Airhole Monkey Bandana. Monkey photo face mask. THE item to be seen in on the slopes - keep your chops warm and make a statement! More than just a face warmer, the Airhole signature design expels moisture, retains heat, eliminates fogging and allows for uninterrupted breathing and hydrating from camel packs or water bottles.
Airhole masks are designed to help protect your face from the elements. Winter sports activities bombard your exposed skin with rain, snow, sun, and wind. The Airhole mask provides a barrier against these destructive forces using a weather resistant outer shell and a warm soft lining against your face.
Air Hole say: Heat loss from the head is significant and prolonged exposure will result in failure (bit dramatic - thanks Air Hole!). The face is a significant part of the head and is often neglected when dressing for snowboarding. Correct dressing in adverse conditions is essential for health and safety, as well as extending exposure time.
Cold burns energy and retaining heat retains energy levels. Wear an Airhole, look good, keep warm, prolong time on the snow…simple!
Airhole Monkey Bandana Features:
- Material: Poly Outer / Brushed Poly Inner
- Graphic Process: Sublimation
- Accent Details: Woven Labels

I love color i always have. Even when i went through my teenage goth stage and only wore black from head to toe, i know somewhere deep in that teenage drama queen sole i still loved color.
My house is painted in vibrant hues and i dress my kids in the colors that make me feel good. Color is so important in our lives.
I have been hearing a lot about color lately. "Oh your color looks good you must be feeling better" or " i saw you yesterday and your color was off, were you having a hard day"? We want to believe that color defines us, and really it does. I also sometimes believe that we need to believe we see color when its not there.
When i made my first Preschool pick up after my hospital stay people walked around me as if i was the worlds thinnest ice sculpture ready to crumble at any minute, and honestly i felt that way too. I had lost 10 pounds and i didn't have 10 lbs to lose. I was weak and pretty pale , i had no color in me, no natural pink glow, just gray.
A few days later i did pick up again, but this time i tried an experiment.I put a little makeup on. I gave myself a fake glow. I put a little lipstick on and some blush, and went to do pick up. Guess what, it worked. People were in high spirits around me. "You look great, you must be feeling so much better" " I was so worried about you on Friday, but today i see you are much stronger". It was so funny and so interesting. Honestly i felt worse, my nausea had kicked in big time, and i was even more exhausted than before. To my friends it didn't matter they saw color. The lipstick won the worried hearts of the people closest to me.
Its so interesting, color, just a bit here a bit there, and i'm a changed woman.
I dont think that's a bad thing either. Hashem made our world full of color full of light. So many beautiful things everywhere, and Hashem also made us want it, react to it, need it. Color
I love this colorful world, babies with extra chromosomes, and even mommies that need extra color to get through the day. How lucky i am to have so much color in my life, and even when i don't, i can paint some on.

DETROIT -- Move over, Joe Buck. Giants Nation has a new villain in the media.
Bob Nightengale of USA Today is hearing it from San Francisco fans by the hundreds after predicting in print that the Detroit Tigers would win the World Series.
His crystal ball was bold, saying the Tigers would take it in 5 games. Nightengale wrote:
"OK, do you want to talk about starting pitching? This will be a mismatch. The New York Yankees were absolutely clueless against the Tigers' rotation, so can you imagine how the Tigers will destroy the Giants' pea shooters.
"This rotation went 5-1 with a 1.02 ERA this postseason, yielding a .162 batting average. Now, they will be facing the weakest lineup they've seen all year, with not a single left-handed slugger available to counteract the Tigers' right-handed staff."
The esteemed Nightengale, in his 14th year at the paper, said he's gotten more than 200 e-mails -- and it's not exactly fan mail.
And he's taking it all in good humor. Asked on Friday at Comerica Park if there was a unifying theme to the messages he's gotten, Nightengale said: "Yeah. That I'm the biggest idiot that ever covered baseball."
He laughed. Nightengale has been through this once before -- in another Tigers series, no less. In 2006, he was so sure that Detroit would cruise past the St. Louis Cardinals that "I tried to be a wiseacre. I said, 'The Tigers in 3.'''
Instead, the Cardinals won the World Series in 5.
"I'm still hearing about that one,'' he said.

SAN JOSE -- A five-alarm blaze Sunday afternoon burned through a former television news studio near downtown where up to 30 homeless people occasionally stayed overnight.
The fire was so large the cities of Santa Clara and Sunnyvale sent ladder companies to help the San Jose Fire Department.
"This is a big fire for us," San Jose fire Capt. Reggie Williams said late Sunday afternoon. "We can't tell you whether or not there are still people in there."
Williams said the fire started about 3 p.m. The roof and walls of the former KNTV-11 building on Park Avenue collapsed soon after the blaze erupted.
Williams said firefighters attempted to get inside to look for people, but the flames, smoke and heat drove them back.
"We'll be here well into the night," he said, adding that rescue workers would enter and search for survivors or victims as soon as it was safe.
Williams said two people, apparently homeless individuals, had come out of the building safely when firefighters arrived.
As five ladder companies poured thousands of gallons per minute onto the fire, dozens of onlookers, residents and news reporters gathered at the corner of Park and Montgomery Street and at a few more vantage points. More than a few onlookers took photos and posted the images on social media.
In late afternoon, the wind shifted and pushed smoke, ash and mist into the crowd at Park and Montgomery, driving most of them away.
Ironically and luckily, Williams said, firefighters were familiar with the building. It sat across the street from the department's training facility. In 2012, the KNTV building -- vacant since 1994 -- was also used for fire training.
Firefighters had Sunday's fire under control by 5 p.m. Two firefighters suffered minor injuries and were treated and released, Williams said. A total of 100 firefighters battled the blaze.
Anyone with information about the fire may call the San Jose Fire Department at 408-277-8952.

MEDORA, N.D. (AP) — A popular lookout rest area and tourist attraction that serves as a gateway to Theodore Roosevelt National Park could open by Memorial Day, a park official said Wednesday.
Park Superintendent Valerie Naylor said an agreement was reached Wednesday to open Painted Canyon Overlook on May 25.
"We still need to get final approval from the National Park Service, but we're pleased with this development," Naylor told the Dickinson Press. "It's important that Painted Canyon be open for visitors."
Naylor said some "unexpected savings" were discovered that will allow the overlook along Interstate 94 to open. Painted Canyon would remain open throughout the summer and likely close sometime in September.
Officials at Theodore Roosevelt National Park announced last month that they decided not to open the overlook along Interstate 94 in April because of the automatic federal spending cuts that took effect March 1.
Nearly 300,000 vehicles stopped at the overlook just east of Medora last year. It features a majestic view of the North Dakota Badlands, as well as a visitor center.
It costs the park about $40,000 to run the overlook for a season, officials have said, which includes the cost of three staffers, utilities and custodial supplies. That amount is less than 2 percent of the park's annual budget of $2.85 million.
Naylor said the Painted Canyon Visitor Center will be staffed with park employees. The center is seven miles east of Medora along Interstate 94.

