Reviews for Tart Cranberry Apple Crisp
"My husband and I loved this recipe. I too omitted the wheat bran (didn't have any), used some fresh cranberries in addition to cranberry sance called for. I left the peel on the apples but next time I would peel the apples. It's wonderful and very easy. Can't wait to make it again!"
"This was very tasty. Next time I would peel the apples. Served to company and they really liked it and asked for the recipe. I used Golden Delicious apples and doubled the topping. This is going into the recipe box. I also served it with vanilla ice cream. Easy to do. I would have given five stars but didn't care for the apple peels."
"Very good dessert. I used Cool Whip for the topping. I will definitely make this again."
"Recipe was very tasty. I used brown sugar substitute in the crumb topping since there is a diabetic in my household. I would definitely peel the apples next time."
"Thought this was a great recipe. Loved the tart taste of cranberries and the sweeter taste of the apples. Will definitely make again."

The place is packed - SRO - on Saturday mornings. Regulars wait patiently behind their papers for seats at a table-or-better-at the counter, which are the equivalent of box seats at the ballet. Because a busy breakfast at Over the Counter requires an intricately choreographed dance on the part of the short-order cooks, backed by the corps de counter, while the waitresses move in and out of the hot grease zone.

KathyChung, Tuesday October 25, 2011 - 12:05pm
SiWC is over for another year. Here at SiWC Central, we're still deep in the midst of the post-conference information-overload hangover, not quite able to put together coherent sentences with any confidence. So with apologies for my own inability to think clearly, I simply want to say thank you.
Thank you to our presenters, for inspiring us and teaching us and talking with us, for being such great sports, for getting us and diving right in. We couldn't do it without you.
Thank you to our attendees, for coming and sharing your writing and your energy, for being excited and interested and open to new ideas, for embracing all SiWC has to offer and supporting our conference, and for honouring your own writing by giving yourself the time to come and focus on your craft.
Thank you to our volunteers, for all your hard work. Our conference runs on volunteer power, from the board to the person who checks your name tag at the door. We appreciate you for all you do.
Thank you to our very small staff. You do the work of several people, and it doesn't go unnoticed.
Next year, our 20th anniversary conference runs October 19-21, with master classes on the 18th. We hope you'll join us! We'll be back soon here on the blog, but in the meantime, thank you again!

As everyone was checking out and leaving on Sunday, I couldn't help but notice all the smiles and hugs being shared and the "see you next year" comments. Those are truly signs of a successful conference. Well done SIWC.

In researching writer's conferences to attend, I was struck by how people rave about SIWC and come back year after year after year. Now I understand why. A big thank you and congratulations to the SIWC gang for a very successful and enjoyable event!

Kathy, this conference would not be what it is without you! I really think this was our best year yet and I honestly believe next year will be even better!
Heartfelt thanks to all of you-volunteers, presenters and attendees alike-- it is your generous attitudes that keep me coming back to volunteer year after year. I love the feel of SiWC and the reciprocity that abounds in each and every nook and cranny. Thank you for filling my heart again!

Thank you! And can I add to my evaluation?
It was a wonderful conference, and I'll add my voice to the chorus of thanks to the board, the volunteers, the presenters, the hotel, and everyone. Thank you!
I don't know why my brain freezes up when I fill out evaluations, but it does, and I could not think of the person I thought might be a good addition to next year's presenters. But I've remembered it now! I think Sarah Wendell, of Smart Bitches, Trashy Books, and author of a couple of non-fic books about romance novels (including one that just came out this year) might make a good presenter. She goes to RWA cons and Romance Times, and is going to the East Coast Writers' Conference this weekend, so she may not be able to fit it in, but I sure would love to see her there.

Thank You. The Best of Times
It was a fabulous conference. I was inspired from the first Master Class to the last workshop and everything in between. It was a roller coaster of confidence and fear, "I can, I can't, I can."
A big thank you to the volunteers and the usual suspects. A job well done! See you next year.

This was my testing the water year: first writers conference, first professional writing workshops attended, first pitch, first Blue Pencil. Pretty sad for an old guy like me, but I wanted to tell you, nothing could have inspired me more to continue writing! This year I attended two master classes and only one day of the workshops, but next year, the whole thing, baby!
You guys put on a very professional, well organized event, and everyone I met or had dealings with were stellar in their client support.
I never knew we had such a gem in our own backyard.
Kudos to the organizers, the board, and the city of Surrey for holding this every year.
Being the 20th anniversary next year, I can only imagine how much fun it will be. I will be there and hopefully will be bringing another aspiring writer.
Great work!

