The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism
Robert E. Buswell, Jr. (UCLA)
and Donald S. Lopez, Jr. (University of Michigan, Ann Arbor)
With more than 5,000 entries totaling over a million words, this is the most comprehensive and authoritative dictionary of Buddhism ever produced in English. It is also the first to cover terms from all of the canonical Buddhist languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pāli, Tibetan, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Unlike reference works that focus on a single Buddhist language or school, The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism bridges the major Buddhist traditions to provide encyclopedic coverage of the most important terms, concepts, texts, authors, deities, schools, monasteries, and geographical sites from across the history of Buddhism. The main entries offer both a brief definition and a substantial short essay on the broader meaning and significance of the term covered. Extensive cross-references allow readers to find related terms and concepts.

To the editor: I am appalled by the scare tactics being used by the opponents of healthcare reform. I would venture to guess many of those who oppose healthcare reform have health insurance provided by their employers or are fortunate enough to afford private insurance.
Millions of people in the U.S. aren't as lucky. I keep hearing opponents insisting that healthcare should be left up to the private sector.
To the editor: Have you been called? Jesus said, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door (to your heart), I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me." Rev. 3:20.
Have you heard His voice? Maybe you are too busy?
To the editor: I am writing on behalf of the staff of Brunswick County Schools who benefited from the numerous staff development sessions at the Virginia Williamson Event Center on the campus of Brunswick Community College this summer.
The event center is an ideal training facility due to its location, comfort and caliber of space. The administration and staff are excellent to work with and are accommodating with the scheduling and preparation for our trainings.
To the editor: As president of the corporation of the Piney Grove Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department for more than four years and a member of the department for 13 years, it has been a tremendous honor and privilege to work with Chief Bork.
As we begin our search for a replacement, we, as a fire department, are reminded how much Randy has done for the department, its members and this community. The best tribute to his leadership and drive to make our department strong and active comes from the members of the department themselves.
I fear for the future of my country when a presidential address advocating hard work, ambitious goals and personal responsibility is considered too controversial and subversive for young ears.
I fear for the message the controversy sends to our youth. The president never deserves your respect if you don't agree with him. Don't honor a call to sacrifice if the commander in chief is of the opposite party. Never listen to anyone you disagree with.
To the editor: After attending a meeting Aug. 18, I stopped at the GoGas in Shallotte around 11:15 p.m. During the process, I placed my wallet on my vehicle and did not realize I had not retrieved it until I was home.
To the editor: Your article last week, "Longevity issues plaque superintendent position," was an excellent history lesson and makes a compelling case for why Katie McGee's contract needs to be renewed and soon.
With the recent notable exception of Dr. McGee, Marion Wise and John Jones, Brunswick County children have significantly suffered from a series of "under-performing" leaders in the past.
To the editor: On a rainy night in 1974, I was at a reception at Mathilde Krim's New York City townhouse for Ted Kennedy. It was raining so hard on the Northeast coast that Kennedy was three hours late. When he arrived, he bounded up the staircase and introduced himself to my wife, Kathleen, and proceeded to apologize for the delay. The meeting was to propose a documentary film about healthcare in America and what we should be doing about it.
To the editor: St James' problem is not the gate. Many lovely communities in Brunswick County are private and gated. One hundred percent of St. James residents live behind their gate, and we on the outside aren't envious of them or concerned with how they regulate their lives. The problem occurs only when they attempt to regulate our lives, first by ETJ in 2005 and now by forced annexation in 2009.
To the editor: On Friday, Aug. 21, our daughter Kristina M. Bermudez and her friend April Degler were in a car wreck on Stanley Road in Supply around 7:30 p.m.
Although shaken up and scared after the impact, the girls immediately called 911 and also called their families. The girls soon realized that Kristina was stuck upside down in the passenger seat and was unable to get loose, but with the help of her friend April, they managed to get the seat belt loose themselves and Kristina was finally free.

College Hockey:Rattray is USCHO Player of the Year
Numbers can only reveal so much. Yes, Jamie Lee Rattray's 66 points, coming from 29 goals and 37 assists in 41 games, was the highest point total in the country.
The most telling of those numbers was the 41 games. That was the highest number of contests in a season for Clarkson, because for the first time in its history, it reached the final game.
Shannon Desrosiers, one of the team's co-head coaches, earlier referred to Rattray as the team's heartbeat, and said, "I think we go as she goes."
Rattray just kept going, right through the NCAA tournament. She had three assists in the team's 3-1 quarterfinal win over Boston College. She had two more helpers as the Golden Knights breezed past Mercyhurst in the semifinal by a 5-1 count. Rattray scored a goal and added an assist in the 5-4 defeat of Minnesota in the championship. For the tournament, she was plus-6.
Over the course of her college career, she rewrote the Clarkson record book with 181 points, 77 goals, and 104 assists.
"I think it's something that you don't really think about while you're playing," she said when I spoke to her back in January. "I never really thought about that kind of stuff when I came in."
Instead, she focused on improving and helping her team win. The defensive side of her game may have been a weak point as a freshman, but it was no longer the case during her senior season.
"It's definitely a part of my game I needed to work on," Rattray said. "I have matured a lot more throughout my four years. Now I find that the defensive game is going to bring more offensively."
As the work honed her defensive game and grew her offensive production, it also upped the most meaningful statistic of all, Clarkson's win total. The Golden Knights won 31 times.
"I think if we just keep playing consistent and playing together and we use our depth on our team, I think we're going to be very successful," she said early in 2014. "I can't wait to see it and see what the road has in store for us."
The road ultimately brought more success than she may have even imagined, including a whole bunch of firsts for her team: first 30-win season, first ECAC Hockey season title, first win in an NCAA tournament game, first NCAA Frozen Four, and first NCAA Championship.
Rattray herself was named the player of the year in the ECAC, the Most Outstanding Player at the 2014 Frozen Four, and the winner of the 2014 Patty Kazmaier Award.
Today, we recognize her as the USCHO player of the year.

