Another season of NBA basketball has begun, and it's once again time to watch as the league's elite battle it out for yet another year. The NBA definitely has a lot of stars, from the young rookies to the veterans in their late 30s.
But forget this season for a second, and let's jump ahead a few seasons. By the time we reach the 2017-2018 season, which is five years from now, in what ways will the NBA change? Will a fresh face take over as the league's most dominating force? And which players will have faded from relevance as their age wears them down?
The only way to really find out would be to wait five years, but there's always room for speculation. These are the NBA's top 20 players, five long years from now.
Note: College prospects without any NBA experience, such as Shabazz Muhammad and Cody Zeller, are excluded from this list.

text: Explore Western Kenya Kisumu Ruma National Park Kisii and around Kericho and the Tea Country Eldoret and around Kitale Saiwa Swamp National Park Mount Elgon National Park Kakamega Kakamega Forest Share Lake Victoria fills a shallow depression (no deeper than 80m) between the Western and Eastern Rift valleys, yet it is not part of the Rift system. Until the 1960s, it was home to around five hundred different species of brilliantly coloured tropical fish, known as haplochromines or cichlids, all of them endemic – unique to the lake. Scientists, puzzling over how such a dazzling variety of species came to evolve in this largely uniform environment in the space of no more than a million years, have suggested that, at some stage in its history, the lake must have dried into a series of small lakes in which the fish evolved separately. Lake Victoria's cichlids are popular aquarium fish, and one of the commonest larger species, the tilapia, is a regional speciality, grilled or fried and served whole. In the early 1960s, a voracious carnivore, the Nile perch, was introduced to the lake, and proceeded to eat its way through the cichlid population, driving some species close to extinction, though many have held on in parts of the lake which were too shallow for perch, or in smaller lakes around the main one. For local people, the introduction of the perch, which can reach a weight of 250kg, has been a bit of a Trojan horse: while they're consumed locally and sold for export (good news for the lakeshore economy), traditional fishing and processing have been hit hard by the arrival of modern vessels and factories joining in the feast and taking their profits elsewhere. The lake has other problems, however. Algae have proliferated, due to industrial and sewage pollution, depriving the lake of oxygen. More than three million litres of human waste drain into the lake every day, and the Swedish development agency, SIDA, estimates that Kenya, with the smallest share of the lake's shoreline, is its main polluter. As well as suffering a dramatic fall in oxygen levels, the lake is becoming so murky that the remaining cichlids are unable to identify mates, so that hybridization is occurring. Meanwhile, the building of the causeway between Mbita and Rusinga Island has turned the Winam Gulf into even more of a pond, with only one outlet, inhibiting currents and making its water even less healthy. Another threat comes from the water hyacinth, originally native to Brazil. This floating weed grows quickly around the lakeshore and spreads like a carpet across the surface, blocking out the light, choking the lake to death and snaring up vessels. Since the mid-1990s, Homa Bay, Kendu Bay and Kisumu have all at times been strangled by kilometre-wide cordons of the weed, inhibiting passage to all but the smallest canoes, with disastrous results for the local economy. Solutions have included the promotion of products (furniture, paper, even building materials) made from harvested hyacinth. In 2001, mechanical clearance enabled passenger ferries to resume, only for falling water levels to cause their suspension once more. There's been a resurgence of the invasive weed since 2006, and the nutrient run-off following heavy rains in 2010 spread the deadly canopy even further. Read More

December 2013
Statement From LIA Chief Economist John Rizzo on
By: Dr. John A. Rizzo
"The December 2013 Empire State Manufacturing Survey indicated that manufacturing activity improved in New York State, but only slightly. The index recorded a value of 0.98, which was below the expected value of 4.75. A reading above 0 indicates expansion. The index of general business conditions was also below expectations and showed little evidence of expansion, and labor market conditions were weak. This latest news highlights the fragile nature of the expansion for New York State and Long Island, and the need for continued economic stimulus from the Fed."

DotA's true vampire!!
The Hero(in my eyes):
Blood-seeker to me is one hero who I just pick to have fun and own. He is really fun to play with, watching your opponents die by running or just watching them die by your claws!! The down side is that most people kinda just suck with him. Retards in pubs screw up so badly with Blood-seeker that its just sad to see a hero with such potential in the hands of such noobs. So I decided to write a guide on him to clear out any doubts on him.
Skills and description:I'll describe the skills like your daily break-fast menu so go ahead and enjoy the snack
1)Blood Rage
Description(Boring one)- Drives a unit into a bloodthirsty rage. That unit is unable to cast spells, has its attack damage increased, and loses a small amount of hit points every second.
Description(Axe_effect's):This skill is your bread(butter comes later!!)Forget the damage you receive think of the attack you gain, and this skill cannot only be used on yourself,its a target spell for any unit, so even enemies can be blood-raged.
A)Well if you really are retarded enough not to read the whole thing then probably you'd notice it silences them. So big deal if that Crystal Maiden's got a damage buff she's just gonna shake her tits harder to hit you!! she can't freeze you,she can't blast you nor can she do the pole dance to freeze your hormones!! SO BE HAPPY!!! but then again go blood-rage a SpiritBreaker and your gonna wind up dead in your base before you know what hit you!!!so what have you learned? HANDLE WITH CARE!!!
2)Blood Bath
Description(Boring one):Whenever Strygwyr kills a unit, he bathes himself in the blood, regenerating his life source.
Description(Axe_effect's):This is your glass of healthy orange juice, every unit you kill you gain a certain percentage of that unit's hp and restore your own. This means you can go around killing 2-3 people as long you know you're gonna kill at least ONE of them before they kill you cuz after that you're back to full hp and ready for a whole new fight!!
3)Srygwyr's Thirst
Description(Boring one):Enables Strygwyr to sense the bleeding of any enemy hero below 40% hp. If he finds one, Strygwyr gains vision of that unit and increased movement speed.
Description(Axe_effect's):This is your daily vitamins!! It builds your leg muscles!! Before you know it, you'll be running faster than you're school bus!! BUT!!!! you're enemy must be below 40% of actual hp right??? so for that you gotta hit em up real bad!! This skill really makes you faster than that Hunter In The Night!! there's a very low chance that an enemy will get away from you when your thirst is active!!
Description(Boring one)eals a mighty blow to the enemy causing any movement to result in bleeding and loss of life.
Description(Axe_effect's):Here's a little table for you before i decide to describe this skill:
1) Level
2) Mana Cost
3) Cooldown
4) Casting range
5) Area of Effect
6) Duration
7) Allowed Targets
8) Effects
1) 1
2) 150

