Claveles L Group
The loan they are taking out will bring benefits to the small microentreprises in which Sofia is an integral part. This is her first time with Pro Mujer, acting on an invitation of a promoter of the institution who went to visit her home. Today she has a business buying and selling sheep. She has had this business for several years and she learned this business from her parents who had the same business as a family enterprise.
The loan will now bring a capital increase (for the purchase of sheep) which she will acquire at the community markets in the department of La Paz and later sell in the marketplace. This way of working allows her to generate resources to support her family as she is married with four children.
When asked what she likes about Pro Mujer, Sofia responds that she likes the loans and the health services and training offered by the institution.
El crédito que sacaran beneficiara a pequeñas microempresarias donde la señora Sofía es integrante, ella indica que es la primera vez que integra Pro Mujer, ingresando por la invitación de una promotora de la institución que fue a visitarle a su casa. En la actualidad ella tiene un negocio de compra y venta de ganado ovino; da a conocer que este negocio lo aprendió hace varios años de sus padres que tenían el mismo negocio como negocio familiar.
El crédito que ahora sacará es para el aumento de capital (compra de ganado ovino) que adquirirá de las ferias comunales del departamento de La Paz y posteriormente comercializará en su espacio de comercialización. Esta forma de trabajo le permite generar recursos para mantener a su familia, ya que ella es casada y tiene cuatro hijos.
Cuando se le consulta qué le gusta de Pro Mujer, ella responde que le gusta el área de crédito, salud y capacitación que le ofrece la institución.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Jet Skis are certainly able to squeeze into narrow waterways, although you probably wouldn't feel comfortable scraping one's hull against a rocky riverbed. Steel-hulled jet boats are considerably tougher than Jet Skis, but they're not nearly as nimble. Alaska-based Mackinnon Marine Technologies' AlumaSki, however, attempts to combine the best of both worlds. It has the form factor of a personal watercraft, along with a one-piece quarter-inch-thick aluminum hull. Read More
Sometimes you feel like a paddle; sometimes you don't. The new modular Predator XL kayak from Old Town keeps you happy in either case. With the help of a drop-in electric motor module, you can leave the paddle onshore and navigate the water with 45 lb (20.4 kg) of thrust and a foot-controlled rudder system. Read More
As popular and fast-growing a sport as stand-up paddleboarding has been, sometimes you just need to sit down and take a load off. A cross between a kayak and paddleboard, the CruiserBoard is a sit-down, stand-up paddleboard that gives paddlers more versatility than ever. Read More
Last year, US entrepreneur Judah Schiller crossed San Francisco Bay on a bike – and no, he didn't ride that bike across the Golden Gate Bridge. Instead, he mounted it on a Shuttle Bike kit, which adds pontoons and a propeller to a user-supplied bicycle. Since then, Judah has been working on designing an all-in-one "waterbike" of his own. The result, the Schiller X1, was officially unveiled this month. Read More
No one with red blood in their veins buys a sports car and hands the keys to a chauffeur, so one of the barriers to truly personal submarining has long been the need for a trained pilot, not to mention the massive logistics involved in transporting, garaging and launching the underwater craft ... until now. Pioneering underwater aviation company DeepFlight is set to show an entirely new type of personal submarine at the 2014 Monaco Yacht Show next week, launching the personal submarine era with a submersible that's reportedly so easy to pilot that it's likely to create a new niche in the tourism and rental market.

Tired of being told that the recreational submersible you want is too tall to fit into your superyacht? Dutch submersible manufacturer U-Boat Worx knows how you feel and is launching the Super Yacht Sub 3, a vehicle specifically tailored to fit into a standard superyacht garage area, if indeed there is such a thing.

Even as engineers work on autonomous ship-handling technologies, skilled and experienced crews are still vital for keeping shipping lines operating. The only snag is that most sailors today have become so used to never being out of touch that they've come to expect similar connectivity while at sea. To help maintain morale and retain skilled crews, Maritime Broadband has developed its C-Bird Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) satellite transceiver to keep sailors connected with their families and the internet.Read More
Shipyards have become quite consumed with engineering new ways of opening up the roofs on seafaring vessels. A few years' time has given us the vanishing enclosure of the Reversys and the folding top on the Oronero. Now, we have an 88-ft (26-m) Florida yacht boasting its own innovative Convertible Top system. Read More
While they may not yet be a common sight on the world's beaches, powered surfboards have been cropping up on a fairly regular basis since Gizmag first covered the PowerSki JetBoard a decade ago. Now, Spanish firm Aquila is planning to launch a new range of zippy electric-powered boards, each designed for different surfing styles.Read More
If you're a millionaire who wants the ultimate in opulence for your sea voyages, you get yourself a luxury yacht. However, what about those times when you're just playing around? Currently, you get the same Jet Ski-type thing as everyone else ... although there may soon be an alternative. Yacht designer Kurt Strand has just announced his forthcoming Strand Craft V8 Wet Rod luxury personal watercraft. Read More

