SHEPHERDSTOWN - What is it about West Virginia that causes her young people to want to leave her after graduation, but then compels them to come back?
We may never know the answer, but it's almost always certain, and Jawaan Holmes is just one of her young sons she has called to come home.
Holmes was born and bred in Shepherdstown. He played baseball for Jefferson High School then went on to receive his business degree from Fairmont Sate University. After leaving West Virginia for a few years, Holmes has returned to the area and has managed to meld his love for sports, music and his community together by forming Home Team Sports and Entertainment, LLC, promoting sporting events and concerts in the four-state region while introducing local talent to the area.
Home Team Sports and Entertainment is bringing the award winning rhythm and blues band, Jagged Edge to perform at Shepherd University's Butcher Center Saturday.
"Our goal is to have as much positive entertainment for our community as we can," Holmes said during a telephone interview. "My goal is to bring nationally known artists and sporting events to our area instead of people having to go to D.C. to see them. I'd like to bring about three concerts per year to our own backyard."
Jagged Edge is one of the soulful ballad singing groups of the '90s whose sultry sound has managed to propel their music around the world.
Fact Box
What: Jagged Edge
When: Doors open at 6 p.m., concert starts at 7:30
Where: Shepherd University Butcher Center
Cost: $25, general admission
More information: visit www.hometeamsports ent.com
"We're really excited about (Jagged Edge) coming. They're a multi-platinum R&B group that's been nominated for several Grammys and Soul Train Awards. In 2001 they won the Soul Train Award for Best R&B/Soul Album by a Band, Duo or Group," Holmes said. "The doors open at 6 p.m., the concert starts at 7:30 p.m. and they'll (Jagged Edge) take the stage at 9:30 p.m."
With the show hosted by comedians Dontay "Tay Boogie" Munford and BET Comic View veteran Chad Beadle, Holmes said they've selected six opening acts - all from within the four-state region - that will perform for seven to 10 minutes each.
"We've asked them to bring CDs, T-shirts - anything to maximize their exposure and just get them out there," Holmes said. "One performer, Sam Moore, a hip hop artist, is a Shepherd University student. He's a senior and its a good opportunity to show his classmates what he can do."
Holmes said they try to make everything Home Team Sports and Entertainment promotes family-oriented - including bring Jagged Edge in concert.
"We're really pumped about it," he said. "Folks should keep an eye out on us because we're gonna try to keep positive entertainment coming to the area."
Tickets for the Jagged Edge concert may be purchased at the Shepherd University Book Store, from the Home Team Sports and Entertainment web site at www.hometeamsportsent.com and various other local businesses.

Making the Community Reinvestment Act More Effective
Testimony Before Before Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Office of Thrift Supervision
SOURCE: Center for American Progress
CAP Action's Sarah Rosen Wartell testifies before the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Read the full testimony (CAP Action)
You invited comments on a number of important issues that, if addressed well, could help to make the Community Reinvestment Act a more effective tool to help meet the credit, community development, and banking service needs of our communities, including low-and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with safe and sound operation of the financial institutions that provide credit to these communities. Many others will testify today, and at the other hearings to follow, with specific proposals for how to tackle these issues—many of which we would endorse. But we at the Action Fund and our affiliate, the Center for American Progress, have focused our work on related issues:
- Understanding the origins of the housing bubble and foreclosure crisis
- Assessing the still mounting devastation of our communities in the aftermath
- Reimaging in specific a new, responsible, stable, and sustainable housing finance system
- Developing policy to help our communities shift from carbon dependence to a new low-carbon economic development model.
As a result, we thought that our best contribution would be to put the CRA regulatory reform process in a larger context.

I think Nicole has the better personality and i very beautiful but I think Cheryl is slightly better looking.
(Original post by ilovelife1234)
Cheryl Cole is gorgeous although she has no talent, she's just a pretty face.
I think nicole will be remembered in years to come. she is already a global star through her success with the pussycat dolls. and she is just starting out her solo career. her solo music is doing pretty well in the UK but she did plug herself and two of her hits on x factor and BGT so its hard to say whether without these shows she would have been that successful. now with the US x factor she will go on to have more fame and her solo music should do pretty well too in the US. she seems to be more popular with the british public than cheryl cole is right now. the public seem to have turned against cheryl and so have the media. the media used to love her. cheryl doesn't even have the UK x factor now and she probably won't be bringing out any more solo music as she doesn't have any shows to promote them on. unless she gets back with GA and they have some big hits she will fade from the public eye and will soon be forgotten.

