Centenarians are more likely to have causes of death certified as pneumonia and frailty
People aged 100 years or over are a rapidly growing demographic group worldwide in 2011, there were 317,000 centenarians worldwide. It is estimated that this number will increase to 3,224,000 by 2050, reaching 17,795,000 at the end of the century. In the United Kingdom, the number of centenarians has steadily increased since 1956 with numbers roughly doubling every 10 years and estimated to reach over half a million by 2066.
Studies are limited when it comes considering the explicit health and social care needs of centenarians compared to younger cohorts of older people or the implications of extreme longevity for policy and service delivery.
In this population-based observational study, researchers from King's College London had examined trends in place of death and associations for centenarians in England over 10 years to consider policy implications of extreme longevity.
The team examined the cause and place of death 35,867 people with a median age at death of 101 years (range: 100–115 years), in England between 2001 and 2010 and compared with those dying at ages 80 to 99. The study also looked at factors such as the effect of socioeconomic deprivation on place of death.
The results showed the number of centenarian deaths per year in England increased by 56% in 10 years from 2,823 in 2001 to 4,393 in 2010. This ten year study consisted of 35,867 people with a median age of 101 years (range: 100–115 years) at time of death who were mainly women (86.7%) and widowed (85.0%). Areas of highest deprivation in the UK had the lowest proportion of centenarian deaths, with most centenarians having died in in a residential care home (34.5%) or nursing home (26.7%) with few centenarians dying at home (9.6% or in a hospice (0.2%) and over one quarter (27.2%) died in a hospital. The North East of England had the lowest overall proportion of centenarian deaths (4%).
The most common cause of certifying death was old age at 28% followed by pneumonia at 17.7%and other respiratory diseases 6.0%. Cerebrovascular 10.0%, ischemic heart diseases 8.6% and other circulatory diseases 9.8%, dementia and Alzheimer disease 5.7%, cancer 4.4% and senility "old age" 28.1%. Old age formed the largest category. However, trends in certifying death as "old age" showed a decreasing trend over 10 years, notably in hospital −0.87% annually with increasing use of dementia 0.34% annually.
In their conclusion the researchers write "Centenarians are more likely to have causes of death certified as pneumonia and frailty and less likely to have causes of death of cancer or ischemic heart disease, compared with younger elderly patients. To reduce reliance on hospital care at the end of life requires recognition of centenarians' increased likelihood to "acute" decline, notably from pneumonia, and wider provision of anticipatory care to enable people to remain in their usual residence, and increasing care home bed capacity."
Dr. Catherine Evans, PhD, MSc, BSc, RN, NIHR, Clinical Lecturer in Palliative Care/CNS at the Cicely Saunders Institute, King's College London commented "Centenarians have outlived death from chronic illness, but they are a group living with increasing frailty and vulnerability to pneumonia and other poor health outcomes. We need to plan for health care services that meet the 'hidden needs' of this group, who may decline rapidly if they succumb to an infection or pneumonia. We need to boost high quality care home capacity and responsive primary and community health services to enable people to remain in a comfortable, familiar environment in their last months of life."
"Compared to other European countries the proportion of people aged 90 years and over dying in hospital in England is high, and the number dying in care homes is low. For example, in the Netherlands and Finland more than three-quarters of people aged over 90 die in a long-term care setting such as a nursing home; far fewer die in hospital."
"Hospital admission in the last weeks of life accounts for a third of the total cost of end-of-life care per patient. Increasing the number of care home beds could reduce the reliance on hospital care, but we need to ensure caliber services are provided by GPs, community nurses and other healthcare working with social care providers to enable people to remain in their usual residence at the end of life if they choose."
This study was funded by the National Institute for Health Research Health Services and Delivery Research (HS&DR) Programme.

IHRA Expanding Headquarters
NORWALK, Ohio – The International Hot Rod Ass'n's World Headquarters is expanding for the first time in years as the sanctioning body prepares for a massive two-day move during the first weekend in December.
The new IHRA World Headquarters will still be located in Norwalk, Ohio, but the move will allow for the IHRA to expand to its own racing complex that includes an office building and a huge shop to house the IHRA fleet all together on the same campus.
As of December the new address for the IHRA will be 300 Cleveland Road, Norwalk, Ohio 44857. All phone numbers and email address will remain the same.
The move will allow the IHRA to better serve our racers, fans and sponsors as all competition and field operations will now be located under one roof. The move will take two days with a caravan of moving equipment spanning an entire city block relocating the office to the new campus a few miles east.
Even better, the move will come just a few weeks before Christmas so if you would like to send along a housewarming gift, don't forget the new address is 300 Cleveland Road, Norwalk, Ohio 44857.

Bust/Waist/Hip Measurements
this wiki
Also called Vital Statistics and abbreviated to BWH, Bust/Waist/Hip Measurements are a common method of specifying body proportions for the purpose of fitting clothes and indicating physical appearance. Usually used to depicted women the three sizes are the circumferences of the Bust, Waist and Hips; usually rendered in centimeters or inches.
BWH measurements, Cup size and HeightEdit
Because cup size is only partially measured in BWH measurements (to measure cup size the circumference of the rib cage underneath the breast must also be measured and then the difference between that and the Bust measurement decides what cup size is needed, the larger the difference the larger the cup size.) BWH measurements can only partially depict a woman's body shape.
Breast volume, or cup size, will further detail a woman's figure. A woman with measurements of 34A-27-36 (Bust:35, A cup, Waist:27, Hips:36) inches will have a different body shape than a woman with measurements of 32C-27-36 (Bust:35, C cup, Waist:27, Hips:36) inches due to the former woman's rib cage being about 34 inches in circumference (according to the 34), with a full bust measurement of 35 inches, the A being an inch of difference in the circumference between the fullest part and the band no. The latter woman's ribs would be about 32 inches around with a full bust measurement of 35 inches. The result is that the latter woman's breasts will appear "bustier" and her hips larger than the former woman even though their BWH measurements are both 35-27-36 inches.
The letter of the cup is larger as it goes up the alphabet, with double letters being large than the single in all but one case, AA is smaller than A. The BWH is frequently given as three numbers, the measurement of the fullest part of the bust, the measurement of the thinnest part of the waist and the measurement of the largest part of the hip, which usually falls to be around the butt.
An A cup on a 32 inch band is much smaller than an A cup on a 40 inch band. a person usually has a band measurement a few inches larger than waist measurement. A woman with 38-28-38 may have a bra size of 30H, 32F, 34DD and a 36 would be too large on her frame.
Height will also affect the presentation of the figure. A woman who is 36-24-36 at 5'2" tall, looks different from a woman who is 36-24-36 at 5'8" tall. Since the latter woman's figure has greater distance between measuring points, she will likely appear thinner than her former counterpart, again, even though they share the same BWH measurements.
Uses in Dead or AliveEdit
Each character, male and female, has had their BWH measurements displayed in the instruction manuals of each Dead or Alive game since the original Dead or Alive.

