Check out this website for everything you need to know.
They are ideal for youngsters as one size fits all due to the absense of a rigid tree so no need to replace when she outgrows.
The downside can be unless you buy a mega bucks 'Ansur' they are rather unconventional looking ( I don't mind this) and do take a bit of getting used to. They are like riding bareback but with the security of a saddle and you feel the horses movement much more and they are able to use their back and shoulders much more freely than with a treed saddle.
These sites also have more info
One more thing - beware of cheaper alternatives...they are often poorly made and do not distribute your weight evenly, which is mega important due to lack of tree - You must also always use a pad designed for treeless saddles for this reason - again beware as some companies will say a polypad is okay but it isn't!
Who ever said money can't buy you happiness, didn't know where to buy a horse!

If you are going to go treeless then I would strongly advise that you "try before you buy". They can be very expensive and may not suit all. I tried a Heather Moffett "Phoenix" last year - it was a very comfy saddle for me and was beautifully made but it just didn't suit my horse - I experienced a lot of "movement" and when I lunged in it and AJ did his usual "wall of death" it finished up around his ears! I finished up having a Farrington WH saddle custom made for him at a cost of £750 which was a lot cheaper than the treeless and fits both him and me!

Join Recycle Utah for the 2nd annual Uncorked outdoor concert at the Recycle Utah center on Friday, July 12, from 6-10 p.m. It's local music to support a local cause! All proceeds will help fund glass recycling at Recycle Utah.
This evening delivers music by local favorites, Bryon Friedman & Band, and Take Five.
The Gateway Grille serves Summit County-beef sliders, Shades of Pale pours local beer, and Top Shelf will serve wine and spirits. "Five" is the theme of the evening: $5 entry, $5 meals, $5 drinks. It's a price you can't beat for some of Park City's finest!
In addition to celebrating local talent, Recycle Utah will get a much-needed boost to continue offering glass recycling to Summit County residents, since glass is not accepted in the curbside recycling bins. Instead of throwing your glass away, drop off your glass at Recycle Utah, conserve natural resources and landfill space. Recycle Utah accepts all four colors of glass: green, blue, brown, and clear. Glass is then recycled in Salt Lake City and Logan.
Recently, there has been an increasing demand for glass recycling in our community, yet it continues to be a low-value commodity. As a result, Recycle Utah is recycling more glass than ever, but at a high cost and with little return. Help our local, non-profit recycling center do what it does
best and come out for Uncorked.
Event details: Location - 1951 Woodbine Way in Park City. Parking - in adjacent lot thanks to Park City Mountain Resort. Show begins at 6pm. Entry is $5 at the door.

