The Cambridge Companion to Twentieth-Century British and Irish Women's Poetryby Jane Dowson
This Companion provides new ways of reading a wide range of influential women's poetry. Leading international scholars offer insights on a century of writers, drawing out the special function of poetry and the poets' use of language, whether it is concerned with the relationship between verbal and visual art, experimental poetics, war, landscape, history, cultural identity or 'confessional' lyrics. Collectively, the chapters cover well established and less familiar poets, from Edith Sitwell and Mina Loy, through Stevie Smith, Sylvia Plath and Elizabeth Jennings to Anne Stevenson, Eavan Boland and Jo Shapcott. They also include poets at the forefront of poetry trends, such as Liz Lochhead, Jackie Kay, Patience Agbabi, Caroline Bergvall, Medbh McGuckian and Carol Ann Duffy. With a chronology and guide to further reading, this book is aimed at students and poetry enthusiasts wanting to deepen their knowledge of some of the finest modern poets.
Carol Ann Duffyby Jane Dowson
This is the only monograph to consider the entire thirty-year career, publications, and influence of Britain's first female poet laureate. It outlines her impact on trends in contemporary poetry and establishes what we mean by 'Duffyesque' concerns and techniques. Discussions of her writing and activities prove how she has championed the relevance of poetry to all areas of contemporary culture and to the life of every human being. Individual chapters discuss the lyrics of 'love, loss, and longing'; the socially motivated poems about the 1980s; the female-centred volumes and poems; the relationship between poetry and public life; and poetry and childhood and written for children. The book should whet the appetite of readers who know little of Duffy's work to find out more, while providing students and scholars with an in-depth analysis of the poems in their contexts. It draws on a wide range of critical works and includes an extensive list of further reading.

Early in her career, Dr. Rose Delores Gibbs worked as a U.S. Peace Corps medical officer West Africa, starting in 1979. "I became very keen on preventive medicine," she says. "I would talk with patients about what was wrong with them, arm them with information about their medical problems and tell them how they could take responsibility to prevent some of those problems." She brought that philosophy to her internal medicine practice in Moncks Corner, where she has served residents from Berkeley County and beyond for 27 years and built a network of volunteers who put on health fairs and do outreach. "I like seeing positive results from my efforts with patients and helping patients to learn and understand what's going on with their bodies."

In what Girard FIRST Robotics Team co-adviser Judy Barber described as "one of the best performances of the season," the Robocats reached the division finals at the world championships held April 24 to 27 at the FIRST Robotics World Championships in St. Louis, Mo.
For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology (FIRST) teams were assigned a robot design that could throw a disc. The disc was required to go a predictable distance and height and into a goal to earn points. The robot also climbed a pyramid and held itself off the ground for an additional 10, 20 or 30 points based on how high the robot climbed.
Teams had six weeks to build a robot to complete the task.

The Girard RoboCats competed for the fourth time at the FIRST Robotics World Championship in St. Louis, reaching the division finals for the first time. Pictured after their win in Cincinnati, team members front row from left are: Bobbi Jo Tuttle, Sam Horn, Anthony Esposito, Kelsey Snyder, Megan Avey, Cori Pettrozino and Gabriella Forde. Back row from left are: Brandon Fiedler, Lane Tuttle, Selena DuPonty, Sierra Gamble, Jackie Kenriech, Vinny Bertolasio, Aaron Scott, Nick Walker, Maisey Claypoole, Blake Swift, Victoria Everett, Ember Hafley, Hanna Eldridge, Kaila DeChristofaro and Kada Williams.
The Girard RoboCats have been to the world championship four times since their inception and this time the team was able to reach the division finals.
"They did an outstanding job," Barber said. "We were very pleased with their performance."
The competition was made up of four divisions that included 100 teams from across the United States.
Girard placed among the top 24 in its division, which allowed the team to compete in the finals. Barber said the team was eliminated in the quarterfinals by a team that finished first runner-up to the division championship.
The RoboCats emerged victorious in Cincinnati in March, taking first place at the Queen City Regional robotics tournament. In addition to qualifying for the world championship, the team also won the TEAM Motorola Quality Award. The RoboCats also took home awards for their safety program, as well as the Innovation in Control Award, which is given for a creative robot design component, an autonomous mode.
The RoboCats team was established in 1999 and has competed each year at regional, state and national events.
Barber said the team will begin preparing for next year with fundraisers and recruiting events and will also take part at the Special Olympics to be held May 11 at Girard High School stadium.

Today's ready-mix and concrete producers have greater challenges than ever before. Success of their operations relies on operating efficiently. Read more...
Filter press - Connect to an existing reclamation system or pond system
The Filter Press in operation: the solids laden slurry is pumped under pressure into the press chambers through the piping at the stationary head of the filter press, via the feed connection. As each cake chamber fills with slurry, the liquid passes through the cloth medium, across the drain-field, through the drain ports and exits via gravity out of the corner discharge eyes. Shown below: Concrete Reclaimer with a Filter Press