- In western culture, the ideal sizes for a woman are said to be B90 W60 H90 cm (B35" W24" H35").
- Various Japanese games are fond of listing these traits (while they're unfound in western made games) as a rough estimate of a girl's figure.
- An exception would be Skullgirls, a western made fighting game, which goes so far as to have BWH and includes cup size. The Senran Kagura series is similar though it's Japanese made.
- In Dead or Alive 5, the girls' bust measurements don't reflect their in-game model. For example, the bust measurements for Christie and Ayane are higher than with Helena and Kasumi, yet their in-game model has the opposite.
- It should be noted that a high bust measurement doesn't always mean bigger breasts; cup size is what really counts, but the Dead or Alive series does not provide that information.

TechPinas Exclusive!
Since the Philippines is getting Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 ahead of Europe and even the United States, I figured I might as well share more in-the-flesh photos and post a quick hands-on video of the gorgeous handset.
SGSA in the TechPinas Hideout! Live! Thanks, Samsung!
From this angle, we can clearly see that the scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass screen of SGSA is curved. It's a cool design feature SGSA shares with its more expensive sibling, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
Like what I shared in the previous post, Samsung Galaxy S Advance runs Android Gingerbread with its Dual Core ARM Cortex-A9 U8500 chipset processor. Some key features include a 4-inch 480 x 800 pixels SuperAMOLED display, 5 MegaPixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, 720p video recorder, 768 RAM, 8GB of internal storage, microUSB 2.0 port, microSD card slot supporting up to 32GB, and a Li-Ion 1500 mAh battery. As for connectivity, the phone supports Wifi, Bluetooth and 3G HSDPA up to 14.4 Mbps.
The hands-on video confirms that Samsung Galaxy S Advance runs Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread OS. This specific version of the operating system supposedly comes with faster boot time, support for 3G connectivity speed increase, and several other security and performance improvements. Note that Samsung has yet to confirm if SGSA will receive ICS firmware update.
Again, Samsung Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070 is set to arrive in the Philippines within this February with an official SRP of Php 22,990. It will be available at all authorized Samsung retailers nationwide.

Mostly cloudy skies look to linger for much of the day in Central Indiana, but most neighborhoods will warm into the 50s. Our normal high this time of year is 63.
Today we'll see a spread of temps from the upper 40s to the mid to upper 50s because of cloud cover. Communities north of I-70 will hang onto cloud cover longer, limiting temps today. Everyone will experience breezy conditions with winds gusting out of the west up to 20mph.
If you have evening plans, the weather looks perfect! Check out these temps:
Tonight temps drop to the low 40s, and very early Sunday morning, a few sprinkles are possible. Those will clear out quickly, and highs Sunday rebound into the 70s! A strong south breeze up to 25mph will pump in the warm air.
The 7 day forecast is very active. Starting Monday we have a daily chance of showers and storms. We will be watching for the potential for severe storms this week as temps remain mild.

