Susquehanna wins third straight and captures Bluestone Trophy
High School Football
SUSQUEHANNA - Capitalizing on Montrose miscues, No. 10 Susquehanna won its third straight game, beating its rival, 35-0, Friday in a Lackawanna Football Conference Division III game.
And, more importantly, captured the Bluestone Trophy.
With a 14-0 lead, Susquehanna (4-3 overall, 2-0 in Division III) seized control of the game in the second half.
After Austin White scored his second touchdown, the Sabers turned two fumbles into points in less than a minute to pull away.
One play after the first turnover, White weaved his way through the defense for his third rushing touchdown and a 28-0 lead with 5:03 left in the third.
White led the Sabers with 108 yards rushing on 11 carries. He also threw a 35-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter.
On its next possession, Montrose (0-7, 0-3) fumbled again, this time giving the Sabers the ball in scoring position.
Two plays later, Austin Felter cashed in with a 2-yard run to give Susquehanna a 35-0 lead with 4:11 remaining in the quarter.
Montrose had trouble moving the ball against a fired up Susquehanna defense. The Meteors managed only two first downs and 66 total yards in 30 plays.
"Our defense has played well all season long, keeping us in certain games so it was nice to see them able to dominate tonight" Susquehanna coach Kyle Cook said.
The first time Montrose reached Susquehanna territory came on their final drive in the fourth that started at the Sabers 35-yard line.
However, it stalled at the 8, as the Meteors turned it over on downs with 3:18 left.

David Duchovny, 35, star of Fox's otherworldly hit The X-Files, and his girlfriend, actress Perrey Reeves, late 20s, have called it quits. Their reps say that the split is an amicable one. The couple met while shopping in 1992 at Fred Segal Santa Monica, a-clothing store....
Sandra Bullock will soon be producing, directing and starring in a low-budget short film she wrote, Making Sandwiches. A romance, it will costar Matthew McConaughey, who also appears with her in the movie version of John Grisham's A Time to Kill, due out this summer. Bullock is busy leaning on her celeb friends to make cameo appearances in the short....
In the forthcoming CBS miniseries Every Knee Shall Bow, Randy Quaid will play white separatist Randy Weaver, and Laura Dern will play his wife, Vicki, who was shot and killed, along with their 14-year-old son, Samuel, by federal agents during the 1992 siege at the couple's Idaho home.

Onetime TV talk show host Bertice Berry, 35, claims in her new autobiography, due later this month from Scribner, that she is the illegitimate daughter of the late Otis Redding. In Bertice: The World According to Me, Berry writes that her mother, Beatrice, broke the news to her in 1991, telling her she was the result of a one-night stand with Redding after a 1960 concert in Chester, Pa. Berry says her unmarried mother never told Redding, a married man, about the pregnancy and never tried to contact him after Bertice was born. Redding died in the aftermath of a plane crash in 1967, when Bertice was 7 years old. When we called the singer's widow, Zelma Redding, she said, "Otis Redding had three children [Dexter, 35, Karla, 33, Otis III, 31], and he had them all with me."...

When I asked the family how many stars they thought this should get the answer all but one was 5 stars! The other? 500!!!! This is an easy to follow, gorgeous looking recipe! I used spicer nacho cheese tortilla chips! Fnatastic flavor! Most of the family dipped these in sour cream. Me? I went for garlic ranch dressing! The family asked me when I was going to make these again (and they never like anything close together, so I think ti say this was a HIT is a major understatement! Thanks Annelies for sharing this tasty recipe with us all.
I was a little confused by the seasoned flour as you did not mention what kind of seasonings to use or I'm guessing they make seasoned flour. Since I didn't have any of that on hand I just added salt, pepper and a few dashes of red pepper. These certainly got nice and crunchy, easy to make.
Awesome recipe! I've made similar ones before where you coat chicken in doritos or other chips, but this one is the best so far since you actually fried it in oil...the rest I've done were done in the oven and just didn't have that nice crunch that these had. These were really easy and tasty too! I'll be making these again, and it will be fun to experiment with the different flavors of Doritos that are out there. Thanks for posting!
Oh I loved this. I used some fresh chopped chives and minced some garlic along with some cayenne and black pepper - making my own personalized seasoned flour and I used a spicy cheese flavoured tortilla chips. I enjoyed these lots but a lot of the tortilla chips came off during the cooking process. Maybe I coated it to thick? Anyway, I fished out the tortilla pieces and put them on the plate anyway and dipped the fingers in fry sauce and put on some of those stray tortilla chip pieces in each bite. YUM! I think I will bake these next time just to keep all the chips on there. Thanks for sharing. Made for Pets'R'us Cook-a-thon - LiveStrong!
These were wonderful very chrispy and easy easy easy to prepare
I made this for the Photo Swap and must say, these were great, we really enjoyed them. I used chilli flavoured tortilla crisps, so I just used salt and pepper to flavour the flour. I served them with salsa and oven fries. Easy to make and really satisfying! Thanks for sharing. Hope you like the pic! ;)

