We too, we too, descending once again
The hills of our own land, we too have heard
Far off --- Ah, que ce cor a longue haleine ---
The horn of Roland in the passages of Spain,
The first, the second blast, the failing third,
And with the third turned back and climbed once more
The steep road southward, and heard faint the sound
Of swords, of horses, the disastrous war,
And crossed the dark defile at last, and found
At Roncevaux upon the darkening plain
The dead against the dead and on the silent ground
The silent slain---

Interview With Onetreeink
Q:Where did the idea for this logo come from?
I love sushi and the came to me.
Q:What application did you use to design this logo? E.g., Illustrator.
Illustrator 100%.
Q:What was your design process for this logo? I.e., Did you start out with pen and paper then move to the computer?
NO, directly to the computer. Play around until i get the shape that I'm looking for.
Q:How did you choose the color scheme for the logo?
Well we see a lot of bright colors, especially red and orange on Asian cultures. In this case Japan.
More Designs From Onetreeink
pnplyJanuary 9, 2010
This is pretty good. It's not the kind of logo that you build an international brand around, but it's distinctive and that visual pun will stick in people's brains. For a local restaurant aiming for a young crowd, it'd be perfect.

Although Gloria Anzaldúa often described herself primarily as a fiction writer and poet, her published work crosses multiple genres, ranging from poetry, short stories, and children's books to autobiographical narratives, interviews, theoretical essays, and multi-genre edited and co-edited collections. She is most highly regarded for her autobiographically-inflected, mixed-genre prose in pieces like Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza and "La Prieta". A transdisciplinary author, Anzaldúa's work draws from, builds on, and transforms a variety of academic disciplines and intellectual fields, including American Studies, Chicana/o studies, composition studies, cultural studies, English, ethnic studies, and women's …

It may have been her first competition, but Jenny Campano, a powerlifter from Berkeley Heights, handled the pressure (and her rivals) like a seasoned pro.
Working in the female 123 lb. weight division, Campano not only took home the trophy as the overall winner in her weight class but captured first place finishes in the three individual lifts (bench press, squat, and deadlift) that made up the competition, entitling her to the trophy for overall best female lifter.
The powerlifting contest, sponsored by the World Association of Iron Athletes, Blackwood, was held on March 23, 2013, in Runnemede.
Weighing in at 120 lbs., Campano also set meet records in all three lifts, including a deadlift of 265 lbs., an amazing 145 lbs. over her bodyweight.
Since it was my first competition, I didn't know what quite to expect, so I was a little nervous," said Campano. "But I also knew I was well trained and that gave me a lot of confidence."
Campano works out of the fitness center at the Berkeley Heights YMCA under the guidance of her personal trainer, Nicholas Matthes, also of Berkeley Heights.