City Blogger: The Expat Connection I
- 15 October 2013 10:43
- Posted by @vic_bird
Following the recent announcement of the team of eight City Bloggers from around the world who will be writing for us this season, in her next City Blogger piece Victoria looks at the importance of football to British expats.
Expat: An individual living in a country other than their country of citizenship.
Football Supporter: An individual who takes the wins, the losses, the good, the bad and the sometimes ugly and still supports their team with zeal.
As many expats will know, upping sticks and moving to another country is bittersweet. It's exciting to live in a different place but leaving behind family and friends is very tough.
When I waved farewell to my mum, dad, sister, brother-in-law and nieces and set off through the security gates at Manchester airport in April 2008 towards my new life in Chicago I was suddenly overwhelmed with emotion. I'd held it together pretty well until then but as my bag went through the scanners the enormity of what I was doing dawned on me. Not only was I leaving my family, and a well established social circle, but I was also doing it alone.
The first few months felt like freshers' week at university all over again: desperately trying to meet people, make new friends and accepting invitations to all manner of social events. But what I really needed was to find somewhere to watch the football as I was sure I'd find some fellow Manchester City fans in the Windy City which would be a direct connection with home. I was blessed to find my MCFC Family at The Globe Pub and not only have I met people to watch the matches with and banter about City, I have also made some lasting friendships.
Members of Chicago MCFC, with Mike Summerbee, at the opening of the City Soccer in the Community field in Haas Park, Chicago (October 2012) Photo credit: @ChicagoMCFC
As a Mancunian growing up in Sheffield being a City fan wasn't always easy but I was taught from a very young age to be proud to be a Blue. Manchester and Manchester City Football Club is in my blood as both my parents are staunchly Sky Blue, and their parents were too. As I mentioned in my previous blog my paternal Granddad was a police officer in Manchester who worked at Maine Road for home games. My maternal Grandfather, who sadly I never met as he died in 1966, was a member of the Beswick Prize Band that entertained the crowd from the pitch at Maine Road both before games and at half-time. He had grown up in the Army School of Music and could play any musical instrument as well as conduct and write music. In the Beswick Prize Band he mainly played the euphonium, which my mum reminisced about being tasked with cleaning. My maternal Grandmother, the inimitable Henrietta Daly or Nanna as I knew her, worked at Central Station in Manchester which is now the GMex Centre and where MCFC held the City Live pre-season party this year.
Since moving overseas my personal relationship with City has altered as the bond has become so much more valuable to me. An aspect of this must be the desire to retain your identity as an expat but it's also the connection to something familiar and constant which can be a shorthand for introductions when you see other people sporting your team's shirt.
Before I was a twinkle in his eye, my dad joined the Royal Navy in 1966. He spent many of his 12 years of service away from home without regular access to newspapers and the telephone, let alone the internet and all it has brought us (websites, Twitter, blogs, Skype, Facebook, FaceTime, Google+ - and the list goes on).
The BBC World Service was his only means of finding out the football results, and there would be no match report – just the scorelines. My Granddad would mail him copies of The Pink, but they would take several weeks to catch him up whilst at sea. I asked him if he'd also felt the same bond with City strengthen whilst he was away, and he agreed saying that it's true that "absence makes the heart grow fonder".
Discussing my Dad's experiences when he lived away from home made me wonder whether it's universal that your team becomes so much more when you are an expat, regardless of the team supported. I asked my university housemates who all live overseas now too: Mike (Arsenal) is in Cairo, Ian (Liverpool) is in Japan and Griff (Ipswich) is in South Korea. I also spoke to other expats that frequent The Globe Pub, as well as some members of other MCFC Official Supporters Branches here in the US.
Tune into my next blog on Tuesday 12 November to find out what they all said.

TC TO WILLIAM DOUGAL CHRISTIE ; 24 December 1840; DOI: 10.1215/lt-18401224-TC-WDC-01; CL 12: 373
Chelsea, 24 Decr, 1840
Dear Christie,
Inclosed is a Letter about Simpson the Candidate for the Librarianship: the writer is a Dr Murray, an Edinburgh literary man of respectable character, whom I knew long ago. Let it be in retentis [held] till this mighty matter get settled.
I had yesterday an immense Letter from Cochrane; he is coming up on the 2nd of January; and, I suppose, will invade your quarters then. He has sent a considerable Pamphlet of Testimonials, printed several years ago, without effect, in reference to the Advocate's Librarianship and the Signet do,—in both of which adventures he failed.1 He offers to reprint certain of these, with others now, for our behoof. I leave them with Brittan,2 and request you to look at them, and shew them to your neighbours, as you find occasion. One other point: the Pamphlet, it seems, is unique, the safety of it must be guarded like the apple of one's eye! My conviction that this Cochrane, since we can get him, will be the most important of acquisitions for us, is strong.
Yours always truly /
T. Carlyle

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.

Well guys, I just wanted to make a quick post to address some confusion that has come up about the winner of the Design-A-Bag contest. There have been a couple complaints that the winner seems to have used more than 3 colors in her design, though the requirements for the contest were 3 colors or less. I wanted to assure everyone that there were in fact, only 3 colors used in the winning design – Green ink, pink highlighter, and purple highlighter. I do think though, that perhaps the small version of the design which I have used on the post is misleading, and looks different in small resolution from how it actually looks. For example, some of the green ink looks kind of black on the scan, but in real life, it is clearly green.
I wanted to point this out because we would never want to be or appear unfair in judging a contest! We loved all the entries we got, and it was so hard to pick a winner! I just wanted you to know we did it fairly and within the rules of the contest. We love you guys!

Congrats Oli!!! I'm so happy and excited for you and i can't wait to own my very own bag by olivia. It's an amazing illustration- xx

Hi there. Although the winner of the bag contest did come up with a very cute bag…I don't believe free people has followed their own contest rules. It clearly states.."using the colors green AND blue". Where in the winner's bag is there blue??? It's very apparent in eveyone else's bags that the main colors that stick out are indeed green and blue. I think that the judgement was absolutely unfair. The contest rules are plain as black and white and I feel they were followed by the winner or the staff at free people.
- -July 19, 2008, 12:35PM
Hello Jung and Others-
I and Free People are terribly sorry that you feel the judging was unfair. I don't believe the contest rules were as plain as black and white though, and while this is where I believe the contention lies, I feel awful about it. I do see that the first line in the original post is as follows: "Using the colors green & blue, create a design…" If I could go back and change it I would. However the first guideline in the list of guidelines is as follows: "Use no more than 3 colors in your design, and try to stick to cool colors. Green and blue are what we are looking for most." I did feel that this made it more clear that we were looking for cool colors in general, not necessarily green and blue both having to be in the design together. Also, if you read the comments on the original post, (which there were many, because numerous people had questions,) one girl asked if her chances would be squashed if she did not use green. The response was "…your chances would not be squashed if you didn't use green, but they would be squashed if you didn't use cool colors. For example, if you don't want to use green but used blue or purple or black etc, that would be fine." Finally, if you look at the official legal rules, it points out that there are four guidelines by which the entries were judged: (i) Creativity – 25%; (ii) Appropriateness to the Free People brand image – 25%; (iii) Aesthetic Merit – 25%, and (iv) Adherence to design guidelines – 25%.
Again I feel awful that you feel the design contest was judged unfairly, and I do feel at fault for having the 'and' in the first line of the rules which shouldn't be there. However I do strongly believe that the contest was judged fairly and according to the rules. The winning entry had 2 out of it's three colors as cool colors. One was even green. It was spring-esque, brand appropriate, creative and beautiful.
All of the entries were absolutely beautiful, and we loved, as we always do, receiving beautiful creations from our customers. We just thought this would be something fun for everyone to enjoy, and we never ever wanted to cause unhappiness or make people feel there was unfairness.
However I do truly believe the contest was judged fairly and correctly, according to the guidelines and the legal rules.
- -July 23, 2008, 1:20AM
Hey everyone…i guess whats done is done…but i have to say..those colors sure do look like purple, pink and black..lol…i do feel like other extremely good entries were cheated. It just doesn't remind me of 'springtime' whatsoever…but hey,i don't know a thing about 'fashion' anyway. I have a suggestion for the next contest like this. I think the judges should pick their top 5 entries, post them on flicker or somewhere, and then have the contestants or customers vote on their favorite one..an open to the public type thing, that way everyone is happy! Just a thought…
- -July 23, 2008, 9:49AM
Hey Brooke!
Thank you for your suggestions, I will pass them along!
The Flickr for the contest actually is up, you can find it here, or at the link in the post above.
We did get a lot of beautiful entries, and it was hard to pick a winner, but I am certain that once everyone sees the design on the bags, they will love the winning design as much as we all do!
- -August 14, 2008, 12:52AM
I was just wondering why my design wasnt uploaded onto the fliker thing?
- -August 14, 2008, 9:40AM
Hey Carolanne!
Some designs weren't uploaded to Flickr because we received them in a file format that Flickr doesn't accept. However, if you send your last name to email@example.com, (so I can find your entry) I can have a look at it and try to tinker with the file type, if you would like.