1) 2
2) 200

3) 70 seconds
4) 1000
6) 9 seconds
7) Enemy units
8) 350 initial damage. Deals 60% of the distance moved as damage
Now I'm sure you're wondering what is this right? well then let me tell Mr.I Want To Know It All!!! this is the reason you wake up!! this your pancake,omlette and whatever you crave for at breakfast this is what makes blood seeker BLOOD SEEKER!! you get it?? the more your opponent runs the faster his life drops!! and the most dangerous part is that its pure damage type!! Any hero with a high movement speed or a hero with low hp is just toast!! The Night Stalker At Night!! IMBA HIGH MS!! OH NO!! SAVE ME!! just rupture the fool and if he runs watch him die!! his high Movement speed with just make his hp leak!! and before you know it he's turned into bats and flown of back to base, dead.
Skill Build:
Well for blood seeker there really is only one skill build.
Level 1-Blood Bath
Level 2-Blood Rage
Level 3-Strygwyr's Thirst
Level 4-Strygwyr's Thirst
Level 5-Strygwyr's Thirst
Level 6-Rupture
Level 7-Strygwyr's Thirst
Level 8-Blood Bath
Level 9-Blood Bath
Level 10-Blood Bath
Level 11-Rupture
Level 12-Blood Rage
Level 13-Blood Rage
Level 14-Blood Rage
Level 15-Stats
Level 16-Rupture
Level 17to25-Stats.
Skill Build Justification:
This build basically aims at making sure you're harassing your opponent,preventing your opponent from harassing you and at the same time having the imba high Movement speed to kill him at level 6. How? well blood bath covers the part where your opponent fails to harass you,if you last hit and deny properly you're hardly gonna fall low on hp.1 level of blood-rage is taken for 2 reasons, 1 you might just need to silence your opponent from using any wicked spell that could kill you.(Lina,Demon-witch,Crystal Maiden) or also silence them from using any stuns or escape mechanisms(Venge,Rexxar,Anti-Mage) the second use of blood rage is that at level one its damage over time is much more harmful than the small increase in damage. Thus using this a couple of times on your opponents not only silences them but also makes them lose a little hp over time.
Q)Why prefer maxing out Bath instead of Rage after thirst???
A)Simply because the percentage of hp regenerated from Bath increases and also level one Rage is taken only and only for silencing, and making sure your opponent doesn't get too much damage gain at the same time. Level 1 Rage gets 100% on this reason.
Item Build:
Basically you start off with these items.Quelling Blade for better last-hitting and denying.Slippers for damage and agility.Tangoes for cheap and efficient hp regeneration.
Your basic item build should look like this:
Orbs: Truly speaking only one orb is viable on blood seeker and that is:
The Desolater. People may think sange and yasha are good orbs but people please!! he doesn't need that movement speed buff nor does he need the maim. The maim is just gonna lower your rupture damage!! So please don't buy this item on him.
Another item most people like to get is a radiance, now I truly don't mind this but only consider this if your farm is going rather extraordinary cuz if not you might want to make your way to treads/phase and wraiths.
This is basically all he needs.
Other very much viable items on him(These aren't optional or luxury, these are just items than can be gotten on him)
Well you get the picture, he is really is a erratic hero!!
Items Justification:
Wraiths-Staple item on most agility heroes. Nothing new
Phase boots/Treads-Again something you see on every hero, phase boots are used if creeps get in your way and treads if you like the attack speed and hp gain from it.
Desolater-Already mentioned in Orbs section
Butterfly-Something most agility heroes would love!!
Radiance-The immolation may kill a couple of creeps around you thereby giving you hp back indirectly so its quite nice to have around and plus it gives you +60 damage.
Monkey King Bar-The mini-stun is just amazing and the new true strike can be quite useful against that mortred or that panda with 99% evasion.
Vanguard-Good damage block if needed and a pretty much a good survival item.
Battle fury-Gotten if you need to push a lot and also gives hp&mana regeneration along with damage.
Lothars-Quick escape mechanism.
Early Game-
Blood seeker early game just sits back and farms a nice hoard of money by picking off creeps and weak heroes. He can roam any lane, thanks to his blood bath he really can't be harassed in any particular lane. His basic combo is just to go into hand to hand combat with the guy, silence him if needed and then if he's had enough and starts running use your rupture to finish him.
Mid Game-
Same thing as early though I would recommend a partner to roam with since you never know when you might need a little back up or a stun. Get your battle fury,lothars or whatever you're going for after your treads/phase and wraiths are done or just work on that radiance.
Late Game-
Well if you haven't got any kills early or mid, I draw two conclusions, 1) you suck with blood seeker and just can't get kills or 2) your allies KS you too much. Well whatever be the reason now its your turn to own and really strike fear into your enemie's hearts. Go around killing anything in sight!! just go wild!!
Have got some amazing replays of me playing blood seeker but sadly I just don't know how to upload them. Some help in how to upload them would be nice. Thank You
Thank you for reading my guide on Blood Seeker.
Best wishes from
Strygwyr the Bloodseeker

Every day, 35 children in America are diagnosed as having type 1 diabetes
"This type of diabetes, which has also been called juvenile diabetes, occurs when the body stops producing insulin, a hormone which is essential for life," explained Pediatric Endocrinologist Humberto Latorre, M.D.
"Insulin helps the body use the food that is eaten and regulates the amount of glucose in the blood, which is sometimes called blood sugar. If a child's blood glucose levels are too high, serious damage may be done to various organs in the body, such as the nerves, kidneys and heart. Today, children with diabetes have more options for blood glucose testing and insulin administration than ever before, and new developments are occurring regularly. With proper daily care and treatment, children with diabetes today lead healthy, active, fun-filled lives."
Monitoring Blood Glucose Levels
"Blood glucose control is the single most important factor in assuring your child's health and in preventing complications," Dr. Latorre added. "Blood glucose monitoring requires a monitor and a drop of blood, which is obtained through a fingerstick with a special device called a lancet. Very young children often cannot recognize the symptoms of low blood sugar, which is why frequent blood glucose monitoring is especially important for them."
Your doctor will work with you and your child to develop a treatment plan that includes:
- A meal plan which helps your child learn to eat in ways that control blood sugar
- A target range for your child's blood glucose level
- A schedule for checking blood glucose levels
- Directions for adjusting insulin doses as needed, depending on blood glucose levels and activities
- Regular exercise
"As your child gets older, he or she will gradually take more responsibility for following the treatment plan," Dr. Latorre continued. "However, parents must continue to be involved and supportive to make sure that your children are keeping their blood glucose levels within the target range."
Your child will also have to have insulin shots every day usually several times a day. "Improvements in insulin and its administration are occurring quite regularly," he said. "New forms of insulin have greatly increased the flexibility in eating patterns and insulin dosage regimens. Efforts to improve comfort have created more choices in devices to administer insulin such as pen-type injectors. External insulin pumps are popular among adolescents and young adults, and implantable insulin pumps are being tested as well. There are also blood glucose monitors that will give continuous glucose readings for three or seven day periods, using one small needle sensor placed under the skin."
Eating and Exercise
"Eating at the same time every day helps to keep blood glucose levels steady," Dr. Latorre advised. "Depending on the insulin regimen, snacks between meals may be important. Children with diabetes can have sweet foods occasionally, so long as they are accounted for in the meal plan and insulin doses adjusted if needed.
"Exercise helps to lower blood sugar, so regular activity is also an important part of treatment for children with diabetes. A child doesn't have to sit on the sidelines during gym class or avoid joining in sports. But, it's a good idea for your child to have snack foods on hand to help maintain their food - insulin balance. Children should also always carry glucose tablets, sugar cubes, or hard candy to treat low blood sugar."
Keeping blood sugar levels in the target range requires balancing insulin, food and exercise. If this balance is not maintained, two short-term complications can occur.
"Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, occurs when the body has too little food or too much insulin and can also be caused by increased activity or exercise," Dr. Latorre stated. "It is the most common problem in children with diabetes and is easily treated by giving the child glucose tablets or glucose-containing foods or beverages.
"Hyperglycemia, or high blood sugar, occurs when the body has too little insulin or too much food. It may also be caused by stress or illness. It needs to be treated promptly. Without treatment, it may cause ketoacidosis, which is a very serious complication that can lead to a diabetic coma."
Tips for Parents of Children with Diabetes
The staff at your child's preschool or school should be advised about your child's diabetes. The school must have a written plan for your child that identifies:
-?When to check blood sugar and take insulin
-?Meal and snack times; avoiding delays and permitting extra snacks if needed, especially in relation to exercise or sports activities
-?The symptoms and treatment for high and low blood sugar
-?Phone numbers for parents and other emergency contacts
In addition, parents can help support their child to:
-?Develop healthy eating habits.
-?Maintain a regular schedule for meals and snacks.
-?Test blood glucose levels four times daily.
-?Make sure your child has a source of sugar on hand at all times to treat low blood sugar.
-?Make exercise a normal part of every day's activities.
-?Meet with your child's school staff to make sure they understand the special needs of a child with diabetes.
-?Encourage full participation in academic, social, and sports activities.
-?Teach babysitters and other caregivers how to use the blood glucose monitor, administer insulin, and treat hypoglycemia.
-?Reassure your child - especially when they're younger - that diabetes is not their fault, and that they didn't do anything to cause it.

