The Wild Kingdom
Franklin Greenway - Harpeth River Project
One day Deer decided to take a run or at least fast walk in the woods by the stream. He headed down to the Harpeth River Greenway to see what he could see. After getting on to the Greenway trail from Aspen Grove Road, Deer ran down the trail with his white bobbing tail up in the air, to the very large bridge. He checked to see that no one was watching and slipped down the far left side of the bridge. There on the top beam behind the support post, he found the thing he needed to start his search... his Spirit. With his Spirit in tact he could move freely and unsuspected. As he moved back up to the trail, his spirit moved into him and he felt alive and free.
As he left the bridge and continued on the trail, he thought he could hear Owls spirit on the wind. Is Owl spirit calling to me he ask himself Deer put his ears higher up in the air, twitched them from side to side, trying to hear Owl spirit once again "Deer, what are you looking for? came the spirit voice of Owl. "Why, I'm looking for you Owl", "where are you?" I could hear your spirit hoot in the wind. As Deer listened, he followed Owl spirits hoot to try to find Owl. He was cautious to things around him as he searched. Deer, said Owl, I will try to help you find me. So Deer listened as Owl gave him directions as best he could.
Run down the trail until you see a path on the right that goes down into the water. When you get to the path stop and walk so you can count your steps. When you have gone 61 steps, look to the left, you will see where the big tree has lost some of its branches and they are on the ground. I was in my nest on one of them when the storm came that knocked those branches down last night Now I am stuck behind the tree behind the fallen branches still in my nest. I was waiting for night to come to rebuild my nest on another branch in the tree Could you come and help me get out so I will have a place to rest in the morning? ask Owl spirit. Deer carefully walked behind the tree and looked down to see Owls nest under a rock. I am here Owl, said Deer. Let me help you get out of there. Thank you said Owl. You should leave that nest as I found it and gather more twigs to rebuild your nest. I think you are right, this nest is a mess. I will do as you say Deer Spirit.
As Deer was helping Owl out of the messy nest he heard another sound on the wind, Owl, do you here that noise, ask Deer Yes, it sounds like a bugle blowing, said Owl. It does, said Deer. I wonder where its coming from, said Owl. Maybe we should see what it is, said Deer. We should, Owl said, maybe someone needs help. Come on, Ill give you a ride, said Deer spirit.
Owl flew up and settled onto Deers back as Deer ran on down the trail toward the bugling sound. As they continued on, Deer spirit started to hear sounds of a struggle on the wind and quickened his pace. Owl was about to be thrown off of Deers back, he was running so fast, so Owl took flight calling to Deer, I will scout ahead to see what I can see, I will hoot if I see anything. If you hear anything, bellow and I will hear you on the wind. They agreed and Owl flew away high over the trees in search of the bugling sound.
From far above Owl could see something struggling in the trees beside the trail. Hooooot said Owl so Deer could hear. What do you see Owl? ask Deer spirit. Deer, replied Owl, there is something really big on the left in the tree line, and I cant tell from up here what it is. Can you swoop down a little closer to get a better look? ask Deer spirit. I can, replied Owl. As Owl was about to fly lower the bugling sound came on the wind louder than ever. Deer stopped in his tracks to listen. Hhheeelllpppp was bugling on the wind. Deer, I think thats Elk spirit I see down there, said Owl. I think you must be right Owl, I hear him bugling for help Yes you both are right they heard Elk say. Where are you? Deer and Owl said in chorus. Listen carefully Deer, and I will try to guide you here, said Elk spirit. Owl hooted! Elk said Come down the trail until you see a water spout on the right. Stop at the spout and take a compass reading of 170 degrees You will see a tree on the left that has a scar high up above the ground, Im under that tree covered in grass Owl got to Elk first and soon Deer was there. How did you get down here? they ask Elk. I was running from the golf course across the stream and I saw a body with no head. I leaped across the stream as fast as I could to get away and tripped when I hit the bank over there pointing with his antler toward the stream. I went flying through the air and hit my head, my antler stuck way up there in this tree. When my antler finally came loose I slid all the way down on my face and landed here Thats really high up there said Deer I was really spooked said Elk. Owl hooted! Can you two help me out of this mess? I want to see if I can find that body with no head Elk said We can, they said. I want to see this body too said Owl and hooted! Me too said Deer
They helped Elk out of the grass under the tree leaving no trace hed been there and began to look for the body. On the trail again, Deers spirit began to listen. He turned his ears toward the stream, and heard nothing. Elk, what do you think it was? ask Deer. Elk replied, Not sure, I saw it from the corner of my eye just before I hit the tree It had left the stream and was trying to get off the ground but I didnt see what it was or where it went, I was kind of busy, he said a little embarrassed. Owl hooted! Owl said Deer can you fly over the tree line and see if you can see whats there Sure said Owl, and he took off. Im sure I scared whatever it was as bad as it spooked me, said Elk. Maybe its hiding somewhere, he said.
Suddenly a harsh croak came at them on the wind. You certainly did scare me and I am hiding Ive never seen a flying Elk before! came the croaking voice. I was wading in the stream, just grabbed a salamander, which I about choked on, mind you minding my own business when suddenly there are antlers and legs and legs and antlers everywhere And I might add, I am not a headless body, I am a Blue Heron and Ill thank you to remember that! Shes a hoot! exclaimed Owl as he came back to the others. Where are you hiding, ask Deer Ill not tell you unless that Elk promises not to take flight again, only birds should be flying around in the air! Owl hooted again! I cant fly said Elk I got spooked when I saw you with no head and tripped, I wasnt really flying Hump said Blue Heron. Well I do need help getting out of here so come 80 steps down the trail, there is a path on the left with a clear view of a building. Im under some rocks behind the first tree on the right as you are facing the building. Be quick about it she croaked. They hurried to gather around the Blue Heron.
Just as they were about to help her up, she croaked shrilly once more and shrunk back behind the tree where she had been hiding. What is it, the three who were helping Heron ask in unison. Oh, oh, oh my retorted Heron cowering now after such bravado. What? Tell us! Oh my, croaked Heron there are all sorts of things flying in the air today that arent birds! What ever are you talking about? ask Deer spirit. Heron looked out from behind the tree and meekly shrinking back again. Owl had fluttered up to look in the direction Heron was looking. Hooootwhat was that Owl stammered as Deer and Elk were turning to see what Heron and Owl were looking at. For a moment they saw nothing when suddenly something bounced up in the air, then it was gone again. Deer and Elk took off running down the trail, tails twitching in the air as Owl was trying not to fall out of the sky. Wait, Wait for me croaked Blue Heron taking flight. Owl hooted! Moreover, they didnt slow down, they didnt even hear Blue Heron they were so excited. What is it Elk ask Deer as they ran down the trail. I dont know, said Deer Ive never seen anything like that in my life, he said. Bounce, bounce, bounce. As what ever it was kept bouncing, Owl, Deer, and Elk were trying to figure out how to get to it. Owl, Deer said into the wind, can you see what is happening from where you are. Well no, said Owl as Heron flew past him with wings spanning wide saying its a creature that looks somewhat like you Deer but bouncing on two legs. Like me! exclaimed Deer? There are no deer with two legs that can bounce poopooing the idea. Can you hear anything on the wind? Deer ask Blue Heron No, but I can tell you how to get there from up here Then please do so said Deer spirit. Keep coming down the trail, you will cross a culvert where another stream meets the big stream After the culvert you will see an opening in the forest on the left that goes up to the road. Turn into that opening, there is a phone pole on the right and two trees on the left There is a bush under the second tree and thats where the bouncing is coming from, Blue Heron said, guiding the others to the spot.
Blue Heron, and then Owl landed in the treetop watching with heads bobbing as bounce, bounce, bounce Will you STOP THAT BOUNCING screeched Owl just as Elk and Deer arrived on the scene. Oh tut, tut, tut sorry came a soft voice. What are you and whatever are you doing? ask Heron. Why I am a kangaroo, said Kangaroo softly tutting. I was jumping up to see what all of the commotion was about Ive never seen a flying elk before and you all were in a tizzy about it. Im lost but I just had to see what was going on so I was jumping up to watch you all I am not a flying elk! bellowed Elk Oh, I see, said Kangaroo meekly, not wanting to be bellowed at again. How did you get here? ask Deer, looking over this creature thinking maybe its head and coat resembled his own, but that was about it. Im not sure replied Kangaroo. I dont know where here is she said Well dont just stand here everyone, lets get her out of there said Elk Oh, I dont need help getting out, Im used to jumping through bush said Kangaroo as she exploded up and out from under the bush. I see that, said Owl when the Kangaroos face came up even with his own before she disappeared and stopped bouncing once more.
I got under the bush because I heard a hissing sound while I was grazing, she continued. Im afraid of snakes, and Im pretty sure I heard one Where! the others sang in unison. And Owl hooted! Over at the Honey Locust tree she replied. Can you show us? ask Deer spirit I told you, Im afraid of snakes! she hissed. Ok, ok said Deer. I see the end of the trail up ahead, stay here and well stop back by to get you on the way out. But Deer said Kangaroo, the Honey Locust tree is past the trail end where the path goes down to the stream before you get to the power pole. Ok said Deer, you wait here. Better yet, all of you wait here, this could be dangerous! They all conceded that it would be dangerous so Deer took off by himself.
Deer walked slowly, his spirit listening on the wind for the sound of the snake. As he headed in the direction Kangaroo said the Honey Locust tree was, he started to look for the path down to the water. When he found it, he cautiously walked toward the water, seeing the golf course across the stream ahead. He looked side to sides until he saw the thorny tree on his left. There he saw the snake, a Cobra in fact, hanging from one of the thorns. The Cobra sensing danger hissed with a sound that sounded more like a dog growling than a snake. Deers spirit afraid, not looking back, leapt up the trail, running faster than he thought he could back to his new friends. After catching his breath, and calming his fear for a moment, he told the waiting group what he found. It was a Cobra! It was hanging in the Honey Locust tree sure enough. When I was about eight steps from the water it growled a hissed at me, I turned and ran. Seeing the fear on his friends faces, Deer said, Lets get back up the trail away from danger So, they headed back the way they had come discussing the events of the day.
After they had past the places where each one of them had been found, Deer said to the others, Im thirsty after all of that running Owl hooted! Me too said Elk. Blue Heron said, There is a path into the water on the left just beyond where Elk flew I didnt Elk started to say fly but gave up. No one believed him anyway. Why keep repeating myself, he thought. Owl, hoot, hoot hooted! to himself. Finding the path and seeing the golf course where Elk had come from, they all went down into the stream for a drink. Heron quickly grabbed a fish or two. Since no one was talking because they were drinking, the sharp whistling sound that came then almost caused them all to drown.
They, recovering fast, turned to see the oddest thing. About 15 steps in the direction they had just come from on the left under rocks under a tree on the bank was what they thought was a bird of some kind except it didnt appear to have wings. Owl hooted! What are but before Heron could finish the question, the thing scurried back behind the tree and buried its looong beak in the dirt. Not again! boomed Elk getting frustrated and thinking that all feathery girl animals must be scared of every little thing. The little furry feathery thing shyly and fearfully lifted its head peering at the group standing before it. Stuttering, the little flightless bird said, Im a Kiwi. You mean like the fruit? ask Kangaroo. No, said Kiwi. The fruit was actually named after me, but its a common mistake Where are you from? Blue Heron asked. Ive never seen a bird that couldnt fly and thinking to herself nor an Elk that could When the little bird said Ive never seen an Elk that could fly! Owl hooted! Elk just turned his head not responding. The little bird continued I am from New Zealand, and arent you from Australia Kangaroo? Why yes I am said Kangaroo Kiwi how did you get here Kangaroo continued. Im not sure, how about you? the little Kiwi said. Im not sure either, said the Roo. What are you doing down at the waters edge? ask Heron. Well, its silly, really, I recently laid an egg and was sitting it, when I took a break to eat. When I went back to warm my egg I couldnt find where I left it. While looking for it I saw all of these eggs here in the stream, I thought one of them might be mine Owl hooted then said, those arent eggs, they are golf balls! Hoot- hoot- hoot Oh, said the little bird embarrassed I was sitting each one to see if any felt right, none did. They were smaller than my egg, and harder too, she sighed. Well said Elk, breaking the pall that had fallen over the group Lets see what else the day has to offer. Sorry about your egg Heron told the little Kiwi as she slowed to walk back up to the trail with the little bird. The little Kiwi was falling behind as everyone else took off up the trail. Stop everyone! croaked Blue Heron. Someone needs to let Kiwi ride or shell never keep up, she said. Not me! exclaimed Elk whiningly. Owl hooted! I will, said Deer Can you get up on my back? No, no I dont think so, the shy bird said. Ill help, said Owl, swooping down and grabbing Kiwi with his talons and setting her atop Deers back, and off they went.
When they were on the bridge, Deer turned to see if everyone was keeping up behind him when Kiwi peeped, What is that, staring up in the sky as she climbed up on Deers head so she could see better. What? all the others turned and said at once. It looks like Deer with spots, she said. Oh no, not again moaned Deer. They all looked up where Kiwi was looking. They collectively gasp as a huge spotted head with small horns bent down eyeing them from the huge cedar tree that faced them. Its not a deer, said Elk. Its a giraffe Hello there said Giraffe. Are you flying ask Kiwi. Owl hooted! Everyone can fly but me said the little flightless bird, pitying herself. Not at all the Giraffe said walking away from the tree. Kiwi gawked as she looked up at the Giraffe towering over all standing there. I was hoping you all would come this way, Giraffe said. I have lost my friends and was looking over the tree tops to see if I could see them. I saw Deer spirit head down the trail finding Owl and then Elk, but I couldnt see what happened after that, Owl hooted! Everyone speaking at once started telling Giraffe their stories. Kangaroo included the part about the Cobra on a thorn in the Honey Locust tree. That is quite a story, Giraffe said as everyone quieted from exhaustion. You said you were looking for your friends, said Blue Heron. With that neck, you should have spotted them easily, said Elk You would think so said Giraffe. We split up trying to figure out where we are. Rhino went back the way you were coming, as did Lion, but Im not sure where Elephant went. I couldnt watch all of them at once so I stepped under this tree to wait until they came back. That was a while ago though.
HNAAAAAAANHNAAAAAAAN SNORT thundered a loud voice just across the trail. Rhino! exclaimed Giraffe I didnt realize you were so close I went for a swim, its terribly hot here. I got in the water down the trail a bit and walked my three toed self back up here to this tree thats hollow inside with a crushed can stuck in branches at the bottom Rhino went on I thought for sure you had seen me in this the last tree from the bridge, across the trail from you. No, I didnt know you were there, said Giraffe.
Maybe Rhino saw where Lion and Elephant went, said Owl. Not sure, groaned Rhino flipping his huge horned head. Ill fly up and take a look around, Owl said. Ill come with you, said Heron. You look past the left end of the bridge and I will look past the right end, Owl said on the wind to Heron. Ok replied Heron and flew back across the bridge from Owl and the others. Owl hadnt gotten far when his breath was knocked out of him and he was nearly blown out of the sky ROARRRR. Owl hoot- hoot-hooted in shock and surprise. You must be Lion, he said shakily taking 11 steps to face the lion on his left. King of the jungle I am! roared the Lion again. Are you lunch? the Lion ask gnashing his teeth and standing from behind the triangle rock under the old cedar tree he had been lying behind. No, no, no, Im not lunch and this isnt the jungle, I am an Owl and this is the forest, he said. Owls can be lunch, roared the Lion. Nooooo, exclaimed Owl. Trying to be heard over the roar, Owl screeched, I am helping your friends Giraffe and Rhino find you Oh said the Lion calming down and sounding a bit disappointed that Owl wasnt lunch after all. Come with me and I will show you the way back to your friend or friends if Elephant has been found, Owl said staying way ahead out of the Lions reach. What about Elephant roared Lion jumping up to nip at Owls tail feathers. Stop that! Owl screeched as they came upon the group standing on the bridge. Blue Heron, riding on the back of a Huge Elephant, was coming from the other side of the bridge. I found him, I found him, she said excitedly from the trumpeting Elephant. I just went left right after the bridge toward the stream and there he was hanging out behind a square standing rock, Owl hooted! Giraffe said, Gosh guys, its good to see you. I wasnt sure I would see you three again, it felt like Id been waiting here forever!
Where are you four from? ask Kangaroo interrupting Giraffe. Africa the four said together. How did you get here? ask Elk. Well they started to reply but were interrupted by Deer saying Actually, none of you are really here, I was bedding down for the day and sent my dream spirit to your spirits. I asked my dream spirit to show me some of the Wild Kingdom, and he brought your spirits here. Deer said, And you will be gone when I wake up
As the sun started to fade, Deer started to rouse. As he shook off the days sleep, his dream came to him full force. What a dream he thought to his spirit, it seemed so real! As he walked down the trail, passing all of the places he found a spirit animal in his dream, he was sure he heard Owl hoot!

