La Luna is not a new, bling, bling address, but a modern classic. At the helm is Catherine Delaunay, who came to Paris 15 years ago. "After Hotel School. Nice, I wanted to get to know the scene in Paris, I worked at some top addresses, that was better than Hotel School", she recalls.
Ms Delaunay says restaurant work is tough, especially for women, it's either make or break. "Several times I decided to quit, but cooking and running a restaurant becomes a passion", she admits. When the opportunity arrived to take over a little restaurant in the Villiers area of Paris, "I jumped in with both feet, called it La Luna, because I'd just been in Spain and there was a hit song with that name, I couldn't get out of my head!"
Not really a great meat eater, Delaunay decided only fish, and not just any old Findus; the best. Following another Spanish trip Delaunay returned to Paris with "La Plancha" then a totally new way of fast grilling fish, sea-food (or meat) on a very hot flat grill.
The beginning was difficult, "some people didn't appreciate fish cooked rosé, but that's how it's best, n'est pas?" There's no formula, just A La Carte, chic bright décor, the equipe led by Director du Salle, Pascal Polturat. Wines of the month are well priced, many by the glass 10€. Bottles include a fine White Burgundy from Chanson Pere et Fils 2006 43€. Lovely red Saint Joseph, Les Lauves de Jean-Luc Colombo 38€.
Last weeks' special lunch starter was, carpaccio of cernire, a delicate fish from deep waters, read, merou. Served simply, a drizzle of olive oil, zests of Menton lemon, topped with herring eggs. "Lots of Omega 3", said Delaunay. That was followed with a right "royal" Daurade Royale, presented at table wrapped in the banana skin in which it had been cooked to perfection (see picture). There's an excellent selection of, say, turbot, wild sea-bass, monkfish, sole. Yes, expensive, but go and check out prices of top fish at Daguerre Marée, and La Luna's not a bad deal at all. No washing up!
Finish with Baba au Rhum for an excellent surprise. It's seriously big, if you can't finish, the divine Ms Delaunay will pop it in a special box. Tastes delicious for breakfast!
Christophe Péle left Le Jardin at Le Royal Monceau to set up Bigarrade, his own canteen in the 17th, close to Marché des Batignolles. A small green and white airy space, with annoying low slung lights that thump you when you get up to leave the table! Apart from les killer lamps, the atmosphere is calm and zen. Péle, works with deep concentration in his open kitchen with a bar that seat three if you want to have a meal/cookery course.
The 4-course lunch, fixed menu is terrific value and lovingly presented by a very attentive staff. It's all fixed menu, midi and soir. If you have allergies or dislikes just tell them.
Péle changes everything daily, but you might taste: A trio of rosé tuna, scallops à la plancha with spinach and wasabi, and marinated red mullet with cauliflower and coriander. Next tender langoustine with La Mipuna a fragrant flower, and goat yogurt. Mains include a perfect Merlot de Noirmoutier, crunchy green asparagus and emulsion d'asparagus. Delicate, perfect with White Burgundy, Savennieres-Les Genets Damien Laureau 2004 (35€).
A touch of cheese, with a sprinkle of honey-cake is followed by a trio of pudds, Compotée de Mangues, Coriander jelly and soothing créme de cassis with white chocolate mousse.

What's nicer than a Valentine's card from a secret admirer? A Valentine's card with CHOCOLATE STUCK ON IT! I can't take credit for this idea, I first saw something similar by another blogger* and I knew it would be appreciated by Mr (if not I'm always willing to help out, kind soul that I am).
I was somewhat limited by the offerings in Tesco Metro. I'd have liked a [take you on a] Picnic or a [hot] Topic but there you go. Stick the bars onto card with double sided tape and write your message around them, yummy in your tummy.

Wispa Gold (Sainsbury's)
After hearing about this bar making a comeback I have been asking in my local branch of WH Smiths daily to see if they had any news on when it would be available. I then happen to do my weekly shop in Sainsbury's, and there these bars were. They were just sitting on the shelf next to all the other chocolate bars, no big promotion, just a rather shiny wrapper. Obviously I picked up a stash, as it is only available for 'a limited time', and it's best to be cautious!
I love the pretty shiny wrapper, and peeling it back, there was a gorgeous smell of caramel and chocolate. Okay, it is official, this bar is dangerous. The caramel section takes up nearly half of the bar, and is liquid and gooey. As you bite in, take care as the runny caramel may well try to attack. The taste is perfect though, this is proper full flavour rich, buttery caramel brilliance. This is in conjunction with a base of bubbly Wispa chocolate. The textures in this bar are just gorgeous, the outer layer of chocolate cracks to the smooth liquid caramel, and then the aerated chocolate is both chunky, but lovely and easy to bite through. Everything screams chocolate heaven about this bar, I just loved it. Perfect caramel, perfect chocolate, perfect combination of flavours. Hope I bought enough of them!
After my lack of enthusiasm for KitKat Caramel, this just goes to show how the simpler flavours can be put together to make a bar that I really can get excited about.