Ride2Raise 2014-15 Rider Handbook
This is some basic information that we share with all our riders. Please feel free to ring or email us if you can't find the answers here.
2-3 weeks before your event you'll receive a full Ride Schedule including details of where and when your ride starts and finishes. We'd recommend being at the start as early as possible to allow for loading of the support vehicle, checking bikes, taking photos, warming up, saying tearful goodbyes to loved ones etc. If you're struggling to be there on time make sure you ring and let us know.
Where accommodation on the final day is included, there will usually be a quiet dinner in the evening in a local hotel and any riders and their family and friends are welcome to join us. We would need to know about numbers in advance and guests will need to meet their own costs.
The Routes:
The routes vary in length and difficulty. We use four grades – Easy to Moderate, Moderate, Moderate to Tough and Tough. There are more details on the routes, route highlights and night stops on the website.
We provide excellent hotels and usually single or twin room accommodation. However, sole occupancy can be guaranteed by payment of a supplement. Contact us for more details.
Clothing and kit:
Each rider will need to bring all cycling clothing they need for the trip (although usually the charity will provide bespoke branded jerseys for each rider). The wearing of helmets will be required at all times.
There are very good reasons why pro cyclists use the kit that they do ie so they can travel quickly and comfortably over long distances and, of course, that's exactly what we want to do as riders, especially on these challenges. And every piece of kit has a practical purpose. It also doesn't have to be expensive. Yes there are pricey manufacturers out there but there are also decent brands at different price-points to match any budget.
Here are some ideas on what clothing and kit you'll need….
Baselayers - these come in short sleeve and long sleeve versions. They wick the sweat away from your body, which is crucial in keeping you dry on a long ride in any temperature. April, May, Sept and October rides might require warmer, long sleeve layers.
Shorts - Good quality, padded shorts are vital. We're not fans of wearing two pairs as this can cause additional friction, as does wearing anything under or over the shorts. We recommend buying at least one pair of the best shorts you can and then hand washing them each evening if necessary. The use of chamois cream is also a must, either applied directly to the skin or to the pad in the shorts. A knicker is another option (longer lycra shorts that go below the knee) and these are especially good for keeping fragile knees warm on morning rides.
Jerseys – We'd recommend any jerseys come with at least three pockets, which are useful for carrying anything from waterproofs to energy bars, to inner tubes, co2 cannisters and phones.
Socks - Any short socks will do, although specific cycling socks are designed to be breathable and lightweight. The cycling tarts among you will know that the wearing of black socks with white shoes is very much frowned on!
Arm and knee warmers - these can be useful when starting out early on a long ride as they can be removed and stored in jersey pockets when you - and the day - has warmed up.
Shoes - Not much to say here although it's crucial that the cleats are positioned correctly when you are fitted for your bike, while shims and orthotics can help if, for example, your arch collapses in during the pedal stroke or you have a leg length difference.
Waterproofs - Another crucial bit of kit is a lightweight, breathable waterproof. We carry waterproof gilets in the Summer as keeping the torso dry is the priority.
Food - You'll need to eat as you ride – and we'd recommend grabbing a banana and a roll from breakfast each morning and carrying them in your jersey. We also carry energy gels and high-calorie bars. "Bonking/Blowing Up" on a trip like this, or any ride, isn't much fun and everyone should be prepared. A recovery drink/bar after each ride is also recommended.
9Bar are one of our sponsors and supply us with a stock of their energy bars which are ideal to eat on route. And we can usually supply recovery shakes For Goodness Shakes after each day.
Here's a more detailed nutrition plan for endurance rides exclusively put together for us by our friends at fitnaturally - Nutritional Plan.
Drinks - You'll need two bottle cages unless you'll be carrying a bottle in your jersey. 750mm bottle are best. We usually just take water but sometimes will add a hydration tab from Nectar. You can fill up bottles from our support vechiles during the day.
Creams and Potions – Even if you don't suffer from any aches and pain, we'd recommend using these on a trip like this. Deep heat or similar will help you ease back into your riding each morning and minimise the risk of a strain or pull. And a recovery cream, like Nature's Kiss, will help after the ride, along with stretching and leg elevation. High factor suncream is also vital and recommended even on our April and October rides.
Bikes - A good quality racing/road bike will be necessary for most of our challenges but a decent hybrid would be acceptable for the shorter rides. We'd be happy to advise if you're looking to buy a new bike before your challenge.
Bike fit – In our opinion it really is crucial to get a proper fit on your bike as the smallest irregularity or bad positioning will be amplified across a long ride.
Bike service - Again, we think everyone should give their bike a full service before the start. Our rides are a long way and it would be crazy to have your bike working at less than 100% or, worse, failing you mid-ride. At the very least get it some new tyres, pads and a cassette and chain plus give it a good clean!
Pumps, CO2 etc - Obviously you'll each need to bring the relevant kit for your bike. We use CO2 but have gadgets that include both a CO2 inflator and a traditional hand pump. You'll also need to bring a couple of spare tubes and tyres levers.
Multi-tool - A vital item to carry with you on a long ride. We use Lezyne multi-tools but there are loads on the market. Carry it in your saddle- bag.
Sunglasses - Obviously good in the sunshine (!) but also great at keeping grit, spray and dust out of eyes.
Spares - To be safe we'd recommend that everyone brings a spare chain (that fits their bike) plus brake pads and a tyre.
Leg shaving/waxing - It's an amusing topic but there are also clear practical benefits of doing it. 1 The leg is easier to massage, 2 the leg is easier to treat for cuts, grazes 3 there's less friction if/when you fall off ie hair on ground will pull the skin out. It's also true that hairy legs and lycra shorts just don't look right! Anyway, it's obviously not compulsory but we thought we'd address it all the same....
Space will be tight so each rider is limited to one small case. Think airline hand luggage limits.
We will cover the cost of all accommodation, meals and transport on the trip (sometimes this includes the night before a ride but not always). The only exclusions would be for evening drinks (soft or alcoholic), room service and any other food or services you require outside meal times. You will need to arrange your own transport to the start and after the finish.
What kit we'll be carrying:
We will carry some spares – wheels with tyres, lubricants, cleaning kit plus a full tool kit, bike stands and stand pumps. But you will need to bring any other kit you feel is important and it must be able to fit in your luggage. You will be charged at cost for any spares we have to supply (other than tubes).
With 8-10 riders the chances of getting a puncture are obviously increased so it's important that everyone has decent touring puncture resistant tyres. We can thoroughly recommend Conti 4-Seasons or GP4000s. However, punctures can't be helped and we'll all need to muck in to change a tube so we can get back on the road asap.
Mechanical work:
There'll be at least one experienced mechanic on each ride so we should be able to handle most eventualities.
First Aid:
There will be at least two people trained in First Aid on each ride, and we will carry a basic first aid kit by bike with a more advanced kit in the support vehicle.
See our notes below on riding as a group. The event is insured but we'd recommend anyone who isn't already a member also joining British Cycling as the individual cover is excellent.
Lunch will be pack lunches provided by the hotels on route or pub lunches. We will try to make the stop as short as possible (not more than 30 mins).
On the road:
We feel strongly about riding each challenge as a team, sticking together at all times and starting and finishing each leg together. The only place where this is difficult will be on climbs as everyone has their natural rhythm and it's not wise to upset that rhythm by asking people to go slower or faster than they're comfortable with. If you get to the top first, just wait for everyone to re-group before setting off again.
Where we have enough riders for more than one group, we will split participants based on speed/ability. This usually makes for smoother, safer progress with riders happier being with others of a similar ability. You'll have the opportunity to move between groups depending on how you get on.
Riding as a group is an art in itself and for longer challenges there will usually be one Training Ride before the event so that we can practice. Taking 10 min turns on the front makes sense but, of course, we'll also have to make allowances for those who are struggling with injuries or tiredness (we'll usually have a spread of ages, abilities and fitness to factor in too). There's no shame in having an hour on the back if you've blown up or are having a tough day.
Riding two abreast is perfectly acceptable unless the road is very narrow and riding as close to the wheel in front will help you be as economical as possible, conserving energy for your turn on the front. Watch the hips of the rider in front not the wheel as this better indicates any change in direction. Don't overlap or cross wheels as this can be very dangerous if the rider in front moves across suddenly. And never ride three abreast.
Riders at the front will need to point out any potholes or road "furniture" – and riders at the back any cars. Use hand signals as shouts can't always be heard. Pass this information through the group. When you're going to stand up announce this with "standing up" to the rider behind or you risk touching wheels. Never brake without signaling or shouting a warning. Keep regular and sensible spacing on descents. Riding predictably and smoothly is the way to go.
Racing or sprinting is not allowed at any time, regardless of road and weather conditions.
There's so much training information online and in specialist cycling magazines that we won't go into too much detail here. It is important to stress though that some sort of training schedule, with a gradual build up in speed and mileage, is vital for anyone taking part in a Ride2Raise event.
Completing at least one ride of a mileage similar to the daily distances of your event will also help your body become accustomed to being on a bike for that sort of time.We will hold a Training Ride in Dorking, Surrey for longer challenges (4-6 days). This will take place around 6-8 weeks before the event and is a great opportunity to assess fitness and see where extra work might be necessary. It's also a good chance to meet fellow riders and your Ride Managers and to practise riding safely and efficiently as a group.
You will need to demonstrate that you are capable of completing the event you've entered. For guidance, on our longer/tougher challenges you will need to be able to ride for a considerable distance at an average speed of 14-15mph. For our other, shorter events an average speed of 13-14mph will be acceptable. We reserve the right to offer you a place on an alternative event if necessary.
Terms and Conditions, Rules & Regulations, Waiver and Declaration
By entering a Ride2Raise event or training ride you agree to abide by our published Terms and Conditions and Rules & Regulations. You will also be agreeing to our published Waiver and Declaration. Please see the Terms & Conditions page of this website for more information.
Follow the Rides on Twitter
There will be regular updates on Twitter for all our rides so please encourage friends and family to follow us - and you - at www.twitter.com/ride2raise
Who's who?
There will be experienced Ride Managers on each ride plus a support vehicle team. Our policy is to have at least one member of staff for every 3-4 riders – maximising the attention and service we can offer you. The Ride Managers are there to help the ride run safely and smoothly and to help you enjoy the challenge as much as possible. Their decisions on all matters are final. Meet Our Team.