The Joy of Capital Spending
India's Top 20 Pharma companies are upgrading facilities to proactively enjoy Pharma market opportunities
India's top 20 pharmaceutical companies are increasing capital expenditures by 40 percent to take advantage of market opportunities to come, says a report from CRISIL, a global analytical company providing ratings, research, risk and policy advisory services. The article, which appeared on The Economic Times of India website, attributes the CapEx increase in India to the fact that the country's "drug makers are expected to pay greater attention to regulated markets, especially the U.S. market, and to take advantage of substantial patent expiries expected in the medium term, as well as an ever-increasing demand for generics."
There's been no shortage of criticism of India's pharmaceutical industry and its drug-quality lapses. A…

Mature Quality Systems: What Pharma Can Learn from Other Industries
Pharma can take inspiration from industries with mature quality systems and advanced quality capabilities
Quality has a special meaning in pharmaceuticals, where production or distribution errors can jeopardize human life. But other industries face similar challenges, and some have developed sophisticated quality systems. As pharmaceutical companies look for ways to improve their quality practices and performance, they can take ideas from these quality leaders and adapt them for pharma.
Quality can be defined in various ways, from "fitness for purpose" to "meeting customer expectations" to predictability in statistical terms. Each industry understands quality differently, and priorities depend on the specifics of products and markets. In the automotive industry, for instance, companies generally define quality as the ability to meet…

On Solid Ground: Pharma's Most Mature Dosage Form Endures
Oral solid dose manufacturers may not be reinventing the wheel – but they are fine-tuning it
Looking back on the history of the pharmaceutical industry, it's very much an evolving practice, with new knowledge bringing continuous improvements. Copious trial and error has brought us an industry very different from that of 150 years ago. And yet, one methodology has survived the decades essentially intact. The basic oral solid dose manufacturing methodology used today is very similar to the OSD manufacturing of the past — and that's not necessarily a bad thing.
In 1843, British painter/author/inventor William Brockedon patented an invention that compressed sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate in a tube, to form solid tablets. Eliminating the need for moisture to bind ingredients in the pill making process, Brockedon's…

'Future-proofing' Serialization Solutions
The key to creating an optimal implementation strategy is to select a serialization solution that has strong capabilities at all levels of technology
The complexities surrounding product serialization for pharmaceutical and medical device companies are immense. While current serialization requirements are limited to marking the unit of sale with a unique data carrier, by 2023 the process will require a product to be traceable through the entirety of its journey - from the individual package through the carton/pallet to its final point of distribution. In the United States, the Healthcare Distribution Management Association (HDMA) is suggesting that pharmaceutical companies begin to support this level of serialization, called aggregation, now. Around the world - in Europe and Asia in particular - disparate track and trace practices are incrementally moving toward a global standard that…

Yesterday, Lawrence Yu, FDA's Deputy Director, wrote a blog post about a landmark event for continuous manufacturing.
The FDA has approved -- for the first time in history -- a manufacturer's production method change from "batch" to continuous manufacturing.
This new approval is for manufacturing Janssen Products' medication for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, Prezista (darunavir), at Janssen's Gurabo, Puerto Rico, plant.
While even the FDA admits the transition from batch to continuous is "not easy," the agency is encouraged by the fact that it is seeing a growing number of manufacturers working towards building continuous manufacturing into their processes.
For Janssen, the decision to introduce CM…