I don't really know enough about Nicole Scherzinger, but I cannot stand Cheryl Cole! She's a complete pikey. Remember when she attacked the toilet cleaner? Complete lack of class. A leopard can never change its spots, so once a chav always a chav. I hope the world wakes up and sees her for what she really is. She grew up on a council estate, and have you seen her family!? A bunch of criminals. She doesn't have any talent, she's as common as muck, awful voice and mannerism, atricious make-up and hair... I can't stand her arrogance. She is absolutely nothing. I think it's about time classier women are given more attention and the media stops focusing on Cole, because anyone with a brain surely doesn't care?
Oh and before anyone starts either quoting me or thinking I'm envious of her, I most certainly am not!
"I can't stand her arrogance"....... Hypocrite.
On topic - Nicole easy she's already made it.
I'd say Nicole. I've never liked Cheryl though so I'm probably biased.
No it's not a fac...oh wait yes it is.
It's funny how Cheryl has half Nicole's votes but only 1 post actually said Cheryl.
Anyway I respect neither I just voted based on talent and looks.
Offline0ReputationRep:(Original post by hali0112)
its hard to say whether without these shows she would have been that successful.
I saw Nicole Scherzinger on telly last night. She was really greasy and oily and reminded me of a fish..
I'm one of the people who voted Cheryl. I don't particularly like either of them, but I remember disliking Nicole ever since PCD, aka Nicole and her merry troupe of backing dancers. I just sort of felt like she got loads of unfair attention, like she adores the limelight or something? But yeah, I also felt it was quite rude of her to take Cheryl's place on the X factor, I think it was pretty obvious she only accepted the role of presenter or whatever she was doing because she knew they'd ditch Cheryl =/
(Original post by Wincanton Wanderer)
Yeah, but before UK Xfactor cheryl was just 'one of the hot ones' from girls aloud who married Ashley Cole... She probably will release new singles, she will make money becuase all my mates are obsessed with her looks... that's what sells
nicole everytime

It's quite surprising, really. The secret cause behind so much digestive distress isn't necessarily the balance of bacteria in your gut, but the sticky protein molecules called lectins that are part of the natural makeup of many living things. They provide protection and bind protein in molds, bacteria, and other substances that can injure the plant.
When you eat foods that contain lectins, they aren't broken down or neutralized by your stomach acids or digestive enzymes. Some bind our good bacteria, rendering them useless in our ultimate digestion. Others stay intact and attach to cells in our digestive system which weakens the lining of the intestines. When this happens, lectins and other foreign protein pass right on through to your bloodstream, where they're carried throughout you body and make antibodies to our tissue.
As a result, these tiny molecular terrorists can leave a path of destruction! They have been linked to symptoms beyond digestive woes. Research shows that lectins bind to cells far and wide—including connective tissue in your joints, the cells of your organ tissues, and immune cells. For example, they cause the most common form of both an over and under active thyroid (hyper/hypothyroidism) called Hashimotos thyroiditis. It's no wonder that once these devils have been locked out or up, people report greater joint comfort, relief from bloating, weight loss, and clearer thinking. But their main path of attack is all along your digestive tract.
The answer for some may be to eliminate these good-for-you foods from your daily menu. The top five are gluten, casein, egg white, soy, and peanuts, but can include citrus fruits, tuna, and the night shades such as tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and cucumbers.

[Parameters: Topic='ATMOSPHERE', Term='ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE', Variable_Level_1='AIR TEMPERATURE']
MSU Ch 3/4 Daily Upper Troposphere Temps with Limb93 Correction V001 (MSUUTT) at GES DISCEntry ID: GES_DISC_MSUUTT_V001
Abstract: Section 1. General Description
Spencer and Christy (1990) demonstrated that accurate estimates of global
atmospheric temperatures could be derived from the Microwave Sounding Units
flown on NOAA's TIROS-N series of satellites. ... The MSU's have been
continuously operating for more than 14 years collecting measurements of the
thermal emission of radiation by molecular oxygen at four frequencies near 60
The four MSU channels have contribution functions (CF's) determined by their
wavelength and the atmospheric profile of oxygen. MSU channel 1 has a CF peak
near the surface, and is influenced strongly by temperature and liquid water
near the surface. The channel 2 CF is dominated by a wide peak near 50 kPa.
Channel 3 peaks near the tropopause (25 kPa) and the Channel 4 CF has a
somewhat sharper peak in the lower stratosphere (7 kPa).
Spencer and Christy (1992 a,b) demonstrated that the MSU calibrations have been
very stable, with a precision of monthly satellite measurements of 0.01 deg C
for the global mean.
A. 3/4 Upper Tropospheric Retrieval.
Spencer has developed a procedure for calculating the temperature of the upper
troposphere in the tropics using MSU Channels 3 and 4. This Channel 3/4 CF has
a peak in the upper troposphere near 25 kPa. Because the 3/4 CF straddles the
mid-latitude tropopause, this product is only calculated for the tropical
latitudes between 30 S and 30 N. The influence of calibration drifts in
channel 3 on several MSU instruments are present in the 3/4 time series, and
therefore the upper tropospheric temperature product may not be useful for
monitoring long-term trends. The 3/4 retrieval algorithm screens the data to
remove calibration differences between satellites along with the effects of
precipitation size ice particles, and corrects for the effect of changing earth
incidence-angle across a scan line (Limb93). The data have been inter
calibrated to correct for differences between local orbit crossing times (e.g.,
2:30 a.m. vs. 7:30 a.m.), and diurnal differences (a.m. vs. p.m.). As a last
step, the algorithm screens out known bad data points found during an
exhaustive analysis of the entire data set.
B. MSU Calibration.
The Limb93 Ch 3/4 retrievals use calibrated MSU data. The MSU brightness
temperatures for all four channels were linearly calibrated using the
radiometric counts measured viewing the earth scene as compared to the
difference between the radiometric measurement while viewing a warm calibration
load and a similar view of deep space (assumed to be 2.5K). For information on
the calibration procedure, the user is referred to the TOVS MSU Pathfinder
User's Guide.
Section 2. MSU LIM93 Data File Structure
The Limb93 data files are given in HDF structure. Every file contains 365
Scientific Data Sets (366 for leap years), one for each day of the year. Each
SDS contains a two dimensional data set, the x dimension is longitude and the y
dimension is latitude. The grid is composed of 144 (longitude) by 72
(latitude) 2.5 by 2.5 degree grid boxes. The first grid box is centered at
78.75 N 178.75 W. The data structure for the SDS data is int16, and the data
are given in hundreths of Kelvin degrees. Data for grid boxes outside the
tropics (30 S to 30 N) are denoted as missing, because the increasing
stratospheric influence invalidates the 3/4 limb correction.
Section 3. Algorithm Description
Upper Troposphere Deep Layer Mean Temperature (UTT).
The SDS's contain the upper tropospheric temperature parameter (Ch 3/4) for the
tropical areas which is derived using a linear combination of MSU channels 3
and 4:
3/4 Tb = 1.35 * Tb3 - .35 * Tb4
where, Tb3 refers to the brightness temperature in MSU channel 3 and Tb4 the
brightness temperature in MSU channel 4.
The 3/4 retrieval is calculated for each footprint of the MSU scan line, the
latitude and longitude of the footprint are calculated and the appropriate limb
correction (Limb93) is applied based on latitude, longitude, month, and scan
angle. Next, the footprint data are assigned to the appropriate grid box.
Data for areas outside the tropics have been set as missing. The data are
intercalibrated to remove differences in the instruments on the different
satellites, differences due to orbit geometries (7:30 a.m. vs 2:30 a.m.
satellites), and diurnal differences (a.m. vs. p.m. orbits). After the a.m.
and p.m. orbits are processed, a horizontal interpolation is used to fill some
of the empty grid boxes.

