Terminal.app on Leopard supports full ANSI color and multi color profile and many encodings and treat japanese correctly but, one thing â"â" the changing the ANSI color is missing. When we use the Tiger, we can change the ANSI colors on Terminal.app using Terminal Colors Plugin. But this nice plugin cannot work with Leopard one.

Welcome to Day 3 of the Feminisms Fest synchroblog on the topic "What You Learned." Link up below on my blog,seeprestonblog.com, considering these questions: What surprised you this week? What did you take away from the discussion? What blog posts did you find particularly helpful? What questions do you still have?
Feminism was handed to me in whisper-shout by a poet prophet, and I was converted, like the first conversion, by love not an argument.
A few weeks ago I was chatting with one of the women I admire deeply, Sarah Bessey, and it was appropriate to confide in her something I've otherwise not quite made known.
Sarah, I said, we need your voice. Because I wasn't convinced by Rachel Held Evans, by Dianna Anderson, by any of these women we call friends. They made arguments, but you just kept on living. You kept on setting tables. You kept on inviting me over. That's what convinced me.
Now, don't get me wrong, I find Rachel Held Evans and Dianna Anderson invaluable and their minds in argumentation needed; but, in my journey, which is the only journey I have the authority to speak to, it was Sarah's poetic voice that drew me in.
The logic, the arguments, the careful exegesis, was the catechism that followed my belief, but my belief started in the fields where Sarah bangs together pots and pans and sings freedom songs.
Since then, I've done a bit more homework.
I know the arguments. I make them myself. I try and lend a hand in refining those arguments, helping keep them salient, pointed, focused.
But I also keep baking, because in the back of my mind, I haven't forgotten what brought me over in the first place: the wild field belief of a Canadian mama who dreamed big of her big God.
So what strikes me, looking back over these days of Feminisms Fest, considering what I learned, is that what sticks with me, still, are the posts in which I learned other's stories, when their whys were rooted in their who I ams, because this vagabond poet heart hears first that way.
Of course, not everyone does, so I celebrate and promote and commend to you Dianna and Rachel, because they do a freedom song their own way, to the same end. But if you ask me how I got here, I'll give a nod Sarah's way. (And Lauren Winner's.)
So when Antonia writes that a woman should hold forth the Body and Blood because a woman held the Body and Blood, I weep over the beauty.
When Emily takes on the whole of being a feminist, bra burning and laughter and read lines and story singing, I shout, Woman of valour!
When Nicki Minaj all but preaches against sexism, but has to still end it by asking that the clip not be used because she'll "sound stupid," I shake my head in sorrow. [Language warning.]
When a woman reclaims her personhood and worth, when a woman loves big for her son, when a woman weighs children when her world is turned upside down, I'm feeling the stir within me, the big-full-shouting-Holy-Ghost-God-is-with-us, stir.
So those of you who argue and argue well, women and men of valour! Please keep on! Please keep going! We need you!
But for those of you who argue through stories, through life lived, through baked goods and hung laundry, be encouraged. What I learned this week was how much I needed those stories, how much they still form me, how much they keep me going, how much they make me remember why St. Paul calls this whole life resisting systemic sin a fight.
Who knows, you may just be someone's Sarah Bessey.
There are worse things.