Managing bovine TB in wild deer
Minnesota has taken aggressive action to eradicate bovine TB from the state's livestock and wildlife. Thanks to the cooperative efforts of state and federal agencies, cattle producers, hunters and landowners, the prevalence of bovine TB remains low and is confined to a relatively small geographical area.
No deer tested positive for bovine tuberculosis (TB) in 2010, but surveillance efforts will continue in northwestern Minnesota when the firearms deer season opens Saturday, Nov. 5.
"We are encouraged by last year's test results," said Michelle Carstensen, wildlife health program director for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). "If this fall's testing efforts do not detect any more positive deer, that will build confidence that TB has been eliminated or is at an undetectable level."
It remains vitally important to continue to obtain enough samples to draw conclusions about the level of the disease in deer. Future deer management will be based upon ongoing assessments until bovine TB is eliminated.
This fall's surveillance goal is to collect 500 samples for testing, Carstensen said. At least 200 of those samples should originate from within the core area of the disease management zone, a 164-square-mile area centered around Skime.
- History
- Surveillance & Eradication
- Hunter Assistance
Since 2005, bovine tuberculosis (TB) – a progressive and chronic bacterial disease that primarily affects cattle, but also wildlife – has been found in 12 cattle operations and 27 free-ranging deer in northwestern Minnesota.
To date, all infected deer have been animals born during or before 2005 and taken within a 10-mile radius of the first confirmed positive cattle herd.
The most-recent case occurred in fall 2009 from a hunter harvested deer. As a result, DNR expanded the area where sharpshooters took samples earlier this year. Tests were negative for all 450 wild deer removed as part of that effort.
Bovine TB is a serious concern, not only because of the obvious harmful effects on animal health, but also due to the negative impacts to livestock producers, landowners, residents, hunters and businesses.
The disease already has cost the state and industry millions of dollars. If not eradicated, the disease could become endemic, increasing the associated costs exponentially.
Minnesota's Board of Animal Health has additional information about what it and other partner agencies are doing to help eradicate bovine.
There are currently no effective vaccines or medications for bovine TB in animals. The most effective method of disease control is eradication of infected animals. For this reason, all infected cattle herds have been depopulated.
In the case of wildlife, it is unrealistic to try to eliminate every wild deer or prevent deer from repopulating the affected area. Instead, the goal is to temporarily reduce the deer population in the area, thereby decreasing the likelihood of deer-to-deer contact and disease transmission, and eliminating infected deer in the process.
Deer: Disease surveillance in deer is ongoing and has been conducted by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) since 2005. The DNR also has employed a number of deer reduction strategies in and around the TB Management Zone, including liberalized and special hunting seasons, landowner/tenant deer shooting permits and contracted sharpshooting.
Elk: The DNR also has surveyed and tested elk from the herd that is in the vicinity of the TB Management Zone, as well as the herd in Kittson County. To date, no elk have been found with the disease.
Hunter participation in the DNR's sampling program in Deer Permit Area 101 is vitally important. Let us take a few minutes to remove samples from deer harvested there. It's a quick process and provides valuable information about the status of this disease and distribution in local deer populations.
Take your deer to the DNR Forestry Station in Wannaska or a deer registration station within deer area 101. You'll receive a DNR Cooperator patch and be entered into a firearms raffle sponsored by the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association. Check stations will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily from Nov. 5 to Sunday, Nov. 20.
Your assistance during the deer seasons is vital to help reduce or eliminate the need for additional sharpshooting in 2012.

Jamaican Dancehall Star Vybz Kartel Sentenced to Life in Prison for Murder
Vybz Kartel, a Jamaican reggae star known for dancehall music was sentenced to life in prison for an August, 2011 murder.
Last month, a jury convicted Kartel and three co-defendants of murdering Clive Williams, whose body is still missing. On Thursday Judge Lennox Campbell of the Home Circuit Court in Kingston, Jamaica, ruled 38-year-old Kartel, whose real name is Adidja Palmer, will have to serve 35 years before becoming eligible for parole, a court spokeswoman said.
Judge Campbell also sentenced co-defendants Shawn Campbell and Kahira Jones to 25 years in prison, and Andre St John to 30 years.
As reported by the Associated Press, an important piece of evidence in the 65-day murder trial was a text message that police said came from Kartel's phone. The message reportedly said Williams had been cut into such small pieces that his remains would never be found.
Kartel, who has a large following, is known for breaking new ground in dancehall music, which has a history of appealing to a young, scrappy, urban fan base. Many of his songs, such as "Sex and the City" and "It Bend Like Banana" are characterized by gritty, sexually suggestive lyrics.

I believe that the world view implied by modern physics is inconsistent with our present society, which does NOT reflect the HARMONIOUS INTERRELATEDNESS we observe in nature. To achieve such a state of DYNAMIC BALANCE, a radically different SOCIAL and ECONOMIC STRUCTURE will be needed: a cultural revolution in the true sense of the word. The survival of our whole civilisation may depend on whether we can bring about such change. IT WILL DEPEND, ultimately, on our ability to adopt some of the YIN attitudes of EASTERN mysticism; to experience the wholeness of nature and the ART of LIVING with it in HARMONY 25th Anniversary Edition Epilogue ....

U2's Bono gets spider named after him
Published: Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 6:54 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 19, 2013 at 6:54 a.m.
JOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK - It appeared Bono and arachnids didn't mix when his "Spider-Man" musical had a rough Broadway run, but that didn't keep a biologist from naming an actual spider species after the U2 singer.
Jason Bond of Alabama's Auburn University has identified 33 new species of trapdoor spider, including three of them in the California desert at Joshua Tree National Park. The park's namesake is featured in the title and cover of U2's 1987 album, "The Joshua Tree."
The Riverside Press-Enterprise (http://bit.ly/UWsRjW ) reports that Bond named two of the spiders after Indian tribes and one, A. bonoi, after Bono.
Bond has named other spider species after Angelina Jolie, Cesar Chavez and Stephen Colbert.
The trapdoor spider, found in the Southwestern U.S., is so-named because it makes a hatch to hide from prey.