Ehud ben‑Gera (Hebrew: אֵהוּד בֶּן־גֵּרָא, Standard Ehud ben‑Gera Tiberian ʾĒhûḏ ben‑Gērāʾ) is described in the biblical Book of Judges[1] as a judge who was sent by God to deliver the Israelites from Moabite domination.
Biblical narrative[edit]
(See Judges 3:12-30) - Ehud was sent to the Moabite King Eglon on the pretext of delivering the Israelites' annual tribute. He made a double-edged shortsword about eighteen inches long, useful for a stabbing thrust. Being left-handed, he could conceal the sword on his right thigh, where it was not expected. Once they met, Ehud told Eglon he had a secret message for him. Eglon dismissed his attendants and allowed Ehud to meet him in private. Ehud said, "I have a message from God for you", drew his sword, and stabbed the king in his abdomen. Eglon was eviscerated by the blow, which caused him to leak excrement;[2] he was so overweight that the sword disappeared into the wound and Ehud left it there. He locked the doors to the king's chamber and left.
Judges in the Bible
|Italics indicate individuals not explicitly described as judges
|Book of Joshua
|Book of Judges
|First Book of Samuel
Eglon's assistants returned when too much time had elapsed and found the doors locked. Assuming that he was relieving himself, they waited "to the point of embarrassment" before unlocking the door and finding their king dead.
Ehud escaped to the town of Seraiah in Ephraim. He sounded the shofar and rallied the Israelite tribes, who killed the Moabites, cutting off the fords of the Jordan River, and invaded Moab itself, killing about 10,000 Moabite soldiers.
After the death of Eglon there was peace in the land for 80 years.
Biblical criticism[edit]
Coogan argues that the story of Ehud was probably a folk tale of local origin that was edited by the Deuteronomistic historians.[3] The Deuteronomistic historians "incorporated a variety of previously existing sources into their narrative of life in early Israel"[3] and the story of Ehud is one such example of a "previously existing source",[3] that has been edited to include "the cyclical pattern" typical of the stories of the major judges.[4] This pattern consists of apostasy, hardship, crying out to the Lord, and rescue[5] and it is clearly present in the tale of Ehud: apostasy and hardship occur in Judges 3.12, "The Israelites again did what was evil in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord strengthened King Eglon of Moab against Israel." The "crying out to the Lord" and the subsequent rescue are evident in Judges 3.15: "but when the Israelites cried out to the Lord, the Lord raised up for them a deliverer, Ehud son of Gera." The rather lively and humorous tale is ended with the refrain of "and the land had rest 80 years," (Judges 3.30) an editorially constructed ending typical to Gideon and other "major" judge stories in the book of Judges.[4] He was the second judge chosen by God
Barry Webb sees Ehud as 'directed by the Lord, who used this most unlikely hero to bring deliverance to his undeserving but desperate people'.[6]
The etymology of Ehud's name is unknown. According to Amos Hakham, medieval rabbis favored one of two explanations, but neither of these are accepted by contemporary linguists.[7]
See also[edit]
- ^ "Judges 3:12-28 (King James Version)". BibleGateway.com.
- ^ The meaning of the Hebrew word פַּרְשְׁדֹנָה (parshÿdonah) which occurs only here in the OT, is uncertain. The word may be an architectural term, indicating the area into which Ehud moved as he left the king and began his escape. Some take the noun as "back," and understand "sword" (from the preceding clause) as the subject, and translate "the sword came out his back." Another theory is that the word refers to excrement coming out of the body. The King James Version uses the euphemism of "dirt". Young's Literal Translation more cryptically states that "it goeth out at the fundament". Earlier revisions of the New International Version, among others,[which?] attempt no translation.

|Archives and Libraries Section
The Archives and Libraries Section of the American Folklore Society was first established as the Archiving Section at the annual meeting of the Society in 1978 in Salt Lake City, Utah. In response to an interest in a focus on folklore in libraries as well as in archives, it became the Archives and Libraries Section in 1997.
The Section's mission is to promote the exchange of information on all types of archival methodology relating to folklore, folklife, and other ethnographic collections. In addition, the Section aims to share information and to help develop standards relevant to library collections and activities in folklore. The Section has maintained a particular interest in the developing technological systems that can advance the work of archivists and librarians working with folklore materials, and improve collections management in the field.
The Section adopted the original version of this statement of goals in 1994, and modified it in 2001 to include reference to library issues:
The Section awards two prizes on an every-other-year basis:
Brenda McCallum Prize (even years) for a work
that contributes to the goal of improving archival care and
to folklore collections, and the Polly Grimshaw Prize
(odd years) for the support of folklore or ethnomusicology projects with a
significant connection to libraries and/or archives.
The convener for the Section is Terri M. Jordan of Norman, Oklahoma. Dues are $10.

Good for you!
I LOVE bountiful baskets! We get one every other week and it is so fun figuring out what to do with it all.
Kind of proud of myself. Have been balking at bountiful baskets for several months now. The process kind of intimidated me, since I didn't understand how it works. Tonight I was beckoned by the promise of tropical fruit and vanilla bean pods and signed up for the organic basket. Excited now. I hope this leads to a reduced monthly grocery bill.
I get brownie points for doing my first primal basket of organic co-op produce, right?

Good for you!
I LOVE bountiful baskets! We get one every other week and it is so fun figuring out what to do with it all.
I am going to try to start basing our meals around it. Should be an adventure!