Lots of "perfect" statements in that post and how right you are, the bar is indeed great and a perfect mix of lovely chocolate and the required amount of caramel, basically not too much. Only bought one as didn't think I'd be too keen, how wrong I was. Back to Sainsbury's tomorrow for me. Can see these selling well and being around for a while. I hope.

You make me want more! I popped into my local Sainsbury's in Newbury to get some things this evening, 1st thing i saw was the promotional display in front of me when i was going a totally different way, so had to go the opposite way to get them, so grabbed 2 bars then thought no, 2 more just in case. I finished all 4, maybe i should go & get some more? A whole box maybe mmmm... maybe a birthday present, my birthday is in a few weeks...
By the way great post, this is the 1st time I've read your blog after searching for Wispa on twitter. Thanks!

An old favourite returns, eh, cinabar?
You know what I am hoping for? Yes, you do!
I would also like a Galaxy Ripple with caramel running through the middle.

Had a bite of Sam's. Nicer than I thought and I'm no fan of caramel!
Rolos are the right size for me.
Special edition bars that need to happen? Bounty with little bits of lime in the coconut!

nicster09 - glad you found the blog! ;-) Love having new readers! I think a whole box is a reasonable purchase, especially as the sell by dates are next year... plenty of time!
Paulham - Galaxy Ripple Caramel - now that could work!
Nli10 - How about a Bounty with a hint of cherry? If so Cherry Ripe might appeal: http://foodstufffinds.blogspot.com/2009/02/cadburys-cherry-ripe-double-dipped-with.html

Apple's Call Brings Insights, From China To Appliances
Apple Inc.'s upside surprises Tuesday showed once again that Wall Street investors and analysts don't necessarily see the whole picture of the company's business.
The gadget maker's shares have risen 9.2% Wednesday to $611.52 after Apple said its profits nearly doubled to $11.6 billion in its second quarter, bolstered largely by the iPhone, which sold 35.1 million units worldwide.
As with every Apple event, details are being picked apart as people try to analyze the company's hour-long conference call. (Find the live blog of it here.)
Below are a few insights that emerged:
* China has become very important, very fast. As fears bubbled up about Apple's potential iPhone sales slowdown in the U.S., few analysts looked to international markets to pick up the slack. But the Americas now account for roughly a third of Apple's total revenue–while iPhone sales grew five-fold in China compared to the year-earlier quarter.
* China is hard to track. Accurate predictions are hampered by China's massive geographic size and population. Another factor is the unprecedented growth of China's middle class, which means more people have more money to buy products like the ones Apple makes.
* Apple's "halo effect" is as strong as ever. Tim Cook, Apple's chief executive, said sales of the company's Mac computers jumped more than 60% in China, largely because of the strong brand the iPhone and iPad tablet computer have created.
* IPhones remain Apple's strongest product. Revenue from the nearly five-year old device, and related products and services, jumped 85% from a year earlier and formed 57.9% of Apple's total sales. A lot of that growth can be attributed to the company's increasing market penetration: the device is now available at 230 wireless carriers in more than 100 countries. Last year, it was available in at 186 carriers in 90 countries.
* The strength of the iPhone can also become a weakness. When iPhone sales missed analyst expectations in the company's fourth quarter, ended Sept. 24 (just before the iPhone 4S was announced), the company's revenue growth was dramatically slower.
* IPad demand is high, but supply is an issue. The iPad missed analyst expectations despite selling nearly 11.8 million units, with Cook noting the company was "supply constrained" on the latest model. He pointed out, however, that the iPad has reached 67 million units sold in two years; the Mac took 24 years, the iPod took five and the iPhone took three. "It's a profound product," Cook said.
* Apple isn't keen on convergence. Cook thinks the tradeoffs involved in melding a laptop and tablet–an idea pushed by companies such as Microsoft Corp. and Intel Corp.–won't please consumers. "You can converge a toaster and a refrigerator, but those thing are probably not going to be pleasing to the user."
(A retort, in a Twitter post from a Microsoft spokesman, compared the converged devices made possible by its forthcoming Windows 8 software to a toaster-oven. "Those seem pretty popular," the tweet said).
* Apple is sending more signals about patent peace. Lawsuits filed by Apple and its competitors are raging around the world. Cook said he has always "hated litigation" and that he would prefer to settle, but won't allow Apple inventions to be copied willy-nilly. "We need people to invent their own stuff," he said.

WAREHAM — Laine Andre Bilodeau, 66, of Wareham, MA died unexpectedly on March 19, 2014. He was the son of the late Frederick A. & Yvonne (Laine) Bilodeau.
Laine was a spirited and jolly soul. He enjoyed riding his bike & his men's fellowship breakfasts, but most of all volunteering. He could be found just about anywhere service was needed. From delivering food & hugs to the homeless with Church of the Good Shepherd, to meals on wheels with the Senior Center, Laine devoted his life to helping those in need. He spent over 30 yrs. with the Tabernacle of Praise & loved singing and playing keyboard. He also generously did janitorial work there as well. He lived his life in service of others and is a shining example of what we should aspire to.
He will be greatly missed by many including his adoptive family the Anestis, Pastor Daniel Pierce & the Tabernacle, friends @ the Nazarene, Damien's Pantry, Multi-Service Center, and many more.
A memorial service will be held 3/29/14 @ 1pm @ the Tabernacle. Donations are to be made to the Tabernacle of Praise, specify for Laine Bilodeau in memo line.

