Nov. 29, 2013
LINCOLN, Neb. -- The challenge was issued on Black Friday in 2012. In University of Iowa football terms, it was a dim moment that Nov. 23 day as the Hawkeyes limped out of Kinnick Stadium with a 13-7 loss to Nebraska and a record of 4-8.
"This is significant," UI linebackers coach LeVar Woods said, 371 days later. "A year ago they challenged themselves and we challenged them to move forward."
They is in reference to the entire Hawkeye team, but specifically the senior linebackers. They are the best group of linebackers assistant Jim Reid has been around in 41 years of coaching. They combined for 28 tackles, seven tackles for loss, three pass breakups, three quarterback hurries, two sacks, two interceptions, and two forced fumbles on a sunnier Black Friday 2013, as the Hawkeyes thumped an eight-win Nebraska team on its home turf by three touchdowns.
They helped the UI secure second place in the Big Ten Conference Legends Division with a record of 8-4 overall, 5-3 in the league.
"Their effort (at Nebraska) was exactly the same as their effort every single game this year and more importantly, every single practice this year from spring practice on," Reid said. "I'm not sure I have ever been around a more intense, hard-working, focused group as I have been around in James (Morris), Anthony (Hitchens), and Chris (Kirksey). They are remarkable guys."

UI linebackers coach
It was one of those games when head coach Kirk Ferentz's buddy Bill Belichick would have said, "Stats are for losers, the final score is for winners."
In a game that was dominated by the Hawkeyes on Tom Osborne Field, the final statistics showed Nebraska with advantages in first downs (20-14) and total yards (288-281). The final score of 38-17 showed the worst whipping of a Nebraska team on its own soil since Missouri defeated the Cornhuskers 52-17 in 2008.
"It's exciting for us, we just want to help the team win," Morris said. "We want to play well and you can feed off it when all the guys are playing well. Maybe we did a little bit of that today."
First it was Hitchens with an interception and 18-yard return on Nebraska's opening possession.
"As soon as I saw Hitch get an interception I was so excited," Kirksey said. "We always said Hitch was going to get one some time."
For Hitchens, it was the first pick of his career.
Morris followed with his fourth interception of the season (and sixth career) to end Nebraska's second drive.
"Then when James got his, I was like, `OK, it's my turn. I have to get one.'" Kirksey said.
What Kirksey got was the most important turnover of the final quarter. Iowa was leading 24-17 with more than 10 minutes remaining and the Cornhuskers were 60 yards from a tying touchdown. Nebraska running back Ameer Abdullah -- with 1,568 rushing yards and eight touchdowns this season -- darted up the middle and veered left before running into a Hitchens road block. Kirksey whizzed in from the side and jarred the ball loose before Hawkeye Louis Trinca-Pasat recovered. Iowa went on to record its first win in Lincoln since 1943.
"Hitch made a great play," said Kirksey, who until postgame interviews thought his teammate forced the fumble. "I was there with him containing the ball carrier."
And knocking the ball free.
"Every minute of every day since last year they worked their butts off to get to where they are now," Woods said. "They compete every day in practice to see who can make the most plays and get the most turnovers. It's always great for a defense when your senior leaders are the ones making the plays and showing the way."
They did it in the final regular season game of their final season...on a big stage...against an excellent opponent.
"We wanted to make sure we left it all on the field," Morris said. "I think some of the turnovers were a result of that effort and intensity."

Life in Boulder is pretty sweet. The sun is almost always shining, people are smiling, and the fashion can't be beat. OK, so it's not exactly Paris or Milan, but that doesn't mean we don't have a killer sense of style. I bet if you were to stroll down Pearl Street at this very moment, you'd see at least 5 women looking fab. What's more, I guarantee they're wearing at least one Boulder Fashion Essential. Don't know what that includes? Let's take a look.
- Let's face it, Boulder is a mountain town, which means mountain climate. It tends to get a bit chilly. But are people wearing pea coats and fur chubbies? Um, no. This town is all about fashion and function, which means your outerwear has to have some technical abilities. I'm talking Patagonia, North Face, or Mont Bell, to name a few. My personal fave is the Women's Retro-X Vest from Patagonia in Sable Brown. Worn with a comfy Splendid tee and J Brand Jeans, you'll be the best-dressed in the check-out line at Whole Foods.
- Chances are, if you walk into Max, Corepower, or even the local Target, you're going to see a woman wearing tights or leggings. These babies are a necessity. Wear yours with an over sized flannel, and a pair of boots.
- Speaking of boots, if you're not wearing a pair of Frye's or Ugg's, it's time to make an investment. Some may say that Ugg's are so 2007, but I say, wear 'em. Mine keep me cozy and warm, plus they look great over leggings or skinny jeans. If you threw out your Ugg's with your Juicy Velour sweatsuit, no worries. Frye boots (or any cowboy boot) are the way to go. Personally, I invested in a pair of Lucchese's.
- A great pair of jeans are a Boulder must. Worn anywhere from happy hour at The Kitchen to Saturday morning at McGuckin's, jeans are your go-to wardrobe necessity. They don't have to be pricey to look amazing. I love a classic pair of Levi's just as much as a premium pair from Current/Elliott.
- Last but certainly not least, you've got to be wearing some shades if your going to survive in Boulder. With an average of 300 days of sun per year, you won't want to leave home without them. But remember, we're not in Laguna Beach. No Chanel logos or tacky double G's. I'd go with a classic pair of Ray-Ban's. The Wayfarer style or Aviators are always a safe bet.
Well, there you go! Now you're looking like a Boulder native. And remember, if you're ever feeling out of place, just reach for a Kombucha or a yoga mat. You'll be back in business in no time.

The Cerebral Palsy Association of Middlesex County is a 501 (c)(3) and a 509 (a)(1) tax-exempt nonprofit agency approved by the Internal Revenue Service. Therefore, contributions made to the Association are tax deductible.
You may want to discuss with your financial planner, accountant, or attorney the following methods to make contributions to the Cerebral Palsy Association and control taxable income as well:
Outright Gifts: Gifts of cash, appreciated property and tangible personal property directly and immediately benefit the many programs and activities of the Cerebral Palsy Association. Simplicity and ease of delivery are the factors that make this type of charitable giving the most popular.
Life Insurance: Life insurance has the unique ability to meet varied protection needs of individuals. An important but overlooked function is the role it can play in planned giving. For a relatively modest outlay, a donor can make a substantial gift to the Cerebral Palsy Association.
Wills & Bequests: Through conferring with an attorney, this method of support helps ensure that your legacy continues according to your wishes. Unfortunately, a significant number of Americans relinquish the privilege of directing the disposition of their assets and leave to the state of New Jersey the responsibility of disposing of their wealth that was hard earned over the course of a lifetime.
Life Income Plans: You may want to make a significant and long lasting gift to the Association - a gift that could benefit you, your loved ones and the Association at the same time. The Tax Reform Act of 1986 permitted certain discretionary means for individuals to control and maximize income. Financial instruments like Charitable Remainder Trusts, Unitrusts, Annuity Trusts, Pooled Income Funds and Charitable Lead Trusts are some of the long-term options available for donors. Consultation with a tax advisor, accountant or attorney is highly recommended since individual financial situations are unique.
To discuss Wills, Bequests or Life Income Plans, please call or email Venus Majeski, Director of Development & Community Relations, at 732.549.6187 - firstname.lastname@example.com.

