Nice Place For A Change of PacePosted on 04 / 13 / 2013
We've been to the Cathedral Cafe twice now and really enjoy it. I have chosen the vegetarian panini sans cheese and mayo. My wife has tried two of the soups, one more flavorful than the other. She highly recommends the lentil and mushroom soup. She also orders the hummus which is outstanding.
Cons: a bit pricey

Par Love to Shop TSC

I purchased these on sale in a lot of 2. I have used them to hang all my bracelets and necklaces. A really hand item and makes selecting the jewelery I wear every day really accessible.

The compartments are very small and the other side is for hanging jewellery, no zipper for security and can only support a maximum of 4 pounds.I will give it my granddaughter as it is becoming more and more expensive to send back anything and considering that this item,s s&h being $11.47....
Nice looking storage option
Par Shellie

I have one hanging on the wall in the bedroom and even with jewellry in it, it looks more like a funky art piece which I didn't expect.To get two for that price is excellent and I'll give the other as a gift.
Very Cute
Par Rose by the lake
de Keswick, ON
I purchased them as Valentine gifts for my daughter & daughter-in law. They depict their curvy figures but also organize their jewelry :)
Par Chris
de Amherstburg, ON
I have a lot of very nice, quality pieces of costume jewellery (much of which I purchased through TSC) that I desperately need to organize. I thought it was a cute idea that since this organizer hangs in your closet it should be shaped like a dress. However, I find that you really are limited as to how much you can store due to the weight restriction (4 lbs.). I find that the clear pockets are too small to hold several items. Also the placement of the hook & tab closures doesn't guarantee that larger/longer necklaces won't become tangled. Since this purchase, I have come across other organizers that I hadn't noticed previously on the TSC site.
Par Josette
de Toronto, Ontario
I like these. I have them hanging in my closet and filled with jewellery. Pockets in the front and tabs on which to hang necklaces in the back. Very practical. Easy to see what you've got and make a selection. Very feminine and pretty. Sturdy hanger. Hangs nicely in the closet like an item of clothing.The pink bows are a pretty added touch.
One for me and one was gifted
Par Sandi

Now my daughter & I have all of our jewellery organized. Dancing queen has said it all. A super buy that keeps all organized and available at a glance.My daughter has used hers as a design element in her black&white dressing room. It looks phenomenal!A great buy and practical organization. So glad I made the purchase.
This is spectacular!

I have so much jewelry that I didn't think I would ever get organized, and I've tried every thing believe me, and then this!........it's wonderful....I can see every thing at a glance, I am wearing pieces that I had forgotten I had.....everyone should have one of these (or two)...you will be simply amazed!

We Must Learn From The Lessons Of Afghanistan To Extinguish ISIS
The lessons of Afghanistan were purchased at a bitter cost: the war claimed more lives, more years, and more money than any other campaign in NATO's history. Unless the alliance takes those lessons to heart, a war in Syria and Iraq to extinguish Daesh -- the self-styled "Islamic State" -- will be worse. In any military campaign against Daesh, how will we identify effective allies on the ground, who are less pernicious than our common enemy? How will we ensure that neither chaos nor tyranny fill the vacuum left after a successful campaign? Whom will Syrians be able to trust to rebuild their country?

The first 21 years of former Butler University women's basketball player Haley Howard's life included one concussion.
She doesn't want to experience a second.
Early in the 2013-14 season, the Whiteland Community High School product dove for a loose ball in practice and slammed into the back of 6-foot-1 forward Ijeoma Uchendo.
"I got a really bad concussion, and I got whiplash," said Howard, who recently announced she would be transferring to a yet-to-be-named Division I school. "It took two or three weeks for me to recover. I had a headache and felt sick all of the time. It was awful.
"The worst part was always having a headache and just feeling sick and groggy. Compared to the leg injury (stress fracture in her left femur) I had the year before,
the concussion wasn't that bad. But as far as homework and just falling behind, it's the worst."
An ally to young concussion sufferers is the Indiana Sports Concussion Network.
Founded in 2008, ISCN's purpose is to reduce the number of concussions that go undetected, untreated or are improperly treated in Indiana.
The network offers Immediate Post-concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT) to the state's high school athletes and is funded in part by a donation from the Indianapolis Colts.
ISCN's co-directors are Dr. Hank Feuer and Dr. Terry Horner.
"A couple things he and I do are teach doctors and nurse practitioners," said Feuer, who in the past has worked with Indiana University football teams and the Indianapolis Colts. "We go over all the examinations and what needs to be done in an office setting.
"We've trained quite a few doctors, and what that's doing is allowing doctors and nurse practitioners to basically do what we've been doing. Education and awareness are the two major things. It's about changing the culture."
There are a total of 169 Indiana Sports Concussion Network clinicians throughout the state, including three in Johnson County. All have been trained to administer and ultimately read ImPACT post-injury tests.
Test results include a play-plan designed to help ensure proper recovery and full healing of the brain. Such measures help prevent an athlete from returning to his or her athletic competition prematurely.
Because of its physical nature, football offers the biggest risk of concussion. According to the Sports Concussion Institute, a male has a 75 percent chance for concussion, while soccer offers the highest risk for females (50 percent).
Moreover, 78 percent of athlete concussions occur during games rather than practices.
"The fact is people get concussions in every other sport, but you only hear about it with football," said Aaron Hohlt, formerly president of the Center Grove Bantam Football League. "The fact of the matter is it's more dangerous for your first-grader to ride a bike than it is to play football.
"Don't attack one sport. That's where I get frustrated."
The required culture change Feuer speaks of encompasses all sports and both genders.
Everything from cross-country to volleyball to wrestling to baseball includes risk of concussion.
"Only now are we taking the educational steps necessary to instinctly and willingly act when such injury takes place," he said. "The main goal is to see if we can get everybody on board. I'm talking coaches, parents, everybody.
"Let's be aware."