Celine, Phoebe Philo, Nicholas Kirkwood, and More (OnStyle Notebook)
PARIS — Phoebe Philo's handbags have spawned nearly as many knock-offs as the Hermes Kelly. Fashionable people are cozying up in Birkenstocks and chunky sweaters because of the Celine designer. So pay attention, class, to what the teacher cooked up for Fall 2014: Knit pants that puddle around the foot (Marc Jacobs did them, too.), a longer narrow — yet still unbinding — silhouette, and comfy flatworm shoes. My particular favorite looks: jackets with the corners of fabric folded back and buttoned … as an embellishment.
Film director David Lynch created a creepy film backdrop of a clay monster head for the Kenzo show bright and early on Sunday morning. Next time designers Carol Lim and Humberto Leon decide to collaborate with a famous noir surrealist on their set design, they might want to consider moving their show to the last-in-day 8 p.m. slot.
But it goes to show that when you're relevant, you're relevant. These two besties from Berkeley have put Kenzo back on the map with their nerdy pop-culture fascinations, earnest do-good vibe (they protested global overfishing for their spring 2014 collection), and zany take on fashion trends. For fall 2014: maze-like jacquard suits, puffers (naturally), and for the truly trendcrazed, fur trimmed puffer clutches.
I stopped by Nicholas Kirkwood's showroom in the Marais to find out what an infusion of cash and knowledge from LVMH has done for the shoe designer. He's acquired a new CFO, representatives in the Middle East, and is re-working his supply chain. So in addition to those wink-wink velvet tuxedo slippers with the eyes on them, for fall, expect to see many many more of Mr. Kirkwood's creations come 2015.
When Johnny Talbot and Adrian Runhoff spied a photo of two protestors — one in a corduroy skirt citing homosexuality as sin, the other protesting corduroy skirts as sin, their fall fashion collection was born. Talbot Runhoff is the only label where you're likely to find designer corduroy, because this Berlin-based duo did not go with the puffer theme like everyone else.
Hot designer alert: To take a rectangular band of cloth — roughly 4 inches by 16 — and turn it into the basis of a collection requires perfect balance. For Givenchy, Ricardo Tisci had me twisting in my seat to see where he'd place the next strip of cloth — on the front of a gown, as pockets, stripped across the top of a sweater, plain cloth on a fur jacket? Blown up prints based on butterfly wings — not the shape, but the colors and patterns — were equally memorable.