Some of Montpellier's more splendid residences are its "folies," a series of castles, country estates, and summer homes built in the foliage (hence the name, derived from the French word "feuille" for leaf) by the city's elite during the 17th and 18th centuries.
Created during a period of ostentation as signifiers of the owners' wealth and social standing and their service to the King, these "folies" were often adorned with spacious parks and landscaped gardens.
Chateau de Flaugergues is Montpellier's oldest "folie," built in 1696 by Etienne de Flaugergues whose careful landscaping served as a template for numerous other regional "folies."
A family home, then and now, Chateau de Flaugergues is notable for its three-flight, suspended staircase that occupies nearly one third of the chateau's total area.
A rare example of a hanging key vault style of architecture, the staircase is a phenomenon with its forged iron banisters and decorative balusters – and its position in the center of the chateau.
Outside, the chateau's parks and gardens encompass nearly ten acres and include a terraced French flowerbed, a botanical garden, an olive tree allée, an English garden, and a vineyard.
If you are fortunate enough to be offered a tour of the property by the chateau's owner, the Count Henri de Colbert, then you will be given a fascinating window into French life as lived during the reign of kings.
Follow his lead into the wine cellar – and toast to the good life in France.

February saw more strong job growth in California. The state's inflation rate was on the rise, reflecting rising housing and energy costs.April and May clearly show that while California's economic growth continues, it has slowed from the extraordinary 2000 performance. The state's slowdown is predominantly centered in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Nonfarm employment increased by 3,200 in May, compared to gains of 20,000 in April and 60,000 in March. Nationally, nonfarm employment fell by 19,000 during May. Since the beginning of the year, California has accounted for 73 percent of all new nonfarm jobs in the nation, and 63 percent of all new US jobs over the past year.
Nonfarm employment increased by 3,200 in May, compared to gains of 20,000 in April and 60,000 in March. Nationally, nonfarm employment fell by 19,000 during May. Since the beginning of the year, California has accounted for 73 percent of all new nonfarm jobs in the nation, and 63 percent of all new US jobs over the past year.
During May, government added 8,400 jobs, with reductions in federal and state government employment more than offset by a 10,800 increase in local government—mainly education. In the private sector, financial services added 2,100 jobs, wholesale trade was up 1,500, and transportation/utilities increased by 1,000.
Services fell 6,400, due in part to a decline of 1,300 in computer services (not seasonally adjusted), the first such decline since the series has been reported beginning in January 1996. Manufacturing was down 1,500, with the electronics industries falling by 2,400. On a yearly comparison, manufacturing is down 5,400. Nationally, factories dropped 124,000 jobs in May and 614,000 over the past year.
California's unemployment rate was unchanged in May at 4.9 percent, although the April rate was revised up 0.1 percentage point from the 4.8 percent originally reported. The rate a year ago was 5.0 percent. While still low by state and national standards, the unemployment rate of all San Francisco Bay Area counties rose in May.
Residential building in April, measured by the number of building permits issued, rose 13.0 percent from one year ago. Single-family construction was up 4.8 percent, while the volatile multifamily sector posted a gain of 43.7 percent.
Nonresidential construction, measured by permit values, continued to slide from the January peak. Although April permits were up only 0.9 percent above the April 2000 level, dollar value during the first four months of 2001 ran 7.7 percent above the same period last year. Strong office construction growth continues to lead nonresidential construction gains, with the largest increases occurring in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Several developments in California public works construction, including major power plant projects, bode well for California's outlook. Heavy (civil works) construction begun during the first four months of 2001 totaled $4.05 billion, up 29.6 percent from the same period in 2000, with substantial growth in power plant construction. Four large power plant projects were started in Kern, San Bernardino, and Monterey counties, totaling $1.3 billion.
According to the California Association of Realtors, California's real estate market is beginning to cool off, especially in Santa Clara County—the state's costliest region. Statewide sales of existing single-family homes clocked a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 495,390 units in April, up a scant 0.5 percent from one year ago. Following a significant run-up in March, the median price of a single-family home dropped to $262,420 in April.
In Santa Clara County, the median price of an existing single family home declined to $530,000, 5.4 percent less than the April 2000 median. Sales of existing homes in the county fell dramatically, down 39.5 percent from a year ago.

Monthly Cash Report
Preliminary General Fund agency cash for May was $34 million below the 2001-02 May Revision forecast of $4.44 billion. Including adjustments for actual April receipts that were not known when the May Revision forecast was prepared, year-to-date, revenues are $41 million higher than the $70.855 billion that was expected. Although May is a significant revenue month, June is far more important. As the second-largest month of the year, $8.6 billion is expected during June.

You know how it is, you've got a great top, dress or bodycon bottom to wear, but none of your bras or panties make you look right underneath. Whether it's a seam showing through here, a bit of lace coming out of the neckline there or a strap you can't quite tame, without the right lingerie your look is in trouble. Do yourself a favor: rather than waiting until the last minute to find something that works, keep an arsenal at home, on hand. Extra bonus: it'll help you style your outfit when you can put it on with the right underthings rather than having to imagine them there. Keep in mind these are the basics, if you've got some out of control J.Lo Grammy dress, you might want to schedule a special shopping trip.
T-Shirt Bra
Do you really need a T-shirt bra, even if you rarely sport tees? Yes, you do. The idea is that a T-shirt bra doesn't have any embellishment that would ruin the shape of a plain T-shirt. But this goes for any of your basic tops from the classic white button down to a pretty chiffon blouse.
$36.00 at Gap.
Front-Close Bra
Here's the deal with front-closers you may not know: They're ideal to separate the girls and diminish cleavage. Why would you want to do that? Well, if you're wearing a low U-neck or V-neck and want to keep it classy, or if you have a long chain necklace you want to stay front and center rather than bouncing on top of the twins, getting all crooked. Trust me when I say, these situations come up more often than you think.
$22.00 at J.C. Penney.
Color Basics
It's not exciting, it's not necessarily sexy, but it is important you have a go-to full coverage style that's comfortable; and that you have in white, black and nude. When it comes to dressing in your everyday wardrobe (and maximizing versatility), it pays to be safe.
$38 - $55 at Victoria's Secret.
Legit Strapless
Why do I say "legit?" Because most strapless bras aren't. They just don't stay put and hold up — literally. And forget about it if you're busty, the typical strapless will push your girls up so high they'll be introduced to your chin. My personal favorite alternative is the strapless bra by Spanx; it's heavy duty and it works, regardless of your size. It wasn't until I got one of these that I could actually start wearing strapless dresses. True story.
$68 at Spanx.
Racerback Hardware
Many, but not all, front-closing bras are also racerback, so you can kill two birds with one stone there. Or you can buy one of these plastic guys that convert your regular bras into a racerback. I prefer them, as genuine racerbacks typically don't offer a lot of support. Think you can just skip racerback attire? Think again. More and more summer tanks are being cranked out in this style. Besides, a girl's back is super sexy, the racer style let's you show it off!
$8 at Kohl's.
Lacy and Racy Bra
Here style meets fun and function. The stretch lace is very comfortable and the demi style pushes your girls out and together for some extra cleavage. This bra is why I didn't have to include the erstwhile "miracle" bra on this list. The pushup action isn't too out of control, just right. Think of it as your sexy basic.
$36 at Bare Necessities.
Seamless Boy Shorts
On to undies. We've so many different kinds of underwear in our drawers, it's silly. You really only need two styles. The boy shorts work under anything, but are especially good to wear under short and/or slightly see-through bottoms. Never have to worry about bending over or showing more than you want. Plus, they're sexy on, too.
$30/pair at Bergdorf Goodman.
This is your second must-have undie. This type exactly. There are a lot of styles out there. But this one doesn't dig anywhere you don't want it to, it stays in place, looks good on and comes in like 6,000 colors. Okay, maybe not 6,000. But virtually every retailer that sells thongs, sells a version of this type. So there are a lot of choices.
$20 at Neiman Marcus.
Body-Shaping Slip
Even movie stars who work out for an hour everyday wear shapewear. No longer is it for Grandma on Sundays. A little bit of extra help slimming and shaping can never hurt a girl.
$15.80 at Forever 21.