Full SubmissionIndigenous Peoples towards Rio+20
Latin America and the Caribbean Centro para la Autonom�a y Desarrollo de los Pueblos Ind�genas - CADPI
Foro Internacional de Mujeres Ind�genas - FIMI Preamble: The situation of indigenous peoples is very different today than what it was at the time of the Earth Summit in 1992, when Latin America was on track to overcome the ravages of the "lost decade". In the same year (1992) celebration too place in Spain and Latin America, the encounter of two worlds: a process of commemoration that placed special attention to the agenda of indigenous peoples: their history, their condition, their struggles and especially the issue of their rights. Indigenous people?s organizations, emblematic men and women leaders worked to, on the memory of the event, raise a platform of fighting for the rights of indigenous peoples and for the rights of indigenous women once again. In these 20 years of hard work, endless patience, conviction in rights and reason, mobilized our people's and communities. It has been 20 years with many stories to tell: in 1992 Rigoberta Mench� received the Nobel Peace Prize, in recognition of her fight for the rights of indigenous peoples in Guatemala; in 1989 Convention 169 was signed which opened the decade with the first instrument of recognition of the existence and rights of indigenous peoples; in 1990 the historic march of the Confederation of indigenous Peoples of Bolivia; in 1994 two events coincided, the uprising of the Zapatista Movement for National Liberation in Mexico and the constitution of the Confederation of Indigenous Nationalities of Ecuador (CONAIE). Parallel to those developments and as a result thereof, in the 90s constitutional reforms are achieved in various Latin America States to be recognized as multinational and multiethnic states: Colombia 1991, Mexico 1992, Peru 1993, Bolivia 1994 and Ecuador 1998. The United Nations declares 1993 the International Year of Indigenous Peoples, in 1995 the first International Decade of Indigenous Peoples (1995 - 2005) is declared and, for the few achievements of the same, the Second Decade (2005 - 2015) is declared. On September 13, 2007, after two decades of hard work and struggle of indigenous peoples, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples is signed, in which States finally recognize, among others, the right of indigenous peoples to self-determination. This declaration is a milestone in the construction of the rights of indigenous peoples within the framework of the Rio +20, and strengthens their position within the international community. At the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, indigenous peoples made clear the position of our peoples through the Kari-Oca Declaration of Indigenous Peoples. The documents of the Summit, including the Rio Declaration and Agenda 21, recognized the vital role of indigenous peoples in sustainable development and identified us as one of the 9 Major Groups. At the World Summit on Sustainable Development (2002) (WSSD / Rio +10) in Johannesburg, South Africa, attended by more than one hundred Heads of State, the Kimberley Declaration and Plan of Implementation for Indigenous Peoples on Sustainable Development were adopted. In it, for the first time in UN history, the term "indigenous peoples" was used, a concept later adopted in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), adopted in 2007. In those conditions is that we demand participation in the process and in the Rio +20 Conference itself. The UNDRIP should serve as a basic framework for support to all national and international policies and programs for sustainable development. 20 years after Rio, Indigenous Peoples see that little has changed in the fundamental relationship between human societies and the natural world; we also observed that ecosystems, biodiversity and, therefore, Indigenous Peoples who depend on them, are increasingly threatened. There are continuing violations of the rights to our lands, territories, resources, and our right to self-determination by governments and corporations. Activists, men and women indigenous leaders that defend their territories continue to be harassed, tortured, vilified as "terrorists" and killed by powerful interests. In the absence of a real implementation of sustainable development, the world finds itself in a multiple crisis: ecological, economic and climatic, including biodiversity erosion, desertification, deglaciation, food shortages, water and Energy, a worsening global economic recession, social instability and crisis of values. In this sense we recognize that much remains in order for the multilateral environmental agreements to adequately address the rights and needs of indigenous peoples, and to recognize present and potential contributions of our peoples for a truly sustainable development that allows us all to live well. We continue to challenge this development model that promotes the domination of nature, relentless economic growth, resource extraction without limits for profit, unsustainable consumption and production patterns, unregulated products and financial markets. This prevailing system fails to understand that humans are an integral part of the natural world and does not respect the inherent human rights, including the rights of indigenous peoples. We believe that our world view and respect for natural law, our spirituality and culture and our values: reciprocity, harmony with nature, solidarity, community, caring and sharing among each other, are crucial to achieve a more just, equitable and sustainable world. We call on UN to ensure full, effective and formal participation of indigenous peoples in all processes and activities of the Rio +20 Conference, and its preparation and monitoring mechanisms, in accordance with the UNDRIP and the principle of Free Prior and Informed Consent. We continue inhabiting and preserving the last sustainable ecosystems and biodiversity hotspots in the world. We can substantially contribute to sustainable development, but we believe that a comprehensive framework for sustainable development should be promoted. This includes the integration of a human rights approach, an ecosystemic approach and a culturally sensitive approach based on the knowledge of our people. PROPOSED INDIGENOUS APPROACHES TO BE ADDRESS IN RIO +20: The United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, adopted on September 13, 2007, establishes a universal framework of minimum standards for the survival, dignity and welfare of indigenous peoples around the world. States and the United Nations have pledged to promote and guarantee the individual and collective rights included in this Declaration. The Declaration, constitutes the platform from which indigenous peoples, united in the common ideal of their rights, have developed their approaches and proposals. We are also aware that we are diverse peoples each with our own national and regional particularities; united in diversity, we are convinced that the Declaration constitutes an strategic breakthrough in the recognition, promotion and protection of the rights and freedoms of individuals and of indigenous peoples, whereupon, we invite and encourage States and all persons and organizations involved in the Rio +20 Conference to consider, both in their approaches and discussions, individual and collective rights that in addition to building our development and our liberties contribute to diversity, wealth of civilizations and cultures that constitute the common heritage of humanity. United in the pursuit of a sustainable development based on the principles of justice, democracy, respect for human rights and non discrimination, always in good faith, we make the following approaches and proposals: 1.�THE CONCEPT OF DEVELOPMENT FROM AN INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVE For indigenous peoples, living well does not only refer to the per capita income or economic growth, but is about cultural identity, harmony between human beings and Mother Earth. Living well is based on the values of the culture of life, coexistence and complementarity not only between individuals but in harmony between them and nature, responding to the protection of the common good and benefit of all. These approaches are shared by indigenous peoples around the world,[1] in the sense that indigenous peoples are in the search of a development model based on the practice of self-determination, on the basis that culture is a important pillar of development. In any case is characterized by having an integrated approach, holistic rather than sectoral, based on individual and collective rights and ensures control and self-government over lands, territories and resources. It is based on tradition and respect for our ancestors, complementarity and equality between men and women, thinking about next generations. From this perspective, indigenous peoples intend to analyze the following aspects of the concept and especially of the process of sustainable development: -�The importance of establishing as a starting point a consensus on the need to change the concept of development, stagnation and worsening environmental problems we now live across the globe constitute a compelling reason for the search of a new and different paradigm. -�We propose to renew the concept of development and improve the instruments for measurement: measure with statistics that fully include information about indigenous peoples, which identifies the diversity of indigenous people, women, youth, migrating populations, so that the information is not subject to the averages of a homogeneous population that always invisibilize inequalities and negative effects of an uneven and exclusionary development. -�Indigenous peoples propose that a new paradigm of Sustainable Development has to sustain itself in a holistic approach to development where the center and purpose of it are the people, communities and indigenous peoples and populations. We propose that people be considered the center of development. -�We propose that in order to have a holistic approach it?s important to review and supplement the pillars of development. These pillars can?t be antagonistic but complementary. In this sense our approach is that besides the three pillars: economic, social and environmental, the cultural pillar be incorporated in order to enrich and lead the process towards sustainability. -�Indigenous peoples propose that the analysis of cultural, social, economic and environmental developments, not be exclusive but complementary. For example, economic development policies have to incorporate not only production costs of productive processes, but must also incorporate the environmental, social and cultural costs: one example can be the calculation of environmental and health costs as well as cultural costs of large scale industrial food production (economic valuation ecosystem, destruction with monocrops, contribution to CO2 production by the transportation of food by multinational companies , etc.., threatens communities and towns because of the destruction of rural economies). -�The concept of poverty: indigenous peoples are not poor, we own territories, knowledge, rights and have the right to self-determination; indigenous peoples are living in poverty and vulnerable conditions, primarily because States -reduced to a minimum by structural adjustment policies -cannot protect our rights; we also find ourselves in this situation due to the unusual concentration of wealth in a small percentage of Latin Americans. We, the indigenous peoples, propose to review the concepts with which we describe our realities: poverty, vulnerability, sustainable development so that the analysis and proposals aim inequality causes and build feasibility for new development processes that incorporate the principles of individual and collective human rights. -�Finally, in regard to one of the central themes of the conference: green economy, we believe that full cooperation of individuals and institutions that participate in the Conference is needed, to build a green economy concept that can be inserted in concept of sustainable development, meaning that it considers the�human rights framework, equality between men and women, the concept of "good life" of indigenous peoples, as well as a framework for the development of fair economy in social , cultural and environmental terms. 2.�FOOD SOVEREIGNTY AND THE RIGHT TO FOOD In Latin America and the Caribbean, the rural population amounts to about 121 million people, of which 60 million are indigenous, at least half are women. Indigenous peoples have a special relationship with their territories and nature and this relationship covers all aspects of life, including social organization, economy, cultural aspects, cosmovision and history. It is important to highlight the role of indigenous women in the transmission and preservation of cultural patterns, such as language, means of production and forms of organization that make them strategic partners for the preservation of cultures, communities, sustainable production and distribution of food. Food sovereignty and security are crucial aspects of the notion of "good life" of indigenous peoples. Everyone has the right and responsibility to participate in the decision on how to produce and distribute food. The vision of food sovereignty entail a transformation in the current food system to ensure that those who produce food have equitable access to, and control over, land, water, seeds, fishing, agricultural biodiversity and all the technical and financial resources for production.