Baltimore mayor wants to sell city garages for revenue
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake announced a proposal to sell four city-owned parking garages to generate cash for urgent priorities and infrastructure Monday.
Mayor Rawlings-Blake expects new legislation to sell the parking garages to generate $40 million to $60 million. The proceeds would be used for urgent priorities, such as eliminating blight, without adding to the city's debt.
The announcement came as Rawlings-Blake and members of the City Council will opened the city's first new recreation center built in 10 years. The Morrell Park Community Center features a gymnasium, fitness room and outdoor green space.
It's the first recreation center to be built from the ground since a 2010 taskforce recommended a transformation of the city's aging recreation centers.

Egyptian cop accused of leaking intelligence to the Muslim Brotherhood
An Egyptian police officer in Cairo was accused on Saturday of leaking interim-government intelligence to members of the radical Muslim organization, the Muslim Brotherhood, according to an Israeli police source in Tel Aviv.
According to the Israeli source, Jeff Goldberg, Egypt's Minister of Interior said that a preliminary investigation revealed ties between the unnamed police official and the Muslim Brotherhood, who in the past won numerous elections including the Egyptian presidency.
Current government officials declined to indicate the type of intelligence leaked to the Islamist group. At this point the whereabouts of the suspected leaker are unknown.
"This intelligence leak is not surprising since members of Egyptian police forces, military branches and intelligence agencies may be members of radical Muslim groups or they may be sympathetic to them," said former U.S. military intelligence officer and police official Michael Snopes.
"We must remember that President Mohammed Morsi and the majority of the members of Egypt's parliament were elected by a clear majority of voters in a closely monitored election process. No one should be surprised that they would continue to support Morsi and the Brotherhood," Snopes stated.
The tens of thousands of Islamists from the Brotherhood and the even more radical Salafist network, who are opposed to the military deposing and arresting Morsi, gathered in Cairo on Saturday for their own protest.
The Islamists are calling the military action against Morsi a "coup d'etat" or a "putsch" and say they will hold demonstrations until the legally elected Morsi is reinstated.
About 50 people were killed and more than 1,500 Egyptian civilians were wounded by members of the army or anti-Morsi protesters.
Meanwhile, Ansar Al-Sharia a radical Muslim group in Egypt claims it is gathering weapons and training its members according to an Internet statement on Ahran.org.

Mel Gibson defines evil for Christianity Today's Mark Moring: "taking something that's good and twisting it a little bit."
Well, if you say so, Mel.
A moment of repentence? Not from this Christian braveheart. Rather, Gibson is responding to Christianity Today's request that he explain the much talked about "evil baby" coddled by an androgynous Satan in The Passion.
So what is evil really about? In order to make it clear, says Gibson, "We dubbed in a man's voice… even though the actor [playing Satan] is a woman… That's what evil is about."
It's just that simple.
Or is it? Speculation at Amy Wellborn's Catholic blog, Open Book.

On day three of the Efren Reyes vs Earl Strickland 'Last Showdown'…10-ball was the name of the game at Steinway Billiards in Astoria, NY in NYC. With an even bigger turnout of pool fans than the previous two nights, the match got underway at 8:00pm Eastern time, and was streamed live in a co-production between NYCgrind.com and InsidePoolMag.com via InsidePool.tv.
Click the links below to read our recaps from the first two days:
From the start of day three, Reyes got a hold of the lead in the race to twenty-one, played on Steinway's single ten-foot table. He stayed one step ahead of Strickland at 3-2 and 4-3, and went on to take a 7-4 lead.
"The Magician" found his groove in this match, while he faltered more frequently in the previous nights' matches. Strickland did not seem to have the same spark as in his wins in 9-ball and 8-ball, and gave Reyes more opportunities to put together racks.
Efren Reyes held the lead throughout the the match, and worked his way out of some trouble spots along the way. From 14-6, Reyes continued upward, going to 16-10, 18-12, before putting the match away by a final score of 21-15.
Both Strickland and Reyes put on an entertaining night of pool for the over 400 fans at Steinway Billiards, and those who were tuned in to the live stream from NYCgrind.com and InsidePool Magazine on InsidePool.tv. It was definitely a match that was highly-anticipated by everyone involved.
Stay tuned for our upcoming 'Super News Spotlight Video' from the three-day battle, coming soon.
After the challenge match completed, the raffle was drawn for the Predator IKON cue that was donated to benefit the Long Island City Boys Gymnastics Team, which Tony Robles' son Jonathan is a member of. Hundreds of tickets were sold for the raffle of the cue, which was signed by pros including Efren Reyes, Francisco Bustamante, Earl Strickland, Warren Kiamco, Mike Dechaine, Tony Robles, Jayson Shaw, and others. The winner of the cue would be local regular Steinway player Glenn Ramsey. Congratulations, Glenn!

John Mayer Dates Self, Breaks Up With Self After Running Out Of Women
By Suri Booze
BOZEMAN – The original womanizer is running out of options after dating every living woman on Earth and now exhausting the possibility of dating himself.
"John has broken up with himself," his manager said in a statement. "We ask that you please respect his privacy at this difficult time."
The whirlwind relationship began shortly after Mayer's split with singer Katy Perry, but not before flings with Dina Lohan, Daryl Hannah and a potato he mistook for Suri Cruise.
Friends said that the relationship was "getting pretty serious" and that Mayer would often take whole days off from recording to spend "us time" with himself, only to return exhausted and hypertrophied in the right forearm.
Things ended while Mayer was on vacation with himself in Jamaica. First, he couldn't agree on where to have dinner. The situation exploded when John caught himself fucking a maid.
What went wrong? "John is a picky guy," stated ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift. "I'm not surprised he couldn't agree with himself. He should put all of this emotion into songwriting."
"I worry there's nobody left for him to settle down with," said his mother. "Even that Jessica Simpson is married now."