Is your brand doing what it says it will do? No matter what is happening in the world around it, does your brand have a response plan in place? Is it listening? Is it always doing the best it can? Spring has sprung. We begin to grow plants and gardens. Perhaps your brand could benefit from a little personal growth.
The Four Agreements, a book by Don Miguel Ruiz, is his most famous and influential work. It was published in 1997 and has sold around 4 million copies.It was featured on Oprah, in "O, The Oprah Magazine", and Ruiz was recently on the OWN network.
These agreements apply to brands. These agreements are simple. We LOVE simple.
1. Be impeccable with your word.
In order to be impeccable with our brand's word, we need to know the kinds of things our brand would say. To start, we author the creative brief:
We paint the big picture: the context and world in which our brand is living. We understand what makes our target tick. We uncover their emotional trigger, which tells us the motivation. We identify the promise, the one thing we can deliver. We take a blend of values together and define the brand. This leads us to our organizing concept, those few words that capture the essence of the brand.
If everything your brand says nods to the motivation, delivers the promise, and is consistent with the organizing concept, your brand is following the first agreement.
2. Don't take anything personally.
There is a fine line between listening to your customers and the idea that 'whatever happens around you, do not take it personally'.
On one hand, brands cannot "tune out" – they need to listen to their customers and have two-way communication.
@DaveKerpen told us at @mobium's New Paradigm Series, that the biggest mistake a brand can make is ignoring their highly captive, constantly communicating audiences.
On the other hand, negative events that impact our brands are unavoidable. We can't just ignore it. Smart brands have a plan. Months in advance they prepare how to address negative comments or events that could have negative impact. When such events happen, boom, there your brand is with poise and grace to respond.
When your brand is proactive, it can deliver on its promise in the face of whatever is happening around it.
3. Don't make assumptions.
When marketers don't make assumptions, it means they are asking questions and listening.
Asking questions and listening help us understand the world in which our brand is living and the needs of our customers.
4. Always do your best.
One day a brand can make a mistake. One day a natural disaster or other event outside of our control can impact the success of our brand. The best brands learn from mistakes, roll with the punches, and move forward with solutions.
Strong brands know that their best is different from one day to the next, and always do their best in a constantly changing environment.

Jay Z Courting Clowney for Roc Nation?
July 23rd, 2013| by Lost Lettermen
South Carolina star DE Jadeveon Clowney is almost universally predicted to go No. 1 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft. Reportedly among those vying to represent Clowney is none other than Jay Z and his months-old agency, Roc Nation Sports.
According to @InsideTheLeague Jadeveon Clowney is in regular contact with Jay Z & will likely end up choosing Roc Nation Sports.
— Darren Heitner (@DarrenHeitner) July 22, 2013
As Larry Brown Sports' Steve DelVecchio points out, there's one problem with this "regular contact" if it's in fact true: Jay Z is not yet a certified NFL agent and, thus, is not allowed by the NFL to have direct contact with college players (it would not be an NCAA violation, as long as impermissible benefits are not involved and they do not reach an agreement for representation).
If this issue is cleared up and Clowney's contact with Roc Nation continues, he's a good bet to make good on Heitner's prediction above. Having signed NBA star Kevin Durant back in June, Roc Nation is already a sports agency force to be reckoned with.

Cook 1 min
A Low-Carbohydrate alternative to Potato Chips. This recipe was taken from LowCarbCooking.org.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 24 ounces pepperoni slices
- salt
- Line a Microwave-Safe Plate with several sheets of papertowel. Place the pepperoni slices in a single layer.
- Microwave for 30 - 60 seconds (depending on the wattage of your microwave). The pepperoni slices should be nice and crispy and most of the grease absorbed on the papertowels.
- If any in the center are not crispy looking and still feel soft, microwave more in 15 second increments.
- Salt if desired.