I'm getting Error 102 when I try to launch the game - I enter my password but when I click "Play" it states that "Pirate 101 has encountered a problem. You or your parent may need to take action before you can play again."
The suggested solution is to reinstall, but I really don't want to have to go through that. Any suggestions before I reinstall? Thanks.

I've been taking overnight camping trips for the last few years. Sometimes these are called S24O trips, although the term seems to me to be more convenient for Google searches.
Seems to be a little different than most touring. For me, it involves riding out on a Saturday, camping out in a state or county park and then coming back on Sunday.
Just wondering if others do this and what's different than multi-day touring? For example, I've settled on 4 small panniers with tent in the front and clothes/food in the back. Weight is 25-30 pounds including pannier weight.
Bike? I use a sport touring bike, a 2006 Bianchi Volpe, that has a truly ancient Zefal rear rack and a low-rider rack up front.
Tent? Use a Eureka Spitfire 2-man tent that I bought off eBay. Under 5 pounds. Great tent < $100.
Stove? I have an alcohol stove -- Trangia -- but often just travel without. Buy some sandwiches or something in an adjacent town.
Mileage? Due to my advanced age (58), I prefer to do 80 miles roundtrips. 40 miles seems like a nice outing. Around here, you get far enough out of town. Yet, my legs don't feel like rubber next day.
What have I learned? It's amazing how I've picked up new spots to camp in. My first experiences were in State parks that were crowded and noisy. But by looking around for more obscure campsites and also changing my pattern to do a Sunday/Monday trip, I've had pretty good success.
Got to say... if you are stuck at a desk job during the week, an overnight bike camping trip is hard to beat.
OK, so tell me... have you done any of these?

The hauntingly soulful voice of singer Jenny Lewis has drawn legions of fans to the L.A. band Rilo Kiley. Since releasing its first CD in 2001, the band has gradually abandoned its weepy pop-country sound for '80s-inspired college rock and new wave, but the incandescent passion in Lewis' voice has remained, drawing comparisons to Loretta Lynn and Neko Case. Now on tour in support of Under the Blacklight, Rilo Kiley visits Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club for a full concert, originally webcast live on NPR.org Sept. 26.
Lewis recently returned to Rilo Kiley after taking time off for a brief solo run. Her 2006 album Rabbit Fur Coat (featured in a live concert on NPR.org by Lewis) was a surprise hit. Steeped in blue-eyed soul, gospel and rock, the album featured guest appearances by Conor Oberst, M. Ward and Ben Gibbard, and ultimately charted higher than any previous Rilo Kiley CD.
With Rilo Kiley's Under the Blacklight, Lewis sounds more sultry and seductive than ever before. The album explores seedy tales of drinking, one-night stands, jilted lovers and the sex industry, all illuminated by a nightclub's dingy blacklight. Out on Warner Bros., it's Rilo Kiley's major-label debut.
Rilo Kiley first formed in 1998, releasing its lo-fi debut Take Offs and Landings in 2001 on the Barsuk label. Under the Blacklight is the band's fourth full-length album. Following the early departure of original drummer Dave Brock, the group now features Jenny Lewis, Blake Sennett on guitar, bassist Pierre de Reeder and Jason Boesel on drums.