IFPAC 2016 Conference
Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow could keep me from finding the lastest technology
The 2016 IFPAC conference venue was a combination of a "good news/bad news" statement: the good news was that its location placed it within a short drive/Metro ride from FDA's headquarters in Maryland. The bad news? It was held in late January…and despite protests to the contrary, it always snows in the N. Virginia-DC area in January. And, my goodness, did it snow this year; nearly three feet, in some places, making travel, at best, difficult (a five-hour wait for a cab?). Despite the delayed and cancelled trains, planes, and automobiles, run, the conference did. And, based on some of the papers I attended, it was worth the effort.

A recent Form 483 faults Indian drugmaker Glenmark Pharmaceuticals for neglecting multiple controls in its procedures at its Pithampur facility.
According to FDAnews, the 483 cites the generic manufacturer for three observations following an inspection of the facility between Feb. 22 and Feb. 26. It was the firm's second 483 in less than a year. Last July the company was written up after an inspection revealed concerns about facility conditions, its apparent failure to follow cleaning procedures for equipment and its identification of drug samples for written specification checks.
Glenmark previously disclosed that it had received the 483, but refused to discuss the details, saying only that all the allegations had been addressed.

Inspection success begins with awareness of the challenges and obstacles, and continues with ongoing preparation and frequent inspection readiness
When it comes to being prepared for an inspection from a regulatory authority, the combination of practice and preparation will often make the difference between success and failure. Contract Development Manufacturing Organizations (CDMO) that are routinely successful in these inspections are aware of the pitfalls and obstacles and incorporate a plan for compliance into their company culture. The chances for success increase greatly in those companies where awareness of how to achieve a successful inspection is a priority. And while it is possible that a CDMO could get through one or two inspections, it is unlikely their success will continue if they do not stay abreast of what regulatory authorities are demanding to achieve compliance.

Four proven approaches to replicating success of a pilot quality transformation throughout the network
Transforming quality in an entire organization that comprises thousands of production steps and employees and tens of thousands of SKUs is one of the most difficult challenges for any pharmaceutical company. By nature, every pharmaceutical product is unique, which means its production process cannot be standardized. By nature, every person working on a line is unique, which means a standardized intervention will not always work. Although pharmacos have found that significant management attention can foster a successful pilot of a quality transformation on the shop floor, scaling the transformation across a network has been an elusive goal for many.

Raw material storage and conveyance is fundamental to quality assurance and profitability. Increasingly, this environment also has become integral to the rigorous regulatory requirements for tracking and tracing products throughout the supply chain. To meet quality and standardization objectives, a design solution must be based on an overview of the entire process from delivery of raw materials to the manufacturing site to delivery of product ingredients to the manufacturing line.

How to Select the Right Compressed Air System
Each application requires a different level of air quality and a different combination of air treatment to meet the needed specs
In the pharmaceutical industry, compressed air is used for a number of production and packaging applications, including blowing off and drying bottles prior to filling, conveying pills, providing air for pneumatically controlled valves and cylinders, as well as breathing air systems.
Each of these applications requires a different level of air quality and a different combination of air treatment to meet the needed quality. Because the uses of compressed air within the industry vary so greatly, there is no set standard in place that every process must adhere to.
While the FDA may not have issued a directive for compressed air quality in the pharmaceutical industry, there is still a resource available to help select appropriate air treatment…

"Lego" inspired control concept from Festo creates a better fitting, economical method to automate this critical utility
Almost anyone can recognize the practicality associated with the concept of modularity. To the many engineers who busy themselves designing, engineering and constructing complex pharma processing systems, the idea of managing such complexity by breaking it down into standardized subsystems and components is a well understood and pragmatic approach to system design. According to Festo, such is the case with automation and control. Modular systems, say Festo, speed up the design and configuration of automated processes, lower overall costs, and make a process like water filtration more flexible and therefore better at adapting to new operational requirements and responsive to market demands.
"This approach represents a fundamental shift in…