A Snapshot Review--
The Mission of the Grady-White Freedom 335
The layout of the Grady-White Freedom 335.
The Freedom 335 has multiple missions. Yes, she is a large dual cabin boat that is intended as an "all-sports" vessel as adept at fishing as she is as being a tow boat for wakeboarding or tubing, or even being a scuba diving platform. But more than that, she is also intended to be a day boat for family cruising and as an entertaining venue for friends and clients.
By making the hardtop standard and including forward and side curtains, the 335 becomes a three-season boat in the north and a four-season boat down south. The standard VacuFlush head in a spacious compartment means that guests will be made to feel comfortable on a long-day outing.
In the process of designing the 335 the builder worked hard on its second mission which was to make virtually everything aboard appeal to ladies, as well men. To this end many of Grady-White's standard elements were amended to give this half of the population more of what they find appealing.
A third mission of the boat is to show by execution Grady-White's passion for excellence in creating a new level of boating experience. Grady's entire model line up blends the twin goals of form and function, but with the advent of this model they took it up another notch.
With a length of 33'6" (10.21 m) and a beam of 11'7" (3.53 m), the Grady-White Freedom 335 is one of the largest dual console bowriders on the market. But that's only the beginning of the story.
The Freedom 335 is a large step in a new and exciting direction for Grady-White.
The "Freedom" line means these boats can give their owners the "freedom" to do most anything they want on the water. Grady-White has been building dual console boats for nearly 40 years and so it well understands the concept. What sets this boat apart from the others is not only her size but also her looks, execution, and standard amenities.
The Freedom 335 has a two-tone hull -- Grady-White's traditional light cream color above the cove stripe and inside, and a sand-colored gel coat below. We think the subtle contrast looks cool.
Design Signals
Exterior Design. Her trademark Carolina Flare bow and sheerline are beautifully executed in the 33 ft hull. Her freeboard forward is higher, her bow is sharper, and the dark navy cove stripe that follows the sheer is classically elegant. But what really catches our eye is the two-tone topsides that make her look a lot more exciting. The result is a profile that is both arresting visually and practical for offshore work both fishing and cruising.
The 335 in profile accentuates the Carolina Flare and sheer line and demonstrates the higher freeboard forward. The aft cockpit has a depth of 29" (.74 m) which keeps the little ones secure.
The look of the 335 and its name plate lets people know that this is a dual cabin boat with offshore, nautical DNA and not just a pumped-up sportboat on steroids. Her bloodlines are blue. She is intended to be able to handle sloppy, rough weather and sea conditions while keeping her guests dry -- even the ones sitting forward.
The Interior. Another thing that makes the Freedom 335 such a sea change for Grady-White is her interior. It is there that the company has made changes in terms of design as well as in the amenities built in as standard equipment.
Note all of the curves and sculptured areas of the forward cockpit. The table has a Corian inlay, and stows out of the way when a platform for sun bathing or fishing is wanted.
Rounded Corners. Virtually all radius' in the boat have been increased to give her a softer, modern look. They also make the boat more comfortable and ladies are certain to appreciate them. Tables both on the helm deck and in the forward cockpit are rounded and have fiddles. Both on deck and below, cushions are robust, double stitched -- and rounded.
Day Boat for Entertaining
Grady-White has always been known as a premier builder of center consoles, walkarounds, and more recently express fishboats and because of that it is easy to forget that Grady-White pioneered the dual console concept in saltwater applications. There are now nine Dual Console models in the Freedom line ranging from the 192 to the 375.
Seating Capacity. The 335 is basically divided into four different venues for entertaining:
1) The aft cockpit which seats five (with an option for two more) and has a wet bar/galley plus a fold-down sideboard to port.
2) The helm deck which can seat six and has a fold-away table.
3) The forward cockpit which can seat five and has a table; and;
4) The port side compartment below which can seat four or sleep one.
The optional electric grill is over the refrigerator, drawers are to the left and a trash container is behind the lid. The counter is Corian.
Entertainment Console. Abaft the helm seat is a console that comes standard with a refrigerator, sink, drawers and Corian countertop. A 1300-W electric grill is optional and requires an optional 4 kW generator when not plugged into shore power. (We would consider a propane grill if a generator is not needed for other purposes, such as running the optional A/C system which come in 8,000 BTU and 16,000 BTU capacities.)
Keeping Cool. The boat comes with a 120-gal. cooler but remember that there are two insulated boxes with drains on the 335. One is the 166 qt. box in the stern and the other is a 230 qt. in the bow on the starboard side. With three large coolers there is enough cold storage for beverages as well as one left to dedicate exclusively for ice.
Hardtop and Canvas. Not many boats come with a standard hardtop, but the Freedom 335 is one of them. With it comes a forward and two side curtains. That makes a planned trip on the water for a picnic or an evening cruise a "go" event even if the sky is threatening. If it rains, simply put up the side curtains and stay dry while a summer shower passes over.
We like the canvas and hardtop because it turns the 335 into a three-season boat for northern latitudes. And when the sun is beating down all but the dedicated sun worshipers will be happy to stay in the hardtop's shade.
Advantage of the Grady-White 335 Dual Console
We hate thinking about the number of water outings we have seen aborted because people were afraid that a little weather was coming in. With the Freedom 335, in most cases that should not be a major consideration.
Because of her high freeboard forward, sharp entry, her high wraparound windshield with doors closing off the walk-through, and her hardtop -- this boat is made to shrug off snotty conditions. With the front and side curtains up, and the cozy cabin below family or guests will be well protected and dry in this dual console.
Special Family Friendly Features
Electrical Assist. Grady-White has made sure that everything on the boat can be easily worked by all members of the family -- including the kids. For example, the helm seat moves fore and aft at the flip of a switch. In the aft cockpit a large seat extends electrically out of the dinette console eliminating the horsing around that often comes when manual-moving seats get stuck.
A helm seat for two, moves fore and aft electrically. Note the footrests for people with both short and long legs. We'd like to see the bolster separated in the middle so that the skipper could stand while the companion sits. Note the high windshield frame which will be below the line of sight whether the skipper is sitting or standing.
Helm Seat For Two. This is important. We think that on all family boats of nearly any size at least two people ought to be able to sit facing forward -- the skipper and a companion. Because a couple can sit together they both can share in the fun and responsibility of piloting the boat together.
This is the best way we know of to get "buy-in" on a boat that a spouse might otherwise not be so thrilled about. Mom or Dad can also be joined by one of the kids in order to teach the basics of boat handling and build their confidence.
Looking aft to the closed console door in the boat's port side cabin. There is storage behind the beach bag. Note standard cherry and holly cabin sole.
Looking forward in the portside cabin. Note the lip of the platform at right that will make up a bed when electrically activated.
When the platform is deployed there is enough room for one person to comfortably take a nap; perhaps two can fit if they cuddle up.
Cabins Below. A special feature of the 335 is tucked into the port console. This makes an ideal changing room for people wiggle out of their wet bathing suits and putting on dry clothes. The compartment is large and has a bench seat that can hold three or four people setting. Kids will love to play down there or hang out watching the optional flat screen TV.
A platform under the deck can be electrically moved to meet the bench seat thereby creating a bed. This is a good place to take a nap or to sleep overnight in a pinch. Because the bed is electrically actuated there is no hassle in its deployment.
Head. The head is under the helm console to starboard. It is large and has a shower as well as a VacuFlush toilet and sink. Pressure cold water is standard, a 6 gallon (22.7 L) hot water heater is optional. A shower is standard and there is a sump. The head has a standard exhaust system but does not have a portlight. Both the port side cabin and the head can be air conditioned.
This is a large head as dual consoles go. Note that there is adequate storage and place to keep the toilet paper dry.
The teak grate makes it easier to sit and shower, or to sit and get dressed for that matter.
The New "Soft" Touch Grady-White
Everyone knows that Grady-White's heritage has been to appeal to rough and ready anglers who wanted nothing better after a day on the water than to get back to the dock and hose the blood and fish scales out the scuppers as fast as possible. Owners of the Freedom 335 can do that too or march to the beat of a slightly different drummer.
While it will still be possible to hose the deck down, some care should be taken in some other areas such at the helm and around the entertainment console, for example. Nevertheless, the Freedom 335 is designed for a dual personality.
The red arrows point to the all of the "soft" touches that Grady-White has made to this area of the boat. Contrasting vinyls and carpet, wood and Corian go a long way to making the 335 something special.
Wood & Fabrics. Everywhere on the 335 we find contrasting vinyl colors and wood accents have been carefully placed where they serve the purpose of warming up the boat and taking the edge off of the slick fiberglass. The instrument panel has wood, the cabin soles are cherry and holly, the head even has a teak grate.
Warming Her Up. These details, along with the curves and the plush cushions, have been tastefully introduced around the boat, and taken together they "soften" the boat. That means Grady-White is making the boat more livable, more cozy, more aesthetic pleasing.
There are a lot more features and amenities in this boat than we could ever put into words, so let's see the rest of the boat in pictures--
The optional cockpit access door on the starboard side has proven to be popular. While this is made to order for scuba divers most everyone seems to like it.
Avid anglers can opt for the 30-gal. livewell with light and 1,100 gph pump. The standard boat comes with a cooler here. The insulated fish box in the transom is 166 quarts and has a drain. It makes a great cooler for beverages when entertaining. We'd use the cooler at right for ice for mixed drinks or make it exclusively for kids' drinks.
Bird's eye view of the aft cockpit with the fold away transom seat out of the way and the electrically actuated seat to port retracted.
Here both seats are ready for guests. Grady-White also has an optional fold-out seat that will go in the bulwarks at the left. For those planning on a lot of entertaining, we would recommend that option.
This fold down counter with Corian inlay makes a classy sideboard upon which to set up hors d'oeuvres and stemware.
The close-up of the "spotter's" seat moves out automatically and is good place from which to watch the action on the end of tow line. Note the rounded corners of the laminated fixtures and cushions. This is one of the features that makes the 335 an "all purpose" boat.
The helm seat electrically moves forward and aft which puts the wheel within reach of nearly everyone. There is plenty of real estate on the console for two screens if the electronics are rearranged, but increasingly boaters are using only one multi-view screen. This boat has an optional bow thruster which is intended to be used with the left hand while the right one is on the gears.
The table on the helm deck folds out of the way when not wanted. Not only is it handy for lunch and cocktails, but it can also make a good nav table -- or a place to play gin rummy. One of the positive things about having a Corian table and special coating on the vinyl cushions is that red wine or fruit punch can be served aboard without fear of staining.
The optional sun shade extender is seen here all the way out of the standard hardtop. It is electrically motivated and is becoming increasingly popular on boats this size.
Entertaining is one of the things that the Freedom 335 is all about. Note five people are in this cockpit, but there is room for a couple of more -- and then there is the rest of the boat. Kids can be in the bow and adults astern or whatever.
Eight people are on this boat and she is not even close to capacity. We guess that 15 could be handled on deck.
We have not discussed loading this boat up with options for fishing, but obviously Grady-White has an option list with nearly anything a keen angler might want. Likewise for watersports where a tow pylon is optional. Skis can be stowed in the port cabin and wakeboards can be stored there or on brackets on the hardtop structures.
We have not tested the boat so can make no comments on her performance and handling to date.
The big story about the Grady-White Freedom 335 is how she looks both inside and out, as well as the practical amenities included as standard that make this dual cabin craft an "All-Purpose" boat. Yes, that is a beautiful optional two-tone hull.