Pros: Short turns, low speed, moguls Cons: Straight-line stability, smoothness, off piste Lengths 140, 146, 152, 158 Sidecut 120/74/99 (152) Radius 13m (152) Dynastar Neva 74 Xpress £310 (includes bindings) Best for: Easy, confidence-building turns Rockered at the tips and tails, the Neva 74s have a sidewall construction and a wood core reinforced with fibreglass. Topping the group for short turns, low speed and moguls, they also perform superbly for liveliness/responsiveness and groomed piste. Easy turning with a bit of rebound, they help build confidence for novices but also have the ability to perform as techniques develop. They're best at low to medium speeds, but less stable in long turns. Pros: Short turns, low speed, liveliness/responsiveness, groomed piste, moguls Cons: Long turns, straight-line stability, high speed Lengths 143, 148, 153, 158, 163 Sidecut 124/74/100 (all lengths) Radius 13m (158) Head MYA No. 4 £345 (includes bindings) Best for: Blasting through cruddy off piste The front 20 per cent of these skis is rockered, and the tips contain Head's Intellifibres, which adapt to terrain by stiffening the skis electronically to reduce vibrations. The MYA No. 4s also have a partial cap construction. Safe and solid, these have a bit more beef than most in this category, and remain secure in faster turns. Really good all-terrain skis, they can blast through cruddier off piste, and will stay with you as you progress. But they're a little less responsive than some others. Pros: Edge hold, straight-line stability, smoothness, versatility Cons: Short turns, moguls Lengths 142, 149, 156, 163 Sidecut 125/77/108 (156) Radius 11.1m (156) K2 Empress £240 Best on test Best for: Easy pivoted turns in all snow conditions The Empresses are 20 per cent rockered at tips and tails, while the rest of the ski is flat, with zero camber. They have a cap construction and an aspen/paulownia wood core. Dominating the group for liveliness/responsiveness, versatility and groomed piste, they also perform very well for short turns, low speed and off piste. Delightfully light to throw around, pivot and slide, they make life easy. Short, skidded turns are what they love to do. Perfect for developing skiers, they're versatile enough to help you in all conditions, on or off piste. Pros: Short turns, low speed, liveliness/responsiveness, versatility, off piste, groomed piste Cons: Straight-line stability Lengths 149, 159, 169 Sidecut 113/85/104 Radius 17m (159) Line Celebrity £340 Best for: Ambitious off-piste learners Traditionally cambered with a cap construction and an aspen wood core reinforced with fibreglass, these are judged best of the category for off piste, and also perform solidly for long turns, low speed, smoothness, versatility and moguls. Light, poppy and easy to turn, the Celebritys love long turns. They're very consistent performers, making everything easy in all terrain at slow to medium speeds. Stable yet lively, they will stay with you as you progress. Pros: Long turns, low speed, smoothness, versatility, off piste, moguls Cons: None Lengths 147, 157, 167 Sidecut 115/85/112 (all lengths) Radius 13.7m (157) Majesty Local Beauty £319 Best for: Short turns at low speeds The traditionally cambered Local Beautys have a sidewall construction and a poplar/ash wood core reinforced with fibreglass. Intended primarily as freestyle skis, they're very light, but lack stability. They're quite twitchy at low speed, where they prefer to make short turns, and score extremely poorly for straight-line stability, smoothness, groomed piste and moguls. Pros: Short turns, liveliness/responsiveness Cons: Straight-line stability, smoothness, groomed piste, moguls Lengths 150, 160, 168 Sidecut 116/82/111 (all lengths) Radius 14.1m (160) Nordica Wild Belle £350 Best for: Powerful skiers, carving long turns Rockered at the tips, the Wild Belles have a sidewall construction and a wood core reinforced with carbon fibre. They top the group for edge hold, long turns, straight-line stability, high speed and smoothness. Stable at speed, they're very secure in cranked-up turns. They compare favourably with some expert all-mountain skis, and would suit powerful skiers as they require a bit of effort to get the best from them, especially at low speed. Pros: Edge hold, long turns, straight-line stability, high speed, smoothness Cons: Short turns, low speed, off piste Lengths 146, 154, 162, 170, 178 Sidecut 128/82/112 (all lengths) Radius 15m (162) Rossignol Temptation 78 £395 (includes bindings) Best for: Stability at speed The Temptation 78s are 30 per cent rockered at tips and tails and have a cap construction with sidewalls underfoot and a wood/fibreglass core. They score outstandingly for edge hold, long turns, straight-line stability, high speed, groomed piste and moguls. Super smooth and steady, these give you confidence to pick up the pace. Responsive, with energy at the end of the turn, they're lively, light, soft and forgiving, but less versatile than some in off-piste conditions. Pros: Edge hold, long turns, straight-line stability, high speed, groomed piste, moguls Cons: Short turns, off piste Lengths 142, 150, 158, 166, 174 Sidecut 122/78/111 (all lengths) Radius 15.4m (166) Salomon BBR Starlite £350 (includes bindings) Best for: Relaxed cruising, on or off piste The BBR Starlites have a large taper - wide, early rise tips and narrow tails. They have a partial cap construction and a synthetic core. Light and quick from edge to edge in short turns on piste, they're also easy when carving big turns. They're great for introducing first-timers to powder, but give less support when progressing up to stronger carved turns. Pros: Low speed, versatility Cons: Edge hold, long turns, straight-line stability, high speed Lengths 145, 155, 165 Sidecut 129/76/94 (155) Radius 12.2m (155) Völkl Chiara £475 (includes bindings) Best for: Upping the pace in all types of snow Rockered at the tips, the Chiaras have a cap construction with a wood core. They excel at edge hold, smoothness, liveliness/responsiveness and versatility, and score consistently across all other criteria. Quite light and flexible, they're very easy to steer and pivot in all conditions. But they'll also help you to progress to faster skiing, as they're super solid at speed - secure, stable and reassuring. Pros: Edge hold, smoothness, liveliness/responsiveness, versatility Cons: None Lengths 141, 148, 155, 162 Sidecut 123/77/97 (all lengths) Radius 15.7m (155) Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image Back to image