When to transition from Breast to Cows milk
My daughter is 8 1/2 months old and still nursing. I pump in the day and nurse on demand when we're together, but my milk supply is depleting, and it's frustrating to both of us. I want to nurse as long as she wants to, but I'm afraid she isn't getting enough milk. Of course, she's eating babyfood too, so she's not starving, so that's not a concern. It's still too early to introduce cow milk, and I don't know anything about formula. What should I do? How can I ensure that she's getting the nutrients and vitamins she needs to stay healthy? Is it really a bad idea to introduce cows milk just 3 1/2 months early?

My ped. told me that I could start giving my daughter cow's milk at 6 months. She said to just limit it to 4-6 oz a day. But, by 10 months she told me that I could give her 16 oz a day. If you are still wanting to nurse, work at keeping your milk supply up. Supplementing with anythng will continue to affect your supply. Good luck.posted 09/23/2007 by KristiStarr
In the medical field I do not believe there is much controversy, children under 12 months should not have unprocessed cows milk. The reason being infants are not able to digest all the proteins in unprocessed cows milk. This causes inflammation in their gut and microscopic bleeding. This is a common cause of anemia or low blood count in infants. Low blood count in infants can lead to more infections, harder to fight infections, decreased IQ, etc. Often people choose cows milk over formula in infancy because it is lower cost but formula is processed so that infants can effectively digest it. Just think, for those of you that want to be more "natural", drinking the milk of another animal really isn't so natural, so don't feel bad if you need to supplement with formula. At least you know that you are giving your infant something that can be digested and not proven harmful to you baby.posted 07/27/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
It is still to early to give her cows milk. But what I do is make sure that I stay hydrated and specially when I started working out again I noticed that my supply was depleting but I just made sure that I would drink plenty of water and fluids and in no time it was all back to normal. But I also have oatmeal in the mornings and before bed time and it seems to help(this was my grandmother's idea I did this with all four of my kids and it may be coinsidence but it has always seem to work) hope it helps it!!!posted 10/11/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I had a similar problem when my LO was about 10 mos. I found out I was pregnant again and my milk supply decreased significantly so I asked my ped if I should introduce cow's milk or formula. She recommended formula, but he refuses to drink it! So I started adding an ounce of cow's milk to his cereal in the mornings to see if he would have a reaction. Then I also started mixing it with breast milk and giving it to him in his cup to drink. He's now 11 1/2 months and all seems fine, but he's still breastfeeding at least 2-3x day for his nutrients. I would talk to your ped to see what he/she recommends because mine said milk doesn't have many of the nutrients your baby needs at this age so perhaps try to increase your milk supply (fenugreek has worked for me in the past) or introduce formula for at least one or two feedings. Good luck!posted 06/17/2010 by 1munchkinmama
I know that most pediatricians recommend waiting till 12 months to switch to cow's milk, but I am in a similar boat as you. My supply has just gone down and down (mainly because I cannot pump enough at work) so we have started mixing whole milk and breast milk half and half while our 11 month old is in day care and then she nurses while at home with me. It has worked for us, and I figure as long as she is getting mostly breast milk, supplimenting with cow's milk will only ease the full transition later.posted 11/28/2007 by yanahhh
for those that want to complain about cows milk not being natural, almost all the formulas out there excepting the soy ones are made from a cows milk base and then have added nutrition to simulate breast milk. Formula is better than cows milk alone, of course, its just not more "natural" because it also comes from cow milk. I was never able to breastfeed, I could barely produce milk, even with pumping and jumping through hoops and hydrating until I float. I pumped what little I could for the few months my small supply lasted. We had no choice but to use formula from day 1 as it was never enough to sustain him. You are lucky if you have good supplies and have the luxury of breastfeeding. Some of us have no choice. Formula is expensive and my son just turned 1 this week so I am looking forward to but nervous about transitioning to whole milk but I do have concerns about it as opposed to formula as far as nutrition. I think if he eats plenty of solids and finger foods, it will be fine.posted 02/04/2011 by pharasalia
I am trying to wean right now and having the struggle with getting him to eat formula. He doesnt seem to like the taste of it in comparison to water or breastmilk. I know he needs the liquids and nutrients so I am not sure whether to start him on homo milk so he drinks something or to keep trying on the formula... he is 9 months so he is a bit early for milk according to most sources.posted 10/05/2009 by thuson
You can supplement with formula but can also introduce watered-down juice (non-citrus) if you're just worried she isn't getting enough fluids. I, too, really had to try to keep my supply up in the last few months and have just weaned now.posted 02/25/2011 by a BabyCenter Member
I was told I could start mixing at 9 months by his doctor.posted 07/29/2014 by tcain423
My milk supply plummeted at 9 1/2 months, so much so that I couldn't pump enough at work, though I still had plenty when she was actually nursing. I spent a few weeks stressing out, cutting breastmilk with water because I didn't want her to have formula. I'm good friends with an organic farmer, so we started her on bartered raw milk. She greedily sucked down the first bottle without a problem, and she' been going strong ever since. I know it's controversial, but I believe it's easier to digest than pasteurized, homogenized milk, and she's thrived on it. She's now just over a year, and I still nurse 3-5 times per day, but the raw milk has been a lifesaver.posted 06/20/2010 by a BabyCenter Member