About the Book
Friendly Fire, the first collection of short stories from Alaa Al Aswany, acclaimed author of Chicago and The Yacoubian Building, deftly explores the lives of contemporary Egyptians. Here are stories of generational conflict, corruption, repression, infidelity, and the dangerous clashing of western and Arab ideals, all beautifully rendered by Al Aswany, a true modern master and one of Egypt's "most exciting literary exports" (Minneapolis Star Tribune).
Alaa Al Aswany has won resounding critical acclaim for his deft and moving portrayals of the lives of contemporary Egyptians who constantly examine their relationship with Egypt's history, religion, class, and gender distinctions. In Friendly Fire he once again demonstrates an extraordinary empathy for lost and searching souls as he focuses on the exquisite emotions of everyday life.
In "The Kitchen Boy" and "Dearest Sister Makarim," Al Aswany explores the hypocrisy of the class divide. The brief and tender "Izzat Amin Iskandar" is a heartrending view of youthful hope. And in the unforgettable novella "The Isam Abd el-Ati Papers," the narrator carries us along a troubling journey through his painful relationships with his artist father and his self-centered mother, en route to a devastating collision of temptation and morality.
Here are stories of generational conflict, love, repression, and the clash of Western and Arab ideals, all beautifully rendered by a true modern master.
Educator and Librarian Resources
Critical Praise
"Al Aswany masterfully deciphers the forces behind social polarization over class, gender, race, religion, and politics, tracking the pendulum swings from sympathy to hate, dream to despair, sorrow to resignation, and refusing simple answers and tidy conclusions." — Booklist
"A startling first collection, elegant yet pointedly sharp-tongued and sarcastic…. Al Aswany is an insightful student of the human condition whose trenchant characters evoke a weird hybrid of Albert Camus and Charles Bukowski; the strange landscape depicted is at once painful and playful, rich in meaning and understatement." — Library Journal
"At times al-Aswany's stories are heartbreaking, at times they are uncomfortable, at times hilarious, but no matter what the mood, his work is always steeped in the greywater of humanity." — Virginia Quarterly Review

CASTRO VALLEY -- Studying was key for Oakland eighth-grader Aaron Freid, who spelled the word "lollapalooza" correctly to win the Alameda County Junior High Spelling Bee Championship on Saturday.
Aaron got the word -- meaning an unusual thing, person or event -- after second-place finisher Karah Pedregosa, of Dublin, misspelled it. Aaron then spelled "phenomenal" correctly, a fitting tribute to his performance, to take the competition for seventh- and eighth-graders.
"Three of the words I spelled correctly, including lollapalooza, were on a list I had studied," said¿ Aaron, who will enter the ninth grade at Oakland Tech in the fall. "My parents helped me study by reading words off the lists, and my grandparents use a lot of big words when they talk."
As the top two finishers from a field of 12, Aaron and¿ Karah, a seventh-grader at Fallon Middle School in Dublin, advance to the California State Junior High Spelling Championship on May 11 in San Rafael.
Earlier in the day, Anish Punaroor and Sahir Qureshi, both of Fremont, tied for the county elementary school title. The two dueled through multiple rounds after 29 other competitors were eliminated.
Anish, a sixth-grader at Parkmont Elementary, and Sahir, a fifth-grader at Niles Elementary, go on to the state elementary championship April 20 in Stockton.
Both Anish and Sahir studied words from lists provided by state spelling bee sponsors, but both said most of the words that came up were not on the lists.
"I looked at the words and then closed my eyes (to visualize) the spellings," Anish said. "I also look up words in the dictionary when I'm reading."
Competitors at the county level had survived earlier spelling bees in their districts. In all, eight school districts participated in one or both of the competitions.
There are more elementary school participants because children tend to be less interested in the competitions when they reach junior high, said Nathalie Longree-Guevara, the event organizer and the reading/language arts coordinator for the county Office of Education.
Both bees began with a first round of fairly easy words to allow the kids to "warm up," so to speak, Longree-Guevara said.
"We don't like to have kids miss in the first round, but sometimes they do," she said.
As the words got tougher, French words, such as ennui, gauche and potpourri, were especially troublesome, particularly for the elementary school competitors.
Anish and Sahir both missed on vichyssoise, a soup made from potatoes that's served cold, to end up in the tie.
There were also words that few college graduates probably know the meaning of, let alone the spellings, such as zibeline, a thick woolen cloth; larrikin, a street rowdy or a hoodlum; and catechesis, instruction by word of mouth.
Junior high competitors were eliminated with such words as nefarious, quixotic, tousle and demulcent.
"They either know how to spell them because they practice (vocabulary) like crazy or they master the phonetics of the words," said Avi Black, the county's history/social studies coordinator, who led the competition.
The event was the seventh annual elementary school spelling bee and the sixth annual junior high competition.

SANTA CLARA -- What makes Colin Kaepernick such a winning quarterback in road playoff games -- an undefeated one, at that?
"I have attributes that make me a good quarterback in any circumstance. I play to win, regardless of where I'm at," Kaepernick said Friday just before the 49ers headed to the San Jose airport for Sunday's NFC Championship game at Seattle.
Kaepernick helped lead the 49ers to last season's NFC Championship win in Atlanta, and although they lost the ensuing Super Bowl in New Orleans, he's led them to wins at Green Bay and Carolina this postseason.
"The biggest thing you have to realize is it's another football game," Kaepernick said of Sunday's mindset. "There might be more people watching, more at stake, but if you execute like you normally do and perform well, you'll win the game."
Seattle's hostile environment hasn't been kind to Kaepernick in his two regular-season starts there, where the 49ers have been outscored 71-16.
On Friday, he confessed that fans haven't exactly taunted him on the way into the stadium.
"We pull through the back so we really don't see too much," Kaepernick said.
The third-year quarterback debuted in a commercial last month for Beats By Dre, in which his headphones make him impervious to taunts by angry fans (in Seahawks' colors) on his way into an opposing stadium.
Coach Jim Harbaugh brought up that commercial before bequeathing Friday's podium to Kaepernick in the media tent.
"You guys love that commercial with Colin? I love it, I absolutely love it," Harbaugh said. "It's very true. You're thinking about the game riding in on the bus. Then the fans are all out there, and sometimes they're that way they are in the video.
"And the song is such a toe-tapper that I get the chills on that one. I'm going to get me some Beats By Dre. I am sold."
Harbaugh then turned to ask Kaepernick where his pair of headsets were.
"I've got a pair at the house for you," Kaepernick replied.
Kaepernick's headphones will be put to use once more for an away flight, where he will climb into his usual seat.
"I keep my music on shuffle and sit next to my man (left tackle Joe) Staley," Kaepernick said.