Aug. 31, 2012
College Park, Md. - Junior Reed Williams scored two goals and true freshman goalkeeper Juan Cervantes made five saves in his first ever start as the 11th-ranked UCLA men's soccer team earned a 2-2 draw on the road at sixth-ranked Maryland.
With goalkeeper Earl Edwards out due to injury, Cervantes got his first start in goal and was tested early by the Terrapins. In the 3rd minute, Patrick Mullins headed a corner kick on goal but Cervantes was in good position and made the save. Then the Bruins got on the board in the eighth minute, after Matt Wiet put a throw-in into the box to Ryan Hollingshead. Hollingshead headed the ball down nicely to Reed Williams who scored near post for his first goal of the year, giving UCLA an early 1-0 lead.
The lead would be short lived though, as Maryland scored just 20 seconds later after Mullins crossed the ball to the middle past a diving Cervantes to Dan Metzger, who chipped it into the empty net for the equalizer.
UCLA would answer again though in the 14th minute when Williams scored his second goal of the match to put the Bruins up 2-1. Victor Munoz started the play with a nice pass to the right side of the box to an open Fernando Monge. Monge then crossed the ball to the middle to Williams who one-timed the ball into the net for the goal.
Neither side saw a serious scoring chance again until the 35th minute, when the ball trickled around in the UCLA box and fell at the feet of Mikias Eticha of Maryland, who put a bouncing shot on goal that hit the post and was cleared away from danger. The Bruins were able to keep Maryland out of the net from there and took a 2-1 lead into the half.
At the start of the second half, Evan Raynr had a chance to make it 3-1 Bruins when he made a great move in the box and put a shot on goal that was deflected near post. Maryland keeper Keith Cardona made a diving save though to deny Raynr and keep the deficit at 1-1. Then in the 55th minute, the Terrapins saw a good chance when Taylor Kemp put a low lining shot that was deflected by Monge on net. But Cervantes made a great sprawling save to preserve the lead.
In the 68th minute, Maryland got the equalizer when they were awarded a penalty kick after Schillo Tshuma was taken down in the box. John Stertzer stepped to take the kick and converted it to tie the score at 2-2, despite Cervantes guessing the right way. Both sides could not find the back of the net for the rest of regulation and the match went to overtime.
Maryland almost ended the match with a golden goal in the 93rd minute when Stertzer received a cross at the far post and one-timed a shot on goal. But Cervantes came up with the save of the night, reaching out and knocking the ball away to preserve the tie. Neither side was able to come up with a goal in either overtime period and the match ended in a 2-2 tie.
Overall, UCLA was outshot by Maryland 22-8 in the match. As mentioned above, Cervantes made five saves in his first ever start for the Bruins while Cardona made two saves. Despite giving up two goals, the back line of Chris Cummings, Matt Wiet, Joe Sofia and Grady Howe did well to fend off Maryland's attacks and preserve the draw.
"Our guys battled the entire match in a challenging environment," head coach Jorge Salcedo said after the match. "Scoring two goals during the run of play and creating other good moments is encouraging. We were very unlucky to have a penalty kick called against us in the second half, but in soccer you create your own luck and we have to keep pushing forward."
UCLA (0-1-1) will now head south to take on the Virginia Cavaliers (1-1) on Sunday, Sept. 2 at 4 pm PT in Charlottesville, Va.

Winter weather could continue through late March, climatologist says
The Climate Prediction Center's latest readings suggest snow and bitter cold will plague the state for another month.
INDIANA – Looks like we might not be getting relief from this year's crazy winter weather anytime soon.
Ken Scheeringa, a climatologist with the State Climate Office at Purdue University, told The Associated Press that the Climate Prediction Center's latest readings suggest snow and bitter cold could continue through late March across the state.
Scheeringa said the forecast calls for a colder than normal, though mostly dry start to March. The trend will continue through most of March, although there's a chance precipitation could increase by the end of the month, The Associated Press reported.

Director: Diana DeVoe

"Sometimes you're not what you think you are."
This entry in the series surrounds a bachelorette party and the relationships and intrigue around it all. Only the occasional bit of off camerawork and director Diana DeVoe's direction left in the audio of Zoe Voss' solo scene keeps this from its potential at times, but lesbo lovers will enjoy this regardless.
MILF Darla Crane dominates young'un Chastity Lynn, spanking and flogging the girl, and the older/younger contrast between the two blondes is hot, with Crane ass-fucking the girl with a strap-on. Ash Hollywood renders Dana DeArmond into a squeaky toy when she rubs her clit, and DeArmond chokes Hollywood as she fingers her. DeArmond and Voss also meet up for some great crotch-munching and toe-sucking.
A Hollywood/Voss pairing is supposed to be a dream sequence, but instead it just looks blurry in places. Also, the graphic artist who doesn't know the correct usage of "your" versus "you're" needs to be schooled. Really, it doesn't look good when that's used incorrectly on a box cover.