FOOD PORN BLOG! http://theprimaljunkfoodie.blogspot.com
I was surprised to learn Bountiful Baskets is available here in the outback. One of my neighbors was going on & on about all the lovely, wholesome baked goods that came with hers so I dismissed it as a bad deal. Are there veggie-only options?
My aunt suggested I check it out but I'm confused as to how it works even though I read it like five times. I don't think it has any coop places out here in Oregon though, unless I'm remembering wrong.
LJH, I think the baskets are supposed to be produce only? it might be a different sort of basket group thing that you have.
OK, I checked it out - there are several different 'packages' one can order and some include breads, etc., which is what my neighbor must have ordered. But even the all-produce one is 50% fruit, so I'll pass.
For those that have ordered the baskets, are there enough veggies for 5 dinners for a couple? I'm interested in this for my husband and I, but I need to determine if it will actually save us money.
So how does this thing work? I get the overall picture, but the details?
Does the 'co-op' buy produce nationally and distribute it to the pick up sites, or is each site run independently? The closest location is over 2 hours from me but we have enough like minded friends eating with us in East Texas now that we could probably support a group. Mrs. Freqz and I could probably manage to run the distribution side of things but not the sourcing/purchasing side.
I'd be interesting in knowing how you like it. And like freqz, I am wondering if it is locally sourced produce or nationwide. Enjoy!

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) announced on April 19, 2013 that it accepted Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from seven proposers in response to a Request for Qualifications for the I-4 Ultimate Project. The list of proposer teams may be found at the I-4 Ultimate Project website.
The project involves the reconstruction of over 21 miles of I-4 in Orange and Seminole Counties, including 19 major interchanges, 56 new bridges and 71 bridge replacements, and the addition of two managed toll lanes in each direction. The estimated cost of the project is approximately $2.1 billion.
The I-4 is often considered the backbone of surface transportation in Central Florida. It provides a crucial link between Tampa on the west coast and Daytona Beach on the east coast, as well as serving the Orlando Metro area, one of the world's most popular travel destinations. The I-4 Ultimate Project seeks to alleviate congestion by adding managed lanes and improving access to and from the interstate.
The project is being procured as a public-private partnership, through an anticipated 40-year design, build, finance, operate and maintain (DBFOM) concession agreement. The Concessionaire will receive availability payments throughout the operating period, and FDOT assumes the traffic revenue risk. This is only the fifth highway P3 in the United States to adopt an availability payment structure.
Next month, FDOT is expected to short-list at least three and as many four proposers, who will have the opportunity to submit their proposals in early 2014. The successful proposer is anticipated to be selected in the spring of 2014.

I've been following Frugal Girl for so long that her
campaign has nearly eliminated Food Waste from my life, butthis week…I simply wasn't paying attention.
One of the best perks of working at a bakery is FREE food.
I brought home a couple of cornbread muffins to have with some left-over chili.
I had some left over chili in the freezer, I pulled it out to thaw, but day after day I said to myself "I didn't feel like chili today"
When I finally did "feel" like it, the muffins were full of black moldy splotches.
So I had saltines with my chili and vowed to pay closer attention next time.

Tracking the Sun: An Historical Summary of the Installed Cost of Photovoltaics in the US from 1999 to 2010
Recorded on October 14, 2011 (60 minutes)
The cost of photovoltaics has been cited as a primary barrier to widespread solar adoption for some time. Fortunately, those costs have dropped significantly in recent years, making solar more widely accessible to consumers and more cost-competitive as a wholesale resource across the country. The latest edition of the annual "Tracking the Sun" report from the Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory illuminates PV's changing cost dynamics, tracking national trends in installed costs as well as differences by region, system size and installation type. Join report co-author Galen Barbose for this SEIA webinar as he reviews the latest findings.

It's because your cursor is actually showing! So, no need to warp anywhere.
New heuristic needed? Personally, I'd say no. Maybe add it to smacme?

Sir Elton John and David Furnish are
planning to marry.
The couple, together 20 years, are
raising two children and entered a UK civil partnership in 2005.
Appearing Tuesday on ABC's Jimmy
Kimmel Live, host Jimmy Kimmel jokingly congratulated John on
being gay.
"Thank you very much. It was hard,"
John replied. "And it still is."
"Are you going to take advantage of
the new laws and get married?" Kimmel asked.
"Yeah, we will do next May, when it
comes out. I mean if those laws are being made for people like us
who 30, 40 years ago, you know, it was very hard to even come out of
the closet. In England, we've had the civil partnership, which we
did in 2005. And that made a huge difference; a commitment to your
relationship. I didn't think it would, but it did. And it really
helped our relationship. And if the laws are going to help us again,
then as a famous gay couple we will do it. It's our duty to do it,
to make sure everyone knows that this is something that is a gift
from, you know, that we never dreamed we would get."
John added that he didn't want a
"flashy" wedding. (The video is embedded on this page. Visit