I think there is a strange inconsistency in admin UI which I was thinking of reporting to Trac. I want to report here first to see what others thought and if there was a reason for it.
In 'Appearance' you have a tabbed option for 'Mange Themes' and 'Install Themes' and a dividing line.
In all other parent menus you have a small button, e.g. 'Add new page', 'Add new plugin' etc ...
This is inconsistent and I would suggest that all parent menu pages should have a tabbed look with a divider.
As a small additional suggestion, some theme designers write a lot of information about their themes, others write none. This leads to further inconsistency on the page.
I would suggest simplifying the display to just the details; name and version, then 'Activate | Preview | Delete'.
We don't need to know where the template files are located, so add a 4th item, e.g. 'More info' to allow a scroll down or pane showing the rest of the given info.
Big additional suggestion.
Incorporate an 'version compatibility' option on the Theme pages (would mean adding code and tables/scripts to the depository). I would say, "designed for version x.xx' and a 'compatibility check'.

Andrew Holtz updates us on what he calls Pfizer's "attempts to co-opt journalists" by sponsoring various journalism "events."
As Holtz notes, it's an old and sore subject with me. Several concerned journalists within the past two years have criticized the National Press Foundation (NPF) for accepting Pfizer money for all-expenses-paid trips for journalists to come to Washington to learn about cancer and Alzheimer's disease issues – both of which topics are in Pfizer's product line. NPF has now started accepting Novo Nordisk money for a journalism event on diabetes issues as well.
I was scheduled to meet with NPF staff to discuss my concerns last January but the meeting was cancelled because of a DC snowfall. I have simply been too busy to continue to pursue this issue and have let it gather dust, so I am pleased to see that others will not let it die.
Indeed, we should be having an international dialogue on pharma's influence – something I wrote about last year after an international "Selling Sickness" conference in Amsterdam.
One international voice has weighed in – Italian journalist Maria Amelia Beltramini Boveri – whom I met at a European health journalism event in the UK, argues against pharma-sponsored press events. She encourages a discussion on a listserv of European journalists.
Nice work.

It was eight weeks into my freshman year at Luther College. I remember wanting to kick off in the third quarter. I wanted to make a play. It was just a freak accident: When I dove across to make a tackle, the ball carrier's knee struck my neck, and I just was lying there.

About This Gig
** It's bulldog message delivery time! ** I will put your text on a small sign and take a picture of it next to Layla, my young 2 year old female English bulldog. She has a very expressive face and is super cute! I'll use my discretion to decide on what pose works best for you (and it also depends on how Layla feels). The basic gig includes a great selection of at least 3 different pictures with your own customized sign. Best results are obtained with shorter messages. I am also open to other types of request such as having Layla pose with an object (assuming that I have it or that you will be shipping it to me).
If you wish to display a logo or a photo on your sign, see my gig extras below for more details. I try to deliver orders promptly but have to admit that I do fill most of my orders on Saturdays or Sundays. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions and I'll be glad to assist you.

The lights are on
If you suspect that the enemy is going to rush you, you may not know what to do. I'll try to teach you so you don't get mauled by the classic rush tactic. To begin with, its good to know the "Rock, Paper, Scissors" circle. In Halo Wars, it goes "Vehicles Beats Infantry, Infantry Beats Aircraft, and Aircraft Beats Vehicles." If you suspect a rush, you should build an Air Pad, then start churning out air units as fast as you can. You really should make Hornets because they can be made quickly and with relatively little cost, but if you have time it is nice to build a Vulcan.
But what happens if you can't get enough reactor points for your air base? Well, you need to build all of the turrets you can and upgrade them with anti-vehicle attachments. Also build a Field Armory to upgrade your turrets further and bolster your defences. If you are Sgt. Forge. You might want to build a couple of Cyclops to help with repairing buildings while the attack is on. If you are Prof. Anders, you should consider building a few Gremlin units. They can use there EMP Pulse to play a pivotal role in defending your base against such attacks.
Same goes for if you are playing as a Covenant Leader, but I recommend building more Warehouses and a Temple so you can produce your leader. His powers can make all the difference.
Well, I hoped that this guide has helped some of you fight off those nubish rushers.
Hmmm... agree with covenant, but i have no problems with warthog rushing anyways, but good guide. If you want to play halo wars with me, i am a very avid and skilled player hit me up
GT is devinkeller2
I dont play Halo wars , just wanted to check out your guide after what you said about jakeorcutt editing yours for points too . Very nicely written , keep up the good work .
Or you can upgrade spartans and tanks all the way and then you can beat two scarabs with eight tanks if three spartans take over. Then you leave about six tanks left over, and you pretty much automatically win.