This is in spite of rising oil prices and interest rates threatening the broader economic recovery," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Ping Chew. "In the next few years, most banks should continue with these improvements, although the pace of such improvements may be moderated by risks in the horizon." There was a significant increase in the number of bank rating upgrades in 2005,...

Winning the OpenDocument vs. OpenXML war
In August 2005 Peter Quinn, now retired Chief Information Officer of Massachusetts, decided that OpenDocument was the best way to store documents with the guarantee that they would be able to be opened 10, 30, 50 years from now. For a state government, this is particularly important. He led Massachusetts toward OpenDocument and OpenOffice.org. The move, which sparked controversy and ferocious lobbying, is likely to end-up in history books (and while we're at it, I'll mention that history books in particular ought to be accessible 50, 100, 1000 years from now!).

This should fix most of them. The 5 outstanding errors should clear up once #3696 and #3695 are sorted out.
For the record, most of the errors were due to the use of
{{ some_var }}
 - ReST automatically adds
 tag anyway, so we were ending up with

...

. I've fixed this by just doing {{ some_var }} .
The next problem was related to this - ReST was generating
 tags around things which we were putting into header tags. I've used the removetags filter to strip any
's from header tags to stop this. It's likely that this could be replaced with striptags instead to remove all other html tags in the headers.
Finally, I've escaped a few variables that should have been escaped (mainly things which haven't gone through ReST like tag names,etc).

Jan. 24, 2012 -- There has been a dramatic drop in the rate of diabetes-related amputations in the U.S., and experts attribute the improvement to better management of risk factors that lead to the loss of feet and legs.
The amputation rate declined by 65% among adults with diabetes in a little over a decade, the CDC reports.
Foot and leg amputations occurred in 4 out of every 1,000 adults with diabetes in 2008, compared to 11 out of every 1,000 in 1996, the CDC reports.
Non-injury-related amputation rates were still eight times higher among those with diabetes than adults without the disease.
Nevertheless, the decline shows that efforts to reduce the complications of diabetes are having a major impact, says American Diabetes Association President of Medicine and Science Vivian Fonseca, MD.
"This is very encouraging and important news for people with diabetes," he says. "The decline confirms the tremendous progress we have made in translating research into practice."
Diabetes-Related Amputations Down
Nerve damage or neuropathy is a common complication of diabetes, especially among people who have had the disease for many years.
Poor control of diabetes, such as prolonged high blood sugar, low insulin levels, and high blood pressure, are believed to be major contributors to diabetes-related nerve damage.
According to this new study, foot and leg amputation rates serve as an important gauge of the effectiveness of efforts to reduce diabetes complications by controlling these risk factors.
Researchers analyzed data from two national surveys to determine the prevalence of diabetes-related leg and foot amputations in adults aged 40 and over.
Among the major findings:
- Between 1996 and 2008, the rate of leg and foot amputations among adults with diabetes declined by 65%, with men having three times the rate of amputations as women (6 per 1,000 vs. 2 per 1,000).
- Amputation rates were higher among blacks than whites (5 per 1,000 vs. 3 per 1,000).
- Those over the age of 75 had the highest rate of amputations.
The study will appear in the February issue of the journal Diabetes Care.

After traveling more than 10,000 kilometers in two weeks, the Afghan Youth Orchestra is heading back to Kabul -- following performances in Washington, D.C., New York City, and Boston. Secretary of State John Kerry hailed the group as "ambassadors of peace," as the young people used music to show the positive changes made in Afghanistan over the last 10 years.

I've been using qcad for a little while and am very happy with it.
I just purchased the prof. edition to support ribbonsoft (v188.8.131.52) and have found that I still have problems with text with special characters.
I'm running qcad on Ubuntu 10.10, 32-bit..
- won't write danish characters (æøå) on the drawing - they look fine in the text window.
v18.104.22.168 solves (1) - but
- Won't show certain special chars f.ex. superscript 1 and 2 (I guess it is those - 3,4,5,6.. is just below and look fine).
- Won't show correctly display special chars (such as "(4)", Degrees symbol etc.) - even though they look fine in the popup text window. They are displayed as ?
Any ideas as to what I could try?