I've been making these for a long time, and could have sworn I'd rated them! Oh well... they are great! Crispy, spicy, fast and easy. One of the ways I've been using them (aside from just snacking) is to crumble them over my salad instead of bacon bits. Yum. Thanks for sharing this technique.
This is so not good for my diet, but I figure there will always be someone thinner, younger, thinner, prettier, thinner, smarter and thinner. Right?
This has ben around so long, I forgot it, Thanks for bringing it back to my attention, .I think pepperoni is great this way, and has many uses. Thank You

Home ⋅ Thank You Notes and Photo Baby Thank You Cards ⋅ 1 Photo ⋅ Orange ⋅ Flat
"I absolutely love these cards--my very favorite thank you cards to use. The high paper quality, contemporary design, and accent color (I chose orange), along with my name (only placed my first name after the words "thank you" on the card) make it special. I love the self-addressed envelopes that match it (I think it's such a nice touch to have personalized envelopes as well). I ordered both the cards and envelopes a second time, and will continue to order more as I run out. Great value!"
"This card is not too fussy and leaves plenty of room to write your own personal message. The design is simple but colorful and eye catching."
"Decided my son needed his own thank you notes because of birthday and Christmas gifts! These are great and people love that it has his photo on it!!!"

During the 2013 holiday season, Robert Bosch associates in the Charleston plant, in conjunction with the ChP Fair Share Board, created their own Bosch Angel Tree program to benefit the Kids Care Christmas Program at Dorchester Children Center located in Summerville, South Carolina.
Three decorated Christmas trees were set up in three lobby locations in the plant. Each tree was decorated with 100+ Angels containing information for children in need. Each Angel tag listed a childs name and items on their wish list. ChP associates took on the challenge of the 300+ children with great enthusiasm!
On December 16, thanks to the amazing generosity of ChP Associates, Bosch was able to deliver more than 800 gifts to Dorchester Childrens Center to bring Christmas to approximately 300 children in the Lowcountry!

Q: We have a small family-owned farm in Florida. We have a couple of African grey Congo and timneh pairs. All of them are around 12 to 15 years old. We bought this farm three years ago, and since then we do not have babies from these pairs. We got them DNA-sexed to see if they are pairs, and our avian vet did check our females to see if they are able to lay eggs. Everything seems to be OK. We are not experienced breeders. Would you please help us figure out what we are doing wrong? I know their breeding season is when the days got shorter, but what about the diet? We feed them a mixture of sunflower seed, horse feed, millet feed, veggie and fruits (1/5 of the mixture — apple, pear, paprika, sweet potato, zucchini) then cooked corn, beans (1/5 of the mixture). I would say they should get more veggie and fruit. Would you please help us? I love those birds and would like them to be strong and healthy.
Jean Pattison, also known as "The African Queen," explains:
Putting partitions between the pairs, so they cannot see each other often helps. Parrots need to feel secure and not threatened by neighboring birds. See my website — I have articles on "How to Breed African Greys", that may help you.
Diet is a very controversial and personal thing. I personally would caution using any pelleted diet that is not made for birds (e.g. the horse feed). Most food made for mammals may have some bacteria that would be harmless to mammals, but can be harmful to birds. With all the research that has been done for avian pellets, I see no reason to use pellets made for other species of animals. Also, after feeding vegetables in huge amounts for over 15 years, I cut my vegetables down to almost nothing. My production went way up and many non-breeding birds began breeding. The fruits and vegetables may have been diluting the nutrition in the pellets. African greys do very well on a pelleted diet with a very small amount of fresh foods. Keep in mind that I am only talking about the species of greys, not macaws or Eclectus, etc. Diets for other species may vary by quite a bit.

A big rig carrying hundreds of gallons of vanilla extract blocked two lanes when it flipped along Interstate 80 in an early-morning crash in Placer County.
Traffic moved without much delay Tuesday morning as motorists were diverted onto a Cisco Grove off ramp and then led back on the highway.
Westbound lanes remained blocked as of 7 a.m. Tuesday and are expected to reopen after 9 a.m.
The big rig, which carried about 27 five-gallon containers of vanilla extract, flipped over just after midnight.
Crews have to reload vanilla onto other trucks before up-righting the truck.
No vanilla extract leaked in the crash, but the California Highway Patrol said that battery acid did.
The trailer remained lodged between the guardrail and bridge post.

Not sure but what is the size of this zip file. Usually .cab files are to do with Windows or so I understand it.
Ok. Firstly guys this is my first post so hello.Today i went to Zest games in Bangkok(where i live) where i can buy original games. After browsing and thinking about Brothers in Arms. I came accross ths game DeuxEx Invisble War. Thought i'd give it a go. So got home and done some things around the room. Finally have just sat down and decided to load this game up. So insert the disk nothing happens then windows kicksa in and shows me whats on the disc. One Zip file. So far so good. So i try to unZip the file. Then its gives me this message...
WinZip cannot open D:\data3.cab because its not in the standard Microsoft CAB format (as defined in mid 1998). The "signature bytes" required by the Microsoft CaB specification are missing.
Bare in mind this is an ORIGINAL game and not a copy. So any ideas guys. I dont know what to do except take the game back tomorrow and see if they will swap the game for something else. Was looking forward to playing this.

