Heart Failure and Stress Management
In this article
How Can I Keep a Positive Attitude?
A positive attitude and self-esteem are good defenses against stress, because they help you view stress as a challenge rather than a problem. A positive attitude keeps you in control when there are inevitable changes in your life. A positive attitude means telling yourself there are things you can do to improve certain situations and admitting that sometimes there's nothing you can do.
To maintain a positive attitude during a stressful situation (or to prepare yourself for a potentially stressful situation), keep these tips in mind:
- Stay calm. Stop what you're doing. Breathe deeply. Reflect on your choices.
- Always tell yourself you can get through the situation.
- Try to be objective, realistic, and flexible.
- Try to keep the situation in perspective. Think about the possible solutions. Choose one that is the most acceptable and feasible.
- Think about the outcome: Ask yourself, what is the worst possible thing that can happen? Chances are that won't happen.
- Tell yourself that you can learn something from every situation.
How Can I Reduce My Stressors?
While it is impossible to live your life completely stress-free, it is possible to reduce the harmful effects of certain stressors. Here are some suggestions:
- First identify the stressor. What's causing you to feel stressed?
- Avoid hassles and minor irritations if possible. For example, if traffic jams cause you stress, try taking a different route, riding the train or bus or car-pooling.
- When you experience a change in your life, try to continue doing the things that you enjoyed before the change occurred.
- Learn how to manage your time effectively, but be realistic and flexible when you plan your schedule.
- Do one thing at a time; concentrate on each task as it comes.
- Take a break when your stressors compile to an uncontrollable level.
- Ask for help if you feel that you are unable to deal with stress on your own.
How Can I Learn How to Relax?
In order to cope with stress, you need to learn how to relax. Relaxing is a learned skill -- it takes commitment and practice. Relaxation is more than sitting back and being quiet. Rather, it's an active process involving techniques that calm your body and mind. True relaxation requires becoming sensitive to your basic needs for peace, self-awareness, and thoughtful reflection. The challenge is being willing to meet these needs rather than dismissing them.

OSU football: Running back Jeremy Smith returns to downhill style
STILLWATER — Oklahoma State running backs coach Jemal Singleton's philosophy isn't all that complicated.
One cut and get north. As in, toward the end zone.
Yet Singleton and Cowboy starter Jeremy Smith both admit Smith had gotten away from that mindset, particularly in a shocking loss to West Virginia two weeks ago in which he tallied just one yard on 15 carries.
Against K-State last week, however, Smith began to return to that downhill style, a trend he knows must continue when the Cowboys face a physical TCU defense Saturday at Boone Pickens Stadium.
"It's always just a one-cut game," Smith said. "Sometimes we lose focus of that. We just try to think too much and try to do too much. You can't let that happen."
Smith called his performance against the Mountaineers an "embarrassment." And Singleton graded him hard, though the coach says Smith actually did several things right on certain runs that did not result in any yards.
That's because OSU's rushing woes are about more than Smith. Singleton says he has made mistakes. And the offensive line as not been as stout as in year's past, particularly at right guard.
But a running back can perhaps most be measured when things break down around him. When the hole isn't huge. When an offensive lineman or receiver misses a block. When an opponent sends a blitzing linebacker through the exact gap that was supposed to turn into a running lane.
And that's when Singleton goes back to his philosophy.
"My best chance at moving a pile and making positive yardage is to get north," Singleton said. "It's to stick my foot in the dirt and run fast and as hard as I can that way.
"It's basic physics. If I'm running sideways, I'm gonna get knocked backwards. If I'm running forward, I've got a chance to fall forward and gain extra yards."
That was Smith's specialty during the initial stages of his OSU career, when the Cowboys would often take Kendall Hunter and Joseph Randle off the field in short-yardage and goal-line situations and put Smith in to get the tough yards. He became a true weapon in that role, scoring a touchdown in 10 consecutive games that stretched the 2010 and 2011 seasons.
But last season, Smith started talking about trying to add more moves to his game. And at times in 2013, Smith has gotten caught trying to make things happen behind the line of scrimmage.
That led to the worthy question of if backup Desmond Roland deserved to get more looks against K-State. Instead, he got fewer, carrying the ball just twice for one yard.
Because Smith was visibly better. His numbers weren't staggering — 11 carries for 56 yards and a touchdown. But he showed more power and burst throughout the game, then came up with a critical 16-yard scamper on the Cowboys' game-winning drive.
Overall, Singleton's position group is not where he wants it, with four reliable backs. Right now, he's only comfortable with Smith and Roland in game situations, though true freshman Rennie Childs is getting increased reps in practice.
Which means, especially now, Smith continuing to abide by the "one cut and get north" philosophy is critical.
"Each and every week you just have to have something to prove, and (against K-State) I did," he said. "And it's gonna continue that way. There's still people that are still doubting us and everything like that, so you've got to get better every week."

2009 was my first foray into the musical world of the roadside graves. i had a brief affair with their if shacking up is all you want to do, but maybe i just wasnt ready for em? i maybe listened to it a half a dozen times, then just stopped. 2009 brought me their minor classic and my favorite record from that year, my sons home. a sprawling 18 track opus comprised of familiar themes, but set in situations/stories that probably arent for everyone, but they touch a nerve/heartstring nonetheless. that is if you let em, but you have to an open mind and put yourself in the shoes of the characters they created. 18 songs is a lot of songs and its quite an undertaking especially if you want keep the attention of the listener. suffice it to say, my sons home is as the saying goes "all killer, no filler." wilco barely pulled it off, roadside graves did with flying colours.
this year they put out we can take care of ourselves, which is a concept record based on s.e. hinton's 1965 novel "the outsiders." yes, they also made it into a movie starring every 80's actor you could imagine, or at least it seems that way. a record based off a novel originally published 40+ years ago which revolves around two sets of socioeconomically opposed white "gangs" and their dealings with each other and themselves? not an easy sell, but the beauty of we can take care of ourselves is that you dont have to know anything about the story to appreciate the tale – this is of course a concept record after all. shit, you dont even have to listen to it as a whole, although thats the way it should be listened to. the songs are so freakin strong that they can stand on their own and in a perfect world there would be 6 or 7 singles that should be blazing up some perfect world chart. much like my sons home, everything seems in its right place and the ebb and flow of the record is damn near perfect. i cant name another band out there, or at least that i have heard, that have mastered this art as well as roadside graves. if there are only two records you listen to based on my recommendations this year, let this be one and the mount moriah record. this is not to take away from any other records i have in my top 10 or other shit i have dug, but me thinks these two need the most help and need to be heard.
buy we can take care of ourselves via amazon or via autumntone on vinyl with a digital download.
love me more