Why does the RNC continue to "major in the minors?"
I continue to be amazed how the GOP's national leadership can invent ways to draw attention to itself in odd ways, something my wife describes as "majoring in the minors."
The latest is a tweet from a MSNBC minion based on a Cheerios commercial that is set to air during the Super Bowl. This commercial features an interracial couple explaining to their six-year-old daughter that she's about to have a sibling. Last year, another Cheerios commercial featuring the same family unleashed strains of racial venom against as well as support for Cheerios stepping into a realm of diversity that most advertisers are unwilling to explore.
The newest commercial became the predicate for an odd, a little tacky, but in my opinion, a mild tweet from MSNBC.
Maybe the rightwing will hate it, but everyone else will go awww: the adorable new #Cheerios ad w/ biracial family. http://t.co/SpB4rQDoAR
— msnbc (@msnbc) January 30, 2014
I can understand why MSNBC would say this violates their standards. It is dumb and taunting. Welcome to the Internet.
But given several other controversies involving MSNBC's on-air talent delivering mocking comments, the general tone of the discourse from much of conservative talk radio and television, the venom from the deep recesses of the Internet and a few conservative lawmakers who have said unbelievably crass things about the president or liberals in general, this tweet should have evaporated silently into cyberspace.
Except that Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus decided this was offensive and urged conservatives to boycott MSNBC.
He got an apology from MSNBC's top brass, the tweet was deleted and the employee who sent it out under the MSNBC label reportedly was fired.
Now Priebus declares the network is "on probation," which I guess means that MSNBC will never again get GOP politicians and committee staffers to appear as guests if MSNBC's talent says something he doesn't like. Six months from now, I don't want to hear him complain that conservatives can't get their message out on MSNBC.
In my opinion, Priebus isn't really offended. A word like right-wingers is just as vague as a word like the Left or Lefties. These are political dog whistles to rally the base. I don't like it anymore than code words and generalizations made about African-Americans, which I've heard for a lifetime. But if I reacted to every intemperate racial or political remark that reach my ears in a week, I wouldn't have time for work.
The reality is that Priebus has gotten concessions from MSNBC, itself an odd outcome. However, if he has time to police MSNBC's tweets, I'd hope he would spend time to police the less than civil discourse that some — note I did not say all — on the political Right engage in.
In this instance, MSNBC policed its house, even under duress. If the GOP expects to expand its base, I'd say it's time for Priebus to do the same.

One of the lead investigators is Virginia Tech Police Chief Wendell Flinchum. A local officer went to training school with Chief Flinchum and has some insight on the big question: were they ready?
They're both part of the elite one percent across the country to train with the FBI National Academy.
Lieutenant Mark Farmer with the Aiken Department of Public Safety says he and the chief learned side-by-side how to handle attacks of this magnitude.
It's a small-town campus police department handling the worst school shooting in US history, from the initial killing spree, to the ongoing investigation.
"He's a good professional officer, he does a great job, and he's doing the best he can," says Farmer.
Farmer also went to the FBI National Academy. He says that training is helping Chief Flinchum lead the investigation. But, he also says nothing could have prepared him for Monday's mass-murder.
"We take all the precautions we can. But when you have an individual that's willing to take his own life...there's very little you can do to stop it," says Farmer.
Still, there are questions about whether Cho Seung Hui's recent behavior could have predicted the crime and if police could have stopped his second round.
But, Farmer says the chief did the best he could with the information he had.
"Unless you know the totality of the circumstances, you really can't play armchair quarterback and say the police did this or that."
Now, Farmer and his classmates from the Academy are flooding their website with words of encouragement and praise for using their training to respond to a shooting that left almost three dozen dead.
"I can't even put myself in his shoes. I hope to god I never have to," says Farmer.
Farmer says many of his classmates have emailed the chief to find out how he's holding up, but so far they haven't heard anything back.
Another officer from this area knows Wendell Flinchum. Jasper Cooke, the Director of Public Safety at Augusta State, also knows him.

News & Press
For its second London programme, the visiting Boston Ballet presented a triple bill of works by living choreographers, to highlight its commitment to the more modern side of the repertoire. It's the sort of mixed bill that every international company seems to offer these days, so in a way it presents more of a challenge. How do you distinguish yourself from every other ballet company on the block?
The Second Detail (1991) is one of William Forsythe's finest works, one in which the heady perversion of his supreme classicism, is most glowingly on display. And here the Boston dancers really did stand out. They delivered his nonchalant brilliance with a dynamic glee. Ballerinas used their long legs like sexy weapons; their male partners ate up the space like hungry panthers. Even the electronic score by Thom Williams, a composer who usually views music as a punching bag, was bearable.
Polyphonia (2001), by Britain's Christopher Wheeldon, is a work often seen in the UK and the challenge for the Boston troupe was to bring something different to its presentation. This they didn't quite achieve, though what I did like about them was how their strong sense of personality maximized the languid mystery of Wheeldon's choreography.
Bella Figura (1995), which closed programme two, is one of Jiří Kylián's most annoying and tedious ballets, so all credit to the dancers for making it look as good as it did. Kylián is a great choreographer with an immense facility for making steps, but he undermines his talent with pretentious trappings and self-important nonsense. Some of this piece is very beautiful and phrased with remarkable fluidity, but there is far too much empty-headed posturing. The mishmash recorded score, including Pergolesi, Vivaldi, and Lukas Foss, is a mess.