Gregory Town, Eleuthera and Jensen Beach Florida Celebrate 20th Anniversary as Sister Cities.
By: Gary Guertin, Talkin' Tourism on Florida's Treasure Coast (and Beyond)
(Jensen Beach, Florida) – The Jensen Beach, Florida 2010 Pineapple Festival played host once again for the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the Sister City relationship between Gregory Town, Eleuthera,Bahamas and Jensen Beach, Florida. A contingent of Eleutherans, coordinated by the Eleuthera Ministry of Tourism Office led by Jackie Gibson and Glenda Johnson, made the annual trip to provide authentic Bahamian flavor to this popular Treasure Coast event.
The Eleutherans represented the Bahamas well with a straw market featuring handcrafted Bahamian products, performances by The Brilanders and Dr. Sea Breeze, and the Junkanoo band that conducted several parades that had the crowd tapping their toes, swinging and swaying to the beat of the drums, brass, whistles and cow bells.
Good crowd at the festival.
On Friday morning prior to the opening of the festival, key representatives of the group including Avian Morely, lead Junkanoo'er, Glenda Johnson, Susan Culmer, Larry Cleare, Kingsley, Max and Kennedy appeared as guests on the radio show Talkin' Tourism on Florida's Treasure Coast (and Beyond) hosted by Gary Guertin with co-host Robin Hicks-Connors. The groups shared their enthusiasm for the Sister City relationship and enjoyment of their stay in Jensen Beach. A reception was held at the Courtyard Marriott-Hutchinson Island hosted by general manager Ed Griffith for the visiting Eleutherans.
The congregation of Port Salerno Church of God were treated to a Bahamian music fest after services
The Sister City relationship was forged in 1990 by Ron Rose, executive director of the Jensen Beach, Florida Chamber of Commerce and their membership. This relationship is very special as there are many Treasure Coast residents that have family heritage and cultural connections to the Islands of the Bahamas.
This year, with the assistance of Ms. Cheryl Longoria of Stuart, Florida, members of the group attended two church services and entertained the congregations after each service at each church. The Port Salerno Church of God and St. Monica's Episcopal Church in East Stuart were the participating churches, each with significant Bahamian background and heritage. According to Ms. Adrienne Patton a member of St. Monica's Episcopal Church, "The music made us feel as if we were in the islands".

The general pall of gloom enveloping India's economic prospects in the near term has left one constituency of business owners unaffected.
Women entrepreneurs across sectors expect their business to grow by nearly a hundred per cent over the next five years. This despite a sharp downward spike in the country's overall economic growth. In a series of online interviews with 150 women entrepreneurs in April this year, the verdict emerging was that business is booming.

By any measure, the new iPad has been a smash success, with Apple selling more than 3 million units in the product's first three days of availability.
Not surprisingly, the latest survey finds widespread customer satisfaction with the iPad compared with previous models.
Hands on Apple's new iPad (photos)
The new iPad, however, comes with its own set of pros and cons. Of course, we're talking about Apple so there was still a wide range of opinion about what the company's designers got right this time and where they need to return to the drawing board. (Do I hear "iPad 4" in the offing?)
But that's fodder for another day. In the meantime, what do you like about the Apple's newest iPad? We want to give iPad owners an opportunity to rate the new iPad's top features. Let us know in the accompanying poll -- and don't forget to sound off in the talkback section below.

The South Middle School girls completed a second straight unbeaten season, and the A.R. Rucker boys capped a sterling 13-1 campaign with a sweet revenge win Thursday.
Lancaster area middle school rivals A.R. Rucker and South each had something to cheer about in the season-ending doubleheader at the packed Lancaster High School gym.
The Lady Mustangs put the finishing touches on a banner 14-0 season with a 36-24 win over the rival Lady Rams in the opener.
As the resident "house band" at the Dollywood Theme Park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., it's estimated that the Kingdom Heirs sing to more than 2 million people each year – more than any other Southern gospel group.
They put on multiple performances each day from March through October.
When that ends, there is Christmas show that runs through Jan.1. And it's been that way since 1986.
That only gives the Kingdom Heirs about eight weeks a year to get out on the road.
Lancaster dropped a pair of Region IV-AAAA basketball losses to Blythewood on Tuesday night, but the news wasn't all bad for the Bruins on departing the Midlands.
The LHS boys, who dropped their second loss in three region games, learned that Ridge View, which downed the No. 10 Bruins 81-64 last Friday night at RVHS to forge a tie for the region lead, also lost on Tuesday night.
South Pointe notched a 72-68 win over the Ridge View Blazers to keep the teams tied at the top of region play.
INDIAN LAND Indian Land High School basketball senior night was one for the Warriors to savor on Thursday.
The IL teams completed a season's hoops sweep of the rival Buford Yellow Jackets.
The Lady Warriors rolled to a 78-40 victory and the IL boys capped the notable night with a 62-55 win over the Jackets.
Each game followed a similar trend for the winning Warriors. The IL teams took control in the third quarter to take command on the way to victory.
INDIAN LAND A high school media center is supposed to be one of the quietest places on campus during the school day, but for a brief, special moment that changed Friday afternoon at Indian Land High School.
Just after ILHS senior offensive lineman Sam Seigler signed to play football at The Citadel, an admiring group of students and teachers applauded the moment.
The forecast for a winter storm forced Lancaster County School District officials to cancel two high school basketball games scheduled for Friday night.
The Lancaster-Spring Valley Region IV-AAAA game scheduled for the Lancaster High School gym was postponed late Friday morning when Spring Valley High School officials contacted LHS and said they would be unable to travel after Richland County School officials canceled all after-school activities.
The Lancaster man who was one of the last people to see Deborah Cole alive still has $2,500 in reward money to offer for information about her death.
The Lancaster News ran an article last week about the July 9, 2000, death of Cole. The case, which hasn't been solved, was featured in the newspaper's ongoing series focusing on cold cases.
Franklin James said he was Cole's boyfriend at the time of her death. He said he dropped Cole off at a friend's house in the Midway area shortly after midnight on July 9 and never saw her again.
Dawn Smith Jordan offered the crowd at the ninth annual Matt Blackwell Foundation scholarship dinner a choice – to embrace faith or fear.
"What are you going to choose? To have faith or fall apart?" Jordan asked the crowd of more than 200 people at Lancaster Golf Club's Fairway Room on Tuesday. "Know that some good will come out of bad times."
A suspect wanted for a Jan. 16 murder at a Lancaster night club was arrested Friday afternoon.
The Lancaster Police Department arrested Demarcus Lewis Davis, 20, about 3:45 p.m., Capt. Harlean Howard said. Davis was found hiding in a closet at 703 Pardue St.
Davis has been charged with murder, assault and battery with intent to kill and two counts of possession of a gun during the commission of a violent crime.
HEATH SPRINGS – Heath Springs Town Council will financially support building efforts at the University of South Carolina at Lancaster.
In an unanimous vote Tuesday night, council opted to contribute $10,000 over five years to the new classroom building in the works for the USCL campus.
Council began talking about the possibility of contributing to USCL late last year.
Mayor Ann Taylor said the town is prohibited from supporting private causes, but may contribute to something for the public good.