|style bands clubs divas boy taboo more index
live at Mud Club 1986
|Heaven ws the place and Christimas Ball the occasion for Marilyn first- ever live performance in England.
Shortly before 1am on the Monday befofe Christmas, Marilyn was greeted by an enthusiastic and expactant throng as he arrived at Mud Club. Heldat Labyrintine Heaven under the Charing Cross Arches, this was the scene of his initiation as a boy of fourteen into the nightclubs world, but tonight Marilyn returned as the star.
As the opening bars of his forthcoming single ĄSpirit In The SkyĄ, pounded over the powerful sound system, Marilyn, his hair now a waistlength sea of golden dreadlocks.
Wearing a floor-length black-coat covered in multi-coloured fringes, sequins and feathers, he thrilled a capacity crowd.
This was the familiar Marilyn of ĄCalling your name`, strutting, pouting and teasing, yet it was also a new Marilyn. After a year out of the public eye, he has rediscovered his true direction, returning with a new aggression, dynamic self confidence and a voice which has matured grown even stronger.
Always the showman, he captivated his audience with his unique brand of glitz and glamour. halfway through the song he turned his back. There was an audible gasp from the crowd as, with the infinite skill of a seasoned stripper, he allowed his coat to slide sensously from his shoulders to the floor, revealing a sophisticated clinging oufit of sequinned black pants and off-the-shoulders top.
He has taken the 70s classic song and injected it with hard, 1986 gospel funk, Marilyn- style. As the song ended Marilyn, waving and blowing kisses, made his way to his dressing-room. he later returned to mingle with his fans
Boy George was among those who rushed to congratulate him, saying ĄHe was brilliantĄ
|Dear Valerie, after going to the Mud Club at Heaven, really looking foward to a good evening, and queueing up outside for ages, we were refused entry by Philip Sallon at the door. He opened my coat and had the cheek to look me up and down. ĄNo` he said. I showed him my Mazclub card and he just said ĄNo, you need an invite. This is not a Marilyn concert, this is the Mud Club.Ą
So, after dragging all my friends up there to give Marilyn some support, we were rejected, and its so degrading. Some people that got in were more ĄboringlyĄ dressed than us - I just dont understand Philip Sallon at all...Ą
A week before Christmas, Marilyn decided that he was going to sing live at SallonĄs Mud Club Ball, and asked me to inform the Fan Club members. IĄd called about 20 people before Maz rang me and said that Philip was insisting on upholding his usual club rules, and would only admit people who passed his scrutiny at the door, the fact that they were Fan Club members would not make any difference. So Marilyn and I decided that IĄd better stop calling people as the last thing we wanted was for any fans to be turned away. In the dressing room after his performance, Marilyn and I were both furious when we learned that club members had actually been ferused entry, but by then it was too late to do anything aobut it

Returning Cougar Runners Get Their Shot At Idaho Invitational
September 8, 1998
PULLMAN, Wash. - Most of the returning members from last year's Washington State cross country squads will get their first racing opportunity of the fall Friday, Sept. 11 during the Idaho Invitational.
Competition begins at 5:15 p.m. with the women's 2.5-mile race followed by the men's 4-mile race at 6 p.m. Both races will be held at the U of I golf course. The Cougars will join teams from Boise State, Eastern Washington and host Idaho.
"We'll swing the other way around this week by racing the returnees and resting the freshmen," said Cougar head coach Dr. James Li. "Again, this early in the season, I want to give people some work and evaluate. The competition will be better this week."
Li hopes the returning Cougars can enjoy the same success posted by the freshmen at last week's Spokane Harrier Classic at Whitworth College. WSU garnered both team titles and freshman Oscar Franco-Parra (Portland, Ore./Sunset) posted a 17-second victory in the men's 6,000-meter race with a time of 21-minutes, 21 seconds. And April Gagner (Yelm, Wash./Yelm) finished as runner-up in the women's 4,000-meter race that had the Cougars' five scorers, all frosh, within 40 seconds of each other.
This week WSU's men will compete with a pair of brother combinations, Jon and Justin Murray (Stanwood, Wash./Lakewood) and Eric and Simon Kamau (Nairobi, Kenya). Jon, Eric and Chris Charles (Bainbridge Island, Wash./Bainbridge) are three returning seniors who each were top seven runners for the Cougars last fall. "All of our guys have looked good in training and most look stronger than last season," said Li. "The Murray brothers will be our sensations this year."
Kimberly Schmolka (Port Orchard, Wash./South Kitsap) will be the lone senior competing for the Cougar women at Idaho. Schmolka, along with sophomores Megan Maynard (Langley, Wash./South Whidbey) and Crystal Malgesini (Snohomish, Wash./Snohomish) will look to build on the momentum of successful track seasons.
The Cougars will be without two key performers, namely junior Bernard Lagat and senior Joanne Hunsinger. Lagat, last year's Pacific-10 champion, had an extensive summer of track competition. He will likely make his first appearance at the Mountain West Classic Sept. 26. Hunsinger has recovered from a slight stress fracture (foot) and will need other week of training according to Li.