FOSTORIA - It's simple math. Eight is more than two. So when the seventh inning came around and Hopewell-Loudon led Sandusky St. Mary 10-8 in their Division IV district semifinal at Fostoria, the Chieftains felt they'd be in better shape with a few more runs on the board.
"We came into the dugout and we said 'We need some insurance,'" Hopewell-Loudon's Racquel Hossler said. "So we all had the mindset we have to score some more and thats what we did."
Six more to be exact.
Article Photos
Hossler's two-run single highlighted a six-run seventh inning for the Chieftains. Lauren Trumpler, Aubrey Affholder and Makayla Wilson also drove in runs as Hopewell-Loudon's two-run lead ballooned to eight. Kelsey Coppus shut the door on the Panthers in the bottom of the inning to seal a 16-8 win, and a spot in Friday's district final for the Chieftains.
"I was definitely breathing a lot easier," Hopewell-Loudon coach Sarah Haynes said. "I try and smile quite a bit, but that wasn't forced, so that was nice."
The seventh inning outburst was the capstone to a day-long hit parade for the Chieftains. The team pounded out 20 hits on the afternoon with the production spread throughout the lineup. Trumpler, Abby Park and Makayla Wilson all had four-hit days. Eight of the nine hitters in the Chieftain lineup drove in runs.
"We knew to stay focused," Trumpler said of the team's mindset coming into the day. "We knew what kind of pitcher she was so we were ready."
"Everyone did great today," Hossler added. "Even the bottom of the lineup was getting hits every time they were up. It wasn't just one person, it was a full team effort."
Trumpler and Hossler are members of a senior class that made it to the district semifinal for the first time. It led to a bit of anxiousness on the ride over, but Hossler the said the team knew to stay focused and not let their emotions get the best of them.
"We were all very anxious. The whole bus ride that's all we were talking about," Hossler said. "We just knew we had to keep our composure and do the little things right. That's what helps you win the game."
In a game where hitting dominated, the first big play came on the defensive side. In the bottom of the first, St. Mary had runners on first and third with one out.
Danielle Parish went to steal second and Hossler fired the ball from behind the plate. But it didn't go to the base, it went to shortstop Trumpler who fired it back to Hossler when Hannah Snow took off from third to home. Snow was tagged out and Parish tried to advance to third. Hossler fired the ball to third baseman Wilson to tag out Parish and complete the double play.
The next inning, the bats got going.
Hopewell-Loudon put up three runs in the second and three more in the third. St. Mary finally got on the board with two in the bottom half of the third, but the Chieftains quickly responded.
Trumpler led off the top of the fourth with a base hit and was driven home on a Hossler double. Affholder singled home Hossler. Later that inning Shelbi Sauber drove in Park with a double to give the Chieftains a seemingly comfortable 9-2 lead.
But St. Mary came to life in the bottom of the frame. The Panthers pounded out six hits and took advantage of a couple Chieftain defensive lapses to score six runs to cut the lead to 9-8.
"Obviously I'm proud of the way the girls came back and made it a fight," St's. Mary's coach Julie Simon said. "We made it a ballgame. Regardless of what the score is, it was a great game. Lot of hits. great offensive duel for sure.
"Hopewell-Loudon is from top to bottom just a great hitting team. They're well coached, they're patient at the plate, they hit the ball hard."
Still, the Chieftains kept their confidence and kept St. Mary off the scoreboard the rest of the game.
"We knew we were all right," Trumpler said. "We knew our defense would get us through the game and we knew we could hit the ball."
The defense tightened up and Hopewell-Loudon got one of the runs back on a Trumpler RBI double in the fifth.
"The hardest thing as a coach is really to just kind of back off and let them know that's OK," Haynes said. "As long as you know what the mistake is and you can fix it, then it's done. Because, it's not something that you have control over anymore; it's in the past.
"I talked to the girls a little bit about momentum and how a lot of times you put a lot of hype on momentum, and the fact that you can make your own momentum. So even when people might think they gained the momentum swing, you can make your own and they certainly did. They came back up to bat and they made their own momentum and corrected some of those mental mistakes."
The Chieftains will be back in Fostoria Friday at 5 p.m. for a district final against the winner of today's Lakota-Fremont St. Joe contest.
For a group that previously never made it out of sectionals, it's exciting play for a district title.
"Super exciting," Trumpler corrected. "I've never been to district finals; it's a big deal."

What are you most proud of? My Walking Foot sample:) I am pleased with how I feel more confident using it and trying lots of different patterns. Okay.... on my second attempt it is a bit easier but still finding it very difficult!
What advice would you give someone starting this project? What advice would I give??? It is me that needs the advice and help ;) This is my first attempt at using the Darning Foot and trying to fmq.... all I can say is.... you won't have to look too close to see how awful my control of the stitching is! When Wendy said to practice, practice, practice... I think for me it will take forever to master this! How have you all mastered this so quickly and so well?!?!
Hi Desna, is it much easier using the walking foot? The darning foot comes with the machine aye?? I m going to try the walking foot soon..all the best to you..show us more FMQ when u are getting much better..:)
oh i forgot to ask...do you have to transfer the design to the quilt first?? sorry if this sounds silly :(
Hey ZaZa, I think the walking foot is much easier as it is controlled and great for straight quilting as well as slight curved stitching. Wendy's class is brilliant for fmq and if you take her class she will show you how to count stitches in the ditch for evenly spaced columns between stitch lines (hope that makes sense) In these examples above I have not used stencils (haha that probably is obvious;) I just went for it. Hope this helps:)
You do not have to transfer the design to the quilt top... what we are working on is unmarked designs... so we are the designer... it takes a lot of practice for sure!
good to keep playing with those sample pieces... keep working on listening to the hum of the machine... watching what your hands are doing with the foot speed... our goal is to get a consistent stitch length... but sure takes a lot of practice pieces.... charge ahead... and thanks for sharing.
I'm going to aim for my practice block to look as good as yours!
Good Ideas do Well.