Like a child who plays with the same toy day in and day out, we too can get bored with doing the same workout every day. And just as that child will eventually discard the toy for a box, a patch of dirt, or something shiny we will likely can the workout for something more appealing, which is hopefully not baking cookies and having movie marathons. There are so many options for cardio in Los Angeles you should never have to worry about becoming bored with the treadmill, elliptical, or time worn run trails. An intense yet fun alternative, dancing, can be found in dance studios and gyms throughout Los Angeles.
If you already have a gym membership then you may know the wonders of dance workout classes. Most gyms offer some dance class in their group workout line ups. Zumba is a dance workout which combines aerobic fitness with Latin dance, hip hop, reggae, Samba, belly dance, and many other dance styles from all over the world. Zumba participants can see changes in their core, arms, glutes, and legs, remembering what you put into the workout will determine your results. Zumba classes can be found on Zumba Los Angeles webpage under the class schedule tab. Bally Total Fitness of West L.A. ((310) 820-7571), The Sports Club of L.A., and Gold's Gym are among the many gyms in the city that have begun to offer Zumba classes. Swerve Studio in Beverly Hills has a number of classes that allow you to dance and burn calories at the same time, including ballet, Soul Dancing and Bollywood Bhangra Beats classes.
Still not convinced of the fitness powers of dance? You can see its resume next time you find yourself watching Fox's So You Think You Can Dance, or ABC's Dancing with the Stars. Fitness dance classes are a promising workout, and don't worry everyone, regardless of their level of rhythm, can participate. However if your not quite ready to get out there and strut your stuff buy a DVD and start in your living room.

DAV Public School, Ludhiana
In a just a short span of 25 years, Dayanand Anglo Vedic Public School, Bhai Randhir Singh Nagar, Ludhiana, has emerged as one of the most prestigious institutions in northern India. Although managed directly by the prestigious D.A.V. College Managing Committee, New Delhi, which is running more than 650 educational institutions all over the country and abroad, the DAV Public School, Ludhiana, has more or less become synonymous with its principal, Mr R. S. Patial, who has been heading the institution for the past about 23 years. He sounds and looks like a man totally in control of his institution. And like a proud father who never tires of recounting the sterling performance of his offspring, Mr Patial is proud of announcing that he has built the school brick by brick.
The school functioned in the rented accommodation up to March 1987. Construction work on the present building began in December 1986 and the first stage was completed in 1994. The school now covers a wide area of four acres in one of the posh colonies of the city. The building has well equipped laboratories; well-stocked library to cater to the practical, theoretical and literary needs of the students and teachers.
The school is independent and does not get any grant from the government or any other agency. School raises its own resources through fees and contributions of public and donations by philanthropists and industrialists. The school is now planning to open another branch.

Topical medications for cats can be used for everyday treatments, such as tick and flea control, or for particular cases as ointments where wounds are present. Many topical medications come with an applicator; others require a cotton swab for application. When applying a topical medication on a feline, do so in an area on his/her body where kitty cannot lick it off... The best possible place for topical medication application is on the back of the neck.
For flea and tick treatment:
To apply topical medications, you will need a cotton swab or applicator, and the medication. An Elizabethan collar is recommended, but not required.
Hold your cat decisively. Kitty may be standing, sitting or lying, so long as kitty is still.
Part the fur on the back of your feline's neck so the skin is exposed in a line.
Place the applicator straight onto the skin, and squeeze until all the medication is used... Avoid getting the medication on your cat's fur.
For wound treatment:
Squeeze a daub of medication onto a cotton swab.
Hold your cat resolutely making sure he/she is still. This might be easier said than done where a wound is there, because she/he will be sensitive to it. Quick application is the key.
Separate the fur around the wound and apply the medication directly to the wound.
Place the Elizabethan collar around the feline's neck, if the wound is in an area where she/he will lick it.
At all times pursue the manufacturer's directions for applying medications. Be sure to converse with your veterinarian concerning how often to reapply medication to wounds.

Autumn Might See Gold Trading Down Before Rebounding
By Tom Pizzuti and Kurt Hulse Aug 27, 2013 10:30 am
Gold bulls and gold bears can profit if they know their trading time frames.
Third Example: Seeing the Trade on a Higher Time Frame, Executing It on a Lower One
There probably are a few good trades left between now and the end of the big correction. Those opportunities should be traded on a daily time frame, but they are more easily seen on the weekly and monthly timeframes.
So where will gold go from here? At the moment, the rally from the late-June low should be seen as a retrace -- part of what could be an ending diagonal forming to complete the large correction of the past two years. We have diagramed this, our primary scenario, on the weekly chart below. The Elliott Wave count on the weekly chart corresponds with the count labeled in black on the daily chart above, and it calls for two more lower lows before a bigger rally can occur.
A variation on the ending diagonal scenario is not shown on the weekly chart, but is shown with green labels on the daily chart. The effect of that would be to produce just one lower low before a larger rally.
As traders using Elliott Wave, we always have to consider the "what ifs" that would tell us our projection and trading plan is wrong. Two possible alternatives are more easily seen on the monthly chart, below.
The first alternative would be if the June low was the final part of the correction. On a monthly timeframe, the count for that idea looks okay, although it doesn't look quite as defensible on weekly and daily charts. In any case, if price were to exceed the May high of $1487.20, that would be an indication that the low is probably already in. Traders who took advantage of the move up from late June could get back on the trade after seeing confirmation, and they'd be farther ahead with minimized risk.
The second alternative would be for the whole downward move from 2011 to be more than just a 4th wave correction. That would be confirmed if price were to go below $1,102.20, the level of the previous 1st wave. Breaching that level would almost certainly spark selling, although it is not clear whether it would result in a sustained move downward. We believe this scenario is unlikely.

According to a Tuesday story in the Hollywood Reporter film actress Penelope Cruz joined a number of Spanish actors, directors, writers, and musicians, including Cruz's husband Javier Bardem, in signing an open letter denouncing Israel's campaign against Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip. The letter, which was widely reported in Spanish media, referred to the campaign as "genocidal." It placed the onus for the current conflict solely on Israel and demanded that the Jewish state cease military operations, lift the blockade of Gaza that inhibits the smuggling of weapons, and unilaterally withdraw to the pre-1967 borders.
The letter apparently did not mention Hamas' rocket barrage on Israel, largely fended off by the Iron Dome ABM system. It also did not mention the infiltration tunnels that the IDF has found and are closing down, which were used to infiltrate terrorists, such as the ones who murdered three Israeli teenagers recently. Finally unmentioned was the fact that Hamas used civilians, including women and children as human shields, not Israel's extraordinary efforts to hold down civilian casualties, including dropping leaflets and making phone calls.
The Hollywood Reporter also noted that the film community has been largely silent about the latest Israel/Hamas war. The exception was Israeli actress Gal Gadot, who appears as Wonder Woman in the upcoming "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' who tweeted support for her countrymen fighting against the Hamas terrorist. She has received a firestorm of rage on social media as a result.
It should be noted that Cruz, who is famous in the United States in a number of film roles such as "Captain Corelli's Mandolin," "Sahara," and "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides," did not participate in a statement written in English. It may be that was by design, since coming out so vociferously against Israel might be offensive to film fans and even the Hollywood community. However the story has crossed the Atlantic and has been translated into English with consequences that remain to be seen.