I consider myself a connoisseur of late-night pizza. With this prestigious distinction comes a fair amount of interest in the happenings of popular pizza chains (as well as a fair amount of weight gain). My favorite sales and marketing turnaround story is Domino's Pizza.
Faced with more than two years of declining sales and brand surveys ranking them number one in convenience and dead last in quality, Domino's brought in a new chief marketing officer in 2008. The new CMO launched an amazing self-deprecating marketing strategy that basically said, "So we've heard our pizza tastes worse than the box it's packaged in, and we are going to do something about this" and featured colorful complaints and commentary from actual…

Bristol-Myers Squibb completed a major expansion at its Devens, MA, biologics facility designed to accelerate development of the company's portfolio of biologics medicines.
The $280 million project adds two new buildings to the 89-acre Devens campus: a Biologics Development Building for designing processes for the early production of investigational medicines, and a Clinical Manufacturing Building where investigational medicines will be produced to support clinical trials. Both are new capabilities for Devens, a site that had previously focused solely on large-scale, bulk biologics manufacturing.

Compulsive or uncontrollable urges to gamble, binge eat, shop, and have sex have been reported with the use of the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning that compulsive or uncontrollable urges to gamble, binge eat, shop and have sex have been reported with the use of the antipsychotic drug aripiprazole (Abilify, Abilify Maintena, Aristada, and generics). These uncontrollable urges were reported to have stopped when the medicine was discontinued or the dose was reduced. These impulse-control problems are rare, but they may result in harm to the patient and others if not recognized.
Although pathological gambling is listed as a reported side effect in the current aripiprazole drug labels, this description does not entirely reflect the nature of the impulse-control risk that was identified. In addition, FDA has become aware of other…

"High Desert Ghost Town with Geological Oddity" Fort Rock by atufft
Fort Rock Travel Guide: 16 reviews and 82 photos
When most people think of Oregon, they think of the rain drenched Williamette Valley, or maybe the snow covered Cascades. But, actually the rain shadow of the high desert region of Oregon--which is part of the North America's Big Basin region-- makes up at least half of the state. Oregon penetrates deeper east into the continent than California, and so this eastern region is much like the state of Nevada to its south, part of a region that also includes much of Utah and southern Idaho, and was once North America's largest inland body of water. The earliest evidence of humans in America have been found in Oregon on the shores of this now bone dry lake bed. What's left of the inland sea is the sizeable Great Salt Lake. Now, this part of the Great Basin is mostly desert with sage brush and tumble weed being the sole surviving vegetation. At the base of the Cascades, there is a surprisingly abrupt transition from ponderosa pine tree forest to this open sage brush desert. The forest stops, and for a moment a few independent minded Ponderosa pines mingle among the sage brush, but for only a few hundred yards.
A few miles off Oregon highway 31 (which is in turn off Hwy 97 south of Bend, OR) into this region and one comes to the remarkable geological feature known as Fort Rock. The name is given for the unique crown shaped arrangement of rock, which from a distance appears deceptively like a mesa butte, and on the first go around, I made the mistake of simply driving by the dirt road exit because of this misperception. More recently, I returned and scaled the highest peak in this crown of volcanic rock.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the Bureau of Land Management promoted homesteading in this region, a tragic land swindle of sorts that brought naive ranchers from all over the world to farm this barren and inhospitable land. But this was well before the current period of deep water drilling through the bedrock some 200 feet below the surface, and so farming was virtually impossible. The homesteaders suffered and abandoned the place, most moving to nearby Bend and other places in Oregon. The last homesteaders consolidated around the tiny village of Fort Rock. In the modern period, the BLM and ranchers scheduled a burn and bulldoze of the remaining homestead homes and commercial buildings, but a society created by pioneer descendents formed to save and move what they could into the arrangement that remains today. There's a museum staffed by senior citizens who were once the children of the pioneers who lived in these homes, went to the school, and worshiped in the church. Visitors to Rock Fort and nearby Christmas Valley are guaranteed to appreciate some of the most off-the-beaten-path tourism within the United States.

So after seeing this-a bit barren-I will keep searching for terrain in you area
Hey Alan, this is an interesting geological feature. Great job capturing this little spot.
Nice to see a bit of information about this feature of our state.
Well worth the sidetrip off OR 31, which for many is a sidetrip to begin with :-]
The pictures remind me of the area of California east of the Sierras near Lee Vining and the ghost town of Bodie. Nice page!
It looks like a mesa butte to me, also, I wouldn't have turned of either, unless I had some knowledge of it before hand. Interesting formation.