The transition from A&P to Acme Markets for shoppers in Bronxville and Eastchester has been smooth from the standpoint of both customers and employees. And according to United Food and Commercial Workers Union for Local 464 President John Niccollai, the overall change is proving to be a positive one for union members moving from the A&P brand to Acme.
Local 464 represents employees at the 12 Cedar St. Acme location in Bronxville as well as the Acme store at 375 White Plains Road in Eastchester. Acme Markets is owned by Albertsons, LLC.
The collective bargaining agreement negotiated by the United Food and Commercial Workers, UFCW, and A&P has been kept in place with no changes, Niccollai said. "For all intents and purposes, everyone is keeping what they have. We're just doing the housekeeping now. Acme has assumed the A&P contract," he said.
"We like what we see so far," Niccollai added.
The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company, better known as A&P, declared bankruptcy in late July announcing plans to close 25 stores and sell off the remaining 300 stores. On July 1, Albertson officials announced its intention to buy 76 of them and re-open them under the Acme brand.
For one customer at the Eastchester location, the changeover has meant no difference except for the labels.
For a woman shopping in the produce department at the Bronxville store, the Acme transition has been a good one. "It's nice and clean. Cleaner than it was and I'm a stickler for that," said the customer who declined to give her name.
While several employees expressed relief at the conclusion of the transition, one Acme worker said the biggest difficulty has been filling jobs.
"The changeover has been a little bit hard. We don't have enough people. It's hard to get people to do this work for these salaries," he said, declining to give his name.
Niccollai also confirmed the employment situation.
"The A&P stores had barebones crews. They were significantly understaffed. We have postings for 650 jobs that are unfilled at this point," he said.
The union president said the Bronxville Acme currently has 80 employees. "I would imagine that the number will increase by quite a bit," he said, but declined to give an estimate.
In terms of employment for UFCW members, the demise of A&P may ultimately be a good thing, Niccollai said. "We really took a tragedy and spun it into an opportunity," he added.
Niccollai, who has been president of Local 464 since 1981, recounted a similar outcome after the bankruptcy of the Grand Union supermarket chain.
He said Grand Union had 1,200 job openings when Stop & Shop took over, but that the number increased to 2,200 after the
2001 transition.