15days until Next Tasting: Older Whiskies
The Black Swamp Single Malt Society was formed in June 2010 by a group of individuals with the sole purpose of providing a regular and formalized venue for individuals who have a passion for single malts to gather together to share, enjoy, explore, enrich, and expand their knowledge and familiarity with the single malt whiskies of the world (and on rare occasions other fine spirits).
Membership in the Society is limited and to become a member an individual must be sponsored by a current member. A link for Information on becoming a member is provided below.
We are a group of individuals who share a common interest and passion - Single Malt Whiksy. Among our group are people who have just discovered the joys of single malt whiskies to those who experienced connoisseurs who are extremely knowledgeable. We meet to sample and learn about different single malts or to revisit previously tasted bottles. Nothing makes for more enjoyable evening then sitting down with a group of people who share your passion and drinking and talking about it. While our meetings expand our knowledge and appreciation, they aren't stuffy as the title Society might make you think. We meet at various members' homes and other social gathering places and enjoy fantastic evenings tasting different single malts and having great conversations (and whenever possible great cigars as well).

With the equipment you already own I would have thought the S95 complements them perfectly

I am currently looking to buy a house that fits my price range. The only problem with the house is the basement. It has a dirt floor. The foundation walls have a couple of cracks and the dirt feels a little damp. Would this be a bigger problem than it is worth. We would like to put a cement floor in and fix the foundation problem. Everything else on the house has been redone. The oldest thing to the house is the roof ( besides the basement). Around the basement walls the dirt looks like it is loose. Any suggestions?
- Forum >
- Basement & Foundation >
- Dirt floor basement
can`t honestly answer your quest`s.
i mean, sure you can put in a concrete floor and sure, the cracks can be fixed. How much depends on several things.
with a dirt floor comes more of a chance(i`m not saying there is)of high radon levels so, i`d have a radon test done.
putting a floor in shouldn`t be a big deal, if thats what your after. Can others problems arise during/after floor is in? Yes, Not likely but possible.
Could other cracks occur in wall(s) down the road? Yes, possible, again its not likely but does indeed happen to some.
Hopefully, 1 or more bsmt walls are Not bowing in. Maybe get some estimates on roof, having floor put in,fixing the cracks correctly etc etc,add it up.Can ya fit it all in to yer budget and still have x amount left for other potential problems that may occur? Carefully read any-all guarantees.

College crime reports released
Published: Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 5:12 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 3, 2013 at 5:12 p.m.
Annual crime reports released by local colleges show that alcohol-related crimes continue to be the most common campus offenses.

The Clery Act requires colleges and universities that receive federal funding to report all campus criminal activity. Here's how Spartanburg schools where students live on campus fared in 2012, according to reports for each campus.
Converse College
1 Forcible sex offense
9 Burglaries
1 Motor vehicle theft
1 Arrest for an alcohol offense
1 Disciplinary referral for a drug offense
5 Disciplinary referrals for alcohol offenses
Spartanburg Methodist College
1 Aggravated Assault

3 Arrests for drug offenses
2 Arrests for alcohol offenses
15 Disciplinary referrals for drug offenses
56 Disciplinary referrals for alcohol offenses
USC Upstate

Wofford College
1 Robbery
11 Burglaries
2 Motor vehicle thefts
1 Arrest for a weapons offense
16 Arrests for drug offenses
3 Arrests for alcohol offenses
154 Disciplinary referrals for alcohol offenses
Reports for 2012 were released recently through the Clery Act, a federal law that requires colleges and universities that receive federal funding to report campus criminal activity.
Specifically, the law requires the schools to report all violent crimes, burglaries, arsons and motor vehicle thefts while also providing a summary of arrests and disciplinary referrals for alcohol, drug and weapons violations.
Each of Spartanburg's four residential colleges have posted copies of their reports to their school websites.
The most serious crimes listed on the reports were forcible sexual offenses. The University of South Carolina Upstate and Converse College each reported one such crime in 2012.
Other serious crimes reported by local colleges included campus burglaries, with Wofford College reporting 11, USC Upstate and Converse each reporting 9 and Spartanburg Methodist College reporting one.
Wofford also reported one robbery on its campus.
Motor vehicle thefts were reported at Wofford and SMC. And Converse and SMC each reported one aggravated assault.
School officials warned that the crime reports don't mean the campuses aren't safe and applauded ongoing efforts to combat campus crime.
SMC President Colleen Perry Keith said her school was committed to providing a safe environment.
"The good news is that there is virtually no change in our statistics from previous years. The bad news is also that there is virtually no change in our statistics from previous years," she said. "The SMC campus is a safe one and with the presence of alcohol, drug and character education programs as well as 24/7 campus police, we will continue to make positive inroads into all areas covered by the Clery Act."
USC Upstate Police Chief Klay Peterson said the 2012 campus crimes statists show that his campus is "a very safe community where our students, staff and faculty may work and flourish."
Peterson said USC Upstate's violent crime rate was among the lowest in the state, a ranking he credited to "an effective police-community partnership on campus."
At Converse, vice president for student life Molly Duesterhaus said campus safety efforts were key for creating a vibrant environment that is alert and aware.
"Campus safety is a ever-evolving effort that involves all members of our community. We constantly work to raise awareness, provide educational opportunities, and respond as needed to situations that arise," Duesterhaus said.
By far the most common offenses on Spartanburg campuses deal with alcohol or drug offenses.
School policies vary by each campus. Wofford allows alcohol on certain parts of campus, baring the person is of legal drinking age. USC Upstate, meanwhile, limits alcohol consumption to inside the Palmetto Villas apartments, only, and limit any of-age student to one six back of beer or one bottle of wine.
Wofford College reported that liquor law violations led to three arrests and 154 disciplinary referrals. The school reported another 16 disciplinary referrals for drug law violations.
USC Upstate reported 36 liquor law violations that ended in an arrest on its main campus, as well as nine arrests for drug law violations and one arrest for an illegal weapons possession.
Another 12 liquor law violations were handled by campus disciplinary actions or judicial referrals, as were four drug law violations.
SMC reported two arrests for liquor law violations and three arrests for drug law violations. The school also reported 56 disciplinary referrals for liquor law violations and 15 disciplinary referrals for drug law violations.
Converse College reported only one liquor law violation that led to an arrest on its campus. Five liquor law violations and one drug law violation were handled through college disciplinary actions.