The Truth of the Matter
David Roche and Bob McKee (2012) Democrisis: Democracy Caused The Debt Crisis. Will It Survive It? An Independent Strategy Publication
Luuk van Middelaar (2013) The Passage to Europe: How A Continent Became A Union; Yale University Press
Winston Churchill noticed that: "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened". Each of these three books, sometimes intentionally or sometimes not, concern truths about our economic, social and political systems.
Stephen D. King (HSBC's Group Chief Economist) and Messrs. David Roche and Bon McKee (who run Independent Strategy, an economic consultancy) focus on the end of growth. Luuk van Middelaar (a political philosopher) writes about Europe, especially its politics. Economics Means & Ends
The economic memes underlying When The Money Runs Out and Democrisis are familiar if not universally accepted. Growth, historically, has been driven by population growth, opening up of new markets and improvements in productivity and innovation. In the later part of the twentieth century, growth was augmented by the use of debt to accelerate consumption directly. In addition, generous entitlement programs for some in many countries that were not fully funded or financed by borrowing boosted consumption indirectly as citizens spent more, assuming their heath care and aging needs as well as education expenses of their children would be met by the state or other means.
States too indulged in Ponzi Finance to fund these promises and, in some instances, spending programs. Global imbalances were an integral part of this process. The Global Financial Crisis exposed the weakness of this model – its Minsky moment, as some termed it. When The Money Runs Out and Democrisis provide solid if unremarkable narratives of the causes and history of the crisis. Both conclude that the rapid growth and increase in prosperity was probably extraordinary, mistakenly assumed by citizens and policy makers as the new normal rather than an anomaly caused by a favourable confluence of events.
In When The Money Runs Out, Mr. King fails to acknowledge the role of bankers and banking in the problems, preferring to see them as mere "scapegoats" and the crisis as more complicated. Recent disclosures of internal conversations at failed Irish lender Anglo-Irish point to the toxic culture of banks and their insidious part in events, both leading up to and after the start of the crisis. Critics have pointed to Mr. King's day job as perhaps one reason for the uncharacteristic diffidence in relation to bankers. The Way Out?
With growth likely to be slow and societies having promised themselves entitlements which are unaffordable, at least without a major reorganisation of the social and economic structure, the question is what comes next. Mr. King takes the view that there is no real solution and a Japan like stagnation is likely. The cure also is increasingly ineffective, as the major economies have become "stimulus junkies".
Mr. King argues that the better way of dealing with the problem might have been the course pursued by South Korea and various South-East Asian economies in the Asian monetary crisis of 1997-1998. A Mellon-like cathartic liquidation (massive currency devaluation, bankruptcies, banking failures and (hopefully) short lived collapse in economic activity as well as a large reduction in living standards) may have restored the health of the economies.
This view is simplistic ignoring key differences. These economies were smaller, (in some cases) a lot of the debt foreign and a favourable external environment creating demand for exports. It also underestimates the unbelievable hardship for the less fortunate that resulted.
Talking about the human effects of the Asian crisis, a friend once told me of being in Indonesia during the Asian financial crisis. Fluent in Bahasa Indonesian, he overheard a conversation one night in the streets outside the hotel where he was staying. It was a family, a father, mother and two daughters. The discussion was about who was going to prostitute themselves that night to feed the family.
Mr. King does not address the social or political dimensions of the economic problems other than superficially.
Curiously, given his view that there is no real solution and his doubts about the effectiveness of policy tools, Mr. King ends his book with a series of luke-warm and unpromising proposals – free labour movement, European fiscal union and central bank targeting of economic growth and higher inflation. The political issues, especially redistribution of wealth and resources, and the acute differences between different countries are ignored.
The title and subtitle of Mr. King's book are puzzling. The money clearly cannot run out as central banks and policy makers can and have resorted to the electronic version of the ancient printing presses.
The end of Western affluence assumes that non-Western nations will be unaffected. Given that Western markets and investment are important drivers of emerging markets, it is difficult to see how collateral damage can be avoided.
Given that emerging nations have large investments in Western economics through their central banking reserves or sovereign fund portfolios which are now at risk, it is difficult to see how contagion is avoidable.
Democrisis' thesis is that without economic growth, the massive expansion of public and private debt is unsustainable. This instability is economic but ultimately social and political, requiring behavioural changes in both citizens and leaders and re-writing of the social contract. Democrisis discriminates between the position of different economies such as the US, Europe, Japan, China and other emerging nations which face similar but slightly different challenges.
Messrs. David Roche and Bon McKee are refreshingly clear eyed about the effects of current policies, which cannot restore economic growth but also have deleterious side effects, damaging not only to the economy but the foundations of the social and political system, ultimately undermining democracy.
Reverse Causality
When The Money Runs Out and Democrisis assume that causality runs from the economy to society/ politics. The Passage to Europe suggests that social and political systems may be the cause of the problems, at least in Europe. Dr. van Middelaar, perhaps unintentionally, shows the economic problems of Europe are not really economic problems at all but the inevitable and insoluble outcome of deeply flawed political processes.
The Passage to Europe is really two separate books, untidily stuck together.
The better book describes the development of the European Union and the politics of the project. It usefully and insightfully chronicles the internal battles and curious events that shaped the history of the Union (the early 1960s the European Court of Justice that established the supremacy of European law; the story of de Gaulle's the veto; the Luxembourg compromise; and the background to the individual institutions such as the European Council of heads of government, the EU Commission and the European Parliament).
The second book is a more academic work of tentative political philosophising, reflecting Dr Van Middelaar background and work for Herman Van Rompuy, president of the European Council and occasional composer of haiku poetry. Dr.Van Middelaar argues that Europe consists of a series of concentric circles of influence: the Brussels and EU institutions; member countries and national governments; and non-EU Europe. He argues that the tension between these layers and the need for complex stratagems to resolve them, unsurprisingly, creates problems.
The following exchange about Europe in the UK TV series Yes Minister argued the same position with more wit:
Sir Humphrey: Minister, Britain has had the same foreign policy objective for at least the last five hundred years: to create a disunited Europe. In that cause we have fought with the Dutch against the Spanish, with the Germans against the French, with the French and Italians against the Germans, and with the French against the Germans and Italians. Divide and rule, you see. Why should we change now, when it's worked so well? Hacker: That's all ancient history, surely? Sir Humphrey: Yes, and current policy. We 'had' to break the whole thing [the EEC] up, so we had to get inside. We tried to break it up from the outside, but that wouldn't work. Now that we're inside we can make a complete pig's breakfast of the whole thing: set the Germans against the French, the French against the Italians, the Italians against the Dutch. The Foreign Office is terribly pleased; it's just like old times. Hacker: But surely we're all committed to the European ideal? Sir Humphrey: [chuckles] Really, Minister. Hacker: If not, why are we pushing for an increase in the membership? Sir Humphrey: Well, for the same reason. It's just like the United Nations, in fact; the more members it has, the more arguments it can stir up, the more futile and impotent it becomes.
Unintentional Clarity
The Passage to Europe provides probably unintended insights into the European problem. Any institution which can produce a 40 page document of how the EU flag and associated insignia should be displayed is of considerable ethnographic interest. In one respect, Dr Van Middelaar is right: Europe is a "word factory".
But there are deeper revelations. The book reveals that the European project is a solution in search of the right problem to resolve. It reveals a lack of fundamental agreement between the nations, national governments and individual peoples about the basic idea of Europe. It reveals a deep seated desire of handsomely remunerated and largely redundant European politicians, bureaucrats and related acolytes to perpetuate themselves and preserve and expand their power and privileges. It reveals a political, intellectual and academic elite which is completely out of touch with and indifferent to the ordinary man and woman in any member nation. Only in Europe, unlike other polities, these are the core ideas of Europe.
Implicit in The Passage to Europe is the fact that everyone wants Europe a la carte, selecting the choice bits available from the menu and leaving the paying of the bill or the problems of cleaning up to someone else. Europe is what anyone at any time wants it to be and can coerce, convince or cajole other parties to accept.
For most citizens in member nations, Europe and the EU are largely irrelevant to everyday life. The people most interested and engaged are special interest groups seeking to capitalise on its generous endowments and subsidies.
While written before the European debt crisis, the book does not discuss in any detail the EU's economic underpinnings– free markets, common currency - or its current difficulties. But its inadvertent revelation of the European process and pre-occupations allows an interested reader to extrapolate the likely evolution of the crisis.
Whilst not explicitly stated or implied by Dr Van Middelaar, a non-European reader would reach a depressing conclusion about Europe's financial and political future. It is best captured by a quintessential European literary work - Dante Alighieri's 14th-century poem Divine Comedy and the inscription on the gate of Hell: "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate" usually translated as "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here".
A Matter of Style
Mr. King and Messrs. David Roche and Bon McKee write simply and directly, targeting the ordinary reader. Democrisis has the added benefit of brevity, encompassing around 100 pages.
The Passage to Europe relies on techniques of deconstruction and semiotic analysis, owing much to Jacques Derrida and Roland Barthes. Even allowing for the translation from its original Dutch, the writing often embraces, for at least this reviewer, a European high cultural and intellectual tradition, where comprehensibility must be sacrificed, meaning avoided and clarity feared. Frequently, the reader pines for even one of Herman van Rompuy's poems, such as the one on Brussels: "Different colours, tongues, towers and gods. I search my way".
These three books, each in their own very different and sometimes elliptical way, reveal a little of the truth of the matter. A reviewer of When The Money Runs Out noted that the author was an uber pessimist. By implication, the fact and arguments in the book were simply not true. Better to rely on mindless optimism.
But as Winston Churchill once observed: "There are a terrible lot of lies going around the world, and the worst of it is half of them are true.'