We decided to stay at the no-hookups area of the park, because there you are right on the shore of the Tennessee River, in the woods, with a lovely view. There are a couple of nearby water spigots, but no electricity and just a small bathroom with a flush toilet but no shower. Since we were the only campers there, we could let our dog run loose, which was nice.
About 1 mile from this campground is a water/electric campground (which costs a bit more, but still reasonable) and there you have showers in the nice, clean bathroom. But that campground is situated in the woods, with no view. That campground was about half full when we were there.
Miles and miles of nice hiking trails at this state park, and also a very nice small museum. The staff at the check-in office and the museum were VERY friendly, and even let us bring our dog inside both places, and gave us bottled water because they could see we were thirsty after our hike and hadn't carried water with us. - HercMaster

This stay was in the rustic log cabin on Pilot Knob. This cabin is a hidden gem. It is very secluded with a panoramic view of the Tennessee River and Kentucky Lake. It has a wood burning fireplace. Very clean. Tons of hiking trails and a river life and civil war museum are right out the back door. We have stayed in the RV campground here before, and it is a nice, peaceful place to camp as well. The park is clean and neat. Bring plenty to eat and whatever supplies you need, it is about 10 miles back to town if you forget anything. - PERRY4
May 2012 - $16.00
We only stayed one night while traveling through the area. The campground area with water and electric is in dire need of repair and upkeep. The sites are very narrow, very uneven and the macadam surfaces at some sites are badly broken or uneven. Our unit is 36' long, and an inexperienced driver may have difficulty getting into the sites. The grass needed to be cut, some sites have never been cleaned from the fall and winter and it just appears as if someone had forgotten about this area of the campground. The setting is beautiful, with many trees and woods, so it is sad that it is so neglected. There was no one else there, so obviously it was very quiet. Good place for a one night stay when traveling. - mccombk

Constables won't be asked to limit their use of radios, pay their own bonds or complete an 18-week training course just yet.
Several issues about local constables were discussed at a meeting of Taylor Fiscal Court's Law Enforcement Committee on May 5.
Expected to recommend changes last night to Fiscal Court, Committee members instead opted to recommend that the group first meet with constables before adopting those requirements.
It's official. Whether or not Taylor County School District gets an extra nickel tax will be decided on Tuesday, June 22.
Though the date has already been touted on signs and as part of the Citizens for Better Schools' campaign, it wasn't official until Tuesday night, when the Taylor County School Board voted to approve the special election.
The vote was unanimous. There was no discussion. The election will cost an estimated $15,000, according to Taylor County Clerk Mark Carney, which the School District will pay.
Two men have been arrested and charged with burglary after they allegedly broke into the former Fruit of the Loom property and stole copper wiring.
Greg Damrell, 33, of 100 James St. in Berea and Jason Blair, 34, of 203 Little Creek Road in Mt. Vernon were arrested Wednesday, April 28 at about 4 p.m.
According to Damrell and Blair's arrest warrants, the two are accused of breaking into the building on Thursday, April 22 and taking more than $500 in copper wiring.
Life is good for Rachel Blankenship. She retired from Taylor Regional Hospital two months ago after 28 years of service as a CNA in outpatient surgery. Her husband, Billy Gene, is also retired.
Blankenship, 67, stays busy. On Wednesdays, she cooks at South Campbellsville Baptist Church. Thursdays are reserved for line dancing. At home, she tends to her flower gardens.
She also participates in the Relay for Life each year. In the past, she was a member of the hospital team as well as her church's team.
It's a cause that's very important to her.
In response to several complaints, constables may soon be asked to limit their use of police radios, complete an 18-week training course and pay their own bond.
Several issues about local constables were discussed at a meeting of Taylor Fiscal Court's Law Enforcement Committee last Wednesday.
At the meeting, Taylor County Sheriff John Shipp told the group that he has received several recent complaints about constables' actions. However, no individual names were mentioned.
A Campbellsville teenager has been accused of using a child younger than 16 in a sexual performance.
Brandon S. Shirrell, 18, of 2996 Coakley Road was indicted Tuesday by a Taylor County grand jury.
He was also charged with four misdemeanor counts of sexual misconduct. The charge of using a minor in a sexual performance is a Class B felony, punishable by as much as 20 years in prison.
According to the indictment, Shirrell allegedly committed the crimes in February and April. The indictment accuses him of having sexual intercourse with the child without consent.
Flooding was the culprit behind last week's system-wide boil water advisory.
The advisory was in effect from Wednesday morning until Thursday evening. Mayor Brenda Allen said flooding hindered water treatment.
"The source water characteristics of the water changed due to the heavy rains," she said. "That affected the way we treat the water."
Kentucky Division of Water required multiple water quality tests, Allen said, before allowing the City to lift the advisory.
Though the economy is in a slump, there was plenty of local activity to report last Monday night.
Team Taylor County Executive Director Ron McMahan gave a lengthy report to Campbellsville City Council members during the Council's regular meeting Monday.
Amazon.com plans to amp up its work camper program this year, McMahan said. The program seeks retired people who frequently travel the U.S. in campers as seasonal temporary workers from October to December.
Three candidates are seeking the mayor's seat this year and all three will appear on the Primary Election ballot.
Incumbent Brenda Allen, Paul Harmon and Tony Young want to be Campbellsville's next mayor. The top two vote-getters advance to the General Election in November. The mayor's race is non-partisan.
A Campbellsville man who pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 14-year-old child has been sentenced to serve five years in prison for his crimes.
Davis Len Curtsinger, 32, of 478 N. Garnett Road appeared in Taylor Circuit Court before Judge Dan Kelly on Tuesday for sentencing.
In June 2008, Curtsinger was indicted on charges of first-degree rape and sodomy, intimidating a witness, third-degree unlawful transaction with a minor and being a second-degree persistent felony offender.