[2] Considering that respect for indigenous knowledge, cultures and traditional practices of indigenous peoples contribute to food security, sustainable and equitable development and to a proper management of the environment, we make the following statements: -�It is important that States and international organizations recognize and support indigenous peoples traditional practices related to agro-ecology as well as various forms of food production (fishing, hunting, farming, harvesting and silvo-pastoral production ) as a basis for food sovereignty and the protection of biological diversity, traditional knowledge, as alternatives to models of unsustainable industrial food production, based on seeds, genetically modified plants and animals, and the use of toxic pesticides and other agro-chemicals. -�The United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues - an ECOSOC subsidiary body and forum for dialogue between states, agencies of the United Nations and indigenous peoples- has made recommendations noting that indigenous women are bearers and intergenerational transmitters of traditional knowledge on the conservation of biodiversity and sustainable environmental management, and in that sense have asked international agencies and governments to ensure their access to resources, including credit, new technologies and technical assistance for agriculture and food production; and that the experience of women is reflected in national and international sustainable development initiatives, ensuring consultation, free, prior and informed concent (FPIC) as well as effective participation in formulation and decision making processes. -�Indigenous people believe is important that States, international organizations and the private sector consider incorporating the Free Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC) for all decisions affecting territories, natural resources and production methods that affect the lives of people in general and indigenous peoples. -�We believe that since mining is an activity that produces large environmental pollution including greenhouse gases, and destroys natural ecosystems, health and food sources from which indigenous peoples and other communities depend upon; we call for a moratorium on mining on fragile and culturally significant ecosystems such as forests, deserts, water sources, sacred sites, subsistence areas, Arctic ecosystems and traditional territories. -�Reports indicate, that in Latin America, despite major advancements in economic growth, there still remain big challenges in the management of toxic chemicals and waste, which threatens human security in both urban and rural areas; the use of fertilizers has doubled since 1990. We Indigenous peoples pronounce ourselves on this fact, there is no way to solve a problem if the solution does not address the right causes. The reason why the use of agro-chemicals has doubled is because patterns of production and consumption of food have not been disputed. The large-scale industrial production and distribution are a structural part of the problems regarding food poverty, disease and pollution. -�We call for food sovereignty, sustainable and organic production, that ensure nutritious food quality, varied and naturally ripened, which also guarantee the recovery of local markets, the introduction of productive work; that expands the opportunities for local investment and economic, social and cultural development on healthy eating, with cultural identity and secure access. 3.�IMPACT OF THE ECONOMIC MODEL EXTRACTOR OF NATURAL RESOURCES ON THE BASIS OF A GOOD LIFE The Latin American region, in the framework of the global economic crisis, has made serious efforts to maintain a growing economy, unfortunately this growth has been based mainly on the intensive extraction of natural resources, which creates a great pressure on soils, water resources and all natural resources. Likewise, the manufacturing sectors continue being of low aggregate value and remain a marked heterogeneity in productivity among the various branches of economic activity; this situation is exacerbated by a high degree of ownership and wealth concentration, resulting in deep socioeconomic inequality 20 years ago in Rio, States recognized local and traditional knowledge of indigenous peoples, however, currently stress remains in two issues: On the one hand, we see a continued loss of our lands, biodiversity and natural resources resulting from occupation by third parties, extractive investment and even green extractive investments, the high rate of deforestation and degradation of soils, forests, marine coastal areas, swamps, sacred sites. In addition, extractive predation affects not only the integrity of the territory but also violates our rights in political and legal terms. This violation has broken the spiritual balance of our people, as it has affected the natural areas where the spirits or Dawan inhabit, considering them beings with powers that protect resources. As a consequence there has been a rupture of the balance between people that make up the indigenous world, leading to the loss of cultural and spiritual values. The spheres of culture, nature and interrelated policy, determine our survival as individuals and as people. And, the loss of balance between these elements or spaces, constitutes a cause for illness, death and imbalance. Faced with this reality, indigenous peoples committed to seek a development model based on the practice of self-determination, provide the following approaches: -�Recommend that the proposed "Green Economy" innitiative is defined and demonstrates its distance from the development model based on market approach and intensive extraction of resources. -�Express our opposition to the establishment of large tracts of monocrops for biofuel production, especially in our peoples territories- -�Propose that developing countries promote the construction of a new production model that on the one hand promotes local development, considering the territories with their human, economic and environmental capital to develop innovative processes to reduce the destruction, generate greater aggregate value and stimulate local markets. -�Likewise, raise the need for developed countries to emphasize on conservation and reduction of their consumption levels; so that productive projects are geared towards supporting and restoring local economies, markets and local production systems. -�Propose the respect for the implementation of human rights as well as the indigenous peoples rights, respect for our development proposals; we also propose that any discussion on economic models and the green economy, must include full and effective participation of people indigenous as well as the implementation of the free, prior and informed consent, of our peoples in all stages. -�Demand states and international organizations their compromise to harmonize the decision-making processes for economic, social, environmental and cultural development, to constitute a new paradigm of sustainable development based on the principles of justice, fairness and respect of ecosystems, natural resources and territories. 4.�LEGAL SECURITY AND THE RIGHT TO LAND Legal protection of the rights of Indigenous Peoples, now known as safeguards, to lands, territories, resources and traditional knowledge should be a prerequisite for the development and planning of any and all types of adaptation and mitigation measures against climate change, conservation of the environment (including the creation of "protected areas"), the sustainable use of biodiversity and measures to combat desertification. In all cases they must have the free, prior and informed consent of indigenous peoples, and therefore, we encourage States to take steps in this direction. -�Recommend that states, guarantors of the rights of indigenous peoples promote and facilitate the restoration of the natural patrimony and indigenous peoples' collective, re-establishing their rights, territorial spaces and integral management of their territories. -�Recommend that States and international organizations promote the strengthening of representations and territorial governments: the development of mechanisms for coordination, negotiation and alliances between communities for the joint protection of territory. -�Recommend as main requirements, legal protection of lands, territories, resources and traditional knowledge. We also recommend that traditional farming methods and practices of our peoples, based on healthy alternatives to pesticides be supported. -�Recommend that the term, food sovereignty, be used in place of food security and be adopted in Rio +20[3], for this term harmoniously links food security and territorial development. -�Propose the development of policy and regulatory frameworks that facilitate the coexistence within the framework of respect for individual and collective rights of indigenous peoples. 5. INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENING In recent decades, with recent constitutional reforms through which states recognize themselves as multinational, Multi-ethnic autonomous regions are created, as in the case of Bolivia and Nicaragua and spaces are open for effective governance with the participation of indigenous peoples as development actors and subjects of individual and collective rights. In the framework of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, it is of fundamental importance to build governance with the effective participation of indigenous peoples by strengthening their institutions, cultures and traditions to promote their development based on their aspirations and needs. For this purpose, we propose indigenous institutional strengthening in four strategic areas: .�Strengthening indigenous institutions that combine individual and collective characteristics, usually based on ancestral institutions, cosmology, rituals and spirituality, collective history, among others, that base their membership on collective identities as peoples. . Strengthening state institutions and civil society to promote the rights of indigenous peoples, rights of women, youth and the environment. .�Strengthening educational institutions of indigenous peoples, while also strengthening the multicultural approach to higher education institutions and research centers. .�Strengthening the development of synergies and coordination to enhance the capabilities and dynamics of sustainable development. In view of the above, indigenous peoples: -�Propose that States and international organizations promote and develop mechanisms for the incorporation of indigenous peoples and their representatives in decision-making, political participation, and at all levels of community representation, local and national. Therefore, it is important to develop positive actions at all levels, promote indigenous participation shares in both political parties and all expressions of governmental and nongovernmental organizations. -�Propose that States and international organizations, promote and protect the rights of indigenous peoples to maintain and strengthen their own institutions in order to demand their rights and participate in decision-making. -�States and international organizations shall consult and cooperate in good faith with indigenous peoples interested through their representative institutions before adopting and implementing legislative or administrative measures that affect them, in order to obtain their free, prior and informed. -�States and international organizations shall boost and assign resources for indigenous peoples to maintain and develop their political, economic, social and cultural institutions that protect their natural resources, human resources, environmental resources and freedoms, this will facilitate capacity building based on traditional and nontraditional knowledge. -�The development of institutions of higher education and vocational training proper of indigenous peoples themselves with institutional development strategies, coordination and articulation of knowledge, likewise educational institutions have a special role for systematization, theorizing and knowledge development of indigenous peoples as universal knowledge that contributes to global development. -�A very important aspect is the strengthening of state institutions that serve the rights of indigenous peoples and those that serve production, economics and sustainable development. Their strengthening must include the management of human rights frameworks and the rights of indigenous peoples. -�The strengthening of state institutions goes through the formation of work teams that, in the framework of the ethical principles of human rights, incorporate within their abilities the framework of rights, gender, generational and multicultural approaches. -�Last but not least, the development of synergies and inter-institutional articulations that allows a holistic view of development. Indigenous peoples propose a work plan for the development of inter-institutionalism and especially the development of synergies, partnerships and interlocutions with indigenous peoples organizations as well as other representatives of social movements united in the principles of justice and equity; youth organizations, women's organizations, peasant organizations and environmentalists. -�Finally, we propose as an important element the articulation and coordination of the actors involved. The joint work of the various national and local government agencies, UN agencies, and civil society organizations and peoples as partners, is critical to the advancement of any development process. 6. STRATEGIC RECOMMENDATIONS -�Indigenous peoples request that in Rio +20 formal structures for effective participation of indigenous peoples be promoted, defined and implemented, including women and youth in decision-making process within the Conference. -�Request that, in all areas of discussion in Rio +20, the participation of indigenous peoples be incorporated, considering their views, skills, knowledge and potential and not to prioritize poverty and backwardness, far from defining it discriminates them, excludes them and leaves them at a disadvantage in the development dialogue. -�We indigenous peoples propose that, States, United Nations agencies, international organizations and all persons and institutions involved, consider the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as a structural part of the human rights framework in which commitments to sustainable development are discussed and agreed. -�We also propose, that all agreements and proposals provide in the discussion as well as in the commitments, financial resources, technical, technological and human resources to ensure their implementation, we especially request States that, specialized agencies, United Nations agencies and other intergovernmental organizations commit to mobilizing the necessary resources to ensure the participation of indigenous peoples on an equal footing, in the processes of building a new model of sustainable development.