Many will come but few will last the night. But it's all in the name of fun.
The 11th annual Frontier FFA Catfish Tournament will be held this weekend, with registration beginning at 7 p.m. Saturday. Anglers will tough it out on the river near Bob's Place in New Matamoras through the night and into the wee hours of Sunday morning, with weigh-in beginning at 7 a.m.
"We typically have about 100 people turn out - some will stay up all night but some don't make it and fall asleep," said Erwin Berry, agricultural sciences instructor at Frontier High School. "Catfish are more active at night so that's the best time to fish for them."

This photo from a past Frontier FFA Catfish Tournament shows the flathead division winners, center, with their catfish weighing in at roughly 45 pounds and 30 pounds, and the two channel cat winners at right.
Times file photo
Pictured from left are 2012 winners, Dillon Metheney, with his 33-pound flathead catfish, Ben Bowersock, who caught an 8-pound channel cat, and Jay Berentz, with a 38-pound flathead.
There are two divisions of catfish - channel and flathead - and the biggest weight in both categories will bring a pretty good bounty.
"The average size is about 30 to 40 pounds," Berry said, adding that there are measures in place to make sure everything is done fairly. The fish also need to be caught alive and put back in the water alive.
A committee of interested FFA members and avid catfishers was formed around 2004 as a way to raise money. Recipients in the past have included the owner of a local bait shop who was fighting COPD and Kyle Hockenberry, a 2010 Frontier graduate who was injured in the line of duty in Afghanistan.

Bob's Place owner Bob Eckert, who is retired and has long been a supporter of Frontier Local Schools, offers his property along the Ohio River at 110 Front St. each year for anglers.
"I like to see the kids fish and hunt and just get out and enjoy the outdoors," he said.
No children will be permitted to fish without an adult for safety reasons and the shore and river from dam to dam will be accessible.
Also, the fish will likely be biting for the season, which kicks off this weekend and runs through September or October, according to Eckert.
"A neighbor here just caught a 22-pound fish this weekend, so I think it's going to be a good weekend," he said.

Energy Use in Day Care Centers and Schools

AbstractTypically the aim in the construction process is to calculate the energy, space and cost efficiency in the design phase. These factors' influence on decision making extends to the whole building process. How these decisions affect the use of the building and user satisfaction as well as maintenance is still not that well understood. This study analyses different schools and day care centers and their energy as well as primary energy use. The buildings are located in southern Finland. Each building has had different objectives with respect to energy efficiency in the design phase. Our objective was to find out how those decisions made in the design and construction phase have influenced the overall energy performance of the building compared to existing building stock of similar building type. The results show that the studied buildings had lower thermal energy consumption compared to existing building stock. Thus the special attention in the design phase allowed achieving the desired goal. However, for the electricity consumption such a correlation could not be found. One of the reasons could be also different service level of buildings (more equipment). Also other quality values could not be compared since such data were not available from the existing building stock. As many earlier studies have indicated users have a high influence on the energy consumption. In the future, when feed-back from the users are obtained it will be interesting to analyze the results and compare what kind of influence that user behavior will have on the overall energy consumption of the studied buildings.