Harry flees number four Privet Drive, is picked up by the Knight Bus
Aug 7
early morning, just before dawn, the Knight Bus deposits Harry outside of The Leaky Cauldron
August 6, 1993 (Evening) to early morning of August 7th
Harry drags his trunk and Hedwig's cage for several streets before he stops in Magnolia Crescent. Harry then panics as he realizes he's stranded, with nowhere to go, he had no Muggle money and very little wizarding money left, with a likelihood that he'll be expelled from Hogwarts. Harry fears he'll be arrested or made an outcast from the wizarding world.
Harry realizes he still had his wand in his hand and starts to form a plan as to how to get to London. He believes or thinks that if he bewitches his trunk to make it feather-light, ties it to his broomstick, covers himself with his invisibility cloak, he could take out his fortune from Gringott's bank and start his life as an outlaw. Harry opens up his trunk; starts to search then stops, when a funny prickling on his neck makes him feel he's being watched.
Harry crouches over at his trunk again, stops, senses but can't see anything, lights his wand to see the outline of something very big, with wide, gleaming eyes. Harry trips over his trunk when he tries to get a better view, falls, wand flies out of his hand as he uses arm to break fall, lands in gutter.
There's a deafening bang and bright light as Harry rolls out of gutter, just as a giant triple-decker purple bus halts in the spot Harry fell. Gold lettering over the windshield spells The Knight Bus.
A young conductor in a purple uniform steps out and introduces himself as Stan Shunpike. Stan asks what Harry's looking at (the dog no longer being there), Harry replies "There's was a big black thing, like a dog-but massive-" (Page 34) pointing uncertainly.
Stan starts to notice Harry's scar, Harry covers it. When Stan asks for his name, Harry replies Neville Longbottom. Changing the subject, Harry asks about the Bus, Stan mentions that the Bus can go anywhere on land, still suspicious as to if Harry really flagged them down. Harry pays Eleven Sickles, gets on. Stan takes Harry's trunk and Hedwig's cage and loads it on.
Harry notices there's no seats on the bus, only beds beside curtained windows with candles burning in brackets. Harry is introduced to the driver, Ernie Prang, an elderly wizard with thick glasses. The Bus is off with a bang. Stan mentions they are somewhere in Wales. Madam Marsh, a motion-sickened witch dressed in a traveling cloak, is let off in Abergavenny.
Stan opens a copy of the Daily Prophet and reads. Harry notices the photograph on the front cover of the same man mentioned on the Muggle news, Harry comments about this. "Sirius Black", Stan explains as Harry reads the paper. Article mentions Black as the most infamous prisoner to be held in the Azkaban fortress, that he's still eluding capture. Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge has told the Muggle prime Minister of the crisis. Muggles have been told he's carrying a gun. The Article mentions a massacre twelve years earlier when Black killed thirteen people with a single curse.
Harry observes that Black looks like a vampire, hands the paper back to Stan, Harry comments about Black murdering thirteen people as Stan explains it was done in broad daylight, in front of witnesses. Stan adds that Black was a big supporter of You-Know-Who, until Harry Potter defeated him.
Stan mentions that most of Voldemort's supporters were rounded up. Black thought he'd be second in command when Voldemort took power. Stan mentions that when Black was cornered in the middle of the street full of muggles, Black blasted half the street apart. Then stood laughing as he was taken away by Ministry of magic reinforcements, Ernie adds the point that Ministry covered it up explaining it as a gas explosion.
Stan mentions that there's never been a breakout from Azkaban before, it's not known how Black did it. Harry worries about being sent to Azkaban while the Bus continues to travel. Stan tries to give him some hot chocolate that spills on his feather bed, while they travel from Anglesea to Alerdeen. Wizards depart the Bus as it grows lighter outside. When asked, Harry tells Stan to take him to Diagon Alley. Thundering along Charing Cross Road, they eventually stop at the Leaky Cauldron.
While getting off the bus, Harry runs right into the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge. Harry recognizes him from his previous sighting the year before (CS14). Fudge marches Harry into the pub while Stan and Ernie follow with his trunk and cage; both beaming over discovering it was Harry. Tom, the wizened, toothless landlord, appears with a lantern as Fudge escorts Harry to a small parlor, Tom lights a fire, then leaves.
Fudge has Harry sit, butters a crumpet for Harry, informs him that two members of the Accidental Magic Reversal Department have been dispatched to Privet Drive, Marjorie Dursley has been punctured and her memory modified, she has no recollection of the incident. Harry is stunned as Fudge informs him that the Dursley's agree to take Harry back next summer if he agrees to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas and Easter, Harry is baffled and grows suspicious of these developments.
While Fudge is suggesting that Harry take a room at the Leaky Cauldron for the three weeks left of his holiday, Harry interrupts, asking about his punishment. Harry reminds him that he broke the Decree for the Restriction of Underage Wizardry. This doesn't tally with Harry's past dealings with the Ministry.
Harry reminds Fudge of the incident with the house-elf (Dobby) smashing a pudding, (CS2) That he'd be expelled from Hogwarts if there was another incident. "Circumstances change, Harry-." Fudge replies while looking awkward. Fudge seems unusually relieved that Harry is safe.
Fudge steps out and reappears with Tom who informs him that Room Eleven is available. Fudge asks Harry to not go wandering off into Muggle London, keep to Diagon Alley, and be back at the Cauldron before dark each night. Tom is to keep an eye on Harry for Fudge.
Before Fudge leaves, Harry, remembering the permission form, asks Fudge if he could sign it. Looking uncomfortable, Fudge flatly says no. After shaking hands, Fudge leaves, while Tom beaming at Harry, takes him to his room, up a wooden staircase to a door with a brass number on it. Harry finds a comfortable bed, highly polished oak furniture and a fire. Hedwig is already perched on the wardrobe when Harry enters. Tom bows and leaves.
Harry strokes Hedwig as he looks out the window from his bed, the sun rises, and Harry falls asleep.