About the Book
"Truly funny….Little Billy's Letters is a delightful literary Ali G….I loved it!"
—Josh Weinstein, former showrunner, "The Simpsons"
"Demonstrates an obsessive dedication to the prank art form that moves me to tears!"
—David Cross, comedian and author of I Drink for a Reason
"A masterpiece of mischief!"
—Alan Abel, named "Best Prankster of All Time" by Esquire magazine
Little Billy's Letters is a zany collection of correspondence and memorabilia from the famous and infamous, responses to the cheeky and hilarious queries of a curious "little boy" named Billy (in reality, a fully grown Bill Geerhart). Fans of the bestselling Letters from a Nut and The Lazlo Letters, as well as Ali G and Borat aficionados, will howl at "Little Billy's" wickedly, insanely hysterical childish scrawls and less-than-innocent questions to world leaders, Supreme Court justices, celebrities, CEOs, and serial killers…and the truly astonishing answers they elicited!
What do Tori Spelling, the Church of Scientology, and Donald Rumsfeld all have in common?: They -- and many others -- have answered letters from "Little Billy", a grown man with a cache of stamps and far too much time on his hands. Funny, touching, and delightfully quirky, Billy's letters cover a broad range of subject matter:
- Operation Drop-Out: Considering dropping out of elementary school, Billy writes to serial killers and celebrities seeking their wise counsel.
Billy's Law: Which Supreme Court Justice prefers the Big Mac to the Whopper? Who is Janet Reno's favorite crime fighter? What does Robert Shapiro say is the best defense for being framed for murder? Billy finds out.
The Making of the Class President: Billy runs for class president and collects "endorsements" from Nancy Reagan, Dick Cheney, George HW Bush, Gerald Ford, Bob Dole, Ken Starr, and Colin Powell.
Choosing My Religion: Billy asks representatives from the Catholic, Presbyterian, Mormon, Raelian, Satanic, Scientologist, Hare Krishna and Unification Church (Moonies) what is "cool" or "easy" about their religion.
Presidents, Supreme Court Justices, Celebrities, Heads of Corporations, Serial Killers, Robot Makers, and the NesQuick Bunny have all replied to "Little Billy's" scrawled questions.

"This book will both amuse and disturb you. Oh, wait, and also amurb you as well. It demonstrates an obsessive dedication to the prank art form that moves me to tears!!" — David Cross, Comedian and author of I Drink for a Reason
"Truly funny, fascinating book. Little Billy's Letters is a delightful, literary Ali G. I couldn't put it down. Seriously, there's something with the glue in the binding. Other than that, I loved it!" — Josh Weinstein, Former Showrunner, "The Simpsons"
"Little Billy's Letters by Bill Geerhart is, in a word, amazing." — Larry Gelbart, legendary comedy writer
"Little Billy's Letters brought sublime smiles and some howls.

Cincinnati's newest city park will get another boost Thursday.
The PNC Foundation announced it was giving $450,000 to create the Grow Up Great Adventure Playground.
The playground will go up next to the Roebling Bridge.
Previous corporate donations have helped city parks thrive.
In the past, Duke Energy has presented a check for $450,000 to the park's foundation.
Western and Southern last year donated $200,000 to help ongoing construction
Procter and Gamble also contributed $1 million, which went to creating the fountains along the park with light features and a waterfall.

Raiders coach Dennis Allen doesn't have to be told there's work to be done when it comes to his offensive line. The New Orleans Saints drove home that point by running around, past and over the Raiders time and again.
Allen said he isn't sure what the solution is, other than to keep working with the players he has on his roster and keep an eye out for anyone that might provide an upgrade.
"We always have to look at what options are out there," Allen said in a conference call Saturday night. "Anthony Munoz, he's not out there right now."
Munoz, of course, enjoyed a stellar career that culminated with his enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Jammal Brown, Jared Gaither, Winston Justice and Sean Locklear are veteran options remaining on the free-agent market.
Things were unsettled for the Raiders offensive line from the outset of training camp. A torn triceps suffered by left offensive tackle Jared Veldheer -- he is expected to miss three months or so -- exacerbated the problem.
Allen and offensive line coach Tony Sparano tried Alex Barron at Veldheer's spot against the Saints. Suffice it to say, Barron has a ways to go before he gets the nod.
It wasn't just Barron who struggled against the Saints. Allen said he takes a measure of solace knowing many of the mistakes made are correctable.
"The more looks that we can see, the better that we're going to be prepared for those things when it comes to the regular season," Allen said, referring to the Saints blitzing and rushing from several angles. "Obviously, they brought a lot of pressure, and we've got to do a better job in the passing game of being able to execute when we do have pressure."
Perhaps just as vexing for Allen is the lack of pressure generated by the Raiders defensive line.
"It's a concern," Allen said. "We've had two games where we really haven't been able to get after the passer, specifically with four people. So, that's something that we got to continue to look at."
The Raiders played their first two exhibition games without starting tackles Pat Sims and Vance Walker.
Even so, the Raiders got in the face of Saints quarterback Drew Brees on only one pass play regardless who they lined up Friday.
"He's anxious and excited about getting an opportunity to play this week," Allen said.
Hayden practiced some the first three weeks of camp. However, he wore a red, non-contact jersey.
Allen said Walker has the best shot of returning to practice within the next week among a trio that includes Sims and offensive lineman Menelik Watson. All three have missed most or all of camp.
Allen also said that Juron Criner is "a little bit closer" to returning than fellow receiver Jacoby Ford.
"I did like some of the things I saw from him," Allen said. "Also I want to see a little more of the consistency and not have some of those rookie mistakes."

