ends of the floor in the first half to build a
36-17 halftime lead. They drained 42.3 percent of their attempts from the
field and held a 21-15 edge in the rebounding battle while holding Pacific to
28 percent shooting from the floor in the opening 20 minutes.
Although the Tigers improved after the break to hit 38.9 percent of their
field goal attempts and 14-of-16 at the free throw line, SMC pulled down 13
offensive rebounds in the second half to create extra possessions and
eliminate possibility of a comeback by Pacific.
The Gaels held a dominant 44-24 edge in the rebounding battle and sank 10-
of-30 attempts from beyond the arc. The Tigers were able to make just 1-of-8
shots from distance.

JMU coach no stranger to WVU, Mountain State
WHEN WEST VIRGINIA plays James Madison this Saturday, rest assured the Dukes' coach will be familiar with the Mountaineers. He knows the program. He knows the coaches. He knows the state. And all know Mickey Matthews, a former assistant for Jim Donnan at Marshall from 1990-95. "My kids," Matthews said, "still call Huntington home." As mentioned, he knows WVU's coaches - past and present. "[Steve] Dunlap is a great friend," Matthews said. "And I know [Dana] Holgorsen. Hal Mumme and I worked together in Texas and [Holgorsen] is a Hal Mumme disciple. I know [ex-WVU assistant Bill] Kirelawich. I knew [ex-head coach] Rich Rodriguez when he was at Glenville. He'd come down and watch us at Marshall. "Heck, West Virginia is just two mountains over [from Harrisonburg, Va.]." Matthews also knows the Mountain State through tragedy. He last saw Dunlap and Kirelawich, for instance, at the wake of former WVU coach Bill Stewart. "I went to the wake and saw Dunlap and Kirelawich there," Matthews said. "It was kind of hard on all of us. Bill was a great friend." Matthews also has received support. See, the story of his son Clayton is perhaps the most touching in all of college sports. In August of 2003, Clayton Matthews improbably broke his neck twice in separate car accidents, leaving him paralyzed below the chest. Today, however, the son, confined to a wheelchair, is his father's assistant coach for wide receivers and kickers. Clayton lives independently. He coaches with veracity. He recruits. "His tongue ain't paralyzed," said the father. After Clayton and his mother, Kay, were returning from a medical visit in Charlottesville, Va., and crashed in a rain storm, the family was devastated when Matthews broke his neck for the second time. "But we probably received the most support from those in West Virginia," said the head coach. Perhaps that's why his kids consider the state home. But this Saturday all will be trying to defeat the Mountaineers at FedEx Field in Landover, Md., a suburb of Washington. "It'll be great," Matthews said. "When I was approached about it, I figured it would be just like a home game. D.C. is JMU country. The problem is, I didn't realize the tickets would be $100 apiece. "I thought we'd have 20,000 people there, but we won't because of the price." Matthews laughed. "I'd rather play there, though, because I didn't want to go to Morgantown." Matthews said while WVU will get $2.3 million to play the game, his school is receiving $350,000. "I thought it was a good deal," said the JMU coach. "But when I watched the Orange Bowl, I thought, 'Who in the world agreed to that game?' I didn't feel very smart." Matthews is candid about the setup. "WVU scheduled a victory," he said. "When they scheduled Marshall and JMU, they scheduled two wins. "We think we have a good team, though. We're not going to back down. You don't have to tell our players who we're playing." Understand JMU is not a pushover. The Dukes entered the weekend ranked No. 6 in the FCS coaches poll. In 2010 the team defeated Virginia Tech 21-16 in Blacksburg. Some have suggested this might be a better test for No. 9 WVU than Marshall. "I don't know," Matthews said. "Marshall had wholesale changes on defense. I like to think we're as good as Marshall. I don't know a lot about [Marshall's] personnel, but we recruit a lot against them." One player WVU will have to focus on is JMU quarterback Justin Thorpe, who Matthews has called one of the nation's best. "He's a good player," said the coach. "He can run and throw. Two years ago, he broke his leg. Last year, he was suspended for a while. "Now, how he'll look on the same field as [WVU's] Geno Smith, I don't know. I don't know how Johnny Unitas would look on the same field as Geno Smith. But [Thorpe] believes he'll do well." Matthews pointed to WVU's Smith, Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey as the collective key. "Those three offensive guys at WVU are the whole deal," Matthews said. "They might be the three best in college football. If Geno doesn't win the Heisman, he'll be in New York. And those other two will be carrying his suitcases." Matthews knows. After all, he's just two mountains away. Reach Mitch Vingle at 304-348-4827, firstname.lastname@example.com or follow him at twitter.com/mitchvingle.