I used to fix this on a regular basis, at least every 2 weeks or so. My family loved it, and it's so easy to make.
i agree it was easy to make and with me working it is an easy way to get a good dinner to your family, especially if you forget to get something out for dinner.

SIR JEFFREY AMHERST, in his advice to the ministry, strenuously opposed the repeal of the stamp act. During the recess of parliament, Egmont, Conway, Dowdeswell, Dartmouth, and Charles Yorke met at the house of Rockingham. To modify, but not to repeal the American tax, and to enact the penalty of high treason against any one who, by speaking or writing, should impeach the legislative authority of parliament, were measures proposed in this assembly; but they did not prevail. The ministry could form no plan of mutual support, and decided nothing but the words of the speech. The world looked from them to a private man at Bath, unconnected and poor, vainly seeking relief from infirmities that would have crushed a less hopeful mind. The cabinet, therefore, yielding to Grafton and Conway, requested Pitt's advice as to the measures proper to be taken with regard to America, and expressed a desire, now or at any future time, for his reception among them as their head. To this vague and indefinite offer of place, unsanctioned by the king, Pitt answered that he would support those, and those only, who acted on true revolution principles. "My resolution," said he, "is taken; and, if I can crawl or be carried, I will deliver my mind and heart upon the state of America."
On the fourteenth of January 1766, the king acquainted parliament that "matters of importance had happened in America, and orders had been issued for the support of lawful authority." "Whatever remained to be done, he committed to their wisdom."

This what it is. A great deal
This review is from: Samsung HTQ70 Five DVD 5.1 Channel Home Theater Audio System
Pros: Where do I start USB port is a great feature.Digital input is fantastic when using with a sound card. Awesome Oh The manual states plain as day which cable to use.Fm radio,XmRadio, 2 aux connections. Its all there and more.I have 3 of these in different settings and they adjust to individual environments flawlessly.Every thing is adjustable by the remote Even volume on individual speakers.So if the movie your watching has a lot of bass a you can just lower the volume on the sub from your chair and if your T.V. was made after the I Love Lucy show aired Samsung has a code. Just read the directions it has ample codes available.If you want an inexpensive system that performs above its price range this is it.Did my homework this was my first choice. Also if you are designing a media center this is what you want, works great with my Audigy sound blaster card.Using either the digital hook up or just shooting a line
Cons: Remote is a little awkward but you get used to it.I use the included Samsung remote and I admit it took awhile to set up. It handles my TV's and other components flawlessly.
Other Thoughts: When writing a review I share the information I acquired while shopping.I don't buy a Chevy and say it lacks in comparison to my Bentley. Put this next to any system in the same price range and it will hold its own. A great buy from a great Company.

Samsung HT-Q70 Progress Report
This review is from: Samsung HTQ70 Five DVD 5.1 Channel Home Theater Audio System
Pros: - Sounds much better than the TV speakers, no surprise there.
Cons: - Speakers: Although much better than the TV speakers, they don't hold a candle to my AR-2ax speakers with 10" woofers driven by my vintage Onyko amp. The sub-woofer is weak. Again, it depends on what you're looking for. I mainly wanted to replace the TV speakers and for that it's excellent. They are never going to replace a serious setup for listening to music in detail, but they are okay for causal listening.
Other Thoughts: For controlling all this, I have a Harmony 520 remote which can be had for $xx at Wxxxxrt. The best thing about the unit is the "Activities" feature where, for example, to turn on the TV, the Set Top Box and the AVR with whatever settings you want to default to (channel, picture settings, etc.), you just push one button and it's all on. To turn off, you also just push one button. If you want to switch between watching the TV using the cable to a DVD, it's smart enough to know if the TV is already on so it doesn't toggle the on/off switch. It's programmed via the USB port so the database of device codes is always up to date. Once programmed, it's easy for my wife to operate (one button on, one button off with the channel and volume controls always using the same buttons).