Ryan Grant is the first Green Wave player drafted by the Washington Redskins since Patrick Ramsey in 2002.
May 10, 2014
NEW ORLEANS - Tulane University star wide receiver Ryan Grant was selected in the fifth round (142nd overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft today by the Washington Redskins.
"This is a wonderful feeling because the entire draft process has been a little overwhelming but I am excited to be a Washington Redskin and I am glad for the opportunity the organization has given me," Grant said. "I had no idea what team might draft me, but we got the call from Washington and I am happy to be a Redskin. It will be great to be on the same team and catch passes from a quarterback like Robert Griffin III."
A 6-1, 191-pound native of Beaumont, Texas, Grant was a four-year letterwinner and two-year starter who started 31 of 47 career games. He completed his career with 196 receptions for 2,769 yards (14.13 avg.) and 21 touchdowns. In the Tulane career record book, he finished in fifth-place all alone with most career receptions in school history, fifth in career receiving yards with 2,769, third in 100-yard games (12), tied for sixth in touchdown receptions (21) and 10th in yards per reception (14.13 avg.).
During the 2013 campaign, he started 12 of 13 contests and earned Conference USA first team honors for the second straight season after leading the team in receptions (77), receiving yards (1,039), receiving touchdowns (9), all-purpose yards (1,039) and he ranked third on the team in points (54). He logged three 100-plus yards receiving games and finished with a career-best 14 receptions for 187 yards and added two touchdowns in the season opener against Jackson State.
Grant caught at least one pass in his final 33 games and produced multiple catch outings in his final 18 contests. Along with his 2013 receiving total, he also finished with 1,149 yards in 2012 and became the first Tulane player to record consecutive 1,000-yard seasons since All-American Marc Zeno pulled off the feat three straight times from 1985-87.
Grant participated in the 2014 NFL Scouting Combine and also in the Reese's Senior Bowl Game.
"I could not be happier for Ryan Grant," Tulane head coach Curtis Johnson said. "He is a terrific young man with a solid work ethic and I know he will work hard for the Redskins. Ryan was a do-it-all receiver for us over the last two seasons and played a big part of our success this past year. I looked forward to seeing big things from him as a professional player."
Grant is the first Tulane player taken in the NFL Draft since offensive tackle Troy Kropog, who was selected in the fourth round (135th overall) in 2009 by the Tennessee Titans, and is the first Green Wave wide receiver to be selected in the Draft since Roydell Williams was a fourth-round selection (136th overall) by the Titans in 2005.
The last time the Redskins selected a Tulane player in the draft was in 2002 when the franchise made former TU quarterback Patrick Ramsey a first round selection (32nd overall).
Grant was the first receiver and fifth offensive player selected by Washington in the 2014 Draft, joining a pair of offensive linemen in Morgan Moses (OT; Virginia), Spencer Long (OG; Nebraska), Lache Seastrunk (RB; Baylor) and Ted Bolser (TE; Indiana).