Imagine Dragons are very quietly becoming the band you cannot ignore. Not with two singles in the Billboard Hot 100 (an accomplishment only two other rock acts — Fun. and Maroon 5 — can match), a pair of eye-catching music videos and a sold-out North American tour underway. It's been a pretty remarkable rise, enough to make anyone — the band included — stop and take notice.
"Honestly, none of us could have been prepared for this last year. For us, the past four years have been a slow, organic growth, and this past year has been a skyrocket," frontman Dan Reynolds said. "I guess we prepared as much as we could for it, but I think I it would be a sad day when, as an artist, you're not celebrating success. If there comes a day where we're like 'Oh, our single went platinum … big whoop,' then I think that's a day we deserve to no longer have any success, because there are so many artists that are working so hard out there that deserve any success like we've had."
And they'll look to build on that success with the release of their brand-new single, "Demons," which they've just shot a video for — one that incorporates live footage shot at their hometown show in Las Vegas earlier this month with a storyline. If all goes according to plan, the clip will fit nicely with the artful imagery of "It's Time" and the thoroughly out-there puppet grappling of "Radioactive," and only continue the band's string of hits. So long as they don't find a way to screw it up, that is.
"Between the four of us, we're probably too hands on with things at times; we like to have full creative control, and every video we've done we've put together on our own, and either hand-picked the director or the script, and we certainly plan on continuing to do that, for better or worse … probably for worse most of the time," Reynolds laughed. "A lot of our favorite videos were sometimes the more serious or brooding ones … but a lot of our favorite videos growing up were like the Foo Fighters' clips, where they didn't always take themselves too seriously and thought outside the box. So every video will be different; we like to keep our fans on their toes."

Put to the test
That can not be true, I do not know now you're acting like a little kid, but really, like a little schoolgirl from any opera that is disobedient and very clichéd! So I can not work with you. Pull yourself together yet again, concentrate and listen quite simply on this lovely story on the course, you're supposed to be a student like any other, no one ever wants to dance from the series and enforce their own head. Talks to itself every person, not just students. Internalized that please. You know that already so a literature course, as you shall not digress dream into strange worlds, no, that would not see a professor from you. He wants that you are obedient to you the lecture entirely Lead to heart, left alone act on you. One can still tell anyone that you're so old already, you could be my you're still a little schoolgirl. It was always my dream to make you happy, you are the dream, the dream of the sleepless nights, at least for 18 and a half years old, or maybe a little older. I'm on such a young, to young students with versuten naughty ideas and concepts.
But I imagine usually a few things, before all this when I think, or a thought of teenage crushes in my head spread and some poems the blood flowing takes to bring your abdomen for noise and tremble, I will namely dizzy when I just wasting the thoughts of students like you're a who just turned 18, are still guaranteed to dirty men's dreams. Take sexual stimuli from the environment, but most were. I can imagine how it looks in your head when you're sitting in class listening to your professor and your thoughts into wild fantasies deepen in dirty revelations that older men could now be with you. Would not that be a much better approach to follow at this time, as a Professor and their reading.
It is difficult even if it is at eight to focus entirely on the new topic of the professor, who has only one goal, which convey the new fabric gently. He succeeds only partially or not at all because of this early period are young girls, students still not awake, her body is still asleep.
But now I realize that it is surprised a very special way such well suppress a fresh "intelligence", which helps slow with you outside. Not only are you dreaming of a certain literature or philosophy of the day to put that rushing through lewd words in the ears. The body tightly., Very tightly around loops and the silent mysteries and inclinations closer touch and dedicate themselves to the game, the play on words of affection quite Excuse me if I say something discreet, another consummate act of gender.
That you would be safe rather than at this time to follow the professor sitting on the cold chair and his remarks be all ears. Again and again you from schweifst in the underworld combined with fetish, grants with whips, leather, latex and more. She does it feel to wear this cold material on the skin moisturised with oil greasy, slippery, almost quaint town. Again your eyes wander over the partially empty seats of the auditorium, as it should be otherwise, at this time the young female students are of course still in bed. Before half past nine in the morning moves as good as nothing. I want to waste absolutely no thought of what others are doing at my age? Whether you were at a fetish party, they celebrated with their joys, or simply just organized a wild sex orgies. That would certainly have been right for me. Unfortunately, I can only these thoughts on my quiet spot not share in my classroom with this deckigen thoughts. This dirty thoughts I would much rather put into reality. Best with a slightly older man, well built, dark-haired and of course shaved. Shaving should naturally extend to the entire body. I like men who are not unshaven and unkempt. The view through the auditorium hang my eyes remain on a young man where I think, not much older than I am. That's all, a real man with broad shoulders, dark hair almost a sex symbol. But enough of the many dreams of the day begins once more and I'm not getting these thoughts out of my head. Am I a sex addict. Are students at my age a little earlier mature? So what should be there and at least I try to concentrate on the conversation of the professor, who kept trying to push us his material on which I honestly ever interested me because my eyes are almost by itself, out of sheer exhaustion.