Instructor Bio
Angela was born and raised in Hackney, in London's East End. She has a background in music and dance, which was encouraged by her musical family. At the age of 6, with her guitar she led her church choir. She continued to similar work over the following 20 years. Her talents as a Musical Director were so widely recognized within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Westminster that she was invited to lead major celebrations throughout Greater London and some regional towns. At the age of 11, she won a scholarship for The Centre for Young Musicians, Pimlico, where she majored in Composition.
Angela is a self-taught dancer. Hailing from the first generation of lockers, poppers and breakdancers, her love of jazz music led her to search for the roots of street-dance which is vernacular jazz*. Beginning with Ceroc, she discovered Lindy Hop in 1991 at the famous London Club 'Jitterbugs'. Ryan Francois, Julie Oram, Sing Lim, and Ron Leslie were her teachers.
Angela is passionate about social dancing. An explosive element of London's (and the World's) swing dance scene, she is is renowned for her energy and improvisational skills on the dance floor. Influenced by the style of the "Old School" she incarnates today and is keen to retain the true spirit of lindy-hop: taking pleasure with a dash of humour.
*jazz dance which has its roots in dances from early African cultures ie. Tap, Charleston, Lindy hop, Shag, Balboa, Salsa, Hip Hop etc.

Unit testing GAE apps in Python
For my first iOS app (I'll provide link when it's published on App Store) I wanted to make some decent backend. I chose Google App Engine for several like scalability, very good latency worldwide, hosting included, etc.
Since I wanted to do everything right from the very beginning I wanted to properly unit test every feature.
Test environments
This made me thinking because I wanted to run all unit tests in several different environments:
Locally in terminal.
It's very easy to run just a single test case and it doesn't have to be dependent on GAE modules.
Locally on GAE test server.
This should give the same results like running tests in terminal but this time in GAE sandbox. I think it's quiet unlikely that some tests would pass in terminal but fail on GAE server. This gives me more confidence that my code is not dependent on some local modules that are not provided by GAE.
Testing GAE apps in sandbox is very important because some methods (like
os.chdirfor example) are disabled and throw an exception.
On real GAE production server hosted on Google infrastructure.
After this I'm sure that my local modules work as well as those provided by GAE. I think if you're locally using up-to-date GAE server all test should pass without any problem.
For me was very important to realize that although my app uses some Python modules like lxml that is provided also by GAE environment I still have to install it locally because it's not part of GAE test server. Read more about standard third-party libraries on GAE.
Particularly, you can specify which version of lxml you want to use but you never know. I might upgrade my local lxml unintentionally and it might break some functionality. That's why I want to be able to run tests also in production GAE server hosted on Google.
Running unit tests in terminal is simple and it's well described in many other tutorials all over the Internet. Running tests for an app that uses some GAE modules isn't that simple because you have to load some GAE modules and I think it's easier to leave this stuff on somebody else.
I chose nosetests with GAE extension because it's easy to use in terminal and you can run all tests (using auto discovery) or just particular test that you want. You can install both with
pip or
Finally this is how I use it:
nosetests -s -v --with-gae --without-sandbox
nosetests --help to see what each parameter does but the most important is
--with-gae and
The first one loads GAE modules so you can import them in your app (for example
The second one disables GAE sandbox which is necessary only if you want to import some third-party libraries including those provided by GAE! For example my app uses lxml, thats why I have to run tests with
--without-sandbox. Of course, you don't have to use this option if you have no dependencies.
Running unit tests on GAE server
In order to run unit tests on local/production GAE server I had to make some URL handler that actually runs all tests. At first I thought I can do this easily with
nosetests which has methods for running tests programmatically but after a couple of hours I gave it up because it uses system methods like
chdir which is disabled on GAE server and I think I wouldn't be able to bypass it with our modifying
nosetests source code.
So, at the end I sticked to normal
unittest module with my own very simple autodiscovery method.
Just a note here, all my tests inherit
unittest.TestCase, each files contains just one test case and both files and class names begin with the word
Test (for example in
TestUtils.py I have just one test case
class TestUtils.
By the way, I'm using webapp2 framework but I guess it would be easy for you to modify it for another framework
Well, last thing is to assign it to a URL:
routes = [ ('/unit-tests', RunUnitTests.RunUnitTests) ] app = webapp2.WSGIApplication(routes, debug=True)
This prints results from each test case with total number of tests.
Well that's it. I hope there's some easier and maybe more straight forward method but for now this is all I have and I think all three steps are necessary to automate the testing process.
If you're using some different approach let me know in the comments bellow. I would love the hear it.

Citing concerns which Jennifer Brockman, director of the planning and zoning department, brought forth, the commission will submit an official document, signed by commission president Paul Taylor.
The first thing Jefferson County Commissioner Walt Pellish brought up was the pace at which the project is moving - a pace which caused the development of a subdivision to be built in the path of the proposed new road.