Marie Mjolnir
Redirected from Marie
this wiki
Marie Mjolnir (マリー・ミョルニル, Marī Myoruniru) was the Death Scythe formerly in charge of Oceania. However, since the resurrection of Kishin Asura, her duties have since then been reassigned to Azusa. She is currently partnered with Franken Stein, and is a teacher at the DWMA.[1] She is also one of the Eight Mysteries of DWMA, known as "The Woman with the Eye Patch Who Destroys Toilets in the Dead of Night".[3]
Much of Marie's history is unknown. She was a student at the academy who eventually became a Death Scythe. She also dated Joe Buttataki around this time and eventually broke up with him. She would then be in charge of Oceania, planning to one day retire and get married.
Marie is an incredibly caring and gentle individual, and openly expresses her personality at all times. She shows great compassion in creating and maintaining a kind relationship with anyone she meets, and has yet to fail in doing so; almost always being shown with a smile on her face. Whenever a friend is in need, she is always open to help in any way she can no matter the situation. In general, she is always concerned for the well-being of others. She also dislikes seeing others unhappy, and is always up to cheering the individual up. People around Marie acknowledge all of these characteristics, and she is popular among her students. She is even able to befriend individuals who are often viewed upon as annoying or disliked among many.
She does not enjoy being put to work, and often seeks for ways around doing so. Her initial intention after having become a Death Scythe was to retire, however, upon not being able to do so, she chose to take Death Scythe charge over Oceania because she viewed it as the most peaceful and easy location to take charge of. When she is assigned to partner with Stein, she even begins to lightly shed tears because of her complete loss of the motivation to work, to which Stein reassures her that he believes such obsessive tendencies will become useful. Over time, these feelings towards work disappear, mostly as the result of the discovery that she really enjoys teaching at the Academy.
She has an undying urge to find a husband and get married, but has yet to successfully maintain a long-term relationship with someone. She always devotes herself to every man she dates but they always seem to end up breaking up with her. Azusa's suggested reason of this is because that Marie put so much devotion into the relationship that the men become so overwhelmed with pressure that they feel the obligation to run away from her. However, Marie denies this, and finds it hard to believe that she is the source of the problem. She has once even become so desperate for love that she almost decided to marry a toilet, seeing it as something that is accepting of anything and everything.
Marie is a forgiving and generally unprejudiced person. This is demonstrated most when Marie forgives Crona for slipping one of Medusa's snakes into her drink, allowing Medusa's group to hear conversations between she and Stein and to also increase the latter's madness.
She also has a horrible sense of direction, and often gets lost in the Academy, even though she's been acquainted with its layout for years. She has gotten lost a notable four times, and even Crona and Ragnarok were shown to be more aware of where the Teacher's Office was than her. She is so bad with directions that a location that can usually be gotten to in a matter of minutes can become a two hour search.[4] This direction problem more than likely originates from Marie guessing that a location is in a random direction rather than actually calculating where she is going.
Despite her usually friendly and calm demeanor, Marie is very quick tempered when someone says something that she doesn't approve of, sometimes even resulting to violence by striking this person with one of her powerful punches. She is not aware of how much they hurt.
Main article: Marie Mjolnir/Relationships
In her physical appearance, Marie is a young woman who possesses large, caramel eyes, and long blonde hair.
Zig-zags are prominent in Marie's appearance. She wears her hair loosely with no bangs, and it forms a zig-zag part on her head. Marie wears a black dress with a large, golden, zig-zag pattern in the front from the waist down. Parts of the dress are made of a different fabric. These parts are located on the long sleeves of the dress from the elbows down, and a part below the chest that resembles a girdle-like shape. She wears a pair of white, high-heel shoes that also appear to have a zig-zag pattern on them.
Finally, Marie's most iconic piece of clothing is her large, left eyepatch, which is decorated with a thunderbolt insignia that also appears in her Weapon form.
While hunting Justin, her clothing changed to feature a black sleeveless jacket over a shirt, shorts with patterning similar to her original dress and sandals. These clothes bear a noticeable resemblance to those worn by Joe Buttataki.
Powers and Abilities
PowersMjolnir (ミョルニル, Myoruniru): Perhaps Marie's most acclaimed power is her Demon Weapon transformation into Mjolnir, in which she can take the form of either a hammer or that of a tonfa.[5][6] As a Death Scythe, she is one of the most powerful Demon Weapons present in the series.
- Wavelength Driving: Marie in her weapon form has the ability to drive a wavelength into a opponent. This was powerful enough to cause Justin Law massive internal damage, despite him being merged with The Clown via Madness Fusion.
Healing Wavelength (ヒーリング波長, Hīringu hachō):Marie's Soul Wavelength has a calming effect on individuals who're able to achieve soul resonance with the said weapon,[7] which contrasts to the Anti-Demon Wavelength's ability to repel Madness. This allows the weapon the ability to keep the Madness within an individual at bay.[8]
DeathblowAutonomous Combat Expertise: Unlike ordinary Demon Weapons, Marie Mjolir possess skill outside the need of a Meister by transforming her hand into the hilt of her weapon transformation, evident when she managed to send Justin Law a distance with a punch when the latter underestimated her capabilities.[9] In the anime, Marie has showcase enough skill go against both Medusa Gorgon and Franken Stein in battle and held her own.[10][11] In addition, she can fully transform her hands and utilize them similar to mallets.
Enhanced Conditioning: In the anime, Marie Mjolnir can jump at incredibly heights, possess great speed and agility, and is durable enough to withstand Franken Stein's Soul Menace.[10][11] She's also extremely strong, witnessed when her own strength allows her to send Justin flying as well as uppercut Spirit Albarn high into the air unassisted with her weapon capabilities.[12] She even crushed a toilet with her strength.[1]
- Standalone