"ISABELA ISLAND GALAPAGOS GROUP OF ISLANDS" Isla Isabela by DennyP
Isla Isabela Travel Guide: 43 reviews and 318 photos
The largest of all the Islands in the Archipeligo and named after Queen Isabela of Spain, Isabela Island is also one of the youngest in the group. The English named the Island Albermarle after the Duke of Albermarle.
Inundated with active Volcanoes this is one of the most volcanic active areas in the world. Located not far from the hotspot where it originated Isabela is easily recognised as it is the largest and shaped like a seahorse. Sierra Negra is the most active volcano on earth.
My visit here some years ago was a short one but I can still remember the climb up to the top the mountain over extremely rough solidified"magma" lava flow that was very uneven and dificult to walk on. The reward at the top looking back to the small beach below I remember was a very rewarding site. The thought is always there though that these are the most active volcanoes in the world. The vegetation was sparse mainly large catus and animal life sparse. appatently there are many large Galapagos tortoise to be seen although the lava flows created a problem restricting their movements ,there are large numbers here on Isabela.
The Marine life to be seen on Isabela is abundant also is the prolific birdlife.To be seen here the waters edge are Marine Iguanas , Land Iguanas, bright red Sally Lightfoot crabs, different species of Galapagos tortoise, unfortunately feral rats that tend to decimate the birdlife, Also large groups of feral goats that have also plundered the plants and foliage. A recent eradication programme by the department of wildlife has removed they say over 100.000.
For me I am always attracted by the birdlife and once again here there are many Blue footed Boobies to be found nesting...although they are primarily a seabird they use these Islands to nest. Also are Galapagos Hawks, Cormorants ,and penguins , Pink Flamingoes also can be seen in the lagoon.
- Pros:ANOTHER ISLAND IN THIS AMAZING ARCHIPELIGO
- Cons:NEVER ENOUGH TIME HERE

Step 2
This is the most important part! Over the tracing paper, carefully lay the fabric flat. The elastic edging will be stretched, but the fabric itself shouldn't be stretched - this is how to make sure the shape stays exactly as needed.
Use a ruler or small weights to hold it in place while tracing. Then, while laid flat, but not stretched, measure the elastic seam of the front, back and side (leg hole) and note for when we cut the FOE.
Step 4
Now cut out a lining piece using the pattern and either by folding (or cutting the pattern in half at the seam line you've drawn), cut out the front and back piece but add an extra 1/2 inch on both pieces at the sides and at the line where the pieces will join (for the seam allowances). Transfer placement markings for the lining, so you end up with 3 pieces.
Step 7
Now cut out the FOE for the front, back and both legs using your measurements. Sew on the FOE to the front and back with a wide triple zig-zag stitch (5.0 wide by 2.0 long).
The trick here is to slightly stretch the FOE while sewing. It's easiest to pin the top and bottom ends of the FOE in place and then stretch the FOE as you sew to make sure there's the perfect amount of give and still fit just right. DO NOT stretch your fabric - this will affect the fit.
Repeat with the leg hole areas.
why didnt i think of this is all i am saying as i kick my self in the behind ! i have so many allergies that i hate to shop for panties ! i am going to try with a Bra too !
love this project, its so simple and cost efective, brilliant.
I did this for my kids years ago with cute fabric from the discount store and saved TONS of money. If the exposed elastic irritates, you can leave a little more allowance at the leg holes and fold over the elastic and fabric and stitch again.
yay!!i've been looking for a pantie tutorial
haha...VERY creative!!!
hmmm nice
Make my own undies???? I LOVE you! I honestly never would have thought of this.