The RSS-to-Email feature on MailChimp is a true time saver. It allows me to quickly automate the newsletter creation process with content I am already writing on our blog. I love the idea of creating content once and automating the sharing in a systematic way.
Regardless of the RSS-to-Email service provider you use, this dlvr.it recipe improves any RSS-to-Email service by adding more controls and flexibility. Plus, it will save time and money. You can't beat that.
- Choose specific content moving from your blog feed to your newsletter
- Specify a delivery schedule(s)
- Combine several RSS feeds into one newsletter
- Add a back-up feed if you need more content
- Limit the number of articles shared within each newsletter delivery cycle
- Create newsletters by category, author, subject matter and more for precise targeting
- Track the performance data of both social and email channels in one dashboard
The tutorial below walks you through the process of creating a "smart" RSS feed that will be used to power your RSS-to-Email newsletter on MailChimp or any email service provider that provides similar functionality.
Step 1. Create a dlvr.it route
If you are not a dlvr.it user, sign-up for dlvr.it and we'll walk you through your first route set-up. If you already have a dlvr.it account, sign-in and click "+ Add Route" on the home screen.
Step 2. Name the new route and add an RSS feed
This can be your blog's RSS feed or any RSS feed you want. You can add multiple RSS feeds if needed.
Step 3. Choose an update cycle
Click the "Feed Update" tab and choose a Feed Update Period. This depends upon how much content you write, how many blog posts you want to appear in your newsletter and how often you send out a newsletter. You'll need to determine the right ratio. Unless you are sending out content multiple times per day, choose "Once a day" for the Feed Update Period.
Step 4. Finely tune the content you share in your newsletter
Skip this step if you want your email subscribers to see everything you write on your blog. Click the "Filters" tab. If you prefer to create multiple newsletters or only share select content, fill in the appropriate boxes. For example, you could create unique newsletters by blog category or specific authors or when you write about <fill in the blank> only. NOTE: If you are creating multiple newsletters, you'll need to follow these steps for each unique RSS-to-Email newsletter you are creating.
Step 5. Set-up a delivery schedule
Click the "Scheduling" tab and when done click "save source" (bottom right). Maybe you want to send a newsletter out at a specific time(s) and day(s). dlvr.it holds the content in the RSS feed and alerts your Email-to-Newsletter provider that there is content available at the specified time(s) and day(s) you select.
Step 6. Click "+ add" to create a smart RSS feed
Step 7. Choose the RSS icon

Hi to any in 上海!
I'm back, and with my family in tow this time, living in 徐家汇, and more than ready to take the bicycle plunge since strolling with a 2-year old is absolutely anti-fun. Last time my wife and i were here we had no kid, and so getting about was easy-peasy. Now, it's not so, and taking a cab is not a reliable option for the short journeys to and from 菜场 fresh markets---plus, a stroller is slow and doesn't carry much.
I want to just get a very local bike---absolutely nothing fancy, since it needs to be below the bike-thief radars for the most part, and if it gets stolen i don't want to shed a tear for loss of bicycle or the money invested (whereas my bike in the US i most certainly wold shed many a tear on both counts). I like the look of the 普通自行车 common single speeds with encased/enclosed drivetrains.
Any suggestions of makes, models, or stores? Any tips on riding in the streets? Any suggestions on places to buy safety gear for the kid (ps: it's not an "if" situation---the kid will be come on the bike with me; it's a "how" situation, as in how will she be outfitted best)? All opinions solicited, as long as they're relevant to cycling in metro-Shanghai.
I speak functionally fluent Mandarin, and have lots of local connections, so buying super local won't be a problem, so long as i know what to look for.
Lastly, if anyone is in town and wants to chat bikes, let me know. Cheers!