After tournament director Chuck Souzer began conducting a series of Prove It Scratch Challenge event, no bowler was able to become a two-time champion. And then, along came Donny Bartlett.
The 26-year-old Sarasota righthander has become the dominant Prove It bowler recently, and when he won again on Sunday (May 18) at AMF Venice Lanes, it was his second straight victory and third in the last four tournaments.
In his most-recent triumph, Bartlett led from start to finish in defeating a relatively small field of 19 entrants, who were competing on a 41-foot Scorpion pattern, which according to Souzer, "stung players at the wrong time."
"I really can't explain my recent string of successes," said Bartlett, who has been bowling since age 4, starting in his home town of Titusville (in Brevard County), and he was on the bowling team at Santa Fe College in Gainesville. "I recently got a new Storm Roto Grip (ball) drilled by Saul Insignares, and he has been working with my equipment, and a little bit with my physical game."
Bartlett moved to Sarasota in the middle of the 2012-2013 season, and he carried a 220 average for about a half-season in both Titusville and Sarasota.
After the five-game qualifying round, Bartlett set the pace with a 1,099 pinfall, while fellow Sarasotan Jesse Hawver -- a past Prove It champion -- was in the No. 2 position with 1,061. Also making the cut to match play were John Hough of Naples with 1,002 and James McCleland of Venice with 991.
In the Round of 4 -- with 30 "bonus pins" awarded for each match-play win -- McCleland outscored Bartlett 254-227, while Hough dispatched Hawver 244-178.
Entering the decisive final game, Bartlett held the advantage with a net total of 1,326, compared to Hough's 1,276, meaning that Hough needed to prevail by at least 21 pins to emerge victorious.
Bartlett opened the final rolloff with five consecutive strikes and seemed on his way to an easy win, even though Hough was clean through the first five frames. However, Bartlett suffered a sixth-frame split and Hough was able to string four strikes together before suffering a late split, enabling Bartlett to hold on for a 208-202 decision.
The champion pocketed the winner's check of $410, while Hough earned the second-place prize of $205.
The next Prove It tournament will be on June 22 at AMF Gulf Gate, and Souzer intends to utilize a 37-foot PBA Viper pattern. To visit the Prove It Challenge Web site, click here.

I have so much work to do, I am way behind on everything, and I have a wedding to attend in Jersey in a few weeks, and worldcon after that... and if truth be told, San Diego has gotten overwhelming in recent years. There are always good times catching up with friends, and hanging with the cast, but it's not as if I can walk the floor anymore and look for old comic books, the way I once did.

Even so... even so... it does make me a little sad, not being there.

Anyway, those of you who are there, be sure and catch THE EXPANSE premiere. I wish I could. Everything I've seen suggests that it will be a terrific show. The books were certainly great. Say hi to Daniel and Ty for me.

You might also visit the Random House booth to buy a calendar, and drop by the Tor/ Macmillan booth to buy a stack of books and show your support. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:grrm:381121 More From Comicon 2014-08-29T01:53:55Z 2014-09-03T23:23:03Z Yadda yadda... here's more for those of you who could not be at Comicon.

This was a special fan Q&A session sponsored by Courtyard Marriott. Great fun.

<lj-embed id="463" /> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:grrm:378521 Comicon Is Coming 2014-07-21T16:43:35Z 2014-08-29T19:54:49Z It seems like I just got back from France and Switzerland... maybe because I just did... and now San Diego Comicon is on top of us.

I'll be there for the whole weekend, doing promotion for HBO, Bantam Spectra, and my various other publishers. Flying in Wednesday, departing on the following Monday, so if you're going to comicon, you should have plenty of chances to see me, hear me, and get me to scrawl illegibly on your book, graphic novel, Blu-Rays, or body parts.

My schedule:

Wednesday evening, 6pm to 7pm, I will be doing a signing at the AVATAR PRESS booth, autographing copies of the SKIN TRADE graphic novel and IN THE HOUSE OF THE WORM comic. (Only those, please. There will be other places and times to get my other stuff signined).

Thursday, 2:30 to 3:30, I will be appearing in the main autograph area (the Sails) at Table 3, with DONATO GIANCOLA. The two of us will be signing copies of the 2015 Ice & Fire calendar, which will be making its debut at the convention.

Thursday, 4:00 to 5:00 pm, you can catch me in the Indigo Room, where I'll be joining William Christensen of Avatar to talk about THE SKIN TRADE and IN THE HOUSE OF THE WORM. (No signing here, this is just a talk).

Friday, we have the GAME OF THRONES panel in Hall H. I'll be there, with showrunners David Benioff and Dan Weiss and various members of our cast. This year CRAIG FERGUSON will be moderating. Hall H seats 7,000 people... but of course 150,000 people attend comicon, so if you want to see the panel, best get in line... ah... now. Afterward I will join the cast for interviews and a poster signing and more interviews.

Saturday, 11:00 am to 12 noon, I return to the Sails for a Random House autograph session. This time I will be at Table 7. This is the time and place to get your books signed. Copies will be on sale in the autograph area, if you don't want to drag your old ones to San Diego.

Saturday, 4:15 pm to 5:15 pm, I'll be in Room 6A for a panel on epic fantasy, part of an all-star lineup of panelists with Patrick Rothfuss, Joe Abercrombie, and others.

Sunday, 12:30 to 1:30, back to the floor for another signing. This time I will be signing copies of the HEDGE KNIGHT and SWORN SWORD graphic novels at the ComiXology booth, on behalf of Jet City Comics.

Sunday, 2:00pm to 4:00pm, I will be judging a costume contest sponsored by Courtyard Marriott.

Monday I go home.

Given the sheer numbers of people in San Diego for comicon, I regret to say that I will sign autographs ONLY at the designated signings. There are, you will note, five of them, which means I'll be scrawling my name for five hours at various points through the weekend. That's about all I can manage. So if you should happen to see me walking the floor, riding a pedicab through the GasLamp, having a drink or eating my dinner, feel free to smile or wave or say hi, but PLEASE do not ask me to sign anything. I can only do so much, and I do need some time just to enjoy the con and chill with friends.