|Four tennis players ranked
SKILLMAN, N.J. - Four Idaho tennis players are receiving recognition in national and regional rankings, as the Intercollegiate Tennis Association released its first rankings of 2013.
The Idaho men's doubles pairing of Abid Akbar and Marius Cirstea checked in at No. 46 in the nation and No. 1 in the Mountain Region after winning the ITA regional doubles championship and advancing to the National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships in the fall.
"It's great to see both programs being recognized," Idaho Director of Tennis Jeff Beaman said. "This is a strong region. I feel Abid and Marius have the chance to be a top national team, and they have to potential to continue to move up in the rankings this spring."
Akbar is also ranked No. 7 in the Mountain Region singles rankings.
"Abid had a great fall and that is shown by his regional singles rank," Beaman said. "I'm excited to see what he can do this spring as a senior."
On the women's side, Almudena Sanz and Victoria Lozano are ranked No. 10 in Mountain Region doubles, while Sanz is No. 13 in the region in singles.
"Almudena finished very strong last year and carried it into the fall. I see both her and Vicky ending the year ranked in doubles and both of them being able to make their way into the national singles rankings."
The Vandal men begin the spring season on Jan. 20 at Eastern Washington, while the Idaho women open play on Jan. 19 at Washington State.

ZF-7918: Zend_Filter::filterStatic() include file not found warnings: namespaces
I'm having problems using namespaces. I wrote a few of my own filters and put them in LSS/Filter (which is correctly on the include path).
$type = 'Alpha'; // a builtin ZF filter
Zend_Filter::filterStatic( $value, $type, $params, array( 'LSS_Filter', 'Zend_Filter' ) );
results in
Warning: Zend_Loader::include(LSS/Filter/Alpha.php) [function.Zend-Loader-include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in
/Users/stevep/Documents/lss/projects/library/Zend/Loader.php on line 83
It seems that whatever namespace goes first will find its filters with no problems, second or subsequent namespaces result in a warning message even though it correctly loads the builtin Zend/Filter/Alpha.php The desired behaviour is that no warning message would be generated.
The problem can be easily fixed by putting an @ in front of the include statement in line 83 of Zend/Loader.php because in Zend/Filter.php the class loader blindly tries namespaces in order: (snippet below from that file, line 172ff)
if (!class_exists($className)) {
try {
} catch (Zend_Exception $ze) {
But the include warning is probably useful in other contexts? Maybe using Zend_Loader_Autoloader here would be a more permanent fix?
Fixed formatting.
Fixed with r18379
Zend_Loader_Autoloader::autoload() creates an instance of the autoloader internally, which appends itself to the spl_autoload_register() stack if not yet done before, for example when people have their own autoloaders this could potentially be a problem.
Is this a desired side-effect?
thomas, in regard to our discussion i think plugin loader is really the correct way to solve this problem.
Fixed with r18424