- Metsu Shoryuken (滅・昇龍拳, Metsu Shouryuuken): Marie delivers a powerful punch to her opponent in the midsection with incredible strength, lifting them off their feet and follows up with a Shoryuken, a jumping uppercut in which the user spins upwards with some horizontal movement as well, knocking the opponent to the ground and inflicting damage. This move is taken from the Street Fighter series.
- Internal Electricity (体内発電, Tainai Hatsuden): Through either intense concentration or emotional distress, Marie is capable of generating a significant electrical current at a precise point within her own body, which incinerates any foreign body that is currently residing inside of them.
- Soul Resonance
- Lightning Rope: A hyper-nerve induction technique that gives a massive boost to a Meister's physical capabilities by sending electric pulses through the Meister's motor system. However, it comes with the cost of putting too much strain on her body. This technique was used when partnered with Franken Stein and enabled him to be fast enough for Justin Law to not keep up and even produce after images.
- Triquetra Attack: A powerful Soul Resonance technique used during Lightning Rope in which Marie's Tonfo form distorts dramatically, instead becoming two intertwining beams of energy that emanate from a single triquetra symbol. When this symbol collides with a target, it greatly enlarges and results in a powerful destructive blast, which is represented by numerous towering and intertwined pillars of electricity. The concussive force produced by this blast is capable of obliterating even Justin Law while in his Madness Fusion form, leaving only a few tattered remains behind.[13]
| He hasn't reached full strength yet, but I don't have my Death Scythes.
There's something missing here. This section of the article is incomplete and requires more information before it can be considered complete.
After the death of B.J., she left the DWMA with Stein in order to find Joe's murderer and also because his last request was for her to keep an eye on Stein.
Tying Things Up, and New BeginningsMarie only reappears after discovering the truth behind Joe's death, revealing that it was in fact Justin Law, a fellow Death Scythe, who had committed the murder. It is then explained that her and Stein's long absence was due largely to the difficulty in discovering Justin's location. She firstly questions him about his reason for killing B.J., only receiving simply the reply that his "Soul Perception ability was too dangerous...the Kishin-sama was unable to rest easily". After hearing this and deducing that his next target was Maka, she charges towards him and hits him in the chest. It appears her attack has little effect but after extending part of her weapon from her fist, Justin is sent flying yet he still manages to recover in mid-air to land safely. Observing this ineffective result, Marie assumes her weapon form and both her and Stein go on the offensive. The resulting speed, caused by Marie's abilities, easily overwhelms Justin and forces him to retreat using an artifact. This leaves Marie and Stein in the desert outskirts of Death City, with nothing but the coffin Justin left behind.
After her group's infiltration of Noah's hideout, she, along with others, are quickly and violently beaten down by a combination of Noah's abilities in controlling the Book of Eibon and the power provided to him by Brew. Downed Justin Law casually walks over to her preaching some type of insane babble that could be a type of madness pray. Asking him to stop this Madness and how much can sin he can possibly live with she is quickly silenced by Justin as he strikes her face with his bladed arm. Her condition is unknown but she was seen to be alive after Spartoi escape from the book. However, after Stein and the others break free from Noah's creatures, she seems to be unconscious as Stein holds her, possibly monitoring her condition.
The Hunt
After the assault against Noah's group and the damage done to her by Justin Law's vicious attack, Marie made a full recovery from the battle. However, she also arrives to inform Maka and Black☆Star that, due to Crona attacking the Eastern European Branch of the the DWMA, killing the branches Death Scythe - the Demon Cannon Ball Tsar Prushka and his partner - along with destroying a city in the Ukraine, Crona has been added to Shinigami's target list and Spartoi have been issued orders to find and execute them.
Battle on the Moon
Versus Asura
Although Free inadvertently removes Marie and her peers to the Earth, missing their return to the Moon by a significant distance, Eruka Frog is able to use her Calculation Magic to locate Asura's position in the sky to put into Stein's mind. Stein then is able to aim and throw Marie in Lightning Rope form to within striking distance of Asura. While Stein's throw fails to connect, Marie retains enough autonomy to circle back around Asura three more times to hit him directly. However, Asura knocks Marie back into the atmosphere, and it is the combined work of Sid Barett and Akane☆Hoshi, wielding Spirit Albarn and Clay Sizemore respectively, to keep her from flying away.[14]
With her peers on the Moon's surface, Marie watches her students fight Asura. Thanks to the work of Maka and, from within Asura, Crona, Asura's Black Blood is expelled to form a barrier around the Moon to protect his exit. As Marie is still on the Moon with her peers, there is no time for Maka and her classmates to rescue Marie in time. With no hope of escape, Marie holds onto her fellow teachers and soldiers, waiting for the Black Blood to engulf her.[15]
However, thanks to the arrival of Maba and the Witch Judge, Marie is teleported off the Moon and back to the Death Scythe Meister Academy. She is shortly reunited with Maka and her students, with Maka running up to her (and past her own father) for a hug. While Marie comments how bruised Maka is from this battle against Asura, Maka (after noticing Marie's breasts due to Crona's Madness from the Moon) can sense a second soul wavelength from Marie's body, confirming her pregnancy.[16]
At the coronation celebrating Kid's ascension as the new Shinigami, Marie and Stein receive thanks from Kid for her work as his teacher and in hope that she will continue to be his mentor. Marie says she is confident students like Kid and Black☆Star are sufficiently powerful to face all future threats, which will be necessary for the next generation. At that moment, Kid senses Marie's pregnancy. Stein then explains that he learned Marie was pregnant with their child before Death sent them to the Moon. While Stein opposed her presence on the mission due to her pregnancy, he could not convince her otherwise. Stein has to give up cigarettes during this pregnancy, but he is pleased to have a new "guinea pig," prompting Marie's annoyance.
- Marie's name and abilities allude to frequently to Norse mythology. Her last name, "Mjolnir," alludes to Thor's hammer from Norse mythology. The hammer was one of the most powerful weapons in the world, capable of crushing almost anything.[17] Her Triquetra Attack alludes to the Valknut, a symbol associated with Odin, Thor's father.