Thanks.

See you in San Diego. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:grrm:328931 In Memoriam 2013-07-25T15:45:32Z 2013-07-29T20:38:03Z For those of you who were not able to come to San Diego for Comicon... or get into Hall H for the GAME OF THRONES panel... here's the video that kicked off the proceedings, a tribute to all those we have loved (or not) and lost during the first three seasons of the show.

<lj-embed id="354" />

Seen all together like that, it does make me seem rather a bloody bastard, doesn't it?

In my own (feeble) defense, however, let me point out that Irri, Rakharo, the Thirteen of Qarth, Xaro Xhoan Daxos, Mago (not seen in the video), and Pyat Pree are all still alive and well (more or less) in the books as of the end of A DANCE WITH DRAGONS. Like the guys in Spinal Tap, David and Dan do like to turn things up to 11.

Robb's wife is alive in the novels too, but Jeyne Westerling is an entirely different person than Talisa Maegyr with an entirely different fate. Ros does not exist in the books, but of the characters she replaced, Kyra is dead, but Chataya and Alayaya are still around.

As to where we go from here... season four is coming, and no one is safe on GAME OF THRONES.

Not even those who you think might be safe for another book or two, from reading my novels.

Paolo's Potters preview
by Stuart Vose
Boss on fans, focus and 'confident' Stoke.
Paolo Di Canio says the red and white army can roar Sunderland over the line under the floodlights on Monday night.
The Black Cats take on Stoke City and a victory would see them move level with the Potters on 40 points.
Sunderland will be without the suspended Stephane Sessegnon and injured top scorer Steven Fletcher, but Di Canio is far from deterred and says the crowd can be a big help.
"We are capable of scoring goals with the players we have, in a different manner and with different qualities," he explained.
"The fact we are playing at home is something really important. We saw the difference at Villa Park – the atmosphere probably helped a lot with the players.
"They were there with the second balls, on the rebounds and gave everything to try to put us in difficulty, which they did."
Meanwhile, opponents Stoke have pulled themselves away from the relegation places with back-to-back victories against QPR and Norwich.
Di Canio believes Tony Pulis' side will have a new-found confidence and claims their recent points haul has left them all but safe.
"Stoke will be confident. They have had two good results, like us in some ways – two wins in a row, six points after a bad run.
"They are already in a good position, to be honest, with 40 points and a good goal difference.
"But we have to think about us."

Book synopsis
The idea for this book arose from presentations delivered at two conferences in Tartu and in Tallinn in Estonia. These conferences brought together many professionals and researchers working in early education, many from Europe, and also Australia and the USA. This book, written by 37 authors, consists of chapters about the development of early childhood education, children's developing skills and the early childhood curriculum, and about the role of early childhood teachers. Further topics are the role of parents in early childhood education, and the work with children with special needs in the preschool. The book will be of interest to those interested in early childhood practice and policy.

"Spring Haiku" is the second book in the Haiku Seasons following "Winter Haiku." A Haiku is a short poem that is said " to capture the essence of a brief , transient moment in one's life and the universe. It stems from a profound appreciation of and closeness to nature and often referred to "wabi-sabi" or recognition that beauty can be found informally, even in the depths of poverty". It is also inspired by another term "furabo" which indicates "a person who roams about, unattached, carried like a slender piece of cloth fluttering in the wind."

In a clearing in the coastal scrubland by Crystal Cove, Joanne Park stopped the six blind teenagers and dozen or so adults who had joined her for a short hike.
"Can you hear the birds?" Park asked.
Most of the adults couldn't.
Over the din of the highway and the crashing waves, picking out birdcalls seemed like an impossible task. But all six of the teenagers nodded instantly, smiling at the subtle chirps and whistles that were for the moment, beyond the adults' grasp.
"That was fast," said Park, an educational program coordinator for the Crystal Cove Alliance.
For the Braille Institute of Orange County, where the six are summer campers, Thursday's excursion was meant to show the teenagers how to navigate unfamiliar surfaces.
Before they embarked on the hour-long hike, the students got a crash course in birding from David Pryor, a senior environmental scientist for California State Parks.
"The best birders are the best listeners," Pryor said. "And that's what makes you so valuable to us."
In a small clearing about halfway through the loop, Pryor directed the six students to stop again, and identify the number of species they could hear in three minutes. One of the adults in the group said he could only hear two – the steady staccato of a sparrow's chirp and the hollow whistle of a dove.
But the Braille Institute kids had him beat. Their estimates came rolling in: Ten. Five. Four. Eight. Ten.
Pryor said he heard around eight species.
"But I've been training myself to do this for 20, 30 years," Pryor said, sounding genuinely amazed. "You kids have only had minutes."
The kids were hiking along the newly opened Environmental Study Loop in Crystal Cove, which is Americans with Disabilities Act-compliant and just a half-mile long. But within that span, the surfaces vary considerably, ranging from gravel to dirt to dry leaves.
Getting used to surface changes is an important (and hard-won) skill for the visually impaired, Braille Institute camp counselor Katie Brazer says.
"Feel the crunchiness beneath your feet?" Park asked the kids who had stepped on the leaves. They looked a little spooked.
"Yeah," said camper Veronica Sanchez, 18, sounding nervous. "What does it mean?"
"It just means you have to be careful," Park said. "Keep your hand on the rope and you'll be safe."
Sanchez did as she was told and made it – independently – to another section of the trail, avoiding a small drop-off at the trail's edge.
"See?" Sanchez said to another camper, a big smile on her face. "I was careful."
At the end of the hike, campers Daphne Faleafaga said the hike made her mindful of bird song. Faleafaga lives in Long Beach, where she says birds are only noticeable in the mornings.
"Now, when I'm in a parking lot or the sidewalk and I hear a bird, I'll take note of its sound," Faleafaga said. "Whereas before, I'd tune it out."
All six campers said the trail had been less difficult than they had anticipated.
"Once you got used to it, it wasn't that bad at all," said Manuel Wibowo, expressing the group's overall sentiment.