Jennifer Brockman, director of the Jefferson County planning and zoning department, discusses her concerns with the planning commission Tuesday over the expansion of U.S. 340 from Charles Town to the Virginia line.
"Because there was no record of decision (from the WVDOH) and no right-of-way acquisition occurring, there was no ability for a local planning commission to deny someone the right to make a request that was within the bound of their regulations," Brockman said. "The development was approved, and that development is known as Ryans Glen."
Pellish said the county commission has identified the U.S. 340 four-lane expansion to be a priority item, and while he called it critical to the development of the county, particularly from a business viewpoint, he also expressed doubt in the WVDOH providing feedback from comments it receives.
"I don't know there's much we can do beyond (sending a letter). I don't know what feedback we are going to get from the (WV)DOH once they close the comment period," Pellish said. "There's no clarity coming out of there."
The items to be listed on the letter from the county's planning commission include expediting the record of decision process, limiting the number of access points to allow for free-flowing traffic, the possibility of a bike path and the planting of additional trees for canopy coverage.
"The trip generation numbers they are using are also fairly low," Brockman said. "I think it would be fair for this body to make a comment that a four-lane road is likely to generate interest in rezonings and changes in land use and they should be prepared to design this for a greater traffic flow."
According to Brockman, the U.S. 340 is a federal route, and federal funding is involved even though it comes through the state. In order for this to take place, the WVDOH has to conduct a full environmental impact statement, including a look at all the historic preservation areas, historic properties and environmental impacts anytime federal land is involved.
Once that happens, a preferred alignment is drawn and the WVDOH moves toward a record of decision, although this is not decided until the funding for acquiring the right-of-way is in place.
"I have a feeling (the WVDOH) takes everyone's comments and they do what they want, but if you don't make the comments now, I'm not sure you can make them later," Brockman said.
The comment period for the West Virginia Department of Highway's U.S. 340 Improvement Study is currently open until July 3.

Retailers Woo Savings-Minded Shoppers
Posted on December 29, 2010 by
By Barbara Thau
The recession might be officially over, but consumer spending has not returned to its heady 2006 levels.
In turn, home furnishings retailers are settling in to the new normal by playing up the lower-price point fare in their product assortments, crafting value-oriented marketing messages and cooking up new promotional strategies to keep in step with today's savings-minded shoppers.
It comes as little surprise. Unemployment remains stubbornly high, hovering around 10 percent, and "consumer confidence indices are starting to weaken," said Dana Telsey, chief executive officer of Telsey Advisory Group, in a recent report. "While the worst is behind us, we believe the recovery will be slow and the consumer will continue to be challenged by a weak unemployment picture," she said.
Although the retail sector has rebounded somewhat from the dark days of 2008 during the country's financial meltdown, sales-per-square foot--a telling metric--across numerous retail chains have not returned to pre-recession levels, said Amy Noblin, a senior analyst with Weeden & Co.
As a result, "a big segment of the population is not returning to their pre-recession spending habits," she said.
Indeed, 40 percent of the 56 retail chief financial officers surveyed by PwC, formerly known as PricewaterhouseCoopers, on their outlook for the new year, said their customers are still worried about their economic situation and will continue to hold back and/or defer retail purchases in 2011.
Still, the tepid economy has "played to Ikea's strengths: good design and function at affordable prices," said Joseph Roth, public affairs director for the Swedish home furnishings giant.
Now the retailer is accentuating that more than ever by emphasizing its lower priced merchandise and sharpening the value message in its marketing, he said.
"The customer is even more focused than they used to be on affordability," Roth said. "All the more reason to make the effort to highlight the affordability and value of Ikea's offerings."
Ikea customers have been adjusting their shopping habits from how they purchased in better times to this tenuous economy, Roth said.
Amid a still weak housing market, "We're recognizing that there are not as many home purchases."
To that end, "the folks that might have bought a new home are [instead] redecorating with furniture."
Likewise, shoppers in a strong economy who might want to replace furniture, "but in this uncertain economy, they are hesitant to do so--so you'll see them buying curtains and throw pillows," Roth said.
With these lower-priced accessories, "you can change up your look without redoing the entire home."
The retailer is also calling out lower price point fare in its Ikea catalog and at the store level.
In Ikea's Marketplace department, for example, the retailer is broadcasting messages in signage such as, "change the look of your home with a duvet."
"We're showing shoppers how they can do something affordable and still achieve that desired result," Roth said.
The retailer is also highlighting more combination units, such as its BESTA furniture storage system, than ever before.
For example, "We'll show an entertainment unit--even in this economy, lots of people still have big screen TVs--and say, 'this whole combination is available for a certain price point.' Shoppers can see that just by adding a little more to the purchase, they can get the whole entertainment unit for a good price, rather than just the TV bench," he said.
The Container Store also recognizes that in this post-recession period, shoppers have a heightened focus on value, said Olescia Hanson, a spokesperson for the storage and organization emporium.
The retailer's elfa storage and shelving product line, which represents "great value," remained a strong seller even through the recession and continues today to be The Container Store's top-selling product line, Hanson said. The retailer launched its big annual elfa sale on Dec. 29, which will continue through Feb. 15.
The elfa system is the foundation of any organized space, from the kitchen to the family room to the garage, Hanson said.
The retailer also offers shoppers free elfa design services.
In a bid to sweeten the deal for its shoppers, The Container Store plans to launch a loyalty program this year, said Catherine Davis, direct marketing director. "There are lots of opportunities to ensure [customers] feel appreciated and rewarded," she said.
Meanwhile, Amazon.com expects shoppers' demand for free shipping during the holiday season will continue this year.
"We expect those trends to continue in 2011," said Laura Orvidas, director of Amazon.com's home and garden store.
To that end, the e-tailer offers free Super Saver Shipping and Amazon Prime for free two-day shipping on millions of products, including big ticket home goods--from Winsome adjustable bar stools to Strathwood patio furniture to Southshore platform beds, she said.
As more and more consumers are using their smart phones to compare prices on products across the retail sector, merchants need to be that much sharper on pricing.
Amazon, whose model was built on offering the lowest prices possible across numerous product categories, says bring it on.
"We thrive in this environment," she said.
Indeed, Amazon, like some other merchants these days, offers its own price comparison-shopping application.
"Customers should take advantage of Amazon's mobile shopping apps to make sure they are getting the best price," Orvidas said.