Finance Minister Alexander Chikwanda recently signalled that Government is considering introducing new "tax measures" in mining :
"...We will introduce measures and relook at the tax system in the mining sector. Our mining sector has not contributed much compared to the rest of the region. So we want to engage local experts and ensure we have the statistics on mineral production and exports, and then we will find modalities to effect new tax measures to increase revenue collection..."
I commend Mr Chikwanda for his honesty that we are losing out. As well as his latest signal that change is on the way. Two additional observations on his statement.
First, the suggestion is interesting - but remains vague. What are these measures? We need details not merely promises of more study. It is not theoretical physics. These are straightforward issues. The obvious option is increasing revenue based taxes e.g windfall taxation or raising mineral royalties perhaps to 10%. Profit taxes do not work. Alternatively explore an infrastructure based tax that can be ring fenced to be spent in mining areas - that would be a win-win proposal for everyone. And it would ease pressure on mining companies for Corporate Social Responsibility projects. Which are mere bribes against citizens demanding higher taxes and better pay.[view whole blog post ]

'Battleship' Trailer Hits Web [VIDEO]
Yesterday the official trailer for the upcoming 2012 movie Battleship appeared online. The movie which is based on the classic board game, doesn't really seem to have much to do with it though.
Yesterday the official trailer for the upcoming 2012 movie Battleship appeared online. The movie which is based on the classic board game, doesn't really seem to have much to do with it though.
As a huge comic book nerd, I had to go see the highly anticipated 'Captain America' this weekend and I am glad I did. Not only was it a great movie, it set up one awesome movie for summer 2012.
The comic book movie that has anticipated for over a year is finally here. Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger hit's theaters everywhere today and I'm here to tell you why it absolutely rocks.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes is set to hit theaters this August, and so far I think it looks fantastic. In this new 3 minute clip you get a real feel for how this movie is going to play out.
A bootleg version of 'The Amazing Spider-Man' trailer hit the internet a couple days ago, and now thanks in part to that and Comic Con opening up today they have released the trailer officially.
I decided the wait out the crowds for the final Harry Potter film and go last night. The film was very well done I think I'll miss these Potter movies now that they are finished. If you haven't seen it, there could be spoilers so read at your own risk!
It is a weekend for geeks all across this great nation. The final chapter in the Harry Potter saga hit's theaters and you can bet that this nerd will be there to check it out.
In a world of superhero and comic-book movies where grown-ups run the show, it's good to get back to a time when kids are the ones that find themselves on an unexpected adventure that turn them into the reluctant hero at the end of the film. Once again, I warn you that there WILL BE SPOILERS in this review.
The much anticipated Captain America movie will be hitting theaters in about 2 weeks. In three countries overseas though, the name of the movie will be a little bit different.
This was the big opening weekend for the latest movie in the X-Men franchise and in my opinion they totally redeemed themselves.
The Memorial Day weekend box office numbers are in, and The Hangover II dominated all pulling in over $86 million, far more than the other sequel that opened up.
The weekend is here and we have a great new movie coming out in Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.

I'm enjoying how much more fluid Death is than War when it comes to combat and general exploration, though.
I'm also giving Tales of the Abyss another chance to impress me. I got it over a year ago, put it down at some point, and it's just now occurred to me to pick it up again. Starting a new game, because the only thing I can remember is how much I hate Luke...hmmm, maybe that's why I put it down in the first place.
I'm currently playing the 3DS port of Tales of the Abyss and boy is Luke annoying. I'm also focusing on Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance and Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D(The port/remake does not disappoint.).

We stayed here with a travel trailer and a tent. They are very unorganized and kept moving us to different sites. They don't want anything on their grass. The owners are not friendly and yelled when our truck went in the grass to make the turn into our spot. They have a swing on the playground that is apparently for handicapped kids although there is nothing indicating that. I was swinging my daughter in it and the owner came over and told me to get her out because he paid too much money for her to ruin it. They charge you extra for your electric usage on top of your nightly fee. There are no activities except bingo and there is one bath house at the front of the park. I would not camp there again. - beaglefamily24

Nice quiet park, with a sandbox and play area for kids. Nice pool but only open for a few hours. Owner is not very friendly but over all an average, private campground. There is a nice park down the road with a little lake, beach, and a dog park. - campingclub

This was a very nice stopping place on our trip East. The campground was very clean, very easy to maneuver a rig through. The people were very friendly. The only drawback was the showers didn't have private dressing rooms attatched. - mraynie