Ok. Thanks for any help that you gave. Found out what the problem was. Really simple but the manufacturers fault. One disc was marked INSTALL the other GAME. So obviously i use the INSTALL disk. Would you not? I thought **** it. I'll try other disc as a last resort. None of these discs were marked Disc 1 or Disc 2 just what i stated before. So tried the GAME disc. And it worked. Doh! Maybe the discs were marked wrong? I dont know? But its working now. I feel stupid.
It happens to all of us sometimes! Glad you got it working.
be wary of strong drink - it may make you shoot at tax collectors, and miss!

Starting to panic... Help
Comments (4)
If you are that worried you should talk to your doctor about your concerns. Or don't waste any time once you start to feel contractions.
I understand your fear! My labors have all been between 1- 3 hrs long. This is my fifth pregnancy. Going into labor on my own is a concern for me every time. What we've done in the past is had weekly internal exams towards the end and watched my dilation. Whenver I get close, like 5-7 cm dilated, they either break my water or strip my membranes to get labor going. I've had 2 in the hospital and 2 at home with a midwife. I've never gone into labor on my own. I would love to be able to. I think I could have like a 30 min labor if I did (:
Do you dilate early or show any signs of preterm labor, so that they could catch it prior to you being in full blown labor?
I would consider a scheduled birth but I need this baby to stay in as long a possible. I work outside the home so I would like my 12 maternity leave to include the holidays. I know it's wishful thinking since my other three have been early but still hopeful.
Early signs of labor? Lets see, first one I was lucky and had a dr appt. in which I went straight to the hospital. Next one was not do lucky so my sister ended up driving me. (Hubby met us at the hospital) last one I started labor ing in the morning so hubby was still home. None of which my water broke or I was dilated beyond a few cm.
I know it will all work out in the end and what ever plan is set will be an experience :)

We read with interest the excellent review article by Dr Fink on hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs).1 The author refers to 3 different X-linked HSP disorders. We would like to point out that there is a fourth X-linked disorder, Allan-Herndon- Dudley (AHD) syndrome, which is similar to these 3.2 Although originally described almost 60 years ago, to our knowledge AHD has not been cited in any standard neurology textbook or journal. Like the other 3 X-linked HSP disorders, AHD is of relatively early onset, has limited worsening across time, and is complicated by mental retardation. Neck drop, or limber neck, is a characteristic finding in patients with AHD syndrome. This feature apparently has not been reported in other forms of HSP, so it may well be pathognomonic for AHD. Limited molecular studies show linkage to chromosome Xq213 in 2 different American families with AHD. Three men from England with similar features have been described,4 and 1 of us (P.A.) has observed the features of AHD syndrome in 19 men from 5 Iranian families, 2 with definite X-linked inheritance. All 19 had neck drop or limber neck similar to that reported in AHD.

Author Lela Gholar Tizano will soon be signing her books at Lake Arthur Public Library.
Lela Gholar Tizano's newest book, "Unconditional Love?" is a poignant story of Jae Baxter and Aaron Mills and the manner in which they learn about unconditional love in a marital relationship. An excerpt from the web site includes: "As if guided by an unseen force, the baby Jae gave away unexpectedly comes knocking again at the doors of her life, turning her world upside down.
As the truth unfolds, the limits of Aaron's unconditional love are tested. See how a man grapples with his wife's long time betrayal. Is he weak enough to succumb to another woman's temptations-or will this difficulty give him enough strength to fight for the only woman of his life?"
The author, a native of Lake Arthur, received a bachelor of science in business management from Grambling State University and a Master of Arts in teaching from McNeese State University. She is a special education teacher in Lake Charles, Louisiana, where she lives with her husband and two sons.
Mrs. Tizano will be featured as a Guest Author at Lake Arthur Public Library on Saturday, April 11, 2009 from 9:30 a.m.—11:30 a.m. She will have books available for purchase $20 paperback and $30 hardback. She will be available to sign her books.
The Lake Arthur Parish Library is located at 600 Ford Street in Lake Arthur.Contact for the event is Rosalind Broussard.
Ms. Broussard can be reached at 337-734-2018.

LOUDON, N.H. - Fear not, race fans.
It appears as though Sunday's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway will go off as planned, perhaps even on time.
Rain rolled through the Lakes Region Saturday night and early Sunday morning but subsided as this reporter pulled into the speedway just after 7:30 a.m. Patches of blue sky are appearing above the facility.
The jet dryers are on the track at this moment. However, NHMS has opted not to rent NASCAR's new "AirTitan," which drastically reduces track drying time.
The meteorologist for WMUR-TV in Manchester expressed confidence this morning that, by this afternoon, one won't even know it had rained. However, another small band of showers is approaching from the Albany, N.Y., area, and that could impact the start of the race, shortly after 2 p.m., depending on when it reaches here.
Accuweather,com forecasts rain to return around 10 a.m. but to be cleared out again by 11 a.m. That would still give crews three hours to prepare the track for racing, which would be sufficient to start on time.
Here are links to a few forecasts:

There?s this conversation rolling around the developers? world; itstarted with chapter in[URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1430219483"]Coders at Work[/URL] by the one & only[URL="http://jwz.livejournal.com/"]JWZ[/URL], which I haven?t read, but which[URL="http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2009/09/23.html"]Joel Spolskyenthused over[/URL], praising the practice of ?duct-tape programming?.[URL="http://blog.objectmentor.com/articles/2009/09/24/the-duct-tape-programmer"]Uncle Bob Martin weighed in[/URL].I have opinions and examples too.
First, Joel is [I]right[/I] that you want to pay attention to what JWZsays, since he?s shipped more code that more people have used than any dozenor two average programmers. Also he?s funny. So I?ll buy that book.
Joel is [I]right[/I] that complexity is your enemy. We?d all like towrite code to a higher level of abstraction than, say, C and Unix system callsprovide, but when you?re eight levels up the stack in something like Spring orWebsphere, chances are one or two of the levels are going to generally suck,because that?s how life generally is. So it?s really sensible to worry aboutall those levels.
Joel is [I]wrong[/I] to piss on unit testing, and buys into the commonfantasy that it slows you down. It doesn?t slow you down, it speeds you up.It?s been a while since I?ve run a dev team, but it could happen again. If itdoes, the developers will use TDD or they?ll be looking for another job.
In related news, I?m trying to learn Haskell, and it?s a good thing thatI?m using the online[URL="http://book.realworldhaskell.org/read/"]Real World Haskell[/URL]because I would have launched a physical book across the room during theextended snotty lecture about how those poor dynamic-language programmers haveto use unit testing because they lack the miraculous benefits of strong statictyping. [I]Static typing is not a substitute for unit testing.[/I] Sheesh.
Uncle Bob piles on: ?Programmers who say theydon?t have time to write tests are living in the stone age. They might as wellbe saying that man wasn?t meant to fly.?
[B]Problems and Solutions[/B]
But then he says (slightly paraphrased): ?I think that any programmerthat?s not smart enough to use templates, design patterns, multi-threading,COM, etc is probably not smart enough to be a programmer period.?
[I]What?![/I] My experience suggests that there are few surer ways todoom a big software project than via the Design Patterns religion.Also, that multi-threading is part of the problem, not part of the solution;that essentially [I]no[/I] application programmer understands threads wellenough to avoid deadlocks and races and horrible non-repeatable bugs. Andthat COM was one of the most colossal piles of crap my profession ever foistedon itself.
I?d like to agree with Bob?s basic argument, but I don?t think we?re inagreement on problems and solutions.
[B]Consider the Passenger[/B]
Let?s go back to the issue of complexity and layering. My own mostsuccessful software productions have been down-to-the-metal stuff, usually inC, full of memory-mapping and byte-level I/O. But these days, you can getfantastic results with certain highly-layered approaches.Consider my recent write-up on[URL="http://fixunix.com/ongoing/When/200x/2009/09/02/Ravelry"]Ravelry[/URL], which is built inRails, itself a pretty high stack of abstractions.They?re running it via[URL="http://www.modrails.com/"]Phusion?s Passenger[/URL].
Similarly, check out some recent DHH tweets, which I?ll reproduce forconvenience:
[INDENT]Basecamp is now handling more than 50 million Rails requests perweek. We're peaking out at around 200 req/sec. Damn! ([URL="http://twitter.com/dhh/status/4316088063"]*[/URL])
Basecamp's average response time is 90ms and 87% of all requests finish inless than 200ms. Great stats thanks to jumping off virtualization.([URL="http://twitter.com/dhh/status/4316441600"]*[/URL])
Basecamp runs on 4 dedicated Dell R710's (email@example.com CPUs with 12GBRAM) serving Rails through Apache/Passenger. Zippy bastards!([URL="http://twitter.com/dhh/status/4317638393"]*[/URL])
[/INDENT]Another Passenger success story. And what is Passenger actually? It?s anApache module. For those who don?t know, an Apache module is about asclose to the raw metal as you can get in Web infrastructure; uncompromising Ccode where you get to munge each request as the server works itshighly-optimized way through the business of parsing and dispatching it anddelivering the results.
This seems like existence proof of the assertion that layering is your friend (as in all that Rails machinery making Ravelry and Basecampmaintainable), but so is being close to the metal (Passenger?s C codegreasing the path between the Internet and the app).
If you read the comments around this debate, it?s increasingly obviousthat we as a profession don?t have consensus around the value of TDD.Many of our loudmouths (like me for example) have become evangelists probablyto the point of being obnoxious. But there remains a strong developer factionout there, mostly just muttering in their beards, who think TDD is another flavor of architecture astronautics that?s gonna slow them down andget in their way.
I think we need to bash this out in public. We need to organize a goodhead-to-head practitioners? debate at a conference or on some good onlineproperty, and see if we can at the very least come to a good understanding ofour disagreements.