The former Parramatta prop achieved instant notoriety when he was sent off 15 minutes into his first game on British soil for punching Leeds prop Ryan Bailey during the Boxing Day friendly at Headingley. The dismissal threatened to delay his Super League debut but he was able to submit an early-guilty plea to a grade A charge and is clear to play against Bradford on Sunday.
"If I had got banned, I would have been pretty disappointed," said 27-year-old Poore at the club's pre-season media day. "It was a pretty stupid reaction. I don't usually do that stuff. There hasn't been anything like that at home for years so I was quite surprised at myself."
He added: "It's a contact sport and sometimes blokes get a bit annoyed with each other. Hopefully I won't be getting into too many fisticuffs too often."
Wakefield coach Richard Agar, who believes there is nothing wrong with a "bit of biff", mounted a strong defence of Poore's actions at Headingley and believes he can prove to be an effective pack leader.
"I'm a bit of old school in believing that old number eights were always the men who fronted your pack up," Agar said. "He comes to us as a senior, seasoned player. He is probably coming into the prime of his career and I hope we get those best years out of him."
The State of Origin front rower, whose father was born in England, is one of only three close-season signings made by Agar, whose new-look side proved to be the surprise packet of 2012 by reaching the play-offs.
Poore is hoping he can help the Wildcats build on last season's successes, starting with Sunday's trip to Odsal.
"I've had four trials and got through them pretty well," he said. "I'm just looking forward to getting the season kicked off now. We're trying to kick the season off with a bit of a bang and not get left behind.
"Talking to a few of the boys, we're going to try and aim for at least three out of the first five games. They're all winnable games."