Thanks, Ottercat! This has been in the works for four years and FINALLY it will be behind us soon!
So far today the dog has pointed to my daypack, the jacket I wear hiking, the collars, the leashes.......I'm thinking those are BIG FAT HINTS!! Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow and go for an RPR. Question is, will I actually want to come back?!
Random thought-belly fat.
Belly fat just disappeared when I dropped the grains. I have been pretty good through this remodel but this past week have had more bread products than I have in a while. It didn't take long for the belly fat to come back even though the scale says the same.
Drywall guy is almost done so soon I will be painting, the kitchen will go back together and I will get my routine back. Fortunately for me I love being outside in the winter. My motto?
The cooler, the colder, the wetter, the better! Just try keeping me inside.

I decided I better go get in on some of the action by the limestone hatchery. I drove 45 minutes to get there and I was not disappointed. I fished from 1 till 4:30 on Sunday afternoon. The fish were plentiful, but in heavily fished areas were difficult to hook. I brought over a dozen to hand and hooked into at least another 15-20 fish. It was the best fly fishing I've had in months. Caught a few on buggers, a few on egg patterns, one on a brown San Juan worm, and most on an orange sucker spawn. They were rising to midges, but I had left almost all my dry flies at home. Most fish were around 11 inches; however, I did land a nice 16+" trout. I also noticed that some of the fish were full of eggs or sperm. I hope I get a chance to go back sometime soon. Good luck to all.

[quote]Let's say the woman eats a pretty crappy diet, and because she lifts, she puts on 15 lbs of muscle and 5lbs of fat in a year- beats putting on 20 lbs of fat. [/quote]
A woman will not have this ratio. Very few men will. If you are super-lucky, you will add 10 lbs of fat and 10 lbs of muscle - if that's even possible for a woman to add 10 lbs of muscle in a year, I highly doubt it, because a man can maybe add 12 lbs.
When I gained 15 lbs by eating to satiation while lifting in the past 6 month, I only gained 5 lbs of muscle (that's being generous), and 10 lbs of fat. Because fat is higher volume, I obviously look fatter. And don't fit in my clothes, of course. I can post a couple of shots if you wish.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. - Union manager Peter Nowak has a history of achieving results with improvised lineups. But on Friday night, Nowak faced one of the most challenging tasks of his tenure.
Four of the Union's most important players - goalkeeper Faryd Mondragon, defender Sheanon Williams, midfielder Freddy Adu, and forward Danny Mwanga - all were unable to play against Sporting Kansas City due to injuries.
But despite all those absences, the Union found a way to get a point once again. Sebastien Le Toux's goal in the 63d minute allowed the Union to escape Livestrong Sporting Park with a 1-1 draw in front of a sellout crowd of 18,778 fans.

Getting $200,000 in donations from local companies is too little for the nascent Regional Technology Alliance's budget as it tries to encourage high-tech business development in northwest Ohio, says the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority's leader.
The port authority should help Toledo's Regional Growth Partnership raise $1 million for itself and the technology alliance from the private sector, J. Patrick Nicholson, port authority chairman, told fellow technology alliance directors at a meeting yesterday. He said he would bring up the proposed effort at a port authority meeting Thursday.
"There's just an awful lot that needs to get done," Mr. Nicholson said. He also is chairman and chief executive of Toledo's N-Viro International Corp.
For next year, the Regional Technology Alliance will receive $200,000 from companies through membership dues and $160,000 in in-kind contributions such as administrative support from the Regional Growth Partnership. It expects to have the same amount in expenses, including $132,000 in salaries and benefits for a soon-to-be chosen director and a half-time assistant.
More private sector money will be welcome, especially when the technology alliance has to compete with similar agencies for state funds, said Donald Jakeway, president and chief executive of the Regional Growth Partnership.
Gov. Robert Taft said last week he would like to designate $50 million for technology-related initiatives, Mr. Jakeway said.