Project Runway Blog
Make It Work (Like A Work of Art)
This blog is brought to you by Stanley's "WOWWEEE" reaction to the finished product of his print design. I don't think I've seen him that excited all season.
The designers meet Tim Gunn at the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Guggenheim Museum, where they're paired off in new teams (Stanley and Michelle, Patricia and Richard, Layana and Daniel). Their objective to design a fabric inspired by the art of the Guggenheim that will be utilized in two looks: One must be "a work of wearable art" while the other should be a more commercial, ready-to-wear piece. The HP + Intel fabric challenge has been a highlight of the past few "Runway" seasons, and incorporating that with inspiration from fine art is intriguing. I'm so bummed Samantha was eliminated last week! I think she would've done something awesome here.
Our top six wander the museum taking pictures and sketching. Aside from immediately agreeing that Richard should work on the commercial look, he and Patricia don't seem to be able (or willing) to communicate their inspiration or ideas to each other at all. Their struggle continues throughout the episode and it's sort of painful to watch. Forget that they're not on the same wavelengthit's like they're not even speaking the same language. Tim accuses Richard of trying to pawn off responsibility for their designs on Patricia should things go wrong. Patricia keeps calling Richard "Daniel." Richard spends tons of time fiddling with a bracelet instead of designing something real. No one comes off well.
Across the workroom, Stanley and Michelle make a great pair. I've been thinking for a few weeks now that their work habits and visual styles are complementary, so it's nice to see them have some genuine excitement for their groupwork. Layana and Daniel, meanwhile, struggle with Layana's creative block. Daniel makes some wan attempts to pump up her ego, which is certainly generous since that Layana can't be bothered to set aside more than a yard of their fabric for his commercial look.
Rachel Roy fills in again for Mr. Posen this week, and our guest judge is designer Tracy Reese (of whom I'm a huge fanher work with patterns is awesome). Let's talk about the runway show!
Daniel - Sleek, sexy, modern, but a bit yawn-worthy coming from Daniel at this point in the season, no? I'm surprised that the judges are so taken with the look. We've seen him build great jackets with tailored shoulders throughout the competition. This didn't strike me as being new or fresh.
Layana - A bit flowery and overwrought. Nina compares it to a period piece; Rachel Roy says it's a "mix of Scarlett O'Hara and a Barbie doll." Layana doesn't exactly jump to defend her dress, either, so it's kind of a wash.
Michelle - I think Michelle's overcoat is great, especially with the painting detail on the train. I also love the styling. Stanley was right to edit out Michelle's crazy hat in favor of the less literal headpiece. The judges are really into this look.
Stanley - I adore the print, and Stanley's choice of silhouette is perfectly executed. The judges give Stanley the win (and the $10,000 prize).
Patricia - Her elaborate handmade textile work is again a thing to be admired, but I don't have any real response to this piece. The judges admire her effort, though Nina (predictably) takes issue with the veil.
Richard - Just a hot mess, and nowhere near the level of work one expects from a designer in the top six. Richard rolled over and died in this challenge, and the judges are quick to send him auf.
I definitely think it was Richard's time to go. Whose look was your favorite? Which pair of garments do you think best met the challenge requirements? Was Stanley more deserving of the win than Michelle? Let me know in the comments.
Next week: A celebrity editorial look, and the return of Tu!