For video game enthusiasts who can't stand the thought of playing a racing game on a single television screen, using a standard controller and (gasp!) sitting on a couch, there are plenty of realistic racing simulators out there. While better simulators usually include a trio of monitors, a racing chair and appropriate steering wheel and pedals, Costco has what could be the ultimate racing simulator for Formula One fans in the UK with deep pockets and a desire for a life-like gaming experience.

Here at GSNI-M we are lucky to have FOUR awesome outdoor properties! Summer Camp 2013 kicks off June 16th, and we're all very excited for the fun to begin. Visit our Summer Camp page and check out all the great sessions we're offering this year.
If you've never been able to check out all our properties read the profiles below, and hopefully you'll be able to visit us soon to see them for yourself.
Camp Ella J. Logan is located on Dewart Lake in Syracuse IN. It is comprised of 200 acres of woods, meadows, ravines, and natural wetlands with approximately 3750 feet of lakeshore. In addition to the wonderful opportunities provided by the lake, the council owns an island appropriately named Girl Scout Island that often provides a challenging swimming adventure for the camp's better swimmers. The camp is open year-round and provides a variety of possibilities, including summer resident camp programs. Troops looking for exciting outdoor or camping opportunities can spend a day, a night, or a weekend at Camp Ella J. Logan, too. Camp Ella J. Logan is proud to be accredited by the American Camp Association.
Camp Agnes S. McMillen includes 103 acres of wooded ravines, meadows, and trails in northern Allen County in northeast Indiana. This property offers many different levels of outdoor experience, from Cedar Creek Cabin and the Friendship House, modern climate controlled troop houses to screened platform tent/cabins providing a more primitive experience. There are numerous hiking trails throughout the property. One favorite hiking destination is a sycamore tree on the banks of Cedar Creek thought to be the second largest in the state of Indiana. Unique to this property is the climbing tower and zipline as well as an extensive low ropes course. The Gathering Center is a dining facility that seats 250 and can provide indoor programming space for inclement weather as well as meeting space for larger groups. This site serves throughout the summer as a day camp. They enjoy cookouts, nature activities, and utilizing the climbing tower and zipline. Camp Agnes S. McMillen is proud to be accredited by the American Camp Association.
Camp Soni Springs was purchased by the Northern Indiana Girl Scout Council in 1959 and is located in Berrien County approximately four miles southwest of Three Oaks MI. The name Soni is an acronym for Scouts of Northern Indiana, the Girl Scout council that founded the camp. Camp Soni Springs has 156 acres including 72 acres of open land and 84 wooded acres. A branch of the Little Galien River runs through the camp. A small artificially made lake, Lake Mary, on the property is perfect for swimming and small craft, especially for younger girls as it is well protected from wind. One unique feature of the camp is the small island, called Skippers Island with a Tree House that overlooks the lake.
Camp Wildwood, adjacent to the Dunbar Service Center in Logansport, Indiana, is a 40-acre wooded property. It offers primitive overnight camping as well as year-round overnight lodging for troops. Three recently developed new interpretive trails within the wetlands at Camp Wildwood offer girls the opportunity to hike these trails and other trails that lead to the bird blind. A well-developed circular trail (circuit) through a section of this property features outdoor exercise equipment, which can be great fun and a real challenge to try.

Enrollment for Black Rep's Summer Camp of the Arts begins now. The camp will run from June 23rd to -August 18th from 7 AM to 6 PM! Each year working parents have the joy and relief of the Black Rep holding a camp that brings a full day of crafts, arts and dancing, singing and acting, and oh yes-lunch! Dr. Mona Scott was recently acknowledged by Ismael Reed for this consistent outstanding contribution to the community and children of Berkeley Oakland. The summer camp adds to the lives of the children, fills their summer with an array of actors and artist who work with the children to introduce them to the fun of theater, and the discoveries they make of their own talents and skills encouraged by the process of the theater.
Registration is encouraged now, and has begun. Black Rep is located directly across from Ashby BART. "Extremely affordable for the working parents that need extended care," the Black Rep Summer Camp staff are available to talk to you about what to expect in this great summer theater experience for all children.
CALL for information and to reserve a spot for your child. 510 652-2120
415 678-0100
Children will be trained in dramatic arts with performances daily. A documentary on the camp will provide an introduction to the children of film making with training in stage and prop management. July 15th through August 15th on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, there will have shows at 10 AM and 1 PM. The public is invited to the performances of "Princess and the Frog." Field trips are encouraged.
Faye Carol has spoken of her participation in Black Reps Summer Camp of the arts, and the value to the community of artists who participate in the children's summer programs. "Everybody can Sing," is Faye's message to the world, and she sees the opportunity to have children find their voice as a contribution through experiences that allow their creativity and natural enthusiasm to shine. A performing artist, she is known for supporting the Oakland school for the Arts, and the Jazz Choir, but enjoys her summer with the kids at the Black Rep when her schedule permits.
Each summer children at the Black Rep Summer Camp experience a connection of care from this community, and an experience of their own creativity enhanced and inspired by Mona Scott, Vaughn Scott and the community of artists who make up the camp.