No Spin has been discontinued
No Spin was developed to help you prevent your external hard drives from spinning down and going to sleep when you don't want them to.
Simply add the volumes you wish to no longer spin down, then enter in an "interval" (for instance... if your drives are set to spin down after 60 seconds of inactivity, enter in an interval of 59). The lower your "interval" number, the less chance there is of your drive spinning down.
What's New
Version 3.4:
- No Longer works on your internal drive unless you add it to the list.
- Mac OS X 10.4 or later,
- external hard drive.

Frito-Lay Has Gone Insane
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration:
On January 24, 2007, the FDA received a notification from Frito-Lay, Inc. (Frito-Lay) submitted pursuant to Section 403(r)(3)(C) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 343(r)(3)(C)) and regarding a health claim for the relationship between dietary substitution of saturated fat with unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) and reduced risk of heart disease (the January 24 notification). The 120-day period from the date of submission of the Frito-Lay notification is May 24, 2007. Therefore, after this date, manufacturers may use the claim specified in the notification, as modified by the notifier in a letter to FDA dated May 11, 2007 (The May 11 letter), on the label and in labeling of any food product that meets the eligibility criteria described below, unless or until FDA or a court acts to prohibit the claim.(via Diet-Blog)
The following statements from the 1989 NAS report titled Diet and Health: Implications for Reducing Chronic Disease Risk listed in the January 24 notification are considered authoritative statements.
"Clinical and animal studies provide firm evidence that omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids when substituted for saturated fatty acids result in a lowering of serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol and usually also some lowering of HDL cholesterol levels."The claim language proposed by Frito-Lay was modified in the May 11 letter to read as follows:
"Clinical studies indicate that substitution of monounsaturated for saturated fatty acids results in a reduction of serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol without a reduction in HDL cholesterol."
"Replacing saturated fat with similar amounts of unsaturated fats may reduce the risk of heart disease. To achieve this benefit, total daily calories should not increase."

The second "prayer death" of eight-month-old Brandon Schaible, who died from treatable pneumonia because his parents tried to cure him with prayer instead of medicine, has resulted in a prison sentence for the child's parents according to a Feb. 19, 2014, The Washington Post report. In 2009, Brandon's brother Kent had died at the age of two when his parents also used prayer instead of medicine.
On Wednesday, the parents of Brandon and Kent were sentenced to "3½ to seven years in prison." Herbert Schaible, the children's 45-year-old father, and Catherine Schaible, the children's 44-year-old mother, pleaded no contest to third-degree murder in Brandon's death.
The second "prayer death" of Brandon could have been prevented. The Schaibles are third-generation members of an insular Pentecostal community, the First Century Gospel Church in northeast Philadelphia. They have seven surviving children and are part of a community.
"It was so foreseeable to me that this was going to happen," said Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore, who prosecuted the death of both Kent and Brandon. "Everybody in the system failed these children."
After Kent's death in 2009, a jury convicted his parents of involuntary manslaughter, and they were sentenced to 10 years of probation. Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore and public defender Mythri Jayaraman had asked the judge to have the family supervised by a Department of Human Services caseworker, but instead the judge assigned them to a probation officer who is not trained to monitor the welfare of a child.
Last year, Brandon's father said, "we believe in divine healing, that Jesus shed blood for our healing and that he died on the cross to break the devil's power."
Pastor Nelson Clark blames the parent's failure to cure their son's pneumonia with prayer on the parents' "spiritual lack."
Brandon's mom, Catherine Schaible, told the judge on Wednesday that she is taking responsibility for the death of her son. "My religious beliefs are that you should pray, and not have to use medicine. But because it is against the law, then whatever sentence you give me, I will accept."
Judge Benjamin Lerner did not accept the defense attorney's argument that the parent's religious beliefs "clashed" with the law. "April of 2013 wasn't Brandon's time to die," he commented and mentioned the violence committed throughout human history in the name of religion. "You've killed two of your children. ... Not God. Not your church. Not religious devotion. You."
The second "prayer death" of eight-month-old Brandon, which could have been prevented if his parents would have provided him with medical care, is a reminder that "about a dozen U.S. children die in faith-healing cases each year."

text: In the Project Horizon report, Wernher von Braun, then with the Army Ballistic Missile Agency, advanced a theory that he had conceived years earlier for using a booster's spent stage as a space station's basic structure. This later evolved into the "wet stage" concept for the Skylab Program. Project Horizon envisioned moving quickly to an early improved station constructed from 22 upper stage shells. Prior to any expansion of lunar outpost operations, sufficient tankage would have been placed in orbit to permit construction of two or three such stations. The orbital station crew strength was approximately ten; however, the crew would be rotated every several months.

The first inequality is a consequence of the fact that if $k$ is a positive integer, then $1+k \le 2^k$. Just take $k=\text{ord}_p(n)$.
If you wanted to, you could prove that $1+k\le 2^k$ by induction on $k$. But there is no need, the result is clear. At $k=1$ we have equality, but then $2^k$ grows much faster than $1+k$.
For the second inequality, take the logarithm of both sides. It is cleanest to use logarithms to the base $2$. So we want to prove that $$\text{ord}_p(n) \le \frac{\text{ord}_p(n)}{x}\log_2(p).$$ Since $p>2^x$, we have $\log_2(p)>x$, and the result follows.