Very good product!
This review is from: Samsung HTQ70 Five DVD 5.1 Channel Home Theater Audio System
Pros: Plays ac3 files (supports all 5 speakers) :) + other formats listed in manual, looks very good, sounds better :)
Cons: doesn't play ogg format :(
Other Thoughts: newegg rocks as always :)

Looks Good, Sounds Good
This review is from: Samsung HTQ70 Five DVD 5.1 Channel Home Theater Audio System
Pros: The unit looks good in my cabinet and sounds good in my family room. The setup and alignment was easy. The "speaker delay time" and audio/video sync set up was easy. DVD playback looks great on my HDTV. The five disk carousel works fine. All the DVD operator functions imaginable are there. The controls on the DVD/amp have a nice feel and operation. The manual is actually useful, large and easy to read. The cooling fan is quiet. Built-in are lots of extras, which most poeple won't use (wallpaper, predefined equalizer options.) The front USB port works fine for images and music, although it's finicky when it comes to playing back video files.
Cons: The remote. It works, but it's not intuitive and it's awkward to hold. The TV brand codes are limited so don't plan on using it to do much with the TV or other components.
Other Thoughts: The Samsung is a good deal for the money. Overall I'm pleased. There's no phase test capability built in so be sure and get the wiring correct. The HDMI input is useful if you have a secondary DVD player or similar. But, for whatever reason my Sony HD camcorder isn't compatible. I don't have the optional wireless rear speaker system or the XM satellite radio, but I'm sure they work fine. The input and output ports on the back are adequate, although I suspect I'm going to want a second HDMI In port soon.

sounds great
This review is from: Samsung HTQ70 Five DVD 5.1 Channel Home Theater Audio System
Pros: Excellent sound, automatic switching between surround modes, excellent subwoofer for the price, dvd player looks cool, usb port on front to hook up to usb memory stick drives is great for mp3's, setting volume levels for center, rear, and sub is easy.
Cons: batteries not included for remote :)
Other Thoughts: I don't have an HDTV so i really cant tell you how well it works with the newer TV's, although when scrolling through the menus there were tons of options for it. Same as I can't tell you how great the HDMI or Component hookups compare. Setup was pretty simple and strait forward. Watched Pearl Harbor, Saving Private Ryan, and some others and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I turned the sub level all the way up and the volume was already screaming and i never heard any distortion whatsoever. All in all, it is not earth shattering/ house shaking like a 1500 dollar system but it achieves its goal and sounds great doing it. Expect a knock on the door from the neighbors. And as always, Neweggs service is the best and the system arrived a day early. THANKS

The Various (2003)
by Steve Augarde
No current Talk conversations about this book.
An enchanting cover; the story, not so much.
It took five separate attempts over the last two months before I could finally push my way through to the end. Midge didn't talk, act or react like a 12-year-old girl, and I found the adults all rather self-involved and unlikable. So there weren't any characters with whom I really felt a strong connection.
The world of the Various should have been exciting and mesmerizing, but it just wasn't. It needed more oomph! I was almost - and I loathe to say this - bored. Perhaps it was too much description where not a whole lot was needed, and too little where it would've added depth and intrigue? For these reasons I will not check out books two and three. I will say that I rather enjoyed the perspective of the Various: how they saw the Gorji (humans); how they feared and avoided the felix (cats) at all costs; how they described and used books.
I would only recommend The Various to young readers, up to around age 10, who have not been exposed to much fantasy. Otherwise, the frequent readers and/or the older readers would likely give up on this one.
2.5 stars
Same old story: Girl discovers fairies,learns of the danger to fairies, and works to protect them. However, this story has great flesh - decent writing, a well described environment, and relatable characters. Really enjoyed Pegs. I would have liked a bit more with him. I will definitely read more of the series.
See What I Have Been Reading, February 2011 at From Word to Word
I really enjoyed this book. I found that it was different from all the other fairy books. I can't wait to read the other 2 books.
I felt this had a slow start but after that I was entirely hooked - have all three books on hand because once you get started you won't want to stop!
Augarde builds a beautiful, very real, location that you strongly want to visit with strong male, female and fairy characters! Midge and Celandine are really the centre of the trilogy which should engage the female interest yet there are battle scenes and adventure for boys too.
Unlike Pullman's His Dark Materials (also published by Fickling books), this isn't about saving the world but saving a tribe of fairy people, The Various, and giving them back a future after the world has been overrun by humans. Naturally, it's our children who help but they are allowed to age and develop over the three books, especially Celandine of the second book who we meet later in book 3 as a very old lady. This almost time travel aspect, jumping back and forward through the generations, makes these books more unusual than your average children's "save the fairies" story.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0440420296, Paperback)The idea of a race of little people (fairies) living secretly among us has had a powerful hold on the imaginations of writers from Shakespeare to Terry Pratchett and Eoin Colfer. In The Various, Steve Augarde has used this fascination brilliantly to craft the first novel of a trilogy full of breathless action and wonder. When twelve-year-old Midge is sent by her concert-violinist mother to spend the summer at the farm of her sweet but bungling Uncle Brian, her initial resentment gives way to delight in the freedom of exploring the countryside. When she discovers a tiny winged horse lying wounded in an outbuilding, she is awestruck to find out that he comes from a civilization of five various tribes of little people living in a nearby wood—-something readers will have already learned from alternate chapters set in the fairy world. Disaster threatens when Uncle Brian plans to sell the wood to a developer, and Midge and her cousins find (to their own peril), that some of the little people are not as helpless as they seem. Steve Augarde draws on his visual and auditory skills as a BBC animator and picture book author/illustrator for vividly realized detail—-the dumpy and addled fairy queen, the smells and moods of the English summer, the sharply differentiated accents and personalities of each of the five tribes—-in an entrancing debut fantasy. (Ages 10 to 14) --Patty Campbell