There is no spoon.
Maybe there was prior to 1999. But that was before everything changed.
During the summer of 1999, humanity suddenly had a choice between the red pill and the blue pill. We learned the first (and second) rule of fight club. We saw dead people. We filed that TPS report. Yes, we had freed our minds. Whoa, Keanu said.
Whoa, indeed.
See, in 1999, the cinematic landscape changed, and by extension the universe. Say what you will about the reach of the music industry and television or the impact of literature and theater, but nowadays it's film that changes the game. Nothing produces fads, stirs controversy or reels in more dough than the Hollywood movie machine. So it's fitting to look back 10 years later on the year that changed the game more than any in recent memory.
It's a subjective study, to be sure, but there is some semblance of consensus in the pop culture media. When Entertainment Weekly announced its "new classics" in a recent issue, no less than eight films from 1999 made the top 100 list. The next closest year, 1994 (which was also great), had only six. You can also scan the highest-rated films on Internet Movie Database and see 1999 pop up throughout.
Or you can simply walk into the multiplex this summer to see the impact 1999 has had on this season's latest blockbusters. Try, if you can, to watch X-Men Origins: Wolverine and not think of The Matrix when a bullet flying through the air is shown in ultra-slow motion and cut in half by a sword. The effect is utterly reminiscent.
So which films from 1999 have had the most impact? It's open for debate, but here are a handful that stood out and why.
American Beauty. This Best Picture winner spawned a whole host of adult-themed dramas that shed light on the unhappiness lurking beneath the rosy faade of suburban bliss. The effect most notably rippled down to television with Desperate Housewives and its ilk.
Being John Malkovich. Weird is cool. It always had been for the eccentric set, but never had weird become cooler or more mainstream than after entering the bizarro world of Malkovich. Its best effect? A prominent career for scribe Charlie Kaufman, who also penned Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Synecdoche, New York.
Election and Rushmore. Smart, sassy outsider characters in high school replaced the usual jock-prom queen archetypal protagonists.
We have these films to thank for Mean Girls (the guiltiest of pleasures) and Juno, among others.
The Insider. One of the top five films they should study in journalism school, and likely the reason films like Good Night, and Good Luck and Frost Nixon were greenlit.
Magnolia. It was going to be tough to follow up on the critical and artistic success of Boogie Nights, but with Magnolia, P.T. Anderson showed he wasn't just a clever, would-be porn director. He had legit chops and from this one we could see films like There Will Be Blood in his future.
Three Kings. The first notable and solid Gulf War movie, it opened the door for films like Jarhead, The Kingdom and HBO's fantastic miniseries Generation Kill.
Eyes Wide Shut. At first glance, it appeared as though Stanley Kubrick made a film about Nicole Kidman's ass. But in retrospect it was an important and worthy milestone since it also introduced audiences to Tom Cruise's "trying really hard to act" face — one that we'd see later in The Last Samurai and Valkyrie.
The Matrix. The granddaddy of all game-changers, this film's cultural impact and visual style can be seen in every action film that followed it. Let's conveniently ignore the sequels, though. It's better for everyone.
Run Lola Run and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The Bourne franchise can directly attribute its kinetic editing and pace to these earlier European hits.
Fight Club and The Sixth Sense. There is plenty to enjoy about these films from a visceral and narrative point of view, but their biggest contribution to modern cinema might be the advent of the mindfuck. There have been great plot twists throughout film history (Chinatown comes immediately to mind), but in David Fincher's Fight Club and in M. Night Shyamalan's Sixth Sense, the twists are so amped up it changes everything about the film you thought you were watching.
South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. Was The Simpsons movie inevitable or did South Park's earlier leap to the big screen grease the skids? If nothing else, it surely had some impact on the decision to show Bart Simpson's dong.
The Blair Witch Project. This high-profile yet dirt-cheap indie changed film marketing, if nothing else. Indeed, a mediocre thriller can be a smash hit if you market it right. All the "grassroots" film campaigns you see on Facebook and the like are direct descendents of the Blair Witch marketing project.
Office Space. The slacker comedy godfather that birthed TPS reports and "flair" in hipster lexicon is also responsible for Pineapple Express and Forgetting Sarah Marshall, among many others. (We're too stoned to count them all.)
Girl Interrupted, Bone Collector and Pushing Tin. 1999 was a breakout year for Angelina Jolie. Oh sure, she'd disrobed (and impressed) for Gia, and she lit up the otherwise ho-hum Playing by Heart, but it was her hat-trick of films in 1999 that unleashed her on the world stage. And just try to think of the world today without Angelina. For one, there would be a lot more orphans.
American Pie. Pundits have credited the first Pie with the resurrection of the R-rated comedy, and by default Judd Apatow.
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. It should be noted that it wasn't all guns and roses in 1999. It was also notable for the crap it introduced. Three words: Jar Jar Binks. Phantom Menace was thrust upon the world leading a whole generation of young men to experience their first bout of disappointment.

Ghoulish Grub
Here's a fun Halloween treat jar I made for My Favorite Things earlier this month, but forgot to post here. I used two different MFT sets - Ghoulish Label and Too Cute To Spook (currently out of stock). The jar is one of the squared 16-ounce clear plastic jars that are part of MFT's Perfect Packaging line, and the label set is designed to fit perfectly.
When I first made this earlier in the month, I filled it with some homemade green slime, but decided that was really horribly impractical. After all, those who are young enough to enjoy playing with slime are probably too young to get it in and out of the jar without making a complete mess of the decorating, know what I mean? So I switched to a new, clean jar and filled it with some black DOTS gumdrops that I found at my local Rite-Aid.
Here's a close-up of the label:
I used some Diamond Glaze to coat the drips, then for some "gross" factor, swirled in some black re-inker using a toothpick. Last, I added some glitter (sometimes a girl can't help herself).
And here's a close-up of the lid:
Here, I stamped the tree from Too Cute to Spook in VersaMark, clear embossed, then added the labels for the sentiment. Adorning those labels are some black crystals from MFT's Spooktacular Collection of Swarovski crystals.
Thanks for visiting!