Barcelona = Coworking.
Después de la COWORKING SPAIN CONFERENCE 2013 en Barcelona, en Noviembre aterriza en Barna la conferencia europea de Coworking.
En ella estarán los gurus del mundillo, y podremos conocer a nuevos espacios y nuevas ideas colaborativas.
Nosotros allí estaremos,… y si algun@ mas se anima, aquí os dejamos el programa, partners y demás info sobre el evento;
Coworking Europe 2013 – Barcelona
Coworking Europe 2013, the fourth Coworking Europe Conference, organised by Global Enterprise and the Xarxa Punt TIC of the Government of Catalonia, with the support of the coworking magazine Deskmag, will take place on November 11, 12 and 13 in Barcelona.
The Coworking Europe conference is the mainest event covering the topic of Coworking.
Between 300 and 350 attendees from around Europe, North America and beyond, will gather during three days at the Fabra i Coats, a creation factory that the Barcelona City Council puts at the disposal of the conference organizers.
Close to fifty speakers and panelists will share their thoughts and best practices with an audience made out of coworking space operators, facility managers, real estate pundits as well as city councils representatives, public development agencies, universities or startup incubator managers.
All are interested to learn more about Coworking as a plateform able to address critical challenges of our time such as boosting entrepreneurship and innovation, making the independent workforce stronger or to investigate the future of working at the digital age.
After the successes Coworking Europe 2010 (Brussels, with The Hub Brussels) Coworking Europe 2011 (Berlin, with Club Office and Betahaus) and Coworking Europe 2012 (Paris, with La Fonderie and ARD), Global Enterprise partnered this year with the Generalitat of Catalonia and Xarxa Punt TIC.
The strenghtening of the global coworking wave
For outsiders, here is a reminder of what coworking is :
The concept is simple : professionals from different working areas, independent workers, nomad workers and entrepreneurs find themselves in the same physical space to work on their own projects.
They don't only seek to break with their isolation and to find an alternative solution to their home office or to the company office they are used to work from; But also to belong to a community of individuals who are open to exchange ideas, and eventually, who are ready to collaborate.
As of early 2013, more than 1.200 coworking spaces are in operation in Europe. In less than 5 years, the total of coworking spaces has overtook, for instance, the total of incubators and innovation centers operating in Europe.
Likewise, Coworking spaces are sprouting everywhere on the planet.
The number of coworking spaces worldwide is almost doubling every year, getting close to 2.500 globally.
Getting rid of the confusion between Coworking and « office sharing »
The coworking concept, is not limited to the sharing of a facility.
It's based on the emergence of a new type of interpersonal relationships and on the development of exchange communities, with people sharing values of openness, collaboration and readiness for change.
Nowadays, Coworking spaces are reflective of the emergence of new models and new expectations in the business world and in the society in general. The movement represents a wide variety of styles. It reaches out and is expanding to new audiences.
All over Europe, public institutions and companies are starting to consider Coworking as a source of inspiration in order to implement new working, innovation and collaboration approaches.
As of today, coworking spaces host thousands of entrepreneurs, independents and nomad workers already. They will soon host tens or hundreds of thousands them.
A very impactful trend
Coworking paves the way for tectonic changes in our modern economies.
The concept and values of coworking are shaping the patterns of change in areas as broad as :
- Mobility management
- Transformation of the office furniture market
- Entrepreneurship development
- Evaluation of the demand in public transportation
- Innovation in the corporate sector
- Development of digital and mobile technologies
- Human resources management
- Evolution of the office space design and facility management
- Revival of urban areas
- Development of rural areas
- Development of new ecosystems of innovation
- and countless other impacts…

Waleem was a fabulous tour guide - funny and knowledgeable. It was a great 3 hours and we were sad to see it end. He looked after the entire group of varying abilities and kept it fun throughout, whilst paying the respect certain aspects required. This sis t an in depth, heartstrings-pulling account of the rise and fall of the wall, but a whistle stop tour of all the big sights with more than enough information to give you a great understanding of what went on and why. Highly, highly recommended!!!!!!