Every springtime you'll hear them: stories of how a female pet bird suddenly looks to be at death's door, when the previous day she was happy, active and building up a nest. More often than not, the cause of such sudden "illness" is not really a disease at all, but the result of her inability, for whatever reason, to lay her egg. This is most commonly known as egg-binding, and it can be deadly — if she is unable to lay her egg, she will die.

Attorneys for a group of same-sex couples are asking a judge to clarify that he intended to strike down all Arkansas laws prohibiting same-sex marriage when he voided the state's ban last week.
The attorneys on Thursday asked Circuit Judge Chris Piazza to expand his ruling, a day after the state's highest court noted that a law prohibiting clerks from issuing marriage licenses to gay couples was still in effect. Justices have declined to stay Piazza's ruling, which struck down a 2004 constitutional amendment and a 1997 law defining marriage as between a man and a woman.
More than 450 marriage licenses had been issued to same-sex couples following Piazza's ruling, but the two counties that had been issuing them Wednesday said they would stop after the Supreme Court decision.

Last week, I was craving Breakfast Muffins! I wanted some…I really wanted some. I knew what I wanted: banana & blueberry muffins. They had to be healthy and easy to make as I didn't have any fancy ingredient in stock (aka buttermilk – do you find it difficult to find buttermilk??? I do!)
So I went through to my cookbooks in quest of the recipe but unfortunately didn't find the one.
Can you imagine that amongst my million cookbooks, there was no recipes I was inspired by???? crazy!
Then, I switched to my other cookbook, aka Internet and finally found the recipe I was after: Cinnamon, Banana and Blueberry Muffins, by The Hairy Bikers.
I'm sure you know The Hairy Bikers. Well, I don't…I didn't. I'd heard their name before but didn't know who they were. Weird? Well remember I'm French.
Anyway, I followed their recipe. Didn't change much, just added more bluebs (200g instead of 150g) and used 100g wholemeal flour + 150g plain flour instead of the 250g plain flour.
Also, after watching Baking Made Easy, I got the idea of sprinkling my muffins with the bran of the flour.
The recipe says we can make 8 muffins but I made 11 of them!
Usually when I follow a recipe, I get less that what it says so I was pleased to get more this time ;)
So hop in the oven and 20 mins later, I had 11 beautiful healthy muffins!
I let them cool down and then couldn't resist and ate one.
This was a mistake! I should have waited. As they were still warm, they stuck to the muffin case :( Despite my muffin being "broken", it still tasted delicious.
Once they were completely cool, I put some in the freezer – which is actually a good idea as it avoids me eating them all at once ;)
I also had one the next day at work and this once was actually perfect. As it was completely cool, it didn't stick at all on the muffin case!
So, this was last week! This morning, I had another one (one I froze – you follow me?) and again, it was perfect! I was a bit worried as I've never put a cake in the freezer but it was as good as the 1st day…well the 2nd to be correct. This recipe is a winner!
Ok, back to The Hairy Bikers. Last night, I was watching TV and came across their program. Good timing for me to find out more about them. What did I think??? Well, to be honest, I find them a bit irritating :s I didn't really enjoy their program. Especially the bit where they were in a middle of a field, pretending they were in a house ?!?! Also, I found them quite difficult to understand.
Anyway, their Cinnamon, Banana and Blueberry Muffin recipe was really good! That's all that matters to me ;)