While staying on her uncle's rundown farm in the Somerset countryside, twelve-year-old Midge discovers that she has a special connection to the Various, a tribe of "strange, wild--and sometimes deadly" fairies struggling to maintain their existence in the nearby woods.… (more)

The tiny kingdom of Swaziland in southern Africa is getting ready for a national parliamentary election this year, amid expectations that the outcome will be a fraud on democracy.
All political parties are banned in the kingdom where King Mswati III is generally considered to be the last absolute monarch in sub-Saharan Africa.[view whole blog post ]

My name is Shaine Mata. I am excited to launch the Team Advantj website for my Solavei friends. This site will serve two purposes. First, I want to use this site as a resource to help you learn about not only the Solavei business; but also GSM technology. Second, the site will serve as a way of recognizing the hard work and dedication of other Solavei members who are really excelling in their business.
As a Resource
While I will be presenting some clarifications and explanations about GSM service and GSM phones, this should not be a substitute for our Solavei Support network. When you ask most mobile phone users what kind of phone they have, they may tell you the model name or the network name. For example, you'll hear that it is a "Galaxy SIII" or that it is a "Sprint phone". There is plenty of information available and an audience of members ready and willing to help with their expertise. This site is in addition to the Solavei Support forums.
Our first hurdle is that there is no "Solavei phone". The closest thing we have is a phone from GSM Nation, which ultimately is an unlocked GSM phone. Most mobile phone users are accustomed to buying the phone from the mobile provider, with a discount, and instant activation. For this reason, we have to be perfectly clear what is involved when switching over. We need a SIM card and an unlocked phone to get a new member started.
You do not have to know all about GSM technology; but, you should at least know what other mobile providers use GSM so that you know if their phones can be unlocked for use on our network. You should also know where to order GSM handsets and SIM cards. The idea behind Team Advantj is to help you retain the people who have switched over to Solavei thanks to your recommendation. We want to do right for them so they get the most out of their experience.
As a Celebration of Victories
We all need some recognition of our hard work from time to time. Team Advantj wants to celebrate the victories of our Solavei friends. We all deserve a pat on the back when we do a good job. We want to encourage and highlight success so that others can see what is possible.
Solavei has the potential to change lives for the better. The more we encourage others to take the bold step of taking their futures into their own hands through Solavei, the sooner they can start on the path to freedom.
Thank you for your attention.
Best of luck!
Shaine Mata