Parks & Rec teamwork impacts citizens' health
At Tunica Parks & Recreation, the name of the game is "partnering."
Recreation director Billy Willis' involvement with the Regional Health Council and its local affiliate is just one more way the recreation officials have found to reach out.
Even though membership for Tunica County Recreation has exceeded 1200, Willis isn't satisfied.
"We want to engage the entire adult and youth populations," Willis remarked at last month's health council meeting.
He and other rec officials are reaching out to engage churches to "educate and encourage their congregations" to adopt healthy lifestyles. The Henderson Recreation complex most recently hosted a Clergy Walk.

"Howth IS Magic!" Top 5 Page for this destination Howth by Dabs
Howth Travel Guide: 214 reviews and 662 photos
Howth (rhymes with both) is a delightful seaside town about 15km from Dublin and an easy daytrip from the capital city. If someone was just visiting Dublin on their trip to Ireland, this would be a great place to visit to see the seaside, get some fresh air and enjoy a nice meal of fresh seafood.
Howth is easily combined with a visit to nearby Malahide Castle on a daytrip from Dublin, I spent 3-4 hours in Howth and then headed to Malahide to see Malahide Castle for a couple of hours and then back to Howth for an early dinner. Plus I still had time to visit Dun Laoghaire in the evening for a walk along the pier there.
The Cliff Walk is what drew me to Howth, anyone who knows me knows that I like to walk and when I woke up to a beautiful sunny day in Dublin I thought Howth was the perfect choice for the day. Some accounts say that the Cliff Walk can be dangerous in high winds but the path felt perfectly safe to me on this particular day. The Cliff Walk has several different trails in varying degrees of length and difficulty, I chose one of the shorter trails because I wanted to visit Malahide as well as Howth.

Loved Howth..been there 3 times. Never got around to writing about it though. Your pages very informative.
Thank you for an outstanding tour of Malahide and Howth Castles - cliff walk must have been great.
Wow, beautiful blue skies when you visited. Great Malahide Castle and Howth Castle tips. Crab cakes look delicious.
Nice to do a cliff walk so often its just drive here see the castle & go
Interesting story on Malahide Castle...also I imagine you had some spectacular views along the cliff walk!! Too bad Howth castle was not open for visiting, but it gave you a nice photo op!
I would feed the Seals too, they are rather cute!
Malalude Castle and your Cliff Walk both sound excellent. You are such an accomplished traveler....well researched, unafraid of exploration, and possessing keen insights.
Ah Kristi, I envy you for having been to Ireland! Loved your excellent photos and was especially interested in the Cliff Walk and old castles. Thanks for this excellent little page - makes me want to go back!

As you may know, I spent some time in Massachusetts this year, working on some Congressional races, and it's been an interesting time for me, seeing the differences (the many, many, many differences) between that state and my home state of Florida.
Both states have a legislature dominated by one party, but with wide variation in how much autonomous power the controlling party really has. When the Republicans who control the Florida House and Senate push their luck too far, the Florida press corps howl in protest and voters in even heavily-Republican districts tend to reject anything really outlandish (case in point: the failure of many of the constitutional amendments, which originated in the Legislature, on the ballot this year).
In contrast, in Massachusetts, when the Democrats try something nutty, it's met with shrugs and mostly ignored as simply business as usual. At best, media outlets like the Boston Herald may cover a story here and there, but it rarely seems to slow down the Democrats' appetite for abusing government power…Read More »

I just finished reading Architects of Ruin by Peter Schweizer. It is an excellent investigative report about how leftists wrecked the global economy, and will do it again if no one stops them.

Clearly I need to hit the econ books again. I would have thought that spending $250 billion on state education systems over the next few years would contribute to a reduction in overall economic growth, as opposed to an increase.