FORT LEWIS, Wash. - The Dragoon Raiders formally returned to Fort Lewis Tuesday in a ceremony marked by tears, speeches and the strains of marches played by the 56th Army Band.
The Stryker Soldiers of 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division, marked their official redeployment from Operation Iraqi Freedom with a ceremony on Watkins Field.
The I Corps commanding general, Lt. Gen. Charles H. Jacoby Jr., Washington 6th District congressman Norm Dicks and a host of local political and military leaders congratulated the brigade for the successes of its deployment that spanned the period from April 2007 to June 2008. The ceremony formalized hundreds of private reunions Soldiers and their families celebrated as flights returned throughout the past month from Southwest Asia.
Jacoby, 4th Bde., 2nd Inf. Div. commander, Col. Jon S. Lehr, and the top NCOs from I Corps and the brigade, Command Sergeants Major Frank A. Grippe and John W. Troxell, shared the ceremonial duties of uncasing the brigade colors, signifying the unit's return from combat. A new streamer for the Iraq campaign was hung at the top of the staff to mark the brigade's honorable service.
"Fort Lewis, our great state of Washington and the entire nation are indeed proud today of your successful mission and your return home," Dicks said to the formation of Soldiers. "You took the fight to the enemy's doorstep and presented a strong and stable presence that reassured local Iraqis that better days were ahead."
The I Corps commander called the deployment "historic," citing achievements that carried the hopes of U.S. foreign policy and stabilized the future of the fledgling democracy in Iraq.
"You were sent to Iraq with the express purpose of changing the very course of the war," Jacoby said, "a painful complex fight that cannot be lost."
The courage and determination of the brigade turned the tide against a vicious enemy, said the commanding general.
"Your mission led you to some of the most dangerous and volatile areas of Iraq," Jacoby said. "You took the fight into the enemy strongholds, you looked him in the eye, you took the worst that they could do and you bested them.
"You represented hope to those in need and doom to those with evil in their hearts," he said.
Jacoby presented two awards for valor at the start of Tuesday's redeployment ceremony.
Specialist Rodny Yefune received a Silver Star and Corporal Luke S. Runyan received a posthumous Bronze Star Medal with Valor device. Jacoby presented Runyan's widow, Courtney, the BSM on behalf of her husband.
The awards resulted from action in Bodija, Iraq on Feb. 18, 2008 when a team from the scout platoon of Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment was ambushed by insurgent gunmen. The team fought off the close ambush and was ordered to pursue the enemy. Its members soon were pinned down by withering AK-47 and rocket-propelled grenade fire.
Runyan led his team by fire and maneuver until he received a mortal wound.
Yefune continued the attack despite heavy automatic fire, single-handedly assaulting the enemy position and subduing it, killing one insurgent and scattering the rest. He held the position, treating wounds and evacuating three team members to medical facilities. He "undoubtedly helped save his comrades' lives," according to the award citation.
Deploying to Iraq a month early, staying three months longer than planned, the Dragoon Raiders demonstrated their agility and resilience throughout their tour in Iraq, As the first Stryker brigade to deploy with all 10 variants of the combat vehicle, the eyes of the Army, the country and the enemy were on it.
The battalions each took responsibility for its own battle space in Salah e-Din and Diyala provinces. In November, the brigade reunited to conduct major operations against al-Qaida.
Operation Raider Reaper followed immediately by Operation Raider Harvest drove al-Qaida in Iraq from its strongholds in the iron triangle and the breadbasket, finally extricating its fighters from Baqubah - the self-proclaimed AQI capital.
During the deployment, the Dragoon Raiders conducted nine brigade-level operations and 550 battalion- and company-level missions throughout Diyala Province and the northern Baghdad Belt, routing al-Qaida and its affiliates and suppressing Shiite militias. In its battle space, the brigade became the chief executor of Multinational Force-Iraq commander, Gen. David Petraeus's counterinsurgency tactics of simultaneously bolstering the Iraq Security Forces, safeguarding key infrastructure and empowering local officials and government agencies.
By most combat metrics, the 4th Bde., 2nd Inf. Div. accomplished its primary missions.
According to the brigade's newly revised history, its Soldiers killed or wounded more than 600 insurgents, detained 1,700 personnel as a result of combat operations, cleared 11,250 kilometers of routes, discovered more than 550 caches of enemy weapons and equipment and neutralized 1,295 improvised explosive devices.
Lehr said he took particular satisfaction in turning 12,000 former insurgents into Sons of Iraq, working to rebuild their country rather than destabilize it.
Success exacted a heavy price of the brigade. Fifty-four assigned or attached Soldiers lost their lives during the deployment.
"I made a request of these Soldiers 16 months ago," Lehr said, "that we serve proudly and return home with honor. I submit to you the 54 men who made the ultimate sacrifice and the men and women standing in the formation today epitomize the concept of valor, bravery and honor."
The legacy of their sacrifice, he said, is already being realized in the gradual transition to a free Iraq, capable of defending and governing itself.
"We assisted in returning back to the Iraqis the country they value and cherish back from the insurgents and criminals who seek to destroy that great nation," Lehr said.
The end of the ceremony also marked the beginning of hard-earned block leave for most 4th Bde., 2nd Inf. Div. Soldiers.