Saturday's PIAA basketball championship roundup, March 23
- South Park 53, Bethlehem Cath. 38: At Hershey, Shelby Lindsay scored 20 points and South Park claimed its first PIAA girls basketball title in school history with a convincing win Saturday over Bethlehem Catholic.
The District 7 champion Eagles used 16 first-half points from leading scorer Lindsay to build a 10-point cushion at the half on District 11 champion Bethlehem Catholic.
South Park (28-2) used a 17-4 run that started late in the first quarter and carried over to the halfway point of the second to seize control. Lindsay had 10 of those 17 points during the pivotal run.
Lindsay finished 8-of-13 shooting, while Alison McGrath added 10 points for South Park.
Sophomore Kalista Walters from Bethlehem Catholic (28-3) led all scorers with 22 points, and Bridget Smith grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds.
- Tri-Valley 59, Vincentian 42: At Hershey, Tara Nahodil scored 19 points and Tri-Valley won its first girls basketball state championship after pulling away from Vincentian.
Nahodil, a 6-foot 4-inch senior headed to Seton Hall, had 17 in the second half as the District 11 champion Bulldogs outscored District 7 winner Vincentian by 16 after halftime in the Class A final at the Giant Center.
Tri-Valley (28-3) used a 12-0 run in the final 3 minutes, 18 seconds of the third quarter to open a 14-point lead.
The Bulldogs also started the fourth quarter with an 11-2 run.
Juli Weber also scored 19 for Tri-Valley and added 10 steals and nine rebounds. Taylor Troutman chipped in 12 points to give the Bulldogs three double-digit scorers
Brenna Wise paced Vincentian (29-2) with 18 points.
- Beaver Falls 69, Holy Cross 63: At Hershey, Micoy Mason hit two late 3-pointers, and Beaver Falls turned up the defensive pressure in the fourth quarter to rally past foul-plagued Holy Cross.
The Tigers (28-3) trailed by as much as 12 but didn't let up on the Crusaders (27-6) and imposing center Josh Kosin (25 points, 11 rebounds).
Beaver Falls took advantage late with Kosin and teammate Casey Gaughan (10 points) in foul trouble.
Beaver Falls finally took its first lead midway through the fourth quarter. Mason (14 points) hit two 3s in the final 4 minutes, and the Tigers got their last seven points at the foul line. Four Tigers scored in double figures.
Kosin's foul trouble disrupted Holy Cross down the stretch.
- Lower Merion 63, Chester 47: At Hershey, B.J. Johnson had 22 points, and Jaquan Johnson's hustle sparked Lower Merion's fourth-quarter defense on Chester to help win the state Class AAAA title.
Baird Howland added 12 points and a couple key 3s off the bench for the Aces (30-3), who snapped a three-game losing streak against their fellow southeastern Pennsylvania power and held Chester to a season low in points.
After losing the championship game last year to Chester, Lower Merion got its revenge.
The Clippers (27-4) were saddled by 31 percent shooting despite getting some good looks at the bucket. Chester drew to within 43-38 early in the fourth quarter, and fans wondered if the Clippers would make a patented late charge.
Instead, Lower Merion pulled away down the stretch.

Avenger Boots: Men's Brown A7486 Composite Toe Waterproof Insulated EH Work Boots
When it's cold outside, you put on a leather jacket...but you take it off when the weather turns warm. You can't do that with a pair of leather work boots. But you can wear Avenger A7486 Brown Waterproof Composite Toe EH Insulated Men's Boots instead and keep your feet cooler when they need it, warmer when you want, and dry all the time.
A combination of Cordura and leather creates the tall, brown uppers of these Avenger boots. Cordura nylon panels keep the design lightweight and heat-releasing. Abrasion-resisting Cordura nylon is strong enough for any job site despite its lightness and thinness.
Meanwhile, a frame of full-grain leather adds strength and support to the upper design of these waterproof boots. The leather is easy to clean, resistant to weather, and pliant by nature. Together, the two materials create a design that feels flexible, non-bulky, and comfortable no matter how hard you work. And no matter what weather conditions you're working in, your feet are going to feel good when you wear these men's boots.
Waterproof membranes in these insulated boots create a thin shell of protection around your feet, guarding you from rain and moisture. Staying dry is essential to staying comfortable, but so is staying warm. These Avenger boots are made with 400 gram weight Thinsulate insulation. This material absorbs your own body heat, reflecting it back to you as needed. The lightweight insulation layer will keep you warm at many cool temperatures, but you must stay active in freezing conditions to keep feet protected.
Lightweight polyurethane creates the shock-absorbing, sweat-reducing insoles of these EH boots. The inserts soak up sweat so it won't sit on your feet. They're removable and easy to clean, just in case you do sweat a bit while you work. Polyurethane doesn't weigh as much as rubber, but it absorbs even more force. More of the polyurethane in the midsole layer of these safety toe boots gives you another level of softness.
The slip-resistant rubber soles of these brown boots are attached to the uppers with direct attach construction, the most flexible type of construction. Shock-resistant rubber helps you spring back from every step you take while wearing these composite toe boots. Slip-resistance keeps those steps safe. The rubber meets ASTM 2413-11 EH ratings for resistance to electrical hazards. The soles are finished with 45-degree heels to give you stability on ladder rungs.
Non-metallic composite safety toe caps top off the safe design. The composite is lighter than steel, but it protects you just as well. The toe caps meet ASTM 2413-11 impact and compression standards for safety. Unlike steel, they won't conduct temperature or electricity.
Avenger A7486 Brown Waterproof Composite Toe EH Men's Insulated Slip-Resistant Boots keep your feet comfortable in all conditions because that's what feet need. Don't your feet deserve to get what they need? Get your pair of these today!

Customer Reviews For Avenger Boots: Men's Brown A7486 Composite Toe Waterproof Insulated EH Work Boots
I called into your call center today and had the pleasure of speaking with Teresa. My order had been delayed by the manufacturer. I received a prompt e-mail from your company notifying me of the delay and giving me options. I initially just said okay, I will wait for the boots. Then I thought about calling in to see what my options could be. That is when I reached Teresa. She was very friendly on the phone and quick to assist. She helped me identify what boots would work for me and gave me options to get the boots faster than I thought. She even saved me a little money on comparable boots. This was my fist purchase with your company although I will have to say I am going to start promoting your company to my family and friends. It is hard to find a company which will beat everyone's prices and still be concerned about customer service. You have a great combination there and I wanted to make sure you knew it was appreciated."