Sustained slow heart rates in men of middle age or older who have coronary heart disease, hypertension, or pulmonary disease may be evidence of underlying disease of the cardiac pacemaker and of increased risk of sudden cardiac death. In a seven-year prospective study of 301 men, those whose mean heart rates did not rise as expected during a day's activities, who had a low peak rate response to standard exercise, and who showed little evidence of phasic variation in heart rate with respiration, and no evidence of the random abrupt sinus slowing that occurs with sighing, coughing, or straining, often had overt abnormalities of their cardiac pacemakers (eg, wandering atrial pacemaker, atrioventricular [A-V] junctional rhythm, "coronary sinus rhythm") or developed these later. They experienced significantly more sudden cardiac deaths than expected (P <.005).

Woods Struggles to a 77 at PGA Championship
Tiger Woods didn't get the start he wanted in the PGA Championship. The erstwhile No. 1-ranked player in the world carded a 7-over 77 in the opening round of the year's final major, now underway at Atlanta Athletic Club.
Starting on the 10th hole, Woods logged three birdies in five holes to get to 3-under. But things came unraveled on the difficult and long par-3 15th, which he double-bogeyed, one of three such misfires on the day.
In addition to the three doubles, Woods carded five bogeys Thursday, with only one birdie in his last 13 holes. His other double-bogeys came on the par-4 sixth and 18th holes.
"I'm not down, I'm angry right now," said Woods, a four-time winner of the championship who hasn't won since 2009 and is 14 strokes behind first-round leader Steve Stricker, who carded a stellar 7-under 63. Woods's 77 is his worst-ever round in the PGA Championship.
"I was having mechanical thoughts through those holes, and I figured I was 3-under, I can start letting it go now, and just play by instinct and feel," Woods said. "And [I] just screwed up my whole round. I'm not at that point where I can do that yet."
Here's what else Woods had to say in a post-round session with reporters.
TIGER WOODS: I thought I was playing well enough that I don't have to do that. I can just go out there and play and let it go and just play by feel and see the shot, hit the shot, feel it and I'm not at that point yet. My motor pattern is getting there, and I start fighting it, and I couldn't get it back. Obviously it's tough.
Q. How would you characterize 15 through 18?
TIGER WOODS: It was a tough stretch, yeah. It was a 4-iron and I was going to hit to the front edge or maybe just short of the green. I had to take something off a 3-iron and I didn't want to do that and I figured if anything, just hit a 4, easy chip, just putt it from there. And again, that's frustrating, because my shots don't shape like they used to. I don't shape the ball as much. I went ahead and as I said just play by feel and I just hit it, aimed too far right, and it didn't move.
And a lot of the fades out there, I did the same thing. I aimed left for a fade and it doesn't move; it moves about a yard or two and I'm used to having it cut a lot more than, and my draw used to move a lot more than that.
So it's hard for me right now to aim closer to flags or closer to where I want the ball to end up. I thought I was beyond that.
Q. Tiger, what's more frustrating, the score, or where you are in the process?
TIGER WOODS: Both. Both. Because I was 3-under early, and I said, you know what, every shot I hit up to that point were all mechanical thoughts, I put the club in a certain position, and I was doing that and I said, you know what, I'm feeling good. Let's just let it go. And it cost me the whole round.
Q. The parts of your body that are moving -- (Inaudible.)
TIGER WOODS: Well, it's just the same motor patterns. You tend to -- it's been a long list. That's one of the reasons why it takes so long to make improvements, make changes.
Q. What's perhaps the worst?
TIGER WOODS: It's not just one. I can't say just one, because it's a lot of different things. What causes the ball to shape more? It's a bunch of things. So it's just unfortunately I'm not at a point that I can let it go.
Q. You were saying -
TIGER WOODS: Absolutely. Absolutely. I wouldn't have done what I did today. That's what's frustrating because I'm in a major championship, it's time to score, time to play and time to let it go. And it cost me the round.
Q. You sound really -- a lot of times you talk about the positive, but you sound down.
TIGER WOODS: I'm not down. I'm really angry right now. So there's a lot of work I could use beyond that.
Q. Is there any downside -
TIGER WOODS: Well, I've been in this process before: I've been through it with Butch; I've been through it with Hank; and now I've been through it with Sean. I just thought, this is a major, and you peak for these events. And once you get to a major championship, you just let it fly, let it go. And I did and it cost me.
Q. So what adjustments are you going to make from now to tomorrow?
TIGER WOODS: It's going to be a lot. It's a laundry list.