It wasn't long ago that they were just kids having fun kicking a soccer ball. Now, it's their profession. It only seemed like yesterday...
It wasn't long ago that they were just kids having fun kicking a soccer ball. Now, it's their profession.
It only seemed like yesterday when Barb Besagno was looking back at her baby-faced sons Jacob and Nik in the backseat as she drove them to numerous youth soccer games and practices.
She spent countless hours as the designated driver and soccer mom. She relishes those moments now that both Jacob and Nikolas make a living as rookies playing professional soccer. The mother of four gets to watch her only two sons play against each other competitively for the first time.
Nikolas Besagno, the No. 1 pick in the 2005 Major League Soccer draft at age 16, joins his Real Salt Lake teammates for the first time for an exhibition tonight against older brother, Jacob, and his Seattle Sounders. Kickoff is 7 p.m. at Qwest Field.
"It's amazing to see what's happened," Barb Besagno said of her sons' ascent. "It's been Nik's dream and Jacob's dream to play soccer at the highest level. It's a proud moment to see two of your kids both on the same field getting to do what they love to do. It was just a little over a year ago that I was still driving Nik to club games."
Real Salt Lake at Seattle Sounders
When: Today, 7 p.m.
Where: Qwest Field
Records: Sounders 0-1-1, 1 point, tied for last place in 12-team USL First Division; Real Salt Lake, 1-3-2, 5 points, fourth in six-team Western Conference in 12-team Major League Soccer.
Radio: KKNW (1150 AM); KTFH (1680 AM) in Spanish.
Notes: The match was a result of first-year MLS franchise Real Salt Lake signing Sounders midfielder Leighton O'Brien. Most of the proceeds from this "friendly" and a small amount of cash were compensation for O'Brien inking a contract with Real Salt Lake. … O'Brien, who was in the third year of contract with Seattle, last suited up for the Sounders in 2003 and was 2002 A-League MVP while in a Sounders uniform. … Both teams are off to slow starts, with Real Salt Lake starting 0-3-1 on the road in its inaugural season. The Sounders are in the midst of a six-match homestand to open the season. … Maple Valley 16-year-old Nik Besagno, the No. 1 pick in the 2005 MLS draft by Real Salt Lake, joins his club for the first time for this match and could be on the field at the same time as older brother, Jacob, a rookie defender for the Sounders. Nik played with Real Salt Lake's Reserve Division squad on April 27, but has yet to suit up with the big club because of his commitment to the U.S. U-17 national team.
Tickets: Call the Sounders' team office at 206-622-3415 or Ticketmaster at 206-628-0888.

"The walls of our house, we're not even going to try to fix them until the kids are all gone," said Barb Besagno, whose soccer field on the family's 3-½-acre lot always drew crowds of kids. "The main hallway was always a soccer field. There was always a game in the hall."
The game has since moved elsewhere.
Nikolas , called by Nik by family and closest friends, became the second-youngest player drafted by the MLS, following 14-year-old Freddy Adu's selection in 2004. On Monday, Nik flew back home and spent time with his family. As many as 100 family and friends could be at Qwest Field tonight to support the soccer-playing Besagnos.
"I can't wait to play in front of everyone I know," said Nik Besagno, who has spent most his time with the U.S. U-17 national team since being drafted in January. "I'm excited to get to know my teammates. And, I get to play against my brother, and I've never done that in a real game."
When John and Barb Besagno moved to Maple Valley, John wanted integrate his kids — all home-schooled by Barb's sister Andrea Skeel of Seattle — into the community socially. He chose soccer as the means to do that.
"My husband thought it was a good sport, and he didn't want them to play football," said Barb, whose husband is a pilot for United Airlines. "He always thought it was something good for the kids, and he got really involved. It's just something he always enjoyed and cared about.
"Our kids always go kick the ball around with him. He's always been available to do that."
Nik Besagno doesn't remember a day at home without soccer. All the siblings started playing at age 4 or 5.
"I just grew up around it," he said. "It was nonstop soccer every weekend. My brother started the earliest he could start, and so did I. My dad was my coach. He coached all of us until we were 15 or 16. My mom was there to support us and make every game she could.
"There was always someone kicking the ball in our house. You couldn't get away from it."
The game's magnitude kept growing for the Besagnos when rumors of Nik becoming MLS's top pick began to surface last October. Then, in December, came Jacob helping Seattle University to an NCAA Division II national championship.
Then Nik was taken by expansion Real Salt Lake with the top pick in the MLS draft in January. Nik has since balanced his U.S. U-17 national team commitment, private school in the U-17 accelerated residency program in Bradenton, Fla., and his rookie season as a pro.
"It's been an extremely interesting year," Barb said. "It's been quite a whirlwind. It's exciting they get to do what they want, but we miss them."
The older brother always had an influence on Nik, who will graduate from high school early on May 21. Now the playing field is bigger, and Jacob, 21, couldn't be happier for his little brother's big-time rise into the pro game.
"I was just extremely proud," said Jacob, who hopes to finish his marketing degree at Seattle University this spring. "My (Seattle U.) roommates and I got up early to watch the draft. We were just clapping. It was unreal to watch. You can't believe it's happening to your little brother."
It's unlikely the brothers, who both play a physical brand of soccer, will cross paths much with Nik playing a defensive midfield position and Jacob manning central defender duties. Both will likely be listed as substitutes.
Mom would just as soon have no team win tonight's match.
"I hope it ends in a draw," Barb Besagno said with a laugh. "It might be easier that way."