I think the idea in this subthread is that Group: is good for indexing. Either at install time, or at cleanup time, or at "what sorts of packages do I have on my system" time. So maybe the question isn't "What should we do with Group:?", but rather "How can we best provide indexes of available or installed packages?" I think keywords and indexing tools are a very good idea here. David

Yolo Sun: Double-talk in Gateway II approval is a double-cross of downtown
Excerpts from the Yolo Sun opinion piece "SacBee article outlines local planning context; illumination between-the-lines still required:"
Initially, general development drift was westerly, most commercial zoning kept along Main and Court Streets. Much of this earlier "strip-mall" type of development (in Sangree's words), "proliferated and deteriorated."
Significantly adverse community blight currently exists related to this (in Petrovich's words): "obsolete retail — four-and-five-decade-old stuff when there were a lot of shop tenants in the world before the advent of big-box," as Sangree's story starkly confirms.
Woodland presently has ~276 acres of vacant / undeveloped commercial property, with about a quarter-million square feet of vacant retail space. Blight is a major ingredient in the present experience of our downtown.
Excitement with County Faire Mall developers (a Petrovich of those days) led to a totally unnecessary selling-out of our downtown's entertainment function, with Mall inclusion of a new movie-theater complex, for decades undermining any possibility of supporting renovation and expansion of historic State Theatre (oddly, a prime goal of our original Downtown Specific Plan adopted shortly after the Mall opened — but now seemingly buried forever by the recent, perverse and non-transparent city council decision to permit Chase Bank to occupy a needed, adjacent parcel).
A clear litmus test of utter nonsense regarding the newly proposed, double-breasted Gateway is that one-third of the commercial zoning (20 of 60 acres) is being designated for motor vehicle dealerships, allegedly vacating Main Street; while at the same time, the city is beginning to assist these very same dealerships with locating at another site in eastern Woodland.
There are no motor vehicle dealerships on Main Street that will relocate into Petrovich's commercial crypt at a new Gateway. Bad-faith thus flows from its basic developmental documents, staining our civic processes, while a majority of our city council members appear oblivious.
Here is a case of double-talk turning out a double-barreled Gateway and a double-cross of our downtown.

I am combining some simple products in our catalog to grouped products. I need to create 301 redirects from the current simple product pages to the new grouped product page.
Here is an example of what I have:
- Products a, b, and c are similar simple products, each with their own url.
- Grouped Product z has a, b and c associated to it.
- Visibility for a, b, and c are changed to "not visible individually."
- Visiting the old link for product c results in a "404 Not Found" error.
I want step 4 to result in a "301 Moved Permanently" with the grouped product url. I know I can change the entries in the URL Rewrites list manually, but I am looking for a more automated approach.
Can anybody help point me in the right direction?
I have updated the file app/code/local/Mage/Catalog/controllers/ProductController.php with:
protected function _initProduct()
$categoryId = (int) $this->getRequest()->getParam('category', false);
$productId = (int) $this->getRequest()->getParam('id');
$params = new Varien_Object();
$parentIds = Mage::getModel('catalog/product_type_grouped')->getParentIdsByChild($productId);
$parent = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($parentIds[0]);
return Mage::helper('catalog/product')->initProduct($productId, $this, $params);
I would expect that to kill any simple product page view, but it doesn't. It seems like the product controller is not being called for products set as not visible. Is that correct?
If I modify the "core" file instead of the "local" version, this works. Any ideas on why that is?

Formulated with Jojoba and Eucalyptus
An entirely new way to shave. Unlike traditional foams and gels which can dry out skin, Jack Black Beard Lube is a pre-shave oil, shave cream and facial skin treatment in one easy-to-use product. The unique formula contains phospholipids - a rich source of essential fatty acids that are essential to the function of cell membranes - to bind moisture to the skin and support the natural skin barrier.

Refreshes skin, too, for an easier, smoother shave and less razor burn. The unique see-through texture lets you see where you're shaving, helping to prevent nicks and cuts--especially great for shaving side burns, moustache and head. Won't clog your blade, because it's super light and rinses easily.
Macadamia nut oil, jojoba oil and glycerin provide a lubricating, protective
Directions: Work a quarter-sized amount into your slightly moist beard every time you shave--in the shower, or immediately after showering. Beard Lube has built-in moisture, so you don't need a lot of water. For areas with heavier, coarser whiskers, allow product to remain on skin for 60 seconds before shaving. Glide razor over face. Rinse with warm water.

Fran and Gary Dolphin make for a pretty good pair behind the microphones at Carlos O'Kelly's.
Nov. 12, 2010
IOWA CITY, Iowa - Random thoughts on what appears to be the final day of summer/fall/Indian Summer 2010 in the Heartland...
The UI and the Iowa City Coralville Area Convention and Visitors Bureau submitted the paperwork earlier this week required to be considered as the hosts for the 2012 United States Olympic Wrestling Trials. The event is to be staged in April of 2012 and, for my money, there isn't a more logical place to bring it that our own revitalized Carver-Hawkeye Arena. Just one person's opinion, of course. And, hey, want to help attract the attention of the decision-makers? Click HERE.
Fran McCaffery was a special guest on Hawk Talk with Kirk Ferentz Wednesday night at Carlos O'Kelly's Mexican Café: Two predictions: 1. Hawk fans are going to love having Fran stalking the sidelines of Carver. 2. Gary Dolphin is going to thoroughly enjoy sharing the microphone each Monday night with Fran during the hoops season.
Fran was upstaged by his wife, Margaret, last week. Last night, it was Jim Zabel's turn. The legendary WHO Radio sports director and "Voice of the Hawkeyes" shared a few laughs with Dolph while plugging his new book, "I Love It! I Love it! I Love It!" I was crying with laughter. Jim tells a good story. No, let me take that back. Jim tells a great story and I agree 1,000 percent with Kirk when he said, upon arrival at the home of Bruce Titus and the gang, that Jim is a walking-talking history book for the Iowa Hawkeyes.
Speaking of Kirk, he cut to the chase in his weekly press conference, pointing squarely at one of his favorite (least favorite?) lines on the box score for the reason behind Iowa's lack of victories in its last two games with Saturday's opponent. Iowa's head coach said one doesn't need to look any further than Northwestern's 9-2 advantage in turnovers. "They have done a good job of playing the way you're supposed to play and we haven't. I think we had nine turnovers and they had two in two years. You do the math. In games as even as those, you're not going to win," offered Kirk.

Burlington native, UI grad, and former Big Ten Conference commissioner Wayne Duke is among the inductees this year into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame. The ceremony will take place Nov. 21 in Kansas City. Duke was instrumental in the expansion of the NCAA Tournament in the 1970s, was commissioner of the Big 8 before assuming the same position for the nation's grandest conference, and served for years as the head of the NCAA men's basketball committee. I appreciate the fact that Wayne knows my name. From where I sit, he's cut from the same cloth as Bump Elliott and it doesn't get much better than that.
For those of you who haven't been on campus lately, you might want to know that Duane Banks Field was resurfaced during the last three weeks. It really looks nice and, the assumption is, there will be much better footing for our outfielders and fewer of those right-turn bounces by the balls that do fall in play.
The "jump off the page" stat of the week for Saturdays' contest in sold out Ryan Field on the campus of Northwestern University? Has to be "Total Defense." Iowa is allowing its opponent 294 yards per game, the Wildcats 389. That, combined with the fact that NU also ranks 10th in penalty yards per game (63), should give some fans of the Hawkeyes a better chance to sleep well on Friday night. For the record, I seldom sleep well on Friday nights in the fall and can't imagine I'll sleep all that well tonight. Just one of those things that's, admittedly, job-related.
Go Hawks!