Romina Power, daughter to Hollywood actors Tyrone Power and Linda Christian, and Al Bano Carrisi an Italian singer from a small village in the south of Italy both fell passionately in love way back in the late 60's while making a film together. Despite coming from completely different backgrounds they eventually got married in 1970 and went on to become a very popular singing duo known as Al Bano and Romina recording top hits in Europe such as Sharazan and Felicita and taking part in the Eurovision Song Contest.
Al Bano recalls that during a film set on the Island of Capri they escaped from the whole crew to a small grotto where no one could see them and there they had their own private wedding before the official one. They had bought two rings which had 'forever' engraved on them and as gypsies do, they both cut their hands and interchanged a droplet of blood between eachother with only the seagulls outside the grotto as their witness.
They had four beautiful children between them called, in order of age, Ylenia Maria, Yari Marco, Cristel Chiara and Romina Iolanda, and the whole family were, it seemed, to live happily ever after in their house in Cellino San Marco, the home town of Al Bano, in the south of Italy. Everyone thought they were the most idyllic couple - Romina, such a beautiful young woman with her long chestnut hair and dark brown eyes and Al Bano, with his almost operatic voice who was a sex symbol to so many Italian women.
But unfortunately, as is often said about marriages between different cultures, they can be complicated, and this fact in the end played a large part in the break-up of this particular marriage along with another tragedy which no one could have foreseen.
One has to remember that with the famous parents that Romina had, she spent most of her childhood surrounded by the Hollywood jet set and was used to all the customs and behaviours that were associated with such a life. Although her father, Tyrone Power died at the young age of 44 of a massive heart attack while filming Solomon and Sheba in Madrid, her mother, Linda Christian continued to live an eccentric life which she also exposed to her two daughters Romina and Taryn. They got used to seeing their mother drink and unfortunately also to see her take drugs, albeit the milder types, which in the end they partook of as well.
Al Bano, on the other hand, had spent most of his life in a small village where life was very humble and had no such luxuries as were found in Hollywood and had worked hard to get where he was as a singer. He lived with his parents and brother and their outlook on life was that alcohol and drugs were evil.
That these two characters could have lasted together for 30 years was in itself quite an achievement and gives merit to the love that they had for eachother, but during the last ten years of their marriage Romina no longer found living in a small village so quaint and when in 1994 her daughter Ylenia went missing in New Orleans it was to be the final knife that broke their marriage.
Al Bano never understood, liked or got used to seeing how Romina needed to smoke 'grass' and this over the years began to cause a continuous friction between them. Romina meanwhile also began to tire of his controlling ways and began to feel trapped in a world which she no longer considered to be her own. It is said that although Romina stopped loving Al Bano, his love for her never did die and he has admitted recently that she was and always will be the woman of his life. He confessed that in all the years of their marriage he had always been faithful to her because with such an exceptional woman by his side who he was madly in love with, how could he ever have had eyes for anyone else.
In 1994 their daughter Ylenia, who was 24, had gone to New Orleans to find material for a book that she was writing and had began to hang out with street musicians and other dubious characters. It is thought, but not confirmed, that she got caught up in the world of drugs as well but possibly to a higher degree than her mother and that when, as people claim, she was seen throwing herself into the Mississippi River, she was most probably under the influence.
Romina and Al Bano flew to New Orleans, spoke with the police and as many other witnesses as they could but the body of Ylenia was never found and to this day, 17 years later, no one can truly say whether she is dead or alive as no body was ever recovered.
Al Bano took it badly, as any normal father would, but he decided to try and put it behind him and try to continue his life. But on the other hand Romina refused to accept that her daughter had died and to this day is still searching with the hope that one day she will find her.

These two different approaches in dealing with the disappearance of their daughter is what finally drove them completely apart and the final divorce was to come just a few years later. A tragic ending to what was such a beautiful beginning!

Cumberland County, N.J., authorities were initially baffled by residents' reports of dead blackbirds in yards near Ingraldi's Farm in Millville on Tuesday.
The town's firefighters, joined by members of a Vineland hazardous materials unit and county Health Department representatives, headed to the 400 block of Peach Street to investigate shortly after noon.
In Trenton, the Department of Environmental Protection dispatched an official to solve the mystery. Cumberland County's Office of Emergency Management also was called.
Was it a gas leak? Neighbors worried they might be affected.