BROOKFIELD - Growing up in the Badger school district, Kasey Tingler played the world's definition of football, deploying as either a striker or goalkeeper.
Before seventh grade, though, Tingler moved to Brookfield to play the gridiron version of football and give up soccer (as Brookfield didn't have a soccer program). Junior high players don't get to kick much, but they do have the opportunity to punt.
Tingler finally got an opportunity to kick in practice one day, and that was when he made quite the impression on Brookfield varsity coach Randy Clark.
"It was my eighth grade year, and we started kicking field goals during practice," Tingler said. "I think coach Clark noticed me, and once freshman year came around, they tried me out at the beginning of the year and then just picked it up."
The junior enters his second season as the team's main kicker and his third season of action on special teams, where he's gone 33 of 37 on extra-point attempts and went 3 of 3 on field goals in 2013, including a long of 37 yards as a sophomore.
Tingler said it took some time to adjust to the different shape of a football, but a little extra work has allowed him to get used to it.
"The shape was a big deal, but just working every day on it, I picked it up fast instead of just learning it when we had practice," Tingler said.
For this season, not only will the 5-foot-11, 150-pound junior handle the kicking duties, but he will also be the team's punter.
Instead of the traditional style of punting, Tingler will use a rugby-style punt, where he'll be running while kicking. Clark said Tingler's style is even different from most rugby punters, as Tingler drops the ball with his left hand while kicking with his right foot. Normally this would cause an odd kicking motion, but Clark said it works for his new punter.
"He can't kick straight or punt straight ahead," Clark said. "He has to move, and he's perfect at it because he's weird. He's pretty good at it."
The rugby-punt will also add a dimension to the punting game, as Clark hinted Tingler can keep to try and move the chains whenever he wishes. It doesn't come without stipulations, however.
"We call him 'psycho,' " Clark said. "I told him, 'Listen, if you run it, you better get the first down or don't come to the sideline.' "
Odds are that Tingler might not be on the sidelines much for the Warriors this season, as Tingler will play a role on all three sides of the ball.
The junior is Brookfield's leading returning receiver, accumulating 272 yards receiving on 18 catches and scoring three touchdowns. He also could see some time on defense, as he was in a three-way battle for both cornerback spots on defense.
Tingler said his speed and jumping ability should make him effective as a wide receiver despite his 5-11 frame.
"Kicking is obviously No. 1, but receiver, that's going to be a big part of the game this year," Tingler said. "My speed, I think getting on the outside of guys and then them having to make it into a footrace is going to create problems for them. I think I have good hands, so we can use that."
Still, his strength will be with his feet once again, honed through his time with the beautiful game. As to whether Tingler might pick up soccer again,it's something he's considering.
"I was considering taking basketball season off to do a little indoor (soccer) to kind of get back into it, but yeah, I miss it a little bit," he said.

Install on Windows with the pre-built executable (simple)
If you are using the Windows executable-based connector, run the installer .exe to install the connector to your desired location on your computer.
Install using the Ruby gem distribution (complex)
httpclient version 22.214.171.124 (available at http://www.rubygems.org/gems/httpclient)
rally_api version 1.2.1 (available at https://rubygems.org/gems/rally_api/versions/1.2.1)
Install the httpclient and rally_api version 1.2.1 gems before installing the connector, using the gem install command. Additional information about Ruby gems and their installation can be obtained from http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/libraries and other websites related to the Ruby language and ecosystem.
Unpack and set up the source folder
- Unpack the source distribution into a directory you want to use
as the operational home for this software.
- Create a symlink with a shorter name to point to that, either under the same
directory root or from somewhere else (/usr/local or /opt/local).
For example:
ln -s /opt/sw/git2rally-gemconn-1.3.2-cib1043 /opt/local/g2r
- Install the vcseif gem:
# using the above example of having created a symlink to the installation root...
$ cd /opt/local/gitr
$ gem install --local vcseif-[version].gem --no-ri --no-rdoc
Git server versus ssh
The primary use case is for this connector to be run on the platform that the Git software and repository reside on. While it is possible to run this connector on a platform that is not the Git platform, that use case assumes the use of ssh and the proper setup of public and private key information. Setting up ssh and key files is beyond the scope of this document; consult the internet for documents regarding ssh and PKI. If you are running the connector on Windows, you will need to have an executable for ssh if you plan to connect to a remote box. Packages such as Cygwin and the Git installer for Windows include an ssh.exe. You will then need to add the location of that ssh.exe to your PATH environment variable to be able successfully connect to a remote repository or server.
If you are using Option 1 (above) with the executable for Windows, there are no further prerequisites. If you intend to run the Ruby source, Option 2, you will need to install Ruby version 2.0.0 or greater on the machine which will run the connector. We recommend getting the Ruby installer for Windows from rubyinstaller.org or using rvm from rvm.io for Linux/Unix users.
Set up Git
Consider how much Git history you want to have reflected in CA Agile Central
It is possible to operate the connector to catch-up with the complete history of commits in Git. You should assemble a pro and con list of considerations, reasons, and benefits to help you arrive at a strategy that works for your organization with respect to whether you need a complete commit history reflected in CA Agile Central< or just reflected from some particular point in time.
Note: The Git connector will search the Git repository for commits. However, these commits get into the repository from the 'git push' command. The 'git commit' command is merely a local 'save' of your current work.
Lookback setting
The connector stores a timefile with the commit time of the last commit it successfully processed. Since Git is a distributed version control system, a certain number of days to lookback should be configured for the connector. This should be the best guess and comfort level for the way your team uses git. For example: Two team members are working on code in Git. One team member may push their commits up to the server every day. The second team member may only push their commits up at the end of the week. The connector will need to lookback to successfully find your second team member's commits. The Lookback setting in the configuration will lookback that number of days since the last successful commit to find commits to reflect in CA Agile Central. The default units are minutes, but you can use 5d, 5 Days, 24 hours, 24h as other values. As a best practice, we recommend a regular push strategy in your use of git to get those commits on the git server. The connector will check all refs in git for commit messages, so commits on a topic branch other than master will be found and reflected in CA Agile Central.
Set up CA Agile Central
Verify that your target WorkspaceConfiguration has BuildandChangsetEnabled set. Your CA Agile Central workspace administrator needs to enable this for your target workspace. If it is not enabled, the connector will work, but you won't be able to see any of the changeset or change information that is associated with your CA Agile Central work items (story, defect, task).
Configure the connector
Copy the sample.yml file in configs to a new name, for example, repo_one.yaml. Edit the copied file and adjust some of the sample values for servers, credentials workspaces, repository names, and paths to values appropriate for your environment. The file is in YAML format. The YAML format uses indentation to represent structure and colon character (:) and dash character (-) to denote name and value separation and list elements. So, you'll need to be aware of preserving those syntactical elements in your edited file.
Within the Rally section of your YAML configuration file, there is an entry where you can name the SCMRepository in the Rally system to which changeset and change items will be associated. This SCMRepository is a named container which need not exist before running the connector; if it doesn't exist, the connector creates the SCMRepository in the Rally user's target workspace.
There is an optional lookback configuration item that can appear on either or both of the Rally and Git sections of the configuration file. The value for this parameter is expressed in terms of minutes (default or with the use of the m character) or hours using an h character or days by using a d character. Examples:
Lookback: 120 m
Lookback: 8 h
Lookback: 10 d
If you do not explicitly provide a lookback value, the connector uses a default value of 1 hour. CA Agile Central recommends that if you specify a value for lookback in either section that you also specify a lookback in the counterpart section with the same value. If the lookback values are not identical, there is the possibility under some circumstances that a changeset from Git would not be reflected in CA Agile Central due to the nature of distributed version control systems recording the original commit time and not the time the commits are pushed to a master repository; the window of time consideration being too short for the connector to pick up such commits.
Assess how user names are alike or differ in your Git system and in your CA Agile Central subscription. If the user names are universally identical in both systems, then you can either comment out all author sub-items underneath the Transforms section or you can set the value for the Author field in the Transforms section to Passthru. If there is a deterministic mapping that can transform a Git user value to the corresponding correct CA Agile Central user name value, you will need to adjust the transformation value for Author to the appropriate classname. Consult the User-Mapping-Strategies text document to determine which technique fits your particular situation.
Once you have identified a suitable Author transformation technique, you will need to edit the configuration to identify the Ruby class name that will implement that transformation. The Ruby class name must exist in a file of Ruby source code that is in a file in the plugin subdirectory.
Mapping SCMRepositories to VCS repositories
The VCS Connector was designed to operate where there is a one-to-one relationship between a Rally SCMRepository and a VCS repository (Git, GitHub, Subversion, Mercurial, and so on). A one-to-many mapping can create performance issues. When run, the VCS Connector creates a Rally SCMRepository item for the value specific in the connector config file if it does not already exist. This removes a small amount of administrative burden in that you do not have to create the Rally SCMRepository item before you run a configuration mentioning a new repository.
For each repository, there is a config file and a timefile. The timefile records the timestamp of the second-to-last commit for the repository. For example, you have an Apricot repository that had some flurry of commits last fall but nothing since and you also have a Banana repository that has had activity with the last couple of months. When commits for these two repositories get poured into a single Rally SCMRepository, it has the following effect. When processing the config for the Apricot repository, it is searching for recent Changeset records in Rally where recent is defined as the value in the timefile for Apricot. Since the last commit to that repository was last fall, there is going to be an excessive amount of information read-out of the single SCMRepository (because it is looking at all Changesets since last fall, not just the ones for Apricot).