The 28-year-old back rower, widely regarded currently as the best player in either rugby code, was a World Cup winner with the All Blacks before making his return to league this year with the Sydney Roosters.
Williams has yet to announce his plans for 2014 as he contemplates another stint in the 15-man game and the next stage of his boxing career, but he is a prime target for Kiwis head coach Stephen Kearney, whose side will be defending their World Cup trophy in the United Kingdom and France in October and November, and also qualifies for Samoa.
New Zealand team manager and former Wigan winger Tony Iro, who is in England checking on hotels and training facilities ahead of the World Cup and to attend Saturday's Challenge Cup final, says the Kiwis remain hopeful of having Williams on board.
"We're in conversation with him," Iro said. "He needs to make a decision on his next career move and we're waiting on that.
"We're obviously very keen to have him available and we've talked to him a lot.
"He would be fantastic, not only for New Zealand but for the World Cup.
"He's been in great form this year. He's had a massive influence on the Sydney Roosters and I'm sure he would have a similar impact on the Kiwis."
Iro, who won 25 caps for the Kiwis and played in the 1995 World Cup in England, is less optimistic over the prospects of former captain Benji Marshall appearing in this year's tournament.
The Wests Tigers stand-off, who was removed as Kiwis skipper earlier this year, is in wretched form for his club and will switch codes at the end of the year with Auckland Blues.
"He's still in our thoughts but I think it's unlikely he'll be available given that he's signed a rugby union deal," Iro said.
"His new employers by all accounts are not that keen on him travelling and the other consideration is that he's not been in great form and, by his own admission, is behind some of the other guys in his position."
Experienced duo Kieran Foran and Shaun Johnson are expected to be New Zealand's first-choice half-backs while the availability of Williams would provide Kearney's men with a tremendous boost as they look to once more topple favourites Australia.
"We're under no illusions about how tough it will be to defend the trophy," Iro said.
"I've not been sent here by Stephen Kearney to talk down our chances but Australia have been the benchmark for a long time.
"We happened to get a couple of tournaments off them but they are the team to beat, although I'm sure England as well as ourselves will make it tough for them."
Meanwhile, Iro is tipping his old club to extend their record to 19 wins when they meet Hull at Wembley on Saturday in a repeat of the famous 1985 final which Wigan won 28-24.
"I'm really looking forward to it," said Iro, who was in the Wigan side alongside brother Kevin when they won at Wembley in 1988 and 1989.
"I wasn't there in 1985 but it was certainly one of the games that spurred me on to become a professional league player - there were a half a dozen Kiwis playing that day.
"I was lucky enough to play there twice at the old Wembley and they were probably the highlights of my career.
"I expect Wigan to win on Saturday. I know they had a soft semi-final and they've probably had a couple of results recently which weren't up to their high standards, but on an occasion like this, I think they will win, although I reckon it will be close."