The election of Mike Lee put longtime U.S. Sen. Orrin Hatch on notice. And the octogenarian senior senator from Utah awkwardly adapted. To appeal to Teapartiers, he swung even farther right and abandoned nearly four decades of almost-moderation and bipartisanship.
Now, after Hatch soundly trounced conservative challenger Dan Liljenquist in last week's GOP primary, could it be the freshman senator is learning a lesson from his elder?
To recap: Lee owes his political life to the Tea Party. In 2010, arch conservatives packed Utah's caucuses and the State GOP convention to throw out Sen. Bob Bennett, a well-respected moderate, in favor of Lee—the lawyer for Envirocare, whose limited claims to fame included being the son of onetime Solicitor General Rex Lee, clerk to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and legal advisor to Gov. Jon Huntsman.
Lee, who had never held elected office before, had his marching orders. And he has represented that fringe of the Utah GOP well during his time in Washington—swearing fealty to Ayn Rand's brand of political narcissism, signing on for the debt ceiling debacle, posting endless online videos of himself dissecting the supposed legal weaknesses of Obamacare, blocking the president's judicial nominees with only South Carolina wing-nut (and Tea Party favorite) Jim De Mint for company.
Here's one of those videos on Obamacare…
Now, there are signs that Lee's instinct for self-preservation might be kicking in. This week, he said he might be willing to soften his zero-tolerance policy for President Obama's judicial nominees. He donned a seersucker suit and white bucks in an unusual show of bipartisan collegiality—despite others' giving up the gimmick of a different time in D.C.
Even the Supreme Court's ruling upholding the Affordable Care Act rendered him temporarily Tweetless, before he regrouped and climbed on the "Repeal and Replace" bandwagon.
Coincidence? Don't bet on it. With Hatch and the Mormon Church successfully loosening the Tea Party's grasp on Utah's GOP, Lee is smart enough to know he won't win the same way twice.