Change of view
That was the sound that left the girl's lips as she tightened the piece of cloth around her chest. Dear Lord, why I am doing that again? [f/n] asked herself while fighting back involuntary tears as she pulled with a bit more strength than she should have.
Impatient knocks on the door almost made her jump.
-[L/n]! Last call! – a man yelled through the wooden door.
-Co- - the high pitched choked sound [f/n] made almost made her want to smack her head on the wall. Idiot. She cleared her throat. –Coming!
A hoarse voice was the closest thing to manly that [f/n] could get. No one complained, so it was alright.
For now.
She had entered the army for a single reason: spare her sick brother. How [B/n] squirmed once the girl told him she would take his place. He could barely breath by himself, much less held a weapon between his hands firmly, so she wouldn't allow him to become a moving target. Her parents were a bit reluctant at first, but eventually supported her decision, so there she was. Disguised as her brother.
But she had cried to cut her hair.
[f/n]'s [h/c] locks were her pride and joy, running as a shining cascade from her shoulders and all the way down to her waist. It was the part of herself she liked the most. The flawless point of her that, strand by strand, made its way to an unorganized pile on the floor, as soon as the accepting letter came. Each of those strings was unique, revealing a different shade of [h/c], and she loved them, because they were a symbol of all her memories. All she was leaving behind.
Enough of that.
She touched the short hair behind her neck while adjusting the black cap on her head, her now hardened [e/c] staring her from the small mirror on the cracked wall.
[F/n] finished dressing her uniform, large enough to hide her slender waist, sighing before opening the door.
Time for another day.
Their country was on the merge of a war, so every boy that could hold a gun would be called to join the armed forces. Forced, to be more precise. And, as she adjusted the leather belt, she speculated how many more of them weren't in a similar situation to her. Maybe several were actually women.
A guy passed by her, scratching his beard while walking and then spitted very closely to her feet.
Alright, maybe not that much.
General Bieldschmidt stared at her with his ever so present frown while the soldiers stood in line. That was somehow sad, since he was a really handsome man. [f/n] wondered how he would look like if he let his slicked back hair a bit more free and smiled. The result in her mind almost stole her breath.
His eyes pierced her, looking rather angry. Her small daydream should have appeared on her face.
How embarrassing.
Feeling herself blush, she didn't dare to gaze away from the tip of her shoes. She did that until a pair of boots much like the one she was wearing stood in front of her.
-[L/n]. What exactly are you doing?
Oh, f- …, she couldn't even finish that mental sentence before he started yelling at her.
-What kind of lazy excuse for a soldier you are? Run for ten laps around the field until you learn to PAY ATTENTION! NOW GO!
Oh, boy. [F/n]though as her legs started moving. Run around the field meant something like two miles, perhaps more. Per lap. She sighed. It would take all morning.
As if hearing her conclusions, the general shouted behind her.
-And you better finish it in one hour!
Jesus. What did he ate that day? British scones? Nothing else could make someone in a such sore humor, first thing in the morning.
For [f/n] joy, it started to rain. The dust that her feet made fly around her became mug, and it splashed all around her.
The storm didn't even seem to relieve the heat, the water falling just as warm as her own skin, drenching her clothes in an unpleasant way.
It was about the middle of her laps when she noticed something.
Oh, no. She thought. No, no, no, no, no, NO!
With the rain, her clothes became glued onto her body. And a bit see though. Not a lot, but enough to draw suspicious.
With the sounds of her own steps as a track of time, she ditched anyone that could be close enough to have a closer look on her, especially around her chest.
The rainfall ended as suddenly as it came and she stared furious to the sky. Why the weather had to be such a huge troll?
So an idea popped in her mind. Why not go back to the common barracks and take a shower?
(She liked her body clean, thank you very much, unlike some of the others there. That meant to take showers in odd times, when no one was there, or in a river close by – horrible way to discover you hate fishes.)
She exanimated the path. Nobody was keeping a watch at her. And pay a few more laps or listen to a full hour of screams would be much better than being caught. So…
(Germany POV)
He watched as [B/n] ran around the field. Lately Ludwig had been strangely conscious whenever he appeared anywhere near the German. From his androgynous (almost too delicate) face to his vivid and challenging [e/c] eyes, Germany found himself searching for the [h/c] head among his soldiers when he had time between his orders.
That alone worried him a little, since he felt the young boy could almost be a little brother to him, and he couldn't be attached to his man. As if to not be unfair to the others, he always assured he would be as strict to him as he would be to the others, maybe a bit more.
But the little guy would always do his best within his limits. That made Ludwig slightly proud, even if he wouldn't admit that even under threat.
So when he saw [l/n] getting out of the track and going to the showers, Ludwig felt himself disappointed and angry. And so he went to the barrack a few minutes after [b/n] entered there.
The sound from the water falling muffled his steps. The light humming of a feminine voice also helped.
The what?
In the farthest shower, there was a short haired [h/c] girl.
[l/n] was a… Girl?
She sang, almost whispered, a children's lullaby in such a gentle way that he froze for a moment, just hearing the softs sounds she made. Then his face began to burn, so he left the place the quickest he could.
Ludwig leaned against the outside wall, still humid from the rain, panting. What had he just seen?
Life is about to get a lot more complicated. He though, while feeling his heart beat out of pace in his chest.
Maybe he didn't saw [l/n] as a younger brother after all.