Blake Lively Pregnant After Wedding?
Blake Lively could be pregnant, speculates the New York Post.
The newspaper claims "rumors are rife" on the "Gossip Girl" set that the actress "could be expecting her first child" with Ryan Reynolds, whom Lively quietly married earlier this month.
According to the sources for the Post, Lively is "glowing" and eating more than usual.
"Blake is usually really careful about what she eats, but since her wedding, she seems to be eating a lot more," claims a "spy," adding, "Everyone on set is on bump-watch."
RELATED – Blake Lively Shows Off Massive Wedding Ring (PHOTO)
Maybe they should be paying attention to Gossip Cop instead.
Because as we already confirmed when Star magazine ran similar rumors last week, Lively is NOT pregnant.
A rep tells Gossip Cop the pregnancy reports are "completely untrue."

So what are the ingredients of success for those who leap into a field in which they lack direct experience? For one thing, it can help to be a woman. Harvard's Groysberg has studied the "portability" of skills, using a sample set of financial professionals. He found that even in moves between familiar settings, there tends to be a dip in performance as executives figure out things like "where the bodies are buried," in his words. But there is an interesting caveat: "The dip is only applicable to men," he says. "Star women do really well when they move."
One reason for women's exceptional resilience may be that they know how to build connections outside their firms, as when Kotchka reached out to the larger design world. "What I find is not that men and women build franchises differently because of innate differences," says Groysberg. "Instead, women become more portable because they've faced institutional barriers." In the financial industry, for example, women historically "found themselves unemployed faster than men" and missed benefits like the sharing of information in informal settings. Since resources and allies were harder to find, the women who succeeded had looked for them beyond the next cubicle. Says Groysberg: "Most women at the top are survivors." Or as McGovern interprets it, "Never turn down the job no one else wants. You'll learn a lot, and if you're not challenged, you're not growing."

June 11, 2014
By Stephen Trembley
FRESNO, Calif. --- The journey from a productive collegiate career to the professional hardwood is taking shape for former Fresno State standout guard Tyler Johnson with an elite workout schedule and opportunities to show NBA teams his basketball and leadership skills.
Johnson worked out for the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday, and he also has workouts scheduled with the Miami Heart on Saturday and the Los Angeles Lakers later this month.
"Tyler is working with an opportunity of a lifetime," Fresno State head coach Rodney Terry said. "Based on what he has done during his time here and after the season, he has put himself in a position to have a bright future playing professionally."
Johnson, who finished his Bulldog career this past spring as the No. 16 scorer on the program's all-time scoring list, steadily improved throughout his four-year college career in nearly every statistical category and also as a team leader.
He helped lead Fresno State back to the postseason for the first time since 2007 as one of the best all-around players in the tough Mountain West Conference - bringing a tenacious approach to each possession, a deadly stroke on mid-range shots and beyond the 3-point arc, and an aggressive, but smart rebounding presence from the backcourt.
As a senior this past season, Johnson gave the 'Dogs a veteran presence for a squad that stared adversity in the face throughout the year and finished as one of the last six teams playing in the country. Johnson kept his foot on the pedal during the College Basketball Invitational to close out the year - averaging 15.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and a steal per game during the six postseason games. In reaching the CBI Championship Series, the Bulldogs played its longest season in school history.
The chance to play in the CBI was earned largely because of Johnson's work ethic and how that made his teammates better. Even after his freshman season included a coaching change from Steve Cleveland to Rodney Terry, Johnson remained focused on doing whatever he could to help the team win games and that started with his personal development.
While at Fresno State, Johnson made it a point to be the first in the gym and last to leave - especially under the guidance of Terry and his staff for the past three years. The culture of accountability and relentless preparation for execution at the highest level brought out the best in Johnson.
Over the last few months, he has used that same mentality as he played in the Portsmouth Invitational and helped lead his team of college seniors to a title. Johnson has also spent a considerable amount of time working out in Florida with a trainer and already has an opportunity to play overseas, but he wants to first show the NBA why he is ready to play at that level.
Whether it is a chance to play in the NBA Summer League or earn more opportunities to meet with NBA teams, Johnson is excited about playing professionally and knows what he learned at Fresno State will be an important source of knowledge throughout his career.
"Catch The Wave!" -- The flagship radio stations for Fresno State men's basketball are 940 AM ESPN Radio and ESPN Deportes 1600 AM.