Arizona has not made a bowl game in 10 years, but may have its best chance in Mike Stoops' tenure.
This seems a little hard to believe, but in a world that now includes a St. Petersburg Bowl and a Congressional Bowl and a bowl game in Toronto, Arizona hasn't been to a postseason football game in 10 years.
"We've been on the threshold, I can't tell you how many times," says Mike Stoops, who enters his fifth year as Arizona coach. "We're very optimistic about our chances."
Ah, those were the days: 'Zona was coming off a 12-1 season in 1998, it was just a little nip away from the Rose Bowl, and it began formulating schedules commensurate with the upturn in the Wildcats.
"At that point in time," athletic director Jim Livengood says rhetorically, "who's to believe we aren't going to be very good?"
- Students seeking sugar daddies for tuition, rent
- Purple Heart plant bed vandalized days before Memorial Day
- Refusal in Bernie Sandersland to accept reality is really unreal
- Central District's shrinking black community wonders what's next
- So the NRA sends a questionnaire to a Seattle state senator ...
Most Read Stories
A decade's worth of history proved the Wildcats weren't. But the games stayed on the schedule — Utah (twice), Purdue, Wisconsin, Brigham Young (twice), Louisiana State — even as Stoops struggled to extricate the program from the John Mackovic mess.
"I'm a great believer that if you sign a contract, you better make sure you honor that contract," Livengood says. "In my time here, and at Washington State, we've never dropped a game on the schedule we've contractually committed to.
"I don't know. Is that right? It's trying to do the right thing."
Those losses, and last year's defeats to programs the Wildcats should have beaten — New Mexico and Stanford — left them one win away from a breakthrough. But they've lost the Arizona State game the past two years.
Now the schedule won't be an alibi. Arizona opens at home with Idaho and Toledo and goes to New Mexico. Then the Wildcats have five Pac-10 games in Tucson.
This ought to be the year, or it might be time to find Stoops' successor.
He came from his brother Bob's Oklahoma staff before the 2004 season, all full of energy, resolve — and maybe even of himself.
"I was a lot better defensive coach when I was at Oklahoma, it seems like," admits Stoops.
That's a different way of saying that Stoops felt his defenses could be a bigger force in the Pac-10. Now, instead of believing his teams can win 24-17, he's resigned to the idea it might have to be 34-27.
"All of us as coaches might imagine you can change anything," he says. "You're not going to stop people. I don't know if it's players or schemes, but it's very, very difficult."
A year ago, with a wealth of defensive personnel back, Arizona allowed 27 points a game. Now, Arizona tries it the other way; it has 10 offensive starters back, including quarterback Willie Tuitama.
In his first year of operating a spread offense, Tuitama set school passing records for yards (3,683) and touchdowns (28). Of course, this is Arizona, so it's like being the best resort property in Afghanistan. In its 30-year existence in the Pac-10, Arizona has never had an all-league quarterback.
Tuitama could be that guy, in what looks to be an off-year for quarterbacks in the Pac-10.
"Last year, we were just learning the offense, trying to get everything down right," Tuitama says. "Once we did find that comfort level, our offense turned around."
Washington witnessed the start of the turnaround, allowing Arizona 48 points at Husky Stadium. The Wildcats then put 34 on both UCLA and Oregon before flaming out against Arizona State.
All-league receiver Mike Thomas heads a group of three returnees that caught 170 balls last year. The offensive line, keyed by tackle Eben Britton, is deep, and Rob Gronkowski is a specimen at tight end.
"This is the best group of players we've had offensively," Stoops says.
It's on defense where the Wildcats look most vulnerable. But, Stoops says, "Playing scared defensively is not a bad place to be. That's probably how I established myself as a coach."
Livengood stops short of calling it a make-or-break year for Stoops, but that's all but conceded.
"You don't need to tell coaches it's an important year," he says, "whether it's Mike Stoops or Tyrone Willingham. Nobody is more competitive than they are."

JOHN COLTRANE and JOHNNY HARTMAN IMPULSE MONO JAZZ LP
JOHN COLTRANE AND JOHNNY HARTMAN 1963 Impulse MONO A-40Up for auction is JOHN COLTRANE AND JOHNNY HARTMAN 1963 Impulse MONO A-40 33 1/3 RPM Record. The record is in VG+ condition. Record shows very light scuffs that may produce a very minor tick or two, nothing that will detract from the beautiful sound. Sleeve is in VG+ Tape on upper back at opening. Chipped on edges and corners.
.John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman is a 1963 studio album featuring John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman. Though Coltrane and Hartman had known each other since their days playing with Dizzy Gillespie's band in the late 1940s (Hartman had been with the band on an on and off basis, and Coltrane played (third) alto with the band in 1949), Hartman is the only vocalist with whom the great saxophonist would record as a leader. Initially when producer Bob Thiele approached Hartman with Coltrane's request that the two record together Hartman was hesitant as he did not consider himself a jazz singer and did not think he and Coltrane would compliment one another musically. However, Thiele encouraged Hartman to go see Coltrane perform at Birdland in New York to see if something could be worked out. Hartman did so, and after the club closed he, Coltrane, and Coltrane's pianist McCoy Tyner, went over some songs together. On March 7, 1963 Coltrane and Hartman had decided on 10 songs for the record album, but en route to the studio they heard Nat King Cole on the radio performing "Lush Life", and Hartman immediately decided that song had to be included in their album. The legendary compilation was made that same day at the Van Gelder Studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. Each song was done in only one take, except for "You Are Too Beautiful", which required two takes because Elvin Jones dropped one of his drumsticks during the first take.

Aug 2015 - $46.00
We stayed here on short notice, and we were able to get a small site not far from the main office. Nice little site which fit our 15' camper quite well. There was a lot foot traffic past the site, but it wasn't really a problem. I'd say the only drawback to the campground was the golf cart traffic. They were pretty noisy, and there were a lot of them buzzing around all day.
All in all, Woodland Acres is a nice family campground with lots for the kids to do.
Great facilities and the best camp store I've seen. - 2beagles
May 2015 - $30.00
This was our first trip to Acres of Wildlife. The above stated rate is the published rate. We stayed for $0 because we participated in the "free cleanup weekend". Basically, they offer you a free weekend in return for some raking and cleanup activities throughout the campground. It turned out to be about 3-4 hours worth of work, the rest was camping/fun time.
The park was nice, and is definitely family oriented. Lots of games/activities for kids (and adults). Sites are decent, but probably look better once more foliage fills in the trees. This place has the very best camp store I have ever seen, a must see! The road is very dry and dusty, and with the constant truck/golf cart traffic it got things pretty dirty. All in all we had a good time. We are definitely planning a return trip later this Summer. - BigNuge
Sep 2014 - $40.00
Another great stay at Acres of Wildlife! This campground keeps making some wonderful improvements. Year after year they add sites, clear trees, and are constantly making the sites better and better. This year they also added some tree houses for campers to rent. So if you do not have a camper you can still find a way to have a great time at Acres. We have been coming here for many years and it always great to go back. This weekend was no different. They did a great job with their Halloween weekend by having a Haunted House and such great campers to make the campground something spectacular. There is no doubt that we will return again. - clw_man

About Ambrosio
AmbrosioThe Ambrosio brand dates back to the early twentieth century. At that time there were those who wondered wheels and handlebars products used in the early pioneering competitions: they were all made by Ambrosio. Ambrosio was born in Turin and maintained a leadership position until the sixties, when a severe financial crisis brought the prestigious torch brand to close its doors. It is in this period that Ambrosio and family Marzorati (still the majority shareholder) roads cross by capturing the prestigious brand and creating the basis of its revival at all levels. The "Marzorati Cerchi", founded in 1941 by Piero Marzorati, wasn't producing racing rims still, but acquiring the new brand pushes up the design of a new range of innovative products in order to return to professional racing. The result of this work will lead to hundreds of victories in major events by working with champions such as: Moser, Saronni, Hinault, Lemond, Argentin, Fondriest, Bugno, Armstrong, Freire, Rebellin, Bettini...
We were the first to produce and market lenticular carbon fiber wheels, among the first to produce wheels for mountain bikes in Europe, and we were among the few in the world to produce racing wheels for tubular welded aluminum for professional use.
A blend of tradition, innovation and technology that allows us to offer the best in wheels, rims, clinchers and tubulars.