Alright, when I first saw the request my reaction was "OH, YES!". That gave me a very good excuse to mess with my favorite German and to put a few ideas I had running around my head in order. I do hope you enjoy it, ~YowaneHaku5. I tried my best to make this. Comments, compliments, critiques. Anything you want to say is much welcomed. I'll finish the others as soon as I can. Thank you all for reading it. ^-^

Oh my goodness YES!
I love this!
So well done and beautiful! I love this story so much!!! *squeals* Now to read the rest of them! Away!
I started somewhere in the middle too XD (same as ClCHantea lol) Went back to read the first chapter, which by the way, I'm grateful for having the first chapter link in the description. ^^
well…as you may have noticed, i tried to start at the wrong place- the middle instead of the begining…
I'm Mulan now!!!!!!
Loved it ^_^
Thank you! That makes me really happy. ^^
No problem! I was thinking of writing a fanfic kind of like this with the whole army and cross dresser thing, but I'm not sure if I have the time.
No, he had a lot of 'Instant Carnation Bitch' earlier that morning. (The joke's from "That 70's" show)
Btw, awesome story!
Did he see her naked?
Yes. I didn't describe for two reasons: I didn't feel like it should have a mature content label, and it's reader-chan's body. If I describe a specific type of body, it's not you anymore, is it?
When I saw the title, the song "I'll Make A Man Out of You" started playing in my head XD

Love is Everywhere Valentine manga, Part IV ♥
August December
© Sparrow/m&c!
The second KOLONI local comic (after Cinta Sang Fashionista) to be embraced by m&c!'s Love is Everywhere salvo is August December by Sparrow, which poses the question:
Do you believe in the existence of... true love? Obviously, protagonist Cahaya does. Cahaya, a rookie Cupid, loses one of the tools of his trade — his bow and arrow. (Or it could be just the arrow.) Unfazed, Cahaya perseveres in letting his clients experience soul mate love, even if sometimes the methods he uses are unconventional.
The other Love is Everywhere shoujo manga include the Older Woman/Younger Man quartet — Love After School by Aikawa Saki, Bus Guide Story by Sakou Watari, Buttterfly Boy by Arata Megumi and Cherry is Everywhere 1 by YASUKO; the models and celebs Cute! Cute! Cute! 1 and 2 of 2 by Sakisaka Mea and Secret Scandal by Shigano Iori; Bad Boy-troped First Love Stories by Yoshinaga Yuu and Kiss Me After School! by Shiiba Nana; and Can Not Spit It Out angst Kiss and Regret by Nanao Mio and Time to Say Goodbye by Yamanaka Rico. All these previewed after the manga list.
MANGAZINES: Cherry 51/2011 premieres I am not a Maid! and Super Sweet Honey
The 51st issue of the Indonesian Sho-Comi/ ChuChu/Ciao slaps Nanajima Kana's 7 Centi! on the cover, to go with the latest Memory 8 chapter inside, but I wish m&c! had instead chosen I am not a Maid! or Super Sweet Honey or Blue Prince. Need moar info about these Cherry 51 debuts. As it stands, I can only speculate that I am not a Maid! is Iwaoka Meme's Maid ja Nai Mon! 「メイドじゃないもん!」.
Edit: Yes, I am not a Maid! IS Maid ja Nai Mon!, while Super Sweet Honey is Sekai Seifuku Honey 「世界征服☆ハニー」 by Aoi Michiru (ex Ciao) and
Blue Prince is
Oujisama wa Blue, a side story to My Lovely Class Leader by Nishimura Tomoko.
Other series installments: Kiss & Harmony by Takamiya Satoru (Lesson 4 this issue), The Ring of God by Obara Shou (Episode 5), Yomogi Loves Money? by Arai Kiyoko (Episode 2), Color of Sky, Color of Love by Ichikawa Show (Episode 4), She, Between He and Me by Morita Yuki (Episode 2), Dawn Aria by Akaishi Michiyo (Episode 28) and
Sejejak Mimpi: Romantika Odong-odong
that I assume was lifted from Sejejak Mimpi, the KOLONI comic by S Y S, Cosmic Afro and Kat that m&c! released last December.

By Emily Le Coz/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – City leaders could reject a roughly $161,000 bid to relocate the historic Spain House after failing to reach a consensus Tuesday about lowering costs.
Tupelo Historic Preservation Commission member Doyce Deas said the city could save at least $16,000 by cutting down and hauling away trees on the property instead of letting the Kosciusko House Movers do it.
But city attorney John Hill said the city can't remove those items without violating the state's bid laws. It would have to reject the sole bid and begin the process anew.
Council members, who were at an unofficial work session, had mixed reactions but seemed poised to simply reject the bid at their next meeting.
The city has until Oct. 1 to move the house before it reverts back to its most recent owner, Calvary Baptist Church, which plans to demolish it.
Read the full story in Wednesday's Daily Journal.

Three column header with fluid center column with tabbed navigation
Recently in my one of my projects I needed to create a layout for header. It was a little complicated layout for me and here I want to present a demo page for the header I ended up creating. Hope this helps anybody who is trying to solve a similar problem.
Header needed to have three columns. Side columns should have fixed width and center column should be fluid. Center column has a tabbed navigation menu. While the center column is fluid I didn't want horizontal navigation menu to span the entire center column because that creates too much distance between the tabs. (I have max five tabs). Minimum header this header supports is 1024px. I had the liberty of using as much CSS3 as I can with providing somewhat degraded experience to the browsers that don't support CSS3. I also wanted the tabs to have min-width and max-width and when the text length hits the max-width, I wanted it to wrap to second line by staying vertically aligned middle. For smaller screen support I am using css media queries to change some styles. Thanks to Kristopher and Gabriel in helping me figure out the issues with small screen support and vertically aligning the tab text in the middle when it wraps to second line.
Following are the tools/techniques I used for this:
- Holygrail technique for the three column layout
- CSS3 for tabbed navigation menu
- display:inline-block and shim technique for keeping the wrapping tab text vertically aligned middle
- Media Queries to support smaller screens
- jquery smartresize plugin to add support for smaller screens on IE6/7/8 [ not included in the demo ]
One Response to "Three column header with fluid center column with tabbed navigation"
This post was just what I was looking for. Thanks!