RevURI and FileURI under Git config
This is meant to be the root URI if you are using a web front-end for your system. The URI will be used as a base for the link to the changesets and files. For example, if you have http://server:port/Git/rev/ as your root, a link will be made in Rally for the changeset to http://server:port/Git/rev/12345 for changset 12345. The strings {revnumber} and {filepath} are substituted in when the connector builds the link stored in Rally.
Note that the Proxy* items are commented out by using a # in front of the item. Within a YAML file, any line beginning with a # character is ignored and any content following a # character sequence is ignored (including the # sequence).
Create a Rally API key
A Rally API Key can be created to use to access your subscription data without using your username and password.
To use the API Key in a connector, edit the Rally section in the config .yml file and add an APIKey line. When the APIKey configuration is specified, omit the Username and Password from the Rally config section. If an APIKey entry is provided, the Username and Password are not used and a warning will appear in the log file if they are included in the config file. This is true even if the APIKey entry value is invalid, blank, or nil. If your subscription administrator has configured your subscription to be SSO only, you no longer need to add the user associated with the given APIKey value to the whitelist of authorized users.
The connector now uses rally_api version 1.2.1. Please note that the API Key must have full access, a read-only api key will not allow the connector to write to Rally.
For help creating a full-access API Key, please visit http://help.rallydev.com/rally-application-manager.
Run the connector
Within the Services section of your config file (repo_one.yaml for example), is an entry for Preview that is set to False. You may want to set this value to True in the initial setup phase to see that the connector can successfully connect to Rally with the credentials and information you provided, as well as proving out the use of the git command. Your PATH environment variable must contain a filesystem path where the git command can be found. See Linux / Unix / MacOSX / Windows documentation on how to set environment variables for use within a *nix cron job (or Windows Task Scheduler entry). Once you have determined that a connector run in Preview mode operates as expected, you can set the Preview value in your config to a False value.
On an ongoing basis, you can use cron or Windows Task Scheduler (or any other job or task scheduling software) to run the connector periodically. Initially, Rally recommends the connector to be run every 15 minutes during normal business hours and less frequently during non-business hours.
You can have numerous configuration files in the configs subdirectory and specify them all for invocation either by name or by globbing (wild-card syntax). For example:
git2rally.exe apricot banana cherry dogwood
For Ruby:
ruby git2rally.rb apricot banana cherry dogwood
Whenever the connector is run, an entry is made in the logs/git2rally.log file to note the invocation. For each config named at invocation, there is an entry in that file noting the return code from running that config. When the connector run has finished with all configs, an entry is written to note the completion of the connector run.
Additionally, there will be a file written in the logs subdirectory for each config named that will have much more detail about the activity that occurs during the run. You can adjust the verbosity written to these log files by modifying the LogLevel value in the config file. Normally, the LogLevel would be set to Info. Should you encounter situations where the connector does not complete normally, you can adjust the LogLevel to Debug and run the connector to begin the troubleshooting process. These log files can be sent to Rally Support to expedite the investigation of a case.
The connector will write a file in the base installation directory corresponding to the config name with the date of the last commit processed. The file is named config_time.file and has a time entry in the form YYYY-mm-dd HH:MM:SS Z (for Zulu time). When first run, there won't be a time file for the config and the connector defaults to looking for commits that occurred after 2010-01-01 00:00:00 Z. You can override that behavior by creating and editing a time file for the config you are about to process. By providing an entry in the format mentioned above, you can control that point from which commits are processed.
Within the extension sub-folder of the installation, there is an exemplar Ruby class in the file named statex.rb. The class definition contained in that file is BasicActionsAndArtifactsExtractor. This example class demonstrates the basic technique of examining a commit message and extracting Rally artifact identifiers and state transition target values. Using this class when the config file item UpdateArtifactState value is set to True results in the transition of the State (or ScheduleState in the case of UserStory) of the identified artifact to the state value mentioned in the commit message.
For example, if there is a Rally defect (identified as DE1987) mentioned in the commit message with a new valid state value either immediately preceding or following the artifact identifier, then the connector changes the state of the identified artifact in Rally to that state.Example:
If Rally defect DE1987 had a state of Open prior to the commit and run of the connector, then subsequent to the operation of the connector processing this particular changeset, the state of Rally defect DE1987 would display as Fixed. Please note this message is case-sensitive, fixed is not the same as Fixed.
The commit message may contain references to more than one artifact. For example, this is known to work:
The extension folder allows you to provide your own message processing to extract Rally artifact identifiers and state changes if the example provided does not fit your conventions. Your extension must be a class written in Ruby and must provide an instance method called service which takes the commit message as an argument and must return a Ruby Hash instance with entries keyed by a state name (Fixed, Completed, ...) or nil with a Ruby Array as the associated value populated by Rally artifact identifiers (FormattedID).
See log files for messages
When the connector runs, it generates two log files:
- logs/git2rally.log—A global log file indicating the status of the connector.
- logs/<config-file-name>.log—For each configuration file given on the command line, this will be the log file containing information about any issues with that configuration file.
The RepositoryName is case sensitive
The configuration file contains a line like RepositoryName: Chien1, which is the name of the SCMRepository object in Rally. This name is case-sensitive. Assuming the name was mistakenly specified as chien1, you may see a log file error like:

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Because he is now indoctrinated in the Patriot Way — a culture that rewards the mundane, the noncontroversial and the reticent — cornerback Aqib Talib took a short pause before answering the question.
Following a 43-22 thrashing of the Colts on Saturday to earn another trip to the AFC Championship Game, Talib was asked about departing Tampa Bay before teammate LeGarrette Blount, who was traded to the Pats a year after Talib.
They are stars in New England. Talib picked off four passes this season, and surrendered just two catches in the playoff game while guarding the Colts' best receiver, T.Y. Hilton. Blount busted through the Colts' front seven and racked up 166 yards along with four touchdowns.
Both, though, fell out of favor during their time with the Buccaneers. Neither lasted more than a full season under Greg Schiano, the former Rutgers coach who was fired after a 4-12 season this year. Talib and Blount apparently didn't fit the description of a "Schiano Man," the NFL equivalent of a good soldier.
So, did Talib, who played 4½ years with the Bucs and was a former first-round pick, carry a chip on his shoulder? Was he ready to point a finger back at the coach who traded him for a fourth-round pick?
"It's a blessing, it's a blessing, man," Talib said. "Just to be a part of this organization. To play for Bill (Belichick), to play with Tom Brady, it's just a blessing. Traded, you're mad when you get traded, but at the same time, it was just a blessing.
"(Blount and I) talk about it all the time. We thank (Patriots owner Robert Kraft) for bringing us all the time."
The Patriots' strategy of taking in low-cost, high-risk players backfired in grand fashion over the summer when tight end Aaron Hernandez was arrested in conjunction with a homicide. There were warning signs there, just as there were with Talib, who was charged with simple battery for allegedly assaulting a taxi driver in 2009. (Talib agreed to a pretrial program with prosecutors and reached an undisclosed financial settlement with the driver.) He also had a warrant issued for his arrest in 2011 for aggravated assault. Charges were dropped the following year in that case.
Blount was suspended at Oregon for punching a player during a post-game handshake. He had previously been suspended for lackluster work habits.
But as New England rolls, constantly reshaping and readjusting its roster in pursuit of a fourth Super Bowl title since 2001, they do so with the help of two players the league may have otherwise discarded. They are not Schiano guys, and never felt that way. They are somewhere else. Of course, we should mention that Schiano and Belichick are close friends.
"I didn't feel like I needed anything," Blount said when asked if he needed to get out of Tampa Bay. "I just wanted to play football."
Criticizing Schiano for trying to build a team in his vision is not the answer, just like it is not the answer to laud Belichick for gambling on players with shaky reputations. Both coaches have a philosophy. Both are, at least somewhat, grounded in fiscal responsibility, personnel and depth-related decisions.
But when asked how he learned of his trade to New England after three seasons with the Bucs, Blount opted not to mention Schiano's name.
"I found out through my old head coach in Tampa," he said.
When Blount arrived in New England, he got an apartment across the hall from Talib. He vented, he asked questions. He allowed himself to be ground down, and finally relented to a piece of advice coaches had been telling him for years.
At 6-feet and a thick 250 pounds, he would never succeed unless he lowered his pad level. His unusual speed and athleticism would be worthless if the target area for opponents was wider than some left tackles.
While some of it was desperation — if Blount didn't succeed in New England, would a third team have given him a chance? — Blount made sure to include the name of his instructor.
He was nothing other than a Patriot now. And while it was easy to boast, especially after racking up single-game franchise records, Blount didn't miss his chance to do so.
"I changed it because I had to, because Bill (Belichick) told me to," he said.