NAACP Calls for Passage of Legislation To Protect Workers Who Choose To Form Unions
The Issue:
The Employee Free Choice Act will make sure workers have a fair chance to exercise their democratic right to choose a union. It does this by making it easier for a union to act as a mediator for workers if the majority of workers have provided authorized signatures indicating that they want the union to act as their representative. The Employee Free Choice Act simply lets the workers decide – not the corporation – whether to form their union through a majority sign up or an election. Under the legislation workers can still have an election if they want one including a secret ballot election. Instead of their company controlling how workers organize, workers will have the choice of which path to use.
Currently, union workers earn 26% more in median weekly wages than non-union workers; unionized women earn 31% more than their non-union counterparts, and black union workers earn 29% more than non-union African Americans. Furthermore, 75% of union workers have health benefits, compared to 49% of non-union workers. 69% of union workers have short-term disability coverage, compared to 30% of their non-union counterparts. Finally, 82% of union workers get life insurance, compared with 51% of non-union workers.
The impact of unions – ensuring that all working Americans are treated well and share in the prosperity – cannot be overstated. Despite the continuing strength and advocacy power of unions, however, some employers continue to treat workers poorly, not paying them a fair wage or providing them with necessary benefits: the purchasing power of workers' wages is 5% below where it stood 30 years ago. CEO pay has continued to rise and is currently more than 1,000 times the earnings of the average worker. The richest 13,000 US families have nearly as much income as the poorest 200 million combined. And some employers continue to fight the legitimate organization of unions. 70% of American employers in manufacturing threaten to close the plant if workers choose a union. Furthermore, in the 1950's, when 30% of workers belonged to unions, only a few hundred workers suffered retaliation for trying to organize a union; in 1969, the number or workers suffering retaliation was just over 6,000 and by the 1990's more than 20,000 workers each year were victims of discrimination when they tried to organize a union.

Two more suspected militants have been killed in an ongoing special counterterrorism operation in Russia's North Caucasus Republic of Daghestan.
Daghestani law-enforcement officials say the two armed men were killed near the village of Maidanovskoye in Daghestan's central Untsukul district on July 8.
It was reported on July 7 that one police officer died and five suspected militants were killed in the operation, which was launched on July 6.
Three police officers have been wounded.
The special operation in the area continues.
Daghestan and other republics in Russia's restive North Caucasus region have been plagued by violence linked to Islamic extremism and organized crime for years, with scores of people being killed and injured.

In this picture taken on Dec. 16, 2011, residents wait to cross a road in Batey 43 in Villa Altagracia, about 25 miles north of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. In November, the Dominican Supreme Court upheld a 2007 law aimed at reducing the use of fake documents, which has led the government to confiscate or annul birth certificates for the children of Haitian immigrants, many of whom were given work visas in previous decades that the government now refuses to recognize. Nonprofit groups estimate that at least 1,600 Dominicans have been denied their documents as a result of the law, and some activists worry the government will continue to target the estimated 500,000 to 1 million ethnic Haitians living in the Dominican Republic now that human rights activist Sonia Pierre has died. Pierre, a human rights activist who fought discrimination against poor Dominicans of Haitian descent since she was a child, died of a heart attack on Dec. 4, 2011. (AP Photo/Manuel Diaz)

TENHORNEDBEAST - Hunts & WarsTenHornedBeast's third album for Cold Spring Records is titled "Hunts & Wars". Recorded over a three year period from 2006 to 2009 this album introduces subtle changes to the established TenHornedBeast sound with shorter delicate interludes separating longer tracks that rage with heavy distortion and doom-drone barbarism."Hunts & Wars" progresses the established TenHornedBeast sound using leaden, sub-tuned bass guitar to create rhythms and riffs that dominate a battlefield of vast ritual percussion and droning walls of electric dissonance, creating epic and expansive textures that by turns burn with frost and freeze with fire.Heavily influenced by the oneiric visions of Robert E Howard and Lord Dunsany. "Hunts & Wars" seeks to evoke the elemental, anti-modern fantasias of these writers and is presented in a lavish digipak designed by noted American graphic designer Kevin Yuen (Sunn O))), Wolves In The Throne Room) to its full grotesque glory.The days have come when the steel will rule. Titans arise, monuments fall. Ballads of victory and defeat are sung aloud as from the highest steps we are swept on to the eternal Hunts and Wars.Presented in a 6-panel, spot metallic finish digipak.