Responses to Climate Change Bear Major Development Implications: Monterrey Review Process Draft Outcome Document Released
30 July 2008: The President of the UN General Assembly issued a draft outcome
document for the Monterrey Consensus Review Conference where countries would
recognize that responses to the climate change problem have "major development
implications" and "commit to respond to the additional financial requirements
that meet these new challenges with appropriate, concrete international
cooperation measures and policies." The Review Conference, to be held in Doha,
Qatar, from November 29 to 2 December 2008, would also highlight that efforts
to address climate change should "promote increased trade in environmental
goods and not result in environmentally-based trade distortions."
draft outcome document was based on the input received during the first
semester of 2008 from member States, business, NGOs and civil society on the
thematic areas outlined in the 2002 Monterrey Consensus. It reaffirms the
Consensus' goals and commitments on issues such as mobilizing financial
resources for development and international trade as an engine for development,
and welcomes the targets announced by G8 countries in Hokkaido, Japan, to
increase their official development assistance to US$ 130 billion by 2010. The
draft also presents proposals to improve the coherence and consistency of the
international monetary, financial and trading systems in support of
The section on "New Challenges and Emerging Issues" recognizes
"increased costs from damage to the Earth's environment and climate change" as
key challenges and reaffirms the need for concerted global action to address
them "while consistently furthering economic and human development for all." In
particular, the draft document proposes that countries agree to address the
financing needs for mitigation and adaptation to climate change in developing
countries in the context of sustainable development and within the structure of
the UNFCCC.
Countries would also commit to respond to the additional financial
requirements and facilitate the transfer of low-carbon technology. Informal
consultations and drafting sessions on the outcome document will be held during
the second semester of 2008, leading to the Doha Review Conference in November.

WITH PITCHERS and catchers reporting to Clearwater, Fla., in 2 weeks, Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro Jr. hasn't stopped fiddling with his roster.
The Phillies added two veterans - a reliever and an infielder - on Monday.
The reliever is Chad Durbin, a versatile member of the 2008 World Series champion Phillies. Durbin's 1-year deal is pending a physical.
The infielder is Yuniesky Betancourt.
Amaro used the same word to describe both acquisitions: depth.
Betancourt could compete with Freddy Galvis and Kevin Frandsen for a utility-infielder role this spring. Durbin figures to be a proven veteran in what was a young and mostly inexperienced bullpen before the Phils added setup man Mike Adams last month.

THE Department of Mineral Resources would approach the Treasury about imposing a levy on all raw mineral exports from South Africa in order to encourage domestic beneficiation, the department's director-general, Thibedi Ramontja, said on Wednesday.
Answering questions before Parliament's portfolio committee on mineral resources, Mr Ramontja said at present the only levy imposed was on diamonds. According to the South African Revenue Service the export levy is 5% on the total value of the diamonds exported.
Mr Ramontja said the matter had become urgent. "Sooner or later our mineral resources will run out and we can't have people saying that we never developed the vision to beneficiate our own minerals ."
Energy department officials told the committee that the Cabinet had developed and approved two value chain specific implementation plans. The first was for an energy commodities value chain that included coal and possibly gas in the future, and the second was for iron and steel.
The final implementation plan under development would have all value chains as chapters. The plan was intended to provide a comprehensive set of interventions that would create an enabling environment.
Energy department officials said in their presentation the plan was an elaboration of the beneficiation policy adopted in June last year. The emphasis would be on synergies and integration of existing beneficiation interventions in order to maximise the development effect.
Further, the plan would introduce measures to enhance local and domestic markets, and take advantage of on Wednesday's membership of several economic trade blocs, including the Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa informal trade grouping.
African National Congress (ANC) MPs praised the plan, saying it was essential for the development of South Africa, and would create employment and alleviate poverty.
ANC MP and committee chairman Frederick Gona said it was important for the plan to be initiated as quickly as possible.
Another ANC MP, Christopher Gololo, said the plan was ambitious and wished the department well as it rolled it out. "We welcome it."
Inkatha Freedom Party MP Eric Lucas agreed the plan was needed. "I have been singing this song for many years that we export minerals only to import the finished goods. This is a step in the right direction."
But two Democratic Alliance MPs, Hendrick Schmidt and James Lorimer, expressed their concern about the plan. While South Africa had a comparative advantage due to its extensive reserves of raw materials, it did not have a competitive edge when compared with countries such as China. "The difference between beneficiation comparative advantage and competitive advantage is that while we have all the minerals in the world, labour productivity, electricity costs and distance from market are all issues. We have all the gold and platinum but that doesn't lead to competitive advantage," they said.
Mr Ramontja countered that the beneficiation plan took into account that South Africa would be competing with well-established countries and that the country would have to become competitive.

Hearsay Logic

Minnesota Law Review, Vol 72, pp. 813-858, 1992
This paper proceeds on the premise that hearsay presents a special case of the general phenomenon of multistage inference. The authors use Bayesian logic and some simple algebra to explore the properties of argument about the credibility and probative force of hearsay evidence under a variety of circumstances. The authors, however, acknowledge that there are many nuances in hearsay argument that remain to be addressed and they suggest the general nature of some of these unexplored nuances.

I'm another Jake, different from the other 2. I fucked my gf's mom who gave me a show similar to this while I was in college.

One thing I've found over the past few years... the mature women love to fuck, love to have a good time, want to try new things, and love it when you spend the time to get them ready. I liked her, thought he was a dud... she deserved better.

I have no idea why this guy seemed so reluctant. When I was in college, I was helping my aunt put up Christmas decorations (at the behest of my mom). I drove over to her town (about 30 miles away) and while we were putting up the tree, getting out the bulbs and other decorations, she decided we needed something cool to drink. She mixed up some stuff and it was loaded with alcohol, but she said it would help with the Christmas spirit. Well, she was in the mood, hoping that I would soon get in the mood. She started showing me her body (which was quite good for her age) and I got in the mood. I fucked her several more times while I was in college... she'd drive over to my campus and get us a hotel room, or I'd come to her house. She had a daughter who was also away at college. Auntie was a damn good fuck and she taught me a lot of ways to please a woman.