The No. 8 Pepperdine women's soccer team has been unbeatable so far this season.
The Waves set a new unbeaten streak record of 14 games after defeating San Diego 1-0 on Thursday in the Waves West Coast Conference season opener at Tari Frahm Rokus Field in Malibu.
Pepperdine senior forward Laura Cole delivered a shot to the lower, left corner in the 68th minute of play after receiving a pass from midfielder Michelle Manning. Cole, who led the Waves in scoring in 2010, now has four goals this season.
The win, which came after a 10-day break for the Waves, marks the first time that the Waves have won their season-opener since 2005, and also snaps a three-game losing streak to San Diego.
Now at 9-0-4, Pepperdine is one of only eight Division I women's soccer teams that are still undefeated this season.
And, the Waves schedule hasn't been a cakewalk, either. Pepperdine has won some key nonconference matches, defeating Arizona 2-0, Cal 2-1, Michigan 3-0, and No. 18 Illinois 4-2. The Waves also managed to tie LSU 1-1, and more impressively, then #4 UCLA 1-1.
Ranked eighth in the NSCAA poll for the third straight week, Pepperdine is ranked 12th in the Soccer Times poll, and 17th in the Soccer America poll.
Experience may be a big reason for the team's success, as the Waves returned nine of 11 starters from last season.
Head coach Tim Ward told pepperdinesports.com that he thinks his squad is deep with talent, as well.
"We have amazing depth," Ward said. "It has been maybe five years since we have had this kind of depth and athleticism across the board. We are not short on athleticism, depth or industriousness."
The Waves have already scored 27 goals this season, from 10 different players. Last year the team netted 26 goals in the entire season.
Junior forward Anisa Guajardo was named one of the WCC September Players of the Month and she leads the Waves and the conference in scoring with eight goals. Freshman forward Lynn Williamshas seven assists to lead the team and the WCC.
Pepperdine's experience and depth will be tested today as the Waves take on Brigham Young University in the first-ever matchup between these two teams.
BYU, the WCC's newest member, made a strong statement by defeating Portland 2-1 on Thursday, breaking the Pilots 28-game unbeaten streak in the WCC.
The game is scheduled for 12 p.m. PT and will be broadcast on BYUtv.

Once in a while I stumble across an archival image which really catches my imagination. I never know where or when I will come across these evocative images. Equally, there is not a standard scene or subject matter which I find intriguing. If there is a pattern, the images often show something unexpected or a strange juxtaposition of ideas. What I enjoy the most is an archival image that makes me stop and ask myself "what in the world is happening?"
Today's image is an excellent example of the "what in the world is happening" phenomenon. Taken at face value this is a simple image of a child dancing with a dog on the deck of a ship while the Captain holds his stomach with laughter. Hmm, even trying to simply explain this image makes me wonder. What is the context for this image. Why are the boy (I assume) and the dog dancing? Why are they dancing on a ship? Is this the child of the captain and the ship's dog? Do poodles prefer a waltz or a tango? I assume from the look of mirth on the Captain's face that this was a spontaneous moment rather than a posed photograph. There is also something about the industrial setting on the deck of a ship which makes this intimate image very appealing.
This photograph, part of the Annapolis Heritage Society's archival collection, was taken by Charlotte Perkins circa 1900. From the look of the wharf beside the ship, I am guessing that the photograph was taken at the Annapolis Royal Railway Wharf at low tide.
All for now,

Cheney's Katie McGourin battles Pullman's Maddi Cillay for a rebound Saturday night.
The Cheney girls basketball team lost their first Great Northern League games of the 2014 season, 56-35 Friday night at East Valley and a close 51-41 setback Saturday against Pullman in the league-season home opener. For head coach Shannon Root, the second game was the most disappointing.
"I felt like it was a game we should've won, but not quite," she said.
Cheney led twice in the opening moments against the Greyhounds, 4-2 and 6-4, but a 7-0 Pullman run helped them establish a lead the Lady Hawks couldn't quite overcome. Katie McGourin's offensive put-back pulled Cheney within two at 11-9...

This is the most effective silver product I have ever used. It is made by Natural Immunogenics Corp. who also manufacture the Sovereign Silver products. These are 10ppm, while this Argentyn 23 product is concentrated at 23ppm. This product literally saved my life. After an exhausting relocation of our home, my immune system became severely compromised from all the stress, I suddenly became terribly sick with pneumonia, this from an infection with mycoplasma, while a lingering tooth infection suddenly complicated matters. My doctor couldnt figure it out, I was shifted from one antibiotic to the next, all the while becoming worse and worse, since I had two different types of infections in the body and the available antibiotics could not deal with both at one time. (I should mention I was also on a ton of different immune enhancing supplements, but I wasnt using anything that was directly killing the pathogens) After almost 3 weeks, with a very high fever still running and no end in sight, I was truly desperate, I purchased 4 bottles and decided to call the manufacturer for personal directions, since I was so terribly ill. Because of my extreme condition, I was advised to use 5-10ml each waking hour, to be held sublingually under the tongue for at least 5 min. As soon as I started, I could actually feel this stuff going to work and killing the infections, fever finally started to come down and after some 3 days my temp became normal. The mycoplasma was wiped out. I went to the dentist and had the problem fixed. This stuff has saved my life, so 5 stars is simply not enough...I give this product my highest rating and I recommend this to everyone with a serious infection. (Note. Today I would use this with an ultrasonic nebulizer for even faster absorption and results, especially with lung infections)

Monster Squat is my little way to give back to the sport of powerlifting. I hope to share my years of experience in the sport, especially my success in the squat.
If you don't know who I am, you can go to the About Me page to read more about me or to my Lifting Profile to see my accomplishments.
I just finished the Members Area of the site, which consists of a Q & A section and access to the online version of my books. I plan on building the area to include even more content in the months to come.
There are two membership levels currently:
The Basic Membership is FREE and gives you access to the Member's Q & A section, which is a question and answer board for members to share their knowledge, as well as special posts that only members can read.
The Monster Membership, for a small one time fee, gives you access to everything the Basic gives plus access to special pages for monster members only, on training and other topics. On top of that the Monster Membership give you access to the online versions of both my books "Monster Squat: A Step By Step Guide to a Bigger Squat!" and "From Gym Lifter to Competitive Powerlifter: The Beginner's Guide to Competitive Powerlifting!" The online books are more than worth the small one time fee to join.
If you join today, you will get a FREE PDF copy of Squat Like A Powerlifter: The Beginner's Guide to The Perfect Squat, (Chapter 1 of Monster Squat), my e-book dedicated to teaching squat form!
If you need more one-on-one customized coaching, I plan on offering virtual training consultations via Email, Texts, Skype, Facetime, or Google Hangouts. Contact me for more information.