The City of Cape Town's Traffic Services has launched new payment methods for motorists who are caught in Operation Reclaim roadblocks. Pamphlets detailing the new payment options were handed out to motorists at the launch of the new system yesterday, 20 October 2010. Generally, motorists do not carry large sums of cash on their person, so the City has ensured that when they are apprehended at an Operation Reclaim roadblock for outstanding traffic fines, they can use various payment methods to pay their fine. "These new payment methods make it much easier for motorists to pay their fines. Motorists are advised to pay their outstanding traffic fines before a warrant of arrest is issued for their non-attendance in court," said the Spokesperson for Traffic Services, Chief Inspector Merle Lourens. The following payment options now exist for fines issued within the City of Cape Town's jurisdiction, that are not yet past the summons payment date:
The following payment options exist for fines issued within the City of Cape Town, that are past the due/trial date, or for fines reduced at the Court:
Members of the public seeking further information on traffic fines can contact the City's call-centre on 0860 103 089.

Samsung Mobile Display (SMD) and Universal Display Corp. (UDC) have announced that the companies have entered into agreements under which Universal Display will license its OLED technologies and sell its proprietary materials to SMD for use in its line of state-of-the-art OLED display products. The agreements run through December 31, 2017.
The agreements announced cover an OLED Patent License Agreement and a Supplemental OLED Material Purchase Agreement. Under the license agreement, Universal Display has granted SMD license rights under various patents owned or controlled by Universal Display to manufacture and sell certain phosphorescent OLED display products. In consideration of the license grant, SMD has agreed to pay Universal Display a license fee over the term of the license agreement.
Under the supplemental agreement, SMD has agreed to purchase and Universal Display has agreed to supply a minimum amount of phosphorescent OLED material for SMD's use in the manufacture of licensed products, subject to Universal Display being able to supply sufficient quantities to meet SMD's requirements.
Building on their eleven-year relationship, SMD and Universal Display will continue to work closely to accelerate growth of the OLED display industry through the development of state-of-the-art, energy-efficient OLED products.
Soo In Cho, President and CEO of Samsung Mobile Display, said, "SMD is committed in leading the world display industry by offering high quality OLED products to its customers." Soo In Cho, added, "I believe the long-term agreement with Universal Display and the continued close partnership between the companies will provide a platform for successfully establishing the OLED products as the mainstream display products."
Steven V. Abramson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Universal Display, said, "As the world's leading developer and manufacturer of active-matrix OLEDs, Samsung Mobile Display has been a true visionary and leader in setting out a path to seize the tremendous potential for OLEDs, including through the extremely popular line of Galaxy S smart phones. SMD has been an excellent partner since we started working together over ten years ago." Steven added, "We are extremely pleased to continue this strong relationship with SMD to support them with state-of-the-art technologies and materials as they continue to develop and introduce exciting new OLED display products to the marketplace. Working even more closely, we look forward to realizing the full growth potential for the OLED display industry."

Dag! I think you're on afternoon now, so hope you've had a great primal day.
Thanks Pam, I did :) . Just knowing that I'll be home with my husband and kids for 11 days makes me happy! This afternoon I went to a Volvo dealer, ordering DH's new company car. He's having a V50. Now I hope we'll be able to sell his car (a Renault Espace) soon, 'cause we'll be buying new garden furniture with that money :cool: . We've seen some nice teak tables, I just love recycled teak!
Tomorrow will be a super relaxed day! DH and me are going to a sauna for 3 hours around lunchtime (champaign and snacks are included, I'll make sure to take some primal snacks for myself - it was a voucher he received as christmas gift). After that we'll come home to get dressed and then go to Antwerp for dinner at a Thai restaurant (we've been there once a few years ago and it was really good, I can eat almost anything on their menu if I just ask them to leave out rice and/or noodles). We'll be home late and kids are going to stay with my parents, I love to spend some quality time with my love [url=http://www.cosgan.de/smilie.php][img]http://www.cosgan.de/images/smilie/liebe/k040.gif[/img][/url] .
What I've had today:
B: coffee with full-fat cream
S: left-over beef sausage
L: left-over salmon and asparagus with some cream cheese, cup of full-fat Greek yogurt with teaspoon honey
D: roast beef with carrots and green peas
Sounds like you have a great day planned. I would love to get some teak furniture, but I can't afford it presently. Teak is expensive (at least it is here). Enjoy your time at the sauna!!
It's really expensive here too, Jenn; that's why we want to sell the car first, then we'll have the budget :rolleyes:
Hoi! Just dropped by to say hi - marked your journal for reading tomorrow :) Enjoy your spa day!
The sauna day and dinner DH sounds wonderful.. Have a great time girl!!
Hi Shamia!
Yesterday was a wonderful day :) . First DH and I had 3 hours in a private sauna with swimming pool and jacuzzi. We had a glass of champaign (or actually Cava, the Spanish version) each and some 'snacks': some cheese and salami (I had some) and crackers (I didn't touch those). I only had a sip of the cava, as it gives me heartburn (white wine also does that to my stomach).
We went to a really nice Thai restaurant and had a lovely dinner:
Starter: prawn soup: spicy but fresh at the same time
Main dish: duck with exotic herbs and spices: very nice! We got the rice separately, I had only about a teaspoon of it (just to taste)
Dessert: crème brulée made with coconut milk and pineapple juice with palmsugar (pretty primal :D ).
We shared a bottle of red wine and I also had enough water.
We went into Antwerp by tram, leaving the car on a park+ride parking outside the city, so I sobered up by the time we got to the car :rolleyes: .
I slept in until 9 o'clock this morning, kids are still at my parent's house. I'm going to pick them up in half an hour, but first I'm going to make some BBBBalls for me and 'primal nutella' for the kids :cool: . I'm still tweaking the recipe to get as close as possible to the "real thing" (although son Lex loves it already, youngest son Lou still asks why I can't buy Nutella anymore :p ).
I'll try to find some time to go through all journals later!
What a wonderful time with your honey. Fun, relaxing, adventurous time with loved ones is very primal. And that creme brulee sounds heavenly.
I have been playing with Winencandy's coconut-chocolate recipe, adding a little almond butter into the center(heavenly). My next experiment will be with hazelnut butter, which might be nutella-ish.
I see I forgot to mention we went for a pre-dinner drink in a bar yesterday evening and I had a glass of Ricard :cool: . I love Ricard (or pastis in general) once in a while because it reminds me of our picture-perfect holiday in Bretagne (Brittany) last year, so many lovely memories! We went 2 weeks during the Easter Holidays, rented a house at the Pink Granite Coast, did long hikes with our kids. We had so much luck with the weather; I used to drink a pastis almost every evening before dinner, sitting outside in the sun. It was the best holiday ever with our children.
Today has been a really easy day, had my nails done and went for grocery shopping.
B: coffee with double creme
L: chicory with chicken-egg-mayo salad
S: some grapes
D: sirloin steak with tomatoes, chicory and some fresh homemade fries.
Desert: 3 small frozen strawberries dipped in chocolate