"Zillebeke and it's "road to hell"" Zillebeke by Pavlik_NL
Zillebeke Travel Guide: 21 reviews and 24 photos
Finally I had my chance to see "Ieper" and it's battlefields in South-Western Flanders. For my work I had to attend to a bourse in nearby Roeselare and as the organisation was in my hands I stayed four days in this neighborhood. As the bourse was in the weekend, I decided to claim at least an afternoon for myself in which I would pay tribute to the tragic history that this vicinity recalls. The centre now and then is "Ieper" (or "Ypres" as one says in English), but staying I recommend to everyone at the castlefarm 't Hooge, just a few kilometers East of Ieper in the village "Zillebeke".
The "Ieper" Saillant curved from the North of the town Eastwards and closed in the South. "Ieper" itself was like half surrounded and constantly shelled. Therefor this town was ruined after the first worldwar. Zillebeke however was between the heavily fighting on the Eastern front and the road going through here and over the hill called 't Hooge (means "the Hight") soon became nicknamed "the road to hell". Fighting over hilltops particularly was fierce as the strategic importance of them was significant. The castlefarm with the same name disappeared during bombing. It was for short a British headquarters in this part of the frontline. During the "mine battle" the British dug long tunnels underneath German strongholds and blew them simultanously skyhigh. The explosion was the heaviest conventional one in history. The mine crater is now in the hotel's garden, where one can also see some tranches.
On this page I want to stand still in what happened in the Great War around Ieper, but on this part of the frontline in particular. Zillebeke was covered with tranches at the time and was a hotspot on the Western front. Here British fought fiercely against the Germans, but regarding to British one should never forget that they were from all around the world (British Commonwealth, thus Irish, Canadian, Australian, Indian etc.). In Zillebeke are several cemetries and memorials at Hill 60 and Hill 62. They will all pass in my tips.

Defining Deviance
Sex, Science, and Delinquent Girls, 1890-1960
A historical study of the treatment of troubled girls, often perceived as threats to the American race
Defining Deviance analyzes how reformers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries perceived delinquent girls and their often troubled lives. Drawing on exclusive access to thousands of case files and other documents at the State Training School in Geneva, Illinois, Michael A. Rembis uses Illinois as a case study to show how implementation of involuntary commitment laws in the United States reflected eugenic thinking about juvenile delinquency.
Much more than an institutional history, Defining Deviance examines the cases of vulnerable young women to reveal the centrality of sex, class, gender, and disability in the formation of scientific and social reform. Rembis recounts the contestations between largely working-class teenage girls and the mostly female reformers and professionals who attempted to diagnose and treat them based on changing ideas of eugenics, gender, and impairment. He shows how generational roles and prevailing notions of gender and sexuality influenced reformers to restrict, control, and institutionalize undesirable "defectives" within society, and he details the girls' attempts to influence methods of diagnosis, discipline, and reform.
In tracing the historical evolution of ideologies of impairment and gender to show the central importance of gender to the construction of disability, Rembis reveals the larger national implications of the cases at the State Training School. His study provides new insights into the treatment of young women whom the dominant society perceived as threats to the sexual and eugenic purity of modern America.
"An excellent history of the involuntary commitment of delinquent girls. . . . Highly recommended."--Choice
"[Defining Deviance] brings to life new material on the policing of adolescent female sexuality and provides a new perspective on the rise of the therapeutic state."--Social Service Review
"Gripping first-hand narratives coupled with compelling statistics. . . . Rembis's robust research, careful methodology, and keen analyses make this book a worthwhile read."--Disability & Society
"Engaging. . . . careful and thoughtful scholarship."--The Annals of Iowa
"Michael A. Rembis rightly and bravely uses the example of female delinquency to make sharp historical and contemporary analyses of eugenics and disability. The smart, analytical, and broad historical context Rembis provides will elicit marvelous student discussions of questions of gender, power, deviance, and historical change."--Kim E. Nielsen, author of Beyond the Miracle Worker: The Remarkable Life of Anne Sullivan Macy and Her Extraordinary Friendship With Helen Keller

Black-White Conflict Isn't Society's Largest
It may surprise anyone who has been following the charges of racism that have flared up during the debate over President Obama's health care proposals, but the American public doesn't see race as the source of the strongest social conflict in the country today.
Take this Job and Love It
Self-employed adults are significantly more satisfied with their jobs than other workers. They're also more likely to work because they want to and not because they need a paycheck.
Recession Turns a Graying Office Grayer
The American work force is graying — and not just because the American population itself is graying. Older adults are staying in the labor force longer, and younger adults are staying out of it longer.
End-of-Life Decisions: How Americans Cope
While most Americans approve of laws that say treatment can be stopped if that's what a terminally ill patient desires, they are split on what they would do personally in that situation.
Forty Years After Woodstock, A Gentler Generation Gap
They have different values, beliefs and lifestyles, but young and old today are disagreeing without being disagreeable. Both also share a fondness for Woodstock-era rock and roll.
Go West, Old Man
If a latter-day Ponce de Leon were to search for a modern fountain of youth, he'd do well to explore America's West. There he'd find the highest concentration of older adults in the United States who don't think of themselves as old.
Nap Time
On a typical day, a third of the adults in the United States take a nap. Napping thrives among all demographic groups, but it's more widespread among some than others.
Growing Old in America: Expectations vs. Reality
There is a sizable gap between the expectations that young and middle-aged adults have about old age and the actual experiences reported by older adults themselves.
Most Middle-Aged Adults Are Rethinking Retirement Plans
In the midst of a recession that has taken a heavy toll on many nest eggs, just over half of all working adults ages 50 to 64 say they may delay their retirement — and another 16% say they never expect to stop working.
Different Age Groups, Different Recessions
Older adults are less likely than younger and middle-aged adults to say that in the past year they have cut back on spending; suffered losses in their retirement accounts; or experienced trouble paying for housing or medical care.