Two Greenwood seniors were thrilled at the start of the school year when their Spanish teacher told their class they would use iPads each day.
Claire Gallman and Austin Schlenz, both seniors in Jorge Garcia's Spanish IV class at Greenwood Community High School, envisioned spending the year streaming YouTube and other videos in class instead of listening to lectures. Garcia also planned to have students create digital poems filled with music and scrolling text that they could post online as part of the course's poetry unit.
But Garcia's class quickly ran into problems.
Watching educational YouTube clips, for example, meant signing onto the Internet, but students were continually knocked offline. And even when all of the students could connect, some still couldn't watch the video Garcia had assigned because of the device's settings, Gallman and Schlenz said.
Using the iPads to complete assignments that involved a lot of writing was another problem, as students didn't have keyboards to use with the devices and typing quickly on the iPad screen is difficult, the seniors said.
Eventually Gallman started forgetting to bring her iPad to class. She started to think of the device the same way she thought of an inches-thick literature book she'd once been assigned in an English class — something that was used occasionally but not worth carrying to school every day.
"I would use it at home, for games and shopping and stuff. And sometimes I'd leave it there," she said.
School districts across Johnson County have been announcing ambitious plans to get more devices in their students' hands. Center Grove schools will spend more than $1 million for iPads next year for all of its 2,300 high school students, and Nineveh-Hensley-Jackson schools is spending more than $500,000 to buy iPads for its nearly 1,100 sixth- through 12th-graders. Franklin schools has upgraded its Internet capacity and plans to launch a program allowing all kindergarten through 12th-grade students to bring their own smartphones, tablets and computers to use in class.
Garcia's Spanish IV class was one of four pilot classrooms at Greenwood meant to help educators decide the best way to start blending technology such as tablets and computers with traditional classroom lessons. Garcia, who's always been interested in technology, volunteered to participate in the pilot and next year wants more money to purchase additional iPads for his Spanish III students.
He said computers and tablets have a place in the classroom: The Internet has too many resources for research and instructional videos to be ignored, and devices allow teachers to create interactive lessons, such as the poetry project, that students can complete or review outside school.
But what's still unclear is what kind of devices are the best for students. And it's also not enough to expect the students to start using iPads or other devices for their schoolwork immediately. Teachers have to be able to show students how to use the devices and what is expected of them, he said.
Otherwise, the iPads are no more useful in class than textbooks, Garcia said.
"(Schools) can't expect the technology is going to engage the students," he said.
For him to be able to use iPads effectively with his students, he needs to know more than his students about how they work and how his students can use them to master Spanish, Garcia said. That's why this year he's started a blog — a first for him — and is taking an Indiana Department of Education course on combining technology with traditional classroom teaching. This summer he wants to join Twitter and start contacting other teachers to find out how they use tablets in their classrooms.
When teachers talk about the importance of technology in the classroom, they often talk about developing students' critical thinking and research skills. Instead of lecturing students on a topic, they want to assign them a research paper or group project and have the students use a laptop or iPad to access resources that are online or have been emailed to them.
Then the teachers want their students to use the devices in class and at home to create more innovative and engaging presentations that anyone in the world could access.
But teachers first need to know enough about the devices and how they can be used to show the students specifically what's required of them, Garcia said.
Gallman and Schlenz said one problem is that some teachers are proficient in using the devices while others know very little.
Gallman has used an iPad in other courses such as calculus, and sometimes the iPad unexpectedly will reset itself or go offline. Teachers don't always have quick solutions to those problems so that the devices can be used in class, and that frustrates Gallman to the point where she doesn't want to use the device.
"It's hard when you have a lot of different technology areas and only a few people to work on them. It's not their fault, it's that they can only do so much," she said.
School officials are reviewing how well the devices were used in the four middle and high school pilot classes, and eventually administrators will have to decide the best way to provide devices for students to use in class. And while Gallman and Schlenz enjoyed having the iPads, they don't believe the school district needs to purchase them for every student.
Students can use smartphones or other devices they already own and are used to using to find quick online answers to questions in class. And that saves time that would be wasted if a school-provided tablet suddenly stopped working.
"It was almost distracting at some points. If I couldn't use it, I'd get (online) and play a game," Gallman said.