|November Training Weekend Report
|Written by Rob Kelly
|Tuesday, 27 November 2012 15:14
This wasn't looking promising. It was Friday afternoon, a few hours before 30 or so EUOC members were due to meet to begin the 4 hour drive to the Lake District, and I was sat at my computer looking at the weekend's weather forecast. Staring back at me were those little dark clouds with several rain drops underneath, severe weather warnings and headlines telling me of the "torrential" rain that was about to bring the worst floods for years to western parts of the UK. And I was about to travel to the wettest place in Britain. I decided it was probably a wise decision to pack a waterproof.
Later that evening I was sat on one of the two minibuses headed to Rookhow, a bunkhouse in the southern Lake District that was to be our base for the weekend. Apart from one of the buses suffering from some slight navigational issues (something you would have thought could have been avoided with 15 orienteers on board) we arrived safe and sound and got settled down ready for a hard couple of days training.
The plan for Saturday was to do two training sessions on some of the best terrain the UK has to offer. We were lucky enough to be able to join in with a training camp organised by the regional junior squads so a big thank you goes to the organising team of that who provided us with maps and the control hanging teams who let us get on with some quality training. The morning's area, Bishop Wood, was a classic Lake District deciduous woodland with some low visibility pine forest at one end that provided a different navigational challenge. Fresh legs meant enthusiasm was high and everyone was soon out enjoying the remarkably dry (although admittedly rather cold) day, honing their technique for the coming season. After lunch we hopped back into the buses for a quick drive to a different area, Summer House Knott. Thanks to some efficient organisation by Alice we divided up into pairs and kicked off the session with a star relay to give us some head to head race practice. Immediately it was obvious that this afternoon would pose different challenges, mainly that the terrain was physically much tougher. Steep slopes, lots of rocks and felled trees meant you really had to work hard.
Conversation round the dinner table that night focused on the training and, after Jack and Simon's last minute mince dash, which club member would be best to eat. It's probably best a definitive conclusion wasn't reached. The evening's entertainment was comprised of what seemed like a pretty lengthy Cranium session and a form of pictorial Chinese whispers that revealed exactly how certain people's brains worked. The less said about this here the better!
Sunday morning saw more than a few tired looking faces munching on some fine Haines-made porridge. We were due to be racing on an area called Greta Gorge, a steep wooded area on the side of Latrigg near Keswick. On the whole journey there I was keeping an eye out for the weather front that would bring this torrential rain that had long been forecast but I couldn't see anything. Could we really get so lucky as to not get rained on for a whole weekend in the Lakes when other parts of the country were experience devastating floods? There had been rain overnight however that had made conditions tough, with some of the steeper slopes turning into potential mud slides. Never the less there were some fine performances from the EUOC contingent to wrap up the weekend including 2nd and 3rd on the 5km blue course from Lauren Eyre and Bryony Harding respectively. The longest course saw EUOC alumni Hector Haines prevail over the 6.7km distance with Simon Gardner, another alumni member, achieving 3rd place. All that was left was to pile back into the buses and begin the long journey home. I think everyone would agree the weekend was a great success and went off without any major hitches. A big thanks to Vice Captain Jack Baker for organising everything and also to mother nature for being so kind to us, we may not get so lucky next year!

New Delhi: BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi yesterday said the country is witnessing his party's "tsunami" and no one can stop it from coming to power.
Winding up a day-long hectic campaigning in Telangana with a massive election meeting in Hyderabad last night, he said when he started the campaign, it was only a storm but it has now turned into a tsunami.
"There will be no escape for Congress and its allies," he told the gathering at Hyderabad's L B Stadium
Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N Chandrababu Naidu and actor Pawan Kalyan, who recently floated a political party Jana Sena, shared the dais with the Gujarat chief minister.
Addressing the fourth meeting in Telangana, Modi said like other parts of the country, the tsunami was also sweeping through Telangana.
Terming the bad governance of the Congress as the root of all the problems, he promised to usher in development to meet the aspirations of 125 crore people.
He promised that, if voted to power, he would bring back black money stashed away in foreign banks, adding he would use every law of the land and if necessary, amend the laws and take help of any country for the purpose.
"I will bring back every rupee and use it for the welfare of poor," he said, adding part of the money would be used to pay back to the salaried class who are honestly paying their taxes.
He pointed out that the Supreme Court yesterday pulled up the government for doing nothing to comply with its order directing it to form a special investigation team to bring back the black money.
Describing Telangana and Seemandhra as two motherless newborn, Modi said he was ready to take responsibility of nurturing them with care.
"If I get opportunity to serve you, I will give you in seven months what they have not given you in 60 years," he said amid loud cheers.
Modi urged people to reject the Congress as it insulted the sons of soil from Andhra Pradesh including former president Sanjiva Reddy, former prime minister P V Narasimha Rao and former chief minister T Anjaiah.
Earlier, addressing meetings in three other Telangana towns, he promised to change the destiny of people of Telangana, which is set to become India's 29th state on June 2.
He also assured people that he would solve the problems faced by lakhs of Telangana youth working as labourers in the Gulf countries and also vowed to check the farmers' suicides.
Modi targeted both the Congress and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) for promoting dynasty politics and said their only aim is to loot.
"A family in Delhi has already destroyed India. Will you commit the same mistake here," he asked the people in an obvious reference to the family of Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) chief K Chandrasekhara Rao.
Modi pointed out that four members of a family are in fray and wondered if they did not find Telangana boys and girls capable of contesting elections.
Chandrasekhara Rao, his daughter, son and nephew are also contesting elections.
"Telangana is infancy stage. It needs special care and love which only BJP can give. It can't be allowed to die by giving it in the hands of others," Modi said.