Sun Journalist, Cop Arrested in U.K. Tabloid Probe
U.K. police arrested a 37-year-old male journalist and a 29-year-old police officer Tuesday as part of the ongoing investigation into bribery by News Corp.'s tabloids and other U.K. newspapers.
There have been 43 arrests thus far in the bribery probe, known as Operation Elveden, that opened in June 2011, though no one has faced any charges. Operation Elveden is running parallel to a police-led probe into phone hacking by newspapers owned by News International, the News Corp. U.K. newspaper unit. News Corp. publishes this blog.
A News International spokeswoman confirmed to The Wall Street Journal that the journalist arrested works for the News Corp. tabloid the Sun, though she declined to name him.
More coverage of the arrests is available here, here and here.
Police said in a statement the journalist was arrested at his home in North London on Tuesday morning "on suspicion of conspiracy to corrupt" and "conspiracy to cause misconduct in a public office." The statement said he was still in custody as of the afternoon.
The 29-year-old cop was arrested on the same suspicions, along with suspicion of misconduct in a public office. He remained in custody as of Tuesday afternoon.
The bribery arrests have mostly focused on the Sun, News Corp.'s daily U.K. tabloid, and of cops and other public officials. Two current and former reporters of Trinity Mirror PLC have also been arrested.

Adam Lambert Arrested in Finland After Club Fight With Boyfriend
Adam Lambert has been arrested in Finland after a fight with his Finnish-born boyfriend Sauli Koskinen.
Lambert and Koskinen began arguing at the Helsinki gay club Don't Tell Mama (or DTM, as it's also known).
They then brawled outside the club, and Lambert allegedly even smacked bystanders who tried to break up the fight.
The police came shortly after 4 a.m. and carted off Lambert and Koskinen to separate police station jails.
The two have since been released.
It's unclear what precipitated the fight, but Gossip Cop is still investigating what happened between the "American Idol" runner-up and his boyfriend, a former Finnish "Big Brother" winner.
RELATED – Adam Lambert in Violent Fight with Photographer, Accused of Battery
Lambert tried to make light of the situation on Twitter Thursday, writing, "Jetlag+Vodka=blackout. Us÷blackout=irrational confusion. jail+guilt+press=lesson learned. Sauli+Adam+hangover burgers= laughing bout it."

No more seven overtime ties
After St. Ignatius and Sylvania Northview battled for seven overtimes in the state hockey championship game last winter, the game still had not been decided. Players were tired, dehydrated, and player safety became a real issue as the overtimes kept piling up.
Not really having a solution to the problem, and looking out for the health of the players, the OHSAA put an end to the game, announcing the game would end in a tie, and both teams were to be named state hockey champions.
I think with high school rules dealing with safety and the (importance) of health, and I think everybody put their heads together and tried to make the right decision for the health and safety of our kids.... Dan Ross, Commissioner of the Ohio High School Athletic Association
It wasn't exactly a popular decision
The OHSAA knew they had to do something, and do something quickly. Last Thursday, after consulting with coaches, athletic directors, and even members of professional hockey organizations, they passed a proposal through their Board of Directors, that will take effect next hockey season.
The changes are the following:
- The first overtime will be played 5-on-5 for 8 minutes
- The next four overtimes will be played 4-on-4
- If those four overtimes has not produced a winner, teams will turn to a shootout, with three skaters participating on each team
Reaction to the proposal has been generally favorable, and the OHSAA hopes that by passing this proposal, that it does reduce the risk of serious injury, or serious health issues during a game.
If you agree or disagree with the new rule, MOST believe that something should have been done, and it was

Football United is extremely proud to launch our new project, Digital Connections. The project, launched yesterday at Miller Technolgy High School, equips and trains youth leaders to help Football United participants share their stories and engage with the wider community through digital media.
Backed by a $250,000 grant over three years from the Telstra Foundation, the program harnesses the skills and experience of acclaimed film maker Phillip Noyce. Mr Noyce appeared via pre-recorded video at today's Digital Connections launch along with former Matilda's star Gill Foster and Mayor of Liverpool, Wendy Waller.
"I'm extremely pleased to be an ambassador for Football United's Digital Connections project," Mr Noyce said. "I spent some time with Football United participants last year and was captivated by their passion and drive. "With cameras in hand, these remarkable youngsters will be able to tell, and share, their incredible stories. I sincerely hope that through this project we will develop some budding young film-makers in Australia that will captivate audiences across the world."
Telstra Group Managing Director, Strategy and Corporate Services, Paul Fegan said the corporation was delighted to stand behind the initiative.
"This is a fantastic project that will serve to empower disadvantaged young people through the use of technology. Football United is one of eight innovative, community-based organisations funded by the Telstra Foundation in 2011, for projects designed to promote social inclusion and connection in communities across the country," Mr Fegan said.
Football United founding director Anne Bunde-Birouste said she was thrilled by the support.
"Phillip Noyce got excited about the power of Football United last year when he saw our film, Football United, Passport to Hope [Foxtel Bio/North one]. This project is the perfect fit – combined with the Telstra grant, his support and engagement not only gives the participants the highest level of mentoring, it provides respect and recognition of their potential to develop and thrive."
Information and Cultural Exchange (ICE) in Parramatta have partnered with Football United in this Digital Connections project and will provide techincal and educational support. Workshop facilitator Saber Baluch, an accomplished film maker and trainer - supported by ICE's Creative Enterprise Program - has been working with Football United participants in recent weeks.
Zarrin Aghdasi, a year 12 student at Miller Technology High School, introduced the guests and did an exceptional job speaking to the 500-strong crowd assembled at Miller. After her performance, Zarrin exclaimed "I'm excited to be part of Digital Connections project, as it will mean more opportunities for students to develop their multimedia production skills to help make their dreams come true". Alongside Zarrin, Football United youth leader and coach, Shahin Alanezi addressed the crowd and recored interviews during the launch. "I really like the idea of making films" he said. "It is a great way to express myself and my opinion in a peaceful and good way".
After the Launch, a select Telstra team, including Mr Fegan, took on select teams from Airds High School and Miller Technology High School in a hard fought futsal game. Granville South and Football United volunteers also took part, under the watchful eye of Football United Head Coach, Simon Bell.
Any Football United participants keen to be involved, contact us on the web, Facebook or Twitter. Stay tuned over the coming weeks for Digital Connections updates!