The collection provides information about the activities and writings of one of the 1960s leading civil rights activists. However, it consists primarily of correspondence, little of which is personal in nature, and most of which is unsolicited response to Father Groppi's civil rights activities, especially during 1967-1968 when he was a controversial national figure for his inflammatory activism in support of racial integration. Therefore, as a resource the papers may be more valuable for research in public reaction to civil rights activists, particularly those in religious professions, than they are for a study of Groppi's life and work. The collection is arranged in eight series: Correspondence, Personal Material and Writing, Activities, Printed Material, Essays by Various Authors, Scrapbooks, Newspaper Articles, and Tape Recordings.
The CORRESPONDENCE is divided into twelve subseries. The Supportive, Criticism, and Hate segments are the most valuable in terms of public opinion. Of note in the Supportive file are telegrams from Jesse L. Jackson (February 28, 1968) and Martin Luther King Jr. (September 4, 1967), and a letter (February 26, 1968) from Walter Mondale. While some of the correspondence is in support of Father Groppi, the larger portion is not. Some of the letters opposing Groppi's ideological stance and actions are thoughtful, reasoned criticism; more of them are "hate" mail. Copies of form letters signed by Groppi requesting donations of money for food and fines, and dated May 19, June 21, July 19, 1967 and September 12, 1969, are filed with Supportive correspondence. Occasionally, donations received are recorded on letters in the Supportive and Criticism correspondence files, but letters sent to Groppi for the sole purpose of donating money to support his civil rights activities are found in the Donations file. The Personal correspondence and letters to Archbishop W.E. Cousins contain the only responses in the collection written by Father Groppi. Also included with Personal correspondence are birthday cards, letters from friends and associates, and a May 5, 1967 letter from Sheed and Ward Publishers suggesting that Groppi write his autobiography. In this subseries is the only mention in the papers of the incident at the Alexian Brothers Monastery at Gresham, Wisconsin, a critical letter written February 26, 1975 by Father Groppi in response to an article by syndicated columnist Andrew Greeley. Speaking Engagements correspondence includes initial requests of Groppi to address meetings, contractual arrangements, and in some cases the sponsoring organization's response to the lecture. The Grade School Compositions are letters written by the children in parochial schools as class projects, and sent to Father Groppi by the instructors. Most of the General correspondence file consists of requests to Father Groppi to grant a private audience, to lend his name and assistance in combating issues such as the fluoridation of drinking water, or to help high school students with essays and debates on civil rights topics. The folders in the Correspondence series labeled "Additions" contain items separated from the Eugene Bleidorn Papers in the Archives of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee and presented to the Historical Society in 1996.
The PERSONAL MATERIAL AND WRITINGS series was compiled to separate what little exists on the personal life of Father Groppi from his civil rights activities. This material is fragmentary and not very revealing with the exception of a partial draft of an autobiography plus a biographical essay by an unidentified author covering Groppi's years at St. Veronica Church. Although items relating to the Archdiocese of Milwaukee provide insight on the responsibilities of a Roman Catholic priest in the diocese, they are limited in extent and there is almost nothing on Groppi's relationship with the predominantly black St. Boniface parish of the diocese. Groppi's involvement as advisor to the Milwaukee NAACP Youth Council, which was the basis of support in his early civil rights activities, is only sketchily documented in the correspondence series. There is nothing on it here nor in the Activities series that follows.
The ACTIVITIES series spans 1966 through 1972, but is an incomplete testimony of all the activities with which Groppi was associated. However, it does contain records of legal proceedings against Father Groppi which give more detail about his civil rights activities than any other single file. The file marked Statements, Proposals, and Resolutions holds papers which were sent to Father Groppi regarding the civil rights issue. They are not statements made by Groppi himself. It is probable that the clippings in the Scrapbooks and Newspaper Articles series offer more information concerning some of Groppi's activities than the manuscripts in the Activities series.
The PRINTED MATERIAL is a sampling of items that were sent to Father Groppi with some regularity. Part of the material isgularity. Part of the material is religious such as the published words of the Lady of Fatima. The remaining is social comment of which a major portion, in cartoon and broadside, is unfavorable to the Negro race. The series ESSAYS BY VARIOUS AUTHORS is a group of papers submitted to Father Groppi which deal either with Father Groppi or with the civil rights movement.
The SCRAPBOOKS consist of newspaper articles from 1967 which were mounted into blank books by Father Groppi. The NEWSPAPER ARTICLES are probably a continuation of Groppi's scrapbooks, but the articles were never organized as such. They have been kept in the order received and Groppi's file titles have also been retained. Clippings from the Milwaukee Journal and Milwaukee Sentinel newspapers have been retained in the original as Father Groppi clipped them, since these Milwaukee newspapers are preserved on microfilm for the period of the clippings in this collection, 1967-1978. Clippings from other newspapers and magazines, for which it is not known whether microfilm copies exist, have been photocopied to assure better preservation of the text of the articles.
The TAPE RECORDINGS consist of recordings of some of Groppi's sermons, monologues, and speeches. Most of the content touches upon themes of racism, poverty, social justice, and civil rights in relation to society and religion. There are also recordings of other speakers and activities including interviews, discussions, songs, and television shows.

Simple Home Remedies To Cure Weak Memory
- 07 02
Memory is an important factor in human being that helps us to store information and recall it whenever needed. At the same time, lapse in memory power can occur for any person due to several reasons. It is quite common to have weak memory at some point in our life. But weak memory should not become serious and cause personality problem and changes in behavior. Sometimes weak memory is caused due to brain disease and it may affect the normal functions of the affected person.
Causes of Weak Memory:
- The common cause for weakened memory is aging. As one grows old, there will be slowdown of concentration which may result in loss of memory. Sometimes, heightened stress and anxiety may reduce your memory. Certain powerful drugs are known to weaken the memory. Weak memory is also caused due to intake of certain medications for brain disease and tumors.
- Repeated use of alcohol or drug is likely to weaken the memory.
- Stressful lifestyle and lack of sleep would make your memory weak and poor. If you are not able to sleep properly previous night, then the chance of increased memory loss is high during the next day.
- In the modern technology, most of the people fail to remember even normal things, since they depend very much on computer and mobile for storing information.
Home Remedies For Weak Memory:
By following healthy lifestyle and eating balanced diet, you can easily increase your memory. It is essential to sleep for minimum 7 hours daily. But due to tight work schedule and meeting deadlines at night, many of you are skipping sleep for days together which may ultimately result in memory loss and poor health.
- Include foods like salmon, flax seeds in your daily food which is sure to increase fatty acids. Also add fibrous food like beans, wholegrain, pulses, fresh fruits and vegetables and milk in your diet which will activate your brain and improve memory. Vitamin B-12 is necessary for normal functions of brain and including eggs, meat and milk products that are rich in Vitamins.
- Develop a healthy sleeping pattern daily. Go to bed in time and avoid sitting and watching TV even if you don't have to go for work next day. Your brain needs enough rest to function normally for the entire day and hence develop healthy habit of getting sleep for at least 7 hours a day.
- Avoid using tobacco in any form. Drinking alcohol and using drugs will have drastic effect on your brain and other vital organs. In the long run, your nervous system gets affected which will ultimately cause loss of memory.
- Encourage children to play brain teasing games to improve concentration. Any activity that triggers your brain is good for increasing memory.