A comprehensive win last night has got the press buzzing again, Chelsea are back in the title race.
So they say anyway, I think the jury is still out on that one. We have a lot of ground to make up, but finally a foray into the transfer market could help us achieve it.
As Yazz once famously sang, the only way is up.
After weeks of downtrodden postings and hiding from the world media, we are finally - hopefully - on the rise again.
Blackburn, not the most worthy opponents of course, could well have been the recovery we needed, the players may well have some belief back.
The heading of this piece shows how hard times have become in the past two odd months as a Chelsea fan.
Firstly nobody is sure now that we are capable of reviving our previous form - I'm pretty hopeful we can, and secondly I have resorted to one of the most overused cliches of FA Cup history to try and imply that the FA Cup will see us through our woes.

[HowTo] Add expires headers to cache static files using htaccess
Caching is one of the most important things to keep in mind when you are developing a website which is expected to get large amount of visitors. Most web developers neglect caching, some even don't know correct ways to implement it.
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to enable browser cache of static files simply using htaccess file. Basically server adds the Expires header to file-type you specify. Expires header will make sure the browser stores the file locally and use the same file until the time mentioned in expires header has passed.
Before we move ahead, please make sure apache's mod_expires is loaded. You can check it using phpinfo() under 'Loaded Modules' section. If you don't find it there, you can see this tutorial to enable mod_expires.
Copy the following code and paste it into .htaccess file in your website's root directory.
# Turn on the Expires engine ExpiresActive On # Expires after a month client accesses the file ExpiresByType image/jpeg A2592000 ExpiresByType image/gif A2592000 ExpiresByType image/png A2592000 ExpiresByType image/x-icon A2592000 ExpiresByType text/plain A2592000 # Good for one week ExpiresByType application/x-javascript M604800 ExpiresByType text/css M604800 ExpiresByType text/html M604800
ExpiresActive On turns on the expires engine. ExpiresByType image/jpeg tells server to check if MIME-type of file is image/jpeg. If yes, set the expires header.

In 1968, Craig and Pitts reported the novel and surprising finding that American female physicians committed suicide at about four times the expected frequency of American white women over the age of 25 years, and they calculated that the morbidity for affective disorder among American female physicians was about 60%. This calculation depended on several assumptions: (1) the morbidity of death by suicide for women with affective disorder that has been calculated in many follow-up studies (10% of deaths of women with affective disorder are by suicide, and since about 10% of women have affective disorder, only about 1% of deaths of women are by suicide) applies to female physicians as well; (2) there are two groups known to contain great numbers of suicides: persons with affective disorder and drug-alcohol abusers; however, they are really only one group by reason that drug-alcohol abuse with suicide really represents affective disorder with