Why do you think Archeops is bad? I used one in Black and he was AMAZING! He really ripped apart teams with Acrobatics.
I wasn't originally going to use him cos of his unfortunate ability but hey, if you give something a go you might not be disappointed.

Even if there is a type advantage over the enemy, Serperior can't deliver a one hit KO from leaf blade.
Serperior wasn't the best for me, I just don't work in sync with Grass Starters. Mine did have a hindering nature which made it hard for me, cos he couldn't even KO anything easily unless if he got a Coil boost.

Emboar actually turned out good for me, probably because the one I used had a beneficial nature and good IVs in Speed.
I know he's stuck with Arm Thrust until you get to the 6th Gym (as far as Fighting moves go) but once you get a Heart Scale, you can get him to learn Hammer Arm which hits HARD.

In the beginning of the game where you must face the first gym leader he can be quite a help (even though there's a type advantage against you), but so are the other starters that I bashed. Just like every other starter in the generation, he eventually isn't relevant later on in the game. I have boxed all of my starters due to this.
Samurott did the best out of the starters, at least for me. It's just that I work well with Water Starters not to mention his stats are balanced and can use both special and physical attacks effectively.
Mine has a balanced moveset and he will always be one of my best.

Headed for the swamp for Bigfoot hunt
I had a chance to work with Dave Lauer and Stacey Brown Jr, and others on a special edition Bigfoot investigation. There were eight guys going. Some I have worked with before. The area was an enchanted old Indian tribal area. So I knew it was going to be a great weekend.
This is the lady that oversees the site. She is pointing out to Stacey where we are to go. The sun was setting and I was stoked. More later.

Tom and I left Lettuce Lake and went up the Hillsborough River. We were looking for the Skunk Ape sighting area and I think we found it. I liked having a nonbelievers with me. He is going to want to see it with his own eyes.
It was a beautiful winter day in Florida. When I think of all the snow up north, I realized how good we got it here.I've got some good video coming up.

Florida BFRO and biased investigation of Lettuce lake Skunk Ape video
|Photo of Matt and Justin taken 2012
This was unethical, for it only involved the reporting of a mythical beast and the privacy of the witness should have been protected regardless of personal feeling. This is a tactic they have often used on enemies and people who may undermine their power base. They believe they are the governing body of all things Bigfoot. They are not.
It is becoming clear that these guys may have pulled something. But why roast them in public? That is only to feed the trolls. I know this first hand. Someone went so far as to run a criminal background investigation on me and post it on the web. I would not have been surprised if someone in your group did that. These kids did not want to be on the Finding Bigfoot TV show. They did not seek money or fame. The only reason people found out about them was because they were hounded. I really thought the BFRO protected the privacy of all witnesses.
|R. Monteith has "confirmation bias" except with Kevin and I
There is nothing in any ones lifestyle that would preclude them from getting the money shot. To dismiss them by slander and accusation without ever addressing the issue of the presented video is wrong. I thought your org was the only scientific org researching Bigfoot. Why this turn to tabloid sensationalism?
A week before the video was shot photos of large Sasquatch prints were sent to me and ABC Action News in Tampa. They were taken by a women named Marie. They were impressive and the news channel did a story on them.
The BFRO never mentioned that they were found in Lettuce Lake park and by someone not related to these people. I had contact with the lady. It was clear that something had moved downstream from the watershed and had found cover and food in the park area.

Lettuce Lake Park observation tower
This tower will be home base tomorrow as I do an investigation into the recent Skunk Ape video. I believe its real. There is a lot going on in the video that a couple of pranksters would never have included, or thought of. I believe its the best Bigfoot footage since the Freeman Film. I don't make that statement lightly.

Roswell and Glenn Dennis claims of small, non human bodies.
|Mortician Glenn Dennis of Roswell New Mexico
|A napkin from 50 years ago
The name he would later give for the nurse could never be verified. No such person was ever in the military. Supporters of Dennis claim he was mearly protecting the identity of the nurse because she may have been in fear of her life. Dennis's credibility has come under heavy attack over the years as there is just no way to cooberate his story. Anyway, I find it interesting that if that napkin is authentic, it could be one of the first descriptions of a Gray Alien. That by itself makes it something of historical interest.
I have come across many articles on the net and it is exhausting. The amount of research that has gone into this has taken decades to unfold. I just could not read everything that is out there about it. I do recommend at blogger and UFO investigator Kevin Randle and his article on Glenn Davis from a different Perspective.