The 2 people in line ahead of me had coupons for $9.95 oil changes. I was amazed when the first lady was told that her car used a special oil, a special filter and more oil than what the coupon allowed, and the price would be $48 and change! The upsell was effective and she agreed. The next lady was told that her car used 5-20 oil and that the coupon was for 10-30. The attendant claimed the 5-20 oil was a semi synthetic and that her price would be $38.00. She agreed and now it was my turn.
I gave the attendant my information and was immediately asked if my truck was a heavy duty model. When I told her it was a Super Duty but not a diesel model , she immediately told me that the price would be $28.00. Now mind you, I have owned this truck since 2005 and had it smogged in Reno every year for $19.00. From what I know as a backyard mechanic and from my previous experience with smog tests, there is no difference in the labor or the technicalities of performing the test on my truck than on any other vehicle. I asked to see the manager and he told me the truck was a Heavy Duty and much more work. He could or would not explain why. Based on the two previous customer experiences I witnessed, it is plain to me that this company sends out its coupons knowing full well that they will not honor the price. After spending 30 minutes in their store, I left and found another smog shop. I paid them $15.00, their standard price for all gas engine vehicles.
This company is actively involved in bait and switch program.. Reading the other horror story reports about this franchise on this website, I think I escaped by the skin of my teeth. I would heavily recommend that if you need work done on your vehicle, you avoid this shop at all costs. I am probably lucky, because next week I was going to ask them about an oil change and brake job. I am sure that would have been very expensive.

The 21-year-old scored 12 goals last season, leapfrogging Darren Bent in the pecking order at Villa Park and breaking into the Austria team.
Weimann, who has progressed through the club's academy having moved from Rapid Vienna as a 15-year-old, showed his potential during a loan spell with Watford during the 2010-11 season and scored his first senior goals for Villa at the end of the following campaign.
"I'm really happy that I've signed. I love the club and it's been brilliant for me, for I have a feeling of being at home here at Aston Villa," he told the official club website
"I've been here for six seasons now, having started with the academy in 2006, and last season was tremendous for me and terrific for the team the way we played over the second half of a really demanding campaign.
"Like the other young players in the team, I want to keep improving as a player and keep pushing Villa as high as we can in the Premier League.
"I feel like I owe the manager and the club because the manager backed me last season after he came in and I have always felt comfortable and really supported at the club.
"The supporters, too, have been brilliant with me and they've really taken to me which I'm delighted about. It means everything to know you have support like that. The whole team feels the same way. It's great to be a part of an exciting future at Villa."
Villa boss Paul Lambert added: "Andi has shown a great work ethic and that's the big thing about him, along with his quality. He has drive and a hunger to succeed and that's vital. That's what we're looking for here at Villa.
"He got a sustained run at it last season and he showed the quality that marks him out as a natural finisher. He definitely knows where the goal is and his performances on that right side, coming off the lines, have been really great."

Hey ladies, I am 35 weeks I have slowly been going into the early stages of labor for a little over 2 weeks now, my obgyn/hospital however called me "the girl who cried wolf" up until yesterday, and now they are oh so concerned that I will hav her early...my almost 3 cm dilated cervix finally got their attention at my last doctors appointment. To make a long story shorter, they gave me a prescription to slow down my contractions, however due to personal issues, and this pregnancy being so much harder than my frist...I am iffy on taking the meds, expecially after taking the frist dose and ending up with massive migraines and nausea. So my question is would your obgyn try to stop labor at 35 weeks? And if any of you had your baby at 35 weeks how healthy we're they? I could stay in this stage of labor for another week, however I have "the feeling" that she will come when she is ready and that that will happen within the next three days or so.
35 weeks and in the early stages of labor

Oh and my contractions aren't painful or really regular yet either. They are becoming more regular, but still not painful I still work, walk talk and play with my three year old son at this point.
Posted 05/08/2013
35 weeks is a little early most drs won't stop labor till sfter 37 weeks because your baby's lungs aren't mature yet. I've heard stories of babies in Nicu at 35 weeks. Follow drs advice that baby needs some more time to grow!

|Website : Tiruppadaimarathur Conservation Reserve
TIRUPPADAIMARATHUR Conservation Reserve is an IUCN Category V protected bird nesting area in the 2.84 hectares (7.0 acres) compound of Siva temple [1] in TIRUPPADAIMARATHUR village, Tirunelveli District, Tamil Nadu, South India, at: 10°59′44″N 79°27′10″E / 10.99556°N 79.45278°E. It was declared Feb 14, 2005 and is the first Conservation Reserve to be established in India. The reserve is 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Kalakkad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve.[1]
The village community and Tamil Nadu Forest Department manage the area. Community participation and public support is crucial for any conservation effort to succeed. Amendments to the Wild life Protection Act in 2003, provided a mechanism to provide recognition and legal backing to community initiated efforts in wildlife protection. It provides for a flexible system wherein wildlife conservation is achieved without compromising community needs. Tiruppadaimarathur Conservation Reserve is the result of the village community coming forward to protect the birds nesting in their village and acting for declaration of a conservation reserve. This reserve was declared by Government of Tamil Nadu G.O.Ms. No.17 Environment and Forests Dept.[2]
Fauna and flora[edit]
Over 400 little egrets, pond heron and near threatened painted stork nest in this grove of 20 huge, century-old maruthu, mahwa, neem and illuppai trees and feed in the many agricultural fields, a few ponds and the Tamiraparani River adjacent to it. Pond heron and egrets also nesting in backyards of few village houses, while painted storks are only around the temple. Spot-billed pelicans also come for refuge but are not nesting.[2]

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Monday, July 30, 2012
COLUMBIA COUNTY, Ga. -- The Georgia Department of Community Health is investigating the Knob Hill Assisted Living Center in Evans.
State officials will not comment on the details of the investigation since it's ongoing.
Brenda Ennis contacted News 12 On Your Side after removing her brother from Knob Hill two weeks ago.
"I feared for his safety," Ennis said.
Ennis says she received an anonymous phone call a few weeks ago. The person told her that her brother was involved in a fight with another resident at Knob Hill.
"My brother has definitely been in an altercation and his face is very beat up," she said.
Ennis' brother is in poor health and on medications. As a nurse, Ennis was horrified to learn nobody at the facility called EMS.
"And especially for nobody to even care and that I had to get an anonymous phone call from somebody to let me know," she said. "How can that happen, you know?"
Ennis removed her brother from Knob Hill Assisted Living that day.
News 12 On Your Side learned there was a change of management shortly after that incident. The owner stepped down and the previous owner stepped back up.
Carol Williams says she is now back in control of Knob Hill Assisted Living Center. She leased the facility to Ryan Hunt last fall. He stepped down as the manager/owner last week.
Hunt told News 12 Knob Hill is suffering from some financial problems.
Williams says DCH has made two trips over the last two weeks to Knob Hill. She says they are investigating the incident involving Ennis' brother and a complaint about a lack of food in the facility. She also says she let six employees go because of financial reasons.
Williams also says that DCH removed two patients last week that required more care than Knob Hill can provide.

stowe mountian blue trails???
I'm going up to Stowe soon and was wondering how difficult their blue trails are. I know your opinions are relatively subjective but i'm asking anyways. Which blue runs that they have are considered easier? Better yet, anyone been to camelback mountain in the poconos and compare their blues with stowe's? Anybody?? Thanks
Just went to Stowe for the first time last month. I'm down in MD where most of the local slopes are 15-20 trails. A blue trail at Stowe would probably be considered a black at any of the places around here. The blues on Spruce Peak (there are two "mountains" at the resort, Spruce Peak and the main attraction Mt. Mansfield, separated by a parking lot with a gondola transfer) are considerably easier than the ones on Mansfield.

Our Healthy Recipes App Gets a Facelift and New Features!
Starting today, if you're on an Apple device, can use our totally redesigned Healthy Recipes app. This new design might be old hat for some of our Android users since they've had the design for about a month, but today iOS app users get it too. It's our biggest redesign to our recipe app in years. Every change we made to the app was done to make it faster, easier to use and prettier to look at--and the many of the changes came from your suggestions. It's a good day. :)
Let's talk about the changes to the newest version of our Healthy Recipes app:The biggest change you'll notice right away is the look and feel of the app. Because the recipes are easier to read and nicer to look at, you can get a better idea about the recipes while browsing them. The images are bigger, and we show you the calories per serving and the time it will take to make the recipes, right there on the picture. This will save you time: If you're only looking for recipes that you can make in 10 minutes or less, you won't have to click into each recipe to see if it fits--you can just search for recipes that sound good and scan down the results until you find exactly what you want.
The second thing you'll notice is how much faster the app is to use. It's easier to get around the app and recipes load faster. Our team did a good deal of work on the back end of the app to speed up your experience and it shows. While you can't see these changes, you'll definitely notice them. :)
Finally, we did add something else many of you have been asking about for awhile: a shopping list. You can now add any recipe to your shopping list by clicking the red button at the bottom of the recipe and we'll arrange all the ingredients for you in an easy-to-use list that you can take with you to the store. You're going to love this--it's one of our office's favorite new features.
We also removed two items: Our conversion tools section and our "how-to" cooking videos. Most of our members didn't use these parts of the app, so we decided to unclutter it a bit by getting rid of them. For those of you who want to see the videos, you can find them here: https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/videos-home.asp
We hope you love the newest version of our Healthy Recipes app as much as we do! And if you haven't downloaded the app yet, you can find it here.
9 Health & Fitness Fallacies We Fell for 10 Years Ago
Ab Rocket was the secret to six-pack abs,that tank-top-ready arms were just a Shake Weight away, walking a mile in Sketchers Shape Ups was preferred to walking in boots and that the Nintendo WII was the answer to crushing childhood obesity and making home workouts fun again.
Luckily, we've debunked plenty of myths since then, among them that butter and fat aren't all bad, fitness can be fun (Zumba, anyone?) and women have a place in the weight room. To show just how far we've all come and remember that sometimes hype should be taken with a grain of salt, let's take a trip down misconception lane to revisit some of the fallacies that were once widespread beliefs.

12 Affordable Athleisure Brands that Look Great As You Lose Weight
Losing weight is hard work, but if you've witnessed any success in your own weight loss efforts, you know that the work is worth it. As you begin to lose weight, you'll find that your whole attitude about yourself is rosier, sunnier and more positive. But, as you reach to turn off the 5 a.m. alarm, are you still reaching for your old workout clothes? The unflattering ones that hang off your body, slouch in all the wrong places and look like they belong to someone else? If so, it's time for a change.

15 Things to Tell Yourself When You Want to Quit
Queen queued up," she said. "All together now: Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time. I feel ali-hi-hi-hive and the world, it's turning inside out! I'm floating around in ecstasy. So don't stop me now. Don't stop me, 'cause I'm having a good time, having a good time!"
Freddie and friends carried me all the way through the tears that tough day two and on to the Sun Gate two days later. When that quitting part of the brain starts raising its voice, it's staring myself in the mirror and repeating that classic Marine saying, "Pain is weakness leaving the body," or mouthing the words to "Work This Body" that keeps me going. Angry breakup song lyrics work well, or sometimes it's literally visualizing looking like a rock star in that dress I bought last month. Whether it's a breathing technique, mantra, your group fitness instructor shouting a one-sentence inspiration or song that keeps you going, having the ability to power through that moment of wanting to quit is key in any kind of training.

- Keywords testcases assertContains assertNotContains added
- Needs documentation unset
- Needs tests unset
- Patch needs improvement unset
A little rational behind the patch;
Python raised the UnicodeDecodeError because it's asked to count a unicode string within a non-unicode string.
HttpResponse's content property uses smart_str to create content data, it would seem to make sense to do
the same for any text used in assertContains and assertNotContains.
I've added an updated patch to this ticket which uses smart_str(text, response._charset) which matches the HttpResponse
object behavior. Could also have used settings.DEFAULT_CHARSET but it seems with ticket #10190 this might change later on so response._charset seems a safer bet :)

comment:7 Changed 7 years ago by trbs
- Resolution invalid deleted
- Status changed from closed to reopened
The reason the test case did not fail was because the assertion is not unicode.
I've attached a test case that does fail, it uses some Japanese in the template and tries to match a Unicode string in assertContains. Also attached a slight improvement on the patch for testcases.py because before a failed assertion did not use the smart_str version of the text resulting in "AssertionError: <unprintable AssertionError object>"
With the new test case it fails as follows:
====================================================================== ERROR: test_unicode_contains (regressiontests.test_client_regress.models.AssertContainsTests) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/trbs/django/trunk/tests/regressiontests/test_client_regress/models.py", line 71, in test_unicode_contains self.assertContains(r, '\xe5\xb3\xa0'.decode('utf-8')) File "/home/trbs/django/trunk/django/test/testcases.py", line 333, in assertContains real_count = response.content.count(text) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe5 in position 2: ordinal not in range(128) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ran 48 tests in 4.005s FAILED (errors=1) Destroying test database...

Interested in Zuckerburg's billions? Well, here's a chance
Facebook Inc, in its first stock offering since going public last year, said the company and stakeholders are selling $3.85bn worth of shares, Bloomberg reported.
Facebook priced 70mn shares at $55.05 apiece, according to a statement on Friday. About 27mn will be offered by the company, with an additional 41.35mn by chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg, who will use most of the cash to pay taxes incurred from exercising options.
The sale coincides with Facebook's inclusion in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, an event that triggers demand from index funds and other institutions that need to purchase the stock.
Facebook said it will use the proceeds for working capital and other corporate purposes. Marc Andreessen, a Facebook board member, is also selling 1.65mn shares.
Facebook closed unchanged at $55.05 in New York on Friday. The stock has more than doubled this year, rebounding from its troubled debut in May 2012 that wiped away half the company's market value in its first three months on the market.
S&P had announced that as of the close of trading on December 20, it plans to include Facebook's Class A common stock in the S&P 500 Index.
Zuckerberg is separately donating 18mn shares on December 31, according to a filing on December 19. Those shares, currently valued at $992mn, are being given to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, according to a person with knowledge of the matter, who asked not to be identified because the information is private.
Vanessa Chan, a spokeswoman for Facebook, declined to comment. Sue McAllister, a spokeswoman for the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, didn't respond to a request for comment.
The charity donation plus his share sale accounts for more than 10% of Zuckerberg's Facebook holdings. Along with a stock sale for tax purposes and a charity contribution last year, the CEO has sold or gifted about 20% of his Facebook stake.
Zuckerberg is the 22nd-richest person in the world, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with a net worth of $26.9bn.

text: Steve, I posed a question and forgot to come back for an answer. Thanks for the info on the CC. I once asked at a CC why they didn't expand Big Boy into Tennesee but got no real answer. Swamp, I am not wildly enthusiastic, but if you believe car production in US+Europe+Japan (with less emphasis on Japan) will stay flat to move up some, then ALV might be a decent buy. Also, if you think the economy will be at least decent, ACO is pricier than I like, but has a great record and management. Actually, I think I have mentioned them before. I guess you can infer I bought into CLE, but it is no great bargain. LAKE is worth watching, as is RBIN.

Fever-inducing versatility.
Terms like "daily driver" and "one ski quiver" get tossed around a lot in ski shops, lift lines, and magazines, but if there ever was a ski to fill that fabled niche, it would have to be the Line Sick Day 110 Ski. Its versatile design gives you what you need to effortlessly float pow, punch through crud, and rail down groomers with confidence. With a 110mm waist and an Early Rise tip for easy turn initiation and effortless float, this ski is meant to expand your thinking of how fun and varied a day on the mountain can really be. Designed with Capwall construction, the Sick Day blends the light and responsive performance of cap construction with the smooth, solid feel of sidewall.
The 110's widest point of sidecut starts tapering earlier in the tip to reduce tail drag and hooking in powder so you can smoothly munch pow, crud, and soft snow. Line's engineers also gave the 110 a Maplelite Macroblock wood core which has solid maple wood underfoot with lightweight aspen at the tips for durability and reducing swing weight. ThinTip technology reduces unnecessary weight, and Directional Flex technology varies flex to allow for easy turn initiation while still providing power and stability at speed. Also packed in there is 5-Cut technology which blends five different sidecut radius shapes into one for intuitive control and infinite turn shapes.
- Early Rise profile (early rise tip and tail, camber underfoot)
- Capwall hybrid constuction
- Macroblock core (aspen with maple stringers)
- 110mm waist width
- 5-Cut sidecut
- Thin tip
- Item #LIN001X

Line Sick Day Series
Do you think that a true touring dynafit style binding will be enough to drive these? I was contemplating putting Radical ST 2.0s on it, however my alternate choice would be to go with a serious performance alpine binding (FKS 140?) and continue to use my Soul 7s a tour ski? Thoughts from you wonderful folks?
Hi Benjamin,
I think that the ST 2.0 would be plenty to drive these skis. I know two people (one male, one female) that have that exact setup and have never expressed any problems with compatibility.
If you need anything else, just let me know.

This letter was sent at the same time I requested a payment history in which I recieved via Fax along with another HomEq Servicing customers' Payment History! I have contacted that customer and told him that I recieved his information along with mine and he stated that he is going through the same thing with HomEq Servicing Corp.
February 1, 2003
HomEq Servicing Corp.
4837 Watt Ave., Ste. 100
North Highlands, CA 95660
(888) 892-0640
Dear _______:
Subject: FORBEARANCE AGREEMENT
I am a customer with First Union Mortgage and quite some time back my mortgage was turned over to HomEq Servicing Corp. In the year 2000, I had moved into a very bad position with my mortgage and in the early part of 2001, HomEq Servicing gave me the opportunity to bring my mortgage current through a repayment program. I was very pleased to have this opportunity since the burden of default was on me.
HomEq Servicing Corp. initiated a repayment plan and submitted it to me in May 2001. The plan requested a down payment of $0,000.00 dollars and an additional $000.00 dollars along with my regular monthly payment of $0,000.00 dollars, totaling $0,000.00 dollars. After the $0,000.00 dollar down payment, $0,000.00 would be payable with certified funds each month for the following (18) months, final payment due November 2002. At this point my mortgage would be current!
All payments were made during the (18) month agreement strictly by the agreement! Even though I fulfilled this agreement, according to HomEq Servicing, I failed!
At the end of November 2002, I made the final payment according to the agreement and also made my December 2002 payment early. At this point HomEq Servicing sent me a letter stating that I had defaulted on my Forbearance Agreement. After many days and hours on the telephone with various representatives of HomEq Servicing Corp., it seems as though no one can really give me a straight answer.
These are the reasons that I have received from HomEq Servicing in a very serious situation concerning my Home. Yes, Mr. __________, you have made all payments according to the contract, but-
1. You were given an (18) month contract in which HomEq does not offer any more due to the fact most consumers cannot and will not fulfill the (18) month Agreement. (I did, so what does this statistic have to do with my situation)
2. We (HomEq Servicing) have put in place a new computer system that automatically does the Forbearance Agreement set-up, only for (6) months. Therefore your (18) month agreement did not register with the system correctly and the computer kicked it out as DEFAULT.
3. The new computer system recalculated your Forbearance Agreement which the total owed came out higher than the Original Agreement signed in May 2001. Therefore you are in Default because you have not paid all that is owed!
4. Mr. _________, you talk about this so-called written Forbearance Agreement, we (HomEq Servicing) do not have access or even have this Agreement because it was created such a long time ago! We (HomEq Servicing) have no proof that it actually even existed because of the time period involved! To these remarks, I offered to fax the HomEq Servicing Agreement to the representatives and their supervisors. They were not interested and stated that it would nothing to the fact that I am in Default.
5. I stated to HomEq representatives that I fulfilled the agreement and that according to this I was not in Default. I was told to forget the Agreement and that according to the new system I was in default and that if I do not pay the balance owed, HomEq Servicing will pursue foreclosure on my property!
I have also requested many times for a statement of my account since May 2001 and they will not release this until my account is brought current according to the New Amount owed! The last statement that I have received is July 2000, from First Union Mortgage.
First and foremost, I was fortunate that HomEq Servicing allowed me the opportunity to fulfill my obligation on my home mortgage and bring it current! This Agreement was fulfilled all the way to the end! I thank you and your company for the opportunity!
Second, I do not feel that it is justified for HomEq Servicing Corp. to place me in default because of a new computer system that was put in place during the course of my Agreement with HomEq Servicing, which recalculated my terms and worse than that, not one individual from HomEq notified me to advice me of the new found dollar amount.
Third, this new dollar amount owed is approximately equal to (1) one months payment, plus additional accruing attorney fees and late fees that no one ever mentioned during the (18) months.
Therefore HomEq Servicing Corp. has reported to the Credit Bureaus that I am (30) thirty days past due every month for the entire course of the payment terms. Needless to say this has totally destroyed my personal credit!
Final, HomEq Servicing has not honored what they put in writing, because of a new computer system, supposedly!
The representatives have no concern what so ever regarding this agreement! Quote: As a consumer, you are obligated to pay what we show is owed, period, regardless of what this agreement outlines and regardless of the prompt payment for the past (19) nineteen months. The new hidden amount being reported to the Credit Bureau has totally destroyed any credit worthiness that I had. Simply put, I honored what HomEq Servicing Corp. outlined concerning my mortgage and I am paying a heavy price for it on my credit worthiness (HomEq showing the (30) day late pay every month) and worse the possibility of foreclosure if I do not fulfill the request of the new found amount!
The reality is that I honored the HomEq Servicing Agreement outlined by HomEq Servicing, the very agreement that HomEq Servicing is choosing to breech. And no one at HomEq Servicing seems to be concerned about anything except the revised amount owed and there is no one above the representatives (supervisor or manager) that will acknowledge and honor this Agreement either!
HomEq Servicing Corp. generated this Agreement; I did not. The only authority I had was to honor it, in which I did, right down to the final payment, with every Western Union receipt in hand!
Due to the serious nature of all the above, I need to know who and where to make contact with HomEq Servicing to resolve this matter!
From a consumer stand point; HomEq Servicing Corp. has put me in a wrongful, dishonorable Catch 22 situation with representatives demonstrating no concern!
Can you advice me as to where I can fax the Forbearance Agreement provided by HomEq Servicing Corp. to someone who may be concerned with what was outlined by HomEq Servicing Corp.?
Thanking you in advance for your prompt attention!
Sincerely yours,
Charlotte, North Carolina