N.H. town on edge since teen vanished 15 yr old Abigail Hernandez still missing
In my city there's an Autistic boy missing in NYC for over 2 weeks.: This not a good thing and a nightmare for any parent.:
Boston Globe reports a dark-haired, dark-eyed girl peers out from a letter-sized poster taped to the doors of businesses lining Main Street in the tourist town of teenNorth Conway.
Missing, it says.
What happened to 15-year-old Abigail Hernandez, who disappeared Oct. 9, has people on edge in the town of 2,300 residents in Mount Washington Valley. There are shades of the still-unsolved killing of another young girl from rural New Hampshire two years ago: 11-year-old Celina Cass disappeared from her West Stewartstown home, and her body was recovered a week later in the Connecticut River.
Abigail left Kennett High School at 2:30 p.m. on a Wednesday and walked the same route she usually did toward the town house she shares with her mother about 2 miles away. When her mother returned home that evening, Abigail was missing and she hasn't been seen or heard from since.
''It's just that in places like a small town, it hits close to home,'' said Kelly Canfield as she worked the counter at Zeb's General Store, where plate-sized lollipops at the register catch the eye of younger visitors. Canfield has three children – a 10-year-old daughter and two sons, 13 and 6 – and has always felt safe. ''You see it happening in other places, but you don't expect it here. It's scary.''
More here
I pray she's found safe and sound!

Building Begins on New Jewish Homes in E. J'lem's Ras al-Amud Neighborhood
Construction has begun on another 60 housing units in the Jewish neighborhood of Maaleh Hazeitim, in East Jerusalem's Ras al-Amud section.
Fifty-one Jewish families already live in the small neighborhood, built on land purchased 15 years ago by the American millionaire Irwin Moskowitz, patron of the Ateret Cohanim organization.
The neighborhood's initial construction provoked an international storm in September 1997, and the United States pressured Israel not to go ahead with the plan. The pressure was rebuffed by former prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and backed by Jerusalem's mayor at the time, Ehud Olmert.
The new construction, with a municipal permit, is being carried out by Kedumim 3000, a company headed by Nachman Zoldan, father of Ido Zoldan who was murdered two months ago in a terror attack near Kedumim.
Right-wing activists ascribe great significance to widening Jewish construction in Ras al-Amud, and to realizing ownership of lots and buildings that it has managed to acquire in recent years in that vicinity.
According to their thinking, Maaleh Hazeitim makes it harder to create a Palestinian territorial corridor, a sort of "safe passage" between the West Bank to the east, and the Temple Mount.
In the past, Israeli-Palestinian talks included the idea of establishing such a corridor running through the old Jericho road, the Mount of Olives region, Motta Gur Street, up to the Lion's Gate and to the Temple Mount.

For their small business to survive, they joined the solidarity loan program Soro Yiriwaso through the village association Siguidja. They are on their sixth loan. All of their previous loans have been repaid.
They all get their supplies of diverse foodstuffs in Bamako once a month. In addition to selling these goods, some members do catering. With this loan, they intend to acquire 90 kg of fruit and vegetables and 105 kg of various food items. The projected monthly profit is estimated at 25,000 francs CFA.
Pour la survie de leur pétit commerce, elles ont intégré le programme de prêt solidaire de Soro Yiriwaso à travers l'association siguidja du village et elles sont à leur sixième prêt tous les prêts antérieurs ont été bien remboursés.
Elles s'approvisionnent toutes en diverses denrées alimentaires à Bamako une fois par mois. En plus de la vente des denrées alimentaires certains membres font de la restauration. Avec ce prêt elles comptent acquérir 90 kilogrammes de fruits et légumes et 105 kilogrammes de divers denrées alimentaires. Le bénéfice previsionnel mensuel est estimé à 25.000 FCFA.
Additional Information
Important InformationSoro Yiriwaso is a microfinance institution that works primarily in rural and semi-urban areas of Mali to provide underprivileged communities with access to financial services.The organization facilitates access for disadvantaged clients, particularly women, to new resources and services, fostering solidarity and cooperation among its clients. Kiva lenders' funds will enable Soro Yiriwaso to expand its outreach and target even more underserved Malians involved in business and agriculture.
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.