The second edition of this welcome textbook on milk and milk products continues the reputation earned by the earlier edition. The book is primarily designed as a textbook for students in agricultural colleges; it therefore contains much material that could well be omitted for medical readers. Despite this duplication, which is necessary to preserve the functions for which the book is intended, the volume affords a mass of information on milk and dairy products that will interest the physician and the general reader. There are chapters touching on common dairy processes, the manufacture of butter, cheese and ice cream, and the methods of preparing evaporated milk and dry milk. There is no mention in the book of curd tension and methods of determining this property, nor is there any discussion of milk that has been treated to modify the curd.

Women's Dresses
Product list
Our Customers Love
Seventies style dress
Bought this dress on a whim when popping into asda for some groceries. Am pleasantly surprised by what a nice style it is. Does come up a little large. I am a 12/14 with big hips and the size 12 was a good fit. Sleeves are slightly tight on me at the top of the arms but this is probably just me as seems to be a common problem that I have. Has a stretchy under skirt thing underneath it as the fabric is sheer. Wore on Saturday night with a black sheepskin waistcoat and platforms but feel it could equally be dressed down with flat boots and a parka. All in all a good purchase and a fraction of the price than you would pay in many high street stores.
Good basic tunic for Autumn/Winter
Picked this up off a display by the door in my local asda along with the grey one. Tried two sizes as between a 12 and 14. Not much difference really so kept the 14 as can layer long sleeve tops with it when the weather gets colder. Nice warm fabric and very comfortable to wear. Can wear with or without a top underneath and with tights or leggings depending on the weather. A good purchase for the price as feel I will get lots of wear out of it due to how versatile it is.
Good layering dress
Am very happy with this dress. Purchased in two colours and have found them very versatile as can layer over a long sleeve top or wear by itself and can wear with tights or leggings depending on the weather. Feel I will wear this a lot over the coming Autumn and winter months. Am wearing as I write this review and feel lovely and warm as can snuggle into the nice, soft cowl neck.

I've been blogging for almost 5 years now. Yes, I'm slightly embarrassed to say that. Writers/Bloggers always talk about how much they have grown and how they've learned to adapt to the experiences they have gone through. However, based on myself pretty much figuring out where to put a comma and Google some $5 words, my hot takes are relatively the same for the most part.
Nothing has changed with my fandom nor the constant reaction to the reaction you see on Twitter. Fans are impulsive. Teams suck and teams are good. Folks are always going to overrate and underrate. Lamestreamers are always going to troll. No matter how many hours ESPN dedicates to sports or Twitter expands, sports always tend repeat itself for the most part.
However, if there's one thing I can say I've done a 180 on and learned from when I first started blogging, it's my reaction to fans trying to find solace in a losing team.
For most of my life, I could never understand how a fan could find goodness in a team game when the team fricken sucked ass. Maybe I was spoiled by the Bills of the 90s, but it was wins/losses to me. I never really had a favorite Bill growing up because the winning is what was my favorite moment.
It's a results business, right? However, I was wrong. You can find the goodness in cheering for your teams even when the shit hits the fan over and over and over again..
The player who taught me that was Stevie Johnson.
I loved Stevie Johnson. I loved how he did everything in his power to make us laugh when the product sucked. I was thrilled that he wanted to entertain the masses. He taught me that while wins/losses mean a lot, you can still can have fun.
Maybe he tried too hard in entertaining fans, but you know what? What the hell else did we have? The Bills were awful and it surely wasn't his fault. When he walked in, it was like Oz coming to Kansas except he turned Kansas into the Land of Oz. It was like the reverse Dorothy.
He became that guy that if you walked into a random bar in Las Vegas and said "Buffalo Bills", by the time the bartender went through the 90s Bills and losing four Super Bowls, Stevie Johnson would be the first guy to come up that we were actually watching in 2013. Stevie had the "It" factor for me.
I'll never forget when he did the "Why so serious?" T-shirt celebration and for that one week, he was like a celebrity on ESPN and Jim Rome. Then things crashed down after his drop against Steelers and you know what his reaction to it did for me?
It humanized him.
I'll never forget how he was in tears at his presser and God knows if any fan were in his place, we'd be doing the same thing. He was one of us. Period. That's why I always got pissed off when dumb lamestreamers tried trolling him because they just didn't get him. They aren't fans who understand how our minds work because they've made that silly oath in a tree house about not giving a shit about our teams. We stuck with him because while he wasn't perfect, he made us forget that there's more than just wins/losses.
As far as the trade goes, I guess I get why they decided to make this deal. They probably felt they had younger, cheaper kids that could do his job. I wouldn't have done it, but I understand A LOT of my angst happens to do with my affection for him. Trust me, I wasn't kicking and screaming when Lee Evans got traded and both their careers have very eerie similar paths with an incumbent pushing them out and their stats not measuring for what you want with a #1 WR.
However, there will be 100s of other boring Lee Evans to enter our lives, but I can pretty much take it to the grave that there won't be another Stevie Johnson.
While I wish we all could have won together on the field, I'll always cherish the times you made me forget about the field and the bad football we had to watch. While most fans take their football lives too seriously (Guilty), you taught us why we should't be so serious.
Good luck in SF and thanks for letting me forget that we hadn't made the playoffs in 14 years on a few occasions on Sundays