Cannabis is not just the most misused unlawful medication in the United States it is indeed the most ill-used illicit medication around the world. In the United States it is a timetable I substance which implies that it is legitimately considered as having no restorative utilization and it is profoundly addictive . In any case not all cannabis has ill-use potential. He thusly proposes utilizing the normal phrasing marijuana when alluding to cannabis with ill-use potential. For the purpose of clarity this phrasing is utilized as a part of this paper too.
Today, marijuana is at the front line of global contention debating the fittingness of its across the board illicit status. In numerous Union states it has gotten to be sanctioned for restorative purposes. This pattern is known as "therapeutic marijuana" and is firmly praised by promoters while at the same time despised cruelly by rivals. It is in this setting that it was chosen to pick the subject of the physical and pharmacological impacts of marijuana for the premise of this examination article.
What is marijuana?
Marijuana, also known as weed, is a plant all the more accurately called cannabis sativa. As specified, a few cannabis sativa plants don't have ill-use potential and are called hemp. Hemp is utilized generally for different fiber items including daily paper and craftsman's canvas. Cannabis sativa with ill-use potential is the thing that we call marijuana. It is intriguing to note that albeit broadly ponders for a long time, there is a considerable measure that scientists still don't think about marijuana. Neuroscientists and scholars recognize what the impacts of smoking marijuana are however regardless they don't completely comprehend why.
Pretty nearly four hundred known chemicals found in the cannabis plants, specialists know of more than sixty that are thought to have psychoactive impacts on the human mind. The most extraordinary and strong of these is a-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC. Whie we know a significant number of the neurophysical impacts of THC, the reasons THC produces these impacts are misty.
As a psychoactive substance, THC straightforwardly influences the focal sensory system (CNS). It influences a gigantic scope of neurotransmitters and catalyzes other biochemical and enzymatic action too. The CNS is fortified when the THC enacts particular neuroreceptors in the cerebrum creating the different physical and enthusiastic responses that will be explained all the more particularly further on. The main substances that can initiate neurotransmitters are substances that copy chemicals that the mind creates characteristically. The way that THC fortifies cerebrum capacity instructs researchers that the mind has characteristic cannabinoid receptors. It is still hazy why people have regular cannabinoid receptors and how they function. What we do know is that marijuana will fortify cannabinoid receptors up to twenty times more effectively than any of the body's common neurotransmitters ever could.
Maybe the greatest riddle of all is the relationship in the middle of THC and the neurotransmitter serotonin. Serotonin receptors are among the most fortified by all psychoactive medications, yet most particularly liquor and nicotine. Free of marijuana's association with the compound, serotonin is as of now somewhat comprehended neurochemical and its assumed neuroscientific parts of working and object are still for the most part speculative. What neuroscientists have discovered authoritatively is that marijuana smokers have elevated amounts of serotonin movement. I would estimate that it might be this relationship in the middle of THC and serotonin that clarifies the "marijuana upkeep system" of attaining to refraining from liquor and permits marijuana smokers to evade frightful withdrawal manifestations and dodge yearnings from liquor. The viability of "marijuana support" for helping liquor restraint is not logical however is a wonder I have actually seen with various customers.
Interestingly, marijuana mirrors such a variety of neurological responses of different medications that it is greatly hard to order in a particular class. Specialists will put it in any of these classes: hallucinogenic; psychedelic drug; or serotonin inhibitor. It has properties that copy comparable synthetic reactions as opioids. Other concoction reactions mirror stimulants. Somebody groups marijuana in its own particular exceptional class – cannabinoids. The explanation behind this perplexity is the multifaceted nature of the various psychoactive properties found inside marijuana, both known and obscure. One late customer I saw couldn't recoup from the visual contortions he endured as a consequence of pervasive hallucinogenic use the length of he was all the while smoking marijuana. This appeared to be as an aftereffect of the hallucinogenic properties found inside dynamic cannabis. Albeit not sufficiently solid to deliver these visual mutilations all alone, marijuana was sufficiently solid to keep the cerebrum from recuperating and recouping.
Cannibinoid receptors are spotted all through the cerebrum therefore influencing a wide mixture of working. The most vital on the passionate level is the incitement of the mind's core accumbens debasing the cerebrum's common prize focuses. An alternate is that of the amygdala which controls one's feelings and apprehensions.
I have watched that the overwhelming marijuana smokers who I work with by and by appear to impart a shared characteristic of utilizing the medication to deal with their indignation. This perception has confirm based results and is the premise of much exploratory examination. Research has indeed discovered that the relationship in the middle of marijuana and overseeing indignation is clinically critical. Indignation is a protection instrument used to make preparations for enthusiastic results of difficulty filled by trepidation. As expressed, trepidation is an essential capacity controlled by the amygdala which is vigorously empowered by marijuana utilization.
Neurophysical Effects of THC:
Neurological messages in the middle of transmitters and receptors not just control feelings and mental working. It is likewise how the body controls both volitional and nonvolitional working. The cerebellum and the basal ganglia control all substantial development and coordination. These are two of the most copiously fortified zones of the mind that are activated by marijuana. This clarifies marijuana's physiological impact bringing about modified circulatory strain, and a debilitating of the muscles. THC at last influences all neuromotor movement to some degree.
A fascinating phenomena I have seen in pretty much all customers who distinguish marijuana as their medication of decision is the utilization of marijuana smoking before consuming. This is clarified by impacts of marijuana on the "CB-1″ receptor. The CB-1 receptors in the cerebrum are discovered vigorously in the limbic framework, or the nucleolus accumbens, which controls the prize pathways (Martin, 2004). These prize pathways are what influence the hunger and dietary patterns as a feature of the body's characteristic survival nature, making us desire consuming nourishment and compensating us with dopamine when we at long last do.
What is high grade and poor grade?
A current customer of mine clarifies how he initially smoked up to fifteen joints of "poor quality" marijuana every day except inevitably changed to "high grade" when the second rate was beginning to demonstrate incapable. At last, fifteen joints of high review marijuana were getting to be incapable for him also. He frequently neglected to get his "high" from that either. This whole process happened inside five years of the customer's first ever involvement with marijuana. What is high and poor quality marijuana, and why would marijuana start to lose its belongings before long?
The strength of marijuana is measured by the THC content inside. As the business sector in the city gets to be more focused, the intensity in the city gets to be more unadulterated. This has brought on a pattern in continually climbing intensity that reacts to request. One normal joint of marijuana smoked today has the comparable THC strength as ten normal joints of marijuana smoked amid the 1960's.
THC levels will depend for the most part on what piece of the cannabis leaf is being utilized for generation. For example cannabis buds can be between two to nine times more strong than completely created clears out. Hash oil, a manifestation of marijuana grew by refining cannabis gum, can yield more elevated amounts of THC than even high grade buds.
The need to raise the measure of marijuana one smokes, or the need to increase from second rate to high review is referred to clinically as resilience. The mind is productive. As it perceives that neuroreceptors are being invigorated without the neurotransmitters emanating those synthetic flags, the mind creatively brings down its concoction yield so the aggregate levels are over to typical. The smoker won't feel the high any longer as his cerebrum is currently "enduring" the more elevated amounts of chemicals and he or she is again to feeling ordinary. The smoker now raises the dosage to recover the old high and the cycle proceeds. The smoker may discover exchanging up in evaluations powerful for some time. In the end the cerebrum can stop to create the compound out and out, completely depending on the engineered adaptation being ingested.
Why isn't there any withdrawal?
The other side of the resilience procedure is known as "reliance." As the body quits creating its own particular characteristic chemicals, it now needs the marijuana client to keep smoking so as to proceed with the working of chemicals without intrusion. The body is presently requesting the ingestion of THC making it to a great degree hard to stop. Actually, studies demonstrate that marijuana reliance is much more compelling than apparently harder medications like cocaine.
With stopping different medications like stimulants, opioids, or liquor the body responds in negative and here and there seriously risky ways. This is because of the sudden absence of synthetic data entwined with the way that the mind has ceased its own common neurotransmission of those chemicals long back. This is the sensation of withdrawal.
While research has demonstrated practically identical withdrawal responses is marijuana clients as in liquor or different medications , what I have seen ordinarily in my individual association with customers is the evident absence of withdrawal experienced by most marijuana clients. Obviously they encounter longings, however they don't report having the same neurophysical withdrawal response that the other medication clients have. Some marijuana smokers utilize this as their last proof that marijuana "is not a medication" and they ought to accordingly not be enslaved to the same treatment and quest for recuperation endeavors as other medication or liquor abusers.
In all actuality the apparently absence of intense withdrawal is a result of the uniqueness of how the body stores THC. While liquor and different medications are out of a persons framework inside an one to five days, THC can take up to thirty days until it is completely ousted from the body. At the point when THC is ingested by the smoker, it is at first disseminated quickly through the heart, lungs, and mind. THC be that as it may, is in the end changed over into protein and gets to be put away is muscle to fat quotients and muscle. This second methodology of capacity in muscle to fat quotients store is a far slower transform. At the point when the client starts forbearance, fat put away THC starts its abate discharge go into the circulatory system. While the rate of reentry into the body's framework is so moderate it would be impossible deliver any psychoactive impacts, it will help in facilitating the previous smoker through the withdrawal process in a more reasonable and torment free way. The more one smokes the more one stores. The more body mass the smoker has, the more THC can be put away also. Accordingly, in huge customers I have seen it take up to thirty prior days pee screens demonstrate a cleared THC level.
The neurology and neurophysiology of marijuana has been portrayed hitherto. There are numerous physical segments of marijuana smoking too. National Institute on Drug Abuse (2010) reports that marijuana smokers can have a significant number of the same respiratory issues as tobacco smokers including every day hack, mucus creation, more successive intense midsection ailment, and an elevated danger of lung diseases. They quote examination demonstrating confirmation that endless marijuana smokers, who don't smoke tobacco, have more wellbeing issues than non smokers in view of respiratory diseases.
The complete exploration reporting the noteworthy negative biophysical wellbeing impacts of marijuana is not convincing. We do realize that marijuana smoke contains fifty to seventy percent more cancer-causing hydrocarbons than tobacco smoke does. While some exploration demonstrates that marijuana smokers show dysregulated development of epithelial cells in their lung tissue which can prompt growth, different studies have demonstrated no positive relationship at all between marijuana utilization and lung, upper respiratory, or upper digestive tract growths. Maybe the most enlightening certainty of all is that all specialists concur that verifiably there has yet to be a solitary reported demise reported simply as a consequence of marijuana smoking.
Conclusion/ Reflection:
While I am not open to saying something regarding the debate of the authorization of marijuana, all in all of this examination paper there are clear ramifications for me as a professional. Liquor excessively is truly legitimate, as is nicotine, however for the compulsion instructor it is essential to keep keeping an order on the biopsychosocial contemplations with respect to the abuse of any substance. Due to the extensive absence of exact learning in regards to the neurobiological properties connected with accurate cerebrum working, a significant center pushing ahead will turn out to be watching achievement disclosures in the neuroscience of THC and different cannabanoids. The revelations of specific imperativeness for current practice are the pathology of marijuana's association with enthusiastic pharmaceutical toward oneself, resistance, and above all the withdrawal procedure. I have as of now started to use the information of the physical and pharmacological impacts of marijuana communicated to this point with individual achievement and anticipate keep using more distant exploration to do likewise.