May 1st is an important day to the world's working classes and neo-Pagans, but it is also an unofficial national holiday in Australia as the new
release of Penfolds Grange and other "Luxury & Icon" wines enter the local and international markets. This is a major cultural event, with every major television and print outlet leading off with stories of the newly released Grange and the roads to Penfolds H.Q. in Adelaide clogged with everyday people and well-off collectors alike—many in line for over 48 hours, vying for the opportunity to purchase just one bottle of Grange. Chief Winemaker Peter Gago spends May 1st besieged by the media, all seeking his assessment of the vintage while he signs autographs and meets with consumers. In many markets and especially within Australia, this is the only opportunity to get one's desired Grange allocation, widely seen as the country's most prestigious wine.
Because these wines now have a global demand, Penfolds has a new approach to marketing the release of their world class "Luxury & Icon" wines—and if there's one thing Penfolds knows how to do, it's throw a party. I was fortunate to be invited to the first Penfolds Icon release dinner ever held in the US, where I had the opportunity to taste all the top new releases accompanied by excellent cuisine prepared by Aussie superstar chef, Curtis Stone (whom you might recognize from Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice".) This was a great evening to be sure, as Grange collectors mingled with members of the wine trade for a festive evening of food and wine while Matt Lane, Penfolds Ambassador for the Western Hemisphere, acted as our informative and entertaining emcee.
So what about the wines? Below are my tasting notes for each of the wines, but overall, the new releases showed
that Penfolds continues to assert its exalted position in the world of fine wine. The latest Grange returns to a bold, rich style following the elegant interpretation released last year. St. Henri Shiraz celebrates its 50th anniversary by continuing to shed its oft-worn mantle "sleeper of the lineup". This year's release is a wine for the ages and destined to last years in the cellar. And in one of the most difficult vintages for South Australia in the past ten years (and a year when Penfolds could declassify a poor wine), the Bin 707 Cabernet is one of the most succulent, approachable releases in a long time.
Tasting Notes
2007 Penfolds Chardonnay "Yattarna"
A blend of fruit from Tasmania, Adelaide Hills, and Henty. Pale straw color. Moderately intense and open aromas of lemon zest, delicate hints of creamy oak and burgundy-styled mineral elements prevail. Rich yet zesty on the palate, the citrus infused flavors soften with air and fan out across the palate. The minerals emerge again at the end, subtle and elegant in their presence. More refined and elegant, yet more complex than the '06. Each vintage of Yattarna has seen the Penfolds team head further south to source fruit from cooler sites. The 2007 release continues the trend towards a refined and elegant Yattarna style.
2006 Penfolds Shiraz "St Henri"
89% Shiraz, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon. St. Henri continues to go from strength to strength as the Penfolds winemaking team tweaks its style. Now in its 50th vintage, the latest release has an opaque center with the barest hint of a rim. The nose is moderately powerful at this point with roasted notes and dark pepper spices lying underneath. With air, soft and rich chocolate infused fruit appears but the wine is a bit backwards. Still creamy and full-bodied on the palate, this is a more structured and 'reined-in' St Henri that finishes with spicy tannins and a touch of nicely integrated acid to lighten the palate. Where the voluptuous 2005 was juicy and thick, this vintage will clearly reward some time in the cellar or a vigorous decant if popping the cork today. 1976, 1986, and 1996 are some of the best St. Henri's ever made. This release will continue the trend and add to that illustrious collection.
2007 Penfolds Cabernet Sauvignon "Bin 707"
A blend of fruit from Padthaway, Barossa and Coonawarra. The Penfolds 707 Cabernet is one of the winery's most historic wines and exemplary of the Penfolds style. Recent years have seen a restrained, more tightly wound wine on release, however the 2007 is another wine entirely and a throwback to the more open and opulent years such as 1988 and 1990. Super attractive, cedar and mint infused aromas leap out of the glass, while kernels of sweet, currant-laced fruit lie underneath. The palate is round with spicy tannins and toffee laced flavors to complement the moderately weighted fruit. Easily one of the most immediately appealing 707s in a while, it's hard to believe this juicy wine was matured in 100% new oak.
2007 Penfolds Shiraz "RWT"
Another winning vintage here. This RWT continues a string of successful releases that belie the wine's full name "Red Wine Trial". Clearly, the trial has been deemed successful quite awhile ago! Initially closed and restrained, the bouquet hints at roasted meats and a touch of coconut while the palate shows a purity of fruit and rich textures that seem almost weightless. Not a heavy style, it nevertheless has a pleasing, palate coating viscosity. The finish is youthfully short as the wine ends with subtle, talc-like tannins. An excellent wine in an open and approachable style from a vintage where many other South Australian shiraz are raisined and hard.
2005 Penfolds Shiraz "Grange"
96% Shiraz (88% Barossa); 4% Cabernet Sauvignon. This is a more open, generous and immediately appealing vintage compared to the elegantly profiled 2004. The latest release has the classic, effusive Grange aromas and palate of previous vintages, but is maybe not as dense as some other years. This wine is no slouch, however, with savory flavors of cherry flambé and marinated mushrooms. Sage and rosemary notes add high-toned elements to the bouquet. Tangy acidity at the end adds a lift and elegance to the midpalate and lengthens the finish. As usual for Grange, the concentrated fruit masks the structure that guarantees this wine a long life. An excellent Grange that shows its class and pedigree in an unabashed manner.

Biden on 2016: 'No Obvious Reason' Not to Run
At this point in the 2016 race for the Democratic presidential nomination, the question isn't so much can anyone beat Hillary Clinton — it's will anyone dare run against her?
One Democratic campaign aide said Mrs. Clinton has effectively "frozen" the party's stable of donors, meaning few people are prepared to write checks for other prospective candidates until Mrs. Clinton declares her intentions.
But one person who doesn't seem deterred is Vice President Joe Biden. In an interview with CNN, Mr. Biden said, "There's no obvious reason for me why I think I should not run."
Mr. Biden won't be making up his mind any time soon, though. His timetable is the summer of 2015, he said, for when he'll make a judgment as to who is "the best qualified person."
He sounded a philosophical note. "That doesn't mean I'm the only guy that can do it," he said. "But if no one else, I think, can, and I think I can, then I'd run."
"If I don't, I won't," he said.
If she chooses to run, Mrs. Clinton would be the heavy favorite. The national polls show her demolishing the opposition. State polls are equally telling. A poll conducted last month by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center showed 74% of likely Democratic voters favored Mrs. Clinton. Mr. Biden was in second place with 10%. New Hampshire, of course, traditionally holds the nation's first primary.
Waiting until 2015 would pose risks for Mr. Biden and any other potential candidate whose name isn't Hillary Clinton. Mrs. Clinton is already benefitting from a network of super PACS and advocacy groups that are outraising money and promoting her cause.
Unless he lays the groundwork for a possible campaign over the next year and a half – recruiting fundraisers and lining up support in states holding early contests – Mr. Biden will have a tough time competing with the Clinton juggernaut.