EXCLUSIVE: Deadpool Dons the Venom Symbiote in "Back In Black" #1 First Look
Comic Books
A chance encounter at Tunde Adebimpe's table at the Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival led to my discovery of Ben Herman's impressive collection of Beautiful Dreamer sketches. In his sketchbook's pages, the lovely telepathic New God from Jack Kirby's Forever People is given her due by Dan DeCarlo, Dick Ayers, Ramona Fradon, Gilbert Hernandez, Mark Bode, Tania Del Rio, Michael Wm. Kaluta, Danielle Corsetto, John Bogdanove, Todd Nauck and many more. Go feast your eyes, and check out Herman's entire assortment of ComicArtFans.com galleries — his Star Wars and Avengers sketchbooks are nothing to sneeze at, either.
As a longtime fan of Richard Howell's work, I particularly enjoy the piece you've chosen to illustrate this article. And the mere idea of Dan DeCarlo drawing a Fourth World character is too much fun for words to express. Well done on both counts, Ben.

Letters: S.D. mayoral race
From the start of what continues to be an acrimonious mayoral campaign, it has been clear that Councilman Carl DeMaio and U.S. Rep. Bob Filner patently and passionately disagree with one another on how to address "almost" every issue that confronts San Diego. Last Friday evening, Oct. 26, was a rare "almost" occasion in Little Italy, when both candidates found common ground in the auditorium at Washington Elementary School.
Of the questions that were asked, three dealt with two issues that not only have far-reaching implications for thousands of residents and hundreds of businesses in our Core/Columbia and Little Italy neighborhoods, but for the rest of our downtown neighborhoods as well.
Both candidates had been given documents well in advance, drafted by the Little Italy Residents Association (LIRA) delineating SANDAG's Bus Lot and BRT Plans.
The first issue: SANDAG's plan to build a giant, layover bus lot in one of our neighborhoods. The proposed bus lot would operate 21 hours a day. It would endanger personal health and safety, diminish property values, drive away businesses and discourage future development.
Both candidates agreed to oppose this plan and use their influence as mayor to make sure it never reached fruition. They agreed that bus lots belong in industrial areas and not in neighborhoods.
The second issue: SANDAG's Bus Rapid Transit Plan for downtown. It proposes up to forty-nine 60-foot-long, articulated buses caravaning up and down Broadway, almost around the clock, and looping through neighborhoods to and from the layover bus lot. The C Street trolley, one block north of Broadway, does the same job without adversely affecting neighborhoods, while moving passengers faster and more efficiently.
Both candidates agreed the redundancy did not make sense from a logical or fiscal point of view. They both spoke to the idea of expanding our successful trolley system, promoting creative alternatives like Car2go, making downtown more walking- and bicycle-friendly and keeping buses to a minimum.
When asked if they would support or oppose SANDAG's BRT plan for downtown as it is currently designed, they both agreed they would not support it and would use their position as mayor to influence others as well.
We thank Rep. Bob Filner and Councilman Carl DeMaio for their candor and are grateful for their support. We look forward to working with our next mayor to keep San Diego and its downtown moving forward. – Anne MacMillan Eichman, LIRA president
Please vote for Bob Filner. He is an honest man, not in anybody's pocket. Nobody is pulling his strings like a puppet.
Honesty has always been needed in government, and the voice of the individual voter must be "heard in the land"!
Filner looks at you, not past you. – J.D. Fosberg, La Jolla
I've seen a lot of mudslinging, but nothing like the Breen cartoon of Bob Filner in [Friday's] U-T ("Scary Halloween costumes," Oct. 26).
Not only is it gross, in poor taste and stretched, beyond credulity, but Mr. Filner has absolutely no connection with Halloween. Why push it?
As a U.S. congressman, for years he has been chairman of the Veterans Committee and has improved health care and education for many thousands of vets, As president of the S.D. school board he has saved our city millions.
And you have the nerve to portray him as a monster or child! A retraction and an apology are in order. – Marv Gold, San Diego
The cartoon depicting Bob Filner as abnormal, like the ads from his opponent and your cartoon are the lowest form of slime. Making fun of what a person looks like is the earliest form of bullying. I don't live in the city, and am not interested in the race. But the opponent and yourself set bad examples for young people and perpetuate bad behavior. – B.H. Clemens, Fallbrook
Your front-page article ("DeMaio, Filner oppose broad education powers," Oct. 24) says it all. Bob Filner, a "tax and spend Democrat" states, "You've got to support Prop Z." Carl DeMaio states, "You can't throw money at the problem. You've got to reform the system itself."
I hope all the voters realize which statement makes more sense. Politicians like Filner have gotten our nation and city in financial trouble with his kind of thinking as the national debt keeps climbing by the trillions. – Joe E. Simpson, San Diego