Now that's a care package
For one Soldier, the return to Fort Lewis meant more than a reunion with family and the chance for well-earned time off. Tuesday's redeployment ceremony also brought Corporal Michael Gallagher a new Jeep Liberty sport utility vehicle.
Representatives of Operation Gratitude, a volunteer organization that has sent thousands of care packages overseas to deployed U.S. service men and women joined with Chrysler Limited Liability Corporation prior to the 4th Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division redeployment ceremony on Watkins Field to present the car to Gallagher. He had been the recipient of the 300,000th care package assembled by Operation Gratitude, which thanks to Chrysler, included the keys to a Liberty vehicle.
Chrysler went a step further by surprising Gallagher with a bittersweet gesture of arranging with a local company to paint on the hood the names of five fellow A Company, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment Soldiers who lost their lives in Iraq.
"Corporal Gallagher told us he wanted to honor his fellow Soldiers who gave their lives in defense of our great nation by permanently displaying their names on his Jeep," said Frank Fountain of Chrysler LLC. "We're deeply grateful for the sacrifice of those Soldiers and that Corporal Gallagher has chosen to remember them each day."
Gallagher had expected to receive the vehicle Tuesday, but was visibly moved that it came with the names of his friends on the hood.
"I did not expect it to be done," Gallagher said. "I had plans to get it done myself. They chose to do it themselves. For everything that you do for everybody out here, I'm very grateful."

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) - The Oakland Raiders have signed wide
receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh to a contract.
The team announced the move Tuesday after watching
Houshmandzadeh work out.
The signing gives new quarterback Carson Palmer a receiver he
knows extremely well. The two were teammates in Cincinnati for six
seasons and both had their greatest NFL success when they were
Houshmandzadeh had been out of the league since playing with
Baltimore last season but had been working out in Southern
California with Palmer before the Raiders acquired the quarterback
last month.
The 34-year-old Houshmandzadeh had only 30 catches for 398 yards
and three touchdowns with the Ravens last season.

So farewell Radoslav Kovac, Upton Park non-legend, who has departed to FC Basel. He never looked up to the Premiership and it was always a mystery why Zola signed him having already seen what he was like during a loan spell. Yes, he had the odd decent game like against Man United in the Carling Cup, but for most of his time couldn't pass the ball straight.
More upset to see Da Costa depart for Lokomotiv Moscow as he could have done a job in the Championship.
Overall, we're making good progress on the wage bill, having shifted 12 players. Loanees Obinna, Keane and Bridge have been returned to sender, Dyer, Upson, Jacobsen, Spector and Gabbidon were all out of contract while Ba has gone to Newcastle and Hitzlsperger has had his contract terminated.
If nothing else we'll hopefully have a new team and a new mindset next season.