Hard work, not miracles will get Ugandans out of poverty, says Museveni
Posted Thursday, May 15 2014 at 01:00
In Summary
Mr Museveni applauded the Agaru Saccos for its initiative in poverty alleviation in the region.
Pader- President Museveni has called upon residents of Pader District to work hard to get out of poverty.
Speaking during the annual general meeting of Agaru Savings and Credit Cooperative Society in Pader District at the weekend, President Museveni noted that people cannot get out of poverty through miracles.
"Me, I get back to Genesis when Adam and Eve were sent out of Eden and they had to toil and fend for themselves. Whatever you eat should be out of your struggle and hard work," the President said.
He gave Shs50 million to the Agaru Sacco.
Mr Museveni applauded the Agaru Saccos for its initiative in poverty alleviation in the region.
"Thanks for implementing the Prosperity For All programme that was initiated in 1995. It is my prayers that you carry it on and eradicate poverty at the house hold level," President Museveni said.

Video: What Do New Yorkers Think About a Strike in Syria?
Arutz Sheva's reporter went out to ask New Yorkers what they think about American intervention in Syria.
By Eliran Aharon, New York

Ferrets are susceptible to the same strains of influenza as people. The influenza virus can be transmitted from ferrets to humans and vice versa.
What are the signs of influenza in ferrets?
In general, influenza causes only mild disease in ferrets. The affected animal may sneeze and have clear nasal discharge, cough (usually at night), be listless, or have a fever, poor appetitie, diarrhea, and rarely, vomiting. The animal may also have mild conjunctivitis with clear drainage from the eyes, and be sensitive to light. Signs will usually last 1-2 weeks. Baby ferrets usually have more severe signs, and are more prone to develop secondary bacterial infections.
How is influenza in ferrets diagnosed?
Physical examination, and the history of recent exposure to a human or ferret with influenza suggest influenza. Other diseases, such as lymphosarcoma, intestinal viral infections, or early canine distemper may cause similar signs. Laboratory testing may be necessary to distinguish between influenza and these diseases. Ferrets with canine distemper usually have ocular and nasal discharge that is white or yellow and thicker, have less coughing and sneezing, have a higher temperature for a longer period of time, and ultimately die of the disease.
How is influenza in ferrets treated?
In general, influenza in ferrets is self-limiting, which means the animal usually recovers on his own without intervention. Supportive care in the form of encouraging the ferret to eat and drink may be necessary, as well as keeping the area around the eyes and nose clean. Antihistamines may be given if the signs become severe. Since this is a viral infection, antibiotics are not given unless there is a secondary bacterial infection.
How is influenza prevented?
Persons exposed to, having signs of, or recovering from influenza should not handle ferrets. If handling is necessary, the person should wear a mask, and wash hands well before and after handling the ferret. Vaccination is not recommended.

We consume 106,000 Iron/Aluminum cans every 30 seconds in the United States. Aluminum is undervalued and production of such cans is auctioned out to the lowest global bidder as the process is quite energy intensive -- a laborious, wasteful and unethical supply chain.
haoshi Design, in cooperation with PLA Studio, has developed and is now producing the "Renew Can" which, if broadly adapted by beverage manufacturer's, could enormously reduce the environmental impact of our "grab-and-go" beverage habits.
The Renew Can is made from Poly-Lactic Acid (PLA), a natural con starch extract. The carbon dioxide emitted by PLA containers is about 40% less than petroleum-based plastics. The can is made with a double-layer design, making it possible for serving hot drinks without scalding your hands. As such, the container is made with a high heat resistant, microwave-safe, PLA.
With a convenient screw top (see picture above) and durable design, the Renew Can is poised for reuse. When your done with it, the can will biodegrade into your compost, providing food -- instead of fill -- for the land.
Renew Cans can be purchased through haoshi Design's website at a sample/demonstration price as the product is only currently developed in small quantities. If PepsiCo or Coca-Cola embraced this technology, the large-scale production would significantly reduce the cost of purchasing the cans. Plus, the reduced energy cost of creating PLA-based containers may free them up to make the units domestically -- there is no crime in optimism!

Toronto's 49th murder victim of 2010 is boy, 15
TORONTO – A 15-year-old boy is among two teens shot dead as they were trying to exit an elevator in an apartment building on Saturday.
Police said Sealand White and Jermaine Derby, 19, had just left a party in the apartment building at 605 Whiteside Place and were heading to the main floor.
"They had just left a party at that location and were heading down the elevator to the main floor, the elevator opened on the main floor and both victims were shot by unknown suspects," police said about the 2 a.m. incident.
Cops said one of the victims made his way through the front entrance of the building on to a driveway where he collapsed and died.
"The other victim remained on the elevator and went to the upper floor where he exited and collapsed on the floor," police said.
"One victim was pronounced dead at the scene. The second victim was taken to hospital where he succumbed to his injuries."
There have been numerous shootings in Toronto in 2010. These two were murders No. 48 and 49.

Do you win customers with art? With words? A web site? Personal media? With facts, hype, drama, or tons of "buzz"?
The answer: all of these. Studies show the more physical senses and media involved in presenting a message, the better the message is retained. Your words, designs and media must be a harmony of stimuli able to massage the veiwer's physical senses. Radio spots should stimulate visions, TV spots should blend sights and sounds into rhythmic energy that moves them to whistle your tune for days. Create a "virtual symphony" of all the sounds, tones, rhythms, colors, and imagery so that audiences can enjoy waltzing through the details of your promotional "experience."
Media orchestration is not new, but today's media are! Could your promotions benefit from a tune-up? Let us help you "strike up your brand" today!
Chemistry that Commands
The chemistry of the human body changes with every shift in one's belief
that their territory (a perception of ownership) is diminishing. Simply stated, people buy products to make bad chemistry better again. Do you know how this engine can drive people to accept your message and to energize them to buy your products and services?
The Secret of Great Design
Great design improves message effectiveness in many ways. Most know
that it attracts the eyes and the minds of customers. Great design also delivers your "look" and your "style," an aesthetic that creates empathy between you and your target market. But, take care — even great design can alienate some customers. What's "your style?"
Poor Marketing Adds Cost
Proven: the best ads and publicity programs cannot save a poorly "marketed"
product. Market research (web analytics, market data, etc.) must be gathered and used. It's often wasted, however, by those who think "marketing" is primarily for creating ads and sales programs and not for "product shaping." How do you apply marketing research?
All Designs Use Numbers
We live in a material world. So all plans and designs like written music scores,
lines drawn on paper, PR plans and ad budgets, story boards, etc., require information managment. "Æsthmetrics," means "the measure of beauty." We're confident, creative pros who can handle facts and complexity. Who would you trust with your marketing efforts?