Year-in-Review: Oracle PartnerNetwork's Top 10 Triumphs
With six fewer days between Thanksgiving and Christmas this year, it's safe to say we're all feeling a bit frazzled. In the midst of everyone's hurried schedules, we wanted to stop and take a moment to thank all of our partners for another great year together.
With that, let's take a quick look at OPN's top 10 achievements of 2013:
- We started the year off on an M2M and big data note, outlining how our customers can leverage Java to manage heavy volumes of structured + unstructured data.
- The announcement of Oracle Database Appliance X3-2 in March, which extends the use of Oracle Database Appliance while simultaneously boosting hardware configuration. Oracle Database Appliance X4-2 with enhanced hardware was launched last month, as well.
- The launch of Oracle's new SPARC Servers took us into the summer months, teaching customers how to increase their share of wallet. Fun fact: Oracle's SPARC T5 Servers are powered by the world's fastest T5 processor, and have achieved 17 world record benchmarks!
- Oracle's partners took center stage at this summer's FY14 Global Partner Kickoff. Thanks again to those who participated in our highly-entertaining Twitter contest. It's definitely a must-do for next year!
- Oracle OpenWorld 2013 was another huge success this year and came complete with the Oracle PartnerNetwork Exchange. Get the full download here.

- An interesting case study on the Internet of Things (IoT) and how Oracle takes the complexity out of designing, building and maintaining an IoT infrastructure for VARs.
- Enablement –> Cloud –> Incentive Programs –> Exastack = the four major initiatives that make Oracle the vendor of choice for some of the industry's biggest hitting VARs. Get the full story here!
- Last but certainly not least, the customer experience (CX) revolution is near. See what Oracle is doing with Oracle CX and how VARs can get involved here.

Sparrow Hospital and Michigan State University plan to consolidate pediatric services in one Lansing location. Hospital staff believe the move, announced Monday, will improve pediatric care and access to services in the greater Lansing area.
Currently, parents with seriously ill children often have to leave mid-Michigan or visit multiple offices to see the specialist they need. Sparrow says the consolidation will put more than 80 pediatric doctors, in 30 different specialties, just one call away from the patients that need them.
"This is what it's all about, care as close to home as possible," Dennis Swan, President and CEO of Sparrow Health System said. "That's really important for everybody. Time can really be a factor especially for little ones, whose conditions can sometimes worsen very quickly."
Sparrow and MSU want to see emergency, neonatal, critical care and other pediatric services under one roof. The goal is to streamline the process for parents and get sick kids to the best physicians possible.
"No matter what the pediatric specialty needs you have, you make that one call," Sparrow Children's Medicine Director Stephen Guertin explained. "It's not to the MSU Childrens Center, it's not to the Sparrow Children's Center, it's to Children's, it's to the Childrens Center for the whole region and you will get the care you need."
The afternoon announcement carries extra weight for parents because pediatric specialists are in short supply. Some feared, MSU faculty practicing here in Lansing, would move to Grand Rapids. The university recently teamed up with state-of-the-art DeVos Children's Hospital there.
"We look forward to growing that partnership, but we are very much intent and serious about growing our presence here in Lansing," Dean Marsha Rappley, with MSU's College of Human Medicine said.
Rappley says the consolidation echoes that intent, and will also help the university bring more doctors to mid-Michigan.
"We think it's really going to help us with recruitment," she said.
University and Sparrow leaders say they are currently working to find a home for those consolidated pediatric services. At this point, the Sparrow Professional Building is the preferred site due to its proximity to the hospital.
Longterm, Swan says the partners would like to see a brand new building. Parents could see changes as early as this summer, with a new pediatric resource and referral service. The number will serve as a single contact point for all specialty care by Sparrow Hospital and the MSU HealthTeam.
Building changes will take longer because renovations will be involved. The timeline for that work has not been determined.

Open Movie Editor – New Release 0.0.20081029
October 30, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments
Popular Linux non-linear video editor, Open Movie Editor, released a new version yesterday – version 0.0.20081029.
It's been 5 months since the last OME update and it seems that lead developer, Richard Spindler, has been busy on a couple of side projects at the same time – specifically a movie called McFinnen & Wallace.
Open Movie Editor's latest release covers a myriad of smaller changes, all of which can be perused in the Change Log. Perhaps most interesting amongst the changes is a dependency regression to an older version of Libquiktime, apparently because many distributions have been lax in upgrading to the latest version of that library.
The latest version of OME can be downloaded from the project's website.

So, a data miner from Reddit has found some sexily controversial stuff about VIP Membership. The data doesn't tell if this is a subscription or use real money (AKA UNCLEAR, UNCONFIRMED WHAT SO EVER). Some of the effects seem horribly ridiculous (Teleport to Friend, really?). An April Fool or will Anet shoot his both legs?
The floor is yours, Duderino.
Anet's response here: https://forum-en.gui...e/5#post3474276
This is a testing branch. We conduct internal experiments for various territories on our testing branches. This particular experiment is not being tested for the West.
As always, keep in mind that we test a lot more than we ship, so data-mining is no guarantee of anything. If we have announcements to make about future content, we'll make them through the usual official channels.

Leon Hiebert was pastor of Andover Assembly of God (Generations Church A/G) from 1989 to 2009. He is a Viet Nam veteran who spent 10 years in the US Navy most of the time as a corpsman serving with the Marine Corps. A native of Belleville, Kan., Hiebert is semi retired and lives in Andover with his wife, Sharon. He is a school bus driver for USD 385, Andover, Kansas.
Scripture: Acts 20:20 NIV You know that I have not hesitated to preach anything that would be helpful to you but have taught you publicly and from house to house.
Observation: In the field of optometry, we refer to people having perfect eye sight as having 20/20 vision. Here in Acts 20:20 Paul was speaking to the elders of the church at Ephesus. I have heard people referring to this verse as giving a 20/20 vision for the church. There must be both public meetings AND from house to house.
Application: Being a part of a congregation of believers who meet publically and regularly is an important part of my Christian life. But just as important is my life at home. My church should be concerned that I attend the weekly public meetings, but they should also be concerned about getting the Word into my life at home.
Prayer: Lord, I was so blest by the public meeting this past Sunday. I sensed Your Presence in our worship and in the ministry of the Word. I am also enjoying Your Presence as I study your Word here at home. Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

Netflix is more popular among couch potatoes than investors a year after its polarizing decision to raise U.S. prices for video subscription services by as much as 60 percent. The unexpected twist that Netflix announced a year ago Thursday, July 12, 2012, triggered mass customer cancellations and a sell-off in its stock that has wiped out more than $11 billion in shareholder wealth.