We can either look at the large, black stockinette rectangle I finished to make this: (Check out the preview for Noni's spring 2007 collection, too.)
Or you can endure more eco-posturing. What's it going to be?
Just as I thought. Pressing on…
The fashion world is greening up in a big way, so much so that it would be impossible to list all the newly minted boutiques and designers in the eco-sphere. Instead of looking at folks making new clothes, I wanted to highlight apparel manufacturers who are going above and beyond by rescuing elements from the waste stream and rethinking them. Some pieces work better than others, as you will see. But, I think you'll find that the spirit of thrift, creativity and humor contained in these collections is most enlivening. And please submit your own suggestions.
Herewith, a list of of designers and purveyors of repurposed threads:
Sun Moon Lake—Recycled cashmere quilts and other accessories. Stunning!
Ecoist—Repurposed candy wrapper accessories.
Preloved—Redesigned vintage clothing and sweaters from Canada. repurposed sweaters, etc.
SuperLuckyCat—A full line of one-of-a-kind pieces sourced from vintage and remnant fabrics and clothing
Cat's Pajamas—Re-imagined denim and stuff
Ekologic—Lots of rouched pieces made recycled tees, cashmere sweaters, cotton shirts, etc.
Vy & Elle—Cool bags from recycled billboard vinyl
Potential Fashions—Skirts from recycled men's suit pants, hoodies from recycled sweatshirts, girlie jackets from recycled denim and men's sports coats. From Denver.
Rethunk—Trash into treasure accessories. Denver-based.
Mona Lucero—Recycled crochet-afghan skirts, vinitage necktie belts, skirts and bags from vintage fabric and scarves
Sparrow—Vintage re-thread tops and bottoms. 1608 East 17th Ave., Denver. No web site.
There was a very amusing article on the front page of the Style section of the New York Times about a society version of a Shaklee home party. Women with names like Rockefeller and Hermes sat politely sipping decaf and listened to Sloan Barnett (her husband owns Shaklee) describe the horrors perpetrated on health and home by toxic cleaning products. (Surely this would be of greater concern to their housekeepers who actually deploy these products than the madames themselves. But whatever.)
Anyway, the article was amusing and it was a clever PR ploy on Barnett's part to promote Shaklee and raise awareness about environmental toxins. Bless her well-tended little head.
Other than Shaklee there are tons of eco-conscious products to choose from: Seventh Generation, Ecover, Method and Mrs. Meyers Cleaning Supplies. We get the Eco-Products laundry detergent from Costco, which seems fine, and I've got to watch Mitch like a hawk so he doesn't bring home phosphates--the dude's price shopper.
Know what, though? You can also make your own.
Several years ago I did a story on herbs and received some great recipes for making your own cleaning supplies. Now I whip 'em up as housewarming gifts. They're cheap, and the smell, well, almost makes you want to get down on your knees and scrub. Almost. (Recipes provided by Alane Holsteen.)
Basic floral cleaning scrub
2 pounds baking soda
25 drops ylang-ylang essential oil
20 drops lavendar essential oil
15 drops rosewood essential oil
Combine all ingredients into a plastic shaker like a used herb bottle. This recipe is great for cleaning tubs, sinks, pots and pans. To make a more antiseptic cleaner substitute above essential oils with 50 drops tea tree oil.
Scented cleaning vinegar
1 gallon distilled white vinegar (Heinz)
½ tsp-3/4 tsp essential oil of your choice (lavendar, tea tree, lemon grass, lemon)
Combine ingredients. Add to cleaning water and…This is a great tile floor cleaner.
Lemon Balm Furniture Polish
8 ounce wide mouth glass jar
olive oil
dried lemon balm leaves
8 ounce squirt bottle
¼ cup lemon juice
50 drops lemon or lemon grass essential oil
Pack jar with lemon balm leaves. Pour olive oil to the top. Cover with a cheesecloth and rubber band and allow to sit outside in a sunny spot for one to two weeks. Strain out lemon balm. Add ¾ cup infused olive oil to 8 ounce squirt bottle. Add lemon juice and essential oil. Shake well. And rub it on wood furniture.
All-Purpose Household Cleaner
16 ounce spray bottle
16 ounces purified or distilled water
4 Tbs distilled white vinegar (Heinz)
1 tsp Borax
¼ cup liquid vegetable-based soap (Dr. Bonner's)
½ tsp essential oil (tea tree, lavendar or orange)
Combine all ingredients. This is a great all-purpose. But should be followed with a vinegar rinse.
For you knitters of a certain age, you may recognize this impulse: To squeeze the last bit of juice from one's youth, very, very hard. In my case it manifested in an inexplicable desire to knit a red pencil skirt--a short, red pencil skirt. See.
A Nake-id original knit from Araucania's Limari, color 504 on US 11 and US 13
There's even a sexy backslit. Too bad that at my age I haven't learned to put a skirt on straight.
What to wear when kicking some Supreme Court ass.
Two enormous piles of dishes later, we had a tiny, hugely expensive raw lasagna awaiting us in the fridge.
As I mentioned last month, a trip to a "living food" cafe in Berkeley got me all intrigued with the raw food movement. And always up for something new that doesn't imperil life and limb, I thought, "Why heck, we all need more veggies."
As I dove into the Internet, I discovered that raw cuisine has its own conventions (I still haven't figured out the Celtic salt thing) and language and appliances. You know the thing that slices and dices and makes great julienned fries and boy, does it catch fish? You'll need one.
Not quite ready to buy a juicer, spiral slicer or dehydrator and unsure how to soak and ferment nuts to get real nut cheese, I wanted a recipe for us secular types. Happily, The Raw Chef provided.
The prep, which involved two blender sessions, two food processor sessions and massive amounts of dishes, certainly doesn't have one slaving over a hot stove. Instead I found myself mining the recesses of our cabinets for additional appliances to masticate, crunch, slash, slice, combine and froth. Walnuts (raw) and sun dried tomatoes (dehydrated) required soaking. Zucchini needed marinating. And spinach needed wilting. Then it all had to be ground and whipped into submission. All in all the dish had five layers--a faux noodle layer, faux meat, faux cheese, tomato sauce and pesto. (The recipe called for a sixth wilted spinach layer, but enough already. No wonder our mothers raised us on tuna casserole.)
When I showed it to Mitch, he asked, "Do you eat it cold?"
"Honey, it's raw."
As a concession to both our palettes, I let it warm to room temp before we tucked in. The verdict? Amazing. Absolutely delicious.
Today, though, we have serious garlic hangovers. That raw garlic is some serious sh*t.
Maintaining blog silence in honor of the faculty, staff, students and victims at Virginia Tech.
Having a few issues with the old blog editor this morning, and gosh darn it, even had something to show. Stay tuned while I adjust the dials.
In the meantime, go visit my pal Roxanne, who's chronicling her adventures in alpine living and doggie agility training at Champion of My Heart.
I suspect only a few of us knitters would have this by the bathtub, Lee Iacocca's Where Have All the Leaders Gone? But take a look at the excerpt. Let's hope he gets lots and lots of press!
And, in other news, Kurt Vonnegut passed. I'm going to curl up with Welcome to the Monkey House (my all-time favorite short story collection) and keen a bit.
(If you've never read his brilliant story, EPICAC, here's a link.)
Been trying to back off from the knitting for a bit so as to catch up on reading, but haven't been able to penetrate some of the latest must-read titles. Bel Canto reads beautifully but elegaically, making it a bit of a slog; and Kite Runner, well, I just can't seem to push past the first 50 pages. The Harlot's book is clever, and I've been dipping in and out, and there are lots of juicy nuggets in the new "green" issue of Vanity Fair, but nothing has grabbed me by the throat and said, "Dude, read me or die."
This comes the closest: One God Clapping: The Spiritual Path of a Zen Rabbi. It's a fascinating memoir that spans the spiritual landscape of the '60s and '70s. I'm enjoying it thoroughly. But what the rabbi hasn't explained is why he felt compelled to spend the better part of a decade on his tuchas? Maybe that comes later.
You guys reading anything?
As some of you know, the Nake-id home is an interfaith household, so certain times of the year—every day's a holiday!
This week, the Christian and Jewish spring holidays coincided with a visit from family and cousin Stephanie's new boyfriend, so there was more feeding than ususal, beginning with an enormous, stomach-crushing seder on Monday and finishing with Sunday morning matzo brei and a chicken-and-biscuit Easter dinner. As a consequence I will be going here this evening for a little schvitz.
Even after all this feasting, we'll still need to lay in a few provisions. I'll be shopping with this:
And it folds up into the cutest little pouch, like so:
The specs:
US size 15 needles
Blue Sky Alpacas Organic Cotton in Pebble and Nut
Oat Couture Stow-Away Shopping Bag
I knew there would be a crowd, but given the fact that I live 10 minutes from downtown and had books to collect at the library, I didn't arrive at the Tattered Cover until 10 minutes before her talk.
Let me repeat: I knew there would be a crowd, but didn't think it would be like Stephen King or Joan Didion or Cynthia Rowley. Even when Joyce Maynard debuted her tell-all memoir about J.D. Salinger, the crowds were nothing like this. And that book was about sex with one of the great literary figures of the 20th century. Sort of.
At the entrance to the bookstore a huge sign announced Stephanie's appearance and then warned, "No one will be admitted without a ticket."
We didn't need tickets to see Jon Krakauer. And he climbed Mt. Everest with a bunch of people who died.
Well, there are worse things than being stranded in the Tattered Cover without a "ticket." So I marched up the stairs determined to explore the new hardcover fiction and non-fiction should the Harlot's talk be "sold out."
Not to worry, there were plenty of seats, though "plenty" might be overstating it. Maybe 20 chairs sat vacant. But I settled in and surveyed the room. Lots of knitting going down, as one would expect. Lots of knitting on double points (to each his or her own). And deafening conversation, like nothing I've ever experienced at an author appearance before.
Then she entered the room. This was most remarkable: The audience screamed. Like she was Elvis. Or Davey Jones. Or Hillary Clinton. I felt a little odd that I was neither knitting or screaming, but have sat through so many poetry readings, literary gatherings and writerly soirees where the mode of behavior mimics that of the mortuary that to experience ecstatic shrieks in a retail mausoleum for bibliophiles was quite startling.
Maybe the language isn't dead after all.
I won't do Stephanie's humor justice on these pages. If she spins through your city, go see her. She's a brilliant stand-up comedian, so good in fact, one wonders how she'd play on Leno--to civilians.
She's also more comely and younger-looking than she appears in photographs. And she was wearing a rockin' sweater.