If we want to have code reviews before a developer delivers his work, then can you suggest whether multi stream project { i.e., each developer create his own stream and view and later deliver to single stream.} or single stream { i.e., all developers work on same stream } which is advisable.
migrated from stackoverflow.com Jul 12 '11 at 14:55
This question came from our site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
Multi-stream project is fine, and provide natural isolation through branching.
However, it doesn't scale well and force developer to multiple merges if they need to get the work of their colleagues.
That being said, I prefer this model when each stream represents a development effort, and not a developer (even though you still can match one developer to said development effort): see this answer for more.

This is a collection of photographs of European vehicles that were taken by my husband and I during several vacations. We were traveling with our young son who exclaimed over every car and truck and so we decided to document the variety of vehicles and make a picture book for him.
I am a book designer and have been making books for over 10 years. I have designed interiors and covers for at least 100 trade books ranging from novels and anthologies to books about politics, sports, and travel.

Chinese scholars will benefit from easier access to more accurate, standardized records of rare Chinese materials. The University of Chicago Library is a key participant in an international project to improve access and cataloging for Chinese rare books. Chicago has contributed records for over 500 rare Chinese editions (in more than 7,300 volumes), as well as provided leadership for the creation of international cataloging guidelines and standards for rare Chinese materials.
The University of Chicago Library is a charter member of the Research Libraries Group's (RLG) pioneering project to create an international union catalog of rare Chinese books. When the current phase of the RLG Chinese Rare Books Project ended earlier this year, nearly 7,500 entries for rare materials had been created in RLIN, RLG's electronic bibliographic database. These records were contributed by thirteen North American libraries, five Chinese libraries, and two libraries in Europe, and make accessible bibliographic data and location information for rare materials that were previously only cataloged locally. Project participants have thus helped to provide for the first time standardized, uniform access to information about dispersed copies of rare Chinese books and bound manuscripts held by major collections in North American and Canada.
Since the Project's beginnings in 1988, the University of Chicago Library has contributed 276 electronic records to RLIN, representing about 30% of the Library's Chinese rare book holdings. With about 1,000 titles, Chicago's Chinese rare book collection ranks among the top five in North America. It is especially rich in Confucian classics, generally regarded as the best outside of China, and contains a few extremely rare if not unique copies. Although the majority of the rare titles already appeared in the East Asian Collection's 8-volume printed catalog (1973), our participation in the Chinese Rare Books Project highlights Chicago's collection to a much broader public, and gives the Library the chance to reexamine these rare items as well. Approximately 500 rare Chinese editions published between 1645 and 1796 were moved from the general stacks to the East Asian Rare Books Collection in late 1994.
Another major component of the Project has been the creation of cataloging guidelines for Chinese rare materials, which established a North American standard for bibliographic description of and access to these materials. The Library is pleased that Tai-loi Ma, Curator of the East Asian Collection, has played a crucial role in the formation of these guidelines, which reconcile rules that have general applicability to rare Western materials with Chinese cataloging standards. The Project engaged an International Advisory Committee to draft the guidelines, a group which included Mr. Ma, T.H. Tsien (Professor Emeritus, Dept. of East Asian Language and Civilization and Graduate Library School; and Curator Emeritus, East Asian Library), and faculty and librarians from institutions such as the National Palace Museum in Taipei, the Shanghai Library, Peking University, Indiana University, Columbia University, Princeton University, and the Library of Congress. A bilingual edition of the "Cataloging Guidelines for Creating Chinese Rare Book Records in Machine-Readable Form" will be published shortly, and will serve as an important tool for the East Asian Library community and strong foundation for subsequent phases of the project. The Library will resumed participation in the Project when it began a new phase in early 1997.
For more information, contact Tai-loi Ma, Curator, East Asian Collection, at 702-8436 or firstname.lastname@example.com">firstname.lastname@example.com.

Well, we are starting to get our annual Victorian Christmas event together at the O'Dell House Museum. Tomorrow morning I am off to the woods to collect fir boughs, beech leaves and club mosses so our volunteers can make decorations. I have been busy for the last week hiding some of our normal museum displays so that Christmas favorites can come back out. For some reason something seemed missing.
That something hit me like a ton of bricks when I woke up this morning. Actually, it hit me like a boot full of snow when I stepped outside. Yes, snow has indeed returned to Annapolis Royal.
I was up early today because I was carpooling to a workshop with Trish Fry, the Manager of the Annapolis Royal Historic Gardens. Our presenters were hearty sorts from Manitoba and Northern Ontario so a bit of snow wasn't going to scare them off. When I arrived in town, the streets of Annapolis Royal were quiet as only a few shovellers had made their way to the curb. I was even able to step out into the middle of St. George Street to take a picture without fear of being run down.
The gentle wind had left enough snow on the plants at the Gardens to make for some fairly dramatic pictures. A new season always makes for some interesting photography opportunities. Thankfully, I had a chance to snap a few quick pictures as Trish was gathering up some material to bring with us. Perhaps this will give me some material for the Gardens' photo contest next summer.
Hopefully we will not have too many problems collecting what we need for Victorian Christmas decorating tomorrow. The fir boughs should be easy to get but I fear that most of the club moss will be buried under about a foot of snow.
All for now,