Our look into the future begins with a familiar format: a meeting, taking place in the United States, which is still where the money is, and where for that reason strategic and operational issues are vetted for execution in a thoroughly global pharmaceutical organization. What is different is that the CEO is a female and her team is convening at the ungodly hour of 3 a.m. for that important monthly conversation with division heads from facilities and offices around the world. Since most of the R&D, production, packaging, clinical trials, medical communications, regulatory affairs, and pharmacovigilance activities take place in India or China, where it is mid-afternoon, the meetings are held at this time.
Before the meeting began, several of the officers were reminiscing about the days in the early 2000s when most of those functions were performed in the United States. Some lamented those middle management colleagues who had passed on the opportunity to learn Mandarin earlier in their careers and now faced more limited career prospects.
It's worth taking a closer look at the strategic forces underpinning today's discussion. Surprisingly, sales leadership in the industry has remained remarkably stable, with few new entrants to the top-10 players—Israeli-based Teva is the exception that proves the rule, having earned a place on the list by combining state-of-the-art efficiencies around low-end generics with a growing stake in biosimilars and innovative specialty drugs. As was the case with Japanese companies in the 1990s, promising mid-sized European and emerging country drug makers failed to achieve global scale by capitalizing on a profitable domestic base—the fiscal debt crisis earlier in the last decade froze prospects for forward sales momentum in place.There is no longer any drug production in Europe, Japan, or the United States. Since nearly all of the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) in a drug now come from Asia, it makes sense to complete the final dosage forms in nearby factories where labor costs are a small fraction of those in the United States, Western Europe, or Japan. Moreover, leaders of governments in the emerging market countries have become aggressive in providing incentives for Big Pharma to construct facilities there as a way to generate more local employment. Since the API is synthesized in Asia and dosage form manufacturing is also performed there, it is only reasonable for manufacturers to take further advantage of reduced labor and transportation costs and to prepare the packaging in the same countries.
Perhaps the most important function within companies in 2020 is the group that negotiates the purchase of licenses for new product candidates. This division has subsumed the previous importance of the R&D department; much of the in-house discovery research function was either eliminated or outsourced between 2010 and 2015, a time which also coincided with the peak of the patent-expiration cliff. The lackluster performance in generating new molecules in-house convinced the management of most Big Pharma firms that this was no longer a cost-effective option. The capability which remains has been organized with operational efficiencies uppermost in mind: most companies place their bets on development work in only four or five areas where they have specialized expertise or good contacts in biotech or academia.
Today, in 2020, the company's vice president for licensing travels constantly, visiting smaller pharma laboratories in Slovenia, Croatia, Greece, Turkey, Israel, Korea, and California as well as in the Philadelphia and Boston areas. The department has two functions: licensing in new drug or biological candidates, as well as purchasing minority interests in some of the companies licensing their lead/promising products. Most of those agreements call for options for the large pharmaceutical manufacturers to purchase additional shares and even gain majority ownership according to milestone agreements based upon the likely success of the candidate products.
Let's now take a look at some other departments and functions in this new world of 2020.

|City Council reviews 2012 finances; no concerns found
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
Holyoke City Council received good news at the Tuesday, May 21 council meeting as Scott Szabo from Lauer, Szabo & Associates, PC presented the 2012 audit report.