An injured bear was rescued Monday morning on the grounds of Heavenly Mountain Resort in South Lake Tahoe.
Watch report: Heavenly Mountain disrupted by injured bear
Officials with the resort called authorities who subdued the bear with darts before taking it to a local hospital, according to the Bear Education Aversion Response League.
The bear was undergoing X-rays Monday afternoon, and hospital officials said they are hopeful the animal will make a full recovery.
In January, a bear was spotted on a race course during the Far West Masters Ski Event at Heavenly Mountain.
Sanctuary officials are investigating to see if the bear found injured Monday is the same bear photographed on the slopes two months ago.

Via's Employment Program Receives $10,000 Grant
Via's Employment program received $10,000 from the PA Medicaid Infrastructure Grant Promoting Social Security's Work Incentives to help people with disabilities find jobs. Via's Employment program provides job development, job coaching and follow-along support to adults with disabilities so they can work in the community.
The goal of the Work Incentives grant is to reach out to interested job seekers with disabilities to help them access federal and state work incentives. Social Security Work Incentives make it possible for people with disabilities receiving Social Security to work and still receive benefits.
Individuals often want to work but are not knowledgeable about how work income will affect their benefits. Through this grant, Via will provide education and assistance to adults with disabilities and their families to help them understand how they can gain successful employment and maintain their Medicaid and Medicare benefits.
Work Incentives are a valuable piece of an individual's plan to enter the work force and provide a safety net to assist beneficiaries in finding the right job and succeeding in the workplace. With Via's assistance and using tools like Social Security's Work Incentives, more and more adults with disabilities are finding and maintaining successful employment in the community.
For more information, visit us online or contact Corey Smith, Via Employment Director (email@example.com | 610-317-8000 x496).

STARKVILLE — Nashville-based Sitel will lay off 253 workers at its call center in Starkville.
Sitel spokesman Andrew Kokes tells the Starkville Daily News that the layoffs represent about 29 percent of the location's hourly and salaried work force.
Kokes says the center had 850 workers at the peak of its operations at the Thad Cochran Research, Technology and Economic Development Park.
Kokes says the layoffs come as a result of a reduction in business needs of two different customers — which he described only as a health care company and a high-speed internet provider.
Kokes says employees will be laid off in two segments — one group on Feb. 2 and another on March 3.

JERUSALEM, Israel - A senior Israeli official denied reports Tuesday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is ready to accept the pre-1967 lines as the basis for restarting negotiations with the Palestinians. Netanyahu and others have referred to those lines as "indefensible borders."
"The prime minister has been very clear. There will be no return to the 1967 borders. Future borders must be negotiated. They must reflect new realities on the ground and Israel's national and strategic interests," an Israeli official told CBN News.
Some news agencies reported that Netanyahu would be willing to make that concession if the Palestinian Authority reneged on its plan to seek unilateral recognition of statehood at the United Nations in September.
"We are willing in a framework of restarting the peace talks to accept a proposal that would contain elements that would be difficult for Israel and we would find very difficult to endorse," The Associated Press and Reuters quoted one official, on condition of anonymity, as saying.
Both Israel's Channel 2 television and Israeli Radio reported that Netanyahu would be willing to accept some kind of a land swap of sovereign Israeli territory in exchange for holding onto its "main settlement blocs," such as Ariel, Ma'ale Adumim and Gush Etzion.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said Monday the P.A. has not dropped its plan to go to the U.N. in September. The Arab League has already submitted a request for the United Nations to recognize "Palestine" as a state.
If President Barack Obama or anyone else vetoes the initiative in the Security Council, the General Assembly would likely pass a "nonbinding resolution."
At a conference in Tel Aviv this spring, Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon said the "automatic majority against Israel in the U.N." would allow the measure to pass in the General Assembly.
"Israel will not succeed to prevent recognition of a Palestinian state in the General Assembly, driven by an automatic Arab majority," Ayalon said.
"But such a decision will not be taken in the Security Council where there is a majority of responsible countries," he said.
But many Palestinian Arabs believe even a non-binding resolution would further isolate Israel and upgrade their status in future negotiations.
On Monday, senior P.A. official Yasser Abed Rabbo announced plans to kick off a series of mass marches against the Israeli "occupation" on the eve of the September 20 U.N. vote.
Rabbo said they've named the campaign "Palestine 194," representing the quest to become the 194th U.N. member.
"The appeal to the U.N. is a battle for all Palestinians and in order to succeed, it needs millions to pour into the streets," Rabbo said.

213.5 lbs - went up 1/2 a pound after the miso soup. Just didn't sit well in my stomach though it did taste great. DH also said it didn't sit right for him so the miso is out. I felt weird last night and this morning - bloated and didn't feel great. Wasn't hungry at all until lunch time. Feel much better this evening and more back to feeling good. Spent most of the day outside, digging in the garden (lovely spring day!) and collecting stones /rocks and weeding, watering etc. Wonderful day - first day with weather nice enough to wear shorts ... felt wondeful to have the sun and fresh air. Unfortunately had to wear long sleeves because of my arm that is still healing and very tender to the sun's rays.
Breakfast: None but did have a cup of black tea with cream and stevia.
Lunch: 1 1/2 sausages. Greek yoghurt with a few almonds and strawberries. Black tea with raw milk/ cream and stevia.
Dinner: 2 fried eggs and 6 slices bacon :o Is that too much? I feel pretty good right now. Distinct lack of vegetables today.
Kids tired out tonight and I am not far behind them :) Been a busy and satisfying day. No homeschool today - just blew it off completely and the kids were very silent about school LOL. Oh well, we'll hit it again Monday. I am noticing that my son is suddenly drinking a bunch more water than usual and this evening he complained of a headache. I have a feeling he is experiencing a little carb 'flu. I have just cut way back on the amount of bread he gets (only Ezekiel bread) and he is down to one or two slices a day with some days none at all. I have told the kids I am not buying any more bread when this loaf is finished. I think DS is rather sad as it has been his staple as long as he can remember... Am going to try making some paleo bread and see if they find it palatable. It would be nice to have a 'replacement' of sorts. Made the plain greek yoghurt into vanilla yoghurt with a little honey and a splash of homemade vanilla extract. They LOVED it :) It is always nice to find something they really enjoy that is good for them. Just going to keep on trying out different paleo / primal recipes until we have our own selection of things that are permissible and healthy.
Am looking forward to making healthy homemade icecream again as the weather warms up - yummy! And I don't even need to feel guilty for eating it :)
Funny, DH and I were talking about the annual family reunion coming up in July and saying how I am going to have to put together a whole bunch of food to take with us! Most of the family is VERY into the low fat high carb diet and we are sure to come under fire for our shocking eating habits! Hopefully by then I will have lost more weight and be even healthier so that I am a good example of how living this way is good for us! Guess we'll see ... planning on making a big batch of biltong (dried raw meat South African style) to take with us and then some veggies that are easy to eat without any real preparation. A chunk or two of butter :) Whole bunch of boiled eggs and raw milk.. could make smoothies with raw eggs and some berries now that I think of it... again we'll see what comes of this. Maybe we can find a place that can cope with primal and CW people!