Do developers give thought to long-term governance in the communities they build?
It is no secret that developers build communities with one main goal in mind: selling out their inventory.
Most purchasers look at all the obvious things: size and location of the community pool, reliability of the security measures being offered and model types for their desired unit or lot. A potential purchaser might not give much thought prior to the closing about how easy it will be to elect a board, whether the assessments are artificially low, the transparency (or lack thereof) of community operations and whether or not the association's governing documents are properly maintained and easily accessible.
Developers who really want their customers to be talking about how wonderful they are years after transition would be well advised to do the following:
-Create a streamlined governing body. Creating communities with 22 sub-associations and a master association might be easier for the developer to manage fiscally but it is a nightmare of duplication and confusion down the road which is almost impossible to untangle as people identify far too greatly with their "building" as opposed to the community overall.
-Create governing documents with practical realities in mind. Don't make it difficult and/or impossible to amend the governing documents by requiring lenders' consent. Why would you ever subordinate the association's lien rights to lenders? Many developers can secure construction financing without doing so and so can you.
-Be a pioneer and understand that technology is here to stay and often cuts down on expense and time for communities who utilize it thoughtfully. Create an association website and upload the governing documents for inspection convenience. Create reasonable rules and regulations that allow the use of smartphones, scanners and tablets so owners can make their own copies of documents of interest without expending funds and without having the association undertake any labor in that regard.
-Do not create a budget with artificially low amounts to entice purchasers. Your customers certainly want to make an informed purchase decision and you deny them this right when they are unaware of the costs it takes to really provide the common area services you deliver while you are still building homes.
-Take out your calculator when creating your documents to ensure that the percentages of ownership actually add up to 100%. One of the most egregious cases of developer error I've seen was in a large condominium where the percentages of ownership did not add up to 100% and were inconsistent with the surveys attached to the declaration.
-Create a real sense of community from the beginning. Rather than just highlighting your sales office, set up a Welcome Committee that is run by the residents and has nothing to do with your remaining sales. Hold regular meetings and set the tone for inclusion and transparency.