After Apple-Picking
My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree
Toward heaven still,
And there's a barrel that I didn't fill . . .
My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree
Toward heaven still,
And there's a barrel that I didn't fill . . .
One night, not long after the disaster,
as our train was passing Astor,
the car door opened with a shudder . . .
New Year's morning—
everything is in blossom!
I feel about average. . . .
Some day, when trees have shed their leaves
And against the morning's white
The shivering birds beneath the eaves . . .
The best job I had was moving a stone
from one side of the road to the other.
This required a permit which required . . .
Ah! why, because the dazzling sun
Restored my earth to joy
Have you departed, every one, . . .
When I know you are coming home
I put on this necklace:
glass beads on a silken thread, . . .
Be perfect, make it otherwise.
Yesterday is torn in shreds.
Lightning's thousand sulfur eyes . . .
The Devil's tour of hell did not include
a factory line where molten lead
spilled into mouths held wide, . . .
This time I came to the starting place
with my best running shoes, and pure speed
held back for the finish, came with only love . . .

Comments about Hairy Maclary and Friends:
As with most audiobooks, my kids took a few "reads" to enjoy this series even though they knew most of the stories in book format. They now enjoy it and don't seem phased by the heavy Scottish accent (which took us by surprise, although it now just gives us a few chuckles and is pleasant enough to listen to in the car). Don't expect any jazzing up though as some other kids audio books have had (eg no music or theatrical effects).

TC TO JOHN A. CARLYLE; 19 July 1821; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18210719-TC-JAC-01; CL 1:370-374.
Edinr19th July 1821—
My dear Jack,
I got your letter1 about an hour ago as I was sitting down to tea; and read it with great avidity, finding it an excellent relish to that meal to hear so precise an account of persons who are always so dear to me, and of whom I have remained in considerable ignorance for several weeks. It is pity that the carrier disappointed you in regard to the letters you intended for me: but every human purpose, it has long been known, is liable to similar crosses; and in the present case there is less room for regret as I expect soon to have the felicity of ascending Bitty's2 stairs in person, and eliciting from you at greater length by word of mouth the whole class of matters which your pen could hardly suffice even to give a sketch of. I do not precisely know what week I shall be down; but it cannot easily be beyond the third or so from this date.
As to my health, which you inquire so affectionately after, it cannot be said to be perfect yet; but it has considerably improved of late. Sea-bathing I follow pretty diligently, and would more diligently follow it, were not the frith at such a distance, the roads so dusty and the days so hot. Of walking I have enough: indeed I think I am apt to err in excess in that particular; the last three days I have walked very little, and yet have not felt so whole for some months. I am going to ride continually when I get home; it is better than walking: and often as I have been baulked, I am not without hope of finding permanent benefit from the operation. At all events I must try: without some improvement in the constitution, I am as good as dead in the eye of law already; good for nothing but lolling about the room, reading poetry, imagining and fancying and fretting and fuming—all to no purpose earthly. I have studied none or written none for many days. Nevertheless I am moderately comfortable or even happy at present. My confidence in Fortune seems to increase as her offers to me diminish. I have very seldom been poorer than I am or more feeble or more solitary (if kindred minds form society); and yet I have at no time felt less disposition to knuckle to low persons, or to abate in any way of the stubborn purposes I have formed, or to swerve from the track—thorny and desolate as it is—which I have chosen for journeying thro' this world. I foresee much trouble before me, but there are joys too: and, joy or not joy, I must [go] forward now. When you launch a boat upon the falls of Niagara, it must go down the roaring cataract, tho' rocks and ruin lie within the profound abyss below: And just so if a man taste the magic cup of literature, he must drink of it forever, tho' bitter ingredients enough be mixed with the liquor. A good firm heart—and—observe this—sound health, will keep one up under any thing: therefore, Jack, I am of good cheer myself, and I bid thee be of good cheer likewise. What is there to fear, indeed? With health and liberty and the love of truth, poverty, if it must accompany, may be endured: and when a man 'goeth to his long home'3—whither he will soon go, it is a proud thing to go with a free and generous spirit, with 'thoughts that wander thro' eternity'4 and a heart that does not fear to follow them—or need not fear. What will the poor King5 they were crowning yesterday and shouting and jollifying about over all the empire, inherit of his lordships shortly. A coffin with gold nails, and some square yard of space within the cells of Windsor. Will the tears of good men moisten his pall? Will the memory of his name kindle one generous emotion in the mind of any living creature? Who envys him? The poorest peasant may work out for himself a far nobler destiny, if he please: the poorest peasant need not envy him. Go on then, my bold Tongleg, let nothing daunt thee! By firm and prudent conduct, thou wilt acquire respect and competence every way here, I doubt not; and for the Hereafter, these qualities are—useful also.
But I am preaching, when I should be recording or inquiring. I pray you therefore, by way of returning from my digression, most earnestly pray you Jack, to be careful of that inflammation6 which has so importunately visited you again. Do not work too hard, do not work at all, when you feel yourself uneasy at the task. Never mind progress; you are doing wonders in that respect already: be easy, I tell you, be easy. And do not too proudly look down upon the society you can find around you in Annan. Believe my sad experience, that is a sad error. I know well enough your comrades are 'a feeble folk'; but still they are a folk; and depend upon it, you will repent this gloomy seclusion of yourself from their accustomed haunts how barren and beaten soever—if you persist in it.7 There is no real happiness, Jack, out of the common routines of life. Happy he who can walk in them daily, and yet ever be casting his eye over the sublime scenery which solicits us from the far and elevated regions of philosophy! I have missed this rare combination, you observe, and I am paying for it. Do not you do likewise! Be social and frank and friendly with all honest persons: Practice will soon make it easy, and the reward is wholesome and abundant. Go out, I bid you, from the camera obscura of Bitty Geel; go out frequently, and talk—talk even with the Jurist, Fergusson, Irving or any of them.
When I get home, I am going to exhibit all this more at larg[e and] in more luminous order—appealing to myself, as I may well do: for proof experimental of a theory which I can so easily demonstrate a priori. Muster all your counter arguments before my appearance. And when will that be? So soon as I have got that beggarly article the Netherlands (for which I can find next to no materials) off my hands, and I began working at it some days since. Irving & I spoke of travelling by the west somewhere: we have not arranged it yet. But this Netherlands is the main bar; I have no pluck in me for such things at present—yet it must be clampered together in some shape, and shall if I keep wagging. Tell David Fergusson that I am charmed with his manuscript; it is the prettiest ever was written for the Encyclopedia, and perfectly correct. I shall give you enough to write in harvest—at present I have nothing.8
Tell Sandy how I am pressed for time, & how I cannot get written to him. I expect his long and long-looked-for letter by Farries. My Mother and my Father you do not mention particularly: I trust however they are well. Of the Former indeed I dare but trust so comparatively, I have got more acquainted with her past & present state, last winter than ever. Be kind to her I conjure you all.
They need hardly send me any thing in the box—I shall be off so soon. I want it merely to stow my luggage in. The fresh butter is done, the salt I cannot eat now—it is got musty. But there is good enough stuff to be had at hand, and I use little.— About my health I advise you to be under no concern: I have undoubtedly told you the very worst, perhaps something more. To look me in the face you would say nothing ailed me: and in fact what is it—but a given quantity of pain and obstruction, without any the least immediate danger.— My love to all at Mainhill, including Nancy9 our cousin if she be with you still. Adieu!
Your Affecte Brother, /
Thomas Carlyle.