Julie Bryce
Associate Professor of Geochemistry - Italy
Elizabeth Pettitt '15 sampling lavas in the Dolomites
(Photo credit: Ms. Kimberly Aviado, NRESS Ph.D. student)
Thanks in part to the support of a CIE International Development award I was able to visit colleagues at the University of Ferrara in advance of a meeting of geochemists in nearby Florence in August 2013. I first met the Ferrara-based scientists at a geochemical meeting four years prior and learned of their extensive collection of mantle xenoliths from several volcanic provinces where I have worked the last two decades. Thanks in large part to international development grants and being based in nearby France for my sabbatical I have been able to visit Ferrara three times now. Our interactions are not only limited to those visits. The UNH geochemistry group has hosted three Ph.D. students and one postdoctoral scientist from Ferrara, and two UNH students, NRESS Ph.D. student Ms. Kim Aviado and Ms. Elizabeth Pettitt (BS, Geology, expected in 2015), are visiting Ferrara this summer working with colleagues.
The perfect jet lag eliminator and kickstarter
for paper writing with colleagues in Ferrara
(must be ordered before 11 AM)
The famous Castello Estense in Ferrara, Italy
My first task in Ferrara was to get rid of jet lag, best handled with a savory dinner of the famous cappellacci di zucca and (after the early morning wakeup) a cappuccino. I learned on my first visit to Ferrara that one does not apparently have cappuccino after 11 AM (a more generous cutoff time than in other places that have earlier cappuccino cutoff times). Excellent cuisine and lessons in cappuccino drinking aside, my main motivation to visit my colleagues in Ferrara centers around one word: mantle. Earth's mantle is its large rocky layer that extends beneath the crust on which we stand down to Earth's metallic core. The group I visit in Ferrara are world experts in studying xenoliths, "strange rocks" brought up in lava flows, plucked from deep part of Earth's rocky lithosphere as magma, "underground lava," rises to the surface. These samples provide important information about the geological and chemical processes that long ago formed Earth's lithosphere, the rocky shell that extends from Earth's surface, through the crust and includes part of the underlying mantle that makes up the jigsaw plate pieces that participate in plate tectonics. Xenoliths also bear testimony that can be used to reconstruct more recent processes that have led to volcanism in volcanically active regions. During my visit in August we finalized and submitted one manuscript on our earlier studies and continued discussions and sketched out a manuscript on the results of work Mr. Paolo Sgualdo, a University of Ferrara Ph.D. student, carried out in the UNH geochemistry lab. The trip also provided a means to initiate new projects to gain insight into processes driving volcanism. Ms. Aviado is working on a new project to elucidate mechanisms of rifting in East Africa, and thanks to the support of an IROP from the Hamel Center, Ms. Pettitt is taking the lead on a new project on lavas and xenoliths in the Veneto Volcanic Province, a region of volcanism extending to the backside of the mountains framing Lago di Garda. We are excited to get Ms. Aviado and Ms. Pettitt back to UNH and study their samples on a new instrument we are installing this summer, host our next Ferrara visitor this fall, revise Mr. Sgualdo's submitted manuscript and continue our collaborations exchanging future excellent UNH and University of Ferrara students.

Well it seems that we are not clear of the snow and winter storms just yet. We got spoiled there for a bit here in Salt Lake with beautiful no-coat-weather but it was just Mother Nature teasing us again.
Yet, the moisture is appreciated even though it's coming in the form of snow and drives us indoors once again.
It is days like today that we wish we could sit in the glow of a warm fireplace with a warm beverage in hand snuggled in a fuzzy blanket.
Chances are that because it is the middle of the work week we are only going to be able to day dream about this, but since we live in a virtual inspired world anyway, we thought we would give you some stunning fireplace eye candy to look at.
We designers are in the business of making the functional look aesthetically pleasing, so with so many types and styles of fireplaces to suite every taste we cannot limit the design options to only a few.
That is why along with our slide show inspiration we have included our pinterest come sit by the fire board with ideas for every taste. It doesn't matter if your style is contemporary, rustic or traditional. There is a fireplace to reflect your personal style…as well as so many incredible fireplaces that haven't been designed yet.
Do enjoy, and stay warm out there folks!

Caligari Ships TrueSpace6
New modeling and editing functions include color-coded layers that make creating complex models easier. Users can hide, lock, merge, name, color, and copy layers, or manage them by painting layers in the product's new Scene Editor. This last feature represents a combination of six TrueSpace editors from the previous version-objects, hierarchies, keyframes, function curves, layers, and audio-that is meant to provide users with faster and more flexible ways of viewing and organizing scenes and objects. Version 6 also comes with an upgraded Unwrapper and UV Editor, NURBS modeling enhancements, and improvements to chamfers and fillets, array tools, and deformation tools. Other new features include an updated facial animation tool with a library of heads, a new physics module for more accurate simulation, and the LightWorks 6.6 rendering engine.
TrueSpace requires an AMD- or Pentium-based system with 64mb of RAM running Windows 95/ 98/ME/NT/2000/XP. In addition to the main modeling and animation package, TrueSpace also sells companion packages with third-party plug-ins, libraries, and standalone applications for animation, special effects, design, and presentation.