Savor the flavors of everyday real food, fresh from the garden or stored on your pantry shelves.
By Sue Van Slooten
bagels, Sue Van Slooten, King Arthur Flour, Sue Van Slooten
We bakers are a strange lot. We love bread so much that we're willing to make starters, bigas, go through all kinds of contortions, even get up at 3 a.m. to get things rolling. But boil? In water? Boiling water doesn't usually enter into our repertoire, unless we're going to make bagels, that is. By my account, bagels are one of the weirder breads going. Some accounts have bagels being invented in Eastern Europe, but I've heard other spots too. In North America, particularly in NY, this doughnut shaped bread is instantly associated with the Jewish specialty, bagel, lox and cream cheese. Lox is nice, but just give me the bagel, please.
The following recipe came off a bag of flour I once got at King Arthur Flour, and it's about the only recipe I'd use. And yes, you're going to need a large pot. This recipe makes about ten good size bagels, not huge, but not tiny. A perfect-size bagel. Bagels, incidentally, have grown over the years, to almost double the size they used to be, so these will be more like the traditional. And as anyone knows, bagels are well fought over depending on their toppings. You can really go crazy, from poppy seeds to sesame seeds to raisin and cinnamon. I used a pre-made topping mix from King Arthur, containing all kinds of seeds including fennel. One can always go for the Everything Bagel (my personal favourite). Once you try the basic recipe, the sky is limitless on what you can do with your bagel. Top it, toast it, turn it into a bagel chip. Cream cheese is pretty much a necessity, but butter can be nice too (particularly, but not limited to a cinnamon/raisin. Cream cheese is nice with that one too.). I used a dill cream cheese courtesy of Philadelphia this morning for breakfast, and it went really well. So here we go on our bagel adventure, very chewy, topping of choice:
1 tbsp instant yeast 4 cups Sir Lancelot High-Gluten Flour – more on this later 2 tsp salt 1 tbsp. non-diastatic malt powder or brown sugar*1-1/2 cups lukewarm water
Water bath:
2 quarts water 1 tbsp sugar 2 tbsp non-diastatice malt powder or brown sugar*
Mix all the ingredients to make a very stiff dough. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, turn to coat, cover, let rise till puffy, although I didn't get real puffiness. It doesn't double in size. Let rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, but my kitchen was cold, so it took a bit longer.
Divide the risen dough into ten balls (they say eight, but I didn't want large bagels, the choice is yours). Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes.
Heat the water, sugar, and brown sugar or powder to a gentle boil in a large pot or pan. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheir. Poke a 2-inch wide hole through each ball; the entire bagel will be about 4 inches across. Place bagels on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, and let rest for 10 minutes.
Gently lower the bagels, 3 or 4 at a time, into the simmering water. I used a slotted spoon to do this. Simmer for 2 minutes, flip them over, and simmer 1 minute more. Place them on a baking sheet. They say sprinkle with seeds at this point. I took a shallow pan with some egg white, and when they were cool enough to handle after the boiling step, dipped them in the egg, then the seeds, and then I put them on the baking sheet. Whichever way you like best. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven, cool completely on a rack. Yield: 8-10 bagels.
High-gluten flour: This is how they get the bagels so chewy, although other recipes consulted use plain all-purpose.
*I didn't have the malt powder, so used brown sugar to good effect.

They have 2 of them on the pkg. for $12.00 at Costco. Same as Sam's warehouse. It will make it a lot easier to read the patterns at night, I use a standing lamp and it's still too dark. Sending a picture of it in case anyone is insterested. Rebecca :)

5. Jan. 13, 1976, Bobby "Boogaloo" Watts W 10 Marvin Hagler I –Spectrum, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Five days before the defending champion Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys waged war at Super Bowl X in the Orange Bowl in Miami, Hagler had his own day of reckoning. For the most part Hagler, though a native of Newark, N.J., had been a New England phenomenon because all but one of the 26 fights that made up his 25-0-1 record had been staged there. The only blemish just happened to be his sole out-of-region fight – a 10-round draw to 1972 gold medalist, previous victim and local hero Sugar Ray Seales in Seattle that many felt Hagler deserved.
So when Hagler decided to travel to Philadelphia to face local attraction Watts, no one would have blamed him if he felt some trepidation. Eighteen of Watts' previous 30 fights were staged in Philadelphia, including eight at the Spectrum. But Hagler always relished a challenge and he correctly felt that facing what he called "The Iron" – Watts, Willie "The Worm" Monroe, Bennie Briscoe and Eugene "Cyclone" Hart – would provide invaluable experience on the way to his ultimate objective: the middleweight championship of the world.
The roles remained the same throughout the contest as Watts was the cute boxer seeking to catch Hagler charging in with pinpoint counters and shoeshine flurries and Hagler constantly pursuing with harder but less frequent shots. The action ebbed and flowed and in many rounds the advantages gained were slight and fleeting. The only clear rounds for either man was the third and fifth for Watts and the fourth for Hagler, though Hagler appeared the stronger and fresher fighter in rounds seven, eight and nine. Watts, however, regained his rhythm and verve in the 10th as he moved sprightly and fired excellent volleys that only slowed Hagler's steady pursuit.
At the bell both men threw their arms in the air and Hagler jogged around the ring to show everyone he could go another brisk 10 if needed. Hagler's joy turned to anger when the cards were announced over the loudspeaker. Judges Nate Lopinson (48-44) and Earl Vann (46-44) scored for Watts while referee Hank Cisco saw it a 46-46 draw. It was the first loss of Hagler's career and his next visit to Philly two fights later was equally unpleasant as he lost a clear 10-round decision to Monroe. The Monroe loss, however would be Hagler's last for an incredible 11 years.
As for the game, it was a classic as the Steelers withstood a late surge by the Cowboys to come out with a 21-17 win that, unlike the fight, was beyond dispute.