"From a fund balance standpoint, you guys are in really good shape," Szabo told the council.
Szabo noted that from a financial statement standpoint, there are no concerns at all and that the report was scheduled to be submitted to the state Wednesday, May 22.
The city's general fund increased by $140,550 over the year to bring the total to $1,150,131.
Assets exceeded liabilities at the end of the 2012 fiscal year by $14,330,472. Of this amount, $6,882,790 may be used to meet the city's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
Due to an increase in governmental activities of $11,881 and an increase of business-type activities of $716,684, total net assets increased $704,803 in the year.
At the close of 2012, the unreserved fund balance of the general fund was $1,099,343, approximately 60 percent of the total fiscal year general fund expenditures.
City clerk/treasurer Kathy Olofson informed board members that Great Outdoors Colorado has rejected the city's application.
Holyoke was looking to secure $110,000 for improvements to be made at the Holyoke baseball facility.
Out of the 51 applications, GOCO will be funding just eight of the proposed projects. Four of the eight projects are from smaller communities.
The next grant cycle will take place in August with results announced in December. Olofson mentioned that perhaps going after the mini grants might be worth considering as they tend to be less competitive.
City Superintendent Mark Brown noted that the citywide cleanup went smoothly, although the city collected a little less than expected. Crews hauled away 43 loads of wood and three compacted loads in the trash truck, down from 54 total loads in 2012.
Holyoke Police Chief Doug Bergstrom reported that from May 2-15, there were 80 calls for service, one arrest, one citation given out, nine reports written and 11 warnings given.
In other business May 21, the council:
—accepted the 2012 audit report.
—hired and set wages for the month of June for summer recreation coaches as follows: Laura Gerk, softball, $1,200; Chandler Gerk, softball, $800; Kendra Schlachter, softball, $800; John Zilla, baseball, $1,000; Matt Zilla, baseball, $900; and Sherman Kage, baseball, $800. During May, coaches will be paid $8 per hour.
—renewed the option to all elected and appointed officials, specifically municipal judge and city attorney, to join the health and dental insurance group plan, with them paying 100 percent of their monthly premium at any tier of coverage.
—accepted a bid from Nick Ferguson Trucking LLC to haul aggregate at an estimated price of $4,000.
—agreed to a request by Phillips County to expand the bike/pedestrian path north of the fairgrounds.

from Bobbi Leitsch
1 package (8 ½ ounces) corn bread/muffin mix according to package directions…
stir in:
1 - 4 ounce can chopped green chilies, undrained
1/8 tsp. ground cumin
1/8 tsp. dried oregano
a pinch of rubbed sage
Bake according to directions on box or recipe. Cool and gently crumble. (BIG crumbs)
1 (1 oz.) pkg. Hidden Valley Ranch dry salad dressing mix
1 c. sour cream
1 c. mayonnaise
2 (16 oz.) cans pinto beans, drained
2 - 15 ounce cans whole kernel golden sweet corn, drained
3 lg. tomatoes, chopped
1 cup chopped green pepper
1 bunch, finely chopped green onions
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Place half of crumbled cornbread in the bottom of a large serving bowl with straight sides or a 13 X 9" pyrex baking dish. Top with half of each of the beans, mayonnaise mixture, and corn. Combine tomatoes, pepper, and onions- layer on half of this mixture, followed by ½ the bacon and cheese. Repeat layers using remaining ingredients.
Garnish as desired.
Cover and chill 2-3 hours or overnight before serving.
* Notes:
- It's easier to make in a bowl, less surface area to spread out layers of ingredients.
- You may use your favorite corn bread recipe instead of a mix, just need to make the equivalent of a 9 X 9" pan of cornbread.
- I mixed 1 can of black beans with 1 can of pinto beans, some recipes call for kidney beans.
- 4 cups of fresh corn shaved from the cob is a tasty alternative to canned!