You don't need to travel overseas or across the nation to find a fashion school that is a perfect fit for you. California has hundreds of colleges, universities, and vocational schools that are dedicated to providing you with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in the fashion industry. It's in your best interest to seek out an education closer to home, right here in California.
California Fashion Schools Cost Less
Student housing in locations like Paris or New York is extremely expensive. Many students looking to study abroad are placed on long waiting lists for economical student housing. Unless you have the financial means, transportation costs are another huge consideration for you. Traveling back home for the holidays, summers, or special occasions adds up quick.
California fashion schools will cost you far less in tuition, housing, and travel. Romanticizing the idea of studying fashion abroad will often only lead to an expensive education that was harder to obtain than it had to be.
Fashion Schools in California are Major Players in the Fashion IndustryMake no mistake, California is a major world fashion hub! In fact, there are more fashion-related jobs available in California than any other state in the nation. From the red-carpet in Hollywood to the ports of San Fransisco, California is a world fashion center.
Fashion merchandisers and textile buyers import thousands of shipments of raw textiles, clothing, and material from around the world each and every year. A large majority of these shipments enter through port cities like San Fransisco and Los Angeles. Exotic fabrics and textiles from Asia, high-quality threading materials, production equipment, and more. All of these fashion-related imports require people with the knowledge, skill, and education you seek to bring the latest fashions to the marketplace.
Walking the streets of Hollywood, you'll find the latest in fashion design and breaking trends in style. The glam and glitz of Hollywood requires those with the skills to make it happen. What better place to learn about the industry that surrounds you? Fashion schools in California give you an edge in the industry that schools abroad cannot.
Fashion Education and the Latest TechnologyCalifornia is already known as the technology capitol of the United States (and world). Fashion schools in California often receive the latest in computer equipment and software at very low cost from the major players in Silicone Valley. California fashion schools are no different.
Fashion and technology go hand-in-hand. For years, the fashion industry has been leveraging advancements in technology to improve upon the existing methods and standards of design. Chances are, if you are drafting your latest designs using a CAD program or the like, you're going to want to stay current with technology. California continues to nurture a culture of technological advancement.
California fashion schools build upon the state's existing culture of commitment to technology, and ensure that your education stays at the forefront of fashion industry trends.
Diverse Cultural Influences in FashionCalifornia is a culturally diverse state with a population comprised of peoples from all over the world. Other fashion centers around the world would be hard-pressed to tout the vast cultural diversity that is represented throughout much of California.
The multicultural influence on fashion can be seen is the wide-array of styles that are worn throughout much of the state. Latin, Asian, and European styles are just some of the many major cultural fashion influences that are currently in-play in this large state.
California Fashion School AdvantageIt's no secret that California is a trend-setting state. From politics to fashion, California is seen as a leader in new conceptualizations and free-thinking. In an educational environment that promotes freethinking, your creativity and design skills will flourish.
The fashion industry needs your creativity to feed the ever-evolving world of fashion. Styles come and go very quickly in our fast-paced world. The fashion industry needs people who can lead, people who have the creative talent and vision to fuel the next high trend in fashion. Stale, uncreative designs do not last long in the marketplace. An environment where new vision and conceptualizations are nurtured produces top quality fashion designers. Fashion schools in California are well-adapted to promoting your creativity and vision.
Fashion Schools in California Have More to OfferThere are far more benefits available to you by attending one of the many excellent fashion schools in California. Why go through the hassle of attending a fashion school abroad when you have access to an excellent education right here? California has everything you need to prepare you for a career in the fashion industry. Why spend more money to receive a sub-par or equal education?
Many students who have started their fashion education at a famed school abroad have come back to the United States to study in California. The common complaint that many of these students have had is that many of the foreign fashion schools are too rigid in their educational process; they offer too little creative freedom for designers with vision. These students have found the freedom and creative-drive that they were looking for in California fashion schools.

The topic of controversy since the launch of the Xbox One has been resolution and frame rate. Most of the games are only running at 900p resolution, while the PlayStation 4 sees most of its content run at 1080p. While it was declared that the upcoming title Wolfenstein: The New Order will run at 1080p/60fps on the PS4, nothing had been stated about the Xbox One version. According to OnlySP, the game will indeed run at 1080p/60fps on the Xbox One. The journalist reached out to Microsoft, and a representative confirmed the information. This is a good bit of news for a system that has suffered early in the mind of gamers
At E3 2013, Bethesda had Wolfenstein running on Xbox 360's at the time. The fact that the Xbox 360 version looked spectacular at ran at 60fps can only bode well for the finished product for the next generation version. The Microsoft representative, however, might have stated that this was the case now, but that could be subject to change. The New Order has a while before it hits shelves, and depending on optimization on the next generation systems, early indications and personal experience should show that these statistics should be met in the end.
Stay tuned for more information on Wolfenstein: The New Order. For all of our latest exclusives, previews, reviews, and features, follow us on Twitter and like us on Facebook. You can also follow my personal Twitter HERE.