The time has finally come that I am student teaching!!!! I have been placed in a 5th grade classroom in the Winona Middle School. My cooperating teacher is pretty young, very energetic, and relates very well with the students. I always had pictured myself with a younger classroom, but my 5th graders already have my heart. This is something you will experience when you have practicum experiences in the schools: it is amazing how quickly you care for your students.
The first day, my students had a very difficult time saying my last name, but now a lot more are catching on; either that or they take the easy route and just call me Ms. K. During breaks, a lot of them congregate around my desk and draw on my post-it notes. I am just hoping my brand new stack will make it until March at this rate!
During science class, the 5th graders have been working on their Science Fair project ideas. Some students came up with their ideas quickly, and others are still thinking. If they do not know what they want to do, I ask them to think about something they really enjoy doing and then we try to think of a way to make it into a science project. This way the students are interested in what they are doing, and they will be much more likely to work harder on the project. Leaving the computer lab today, one student told me how awesome science was because it uses all the subjects: math to figure out problems, lots of reading, and learning about things and history like in social studies. I was so excited and proud at this moment! That is exactly how we want students to feel! Incorporating several subjects together in a lesson is also much more practical in real life than just focusing on one subject. Think for a moment: when, besides maybe doing homework, are you just focusing on math, or science, or social studies? Not very often. So the more we can connect a lesson to multiple subjects the better.
I know it has only been three days so far, but when my alarm goes off SO early in the morning, I am excited to wake up because then I get to see my kids. And I am honestly not just saying that because it sounds good: it is the TRUTH! If you pick the right profession, you will know because you will look forward to it every day. You'll see
"There is no more noble profession than teaching. A great teacher is a great artist, but his medium is not canvas, but the human soul." – Anonymous

By: queldorei
Thank you for purchasing my theme. If you have any questions that are beyond the scope of this help file, please feel free to post your questions here themeforest. Thanks so much!
Previous versions use the following directory structure.
Separate design package use following directory structure.
Earlier shopper there was a theme of default design package. When you needed to modify a theme you were making changes right in the theme.
Now shopper there is a separate design package, which can contain as many themes as you like. A huge advantage of this system is that as well as having shopper theme as default package theme, you can create new themes which simply improve shopper the theme. This allows you to reduce the amount of code you need to write and maintain!
If you want a theme variant of your "package" to be the default theme, the easiest way to change your theme is to enter your theme variant name in the "Default" field in this section, leaving all other options in this section blank. For example, if you want your "custom" theme to be the default theme for the website, enter "custom" in the default field here.Magento looks for files like this: Current package's "custom" theme > Current package's default theme > Magento Base folder.
The sample data must be imported before running the Magento Setup Wizard in the basic Magento installation process
If you do not change files, simply download a new version and copy it over the old files. That's it.
If you have made a lot of changes to your theme and would like to upgrade it, please check patch folder. It is located in theme files. It contain information in git patch format.For example check patch\v1_0____v1_1\. You will see the patch files
skin/frontend/default/shopper/css/local.css | 3 ++-This code means that local.css was changed, 3 differences, 2 insertion, 1 deletion
-.my-wishlist .buttons-set { border:0; padding:0; margin:0 0 -3em; } +.my-wishlist .buttons-set { border:0; padding:0; margin:10px 0; }line with minus was deleted
You can browse thru patch files manually or update it via console.
git apply 0001....
Please note that patches should be applied version by version. I.e. if you have v1.1 and download v1.2.3 - you should first apply patches from v1.2, after that from 1.2.1 and so on
If you have clean install there will be no store select. All settings will be applied to default configuration scope
"Activate Theme" will update system config. If you do not want to update all these settings - change them manuallyFollowing config settings updated:
If you use fresh install, there is only one root category (Default Category). This root category in not displayed on the frontend, and your navigation is empty.In this case you need to add some categories under the root category (Default Category). To accomplish it you need to :
Two columns layout used by default. If you want to change default category layout you need to edit
Find catalog_category_default and catalog_category_layered. Insert this code inside each tag
If you want to change particular category layout to one column, you need to :
If you want edit product images go to Catalog -> Manage Products. Select a product. Select Images tab. Every image has following attributes:
"Shopping cart","Bag"
To edit theme settings go to Queldorei -> Shopper -> Theme Settings
If you want to restore default settings, go to Queldorei -> Shopper -> Restore Defaults.
Select the store view ( select all store views if you are not sure, it is corresponded to default configuration scope
) and press restore
Also you have an ability to clear settings for all scopes. This might be useful if you have made some experiments for different stores / websites, but now you want to clean it with one click.
If you want to restore all blocks - select checkbox Restore Default Cms Pages & Blocks
If you make changes to some cms page/static block and want to restore it - please check How to restore default theme Block.
To setup Slideshow configuration - go to Queldorei -> Shopper -> Slideshow -> ConfigurationSlideshow settings
To manage Flexslider slides - go to Queldorei -> Shopper -> Slideshow -> Manage Flexslider SlidesSlide parameters
To manage Revolution slides - go to Queldorei -> Shopper -> Slideshow -> Manage Revolution SlidesSlide parameters
You have an ability to override any theme option for particular category and/or its subcategories. In order to do this you need to go to Queldorei > Shopper > Categories Color Schemes
Here you can create a new scheme for any category. A scheme has following options:
Before edit any content in CMS PAGES or BLOCKS you need to
Disable the WYSIWYG editor in System - Configuration - Content Management.
WYSIWYG magento editor reformat content html and you can see get some bugs if you do not disable it.
After it is disabled you can edit html the way you want.
Now that the New iPad is out, and there have been various clues that perhaps in the future Apple screens on other devices will have a similar resolution, handling high resolution images has become an important issue for many designers.
Our theme supports high resolution images for retina screens.
Lets take shopper_logo block as an example.
It is very important for an image to have these 3 parameters. Width and height should be equal to dimensions of an image for regular screens. Class="retina" define that this image should be reloaded for retina
However, you need to select an image for regular screen to insert the content textarea
If you delete or change page/block and want to restore it - you can always find the original version in app/code/local/Queldorei/Shoppersettings/etc/cms.xml. It contains two blocks of data - pages & blocks. They correspond to CMS Pages & Static Blocks. Xml fields are pretty self-explanatory.If you make changes to some cms page/static block and need to restore it - please check Restore defaults.
This theme uses following Javascript files.
Some Photoshop basics
Scale (size change)
To change the size of buttons, price boxes, etc. select the layer that you want to change, then press ctrl+t and holding left mouse button pressed drag the transformation handles. To change the whole button or pricing plan sizes choose folders. You can change sizes of all buttons if you link them together.
Text change
You can click on top of the text with the Type tool (T). You know your cursor is in the right place when the Type tool's cursor changes to an "I-beam." However, if you click in the wrong place, Photoshop will create a new type of layer; in this case, press the Escape key to cancel the new layer. You can change text parameters such as size, kerning etc. in "Character" window, Main menu: Window / Character.
Shape change
Shape is a filled layer linked to a vector mask. You can easily change the fill to a different color, a gradient, or a pattern by editing the shape's fill layer. You can also edit the shape's vector mask to modify the shape outline, and apply a style to the layer.
Visible invisible layers
To hide/unhide a layer click on the eye icon left to the layer's name in layers' window. To open the layers' window go to main menu on the top of interface Window/Layers.
Add / hide effect
Below the layer name can be some effects. If there is an arrow right to the layer's name it means that this layer has effects. Click on that arrow to show/hide the effects list.
To hide or show effects in layers click on the eye icon left to effect name in layers' window.
Link layers
Linking allows to move and change sizes of all linked layers at a time. Some layers are linked together. To break this link choose a layer and then press on the chain icon between the eye icon and the layer's name. Do this to all the layers you want to link or unlink.
Duplicate layer
Go to your "Layers" palette, and click on the layer that you want to duplicate.
Go to "Layer" and select the duplicate layer. In the pop-up window that opens, give the new layer a name. If the layer you are copying is called "My Layer," call the duplicate something that will make it easily identifiable, such as "My Layer Copy." Click "OK."
Multiple layers selection
Press and hold ctrl to select multiple layers.
Once again, thank you so much for purchasing this theme. As I said at the beginning I'd be glad to help you if you have any questions regarding this theme. No guarantees but I will do my best to assist. If you have a general question about the themes on ThemeForest, you might consider visiting the forums and posting your question in the "Item Discussion" section.