The idea...
.through the creation of a computer simulation, I established a means by which any two major league baseball teams can be compared. For the purposes of this project, I used the San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The reason for my selection of the San Francisco Giants is that they are the team I follow. The reason for selecting the Los Angeles Dodgers is slightly different. Not only are the Giants and Dodgers long time rivals, but their statistics are easily comparable, where one team will not always dominate the other.
.the comparisons are based on the team batting statistics from the 2000 MLB Season. The use of these batting statistics allows for the establishment of a foundation for each team's batting averages based on the team's statistical breakdown of the exact number of singles, doubles, triples and homeruns. The teams have similar batting averages but contrastingly different statistical breakdowns. Given this information, the results are quite interesting. The exact numerical breakdown can be seen on the tree diagram. The diagram illustrates, numerically, exactly what happens when the program is run.
it works...
.the program was created entirely in Maple. The program uses random numbers to produce results based on the inputs given to it. The program selects a random number (throws a pitch), which determines a numerical output (in the strike zone or out of the strike zone). If the pitch is out of the strike zone, one of four things may happen: the pitch is a ball (four balls results in a walk), the pitch hits the batter, the pitch is a strike (out of the strike zone but swung at by the batter, three strikes results in an out), or the pitch is hit hit into fair territory. If the pitch is in the strike zone, one of two things may happen: the pitch is a strike (swung on and missed by the batter or watched, three strikes results in an out), or the pitch is hit into fair territory.
.once the pitch has been hit into fair territory a random number is again selected to decide if the result will be an out or a base hit. If the result is an out, the program stores it as such. After three outs, the computer breaks its cycle and ends the inning. If the result is a base hit, a random number will again be selected to decide if the base hit is a single, double, triple or homerun. The program tallies all runs scored at the end of one inning as well as the number or pitches thrown. The program's output shows runs scored, pitches thrown and the pitch-by-pitch result of the inning.
.with the establishment of this basic program a second program was created. The second program runs the basic program a given number of times, in most cases nine (with the exception of extra inning games) to simulate a complete game. The output yields the total number of runs and pitches for the game as well as a pitch-by-pitch account of the game.
.a third program was then created to run the second program. The purpose of the third program was to establish useful numerical results. The third program outputs the average runs and pitch count for 100 games.
...numerical breakdown...
...run production...
Minimum: 1.06
q1: 1.6, q2: 2.41, q3: 3.22
Maximum: 3.86
Line of best fit: y = -2.33+17.45x
Minimum: 1.31
q1: 1.71, q2: 2.51, q3: 3.19
Maximum: 3.94
Line of best fit: y = -2.31+17.63x
...pitch count...
League Championship Series...
.to make my simulation exciting, I set up a situation where the San Francisco Giants were playing the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Championship Series; the NLCS. The Giants carried a team batting average of 0.275 going into the series while the Dodgers carried a 0.265. As predicted, with a higher batting average, the Giants won the series; they did so in six games. The run production of the games can be seen in the graph below.
.the Giants' free agent acquisition during the season produced large increases in run production. The graph below represents the increase in run production from one season to the next. The boxes represent the first season and the crosses the second. To simplify the graphs, the runs are plotted against the numbers 1-16, representing the averages. The averages vary between .200 and .350 before the acquisition and .217 and .350 after. The Giants' acquisition increased the run production from the previous year by an average of 0.65 runs, shown in the graph on the left. If the Dodgers had been able to acquire the free agent, their increase in run production would not have been as productive as the Giants'. The Dodgers' run production would have increased by an average of only .093 runs. This is seen in the graph on the right. The blue boxes represent the Dodgers' run production prior to the acquisition and the black crosses represent the run production after.
.during the off-season, the San Francisco Giants, due to their lower payroll, were able to pick up a free agent, all-star with a .350 batting average. This bolstered their team average to 0.283. They again met the Dodgers in the National League Championship Series. This time, however, despite picking the new acquisition, the Dodgers beat the Giants in seven. The run production of the games can be seen in the graph below.
of results...
.in the first NLCS the results produced are exactly what I expected. The team with the higher batting average and what I considered to be a better statistical breakdown won the series. The numbers for the two teams were close enough to make the results interesting, but not close enough to disprove my hypothesis. However, in the seconds NLCS I was perplexed. The Giants free agent acquisition bolstered the team average to 0.283, 0.008 points higher than the previous year, while the Dodgers remained at 0.265. The Dodgers, however, were able to win the second NLCS in seven games. There are two peculiar aspects to the second NLCS. The first is that both the Giants and the Dodgers average run production decreased quite drastically from one year to the next, particularly strange given the Giants' free agent acquisition. The second thing is that the Dodgers managed to win the second NLCS despite having a lower run production average than the Giants for the seven game series. Also peculiar is the Giants inability to win the second NLCS despite having an average 0.018 points higher than the Dodgers. I believe the program's use of random numbers is to site for these peculiarities...
of program
.there are some aspects that are not included in the program. Some assumptions needed to be made for the program given time constraints and lack of in depth programming knowledge. The assumptions can be divided up into four categories:
|Offensive assumptions:
1) No mental errors
2) No base stealing
|Batter assumptions:
1) Statistics based on 2000 S.F. Giants and L.A. Dodgers
|Defensive assumptions:
1) No mental errors
2) No fielding errors
3) No special plays
|Pitcher assumptions:
1) No wild pitches
2) No pitcher fatigue
3) Uniform pitcher
.some of these assumptions may produce results that do not coincide with realistic baseball results. For example, the pitch count produced by my program is extremely low when compared to real life results. Through experimentation, though, I have noted that slight variations in the 'in the strike zone out of the strike zone' percentages could cause the pitch count to vary up or down by as much as fifteen pitches. The program's use of random numbers as a means for producing results could also allow for unrealistically high or low outputs. However, in defense of the outputs produced by my programs, if I wanted the outputs to be identical to reality, I would have gone and bought a video game.