Boyce's Ninth Individual Ivy Title Not Enough As Harvard Takes Team Title
Lisa Boyce won the trophies that go with being the High Point Swimmer of the Meet and Career High Point Award winner. Unfortunately for the Tigers, the big team trophy headed a little up I-95 when the Ivy League women's swimming and diving championships ended.
Boyce won the 100 freestyle and was part of the winning 400 freestyle relay to give her 92 points this weekend, 371 points for her career and nine individual Ivy League championships. Harvard, though, took home the team championship, edging Princeton 1,409-1,384.
For the Tigers, it was a rare year leaving without the championship. Princeton, even with its second-place finish, has still won 11 of the last 15 Ivy titles.
"As reigning Ivy champion, I have to constantly remind myself and the team that when you win as many Ivy championships as we have — 11 in just the last 15 years alone — there is a permanent target on your back," head coach Susan Teeter said. "You have to wear that target with pride and keep your eye on the prize. I love how this team has performed all year with class and integrity, representing Princeton and the program at a level that exceeds expectation. Win, lose or draw, I'll always be proud to coach this team."
Harvard began the day 28 points ahead of the Tigers and then stretched that lead to the point where the Crimson had clinched the title before the 400 free relay - the final event of the night at Brown.
"Harvard had the talent to win this meet on paper all year and we congratulate them on their title," Teeter added. "We knew that the only way to win was to swim fast and dive as well as possible. Our team swam and dove very well and the numbers didn't fall our way. We are so proud of this team and the amazing continued success we have had with this program."
Boyce won her ninth individual title by taking the 100 freestyle in 48.92, which was one half-second better than runner-up Shelby Fortin of Penn, but even with that win, Harvard's lead was 108 points after the event.
After Nikki Larson and Beverly Nguyen went 2-4 in the 200 butterfly, Princeton's Caitlin Chambers put up the sixth-best score in Ivy history to win the three-meter diving. Still, Harvard went 3-4-5 to clinch it.
Boyce shared the High Point Swimmer Award with Yale's Eva Fabian.

I know its not Steven Bardo, because hes even worse. I believe its Seth Greenberg, the old Va Tech coach, but not sure. His priceless moment, "This Niiang kid really isnt thought of as an impact freshman, but wow is he having an impact." Oh really, dumbfu$%?
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC] I always carry a No. 2 pencil in my pocket in case mother******* wanna test me.
Matt Doherty. Grade A moron.

Guess what the D stands for.
This board hates every announcer.
Here's another great one he just pulled from his *****, "Jackson to Jefferson, its like they are signing the constitution or something." Wow, now thats profound.
"When we get back, we will talk about the most talked about word in the English language: Big 12 bubble"
"Fred likes the second half better cause he can call the game better...." What the hell Matt?

I think he does have a point. Freddie has more time to read the defense and call something if he wants with ISU having the ball on the his side of the court.
"Fred Hoiberg with a team called timeout for Iowa State"
Ejim needed to go after that ball with 2 hands.
Doherty sucks at announcing. Maybe he should try his hand at coaching...
A free throw, "Its like a 10 foot putt". I could make about 7 or 8 free throws before I could make a 10 foot putt. What the hell is ESPN doing to us with this *******. My god. OK, Im done, thanks.
Doherty is not terrible, I don't mind him pointing out mistakes and being critical. I can come here for sunshine pumping.