BREAKING: Daily Mail reports a UFO was filmed near the space station
The Daily Mail seems to find a lot of these videos and never allows an embeding code. I did find at gif of the UFO object that was reported and here is a recent video that shows activity near the space station. In fact, UFO's seem to be very interested in the station

Bigfoot Expedition Concession Stand Camp Green Swamp
Green Swamp wilderness west track to do an overnight back country backpacking trip with our FaceBook group. This outing was organized by Nick who is new to Bigfoot and doing a great job. I got there around one and headed down main grade road to find the cut for the Florida Trail which would headed north to the camp. I passed a bunch of campers at the equestrIan camp who must of thought I looked funny dragging a suitcase like I was looking for the Hilton. I was hoping to have all of us hike to the campsite as a group but it was not to be. Kevin and Teri were doing something that day and would arrive later, and Nick was feeding the homeless. I did not even know that Rob was going to make it but it would be well after dark before he could arrive. No problem. Rob is retired Army and teaches ROTC. He thrives in the woods at night

The other day I was informed by someone much younger than me that I am "getting old."
Boy, you get a little gray hair and some wrinkles around your eyes and express the opinion that most of today's pop music is unlistenable garbage, and all of a sudden people think you're past your expiration date.
I beg to differ. I am not "getting old." "Getting old" is a rude and indelicate expression. It is blunt and abrupt and a little insulting. And when I am concerned, it is simply not the case.
Yes, I have a few years, but am I old? No way. I am:
Piling up some miles on the odometer
Generously seasoned
OK, make that very experienced
A collector's item
An authentic piece of
mid-20th Century Americana
Blessed with good shelf life
Nicely aged
More than a little peeved.
Old? I'll show you old. I'd arm-wrestle to prove how non-old I am, but for last couple of years I've had this popping noise in my elbow and … well, never mind. I just don't think I'm old. I'll settle for older but not old.
Old is when you go flipping through the channels on Saturday night, pause on a Lawrence Welk rerun on public TV and say to yourself, "Seen it."
Old — for men — is when you see Fred Mertz on "I Love Lucy," with his pants buckled around the armpits, and think to yourself, "That looks comfortable."
Old — for women — is when you see Fred Mertz and say the same thing.
Old is when you see doctors, plural. And they all seem to be about 17.
Old is when all your shoes are slip-ons because it's just too difficult to tie them, except for your walking shoes, which fasten with Velcro®.
Old is when the weather is never good except for two days in the spring and two in the fall.
Old is when everything you used to eat is off-limits, and everything you can eat gives you gas.
Old is the people who were ahead of you in school.
Old is a state of mind. If others look at you and state it, you mind.
OK, all kidding aside, I'm not really upset. From the perspective of a young person just getting a start in life, I suppose I do seem old. And I do old-person things, like reject the music of today, for the most part, in favor of what I grew up with.
But that's as it should be. I'm not supposed to like the music kids like. It would be weird if I did and against the law of nature that says each generation is required to produce music the previous generation cannot stand.
But mostly I can look at my life and see that it has been pretty amazing, going as it has from party lines to cellphones, typewriters to computers, actual friendships to Facebook. And it took some time for all that to happen.
But it doesn't make me old. Heck, I don't even qualify for retirement benefits yet. And besides, I still wear lace-up tennis shoes instead of the Velcro® kind. I'm not old.
I'm classic.

What was involved? A Raspberry PI (Model B Revision 2 – important for GPIO pin locations and hardware specifications), a "standard Car display from China" with two 2 video-in ports, an audio amplifier, an NF Filter, switches, wood (for the front panel) and wires…
There's also a 12V to 5V converter – "because the Rasbperry works with 5V and my car uses 12V, I bought some cheap converters from China for a cigar lighter and dissembled them for my purposes".
Check out the web page detailing his work – there are lots of pics, a video, and running commentary on the various problems and pitfalls he encountered. He also supplies links to download the source code, scripts to preconfigure your Linux, and the complete image (Part1, Part2, Part3) for a 4GB SD Card.
For example:
I put all parts together, installed a raspian image to a class 10 sd card and used VLC to tested if the sound and display came up. The first problem was that i had no sound. After some searching, i found the solution in changing the standard sound device of the raspi which should be "analog" for my project and not "digital". I will add every tutorial i used to change Linux at the end of this page, so you wont spent that much time i did for realizing this project.

Reliable Broadcast Protocols and Network Architecture: Tradeoffs and Lower Bounds
Permanent Linkhttp://hdl.handle.net/1813/6594

Babaoglu, Ozalp; Drummond, Rogerio; Stephenson, Patrick
Reliable Broadcast is a mechanism by which a processor in a distributed system disseminates a value to all other processors in the presence of both communication and processor failures. Protocols to achieve Reliable Broadcast are at the heart of most fault-tolerant applications. We characterize the execution time of Reliable Broadcast protocols as a function of the properties of the underlying communication network. The class of networks considered includes familiar communication structures such as fully-connected point-to-point graphs, linear chains, rings, broadcast networks (such as Ethernet) and buses. We derive a protocol that implements Reliable Broadcast for any member within this class. We present a novel proof technique to obtain lower bound results for Reliable Broadcast in this environment. This proof technique is based on graph mappings. The hardware-software tradeoffs that are revealed between performance, resiliency and network cost offer many new alternatives previously not considered in designing fault-tolerant systems.