In this report, ITIF argues that supporting the deployment of faster broadband networks will be crucial to enabling next-generation Web-based applications and services that will play important roles in improving quality of life and boosting economic growth. While getting broadband service to the Americans who lack it is an important policy target, next-generation broadband will deliver a wave of new benefits to consumers, society, businesses, and the economy.

we are using the report viewer on thin client machine with no hard-drive.
Is there any way to change the default path of the viewer's temp directory to another path?
(for instance - map it to a network drive)
Hi Dana,
If you are talking about the c:\Windows\Team directory where Crystal creates the temporary rpt files before displaying the report then you need to change the system's default Temp directory location so that all the application can reflect to the changes as this configuration is taken by Crystal from the system.
Hope that helps.
Hi Dana.
Since you are using the thin clients, you will need to make changes on the main server. In such scenario kindly make sure that you have administrative permissions on that server to make changes in the Environment Variables os the system
did not help..
See if this helps,
1. Right click on My Computer and click on Properties. In the resulting dialog click on the Advanced tab
2. Click on the button near the bottom labeled Environment Variables
3.You may see both TMP and TEMP listed in the section labeled User variables for (account). That's the common location; each different login account is assigned its own temporary location.
4.You may see both TMP and TEMP listed in the section labeled User variables for (account). That's the common location; each different login account is assigned its own temporary location.
Personally, I prefer to have a single location for the entire system. So if TMP and TEMP are present in the top list, I click on each and then click on Delete. However you can simply edit them, as we're about to edit the System copies, if you prefer
5.If you scroll down in the bottom list labeled System Variables you'll find TMP and TEMP again. Click on one, and then press the Edit button:
6.In the Variable value: edit box you can now specify a path to a directory that Windows and many other programs should use for temporary files
Please let us know the updates.
Prasad Kanchan
The temp file location used with the CrystalReportViewer control for the web can be changed through the registry. This might work in your case too.
- Open the registry editor by going to Start > Run. Type in regedit.exe
- Click OK
- Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Crystal Decisions\11.5\Report Application Server\Viewer
- If this key does not exist you will need to create it.
- Create a new string value called CrystalImageDir. Then, set the value to a new location for the temporary image files.
- This can be another location on the server, or a UNC file server.
- If this is a secure environment you'll need to make sure the Network Service or ASPNET account has access to the file server.

I have used the colorless formula since it came out and decided to try the professional version. It was colder quicker but it did not last as long nor did it bring the same level of pain relief. I am going back to the non professional colorless version. the consistency is more like a thick lotion so that part of the new formula is better. My husband is disabled and it made his muscles have spasms with the extra coldness in it and made him have more pain.
Order came on time as expected!
My clients love getting a sample of Biofreeze to go home with. The cooling effect really loosens up tightness and relieves soreness.
I swear by Bio freeze use it everyday in my practice and my clients love it

The term 'Spa' is derived from the name of the town Spa in Belgium and is associated with water treatment. Spa resorts usually offer various water treatments through the curative powers of mineral water. In earlier days, it was believed that bathing in hot or cold springs could cure various ailments and was also known as medicinal bathing. But after the American Revolution, the spa industry began to gain popularity. Then there are day spas in Edgewater Park that are business establishments which offer professionally administered personal care treatment such as massages and facials. A medical spa is a term that describes any medical office in Edgewater Park that operates under the supervision of a licensed health care professional, and offers non-surgical cosmetic medical treatments.
Whereas, 'Sauna' is a facility in a small room or house, designed as a place to experience dry or wet heat sessions. In a typical sauna session in Edgewater Park, participants can sit or lie down with the room temperature typically netween 70 degree Celsius and 100 degree Celsius. This promotes sweating and in turn induces relaxation. In earlier days, sauna featured a fireplace where stones were heated to a high temperature and water was thrown over it to produce steam. However, later they started to use metal woodstove with a chimney.

Many of the catechumens who signed the Book of the Elect in St. Patrick's Cathedral on the First Sunday of Lent will respond to an invitation from Timothy Cardinal Dolan that day, and return to the Cathedral this coming Sunday as newly initiated Catholics. They will join Cardinal Dolan for the Neophyte Mass at 10:15 a.m.
After Mass, three youngsters will present to Cardinal Dolan a collection of "Spiritual Bouquets" from children in parish religious education programs all over the Archdiocese. From what I could see as the bouquets came in to the Archdiocesan Catechetical Office, the Cardinal is going to be one of the most prayed-for prelates in the Catholic Church.
I thought about these newly baptized and young Catholics today as I attended a Mass of Christian Burial for a 93 year-old woman whose son is a good friend of mine. In his homily, the pastor talked about this lovely lady's graciousness, a quality that served her in her prime and later, when she had to endure the infirmities of old age and weakness.
I hope that in days and years to come, our neophytes and young Catholics will experience graciousness from the Church — meaning us, its members. That's a quality that is not always apparent, particularly when we disagree with someone else or even among ourselves. The blogosphere is evidence of that.
Father Jim Martin, S.J., posted his take on this the other day in the "In All Things" blog at America Magazine. You may laugh or cringe…or both. However, it is worth taking to heart, especially these days when we want to be examples of graciousness to the neophytes and young Catholics in our midst. Thanks, Father Jim.