Keselowski undeterred after Talladega mishaps
One year later, he was NASCAR's newest champion, beating Johnson in a round-for-round title fight that gave Penske his first career Cup championship in 40 years.
Keselowski believed that championship validated his bumpy road to the top and earned him the respect of his peers. He badly wanted to parlay his role as champion into a leader of the sport. In his heart, he was certain he'd earned that right.
Only nothing changed.
Before his title defense even began, he found himself inside NASCAR headquarters explaining comments he made in a USA Today article to NASCAR chairman Brian France and Lesa France Kennedy, head of International Speedway Corp. His opinions were not popular, and voicing them got him into hot water time and again last season.
He also learned over the course of the season that the respect he thought he'd earned from his peers wasn't there. Keselowski very much wants to be one of the faces of NASCAR. When his title didn't make it happen, he tried to rein himself in a bit to see if that would do the trick.
Instead, his performance suffered. He failed to make the Chase and won his only race of the season in Week 31. During that span, he chose not to shove Kyle Busch out of his way at Watkins Glen — a move that would have given him a win and put him in the Chase.
Keselowski learned the hard way that "life provided me a unique opportunity to have my cake and eat it, too. My read was wrong, though. That opportunity is further down the road if I keep doing what I did before 2013."
So that's what you've seen on track from Keselowski this season and Sunday at Talladega. He's racing for himself. He's not playing nice and he's taking no prisoners.
That's why he was racing hard with the leaders while down six laps at Talladega. That's why he forced himself in front of Patrick just 13 laps into the race.
Sure, he made everybody mad with some moves. But if it wins him races, Keselowski doesn't care.

Artificial Lift Systems
The industry produces hydrocarbons from wells that once might have been slated for abandonment. Operators need artificial-lift and field-operation management systems that are designed specifically for their asset to achieve optimal production.
Realizing the full potential of an artificially lifted well involves more than installation, control, and analysis. It requires the systematic design of the artificial lift system (ALS) coupled with a comprehensive, collaborative approach to managing field operations.
Weatherford has teamed with operators around the world to develop a systematic optimization cycle for individual wells and entire fields in all conditions.
Our approach gives you the tools and knowledge to proactively increase production and reduce costs:
Evaluate current artificial lift performance
Design a customized artificial lift system, based on current and projected characteristics
Monitor well activity and reservoir changes
Quantify and analyzing artificial lift system data
Control well operation in real time
Manage operations workflow
Use historical data to make better-informed decisions
We provide innovation, inventory, and expertise for every form of artificial lift, in any reservoir, anywhere in the world:
Electronics that enable intelligent wellsite optimization
Robust sensors that monitor artificial-lift systems
Software that delivers real-time monitoring, analysis, and control
Talented, dedicated, and well-trained artificial lift technicians and consultants
We designed a complete system to enhance artificial-lift performance. This series of full-circle processes includes steps for appraisal, system selection, design, monitoring, analysis, and adjustment.
Our approach gives you the tools and knowledge to proactively increase production and reduce costs.
Our innovations include the unloading selector for gas well deliquification. This is a simple online process that analyzes your asset data and then recommends a form of lift that is best suited for your well.
We are the only single-source provider that offers extensive solutions for all forms of artificial lift. With more than 730 manufacturing, service, and distribution facilities around the world, we offer global expertise, economic value, and operating efficiency. We deliver engineering, manufacturing, and application expertise for any asset, anywhere in the world.

Oh my gosh, this makes so much sense. ^^ Love it!
Bwah Jade holding Stitch is just so goddamn cute ;u;
As someone for whom Lilo & Stitch serves as crossover fodder for my other favorite fandoms, I approve. Particularly for the parallels drawn here and Bec's otherworldly ginormousness.
Bro times for all the islandstuck misfits! :3

When I thought of it I was like WHOA too. XD
This is like, two of the best things, ever. And your style is utterly adorable. I want to rub Stitch's head, just because I know it would annoy him.
Oh thank you so much!! YES a large part of Stitch's appeal is his ornery nature paired with his cute, fluffy exterior.
This is the greatest crossover to have ever existed
Okay one of the greatest
Okay one of the greatest
cute crossover idea! xD i never realized that connection until now! O:
