Sorry Maa Aayana Intlo Unnadu in DTS mixing
Producer says, "We shot the entire film in a single schedule. Each scene was shot in a very interesting manner by the director. A girl from a middle-class family dreams a lot about her married life. But her marriage takes places quite opposite to her dreams. What kind of circumstances she faced during her marital life is the basic plot of the film. The film could be said to be a triangular love story. The film has a lots of entertainment and at the same time, it has a very good message imbibed in it. Ruthika"s performance would be the special attraction. The combination scenes involving Shakeela and Suman Shetty would be very interesting and entertaining. We will complete all the post-production formalities as soon as possible and release the film very soon."

Missouri Library Association Honors KCPL's Elena McVicar
For Immediate Release:
October 31, 2013
October 31, 2013
Contact: Steven Woolfolk
Missouri Library Association Honors KCPL's Elena McVicar
Elena McVicar, Youth Services Librarian at the Bluford Branch of the Kansas City Public Library, has been awarded the Missouri Library Association's Outstanding New Librarian Award.
The honor recognizes a librarian who has made a significant contribution to the improvement and advancement of library and information services.
In her 18 months with Kansas City Public Library, McVicar has been instrumental in planning and implementing programs for adolescents.
"My most important accomplishment has been the branch lock-ins - which allow adolescents to sleep over at their local branches - and the Teen Trips," she says. "Planning these with several other youth librarians was incredibly fun and successful. I am also really proud of the East High Book Club that I am a part of and the relationships I have created with the children and teens of the community."
McVicar came to Kansas City Public Libary directly from Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts, where she received masters degrees in both Library and Information Science and Children's Literature.
During her college years she was an intern for the Boston Public Library and held jobs at Wheelock College and the local Borders book store. During her undergraduate years at Kansas State University she worked in the school's Veterinary Medical Library.
McVicar says she is looking forward to planning another year of summer reading for the city's children and to bringing unique programs to patrons of the Bluford Branch.
McVicar received the award earlier this month at the Missouri Library Association's annual conference.

"The BFU's refereeing commission is seriously concerned by the rise of referees' mistakes and (want) ... all officials to adhere strictly to the rules of the game," the commission said in a statement on Thursday after outlining the suspension.
No details were given about the length of the suspensions.
Ivaylo Stoyanov (pictured) and his assistant Veselin Mishev have been taken off the roster for poor officiating during Levski Sofia's 1-1 draw at Cherno More Varna in the Bulgarian league on Saturday, the BFU's refereeing commission said.
Levski levelled the score after 12 minutes when Slovenian Rene Mihelic scored from what seemed to be a two-metre offside position, sparking furious protests from the Cherno More players and coaching staff.
Kalin Lyudmilov and linesman Ivaylo Milkov were suspended for blunders during Lokomotiv Sofia's controversial 1-0 win at city rivals CSKA in the Bulgarian Cup's quarter-finals on Wednesday.
Less than 10 minutes from time, Lyudmilov awarded a free kick and then wrongly changed his decision after consulting Milkov, awarding a penalty with Lokomotiv's Daniel Peev scoring the winner from the spot.
Lyudmilov also showed a second yellow card to CSKA defender Kostadin Stoyanov amid chaotic scenes over the penalty decision only to rescind his decision and show a yellow to Stoyanov's team mate Apostol Popov instead.
Referee suspensions are not uncommon in Bulgaria with dozens of officials receiving bans in recent seasons.

I just don't know how to get rid of these people and stop them from contacting me. I asked questions of the caller from Altig who did give me a telephone number, but upon calling it to state that I would not be interested, the voice mail didn't even belong to the individual who was calling for the interview.
Perhaps one of the cold calling sales pitches involves recruiting other members into their organization.
For those that are truly interested all the power to them to work for this company.... but perhaps the company should learn that NO is NO and be truthful in their recruitment process... as most of us now are much smarter and will do research on a company in preparation for an interview.

The leaders have 70 points with two matches remaining and can secure the crown next week with a victory at home to bottom club Willem II Tilburg.
Breda, five points above the relegation playoffs, played well in the first half and went close to scoring when a header from Eric Botteghin hit the bar.
Iceland striker Kolbeinn Sigthorsson then put the visitors in front two minutes into the second half when he netted despite having his back to goal.
Five minutes later Tim Gilissen headed the ball into his own goal as he tried to clear a corner at the near post.
"It wasn't easy today. They started at a furious pace and put us under pressure but the opening goal settled us down," said Ajax skipper Siem de Jong.
Jeremain Lens struck twice as second-placed PSV Eindhoven remained four points off the pace with a 5-2 win over Groningen.
Tim Matavz, Dries Mertens (penalty) and Mark van Bommel were also on target for PSV while Michael de Leeuw bagged a double for Groningen.
Second from bottom VVV Venlo raced four points clear of Willem II with a 1-1 draw at ADO Den Haag.
The bottom club go down and the next two teams go through to a relegation playoff.

Newsletter subscription (via a page using the [ALO-EASYMAIL-PAGE] shortcode) works fine but how do users un-subscribe?
I did a test subscription (not as registerd user) in a fresh browser but unlike a logged in user, I see no option unsubscribe... It might be a wise idea to create the possibility to add a 'unsubscribe' link (as oposite of the confirmation link; which is actually required by law in most countries) in the newsletter templates. Or is that already possible?
Thanks :)

A now-retired former teammate has joined other female commentators blasting U.S. Soccer for allowing goalkeeper Hope Solo to keep playing while domestic abuse allegations remain unresolved.
Coach Jill Ellis, meanwhile, essentially punted when asked about Solo today in a conference call with reporters to discuss the roster:
"I've had a lot of thought and discussion within U.S. Soccer and certainly we acknowledge these are very serious issues," Ellis said. "But after careful thought and consideration, we determined to stand by our decision to let the legal process play out and have Hope remain with the team."
The column appeared Monday in USA Today and in emails circulated to media outlets. Read it after the jump.

- Individual patients may suffer considerably as a result of therapeutic nihilism resulting from overemphasis on risk avoidance.
- Moreover, the media giants' overemphasis on a few large demographic blocs has neglected many other, smaller audiences, and has contributed immensely to the dumbing down of both news and entertainment.

Lafcadio's Adventures (Paperback)
This Book Is Not Sold Online - In Store Special Order Only
Special Order
Passing with cinematographic speed across the capitals of Europe, Nobel laureate Andre Gide's Lafcadio's Adventures is a brilliantly sly satire and one of the clearest articulations of his greatest theme: the unmotivated crime.
When Lafcadio Wluiki, a street-smart nineteen-year-old in 1890s Paris, learns that he's heir to an ailing French nobleman's fortune, he's seized by wanderlust. Traveling through Rome in expensive new threads, he becomes entangled in a Church extortion scandal involving an imprisoned Pope, a skittish purveyor of graveyard statuary, an atheist-turned-believer on the edge of insolvency, and all manner of wastrels, swindlers, aristocrats, adventurers, and pickpockets. With characteristic irony, Gide contrives a hilarious detective farce whereby the wrong man is apprehended, while the charmingly perverse Lafcadio--one of the most original creations in all modern fiction--goes free.

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus
Rhoda Burrows – 8/29/2016
In recent days we have been asked about numerous tomato plants that were looking sick after being transplanted, with leaves turning yellow, and plants very stunted. In some cases the leaves had some purplish-bronze tinge to them. The soil did not seem to be a factor, as some of the adjacent plants were thriving, with lush dark-green foliage. The suspected agent was a virus, as the symptoms did not fit any of the common fungal or bacterial diseases common in South Dakota, and samples were sent to the SDSU Plant Diagnostic Lab.

It's a question that the Spencer County Bears' basketball team should be asking itself as both the calendar and season turns to 2011.
Come March, 16 teams from across Kentucky will play their way to Rupp Arena to participate in the State Tournament. No team from Spencer County has ever made it to the Sweet 16, but each year there seems to be some school celebrating their debut appearance.
The Spencer County Lady Bears got 2011 off to a great start with a 44-27 victory over district foe Shelby County at home Monday night.
The Lady Bears jumped out early by scoring the game's first nine points and led 17-5 after one quarter.
Shelby County closed the gap by scoring the first five points of the second quarter before MacKenzie Myers hit one of two free throws to push it back to 18-10. The Bears went into the halftime break with a 20-10 advantage.
The Spencer County Bears completed a 2-2 swing throught the Lloyd Memorial Invitational Tournament last week but felt it should have been better.
After an opening-round 81-64 loss to a very quick Covington Holmes squad, the Bears bounced back to win a thrilling 48-47 contest over Bishop Brossart.
The Bears then squared off against Cooper High School and dropped a heartbreaker of a game, 51-50.
In that game, the Bears led most of the way, but lost on a tip-in at the buzzer.
The Spencer County School District could have a new policy soon on how to deal with head lice, citing the old policy as being unjust and outdated.
One longtime employee of the county was replaced and others had their positions modified as part of a marathon Fiscal Court meeting on Monday.
The incoming court, which included new Judge Executive Bill Karrer, made the personnel announcements at the close of a six-and-half-hour meeting — more than half of which was spent in state-authorized private executive session.
(Editor's note: The following article was written by The Springfield Sun newspaper as part of a continuing series looking at local fire department issues.)
The City of Springfield and Washington County are currently served by two separate fire departments. Each department operates on its own budget, with its own sources of income. However, the departments are primarily made up of the same firefighters doing the work when a fire arises.
City of Taylorsville officials have elected to pursue a downsized version of a mandated wastewater treatment plant expansion after initial construction bids came back much higher than anticipated.
The Taylorsville City Commission, in a special meeting Dec. 29, unanimously voted to approve several cost-cutting measures for the proposed expansion and enter into "competitive negotiations" with contractors who a few weeks earlier submitted the three lowest bids on the original design.
Ringing in the new year was hardly done in a traditional way for Spencer County Sheriff Buddy Stump.
Stump, who last November won a narrow election over sitting sheriff Steve Coulter, scrambled to assemble a staff on New Year's Eve when Coulter confirmed his rumored early resignation — two days before the state-mandated end to his term.
A theft of about $12,000 in copper wire from a local construction site has prompted the contractor to offer a reward in connection with the crime.
Spencer County School District officials are considering fencing in a bus storage lot at the intersection of Main Cross and Back Alley that has been a point of concern for bus drivers and Spencer County Board of Education members.
At the November board meeting, member Sandy Clevenger discussed that several drivers approached her with issues relating to bus vandalism and safety, noting parked buses could not be locked and were subject to any pedestrians or vandals passing by the lot.

Dear Shanie San Jose,
If you are not sensitive to Vitamin C, you should able to use Facial Treatment Essence. Some SK-II whitening products, such as Whitening Spots Specialists Essence, also contains Vitamin C which can be used with Facial Treatment Essence to enhance whitening result.
For Benzoyl Peroxide, if you use it in low dosage, such as a face cleanser with Benzoyl Peroxide, it should be fine to use Facial Treatment Essence. However, you might also need a well hydrating product to moist and re-hydrate your skin to prevent dryness and fine lines.
Try SK-II Stempower Essence (for anti-aging, smoothing and moisturizing) or less expensive product such as Juju Cosmetics AquaMoist Hyaluronic Acid which is formulated in gentle ingredients to re-hydrate your skin.
These hydrating essences should be used after cleansing, toning and SK-II Facial Treatment Essence.

Is Nicolas Cage Immortal? 19th Century Photo Says He Is...
Has the Ghost Rider star lived for 140 years? A photo of him dated 1870 suggests so and is selling on eBay for a cool $1 million!
Has the Ghost Rider star lived for 140 years? A photo of him dated 1870 suggests so and is selling on eBay for a cool $1 million!
Nicolas Cage is perhaps the most bonkers leading man in Hollywood history. Not only does he pick the strangest film roles year in/year out, not only does he have a son named Kal-El (yes, named after Superman), not only does he have a giant pyramid tomb already set as his resting place in a New Orleans cemetery, not only does he make $40 million a year but regularly find himself in near financial ruin (see extravagant purchases such as the tomb) but now it appears he has lived on this Earth for 140 years.
Thomas Archive, a digital photo archiver who have snaps going all the way back to the 1840's, recently discovered a photo dated 1870 of who appears to be a dapper looking Cage that they are now trying to sell on eBay for a cool $1 million. The reason for the heavy price? Well because it proves an immortal lives among us.
Here's the photo and description;
The seller, jack_mord, surprisingly has 100% feedback from 2312 transactions to date.Original c.1870 carte de visite showing a man who looks exactly like Nick Cage. Personally, I believe it's him and that he is some sort of walking undead / vampire, et cetera, who quickens / reinvents himself once every 75 years or so. 150 years from now, he might be a politician, the leader of a cult, or a talk show host.This is not a trick photo of any kind and has not been manipulated in Photoshop or any other graphics program. It's an original photo of a man who lived in Bristol, TN sometime around the Civil War.
For the many of you insisting that this is a Photoshop manipulation: Any serious potential buyer will be allowed to have a photo expert of their choice examine the original photograph before any money changes hands.
I've had a lot of questions asking where I purchased this. As followers of my website know, I collect antique memorial photography -images of dead people - from the 1800s. This photo was found in the very back of album that contained an unusual number of Civil War era death portraits (which is why I purchased it). All of the other people in the album, living and dead, were identifiedby name - this man was not.
Of course the photo would explain a lot as perhaps living this long has turned Cage a little crazy (think the Vampire Lestat in Interview With The Vampire) and his boredorm for the never ending mundanity of life has made him this way. Or perhaps he is actually a Vampire and has kept it quiet all these years?
What do you think?

Problem I'm having is that upon trying to scroll to the bottom of the page, the pge bounces back to the bottom of the content. Very stressful.
Anyways, this is my first design, I disabled all plugins, still happened. I re-enabled the SEO plugin, because it wasn't any of them, and still seeming to have problems.
Open to suggestions, comments, and snippets of code to use.
Many thanks.
Also, I'm using Shoestrap theme, which is a Roots child theme/independent theme.
I suspect there's an issue in the theme files, since it's not a plugin, and doesn't happen with other themes, but I'm not a programmer, and dunno where to look.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) -- Jeff Garcia's 12-yard touchdown pass to
fellow NFL veteran Robert Ferguson with 6 seconds left gave the
Omaha Nighthawks their first lead of the game and a 27-26 United
Football League victory over the Hartford Colonials.
The dramatic finish overshadowed Maurice Clarett's quiet return
to football Friday night. Clarett had a short kickoff return and
nearly blocked a punt in his first game since leading Ohio State to
the 2002 national championship.
Omaha came back from a 23-10 deficit after three quarters to win
before a UFL-record crowd of 23,067.
After Ferguson scored, the former Green Bay Packer leapt into
the end zone seats, a la the Lambeau Leap. Jeff Wolfert kicked the
winning extra point.
The five-team UFL is in its second season as a place for aging
veterans and borderline NFL players looking for another chance in
the big time.

Typhoon Haiyan – An Appeal for Help
Over a month ago Typhoon Haiyan hit the Tacloban City, Philippines the town and country I grew up in. The destruction was catastrophic to say the least affecting an entire region in over 300 kilometers. People lost family members, homes, jobs and livelihood among other things.
Aid has been overwhelming and we are ever so grateful. Relief in the form of food, water, medicines and temporary shelter has been provided and we can start from there.
The aim to be able to fully rebuild and rehabilitate our region will however take months and this is where I would like to appeal to you for your help.
Donating is not required but I would appreciate it so much if you share the link through your social media accounts.
Thank you.

After Nice, A Return to Vice
By GUY TREBAY
Published: June 8, 2003
THE contortionist perched at the edge of a transparent basin like a nymph on the rim of a cocktail glass. She peeled off her bra and slid into the water, followed by a woman who was her near mirror-image. The two began a submerged dance less acrobatic than erotic: their backs arched, their arms twined, their legs moved in anatomically improbable ways. Facing each other beneath the water, the pair mimed an embrace, then a kiss, then movements best left to a reader's imagination. Viewed from the platform of a rehearsal stage, the scene had the fuzzy unreality of soft-core fantasy.
Then, abruptly, the women shot to the surface and gulped at the air. ''That will give you an idea of where we're going,'' explained Lyn Heward, the creative president of Cirque du Soleil, matter of factly, as Bolormaa Zorigtkhuyag and Gyulnara Karaeva sat shivering at the edge of the tank. ''It's edgy and you can't be edgy if you don't provoke a few taboos,'' Ms. Heward said.
Months before opening its latest show in Las Vegas, the circus best known for its family-friendly entertainments was deep in rehearsal at its headquarters in Montreal for ''Zumanity,'' the company's first foray into what it terms an ''erotic cabaret,'' a $15 million production destined for a specially constructed theater at the New York-New York Casino and Hotel. The show opens Aug. 14.
Contortionists and stupendous aquatic effects are nothing novel for the celebrated Cirque du Soleil, whose shows ''O'' and ''Mystère'' have dominated casino entertainment on the fabled Strip for more than a decade. But ''Zumanity'' is something else entirely -- a mainstream entertainment that features among its acts a sadomasochistic prison scenario, a drag queen who channels Billie Holiday, and couplings in configurations across the sexual range.
Anyone following the fortunes of Las Vegas for the last couple of years is aware that a drive is on to forget 1990's efforts to transform the high-desert town into a family destination, and to return it to its deliriously seamy roots. The old and, some would say, glory days of Las Vegas were the ones when ''Minsky's Follies'' opened the state's first topless revue in 1957, when the word ''family'' evoked an altogether different set of associations, and when the Rat Pack minted an American brand of hedonistic glamor by boozing and womanizing and giving sin a slick veneer that signaled anything was permissible, provided the cut of your suit was sharp.
That was long ago, before the town attempted to recast its image as a desert Disneyland, incidentally furnished with craps tables and roulette wheels. The consensus on this particular strategy to fill casino coffers is that it was a spectacular flop. ''People enjoying the night life don't want to be dodging strollers,'' said Felix Rappaport, the president of the New York-New York casino.
The move toward family-friendly entertainment itself had been a reaction to falling revenues from gambling. Over the course of the 90's, nearly every major hotel on the Strip was leveled or rebuilt. The faded lobbies with their blotchy carpets and semipermanent lounge acts were replaced by air-conditioned labyrinths where time stretched out amid a din of maniacal voices issuing from slot machines (''WHEEL! OF! FORTUNE!''). Where flamingo pink neon once framed the names ''Elvis'' or ''Liberace'' there were now thrill rides, video game arcades and artificial volcanoes that spewed flames at 15-minute intervals.
''Casinos bait the trap with whatever it takes,'' said Anthony Curtis, a professional blackjack player who publishes The Las Vegas Advisor, a consumer newsletter dedicated to the gambling industry. ''It all worked very well,'' Mr. Curtis added, ''until the people actually started coming with their kids.''
Casino owners eventually recognized that family entertainment was not the way to rejuvenate their industry. ''The big money is never going to come from people who drink Shirley Temples,'' said Timothy McDarrah, who writes the VegasBeat column for The Las Vegas Sun.
So vice is the bait again, as sprawling lounges staffed by barely clad entertainers open weekly, strip clubs proliferate (their number has tripled in five years) and zipper signs above the Strip promote the message that ''Sin City Has Found Its Soul.''
''The new brand we're creating is one of freedom based on sensuality,'' said Oscar B. Goodman, the mayor of Las Vegas, who is the rare public official with his own liquor endorsement deal. Under Mayor Goodman, the city adopted a new ad campaign that turns on a kind of licentious koan: ''What Happens Here, Stays Here.''
''The bottom line is that people can come here, go to the brink of whatever's legal without having anyone look over their shoulder,'' the mayor said.
The roughly 34 million tourists who descend on Las Vegas each year will now encounter a city where the MGM Grand offers a dance show, ''La Femme,'' modeled after the one at the Crazy Horse saloon in Paris, although featuring costumes that make the French appear overdressed.
''What they basically wear is a merkin,'' Mr. Curtis explained.

Liverpool Message Board

You lost... get over it
Its annoying me the 'Pool fans who are clutching at straws to try and take something good from last night.
United got knocked out by the eventual winners, although we at least beat them. The fact that Liverpool got knocked out by them in the final rather than the semi's is irrelevant.
Liverpool rested their players for this game and still couldnt win. Other than Barcelona they didnt have a hard game all tournament, they beat a fatigued Chelsea ON PENALTIES.
Do you think if the semi finals had been reversed and you had played Milan over two legs things would have been any different? You lost against a Milan side in a neutral ground and they weren't even playing that well. I only wish it had stayed 2-0 so you couldnt call it a 'tight game'...
Face it, you lost. Excuses like 'at least we got one step further than the Manc scum' and 'cheating Itai's' just stink of sour grapes...Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I was over it the morning after. Milan took their chances and we didnt so they deserved to win.
The thing is, we are still building, our team will get stronger whilst other teams in the premier have almost peaked. The futures bright for us.

rahul_rsi... how exactly am I contradicting myself... do you understand what this word means?
lfcmob, yes Mascherano did mark Kaka out of the game, but the team does not revolve around him. Im not forgetting that milan made Uniteds defence look second rate, this is quite obvious. The fact of the matter was, Uniteds defence WAS 'second rate'... none of our first picks were available!! Its obvious that we were weakest in defence going into this game, and Milan exploited this.
And lets not talk about IF's... IF you had played over two legs what could have happened...
IF United hadnt been so injury plagued in defense...
If United had drawn Chelsea instead of Milan...
If Liverpool had actually played for both the League and the European Cup...
If If If...
Lets concentrate on what did happen shall we?
Finally rorjac... other teams in the premiership have peaked! hmmm... Arsenal have the youngest team in the PL, United WILL sign new players to replace Giggs, Scholes and Solksjaer.. Chelsea, well they can do waht they want cant they...
Also the reason Milan didn't play as well against Liverpool is that Maschereno marked Kaka out of the game where as in the second leg of the semi-final he made Uniteds defence look second rate. Also the BIG difference you are forgetting is United had two bites of the cherry and over 2 legs who's to say what the Liverpool Milan result would have been.
Seems to be the other way round my United friend!
"United got knocked out by the eventual winners, although we at least beat them. The fact that Liverpool got knocked out by them in the final rather than the semi's is irrelevant."
Sour grapes!!!! Your the one clutching at straws....So next time you start a thread try not to contradict yourself.
A Yahoo! User May 25, 2007 18:59 Flag
sounds like you have sour grapes about not being in the final.
I suppose there was nothing good came out of the FA cup final for Utd. You were resoundly beaten by the better team?
Liverpool drew with Chelsea over the 2 legs.
ManU LOST against Milan over the 2 legs.
Both beating the other team in 1 leg.
Getting knocked out by them in the final IS relevent, if the semis where the other way around would Utd have gone through either, having not beaten Chelsea all season?
Hard Games? Are Roma, Lille, Copenhagen, Celtic, Benfica any better than Chelsea, Barcalona, PSV, Galatasaray, Bordeaux? Utd wanted to steer well clear of Barca and Chelsea in both draws!
Sour grapes to you to.

Of course it would have been nice to see United get to the final, if only to shut up all the Scousers who think we can't 'make it' in Europe.
And I never said United had a hard draw, on paper it was easier than Liverpool's. But take out Barcelona and its not exactly hard. You beat Chelsea on penalties so nothing to brag about.
And yes, nothing good came out of the FA Cup final for United, one of the worst finals Ive ever watched... It would have been nice to do ANOTHER double this season but it is probably a fair result as Chelsea deserved something from the season. Liverpool on the other hand got what they deserved... nothing.
You say would the semi have been easier the other way around versus chelsea... ARE YOU SERIOUS?? I think every United fan in the world would have preferred to play Chelsea than Milan... you say we havent beaten them all season?? No we've DRAWN twice and lost 1-0 in the 25th minute of extra time in the other. If anything it shows how close these two teams are...
Liverpool on the other hand lost TWICE to United, once to Chelsea and THREE TIMES to Arsenal...

It's no surprise when Knot Just Pretzels in Penn Station gets a health inspection score that puts it in the C range — what is surprising is when the city's No. 1 restaurant, Le Bernardin, is thwacked with an even higher number of demerit points. The five-star eatery's hold message touts its Zagat, Times, and Michelin ratings, but what it doesn't mention is that it received 32 demerits (4 points above the C mark) on an inspection last Friday. Mais est-ce possible? Is Eric Ripert spending too much time broing down with Anthony Bourdain?

Toxicodendron rydbergii
Toxicodendron rydbergii (syn. Rhus rydbergii; Western poison ivy) is a species of Toxicodendron native to most of the United States except the southeastern states. It can be found growing in forests, and other wooded areas, usually near streams and rivers.[1]
Unlike Toxicodendron radicans (syn. Eastern poison ivy), which often appears as a trailing or climbing vine, Toxicodendron rydbergii is a shrub that can grow to 1 m (3 ft) tall, rarely up to 3 m (10 ft). The leaves are trifoliate and alternate. The leaflets are variable in size and shape, and are usually 15 cm (6 in) long, turning yellow or orange in autumn. On the compound trifoliate leaves, the two leaflets opposite each other are typically asymmetrical, in contrast to the terminal leaflet which always shows bilateral symmetry. The fruits are small, round, and yellowish.[1]
All parts of this plant contain Urushiol, which can cause severe dermatitis in some individuals.

|Christine Dillon.
Everybody loves a good story. In an age when prepackaged gospel formulations leave people cold, well-told Bible stories can be used powerfully by God to touch people's hearts and draw them to himself. After ministry in both Western and non-Western contexts, church planter Christine Dillon has discovered that Bible storying is far more effective than most other forms of apologetics or evangelistic presentations. In fact, non-Christians actually enjoyed storying and kept coming back for more. Storying provides solid biblical foundations so listeners can understand, apply and respond to the gospel, and then go on to fruitful maturity in God's service. This book includes practical guidance on how to shape a good story, how to do evangelism through storying and how to lead Bible discussions. With particular insights for trainers and those working in crosscultural contexts, this guide provides you with concrete steps for sharing the Story that everyone needs to hear.

JJpants don't take any offense to my comment. I actually appreciate the information. I already knew my risks where going to be high with this one. But I always factor in God and He's capable of miracles.

Hmm, wish I had won the lottery instead of having RPL, I mean being 1 in a million is all well in deed when it gets you millions of dollars but sucks when it just means your body once again has failed you even after seeing a HB.

Groves, Hearn Agree That Neutral Officials Are Needed
George Groves will refuse to fight Carl Froch unless the British Boxing Board of Control sanction neutral officials for their super-middleweight world title rematch at Wembley Stadium.
The 25-year-old Londoner has claimed the May 31 rematch, mandated by the IBF, will not go ahead unless the BBBofC allow a non-British crew of match officials.
Groves labelled the ninth-round stoppage by referee Howard Foster that handed Froch a controversial victory in November a "stonewall" robbery.
Promoter Eddie Hearn backed Groves' call for neutral officials, claiming the keenly-anticipated rematch will be the "biggest fight in British boxing history".
"It was a stonewall robbery first time, everyone knows it, and that's why I've requested neutral officials," said Groves.
"It's conditional on the fight going ahead.
"I don't believe in fate, but I do believe in everything happening for a reason.
"Maybe I had to go through that decision, that first fight, to get to the point where I can fight at Wembley, in my home city, in front of my home fans.
"I couldn't be more excited about this fight now.
"The first fight we went in believing: now we go in knowing.
"More importantly Froch knows. Apart from the gift in the ninth round last time out, he's got nothing. He's absolutely spent."
Groves nonchalantly completed a Rubic's Cube puzzle while Froch responded to his claims at Monday's press conference at Wembley Stadium to launch ticket sales.
Promoter Hearn backed Groves' call for neutral referees, but refused to apportion any blame to Foster for Froch's November victory.
"I feel the officials for this fight should be neutral," said Hearn.
"It's too big to have any blame or controversy.
"Howard Foster is a top-class official.
"George has made it clear to us he doesn't want British board officials on the fight on the night."
Hearn expects ticket sales to hit 80,000, that would set a new post-war British attendance record.
Nottingham-based Froch conceded he took Groves too lightly in their first meeting, but was not prepared to delve into the detail surrounding his victory.
"Everyone's entitled to their opinion on that fight," said Froch.
"But what I think about the stoppage is totally irrelevant.
"All I know is that it was controversial, and that's why we're here.
"There's going to be no question-marks this time around.
"It doesn't get any bigger than this.
"The platform to showcase my skills, I'm just so, so excited.
"To be given this opportunity, it's wonderful and we must take it with both hands.
"I'm excited this opportunity has come along at this time.
"To fight in an outdoor event of this magnitude, the last time I can remember anything like this was Ricky Hatton at Manchester City's ground.
"I can remember looking over my shoulder, just seeing a carpet of people, and thinking 'this is amazing'.
"I didn't think I'd get an opportunity like this, so it's extremely humbling."
Groves' trainer Paddy Fitzpatrick revealed he has written to the BBBofC, asking them to confirm Froch's fitness to box.
Unfazed 36-year-old Froch admitted he is yet to undertake his routine annual medical, but did not expect any complications.
"Actually I've got to go through my medicals, so I can't officially answer that yet," he said.
"We have an annual medical, we have a brain scan and we know what we've got to do.
"You don't want to tempt fate, and you don't want to talk about what can be a dark side of boxing.
"I'm fit, sharp and ready, there won't be any question marks come May 31."

Is anybody like me? Overzealous? Overambitious? Trying to do too many things at once? Trying to be perfect in everything? If so, I hope you can commiserate with me here.
I remember once when I took up the responsibility of leading a Christmas play for my church youth group. And surprise, surprise, my type "A" personality reared its ugly head. I got greedy, and tried to do too many things at once. Was I just satisfied with a small, simple play about the birth of Christ Jesus? No, I had to go all out to make it the most spectacular Broadway-style/ sing-along/ comedy/ parody/ drama/ tragedy/ hip-hop show.
I wrote the script. I translated the script (for the Chinese folks). I directed the script. I came up with the lyrics and the tunes and all the hip-hop dance moves. I made the costumes, the settings, the make-up. I rallied up the small youth group, assigned the roles, organized the rehearsals. I dreamed, seamed, schemed, and screamed. I thought I was Super-girl.
But unfortunately, even Super-girl isn't super in all things. I was totally burned out and stressed up. It was hard doing everything by myself, and my drive for perfection drove me and everybody crazy. In the end, the leading actor (Joseph) refused to do the play. I told him I didn't need him, and I ended up being Joseph (not funny!).
Anyway, long sob story short: My overzealousness and over-ambition ultimately weighed down the Christmas play, and it wasn't as good as it could have been if I only was willing to stick to a few simple categories and focused on that. I mean, seriously, just imagine a hip-hop dancing, rapping, female Joseph who tries to be both comedic and tragic at the same time. I'm cringing. What was I thinking?
You would have thought I'd learn my lesson. Oh, no. I remade that same mistake over again in the kitchen today.
Remember the potato gnocchi I had on Monday? I decided to try making that at home. Why spend money using store-bought gnocchi when it seemed easy enough to recreate at home?
Anyway, I had grand plans. I looked up online, and was dazzled by all the different kinds of gnocchi I could make. And I decided I wanted them all. Potato? Yes. Cottage cheese? Yes. Egg? Yes. Parmesan cheese? Yes. Mozzarella cheese? Yes. Asiago cheese? Yes, yes, yes!
I even wanted to add spinach or pumpkin or beet, but decided that was a bit too overboard. I thought I was being so good resisting, but har-har.
So, I boiled the potatoes:
I mashed it up by fork.
I mixed it up with egg, cottage cheese, the three cheeses, and white whole wheat flour.
I rolled them up into long tubes.
So far, so good.
I cut them up into plump little pillows.
I indented each pillow with a fork.
Everything seemed to go so smoothly, I was getting pretty proud of myself. Gnocchi? Hah! Call me an Italian grandmother!
I even created a brilliant new pesto recipe:
Blueberry-walnut Pesto
- 2 cups blueberries
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 cup basil leaves
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 cloves garlic
- dash of cinnamon and nutmeg
- salt
Directions: Grind it all up in my Vita-mix🙂
Beautiful, eh? A bit thick, but that's ok!
I started cooking the gnocchi in boiling water. It seemed to sort of disintegrate in the pot…but it still held it's shape, so I shrugged it off. It was my first time making gnocchi, so I thought maybe that was how it was supposed to be.
The problem came when I ladled the drained and cooked gnocchi onto a plate and mixed it up with the pesto. As I mixed, the gnocchi kind of flattened and turned gooey, like melted rubber. My heart fell. I knew there was something wrong with my gnocchi by then. I knew I should have stuck to a tried-and-true recipe! I think there was simply too much action going on in the gnocchi dough.
I still tried to make it look pretty, by garnishing it with torn salad greens, fresh blueberries, and fresh goat cheese:
Looks okay, I guess, but looks are deceiving.
The gnocchi was mushy and soggy. Was it inedible? No. Did it taste fine? Sort of. Was it good? No way.
The pesto sauce and tangy goat cheese saved the dish from being a complete failure. The sauce was tangy, slightly sweet, flavorful. I see a lot of potential in this.
I still ate it, but didn't really enjoy it. Boo hoo.
I had some uncooked gnocchi dough leftover, but I dumped them. No way did I want to eat them again.
I was going to send this to Doggybloggy from Chez What? for this week's BSI, but I don't want this to taint his perfect list of delicious potato recipes. Sorry, Doggybloggy!
On the bright side, I finally managed to make a blueberry recipe. I'd really wanted to submit a recipe for Reeni's BSI: blueberries, but didn't get the opportunity. So here's a (verrrrry) belated recipe for you, Reeni! And I have a container of this blueberry-walnut pesto left for lots more good eats in the future! (Stay tuned)
Question of the day: Have you ever tried doing too many things at once? And any gnocchi-experts out there who can pinpoint to me exactly what I did wrong (though I think I already know)?
P.S. I might give gnocchi-making another try…sometime. In the very distant future.