Reviews for Chocolate Ganache Tarts
"Yum! I'd love to try this filling in a full sized pie! The pastry was very crumbly for me and creating the shells was time consuming. Otherwise, a very easy recipe with minimal ingredients.Oh, and I used half bitter-sweet and half semi-sweet chocolate chips."
"I did not care for the shells. I ended up piping the filling into phyllo tartlet shells. I got rave reviews!"
"The crust was a too thick but had nice flavor."
"This is my first attempt at making pastries, and it was very simple and delicious."
"Simple, elegant, and delicious. These are great. The pastry puffed up when it was baked, so I used the back side of a little 1/4 teaspoon to push the dough down to create an indentation in the center. I doubled the recipe and ended up with a lot of extra chocolate filling. I used a Wilton #12 tip to pipe the chocolate into the pastry shells. Piping made it easy and pretty. You may want to do the third step 1st so that the chocolate can cool while you work on the pastry shells. This is a "must try" recipe."

Hippoing from page 15.
Yeah I'll just drive to another town and shop somewhere else. It has to do with me having to know Spanish in the US otherwise I can't get helped.
I meant a different store... *eye roll* and everyone knows what boarder towns are like IN ANY COUNTRY.
But it's cool, I'll just let you all continue to "face palm" and "SYH" because you are so much more smarter and worldly than the rest of us.
I never shook my head. I did face palm because I thought I was in the "debate team" forum. So, my face palm was at myself.
Not only can you not speak Spanish, but obviously your English reading comprehension isn't wonderful either.
My husband's family is Mexican and starting with his mom's generation they didn't teach the kids Spanish...they already dealt with enough racism as it was, his grandmother didn't want them to be perceived as low class or as wet backs so the kids grew up only speaking English. I think that is sad as hell but apparently grandma wasn't an idiot because that provencial way of thinking is clearly still alive and well.
Well, neither choice would make someone an "idiot" but it does likely mean the person doesn't understand language acquisition and that learning more than one language not only doesn't hinder language development but helps development overall and in both languages (or multiple languages).
Basically, the practice of not teaching a native language when it is not the primary lanaguage of the for fear of placing them at a disadvantage still exists because people are ignorant.
Plus, I think the tides are finally shifting that being monolingual is more likely to get someone labeled "low class" than being bilinigual or multilingual.
My ODS has attended a couple of different Spanish immersion schools and in both schools it is primarily higher SES non-Spanish speaking parents enrolling their kids, not children from native speakers who are trying to ensure that their children are literate in Spanish in addition to being verbally fluent.
Still on page 24... I've read up to page 24... almost done!