The SA-9 GASKIN is a short-range, low-altitude self-propelled SAM-carrying system based on the BRDM-2 chassis. The vehicle carries quadruple SA-9 SAM launchers on a revolving mount in place of the KPV/PK machine gun turret. The missiles are usually fired in pairs against each target to increase the kill probability, with an interval between rounds of about five seconds. Reloading is performed manually and takes about five minutes. The 30 kilogram Mach 1.5 Strela-1 missile is 1.8 meters long and 0.12 meters in diameter with a wing span of 0.375 meters. It carries an HE-fragmentation warhead and proximity fuse with a lethal radius of 5 meters and damage radius of 7.6 meters. The original version of the Strela-1 was known as the 9M31 (SA-9A GASKIN Mod 0) and used an uncooled first-generation lead sulfide (PbS) infra-red (IR) seeker operating. This was supplemented by the 9M31M variant (SA-9B GASKIN Mod 1) which has an improved seeker providing greater target sensitivity and lock on ability. The minimum range of the 9M31 is 800 m and the maximum range 6500 m within altitude limits of 15 to 5200 m. The minimum range of the 9M31M is 560 meters and the maximum range 8000 meters (increasing to a possible 11000 meters when used in a tail-chase engagement) within altitude limits of 10 to 6100 meters. When engaging a head-on target the system has a considerably reduced range.
One SA-9 TEL (SA-9 Mod A, BRDM-2A1 or SA-9A TEL) in each battery is fitted with FLAT BOX A passive radar detection antenna, one either side of the hull above the front wheel housings, one under the left launch canisters pointing forward and one mounted on a small frame above the rear engine deck plate pointing rearwards to give 360ş coverage. The TEL without the FLAT BOX A system is known as the SA-9 Mod-B, BRDM-2A2 or SA-9B.The BRDM-2 transporter erector launcher (TEL) has the chain-driven belly wheels removed and the normal turret replaced by one with four ready to launch SA-9 container-launcher boxes. These are normally lowered to the horizontal when traveling to reduce the overall height of the vehicle. The vehicle crew of three consists of the commander, driver and gunner. An air-filtration and overpressure NBC system are standard.

The Tower At The Edge of Time by Lin Carter(2 ratings)
|Lin Carter
|The Tower At The Edge of Time
|Submitted by boye
(Sep 05, 2007)
This is an unusual fantasy/adventure that shows a meshing of several different influences. Elements of science fiction, sword and sorcery, and Burroughs style planetary adventures all sort of come together in this book. The primary character is Thane, a Conan prototype who travels from planet to planet seeking adventure and ...fun! He meets up with some nasty bad guys and takes off into the wastelands with a very hot babe in tow. However, it has all been a setup and soon Thane and his girl are captured and whisked away by a fellow straight out of Flash Gordon. Soon, the bad guys, Thane, his girlfriend, and the gnarly ship captain are off on a journey to find the most fabulous treasure that has ever existed or ever will. Thane is the key to the quest because it seems that he was formerly the guest of some very mysterious monks who safeguarded a fantastic/sacred jewel. Thane accidentally destroyed the jewel but not before it passed its knowledge into our hero....a knowledge that the baddies want to manipulate for evil.

Progress Housing Group retains Investors in People Accreditation
Published by lpriest for Progress Housing Group in Housing
Lancashire-based Progress Housing Group is celebrating after being awarded a prestigious accreditation for excellence in staff training and development.
Progress has been awarded the Investors in People accreditation for its ongoing improvements to staff training and development for the sixth successive time. Meaning the employer has been recognised by the body for over 15 years.
Since its launch in 1991, the Investors in People framework has been helping organisations deliver better performance and stronger, mutually beneficial, bonds with staff. It has become the business benchmark by which companies are gauged for the quality of the company/employee relationship.
In order to maintain the recognition, annual re-assessments are required that consider how the organisation identifies staff requirements, and measures staff satisfaction.
Feedback from the assessor reported how impressed they were with the dedication of Progress Housing Group and that staff genuinely felt recognised, valued and part of a team, with staff showing a real passion for what they do and a clear commitment to developing and delivering high quality services.
Jacqui De-Rose, Chief Executive of Progress Housing Group, said: "We are extremely pleased to have retained the Investors in People award for the sixth time running. It is a credit to all staff and a reflection of their commitment and dedication that we have maintained Investors in People status for over 15 years."
Progress will be visited annually to ensure that it is keeping its services at the level it should be with a full reassessment in 2017.

We will start taking sign up next week at Legion. It will consist of 4-5 persons on a team. Only 4 scores will be used each night. You will have to name who is playing that night so we can tell with handicaps what you have to shoot to beat the other team. I will have more rules and sheets available then. I will also post most of this in the next couple days or so. I think it will be $40 per person.
Any questions or suggestions please let me know soon. Thanks
